hi ,
Call transaction is SAP-provided functionality for entering data into an SAP system. Call Transaction guarantees that the data adheres to SAP's data model by using the same screens an online user sees in a transaction. This process is commonly referred to as screen scraping. To use Call Transaction, specify the following types of instructions:
Initiation--transaction to call
Navigation--sequence of screens to process
Mapping--input data that should go into each field on a screen
TRY USING THE FUNCTION MODULE <b>"ABAP_DOCU_DOWNLOAD"</b> for documentation of t-code
reward points if useful

  • Generate Documentation for all components in a project

    Hi there,
    V12.0.8 -- Is there a way to generate documentation for ALL transactions in a project at once.  Instead of having to open each one individually?
    Thanks,

    Amy,
    No there isn't but it's a good suggestion and I will add it to my list of feature requests.

  • F1 documentation for a Parameter Transaction

    Hello
    I have a Parameter Transaction in a customer namespace and need to create F1 documentation for it. Is it possible?
    (Created in SE93 and linked to SM30).
    I can't find anything in the menus, online help or this forum.
    The transaction is part of an Area Menu and ideally I would like to provide some F1 help there.
    Thanks
    Graham

    Hi
    I looked in SE61 but there is no drop down menu item for Transaction.
    Balu:
    I have an Area Menu for example:
    TR1
    TR2
    TR3
    ......etc
    Transaction TR1 is linked to a report so I created docu for this and now the user can position the cursor on TR1 in the menu, press F1 and see a popup with the documentation.
    Transaction TR2 was created as a parameter transaction linked to a View via SE30 (selected as a dialog transaction). The user can start TR2 and gets a View where they can enter data and use F1 for the individual fields. Up to here everything works OK.
    What is missing is to allow the user to select TR2 and use F1 to see some documentation whilst still in the menu.
    Since TR2 isn't linked to a report or data element I can't find a way to create docu for it.
    Thanks
    Graham

  • Creating a Web Service Proxy for a transaction with Microsoft Visual Studio

    Hi experts out there,
    I have created a simple transaction which I'd like to call as a webservice. Getting the WSDL from an authenticated browser (from which I started the xMII Workbench) works fine. But when I try to create a Web Reference within my Visual Studio project I only get the following output:
    "XacuteWS" Description
    Methods
    Xacute ( LoginName As string ,  LoginPassword As string ,  InputParams As InputParams ) As Rowset
    I think this is because my visual studio is not authenticated with the xMII server. So is there any way to achieve this? I have to find a way to generate a .NET proxy for out xMII web services because otherwise it would be too complicated to use the web services from within our .NET applications.
    Thanks in advance for any hint on this topic!
    Achim

    Two comments:
    1) The generated proxy looks correct.  If you explore the generated code for the InputParams object and the Rowset object, they should represent the incoming and outgoing data structures for your transaction.  If not, and if you are returning an XML property type from the transaction, be sure that you have used the "Assign Reference Document" technique to tell MII what the structure of your outgoing document is (there are a few other discussion threads on that topic).
    2) Personally, I find it much easier to consume MII services from .NET code using a URL-based technique instead of a SOAP based technique.  Invoke the "Runner" servlet (see the documentation) and you'll get an XML document back, that will always be in the MII Rowsets/Rowset/Row format.  Also, it is "self describing" because it includes Column metadata information.  It is very trivial to load this into a .NET XmlDocument object and parse/process it.  In fact, doing a similar approach, I've been able to make MII services appear as ADO.NET tables/stored procedures to .NET code.

  • "Datasource" or "Tx Datasource" for Local Transactions

    I am wondering whether I should use a "Normal DataSource" or "Transactional DataSource"
    Object in my EJB deployment.
    According to the docs, Tx Datasources are needed only for distributed transactions.
    For local transactions Datasource is recommended. I need only local transactions
    and
    initially used a non-transactional datasource.
    The problem I came across is that WL6.1 doesn't set the ISOLATION LEVEL as specified
    in the deployment descriptors when a normal Datasource object is used.
    When I switch to Tx Datasource - isolation is set properly.
    Has anyone encountered this and is it a bug or am I not understanding the
    documentation correctly.
    Thanks, Samuel Kounev

    and combine LO DS with AP/AR and GL through infoset or mutiprovider...
    You need to look for these KPIs in different datasources...and then link them.

