E-Recruiting : Urgent!!! International assignment ;object type CP

Dear Experts,
1)Can someone please properly explain the concept of International assignment? How is this related to the object type CP from object P?
2)Secondly, when running the report HRALXSYNC to transfer the employees from PA to eRecruiting tables, is there anything in specific that we need to take care with respect to international assignments? If there are 2 pernrs existing for an employee,which record will be transferred to the eRecruiting tables?
(we have an integrated implementation scenario with ERec 603 in the same system as ECC 6.0)
3)Is there any other way of creating users for employees enmasse in an integrated scenario implementation apart from the execution of report HRALXSYNC?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Sowmya

Refer to the link to understand the scenario of candidate and Person.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/72/c9b54015c4752ae10000000a155106/frameset.htm
The purpose of each is that
When hralxsync is run for a given person a user is created EE(pernrno) is the user id. for this user we have a BP created which stores the address and personal data of the employee.
BP is the transaction to see the details.
And an NA candidate is created you can see this in table HRP5102.
CP links all of them.
you can see this relationship from hrp1001.
If there are different pernr then their personal and address data is the same there fore CP will link to multiple pernr and there will be one BP.
I am not sure about NA and User that you will have to try it on the server.

Divya

thanx in advance

Hi,
There is an standard object BUS2105 to for the mass maintanance purpose.
You can directly go to MASS transaction and give the object type BUS2105 at the intial selection screen and don't mention any variant name.Execute it and displays the next screeen whereas you have the option to select the field you want and execute it again.Go to the next screen and specify the PR number range and specify the new value for the mass maintanace.After that you got to select the push button 'Carry out a mass change'.
I hope this would help you.
Thank you.

Assigned Object text not displayed in Multi-Level Notification Lists (QM19)

Hello Everyone !
Today, i would like to share an issue I am facing in regards to Assigned objects in QM notifications.
We are using Assigned objects functionality available in Enterprise Extension PLM, Enhancement Package 4 (EA-PLM 604), to link inspection lots to notification items. Assigned object type Inspection lot is provided in standard by SAP.
All necessary configuration has been done and inspection lots are correctly linked. When we run Multi-level notification list (QM19) to display the details of notifications in a tree view with assigned objects, all information is coming except object text. In this case inspection lot text. The field is available in the structure but comes blank despite being filled in the lot.
I would like to know if anyone has encountered such issue and how did you solve it.
System info:
EHP7 for SAP ERP 6.0
Thank you.
Ayoub.

Hello Everyone !,
After checking, looks like this is a missing code in standard SAP implementation for Assigned objects.
This will be solved by small ABAP code.
Thank you

Assigning Filter Object Type for Internal Order

Hi All,
I have a requirement to send a INTERNAL_ORDER IDOC to another system on creation or on change of an order. I have created the model view and added the BAPI InternalOrder.SaveReplica in the distribution model (BD64) and the next step was for me to add a filter. I tried creating a filter group but then I get the message "Select node:Content-dependent parameter filtering". I have done a similar configuration for PROJECT idoc before and I was able to solve this by configuring in BD95 - Defining the filter object type and then BD81 - Assigning the filter object type to the parameter. However now when I try and implement the same steps for the Internal Order IDOC, I am having trouble assigning a filter object type to a parameter. I want to filter by company code and so far I was able to define the filter object type (BUKRS) in BD95 and then when I go on to try and assign this to the BAPI Parameter in BD81 , only 1 parameter appears (objectstatus) when I drop down for the parameter options.
The row entry that I am trying to add is:
Obj. Type
Method
Filter object type
Parameter
Field Name
BUS2075
SAVEREPLICA
BUKRS
MASTERDATA
COMP_CODE
But only OBJECTSTATUS appears in the Parameter block as an option when I press F4.
Further more when I try save the entry as above, I get an error. Error Message: "Entry MASTERDATA does not exist in (check entry)"
Can I please get some guidance on how to filter the internal order by company code or more importantly advise on which step I may have skipped in order have “MASTERDATA” appear as an option for Parameter field in BD81.
Thank you.

