Change pointers for HR master data

Hi I am trying to setup change pointers for HR Master data , in relation to HRMD_A06 idoc , I did all the steps for setting up change pointers.
Transaction bd52 for my reduced IDOC shows 0 entries, When i did the same for customer master data , BD52 had some entries by itself .
I can't produce any HRMD_A06 Idocs , What am i doing wrong? Should the entries in BD52 be added manually for all the fields i need?
Any help is much appriciated.
Sudheer

Hi,
guess it's not necessary to see some entries in bd52 (it's enough to activate in bd53).
Do you have configured RBDMIDOC (otherwise no IDocs will get generated).
Or you run t-code bd21 for testing. Standard way is to run the report RBDMIDOC in a periodic background job.
A good description could be found here (p. 12):

Change Pointers for Vendor Master

Hi All,
I have to activate change pointers for Vendor Master data. I have some doubts regarding the same.
1. An Idoc will be generated for newly created vendor, right?
2. If I extend the vendor master IDOC, where should I write code to extract the values of newly added fields?
3. If I create a custom IDOC for vendor master, what is the procedure to configure this in the change pointers for Vendor Master?
Thanks & Best Regards,
Kumar.

Hi,
1. Afer doing all the settings required to create change pointers (BD61, BD50, BD52), the idocs will be created when u run the report RBDMIDOC or execute transaction BD21.if any changes happen in master data
like new vendor is created or vendor data is changed, then only change pointers will be created and on executing the aforesaid report, idocs will be generated.
Also idocs can be generated by replicating vendor data through transaction BD14 or any other custom transaction.
2. When you add custom segments to basic type, you have to write code in suitable user exits.
Identify suitable user exit to populate data in custom segments and write the code in oubound side.
Identify suitable user exit to populate the values in custom segments to database table, this code is to be written in inbound side.

Export and import change document for user master data

Dear Gurus,
I have two queries on change document for user master data:
1. Are there any approaches to export and import change document for user master data?
We often do system copy from PRD to QAS for UAT and troubleshooting. Before system copy we export the user master data from QAS and then import after the copy process. We would like to keep the change document for user master data on QAS from being refreshed from PRD for security reason.
2. Change document for Role change in QAS
When the role is created or modified in DEV and then transported to QAS, the role change document doen't include this change log. The role change document in QAS only records those role changes directly made in QAS.
Could you advise this is by SAP design or are there any approaches to record this transported role change in the role change document in QAS?
Thanks
YBY

1. Perhaps you want to consider a system copy to a "virtual system" for UAT?
2. Changes in QAS (as with PROD as well) will give you the delta. They should ideally be clean... You need to check the source system.
Another option is to generate the profiles in the target system. But for that your config has to be sqeaky clean and in sync, including very well maintained and sync'ed Su24 data.

Julius

Change Logs for customer master data in 3.1 H version

Hello All
Are they any existing reports or change logs for viewing changes to customer master data in 3.1h version. I want to be able to report based on changes made to customer master.
I know there is a good report in 6.0 version for this- S_ALR_87012182.
If I have to develop a custom program for this in 3.1h. Which table I should use? KNA1 or CDPOS.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Hema.

Hi,
Please check the filter settings maintained for the adapter object CUSTOMER in R3AC1. The same filter settings can be referred in tables Table: CRMFILTAB (R/3) and SMOFFILTAB(CRM) as per srinivas's reply.
Check the sales area of the customer maintained (Sales Area, Division, Distribution Channel etc.) and see if the current filter settings are restricting the customer from getting replicated in CRM. If everything is maintained fine then check for any failure Bdocs in SMW01 or SMW02.

Can we apply attribute change run for datatarget (Master data )

hi,
can we apply attribute change run for datatarget like masterdata where for example i am loading 0pm_order_attr to 0pm_order data target (master data). after successful loading of data, do i have to apply attribute change run for <i>info object</i> 0pm_order or apply attribute change run for 0pm_order in <i>info providers</i> because after successful loading of pm order data, i am trying to load transactional data and it is showing error "No SID value found for xxx record"
pls advice how not to make the error repeat even after successful loading of master data.
Thanks in advance, quick responce is greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
i am in production server and cannot activate the master data 0pm_order which is in info providers directly, is there any chance of activating it with any other option.
coming to attribute change run, i understand that we can apply for master data objects which are there in info providers, am i correct?
i ran attribute change run yesterday for the info object 0pm_order but even after doing that i tried to load transactional data but it was failure with the same error "No SID value found", why i am getting when i found master data loading successful and ran attribute change run for infoobject.

