Split PO Line into multiple shipments

Hi ,
I have following situation on our PO.
We create a PO with line info as
ITEM DATE PRICE QTY
ABC 1-JUN-08 100 1000
we provide this to supplier and after their assesment after a week or so supplier gives back tentive ship date
1-JUN-08 300
3-JUN-08 400
5-JUN-08 300.
we have a requirement based on this information. We need to split the PO line automatically using this information...so above line has be to split automatically as following
ITEM DATE PRICE QTY
ABC 1-JUN-08 100 300
ABC 3-JUN-08 100 400
ABC 5-JUN-08 100 300
can we do this using PO Open Interface?
I have checked PO_CHANGE_API1_S. This API allows to update the existing shipment. I need to know how to add a new shipment.
We are using R12.
Thanks.

shipments can be added to the pO
suppose u have 1000 qty on th epo line
IF u go to the shipments tab, there would be one line there with 1000 qty , ship to and bill to
edit the 1000 quantity to 300 and move to next line, the balnce of 700 would appear automatically..
edit the 700 to 400 and move no next line..balance of 300 would appear automatically..u can alao entre needby dates ,ship to loc and bill to loc there
Hope that helps

  • Split the IDOC into multiple IDOC if the IDOC has more than 500 records

    Hi All,
    I developed an outbound IDOC in which we are facing an issue.
    There is some limitation on the maximum idoc size it can handle.
    If number of records is more than 500, split the idoc into multiple iDoc's, e.g. if it would have 1300 records , the result would be 2 iDoc's with 500 records, and the last one would have 300 records
    How can i acheive this.
    Regards
    Jai

    Hi,
    1) first you need to know which message type/Idoc type you are triggering.
    2) Get the Corresponding processcode from Partner profiles(WE20/ WE41).
    3) Then the look for prper user-exit in the related processing FM.
    4) write logic to split the IDoc accordingly.
    if no proper user exit available then copy the standard processing FM and need to all ALE related configurations.
    Catch hold any ABAP expert in your team to do all these.

  • Split Single IDOC into Multiple IDOC's Based on Segment Type

    Hi Experts,
    I have a scenario IDOC to FILE ,  Split Single IDOC into Multiple IDOC's based on Segment Type
    Outbound:
    ZIdocName
    Control Record
    Data Record
    Segment 1

    Please suggest me step by step process to achieve this task.
    Thanks.

    Thanks a lot Harish for reply.
    I have small doubt. According to your reply , If we have N number of segments in single IDOC with same fields in all segments then for splitting Single IDOC into Multiple IDOC's based on Segment Type we need to duplicate N number of target IDOC tree structure.
    Is that possible to Split single IDOC into Multiple IDOC's based on Segment Type using only one Target IDOC structure without duplicating the Target IDOC structure tree.

    As a far I understood from your example ,
    I have few questions...
    1. You have information about the patient in a 1 source table.
    2. how u are identifying for patient X u need 5 rows to be created. R u storing these informations in seprate table or how ...
    3. if you have these information in a seperate tables ..... a simple cross join in ODI should get you the expected result.....
    Or give some more information with a example ..that would be great ...

  • Split one row into multiple columns

    Hi,
    Data in one CLOB column in a table storing with delimiter, ##~~##. Ex. ##~~##abc##~~##defgh##~~##ijklm##~~##nopqr (data starts with delimiter). Please help me to split the data into multiple rows like below and it should be in the same order.
    abc
    defgh
    ijklm
    nopqr
    I am using Oracle 11g.
    Thanks.

    Thanks Hoek for your response. Before posting my question in the forum, I tried similar query. It is working with one character as delimiter.
    with test as (select 'ABC,DEF,GHI,JKL,MNO' str from dual )
    select regexp_substr (str, '[^,]+', 1, rownum) split
    from test
    connect by level <= length (regexp_replace (str, '[^,]+')) + 1;
    Above query is giving correct result by fetching 5 rows. I have modified the query like below...
    with test as (select 'ABC,,,DEF,,,GHI,,,JKL,,,MNO' str from dual )
    select regexp_substr (str, '[^,,,]+', 1, rownum) split
    from test
    connect by level <= length (regexp_replace (str, '[^,,,]+')) + 1;
    Above query resulting 13 rows and last 8 rows are nulls. Number of null rows are increasing, if I increase number of characters in delimiter. Could you please tell me how to avoid those null rows.
    Thanks.

