Data element query

hi guys,
Is it possible to know that a particular Data Element is used in what all transactions?
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
Goto SEll tcode and enter DataElement name For example Enter MATNR in place of (.) DataType and select this radio button and click on 3rd button on the Application ToolBar i.e Where used list .
You will get a choice from where we need this list like TableFields,
struct fields,
View fields,
Interfaces.
Then select your list of choices and click on Exceute Button .From this list you can choose the needed one.

ORABPEL-77005 Uninitialized data element

Hi,
I created BPM process and I used BusinessRuleTask in it.
During testing I get:
Non Recoverable System Fault :
<bpelFault><faultType>0</faultType><subLanguageExecutionFault xmlns="http://schemas.oracle.com/bpel/extension"><part name="summary"><summary>XPath expression failed to execute. An error occurs while processing the XPath expression; the expression is bpmn:getDataOutput('ruleOutput'). The XPath expression failed to execute; the reason was: ORABPEL-77005 Uninitialized data element. DataOutput ruleOutput is not initialized in flow element BusinessRuleTask. Make sure to initialize DataOutput ruleOutput before using it in flow element BusinessRuleTask. Contact oracle support to resolve the issue. . Check the detailed root cause described in the exception message text and verify that the XPath query is correct. </summary></part><part name="code"><code>XPathExecutionError</code></part></subLanguageExecutionFault></bpelFault>
Before BusinessRuleTask step I initialized ruleOutput, but the result is the same..
have you any idea what's wrong?

Sharing another scenario as it might help others.
Instead of "DataOutput [variable] is not initialized" I encountered
Uninitialized data element.
DataInput execData is not initialized in flow element [task name]
Make sure to initialize DataInput execData before using it in flow element [process name]
The issue was in the log-handler (Before Output association) of the human-task, I logged the task execData (which is a system variable that gets populated with task execution data).
ora:getContentAsString(bpmn:getDataOutput('execData'))
The problem was resolved after I removed the above statement from the log handler.

BexGetData over data elements that are not drilled down

Hi,
I create a query in the query designer open the same in the analyzer. I perform navigations on the same and convert the worksheet to formula.
Now the BexGetData formula contains references only to the items that have been drilled down in the rows or columns. Is it possible to reference the data elements in the free characteristics section (which have not been drilled down in the workbook before i convert to formula).
Basically I am trying to avoid having to retrieve a large amount of information if I need to build a formula based on many data elements.
Thanks
Shailesh

Well you cannot as the BexGetData works with the Analysis grid and its cells which are displayed in the result areas (rows and columns) and doesnt refer to Free chars
PS-
To avoid formula errors being displayed when you open the workbook in formula mode, configure the data provider for the analysis grid such that the results are displayed offline. This allows you to display the data in your result set without the need to connect to the server.

Working with Spry Data Elements

As I understand it, I have to format elements such as dates,
currency, etc. myself. Can someone can tell me how to manipulate
the data elements in Spry (JS/DOM/?). I don't (necessarily) need
date and currency examples, just something simple to get me
started.
For instance, I would like to alter the way {currency} and
{date} appear below:
<tr spry:repeat="dsList">
<td>{currency}</td>
<td>{date}</td>
</tr>
Currently, this is pretty ugly...
<tr spry:repeat="dsList">
<td>2006-10-02 10:18:35.983</td>
<td>16500000.0000</td>
</tr>
Any JS example will help me... for instance, the code adding
one (+1) to the currency value would get me through this;)
Not vital to this question, but this is a cfquery that's
using Raymond Camden's toXML component (which rocks) to convert my
queries to XML variables for Spry.
many thanks...

