SE16 - is "OR" possible?

Hi,
I'm running SE16 / SE16N, and I was wondering if "OR" is possible. For example, to pull data where one field = "48020900" OR another field <> "".
Is it possible is SQVI or SQ01? If so, how? PLEASE be detailed.
Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Suhas,
noteworthy thread.
Suha, sometimes I really ask myself of what you are dreaming at night.
It is true that in SE16N main screen using the right-arrow-icon-button without text (SE16N is lousy BTW) you get to the 'Multiple selection by *field' popup.
After entering any value, a click on the 'Multiple selection' Button without Icon (not lousy but feature?) the search help configured for the field comes up allowing multiple selections on the hit list.
Still no OR between different fields. At least you may describe a small example where you find all company codes that have SAP in their name OR the location Argentina
It is true that you can do it with SM30 maintenance view: On Start screen click radio button 'Enter Conditions', then MAINTAIN, then enter the fields you want to use. The you get to the "Determine work area' Popup where you can enter from-to-ranges for the fields. Here you can use button 'Further select cond.' . This opens a rather cryptic condition popup where you can enter range lines for the selected fields and combine them using AND or OR.
I forgot that (Thanks Rob for Reminder) and mostly can't use it because not many tables have maintenance views.

Clemens

Copy Se16

Hello,
i need your help/experiences.
Regarding SOX we have to close our productive system. If the system is closed, maintaining all tables with se16 is not possible.
Now we have a few (over 100) own customizing tables (only in x and y namespace) where we have to do changes directly in the productive system.
My first idea is a simple alv grid with edit function, but this make problems when sorting and saving a huge amount of data and data will be corrupt.
Next idea was to copy the hole se16 package to z namespace and find the coding for the maintain - but i did´n´t get it to work, a lot of syntax errors after copying.
We are now on 2004s with WEB AS 6.40 and i even tried the "Recreate se16" from Thomas Jung - but is only for reading tables.
Has anybody of you has the same experience or a generic programm to change tables stable.
Thank you for your help in advance.

Process Chain hangs on AND process

Help Super gurus!
I've tried several versions of a chain that loads multiple InfoPackages serially then multiple DTP in parallel using filtering from the PSA to a DSO. All load successfully. Then I have the DTPs all meet at an 'AND' process before processing should continue to a cube.
The 'AND' process also shows green but it does not continue to the next process step. It just stops there, no more jobs running, no yellow, nothing. It thinks it's all done, everything after that is still blue.
Why does it hang there and what can I do to get it to continue?
Thanks,
Al
Points available.

Hi,
Not sure what is the root cause in your case.
Try this. It may work. Normally this is done after a step turns red and no repeat is available.
Method 1 (when it fails in a step/request)
/people/siegfried.szameitat/blog/2006/02/26/restarting-processchains
How is it possible to restart a process chain at a failed step/request?
Sometimes, it doesn't help to just set a request to green status in order to run the process chain from that step on to the end.
You need to set the failed request/step to green in the database as well as you need to raise the event that will force the process chain to run to the end from the next request/step on.
Therefore you need to open the messages of a failed step by right clicking on it and selecting 'display messages'.
In the opened popup click on the tab 'Chain'.
In a parallel session goto transaction se16 for table rspcprocesslog and display the entries with the following selections:
1. copy the variant from the popup to the variante of table rspcprocesslog
2. copy the instance from the popup to the instance of table rspcprocesslog
3. copy the start date from the popup to the batchdate of table rspcprocesslog
Press F8 to display the entries of table rspcprocesslog.
Now open another session and goto transaction se37. Enter RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH as the name of the function module and run the fm in test mode.
Now copy the entries of table rspcprocesslog to the input parameters of the function module like described as follows:
1. rspcprocesslog-log_id -> i_logid
2. rspcprocesslog-type -> i_type
3. rspcprocesslog-variante -> i_variant
4. rspcprocesslog-instance -> i_instance
5. enter 'G' for parameter i_state (sets the status to green).
Now press F8 to run the fm.
Now the actual process will be set to green and the following process in the chain will be started and the chain can run to the end.
Of course you can also set the state of a specific step in the chain to any other possible value like 'R' = ended with errors, 'F' = finished, 'X' = cancelled ....
Check out the value help on field rspcprocesslog-state in transaction se16 for the possible values.

