Need Explanation about code ABAP

Hi,
what does mean this code :
*if not SOURCE_ENTETE-MONAT is initial.
*BBKPF-MONAT = SOURCE_ENTETE-MONAT.  
*endif.                                
i find it in LSMW (step number 5)
what does mean exactly initial
i want to integrate some FI document
please help.
Regards

Hi,
initial means NOTHING, NULL, <no value>, space, 0 etc depending on the field type.
In your code, it means that if there something in MONAT (if a month is provided), then BKPF (FI document header month) will get the value from the SOURCE_ENTETE-MONAT month field.
BUT
This code is commented out, so it will not be executed.
Regards,
George

  • Need explanation about adobe products for developers

    I need explanation about what products I need to use for developing dynamic adobe PDF forms..
    Currently I use only LiveCycle Designer ,but I in previous posts I found that I need to use additional products as Acrobat or Extension to designer.
    My question is if I need to devlop dynamic PDF form what exactly products I need that will be cover all developing issues?

    Hi,
    Covering all developer/developing issues is very broad.
    LC Designer is part of the LiveCycle suite. Which components you need from the suite will depend on your environment, your workflow, and how you want to process the data.
    More information here: http://www.adobe.com/products/livecycle/
    If you wanted to create forms and use Reader to interact with the form, then the minimum specification would be:
    LC Designer
    Adobe Reader
    However there would be restrictions in the functionality (eg you could not save the form in Reader as it would not be Reader enabled).
    If you want to Reader enabled the form in Acrobat Standard v9 or Acrobat Pro v8, then you will need Acrobat as well. This will unlock some of the features.
    If you want users with Reader to have full access to all features (as if the form was opened in Acrobat) then you will also need LC Reader Extensions ES2. You would use this to Reader enable the form before you deploy it.
    See summary here:
    Other components in the LC suite provide other functionality such as digital signatures, rights management, etc. You should talk directly with the Adobe sales rep in your geographical location.
    Good luck,

  • Need info about c_taw12 abap certification exam

    Hi All,

    Regards,
    Kannan

    <b>http://www.sap.com/asia/services/education/centres/index.epx</b>
    You can contact the education center nearest to ur location, they would guide you how to apply.
    They generally ask for 1 year working expereince in the company from which u r applying, but its not mandatory. If u r company sponsred, then no such pre-requisites.
    If u have 3 years exp in ABAP then clearing the certification wont be that tough, just follow the 5 books that SAP provides. The certification tests the conceptual knowledge of the candidate.

  • Need explanation about Oracle documentation (DBMS_LOB.LOADCLOBFROMFILE)

    Hello World,
    I try to understand Oracle documentation about DBMS_LOB.LOADCLOBFROMFILE function.
    I am not shure the explanation is written in a very good english,
    but i can't understand a word !!!
    Is anybody could explain me in more simple sentences ??
    DBMS_LOB.LOADCLOBFROMFILE (
    dest_lob IN OUT NOCOPY BLOB,
    src_bfile IN BFILE,
    amount IN INTEGER,
    dest_offset IN OUT INTEGER,
    src_offset IN OUT INTEGER,
    src_csid IN NUMBER,
    lang_context IN OUT INTEGER,
    warning OUT INTEGER);
    Oracle documentation explanation :
    src_csid Character set id of the source (BFILE) file.
    lang_context (IN) Language context, such as shift status, for the current
    load. (OUT) The language context at the time when the
    current load stopped, and what the next load should be using if
    continuing loading from the same source. This information is
    returned to the user so that they can use it for the continuous
    load without losing or misinterpreting any source data. For the
    very first load or if do not care, simply use the default 0. The
    details of this language context is hidden from the user. One
    does not need to know what it is or what’s in it in order to
    make the call
    warning (OUT) Warning message. This indicates something abnormal
    happened during the loading. It may or may not be caused by the
    user’s mistake. The loading is completed as required, and it’s up to the
    user to check the warning message. Currently, the only possible
    warning is the inconvertible character. This happens when the
    character in the source cannot be properly converted to a character in
    destination, and the default replacement character (e.g., ’?’) is used in
    place. The message is defined as warn_inconvertable_char in
    DBMSLOB.