Assign value to Object type variable

CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE emp AS OBJECT (
empid NUMBER,
age NUMBER,
dob date);
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE emp _tab AS TABLE OF emp;
Pls hlep me assign value to the object type variable in loop..(assume there is 5 10 records in emp table)
declare
v_emp_tt emp _tab ;
begin
for i in (select empid ,age ,dob from emp ) Loop
v_emp_tt := i.empid; --this is wrong pls help me correct it.
end loop;
end;
thanks,

I would keep the type/object naming convention distinct from the table name.
In terms of assignment:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE to_emp AS OBJECT
(empid NUMBER,
age NUMBER,
dob date);
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE tt_emp AS TABLE OF emp;
declare
v_emp tt_emp;
begin
select to_emp_obj(emp_id, age, dob)
bulk collect into v_emp
from emp;
end;

No POWL object types are assigned to you. Please inform your system admin

Hi experts,
We are on SRM 7.0 and ECC 6.0.
We are using netweaver 7.0 (SP7) for our portal instance. SSO, UWL etc have been configured in the Portal.
Now when the user logs in to create a shopping cart and clicks on the Employee Self Service link, he gets the following error:
"No POWL object types are assigned to you. Please inform your system adminstrator"
What could be the resolution for this?
Regards

Hi Jay,
Thanks for the update.
There were 2 roles for employee in portal. I changed the role. The one with details pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/specialist/com.sap.pct.srm.srm70/com.sap.pct.srm.core.fl_core/com.sap.pct.srm.core.fl_roles/com.sap.pct.srm.core.ro_employeeselfservice worked.
I did not have to maintain the settings for 'Defining query visibilty at role level'.
However now once the shopping cart has been ordered, I come back to check it's status under the ESS link, I see that it is awaiting approval, but when I try to open the SC, it does not open.
Also I am unable to open the SC if I search it under 'Advanced Search'.
Any inputs on what could be the reason?

Assign Object to Class Type 026

Dear Gurus,
How can I assign objects to 026 type class ? because I tried CL2* transactions and all disallow me from accessing this 026 type class.
Thank you.

Hi Kent,
Class 026 is a reserved class for goods group ... look at Transaction WG21-Environment for hierarchy (we have a german system, so i don't know the correct items in the english menue).

In Request type, what is the difference between action 'Change user' and 'Assign object'

Dear All,
I have used only 'Assign Object' for my 'Change User' request type. But the standard request type has 'Change user'. So, could you suggest , what additional purpose does Change Object serve
Regards
Plaban

HI Plaban
not sure if you answered your own question here?
Change User - by itself would allow update of address data, user parameters, defaults, etc
Assign Object - as you mentioned roles and profiles.
However, if assigning, I think you need to have both actions: change and assign
I recall (ages ago) that change was only the user details and not the role or profiles. As a result, there were a few threads where people had to update the action for the request type of provisioning would not occur.
This is something you could test

Colleen

Enter a true account assignment object with revenues while reversing FB08

Hi All
When I am reversing the document through FB08 I am getting the warning messege "Enter a true account assignment object with revenues"
Message no. KI166
Diagnosis
You made an account assignment for 31211100, a revenue element, in controlling area 1000 to a cost center or profit center.
System Response
Cost centers and profit centers can carry revenues in the SAP system as statistics only. To ensure reconciliation between FI and CO for revenue element 31211100, a CO account assignment object must record the revenues as a real value. This object type is used for updating to the reconciliation ledger.
In principle, it is possible for the SAP system to automatically derive this CO account assignment object, the reconciliation object. However, all postings made in CO for costing-based Profitability Analysis are logged in the reconciliation ledger under "reconciliation object". In this manner, the reconciliation ledger identifies the exact values flowing into the operating profit. If you post reconciliation objects during revenue postings to cost centers or profit centers, you must do so while keeping the interpretation of the reconciliation ledger reports in mind. The sums of revenue postings to profitability segments, cost centers, and profit centers cannot be broken down further.
Procedure
To avoid posting to reconciliation objects, make account assignments to a real CO account assignment object.
If you want to post to reconciliation objects, you can change this message to a warning or a note for future users, or deactivate the message entirely. Use the Implementation Guide under "Controlling: General" and choose Change message control. Enter area KI and message number 166. If you do not enter an individual user here, the change is valid for all users.
It is not allowing me to reverse the document already posted.
Please guide
Thanks in Advance
Sonal

Hi,
Do you have this cost element maintained in OKB9 with a reference to an internal order or profitability segment? If yes, please look at the note 373823.

Eli

When is object type decided?

