IDOC ABAP enhancements before processing

Hi Guys!
My scenario is that I'm using XI to send a Sales Order IDOC to ERP. I need to make some ABAP enhancements in ERP so that some data is modified before it creates a Sales Order IDOC upon sending from XI. Would anyone have any idea how I can go about this?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Glenn,
User Exit Function module IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS
In the function module IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS, form call_va01_new_orders is performed wherein BDC data is built up for every screen required to post a sales order. User Exit ZXVEDU04 is performed at various stages during the built up of BDC data
XI tool translates the order into an intermediate document (IDOC) with message type ORDERS and IDOC type ORDERS01. Reaching into SAP, the function module IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS processes the IDOC and calls VA01 transaction with BDC data built out from IDOC data. Successfully processed IDOC posts a sales order, whereas a failed IDOC processing generates workitem for workflow processing.
At a high level, the IDOC processing executes in the following manner:
       1.     Interpret IDOC header segments and captures organizational, customer master and purchase
               order header details. Performs user exits for each segment to process customizations to data
               processing.
       2.     Interprets item level segments and captures item level details like material information. Again,
                it performs user exits for each segment.
       3.     Sums up the order data and determines the posting criterion viz. creating order with reference
                 etc.
      4.     Builds up batch data communication sequence (BDC) with respect to the required screen
                 sequence of posting a sales order.
      5.     While building up the BDC data, system performs user exit to process customizations to BDC
                 data.
     6.     Calls transactions VA01 using the BDC data.
     7.     If the processing fails, an appropriate workitem is generated for workflow processing.
if you give me brief i can help you out more.
Thank you .

File to idocs - sequence of inbound processing

Hi everybody,
we have a file to (2) idocs scenario. In XI we map the received data of vendors into two idocs (adrmas and cremas). After building the idocs we send them in that sequence to the reveiver systems (recommended). The problem is that in the receiver system very often the idoc cremas wants to be processed before adrmas is ready. This leads to the error "vendor xy is blocked by user sapale". Especially for massprocessing I get a lot of these error-messages in bd87. As workaround I processed all the error-idocs by the report rbdmani2. (First step adrmas - second step cremas) But then I face missing data in some cases in table lfa1 - which seems to me that the sequence of 1. adrmas and 2. cremas was not correct processed.
Is there a possibility for inbound processing with the rule process adrmas - wait until ready - process the associated cremas and so on?
I checked the sap-help article for seralisation - but we could not achieve a better result by queing the outgoing messages in the xi.
Thanks very much.
With kind regards
Jörg

You have to get a solution based on the following concepts
1. Do not use BPM it is not efficient
2. Understand what is the difference between an IDOC in received state and processed state. Received state mean IDOC is saved into IDOC table. Processed state mean IDOC processed into the business system.
3. You can ASK BASIS guy to turn on the immediate IDOC processing option in SAP system,so that SAP process the IDOC as soon as it arrive in IDOC table. This is not efficient, in case if your SAP system has to process SAP online client request and SAP document (inbound and outbound) same time.
4. Understand the concept of standard based integration, mean integration system provide the option to business parties to provide the successfull message transfer.
Based on all these points I recomend you to follow the steps below.
1. Extract each record from the input files into two idocs.
2. Send the first IDOC to the receiving system
3. Send the second IDOC to a ESB storage such as DATABASE, JMS Queue, MQ Series Q (if you have available) or even to another File.
4. Develop an RFC module to check the status of the IDOC being send to the receiving system. Status here mean whether the IDOC data processed into the business system. You can do this lookup using a custom RFC lookup using the attribute connecting the first IDOC record with second IDOC.
5. Process the records (second IDOC) from the intermediate storage using the RFC lookup into the business system updates its status as ready to deliver.
6. Using another process such as FILE to IDOC or JMS to IDOC or JDBC to IDOC send each record which are ready to process from intermediate storage to the receiving system.
7. Create a report using FILE or JMS, JDBC adaptor module to keep track of these three stage processing, so that in case an inconsistency happed you will have an auditing trace available.
This is the standard based integration approach.
ABAP guys, BASIS guys they may not get it when then repair a BMW in local auto workshop, cuz I had to fight with them 4 years ago to make it happen in Verizon supply chain project where I had to accomplish the same concept in SAME IDOCS you mentioned here.
BPM, turning on immediate processing of IDOCS etc will end up in buying another 16 CPU hardware and BASIS guys or ABAP guys running BAD record IDOC processing report for 350.00 hr consulting FEES.
SAP is a good company and XI is a good product, as long as it is being used as per right usage.

