CTS+ scenario validation

Hi,
Is it possible to implement CTS+ for scenario:
Managing DC SolMan 701, linked with other two DCs -- R3 620 and XI 711. I want to enable STMS to use java stacks on satellite systems -- EP 700 (ABAP + JAVA) which is in domain with R3 620 DC, and XI 711 (ABAP + JAVA) which is also a DC, the same which I mentioned before.
Thanks for your replies.
Regards,
K

Hi,
I think your question has two apects
1. How to use CTS+ from one central Solution Manager for different Domains
2. Availability of CTS+
For 1: you could use domain links to connect different Domains into Solution manager. Some details are availbel in the [best practice guide on SDN |http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/10456aac-44f7-2a10-1fbe-8b7bcd7bcd58]in chapter 4 'Landcsape Scenarios'
For 2:
For the Domain Controller / Communication System: CTS+ is first availabe with SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SP 12 and we strongly recommend to start with SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SP 14 at least
for the Portal: SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SP 14 is recommended as well to have the full functionality of close coupling available.
So your Domain Controller on 6.20 is not able to support portal transports
Kind regards

Valid from and valid to properties under history preservation transform

I have created_dt and last_updated both date columns in source table and also in target table.
Now under history preservation transform for Date columns:
For "Valid from" and "valid to" properties: which column should i pick?
how can i use created_dt and last_updated columns under history preservation?
What is current flag property, should i leave this blank if i don't have any flag "bit type" column like indicator in source or target table.
My Dataflow has:
Source_table -> Qry_Transform -> Table_comparison > history_preservation - > Key_gen - > Target_table.

Valid from and Valid to in History Preservation transform deals with SCD (slowly changing dimensions).
In most of the scenarios, Valid From comes from the source (as Effective From date) for which the dimension has a particular value.
Eg:
SALES REP, Region, Effective From
A, California, 01.01.2011
Valid To column in History Preservation is the default value that you provide inside. In case of preserving history of an update, Valid To column of the old record can have the Valid From value of the new record, or one day before that. You have option to set the same in History Preservation.

SLD and CTS+

Hello,
We will be installing several remote Java-only MII systems soon. We have a central SLD at headquarters. We are planning to use CTS+ to move transports for these systems. The SLD Planning Guide, in section 3.2.1 indicates that SLD is used to define transport targets, at least for PI.
From reading the documentation, I suspect that for Java-only instances, transport routes are maintained in SLD. If SLD is not available, CTS+ for that system will not work.
Is this correct?
Best regards,
Russ

Essentially any CTS+ scenario using NWDI requires SLD
Also if you want to transport PI content an SLD is required
However having checked the documentation there maybe other CTS+ scenarios that do not involve NWDI or PI content
- in these cases SLD may not be required
Best wishes

SQL Server 2008 R2 Express with SP2: 'SQLEXPRESS'-instance installation fails while any other instance name installation succeeds.

We supply our software package that also includes the unattended installation (with /QS and so on) of SQL Server R2 Express (with SP2).
The setup works good in about 99.9% cases, but one customer complained that after the "successful SQL Sever installation (at least, it looked so!) he could not open the supplied database getting some strange error messages...
After some months of trial-n-error attempts we are now able to reproduce the problems this custumer had. But we cannot find the reason of the problem.
So the test computer is a virtual machine with Windows 7 + sp1 32-bit.
Among the programs/tools installed on this machine there were (in the following order):
SQL Server 2008 Express - the default SQLEXPRESS instance
SSMS
VS 2010 Pro (German)
SQL Server 2008 Express R2 (with SP 1 or SP2 - ?) - the default SQLEXPRESS instance
Then some of them were uninstalled in the following order:
SQL Server 2008 Express
SSMS
SQL Server 2008 Express R2
Now we tried to install (in normal mode with UI) the SQL Server 2008 Express R2 with SP2.
When we chose the default SQLEXPRESS instance - it failed with the following info:
Configuration status: Failed: see details below
Configuration error code: 0x7FCCE689
Configuration error description: External component has thrown an exception.
and the Detail.txt file contained the following:
2015-01-20 10:44:09 Slp: External component has thrown an exception.