I'd like to know when "OLTP Object Type(*)" is decided.
Though I created the planned order in APO, "OLTP Object Type" wasn't determined.
I checked existed planned order in my system and I found some planned orders have already been assigned "5" for "OLTP Object Type" but the others haven't been assinged yet.
When is object type decided? And how can we control this?
*OLTP Object Type = R/3 Object Type = Order_Type (import parameter of "BAPI_MOSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI3"(Order Category in OLTP System))
The selectable values are the following.
0     Stock
1     Purchase Requisition
2     Purchase Order
3     Sales Order
4     Planning
5     Planned Order
6     Production Order
7     Reservation
8     APO Local Order
9     Advanced Shipping Notification
A     Order Confirmation
B     Delivery
I     Inspection Lot
M     Maintenance Order
P     Project Order
R     Proposed Order
T     Shipment
V     VMI Stock Transfer Order
     Not yet determined
You can check the "OLTP Object Type" from transaction code "/n/sapapo/om16" (Ordmap Anchor Table tab).

Hello Shohei,
"OLTP Object Type(*)" is of more importance to the external system; surely, it would be assigned after the number is changed by the CIF .
The document is created an send it to R/3 or ECC (if you have publication types, Integration models, etc...); when the external system confirm the document and return it to SCM via CIF, the "OLTP Object Type(*)" should be assigned.
Probably you only have this number for documents working on planning version 000, and not for other planning versions.
At the end: "OLTP Object Type(*)" is decided by the external system, when documents go trough CIF.
Please check the following documentation:
"Order Category in OLTP System
The (OLTP or R/3) order category is used in addition to the order number to identify an order that has been transferred from an external (or R/3) system to the APO system.
Some examples of order categories are sales orders (fixed value 3), purchase orders (fixed value 2), and production orders (fixed value 6).
You can use various (OLTP or R/3) order categories for certain APO business objects, such as production orders or in-house production.
For example, a procurement order (BUS10502) in the APO system can contain both procurement orders (category 2) and purchase requisitions (category 1). In APO, the order category is only used to identify an order in combination with the order number. The category is also used in part to determine if an order/schedule line in the APO system can be changed by a user or not (a purchase order, for example, may no longer be changed, while a purchase requisition may still be changed). Generally, the order category is of more importance to the external system. For example, the R/3 system needs to know whether it is a purchase order or a purchase requisition that is being dealt with.
If an SAP (e.g. R/3) system is not linked to the APO system, and this system is to be used to exchange the order information that requires a certain order category, we recommend that you use the standard values, for example category 2 for business object BUS10502.
Orders that are created within an APO system, for example in a planning run, are not given an (OLTP) order category when created, since they were not transferred to the APO system from an external system. These orders all automatically receive (for example, when they are imported) the order category 8 (APO local order). These orders have an APO internal order category which distinguishes between criteria such as in-house production or external procurement. In a subsequent (optional) step, an external system can then decide whether an order created in APO is a purchase order (category 2) or a purchase requisition (category 1) and assign it an (OLTP) order category and an (external) order number.
You find these values in the documentation of the respective function or of the domain fixed values.
Note that certain functions (for example, configurations) are only possible for certain order categories."

Why Cost center is an External Object type?

Hello SAP Minds,
How does Costcenter and Person are classified as External Object types..?
What is the difference between External Object types and Internal Object types. I mean wht is the basic difference between them?
As i know Internal Object types are Org. Unit, Postion and Job,.
As Costcenter and Person are also part of Personal Planning why it became as External objetct types..
Experts please guide me.

Hi Vamsi,
While in personnel administration the person represents merely a type
of information object, in organizational management different object
types are processed. These are, for instance:
Organizational unit
Position
Job
Task
In addition external object types are also addressed. These represent
objects that do not belong to organizational management and are not
saved in its object structure, but that are quite important for organizational
management. These are, in particular:
Person from personnel administration
Applicants from recruiting
Cost center from cost accounting.

