Flexibility queuing in XI 3.0

Hi guys,
We have a scenario where we have an SAP 620 system sending an idoc to XI 3.0 and then XI sending a file to a third party system. The idoc has a production order number in the control data.
We want to be able to have separate queues created for each different production order number so that if there is a problem in one queue it does not affect other production orders. They will be in different queues so they will continue to be processed by XI.
Can offer some advice on how to achieve this?

Stop Playback After Current Track

I hate to stop the music in the middle of a track, so i would love some way to make Spotify stop playback after the current track.
Right now I can simulate the desired behaviour by right-clicking an empty playlist, (that i have created for this purpose only) and selecting "Choose as Current Playlist" and making sure that the play queue is empty. While this is a nice workaround, I think that it would make sense to include a real "Stop Playback After Current Track"-function in Spotify.
Update (2015-02-01):
The previously suggested workaround doesn't even work any more as Rapti has pointed out in a comment. At one point it could even make Spotify crash completely.
I would like to point out that a saner, more flexible queuing system could allow even finer control over when to stop playing. Thus people who like this idea might also like:
Make entire play queue editable (I have added my own comment to that idea about how Google Play Music seems to work)

I've also wanted this feature for a long time, and I made a little userscript to do this using the Spotify Play Button. I wrote a blog post about it in Norwegian a couple of minutes ago. Here it is, run through Google Translate. A couple of the translations are a litle corny and weird, but I think you'll get the point, though. However, if you're fluent in Norwegian or JavaScript, these two links might help you clear things up a bit: Blog post in Norwegian, Spotify Break After at userscripts.org. Thank you for your time. :)

Wanted: Flexible Priority Queue

Given this class
class Foo {
private int STATE, VAL;
// STATEs are unique, VALs are not
I want a collection C of Foo objects that supports these operations
in at most O(log n) time.
(1) boolean C.contains(Object o);
--> Using STATE as the comparator
(2) Object C.get(Object o);
--> Return a reference to the collection object that equals o,
again, using STATE as the comparator
(3) Object C.minExtract();
--> Remove and return the object with the minimum VAL.
If there is a tie, choose arbitrarily.
Operations (1) and (2) call for something like a TreeMap.
But operation (3) wants to treat the collection as a priority queue,
which is often implemented as a heap data structure -- which I don't
see in the classes that come with java.
In fact all the SortedSet and SortedMap collections seem to require
unique keys, whereas operation (3) wants to keep the collection sorted
by non-unique VALs.
Question: are there off-the-shelf classes I can use to efficiently do what
I want, or do I need to design it from scratch?
thanks,
roy

DragonMan,
I agree I may have to create a class which manages two data structures. The first, perhaps, a HashSet. but:
The other a sorted List of some kind, ordered by VAL.The problem here is "what kind"? As I noted, all of java's sorted collections seem to require unique keys, but VAL is not unique. I suppose I could create my own red-balck tree or heap or whatever, but I'd like to see how much mileage I can get out of java first.
Currently, I'm considering combining STATE and VAL to make a unique key (since STATE already is unique) whose order however, is dominated by the VAL component.

UCCX 9.0 - Flexible open hours/dates

Hi All,
I’m new to uccx scripting and I need some advice...
We currently have a number of live queues setup with hard coded open hours and dates. (i.e. 9am-5pm and closed for holidays)
Now the company wants to move to a more a flexible model.
The ideal solution is that we have a structured model, with supervisors having the ability to temporarily shut the queue (non-emergency messaging) or open the queue in and out of normal operation hours.
Any advice/solutions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Oliver

