BPF completed steps doubt

Hi,
I am working on BPC 10 NW and i have a doubt about the BPF functionality cause i have created a BPF template with several steps and every step has some hyperlinks. My doubt is: I supose the BPF should block the hyperlinks inside a step after it is closed but it is not doing it, when i set the step as closed its working only as a mark but the hyperlinks are still available for the owner. Is that the right behavior?, if so, how can i manage to block the user for example from loading data after the loading step is completed. I spect the BPF to block the hyperlinks on a completed step until it is re opened. Any help would be apreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Michelle,
After not getting any response on the forums we asked SAP directly and the answer was that the completed steps were not designed to be locked on BPC 10. The great news is that on SAP BPC NW SP08 they released an enhancement implementing this feature. Please check the note 1741090.
You should also check note 1703032 it is the central note of the SP08 release and it has several enhancements.
Hope it helps.
Regards, have a nice day!

BPF Completion step failure

Hi,
I am using BPC 7.5.104 MS.
When i tried to click 'Step Completed' in BPF (which will activate an email to be sent to the reviewer), i received the following error:
A runtime error has occurred at server
- StartIndex cannot be less than zero.
Parameter name: startIndex
In Management Console, the error message expands to the following:
==============[System Error Tracing]==============
[System Name] : Email
[Message Type] : ErrorMessage
[Job Name]     : Handler.SendMailByUserID
[Exception]
    DetailMsg : {System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: StartIndex cannot be less than zero.
Parameter name: startIndex
   at System.String.InternalSubStringWithChecks(Int32 startIndex, Int32 length, Boolean fAlwaysCopy)
   at OSoft.Services.Application.Email.Handler.SendMailByUserID(String strAppSet, String strIDs, String strSubject, String strContents, String strAttachment, String strFrom, Boolean bText, String strDelimiter)}
==============[System Error Tracing End ]==============
Any suggestions? I have reassigned SQL index, but it didn't work.

Hi Lip Chean,
Yes , it must be the e-mail configuration or In the reviewer properties in each dimension member don't forget to fill with the user name.

BPF matched steps hierarchy

Hi gurus,
I've the following issue, i want to implement an aprobation circuit with BPF.
For this i have a dimension with a hierarchy:
Country
Region North
Plant1
Sales Rep A
Sales Rep B
Plant2
Sales Rep C
Sales Rep D
Region South
Plant3
Sales Rep E
Sales Rep F
Plant4
Sales Rep G
Sales Rep H
I developed a BPF with steps
Sales Rep insert data, Plant manager review it. So this is the first step with owner and reviewer.
The next step is Regional review so when the first step is closed a new step where the owner is the Region Manager and the reviewer is the Country Manager.
The problem comes when i created the step regions for the first step I enter: COUNTRY --> BAS
And when i created step regions for the second sted i enter : COUNTRY--> DEP (matched step region)
But i cannot validated the bpf template, because the step regions for step1 is not the same that for step 2.
I want for example when plant4 and plant3 close the step for the regional mannager open is that possible anyway. Am i missing anything?
Thank you in advance

Complete steps of RoadMap UI element in webdynpro

hi all,
     Can some one tell me the complete steps of how to implement RoadMap UI element in webdynpro.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Amol
I need help in implementing RoadMap.
My code is as follows:
public void onActionStep1(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
    //@@begin onActionStep1(ServerEvent)
final String stepId = wdContext.currentContextElement().getStepSelected();
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("step selected ---> "+wdContext.currentContextElement().getStepSelected());
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("stepId ---> "+stepId);
if ("Steps1".equals(stepId))
     wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("step selected ---> "+stepId);
     wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Welcome to Step 1");
else if ("Steps2".equals(stepId))
     wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("step selected ---> "+stepId);
     wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Welcome to Step 2");
}else if("Steps3".equals(stepId))
     wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("step selected ---> "+stepId);
     wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Welcome to Step 3");

     wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("step selected ---> "+stepId);
     wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Welcome to Step 5");
    //@@end
StepSelected is a context attribute of type String.
RoadMap.selectedStep is binded with StepSelected
RoadMap.onSelect event with the action Step1
But i'm not able to display msg on selecting the step.
The above code is from the following link:

I am trying to shift my backup folder for many weeks to another location/drive on my pc hard drive(windows xp). have tried to use the recommended JUNCTION for the same but do not have a complete step by step instruction to do that. can anybody help me

You can redirect <Profile>\<AppData>\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup to a folder on another drive using NTFSLink (shell ext., might only work on XP) or Junction (cmd line tool).
In essence you move the existing folder to a new location, create an empty folder where the old one used to be, then get the operating system/tool to link the two togther and silently redirect any file operation on the old location through to the new one.

HT204406 My iTunes Match will not complete Step 3 of the uploading process. Many songs are "waiting"

My iTunes Match will not complete Step 3 of the uploading process. I have over 700 "items" designated as "waiting." I have restarted multiple times but it stalls at this point.

I've been reading all these comments about how match is not working and people are having problems uploading all their songs. My problem is more basic than that. When I open iTunes I immediately get the spinning color disc of death and I can't do anything at all. I can't go to the store. I can't listen to a song. I can't do anything. I just tried to sync my iPod. I pugged it into my computer, iTunes started up, looked like it was going to sync, then the spinning disc again. So forget match; I can't do anything, nada, nothing. I even tried to send my iTunes application to trash, but I got a message saying I couldn't do that because it was needed for OS X. Talk about a do loop, this is unbelievable.
Is anyone else having the problem I am having?

