CSR offers pricing/data service adjustment in response to my leaving inquiry; then another CSR denies availability of adjustment...hello?

So, I did the "test drive" and somewhat surprisingly found the data/voice coverage pretty darn good, even when I went out of town. I am a long-time customer so I decided to inquire with Verizon to see if there were any adjustments to my plan that could be made to save me money and prevent my having to switch. On 09/10 the CSR analyzed my account and stated that Verizon wanted me to stay and that they'd be willing to knock $30 a month off my plan and give me 500 MB extra for each line. I told her I'd think about it. I called back yesterday (09/16) to ask for more details (i.e. extended contract?) and was told that while they could offer the additional 500 MB of data, they could not honor the $30 discount. I'm paying a premium for the service, but not receiving a product that is clearly better for my personal needs. As a matter of fact, the alternative(s) offer qualitatively equal coverage (for me), and much more appealing ancillary benefits such as paying my ETF's, more data, less cost, free unlimited music streaming, etc. Anyone have a similar situation/problem? Should I just call it a day and bail on big V? Hell, I feel lied to at this point.

Thanks for the reply. I am happy with my coverage and service in general, but I’m not happy with the high cost or the data limit inherent to my current plan. Other carriers offer lower cost, comparable coverage in my area, and more data. I’m also clearly not satisfied with my calls to CC; the first agent actually wanted to argue with me regarding the validity of one of the competition’s offers. I told her I was not interested in arguing the point with her as I was reading the offer verbatim from the competitor’s website. Anyway, my call to CC was to inquire if anything could be done to make my Verizon plan more competitive. My current plan is the More Everything Plan with 3GB of data shared between four lines. Even with only three smartphones on my plan and leaning heavily on Wi-Fi, that’s too little data, especially considering the high cost. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Cancel invoice by VF11
Then again create invoice by VF01 and maintain pricing date on initial screen.
OR ELSE,
Go to SE16N in edit mode >> Put table VBRK
Specify invoice number and execute and change price.

Can you explain what exactly cdc mean in data services......?

Hello!
I would like to know what exactly change data capture (cdc) mean in data services......?

Hi sudheer kore
CDC is basically a technical term - Change data capture. We use a few approaches to work capture changed data during ETL process. This can be called incremental approach/ delta loading of data.
Source Based CDC
-Using a timestamp, date, datetime, or int column to uniquely identify the next "band" of rows to be loaded into the delta process in combination with a status table, global variable, and where clauses of the query transform. This is demonstrated in the Tutorial file provided with Data Services in the CDC chapter.
-Using the Database native CDC functionality, available in Oracle, SQL Server and I believe Attunity
Changes are replicated to change tables in the source, marked as insert/update/delete. Data Services can natively read these tables through the use of CDC Datastore objects and Map_CDC_Operation transform.
Target Based CDC
-Must be used if the methods above are not available. The Table_Comparison transform is capable of comparing all source records to the target table to determine if an INSERT or UPDATE is required for that row.
Few links that would explain this better

Service Desk: Pricing data for partner could not be read

Hi all,
I am trying to configure the Service Desk functionality for Service Providers (on EHP1).
I follow the SAP Documentation (SAP Solution Manager: Service Desk for Service Providers) and SLA's made easy in SAP Solution Manager. Also some discussion threads helped me with some steps (I applied e.g. the recommendation from Pricing data for partner 106 could not be read. , but it didn't help).
I am facing some errors related to the CRM part of the configuration.
When I create Service Desk Contract (SLFV) in CRMD_ORDER, the error appears Pricing data for partner xxx could not be read. I checked the setting of BP and I am not able to find the reason, for customer's (sold-to-party) BP the sold-to-party > Sales Area Data the Sales Organization/Distribution Channel/Division are maintained. Which information for pricing is needed and where can it be configured?
Another error - I am sure it is related to the first one - the service contract cannot be determined in the service message (in Item details view under product). The error messages are about sales area/organization, so I suppose there is something wrong with the link Service Contract -> Business Partner definition.
Could you please help me what can cause the error?
Thanks in advance,
Vaclav