When we chose some other instance name then the installation has completed successfully.
So the questions are:
What could be the reason of the problem (and only for SQLEXPRESS instance that was earlier installed and then uninstalled)? I will provide the complete Detail.txt file if needed.
How could we check (if we could) the conditions so some name would be allowed as an instance name for SQL Server installer to success?
With the best regards,
Victor
Victor Nijegorodov

Thank you Lydia!
Unfortunately the simple check the registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\Instance Names\SQL does /did not work in our case since there is no any instance
name there,
However there seem to be some "rudiments" under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall and/or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services.
So I will now try to check the subkeys of these two keys as it was mentioned by Xiao-Min Tan.

How do I know it's working?

Hello there,
Trying to do a NetInstall. Basic info of what I can see at the moment:
Server Admin- NetBoot has a gray circle next to it and says that NetBook Service is: Not available.
NFS is Green Light, DHCP is Red. Nothing listed in Logs or Clients.
The Machine being Net Installed- Startup - World Icon flashes - Apple logo with spining globe below it - turns to a spining wheel - Blue screen with the spining wheel.... has been like this for a 3+ hours.
Other then this spinning wheel and I don't know what it means, I've no idea what's going on there is no feed back at all?
Is it doing a net install?
Thanks inadvance.

Jeff is correct. The gray circle is your indication that it's not working... along with the Not Available text. There are various things that can cause this scenario. Searching this forum may of help. One thing that can cause this is if you've managed to get a bad index number in one of your NBImageInfo.plist files. For a single server scenario, valid indexes would be between 1 and 4095.

Transporting PI/XI object deletions beyond the first target system?

Hello,
we're running PI7.0 at the site I'm working at, and our PI transports are controlled via CMS.
I'm experiencing a problem in transporting Deletions of integration directory objects.
From Development to the first target Test system, the Deletions are moved through fine. This 'D' --> 'T 'transport forms the first track.
The second track moves the same transports from 'Q' (after being assembled and approved out of 'T') to 'I' and then to 'M' systems.
However, beyond the 'T' system, the Deletion objects seem to disappear off the transport!
Other items on the same transport (eg. object creations or changes), still get transported fine.
The outcome is that we seem to only be able to delete objects via transport in the first target system, not any follow-on systems.
Does anyone know what could be causing the problem?
many thanks
DaveR

Hi Marco,
For Java development, you will still use NWDI until the assembly step. The result will be a software component archive, which can then be moved over to CTS+.
For XI development, it is possible to use CTS+ instead of of CMS at the transport technology.
You also might want to take a look into the following document, which highlights the combination of CTS+ and NWDI:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a0d96022-9df5-2910-90b8-8e0580e0987e
Interesting quote:
"Usage type DI is by no means invalidated by this [CTS+] scenario: The NWDI is the recommended environment for JAVA-based development."
Best regards,
Dennis

WS Security digital certificate question

I have a BPEL process which I have secured using OWSM. I am using digital certificates which I have generated using the keytool command.
Say I have two clients A and B and both have their certificates and send the messages. The request contains a field called sender. A should specify this field as A, and B should specify this as B. How do I verify that A send the message in which the the sender is specified as A.
I want to validate against the digital certificate belongs to sender A. He does not fool me by providing the certificate of A but in the message sends the sender as B.
Is this scenario valid? If yes how to resolve if not why not?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Sash

this is not really a certificate issue. Its more of your application / process and where you want to handle this validation. (either at OWSM or else where).
When Sender A is digitally signing the message it is coming only from A (unless the private key / cert is stolen, etc). It A itself sends wrong value for sender field, they are not sending message as per your schema.
To answer your question, yes you can validate if the sender field matches with one of the fields in your cert such as Organization Name or you can map to your database. You have to write a custom step in OWSM to match the certificate information with the sender field.
Thanks
Ram

