Support of Custom defined essbase functions in Arabic v11.1.2.2

Hi Gurus,
Need your help in understanding if the CDF Essbasefunctions - String and Export are supported in v11.1.2.2 Arabic installation.
The readme link mentioned CDF package does not give any information on the language support.
Need to to understand as this might pose a constraint during migration, as current application in 11.1.1.3(English installation) uses CDF function extensively and the same is required after migration to 11.1.2.2 Arabic version.
All your inputs appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
SN

Dear experts,
Awating your inputs on the post.
Please let me know if you have come accros this requirement and how this was handle.
Thanks in advance.

BI Integrated Planning Self-defined planning function type ( RSPLF1 )

Dear all,
I got 2 questions regarding the new BIIP customer defined planning function type.
1. How do we create the class for the planning function type ? Do we copy standard one( like CL_RSPLFC_DELETE ) as template ? Or , can we create a class whcih use standard class as a supper class and change the methods as we want?
2. Since the planning modeler is running on web , is it possible to debug the self-defined planning function type in SAPGUI?
Thank you,
Jeff

Hi Jeff,
from the documentation it seems that you have to copy the delivered Classes: two methods are mandatory (the ones about execution IF_RSPLFA_SRVTYPE_IMP_EXEC and IF_RSPLFA_SRVTYPE_IMP_EXEC_REF). See the on line help:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/43/548bafbc0f357ee10000000a11466f/frameset.htm
I didn't try yet, did you? Have you experienced something different?

How can I move this post to BPS forum?

Jeff,
Copying a standard planning function is the simplest way to begin and CL_RSPLFC_DELETE is the simplest function, so that is the ideal one to start with (assuming you are not looking to collect reference data as well).
As far as debugging, simply put a hard BREAK-POINT statement in your method(s) and it will break as desired whenever you test it from the planning modeler.

HowTo: Business User defining Planning Functions?

Hi all,
does anybody have experience with allowing Business users Defining Planning Functions (e.g. account A = account B - account C) and could share a rough concept? I basically think about Fox-Formulas, but this includes issues with authorization in productive system.
Are there any solutions with translating free-text-Formulas (e.g. defined in an Attribut or flatfile, see scenario below) into ABAP or FOX Code?
Thanks for sharing your ideas and experiences,
Best regards,
Michael
Our scenario:
- Business users are responsible (and authorized) for specific local Companies.
- Values of the Chart of accounts are typed in into a input-ready query.
- for Dummy accounts (e.g. Z01) of the local companies no planning is allowed in the plan version, but business users should be allowed to define a specific formula, such as:
= + *
- these functions run at the end of the planning process in a separate planning version for translating local data into global accounts
- At best these functions should be maintained as an attribut of the dummy accounts or as free text in a text field next to the account in the plan query, but how to translate the formula into a Fox or ABAP formula without great effort?
- When using FOX, the issue is, that it is a different GUI and there would have to be a function for each company (there will come new companies) and so on....

Hi Matthias,
thanks for the post. The problem isnt of keying in the formula isn't that big, this can for example be done in an attribute Char 60 with Flatfile upload for each planning process.
My problem is more
a) if I use FOX Formulas - the usage of fox formulas in productive system for Business User
I still think that using FOX formulas is the easiest thing to implement, but probably the hardest to run and maintain life. Are there any best practises / how tos about authorization and IP architecture for that?
b) if I use formulas as Text - the formula parsing itself and the communication with the planning function
Here you gave me the hint of using customer defined planning functions. That's probably the best thing. I first thought about about a formula parser that is called by fox. Still, parsing free text into structured formulas isn't easy, is it? Are there any how-tows?
best regards,
Michael

Error while creating Custom Defined Functions in Essbase

Hi All, I am trying to create CDF(Custom Defined Functions) in Essbase. Iwant to create a function which take list of child member andreturn the first child. For this, i have created a java file called"ChildAccess.java" which contains the following code: public class ChildAccess { public static char GetFirstMember(char [] members) { return members[0]; } } I have compiled and made jar file called"ChildAccess.jar" and pasted it at"ARBORPATH/java/udf". Then i restarted the Essbase Serverand run the following MaxL command to register the function create or replace function '@ChildAccess' as 'ChildAccess.GetFirstMember' spec '@ChildAccess(memberRange)' comment 'adds list of input members'. Till here i am not getting any error but when i am using thisfunction in my calc script as given below FIX(@ChildAccess(@CHILDREN("Abc"))) it gives the following error "Error:1200414 Error parsing formula for [FIX STATEMENT] (line 2)"argument[1] may not have size[6] in function[@CHILDREN]" NOTE: The SIZE[6] is giving the no. of child in member"ABC". Thanks in Advance Arpit