ABAP Interview Questions
1. How data is stored in cluster table?
Each field of cluster table behaves as tables which contains the no. of entries.
2. What are client dependant objects in abap/sap?
SAP Script layout, text element, and some DDIC objects.
3. On which even we can validate the input fields in module progams?
In PAI (Write field statement on field you want to validate, if you want to validate group of fields put in chain and End chain statement.)
4. In selection screen I have three fields, plant mat no and material group. If I input plant how do I get the mat no and material group based on plant dynamically?
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR MATERIAL.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST' to get material and material group for the plant.
5. How do you get output from IDOC?
Data in IDOc is stored in segments, the output from Idoc is obtained by reading the data stored in its respective segments.
6. When top of the page event is triggered?
After excuteing first write statement in start-of-selection event.
7. Can we create field without data element and how?
In SE11 one option is available above the fields strip. Data element/ direct type.
8. How do we debug sapscript?
Go to SE71 give lay set name , go to utilities select debugger mode on.
9. Which transaction code can I used to analyze the performance of ABAP program.
TCode AL21.
10. How can I copy a standard table to make my own z_table.
Go to transaction SE11. Then there is one option to copy table. Press that button. Enter the name of the standard table and in the Target table enter Z table name and press enter.
1. What is the use of 'outerjoin'
Ans. With the use of outer join you can join the tables even there is no entry in all the tables used in the view.
In case of inner join there should be an entry in al the tables use in the view.
2. When to use logical database?
Ans. Advantage of Logical databases:
less coding s required to retrieve data compared to normal internel tables.
Tables used LDB are in hierarchial structure.
3. What is the use of 'table index'?
Ans .Index is used for faster access of data base tables.
4. What is the use of 'FOR ALL ENTRIES'?
Ans. To avoid nested select statements we use SELECT FOR ALL ENTRIES statement.
If there r more than 10000 records SELECT FOR ALL ENTRIES is used.
Performance wise SELECT FOR ALL ENTRIES is better to use.
5. Can you set up background processing using CALL TRANSACTION?
Yes,Using No Screen Mode.
6. What are table buffers?
Table buffers reside locally on each application server in the system. The data of buffered tables can thus be accessed
directly from the buffer of the application server. This avoids the time-consuming process of accessing the database.
Buffering is useful if table needs to be accessed more no. of times in a program.

