Doubt in Generating Function!!!!!:(

Hi All,
It is said that
"A target field with maxOccurs=<n> that is assigned a generating function is generated <n> times in the target structure. if maxOccurs=unbounded for the target field, then exactly 5 target field are created".
But if we have done Message Mapping, we could realise that this statement does not hold.
Could anyone please help me out by explaining what this statement actually means.
Regards,
Sundar.

Hi,
Are you sure it is said like that?
Because in help.sap it says
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e4/82cf0ec8b9494db92e27e2be69524f/frameset.htm
+If generating functions are assigned to a target field, the attributes minOccurs and maxOccurs determine how frequently a value is generated:
If minOccurs = 0 the value of the function is generated once.
· Otherwise, the value of the function is generated as often as is specified by minOccurs.
( This applies regardless of the value set in maxOccurs. Even if maxOccurs = unbounded, the mapping runtime will still only generate the value as often as is specified by minOccurs.)+

MDX + Generate function

Hi all,
I have query below which works and I understand the output. However, if I remove the Generate I also get the top 5 products per country, descending order, but the Order amounts or not the same and thus not correct.
My question, what does the generate actually do to make it a different output?
WITH SET [5MostInternetOrderedProductsByCountry] AS
GENERATE([Customer].[Customer Geography].[Country].Members,
CROSSJOIN([Customer].[Customer Geography].CurrentMember,
HEAD(
ORDER([Product].[Product].[Product].Members,
[Measures].[Internet Order Count],BDESC),
5)
SELECT
{[Measures].[Internet Order Count]} ON COLUMNS,
{[5MostInternetOrderedProductsByCountry]} ON ROWS
FROM
[Adventure Works]
Thanks in advance for helping!

Hi,
Generate( Set_Expression1 , Set_Expression2 [ , ALL ] )
Applies a set to each member of another set, and then joins the resulting sets by union.
If a second set is specified, the Generate function returns a set generated by applying the tuples in the second set to each tuple in the first set, and then joining the resulting sets by union. If
ALL is specified, the function retains duplicates in the resulting set.

Difference between Generic and Generating functions

Hi,
Can any body explain me the difference between Generic and Generating functions? Do also let me kwno which Standard functions are Genereic and which are Generating/
Regards,
Pranshu

Hi Pranshu,
All functions (regardless of whether they are standard or user-defined functions) that do not have input values are refered to as Generating Functions (Constant, Sender, Receiver and CopyValue() are generating functions). All other functions are generic.
So, the standard XI functions can be generic or generating.
Hope this helps

Difference between Generating Function, Generic Function, Conversion func

Difference between Generating Function, Generic Function, Conversion function?

Hi,
Generating functions are those functions which do not fetch any values from the source message,but generate target message based upon some conditions.All functions(regardless of whether Used Defined or standard) which do not take any values are called generating functions.functions of the Constant function category(e.g.constant,copyvalue,sender,receiver) are generating functions.
conversion is used to convert the data from one format to the other.
for ex: we use the FCC parameters to get the desired solutions .
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/43/4c38c4cf105f85e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm
SAP conversion agent it a tool that helps to convert unstructured data
(like EDI messages, work files, pdf files etc) into XI (or from XI)
you just use an IDE to develop the program that you can later on
put inside the adapter module (for fiel adapter for example)
so no programming (as it's drag and drop)
for many documents
generic function?
All functions (regardless of whether they are standard or user-defined functions) that do not have input values are refered to as Generating Functions (Constant, Sender, Receiver and CopyValue() are generating functions).

