Global Attribute Usage -- Customization (Order Line level)

Hi All,
We have a requirement to capture some additional fields during order creation. We have already exhausted the attribute fields in the oe_order_lines_all table. So we are unable to create DFF using any of attribute fields.
To achieve the functionality, we are analyzing the usage of global_attribute field. We have few doubts before using it,
1. What is the significance of global_attribute fields. Can we use in DFF as we use Attribute fields
2. Does oracle ever use the global_attribute fields for any of its purpose.
Please provide some insight in using the global_attribute fields for our customization.
Thanks,
Rajesh SM.

Hi Rajesh,
I hope you would have got the solution for the same by now. I am also facing the same situation what you faced. We have consumed all attributes in OE_ORDER_HEADERS_ALL and would need minimum 4 more attributes for adding a new functionality which is required by business.
I raised and SR with oracle asking if it is possible to extend the Order header DFF and got following response
It is NOT possible to extend the available DFF columns since this will mean adding further columns to the base table which is not supported.
I can give the below suggestions for your requirement.
It might be easier to revisit your existing DFF fields and make better use of them - e.g.
- any that are not user enterable or displayed, push to unused fields e.g. global_attributeXX
- ensure context sensitivity is being used to make best use of available segments.
- combine any related DFFs into one (often in combination with validation sets)
- move any DFFs that are at a lower level of detail to the correct level of detail, eg. if it can be on the customer site rather than customer site use level, move it!
Some updates to DFF fields may be necessary, but much easier than modifications.
I am still in a fix to find the best possible solution. Can you please suggest how did you resolve the issue?

Manual override option for Unit selling price in Order line level.

In OM R-12
Our client wants manual override option for Unit selling price in Order line level.
But there is no solution available to fulfill this requirment. To be able to manually override the price on a Sales Order line you
must have defined a manual modifier that qualifies for the Sales Order line in question. Without a suitable manual modifier the price cannot be changed.
This is current standard functionality.
Anybody can give some suggestion/workaround to override selling price in Order header level without using the modifiers.
regards,

Hi Kashif,
I'm finding it little difficult to buy Oracle Support's feedback with regards to R12 functionality for direct List Price update without using any modifier (manual or whatever). After all it is Oracle's product and they should know better. But test results in Solution Beacon's Vision 12.0.6 instance (http://www.solutionbeacon.com/tools_r12vision.htm) and documentation updates in R12 (R12.0.4) OM user guide & implementation manuals potray a different picture.
After your last post, I did a test in Solution Beacon's Vision 12.0.6 instance with following details:
OM: List Price Override Privilege = "Unlimited Access" at user level
OM: Discounting Privileges = "None" at user level
No manual modifiers defined and Order status = "Entered"
I could display the "List Price" field from folder under Line Items >> Main tab, override the list price to a new value and save. The unit selling price showed the new value based on updated List Price as soon as I tabbed out of the list price field after overriding. After saving it showed the new selling price. _Please note that under Line Items >> Pricing tab there is another "List Price" field and that is not editable_. For such overrides "View Adjustments" (from Line >> Actions) will not show any adjustment details as it is a direct update of list price.
Also please note that, if "Enforce List Price" checkbox is selected for the order type, the list price cannot be overridden even if the profile option is set to "Unlimited Access".

+Note: Note: If any order line for an order has the Calculate Price Flag value equal to Partial Price or Freeze Price new order level adjustments will not be applied or allowed to be overridden. _The profile option OM: List Price Override Privilege controls your ability to override the unit list price. If you have this profile set to Unlimited, you may modify the unit list price by editing the current value displayed_. The original list price is saved in a hidden folder field, so you can display it if necessary+.

User Procedures
_A new profile option, OM: List Price Override Privilege controls whether or not you can update the List Price_. It is enabled and updated at the application, responsibility and user level. It is not user visible and updatable. The values include+:
- View Only: This is the default value. If set to this value, the current behavior is retained, which means unit list price field is protected.
- Unlimited Privilege: If set to this value, you can override the unit list price field from the main tab and immediately see selling price adjusted accordingly.
To use Override List Price:
+1. Navigate to the Sales Orders/Quick Sales Orders window.+
+2. Enter the header and line information, including the ordered item and quantity, then tab to the next field. The Selling Price and List Price display+.
+3. If the profile is set to Unlimited Privilege, you can enter a new list price in the List Price field. You can either proceed to the next line or save your work+.
+4. You can see the new, entered list price, and if there are automatic discounts applied, they will be based on the new list price+.
+5. If the folder has been modified to show the Original List Price, the original list price displays+.
+6. To change the List Price again, go to the list price field and enter a new value, replacing a previously entered value. If Audit Trail is enabled for List Price and a reason is required, a window appears to enter a reason and optional comments+.
Note: Subsequent overrides of the List Price, after the order line is saved, can be captured by Audit Trail, depending on the setup of Audit Trail (entered or booked state) and any processing constraints that have been set up.
In the OM Implementation Manual also there are notes related to this.