Hi Balaji.S,
my problem was solved when I double checked the settings of org structure. That means there must be a consistent setting for sales organization / distribution channel / division in businness partner (tcode BP), organizational model (PPOMA_CRM), product workbench (COMMPR01). The setting must be same for both the sales department of the service provider and the customer's company (I am sorry I am not CRM, so I am following just this simple logic)
In the long text of the error (in CRMD_ORDER) I could see "expected" combination for sales organization / distribution channel / division (message e.g. The access was carried out with sales organization 'O 50000613', distribution channel '01' and division '') -> when the org model was set up everywhere in this way, the contract was automatically filled by the organization data and in the next step the contract could be determined in the service desk message.
Anyway it took some time to find out the correct combination. Deeper CRM knowledge would help me much.

Pricing date change on service order when creating confirmation.

Hi gurus,
I want to change the pricing date (and recalculate prices)on service order to the date confirmation is created from the service order.I would like to know if this can be achieved by copy control BADI or order save BADI or pricing BADI ?
Please guide if anybody has already achieved this functionality.
Thanks
Dona

Hi Dona,
Pricing manipulation for an order can be done by using CRM_PRICING_BADI.Use the method CRM_PRICING_MERGE, here you can use the changing parameter CS_PRICING_BADI to change the pricing data.
Hope it helps you.

Shweta

Pricing date for Service Order and Service Confirmation

Hi,
I cretated a Service Confirmation as followup for Service Order.
Client is asking "Pricing Date" should be same Same in Service Order and Service Confirmation. But, I am not seeing any such field in the screen.
I need to check T&C field and Zone field. But, I am not seeing these fields also.
Can you please let me know, where can I find this fields. (In which assignment block).
Thanks,
Sandeep
Edited by: Sandeep Reddy on May 31, 2010 7:21 PM

Hi,
I think by PRICING DATE they mean BILLING DATE.
In date profile of SERVICE ORDER and SERVICE CONFIRMATION you assign the BILLING DATE date type (i think it is there in the standard itself- however just ensure it).
Or customize a PRINCING DATE date type in the DATE PROFILE of SERVICE ORDER and CONFIRMATION and copy the date set in SERVICE ORDER to SERVICE CONFIRMATION.
This is one strategy you can use.

GZIP-Encoded HTTP Response in adobe air and flex data service

Hello,
I am using data centric service in flash builder 4 (beta 2) to call betfair web service. The application is working well.
But betfair told me to set the encoding to gzip when requesting the web service. I had used httpHeaders to add new header.
         var bfHeader:Object=new Object();
         bfHeader["Accept-Encoding"]= "gzip";
         _serviceControl.httpHeaders = bfHeader;
Now when I run the application, network monitor shows both the request and response is encoded in gzip format, network monitor itself uncompressed the content and showed it. But I don't know how to uncompress the content. As the content is compressed, I could not call any data service.
I have tried to use the convertResultHandler. But actually don't know how to use it correctly.
Please help me. Its important
Thanks in advance.

Hello bahar08
Its been a long while since you posted your topic but I've just found it after being getting stuck with this exact problem. There is a gzip decompressor my Danny Patterson that might help. I've added the header in as well but the responces don't seem to be coming down in a compressed format.
It would be cool to chat with you about this.