Table Maintenance Generator - Function Group regeneration issue

I have table maintenance genertor in a function group that contains lot of tables . I by mistable regenerate the whole function group using table mainteance generator.
Now i want to check which of the programs changed during the regenerator. I am looking for some sap table that contains all the changed objects and their transport number.
Please rememebr i have still not released the transport,
I have checked E071, E071, VRSD . That contains the entry for function group and does not contains the programs inside the function group changed
Thanks
a®

Thomas,
Thanks for your reply. Currently I don't want to release the transport.
Is there any table i can check which are programs changed without releasing transport

Doubt in update function module

dear friends..
i have created an UPDATE function module with Processing type- Update Module, Start Immediate. i have handled the exceptions using Raise statement in the function module..
the call function looks as..
CALL FUNCTION 'ZFI_LCTXN_TABLES_UPDATE'
    in update task
    EXPORTING
      ZLCTMB1 = p_lctmb1
      NU_ENTRY = p_global-ins_zlctmb1
    TABLES

      UPD_SH   = UPD_SH
    EXCEPTIONS
      ERROR    = 1
      OTHERS   = 2.
p_subrc = sy-subrc.
commit work.
but if the update fails, and even though the RAISE ERROR works, and update termination message is registered in SM13, i dont get the value for sy-subrc as 1 .
is it the right way..if yes please tell me how to generate an error message within the transaction..so that the user knows the update has failed..
thank you for your time
Nivin

Hi,
Maybe it's usefull for you.
<b>
IF sy-subrc EQ 4.

Doubt in keyPressed() function!

Hi to all,
Im doing project in J2ME. In my source code, i used keyPressed() function to get the user's choice by using switch case.Now my doubt is, should i use one more keyPressed() function in inside my previous keyPressed() func.(i.e. nested keypressed() func)?.. For eg: In my application, there will be four choices.. 1.Cars 2. Bikes 3.Mobiles 4.exit...If an user press the key '3' means, i need to giv him one more choice screen like 1.Nokia 2.Sony ericsson 3.Motorola.. If an user press '2' means, have to display the info about sony ericsson...Right now im using code like the following:
public void keyPressed(int key)
switch(key)
case KEY_NUM1:
break;
case KEY_NUM2:
break;
case KEY_NUM3:
break;
case KEY_NUM4:
break;
Now my doubt is....Should i use like the following:
public void keyPressed(int key)
switch(key)
case KEY_NUM1:
break;
case KEY_NUM2:
break;
case KEY_NUM3:
public void keyPressed(int key)
switch(key)
case KEY_NUM1:
break;
case KEY_NUM2:
break;
case KEY_NUM3:
break;
case KEY_NUM4:
break;
break;
case KEY_NUM4:
break;

Doubt in using :Function Module : MS_CONVERT_TO_OTHER_CURRENCY

Hi ,.
In the Function Module :MS_CONVERT_TO_OTHER_CURRENCY.
I have to export following parametes:
DATE
FROM_CURRENCY
FROM_AMOUNT
TO_CURRENCY
COMPANY_CURRENCY
RATE (optional)    .
Here my doubt is :what is the purpose of COMPANY_CURRENCY .What value i have to populate here , how i have to find the company currency?
I think we have to find this COMPANY_CURRENCY based on the sales organization.
Please update me regarding this COMPANY_CURRENCY .
Thanks,

Have you tried using 'CONVERT_TO_FOREIGN_CURRENCY' instead?
DATA: v_amount TYPE p DECIMALS 2.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_TO_FOREIGN_CURRENCY'

Call Function not Generating Function Module for Smartform

Hi Gurus,
We have a work copy print program use to print deliveries (smartforms). This program works fine in Production but right now we are doing some testing and I found out that when we run this program in QUALITY environtment, it shortdumps with error saying "Function Module Not Found"
Basically when it gets to the Function Module "SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME", it could not generate any function module for the form it Sy-Subrc = 2 Exception meaning NO_FUNCTION_MODULE.
The problem is this only happens in our QUALITY environment.I compare the function module in the 2 systems, there was not diff as this is a Standard SAP module. I passed diff smartforms we have in QUALITY through the FM and it will not generating any FM for any of them. So this is not an error from the smartforms, bcos all the same smartforms generates FM in Prod.
So what I did next is to Debug the FM "SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME" in the 2 systems to see where the diff is coming from. I noticed 2 views that the FM is using, they are STXFADM and D010SINF . So on the Production system, STXFADM-LASTDATE and D010SINF-UDAT fields are the same value, so it generates the FM. On the QUALITY systems, the values are different hence it skips the code to generate the FM.
Thanks Guys.
Points will greatly be awarded for this.

