11.5.10 Step by Step - Run istore from local machine for customization
Hello,
Does anyone have step by step instructions on using JDeveloper to run iStore JSPs on local machine with the end goal to customize JSPs? We have 11.5.10. I am using JDeveloper 9.0.3.5. Have tried following steps per lot of metalink notes but none seem to be working. Need to know exactly:
- what Jdeveloper version to use for 11.5.10?
- Where to download this version from?
- Is it even possible to run iStore from local Windows machine using JDeveloper?
- What is the main iStore page that should be run the 1st time?
- Any expert available in USA for a 2 week paid assignment to help our team setup Jdeveloper for customization? And give intro lessons?
Much Help...
Thanks1. The Jdeveloper you use with 11.5.10 will depend on which ATG patch level you are at (see metalink note 416708.1)
2. It will be in a metalink patch (see metalink note 4167708.1)
3. I don't believe you can run it locally on a windows machine.
4. Can't remember it off the top of my head but I will look back in my notes, I'm no longer working at the client site who has iStore.
5. I know of 3 or 4 experts that I have worked with in Canada on JDeveloper/iStore/Configurator, I don't know anyone in the US but there has got to be a bunch out there looking for work.

Customization option available in step-by-step screens of ESS applications
Hi,
Can we customise this standard step-by-step screens of ESS where we have (Overview>Edit>Review & Save --> Confirmation).like in Family memember/Dependents screen, Address change screen etc.
Customize in the sense of removing one of the steps totally if there are no mandatory fields, After removing a step 2, when we click on step 1 next button, does it directly go to step 3 ?
Do we need to import the standard source code through nwdi and make the changes or can they be done using perrsonalisations or configuration.
Sorry for couple of questions, but any info in this regard will be useful.
Regards,
SreeramHi Sreeram,
The steps are a part of a design pattern called Floor Plan Manager (FPM). FPM is not specific to individual components (like Family member or leave request). FPM is a part of global component (XSS). Hence I think it will be difficult to remove a particular step for a particular service. If you still think of doing this, yes you will need NWDI.
Check this for details of each step

TDMS 3.0 for ERP 6.0: step by step procedure for TDSH6 Shell creation
Dear All,
I need to perform shell creation. I have never done this and need help with step by step instructions.
I need to refresh my my development system with a TDMS shell creation from production client in production system.
I am familiar with TDTIM and performed many TDTIM copies. I have gone throught the master and operational guides for TDMS also.
I would try to list down my understanding so far after reading the guides.
Please correct me if I am wrong ang also suggest correct steps.
1. All my three systems (central, sender and receiver) are ready from installation point of with with authorizations and latest SPs.
2. I log into Central/Control system and start a new package "ERP Shell creation package for AP Release higher 4.6 "
3. AS I have never executed this option I do not know what are the stps inside it.
But I assume I should be asked for the source client details from which shell needs to be creates. (000 or pruduction client)
What type of shell : slave or master?
4. During the shell creation from sender system client, is there a downtime for sender system.
5. Once the shell creation is done an export dump will created.
6. I perform all the preprocessing steps of a homogenous system copy on the receiver systems.
7. Stop receiver system, start sapinst database instance installation with homogenous system copy with R3load option.
8. Provide the export dump location to sapinst.
9. After database instance is installed, perform system copy specific post processing steps.
10. Afte the system is ready it has only one client 000 now available in development system and i need to create a new cleint from 000 which will act as my new development cleint.
I request all you experts to please provide your comments at the earliest as activity would be starting from 5th of this month.
Regards,
Prateek.Hi,
Let me answer your questions.
Some queries
1. Is there a downtime for Production system (sender system).
SAP recommends that nothing much should be going on during the export of the Sender(PRoduction) system, but so far i have never encountered an issue doing the export in online mode.
2. Shell creation works on both Production and 000 client or only Production client,
Be carefull!!! - A Shellcreation is a normal Homogenous Systemcopy using R3load. You will create a 'new' system with the DDIC and clientindependent customization of the Sender system. ALL former data of the target system will be deleted.
You mention that you will refresh a development system that way. Please be aware of the implications that a development refresh contains. That said. After the refresh you will have the 000 client and parts (users ... authorizations of sonder) of the other clients on the new system.
3. when I import the the dump using sapinst, how many clients are available in receiver systems.
See above. All client configuration will be available, but nearly no data will be in these clients except 000. A manual part of the Shellcreation is to clean up the target system (delete the clients that are not needed) This is a fast process.
4. Soem where in the guide it is mentioned that downtime depends on the type of shell I create.
Kindly suggest should I create a master shell or slave.
Hm. The master shell is just a concept that you create a complete new system and put that system into your transport landscape without filling it with data. You can then use that system as the source for a normal (database dependent) systemcopy without impacting your prod system. The result is a very small copy that can be repeated very often without an impact to prod/QA...
Downtime is as described in point1 not required
5. Once I execute this activity of shell creation for lets say receiver system A, then can I use the same export dump for second receiver system B.
Yes
6. Lastly please suggest the activity execution time as customer has provided us 2 days to execute this activity.
This depends on your knowledge of homogenuous systemcopies and the preparation + some items like size of stxl and other tables that will be exported/imported. If you are very familiar with the systemcopy process using R3Load 2 days are feasable.
I have seen shellcreations done within 1-2 days but also much longer ones!
As a prerequisite i would always recommedn to have the latest R3* + migmon exe available on sender + target.
I hope i have clarified some of your items.
Best Regards