You need to define a bit more about what it is that you need.
I.e.,
How should people access the interface? TUI? Web? Both? Other? Additional?
How do you authenticate users to the interface? User ID + Password? Simple PIN? Other?
How do you authorize users to change the specific queue or department?
However, I can tell you from experience the most popular solution for opening and closing a call center at any given moment, is to log in an Agent account that you check for in the script. E.g., Agent name cs_closed, and your script checks their log status. If they are logged in, then you close the call center. I don't like this method because it burns an Agent license.
I would suggest just storing a value in a text file in the repository to achieve the same thing, but instead of logging in an Agent to "flag" the change, create a simple little IVR that allows callers to "flag" the text file, and then your calling script just reads the flag.
Here's a recent post I made, describing one way to achieve this:
https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/4147363#4147363
Outside of the popular option, there's holding values on an external source: databases if you have premium, web servers if you have enhanced or standard.
If the times are variable but within a limited set of combinations, then you could just have a switch step switching which Time of Day block is being used based on that same text file solution above.
You could also write your own Time of Day step by using simple logic such as:
If (T[now] >= start && T[now] <= end)
And then your start and end variables could be application parameters for which your admins can log into UCCX to modify.
Anyway, lots of options here, too many to go through. Do you have more specific questions?

Http to Abap Proxy communication with multiple queues generation in Recevr

Dear SDNs,
I need some help in the following scenario, appreciate your suggestions and help .
I am receiving the messages from sender to PI on http posting, from PI I am sending the message to SAP system using receiver xi communication channel ( receiver is abap proxy).
Sender will send the messages in QOS=EOIO, QUEueID=XXXt_100 etc parameters, when large volumes cases, it is getting delayed to process it using a single queue.
We are thinking to dynamically generate multiple queues in PI and send the same queue ids to receiver SAP system to process all the messages quickly in SAP System also.
Help /Clarifications needed:
1. XI receiver communication channel in pi does not provide any options to generate dynamic queue id based on payload content (using dynamic configuration) and sent it to SAP.
2. Module Tab in receiver communication channel also got disabled to add custom adapter modules, can we add custome adapter module on xi receiver channel to generate dynamic queue id ?
Really appreciate your immediate help and suggestions.
Thanks.
Suraj.

Dear Praveen,
Thanks lot for the immediate reply, we need to use EOIO, as the messages need to be processed in the same order we send and receive, there is no flexibility in QOS=EOIO, Appreciate if there is any other thoughts?
Thanks In Advance.
Suraj.

GOOP queues and other stored references

need to ask this because Im not at the target machine to try it myself until Monday.
Re Endevo by ref Goop Wizard 3.0.5
I am using queues in process objects.
WHen I create the object I create the queue and store the queue reference in the attributes of the object.
Then I use the queue for controlling public status and shutdown functions etc..
Question is the following.
I ran into a glitch today whereby the queue refs and some other refs go invalid while the Goop repository is showing "live" objects.
The values of the refs are intact but they are invalid
Anyone have any Idea what I am describing?
Thank You
PS: I hope this isn't simply Labview not running. How can that be when I am using the object inspector. I don't yet get it.

No I do not think it is an error.
It turns out the queue and DAQ Task references go invalid because of the relationship of the endevo GOOP object to LabVIEW. (or so it seems) I think it is because the VI that created the object goes idle and so LabVIEW assumes the ref is no longer needed (despite any options settings. )
I am seeing the objects in the Goop repository however references to queues and Data acquisition tasks are invalidated as
soon as the VI that uses them goes idle.
It does not seem to afffect field point references or VIsa com ports and also all other data in the goop object seems fine. I guess thats because FP and VIsa are only strings
Its a real snag to me because I did not see it coming. Now I have to create the queue and reestablish the Daq tasks to insure it is valid
after the create method even if the object exists.
I prefer to use the create or look up existing feature of the method because it gives a lot of flexibility.
Thank You

Sending calls to a second queue?

It seems like i could do this a couple different ways, just trying to find a best practice...
2 support desks (support desk Chicago and support desk Denver)
Support desk Denver is already up and running on it's own script and CSQ
Support desk Chicago is new, it will have it's own CSQ and script (same UCCX server). However, we want to make sure that in the event of issues at Chicago, calls would be redirected to Denver (no agents logged in, wait times in excess of 10min, etc).
My Chicago script currently has all those contigencies pointing to a "goto:denver_redirect"
The question is what to do from that label (denver_redirect) onward...
Do i just create a second queue in Chicago's script that mirrors the same queue environment as Denver's? Is there anything to be concerned about having two scripts(Chicago and Denver) pump calls into a single CSQ (Denver)?
Or do i just do a call redirect to Denver's Unified CM Trigger from the Chicago script?
Thanks!

