Viewing VA03 differently in Production client and testing client.

Do any expert out there, know why the accounting document cannot be view in the following document in VA03 but if i view in FB03 it exist. The behaviour is different between our Production client.
Do i need to check any box to view this? i'm using ECC6.

Hi, one time I saw it on my client, I know only that the table with indexes(in fi) had inconsistency. Try to search for notes. To be sure check that MM documents has the same issue

Need a tool to create Development and Test instance of a Production db

I am very new to Oracle and have previously worked with SQL Server 2005/8 only.
My current company only has one instance of the Oracle database (which is production) and until now, all development and testing used to take place on the same instance (what a mess!!).
Anyways, we have now decided to create a development and test on a separate physical machine. We are on Oracle 11g on Windows 2008 Server.
In SQL Server, it used to be fairly simple, just take a full backup of the database and restore it on another box with SQL Server and we had a new instance of the same database.
Can someone point out a simple technique to create these development and test instance in Oracle. Essentially, we want to clone the database. Are there any tools available that can make this task simple.
Thanks.

Welcome the the forums !
I believe this question is better suited to the "Database - General" forum (General Database Discussions but here is my take.
You will first need to clone the Oracle binaries (ORACLE_HOME) - see MOS Doc 1154613.1 (Master Note For Cloning Oracle Database Server ORACLE_HOME's Using the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI))
Then clone the database - see MOS Doc 458450.1 (Steps to Manually Clone a Database)

SQL Server Gateway Licensing - Production and Test

I have a client who has two databases that need to use the SQL Server Gateway - production and test (two separate servers).
As the gateway is separately licensed and can be installed on a separate machine from the database server am I right in saying that only one license is needed for the Gateway
and that both test and production databases can use it?
The Oracle Partner that they use is telling them that they need to buy two Gateway licences.
Can any one help? Thanks!

CX_SY_FILE_OPEN_MODE - short dump on production but not in Dev and Test

Hello,
I'm getting the follwoing short dump in production when I run the program which writes the data to application server. I have open data set and close data set. Same program when I in development and test I do not get any short dump. Can any know what could be cause for this.
CX_SY_FILE_OPEN_MODE
Copy paste of error analysis from ST22 short dump -
Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_FILE_OPEN_MODE', was not
     caught in
    procedure "DATA_UPLOAD_APP_SERVER" "(FORM)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING
     clause.
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
    exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    When accessing the file "/bw/FTPOUT/BPR/OTHER/test.csv", the system recognized
     that this file is
    not open. Therefore, the file cannot be accessed.

The file could not be OPENed in your production system for a variety of reasons - no authorization, file doesn't exist etc. You should have check sy-subrc right after OPEN DATASET and if not zero, yous should not TRANSFER or READ the file and instead you should have given a message with sy-msgid and sy-msgno which would give you the reason. The dump here is simply saying that OPEN is unsuccessful, so any subsequent READ or TRANSFER would throw runtime dump, if done after an unsuccessful OPEN.

Service product replication for test and developement system

Hi Experts,
In our scanario service product is created in production system and later manually created in test and developement system.
Is there is any standard function module avilable to replicate the product master data into test and developement system
Or Is it possible to use the middleware functionallity to replicate the service product details.
Please advice on this issue.
Thanks,
Senthil .R

You can use the FindFile method in the TS API:
FindFile Method
Syntax
Engine.FindFile ( fileToFind, absolutePath, userCancelled, promptOption = FindFile_PromptHonorUserPreference, srchListOption = FindFile_AddDirToSrchList_Ask, isCommand = False, [currentSequenceFile])
The function itself returns a boolean which indicates if the file exists or not.
Then just use a Call Executable step to run command line string to delete the file.
Hope this helps!

How to delete users from Dev and Testing once it is deleted in Production

Sap Gurus,
Is there any automated way to delete the users from development and testing once it is has been deleted from production. i.e. when the administrator deletes the user from production after logging in then it should automatically delete the users from testing and development without logging on in these 2 systems (development and testing). Can anyone help me in resolving this issue.
I am very much thankful in advance..
Regards,
Kali

Rob,
Ok, you are right in that way I can allow only that person but I have to allow 2 persons at this time. i.e. If at all I have to allow one more person also how should I do it, and also what if the person uses different passwords in development and testing?
Thanks for your response Rob.
Kali.

