Please use the subject effectively

Hi,
You can take any numbers considering that the number would be sufficient to accomodate the requirement of the company; even 3,4,5. You can even include alphabets in that. There is no hard rule that it should be 6, but the maximum is 10. Generally companies choose from 6-8; and for consolidated/group account even 10.
Please let us know if you need any further details.
Warm regards,
Murukan Arunachalam

GL A/c numbering logic for chart of accounts BAIN

Hi,
Will any expert pl let mek now What is the GL A/c numbering logic for chart of accounts BAIN (BAIN is standard ch of A/c for India apart from CAIN)?
Regards
Anand

Your question is not clear about numbering logicu2026
First of all the GL Account # are always externally assigned (it can be either numeric and alphanumeric)
The length of GL account is 10 digits. But if you give it as 6 in TC OB13 then
u2022 Numerical account numbers
The system includes zeros to the left of the number
0000001234
u2022 Alpha-numeric account numbers
The system includes zeros to the right of the number

In above posts you have solution to your problem but maybe you can think about changeing the design slightly.
I would suggest using parent_id to find parent account, instead of operations on strings which can be slower in larger tables.
SQL> create table t14(id int, account_code varchar2(16), account_name varchar2(32), parent_id int)
2 /
Table created.
SQL> insert into t14 values(1,'01','Assets',null);
1 row created.
SQL> insert into t14 values(2,'01001','Current Assets',1);
1 row created.
SQL> insert into t14 values(3,'01002','Current Assets',1);
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> select * from t14;
        ID ACCOUNT_CODE     ACCOUNT_NAME                      PARENT_ID
         1 01               Assets
         2 01001            Current Assets                            1
         3 01002            Current Assets                            1
SQL> select lpad(' ',2*(level-1)) || account_code as account_code, account_name
2 from t14
3 start with parent_id is null connect by prior id = parent_id
4 /
ACCOUNT_CODE                   ACCOUNT_NAME
01                             Assets

Report for chart of accounts by transaction

Hi All,
I am looking for Report for chart of accounts by transaction. Could any one suggest me which report it is.
Thanks,
JP

There are the answers.
1. It is enough if you generate data model and activate it.
2. With regard to Chart of Accounts, entity of COA, ACCOUNT, ACCCCDET should be mostly involved.
3. You don't need to generate tables at all because after you activate the data model, all correlative tables will be generated automatically according to the definition of the data model.
In transaction SE38, run program USMD_DATA_MODEL, you can see all generated table for your data model.
If you have other questions, please feel free to let me know.

MDGF for Chart of Accounts

I am configuring MDGF for Chart of Accounts and I want to use standard data model 0F that comes out of the box with no customization that means no use of BADI's. I have few questions on this and I would appreciate if some one helps me on these:
1. Is it enough if I generate data model 0F or do I have to generate the entity types of 0F in this case Entity type COA alone?
2. What other Entity types for data model 0F to make MDG for Chart of Accounts work?
3. If the answer is YES to question 1, after activation will I see generated Z tables as shown in
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/d4/09348181894e46a2c6cdc8e65ab28e/frameset.htm.

Maximum length for an XML schema

Hi everybody,
Is there a limit on the maximum length for an XML schema? I am trying to register an XML schema using dbms_xmlschema.registerSchema(). The schema registration process seems to go fine when the length of the schema is short. But the registration process always hangs when I increase the XML schema with additional types/elements. Is there a limit on the maximum length of the XML schema with regards to registering it to Oracle?
Thanks!
IK

Hi Erhan,
Let's say I have a really big XML schema in file "schemaA.xsd", like so:
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:sampleA="http://abc.com/schemaA" targetNamespace="http://abc.com/schemaA">
<xsd:element name="Employee">
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="Address" type="sampleA:AddressType"/>
<xsd:element name="Contact" type="sampleA:ContactInfoType"/>
</xsd:element>
<xsd:complexType name="AddressType">......</xsd:complexType>
<xsd:complexType name="ContactInfoType">....</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:schema>
I can separate this schema into multiple smaller schemas (<32KB) by using the proper imports:
In file "sampleA.xsd":
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:sampleB="http://abc.com/schemaB"
xmlns:sampleA="http://abc.com/schemaA" targetNamespace="http://abc.com/schemaA">
<xsd:import namespace="http://abc.com/schemaB" schemaLocation="schemaB.xsd"/>
<xsd:element name="Employee">
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="Address" type="sampleB:AddressType"/>
<xsd:element name="Contact" type="sampleB:ContactInfoType"/>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>
And in file "sampleB.xsd", I might have something like this:
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:sampleB="http://abc.com/schemaB" targetNamespace="http://abc.com/schemaB">
<xsd:complexType name="AddressType">......</xsd:complexType>
<xsd:complexType name="ContactInfoType">....</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:schema>
So, you see how I have separated that one really big XML schema in file "schemaA.xsd" into two XML schema files: "schemaA.xsd" and "schemaB.xsd". Also, I have added <import> tags in schemaA.xsd to refer to elements, complext types, etc. defined in schemaB.xsd. So long as these schema files are < 32KB, I can register them (using dbms_xmlschema.registerSchema()) without any problems into Oracle.
Let me know if what I said above is not too clear. Hope you find your solution soon!
Thanks!

