Limitations of the XI Fileadapter

Scenario description
- We have 10 different XML messages / Interfaces that needs to be converted to fixed position based flat files.
- The files needs to be delivered to 80 different file locations.
- Some messages needs to be delivered to all 80 locations.
- Some messages needs to be delivered to only one of the 80 locations based on content of the messages (ex. customer number)
Solutions
1. Using Party and file adapters.
- This will enable us to route messages to correct file communication channel(s)
- This will require 80 file communication channels pr message type that will result in the total of 800 file communication channel configurations and 800 receiver agreements.
     Problem
     - For each message format that changes, we need to update 80 file communication channels
     - Time consuming and loss of overview inside XI configuration.
2. Using External program to route message
- Fileadapter support OS level commands that can be used to trigger a program to read filetype and content of the file. This information can be used to deliver the message to correct location
     Problem
     - Monitoring inside XI is limited to writing of the file. Error when executing external program is not reported to XI.
     - External maintenance of file locations.
     - Monitoring and maintenance of external program is required.
3. Creating a custom java module in the JMS adapter.
- Custom module replaces the modules in the module chain that delivers the message.
     Problem
     - Supports only simple conversion of xml to flat files
     - Debugging and development of module is difficult and time consuming.
Conclusion
XI is not able to solve our needs properly.
- Solution 3 is considered the best way to solve the problem, but because of the limited documentation and poor debugging and error reporting when developing, this solution has been abandoned.
- None of the other solutions is considered satisfying.
If anyone has comments or an alternative solution, please help.

Maintain tolerance limits in the Tolerance key

Hi,
Could any one help me how to maintain these Tolerance limits in the Tolerance key. This is an error I receive while creating a PO.
Best Regards,
Sridhar.k

What is the Error Mesaage no you are getting??
Solution is as Follows
Set Tolerance Limits for Price Variance
In this step, you define the tolerance limits for price variances.
When processing a purchase order, the system checks whether the effective price of a PO item shows variances compared with the valuation price stored in the material master record. In addition, it checks whether the specified cash discount value is admissible.
Variances are allowed within the framework of tolerance limits. If a variance exceeds a tolerance limit, the system issues a warning or error message.
In the SAP System, the types of variance are represented by the tolerance keys. For each tolerance key, you can define percentage and value-dependent upper and lower limits per company code.
Standard settings
The standard SAP System supplied contains the following tolerance keys:
PE Price variance, Purchasing
Tolerance limit for system message no. 207. This message appears if the specified effective price exceeds the predefined tolerances when compared with the material price.
SE Maximum cash discount deduction, Purchasing
Tolerance limit for system message no. 231. This is a warning message, which appears when the specified cash discount percentage exceeds the predefined tolerances.
Note
You can specify whether the system message appears as a warning or error message using the menu options <b>Environment -> Define Attributes of System Messages.</b>
Activities
Maintain the tolerance limits for each tolerance key per company code

Limitation on the number of characters in an input field

Hi All,
We are on EP 7.0 SP12.
When I select an input field/text editor and map it to a field in a BAPI it truncates the value to 80 characters and thus I get the truncated value in the result.
When I pass a value larger than 80 characters in length while doing test data service, it works fine and I face this issue only while passing the data from the screen. Is this a bug in VC? Or if any one has a solution to this?

Murtuza

Hi Ganesh,
Following are the Answers regaring your queries:
Query : 1
There is no limitation on the number of components (objects, classes, tables, joins, hierarchies, lov's, etc) in a universe. But of course as the number of components increases, you could run into problems related to performance.
This depends on available RAM and the processing speed.
Query 2:
There is NO such option to select the number of table to be automatically inserted in to the universe because Suppose if you have 22000 tables in DB and you want only 1000 table ,you entered 1000 tables as the value to insert tables in Universe then How Designer will come to know which tables you want to take in Schema to build the Universe?
It all depends on the DBA and Universe Designer which tables are important for organizations reporting needs.
When you create connection to the DB then Connection will fetch all table from the database and we canu2019t limit DB data retrieval.
I hope this Helps...

Limitation on the number of Collections in a Page ?

