Best Practices for FSCM Multiple systems scenario

Hi guys,
We have a scenario to implement FSCM credit, collections and dispute management solution for our landscape comprising the following:
a 4.6c system
a 4.7 system
an ECC 5 system
2 ECC6 systems
I have documented my design, but would like to double check and rob minds with colleagues regarding the following areas/questions.
Business partner replication and synchronization: what is the best practice for the initial replication of customers in each of the different systems to business partners in the FSCM system? (a) for the initial creation, and (b) for on-going synchronization of new customers and changes to existing customers?
Credit Management: what is the best practice for update of exposures from SD and FI-AR from each of the different systems? Should this be real-time for each transaction from SD and AR (synchronous) or periodic, say once a day? (assuming we can control this in the BADI)
Is there any particular point to note in dispute management?
Any other general note regarding this scenario?
Thanks in advance. Comments appreciated.

Hi,
I guess when you've the informations that the SAP can read and take some action, has to be asynchronous (from non-SAP to FSCM);
But when the credit analysis is done by non-SAP and like an 'Experian', SAP send the informations with invoices paid and not paid and this non-SAP group give a rate for this customer. All banks and big companies in the world does the same. And for this, you've the synchronous interface. This interface will updated the FSCM-CR (Credit), blocking or not the vendor, decreasing or increasing them limit amount to buy.
So, for these 1.000 sales orders, you'll have to think with PI in how to create an interface for this volume? What parameters SAP does has to check? There's an time interval to receive and send back? Will be a synchronous or asynchronous?
Contact your PI to help think in this information exchange.
Am I clear in your question?

Best Practice for using multiple models

Hi Buddies,
     Can u tell me the best practices for using multiple models in single WD application?
    Means --> I am using 3 RFCs on single application for my function. Each time i am importing that RFC model under
    WD --->Models and i did model binding seperately to Component Controller. Is this is the right way to impliment multiple            models in single application ?

It very much depends on your design, but One RFC per model is definitely a no no.
Refer to this document to understand how should you use the model in most efficient way.

Best practice for running multiple sites on 1 CF install?

Hi-
I'm setting up a new hosting environment (Windows Server 2008 Standard 64 bit VPS configuration, MySQL, IIS 7, CF 9)
Has anyone seen any docs or can anyone suggest best practices for configuring multiple sites in this environment? At this point I'm thinking simple is best, one new site in IIS for each client (domain) and point it to CF.
Given this environment, is anyone aware of any gotchas within the setup of CF 9 on IIS 7?
Thank you in advance,
Rich

There's nothing wrong with that approach. You can run as many IIS sites as you like against a single CF install.
As for installing CF on IIS 7, I recommend that you do the following: install CF 9 without connecting it to IIS, then installing the 9.0.1 upgrade and any hotfixes, then connecting CF to IIS using the web server configuration utility. This will keep you from having to install the IIS 6 compatibility layer that's needed with CF 9 but not with CF 9.0.1.

Best practices for a development/production scenario with ORACLE PORTAL 10G

Hi all,
we'd like to know what is the best approach for maintaining a dual development/production portal scenario. Specially important is the process of moving from dev. to prod. and what it implies in terms of portal availability in the production environment.
I suppose the best policy to achieve this is to have two portal instances and move content via transport sets. Am I right? Is there any specific documentation about dev/prod scenarios? Can anybody help with some experiences? We are a little afraid regarding transport sets, as we have heard some horror stories about them...
Thanks in advance and have a nice day.

It would be ok for a pair of pages and a template.
I meant transport sets failed for moving an entire pagegroup (about 100 pages, 1Gb of documents).
But if your need only deals with a few pages, I therefore would direclty developp on the production system : make a copy of the page, work on it, then change links.

Best practice for running multiple instances?

