How to check if BIA has effect on a BPS function

Dear Experts,
As I know BIA can also improve DB read time (data selection) when performing a BPS function. Currently we are using a BIA test installation to see if it will help us. We have some BPS function with long data selection times.
I know created BIA indexes on all involved real time cubes. By just executing the concerned BPS functions I can see no effect. I now want to check if the BPS functions do access the BIA at all. For queries this is quite easy to check with RSRT.
So my question is:
Is there any tool available to check wether BIA is used by a BPS function or not? Some kind of RSRT for BPS.
Thanks & Regards,
Ulrich Meier

Hi Jens,
Thanks. I tried this. Strange result is that I get no data in that trace when running a BPS function. I do get data when running that trace during execution of a query which runs on the same InfoCubes as the planning function.
In the meantime I found table RSDDSTATBIAUSE which gets updated each time a InfoProvider is accessed if it has a BIA Index. Here my InfoProviders get a +1 in field BIA_USED when accessing them with the BPS function.
Furthermore I came across OSS-Note 990000 and installed the latest version of report ZBPPOBPS70 (I already knew that from BW 3.5). Here I found that field 'BW:Used Aggregate' is not populated, although within the coding of ZBPPOBPS70 there is indication that it should either show the used aggregate or BIA Index. The data is read from table RSDDSTATDM field AGGREGATE. There I found entries in AGGREGATE for 'normal' query calls but none for BPS calls.
With alll that in mind I'm more and more confused...
Regards,
Ulrich

How to check whether campaign has been uploaded to online server

Hi,
How to check whether campaign has been uploaded to online server by using SQL analyzer
Thanks,
Rasheed

Hi Rasheed,
To quickly check if the campaign has been uploaded from MSA to the server, you can check the TR_STATUS column on the SMOPCCAMPN table for your campaign, if the value is P000 or P*** then it has been uploaded to the server and is waiting for confirmation, if the status is O, it has been uploaded and created in the server.

How to check whether entity has been persisted in the current transaction

Hello,
I am porting functionality which relay heavily on lifecycle of the entity.
For example methods like these:
* returns true if the instance has been modified, deleted or newly made
* persistent in the current transaction
public boolean isModified(final EntityObject entity)
public boolean isDeleted(final EntityObject entity)
For some of these callsI have found how to port them to toplink und just want to validate that this is the right way:
protected static UnitOfWork getUnitOfWork(EntityManager entityManager) {
return ((JpaEntityManager) (entityManager.getDelegate())).getUnitOfWork();
public static boolean isModified(EntityManager entityManager, Object entity) {
UnitOfWorkChangeSet set = getUnitOfWork(entityManager).getCurrentChanges();
ObjectChangeSet oset = set.getObjectChangeSetForClone(entity);
return !oset.getChanges().isEmpty() || oset.isNew();
public static boolean isDeleted(EntityManager entityManager, Object entity) {
UnitOfWorkChangeSet set = getUnitOfWork(entityManager).getCurrentChanges();
return set.getDeletedObjects().keySet().contains(entity);
but I did not find how to do following with the eclipselink:
* returns true, if the given entity object has been persistet during the
* current transaction
* @param entity
* @return true, if the given entity object has been persistet during the
* current transaction
public boolean isPersistent(final EntityObject entity)
Questions:
- how can I check whether the entity is persistent in the sense already stored in the DB ?
- how can I check whether the entity has been persisted in the current transaction ?
Thanks in advance.
Andre Teshler

Hi Andre,
In Eclipse link there are Entity listeners which will define the life cycle events like preInsert(),postInsert() etc.On successful insertion of an object its postInsert() life cycle method gets called.If you have to validate whether object inserted successfully then best place is to override the postInsert() and check for the existence of the record.All the event life cycle methods take a DescriptorEvent as parameter which will give handle to API as given below.In the same method you can check if this insert operation succeeded in the same transaction.
package model;
import java.util.Vector;
import org.eclipse.persistence.descriptors.DescriptorEvent;
import org.eclipse.persistence.descriptors.DescriptorEventAdapter;
import org.eclipse.persistence.descriptors.DescriptorEventListener;
import org.eclipse.persistence.internal.sessions.ObjectChangeSet;
public class SampleEntityLIstener extends DescriptorEventAdapter {
public SampleEntityLIstener() {
super();
public void postInsert(DescriptorEvent event) {
event.getRecord().containsKey("pass the object");
event.getChangeSet().getUOWChangeSet();
public void preInsert(DescriptorEvent event) {
Once you implement the DescriptorEventListener,need to register with the Entity so that life cycle methods gets called and respective business logic gets executed.
Hope this helps,

