Modifying Condition Decision Table in TM 8.0

I have created a condition with 5 Data Access Definitions. When I go to the Decision Table, it is only on half the page and none of the columns are readable. I am fairly new to personalizing the page and need some insight into how to get the table to fit across both halves of the page with the goal that it will be readable. I am willing to modify the underlying UIBB, but am a bit paranoid about breaking something.
Is there a way to personalize the page in NWBC for just myself so that the column contents are readable?
Thanks,
Mike

Did you define the Incompatibility (under Application Administration)? I think you would enter the Incompatibility in the Ev. Result. The condition would define which incompatiblity would apply in your given circumstances. Perhaps you would be better off with a Condition for a different FUBR to apply with a product ID of Milk? Or set it up as the Incompatibilty Settings in your Transportation Cockpit (which would apply a given Incompatibility when planning).

Issue Using Boolean Attribute in Decision Tables Conditions

I'm using Oracle BPM Suite 11g 11.1.1.4.0 for my application. In my business rules, I need to use the nillable boolean attribute in Decision Table conditions, so I import java.lang.Boolean class in the Java Facts, I append .booleanValue() to the condition. I validate the rule, it's ok. Then I deploy my application to server, when I test the my process, i encounter a error:

HasAssets is Bool type. If I remove java.lang.Boolean in Java Fact, and remove conditions of hasAssets, the process run perfectly.
Can you help me?

How to use complex function as condition in Oracle Rule Decision Table?

How to use complex function as condition in Oracle Rule Decision Table?
We want to compare an incoming date range with the date defined in the rules. This date comparison is based on the input date in the fact & the date as defined for each rule. Can this be done in a decision table?

I see a couple of problems here.
First, what you posted below is not a syntactically valid query. It seems to be part of a larger query, specifically, this looks to be only the GROUP BY clause of a query.

How to display modified condition base value in Pricing Procedure?

Hi everyone:
I used a formula to change the condition base value (via the VOFM transaction) of various price conditions that are assigned to the same material. In this way, I can distribute the total quantity of the item line in smaller quantities for each price condition.
Now the problem is that in the conditions tab of the sales order, I can not see the Condition Base Value of each Price Condition, and that's a little confusing.
Did Anyone know's a way to show the modified Condition Base Value in the Pricing Procedure of the Condition Tab?
Thanks a lot,
Ginno Giuffra

Thanks JJ:
Yes, I can found the modified base value in the condition details, but I still need to show it in the Pricing Procedure scheme.
It is curious that the table options does not allow you to add that field to the escheme.
Does anyone knows a user exit wich can modifye the table?
Thanks again,
Ginno Giuffra

How to change data in decision table using excel file in operating system?

Hello, BRF Experts
I now brf + for the first time in the current project is being developed.
Now, project has been facing a big problem.
Develop system that was developed in the history of decision table in the operating system can be used to update excel file, etc. I do not know whether.
So, I was tested, but can not change data in decision table.
[ error message : system is not change allowed ].
The operating system itself to the current system setting is immutable and check it
: changes and transports for client-specific object -> no changed allowed
: cross-client object changes -> no changes to repository and cross-client customizing object.
Decision table in the operating system can update the details if I want to know what to do.
Maintenance view can be modified in the operating system as a decision table, I wonder if you can create a view.

Hi ,
Exchanging data with Microsoft Excel is done with the help of the XML-based file format (file extension .XSLX) introduced with Microsoft Excel 2007. If you are using an older version of Microsoft Office, you can download the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack to upgrade the supported file formats from the Microsoft Download Center ([Exchanging Decision Table Data With Microsoft Excel |http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=941b3470-3ae9-4aee-8f43-c6bb74cd1466]). Once you have downloaded the Compatibility Pack, you have to install it on every workstation that has an older version of Microsoft Office installed.

API or Trick to Access Decision Table Content

Hi,
I am modeling a BPM process which calls web services based on a BRM rule with a decision table. In the beginning I need to read the decision table content into the BPM process context (in order to get the selection condition for reading objects from an SCM system). Is there a way I can access the content of this BRM decision table (via web service, java or any other way)?
Thanks,
Eduard