FIXED: Registration Error. Can't complete step 2 l...

I'm trying to register my home line with the app, but when trying to complete step 2, where it phones you with an activation code, it doesn't work.
I enter my number, confirm to call me straight away, then it thinks about it before returning to the same page (no place to enter a code) and I receive no phone call.
I'm on an iPhone (IOS6) and can't see why this would happen. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
ETA: Ended up deleting the app and re-downloading and it's working now, so please ignore this message!

.. just for a further bit of information; when the app reinstalls after I accept the agreement it starts on step 2 of 5 .. amost as if step 1 is the one I need to complete to allow the installation to complete.
Is there any other settings file that needs removed?

ITunes match completes step 1 and hangs on step 2

Up until the evening of June 10th, Itunes match has worked great. Nothing new that I can think of but it will no longer comiplete the matching process, completes step 1 and hangs on step 2 for hours and hours.
Reboot
turn off Itunes match and turn back on
turn off Genious and turn back on.
Nothing has worked so far.
Running Mavericks on a 2009 Imac with latest version of Itunes. Cant figure out how to get help as Itunes match is not listed as an option for support just Itunes and The Itunes store.
sure could use some advice that does not include trashing my library.
I have about 6,000 tracks in my Match library.

Customizing the email message sent from BPF after step completion

Is it possible to customize the email message sent by BPF after a step completion.I would like to customize the email sent by the SAP BPC once a BPF step has been completed. Is it possible to add some dynamic parameters related to the BPF as part of the email message, for example : Cost Centre, Account, Finance or any dimension related to the BPF
Currently it sends out a message as given below
[Approve Data] step of [Test BPF 1] has been completed by dom\bpfuser
Where
[Test BPF 1] => Name of the BPF
[Approve Data] => A Step in the BPF
dom\bpfuser => Domain\ User name
Note :In the APPSET Parameter BPFSTEP_COMPLETE_MSG we tried to add a custom message but it seems to add to display along with the existing message and treats the variables as plain text.

I used the Note 2 for over 6 months before it started happening. About the same time, my husband's iPhone started sending text to email messages at attachments to I blamed it on his phone. I went into his settings and couldn't find any reason and I checked a multitude of websites and saw MANY people having the same issue with no resolution. I also tried deleting all text history and contact info from both of our phones but it continued to happen until I reset my phone to factory defaults.
2 weeks ago I purchased the Note 3 and text messages from my daughter started coming as [email protected] Again, I tried purging all contact information and text message history from both phones with no success. I waited until my daughter upgraded to a Galaxy S4 Mini. I reset my phone to factory at the same time I was setting her phone up and that has fixed the problem again.
My main concern now is that this bug will again randomly rear it's ugly head and I'll again have to reset my phone to factory, losing all my settings and taking days to customize it the way I want it again.
Thank you for ANY help you can give.

BPF: Review step not showing up

Hello,
We are running SAP BPC 5.0.505
When defining a BPF, we checked enable reviewers. Now when BPF step is complete "Review required" is showing next to it.
But the reviewer does not get two Reject/Accept radio buttons.
I remember being able to set reviewer steps before in SP3. Is this a new bug in SP4?
BTW, I used AppShell to set a test BPF with reviewer and wasn't able to get it to work either.
Thanks,
Roman

It is a bug in SP4. SP5 fixed it

BPC 7.5 NW - BPF - Secuencial Steps ?

Hi team, there is no way to customize the BPF to ensure that activities are not sequential, with reviewers but not mandatory depending on the finalization them before, we have many branch offices for sales and many cost centers for expenses.
Any idea where configure, some customizing, table ?
Thank you.

The only back end BW tables to customize regarding BPF are those having to do with e-mail notifications. There are no BW customizing tables related to BPF sequence logic.
Whether steps have to be performed in a sequential manner is determined in the BPF template setup. Specifically when each step is added to the BPF you have to define the "Opening Criteria" which has two choices: 1) All step regions and 2) Matched step regions. All step regions means all must have a status of complete before the next step can be opened. Matched step regions means that the next step is opened for the same step region while allowing other regions to remain pending.
For your situation with many different branch offices and cost centers you might want to use Matched Step Regions to allow each to proceed "non sequentially", if I understand your question correctly.
Also don't forget that a BPF does not preclude a user/reviewer doing any task directly in Excel for which they have task security, regardless of the sequence of steps defined in a BPF.

Itouch will not complete step 1 of sync process

iTunes comes up and it recongizes the iTouch and starts the sync process but never completes (not even overnight) step 1 (backing up) of the sync process. We have this set for a manual manage music and videos.
The other iTouch we have (same model and set up to manual manage also) has no issues with the sync.
Looking for how to 'fix' the first iTouch so we can complete a sync.

Welcome to the discussions,
your saved backup for this ipod touch maybe damaged and iTunes can not read it anymore. Go to iTunes/settings/devices and delete the backup, but make sure you select the right one
Making a copy of the backup folder is also a good idea, in case you'll have to use it again.
The location for the folder is here: Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
