Purchase Requsition Data Source

Dear Consultants,
I want to extract Purchase Requsition Data from R/3 System.
But I couldn't find any data source in the R/3 system.
Is there a standart data source for this?
Best Regards
Mehmet

There is no standard datasource; go in LBWE and include in your transfer structure (of 2LIS_02_SCL)
MCEKET-BANFN (Purch.req.) and
MCEKET-BNFPO (Requisn.item).
These two fields allow to access on the key of EBAN table...here you can find FRGDT field that is release date...
In the same datasource you can also already find as available the field MCEKKO-EKGRP (Purch. group from T024).
Hope it helps.
Regards

Standard Purchase Order Data Source question

Hi,
I have read the documentation discussing how to create data definitions. They all say make sure that the code is the short name of the concurrent request. However I noticed when I look at the Standard Purchase Order Data Source's code it has is PO_STANDARD_PO which seems to match the XML Schema PO_STANDARD_PO.xsd how is the concurrent request initiated at runtime?
Thanks,
Mark

If you go to the XML administrator screen and lookup the definition of the XML page and what program it is associated to as a start. From memory, i believe that the Definition of the Print PO concurrent job is where the output is required in order for the PO to be printed in the XML format.

Purchase requsition date

Purchase requistion data source

Hi All,
I got one requirement extracting data from purchase requistion to build the report with fields lead time analysis for set of PR.
Lead time analysis for PRs converted to RFQ and from RFQ to PO.
Source list maintained for the material and plant combination for set of PRs.
MPN data for the material and plant combination for set of PRs.
please tell me the datasource where i can get the fields.
Thanks,
AnnamA

Hello ,
There is NO Standard Data Source to Extract PR data.
You need to create a Generic Data Source on EBAN Table.

Purchase requistition data source

Hi
Is there any standard datasource for Purchase Requistition?
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.

Praveen,
I do have a requirement to create an extractor on Purchase requisition.
This is really a nice document that exactly explains the process involved for creating a generic extractor with Delta queue mechanism.
But this document explains creating a View on EBKN (Purchase Requisition Account Assignment) and I do have a requirement on table EBAN (Purchase Requisition).
So do I need to create a View just on this table EBAN or do I have to do on both separately for pulling changes on both these tables and use the same BTE (01000710 APO-PlugIn: Purchase requisition)?
Really appreciate if you could throw some light on this.
thanks

hi experts,
here is my client requirement.
The Purchasing department needs the possibility to make analysis on Purchasing data. E.g. to support the purchasing department in negotiations with the vendors. They must be able make analysis on
material,
vendor,
quantity invoiced,
quantity received,
values (price) in both document currency and local currency.
The bust be able the see the price u201CPB00 Gross Priceu201D and all Pricing Elements to the be able to see the real cost of the purchased material e.g. u201CFRC1 Freight/Quantityu201D
through which data source i can get the Quantities and values, and from which table i can get the KSCHL so that i can enhance to my data source.
in sdn i have seen KSCHL from KONV table. if that is the table can you plz specify the data source and logic to meet my requirements.

Hi Venugopal,
The Datasource that you need to enhance would definitely be 2LIS_02_ITM.
To fetch the gross price you can use the below mentioned logic:
DATA: l_t_MC02M_0ITM LIKE MC02M_0ITM OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE,
      wa_MC02M_0ITM LIKE LINE OF l_t_MC02M_0ITM,
      tp_KBETR LIKE KONV-KBETR,
      tp_KPOSN LIKE KONV-KPOSN,
      tp_KNUMV LIKE EKKO-KNUMV.
LOOP AT C_T_DATA INTO wa_MC02M_0ITM.
      CLEAR tp_KBETR.
      CLEAR tp_KPOSN.
      CLEAR tp_KNUMV.
      tp_KPOSN = wa_MC02M_0ITM-EBELP.
      SELECT SINGLE
      KNUMV
      INTO tp_KNUMV
      FROM EKKO
      WHERE EBELN EQ wa_MC02M_0ITM-EBELN.
*     Select query to Fetch the Gross Price (KBETR) for a PO
      SELECT SINGLE
      KBETR
      INTO tp_KBETR
      FROM KONV
      WHERE KNUMV EQ tp_KNUMV AND
            KPOSN EQ tp_KPOSN AND
            KSCHL LIKE 'PB%'.
      IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
        wa_MC02M_0ITM-YYKBETR = tp_KBETR.
        MODIFY C_T_DATA FROM wa_MC02M_0ITM.
      ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
You may still want to check with the functional person for the exact logic.