Sales Order - Line Level Information in Info cube

Hi BW Guru's,
We are using the following scenario: -
Info cube = Sales Order Line level information (yes, we want to capture the product level sales order information in info cube for our internal reporting purpose)
ODS = NO. we are not using the same
Info Source Same as data source (standard one)
Data Source 2LIS_11_VAITM (standard business content data source for sales order information)
Delta in above data source = contract related information (5 extra fields) working fine added as append structure in the data source
Extractor = Standard using SBIW - Perform setup - SD Sales Order (SD 11)
Number of Sales order line records / month = 80,000
Historical Sales order data to be uploaded = 1 year = 80,000 * 12 = Nearly 1 Million records
Hardware Configuration = 4 * 750 MHZ, 8 GB RAM
Please advice on the following things: -
1) How long it will take to upload 1 million records in BW?
2) Does our server capacity sufficient enough to take 1 million load?
3) Which delta procedure should we follow for day to day Sales Order line level data updation? Please advice on data selection procedure.
4) In case, last month Sales Order is changed, how to reflect the same in our info cube? Please suggest the suitable method.
Waiting for your reply.
Thanks
Rajiv

Hi Rajiv,
1) How long it will take to upload 1 million records in BW?
This depends on your network, on the width of your data record, the performance of your machine, on the settings for communication between BW and R/3 ....
It can be done in 2 hours, in 3 hours, it can take a whole day. There is no exact answer possible.
2) Does our server capacity sufficient enough to take 1 million load?
If your disc space is enough, no problem. If you already loaded your master data, there is not too much space necessary to load the transactional data.
3) Which delta procedure should we follow for day to day Sales Order line level data updation? Please advice on data selection procedure.
Just run your initial setup and initialize your delta. Run a daily delta package (this is what most companies do).
4) In case, last month Sales Order is changed, how to reflect the same in our info cube? Please suggest the suitable method.
The extractor takes care about this, just post the delta to your cube, that's it.
Hope this helps,
regards
Siggi

Update Unit Price at Order Line Level

Hi Sir, Ma'am,
Is there a way to enable user to update the Unit Price at Order Line Lever without updating the Price List?
Thanks in Advance,
Nuel

You can also enable the different adjustment (Manaully update allowed) so that you can use the same and update the unit selling price.
This will keep the price list as it is and it will show unit list price for item as Origanl Price.

Global Attribute Usage in IMPL class

Hi,
Can I declare an attirbute in the IMPL class and use it in two different context nodes of the same component?
Actually, my requirement is to retrieve the value of an attribute in CN1 and use it in the GET_I_ method of an attribute in CN2.
The approach that I'm following is to retrieve the value of attib1, pass it into the global attribute, and then use this global attribute in GET_I_ method of attrib2 in CN2.
Is this feasible?
Any pointers to this would be highly appreciated.
TIA.
Regards,
Richa

Your approach is feasible !
Thanks
Allot points if this helps!

Order Lines Descriptive Flexfield

We import our orders from an external system. We have many additional attributes to store at the order line level. We have already used all 20 Segments on the Additional Line Information Descriptive Flexfield but we still have more attributes to store.
Is there somewhere else we can store these values? On another DFF or some other solution.?

You can create a custom table with the order_line_id as the primary key. And you can store your additional data in columns of this table.
The data won't be visible in the seeded OE form. You will have to write a custom screen that shows data. It will be very easy to create a ZOOM from the OE screens that opens your custom form to show data for a given order line.
There are global_attribute fields that are typically used by Oracle for localizations. If you do not have any localizations, you can try using them.
Hope this answers your question

Discount Modifiers application @ Order Line

Hi All
I have requirement, where business needs to apply discounts @ order line level based on customer DFF ( Saying yes or no) and Order DFF(%) modifiers should apply automatically the % based on the inputs@Order DFF and Customer DFF, once its applied, additionally, after the booking process, down the line if we are adding new order lines, user should not be able to apply any discount/modifiers ( need to restrict users)
Is this possible in R12
Please let me know
Krishna

I believe this would be possible. You'd have to create a custom pricing attribute based on the customer DFF to be used as a qualifier for your modifier. Then I would attempt to use the "Get Custom Price" formula to do the calculation based on the order DFF. I'm not 100% clear on the requirements you stated about restricting users later - if you set the calculate_price field to "Frozen" on the order line, the pricing for that line will not change.