Hi Eduard,
From what I understand(from the post and my brief discussion with Michael Hill few days back), there are a set of work orders in the SCM system that you want to read and see if they meet the scrap tolerance level. But the Decision Table doesnt have scrap tolerance level defined for all combinations of product type/date etc.
So you want to
(1)initially get the parameters for which scrap tolerance is defined (read the contents of decision table)
(2)get only those work orders from the SCM (filter outside rules)
(3)check if these work orders satisfy the scrap tolerance level (rule execution)
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Can we remove the steps (1) and (2) and instead get all the work orders from the SCM system and see if they satisfy the scrap tolerance level(only rule execution, filtering is also done in rule). For work orders whose scrap tolerance is not defined, the decision table will not return the default value. So if the default value is returned(filtering), no check is made if scrap is within tolerance.
Please let me know your opinion.
Regards,
Sowmya

Hi Pratap,
No, this is not possible. The Decision Table API is not public and the condition and action values can be changed only through the NWDS in BRM 7.1.1

Decision table rules manager content disappearing

Hi Experts,
We have BRM decision table deployed . I can access that from Portal and Rules manager . I can modify the content of that table . No Problem till now .
The problem is :
Every time transport happens to P for any thing (not related to table ), that content of table is removed automatically .And i have to do the entries again Manually .
this is very difficult and unreliable . Please suggest how we can make that content persistent even we deploy something .or how can i upload content fast after deployment . say from some excel or file .

Hi Govind,
Well it could be a real problem but I suspect you are missing a couple of steps... to check...
Before making any changes in your NWDS, you should be downloading the current active version of the Rules Project and importing that into your NWDS. Suggest you read the SAP Library help on this one and you'll need to get security to give you BRM Download access - there's a security action for this that they need to add to your security role in the production environment.
This is the link you need:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/4d/9d62f71ede478e9496a29fe1533976/frameset.htm
As for how to upload the decision tables content en masse... that's that the export/import (to/from MS Excel) buttons are for in the decision table section of Rules Manager and where you, or better still your business user (these are business rules after all ), should be doing this.
Hope that helps,
Jocelyn

How can an user update "Decision Table" in BRM?

Dear Friends,
I have some query related to BRM and I am using it for the first time. So my query could be very simple but kindly reply friends.
Lets say, I would create a set of decision tables in BRM....but the values in the decision table are to be maintained by the user...so how would the user maintain these values in the decision table? I know about only these 3 methods....
     i) changing the values directly in rules composer
     ii) upload an excel file and get the values updated in runtime
     iii) use http link '\rulesmanager' to update the values
But none of these methods would be suitable for the user to update those values right. I mean, How can we give the admin privilege to the user so that he can modify using rulesmanager!
So these are my two basic queries:
     1) Can we update the values in the decision table from a WebDynpro GUI? OR
     2) Can we automatically generate a WebDynpro GUI by giving Decision table as input and the GUI as output? We can give this GUI to the user for value maintenance.
If (1) is possible, we need to do lot of work in creating different Webdynpro GUIs for maintaining the values. So what I would prefer is (2).
Could anyone please let me know how can I do (2)? If (2) is not possible, then please tell me how to proceed with (1)?
Expecting your earliest reply...Thanks a million in advance...
Warm Regards
Anand Uthaman

Dear Oliver,
Thanks for your quick reply. As you said, rules manager is the best way to let the user interact with the rules (we just need to maintain the privileges).
But consider this scenario in BRM. If the data that we need to maintain in the BRM decision tables are system generated then how is it possible to maintain the data? Is there any way to access and update the decision tables from the WD GUI?
Let me give you another scenario. If we need to create a rule to get a property of a particular product and if there are so many products (say 25,000 - 50,000) then should we maintain these many records in the decision table? It would be difficult to maintain this rule right. Is there a better way to do this? Or is it that the oracle DB is a better way to handle these kind of scenarios?
Expecting your earliest reply. Thanks a lot in advance for your time.
Thanks 'n Best Regards

Modify an database table

hi ,
can we use modify command in database table .(not update command)
if yes means how to use it . give syntax ..
i want to modify the database table based on internal table i.e
how to do this .
Regards,
kumar

