Refresh used component display by ABAP code in another used component

Hi,
I have a contract (WEB UI component 'IUCONH') which contains used components, among others: actions ('GSACTIONS') and attachments ('GS_CM'). I enhanced the GSACTIONS so that it changes the content of contract attachments programatically (changing documents by use of BOL: status of documents, deleting...). However, although the backend content changes, the GS_CM UI component doesn't know that and doesn't change the list of the displayed documents till user refreshes the browser. If attachments' view is expanded for the first time after the action has been taken, then it displays correct content (obviously, due to 'lazy' initialization).
I need to initiate frontend refresh of one used component from another (that is, the program within GSACTIONS should initiate refresh in GS_CM).
How can I do this?
Thanks in advance!
KR,
Igor

Hi Igor,
You can call publish_current( ) method on your context node at the place where you programmatically change the content to make them reflect directly. The syntax will be as follows:
me->typed_context-><node_name>->collection_wrapper->publish_current( ).
Replace <node_name> with the node where you change the data.
Try this and check if it works.

Using BAPI's in ABAP code

Hi bapi Guru's,
I am asked to use bapi's(Instead of BDC's) for data upload .I am not getting good documentation on 'USING BAPI's IN ABAP',Like Defining structures, and what are the FM's to be called like bapi_commit.
Any Info is Appriciated.
Regards
satish

Sorry Satish,
Maybe this is going off topic a little, bit perhaps also its relevant as you have been asked to move from BDC's to BAPIs.
Juan,
When I talk about debugging, there are two levels to this:
1. Debugging by the programmer
In this case, how can it be easier to debug an error from a BAPI than from the screen? For a sales order, for example, when you enter a delivery date of 01.01.2000 for an item, via BDC you will get an error message as the item is entered (something along the lines of delivery date is in the past), and you will see exactly the date you have entered, and if you don't understand the error, you can click on F1 and it will give you the long description of the error. Via a BAPI, you would get the error message, and you MIGHT get the item number and the date in question. But if you don't understand the error what do you do then? Debug the BAPI itself? You could, but isn't this a rather lengthy way to get to the root of the problem? In general, any errors you get calling BAPIs/BDCs are errors with your master data, or breaking business rules, you shouldn't have to debug standard code to tell you whats going wrong, the application can tell you.
2. Debugging by the end user
When you implement a BAPI/BDC this will be related to an interface/automated transaction etc. When its in production you will occassionally get errors (due to bad master data, not fully capturing all the business logic in your custom coding [it happens], technical issues etc.) What do you do then? In the case of BDC you can do nothing. The error is recorded, and you can get end users to process the errors by stepping through the screens (which they already know how to use) and make corrections as required. In the case of BAPIs, you have to record the error in a table or a file, then develop some kind of interface to display the errors, then develop some kind of process for re-processing the errors. If the data used to call the BAPI is not correct then you also need to provide a facility for changing the data before reprocessing. Normally you do none of this because its too much work and you end up having all errors coming back to the SAP team who have to debug and change table entries etc. to get it all to work. I would not say that this makes BAPIs easier to debug.
Oops, just realised my pasta is burning!!!
Anyway, think I got my point across. Not personal but feel quite strongly about this topic. To me BDC's are still a relevant tool despite the push for Idocs/BAPIs.
Cheers,
Brad

ABAP code which will use function module during field mapping in LSMW

Hi,
During field mapping in LSMW, for one of the field called field, I want to use a function module 'QF05_RANDOM_INTEGER', which will generate random numbers and map that random number to that field.
How do I write ABAP code which uses function module, during filed mapping for a particluar field in LSMW ?
Please help...
Regards,
Tushar.

Hi Tushar,
You can write in FORM ROUTINE and LSMW.
I hope you know how to write ABAP code at field level.
If not ...
Come to change mode->select the field->Rule->ABAP Code
write a perform statement in ABAP code at field level.
PERFORM test using val
 changing valu.
Go to Utilities(at menu)->switch layout-> extras ->select Layout->check Form routine-> it will display a FORM Routine... at bottom
this is the place where you can write some code for
 FORM test using value
 changing value1
FM call....
.ENDFORM
Get the value1 returned and use for the Field population.
Reward points if this Helps.

