Needed Clarification on Modeling Scenario's?

Hello Experts,
 Let me begin by thanking all of you guys who take their valuable time to help the people those who ask through this great network. It is certainly an amazing place for developers. I am posting my first question here about a modeling scenario.
If you have a reporting requirement that is needed to be satisfied by genarating it in BW:
 1) Lets say the application area FI_AR, how would you identify the the info objects /KF and match those with standard AR extractor?
 2) How would you determine the gap between the standard bct and the reporting definition? I am asking what do you do in the bw and r/3 side to finalize the gap?
 3) If anyone describes the whole process that will answer both questions above or a supplemental document would help.
 4) If you are configuring a new system what objects, cubes that needs to be installed from the BCT(Whats the Ground Rule) e.g. bw stat. cubes??
Thank you in advance. BTW, Points will be awarded for the answer.

Hi,
I can suggest u 1st go through SAP provided documentation in help.sap.com site from where you will get all the info regarding FI_AR.
The information includes like:
1. Relevant info in R/3 (All master/Transactional Datasource)
2. Relevant info in BW ( All cubes/ODS, query etc...)
3. By going throuh this u can get a idea what are the SAP provided standard objects and what information are already exists. if u find something missing then u can think from where u can get the data and design as per u r requirement.
4. One important thing keep in mind that as per the reporting requirement u will have to design the whole thing so give emphasis on collecting as much as detail about reporting requirements before going to design the whole thing it will help u from doing less rework in future.
Thanks,
Debasish

Partial Payment- need clarification on 2 scenarios

Hello SAP Gurus',
I need some help. If I check the Partial Payment in the Control Parameters node in Bank transactions, what does it mean? I thought it meant that if a payment came in and referenced that invoice, it would clear that invoice leaving residual on account where applicable.
Through Lockbox postprocessing via FLB2, if the user decides to use the partial payment tab and leaves a difference there, it would leave the invoice open and a new line item would be created in open items indicating and overpayment or shortage. Is this correct.
Many thanks!
POINTS GUARANTEED

Thanks Murali-
Same true through Lockbox postprocessing? If the user selects Partial Payment tab, the invoice will remain open, if the user selects the residual tab, the invoice will clear?
Also, I have another problem that noone has helped me with. Can you answer this one too? I have a problem. When using FLB1, if I have an item that does not belong in the subledger but needs to be booked to a general ledger, I double click on the unprocessed item, change the account type from D for customers to S for general ledger and input my g/l in the account field, I get an error message that says:
Payment advice 010013149700014 does not exist for account * 1134.
What does this mean? I am currently testing and although I am able to assign a customer to this payment advice, it doesn't work for g/l. Any thoughts?

Need a model Scenario

HI Pals,
I was going thru the form and i got many scenarios like IDoc to File, ABAP Proxy to File, File to JDBC, File to ABAP Proxy..
Could you get me one model scenario with screenshots for the Scenario explained below.
The Scenario is that the invoice is created and when you give the order number from a third party system we have to get the details of the invoice from the R/3 system.The third party system and the R/3 system is interfaced by XI.
Regards
A.K.

Hi Anil,
The similar kind of scenario can be found in the below link with the required screen shots..
/people/arpit.seth/blog/2005/06/27/rfc-scenario-using-bpm--starter-kit
Here, the BAPI used is BAPI_COMPANY_GETDETAIL..
You may just need to change the BAPI for your scenario.. The rest sequence of steps will be the same...
Hope this helps..

Need clarification on issue with tablespaces

Hi All,
I needed clarification on this issue with tablespaces.I am following a guideline which says "Presently,The general rule of thumb is to concentrate on tablespaces that are 90% or greater used and have less than 2 GB of free space"
My Scenario:-Now i have tablesace which is 97.23 % and the free space is 10 gb.Please advise me that whats the best next step I can take in this respect?
I am very new to this and just following the guideline,so can you all please explain me some details about this.
Thanks

Well, the guideline says "*and* have less than 2 GB of free space"
Since that tablespace as 10GB of free space, the guideline says that you do not need to concentrate on it. Eh ?
I would be careful with guidelines that are hard-coded in this manner. You need to know the context in which the guideline was set.
Assuming that your database/application doesn't grow suddenly by 1GB or larger (or create temporary segments / objects of 1GB or larger), the "2 GB of free space" might make sense. Then, again, it depends on the extent allocation type. What size are extents getting allocated.
You should check with your organisation's senior DBAs on what happens if you don't concentrate on a tablespace because it is outside the guidelines !

