Preservation Traceability in SAP.

Hi all,
Could any one suggest me the solution in the below details.
The issue we are facing is in my client, as a whole, is using External batch management. We need to activate internal batch generation for ONLY materials subject to the SLED functionality.
(1. Whenever SLED functionality - Internal Batch Management means : SYSTEM GENERATED .
2.Remanining Whole -> External Batch Management means : Manually. )
There is a user exit that will supposedly handle this
SAP has enhancement SAPLV01Z and function module exit EXIT_SAPLV01Z_001 which will supposedly allow you to modify which number range object is used".
Here SAP Provided particular example:
Example 4
Material-number-dependent batch number assignment
In material-number-dependent batch number assignment, materials that are handled in batches must be maintained in the table BNMAT, which specifies the assignment of the material to the number range.
If there is no assignment in the table, the system aborts batch number assignment. An error message appears informing you that batch number assignment is not possible and specifying the table that has to be maintained.
Each material number is assigned a number range object, a sub-object, and a number range in the table BNMAT. This is how each material receives its own batch number range.
The number range object BATCH_MAT is an example of this. The material numbers are divided into groups via their material type that match the sub-object. Each material number is then assigned its own number range by table BATCH_MAT. The number ranges used must be maintained in the number range object.
Thanks,
Kumar.

Hi Brad,
To understand the issue clearly , i mentioned full details also i mentioned bold letters about my query.
i,e. External batch management. We need to activate internal batch generation for ONLY materials subject to the SLED functionality.
(1. Whenever SLED functionality - Internal Batch Management means : SYSTEM GENERATED .
2.Remanining Whole -> External Batch Management means : Manually. )
Suggest me the process how to approach further.
Please suggest me if you know, or other members will help.
Thanks,
Kumar.

Traceability on reclass of batch

hi all,
we're facing an issue of loosing aging traceability due to re-class happened on batch.
here is the process/logic:
Our logic is to retrieve data from MSLB (Special Stocks with Vendor) first, from there were getting material doc/year/profit center/quantity with movement type
(541,542,543,544,701,702,309) from MSEG based on the following logic.
select mblnr bwtar prctr bwart xauto menge mjahr
into (w_mslb2-mblnr, w_mslb2-bwtar, w_mslb2-prctr, w_mslb2-bwart,
w_mslb2-xauto, w_mslb2-menge, w_mslb2-mjahr)
from mseg
where matnr = w_mslb-matnr
and werks = w_mslb-werks
and lifnr = w_mslb-lifnr
and charg = w_mslb-charg
and bwart in (541,542,543,544,701,702,309).
With the above data, we get the document posting date from MKPF. And we calculate the aging based on the date for movement type 541.
select single budat into w_mslb2-budat
from mkpf
where mblnr = w_mslb2-mblnr
and mjahr = w_mslb2-mjahr.
case w_mslb2-bwart.
when '541'.
w_mslb2-aging = sy-datum - w_mslb2-budat.
In case reclass on batch happen.
eg:
541 for part A batch#123
309 to reclass part A to batch#456
543 for part A batch#456
we'll not able to capture the correct aging days for original
part A batch#123.
Please advise anywhere we can link up between part A batch#123 and part A batch#456 in order to trace the aging.

you cannot cover all business processes in that area with one program. please consider setting up batch traceability using SAP standard like described [here|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/d2/05c838f2fbb363e10000000a114084/frameset.htm].

Gl Tolerance set up for Autoposting

Hi ,
We have EBS files posting to SAP ( autopost) to GL's and some of the entries in this autpost are not cleared automatically the automatic clearing differences are too high. I checked the tolerance group for those GL's in OBA0 ( both From and To ) for a given company code and its Blank there is no tolrance group defined , the limits on the blank tolerance group is very less and it fails to autpost when it is more than 50 million . Can some one let me know what changes I need to make for this autopost to be sucessful when the amounts from the bank file are too large ?
Thanks in advance .

