Global variables for order header attributes ?

Hi Experts,
What are the names of the global variables that stores the values of order header attributes till the order creation ?
Thanks!

The attribute values are stored in the attribute columns.
1) Open the Order header screen.
2) Click on the DFF and check the DFF name.
3) Query the DFF name from the sysadmin Resp, to check the columns of attributes and the pertaining value sets.

IW32: Error getting message (Text for order header not maintain in lang.EN

Hello All,
We just starting getting this message in IW32 and IW33 stating (Text for order header not maintained in language EN) then all the pre-existing description test disappeared.
We have not done any configuration change in this particular system.
Can anyone help to resolve this.
Thanks

Hi,
As with most SAP messages it is always a good idea to trust what it is saying.
The system is telling you that KG has not been created in the English language.
Go to transaction CUNI to check the settings.
Select the Unit of measure for "MASS" (from the drop down list) and check the entries for UOMs.
KG should be there and should have an English description (the message said it was not there for EN)
If it is there and set up correctly then there might have been something else in the UOM field? You didn't enter " KG" did you (a blank character then KG?)

Use global Variable for Formatstring

Hello
I wanna use a global variable for a format string. see picture. But I don't work.
Can anybody give me an idea, why it won't work?
Thanks a lot!!!

As others said, the problem is not the global.
See attached a picture of how to do what you want. Since the Format String is unknown at edit time, you must provide the types to all inputs that are not DBL.
From your example, the while loop has been coded exactly like a for loop. It can be replaced with a for loop with auto-indexing, unless you really want the local variable to be update at each iteration every 50 ms. This delay is not necessary unless the computed array is huge and you want to leave some CPU time to other code in your application. Even then you can enter a delay of 0ms to force to swap to other tasks.
I don't know what your INT>BOOL VI does but using Scan from String you can read a number directly into a boolean. The number i
s rounded to an unsigned integer and 0 is False and >0 is True.
For example you scan a string for a boolean with format string %d.
"0" --> False
"24" --> True
"-18" -- False (coerced to unsigned = 0)
You scan a string for a boolean with format string %f:
Negative number up to "0.5" --> False (coerced and rounded to 0)
Number greater that 0.5 --> True

...and so on and so forth....
In short, I want the code within:

...to be able to access the variables I have created in:
----- form1.#subform[0]::initialize: - (FormCalc, client) ------------------------------------------
(I have assumed that this is where I would store Global variables)
At this stage, the global variables cannot be accessed with the configuration above. The only was I can get this to work is to cut and paste the global vairables into each form1.#subform[0] item, which of course defeats the purpose of global variables! I plan to have many more items so would not want to duplicate the global variables for all of them!
Can somebody show me how to do this?
Any help is very much appreciated!
Thanks

Hi MorisTM,
Thanks for the reply!
Yes, I saw that option (I should have mentioned I already knew about it), but was wondering if there is a way I can do this via code.
There are two reason I want to be able to do it via code (only one of which may be valid):
1) I can automatically generate my pricing code form another inhouse app.
2) I am hoping that later on once I get this working I will be able take it a step further and get the data directly from a MySQL database!
Cheers though!
Any other suggestions?

Pass the value of the current case in a case structure to a global variable for use in VIs.

I have built a large queued state machine (>100 cases). In each state, I run a VI that I have created. These VIs are usually not very different from one another. In many cases, I could simply use the same VI over and over again. There is only one problem with that. None of these VIs know which case to send the program to next. I have to change the value of the "NEXT_CASE" constants in the VI and save it under a new name to be inserted into each new case. Now my program consists of hundreds of VIs whose only difference is the value of their "NEXT_CASE" constants. This causes all kind of headaches when I have to insert new cases into the state machine, and it is just too much for me to deal with.
I need to be able to use a global variable to keep track of the current case within my VIs. I could change it from a string to a number and add or subtract from it to determine which case the program should go to next. Since I'm usually only skipping from one case to the next (or the previous) I could use the exact same VI in most cases. Can anyone tell me how to create a global variable that contains the value of the case in my case structure that I could use within my VIs to keep track of the current case? Let me know if you have any questions.

