Manually updating company names for a given company code in BCS

Is there a way where we do not have to manually update the names? we update the company names in UCWB > Master Data > Consolidation Units > Company
We are maintaining the updated company code names in the source system but how can we do away with maintaining it separately in BCS? Is there a program that we can run in SAP to update the legal entity names as seen in BCS? Please advise.

Dan is right to be cautious, i've seen this cause problems.
It's not very difficult to make the chnages in BCS, and if you have a lot of them/frequent changes, you can always use create an upload method
and then make all future changes by .txt file

How to identify all the information for a given company code?

Hi,
Our company provides data migration services for SAP and other ERP applications. Our customers provide us the specifications for extractions and conversions. We use one or more 3rd party tools to extract data from legacy systems into text/Excel files. Customers use LSMW to load generated files.
We just got an unusual request. This customer wants to get ALL the data from SAP for a given company code and dump into Excel. They would do some manual editing on the data and load it into a new SAP client.
In the past, customers would be more specific in their requirements. For example, they will mention Materials, Customers, Inventory, etc. In this case, the customer simply wants ALL the data for a given company code.
Q1. Is everything in SAP related to company code, either directly or indirectly? For example, can materials be filtered by company code?
Q2. The tools that we use let us extract data from SAP using SQL-like queries. How do I identify ALL the tables that I would need for a given company code?
My feeling is the customer themselves are not clear on what they really want. Perhaps they are expecting us to guide them.
I would appreciate any thoughts that you may have.
If there is a more appropriate forum for this question, please let me know.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Peter

How to get cost center ranges for a given company and division...

Hello Experts,
Is there a table, BAPI or FM that can get the company or division of a given cost center?
Currently I am creating cost center ranges in my program but that is not the best way to do it
since they can always add or delete cost centers. Just like in transaction OKEON wherein you
can see the cost center ranges for a given company or division.
Hope you can help me guys. Thank you and take care!

Hi Viray,
You can try BAPI 'BAPI_COSTCENTER_GETDETAIL1'.
You need to pass controlling area and cost center detail to this BAPI.
It will return the cost center detail in return.
Hope this helps you.
Thanks,
Arun

C Programming: How can we get the filesystem name for a given file-path?

C Programming: How can we get the filesystem name for a given file-path?
Say I have a filepath=/mnt1/file1
Using some OS API like stat, can I get the Filesystem /mnt ?
Thanks in advance,
-V

Enter the command up to the point of entering the file path and add a space, then drag the file into the terminal window. It will fill out the path.
If you need to go further into the contents of the Application package, you can continue with /Contents...
Another way is to start typing and then hit Tab to auto-complete. It will stop where it can't determine the next letter.
So, type /App tab and it will fill in /Applications. Type a / and start with the name of the app, then tab and it should complete. Continue till you have the correct path.
Spaces will be replaced with \<space>, so, App Store would end up as /Applications/App\ Store.app

Update Tax Code Name for EU type Tax Code

Hi Experts
I would like to update the tax code name for Input Tax Codes which have the EU box checked. The system always gives me the error message 'Value Must Be Empty - Tax Definition EU'. Is there a way around this please? - it's only the Name that I want to update.
Many thanks!
Caroline

Hi Caroline,
It will not be possible to change the TAX CODE or TAX CODE NAME. You will need to remove the TAX CODE.
But, It there are transaction against the TAX code you will need to create a new TAX CODE.
Pls refer to SAP Note : 1032062 for the Error Message : 'Value Must Be Empty - Tax Definition EU'
Thanks

Seem to have multiple apple ids one on computer one on iPod cannot use iTunes because password for old id not recognized cannot update user name for ipod

cannot update username on ipod for itunes
why are they all different. Why don't I have just one id?
I cannot update apps.
password for username not recognized
I want one apple id for everything
one password for everything
I cannot retrieve or reset anything for itunes to update apps

It appears that you have apps on the iPod that wer purchased with more than one iTunes account. If one from more than one iTunes account need updating, you need to update them one at a time (not update all) until all the remianing apps were purchased from one account. You may need to change the accont the iPId is signed into by go to Settings>Store and signing out and in.
Accounts can't be merged.