BPM, Workflow and Netweaver - Need Clarification

Hi Guru,
I am new to workflow, BPM and Netweaver. I have several questions about those concepts.
1. What is/are the different between workflow and webflow. Which scenario should take workflow into consideration? Which scenario webflow can be applied to?
2. What is/are the different between workflow and BPM. If I am going to implement workflow in a company, do I need to implement business workflow as well as BPM?
3. I need clarification on Netweaver platform and concept.
4. What is/are the different between workflow in R/3 and workflow under Netweaver?
5. If I am going to implement workflow integrated with R/3 and Outlook email, do I need to buy new wrokflow for Netweaver and Netweaver platform or alternatively, I can use business workflow module under R/3 system?
Sorry for many questions asked. I am new to those products. I am now working on software selection for workflow technology. My company is going to implement new workflow to client. Thank you very much.
Cheers,

Please ask only one (or closely related) questions per thread. This makes it a lot easier to get a good structure in the database of previously answered questions. While we are on the subject of previously answered questions, I think you should have a look at them....
My suggestion is therefore:
1. Close this thread
2. Read the Frequently Answered Questions. Before you ask (here are many workflow answers)
3. Search the forum.
4. Create new threads if you have questions afterwards.

Typical modeling scenario

Experts,
I am facing very typical modeling scenario which is mentioned below, in which result for the same data needs to be change based on user input.
Cube data is:
1st Row:
Subscriber   =   S1
Order No.   =   1001
Valid from   =   01-Sep-2009
Valid to    =   31-Dec-2009
Renewal Flag   =   u2018 u2018
Renewal Order   = u2018 u2018
Count = 1
2nd Row:
Subscriber   =   S1
Order No.   =   1002
Valid from   =   01-Jan-2010
Valid to    =   31-May-2010
Renewal Flag   =   u2018Xu2018
Renewal Order   = u20181001u2018
Count = 1
Second row is the renewal order after 1st subscription expiry date.
Now in the report user wants to know lost subscriber based on period he enters for e.g.
User can enter date range/Months/Years, so if he executes report for Year 2009,
Number of lost subscriber = 1. (based on 1st row.)
But if user executes report for year 2009 and 2010 out put should be,
Year                       2009 2010
Lost subscriber         0        1
Because he got renewed immediately hence not considered as lost.
Consider the data in million and user can execute report for about 4 Yrs together. And I can not store the number of Lost in cube at all because same row has two different answeres for two inputs.
Currently I have fixed it using Virtual cube, but I am afraid of performance.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Need Clarification On Internal tables in Start Routine

Hi,
I have intenal table some IT_A which deletes the requests which are populated in to it.
Now I need to populate requests into IT_A from another internal table like IT_B which are of different structure.
I have three fields in common in both internal tables like RNR,Timestamp n SID with different field names
I Need Clarification that if i move the contents of the three fields to IT_A from IT_B by spcifying these three fields.Will the internal table IT_A deletes the Requests?
Thanks,
Sriram.

Hi Sriram,
As mentioned IT_A deleted the request loaded into it.
if you move the contents of the three fields to IT_A from IT_B by spcifying the three fields after the deletion step for internal table IT_A takes place then it wont get deleted.
But it would be deleted if the the contents are moved before the deletion step takes place

mahesh

Need clarification on Bigfile Tablespaces

In the following Oracle Documentation Lirbary PDF,
    Oracle® Database
    Concepts
    10g Release 2 (10.2)
    B14220-02
    October 2005
section
    Overview of Tablespaces
    Bigfile Tablespaces (page: 3-5)
it says,
    Benefits of Bigfile Tablespaces
    * Bigfile tablespaces can significantly increase the storage capacity of an Oracle database. Smallfile tablespaces can contain up to 1024 files, but bigfile tablespaces contain only one file that can be 1024 times larger than a smallfile tablespace. The total tablespace capacity is the same for smallfile tablespaces and bigfile tablespaces. However, because there is a limit of 64K database for each database, a database can contain 1024 times more bigfile tablespaces than smallfile tablespaces, so bigfile tablespaces increase the total database capacity by 3 orders of magnitude. In other words, 8 exabytes is the maximum size of the Oracle database when bigfile tablespaces are used with the maximum block size (32k).
I need clarification on how to arrive at 8 exabytes ?
1024 x 32k x 64,000 ??
According to the exerpt above, there's no mention of maximum number of Operating System blocks per extent. Unless this was assumed knowledge ... how do I get 8 exabytes ?
And if "a database can contain 1024 times more bigfile tablespaces than smallfile tablespaces", then what's the upper limit on smallfile tablespaces ? -- was this sentence referring to the number of datafiles per smallfile tablespace ? ...
O_o
Thanks !