IPhone 5 cellular data services failing

ISSUE/SYMPTOMS: iPhone 5 ONLY: Cellular Data stops intermittingly, cellular data locks up without warning, Wi-Fi data connection not working on occasion, iCloud contacts, calendar and reminders not updating, Find My Phone not working, mail or Internet not available or server time-outs. No error messages though. All of these are symptoms of no data service. Problems seem to be related to iPhone 5 failing to switch between LTE and 4G or 3G data services on AT&T.
My iPhone 5 32GB AT&T version (iOS 6.0.2) along with my clients and family using iPhone 5 in the state of Oklahoma are having this issue on their AT&T iPhone 5's: no cellular data connection re-established if at anytime the LTE connection is lost or weak. As with iPhone's prior to iPhone 5, the iPhone 5 is supposed to drop down to the next tier of data service and re-connect to cellular data service when the higher speed cellular data service is not available. Apparently this is not working well on the iPhone 5.
What led me to research this LTE issue was that my iPhone was not syncing on iCloud with contacts, calendars and reminders with my other iOS devices. Other times this issue became apparent was when iMessage quit sending and receiving until I would reboot my iPhone (sometimes it would finally send the message as a “text message”). When I had these problems I also found out I was not getting any cellular data service for Internet browsing, mail, Maps, Find My iPhone, etc. This would happen without notice. In other words I would not receive any notice or error message that data service had stopped other than the fact I was not receiving any mail, iMessages, or iCloud sync updates. My only resolution was to reset or reboot my iPhone several times a day, and that would resolve it about 70% of the time.
I have talked to Apple Support on 2-3 occasions in the last week and AT&T Support twice in the last 2 days. If it is really true, only the AT&T Technical Support Advisor informed me of a nationwide issue relating to iPhone 5 and LTE: iPhone 5's are not re-connecting to 4G or 3G cellular data service once the LTE data connection is lost or dropped... the voice calls continue to work, but cellular data service fails and stays locked up without an error message until the customer reboots the iPhone.
Obviously this is very unacceptable. We depend on these data services and at minimum need to know when it stops working instead of finding out from a phone call that someone sent us an important email or something.
The AT&T representative also said that both AT&T and Apple are aware of and are working on the issue as it is a nationwide problem with iPhone 5 and LTE. The Apple Support Advisors I talked to made no mention of this "known" issue. AT&T said that it is partly AT&T responsibility because the capacity of LTE is overloaded and cellular data connections are dropping because of the lack of coverage and/or capacity. They actually refunded my data service for a whole month in apology for the inconvenience (I did not even ask for that--I just want my data service to work). But they also said that Apple has responsibility in this issue because the iPhone 5 should drop down and re-connect to the next lower tier of data service when LTE is not available or lost; instead, it is locking up somehow or it still thinks it is connected to LTE when it is actually not. I don't know how accurate these statements are, but my problem is real.
TEMPORARY WORK-AROUND / FIX FROM AT&T: Disable LTE on the iPhone 5. Or when you figure out that data is not coming to your iPhone, use Airplane Mode ON/OFF for a few seconds to force re-connection to a tower without rebooting the iPhone. You can Disable LTE on the iPhone 5 in SETTINGS/GENERAL/CELLULAR. I have disabled LTE on my iPhone 5 and have not had any of these cellular data issues since.
Disabling LTE is not acceptable either, but it is working. At least I seem not be losing connection or locking up without knowing it. In my office over the course of a day, my iPhone 5 will jump back and forth on LTE and 4G sitting in the same place. Disabling LTE has stopped this and the problem, but the iPhone 5 should switch cellular data services seemlessly just like the phone switches towers on a phone voice call seemlessly (most of the time).
WI-FI ALSO STOPS WORKING SOMETIMES AFTER THIS LTE disconnect / lock-up issue: That has been my experience along with my clients and family as well. If you use Wi-Fi a lot on your iPhone it will hide this LTE issue until you leave your Wi-Fi and get on LTE and then drop LTE (silently) and then go back to your Wi-Fi. My experience has been I have to reboot the iPhone to even get Wi-Fi working again after that happens.
I do not know if some of these comments and analysis are really accurate or valid or not... all I know for sure is since I upgraded my iPhone to the 5 along with my other family members and clients, we have had "no data" on many occasions and are continually rebooting our iPhones and looking for what is wrong.
My questions to the support community are these:
     1. Is anyone else having this issue? Or is it just me and my few? Maybe a lot of people do not realize they are not getting their data because they are on Wi-Fi most of the time or they are just rebooting and not trying to identify the real problem. AT&T said it was nationwide iPhone 5/LTE issue. Anyone else heard that from either Apple or AT&T?
     2. Is this an iPhone 5 / Apple issue or is AT&T solely responsible? Or is it both? Where do we get a solution??? Is AT&T LTE holding false connections with iPhone 5 or is the iPhone 5 failing to recognize a dropped LTE cellular data connection and then failing to attempt to re-connect with 4G or 3G?
     3. Did I miss where this issue is posted? I searched Apple Support and Communities and did not get any hits. Any updates or further insight on the issue? Any other fixes other than Disabling LTE?
      4. If this is in fact a real issue belonging in part to the iPhone 5, we need to escalate Apple’s attention to it.
Thanks in advance for your help and feedback.

