Help with start routine

Hi,
I am new to ABAP.Can anyone help me wih this code
The following code is in start routine
LOOP AT DATA_PACKAGE.
SELECT /BIC/ZPACTGY /BIC/ZMPIINIR FROM /BIC/PZCONDTYP
 INTO IT_ZCONDTYP
 WHERE /BIC/ZCONDTYP = DATA_PACKAGE-/BIC/ZCONDTYP.
IF ( IT_ZCONDTYP-/BIC/ZPACTGY Eq 'VVR12' OR
 IT_ZCONDTYP-/BIC/ZPACTGY Eq 'VVR13' or
 IT_ZCONDTYP-/BIC/ZPACTGY Eq 'VVR14' or
 IT_ZCONDTYP-/BIC/ZPACTGY Eq 'VVV10' or
 IT_ZCONDTYP-/BIC/ZMPIINIR Eq 'Y' or
 ( IT_ZCONDTYP-/Bic/zcondtyp ge 'Y100'
 and IT_ZCONDTYP-/Bic/zcondtyp le 'Y199' ) ).
 APPEND DATA_PACKAGE.
 ENDIF.
endselect.
ENDLOOP.
what I am trying to accomplish is I want my data which is in the internal table to satisfy the following conditions. and place it in internal table .(or whatever is correct)
IT_ZCONDTYP-/BIC/ZPACTGY Eq 'VVR12' OR
 IT_ZCONDTYP-/BIC/ZPACTGY Eq 'VVR13' or
 IT_ZCONDTYP-/BIC/ZPACTGY Eq 'VVR14' or
 IT_ZCONDTYP-/BIC/ZPACTGY Eq 'VVV10' or
 IT_ZCONDTYP-/BIC/ZMPIINIR Eq 'Y' or
 ( IT_ZCONDTYP-/Bic/zcondtyp ge 'Y100'
 and IT_ZCONDTYP-/Bic/zcondtyp le 'Y199' ) ).
and read this from another transfer routine
CLEAR RESULT.
READ TABLE IT_ZCONDTYP WITH KEY
/BIC/ZCONDTYP = COMM_STRUCTURE-/BIC/ZCONDTYP
 BINARY SEARCH.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
RESULT = IT_ZCONDTYP-/BIC/ZCONDTYP.
ENDIF.
This is mostly related to BW.So if someone can give their opinion on how to achieve this I will be very grateful.
thanks,
Kal

hi Kal,
you have to specify what are you going to add to the datapackage internal table (before the append data_package statement).
hope this helps.
LOOP AT DATA_PACKAGE.
SELECT /BIC/ZPACTGY /BIC/ZMPIINIR FROM /BIC/PZCONDTYP

ABAP Help at start routine of Update rule

Good After Noon All,
My requirement is that cube ZAPO_C24M theres an UPDR flowing from 8ZAPO_C24M back to itself so to speak.The request is to change the data in the cube from Fiscal Year Variant Z3 to Z4.
But in start routine i have to take the existing record and reverse all of the key figures, and also change the RECORDMODE of the record to indicate it is a reversal record. This for specific Country KR and for these country the Fiscal variant is Z3. Again in the start routine, create a new record identical to the existing record that has Fiscal Year Variant Z4 instead of Z3.
So the idea is wed load from the cube and send back to the cube one record that reverses out the existing data, and another record that contains the same data but with Fiscal Variant Z4 instead of Z3.
Please Help me.
Points will be awarded for the right answer

Hi Vaishali,
In the start routine copy the DATA_PACKAGE to a local table.
Select the records where the specific country is KR.
Delete all other records.
Then read the records in loop, Keep one record same and just change the fiscal year variant.
And for the same multiply all the key figures by -1.
Transfer the content of the local table back to DATA_PACKAGE.
maintain one to one mapping in the update rule.
I am sure it will update, but you need to be sure that if you change Fiscal year variant then probably your fiscal period value should change. In that case you have to update it accordingly in the start routine.
Regards.