Hello Kumar,
Always use MODIFY command rather than using INSERT or UPDATE.
When u r using MODIFY command and u can able to update a record and insert a record inside the table.
MODIFY - Change a database table
Variants:
1. MODIFY dbtab. or
MODIFY *dbtab. or
MODIFY (dbtabname) ... ..
2. MODIFY dbtab FROM TABLE itab. or
MODIFY (dbtabname) FROM TABLE itab.
3. MODIFY dbtab VERSION vers. or
MODIFY *dbtab VERSION vers.
Effect
Inserts new lines or updates existing lines in a database table (s. relational database). If a line with the specified primary key already exists, an UPDATE is executed. Otherwise, an INSERT is performed. You can specify the name of the database table either in the program itself in the form MODIFY dbtab ... or at runtime as the contents of the field dbtabname in the form MODIFY (dbtabname) ... . In both cases, the database table must be defined in the ABAP Dictionary. Normally, records are inserted or updated only in the current client. Data can only be inserted or updated using a view, if the view refers to a single table and was created in the ABAP Dictionary with the maintenance status "No restriction".
MODIFY belongs to the Open SQL command set.
When the statement has been executed, the system field SY-DBCNT contains the number of edited lines.
The return code is set as follows:
SY-SUBRC = 0:
All lines were successfully inserted or updated.
SY-SUBRC = 4:
One or more lines could not be inserted or updated.
Notes
You cannot modify a line if there is already a line in the table with identical key field values in a UNIQUE index.
Automatic definition of INSERT and UPDATE is expensive. You should therefore use MODIFY only if you cannot define the INSERT and UPDATE cases yourself in the program.
Since the MODIFY statement does not perform authority checks, you have to program them yourself.
Adding or changing lines with the MODIFY command is only completed after a database commit (see LUW) has been performed. Before the database commit has been performed, any database changes can be reversed with a database rollback (see Programming transactions).
Synchronization of simultanous accesses by several users to the same set of data cannot be guaranteed exclusively with the lock mechanism of the database system. In several cases, you are recommended to use the SAP lock mechanism.
Variant 1
MODIFY dbtab. or
MODIFY *dbtab. or
MODIFY (dbtabname) ... .
Additions:
1. ... FROM wa
2. ... CLIENT SPECIFIED
See Short forms not allowed and * work areas not allowed.
Effect
Inserts a new line or updates an existing line in a database table. If you specify the name of the database table yourself, the primary key for identifying the line to be inserted or updated and the relevant values are taken from the table work area dbtab or *dbtab (see TABLES). If you specify the name of the database table directly, the program must contain a corresponding TABLES statement. If the name of the database table is not determined until runtime, you need to use the addition ... FROM wa.
Example
Insert or change data of the customer Robinson in the current client:
TABLES SCUSTOM.
SCUSTOM-ID        = '12400177'.
SCUSTOM-NAME      = 'Robinson'.
SCUSTOM-POSTCODE = '69542'.
SCUSTOM-CITY      = 'Heidelberg'.
SCUSTOM-CUSTTYPE = 'P'.
SCUSTOM-DISCOUNT = '003'.
SCUSTOM-TELEPHONE = '06201/44889'.
MODIFY SCUSTOM.
Addition 1
... FROM wa
Effect
The values for the line to be inserted or updated are not taken from the table work area dbtab, but from the explicitly specified work area wa. When doing this, the data is read from left to right according to the structure of the table work area dbtab (see TABLES). Since the structure of wa is not taken into account, the work area wa must be at least as wide (see DATA) as the table work area dbtab and the alignment of the work area wa must correspond to the alignment of the table work area. Otherwise, a runtime error occurs.
Note
If a work area is not explicitly specified, the values for the line to be inserted or updated are also taken from the table work area dbtab if the statement is in a FORM or FUNCTION where the table work area is stored in a formal parameter or local variable of the same name.
Addition 2
... CLIENT SPECIFIED
Effect
Switches off automatic client handling. This allows you to edit data across all clients even when dealing with client-specific tables. The client field is treated like a normal table field that can be programmed to accept values in the table work area dbtab or *dbtab where the line to be edited occurs.
The addition CLIENT SPECIFIED must be specified immediately after the name of the database table.
Variant 2
MODIFY dbtab FROM TABLE itab.or MODIFY (dbtabname) FROM TABLE itab.
Addition:
... CLIENT SPECIFIED
Effect
Mass modify: Inserts new lines or updates existing lines of a database table. The primary keys for identifying the lines to be inserted or updated and the relevant values are taken from the internal table itab. The lines of the internal table itab must satisfy the same conditions as the work area wa in addition 1 to variant 1.
Note
If the internal table itab is empty, SY-SUBRC and SY-DBCNT are set to 0.
Addition
... CLIENT SPECIFIED
Effect
As for variant 1.
Variant 3
MODIFY dbtab VERSION vers. or MODIFY *dbtab VERSION vers.
This variant is not allowed in an ABAP Objects context. See VERSION addition not allowed.
Note
This variant is obsolete.
Effect
Inserts a new line or updates an existing line in a database table, the name of which is taken from the field vers at runtime. If no line exists with the specified primary key, an INSERT is executed. Otherwise, an UPDATE is performed. The database table must be defined in the ABAP/4 Dictionary and its name must conform to the naming conventions for R/2 ATAB tables. These stipulate that the name must begin with 'T' and may contain up to four further characters. The field vers must contain the table name without the leading 'T'. Only lines in the current client are inserted or updated. The line to be inserted is taken from the statically specified table work area dbtab or *dbtab.
SY-SUBRC is set to 0 if the line is successfully inserted or updated. SY-SUBRC <> 0 is not possible since any other result causes a runtime error.

