Hi,
Simply do by pass scenario it will work out easily. Follow below steps
1. Configure SLD objects like product, component, technical & business system.
2. No need IR objects
3. Create ID objects and take channels.
for ID configuration find below link for more help.

Batch Code to trigger bat file whenever there is an error in Eventvwr log error

Batch Code to trigger bat file whenever there is an error in Eventvwr log error

Hello,
You can create a windows service which can look into EventVwr and update you accordingly
Sample code:
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace EventViewer
    class Program
        static void Main(string[] args)
            //logType can be Application, Security, System or any other Custom Log.
            string logType = "Application";
            EventLog ev = new EventLog(logType, System.Environment.MachineName);
            int LastLogToShow = ev.Entries.Count;
            if (LastLogToShow <= 0)
                Console.WriteLine("No Event Logs in the Log :" + logType);
            // Read the last 2 records in the specified log.
            int i;
            for (i = ev.Entries.Count - 1; i >= LastLogToShow - 10; i--)
                EventLogEntry CurrentEntry = ev.Entries[i];
                Console.WriteLine("Event ID : " + CurrentEntry.EventID);
                Console.WriteLine("Entry Type : " + CurrentEntry.EntryType.ToString());
                Console.WriteLine("Message : " + CurrentEntry.Message + "\n");
                Console.ReadKey();
            ev.Close();

Interface Should Trigger the File at Perticular time in a day

Hi Experts,
                 I cam across the different requirement in my company.
I am trigger the file to client twice every week. is it possible to trigger the file like that with the interface, can any one please guide me what are the necessary steps to be taken for this type of interface.
Is it possible to send the file to receiver after one year with the interface.
Regards,
Nissi

Hi Nissi,
You dont need to do any additional configuration in the communication channels.
According to your requirement you need to make use of the option of Availability Planning in Runtime Workbench.
You need to go to the runtime workbench and goto Component Monitoring.Once inside it, you need to select an adapter engine. Once you click Status tab , you need to go to ommunication channel monitoring .Once there then choose the option Availability Time Planning in the communication channel monitor.
Inside you can find options which will guide you on how to go further..............
   Goto Availability Time field and select the interval for the new availability time and then choose Create.
      In the Details tab page, you can make the necessary time specifications,
      You can select the communication channels for which you want to schedule the availability time, in the Communication Channels tab page.
I hope this info will be helpful to you.For any further clarifications you are welcome.

Rohit

Trigger flat file extraction

Hello developers,
Situation is as follows:
External system prodcues flat file on the BW server on a daily basis always with the same name. BW should read the file if it is there and delete it after successful processing.
We want to avoid to schedule on a fixed time, but we want to synchronize the extraction batch job with the external batch that is creating the file.
Thanks for any input.
Kind regards

The solution is fine. Here are some details.
Create the Process Chain. Trigger should be an external event. You can create events in SM62.
The function module RSSM_EVENT_RAISE lets you trigger the event. It is RFC able so you should be able to trigger it from other non-SAP systems too.
The filename should be fixed so you are able to load the file. You can then delete the file with an ABAP of your own. In its most simple form it looks like
REPORT Z_DELETE_FILE.
parameters: filename type RSFILENM.
delete dataset filename.
Now create a variant for Z_DELETE_FILE and put it into the process chain.
Best regards
Dirk

BPM design for trigger based file from Oracle

Hi
We have one requirement as follows:
1. We need to receive trigger file from Oracle.
2. As soon as we recieved trigger file, it needs to activate all other 10 JDBC adapter channels.
3. once reciever all 10 RFC channels completed, it needs to pass that trigger file.
Please suggest design.
Thanks
Siva

Hi Siva,
1. We need to receive trigger file from Oracle.
define a sender CC (FILE) which polls a directory every N seconds.
The receiver of this message should be your BPM.
2. As soon as we recieved trigger file, it needs to activate all other 10 JDBC adapter channels.
in your BPM, trigger your 10 sender CC (JDBC). See sap help and blog to know how to trigger externally a CC. Easy to do.
3. once reciever all 10 RFC channels completed, it needs to pass that trigger file.
Then always in your BPM, you have to do a correlation on the 10 SQL responses (that's crazy!). Several blogs and threads on this subject.
And after that, in BPM what do you do of these 10 SQL responses (thats' crazy!) ? do you have to merge data ?
Welcome to the birthday of a future monster... for dev and maintenance... Sincerely simplify your flow!
Question: do you really need to have 10 SQL? for your needs, is it not possible to create a stored procedure in database which will do the 10 SQL (with Join tables)... if yes do it, by tis way you will have only one Sender CC (JDBC) to trigger, and no correlation in a BPM. That will greatly simplify your flow.