Instead of defining the next state inside the subvi, why not do it in the main vi inside each state case? An output from the subvi could be used with a case structure to determine the next state. Sort of like, if the subvi returns 0 then next state is State3, else if the subvi returns 1 then next state is State4.

shravani,
I_vnam will store the varaible names...if you have varaible in the query...
please use this code for ur help...
DATA: ww_der_date LIKE sy-datum,
        wzdate LIKE sy-datum,
        wzact_gi_dte TYPE /bi0/oiact_gi_dte.
wzact_gi_dte = sy-datum.
IF i_step = 2.
    READ TABLE i_t_var_range INTO wa_i_t_var_range WITH KEY vnam =
    'ZNODAYS'.
    ww_der_date = sy-datum - wa_i_t_var_range-low.
        CLEAR wa_i_t_var_range.
    IF i_vnam = 'ZVAGIDCUSTEXIT'.
      CLEAR l_s_range.
      l_s_range-low    = ww_der_date .
      l_s_range-high   = wzact_gi_dte.
      l_s_range-sign   = 'I'.
      l_s_range-opt    = 'BT'.
      APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
      CLEAR l_s_range.
    ENDIF.
ENDIF.
in this case user will enter no.of days in ZNODAYS and that being is used in calculation and used in the next varaible....

Functinal global variable for producer - consumer architecture

Hi all,
I am using a Producer - consumer architecture for my data acquistion as in the belwo diagram.. at some time i am stuck insde the while loop continously acquiring data .. is there any way i use one stop button as a functional gloabl variable and stop inside (consumer while loop) as well as producer architecture....
Why i need this ?? so many design rules say that global variables are not a good idea...
Thanks in advance...

FGVs will work fine for your application. You can also wire your error cluster to your stop button. Your producer loop should throw an error 1 when the stop button is pressed, which will in turn stop your consumer loop. But you would need a slightly different design for this. Your consumer loop is designed to not advance until the stop button is pressed. Instead of using and enum, you can use your producer loop to control the trigger to take a measurement. No need for the while loop in the consumer loop this way. You could set up your consumer loop to take a number of measurements, and then quit or take measurements for a certain amount of time. Either way, you can stop your while loop when it times out.
If you choose to stay with this design, a simple state machine archetecure might be better based on what I see.

Where to store "global variable" for a web application

There are some "global" variables in my portal web application. e.g. email server
name, admin email address etc. Will web.xml context-param a good place to store these
kind of information?
If so, how do I retrieve it back from a java class? It is easy in a jsp file: appalication.getAttribute(),
but how about a pipeline component or input processor which are all java file.
Please help!
Thank you very much
Ellen

I still believe that the information like connectivity parameters to remote
servers in the distributed environments would be best stored in the JNDI
tree. I agree, that it is not a "general storage area", but I am not talking
about storing application run-time data either.
In the clustered environments it would provide additional benefits of
centralizing this kind information across the cluster.

Mike

JNDI is not a general-purpose storage area, although you could bind data
in a JNDI tree. A better (and simpler) way is to store them as context
parameters. You could read the initial values for these variables from a
servlet init parameters.

I would advise to put you global variable in JNDI tree.
You can use jndi.properties file to store name-value pairs, which will
get
loaded into jndi tree at the server startup. Just put this file in your
application class path.
The other method would be to code a startup class to store the global
variable in the jndi tree.

Global variables for circular buffer

Hallo!
I have another question:
I need to have a variable circular buffer size. So I would like to define the circular buffer size by a global varable.
Is that possible? I tried to use the global variable like {VAR_01} to insert in the desired field for circular buffer size, but dasylab only puts a zero in the field.
Thank you and have a nice day.
Hilby
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Unfortunately it is not possible to have a variable-sized buffer. Right-click into the corresponding textfield: the context menu does not show an entry to choose the global variable from a list.

