Business Add-ins (BAdl) for external ATP system

Hello.
We want to check if it is possible to use following BADI, if we assume that the R/3 is an external System?
You connect an external ATP system by implementing the following Business Add-ins (BAdls):
CRM ATP_EXTERN_BADI for carrying out availability check or availability information using an external system
CRM ATP_EX_POST_BADI for posting the results in an external system
We want to use this BADI in the Internet Sales Scenario, to build our own rule, in order to check if in the whole Company exists enough quantity, independently to the plant. The idea is the customer can receive the information about there is enough quantity to buy or not.
Kind Regards

Business Add-Ins for Purchasing

hi Gurus
can any one explain me how to keep seetings in business Add-Ins for Purchasing

Hi
To implement BAdIs, you need advanced knowledge of ABAP
Standard settings
In the standard system, the Business Add-In is not active.
You create business add-in definitions using transaction SE18. They contain the business add-in interface. In the application code the instance variable is typed according to this interface. You can create several implementations for each add-in definition.
There are two main types of BADI definitions:
Multiple use - that is, there can be several active implementations
Filter-dependent - that is, you apply a filter value to each method called (for example, a country). A different (active) implementation is then called for each value. Possible filter values are characterized by the filter type.
for finding the BAdi's for Purchasing goto SE18, Click F4, Click on Infiormation system, give Package as ME.
List of BAdi's will be displayed
Thanks & Regards

What is business add-ins and business transaction events

Dear All,
Would you mind tell me what it sht business add-ins and business transaction events ?
i still not understand about this after i read the training material
Regards
Luke

Hi LukeWong ,
BAdi:
SAP Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) are one of the most important technologies used to adapt SAP software to specific requirements. BAdIs were introduced with Release 4.6 and replace function module exits. This technology is not limited to SAP applications. BAdI calls can be integrated in customer applications. These can then be enhanced by other customer applications. In the various SAP applications, BAdI calls are implemented at places where enhancements are appropriate.Business add-ins are enhancements to the standard version of the system. They can be inserted into the SAP System to accommodate user requirements too specific to be included in the standard delivery. Since specific industries often require special functions, SAP allows you to predefine these points in your software.
As with customer exits, two different views are available:
· In the definition view, an application programmer defines exit points in a source that allow specific industry sectors, partners, and customers to attach additional coding to standard SAP source code, without having to modify the original object.
· In the implementation view, the users of Business Add-Ins can customize the logic they need or use a standard solution, if one is available.
In contrast to customer exits, Business Add-Ins no longer assume a two-level infrastructure (SAP and customer solutions), but instead allow for a multi-level system landscape (SAP, country-specific versions, industry solutions, partner, customer, and so on). You can create definitions and implementations of Business Add-Ins at any level of the system landscape.SAP guarantees the upward compatibility of all Business Add-In interfaces. Release upgrades do not affect enhancement calls from within the standard software nor do they affect the validity of call interfaces. You do not have to register Business Add-Ins in SSCR.
The Business Add-In enhancement technique differentiates between enhancements that can only be implemented once and enhancements that can be used actively by any number of customers at the same time. In addition, Business Add-Ins can be defined according to filter values. This allows you to differentiate between Add-In implementations using the filter Country or other criteria.
The enhancement technique is set up in such a way that it is possible to define interfaces for ABAP soure code, screens, GUI interfaces, and tables. These allow customers to include their own enhancements in the standard. A single Business Add-In contains all of the interfaces necessary to implement a specific task.
BADI is just an object-oriented version of user-exit. Instead of entering program code into some function module (as in customer-exit), you define some class which has to implement predefined methods and those methods are fired at predefined points just like an old user-exit. Some BADI can have multiple independent implementations which is much better for software deployment as several developers can implement the same BADI independently. BADI/UserExists are used to enhance R/3 For customer Needs.
Actually there is no transaction to find when and where the BADI
is called.
1. You can see the BADI description to find why it is called.
2. Once you implemented and activated the BADI, put some break points
in the BADI and see "where else used" option to check in what all
programs this BADI is called. In the ITS debug, when you are doing
the operation what exactly the BADI description tells, it will take
to the break points and you have to do manually debug the whole thing.
I know its bit difficult to do manual debug the whole thing, it
takes lot of time, but you have to be very patience when you are
dealing with BADI's.
Transaction SE18 is the BADI equivalent of transaction SMOD
Transaction SE19 is the BADI equivalent of transaction CMOD .
To find the BADI to be implemented and then implement this via SE19.
These steps should enable you to find any BADI related to any transaction in a matter of minutes.
Procedure 1:
1) Go to the transaction SE37 to find your function module.
2) Locate the function SXV_GET_CLIF_BY_NAME.
3) Put a breakpoint there.
4) Now open a new session.
5) Go to your transaction. 6) At that time, it will stop this function.
7) Double click on the function field EXIT_NAME.
8) That will give you name of the BADI that is provided in your transaction.
Business Add-Ins
Procedure 2:
1) Goto se24 (Display class cl_exithandler)
2) Double click on the method GET_INSTANCE.
3) Put a break point at Line no.25 (CASE sy-subrc).
4) Now Execute SAP standard transaction
5) Press the required button for which you need to write an exit logic, the execution will stop at the break point.
6) Check the values of variable 'exit_name', it will give you the BADI name called at that time.
7) This way you will find all the BADIs called on click of any button in any transaction

