Event Triggering ABAP Programs

Hi SDN User,
I have a strange issue. We have many process chains and there are triggering by Events and these events are triggering by ABAP programs. My question is I want to know which even is triggering by which ABAP program.
Any idea guys.
Thanks

Events in ABAP Programming

Hi,
Can anybody please list out the exact differences between the events 'LOAD-OF-PROGRAM', 'INITIALIZATION' and 'AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT'.
Thanks in advance,
Sujit.

Hi,
LOAD-OF-PROGRAM: When an ABAP program is loaded in an internal session, the runtime environment triggers the LOAD-OF-PROGRAM event, and the corresponding event block is executed.
The processing block LOAD-OF-PROGRAM has approximately the same function in an ABAP program with type 1, M, F, or S as the constructor method of a class in ABAP Objects.
Programs wiht type 1, M, F, or S can be loaded into an internal session in two ways:
Program calls
Whenever you call a program using SUBMIT or a transaction code, a new internal session is opened. The LOAD-OF-PROGRAM event is therefore called in each program call.
External procedure calls
The first time you call an external procedure (subroutine or function module), the main program of the procedure that you called is loaded into the internal session of the calling program. The eventLOAD-OF-PROGRAM is triggered and the corresponding processing block is executed before the procedure that you called. However, subsequent calls from the same calling program to a procedure in the same subroutine pool or function group do not trigger the LOAD-OF-PROGRAM event.
so it's before the program is loaded in the memory for execution.
INITIALIZATION:
This event occurs before the standard selection screen is called. You can use it, for example, to initialize the input fields of the standard selection screen. This is the only possible way to change the default values of parameters or selection criteria defined in logical databases. To change a selection criterion, you must fill at least the components <seltab>-SIGN, <seltab>-OPTION, and <seltab>-LOW of the selection table <seltab>, otherwise it remains undefined.
If you want to initialize input fields of the logical database, you need to find out the names of the fields. To do this for the logical database SAPDB<ldb>, use Transaction SLDB or choose Tools
ABAP Workbench, followed by Development Programming environ. Logical databases. You
can also display the technical information for the required field on the selection screen. To do
this, call the F1 help for the required field and then choose Technical info. In the field Scrn Field
of the following dialog box, you then see the name of the field used in the program.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT
event is triggered. This event block allows you to modify the selection screen directly before it is displayed.

Problem in triggering abap program in process chain

i m running a infopackage in a process chain .
this infopackage creates the request in the DSO .
after infopackage i m including the abap program to delete the same request in the process chain .
but the abap program is not getting triggered .i have maintained the variant correctly for the program in the process chain .
what can be done so that the program gets triggered .

Hi,
You can trigger you ABASP program from
1. SM64 : copy the ABAP program's Afer event and parambeter and give it there and execute
2.or go to
SE37 >>Program : BP_EVENT_RAISE >> say test execute
and give the same after event and parameter ..and execute
this might trigger your program
Hope this helps you,
Regrads,

ALE triggering ABAP program instead of iDoc

Is it possible to have ALE trigger an ABAP program instead of an iDoc?
We need to send changes in Master Data to a system that can't handle iDoc, but does know what to do with SOAP.