Hi,
maybe I understand you wrong, however the whole purpose of tolerance in deviations is to minimize manual process in the case those differences are immaterial. E.g. your expected incoming payment amount from one of your Customers is EUR 10,00 (ten Euros), however due to whatever reason you receive just 9,95. So instead of starting a manual work flow in your office and negotiating difference of EUR 0,05, which might cost you much more in terms of alternative costs - some time of your human resource, also some correspondence relevant costs, etc. - let's assume EUR 5, you just clear that item, putting that difference amount to some P&L account - this is fully traceable in SAP.
on the other hand, if you talk about deviations of around 50 mio, I don't think it makes any sense, cause it is very huge risk and direct high-way to financial errors and/ or frauds. And, of course, in this case every item should be dealt with proper diligence. also, I assume a number of those material deviations is usually limited, so this is another reason why no automation is expected there.
hope this will help you.

Sub Lot creation and Tracibility

Hi,
Our client is Auto component supplier, we are implementing PP-Repetetive here. we are going to have multi level BOM.
Following is business requirement at each BOM level:
1. Each production Run is identified as a Batch.
2. A batch will stored in many baskets.
3. Tracibility is need to be at Basket level
Business need to make unique Identification for each Basket.
Basket is consumed (GI) to subsequent header material.
Is there any way we can create sub Batch No for these basket.
Or any suggetsed way to address this requirement

Dear ADITYA,
theoretically the only object in SAP ERP below the batch is the serial number. However the serial number objected is not fully incorporated in the various MM/PP functions and therefore I would not recommend this; especially in the automotive industry.
For traceability requirements in the automotive supplier industry we recommend the additional product: SAP Manufacturing Execution by Visiprise. This product focuses on tracking and traceability and SAP and Visiprise have defined a intergration scenario to be able to address the requirements of the automotive industry. Please see attached link for some highlevel information on this.

SAP pdf coversion fails to preserve hyperlink (SCOT)

Hi
I create an email in raw text format. The URL is quite long and spans 2 lines.
When Sap Connect (SCOT) is configured to output emails in txt format, the emails are
generated fine, and the URL can be clicked on.
However, when the SCOT email option is configured to output PDF format,
an automatic line break is inserted in the URL. So when you click on the URL hyper link only the first part (first
line) is copied in to the browser, the rest is ignored. So we must cut and paste the rest manually.
Any ideas how to fix this?
Kind regards

You may be able to find more information by putting an infinite loop at the beginning of your user exit:
x = ' '.
while x = ' '.
x = ' '.
endwhile.
and then go into debugging via SM50 and set the x variable to break out of the loop.
This technique is useful debugging workflows and other code which you cannot get to directly by placing a break-point.

Reinstalling Windows 2003 server while preserving the SAP installation

Is it possible, and if so how, to reinstall windows 2003 server without damaging SAP isntallation. With AIX it certainly is possible but within windows environment I am not sure.
Please comment with suggestion.

Reinstalling Windows 2003 while preserving the SAP installation

Hi Experts,

Is it possible, and if so how, to reinstall windows 2003 server without damaging SAP isntallation. With AIX it certainly is possible but within windows environment I am not sure.
Please comment with suggestion.
Kind regards.

it is not possible to reinstall the operating system without reinstalling the SAP Software.
Main reason about this is:
1. a lot of information is stored in the windows registry (Environment, Service Definition etc) which is inital after the reinstallation of the OS
2. the operating system installation will generate a new SID (an identifier which is used in File, Directory, Service etc Access Control Lists). Therefore all security settings on files etc done by the first installation are no longer vaild.
therefore the homogenious system is necessary.

