BPS Functionalities and Limitations

Hi all,
Can someone give an overview of what can be done and what cannot be done in BPS in NW2004S?

Hi ,
BW-BPS is the beginning of the road towards an integrated planning solution. BW-BPS is not purely financially focused. Some of the functions which were available in SEM-BPS are not there in BW-BPS. Follwoing functions which are part of SEM-BPS are not included in BW-BPS
Offsetting Entry
Accumulate Balances
Depreciation
Net Present Value
Internal Rate of Return
Time Lag Functions
Valuation
Allocation
Rounding
Currency Translation (Account-Based)

PI 7.1 "stateless" service interfaces prerequisites and limitations

are there any prerequisites and limitations for "stateless" Service interfaces.
We are directly implementing PI 7.1, (i.e not upgrading form 7.0 or 3.0).
so for all our service interfaces, shall we safely use tne interface pattern "statelss" instead of "Stateless(xi 3.0 compatible)".
if use the "stateless", are there any addition prerequisites or constraints/limitations.
can we use abap proxies, java proxies, providing webservices via xi, and consuming other webserivces in xi, all adapters, asynch, synch scenarios with "stateless" interface patterns.
In short, are there any things that can be done using "Stateless(xi 3.0 compatible)" and cannot be done using "stateless" interface
are there any specific requirements for using "Stateless(xi 3.0 compatible)" even in newly implemented PI 7.1
thanks in advance,
Madhu.

When it is an upgrade from 7.0 to 7.1 the default Interface pattern is Stateless (XI 30 Compatible)
Using Stateless Interface Patterns wont cause any harm/ restriction on any of the development.
The only twist will be in the way a condition is specified in the Receiver Determination.
For any Interface pattern (other than Stateless(XI30 Compatible)) you wont be able to see the message structure in the Condition Editor of Receiver Determination. All other functionality (Async, Sync, Proxy) will be available.
In such a case Condition should be specified as shown in this blog: /people/abhishek.salvi/blog/2009/07/15/sap-pi71-receiver-determination-xpath-and-you

Hello,
I got almost the same problem.
Im trying to copy existing PR's too, all works well until it comes to services. Functions return says to enter account data etc.
How should i copy service records?
Best regards
P.S. Old function "BAPI_REQUISITION_CREATE" doesnt work because of Unicode system.

HOW TO CONFIGURE GUEST NETWORK AND LIMITE BANDWIDTH

Dear all,
Please help me how to configure internet access rule and limited the bandwidth for guest network via TMG Forefront 2010.
Thanks you & best regards,
Hung Viet

Hi，
First you can create the new network set which is mapped to guest subnet, after that you can create access rule for this network set.
If you want to control bandwidth, you may need 3-party tool like this:http://www.bsplitter.com/

What are the key benefits and limitations of new pricing model of X5-2?

What are the key benefits and limitations of new pricing model that started with X5 version?

1. Elastic Configurations
Size/price hardware by the number of servers; Fixed configs no longer required
Start with 2 Database Servers and 3 Storage Servers. Incrementally add database or storage servers online.
2. Capacity-on-Demand (CoD)
Upon installation, activate 40-100% of the cores per server and reduce software licenses; Applies to Eighth Rack now too
Activate and license more cores when needed; Active cores may not be deactivated
3. OVM and Trusted Partitions
License software on Virtual CPUs within a VM; Ideal for special-purpose DB options
You can mix different combination of options for different DB on one Exadata.
OVM has no License cost; support is included with premier hardware support
Limitation:
At least 40% of usable cores on the machine must be licensed for Oracle software
Cannot use both OVM and CoD to license less than 40% of cores
A server must be virtualized or non-virtualized – not mixed
A RAC cluster can mix virtualized and non-virtualized servers
4. “Flash Drive” License Metric for EF Storage Server Software
$20K/drive; 8 flash drives/EF server vs 12 disk drives/HC server = 33% higher list
Can transfer licenses between Flash Drive (2 licenses/drive) and Disk Drive (1 license/drive) – part # is the same

JTAPI performance and limits

If you are monitoring all call and terminal events for all phones via JTAPI, does it burden your CUCM since it has to respond to your app about these events -- specially when you have more than a thousand phone. Are there some guidelines about JTAPI performance and limits -- i.e maximum number of phones/JTAPI client, etc.