  • DOCUMENTATION FOR THE BENIFIT OF ALL QM CONSULTANTS u2013USER PROFILE

    DOCUMENTATION FOR THE BENIFIT OF ALL QM CONSULTANTSu2013
    USER PROFILE TO STOP THE UD, WHEN RR IS NOT DONE.
    I faced problem in creating the User Profile to fulfill my user requirement.
    SHYAMAL JOSHIJI and CRAIG took active participation in solving this issue.
    Both of them richly deserve appreciation.
    I want to thank CRAIG again, as he insisted me to prepare documentation and publish for the benefit of QM Consultants.
    Requirement : User Profile is to be created to block the UD, if RR is not done. 
    Inspection Type used: 01 or Copy of 01.--> Z10 is used which is copy of Inspection Type 01.
    Material Master: For all lab chemicals, Inspection Type Z10 are assigned.
    Inspection Plan: For each Lab Chemical the Inspection Plan is created.
                               Usage is 5  Goods Receipt.
                              Status is 4  Released General.
    Create one dummy selection set, and corresponding Code Group and Code.
    Create one Qualitative Dummy MIC  INVDUMMY
    Assign the Selection Set to the Dummy MIC.
    Most important  the control parameter of Dummy Qualitative MIC is given below.
    Control Parameter Details.
    S.No.>Control Title>Requirement
    1>Type>Characteristic Attribute
    2>Sample>Sampling Procedure
    3>Results Confirmation>Required Characteristic
                                           (This is a must)
    3--> Results Confirmation --> Single Result
    4>Inspection Scope>Fixed Scope
    5>Documentation Confirmation>No Documentation
    6>Miscellaneous>As per requirements
    7>Print>As per requirements
    This Dummy MIC has to be added to each and every material whose inspection type is 01 or Z10.
    Preferably it must be the first MIC in the Inspection Plan.
    Creation of User Profile
    1. SAP defined status profile  QM_L_003 is used to stop Stock Posting before the UD.
    2. Create user defined status  QM_UDZ10 by coping the SAP defined status Profile  QM_L_003.
    3. Create the Status u201CINITu201D and Status u201CQFINu201D.
       Any meaningful name can be given to the user defined Status.
    User Status has 9 columns.
    FOR THE FIRST ROW VALUES ARE GIVEN BELOW.
    Let us discuss for the status  u201CINITu201D
    First Column Status Number 1.
    Second Column Status  INIT.
    Third Column  Short Text  RR NOT DONE
    Fourth Column  Long Text Check Box  Do Not Activate
    Fifth Column  Initial Status Check Box  Activate
    Sixth Column  Lowest Status Number  1
    Seventh Column  Highest Status Number  10
    Eighth Column  Position  1
    Nineth Column  Priority  1
    FOR THE SECOND ROW VALUES ARE GIVEN BELOW.
    Let us discuss for the status  u201CQFINu201D
    First Column Status Number 2.
    Second Column Status QFIN.
    Third Column  Short Text  RR AND UD DONE
    Fourth Column  Long Text Check Box  Do Not Activate
    Fifth Column  Initial Status Check Box  Do Not Activate
    Sixth Column  Lowest Status Number  2
    Seventh Column  Highest Status Number  20
    Eighth Column  Position  1
    Nineth Column  Priority  1
    Please note when multiple status exist, only one status has to be activated for the Initial Status(5th Column).
    Initial Status check box can not be activated more than one status.
    I have defined two statuses.
    I have activated the u201CINITIAL STATUS CHECK BOXu201D for the user defined status u201CINITu201D only.
    System will not ALLOW  to activate the Initial STATUS CHECK BOX for the second status u201CQFINu201D.
    NOW BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS HAVE  TO BE DEFINED FOR EACH ROW
    Double click the u201CRRCLu201D status.
    The new screen appears  u201CChange Status Profile: Transaction Controlu201D.

