Contract Generation Localized Resouces ( SAP e-Sourcing 5.1)

Hi,
I am new to this community and was really motivated to put up my posts after seeing the responses on other questions.
While uploading a contract in a master agreement, the contract document type (Contract, Amendment and Addendum) is given as drop down list. I want to create a localized resource for the contract document type (Contract, Amendment and Addendum) since i couldn't find it in the system. Following are my doubt.
1. While creating localized resources, for other languages in the system "Value" field has been greyed out. (For eg if i want to provide the german translation of "Contract" in the system i.e "Vertragsdokument", i am not able to do it, only the value override field is active)
2. If i provide the translation, would it automatically reflect in the system or do i need to assign this manually.
I have system administrator rights and the localized resource is not defined for those values in the system.

Hi,
I dont think you need to go the Localized resource route for accomplishing this requirement.
Simply goto Setup --> Document Setup and pull up the Contract document types under contract documents. Here you will see the available contract doc types available in your system. if you want to rename Contract to Vertragsdokument, then just edit and rename the Name field to Vertragsdokument.
Additionally if you want more contract doc types available to the user, just click on the Create button and populate the fields for new contract doc types to be created.
I am assuming this is what you want to achieve.
Hope this helps,

Error In Contract Generation

Hello Experts
We are getting an error in the contract generation process in SAP Sourcing system. The error message is coming as "Your request has failed because of an unexpected error. Contact the system administrator".
We checked the logs in FCI directory of Word Service and found the below error:

We had checked that the Word Service is up and no other process is listening on the Port 80 or 445 it is configured on. We are using NW 7.3 SP08 and Sourcing Version 9.0 SP15.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Problem finding WordService for Contract Generation in SAP E-Sourcing5.1

Hi,
I'm currently deploying Contract Generation Web Service in SAP E-Sourcing5.1/CLM 2.0 SP02. The problem is that I can't find WordService software which is mandatory for adding XML Schema in MS Word. In the instGuide it says that the installer is on the distribution media but we downloaded the packages on the SWDC. I know that in SAP E-Sourcing 5.0, WordService was in the patch C but for the release 5.1 I have no information. Do you know which SP or Patch contains WordService?
Thanks in advance.
Additional query : I'm currently adding a KM/TREX server for index clauses and agreements documents. Are the "draft" documents visible in the Esourcing repository (In KM Content Management and also in CLM Content Search)?
Julien NORMAND

OK, I'm going to find a MS Word 2003 Pro.
For the windows update, I was just updating my OS, so rebooting and so on.
I test to modify the prefixe of the repository in the KM but now I can't access to the data source of my indexes (java exception). I think the "/" is mandatory, It's written in the label ... In TREX admin tool, I see my KM indexes, and I try to parameter again the scheduling of the queue. I schedule it every 5 minutes.
Now I have to reboot the system that the modification of the repository take effect. After I modify the scheduling of the indexing for every data source (like you said).
Thanks for all.

E-Sourcing and Contract Generation

Hi Gurus,
Can we implement E-Sourcing application only now and Contract Generation next year?
Or do we have to have the initial setup from hardware perspective completed now?
Thanks
JS

Hi JS,
Typically Contract Generation is recommended to be running on a seperate dedicated server.
As you might be aware its MS Word or MS Office service running on the server.
You can certainly include in your hardware design now and install the MSI or the executable provided along with ESOURCING software at a later time. There are certain system properties that needs to be set up or turned on at the time of installing the word service.

Problem in Contract Generation

Hi All,
I am facing problem with E-Sourcing application.
when we upload any word document in system it gave below error.
There is problem with contract generation web service.
But contract generation web sevice is working fine.
When searched for this got following troubleshooting steps ( which are basic steps)
Steps for troubleshooting:
1. Log into the "System" login for the specific customer.
2. Go to System Properties.
3. Look for the property called "contractgen.serviceurl".
4. Copy the whole URL in this property (ends in asmx)
5. Open a new browser and paste the URL from step 4.
This should open a WordService page. If you get a page not found error, then the service needs to be restarted.
My WordService page is opening. Hence no help here.
Next step is only to Create CSS message to SAP.
But before that if anyone had encounterd this problem before then please let me know how to proceed here.
Also when restarted WebLogic server, in C:/fci/logs we can fingd one error as follows.
Startting word service instance.....

Esource- Contract Generation

Hi Experts:
    I am trying to configure/install the Contract Generation part of the "SAP E-Sourcing 5.1 SP02" and the installation guide has a step which says "Once the prerequisites have been met, simply run the install program
WordServiceInstaller.msi." . I am unable to find "WordServiceInstaller.msi". The download media does not have it. Please guide me where to get this.

Thanks Ankush. That did the trick for me.
After the installation and running through almost all the steps of the installation I am getting the following error:

Unable to logon on SAP E-sourcing 5.1

Hi,
Unable to logon on E-sourcing 5.1 with 'enterprise' user id, error "Entry does not exist"
Background:
1. We have installed SAP E-sourcing 5.1 on Netweaver platform.
2. Cretaed Enterprise context (example 'acme1') using 'system' user id and assigned "System Default Cluster" and mainatined password which I remeber.
3. First time I'm able to logon using 'enterprise' user id and able to configure, change, save atc.
4. How wvere, when I logged off and try to login agin using same user id & passwords as followed in step3 above, error "Entry does not exist" is displayed.
5. I tried again by creating new context (example 'acme2'), before doing this I removed the assignment of "System Default Cluster" to earlier created context i.e. 'acme1' and assigned the same to 'acme2'
6.Found the same error when I tried to login using same user id (enterprise) & password which I maintained for newly created context.
Do not know the exact issue. Pls help me or give me some clue.
Thanks,
Hari

