BAPI to upload customer class characteristics(XD02)

Hi,
My requirement is to upload Class Characteristics and its values for a customer in XD02.
XD02- > Extras -> Classification
I have founded a few bapi's but its not working. I tried the below options.
BAPI_CLASS_CREATE
BAPI_OBJCL_CREATE
If someone who worked on similar requirement ... Pls reply.
Thanks
Hari

BAPI_OBJCL_CREATE must work fou you
look at:
[BAPI BAPI_OBJCL_CREATE|BAPI BAPI_OBJCL_CREATE]
[Characteristics value not assigned by BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE;
don't forget BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT after this FM

BAPI to upload customer advance

Hi,
We have to upload customer advance and holdback amounts against particular RV Document.
The T-code being used is F-04.
I want to know if there is any BAPI to do the same because I have tried doing BDC for that, but the line items are not visible during runtime against which I have to take the advance.
Please help.
Thanks,

Which Bapi is available for uploading Customer Invoice and Payments in SAP

Dear Friends.
I want to upload Customer Invoices and Incoming Payments in the System.
Currently i have written a BDC-Session Program to Upload this data.
I have took the recording of tcode f-22 for Invoices, f-27 for credit memo and f-28 for payments and developed the required BDC program.
Its working fine.
Since the Volume of the data is huge .. ie around 50,000 daily, it takes too much time.
Also i am not able to have a proper error log.
I would like to know from you, whether there is any bapi available to upload this data (invoices,credit memo and payments).
OR is there any other faster and proper error log maintaining scenario available.
I appreciate for all your helps and informations.
Thanks
Kuna.

Hi,
could u please send me the f-28 upload program.
Thanks in advance.

Problem Using Custom Classes in UCCX8.5.1 SU3

Dear All,
My team is facing problem in using Java custom classes for UCCX 8.5.1 SU3
The problem is that we have created some conditional prompts for currency in different languages, our custom java class contains two mathods GetEnglishString(parameter set) and GetUrduString(parameter set). We are able to use/call both methods one by one and both at same time in CCX Editor and validate the script successfully but when we set the script as application it failed.
We tried to use both methods one by one and found that script with GetEnglishString is working ok but when we place GetUrduString (alone as well) MIVR logs say that method is unknown altough CCX Editor does not give us any error. We triend to restard Administration and Engine Services several time but to no avail. If somebody know the reason and solution kindly share it ASAP.
Regards
Kashif Surhio

Hi
In that case I would double check you have uploaded the file, and restart the server completely. In testing we found that restarting the engine didn't always reload the classes.

Accessing custom classes from JSP

Hi Guys,
I am having some problems accessing my custom classes from my JSP.
1) I've created a very simple class, SimpleCountingBean that just has accessors for an int. The class is in the package "SimpleCountingBean". I compiled this class locally on my laptop and uploaded the *.class file to my ISP.
2) I've checked my classpath and yes, the file "SimpleCountingBean/SimpleCountingBean.class" is located off of one of the directories listed in the classpath.
3) When I attempt to use this class in my JSP, via the following import statement:
import "SimpleCountingBean.*"
I get the following compile error
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: SimpleCountingBean/SimpleCountingBean
I'm pretty sure that my classpath is properly setup because when I purposely garble the import statement, I get the "package not found" compile error.
Do I need to upload some other files in addition to the class file? Any suggestions would of course be appreciated.
Sonny.

Trying to get some clearer view.. so don't mind..
So you uploaded all your .jsp files into your account which is:
home/sonny
and it compiles and work. But custom classes doesn't seems to be working, where did you place your classes?
From my knowledge of tomcat, classes are normally placed in, in this case:
home/sonny/web-inf/classes
Maybe it differs from windows enviroment to *nix enviroment.. well, I'm just saying out so if its not the case.. don't mind me.

BAPI function create Customer master(T-code XD01)??

