Internal and external distribution models utilizing the SD Module and tcode

gurus,
Did anyone have an experience with internal and external distribution models utilizing the SD Module and transactions.
Please explain the model with tcodes.
Thanks in advance

Distribution Model for the Message

want to create a filter for my Distribution Model for the Message Type HRMD_A .
The filtering should be based on Company Code .
I'm getting only infotypes but now should I filter based on Field BUKRS ?

1. Go to Tcode BD59.
2. Create a Custom ALE Object Type
3. Specify the corresponding Segment name where BUKRS exists and the Field Name as BUKRS.

Error On Distribution Model in the Backend

Hello,
I'm customizing our SRM and Backend to work together.
I'm in the part Distribution Model. It works on SRM but on my backend, when I want to "Generate Partner" I have a message "No messages have been defined for the selection conditions in the model" and nothing is done.
I don't know why...
I don't know if it is link but me RFC connexion that I created on SRM to link to the backend name for example ABC_020 and in the backend is one RFC is ABCMAND020. doesn't it matter if they don't have the same name?
Thanks in advance.
If someone has a cookbook or documentation about SRM can you please send me at "[email protected]"
Thanks twice.

Hi Eileen,
We have observed that without local RFCs i.e.
SRM to SRM
R/3 to R/3
the business objects (matl/services) don't get replicated as you can not configure the Middleware sites in SMOEAC.
Don't know whether it will help for Distribution model but worth trying

I have an Apple Macbook and will be backing up the entire system to an external hard drive utilizing the Time Machine application. when I am doing this, will the data on the external drive that I am using be erased?

I have an Apple Macbook and will be backing up the entire system in order to upgrade to a newer OS. I will be using an external hard drive to do this and there is already data on it. To complete the backup, i will be using the Time Machine application. Does this application wipe out all of the existing data on the external hard drive, or will it create a new "folder" for the backup?
thank you

No, but as steve359 states you should use a dedicated hard drive for backups. It you need a temporary backup then you can use the drive provided it has sufficient space for all your data on the hard drive.
When Time Machine finds that the drive has data on it already it may decide to erase the drive before continuing, which is another reason to use a dedicated drive.

I cannot get any mic to work on this, internal or external. What are the settings?

What is the model of the WWAN Module in a HP TX1000Z Tablet PC?

I recently have acquired a HP TX1000Z Tablet PC, which features a WWAN module. I was wondering if someone could tell me the exact device brand and model (as in, Sierra Wireless MCXXXX (XXXX are numbers)), because I looked in the repair guide for the TX1000Z tablet PC and it just said "HP WWAN Module". The module's part number is 442023-001.
If no one can tell me, I will have to find out myself, I guess.

I can find no information on that part, Hp does not even have a driver listed for it.
you might have to research the numbers that are on the chip on the board.

Pass the internal table with different structures to the class module

Hi ,
I have created a class method to fill up the data in XML format. the method can be called from various programs with internal table with different structures. I want to pass it as dynamic How can I do that.
I tried to declare that as type any.
but not working.
regards,
Madhuri

Hi,
You could work with data reference.
Use GET REFERENCE OF itab INTO data_ref for passing the internal table to your method, and dereference it within the method with ASSIGN statement...
DATA: lr_data TYPE REF TO data.
GET REFERENCE OF itab INTO lr_data.
CALL METHOD meth EXPORTING pr_data = lr_data.
METHOD meth.
FIELD-SYMBOLS <fs> TYPE ANY TABLE
ASSIGN pr_data->* TO <fs>.
ENDMETHOD.

"Customer" BAPI in Distribution Model for Training and Events

We have an HR box with Training and Events - When booking an attendee on a course, you can select the "contact person" tab. Our SD box is separate from HR, so all the contact persons are maintained there. Is it possible to use the "Customer" BAPI in a distribution model so that when we search in the HR box for a contact person, it actually fetches the data from the SD box?
I remember reading up on this a while back but I can't find the documentation I had back then...
I know that in BD64 I can create a distribution model, and if I remember correctly, i should be able to "Add BAPI" and use object type "Customer" - Then add all the methods that I need... (like Find, List, Search etc) In essence, once this model has been distributed to the other system, if I go to transaction XD03 in the HR box, I should be able to display customer master details that only exist on the SD box - Is that correct?
Please help as I am not able to get this to work...