Thank you fellow users and experts for your feedback and updates. Sorry about the large font on the original post... accidental via cut and paste.
I have escalated the issue with both Apple and AT&T. I actually got senior level troubleshooters from both Apple and AT&T on the phone at the same time... rare moment. Here are the key points of the update:
     1. AT&T did NOT confirm the earlier statement by another AT&T Technical Support Agent that this was an emerging nationwide issue about iPhone 5 and LTE losing data connection and not reconnecting at a lower level or re-connecting to LTE once the signal came back. So that earlier statement was not accurate as suspected by all of us. The senior tech at AT&T said he has seen this issue sporadically over the last month or so, but only with about 3-4 customers. He said it seems to be location or phone dependent (some phones not all phones).
     2. The Apple Tech was satisfied that all that could be done to eliminate my issues possibly relating to my instance of software / iOS had been accomplished except erasing my iPhone and restoring as a new phone (I have avoided this inconvenience with the argument that other family/clients with the iPhone 5 have had the same problem).
     3. AT&T went so far as to examine which towers I had been connecting to over the last week and looked at other technical data that could possibly explain the issue. I now know I have 3 towers that provide LTE within 4 miles of my home/office, one within a half mile. But so far there is nothing to explain or even properly identify the issue. AT&T offered me to take my phone to an AT&T store, try to force replicate the problem there, if so, the store would put my SIM card in a brand new iPhone 5 (just to test) and try tor replicate the problem again. If replicated on a new phone, there is a deeper issue; if resolved on a new phone, the answer is obvious. I have not taken the time to do this yet.
     4. On Friday, Jan 4, 2013 while talking and between the tech support calls (on a different phone), I was able to re-create the problem 2 separate times in my home/office by forcing my iPhone to weaken its connection to service (burying it under electronic gear) and then waiting a few minutes, then trying to browse the Internet--no data service unless I manually reset the connection. I am only able to cause the issue to occur if there is at least 15 min of idle time after a weak signal condition AND only if I don’t completely lose a connection to cellular voice service. It seems that if you go down to NO SERVICE the phone will do new a search and keep searching until reconnects to LTE or other signals correctly, but a weak connection seems to be strong enough for voice service but can sometimes cause the LTE data service to stop without reconnecting to LTE, 4G or 3G unless I manually intervene. It also seems that idle time with a weak connection is also necessary to re-create the problem manually. Since Friday, I have not been able to re-create the problem. This has been an intermittent problem, so who knows.
FYI, I have never had this problem with my new iPad (also on AT&T LTE) that has been with me when the iPhone fails to have data service, but my iPad is never in my pocket or other places with perhaps less signal.
Again, if you are connected to Wi-Fi on your iPhone 5 most of the time, you may never notice this issue if you are even having it.
So far no progress on the real issue or resolution, but both Apple and AT&T have put forth very admirable effort.
If you or others you know are having this issue, please take the time to post a reply to this issue. Thank you.

