Can I query class created in current transaction?

I want to do the following:
manager.currentTransaction().begin();
manager.makePersistent(myObject);
Query q = manager.newQuery(myObject.getClass());
Collection objs = (Collection)q.execute();
manager.currentTransaction().commit();
and I want myObject to show up in the objects collection. Is there a way
to do that?
I thought of using read-uncommitted as the transaction isolation level,
but Oracle complained when I tried that.
Overrall what I'm trying to do is write unit tests such that I can set up
the test data, run the test, and rollback the transaction to clean it all
up.
Thanks!

It worked great.
This is just for code testing, so performance isn't critical.
Thanks!

Set the query's IgnoreCache property to false:
q.setIgnoreCache (false);
You can also set this property at the PM level (affecting all queries
and extents from that PM) and the PMF level via the
javax.jdo.option.IgnoreCache setting (affecting everything).
However, note that if you are not ignoring PM cache changes and do not
set kodo.FlushBeforeQueries to true, we will have to perform the query
in-memory, which is a very slow process compared to database queries.

Including uncommited data in extents from current transaction

Is there a way to tell KODO to include uncommitted data in it's extent query
results from the current transactions.
i.e.
Start Transaction
find persistent object 1
if not found run generic add persistent object 1 function
find persistent object 1
Make further changes to persistent object
End Transaction

Graham-
Yes: set IgnoreCache to false. Queries and Extents will when pick up and
new/modified instances in the cache.
See the caveats in the docs, and control the performance with the
FlushBeforeQueries configuration parameter.

Can not create follow up transaction FS Quotation from Lead in Interaction

Dear All,
We have requirement wherein IC agent should be able create FS Quotation (Transaction type FSO1) from Lead transaction type in WEB UI.
I have made all the necessary cutomization for copy control. FS Quotation is also maintained for all chanel.
Its work fine in CRM Online. I can create FS Quotation from Lead transaction type but in WEB UI when I click on Follow up button from Lead transaction pop will appear but I can not see FS Quotation in pop up window.
What I found after investigation is that transaction type with Financial Contract as Leading business category can not be available for follow up from Lead in web ui but available in CRM online. When I change the leading business category to another one same transaction type can be seen for Follow up from Lead in web ui.
Please let me know if you have any suggestion or faced similar kind of issue.
Regards
Pankaj Vispute

Hello Pankaj,
Yes, I have discovered this behavior as well. It seems to be documented in SAP Note 1172066. Apparently only the four following category classes are allowed:
'A' : Interaction Log
'F' : Appointment
'G' : E-Mail
'H' : Task

John

Creating a query that provides a default transaction type for those transactions not categorized?

How could I create a query that provides a default transaction type for those transactions not categorized?
So assuming I have:
* Transactions table (with transactions)
* Categories table
* transactions_categories table - allows to allocate multiple categories (with a percentage)
- tranactionID
- categoryID
- percentageAllocation
* Usage is such that only non-personal categories have been applied through out data. So there is a lot of transactions with no categories applied
Aim:
* Want to create a query that creates a list of all the allocated amounts, so would include as columns: transaction.tDate, transaction.tTitle, categories.name, allocatedAmount(calculated from percentage * transaction amount)
BUT:
* How could I include in the query, the entries that cover all transaction that haven't been allocated, to a default category "personal", where the allocated Amount would be 100% of the transaction value
* And also (if it were possible), for transactions that have been categorized but not for the complete transaction value (say only 50% was allocated to a category), how to to cover this off to.

To default the value of the category:
select IIf(IsNull(Category),"Personal",Category) as Category,IIf(IsNull(Category),"100%",PercentageAllocation
) as PercentageAllocation from [yourtable]
What do you want to put the values of these ones:
And also (if it were possible), for transactions that have been categorized but not for the complete transaction
value (say only 50% was allocated to a category), how to to cover this off to.

Can't query, create table in WAS

hi everyone:
I encounted a problem when I query a table in WAS.
I find if I create a table by SAPDB console, then when I query that table in WAS. It always tells me "can't find that table". If I create and delpoy table by netweaver studio dictionary prospective, then I can query that table successfully in WAS. Anther thing is that I can't create a table by sql "create table..." in WAS. It always throws Exception likes below:
com.sap.sql.log.OpenSQLException: The SQL statement "CREATE TABLE "TEST2" ("C_NAME" VARCHAR(20) UNICODE DEFAULT ' ' )" contains the syntax error[s]: Open SQL syntax error: CREATE ... TABLE is not supported
SQL syntax error: "VARCHAR" is a reserved keyword and cannot be used as an unquoted identifier
I think maybe SAP WAS using open sql causes those Exception. Can someone tell me how to create a table in java program when I use open sql? Can I query tables which are not deployed by NetWeaver studio dictionary?
thanks

On Amex web site, can not down load my current transactions. Work fine with IE.