New to ABAP Enhancements

Hi Experts,
As I am new to ABAP Enhancements can anyone guide with the navigations on how to proceed for creating an enhanced object.I will be helpful if u can provide it with some examples.
Thanks & Regards,
Naresh

Hi,
Overview of Customer Exits
The SAP application programmer plans possible application enhancements
in an application and defines the necessary components. These
components are combined in SAP enhancements.The programmers document their enhancements as best they can so that customers can implement the enhancements without having to analyze the program source code or the screen source code.
First, create an enhancement project and then choose the SAP
enhancements you want to use.
Next, edit your individual components using the project management
function and document the entire enhancement project.
Finally, activate the enhancement project. This activates all the component
parts of the project.
The transaction, CMOD, starts the project management function. You
must give your enhancement project a name. SAP recommends that you
think up a naming convention for all your projects. You caninclude the
transaction or module pool of the project in its name. All the enhancement
project names must be unique.
Next, go to the attributes of the project and enter a short text describing
the enhancenent project. The system inserts all the other attributes of the
project, such as created by, created on, and or status.
Use the project management function to assign SAP enhancements to
customer enhancement projects. Enter the names of the SAP enhancements
you want to use on the appropriate screen.
The search function gives you a catalog-like overview of existing SAP
enhancements. From there, you can select the enhancements that are of
interest to you.
Use the product management function to edit the components of your
enhancement project.
Depending on whether the component you are editing is a function
module, a menu entry, or a subscreen, you branch to either the Function
Builder, a dialog box for entering menu entries, or to the Screen Painter.
Activation of an enhancement project affects all its components. After it
has been activated successfully, the project has the status, active.
During activation, all programs, screens, and menus that contain the
components that belong to the project are regenerated (programs at the
time they are executed). After activation, you can see the effect of the
enhancements in your application functions.
The Deactivate function allows you to reset the status of an active
enhancement project to inactive.
When the enhancement project was created, you should have assigned
it to a change request. Each of the component pieces, such as include
programs, subscreens, and menu exits, should be assigned to the same
change request. Using the same change request allows you to transport
the entire enhancement at the same time.
Function Module Exits
Function module exits allow customers to implement additional logic
in application functions. SAP application programmers define where
function module exits are inserted and what type of data they transfer.
SAP programmers also create the corresponding function modules of an
exit complete with short text, interface, and documentation, as well as
describing the intended purpose of each function module in the SAP
documentation.
You write the source code for the function modules yourself. If need be,
you can also create your own screens, text elements, and includes for the
function group.
The system processes your ABAP code when the enhancement project of
which your function module is a component is activated. Function module
exits have no effect prior to enhancement project activation.
The exit function module is called in the PAI logic of a screen at a position
determined by the SAP application developer. Within the function module,
the user can add the functions in the customer namespace using an include.
To call function modules, use the ABAP statement: CALL
CUSTOMER-FUNCTION nnn, where nnn is a three-digit number. The
programmer must also create the function module the developer wants to
call and its related function group.
These function modules always belong to function groups, the names of
which begin with X (X function group).
The following naming convention applies to function modules:
 Prefix:EXIT
 Name: Name of the program that calls the function module
 Suffix: Three-digit number
The three parts of the name are separated by an underscore.
The CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION statement is only executed after
the enhancement project has been activated. Multiple calls of the same
function module are all activated at the same time.
The most frequently asked question concerning enhancements is how can
you see if an application program offers a function module exit? There are
a number of ways to find the answer to this question.
To see quickly if an application program offers a function module exit, you
can follow the path on the left side of the figure: The menu path System→
Status always displays the name of the current application program. In
this example, a suitable character string would be CALL CUSTOMER.
Click the Find icon and search globally in the program. If your search doesnot provide any results, you can define a larger search area. Determine
the environment for the corresponding program and look for the specific
character string in the program environment.
The right side of the figure shows you howto find the name of the required
enhancement using search tools. You can restrict the search in the SAP R/3
Repository Information System using different criteria. These are:
 Development class (also try generic entries)
 Technical name of the enhancement
Use the project management, transaction: CMOD function, to edit the
function modules for function module exits.
Use the button for editing components to go directly to the function
module editor (display mode).
Do not change the function module itself. It is especially important that
you do not alter the interface in any way. The function module, contains
an INCLUDE statement for an include program that you have to create
in the customer namespace.
Select the include name beginning with ZX. This automatically takes you
to the editor of the include program, where you can enter your code.
To understand how an X function group works, you need to understand
how a normal function group works:
 A function group consists of includes. The system assigns unique the
names to the includes for different objects. Some of the include names
are simply proposals and some cannot be changed.
 Global data is stored in the TOP include. This include is generated
automatically when a function group is created.
 Function modules are stored in includes with sequential numbering
and they, in turn, are all stored in an include ending with UXX.
 Although can freely choose the names of the includes for all other
objects such as subroutines, modules, and events, it is a good idea
to accept the proposed names.
Exit function groups created by SAP application programmers for
enhancement exits contain include programs that begin with either LX or
ZX. You can only edit includes beginning with a Z because they are stored
in the customer namespace.
No further function modules may be added to the function group.
The include program, ZxaaaUnn contains the source code for the function
modules of a function module exit.
SAP application programmers can declare global data in include program,
LXaaaTAP.
You can declare your global data in the include, ZXaaaTOP.
Include program, LXaaaTOP also contains the FUNCTION-POOL statement,
which may not be changed. For this reason, you must always include the
message class in parentheses when outputting messages. For example,
MESSAGE E500 (EU) .
The INCLUDE statement for program ZXaaaUnn is in a FUNCTION -
ENDFUNCTION block. Because of this, neither events, nor subroutines(
FORM ), nor modules ( MODULE ) are allowed here. They can be created in
separate includes, which is explained later. Data declarations made here
with DATA are valid locally in this function module.
The SAP application programmer can also make a proposal for the source
text. In this case, an INCLUDE LXaaFnn is created, where nn is the
internal number for the function module in the include, LXaaaUXX ).
Documentation is also provided within the SAP enhancement. You can
copy the source code fromthis include into your own customer include
program, ZxaaaUnn, using the project management transaction.
You can create your own text elements for the function group.
SAP application programmers can supply you with default subroutines
in the include, LXaaaF01.
There could be further includes containing specific subobjects:
 LX...F01 contains the subroutines delivered by SAP
 LX...E01 contains the events belonging to the X function group
 LX...O01 contains the PBO modules for the screens to be delivered
 LX...I01 contains the corresponding PAI modules
Subroutines, modules, and interactive events (AT) are created as include
programs and included enhancements using the include program,
ZXaaaZZZ.
Additional includes must adhere to the following naming convention:
 ZXaaaFnn for subroutines
 ZXaaaOnnforPBOmodules
 ZXaaaInn for PAI modules
 ZXaaaEnn for events
You can use CALL SCREEN to call your own screens. Create the related
include programs for the Process Before Output (PBO) and Process After
Input (PAI) modules in the include program, ZXaaaZZZ .
Use forward navigation (select an object and then double-click it) to create
your own screens and modules.
Screens created in this way are automatically given the name of the
function modules main program, SAPLXaaa . The PBO modules for these
screens can be found in the include, ZXaaaO01 , and the PAImodules
in the include, ZXaaaI01 .
You can enhance SAP applications by adding your own processing logic
at predefined points.
Such enhancements can include your own screenswith their corresponding
processing logic and graphical user interface as well as text elements
created by customers.

