Degradation of status and reduction in gained points..very critical issue..

Dear all,
Due to EBS upgradation at our organization, I was unable to open the OTN since last 2-3 months.
I had PRO status having points more than 600 at that time.
Suddenly, today I have opened OTN and surprisely I found that my status is degraded to JOURNEYER from PRO and points reduced to 425 .
Earlier it was 625-630 points .
How it is possible ?
What I have to do to regain my losted status & points ?
regards
sanjay

I cannot see why egalitarian was something one would want to achieve in any environment other than religion or law, it's absolutely counterproductive and sets no intensives of creativeness and progression.If you have a point system, you have a hierarchy. You've been around long enough to have seen some of the best discussions here and on usenet were without a point system. Heck, anyone can ask Jonathan Lewis an optimizer question. That's a good thing! That's truly egalitarian. And I'm sure you could find examples of someone getting "correct" points followed by Jonathan giving a better answer. That's silly on its face, a lopsided hierarchy (of course, Jonathan said he doesn't care about the ace director label, or something along those lines, when his profile hadn't been updated to show it).

Many of us believe that the problem is it motivates people to provide less than useful content. If that is the only reason some people are here, it is indeed wrong. I don't have this impression, but even it was factual, it's up to the original poster to assign points and not to the person who responds or who is first in the game. People who have such intention will get frustrated very soon - and probably want the point system to be removed and replaced by a post counter ;-)lol, well, we know that is moot for now.

TCP Socket connection in CLOSE_WAIT status and not getting closed

I am facing an issue with the TCP socket connections not getting closed and they are in CLOSE_WAIT status for ever.
As a part of batch process in our application, emails are sent with 4 embedded images. These images are downloaded from 3rd party site with IP say "UUU.XXX.YYY.ZZZ"
The images are embedded to email as follows
1. An URL object is created with the site url.
URL urlPhoto = new
URL("http://UUU.XXX.YYY.ZZZ/email/photos.jpg");
2.     The image cid is created with the URL object and the image name
HtmlEmail htmlEmail = new HtmlEmail();
String cid1 = htmlEmail.embed(urlPhoto,
"photo.jpg");
3.     The image cid is added to the email template by replacing the ${cid1} and the email is sent.
<td valign="top">
               <img src="cid:${cid1}" width="279" height="274">
          </td>
When a mail is sent, 4 new TCP connections are opened and are put in CLOSE_WAIT status for ever. For every mail sent 4 new connections are opened. In UNIX there is an upper limit on the number of open file handles (defaults to 1024) at any point of time. The open TCP connection has the underlying socket in CLOSE_WAIT status and is not getting closed at all. When the upper limit (1024) is reached the batch process is throwing the following exception and terminates.

I tried 2 solutions
1. Got the HttpURLConnection from the URL object and invoked disconnect method on the same. But it doesn�t work.
2. Ran the batch process java program with the parameter �Dhttp.keepAlive=false to close the underlying connection but didn�t help.
I need the underlying sockets to be closed and not put in CLOSE_WAIT status after sending the mail.
Is it the problem with the embed method of HtmlEmail object not closing the underlying socket connection.
If anyone has faced this issue before, kindly let me know the possible solutions for the same ASAP.
Thank you,

This sounds more like a problem due to connection pooling at middle tier/application server.
If that has been ruled out, then you might to enable DCD or set expiry time on the server.

How to create a gui pf status and guititle in module pool programming?

hi frnds,
how to create a gui pf status and gui title in module pool programming?
my problem is i created a screen and wen execute the screen by a tcode.am nt able to activate SAVE BACK EXIT CANCEL COMMANDS?.how to do this can any one explain in detail procedure?
plz gve step by step process.