Regarding: Loading data from R/3 To BI for a Generic Data source

Hi Every,
Need Help Urgent
I had created a Generic data source with function Module as the data source, in Rsa3 it is working fine.
1-> I had replicated the data source to Bi then i had created a info package and then I executed the same. when it is getting the data and it is show in the request monitor (Number of records ) but the status is not changing from Yellow to Green.
Status in Step by step analysis is every step is green Except "Data selection successfully finished ?" (RED)
2-> Then I had seen the Back ground job in Source system which is executing still. I waited for it for a long time but nearly 30 min.
(I had done Steps one and 2 number of time by activating replicating the data source and so on, but still their is no change in it)
3-> Then I had canceled that back ground job with the help of BASIS (as i feel that it is something going wrong).
4-> I feel that their is some thing wrong in the Code of Extractor.
Please Help...............

Increase performance in a multiple data source report

Post Author: ArturoFromPeru
CA Forum: General
Hi everybody.
I have a big problem, when i make a report that have multiple data sources the performance decrease considerably, i still don't know the reason. Is it true that using multiple data sources is too slow?.
I tell you a fact: I made the report connecting via "Field Definition File", and it take at least 2 minutes to show itself but it only have 170 records, and i'm very sure that the sql statements to each data source were executed very faster.
I even heard about index, but i think they only are useful when i connect directly to the database.
All my partner told me, that Cristal Report
Thanks you in advance

Thanks you, but I explain better what i was doing.
I've made a report called "Kardex de Producto" which show the behavior of the products according to its sales, purchases.
The end result which is showed by the report is correct. I used three data source in the report, so links between each table is correct. The only problem i have is the performance because i still don't know why is too slow. In fact the sql statement is very heavy, but i think it doesn't matter to the report because when it takes the data from the database (connecting via Field Definition File) even if the very heavy sql statement returns twenty record Cristal Report must show itself very quickly. I don't want to believe that Cristal Report is very slow when it works with multiple data sources.
Do you mind if i give you my report? if not please leave me your email address.

Using 2 web services data sources in the same report

I've been trying unsuccesffuly to use 2 web services data sources in a report. The main report accesses the first web service to get job summary information. 3 fields are are passed as parameters to a sub-report and used as parameters for the sub-report selection. Each report works fine independently, but when I link them together the subreport alway fails to retrieve data.

Please re-post if this is still an issue or purchase a case and have a dedicated support engineer work with you directly:

Crystal Report 2011- SAP Data Sources: CL - no items found

Background:
SAP ECC 6.0 was purchased three years ago with DSD package. Only FI and SD modules are in use. Accounts download data filesfrom SAP to produce spreadsheet reports. Few user trust these numbers. We are setup as "SAP in the Cloud" model- Listening to constant user complaints, it seems SAP is broken. Interim solution: Crystal Report for everyone.
Encouraged by Ingo Hilgefort papers and Crystal Report Forum:
We decided to deploy Crystal Report 2011 and Business Object XI 3.1 with SP4 for our small user community. These software are installed on local XP laptop and Business Object XI 3.1 installed in the SAP server as well.
Problem Description:
The desktop user cannot see SAP infosets or tables contents. When connect to the data sources. After user login, she can navigate to expand the data source CL.- displays "no items found ". I can reproduce this error. Using the Crystal Report wizard and selecting various data sources such as: SAP Table, Cluster and Functions: CL, DD and FN category only DD and FN display items.
Current Environment: SAP in the Cloud.
SAP Server::ECC 6.0 EhP3 dual stack. Database MSSQL, OS 2008 Server, Business Object Intergration Kit 3.1, Remote Acces VPN.
Desktop Environment: Crystal Report 2011: SP1, Business Object Xi 3.1, XP SP3
Surprise: Clicking on either DD and FN tab inside the connector window in Crystal- it expands and displays tables and content reference but not CL.
Questions: Do we have to move to EhP5 for the CRX 2011 to work ? What is wrong: ? Any help will be appreciated?
This question is for Ingo H. How to convince SAP hosting company otherwise to solve our problem ? Is is desktop problem or Host side configuration ?

Ahmad
K900687 is Open SQL Connectivity transport and required for direct SAP tables connectivity, so you need it, but I am not sure if the warning message relevant to your problem. Sometimes warning is just a warning.
You can see other objects in DD, but not in CL, it means the connection works. You probably do not have required authorisations to see objects.
I would suggest to review the Authorisation section of SAP Integration Kit Installation Guide here:
[http://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700000559912010E/xi31_sp3_bip_sap_inst_en.pdf ]
You may also check what is the differences between DD and CL in terma of authorizations.
If you think CR 2011 is broken, then test CR 2008. Is still available for free 30-days trial download here:
[http://www12.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/sme/freetrials/index.epx]
, but you would need to add SAP Integration Kit to it.

