Step-by-Step procedure to create an InfoPackage Group & a Scenario!!

Hello BW Experts,
IF we have 10 InfoPackages and if we need to create an InfoPackage Group for 7 of them, How do we do it??
Plz provide a detailed Step-by-Step procedure for the same/ create an InfoPackage group!!
Ur help is really appreciated!!
Thanks & Regards,
Sapster.

Hello Stefan,
Thanks for ur response...with ur detailed steps..really helpful.
While sheduling at the last ..by clicking the context menu of our created IP Group.. I am not getting any screen to schedule the same..(I am getting amessage at the mottom saying its not possible to run it in the back ground for my client workstation or similar to this)
Could u plz let me know.. what it looks like for these remaining steps
"Right click on the InfoPackage Group that you just created -> Schedule -> Check that all InfoPackages are selected -> Schedule the job just as you normally do with a InfoPackage."... thansk again.. assigend points...

Is InfoPackage Group is the only way to run the InfoPackages Parallel???

Hello BW Experts,
If we want to divide a huge full upload InfoPackage with certain selection ranges in each InfoPackage, do we have to run them one by one according to our selcetions or can we run them parallel to each other??
If we run these IPs parallel, is InfoPackage group is the only way or is there any other option and if yes, which one is better??
plz help..!!
Thanks & regards,
Sapster.
(assure points)

Hi,
Please do not assure us of your points...points are integral to SDN and everyone knows about them.
In your previous posts, you have been advised that InfoPackage groups are obsolete and that you should proceed with process chains. Have you read those replies?

InfoPackage is one option. The better, more widely used and recommended option is using Process Chains.
Hope this helps...

How to create InfoPackage Groups.

Hi All,
There are 3 infoPackages which i have to create and include in the InfoPackage Group.
Since I am not aware of InfoPackage Groups Can any body tell me the proceure and anybody can send Documents
Regards,
Chakri

Hi,
InfoPackageGroups have been used in older BW Release for designing a data staging (upload) process. Since BW Release 3.1 this is done with process chains.
My exprience is, that InfoPackageGroup are much easyier to define, but have many disadvantages:
- the only allow strict sequentiel or full parallel load of infopackages
- if one infopackage fails (red) in a sequentiel group, the whole group is stopped
- other processes like change-run, deleting of old psa-requests etc. cannot be included directly.
So I suggest to use process-chains instead of Infopackage groups.
Creating a Infopackage group:
In RSA1 click on Infosources . you'll see a icon for infopackage grooups on the middle panel beside the search,legend icon, click on it then a right panel opens where you can see the list of infopackage groups.Right click on the top node and say create.
Drag and drop your infopackagesfrom the left pane in it and right click and say schedule.
It will open a window enabling you to prioritise your info package loads in the order you wnt.
Hope it helps,
Thanks,
Happy Life,
Aravind

Creating Info-Package Groups

Hi All,
We are running a Job through Process chain. But due to some bug it is taking 4 Hrs to complete. We tried executing the Info-Packages manually. It completed with in 30 Mins. So we are planning to create IP group to trigger that Job instead of through Process chain.
Can you please explain how to create the Info Package Group and how to include info packeges in to the IP Group.
After creating IP group we have to schedule a Job to trigger this IP group which inturn triggers the Info packages.
If possible please explain the steps for the above process.
Million of thanks in advance.
Regards,
Reddi.