Please guys, help me look into this, I really need a solution fast.
Thanks

Error generating Function Module 'TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP'

Can you please tell me how to execute the FM.
Thanks & Regards,
Vivek Agarwal

Hello...
               Iam sending a sample code.
               Hope it will helps U how to deal with FM : TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP.
TYPE-POOLS : TRUXS.
TYPES : BEGIN OF TY_TAB,
         F1(10) TYPE C,
         F2(10) TYPE C,
         F3(10) TYPE C,
        END OF TY_TAB.

       LT_TAB LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF WA_TAB.
DATA : I_TAB_RAW_DATA TYPE TRUXS_T_TEXT_DATA.
DATA : FNAM TYPE IBIPPARMS-PATH.
PARAMETER : P_FNAM TYPE RLGRAP-FILENAME.

TABLES
    I_TAB_CONVERTED_DATA       = LT_TAB.
LOOP AT LT_TAB INTO WA_TAB.
WRITE :/ WA_TAB-F1, WA_TAB-F2.
ENDLOOP.
But my suggestion is why cant you use FM : ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE
instead of TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP.
The performance can be improved much by ALSM... FM.
Thanks and Regards

Doubt in Analytical Functions

Hi,
I am new to oracle , i have a doubt : I have written a query using analytical functions to get the desired , but i wanted the same in a normal query .
INPUT TABLE :
NAME AMOUNT
A 100
A 200
A 300
B 200
B 300
C 300
Query : SELECT name,AMOUNT,ROW_NUMBER( ) OVER (PARTITION BY name order by name NULLS LAST) SRLNO
FROM data ORDER BY name, SRLNO;
output table:
NAME AMOUNT SRLNO
A 100 1
A 200 2
A 300 3
B 200 1
B 300 2
C 300 1
QUESTION: I wanted the same output table with normal SQL quey , but i don't want to use any partition statement here (nor any analytical functions) .
Please provide solution for this .

i don't want to use any partition statement here (nor any analytical functions) .Why not? What you want to do is what analytics does. I get suspicious when anybody - but especially somebody who's new to Oracle - aks how to do something different from using the built-ins provided by Oracle.
I wanted the same output table with normal SQL queySo you're ruling out Pipelined functions and MODEL clauses? Or not?

Doubt in enqueue_array functionality

Hi,
I am using enqueue_array function to insert multiple rows in the queue. Payload type is user defined object (obj) containing one attribute: JMS Message. If I create a type (tbl) which is table of obj at the schema level then enqueue_array works perfectly and inserts all the rows into the queue.
But If I don't declare a type at the schema level and instead declare it in the pl/sql block, then enque_array function doesn't work. I don't get any error but no row gets inserted in the queue.
My doubt is why no row is getting inserted in the 2nd case? Does Oracle treats the 2 types in different ways? Please clarify. Thank you.

Generating function in for loop

I am generating a function sin[2*pi(24MHz + f)] - sin[24MHz]. The 'f' has to vary from -2MHz to 2MHz. I have to add the output of this loop with another 24MHz sine wave input. I have attached the code, please let me know whether what has been done is right or no.

No, you code makes no sense. You simply get an array of 10 identical values, because nothing changes as a function if iteration count.

I don't understand your formula, e.g. what is "sin[24MHz]"? Just a constant?
Is the solution 1D (y vs. f) or 2D (e.g. y vs. (f,t))?
Can you point to a web site that describes the math?
