Conversion of Reservation to PR

Hi SAP Gurus,
Let me know is there any facility to convert reservation (Whose material are non-stock) directly to Purchase requision? Instead of creation of PR manually by user?
Waiting for your valuable reply.
VB

VB,
Reservation is a kind of requirement whilest purchase requisistion is a procurement proposal. They are two, totally different things.
E.g. header material is A, children part is "B" that is "A"'s BOM (let's say 1 pc "A" is produced 1 pc "B"). You create a PrdOrd of 10 pcs for material "A" > this will generate an order reservation of 10 pcs for material "B" > you run MRP > MRP generates a PurReq of 10 pcs for material "B" (depends on master data settings).
materual "B"
OrdRes 10 pcs -
PurReq 10 pcs +
So, procurement proposal is generated via MRP run for the requirement, but you cannot "convert" a requirement into a PR or PO, etc.

Csaba

Automatic conversion of reserved html character

A client is wanting to know if there is any special way to handle
          conversion of reserved html characters.
          Specifically, he has heard that some web servers can assign other
          values to represent these characters that are converted upon
          presentation of the web page.
          Has anyone heard of this feature?
          Thanks,

File Content Conversion: Remove reserved characters from Content

Hi PI Gurus,
we're facing a little problem with FCC in File Receiver Adapter. Sometimes the defined fieldSeparator ("|") comes within the field content.
e.g.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:Positions xmlns:ns0="http://test.com">
<Position>
<Value1>001</Value1>
<Value2>Test|Content</Value2>
</Position>
</ns0:Positions>
So, my first thought was to replace all "|" with a litte java mapping beind the actual mapping.
But, is there any possibility to achieve this via configuration of FCC (something like fieldSeperatorSubstitution)?
Help is as always highly appreciated!
Cheers,
Matthias Kral

Hello Hareenkumar,
yes you're totally right. I ran in several OutOfMemoryError while testing the code above. The errors started with messages over 15 MB.
Here's the code, that is productive now. It replaces all Pipes "|" by Slashes "|" and really works fine and performant.
public void execute(InputStream in, OutputStream out)
          throws StreamTransformationException {
          try {
               int totalCount = 0;
          byte[] buf = new byte[40960];
          int count = 0;
               while (count >= 0) {
                    count = in.read(buf);
                    totalCount += count;
                    if (count > 0) {
                         for (int i=0; i<count; i++){
                              if (buf<i>==124){
                                   buf<i> = 47;
                         out.write(buf, 0, count);
          } catch (IOException e) {
               throw new StreamTransformationException(e.getMessage());
Thank you all again!!!

Case conversion for SQL and PL/SQL reserved key words

Hi!
Do we have available in Developer automatic conversion of the reserved words to upper cases?
For example in vim, it is possible to customize such way that after typing a reserved word : 'create' as am example and I type next a space it automatically converts it to upper case: 'CREATE'
Thanks,
Radu

You can do it afterwards with Format (CTRL-F7), but that will rearrange everything in your worksheet.
Also using code completion, the reserved words are always lower case. This is very disturbing, as I have to fix the case afterwards and lose more time than I initially won using the code completion.
I recon the case should be converted automatically upon typing, using the settings from the formatter.
In case development doesn't agree right away, I've added a feature request: http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=42626:39:1041303283166847::NO::P39_ID:10621
Please go vote to add weight to see it implemented.
Thanks,

XML data from BLOB to CLOB - character set conversion

Hi All,
I'm trying to solve a problem with a character set conversion in PL/SQL in the following scenario:
1. source is an XML as a BLOB variable.
2. target is an XML as a CLOB variable.
3. the problem I have is the following:
- database character set is set to UTF-8
- XML character set could be anything (UTF-8, ISO 8859-1, ISO 8859-2, ASCII, ...)
- I need to write a procedure which converts the source BLOB content into the target CLOB taking into account the XML encoding and converts it into the DB default character set (UTF8).
I've been able to implement a simple conversion function. However, this function expects static XML encoding ISO-8859-1. The main part of the function looks as follows:
buffer := UTL_RAW.cast_to_varchar2(
UTL_RAW.convert(
DBMS_LOB.SUBSTR(source_blob_variable, 16000, pos)
, 'American_America.UTF8'
, 'American_America.we8iso8859p1')
Does anyone have an idea how to rewrite the code to handle "any" XML encoding in the source BLOB file? In other words, is there a function in Oracle which converts XML character set names into Oracle character set values (ISO-8859-1 to we8iso8859p1, UTF-8 to UTF8, ...)?
Thanks a lot for any help.
Julius