If you want to use the CDF in a FIX statement you need to make sure that it returns a member name rather than a number: public class ChildAccess { public static String GetFirstMember(String[] members) { return members[0]; } } I prefer to define the function against a specific application rather than globally because you only need to restart the application in order to pick-up any modifications to the .jar file. So the MaxL function definition would be: create or replace function appname.'@_GETFIRSTMEMBER' as 'ChildAccess.GetFirstMember(String[])'; and in the calculation script the FIX statement would become: fix ( @member( @_GetFirstMember( @name( @children( "Abc" ) ) ) ) ) This looks a little messy so you can use a macro to simplify it: create or replace macro appname.'@GETFIRSTMEMBER'(single) as '@member( @_GETFIRSTMEMBER( @name( @@1 ) ) )' SPEC "@GETFIRSTMEMBER(memberRange)"; and then the FIX statement could be written: fix( @getfirstmember( @children( "PRODUCT" ) ) )

Custom Defined Function problem - @JSUM

I'm having trouble getting custom defined functions to work on my 64-bit Essbase 11.1.1.3 instalaltion.
I'm following the instructions and example provided in the 11.1.1 Essbase Database Administrator guide, pages 495 - 498.
I'm using the sample calc provided along with the sample CDF (copied from the book - with the locale automatically added by Essbase):
//ESS_LOCALE English_UnitedStates.Latin1@Binary
"New York" = @JSUM(@LIST(2.3, 4.5, 6.6, 1000.34));
The source code for the @JSUM is as follows:
public class CalcFunc {
public static double sum (double[] data) {
int i, n = data.length;
double sum = 0.0d;
for (i=0; i<n; i++) {
double d = data ;
sum = sum + d;
return sum;
Registering the function worked just fine - I just cut and pasted from the manual:
create function Sample.'@JSUM'
as 'CalcFunc.sum'
spec '@JSUM(memberRange)'
comment 'adds list of input members';
When I attempt to run the calc script Sample.Basic, I get this error:
Error: 1200324 Error compiling formula for [New York] (line 2): operator expected after [@JSUM]
Also, I notice the following error in the Sample application log file when it starts:
[Tue May 11 15:23:43 2010]Local/Sample///Info(1002035)
Starting Essbase Server - Application [Sample]

[Tue May 11 15:23:43 2010]Local/Sample///Warning(1200490)
Wrong java method specification [CalcFunc.sum] (function [@JSUM]): []
Can anyone provide guidance to how to resolve this error?

Turns out this problem can be resolved by the proper JDK settings.
I was using JDK 1.6 to compile my code (as its a pain to find and download the 1.5 JDK). Essbase uses a 1.5 JVM.
The following errors can be resolved by the proper javac settings:
Java Virtual Machine error
Wrong java method specification
Here is the new javac line I used with JDK 1.6:
javac -target 5 CalcFunc.java

Custome BAPI - declare ITAB and define the Function Module and Subroutine

Hello Experts
I want to create a Custom BAPI and it has the following scenario:
1) a Function Module which collects some records into it internal table, say ITAB
2) a Subroutine which moved the records from ITAB to BAPI table
Now, I want to declare ITAB and define the Function Module and Subroutine.
Where and How can I do this?
Plz suggest.
Regards
BD

Hi,
1) Got to SE37 and create an RFC .
2) Declare the ITAB directly in the TABLES tab of the FM.
3) Inside the FM source Code tab, collect all the data using SELECT query and directly or by using logic, put the data into the
      ITAB.
4) Since the data collected is directly put into the itab you dont need a subroutine to be written.
5) If subroutine is a necessity, then just write PERFORM SUB ROUTINE NAME.
       AND DEFINE THE FORM ENDFORM OF THE SUBROUTINE AFTER THE ENDFUNCTION OF THE FM
   Let me know if any issues....
Regards,
Vimal.

How can I call a stateful webservice from a user-defined XPath function?

I'm calling a stateful webservice from a BPEL process using a PartnerLink which implements Custom Header Handler classes to handle the session state, storing the cookie as a property of the PartnerLink.
I'd also like to call this same stateful webservice, in the same session, from a user-defined XPath function enabling me to call this from an XSL Transformation.
Is this in any way possible? Can I access the cookie and attach it to the webservice call made by the user-defined XPath function?

Actually, as long as the servlet returns valid javascript, you can indeed "call it" from the client. It will initiate a request and return the result to the browser.
This example uses Perl, but it could be easily modified to go to a servlet instead.
Note that it is only supported in DOM browsers (IE6+/NN6+/etc)

How can I use User-Defined Aggregate Functions in Timesten 11? such as ODCI

Hi
we are using Timesten 11 version and as per the documentation, it doesn't support User-Defined Aggregate Functions.
So we are looking for alternatives to do it. Could you please provide your expert voice on this.
Thanks a lot.
As the following:
create or replace type strcat_type as object (
cat_string varchar2(32767),
static function ODCIAggregateInitialize(cs_ctx In Out strcat_type) return number,
member function ODCIAggregateIterate(self In Out strcat_type,value in varchar2) return number,
member function ODCIAggregateMerge(self In Out strcat_type,ctx2 In Out strcat_type) return number,
member function ODCIAggregateTerminate(self In Out strcat_type,returnValue Out varchar2,flags in number) return
number
How can I use User-Defined Aggregate Functions in Timesten 11? such as ODCIAggregateInitialize ?

