CONNECTION OBJECT AND POD

hi experts,
can any one of you explain what is connection object and point of delivery with any example.

Hello
Connection object is the place where the Utility service is provided. It can be a building, or a transformation center in the street or a fountain. It is just where you provide the service.
PoD is an object for the de regulated market. It is a universal coordinate on where the service is provided. Imagine you switch from UItility company A to company B. When both companies exchange your data, the only data that both companies know for sure is your PoD.
PoD number is created via an algorithm which is unique for your whole country.
Hope it helps
Joaquin

Connection object and POD replication

Hello Experts,
I am getting an error "Error during replication of product" for SI_CONNOBJ, "No categories assigned to the product" for Si_POD when i check the tocode :smw01 in CRM.
Can anyone tell me how i could resolve the above errors?
Regards,
Nasreen

Hi,
please read Note 430980 - CRM Server: Analysis in delta data exchange R/3->CRM
They have status 'STOP': In general, this is not an error. In this case, check whether the initial load for the object or its child object is still running. During this time, the delta queues are locked to prevent the transfer of newer delta data until the completion of the initial load. In this case you must wait until the initial load is complete, afterwards the system automatically removes the STOP entries. For test purposes you can force the manual start of the delta queues with a potential loss of the data consistency by deleting lock entries R3AD_<object name>* in Transaction SMQ1 in the R/3 BACKEND System. For the analysis of errors in the initial load, refer to Note 429423.

How to store Connection object and call it from other programs.

Hi,
I am trying to connect to the database, store the connection object and use this connection object from other standalone java programs.
Can any one tell me how to do this? I've tried in the following way:
In the following program I am connecting to the database and saving the connection object in a variable.
public class GetKT2Connection {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      String url = "jdbc:odbc:SQLDsn;
      String dbUser = "sa";
      String dbPwd = "sa";
      Connection kt2conn = Connection connection = java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(url, dbUser, dbPwd);
      if(kt2conn == null) {
         System.out.println("Database Connection Failure!");
      else {
         System.out.println("Connected to Database...");
     GetKTConnectionObj.storeKT2ConnectionObj(kt2conn);
} Here is the program to save connection object in a variable.
public class GetKTConnectionObj {
   static Connection kt2Connection = null;
   public static void storeKT2ConnectionObj(Connection conn) {
   kt2Connection = conn;
   public static Connection getKT2ConnectionObj() {
   try {
      return kt2Connection;
   catch(Exception e){
      System.out.println(e);
return null;
}Now from the following code I am trying to get the connection object that is stored. But this is throwing NullPointerException.
public class Metrics_Migration {
public static void main(String args[]) {
     try {
    java.sql.Connection connection_1 =   GetKTConnectionObj.getKT6ConnectionObj();
     catch(Exception e){
}

kt2Connection is null. You need to store it first, to make it not null. Otherwise it will stay null forever. And why on earth are you trying to do this THIS way?
If you are running the two applications separately, it wont work either.

Error in creating Connection Object and Device Location

Hi ,
When i am creating Connection Object and Device Location , system is giving dump . all other object are working fine.
the error is gievn below :
Error in reading table TE130.
i checked this the table , its have no entries ( mainly field ISTYP is blank ) and this is the cause of problem .
Could you please tell me that how to fill this table before creating Connection object and device location. i think some configuration should be needed for this but i dont know how .
thanks and regards
Deepak.

Hi Deepak,
You can check standard configuration in client 000.
Meanwhile you can use this settings:
ISTYP TPLKZ FLTYP NUMKI NUMKE
C AO_GP A 01 OC
D AO_GP G 02 OC
This is where you define structure indicator for isu technical location category.
ISTYP correspond to the type of technical location in ISU, C for connection object and D for device location
The content of TPLKZ is defined in the following menu in SPRO.
Plant Maintenance and Customer Service
Master Data in Plant Maintenance and Customer Service
Technical Objects
Functional Locations
Create Structure Indicator for Reference Locations/Functional Locations
Hope it helps,
Regards,

Connection Object and Street name

Hi,
Could anybody please specify the table name in which we can find the Connection object and Street name?
Thanks and Regards

Table EHAUISU you will have the connection object number.
Then go to ILOA table give the connection object number in Functional loc. and execute it.
You will get the address number. Then go to ADRC table to know the street name.
You will not find the data in a single table.
If you want to find then go to views
V_EHAU_ADDRNR : IS-U Connection Object: Optimized Access for Address Number "you will find address number for connection object.
V_EHAUADR : You will get street name for connection object.
Please let me know if you want any more details. if have any issues with answer then let me know the exact question for the same.
Thank You.