Can I use OLAP variable in ABAP Code of infoobject filter

I have 0FISCPER infoobject in filter section of info-package while loading data.

Writing to BI on demand using http request in ABAP code

Hi Gurus
I am getting ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED error when I execute a program which contains HTTPS request. The purpose of the program is to write in bi.demand.com. The HTTP error code is 400.
Also in SMICM I get the following error:
ERROR => NiBufIConnect: non-buffered connect pending after 5000ms (hdl 29;XX.XXXXX.com:443) [nibuf.cpp 4611]

Hi Sunny,
None of this looks familiar to me. What is the url that you are trying to request?
Are there potentially any proxy servers between your machines and the internet that need to be configured into your application?

thats where you are going to check what it is supposed to be.
lets say your page shows as SSOL Status : running you
probably want to use "if($totalstrng.ToLower().contains("ssqlL status
: running"))". its
checking if the html page contains the string you are looking for.
you might want to print $totalstrng
and see what you need to look for.
usign XMLHttp
or XML object as mentioned by JRV might be easier and faster way.

Intercompany wire transfers from 1 company code to another using FRFT_B

HI all
There is a current requirement in our project to do intercompany wire trnasfers.Since they need to do a repetitive wires between company codes they want to use OT81 and then use FRFT_B for making bank transfers.
I get an error message stating that the it is not possible to transfer from 1 company code to an other situated in different countries,does not have the same parallel currency or extended withholding tax activated for 1 and not for an other.This looks like a standard error message.
I also tried using the bank chain facility and though I am able to create a repetitive code I am not able to use the bank transfer from 1 company code to an other.
Please help and provide me with any documentation or thoughts that you have in making this work.
Regards

so do you say, if i copy over the company code, i still need to do configuration, in that case, i did not understand the use of copy. i was thinking, if i copy most of configurations ( default) of the source will be copied over to new cc

ABAP Code example using "GENERATE DYNPRO"

I am looking for ABAP code example who use the "Generate dynpro" dynamic generation of dynpro at runtime under SAP 4.6C version.
Best regards,

We have some programs that do:
form %view.
data: anz type i,
      prog like sy-repid.
prog = sy-repid.
perform init_download(rsaqexce).
case %tab.
when 'G00'.
    perform generate_view_dynpro(rsaqexce)
            using prog text-grl.
    describe table %g00 lines anz.
    tview100-lines = anz.
    perform init_view(rsaqexce) tables %g00 using tview100.
    call screen 100.
    perform reset_view_dynpro(rsaqexce).
when others.
    message s860(aq).
endcase.
endform.
I think they were copied from existing SAP programs. In any event, look at the relevant forms in program rsaqexce.
And as Rich noted, SAP doesn't recommend this.

In Transaktion SCOT I checked the SAPconnect-Node "INT"-"SMTP".
There is a mailserver with the right IP und the right Port. So I don't understand
what could be the problem!?
Can anybody help me and say me why the code below doesn't works?

SAP is a robust system, which gives many facilities in the form of Function Modules (FMs) for connecting to external systems or for use within the system. With a clever use of these FMs we can achieve a lot of things through ABAP code.
This article focuses on ways to send E-mails and SAP Mails using ABAP code.
Firstly SAP Mail
A SAP mail is a mail internal to the SAP system. It is a very good forum to exchange information with other users. Using a SAP mail in ABAP code facilitates exchange of automatic messages at various stages of the business process. It is easy to use and saves many hassles involved in using workflows for exchanging messages.
The ABAP code to send a sap mail is built around the FM SO_OBJECT_SEND which has the following pattern.
call function 'SO_OBJECT_SEND'
exporting
EXTERN_ADDRESS = ' '
FOLDER_ID = ' '
FORWARDER = ' '
OBJECT_FL_CHANGE = ' '
OBJECT_HD_CHANGE = ' '
OBJECT_ID = ' '
OBJECT_TYPE = ' '
OUTBOX_FLAG = ' '
OWNER = ' '
STORE_FLAG = ' '
DELETE_FLAG = ' '
SENDER = ' '
CHECK_ALREADY_SENT = ' '
importing
object_id_new =
sent_to_all =
tables
OBJCONT =
OBJHEAD =
OBJPARA =
OBJPARB =
receivers =
PACKING_LIST =
ATT_CONT =
ATT_HEAD =
NOTE_TEXT =
exceptions
active_user_not_exist = 1
communication_failure = 2
component_not_available = 3
folder_not_exist = 4
folder_no_authorization = 5
forwarder_not_exist = 6
note_not_exist = 7
object_not_exist = 8
object_not_sent = 9
object_no_authorization = 10
object_type_not_exist = 11
operation_no_authorization = 12
owner_not_exist = 13
parameter_error = 14
substitute_not_active = 15
substitute_not_defined = 16
system_failure = 17
too_much_receivers = 18
user_not_exist = 19
x_error = 20