BOBJ SAP Integration with Active Directory SSO via Portal

Hi all,
We are only interating BOBJ with BW/BI and the user experience is as follows:
Users login to the SAP Portal using their Windows Active Directory user id and password to gain access to the portal.
From my understanding at the moment, the way the interation kit works is that the BOBJ system is configured as per the manual importing the SAP roles and SAP users who will access the Crystal reports via either GUI or Portal.
My question is: When creating a Crystal report is created, the connection details use SAP login credentials and in the CMC the SSO option can be set so that the SAP user who has logged onto GUI or Portal can launch the report... this is fine and works as intended taken that the user logged on with his/her SAP login. As per the user experience above, users log in using their AD Login into Portal, and never use GUI, where this in theory is SSO into Portal. So how does one get past the login screens (BOBJ and database) while preserving AD SSO to SAP and BOBJ?
Any guidance, documents or comments will be much appreciated.
Thanks
Jacques

HI,
yes it is possible:
take a look at the blogs I did on the install and configuration (specially the SAP Authentication):
BusinessObjects and SAP - Installation and Configuration Part 1 of 4
Install Part #1
BusinessObjects and SAP - Installation and Configuration Part 2 of 4
Install Part #2
BusinessObjects and SAP - Installation and Configuration Part 3 of 4
Install Part #3
BusinessObjects and SAP - Installation and Configuration Part 4 of 4
Install Part #4
BusinessObjects and SAP - Configure SAP Authentication
SAP Authentication
Important here is that:
- the BI System is configured to accept tickets
- the portal and BI system are configured as trusted system
- the SAP authentication is configured

Issues in exporting data from SAP tables in SE16 to excel

1.How can I save an sap table (displayed through SE16) in ECC6 into a pivot table in excel. [ I have seen this option in R/3 4.7, but do not see it in ECC.]
2.How can I copy all the rows of a 3000 row SAP table in SE16 and paste the values into excel. I need to do this in one shot and not page by page.
3.What option do I need to select inorder to preserve the formating of the values while saving as a local file in a spreadsheet format. All the values with leading zeros,like company codes gets saved with only their numeric portion when I save a SAP table as a local file. for eg company code 0001 gets saved in excel as just 1,company code 0056 gets saved as 56 etc. How do I prevent this? What option do I need to set in SAP in order for the values to be downloaded as is, without any truncation of leading zeros.

1. I don't know. How about creating a pivot after exporting data
2. System->List->Save->local file->clipboard
Then paste whole lot in Excel
3. This is a problem with Excel, not SAP. SAP exports with leading zeroes.
You could export as flat file & import into Excel into a spreadsheet with an appropriate numbering format.

HU traceability is missing when HU unpacked(Transaction LM22).

Hi SAP Gurus,
I have a requirement to know details of Handling unit like HU unpacked, material, batch ,qty when unpack using LM22 and packing using LM19.
Firstly, Warehouse Operators will use only LM22 and LM19 transactions for Unpacking/Packing of Handling units.
When I unpack Qty the Qty unpacked is moving to Partner SLOC for HU SLOC and material Document is created.
Hence identify for HU is loosing(No traceability).
When I pack the qty and I am not able to find Identify for HU from which Hu the qty is unpacked from.
hich iAs per client requirement..need to find an Original Handling unit from New handling unit is created and send the same information to Legacy system.
Your inputs like Userexits, BADI'S in through which i can establish HU traceability using Mobile transactions LM22,LM19 is most helpful.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Hari Challa!
Thaks a lot for your help, but I need to use this transaction becouse I am working with a warehouse that is management with RF system and in this case they need to use this transaction.
I Know how to unpack in an Outbound delivery, and Inbound delivery and using the HU02 transaction. But I need this one.
Thanks a lot!
Does any one know any think about this transaction? LM22?

