Generate MDM_GID using ABAP API

Hi all!
Does anybody know how to generate unique MDM_ID while loading records to MDM from BI using ABAP API (it is done automatically when using OHD , but when doing manually - no idea).
I tried to call INVOKE_STRATEGIES but nothing happened.

How to read records from Relationship table using ABAP API's

Hi All,
I need to retrieve the records from Relationship table. In Java API's I came to know there is an option to retrieve this. I could not find anything in ABAP API's. Is there any option in ABAP API's to do this.
Please Suggest.
Thank You,
Gajendra.

Hi Gajendra,
You can mainly read records from MDM (in a DDIC structure) using ABAP API's using the following function modules/methods:
1. RETRIEVE: This is used to generically retrieve records from tables. Attributes and Values can also be retrieved.
2. RETRIEVE SIMPLE: Retrieve records from MDM in a simple way.( simple data types).
3. RETRIEVE CHECKOUT: Retrieves all checked out ID's.
4. RETRIEVE ATTRIBUTES: Retrieves attribute(s) from a Taxanomy table.
You will find all these methods in the following interface
Interface : IF_MDM_CORE_SERVICES
Hope it helps.

To generate PDF using BI APIs and loadjava utility

Hi All,
I am trying to generate PDF using BI APIs(FOProcessor etc).
I have generated XML data through the PL/SQl procedure and storing it in a file. This file is loacted in database tier.
The APIs is used through a simple java program which is application tier. To test the process, I had to manually provide the XML file to the java class in order to generate PDF and it does generate.
Now the issue is I need to load the java class to the database so that everything gets automated(loadjava utlility).
when i try to do it, it give no class found error.
Do I need to load the referenced classes in the java file , that is, FOProcessor,RTFProcessor,FOUtility,jdbc.driver.OracleDriver as well?
If the above is not possible, is it possible to reference a file in database tier from application tier so that i can use the XML file as input the java class in application tier.
thanks,
Srik

The only reason I am responding to this post is because the poster sent me a request through the forum message system asking for my help.
Although I did populate PDFs with FDF data generated by web forms a year or so ago, I have since abandoned that kind of solution. It was a big headache. I found it far more stable and flexible to use html, php and css to populate forms that are almost as nice looking as PDFs.
So my advice is, if you can possibly avoid going the FDF/PDF route, you will be better off.

Matching Strategy by using ABAP API

Hi,
Actually we have a requirement to check the matching strategy by using MDM from R/3 ABAP program by using MDM ABAP APIs.
In our case there would be bulk number customer's comes into R/3, We need to run matching strategy for De-Duplication of customers.
By Using ABAP APIs, Is there any provision to pass Multiple customers at a time to MDM to find Matching records (I know it is possible for one Customer at a time).

Callable objects using ABAP API

hi,
Is it possible to develop Callable objects for MDM using ABAP APIs?
Regards
Nisha

Hi Nisha,
As far as I know, itu2019s not possible. You can use just RFC/BAPI as external services CO or ABAP Web Dynpro (this CO is limited regarding output parameters).
MDM offers two APIS for Java development:
1) MDM4J API, which is an old API and will be discontinued from MDM 7.1
2) MDM Java API that is recommended
With this API you can create Java Libraries or/and Web Services to re use into your CO.

API to generate password using Siteminder API and the password policy

Is there any API in siteminder to generate a password using the Password policies defined ?

Hello Jim,
The way you are going about your coding sounds correct. Per your second question, MAX installs when you update the computer drivers. To do this go to ni.com/drivers, search for DAQmx, and then download the most current version of DAQmx that is compatible with your computers. By installing a newer version of DAQmx MAX will automatically be updated.

Hello Ashok,
[here|https://help.sap.com/javadocs/MDM/current/com/sap/mdm/examples/CreateField.html] is the Java API of the needed command.
There is also an example of how to create a field. You can use the class by replacing the strings for the server, repository, table, etc. to your needs.
If you want to create more than one field, simply use a loop, like the for-loop, while-loop, etc.
Hope this helps.

Create CDATA Section through the document and append it to the Script Element..
Element script = doc.createElement("script");
script.setAttribute("type","text/ecmascript");
script.appendChild(doc.createCDATASection("function rect_click(id){appletHost.getSelectedRectId(id);}"));
doc.getDocumentElement().appendChild(script);

Trigger MDM Workflow Using MDM ABAP API

Hi ,
I have requriment to trigger MDM Workflow from ABAP , Please suggest how to do it ?'
Thanks in Advance.
Shyam.

Hi,
Are you creating material in MDM using Data Manager or Portal. or Using ABAP API.
If your workflow trigger Action is "Record Create" then it should trigger workflow as soon as new material is created. I don't see any problem in this.

Abap API

Hi All,
I am working on a scenario where I need to use abap api to fetch data from mdm system.
Here have coded to fetch data from mdm system and done the required configurations in mdmapic transaction. but I get a dump.
It says "BSEI_MSG_BADCRC" error.
Kindly someone help me resolve this error.
I have done mdmapic configuration to use the provider class of sp06 . I also used the provider class of sp05 .both give the same error.
The build of SAPMDM is 5.5.40.83 and the provider class of spo5 in mdmapic has a build 5.5.42.79 .should the provider system have the same build . I also checked for add on with that build in service market place. It was not available.
Regards
Sudheendra

Hi,
I strongly feel it comes just because of Version Mis-matching. Your MDM Server and Provider Class shold be of same Version. as CRC always indicates Version Mismatching.
E.g. For MDM server version 5.5 SP6 patch1 then install MDM_Tech 5.5.5_640:patch004 or MDM_Tech 5.5.5_700:patch004 as per your R/3 system release.
you could check it using HowTo_07. pdf , on executing this report you could know connection to your MDM Server is estabilishing Properly or not. here in this report you have to change one Parameter logical object name which you have given in transaction MDMAPIC
you could find more Add-on patch on Service Market Place while searching in Searching for All Categories. here search using MDM_TECH
Hope it will Help you,
Rewards if useful....

ABAP API MDM vs Standard MDM !!!

Maybe the expression that I am using is not the best one and hope that someone can give me any clarifications.
What I am intending is to know:
1)     If using ABAP API is the best way to implement MDM purposes or if hes an alternative to implement MDM using ABAP API?
2)     In the proof of concept that I am implementing, I only use the principal components of MDM (Import, Data Manager, Syndicator and Console) in order to find the solution of our enterprise business.
3)     Using ABAP API, I have to use programming method, implement by myself some functionalities in ABAP to connect and resolve my MDM purposes.
4)     If am not using ABAP API (The way that I am proceeding right now) , I have to use the standard software component (enterprises services ) of the R3 Systems in order to connect MDM with client systems.
Thanks guy for your assistance. We just want to know the best way to proceed with MDM .

The best method for implementing MDM depends on the requirements of each scenario. For example, if you have a program in R/3 that needs to pull some data from MDM for analysis then perhaps using the ABAP API would be the best route to take. If you need to transfer materials or vendors from MDM to various R/3 systems, perhaps using XI would be the best route to take. I would recommend looking at the <a href="https://websmp106.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700004656452006E">IT Scenario Configuration Guide</a> to get a better understanding of SAP's recommended practices given different scenarios