Update a Customise status massage/Qty in Sales Order line at PGI

Dear Gurus,
We are new to SD and we are willing to implement a status update or the PGI Qty in the Sales order line level, at a PGI by using a Out bound Delivary or shipment document. We are willing to customise condition group field (VBKD-KDKG1) in addtional data A. is there a posibility of doing this or any other solution we can do for this. Your kind replies will be highly appriciated at this time.
Thank.....
Pubudu & Jeewana.

Hi,
It is possible through user-exit/Badi.
To update PGI Status you can use user-exit "MB_CF001-Customer Function Exit in the Case of Updating a Mat. Doc." Or you can use BAdi "MB_DOCUMENT_UPDATE".
To update Shipment document status you can use BAdi "BADI_LE_SHIPMENT-BadI: Shipment Processing".
But how will you handle the partial delivery cases?

Sales Order Line Flow Status Code

Hi All,
When the sales order is "Pick confirmed", why the Sales Order Line Level Flow Status Code remain "AWAITING_SHIPPING" in table level.
Thanks
Ram
Edited by: ram on Dec 2, 2008 3:15 PM

Ram
When the order line is in shipping process, there can be many stages it can go through. Those stages or statuses you can find in the delivery details. As far as the order line is concerned, the line is in shipping area.
On the screen you see the status as Picked, because they use the order line status in conjunction with the delivery detail status to show that.
Thanks

Line level Order type by Oracle iStore

We have requirement to have different order types at line level based on item Ordered. Is it possible without customization such that...
Order Header Order type = Standar Order
Order Line Order type -
Line 1 - Billing only order type
Line 2- Standard Order type.
Appreciate your help.

thanks for reply. We are on 11.5.10.
Does any one confirm where the Order type is being picked for iStore? is that from customer set up or ASO: Default order type profile at responsibility level?

Reg: Sale Order short close at Schedule lines level

Dear Gurus,
Requirement is to close all open schedule lines beyond one month.
In detailed. User Enters Manual Schedule Lines as per the requirement of the customer say for 6 months.
for Eg . Sale order entered on 1st of august to Dec with 500 qty, schedule 100 qty/Month, manually in sale order.
Now if business delivers only 90 out of 100. they need to short close that particular schedule line only not the entire sale order or line item. I tried with Delivery block at schedule lines level. but it is not working.
If any one has come across this scenario please share with me.
Regards
Praveen

If we apply a delivery block the pending qty will automatically add to the last schedule date. Ex. if there is 3 dates in the schedule lines, and there is some 50 qty pending in second date, and if u apply delivery block it will carry forward that pending 50 qty to the third schedule line and adds up with it.
But in my case i just want to close that pending 50 qty in second line item.
Regards
Praveen

Transferring order header level details to line level details

I know, that by creating an order, the order header information is the 'default' information for the lines. What that means is that all the information at the header level, i.e. Freight terms, etc...will default to the lines.
But when an order already exists and I change some field in Order Header level, changes are not automatically transferred to Order Lines.
For example, customer requirement is to change ship method for existing order. I change Ship Method on Order Header, but then I must go to Line details and change Ship method on every line. Is there any way, how to change order lines details automatically after Order header update?
Thank you

SPRO - SD - Billing - Billing Plan - the first 5 config nodes (Define Billing Plan types / Define Date descriptions / Assign Date categories / Maintain Date Proposals / Assign Billing Plan types to Sales Doc types) are applicable to you.
this is pretty tranparent for a reference.
What else is required?

OM: Apply Hold after new a order line on line level..

Hi All,
There is an issue that we have to apply hold on line level when order is changed.(include update line or new line)
And we try to use trigger(with PRAGMA AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION) to call Apply Hold API.
It work when existed order lines are changed.
But it not work when new a order line, at the after-insert moment, it CAN NOT apply Hold on this immature order line.
How can we fulfill this requirement?
Or the requirement is nonsense...
Any suggestion will be appreciated.
