Batch Load / Populate BPS User_defined Variables?

Is it possible to load/populate a user-defined variable via an ABAP program or other method?
I have a variable used in BPS which contains all of the customers for a specific user.  It is very tedious to load them in three at a time using the variable screen for the planning level.
Thank you for your answers.
Andy

  • The wonderful world of Batch Loading - what's going on?

    Hi,
    I'm having an issue with the batch loader. When I load a file using batch loader and the the same file manually executing the workflow I get two different datasets at the import stage. I have a single import script and it seems that it doesn't execute properley when the file is loaded via the batch loader but does when I perform a manual import. I can't think of any logical reason for this. The script is getting executed but only partially when the batch load is run. I make use of a FDM temporary variable in the script RES.PvarTemp1, and this is the only thing I can think of that may be failing. Do these work when the batch load is run? Has anyone else experienced similar problems with the batch loader and import script execution?
    Any ideas are very welcome :-)

    Is the iPhoto icon showing crossed out?  Like this?
    When you shot down your Mac, it may have installed a system update, that had been downloaded automatically.
    Which version of MacOS X are you currently running?  The newest MacOS X version 10.10.2 requires iPhoto 9.6.

  • Batch loading with sdordf.jar.

    Hi Guys
    I have just tried a batch load with sdordf.jar.
    In my first attempt there was a mistake in the n3 file.
    After correcting the file and re running I now get the error.

    Hi Mellie
    After having a little break I have installed the jena patch during which I had to drop the network and model created before.
    I tried running a batch load as before but I still get the error message saying the temporary table already exists.
    I tried the clean up routine as suggested but get the error.

  • How to populate a text variable

    Hi All,
    I need to populate a text variable based on the value of a characteristic in the query. Since the value of the characteristic and the text variable value is not the same I cannot use replacement path. So here I have to use customer exit.
    My problem is how to get the value of the characteristic in the customer exit.
    If the characteristic is used in a variable I know how to get the value of the characteristic (We can get it from i_t_var_range). But here I am not using the characteristic in any variable. So how will I get the characteristic value in the customer exit.
    Any useful help will be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Anand

    Hi Srini,
    Based on my above scenario suppose that there are only two month values in the cube, say January and March. So in the column side there will be only two column for each key figure, if only month characteristic is there in the column side, one for January and the second for March. Here I want to populate "First" as value for text variable where January is there and "Third" as value of text variable where March is there.
    Here you have mentioned "you can read all available values in cube and pass required value/text to text variables". Here how do I write a code to read the month values from the cube, that is my question.
    If it is there in some variable I could have got it from "i_t_var_range". But as per user requirement I cannot use a variable restriction on the month and they want to use this text variable across the queries(which I am not creating, user themselves are creating the queries) based on their requirement.
    Thanks,
    Anand

  • Best practice guide for Batch Load utility in Oracle UCM.

    Hi,
    Is there any best practice guide for Oracle UCM Batch Loader utility.
    We are looking for information regarding batch size in terms of number and size of contents. Also is there any loading time standards considering the contents are uploaded in filesystem where filestore provider is configured?
    Thanks,
    Krishnendu

    Hi ,
    There are no specific set of steps / practices for batch loading contents to ucm . It would be very much dependent on how many contents does the user have to load to UCM and how well the server is configured in terms of performance .
    You can get more details from the following documentation link : http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21043_01/doc.1111/e10792/c02_settings009.htm
    Thanks,

  • IStore Images Batch Load Issue

    Hello All,
    We have been working on setting up a Batch load for product images for our iStore and have run into an issue. First off, this is more of a batch association since we are using already existing items.
    The issue we are having is that we are using APPS.IBE_LOGICALCONTENT_GRP.SAVE_DELETE_LGL_CTNT API to tie the images to the items. The process runs without error, but on inspection of the iStore page, the link to the image is bad causing no image to be displayed. Going through the iStore Admin and checking the Catalog / Content everything looks fine.
    If I remove the association to the content for the item, apply the change, then re-associate the content and apply, everything works fine. So, it would appear that the content is not the issue. We will be loading 1000+ image associations, so having to manually fix each one is not a very good option.
    After creating the Item - Content association, is there another API or something else that needs to be run so that the image correctly shows up on the iStore?
    Thanks
    Kyle

    1. Did you try using save_logical_content API.
    2. Did you verify the table IBE_DSP_OBJ_LGL_CTNT, IBE_DSP_LGL_PHYS_MAP. If data exists, Please send me an email to [email protected]

  • Lock Object error during batch load

    Batch load was delayed about an hour. First error message in the Server Log said "Object is already locked by user""Error 1053010 processing request [Lock Object]-Disconnecting"Then it went through a series of "Object locked by user admin" and "received client request: create Temporary Object(from user admin)"It did this several times until connection.Although from time to time we have had problems with Objects getting locked and preventing maintenance in the Application Manager. This is the first time that is has prevented a batch load. Does anyone know what could have triggered this during the load process?

    This happened to us a lot, I think it's due to people opening objects, then letting their session time out, leaving a phantom lock.We solved the problem by calling the UNLOCKOBJECT function before any dimbuilds. 99.9% of the time this raises an error, "..object x is not locked..", but the rare time that the otl is inadvertently locked, it prevents the script from failing.<br><br>HTH,<br><br>Jeff McAhren<br>Dallas, Texas<br><br>ex to unlock the outline for app/db flash:<br><br>UNLOCKOBJECT 1, "FLASH" "FLASH" "FLASH"

  • Batch Loader File Name - Replace/Append?

