Use-Case for Business Services (Service Without Party) in SAP XI

Hi,
I have a synchronous scenario where I am calling a web Service from SAP R/3 via SAP XI. I have designed the Integration Scenario in the Integration Repository, where I created an A2A role for the R/3 System and a B2B Role for the Web Service. For the Web Service Party in the Integration Directory I use a Business Service unterneath 'Service without Party' as the party for the Web Service is unknown.
I realized that I cannot assign the Business Service to the defined Web Service Role when I want to use the Integrationscenario-Configurator. This only works when I ceate a Party and create the Business Service underneath this Party.
I understand that this makes sense when I am having a B2B communication like in this case although I don't have a real external Party for the Web Service.
But I don't understand for which cases I would create a Business Service underneath the 'Service without Party' as internal Systems are known and can be set-up as Business Systems in the SLD.
Does anybody have such a case where I use an 'Internal' Business Service? And is there any way that I can use such a Business Service in the Business Integrationscenario-Configurator?
Thanks in advance.
Alex

Hi,
for creatting a communication channel you will have to have either the Business system, Business service.
For file systems which are generally just servers come under Business service. This is one of the place where you use Business service.

Use case for describing a web service

Dear all,
I have a fundamental question for describing a web service.
An analyst will first write (1) a use case for describing the web service and (2) wsdl and xsd files for describing the web service.
As a developer, I would say that artifact (2) is enough. As an analyst, I would still need to document the requirement in the format of use case specification. However, it is not clear for me what should be put in this use case specification and what is the added value of such a use case.
Have you any sample example of this kind of use case in order to describe a web service?
Thanks in advance.

Second, why would you think writing a use case for a Web Service would be any different than any other use case?Sorry for posting twice. I thought the first one failed due to a system error but I was wrong.
From millions of use case I can not find a "good" one.
I have in fact two conceptual questions:
1. I have not much to say about the flow of events. It is simply a request and a response. This is much simpler than a "normal" use case. Am I right?
2. However, I don't know where to put the description of business logic: 2.1 the data sets to be put in the request and response; 2.2 the business logic to construct the response from the request.
I would appreciate any hint or discussion.

I also think that same way. I do not know what is so apecial about BEA Aqualogic ESB and other market matured ESB products such as TIBCO & SONIC. The samples which BEA has given in their evaluation guide are very simplistic. BEA should do more to provide extensive knowledge/features about their Aqualogic line of products.

Using filters in business connectivity services

I am now completely confused by the BCS filter option. I added a Business Data List to a page and connected it to my external content type. Then I have configured 2 filters in SPD:
LocationID = User input (comparison)
AND
Address = wildcard
Default value for both is null and I checked to ignore the Filter if the value is null.
When I search for Address contains "City Name" it correctly returns items with that city in the address but when I search for Location ID equals 12345 it returns all of the items.
How can I fix this?
Thanks!

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you get all items when using filters in business connectivity services.
You need to make sure you define filter in external content type correctly.
If you refine the search results in the External Item picker, you can refer to:
How to: Define Filters for External Item Picker Controls
If you use Content Editor web part implement searching on the External List, you can refer to:
External List with BCS & Search Filters

Because GPS has nothing to do with WiFi, cellular signals, or data of any sort. GPS is implemented by signals sent by satellites that are received by GPS receivers. The receivers process the information from the GPS satellites and calculate your location. GPS never sends data anywhere; GPS functionality is receive only.
If you have WiFi or cellular data turned on this can improve the accuracy of GPS, because the GPS receiver can then use the known location of cell towers and WiFi networks to refine the GPS location. GPS by itself has an accuracy of 10 meters, or about 34 feet. Using the additional information from WiFi and cellular data this can be brought down to 3 meters (10 feet). This mode is called Augmented GPS, or A-GPS.

Problems with Use Cases for Process Integration

Hi there,
I'm reading the "Simple Use Cases for Process Integration" (http://service.sap.com/xi -> Media Library ->
Documentation) and try to setup the variants 1 up to 4. As per description I created the Technical and Business Systems in the SLD. Everything worked fine. But I can't find the created business systems in the Integration Directory When I click on Objects tab page -> Services without party and and choose Assign Business System, I can't see the desired business systems in the list. What am I doing wrong?
Cheers
Marc

hi Marc,
maybe the business system was already assigned?
1. check if the business system exists in the SLD
2. check if the business system exists in directory
3. refresh SLD cache (in directory menu)
4. try assigning once more

