Few clarification on SeeBurger adatpers.

Hi All,
        Presently we have EDI middleware tool which converts the IDOC into EDI and EDI into IDOC. On the outbound scenerio, the converted EDI flat file is sent to VAN and on the inbound scenerio the converted IDOC file is sent to SAP system.
        We have PI system to send XML files to our non EDI partners. We decided to eliminate the existing EDI middleware tool and install SeeBurger in XI/PI.
        Based on the bussiness environment and current requirement we evaluated the list ( [http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/index?rid=/webcontent/uuid/f0c0d023-a296-2b10-1ea0-bb15d4498035|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/index?rid=/webcontent/uuid/f0c0d023-a296-2b10-1ea0-bb15d4498035] ) of SeeBurge adapters and we decided to purchase the below SeeBurger adapters.
          Retail Industry Adapter
        Cross Industry Payment Adapter.
FYI : I'm aware that for converting the EDI XML to EDI and XML-EDI you need to have a seeburger mapping program(BIC) at the adapter module which does the conversion. For this module I need a BIC tool of seeburger which provides the different module program for EDI to XML and XML-EDI. This program needs to be deployed on XI and through adapter it has to be called for conversion.
          I believe that , to achieve this(IDOC->PI/SeeBurger->VAN) design, I don't need any additional technical adapters. Please correct me if i'm not right here.
Thanks,

Hi,
VAN(Value Added Networks)
VANs also provide an advantage with certificate replacement in AS2 transmissions. Because each node in a traditionally business-related AS2 transmission usually involves a security certificate, routing a large number of partners through a VAN can make certificate replacement much easier.
The FTP/VAN Adapter supports the following protocols:
IBMIE VAN, all report options.
GEIS (GeMarkIII) and GeMark3000, all report options, report file is only extracted, if needed.
EXITE (ECODEX), EDIFACT file processing, DISPATCHED reports.
Sterling Commerce and Sterling IIB.
MCI EDI*Net.
The following FTP options are supported:
SSL, both IMPLICIT and AUTH_TLS support, server authentication.
All popular FTP proxy types like: USERWL, USERWOL, SITEWL, OPENWOL.
Active and Passive connection modes.
"KeepAlive" feature.
Binary, ASCII and custom transfer types

Few Clarifications in OBIEE 10.1.3.4

Hi,
I was reading about best practices in OBIEE, found few things would like to know reason for following practices.
1)Do not import Physical Keys
2)Create Physical table alias in Physical layer and use only these alias while creating BMM layer.
3)Why create BMM dimensions for even the flat dimensions which do not have any hierarchy.
Also few general Qs
1)Aggregation tab In logical column has a check box 'Based on Dimensions' what's the use of it?
Thanks

I tested something yesterday. Using SampleSales web catalog, the style is new (smaller font, different table color header, etc). But, if I create a new blank catalog, the style looks exactly the same as 10.1.3.3.3. So, does it mean that the new style in 10.1.3.4.0 is only applied for the SampleSales catalog?

Need help regarding the few clarification in writing cmod

Hi All,
I need to write a cmod by creating a new project for that. The main purpose is to define variables in it which will be used in reporting(restrictions).
Now I need to enhance that structure with RSR00001 code since it dealys with declaring the variables.
But this enhancement code is being used in some other project as well, because of it I am unable to use it in my project..
Can you please explain me how can I overcome this situation.
Thanks,
vinay.

Hi Vinay,
Write this code in CMOD :
data:
z_include type program,
Z_return.
when others.
* Select the include program using the variable
    perform select_include using    i_vnam
                           changing z_include
                                    z_return.
    check z_return = 0.
* Check that include program exists
    perform check_include_program using    z_include
                                  changing z_return.
    check z_return = 0.
* Process the appropriate variable by calling the generic form
* 'PROCESS_VARIABLE' in the include program just selected
    perform process_variable in program (z_include)
                             tables   e_t_range

FORM select_include using    p_var
                     changing p_include
                              p_error.
select single zinclude
    into p_include
    from zvariables
    where zvarname = p_var.
p_error = sy-subrc.
ENDFORM.
form check_include_program using    p_include
                            changing p_error.

    l_name type programm.
select single name
    into l_name
    from trdir
    where name = p_include.
p_error = sy-subrc.
endform.
Then you can create a table having two column, variable value and its corresponding program.
You will then not need to disturb the CMOD Code.