Why change pointers for master data, why not change message?

Hi Gurus,
I have one doubt about Idoc.
When changes to master data has to be sent Change pointers are configured and used. (CDPOS & CDHDR). In case of the transaction data change change idoc is used as is the case with orders (we use ORDCHG for ORDERS message type to send the chnage details to a order which was already sent to other system.
Why we can't use change idoc or message type whatever, instead of Chnage pointers in case of master data or vice versa in case of transaction data.
Your valuable input will be rewarded with suitable points!!
-B S B.

Change pointers are getting stored in the tables BDCP and BDCPS. As SAP suggests these tables should be as small as possible. And Master data are not much frequently changed data.
As you compare with the transactional data, you need to change them many times in the real scenario. If we also process the transaction data via chnage pointer, these changes BDCP is getting more and more entries.
RBDCPCLR is the program used to process the change pointer. If you have much data in the BDCP table, this program will take much time to run.
So, we use the change pointers for the master data only.

Change Pointers for Infotypes - HR Master Data distribution

Hi,
I want to distribute HR infotypes Master Data to other systems...
How do I activate Change pointers for HR infotypes?
Do I have to use idoc HRMD_A or HRMD_B?
Do I have to distribute thru PFAL transaction?
Can I do that a employee change the data of an infotype send the idoc authomaticly?
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Urtzi.

Thanks Roman,
I've looking also for idoc HRMD_ABA. What is the diference between HRDM_ABA and HRMD_A?
When I press SAVE in PA20 doing changes in an employee system distributes authomatically HRMD_ABA but not HRMD_A. Is it correct?
So, if that is correct could I say the following:
- To distribute HRDM_A we can use report RBDMIDOC scheduleing periodic JOB.
- iDoc HRDM_ABA is distributed when saving data in standard transactions.
Is that correct?
Regards.
Urtzi.

Message Type for Material Master Data Changes

Hi all
I'm managing Message Types for Material Master Data extraction from R\3 system to BW system, in order to load on BW only the changes done to some fields of MARA table that are delta relevant.
Now from R/3 BD50 Transaction I can see that there is a message type that refer to changes done on MARA fields: RS0044.
I would like to replace this message type with another one (RS0020) in order to align different systems.
Now changes to material master data in R/3 system are recorder with both message types but only those with RS0044 message type are processed and loaded into BW system.
So I would like to know:
1. How is the message type related to the DataSource 0material?
2. is it possible to replace a message type for BW?
3. if yes, how can I do it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Oscar!
At the moment I'm using Delta queue of 0MATERIAL. I know that in the queue there are all the new and changed records.
But I would like to be able not to load all the changed records, but only those that refer to some fields of MARA table.
E.g. if the gross weight of a material is modified I don't want to load this change on BW with Delta loading .
I've seen that from R/3 Transaction BD52 you can set only delta relevant fields referred to a specific message type and to delete the other fields.
As I'm able to do this directly in the Development system and Test System, I haven't got the authorization of doing it in the Production system.
That's why I need to include this setting in a CR and then ask to transport it from Test to Production system.
But message types referred to MARA field changes are different between the two systems.
And it seems they are automatically created.
Is it true?
Thanks
Elisa

Avoiding change pointers for data with status planned

Hi,
we have to distribute HCM-data, standard infotypes and customer infotypes, into other SAP sytems. One of the receiving systems must not get data with the status planned (istat = 2).
Which would be the best way to avoid planned data in the receiving system? Is it possible to avoid creating change pointers for planned data in the delivering system or have I to delete the planned data in the receiving system while processing the idocs via user-exit?
Best regards
Stefan