Hi,
Procedure to create InfoPackage Group
Go to InfoSource tree in modeling of the Administrator Workbench and choose in the standard toolbar of the right area of the screen Show InfoPackage Group.
On the right-hand side of the screen, you will see the InfoPackage group tree.
Highlight a node of the InfoPackage group tree and create a new InfoPackage group using the context menu (right mouse click). This is always inserted underneath the highlighted node.
Select an InfoPackage (in the InfoSource tree in the middle area of the screen) that you want to transfer to the InfoPackage group and move it into the InfoPackage group you want by using drag & drop.
You can assign as many InfoPackages as you like to an InfoPackage group.
InfoPackages with the same selection conditions, same assignment for combination of InfoSource / DataSource / source system, same data type (transaction data or master data), and same data target cannot be assigned to the same InfoPackage group.
Alternatively to the above procedure, you can also create an InfoPackage group in the monitoring view of the Administrator Workbench. However, in this view it is not possible to insert InfoPackages into the InfoPackage Group.
You have created an InfoPackage group and have inserted InfoPackages into the InfoPackage group. You can now
Scheduling an InfoPackage Group
Choose Show InfoPackage Groups in the InfoSource tree of the Administrator Workbench Modeling, or choose the InfoPackages view in Monitoring of the AWB.
Select an InfoPackage group from the InfoPackage group tree and choose Schedule.
You arrive in the scheduler (InfoPackage group maintenance) with the InfoPackages and Scheduling tab pages.
Select the InfoPackages you want to load.
By default, all InfoPackages are selected.
On the tab page InfoPackages, number the InfoPackages that are assigned to the group according to the sequence in which the loading process is to be carried out.
For the InfoPackages, select whether you want the monitor to run a check during the data update to see if the first request from the list has been completely and correctly processed. Only then will the request for which this indicator has been set be processed.
Define a fixed delay of one minute for the individual InfoPackages. The delay represents the wait time until the next request is carried out.
Schedule the InfoPackage group in the background.

Creating a web group through Web Services

User web services, we're able to create Presentation users merely by calling SAWSessionService's logon or logonex methods. But how can I create a web group?

Yes, I'm using 10.1.3.2. Let me give more detail.
Our RPD is setup to perform external database authentication. We use initialization blocks to perform this, and it works great. We can "login" by using NQUser in the URL or using the login or loginex methods. If the user doesn't exist in the presentation catalog, the user gets added if the authentication is successful.
We've been using web services to create catalog objects (dashboards, folders, etc.) and add ACL to them. But we've been doing this on a user-by-user basis. Now, we wish to add ACL for groups instead of users. But step one is to first create a presentation group. We can't find a programmatic way to do this. At first, I assumed we could create a catalog item via WebCatalogService's writeObject service. But when looking for the XML that defines a "group", we found out that a group is not defined by an XML. As someone wrote previously, I can't find any other service that creates a group.
Once again, can a group be created through OBI's web services? It feels like it does everything else.

InfoPackage Group reschedule ...!

We have the nightly loads set up to run under username SAPBatch. When a load fails, we either have to rerun each of the InfoPackages individually (a painful tedious process) or cancel the SAPBatch job so we can reschedule the InfoPackage Group (which means the Basis Team has
to reschedule it under SAPBatch). An obvious third alternative is to create duplicate InfoPackage Groups for use when we need to rerun a job (but that means duplicate maintenance and I can't find any easy way to (create a copy).
My questions:
1. Why do we do it that way? What are the benefits of running under SAPBatch? What are the disadvantages of running under a real user's name?
2. Is there another alternative? Some way of rerunning the InfoPackage Group without stopping the SAPBatch job? Or some other way of getting the job done?
3. Is there any way other than building one from scratch (which takes forever)?
4. What do other BW users do? Is there anything that is considered a "best practice"?

1. Why do we do it that way? What are the benefits of running under SAPBatch? What are the disadvantages of running under a real user's name?
It is good to use a common Batch ID which has maximum auth coz,
1> No need to worry abt individual user auth who will run that job
2> Users might change frequently, so jobs scheduled under their name will suffer if their ids are removed.
2. Is there another alternative? Some way of rerunning the InfoPackage Group without stopping the SAPBatch job? Or some other way of getting the job done?
If you have your jobs are scheduled based on events, it is very easy just to trigger that event to start the job.
3. Is there any way other than building one from scratch (which takes forever)?
Instead consider swithcing all stuff to Process Chains. INfopPack groups are no longer supported by SAP I guess.
4. What do other BW users do? Is there anything that is considered a "best practice"?
Process Chains!

Step by Step procedure to create an entire scenario Using CAF

Dear All,
I have a scenario to develop using Composite Application Framework.After creating the CAF i need to display the CAF on the portal. step by step procedure(if possible with screen shots) to create a CAF and how to find web services and then display this application on portal.
Thanks

Hi Yogi,
In your sceanario if you are looking to build either Enity or Application service then create it and test that service from "Service Browser". Once your service is working as per your reqyurements then we have to options to bring it into the Portal:
1. Generate Web Service for you Service (Entity or Application).
2. Consume that Web Service in WebDynpro application using Model concepts.
3. Deploy your WebDynpro Application into your portal Server.
4. Create a WebDynpro iView for your application and assign it any where you want.
OR
1. Generate WebDynpro model for your CAF application.
2. Create a public part for you application webdynpro project of your CAF application.
3. Create a new WebDynpro DC and use the Models generated for your CAF application.
4. Deploy your WebDynpro Application into your portal Server.
5. Create a WebDynpro iView for your application and assign it any where you want.
If you can give your complete scenario then that would be more helpful for any one to provide best answer which is approapriate for you.
Thanks,
Uday.