Need few clarification in shipping

Hi,
1.please tell me how to find whether the shipping is multi stage or single stage shipment.
2.to find customer shipments and STO shipments
Regards,
Achu

Hello,
        If you want to do it Programatically, then here is the Key.
1. Finding whether the shipment is a single Stage or Multiple
    stage Shipment. You can input the Shipment Number in the
    VTTS Table to find out the Number of Stages.
2. Finding whether the Shipment is a Customer Shipment or
    STO Shipment.
    We can make use of the document flow Table VBFA to drill
    down to the Initial Documnt of the Shipment.

Seeburger FTP Adapter And SAP PI 7.1

Hi Everyone,
Just a few questions about Seeburger FTP adapter please. Bit of background for clarity, we are doing an implementation using Seeburger FTP and sap PI 7.1 picking up EDIFACT (Orders) and returning (DESADV, ORDERSP, INVOICES). However we are not using any BIC, using another tool for EDIFACT -> EDIFACT-XML conversion (conversion agent) and in-house mapping development using graphical mapping.
So couple of things which I haven't been able to figure out from the standard documentation for Seeburger FTP adapter:
1) First is the functional ACK which we are meant to send back to the VAN is that a STANDARD FUNCTIONALITY with Seeburger FTP adapter?
2) Because we are receiving a mix bag EDIFACT interchange on the way IN, I need to split messages accordingly and pass them on to the relevant channels and mappings. By using the standard module Splitter can I achieve that?
3) Lastly some of the standard validations which are applicable to EDIFACT are they supported within the FTP adapter automatically? e.g. Counting number of messages in one interchange etc.
Any help in this regard will be really great.
regards

Now a Good news.
If you are using Seeburger version 2.1 (which you should be as you want it for PI 7.1), then there is an Internal Classifier and Split option for FTP adapter. You just need to tick checkbox "Use built-in splitting" and you are done. Then I believe there won't be any need for considering all these problems. The earlier version of Seeburger with PI 7.0 doesn't have such option and that could be the reason you haven't received any appropriate response yet.
Still I will reply all your questions considering that "your case is of PI 7.0". -> remember PI 7.0
>>even with just splitter we should be able to break it up?????? or am I wrong in thinking this?
No. You even need BIC or an equivalent custom module for achieving this.
>>I can't visualize where to handle the overall message count in one Interchange any suggestions?
You need to write an adapter module for this. Not sure about the code but this module has to be added before the split happens.
>> seeburger ftp adapter it does talk about a lot of reports which are available on sender/reciever actions. e.g. delivered, despatched etc. Are these reports not essentially ACKs?
These reports are the ones used at the receiver side for getting the ACKs from the receiver. Your requirement is at present for sender scenario.

Seeburger AS2 Adapter

Hi,
I need few information how to implement seeburger adapter(Using AS2 or FTP) with XI. I have a requirement to convert the EDI Ansi X12 messages from a EDI system and post it into a R/3 system using XI.
The client system(EDI system) is in US has VAN and we have the R/3 in India. So do we need to establish a VAN connectivity or it can directly access the client VAN to take the EDI messages.
Do clarify whether to go for AS2 or FTP, and what are the advantages of each.
I went thro few documents from Seeburger which comes up with the package of Generic FTP adapters or we have a Standalone AS/2, or BIS:HUB and spoke.