Hi!
I have a MMPRPG interface that currently uses shared objects to store several pages of information per account. A lot of users have several accounts (some as many as 50 or more) and may access only one or several different game servers.. I am building a manager application in air to manage them and plan on putting all the information in several sql db's.
The original authors obviously had no idea what the future held. Currently players have a separate folder for each account, with a copy of the same swf application in EACH folder. So if a player has 20 accounts, he manually opens 20 instances of the same swf (or projector exe, based on personal prefrence). I have spent the last year or so tinkering with the interface, adding functionality, streamlining, etc, and have gathered a large following of supporters.
Each account is currently a complete isolated copy of a given interface (there are several different ones out there. It could shape up to be quite a battle) In order to remedy this undesireable situation, I have replaced the login screen with a controller. The question now is how to handle instansiating each account. The original application simply replaced the login screen with the main application screen in the top application container at login.
My main (first) question is: If I replace the login screen with a controller is it more economical to have the controller open a window for each account and load an instance of the required classes or to compile the main application and load instances of the swf?
Each account can have up to 10 instances of about 30 different actionscript classes that get switched in and out of the main display. I need to be able to both send and receive events between each instance and the main controller.
I tenatively plan on using air to open windows, and simply alter the storage system using shared objects to storing the same objects in an sql table.
Or should that be 1 row per account? I am not all that worried about the player db, since it is basically file storage, but the shared db will be in constant use, possibly from several accounts. (Map and player data is updated constantly) I am not sure yet how I plan to handle updating that one.
I am at the point now where all the basic groundwork is laid, and the controller (though still rough around the edges) stands ready to open some accounts... Had the first account up and running a couple days ago, but ran into trouble when the next one tried to access what used to be static infoirmation... The next step is to build some databases and I need to get it right the first time. Once I release the app and it writes a db to the users machine, I do not want to have to change it
I am an avid listener and and an eager student. (I have posted here before under the name eboda_kcuf but was notified a few weeks ago that it was not acceptable in the forums....) I got some great help from Alex amd a few others, so I am sure you can help me out here.
After all, you guys are the pro's! just point me in the right direction....
Oh, almost forgot: I use flashbuilder 4.5, sdk 4.5.1

Best practice for displaying multiple subpanels?

I have about 20 different subpanels to display controls for different functional groups. What is considered the best way to represent these on the main front panel? For example:
- tab control with a sub-panel on each tab?
- Single subpanel using Insert/Remove methods to display the selected subpanel
(select visible panel with buttons or ring menu?)
- some other way?
Considering from both code development/maintenance point of view and user experience point of view, what do you consider the best way to implement this?
Thanks and Best Regards,
-- J.

Hello,
It is hard to determine what is best for your specific type of information. In the end, they all do the same thing, but what is the best for your users? What looks the best? Which provides the easiest accessibility? Which do you find to be most intuitite? There are instances where any number of these methods might work for a particular application and would not be as good in another one. This all depends on how you would like to present the information to the user and also the level of accessibility that you would like. If there was only one best way to do this, why even give options?

Best practices for Calling Multiple Business Services in OSB

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I need to call multiple business services in OSB. We are presently calling them sequentially in a proxy pipeline. I was wondering if we could accomplish the same task in a better way. Each of the business services are mutually exclusive.
Thanks in Advance,
Rudraksh

Hi Eric,
Thanks for the response. We figured that it is possible to call multiple services with Split Join. However, we ran into the issue you described. We had a blocking call and had to wait until each of the services returned a response.
However, we needed a Async model for our design and felt that this might not be a right fit.
We are now looking at implementing the publish option with QoS configured as this fits our usecase better. Thanks for the help again.

Best practices for ZFS file systems when using live upgrade?

