Did GET PARAMETER statement works in update task?

HIi,
I'm storing some value in SAP memory using SET PARAMETER ID pid FIELD fld while changing the sales order, after that in outbound Idoc user exit(this was called in update task), I'm trying to get that value. But GET PARAMETER ID pid FIELD fld is failing to get that value.
Did this "GET PARAMETER " will not work in update task? If no, how do I get that value.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
I don't think that it is possible. It's too late to call rollback. The FM in update task is called after command COMMIT WORK. Here is a quote from ABAP documentation:
If during the update an error occurs, the update work process executes a database rollback, returns the log record with a note into table VBLOG and informs the user whose program has created the log record by SAPMail. After removing the error cause, the returned log records can be updated again.
So you should call that module only in case that you are 100% sure that it will be processed correctly.
Cheers

This issue got resolved using the below payload...basically you will need to update the task with all other task details that you will get in response from getTaskDetailsById() or getTaskDetailsByNumber()...

SET/GET Parameter not working? pls hlp

hi i am using a transaction variant on transaction LT01 - create transfer order. using the transaction variant i have greyed out 3 fields on the initial screen. for the greyed out fields i am passing the values using a SET PARAMETER. This is working fine for 2 fields but it does not work for the third field. any idea where i am going wrong?? the first field is warehouse number which is working fine. the second field is movement type and the third field is storage location. the first 2 works fine and the data gets populated in the greyed out field but the storage location field does not work. The field has a parameter id. pls help its urgent.
promise will reward points if its resolved

Hi american,
1. but the storage location field does not work.
In such cases, we have to follow another approach.
(CALL TRANSACTION USING BDCDATA
2. Just copy paste in new program.
(it will populate the STORAGE LOCATION field)
3.
report abc.
data : bd like table of bdcdata with header line.
bd-program = 'SAPML03T'.
bd-dynPRO = '0101'.
bd-dynbegin = 'X'.
append bd.
CLEAR BD.
bd-fnam = 'LTAK-BWLVS'.
bd-fval = 'AAA'.
append bd.
bd-fnam = 'LTAK-LGNUM'.
bd-fval = '015'.
append bd.
STORAGE LOCATION
bd-fnam = 'LTAP-WERKS'.
bd-fval = 'AAA'.
append bd.
CALL TRANSACTION 'LT01'
USING BD.

amit m.

How do I get wifi to work after updating to ios 8.2?

I have a iphone 5: A 1429.
wifi was working great with ios 8.1.3.
I updated to ios 8.2.... and it says wifi is connected, but internet doesn't work for more than 2 minutes. I can turn it on and off airplane, and I can have up to 2 more minutes of internet. I have 3 other devices on the network, and all of them work perfectly and have the internet, so the issue isn't the network.
How can I get the internet to work on my phone?

Try going to Settings, General, Reset, Reset Network Settings. Once done, go back to wifi in settings and enter the router's password.

Webstart no longer works after update from Java 7 Update 67 to Java 7 Update 71/72

Hi,
We have an application that is launched via Webstart. Last year, we had to make a bunch of changes to the application in order to work with Java 7 Update 45. It has been working fine up to and including Java 7 Update 67. However, it is no failing with Java 7 Update 71 and 72. Upon launch it is giving the error below. I have searched online and found other articles related to the AccessControlException but they are about 7 years old. I also tried adding this to the java.policy file with no luck. Any ideas or help would be appreciated to determine what I can do to get this to work for update 71.

Set and get parameter id

Hi,
I need to store one variable value and I need to retrieve the same variable value in same program. For this I have written set and get parameter ids in the same program. It is working fine but if I log off the system and if I logon the system it is not working I mean before log off the variable is showing some value if I log on again that variable is showing empty. But I want to capture the field values after log off and log on also. Is there any other option can I use table?
Please help me I will give points.
Thanks.

Hi
SAP memory is a memory area to which all main sessions within a SAPgui have access. You can use SAP memory either to pass data from one program to another within a session, or to pass data from one session to another. Application programs that use SAP memory must do so using SPA/GPA parameters (also known as SET/GET parameters). These parameters can be set either for a particular user or for a particular program using the SET PARAMETER statement. Other ABAP programs can then retrieve the set parameters using the GET PARAMETER statement. The most frequent use of SPA/GPA parameters is to fill input fields on screens
SAP global memory retains field value through out session.
set parameter id 'MAT' field v_matnr.
get parameter id 'MAT' field v_matnr.
They are stored in table <b>TPARA</b>.
ABAP memory is a memory area that all ABAP programs within the same internal session can access using the EXPORT and IMPORT statements. Data within this area remains intact during a whole sequence of program calls. To pass data
to a program which you are calling, the data needs to be placed in ABAP memory before the call is made. The internal session of the called program then replaces that of the calling program. The program called can then read from the ABAP memory. If control is then returned to the program which made the initial call, the same process operates in reverse.
ABAP memory is temporary and values are retained in same LUW.
export itab to memory id 'TEST'.
import itab from memory Id 'TEST'.
Here itab should be declared of same type and length.