Hi
Business Add-Ins
Business Add-Ins are a new SAP enhancement technique based on ABAP Objects. They can be inserted into the SAP System to accommodate user requirements too specific to be included in the standard delivery. Since specific industries often require special functions, SAP allows you to predefine these points in your software.
As with customer exits (SMOD/CMOD [Page 40]), two different views are available:
In the definition view, an application programmer predefines exit points in a source that allow specific industry sectors, partners, and customers to attach additional software to standard SAP source code without having to modify the original object.
In the implementation view, the users of Business Add-Ins can customize the logic they need or use a standard logic if one is available.
In contrast to customer exits, Business Add-Ins no longer assume a two-system infrastructure (SAP and customers), but instead allow for multiple levels of software development (by SAP, partners, and customers, and as country versions, industry solutions, and the like). Definitions and implementations of Business Add-Ins can be created at each level within such a system infrastructure.
SAP guarantees the upward compatibility of all Business Add-In interfaces. Release upgrades do not affect enhancement calls from within the standard software nor do they affect the validity of call interfaces. You do not have to register Business Add-Ins in SSCR.
The Business Add-In enhancement technique differentiates between enhancements that can only be implemented once and enhancements that can be used actively by any number of customers at the same time.
In addition, Business Add-Ins can be defined according to filter values. This allows you to control add-in implementation and make it dependent on specific criteria (on a specific Country value, for example). All ABAP sources, screens, GUIs, and table interfaces created using this enhancement technique are defined in a manner that allows customers to include their own enhancements in the standard.
A single Business Add-In contains all of the interfaces necessary to implement a specific task. In Release 4.6A, program and menu enhancements can be made with Business Add-Ins. The actual program code is enhanced using ABAP Objects. In order to better understand the programming techniques behind the Business Add-In enhancement concept, SAP recommends reading the section on ABAP Objects
DEFINING THE BADI
1) execute Tcode SE18.
2) Specify a definition Name : ZBADI_SPFLI
3) Press create
4) Choose the attribute tab. Specify short desc for badi.. and specify the type :
multiple use.

8) place the cursor on the method name desc its parameters to define the interface.
Parameter type refe field desc
I_carrid import spfli-carrid some
I_connid import spefi-connid some
9) save , check and activateadapter class proposed by system is
ZCL_IM_IM_LINESEL is genereated.
IMPLEMENTATION OF BADI DEFINITION
1) EXECUTE tcode se18.choose menuitem create from the implementation menubar.
2) Specify aname for implementation ZIM_LINESEL
3) Specify short desc.
4) Choose interface tab. System proposes a name fo the implementation class.
ZCL_IM_IMLINESEL which is already generarted.
5) Specify short desc for method
6) Dbl clk on method to insert code..(check the code in AAA).

