CMD_EI_API usage for maintaining AR customers

We are able to successfully create customers for AR using the CMD_EI_API=>maintain_bapi method. However we are having trouble updating existing customers with new addresses or bank information. Is there any limitation on what fields can be updated on the customer master using this interface ? In most scenarios, no errors and no updates are occurring.
regards
Sandesh Ghawghawe

Hi Sandesh,
for sure there are limitation with that API.
But the description of your difficulty does not look like related to such limitation.
Maybe the bank. Within the newest EhP releases, the Bank functionality has been enhanced with the support of the bank account without number (related to IBAN).
Maintenance of standard customer bank account should be supported properly.
One of the common issue with this API is when you forget to maitain the DATAX structure accordingly to the DATA structure.
As a result, nothing gets maintained.
Maybe this is your trouble.
Don't forget also the COMMIT or BAPI_COMMIT

Why we maintain usage for work approval, applications and documents in WCM

hi,
what is significance of maintaining usage for Work Approval, Work clearance Application and Work clearance documents in Customizing of work clearance management.
Please reply.... with detailed notes..
regards,
Amit kushwaha

Hi,
For WCD Usage u can have further controls given in customizing.
But u can hide Usage in WA and WCA, if its not used. But at application level u can use it for various types of permits, which u can use as the triggering point for printouts.
If this answers ur query u can give points.
Thanks.

Goodbye unlimited data for IPad 3G customers. Welcome to AT&T after June 7

http://www.att.com/gen/press-room?pid=17991&cdvn=news&newsarticleid=30854&mapcod e=financial%7CWireless
For new iPad customers, the $25 per month 2 GB plan will replace the existing $29.99 unlimited plan. iPad customers will continue to pre-pay for their wireless data plan and no contract is required. Existing iPad customers who have the $29.99 per month unlimited plan can keep that plan or switch to the new $25 per month plan with 2 GB of data.
http://www.macrumors.com/
"AT&T also announced that they have changed the iPad 3G data plan for new customers after June 7th.
At present, AT&T offers a no-contract $29.99/month unlimited data plan specifically for iPad owners. If you activate your data plan before June 7th, you can still participate in this plan. After June 7th, however, AT&T will be replacing that plan with a $25/month 2GB limited plan. From the press release:
For new iPad customers, the $25 per month 2 GB plan will replace the existing $29.99 unlimited plan. iPad customers will continue to pre-pay for their wireless data plan and no contract is required. Existing iPad customers who have the $29.99 per month unlimited plan can keep that plan or switch to the new $25 per month plan with 2 GB of data.
So, if this is an issue for you, you still have time to be grandfathered into the unlimited data plan. Existing iPad customers can look at their current data usage via their iPad settings."

Got this off of cnet.com:
http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-20006534-1.html
“But nobody will be forced to switch. If users are happy with their current plan then they can keep it, which we expect many to do. In fact, AT&T tells us, *"[Users] are not required to switch to the new plans if they renew their contract or switch to another smartphone.* However, if they switch to one of the new plans, they will not be able to go back to their old unlimited plan." The only downside is that legacy iPhone plans won't get tethering, so there are some things to consider for some.”
Hopefully that will remain the case. I have unlimited on both my iPhone and iPad and like the freedom of watching as many videos and surfing the net as much as I want. On TUAW the article was saying it was likely that AT&T would force those "grandfathered" into changing to a new data plan when they renewed. The above article pretty much says that AT&T is claiming that whether we renew or switch to another smartphone and don't switch data plans that we should be ok.
I'll keep my fingers crossed!

Hi,
When user is printing the Invoices, only for specific 3 customers it is it not getting printed automatically, but the output is shows success with green. When they re process it manually, it is printing successfully for the same printer.

Hi
First of all Welcome to SCN Forum
Please check wheather any subroutine has been assigned to the output type access sequence.If the problem is with printout only then check the Logical destination that has been maintained in VV32 for those 3 customers.In VV32 for those 3 customers check wheather Release Immediately has been checked or not. Before reprocessing it go to VF02 and check on determine analysis

You can maintain this via Quantity Contract scenerio.
For these Customers build the scenerio as this way.
Only value contract can be created and the release orders can be created through the Quantity Contracts.
Make these Customer in seperate sales areas then assign the same sales areas to the Contract Document type.
Maintain the copy control settings..
I hope this will help you.

Need Expert advice on choosing Source System for creating/maint Customers.