Nithiyanandam

HI,
Brief about the FTP/VAN adapter:
The SEEBURGER FTP/VAN Adapter is responsible for transmitting files according to the File Transfer Protocol, with the particular support of various VANs. This protocol was installed as a user gateway protocol by several of the largest VAN providers, such as IBM, GE and Sterling IIB and Sterling Commerce.
The FTP/VAN adapter must be configured in the configuration part of the Integration Builder. The adapter is based on the Adapter Framework and is executed by the SAP J2EE Adapter Engine as shown in the diagram below.
The FTP/VAN Adapter supports the following protocols:
IBMIE VAN, all report options.
GEIS (GeMarkIII) and GeMark3000, all report options, report file is only extracted, if needed.
EXITE (ECODEX), EDIFACT file processing, DISPATCHED reports.
Sterling Commerce and Sterling IIB.
MCI EDI*Net.
The following FTP options are supported:
SSL, both IMPLICIT and AUTH_TLS support, server authentication.
All popular FTP proxy types like: USERWL, USERWOL, SITEWL, OPENWOL.
Active and Passive connection modes.
"KeepAlive" feature.
Binary, ASCII and custom transfer types.
Refer the below thresd which taks about the AS2 adapter configuration inroder to convert the EDI to XML message the similar configuration needs to be done in case of VAN/FTP adapter.
Re: Pls.. Help Needed.. Seeburger Mapping Names..!!
Seeburger adapters like FTP,OFTPS,AS2,X400 are used for B2B scenario where the file is coming through WAn network or mailbox. As XI dont have capability to convert the EDIFACT format file to XML the same work will be done by seeburger adapters.
The SEEBURGER Business Integration Converter (BIC) is an any-to-any format converter, used to translate EDI data and legacy data formats into XML and vice versa. It can also be used for complex, high performance XML-to-XML mappings or to interface to existing JDBC data sources.
Supported EDI formats include:
ANSI
EDIFACT
INHOUSE
IDOC
XML Schema
XML DTD
CSV
Delimited Data
positional data
SWIFT
EANCOM
and many more.
See for converting the EDI XML to EDI and XML-EDI you need to have a seeburger mapping program at the adapter module which does the conversion. For this module you need a BIC tool of seeburger which provides the different module program for EDI to XML and XML-EDI. This program needs to be deployed on XI and through adapter it has to be called for conversion.
Seeburger provides the std mapping program which has to be deploy on to XI and we need to give it to module tab in adapter which does the conversion.
Here are the some of the std mapping program which is provided by seeburger.
See_E2X_INVOIC_UN_D96A
See_E2X_INVOIC_UN_D99A
See_E2X_ORDERS_UN_D96A
See_E2X_OSTRPT_EAN_D96A.
We need to take the license from seeburger and we need to deploye the seeburger adapters then only we can see in adapter list on XI.

Report Painter - CO-PA Clarification

Hello All,
I have few clarifications on the below in CO-PA Reports, could somebody help me out.
1. In the report form, i have set the columns to display in number format of 10,00,000. when i execute the report in the initial screen i dont have any problem, but when i drill down by product or some other characteristics, i am getting an additional row on the top saying "Displayed in 10,00,000 inr" for each column. Is there any way to avoid this, i dont want this row to get displayed for the drill down display.
2. In one report, the requirement is to calculate rate variance for the product, the formula i had setup is variance between the plan minus variance between the actual * sales qty. Its working fine when both the values exists. When there is no value in plan variance and values exits for actual variance, the output comes as per the formula, but conceptually when i dont have any plan values for variance, it should not calculate rate variance for the product. How can i setup in the formula or row or by anyway saying if there is no plan variance, the the rate variance should calculate.
Request you to share your experience in this, please
Thanks
With Regards

Hi,
Perameters in General Data Selection apply to the entire repost (every column and row). Since the four columns of your report are having different period and possibly different FY, you can not put these two parameters in General Data Selection. As my previous posting explained, in addition of standard variable &1PERIV and 1CGJAHE, you will need to define 3 more variables for period FY respectively:
Period Variable 1 - ZPERI2 - Formula: IF '&1PERIV' < 12 THEN '&1PERIV' + 1 ELSE 1
Period Variable 2 - ZPERI3 - Formula: IF '&ZPERI2' < 12 THEN '&ZPERI2' + 1 ELSE 1
Period Variable 3 - ZPERI4 - Formula: IF '&ZPERI3' < 12 THEN '&ZPERI3' + 1 ELSE 1
FY Variable 1 - ZGJAHR2 - Formula: IF '&1PERIV' < 12 THEN '&CGJAHE' ELSE '&CGJAHE' + 1
FY Variable 2 - ZGJAHR3 - Formula: IF '&1PERIV' < 11 THEN '&CGJAHE' ELSE '&CGJAHE' + 1
FY Variable 3 - ZGJAHR4 - Formula: IF '&1PERIV' < 10 THEN '&CGJAHE' ELSE '&CGJAHE' + 1
You then use variable 1PERIV and 1CGJAHE for column 1, ZPERI2 and ZGJAHR2 for column 2, ZPERI3 and ZGJAHR3 for column 3, and ZPERI4 and ZGJAHR4 for column 4.