I would like feedback on how to layout the ZFS file system to deal with files that are constantly changing during the Live Upgrade process. For the rest of this post, lets assume I am building a very active FreeRadius server with log files that are constantly updating and must be preserved in any boot environment during the LU process.
Here is the ZFS layout I have come up with (swap, home, etc omitted):
NAME                                USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT
rpool                              11.0G 52.0G    94K /rpool
rpool/ROOT                         4.80G 52.0G    18K legacy
rpool/ROOT/boot1                   4.80G 52.0G 4.28G /
rpool/ROOT/boot1/zones-root         534M 52.0G    20K /zones-root
rpool/ROOT/boot1/zones-root/zone1   534M 52.0G   534M /zones-root/zone1
rpool/zone-data                      37K 52.0G    19K /zones-data
rpool/zone-data/zone1-runtime        18K 52.0G    18K /zones-data/zone1-runtimeThere are 2 key components here:
1) The ROOT file system - This stores the / file systems of the local and global zones.
2) The zone-data file system - This stores the data that will be changing within the local zones.
Here is the configuration for the zone itself:
<zone name="zone1" zonepath="/zones-root/zone1" autoboot="true" bootargs="-m verbose">
<inherited-pkg-dir directory="/lib"/>
<inherited-pkg-dir directory="/platform"/>
<inherited-pkg-dir directory="/sbin"/>
<inherited-pkg-dir directory="/usr"/>
<filesystem special="/zones-data/zone1-runtime" directory="/runtime" type="lofs"/>
<network address="192.168.0.1" physical="e1000g0"/>
</zone>The key components here are:
1) The local zone / is shared in the same file system as global zone /
2) The /runtime file system in the local zone is stored outside of the global rpool/ROOT file system in order to maintain data that changes across the live upgrade boot environments.
The system (local and global zone) will operate like this:
The global zone is used to manage zones only.
Application software that has constantly changing data will be installed in the /runtime directory within the local zone. For example, FreeRadius will be installed in: /runtime/freeradius
During a live upgrade the / file system in both the local and global zones will get updated, while /runtime is mounted untouched in whatever boot environment that is loaded.
Does this make sense? Is there a better way to accomplish what I am looking for? This this setup going to cause any problems?
What I would really like is to not have to worry about any of this and just install the application software where ever the software supplier sets it defaults to. It would be great if this system somehow magically knows to leave my changing data alone across boot environments.
Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Hello "jemurray".
Have you read this document? (page 198)
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-7013?l=en
Then the solution is:
01.- Create an alternate boot enviroment
a.- In a new rpool
b.- In the same rpool
02.- Upgrade this new enviroment
03.- Then I've seen that you have the "radious-zone" in a sparse zone (it's that right??) so, when you update the alternate boot enviroment you will (at the same time) upgrading the "radious-zone".
This maybe sound easy but you should be carefull, please try this in a development enviroment
Good luck

TestStand best practices for distribution

We're looking for best practices for distributing TestStand
systems. I've found the TestStand
Style Guide but it's a little sparse on how to set up the
distributed systems. We're looking for guidelines on where to put
configuration data, where to put sequence files, how to manage users,
and similar.
We'll be distributing systems to various contract manufacturers in
China as well as using the systems in multiple locations in-house.
What have you done with distributions and what problems have you seen?
Right now we're planning to separate the Deployment Engine from our
sequence files and putting all our configuration into our distribution
kit for the Deployment Engine.

The TestStand Reference manual provides good information on system
distribution. Chapter 14 : Deploying TestStand Systems covers the
necessary information for distributing your TestStand
application. I do have a few suggestions and caveats:
(1) Make sure you use a Work Space when distributing your
files. A Work Space makes it easy to package all of your files
and dependencies. Moreover, the distribution wizard provides a
feature that displays all the files that will be included in the
installation package into an easy to use Tree View.
(2) TestStand currently does not look for embedded DLL
dependencies. So, if your code is calling a DLL module that calls
a DLL module, be sure to include the embedded dependency DLL in your
WorkSpace.
(3) StationGlobals and Custom Data Types are usually missed in
installation. Be sure that you are including your
StationGlobals.ini file and MyTypes.ini file from the Cfg directory
into your installation workspace.
If you have more specific questions, please feel free to post them here!
Good Luck!

Best practice for copying help...

I am creating a webhelp project to be accessed from an internal homegrown intranet app(by clicking on a help button within the app it fires up the help screens in a new window).... I published the help out to a network share however now in testing opening this from my app it takes a long time to fire up the new window...
Is there a best practice for this type of scenario?? Do I need a way to copy the help project down locally for each user? If so what is the best technique being that they are accessing the help in a webapp not a winapp?
Thanks!

Hi there
Typically you leave WebHelp on a server and access it from wherever. That's the beauty of it.
You might begin by creating a simple shortcut or hyperlink from your desktop to open the help. Check the time it takes. If it opens really fast, you know there is an issue to be addressed with the way your application is opening it.
Cheers... Rick

Best Practices for multiple authors using single project?

