Reset deadlines of intermediate timer events from within the process

Hi
Is it possible to manipulate a Task completion deadline from another Event or Activity?
Example:
Human-Activity 1 has completion deadline 28.06.2010 which is saved in a data object do_deadline
Parallel, Human-Activity 2 has an output-mapping which resets do_deadline to 13.06.2010.
However, BPM does not recognice that do_deadline has changed after Human-Activity 2 has been executed and therefore does not change the deadline.
Do I have to remodel the process flow in order to end and restart the task in order to set the new deadline datetime values or is it possible to modify them directly?
Start
                       l
                       l
                       l
              Parallel Splitt
              l                  l
Human-Activity 1    Human Activity 2

Hi Harsha
Thanks, good to know that it does not work without restarting the task.
Of course two parallel tokens are created, and depending on one activitiy's choice for instance I'd like to influence the second activities deadline.
I did this with other BPM tools already but it actually makes sense that it does not work

Find out current old heap usage from within the process

Hello!
We use the CMS garbage collector and need a way to find out how much memory is used of the old heap by reachable objects. This we have to do from within the process (not using jvmstat or jstat etc.).
Since there is no way to distinguish between reachable and non-reachable objects (except for traversing the entire heap... -- or are there other possibilities?) our idea is to get the amount of used memory right after a garbage collection in the old heap.
Using Java 1.5, this can be done by
java.lang.management.MemoryPoolMXBean pool = <Pool for Old Generation>;
pool.getUsage().getUsed();However, java.lang.management is only available in Java 1.5.
Therefore my first question: Is there a similar way of finding out old heap usage in Java 1.4?
There is another problem with this method: By calling pool.getUsage().getUsed();, one has to know when a GC has occurred (this could be done by calling it in an interval of x seconds -- if the current value is lower than the one before, a GC must hava occurred). A better way would be to use pool.getCollectionUsage().getUsed();, but this seems not to work for the CMS collector.
Second question: Is pool.getCollectionUsage().getUsed(); really not working with CMS, or are we just doing it in a wrong way? Are there other ways of finding out the used memory in the old heap after a GC even when using the CMS?
Thanks for any help!
Regards,
Nicolas Michael

Hi Nicolas,
There is no API in 1.4 to get the after GC memory usage of the old generation. The only thing close to it is (Runtime.totalMemory - Runtime.freeMemory) but it is the approx amount of memory used for the heap (not just the old generation).
MemoryPoolMXBean.getCollectionUsage() returns the after GC MemoryUsage. This method should work for all collectors. I have a simple test case that shows it working fine with CMS. It shows the same value as the -XX:+PrintGCDetails shows.
If you have a test case showing that this method doesn't work correctly, please submit a bug along with the test case. We'll investigate it.
Thanks

Is it possible to trigger the next event from within the event case?

I have a rather complicated event that is triggered by a change in value of a particular button in the interface. In some cases, I want to alter that button's value when handling other events. But when I do this, the event handling a change in value for that button does not get triggered. Is there a way to make sure the value change event gets handled at the next iteration of the while loop in which the event structure sits?
Solved!

Hi Mike,
Thanks! I was using properties and did not previously know what the value(signaling) was. Knowing this will really help me clean up a lot of redundant code.

Raise event from within process chain

Is there some way to easily raise an event from within a process chain? The only way I know to do this is to run an ABAP program that raises the event.

Hi Shashank,
sorry for the delay: I didn't notice your question. Try this way.
1 - define ABAP Report Z_EVENT_RAISER (see sample code below)
2 - define a variant for this Report (Event Name mandatory)
3 - Call ABAP Report Z_EVENT_RAISER from within your Proces Chain.
This should work
Hope it helps

To transfer time events from external time recording system to sap r/3

hi all,
I have a task to make an interface program between external time recording and sap r/3, and then to transfer the time events from that external system to sap system with the help of an rfc, i have got some information like the data first has to be transferred to the table CC1TEV and then from this table the data will be uploaded to 2011 infotype with the help of a standard program, but i am unable to find a solution for making the interface program and the RFC or BAPI which will transfer the records from external system.
if anybody has any information on this plz help me out to solve this problem.

Which recorgding terminals using to capture time events? They should have give some guidelines about this?

