Essbase default data clears taking place during FDM Batch Processing

We have been trying to avoid the default FDM Essbase database clears (which are coded into the LOAD Action scripts) by writing our own data clears and adding them to one of the event scripts. This was to ensure that the data clear took place against the correct members/point-of-view.
However, when using the Batch Processing functionality of FDM Workbench, we are seeing unexpected data clears taking place, indicating that FDM is still executing the default data clears. Is there any way to disable these? We also want to ensure that our own data clears are still executed (they are in the "BefExportToDat" event scripts). Please advise!
These are the unexpected Essbase application log entries we are seeing:

Hi SH, yes you are right, I also realised this in the car on the way home! But don't you mean "A" rather than "M" (for append)?
I have tested this and it appears to be the solution - setting the second character of the fifth segment of the filename to "A" has stopped the default Essbase clears from being executed. To summarise:
To append or replace to data in FDM:
FDM Web Client: Select "Append" or "Replace" option in drop-down list, respectively.
FDM Workbench Batch Processing: Set first character of fifth segment of filename to be "A" or "R", respectively.
To append or replace to data in Essbase:
FDM Web Client: Select "1 - Merge" or "0 - Replace" option in drop-down list in Export stage of workflow, respectively.
FDM Workbench Batch Processing: Set second character of fifth segment of filename to be "A" or "R", respectively.
Thanks for your help!

How to extract data from offline PDF files as batch processing

Hello.
I want to use Adobe Interactive forms as batch processing.
For instances,
1. Users download offline PDF files.
2. Users inputs data on their local PCs.
3. Users upload these PDF files in one folder.
4. Program can read data form PDF files on that folder. and put data to ERP at night.
I' d like to know how to implement a program with Java or ABAP.
Regards.
Koji.

Hi,
It's possible to do it but first be sure that the SAP system can read the directory while your program is executed in background .
Then you have to read the content of the directory and process each file you found.
Look at this standard ABAP object cl_gui_frontend_services , you will find method for browsing a directory and retrieve list of file .
Afterwards you have to process each file , for this have a look at this wiki code sample i wrote for processing inbound mail with adobe interactive form, it should help you [Sample Code for processing Inbound Mail with Adobe Interactive Forms|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/snippets/sampleCodeforprocessingInboundMailwithAdobeInteractive+Forms]
Hope this help you .

May I know how data load takes place in essbase

Hi all,
Since I am new to hyperion i need to know some details about Essbase.Last month we faced one issue.Whenever a data load takes place it clears the previous years data and loads only loads the current years data.May i know the reason for this.
And also i want to know how the data load takes place in Essbase.
With thanks and regards,
babu

I m okay with above statements ... Now i am going to add something else..
Above mentioned in how many ways we can load the data from different files..now what am i trying to say is we can also use "Calc script" to load the data...
You know how?
thru "Datacopy" we can load the data value(s) into another member(s)..You can see in session dialogue box while running the Calc script (Which it contains the "Datacopy") that will show data load in progress..
And also make sure that every time you won't do copy the data from SQL,Excel..etc ... it may be you can have the situation to copy the data from one server to another server...think in that way will be another good advantage for you..
i hope you understand this....

How to set default date of 3 weeks(21 days) from today's date during page load?

I want to show the default date as 3 weeks from today's date during page load.
For example ,i have given as adf.CurrentDate + 21 in EO for the attribute 'DueDate'. But it is showing me the date as 9.7.2013. 3 weeks default date is not getting set.If i give adf.currentDate also ,it not giving me today's date,it showing the 9.7.2013 only.Kindly provide your suggestions to set the default date as 3 weeks from today's date during page load.Thanks in advance.

Hi,
when you set the value on the entity level then you don't want to show it during page load but when the field is empty ? Correct? if so then the use case is a different one. The easiest way to implement this would be to create a Rowimpl class (Java option) and then in the get method of the entity attribute check if the value is null and if it is, set it to the current date + 21 days. This way all rows will be set with the 3 weeks due date but fields are not overridden each time the row is queried

Default date should be displayed in Locale's date short format in Prompt

Dear BI Gurus,
I would like to take your attention to resolve one of date format issue which we are currently facing.
We want to display Current_Date in locale's date short format ( For US: MM/DD/YYYY and for UK: DD/MM/YYYY) in a dashboard prompt. Also we need to pass the the prompt value to the report filter through presentation variable.
For this we used logical sql to get the default value as select Times.time_id from sh when times.time_id= Current_Date. Once I click on the preview button it was showing in locale's date short format. But when we place the prmpt in dashboard, the default date was coming up in 'YYYY-MM-DD' format. But since calendar picker is giving value in locale's date short format (For US: MM/DD/YYYY and for UK: DD/MM/YYYY), there is an inconsistency in the display format. So could you please provide any workaround to make them consistent.
Thnaks,
Siva Naga Hari.