u can find BADI's in different ways...
1>First go to any transaction->iN THE menu bar SYSTEM->STATUS->Get the program name ->double click->u will go to the program attached to the tcode.Now search term will be CALL CL_EXITHANDLER.Now u will get list of BADI'S available..
2>Goto SE24->Give class name as CL_EXITHANDLER->Display->double click on get_instance mathod->Now u will go inside the method->Now put break point on the cl_exithandler.Now go to any transaction code and pass dat..U will see that it will be stopped on the break point which u set on the cl_exithandler...In the exit name u can find list of badi's attached to the tcode..
There are multiple ways of searching for BADI.
Finding BADI Using CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE
Finding BADI Using SQL Trace (TCODE-ST05).
Finding BADI Using Repository Information System (TCODE- SE84).
1. Go to the Transaction, for which we want to find the BADI, take the example of Transaction VD02. Click on System->Status. Double click on the program name. Once inside the program search for CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE.
Make sure the radio button In main program is checked. A list of all the programs with call to the BADIs will be listed.
The export parameter EXIT_NAME for the method GET_INSTANCE of class CL_EXITHANDLER will have the user exit assigned to it. The changing parameter INSTANCE will have the interface assigned to it. Double click on the method to enter the source code.Definition of Instance would give you the Interface name.
2. Start transaction ST05 (Performance Analysis).
Set flag field "Buffer trace"
Remark: We need to trace also the buffer calls, because BADI database tables are buffered. (Especially view V_EXT_IMP and V_EXT_ACT)
Push the button "Activate Trace". Start transaction VA02 in a new GUI session. Go back to the Performance trace session.
Push the button "Deactivate Trace".
Push the button "Display Trace".
The popup screen "Set Restrictions for Displaying Trace" appears.
Now, filter the trace on Objects:
V_EXT_IMP
V_EXT_ACT
Push button "Multiple selections" button behind field Objects
Fill: V_EXT_IMP and V_EXT_ACT
All the interface class names of view V_EXT_IMP start with IF_EX_. This is the standard SAP prefix for BADI class interfaces. The BADI name is after the IF_EX_.
So the BADI name of IF_EX_CUSTOMER_ADD_DATA is CUSTOMER_ADD_DATA
3. Go to Maintain Transaction (TCODE- SE93).
Enter the Transaction VD02 for which you want to find BADI.
Click on the Display push buttons.
Get the Package Name. (Package VS in this case)
Go to TCode: SE84->Enhancements->Business Add-inns->Definition
Enter the Package Name and Execute.
Here you get a list of all the Enhancement BADIs for the given package MB.
The simplese way for finding BADI is
1. chooes Tcode Program & package for that Tcode.
2. Go to Tcode se18
3. Press F4
4. search by package or by program.

Step-by step procedure for INBOUND IDOC (VENDOR CREATE / CHANGE)

Hi ,
Can any body provide me the step-by-step procedure for Inbound IDOCS.
As i'm new to this i need the the clarification between Inbound & outbound idocs.
How can we differentiate both?
where to define outbound & where to define Inbound?
( If possible Please explain me the procedure for Vendor Create through INBOUND IDOCS )
Thanks in advance..

