He I have a very basic question regarding reporting of invoice lines and related receiver lines

The documentation shows that receiver transaction id and receiver shipment header and line id should be joined to the same columns in AP invoice lines but these columns are not populated. What is the join for Payables and Purchasing 12.0 and beyond. We are on 12.2.4.
Please advise.

Yes, he does not want redirects because it is POF. Also, redirects don't stay in address bar (at the one I created) - once the screen loads you see the same long URL in address bar. He says I should be able to create another public name for the website (made of forms and reports). Maybe I should go with MOD_REWRITE module? I am reading about it now and they say it's more like renaming then redirecting and I think that's more like what my boss is looking for. Key question: if I use MOD_REWRITE to redirect, would the original (long) URL string be displayed once the first screen loads? I am trying to avoid that. I need users to type http://virtualserver/welcome and to STAY that way in address bar.
Thanks.

Hi
That's default structure name prompts by system. When you drag the KF then it will show your dragged KF under Key Figure.
Just drag the required KF and save thequery then run.

Question regarding Report-report-interface (RRI)

Hello Guyz
I have this scenario in BW 3.5:
I have the AP ODS which has several Accounting Doc. Nos for a particular date(or range of dates). But when I filter them with the field Item Status, the no. of records decrease considerably. Now I need to tie these document numbers to the data in the PCA cube which does not have the Item Status field.
Note: This is BW 3.5, so an Infoset is not possible over a cube. And building another cube, and writing ABAP routines to correctly filter & load the records is an option, but seems to be a round-about route.
I thought that I would create an RRI between 2 queries: 1 on the AP DSO (sender query) and the 2nd on PCA cube (receiver query). I will run the 1st query with the filter condition (Item status = O (open)). Then I would use Accounting Doc Number (KEY) to drill down to the detailed query (PCA).
My question: I know that we can take 1 Doc Number and jump to the receiver query. But can we jump to the receiver query with a range of Doc. Numbers or with multple single values option?
Please suggest.

Hi Sri,
I suggest, rather than using a Jump To, you can use a pre-query.
Create a pre query on the DSO with a filter on Item Status and in the rows just Document number.
In the Main Query, from the PCA cube create a Replacement Path variable on Document number and assign the previous query.
Hope that is useful.

Questions regarding new functionalities in EhP 4 - Reporting Financials 2

Dear Forum,
in a project we would like to use some new functionalities from Reporting Financials 2 - ie. Datasource 0FI_AA_20 for Depreciation and Amortization loading to BI for following years as this can not be done by old extractor.
We are know looking for reliable information about impact and changes that are made in ERP if we switch on the functionality Reporting Financials 2 via SFW5? Will old extracors work nevertheless? Will all reports in ERP work without problems? Is there any impact on business processes? Or is this just additional functionality which will not affect current implementation?
Can anybody give information about this?
Thanks, regards
Lars

Marc,
Some additional questions regarding locking.
I encounter that the dataset that is locked depends on the restrictions made in the 'Characteristic Restrictions'-part of the query.
Restrictions in the 'Default Values'-part are not taken into account. In that case all data records of the characteristic are locked.
Q1: Is that correct?
To give an example: Assume you restrict customer on hierarchy node in Default Values. If you want people to plan concurrently this is not possible since all customers are locked then. When customer restriction is moved to Char Restr the system only locks the specific cutomer hier node and people can plan concurrently.
Q2: What about variables use in restricted keyfigures like variable for fy/period? Is only this fy/period locked then?
Q3: We'd like to lock on a navigational attribute. The nav attr is put as a variable in the filter of the Characteristic Restrictions. Does the system then only lock this selection for the nav.attr? Or do I have to change my locking settings in RSPLSE?
Then question regarding locking of data for functions:
Assume you use the BEx Analyzer and use the query as data_provider_filter for your planning function. You use restricted keyfigures with char Version. First column contains amount for version 1 and second column contains amount for version 2.
In the Char Restrictions you've restricted version to values '1' and '2'.
When executing the inputready query version 1 and 2 are locked. (due to the selection in Char Restr)
But when executing the planning function all versions are locked (*)
Q4: True?
Kind regards, Harjan

Question regarding Dashboard and column prompt

My question regarding Dashboard and column prompt:
1) Dashboard prompt usually work with only for columns which are in subject area. In my report I've created some of the columns which are based on other columns. Like I've daysNumber column that is based on two other columns, as it calculates the difference of two dates. When I create dashboard prompt I can't find this column there. I need to make a prompt on this column.
2)For one of the column I've only two values 1 and 0. When I create prompt for this column, is it possible that in drop down list It shows 'Yes' for 1 and 'No' for 0 and still filter the request??

