BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE - Creating Large dialog overhead in Batch run

All,
I have a program that is calling the BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE repeatedly in a batch job.
Basis is complaining that it is creating a lot of dialog transactions that is creating too much overhead and draining system resources.
The program calls the bapi and does a committ /wait after each call.
Is there some switch, flag, etc. that can be set in the BAPI parms (I could not find one) or something that can be set in the batch job, etc. that will eliminate this.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
Scott

Try BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT after each call if the bapi is success.
Example
call function 'BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE'
    exporting
      salesdocument    =
      order_header_inx =
    tables
      return           =
      order_item_in    =
      order_item_inx   =
call function 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
      exporting
        wait = 'X'.

How do I create an "executable" for users to run calcs?

I need to create an executable that users can launch. I would like it to 1) log in as a "test" user that I have set up in Native Directory, 2) select app/database then 3) launch a series of calcs. I had something set up previously in an earlier version of Essbase but I can't get it to run on Essbase 11.
Here's what I had previously:
Login "servername" "TestUser" "Password" ;
Select "App" DataBase;
RunCalc 2 "Calc 1" ;
RunCalc 2 "Calc 2" ;
RunCalc 2 "Calc 3" ;
Maybe the user's machines don't have all the files needed to run this? It's just flashes and doesn't give me any messages. I'm stumped.

If you are using 11.1.2.1 you would need to set the execution based off the startESSCMD.bat/sh. Here is an example. Check that the startESSCMD script works first so you can get the command line up.
Does startESSCMD work on the machine?

I have checked Metalink but can't find this error there either. Based on examples on OTN I have tried to create the LOV window manually but it does not work as expected:
1) The window is not empty when opened - i.e. data has been retrieved.
2) The filtering does not work.
3) The selected value does not update the Input Form.
I have pasted the code below in case anyone can point me in the right direction to work around the Jdeveloper error. However, I think Jdeveloper should create the LOV window correctly.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks for the response. OK... This is the first day I have been able to get back to the problem.
My system I am running Photoshop on is a Power Mac G4, AGP Graphics ATY Rage 128Pro chip set 16MB VRAM LCD 1280x1024 32-bit color, 500MHz, 1.75GB of memory, 1 MB L2 Cache, 100 MHz Bus Speed. I had installed the latest security update and repaired the permissions the day the problem started.
Now to day I started the system and went in and created a Guest Account. I logged into the guest account and started Photoshop. Low and behold it worked just fine. So I logged out of guest and logged into my main user account And started Photoshop. Wouldn't you know it.... It works just fine. I can open any file I want with now problems.
I got to thinking after I had done all of this that I wished I had tried to open a file in Photoshop today prior to creating the guest account to see if it still had the problem in my main user account.
I did not change anything else on the system and all seems to work fine now. So at his point I am really not sure what the problem was.
Again thanks for taking the time to respond to this issue.

RPAS MFP workbook formatting after batch run

First, let me apologize as I am new to RPAS.
During our weekly batch run, workbooks are generated, but we must manually reformat the workbooks, all the tabs and profiles and is very time consuming.
Where would I start my education to understand how to automate this part of the process?
Thanks
G

Hi AP,
Welcome to SDN!!!
Theorethically it should work:
Create a structure in rows with 2 selections, Text1 & Text2; a structure in columns with 3 selections, Col1, Col2 & Col3. All selections are just having provided descriptions, without any chars or KFs.
Using cell editor you can define all needed formulas and descriptions for particular cells.
Best regards,
Eugene

30EA3 - multiple errors in "Create Tablespace" dialog box

I have noticed the following errors in the "Create Tablespace" dialog box (in the DBA view).
1) In the "File Specifications" tab, if you try to use a period in the file name (for example "data01.dbf") , you get an error message "Validation Failed: Name DATA01.DBF contains an illegal character."
2) The tool is automatically changing the case of the file name to all upper case. You can work around this by enclosing the file name in quotes, but you shouldn't have to do that.
Overall, I've been real happy with the product, and that Oracle keeps improving it.

I've also run into this, recently, in version 3 on Windows 7 (db is version 10g on Solaris 10/SPARC64). Although the error message is now "Name TABLESPACENAME.DBF contains an illegal character." Also found the described capitalization overriding what user types in.

How to "roll back" SAP APO PPDS planning batch run from infeasible batch mid-point to before start of planning batch run?