Please check you have enabled AXL updates on the Call Manager side:
For CUCM 4.x
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/dir_plugin/plug413.html
Do you have the CTI Manager service running on the server you're attempting to make a JTAPI Provider?
In CRS 4.x and later, it should create the JTAPI and RM JTAPI users, but it may prompt for CCM 'administrator' credentials to add the users. If you have MLA enabled, this really means the 'ccmadministrator' user or a user with similar privileges.

Level Based vs. Value Based hier: advantages, disadvantages and limitations

Could someone give an overview about the advantages, disadvantages and limitations when comparing OLAP Level to Value based hierarchies?
Thanks,
Marcio

OLAP can handle both types of hierarchies. No performance advantage using one over the other (while loading cube or querying).
If you are "pushing" dimensional-security inside OLAP, in that case also it does not matter.
Cube-based MVs (with query-rewrite) can only be created if the hierarchies are level-based. Are you going to need that?
Generally there are other "non-olap" factors:
(#1). Which reporting tool will be used. Does it provide better reporting capabilities if the source is parent-child or level-based?
(#2). Are there any reporting requirements that will need "level" information when selecting data.
(#3). Are there are any security requirements that will be handled in "reporting-layer" which will need level-based information.
Although in case of (#1) and (#2), you can "expose" an olap's parent-child hierarchy as "level-based" hierarchy to the reporting tool using internal GID (grouping-id) information.
OBIEE 11.1.1.5 (and future versions) works well with OLAP metadata, and with any type of hierarchy in olap.
For other reporting tools, you have to see what features are available.
In short, its the source system, the reporting tool and the reporting requirements that will dictate what type of hierarchy should be stored in OLAP.

T450s and docking stations : don't understand differences and limitations

Hi,
As you may have seen in my previous posts, I leave my previous company and my good old X220. So I am really wondering if I upgrade or not to the new T450s, or if I search for a X220/X230/T420s/T430s refurbished.
One of my main concern, is the total display size when docked. I used to use quad FHD screens on my old X220, and I was thinking about increasing again the total display size by replacing 2 FHD screen by 1 4K monitor. However, it seems impossible to run 1 4K and 2 FHD simultaneously.
So my question is, Where can I find the differences and limitations of the docking stations available for the T450s regarding the display size ability ?
On the product sheet of the docking stations , Lenovo said "* Some of the video ports have exclusive use and are also dependent on the docked ThinkPad configuration".
Ok, but where can I have this information ?
Many thanks for your answers,

According to https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/quick-reference-guide-to-intel-processor-graphics,
For HD5500 on U processor :
Independent Digital Displays : Yes (at most, 3 displays may be supported at one time)
Maximum Display Resolution : U-Processors: 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz
So 4 displays won't be possible on T450s.
So, I guess, you can run :
1 4K display @ 60hz
OR
something like 3 FHD/WUXGA displays
If someone can confirm...

Why is asking a question to Firefox so difficult, and limited to a limited number of 'characters'?

Why is asking a question to Firefox so difficult, and limited to a limited number of 'characters'?

Sorry for the confusion; it seems as though I am the one confused--after jumping through several hoops, I thought I was sending a question to the Firefox help support...my question was about 7 characters too long to send, apparently.