Given that we usually serve more than one master when designing call-flows (Call Routing, Reporting, Workforce Management), I would at least consider the impact it would have on call-type and SLA reporting. To name a couple of things off the top of my best practice list:
1. Consider primary and secondary skills (this will allow for load-balancing as well)
2. Having a seperate script will allow more flexibility in sovling for business requirements around call-routing
3. The more CSQ's, the more reporting

CCMS monitoring for Queues(SMQ1/SMQ2)

Hi,
How do we monitor Queues(SMQ1/SMQ2) in CCMS. My requirement is to monitor Queues(SMQ1/SMQ2) in CCMS based on the Queue name. I want to create different nodes in CCMS and I want queue name falling under certain criteria should come and sit in the respective node of CCMS.
Means queue with name High_priority should come n sit under node say Test1, queue name with medium_priority should come n sit under node say Test2 and queue name with medium_priority should come n sit under node say Test3.
Is it possible to do so.

Hello,
also for queue monitoring the easier and more flexible way to monitor is via Business Process Monitoring. The configuration is easier than CCMS where you have to use transaction RZ21 and need to transport objects. And the qRFC monitoring is more flexible than in the CCMS. Basically all customers knowing both standard CCMS qRFC monitoring and qRFC monitoring in BPMon chose the later or exchange their existing CCMS monitoring by BPMon.
See also the SDN blog /people/johannes.fleig/blog/2008/06/11/new-business-process-monitoring-functionalities-in-sap-solution-manager-150-qrfc-monitoring

Notifiers VS Queues

Hello all!
I have a pretty simple question... what is the main difference between notifiers and queues? Which should I use in which case? Are queues preferable to pass data? Anyways, you get the point!
Thanks in advance!
Yohan

OK, not so little of an application. The single loop construct is fine if you're doing a single UI VI since in this case you're not really doing much. In your case you're probably going to need some form of state machine construct, which is where the producer/consumer architecture will come into play. It will give you the flexibility to adjust and expand the program in the future.
As for whether you should use notifiers or queue, that's a call that you will need to make. If your consumer loop is going to be performing a background process you need to use queues. For example, I created a LabVIEW-based test executive for the RF testing we're doing here since we don't have (and are unwilling to buy) TestStand. It uses a producer/consumer architecture with the consumer running a test sequence as well as responding to messages placed in the queue by event handler in the producer loop. Since the consumer loop is running a backgroung process you can't use notifiers in this case. Very simple framework, but extremely efficient, robust, and easy to modify. My suggestion is to use queues as in most cases you end up needing to expand the program in the long run. You don't really lose anything by using queues, and really gain quite a bit.
To the rest of the community: Perhaps someone else may be able to provide additional tips?

Should the async dispatcher queues be distributed?

I have a WLI application with several JPDs in it. So, Workshop automatically
          creates AsyncDispatcher and AsyncDispatcher_error queues for it. The
          question is: how should I configure trhese queues in a clustered env? AFAIK,
          it is recomended to deploy WLI queues on each managed server in the cluster.
          Ok, but should I combine, say, AsyncDispather@JMS_auto_1 and
          AsyncDispather@JMS_auto_2 physical distinations into the one AsyncDispather
          distributed destination or not?
          Thanks, Denis.

Same true for Stack. an add(int index) would break
the deffinition of a Stack. so i think Java choose
flexibility. However, i would rather that Stack and
Queue be their own type of class.I think it was just a bad OO. Extending a class to reuse the code. A Stack is not a Vector. The same goes for Properties.
Stack, Queue, Map, Set, Bag, List
for me, none of these are related and should have
diferent API.I agree for the most part. A List can be used to implement a Queue and a Stack. But instead extending List or Collection, they should have used encapsulation for a basic implementation.
The JDK tends to not use encapsulation very well.

