CRM ORDER CHANGE AND STATUS MANAGEMENT - workflow

Hi,
We have created a Changed method for bus2000120 which is configured to fire when the Order is saved via Status Management. We have added an entry to BSVW for the object, bus2000120.changed with no restrictions. We have also created a function module that checks to see if the user status is E0005 or E0007 or it deletes the object from the Event table. I see that this works correctly, however, a given SAVE of a transaction is firing 2 bus2000120.changed for the exact same user and system status. (I know that it is firing 2 bus2000120.changed because I ran swels and swel. The event was listed twice. Please remember that the Event table when read directly after the save only lists bus2000120.changed one time.)
There is only 1 entry in the event linkage(swetypv) for bus2000120.changed and it has a condition of the same user status, e0005 or e0007. No real problem here, however, since there were 2 firings it runs the workflow twice.
When you look at the extras-change documents you can see that the Header is changed twice, once for a system status and once for the user status. I am assuming that since there are 2 changes, this is what is doing both firings.
The funny thing is that if I fall into our custom code in debug where we are reading the status and event tables I only see bus2000120.changed.
Any ideas on how I might solve this problem? Do you believe I am correct in assuming that the 2 status changes to the header of the transaction is how both events are being fired? If not, any guidance you might give would be greatly appreciated.

Guidelines on Change documents and Status Management

Hi Friends,
 I am not sure whether this is the right question or not but I am in desprate need of it.
 The thing I find my self no where sometimes when I think of working on Chagne documents and Status management. I have been into WF for about 2 years. but never got a BEST chance to work on complicate workflows.
 Can anyone give me some ways or links where I can find clear difference between change docs and status mngt and how to work on those ?
 I did search in blogs but didnt find much. so posting a new thread. sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks

Oracle Change and Configuration Management packs

Hi,
We are looking at implementing the Oracle Change and Configuration Management packs.
I would be very interested to hear from anybosy who is currently using these packs.
I have done some preliminary tests, and am getting what seems like a very simple error, but i am at a loss as to how to fix it.
Will respond to replies with exact error and scenario.
thanks in advance.
melvyn

Hi Nayab,
We are looking to implement the change and configuration management packs, to automate our change control.
As part of my initial testing i have the following scenario...
I have three database (namely TEST_DB, QA_DB and PROD_DB) all configured and manageable in EM.
I have create a sample test schema in TEST_DB with tables, views, sequences, procedures and triggers.
Using EM, i am able to transfer the sample schema (with all objects) from the TEST_DB to the PROD_DB.
If i manually create the sample schema in the QA_DB, i am able to transfer the sample schema from the QA_DB to the PROD_DBm using EM.
When i try to transfer the sample schema from the TEST_DB to the QA_DB i get an error in the synchronization phase.
The capturing of the baseline, and the dictionary comparison phase complete successfully, but when i do the synchronization phase, i get
the follwing error...
SQL> ERROR:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
SVR4 Error: 2: No such file or directory
Process ID: 0
Session ID: 0 Serial number: 0
This seems strange because, it must have been able to see the destination database for it to complete the dictionary comparison phase, so
i cannot understand now why it cannot connect to the destination database to complete the synchronization phase.
any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

LCM Change and Release Management - How to maintain job integrity

Hi
We are using BO in a three scale landscape. DEV, QA and PRD are all are in a same network. I installed Business Objects Life Cycle Manager 3.1 SP3 on my dev system.
I created a job for DEV -> QA. (Multiple iterations - for changes in DEV while testing)
Once the final version is tested in QA, those objects suppose to be moved from QA -> PRD not directly from DEV -> PRD. Because when i make a copy of the existing job, that's not allow me to change the source system.
Now, my question is, I want to maintain integrity of job promotion, means I want to move the same objects which tested in QA to PRD,
1. DEV -> QA -> PRD. Is it possible in LCM or any other tool?
2. Is it possible to change the source system of LCM jobs?
3. To maintain the interity, is it required to create two jobs
DEV -> QA - Job1
QA -> PRD - Job2 (With same objects as in Job1)
4. What is the right approch for BO Change and Release Management?
Thanks
Deep

Same query as in How to maintain LCM job integrity while promoting?

Training and Event Management - WorkFlow Issue

Hi,
Can anyone clarify, if we copy the Active Workflow and make any changes to the copied workflow does it effect the Active workflow in any way?
We copied the active workflow which was working fine for another scenario and made changes to the copied version. Now the issue is the active workflow is giving error and not moving from one step/task to the next step/task. As one of the contributor suggested, we changed the attribute of the operation task as general task and it is moving to the next step, which is notification mail task and from here it is not moving futher.
Any help or suggestion is greately appreciated.
Regards

Hi,
If you have copied only the workflow template (object type WS) all changes you do to standard tasks (object type TS) inside the workflow will affect the original workflow template. So make sure that if you do change to standard task inside the workflow you make a copy also of that.