Customizing the Wiki sidebar step by step
I'm having severe problems with my Wiki-setup. Frankly the worst Apple-experience in my entire life. When I'm done with this thread, I'm certain that a lot of other people will have an easier time configuring a custom sidebar in their own Wiki. At the moment, I'm lost.
*Apple has posted this: "Extending your wiki server"*
http://images.apple.com/server/macosx/docs/ExtendingYour_WikiServer.pdf
Which has a chapter on page 18-23 that takes ut step by step towards a custom wiki sidebar.
This guide is poorly written and takes an abstract approach towards helping the user, in this case, poor me. To summarize:
As far as I know, the relevant files are stored at
*/Library/Application\ Support/Apple/WikiServer*
(themes, wikicontent and such)
And some files at
/Library/WebServer/Documents
(index file that points towards the correct wiki-dir)
*------ QUOTE: ------*
Creating Sidebars
If you haven’t created a sidebar before, it might be easier to customize an example
sidebar to suit your needs.
In the wireframe theme’s theme.plist file, there is a sidebars section that contains an
array of sidebars you can customize:
<key>sidebars</key>
<array>
<dict>
sidebar keys and values
</dict>
<dict>
sidebar keys and values
</dict>
</array>
*------ END QUOTE: ------*
*I assume...*
That "the wireframe themes theme.plist file" is this file:
/Library/Application Support/Apple/WikiServer/Themes/wireframe.wikitheme
Later down, at page 23, there is a part named *Using the Example Sidebars*
*------ QUOTE: ------*
The wireframe theme’s theme.plist file includes several sidebar examples. All of these
examples are commented out by default. You’ll need to remove the comments marks if
you want to use the example sidebars as custom sidebars. If you don’t add any custom
sidebars, the default sidebars are used. If you use at least one custom sidebar, the
default sidebars don’t appear.
Consider commenting out all sidebars you don’t want to use, and leaving
uncommented all sidebars you want to use. Doing this allows you to choose which
sidebars you want and allows you to easily change sidebar settings later on. To do this,
you must start a comment before the <dict> tag for a sidebar, and end the comment
after the </dict> tag for that sidebar.
*------ END QUOTE: ------*
Do I understand this right? I may just edit this file and it will show up on all my Wiki's? What if I want different sidebars on my different Wiki's? Guess different sidebars should be an easy thing to fix, so I doubt the change is made in this file - which gets me thinking, why do I need to edit this file at all? Well.. Let's do it anyway:
*The original file: /Library/Application Support/Apple/WikiServer/Themes/wireframe.wikitheme/themes.plist*

OK, so I'll edit the file according to the manual. 1: Remove the comment marks because I want to use the exampe sidebars as custom sidebars. And add a custom sidebar so that the default sidebar will not appear.
*Edited version example, according to documentation of file: /Library/Application Support/Apple/WikiServer/Themes/wireframe.wikitheme/themes.plist*

Then, to make the changes take effect, I use this command re restart the service:
sudo serveradmin stop teams; sudo serveradmin start teams;
I launched Safari and check the website. Theese changes had NO effect on either of the Wiki's. Which is actually a good result because I want to controll this for each wiki. But there is no documentation about how to do this
Back to the drawingboard....
Well, since I should be able to to control this separately for each wiki maybe I should try to edit the theme.plist file located inside one of the specific themes? Such as one of theese, located at /Library/Application Support/Apple/WikiServer/Themes/
block.green.banner.wikitheme obsidian.blue.banner.wikitheme
block.green.wikitheme horizon.blue.banner.wikitheme obsidian.blue.wikitheme
block.red.banner.wikitheme horizon.blue.wikitheme obsidian.green.banner.wikitheme
block.red.wikitheme horizon.green.banner.wikitheme obsidian.green.wikitheme
float.green.banner.wikitheme horizon.green.wikitheme obsidian.orange.banner.wikitheme
float.green.wikitheme horizon.grey.wikitheme obsidian.orange.wikitheme
float.orange.banner.wikitheme horizon.red.banner.wikitheme
float.orange.wikitheme horizon.red.wikitheme
Well, let's try this.
I'll edit the /Library/Application Support/Apple/WikiServer/Themes/horizon.green.wikitheme/theme.plist file which is from the theme I use for one of my Wikis. Originally, it looks like this:
*------ QUOTE: ------*

I'll run this command once again: sudo serveradmin stop teams; sudo serveradmin start teams;
I launch Safari and guess what happens! The Wiki has decided to revert to the theme which I choose as the default theme when I installed Mac Os X Leopard Server! It reverted to the Block Green Books theme, and the sidebar is still not changed. If I go via the Wiki's admin interface to rechoose my origional theme, it's become unavailable.
If i change the /Library/Application Support/Apple/WikiServer/Themes/horizon.green.wikitheme/theme.plist back to it's origional state, then run the sudo serveradmin stop teams; sudo serveradmin start teams;
I'm back with a working Wiki, but still no custom sidebar.
No success. Does anybody have any suggestions, please?
I'm crying my eyes out over here :-/Eureka! I found a solution that helped me along the way. I'm now able to add as many Custom Dynamic content in the sidebar as I wish. But I haven't been able to remove "What's hot" and "Upcoming events" yet.
*THIS is how you customize the sidebar in your wiki server running on Mac Os X 10.5 Leopard*
1: When you have a working wiki, use you're Terminal.app to access this dir:
/Library/Collaboration/Groups/[NAME OF YOUR WIKI]
Inside this foldere there is a file named metadata.plist
This file is where you add your content. BUT you MUST do this in the correct order to make it work. This is how:
1. Edit the file and insert content like shown in the example bellow.
2. Save the metadata.plist file and go to the Application Server Admin and restart the webservice Click stop, what until it's stopped, and click start again.
(If your're running the server in simplemode, you just use server preferences and stop and start the webservice again).
3. Run this command in the terminal: sudo serveradmin stop teams; sudo serveradmin start teams;
4. Now you can se that you're changes have been made.
Issues: If you access the wiki via you're browser and you get "internal server error" -It's because the syntax in the metadata.plist file is wrong, so revert to your backup and try again.
If you don't restart the webservice like described in step 2 above, and then try to access the wiki via you're webbrowser, the wiki will overwrite your new settings and you're changes will not be saved.
This is still by far the stupidest undocumented issue I've experienced with Apple. If Steve S knew about this, he would be ashamed
The file shown bellow is not entierly like the one that will work in your wiki, this is because the GUID id unique for every wiki - and our file bellow specifies to use the green theme as well. So instead of copy/paste the file I'm showing here, just modify your own by adding lines like this:
<dict>
<key>displayName</key>
<string>Final Cut Pro</string>
<key>howMany</key>
<string>10</string>
<key>sort</key>
<array>
<string>modifiedDate</string>

<array>
<string>FCP</string>
</array>
<key>type</key>
<string>custom</string>
<key>uid</key>
<string>CustomTagSidebar</string>
</dict>
Look at my file bellow to learn exacly where to place the lines.