"global" variables for data slices

Hello experts,
Can someone tell me how to create a global variable which can be set for all user of a planning application?
I want to use this variable to be used by one or two users, so that they can lock the planning data by setting the variable. The variable will be used in a data slice and by changing the value of the variable, they are also able to change the range of the data slice. I thought that I found the solution, but in the end I remembered that variables are user specific and therefore has to be set for each user.
I hope that one of you has a solution (not using STS) for this problem.
Kind regards,
Harald van der Meij

Hallo Harald
I see your point and i hope this can help you.
Create a Variable of type exit which get the values for data freezing.
For example: Calmonth.
then in the Function Module, derive Calmonth making the Select from a custom table. give the rights to the two user to maintain the table for lock and unlock the planning.
Based on entries on the tables, then you can have the value for Calmonth. based on it you freeze or unfreeze the data.
of course you can use any Characteristic.
for example:
you want to freezee from 01.2005 to 10.1005. pass these values to the variable making a select from the custome table (Zfreezing) where you maintain 01.2005 to 10.2005.
if you need then to reopen the planning, then cahnge the values in the tables and consequentely to the variables.
the user can maintain entries in the tables.
When you create the table assign an authorization group and then create a role with it and assing these the two users.

Mike

How to use a global variable for reading a query resultset in JDBC lookup?

Hi Friends,
Using JDBC lookup, I am trying to read from a table Emp1 using a user defined function. In PI 7.0, this function returns values of a single column only even if you fire a " Select * " query. I am planning to use a global variable(array) that stores individual column values of the records returned by a "select *" query. Need pointers on as to how a global variable can be declared and used to acheive the above scenario. Kindly explain with an example. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Amit.

Hi Amit,
Sounds like a good idea but then you would need an external db and update the table in a thread safe way !.
Regarding your question as to how to work with global variable please refer https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/1352. [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]

GLOBAL VARIABLES FOR NON-ORACLE DATABASE

What is the alternative of global variables in Form 5.0 when using non-oracle databases. I know one way is passing parameters, is there any other way? I have few variables which need to be global in my application.
Thank you
null

There is no other way.. you have to use either Global variables or parameter lists to pass values from one form to another form.. With in the form you can always use null canvas item to store and pass values in different program units or triggers..
have a nice day

Global variable for function in JSP?

Creating a global variable for a counter.

All,
we have the following scenario - we are getting a flat file into XI. The file is converted into an xml message (<source> message) in content conversion with the records/message setting as 1000. So, the input file is split into messages with 1000 records/each. (except for the last one).
Now - we map these messages into another message (<sourceIdx> message) to add a counter node to the record structure (rest of the structure is the exact same). The question is we need to maintain the counter across the messages.
Meaning - if there are 100 <source> messages that are mapped to 100 <sourceIdx> messages. The first record in the first message will have the counter as 1 and the last one as 1000. we want the first record in the second message to start at 1001 and not 1 again.
How can we do this? Also - is there a way - where you can add this counter during the content conversion itself. That will save us this mapping.
Thanks,

It might be possible to use a java pointer and point it at a reserved memory location in the XI box, then just modify and call this pointer in a UDF. Another possibility is to write a file with your number directly from the UDF to a place on the XI box and just call and modify this file with the UDF. I don't know if the second would actually work, but those are the non-XI involved way of doing it.
Another option would be to explore using a BPM that would have your variable in it.

Possible to have "global" variable for book files?

I'm working in FM9, I am wondering if there is any way to have a variable that spans all the .fm files within a book file?
thanks
gary in vermont

Gary,
With FM9 you have the option to exclude selected files from standard book operations, like printing or saving as XML. Using this, I recommend the following to handle global features like variable values, condition settings and maybe other stuff:
* Add a new document "GlobalStuff.fm" to your book, at the very end.
* Use this document to easily set variables etc., delete all other information you don’t want to be global (maybe even all paragraph and character catalogs).
* Right-click this document in the book and select "Exclude".
Whenever you need to update some global data, you would do it in this file before importing the changed properties into all other files of the book.
