Function is obsolete (successor: SAP_WAPI_DECISION_COMPLETE)

Hi All,
I'm getting the above when i'm trying to make my decision through UWL for travel request.
The workitem status goes into reserved.
Can anyone share the solution if anyone has already faced similar issue?
Thanks & Regards,
- Raj

Hello,
Do you get that all the time? If so, it sounds like UWL is using a superseded function.
Reserved? As if the user reserved the workitem? Or do you mean In Process?

UWL workitem error: you are not a receiver of the work item

I have created a workflow with 2 decision steps. When testing the workflow through the SAP inbox (SAP Business Workplace), when the first agent approve the workitem, it is forwarded to the second agent who can also approve or refuse the workitem, which then ends the workflow.
When testing the same process in the portal UWL, the first agent receive the workitem and approve it. The second agent receive then the workitem, but when I open it to approve it, I have this error message: "you are not receiver of the workitem" !!
How come I am the right receiver of the workitem in R/3 and not in the portal ? We are using a CUA so users in the portal and R/3 are the same, the webflow connector is working, SSO has been set up.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Thibault

I have registered a UserDecisionHandler to display the task. Now the error message is gone and I am the receiver of the workitem. But the new problem is that when I try to approve or reject the workitem, I get this new error message:
Function is obsolete (successor: SAP_WAPI_DECISION_COMPLETE). It looks like the handler is trying to use a former function but I have no idea where I can find which function is called to process the decision.
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Approve failed in UWL

We are using UWL to approve or reject travel request.
If I click on approve button I get a message as Approve failed .Same for reject also,
If I check the checkbox for approve and click submit decision button I get an error as "Function is obsolete(successor:SAP_WAPI_Decision _Complete)"
I checked the webflow connector system alias it is Sap_Webdynpro_Xss
The RFC destination for the same is also maintained in visual admin.
However when I test the system I get ITS and connection test successful but the webAs test fails.
In WebAS properties the webAs path is mentioned as /webdynpro/dispatcher.
Do we need to activate any service in SICF for this ?
Please suggest .I feel the error is somewhere linked to this WebAS test failure.
Thanks in advance;

Upgrade: Finding ALL obsolete function modules in ECC6

Hello everyone,
Is there a way to find ALL obsolete function modules in ECC6?
I have seen a few web pages posting a small list of obsolete function modules but they are not complete.
I have also tried querying table TFTIT for short text such as 'OBSOLETE' and 'Do not use'. However, some obsolete function modules do not leave any clue in the description at all such as WWW_GET_MIME_OBJECT.
However, if you go to SE37 to view WWW_GET_MIME_OBJECT, you will notice that the SAP screen displays it as 'Function obsolete' under the General Data tab.
I have tried to debug the SE37 transaction to see which flag determines if a function is obsolete but I was not able to find it.
Any one has any ideas? Thanks a lot!

Hi Oscean,
Check table RODIR where objecttype = FUNC and Obsolete = X.
Thanks

Delete obsolete combinations in /SAPAPO/MC62 - how to use?

Hello SAP-experts,
We are using SAP APO Demand planning SAP SCM 7.0 with SP 15 for most of components.
I have some questions related to the button "delete obsolete combinations" in TA /SAPAPO/MC62. We want to use option "list combinations without planning data" to reduce CVC's quantity. What I have read it checks for CVC's without any entries at key figures. It sounds useful, but it doesn't seem to work in our company for some reason.
1. Where exactly does system check if there are key figures for the selected CVC's? In livecache directly? Or in an internal generated info cube for the planning area? Is it possible to view these key figures (on same base as done from system with option "list combinations without planning data") before using the deletion? Is there a report / table to do so? What's the best practise for this check (maybe on daily base)?
2. I have (some) CVC's without any key figure filled (for my opinion...). At the moment I check this with an info cube used for daily backup (means I see always the data from last night and I know that noone changed data because of blocked planning access). But it isn't found with "list combinations without planning data". When displaying the data in this backup-cube all key figures are shown as zero (the one which are shown for deletion and in same way the cvc's which are not shown). In the key figure settings "differentiation between zero and initial value" is not marked... I think this is correct, but maybe I have a misunderstanding here... any ideas about this setting? I don't believe this setting is wrong, because it shows me some CVC's to be deleted, but some of them are not shown (the setting should work for all cvc's in same way...?).
All ideas are most welcome, thank you all in advance!
Best regards
Harald Leissl

Hello Ali,
thank you for your reply!
My plan was to use standard tool, because it's available since some releases. I don't prefer to implement own programming instead of using an existing tool (talking about the built ABAP tool, the idea with alert makro sounds good).
Is the standard tool effective??? Good question. We talk about 2 steps.
If the mentioned function "delete obsolete" would work like designed (maybe it does, but I don't understand how...) it would do 2 steps combined:
- find out obsolete CVC's (your alert makro)
- delete obsolete CVC's (your ABAP tool)
Combining these 2 steps would be really effective, but it doesn't work for some reason. My estimation is that standard is not effective, because complete process of deletions of CVC's is very slow and causes sometimes performance trouble.
But this is the reason why I search for a standard tool to run periodically (maybe each week) for a check of "old" CVC's. I think our problem of slow running deletions is caused by too many CVC's in an planning object structure (together with the fact that our CVC's have a lot of key figures / characteristics).
To be honest my main task is to find the best possibility to delete a list of completely different CVC's (no unique selection possible). I tested a lot of things found in SCN (realignment, background deletion,...), but all the solutions have s lack in performance (at least in our system...).

Harald

Hi Experts, replace function module WS_QUERY to return the name of OS?

