Standard ABAP functions for assign resources?

Hi all.
I would like to share this with you all.
After loosing three days looking for any kind of standard FM to assign resources (rooms or instructors) to an event (E), I request your help.
Any of you have found or used those functions in SAP?
Thanks in advance for your support.

Hello Roberto:
the FM we're using is HRIQ_EVENT_CREATE, not very creative , but we found nothing more appropriate, and we found it very flexible to work with events (unluckily flexible is a synonym of complex and hard work).
Let's move into when and how we used it:
regular courses are still created using SAPgui
we needed something more agile to use when a room or resource was needed for unusual activities (meetings for example), and no instructors were needed. We went into a web app. The user will indicate date(s), start and end time and resource. We developed a FM+webservice which "receives" the data inserted by the user and ends executing HRIQ_EVENT_CREATE. (precondition: we have a generic module created with its correpsonding event type needed to execute HRIQ_EVENT_CREATE)
a previous step to the event creation (on a separate FM+webservice) will check for conflicts in the proposed resource reservation, where the user will see a report of conflicts and make necessary changes before submitting the reservation.
Would you like to see our codes? Part of it is in Spanish which'll help you read the code
Cheers,
Michael

Standard ABAP functions for creating events?

Hi,
I'm a little bit confused which ABAP functions to use for creating academic events with schedules (e.g. lecture takes places each Friday at 4 pm), rooms and instructors attached.
Data transfer documentation SAP team recently released ("SLCM Data Transfer" archive, "Intro" document, page 18) suggests HRIQ_CREATE_EVENT as a solution. However, after experimenting for a while, I noticed a note attached to this function that "DO NOT USE ANYMORE, USE HRIQ_EVENT_CREATE".
So which one is the correct/recommended one? Also, if possible, I would prefer an RFC-enabled one.
Thanks
Janek

Hi Janek,
We've created a custom RFC enabled function module to wrap the SAP function module HRIQ_CREATE_EVENT in. We are on a 4.7 system. Here is our code. Hope it helps.

ABAP Functions for creating vendor

Hello,
I would like to create a program for creating vendor automatically by uploading a text file, where the text file contain the vendor information.
Can I ask are there any ABAP function for creating vendor? I have searched a function BAPI_VENDOR_CREATE, but I don't know how to use it.
Can anyone give me some ideas?
Many thanks
Sunny

Hi,
BAPI_VENDOR_CREATE is a online BAPI which calls the XK01 screen internally. There wont be any import or export parameters for this BAPI. If you have to upload from a text file, you can try with either of the options
1) Use the standard program RFBIKR00 to upload the vendor from the flat file. check the documentation of the report for details
2) Create a BDC recording on XK01 and upload the vendor from the flat file

ABAP Function for renaming of a planning level?

Hi all,
i wanna know if does exist an ABAP Function for renaming of a planning level or parameter group.
Someone can help me please?
Thanx a lot,
Paolo.


Hi,
I don't think any such Function Module exists. Nonetheless I can give you a good hint.
All the details of all planning objects (Planning Areas, Planning Levels, Planning Functions. Parameter Groups etc) are stored in UP* Tables. Just go to T-code SE11 and search for tables with name UP*.
Once you know the tables, you can write your own customized ABAP code.
PS: I can recommend above method to just read the details of Planning Objects. I don't think you should be ambitious to change planning object names by attempting to change system table contents. Hope you are getting me.

Abhijit

Standard ABAP program for process chains

Hi gurus,
Is there any standard ABAP program to trigger process chains?
I do not have authorization for RSPC_API_CHAIN_START. So is there any alternative function module or any standard ABAP program that I could use?
Please help.