Hi All,
i want to create BDC program using BAPI function create Customer master(upload customer master),but i do not know which BAPI function for create Customer master.
Does anyone know,please tell me which BAPI function i can use?
Thanks.
Van Dung

Hi Amit Gujargoud,
I can use LSMW upload the data from legacy system to sap system., but my manager he did not want to use LSMW.He wants to use BAPI function for upload customer master.
I saw this BAPI function create customer master : BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1,
BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA,
it is not enough field for input data.
example : if i want input : customer code,company code, Sales organiration,Distribution channel,Division.
So This BAPI function have not paramaters input this field.
Thanks for your answer
Van Dung.

LSMW - Upload customer data (KNA1)

Hi,
I'm trying to upload customer data from a legacy system using buisness object KNA1 and method CREATEFROMDATA1 (BAPI). At first I discovered that to be able to use business object KNA1 I had to generate an ALE interface in transaction BDBG.
My problem is that when I try to "Maintain Structure Relations" I get following error message:
No target structures could be found
Message no. /SAPDMC/LSMW_OBJ_030001
Shouldn't it be possible to do it this way?
I prefer to use the BAPI method compare to Batch input for following reasons:
- Better performance
- I don't have to think of screen sequences. For example can different account groups mean different screens.
Thanks for help,
Hans

Hans, did you ever come back to this problem and see if you could come up with a solution?
I am facing a similar problem while trying to upload Business Partners into our CRM system. Unfortunately for me, the batch input recording option is not viable, as that takes too long (~95 days to load our data, and can't be run in background). I have been told that I should look to use a BAPI, but am getting errors when trying to specify the field mapping.
Cheers,
Andrew

I have a movieclip (instance name preload), inside of it, I have another movieclip (bar) ... what i'm trying to do is a preloader for external files... i have a custom class and i what to manipulate my movieclip preload from it... you know verify the progress of the load:
Inside my class a have this function
public function loadProgress(e:ProgressEvent):void {
            percent=e.bytesLoaded/e.bytesTotal*100;
            rutaDos.preload.bar.scaleX=percent;
rutaDos is a reference to the stage... it works, I'm sure of it... the problem is:rutaDos.preload.bar.scaleX; I upload the files but it doesn't verify the progress of the load.
thanks for the help

the complete class is:

            myTween.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onTransitionFinish);
        public function onTransitionFinish(e:Event):void {
            //MovieClip(root).gotoAndPlay(2);
            //rutaDos.ext.gotoAndStop(2)
            /*var my_parent:MovieClip=parent.parent as MovieClip;
            my_parent.nextSection=2;
            my_parent.gotoAndStop(my_parent.nextSection);*/

            if (bg==true) {
                rutaDos.gotoAndStop(14);
I try to use an empty movieclip to load a external swf (instance name: ext) this way:
var transicion:Transiciones=new Transiciones(this, "welcome.swf",true,ext);
The external swf loads correctly, but when it is loading (i mean de progress load), the preload doesn't work....

Read Document Class Characteristics Values (Class Type 017)

Hi Gurus,
I want to read values of Document Class Characteristics (Class Type 017).
Is there any Functional Module available for this?
Best regards,
Abir.

Hi ,
Use this BAPI   BAPI_DOCUMENT_GETDETAIL2 to get the details of class and char values for particular documents.
kindly enter the data about the DIR and mark the ent
DOCUMENTTYPE                  DRW
DOCUMENTNUMBER            2000
DOCUMENTPART                 000
DOCUMENTVERSION            00
GETOBJECTLINKS                       X
GETCOMPONENTS
GETSTATUSLOG
GETLONGTEXTS                          X

Here whatever marked as a 'X' BAPI will return the values for particular DIR.
Use TCODE SE37 for executing this BAPI or get the help of your technical person.

Unit testing: Mocking custom classes with null

Hi,
I was trying to save time on testing the usual hashCode() and equals() methods so I got this class: http://www.cornetdesign.com/files/BeanTestCase.java.txt
I altered it a bit as it wasn't handling standard classes only primitives.
Anyway, I got to the point to include my own custom classes.
I have to create a 'mock' object for my class properties, e.g. field.getType().newInstance()
Fine, but there are some tricky instances. E.g. when I'd like to create an instance of java.net.URL which takes a URL as String in the constructor.
This is almost impossible to automate as it has to be a valid URL format not just a random String.
So, I thought I set them to null, e.g.
assertTrue(o1.equals(o2))
as both properties are null.
Is this the right approach you think?
I welcome any suggestions.
My initial idea was to save enormous amount of time automating the hashCode() and equals() method tests as they took so long to write.
Thanks