Business Add-Ins
Business Add-Ins are a new SAP enhancement technique based on ABAP Objects. They can be inserted into the SAP System to accommodate user requirements too specific to be included in the standard delivery. Since specific industries often require special functions, SAP allows you to predefine these points in your software.
As with customer exits (SMOD/CMOD [Page 40]), two different views are available:
In the definition view, an application programmer predefines exit points in a source that allow specific industry sectors, partners, and customers to attach additional software to standard SAP source code without having to modify the original object.
In the implementation view, the users of Business Add-Ins can customize the logic they need or use a standard logic if one is available.
In contrast to customer exits, Business Add-Ins no longer assume a two-system infrastructure (SAP and customers), but instead allow for multiple levels of software development (by SAP, partners, and customers, and as country versions, industry solutions, and the like). Definitions and implementations of Business Add-Ins can be created at each level within such a system infrastructure.
SAP guarantees the upward compatibility of all Business Add-In interfaces. Release upgrades do not affect enhancement calls from within the standard software nor do they affect the validity of call interfaces. You do not have to register Business Add-Ins in SSCR.
The Business Add-In enhancement technique differentiates between enhancements that can only be implemented once and enhancements that can be used actively by any number of customers at the same time.
In addition, Business Add-Ins can be defined according to filter values. This allows you to control add-in implementation and make it dependent on specific criteria (on a specific Country value, for example). All ABAP sources, screens, GUIs, and table interfaces created using this enhancement technique are defined in a manner that allows customers to include their own enhancements in the standard.
A single Business Add-In contains all of the interfaces necessary to implement a specific task. In Release 4.6A, program and menu enhancements can be made with Business Add-Ins. The actual program code is enhanced using ABAP Objects. In order to better understand the programming techniques behind the Business Add-In enhancement concept, SAP recommends reading the section on ABAP Objects

u can find BADI's in different ways...
1>First go to any transaction->iN THE menu bar SYSTEM->STATUS->Get the program name ->double click->u will go to the program attached to the tcode.Now search term will be CALL CL_EXITHANDLER.Now u will get list of BADI'S available..
2>Goto SE24->Give class name as CL_EXITHANDLER->Display->double click on get_instance mathod->Now u will go inside the method->Now put break point on the cl_exithandler.Now go to any transaction code and pass dat..U will see that it will be stopped on the break point which u set on the cl_exithandler...In the exit name u can find list of badi's attached to the tcode..
There are multiple ways of searching for BADI.
Finding BADI Using CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE
Finding BADI Using SQL Trace (TCODE-ST05).
Finding BADI Using Repository Information System (TCODE- SE84).
1. Go to the Transaction, for which we want to find the BADI, take the example of Transaction VD02. Click on System->Status. Double click on the program name. Once inside the program search for CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE.
Make sure the radio button In main program is checked. A list of all the programs with call to the BADIs will be listed.
The export parameter EXIT_NAME for the method GET_INSTANCE of class CL_EXITHANDLER will have the user exit assigned to it. The changing parameter INSTANCE will have the interface assigned to it. Double click on the method to enter the source code.Definition of Instance would give you the Interface name.
2. Start transaction ST05 (Performance Analysis).
Set flag field "Buffer trace"
Remark: We need to trace also the buffer calls, because BADI database tables are buffered. (Especially view V_EXT_IMP and V_EXT_ACT)
Push the button "Activate Trace". Start transaction VA02 in a new GUI session. Go back to the Performance trace session.
Push the button "Deactivate Trace".
Push the button "Display Trace".
The popup screen "Set Restrictions for Displaying Trace" appears.
Now, filter the trace on Objects:
V_EXT_IMP
V_EXT_ACT
Push button "Multiple selections" button behind field Objects
Fill: V_EXT_IMP and V_EXT_ACT
All the interface class names of view V_EXT_IMP start with IF_EX_. This is the standard SAP prefix for BADI class interfaces. The BADI name is after the IF_EX_.
So the BADI name of IF_EX_CUSTOMER_ADD_DATA is CUSTOMER_ADD_DATA
3. Go to Maintain Transaction (TCODE- SE93).
Enter the Transaction VD02 for which you want to find BADI.
Click on the Display push buttons.
Get the Package Name. (Package VS in this case)
Go to TCode: SE84->Enhancements->Business Add-inns->Definition
Enter the Package Name and Execute.
Here you get a list of all the Enhancement BADIs for the given package MB.
The simplese way for finding BADI is
1. chooes Tcode Program & package for that Tcode.
2. Go to Tcode se18
3. Press F4
4. search by package or by program.