    This document is written for the benefit of all QM Consultants.
    Good Luck.

    Dear Prasad,
    Please change the User profile name as per your requirement.- meaningful name.
    You have to create two statuses.
    The first status is RRCL.
    The Second status Is QFIN.
    RRCL and QFIN - u can name them as u like.
    There are two statuses.
    is it clear?
    First you have to create two statuses in the user profile.
    You can name them as you like.
    For example RRND --> Result recording not done (You can name the first status as RRND)
    Second status UDCD --> Usage Decision Can be Done ( You can name the second status as UDCD.
    It is your wish.
    For each status you have to assign the business transactions .
    Hope this is clear.
    Best of luck.

    hi
    What Are SAP End User Manual
    It is the same for every other modules although here I reference it mainly for SAP HR.
    1) You should understand which targeted group for the end-user training is for.  Do they have any computer background or not. 
    2) In what way they are going to make use of the manuals supplied to them during the course of training.
    Let us focus on how to prepare manuals:
    In the client side , End Users are not permanent. If they get any better job outside they will resign and go out. Even if you train them well, again the end-user team disappears after some time. That is why implementing company( Client ) expects SAP Consultants to prepare documents which are self explanatory (even to a layman in SAP) and study themselves and use the sap easy access very comfortably.
    Hence we should prepare a document which explains the following things comfortably:
    A) All the buttons and Screens we have in sap and its importance for an end-user.
    B) All the transaction codes used by end user.
    C) The STEP by STEP usage methodology with screen shots and explanatory foot notes for each Transaction code.
    D) Prepare a book a table and columns which should have the following information:
    - Sl.NO.
    - Transaction Code
    - Navigation path 
    - Use of the Code
    - Expected Result
    - Achieved Result
    - Remarks/Any Comment
    E) Highlight the common troubles during the usage of SAP by an end- user and give the solutions (ready to use)
    These problems you can come across while giving the in house training for the end-users.  You just place them at one place and publish it for their usage in future for any of their new joinees as an end-user.
    F) Every consultant is aware that the entire Organsiational Management is with end user only. Means consultant should train the end user in entire OM.
    G) We should inform the importance of info types and usage for our purposes at expert mode, PA30, PA40 etc.,
    H) Each field in the international infotypes should be explained very clearly and ensure that they are comfortable with the fields of infotypes which have been configured for their company.
    For example : info type 0001 Org Assignment insists about the three structures of the HR. We should explain each sub field like Emp Group, Emp Sub Group, Personnel Area and Sub Area and its importance and relevance to their company so as to understand while processing them from the end- user point of view . 
    When an employee is hired into the company , now the end-user in a position to understand which employee group and subgroup, Personnel Area And Sub Area etc., should allotted..
    Like this whatever comes across in SAP Easy Access should be insisted through the training of end users.
    I) Demo, exercises and solutions should be provided in the manuals.
    J) Glossary of terms and expansion of Acronyms, Abbreviations should be given.  Like this each consultant should focus on end user training and prepare the documents.          
    What is the Difference between Consultant & End users?
    SAP consultant role is to build the system, changes & modification/updation in currently installed SAP system for the end users.
    SAP End user only use the SAP system just to fetch some info, or to create new thing. So a end user is just using the final product which it is meant for and consultnat design the product/updation and modification.
    The roles and responsibilities of end users is working in easy access menu they will not have authorizations of using img settings if they get doubt they will send query to the implemented company and just entering day to day transactions.
    Roles and Responsibilities of End User:
    Using the software at the end or after the implementation is an End User.
    In sap HR , we do come across entire Org Management creation by an end user after the Personnel strucutre is created.  OM objects like creation of Org Unit means functional area or dpt , creation Job and Position and its occupancy is with in the limits of an enduser.  Initiallly the OM is created by sap consultant . In course of time a new department has appeared in the company of the client .. this has to be created by the enduser rather than depending up on the implementor... similarly new job and position..like this small things are always done by the enduser.
    The entire work of OM is purely depends upon the enduser.
    After from this running periodical payroll and Ensuring of the Time schedules ( Work Schedules) of each employee is done from sap easy access by an enduser and the show run of payroll everymonth is by the enduser only.  Like this lot of roles are there for an end user. 
    Whatever the problems come across during the enduser utilisation of sap ...that will reach as ticket to the support team
    Explain what are the job responsibilities of END user & POWER user.
    One would need user id and password to access SAP be it a developer, consultant, administrator, or end user.
    End user is the one who performs transactions in SAP after it goes live. Such as posting an invoice, goods receipt, creating purchase orders, sales orders etc.
    Power Users are users with advanced knowledge in certain applications and with special permissions or roles. They work in the specialist departments in the company and are available to other users as contact persons.

