Multiple PO's process

HI GUrus,
Can anyone please throw some light on this scneario on how we can streamline this a little bit.
Current process: we do all third party/subcontracting combination tpye of purchases. we get a sales order from our customer for Material A. Material A is based of material B and material C. So we create a third party PO for material A against a vendor1 with delivery address to customer. Now how does the vendor1 get material B and C, we create another two PO's separately each against Vendor2 and vendor3 for material B and C respectively. Was there a better way of doing this?
Also some times our buyers want to inform the vendor2 and vendor3 much well in advance so that they can produce the materail and ship to vendor1 so that vendor1 can finish the material A in time and ship to customer. So what happens is when our sales directors and customer service folks interact with customers and find out informally that we are going to get sales orders from them, our buyers immeditaely create PO for material A and when the true sales order arrives, they cancel the existing PO and create a PO based off of sales order.
OI'm thinking there must be better ways of doing htese things..
can anyone throw some light
thanks
Ravi

Have you investigated using a third party subcontracting (or direct subcontracting as it is called) in SAP. The process flow is like this:
1) Sales order from customer A
2) PR from SO, Subcontracting PO from the PR to vendor 1
3) PRs from Subcontracting PO for components, convert to POs to vendor 2 and 3
4) GR of components, components transferred to vendor 1 for processing
5) vendor 1 sends goods directly to customer A.
Check out this docu, hope it helps simplifying your process:

Use ABAP code in "Decision Between Multiple Alernativesu201D in process chain

Hi, does anybody know if it is possible to include ABAP code in formula definition when using u201CDecision Between Multiple Alernativesu201D in process chain.
I wanted to read a specific parameter from one table in order to choose the next step in the process chain.
If it is not possible, do you any workaround?
Best regards,
João Arvanas

Hey. You could create your own custom formula which you would code. Then that formula is reuseable in the formula builder. That should get you where you need to be.
Here is a document on how to implement the custom formulas:

Aborting multiple hanging BPEL processes in bulk

Hi,
Is tehre a way to stop multiple hanging BPEL process in one shot, without shutting down the server..
I went thro' the following url but dunno if i can use any command for this..

Hi,
i guess i din't frame the question correctly.. I want to abort few open instances of various BPEL processes, not retire or turn off the BPEL processes.. apologies for making the question ambigous.. I went thro' the the link u had specified and found that, it was about retiring/turning off/undeploying multiple BPEL processes. I actually want to abort the running instances of BPEL processes..

Multiple oracle exe process

Hi,
I am using 10.2.0.1.0, 64 bit version on windows.
In our schema if we execute one query multiple oracle exe process are created for same query. Nearly 20 process are created. I am seeing this result on toad session browser.
Could any one tell me why these much of process are creating.
Thanks,

Looks like parallel query.

Acrobat X intermittently won't launch, multiple Acrobat.exe processes hanging in task manager

Apologies if this is in the wrong community area - I was unsure where it belongs.
This is an intermittent issue, but does happen several times a day.
Regardless of what method is used to launch Acrobat (double-clicking a PDF, clicking the shortcut in the taskbar, selecting Acrobat from the start menu), often the application won't launch. Upon investigation, task manager shows multiple instances of Acrobat.exe, although the application is not running (see the image below). Ending all Acrobat.exe processes does allow Acrobat to launch.
Any thoughts as to what might be causing this, as well as a more permanent fix? The workaround of constantly ending multiple processes is becoming cumbersome.
We are running Acrobat X Pro in Windows 7. I also have several CC 2014 apps installed (as well as a couple of earlier versions required for plugin functionality).

This happens all the time in my company with several installs of Acrobat.
The only way to fix this for us is to end each process in Task Manager as you have pointed out.
It is very time consuming in our workflow as we each operator deals with hundreds of PDFs daily, and has to do this End Process procedure several times a day.
We have done several tests and nothing seems to stop this from happening.

allowing user to create multiple document for same leave
Could you let me how to stop user to creating multiple
forms.

There are many ways to achieve this.
1. Use the BADI that you shown in the screenshot.
2. Set process frequency.

Assigning Multiple tasks in process dynamically

Hello,
Please help me out in solving following problem
Scenario:
Step 1: Query the DB get all the Products (Multiple rows).
Step 2: For each Product merge the product information to a template, rendering it as PDF and Assigning it to a user(Assign Task Activity)
With out waiting for the user action i would like to repeat step 2 so that i can assign all product information as different task dynamically
Can any one please help meto achieve this?(PFA Process Design diagram)
Thanks in advance
Regards
Rao

This is more tricky than it sounds.
You could use a gateway with one branch that goes to the User step and another branch that goes straight to the end of the gateway and set the gateway to No Wait.
Then, from the end of the gateway object loop back to the start of the gateway so that it assigns it to the next person.
In the next version of LiveCycle, you should be able to use the Mutli User Task operation to assign a task to multiple users in parallel.

