Process Change

Hi,
Do you how to stop the Process Chain so that no loading can happened?
Also, is there a way for us to list up the number of Data Source that is being used in the BW system?
Please advise, thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for help.
Process Chains:
Yes, in SM37->Job->Steps->Goto->Variant, I see some of the PC there.
But how can we stop it?
In RSPC->Start Process Type->Maintain Variant ->Chain Selection, if only the Immediate Start option is checked (the Periodic job option is not checked), does it mean this Process Chain run only once?
And in some of the Process Chain In RSPC->Start Process Type->Maintain Variant, I see Start Using Meta Chain or API option is selected, what does it mean?
On DataSource, I checked table ROOSOURCE + Version = A and I only have 40 records.
When I checked the RSMO, I can see that I have 136 InfoPackage. Why?
Please help, thanks.

How to process change of country w/out Management of Global EE's

Good afternoon. My client is live and I am unsure of the consequences of turning on Management of Global Employees in a live payroll client. How would I process change of country w/out this functionality turned on? If I do turn it on, in a live client what are the consequences if any? Many thanks for any insights

Processing changes in Syabse database table

Can someone help me understand best way to process changes on a database table using XI?
I'm crrently doing this using webmethods where webmethods generates a xml document whenever a row is inserted in a database using adapter notification mechanism. Then I can process this document by calling webservice.

Thx Naveen,
e.g. I insert a customer record in Sybase system, I would like that XI interface would insert same customer in SAP or another Database system and this should happen as a result in insert in Sybase table.
Other way I can already achive this is by having XI look in a sybase table periodicaly and see if there are new rows of data added to the table since it last looked and then process those rows accordingly. I don't want to use this approach since it keeps looking at certain intervals and most of the time there won't be anything for it to process. Also when there is something to process, it will not be processed instanteneously but only when XI looks at the table next time around.
This is whole debate about pushing data v/s polling for changes. I would like to push the info at the time data is inserted in sybase table instead of having to poll for it.
appreciate your response.

TS50000075(Process Change Request (Web)

Hi All,
We have customized a standard PCR workflow WS50000031(2 level approval) based on our requirements, which is using another sub -workflow for approval step..
The sub-workflow has a step for task TS50000075(Process Change Request (Web)).
The problem is, the above workflow step creates an workitem which appears in SAP Inbox as well in UWL..
When the item is processed from UWL it does not have any effect, but the item retains in the UWL with status 'In Process' as well in SAP inbox with status 'Reserved' and the workflow execution does not happen further.
But, when it is done from Inbox, the item disappears and workflow execution continues..
Please let me know how could I resolve this issue..
Thanks & regards,
Santhosh

Number of active processes changing periodically

In my MacBook Air I'm noticing a strange thing. Using Activity Monitor I see that the number of active processes changes periodically. Initially I see 7-8 active processes and immediately after 2 seconds the number of active processes grows to 20 or even more and after a while it changes again to few processes. Is this normal?

It depends ob the processes, obviously, but it's probably normal. The system will naturally launch an assortment of background processes to handle different tasks as they arise.

How to process changes in ALV

Hello everyone,
I would need to process changes from Web Dynpro ALV in the same way as in SAP GUI ALV. There is a even DATA_CHANGED which has parameter
er_data_change
which has three tables
er_data_change->mt_good_cells is
er_data_change->mt_inserted_rows
er_data_change->mt_deleted_rows
Is there some way how to do this in WD ALV?
The reason why I need that is to get exactly the same values which has the user entered into the ALV. Currently, when user enter value "1" as key figure, the ALV returns the value converted in internal format as "1.00".
Thanks in advance for any input,
Tomas

Hi Thomas,
I think there are not such methods to get inserted or deleted rows. But you can get the changes made by user in the context. To achieve this follow the process:
Enable the context change log in the init method of component controller:
DATA: z_context TYPE REF TO if_wd_context.
z_context = wd_context->get_context( ).
z_context->enable_context_change_log( ).
Then call following method in the component controller to get the context changes:
DATA: lt_changes TYPE wdr_context_change_list.
DATA: z_context TYPE REF TO if_wd_context.
z_context = wd_context->get_context( ).
lt_changes = z_context->get_context_change_log( ).
You will get all context changes in the table lt_changes.
Compare these values with the values before context change.
I hope this will help.
Regards,
Saket.