    Hi
    Developing a simple application using steps "User Decision" and "Mail"
    Basic terminology used in the workflow:
    The workflow definition is the set of rules that determine the path that the process takes. For example, how a purchase requisition is processed, from the initial request to the creation of the purchase order
    A Workflow Instance, which is often simply referred to as the workflow, is a single workflow run. For example, the processing of a single purchase requisition for computers.
    The Tasks are the steps in the process, which have to be performed either by people or automatically by the software. For example, to check for the availability of the spare computers in the company.
    A Work item is the task instance that is performed as a single workflow step. For example, check that there are no spare computers available in the company.
    Agents are the people who process the tasks (via the work items). For example, requisitioner and a member of the purchasing department.
    Container is the place where all the data used in the workflow is collected.
    Binding is the set of rules that define which data is passed to which part of the process.
    Building a simple workflow application
    The central tool for creating, displaying and processing a workflow is the workflow builder (Transaction SWDD). Within the workflow builder you can create all components of a workflow, including all the containers you need for getting the data from one step to another.
    Generally, most of the workflows are started by an event (for example, when a material is created or when a new purchase requisition arrives). You define which data from this event needs to be passed to the workflow via binding.
    However you can also start any workflow directly. Let us create a simple workflow and start the workflow directly, using the testing tools.
    Call transaction SWDD. When the workflow builder is called for the first time, a newly created initial workflow definition appears or else last created workflow appears. In such cases you can opt to create a new workflow by pressing “Create New Workflow”(ctrl + shft + F5). The following screen appears.
    The initial workflow screen has the following parts:
    a. The start of the workflow definition, indicated by .
    b. The end of the workflow definition, indicated by .
    c. The area in which you insert the new workflow definition is indicated by .
    Now select the undefined step and select Create step or double click the undefined step. Now among the different steps chose the User Decision by double clicking on it.
    Developing a simple application using steps "User Decision" and "Mail"
    Previous
    Now enter the title for the user decision “ Please make a decision”. Also enter the decision texts as Approve and Reject. On pressing enter, the outcome values default to the Decision texts but you can specify your own names, if desired. Now we need to select the agent. Agent is the person to whom the work item needs to be sent.. Since this is just a beginning, we would hardcode the user name. Select the User from the drop down list and enter the user name to whom the work item needs to be sent. In general, this type of agent assignment is not done. Agents are generally assigned using the expression, agent assignment rule or organization object (job, position etc.).
    Now select Transfer and to graphic button. Following screen appears:
    Now we need to include a mail step to be sent to the requestor. Now select the line “Approve” and do a right click. Different options on shown on the context menu. Select Create.
    Now select the step “Send Mail” from the list.
    Developing a simple application using steps "User Decision" and "Mail"
    ...Previous
    Now enter the subject and the body of the message for the mail to be sent.
    Do not change the recipients. Our mail is intended for the persons who triggered this workflow. &_WF_INITIATOR& contains the value who executed the workflow. Since this is a test object, we are using &_WF_INITIATOR&. But we wouldn’t be using this variable in real time scenarios. We would discuss about this in the coming documents.
    Now select Transfer and to graphic button.
    A popup appears requesting for the abbreviation and the name for this task. Enter the same and press enter.
    Now enter the package as local object and press enter.
    Follow the steps 5 through 9 for the step “Reject”. The following screen appears:
    Press SAVE to save the workflow application. You need to enter an abbreviation and name for your workflow as shown below. You can change any of these at any later point. After saving, a number is assigned to your workflow starting with WS, as shown below.
    Developing a simple application using steps "User Decision" and "Mail"
    ...Previous
    To execute the workflow, activate it by choosing the activate button.
    Test the workflow by choosing Test. The following screen appears.
    Now choose Execute to start the workflow.
    Now the recipient would receive a work item in his SAP® inbox (Transaction SBWP).
