Error inF2F mulitiline scenario using substring

Hi,
I am doing a F2F mulitiline scenario using substring
In AdapterFramework , i am getting this message
Sender Adapter v1014 for Party '', Service 'YAMAHA_BUSYS':
Configured at 19:12:31 2008-10-22
Initialization error: Conversion initialization failed with java.lang.Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException
Could you please let me know what could be wrong ?
My content conversion parameters are
Substr.fieldFixedLengths: 10,10,10,10,10,10,10
Substr.fieldNames:FirstName,LastName,MiddleName,City,Place,State,Country
Substr.processFieldNames: fromConfiguration
Thanks
Ram

Hi Ram,
I think the problem is with the source file
it should be like this for your case
Substr.fieldFixedLengths: 10,10,10,10,10,10,10
Substr.fieldNames:FirstName,LastName,MiddleName,City,Place,State,Country
Sample file
FirstName LastName MiddleNameCity Place State Country
Each file length should be 10 and not like this
FirstName LastName MiddleName City Place State Country
Thanks,
Prakash

#UNAVAILABLE error in measures when using substr() in BO XI 3.1 SP3

Hi All,
I'm using BO XI 3.1 SP3 with Essabse 11 for OLAP Connection.
I got #UNAVAILABLE value for database delegated measures when using substr() on the dimension.
The aggregation function have to be database delegated because the measure need to be calculated again in aggregation level, such as MOM (month on month) and YOY (year on year) etc.
Can someone help to solve this problem?
Regards
Sofian

Hi, Sofian!
We also are trying to work in XI 3.1 SP3 with Essbase as data source.
As I understand there is no support for any essbase mdx/xmla calculations or functions in universe.
In document called "OLAP universes - best practice" are given some examples for SAP BW and MSAS only.
With Essbase OLAP source I can't even make simple measure like Measure1+Measure2, @Select doesn't work too.
All I've reached in this field - creating filters, prompts and LOV-dimensions with restricted number of levels in hierarchy (by filter in Where part.
But the main problem for us is - YTD calculations.
In our Essbase it is dynamic calculated objects, so I need to use Y-T-D function to use it.
Also we want to use Level-based, not Gen-based, ordering dimensions, but I didn't find any information about it
Did you find some examples, documents or reviews in this area?
Now, it seems like there is no any big project BOE+Essbase in the world...

Using substring function with error

Hi Guys,
I have a source field with 1200 characters which need to map to multiple target segments for 132 count of this source field.
This is not a mandatory field so it sometimes come without any value.
I am using substring function to breakout the string for every 132 characters and mapped to the target segments.
There are two problems, first it seems that if source is blank, there will be error.
Second, if source field come with only eg. 300 characters, error will also occurs.
I have searched thru SDN and try some of the UDF but to no avail.
Appreciate your guidance on this problem.
Regards
FNG

How to use substr in external table defnition.

Hi All,
Im using oracle 11g. I have an external table which is reading data from a file. For one of the column, i need to get only the first 250 characters. My external table defnition looks like this
create table tbl_substr
( col1 varchar2(20),
col2 varchar2(250)
organization external
( type oracle_loader
default directory XXXX
access parameters (
records delimited by newline
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
missing field values are null
( col1 ,
col2 "substr(:col2,1,250)"
) ) location ('file.txt') )
reject limit unlimited
But this defnition gives an error when i do select * from tbl_substr
I want to use substr in external table defnition its self and not in SELECT. Also i dont want to crete a view to solve this. If anyone has done this please help.

You need to play with COLUMN_TRANSFORMS

Invoking a scenario using web service

Hi Experts,
Could anyone pls suggest how to pass variables from SOAP to ODI 11g(11.1.1.6.3)
Here we are using wsdl utility to invoke a scenario using web service and trying to pass a variable like the below
The scenario is triggered successfully without passing a parameter.
But when i try to pass a variable like the below,am getting error
Variables name='PROJECT_CODE'
Variables value='JI-2015'
In ODI 11g, i have generated a scenario with a variable PROJECT_CODE as a declare variable and tried triggering from both the environments
From ODI 11g:
When I try to trigger the scenario from wsdl, in that variable step(in operator), I got error as ODI-17546: Specified variable not found in the Repository
But in the work repository SNP_VAR table I could still see the variable name under VAR_NAME column.
From ODI 10g:
When i try to do the same from odi 10g, the scenario execution is success.
But the variable had taken only NULL value instead of taking the value which i passed from wsdl.
Could you pls advise where am going wrong