Business Transaction Events
Business Transaction Events (Open FI) The Open FI enhancement technique was developed in the Financial Accounting component. Open FI is based upon the following principles: Application developers must define their interface in a function module, an assignment table is read in the accompanying (generated) code, and the customer modules assigned are called dynamically. This technique differentiates between enhancements that are only allowed to have one implementation and enhancements that can call multiple implementations in any sequence desired. Both industry-specific and country-specific enhancements may be defined.
SAP business transaction events are one type of customer enhancements provided by SAP! We can access the business transaction events using FIBF.Next we have to find the process interface for duplicate invoice check!

Posting in foreign currency not allowed for external tax system

Hello all,
I created a purchase order for inter-company stock transfer. Then created a corresponding outbound delivery and goods issue using VL10h and completed goods issue. Then I completed good receipt using MIGO. When I was trying to create a sales order I got this message "Posting in foreign currency not allowed for external tax system". What could be the reasons for this message. The message number said FS885.
One final note. I am able to create Billing document with manual batch number input in Delivery document item. But when I am using Batch split I am not able to generate invoice. Can anyone tell me what could be the problem here.

Hi Samir,
The Goods Received NI (Allocation Cost Account) need to be balaned in Local and System Currency as this is a Multi Currency account and these are the currencies that Business One will offer reports in.
The Foreign Currency for this account is irrelevant as you can never get a balance in FC for a multi currency account, neither will you find any reports for this.
If the client insists you can create a manual Journal entry in FC only to correct this. Business One does not offer any functionality to correct the Foreign Currency in this scenario. (like Exchange Rate difference for Local Currency and Conversion Differences for System Currency)
To do the manual JE open the form settings and the tab 'table', here untick the box 'From FC Field'. This will enable you to create a FC JE only.
Hope it clarifies the issue.

Java Add-In Installation for EHP4 ERP system

Hello!
we successfully upgraded our SAP ERP system to EHP4 for SAP.
Our system has only ABAP stack.
Question
1) Is it possible to install a Java Add-In instance for the existing EHP4 system?
2) If yes, can this be done on the same Windows server?
Thank you very much!

Specific Requirements
Take the following specific requirements of the new installation process into consideration:
- The previous SAPInst installation service Java Add-In in SAP ERP 6.0/SAP NetWeaver
7.0 was able to add Java usage types such as EPC, or EP, to existing ABAP-only
systems. This was possible only, if you added AS Java at the same time. The option of a
Java Add-In installation is not any longer available as of the enhancement package 4 for
SAP ERP 6.0. Thus, it is not any longer possible, for example, to add EPC and EP
together with AS Java to an ABAP-only system.
[SAP Enhancement Package 4 for SAP ERP 6.0|https://websmp201.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000772192007E]
There are many links on SDN discussing ERP EHP 4 dual stack:
[Re: EHP4 Dual stack;
[ECC 6.0 - EHP4 - Client Import;
Hope this helps.

from our ECC system to our PI 7.1 and did first tests.
I'm getting response to my requests from the ECC system.
But in the response, there are only the production order IDs for the requested work centre.
I suppose that the BAdI PORD_SE_PRODUCTIONORDERSWQR, mentioned in service description, has to be activated for the service in the ECC system, to get all the other optional production order elements, defined in the service response message type.
Am I right?
Which steps in the ECC backend are neccessary to activate a BAdI for an enterprise service?