    I am not kidding. I posted the link but I did not check if it were the same source. Really I do not have time to realize it.
    I think you can get a fast answer in SQL & PL/SQL forum.
    Good Luck!

    Hi Balaji.
    an iView can display (or even not display anything at all - if it hides itself, that's the HIDEMODE) different things or in different states. If it should not be displayed at all, see above. The "normal" content is displayed within the CONTENT mode. If you want to edit the profile of the component (i.e. personalize the iView), this is done within the EDIT mode. If an iView is previewed from within the PCD, this is done within the PREVIEW mode (you may differentiate this mode from the CONTENT mode, as maybe you don't want some things to happen if the iView is previewed without it's page context etc).
    Also check out the APIDoc: https://media.sdn.sap.com/javadocs/NW04/SPS15/ep/com/sapportals/portal/prt/pom/NodeMode.html
    ... as well as some examples, here how the to hide an iView: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/b7/60b54066ea8531e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm or how to check the called mode in a test scenario: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/4d/a7b7424ddcda11e10000000a155106/frameset.htm

  • Need explanation about a Clearing Document

    Hi,
    in Tcode FBL3N i found this :
    Doc N° 1 : -3000 USD  --> clearing doc : Doc N° 3
    Doc N° 2 : 2000 USD   --> clearing doc : Doc N° 3
    Doc N° 3 : 1000 USD   --> clearing doc : Doc N° 3
    Balance :        0
    this clearing was made with Tcode F-03
    i dont understand this ! is it possible to have a doc as part of clearing and in the same time is a clearing doc ??! (Tcode : F-03)
    When i display the doc N° 3 with Tcode FB03, i find 2 items in, the first is cleared (the above item), the other still appeared as an open item.
    please any exlpanation ?
    Regards

    Hi Jehade,
    The first 2 documents would have been cleared through F-03 by charging off the difference to another account manually.
    From F-03, you can clear two documents of different amounts by charging the difference to another account. Thus the 3rd document will be the clearing document for all the 3 documents.

  • I need explanation about RESTORE DATABASE PREVIEW SUMMARY;

    Recovery must be done beyond SCN 1726503 to clear data files fuzziness

    What does it mean "recovery start SCN is 1487308" and "Recovery must be done beyond SCN 1726503..." ?
    I would like to restore/recover untill a SCN... but I don't understand if it means I must set a SCN between 1487308 and 1726503, or 1726503 is simply a starting SCN ...

    Hi All,
             I need information about t-code *SCAT.*
             I dont know any thing about this transaction. I need information about how to use. What for we will use. Basis people how they can use this SCAT t-code.
             Try to help me out in solving this issue.
    Regards,
    Sateesh J

    SCAT is used to upload the data with the transaction.The use of CATT is for bulk uploading of data. Although CATT is primarily a testing tool, it can be used for the mass upload of data. The way CATT works is like a real user actually inputting on the SAP screen.
    The over-all procedure to upload data using CATT is as follows:
    · Creation of the CATT test case & recording the sample data input.
    · Download of the source file template.
    · Modification of the source file.
    · Upload of the data from the source file.

    Hi,
    I need information about release codes.In which Transcation we will get it.
    Please give the information ASAP.
    Regards,
    Chow.

    Hi Naidu,
    Release code is a two-character identifier with which a person responsible for processing a document can release/ approve an item of a purchase requisition, a complete purchase requisition, or a complete external purchasing document, or cancel a release.
    If a link to SAP Business Workflow has been defined for the release code, the person can refuse to effect release (withhold approval), thus rejecting the item or document.
    You can find the relelase codes Using the following path :
        Go to Transaction : SPRO and click on SAP Reference IMG and follow the menu :
               -> Material Management ->Purchasing->Purchase Requisition->Release Procedure ->Procedure with classification -> Setup procedure with classification