Hi,
According to [url http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14237/limits002.htm#i287915]Physical Database Limits page, a bigfile tablespace contains only one datafile or tempfile, which can contain up to approximately 4 billion ( 232 ) blocks. The maximum size of the single datafile or tempfile is 128 terabytes (TB) for a tablespace with 32K blocks and 32TB for a tablespace with 8K blocks. In resume, A bigfile tablespace is a tablespace containing a single datafile that can be as large as 128 terabytes (TB), depending on the block size of the tablespace. In conjunction with setting the initialization parameter DB_FILES to the maximum value of 65,635 the total size of the database can be more than 8 exabytes (EB)
>>how do I get 8 exabytes ?
You can calculate the maximum amount of space (M) in a single Oracle database as the maximum number of datafiles (D) multiplied by the maximum number of blocks per datafile (F) multiplied by the tablespace block size (B):
M = D * F * B. Therefore, the maximum database size, given the maximum block size and the maximum number of datafiles, is:
65,535 datafiles * 4,294,967,296 blocks per datafile * 32,768 block size = 9,223,231,299,366,420,480 = 8EB.Cheers

Need clarification while using WE19 tool

Dear All,
I have gone through the forums and Blogs but still I am not convinced and need your inputs.
Scenario is IDOC to File .
In we19,We have Sender and Recipient information to be filled in EDIDC record.
1.The sender Partner # and Partner Type is mandatory. Why sender port information is not mandatory? If not mandatory will the system take any default value?
2.If it takes the default value,the Port information will be taken from R/3 or XI system?
2. In Receiver Information for the Port, Partner# and Partner Type, We need to give the configured names from R/3 or XI system and need clarifiaction for the same for Sender Information also.
Please provide your inputs.
Regards
B.Dheepa

Hi Dheepa,
1. I wanted to know how the system recognizes and from where it is taking the information even though I did not configure the port.
> It will use the existing default port, to send the information to XI. You need to specify the receiver port while sedning the IDOC, from that system identifies the default sender port and process the IDOC to push to XI.
2. For maintaining the Prot definations, its standard format followed as SAP <SID>, for e.g. IDE800 , this indicates the port is of SAP landscape IDE and the client is 800. If the organization have multiple SAP landscapes this convention is easy to maintain.
You use the port maintenance in the IDoc adapter to establish an RFC connection to the system that contains the metadata that the IDoc adapter requires to convert IDocs (Intermediate Documents) that have been sent to it to IDoc XML format. This system is defined by the sender port and the client in the IDoc control record. It is either the sender SAP system or an SAP reference system.
You will get all your calrifications at

Need clarification for these names, R/3, WAS, NetWeaver
Thanks again for any input