Hi,
For Title:In PBO...just write
SET TITLEBAR 'ZTITLE'.
double click on 'ZTITLE'....give whatever title u want...save it...activate...and check...reward points if useful...
PF means FUNCTION CODE
ex; set pf-status 'zrstatus'.
double click on the zrstatus expand the application server ,
at the time of execution the default menu(ie system,help),application toolbar buttons like enter,help etc and function keys(by default there will be no function keys)as are there on the normal
will appear on the screen.
Details:
PF-STATUS is used to set the GUI Status of a screen, ie you can control the options on your menu bar, application toolbar, the function keys assigned to various options etc.
Implementing the status for a screen can be done in 2 ways:
1) Create the GUI status using the object list of the program or by using the transaction SE41. Then, assign it to the screen using SET PF-STATUS statement.
2) Create the GUI status by means of forward navigation, ie, use the SET PF-STATUS 'XXX' statement where 'XXX' is the name of the GUI status and double click on it to create it.
Status names can have a maximum of 20 characters.
After assigning a GUI status to a screen, this is inherited to all subsequent screens. In order to have a different status for each of the subsequent screens, you have to set a separate status for each screen.
In transaction SE41,
1) Give the program name and the status name and click on the Create button.
2) Go to 'Function keys' and expand.
3) On top of the save icon type SAVE, on top of the back icon type BACK, on top the the exit icon type EXIT etc ie on top of all the icons that you want to use, type the respective names that you want to give.
Whatever you have typed now becomes the function codes of these icons and can be used in your program.
For example you have a screen 100.
In the 'Element list' tab of the screen, give "ok_code" as the name where "OK" is the type of screen element. Activate screen.
The flow logic for the screen looks like this:
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
MODULE STATUS_0100.
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
MODULE USER_COMMAND_0100.
Create the modules STATUS_0100 and USER_COMMAND_0100 in the main program by simply double clicking on them.
The code for these modules can be something like this:
MODULE status_0100 OUTPUT.
SET PF-STATUS 'Example'. "Example is the name of the GUI status
ENDMODULE.
MODULE user_command_0100 INPUT.
CASE ok_code.
WHEN 'SAVE'.
"call a subroutine to save the data or give statements to save data.
WHEN 'BACK'.
LEAVE TO SCREEN 0.
WHEN 'EXIT'.
LEAVE PROGRAM.
ENDCASE.
ENDMODULE.

How do I gain points in LUV?

QuestionHow do I gain points in LUV?
Answer
There are two ways to gain points for LUV. Let me just explain how that works.
One way is by giving LUV to another user. Each time you give LUV you'll earn points. See this chart below to see how much you get for each package.
The other way to get points from LUV is to receive it. Everytime you receive LUV you'll earn points too! This next chart shows you how many points you get from those packages above.
You also see those gold hearts. Those hearts are the LUV the recipient gets in turn for receiving LUV! So if I give Laura 100 hearts she gets 1,100 points and 50 LUV. Laura can give out that 50 LUV to me or whomever she chooses.
Now go out there and share the LUV!
Click here if you would like more info on giving LUV.

Exciting~~~ NOT Confusing~~~VERY.. the reason I am confused: I have a friend who also didn't quite understand the new system so we wanted to TEST IT..... WE AGREED to send each other 3 luvs (He was at my house) I sent him 3 and he sent me back 3 (these were our 3 free luvs) Please EXPLAIN how that works? We FEEL that we should have had the SAME amount of LUV points in the END. It appears that my
friend did not receive all the LUV I sent to him. SO ? ?? how come I ended up with total of 435 luv ~ YET he only received 370 luv ~~~~ We both started with NONE; we did the exact same thing???? I sent my 3 LUV hearts to him, he sent his 3 LUV hearts me.. (25 for each LUV heart sent) I earned a total of 75 points for this; plus he sent me 3, which should have been an additional 60 points I earned ~ 20 per heart received. Grand total of 75 plus 60 equals =135 points. This does NOT seem FAIR to me at all.
Also, You don't actually give a GOLD price listed that the the hearts will cost YOU.. so how much is it to buy say 10 HEARTS ?? an actual gold price per heart would be nice to know, or even for 10, 50 or 100 hearts. I also prefer the old game.. I agree with what sendmenoflowers had to say above "If you wanted to add a way of cashing in gold to buy extra luvs, you could have done so without completely doing away with the old system. All I wanted to do is send some luv this morning and I am not sure if it actually sent. The old system had a screen that showed me what I sent to my friends and what I have received."

Status 51 qty and/or delivery completed ind or final issue ind are missing

i am using we19 to test an inbound idoc mbgmcr02
i get status 51 qty and/or delivery completed ind or final issue ind are missing
i have the quantity filled in.
so i must need the delivery completed ind or final issue ind filled in.
i cannot find either or these???can anyone point me to them???
also on the e1BP2017_gm_code i am using 02.
can anyone give me a rundown on the valid codes to use here and what they mean