Hi Apara,
Did you try scheduling the chain via rspc1? If not then follow the steps as given below and see if it is successful
1) Goto RSPC1.
2) Enter your chain technical name.
3) Go to display variant by right clicking the chain. Select the immediate option. save the settings.
4) Come back to the process chain screen. Click on execute button. See if this succeeds.
or in case if the chain has been already scheduled once:
Just open the PC in RCPC1/RCPC
right click on the start variant (i.e the first process in the PC)
and select display scheduled jobs...
this will show you the released jobs for this pC
just selsct the check box in front of the released job and the select the menu option Job - > selct Repeat scheduling.
selct immediate and remove the periodic tick mark and save which will run your process chain immediately.
But i doubt if you will be able to schedule the process chain via a function module or a ABAP code without prior authorization. Maybe you can request some one from your team to run the chain for you until you get access.
You will surely need to get access for running the chain without which it should not be possible to run the chain.
Thanks

SAP Standard ABAP Proxy for PO 855 SRM-R/3

Hi :

The 855 file from vendor is in the form of IDOC structure and how to customize the file to be used in conjunction with PurchaseOrderConfirmation_In(as this is based on XML).
How to Convert the 855 IDoc to XML format and feed it to standard SAP Interface PurchaseOrderConfirmation_In via XI ,if yes will this work and how??

Hi Arnab,
The expression is checked only for the current MDM session.
If u login with the ABC language it will always show the ABC language no matter how many times u execute it.
Try connecting to the DM with the XYZ language.
It should go to the if part rather than else.
Hope it helps.

Is there any abap function we can use to achieve it ? Our SAP BI version is 3.X, so it's better if this function is used in 7.0 version too.
Thanks in advance.

"Control + F5" standard filter functionality for ALV Grids

Hi all,
After an ALV Grid is displayed on screen there is a standard functionality to filter a selected column.
You can select a column (click on the head) of the ALV, then "Control + F5" and a pop-up appears to insert a value or a range by which the filtration is going to be done.
But a I have problem with a concrete field. It doesn`t seem different on comparison with other fields (CHAR30), but I don`t know why it doesn`t work correctly as others.
Have you had any situation like this ??
Thanks & sorry for my bad english,
Rubè

Hi Frank,
When you are entering 89012 and pressing enter the additional zeros are adding up because of the data type of VBELN We have standard conversion routine attached with this .So when ever u wrtie any text that routine will works.
Can you please check what data type are you using in the internal table that you are binding to the node?
Thanks and Regards,

ABAP Function for Material Unit of measure check

Hi Gurus,
i need to find a FM, a sequence of FM or anything else that return the same list (in internal tables whould be great!) like when i try to change the UM on a material but there are some open items and i got "DISPLAY ERRORS".
i need this because using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEREPLICA i got only the message "The base unit of measure cannot be changed; choose "Display errors".
BT

This was my 1st try before coming here and found the function, but it retrieves informations from memory and the memory area is not filled when i use the BAPI.
Anyway i solved otherwise.

Connect BO to ABAP Function

Hi Experts,
I'm trying to build a report out of the standard ABAP Function BAPI_AR_ACC_GETOPENITEMS (Function Group: 3007)
I'm able to create the connection on Information Design Tool, and I'm able to add the table to the Data Foundation
When I run the BAPI in SAP Logon, I'm only asked to fill 3 fields (company code, customer and date)
But when I try to make a query on IDT from the selected table (BAPI_AR_ACC_GETOPENITEMS.-EXPORT_CH_LINEITEMS) I'm asked to fill dozens of columns. And almost all of them are mandatory
I was told that this ABAP Function is somehow connected to a structure (sorry, I dont have a lot of experience in SAP ERP), and all those columns belong to that structure.
My question is, if I want to get some data from this ABAP function on IDT, do I have to fill all those mandatory import columns?
Is there a way to do that without filling all of that? I can't understand why if I go througt SE38 in SAP ERP I just have to fill 3 fields, and on IDT I have to fill dozens of mandatory columns.
Thanks in advance,
José Queiroga

Hello Jose,
based on the screenshot it looks like those are all input parameters - yes, but perhaps it is not the correct "export" item and you should be using the line item above.
That is something you wanna clarify with the person that knows those ABAP functions.
Also - ABAP Functions are perhaps not the best source for reporting, especially not for IDT.
Perhaps you wanna look at the option to use an classic InfoSet without any parameters
