No entries in Define conversion group and external function module setting.

Hi all,
After active bussiness function SAP Oil & Gas, my system have a problem in SPRO.
SPRO --> IMG --> Industry solution Oil & Gas (Downstream) --> HPM --> QCI configuration --> Define conversion group and external function module setting.
Problem appear: Has no entries in there!
Please, help me! Thank you so much!
Tks & best regards,
DatHT

Dat,
There are few entries normally delivered by SAP and which are good for a regular implementation. It is possible that those are not copied over from the reference client. Second option is to check the BC set (if) available for this activity and pull those in. Check the SAP reference client first, most likely that has entries which you can copy over to your regular client.

Difference between material group and external material group

Hi,
Can anybody let me know the difference between the material group and external materila group from the business perspective.
Thanks

Hi Raghunandan,
Material Group : Materials having similar attributes will be goruped together and assigned to a Material Group.
Material groups are Extensively useful during :
Limit the Scope of Analysis
Reporting Purpose
External material group : Key that you can use to assign the material to an external material group or to a material group determined according to external systematics.
In General, External material groups are nothing but external representation of group of material which are extensively used in supply souce determination for provions materials related to retail and some other functions
In short if your Internal material group for example bearing is 0001 you can group externally further based on manufacturer like FAG for NRB. No accounting activity is based on it

Need help on mapping of obsolete and new function module

Hi Expert,
We are working on a upgradation tool in which i have to repace the obsolete function module "HELP_VALUES_GET_WITH_CHECKTAB
" by "F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST
". I am not sure about the functionalities of these function modules as i have never used it. Can anyone please help me by providing some information abt these FMs. Also i need to do the mapping of parameters of old and new function module. So please provide the details of mapping also. Any pointers on this will be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
P Sharma

Hey Enivass,
you can ckeck the input field "Account Number" whether it is numeric or Alphabet using *"Conversions ->Fixvalues"*
Steps:
1. Extract first character of input using *" Text -> substring"* -- start position 0 , char count 1
2. In Fix Value table you have to give following values:
Dafault value : Alphabet
key----
value
0----
Number
1----
Number
2----
Number
9----
Number
3. Write logic IF "number" than "Arithmatic -> FormatNumber   (0000000000)   -
// for leading zeros
         ELSE
     concat with extra space        -

How to find suitable( existing) function group for a Function Module ?

How to find suitable( existing) function group for a Function Module to be created?
This is FM for converting amounts to text.

Hi,
If you are not sure into which Function group your FM should go in then its advised to create a Function group of your own. Its not advised to create a function module in any other function group unless its owned by you since your FM can get deleted by others or it can get changed.
Create your own Function group. But if you want to create in an existing FG then best way is to find out the Function Group by searching for suitable existing Function module then see their function group

Start conditions and check function modules

Hi,
When we apply start conditions to any particular even linkage you will find check function module as SWB_2_CHECK_FB_START_COND_EVAL. However, what if i want to implement both a custom check function module AND start conditions ?
My requirement is to implement both start conditions and check function module.
Is this possible ?
Thank you,
Nikhil.

Hi,
You can use both of the things, however its advisable to check all start conditions if you are using check FM.
This is interface for custom check FM,once you have the key value, you can put all the checks here
*"*"Local Interface:
*" IMPORTING
*"     VALUE(OBJTYPE) TYPE SWETYPECOU-OBJTYPE
*"     VALUE(OBJKEY) TYPE SWEINSTCOU-OBJKEY

Use of custom structure defined in the program in Function Module

Hi,
We have defined a structure in a program.
We want to define a Tables parameter in a Function module having the same structure as in the program.
Is there a way to do this without defining a standard structure?
Thanks,
Arun

Copy the definition in a Type Group (SE11 - Uilities - Other Dictionary objects) in an Abap syntax, include the type group in function group and program top includes via a [TYPE-POOLS|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPTYPE-POOLS.htm] statement (before Release 7.0, EhP2).

Delete and rename function module

Hi,
I have created a function module, but wanted to rename it afterwards.
that was not possible, because I have got the message, that it´s locked in any transport requests.
So I have copied the function and want to delete the old one now. But the same problem...
I have removed the object entry on "function modules" in the request, but I still get the message, that
it´s locked in the request.
What can I do to delete and rename the functions?
Thank you!

hi ,
GO to se03.
in that you can see , search for objects in request /tasks.
click that ,
in the object selection screen
in R3TR / FUGR - 'Give that function group name'.
you can get all the request , where that function group exists.
Note down the requests.
Then, go back in se03 itself.
There u can see 'unlock objects'.
give the transport numbers in that. It will unlock the function module.
Hope , it vil solve it.
Regards,
sabari

Request having function group released but function module attribute shows not released

Hi experts,
I am a beginner.
There is a transport request in which my function group and other objects were present . This transport request and its task were released . But if i check the attributes section of the function module that is present in that function group , it shows not released .
Is there some problem ? did the function module not get released with its group? It wasn't showing anywhere in the request even though i had added it during creation.
Here is the image :
Thanks,
Unnati

Hi,
Those two meanings of 'released' are unrelated. Don't worry about it.
Also, a function module sometimes does not explicitly appear in a transport request, if the function group is already in there.

How to delete the functional group from an Functional Module without ...

Hi all,
Good morning,
We have created an RFC enabled FM. Now because of enchancement the functional group is to be removed. Is there any other way to remove the Fucntional group without deleting the FM. Please provide your valuable inputs for the same.
Rewards for sure .
Thanks
Mohinder Singh Chauhan

A function group is really one very large program with lots of includes. One of these includes is your Function Module.
So, no, you can't do it through the attributes of the FM. You have to create a new FG and reassign your FM to that group.

BW Upgrade and Missing Function Modules

We just upgraded our BW development system from 3.1 to 3.5 with 353 content and we found out all our customer developed function modules are missing from the upgraded version. Our custom function groups are named "ZBIW" and function modules start with "ZBW*". Would this have caused any problems? Should our modules have started with "Z_" as opposed to "Z".
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Shai

Hi Dinesh,
But the back up is taken prior to upgrade. I do not know if we will end up in more problems, trying to restore objects from different versions of BW.
Thanks

What is the difference using start condition and check function module

what is the difference between using start condition and check function module

That's new to me, I thought a start condition was evaluated before the workflow started, and thus now workflow work item is available. That's why I think the only situation in which start conditions/check functions can't be used, is when the availability of a workflow log for investigation of exactly what stopped the workflow is a requirement.
I suppose the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/4c/86bf43feca11d2a64f0060087a79ea/frameset.htm">SAP documentation</a> is in need of an update.

Defining Dynamic structure in Remote Function module(RFC)

Team,
I got a requirement, where I need to create a dynamic structure and dynamic table in the exporting tab of Function module(RFC).
Say, I have sales request(4 fields) and sales quotation(5 fields).
Depending on the importing parameter, If it sales request I need to export 4 fields as a structure and if in the importing parameter it is sales quotation then I need to pass 5 fields as a structure.
Any help please??
Thanks,
Sai
