How to delete master data of materials from sap tables

how to delete master data of materials from sap tables...its needed now.
i know its not recommended but still we need to do this. give me the best possible approach.
regards,
suneetha

Hi,
I would suggest you not to write your own code to delete the entries.
BAPI_MATERIAL_DELETE, this would mark all materials selected for deletion. But still the material would exist in SAP.
Another solution: Delete a material manually and in another session execute the transaction SM04. This would display the tables which get locked when you do the operation, Then you can write your own code to delete the material numbers from all the related tables.

How to delete an old email address from an Apple ID

We have a number of iPads, iPhones, iPods etc. These all share the same Apple ID. In the past I used an email address from BT which I no longer have access to and have forgotten the password to. We now have an active Apple ID which I have used for this iPad. I have tried to reset this iPad but it will not allow me to or to delete and update the iCloud backup as it asks for the old BT internet Apple ID password, even though the iPad is logged in with the new active one. Please advise how I can delete the old account from the iPad.

If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreated the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

How to delete an old SIA node from the CMS database?

Hello Everyone,
I had installed XI 3.1 SP3 on RHEL server with CMS database in Oracle. I added an additional SIA node in the same CMS database using "Add Server Intelligence" option in "serverconfig.sh" script. Since I didnot delete the old one before adding a new one, now even though the services run with the new node but the old SIA node with its own central management server is also present. I know this because when I do "./ccm.sh -start all", it starts the old SIA too. So I have to shut down the old sia every time. This has become a sort of nuisance and I wanted to delete the old SIA node. However when I use "serverconfig.sh" script to delete it, it says cannot find the server with that SIA node.
Looks like the old SIA nod is still registered in the CMS database but the server config.sh cannot find it. How can I get rid or the old SIA gracefully.
Please help.
Regards.

Thanks Danis one more time.
Yes, I know the name of the SIA. Good to know that creating an additional SIA with the same name and deleting it would do the trick. However, since the old SIA with the same name is still hanging around there, will it allow me to create an new one with the same name?
Also, I have seen almost always adding a new SIA renders the existing ones non-usable and non-deletable (without using the work around). My reservation at this point is that, won't just adding an additional SIA though with an old name make the existing SIA running all the services unusable?
I apologize for all the questions. Since it is the production environment I will be working on, I have very little luxury of first trying it out and asking the questions. We just want all the points covered before proceeding.
I would very much appreciate your inputs.
Thank you.

*How to Delete the Old Forecast Versions from Cube & DSO? *

Hi BI Gurus,
I am currently designing my BI Model to deliver the APO DP requirements.
It would be great if some one can give me an Idea how to achieve the below:
We have a requirement that needs to me maintained the Data as Versions.
1. We are extracting the Data form APO DP planning area and maintaining the Versions based on the Forecast Version in BI. The Forecast Version in BI will hold the Versions in Calmonth format (MMYYYY).
2. Load frequency-- Monthly load for (36 months worth of forecast data)
3. Need to maintain 12 Versions and once we reach the 13th Version (13th load) then we need to delete the 1st Version
4. Data Flow details:
Export DataSource(PSA)> W.O-DSO->CUBE
Your help will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Group BI

Hi Shanthi,
Thanks very much for your reply. But I am not able to understand your reply.
My Requirement is: We load monthly once to Standard DSO and Cube form WO DSO.
|---> Standard DSO
WO-DSO-|
|---> Standard CUBE
We generate the Forecast Version based on the System Date (we take Month to Forecast Version Object).
Example: We started loading form March-2008. We loaded 12 Versions by Feb-2009. When we do the next load which is 13th load, we want to delete the data we loaded on March-2008 from both DSO and CUBE.
Hope this is more clear now.
Once again thanks very much for your help.

Hi all
I solved it. No documentation about it, but the solution is to use transaction.
Just use this DeleteAll function that all works fine.
void     DeleteAll()
     strTest     *psttTest;
     DbTxn     *pTxn;
     try
          pTxn          =     NULL;
          g_pdbTest     =     NULL;
          if(g_penvDbEnv == NULL)
               g_pdbTest     =     new     Db(NULL, 0);
          else

How do I delete an old email account from my system

I was asked to update a password to our company email account and I updated. Then I had to update the password on my iphone. Now my iphone won't send any emails out because it is asking for an update to an email account that was never associated with this iphone (the email account was from a former employer). It must have been restored or synced to my iphone or tied to iTunes through syncing. I deleted the old employer phone from itunes when I left the job and purchased a new iphone.
But now my new iphone is not sending emails because it says that the old email account does not recognize the new password. And there is no old email account to delete. I've looked in my itunes acccount to try to delete there as well and can find nothing to delete from the old account.

Very interesting, thank you for the update.
I would next reset the network settings on the phone, in case there is some info there that is stuck and causing the issue:
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
recently used Bluetooth accessories
VPN and APN settings
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
I would also check these locations to see if the account is signed in anywhere else as an Apple ID in your Settings:
iCloud
iTunes & App Stores
Messages
FaceTime
Game Center
If not I would as a last resort, backup your iPhone with this article:
iOS: How to back up and restore your content
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
And restore it from your backup with this article and test the issue:
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
If the issue persists when restored, then restore it as a new device and test the issue to help isolate the data in the backup.

How do I delete an old apple id from my messages account?

When I upgraded from iphone 4 to 5s, my new iphone automatically set the messages account to that of an old apple id. The old apple id is from college, the email account no longer exists, and I have forgotten my password that was associated with the apple id. Because the email address no longer exists and i cannot remember the answers to my security questions, i cannot reset my password and login into messages on my iphone. My goal is to set my new apple id in messages on my iphone so that I can sync my iphone messages with the messages on my macbook pro. Does anyone know how to delete the old apple id?

With iOS 7 there’s no workaround.

If your device is signed into an old ID of yours that is an earlier version of the ID you want to sign in with, do the following:
If you are using iMessage and FaceTime, make sure you are signed into these services with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library). When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must use the previous owner's password to get permission to use the device. If you cannot get the password your father put on the iPad you will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

Cam,
The iCloud is still in beta, and to the best of my knowledge is not yet available in the UK. So if you go to the home page of the iTunes Store and click the link for Purchased, I assume you will see options for Apps and Books but not Music?
Until the iCloud comes, the official Apple policy is that you can't redownload purchases, but some report that they are able to get an exception by asking nicely to iTunes Customer Service via their web page. No guarantees, but it is worth a try.