Public synonym (or similar) for message queue?

I have problems enqueueing (and dequeueing) from a queue in a different schema than the enqueuer's/dequeuer's.
If i only write the queue name
DBMS_AQ.ENQUEUE( queue_name => TheQueue,
and so on... );
I get the exception
ORA-25205: The Queue MyUser.TheQueue does not exist.
If I also supply the schema name
DBMS_AQ.ENQUEUE( queue_name => TheSchema.TheQueue),
and so on... );
it all works fine.
For flexibility, I would like to omit the schema name. I tried creating a public synonym for the queue.
CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM TheQueue FOR TheQueue;
This does not give an error, but when executing
DBMS_AQ.ENQUEUE( queue_name => TheQueue,
and so on... );
I get an execption
SP2-0749: Cannot resolve circular path of synonym TheQueue
I get the same exception when I do
DESC synonymName
as the owner or another user.
The procedure which executes the enqueue is executed as definer (not current_user).
Does anyone have an idea how to be able to skip the schema name for the queue when enqueueing/dequeueing?
Thanks,
Lena

There is no way for do that. See "Synonyms on queue tables and queue" on "Application Developers Guide- Advanced queuing"

No records written to Asset Accounting delta queues 0FI_AA_11 or 0FI_AA_12

Hi,
I did an init load from R/3 to BI with data transfer successfully.
BADI FIAA_BW_DELTA_UPDATE is active in R/3.
My users created asset accounting transactions in R/3 and I can see records in changed tables BWFIAA_AEDAT_AS, BWFIAA_AEDAT_AB and BWFIAA_AEDAT_TR.
However, I am seeing 0 record in the delta queues 0FI_AA_11 or OFI_AA_12 via RSA7.
The delta load into BW therefore brought in 0 record.
Could you please advise on what may go wrong or how we can get records written to the delta queues to be extracted into BW?
Thanks,
Phyllis

Phyllis,
For Asset Accounting Delta Extracton you first need to have this BADI - FIAA_BW_DELTA_UPDATE active in the system:
Check the link below for more details about the badi and the delta extraction procedure.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a8/f4153c4eb5d82ce10000000a114084/frameset.htm
Sequence of Data Requests
For summarization of line items by master record characteristics (such as cost center) during posting of ODS objects to InfoCubes, master data must already exist prior to extraction of transaction data.
Also the following sequence must therefore be kept to during extraction:
1. 0FI_GL_4                            General Ledger: line items (if required)
2. 0ASSET_ATTR_TEXT          Asset subnumber (flexible updating)
3. 0ASSET_AFAB                  Depreciation area real or derived
Then the transaction data
0FI_AA_11               FIAA : transactions and / or
0FI_AA_12               Posted depreciations (period values)
Hope it helps

Hi,
your queue limit is 20 packets. This can explain the behaviour. If there are 20 packets in the queueing system waiting to be serviced any newly arriving packet will be dropped.
Basically you can have drops in any queue in any queueing system if there is a permanent overload situation. There is no magic trick, if you f.e. permanently send 2 Mbps voip towards a T1. There will be drops.
QoS does not create resources, it just distributes them among your important traffic classes.
Besides this I also would suggest you to use class based queueing based on Modular QoS CLI (MQC). It is more flexible and precise than the old legacy methods like priority queueing, which you are using. On the other hand, if this is sufficient for you, why not.

Actor framework strictly typed message queues?