Dear Stefan,
You can create the change pointers manually from the IDOC data (e.g.with FM CHANGE_POINTERS_CREATE) during the inbound processing within of the customer-exits of enhancement RHALE001 or within an own BAdI implementation of BAdI HRALE00INBOUND_IDOC.
Or else you can use method IDOC_DATA_FOR_RECEIVER_MODIFY of BAdI HRALE00OUTBOUND_IDOC. In this case please make sure that note 1292241 is implemented.
Hope it helps,
Christine

Table name for Customer Master data-Changes

Hi,
I want to see the changes made in Customer Master Data where i can get this
Scenario is like someone has changed the customer master data in past, We want to know who has changed it or when it has been changed
from WHICH Table I can get this information?
Note:
I need the Table name only in which we can know who has changed it or when it has been changed or What are changed by them
Thanks in advance,
Best Regards,
Chandramohan

Dear Chandramohan,
Try this option you can get the change details clearly
Go to XD03 transaction enter your customer number and other details then go in to the general data from here you to Menu>Environment>Account changes-->Click on All fields now system will give the list of fields which were changed from these list you double click on the single field system will take you to the details of that again you double click on that now system will take you to more details about the changes.
I hope this will help you,

Murali.

Regarding change pointers for HRMD_A

Hi Abapers,
I need to distribute changes to HR master data to a middleware system. hence i have activated the change pointers for the message type: HRMD_A. now my idoc is populating the infotype segments whenever it is changed with all fields.
But a particular change (on an infotype) should be sent individually in two different runs of RBDMIDOC run to the middleware. Ex: Vendor A needs changes to be sent to it on a weekly basis whereas Vendor B needs changes to be sent to it on a biweekly basis. When an employee X has a change on infotype 2, this change should be sent to middleware in both instances separately in different IDOCS at different times when RBDMIDOC program is run (by capturing change pointers pertinent to the message type of the particular vendor).
What are the changes required for ALE config.? Do i need to create a new message type for vendor B and configure. Please help.
Thanks.

Hi sudarshan,
Yuo need to create Z program to trigger IDOC.
As you need to set read status of change pointer as X after yuo send it to both system.
So you need to create Z table to keep track of this whether you have send to sys a or Sys B..
If you willl not update read status in will cause performance prob.
Hope this helps.

How to create change pointers for IT6 when custom table Z777A changes?

Situation: We are using custom table Z777A (copied T777A and added fields) to store building locations. Employee's IT6 subtype 92 retrieves valid work address building locations from table Z777A.
Problem: Whenever there are updates to Z777A, we need to find all IT6 subtype 92 records that use the changed building location from Z777A and create IDOC's The change pointer entry will need to be for the IT6 subtype 92 row that is affected.
Question: Can anyone give me specific details as to how this can be accomplished? Thanks.

Hi,
MASTER DATA CHANGES DISTRIBUTION BY CHANGE POINTER TECHNIQUE:
Step 1: Creating change document object in SCDO transaction.
Step 2:Assigning tables to the change document object.
Step 3:Specifying change document items in transaction BD52.
Step 4: Activating change pointers for the message type HRMD_ABA in transaction BD50.
Step 5:Activating change pointers globally.
Step 6:Executing program RBDMIDOC in SE38, Specifying message type HRMD_ABA.

ALE change Pointers for delta load

The master data datasource is 0CRM_BPSALESCL_ATTR, which is in my source system use change pointers for delta loading. When I use delta loading, the error is "ALE change pointers are not set up correctly". I went to the source system, and use BD61 to activate change pointers. But it does not work. Then I created new Business partners to make changes. I can find these new records in table CDHDR and CDPOS, but there is no records found in table BDCP. And my delta loading still got the error as "ALE change pointers are not set up correctly."
Can anybody give me advice?
Thanks,
Wenjie

Hi, Ron,
Thanks for your reply. I already assign points to you.
I relicated the datasource, and re-active the transfer structure, but it still doesn't work. My one more question is that do I run BD61 on BI system or on source system? I did on source system only. And is there any more setting need to be done on source system? Because my error message said setting on source system is wrong.
Thank you very much.
wenjie