Hi,
Ale Technology is SAPu2019s technology to support distributed yet integrated processes across several SAP systems.
Outbound Process:
ALE Outbound Process in SAP sends data to one or more SAP Systems. It involves four steps.
1. Identify the need of IDoc: This step starts upon creating a application document, can relate to a change to a master data object.
2. Generate the Master IDoc: The document or master data to be sent is read from the database and formatted into an IDoc format. This IDoc is called as a Master IDoc.
3. Generate the Communication IDoc: The ALE Service layer generates a separate IDoc from the Master IDoc for each recipient who is interested in the data. Separate IDocs are generated because each recipient might demand a different version or a subset of the Master IDoc. These recipient-specific IDocs are called Communication IDocs and are stored in the database.
4. Deliver the Communication IDoc: The IDoc is delivered to the recipients using an asynchronous communication method. This allows the sending system to continue its processing without having to wait for the destination system to receiver or process the IDoc.
Inbound Process:
The inbound process receives an IDoc and creates a document in the system.
1. Store the IDoc in the database: The IDoc is received from the sending system and stored in the database. Then the IDoc goes through a basic integrity check and syntax check.
2. Invoke the Posting Module: The control information in the IDoc and configuration tables are read to determine the posting program. The IDoc is then transferred to its posting program.
3. Create the Document: The posting program reads the IDoc data and then creates a document in the system. The results are logged in the IDoc.
Over view of IDocs:
IDoc is a container that is used to exchange data between any two processes. The document represented in an IDoc is independent of the complex structure SAP uses to store application data. This type of flexibility enables SAP to rearrange its internal structure without affecting the existing interface.
IDoc interface represents an IDoc Type or IDoc data. IDoc Type represents IDocu2019s definition and IDoc Data is an instance of the IDoc Type.
IDoc Types:
IDoc type structure can consist of several segments, and each segment can consist of several data fields. The IDoc structure defines the syntax of the data by specifying a list of permitted segments and arrangement of the segments. Segments define a set of fields and their format.
An IDoc is an instance of an IDoc Type and consists of three types of records.
i. One Control record: each IDoc has only one control record. The control record contains all the control information about an IDoc, including the IDoc number, the sender and recipient information, and information such as the message type it represents and IDoc type. The control record structure is same for all IDocs.
ii. One or Many Data records: An IDoc can have multiple data records, as defined by the IDoc structure. Segments translate into data records, which store application data, such as purchase order header information and purchase order detail lines.
iii. One or Many Status records: An IDoc can have multiple status records. Status record helps to determine whether an IDoc has any error.
Message in IDoc Type:
A Message represents a specific type of document transmitted between two partners.
Outbound Process in IDocs:
Outbound process used the following components to generate an IDoc. A customer model, and IDoc structure, selection programs, filter objects, conversion rules, a port definition, an RFC destination, a partner profile, service programs, and configuration tables.
The Customer Model:
A customer model is used to model a distribution scenario. In a customer model, you identify the systems involved in a distribution scenario and the message exchanged between the systems.
Message control:
Message control is a cross application technology used in pricing, account determination, material determination, and output determination. The output determination technique of Message control triggers the ALE for a business document. Message control separates the logic of generating IDocs from the application logic.
Change Pointers:
The change pointers technique is based on the change document technique, which tracks changes made to key documents in SAP, such as the material master, customer master and sales order.
Changes made to a document are recorded in the change document header table CDHDR, and additional change pointers are written in the BDCP table for the changes relevant to ALE.
IDoc Structure:
A message is defined for data that is exchanged between two systems. The message type is based on one or more IDoc structures.
Selection Program:
Is typically implemented as function modules, are designed to extract application data and create a master IDoc. A selection program exists for each message type. A selection programu2019s design depends on the triggering mechanism used in the process.
Filter Objects;
Filter Objects remove unwanted data for each recipient of the data basing on the recipients requirement.
Port Definition:
A port is used in an outbound process to define the medium in which documents are transferred to the destination system. ALE used a Transactional RFC port, which transfers data in memory buffers.
RFC Destination:
The RFC destination is a logical name used to define the characteristics of a communication link to a remote system on which a function needs to be executed.
Partner Profile:
A partner profile specifies the components used in an outbound process(logical name of the remote SAP system, IDoc Type, message type, TRFC port), an IDocu2019s packet size, the mode in which the process sends an IDoc (batch versus immediate), and the person to be notified in case of error.
Service Programs and Configuration Tables:
The outbound process, being asynchronous, is essentially a sequence of several processes that work together. SAP provides service programs and configuration tables to link these programs and provide customizing options for an outbound process.
Process flow for Distributing Transactional Data:
Transactional data is distributed using two techniques: with Message control and without message control.
Process flow for Distributing Master Data:
Master data between SAP systems is distributed using two techniques: Stand alone Programs and Change Pointers.
Triggering the Outbound Process via Stand-Alone Programs:
Stand-Alone programs are started explicitly by a user to transmit data from one SAP system to another. Standard Programs for several master data objects exist in SAP. Ex. The material master data can be transferred using the RBDSEMAT program or transaction BD10.
The stand-alone programs provide a selection screen to specify the objects to be transferred and the receiving system. After the stand-alone program is executed, it calls the IDoc selection program with the specified parameters.
Triggering the Outbound Process via Change Pointers:
The change pointer technique is used to initiate the outbound process automatically when master data is created or changed.