Calling User Preference event from within portlet

Not sure if anybody else has looked at this but we are in the process of rolling out a new G6 Portal and on a number of portlets want to take advantage of the ability to turn off the portlet header. However in doing so you loose access to the inbuilt support for providing access to the User Preference, if one has been defined as part of the portlet definition. This is relevant on a number of portelts that we want to migrate to the new G6 portal.
So rather than try and re-invent this from scratch using a different 'link' in the portlet itself we were wondering if you can 'call' the inbuilt user preference functionality from within the portlet code. i.e. When a user clicks on the link within the portlet it performs exactly the same action and interaction within the portal as if they clicked on the User Preference icon in the portlet header.
We have had a look around to see if this is possible but not come up with anything yet so thought we would seek comments from this forum.
Many thanks in advance,
Ross Ellard

Hey Ross,
I just realized I have to do the same thing on a very limited scale (3-5 portlets).
SO I just wrote a little bit of (shoddy) code to show community preferences based on group membership.
It works for me, but I get the feeling your looking for something like communityactionsdata geared toward portlets, which unfortunately I dont think exists. If you put it in as an enhancement request then support will contact you to discuss your options.
Here is the code that I'm using for now:
<pt:standard.choose>
<pt:standard.when pt:test="stringToACLGroup('group=1,755,760;').isMember($currentuser)">
<immg border="0" src="htttp://localhost/imageserver/plumtree/portal/public/img/action_portlet_edit.gif">
</pt:standard.when>
</pt:standard.choose>
The only problem is that the preferences submit button refreshes the popup to the portal. So I might need to tweak that a hair so it just closes the popup.

Whenever I use the trackpad on my 17" Macbook Pro (2010 model) there is a small, trebly processor sound coming from within the enclosure.

Whenever I use my trackpad, there is a whirring, trebly sound coming from within the computer itself. It happens also when webpages are loaded or programs are compiled, but not when I use the keyboard or when the computer is in disuse. It has become louder over time, and it is obvious that when the computer senses input from the trackpad and must translate it, the sound is produced. Is there any way to reset the firmware or an option on the Settings menu that could perhaps help? I am concerned that it is a symptom of a larger problem. Thanks.

The question mark means the computer cannot find a bootable volumes so can;t do anything, That, combined with annoying sounds, strongly suggests a failed hard drive.
You can ask a "genius" at an Apple Rtail Store to test it but I'm pretty sure the drive is kaput. I'm hoping you had your data backed up.

Create fixed assets from within the transaction for creating the purchase order

Hello All,
I have gone through the notes on help.sap.com related to automatic creation of asset master record at the time of creating purchase order. I am not sure how do we achieve this?
Link to the notes on help.sap.com

Any suggesstions from the expert group is appreciated.
Thank you,

Hi Vinay
I know there is a feature whereby you assign asset classes per material group and then you create assets from within the PO. I never used it though
Let me tell you one thing or rather ask you. Will you as a finance consultant be willing to let a MM guy create the assets??
Or will a MM guy be willing to create it?? If you allow them, you should be ready for surprises.
Honestly, this is a feature not worth exploring unless a FI guy is willing to create the PO. I would suggest the creation of asset masters should be with FI only

since a long time I am searching for information on how to implement an RFC call from within the VMC. The problem is that we have implemented several (p)functions in ABAP and we need to implement them in JAVA.

Hi Freeto,
This may be due to the Network Failures.
If you have triggered a job then because of the Network fluctuations the system may not respond properly and cannot execute the job.
So, this is the cause for the failure.

Calling a concurrent request from within the trigger

Oracle apps r12.
Calling a concurrent request from within the trigger.
Does it requre apps initilization.
Thanks,
Lavan

Hi,
Whether apps initialization needed or not will depend on followings
1. Trigger is written on which table seeded or custom. In case of seeded tables, there is no need for apps initialization (although oracle does not recommend writing trigger on seeded tables).
2. Triggering Table Update/Insert/Delete event processing is done from apps front end or Backend. In case of front end apps initialization is not required.

How to refer to enclosing instance from within the member class?