Hi Experts,
We are investigating if any SAP customer that implemented SAP APO PPDS has ever attempted to establish a "roll back" of the SAP APO PPDS created supply plan to a defined point before the start of the SAP APO PPDS planning batch run?
We have a situation where - in the middle of the planning batch run - randomly or intermittent the batch run hangs or runs a step for multiple hours that normally, at most days, takes only a few minutes to run. In a situation like this, the supply plan is not in a state where customer sales orders can be promised (using GATP CTP) or planned orders can be converted to production orders and published to SAP ECC, etc since the plan may be capacity infeasible or simply partial or incomplete.   To not hold the business operations hostage to wait resuming operations (promise customer sales orders, convert and release and execute orders to transfer, deliver, produce, or purchase) for hours or days, we need to find a way back to the original plan right before the nightly PPDS batch planning job started.
We already close all the queues from ECC to APO, thus, no CIF traffic from ECC to APO. We also shut down the customer sales order feed into ECC as normal process for duration of the APO PPDS batch planning run. Thus, functionally, we are theoretically in a situation to simply go back to a PPDS and active planning version save prior to the run. Yet, many more technical and BASIS-related questions remain on how to roll back to a state where the plan was not compromised.
This inquiry is to learn if any other SAP customer has ever established a process to roll back SAP APO PPDS to a previous point in time supply plan to resume operations? Whatever the reasons are, be it after a failed batch run, or any time during the normal interactive plan day.
Additional information about our design and plan:
1. We have a two year horizon supply plan in PPDS
2. We only publish to ECC 14 days worth of planned orders, stock transfer requirements, and purchase requirements
3. We convert planned orders to production orders and release production orders in ECC 2 days before first operation starts
4. We convert PR's to PO's and STR's to STO's in ECC 2 days before execution (ship or submit to vendor)
Any indication where a SAP customer has developed and uses a process to roll back an SAP APO PPDS- planned supply plan to an earlier point in time or version would be helpful to know.

Hi Manimaran,
Saving in Simulation means in DS board when you click on save it provides you option to save sim version or adopt to active version. If you copy to inactive version you cannot copy back trasaction data specially PPDs orders back to active version again while if you save in simulation you can adope it to active version at any point of time. YOu can adopt simulation version changes to active version using T-code /SAPAPO/CDPSS0
Copying to active version means you copy data from version 000 to some other active version while here results are kept simulation,

MRP - Transaction WC27 Batch Run for MRP

Each day we run WC27 as a background program. We have it configured to define the scope of planning (all of the plants that we want MRP to run). We also have a user exit key. The user exit parameters, is a set group of specific MRP controllers. Materials (part numbers) that have this specific MRP controller should run the MRP control parameters for Scheduling = 2.
The other parameters are as follows:
Processing Key = NETPL
Create Purchase Req = 1
Schedule lines =3
Create MRP list = 1
Planning Mode = 3
We currently see each day, materials (part numbers) that the routing was changed to a different work center using CEWB. However, when the background job runs for MRP (WC27), it does not update the planned orders with the new routing work center change for the material (part number) that has an MRP controller specific for the scheduling parameter set to 2. Why would our MRP run not change the planned order? If, I run MD02, it does update the planned orders. So why is not changing it in the batch run? It is causing issues with our end users running CM25 for a specific work center.

Hi,
a.     Please check if the material in question has the Planning file entry u2013 through MD21
b.     If the planning file entry is not seen, create Planning file entries using MD20 or MDAB
c.     Run MRP (MD01 or WC27) with Planning mode as 3 or 2, and check if your changes have got effected into the Planned orders.
When we use Net-change planning at the Plant level, the system checks for the presence of Planning file entriesu2026 and whichever material has undergone some changes relevant for MRP, and thus having the planning file entries are covered during the MRP run.
Workcenter or Routing changes do not result in creating Planning file entry.
At the same time, when we execute planning for the material level (MD02), the planning run does not refer to the Planning file entry and hence the planning run changes the Planned order master data.
Kindly refer to the definition below..
u2018In net change planning only those materials are planned for which the net change planning indicator in the planning file has been set as a planning file entry. The system usually sets the indicator automatically as soon as a change is made to the material that is relevant to MRP.
The following changes cause an entry in the planning file to be made:
u2022     Changes to stock, if these change the stock/requirements situation of the material
u2022     Creation of purchase requisitions, purchase orders, planned orders, sales requirements, forecast requirements, dependent requirements or reservations
u2022     Changing to fields that are relevant to the planning run for these receipts and issues or in the material master
u2022     Deleting receipt or issue quantities
u2022     If you have changed the settings of an MRP type, a lot-sizing procedure or a purchasing department processing time in Customizing, the materials that are affected by these changes thus have no planning file entry and are not included automatically in the net change planning. To enable the changes made to take effect, you choose regenerative planning in the initial screen of the planning run or make an entry manually in the planning file.
Please refer to the links u2013

Lightroom creating large cr_sdk_*.tmp files

I'm using Lightroom 4.1 RC2 on 64bit Windows 7. My C: drive is an SSD and only has about 8GB free. My catalog and Lightroom cache are both configured to live on my F: drive however, so I wouldn't have thought this would be a problem.
What I'm finding is that after an hour or so of editing (in the Develop module only), I run out of space on my C: drive which causes Lightroom to exit, and other general system instability (eg Windows Explorer dies). It looks like Lightroom is creating large files in my temp directory (C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp) called eg cr_sdk_03182513.tmp.
What are these files for and why do they get so big? Can I configure Lightroom to store them elsewhere (ideally without relocating my temp dir)?

