How does SAP pick up an update type

Hello,
For a Fixed Deposit, there are several update types used by the system while posting flows through TBB1.
GL Account determination is done for an Account Symbol with reference to a valuation area, Account Assignment Reference and Currency. An Account Symbol is assigned with Posting Specifications, Posting Specifications assigned to Update Types.
I need some help in understanding how Updates Types are related to Account Assignment Reference. While creating a Fixed Deposit Transaction through FTR_CREATE, the Account Assignment Reference appears in the Position Indicator. This account assignment reference is mapped in "Assignment of G/L Accounts to Account symbols"
I am trying to understand how do the Post Flows transaction TBB1 pick up the Update Type for relevant flows. Is there a link between Update Type to Account Assignment Reference.
Request clarity on the matter.
Thanks,
Murtuza.

Hi,
There is no link between update type and account assignment reference. I will explain in brief so that you can understand it better. Let us take the case of fixed deposit. You are having 2 kinds of fixed deposit - 1 in local currency and another in foreign currency. Assume both are managed using different product types say 51A and 51B. Now while making an investment, both are going to post similar entries - Dr investment account (asset) Cr Bank account. Hence we assign same update types for both. And thus the posting specification will also be same and the account symbols will also be same.
But the actual G/L account for both is going to be different because in general we manage investments in local currencies separately with that of foreign currencies in our ledger. This is where we have 2 different account assignment references and when we assign the G/L accounts to account symbol, we make it pick different G/L accounts for same account symbol using different account assignment references.
Hope this clears your doubt. But please note this is just 1 way of doing it. We can manage the same scenario using 1 account assignment reference itself and make it to post to different G/L accounts using the different currency option.

Ravi

When creating Outbound Delivery, how does SAP propose Delivery Type?

Hi,
in VL01N, when i create an outbound delivery i can create it with reference to an SO or without reference to an SO.
But how does SAP know the delivery type to use?
I don't know where to really look.
in SPRO i went to:
Logistics Execution ---> Shipping --> Deliveries
but all i saw was delivery type definition.
then i went down the path:
LE --> Shipping --> Copy Control --> Specify Copy Control for Deliveries
then i found a table linking Sales Order Types and Delivery Types.
However, we use SO doc. type Z*** for example but I see that there are multiple entries for it linking to various delivery types including LF and another custom Z*** delivery type.
My question is, how is the system choosing which delivery type to use?
Is it maintained in customer master or at config level?
Thanks.

Hi Gavin,
If you check VOV8 for example standard order (OR), the delivery type is LF. Here you can define only delivery type person SO. Hence you will not find SO to LF relation as 1:N but will surely find N:1.
Item category just defines the billing relevance of the item. Hence if billing is delivery related then delivery will be created for the item.
Now once order is created when tried to deliver, it will know that LF is the delivery type from VOV8 and from item it will know he should deliver it or not.
Hope this is clear now. Reward if helpful.
Kind regards

How does SAP trigger a deletion request to OpenText (IXOS)

Currently we are trying to implement OpenText as the Archive Server for SAP NetWeaver 7.0.
We did able to archive documents (mostly ARCHIVELNK) into OpenText but have problems on deleting documents in the Archive Server when the retention date expired. Referring to OpenTextu2019s documentations, the Archive Server will delete the documents when it received a delete request from the leading application.
We are a bit confused on how does SAP send a delete request to the Archive Server. Are there any TCode or program required to achieve this approach?
Anyone can help?
Thanks a lot.

Dear PP Guru's,
I am new to SAP PP,
We have a query that how does the MDKP table gets updates,
Some time If we create new material by coping the material which is showing in table MDKP,
But new material is not showing in table MDKP,
Based on table MDKP we are fetching some data, due to above problem we are not able to fetch the data for some materials,
Please suggest what could be the reason,
Any help will be highly appreciated,
Thanks in advance,
Sachin.