Need to shift to HANA , from Change and release management

Hi All,
Please advice me, I am working as Change and release coordinator , which is technology independent, i have hands on SQL and Mainframe, now i would like to shift my career to SAP HANA, please advice if this is a suitable option

Hi Chandru,
You have a very good job as a change and release coordinator. Why don't you try SAP Release Management job in project because it is a niche and good. If you learn SAP Solution Manager ChARM then it will take you to SAP Release Management job.
If you still looking for SAP HANA, then it can also suits but you can check SAP HANA Administrator. However, check out the option as SAP Release Management job.
Best of luck.

Condition is deleting in R/3 for CRM order change

Hi Experts,
I am Creating an Order in CRM (For Configuraable Material) and I can see Order created in R/3 with all condition records at item level. When I change the Sales Order in CRM, one particular condition record EK02 is deleting from Conditions. I applied 912697, 1225191, 1306890, 1389867, 1388898, 1062881, 1355049 Oss notes to resolve this issue. But there is no use.
Can any one help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks
Ramana

Hi Nilesh P,
Have you set the parameter PRICINGTYPE to G in table SMOFPARSFA as per note 490932 - 'G' = Copy price components unchanged. If so then the only possibility is to debug the transfer to ERP as per note 656823 in order to determine where the condition value is initialized.
I hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Vanessa.

CRM ORDER CHANGE / CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN

Hi Max.
Firt of all, Let me thank you for taking the time and replying to my question. Thank you again.
Now, Inyour reply, you said that it is a little tricky on how we fill in the BAPI structures, can you please explain how. I did try your advise with the sample code, but the order is still not changing. I am losing my mind here. I seriously need help. Here is my scenerio:
I extended the table CRMD_PARTNER with two date fields (Date to and Date From). I could not add these two fields to the order->partner tab table control as columns, so I creared a custom screen that mimics the data from Partner tab with my additional date fields as 2 columns. These dates need to be maintained.
So I tried to work with your sample code, populated my it_partner table with the record that I need to change, populated the LT_INPUT_FIELDS table with Object=partner, ref_kind=A, REF_GUID=MY_ORDER_GUID, LOGICAL_KEY=MY_LOGICAL_KEY and the field names are: DATE_FROM,DATE_TO,DISPLAY_TYPE, KIND_OF_ENTRY,NO_TYPE, PARTNER_NO. All fields are marked 'X' for changeable parameter. When I run my code, I get a subrc=0. when i look at the order in the system, i dont see my dates changed.
I am attaching my code below. Can you please help me out. What am i doing wrong. What am I missing. I even tried to call the CRM_PARTNER_BADI from my custom screen but that did not work either. Do I need to call the FM:order_maintain along with the PARTNER_BADI? HELP PLEASE. THANKS.

Thanks in Advance
Deepanker Dwivedi

Hello,
We have already implemented this in our old project.Please find below the solution.
No config change is required.
1.Go to tcode SWETYPV
2. Double click on your linkage.
3. You will see there check function module.
4. MAke a custom custom function module of yours and it will have CDPOS and CDHDR as its component.
5. When so pr is changed or created this function module will be triggered there you can identify whether pr is changed or not using cdpos and cdhdr.
6. If it is change raise two events one for completeion of old worklfows which are in process second for creation of new workflow instance.
7. Create a wait step in your workflow which will wait for the completion event to be raised.
Hope it helps.

CRM order message and notes table

Hi
we have Error/warning messages and notes in CRMD_ORDER (ie in CRM sales order). I am looking to get the tables for message number and notes. The purpose for this is I need to give these details to BW team for extraction. The standard extractor doesnt have these fields (ie message number or notes)
Here is the research I have done till now
1) for Messages people are suggesting to use FM - CRM_MESSAGES_DISPLAY which gives Log handle and Message number. with this data call CRM_MESSAGES_GET_MSG_INFO and this will give the Application area and message number which can be queried in T100 table
2) for notes I was suggested to use the FM - READ_TEXT
The option I have is use a user exit (extractor) and populate these data in the extractor before sending it to BW
Can you please let me know if message number and notes in a order can be directly queried from tables (is there a link table that connects the order GUID to the message table (T100) ?

Hi Veena
I tried this but it doesnt get me to the actual notes. I was able to query STXH which doesnt have the actual notes. So I further went into STXL table where there is a field called "Data" which looks like a big GUID but not sure if there is a another table I need to plug this to get the actual notes.
What I heard from the ABAP team is that there is no way to get this data through direct or link tables. We have to use the READ_TEXT FM

Purchase order Change and Display.