Unable to create records in database using PHP Data Service

Hello, I've been stuck on this for a few days and search up and down for this on the net, no response I've found has worked, so I come to you...
Here are the steps I've taken, I think it's pretty standard
1. I have a macbook pro running osx 10.7.3
2. I installed MAMP all default (I've acually reinstalled this because someone suggested this might fix it)
3. Thru phpMyAdmin I created a database called my_test
4. In that database I created a table, this is the export of that table: (I've also tried this with InnoDB which is the default)
CREATE TABLE `customer` (
`id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`name` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
`email` varchar(150) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
UNIQUE KEY `id` (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;
5. I created a new Flx Project (Running Flash Builder 4.5.1 Premium)
     Project Name: PHPTest
     Application Type: Desktop (Although I've done the same thing with Web and got the same results)
     >> Next
     Application Server Type: PHP
     Web Root: /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/
     URL Root: http://localhost:8888/
     Clicked 'Validate Configuration' and that worked
     Output Folder: /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/PHPService (default by Flash Builder)
     >> Finished
6. On the Data/Services tab on the bottom I click 'Connect to Data/Service...'
     Select 'PHP'
     >> Next
     Select 'Click here to generate a sample'
     Select 'Generate from database' radio button
     Username: root
     Password: root (default for MAMP)
     Host name: localhost
     Server port: 8889 (default for MAMP MySQL port, the HTTP port default is 8888 which in both cases seem to work but every video I've seen that uses MAMP on youtube uses 8889)
     Database: my_test
     Click 'Test Connection' (works)
     Table: customer
     Primary Key: id (this field is greyed out and Flash Builder selects 'id' which it figures out from the SQL table)
     >> Click OK
7. Then if I don't have the Zend Framework folder in my /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/ folder it tells me its going to create that and I say alright. Then Flash Builder says stuff about how this is really only for testing and not production server ready and I say alright.
8. Then it takes me back to the Form from Step 6 when I get the chance to select 'Click here to generate a sample'
     These fields are now filled with this data automaticly:
     PHP Class: /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/PHPTest/services/CustomerService.php
     Service name: CustomerService
     Service package: services.customerservice
     Data type package: valueObjects
     >> Click Next (shows all the functions that will be now availible)
     >> Click Finished (End of the forms and it opens Dreamweaver to the php file it created CustomerService.php which I have no need to edit so I close that down)
9. Back in Flash Builder I switch to design view and drag a datagrid onto the big white area in the middle, whatever that is called.
10. Then below in Data/Services tab on the bottom I click drag the function 'GetAllCustomer' on top of the datagrid.
     I say yes to rebound and click ok and the view of the datagrid is updated with the colums from the 'customer' table in mySQL.
(Now let me say that when I hit save and compile this, if I actually had records in this table that I insert thru phpMyAdmin, this does show in the datagrid. So for the whole CRUD thing I am able to get the R which is Read)
11. Now going back to the design view in Flash Builder I will create a form to create records in the table... (I guess this isn't really a step)
12. In the Data/Service tab on the bottom I select 'createCustomer' function and then there is an icon called 'Generate Form' that looks like a white piece of paper with a gear on the bottom of it.
13. This opens up a new form and since I don't have a crazy bunch of fields in my table I just click Finished (If you click next you can specify which fields you want to exclude from the form but this time I don't need to)
14. This actually creates 2 forms if you look at the code, the second just shows the return type from when you click 'CreateCustomer' button on the first form. Because they overlap in design view I drag the form out of the way so you can see the input form, the return form, and the datagrid
15. Then I save and compile...
(Also if your actually reading this I didn't remove the id form field, I get the same result either way, but if you do remove the form field in the code/design you also have to update the button function to not deal with the id before it gets sent off to the php page since in this case the MySQL table is set to auto_increment the id, sorry this doesn't make much sence but this little area doesn't matter much either way)
16. Now fill in whatever data you want for name and email, try differnt numbers in the id field like 0, nothing, 1, 1000 and click 'CreateCustomer'
(For me nothing happens, no return is put in the return field, no error pops up and the datagrid is not updated with the new record, also going over to phpMyAdmin and checking out the table browse doesn't show any changes either, I know the button is calling the function because if I add a state change in that function it changes, it would seem that the line:
createCustomerResult.token = customerService.createCustomer(customer2); doesn't do anything)
So any idea what is wrong here, I'm convenced it's something stupid easy simple I just can't see it.