REWARD IF USEFULL
User Exits in FI/CO
by Tami Becker, SAP Platinum Consultant, SAP America, Inc.
Overview
R/3 provides three "customization spots" that allow you to enhance FI/CO features without modifying the standard code. Although often collectively referred to as "user exits," two of the three have different names. SAP Enhancements are used to expand the standard functionality within SAP. Enhancements use function modules and are called from the standard SAP code. Each module in the system has a set of delivered enhancements that help companies expand the standard functionality where they need it. Enhancements were new in release 3.0.
The Open FI Interfaces or Business Transaction Events are also used to expand the standard functionality within SAP. These events are defined in the IMG. Business Transaction Events were new in release 4.0. They are not available for all modules and are not called on all integrated transactions into FI as of release 4.5B. This will change with each release and should be retested.
The older User Exits in FI/CO are "Z" programs that are defined in table T80D for client-dependent user exits, and in table T80I for client-independent user exits. These are also used to expand the standard functionality within the FI/CO modules. These User Exits have been available since the early releases of SAP. All of these FI/CO User Exits are listed in this document in the Configuring User Exits (Older). The list is included because these User Exits are not a part of the Enhancements or Business Transaction Events and do not have an Info System for searching.
Benefits
Standard SAP functionality can be enhanced without modification to the standard code.
Upgrades do not erase the functionality and it does not have to be re-transported or re-entered into the system. The enhancements should be thoroughly tested when upgrading to ensure the system will still work as implemented.
Configuring SAP Enhancements
Basic Steps in Configuring an Enhancement
Find the appropriate Enhancement.
Enter the ABAP code in the "Z" program within the function module.
Create a project.
Add the Enhancement to the project.
Activate the project.
Example Business Scenario for Enhancements
Company A has a requirement to validate all customer master records created with a U.S. address. The U.S. entity reports on the industry field on the customer master. This is only a U.S. requirement and should not be required for the other countries, so the field status would not work. To accomplish this requirement, Company A will need to set up an Enhancement for the customer master transaction. The necessary steps are detailed below with screenprints. This example was configured in a 4.6C system.
Detailed Steps
1. Tools ABAP Workbench Utilities Enhancements Definition Utilities List Enhancements
2. Do not execute this without any parameters! There are too many Enhancements and it will probably time out. Youre searching for a customer master exit. Enter mast in the short text (see Figure 1). Youll start there. Searching for an exit can be tricky, so make sure you try several things before giving up.
3. Execute the search.
Figure 1. Start Your Search for a Master Exit Here
4. Look through the list until you find the Enhancement for User exits: Customer Master Data.
5. Double-click on the enhancement SAPMF02D. This will take you to the details of the Enhancement and list the function modules included in the Enhancement.
6. To continue, double-click on the function module EXIT_SAPMF02D_001
7. This will take you to the source code for the function module. Click on the Import tab to review the tables/fields that are available for the Enhancement (see Figure 2).
Figure 2. The Tables That Are Available for the Enhancement
8. To view the tables/fields that can be changed in the function module, click on the Export and Changing tabs. For this function module, these tabs are empty because you can only validate data. You cannot change any fields in this enhancement.
9. Return to the Source Code tab.
10. Scroll down until you see the Include statement in the program. The "Z" program listed after the Include is where your code will be written (see Figure 3).
Figure 3. Your Program Will Begin After the Include Statement
11. Double-click on the Include. You will be prompted to create the include. Click on Yes to create.
12. At this point you will be prompted to enter a development class and to create a transport request. If you do not know which development class to use, please contact your technical team.
13. Enter the following ABAP code into the program (Figure 4):
User exit to ensure that all US customers have a group key
entered on the customer master.
if i_kna1-land1 = 'US' and
i_kna1-brsch = ' '.
message e001(F2).
endif.
Figure 4. The ABAP Code You Need to Enter
14. Note that the table name matches the table name in the import tab tables.
15. In this example you are using the standard message class F2 with message number 001. Normally, you will create your own message within your own message class. All customer message classes must begin with a "Z" and are created in transaction SE91.
16. Save the program.
17. The next step is to create the project. Go to transaction code CMOD or follow menu path: Tools ABAP Workbench Utilities Enhancements Project Management.
18. Enter the project name; begin the name with a "Z."
19. Click on the Create button.
Figure 5. Click on Create After You Type in the Project Name
20. Enter in a description for the project.
21. Click on the Enhancement Assignments button.
22. You will be prompted to save the enhancement. Click on Yes.
23. At this point you will be asked for a development class and to create a transport for the project. You may use the same one created when adding the ABAP code to the function module.
24. Enter the name of the enhancement SAPMF02D (see Figure 6).
Figure 6. Enter the Name of the Enhancement Here
25. Save the project.
26. Back out of the enhancement assignment.
27. Activate the project by hitting the Activate button.
The SAP Enhancement is ready to be tested! Try creating a customer with U.S. as the country and a blank group key. Be sure to test one with a group key to make sure the message is not displayed in error as well.
Configuring Business Transaction Events
Basic Steps in Configuring an Event
Make sure the application is active for Business Transaction Events.
Copy the sample interface function module into a "Z" function module.
Enter the ABAP code into the source code section of the new "Z" function module. You may choose to create a "Z" program to enter the code into and then insert the "Z" program into your function module source code.
Activate the function module.
Assign the function module to the event, country and application.
Example Business Scenario for Business Transaction Events
Company A would like to copy the group key field from the vendor master into the allocation field on all the line items within a vendor invoice and payments, including the vendor lines. This requirement assumes only one vendor is posted to in a document.
To accomplish this requirement, Company A will use the Business Transaction Event 1130, Post Document: SAP Internal Field Substitution.
1. IMG Menu Path: Financial Accounting Financial Accounting Global Settings Use Business Transaction Events Environment Infosystem (Processes).
2. Find the correct Business Event. You are updating a field, so you select the Processes Info System instead of the Publish and Subscribe Info System.
3. Execute the search with the defaults.
4. Find the correct interface for updating a document: Post Document: SAP- Internal Field Substitution (see Figure 7).
Figure 7. Find the Correct Interface for the Business Event
5. Put your cursor on the event and click on the Sample Function Module button.
6. You are now in transaction SE37 Function Builder. This is the function module (sample_process_00001130) you will need to copy into a "Z" name function module for your coding (see Figure 8).
Figure 8. This Is the Function Module You Need to Copy Your "Z" Name Function Module
7. Click on the Copy button.
8. Enter the "Z" function module name in the To Function Module field (see Figure 9).
9. Enter a Function Group. If you need to create a "Z" function group, go to transaction code SE37 and follow menu path: Go to Function Groups Create Group. A function group is a logical grouping of function modules, and the ABAP code is generated for function groups. You will be prompted for a development class and transport when creating the function group.
Figure 9. Enter Your "Z" Function Module Name Here