Siva

ISU-CRM Initial load of connection object

Hi All,
Currently we are working on replication of connection object from ISU to CRM
We have followed the settings as metioned in cookbook-ISU/CRM replication of technical object.
During initial download,BDOC's are going into error with with the error "General error (exception) in product API" and "Validation error occurred: Module VALIDATE_MSGBDOC_FOR_CONNOBJ, BDoc type SI_CONNOBJ.
We have created subcategories for connection object and POD in the hierarchy R3PRODSTYP.
What other setting are we missing?
Regards
NIkhil

Hi ,
The number range is maintained.
I was debugging the code and one function module COM_PR_SET_CHECK_ALL is giving error "Assign a base category to the product"
Diagnosis "When you create a product you must assign it a category. This category is used for number assignment and must be from the hierarchy assigned to the application Product (see also No hierarchy assigned to the application Product)."
Procedure :Assign the appropriate category to the product.
Any idea about the error?
The replication is working perfectly fine in our sandbox system and FM is returning no error.

(UIX XML) Sharing Connection objects between BC4J and custom java.

If I have a UIX XML page that contains some BC4J application modules, then in the event handler I call [public static EventResult handleMyEventEvent (BajaContext context, Page page, PageEvent event..) ], which in turn calls some java classes I have written that take a java.sql.Connection object and access the database doing some updates/inserts with this Connection object (via JDBC)....HOW CAN I USE THE SAME TRANSACTION AS WAS USED IN THE BC4J APPLICATION MODULE...i.e. CAN I SHARE THE CONNECTION OBJECT BETWEEN BC4J AND MY OWN JAVA CLASSES THAT USE JDBC?
What are the best ways to share such a transaction?
Thanks,
Paul.

Would it be easier to use a custom method on the bc4j Application module?
Take this scenario...
1. User opens UIX XML web page which opens a bc4j App Module..it has a VO based on all employees.
2. User presses the add button and a new employee is created (using the bc4j App Module).
(Notice: no commit yet!)
3. User presses the submit button...fires event REVIEW_SALARY.
4. This event is 'handled' in the event section of the UML XML...it calls:-
public static EventResult handleREVIEW_SALARYEvent (BajaContext context, Page page, PageEvent event)...
5. I now want to call a java class I wrote that computes an employees new salary and updates the employee record with this new salary. This update will fail unless it is part of the same transaction as the one used by the bc4j App Module (that inserted the new employee).
How best to proceed from here?
How about having a method on the bc4j App Mod's VO called 'reviewSalary'? Calling this would use the same transaction? I could then call my java class from within the VO's method? However do I still have the same problem in that my java class expects to be passed the connection object?
The approach you suggested previously seems a touch dangerous....in that these are not 'publically exposed'...and a new release of JDev may break my code.
Thanks,
Paul.

Need clarification in usage of premise and connection object

Hi everyone,
I am working on a project and for that i have do move in for around 30 customers. i did up to move in . I assumed 5 customers from a single appartment and grouped them. so i used same connection object and premise for them. After move- in is done i checked the Equipment numbers generated for all the 5 in that group. The address in equipment display(ie03) and also the customer display (XD03) is overlapped with the connection objects address. so it is showing same address for all 5 customers. After that i changed the premise but used the same conection object. But again the customer address is overlapped with the given connection object address. can anyone help me how to solve this if i have a scenario like this : 5 customers from same appartment. how to create the connection obj and premise .
Thanks,
Archana