Dear user6258915,
You absolutely right, TimesTen doesnt support object types (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E13085_01/doc/timesten.1121/e13076/plsqldiffs.htm) and User-Defined Aggregate Functions.
Is it crucial for your application? Could you rewrite this functionality by using standart SQL or PL/SQL?

XSLT Mapping - user defined Extension function

Hi to all,
can somebody helps me, please?
I need an own function, that can be used by the XSL Mapper. First I have only tried the sample given in Path <BPELPM>\integration\orabpel\samples\demos\XSLMapper\ExtensionFunctions
There is a java file with the defined functions and a xml file with the definition of this function for the mapper and last but not least a jar-file with the java class.
I have copied the jar to <JDEV_HOME>\jdev\lib\ext directory and in JDeveloper I have added SampleExtensionFunctions.xml to Tools->Preferences->XSL Map -> "User Defined Extension Functions Config File" field. After a restart of JDeveloper I find 2 new functions in the "User Defined Extension Functions" component palette page when a XSL Map is open. That's fine.
But if I test the mapping I get an error: "Failed to transform source XML.
java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: For extension function, could not find method org.apache.xpath.objects.XNodeSet.replaceChar([ExpressionCotext,]#STRING, #STRING)."
What is wrong?
Thanks in advance of your answer

Oracle XML support Extension function.
For example:
If we would like to import FAQDBUri.class with user-defined java functions, like TranslateDBUri(), we can write XSL file like this:

<xsl:variable name="urladd" select="dburig:TranslateDBUri($url)"/>

Can we define a function in a sub process?

Hi ,
I want to know whether we can define a function in a sub-process ? coz I see only notifications defined in the sub_process in seeded oracle workflows .
also highlight if we are the running the workflow from developer studio do we need call the main process first or the sub-process first ?
Regards,
Shashk

Hello Shashk,
Yes functions can be used in sub-processes. If you are creating a custom function, it must be defined in a specific fashion to work with WF. See the Workflow Developer Guide for your version. 2.6.2 available here:
[http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/workflow.920/a95265/toc.htm|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/workflow.920/a95265/toc.htm]
Not sure about Developer Studio per se but typically you can run any process in a workflow that is marked 'runnable'.

Is it possible to define a function in the MathScript Node

Is it possible to define a function in the MathScript Node

You can not define a function inside of a MathScript Node, but only because it isn't necessary. The way custom functions work in MathScript is that they are saved in .m files located in paths in the MathScript path list. When the MathScript compiler receives a function that it doesn't recognize, then it searches for it in the path list, and upon finding it, compiles and loads the function. You can specify these search paths manually by going to File>>MathScript Preferences from the MathScript Window or dynamically by using the path() command within a script.
To answer your original question, if you would like to create custom functions dynamically within a VI, then you can simply build your custom functions using strings and then save them to an ASCII file with the extension .m. You could either save the file to a path already in the MathScript path list or you could dynamically specify the path by passing the path into a MathScript Node as a string and by using the path() command at the beginning of your script to set it.

Custom defined FM for purchase price determination

Hi all,
can anybody help me with the problem below..
In IS-retail im assigning a custom defined function module for purchase price determination (MM42 -> sales view -> PP det. seq - 06).
example FM for which is WV_EXAMPLE_01.
but in the import parameter (structure KALP) im not getting the vendor number eventhough it is specified in the screen..
I need vendor number along with material(which im getting) to calculate purchase price..
Can anyone tell me wat the problem is and a solution for it.
Thanks in advance.

Hi ,
In VKP5 calculation,Purchase price Schema is pulled from Purchase price determination sequence.
In PP Determination sequence we can give PP schema based on PP determination type.
If the PP type is A,system will fetch the PP Schema from Standard schema maintained in MM.

User Defined Extension functions XML file

Hi,
Can we define exception In custom XSLT function XML file.
Like i have following Custom XSLT function XML-

<function name="uppercase:GetName" as="string">
<param name="fname" as="string"/>
<param name="lname" as="string"/>
</function>
</functions>
</extension-functions>
So in case i need to throw an exception in my java function GetName so how can i define that in XML?
Please give some suggestion?
Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. When I created extensions.xml (as advised by you) and tried specifying it as User Defined Extension Functions Config file, I get the following error:
Invalid User Extension Functions Config File
Invalid value 'object' for attribute:'as' line 5 column 52
i.e. the following line:
<function name="extensions:getMSPDate" as="object">
Any pointers on what will be the correct value for attribute 'as' for element 'function'?
Also, what is the default namespace being used in the extensions.xml?
Is there a link for more documentation on the format for extensions.xml?
