Data Validation Before Upload to BPC

Hi All,
We pump in trial balance data from our SAP system to BPC with some breakdown to match dimension combination in BPC. One of the required steps is that to have a checking procedure to see whether downloaded data is balanced or not, before we upload to BPC.
Would you mind sharing with me how best to have this checking, or if you have some experience on how this validation works in your company, i would appreciate it very much if you can share it.
Thanks a lot,
Liam

Hi Nilanjan,
Thanks for replying.
If we use Business Rule function, then we would have to upload it to BPC first and let Business Rule run the validation.
Our objective is to make sure the figures in the flat file is correct (balance in accounting view), before we submit to BPC.
Thanks,
Liam

Can we apply custom validation before uploading data in WebADI in 12.1.3

Hi,
I have requirement of applying custom validation before uploading data from spreadsheet using webADI. How can we do that.
Is there any way in desktop Integration Manager Responsibilty in WebADI.
I have just started exploring webADI
Please Help Me...
Thanks,
Suhani

Why are you posting this in OAF?
Anyway you can by creating a custom PL/SQL wrapper that is called by the WebADI.
Raise an application ERROR in your wrapper and it will show in the WebADI
If you just want to validated VALUES, you are better of creating an LOV on the Column. Then WebADI will do the validation work for you.

Content validation before uploading file

Hi,
We want to do some validations before uploading an excel file to OBIEE :
1 - check the file extension
2 - do some data validation on the content of the excel file.
I succed in doing the first step by adding some javascript customization to OBIEE javascript files. However, i cant do the second step with javascript, because i need to read the excel file content and make connection to a database to perform the validation.
Is there any way, to do the validation in server side so that i can read the excel file and make the database connection with a java code.
Thanks.

Hi,
Actualy, users produces some informations about production. These informations are in excel files because there is no application for this business area. Also they want, throw OBIEE 11g portal, to upload their files them selves, have a validation workflow of the file in obiee, and then automatically copy excel files content in a oracle tables and create some reports on these tables.
I dont know if these needs are possible in the obiee 11g platform, so i start doing a prototype. Now, i'am in the first step of uploading the excel file into a folder in the obiee catalog. However during the upload a file a need to do some technical validations (null values, numeric values, ...) and check if the value of a specific column exists in a table on an other database.
Therefor, the xls file is not a variable it's uploaded every time a user wants it. The production environnement of obiee 11g is AIX, however for the prototype, i will user an environnement on windows.
Thanks.

Date validation before submission

I have a form that requires the user to enter a date. It is a
required
field, but now they are asking for some additional
validation. Im using
Access, DWMX and ASP.
What i need is some sort of validation that the date that is
entered into
the field is no more than 7 days from todays date....if it is
less than or
7days then it will allow them to submit the form. If they put
in a date that
is Past 7days from todays date then it will not allow them to
submit the
form...
can this be done? if so can someone point me in the right
direction on
finding out how to accomplish.

I looked up the VBScript functions... and found this...
DATEADD( ) which may help me in my situation
Since im not familiar with this, can someone point me in the
right direction
on how i may be able to use this?
By the looks of the examples provided i may be able to use
this
NewDate = DateAdd("d", -7, date() ) This should return the
date 7 days ago
Is there a way to use this within the form validation to
validate a date,
before submission?

Help: Data validation before commit or move to next record

The form that I am working on allows data insert. It needs to have a feature to inform the end user for incomplete field(s) before commit_form or move to next record for updating. Please let me know how you would do it.
Thank you,
Jimmy

To prevent cursor movement out of a field in a When-validate trigger, all you do is Raise Form_trigger_failure;However, if the field is null and the user does not enter anything while tabbing through, or just clicking in then clicking somewhere else, the When-validate-item trigger does not run. You have to specifically check if the field is null in the When-validate-record trigger.