Hi Toony,...
I think there was another way of doing this...
In the dashboard prompt go to Show option > select SQL Results from dropdown.
There you need to write your Logical SQL like...
SELECT CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN PERIODS.YEAR ELSE difference of date functionality END FROM SubjectAreaName
Here.. Periods.Year is the column which is already exists in repository's presentation layer..
and difference of date functionality is the code or formula of column which you want to show in drop-down...
Also write the CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN PERIODS.YEAR ELSE difference of date functionality END code in fx of that prompt.
I think it helps you in doing this..
Just check and inform me if it works...
Thanks & Regards

Basic question regarding SSIS 2010 Package where source is Microsoft Excel 97-2005 and there is no Microsoft office or Excel driver installed in Production

Hi all,
I got one basic question regarding SSIS 2010 Package where source is Microsoft Excel 97-2005. I wanted to know How this package works in production where there is no Microsoft office or Excel driver installed. To check that there is excel driver installed
or not, I followed steps: Start-->Administrative Tools--> Data Sources(ODBC)-->Drivers and I found only 2 drivers one is SQL Server and another one is SQL Server Native Client 11.0.
Windows edition is Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise, Service Pack-1 and System type is 64-bit Operating System.
We are running this package from SQL Server Agent and using 32-bit (\\Machine_Name\d$\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\DTS\Binn\DTExec.exe /FILE "\\Machine_Name\d$\ Folder_Name\EtL.dtsx" /CONFIGFILE "\\Machine_Name\d$\Folder_Name\Config.dtsConfig"
/MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E) to run this package. I opened the package and tried to find out what connection we have used and found that we have used "Excel Connection Manager" and ConnectionString=Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
Source=F:\Fares.xls;Extended Properties="EXCEL 8.0;HDR=YES"; and source is ‘Excel Source’
I discussed with my DBA and He said that SSIS is having inbuilt Excel driver but I am not convinced.
Could anyone please clear my confusion/doubt?
I have gone through various links but my doubt is still not clear.

How Can I Get a List of the ODBC Drivers that are Installed on a Computer?
http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2005/07/07/how-can-i-get-a-list-of-the-odbc-drivers-that-are-installed-on-a-computer.aspx
Thanks Shiven:) If Answer is Helpful, Please Vote

Hi S Kumar Dubey,
In SSIS, the Excel Source and Excel Destination natively use the Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider which is installed by SQL Server. The Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider deals with .xls files created by Excel 97-2003. To deal with .xlsx files created by
Excel 2007, we need the Microsoft ACE OLEDB Provider. SQL Server doesn’t install the Microsoft ACE OLEDB Provider, to get it we can install the
2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components or
Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable or Microsoft Office suit.
The drivers listed in the ODBC Data Source Administrator are ODBC drivers not OLEDB drivers, therefore, the Excel Source/Destination in SSIS won’t use the ODBC driver for Excel listed in it by default. On a 64-bit Windows platform, there are two versions
of ODBC Data Source Administrator. The 64-bit ODBC Data Source Administrator is C:\Windows\System32\odbcad32.exe, while the 32-bit one is C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe. The original 32-bit and 64-bit ODBC drivers are installed by the Windows operating system.
By default, there are multiple 32-bit ODBC drivers and fewer 64-bit ODBC drivers installed on a 64-bit platform. To get more ODBC drivers, we can install the 2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components or Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable.
Besides, please note that 2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components only install 32-bit ODBC and OLEDB drivers because it only has 32-bit version, but the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable has both 32- bit version and 64-bit
version.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Question regarding Calculated Key Figures in BEx and their impact on SQL

Hello,
I am new to BO SAP integration. I have a question regarding using CKF in BEx.
I created universe off of a BEx query with no CKF. I then created a Webi report with come dimensions and measures. I captured the SQL generated using trace (ST05).
In the same BEx, I then create a CKF. Then refreshed the universe and created a new Webi report using the same dimensions and the CKF. The SQL generated had many more select statements.
My question is what is the effect of CKF on the generated SQL and is there a performance issues using CKF in BEx as opposed to creating variables in Webi report?
Thanks,
Nikhil

Hi,
if your CKF will have always same unit and you have one KF in you inforpovider with this unit, you can try to do this trick
create a new hidden CKF as new CKF = KF / KF (with this equale new CKF = 1 unit)
change your old CKF as old CKF = old CKF * new CKF
let me know if it works.