Process chain problem...., its urgent

Hi all
in my process chain we are loading 4 loads into ODS. After 3 loads, 4th load didn't take place. its not yet started even 3rd one successfully ran. its not showing error also. what can i do. after 4th one ODS activation process is there.
Please advice me. will i go for manual loading. if i do manual, what abt activation after 4th load. will i do activation also manual or else it will trigger automatically as part of process chain........../
Advice me frnds..., its urgent

Try this solution with your 3rd ODS..hope this will solve your problem for this instance. This is just a workaround.
Before next scheduel of the process chain..remove the link between 3rd ODS and 4th ODS and then reconnect once again and activate the process chain and schedule it as per your schedule cycle. From next upload onwards everything works fine.
Assign points if it is helpful.

Reg: Process Chain, query performance tuning steps

Hi All,
I come across a question like, There is a process chain of 20 processes.out of which 5 processes are completed at the 6th step error occured and it cannot be rectified. I should start the chain again from the 7th step.If i go to a prticular step i can do that particular step, How can i start the entair chain again from step 7.i know that i need to use a function module but i dont know the name of FM. Please somebody help me out.
Please let me know the steps involved in query performance tuning and aggregate tuning.

Query performance tuning
General tips
Using aggregates and compression.
Using less and complex cell definitions if possible.
1. Avoid using too many nav. attr
2. Avoid RKF and CKF
3. Many chars in row.
By using T-codes ST03 or ST03N
Go to transaction ST03 > switch to expert mode > from left side menu > and there in system load history and distribution for a particual day > check query execution time.
/people/andreas.vogel/blog/2007/04/08/statistical-records-part-4-how-to-read-st03n-datasets-from-db-in-nw2004
/people/andreas.vogel/blog/2007/03/16/how-to-read-st03n-datasets-from-db
Try table rsddstats to get the statistics
Using cache memoery will decrease the loading time of the report.
Run reporting agent at night and sending results to email.This will ensure use of OLAP cache. So later report execution will retrieve the result faster from the OLAP cache.
Also try
1. Use different parameters in ST03 to see the two important parameters aggregation ratio and records transferred to F/E to DB selected.
2. Use the program SAP_INFOCUBE_DESIGNS (Performance of BW infocubes) to see the aggregation ratio for the cube. If the cube does not appear in the list of this report, try to run RSRV checks on the cube and aggregates.
Go to SE38 > Run the program SAP_INFOCUBE_DESIGNS
It will shown dimension Vs Fact tables Size in percent.If you mean speed of queries on a cube as performance metric of cube,measure query runtime.
3. --- sign is the valuation of the aggregate. You can say -3 is the valuation of the aggregate design and usage. ++ means that its compression is good and access is also more (in effect, performance is good). If you check its compression ratio, it must be good. -- means the compression ratio is not so good and access is also not so good (performance is not so good).The more is the positives...more is useful the aggregate and more it satisfies the number of queries. The greater the number of minus signs, the worse the evaluation of the aggregate. The larger the number of plus signs, the better the evaluation of the aggregate.
if "-----" then it means it just an overhead. Aggregate can potentially be deleted and "+++++" means Aggregate is potentially very useful.

4. Run your query in RSRT and run the query in the debug mode. Select "Display Aggregates Found" and "Do not use cache" in the debug mode. This will tell you if it hit any aggregates while running. If it does not show any aggregates, you might want to redesign your aggregates for the query.
Also your query performance can depend upon criteria and since you have given selection only on one infoprovider...just check if you are selecting huge amount of data in the report
Check for the query read mode in RSRT.(whether its A,X or H)..advisable read mode is X.
5. In BI 7 statistics need to be activated for ST03 and BI admin cockpit to work.
By implementing BW Statistics Business Content - you need to install, feed data and through ready made reports which for analysis.

You can go to T-Code DB20 which gives you all the performance related information like
Partitions
Databases
Schemas
Buffer Pools
Tablespaces etc
use tool RSDDK_CHECK_AGGREGATE in se38 to check for the corrupt aggregates
If aggregates contain incorrect data, you must regenerate them.