Use case for financial data

Hi All,
I've a question about potential use case for Oracle spatial. Data structures are following:
Clients
Account (have a dimension of balance, can be zero or above zero)
Client to account relationship
E.g.
Client C1 is a borrower to Account A1 (balance = 0)
Client C1 is a co borrower to Account A2 (balance > 0)
Client C2 is a co borrower to Account A1 (balance > 0)
Client C3 is a co borrower to Account A3 (balance > 0)
Currently, database is modeled as a set of three tables, e.g.
Client
ID
DATA
Account
ID
DATA
BALANCE
CLIENT_TO_ACCOUNT
CLIENT_ID
RELATIONSHIP (E.g borrower)
ACCOUNT_ID
Business limitations:
We are not interested in independent graphs for which all accounts have balance = 0 (let's call it inactive graph), however we might need occasionally query it
Users are interested in vertices/edges with account which have balance = 0, but linked (up to level N) to active account for analysis purposes
There is no well defined root (e.g. there can be 2 or more clients which are co borrowers to same account)
99% of queries will be against active graphs
Graphs are mutable, e.g. new relationships (edges) may be created/deleted during the day
Users are potentially interested in free navigation in whole independent graph, starting from root.
Root is determined by certain business rule
Need to process active graphs daily as bulk
Problems which I am trying to solve:
Limit the amount of data which may need to be processed - based on the analysis of current system, we only need 5% of data + some delta for 99% processing
Make sure performance does not degrade with time as we get more historical (processed data) - we can not deleted accounts with balance = 0 as potentially new relationship may arrive with new accounts with balance > 0
Current solution that I am thinking of :
Artificially partition the data universe as active and inactive graphs. All indexes would be local to two partitions.
E.g.
GROUP
GROUP_ID PK
ACTIVE_FLAG (partition key)
CLIENT
GROUP_ID (PARTITION BY FK TO GROUP)
ACCOUT
GROUP_ID (PARTITION BY FK TO GROUP)
CLIENT_TO_ACCOUNT
GROUP_ID (PARTITION BY FK TO GROUP)
The issues I am seeing right now:
1. Graphs(groups) may be potentially unlimited, so I will need a artificially limit the size using some dividing algorithms - leading to
2. Graphs(groups) may need to be joined or divided
3. Graphs(groups) will have to be activated/deactivated - e.g. moved to different partitions.
4. Data loading, activation/deactivation algorithms are not simple
So I am thinking about Oracle Spatial (Network) to model this problem.
Questions:
1) Can I model this problem using Oracle Spatial?
2) Will I gain any performance improvement?
3) Is there any explanation or white paper on how to do this for this particular type of problem?
4) Will the solution based on Oracle Spatial solve the problems outlined above?
5) Will my solution (without using Oracle spatial) work at all? Or there are some fundamental issues..
Thanks you!

Either add a LOV to the JobID attribute definition in the VO (if the JobID will be editable) or simply add the job description to the select statement (join to the job table) as a reference attribute

Best Solution for Busy WCF Service to Database

I have a WCF service that writes log records to a database for several applications. It logs sometimes 200K+ an hour. I am using entity framework currently to create the records and each is created independently (per call). That means a connection
is getting created for each one. I've found that because of the heavy amount of connections (this database is shared with another application), that I'm having max connection issues. Since this application is consistently writing to the database, I didn't
know if there was a better way of limiting its connections (maybe sharing them) as the inserts are done asynchronously so the requestor is not held up, and they don't have to be immediately inserted. Since immediately having them isn't a must have, I've also
considered writing the logs to a file then building a batch insert to occur every so often so that only one connection is open when that occurs. Just wondering what may be some suggestions on the best way to go about the creation and handling of the database
connections for a system like this? Thanks.

Hello acfalcon2001,
From my experience, in your case, it is not recommended to call SaveChange() for every record because as you also mentions, it would cause a the heavy amount of connections.
>>I've also considered writing the logs to a file then building a batch insert to occur every so often so that only one connection is open when that occurs
This is the way I would suggest you could do for your case, for using the batch insert in Entity Framework, you could set a static variable to count added the number of entities, if it reaches a limit number(you could set it to 100 or 1000 or others) and
then call the SaveChange() method(this method actually perform a batch insert operation even for one record). For this way, you could refer to the link below to check a detail usage and there is
detail test information:
http://stackoverflow.com/a/5942176
Or you could use another method:EntityFramework.BulkInsert
https://efbulkinsert.codeplex.com/
And from your description, it seems that your service would only perform an insert operation, if so, you could set:
yourContext.Configuration.AutoDetectChangesEnabled = false;
yourContext.Configuration.ValidateOnSaveEnabled = false;
This coudl improve performance of insertion.