We are having many issues, particularly with moving, renaming, and multiple check out warnings. We have a single project with many authors and it seems like RH is not designed to work that way. There is an article in the RH devnet-archive in an article entitled "Sharing RoboHelp Project Among Multiple Authors" that says"
"At first there may be the temptation to let every author work on every file in a project. This is certainly not a best practice. Regardless of source contraol, it is always best to designate certain authors as owning certain content-related sections, folders, or topics within a project -particulary at the folder level."
This statement, and our experience seems to indicate that RH is not a true CMS as we had envisioned. What are the best practices for this scenario to avoid stepping on each others toes and having problems with source control.

I have moved this to the source control forum for the gurus there to answer.
Meantime I must admit I read that statement the same way as you first time. However, on rereading I think what the author is saying is not that what you want cannot be done, rather it is best practice to guide authors to work in discrete areas.
I will leave it to the author or another guru to give you a more complete answer.

Best practices for apps integration with third party systems ?

Hi all
I would like to know if there is any document from oracle or from your own regarding best practices for apps integration with third party systems.
For example, in particular, let's say we need customization in a given module(ex:payables) need to provide data to a third party system, consider following:
outbound interface:
1)should third party system should be given with direct access to oracle database to access a particular payments data information table/view to look for data ?
2) should oracle create a file to third party system, so that it can read and do what it need to do?
inbound:
1) should third party should directly login and insert data into tables which holds response data?
2) again, should third party create file and oralce apps will pick up for further processing?
again, there could be lot of company specific scenarios like it has to be real time or not... etc...
How does companies make sure third party systems are not directly dipping into other systems (oracle apps/others), so that it will follow certain integration best practices.
how does enterprise architectute will play a role in this? can we apply SOA standards? should use request/reply using Tibco etc?
Many oracle apps implementations customizations are more or less directly interacting with third party systems by including code to login into respective third party systems and vice versa.
Let me your know if you have done differently and that would help oracle apps community.
thanks
rrb.

you want to send idoc to third party system (NONSAP).
what kind of system is it? can it handle http requests
or
can it handle webservice?
which version of R/3 you are using?
what is the mechanism the receiving system has, to receive data?
Regards
Raja

Basic Strategy / Best Practices for System Monitoring with Solution Manager

I am very new to SAP and the Basis group at my company. I will be working on a project to identify the best practices of System and Service level monitoring using Solution Manager. I have read a good amount about SAP Solution Manager and the concept of monitoring but need to begin mapping out a monitoring strategy.
We currently utilize the RZ20 transaction and basic CCMS monitors such as watching for update errors, availability, short dumps, etc.. What else should be monitored in order to proactively find possible issues. Are there any best practices you all have found when implimenting Monitoring for new solutions added to the SAP landscape.... what are common things we would want to monitor over say ERP, CRM, SRM, etc?
Thanks in advance for any comments or suggestions!

Hi Mike,
Did you try the following link ?
If not, it may be useful to some extent:
http://service.sap.com/bestpractices
---> Cross-Industry Packages ---> Best Practices for Solution Management
You have quite a few documents there - those on BPM may also cover Solution Monitoring aspects.
Best regards,

Best Practice for Multiple iTunes and One Account?

My wife and I share our account for our iPhone Applications and Songs in iTunes.
Can someone point me to a topic that covers a best practice for multiple iTunes syncing?
I travel a lot and keep my iPhone synced to my Macbook Pro while she uses the workstation at home to sync to. We keep the addresses and contacts and calendars synced through MobileMe, however, I'm trying to find the best way of pushing applications and songs I've bought over to the other PC so they're still around while I'm traveling for her to sync with.
Thoughts?

Hi Steve,
Might be trying for solution for a long time, If i understood your question clear let me clarify you few points.
You are trying to access the bex query which is designed with the exit's in the background based on the logic and trying to call the entire dimensions and key-figures in a single connection. Then you are trying to map those data in the charts.
Steve, try to make more connections based upon the logic and split them. use the same query but split them by sales per customer group, sales per day, sales per week by making three different connections and try. You can merge the prompts from all connections.
Hope this Helps!!!
Sorry if i misunderstood your question.
