EDI Advanced Batching

Hi All,
We have a requirement to Batch HIPAA 834 Document Type messages. We are using differed batch (ACTION_NAME = D:BatchID:Count:TimeOut) and need to batch large number of messages together(On a peak load expected messages can be around 30000 in the XML) in to one EDI file. XML will be around 150 MB, So we decided to dived the XML in to smaller chunks around 8 to 10MB(Each file having around 1500 messages) for BPEL to processes smoothly. Each divided File will be processed in Separate Instance and with same batch ID to generate one EDI file with multiple ST SE segments in one ISA segment. We should not send the EDI file even if one instance fails due to some error. Currently what ever the messages reached the B2B are being batched in the specified time Interval. So to be simple, Is it possible to instruct B2B not send an EDI file if Count does not match in the Specified time Interval? Any thoughts how to achieve this? If any message fails in b2b level, we are using b2b.outboundOneErrorAllError property for not sending partial file. We are using B2B 11.1.1.7.
Thanks in Advance!!

Just ran a simple test in development (which I beleive has PS5 installed). Below are the App Messages produced from my two documents.

I believe that I sent everything correctly (batchIds, timeframe, etc), but it still didn't batch them into 1 file/ISA. Is there something else I'm missing?
Do I need to have any additional batching scheduled via the UI for this Trading Parner?

EDI Outbound Batching Error

Hi All!
We need to batch outbound EDI messages in XML format onto one EDI message. We have used deferred batching that is described in B2B documentation. But we have received the error:

EDI x12 Batching Just through Map

Hi - I have a FlatFile message coming in, which is mapped to EDI x12 837 schema (containg ST/SE).
When I test the Map which input file , only first ST/SE is created and all other records are skipped. Is there any property in the schema that I need to change so that while I do Test Map, all records appear instead of just one ?
MBH

That's actually how the EDI schemas work because that's how EDI transactions are structured with ST/SE at the top level. Only in an Functional Group, GS/GE, can you have multiple ST/SE's. Interchange batching ISA/GS/GE/IEA are handled by the
Batching Orchestration.
A HIPAA 837 contains multiple claims because of the looping at the 2000A thru 2300 levels.
If you have an input with multiple claims, you have three choices:
Link your map to loop at 2000A (or 2300 if 2000A/B are the exact same for each Claim). This will give you one message, ST/SE, with multiple claims.
Debatch your incoming file into individual claims, map/process/etc, then use BizTalk EDI Batching to assemble the out going Interchange.
Map Directly to the Interchange Schema. For this to work, it requires some hand coding in places.
Couple of notes from experience:
#2 is the my preferred way even though it creates individual ST/SE's for each claim. Some gripe that defeats the purpose of the looping in the 837 but it's actually more in line with EDI and business transactions in general. However some receivers
can't accept this for legacy software reasons.
If you have to make a single ST/SE with multiple claims, it's much easier to just loop at 2000A for every claim in the incoming batch, even if there is duplicate data in 2000A's. The 1k you might save in the EDI is not worth the effort, programming
or CPU, to resequence by Billing Provider.

Advanced Batch Rename using RegEx?

Hi all,
I've got hundreds of files to rename, they're all images of vehicles that have been named based on their reg, there are 8 images per vehicle denoted by the number 1-8 immediately after the reg nuber.
What I need to do is insert a _ between the end of the reg, and the number at the end (1-8), I've had a look around to find a regular expression to try to do this in the string substitution option. But can't find one anywhere, and can't for the life of me figure it out myself because this is the first time I've ever seen regex etc.
All I need to do is select the last character of each file name, any ideas. Example:
Currently named:
BX59AHB1
Needs to be:
BX59AHB_1
All the registrations are different, and on the end of each is number either from 1 to 8. Any help would be greatly appreciated because it will takes hours to go through them one by one.
Cheers.

Regular expressions are very useful stuff and NOT just to scripters… You should be able to do much more with Bridge's Batch Rename now that it has this addition.
There is only 1 line of text in a file name you may not actually need the ^
No the files will not all end up with an _1 the expression \d matches any digit [0-9] which 1 thru 8 are part of… So it will put whatever digit was in that position back…

Advance batch number generation

Dear All,
One of our customer's requirement is printed batch number on Bags. So we need to sent bag for printing batch number and other details. For that we required Batch number that we will produce after some days.
We are using internal batch number and due to buffering there may be possibility of gap in batch number.
Is there any way to give reserve specific batch number?
Regards,
Nirav

Hi,
You can reserve a batch for order asap order created by making setting in MSC1N.
But if you want a batch reserved before order creation as well or with out any stock then
Go to OPKP & put no batch creation , and create a batch manually by MSC1n & aasign it to order.
same for stock you need to remove automatic batch determination policy & need to give it manually.
Thanks...............Rakesh

Batch Sequences can't convert 10.000 pdf-files at one time

I have Acrobat Professional 7.0 and I am running on Windows XP.
To convert from PDF to EPS I am using Advanced - Batch processing - Batch Sequences.
Every week I have around 5.000 PDF-files which have to convert to EPS without any problems.
Sometimes I have more than 10.000 PDF-files. After converting to EPS I thought Acrobat Pro was finishing to convert all the PDF, but if I look at the number of EPS, it seems Acrobat Pro didn't convert them all and it didn't give any error message.
This always happened when I have more than 10.000 PDF-files.I think Batch sequences cannot convert above 10.000 files at one time.
Is this a known issue? Is there any solution?