Deepti
1. There are other ways of entering data into a DB table. ex. B D C
2. Collect statement collect/adds the records basing on a key field. allows to create summarised data sets.
Append will append/add a record at the end of existing records
8. to release an object - use se10/se9
9. sales doc flow: S. A. - S. O. - Delivery - Billing
12. Delivery - invoice.
15. field symbols are used for dynamic allocation. at runtime u can assign a concrete field to field-symbol.
Kishore
1. you can go to abap editor (se38) and use insert statement for insertion update for update and modify for modifications.
2. collect will not allow duplicate entries, while append can allow duplicates.
3. if any changes are made to objects they are to be transported to different systems i.e, change and transport.
4. in user exits we go by general method for enhancements while BADIs we use objects (oops concepts)
methods for enhancement.
14. table controls are enhanced version for step loops where we can expand rows .main difference between these two
is step loop can be expanded to two lines table controls can`t.
15. field symbols are just like pointers concept which are used in C language. We use them when we want to refer to
the fields considered,it doesnt allocate any memory for it.
Venu Rapolu
1. Ans: Using BDC., LSMW,,ALE., BAPI
2. Ans: Collect: it adds the numeric fields to the existing non numeric key field records., thereby avoiding duplicate
values., and append will simply adds the record
3 . Ans: The CTS contains work bench organizer and transport system :
The workbench organizer is used to record and contol changes to the ABAP/4 development objects;
The transport system is used to move objects from an SAP dev.system to production system
6. Ans: Outbound interface is used to send IDocs to the ALE server.,
Inbound interface is used to Analyse the received Idoc.
7. Ans: We (ABAPers) don't do.
8. Ans: se09 or se10
13. Ans: MATMAS
CREMAS
DEBMAS
GLMAST etc...
14. Ans: to display records in table format., we use in Screens
15. Ans: we assign the field content at run time with ASSIGN stmt.
Satish D
1. goto se16 u can view the table contents
2. collect will collects all the numeric fields of nonnumeric field values
append will append record at the end of table
3. when we are creatiing new task like dev. a new prg.. after completion of dev. that will be trnsported to testing system or production system to do that we are assigning an
transport request from our dev.class(system) by using se09
4. badis are dev. by class and inheritence methods where as user exitsdev by SAP only and empty shells filled wit user logic
5. go to system then status
6. outbound generating an idoc in ale layer with master_idoc_create_messgetype,
inbound is receivng system with idoc_inbound_process, gives an return variable wether it is sucess or not
7. no we have to configur that
8. go to se09 or se01 there write your task no and use release button it will asks whats the other system name
and number enter them and relase by pressing jeep button
9. inquiry
quotation
sales order
shipping
delivery
invoice
return goods
12. after creation of delivry note invoice is prepared
13. master_idoc_distribute will generate standard idoc
Deepti
I am enclosing some of answers which I know.
1. We can use t.Code SE16 to enter values into table only if table maintainence is allowed for that table.
2. Append will add new entries into the table where as collect add into the numeric type fields if other charatcer fields
matches to your selection criteria.
3. CTS used for creation of ABAP development transport requests.The transaction code for this is SE10.
4. UserExits r used for adding additional functionality to the existing SAP standard transactions.Using UserExits we can add additional functionality standard SAP functionality without making any changes to the original code.BADI is a standardized interface for ABAP sources that enables partners and customers to enhance SAP-delivered programs in their namespace.
5 .We can identify User exits by using transactions CMOD and SMOD.
6. After entering transaction code SE10 select the transport request which u want to transport and click on transport icon(Truck symbol) to release it.
10. Purchase Requistion->RFQ->Vendor Evaluation->Purchase Order(ME21).
14. Table control is the only facility provide thru dialog programming when we come acrosse the use of updating standared,deletion,insertion and all database operations.
15. Field symbols r pointers to the existing data types(like 'C') which does not allocate any memory space. These are used faster access of data.
Answers to some ABAP Interview Questions:
Questions which I have faced in an interview:
1) What is runtime analysis? Have you used this?
2) What is meant by performance analysis? Have done anything to improve the performance?
3) How to transfer the objects? Have to transferred any objects?
4) How did you test the developed objects?
5) What is the difference between SAP Memory and ABAP Memory?
6) In order to upload Purchase order details, how you handle multiple values for a single field?
Eg: Item field may contain no. of values for a record
7) What is the procedure you followed to upload the data?
8) How did you handle errors in Call Transaction?
9) Among the Call Transaction and Session Method, which is faster?
10) What are the difference between Interactive and Drill Down Reports?
11) How to pass the variables to forms?
12) How to create a link between modified form and modified print program?
13) What is the table, which contain the details of all the name of the programs and forms?
14) How did you test the form u developed? How did you taken print?
15) What are Standard Texts?
16) What is the difference between Clustered Tables and Pooled Tables?
17) What is pf-status?
18) Among "Move" and "Move Corresponding", which is efficient one?
19) What are the output type and Tcodes?
20) Where we use Chain and Endchain?
21) Do you use select statement in loop endloop, how will be the performance? To improve the performance?
22) In select-options, how to get the default values as current month first date and last date by default?
Eg: 1/12/2004 and 31/12/2004
Go thru these answers:
1) What is runtime analysis? Have you used this?
It's checks program execution time in microseconds. When you go to se30.if you give desired program name in performance file. It will take you to below screen. You can get how much past is your program.
2) What is meant by performance analysis? Have done
3) How to transfer the objects? Have you transferred any objects?
4) How did you test the developed objects?
I was testing a developed object. There are two types of testing