0CUST_SALES_LKDH_HIER Hierarchy load issue

Hello,
The Hierarchy load from the datasource 0CUST_SALES_LKDH_HIER to a time dependent InfoObject is failing with the below error:
Node [000073, 000075]: Leaf '006766765' already as child of node 000069.
I have checked in the KNVH table in R/3 and I found two entries for 006766765 with 'valid from' and 'valid to' dates as below:
Can some help me on this issue? Is this scenario valid?
Thanks,
Prateeksha Kalyani

With your client permission try to delete extra entry from source table.
About deletion you can check with ABAP Team with help of functional team.
Like in bw selective deletion at cube level, please check with abap team is there any option to delete selected entry from table?
if not then ask them(ABAP) to write a program to delete extra entry.
Even you can at try to check ABAP forum as well. you may get more possible options.

I need some help with the following. We have been using the WSUS 3.0 server on windows 2003 for a very long time. Now it is time to replace it with Windows 2012 R2 updates services, comming with the 2012 R2 server. We have a pretty straight forward environment
so i did not see the need to migrate databases etc. I simply replaced the existing WSUS serve rwith a new one with the same ip addresses etc. My idea was that the clients would register to the new server and then i could continue. However it looks like no
clients are Reporting to the new server at all. Nothing should need to be changed at the client side.
I have tested if i can the new WSUS server from the client and also if i can access it on port 80. Both is the case.
WSUS on W2012R2 will install on Port 8530 by default. Did you have set
up the Port in your GPO?

Xml validation in File to RFC Sync Scenario with Validation fails message

Hi All,
We are using PI 7.4 (Dual Stack) the Requirement is File to RFC Sync Scenario(File <---> RFC).and need to do XML validation against XSD Schema. if any Validations fails Response message should send back to sender.RequestResponseBean standard module is using for File to RFC Sync scenario but how to send the response message to sender if any validation fails. adapter level XML validation is not helpful for this requirement. please help out me how to achieve the requirement with graphical mapping.
Thanks in advance.

to validate schema you cannot solve it with graphical mapping but validating the schema in the AAE or the integration engine.
y recomend you to use the AAE validation at sender side, coz the sender system will be notified in case of schema errors.
The response will be validated at Integration Server level.
you can search in the forum, you will get many document about how to configure it.
take a look to my blog: PI 7.3 - XML Validation

Validation required in File to File scenario

Hi Experts,
I have developed a file to file scenario. PI picks up a .csv file from an FTP server and delivers this file to another FTP server without any conversions. It's a simple passthrough mapping.
I wish to implement a validation to check the content of a particular field in the file. I have used no mapping in this case and cannot write any UDF for this. Please let me know how can I implement validation in this scenario?
Thanks,

GLM: use scenario as validity area in label data view

Hi experts,
In the view label data of the material master I managed data for the labeling determination of GLM.
I understood that is possible to use scenario as validity area in this view in order to narrow the results of the label determination by scenario and packaging unit.
Could you detail me please how to proceed (custo + data + ...) to use this features?
Thanks and Regards,
/Ludo

Hello MIke,
Thank you for your reply. I followed your instructions then I maintened my scenario as validity area in label data but the system doesn't found label in GLM.
In activity "Specifiy Validity Area Categories", do I need to specify a table, a field and a validity area check function?
Here the log of GLM:
-Label category ZLB_REG2 filtered using validity area SCENARIO ("strange because I put "GENERIC" in label data as validity area)
-No gen. variant found for mat. 000000000000090026, packag. unit DR, and label cat. ZLB_REG2
If I delete the validity area "GENERIC" in label data, system found label.