I want to pass a BLOB to some "createXML" procedure and get a proper XMLType in UTF8 character set, properly converted from whatever character set is the input in.As per documentation the generated XML has always the encoding set at the client side depending on NLS_LANG (default UTF-8), regardless of the input encoding, so I don't see a need to parse the PI of the XML:

Conversion of 1.2 JATO project (non-Forte IDE) to S1AF (JATO) 2.0

JATO Team,
First of all, thank you very much for the Studio integration. It
looks very promising in terms of development time consumption,
deployment to S1AS7, etc., etc. It is impossible to observe all
advantages for so short period of time.
The SOAF (JATO) 2.0 is installed on the top of the Sun ONE Studio 4,
update 1 (EE) with JDK 1.4 along with the Sun One Application Server
7 (W2000). Everything looks okay, at least all basic tasks listed in
the "Getting Started" manual (project/view/model creation, basic db
connection, running of a test application with the usage of the
Studio's default Tomcat container, etc.) work proper.
During the installation of S1AF module on the top of the Sun ONE
Studio 4, update 1 (EE) I've got an invitation to convert the
existing project to the new environment. As I realized the only JATO
project integrated/created with Forte IDE is applicable for this auto-
conversion (please correct me, if I am wrong. It could solve a lot of
my problems).
Since we are using JBuilder5 IDE and our JATO 1.2 project is
integrated with this IDE I manually re-created project in the Studio
with its file structure, adjusted the project web.xml file, etc. This
new project looks like a proper one (Studio recognize all methods,
fields, bean patterns, e.g.) except at least one "small" thing. All
java files (project viewBeans, Models, custom viewBeanHelpers a.k.a.
pure java) came up with the same wizard image:java class. Stutio with
the S1AF module reserves the special images (and appropriate studio
properties, of course!) for View and Model. Namely this allows to see
the following structure for a ViewBean, for example, in the Studio:
Modules
ProjectName.ModuleName
FooViewBean
JavaSource
JSPs
Non-Visual Components
View Components
On the other hand, I could add either new View or Model in my
manually converted project and add any View Component or bind the
Model fields, for example. Also, the ProjectModuleServlet has been
converted proper. I tried to convert each View/Model class inside the
Studio to its proper wizard image and failed. Addition of a View
Components (with an appropriate code fragments) via the Studio or
auto-binding of model fields is an essential part of 2.0 and should
drastically speed up the development process as it is designed.
Questions:
1. What I missed in my manual conversion of 1.2 JATO project to the
SOAF (JATO) 2.0 realm? What should I correct in my JATO 1.2
compatible classes (Views and Models) to be recognizable by Studio
wizard (JATO 2.0)?
To be more specific. Some deltas between JATO 1.2 and JATO 2.0 are as
follows (related to a ViewBean):
====++++++++++++++======
JATO 1.2 viewBean extension upon creation:
public class FooViewBeanViewBean extends ViewBeanBase
implements ViewBean
========================
JATO 2.0 (S1AF) version: viewBean extension upon creation:
public class FooViewBean extends BasicBeanBase
====++++++++++++++======
JATO 1.2 viewBean createChild(...) method for one static looks
like:
protected View createChild(String name)
if (name.equals(CHILD_STATICTEXT1))
StaticTextField child = new StaticTextField
(this,
getDefaultModel(),
CHILD_STATICTEXT1,
CHILD_STATICTEXT1,
CHILD_STATICTEXT1_RESET_VALUE,
null);
return child;
========================
JATO 2.0 (S1AF) version: viewBean createChild(...) is renamed (as
a least) to createChildReserved(...):
protected View createChildReserved(String name) {
if (name.equals(CHILD_STATICTEXT1)) {
com.iplanet.jato.view.BasicDisplayField child =
new com.iplanet.jato.view.BasicDisplayField(this,
STATICTEXT1);
return child;
====++++++++++++++======
JATO 1.2 viewBean registerChildren() method for the basic field
types looks like:
private void registerChildren() {
registerChild(CHILD_STATICTEXT1, StaticTextField.class);
registerChild(CHILD_TEXTFIELD1, TextField.class);
registerChild(CHILD_BUTTON1, Button.class);
========================
JATO 2.0 (S1AF) version: viewBean registerChildren() method:
private void registerChildren() {
registerChild(CHILD_STATICTEXT1,
com.iplanet.jato.view.BasicDisplayField.class);
registerChild(CHILD_TEXTFIELD1,
com.iplanet.jato.view.BasicDisplayField.class);
registerChild(CHILD_BUTTON1,
com.iplanet.jato.view.BasicCommandField.class);
Is it correct to say that all existing custom Views/Models
(compatible with JATO 1.2) should be converted to their JATO 2.0
variants to be visible by the Studio?
On the other hand, fast overview of 2.0 API shows that the JATO 1.2
is a sub-set of the 2.0 (BasicViewBean extends ViewBeanBase, for
example). What exactly (only deprecated methods?) should be adjusted
in the project code (1.2), if necessary, to be visible by Studio as a
View or Model component?
2. Where it is possible to find the list of deprecated methods (from
JATO 1.2 to JATO 2.0 versions). It is difficult sometimes to compare
two versions of API docs (1.2 and 2.0) or compare logs between
versions. Also, JATO 2.0 is significantly larger than 1.2 version. If
the later obviously inherits the ND conversion stage (via the
previous versions), the former obviously has additions incoming from
the integration with the Studio (a.k.a. Forte 4.0).
3. What is the current/future Sun/JATO Team policy with regards to
JATO source code access (version 2.0, at least)? The reason of this
question is as follows: in order to display dates formatted on the
screens we adjusted a couple of JATO 1.2 core classes, for example.
The only minimal, absolutely necessary changes in JATO 1.2 was made,
but anyway...
Sorry for so long multiple question. As Todd wrote in his
announcement mail: "We think you will be very pleased with the new
product...". This is exciting moment, I believe, for JATO Team as
well as for any team involved into the conversion of the full size
application/product from ND to J2EE realm with the JATO as
an application framework (1.0, 1.1.x, 1.2.X, and 2.0 finally). The
last step is left in this spiral process to enjoy the ND_Studio
attractive features in the open source environment.
Thank you very much in advance.
Vladimir Ivanov