How to do data validation before the submit by email

I am developing an offline interactive form. There is submit button inside, which should check all data and submit the form by email if checking passes.
My problem is that I can not cancel the submit event when the checking failed.
I use Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.1.3284.
If I use Email Submit Button, I can do validation in presubmit event. But I can not cancel the event. Even there is error in validation, form is submitted anyway.
If I use normal button, I can do validation in Click event. But I can not submit form with code.
Is there anyone who has experience on this issue?
Best Regards,
Jun

in that case, you can code just one line in the change event of all fields of the form
xfa.form.form1.....button_validation.presence = "visible"
xfa.form.form1.....button_submit_by_email.presence = "hidden"
After click of validate button,
if validation is successful,
xfa.form.form1.....button_validation.presence = "hidden"
xfa.form.form1.....button_submit_by_email.presence = "visible"

Help: data validation before save or after execute query

Hi,
The issue that I have are:
1. A form allows user to insert and save records. When user press the save button, Instead of have an oracle error message: "FRM-40508: ORACLE error: unable to INSERT record," I'd like there be some step taken to send an alert to user if the user does not enter the date meets the fields constraint(s).
2. Same for the execute query button, when there are no records return from the query.
Thank you.

Date Validation - End date before Start date

This may be a very simple validation but I seem to be having trouble. I've got a form which requires a date range to be selected (Date Picker fields)...a Start date, and an End date.
I've created a Function Returning Boolean validation with the code as:
begin
if :P1_END_DATE < :P1_START_DATE then
return false;
else
return true;
end if;
end;This works 99%, except when the date range spans years.
For example, when I select '21-Dec-2010' in the start date and '4-Jan-2011' in the end date. The validation fails, and thinks the end date is before the start date.
Do I need to compare the year part of the date, before doing the rest? Or is the '<' not suited for this sort of check?

Sorry, false alarm, it looks like I had my logic a little backwards :)

Data Validation in IP before saving

Dear All,
              I need to do data validation in IP layout, before data gets saved into cube. For example, i have percentage key figures to plan, which should sum up to 100. if it is not, on clicking on save button, user should get proper error message.
               Is there any ready made planning function available which does this simple data validation? else, please suggest any other approach to achieve this.
Thanks,
Harpal

Hi Harpal,
Create a Custom Planning function to check the Percentage and return the expected message.
for reference : look at class : CL_RSPLFC_CREATE_CR
it should use syntax :
      if sy-subrc <> 0.
        message enum(messageclass ) with x.
      endif.
Please let me know if you need further help.

List Data Validation failed error

I'm getting the following error "List data validation failed." while trying to upload a document which already exists.
My Document library settings : Enabled Version Settings (Major),
Require documents to be checked out before they can be edited : YES,
Validation Formula : =[End Date]>=TODAY()
If I upload a new document to the document library, everything is
working fine. If I edit properties of the ListItem everything works fine. The system throws error only when I upload already existing document.
If i make "Require documents to be checked out before they can be edited : NO" , then everything is fine. But business requirement forces me to do checkout.
Also if i change the Validation Formula : =[End Date]<=TODAY() , then everything works fine.

Hey Jatin,
unfortunately the check out before editing = true is against using the same document before overwrite.
as long as this is a business needs, i advise you to make a user control to be your document library upload form
while uploading the document, you can check this document out programmatically and the library settings will do the overwrite for you
also the validation will be easier when you check it programmatically
i hope this help, let me know if you need more clarifications

Data is not uploaded from the dso to the cube

Dear Experts,
In one of my process chains the data is not uploaded from the dso to the cube .
I have tried to upload the data month wise also but still after certain data records the data gets stuck up.
I have recreated the indexes also.
When I am checking in DB02 the table space is shown as 18491 MB.The used space is 97%.
Please suggest.

Hi.....
I didn't get your point........what have you mention that you have recreated the index before loading....
Basically.the process should be........Delete index --> Load --> Create index......
You have mentioned that 97% of the memory space is in use........please check with the basis team once......
Also, in SM37 check if any such job is there which is running for a long time but not progressing......or which you think you don't need......then kill that job......

Data Source to upload plan data for CO_OM_CCA_: CC: Costs and Allocations

Hi Guru's,
We have Data source that which upload Actual data for CCA (0CO_OM_CCA_1 - Cost Centers:cost and allocations). Every time it is full upload before loading the data deletion of previous load request will be done.
One more information required that i have checked in the BW cube for plan data it is available in the info cube for one cost center and rest of the costcenter i don't have the data now the users are requesting to upload the plan data for rest of cost centers.
Now as per the business requirement the users are requesting to upload the plan data in to the same i am not sure whether it will pull the plan data with actuals in to BW cube. Is there any alternate with the same data source or else is there any specific data source for uploading Costs and Allocations plan data
Please suggest me how can i go a head with this requirement.
Thanks in Advance.
Ganni

You can use the same datasource to load plan/budget data to the cube for all the costcenters. And regarding the actuals, you can use 0CO_OM_CCA_9 datasource to load to actuals cube and create a multi on top of both plan and actuals cube for reporting purposes.