Ok I figured it out...
I have created a distribution model with the HR system as the source, and the SD system as the target.
In change mode, click the "Add BAPI" button and choose object BusPartnerEmployee, method CheckExistence
Do the same for the following:
BusPartnerEmployee.Display
BusPartnerEmployee.GetList
Customer.CheckExistence
Customer.Display
Customer.ExistenceCheck
Customer.Find
Customer.GetContactList
Customer.GetDetail2
Customer.GetInternalNumber
Customer.GetList
Customer.GetSalesAreas
Customer.Search1
Ok so I know that this might be a little over-kill, especially all the Customer methods that I added, but it works

Removing Objects O and S from info type 1000 and 1028 in Distribution model

Hi,
My requirement is to remove the objects O and S in distribution model from the filter group of Info type 1000 and 1028.
After removing the objects I perform the below steps:
1. I send an employee (P) through PFAL.
2. Once the employee data is reached to receiver system, then check the employee from PA20.
3. From the Organization Assignment info type (0001), check whether the Org unit and Position text appears on the screen.
Currently after removing the objects O and S, the texts do not flow. But only the org unit and postion id flows to info type 0001, not the text.
Is there any other method or some other configuration to send the texts to the receiver system, apart from maintaining it in distribution model? We want the texts to be displayed in PA20 and PA30 screen for info type 0001 ( along with org unit and position id).
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
the text for O and S are stored in infotype 1000...so PA30 reads them from that table. So if you want to have the texts in the target system you need to send at least infotype 1000. Why don't you want to send it?.

Ana

Find distribution model in source system and maintain filter in it

I have an inbound idoc which is in status 51(error). The procedure shown by SAP is following:-
It has been determined that the particular employee 11001189 has been received for the first time.
Maintain the filter of the appropriate distribution model. To do this, call transaction BD64 in the source system.
Add new filter group to the data filter. Assign values to it.
I cannot find the distribution model. Please somebody help me in finding the relevant distribution model in the source system. One more thing, when I went to BD64 I found that some of the model views were in grey shade while others were in bold, please tell me why is it so.
Please give me some hint.

You never maintain Filters in receivin system those has to me in sender system. Also you
need to distribute the Model from sender to receiver once you model is finalized thru menu
option in sender system. Find the Models with HRMD_A as message type
One more thing, when I went to BD64 I found that some of the model views were in grey shade
while others were in bold, please tell me why is it so
simple, If its greyed out then this model is maintained in some other system and is
just distrinuted over to this system, you shuld not maintain the greyed out entries as Maintaince
system is different. The non grey entires are those for which its same system in which the model
is created

R/3 to XI (Idoc to File): Do we need to maintain distribution model in R/3?

Hi All,
I have a very basic question regarding Distribution model.
My scenario is IDOC-->File ( SAP R/3 --> XI). So all I am trying to do is send the IDOC frrom R/3 to XI. ( Within XI I am going to do an FTP to the 3rd party file server)
I have created a distribution model, but was wondering if I really need to create one as message is going from R/3 to XI and not from R/3 to another R/3.
Please help let me know If I need to distribute this model to XI or to SAP production sytem or I do not need to duistribute at all for this scenario.
Thanks
Shirin

Hi,
if you create partner profiles and port via t.code.
i hope, it's not required to maintain Distribution model.

Query in Distribution Model creation

Hello All,
we are trying to build a distribution logic based on the below criteria
first data object has the following node structure
DO1
node1
    childnode1
       -field1
       -field2
    childnode2
       -field1
       -field2
the second data object has the following structure
DO2
node1
     -field1
     -field2
     -field3
from the above data object i need to send data for the second data object DO2 based on the childnode1 and childnode2 value in DO1, can any one give a solution like how to create dependencies and create a DM.
Thanks and Regards,
Venkatesh R

I understand this: You have a rule on DO1 (which works fine and distributes DO1 instances correctly) and dependencieso n DO2 (which are not distributing DO2 instances for some reason).
Now your model is something like this:
Each of the 4 child nodes in DO1 has a partial association to the DO2s root (the missed key field is Language).
For each of these associations, there is one dependency which will map to a list of instances of DO2 for all languages, corresponding to each DO1 instance. Now you want to prune this list and only send the instance of DO2 for the device's language.
NOW: If you created the dependency after activating the rule on DO1 then the dependency and its rules will not work right away. You need to deactivate the rule on DO1 and activate it again.
What you need to do:
1. Deactivate the Rule on DO1.
2. Activate the rule on DO1 again.
Hopefully, that should fix it.
By the way, the correct way to distribute language specific data for anything is not via another data object, but via a child node.
Lets say, you have some data (which is language independent) and text corresponding to that data (which is language specific). The way you should ideally do it is:
1. Create a node as a child to the node containing the language independent data. Put the language specific data in this node (all languages)
2. Create an Extract association from the parent node to the child node, within the data object.
3. Use this Extract association to create an extract rule in the Distribution Model. The DOE will then pick the correct language data for each device and send only the child instances that correspond to the language of the device.

