Whatever Variables we will assign will all those be available nin WEBI? Will BEX authorizations be available in WEBI? How exception aggregations would be treated in BO?
Thanks

Embedded BI - Reporting Functionalities and Performances

Hi,
there are Reporting functionalities that are available only for Embedded BI/external BI or they are the same?
IMPORTANT: there are differencies in Reporting on ERP Tables with Virtual Infocube use if BI is embedded/not embedded? There are different types of access RFC, batch...?
Points if useful.
Thanx, Claudio

Claudio,
I dont know if I understood the other half of your question.
1. Reporting on ERP tables with virtual cube.....: YES, there will be a huge performance difference if you try to access data remotely than getting the data to BI and then access.
2. Type of Access RFC, batch: In BI you can use a feature called reporting agent / broadcasting where by the reports can be pre calculated, schedules to run in the background and even mail the result set to the users.
I dont know if i understand your question properly.

Outline Agreements - min order qty and regular vendor flag

As a part of E Source Integration with ECC we are planning to leverageusing Outline Agreement(Contract Type MK) to store
Price and other Business Terms for Material / Vendor combinations. Currently we are
using Purchase Information Record with minimum order quantity and
regular vendor flag functionalities, and these are maintained manually.
We intend to use Minimum Order qty and Regular Vendor Flag
indicator in Outline Agreement as well, however noticed that these fields are
not available in the screens. Does anyone know if these fields can be enabled in an outline agreement?

Guys
thanks for reply..
But I thnik my question was not fully clear as the aswers didn't make sense to me...
As a logistics consultant .I know that I can maintain Min Order qty for a material + vendor at PIR level..
My question ..if I buy 10 items in a PO from a sinle vendor..is there any option to restrict Min qrder qty for these combination of materials..
or in other words vendor says he dont care about number of items ,but the lot lot should be min..10 cartons only..
appropriate points will be rewarded.
thanks in advance.

any suggestions for a mac friendly NAS , and how it can be accesed by my client over the internet?

thank for any help.

Hi Thomas,
I have had similar considerations and finally chose QNAP 439 Pro II over the many other ones out there (LinkSys, NetGear, Bufallo, etc.). Without going into technical details, the main reason for my choice were easy-of-use, functionalities and scalability:
http://www.qnap.com/prodetail_feature.asp?pid=148
It's not the cheapest solution out there, but works great with the Mac, even acts as storage solution for TimeMachine (with latest firm ware). And implementing client access is easy.
Hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Mark

Error message while starting IPM managed server and WebCenter Portal Spaces

Hi,
1. I am getting an error message when i try to start IPM_server1 in Oracle ECM. The message is as follows in the Command Prompt :
<Mar 6, 2013 5:05:50 PM AST> <Warning> <Munger> <BEA-2156203> <A version attribute was not found in element application in the deployment descriptor in C:\Oracl
e\MiddlewareNew6Release1\oracle_common\atgpf\modules\oracle.applcore.model_11.1.1\oracle.applcore.model.stub.ear/META-INF/application.xml. A version attribute is required, but this version of the Weblogic Server will assume that the JEE5 is used. Future versions of the Weblogic Server will reject descriptors that do not specify the JEE version.>
2. When after some time the imaging server starts and i try to login it does not accept the username and password provided for EM. and login is unsuccessfull always.
Regarding my other issue is with Webcenter portal spaces :
1. I have installed WC_Spaces under the same UCM_domain where all other Managed servers are there.
2. When i try to login it always takes me to a screen which says : Internal error (stating some numbers regarding date & time). Please contact your administrator.
Need to fix these 2 issues very soon. Help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi Satendra,
Is upgradation the only solution?No, it is one of the better options (and my personal suggestion) as PS2 release is more stable and has many more functionalities and features than PS1. The error which you are getting may be due to a corrupt installation. In case you want to solve this error only and do not want to go for upgrade, then feel free to raise a case with support.

Clarification on IDOC and ALE

HI,
I need to generate an outbound IDOC from transaction ME21N. I have certain doubts on this, please clarify,
1. What is the difference in ME21 and ME21N.Both creates purchase order.
2. ORDERS is the message type used for creating the purchase order and I worked to get an IDOC thru ME21 but I didnt generate IDOC from ME21N. I hope ME21 uses ORDERS message type and ME21N uses PORDCR1 Message type. Please clarify and give some inputs.
3. Can I use the FM 'IDOC_OUTPUT_ORDERS' assigned in process code ME10 for ORDERS01 in PORDCR05. Or do I need to generate new process code and FM for PORDCR05.
4. Experts, please tell me the steps to genearte IDOC while creating and changing the purchase order thru transaction ME21N & ME22N.
Thanks.