variable should be passed in the soap message by adding variables elements. Refer to Note ID [1499852.1]
<Variables>
<Name>Project.Variable1</Name>
<Value>Variable1Value</Value>
</Variables>
<Variables>
<Name>Project.Variable2</Name>
<Value>Variable2Value</Value>
</Variables>
<Variables>
<Name>Project.Variable3</Name>
<Value>Variable3Value</Value>

Everything runs fine from the Designer. I can execute the scenarion using the agent from Designer no problem.
Any idea on this error? Sounds like a path error, but I've checked everything.
Thanks in advance.
Nick

I believe i have the answer.
When are you are triggering via ODI Designer its going and reading from this folder path Oracle_ODI1\oracledi.sdk\lib
Now there is another Folder called Lib which has the re.py causing which enables Designer to run the re module perfectly.
When the same scenarios is being called via startscen it reads the Oracle_ODI1\oracledi\agent\lib and here there is Jython.jar is there but Lib which contains the re.py is missing.
Temporary Solution - Copy the Lib from Oracle_ODI1\oracledi.sdk\lib to Oracle_ODI1\oracledi\agent\lib and call your startscen again .It should work.
The reason i am calling this a temporary solution is that we would need to modify the odiparams accordingly to read from the right path namely(Lib) and i dont have much time to look at it now. i will look into it later.
You can try if this works and if you want you can check with metalink if there is proper solution or reach Oracle Support for more appropriate solution or any other experts who have experinced the same can update the solution.

File to SOAP Scenario Using BPM

Hi,
I am doing File to SOAP scenario using BPM.
while doing Integration Process in IR, i got the following error message
"Expression of simple type xsd:string expected"
But i have given xsd:string in the correlation element as well as in Data types.
I dont know why it is getting the error.
could you anyone please help me to sort out?
Regards,
Sai Ch.

Hey,
Check in the correlation editor, where you define the condition.
Whether the data type of the XPath is string and whether it matches with the data type of the messages that you have selected.also make sure the type of the correlation variable is string.

File to IDOC Scenario using BPM

Hi Experts,
    I am working on file-Bapi-Idoc scenario using BPM.
    I have two conditions
1. If the Sonumber is populated then need trigger an Bapi_change
2.If the Sonumber is not populated from the file then need to trigger a Bapi_Createfromdat to create the sales order and receive the salesorder number as response from Bapi
and the response of these BAPIs should be validated whether the Bapi is successful or not.
If it is successful message then need to trigger IDOC or else should throw an alert message.
let me know the steps involved in this scenario.
can i send alert message to other email IDs or can i send it to only XI admin?
Please let me know u r inputs.
Thanks in advance
Praveen

Hey,
You need to have a BPM for this.
BPM design.
Recieve step(abstract asynchronous) for file structure
Switch Case(condition whether sonumber is populated or not)
if populated
Branch 1(of switch)
    transforamtion step:- mapping between File and Bapi_Change(Request structure)
Send step(abstract syncronous) To send the BAPI_change
Branch 2(of switch)
transformation step:-mapping between file and BApi_Create
Send step(abstract synchronous) To send the BAPI_Create
Block step(which will include the Switch step)
    trigger an Execption in case of an error(in any of the two branches) through the block
    The Exception will trigger an alert.
Now after the Block step there will be a transformation step(which will have the mapping between RFC response and Idoc)
Next is the send step(abstract asynchronous) for the idoc
In case if there is no exception the Idoc will be triggered or the exception branch will trigger the alert
rewards points if useful

            l_str := substr( l_str, l_n+length(p_delim) );
        end loop;
        return l_data;

Urgent :Getting error "No ALE scenario active in Profit Center Accounting"

Hi Experts
I am working on a LSWM project ,which uses BAPI BAPI_PROFITCENTER_CREATE for upload of data,but I am facing a strange problem during the IDOC posting the error "No ALE scenario active in Profit Center Accounting" is shown and the status of IDOC goes to 51.
I have done all the ALE setting required for LSMW like File port ,partner type and partner number.
Please help me to solve this error.
Thanks

