RFC Groups - Where Used?

Hi,
I currently have the standard generated 'parallel_generators' RFC Groups in my system but also have 2 others, for which I do not know why they were created or what uses them.
I have used RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN to try and find any hard coded usage with no results found and also struggled to 'decode' the variants tables VARI etc to find usage in Variants.
But what I actually want is a 'Where Used' for RFC Groups.
Does anyone know a comprehensive solution to this or alternative analysis method?
Thanks and Regards
Ash

Hi Ash,
Same with the "Where used list" (I mean, it will be tedious to go to each program and identify).
Basically, the logon group info is stored on the RZLLITAB table. What distinguishes it if it's a dialog or an RFC type is the field group type (that is, if it's 'S' then it's an RFC group). There are several function modules and programs that uses this info. One of the common ones that SAP is using is the function module SMLG_GET_DEFINED_GROUPS (or SPBT_INITIALIZE). This function module determine if it's an RFC or dialog. As you've might have seen, there are several functions / programs that uses this (and they use the info returned by this function module to load balance either dialog and RFC processes).
Basically, to somewhat answer your query: There's no absolute "Where used list" since a developer can hardcode the query to the database for this table (and not have it part of the variants or other tables). Looking particularly for the server groupname (that shows up on the RZ12 transaction) on the ABAP codes is tedious. Not to mention the fact that a developer can also hardcode the server groupname on an external program that does an RFC (thus you will not see this in the SAP/ABAP system even if it has the "Where used list").
Thanks,
Allaine

Where used in web templates for parameter groups

Does SAP deliver any where used functionality for parameter groups? I need a report or function that can take as input a parameter group (fully qualified) and deliver back all the web layouts and planning folders that the parameter group (or for that matter global planning sequence) is used.
I can find the XML of the web templates but that is a bear to parse and have not found the tables that show the details of planning folders (if any).

Hello Corwin,
we don't have a where-used functionality but in SAP NetWeaver 2004s you can use programs UPC_CUSTOMIZING (for BPS0), UPB_CUSTOMIZING (for folders) and UPWB_CUSTOMIZING (for web interfaces) to display and search through the configuration. It's one folder or web interface at a time but it's certainly quicker than doing it manually.

RFC Function module's where used list

Dear Experts,
I have a situation where in I need to change certain parameters/ the logic of an RFC function module. but before making the changes to the function module I need to know where this function module is used in various systems. So can some one tell me a way to find the where used list of an RFC function module in the calling system.
Thanks
-Amit

It could be called from anywhere, theoretically, SAP or non-SAP environments.
I hope you can rely on good documentation in your organization to find the potential callers, as each call must have been consciously implemented at some point.
Also check with system administrators who might have a means to study trace logs for information on calling systems.
Thomas
P.S. the hard way would be to just do the change and see who complains later on

Thank u vvery much for ur response,
In RFC can we use SUBMIT statement?
I had a doubt Please clarify me.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Lakshman,
I am facing similar situation like Ravi.
I am using Submit program inside RFC function module in BW.
And one point here, I am using EXPORT and IMPORT memory IDs in the same RFC to retrive data in BW.
I am calling this from R3.
In BW it is working fine, where as in R3 nothing is coming.
Please help me.
Thanks,

XK01 Account group 0003 uses ext no assignment Specify account number

Hi
When I am trying to create one time vendor in XK01 , after filling all fields (except vendor , when I click the enter I am getting the following error .
"Account group 0003 uses ext no assignment Specify account number "
Any idea where should I specify account number and what is this account number ? I mean is it GL account number ?
Thanks
SN

Hi Satya,
if you donot want to assign the external number range to the vendors.....use T.code XKN1..remove the tickmark from checkbox "EXT" and save.
Try creating again. The problem occurs because you have selected external number ranges for vendors in XKN1.

Decreasing amount of RFC-Destinations when using UD-Connect?