Hierarchical ID Recursion for Chart of Accounts

This must be a pretty standard report format but so far it looks as though I’m not smart enough to figure out how to get ‘er done. I’m using 2008 R2 to work with a hierarchy of about 30k GL accounts. The hierarchy is narrow at the top—only 5 subtrees (Assets,
Liabilities, etc.)—and it is only four levels deep but the bottom levels are several thousand accounts wide.
In addition to the original Account_Number and Parent_Number columns, a straight-forward T-SQL recursive CTE has produced 3 new columns which I suppose should be useful. I’ve tried to work through the SSRS help examples on How To Create a Recursive Hierarchy
Group but it’s not getting me where I want to go.
Level     Hierarchy
Node
Account_Type
1
/1/
0x58
Assets

/2/
0x68
Liabilities
1
/3/
0x78
Equity
1
/4/
0x84
Income

/5/
0x8C
Expenses

Assets -> Cash
2
/1/2/
0x5B40
Assets -> Acct Receivable
2
/2/1/
0x6AC0
Liabilities -> Acct Payable
I would like to a report which opens showing only the top 5 accounts but which will allow User to drill down through each of the remaining 3 levels. Using an expression to indicate level by simple indentation is not an option.
Please point me to an example or some more instructions.
HomeCookN

Hi There
As far as I understand you have charts of account which have three levels and by default you would like to open first level and from there user will drill down to next level.
You could do it easily by creating three row groups and visibility of the second and third level will be hidden initially and use display can be toggle by report item as shown in the figure.
However if you don’t like to go on this track and give your user the option to select which level he would like to see after the first level then please create a parameter and give user the ability to go straight to that level.
I am putting some screenshot for your help.
If you still have a questions please let me know.
Many thanks

Is there a maximum length for a custom expression?

Is there a documented maximum length of a custom expression in a sync rule? I have been unable to find one and as of yet, have not hit one. But for curiosity's sake, I was wondering if there is a limit?
Thanks

Hello FIM-EN,
Custom Expression of Synchronization rules are saved to two attributes: Initial Flow and Persistent Flow.
Both are "Indexed string", so theoretically, the length is unlimited.

T0.Comments
FROM         OWOR T0 INNER JOIN
                      WOR1 T1 ON T0.DocEntry = T1.DocEntry INNER JOIN
                      OITM T2 ON T1.ItemCode = T2.ItemCode INNER JOIN
                      IGE1 T3 ON T1.DocEntry = T3.BaseEntry AND T1.LineNum = T3.BaseLine
WHERE T0.Status='R'
The above query returns the cost of production orders that are issued for production.The column WIP_Valuation in the query is equivalent to C/D (L/C) in Account Balance of Chart of Accounts i.e
Financials -> Chart of accounts ->WIP -> C/D (LC)
I have used user defined accounts.
But this query does not trace the goods that are returned.So the total received in query is larger than the total of chart of accounts.
For eg,
Details                                                                 C/D (LC)
Issue for Production                                           1,952.96 INR
Receipt from Production                                   (1,952.96 INR)
For the above production order the goods are returned.So 1,952.96 is subtracted.In the query I am not able to subtract 1,952.96.I am considering 1,952.96 in total.What change should be done in the query to neglect the goods that are returned.

On OJDT/JDT1, you are looking for postings that result from Production Orders, which you can identify by OJDT.TransType = 202 andOJDT.BaseRef is the production order.
I also do not know exactly how B1 can tell the difference between a Goods Issue and an Issue to Production. You would expect a flag on OIGE, but there does not seem to be one.
You could try finding the stock movements from the movements records OINM where I think OINM.ApplObj = 202 is a production movement.

Variable length field exceeds maximum length for VARRAW in SQLLOADER

Hi All,
I am trying to load some signature ascii data from load file. so i wrote the code like below in my controal file to load that to database. For SIGN_IMAGE in oracle db it was mentioned as RAW(2000). The below is worked fine when i tried in window and oracle 8i environment.
SIG_TYPE POSITION(23:23) CHAR,
SIGN_IMAGE POSITION(24:1977) VARRAW(2000)
NULLIF SIGN_IMAGE=BLANKS,
SIGN_IMAGE1 POSITION(1978:3930) VARRAW(2000)
NULLIF SIGN_IMAGE1=BLANKS
But when i ported the same thing to solaris and oracle 10g environment. The below code is giving error when SQL Loder loading.
The error is like : Variable length field exceeds maximum length.
But here i am giving a lenght of 1954 only with including 2 bytes length of the string.
Could any one tell me what is exactly the problem? i am not able sort out the issue.
Thanks,

You should probably move this question to the General Database Discussions. This forum is for Oracle Forms not SQL:*Loader.
