DTP cannot be changed or activated
We have transported a DTP process to the pre-prod envirnoment. When we attempt to make changes to the DTP we receive the following error first "Changes to Repository or cross-client Customizing are not permitted" and second error is "Data transfer process DTP_4CBJGH6DNBORCGW44A6Y7RL0T cannot be changed or activated"
The goal is to change the filter values within the DTP. We have all the appropriate and necessary BI 7.0 authorization objects set.
SE06 --> System Change option --> Client Setting
Double click on the client (example 100)
Select "Changes without automatic Recording" under 'Changes and transports for client-specific objects' tab and
select "chnages to repository and cross-client customizing allowed" under 'Cross-client object changes'.
The above procedure OPEN the system for changes.
Once u r done with ur DTP changes, reset above setting back to original.

I have tried connection test from SM59 and there seems to be no problem.
How do I resolve this?
thanksGoto RSA1 --> Source System --> right click --> Check.
Is it giving any error?
You can click on restore also and check if anything improves.
Also check whether datasource and transformation is active.

Hello,
I am running Service Manager 2012 with the Exchange Connector 3.0 RTM (Re-release Version). The issue I have is that when an e-mail is processed that is trying to update the status or event log of an incident, the Exchange Connector encounters an error
and will not update the object. The Operations Manager log denotes:
Exchange Connector: Unable to process mail item. Subject="Close Ticket: [IRXXXXX]", Error Message=The key value of an object cannot be changed.
This will happen on a seemingly random selection of Incident work items. I cannot correlate them with a specific template, exchange connector, or incident tier queue that could be causing the issue. I can recreate the way a specific ticket
was created and update it through e-mail without issue, and the next ticket can cause the error to trigger.
I have already opened a Microsoft Support Case using our Software Assurance agreement. After a few months of troubleshooting the issue and trying different fixes, Microsoft support said they were unable to fix the problem and that we would need to
purchase Premier support to go further. At this point I thought I would reach out to the community for ideas.
The setup I have for the Exchange connectors is as follows.
I have three separate Exchange connectors set up to three different mailboxes. One Exchange connector processes external support tickets and applies a specific template. Another processes client support tickets and applies a different template.
And the last Exchange connector processes internal tickets and also processes the updates of tickets created by the other two exchange connectors.
Here are the fixes I've attempted so far:
1. Changed the templates that each Exchange connector applies.
2. Changed the management pack that each template is stored in.
3. Checked my management pack(s) for extended classes by searching for Extension="true" (This was also checked by Microsoft support)
4. Deleted each Exchange connector and recreated each connector
5. Deleted each Exchange connector, deleted the management pack, and reinstalled the management pack and connectors
6. Repeated Step 5, deleted Microsoft.SystemCenter.ExchangeConnector.dll and Microsoft.SystemCenter.ExchangeConnector.resources.dll and then installed the Exchange connector Re-release version 3.0 Published 10/7/2013 (which is supposed to address this
issue)
7. Deleted the HealthServiceState folder and restarted the Management Service
I'm not really sure what to do at this point. I've put many hours into customizing my installation to get it working for my organization so reformatting and starting from scratch would be a nightmare scenario. This environment is in production.
I do have a band-aid in place using Orchestrator. Basically I have a monitor task searching for the error message and when it finds one it searches the mailbox for the offending e-mail and applies either the Resolve or Close status change that is requested
from the user. However, I do not have it working to update the ticket if a comment is applied to the incident. If anyone is in this position and needs to know how to apply this Orchestrator task I am willing to provide my workflow.
I am new to the community and am already impressed with the amount of help and effort there is in this forum. I appreciate in advance any help that is provided and am open to any ideas at this point. I can post more information as needed.
Thank you,
JohnYes that is the whole template. However, I did confirm that this is only happening to incidents where either of two situations triggers a runbook to fire and modify the incident. When I remove the activity from the incident it does clear the
issue. For some background the first Runbook Activity set's the first response date when an incident is resolved if the first response value is null. The second assigns the incident to a user upon creation if the title contains assignto:username;

Hello dmken,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone. It sounds like your reactivate iMessage.
I recommend signing out of your Apple ID, and then turning iMessage and FaceTime off.
To sign out of your Apple ID
Go to Settings > FaceTime, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out.
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out.
Next, restart your iPhone, and then enable iMessage and FaceTime and sign back in. You can find more information at the following link:

PR00 cannot be changed on header level
Hi All,
I activated the "header condition" flag of the condition type "PR00". And the manual entries flag of PR00 is marked as "C" (Manual entry has priority) But when I created a sales order, the PR00 still cannot be changed. Anyboday knows about the reason? PR00 is now changeable on item level.
Thanks
JeromeHi,
I think you agree that that the PR00 condition at header level is a collection of all the line items.We are maintaining the condition record for the articles in the condition record.Which are at line item level.PR00 at header level includes the toatsl of all line items PR00.
In case if you want to give total net order value HM00 condition type