File > Export > Export Multiple Files will work as well.
You can choose your conversion settings in Edit > Preferences > General > Convert from PDF.

Count of Rows Updated with prepared statement batch

I am using a batch of prepared statements for update operation. (pstmt.executeBatch())
Configuration I am using
WLS 6.1sp2 Connection pool - Oracle Thin driver - TX Datasource
DB - Oracle 8.1.7
The batch update works well i.e data gets updated and committed. BUT I am not
getting back the count of number of rows updated.
Is there any thing more required on WLS side ?
Thanks in Advance

The Oracle drivers do not return the updated row counts from batched updates.
Try running the attached program with the thin driver
java Batch oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver jdbc:oracle:thin:@host:port:database user password
You will see that returns -2, which indicates that the number of rows updated is unknown.
This does meet the JDBC spec.

Diff. b/t ale & edi

Hello,
Tell me exact difference between ALE and EDI in Idoc's.which is used for sap to sap and sap to non-sap.

The diff betn EDI and ale can be as follow,
1) ALE = Application Link Enable: Initially developed for SAP as an abstract layer to extract master and transactional data to be sent ellectronically to other SAP systems. These days is also being used to send data no non-SAP systems. ALE is not a protocol or anything like that, it's just abstract layer composed by a set of applications which are capable of extracting aplication data on a 1-time basis or periodically, by selection criteria or incrementally by deltas.
2) In contrast, EDI = Electronic data interface, this is a comunication protocol not designed by SAP but it´s an industry standard. Of course most SAP software supports EDI, but EDI it's no software but the specification of the protocol in itself
Check the link below:

Batch Status seggregation

Hi Experts,
I am planning to transfer the stock from one Plant to another using Transfer posting with 301 Mov Type.
in 301, its defined that only Batches which are in Released status alone can be transferred.
The Movement type 301 is allowing Batches with Release status only.
Now the issue is, to segregate the Batches which are released from the Batches which are not in release status for the preparation of the Input file for data conversion.
Say Material X has a quantity 10 in 5 different batches. Out of 5 batches, 4 are in Release status and one is not released.
How do we segregate this one batch alone, from the rest of the 4 batches, so that the materials in these 4 batches alone can be transferred to the new plant.
Thanks in advance,

Batch status can be changed only using MSC2N or QA11 transaction. Batch status can not be changed using MB transactions.
I would suggest
Initially load all batches as un-restricted batch status.
using another batch program (based on MSC2N) change the batch status to restricted.
Hope this helps
Marwadi

Implementation of synchronization steps without using batch or parallel sequences

We are using a custom built process model based upon the sequential process model.
Do I need to invoke the Synchronization manager in order to use the synchronization steps when not using the batch or parallel process models?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

All synchronization steps and operations (Locks, Rendezvous, Notifications, Queues, etc) will work in any model or without a model, except for Batch synchronization.
If you need Batch synchronization, your model needs to use the Synchronization>>Advanced>>Batch Specification step type to specify which threads are in the batch. Since you aren't starting from the Batch model, I doubt you need to worry about that.

Difference between batch job and Background Job

Hi Forum,
Can anyone distinguish between batch job and background job for me please ?
SK