Hi Preethi,
The difference between Me21 and Me21N is that the second one is a Enjoy transaction.
Enjoy transactions have additional functionalities and generally have been developed in Object oriented programming.
Orders message type is used for PO's. It doesnt matter if you call in Me21 or Me21N.
Cheers

Eracom CSA 8000 and SUN PKCS#11 API

I'm trying to use Eracom as a cryptographic accelerator for using with JSSE in establishment of SSL connections. I'm using its software version that I haven't installed the hardware but they both have the same functionalities and both uses PKCS11 as their interface to actual operations. The problem is that I have a token contains many entries includes secret keys, Private keys and certificates. But when I construct a keystore in my program in does not contain any entries. I looked at the log created by Eracom and noticed that it does not log in at all. However some of those entries are public and can be seen with Cryptoki Token Browser a GUI for working with tokens.
I used that graphical interface and logged in as security officer. Then I generated a RSA keypair with subject set to 'CN=myserver'. I used Derive Key on public key to generate a certificate request and in turn prepared a certificate based on that request and imported that certificate using Create Object option. In this case it works it lists it as an entry and uses it in SSL server.

You need to use the trustanchors nssModule, read the JavaTM PKCS#11 Reference Guide at --
http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/security/p11guide.html#Config
For example, you can write your config file like this --
name=NSS
nssSecmodDirectory=path_of_your_dbs
nssLibraryDirectory=path_of_dll_or_so
nssModule=trustanchors

Why Netweaver vs. custom SAP and Web development

I have been reviewing Netweaver as well as SAP's Manufacturing Execution (ME) to determine whether we want to implement this functionality. I understand that Netweaver provides a standard platform for a company's custom development but my question is Why invest time and money in Netweaver when I can develop custom Z-code and Web code without it? What is the benefit to Netweaver?
Thanks,
Robert Quinn

Hello Robert
yes, of course you can develop you own zcode and web/java code without using SAP netweaver platform or nwds(sap netweaver developer studio).
But with SAP netweaver, you can make full use of the available functionalities, and the development will be faster.
more important, you can achieve a seamless integration of different product line, such SAP ERP and SAP ME.

Multple Services Vendors to have Single Vendor Code and also Multiple TaxCd

Hey SAP Gurus,
Please help me with my problem.
Background:
1. Currently on SAP 4.7 there are close to 10,000 Vendors. Many of these Vendors are acting as more than ONE Goods / Services Provider.
2. Few Services rendered by Vendors are subject to Withholding Tax (Tax Deduction at Source).
3. For the Withholding Tax we are using Std SAP provided functionalities and hence for each Service, attracting a separate TDS Provision, we have set up a dedicated Vendor Code. All Vendor codes are linked to one Payee so that the Automatic Payment Run issues the Cheques to ONE Vendor code only.
4. The Vendors masters creation is an ongoing activity. So, say for ex, in 2008 one Vendor was providing X service, started providing Y Service in 2009 leading to creation of dedicated Vendor code. The same Vendor is now providing 3rd service attracting a different provision of With. tax - Hence in 2010 for the "same" Vendor / Party, a 3rd Vendor Master Record with different Vendor Code (system generated internal numbering) is created.
Problem:
A. Our client wants to have ONE single Vendor code with MULTIPLE Roles assignment. I am not very sure if we can have it done in SAP by creating some ROLES.
B. The MM module is not live here. This means, the PO related functionalities (if possible) cannot be used.
C. There are multiple systems from where the Vendor Liability Line item is generated and it comes to SAP for GL Posting and Final payout (Thru Cheque or Electronic Fund Transfer etc.).
D. In our Indian Scenario, each Section or Provision, leads to set up of 4 TDS Tax Codes: Basic, Surcharge, Cess 1 and Cess 2.
Due to this requirement, we have configured the said respective 4 Tax Codes per section.
E. If a Vendor is providing 4 different services attracting 4 different Sections of TDS, this will lead to having 4 X 4 = 16 Tax Codes for each such Vendor.
F. The problem would become more complex on receiving the Transactional Data File (thru Interface) from various Applications generating the Liability Line Item for Vendor.
Revisiting the Requirement:
Have One Vendor Code per Vendor or Party.
Your help would be highly appreciated.
Many Thanks
SAP Consultant

Hi
To overcome this problem you have two options.
1. you can create only one vendor code.For the withholding tax purpose you can have multiple tax code options.At the time of giving input you can select withholding tax code from the drop down list.why dont you use that option?
2. Here you can use the Head office concept.
first you create vendor(ex: xyz).
after that you can create one more vendor code(for same vendor for different service) and assign first vendor(main vendor) in the head office field in the account information tab under recon account field.
what ever the posting are doing for the different services automatically routed to main vendor(Ex: xyz)