ABAP HELP in Start routine

Hello everybody,
I have written a code to delete some records in start routine, we are using BI 7.0.
here is the code,
TYPES: BEGIN OF tys_SC_3,
TCTUSERNM TYPE /BI0/OITCTUSERNM,
END OF tys_SC_3.
DATA zz_s_SC_3 type sorted table of tys_SC_3 with unique key TCTUSERNM.
DATA zz_s_SC_4 like line of zz_s_SC_3.
select TCTUSERNM from /B12/ARIAO0100 into table zz_s_SC_3
where TCTIOBJNM = '0TCAIPROV' and TCTLOW = '/MRG/RIMAC_01'.
DELETE SOURCE_PACKAGE where TCTUSERNM NOT IN zz_s_SC_3.
When I am running this code,I am getting an error
"E:"ZZ_S_SC_3" does not have the structure of a selection table."
can anybody out there help me out,
Thank you,
Karthik

Hi,
you need to define zz_s_SC_3 as:
data: zz_s_SC_3 type standard table of rsrange.
do the select as:
select TCTUSERNM as low from /B12/ARIAO0100 into table zz_s_SC_3
modify zz_s_sc_3 to set the fields sign and option to 'I' and 'EQ' for all records then it will work.

Help on Start Routine

Hello All,
I cannot determine how to bring only records based on customer master data field =status in the data target ,
and the rest to delete it in the *start routine*. Please help. I am adding my code below. Any help is appreciated.
DATA: L_field1 LIKE /BI0/customer-field1,
        L_customer LIKE structure-customer.
LOOP AT DATA_PACKAGE.
    SELECT SINGLE field1 INTO L_field1
     FROM /BI0/customer
      WHERE customer = DATA_PACKAGE-customer
        AND field1= 'status'.
    IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
        DELETE DATA_PACKAGE.
      ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Thanks,
Su

Dennis,
Thank you so much for the quick response.
I think it is working. I only have one concern!!!!.
I feel like during the testing I found something weird that eventhough there are only 8 records in the psa and four records only have the value ('status') that we need from customer master data-field1, it is still picking the 5th record, not sure why. I see that once it is written in to the data target then the value is showing it as 'status' and in psa it is different.
So I wonder if it is converting that field in the routine based on our constant! Please let me know your input.
p.s data target does not have the field1 available. So just like you corrected my code it has to bring it from customer master data and join customer to with the customer-field1 =' status', then pick else delete other records.
Regards,
Su

Help on Start Routine at Transfer Rule.

Hi guys,
We r extracting data from generic extractor into BW.My target is to fill Attributes of 0Customer(Infoprovider) Infoobject.
We have added two navigational attributes to it CLASS A and CLASS B.
Data coming from R/3 has three fields Customer,Class,n field called as ATWRT.
For each customer there are two records .
For Ex
Customer                         Class                          ATWRT
001                                   A                                 FOOD
001                                   B                                 Supermarket
002                                   A                                 Chain
003                                   B                                  Magnum
In the target customer is key
Now the TASK is that in the target the definition for class A which is present in ATWRT should go to navigational attribute ClassA
n Defination for B should go in NAV Attribute CLASS B . that means there should be single record in the target comprising both value in NAV attribute.
For Ex
Customer                Class A                             Class B
001                         FOOD                                Supermarket
002                         Chain                                  Magnum

S_DSO-QTY = T_CUBE-QTY AND S_DSO-UNIT_PRICE = T_CUBE-UNIT_PRICE
please help me to achieve this....please provide code from the initializations of internal tables not just the looping conditions.
You help will be most appreciated

Hi Viren,
I did applied the code in Start routine but the out put is not as required.
My Data model is as follows:
zmd_dso(source dso)
zdocno.. zprod_fam.. qty.. price
a001...      A    ...         10   ... 100
a002 ...    B     ...          20 ... 200
a003...     C     ...          30 ... 300
zmd_dsc(lookup dso)
zdocno ... zprod_fam
a001 ....      A
a003    ....    C
desired output
zdata_ic(target)
zdoc_no ... zprod_fam .. qty   .. price
aoo1 ...     A    ...          10   ...    100
a003   ...    C   ...            30 ...      300
As per the above table   zmd_dso is the source DSO and Zdata_ic is Target Cube, but in between there is DSO called zmd_dsc which contains zdoc_no and zprod_fam   and after the transfermation u can see the cube filterd by the values in zmd_dsc which is a look up dso. the doc_no " a002" and the Zprod_fam "B" are not present in the lookup dso and that is the reason why the entries are not visible in the cube after extraction.
I tried ur code, but the result is same as source dso i can see all the records which are available in the source dso and it is not cross checking the lookup dso that is Zmd_dsc.
I hope ur understanding what i meant to say. sorry if i am confusing you.

