Program to regenerate user variants for dynamic date selection!

Hello all:
We upgraded to ECC6.0 from 4.6C and there are some variants that user created in 4.6C in which they set dates like date = date - 1day something like that (basically dynamic date selection). These variants are not working in ECC6.0 unless the user clicks on the variant button and resaves it!! Does anyone know if there is any SAP program that I can run that does this automatically? Rewards assured.
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply Rob. We already ran RSVARDOC_610! Is there any specific program just for the issue I am having?
Thanks.

Program to collect user u2013 transaction execution data for past period

Hi Experts
We are developing a program to collect user u2013 transaction execution data for past period ( 3 months-1 year ). We are getting required User and Tcode output but unable to find exact count per tcode ( executed by respective user).
We have following count components available in SAPWL_WORKLOAD_GET_STATISTIC / SWNC_COLLECTOR_GET_AGGREGATES
COUNT , DCOUNT ( Dialog count for transaction ) , UCOUNT , BCOUNT , ECOUNT, SCOUNT ,LUW_COUNT .
Out of which LUW_COUNT -Logical Units of Work comes close to no ot time transaction was executed but itu2019s even not the exact count as one transaction code can have more than one LUW .
Does anyone have idea about how to get the right count .
Thanks
Vani

If audit log is enabled in SM19 for transaction criteria all, you can get the transaction history executed by the users. But may need more space on audit file system if this is enabled for all users. May be you can archive once in 3 months into ZIP files and can unzip whenever you need.

BMBC Dynamic Date selection Variant

Hello Team,
I want to create variant in BMBC -Batch Information Cockpit with Dynamic Date Selection. But it do not find the screen the to set-up variant attributes
This is the field where I want to have dynamic date selection, 1st Day of the month to Last day of the month.
Field name and program
I am using SE80
As you can see screen number 0100 is not showing up. and I have gone though all available screen but i could not find the field.
Please advise if dynamic date selection for this field is possible at all or there is other way.
Thanks

I don't think that it is possible to have dynamic date selection here. The whole selection screen is just dynamic, it has only place holders and you define in customizing which field is on the selection screen.
You actually save a selection variant via this extra big button for selection variants, which is quite different to the disc icon where you usually save your selection variants and where you have the option to define dynamic date fields.

Internationalization for dynamic data

HI ..i want to know how to do internationalization for dynamic data that is from database...
Please let me know
Thanks in advance

HI
You can do the trick by extending ResourceBundle (or ListResourceBundle) and write your own handleGetObject and getKeys method.
But in that case you are forced to create different classes for different locales and follow the naming convention for bundles:
If your class for the default locale is MyResourceBundle, then for all the other locales you have to create a class called "MyResourceBundle_"+localeName .
But I don't know how can I bypass this strange behaviour. All the getBundle, and getBundleImpl methods are static. So if a framework call your class through ResourceBundle.getBundle() static method you are forced to do this. If you want to change you have to call your class. So you need to instantiate your ResuorceBundle class yourself.

Sample routine for dynamic flatfile selection in infopackage?

hello guys,
I tried to find one sample routine for Dynamic Flatfile selection at Infopackage level in forums,internet...but couldnot find it....(something like....we give one flatfile everyday...process chain runs everday...and whenever Infopackage executes...it selects that days flatfile basing on date or something and loads the data)....
can anyone give that sample routine ?
Thanks,
Rgards,
S

Hi,
You can select the dynamic flat file using routine at info package.
The routine here is to create dynamic file name, click the routine button beside the name of flat file.
create name and write the related code.
Eg: concatenate 'D:\BIFLATFILES\PRODUCTDATA_' SY-DATUM '.CSV' INTO P_FILENAME.
In this path you have to paste your file with name PRODUCTDATA_09.10.2009.CSV.
So if it is daily load we need change the file name with that date.Infopackage automatically picks up this file and loads the data.
Based on your requirement you need to change the code to select file with path.
Thanks,
Joseph

How to Run std program with a specific variant for specific user?

Hi guys
We have a std program which will be run by different users in the company. Now the requirement is to make sure that each user runs the report with a specific varaint. Can we control this if yes how?
one options we thought about was to create a transaction in SE93 and define the program to run with a predefined varaint and assign the new custom tcode to the user profile. But we have many different users and we will end up with creating many transactions which we would like to avoid. Is there any other option to control the std program such that each user can run the program only with a pre-defined varaint and the one which only the user is suppoed to run. thanks in advance.