10. In Function Builder (transaction SE37), enter the new "Z" function module. Click on the Change button.
11. The system will default into the source code screen where you may enter your ABAP code.
12. Notice the tables available for the code. Additional tables may be declared if necessary.
13. Enter the following source code (see Figure 10):
tables: lfa1.
data: z_groupkey like lfa1-konzs.
z_groupkey = ' '.
loop at t_bseg.
check for vendor lines. If one is found, read the vendor master and
retrieve the group key field.
if t_bseg-koart eq 'K'.
select single konzs from lfa1 into z_groupkey
where lifnr = t_bseg-lifnr.
endif.
Move the group key field into all line items allocation field.
loop at t_bsegsub.
t_bsegsub-zuonr = z_groupkey.
modify t_bsegsub index sy-tabix.
endloop. "t_bsegsub
endloop. "t_bseg
Figure 10. The Screen Where You Enter Your Source Code
14. Save the function module.
15. Back out to the main Function Builder screen by clicking on the green arrow button.
16. Activate the function module by clicking on the Activate button (see Figure 11).
Figure 11. Activate the Function Module from This Screen
17. Assign the function module to the event in the IMG: Financial Accounting Financial Accounting Global Settings Business Transaction Events Settings Process Function Modules of an SAP Appl.
18. Hit enter past the warning messages that this is SAP data.
19. Click on the New Entries button.
20. Enter the process for your interface. In your example it is 00001130.
21. Enter the country the interface is valid for. If it is valid for all countries, leave this field blank.
22. Enter the application the interface should be called for. If it should be called for all applications, leave this field blank. Please note that not all integrated transactions are programmed to go through these interfaces! You will need to test to find out!
23. Enter the new "Z" function module (see Figure 12).
Figure 12. Enter Your New "Z" Function Module Here
24. Save the settings. At this point you will be prompted for a CTS number for the configuration change.
25. The Business Transaction Event is complete! You are ready for testing.
Configuring User Exits (Older)
Basic Steps in Configuring an User Exit
Create a "Z" program for the User Exits and enter the necessary ABAP code.
Enter the new program name into table T80D.
Configure the application to call the User Exit.
List of User Exits
Variable Field Movements
Substitutions in FI, CO, PCA
Validations in FI, CO, PCA
Rollups in SPL
Fixed Field Movements in SPL
Cost Center Summarization on Detail Screen
Sets Formula Variables
Example Business Scenario for User Exits
Company A would like to add a "Z" field in the Special Purpose Ledger to capture a Business Unit field for reporting. They have used all the standard SAP fields such as Business Area and Profit Center. The field will only be used for reporting and is only needed in the Special Purpose Ledger. You created a special ledger table (ZZSPL1) with field Z_BUNIT and need to populate this field based on a combination of G/L account, fund and functional area.
To accomplish this requirement, Company A will use the Variable Field Movement User Exit. To make maintenance easier, table ZZBUSUNIT was created with the G/L account, fund and functional area fields as key fields, and the business unit field as a non-key field. You generated the table maintenance so the table could be updated using transaction SM30. SAP users update the business unit determination rules in table ZZBUSUNIT by entering the G/L account, fund and functional area, and then the business unit that combination should be posting to. The User Exit will read table ZZBUSUNIT using the G/L account, fund and functional area from the posting transaction and determine the business unit. The steps for using the user exit are detailed below. This example was created on a 4.6C system.
1. Copy the delivered template User Exit program RGIVU000_TEMPLATE into a "Z" program. Follow menu path Tools ABAP Workbench Development ABAP Editor (transaction code SE38). In early releases, the delivered program was RGIVU000.
2. You will be prompted for a development class and a transport. Please check with the technical team for the correct development class.
3. At the initial ABAP Editor screen, enter your new "Z" program name, select the Source Code button and click on Change (see Figure 13).
Figure 13. To Enter Your New Code, Select Source Code and Click on the Change Button
4. Enter the following code in the User Exit (Figure 14):
FORM E01_MVC USING FROM_FIELD TO_FIELD.
to_field = 'CORP'. "Set a default business unit.
read table zzbusunit to determine the business unit field.
select single z_bunit from zzbusunit into to_field
where hkont = accit_glx-hkont and
geber = accit_glx-geber and
fkber = accit_glx-fkber.
ENDFORM.
Figure 14. Enter Your New Code at This Screen.
5. Activate the program by clicking on the Activate button.
6. Change the configuration in the User Exit table to point to your new "Z" program.
7. Follow the IMG menu path: Financial Accounting Special Purpose Ledger Basic Settings User Exits Maintain Client Specific User Exits.
8. The entry to maintain is application area GIMV: Variable Field Movement. Enter your "Z" program (see Figure 15).
Figure 15. Enter Your "Z" Program in the Application Area GIMV: Variable Field Movement
9. Save the changes.
10. The final configuration step is to assign the User Exit in the variable field movement for your special ledger table. In the IMG: Financial Accounting  Special Purpose Ledger  Basic Settings  Master Data  Maintain Field Movements. Field movements control how the fields in a special ledger table are populated. They can be populated straight from other fields in a posting or through User Exits.
Figure 16. After You Assign the Business Unit Field and the G/L Account, the Exit Field Should Contain U01.
11. Assign the business unit field as a receiver and the G/L account as the sender. The Exit field should contain U01 (see Figure 16).
12. The User Exit number U01 calls User Exit E01_MVC form in the "Z" program.
13. Save the field movement.
14. You are ready to test your User Exit! -
B1iSN2007 - Step by step manual
Hi folks!
I recently installed the new ramp-up version of B1iSN2007. Now I am trying to find some step-by-step documentation on how to create biu's, on how to create bizpackages, on how to define value mapping,...
I found lot's o manuals that describe the usage of B1i in 2005. I found lot's of "sample codes" that show biu's that transfer data from one B1.2005 system to another B1.2005 system.
There are also tons of marketing-sheets that describe the technical basis of B1iSN2007.
What I am missing is something like a B1iSN2007 step-by-step manual for newbies.
Can anyone tell me, where to find such a piece of documentation or can anyone help me with the creation of a simple B1.ITM 2 B1.ITM scenario in B1iSN2007?
I have no real idea where to start.
Thanks in advance,
Klaus GrundwaldKlaus,
The ramp-up version of B1iSN2007 has to be downloaded from the SAP PartnerEdge Portal. The version of B1iP2007 on the Business One CD does not contain all of the needed information.
So first is that it depends on which version you have.
As far a documentation on Customizing B1iSN2007, there is documentation that comes with the version that you download such as the development guide which discusses creating new adapters, BIU's etc. You can also use the BIU documentation on SDN with respect to customizing. The heading of the document states it is for B1i 2005, but the same techniques apply.
As far as Value mapping, installing, configuring B1iSN2007, configuring R/3 and Business One ... that documentation is in the Documentation folder on the ramp-up version you download.
Using B1iSN2007 requires understanding of SAP Business One and R/3 and well as customization of BIU's requires knowledge of XML and XSLT.
Hope that helps,
Eddy -
Could you Please Send me the Step by Step guide for the BADI
Hi ABAPers,
Could you Please Send me the Step by Step guide for the BADI.It is very Urgent
Thanks & Regards,
Ashok.Each BAdI has a definition and more than one implementation. The definition means the methods(in class concept) that are used for performing various functions. The BAdI definition can be viewed in SE18 transaction(for standard ones) and user-defined BAdIs can be created in the same transaction as well.
When you create a BAdI definition, an class interface will be automatically created and you can define your methods in the interface. The implementation of the methods can be done in SE19 transaction .
YOu can go through these links...