Delta DTP cannot currently be deleted (see long text)
I deleted all the requests..actually there is no data in the write DSO and I have not loaded the cube...I want to delete the DTP and create a new one.
Delta DTP cannot currently be deleted (see long text)
Message no. RSBK037
Diagnosis
You want to delete a delta DTP that has been successfully used to load requests from the source into the target. If you delete the DTP, you will also delete the information on the source data that was successfully transferred. As a result the source data would be transferred again, if you create a new delta DTP that links the same source with the same target.
System Response
The system terminated the delete operation.
Procedure
You have two options:
1. Delete all the requests loaded with this DTP from the target and then delete the DTP.
2. Do not delete the DTP and continue to load deltas using this DTP.That depends is your prod system open to create Infopackages & DTP if so you can do that..but this may require a change in the Process Chain as well to change the DTP if at all a process chain exists for the same.

Generated analysis authorization cannot be changed
Hello all,
did someone manage to edit/delete generated (from DSO) analysis authorizations? When I want to correct a typo in one of the generated analysis authorizations it is not possible although the system is telling that it should be possible to do so. I did not find any note or thread yet.
Message number RSEC292:

Hello Ms. ,
I always was telling about one issue:
Change of generated analysis authorization is not possible.
Since BI 7.0 we are talking about analysis authorizations so the
transaction code used is obvious.
There is no need for furhter information because it is only this single
issue: I guess that it should be an error message and not a warning
message and SAP made a mistake here by using the wron message category.
I was never talking about users and xxxxxx is not an user but an
analysis authorization.
Please consider the call a solved - in the meantime I got
professional support from the SDN platform.

05.07.2007 - 09:14:22 CET SAP Antwort
Hello Ms King,
I must say that I find this message quite incomprehensible. First you
write that you are irritated because my colleague asked you which
transaction is being used to generate authorizations. This information
is necessary so that the message can be assigned to the appropriate
area. Indeed, the message was incorrectly sent to BC-SEC. Next you
write that you are angry when I give you a consulting note regarding
generation of analysis authorizations. I am mystified as to how such
information from customers should help us in solving a technical or
procedural probem. I have read the message from the beginning and
there is very little technical and procedural information. Moreover, itis not clear what the "error" is here. The message RSEC292 is a warning(as clearly stated in the long text of the message) and this should not
hinder the process. Lastly, in your last info you refer to a specific
user, xxxxxxxx, as an example of a generated authorization. This is
separate issue than the original:
It is not possible to change from DSOs generated analysis
authorizations although the system is telling that it should be
possible to do so. Authorizations are sufficient (SU53; SAP_ALL)
So in response to the original inquiry regarding RSEC292. The answer,
as I have already mentioned and as stated in the text, is that this
is just for information purposes. Please continue with the process.
If you have a separate inquiry regarding the authorizations of
particular users, please open a second message. We request that
customer log one issue per message. Please read note 375196:
Separate message for new problem/subsequent problem

Your question is a little bit irritating. Generation of analysis

Error "InfoProvider was changed or activated at runtime" when refreshing WB
Hello SAP gurus!
Here's tricky case: we've got several workbooks with multiple queries in it based on one MP. After reactivating this MP in production, those workbooks began to fail with error "InfoProvider was changed or activated at runtime".
Wierd thing is, that I can refresh each query separately, and I can refresh workbooks with only one query on that MP,
I can execute queties in Web on this MP, - but I cannot refresh whole WBs with multile queries. This issue does not allow us using broadcasting, so it's a serious problem fo us.
We're on SAP GUI 7.10 and 7.20 ( same error in both versons ). MP is checked to be active. RSRV for those queries doesn't show any errors.
Please, if you have any hint what's happening, that would be really appreciated!
Thanks guys,
DaniilHello Michael!
thanks for your input! I've had similar idea, but I consider it as a final option. Our landscape and authorization policy does not allow to make changes in production systems directly, so we'll have to transport MP from development system, which is not easy due to lots of approvals I need to get, and no garantee that it'll work as we still don't know the root cause.
I would really appreciate any input regarding ideas what can be the cause or how to fix it without reactivating MP in prod.
Many thanks in advance! -
Message : Event package cannot be changed; bookings already

Event is not created for this event package and i wander this is new function in EP3 that i have to override
or just program error.
regards,
jin dalJin dal,
System is using view table V_PIQMODBOOKED to check no of booking.
Check is there any active booking record exists for that event package? Which make sense because first you build event plan (event and event package) then you allow students to book.

