Source Sytem Creation giving error

Hi,
I am not able to create Source System in Quality System. there in Quality whenever i try making source system with the procedure in RSA1 right clicking in Source System type DB Connect, system asks for Source System name logical System name and other information. i provided all the info... Id and password..connection info... but in the end when i saved and came out of this window it gave a popup with 3 buttons System Log, Correct and cancel... with the message "Cannot Access Source System GRCDB". when i clicked on System Log button i can find these log:
1. After the attempt to call a database operation, the database system has
returned the error code specified in the message, which indicates that
the operation concerned could not be executed successfully.
2. Access to the database system has returned an SQL code indicating that
the operation could not be performed correctly by the database system.
This system log entry shows the database text for the SQL error that
has occurred. It supplements the preceding system log entry, which
shows the SQL code, the table name and the SQL function where the error
has occurred.
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier 44
If this problem of Source System creation is solved do i need to transport Source System? or please suggest some correct way of creating source system...
Also do we need any kind of authorizations for creation of Source System in Quality System... as i could create Source System in Quality but in the end it didnt created but the error message does not specify any authorization problem.

Hi
This can be done by simply creating source system in T-Code SCC4. You should have the authorization for this take BASIS Team help in the same.

Source system creation IDoc error

Dear Experts,
While creating the source system I am getting this error "IDoc type ZSDD029 could not be found", if I ignore this error the system creates source system in BI folder instead of making it in SAP folder. I have created IDoc with this name and next time when I create new source system the IDoc type move to ZSDD030, and keep on adding it and gave me this error. Any Idea
Regards,
ray

Hello,
Can you try the following:
1) Tcode WE30: The type ZSDD029 must exist in BW system.
If it does not exist, create it as a copy of type RSSEND.
2) Afterwards, enter the following in the view maintenance of view
EDIMSG (tcode SM30):
Message type RSSEND, IdocType as specified above, Release
corresponding to the release you are currently using.
3) Please make sure your entries for RSBASIDOC are identical in BW.

Error while source system creation/Source system transport

Hi,
     In our BW implementation, the system landscape is only 2 servers. One is BW Dev, another is BW Prd. All configurations are done in BW Dev and I extracted the data from QAS for this BW Dev system.
     Since we cant create the source systems in the BW Production system, I tried to create the source system for the SAP R3 Production system in BW Dev and trying to transport this to BW Production Instance.
     I have two queries.
1. Is this way is correct for creating the Source System for BW Production system?
2. When I tried to activate the source system I am getting the following error messages. (I tested the RFC Destinations. There is no problem, I also done the configurations for logical system creation and client assignment in both the systems).
Error in source system GWPCLNT900
     Message no. RSAR502
Diagnosis
     With Remote Function Call to system GWPCLNT900 error connection closed
     (no data) ccurred.
Procedure
     Remove the cause of the error.
When tried again I got the following error message
Basic type ZSBB030 doesnt exist. EA 447
Result of the destination check: Timeout RSAR 375.
Could anyone throw some light on these errors?
Thanks in advance.
Krishna

Hi,
you need to maintain the logical systems on both R/3 and BW. You also need to set up the RFC connection with users that can log in to the other system. The R/3 system must be open for customizing in scc4.
In transaction se03 the system change options for 'Business Information Warehouse: SAP Namespace' and 'Business Information Warehouse: Customer Namespace' may need to be modifiable. I am not completely sure about this.
The last thing I will mention is that I have seen source system creation fail when the RFC-users are system users, and the source system creation worked if the RFC-users was display user while creating the source system. The RFC-users must be changed back to system user later...
Please look at best practice documents on a more step-by-step guide...

Giving Error while generating the Data mart to Infocube.

Hi Gurus,
I need to extract the APO infocube data in to the BW infocube. For that iam trying to generate the data mart to APO infocube .
So, that i can use that data mart as a data source to extract that APO Infocube data in to BW infocube.
In that process iam trying to generate the datamart for APO Infocube . But while generating it is giving errors like below:

Hi David,
please check the default trace. It may contain the entry:
Error in compiling : java.io.IOException: Not enough space
If that's the case, maybe there's too little space for the swap file/device.
You should ensure that at least 2X (preferably 3X) of Heap (-Xmx) is configured as real swap
Hope that helps.

Creation of the dbcontrol requires a connection via the listener. When configuring the dbcontrol as part of database creation, it appears that the dbcontrol creation step runs before the dynamic registration of the databsase with the listener is complete. Now that the database itself is completed and enough time (really, just a minute or two) has passed to allow the instance to register, use dbca or emca to create the dbcontrol.
Are you able to get a sqlplus connection via the listener (sqlplus scott/tiger@orcl)? That needs to be the first order of business.

    If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to

    If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
    keywords:

    2.2. Corresponding system log

       Restrict the time interval to 10 minutes before and five minutes

R/3 Source system creation

Hello,
I wish to add an R/3 system to my BI 7.0 system. What exactly do I need to enter in the "Create SAP Source System" window? Should I leave backgrounduser as ALEREMOTE? I dont see any option of automatic source system creation. Could u pls help me with a step by step solution.
Thanks. POINTS WILL BE GIVEN.
SD