In case you need more info, here is a code dump on a mxml project that has this problem:

Zend AMF Data Service Return Problem

Hi Folks,
I am working with FB4 and Zend AMF/PHP and MySQL. I began integrating the PHP stuff using the great article by Mihai Corlan called 'Working in Flash Builder 4 with Flex and PHP. I followed all the steps exactly, aside from creating my own app-specific PHP classes and functions, etc... I 'hooked up' the Zend stuff just like the article, created a text datagrid, just like the article, and viola!, it worked. I then tweaked it a bit and interwove it into my 'real' component. So far, so good.
Then I created a second PHP class with a different 'get data' type of function. It queries a different table in MySQL, but is essentially the 'same' as the query/function in the initial PHP class.
In FB, in the Data Services window, I choose the 'Connect to Data/Services' function, just like the first time. I then find/select my PHP class file and FB 'interrogates it' enough to show me the function that exists in the class. I 'finish' the operation and it adds a new 'service' to the list of services in that window. Again, so far, so good.
The problem comes when I try to 'test' the service or 'configure return types' (which basically requires a 'test' operation anyway). I can enter the 'input' params just fine, but when I try to execute the call, I get the following error:
InvocationTargetException:There was an error while invoking the operation. Check your operation inputs or server code and try invoking the operation again.
Reason: An error occured while reading response sent by server. Try encoding the response suitably before sending it. e.g. If a database column contains UTF-8 characters then use utf8_encode() to encode its value before returning it from the operation.
I don't know where to go after this. Again - the 2nd PHP class is essentially identical to the 1st. The function in it is essentially identical, differing only by the input params, the name of the function and the actual SQL it sends to MySQL. There is no special text, no special characters, no image stuff, nothing. I do not 'encode' the results of the function in the first class - in fact the code in the second class is practically identical to the first. I do not know what the error is talking about. My guess is that it's more of a generic message.
I can debug the PHP code just fine from within a seperate instance of Eclipse. The function runs/returns just fine - an array of PHP-defined objects (simple strings).
Any insights or advice would be welcomed.   Thank you,
-David Baron

Thank Jorge, but that was not the issue, though, it may be related.
I checked the mySQL my.ini file, and there was already an entry for:
[mysql]
default-character-set=utf8
I added the 'default-collation=utf8_unicode_ci', like you suggested, but that didn't do anything.
I checked the Apache httpd.conf file, and added the following line 'under' the "DefaultType text/plain" line:
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8    but that did not do anything.
I checked my mySQL database, all the tables involved. They were already at UTF-8 (default). However, some of the 'varchar' columns were defined as 'latin 1-default collation'.   I changed them all to utf-8 (default table collation), but that did not help either.
Finally, I found the problem, though I don't really know if it is "my" problem, or ZendAMF's problem, or Adobe's problem.
It turned out that 'some' of my data had a 'bad' character in it. Specifically, I had 'copied and pasted' some data from MS Word into mySQL Workbench. Some of the data included the 'elipsis' character - you know, when you type "..." (dot dot dot) in MS Word, it replaces the three periods with a single elipsis character. Although PHP could easily query and assemble this data into a nice object array, I noticed that that character showed up (in PHP's debugger) as a 'box' character, meaning "bad character". Thus, I guess, Zend AMF and/or FlashBuilder could not 'bring over' and/or deal with this type of character. As soon as I replace the few instances of that character with three periods, everything began to work perfectly.
So... what to do about this? I thought I was through with silly encoding/decoding of data when I left JavaScript and HTML behind in moving to FlashBuilder technology. Am I really going to have to worry about this kind of thing? Or might this be a bug/deficiency somewhere in the stack?
Thanks for your help,