Thanks Thaila,
I have checked the same by doing MRP through MD02 & the entry is getting update in MDKP,
But for some of our materials MRP (MD02) is done earlier, but these materials are not showing in MDKP,
Please suggest, when the entries in MDKP are removed, are there any conditions for removing the entries from MDKP.
please pour some light on the issue,
Thanks once again,

How the system picking up the Billing type in STO

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me how the system picking up the Billing type in intercompany STO
Regards,
Muthupandiyan

Hi...
With respect to my responce earlier given again as below: Actually DL order type is assigned to all Delivery types as no delivery W/O order ref can take place... so NLCC and also LF has Dl as pseudo order type where in IV is maintained and thats how IV can be done .... and rest is to maintain appropriate copy controls
My earlier answer:
Actually in STO .. u create delivery via VL10B and then create billing...
so del type for intercompany STO is NLCC - in controls of NLCC (Tcode : OVLP), u can see "order reference" tab strip and it is written : (PO reqd and pseudo order - DL)
Now goto details of DL (TCode: VOV8) and check the billing type for intercompany - IV is given .. this how it can allow us to create an intercompany billing.
I hope i am clear

How does SAP populates COEP-GKONT field?

I dont know if this is the right firum/section that I entered, but I have a problem.
How does SAP populates the COEP-GKONT.
This is an offset account that (someone) SAP decides for a particular line item in a document, what the offset account is.
You can see the field using the KSB1 cost center line item report. For example in SI4 you can pull CC C100388888, period 01 and year 2007 and just execute.
Then you can pull this field into the display layout.
If you double-click on the line you get taken to an FI document.
Somehow SAP decides what the offset account should be. It looks like if the item you drilldown on is a debit, then SAP looks for a credit line item and populates the offset account value.
What I dont understand is how SAP chooses this if there are multiple credits. I dont know if it just takes the first one or what.

look fm GET_GKONT

How does XI pick up idoc-file sitting in SAP?

Hi All,
Our scenario is SAP (Idoc) --> XI --> Bank(FTPS). We are creating idoc-file in SAP system and want transfer this file using XI to bank FTP server.
This what we done in SAP system:
1) Created FILE port pointing to physical directory in SAP system
2) Created Partnet Type B (bank) partner profile
Created i/b and o/d interface in XI refering Idoc. Now configuring sender file adapter....Can I pick up file in SAP system using NFS?? How does it work?
What is the best way to do this scenario by using XI?
Thx
Navin

Navin,
Create a File port in WE21. Also give the directory and file name in the physical directory. When ever you have created the partner profile you have to give the Recevier Port. Give this as your File port which is created above.
Then in the corresponding directory you will have a Flat Idoc. Then pick this file with XI and send to the Bank as FTP. You dont need anything in IR. Only you need is ID. Check this for some help on how to use XI for FTP purpose:

How ETT is picking based on movement type

Hi all
Please tell how Excise Trasction Type (ETT) is picked based on movement type?
Also for Retrun delivery to vendor (mvmt type: 122) ETT picking is OTHR, if i want to make it to pick OTHR Sub trasaction type 10 how should i want to do it?
Regards
K.R.Srinivasan

Hi,
First of all ETTs are not picked up as per movement types. These are defined in SAP Standard program to be picked for different transactions.
For e.g. GRPO for Goods Receipt against PO, DLFC for Outgoing Excise Invoice, OTHR for J1IS, etc....
And it will not pick up the Subtransaction type 10 automatically during J1IS (or any transaction), you have to specify this manually during J1IS.
For this you have to do necessary Account Determination for ETTs, Excise group and Subtransaction type 10
Check in SPRO > Logistics - General > Tax on Goods Movements > India > Account Determination > Specify Excise Accounts per Excise Transaction
And in SPRO > Logistics - General > Tax on Goods Movements > India > Account Determination > Specify G/L Accounts per Excise Transaction

How does it work for synchronous update via distributed scheme?

How does the synchronous update work between the primary JVM and backup JVM via the distributed cache threads?
Once a primary distributed worker thread updates the cache, the update needs to be synchronized to the backup.
Does the primary distributed worker thread continue to start sending the update to the backup? Or it's the primary distributed service thread to start sending the update to the backup?
On the backup side, is it the backup distributed service thread updating the backup cache? Or the backup distributed service thread delegate to a backup distributed worker thread to update the backup cache?
There are some concerns about if it's the distributed service thread participating the synchronization which might cause bottleneck given it is single thread.
Thanks in advance.