Questions regarding PO output in SRM 4.0

Hi All
I have several questions regarding the settings for PO output in SRM 4.0 ( Ext. classic)
Would really appreciate if someone provides me the rationale and business reasons behind some config settings:
I am referring to BBP_PO_ACTION_DEF transaction in IMG
1) What is the difference between Processing when saving document & immediate processing. SHouldn't the PO output be always processed after the PO is changed and saved?
2) In the Determination technology what is the significance of the term ' Transportable conditions'. Why would it be different if the conditions were manual and not transportable?
3) In the Rule type what is the signifcance of Workflow conditions? How workflow controls the output?
4) What is the meaning of ' Action merging' in layman's terms and what do each of the choices like "Max. 1 Unprocessed Action for Each Processing Type" signify.
5) What powers do the 'changeable in dialog' & 'executable in dialog' indicators assign to the user processing the PO. What happens if these indicators are not set.
6) What does ' Archive mode' in processing type signify. Are the PO outputs archived and stored?
Regards
Kedar

Hello,
Have a look at note 564826. It has some information.
As far as I know, processing time 'Immediate Processing' is not allowed. I really don't know the reason.
"Processing Time" should be defined as "Process using Selection Report" when an output should be processed by a report, such as RSPPFPROCESS, for example.
If you set this as "Process when Saving document", then the output will be sent immediately, otherwise you have to process it with transaction BBP_PPF.
I hope I could help you a little.
Kind regards,
Ricardo

I have just got my iPad2 and very pleased with it. I have a question regarding the monthly (recommended) battery full charge. Should I let the battery completely die down to nothing at all or would this be bad for my iPad?

I have just got my iPad2 and am very pleased with it. I have a question regarding the monthly (recommended) battery full charge. Should I let the battery completely die down to nothing at all before I plug in to recharge or would this complete drain be bad for my iPad?

It's not bad for it - on this page www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html it says :
For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).

Several questions regarding File Vault

Hi!
I have several questions regarding File Vault - right now I'm using Mac OS 10.4.8
1.: The battery lock of my iBook is defect thus it happens from time to time that while transporting it the battery drops out while the laptop is sleeping. What happens with the File Vault-disk image?
2.: I want to (have to ) set up my Intel iMac again. The installer-CD I have will bring it back to 10.4.6
AFAIK the data format used for File Vault since 10.4.7 is version 2. What happens if I encrypt my stuff now (10.4.8 - thus version 2), back it up to my backup disc, install a new system (10.4.6 - therefore version 1) and want to access my data via Migration Manager (don't want to use archive and install)?
3.: How do I actually do a backup of my data while the system is running? The backup should be encrypted as well.
I use the demo-version of SuperDuper for backing up my system because with it I can ensure that I have a complete bootable backup of my running system.
Thanks for your answers in advance
ibook g4 12" 1.2 GHz 768 MB RAM / Intel iMac Core 2 Duo 17" 2.0 GHz 2GB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Parker,
You said:1. If it did, Apple would not use FileVault, as everyones computer will have a battery problem once in their life, and Apple would lose buisness from angry people who lost all of their data.I have seen enough reports of data loss with FileVault that I feel compelled to dispute your statement.
In Data corruption and loss: causes and avoidance, Dr. Smoke writes...If your data-security needs demand FileVault, you should backup your encrypted Home folder regularly, preferably daily. Like any hard drive or disk image, a Home folder protected by FileVault — an encrypted, sparse disk image — does not respond well to the causes of data corruption...Loss of power definitely is a cause of data corruption.
For Niels....,
An Unencrypted Look at FileVault, by François Joseph de Kermadec is an excellent discussion of the features, pitfalls, and cautions regarding Filevault.
Although the article discusses Panther and is dated 12/19/2003, the concepts as they apply Tiger have not changed.
The cautions and warnings are prominent in any of the Apple Knowledge Base articles referring to the use of FileVault. If a user is unfamiliar with any aspect of FileVault, it should not in my opinion be activated.
As good as FileVault is in protecting your sensitive data, it also presents the danger of locking up your files in an irretrievable ball of one's and zero's. Backups are critical. You must ensure that you have a comprehensive backup plan. Backup and Recovery, by Dr. Smoke is a fine example of what you need to consider.

Questions regarding RRI

Hi Folks,
I have two questions regarding RRI:
1) Is it possible to define jump by selecting more than one value of a fileld/variable ? My RRI is working with one value. But if I mark more than one value and goto jump, the new query just uses the first value from my selected list
2) Is it possible to jump to a workbook ?
Thanks

Hi,
1) Is it possible to define jump by selecting more than one value of a fileld/variable ? My RRI is working with one value. But if I mark more than one value and goto jump, the new query just uses the first value from my selected list
In RSBBS when you are defining the RRI you can choose the variables which are common in the reports to pass values to the next query.
2) Is it possible to jump to a workbook ?
No jump to a workbook is not possible.
regards,
Arvind.