Using Failover for DB Manager Service Objects

Michelin Tire Corporation
At Michelin, we are trying to implement a failover
service object using Oracle 7.3 on RS6000 platform (AIX 4.1.4).
We understand that we need to use HACMP (Clustering) and
Oracle's parallel server. This way the DB Service objects
on two different computer nodes can access the same database.
Has anyone used this configuration? If so, have you had any problems?
and how well does it work?
We would appreciate any information on this subject.
Thanks in advance,
Thomas Sams

Thanks in advance,
Thomas SamsAt CSI, we have planned to use HACMP with Forte' failover to provide a
high availability architecture for one of our customer.
There are a lot of stuff to consider, some related to hacmp
configuration, some to forte' mechanisms.
In particular we should use HACMP for managing RDBMS backup and Forte'
capabilities to deal with partitions/envs/nodemgrs failover. We have not
take into account Oracle's parallel server at the moment ( althought it
could be a good solution ) because we don't really need to access oracle
from 2 different nodes at the same time, but "just" to have a "realtime"
dbms backup in case of primary server fault.
The architecure we choosen is based on tre AIX server ( 1 application
server, 1 main dbms server, 1 backup server ( oracle failover, envs
failover).
We have started testing it using forte 2.0.h, but we realized that a
more complete functionality will be offered using 3.0 KEEP_ALIVE
features. So I could give you more feedback in the near future.
What type of solution have you in mind ?

ABAP List Faxing using BCS method ( Business communication service )

Experts,
I have a requirement where we are faxing the ABAP list as it gets generated .
I am using NEW-PRINT ON and NEW-PRINT OFF , to get the ABAP list in a spool request , and then get the spool contents using function module : 'RSPO_RETURN_SPOOLJOB'
I then use Class / methods provided by Business communication service , such as :
cl_cam_address_bcs=>create_fax_address ,to send this spool content to Fax gateway .
My fax goes , but the fax output list is in X_65_255 format, whereas i want the fax output to be in X_65_132 ..
My REPORT statement does have X_65_132 as line count / line size BUT somehow the Fax output does not take this list format .. ANY IDEA's ????
Would appreciate your reply .
Ashutosh

Naimesh,
I have passed page format X_65_132 in GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS , in export paramter ' Layout ' ... See code below :
write a list into spool
call function 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
    exporting
      line_count = sy-linct
      line_size = sy-linsz
      layout     = 'X_65_132'   <<< Page format
      mode       = 'BATCH'
      immediately = ' '
      list_text   = htext_spool
      list_name   = 'ZV46 FAX'
      no_dialog   = 'X'
    importing
      out_parameters         = print_parameters
      valid                  = valid
    exceptions
      archive_info_not_found = 1 .
BUT still the fax coming out of our fax machine is compressed because i believe the outgoing fax is using page format X_65_255 .
Any idea why ????
Would appreciate your reply .
Ashutosh

Service works "without party", "not with party"

I have a service that is sending in IDOCS to my R/3 system.
I have maintained the adapter specific identifiers in the ID for the IDOC adapter LS.
When the service is NOT tied to a party, the IDOC is created and sent correctly.
If I move this same service under a Party like Dell, I immediately get the "Unable to convert service to logical system". Nothing has changed! The adapter specific info is the same and the receiver is the same! The only difference is that it is now under a party!
I then tried applying the control record values from the payload. Whem I do this, the error changes to:
"Unable to convert sender XI party http://sap.com/xi/XI/XIParty to an IDoc party"
I have maintained the party identifier exactly as such, where DSS_ABAP_220 is the SAP system receiving:
Agency                 Scheme               XIParty
http://sap.com/xi      XiParty              Dell
DSS_ABAP_220           ALE#LI#LF            2100012869
see anything wrong?

I am still having this problem. Any idea as to why it is occurring?

Business-use-cases for SAP BusinessObjects BI in Sports

Query: Predictive Use Cases for Customer Acquisition during Launch Phase

Dear all,
May I ask you to help me with some Predictive Use Cases (essentially SAP InfiniteInsight) for a Telco Customer who is going to launch new 4G services.
Some important points to note are:
1) Being a new product launch, there is no historical data about customers.
2) Predictive use cases should help the customer acquire more customers (higher acquisition rates)
This means that the traditional churn, next best activity, product recommendations scenarios would not be a great fit because they would essentially be coming in the grow phase.
Additional info: The customers has other businesses in retails, mining, refinery.
Rg,
Ankit

Since you do have the CC currently so you should have CS6 included as part of his membership. The download previous version section discussed in Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html provides guidance on how to install through the Creative Cloud Desktop application.
If you don’t have high speed Internet access available on the computer you can install on then you can download the installation files from http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/cs6-product-downloads.html and use the steps in http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/convert-cs6-licensed-under-ccm.html to license the software.
You will need to be online to submit the periodic activation requests but it sounds like Internet access is available on the computer you are installing.
