LDAP connector for Customer masters With SAP..........

Hi Experts ,
Our requirement is we have certain applications which are integrated
with SAP Portal.
For these applications Data sources are maintained in two different
LDAPS.
One LDAP (enterprise directory) is for USER data and the other LDAP for
Customer data(in this senario customer data is nothing but business
partner role oragnization).
MY task is to build an interface for Customer data with LDAP sync.
So here the question is, Can we use SAP standard LDAP connectors to
make connectivity to the enterprise directory(LDAP)and push business
partners data from CRM to the enterprise directory.
In Standard SAP system which are standard LDAP connectors support
this functionality?
Please advice me and also let me know if we have any SAP notes for this
senario.
Best Regards
Prasad

Thank you very much for the useful link Martin. Anyway, there are some things that I cannot find for NX Unigraphics integration:
In the wiki you can find
You can download the CAD-Integration-Software from http://service.sap.com/swdc and then goto
Installations and Upgrades > Supplementary Components for Cross Industry Solutions > Life-Cycle Data Management > SAP PLM Integrations > select the desired integration
But that path does not exist in SAP download software page.
Also, in the availability matrix I can find integration with several systems (catia, solid edge, autocad...) but not unigraphics.
Could you please provide some more information on the topic?
Thanks a lot.

Raising Customer Messages with SAP OSS on BCS issues

Hi guys,
I'd be keen to know everyone's opinion on raising customer messages with SAP OSS, in particular on BCS.
Often I find that my colleagues are hesitant to raise a note with SAP because they think it either takes too long or they don't get a satisfactory answer.
Whereas as soon as I see something fishy, that I cannot explain I will check my logic once more, check on SDN, check existing OSS notes, then raise a Customer Message immediately (while I continue to investigate/test).
This is partly due to my experience that half the time I feel like a guinea pig in BCS, perhaps because BCS is not as widespread as other modules and i may be the first to try something so may be first to experience the problem.
The first line response (often from Shanghai) usually tries to send the message straight back but I find with a little persistence, clear (and irrefutable) documentation , you soon get through to the experts in Germany (or is it Czech Rep?) who actually understand the issue.
The client has paid a lot of money for the service through their SAP licensing and maintenance fees, so I have no qualms about 'reporting a product error' when I see one.
Also, I find a lot of BCS documentation is out of date, not updated as new releases/EHPs come out, eg I recently relied on the contents of OSS note 936590, which was wrong for BCS 604. So I raised a customer message and requested that they update it, which has now been done - this is too late for me but might help someone else.
Raising a Customer Message with OSS is not an excuse to avoid doing your job, but where there is a genuine error in BCS, I encourage others to raise OSS notes and persis with them until a satisfatcory response is received.

Concur with TheScotsman.
The situation is almost the same: the 1st line support (India) very often beat back the costomer message without going deep into the problem. However, if we persist and provide additional details (or when the message was made very professionally and bypassed the 1st line) the message was rerouted to consultants from Czeck Rep.). In this case the progress was significant. Since the client do not provide access to the system, in a couple of times we made a remote session: the support guy gave directions what to do in the system and where to look for some details. The problems were solved in a half an hour.

Accounting for customer inventory in SAP

Hello Experts
Here is a scenario with which i need some help.
We sell products to various customers. Consider an example product - say ABC. The product ABC is sold to multiple retail customers. To improve our forecasting and planning accuracy we need to keep track of inventory of ABC that is available at our company premises as well as at the customers premises. We also have to distinguish the customers inventory from our inventory . While running MRP inventory at customer premises should also be taken into account .
i have to set up something similar to example below in SAP
product ABC - our locations --- total availability 1000 CS
product ABC - customer location - total availability 500 CS (customer would send us inventory data via EDI )
We have to distingusih our inventory from customer inventory (customer inventory will obviously not be available to promise to other customers). While running MRP the total stock available should be 1500 CS .
How can i setup the above scenario ? I went through a lot of documentation and forum posts but did not get a clear understanding . Can you please help .
Thanks
Aparna

Negative values for Custom field in SAP coding block !

Hi All,
Hope all of you are doing fine.
I need your valuable suggestion/possible workaround for the following requirement.
u2022 The project requires me to add a custom new field to SAP coding block, which can take negative numeric values.
u2022 The standard u201Caddition of custom fieldu201D configuration allows me to have the data type of the newly added custom field as either NUMC or CHAR. NUMC data type does not allow negative values. Standard configuration does not allow me to choose other data types (for custom field addition) like QUAN which can allow negative values (by checking the Sign at domain level in data type).
u2022 Moreover, once I have added the custom field, itu2019s not possible to change the data type of the newly added field (say from NUMC to QUAN).
I wanted to know if anyone of you have any project experience/knowledge about possible workaround, where we can add a custom field in SAP coding block, which can accept negative numeric values (through standard configuration or otherwise).

No experience on that, but I strongly advise you to not trying to do something else than what was designed by SAP. So, you can create a character type field, with for example a field exit (though this technology is obsolete, it's very useful in that case) to validate its content (and reformat it if needed).
Note that from a functional perspective, I think an amount is strange in the coding block, so maybe ask the functional people to know why they need it...

Maintenance View for custom table with foreign key relationship

Hi Folks,
I have created a custom table with foreign key relationship with other check tables. I want to create a maintenance view / tablemaintenance generator. What all things I need to take care for the foreign keys related fields while creating the maintenance view / tablemaintenance generator.
Regards,
santosh

Hi,
You do not have to do anything explicitely for the foreign key relationships in the table maintainance generator.
Create the table maintainance generator via SE11 and it will take care of all teh foreign key checks by itself.

