Federation/Distributed Model for SAP PI

Hello Folks,
To begin with this is in reference to an insightful blog by Niki Scaglione - Decentral Adapter Engine is Mandatory!
We have been planning to consider having a distributed model i.e to have our central instance (PI 7.3 dual stack) running along with a decoupled AEX.
We wanted to run some specific interfaces that are critical to the business and also extract high performance from the decentral AEX. In short, decouple the critical interfaces (run on AEX) from all other interfaces (Central).
So this brings me to the below questions;
1. If we use a decentralized AEX, does this mean we will lose out on central monitoring? We definitely dont want to open two URLs to monitor PI.
2. If we have to reap the benefits of performance improvement, do we really need to install the AEX as a separate host? What does that mean overall? Again, we dont want the instances to run independent of each other i.e once again the emphasis is to have a single monitoring access.
Do share your thoughts on how you see this architecture.

Hi Shabz,
I am glad to reply to your question not sure how much it will help in the architecture point of view.Giving a try
Currently in my landscape we are running all banking and business critical interfaces and huge file size interfaces on Non Central Adapter Engine.Load on central AE reduces and performance increased.
1. If we use a decentralized AEX, does this mean we will lose out on central monitoring? We definitely dont want to open two URLs to monitor PI.
Ans : We have to use two URLs for Channel/monitoring however on same host.Currently in my landscape we do monitor channels in both central AE and NCAE
2. If we have to reap the benefits of performance improvement, do we really need to install the AEX as a separate host? What does that mean overall? Again, we dont want the instances to run independent of each other i.e once again the emphasis is to have a single monitoring access.
Ans : If you don't want to run independent of each other then your AEX for load balancing/performance will be on same host which your Central adapter engine runs.

R/3 Reference model for SAP IS-U

Hi,
I was wondering how I can obtain the Business Process Master List and the R/3 reference model for SAP IS-U. Are these available in the public domain, or can someone sent these to me?
I'm also interested in the link with the Business Process Master List to the pre-written Business Process Procedures (BPPs), detailed end-user documentation for R/3 transactions.
TIA,
Christiaan

IS-U data model has been divided into 2 parts.
1) Business Master Data
2) Technical Master Data
Business Master Data will have
a) Business partner
b) Contract Account
c) Contract
Technical Master Data
a)Connection Object
b)Premise
c)Installation.
Example :
One Business Partner will have multiple Contract Accounts
One Contract Account will have multiple Contracts( ex: Gas contract or Electricity contract or water contract)
One contract will have one installation
One Connection Object will have multiple Premises.
One Premise will have will have multiple installations

Creating Logic and modeling for SAP BW datasource in SAP HANA views and SLT

Hi to all,
I have small question.
We have BW system and SAP ECC as source system and to get data from SAP ECC source system we are using SAP ECC Standard data source.
Now we required to, create modeling in SAP HANA by use of HANA View and get data from SAP ECC source table via SLT.
So we can replicate same modeling,as we done in SAP BW system.
But my question is that, as SAP ECC standard data source hit multiple table and do run-time calculation, before sending to SAP BI.
How we can derives such calculation and logic, in our HANA studio, because as we know in SLT data transformation can be done in limited way also
in view we can not drive such logic via SQL script ?.
Is there any way we can do such modeling and logic in SAP HANA ?
or
is there any standard document for this type of case, which we can use ?
Note: We don't want to use SAP DS or DXC for data loading to HANA, as we want it in more real time.
Regards
Pavneet Rana

Thanks for reply,
As SLT is based on ABAP, so we can write complex logic in it.
But if we talk about SAP ECC standard data source, they have complex logic, based on multiple table.
So we need to write code from scratch in SLT to derive same result. but it will be huge time consuming , and required good ABAP skills, also it will lead to bug in code.
Also it will reduce the real time performance of SLT, due to complex logic.
Second option is procedure via SQL script, which is again huge effort in term if logic and can lead to error/bug in logic.
Does we have any other way or architecture to do this is very simple way, with high performance and less error issue.

Collection of reference workflow models in SAP R/3 for research

Hi,
within SAP R/3 (at least in version 4.6c) there must be a collection of reference workflow models modeled as EPCs that can be exported e.g. with ARIS Toolset for SAP NetWeaver. These models were used for some research about process metrics in the past (e.g. by Jan Mendling [1]).
For own research purposes, I am interested in these models. But the university I'm working with, has no SAP R/3 installation.
Is there a possibility to get these reference workflow models by SAP (of course strictly for research purposes)? I already sent an e-mail to SAP but haven't got any "fitting" answers - probably because my question did not rearch the right person for my problem.
Maybe, a SAP employee working in this area reads this message and can help me.
Thanks in advance!
Regards

Thereu2019s no great secret that I have ever heard of... there is a central transaction SWDM (Business Workflow Explorer) in any ABAP system where you can access all of the workflows of that system using a search range e.g. by entering the appropriate application component.
From here you can display any workflow you have found using the context menu option (i.e. right click and choose display).
When viewing a workflow in the workflow builder, you can use the menu option Extras > Options > Display of Graphical Modelling View to swap to the Classic Event Driven Process Chains view.
Your best bet for transporting it is probably to use the Print... option in the menu then adjust the Output Options... to output it as a file and pick the file type you want to use.
Thereu2019s an X ML export option as well, but I suspect itu2019s just the image that you need.