The item contains one or more busy items that cannot be changed
We have a Windows 2003 file server and we are having issues with Macs retrieving files/folders from it. There is a folder on the Windows share named "dropbin" that UserA has full permissions on. UserB has the following NTFS permissions on the dropbin folder.
Traverse Folder / Execute File Allow
List Folder / Read Data Allow
Create Files / Write Data Allow
Create Folders / Append Data Allow
Write Attributes Allow
Write Extended Attributes Allow
This gives UserB the ability to look inside the dropbin folder and place content in there. This same user cannot delete or pull down anything that a different user (UserC) has put in there. UserA (the person with full permissions) should be able to pull down anything put in there.
This works fine from an XP box if an XP user (UserB) puts content in there UserA from a Mac or a PC can get and manipulate the data. If a Mac user (UserB) puts a file up there (it seems to happen with a .txt file, a .cp file, or a .zip file) UserA from a Mac gets the following error when trying to download the file:
"You may need to enter the name and password for an administrator on this computer to change the item named item.txt"
When you hit continue you get the following error:
"The item item.txt contains one or more busy items that cannot be changed"
If you proceed to enter in the admin credentials, the file doesn't copy down to the local Mac and fails without an error.
A couple of things we noticed....
1. If Mac UserB puts up a Word document or a .dmg file then UserA from a Mac can pull it down fine without errors.
2. On the Windows 2003 server we noticed that for each file we tried to upload it creates a ._ corresponding hidden file. For example, item.txt also has ._item.txt. If we go up on the server and remove the hidden file, Mac UserA can pull down the file fine.
3. We tried zipping the files (or files and folders) locally on Mac UserB's desktop then putting the .zip file up there but since it creates a ._file.zip Mac UserA still can't pull it down.
4. The fix we found for this is to have Mac UserB place the files they want to upload into a folder on the desktop, then upload that folder. When Mac UserA comes by they can pull down that folder's worth of stuff.
We are accessing the Windows 2003 file share by going to the finder and using the "Go" menu and entering in:
smb://servername/sharename
and they use their Windows domain credentials to log in.We may have figured this out but it requires some more testing. The reason why the file upload creates the ._ files in the dropbin folder when UserB puts content in there is because UserB does not have the "Delete" permission in that folder. My guess is that it creates the ._ file when the file is in transit but then deletes that file after it has completed the transfer (but without the delete permission it couldn't remove the ._ file). What we did was added another user to the NTFS permissions for that folder, we added the built in "CREATOR OWNER" account and gave that user the "Delete" permission, now the ._ files do not appear under there and UserA can come along and manage the uploaded file okay.
Hope this helps someone else out. -
One or more busy items cannot be changed
I've dragged songs out of iTunes to a folder on the desktop, dragging this folder to my external HD the message "the item "..." contains one or more busy items that cannot be changed" comes up. The permissions for this folder are read and write so not sure what else to do. I've done this before and had no problems...
I finally sorted out a similar problem.
Discover which files are involved by copying the *contents* of the source folder to a destination.
The offending folder (or folders) should display by name. If the item is a file, the file name should display. You can drill down within a folder by the same process: copy the contents (not the entire folder) to a destination, to find the offending folder or item.
I ran across and old (2002) posting which mentioned file type as preventing deletion:
http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20020920055805577
I found an old application which can display file creator and type on OS X:
http://www.frederikseiffert.de/filetype/
How old is it? The System Requirements are:
"FileType runs on Mac OS X v10.0 or later and on Mac OS 8.6 or later with CarbonLib 1.3."
It runs on 10.4. Haven't tested anything later.
I discovered that the file types on the offending files were "brok". It so happens they were all tiffs, so I changed them to "TIFF". I still got a message about needing to enter an admin user and password, but the copy then worked. -
I am trying to authorize my computer and I get an error message: The required directory was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permissions cannot be changed. Help?
I used Terminal to change the permissions on the folder in question. I followed the instructions in this article:
iTunes: Missing folder or incorrect permissions may prevent authorization
In my case, the folder was there, so I needed the command to change permissions on the folder, not to create one. I was hesitant to use Terminal b/c I know that if I made an error I could wipe out my hard drive or render my computer unusable. So to be SURE I didn't make an error, I carefully copied the command from that page and *pasted* it into Terminal. Also, before I could do anything in Terminal, I had to go change my admin password (it had been a blank password before and that's not acceptable for making changes in Terminal). I was just super careful when entering my password or doing anything else while Terminal was open (making sure I didn't accidently hit the spacebar or another key, etc.) And it fixed the problem right away.
What was confusing for me was that the iTunes error message said to change permissions in the FINDER, which is what I was trying to do. It didn't mention Terminal. What would really be helpful is if Apple included a link to a page like this in their error message.