Integrating FIM with SAP using web services connector

Hi
I am implementing the FIM web services connector to integrate with SAP. The MS connector config guide for SAP documentation seems to me missing some content or at least I think it might be written for an earlier version of
SAP than the version we are working with(different screenshots, options, etc). The version of SAP we have implemented is EHP6 for SAP ERP6 which I believe translates to ECC6.
SAP web services have been configured and FIM performs successful discovery of the wsdl endpoint and BAPI operations as expected. Our issue is that FIM fails to run a full import. From the digging around web service config and error logs two observations comes
out:
1. FIM Full Import workflow does not render correctly through the web service configuration tool and complains of a duplicate attribute "xml:space is a duplicate attribute on line on line 424 on position 103". Review of the wsconfig generated by the
webservice config tool points to an variable supplied to a construct the query to a BAPI of HR infotype 0006. Extract below:
...<InArgument x:TypeArguments="d:BAPIP0006L" xml:space="preserve">[If(Not IsNothing(addressInfo) AndAlso Not IsNothing(addressInfo.item), addressInfo.item, Enumerable.Empty(Of BAPIP0006L)()).
OrderByDescending(Function(a) DateTime.ParseExact(a.VALIDBEGIN, dataSourceDateFormatValue, Nothing)).
ThenByDescending(Function(a) Integer.Parse(a.RECORDNR)).FirstOrDefault()]</InArgument>...
I can only guess that it means the query should keep the spaces within the string it passes to SAP but this is where my understanding stops.
2. SAP returns errors about not implementing a BAPI EMPLOYEE_GETDATA function which is not part of the exposed BAPI operations. Well the obvious solution to this would be expose this missing operation (which is undocumented in MS config guide) however this
BAPI is a core requirement to retrieve person information. I would be hugely surprised if this operation was not factored into the config. This makes me think that to understand this better I need to resolve issue 1 first and get the rendering sorted first.
Has anyone come across the above issues with a recent implementation with this connector? Or help point me in the right direction?
any help would be greatly appreciated!
thanks!!

Hi Joe,
you most probably missed the sentence "Add the required BAPI’s in the function group and select those required BAPI’s and click continue." in the "Connector for SAP.docx" document on page 8. In other words your webservice does not provide the required
BAPIs.
In the "DefaultSAPECC_6.wsconfig" the workflows for import and export require specific BAPIs.
Also make sure that your Service Definition has got the same name as in the documentation and the workflow template.
I was fighting with this for the last 4 days but in the end got it working.
Hope this helps

Batch Traceability for Sugar as raw material during the production process

Dear Colleague ,
I need your support for a traceability issue in a customer on beverage sector
See the case below:
Batch Traceability for Sugar as raw material during the production process
In AMSB the batch traceability in some production processes is very difficult, especially in case of sugar where tanks wherein more than one batches of the same material can be mixed. For example, in a single day almost 17-20 batches of the same material can be mixed and as the result is a composition of water and sugar the normal FIFO rule strategy cannot be applied during the component consumption.
The raw material (sugar) is received in tank S5 at different points of time, and its content is transferred to tank B1 for storage purposes as well as for mix the sugar with other material such as water.
At a specific moment the S5 tank contains only a single batch, while the tank B1 contains more than one batch. Tank B1 is used in order to supply the production line and the corresponding material consumption is triggered in backflush as soon as the production activity is declared (production confirmation). Along with the material consumption the batch determination takes place and a complex algorithm is applied: at a very high level, the single batch is consumed depending on its percentage inside the mix of composition and in case the this
percentage is under a threshold level the current batch should be full used in order to avoid that it will exist for ever.
Moreover, the good movement reversal (reversal of material consumption) and its correction lead to a complete new calculation of all the batches consumed after the original movement date/time. This means that the algorithm for batch determination should be reapplied for all the consumptions subsequent to the original movement.
On the other hand it’s not possible to identify the mix of batches at the exit point of silos B1 because the total consumption of the material in the tank will never happen. As long as the tank level decreases it will be filled up from the tank used for receiving of sugar (S5).
As requirement AMSB needs to post the material consumption starting from EWM, this means that EWM should be the master system in this case and the correspondingmovements have to be transferred to ECC afterwards. This mainly because EWM should guarantee the business continuity in case the ERP system is not available.
AMSB asked if the scenario depicted has been implemented in some customer, in EWM system or in any other SAP solution.