    Now execute the work item by pressing “Execute”. The following screen appears:
    Choose one among Approve or Reject as part of the user decision. He can select the third option to retain the work item in his inbox and make the decision later. Now suppose that the recipient has chosen one of the first options. Now a mail would be sent to the requestor with the status of his request.
    Creating a Container element
    This document details about creation of a container element in workflow and using it in the step "Mail".
    Pre-requisites:
    It is assumed that the reader of this Tutorial is aware of creating a workflow definition with the step “Mail”. If not, please go through the document on creating the same available, by clicking here.
    Steps:
    1. Create a workflow definition using the transaction SWDD.
    2. Let’s create a container element for Carrier id. Click on the “Workflow Container” on the left side of the screen (as shown in the screenshot below):
    3. Now double-click on “Double-Click to Create”
    4. Enter the details pertaining to CARRID here.
    5. Click on tab “Properties” and select “Import”.
    6. Click on “Confirm (Enter)”.
    7. Now the element created could be seen on the left side, below the “Workflow Container”.
    Creating a Container element
    Previous
    1. Create a “Mail” step by double-clicking on “Undefined” step in the workflow.
    2. Enter the recipient details in the “Recipients” box.
    3. In the subject line, enter “Carrid value entered is:” and click on “Insert Expression”.
    4. Select the element “Carrid” from the list.
    5. Similarly enter the content in the “Body” area.
    6. Save and activate the application.
    Testing the Workflow application:
    7. Test the workflow by clicking F8.
    8. Enter the value of the Carrid as shown above and press execute.
    9. A mail would be sent to the recipient mentioned earlier with the carrid value entered.
    Condition Step
    Agenda:
    This document details about the steps “Condition”.
    Pre-requisites: It is assumed that the reader of this document has a preliminary understanding of workflow and has worked with the container elements earlier. If not, please go through the first two Tutorials of workflow available in this site. (More details)
    Procedure:
    1. Create a new workflow definition.
    2. Create a container element, CARRID (as demonstrated in tutorial 2).
    3. Now click on undefined step and create the step “Condition”.
    4. Enter the step name of your choice.
    5. We would have the following condition here:
    If carrid = ‘AA’.
    Do this.
    Else.
    Do this.
    Click on “Click here to create a new condition”. Following screen appears.
    Double click on “Carrid”. Next click on “=” and enter the value “AA” in the constant field and press ENTER.
    Enter the outcome names of your choice as shown above.
    Click on “Transfer and go to graphic”.
    As shown above, there are two branches here. One navigates to true, if CARRID = ‘AA’ else the control takes the branch “False”.
    Test the above scenario by inserting mail steps in the above 2 branches and by passing different CARRID values.
    Condition Step
    Agenda:
    This document details about the steps “Multiple Condition”.
    Pre-requisites: It is assumed that the reader of this document has a preliminary understanding of workflow and has worked with the container elements earlier. If not, please go through the first two Tutorials of workflow available in this site. (More details)
    Procedure:
    1. Create a new workflow definition.
    2. Create a container element, CARRID (as demonstrated in tutorial 2).
    3. Now click on undefined step and create the step “Multiple Condition”.
    4. Enter the step name of your choice.
    5. We would have the following condition here:
    If carrid = ‘AA’.
    Do this.
    Elseif carrid = ‘AH’
    DO this.
    Elseif carrid = ‘SQ’
    Do this.
    Else.
    Do this.
    Select the “CARRID” using the F4 help for the comparison basis field.
    Enter the values of the carrid under the Comparison values with the corresponding outcome name (of your choice)
    Double click on “Carrid”. Next click on “=” and enter the value “AA” in the constant field and press ENTER.
    Click on “Transfer and go to graphic”.
    As observed above, there are different branches for each value of CARRID mentioned above.
    Test the above scenario by inserting mail steps in all the branches and by passing different CARRID values.
    Using "Container Operation" step
    Agenda: Usage of step “Container Operation”.
    Pre-requisites: It is assumed that the reader of this tutorial has worked in the concepts that are dealt in earlier tutorials. (click here for more details)
    Scenario: In this tutorial, we would deal about how to work with the step “Container Operation” with an example of calculating the available seats by subtracting occupied seats from the maximum seats at the workflow level.
    Procedure:
    1. Create a new workflow definition using the transaction SWDD.
    2. Create two container elements MaxSeats, Occ_Seats with the “import” property set. You can use the reference fields sflight-seatsmax, sflight-seatsocc for this.