Hello,
I created an RFC-Destination in sm59 as well as JCO RFC Provider and used the SAP manual for UD-Connect/JDBC to a "foreign" Sybase-DB. The Connection is working properly and all DB-data is accessible, but our cutomer claims that there are more than 25 parallel rfc-connections from our Web AS to his Sybase-DB. My question is: How can I decrease the amount of parallel connections, because I don't think 25 connections to Sybase-DB are necessary. I know there is the maxConnection-Property in JCO RFC Provider but this parameter is globally affecting all RFC-connections and not only those that are associated with the Sybase-DB.
Is there actually a way to customize the amount of parallel connection via JDBC?
Best regards
Danny

Hi,
use transaction "smqs", select destination and click on registration change max number of connections.
Try to define rfc server group to control connections ...

we cant group by using alias in this situation what shud i do ?
Thanks in advance

If you want to group by using the added new columns as well, then all you need to do is - put the full CASE statements into group by clause without alias.
But if you do not want to group by your data based on the added new columns then you can use the inline view and do the group by first based on first 2 columns and then do the CASE afterwards.
Also, one error I noticed in the give query is that you are doing COUNT on the column E.ACTV_CDE which is also your group by column - E.ACTV_CDE. This means that you will always receive 1 as count for each actv_cde as you are doing the grouping on the same column.

Hi Tim,
Let’s verify the followings:
Whether this issue occurred for other lists in the same site.
Whether this issue occurred for all users who don’t have full control.
Whether this issue occurred on other sites.
When you created the people & group column, which show field did you used? Please try to use a different show field for the people & group column, compare the result.
In addition, please check if the link is useful:

Extensibility Pack 3.7 Now Available, including new and improved Where Used Tools

We are pleased to announce the general availability of Agile PLM for Process Extensibility Pack (EP) 3.7 as of January 14th. This feature pack includes the following important enhancements:
Reporting Pack: We introduce a series of BI Publisher based reports focused on providing visibility to information throughout the product hierarchy. The reports are…
Where Used – Parents lists all parent specifications where a given specification is associated. Quickly see how many hierarchies are affected by a single raw material. This report respects all application security, so if a user doesn’t have read access to a specification they will not see that specification listed. Also the report can be run from the hierarchy navigator making the report easy to access.
Where Used – Parents and Children lists all parents and their children where a given specification is associated. For performance reasons this report does not respect GSM security and therefore is considered an administration report and should be made available to a small group of trusted users.
Supporting Document Review report allows you to quickly see all supporting documents within a specification hierarchy including supplier documents stored in SCRM. For example, when you are on a given finished good you can quickly review all SCRM supplier documents found on associated specifications or objects without leaving the trade specification.
Supplier Review report allows a user to quickly see all suppliers involved within a specification hierarchy. You can quickly see all of the suppliers involved, their status, when their next scheduled audit date is and quality issues reported against them.
Open Issues By Hierarchy report allows a user to quickly see all outstanding and historical PQM issues associated with a specification hierarchy.
Extensibility Pack: Extensible enhancements provide technical tools to aid in the creation of custom solutions or integrations. In this release we introduce…
Attachments Web Service provides operations to get attachment files and rich text values of GSM specifications, and SCRM companies, facilities, and sourcing approvals. The following operations are supported by the AttachmentService:
GetAttachment
GetAttachmentJson
GetRichText
GetRichTextJson
WHERE: AGILE PLM FOR PROCESS EXTENSIBILITY PACK 3.7 is available on MOS (My Oracle Support). Patch Request #: 17921825.
Enjoy,

Program to find the where used

Hi All,
I want to find out where the particular field is used that includes programs , function modules and user exits.
Is there any function module for this.
Please help me out.
Thanks in Advance,
Praveen

Hello Praveen
Most of the ABAP Workbench Infosystem Where-used list is implemented by function module RS_EU_CROSSREF.
FU RS_EU_CROSSREF
Short Text
     ABAP Workbench Infosystem Where-used list
   Functionality
     This function searches for other usages of an object. Both object
     classes are specified in the IMPORT parameters. If no object class is
     specified for the search area, a selection of possible object classes is
     offered to the user. If there is only one possible object class, this is
     used in the search. The result is placed in a table with the structure
     RSFINDLST. There, you can also find the possible object classes. The
     object classes refer to the classes used in the Workbench.
   Example
     Usage of domain 'EXAMPLE' in tables.
       Object type of domains in the Workbench is 'DD_'.
       Object type of tables in the Workbench is 'DT_'.
       The following IMPORT parameters are thus specified:
       IMPORTING
             I_FIND_OBJ_CLS = 'DD_'
             I_SCOPE_OBJ_CLS = 'DT_'
       TABLES
             I_FINDSTRINGS = 'EXAMPLE'
     Although you can pass several domains, the result table O_FOUNDS does
     not make it clear which domain is used in which table. This
     functionality supports recursivity.
Parameters
     I_FIND_OBJ_CLS
     I_SCOPE_OBJ_CLS
     REKURSIV
     I_ANSWER
     I_ACTUAL_INCLUDE
     NO_DIALOG
     EXPAND_SOURCE_IN_BATCH_MODE