I can view my current transactions, but the download tab does not work. I call Amex and they are aware of the problem and said it was a FireFox problem to fix. IE work fine.

Since it is a firefox problem our team should be in the know about if not already. I will file a bug for you. But first is there an error message that goes with it or what happens when you try to click on the download tab. Thanks!

Not flushing changes made in current transaction

I encounter a problem that KODO doesn't flush changes made in current
transaction. I'm using an external transaction manager (JOTM) and XA
datasource (xapool). From the console output, I know I have an active
transaction. According to the KODO automatic flush behaviour
(http://solarmetric.com/Software/Documentation/3.1.2/docs/ref_guide_dbsetup_retain.html),
given kodo.FlushBeforeQueries is true and kodo.ConnectionRetainMode is
transaction, flush should happen before query.
The code is something like this:
userTransaction.begin();
String field1 = "abc";
long field2 = 10L;
String field3 = "123";
Foo foo = new Foo(); // Foo's PK is field1, field2 and field3.
foo.setField1(field1);
foo.setField2(field2);
foo.setField3(field3);
foo1(foo);
Collection foos = foo2(field1, field2);
System.out.println("foos.isEmpty()? : " + foos.isEmpty());
userTransaction.commit();
public void foo1(Foo foo)
PersistenceManager pm = null;
try
pm = getPersistenceManager();
System.out.println("PM.TX: " + pm.currentTransaction() + " active:
" + pm.currentTransaction().isActive());
pm.makePersistent(foo);
catch (ResourceException e)
e.printStackTrace();
finally
if (pm != null && !pm.isClosed())
pm.close();
public Collection foo2(String field1, long field2)
PersistenceManager pm = null;
StringBuffer filter = new StringBuffer();
HashMap parameters = new HashMap();
StringBuffer paramList = new StringBuffer();
Extent ex = null;
Query query = null;
Collection result = null;
Collection result1 = new ArrayList();
Long field2Long = new Long(field2);
try
pm = getPersistenceManager();
System.out.println("PM.TX: " + pm.currentTransaction() + " active:
" + pm.currentTransaction().isActive());
ex = pm.getExtent(Foo.class, true);
filter.append("field1 == paramField1");
filter.append(" && field2 == paramField2");
paramList.append("String paramField1");
paramList.append(" , Long paramField2");
parameters.put("paramField1", field1);
parameters.put("paramField2", field2Long);
query = pm.newQuery(ex, filter.toString());
query.declareParameters(paramList.toString());
result = (Collection) query.executeWithMap(parameters);
catch (ResourceException e)
e.printStackTrace();
finally
if (pm != null && !pm.isClosed())
pm.close();
return result;
From the console,
PM.TX: kodo.runtime.PersistenceManagerImpl@b34b1 active: true
PM.TX: kodo.runtime.PersistenceManagerImpl@b34b1 active: true
foos.isEmpty()? true
If the userTransaction is committed before invoking foo2(), then, the Foo
object is created and foos.isEmpty() returns false.
I am using KODO version: 3.1.2. Here is the kodo.properties:
javax.jdo.PersistenceManagerFactoryClass:
kodo.jdbc.runtime.JDBCPersistenceManagerFactory
javax.jdo.option.Optimistic: true
javax.jdo.option.RetainValues: true

kodo.FlushBeforeQueries: true
kodo.ConnectionRetainMode: transaction
kodo.jdbc.VerticalQueryMode=base-tables
kodo.TransactionMode: managed
kodo.ManagedRuntime :
invocation(TransactionManagerMethod=foo.TransactionManagerUtil.getTransactionManager)

Any ideas are appreciated.

Do you get the same behavior with local transactions?
I don't see anything immediately wrong with your code, but all our internal
tests are passing, and no other user has reported a problem.In a single transaction, I'm using multiple persistence managers which are
closed after usage (method foo1() and foo2() gets different persistence
managers and close them before return). I don't think I can use local
transactions, can I?

An Invalid Setup has been detected for the current Transaction Type in AME

Gurus,
I am constantly getting an error An Invalid Setup has been detected for the current Transaction Type in Approvals Management
My client have 3 units say A,B,C. A requirement is such that whenever a vacancy is created, an approval should be sought from units HR manager.
I have created a dynamic query for this and it is working fine for first two units say A & B. i.e. whenever somebody from unit A or B creates a vacancy it is correctly fetching the
respective units managers. But, this whole AME is not working for unit C. An error pops out which says *An Invalid Setup has been detected for the current Transaction Type in
Approvals Management* . Can anybody tell me what can be the issue?