When you do a SELECT ... FOR UPDATE, Oracle locks each row that is returned by the SELECT. The mechanics of locking in Oracle is that the lock bit is actually stored in the row, rather than being centralized in the v$lock table. This allows Oracle to be very scalable and prevents you from worrying about things like lock escalation, but it makes it hard for individual DBA's and developer's to know what rows are locked.

How does genius pick songs for mixes?

Generally, Genius works really well with popular stuff but then you pick a World song or a Jazz song and hello! All **** breaks loose.
For example - I pick Allen Toussaint's "Long, Long Journey" and the next song in the line-up is Missy Elliott "Work It." The only music similar to Amaral is apparently Latin or any World (Ana Gabriel, Juanes, Angelique Kidjo, Cesaria Evora, Sergio Mendes, Seu Jorge, etc). The best 'mix' I ever got though was with Dusty Springfield - Metallica, White Zombie, Feeder, Elastica and one Dionne Warwick song. Wow.
How does Genius work? Does it really look at other user's music selection and decide, "well, those artists are black so they can go together. They speak a different language so they can go together?" Anyone know how to improve the system?

I'm also curious about the Genius Mixes too. It seems to create Mixes only based on my sync'd songs; not my entire library. I just want to make sure this is how Genius is supposed to work or if there are configuration settings for it.

How does the LabVIEW adapter get VI type information?

Hi, all,
As I've mentioned in another thread,we're trying to programmatically generate TestStand scripts. Since we're using the LabVIEW adapter, we will need to get the type ingotmation of controls and indicators from some VIs that the scripts will use. (These are all kept in one library.)
I'd rather collect that type information from the VIs themselves than manually collect it or hardcode it.Then, if we add or modify the VIs, the new types will be generated.
The LabVIEW adapter must have the ability to do this.
Does anyone here know how it does?
Thanks much,
- Steve.

SPM,
As you may have already noticed, in the LabVIEWModule class there is a Parameters property that contains the items connected to the VI's connector pane. This parameters container is read-only, meaning that while you can get each individual parameter and modify it, you cannot add new parameters.
The parameters property will be created for you when you call Module.LoadPrototype. This will read the VI's connector pane information from disk, and create the correct parameters property for you. You can find an example of creating a LabVIEW step programmatically and setting its connector pane in this document: Programmatically Create TestStand Sequence File with a Step that Calls a LabVIEW Code Module.
Please note that this example has not been updated since TestStand 3.0, and as such uses an obsolete method LabVIEWModule.LoadPrototype. Please use Module.LoadPrototype instead.

How does "Unflatten From String" take a type and return a value of that type?

http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361E-01/glang/unflatten_from_string/
How exactly does the "type" argument for "Unflatten From String" work? I need to create a VI that takes a type, passes it as an argument to several calls of the "Unflatten From String" function, and returns an array containing elements of the type originally passed. The "Unflatten From String" function seems to do some magic though, because the type of the "value" that it outputs changes depending on the type it is passed as input. How do I do the same magic in my VI?
Ultimately, what I need to accomplish is an unflatten-list operation. Given a type T and a byte string of length L (which contains a concatenation of T elements that are flattened to their bytes), create a VI that unflattens all the types in the string and return an array of length (L / sizeof(T)) that contains each type.
Note: performing the unflatten-list operation is trivial, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do it in a VI that takes a type and returns an array of the appropriate type. By the way, my data is being given to me from another source, so please don't bother suggesting that I should be flattening an array using LabVIEW's "Flatten To String" function in the first place. My data is not given in LabVIEW's array format: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361B-01/lvconcepts/flattened_data/
Thanks a ton!
-Wakka

Take a look at this example: You can see that the flattened string contains several bytes. The first four bytes contain the length of array (number of elements). Since the data type is U32, the next 32 bits (4 bytes) contains the value of the first element, and so on. Could you possibly use this scheme to do what you want to do? Other data types present different outputs. You would have to experiment with them.