     I_SCOPE_OBJECTS
     I_ACTUAL_SOURCE
     I_SCOPE_OBJECT_CLS
     I_SCOPE_DEVCLASS
     I_EXCLUDE_SCOPE_OBJECT_CLS
Exceptions
     NOT_EXECUTED
     NOT_FOUND

Where used report

Dear Experts,
We are using CS15 to display the where used list for a single component . We want to see the where used report for some 1000 components at a stretch and hope there is no standard report for this . Please give us the relevant table where both the component and header material are stored together or tables relative to CS15.

Hi
These are the tables used in CS15
AENR Change Master
MARC Plant Data for Material
MC29M Material Master Record Table: BOMs - Group Data
MC29S Material Master Record Table: Bills of Material
MTCOM Material Master Communication
MTCOR Material Master View: Return Codes
RC29L BOM Display input/output table
T001W Plants/Branches
TC04 Applic-Specific Criteria for Alternative Determination
TCC08 Engineering Change Management: Control Data
TCS03 Modification Parameters/Defaults for BOMs
TCS41 Automatic alternative BOM determination
TCSPR User Profile for BOMs
TCSVL User defaults list display (variable lists)
USR02 Logon Data (Kernel-Side Use)

Where used FM user exits

Hi.
In 4.6 when I had a FM (e.g. EXIT_SAPLE10M_001), when I did where used I got the source when this exit was called ( if showed as call customer-function '10' )
But In ECC 6.0 this option is no longer valid? Where used option brings me no results.
Anyone knows how this can be overiden?
Using modsap table & smod does not help since I do get the FM name but stilll the "where used" isn't working.
Thanks
Ariel Fisher

I don't know why this is not working, but the Exit function is still valid.
in the main program SAPLE10M the Exit function is used.
i just searched for CALL CUSTOMETR-FUNCTION globally inside the program SAPLE10M(Function group main program) i got the below one.
* Call user-exit...
CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION '001'

Business Address Services (BAS) and Where-Used ADRV/ADRVP

Can someone point out any good sources of information on Business Address Services or possibly its predecessors either online or hard-print? I've been through the help.sap.com information for BAS and all sorts of SAPNotes without finding what I'm looking for.
In particular I'm trying to understand default SAP's usage of the Where-Used links in BAS that are stored in the tables ADRV and ADRVP.
My Issue: If I create a Sales Document in SAP referencing a partner address stored in BAS there is no Where-Used ADRV record created. So I cannot use the address number of the ADRC record to find which documents are referencing it via ADRV.
steps to recreate:
- Using existing Customer/Partners
- Create Sales Document (Order) adding partners by selecting partner #'s and not manually overriding any address information.
- Address of the partner is now linked in the Sales Document via VBPA-ADRDA=D and the ADDRNUMBER references the same ADRC address records that KNA1 points to.
- There is no Where-Used record created in ADRV indicating that the Sales Document is linked to that address.
- If I change or delete the ADRC record from KNA1 then I do not have the information available to take any special actions on linked Sales Documents.
Note: If you manually override the address or use a one-time address when entering the Sales Document then the new address is linked via VBPA-ADRDA=E and a Where-Used record is created in ADRV. Also any follow-on documents created with reference to the Sales Document will also have Where-Used records created in ADRV. So in the case of changed or manually entered addresses ADRV does work as I would expect it to.
I am observing this behavior in both R/3 4.6c and ECC 5.0. Trying to understand why SAP is using or not using ADRV in these situations and whether the behavior can and should be changed.