Thanks Dorin. I'd performed a quick search of the forum but only found a few comments vaguely alluding to the problem, I missed these two threads.
I realised I could relocate my tmp directory but figured the behaviour looked more like a bug in LR than sensible use of the temp dir. Sounds like I don't have much choice other than to live with it for now; I'll move my temp folder to a different drive and hope it gets addressed in an upcoming release.
Thanks again,
Chris

Extend time stream by batch run/job

Hello!
We had the problem that our time stream did run out. So our PLA was not extended and our complete planning crashed.
Is there a possibility (e.g. report) to have a repetitive job/batch run which will calculate and extend our time streams automatically?
Thanks for every help and hint...it´s important...
Martin

Problem was solved with the following support notes:
1130778     Automatically generating planning calendar periods
1134662     Periods are generated with incorrect time
1245264     Automatic updation of timestream
1319790     /SAPAPO/TIMESTREAM_UPDATE doesn't respect input parameters
But actually the Z-Report, which should not be created, is quite helpful.

This web site must be created on a server that is running Microsoft Sharepoint Foundation. Please choose another Location

Hi all, I installed microsoft sharepoint designer 2010. It was working perfectly up until yesterday when I create a new site, it gave me an error that said " This web site must be created on a server that is running Microsoft Sharepoint Foundation.
Please choose another Location " Now I can't create any sharepoint site and it freaks me out. I tried repairing, unistalling and reinstalling but still i get the same message.

You have to have SharePoint 2010, either SharePoint Foundation 2010 or SharePoint Server 2010, installed somewhere in order to be able to create SharePoint sites with SharePoint Designer 2010. SharePoint Designer 2010 is a client-side product, which is usually
installed on end user machines and then used to connect to a server-side edition of SharePoint 2010 (either of the two I mentioned above) to modify the SharePoint sites hosted on that server-side product.
It is possible to install SharePoint Foundation 2010 on a client operating system (Windows 7), but it is much more likely that a production environment will involve installing SharePoint Foundation 2010 or SharePoint Server 2010 on a server operating system
(Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2008 R2) on a central server that can be accessed by multiple users.
If you are looking to do testing, you can either install Foundation on Windows 7, or use a virtualization product such as Hyper-V, VMware Workstation, Virtual Box, to name a few, to build a virtual server hosting SharePoint.
You aren't going to be able to create SharePoint sites with SPD until you have SharePoint Foundation 2010 or SharePoint Server 2010 somewhere for it to connect to, sorry.

UTF-8 Encoding errors during nightly batch runs

My boss recently tasked me with researching (and hopefully resolving) why our XML frequently has UTF-8 encoding errors.
I've been in the IS world for less than a year now so please bear with me when it comes to terms, data flow, etc.
Overview:
Our Oracle DB spits out XML for the nightly batch runs into a file location, lets say C:\xPression\CustomerData\Certificate.xml. The XML is in Courier New font but some characters make their way into the XML but arent supported. The big one is the elongated ' - ' character. Just one instance of this and the entire XML fails.
When the batch job is run sometimes there are encoding errors (¿, ¡, -, etc) and every morning I have to come in, finding the invalid character, fix it and have the job re-run.
I want to know if there's a way so that the XML that comes out is always in the Courier New font, or is there a way to convert it.

I want to know if there's a way so that the XML that comes out is always in the Courier New font, or is there a way to convert it.
First thing first, an XML file is a text file, it doesn't have a "font" but an encoding.
The font is the graphical representation of characters and it is related to whatever client tool you're using to view the content, not to the content itself.
That being said, a lot of fonts do not support the full range of unicode characters so you may get replacement characters in some case.
We're missing some information to provide an answer :
- what's the database version?
- what's the character set of the database?
- how are you generating and writing the XML to the file ? UTL_FILE, dbms_xslprocessor, dbms_xmldom?
If the file is generated using UTF-8 encoding then the issue might just be that you're not using an UTF-8-enable editor.

Hi
My answer is pure assumption.
Please check the following OSS notes
Note 758810 - BAPI_PO_CHANGE vendor batch and batch not visible
Note 1230268 - Field Vendor Batch never filled for PO BAPIs
Please take help from BASIS and SAP, before implementing the OSS note