Creating standard roles transaction

Hello,
Please let me know transaction code of standard roles creation in SAP Business Workflow.
Regards,
Amey

Create Roles
The role also contains the authorizations users need to access the transactions, reports, web-based applications and so on, contained in the menu.
You can assign a role to an unlimited number of users.
Procedure
To create a single role:
1.     Choose the pushbutton Create role or the transaction PFCG in the initial transaction SAP Easy Access. You go to the role maintenance.
2.     Specify a name for the role.
The roles delivered by SAP have the prefix 'SAP_'. Do not use the SAP namespace for your user roles.
SAP does not distinguish between the names of simple and composite roles. You should adopt your own naming convention to distinguish between simple and composite roles.
3.     Choose Basic maintenance (in the Profile, Other objects menu).
4.     Choose Create.
5.     Enter a meaningful role description text. You can describe the activities in the role in detail.
You may use an existing role as a reference.
6.     Assign transactions, programs and/or web addresses to the role in the Menu tab. The user menu which you create here is called automatically when the user to whom this role is assigned logs on to the SAP System. You can create the authorizations for the transactions in the role menu structure in the authorizations tab.
If you want to call the transactions in a role in another system, enter the RFC destination of the other system in the Target system field.
You should only use RFC destinations which were created using the Trusted System concept () to guarantee that the same user is used in the target system. This is only necessary if you want to navigate via the Easy Access Menu in the SAPgui.
If you use the Workplace Web Browser, you can use any destination containing a logical system with the same name.
If the Target system field is empty, the transactions are called in the system in which the user is logged on.
You can also specify a variable which refers to an RFC destination. Variables are assigned to the RFC destinations in the transaction SM30_SSM_RFC.
To distribute the role into a particular target system, specify the target system (its Release must be 4.6C) and choose Distribute. This function is most useful when you use the Workplace.
You can create the user menu:
o     from the SAP menu
You can copy complete menu branches from the SAP menu by clicking on the cross in front of it in the user menu. Expand the menu branch if you want to put lower-level nodes or individual transactions/programs in the user menu.
o     from a role
this function copies a defined role menu structure in the same system into the current role. You can also copy the menu structure of a role delivered by SAP. Click on the menu branches and copy them.
o     from an area menu
You can copy area menus (SAP Standard and your own) into a role menu. Choose an area menu from the list of menus and copy the transactions you want.
o     Import from file
See Upload/Download roles.
o     Transaction
You can put a transaction code in the user menu directly.
o     Program
This function puts programs, transaction variants or queries in the user menu. They need not be given a transaction code.
ABAP Report
Choose a report and a variant. You can skip the selection screen.
You can generate a transaction code automatically and copy the report description by setting checkboxes.
SAP Query
Enter a user group and query name. If the query has a variant, you can specify it. You can also specify a global query. See Query work areas.
Transactions with variants
The system administrator can create transaction variants in the SAP System Personalization. Transaction variants adjust complex SAP System transactions to customer business processes, by e.g. hiding superfluous information and adding other information such as pushbuttons, text or graphics. You can put a transaction variant call in a user menu by entering the transaction code and variant which you created in the transaction SHD0.
BW report
Include a Business Information Warehouse report. Enter the report ID.
ReportWriter, Search, Report
These function put other application-specific report types in the user menu.
o     Others
Enter other objects:
Web address or file
Enter internet/intranet links with a descriptive text and the web address. You can enter a file name if the browser can call an application.
Drag and relate component
Enter the component name.
Knowledge Warehouse link
Use the Document field possible entries help. Choose the information object type. You go to a selection screen in which you can search for the object in the Knowledge Warehouse.
There are other pushbuttons for editing the user menu. Choose a menu entry with the cursor before you call one of the following functions.
Function:     Meaning
Create folder
Group transactions, programs, etc. in a folder
Change node text
Change a menu entry text
Move down
Move a menu entry down one place
Move up
Move a menu entry up one place
Delete nodes
Delete a menu entry
Any subnodes are also deleted.
Delete all nodes
Delete the complete role menu
Translate node
Translate a menu entry
Documentation
Display the documentation of transactions, programs, etc.
Find doc.
Find programs
You can restructure the menu by Drag & Drop.
The Menu tab status is red if no menu nodes are assigned. If at least one menu node is assigned, the status is green.
You can assign Implementation Guide (IMG) projects or project views to a role under Utilities  Customizing auth. Do this to generate IMG activity authorization and assign users. The authorization to perform all activities in the assigned IMG projects/project views is generated in profile generation. You make the assignments in a dialog box. Choose Information to display more information on using this option.
7.     Save your entries.
You have created a role.