Purchase Requisition Date is not updated with Scheduleline Delivery Date

Hi,
This is a third part Sales Scenario. The Delivery date on the schedule line is passed on to purchase requisition as the delivery date of that item. Due to some business requirement, the delivery date of the schedule line is changed just before saving the sales order in the BADI called through the userexit userexit_save_document_prepare. Now on saving the sales order, the purchase requsition is also created.The delivery date of the schedule line is changed but has not reflected on the Purchase Requision.
If the Sales Order is opened in VA02 and the schedule line delivery date is modified, the Purchase Requisition delivery date is also getting modified.
Why did it not happen at the time of saving the Sales Order.
What is the structure into which the purchase requsition information is stored, so that on processing the sales order, this information is utilized to create the purchase requsition.
Please help.

Hi,
Check the following table for the mentioned fields EBAN-BADAT and EBAT-FRGDT

Issue with Crystal Report based on 2 different data sources

Hi there,
I am having a frustrating problem with a report I've designed and I'm hoping someone might be able to assist please.
The report has 3 different prompts, each of which is based on a dynamic list of values retrieved via views within a SQL server db.
We are wanting to introduce the use of Universes as much as possible, so the data returned is based off a BO Universe data source query.
I have uploaded the report into BO and have provided the necessary database logon information for the report (in the "Process" > "Database" settings in the CMC) for both the direct db datasource connection (for the views) and the BO Universe query connection.
When the report is run however, the report still prompts for the database user name & password credentials. I have triple checked my db connection settings, and also have "Use same database logon as when report is run" set to true. I also tested a cut-down version of the report without the Universe connection with the same db logon credentials I provided and there was no credentials prompt when it was run, proving those values are accepted.
Does anyone know why this is happening & if there is a way around it? Alternatively, is there some way that a report prompt may be based on a dynamic list of values retrieved via a Universe connection? This way I'd be able to remove the db connection for the views and have the report solely based on the Universe.
Another issue that occurs is out of the 3 prompts, a user can select a User Name OR Number, and also must select a Period. However if the User Name or Number is left blank the message "The value is not valid" is shown. So I tried a cut-down version of the report with only the BO Universe as a data source (static prompts) and this didn't occur, i.e. I was allowed to leave either the User Name or Number empty.
I hope this all of makes sense - let me know if not. If anyone is able to help out with any of this it would be very much appreciated.
Cheers,
Marco

Populating a subform from a data source.

I understand that the help file in LiveCycle Designer describes the procedure for connecting fields in a form to columns in a data base. I have tried for several days now to populate simple customer information (name, address, state, zip, phone, fax) from a data base.
I have exported the data into an acess database, created the dsn, created the data connection, an secured the database. I am still getting an error message that says "Connection for Source Data Connection failed because the environment is not trusted." I am trying everything I can think of to create the proper combination of user-level security for the database and proper use of the "connection string", but now I have read in the forums that even upon success of this effort, my fellow employees will not be able to use the form properly unless we purchase "Reader Extension Server"
Is there any way to populate customer data in a form, from a data source, that is compatible with Reader, without buying "extension server"
Thank you in advance for your support.

Here is a quote from the LiveCycle Designer 7.0 Help file
OLEDB is the only database connection that you can connect to from Designer. Through the use of the Microsoft OLEDB Provider for ODBC Drivers, you can also access databases identified by the ODBC data source name (DSN). You can use OLE drivers other than the Microsoft OLEDB Provider for ODBC, however the form must be certified in Acrobat before it will function at run time.
In Acrobat, security concerns dictate that you cannot specify an ODBC connection string by using the Driver=; syntax. Therefore, the client computer needs a DSN configured for ODBC connections.
If you are using external data sources in a form design that you want users to fill in Adobe Reader, you must set
usage rights for the form by using Reader Extensions Server.
Unfortunately it looks like a direct DB connection requires Reader Extensions. Fortunately you can get Reader Extensions pretty cheap from
FormRouter.
As an alternative you can submit the data to a server script (like ASP) and have it write into the Database. There are plenty of sources for writing ASP for PDF files. Just do a search on this forum, or on the web in general.

10g Reports issue with XML Data Source

Hi,
Has anybody ever encountered an issue with Oracle 10g report using an XML as the data source? What happens is, some of the values in the XML are printed to the wrong column.
One of the elements in our XML file is a complex type with 10 elements under it. The first 5 are picked up properly, but the last 6 are not. Elements #6 to #9 has a minimum occurence of 0. What happens is when element #6 is present, but #7 is, the value for element #7 is passed on to element #6.
The XSD and XSL files are both valid since the reports were working when we were still using 9i. There is no hidden logic in the report which might cause this issue to come up, i.e., the report just picks up the values from the XML and prints it to the appropriate columns.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