suppose your working for XK01 then for that the BADI being VENDOR_ADD_DATA then this implemetation procedure.
Steps:
1. Execute Business Add-In(BADI) transaction SE18
2. Enter BADI name i.e. VENDOR_ADD_DATAand press the display
button
3. Select menu option Implementation->Create
4. Give implementation a name such as Z_VENDOR_ADD_DATA
5. You can now make any changes you require to the BADI within this
implementation, for example choose the Interface tab
6. Double click on the method you want to change, you can now enter
any code you require.
7. Please note to find out what import and export parameters a
method has got return the original BADI definition
(i.e. VENDOR_ADD_DATA) and double click on the method name
for example within VENDOR_ADD_DATA contract is a method
8. When changes have been made activate the implementation
BADI(Business Add-In) is the object oriented method of user exits...
Each BAdI has a definition and more than one implementation. The definition means the methods(in class concept) that are used for performing various functions. The BAdI definition can be viewed in SE18 transaction(for standard ones) and user-defined BAdIs can be created in the same transaction as well.
When you create a BAdI definition, an class interface will be automatically created and you can define your methods in the interface. The implementation of the methods can be done in SE19 transaction

New to Badi
Follow the below steps to find out what all BADI's are called when you press any button in any transaction.
1) Goto se24 (Display class cl_exithandler)
2) Double click on the method GET_INSTANCE.
3) Put a break point at Line no.25 (CASE sy-subrc).
Now
4) Execute SAP standard transaction
5) Press the required button for which you need to write an exit logic, the execution will stop at the break point.
6) Check the values of variable 'exit_name', it will give you the BADI name called at that time.
7) This way you will find all the BADIs called on click of any button in any transaction.
Business Add-Ins
Business Add-Ins are a new SAP enhancement technique based on ABAP Objects. They can be inserted into the SAP System to accommodate user requirements too specific to be included in the standard delivery. Since specific industries often require special functions, SAP allows you to predefine these points in your software.
As with customer exits (SMOD/CMOD [Page 40]), two different views are available:
In the definition view, an application programmer predefines exit points in a source that allow specific industry sectors, partners, and customers to attach additional software to standard SAP source code without having to modify the original object.
In the implementation view, the users of Business Add-Ins can customize the logic they need or use a standard logic if one is available.
In contrast to customer exits, Business Add-Ins no longer assume a two-system infrastructure (SAP and customers), but instead allow for multiple levels of software development (by SAP, partners, and customers, and as country versions, industry solutions, and the like). Definitions and implementations of Business Add-Ins can be created at each level within such a system infrastructure.
SAP guarantees the upward compatibility of all Business Add-In interfaces. Release upgrades do not affect enhancement calls from within the standard software nor do they affect the validity of call interfaces. You do not have to register Business Add-Ins in SSCR.
The Business Add-In enhancement technique differentiates between enhancements that can only be implemented once and enhancements that can be used actively by any number of customers at the same time.
In addition, Business Add-Ins can be defined according to filter values. This allows you to control add-in implementation and make it dependent on specific criteria (on a specific Country value, for example). All ABAP sources, screens, GUIs, and table interfaces created using this enhancement technique are defined in a manner that allows customers to include their own enhancements in the standard.
A single Business Add-In contains all of the interfaces necessary to implement a specific task. In Release 4.6A, program and menu enhancements can be made with Business Add-Ins. The actual program code is enhanced using ABAP Objects. In order to better understand the programming techniques behind the Business Add-In enhancement concept, SAP recommends reading the section on ABAP Objects
DEFINING THE BADI
1) execute Tcode SE18.
2) Specify a definition Name : ZBADI_SPFLI
3) Press create
4) Choose the attribute tab. Specify short desc for badi.. and specify the type :
multiple use.
5) Choose the interface tab
6) Specify interface name: ZIF_EX_BADI_SPFLI and save.
7) Dbl clk on interface name to start class builder . specify a method name (name,
level, desc).
Method level desc
Linese;ection instance methos some desc
8) place the cursor on the method name desc its parameters to define the interface.
Parameter type refe field desc
I_carrid import spfli-carrid some
I_connid import spefi-connid some
9) save , check and activate adapter class proposed by system is
ZCL_IM_IM_LINESEL is genereated.
IMPLEMENTATION OF BADI DEFINITION
1) EXECUTE tcode se18.choose menuitem create from the implementation menubar.
2) Specify aname for implementation ZIM_LINESEL
3) Specify short desc.
4) Choose interface tab. System proposes a name fo the implementation class.
ZCL_IM_IMLINESEL which is already generarted.
5) Specify short desc for method

u can find BADI's in different ways...
1>First go to any transaction->iN THE menu bar SYSTEM->STATUS->Get the program name ->double click->u will go to the program attached to the tcode.Now search term will be CALL CL_EXITHANDLER.Now u will get list of BADI'S available..
2>Goto SE24->Give class name as CL_EXITHANDLER->Display->double click on get_instance mathod->Now u will go inside the method->Now put break point on the cl_exithandler.Now go to any transaction code and pass dat..U will see that it will be stopped on the break point which u set on the cl_exithandler...In the exit name u can find list of badi's attached to the tcode..
There are multiple ways of searching for BADI.
Finding BADI Using CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE
Finding BADI Using SQL Trace (TCODE-ST05).
Finding BADI Using Repository Information System (TCODE- SE84).
1. Go to the Transaction, for which we want to find the BADI, take the example of Transaction VD02. Click on System->Status. Double click on the program name. Once inside the program search for CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE.
Make sure the radio button In main program is checked. A list of all the programs with call to the BADIs will be listed.
The export parameter EXIT_NAME for the method GET_INSTANCE of class CL_EXITHANDLER will have the user exit assigned to it. The changing parameter INSTANCE will have the interface assigned to it. Double click on the method to enter the source code.Definition of Instance would give you the Interface name.
2. Start transaction ST05 (Performance Analysis).
Set flag field "Buffer trace"
Remark: We need to trace also the buffer calls, because BADI database tables are buffered. (Especially view V_EXT_IMP and V_EXT_ACT)
Push the button "Activate Trace". Start transaction VA02 in a new GUI session. Go back to the Performance trace session.
Push the button "Deactivate Trace".
Push the button "Display Trace".
The popup screen "Set Restrictions for Displaying Trace" appears.
Now, filter the trace on Objects:
V_EXT_IMP
V_EXT_ACT
Push button "Multiple selections" button behind field Objects
Fill: V_EXT_IMP and V_EXT_ACT
All the interface class names of view V_EXT_IMP start with IF_EX_. This is the standard SAP prefix for BADI class interfaces. The BADI name is after the IF_EX_.
So the BADI name of IF_EX_CUSTOMER_ADD_DATA is CUSTOMER_ADD_DATA
3. Go to Maintain Transaction (TCODE- SE93).
Enter the Transaction VD02 for which you want to find BADI.
Click on the Display push buttons.
Get the Package Name. (Package VS in this case)
Go to TCode: SE84->Enhancements->Business Add-inns->Definition
Enter the Package Name and Execute.
Here you get a list of all the Enhancement BADIs for the given package MB.
The simplese way for finding BADI is
1. chooes Tcode Program & package for that Tcode.
2. Go to Tcode se18
3. Press F4
4. search by package or by program.