    We employ a custom/smart merge in FDM that automatically removes previously loaded intersections in HFM 11.1.2.1 by appending NODATA lines at the end of our load file based on the information included in the previous load file.  In the FDM configurations, users are only able to use the MERGE option when loading data so that this functionality is not subject to override.
    We have just purchased and developed a Batch Loader solution that we'd like to pair with this smart merge functionality and I want to be sure that we are requiring appropriate file name configuration based on a MERGE data load setting.  If I understand the file name conventions for batch loader correctly, the "RA", "RR", "AR", "AA" suffix at the end of the loader determines whether batch loader runs through a replace or append.
    If we want a location's file to replace the previous load file within FDM during the import step, but load all data files to HFM using a merge, should my filename end with "RA"?  Also, if someone accidentally uses RR, does changing the Adapter Option (FM11X-G5-ELoadOptMethodVal) to only show Merge protect against a replace load?
    Thanks in advance!
    S

    The Load Tags are as follows:
    Load Method for FDM: R,A
    Load method for Target System: R,A
    That is correct, if you want to do a replace in FDM and a Merge in HFM you would use RA or RM.
    RR would perform a replace in FDM and a Replace in HFM.
    You would need to test removing the Replace from the option in the adapter and see if it would fail for load.

    You can use the Trial balance file for loading journals. Just select the location and set data value to entity currecy adjustments. The data will go as journal entry even if you use trial balance file but you wont have 2 columns debit and credit only one colum for amount.
    Hope this is helpful.

  • Batch load images (tiff) into table with a BLOB column

    Hi,
    Does anyone know any third-party tool/software to bulk/batch load images into Oracle table? There is an ETL software to regularly pull the images (tiff) from a ftp server to a directory in the database server. There is no way I can hardcode the image filenames into the control file and use SQL*Loader to load the files. Is there any tool/software that can just grab whatever files in the directory and load them into Oracle. Then, I can write a program to extract the filename from the file already loaded into the table and update the filename column.
    Thanks.

  • Loading file in Merge Mode through the batch loader in FDM

    Hi,
    I have multiple locations loading in replace mode and 1 location loading in merge. We are using the batch loader and following the naming convention specified in the admin guide. Is there a way to specify in the location name to load the file to HFM in merge mode, or does that location need a seperate adapter with the load rule set to merge?
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

    You dont need a spearate adaptor. You can achieve this by changing the naming of the files. I believe u currently use RR option for replacing the data. (seq_<Location>_<Category>_<Peiod>_RR.txt). You can use A or R appropriately in your load method.

  • FDM Multiload Batch loader issue

    Hi All,
    I need help in Multiload Batch load process. I am working on FDM 11.1.2.1. We need to move data of 6 months. I am using comma separated Text file for this purpose.
    When I am loading it through FDM user interface, it is fine (It is generating 1 export file for all 6 months with diffrent combination) but If I am trying to run it through FDM Batch load for Multiload it is generating the 6 export files and loading one by one (Which I don't want).
    I want one export file generated for all month. Is there any setting by which FDM will stop multiple Export file generation for diffrent month.
    Remaining process is Working fine if I am loading manually through FDM web.
    Thanks,
    Shivendra

    Hi Shivendra
    Unfortunately I think it is a "feature" of batch processing.
    When processing multi-load files manually through FDM a text multiload source file produces a single export file while an excel multiload source file produces a separate export file for each period in the source file.
    With batch processing unfortunately both types of source file behave the same as the manual excel way.
    One option that may help you is parallel processing in the batch? Be warned though, that may not help either as the parallel processing will queue files for the same POV (I think from memory it treats different periods for the same location/category as the same POV in parallel processing so if you are loading say 12 periods for the same location/category you may not gain anything in parallel processing).
    Hope this helps

  • WebCenter Content | Batch Loader

    Hi All,
    We have to checkin 1 million (approx) scanned document in WebCenter Content 11g.
    We are planning to use WebCenter Content Batch Loader feature for this.
    Is there any limitation with Batch Loader in terms of volume, performance.
    Also is there any guideline available for Batch loader best practises.
    Thanks in advance !
    ~ Piyush

    Assuming you are saving the files to a file system rather than in the database be sure to understand how metadata spreads content out in the file system. Performance of the hardware can degrade significantly if you have too many files in a folder.
    When using Batchloader on scanned images i commonly set dAccount = year/month/day of the document creation or scan or anything that helped spread out the content.
    Also I found working with batches of 10,000 at a time to be a good number and would run multiple batches at the same time.
    Turn the indexer off before you start and on again when you finish then do a reindex with a fairly large batch size, 2500 seemed a good number for me, though with scanned images this wont matter as much.
    Batchloader worked great.

    thx Jiri for your response but issue has been resolved. Actually earlier everything was working fine but all of sudden that day it stopped working. If you see the exceptions where it was referring "libJniNativeOsUtils.so" was 64 bit and when i replaced that with 32 bit, it started working.
    It really surprises me why and how it got changed but and how everything was working earlier :)
    thx anyways.