Once all the parameters and table interfaces are properly filled, call the function module to send the SAP mail to the recipient inbox.
Care should be taken to report the status of execution of the function module to the user using one of the exceptions defined (refer function module pattern above)
Though SAP mail is a very robust method of interacting with users within SAP system, it is always good to receive email in Microsoft inbox. This also works like an additional notification to users in case they do not check SAP mail regularly. The next article covers sending E-mails using ABAP.
Sending Email to a non-SAP system:
Though SAP mail is a very robust method of interacting with users within SAP system, it is always good to receive email in Microsoft inbox. This also works like an additional notification to users in case they do not check SAP mail regularly.
Sending an email to the Microsoft Inbox is a way of interacting with a non SAP system through ABAP code and hence is very interesting. A fair knowledge of UNIX shell scripting is assumed here.
The ABAP code to send an email to Microsoft inbox revolves around following UNIX script
Echo "From:" "<"$1">" > <unix file path name>
Echo "To:" "<"$2">" >> <unix file path name>
Echo "Subject:" "<"$3">" >> <unix file path name>
Cat $4 >> <unix file path name>
Uuencode $5 $6 >> <unix file path name>
Cat <unix file path name> | /usr/sbin/sendmail f $fraddr $toaddr
(Note : the commands in the above script can be case sensitive. Check the actual case on the unix installation in question)
Let us understand the various parts of the above script.
$1 = Sender email address
$2 = Recipient email address
$3 = Subject of the email
$4 = Path of unix server file having email body
Form email body as an internal table in ABAP program, download it to a unix server file
$5 = Path of unix server file to be sent as email attachment
$6 = Name to be given to the attachment (like test1.doc, test1.xls). The corresponding Microsoft icon
will be shown in the email for the type of file attached ( Word document, excel document etc)
The script builds a temporary file and pipes the file to the sendmail command to achieve the mission.
This script can be invoked from SAP to send the mail to the intended recipient. Store this small script on the unix server. (Assume script name is sndmail )
To do this we should define a link in the SAP system between a customized command and this unix script.
The FM to define a customized command in SAP system has the following pattern.
call function 'SXPG_CALL_SYSTEM'
exporting
commandname =
PARAMETERS = ' '
importing
status =
tables
exec_protocol =
exceptions
no_permission = 1
command_not_found = 2
parameters_too_long = 3
security_risk = 4
wrong_check_call_interface = 5
program_start_error = 6
program_termination_error = 7
x_error = 8
parameter_expected = 9
too_many_parameters = 10
illegal_command = 11
others = 12.
In the next article we will understand the main parameters and table interfaces of the FM.
Import Parameters Name and Description Field name Field function
Commandname Name of unix shell script or command to be executed by SAP Name of unix shell script to be invoked
Parameters The parameters to be sent to unix shell script ($1, $2 etc). Send parameters as a concatenated string separated by space and length not exceeding 128 characters For eg in UNIX environment the above shell script would be executed as Sndmail [email protected] [email protected] Trial /home/test.doc testmail.We will be simulating this command using the FM from SAP system
Table Parameters Name and Description Field Name Field function
Exec_protocol (structure) Table to get messages from unix server after shell script is executed Length Length of the message from external program i.e unix
 Message Log message from external program i.e unix
Export Parameters Name and Description Field name Field function
Status Contains the status of execution of external program Scheduling status of external program i.e unix
Once the above FM is invoked with the necessary parameters the unix program sendmail will send a mail to the inbox of the recipient in Microsoft.
The restriction on the parameter string length of 128 characters can be removed to make way for very long email addresses and subjects. Build the parameters into an internal table and download it as a file on the unix server. Instead of passing each parameter individually, pass the unix server path of this file as the parameter to the unix shell script (sndmail mentioned above). Modify the shell script to read every line of this parameter file as variables to be used in the shell script.
In the next article we will see an example of the ABAP code you can use to send SAP Mails.