Added the link to the first post
Message was edited by: xueqing Han

Hi Xueqing,
First of all, sorry for any confusion that we have caused you. I hope I can give you an answer that will clear up the confusion. Sorry, but it is a long explanation of the development of two application solution but history tends to be very long winded!
It is not true SAP R/3 Enterprise equals SAP Web AS, and I'll hopefully explain why:
In the beginning (at least in the client server world) SAP only ship SAP R/3. The technology layer under SAP R/3 was called SAP Basis. There was only SAP Basis under SAP R/3.
SAP then started to deliver other software solutions that were not included in or built on the SAP R/3 software. These included SAP Business Information Warehouse, SAP APO, SAP SEM, SAP CRM, and the list goes on.
These solutions needed to run on technology layer (like SAP R/3 did). SAP Basis was the obvious choice for this because of the common technology layer providing DB/OS abstraction and a coding environment.
~2001:
Later there came the need to have SAP Basis support the web and its web standards and other programming languages. This radically changed what SAP Basis was and we decided to rename the new technology layer to SAP Web Application Server (SAP Web AS). So the SAP Basis name was retired and SAP Basis 4.6D was the last release called SAP Basis.
The new release and the "technology change" means that all the applications mentioned above now ran on SAP Web AS. The first release of SAP Web AS was 6.10.
~2002:
SAP Web AS was first used in SAP R/3 Enterprise release .
The important fact is that SAP R/3 Enterprise runs on SAP Web AS. SAP R/3 Enterprise = SAP R/3 business applications + new business functions + SAP Web AS.
~2003:
I hope the above explanation is clear, because technology takes another major change. It was realized that SAP now had a collection of business solutions/applications (SAP R/3, mySAP CRM, mySAP SCM, etc) and a collection of technology solutions (SAP Web AS, SAP BW, SAP EP, etc). The technology requirements for the business solutions did not end at SAP Web AS, they needed portal, data warehouse, knowledge management capabilities, etc to develop business solutions on.
To address this SAP made the decision to combine all the technology solutions and tools into one single platform. This made complete sense for developers (SAP, Partners and customers). This single platform is called SAP NetWeaver. It includes all the old individual components of SAP Web AS, SAP BW, SAP KM, SAP EP, etc).
~2004:
I think you can guess what the next step is. Yes, the new release of SAP R/3. Since the release of SAP R/3 Enterprise and the release of SAP NetWeaver, SAP R/3's name changes. It is now called mySAP ERP as it includes a lot of applications that were previously sold separately (like SAP SEM, MSS, ESS, etc).
So now mySAP ERP runs on SAP NetWeaver (yes everything that was in SAP Basis and then in SAP Web AS is still there but SAP NetWeaver has so much more now).
Also with the release of SAP NetWeaver, SAP starts to stop using the old technology component names - you will not hear us talk about SAP Web AS, SAP BW, etc anymore, just SAP NetWeaver releases.
In addition all the other SAP business applications also run on SAP NetWeaver, so the latest version of mySAP CRM, mySAP SRM, and mySAP SCM all run on SAP NetWeaver.
So to simplify the explanation, it would be :
Evolution of SAP R/3:
SAP R/3 (up to release 4.6c) -> SAP R/3 Enterprise (releases 1.00 through 2.00 -> mySAP ERP (2004 onward)
Evolution of Basis:
SAP Basis (up to release 4.6d) -> SAP Web AS (up to release 6.40 which was included in SAP NetWeaver '04) -> SAP NetWeaver (2004 onward)
SAP NetWeaver and mySAP ERP have their own release cycles. mySAP ERP always has an underlying technology release that it is built on (this is a SAP NetWeaver release)
I hope this helps,
Mike.

Need clarification regarding the test cable-diagnostics tdr command

Hello,
I've read about the test cable-diagnostics tdr command but I need clarification on the examples listed below to make sure that I am providing the right answer to my co-workers.
Example 1:
CXXX7SW17#show cable-diagnostic tdr int g0/20
TDR test last run on: July 16 10:23:00
Interface Speed Local pair Pair length        Remote pair Pair status
Gi0/20    auto Pair A     N/A                        N/A                Normal
                       Pair B     72   +/- 10 meters N/A                Open
                       Pair C     75   +/- 10 meters N/A                Short/Crosstalk
                       Pair D     74   +/- 10 meters N/A                Short/Crosstalk
Does this example mean that there's a cable length issue in the line which is causing the device that it's connected to not to work properly?
Example 2:
CXXX2SW140#show cable-diagnostics tdr int g0/21
TDR test last run on: July 16 09:16:22
Interface Speed Local pair Pair length        Remote pair Pair status
Gi0/21    100M Pair A     N/A                      Pair A           Normal
                          Pair B     N/A                      Pair B           Normal
                          Pair C     N/A                     Pair C           Normal
                          Pair D     N/A                     Pair D           Normal
Does this example state that the cable line is okay for use?
Example 3:
CXXX1SW19#show cable-diagnostics tdr int g0/22
TDR test last run on: July 16 06:36:53
Interface Speed Local pair Pair length            Remote pair Pair status
Gi0/22   auto    Pair A       1    +/- 10 meters N/A               Open
                          Pair B     39   +/- 10 meters   N/A               Open
                          Pair C     72   +/- 10 meters   N/A               Open
                          Pair D     1    +/- 10 meters    N/A              Open
Does this example mean that there isn't a device connected on the other end? No pin-contact?
Thank you very much for any help you could provide.

I found this article here at supportforums that seemed like the best explanation I've read so far for TDR info.
Hope that helps.

I need the SPICE Model for DS1809 or the component in Multisim. Help mee!

Hey people, I need the SPICE Model for DS1809 (Digital Potentiometer) for Multisim. Does anybody have this?? Or any idea where to get. I searched for, but I coudn't find.
Thank you

Hi,
As you can see in this link the part is longer manufactured and it does not have a replacement.
In terms of functionality, you can try using the component PLL_VIRTUAL in Multisim to replace it in a high level simulation or create a new component of a replacement that you have the SPICE model of.
Let me know if you need any help.