Best way to change iProc default for Internal vs External Source

We are using iProc for items that are available both from external suppliers and internal warehouses. Unfortunately, our sourcing rules are set up such that the source defaults to external even if the item is available internally. We cannot set up our sourcing rules to generate a default source of Internal but the business "requires" that the default source is Internal (so long as the item is available internally - it needs to be External if it is not available internally). I have dug around in the code and I cannot see a nice way of customising the pages to achieve that.
Has anyone else had this problem, and if so, have you been able to change the default?

Unfortunately, it is very specific to iProcurement - when you add an Item to the Requisition Shopping Cart, it needs to know the source of the item for the Requisition (whether it is internal from existing warehouse stock or external from a supplier) - this is the "Source" that I am talking about.
There are at least four different pages that have functionality to add items to the shopping cart (all in the oracle/apps/icx/icatalog/shopping or oracle/apps/icx/por/reqmgmt packages).
When adding to the cart, it is creating an oracle/apps/icx/por/schema/server/PoRequisitionLineEO object, but with the exception of one of the pages, the field is populated by a default.
Where there is a choice of sources, the user can explicitly select them on the oracle/apps/icx/icatalog/shopping/webui/SelectSourcePG page, but from what we can see, the same logic to set the default on this page is what is used if the user doesn't go to the page.
This SelectSourcePG uses the oracle/apps/icx/icatalog/shopping/server/SelectSourceSvrCmd class to populate and default this page. The basic default (internal or external) is driven off the logic in the POR_AUTOSOURCE_UTIL_PKG.AUTOSOURCE stored PL/SQL Packaged Procedure. This procedure queries the Purchasing Sourcing Rules and for our data (unfortunately) this always returns a default External source.
Based on your answer to my other post, I will try a warning message on the creation of the entity object and see how that goes.

Distribution Model (ALE) - Message type has to be deleted from model view

Hello,
I want to delete a message type from an existing model view in the distribution model (of the maintenance system).
But when I mark the concerning message type and press Edit->Delete the message 'Action cannot be carried out on the nodes selected' occures. Deleting the complete model view would work...
Does anyone know how I can get this without setting up a new model view?
Many thanks in advance,
Juergen

hi,
>>'Action cannot be carried out on the nodes selected'
you get this message if you try to delete a message type
from a model view that was not created on your system
(it has been replicated and it's maintained on another system)
so you can only delete this message type on the system that has
"master" distribution model
if it's not master then it's usually grey and you can only delete if it's black in change mode
>Deleting the complete model view would work...
if you try that you will see info that it's not the "master" system for this model
check it and let me know
Regards,
Michal Krawczyk

Reg: Distribution model

Hi All,
We have an IDoc exchange scenario like this:
1) We will receive a MBGMCR01 Idoc from a third party system into SAP system A. The same IDoc has to be dispatched to following SAP systems B1, B2, B3,...B10.
2) In system A, the target system B(n) for the incoming IDoc MBGMCR01 must be decided based on the purchase org value coming in the IDoc.
Question on part1: Can we use distribution model for the above scenario? Links for sample tutorials on creation of Distribution model would be highly helpful.
Question on part2: How can we do such a design using Distribution model? Can filters be useful?
thanks in advance.
Vish.

Hi Vishwanath,
Yes, you can use the distribution model. Just go through the following steps to create the distribution model.
1. Go to change mode in transaction BD64 and click on u201CCreate Model Viewu201D from the Application tool bar. Give a Short text, Technical Name for the model. The Start date by default would be current date and the end date would be 31.12.9999. Just click on u201CContinueu201D.
2. Select the model just created, and click on, u201CAdd message typeu201D from the application tool bar and give the sender, receiver and message type details.
3. In order that the distribution model maintained in the sender would be visible at the receiver, select the model view just created and from the menu bar, choose, Edit -> Model view -> Distribute.
4. Just click on continue, which will then give you the log of the distribution. You can check here if the model view was created successfully in the target system.
To design the Idoc distribution based on the purchase org, maintain filters. Drill down the model view newly created deep until you find the text, "No filter set". Click on it and create a filter group. Add purchase orgs to it.