Hi All,
Can I know if there is any limitation on the number of collections I can create on a page ?
Thanks,
Rads

Rads,
Collections are not limited to a page but to a user's specific apex session
"Collections enable you to temporarily capture one or more nonscalar values. You can use collections to store rows and columns currently in session state so they can be accessed, manipulated, or processed during a user's specific session. You can think of a collection as a bucket in which you temporarily store and name rows of information."
[http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23903_01/doc/doc.41/e21674/advnc_collections.htm#HTMDB13002] .
The documentation should answer all your questions.

Limitation on the number of applications for a domain?

Does anyone know if there is a limitation on the number of applications you can

it seems to stuck on some infinite loop, keep printing out the samemessage saying
it's trying to active xxx.jar, but as soon as I reduce the number ofEJBs to a
certain number(238) in this directory, weblogic server started correctly,deployed
xxx.jar just fine.Without more information (like showing me what error it printed out),

can't tell you where the problem lies.
However, the server is limited by the heap size, and the class size
space is another limit you might hit.
I would suggest increasing the heap size as well as the MaxPermSize in
your JVM.

Is there any configuration I need to set on the domain?

Limitation on the number of tables in a Database Schema!

Hi All,
Is there a limitation on the number of tables present in a schema that can be fetched in Designer while creating a universe.
Customer is using Oracle schema which contains 22000 tables and while trying to insert tables in Designer XIR2 (or trying to get the table browser) Designer hangs.
In BO 6.5 there are no issues while retrieving the tables from the schema in Designer.
Is there a way to retrieve only a certain amount of tables in Designer XIR2?
Thanks for your help!

Limitation on the data stored in community preferences

Is there a limitation on the amount of data stored in community preferences?
Thanks
Sampath

no there is not in the portal...but remember: the community preferences (as well as the other type of preferences) are passed to your portlet code through HTTP header and that's where the limit is (it depends on the app server / web server you are using...i.e. i think tomcat limits by default http header size to 16k)...plus having a lot of data in your preference will be a performance hog for your portlet (much more data goes back and forth beteen portal and portlet)
Hope that helps.

Can I set my macbook to install updates at a specific time? My internet is limited through the day but between 2am and 7am it is unlimited?

My internet is limited through the day and I want to know if I can set a specific time for updates to be carried out to make sure my macbook is working efficiently.

Yes. When you get a notification that an update is available, select "Try Tonight". That will constrain the update to occur between 2:00 and 5:00 AM.

I just bought a docking station for my iPad so I could plug into a mixing board and record a live show. I was disappointed at the time limitation for the recordings. What is the maximum amount you can record a song into GB for the iPad?

I purchased a docking station for my iPad so that I could record a live recording of my band directly from a mixing board this weekend using GarageBand. Unfortunately, I was unaware of the song length limitations of the iPad version of this program. Basically, was unable to capture more than 15 minutes of the gig. I've read other conversations on this forum and can't really determine the maximum amount of time this application can record. Can anyone tell me how long GarageBand for ipad can record at one single time and how to adjust the settings to achieve this? Also, is anyone aware of any other apps than could be used to record a longer please share. Thanks.
CP

I received an email reply from George, the Founder and CEO of Studiomini, he indicated to me that their app does not have any time limitations in regards to recording like GB does, you are only limited by the amount of free space on your iPad. Fo what it's worth, I think the Alesis IO Dock is an amazing piece of equipment. I would highly recommend purchasing the IO Dock and plugging your mixing board into the dock to capture your rehearsal. Hopefully the feedback I received from Studiomini is accurate and I can capture my entire rehearsal at one time. I hope this feedback helps. One last note, apparently their will be a update soon to view Studiomni in the landscape view on the iPad instead of just the portrait view.

What are the limitation of the 4 Port Gigabit ethernet Security Service Module (4GE SSM)?

I was wondering if anyone can help me out. I am trying to create a redundancy topology which require several connections to an ASA 5510. I am looking at extending the connections to my ASA 5510 appliance with the four port gig ethernet security module (4GE SSM). I am trying to find out what the limitations are on this particular module.
I have heard that there might be limitations to the 4GE SSM. Such as the interfaces on this module might process data separately from the ASA 5510 appliance. My question is does the ASA four port gig ethernet security module (4GE SSM) interfaces act as a extension of the ASA 5510 appliance or does it process and filter data separate from the ASA 5510 appliance ?
My concerns are that the 4GE SSM does not utilize all the security features of the ASA 5510 appliance, and that it just separates traffic into security zones. I interpret that to mean that each interface can be placed in a separate security level in which case has a separate security algorithm and uses the security level to force security policies. Nothing more.
My second question if relevant would be what are the limitations?
Thank you for your help on this topic.
mike

The 4GE SSM just gives you the four additional ports. It doesn't increase the processing capacity of the 5510 (a relatively low end box whose replacement - the 5515X - has been out since this past spring). It works off the same configuration script and CPU as all the built-in ports.
The only limitation I can think of off the top of my head is that members of an Etherchannel cannot span the SSM and the built-in ports.