Hi,
I got it. incorrect "Host Name" was entered in cluster configuration.
After correcting this, I'm able to login now and hence I'm closing this question.
Thanks,

DS - SAP BW Source clarifications

Hi
I have to connect to a SAP BW source and want to load a BW OLAP cube. In reading the DS Tech. documentation, it says SAP BW source would be similar to reading from a ERP source i.e., use a R/3 dataflow and generate the ABAP and do the extraction.
My question is
1) Can DS load the data directly from the BW cube ? (i.e can it leverage the BW accelarators that is used for reporting)
(or)
2) Using a DS SAP BW source provides only access to how the BW is organized and DS can load only from the underlying tables and not from the cubes directly. To actually load any data, you would have to write a join with my fact table and dimension tables to get the actual dimension value names and fact data into the ETL process
Option 2) is my understanding of how DS works with BW correct ? If my assumption is not correct, can u clarify how to use the BW cubes directly within DS. Are there any additional documentation surrounding this ? Any implementation experience that you can share
Thanks
Dinesh

With DS 12.2 you will be able to use SAP BW's OpenHub Interface as well to consume the cube data with DS. But that SAP BI provided interface has its own limitations, e.g. no BEX Queries can be used as source, keep that in mind. For the majority of the cases it will be the best solution however.

Error (WIS 10901) while creating a webi report against SAP data source

Hi,
While creating a webi report against a universe created using Infocube/Bex query (basically SAP data source) get a error message -
A database error occured. The database error text is: A runtime exception has occured. (License key check failed. Check that you are licensed to access SAP data sources). (WIS 10901).
Any clues whether this is a license issue or something else?
Thanks,

I am having the same problem. I checked and double checked everything, including deleting and recreating the Universe and the Connection. No improvement. On a whim, I deleted the hierarchy from the query on which the Universe was based, and recreated the Universe on the query without the hierarchy. The problem went away.
Now, the question is, why do I get the WIS 10901 error when a hierarchy is present in the query/Universe?

HANA is a data source (which could contain non-SAP data)

Contract from srm to SAP R/3

I made a account assigned pr(with cost centre) in SAP R/3, then i transferred it to SRM, and made a bid in SRM, after all I selected one bid and triggered a contract in SRM so that contract gets made in SAP r/3.
Now the contract automatically picks account assignment as "U" while account assignment is mandatory for that material so it does not make a contract and gives error that account assignemnt mandatory for that material.
Basically account assignemnt data is not being picked up when i transfer pr feom R/3 to SRM.
So when I make a contract it also does not get transferred from SRM to R/3.
Pls. help and guide.
Thanks

Hi Nacho.
Sorry the bad news, but account is not transfers from SRM to ECC or from ECC to SRM in contracts.
The Contracts goes between systems via IDOCs (BLAREL)
As you can see in transaction WE60, IDOC BLAREL02 has not account data.

How do we enable Variable Substitution during Contract Generation

Hello experts,
I am working with the Contract Generation Variable Library and according to some of the Help documents, it is possible on the Contract Tokens to override the default values during Contract Generation.
I am not sure why, but on our system, this function doesnt seem to work.
So for eg, if my token "Valid From" picks up the value from the system, it becomes non-editable.
Effective Date | <%Agreement.EffectiveDate%> | 26-08-10
I would like to override the value 26-08-10 before the Document is generated.
Please let me know if anyone has faced this problem before and found a solution.
Thanks & Regards,
Reshma

I kept searching through MSDN and found a page that describes SqlPackage.exe (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh550080(v=vs.103).aspx). This page says that SQLCMD variables
can be specified on the command line.
"SqlPackage.exe initiates the
actions specified using the parameters, properties, and SQLCMD variables specified on the command line."
The page does not describe the syntax for specifying SQLCMD variables nor whether values specified on the command line overwrite any values in the .dacpac file. Can somebody confirm that specifying SQLCMD variable values on the command line will overwrite
any values included in the .dacpac at build-time?

How to select from multiple output tables in the SAP Data Source

Hi,
We're using the SAP Data Source to display SAP data in our portal from the Bapi: BAPI_INFORECORD_GETLIST. When defining the Bapi Meta Data we can select data from one of the two output tables (INFORECORD_GENERAL and INFORECORD_PURCHORG). But we want to select data from both tables (some columns we want to show are in INFORECORD_GENERAL and some are in INFORECORD_PURCHORG) .
How can we do this ?
With regards,
Ramon van der Weiden

You can query multiple TimesTen databases, but your original question was about joining tables from two databases, which is not supported.
Using Cache Connect to Oracle to query an Oracle database is not distributed. It's still one single Oracle database you are querying. You cannot join a table in the TimesTen database with a table in the Oracle database, this is not allowed.
If you are willing to share your business requiremens, we can take a look and see what solution might work for you. Would you like to discuss this offline?

Implementing Auto Contract Generation/Negotiation and Execution

Would love to hear from anyone that has implemented auto contract generation/negotiation and execution. Were there any lessons learned you could share during implementation? Were there things you found out - too late? Are you seeing adoption? How long did the implementation take? Pain points along the road? Things you would do differently? We are getting ready to take this trip ourselves and I have a feeling it will not be smooth sailing.

Hello Sravan
Your message isn't clear fo me
If you used import for new master data you can use automatic key generation ability for inbound port
The another way:
You can create special key field in MDM and
create simple workflow which fire when ADD record.
That worklflow call assignment which fill key field