How to configure boe.properties file in ACTool for SAP BO Distributed environment

Hi ,
I am trying to configure the ACTool for SAP BO distributed environment (dedicated BOE Server, Tomcat and Explorer) servers. I have installed SMD Agent, Host Agent and ACTool without any issues in the BOE server(CMS), but I am unable to run the ACTool in Tomcat Server(Web Tier) and Explorer servers.
1. How can we configure the boe.properties file for Tomcat Server and Explorer ser to run ACTool?
2. Is it required to install SMD_Agent and Host_Agent in Tomcat Server and Explorer server (in my case i have already installed).
3. What all parameters need to be set in boe.properties file so that ACTool will run correctly in Tomcat server and Explorer server correctly.

Best Laptop model compatible for SAP instaletion

Hi All,
I am new to SAP i want to buy a laptop for personal,i want to use it exclusively for SAP(ABAP,BI).
Please suggest me the model of the laptop best suits for SAP,& where i will get it installed.
If i installed ECC 6.0, in that i will get the BI features or i need to install BI also.
Please suggest me the configuration of laptop,Model.
Thanks in advance,
Sivaprasad Rao.

Hi
No Hardware Vendor or SAP support can justify this is best notebook or Desktop or Server for installation of SAP
service.sap.com/instguides will give minimum hardware recommendations for the selected component.
After installation of ECC6.0 u need add-on BI content for Bi functionality.
Pls find some one who is in industry for you installation Hope they can help you.
If i require some thing like you,i would go for 3 to 4 Gb memory(ram) & Core 2 duo processor & not less than 300 GB storage(HDD)
Request quotation from hardware vendors with configs & also support must be good any where we use notebook.
cheers,

SAP Organizational Plan for SAP Business Workflow

Hi,
This is question is specific to SAP Business Workflow within ECC, relating to SAP Organizational Management:
We have more than one instance of SAP, where one instance is used to run all of our business, except SAP HR (let's call this SAP Instance 1), and another instance that is only used for SAP HR (let's call this SAP Instance 2);
We want to implement SAP business workflow (e.g. approving requisitions through workflow in ECC);
Is it possible to use our SAP organizational plan that is already defined in our SAP HR instance of SAP (SAP Instance 2), instead of defining an SAP Organizational plan in SAP Instance 1 only to support SAP business workflow.
Is it possible to define an interface from SAP Instance 1 to 2, to look up the requisition approver, pass it back to instance 1, and then send the workflow to the appropriate person. Or is there another better approach? e.g. Replicate organizational plan that exists in instance 2 in instance 1? SAP tools for this?
From what I have briefly read online thus far, I understand that "The organizational plan is part of the PD component "Organization and Planning. The organizational plan is maintained on a client-dependent basis. An organizational plan which was created for personnel management purposes (or is to be created) can be used in SAP Business Workflow without any changes, provided the workflow functionality and the personnel management application run in the same client." To me, this sounds like that the workflow functionality and organizational plan must exist in the same system and client.
Any thoughts, suggestions, or any advice to share?
Cheers,

Hi AD1981,
Standard solution would be using distributed Organisational Management. There is custom ALE for this (check tcode SALE: Application Link Enabling (ALE) -> Modelling and Implementing Business Processes -> Predefined ALE Business Processes -> Human Resources -> Master Data Distribution -> Set Up Distributed Organizational Management). Basically you would maintain organsation in HR system and distribute changes to other instance using ALE. Workflow would rely on the distributed org. structure.