I'll get some file templates ASAP and provide them to the group.
As for source code, I'm not sure what the policy is. JATO 1.2 is very
close to what JATO 2.0 is, so that should suffice for now.
The community will be informed when we know more about source availibility.

Craig,
Thank you for the answer. To be honest with you I tried to do exactly
the same: I created the small test project and made an attempt to
adjust the existing *.xml files to the new ones. I got some results,
otherwise I couldn't even see my original 1.2 project in the Studio.
Since I am a newcomer in the Studio, I definitely missed something in
my adjustments. I'll try to observe my changes with the fresh head.
On the other hand, I am afraid that my samples are very pure. If you
could post or send me examples of jatoapp.xml and web.xml files (say
for any of you test project) or excerptions from them with the
appropriate patterns (ViewBean and Model peers, at least), I would be
very appreciated. My mail is: vivanov@b...
In the worst-case scenario I see the workaround: to re-create the
project for one of our releases with the Forte 4.1 IDE and auto-
convert it into the JATO 2.0/Studio world using the Studio
facilities. We must get the current project fully
integrated/converted with/to the Studio (at certain point) because,
first, we expect massive coding with the GUI components involved soon
and, secondly, we have around thousand classes related to JATO only
(and a lot of extras).
Coming back to the question #3 from this post. Now we have full
access to the version 1.2, not only to the JATO 1.2 jar file(I
explained some reasons below). Would we expect the same Sun/JATO Team
policy with JATO 2.0?
Thank you again,
Vlad