Oracle Retail Products Installation and Implementation

Can individual modules like Oracle Retail Allocation be used as standalone Products, without installing Oracle RMS?
The following point is mentioned in the Oracle® Retail Merchandising Implementation Guide Release 13.2.4 E28940-01
"RMS owns virtually all of the information that Oracle Retail Allocation needs to operate and the information that Oracle Retail Allocation provides is of primary interest/use for RMS. As a result Oracle Retail Allocation has limited interaction with other Oracle Retail Merchandising Operations Management applications. For Oracle Retail Merchandising
Operations Management applications that Oracle Retail Allocation does interact with it is managed through direct reads from Oracle Retail Merchandising Operations Management application tables, direct calls to Oracle Retail Merchandising Operations Management packages, and Oracle Retail Allocation packages based on Oracle Retail Merchandising Operations Management application tables."
So, for implementing Oracle Retail Allocation, is Oracle RMS mandatory?

My understanding is yes.
The text you provided indicates that Allocations does not directly communicate with other modules, such as SIM, but instead does so via RMS. When you install RMS without Alloc, you actually get a lot of the database tables & DB package code for Alloc. This gives some indication as to the level of dependency that Alloc has on having RMS installed.

Migrate BI+ Workspace content between production and test (S9203)

Is there an (easy) solution to migrate contents between production and test in BI+ Workspace S9.2.9.0.3? I know I could extract the contents and then just import but that way I lose the object permissions. BI+ migration utility only supports migrations from older versions and not between the same version.

That isn't a problem, if you do it this way:
have all your environment specific configurations (e.g. translation.com password and connector data) in OSGI configuration nodes in the repository.
Use runmodes to pin certain configurations to a certain runmode.
Have dedicated runmodes for PROD and for TEST
In that case you could update your TEST environment like this:
Restore the instance from PROD backup
Change the runmode definition in the start script
Start it up.

Production and Test Servers

What is purpose of having a test and production servers ? in devlopment for example ... exactly what is the scenarion of making a benifit of them?
is there in interaction between the two servers?

i need to know why we have a test serverThe test server is mainly used to test the deployoment script which are developed by the development team and do proper functional/testing after you apply patches.
how a test server and why its used during implementation ? only for batching?To verify the setup during the implmentation and to test the patches (usually, there is a separate instance to test the patches, and once the patches are applied successfully it will be promoted to the test server for testing before it goes to production).
and what things i can not do to the production be4 i test them?If all the testing is done successfully on the test instance, it goes to UAT instance (for another testing) before it goes to production. For production, just make sure you have a valid backup before you patch the instance or move any setup.
and if iam to clone a prod to test ....is it a backup only?Run preclone on production, copy/restore the files to the test server and run postclone on the test instance -- I believe you are aware of the cloning docs.
and another thing after the cloning will they have the same instance name?No, production name is usually PROD and test instances is usually called TEST.
Thanks,
Hussein

Hi,
There are few tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files in the system, how to know which one are effective? If I change tnsnames.ora hostname entry, do I need to change listerner.ora file also?
Thanks.
Regard,
Kenneth.tnsnames.ora is used only by client processes. listner.ora is used only to configure the listener, and that is a server side issue only. In addition, the listener can start without any listener.ora at all, using all default values. See my discussion of tns issues at edstevensdba.wordpress.com
If you are using dbcontrol, you will most likely need to reconfigure it, using the emca utility.

Virtualization for development and test

Hello,
I was wondering what virtualization technologies other software developers (or Apple) recommend/use for software development? I understand that Mac OS X itself needs to be run on Apple hardware, which means an Xserve or Mac Pro. Aside from purchasing the hardware, what else needs to be done to set up multiple virtual machines for development and testing purposes?
Thanks in advance for any responses.
Regards,

What about for product support? My employer uses thin client terminals to provide engineers with access to BSD, Linux, Solaris, Windows, etc... environments hosted on a VM server. I would think doing something similar for OS X would help keep costs down for the support department.
I don't know all the details, and how it would work, but one thing you could look into would be using Net Boot from and OS X Server. The last time I went in to the Apple Store, they were using that. Basically, they hook your computer up via ethernet and boot from an OS on their server that they know is good (no bad third party kexts, strange drivers, and so on).
It looked pretty slick. I don't remember if they could load different OS versions, though. On the other hand, I could see it being a problem, if what you were testing trashed the networking, since it uses ethernet.

How do you use a SOA Composite after you have deployed it and tested it?

I have created a SOA Composite application, deployed it with no problems, and tested and it works. However I am having trouble finding info on what to do next. I really would like to know how to use this SOA Composite application in a web application. I am trying to create an interface that would use the SOA composite. Any links to help would be greatly appreciated.
This is the only help I have found so far, http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28271_01/fusionapps.1111/e15524/uc_bpel_bc.htm

Hi,
It's a web service call, you go to EM get the WSDL and with it you generate the webservice client for your web application... By calling the web service you will be starting the composite...