We have a std program which will be run by different users in the company. Now the requirement is to make sure that each user runs the report with a specific varaint. Can we control this if yes how
you can do this..
You can create a Custom table
userid keyfield
program keyfield
variant keyfield
programdesc
Make the table Maintaintable(usnig table maintenance )
Now create another Program
It takes input of the Program name( using selection screen)
LOGIC
in side that place a logic ,
Based on the user name and program name Get the variant name from above table
Now Submit the program with the variant you have selected above.
Use Variant Addition when you use SUBMIT
So now program executed based on user variant.
Now you create a Transaction for this program.
When use Runs the Transaction , user needs to input the Program name which he wants to execute.
and Output will be shown based on the variants

Variant with Dynamic Date Calculation

I have a variant that includes a dynamic date calculation. I'm using the Current day -1 date calculation. Does the dynamic date calcuation use the time zone of the system or the time zone designated on the user id for the calcuation?

time zone of the system.. if you want to use the user time use Sy-timlo

User exit for additional data B for sale order item .

Hi., all
my client requirement is
( This business requirement will make the Last Price for a given item be visible during order entry. )
u2022Retrieve & display during order entry, the most recent unit price given to a customer for a specific item, from the Billing data.
. Display the Last Price under Additional Data B Screen
add new field (last extended price) in additional data b screen.
after that 1.     Using the Sales Order Material Number (VBAP-MATNR), Sales Order Sales Organization (VBAK-VKORG), Sales Order Distribution Channel (VBAK-VTWEG), Sales Order Division (VBAK-SPART), Sales Order Sold-to Number (VBPA-KUNNR for VBPA-PARVW=u2019AGu2019) to access the Billing Items By Material Index Table (VRPMA) and specify a billing date (VRPMA-FKDAT) of less than 60 days from current Sales Order requested delivery date (if specified at header VBAK-VDATU or at the schedule line level (VBEP-EDATU). This will result in all the billing documents where the Sold-to bought the item but isnu2019t completely refined as of yet. Retain the billing document (VRPMA-VBELN), item (VBPMA-POSNR), and billing date (VRPMA-FKDAT) in a temporary table to pass to number 2 as the input.
2.     Use the billing document (VRPMA-VBELN) and item (VRPMA-POSNR) to read the Sales Document Partners Table (VBPA) where the partner function (VBPA-PARVW = u201CSHu201D) and the Sales Order Ship-To (VBPA-KUNNR for VBPA-PARVW=u2019WEu2019) to select ONLY billing documents that are for that given ship-to location. This filters out only billing documents relevant for that ship-to location.
3.     From the resulting list of billing documents, select the most recent date (VRPMA-FKDAT) which will refine the search for the last Billing Document (VRPMA-VBELN) and item (VRPMA-POSNR).
4.     Using the most recent Billing Document (VBPA-VBELN), access the Billing Document Item Table (VBRP). To result in the Last Extended Price as VBRP-KZWI1.
5.     This price will be an extended price which needs to be calculated as a u2018unit priceu2019. For this billing item, select the sales unit (VBRP-VRKME) to determine if the sales unit is in cases or eaches.
a.     If the unit of measure is in cases, then simple math is required to divide the Last Extended Price (VBRP-KZWI1) by the billing quantity (VBRP-FKIMG). Standard rounding should apply when .005 results in a .01.
how to achive this ?

Hi Chakravarthy,
use the Exits provided in SAPMV45A -includes MV45*ZZ and screen exits as well 8309 8310 8459, 8460. Just be sure to
use zznnnnnn include in the SAP provided forms instead of coding directly in the forms.
You can check below user exits:
MV45ATZZ :For entering metadata for sales document processing. User-specific metadata must start with "ZZ".
MV45AOZZ:
For entering additional installation-specific modules for sales document processing which are called up by the screen and run under PBO (Process Before Output) prior to output of the screen. The modules must start with "ZZ".
MV45AIZZ:
For entering additional installation-specific modules for sales document processing. These are called up by the screen and run under PAI (Process After Input) after data input (for example, data validation). The modules must start with "ZZ".
MV45AFZZ and MV45EFZ1:
For entering installation-specific FORM routines and for using user exits, which may be required and can be used if necessary. These program components are called up by the modules in MV45AOZZ or MV45AIZZ.

Dynamic date selection in variants

Dear Experts ,
I require to make the dynamic selection for a date range in a particular report as under :
From Date : Current date - 90 days
To date : Current date - 60 days
How can i achieve this in the variant ?
Regards
Anis

this is an example on making a date field dynamic for transaction MICN, it is the same way for other transactions
Create a variant by saving your selection.
after clicking the save button, you are in the screen fro variant attributes.
enter variant name and desciption
Find the fields GIDAT and GBDAT.
If you plan to run it e.g. every monday. then the monday will be your start date GIDAT and the next Sunday your to-date GBDAT.
select GIDAT and find the column for selection variable, press F4 in that field and select D for dynamic selection.
Then find field name of variable, press F4 and select current date.
select GBDAT and find the column for selection variable, press F4 in that field and select D for dynamic selection.
Then find field name of variable, press F4 and select current date +x days. then enter 7 in the pop-up.