How to use SET and GET parameter commands ?

Explain these two giving an example?As which is used for what?

Hi Albert,
         SAP allows you to make use of SPA/GPA technique to fill the input fields of a called transaction with data from the calling program.SPA/GPA parameters are values that the system stores in the global, user-specific SAP memory. SAP memory allows you to pass values between programs. A user can access the values stored in the SAP memory during one terminal session for all parallel sessions. Each SPA/GPA parameter is identified by a 20-character code. You can maintain them in the Repository Browser in the ABAP Workbench. The values in SPA/GPA parameters are user-specific.
ABAP programs can access the parameters using the SET PARAMETER and GET PARAMETER statements.
To fill one, use:
SET PARAMETER ID <pid> FIELD <f>.
This statement saves the contents of field <f> under the ID <pid> in the SAP memory. The code <pid> can be up to 20 characters long. If there was already a value stored under <pid>, this statement overwrites it. If the ID <pid> does not exist, double-click <pid> in the ABAP Editor to create a new parameter object.
To read an SPA/GPA parameter, use:
GET PARAMETER ID <pid> FIELD <f>.
This statement fills the value stored under the ID <pid> into the variable <f>. If the system does not find a value for <pid> in the SAP memory, it sets SY-SUBRC to 4, otherwise to 0.
To fill the initial screen of a program using SPA/GPA parameters, you normally only need the SET PARAMETER statement.
The relevant fields must each be linked to an SPA/GPA parameter.
On a selection screen, you link fields to parameters using the MEMORY ID addition in the PARAMETERS or SELECT-OPTIONS statement. If you specify an SPA/GPA parameter ID when you declare a parameter or selection option, the corresponding input field is linked to that input field.
On a screen, you link fields to parameters in the Screen Painter. When you define the field attributes of an input field, you can enter the name of an SPA/GPA parameter in the Parameter ID field in the screen attributes. The SET parameter and GET parameter checkboxes allow you to specify whether the field should be filled from the corresponding SPA/GPA parameter in the PBO event, and whether the SPA/GPA parameter should be filled with the value from the screen in the PAI event.
When an input field is linked to an SPA/GPA parameter, it is initialized with the current value of the parameter each time the screen is displayed. This is the reason why fields on screens in the R/3 System often already contain values when you call them more than once.
When you call programs, you can use SPA/GPA parameters with no additional programming overhead if, for example, you need to fill obligatory fields on the initial screen of the called program. The system simply transfers the values from the parameters into the input fields of the called program.
However, you can control the contents of the parameters from your program by using the SET PARAMETER statement before the actual program call. This technique is particularly useful if you want to skip the initial screen of the called program and that screen contains obligatory fields.
If you want to set SPA/GPA parameters before a program call, you need to know which parameters are linked to which fields on the initial screen. A simple way of doing this is to start the program that you want to call, place the cursor on the input fields, and choose F1 followed by Technical info. The Parameter ID field contains the name of the corresponding SPA/GPA parameter. Alternatively, you can look at the screen definition in the Screen Painter.
The SPA/GPA parameter for the input field Company has the ID CAR. Use this method to find the IDs CON, DAY, and BOK for the other input fields.
The following executable program is connected to the logical database F1S and calls an update transaction:
REPORT BOOKINGS NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING.
TABLES SBOOK.
START-OF-SELECTION.
WRITE: 'Select a booking',
SKIP.
GET SBOOK.
WRITE: SBOOK-CARRID, SBOOK-CONNID,
         SBOOK-FLDATE, SBOOK-BOOKID.
HIDE: SBOOK-CARRID, SBOOK-CONNID,
         SBOOK-FLDATE, SBOOK-BOOKID.
AT LINE-SELECTION.
SET PARAMETER ID: 'CAR' FIELD SBOOK-CARRID,
                    'CON' FIELD SBOOK-CONNID,
                    'DAY' FIELD SBOOK-FLDATE,
                    'BOK' FIELD SBOOK-BOOKID.
CALL TRANSACTION 'BOOK'.
The basic list of the program shows fields from the database table SBOOK according to the user entries on the selection screen. These data are also stored in the HIDE areas of each line.
Cheers
Nishanth

SAP Memory, Set and Get parameter

Hi All,
     I am running two programs in background from program1
Eq: Program1 --> Calls 2 programs
                          Program1_01.(First Program)
                          Program2_01(Second Program).
Programs1 schedules Program1_01 and Program1_02 in background. These two programs are interdependent.
Program1_01 extracts data, evaluates and sets the Flag. This Flag is exported to SAP Memory using
Set parameter id 'p_id_flag' field Flag.
Program1_02 checks for Program1_01 is completed in background. If complted gets the Flag value from SAP Memory using "Get paramter id 'p_id_flag' field Flag.
When i checked this is not happning. When saw Flag in Program1_01 is set as Flag = 'X'.
When I came and checked in Program1_02 after Get Parameter statement Falg value is SPACE.
Cn hlp on this?