Dear Experts
I am using SAP 4.7 in this i have placed a po for the vendor. for this excise is different not in percentage that is amount. i have maintained the amount in
J1ID Exceptional excise rates. for plant,material,vendor combination. now im going to po display it is updated automatically without po change. it is directly taken from the J1id.
i want to control this without click carryout new pricing it should not get updated.
For example i Have entered GRN also. at the time of GRN time the excise amount is 1000 INR.
Now im changing the Excise as 2000 INR in J1id now im going to display the po. the 2000 INR excise is updated without change the po.
i want to control this. Without click carryout new pricing it should not get update. and After GR the excise should not change in the po.
any settings Required
Regards
Anand.

Hi,
I am not too sure about your question. What do You mean by a material selection menu.
Do You mean to say, when an user tries to create a PO, and tries filling up the line items, he presses a F4 on the material, to get the list of all materials, he can choose from, and he is not able to get the list of all materials.
If this is the case, then the issue has to do with the no. of hits (this is defaulted as 500 in the system). You have to delete this to get the entire list of materials (Keep in mind, this will give a max of 5000 entries in the list).

Birendra

PM Order change, and bad delivery date in the PR

Hello,
We use an open PM order for reccurrence activities. But when we add an external activity, the PR created use the delivery date calculated from the original start date of the order.
So the PO are wrong, and we relaunch vendors for being late.
Anyone has an idea ?
Regards,
Denis

An example in order to help :
i create an order on the 1st of january.
There is a lot of operation (subcontracting). They generate PR.
I add today an operation. The date is the current date, the 25 th of september.
I save, the PR is generated, but the delivery date is the 24th of september. And this date has been set in the operation in the order...
Thanks for your help.

Training and Event Management Workflow

Hi All,
I have a requirement to trigger a workflow (TEM), once Administrator does pre-booking for a particular course. It will have multilevel approval.
On approval from the approving authority, a course can be booked.
Is there a standrad workflow available?
Thanks!
Regards,
Chetan S. Wahane

Hi Chetan,
As far as I know there is no standard workflow for prebooking (although there is one for booking - WS01200151).
I guess you'll need to create your own.
Please check the following customization path for event triggering in case of prebooking activity:
SPRO : TEM - Basic settings - Tools - Business WF - Redefine event types
HEre infotype 1001 subtype A027 Update oper INS Activity PREB Otype PDRELA_027.

Project Server 2010 - Change Status Manager

End Goal: We would like to perform this change via SQL statement - which I believe I have I feel like I am missing something and not sure what it is.
Background: We migrated from a different product to Project Server 2010, while our team members were assisting users to move their projects from the old application to Project 2010 they did not realize their names would appear as status
managers.
The quick solution would be to tell the owners of the projects to change the information themselves (republish or go in themselves and change every line); however we feel this can be cumbersome and too much work due to having hundreds of projects and there
are thousands of fields that need to be modified. I can quickly accomplish what I want with an UPDATE command and be done with it (no user involvement).
What I am running into in my test environment is that I can modify the fields (query below) to the appropriate status manager, but I cannot get the changes to appear in Project Professional - it still shows the old value.
I have used the following command to change the Status Manager to the Project Owner (I'm new to SQL, and we no longer have a DBA - so if my code isnt the greatest...I'll fix it)
USE ProjectServer_ReportingUPDATE MSP_EpmTaskSET TaskStatusManagerUID = MSP_EpmProject.ProjectOwnerResourceUIDFROM MSP_EpmProjectWHERE MSP_EpmTask.ProjectUID = MSP_EpmProject.ProjectUID
This modifies all the values correctly - Project Owners become the Status Manager in SQL
Question: Is there something I am missing or can do OR I am not doing to make this new value show up? Is there a better way to do this from an administrative point of view, with no customer/user interaction?
Your help is greatly appreciated
Thank You
kbwrecker

Merely my personal opinion having been a Project Server 2010 admin in a medium-sized corporation:
I think you are going to seriously do some damage if you go about trying to modify SQL tables behind Project Server's back. There are a LOT of operations that go into a simple "publish" and I doubt that the minor changes you want to make will account for
all of them. Are you confident you're adjusting all of the values necessary? You may have a detrimental impact on in-flight approvals, timesheets, projects, tasks, assignments.. There is just far too much IMO.
Believe me, I know it is not an ideal solution to have the business make their own adjustments. However sometimes it is just what has to be done. My vote is to craft brief instructions and send them out to the PMs. It's easy to do, they can change one row
and then drag the field down like in Excel to edit all the rest; it's a 1-minute operation, max.
Due to the nature of the field, (not being something you can edit via PWA, and even in Project Pro it only allows you to change it to yourself or another current Status Mgr) I think you'll have a hard time scripting this one via macro etc.. However if you
do find a way, seriously keep in mind your scope and don't edit them all at once, it will need to kick off publishes and check-ins for all the affected projects.
Good luck!