    3. Create another container element AvailableSeats without setting either import or export property as this is calculated within the workflow and used within the workflow. You might use any of the above reference fields as data types.
    4. Define a new step “Container Operation” in the workflow definition by double-clicking on the “Undefined step”.
    5. In this step, we would calculate the available seats from the max seats and seats occupied.
    I would recommend entering all the container elements from the F4 help instead of typing them manually.
    6. Return to the main screen.
    7. Create a mail step after this to send the available seats information.
    8. Test the above functionality by passing some values to the maximum and the seats occupied.
    9. Result would be as follows:
    Triggering Events Programmatically
    Purpose: This document details the procedure in triggering the business object events programmatically.
    Pre-requisites: It is assumed that the reader of this document is aware of the business object concepts and good in ABAP.
    Procedure:
    In this document, we would take an example of the business object BUS1001006 (Material) and the event CREATED. In general, this event is triggered whenever a material is created using a standard procedure like MM01 or any others. Now we would trigger this event from our own programs.
    Following are the screenshots of the business object BUS1001006 and the event CREATED. Go to transaction SWO1 for more information of the business object.
    Double-clicking on the key field parameter gives you technical information of the field.
    In order to trigger an event programmatically, we would use the function module SWE_EVENT_CREATE.
    Following is the sample code to trigger the events programmatically:
    REPORT ZDEMO_TRIGGER_EVENT.
    DATA: KEY LIKE SWEINSTCOU-OBJKEY.
    KEY = '1163'. “ Material Number (hard-coded)
    CALL FUNCTION 'SWE_EVENT_CREATE'
    EXPORTING
    objtype = 'BUS1001006'
    objkey = KEY
    event = 'CREATED'
    CREATOR = ' '
    TAKE_WORKITEM_REQUESTER = ' '
    START_WITH_DELAY = ' '
    START_RECFB_SYNCHRON = ' '
    NO_COMMIT_FOR_QUEUE = ' '
    DEBUG_FLAG = ' '
    NO_LOGGING = ' '
    IDENT =
    IMPORTING
    EVENT_ID =
    TABLES
    EVENT_CONTAINER =
    EXCEPTIONS
    OBJTYPE_NOT_FOUND = 1
    OTHERS = 2
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
    WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
    ELSE.
    WRITE 'Event Triggered'.
    ENDIF.
    COMMIT WORK.
    In order to test whether the event is getting triggered or not, we can make use of Event Trace. Switch on the event trace using the transaction SWELS.
    Press ‘Switch On”.
    Now execute the program developed earlier. Now switch-off the event trace using the same transaction SWELS.
    Now go to transaction SWEL. Here you can list out the events triggered in the particular period of time. Here is the event-trace list:
    Deadline Monitoring in SAP Workflow
    A major advantage of workflow is the ability to monitor the workflow steps according to a predefined schedule. Following are different deadlines that can be monitored against each workflow step:
    • Requested Start
    • Latest Start
    • Requested End
    • Latest End
    In this example, we will define a deadline to the User Decision example created earlier (click here). Following is the screenshot of the application developed using the User Decision example:
    We would extend this example to the deadline monitoring.
    In the User Decision step, click on the “latest end” tab.
    By default, No deadline monitoring is active (as seen in the above screenshot).
    Choose the “Work Item Creation” from the list box.
    After selecting “Work Item Creation”, chose an offset of 5 minutes. This means that the work item must be executed within 5 minutes of the creation, if not this would trigger.
    Deadline Monitoring in SAP Workflow
    Enter recipient details to whom the message to be escalated, if the work item is not executed with in 5 minutes after work item creation.
    Save and activate the workflow definition.
    Testing the workflow application:
    • Execute your workflow.
    • Check for the work item in the SAP Inbox. This time do NOT execute the work item.
    • Wait for the deadline to be triggered. After that, a deadline message is delivered to the recipient mentioned in the “Latest End” tab. See the screenshot below.
    Don’t worry if the deadline message doesn’t appear immediately after 5 minutes. This depends on various factors including how the deadline monitoring program is scheduled and also on the availability of the background processors.
    Use SWWA to check how the deadline monitoring program is scheduled in program.
    For example, assume that our work item has been created at 09:10 hrs and the deadline message is expected to trigger at 09:15 hrs. From the above screenshot, it is understood that the background program is scheduled to execute for every 3 minutes. Assume that the last run of the program is at 09:14hrs and the next run is expected at 09:17hrs. So even our deadline expires at 09:15, the deadline message would appear only at 09:17hrs after execution of the background program.