My music library is too large for my iPad. If I use the cloud, will I still be able to access audio files or does it all end up having to be saved on my iPad? In other words...am I limited to the space on my iPad memory?

Do I still need to have enough space on my iPad for my whole music library? Seems like I must be missing something...why would I want to be limited by the memory space on my mobile device? Is there another way to share audio files between my computer and my iPad other than iTunes?

It depends on whihch IPad you purchased. The 16GB, the 32GB, or the 64GB for storage.
Tap Settings > General > About. You'll see Capacity in the list.
How Mac OS X and iOS report storage capacity
You get 5GB of free storage space with iCloud but you can purchase more if necessary.
Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices
If you setup an iCloud account, it won't be necessary to sync your iPad media with iTunes. Everything is synced via your Wi-Fi network with iCloud.
If you do not want to use iCloud for storage and syncing, iTunes is the only software you can use to sync iTunes media with an iOS device.

Why is there a limitation on the number of boolean parameters in a custom function?

We have a custom function which 'flattens' four text temporal values into a single temporal value.
We want to do the same with boolean temporal values.
However, OPM throws an error when it reads the metadata for the function in extensions.xml. It says all boolean paramaters need to be last. We can't put them all last as there are more than one.
This is OPM error code OPM-W00001.
Any ideas on how I can work around this limitation?

Taken from OPA Developer's help:
Only one boolean parameter can be passed to a function, and it must be the last parameter. This is due to a limitation in the rule compiler. Any number of other parameters may be present however.
Should you want to pass more boolean values, create a temporary/document text variable with values "True"/"False" using rule table.

Is there a limitation on the no. of digits for constant function

hi
I want to compare a value of a certain field with a Constant with 89999999999 and pass the value only if it is less than this . I am using the less standard function and comparing the value .If it less than that only then I can pass the value however it is not able to compare more 7 digits.
Is this a limitation in the Constant Function?

Hi,
I know what is your problem coz I faced similar issue with Arithmetic function. So in order to solve the problem I added the paramter com.sap.aii.mappingtool.flib3.bigdecimalarithmetic in Exchange Profile as mentioned in the blog.
/people/thorsten.nordholmsbirk/blog/2006/08/25/new-arithmetic-and-statistical-functions-in-message-mappings-in-sp18
Note: After doing the changes you need to restart the JAVA server.
It works for me coz I have implemented the same in my system.

Is there a limitation on the Size of Attachments to SBO Documents?

Hi, Experts.
Is there a size limitation to the Attachments that you can Attatch to an SBO Document like an Activity?
Does this depend only on the Hardware Specifications, or does SBO also limit the Size of Attachments?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Marli

Hi Marli,
There is no limitation on the size of attachment. Otherwise also, SBO stores only the name of the file and copies it to the attachment folder. Since, in SBO, only the name is stored, therefore the size of the attachment does not matter.

Web Dynpro context field limitation for the form

Hello,
I have created a Web Dynpro with the context fields for Adobe form data from a structure (about 51 fields). When the form is created with reference to the context, the context is not transferred to the Adobe form.
Similarly created another Web Dynpro context with only 2 fields from the structure for Adobe data, in such case the context fields are transferred to the Adobe form.
Any limitation on the number of fields to be transferred from Web Dynpro Context to the Adobe form?
NOTE: Using ABAP Web Dynpro.
Thanks,
Anjali
Message was edited by: Anjali Joglekar

Hello,
I think I found the issue. The structure I was using had many fields with data type declared has STRING (with no definite length), in such cases the context is not copied over to the form.
After modifying the structure fields, with appropriate length data elements, the same structure fields are carried over from Web Dynpro Context to the form.
Any idea why such limitation is there for the structure field length?
Thanks,
Anjali