Hi Experts,
Iam on project where we have CRM,ECC(SD),FICA in the System Landscape.The client is currently using ECC(SD) Customer master for creating/maintainig Customer's.As we have CRM & FICA in this implementation, we are planning to propose that we use CRM as the source system for creating/maintaing Customers as Business Partners & Perform standard replication to the other system's in the landscape.
The client has has asked us to confirm if having CRM as the source is the Best practice in the industry when we have this three systems (CRM,FICA,ECC(SD)) Landscape.I thought to get some expert advice on this & see if any of you have a similar project experience & share some views on this CRM BP vs ECC(SD) Customer Master.
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Naveen

Hi,
I believe it depends on your business senario.Here I can share some my experience for you.
CRM As Source System
Advantage:
1) Choosing CRM as source system ,you can create several roles of customer for tracking the presales process of customer，such as prospect ,sold to party ,customers ,also you can define the life cycle of your customer and control which life cycle of customer should be replicated to ECC and which one should not.
2) CRM can have more views of customer and customer defined field (EEWB fields) ,so if you choose CRM as Source it will be more convenient to create and fill in the all your user defined field .In other words ,choosing ECC as source you have to extend these field again in CRM .
3） easy to maintain customer relationship
Disadvantages：
1） Have to extend Company code view of Customer data, since CRM do not have these view ,it is just used for billing and integration with financial accounts.
2） have to extend some particular partner function of customer ,it is because of CRM it is only possible to create part of partner function automatically like SP ,BP when business partner is replicating to ECC.
ECC As the source
Oppositely， if you choose ECC as the source ,the advantage become disadvantage.
Advantage :
1) Can Easily to create customer's data of company code view
2) Can easily to assign any partner function to customer
To conclude， if you only need to create sales order in ECC ，I believe choosing ECC as Lead system is better, since you do not have to extend customer data and easily to integrate with FICO and SD.Howerver, if you are going to create a sales order from opportunity or quotation ,CRM is your best choice.

Won't show usage for one line

I recently added my brother's phone to my plan, he had Verizon already and we transferred his number to my plan from another person's plan. He's been on my plan since Aug. 2nd, and he's the 4th phone line on my plan now. He isn't being responsible by telling me what his most frequently called numbers are so I may add them to my 10 F&F. I tried to view his top numbers dialed in the usage section, and his number doesn't show up. It only shows me usage for the original 3 lines. I am able to view his calls and details under the billing section, but I have no way of knowing which numbers are most at risk for going over, it won't tell me which of his numbers have VZW or not. He's completely on my plan now, so why wouldn't it show me his heavy hitters? His usage is higher than the other three lines put together, so I need to be able to monitor his usage frquently to ensure no overages. And by the way, I do NOT want him authorized on my account, so hopefully the answer will not be having him call in and access my account to update something... Thanks in advance!

I was getting ready to reply...and saw the issue has resolved itself.
For others who may be reading, and logging in later doesn't work....you can sort the columns when you are viewing the bill online by clicking on the column header. Sort by number, sort by length of call, etc - not ideal but if the Verizon report features are not working, it will give you the information you seek.
if you are good with Excel, you can download the data to a spreadsheet and do your calculations and manipulations there as well.

Recurring campaign for new registered customers

Hi,
I am trying to create a recurring campaign for the following scenario:
A customer registers on a website. Each time a new customer registers on this website a new BP record will be created and the BP will assigned a new marketing attribute value of 'New customer'. At the end of each day we would like to send every customer who has registered today an email confirming their registration details. So on day 2 (tomorrow) more new customer registers and at the end of day 2 we pick up new customers from day 2 and send them their email confirmations.
We have done the following setup for the recurring campaigns:
- Created a new attribute set with attribute value 'New customer" = Yes
- Prepare infoset which covers all BPs contacted by any campaign. This is reflected by the use of the contact tracking table for outbound contacts
- prepare a profile for all 'New customers' in segment builder where new customer attribute = yes reduced by the customers contacted already
- Create email form
We have put this in a recurring campaign. The 1st day it works and sends emails to new customers. The 2nd day it picks up new customers but also picks up customers from the 1st day.
Does anyone have any idea where we are going wrong here and why the target group is still picking up the new customers from the 1st day.
Our infoset looks like the one below:
Field "CRMD_IM_ML_ITEM - ML_GUID_H" joined to "CRMD_IM_ML_HEAD - ML_GUID_H" and "CRMD_IM_ML_HEAD - TASK_GUID" joined to "CGPL_TASK - GUID"
Our data source contains the marketing attribute and infoset. The infoset uses the CGPL_TASK-EXTERNAL_ID- filter is on the campaign element
Then in segment builder profile = marketing attribute new customer = yes (REMOVE) "CGPL_TASK-EXTERNAL_ID- filter is on the campaign element"
Hope this makes sense.
Cheers

Solved by myself . Workflow logic takes care of scheduling a workflow task to execute an upcoming instance of a recurring campaign.

How can I monitor my monthly data usage for all 3 computers in my house? I have an Airport base station and it seems there should be software to monitor it from that point rather than monitoring the usage for each computer and then adding it up.