Hi
How to refer to the enclosing instance from within the member class?
I have the following code :
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class MyDialog extends Dialog
     public MyDialog(Frame fr,boolean modal)
          super(fr,modal);
          addWindowListener(new MyWindowAdapter());
     public void paint(Graphics g)
          g.drawString("Modal Dialogs are sometimes needed...",10,10);
     class MyWindowAdapter extends WindowAdapter
          public void windowClosing(WindowEvent evt)
               //MyDialog.close(); // is this right?
In the above code, how can I call the "close()" method of the "Dialog" class (which is the enclosing class) from the inner class?
Thanks in advance.
Senthil.

Hi Senthil,
You can directly call the outer class method. Otherwise use the following way MyDialog.this.close(); (But there is no close() method in Dialog!!)
If this is not you expected, give me more details about problem.

Launch Copy Package for OWNERSHIP app from within the FINANCE app

Is it possible to launch the standard COPY package from within another application?
My case is:
I have an OWNERSHIP application with the standard dimensions ENTITY,TIME,CATEGORY,OWNACCOUNT,INTCO. I would like to copy my ownership data from one period to another as it is faster than doing data input for all my entities
Now the challenge:
I would like to launch this standard COPY package that copies OWNERSHIP data from within the FINANCE application. Otherwise the user always needs to switch from applications.
I know it was possible in v4, but I seem to forget something when trying it v7.0 SP7.
Any help is much appreciated

Dear Shoba,
I tried the following macro
Sub copytest()
Application.Run ("MNU_eData_SelectPackage(""Copy"",""system files/Copy.dtsx"",""Company"",""Ownership"")")
End Sub
When I was in the legalapp, copy package was opened but with the dimensions of the legalapp
When I changed of to the ownership and tried the macro again, it gave me the good dimensions, but that was not the purpose
When I copied the package and changed the %APP%ù it didnt work either
I even changed %dim% to ownaccount,time,category,legalentity,intco and then the good dimensions appeared when launching the package but he gave an error when selection ownaccount, as it is not a dimension of the legalapp.
Do you see other possibilities?

Benjamin

Change display language of smartform from within the smartform itself

Hi!
The smartform is invoked to display from the standard with some language, which we want to change.
We can't change calling code (because it's standard).
Is it possible to change the displaying language of a smartform from within the smartform. Say, "Initialization" section?

Hi Concern,
We can change language at run time. With following way.
1.    Define a variable and allocate language u want to langu fields.
DATA lV_CT_PARA TYPE SSFCTRLOP.
Here LV_lang contain the language u want to assign.
LV_CT_PARA-LANGU = LV_LANG.
2. Pass it to smart form.
CALL FUNCTION FM_NAME
    EXPORTING
ARCHIVE_INDEX              =
ARCHIVE_INDEX_TAB          =
ARCHIVE_PARAMETERS         =
   CONTROL_PARAMETERS         = LV_CT_PARA
MAIL_APPL_OBJ              =
MAIL_RECIPIENT             =

Registration from within the product doesn't work?

Hi!
I bought a pre-installed license of photoshop and acrobat with my computer. I registered both products to my Adobe ID when I started the programs for the first time.
But only Photoshop 11 shows up there and now shows me a serial number of the product.
The Acrobat program works fine and seems to be registered (at least it doesn't ask for registration anymore), but doesn't show up in my account.
So I don't get a serial number this way. The seller (Sony Online Store) tells me that they don't hand out any serial numbers since the pre-installed programs are supposed the register automatically (as photoshop indeed did).
I tried to get help from Adobe Support, but they just keep asking me about the serial number ... instead of telling me how to get it ... or why the registration from within the product works fine for one product but not for the other.
So what can I do?
Cheers,
Martin

You might check with the Kim Komando site about reading your SN. It is strange that Sony will not give it to you. If you ever have to reinstall it, you will need the SN. Also, I recommend you backup the installation file for these programs (you may have to download the trials) so that you have them for the future. It may be that they are on a CD or separate HD partition and that would be fine. However, it is always a good idea to have a backup of software you own for any time you need to reinstall for some reason (if you read the posts on this forum very much, you find a lot of folks reinstalling or trying to find the software they did not backup so they can reinstall on a new computer or replacement HD after a crash).

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then see if this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then try Apple ID Account Security
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