Problem while calling a web service in BOBJ Data services

Hello Experts,
I am trying to call a web service in bobj data services. A real time job has been scheduled and published as a web service. I want to consume this service in web dynpro java.
I tried both the methods the adaptive web services and depricated version. I also tried calling the url directly and with the metadata and execution destinations.
No matter what I do, I keep getting the following error.
Exception on execution of web service with WSDL URL 'http://XXXXX:28080/DataServices/servlet/webservices?ver=2.0&wsdl' with operation 'SERVICE_<NAME>' in interface 'Real-time_Services'
The call never reaches data services system. If I try to call the service from soapUI (web service testing tool) it works fine.
I am using SAP NW 7.0 SP22 .
Here is my code in dynpro to call the service.
     AdaptiveModel mod = new AdaptiveModel();
     Request_SERVICE_MDM_LOOKUP request = new Request_SERVICE_MDM_LOOKUP(mod);
     Query1 query1 = new Query1(mod);
     Response_SERVICE_MDM_LOOKUP response = new Response_SERVICE_MDM_LOOKUP(mod);
     request.setQuery(query1);
     request.setResponse(response);
     List list = new ArrayList();
     DefinitionsTypes_XsdSchema_1__XsdElement_1__XsdComplexType_Sequence1 element = new DefinitionsTypes_XsdSchema_1__XsdElement_1__XsdComplexType_Sequence1(mod);
     element.setCustomer_Name(wdContext.currentContextElement().getCustomerName());
     element.setZip_Code(wdContext.currentContextElement().getZipcode());
     element.setAddr1("");
     element.setAddr2("");
     element.setCity("");
     element.setCountry("");
     element.setState("");
     list.add(element);
     query1.set$002fDefinitions$002fTypes$002fXsdSchema$005b1$005d$002fXsdElement$005b1$005d$002fXsdComplexType$0023Sequence1(list);
     wdContext.nodeRequest_SERVICE_MDM_LOOKUP().bind(request);
      wdContext.currentRequest_SERVICE_MDM_LOOKUPElement().modelObject().execute();
      wdContext.nodeResponse().invalidate();
      wdContext.nodeQueryResponse().invalidate();
      wdContext.nodeSequenceResponse().invalidate();
Please let me know if you have any pointers on how to solve this.
Thanks in advance
Praveen.

have you create the destination?
do you use the wizard to generate code?
usually there is catch clause for this line of code
wdContext.currentRequest_SERVICE_MDM_LOOKUPElement().modelObject().execute();

How to change the pricing date inthe conditon record access details

Hi Team,
Please help to solve this issue.
When we create a sales order, pricing date will update as creation date and the same date will appear in the condition records access details for all the respective condition type.
In case of sales order is created with reference to Contract then pricing date will update same as from the contract pricing date.
for examaple contract created on 01.01.2014 for the same day if we create the sales order with reference contract then pricng date will update as 01.01.2014 in the sales order.
If we create the sales order example today 19.05.2015 but stil pricing date will update as 01.01.2014 (due to same date available in the contract)
Now my requirment is for one of the condition type ex ZXXX this pricing date should update as sales order creation date (Not all the condition types) in the condition record access.
Please check and let me know ho to solve this issue.
Thanks in Advance.
MK.

Hi MK,
When we define a price condition in customizing, we have field Pricing date, with the following entries available:
‘ ‘   Standard (KOMK-PRSDT; tax and rebate KOMK-FBUDA)
A    Date of services rendered (KOMK-FBUDA)
B    Price date (KOMK-PRSDT)
C    Billing date (KOMK-FKDAT)
D    Creation date (KOMK-ERDAT)
E    Order date (KOMK-AUDAT)
Use E.
Regards,
JM

Pricing Conditions and how the pricing date is determined

Hi all,
Small question, i ahve some pricing conditions that use the Serives Rendered date and others that use the Pricing Date from an order, how is the condition decided on what date it uses?
Hope i have expplained this ok, if not and you need more info let me know.
Regards
Steve

Hi
There is a difference between Service Rendered Data and Pricing Date.
Normally Freight Conditions are maintained on Service Rendered Date so the freight will be picked on the basis of date on which the Actual Delivery done, whereas Pricing date is used for other conditions so that price will be based on the date on which the document created and the Pricing Date maintained in that.
In the same way there is a Billing Date which came in Invoice so price will be based on the date of Invoicing.
If you maintain the record in VK11 and test a cycle you will be able to find the difference easily.