How can I find out my data usage for the past 3 months?

Greetings all, I have been a long time Verizon customer, and as such I, along with my husband, was grandfathered into the unlimited data plan. When I last spoke to a representative, they informed me that the only way we were going to be able to keep our unlimited data was by paying the full retail price ($600+) to get a new phone. So we were considering upgrading and changing to one of the newer data plans so we could still get the discounted price on the new phone, but I would like to make sure I choose one with enough data, without paying for a bunch of data that I don't use, however MyVerizon only shows me the amount I have used since the start of the billing cycle. Is there a way to find out the data usage for both my husband and myself for the last 3 months so I can choose the right option?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello sweetpea1221! How exciting that you're considering upgrading with us. mrhelper is helpful, indeed. You can view your data usage for each line under the View Bill option via your My Verizon account. You can also view your 3 month average data usage with our Account Analysis feature. Here's a link that will be helpful in doing so http://bit.ly/vnLjqO. I'm confident that we have a great plan to match your data needs. Please let us know if you have further questions.

How could i get the kernel and user cpu usage for each process

Hi all,
In order to monitor the system CPU usage, I would like write a script to gather the kernel and user CPU usage for each process, like the prstat or top does. As always missing the shortlived kernel usage, prstat or top cann't get the precise CPU usage. I checked with the dtrace syscall, proc and fbt provider, but don't get which one is useful.
Please provide your comments and suggestion.
Thanks in adv

As I've studied the "dtrace" for a while, and seems Sun gives a pretty high score on this new feature.....I do want to know whether there's some probe can work for it, like writing a "dtrace" version prstat.You can write a prstat without dtrace. Because that's just polling at specific intervals and reading some process structures from /proc. You could have dtrace fire a probe every 5 seconds and read the same thing, but it wouldn't really be using any features of dtrace. Trhying to write it "in dtrace" doesn't make much sense.
What you could do that would be harder via other methods is to fire a probe at process exit that displayed the process information including total CPU time. They could print exactly when processes exited. Doing that without dtrace would be very difficult.

How to track total call duration & data usage for ...

How do I track my total call & data usage for Nokia Lumia 620. I had search for datasense from the store however unable to find? Is there any other applications that can be use to track.

Datasense requires network support so if you can't see it your network doesn't support it. Some networks have their own apps in the store for monitoring data and some have mobile websites for that purpose.
The only other app that can do it is "call credit" but it doesn't support every network, install it and see if yours is supported.

Tcode for Maintaining GL Account Hierarchy

Hi Gurus!
I just want to ask where can I find the Tcode for Maintaining GL Account Hierarchy in R/3.
Thanks.

Hi,
I guess, there is no Hierarchy as such maintained for G/L Account, in order to create a G/L acct. you can use FS00 t-code, whereas as mentioned in the earlier response you can also check FSE3 t-code for respective assignment of the Financial statements for the 'Assets' and 'Liabilities' followed with the G/L acct.
Hope it helps..
assign points if useful..

How to specify maximum memory usage for Java VM in Tomcat?

Does any one know how to setup memory usage for Java VM, such as "-Xmx256m" parameter, in Tomcat?
I'm using Tomcat 3.x in Apache web server on Sun Solaris platform. I already tried to add the following line into tomcat.properties, like:
wrapper.bin.parameters=-Xmx512m
However, it seems to me that this doesn't work. So, how about if my servlet will consume a large amount of memory that exceeds the default 64M memory boundary of Java VM?
Any idea will be appreciated.
Haohua

With some help we found the fix. You have to set the -Xms and -Xmx at installation time when you install Tomcat 4.x as a service. Services do not read system variables. Go to the command prompt in windows, and in the directory where tomcat.exe resides, type "tomcat.exe /?". You will see jvm_options as part of the installation. Put the -Xms and -Xmx variables in the proper place during the install and it will work.
If you can't uninstall and reinstall, you can apply this registry hack that dfortae sent to me on another thread.
=-=-=-=-=-=
You can change the parameters in the Windows registry. If your service name is "Apache Tomcat" The location is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Apache Tomcat\Parameters
Change the JVM Option Count value to the new value with the number of parameters it will now have. In my case, I added two parameters -Xms100m and -Xmx256m and it was 3 before so I bumped it to 5.
Then I created two more String values. I called the first one I added 'JVM Option Number 4' and the second 'JVM Option Number 5'. Then I set the value inside each. The first one I set to '-Xms100m' and the second I set to '-Xmx256m'. Then I restarted Tomcat and observed when I did big processing the memory limit was now 256 MB, so it worked. Hope this helps!
=-=-=-=-=
I tried this and it worked. I did not want to have to go through the whole reinstallation process, so this was best for me.
Thanks to all who helped on this.