Decision Tables in HANA

Hi All,
I have few questions on Decision Tables (DT).
1. Is there any way to provide modeling rights only on particular DTs to a User? I have few decision tables which will be updated with new data every month by a business user and I would like to provide access to only those DTs to him. As he will upload the data in Production db, I don't want to risk on the other models by providing Modeler rights.
2. Does maintaining (Uploading DT data from spreadsheets, Validating and Activating) DT require admin rights on the system? My client installed HANA Version 1.0.68 and he does not have admin rights on his machine. When he tried to validate a DT the validation is not throwing any errors if there is a overlapping condition. He got temporary admin rights and re-validated the same DT and this time it throw the error. What folder does one should have admin rights on in order to validate and activate DTs?
3. Is there a way to export DT from one server to other (ex: from Dev to Prod)? I dont see an option in 1.0.61 version.
I really appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Bharath

Dear Marcus,
The tables and views maintained from ABAP Data Dictionary(SE11) gets created in the SAP<SID> Schema in the underlying HANA DB.
Nevertheless the opposite is not true, i.e when you create a DB artefact in HANA directly in HANA Studio it is not visible as a ABAP DDIC object and hence you cannot consume it in your ABAP code using Open SQL. If you need to consume them you need to use the HANA native artefacts. (I would really do a double check before doing so to verify if this is needed at all)
And this has been the case with any database which lies underneath the ABAP Application Server.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

   String rulesetName = "RS_example";
   IRuleset ruleset = project.getRuleset(rulesetName);
   String decisiontableName = "DT_Id_Name";
   IDecisionTable dt = ruleset.getDecisionTable(decisiontableName);
   IDecisionTableQuery dte = dt.createQuery();
   dte.setConditionValue("ID", "xyz");
   String val = dte.getActionValue("Name");
   wdControllerAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("dt value:"+val);
but getting val always null.
Please help me how to get proper action value.

BRFPlus Decision Table Exclude Problem

Hi Experts,
I got a problem by using BRFPlus NW 701. I modeled a decision table. In this decision table I defined a column for condition check. The condition is an "exclude" condition, something like exclude (01;02;03), which means the condition will be returned as true when the input not 01 and not 02 and not 03. I used the standard way to model this condition directly in decision table cell using:
Unless TYPE
equals 01
or equals 02
or equals 03
When I then tried to test the rule using Simulation, I got this condition always returned as "FALSE", independent on which value I input.
Did anyone face the same problem? Thank for help!
Regards
Di

It seems to be an issue in BRFPlus Simulator, since I get the right result in ABAP program runtime, which calls the rule via static API...

BRM Decision table to populate dropdowns

Hi Experts,
My requirement is as below:
I have more around 100 WebDynpro screens (100 scenarios). The user first selects the Scenario and u2018Siteu2019 he belongs to from the dropdown. In each screen there are 5 to 6 dropdowns fields. The value of each drop down should be populated depending on the selected Scenario and Site. The dropdown can have max of 5 to 8 values.
I am planning to do this in BRM decision table. The horizontal condition would be the field names(dropdown field name). Vertical condition would be u2018Scenario Idu2019 and u2018Site Idu2019. The decision table has values in the format u2018value1,value2,value3,value4,value5u2019.(coma separated)
For example, field1 for u2018Scenario1u2019 and u2018Site1u2019 has the dropdown value u2018value1,value5u2019 .
field1 for u2018Scenario2u2019 and u2018Site1u2019 has the dropdown value u2018value4,value7u2019
Is the above way to populate the dropdown values from the decision table a good approach? Or is there any better approach to do this using BRM?
In the above way it is easier to add or remove a value from the dropdown maintained in decision table.
Please suggest.
Thanks,
Shilpa.

Hi,
thank you for your answer - I'm aware of this approach but I'd fell embarrassed to propose it to the client ;/
I wonder why we don't have the same functionality as with BRFPlus
anyway I guess we need to wait for some more enhancements
thank you anyway,
