Custom Datetrack Table and APIs

Hi All
I want to create a custom datetrack table and an API supporting that table, just like hr_all_positions_f. I think there is an API pr script available in Oracle to create a template package that supports datetrack operations for a package and that will have pre-insert, post_insert procedures as well.
If there is any metalink note please post it here.
thanks
gaurav

Is your requirement to create APIs that are datetrack aware on custom tables using a standard template defined by Oracle ? If so, I do not believe there is such a template available. We have created custom datetrack tables and APIs in our install - these were coded by our development team based on requirements defined by the functional team.

Thanks,
Lisa

I can give you a 30,000 foot answer, but to get down to ground level I would have to know your system. There is way to much missing information in your request to give you a definite answer.
Employee Number - if you are using LDB PNP/PNPCE to run your report then it is the field PERNR-PERNR.
Name - IT/PA0002-NACHN -Last Name, IT/PA0002-VORNA-First Name.IT/PA002-MIDNM-Middle Name. Depending on your system configuration these fields are also stored on IT/AP0001-SNAME (Last Name-FirstName) or ENAME(First Name, Middle Name, Last Name)
Original Hire Date-IT/PA0041-This stores multiple date types with a specific code to identify what each one is. You will need to know the code for OHD.
Adjusted Hire Date - same as above
Salary Class- not sure what you are talking about, but salary information is stored on IT/PA008
Empl Status - IT/PA000-Stat2
Classification-not sure what field you are talking about, but IT/PA0001 is where this type of information is stored
Accounting Unit-same as above
Activity(WBS)- now you are getting complicated. This is stored in Cost Distribution HRT1019-POSNR, but you have to know how to connect the dots to get there.
Accrual Beginning Balance(Hours)-I would go to the ABWKONTI table in the Time Cluster for this fields ANZHL & KVERB
Accrual Beginning Balance(Dollars) - this will probably have to be computed
Used(Hours)-You can either compute this balance by computing the difference between the Beginning/Ending balances or read back through the appropriate Time Cluster Tables or total IT/PA2001 and IT/PA2013.
Used(dollars) will probably have to be computed
Other/Manual Adjustments(Hours) - not sure but you may be looking at IT/PA2013
Other/Manual Adjustments(Dollars)- will have to be computed
Accrual Ending Balance(Hours)-I would go to the ABWKONTI table in the Time Cluster for this fields ANZHL & KVERB
Accrual Ending Balance(Dollars) - this will probably have to be computed
Vested Status - I have no idea
Plan Code-Plan Code for what(Health Ins, Life Ins, Retirement Plans, Flexible Spending?)
Plan/Description-see above

Problem in creating a Generic Extractor on a custom 'Z' table

This is regarding an earlier question I posted in sdn today. I am trying to create a generic extractor on a custom 'Z' table and iam getting the following message.
Invalid extract structure template YBW_Z3PVR of DataSource YCNA_3PVAR_RPT
Message no. R8359
Diagnosis
You tried to generate an extract structure with the template structure Z3PVR. This operation failed, because the template structure quantity fields or currency fields, for example, field MENGE refer to a different table.
Procedure
Use the template structure to create a view or DDIC structure that does not contain the inadmissable fields.
Please advise. how do i solve this?

Hi there,
Is your Z* table working? It must be add check field for quantity field and currency field.
Hope this helps.

How to populate DUNS_NUMBER in AR through Customer Interface tables

Hi,
We are working on Customer Interface using custome Interface tables and run the standard Customer Interface program.
As part of source data, we have data for D-U-N-S number, which should be populated to D-U-N-S number field displayed under Profiles Tab in Customer screen.
I believe that field refers to DUNS_NUMBER_C or DUNS_NUMBER in HZ_ORGANIZATION_PROFILES base table.
My question is what is the column(field) in Interface table to be populated which maps to the D-U-N-S number on the screen said above. ?
Appreciate your quick response.

FBCJ Profit Center Field mapping with customized z-table

Hi Techies,
Requirement is that: in FBCJ t-code, the field profit Center will be connected with customized z-table, and while user will input except values of customized table, system will generate error message.

Hi Krishna,
This check can be achieved by creating validation using T.Code GGB0. How this can be done can be got from the following links.

Custom PL/SQL API that inserts the data into a custom interface table.

We are developing a custom Web ADI integrator for importing suppliers into Oracle.
The Web ADI interface is a custom PL/SQL API that inserts the data into a custom interface table. We have defined the content, uploader and an importer. The importer is again a custom PL/SQL API that will process the records inserted into the custom table and updates the STATUS column of the custom interface table. We want to show the status column back on the spreadsheet.
Defined the 'Document Row' import rule and added the rows that would identify the unique record.
Errored row import rule, we are using a SELECT * from custom_table where status<>'Success' and vendor_name=$param$.vendor_name
The source of this parameter is import.vendor_name
We have also defined an Error lookup.
After the above setup is completed, we invoke the create document and click on Oracle->Upload.
The records are getting imported, but the importer program is failing with An error has occurred while running an API import. The ERRORED_ROWS step 20003:ER_500141, parameter number 1 must contain the value BIND in attribute 1.'