CIN - J1ID TAX RATE MAINTAINED VALIDITY DATE (INDIAN SCENARIO)

IN INDIA TAX RATES CHANGE DURING EVERY YEARS BUDGET. EXCISE AND CUSTOMS DUTY CHANGE FROM MARCH WHEREAS SALES TAX CHANGES FROM APRIL. THIS TIME DUE TO RECESSION AND ELECTION THE EXCISE DUTY STRUCTURE WAS CHANGED THRICE FROM DEC 2008 TILL DATE. FROM 14 TO 10 AND NOW 8%. IN CIN DATA (J1ID) THE TAX RATES ARE ALSO TO BE MAINTAINED. NOW THE TAX RATE IS STORING DIFFERENT VALIDITY DATES. THIS AFFECTS THE POSTING OF MIRO AND MIGO. WHILE POSTING THE DOCUMENT IT CONSIDERS THE POSTING DATE AND APPLIES THE TAX RATE AS PER THAT DATE. YOU HAVE PENDING DOCUMENTS WHERE THE TAX RATE IS DIFFERENT THAN THE CURRENT DATE. IS THERE A SOLUTION SO THAT TAX RATES ARE CORRECTLY PICKED.

HI,
The condition type has nothing to do with the consignment settlement.The factor which influence for
consignment settlement thro MRKO is the price u have given in PIR,PB00 & the tax code which u have
entered in the PIR tax code tab.It is no way connected to the vendor master.So if the tax code is
changing for different time period ask them to change manually.

"Cleaning Validation Process Scenario" in SAP QM/PM for Pharma Industry

Dear Gurus,
I have a client requirement in the Pharma Industry. The scenario needs to be mapped in SAP for which I need your help.
The scenario is that the company is making medicines (tablets/capsules). Whenever, there is a changeover of the product, there are certain regulatory requirements which the client needs to adhere to.
For example, a shutdown of machinery for 10-12 days may be planned during which the machines are cleaned with soap/cleaning agents. Now, during this cleaning process, the QA department would take samples of the soap water recovered after cleaning process. These samples would be inspected for residues of the previous product that was being run on the line.
If everything is ok, then the approval is given by QA to start the next product.
This process has to be mapped in SAP, maybe in QM or PM.
I thought over the following process. Please let me know your inputs to fine tune the below process -
1. As the shutdown for changeover will be a planned one, we can create a Maintenance Plan in IP42.
2. Schedule the Mantenance Plan by IP10.
3. Release the maintenance plan in IP10.
4. Preventive Maintenance order will be created. (Also assign an Inspection Type in config to this maintenance order so that inspection lot also is triggered. The doubt here is that the inspection lot would be triggered for all preventive maintenance orders which may not be required. How to control this?)
5. Carry out Result Recording in QA32.
6. Confirm Preventive Maintenance order in IW41.
7. Carry out Usage Decision in QA32. The status of order will now become TECO.
8. Order Settlement in KO88.
9. Business Completion of Order in IW32
Thanks for you time!
Regards,
Nitin

Your ASIS Process
1. Cleaning is done by maintenance before change over
2. Inspection is done to ensure that cleaning is acceptable
3. Records of inspection are to be maintained
4. Information is to be sent to concern regarding quality testing and its status
5. Change over performed
You can MAP this by Notifications also. Follow the steps
1. Create a new notification type ( config)
2. Ensure you have following mapped in the action box (config)
    a. Send a mail
    b. Create a inspection lot
    c. Create a QM order
    d. Close Notification
The process will be as follows
1. Create a dummy material and activate insp type 08 in the QM set up.
2. PM creates the notification (t-code QM01) (New notification & triggers a mail (Action box) which is delivered to QC as information regarding the start of process .
3. QC on looking at the information creates the inspection lot through the notification (action box) the QTY specified in the notification is moved from unrestricted to Quality .
3. Perform RR & UD and post stock to unrestricted
4. Close the notification giving your remarks or set the notification for further processing if required .
Note :
1. The material is a dummy material
2. The intial stock can be one qty which is posted to quality -
from unrestricted and then again to unrestricted.