Hi Janice,
i saw your posting and we are also having the same issue and when i trie to open the link, it's not opening ' page not found'.
we are having an issue while moving the stock to vendor maintained stock.
The scenario is:
We have an externally processed operation in prod. ord and 2 of the components in the prod.ord are batch managed.( These components can have multiple batches) so when we released the prod.ord, P.Req and PO are getting created automatically. here we have two scenarios:
1. When we are maintaining single batch for the 2 components and release the prod.ord, every thing works fine i.e. stock is moving to vendor maintained stock i.e 541(o).
2. The problem is when we are maintaining multiple batches for the same components, the P.req and PO are getting created but stock is not moving to vendor maintained stock i.e 541(o)
when we debugged it's giving this message: " Qty and / or "delivery completed" ind. or final issue ind. are missing ".
Do i need to make any settings or am i making any mistake?
Plz guide me and it will be really helpful if anybody can give some steps to follow.
Thank you ,

Soft errors/warnings are creating idocs in 51 status, and creating orders

In our SAP 4.7 environment, inbound orders that encounter credit checks, materials in the wrong status, blocked customers, and several other issues that should just be warnings or messages rather than resulting in status 51 idocs, are hitting 51 error status, and they are creating orders in SAP as well (51 status idocs are still creating orders, and nuisance messages are creating 51 status idocs, and still creating orders). I assume someone made some programming changes years ago to cause this to happen. This is really polluting workflow and BD87, and customer service is duplicating orders as they process 51 status idocs through workflow, unaware that orders already created immediately regardless of the 51 status.
Can anyone point me in the direction of where I can specify what warnings or errors constitute 51 status, and where I can stop 51 status idocs from creating orders until the error is repaired?
Would it be in program RBDAPP01, or the inbound function module EDI_DATA_INCOMING?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Kevin,
so then it is time to check it out in WE19 debug mode. After each PERFORM in the EDIDC Loop in the FM IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS, check the control and status data, this will lead you to the point where the unexpected and/or unwanted behavior appears.
In the LOOP AT IDOC_CONTRL, in our system line 183 you find the comment fill IDOC Status. Check if field OK is not cleared here. If OK is set although you should have errors, then it's already too late.
But please double-check EXIT_SAPL_VEDA_004 if it changes the tables parameter didoc_status = idoc_status.
What I did not mention yet as I think you are talking only about IDoc not about online processing, applies to both:
Customizing SPRO, SAP Reference IMG, Sales and Distribution -> Sales -> Sales Documents -> Define variable messages:
Here you may have entries for application area V4, Sales messages (variable messages and EDI messages). Check if you find suspicious messages set to 'W' here.
If this is the case and table logging is switched on as it should be, you can use menu uitilities -> change logs to find out who changed what when.
Good luck!

Best approach to monitoring 'status' and Time in BPEL/BAM?

Hi,
I have a composite to handle 'Orders' which goes through various stages in the process. The process will change the status of the order as it goes through various activities, and the statuses include 'Submitted', 'Started Processing' and 'Processed'.
My question is, how would I monitor the average time that orders spend before they begin being processed i.e. the time difference between 'Submitted' status and 'Started Processing' status? Would it be using sensors (variable or activity) or feeding data through BAM adapter?
My Data Object in BAM is currently set to hold each different order and then I have columns to record the Time at which it reaches these statuses. Following these, I then have columns to hold the differences in Time between stages to see how long the order spends in these stages E.g difference between 'Submitted' and 'Started Processing' etc etc
Order ID | Submit Time | Started Processing Time | Processed Time | Time between 'Submitted' & 'Started Processing'
001 | 09:00 | 11:00 | 12:00 | 2 Hours
002 | 09:45 | 11:15 | 12:00 | 1 Hour 30 mins
I would appreciate it if someone could guide me on whether this design approach is correct and how I can build on this please. E.g, is the data object correct for this and will it be easy to work out average times across multiple orders (not sure how I can currently include this in the data object)
Thanks in advance

Hi
Yes, your data approach is correct.
You can use BAM adapter to feed information from the composite level e.g. mediator to BAM
and either Monitor Express ( 1-click as one response below pointed out and our recommended approach) or Sensors depending on your preference.
You can send timestamps for various status from composite to BAM.
Let BAM do the calculations for you.
The order booking sample on BAM OTN under samples and tutorials will be a good sample to refer to.
Also there are samples on Monitor Express, BPEL-BAM ( highlights BAM adapter at composite level)

Pf status and user-command

Hi alka ritu ,
Check the following websites for good documentation o n pf status and user-command