Reg: ABAP code for customer exit variable

Hi Team,
I have a requirement to create a report based on an multiprovider 'TEST'.
Based on the input selection of Period; I need to define a Keyfigure X which will be a count of value available for that Period in one cube involved in the MProvider. E.g.: If for period 12, the value = 1 in the cube; then this keyfigure will give the count as 1 in the output of the report.
The second KF Y values are available in the second infocube directly: ibut should be displayed based on the value of the KF 'X' with logic as if X > 0 ; then the values should be read from the second infocube in the report. & if X <= 0; no values should be displayed.
Please help me with the ABAP code to be used in the query level.
Thanks & Regards
Sneha

Hi Sneha,
I would suggest the following
1.Please change the design the cube and include a key figure Zcount that would be incremented for each record.
Now as per the first requirement you need to get the count for a Input Period from First cube
This would be very simple to implement , all you have to do is restrict this KF with the Input characteristic/variable and also the First Infocube.
2.You can also use exception aggreation counter to address this requirement . Even in this case you need to include a dummy key figure in the cube and the exception characteristic would be the period in the Infocube.
But performance would be on downside when compared to the first one.
3.The second requirement is quite simple
Create a formula KF as follows
(KF1 > 0)*KF2 .
KF1 > 0 is a logical operation and it would always return 1 on success and 0 otherwise.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
James Harold.

Can Adobe Premiere run on 2013 Mac Book Pro (thunderbolt port) and display on 2010 iMac (Mini DisplayPort) using TDM. TB cable Opt. F2 didn't work. Will a Mini Display cable work?

I need to work on Adobe Premiere on my 2013 Mac Book Pro (with thunderbolt port) and display it on my 2010 iMac (with Mini DisplayPort) using Target Display Mode (TDM). I tried using a thunderbolt cable plus Option F2, but it didn't work. Will a Mini Display cable work? Any other suggestions?

2010 iMacs do not have Thunderbolt, they have mini-display ports. You are using the wrong connection, you need a mini display port to mini display port. Please read up on what Apple says in Target Display Mode: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

DataTrigger : can it be used for other pl/sql code than before and after?

Hi,
I was wondering whether the <dataTrigger ...../> can also be used for other PL/SQL code than just using it for the beforeReport, afterReport and stuf.
Just now I placed a call to it in the datastructure, as last entry in a group (for headers f.i.), called it AfterHeaderTrigger, and called a function in a package.
It didn't fail, but I dont think it excecuted it though.
So, can you do that?
thanks
Ronny

thanks, that's what I thought.
It's a shame, it would have been so cool.
thanks
Ronny

How to insert a new line item in VA01/VA02 by using ABAP code?

Hi Gurus
i have a very tough requirement. the customer wants to insert a free goods after an item has been populated in VA01/VA02 automatically according to some certain rules. the input material may be a main material of a sales BOM.
for example. let's suppose there is a material A who has two sub-material B and C which is maintained in a sales BOM via CS01/CS02. when the material A has been input in the line item in VA01/VA02, its quantity input and after the ENTER key has been clicked, another material D may be displayed in a new line as a gift if the condition met. the condition relates to customer/material/quanity and these information are stored in a Z-table.
on the other hand, if the material A is only a single material(not a BOM), the gift(material D) will also be filled automatically if the condition met.
i have already enhance the FM cs_bom_explosion to filfill the requirment for BOM materials. whereas it is very hard to find the enhanment point for the single material.
so my question is where is the correct place for me to insert the ABAP code, which decides whether the gift should be given or not and furthermore inserts the new line item into XVBAP. i tried to use MV45AFZZ, whereas the data is always inconsistant if a new line has been inserted. it is very strange that there is no temperary internal table storing line item data input in the table controal of VA01/VA02. system reads the line item data , line by line, via a system kernal function call.
any hints are welcome. thanks

HI Stephen,
I have the same prolem. I modified the 5 global tables, but I don't see the new line in the screen.
Can you help me with some details?
Thx!
Mihaela