  • Split single row into multiple rows containing time periods

    Hi,
    I have a table with rows like this:
    id, intime, outtime
    1, 2010-01-01 00:10, 2010-01-3 20:00
    I would like to split this row into multiple rows, 1 for each 24hr period in the record.
    i.e. The above should translate into:
    id, starttime, endtime, period
    1, 2010-01-01 00:10, 2010-01-02 00:10, 1
    1, 2010-01-02 00:10, 2010-01-03 00:10, 2
    1, 2010-01-03 00:10, 2010-01-03 20:00, 3
    The first starttime should be the intime and the last endtime should be the outtime.
    Is there a way to do this without hard-coding the 24hr periods?
    Thanks,

    Thanks for all the feedback, Dan.
    It appears that the respective solutions provided will give you: a) different resultsets and b) different performance.
    Regarding your 'truly desired resultset' you haven't answered all questions from my previous post (there are differences in the provided examples), but anyway:
    I found that using CEIL or ROUND makes quite a difference, using my 'simple 3 record testset' (30 records vs. 66 records got initially returned, that's less than half of the original). That's quite a difference. However, I must call it a day (since it's almost midnight) for now, so there's room for more optimizement and I haven't thoroughly tested.
    But this might hopefully make a difference performancewise when compared to my previous 'dreaded example':

  • How to Split 1 Order into Multiple Deliveries based on Partner Function ?

    Hello,
    How can I split one Sales Order into multiple deliveries, based on the partner function "managed by" ?
    The requirement is that one order will be created for different "managed by".
    If partner function "managed by" is same at line item level in order, than the items having same "managed by" can be combined in one delivery, else delivery will split and multiple deliveries will be created from 1 Order.

  • Split delimited file into multiple structures

    Hi experts,
    I have a delimited text file that has multiple row types - each row contains only one structure, but there could be 10 different row types (structures) in the file. I can figure out which structure each row belongs. Just need to come up with a way to dynamically split each line.
    I am trying to stay away from:
    case 'row type'
      when 'structure A'
        split into A1, A2, A3...
      when 'structure B'
        split into B1, B2, B3...
    end with.
    Rather, create a routine accepting file line and structure (or structure name) that returns the structure with data populated.
    Any suggestions?

  • Split MP3 file into multiple MP3 files

    I've been through the help section and is till cant seem to figure out how to split a large (2 hour) mp3 file into multiple mp3 files.
    I have a 2 hour MP3 recording (Stereo not mono), and I have added markers (by simply pressing keyboard shortcut 'M' to add marker), but now I would like to know how to split that one mp3 files into multiple files from the markers which I have made...
    All my marker types are "Cue" when i pressed 'M' at the locations I want the track to end/start

    You didn't say which version of the program you're using, but in general, there is a way to do this by adding one additional cue at the very end of the file, then "merging" the cues (which converts the space between each cue into a "range"), and batch processing each range out to a separate file.  (Make sure there's a cue at the beginning of the file, or at least the first material you want in a new file.)
    Now that you've done all that work, I'm going to tell you that what you're doing is probably a bad idea.  Opening any mp3 in Audition and resaving back to mp3 means you've doubled the losses and distortion inherent with the mp3 compression.  Audition can't do lossless editing of mp3s.  The bottom line: are you really splitting the file, and does the result have to be mp3 format?  If saving to a (wave file, or any other lossless format, then what I'm saying doesn't matter.
    In any case, "mp3 Direct Cut" is a terrific freeware program that does lossless mp3 editing, and I'd highly recommend you try it.  It's saved my neck a number of times.  See http://www.mpesch3.de.

  • Split XSLT Output into Multiple Files

    I have an XML-to-File scenario working, but now I need to split my XSLT map output into multiple files based on the data.  I have been reading the Jin Shin blog on message splitting, but don't know that it pertains to my situation.
    XML data getting mapped with XSLT map creates output formatted like this.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <ns1:ColdInvoiceData xmlns:ns1="http://graybar.com/cold/invoice">
    <Header>
      <RecordID>HDR</RecordID>
      <InvoiceNumber>15</InvoiceNumber>
    </Header>
    <Details>
      <RecordID>DTL</RecordID>
      <LineItemNumber>001</LineItemNumber>
      <UnitPrice>1.25</UnitPrice>
    </Details>
    <Details>
      <RecordID>DTL</RecordID>
      <LineItemNumber>002</LineItemNumber>

      <LineItemNumber>001</LineItemNumber>
      <UnitPrice>3.33</UnitPrice>
    </Details>
    </ns1:ColdInvoiceData>
    I currently have this output writing to a file (FTP, File Conversion).  A single file is no issue, but I need to send multiple files for every set of HDR/DTL(s).  I also need to put the invoice number in the filename (which is working fine as a parameter in my single FTP File CC now).
    Can I make this happen with message splitting and maybe a second map (GUI map)?  Do I need to adjust the XSLT output XML format to have an invoice level?  Is there a better way to go?
    Thanks!