1. How to set pf-status
set pf-status ZZBILSTA.
2. How to set pf-status excluding/including single menu items
You can exclude menus by using exclude :
set pf-status ZZBILSTA excluding PST.
Note: Can also be used with include instead of exclude
3. How to set pf-status excluding/including several menu items
You have to use an internal table to store the status you want to ex- or include:
DATA:BEGIN OF I_PF_STATUS_TAB OCCURS 10,
FCODE,
END OF I_PF_STATUS_TAB.
FORM SET_PF_STATUS_POSTER.
REFRESH I_PF_STATUS_TAB. MOVE PST TO I_PF_STATUS_TAB. APPEND I_PF_STATUS_TAB. MOVE ART TO I_PF_STATUS_TAB. APPEND I_PF_STATUS_TAB. SET PF-STATUS ZZBILSTA EXCLUDING I_PF_STATUS_TAB.

AT USER-COMMAND.
CASE SY-UCOMM. WHEN ART. PERFORM STYR_ARTSKONTI. WHEN PST. PERFORM STYR_POSTER. WHEN BIL. PERFORM VIS_BILAG. ENDCASE.
6. Use of SY-PFKEY
You can use the system variable sy-pfkey to retrieve the name of the current pf status
USER-COMMAND:
If the user chooses a function code during list processing that is neither processed by the system, or PICK or PFnn, the system triggers the event AT USER-COMMAND. For this event, you must define your own GUI status for a list. To react to your own function codes in a program, you must define the following event block:
AT USER-COMMAND.
statements.
In this event block, you can use an IF or CASE structure to differentiate between the function codes. They are available in the system field sy-ucomm. There are further system fields that are filled in list events, such as sy-lsind and sy-pfkey, that allow you to make further case distinctions.
Triggering a List Event from the Program
You can trigger a list event from the program as follows:
SET USER-COMMAND fc.
This statement takes effect after the current list is completed. Before the list is displayed, the event assigned to function code fc is triggered, regardless of the dialog status you are using.
The effect is the same as when the user chooses the function. In other words, predefined list function codes are trapped and processed by the runtime environment, the function codes PICK and PFnn trigger the AT LINE-SELECTION and AT PFnnevents, and user-defined function codes trigger the AT USER-COMMAND event block.
Function code PICK triggers an event only if the cursor is located on a list line.
Using this statement in conjunction with the function codes reserved for system functions, you can call the system functions from the program. For example, you can use SET USER-COMMAND '%SC' to call the Find dialog box directly, or to position the list correctly before it is displayed.
If you use several SET USER-COMMAND statements while creating a list, the system executes only the last one.
Example of AT USER-COMMAND.

Set PF Status and At-Line Selection & At User-Command

Hi All
I've used set PF status, at user command and at-line selection in my program. initially when i click on the material number it was not drilling further that is it was not taking to secondary list. i commented the PF status and tried. then it was working fine. Later, after checking on couple of doc i added F.code PICK in my PF status and uncommented the set-PF status in my program it was working fine. Now my question is why this kind of behaviour. When i uncomment the PF status and run the program without the f.code PICK in my PF status(se41) it was not working but after inlcuding the F.code in my PF it is working. Any good explanation?
thks
Prabhu

hi,
generally fuction code is useful for the system to find on which button or in which area the user has clicked in. based on the function code the system executes the satatements that are in user command. in your case i think u didnt gave any functionality in user-command. when at-user command is a event in interactive reporting which is triggered based on the button u had clicked.
at line-selection event uses two system variables
   1. sy-lsind [ current list index number ]
   2. sy-lisel [ contains the current area in which user ckicked ].
   3. sy-ucomm [ function code of clicked button ].
using these 3 vars we can drill down to 21 lists [ including 1st list ]
if helpful reward some points.
with regards,
suresh.

Update parent status based on all children status and sum of children amount.

Hi,
I need to write sql query for the following scenarios.
We have 3 financial systems (sys1, sys2, sys3) where a same transaction gets entered independently into each system OR entered into one and exported to the other system. Transaction need not be in all 3 systems.
We need to create reconcile report to see the status of transaction and display if it is reconciled or not. For this, in our stored procedure we are pulling data from 3 systems into temp tables and using CTE and other logic marking each transaction status
in each system temp table. One of the systems (eg sys1), we made it as source.
Sys1 temp table has both parent and child records and are distinguished using type. Sys2 and sys3 has only children records. When report is created, we are showing parent from sys1 temp table and
children from new temp table where children status is updated based on availability of it in all 3 systems.