Trouble would be that you are only testing the null branch of the equals or hashCode, which typically have to check for null, then if not null do an actual comparison.
It's worth the effort of learning to use a package such as EasyMock to create and program mock objects. It's tidiier if you are progamming to interfaces, however, but it will mock ordinary objects, though probably not if they are final.
What you could do is to define a factory interface, and have a table of anonymous classes wich generate various types. In effect create a library of dumy object factories.
Something like:
private interface DummyGenerator {
      Object generate(int idx);
      Class<?> getType();
private final static DummyGenerator[] generatorsTable {
    new DummyGenerator() {
           public Object generate(int idx) {
             return new URL("http://nowhere.com/" + idx);
     public Class<?> getType() { return URL.class; }
.. generators for other classes
private final static Map<Class<?>, DummyGenerator> genMap = new HashMap<Class<?>, DummyGenerator>(generatiorsTable.length);
static {
    for(DummyGenerator gen : generatorsTable)
        genMap.put(gen.getType(), gen);
}

Need help calling and looping custom classes

Hi, I am writing a code with custom classes in it and another program that calls upon all of the classes in the first program. I can get the second one (L6) to call upon and execute all of the classes of the first (Foreign). However, I need the second one to loop until quit is selected from the menu on Foreign and I can't seem to figure out how to do it. Here are the codes:
L6:
public class lab6
public static void main(String[] args)
Foreign camount = new Foreign();
camount = new Foreign();
camount.get();
camount.print();
camount.intake();
camount.convert();
camount.vertprint();
System.out.println(camount);
Foreign:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Foreign
private String country;
private int choice;
private float dollars;
private float conversionValue;
private float conversionAmount;
public Foreign()
country = "null";
choice = 0;
dollars = 0;
conversionValue = 0;
conversionAmount = 0;
public void get()
     Scanner Keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
          System.out.println("Foreign Exchange\n\n");
System.out.println("1 = U.S. to Canada");
System.out.println("2 = U.S. to Mexico");
System.out.println("3 = U.S. to Japan");
System.out.println("4 = U.S. to Euro");
System.out.println("0 = Quit");
System.out.print("\nEnter your choice: ");
choice = Keyboard.nextInt();
public void print()
System.out.print("\nYou chose " + choice);
public void intake()
     Scanner Keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
          if (choice >= 1 && choice <= 4)
switch (choice)
          case 1: System.out.println("\nU.S. to Canada");
                    conversionValue = 1.1225f;
                    country = ("Canadian Dollars");
                    break;
          case 2: System.out.println("\nU.S. to Mexico");
                    conversionValue = 10.9685f;
                    country = ("Mexican Pesos");
break;
          case 3: System.out.println("\nU.S. to Japan");
                    conversionValue = 118.47f;
                    country = ("Japanese Yen");
break;
          case 4: System.out.println("\nU.S. to Euro");
                    conversionValue = 0.736377f;
                    country = ("European Union Euros");
break;
               System.out.print("\nEnter U.S. dollar amount: ");
          dollars = Keyboard.nextFloat();
public void convert()
conversionAmount = conversionValue * dollars;
public void vertprint()
System.out.println("\nCountry = " + country);
System.out.println("Rate = " + conversionValue);
System.out.println("Dollars = " + dollars);
System.out.println("Value = " + conversionAmount);
public String toString()
String line;
line = "\n" + country + " " + conversionValue + " " + dollars + " " + conversionAmount;
return line;
I appreciate any help anyone can give me. This is driving me crazy. Thanks.

1. first you need to write method to get choice value from Foreign class.
simply add this method.
   public class Foreign {
      // ... Add this
      public int getChoice() {
         return choice;
   }2. Then in your main, you can obtain with previos method.
public static void main(String[] args) {
   Foreign camount = new Foreign();
   // remove this. you alredy create an instance in last statement.
   //camount = new Foreign();
   int choice = 0;
   do {
      camount.get();
      choice = camount.getChoice();
      // your process...
   } while (choice != 0);
}