    I made a change to the namespace used on the Messages/Message1 nodes (since the system-assigned ns0 was already being used in my xml data) and now I am getting output. 
    The problem is that the output matches my input.  As aforementioned, I started with just a one-to-one mapping on every node and field. 
    When I change the mapping to try to force multiple ColdInvoiceData nodes, I get the following error (when my source has two Invoice nodes):
    <Trace level="1" type="T">com.sap.aii.utilxi.misc.api.BaseRuntimeException: RuntimeException in Message-Mapping transformation: Cannot produce target element /ns0:Messages/ns0:Message1/ns1:ColdInvoiceData[2]/Invoice. Check xml instance is valid for source xsd and target-field mapping fulfills requirements of target xsd at
    When my source has one invoice node, it works ok.
    Here is a screenshot of my mapping structure.

  • How can i prevent itunes from splitting individual albums into multiple albums?

    How do prevent itunes from splitting albums with various artists into multiple albums? 
    Thanks for your help!

    It's probably better to put Various Artists into the Album Artist box rather than just "various". Make sure it's the Album Artist field though. In addition, you need to mark the album as a compilation. When setting the complete album, the Part of a compilation is on a drop-down menu on the File/Get Info/Options tab:
    but if changing just one song, it's a tick-box on the Info tab:
    and needless to say, the album name must be exactly the same for each track.

    eg : string = 'sap abap sap abap sap abap sap abap sap abap sap abap sap abap sap sap sap abap sap abap'
    suppose i want to start splitting from 40th position...assume that i have 3 parts
    and these 3 parts i have put into an internal table..
    lt_itab = [sap abap sap abap sap abap sap abap,
                  sap abap sap abap sap abap sap abap,
                   sap abap sap sap sap abap sap abap]
    plese help!
    any help would be Appreciated ...thank you

    Hi,
    Try this code.
    TYPES: BEGIN OF ty,
            b TYPE string,
            END OF ty,
            tt TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty.
    DATA: a TYPE string VALUE 'aaa bbb ccc ddd eee fff ggg hhh iii jjj kkk lll',
           tb TYPE tt,
           wa TYPE ty,
           off TYPE i,
           len TYPE i,
           count TYPE i,
           count1 TYPE i,
           temp TYPE i.
    len = 8.                      "Position
    off = 0.
    count = strlen( a ).
    count1 = count / 8.
    temp = len - 1.
    DO count1 times.
      temp = off + len.
      IF temp > count.
       wa-b = a+off.
      ELSE.
       wa-b = a+off(len).
      ENDIF.
      off = off + len.
      SHIFT wa-b LEFT DELETING LEADING space.
      APPEND wa to tb.
    ENDDO.

  • Split 1 column into multiple columns

    Hi
    How can we acheive this in Sql:
    Col 1
    abc def ghi jkl
    convert to:
    Col 1
    Col 2
    Col 3
    Col 4
    abc
    def
    ghi
    jkl

    The best approach is to NOT split them out into individual columns... It violates the 1st normal form...
    Under first normal form, all occurrences of a record[sic] type must contain the same number of fields[sic].
    First normal form excludes variable repeating fields[sic] and groups.
    The better approach is to split them into rows, in their own table, with a foreign key reference back to the table you are pulling them away from.
    If you check my 1st post you'll see that I split the string with a function. That same a function can be used to populate the new table.
    Something along these lines...
    IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#BadOldDesign') IS NOT NULL
    DROP TABLE #BadOldDesign;
    CREATE TABLE #BadOldDesign (
    ID INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
    ListOfCodes VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL
    INSERT #BadOldDesign (ListOfCodes) VALUES
    ('abc htr tbj yfd hjk mth'),
    ('bbb hyt tbj vyk hjk htd'),
    ('vvv nud'),
    ('yyy hyn tbj bdr '),
    ('htr htf tbj yfd hjk mko'),
    ('kio bhn tbj bjd hjk'),
    ('byd loj tbj yfd hjk cds');
    SELECT * FROM #BadOldDesign bod
    IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#ShinyNewTable') IS NOT NULL
    DROP TABLE #ShinyNewTable;
    SELECT
    bod.ID,
    sc8.ItemNumber,
    sc8.Item
    INTO #ShinyNewTable
    FROM
    #BadOldDesign bod
    CROSS APPLY dbo.SplitCSVToTable8K(bod.ListOfCodes, ' ') sc8;
    ALTER TABLE #ShinyNewTable ALTER COLUMN id INT NOT NULL;
    GO
    ALTER TABLE #ShinyNewTable ALTER COLUMN ItemNumber INT NOT NULL;
    GO
    ALTER TABLE #ShinyNewTable ADD CONSTRAINT pk_ShinyNewTable PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (ID, ItemNumber);
    SELECT * FROM #ShinyNewTable snt
    The dbo.SplitCSVToTable8K function that I'm using can be found here... http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Tally+Table/72993/