Hi,
Batch Job:
A batch job is a process that runs in the background, often deferred and unattended, to process data in groups (batch) rather than by individual transactions (e.g. a monthly phone bill rather than a bill for each individual phone call). A batch job executes a sequence of programs and technical instructions that are stored in a command file. Progress and error messages are output to a log file allowing users to determine, at any time, if the batch job completed successfully or identify the cause of the problem. Because batch jobs run in the background they are less visible to the end user.
In a business-computing context, batch job scheduling implies the automatic execution of background tasks (batch jobs) at pre-determined points in time (e.g. every day at 8pm, midday on Wednesday).
3 types of batch job scheduling can be distinguished: native, basic and advanced batch job scheduling.
Most operating systems and some business solutions software come equipped with native batch job scheduling tools that provide a limited service (e.g. Windows Scheduled Tasks, UNIX crontab, SAP CCMS) locally to each installation. However, business processes may span multiple platforms, applications, countries and companies. Their complexity may require much more functional power as provided by basic batch job scheduling including national and regional variations in the working calendar, sequence variations according to the day of the month, triggering of jobs by the successful completion of preceding jobs, elimination of gaps and reduced batch windows. Major benefits of basic batch job scheduling are enhanced productivity, operations reliability and cost-reduction. For e-business applications that require real-time processing, the distance between interactive individual processing and batch processing tends to decrease. Advanced batch job scheduling can handle these advanced requirements: event-driven scheduling for a real-time synchronization with interactive processing, just-in-time scheduling to run operations as soon as possible, cross-platform and cross application services for the entire IT landscape, real-time overall monitoring to track background operations for all applications on all servers.
The standard benefits of batch job scheduling are drastically amplified when job schedulers can handle the end-to-end automation and monitoring requirements for all background operations.
To schedule a back ground job follow the below steps:
1. Use Transaction SM36.
2. Assign a job name.
3. Set the jobs priority, or Job Class:
High --- Class A
Medium --- Class B
Low ---Class C
4. Here you can specify,when the job is to start by choosing Start Condition. If you want the job to repeat, or be periodic, check the box at the bottom.
Else click on the immediate and save this.
5. Now,define the jobs steps by choosing Step.
Here you need to give the ABAP program that has been used and the name of the variant thats being used.
6. Save the fully defined job to submit it to the background processing system.(You need to click save button on the main screen i.e SM36)
7. When you need to modify, reschedule, or otherwise manipulate a job after you've scheduled it the first time, you'll manage jobs from the Job Overview.
8. Release the job so that it can run.
The job, even those scheduled for immediate processing, can not run without first being released.So,do remember to release.
Hope this helps you.

Rakesh

Cross-Company Stock Transfer with Delivery and Billing

Hello Fellow Experts and Friends,
I have a situation at a client in California. The client does Make-to-Order sales. The only materials kept in inventory are raw materials and NREs. This client has plants in several countries around the world but only two are on SAP. The current version is 4.6C.
The scenario goes like this. The plant in China (CC: 2020, Plnt: 0020) wants to order raw materials from the US plant (CC: 1010, Plnt: 0010). If the US plant does not have enough stock in inventory, an order needs to be placed with a local vendor. When all materials a re available to ship,we need to deliver to and invoice the China plant. Additionally, shipment notification needs to be sent to the plant in China.
IWould someone please be so kind as to helpme with a "Best Practice" process flow for Cross-Company STO with Delivery and Billing? I also need guidlines for customizing the process in the IMG. This process must include issuing a PO to a local vendor for ordering additional inventory. For the shipment notification, I was thinking of an EDI Advance Shipment Notice if the receiving plant uses EDI. I need a different option, If the receiving palnt does not use EDI.
I am open to your suggestions.
Thanks,
AJ

Arthur,
Once this is correctly set up it works very, very well. And the cross-company supply scenario is actually fairly simple, streamlined and automated. However, this is NOT such a simple process to set up.
True cross-company supply, all the way through, requires a LOT of configuration which ties in SD, MM, FI, and EDI. It uses "wrap-around" IDocs to do some of the cross-posting in other company codes. There is also the issue of Intercompany markups, as well as Intercompany eliminations.
There are LOTS of folks who do the painful process of the FULL Order to Cash in one company code, and the full Purchase to Pay in the other. But this is NOT the right solution and requires almost twice as much transaction processing.
Just for the Intercompany setup, start to finish, I've been working on a "cookbook" to set up all of the modules for almost 10 years now. I've done it several times, at several companies and it works very well once it is all in place. However, that cookbook document is about 100 pages long (config settings, IMG settings, master data requirements, EDI settings, etc.).
Also, in your scenario you are talking about multi-sourcing parts from other locations. All of the related MRP settings are a separate setup issue.
What you are asking is WAYYYYyyy beyond the scope of forum posting. So if your company or client could use some help, please feel free to contact me.

I need create a lof of files with the same password with Acrobat Standard 9

Good Morning:
I need create a lot of pdf files with password. After I put all files in a directory and with the Acrobat Writer Version 4 selected this directory and the program Acrobat automaticly put the same password in all the files. After as well, I could select files with the same password and changed the password automaticly of this files.
Now with the Acrobat Standard 9, I don't know make this taskes. My cuestion is "Can I make this things with acrobat Standard 9 or I need other version?"
Thank you

Thank you for your help
Your solution is different from the other members' opinion. ¿Is This option available in the Adobe Standard ? Because I have not found it in Adobe Standard.
Your option is with Edit > Preferences > Batch Processing Security Method "Password Security" and the option of the other members is with Advance > Batch Process.
I have tried to change some pdf files that had password with Adobe Pro, so I tried to remove the security password from the pdf files, with Advance > Batch Process.
I created a new secuence with security through the Option "Whithout Password" but when I executed the secuence, the program showed me a window with this message "OPERATION NO AVAILABLE".
¿Can you help me? I don't kown how I can remove the password of this pdfs, yet.
Thank you in advance.