ACS 5.3 not processing changes

Hello,
We have Cisco ACS 5.3 and it was set up with all the rules, users, groups etc and it worked really well from the get go. The problem we are having now is that since we've set it up, not much changes need to be made often and when we do try to make a change, ACS seems to not be recognizing the change.
Under : (Access Policies > Access Services > Default Device Admin sdsff> Authorization)
I've created a new rule to allow a new group of users to access a specific device type and ACS is not showing any hits to the counter. I've had a similar error before and restarting the box solved it but I would really not want to think that each time we need to make a change I'll have to restart the box. All the processes are running.
ACS01/admin# show application status acs
ACS role: PRIMARY
Process 'database' running
Process 'management' running
Process 'runtime' running
Process 'view-database' running
Process 'view-jobmanager' running

Is there anyone experiencing a similar error or knows how I can fix it?

Macbook Pro crash on MtLion - crash report added (BSD process changes regularly)

Hi everyone,
I have a Macbook Pro (mid2007, 2,4ghz - ram upgraded to 4gb from 2) that is crashing constantly, has been happening since Mtlion and I see that it's been happening with quite a few different models that were released after too. I had a corrupted (needs replacement) sign from disk utility so i tried disk warrior and no repair possible so replaced the drive with a new one, and also reinstalled apps and files from scratch (didn't recover from TM backup). But I am still getting a crash sign. I thought it might be the RAM as it is apparently one of the major issues, I tried Tech Tool Pro and Rember (as heard TTP isn't as reliable) but they both say the RAM is working fine.
Now onto the actual issue: My mac randomly freezes for about 10 secs in the middle of browsing (both chrome and safari, Im not even using chrome now, only safari) and after the freeze the screen turns off, then turns on again in a faint grey screen (not the grey veil of death) and says "computer crashed because of a problem...click any button". Now I have read in countless forums (and i hate and apologise for starting a new thread) but I really believe that my hardware isn't an issue, but I cannot find the culprit in the software, so I was really hoping someone could help me out with this, as mentioned on the title, the BSD process of the Crash Report tends to change between "kernel_task", safari plugins, and when I was using chrome "Chrome HE" (of course, as mentioned, since I stopped using chrome i don't get this one now).
Here's the latest crash report, thanks in advance for help everyone:

I'm losing LIghtroom processing changes when opening photo in Photoshop. Why?

I have been using Lightroom only for a couple of weeks. For several years I used Bridge and Camera Raw for RAW file processing. After noticing that every .DNG file I process in LIghtroom 5.4 and subsequently open in Photoshop-CS4 loses the Lightroom processing in Photoshop, I conducted the following experiment:
A .dng file that had not previously been in LR catalog was placed in folder as Original DNG.dng.
File was copied and named Lightroom Processed.dng
Both files were imported into LR
The Lightroom Processed.dng file was loaded into Develop module and Exposure set to +5.00. (Note that original is underexposed by about 1 stop and at +5 the photo is almost completely washed out.)
Lightroom Processed.dng was opened in Photoshop-CS4. (There was no prompt for "Edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments". I'm assuming it was because it was a .dng file.) The original underexposed version was displayed is PS. When Ctrl-S was used to save the file, a file entitled Lightroom Processed-Edit.tif was automatically saved in the same folder and imported into LR.
I copied the Develop Settings from Lightroom Processed.dng to LIghtroom Processed-Edit.tif and the numeric exposure setting was displayed as +5.00 BUT there are slight differences in appearance and in the histogram for the .dng and .tif versions. The .tif version is very slightly darker than the .dng version.
I opened LIghtroom Processed-Edit.tif in PS. This time I was prompted to "Edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments" along with the other two options for opening a copy without adjustments or opening original. I selected "Edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments".
I can't believe that one cannot process a raw file in Lightroom and then open it in Photoshop without having the processing one does in Lightroom carry over into Photoshop. I've never had this problem using Bridge and Camera Raw. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance to all who can help with this problem.