Hi ,
At the time of consumption you can put ' * ' aestrix sign in the batch field.
You will get list of batches of that material.select ur batch and consume the quantity.

View with SAP tables fails with "No Owner" error

Dear experts,
We have created a view (VIEW_MARA_MAKT) on Information Steward (4.2 SP1) using SAP tables MARA and MAKT. This view is working perfectly. Next we create another view to join with our previous view (VIEW_MARA_MAKT) to table MARC. The view validates correctly, but when trying to view the data we get the following error:
Data Services execution failed for VIEW_MATERIAL_PLANT. Error :

Import this table from the external source.

It appears that DS is not satisfied that there is no owner name sent from IS, but for SAP connections it is not possible to specify owner names when adding the tables to IS.
Please can you give some recommendations to resolve this error.

What you can do is to use a table of record.
And create a block based on stored procedure.
Below is a table of record and procedure for querying from multi-tables.
If you want to update, insert, delete rows, you need to create 3 more procedures on the package. One for updating, another for inserting, and so on.
I never done updaing part before. So I need to spend time for coding.
If you want, I can post later as soon as I got it.
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE TEST5 AS
TYPE REC1 IS RECORD (FIRST TEST1.FIRST%TYPE,
SECOND TEST1.SECOND%TYPE,
THIRD TEST2.THIRD%TYPE);
TYPE TAB1 IS TABLE OF REC1 INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
PROCEDURE TEST1CREATE (P_TAB IN OUT TAB1);
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY TEST5 AS

Soap Sender Adapter Preserve And Access Soap Header

Hi,
I would like to preserve the Soap Header created by a client and access it in a mapping using the the Soap Sender Adapter (SP16). Does anybody know how to do this?
Kind regards,
Heiko

Hello Udo,
I have found a solution to this problem. It is possible to add header entries to the DynamicConfiguration which is available by an API:
soapMsg.append("<SOAP-ENV:Header>");
soapMsg.append("<SAP:DynamicConfiguration xmlns:SAP=\"http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30\" xmlns:SOAP=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\" SOAP:mustUnderstand=\"1\">");
soapMsg.append("<SAP:Record namespace=\"http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/SOAP\" name=\"SRmsUser\">test</SAP:Record>");
This code snip shows Java client code to add an element to the SOAP header which corresponds to the DynamicConfiguration. In XI it will be accessable using the respective API.
Cheers,
Heiko

Does /sapmnt need in cluster file system(SAP ECC 6.0 with oracle RAC)

We are going to be installing SAP with Oracle 10.2.0.4 RAC on Linux SuSE 10 and OCFS2. The Oracle RAC documentation states:
You must store the following components in the cluster file system when you use RAC
in the SAP environment:
- Oracle Clusterware (CRS) Home
- Oracle RDBMS Home
- SAP Home (also /sapmnt)
- Voting Disks
- OCR
- Database
What I want to ask is if I really need put SAP Home(also /sapmnt) on cluster file system? I will build a two nodes oracel 10g RAC and I also have another two nodes to install SAP CI and DI. My orginial think is sapmnt is a NFS share, and mount to all four nodes(RAC node and CI/DI), and all oracle stuff was on OCFS2(only two rac nodes are OCFS), anybody can tell me if SAP Home(also /sapmnt) can be NFS mount not OCFS2, thanks.
Best regards,
Peter

Hi Peter,
I don't think you need to keep /sapmnt in ocfs2 . Reason any file system need to be in cluster is,in RAC environment, data stored in the cache of one Oracle instance to be accessed by any other instance by transferring it across the private network and preserves data integrity and cache coherency by transmitting locking and other synchronization information across cluster nodes.
AS this applies to redo files, datafiles and control files only , you should be fine with nfs mount of /sapmnt sharing across and not having ocfs2.
