SAP Termintation date - Interface issue

Hi
We had a new interface setup with ADP, where the ADP picks the data from our SAP system on monthly basis and delivers it to the Third party payroll provider. Issue we are having is with the termination data which is as follows.
An employee's last working day is 31st May 2010 and he will be terminated on 1st June 2010 in our SAP system. When we send the termination date to the Payroll provider using ADP Interface the date should be 31st May 2010, then only the employee will be paid till 31st May. If we send the 1st of June then he
As ADP Interface uses monthly payroll period as reference (here it is month of May) when it is sending the termination information to the Payroll Provider. In our case as the termination data is 1st June 2010 which is falling out of the May Payroll period. This is causing the interface not selecting the termination information to the payroll provider. This is resulting in the employee being still active rather than getting terminated.
Its been identified this as gap but looking for alternative solutions to circumvent this issue where the Payroll provider will terminate the employee on the same date as in SAP. We donot intend to do any manual work of sending this data.
Thanks

Hi,
it's very common that date of termination in SAP differs one day from other systems.
If would suggest you determine the termination - date via function moduloe RP_HIRE_FIRE.
In your example, this function will give termination date of May 31 (instead of June 1).

Data interfacing from 3rd party system to SAP

Dear all,
We are going to upload employee masters, including actions, org assignment, personal information and other infotypes from a third-party system to SAP HCM. May I know what should be the best approach, e.g. BDC, BAPIs, for these kinds of data interfacing? I am thinking to use....
BDC for hiring/transfer/termination actions (besides BDC, any other approaches?)
RH_INSERT_INFTY or RH_UPDATE_INFTY for personal information / other infotypes updates
However, I have no idea on how to automate updates of OM. Please kindly share your thought, thank you!
Best regards,
Anne

As I known , there is a interface tool named as IDOC.For more information , please ask your abap team.

SAP Accelarated Data migration

Hi All,
Could someone kindly provide more info about SAP ADM. I am uanble to get any info about the same. I would like to understand as to how exactly the tool works. I have the 4 page PDF that is posted on the site but its not clear on the actual tool. Can someone kindly provide me with some document or screen shots or any more info about it. My mail id is [email protected] Could someone kindly reply at the earliest.
Thanks

Hi Prahlad,
Go through this hope u can understand.
With SAP Accelerated Data Migration, you can reduce migration
costs by as much as 50% and avoid interruption of business
processes. Moreover, shutting down the source system after
migration reduces system administration costs and total cost
of operations. In short, you realize the following benefits:
Significantly reduced cost and time to complete migration
projects
Accurate, cost-effective data transfer applicable for any kind
of source system
Better data quality because of preconfigured business objects
that ensure data consistency
Improved end-user productivity and acceptance thanks to
migration of historical data
Effective migration that avoids interruption of business
processes
Full support services to avoid risks and ensure the optimum
performance of your new business applications
Faster return on investment
In short, a smoother, more cost-effective migration to a new
technology solution ultimately positions your organization
to lower your total cost of ownership, maintain competitive
advantage, and pursue new business opportunities.
Expertise in Action
SAP Accelerated Data Migration applies a business objectoriented,
two-step approach that uses a neutral interface as a staging area
and predefined migration content for the conversion and upload
of data. The neutral interface enables the SAP tool to generate
predefined migration content and prevents all potential legal
issues regarding the intellectual property of any source-system
vendor. The whole data migration process from the source to
the target system consists of just two steps, as follows:
1. Data is extracted from the source system into the standard
interface as XML files.
2. Data migrates from the interface into the mySAP Business
Suite database. The migration is based on a new migration
workbench engine developed by SAP based on the SAP
NetWeaver® platform. All requirements for mapping structures
and fields and developing complex conversion rules are solved
within this engine (see Figure 1).
Once the migration is complete, business-unit end users have
access to all the legacy data in the new applications as if it had
originated there. They can continue to work on the existing
business process items in the new applications and benefit from
improved functionality.
Lifting the Limitations
Much of the cost and effort involved in classical data migrations
are generated by migration content development, as follows:
Identifying business objects for migration to properly support
the business
Defining the structure and field mapping for the relevant
business objects
Developing conversion rules for all necessary value mapping
Readily available migration content can simplify this effort.
SAP Accelerated Data Migration provides preconfigured business
content, helping you migrate it to your new system more efficiently
and rapidly. The tool allows the migration of all types of
data, independent of its current state within a business process.
This includes master and dynamic data, as well as partially
processed and historical data, to minimize data loss. Business
processes are uninterrupted and normal operation procedures
can be retained.
By providing a standard, neutral interface and reading data as an
XML file, SAP Accelerated Data Migration is applicable for any
kind of source system. Preconfigured data migration objects built
specifically for SAP applications significantly simplify the conversion
from non-SAP software data into SAP software data objects,
yielding far-reaching benefits. Besides reducing related IT costs,
you can be certain of consistency across business-object boundaries.
Through a direct insert into the database, you avoid the
performance limitations of classical data migration.