Executing Abap Queries in Abap Code and processing the result

Hi,
I want to execute ABAP Queries (designed by sq01) in an abap report and processing the result in an internal table.
How could it be work?
Thanks a lot for your responses,
with kind Regards
Reinhold Strobl

Hello,
GO to SQ01 and select your query. Go to Menu QUERY-->More Functions->Display Report Name.
You can then take that report name and go to SE38. Copy the code before END-OF_SELECTION and then modify as per your own requirements.

Deleting a segment in an IDOC - ABAP - IDOC Scenario

Hi All,
I stuck at one issue..when we send delivery shipment notice through EDI..it takes output type "YSH1'. whenever in line item category is 'YPLC' the idoc sending failure..
So the requirement is whenever output type is 'YSH1' and item category is 'YPLC'..the IDOC segment should be delete at runtime...
So...Let me know Is there any Function Module to delete the IDOC particular line item segment E1EDL24..in the EXIT .."EXIT_SAPLV56K_002".
If there is not any function module please let me know how to delete the segment at runtime...
Please Help me ASAP..

GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED error while running abap prog in process chain

Hi.
I am getting a runtime error GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED while running an ABAP program in process chain.
But when i execute pro in SE38 , it's not giving any error.
Please any one can suggets what will be error.

Hi,
i also used to get error for a program executed through process chain but when it is executed in se38 it used to work... that is because my program try to access a application server folder and reads the file from there... the authorisation to this is not proper through process chain ..... once authorisation to the folder was given properly .. i am able to run...
Such things can happen in your case also... Try to analyse the dump in st22.... what happened ...

Error "Error in ABAP statement when processing an internal table. table."

Hello,
I am facing the error when tried for GR from SRM portal for my shopping cart and for others created shopping cart. The error is
"Error in ABAP statement when processing an internal table. table."
I have the central receipient role. Couold any body assist me?
Thanks,
Pijush

Hi Harish,
Execute the query in RSRT and check whether you have any short dump is in ST22. This would give a clear idea at what might have gone wrong.
Another thing is to check whether the code for the variable is fine in the user exit.
Hope this helps.