Hi Vinay,
Thanks for reply.
We are looking for default date display format in dashboard prompt. i.e For US locale, default date and calendar picker should be displayed in MM/DD/YYYY and for UK locale, default and Calendar picker should be displayed in DD/MM/YYYY.
We don't have any problem in report output for different locales. Also we don't need to create 2 seperate reports for different locales. If we set the data format to [FMT:dateShort], it will display as per the locale's date short format. Please provide workaround to display in dashboard prompt.
Thanks,
Siva Naga Hari.

Regarding TO_DATE function and Default Date Format DD-MON-YY

I am using oracle 10.2 version. As far as my knowledge default date format is 'DD-MON-YY'. I want to know that why first query is not giving result.
SQL> select sysdate from dual
2 where sysdate = to_date('06-JUL-11','DD-MON-YY');
no rows selected
SQL> select sysdate from dual
2 where to_date(to_char(sysdate),'DD-MON-YY') = to_date('06-JUL-11','DD-MON-YY');
SYSDATE
06-JUL-11
Thanks,
Rohit

A date in Oracle always contains hours, minutes and seconds. These values can optionally all evaluate to zeroes, at midnight.
TO_DATE('06-JUL-11','DD-MON-YY') means midnight of the sixth of july 2011.
So
sysdate = to_date('06-JUL-11','DD-MON-YY') only at midnight of the sixth of july 2011...
While during the day, after midnight,
trunc(sysdate) = to_date('06-JUL-11','DD-MON-YY')and
sysdate > to_date('06-JUL-11','DD-MON-YY')Max

Problem with adding participation date as updateable field during HRBEN0001

We have a need to update the participation date on our health plans (infotype 0167) during the enrollment process after modifying an adjustment reason (infotype 0378). We used SE84 to add the participation date (RPBEN_SA-PARDT) to screen 0100 of program SAPLHRBEN00ENROLLMENT. We can now type in the new date in the field but when you hit enter, it immediately reverts to the old date (that was already displayed by SAP). We even tried saving without hitting enter but, of course, this didn't work either. We've tried everything and can't seem to make it work. Because of the nature of screen 0100 we are having trouble turning on debugger to see if we can see what happens. It looks like the screen has the field defined as not updateable but we can't find where that is set. Our insurance providers often require us to set the participation date to dates other than the default that SAP is setting. It doesn't appear to have anything to do with the field on infotype 0167 since we can modify the participation date field there through PA30. This gives us a work around but makes the process very tedious for out Benefits user since she often has large numbers of changes. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Tim :
Interesting as we also try to get field participation date maintained through benefit enrollment screen. The problem is the way SAP
is written in function 'HR_BEN_MAINTAIN_PLAN'. When selecting a life change event in benefit enrollment, SAP populates a list of internal tables (e.g. plan_offer internal table in which participation date is already defaulted to a date like current date).
When you click on a plan to enroll (e.g. health plan), a corresponding function is called ('HR_BEN_MAINTAIN_HEALTH_PLAN' for health plan). This function controls the window and logic for you to select the plan option / coverage. Within this function, it first populates fields in the window (display or not) with pre-populated records in the internal table, then overrides only fields currently
editable in this window (i.e. health plan option, dependent coverage). Therefore, even you add participation date and make it editable field into this window, this field will still be overrided with what's stored in the pre-populated internal table once you hit return or 'Accept'.
We even created a note with SAP to see if they can provide any suggestion; the answer is to submit a request for development for SAP to review.
What we ended up doing is to do this in two steps. First, enroll in a plan through benefit enrollment (knowing participation date value is not what we want). Once done, click on 'Overview' to go to 'Benefit Overview' so user can pick a record to edit (we have to do enhancement here to enable 'Change' tab here). This is to reduce the pain of having to get out benefit enrollment tcode, then go to benefit overview tcode to change participation date.