Hi PS,
Instead of
SELECT * FROM /BI0/HMATL_GROUP INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF
TABLE t_hmat
WHERE hieid IN l_r_hieid
AND objvers = 'A' .
code should look like this .
 OPEN CURSOR WITH HOLD S_CURSOR FOR
 SELECT (S_S_IF-T_FIELDS) FROM /BI0/HMATL_GROUP
 FETCH NEXT CURSOR S_CURSOR
 APPENDING CORRESPONDING FIELDS
 OF TABLE E_T_DATA
 PACKAGE SIZE S_S_IF-MAXSIZE.
For more information refer to sample code of fm "RSAX_BIW_GET_DATA_SIMPLE"
Hope that helps.

SAP BW data in ODS to XML and sending this XML file to 3rd Party

Hi Gurus,
We are having a scenario in which we have to convert our data in ODS to XML and need to provide this XML file to our clients so that they can use this XML file in their 3rd party system.
Now the issue is that i have created ABAP program for converting into XML.
If I execute this program, since i have given path as my Desktop, the converted XML file gets saved on my Desktop.
But the problem is how i can provide this XML file to the client.
Is there any way of converting this XML file to html and send them the URL ......
plz suggest me.... what can be done......
my ABAP code u can see in the following link
Extract SAP BW Data into XML

SAP-HR data to multi-file mapping.

Hi,
I have to generate SAP-HR data into 5 text files. There are some separate fields that would be required in these files.
So, what could be the mapping scenario that i can choose. I think it's feasible with IDoc & proxy both. What scenario i can choose considering that data is in bulk. Is there any other good possibility?
Regards,
Arpil Gupta

Hi,
Selecting the Adapter.........this is depending on data which ur sending.
option IDOC u can select if u have standard IDOC and the datsa is more then 25 feilds i suggest its an best one.
if u have less feilds like 20 or 25 then go for PROXY dont go for IDOC becasue performance issue will be there.
Configure a RFC Adapter and call the BAPI / RFC. However the potential problem that I could see is that the RFC adapter existing on the Java stack communciating with the BAPI existing on the SAP application system

SAP HR Active Sync Issue

Hi,
I encountered SAP HR Active Sync issue: The IDM seems can't receive the IDOC but SAP side says the data already passed to port OK.

SAP side transaction WE02 shows the IDOC:

SAP HR Active Sync resource reference says:
1. Enter transaction code PFAL.
2. Insert the Object Type P for person objects.
3. Enter an Employee's ID for the Object ID or select a range of employees.
4. Click Execute.
5. Ensure that the status is set to passed to port okay.
6. The IDoc has been created. Check the Active Sync adapter log file to verify that
an update was received.
Now why I can't see the IDOC logs in the active sync adaptor log file?
Thanks!

SAP IDOC's, interfaces and BAPI's

Hi i am new to SD, can anyone give me documentation or reading material for SAP IDOC's, interfaces and BAPI's .
Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanking you

Hi Reddy,
Very general question, I don't think you will find the answer in one document.
BAPIs are normal function modules, with predefined input and output structures to perform standard business transactions.
IDOCs are standardised interface documents to transfer data.
Once the IDOC is read, it almost always calls a BAPI to perform the business transaction.
Therefore start with reading about BAPIs since you will definately have to master those when starting to work on interfaces.
There are hundreds of BAPIs so best is to start with a specific process, example sales order create or material master create.
Try transaction BAPI, this lists most of the BAPIs and contains excellent documentation.
Thanks for your points,
Filip

Scenario: SAP Tables Data to XML File

I need to create a Xml file at inbound by taking input as SAP Tables Data at outbound. What are adapters to be used at outbound and inbound interfaces. Please correct me if iam wrong. At outbound side iam taking jdbc adapter and at inbound side iam taking file adapter. Can anybody guide me how to do this scenario with screen shots. Is it possible to use proxies for this scenario.
Thanks in advance.