IDocs sent to XI, processed only some, others in status Scheduled for o/b..

Hi guys!
We have a scenario, where Idoc is sent from r/3 into XI, here enters integration process, where the idoc is mapped to soap req, sent sync to web service, ws response is mapped to other idoc type and integration process sends data to r/3.
The problem is, when more idocs are sent into xi from r/3 in short time. Some idocs are processed correctly, but some remain in status - Scheduled for outbound processing. When the same idoc (same data etc) is sent later, separately, the data (process) is processed succesfully.
Any ideas, what could be wrong?
Thanx a lot! Olian

Hi Olian,
This problem occurs when XI has not received the response from the webservice and it gets timed out. You can monitor this in RWB - Message Monitoring.
Have a look at this weblog
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2006/06/08/xi-timeouts-timeouts-timeouts
Hope this will help you in resolving the issue.

Sender jms adapter-archiving before processing the message

Hi,
Do we have any option in Sender JMS adapter to archive the message before processing the message?
I have searched in sender JMS adapter (XI7.0) settings, but couldn't find any option.
My assumption is whether any option provided in configuration setting of adapter engine or any other alternatives.
Thanks,
Srini.

Hi Srini.
Here is the code. But you may prefer the EAR module, just for deploy. I need your email to send it to you.
If you want to create it yourself follow the steps in this guide and paste the code:

When you configure the module in the JMS sender communication channel you have to spedify 2 parameter for the log file location:
"file.path" (XI server file system path) and "file.name"

FTP sender adapter wait sometime before processing a message

Hi,
I want my FTP sender adapter to wait sometime before processing a message. This is needed in my case since the receiver of the message cannot consume message in, say two seconds, so I would like to configure a "time to wait before processing message" in PI since PI processes all of the files in folder without waiting another poll interval time if more than one exist.
Is this possible in PI 7.0 sp16?
Regards,

HI Tarik
BPM is the solution for this problem. If you are not willing to use BPM other solutions are Adapter module and Scripts
You can write adapter module and use the threads mechanism. Thread.sleep can help you achieve this but you need to set this properly.
Another method is Unix script. Let your actual directory be Dir1 and poll PI to Dir2. Use the script to write files from Dir1 to Dir2 one by one and with time gap. This will work for you.
If you have PI system on Windows i prefer to go with Adapter module.
Thanks

IDOCS Error - Not getting processed automatically

Hi All,
We are loading hierarchy for a Product from R/3 system using the standard datasource.
When we execute the info package, IDOCs are not getting processed automatically.
We are facing the below error message.
Error when updating Idocs in Business Information Warehouse
Diagnosis
Errors have been reported in Business Information Warehouse during IDoc update:
No status record was passed to ALE by the applicat
System Response
Some IDocs have error status.
Procedure
Check the IDocs in Business Information Warehouse . You do this using the extraction monitor.
Error handling:
How you resolve the errors depends on the error message you get.
But when we goto BD87 and process the IDOCs manually, these are getting posted and the hierarchy is loading.
Can someone please guide me on what is the issue with the IDOCs and how to make them to post automatically.
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Sachin

Hi,
This will happen due to Non-updated IDOCu2019s in the Source system i.e., occurs whenever LUWu2019s are not transferred from the source system to the destination system. If you look at RSMO of the status tab, the error message would appear like u201CtRFC Error in Source Systemu201D or u201CtRFC Error in Data Warehouseu201D or simply u201CtRFC Erroru201D depending on the system from where data is being extracted. Sometimes IDOC are also stuck on R/3 side as there were no processors available to process them. The solution for this Execute LUWu2019s manually. Go to the menu Environment -> Transact. RFC -> In the Source System from RSMO which will asks to login into the source system. The u201CStatus Textu201D for stucked LUWu2019s may be Transaction Recorded or Transaction waiting. Once you encounter this type of status Execute LUWu2019s manually using u201CF6u201D or Editexecute LUWu2019s(F6).Just keep on refreshing until you get the status u201CTransaction is executingu201D in the Production system. We can even see the stuck IDOCu2019c in Transaction BD87 also.Now the data will be pulled into the BW.
Hope it helps a lot.

Idoc Message type and Process Cosde for CJ01 transaction

Hi,
What is the Idoc message type and inbound Process code for CJ01 transdaction?
Is there Any standard procedure to find out Idoc Mesage type and process codes for particular application?
Thanks.

Hi,
All the sending and receiving programs(transaction) start with BD. e.g. if you want to send the material you can use the BD10 transaction and IDOC is available for the same.
Go to se93 and search for BD* and look for the description.