Database DAO - JDBC Query Class - Code review please

I use the following class (Database.java) as a DAO for handling all database calls. The class works. You can use this if you're looking for a DAO solution (i.e. a way to query databases using connection pools / JNDI). I am looking for some suggestions on improving this class. Can you help? I.e. suggestions for improving SELECT speed, logic? The class is used by a moderately heavily used Web application (ca. 2000 - 3000 queries a day - so not too much) on a Sun Web Server system.
This class had the following interfaces:
getErrors() // for retrieving any errors that occurred during an query
setSql() // one way to set the SQL that must be run
setDbName() // one way to set the JNDI name of the database resource
getInsertDelete() // run the INSERT/DELETE statement that was provided with setSql
getInsertDelete(String givenSql, String givenDb) // run with provided sql and db
getClobInsert(String givenSql, String givenDb, Hashtable clobHash, String identifierSql) // clobHash contains the column name and the value (which is a string over 4000 chars). Identifier SQL is the SQL for identifying the row, into which the Clob must be inserted. This interface is specific to Oracle.
getSelect() // Query database with set SQL. Return as a vector of hashes so I can close connection.
getSelect(String givenSql, String givenDb) // select with given sqlAnd here is the full class. I know, this is a weird post, but we don't really have a code review process here at work, and I don't have a specific problem. Just want some feedback concerning the way I query our databases. So, any tips or comments are welcome.

}Thank you,

too much code that's repeated. refactor all the code you have for closing resources into a utility class and simply call its methods.
your dao creates the connection, so it can't participate in a transaction. if there are several daos that should be one unit of work, you can't manage it with this framework.
transactions are under the control of a service layer. I think it's better to have the service object get the connection, pass it to all the DAOs needed for that unit of work, and then have the service close it.
e-mailing errors? I don't like it. if you have 2-3K queries a day failing because the database you'll have 2-3K e-mails to delete. better to log messages. if you really want e-mail, you can have Log4J add an e-mail appender. at least that way it's configurable outside the code.
CRUD operations without an UPDATE? You're missing something important.
What if I don't want to get the database from a JNDI datasource? Now you can't use this DAO without an app server.
Your error messages are less informative than a stack trace. Why not throw an exception with detailed info?
have a look at Spring and how it handles persistence. if you insist on writing your own, might want to look at Spring. Rod Johnson has developed a much better, more general way to handle persistence.
http://www.springframework.org
You return a Vector of Hashtables for queries? Two old-school data structures. You understand the implication of choosing those, right? I'd recommend that you change that to a List of Maps. Let the concrete types be ArrayList and HashMap. Interfaces are preferred, because they let you change the implementation without affecting clients. Vector and Hashtable are synchronized by default; ArrayList and HashMap are not. Synchronization is thread safe but slower.
I understand why you chose to return Vector, because you wanted something general that wouldn't force you to deal with object-relational mapping. This way you can just worry about ResultSetMetaData.
A Vector of Hashtables is a row-based view of the ResultSet (one Hashtable per row). Sometimes a column based view can be more convenient. Then it's a Map of Lists.
You gave it a good try, but I think there's a lot of room for improvement.

Hello,
I'm not sure, but i would try to put the package only in lowercase.
Your class pakageis declared with first Upper case letter.
And in you faces-config file, you declared with lower case.
Note : it's recommanded to use only lower case for package name.

Re:- XMII is there a way todynamically create local or transaction variable

Dear all,
Is there a way to create local or transaction variable dynamically inside the BLS transactions.
I have a scenario where in i am reading the XMl document and based on the number of node (sub node ) items i need to temporary save those values into transaction variable . I want to use these saved transaction variable tvalues o later insert into database

After reading your second post, I wonder why you want to temporarily store the separate values from the XML node in a local property.
If you already have all values available in a XML, than it would be easier to process the XML directly in MII, as that is what MII does best. MII can directly access the node values and use it as input for your databse inserts. Using a repeater action, you can process 0 to n nodes. Use XPath to transfer the node values to the query parameters.
Is this the option you are looking for, or do I miss something?

Creating "Payables Account Transaction" using custom code

Hi Gurus,
I need a help. I have a requirement that I have to create "Payables Account Transaction" using custom PL/SQL code. Kindly could you advise me as to which API or Package should i use to get this done. Currently I am in 11.5.10.2.
Pls help me on this.
Thanks,
Genoo

Hi Genoo,
As mentioned I would reverse the standard journals coming from Payables, that way you can still see what the original journals were and drill back using them. So you don't do anything in the subledger.
Alternatively if you wanted to get more risky, when you run the Payables transfer to GL, you could choose not to submit journal import and then you could manipulate the AP Journal records while they are still in the GL_INTERFACE (as they also go through that table) prior to going to GL, then you could do whatever you want - and if you don't delete them (but update / copy them) they will still retain the drilldown links back to AP.

Gareth