Compare the strengths and limitations of the Web Parts
It’s important that you understand the strengths and limitations of the two Web Parts because if you choose the wrong one, your site could run into performance problems. You can use both Web Parts to show content that is based on a query. In a simplified
world, here’s how you can decide between the two:
Use the CQWP when you have a limited amount of content, your query is simple, and you don’t expect your content to grow much in the future.
Use the CSWP in all other scenarios when you want to show content that is based on a query.
The table below gives a comparison of the two Web Parts:
Web Part behavior
Content Query Web Part
Content Search Web Part
Query configuration
Easy
You’ll need to know about certain search features such as
managed properties.
Query across large amounts of content
Limited
Yes
Handle complex queries
Limited
Yes
Scale to handle future content growth
Limited
Yes
Display content from other site collections
No
Yes (see
section below)
Design of query results can be customized
Yes, by using XSLT.
Yes, by using HTML.
Maintenance cost in a complex site architecture
High
Small (see
section below)
Narrow down the query results that are displayed in the Web Part
No
Yes, in combination with the
Refinement Web Part.

Changing Look and Feel - BPS status and tracking system

HI,
I 'd like to know if there is a way to customize the web page that appears when you launch the transaction BPS_STS_START (Starts BPS Status and Tracking System). I believe that it's an automatically generated page, that takes from somewhere an html template. Is there a way to change that html template?
For example, how could I insert a logo, insert titles, change fonts, etc.
I 'll appreciate if somebody send me some related documentation.
Thanks in advance.
Cristian.

Hi Christian,
the STS is a BSP-Application(have a look at TA SE80).
You can copy this BSP to your own customer-namespace(YTUNGUSKA) and you can change all pages and views you would like. You can integrate other stylesheets, logos or you can modify the logic of events triggered by buttons and so on. Please note: If you copy the TUNGUSKA you cannot use anymore the TA BPS_STS_START cause it only will start the BSP TUNKUSKA(its hardcoded), build up your own transaction.
Hope it helps
Bye Gil

Creating CT/VT devices and limiting devices

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I have to create devices other than meters like CT, VT, and Limiting devices. I beleive I have to create a device category for them.
My question is : Do CT/VT devices come under "transformer" basic device categories? I also need help in what parameters I should configure in the 'winding groups' required for setting up the device category for transformers.
What Basic Device Category do limiting devices come into? Do they a need a register group? Because I have to give a register group or winding group (for transformers) while creating the device in IQ01.
Any help is highly appreciated!

Hello,
Below basic details are required for Winding group cretaion.
Transform. typ
CT or VT
Winding categ
Primary/Secondary
Winding Type
Measuring Winding
Transform.curr.
for CT
Transf. voltage
for VT
Propose PW
Sec. is default
Thanks,

Broken lock button and limited headphone connectivity covered?

Would a broken lock button and limited headphone connectivity be covered in the 1 year limited warranty?
It's hardware, but I'm unsure if it's counted as physical damage or not. It's a long drive to an Apple store and I don't want to waste gas to get a 'no'.

Covered by warranty unless the damage is due to abuse. If the iPod is all beat up and dented Apple may say it is due to abuse. If it just shows normal wear it should be covered under warranty.

BPS - Hierarchy variable: limitations in planning folders...

Hi,
We are using a variable of type hierachy for the selection of the cost centers within the planning folders across our cost center planning application.
We are using a hierarchy with roundabout 5000 cost centers. The variable forces the user to expand the hierarchy to the desired level in order to select the cost center. There is no way to enter the cost
center manually when using the hierarchy variable, and no search function is available to find a cost center in the hierarchy.
Those are cumbersome limitations especially when users are used to the R/3 or BW hierarchy search.
Is there any way BPS can allow for direct input (in addition to selection via the hierarchy) when using hierarchy variables, or a least a search function?
Thanks!!
Olivier

I don't know if this will help in your situation but I have a similar variable based on Profit Centre. Within the hierarchy the users are responsible for a small number of Profit Centre Groups (defined as hierarchy nodes in the tree). I have set the variable as user specific and each user has the Profit Centre Groups assigned that they are responsible for.
This variable is then linked to a variable selector, as a dropdown, within my web app and only allows the user to select Profit Centre Groups they are responsible for. When an entry is chosen the Profit Centres below that part of the hierarchy are displayed in the layout.

Mat