Hi,
Refer This SDN Blog, which gives you steps in detail....
LSMW Step by Step Guide: Legacy System Migration Workbench is an R/3 Based tool for data transfer from legacy to R/3 for one time or periodic transfer.
Basic technique is Import data from Spreadsheet / Sequential file, convert from source format to target format and import into R/3 database. LSMW not part of standard R/3, if we need this product email [email protected]
Advantages of LSMW:
 Most of the functions are within R/3, hence platform independence.
 Quality and data consistency due to standard import techniques.
 Data mapping and conversion rules are reusable across projects.
 A variety of technical possibilities of data conversion.
 Generation of the conversion program on the basis of defined rules
 Interface for data in spreadsheet format.
 Creation of data migration objects on the basis of recorded transactions.
 Charge-free for SAP customers and partners.
Working With LSMW:
Use TCODE LSMW
Objects of LSMW:
Project ID with max of 10 char to Name the data transfer project.
Subproject Used as further structuring attribute.
Object ID with max of 10 Characters, to name the Business object .
Project can have multiple sub projects and subprojects can have multiple objects.
Project documentation displays any documentation maintained for individual pop ups and processing steps
User Guide: Clicking on Enter leads to interactive user guide which displays the Project name, sub project name and object to be created.
Object type and import techniques:
Standard Batch / Direct input.
Batch Input Recording
 o If no standard programs available
 o To reduce number of target fields.
 o Only for fixed screen sequence.
 BAPI
 IDOC
 o Settings and preparations needed for each project
Preparations for IDOC inbound processing:
 Choose settings -> IDOC inbound processing in LSMW
 Set up File port for file transfer, create port using WE21.
 Additionally set up RFC port for submitting data packages directly to function module IDoc_Inbound_Asynchronous, without creating a file during data conversion.
 Setup partner type (SAP recommended US) using WE44.
 Maintain partner number using WE20.
 Activate IDOC inbound processing.
 Verify workflow customizing.
Steps in creating LSMW Project:
 Maintain attributes choose the import method.
 Maintain source structure/s with or without hierarchical relations. (Header, Detail)
 Maintain source fields for the source structures. Possible field types C,N,X, date, amount and packed filed with decimal places.
 Fields can be maintained individually or in table form or copy from other sources using upload from a text file
 Maintain relationship between source and target structures.
 Maintain Field mapping and conversion rules
 For each Target field the following information is displayed:
 o Field description
 o Assigned source fields (if any)
 o Rule type (fixed value, translation etc.)
 o Coding.
 o Some fields are preset by the system & are marked with Default setting.
 Maintain Fixed values, translations, user defined routines Here reusable rules can be processed like assigning fixed values, translation definition etc.
 Specify Files
 o Legacy data location on PC / application server
 o File for read data ( extension .lsm.read)
 o File for converted data (extension .lsm.conv)
 Assign Files to defined source structures
 Read data Can process all the data or part of data by specifying from / to transaction numbers.
 Display read data To verify the input data being read
 Convert Data Data conversion happens here, if data conversion program is not up to date, it gets regenerated automatically.
 Display converted data To verify the converted data
Import Data Based on the object type selected
 Standard Batch input or Recording
 o Generate Batch input session
 o Run Batch input session
 Standard Direct input session
 o Direct input program or direct input transaction is called
BAPI / IDOC Technique:
 IDOC creation
 o Information packages from the converted data are stored on R/3 Database.
 o system assigns a number to every IDOC.
 o The file of converted data is deleted.
 IDOC processing
 o IDOCS created are posted to the corresponding application program.
 o Application program checks data and posts in the application database.
Finally Transport LSMW Projects:
 R/3 Transport system
 o Extras ->Create change request
 o Change request can be exported/imported using CTS
 Export Project
 o Select / Deselect part / entire project & export to another R/3 system
 Import Project
 o Exported mapping / rules can be imported through PC file
 o Existing Project data gets overwritten
 o Prevent overwriting by using
 Import under different name
 Presetting for Inbound IDOC processing not transportable.
One Last thing, Check in BD64 is the Distribution model is Active for Profit Center.
Cheers...