@willard, moving from a Photoshop Bridge-ACR workflow to an Lightroom workflow there are a couple important differences to be aware off.
a. ACR/Bridge uses .xmp sidecars to read and write changes to raw files(in the case of DNG files the .xmp data is stored within the file header). ACR/ Bridge cannot read the data stored in the Lightroom Catalog. The info is in the file.
b. Lightroom by default uses a Catalog file to read and write all that you do in Lightroom. The info is in the Catalog. There is also the option to have Lightroom also write info to a sidecar .xmp file or within the file header of DNG, TIFF or JPG files. This can also be achieved by using the CTRL/CMD-S. This info in the .xmp or DNG files is used by ACR/Bridge.
c. In your case the xmp data written by LR 5 which uses the equivalent of ACR 8.4 will not be fully understood by PS CS4 which uses ACR 5.x.
d. So if you open a DNG file directly in PS CS4 there will not be full compatibly. (you may have requested Lightroom to write to the DNG file but PS CS4 cannot read it all)
Quote "(There was no prompt for "Edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments". I'm assuming it was because it was a .dng file.) "

Batch Process Change Canvas Size Buggy

I have 300+ products shots that need to go up to our website.
Using FW CS3 I was able to resize and optimize both full size
images and the thumbnails. The issue is due to our website setup
the thumbnails are expected to be exactly 100x100. If the canvas
size is irregular the image gets stretched or squeezed when served
up on the site.
So I created a custom action to set the canvas size to 100 x
100 with a white background and to expand from the center out. When
I run this manually everything is ducky. But when I add it to my
batch process the actual content of the thumbnails moves from image
to image. Some items are centered fine, some are too far left or
too far right (or high,low) some are shifted so much that they are
actually cut off to the left or right. There seems to be no rhyme
or reason to it.
Here is how the batch is set up:
It grabs the original file ( a press resolution PSD file) and
fit to size to 100 x 100. Then I run the command to set canvas size
to 100x100 white background. And then it exports it to optimized
jpeg. I have tried running the actions separately. And when I just
run the fit to size and optimization as a batch the thumbs look
fine no weird positioning. So I know it is the command.
Any ideas?

Thankyou Heath
If I choose scale > scale to fit area > then choose a maximum width or height, that works for that part of the process.
Percentage doesn’t work, because I need them to be a particular size (either width or height, doesn’t matter , as long as nither of them exceeds 00px)
For the part that I then want to find the smallest measurement (width or height) and make a particular size, there doesn’t seem to be any way that I can find in FW to do that.
But, after searching on line, I found an app that does all that and more, its brilliant. It will find the largest side, the smallest side, or whatever and change it to what you want and rescale the other side to fit.

User Exit for Inbound Process - Changing IDOC control record

Hi,
I want to utilize the identification field (under details tab) of the IDOC Control Record. What is the suitable user exit for inbound process that i can use to change the IDOC control record?

It's been a long time since I have done any IDOC processing.
Go to SE37 and enter the function module IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS. Display the source code. Search for "CALL CUSTOMER". You should see several "CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION" lines. These are enhancements where you can manipulate the IDOC data. If you locate the correct one (where the data is read from the IDOC but not yet validated), you should be able to map the partner function value. Double-clicking on the number in quotes will bring you to an "EXIT_" function module. A "ZX" INCLUDE program is referenced. If you haven't used the exit yet, double-clicking on the ZX INCLUDE will create it. The values passed into the function module are available in the INCLUDE.
Ideally, you should create a project in transaction CMOD that references the chosen enhancement. This way you can activate/deactivate without commenting/uncommenting the code in the INCLUDE.