How to check whether music has finished playing and go to another frame

I have a bunch of music samples which are set up to play on
the click of a button, and at the same time go to another frame in
the movie clip so it says 'playing', with a stop button that takes
you back to frame 1. If you don't click stop, though, when the song
ends, it stays on this second frame, even though there is nothing
playing anymore, which is a bit confusing for the viewer.
So I need to tell flash to check whether the song is finished
playing, and then if it is, go back to frame 1. I have no idea how
to do this; have basically done it all using tutorial and samples
and my limited actionscript knowledge, but I can't find this
particular code, and don't really have any idea how to write it
from scratch.
Many thanks!
Here's my first frame actionscript:
stop();
this.createEmptyMovieClip ("mcSoundHolder",
this.getNextHighestDepth());
var mySound:Sound = new Sound (mcSoundHolder);
btn_Song1.onRelease = function():Void {
stopAllSounds();
mySound.loadSound("Soaring1-Burlesque.mp3", true);
gotoAndPlay("Song1");
btn_Song2.onRelease = function():Void {
stopAllSounds();
mySound.loadSound("Soaring2-PopCyclePotpourri.mp3", true);
gotoAndPlay("Song2");
btn_Song3.onRelease = function():Void {
stopAllSounds();
mySound.loadSound("Soaring3-PopCycle-SongofLight.mp3",
true);
gotoAndPlay("Song3");
and so on...

I am not sure how Tomcat handles this, but you need to use two-way (mutual authentication) request but not enforce SSL between Tomcat and the client browser. This will make the browser prompt the user for the cert they want to send. Then you'll need to tackle the other part of your problem, getting the correct content displayed depending on whether the user sent a cert or not. I'm even less help there than I was on the first part of your question.
So, yeah - good luck with that

How to check for the variable passed to a function inside a component

I'm trying to pass a variable to a function inside of a
component in a conditional statement.
How to check the existance of this variable inside the
function so that I can use the right <CFarguments>:
in aForm.cfm I have:
<cfinvoke component="#application.cfcroot#.business.Order"
method="selOrderItems"
returnvariable="q_OrderItems"
OrderItemAbbreviation="Min"></cfinvoke>
<cfset MCompIDs = ValueList(q_OrderItems.OrderItemID)>
<cfif listFind(MCompIDs,attributes.CompID)>
<cfset isM = true>
<cfelse>
<cfset isM = false>
</cfif>
<cfinvoke component="#application.cfcroot#.business.Order"
method="selOrderItems"
returnvariable="q_OrderItems"
OrderItemAbbreviation="SMEnroll"></cfinvoke>
<cfset SM_CompIDs =
ValueList(q_OrderItems.OrderItemID)>
<cfif listFind(SM_CompIDs,attributes.CompID)>
<cfset isSM = true>
<cfelse>
<cfset isSM = false>
</cfif>
<CFIF isSM>
<cfset temppath = frmcreator.buildFrm(isSMFlag=isSM)>
<CFELSE>
<cfset temppath = frmcreator.buildFrm(isMFlag=isM)>
</CFIF>
On aFormComp.cfc where the function is,
I checked the existance of isSMFlag this way and I got error
saying that :
Context validation error for tag CFARGUMENT.; The tag must be
nested inside a CFFUNCTION tag.
How can I properly check the existance of isSMFlag inside the
function so I can use the right cfarguments?
<CFFUNCTION NAME="buildFrm" access="public"
returntype="String" output="No">
<cfif StructKeyExists(arguments, "isSMFlag")>
<CFARGUMENT NAME="isSMFlag" REQUIRED="YES"
TYPE="NUMERIC">
<cfelse>
<CFARGUMENT NAME="isMFlag" REQUIRED="YES"
TYPE="NUMERIC">
</cfif>
........ etc
</CFFUNCTION>

<CFFUNCTION NAME="buildFrm" access="public"
returntype="String"
output="No">
<cfif StructKeyExists(arguments, "isSMFlag")>
<CFARGUMENT NAME="isSMFlag" REQUIRED="YES"
TYPE="NUMERIC">
<cfelse>
<CFARGUMENT NAME="isMFlag" REQUIRED="YES"
TYPE="NUMERIC">
</cfif>
........ etc
</CFFUNCTION>
NOT this way, that is for sure.
The <cfargument ...> tag is for defining the arguments
a function
accepts either optional or not, but they are not required.
Give this a
try to see the differences.
test.cfc
<cfcomponent>
<cffunction name="a">
<cfdump var="#arguments#">
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="b">
<cfargument name="foo">
<cfargument name="bar">
<cfdump var="#arguments#>
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
test.cfm
<cfset something = createObject("component","test")>
<cfoutput>
#something.a("blue","green")#
#something.b("blue","green")#
</cfoutput>
Not tested or debugged so watch out for typos.

How to check where a apraticulr key figure has currency translations?