A standard program, RBDMIDOC, is scheduled to run on a periodic basis to evaluate the change pointers for a message type and start the ALE process for distributing the master data to the appropriate destination. The RBDMIDOC program reads the table TBDME to determine the IDoc selection program for a message type.
Processing in the Application Layer:
The customer distribution model is consulted to make sure that a receiver has been defined for the message to be transmitted. If not, processing ends. If at least one receiver exists, the IDoc selection program reads the master data object from the database and creates a master IDoc from it. The master IDoc is stored in memory. The program then calls the ALE service layer by using the function module MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE, passing the master IDoc and the receiver information.
Processing in the ALE Interface Layer:
Processing in the ALE Layer consists of the following steps:
u2022 Receiver Determination: The determination of the receiver is done through Customer Distribution Model.
u2022 IDoc Filtering: if an IDoc filter is specified in the distribution model for a receiver, values in the filter are compared against the values in the IDoc data records. If a data record does not meet the filter criteria, it is dropped.
u2022 Segment Filtering: For each sender and receiver combination, a set of segments that are not required can be filtered out.
u2022 Field conversion: Field values in data records are converted by using the conversion rules specified for the segment.
u2022 Version change for segments: Segments are version-controlled. A new version of a segment always contains fields from the preceding version and fields added for the new version. Release in IDoc type field of the partner profile to determine the version of the segment to be generated.
u2022 Version change for IDocs: IDocs are also version controlled. The version is determined from the Basic Type field of the partner profile.
u2022 Communication IDocs generated: The final IDoc generated for a receiver after all the conversions and filtering operations is the communication IDoc. One master IDoc can have multiple communication IDocs depending on the number of receivers identified and the filter operations performed. IDoc gets the status record with a status code of 01 (IDoc Created).
u2022 Syntax check performed: IDoc goes through a syntax check and data integrity validation. If errors found the IDoc get the status of 26 (error during syntax check of IDoc u2013 Outbound). If no errors found the IDoc gets the status 30 (IDoc ready for dispatch u2013 ALE Service).
u2022 IDoc dispatched to the communication Layer: In the ALE process, IDocs are dispatched using the asynchronous RFC method, which means that the sending system does not await for data to be received or processed on the destination system. After IDocs have been transferred to the communication layer, they get a status code 01 (Data Passed to Port OK).
Processing in the Communication Layer:
To dispatch an IDoc to a destination system, the system reads the port definition specified in the partner profile to determine the destination system, which is then used to read the RFC destination. The RFC destination contains communication settings to log o to the remote SAP system. The sending system calls the INBOUND_IDOC_PROCESS function module asynchronously on the destination system and passes the IDoc data via the memory buffers.
Inbound Process in IDocs:
An inbound process used IDoc structure, posting programs, filter objects, conversion rules, a partner profile, service programs, and configuration tables to post an application document from an IDoc.
Posting Program:
Posting programs, which are implemented as function modules, read data from an IDoc and create an application document from it. A posting program exists for each message. Each posting program is assigned a process code. A process code can point to a function module or a work flow. In the standard program process codes always point to a function module.
Ex. The posting program for message type MATMAS is IDOC_INPUT_MATMAS which has a process code MATM.
Workflow:
A workflow represents a sequence of customized steps to be carried out for a process. The workflow management system is used to model the sequence, identify information required to carry out the steps and identify the person responsible for the dialog steps.
Partner Profile;
A partner profile specifies the components used in an inbound process (partner number, message type, and process code), the mode in which IDocs are processed (batch versus immediate), and the person to be notified in case of errors.
Process flow for the Inbound process via a Function Module:
In this process, IDocs are received from another system and passed to the posting function module directly.
1. Processing in the communication Layer:
The IDOC_INBOUND_ASYCHRONOUS program, triggered as a result of an RFC from the sending system, acts as the entry point for all inbound ALE processes. The IDoc to be processed is passed as an input parameter. Control is transferred to the ALE/EDI layer.
2. Processing in the ALE/EDI Interface Layer:
u2022 Basic integrity check: A basic integrity check is performed on the control record.
u2022 Segment Filtering and conversion: Filtering out unwanted segments and carry out any required conversion of field values.
u2022 Creation of Application IDoc: The application IDoc is created and stored in the database and a syntax check is performed. If there are errors it gets status code of 60 (Error during Syntax check of IDoc u2013 Inbound). At this point a tangible IDoc, which can be monitored via one of the monitoring transactions, is created and the IDoc gets status code 50 (IDoc Added).
u2022 IDoc Marked ready for Dispatch: IDoc gets the status code 64 (IDoc ready to be passed to application).
u2022 IDoc is passed to the posting program: The partner profile table is read. If the value of the Processing field is set to Process Immediately, the IDoc is passed to the posting program immediately using the program RBDAPP01.
3. Processing in the Posting Module:
The process code in the partner profile points to a posting module for the specific message in the IDoc. The posting program implemented as a function module either calls a standard SAP transaction by using the Call Transaction command for posting the document or invokes a direct input function module.
The results of execution are passed back via the function moduleu2019s output parameters. If the posting is successful IDoc gets the status code 53 (Application Document Posted) or it gets status code 51 (Error: Application Document Not Posted).

Hi
Are you using USERS_GEN transaction in SRM to create users ? Please read the SAP documentation in this case associated with the transaction using SRM GUI logon..
Which option do you use in USERS_GEN : file upload ?
In your case where the "US" (User) link is missing: is the SU01 user created ? Wasn't is already created before USERS_GEN ?
If the system is not able to create the CP <-> US relation, you should get back an error message in USERS_GEN.
Please go through the related very helpful pointers ->
