How to generate an SE63 object list in batch periodically ?

Dear experts,
we translate program and DDIC-texts of our add-ons continiously to english and
french, in order to keep up translations with the ongoing development we create
the necessary SE63-object list once a week. Since this process is creating
several background-jobs dynamically it is not possible to mark this inital job as
to be repeated periodically. I do understand that but I don't know why there
seems to be absolutely no way to get this done automatically once a week.
Here is what I have already tried in vain in order to achieve this:
- a report performing a CALL TRANSACTION on transaction SE63/SLW3
- an eCATT-script including a TCD-Script on transaction SLW3
(the script works fine if it is started directly, but the only FM that I have found
to start a script with in batch ( 'ECATT_EXECUTE' ) does not do it, but comes
back with a returncode zero, as if it did.
- and I even tried to start the above mentioned eCATT-script by a report doing
a CALL TRANSACTION on transaction SECATT providing the necessary
field settings for the initial and following popup start screen.
Nothing seems to work. The SAP notes on this topic are as useful as the
SAP documentation on the subject "object list" (forget about it).
Who has some experience with this issue respectively ideas for my problem?
How can I generate an object list for translation once a week automatically in
background?
Thanks in advance
Andreas

Hi Lorant,
attached you'll find a download of the ABAP which is to be used as a job step
and an XML-Download of the eCATT-testscript, that processes the generation of a new object list in SE63.
As both developing objects were in our companys namespace ("/HOAG/") which you cannot use, I made a copy in the z-namespace first, from which I have removed a couple of specialties that are certainly of no value for you at all, before I downloaded them for you.
You need to give the script a name in your namespace or in the Z-namespace and then you have to adapt the scripts name in the BDCDATA generation procedure in the ABAP program appropriately.
It may be possible that the eCATT-script doesn't run properly on your system. This is due to the fact, that the sequences of dynpros and fields contained in the dynpros differ a little in all of our 4 SAP development systems that we decided to be translation relevant, This is also the reason why I recorded individual eCATT-scripts for each one of them. It may be possible that you need to record your "own" system compliant script.
An example: the popup screen with the print parameters can be personalized and may therefore look differently for every user in every system.
This is also a good reason why the background job should be scheduled and performed under the name of the same user who recorded the eCATT script before!
And just one last remark: The returncode of the job only gives you an information about wether or not the eCATT script has been executed properly but you do not know if the chain of jobs usually created by the SE63 objectlist creation functionality have been executed completely. The "system" that we set up for the automated objectlist creation is completed by a third ABAP program which is also scheduled daily as a background job. It is started about an hour after the the object list creation should be through and it verifies if the standard SAP jobs (the names of which are beginning with something like "OBJL") ran completely that day and that they are in the status "finished". If this is not the case, our "objectlist verification ABAP" sends a couple of SAP express mails to a certain selection of key users who are supposed to take a look at the system). This all works pretty well in combination!
If you (or the person that you are going to give this task to) know enough of the german language to read it, you won't have any problem with adapting this to your needs because you'll find everything neatly commented in the source code.

How to generate global LogFile object

Hi,
I'm new to JAVA, I used to work in C.
In C I could initialize a global file pointer which was known through the whole package, so I could write to a file using the same pointer.
Now in JAVA I have to create an object of the filewriter, but how can I make this object known though the whole package without using parameters every time??
THX

This class will create a file containing all System.out and System.err outputs. You may create more than one instance of it without problem, but the best could be to add a getInstance Method like explained above...

How to generate n random dates between 2 time periods

Hi,
I'm trying to write a method that generates n random dates between 2
time periods. For example, lets say I want to generate n random dates
between Jan 1 2003 and Jan 15 2003. I'm not sure how to go about
doing the random date generation. Can someone provide some direction
on how to do this?
The method signature should look like this.
public String[] generateRandomDates(String date1,String date2,int n){
// date1 and date2 come in the format of mmddyyyyhh24miss.
// n is the number of random dates to generate.
return dateArray;
Thanks.
Peter

first take a look at the API concerning a source of randomness (Random might be a good guess), then take a look at stuff concerning dates (Date might be cool, maybe you will find some links from there).