Hi,
i need to check the currency translations for a key figure!
where i can find those translations? i mean i am not sure whether this has been wrdefined in update rules or transfer rules!
how to check this?
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi Sankar,
i did not find any currency translations in URs nor in TRs nor in report KF properties!
where else can be possible?
i guess it is in extract structure? are there any still methods available to define currency translations.
while running the report it is asking for currency variable in the selection screen!
but really no idea what does this variable will have the effect on translation!
any inputs?
Thanks,
Ravi

How to check if the user has only the display authority of a message

hi,
How to check if the user has only the display authority of a message but does not have the change authority for a certain message?
Best regards,

hi blake
though i am an application consultant and for authorisation u need to have help of BASIS person if u r not the one but still i can guide u regarding the same,
Basically Authorization Management
Use
You can use the following authorization objects to control the authorizations for maintaining business partner data:
        Authorization objects for the Business Partner:
             B_BUPA_GRP
             B_BUPA_ATT
             B_BUPA_FDG
             B_BUPA_RLT
Authorization objects for relationships:
             B_BUPR_BZT
             B_BUPR_FDG
In addition, you can assign an authorization group to a business partner in the dialog. The authorization group controls which users may maintain data for this business partner.
You can also define authorizations for fields and field groups using the Business Data Toolset (BDT). Depending on the settings you have made, the system carries out the relevant authorization checks.
In the dialog in the SAP GUI, you can display an overview of the authorizations assigned to you by pressing the button Settings.
For more information on authorization management, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) of the Business Partner, as well as in the Developers Handbook for the BDT under Authorizations.
IntegrationAuthorization management for the Business Partner forms part of the SAP authorization concept.
Prerequisites
You have made the necessary settings in Customizing of the Business Partner under Basic Settings--> -Address Management.
Moving over
AS ABAP Authorization Concept
The ABAP authorization concept protects transactions, programs, and services in SAP systems from unauthorized access. On the basis of the authorization concept, the administrator assigns authorizations to the users that determine which actions a user can execute in the SAP system, after he or she has logged on to the system and authenticated himself or herself.
To access business objects or execute SAP transactions, a user requires corresponding authorizations, as business objects or transactions are protected by authorization objects. The authorizations represent instances of generic authorization objects and are defined depending on the activity and responsibilities of the employee. The authorizations are combined in an authorization profile that is associated with a role. The user administrators then assign the corresponding roles using the user master record, so that the user can use the appropriate transactions for his or her tasks.
Authorization Checks
To ensure that a user has the appropriate authorizations when he or she performs an action, users are subject to authorization checks.
The following actions are subject to authorization checks that are performed before the start of a program or table maintenance and which the SAP applications cannot avoid:
        Starting SAP transactions (authorization object S_TCODE)
        Starting reports (authorization object S_PROGRAM)
        Calling RFC function modules (authorization object S_RFC)
        Table maintenance with generic tools (S_TABU_DIS)
Checking at Program Level with AUTHORITY-CHECK
Applications use the ABAP statement AUTHORITY-CHECK, which is inserted in the source code of the program, to check whether users have the appropriate authorization and whether these authorizations are suitably defined; that is, whether the user administrator has assigned the values required for the fields by the programmer. In this way, you can also protect transactions that are called indirectly by other programs.
AUTHORITY-CHECK searches profiles specified in the user master record to see whether the user has authorization for the authorization object specified in the AUTHORITY-CHECK. If one of the authorizations found matches the required values, the check is successful.
Starting SAP Transactions
When a user starts a transaction, the system performs the following checks:
        The system checks in table TSTC whether the transaction code is valid and whether the system administrator has locked the transaction.
        The system then checks whether the user has authorization to start the transaction.
The SAP system performs the authorization checks every time a user starts a transaction from the menu or by entering a command. Indirectly called transactions are not included in this authorization check. For more complex transactions, which call other transactions, there are additional authorization checks.
             The authorization object S_TCODE (transaction start) contains the field TCD (transaction code). The user must have an authorization with a value for the selected transaction code.
             If an additional authorization is entered using transaction SE93 for the transaction to be started, the user also requires the suitable defined authorization object (TSTA, table TSTCA).
If you create a transaction in transaction SE93, you can assign an additional authorization to this transaction. This is useful, if you want to be able to protect a transaction with a separate authorization. If this is not the case, you should consider using other methods to protect the transaction (such as AUTHORITY-CHECK at program level).
        The system checks whether the transaction code is assigned an authorization object. If so, a check is made that the user has authorization for this authorization object.
The check is not performed in the following cases:
You have deactivated the check of the authorization objects for the transaction (with transaction SU24) using check indicators, that is, you have removed an authorization object entered using transaction SE93. You cannot deactivate the check for objects from the SAP NetWeaver and HR areas.
This can be useful, as a large number of authorization objects are often checked when transactions are executed, since the transaction calls other work areas in the background. In order for these checks to be executed successfully, the user in question must have the appropriate authorizations. This results in some users having more authorization than they strictly need. It also leads to an increased maintenance workload. You can therefore deactivate authorization checks of this type in a targeted manner using transaction SU24.
             You have globally deactivated authorization objects for all transactions with transaction SU24 or transaction SU25.
             So that the entries that you have made with transactions SU24 and SU25 become effective, you must set the profile parameter AUTH/NO_CHECK_IN_SOME_CASES to Y (using transaction RZ10).
All of the above checks must be successful so that the user can start the transaction. Otherwise, the transaction is not called and the system displays an appropriate message.
Starting Report Classes
You can perform additional authorization checks by assigning reports to authorization classes (using report RSCSAUTH). You can, for example, assign all PA* reports to an authorization class for PA (such as PAxxx). If a user wants to start a PA report, he or she requires the appropriate authorization to execute reports in this class.
We do not deliver any predefined report classes. You must decide yourself which reports you want to protect in this way. You can also enter the authorization classes for reports with the maintenance functions for report trees. This method provides a hierarchical approach for assigning authorizations for reports. You can, for example, assign an authorization class to a report node, meaning that all reports at this node automatically belong to this class. This means that you have a more transparent overview of the authorization classes to which the various reports are transported.
You must consider the following:
              After you have assigned reports to authorization classes or have changed assignments, you may have to adjust objects in your authorization concept (such as roles (activity groups), profiles, or user master records).
              There are certain system reports that you cannot assign to any authorization class. These include:
              RSRZLLG0
              STARTMEN (as of SAP R/3 4.0)
              Reports that are called using SUBMIT in a customer exit at logon (such as SUSR0001, ZXUSRU01).
              Authorization assignments for reports are overwritten during an upgrade. After an upgrade, you must therefore restore your customer-specific report authorizations.
Calling RFC Function Modules
When RFC function modules are called by an RFC client program or another system, an authorization check is performed for the authorization object S_RFC in the called system. This check uses the name of the function group to which the function module belongs. You can deactivate this check with parameter auth/rfc_authority_check.
Checking Assignment of Authorization Groups to Tables
You can also assign authorization groups to tables to avoid users accessing tables using general access tools (such as transaction SE16). A user requires not only authorization to execute the tool, but must also have authorization to be permitted to access tables with the relevant group assignments. For this case, we deliver tables with predefined assignments to authorization groups. The assignments are defined in table TDDAT; the checked authorization object is S_TABU_DIS.
You can assign a table to authorization group Z000. (Use transaction SM30 for table TDDAT) A user that wants to access this table must have authorization object S_TABU_DIS in his or her profile with the value Z000 in the field DICBERCLS (authorization group for ABAP Dictionary objects).