Hi Experts,
the function WS_QUERY can return your computer operating system, you can try it SE37(WS_QUERY), and only give value 'OS' to the QUERY parameter and execute the function, you can see it in RETURN parameter, but now this function is obsolete and I must replace it with another function or method, can anyone of you tell me which function can totally(the return value need to be the same, but any valuable feedback is also welcome) replace it? thanks in advance!
Kind regards

Nokia N95 8 Gigs "The Phone that got forgotten"

Dear Nokia Support,
After I have bought this phone, I was not as please with the price and over all service that I have received from Nokia. I didn't care that it was expensive, but the service... Lets me begin where I have bought this phone for over 24,500 baht (Central World Power Buy, Bangkok, Thailand) [new copper color, N95 8 gigs]. I've bought the phone for the look, services, GPS system, but I am sorry to say that I didn't get any of that.
Lets start from the back; the GPS system. It takes so long to get the sat. lock, not even counting the time to calculated route, I was confirm with the Nokia Customer care that it will be resolve when I upgrade the firmware to 20 something. Unfortunately, when I have upgraded my phone, the phone act very weird and GPS function take even longer than it was before; even with the aids of GPRS where it should have taken only a few mins if not less. It would taken over 5. (this function become obsolete for me, as it is not helping me in anyway)
Secondly, as it was claim on the website of Nokia that Nokia have the best Care service. It was not for me, at first it was ok, as I was in the shop to get my phone firmware update, i got premium services and being taken care off right way. The reason that I was in the shop the first time was because I was using the Windows Vista at home, Nokia Care software was not support it (talk about up to date??) The second time however was different (MBK, Bangkok, Thailand) I didn't show my phone like the first time, I simply told them that my phone need fixing. My N95 screen went blank all of the sudden, I could make call normally but I could not see anything on the screen. One of the customer rep. told me that it would take 3 hours to fix the phone. So I was very please that I was being taken care off. Before I am going further, I would like to add that I have only use this phone for little over 3 months, I have never drop the phone or expose to any wet condition, and I have always keep the phone in the leather pouch that I bought for it. Now, back to the story. One of other rep, came over and told me that she could not find me on the system and I would need my recipt to get my phone service... (wait.. I bought this phone to 3 months, yet already have service here once.. and I still need a recipt??? I was very **bleep** at that point as the way they are saying that I would not get my phone services for I have not have my recipt... eventually she went to the back and finally saw me on the system. At that point she gave me a different answer than the rep. that he was handle me before, she said this phone need to be send to the center and it will take over 2 weeks for it to be fix. After argue for a while, she said that she will need to ask the tech. and she got back to me and say that she will have the tech. try to do something to the phone (I guess replacing some hardware) for 3 hours and she will either get back to me or I have to come back in 3 hours. After 3 hours has passed, I came back to the Nokia Care Shop and ask for the status of my phone, and found that they were waiting to talk to me about the phone. She said the phone have some water stain inside, and it will not be handle by Nokia as it is void the service agreement (well, my phone have not been anywhere near water or drop anywhere, the only reason this happend is only maybe from the my sweat.) and it is going to cost me over 2,200 baht to fix the phone as water mark void the service agreement.... well my phone was void because of normal use.. and it has only been 3 month. I guess Nokia is not for me, as I can't even sweat when using the phone. and I am not talking about a lot of sweat either, because my office is always in the air conditional Building. It was not as bad if she have called me faster to lets me know this other than letting me hang around for 3 hours and ask for the status. Now I have to wait 2 weeks. This is what I got from the best of service care in thailand. Furthermore, I know I could have just walk to the other end of the mall and get my phone for maybe half the price and possibly in less than an hour. Maybe I was stupid....
That was it, maybe it was my mistakes to even pick this phone from the begining, it wasn't cheap, changing it to a dollar is over 700 dollars phone. I was left with no choice, the phone is in parts in their hand. In order to fix my phone I will have to pay for the repair... or else I would just lost that 24,500 baht that I have just invested on the phone for merely 3 monthes. I will mark that Nokia is not for me and I will never buy anymore of Nokia Product. Expensive yet not user friendly. As soon as I got my phone back from the service, I am just going to sell it.
Soravis,
very disatified customer of Nokia

Check these:
(1) Phone software version - v20 and up have better GPS handling than earlier versions, if you have earlier than that then update.
(2) Maps application version - if you have v1.2, update to v2.0 (this version will be inbuilt if your phone can update to software version 30 anyway) - this version is much improved.
(3) This model has its GPS receiver positioned beneath the keypad, rather unusually, so make sure you have the slide open when using GPS.

Can I run a 3.5 web template in the Portal

I need to use the BW 3.5 Table Interface so that I can insert a character in a column. The character I insert needs to be determined dynamically based on the data returned in the query. In BI 7.0, the Table Interface functionality is obsolete. Since I know I can do this in BW 3.5, I need to know if I can run a BW 3.5 web report in the Portal.
Thanks.
Ryan

Yes you can run on it on a portal.

Starting Stream Analtyics says output was not defined in query

I get the following error when starting my streaming analytics setup:
Stream Analytics job has validation errors: The output output used in the query was not defined. Activity Id: 'c0d50509-a2a9-4a8c-846d-5bf01b751344-2015-04-18 22:37:42Z'.
What does this error mean? And more importantly, how can I fix this?
I found some reference material using the "INTO" statement in the query, however this doesn't work for me and indicated that me query is incorrect. So I guess this function is obsolete?

The likely cause of this error is that you do not an output with the default name defined for your job.
If your SQL query does not use a named output, that is it does not use the INTO keyword that it is expected that you have a default output defined for the job (with name "output"). The error message does not tell you that clearly and that is a
bug we will work on fixing.
If your SQL query does use the INTO keyword, then you simply need to use the same name of the output as you have defined for your job. If you are running into an issue making that work please let us know.
Thanks