Hi,
The problem simply lies in fact that pid was provided in lowercase.
Use:
SET PARAMETER ID 'P_ID_FLAG' FIELD flag.
GET PARAMETER ID 'P_ID_FLAG' FIELD flag.
It works fine then.
Note!
Though SAP claims it is mandatory to create pid in TPARA table, in fact this is not required. Each time SET PARAMETER is executed, system checks if data object P_ID_FLAG was defined in SAP memory. If not it will automatically create it for us. But be carefull here. If there is such data object, its value will be overwritten.
As for your last question, your statement (FREE MEMORY ....) is ok.
Regards
Marcin

Can't get paypal to work? This may help.

Well, 24 hours after my 32 GB ipod touch purchase, I am not an apple fan. I had a very typical experience, I have windows 7 32bit on a Dell XPS laptop M1530, I downloaded a fresh version of iTunes (9.2.1.5), I upgraded the ipod to newest version (iOS4). Why did I spend so much time getting this stuff to work? I did get it to work, but support was useless and blamed microsoft (in fact I didn't do all the steps correctly).
Anyway a few things I figured out. Before you begin, you need a valid paypal account. You also need internet explorer. This doesn't work on Chrome for whatever reason. You can go to start menu -> Default programs to change web requests to open up IE instead of chrome (then just change it back when you are done with paypal activation).
Also, you need to have activated the computer for use with itunes. Why that's not done when you install is a mystery. From the menu bar at the very top of itunes, go to the store menu, and select 'activate my computer'. Note, you can only have 5 active computers, but you can deactivate all of them. The only way to deactivate individual computers is to have them connected to the network and with itunes, and just go store -> deactivate computer. If the computer is not activated the process will also fail when paypal redirects back to the itunes app.
Next, create/update your itunes account. When you get to the payment options, you select paypal. That launches a web browser. Again, chrome didn't work for me. You go through the paypal logins. When you are done you should get two warning messages, one to display only secure or all content (hit 'no'). The other warning mentions that you are launching an app from a web browser. Click allow (or yes or whatever).
The process should bring you back to itunes purchase setup. Scroll down to the bottom, hit 'done'. To verify, I log out and log back in again, and look up your account info. It should have paypal. Note, once you get this set up, you don't really have to screw with it again I think.
The other tidbit I have is that once you download the apps (click the price tag on the app) you need to sync your ipod. If you click on your ipod on the left menu, then click on apps, select all and click apply on bottom right of screen. That should work.

Also, you need to have activated the computer for use with itunes. Why that's not done when you install is a mystery.
Because you don't need an iTunes account tio use or install iTunes.
You cannot authorize the computer until you have an account because that's what you are authorizing.
Note, you can only have 5 active computers, but you can deactivate all of them.
You can have 5 computers authorized at any one time. You can only select Deauthorize all when you do hae 5 authorized and you can only do it one time per year.
Next, create/update your itunes account.
Again you cannot "activate" (which is authorize) unless you have an iTunes account. So you cannot authorize iTunes and then create an iTunes account.

Since the last update of iTunes genius will not work it updates but nothing else

since Itunes last update I can not get genius to work, it updates but when i click on start genius nothing happens, i am verily new to this so i am not sure what to do, it did work great before this update. i now have a new ipad mini and would love to have this working.

Hi there navicin79,
You may find the troubleshooting steps in the articles below helpful. The first thing I would try is reinstalling iTunes as outlined in the first article.

Pearl 8100 quit working when updating software

I have a Pearl 8100 on AT&T and attempting to update the device software to version 4.5xxx. I downloaded the software onto my Vista computer and while updating, the device crashed as the application said it was removing items. The device shutdown and now the light does a double flash in red and will not start up. I have tried removing the battery, but does not power up, only receive the flashing light. I am unable to master reset as the device needs to be running from everything I can find. How can I get it to work and update the software?

Did you get an error message/number?

Any ideas on getting airplay to work with u-verse router?

Ok, so my airplay is just horrible on my apple tv/iphone/macbook pro combo.
Airplay is a total joke, it will play to the apple tv for maybe 20 seconds and then it just gets all choked. The "remote" app does the same thing. I upgraded my internet connection thinking that at&t would come out and give me a new router too, but i guess they just bump the download speeds to the router. I'm pretty sure that the router is the problem. It's a "2wire" 802.11g supplied by att.
Any ideas would be appreciated. I'm going to call the support number for the apple tv, but it's been my experience that support people are just looking at the same simple trouble shooting info that is posted on the internet. So i'm not expecting much.

well i did get airplay to work better by trying all the channels in the router and settling on channel 4 as being the most reliable.
Now if I could only get netflix to stream without stopping every minute or so. We have a 12mbps internet connection. Which is about 4 times faster than the standard At-t connection speed
I still think that this stuff requires a much better router than most people have. My router is a G router, and it seems maxxed out. I wish i knew that things would work well with a faster N router.

Did GET PARAMETER statement works in update task?