How to set sysdate as default date in dashboard prompt

Hi all
I want to set default date(sysdate) in dashboard prompt. How to do that.
I have not done this before.
tell me in clear.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Anand,
The formatting of the data is not something you can change in the variable expression. It is dependent on the data type of the column you used in the prompt. For example, if your prompted column is a DATE data type in your repository file, then you will NOT see a timestamp. However, if your source column is defined as a DATETIME object, then it will always add in a timestamp, even if that timestamp is 12:00:00.
If you don't want a timestamp, go into your repository and in your physical layer, change the datatype of your column from DATETIME to DATE. And in the prompt, keep using the syntax: @{system.currentTime}\[MM/DD/YYYY\]
Good luck and if you find this useful, please award points!
Best regards,

Hi Maheboob
Im glad the note worked -
To find the note , you could do a note search on the message IW056 you received and the support pack level you are on ..
For EHP5 the note is valid up to SAPKH60504.
The IW056 is listed as a keyword so if you search on it the note should be returned.

Default data in Customs document

Hello
How do I make default data into a field setting with conditions such as if Field A is 'X' and Field B is 'Y', then there should be a default data 'Z' into Field C.
Example, in Customs declaration document, if Country of Dep is X from header info and Item category is Y from Item info, then the default data for Place of Loading header should be Z
The Procedures for Defaulting Customs data in IMG has been checked. I have defined the Target document data for document field. Also done the Determination procedure for defaulting data. I have set up the master data in the Customs application menu to specify the Source data and Target data to default.
Am I missing something pls or is this something that BADI is better for?
Thanks

Upgrade 11.1 to 11.2 with Data Guard In Place

I am planing on upgrading my primary and standby servers to 11gR2 and was wondering what are the best steps. I do not plan on doing a switchover during the process because down time is only about an hour and we can afford it.
Here is what I plan on doing:
1. On Primary - ALTER SYSTEM SET LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_2=DEFER SCOPE=BOTH;
2. On Standby - ALTER DATABASE STOP LOGICAL STANDBY APPLY;
3. Upgrade the standby database then the primary database
4. On Standby - ALTER DATABASE START LOGICAL STANDBY APPLY IMMEDIATE;
5. On Primary - ALTER SYSTEM SET LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_2=ENABLE;
Let me know if these steps don't sound right. But my question is should I disable archive during the upgrade processes? if I do could this mess up sending archive logs over to primary because there will be missing sequences numbers?
And my second question is do I need to do anything to the Data Guard broker after the upgrade. I currently use Enterprise Manager to manager the setup.
Thanks in advance for any responses. Oh and I am running on Server 2003 if it matters.

Goods release is not taking place

Dear Friends,
i am getting error while releasing goods from plan order to production order.
my case is as follows
while converting pl.order to production order, goods movement is not taking place.even though when we save the entries, production order is saved with the order number.then i go for goods receipt MB31,"goods is not released" message is displaying.
In the production order system is giving error message
Business transaction can not be carriedout.
system status WERC IS ACTIVE (ACT 600026850010)
Diagnosis :
Object Act 60002685 0010 has system status WCRE (work centre until release).According to this status transaction release opration is not allowed.
Procedure:
you can only carryout the requested function if this is allowed according to the status of object.
can anybody help on this.i think some configuration is required between plant and business area.
please guide me!

Hi Krish,
There is a problem with the tasklist type usage used in work center.
Check in Basic data of the work center "usage". You can see the defination of that in customizing transaction "OP45". In your case the tasklist type is set for "Until release" (check box), this means that this work centre will give error if used in order at the time of "Releasing" the order.
Resolution:
Use a proper task list usage in the work center or change the existing one by removing the check box activation for "Until release".

Defaulting Date Types in IT0041

Hi All,
I have a issue in defaulting Date Types in IT0041,
There is a feature DATAR for defaulting Date Types in IT0041. When I create new IT0041 by PA30, values from feature DATAR is getting defaulted.
But, when i run Hiring Action and at that time vaules from feature DATAR is not being called, its defaulting some other date types.
Is there any other place where Date Types are defaulted?
Please let me know if you want any more information
With Regards
Shyam

Hi All,
Current problem is rectified,
Solution : I have used INSS instead of INS. In this case values from DATAR is getting defaulted
New issue is there,
Some dynamic action is automatically updating with Date Types those which are not there in DATAR. I dont know from where these values are being picked....
I will continued my research and let you guys know the status.
I request others to share their thoughts..