Default caller name for a given phone number

If you have multiple contacts that have a phone number in common, is it possible to decide which of those contacts is the default display name for that number?
For example, I have an entry for my wife. I also have an entry for "ICE" (In Case of Emergency). They're essentially the same. When my wife calls or texts me, the display says "ICE." I want it to say "Wife."
Is this possible?

Nope.
BTW, I am curious, do you have a passcode lock on your phone? If so, doesn't that pretty much make any ICE contact pointless since they cannot access the phone?
Understand your desire to have it there though. Also, there are apps out there (think called ICE) that can let you put a icon on your screen that says ICE and then link that to a number.

My phone does not show contact names for country and area code while having in coming calls. Although, I have endorsed the name with numbers. How do I the problem. My one is a iphone 3s device with updated os. Please text to help

My iphone does not recognize saved contact number while having incoming calls due to country and area code as auto prefix. How do i fix the problem. How do i ensure that the phone recognize calls with and without the country and area code. Please text to help.

1) Open the Phone and dial *228. This is a Verizon over-the-air programming number.
2) When the system answer press 1 for "Program or activate your phone"
3) Wait for the call to disconnect. You should get a prompt stating something like, "Settings updated."
4) Open the Task Manager and kill the Phone, Message, and Contacts Applications
5) Wait a few minutes (I waited 3 just to be extra safe)
6) Open the Message App to verify the fix

Get file path name for an given FileInputStream

It sounds wired, but I do want to see if it is possible. Say we have a FileInputStream fis, which has been instantiated and valid. I would like to get the File associated with this FileInputStream. Is this possible and how?
Thanks.

Thanks.A FileInputStream may not be associated with a "disk file" at all. From javadocs, FileInputStream can be created from a [url http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/io/FileInputStream.html#FileInputStream(java.io.FileDescriptor)]FileDescriptor, which can represent [url http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/io/FileDescriptor.html#skip-navbar_top]an open file, an open socket, or another source or sink of bytes.

How to update LTDX table for ZReport of T-Code FBL5N

Hi,
We have copied report RFITEMAR(T-code FBL5N) to ZRFITEMAR(T-Code ZFBL5N), to meet some of our requirement.
Now, It is not showing Layouts in F4 help of screen field "Layout" in ZFBL5N and also we are not able to set default variant for the same.
I found the issue is, First it goes to table LTDX to search for any default/1SAP variant but it didn't find any entries in the table.
If we can make this entry(Report: ZFITEMRA, Variant: 1SAP) in table LTDX, then issue can be solved. Please let me know if any other way is available for this type of issue.
Thank you.

Hi
FI_ITEMS_DISPALY is used by FBL1N, FBL3N and FBL5N and now (in your system) ZFBL5N, but the problem is FI_ITEMS_DISPLAY expects to be called only by standard transaction so:
if not is_u_variant-variant is initial.
*   check existence of named variant:
    perform alv_variant_check changing x_varexist.
    if x_varexist is initial.
      message i000(msitem) with is_u_variant-variant.
    endif.
else.
*   check existence of default variant:
    perform alv_default_check changing x_varexist.
endif.
if x_varexist is initial.
*   take 1SAP, if it exists:
    clear is_u_variant.
    case acctype.
      when 'D'.
        is_u_variant-report = c_program_ar.
      when 'K'.
        is_u_variant-report = c_program_ap.
      when 'S'.
        is_u_variant-report = c_program_gl.
    endcase.
    is_u_variant-variant = '1SAP'.
    is_u_variant-username = sy-uname.
    perform alv_variant_check changing x_varexist.
    if x_varexist is initial.
      clear is_u_variant.
    endif.
endif.
As you can see, the fm check if the variant exists and if you don't move any variant the fm check if a default variant exists, if both controls fail then fm overwrites the report name.
So I believe you should create a default variant in order to avoid the fm overwrites the report name