Multiple POST-MAPPING Processes Code Generation BUG

We are testing OWB 10gR2, and we were very happy to see that there is option to include more than one postmapping operator.
The idea is to create mapping with two post-mapping operators and that:
- one procedure is executed in case of 'Post-Mapping Process Run Condition' = ON ERROR
- and other procedure in case of 'Post-Mapping Process Run Condition' = ON SUCCESS.
But, after implementation of this case, we were dissapointed. We discover that neither procedure is executed.. ?!?!
After analyzing generated code in 'finalize' method there is code like this:
IF NOT get_abort THEN
IF get_abort THEN
BEGIN
As you can see this condition will never bee true ?!?
Doe's anyone have same problem?

1) If you have somehow got multiple post-mappings working, I would consider that to be buggy behaviour that you cannot depend on for future releases or upgrades. As such, building a solution that depends on this has risk.
2) You could always build a user-defined custom transformation that takes a list of tables to truncate and does so. Something like (untested, uncompiled, seat-of-the-pants written right here example to get you started):
create or replace procedure trunc_tables(tablist varchar2)
is
local_tablist varchar2(2000) := tablist;
this_Table varchar2(30);
nextindex number := 1;
begin
nextindex := instr(local_tablist,',');
while nextindex != 0 loop
this_table := substr(local_tablist,1,nextindex-1);
execute immediate 'truncate table '||this_Table;
local_tablist := substr(local_tablist,nextindex+1);
nextindex := instr(local_tablist,',');
end loop;
-- if no trailing semicolon there is still one table left
if length(local_tablist) > 0 then
execute immediate 'truncate table '||local_tablist;
end if;
end;
You could then reference this in your post-mapping procedure with a call to trunc_Tables('table1,table2,table3'), and could re-use this code across all mapping that need it.
Of course, if you have a lot of mapping-specific stuff to do then you might need to build custom transformations for each mapping that need to do different things as part of their post-process.

Multiple instances' sapstartsrv processes

Hello,
After restarting SAP I regularly have multiple sapstartsrv for a single instance running:
# ps -ef | grep -i /usr/sap/SID/DVEBMGS00/exe/sapstartsrv | grep -v grep
sidadm 12959 1 0 Jun10 ? 00:02:10 /usr/sap/SID/DVEBMGS00/exe/sapstartsrv pf=/usr/sap/SID/SYS/profile/START_DVEBMGS00_host -D
sidadm 39648 1 0 Jun21 ? 00:00:05 /usr/sap/SID/DVEBMGS00/exe/sapstartsrv pf=/usr/sap/SID/SYS/profile/START_DVEBMGS00_host -D
1. Is it a bug or a classical behaviour?
2. What are the consequences of having these duplicated processes?
Basically should I care about it?
Thanks in advance for your answer.

Dear Benoît Schmid,
This is not correctly performed stopsap script. I think you should use the following command after the stopsap:
kill -9 | <sid>adm
cleanipc 00 remove
if you have central services instance
cleanipc <number CS> remove
ipcs | grep <sid>adm
if any exist, remove it use ipcrm command.
With best regards,

OPMN Controlling Multiple Oracle Home Processes

OK,
Have OC4J,HTTP in a 10.1.3 Oracle Home.
Have Webcache in a 10.1.2 Oracle Home.
GOAL: opmnctl <start|stop> controls all processes (OC4J, HTTP Server, 10.1.2 Webcache).
Is it possible to have 10.1.3 OPMN control the webcache process in the 10.1.2 Oracle Home? Would this be implemented via OPMN's custom process fuctionality or some ONS/OPMN discovery mechanism?
Thanks,
KB

Interesting how OPMN claims to support Grid computing but it can't (in a supported manner) support processes in multiple OHs ON THE SAME BOX! I guess I'll build a shell script.
And yes, opmnctl is working in both the OHs.

Decision Between Multiple Alternatives in Process Chain

Hello all!
I wanted to use the process type "Decision Between Multiple Alternatives" in a process chain, so than i can choose wich DTPs will be executed. I was wondering to use the Function "PREDECESSOR_PARAMETER (<I_FIELDNAME>, <I_LOW_OR_HIGH>, <I_NUMBER_OF_VALUE>)" to get a parameter from an ABAP program step, but i do not know which I_FIELDNAME parameter should i use to receive the parameter. Did anyone use this logic or something similar? Do you think there are better ways of doing this?
Thanks in advance and Best regards,
Nuno

