Use of documentation flow in data element!!!!

hi experts,
what is the use of documentation flow in data element.
if that field is selected then where will be changes reflected ?
thanks in advance,

Hi,
Changing Data Element documentation (F1 help text)
SAP allows you to modify data element documentation (F1 help text), this could be useful if you want to add/remove information from the F1 help text. E.g. If you are using the field to store info it was not intended for.
Step 1
Using transaction CMOD chose the following menu option
Menu Goto->TExt Enhancements_>data elements->list cust docu.
Enter the data element that you wish to change the documentation text for, then click the change icon(Pencil in 4.6c and tick in 4.6b). You will then be presented with the following screen, which allows you to create new versions of the data element documentation. Simply click on the Change button and enter a name within the customer name range.

SAPScript: includung a domain documentation in a data element documentation

Dear ABAPers,
I have a couple of (self-defined) DDIC data elements referring all to the same domain. How does the SAPScript INCLUDE-command need to look like in order to include the domains text in the data element text? (which object and which ID needs to be provided for domain documentation?).
Thanks in advance
Andreas

Hi Pushpraj,
for any kind of DDIC-object (table, structure, data element, domain...) you can maintain documentation, which is saved as SAPScript (there is a button "Documentation" or in the case of the domains you have to go via the menu "Goto -> documentation"). In that sort of SAPScript-based texts you can basiscally include any other SAPScript-Text with the INCLUDE-Command.
Example: with SAPScript Command "INCLUDE BELEGART" you can reuse SAPs standard help-text for field BKPF-BLART. But usually the SAPScript INCLUDE command looks like this:
INCLUDE <name_of_text> OBJECT <object> ID <ID>.
Thanks
Andreas

Some difficulties using the domain XBLNR_ALT or data element XBLNR_ALT....

Hi all,
We try to understand what is wrong with ODN in our FI domain.
When we want to consult the table BKPF using filter on field XBLNR_ALT it doesn't seem to work with single value but using range we found the corresponding data if we change the ODN 5700000099 to 5700000099000000.
Using transaction FB03 we have the correct value (5700000099).
I saw an OSS Note 746162 but this not for our SAP version (we have SAP_APPL 600). The index on table BKPF is not present in our system. Do you think that this could create our problem?
Quite strange....
Thanks!

URL link in data element documentation

Is it possible to create a url link within the documentation of a data element to allow the user to launch the web browser and navigate directly to a specified webpage?
Regards
Mark Briggs

Hello,
I am not sure but you can try this out. Go to se38 and documentation for a test program. Click on Goto and then Change editor. write a text that you want to give a link to. Make its paragraph format as SAPfind Reference. Select the text goto insert link. It will pop you up with a box. give the name of your program but how to link it is another mystery.
Try these function modules.
IWB_HTML_HELP_OBJECT_SHOW
IWB_HTML_HELP_EXTENDED_HELP
and see this program BCALV_GRID_F4_HELP may be of some help.

URL in data element documentation (F1 help)

Hi, is it possible to insert a URL within a data element documentation ? I know it is possible to link the F1 help functionality to go to a URL instead of the data element documentation, but what was asked is to display the regular documentation for the data element, but include a URL to a web site for further information. Any idea how to do this ?

"Further characteristics" in Data Element

Hi
I'm new to ABAP...
what is the functionality and use of "Further characteristics" in Data Element creation?
What is the functionality of "Pre-defined Type" and "Reference Type" in Data Type tab?
Please assist.

Hi,
check the tables CDHDR AND CDPOS...Moreover SCDO transaction is used for change pointers concept for idoc..in this transaction we can specify the ztable directly and then in BD52 we can give the change object name ,ztable and the fields ..when we give these entries,will be stored in BDCP table.

Mechanism for Info Object Data elements inherit source documentation?