AAT Apple Advanced Typography for the writing systems of world scripts

Thomas Gewecke writes:
If I had to choose one problem which does exist and causes considerable practical difficulties for a lot of people, it would be that lack of full OpenType support in OS X (and the resulting requirement for rare AAT fonts) makes it impossible for Mac users to do everything they might want in a number of important scripts, or to do anything at all in quite a few others.
This is a frequently asked question, so perhaps the simplest solution is to try to support this in a separate thread. It is probably preferable to repeat what Apple has published on the Unicode mailing list on the subject of writing systems in world scripts. A link to a supplier of AAT fonts for lesser languages is included in the references (Bassa, Brahmi, Burmese, Cambodian, Georgian, Inuktitut, Kannada, Laotian, Lepcha, Limbu, Malayalam, N'ko, Osmanya, Sinhala, Tai Le, Tamil, Telugu, Tibetan ...). The most advanced Arabic implementation is Mishafi from Diwan in London - this has earned praise on Typophile. There are several independent software publishers (aside from Apple iWork) that support authoring with AAT Apple Advanced Typography.
According to the Apple Unicode Liason, Deborah Goldsmith, as of OS X 10.2 it is possible for the small type maker to support a writing system in a world script through the optional Apple MORX Metamorphosis Extended tables in the SFNT Spline Font file format. Dropping an SFNT and an input method into the operating system adds the shaping for the writing system. And according to the Apple Unicode Liason, as of OS X 10.4 the optional Apple MORX tables for complex composition and the optional Microsoft GSUB tables for complex composition may peacefully cohabit in the selfsame SFNT Spline Font file (leaving aside the issue of whether this is sound advice, or whether sound advice should say that an SFNT should contain either TrueType or Type 1, either MORX or GSUB - not both in either case).
Hope this helps,
Henrik