IoEO - Conceptual Clarifications

Hi All,
I need few clarifications and perception of everyone who reads this thread.
I need to understand the significance or the importance of EO. Per my observation there are very less EOs created actually. The VOs are most of the times built on PL/SQL query.
When everything can be done without the presence of EO, then why should one have it. Is there a specific scenario where the application cannot do without it?
For DML operations, we normally use :OraclePreparedStatements and OracleCallableStatements in the COs directly.
Any quick response will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
1. It would depend on the factors prevailing at the moment. May be when the forms were developed Oracle preferred to reuse the existing PLSQL APIs created for forms and avoid the effort to replicate all the logic and validations in the EO. But that is one of my guesses and frankly I dont know why Oracle did so.
2. You can definitely write Joins and Decode statements in the VO (based on EOs) but remember that the calculated column (decode columns) can only fetch data. If you associate a field to one of the calculated attributes, your values would not be saved into the database. You would be able to save only those values which are directly based on the EO attributes which in further have one-on-one mapping with the Database table.
Hope that clarifies.
Regards
Sumit

ASM - Concept - Clarification Request

Hello All,
I'm about to go ahead and install ASM for one of my clients. After going through the book ASM - Under the hood, I have a few clarifications, which I hope can be answered by the experts here.
1- Since ASM uses its our algorithm for mirroring - Can I have an in-pair number of disks in +DATA diskgroup? say 11 disks ?
2- In regards to Failure Groups, what is concept? Say I have 1 diskgroup +DATA - 4 disks - does failure groups mean that id Disk 1 goes, then move the primary extents to another disk, say disk 3.
- Can failure groups be in different diskgroups, lets say failure group for DATA disks, would be disk in RECOVERY ?
- Or are failure groups additional disks which just sit there and are activated if case of a disk failure
3- On installation, ASM 10gR2, are there any things a firs timer should watch out for.
4- Should I have a hot spare disk on a 15 disk array Dell MD1000 - is this really necessary - why? if one disk goes bad, then we can simpy change it. Does this make sense if I have 4 hour gold-support on site with a new disk?
Thank in advance for any assistance.
Jan

1. Yes, ASM will determine the most suitable block mirroring strategy regardless the number of disks in the diskgroup.
2. Failure groups affect how ASM mirrors blocks across them. By default, each disk is in its own failure group - it is assumed that each disk can fail independently of others. If you assign two different disks to the same failure group, you indicate that they are likely to fail together (for example, if they share the access path and controller for that access path fails,) so ASM will only create single mirror on them and will try to create another mirror in another failure group. For example, you assign disk1 and disk2 to the same failure group: ASM will never create a mirror of a block from disk1 on disk2, it will only mirror to a different failure group. Note that if your storage is already RAIDed, EXTERNAL redundancy diskgroups are pretty safe: hardware RAIDs are usually more efficient than NORMAL redundancy ASM groups while maintaining the same level of protection, thanks to hardware acceleration and large caches they sport these days.
3. Not really, as long as you follow the documented procedures and have Oracle patched to the current patchset level. However, if you employ ASMLIB, there might be issues that differ by the storage vendor.
4. If you are sure that no other disk will fail within those 4 hours, hot spare is probably not that necessary. If availability is of concern, always plan for the worst case though. Having hot spare will protect you from such second failure while the replacement is en route.

Vladimir M. Zakharychev

Need clarification on DNS, Certificate and URL? during 2010 to 2013 migration

Hi,
Agree with Thamara.Wijesinghe.
You need to different Web service URL for Lync Server 2010 and Lync Server 2013. If you only have Web service URL for Lync Server 2010, then Lync 2013 mobile will fail to connect to FE Server. If you point Web service URL point to Lync Server 2013 Pool,
then both Lync 2010 and 2013 mobile clients will connect to FE Server successfully.