Creating a "map Key" to trigger a file... how would you do this

Is there a way to map a keystroke to open and play a file, (sound affect)?

you can use a 3rd party application launcher for that. lots of them around: Quciksilver, Butler, Spark, Quickeys, iKey.
another way would be to make an automator workflow that opens that file, save it as a service and make a shortcut to that service using keyboard system preferences.

EDI, mass trigger upload files.

Hi,
I've customized EDI to upload a file into SAP. I'm using T-Code WE16. This transaction allows me, using the path and file, to upload the selected file. Is there a standard report, that i can use to schelude the upload of all the files stored in a specific directory ?
Regards,
Pedro Castro

Thanks Ferry,
Like in WE16, in report RSEINB00, i have to indicate the file name. If the name file is generated dynamically, it changes all the time, and the report cant be schedulle (job) for the same variant. Does the name of the file have to be allways the same ?

Trigger File adapter

Hi,
Im new to XI. I have a problem with the handling of the File Adapter.
In my scenario a third party system puts a data file into the directory. The directory and file are configured in the file adapter. XI should not transfer the File until the third party system sends a trigger.
How is it possible to start the transfer in XI by an Abap program ? {Which class is necessary to activate the adapter by program ?}
Is there a better way ?
Many Thanks in advance.
Berthold
Message was edited by: Berthold Latka

Hi Berthold
File adapters can only poll for files using a predefined time interval. There is no way to trigger a file adapter to look for a file.
So files will always send to XI as soon as they appear, and the poll interval is passed.
What you can do is build a business process which collects the file and waits for the trigger from R/3. There are some examples in XI SAP BASIS which explains the use of trigger messages.
Kind regards,

How to trigger an "open file" dialog box

I am using forms 10g. Does anyone know of codes to trigger "open file" dialog box in a button object?
My goal is that the user may be able to select a file from his terminal by clicking a button.
Thanks in advance.

As aweiden suggests, there are additional setup steps that have to be completed on your workstation as well as the Forms server so you can use the WebUtil library. If you are using Forms 10g R2, then I recommend you conduct a search of the Forms Help system (Search tab) on "WebUtil" and select the "Configuring WebUitl" topic. If you are on Forms 10g R1 (9.0.4), then you had to download and install WebUtil on your workstation. I recommend you read the Web_Util.pdf in the "DOC" folder an follow all of the steps in Chapter 2 : Configuring WebUtil.

Writing trigger event time to file

I am new to LabVIEW. I have been modifying the acq_graph_voltage_dig.vi that I found to trigger recording using a digital trigger with a set number of pretrigger and posttrigger samples being recorded. I have added VIs to open, write to, and save a tdms file with this data. I want to be able to record when the trigger actually occurred, either as a separate channel or just as an event to mark when the trigger occurred in the file. I know that I can figure this out based on the pretrigger sample number, but this is something I will likely be changing as I record. I will only have one trigger per file. Anyone have suggestions on how I could record the trigger instance?
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi shelby,
I assume that you just want the timestamp of when the trigger occurred and then you'll write this value to file. If so, you can change the read position to the reference trigger, read one sample, and the record the timestamp of that sample to the end of your file. A picture is shown below as well as an edited version of the VI you were using. I didn't add any file I/O to the example as I assume you already have this part figured out. I hope that helps!

Calling report from form and after parameter form trigger

Hi, I've also posted to this to the reports forum but because it works from Reports Builder it may be a forms issue which is why I'm x-posting. Apologies.
I have a report that creates a file, desname is set in the after parameter form trigger (it uses one of the parameter values).
The problem is file is not created using the path and filename set in the trigger, the file is created in the bin folder with the name account_by_service_type.txt (account_by_service_type.rdf is the report definition).
If the desname is set in the before parameter form AND a field with the source=desname is added to the parameter form then the file will be created with the correct path and name however it won't have the relevant parameter incorporated into the file name obviously.
I've noticed in other reports that where the desname is being set in the after parameter form that I've had to pass the desname from the form but obviously I cannot do that here either.
Am I missing something obvious?
Regards
Sean

Mail Adapter to trigger a process

Hi,
We have a scenario to do quarterly updates whenever there is an email notification from service partners. Is it possile to trigger an File>XI>r/3 scenario by using the mail adapter whenever we receive an email...I have read about the sender mail adapter configuratins. But my main question is it possible to trigger an XI process based on an incoming mail ( address and content)..
-Teresa

This would typically be done through a scheduled task. Write your code to query for the departure date. If someone meets your criteria for an action to occur, you can either use the addProcessTaskInstance which has an adapter attached to it to send the email, or in your code, send the email.
The details that need to be considered though is where the departure date is stored. Is it on a process form, or is it on the user's OIM profile. Do you want to disable the user or revoke the object instance at this departure date? You could use the notification tab of these existing tasks if so.