I'm just getting to grasps with the Actor framework. I have implemented "similar" stuff in the past but I've approached it differently.
One thing I noticed was how easy it is to send a message to an incompatible actor core which results in a nasty run-time "to more specific class" error.
In the example project included with LV 2012, if I make the change shown below (OK, I am purposely senidng a wrong message on the given queue) I get no feedback from the IDE that an incompatible message is being sent ont he queue. I think this has to do with the Message queues being for the base actor class.
Is there no way to have the actual queues more strictly typed so that we can say that Launching Actor Beta will result in a Queue reference which is only compatible with Beta (or children) objects or does this ruin the entire concept? If possible, it would prevent the ability oto send incompatible messages completely which IMHO would be an enormous benefit.
The presentations on the Actor framework have shown huge benefits in strict typing of state machines (I'm referring to a couple of videos I've seen ont he NI website) but this element of things seems to be just a pokey as a string flatten and unflatten. Send the wrong message to the wrong receiver and >bang< run-time error.
Just thinking out loud.
Shane.

Messages from Callee to Caller
When a caller wants to send a message to the callee, the caller knows the type of the actor that it launched, so caller can easily choose the right type of message to send. But when an actor wants to send a message to its caller, the actor does not necessarily know what type of caller it has, so it does not know what type of message to send. Ideally, actors should be usable by many different callers. That maximizes code reuse. But making the actor truly independent of the caller requires more effort than is warranted for the situation. There are three techniques for defining messages that an actor sends to its caller
The High Coupling Solution—In this solution, the callee actor is written specifically for one type of caller, and can never be used with any other type of caller. In this case, the callee knows details about the caller's interface, so it may simply call the Send Message VI of the appropriate message. The message type is thus hardcoded into the actor.
The Low Coupling Solution—This solution works best when you have a known inheritance hierarchy of callers. In this solution, you create a matching hierarchy of callee actors. So suppose you have callers Hard Drive, Air Conditioner, and Fire Suppression, each of which needs to launch a Fan actor. You would create the Fan class, and then inherit from it Fan For Hard Drive, Fan For Air Conditioner, and Fan For Fire Suppression. Each caller launches its specific callee actor. All of the main Fan class' code is shared, but when it comes time to send messages, the Fan class has a dynamic dispatch method for doing the sending, and each of the children overrides that method to send the message appropriate for its caller. Each callee is still coupled to a specific caller, but the system as a whole is flexible to accommodate new caller types.
The Zero Coupling Solution—In order to make the callee actor independent from the caller, the caller must tell the callee what types of messages to send so the callee avoids picking a type itself. The best implementation of this solution has the caller record a message into the callee at the time the callee is launched. The callee provides a Set <Type> Message.vi method, where <Type> is the particular event that will trigger the message to be sent. The caller sets the exact message it wants to receive when this event occurs. When the event happens, the callee sends the chosen message, without any knowledge of what kind of caller is receiving that message.
Often the callee will define an abstract Message class that it uses as the input type for Set <Type> Message.vi. Callers create their own specific child of this abstract class. This setup gives the callee a way to set data into the message through the API defined by the abstract class, and gives the message a way to deliver that data in a form the caller can consume through the various overload and extension VIs.
Would it be possible to get some examples of the three different approaches to typing of the messages? I'm aiming for the high coupling solution (with the option of slipping to option 2 through common ancestors) in order to provide the ability to detect wrong messages on wrong queues at edit time.

MII Queue for ME Interfaces

All,
I am not sure whether this question will fit under MII forum. If not, please ignore it.
All data communication between ECC and ME is executed via MII SAPMEINT package and error/logs are managed in MII Queue Monitor.
My question is,
Is it possible to leverage MII Queue Monitor function to other custom interfaces that we plan to build between legacy and ME system via MII.
If yes, then how difficult would be. I thought it would be feasible to use MII queue monitor function to track the error logs for this custom interfaces if the efforts are minimum.
Thanks
Mahesh

I am pretty sure that the Queue Monitor is purpose built for ME specifically for the SAPMEINT interface. I think you will find more people familiar with it on the ME forum.
But having said that, have you looked at the user exits for the interface? There is some customization capability built into most of the ME interfaces using MII. You may find that there is enough flexibility there to accomodate your Legacy interfaces. I know that there are some built-in, but sadly have not worked with them directly.
Regards,
Mike