Archana,
Please have a look at the IS-U data model. The connection objects relates to the building and the premises to the appartments. The 5 customers/consumers/business partners live in their own premise. On premise level you may detail the address with such as "1st floor last door to the right".
Devices (meters) are installed technically in a devlice location that can be is linked to premise and connection object. Finally the utility installation holds all billing relevant data while the contract is the link between the technical master data and the business master data. During a move-in the address list of a BP is completed by the address of the connection object (if customized).
As you can see there are various factors affecting the address of a business partner and a installed device.
Kind regards,
Fritz

Duplicate check for Connection Objects in CRM

Hi,
I want to implement a duplicate check for connection objects in CRM. The duplicate check shall use the address of the connection object and perhaps additonal attributes. I have found a duplicate check for business partners using the basis address service and TREX as index pool. However, I couldn't find a similar functionality for connection objects. Does somebody know:
1) How to implement a duplicate check for connection objects which is based on the address of the connection object?
2) Is there a way to use the TREX-based duplicate check which is integrated into the basis address service for connection objects?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Frank

I also have a requirement to check for duplicate address at connection object level and we are using SAP data servies to validate the address. Can anyone share their experience.

Creating logical/virtual connection object from physical connection

Can anybody help me what is creating logical/virtual connection object and how to create it from physical connection in java ??
Thanks in advance...

WHile you are waiting for an answer, you might want to review the related Oracle documentation:
For 10g, all docco is at http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/portal.portal_db?selected=3 and docco I suspect will help you is "Java Developer's Guide" and "JDBC Developer's Guide and Reference"

Threaded Queries from Single static Connection object - Good approach?

Hi,
I need to generate a report where I need to query count(1) from over one hundred tables from oracle 10g database. I am not updating or deleting any record.
My approach is to use a single static connection object and create one thread for each table and capture the result back into a static hashtable.
But still, I am not getting any substantial performance improvement. Earlier, my report took 40 minutes, when it was non-threaded and now it takes 30 minutes.
Is there anything more I can do to make my report get the counts faster? Will a connection pool help?

I was told by the DBA that count(1) works faster than count(*)....that's why....Unlikely. Certainly not true in current versions of Oracle if that is the source.Not unlikely, actually not true. Beneath the hood Oracle turns a count(1) into a count(*) in order to deal with this. Why? Because count(1) is turned into count(*) in order to avoid it being slower (Oracle 7 was the last time count(1) was different). And the reason generally given is because so many people were mistakenly using count(1) thinking it performed better that they decided to put in the "conversion" to fix the silly queries.
I think this it the [Ask Tom|http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:109792721681931::::P11_QUESTION_ID:1156159920245] link I used last time this came up here.
I knew all that, but I missed that the OP had specified the database vendor and version.

Getting the connection object in graph

As part of Denormalizer component's Denormalize property where we have the logic of collapsing/denormalising the records we want to execute a sql query using PreparedStatement which requires Connection object.how do I get the connection object and execute a query.Can some one please share the java doc of the classes I can use.
Do I get any class under org.jetel package which can be useful to get the Connection object.

Connection object creation error(ES55)

Dear Friends,
When I try to create a connection object using tcode ES55 I am getting an error "Alternative ID Not supported", Message E7045, "An alternative indicator is active in Customizing of the functional location. This functionality is not supported for connection objects and device locations".
If I deactivate at Functional Location Level, system asks activation settings are not maintained.
Can somebody guide me on this issue.
with regards,
Dayanand

Dear william,
I am not able to execute tcode ES55, becoz if I activate alternate labeling, system throws an error to deactivate it. If I deactivate it system throws an error to activate it.
Please suggest how to overcome this. We are using IDES 800 only. Do we need to update any patches.
with regards,

Connection object creation

Hello
We are developing a website using the java technologies.
We are not using the connection pooling for connecting to the database. We use a static connection object and calling it in all the pages.
Is there any other good method for connecting to a database?

Writing to memory purpose is storing memory
Static connection should not use for data entry operation (if there is any common insert, update or delete statement exists). If any one of the client gives a commit cases all the database entries of the particular connection will be committed. In the case of display purpose static connection will not cause any problem.
If u r requirement is for data entry then try to use one method.. Whenever user logged in create a unique id and create a connection for this particular user. Then store this connection as well as id in a static hashmap in servlet. This id should be attach in all the further requests for retrieving the connection..
If anymore clarification needed
Mail me