Help with start up probs after force quit

Hi there . I think I'm royally fckd. I was on blogger and my screen froze no cursor move nothing had to force quit. Now every time I try to turn on the MacBook Air all I get is a black screen and that start up noise over over over again . still black screen and no log in page . Is there a way to fix this or is it royally gone to mac heaven.help with thanks .

your force quit wouldn't cause an inability to powerup. Black screen on every powerup?
SSD or logic board fault likely.
Contact Apple for diagnostic/ repair.
Anything in your Air can be fixed yes.

Help with a routine please

Hi experts!
I have a requirement and I need help with an abap routine.
I'm uploading a table from de ECC where each record contains one key figure per fiscal period (wlt01, wlt02,...wlt16). I need to have in a dso a unique key figure (called zwlt for instance) and the 0fiscper infoobject filled with the corresponding period, that is, for each record of the table, I need 16 records in the DSO with zwlt = wltXX and the fiscper = fiscyear&0&XX.
Any help please?
Thanks in advance.

there are multiple ways to handle this.
one way is to use APD to unpivot the data.
or else you can use the following sample code to derive what you want...this code might just hint at the way to proceed.

Help with start up. new iMac 27" with Marericks installed has been giving me trouble with IDs and passwords. More than one account downloaded from older Laptop. Now the computer has the turning wheel in from of gray screen and won't go any further when

I recently started using my desktop iMac 27" and have been having problems since installing Mavericks, not saying that Mavericks is the problem per se. I think I have too many accounts with too many names, with too many Apple IDs and too many passwords, email passwords and Apple ID passwords, and keychain passwords, etc. Can't keep them straight even though I write everything down. The screen has been making me log in and log out with Account name and passwords after everything I've been doing, also confused about Users and Groups and how to sync everything. I finally just "shut down" everything and the screen was black. When I turned the computer on again, the circular gear in the middle just kept turning but nothing happened after that. Then I held the on button in the back until the screen went black again.
What should I do? Is there a way to combine all my accounts into one account with one Apple ID? I should say that I also have trying to use iCloud and it has different IDs and passwords. Also when I try to log in with one account name, I can't enter anything I write,and when I type on the keyboard, nothing appears on the screen, although I can receive emails, I can't send them.
In another account, what I type does appear on the screen, but I think it's an earlier account and doesn't translate aver to the other account. ALTHOUGH i set up iCloud accounts, they don't appear any more.
Very confused. Any Ideas about how I can get the computer to start up again and show a new screen?
Thanks to anyone who has workable suggestions.

If you really believe that your system has been compromised, here's what you do:
Disconnect your Mac from your cable modem;
Back up any documents on your system that are important to you;
Boot your Mac from the system installation disks that came with it (insert the disk, restart your Mac, and hold down the "c" key until you get the "spinning gear" icon);
Choose a language and click the arrow button to continue;
From the Utilities menu, choose Disk Utility;
In Disk Utility, select your computer's hard drive;
Click the "Erase" tab;
Click the "Security Options" button and select to have it overwrite all the data on the hard drive;
Click the "Erase" button and allow it to process;
Once the "erase process has completed (it will take a while), reinstall Mac OS X.
Or, if this is too much for you to accomplish on your own, take your system to an Apple Store and have them help you perform these steps. If your system was indeed compromised, this will remove any such hack. You can then set up a new user account for the computer, reinstall your applications (reinstall only from original disks or downloads from the company making the software) and documents, and reconnect to the Internet.
Note that when you reconnect to the cable modem, you may still get an IP address starting with 198. This is normal with some cable modems and probably not a cause for concern. It will not be an indication that your system is still compromised; that will not be possible if you perform all the above steps.

Can anyone help with start up? Or lack there of?

Something is wrong when starting up my iMac5. I press the power button and it goes no where except to a blank light blue screen with a 1/2x1/2 inch square right in the middle of the screen where it flashes the finder icon and a question mark. The computer is unusable and won't go anywhere. Can anyone help me with this or is this something I have to get repaired?

Hi moo209,
Your iMac cannot find the startup disk. Your startup disk did not mount. Somehow, the formatted info cannot be read. Using your Install DVD, run Disk Utility and repair disk then repair disk permissions. It may be necessary to first mount the disk.
If none of this will work, the disks header info is badly damaged. It will be necessary to format the disk to get it to mount. In this case, this will wipe all the data thats on the disk. You will have to reinstall the OS.
If you had a second bootable HD or another Mac connected with Firewire, you could first run Data Rescue can extract the data to the other drive before formatting.
Regards

Help with starting the EM dbconsole please - emctl error.