It doesn't appear that anyone has responded to this so I am goingto
give you the short answer:
The reason you don't see your ViewBeans and Models showing up with
there "wizard created" icons is because of just that. They weren't
created via the wizards. The wizards create xml formatted filesthat
contain metadata of how/what to generate for the ViewBeans and
Models.
ViewBeans will have a .viewbean fiel, Models will have a .sqlmodel
file (for SQL Models), etc. The content of these files describesthe
code that needs to be generated in the corresponding Java classfile.
So LoginViewBean.java will have a peer LoginViewBean.viewbean file.
The code that is generated is place in protected code blocks thatcan
not be modified in the Studio and should not be modified outsidethe
Studio because the code will likely be regenerated and custom mods
inside the protected blocks will be lost.
Now you can make a JATO 1.2 app appear in the Studio just like aJATO
2.0 app by adding a jatoapp.xml file with the proper content and
adjusting your web.xml properly, but it's much more work to getyour
v1.2 ViewBeans and Models to show up like wizard created versions.
Furthermore, even more work to get the display fields to show up
visually.
The good news is that v1.2 ViewBeans will work with newly wizard
created ViewBeans. And if you do go through the trouble of making
your ViewBeans Studio visible like your wizard created ViewBeans,
adding new display fields visually will work along side yourmanually
created fields.
Try creating a new JATO app using the Studio wizards and then go to
the Filesystems tab and look for the jatoapp.xml file and theweb.xml
file.
I am looking for an email that I have that explains how to do a
partial, manual upgrade.
Also, you will get rid of your JATO 1.2 jar and replace with theJATO
2.0 jar in your lib dir.
Hope this will suffice for now.

Best Practice for Conversion Workflow

Hello,
I'm converting video files from our "home grown" virtual media reserve to iTunes U. Some of the files are in RM format, some are already compressed .mov's (not H.264) and some I have the original DV files for.
Anyone out there have a best practice for converting these file types for posting to iTunes U? I have Final Cut Studio (Compressor), QT Pro and Squeeze available to me.
Any experience you have with this would be helpful.
Thanks,
Jeana

For converting old files to a podcast compatible video and based on the machine you have, consider elgato turbo.264. It is a fairly priced "co-processor" for video conversion. It is comprised of an application and a small USB device with a encoder chip in it. In my experience, it is the fastest way to create podcast video files. The amount of time that you will save will pay for the device quickly (about $100). Plus it does batch conversion of any video that your system currently plays through QuickTime. it has all the necessary presets and you can create your own. It has a few minor limitations such as not supporting (at this moment) enhanced podcasting features such as chapter markers and closed-captions but since you have old files for conversion, that won't matter.
For creating new content, the workflow varies a lot. Since you mention MP3s, I guess you are also interested in audio files. I would stick with GarageBand, especially if you are a beginner plus it supports enhanced podcasts.
In any case the most important goal is to have the simplest and fastest way to go from recording to publication. The less editing the better. To attain that, the best methods will require the largest investments. For example, for video production the best way is to produce the content live so when you finish recording it is only a matter of encoding and publishing. that will require the use of a video switcher that can ingest at least one video camera and a computer output to properly capture presentation material. That's the minimum. there are several devices that can do this for you. Some are disguised PCs and some connect to a PC for tapeless recording. You can check the Tricaster, which I like but wish it was a Mac and not a Windows Xp PC. Other routes may include video mixers from manufacturers like Edirol, Pansonic or Sony connected to a VTR or directly to a Mac for direct-ti-disc capture. I f you look at some of the content available in iTunes U, you will see what I explain here. This workflow requires preparation and sufficient live support but you will have your material ready for delivery almost immediately after the recorded event. No editing required. Finally, the most intensive workflow is to record everything separately and edit it later, which is extremely time consuming.