    Some more points
    In our above example, we have used the deadline on the “Work Item” creation time. i.e., 5 minutes after creation time, the deadline message would be sent. Now we would check the other option “Expression”. Here we can mention the date and time, when the deadline message should appear irrespective of the work item creation date/time.
    As seen in the above screenshot, we can provide the target date and time by which the task should be finished. Container elements could be used in this case. Please refer to our example on creation of container elements (click here).
    Personal Substitute in Workflow
    Requirement: Need to have at least one substitute who can act upon work items in your absence.
    Important: The appointed substitute would be able to see all your work items. A substitute cannot be assigned for only particular area of organization or any other item. So need to ensure that the substitute have the necessary authorizations to act upon the work items.
    Procedure:
    1. Go to SAP Business Work Place (TCode: SBWP)
    2. Now from the menu bar, select Settings à Workflow settings à Maintain Substitute
    3. Highlight/Select the name on the window, in this case SAPDEV02 and click on “Create Substitute”.
    4. List of users available in the system are displayed.
    5. Select the required substitute user name. Following screen appears.
    Validity field describes about the period in which the setting would be active. Note that the dates on the screen would range from the current date to 31st Dec 9999.
    Regarding the checkbox “Substitution active”, it is advised to leave this checkbox unchecked for system performance reasons. A check in this box indicates that the substitution is “permanent” and if left unchecked it is treated as “as-needed”. A permanent substitute will automatically receive the primary users work items in their own box. In the case of “as-needed”, substitute must manually adopt the work items from the primary user’s inbox.
    6. Save the entries
    7. Click Enter to leave the screen.
    Adopting a Substitute in Workflow
    If you have been designated as an “as-needed” substitute, you must manually adopt the substitution. If you are designated as a “permanent” substitute, the work items would automatically appear in the inbox.
    Before adopting a substitution, there are 19 work items in the inbox. See the screenshot below:
    To adopt a substitution, select Settings à Workflow settings à adopt substitution.
    Select the corresponding User-id (if you have been assigned as a substitute for multiple people, then this option would allow you to select the user name of whom you would to check the work items)
    The corresponding user’s work items would appear in our inbox now.
    You can end the substitution, by selecting settings à Workflow settings à End substitution.
    Note: Substitutes can only adopt work items that are directly routed to the person for whom they are a substitute. If you are a substitute for a user (SAPDEV02) who has been made a substitute for another user (SAPDEV01), you will only see work items for user SAPDEV02 and not of the user SAPDEV01.
    Notification of Work Items via e-Mail
    SAP provides us with a facility of notifying the user via the email address of your choice when there are any pending work items in the SAP Inbox..
    1. Go to Transaction SO13.
    2. Click on Automatic Forwarding tab.
    3. Click on Create icon .
    4. Enter the details in the above screen.
    5. Click ENTER to complete the entries.
    6. Now the notification would be received at the provided email address if there are any pending work items in the inbox.
    Filtering the Work Items in the SAP Inbox using BADI
    This document details about the procedure in filtering some of the work items from the SAP inbox using a BADi.
    Following is the screenshot of the SAP inbox, before implementing BADi:
    The BADi that is used in filtering the work items is WF_BWP_SELECT_FILTER. To implement the BADi, go to transaction SE18. From the menu, select Implementation à Create. (See the screenshot below)
    Enter the implementation name and press ENTER
    Enter any meaningful short text for the implementation and click on the tab “Interface”
    The implementing class, ZCL_IM_BWP_SELECT_FILTER, is automatically proposed. Double click on the implementing class name.
    You are now navigated to the class builder. Now double-click on the method name shown on the screen (see the snapshot below)
    Now let us filter out the work items belonging to the task TS2000066. See the code below:
    Activate the method and also the implementation. In the state of active, you wouldn’t be able to make any changes. To make any changes, we need to deactivate it and then make the changes.
    Now check the inbox and would notice that the work items related to that task are no more appearing.
    To notice the differences, try activating and deactivating the BADi implementation.