- Negative testing
- Positive testing
In negative testing we will give negative data in input and we check any errors occurs.
In positive testing we will give positive data in input for checking errors.
8) How did you handle errors in Call Transaction?
We can create a internal table like 'bsgmcgcoll'. All the messages will go to internal table. We can get errors in this internal table.
Below messages are go to internal table. when you run the call transaction.
- Message type
- Message id
- Message Number
- Variable1
- Variable2
- Variable3
9) Among the Call Transaction and Session Method, which is faster?
Call transaction is faster then session method. But usually we use session method in real time...because we can transfer large amount of data from internal table to database and if any errors in a session. Process will not complete until session get correct.
10) What are the difference between Interactive and Drill Down Reports?
ABAP/4 provides some interactive events on lists such as AT LINE-SELECTION (double click) or AT USER-COMMAND (pressing a button). You can use these events to move through layers of information about individual items in a list.
Drill down report is nothing but interactive report...drilldown means above paragraph only.
11) How to pass the variables to forms?
12) What is the table, which contain the details of all the name of the programs and forms?
Table contains vertical and horizontal lines. We can store the data in table as blocks. We can scroll depends upon your wish. And these all are stored in database (data dictionary).
Which contain the details of all the name of the programs and forms? (I don't know).
13) How did you test the form u developed? How did you taken print?
14) What are Standard Texts?
16) What is the difference between Clustered Tables and Pooled Tables?
A pooled table is used to combine several logical tables in the ABAP/4 dictionary. Pooled tables are logical tables that must be assigned to a table pool when they are defined.
Cluster table are logical tables that must be assigned to a table cluster when they are defined.
Cluster table can be used to store control data they can also used to store temporary data or text such as documentation.
17) What is pf-status?
Pf status is used in interactive report for enhancing the functionality. If we go to se41, we can get menus, items and different function keys, which we are using for secondary list in interactive report.
18) Among "Move" and "Move Corresponding", which is efficient one?
I guess, 'move corresponding' is very efficient then 'move' statement. Because usually we use this stamtent for internal table fields only...so if we give move corresponding. Those fields only moving to other place (what ever you want).
19) What are the output type and Tcodes?
20) Where we use Chain and End chain?
21) Do you use select statement in loop end loop, how will be the performance? To improve the performance?
22) In select-options, how to get the default values as current month first date and last date by default?
Eg: 1/12/2004 and 31/12/2004
SAP ABAP interview questions
Thanks to the reader who sent in this question set:
1. What is an ABAP data dictionary?- ABAP 4 data dictionary describes the logical structures of the objects used in application development and shows how they are mapped to the underlying relational database in tables/views.
2. What are domains and data element?- Domains:Domain is the central object for describing the technical characteristics of an attribute of an business objects. It describes the value range of the field. Data Element: It is used to describe the semantic definition of the table fields like description the field. Data element describes how a field can be displayed to end-user.
3. What is foreign key relationship?- A relationship which can be defined between tables and must be explicitly defined at field level. Foreign keys are used to ensure the consistency of data. Data entered should be checked against existing data to ensure that there are now contradiction. While defining foreign key relationship cardinality has to be specified. Cardinality mentions how many dependent records or how referenced records are possible.
4. Describe data classes.- Master data: It is the data which is seldomly changed. Transaction data: It is the data which is often changed. Organization data: It is a customizing data which is entered in the system when the system is configured and is then rarely changed. System data:It is the data which R/3 system needs for itself.
5. What are indexes?- Indexes are described as a copy of a database table reduced to specific fields. This data exists in sorted form. This sorting form ease fast access to the field of the tables. In order that other fields are also read, a pointer to the associated record of the actual table are included in the index. Yhe indexes are activated along with the table and are created automatically with it in the database.
6. Difference between transparent tables and pooled tables.- Transparent tables: Transparent tables in the dictionary has a one-to-one relation with the table in database. Its structure corresponds to single database field. Table in the database has the same name as in the dictionary. Transparent table holds application data. Pooled tables. Pooled tables in the dictionary has a many-to-one relation with the table in database. Table in the database has the different name as in the dictionary. Pooled table are stored in table pool at the database level.
7. What is an ABAP/4 Query?- ABAP/4 Query is a powerful tool to generate simple reports without any coding. ABAP/4 Query can generate the following 3 simple reports: Basic List: It is the simple reports. Statistics: Reports with statistical functions like Average, Percentages. Ranked Lists: For analytical reports. - For creating a ABAP/4 Query, programmer has to create user group and a functional group. Functional group can be created using with or without logical database table. Finally, assign user group to functional group. Finally, create a query on the functional group generated.
8. What is BDC programming?- Transferring of large/external/legacy data into SAP system using Batch Input programming. Batch input is a automatic procedure referred to as BDC(Batch Data Communications).The central component of the transfer is a queue file which receives the data vie a batch input programs and groups associated data into sessions.