PM Work Order Conversion Advice

Experts,
We are currently implementing ECC 6.08 and have a requirement to convert open and historical work orders during the implementation phase. While we have already selected a BAPI to load the data into the target system, we are now struggling to understand what financial impacts we must watch out for, and how to reconcile related documents (purchase orders, reservations, etc.).
Has any one completed a conversion of Open PM Work Orders (transaction IW31) in the past u2013 either manually or via an automated conversion?
If so u2013 how did you manage the complexities of related documents, reconciliation of financial transactions, etc?
Any advice, old documentation, or planning materials that you may have from a previous project would be fantastic!
Thanks in advance!

Hi Ranganathan,
You can use Tcode IW61 to create Historical Orders. The historical orders has no goods movements & settlement. You can directly enter the actual cost during historical order creation.Those orders can be used for cost analysis.

Error in Conversion of Planned Orders to AFS production Orders

Dear Mam/Sir,
We are working in AFS Scenario.There are following observations during
AFS BOM/Planned order conversion/Material availabilty as follows:
1) When Item category 'T'(Text Item) is used ,with 'witout fixed qty. indicator'in AFS BOM,then during the MRP Run BOM gets exploded & dependent requirements are created for AFS /non-AFS Components. But, when Bill of Material Tab is accessesd in the Planned Order system throws error'REQUIRED PARAMETER MISSING WHEN CALLIN UP MODULE MARC_SINGLE_READ'.When this planned order is converted to Production order, Order reservation is created only for NON-AFS(std. component).
2) When a Planned order(with all BOM components item category 'L') is converted ,then system gives error in material availability check : Message no.AG022'An error occurred during Remote Function call on the ATP Server'.
3) When for a AFS material BOM components with item category'L' is used an order is created.during material availabilty check system shows missing part. The moment a 'text' item is added in BOM the for the same order system commits all components.Though components are missing.
Kindly advise.
regards,
Stuti

Hi,
Good to know that your problem is resolved.
But the error you mentioned appears may be because of configuration problems.
You should check what is account assignment category mentioned in the corresponding requirement class for the strategy group you have used in the materials master.
Also you should check the settlement profile that you have used for your order types.
The account assignment category and settlement profile maintained, must be set properly so that allowed transactions are executed.
Also, there is problem with the message itself which appears for many reasons. More particularly when you are in MTO / ETO scenario or using WBS to create orders.This make it difficult to check the correct cause of the problem!!

Conversions between character sets when using exp and imp utilities

I use EE8ISO8859P2 character set on my server,
when exporting database with NLS_LANG not set
then conversion should be done between
EE8ISO8859P2 and US7ASCII charsets, so some
characters not present in US7ASCII should not be
successfully converted.
But when I import such a dump, all characters not
present in US7ASCII charset are imported to the database.
I thought that some characters should be lost when
doing such a conversions, can someone tell me why is it not so?

Not exactly. If the import is done with the same DB character set, then no matter how it has been exported. Conversion (corruption) may happen if the destination DB has a different character set. See this example :

Conversion of csv in flat file to oracle table format

hi friends
I have written a C code for conversion of flat file data to Comma seperated values
Now i have to put this .csv file into oracle tables.
Please suggest me a solution to this so that i can put this values into oracle tables
Regards,
Mahesh

You can use Sql*Loader (sqlldr) :
TEST@db102 SQL> create table test (a varchar2(30), b varchar2(30), c varchar2(30));
Table created.

This is an error due to conversion failed from character string to int datatype. Infact, the table column contains "NO" value which you are trying to convert to Int/SUM which is illegal. Without your code and table structure, its difficult to pinpoint your
actual issue. But check, all columns for value "NO".

Available bandwindth and 'max-reserved bandwidth'

Is the max-reserved bandwidth only important when working with Qos classes and the bandwidth statement? Is the default 75% available bandwidth only used then?
In other words if I have a 100MB link with a service policy applied for Voice, Call-Control and video. After that I notice the available bandwidth on thie 100MB link is 61280 kilobits/sec.
If I put in a 'max-reserved bandwidth 95' would I reclaim another 20MB of bandwidth for the class-default? Would leaving 5% on the 100MB link for routing and other stuff be acceptable?

Export/import character data conversion in NLS_LANG FAQ