http://www.typophile.com/node/18098

Please pardon any speedwriting in the following - it's off the cuff :
From the little I understand about the technical details of the differences between AAT and OpenType, I'd guess AAT to be the superior system, from the user's (or font designer's) point of view.
The issue is the business model. Apple TrueType 2 and Apple ColorSync 2 were developed to provide very, very, very highend character:glyph transforms and colour:colourant transforms in an application-independent manner.
The application model was Java and OpenDoc and while OpenDoc is defunct, as is Taligent, Java within which AAT is embedded is alive and kicking. In the application model the idea was that the small developer did not have to independently do elements outside the scope of the application.
Similarly, a graphics library was available to avoid the problem that PostScript is inherently unreliable as it is a programming model that can be used to extend the PostScript graphics model, causing PostScript programs to crash at critical times.
Software publishers in the nineteen-nineties published software for the standalone personal computer with its suite of standalone software. And the standalone software had its own Application Programming Interface that locked XTensions, Plug-ins and more into one and only one suite.
Adobe did NOT want QuickDraw GX and Adobe still has a 'white' paper in which the company states that the idea of the SFNT Spline Font file format as an application-independent product that takes over large parts of line layout is objectionable.
The pendulum does not stand still, however. In the 1970s there were terminals for time-shared centralised computing. In the 1980s and 1990s there were decentralised 'personal' computers in local area networks with their own storage and with graphic displays and printers.
The growth of instructure, both in terms of distributed networking and in terms of an international character set, permits a blend of time-shared computing and 'personal' graphics computing which was intended e.g. with the Apple MessagePad and with Java (Amelio married the ideas).
Apple bled external and internal developers with the late lamented GX and the application model was ten years ahead of its time. Modern imaging models are founded on the ideas implemented in GX and absolutely NOT on the ideas implemented in PostScript and PDF.
Jonathan Seybold told Apple to do an application for pagination, since an application for pagination is the sine qua non for a composition model, a separation model, and a document model (the Apple Portable Digital Document model).
Apple did not do that as it would have caused increased commercial conflict with Adobe, Quark and Macromedia at a time when hardcopy production was still the high end of the Apple product portfolio, and so while ColorSync survived TrueType as prosumer and pro solution suffered.
Ironically, XTT's developer did manage at one time to make his primary Tibetan font usable in both Mac and Windows environments -- by somehow combining AAT and OpenType elements within it -- but his considerable effort was then torpedoed, I gather, by some (unannounced, as usual) changes Apple made in font implementation in 10.4.
Deborah Goldsmith gave bad advice on the Unicode mailing list, I'm sorry but it was not sound technically. Dov Isaacs, Adobe's technical quality manager, gave sound advice in saying that Type 1 splines and TrueType splines should not be housed in the selfsame SFNT Spline Font file. I read what the Xenotype developer posted, and Apple bungled as Apple has bungled other important things like supporting a decent international default separation for ColorSync. There is no excuse whatsoever - if Apple cannot use Apple software with Apple defaults to do a decent job then Apple needs to find out whether it is working for Apple customers or is working for itself.
I don't know what might be necessary to make it possible for Mac users to employ OpenType fonts for complex scripts, but I can't believe that this goal is simply beyond the capabilities of Apple's engineers. Nor do I understand why Apple seems to keep, well, stalling on this issue.
The answer lies in the document model, not in the internationalisation model or in the SFNT imaging model. I am not an expert on Indic scripts (I don't speak or write any of them), but as I understand the matter Indic calligraphic scripts are simulated typographically using a feature called insertion that splits one character code into two glyph codes for vowels.
This type of typographic simulation does not pose problems if you are authoring with the aim of archiving and accessing hardcopy, since your audience is not interacting with the character string, but if you are authoring, archiving, and accessing softcopy then simulation methods such as insertion and bidirectionality may pose problems.
Specifically, if in the process of producing your softcopy pagination you loose the source character stream and the mapping of said character stream to the reshaped and reordered glyph stream, then you have to try to synthesise the character stream. And the more complex the reshaping and reordering, the less likely you are to get a successful simulation.
This is the issue between Adobe PDF produced from PostScript and Microsoft XPS which retains as well the source character stream as the mapping of the character stream to the glyph stream. Adobe PDF, by contrast, is basically a viewable graphic of the glyph stream - Adobe PDF does not even retain semantics for reshaping of formal Danish typography.
Hope this helps,
Henrik

ALE FOR HRM - EREC SYSTEMS

Hi all..
We are trying to configure ALE between Ecc Hr and EREC systems.
what we did :
3 badi imlementations were activated in HRM and EREC systems.
1. created logical system and assigned cleint.
2. created RFC connection and determined RFC dewstinations.
3. created Model view , added HRMD_A message type and created filers.
4. Generated profiles and distributed models.
5. Using Tcode Pfal for message type HRMD_A, for a ORG unit , we had sent data and IDOC status shows green with message reciever available , no filters, no conversions.
Issue :
But this org unit is not sent to EREC.
Differences :
1. In EREC system : Model is available with message type HRMD_A , but filters are not availale which are active in HRM ecc system.
2. in EREC , PFAL transaction : message type HRMD_B is comming by default and is in disabled mode, so even cannot change the message type. Even found that in table HRMD_A ia not available.
Please let us know , wether we should create the filters manually in EREC system or should we create HRMD_A message type manulally.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Ravi

Application Link Enabling (ALE)
You distribute data using ALE if you want to communicate from one system to
one or more other (mostly internal) systems. ALE transfers data in IDoc format and uses the methods of tRFC for data transfer.
· ALE enables the integration of business processes across several SAP or non-SAP systems.
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
You use EDI if you want to exchange business application documents with an (external) partner system (for example, a customer or vendor). The SAP system sends EDI messages in IDoc format to an EDI subsystem, where they are converted to a universal EDI standard (UN/EDIFACT or ANSI/X12). This enables communication with non-SAP systems.

SCOT configuration for internal & external email system in EP.

Hi,
I want to add SCOT configuration for internal & external email system in SAP EP 7.0 ?
What all steps I need to do ? any good documents on this ?