The same issue.
Need help.
Also checked bne.log, no additional information.

Which one to use - Customer Interface or TCA APIs? And why?

Hi,
Please let me know the answer for the following questions. I have a legacy system in 11.0.3 (which does not have the TCA architecture) and the customers have to be moved to R12. I could get the details in different flat files for the import from source system. Which is the approach I should use?
1) What does customer interface does NOT do which the TCA APIs can do?
2) Doesn’t the customer interface use the TCA API within it?
3) Is it better to use APIs than customer interface? If so, why and what are the criterions I should look for for deciding on what to use?
Highly appreciate the help.
Thanks,
Dinesh

Hello Dinesh,
To answer your questions below:

1) What does customer interface does NOT do which the TCA APIs can do?The Customer Interface tables do the same things that TCA API does.
user3331828 wrote:
2) Doesn’t the customer interface use the TCA API within it?I have never been able to open a Spawned program to see which packages are used. Not sure if it uses the same API packages.
user3331828 wrote:

For customer interface, just right a program to validate the source data and insert into open interface table, submit the import program and view output for errors. Much easy to maintain than API.
API need a certain level of programming and you will need to investigate for all the flow of creating a customer and their corresponding create procedure to call..
Hope this help,

Sanju

Hi Sanjana,
What you can do is to use the ABAP keyword INSERT or MODIFY to add or modify records to a given database table. Here are the syntax taken from SAP documentation:
*Insert Statement
INSERT dbtab
Syntax
INSERT { {INTO target VALUES source }
| { target FROM source } }.
Effect
The INSERT statement inserts one or more rows specified in source in the database table specified in target. The two variants with INTO and VALUES or without INTO with FROM behave identically, with the exception that you cannot specify any internal tables in source after VALUES.
System Fields
The INSERT statement sets the values of the system fields sy-subrc and sy-dbcnt.
sy-subrc Meaning
0 At least one row was inserted.
4 At least one row could not be inserted, because the database table already contains a row with the same primary key or a unique secondary index.
The INSERT statement sets sy-dbcnt to the number of rows inserted.
Note
The inserted rows are finally included in the table in the next database commit. Up until this point, they can still be removed by a database rollback.
*Modify Statement
MODIFY dbtab
Syntax
MODIFY target FROM source.
Effect
The MODIFY statement inserts one or several lines specified in source in the database table specified in target, or overwrites existing lines.
System fields
The MODIFY statement sets the values of the sy-subrc and sy-dbcnt system fields.
sy-subrc Meaning
0 At least one line is inserted or changed.
4 At least one line could not be processed since there is already a line with the same unique name secondary index in the database table.
The MODIFY statement sets sy-dbcnt to the number of processed lines.
Note
The changes are transferred finally to the database table with the next database commit. Up to that point, they can be reversed using a database rollback.
Hope it helps...
P.S. Please award points if it helps...

subba

Hi Subbu,
Schedule the program as a background job in transaction SM36 ---> Define Background Job
In SM36 you can find push button Start condition in that u have Date/Time Push button click on it. Specify the date and time when you want to schedule the program to run.
Now below you can find a push button Period values click on it here you get another pop up Period values.
As you want to schedule for every 3 to 4 minutes click on Other period push button.
Here you get another pop up Explicit period values now specify the time minutes field as per your requirment and click on OK.

Diff between custom table and cutomized table

hi,
can any one let me know the terms custom table and customized table is same or is there any difference in between these two.
in case of any difference please let me know.
regards

hi,
Customizing table is
a very SPECIAL MASTER TABLE
where VERY IMPORTANT RECORDS
are maintained.
2. Such records, affect calculations / flow / logic etc .
3. Important thing about customizing table,
is that it will ask for REQUEST NUMBER,
whenever we try to add / modify any record in it.

Creating Customized Table and Modify Table Maintenance Screen

Hi,
I have already created customized table and generate the table maintenance screen, however i encountered 1 problem which is i cannot add new PAI and PBO module in the flow logic. Every time i wanna add new module, i will be getting error message saying that my user currently editing the screen. Any suggestion ?
Thanks.
Jon

Hi <b>Jonathan</b>,
Please close all the windows and relogin
For making PAI and PBO modules, Please activate all the Table and its maintainence view.
Now first make emptu file with <main filename>_PAI and <main filename>_PBO save and activate them.
Now put the logic in them and then activate now call these in the main prog.. it should work...
While activation all the sub program modules should be activated already... i suggest select all the prog and sub progs and activate them all at once...so the system automatically takes care of inner activations first...
If u have some more quereies... please feel free to contact me...
Regards,,