After going thru lot of other logic, final temp table will have only children with status assigned. The above temp table data is only for 1 scenario.
The following are status of children.
This is how status of children is determined:
Not Settled – All child records start as Not settled in temp tables.
Settled – when record exists in sys3 and other criteria is met.
Partially settled – record exists in sys3 and either in sys1 or sys2 or other criteria is not met.
Reconciled – child record should exist in all 3 systems and all criteria is match
Mismatched – record has wrong amount when compared in any of 2 systems.
**************** My Part below*******************
My part is to update the status of parent based on children status and parent amount must match sum of child amounts. If amounts don’t match, then leave the status of parent as null.
Determining the status of parent:
Not Settled – None of children has yet settled.
Settled – All children are settled.
Partially settled – some of children are as settled OR 1+ children are partially settled.
Reconciled – All children are reconciled.
Partially Reconciled – some children are partially reconciled.
Null – 1 or more childen has a status of mismatched.
AND sum of children amount should match parent amount
How can I update the status of parent based on all children and sum of amount of children equal to parent amount.
Thanks,
Spunny

>> We have 3 financial systems (sys1, sys2, sys3) where the same transaction gets entered independently into each system OR entered into one and exported to the other system. Transaction need not be in all 3 systems. <<
Your design is fundamentally wrong. In RDBMS, we want to have one fact, one way, in one place in the schema. The goal of all databases is to remove redundancy, not increase it. This not just SQL; this was true for hierarchical and network databases before them!
>> We need to create reconcile report to see the status of transaction and display if it is reconciled or not. For this, in our stored procedure we are pulling data from 3 systems into temp tables and using CTE and other logic marking each transaction
status in each system temp table. One of the systems (eg sys1), we made it as source. <<
You have re-invent the worst of 1970's file processing, but you want to use a temp table instead of scratch tape. This is not RDBMS or good SQL.
>> Sys1 temp table has both parent [sic] and child [sic] records [sic] and are distinguished using type. Sys2 and sys3 has only children [sic] records [sic]. When report is created, we are showing parent from sys1 temp table and children from new temp
table where children [sic] status is updated based on availability of it in all 3 systems. <,
The terms “child” and “parent” are not part of RDBMS. They come from network databases. You are building fake pointer chains we do have referenced and referencing tables. Or do you mean to model weak and strong entities? Where is the DRI actions?
These things are not tables! They have no keys, so they are called (garbage) piles. But even the garbage is wrong. There is no generic “id” in RDBMS; it has to be “<something in particular>_id” to be valid. Since you do not do math on it, it should not
be a numeric.
A “rec_type” is a nominal scale, so it cannot be a numeric either! Likewise, we have no generic “status”, but a status is state of being so it has to have a temporal dimension. And did you know that “reference” is a reserved word in SQL as well as another ISO-11179
violation.
The MONEY data type does not do correct math. Google it! It is another Sybase left-over that nobody should ever use.
Finally, you used the old Sybase INSERT INTO ..SELECT..), .. disaster instead of the ANSI/ISO Standard VALUES table constructor.
>> This is how status of children [sic] is determined: ..
My part is to update the status of parent [sic] based on children [sic] status and parent [sic] amount must match sum of child [sic] amounts.<<
Your narrative describes what Tom Johnston called a Non-Normal Form Redundancy. We do not put summary data in the strong entity; another basic data modeling principle. We build a VIEW that gives us the current summary. Your mindset is still in punch cards and
magnetic tape files.

Status and Tracking System Documentation

Hello Experts,
I have decided to implement Status and Tracking System.
Besides the SAP Help i don't have any other documentation.
Could you send me all the documentation possible to [email protected]
I will award points.
Best regards,
João Arvanas.

Joao,
There was a document / presentation on status and tracking by Gerd Schoeffl from the RIG that got officialized into the following how do guild
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/c04de690-0201-0010-919d-c64ad7e5af8a
Check SDN and OSS on STS or "Status and Tracking"
Hope this helps,
Mary

Sap (Status and Tracking System) manual.

Hello I already researched to find a user manual of Sap (Status and Tracking System), where everything´s explained step by step, and how to use the STS to, but I didn´t find any, does anyone can help me? Thanks
Best regards,
MJ

Hi,
You can find the STS user manual learning guide in the following mentioned link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sem60ep1/helpdata/en/05/242537cedf2056e10000009b38f936/frameset.htm
This link would help you in understanding STS wrt BPS.
Hope this helps.
Pls award points.
Regards,
Poonam