F110 Payment processing - Changing Banks

Hello,
I have a customer that wants to be able to process a payment run for a group of 250 vendors or so. They want to be able to assign 1 million EUROS to Bank A, 250.000 Euros to Bank B, and 750.000 Euros to Bank C.
Last time they ran it, they said it took them two hours to go into the proposal and manually change all of the vendors banks to make the money balance out between them.
Does anybody know if there is an easy way to change a group of vendors payment bank without giving the customer access to FI12 or FBZP? I've tried it but I've had to resort to manually changing each line item for each vendor.
thanks

Hi,
The amount that needs to be paid from your House Bank to the Vendor can be controlled using configuration OBVCU (you can also use FBZP). Under available amounts for your House Banks A, B and C you can define 1M, 0.25M and 0.75M.
What your AP team is currently doing is not efficient as they are manually changing the House Banks on the payment proposal to balance the outgoing payment amount. But from your requirement it seems the available outgoing payment amounts for the House Banks keep on changing from period to period. In that case OBVCU will either become a monthly maintenance exercise or the other alternative would be to look for a user-exit in which you can write custom code and reference the available amounts from a custom table. You can provide maintenance access to AP team for this custom table to update the available amounts.

Migration of Open Tasks when BPM Processes Change during major releases

Hi
This is the most often scenario faced by many project teams during Go-Lives of BPM Processes.
We would like to migrate BPM tasks from older BPM processes to newer BPM process. And there is substantial changes done between two releases.
Though I am aware that older BPM tasks created get suspended, is there way to do the following:
1. Use any migration tools to migrate old BPM tasks to newer BPM task
2. Simultaneously have both Older and Newer BPM Processes run in Environment, let them co-exist till the old BPM tasks get completed
What is the recommended approach for these kind of situations, when its not possible to either of the above activities.
Thanks and Regards,
Srikant

Hi Srikant,
we were facing the same issues. We have a solution for this, but it has some prerequisites to make it work. I actually talked about it at the DSAG (German SAP User Group) conference (see blog) and promised the audience to blog about it in more detail, but haven’t yet found the time to do so.
First very important is to understand how the life cycle works. There are two very important documents to read:
SAP Note 1865683
SCN Artikel Understanding Business Process Lifecycle Management Features of SAP NetWeaver BPM
With complex processes and major changes, it is very complex to maintain multiple versions. If you read through the above mentioned documents that becomes very clear. Also there are other complexities, for example code reuse, data, support desk issues or user training. There are also some restrictions running multiple versions of the same process (SAP Note 1865683)
So here is in short what we did.
We keep all our process data outside the process context in a database including the state, i.e. the current process step. When we deploy a new major version, we cancel all running process instances and then restart them with the new process model. To restart processes we use the SAP scheduler which starts a process if a specific status value is found.
If you don’t have your process data easily available you could use the process export function in the NWA. The export is an XML file that you could possible parse, but I haven't actually tried this method.
In the process model we have an exclusive choice gateway where can import a process to specific process step. This happens right at start of the process. The gateway evaluates the status value mentioned above to decide where to go.
I hope to find the time to write the blog soon. Here I could give you a complete example how we do the reimport of processes.
I’m also very interested in other ways to achieve this, so this should be an interesting discussion.
Regards
Detlev

Consignment process - change of delivering plant (consignor)

Hi Gurus,
Our organisation has decided to change the Plant from PL01 to PL02 for the consignment process hence needs all the consignment stock move to PL02 and the future processing of consignment fill ups, issues , returns and pick up should be done through PL02.
I need your suggestion on how to deal with this change and please help me with what all config changes do I need to do to deal with this change.
Thanks in advance!
Regards
Bawa

1) You have to extend those materials in plant PL01 to PL02
2) From there you can process consignment fillup
3) For already despatches made from PL01 and stored as a special stock, client has to decide as to whether he will retain the same plant in case of returns at a later date. Else, he will have to do the process of consignment pickup for those special stocks and redo the fillup order creation. This exercise is only to set right the things / datas in SAP.
thanks