Saku

What is Ale, Edi,IDoc tech for sap

Hi all,
What is Ale, Edi,IDoc tech for sap?
Thanks.

hi deniz,
ALE
ALE
Triggering OB via Change Pointers:
 When an application make a changes in any object an entry is made in CDHDR and CDPOS tables. When any change is made the SMD(Shared Master Data) Tool checks that ALE setting and create a change pointer in the BDCP table that will point to CDHDR table. A standard program RBDMIDOC is scheduled to run on a periodic basis to evaluate the change pointers for a message type and start the ALE process to distribute to the appropriate destinations. The program will read the table TBDME to determine the IDoc selection program it is MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_MATMAS in the case of MATMAS.
Outbound Process:
When the stand-alone program or the Transaction(BD10) is run, it calls the Idoc
Selection program MASTERIDOC_CREATE_REQ_MATCOR in the case of MATMAS, which is hard coded in the program. The Idoc Selection program reads the master data and create a master Idoc and stores it in the memory. The function module then calls ALE layer by using another function module MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE which is invoked inside it. Then Idoc filtering, Segment filtering etc.. are done in the ALE layer.
 To dispatch the Idoc to the destination system, the system reads the partner profile to determine the destination system. Then the sending system calls the function module INBOUND_IDOC_PROCESS asynchronously on the remote system and passes the Idoc via memory buffer.
Asynchronous Communication:
The data that is IDocs and the function module are stored in ARFCDATA and ARFCSSTATE tables. The function module ARFC_DEST_SHIP will transports data to target System and the program ARFC_EXCUTE will execute the stored function Module. If communication problem occurs RSARFCSE program is automatically scheduled., if successful, entries in the tables ARFCSSTATE and ARFCDATA will be deleted.
Inbound Process:
The INBOUND_IDOC_PROCESS program is triggered as a result of RFC from the Sending System, the Idoc to be sent is passed as parameter for the function module
In the partner profile if Process immediately is selected then RBDAPP01 program is executed. It will read the process code(MATM) from the Partner profile, which in turn invoke the function module IDOC_INPUT_MATMAS for MATMAS
 Function module will call the corresponding SAP transaction using call transaction or uses direct programs to convert the Idoc to Application document .
In the table TBD51 there will be entries to find which option is used.

Upgradation problem
When the old version program is upgraded in to newer version(4.0b  4.6c) the SE38 editor wont allow u get thru the programs normally to get rid of this.
Solution:
EDIT > MODIFICATION OPERATIONS > SWITCH OFF ASSISTANT. Hit Enter on the subsequently shown Warnings window. You should now be able to maintain the code as before.
When transporting the dialog program sometimes the links may be missing in the testing and production area. To overcome just check u have properly save your all includes and other stuff in the same request if not, do so. Other options In ver 4.6c -> Within ABAP editor try utilities/Update navigation index
this fixes the links

Universe for SAP Table

Hi Experts,
I need to create an Universe designer based on SAP Tables , for example EKKO EKPO Tables.
Can you help me with details ?
I would be grateful if you could help me showing details for this.
Best regards,
Maicon Neves

do you have SAP BW?
if yes, then load the table to SAP BW and make a model for it
and from BW, you can use the integration KIT to build a universe based on a Query on top of this model
if not, you can load the table using any data integration tool to another database, and u can build a universe over this database
and one more option, that you can build a virtual datawarehouse on top of that SAP table using Data Federator
and build your universe on top of your vritual datawarehouse.
good luck

Thanks a lot.

Create adaptive web service model for a web dynpro project

I have been trying to create a new new adaptive web service model for a web dynpro project.I am using the URL of the wsdl file to create the model. I have copied the url link of the wsdl from the overview tab of the web services navigator. The web service works fine when tested through the Netweaver Navigator. This web service has also been used successfully through the Visual Composer. But when I try to create a model for this web service URL, when I click the Next button after entering the URL in the model creation wizard step 4 , I get "Error loading wsdl file. Check error log for details" Given below is the exception recorded in the error log: (Infact, I get this for all wsdl URLs)

Hi Srikanth,
My version was
Version: 7.0.09
Build id: 200608262203
I was able to successfully import the model after I did the following
1. Re intsall Studion (same version , same build)
2. Reset the proxy settings to not use Proxy server
Thanks for looking into it though...

hi
This error occurs mainly due to the reason that particular plugin is not there in the NWDS.
So please try to reinstall the NWDS or try tracing out whether that particular plugin is there or not.
Thank,

Issue while creating Virtual provider based on HANA Model in SAP BI

Dear Experts,
I try to create a Virtual Provider based on HANA Model. However receive below error "Unable to find SAP HANA information model".
I tried to assign the appropriate package and HANA model while creation of Virtual provider in SAP BI using RSA1 Transaction.
Do I need to enable any services/ settings, so that I can able to use HANA Models in SAP BI?
Do I required any specific authorizations either from BI or HANA side?
Could some one kindly help to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Khader

Hi Srinivasan,
Thank you for your response.
I have already gone through the content provided via above links.
However I face issue while activating the virutual provider with warning message"Unable to find SAP HANA information model". Due to which I am not able to see any data from Virtual Provider in BW.
Do we need to have any special access/ role in BW or HANA system in order to consume HANA models in BW (Vitual Provider in this case)?
I am trying to consume HANA Models in BW for the first time.
So any more clues can be helpful.
Thanks,
Khader
