Itu00B4s possible use a bapi inside a macro?

Hello APO experts!!
We need to create a macro that will have to get the values of the independent demand of some sku´s and check the capacity of the productive resources...if the demand is less than the capacity, more demand (independent necessities) will have to be created to fullfill it.
There will be a lot of calculations besides the use of a bapi.
It´s possible to use a bapi inside a macro?
If you have any suggestions, please tell me.
Thanks a lot!!
Regards
Angela

yes, you would do it via an ABAP macro.
be careful with how this interacts with default macro logic in the sense that a BAPI reads data that is in the database (LC) so you may end needing to hit the save key after the macro call if you want to re-run the macro.

Performace Which is better ? : Bapi inside a loop OR Select from Tables

Hi Gurus,
I have a report which displays purchase info records.
If I am selecting from tables i need to use EINA, EINE, EORD and some other tables.
There is a BAPI which gets all purchase info records specific to a vendor , material , purchasing organisation.
QUESTION: Performace wise which is the better Approach, either selecting from tables or BAPI for Purchase info records
Regards
Avi.

Whether it using BAPI or select. you need to check the performance. If you have full key for these tables EINA, EINE, EORD then mak a select outside of the loop and within loop use READ TABLE statement with binary search. of if you want multiple records within loop then use loop insdie loop.
Your final objective is to minimise the database hits . If you use bapi inside loop then your database hits will be more
select from EINA
select from EINE
select from EORD
loop at itab,
read table EINA
read table EINE
read table EORD
endloop

Using BW BAPI's in VC

Hello,
We have an EP connected to our BI 7 backend system and are currently using it for displaying BW reports and dashboards in VC .
It is using logon tickets for user authentication in BW. Now we need to use certain Bapi's in BI in VC which can be done
only if the system is a R/3 type system. How could we possibly proceed with this without affecting the current system used in our landscape .Can I just copy the current system and change the system type and alias and proceed .
Please let me know your suggestions .
Rgds

Govindu ,
Thanks for yiur reply . Actually i was able to get bapis using a system which i copied from my existing one
and changed the system type to R/3 . But now am facing a problem with the bapis.
The bapis return output in the form of two tables - Data and Fields. Data table shows the data and fields table shows the header for the data table or all the field names. I have tried many ways ,but there seems to be no possible way to combine these two
into a proper table format in VC which i can display as output. Could you let me know your thoughts on this

Error : Access not possible using "null" objects reference

Hello.
i am working with a zbapi.
i called a external email program in this bapi,everything is working fine over here.
In webdynpro java they mapped my bapi and starting working from there.
every functionality is working fine but regarding this email stuff it is showing an error as access not possible using null objects reference.
where could be the possible error.
is it in webdynpro or in abap side.

Raghu,
You are right. When it comes from the WD Java, may be you are not passing any value at all. You can trace it by these ways.
1. Check it using SE37, make sure everyhting is fine.
2. Print all the values that you are passing to the RFC in the execute RFC method().
3. using ST05 transaction in R/3, enable RFC and SQL trace, check what is passing in between web dynpro and R/3.
Moreover paste your error message here.
Thanks,
Raj.

How to use analytical functions inside a mapping

Hello everybody. Here Isend you a trick that we are using for two years.
If you want to use a function (for instance :ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY ... ORDER BY ...)) inside a mapping you must create an expression with in the INGRP1 the fields you are going to use in the window function and in the OUTGRP1 the function you want. Create an Out -attribute with the expressión and link it to a distinct operator (using a "distinct" you encapsulte the sql and you will be able to use the function inside a filter - in the where clause.). The distinct can eliminate some register (depends on the function). If you validate the expression an error will appear (don't worry about that, the mapping will be ok).
But there is a limitation, you will not be able tou sum over, min over, max over (it detect that they are aggregator functions). Other limitation: the debugger doesn't run with this kind of functions.
Please publish this information on "The Warehouse Builder Utility Exchange". Mi email is [email protected] (if you need more information)

It is possible to add SUM, MIN, MAX functions also to OWB releases prior to Paris - You have to put them in double quotes - write "MIN" "MAX" "SUM" etc. The rest of the rules (adding cut-off operator after the expression - as DISTINCT, or UNION ALL) is analogical to with ROW_NUMBER()
That means You can create mapping with following functionality:
SELECT
sum (salary) over (partition by DEPARTMENT) department_salary,
salary,
employee_id,
employee_name
FROM employees_salaries
writing it this way in OWB:
SELECT
"SUM" (salary) over (partition by DEPARTMENT) department_salary,
salary,
employee_id,
employee_name
FROM employees_salaries

How can i execute a workflow using a bapi/wapi??