Video or step by step tutorial link for create forms using template.fmb
Hi,
Give me link which provides step by step tutorial or video tutorial for the following:
1. where should i save the template.fmb and library files in my local machine
2. how to create customize form using template.fmb
3. how to do test run that form in local machine (i'm asking this because the template form having reference to app libraries)
3. how to convert .fmb to .fmx
4. how to register that form in apps
i understood about how to do the above process through existing threads in this forum, but i getting lot of errors and confusion while i'm implementing. so please tell me steps or give link which provides details.What Forms version are you using? While you're at it, what is your database and OS versions also? Can you provide us with an example of the type of errors you are getting?
(i'm asking this because the template form having reference to app libraries)Developing Forms for Oracle Enterprise Business Suite (EBS) is different from non-EBS applications because of the EBS Framework and standard processing that occurs.
Your BEST resource for developing EBS Forms is the Oracle Applications Documentation library. Select your EBS version and then find scroll to the Standards section and review the following documents:
<ul>
<li>Oracle Applications Developer's Guide
<li>Oracle Applications User Interface Standards for Forms-Based Products
<li>Oracle Application Framework Personalization Guide
</ul>
For most of your questions, you'll find the answers in the aforementioned documents.
1. where should i save the template.fmb and library files in my local machineMy guess is that many of the errors have to do with attached libraries. The APPSTAND.fmb, TEMPLATE.fmb and all of the Apps Libraries (.pll) must be in the FORMS_PATH. Which means you will need to modify the FORMS_PATH registry entry for your Forms version (6i or 10g) and EBS version (R11 or R12).
3. how to do test run that form in local machine (i'm asking this because the template form having reference to app libraries)You can't - there are too many EBS Framework calls that will generate errors when the form runs outside of the EBS Framework. You have to test your form in a Test/Dev EBS system.
3. how to convert .fmb to .fmxUse the Forms compiler executable. (frmcmp.exe - on Windows)
4. how to register that form in appsThis process is too indepth to explain in the Forum - read the Administrator Guides ;-)
I get the feeling you are trying to learn this on your own rather than attend a class. My advise is to attend some classes. They are well worth the investment! :)
As to videos, you might want to try searching uTube. I've seen some Forms tutorial videos out there in the past.
Lastly, your best source of 'Forum' help is the General EBS Discussion forum.
Hope this helps,
Craig B-)
If someone's response is helpful or correct, please mark it accordingly.

Backing up HD and Panther upgrading step by step request
new to forum, just want to ensure I do everything right..
I've had and used my iBook for 5 years now and I believe have been running 10.2.8 for the majority of that time.
I have the following items-
-iBook (meets requirements)
-WD My Book Pro edition 250GB
-Panther upgrade discs
and would like to do the following procedures-
-back my current HD onto the external drive (I do not want to lose my music,photos, and mail when I upgrade)
-upgrade to Panther
-use new OS with music, photos, and email intact
I've read through the discussions for tips, but I would appreciate a simplified step by step walk through if someone would be so nice... I have zero experience backing up, running disk repairs and permissions stuff, etc. so any steps that are helpful along the way are appreciated.
also I believe I need to format the WD My Book to run properly in 10.2.8 before I can backup HD prior to upgrading..? sound right..?
forgive any terminology mistakes.
thanks,

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
If I may expand on roam's very comprehensive response a bit, just by way of fleshing it out.
You said you have an external HDD, but you did say whether is was Firewire or USB or FW/USB. If you want to make a bootable clone you need firewire.
As roam indicated you will need to format and partition the HDD before you can clone to it. Dr. Smoke's FAQ Backup and Recovery has excellent advice on partitioning.Now to
Formatting, Partitioning Zeroing a Hard Disk Drive
Warning! This procedure will destroy all data on your Hard Disk Drive. Be sure you have an up-to-date, tested backup of at least your Users folder and any third party applications you do not want to re-install before attempting this procedure.
Boot from the install CD holding down the "C" key.
Select language
Go to the Utilities menu (Tiger) Installer menu (Panther & earlier) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
Select Partition tab in main panel. (You are about to create a single partition volume.)
Select number of partition in pull-down menu above Volume diagram.
(Note: 1 partition is normally better for an internal HDD. External HDDs usually have more than one)
Type in name in Name field (usually Macintosh HD)
Select Volume Format as Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
Click Partition button at bottom of panel.
Select Erase tab
Select the a volume under Manufacturer ID (usually Macintosh HD).
Check to be sure your Volume Name and Volume Format are correct.
Select on Security Options button (Tiger) Options button (Panther & earlier).
Select Zero all data. (This process will map out bad blocks on your HDD. However, it could take several hours. If you want a quicker method, don't go to Security Options and just click the Erase button.)
Click OK.
Click Erase button
Quit Disk Utility.
Now your HDD is ready to accept your clone. Dr. Smoke has a preference for Retropect which I have found diffcult to use. SuperDuper will do an excellent job of making an exact backup of your HDD on the external drive.
Your computer is already connected to the external HDD.
Launch Super Duper
Select the Source (your iBook) and the Destination (external HDD)
Click copy, and confirm.
I notice that you list Panther upgrade disks. Hoeefully they are specific to your computer, or else there can be a problem. To install
Boot from you install disk holding down the "C" key.
When booted, select language.
Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
Select First Aid in main panel.
Click Repair Disk Permissions.
After Permissions are repaired Click Repair Disk.
Quit Disk Utility.
Open Installer and begin installation.
Installation option: Upgrade
Choose to Customize and deselect Foreign Language Translations and Additional Printer drivers.
Check box to install BSD Subsystems.
Proceed with installation.
After installation computer will restart for setup.
After setup, reboot computer.
Go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
Select First Aid in main panel.
Click Repair Disk Permissions.
Connect to Internet.
Download and install 10.3.9 Combo Update
Computer will restart after updates.
Go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
Select First Aid in main panel.
Click Repair Disk Permissions.
Please post back with questions, comments or an update on your progress.
Good luck.