We're talking about an All-in-One system on NetWeaver 700 and ECC 6.0. My company has developed an Add-On for Business One and now they want to develop a similar Add-On for All-in-One. That Add-On should integrate an Open Source system into an SAP system, or at least make the flow of data seem seamless.
I should be very careful with my comments, as I'm not really understanding enough about your requirements. I must admit key words changes in master data and ALE triggered my initial comment.
On second thought it might actually be worthwhile to think about other alternatives. E.g. you could look at the technique SAP uses for BW extractors, which might also be suitable.
I might just be able to hook into the Change Doc system by defining new Change Doc and Change Pointer Types.
Well, per my comment above, maybe you don't even need change pointers. However, if you do, you can mostly rely on existing change documents unless you're dealing with some odd or custom object.
Am I right if I think that IDocs handle those Change Pointers from some kind of scheduled background job?
Part of the setup for change pointers for a specific message type is to define which function module is used for evaluating the change pointers. All change pointers are then evaluated via transaction BD21, program RBDMIDOC, which can also be scheduled in the background.
but we only need less than 5% of the information contained in an iDoc
Well, in theory SAP offers some options: You can filter segments via ALE, use reduced message types or define IDoc views. However, depending on the technique this sometimes requires that the actual application (function module creating the IDocs) has to support it (because it's additional API calls that have to be present).
Defining new IDoc types isn't that attractive to us.
Though I do understand such statement in specific cases, it's hard to relate to it on a general level. I.e. in the latter case it's often more driven by strange company policies than by good design choices.
Anyhow, in the end I'm tempted to think that change pointers with IDocs are one option among many. In your specific case however it sounds as if there's possibly other techniques that might be more suitable. So I'll stop for now before I tell you too much crap pushing you in a wrong direction...

Triggering ABAP Program upon file drop

Hi Gurus,
I would like to trigger an ABAP program as and when a file is dropped in a drive. Please let me know what is the best way to do this.
Also please let me know how to handle in the program if 2 or more files are dropped at a time.
Appreciate it. thanks.

Trigger abap program from process chain

hello...i have an external source system which is a SAP client, I have a table with the fields i wanted, when the field of the table change to "ctmd end", the abap program in this source client will trigger the process chain in SAP BW and the selection of the infopackage which is a business date will be triggered as well to load the data based on the business key date in the source systems. I am new in abap program and wanna know can this be done so? If can, how can this be done? Thanks!

Triggering Event in BW through a ABAP Program in R/3

Hello Friends,
I am working on triggering a process chain in BW using ABAP program in R/3.
1. I have created a test process-chain in BW which sends test email upon running. This process chain is triggered by an event "Z_START_PC".
2. I created a function module "ZBW_EVENT_RAISE" which triggers this event.
 ( This function module is "remote enabled module")
3. I tested running the process chain, with function-module (SE37), which works fine.
 ( i.e. I do receive test-email after..)
4. Now I created a ABAP program "ZBW_EVENT_RAISE" in R/3.
 The code of which is as follows:
 REPORT ZBW_EVENT_RAISE.
 parameters: rfcdest like t000-logsys.
 parameters: bwevent like tbtco-eventid.
 call function 'ZBW_EVENT_RAISE'
 destination rfcdest
 exporting
 eventid = bwevent.
5. When I try to run this ABAP program in R/3 (SE38),
 The process chain does not get triggered.
(a) The "rfcdest" i got from SM59 - RFC Destinations -
 R/3 Connections - BW Development Server Client
 Value is "BWDCLNT999".
How do I go about debugging this issue? I know for sure, the BW- function module -- to Trigger -- to Process-chain is working fine. Only part is R/3 to B/W function module starting.
Any help is appreciated.
I promise to award points.
Thanks
PK

in ST05 there is an option for RFC trace. Not sure how much detail that will give you but you can try.
It is possible that your userid doesn't have an RFC call authorization in R/3. Do a SU53 immediately after running the program.
Also, replace the FM with any other FM that you know for sure runs (eg some BAPI FM) and run it - either in SE37 in R/3 with RFC destination for BW, or, from your code itself and see if that works (you can check return code).

Write an ABAP program in BW which triggers an event in R/3

Hello People
Method: I need to create a Process Chain in BW for info package loading. In the PC, after the loading occurs, I need to write an ABAP program which has the FM: RSSM_EVENT _RAISE , which triggers a pre-defined event in R/3. This event in turn triggers a 'z' program in R/3.
Now, I know that we can use SM62 in R/3 to create the event. But how and where do i need to write the abap code in BW. And do i just place it in the PC after the loading process? Do i need to inculde the FM in the ABAP code? Does the FM know the server in R/3 ( DEV or QA or PROD ) where it needs to trigger the event? And how do i schedule the 'z' prog, so that it starts after the event?
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Create and rfc function module in r/3 in which code you trigger the event, created in r/3 too.
You can, and should to do it, include a report as step in your process chain in order to trigger event at finish of process chain.