SAP BAPI ActiveX Interface

Hello,
This is a cross post from LAVA forum...
I'm trying to integrate our test stations to SAP ERP. SAP stores data in busines objects in busines object repository. The objects are exposed over BAPI interface. There is a lot of different busines objects in the repository. SAP developers can also build new objects if they want. The objective is to read inspection characeristics from quality management module of SAP. I haven't done much ActiveX stuff, neither know much about SAP, so I started with a simple example that I found searching for BAPI examples. The example works fine in Excel. The example just reads some data from a sales order object.
Sub BAPI1()Dim
oBook As Workbook
Dim oSheet As Worksheet
Dim oBAPICtrl As Object
Dim oBAPILogon As Object
Dim oSalesOrder As Object
Dim oItem As Object
Dim iIndex As Integer
Set oBook = Application.ActiveWorkbook
Set oSheet = oBook.Worksheets(1)
' Initialize SAP ActiveX Control.
Set oBAPICtrl = CreateObject("sap.bapi.1")
' Initialize SAP ActiveX Logon.
Set oBAPILogon = CreateObject("sap.logoncontrol.1")
' Initialize the connection object.
Set oBAPICtrl.Connection = oBAPILogon.newconnection
' Logon with prompt.
oBAPICtrl.Connection.System = "Q02"
oBAPICtrl.Connection.Client = 101
oBAPICtrl.Connection.Logon
' Retrieve a sales order.
Set oSalesOrder = oBAPICtrl.GetSAPObject("SalesOrder","0010732181")
' Display Sales Order header data.
oSheet.Cells(2, 1).Value = oSalesOrder.salesdocument
oSheet.Cells(2, 2).Value = oSalesOrder.netvalue
oSheet.Cells(2, 3).Value = oSalesOrder.orderingparty.customerno
oSheet.Cells(2, 4).Value = oSalesOrder.documentdate
oSheet.Cells(2, 5).Value = oSalesOrder.items.Count
' Logoff SAP and close the control.
oBAPICtrl.Connection.logoff
Set oBAPILogon = Nothing
Set oBAPICtrl = Nothing
End Sub
I tried to implement that in LabVIEW. The logon and logout part works, I can also obtain SalesOrder object with GetSAPObject method. There is no error and probing the Object output from GetSAPObject methods gives an integer value - probably a reference to the SalesOrder object.
Now I can't figure out how do I read the object properties. It's very simple in VBA. I also don't know how do I call object methods. This is apicture from SAP BAPI documentatios showing available properties and methods.
I would appreciate any hints...
bye, Mirko

No, there isn't any reference type that matches BAPI Object. In fact, there can't be a fixed type reference, since BAPI object are actually function modules that SAP programmers write themselves using language called ABAP. I concluded that we can't call the object methods or read/write properties in LabVIEW, if we don't know the right type at development time. So, I gave up on BAPI API.
There are also other methods of SAP integration. O step down on abstraction scale is Remote Function Call (RFC) API. The API is much more involved, but it allows us to call functions that are behind BAPI objects. In a few test that I did it worked fine. The interface is exposed over three ActiveX controls - SAP Remote Function Call Control, SAP Table Factory Control and SAP Logon Control.
There is also .NET assembly and web services which I didn't tried.

What is data interface?

Hi friends,
what is data interface?

Hai Pratap
In ABAP context , interfaces are only of two types.
1) INBOUND interfaces
2)OUTBOUND Interfaces.
INBOUND:(from external system data is fetched as flat files which is moved to SAP database tables).
in this process we get data in the form of flat files(.txt or .xlx). we will read this data from the files using FM like UPLOAD/WS_UPLOAD/GUI_UPLOAD into internal
tables. And using BDC methods or LSMW tool, we will update the database tables with this data.
OUTBOUND:(Data from SAP dtabase is retrieved adn stored as flatfiles on presentaion server or application server)
In this process we retrieve data using select statements from the database tables and will populate the internal tables. based on the requirement, we will use FM like DOWNLOAD/WS_DOWNLAOD/GUI_DOWNLOAD to write data from internal tables to flat files on th presentation server.
*the above mentioned Fm will work for files on presentaion server(local file system) . IF u want to handle files on the application server, use DATASET.
Other technologies that u mentioned like RFC, BAPI, EDI,ALE, IDOCS etc might be used as apart of interface code.

Two storage box (3510 and 6140) interface issue...

Hi All,
In my setup we were previously used storage box 3510 but having space issues we are purchasing new storage box of six series 6140. Now, I don't have any clear idea that both the storage can easily mounted on the servers? or there are some interface issues might be?
Can anyone suggest me what are the points(like network, HD and etc.) I have to consider for the compatibility of these storage box?
Thanks...

Hi user505
Now, I don't have any clear idea that both the storage can easily mounted on the servers? or there are some interface issues might be?How many HBA's do your current hosts that are connected to the 3510 have ? are they are single port single card or dual ported card ?.
Depending on how many HBA's you have in your server I would configure up the 6140 with the initiators , map the new volumes straight to the server and then do your copying of data.
In regards to network config etc you'd need to setup the 6140 as per the normal configuration for out of band access , so you can get it via CAM.
Hope that helps