Restarting Process chain from the middle

Hi all, I have a question about process chain in BW7.0.
When the error has occured in the process chain, is there any way to restart the process chain from where the error has occured?
One of the way I came up with was to set the process type into Repairable from Repeatable,but when I try to change the status,the warning message shows up and I can't change it.
Is this the right idea,or is there any other way to do it?
Can any one tell me?
Thanks in Advance,
Hiroshi Iwanaga

First of all, find out the rootcause of the failure of the process step that failed and finish it manually. Then, go to the process chain...
Open the messages of a failed step by right clicking on it and selecting 'display messages'.
In the opened popup click on the tab 'Chain'.
In a parallel session goto transaction se16 for table rspcprocesslog and display the entries with the following selections:
1. copy the variant from the popup to the variante of table rspcprocesslog
2. copy the instance from the popup to the instance of table rspcprocesslog
3. copy the start date from the popup to the batchdate of table rspcprocesslog
Press F8 to display the entries of table rspcprocesslog.
Now open another session and goto transaction se37. Enter RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH as the name of the function module and run the fm in test mode.
Now copy the entries of table rspcprocesslog to the input parameters of the function module like described as follows:
1. rspcprocesslog-log_id -> i_logid
2. rspcprocesslog-type -> i_type
3. rspcprocesslog-variante -> i_variant
4. rspcprocesslog-instance -> i_instance
5. enter 'G' for parameter i_state (sets the status to green).
Now press F8 to run the fm.
Now the actual process will be set to green and the following process in the chain will be started and the chain can run to the end.
Of course you can also set the state of a specific step in the chain to any other possible value like 'R' = ended with errors, 'F' = finished, 'X' = cancelled ....
Check out the value help on field rspcprocesslog-state in transaction se16 for the possible values.

Restrict all HCM related tables

Hi all,
If tomorrow HCM is installed in the same system that another SAP module, and if current users of the other SAP module have access to SE16, is it possible to restrict all HCM data to these users. My client thinks that people who access SE16 could always find a way to access HCM data such as basic pay, appraisals, ... I know a little about S_TABU_DIS object but I'm not sure it will works for all data.
I know that the better way is to install HCM on another server or another logical instance but if it's not the case, is there a really secured way to restrict the access to the HR data ?
Thanks

Yes,
You are right BEN, you can very well controll that with authrization profile "S_TABU_DIS" and "S_TABU_LIN" etc.
Please refer the following link

P_ABAP autharization object will be reviewd.

Maintaining table CSSL

Hello,
Recently a bunch of new cost centers were created which will be used in posting payroll. We are getting an error during posting because there are no entries in table CSSL for the new cost centers and the corresponding activity types. How do we maintain table CSSL? I see that direct maintenance through SE16 is not possible. We also appear to be missing entries in tables COKL, COKA, and COSL.
Thanks,
April Erickson

I asked some of our functional analysts, and it turns out that we don't manually enter anything in KP26. However, we have a custom program which is primarly used to update a custom table linking the cost centers and activity codes. Our custom table had not been updated for the new cost centers yet either. When this custom program finds cost centers in table CSKS that do not have corresponding entries in table CSSL, it runs a BDC of KP26 in the background. This then creates the necessary entries in CSSL, COSL, and COKL. Problem solved!
Thanks,
April

How to repeat sucessfull process step

I want execute an abap program program again to make the next process step to be sucessfull, how can i do that.
when i right click--process monitor on sucessfull process step i am getting set status to red, yellow, if i select yellow
will it run again