The database structure has been modified - how to check if it happend?

Hello,
I have a question. How to check if the database structure has been modified? I know that there is shown a messagebox after creating table and adding some fields, but sometimes this message appear after some seconds. The problem is that I want to create table and UDO for this table, and until database structure is not modified I got an error message. If I wait and DB strucuture modifies then UDO is creating correctly.
My question is - does anyone know how to check if database structure has been modified?
Regards,
Hmg

Hi Szymon,
I guess you are stuck up in a kinda scenario, where in, you will be populating a form with values, before the structure modifies, if this is going to be your problem, I can help you out with a work around.
In the beginning of the process, before the creation of the UDO or tables, set a boolean value to false, and once all UDO's and Tables are created, only then, should you make it true and only after the boolean becomes true, you should proceed with populating the values from the screen.
I really ament sure what your problem is, but one of my guys faced this problem, I then, thought even you might have a similar problem.

How to check if all values from a dataset has come to an internal table

How to check if all values from a dataset has come to an internal table ?

Hi,
After OPEN DATASET statement check if sy-subrc = 0 if its success then proceed with split statement and save the dataset values into a internal table and while debugging the internal table you will find that whether all values get into internal table.
Checking sy-subrc after OPEN DATASET statement is must to fill up the values in the internal table.
For e.g.
OPEN DATASET p_inpfile FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
IF sy-subrc NE 0.
    WRITE :/ 'No such input file' .
    EXIT.
ELSE.
READ DATASET p_inpfile INTO loc_string.
      IF sy-subrc NE 0.
        EXIT.
      ELSE.
        CLEAR loc2.
*Spliting fields in the file-
        REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '#' IN wa_string WITH ' '.
       SPLIT wa_string AT const INTO loc2-pernr
                                       loc2-werks
                                       loc2-persk
                                       loc2-vdsk1.
Hope you get some idea.

Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.