Looking for a Step by Step to place Aperture Library on External
Can anyone direct me to step by step directions on how to export my Aperture library to an external hard drive?
I've seen rambling threads that touch on it of course but they refer to "Managed' or 'Referenced' and other terms that I am not sure how to check if my library are those.
I am on a iMac with only a 500 gig drive and my Aperture library is 100 Gigs of that drive! I'd like to place it on an external for obvious reasons. Crazy that Apple doesn't make this a WHOLE lot easier.
Thanks in advance for your input.Aperture is an extremely capable and powerful program. It is not for beginners or for those who are not interested in learning how to use it. Just my humble opinion.
It is important that you understand the difference between Managed Masters and Referenced Masters. Of course, you must know what a Master is.
It is easy to tell which of which you have in your Library. Aperture uses Badges to inform you. (Badges are shown in the Metadata Overlays, as well as on the Metadata tab of the Inspector. There are seven Metadata Overlays: you should customize each of them to meet your needs.)
You can also filter Photos view using the Rule "File Status". The selections there are straightforward.
100 GB is a moderately large Library. The recommended method of lessening the storage burden a large Library places on your system drive is to convert some or all of your Images' Masters from Managed to Referenced. Aperture makes this easy to do.
It is possible to run an Aperture Library from an external drive. The faster the drive the better. I have done this over FW400 with 5200 rpm drives, but the minimum I would recommend is FW800 with a 7200 rpm drive with a sizable cache.
Putting the Library on an external drive is less desirable than putting just some or all of that Library's Images' Masters on an external drive and leaving the Library on your system drive.
Moving the Library is simple and, in point of fact, couldn't be easier. (You don't want to export your Library; you want to move it.) With Aperture closed, select the Library in Finder (the extension is "aplibrary"). Move it where you want it to be. Double-click it to launch Aperture and load the Library from its new location. Now every time you launch Aperture, it will load that Library (as long as it is on-line).
The User Manual is here. It is an excellent resource. I have highlighted in orange above some of the terms you will need to know. I strongly suggest looking each of them up in the Manual (note the Glossary at the end of the Manual), and reading the first seven chapters which introduce the program and provide a worthy map for your self-teaching.

ajay kodali.Hi,
Data Creation in Idoc
IDocs are text encoded documents with a rigid structure that are used to exchange data between R/3 and a foreign system. Instead of calling a program in the destination system directly, the data is first packed into an IDoc and then sent to the receiving system, where it is analyzed and properly processed. Therefore an IDoc data exchange is always an
asynchronous process. The significant difference between simple RFC-calls and IDoc data exchange is the fact, that every action performed on IDocs are protocolled by R/3 and IDocs can be reprocessed if an error occurred in one of the message steps.
While IDocs have to be understood as a data exchange protocol, EDI and ALE are typical use cases for IDocs. R/3 uses IDocs for both EDI and ALE to deliver data to the receiving system. ALE is basically the scheduling mechanism that defines when and between which partners and what kind of data will be exchanged on a regular or event triggered basis. Such a set-up is called an ALE-scenario.
IDoc is a intermediate document to exchange data between two SAP Systems.
*IDocs are structured ASCII files (or a virtual equivalent).
*Electronic Interchange Document
*They are the file format used by SAP R/3 to exchange data with foreign systems.
*Data Is transmitted in ASCII format, i.e. human readable form
*IDocs exchange messages
*IDocs are used like classical interface files
IDOC types are templates for specific message types depending on what is the business document, you want to exchange.
WE30 - you can create a IDOC type.
An IDOC with data, will have to be triggered by the application that is trying to send out the data.
FOr testing you can use WE19.

Save it and go back
Go to Edit -> Set Release
Follow steps to create more number of segments
Create IDOC Type
Go to transaction code WE30
Enter the Object Name, select Basic type and click Create icon
Select the create new option and enter a description for your basic IDOC type and press enter
Select the IDOC Name and click Create icon
The system prompts us to enter a segment type and its attributes
Choose the appropriate values and press Enter
The system transfers the name of the segment type to the IDOC editor.
Follow these steps to add more number of segments to Parent or as Parent-child relation
Save it and go back
Go to Edit -> Set release
Create Message Type
Go to transaction code WE81
Change the details from Display mode to Change mode
After selection, the system will give this message The table is cross-client (see Help for further info). Press Enter

An IDoc is simply a data container that is used to exchange information between any two processes that can understand the syntax and semantics of the data...
1.IDOCs are stored in the database. In the SAP system, IDOCs are stored in database tables.
2.IDOCs are independent of the sending and receiving systems.
3.IDOCs are independent of the direction of data exchange.
The two available process for IDOCs are
Outbound Process
Inbound Process
AND There are basically two types of IDOCs.
Basic IDOCs
Basic IDOC type defines the structure and format of the business document that is to be exchanged between two systems.
Extended IDOCs
Extending the functionality by adding more segments to existing Basic IDOCs.
To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:
Create Segment ( WE31)
Create Idoc Type ( WE30)
Create Message Type ( WE81)
Assign Idoc Type to Message Type ( WE82)

I have one apple ID for multiple devices in my family. I'd like to keep it that way for itunes/app purchases. I would like a simple step 1, step 2, step 3 response on what I need to do to separate all other features like imessage, contacts, emails, etc.
I have been reasearching how to do this on the internet, but I haven't found an easy explanation yet. My family is going crazy over each others imessages being sent to others in the family and not being able to use FaceTime because of conflicting email addresses. I have read that if each person gets their own iCloud account, this would work. However, I need to know what to do after I set everyone up with their own iCloud account. Do I make that the default email address to be contacted or can they still use their hotmail email addresses. Any help- with easy explanation- would be much appreciated!!We do this in my family now. We have one account for purchases, so it is used to share music and apps (I think that is in Settings/iTunes & App Stores). Each iDevice has this configured.
Then, each of us has our own iCloud account that is configured under Settings/iCloud. That then allows us to have our own Mail/Contacts/Calendars/Reminders/Safari Bookmarks/Notes/Passbook/Photo Stream/Documents & Data/Find My iPhone/and Backup. That Backup piece is pretty sweet and comes in handly if you replace your iDevice. You can just restore from it.
So we all share the Apple Store account but we all have our own iCloud accounts to keep the rest seperate or things like you mentioned are a nightmare.
In answer to what iCloud does for you: http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/
Think of it as an internet based ("cloud") area for all of those items listed in my response. What you need to remember is photo stream only maintans the last 1000 pictures so don't count it as a complete backup solution for your pictures. Even though I rarely sync with a computer these days, I do still try to sync my phone with iPhoto (I have an iMac) so that I have copies of all of my pictures. 1000 may not stretch as far as it sounds.