Hi there - i've spent half my life trying to sort this and it's in vain. There's only 9 hits in google for the below error message and half of those are in Japanese. Not much help therefore. So any advice to be gratefully received!
I've installed enterprise manager with the option for Oracle to create a new repository. All seems to have installed ok. I've issued the set oracle_sid and the usual "emctl status dbconsole" command and i always get the "unable to locate web application configuration from ." error.
I can't see any oracle dbconsole service in the services window either. Should there be one or does this get created when you run a successful "emctl start dbconsole" command?
I've tinkered with the Oracle homes (as per previous discussions) but to no avail.
Appreciated if someone could point me in the right direction - I'm a newby to Enterprise Manager.
Thanks in advance. Jon

Nope. Still exactly the same.
Error as per previous server before i started hacking it (emctl status dbconsole): "Unable to locate web application configuration from ." I'm completely losing my mind with this install. This same error has happened on 3 different servers now. Always falls over on this agent configuration. Don't Oracle test their installation procedures? Anyway, here's a not so useful snippet of the logs. If anyone knows anything, would be good to let me know - otherwise change of career for me :-(
Cheers...

Help with starting point for "proof of concept" integration

We are a third party application provider and are attempting to figure out how to do a "proof of concept" integration with SAP. We are not looking for "certification". Our product does not appear to fit any of the standard certifications for integration and our experience integrating with other systems indicates that no two integration will be identical.
We are looking to do a simple integration scenario with an SAP system so we have some basic experience doing it, can say 'Yes" when asked if we have done it, and can create a video showing a transaction being done in SAP and our system also updating (and ideally the reverse).
Our starting point with respect to SAP knowledge is "0".
Our basic task list (we think) goes something like
1. Figure out the version and modules of SAP with which we should be integrating
2. Get access to an SAP system (do we rent, is there a developer/evaluation, ...)
3. Put some data in the test system (is there a "sample data" set?)
4. Figure out the SAP transactions that map to the business process in which we are interested (moving goods in and out of a distribution center/ware house - are there some "standard business process guides")
5. Integrate (we are a .NET web based application so we are guessing this means use the ".Net Connector")
Could anyone point out any resources (white papers, links, people, places to find people,...) that might be a good starting point?
Thanks,
John

Athol,
We are looking to recieve notifications out of SAP as tractor trailers at a dock are filled as proof on concept. The actual integration scenarios we do are more complex and do not match well with any of the pre-packaged certification scenarios. The real world integration scenarios actual vary substantially from customer to customer in terms of the integration points between systems.
As we have become more marginally knowledgable about SAP, I think we will end up receiving and sending "IDOC" messages from SAP but have no idea what those IDOC messages are or where to start looking for what a "standard" (if there is one) message SAP would generate in reaction to whatever the "trailer is loaded" transaction is.
To figure out what the transaction is, I assume we need to identify what version of SAP we should be targeting for a simple integration. Are there any could references on what the commonly integration methods are and to which versions they apply?
Something like "hey, if you do an integration with a IDOCs in with SAP Netweaver 2004 then that would good proof you could integrate with 90% of the installed SAP base". Of course, any links explaining what the versions of SAP are and where they are in there lifecycle and what people are actually using would be helpful.
John

Help with Starting My Project [Project AM]

I apologize in advance if this is not in the correct forum.
//The next two paragraphs are a rundown of why I am doing this project and my previous experience with Java//
Here's where my story starts, I've just started out a new year of school and I've been placed in a Computer Science (Higher Level) class, and it so happens that I am to be coding/programming in Java. I've worked with C++ in the past, and I've noticed that Java is quite similar, thankfully.
This Computer Science class is a two-year course, at the end of the two years I will have an external assessment (IB dossier) due. This gives me tons of time to work on this project, if you haven't noticed by now it will be an on-going project.
I know this project is going to take some time that's why I would like to start now.
//End of Rundown//
My project is called "AM" and in the end it will be an "instant messenger" (with your help of course).
The first thing I would like to establish in this project is creating a server program to accept connections and a client to connect to the server (text based). I would like multiclient connections to the one server program.
Now here's the question, what should I look into before starting this project, what Java technologies? What resources should I grab from the library or from the book store? Basically I'm asking where I should begin?
If anyone has any suggestions or even some personal experience with writing a program like this please contact me. I would really appreciate it. Also source code would really help in learning this, but I can probably search that on my own, thanks.

The easiest way to go about this is to use Sockets. You could also look into using RMI