Hi Haider,
I have read the link you have given me to configure SCOT. I have 3 doubt plzz clarify.
Doubt No. 1:
In that link its mentioned that I have to add 2 profile parameter in the transaction RZ10 namely icm/server_port_<>* and is/SMTP/virt_host_<>*
My question is Can I put any value which i like in place of * like can I add either icm/server_port_2 OR icm/server_port_3 OR icm/server_port_4 in icm parameter AND ALSO
Can I put any value which i like in place of * in is/SMTP/virt parameter like can I add either is/SMTP/virt_host_0 OR is/SMTP/virt_host_1 OR is/SMTP/virt_host_2 .
Doubt No. 2:
What port value I have to put in the profile parameter    icm/server_port_2 in RZ10. Can I put any port value ? and automatically that port will work? say suppose I addded this profile parameter in RZ10
icm/server_port_2 = PROT=SMTP,PORT=25000,TIMEOUT=180          so automatically 25000 port will work ? or will it give error?
Doubt No. 3:
When I go to SMICM transaction and go to services , I get the following:
No. Log         Service name/port     Host name           Keep Alive    Proc TimeOut   Active
1     HTTP               8000                  epv.sopm.com           30                     60               Yes
2     SMTP               0                       epv.sopm.com            30                    60                Yes
3     HTTPS             8001                 epv.sopm.com            30                    180               Yes
This means that HTTP port is 8000,   HTTPS port is 8001. My question is why in SMTP its showing 0, why no port is shown?
I have not added any profile parameter like icm/server_port_2 = PROT=SMTP,PORT=25000,TIMEOUT=180     for SMTP in RZ10 as of now.
Is this the reason for this ?

How do I sign my VB / VS 2010 based shared COM add-in for Excel so it loads when the user has checked "Require application add-ins to be signed by a trusted publisher"?

My COM add-in is developed using VS 2010 and VB. It's a shared COM add-in (not VSTO) and it works with Excel 2007 - 2013. My installer is signed with a code signing certificate but it would appear that my add-in's .dll should also be signed if the user has
checked the "Require application add-ins to be signed by a trusted publisher" option.
The "Sign the assembly" option is checked in my add-in's VB -> My Project -> Signing. I have a .snk file selected which I seem to recall generating 6 or 7 years ago when I ported the COM add-in from VB6 to .NET.
I have an up-to-date Comodo code signing certificate (a pfx file called MyCompanyCodeSigningCertificatePrivateKey.pfx) which I purchased to use with the installer and was wondering if and how I could use this.
I tried selecting my pfx file in the My Project -> Signing -> "Choose a strong name key file" dialog. It made a copy of the pfx file in my project folder but when I tried to build the project, I got the following error:
Error 1 Cannot import the following key file: MyCompanyCodeSigningCertificatePrivateKey.pfx. The key file may be password protected. To correct this, try to import the certificate again or manually install the certificate to the Strong Name CSP with the
following key container name: VS_KEY_C0B6F251F0FB6016
After a little research, I found out I might be able to use signtool to sign the dll in a post-build step.
I added the following command to the post-build event, before the command I use to regasm the assembly.
"path to signtool\signtool" sign /f "MyCompanyCodeSigningCertificatePrivateKey.pfx" /p "xxxx" /v "$(TargetPath)"
When I built the project, the dll appeared to get signed (the output window showed a bunch of confirming text as well as "Successfully signed: c:\MyAddIn\bin\Release\MyAddIn.dll") but the next step in the post-build (regasm myaddin.dll /codebase)
issued a warning RA0000 (see below) but reported "Types registered successfully".
Here's the message I get from regasm, even though the output window says the dll was sucessfully signed:
RegAsm : warning RA0000: Registering an unsigned assembly with /codebase can cause your assembly to interfere with other applications that may be installed on the same computer. The /codebase switch is intended to be used only with signed assemblies. Please give your assembly a strong name and re-register it.
Types registered successfully
I'm not using a shim if that makes a difference.
How do I sign my add-in so it loads when the user has checked "Require application add-ins to be signed by a trusted publisher"?
Any tips would be appreciated.

Hello,
Why do you need to use the regasm utility from the post-build action?
There is a difference between signing the assembly with a strong name and digital signature. The
How to: Sign an Assembly with a Strong Name article in MSDN explains how to sign an assembly with a strong name (.snk). See
How to digitally sign a strong named assembly for adding a digital signature.