How to pass background event parameters to ABAP program in SM36

Hi team,
I want to pass background event parameters to ABAP program on job scheduling in SM36. For example, Background jobs will trigger, once background event triggered from Non-SAP system using SAPEVT command with parameters.
I want to pass the event parameter values to the ABAP program . Can you please help me on this.
Regards,
Anand Krishnan

Hi,
Which ABAP program - the one that will be executed as a job step? If yes, I don't believe you can "pass" something to it because it will be started by "job starter" of SAP background processing run-time system. The ABAP program executed in background can, however, get the job run-time information using FM GET_JOB_RUNTIME_INFO, which also returns EVENTID and EVENTPARM. Is that the event parameters you were looking for?
cheers

How can I trigger an event from an ABAP Program

Hi everyone,
I have a requirement, where I have to create an ABAP program, that has to execute (trigger) an event which belongs to a Process Chain. when I run the program, the Process Chain has to run.
So, how can I do it?
Thanks for your help, Federico

HI ,
The program can call function module BP_EVENT_RAISE to raise the event. you can create vent in sm64 and sm62 .There you give the parameter of the event same as what you will define in the event of start variant of your process chian ..

How to create schedule job and event trigger in XI to start a ABAP program?

Dear All:
Here are what i need to do:
1.To run a ABAP program to start an XI scenario per hour.
2.To run a ABAP program to start an XI scenario per day at 6 PM.
3.To run a ABAP program used event trigger to make sure that XI scenario has finished the process and after that wait for 10 min later and run again.
only i know is used sm36 & sm37 to set up a schedule job.
but what i don't know is how to do it step by step.
especially point 3.
are there any step by step example can show me how?
it better be simple and details...
thanks you all
Regards
Jack Lee

Hi,
If you want to trigger the event manually from within SAP, use transaction
SM64
in SAP this is done by scheduling a job
once a new customer is entered
your scheduled report sends customer master data
you can schedule your report (TCODE - BD12 I think) to one day or every 5 minutes... it depend on your needs and the system performence

ABAP Error:Illegal interruption of the event LOAD-OF-PROGRAM (in MIGO-Goods issue to Production)

Hi Experts,
while i am doing MIGO(Goods Issue to Production Order, I am getting the below ABAP Error:
Please give solution, It is urgent requirement.
THE ERROR IS:

Hi Rob thanks for your response. I thought about doing an OSS note however; I would think I would need to get the problem in config corrected first as it contradicts each other. The problem I am talking about is how they are to return material to vendor....I have never even seen this as a process in my 10 years....
Process.....when the PO is a return to vendor PO they go to migo and choose the goods receipt and mvmt type 101 and the system will default the 161 in the item level....the two are inconsistent. If I try to change the top level to a 161 mvmt (as this is what I am used to seeing) it gives the error that the PO is not a stock transport order... Would you agree that I should correct that problem first before creating an OSS note?

How to Raise Event in BW using ABAP program

Hi BW Experts,
Can anyone tell how to raise event in BW using a ABAP program.
Program should ask for the event to be raised and destination server.
Edited by: Arun Purohit on May 14, 2008 11:04 AM

Hi Arun,
By Using BP_EVENT_RAISE function module you can raise an event.Create an ABAP program and call the function module BP_EVENT_RAISE and create a avariant to specify the event to be raised. Schedule this ABAP code. Go to the start process type and set the schedule to "after event" and mention the event name that you created. Also, I think now you can mention the time as well and you can also schedule for periodic scheduling.
T Code : SM62 --> To Create an Event.
T Code : SE38 --> To Create an ABAP Program
Use Function Module : BP_EVENT_RAISE to raise an event.