Is Lite Optimise essential during multiple custom DM processing in a single link

Hi All ,
I am processing data in revenue application using 7/8 custom data manager packages in a single link. When I am processing JAN 2014 ACtual category data , account A & B successfully get copied to cost application. But for the month of FEB 2014 ACTUAL category, 'A' account get inserted properly and 'B' get inserted only for rptcurrency 'INR' not for 'LC'.
when I checked my data in revenue appl , for account 'B' for both the categories inr / lc . data is properly available on desired version.
When I copy my patch from custom script to test script and execute in revenue application, i got the data for ''B' account for both the currencies. Why system / script is not working for FEb 2014.
Following is my code :
*DESTINATION_APP = COST
*SKIP_DIM = BFL_CUSTOMER
//*SKIP_DIM = SEGMENT_NEW
*XDIM_MEMBERSET BFL_ACCOUNT = 900003
*XDIM_MEMBERSET BFL_CATEGORY = MASTER
*XDIM_MEMBERSET BFL_LINE = NONE
*XDIM_MEMBERSET BFL_PRODUCT = <ALL>
*XDIM_MEMBERSET BFL_DIST_CHANNEL = NONE
*XDIM_MEMBERSET TIME = %TIME_SET%
*WHEN BFL_ACCOUNT
*IS 900003
*REC(FACTOR = -1,BFL_ACCOUNT = "NTWTCOST")
*ENDWHEN
*COMMIT
In my REvenue appl link , there are 8 custom data manager packages as below :
1] Copy version 0 data to version 1 for actual data
2] copy master data from version 0 to ver 1.
3] process data before currency conversion.
4] currency conversion for master rate.
5] currency conversion for actual rate.
6] process data after curr conversion.
7] copy data from revenue to cost appl.
8] copy data from revenue to planning appl.
Is lite optimise essential before copying processed data from revenue application to cost appl in a single link ?
Best Regards,
Milind ..

Hi Vadim,
I am not merging my all packages into a single one only because of ease of maintenance and easy to debug.
I am only worried about the scirpt , When I copy to test script , it wroks perfectly. but not in entire one.
Now , I am incorporating the lite_optimise twice in existing link after step no.5 and 8. Lets check the result.
Regards,
Milind.

Having multiple Node manger process in a single host machine.

I am using weblogic server(portal)10.2.
I am running the Node Manager to start the admin server.I have installed Java based Node manager in the host machine .Created a unix id ND1 and started the Node Manager utiliy with this id.
I keep on creating domain for my new applicaitons and add this ND1 in each new domain group,so that ND1 will access the new domain's admin folder.
Now when I add this ND1 in more than 16 domain groups,I got trouble in accessing the domain folder.In unix OS there is group membership limitation where a unix id cannot be in more than 16 groups.
Anyone came acroos this issue?
Possible options.
1) Can we have multiple node manager ids(ND1,ND2,ND3..etc) for a single Node manager utility in single host?
2) While starting the server,will node manager look only the nm_password.properties file in domain folder?

You can boot multiple Node Managers if you change the NodeManager home. To do that, create a directory for each NodeManager and copy the startNodeManager script to it. Then edit the NODEMGR_HOME, LISTEN_ADDRESS, and LISTEN_PORT

PS CS5 Std - Multiple Photoshop.exe Processes Seen Running

Interesting. On a couple of occasions I have spotted more than one Photoshop.exe process running in Task Manager. It was a curiosity and I ignored it, thinking perhaps Adobe was doing something special to split up the work.
Today, when updating to Camera Raw 6.1, I saw the message that follows:
Sure enough, even though I had closed the Photoshop application I started the update from, there was a Photoshop.exe *32 running. Killing that process yielded success with the update, but given that I have read several accounts where people have said they've seen the above error as well, I wonder whether there's a systemic problem with PS CS5.
I have Photoshop CS5 on Windows 7 x64 Ultimate. My system is stable otherwise, clean of malware and well maintained.
I realize the Windows environment is one in which anything can and does happen, and believe me I will be checking the health of my system in every way I can, but given that I carefully maintain this system I ask that you please don't discount this problem as a one-off on my particular computer because of something specific I have that's gone wrong.
Those of you running an x64 OS, please start your Task Manager, Processes tab. Do you see more than one Photoshop.exe (or a Photoshop.exe process when you're not running it).
-Noel

No, whatever variant (32 bit or 64 bit) you started stays running. Normally an attempt to start either one afresh brings the currently running variant to the top. For a very brief period both are running, but I assume the second one up discovers that the first one is running and just activates it.
I have just reproduced the problem, by the way... After a fair bit of editing I was running the Genuine Fractals 6.04 plugin and the plugin trapped out. Now there is an "orphan" Photoshop.exe *32 process just sitting there, with no window... It's not actively using any cpu time.
I can't expect Adobe to be concerned about faults arising from 3rd party plugins trapping out, but I'm sure I've seen this issue without that happening. I will report back if I see it again.

Thanks,
Mike.

Hi,
Thanks for the Inputs and the SAP Notes.
I am trying to broadcast the Reports from the the Bex Analyer and getting this ock error and not the workbooks.
I am also trying to Broadcast the Workbooks also, but could not find the options to Broadcast them. we are in SAP -BW3.5 SP 12, Is it possible to broadcast the workbooks in this Patch level..or do we need to upgrade to achieve this.If so...can any one provide me the proceedure to Broadcast the Workbooks.