LDAP client for solaris 9 with ds5.2 on other box

Hi
I have ds5.2 installed on Box1. I am trying to configure ldapclient on solaris 9 box. I want this to point to existing ldap server for authentication. Sun documentation is not clear about how to do that ? as some of the switches mentioned with ldapclient doesn't work. Most of the solutions I saw are on integrated solaris 9 ds server configuration. e.g idsconfig etc. I am not finding how to do basic authentication of solaris9 cient with any ldap server (ds5.2) installed on some other box.

The syntax of ldapclient changed in Solaris 9 (at least by 9 12/03). You now specify it like this:
# ldapclient -v init -a profileName=cn=myProfile,ou=profile,dc=example,dc=comIf you're using Proxy Authentication add the following:
-a proxyDN=cn=proxyagent,ou=profile,dc=example,dc=com -a proxyPassword=ClearTextPWYou should have been able to create a profile (storing it in the DIT) when you ran idsconfig. If you took the default name of "default" (cn=default,ou=profile,dc=example,dc=com) you might not even have to specify the profile name to ldapclient.
To generate a new profile and store it in the DIT use:
$ ldapclient -vgenprofile -a profileName=cn=myProfile,ou=profile,dc=example,dc=com -a defaultSearchBase=dc=example,dc=com ...With your various attributes for your profile as specified in ldapclient(1M).
As for pam, you have to decide which you're going to use: pam_unix or pam_ldap. Note that the Solaris pam_ldap is very different from the PADL pam_ldap used under Linux and elsewhere (this makes it easy to find apparently conflicting advice).

Payment terms for Customer Invoice with a credit line item

Hi all,
We have a business scenario where we create customer invoices on a weekly basis. The payment terms for these items are a certain payment discount if paid within 365 days. Included in these invoices are credit items which relate to refunds that are due to the customer.
Below is a scenario for Customer XXXX:
Invoice 1 Baseline date 12.01.2007
Invoice 2 Baseline date 08.02.2008
Invoice 3 Baseline date 15.02.2008
I have set up a payment run for this customer to direct debit their items. In my scenario I only want to pick up the first two invoices.
Therefore I set up the payment run to pick up those items which are due up to 09.02.2009, setting the next payment run posting date to 10.02.2009. I would expect the system to pick up only the first two invoices.
What the system does is that it pays/collects the first two invoices in total, but then selects only the credit items of invoice 3. I would expect it to ignore Invoice 3 altogether.
In another example if I had the same invoices, but invoice 3 did not have any credit items involved, then it does ignore invoice 3 as
expected.
I need to understand why for the credit items within a customer invoice are treated differently in relation to payment terms.
Thanks
Natalie

In the customer master assign a different credit memo term than the payment term.
Try changing the credit memo term for 3rd Invoice as such it do not fall in your selection criteria.

Filter the results set for custom iviews in SAP MDM

We have a scenario where based on the user name/user role we want to filter the results retrieved by an search result iview developed for accessing data from SAP MDM Repository.
E.g.
We have a lookup table called Plants which contains master data pertaining to manufacturing plants.
The portal user P00100xxyy is responsible for maintaining master data for a plant 1101. However, the plant lookup contains data for other plants as well.
We would like to prevent the user P00100xxyy to see/modify data for other plants in the table.
We have explored the core MDM functionality of security/constraints. It does not provide row level granularity and we are hoping that the iview approach can help us achieve row level filters.

Hi Rajni thanx for ur prompt reply
The actual problem is that :
we have approx near about 100 Account Group, so it would become very complex to replicate same condition 100 times
AND
these account group may keep on increasing so even maintenance point of view it would be hard to maintain.
can u tell me some other way to do it, i mean is there any other feature by which we can perform validation in MDM.

Kuldeep

Connector for custom built application

Hi all,
Can SAP IDM support custom application?
The application uses Oracle tables to store IDs, Roles, Passwords etc.
I am new to SAP IDM.
But I do have some experiences with Oracle IDM and IBM Tivoli IDM.
Thanks in advance,
dongsu.

So, with custom application do you mean an application that was developed from scratch in-house or in consulting project?
Then the answer is "no" for an out of the box connector to all applications. The integration depends on the APIs/technology the custom application supports and where in the end the access rights are provisioned. The only easy way (closest to out of the box) to provision rights to custom applications is when the custom application uses LDAP/AD as a user storage. You mentioned already Oracle database, it is not necessarily much more difficult than LDAP/AD if the operations translate to SQL sentences.
I think the work starts in understanding the access rights model and user management requirements in the custom application. Do you need only to create the user? Maintain several attributes for the user in the target system? Delete/inactivate the user? Would you need to provision different kind of access right levels / is the target system role based / how many roles? etc etc
Next thing is understanding how the provisioning works in IdM and how the SAP Provisioning Framework can be extended with your own plugins (plus what ever is needed).
Maybe you can post more information about the scenario for better answer..
regards, Tero

How to relate Customer UOM with SAP UOM

Hi SAP Gurus
I wanted to to relate Non-SAP customer's UOM with our SAP UOM.
For example:
Customer1 has PAK mean PAC (in SAP)
Customer2 has PAB means PAC (in SAP)
How to do that? Thanks for your inputs...
Edited by: Harpal Singh on Mar 30, 2010 10:34 PM

Hi,
You can achieve this in transformation by writing a routine.
Logic would be something like this
If non-sap customer UOM = PAB
non-sap cusomer UOM = PAC
Before doing this you need to make sure that all your non sap UOM's should correspond to correct SAP UOM's
Thanks