Hi
Defining the source system
As of release 640, you can use upper and lower case characters for R/3 user passwords. This is only uppercase characters for previous releases. Remember that your passwords are automatically converted to uppercase in previous Basis releases.
As BI 7.0 System has Basis 700 below, upper and lower case passwords are important.
So, for defining source system is almost same as ordinary BW Source System definitions.
One more important thing is that you have to take into account the EDI Ports. This may cancel your system definition if the <spsettings are not correct. This settings must be controlled on both BI and Source System.</p>
Here are the steps to configure Source System with Basis Relase lower than 640 in BI 70:
1. Take a look at table EDIPORT of your BW system and note the next free number for the field "Port". This is the adjacent number of the highest entry like 'A0000000123' for example. In this case e.g. take '124'.
2. Choose transaction "snum" and object "ediport".
Select "number ranges" from the menu "Goto" and here the button "status".
Change the CURRENT NUMBER of the ranges to the next free number you noted from table EDIPORT.
If the number range of your BW system is correct please check the same in your OLTP system.
3. Call TCODE RSA1 on BI System in BI Client.
4. Select Source Systems on Left Menu
5. Left Click SAP System and Choose Create
6. Important think is, as source system has Basis Release Lower than 640, You have to give All Passwords (For BI ALEREMOTE User and for Source System ALEREMOTE User) in UPPERCASE.
My Favourite is giving RFCCPIC for ALEREMOTE Passwords.
7. It Must Be OK.
Assign points if it helps

OdiSqlUnload giving error for network location specified

But it is giving following error
oracle.odi.oditools.OdiToolInvalidParameterException: Error while setting parameters on tool

Let me also paste for you Code i have used.

As here i have specified network location, does it mean i cannot create files on ntwork machine directly?
If so then is there any way to move files to network machine location from host computer?
Also i would like to know any tool for deleting files , preferably network location.

Passing parameaters giving error

Hi All,
I have requirement to add custom OAF page .
In customer online i have added one custom page all standard page have left navigation menu so same menu i have included into my page when i am clicking any link it is giving error it is not taking parameter
Function definition is like bellow
OA.jsp?page=/oracle/apps/imc/ocong/party/organization/webui/ImcOrgOverview;ImcPartyId={@ImcPartyId}&ImcPartyName={@ImcPartyName}
for each like it is taking parameater like ImcPartyId={@ImcPartyId}&ImcPartyName={@ImcPartyName}
i have created one VO and added this as attributes in my custom page but it is not picking .
I have manually pas this values as parameter from previous page even though it is not picking .
when i try to print those values in next page it is displaying ={@ImcPartyId} and {@ImcPartyName}
not getting values.
can any one guide me how to pass this values from my custom page.
Thanks in advance...
Regards,
Sridhar.

Read the OAF tutorial. There is a seciton which shows you how to generate a SEARCH, CREATE, DRILLDOWN, and UPDATE page. I think it's under tutorial toolbox lessons.
There is a section which shows you how to pass the parameters between the SEARCH and DRILLDOWN pages. The tutorial is monumental in explaining how to develop OAF pages.
From tutorial...
Step 4.1 Configure the EmpName Item as a Link
When the user selects an Employee Name link, the Details page should display. As part of this GET request, we also want to:
Add employeeNumber and employeeName parameters to the URL. These parameter values should be sourced from the EmployeeSummaryVO1 attributes EmployeeId and EmployeeName respectively.
Indicate that the EmpSearchPG's application module instance should be retained when the EmpDetailsPG renders so these pages can share the same root application module.
Indcate that breadcrumbs should display in the EmpDetailsPG.
To achieve this, select the EmpName item in the ResultsTable region and set the Destination URI property to:
OA.jsp?page=/<yourname>/oracle/apps/ak/employee/webui/EmpDetailsPG&employeeNumber={@EmployeeId}&employeeName={@EmployeeName}&retainAM=Y&addBreadCrumb=Y
At runtime, the OA Framework substitutes the current row's view instance attribute values for the tokens inside the curly braces. So, for example, &employeeNumber={@EmployeeId} becomes &emloyeeNumber=1234.

Wrong Confirmations giving error in DP90

Hi,
I have done some labour hour confirmations confirmations againt the service order. Out of all these confirmations some time confirmations are with wrong activity type. These wrong activity types are not for material determination in DP90. Then we reversed / cancelled the confirmations with wrong activity type. But still these confirmations are giving error of material determination in DP90. Pl. suggest how can I get rid of this material determination error in DP90 for those wrong and cancelled confirmations.
Thanks.

Hi Pete,
I tried putting actvities in the source list. It worked fine for the labour cost determination. But it is not working for material determination. I think it is putting "AND" relationship (means looking for combination of acitvity and cost element) while determination. But my requirement is to have it determined for the given cost element set without activity type combination.
Could you pl. suggest the solution for this.
Thanks

Item Open Interface giving error for Org Assignment

We ran the MTL_SYSTEMS_ITEMS_INTERFACE & loaded all the items at master level.
We are having issues in setting at Org level. Cant figure out what the issue as only few records gets assigned & then garbage sets in for remaining records. An SR has been raised & the tech support representative was saying that UOM's are different at master & org levels. Never heard of this issue earlier. I have worked with UOM's different at Master/Org levels.
The UOM's are different at Master & Org Level and in some cases the UOM are different for different Orgs. Attribute Control for Primary/Sec UOM is at Org level. The UOM's belong to the same UOM Class. There are standard conversions defined for all these UOMs.
Any pointers for quick resolution ?

pls help . points will be awarded

Hi,
what ever the Aman said is correct. You check this is supported in 8.1.5, SQL allows you to embed the ORDER BY clause in a subquery and place the ROWNUM condition in the top-level query;
'Top-N query' is a ORACLE 8i feature which is supported in SQL. However,
Bug:855720 states the following:
"PL/SQL does not support top-N queries (ORDER BY in SUBSELECT/SUBQUERY
or VIEW. Since this feature is available in SQL, but not in PL/SQL,
it has been logged as a Bug that will be fixed in 8.1.6."