Seeburger doubts

Hi Guys,
I have a few questions about seeburger adapter...
what are the adapter parametrs that need to be filled in SEEBURGER adapter in communication chammel step?
Also what are the securities issues that need to be taken care off?
what are 856,855 etc.
also do we have different seeburger adapter for each ANSXI and EDIFACT?
also does the receiver company will provide us their edi structure?
Thanks,
Ashish

Hi Ashish,
First you need to instal Seeburger BIC and then you should generate the XSD structure of the all your documents.In Sebbburger BIC mapping designer is generate thes type of all the mappings1)E2X----EDI to XML and X2E ---XML to EDI etc.Seeburger BIC mapping desigener can take care all the tranformatiom of EDI to XML and XML to EDI.
Seeburger adapter is the B2B EDI Adapter.Seeburger adapter is also many types adapters:
1)BIC Adapter
2)Split997 adapter
3)AS2 adapter.Based on your usage you have to configure thes adapter.for example
AS2 sender adapte configuration:
1)AS2
2)Asynchor MDN Setting:
a)SSL Certificates and Clint certifactes.
b)SSL host name:HTTP Timeout,MDN Retry interval and MDN Retry count
c)use proxy
AS2 Receiver adapter:
a)HTTP:server ,port ,url and http time out
b)proxy:
c)AS2:Compress,Sign.Encrypt,Sign MDN use proxy and Xi Message
Also what are the securities issues that need to be taken care off?:
Load the certifictes into IS and Configrare the Encryption, Decryption keay ,Sign alograthem.These to to be configure the Sender agrrement and receiver agreement of you interface.
Seeburger Adapter have more funcations:it is very good to Moniter Message.
1)Archiving
2)Message monitor
3)message Spliter
4)Mapping Variable
5)Resource manger

P-card clarifications

Hi all,
We are implementing SRM 7.0 in decoupled mode. I have few clarifications about P-card process
1.What purchasing document is transmitted to the vendor? Is it a PO? Who triggers this document to vendor: requisitioner or purchasing department?
2.Does Purchasing document go through (i.e. is triggered by) purchasing department?
3.Is EDI required to trigger the purchasing document to vendor? Are there alternate means of transmitting purchasing document?
4.Is EDI required to receive bank statements? Are there alternate means of receiving statement
5.When bank sends the bank statement to SRM and is converted to idoc for posting to SRM, does it trigger an accounts posting? Are the following accounts posted?
u2022Clearing account debit
u2022Bank (set up as a vendor) account credit?
6.When does the offset postings happen, i.e. when does the following postings happen:
u2022Clearing account credit
u2022Expense account debit?
Rgds
Sumendra

Hi Masa,
Our design is as follows:
1. ordering is done on phone with the user giving the vendor their P-card number.
2. The first system step is that p-card compant sends the card statement to SRM
3. P-card workflow is trigerred ( In this workflow, the requirement is to have 3 users - the P-card holder , the manager of the P-card holder , and the accounts payable person. The activities doen by each will be :
P-card holder : Change account assignments. Need to attach the receipts and other supporting documents to the workitem
Manager of the P-card holder: Just a business requirement
Accounts payable person : To monitor the account changes by the P-card holder
So I am reasking the questions:
1. If we use only the financial invoice process and not procurement process, is this desigh OK?
2. Can approval manager attach attachments when they get a workitem in P-Card workflow
3. Can P-card workflow pick up 3 approvers - P-Card holder, the manager, and the Finance person

Enhanced 3 fields unavailable in BI after DS enhancement

I did datasource enhancement in R/3 to add 3 fields into DS "0FI_GL_4". Then I go to RSA6 to click unhide for those 3 fields, activate DS. And then I put coding in CMOD. After that I replicate DS to BW system. I found those 3 fields are existing in DS, but the Transfer check box show uncheck for those 3 fields. That mean those 3 enhanced fields are still unavailable in BI. Does anybody know the reason for that?

Hi,
Need few clarifications.
You said that Transfer check box is Unchecked. Which Transfer check box you are refering to?