Excise Invoice Cancellation on Date validation only

Hi Experts,
i am having critical requirement from Business, which is not available in SAP Standard, So i need help from you guys...
Excise invoice can be cancelled on the same day of system/posting date. but when the system date and posting dates are not matching it should through error..
Example : i created Excise invoice on 17th june,2011 this is posting date of excise invoice, if i try to cancell on 17th june , it should allow.
                    but when i try to cancell the excise invoice on 18th june (system date) , it should not allow to cancell and it say Error !!!
i heard there will be possible through User Exit OR Function Module OR Routins ... Please help me
Thanks and Regards
Madhu

Dear Madhusudhanan,
Following are the list of User Exits available for J1IIN
J_1I7_USEREXIT_EXCISE_BEF_SAVE User exit after the excise header and details are written and they can changed in J1IS , J1IIN and Automatic creation of Excise Invoice.
J_1I7_USEREXIT_EXINV_ADDL_DATA User exit for Excise Invoice Additional Data    in J1IS and J1IG
J_1I7_USEREXIT_J1I5_MATFORM    User exit for J1I5 material form changes
J_1I7_USEREXIT_J1I5_VALIDATE   User exit for subsequent J1I5 data validation
J_1I7_USEREXIT_J1IEX_BEF_SAVE User exit for J1IEX before the data is saved
J_1I7_USEREXIT_J1IEX_CHANGE    User exit for changing data before display
J_1I7_USEREXIT_J1IS_BASE_VALUE User exit to Change base value in J1IS
I strongly believe that the first exit will serve the purpose.
Now if you are cancelling it using J1IH, Check the following thread.
J1IH-User Exit

Use PL/SQL procedure to guard against malformed CSV files before upload

Hi all,
In my CSV upload utility, I've implemented error checking procedures, but they are invoked only AFTER data has been uploaded to temp table. This doesn't catch the following sample scenarios:
1. The CSV is malformed, with some rows shifted due to fields and separators missing here and there.
2. User has chosen a wrong CSV to upload (most likely number of fields mismatch)
I'm wondering if it is a good idea to have procedure to read in the CSV, scan each line, count the number of fields (null fields but with delimiters showing the field exist is ok) for each record. If every single record matches the required number of fields for that table, then the CSV is ok, and the insert from external table to temp table is allow. This will ensure at least the CSV file has a valid matrix size for the target table, but rest of error checking is left until after temp table is populated.
One of my concerns is, I specify "missing field values are null" in the external table parameters, which is necessary since not all fields are required. Does this specification causes a row with missing trailing separators still considered valid? If so then the stored procedure must be programmed to omit such a case.
What do you think? Many thanks.

Hi, Cuauhtemoc Amox
Thank you for your advice. I have set web adi using PL SQL interface.
I have decided to go futher
i have a procedure like that
procedure delete_old_data ( p_id in number, p_description in varchar2)
as
begin
               begin
               if g_flag ='N' then
               delete from xx_test;
                g_flag='Y';
                else null;
                end if;
                end;
insert into xx_test (p_id,p_descriptiom);
end;
G_FLAG is a global variable with default value ='N' in my package. When web_adi upload
first row from excel sheet, then procedure delete all data from table and change g_flag to 'Y'.
All other rows uploads succesfully; it works fine.
But when user change data in excel sheet and try to upload second time. DELETE_OLD_DATA procedure doesnt work in proper way.
I have found what problem is. when user use same template and try to upload data several times there is same SESSION_ID in database.
i.e. g_flag ='Y' when user try to upload second time. But when user log off and create template again it is work properly.
My question is: How i can different upload attempts? May be there is some id for each upload proccess.
if i can use this ID in my procedure user will have opportunity to use same template.
Thank you