How to send an updated list using batch job

Hi All,
The program displays data on the screen, if the data looks ok, then there is an option to update.
When I run update, the program submits a batch job and the basic list gets updated, but my batch job is still sending the data on the screen. how can i send the updated list using batch job.
Ex: output of the program
                1         2
       there is an update button on the screen, when i press update button, my program submits in batch job, the above list becomes
                1        2
                3        4
but when i check the spool, it shows the o/p as         1           2 ..it is not sending the updated list.
Please suggest me how to send the updated data

PM: how to track the operations in prev.maint order against object list

Dear PM Guru's.
i have one issue in my preventive maintenance scenario. i clubed the same type of machines in one maintenance order under object list tab. and i mention the list operations in maintenance order. suppose in one preventive maintenance order 10 operations are maintained and 5objects are mentioned in that order. Now i like to mention all these 10 operations activities against to 5 objects. how i can assign sequentially? i required like 10operations one by one row wise and 5objects side by side column wise. i would like to update the each operation activity against each machine column? how i have to do this one?
Please suggest me and help me.
regards
Jalendhar Merugu

Using Object functionality, we can maintain many equipments in the order.
But the constraint is that one operation can be assigned to only one equipment. In your case, you have 5 objects. If all 10 operations will be performed on 5 objects, then you have to maintain 50 operations & you should assign the objects.
In other words, if one operation will be performed on 5 objects, then you should define that one operation 5 times & you have to assign to technical objects. You can't share one operation to many equipments.

How to add elements into Object[][] type of list, in runtime?

I have Object list, ie.
    final Object[][] data = {
        {"January",   new Integer(150) },
        {"February", new Integer(500) },
        {"March",     new Integer(54) },
        {"April",     new Integer(-50) }
    };How can I dynamicly add new elements in it, at the runtime?
Thank you in advance!

Do I have to remove 'final' for that, and then add
elements?
No. you can't change an array's size.
You can do this
Object[][] arr = new Object[numRows][numCols];But once you've created it, its size can't change.*
I don't know what you're doing, though, and what actual data you're putting in, but Object[][] holding rows of [String, Integer] is almost certainly a poor data structure. Think about creating a class the represents one "row" here and then create a 1D array of that class.
* Okay, you can kinda sorta effectively "change" the size of second and subsequent dimensions, since a multidimensional array is an array of arrays. I wouldn't recommend it though: int[][] arr = new int[3][2]; // a 3 x 2 rectangular array of int--it's an array of array of int, with 3 "rows", each of which is an array of int with 2 elements.
arr[0] = new int[10]; // now it's a jagged array whose first row has 10 elments instead of 2Here we haven't changed an array's size, just replaced one of its elements, which is also an array, with a new, larger array.

Any Pointers on how to get object list values and component values in iw32

Hi,
I have a requirement where whenever a user enters a creates(iw31) or changes(iw32) an order then we have to validate the materials entered by the user before saving the order.We have en interface structure for the transaction 'CAUFVD'.Which gives us the values of functional location and equipment entered under the Reference object.But we need to validate all the object list functional locations and also Order components enetered by the user.Can any one tell me how to get the values of all these fields entered by the user?
And also I need to query Equipment Bill of Material.What does this equipment BOM refers to .Is it the equipments under Object list or something else.
Please Help.
Thanks

Hi Anu
There is a user exit that gets trigerred when you try to save a work order . The exit is 'EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009' . This exit has the structure CAUFVD_IMP which will give you all the order header values entered by the user.
User exit 'EXIT_SAPLCOBT_001' will give all the values entered by the user including order components. Also check the package CO amd see if there is any other function group suiting your requirement.
hope this helps you.
cheers

How to generate a list of pick dates for all scheduled deliveries?

Hi!
How to generate a list of pick dates for all scheduled deliveries?
What all the tables involved?
Thanks
Imran.

Thanks for the suggestion concerning the file path. And certainly it would have been nice to have done this before beginning. However this is a project that has been around for quite a while, and the files have been moved into different bins. And now the project sequence is being revised.
So the problem is, worded slightly differently, how can I search all of the bins for the files that are used just by this sequence, ignoring the files which are used by other sequences? Or, how can I get a list of the file paths of the files that are used in the sequence?

How to generate PDF copy of invoice list

Hi All,
I need a favor from you in helping to generate a PDF copy to invoice list .
I observed that spool is not generated for this print output of invoice list but output successfully triggered.
we have z report (zretrieval ) to generated the PDF but it's not allowed to generate PDF.
I tried alternative method by saving the print preview but I can able to save only that particular page.
our business looking for all invoice list pages in single pdf so please guide me to proceed further.
Regards
Srinivasa Reddy

I presume your issue is output triggered but PDF file is not generating if the invoice list goes for multiple pages. If this is correct, then you need to talk to your ABAPer as they only, have to check the smartform being used for invoice list.
