Change pointers problem

I have created message type ZMATMAS and I want to see an entry in BDCP2 (Change pointers table)
when ever any material is created or changed
I did following steps until now.
1. Created ZMATMAS
2. Activated change pointers - BD61
3. Activated change pointers for message type - BD50
What else I've to do?
Thanks in advance..

Hi,
Visit this link for more details on Change pointer.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/12/83e03c19758e71e10000000a114084/content.htm
also i will tell you in short about what next to be done...
To be able to activate the writing of change pointers via the SMD tool for your master data object, you must carry out these steps:
·        Activate change pointers for each message type
·        Maintain change-relevant fields for message type
·        Activating change pointers generally
You also have to:
·        Implement function module for evaluating change pointers
·        Defining the ALE object type MSGFN as a filter object type
NoteIf you distribute master data using a asynchronous BAPI, all the settings below apply to the generated message type of the BAPI-ALE interface.
Thanks and Regards

Vendor Master change pointers problem

Hi ,
We have a custom program that will read change pointers for Vendor master .
we use these change pointers to trigger our custom idoc . But we need to select only change pointers of vendors whose changes are confirmed in transaction FK08 or Fk09
Please let me know how we can check the changpointers for particular vendor is confirmed or not
Regards,
Ramesh

Just as a follow up on this. I think that within the setup of the classification system you need to configure the tracking of changes. If you take a look at table TCLA you'll notice that there is a field which indicates if change document are turned on. I belive that this then relates back to the "virtual" change document objects that I refered to in my previous post.
It looks like during update tasks that fucntion CLVF_VB_INSERT_CLASSIFICATION and that this checks the TCLA table and then writes the change documents as part of the updates.
The description of this field in TCLA is:
Change Documents for Classification
Indicator: for this class type, a change document is generated for all changes to classification data.
For technical reasons, this indicator can only be set if the class type is defined for classifying different object types.
looks like there is some more research needed but this should hoepfully get you on the right track.

Material Master Change Pointers problem

I have set up an ALE distribution model that creates IDocs when a material is changed, but I also need to create an IDoc when the material is created, and so far the system is not doing that.
I think that I need to configure the system somewhere to do this, but I don't know where to do this.
Could anybody advise?
Kind Regards,
Tony.

Hi,
You need to maintain the Distribution model in BD64 , in the same way how you have maintained for change in material master.
Create the model View
add the Message type MATMAS , Give the sender & receiver system.
After saving the Model , Distribute the model so that it gets replicated in the receiver system.

Change pointers triggering problem for vendor bank details

Hi,
I have configured change pointers for vendor master data. IF I change already existing bank account then that account is coming with deletion indicator and it is picking all other bank details with resend indicator. But if only new account added then idoc is not creating. At the same time entry in table BDCPV also not creating.
Is there any solution to create idoc if new accounts created.
Note: I am not changing any other information except bank details.
Thanks in advance.
Rgds,
Sudhakar

hi ,
How are you changing the information either via direct table update or Bdc, change pointers will be created only if you do transcation it means Bdc
i guess.

Change Pointers not being created for HR-PA Custom Infotype

Problem Description:
We have a custom Infotype in SAP to store the data for contingent employee - Infotype 9001. Change pointers is
turned on. We are running the program RBDMIDOC to send changes to Oracle IDM using message HRMD_A. The change
detected for all infotypes except 9001. For 9001, the change pointer is not created.
The following are the current configuration details:
IDOC Extension Created to Idoc type HRMD_A07 (ZHR_EXT)
custom segment zhr_seg
Change pointers are switched on.
Change pointers switched on for message Type HRMD_A.
IDOC configuration created for Port / Process code etc.
Maintenance of view T777D - Added ZHR_SEG.
If I add the segment ZHR_SEG as a 2nd segment to Infotype 0000, I dont get a syntax error. But the changes for Infotype 9001 are not picked up.
If I add the segment ZHR_SEG as a segment to Infotype 9001, I get a syntax error - check EDI: Syntax error in IDoc (mandatory segment missing) below.
EDI: Syntax error in IDoc (mandatory segment missing)
Message no. E0072
Diagnosis
The segment ZHR9001 has the attribute 'Mandatory' in the syntax description of the basic type HRMD_A07 (customer enhancement ZHR_EXT). However, the segment is missing in the IDoc. The segment number logged in the status record identifies the item before which the segment is missing.
This error may have been triggered by an unidentifiable segment before the expected mandatory segment.
Procedure
Please check the IDoc or the syntax description of the basic type HRMD_A07 (customer enhancement ZHR_EXT).