Nevermind... I figured it out.
I simply added the following code in between the query object
and the conversion to xml:
<cfif len(myQuery.date)>
<cfoutput query="myQuery">
<cfset query.date=DateFormat(query.date,"mm/dd/yyyy")/>
</cfoutput>
</cfif>

Problem in data element

hi experts,
i am developing a report to display details of equipment number(transaction ie03).
in that to get the partner function details (parvw ' vw ' person responsible)
we have partner (PARNR I_PARNR CHAR 12 0 Partner) and name of that person. so based on parnr we get details from table pa0001 .
here we have PERNR (PERNR PERSNO NUMC 8 0 Personnel number)
(here pernr is equivalent to parnr of ihpa but data elements differ) so we get the details that is ename(employee name ).
but when i write select query i get the following error
select objnr parvw parnr
from ihpa
into table it_ihpa
for all entries in it_itab
where objnr = it_itab-objnr
and parvw = c_vw.
select pernr ename
from pa0001
into table it_pa01
for all entries in it_ihpa
where pernr = it_ihpa-parnr.
error : when using the addition "for all entries in itab",
the field pernr and it_ihpa-parnr must have same type and length.

Hi,
The field PERNR and PARNR are different.So u can't directly write in the where condition.Try like this as given jayanti
if not it_ihpa[] is initial.
select pernr ename
from pa0001
into table it_pa01
for all entries in it_ihpa
where pernr = it_ihpa-parnr+4(8).
endif.

Data element of a field

Hello All,
How can i get the data element of a field at run time or field name at the run time?
i hav come accross tables DD04L and DD03L, but for this i should know the field name also, but i do not know the way to take out the field name of a table at the run time.

I guess u can acheive it using DD03L itself.
select the contents of DD03L using the table name(for eg: ZCTABLE), check if the
field name is ZSTAMP, if so, get the ROLLNAME (or the data element).
and if the dataelement is TIMESTAMP, change it.
DOMNAME filed gives u the domain name.
do a loop on the ROLLNAME field and check for 'TIMESTAMP'
a simple query on DD03L will do this.

How to find Where does Data Elements and structures are used ?

Hi everyone .
Is there any table which stores data elements/structures and where they are used ?
If not is there any way to find by writing some <b>program</b> where does a data element or a structure is used ? Which tables will require for that ? If any one can give example it will be most helpful .
Thanks and Regards,
Kaushal N. Shah

Hi Kaushal,
DD04L stores the data elements.
DD02L stores the structures.
So you can query these tables & find them.

Releation between fields and data element

Dear Abapers,
What is the relation between the fields and data element, while cretion of fields system will ask the data element, can we have one data element to more than one fields. Can you plese explain me.
Regards

Hi,
data elements are structures defined in SAP Dictionary.
Fields you meen in a table? or in programs? in both places you create in reference to SAP Dictionary.
data element char20. TEXT20
Programs data: l_text type char20.
Tables ... field ZTEXT type CHAR20...TEXT20

Adding data element to segment in we31 in ECC 6.0

hi all,
I have added field name ( data element ) to segment in we31 in 4.6 C by going Edit u2013> cancel release, then F6 to goto change mode to add our field.
Now I have to add the same field ( data element ) to segment While adding it is giving system error as " Error while resetting the release of segment ZE1XXXXXX_01"
Kindly let me know what to do ?
Thanks in advance

Problem solved with the help of my collegue.
It is just using "Segment --> Add version".
As the old version is already released so we can
"Edit --> Cancel release".
Thanks,

Adding new data elements to Org Modeler.

We are trying to add 4 fields to the org Modeler. However it is nowhere to be found like in the orgchart.
Org Modeler 3.0 SP2
PA0001, PA0008, HRP1005 and HRP1008. (also linking to the texts in T001P, so we will require a table inner join)

Hi Wade,
In order to get the fields in OrgModeler scenarios you need to make sure that your hierarchy data element in the Source OrgChart contains all fields that you want. For this I recommend creating a NakisaRFC function for the additional data, creating a data element for it and then creating a linked data element to link together the new data element and the existing hierarchy data element. There is no data center in OrgModeler so you will need to do this manually.
Best regards,

What is domain and dataelement.....diff b/w domain and data element

dear all
what is domain?
what is data element?
In one domain how many data elements are possible to used?
with out data element how can u create a table? explain briefly.