9. What are the functional modules used in sequence in BDC?- These are the 3 functional modules which are used in a sequence to perform a data transfer successfully using BDC programming: BDC_OPEN_GROUP - Parameters like Name of the client, sessions and user name are specified in this functional modules. BDC_INSERT - It is used to insert the data for one transaction into a session. BDC_CLOSE_GROUP - This is used to close the batch input session.
10. What are internal tables?- Internal tables are a standard data type object which exists only during the runtime of the program. They are used to perform table calculations on subsets of database tables and for re-organising the contents of database tables according to users need.
11. What is ITS? What are the merits of ITS?- ITS is a Internet Transaction Server. ITS forms an interface between HTTP server and R/3 system, which converts screen provided data by the R/3 system into HTML documents and vice-versa. Merits of ITS: A complete web transaction can be developed and tested in R/3 system. All transaction components, including those used by the ITS outside the R/3 system at runtime, can be stored in the R/3 system. The advantage of automatic language processing in the R/3 system can be utilized to language-dependent HTML documents at runtime.
12. What is DynPro?- DynPro is a Dynamic Programming which is a combination of screen and the associated flow logic Screen is also called as DynPro.
13. What are screen painter and menu painter?- Screen painter: Screen painter is a tool to design and maintain screen and its elements. It allows user to create GUI screens for the transactions. Attributes, layout, filed attributes and flow logic are the elements of Screen painter. Menu painter: Menu painter is a tool to design the interface components. Status, menu bars, menu lists, F-key settings, functions and titles are the components of Menu painters. Screen painter and menu painter both are the graphical interface of an ABAP/4 applications.
14. What are the components of SAP scripts?- SAP scripts is a word processing tool of SAP which has the following components: Standard text. It is like a standard normal documents. Layout sets. - Layout set consists of the following components: Windows and pages, Paragraph formats, Character formats. Creating forms in the R/3 system. Every layout set consists of Header, paragraph, and character string. ABAP/4 program.
15. What is ALV programming in ABAP? When is this grid used in ABAP?- ALV is Application List viewer. Sap provides a set of ALV (ABAP LIST VIEWER) function modules which can be put into use to embellish the output of a report. This set of ALV functions is used to enhance the readability and functionality of any report output. Cases arise in sap when the output of a report contains columns extending more than 255 characters in length. In such cases, this set of ALV functions can help choose selected columns and arrange the different columns from a report output and also save different variants for report display. This is a very efficient tool for dynamically sorting and arranging the columns from a report output. The report output can contain up to 90 columns in the display with the wide array of display options.
16. What are the events in ABAP/4 language?- Initialization, At selection-screen, Start-of-selection, end-of-selection, top-of-page, end-of-page, At line-selection, At user-command, At PF, Get, At New, At LAST, AT END, AT FIRST.
17. What is CTS and what do you know about it?- The Change and Transport System (CTS) is a tool that helps you to organize development projects in the ABAP Workbench and in Customizing, and then transport the changes between the SAP Systems and clients in your system landscape. This documentation provides you with an overview of how to manage changes with the CTS and essential information on setting up your system and client landscape and deciding on a transport strategy. Read and follow this documentation when planning your development project.
18. What are logical databases? What are the advantages/ dis-advantages of logical databases?- To read data from a database tables we use logical database. A logical database provides read-only access to a group of related tables to an ABAP/4 program. Advantages: i)check functions which check that user input is complete, correct,and plausible. ii)Meaningful data selection. iii)central authorization checks for database accesses. iv)good read access performance while retaining the hierarchical data view determined by the application logic. dis advantages: i)If you donot specify a logical database in the program attributes,the GET events never occur. ii)There is no ENDGET command,so the code block associated with an event ends with the next event statement (such as another GET or an END-OF-SELECTION).
19. What is a batch input session?- BATCH INPUT SESSION is an intermediate step between internal table and database table. Data along with the action is stored in session ie data for screen fields, to which screen it is passed, program name behind it, and how next screen is processed.
20. How to upload data using CATT ?- These are the steps to be followed to Upload data through CATT: Creation of the CATT test case & recording the sample data input. Download of the source file template. Modification of the source file. Upload of the data from the source file.
21. What is Smart Forms?- Smart Forms allows you to create forms using a graphical design tool with robust functionality, color, and more. Additionally, all new forms developed at SAP will be created with the new Smart Form solution.
22. How can I make a differentiation between dependent and independent data?- Client dependent or independent transfer requirements include client specific or cross client objects in the change requests. Workbench objects like SAPscripts are client specific, some entries in customizing are client independent. If you display the object list for one change request, and then for each object the object attributes, you will find the flag client specific. If one object in the task list has this flag on, then that transport will be client dependent.
23. What is the difference between macro and subroutine? - Macros can only be used in the program the are defined in and only after the definition are expanded at compilation / generation. Subroutines (FORM) can be called from both the program the are defined in and other programs . A MACRO is more or less an abbreviation for some lines of code that are used more than once or twice. A FORM is a local subroutine (which can be called external). A FUNCTION is (more or less) a subroutine that is called external. Since debugging a MACRO is not really possible, prevent the use of them (Ive never used them, but seen them in action). If the subroutine is used only local (called internal) use a FORM.