User exit for dynamic layout determination

Hello,
I would to know user exit name for dynamic layout determination for output type of Invoice and Order confirmation.
My user exit should get fired when user press the print preview button in VF03/VA03.
Regards,
Vimal Nair

Hi
I dont' think you need a user exit, but you should manage that directly in print program.
Infact you can choose which output type has to be or not to be loaded in a document by an user exit.
But only in print program you can know if the user has choosen print or print preview.
So check in TNAPR which print program are used for orders or invoice and change them or, if they are std program, you can copy them before changing them.
After calling the sapscript (fm OPEN_FORM) or smartform you can know if user press printpreview by reading the structure of export (like ITCPP for example).

Build field catalog for dynamic data objects

Hi
Could you please tell me how to build a field catalog (ooops alv) for an internal table which is a dynamic data object.
TYPES: BEGIN OF t_addsubty,
         subty TYPE subty,
         pernr TYPE persno,
         END OF t_addsubty.
TYPES: ty_addsubty type t_addsubty occurs 1.
i have data object using these
        CREATE DATA dref3 TYPE (g_type1).
        ASSIGN dref3->* TO <fs_dp>.
where g_type1 refers a data type which i defined in the program. g_type1 = ty_addsubty.
now <fs_dp> refers to an internal table.
now i want to build a field catalog for this internal table.
In my program <fs_dp> structure is not always the same. i.e now it is ty_addsubty but for some other conditions the structure is different.
please help me out.

Scheduling WebI reports for Dynamic Date Ranges

Hello Everyone,
Our Env is BOBJ XI 3.1 SP2 FP2.5 integrated with SAP NW BW 7.02 EPH1
We are trying to schedule few WebI reports which can be used on ad-hoc basis as well. Some reports need to get data from starting of the month to today (like MTD) and few are with dynamic date ranges.
In case of relational universes i used to do Magic Date as mentioned here : http://www.dagira.com/2008/07/21/using-a-magic-date-value-in-prompts
But for OLAP Universes i have written a MDX filter prompt as :
<FILTER KEY= "@Select(Debit Memo Date\Debit Memo Date LOV)">
<CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION= "Between">
<CONSTANT CAPTION= "IIF (@Prompt('Enter\Select DM Start Date: ','D','First day of Current Month\First day of Current Month',mono,free,not_persistent,{'First Day of Month'},,User:0)='First Day of Month','First day of Current Month\First day of Current Month',@Prompt('Enter\Select DM Start Date: ','D','First day of Current Month\First day of Current Month',mono,free,not_persistent,{'First Day of Month'},,User:0))"/>
<CONSTANT CAPTION= "IIF (@Prompt('Enter\Select DM End Date: ','D','Date2\Today',mono,free,not_persistent,{'Today'},,User:0) > '1/1/2100 12:00:00 AM',''1/1/2010 12:00:00 AM'',(@Prompt('Enter\Select DM End Date: ','D','Date2\Today',mono,free,not_persistent,{'Today'},,User:0))"/>
</CONDITION>
</FILTER>
We are getting MDX erros because IIF can only return numeric values. So are there any other approaches for dynamically scheduling the reports or can the above MDX prompt be modified to make it work ?

Ingo,
When we schedule the WEBI report we use the BEX query with a variable based on a customer Exit .
There are good examples in
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/profile/Surendra+Reddy
In order to avoid providing a hard coded date restriction in the BEX query we want to have a flexible date range solution (e.g. data from 1.1.2011 until yesterday).
Is the folloing scenario possible:
Scheduled webi report with a hard coded date e.g. 1.1.1900 (for the BEX variable)
The BEX query should return the data from 1.1.2011 until yesterday (dynamically) if date = 1.1.1900
else it should return the data (for the e.g. adhoc reporting)
Is a customer exit like this possible ?
Pseudo code:
IF date = 1.1.900 then return sysdate-1 else return entered date
For a relational universe I always used a magic date condition

User exit for component data in ME21n/ME22n

Hello,
I have a requirement to issue an error message if a component quantity is not evenly divisible by the end item quantity. The component data (BOM) is entered after clicking the components button on ME21n/ME22n at the item level detail. I need to evaluate the data after a user clicks save, but I cannot find a user exit where the data is passed into, or where it is defined as global data where I can reference it in a user exit. The data is stored on the screen in structure MDPM and stored in the database in table RESB.
I appreciate any help,
David

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
I was able to put my code in EXIT_SAPMM06E_012 and retrieve the component data through (SAPLEINK)XMDPM[]
Below is the code I used to assign the data to be able to evaluate it.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <z_mdpm_x> TYPE ANY.
DATA: i_mdpm_x TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF MDPM_X.
Fetching Component data
ASSIGN ('(SAPLEINK)XMDPM[]') to <z_mdpm_x>.
CHECK sy-subrc = 0.
Assigning data into an internal table
i_mdpm_x[] = <z_mdpm_x>.
CHECK i_mdpm_x[] IS NOT INITIAL.