Were you able to resolve the issue?
If yes, could you please share what was done to resolve it.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Creation of Idocs from the change pointers by the program RBDMIDOC

Hello,
I'm Creating Idocs from the change pointers by the program RBDMIDOC.
The IDOCS Created using the message type HRMD_A are Correct but when i try to RUN RBDMIDOC for message type HRMD_B no Data is selected for distribution.
All the customizing are similar and i presume that all the change pointers are active (BD50 and IMG->Personnel Management -> Organizational Management -> Basic Settings -> Activate change documents).
Can anyone help me with the necessary steps to create this IDOC types.
Do anyone know if the RBDMIDOC report is the Same for messages HRMD_A and HRMD_B.
Thanks in Advance,
Pedro Ferreira

If the setting is fine, there may be some code in exit or badi for program RBMIDOC. Check the Exit and BADI.
check the exit EXIT_SAPLBD11_001 and
check the badi IDOC_CREATION_CHECK.
Probably there may be some code on these exits which are stoping your code from getting generated.These are the two trigger happen once u execute the RBMIDOC program.for HR, we use RHALEINI program to generate the idoc. but even RBDMIDOC works. These 2 triggere will come with RHALEINI also.
If there is no code here, Then there is problem in the setting only.

Change Pointers are not getting populated in BDCPV table.

Hi All,
         I am trying to create IDOC for Activity type master - KL02 through change pointers. For that I have done following things.
Message type - COAMAS
1. Created Custom message type - WE81 - ZIN_COAMAS_TCSMOBILE
2. WE82 - Config for Mess Type and Idoc type combination
3. SCDO - Checked object type LSTAR and have required tables in that object.
4. BD61 - Activated Change pointers - Generally.
5. BD50 - Checked Active for ZIN_COAMAS_TCSMOBILE
6. BD52 - Added fields for I want to create Change pointers
7. BD60 - Message type and ref Mesage Type and function module config.
8. BD64 - Created distribution model for my Message type
After doing all this settings the change pointers are not getting created in BDCP and BDCPV tables.
Note - The entries are going in CDHDR and CDPOS table for activity which i change through KL02 for class LSTAR
Can anybody figure out what need to be done in this case?
Regards,
Gautam Joshi.

Hi All,
          Solved the problem myself.
          In BD52 I have given
          LSTAR               CSLA         KOARS
          LSTAR               CSLA         LSTAR
          LSTAR               CSLT          KTEXT
          Here the data of activity are stored in TCLA and TCLT tables. So intially while doing config in BD52 I have given TCLA and TCLT table names.
          But I debugged the KL02 and found that change pointers are not created for TCLA and TCLT table. further looking into CDHDr and CDPOS table I found that for COAMAS message type in these two tables table name was CSLAB.
CDPOS entry
LSTAR
3166442
119512890
*CSLAB*
2003166442   2400123120000101
KTEXT
U
--> BUT CSLAB is structure.
After putting these entry in BD52 the problem solved.
LSTAR     CSLAB     KOKRS
LSTAR     CSLAB     KTEXT
LSTAR     CSLAB     LSTAR

Generate Change Pointers in non Original System

I have developped in the inbound badis a trigger to generate the change pointers in a non-original system.
Do you know if there is a standard way to generate change pointers in a non-original system?
Landscape is as follow:
Original System => Intermediate System => Final System
I would like to generate change pointers in the Intermediate System to transfer master data into the Final System...

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
the configuration for change pointers is already done, the problem is that if changes are send from the original system, it doesn't generate a change pointer in the intermediate system.
In the end, the intermediate system doesn't send the information to the final system as there are no change pointers generated by the changes received from the original system.
What I'm doing at the moment is to generate those change pointers in the inbound badi in the intermadiate system, I'm wondering if there is not a standard solution for this kind of implementation.
Cheers,
Lucien.

0CML_DELTA : Change pointers are not active

Hi All,
I have successfully did the delta init without data transfer for datasource 0CML_DELTA and 0CML_DELTA_CAP. Now, While trying to load delta, I am getting an error "Change pointers are not active" for both the datasource 0CML_DELTA and 0CML_DELTA_CAP.
The position datasources are fecthing 0 records.
I have activated the change pointers in BD61, even though I am getting the same error.
Anyone faced the similar issue or have any clue about the problem.
Thanks in advance,
Pravender
Edited by: Pravender on Sep 30, 2010 11:09 AM

I resolved it. I was activating change pointers in BD61. But fot CML we need to activate in SPRO--> SAP Banking --> Loans Management --> Basic settings --> Installation parameters ---> Define general installation parameters.
Then it will work.