Hi,
Method when it fails in a step/request
/people/siegfried.szameitat/blog/2006/02/26/restarting-processchains
How is it possible to restart a process chain at a failed step/request?
Sometimes, it doesn't help to just set a request to green status in order to run the process chain from that step on to the end.
You need to set the failed request/step to green in the database as well as you need to raise the event that will force the process chain to run to the end from the next request/step on.
Therefore you need to open the messages of a failed step by right clicking on it and selecting 'display messages'.
In the opened popup click on the tab 'Chain'.
In a parallel session goto transaction se16 for table rspcprocesslog and display the entries with the following selections:
1. copy the variant from the popup to the variante of table rspcprocesslog
2. copy the instance from the popup to the instance of table rspcprocesslog
3. copy the start date from the popup to the batchdate of table rspcprocesslog
Press F8 to display the entries of table rspcprocesslog.
Now open another session and goto transaction se37. Enter RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH as the name of the function module and run the fm in test mode.
Now copy the entries of table rspcprocesslog to the input parameters of the function module like described as follows:
1. rspcprocesslog-log_id -> i_logid
2. rspcprocesslog-type -> i_type
3. rspcprocesslog-variante -> i_variant
4. rspcprocesslog-instance -> i_instance
5. enter 'G' for parameter i_state (sets the status to green).
Now press F8 to run the fm.
Now the actual process will be set to green and the following process in the chain will be started and the chain can run to the end.
Of course you can also set the state of a specific step in the chain to any other possible value like 'R' = ended with errors, 'F' = finished, 'X' = cancelled ....
Check out the value help on field rspcprocesslog-state in transaction se16 for the possible values.
You can try this to change the status of the predecessor process to R or X so that repeat is available for the successor step.

Is it possible to validate the deletion of data in custom SE16

Hi Guys,
To maintain a Z table ZCITY (Master Data), I created custom SE16 t-code ZSE16CITY (using SE93 - Transaction with parameters).
Is it possible to validate the deletion of data from ZCITY Table in custom SE16.
If ZCODE exists in any of the transaction table then deletion of the record is not allowed and display the message for user.
Is this functionality is doable in custom SE16 or I have to create a maintenance program using Dialog screen (SE51).
Thanks for you input.
mini

Hi ,
try this way....
using SE93 - Transaction with parameters
next pass the below values in the Name of the screen field and Value
VIEWNAME <table name>
DATABROWSE-TABLENAME <table name>

Why in SE16 we can not see New Data Table for standard DSO

Hi,
We says that there is three tables (New Data Table, Active Data Table and Change Log Table) of Standard DSO, Then Why in SE16 we can not see New Data Table of Standard DSO.
Regards,
Sushant

Hi Sushant,
It is possible to see the 3 DSO tables data in through SE16. May be you do not have authorization to see data through SE16.

Archiving custom(z) table or changing standard se16 screen

Hi Abapers,
My requirement is i need a selection screen1 to enter the z table name, when i select the table and execute on screen1, it should direct me to the selection screen2 which contains the key fields of the table mentioned as a selection screen elements. Then i enter the key field values and execute the 2nd selection screen, it should archive the records corresponding to the mentioned selection criteria. Could you please tell me the idea to achieve the same.
The solutions i am thinking of are
1. to enhance the se16 screen(where the same sequence of screens come) by adding a button to archive. If this is possible how do i can do this??
2. By creating from scratch by creating a report, in this case i am struck with the dynamic selection screen creation.
Your suggestion/help is very much in need.
Thanks
Shruthi

Hi Shruthi,
I don't think we can have a generic transaction to archive Ztable records. May be in case if you wanna delete you can do so, but since archived records needs to be stored somewhere you may need to create several tables that holds the archived data.

Any option to restrict SE16 record level access based on company code?

Hi All,
I have a requirement to restrict record level access in SE16 based on company code.
Our SAP system has two company codes. The requirement is that users of one company code should not be able to see records of other company code in SE16.
Is it possible through some exits/badis/other methods?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Arun Mohan

You could write a small front end that accepts the company code, applies custom authorization code for each value and retains or removes, then calls the transaction and enters the selections the user requested and that your authorization check resulting in "passing".... Of course, you'd have to block those users from "pure" SE16... I once worked in situation similar, users in one country couldn't see USA data, etc. I think someone wrote an entire new program, called by ZSE16, for that.

Is it possible to view the data that is extracted from logical database.

Hi ,
i have a standard program(T-code F.38) that uses logical database.This program also uses fields groups to define the structure.
Now my question how can i see the data that is been fetched from logical database?Is that possible?
I need to do further modifications on this data.Please advice whether its possible?

hi,
one possibility is dat. goto SLDB give ur ldb name and goto source code.
u will get code.
now see dat and by giving same conditions u can check data using se16.

SE16 - is "OR" possible?