To clarify it little further the Data element and Domains are used in combination where similiar type of data fields are to be used with some more additional characteristics to each Data element.
For example consider creating a table which contains Employee details. The Columns Name1 and Name2 are to be of type char and length 40. There are 2 ways to do this,
1. You can assign the fields Name1 and Name2 directly to CHAR40(as the data element) in SE11. But this will make both the fields to have same characteristics with no difference among them.
2. The other way is to assign the columns Name1 and Name2 to seperate Data elements say DE_NAME1 and DE_NAME2. This method has tha advantage of adding further charectristics and labels to the data element. Hence in this case you can add a label "Name1" for the data element DE_NAME1 and "Name2" for data element DE_NAME2. And both these data element will point to the same domain CHAR40, hence length and type is same.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Doubt in data element creation

Hi,
I have doubt in data element creation ie, there is 2 options elementary type
(domain and built-in-type) and reference type (name of the reference type &
ref to predefined type). if there is built in type here then what is the use of
built-in-type in initial screen of the table and also explain me about the use of
reference type.
with regards,
nanjunda sharma

Hi!
With the use of the built-in type, you have to set always in every different data element the exact type.
With the use of the domains (pre-defined types) you just have to enter the domain name into the data element. If you have to modify the type, you can maintain it in the domain (only once) but the built in types have to modifyed in every data element (which means more work).
Domains have a little more options also, than the built in types.

How to make BI Info obj Data element in-herit source DE documntn?

Say I am in ECC. I go to SE11, give table name MARA and then doubleclick on the dataelement 'MATNR'. Then I click on documentation. I get a popup with Short text " Material Number" and Definition "Alphanumeric key uniquely identifying the material'.
I am interested in the latter information that is 'Definition' - & in general whatever documentation comes up for data element in ECC.CRM.SCM,SRM.
Now I log into SAP BI. I find that under characteristic 0Material, the data element is /BI0/oimaterial. When I double-click this datamaterial and press the documentation button, the system says 'No documentation'.
My Questions:
1. IS there a switch we could turn on in source ECC/SRM/CRM/SRM so that the data element in SAP BI inherits the original source field data element documentation.
{ I am not too convinced of the argument- that in BI we have info objects in ECC we have fields - since I am talking of data element level information- I would tend to think of this as an oversight of the designers or de-prioritization !!}.
2. Could we have an ABAP workaround? That is, in BI we identify the tables that house the mapping between the source and destination data elementsa and take out this information. Then we extract the dataelement documentation by function DOCU_GET (from eCC) and use the mapping info above to link SAP BI data element with source data element documentation.
WHY do I want to punish myself as above? My use case is, we take out SAP BI Table, field, metadata etc and create a model in a modeling tool and physical implementation in a 3rd party DW database as our own canonical, application-agnostic corporate datawarehouse. I would want the source data element documentation to flow to this last system as well as the modeling tool.

Sasanka

That is, in BI we identify the tables that house the mapping between the source and destination data elementsa and take out this information. Then we extract the dataelement documentation by function DOCU_GET (from eCC) and use the mapping info above to link SAP BI data element with source data element documentation.
1) SAP don't supply this, I would imagine, because R/3 isn't the only possible source of data. I'm currently working on an app that extracts from R/3, an Oracle database and APO. From whence should I take the documentation for my MATERIAL info object? While being able to transfer the documentation of data elements might be very useful for your app, I can't see that generally it would be of interest to clients - I've certainly never heard of such a requirement. So, my opinion at least, it isn't a design flaw.
2) As you've pointed out, you can get the tables that do the mapping, so you know the source data elements, so you can get the documentation. I'm not sure of how to store the documentation, but the obvious candidate for a link between infoobject and dataelement would be master data of an own infoobject. You could wrap DOCU_GET in an RFC (if it isn't RFC enabled), and do a direct call between your 3rd party app and r/3 to get the documentation. For information about the mapping tables, I'd suggest asking that question specifically in one of the BI forums.

URL link in data element documentation

Is it possible to create a url link within the documentation of a data element to allow the user to launch the web browser and navigate directly to a specified webpage?
Regards
Mark Briggs

Hello,
I am not sure but you can try this out. Go to se38 and documentation for a test program. Click on Goto and then Change editor. write a text that you want to give a link to. Make its paragraph format as SAPfind Reference. Select the text goto insert link. It will pop you up with a box. give the name of your program but how to link it is another mystery.
Try these function modules.
IWB_HTML_HELP_OBJECT_SHOW
IWB_HTML_HELP_EXTENDED_HELP
and see this program BCALV_GRID_F4_HELP may be of some help.