Any help much appreciated

Further to the above post, I thought I'd simplify my Apex Listener install just to see if I can connect to it via SQL Developer
So downloaded the latest version 2.0.8 and decided to configure and run the Listener on my pc whilst still connecting to the same database.
Operating system : Window 7 Pro 64 bit
Oracle Apex Listener 2.0.8
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_25-b17)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.25-b01, mixed mode)
Went through the configuration as above, once started I tried again to access the listener via SQL Developer. This time I received this output from the listener:
INFO: Error: ORA-02291: integrity constraint (APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_RT$APPROVALS_SGID_FK) violated - parent key not found, occurred during execution of: [CALL, insert into wwv_flow_rt$approvals (user_name,status,client_id,security_group_id,created_by,created_on,updated_by,updated_on) values(/*in:user_id*/?,/*in:status*/?,/*in:client_id*/?,/*in:tenant_id*/?,upper(/*in:user_id*/?),/*in:created*/?,upper(/*in:user_id*/?),/*in:created*/?), [tenant_id, in, class java.math.BigInteger], [client_id, in, class java.math.BigInteger], [user_id, in, class java.lang.String], [status, in, class oracle.dbtools.rt.oauth.ApprovalRequest$Status], [created, in, class java.sql.Timestamp]]with values: [adminlistener, APPROVED, 3858401374580004, -1, adminlistener, 2014-06-23 12:19:18.785, adminlistener, 2014-06-23 12:19:18.785]

Data Services XI3.1 function module files for SAP R/3 is not working

Hi guys,
Thank you for the quick response so far. I am very grateful to you all.
I got an issue and will try to explain as detail as I could and
hope ur guys won't mind. :P
I pass the functions module to SAP tech guy to install to SAP using CTS
method, and using 900086.R63 file type because my chinese client is
running SAP on unicode environment.
My DS installed on my laptop client; job server plus db2 is on HP
unix. SAP is on another HP Unix server. The function module I used is
supplied from Data Services XI3.1.
Anyway, the installation is successfully done with GUI wizard windows of
SAP Workbench instead of tp command line method.
1)However, I checked the ZAW0 function group, I opened and can't see any functions
listed under it, although the table structures ZACTA, ZTAB2048 and other items
were created.
2)So I tried to create SAP Datastore, Transport Target, etc and tried to
extract file. It failed and log said "can't open file ---
/db2/temp/curcode.txt". I checked and SAP working directory /db2/temp didn't have
curcode.txt, because the result file supposed to be extracted and stored there.
The SAP tech guy checked SAP and cant find generated ABAP program of
ZCURCD is running anyway, although my local CURCD ABAP program is
created.
3)Is it the 900086.R63 not complete? Is my function installation correct? I could view data
on datastore, but just cant run job to extract. Another non-unidcode 900200.S08 group
has larger file sizes. Should I try to install also this 900200.S08 files? Will it corrupt SAP
and cause system errors?
4)After that, I had tried to install the functions manually into ZAW0
one by one using cut and paste, however after that, I cant view the data view anymore with
error. Besides, I tried to run Check on the functions and they all returned
syntax errors, so I cant Activate any of them with SAP. Maybe dependency is missing??
Then, I deleted the manually installed functions and can view data again, but just cant extract
data by job.
5)Another side issue is all these SAP datastore creation and viewing is
through DI 11.5 old installation. The new Data Services X3.1 unable to
create datastore with database error, although the function module
installed is came from Data Services. Does anyone know the issue?
Thank you very much to read it patiently. :P

Hi,
Thank you for the informative link. It did help a lot in solving the problem.
(1) to (4) --- The Sap tech guy didnt install the function programs correctly, and he redo the transport again using CTS. Now I can see all the functions inside the function group ZAW0. While for the problem of cannot generate extracted file to SAP working directory for downloading, it is due to unix directory access permission setting. And also have to include the ftp username into SAPSYS user group as the help link suggested.
(5) For this problem, I reinstalled again the DS with all required components like Server Manager. The network technical guy helped me with the first installation, and the installation was not complete. So now the issue is solved, I can create R/3 Datastore with DS.

CSR offers pricing/data service adjustment in response to my leaving inquiry; then another CSR denies availability of adjustment...hello?