Change pointers

HI All,
Can you guys plz help me on change pointers.
I have activated change pointers for CREMAS and I am running program RBDMIDOC in background. But it is generating idocs properly when ever vendor is created or changed.
Change pointer is triggering for all vendors when ever vendor is created or changed.
Here my problem is that i don't want to generate all idocs i want to generate idocs for some specifi vendors only (Here we are having different types of vendors depend upon Account group.)
How can I generate specific venodr Idocs using change pointers.
Thanks & Regards
Praveen

Hi Praveen,
There are two filtering in IDoc.
Segment Filtering:
Segment filtering can be achieved using T/Code BD56. Here you can suppress a whole segment irrespective of data inside it . You have to give Message Type / Sender Prrtner / Receiver Partner.
Data Filtering:
Data filtering can be done in dustribution model where you can restrict whole IDOCS or partials IDOCS to be send based on data in fields inside IDOC depending on whether the segment in which you filter is at the highest level or at a lower level. For example in MATMAS if you put a filter of E1MARCM for a particular plant , only data for this plant will go and other plants will be ignored.
For your case, you can use segment filter to send only to specific vendor(s).
Please check this link for detail information.

Change pointers for DELVRY03 Idoc

Hi,
I need to trigger DELVRY03 idoc whenever a delivery document is changed. I understand that one cud trigger a idoc on creation of delivery document using change pointers. But is it possible to use change pointers on edit of del. doc as well??
Also i guess delivery document is transactional data, hence message control might have to be used, but I am not aware how to configure the same for delivery documents.
If anyone could give me the steps to configure message control then it would be helpful.
Thanks in advance

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.

Change pointers and Idoc creation

Hello,
I would like to create change pointers for any changes regarding one of our customer infotypes: 9002 (hrp9002)
I was able to do that, however, I'm struggeling with the details.
The problem is that I do not want to send any data related to infotype 9002. I just need this change pointer to trigger idoc creation for the related objects.
Example: Let's assume that infotype 9002 gets created for position S 40001234. Once a night a customer report is executed via a job which reads all unprocessed change pointers (including the one mentioned above) and sends the corresponding object. In this case, an Idoc for the holder of position 40001234 should be created WITHOUT data for infotype 9002.
The message type is HRMD_A.
What do I need to do?
Thank you for your input.

Hi,
For Info type 9002 we need to implement Badi HRALE00CHANGE_PTRS using below code.
 LOOP AT t_changed_objects INTO wa_changed_objects .
 CASE wa_changed_objects-infty.
 WHEN '9002'.
 wa_cp_data-tabname = 'HROBJINFTY'.
 wa_changed_objects-plvar = '01' .
 wa_cp_data-tabkey = wa_changed_objects .
 wa_cp_data-cdchgid = 'U'.
* wa_cp_data-CDOBJCL = 'HRMD_A'.
 APPEND wa_cp_data TO t_cp_data1 .
 ENDCASE.
ENDLOOP.
IF t_cp_data1 IS NOT INITIAL .
 CALL FUNCTION 'CHANGE_POINTERS_CREATE_DIRECT'
 EXPORTING
 message_type = 'HRMD_A'
 TABLES
 t_cp_data = t_cp_data1
 EXCEPTIONS
 number_range_problems = 1
 OTHERS = 2.
 IF sy-subrc <> 0.
* Implement suitable error handling here
 ENDIF.
ENDIF.
This code will create entry in BDCP2 table.
After thsi populating segemnet you need to code for below exit as .
EXIT_SAPLRHAL_003
 IF PNNNN_NAME = 'P9002' .
*FIELD-SYMBOLS: <FS_plog> TYPE ANY. "Field Symbol for dynamic filling of data based on the structure
*Clearing the SUBRC
CLEAR SUBRC.
* fill workarea for infotype with infotype-data
ASSIGN pnnnn_data TO <FS_plog> CASTING TYPE P9002.
LS_9002 = <FS_plog>.
* move fields
MOVE-CORRESPONDING LS_9002 TO LS_p9002.
* fill IDoc-data with workarea for segmenttype
ASSIGN sdata_data TO <FS_plog> CASTING TYPE Z1P9002.
<FS_plog> = LS_P9002.
CONVERTED = ZCDP_IF_CONSTANTS_DTIRIS=>GC_CROSS .
ENDIF.
It will work fine.
Thanks
Anju