Hi All,
How can i execute a workflow using a bapi/wapi??
pls advice
thanks

Hi Hrus,
it's not as simple as a single BAPI to approve a workflow.
Workflow comes with a Workflow API (WAPI) that you can use to programmatically interact with the workflow system. The WAPI is implemented as a group of RFC-enabled function modules that are prefixed with "SAP_WAPI_".
Approving a workflow is simply taking a decision path for a workflow item. It is logically no different to rejecting the same workflow item or any other workflow decision.
As part of NetWeaver workflow is tightly coupled to the WAS platform you are running on so you may need to perform WAPI operations slightly differently on older releases.
Some of the WAPI calls you might need to use include: -
SAP_WAPI_GET_HEADER to get the workitem header
SAP_WAPI_READ_CONTAINER to get the workitem container
SAP_WAPI_GET_OBJECTS to get the attached objects
SAP_WAPI_DECISION_READ to get a list of possible decisions
SAP_WAPI_SET_WORKITEM_STATUS to set the workitem status
SAP_WAPI_WRITE_CONTAINER to write to the workitem container
SAP_WAPI_EXECUTE_WORKITEM to execute the workitem
I usually do what you are trying to do by adding the decision to the workflow container and then executing the workflow.
Be warned, you can really stuff things up if you get this wrong! Make sure you know what you are doing.
Quoting from Practical Workflow for SAP by Alan Rickayzen, et al from SAP Press...
Writing directly to the workflow container is dangerous because it can compromise the integrity of the process.
...be careful that you do not waste time duplicating existing ad hoc features of SAP's Workflow Engine.
For example you can use events (combined with wait steps), instead of container modifications to force the workflow to restart.
Cheers

Is it possible using SQLite to collect data from an older SQL database?

Is it possible using SQLite to collect data from an older SQL database? Where can I find a possible answer. Thanks in advance.

There are 3rd-party tools (see comprehensive list at http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html) that provide extra pdf functionality on top of the pdf export from Crystal.
In the case of my Visual CUT software, you can use hidden formulas inside your Crystal report to generate form fields (pre-populated as well as empty) as part of the pdf export process.

I have a remote procedure and I can call it using http over rpc. I pass trough an rpc proxy server for arriving to my rpc server.
But I cannot call a callback function to my client inside the server function.
Is it possible using callback function with ncacn_http and rpcproxy server ?
We are using IIS on windows server 2008 R2 and the server rpc and the client on the same PC with rpc rpoxy.
If I use ncan_ip_tcp all works fine.

Structure used in BAPI with prdefined field

Hi All,
Is it ok to use predefined field in a structure used in BAPI? Will there be any limitation? Any advantage if we use data elements and domains.
Regards,
Seema

Hi,
Using predefined fileds in a structure should not be a problem. The only think you should consider is if there is a possibility that the component owner to which this structure belongs may change this structure. So if you are sure that there will be no such risk, then go ahead.
Domains cannot be directly used within a program/FM/BAPI. Domains can only be associated with Data elements that can be used in BAPI. It is always safe to use DATA ELEMENTS as generally changes to them are avoided as they have huge dependencies.
I hope this clarifies your query.
Best Regards,
Saurabh

Use of BApi

Wat is the use of bapi .in sap...
thx.
regurds .
nainesh.

hi,
what is BAPI?
BAPI stands for Business API(Application Program Interface).
A BAPI is remotely enabled function module ie it can be invoked from remote programs like standalone JAVA programs, web interface etc..
You can make your function module remotely enabled in attributes of Function module but
A BAPI are standard SAP function modules provided by SAP for remote access. Also they are part of Businees Objest Repository(BOR).
BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. the difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects. You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository) which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA. in this case u only specify the business object and its method from external system in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types. These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business object types. Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs. Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI.
The following standardized BAPIs are provided:
Reading instances of SAP business objects
GetList ( ) With the BAPI GetList you can select a range of object key values, for example, company codes and material numbers.
The BAPI GetList() is a class method.
GetDetail() With the BAPI GetDetail() the details of an instance of a business object type are retrieved and returned to the calling program. The instance is identified via its key. The BAPI GetDetail() is an instance method. BAPIs that can create, change or delete instances of a business object type
The following BAPIs of the same object type have to be programmed so that they can be called several times within one transaction. For example, if, after sales order 1 has been created, a second sales order 2 is created in the same transaction, the second BAPI call must not affect the consistency of the sales order 2. After completing the transaction with a COMMIT WORK, both the orders are saved consistently in the database.
Create( ) and CreateFromData! ( )
The BAPIs Create() and CreateFromData() create an instance of an SAP business object type, for example, a purchase order. These BAPIs are class methods.
Change( )
The BAPI Change() changes an existing instance of an SAP business object type, for example, a purchase order. The BAPI Change () is an instance method.
Delete( ) and Undelete( ) The BAPI Delete() deletes an instance of an SAP business object type from the database or sets a deletion flag.
The BAPI Undelete() removes a deletion flag. These BAPIs are instance methods.
Cancel ( ) Unlike the BAPI Delete(), the BAPI Cancel() cancels an instance of a business object type. The instance to be cancelled remains in the database and an additional instance is created and this is the one that is actually canceled. The Cancel() BAPI is an instance method.
Add<subobject> ( ) and Remove<subobject> ( ) The BAPI Add<subobject> adds a subobject to an existing object inst! ance and the BAPI and Remove<subobject> removes a subobject from an object instance. These BAPIs are instance methods.