  • Integration documentation for sap sd with fico and mm

    hi Sappers,
    I need Documentation for SAP SD with FICO and MM Module
    its very urgent.
    mail id : [email protected]

    <b>Some basic information :</b>
    FI-MM: The integration between FI-MM happens in T-code: <b>OBYC</b>
      1. When PO is created :
    No Entry -
      2. When GR is posted 
          Inventory Account dr (Transaction Key BSX in OBYC)
                To GRIR account (T.Key WRX in T-code OBYC)
      3. When Invoice is posted
          GRIR account Dr.
          Vendor account  Cr.
      4. Payment made to Vendor
          Vendor A/c Dr
                To Bank Clearing A/c Cr.
    Points to know : Movement Types, Assignment of Movement types to T-keys (T-code OMJJ), Value string (I also need some information on this) , OMWN and OMWB transactions. 
    There is a close integration b/w FI & MM, actually document flows from MM to FI in the following areas such as,
    <u> 1. Movement Types:</u>
    Used to enable the system to find the predefined posting rules determining how the accounts of financial accounting system are to be posted & to update the stock fields in the matrl master data.(Goods Receipt, Goods Issue, etc)
    <u> 2. Valuation Class:</u>

  • Authorization restriction for BP transaction

    Hi,
    We need to restrict the BP transaction access to user in the below mentioned way in our SRM system.
    1. Restricting BP access to all the users with display access.
    2. Restricting BP access to security users with create, change and display access.
    What is the main object for BP transaction for restricting access in the above mentioned scenarios?
    Here, we have observed one more issue like....
    Let say object-B_BUPR_BZT(not sure) is a main object for transaction-BP. If we restrict activity to 03 in that object, it will give display access when we are executing transaction-BP.
    Some of other transactions(like PPOMA_BBP) are there in SRM, those are also maintaining same object with all activities(create,change,Display).
    In this scenarios, how the above mentioned restriction is going to help the user.
    Please check and advice in this.
    Thanks & Regards,
    KKRao.

    > Let say object-B_BUPR_BZT(not sure) is a main object for transaction-BP.
    It may be a "main object" for BP, but that doesn't tell you much at all about the security aspects or where in the logic of the transaction it is used. This object is for example not a part of the business logic of transaction SE80, or that I am sure.
    If you have no clue, then start in SU21 and read the application help documentation on the transaction (to understand it's context) and the use-cases of the object - also to find the other transactions. Then you will become more sure.
    You also need to understand that in the same way the transactions, reports and the "real checks" are layers in the security, objects themselves can also be selective and layered in a conceptually consistent way, or (to make it more interesting...) transaction dependently.
    There are lots of shortcuts (even out-of-the-box roles which someone might try to sell you...) but ultimately if you use a SAP system to "build" your business processes, then you need a concept to secure your build. SAP owns the authority-checks in standard programs to enable the process to comply with legal requirements and some common sense.
    => So, you need to choose your transaction (or other entry point) carefully and understand the objects which they use.
    Cheers,