Bdc to Bapi
The steps to be followed are :
1. Find out the relevant BAPI (BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE for VA02).
[for VA01 use BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2]
2. Create a Z program and call the BAPi (same as a Funtion module call).
2. Now, if you see this BAPi, it has
-> Importing structures.
eg: SALESDOCUMENT: this will take the Sales order header data as input.
-> Tables parameters:
eg: ORDER_ITEM_IN: this will take the line item data as input.
Note :
Only specify fields that should be changed
Select these fields by entering an X in the checkboxes
Enter a U in the UPDATEFLAG field
Always specify key fields when changing the data, including in the checkboxes
The configuration is an exception here. If this needs to be changed, you need to complete it again fully.
Maintain quantities and dates in the schedule line data
Possible UPDATEFLAGS:
U = change
D = delete
I = add
Example
1. Delete the whole order
2. Delete order items
3. Change the order
4. Change the configuration
Notes
1. Minimum entry:
You must enter the order number in the SALESDOCUMENT structure.
You must always enter key fields for changes.
You must always specify the update indicator in the ORDER_HEADER_INX.
2. Commit control:
The BAPI does not run a database Commit, which means that the application must trigger the Commit so that the changes are read to the database. To do this, use the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT BAPI.
For further details... refer to the Function Module documentation for the BAPi.
Bapi to VB(Visual Basic)
Long back I had used the following flow structure to acheive the same.
Report -> SM59 RFC destination -> COM4ABAP -> VB.exe
my report uses the rfc destination to create a COM session with com4abap. com4abap calls the vb.exe and manages the flow of data between sap and vb exe.
You need to have com4abap.exe
If com4abap is installed you will find it in sapgui installatin directory , C:\Program Files\SAPpc\sapgui\RFCSDK\com4abap.
else refer OSS note 419822 for installation of com4abap
after making the settings in com4abap to point to the vb program and setting up rfc destination in sm59 to point to com4abap session , you can use the following function modules to call the vb code.
for setting up com4abap and rfc destination please refer to the documentation for com4abap.

Using PHP variable inside MySQL recordset

Can someone let me know if this is possible? I'm trying to
use a variable inside a recordset. The code below is what I have at
present but it white screens me when I try open it the page in the

BAPI inside WF event trigger problem

Hi Guys,
Here's my problem:
I'm triggering a WF from the Business objects BUS2032, event CHANGED (for sales orders). But the first step in the workflow is to block the order for delivery, so I'm using the BAPI BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE to modify the field delivery block of that sales order.
The problem is that when the BAPI is executed, the event CHANGED from the BO BUS2032 is triggered, so the WF is triggered again, and so on...it's like a loop.
So my question is, is there a way to modify the sales order inside the WF without triggering any event inside the WF?
Thanks!

Hi MatiasAZ,
Change standard code to not trigger the event is not recommended.
Alternatively,You can put a check in your workflow to complete itself if there is another workflow is running for the same sales order.
Or you can also put filter function module on the event linkage via transaction SWETYPV not to trigger the event if there is a workflow running for that sales order.
Transaction SWI6 can tell you that any workflow with specific object is running.

Updating the WBS Summarization Charactaristics (PSMERK) in PS using a BAPI

Hi there
I would really appreciate any help in this matter, as the issue is becoming critical.
I am trying to update the Summarization fields of the Top Level WBS elements. The Summarization fields are created in Customer Include CI_PSMERK, in table PSMERK.
From the SAP documentation I have found that it is possible to change the WBS values (In table PRPS) using BAPI_BUS2054_CHANGE_MULTI. You can also activate the summarization fields tab using this BAPI.
Does anyone know of a way in which you can programmatically change the Summarization values using a BAPI?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, and points will be awarded.
Regards,
Johan Kriek.

Not sure if FM- PS_SUMM_EXIT_PSMERK would be of help.
Check the source code comments of this FM, it might provide some leads.
Also refer note 313899.