Say I am in ECC. I go to SE11, give table name MARA and then doubleclick on the dataelement 'MATNR'. Then I click on documentation. I get a popup with Short text " Material Number" and Definition "Alphanumeric key uniquely identifying the material'.
I am interested in the latter information that is 'Definition' - & in general whatever documentation comes up for data element in ECC/CRM/SCM/SRM.
Now I log into SAP BI. I find that under characteristic 0Material, the data element is /BI0/oimaterial. When I double-click this datamaterial and press the documentation button, the system says 'No documentation'.
My Questions:
1. IS there a switch we could turn on in source [ECC/SRM/CRm/SRM] so that the data element in SAP BI inherits the original source field data element documentation.
{ I am not too convinced of the argument- that in BI we have info objects in ECC we have fields - since I am talking of data element level information- I would tend to think of this as an oversight of the designers [or de-prioritization] !!}.
2. Could we have an ABAP workaround? That is, in BI we identify the tables that house the mapping between the source and destination data elementsa and take out this information. Then we extract the dataelement documentation [by function DOCU_GET] and use the mapping info above to link SAP BI data element with source data element documentation.
WHY do I want to punish myself as above? My use case is, we take out SAP BI Table, field, metadata etc and create a model in a modeling tool and physical implementation in a 3rd party DW database as our own canonical, application-agnostic corporate datawarehouse. I would want the source data element documentation to flow to this last system as well as the modeling tool.

How to make use of adjacent data elements within the same buffer

Hi,
         Does anyone know how to make use of adjacent data elements within the same buffer? To make my question clearly, I would like to give you an example. In my application, I set "sample to read" as 10 which means at each loop 10 data samples will be taken into a buffer. Now, what I would like to do is to do some calculations on adjacent data samples in same buffer. I tried to use "shift register" for this, but it seemed to me that it only can deal with the calculation between data from adjacent loops. In other words, it skips 9 data elements and take the 10th one for the calculation.
         Here I also attach my VI showing what I did.
    Thank you very much in advance,
                        Suksun

Hi Suksun,
      I hope you'll forgive me for distilling your code - mainly to understand it better. I tried to duplicate your logic exactly - which required reversing the "derivatives"-array before concatination with the current samples array. As in your code, the last velocity is being paired with the first position. If first velocity is really supposed to be paired with first position, just remove the "Reverse 1D Array" node.
cheers

Problem when using a different data element in Employee Tab Contact Info

Hello,
My version: Nakisa OrgChart 4.1
I created a data element whose fields I wanted to show in the Position details (in the Employee Profile panel, which use the default Static layout 'Employee Tabs'). I am trying to display some contact info, and I used the Employee Tab Contact Info section within Employee Tabs to do it. Somehow the fields captions do not show once I do that (see picture attached). I tried using the 'Employee Tab Data Sheet' section to display the same information, and it works fine.
Any thoughts what could cause this behavior? All the fields captions have values that were configured in the data element.
Thanks
M.E.

Sorry, just re-reading from the start, you are saying this is purely dependent on the type of section you select. Right?
With "Employee Tab Contact Info", you say it doesn't show; Have you tried using Field/Value Section (Multiple)?
Also, when it doesn't work, what <presentation> is referenced in your custom section within "OrgUnitPositionEmployeeDetail.xml" (in \.delta\AppResources\detailconfiguration)?

A problem when using a data element in BAPI

Hi there,
I build a function module, and want to use it as a BAPI. But when I add the function module as a method of a BAPI object, it gives me the following error: data type xxxxx cannot be used for methods.
I guess the problem happens because of the type of data element I used for the input parameter of the function module. Thus I tried many other data elements, but I keep getting the same error. I am really out of the game. Could anyone tell me which data element I should use for the input parameter of the function module? The function module has only one input parameter, which should be a string with length less than 100.
Thank you so much!!
Sincerely,
Bing

The function module has only one input parameter, which should be a string with length less than 256. (I tried many predefined data element like RPLM_STRING, but when I tried to add the function module as a method of BAPI, the SAP always gave me the error: data type xxxxx cannot be used for methods)
It only has one output parameter: RETURN (associated type: BAPIRETURN)
I am really not familiar with ABAP program, let alone BAPIs. Any suggestions would be very helpful to me. I sincerely appreciate your help.

Getting error while using the data element in ztable

though i specified the length as 20 in dataelement when i am entering the dataelement i am getting this error
while i used help i got the following information
Number of positions < minimum number (1) for data type CHAR
Message no. DO253
Diagnosis
A minimum length is required for the specified data type.
This minimum length is not reached by the specified number of positions.
Procedure
Increase the number of positions or select a more appropriate data type with the possible entries help F4.

This is strange, you shouldn't even be able to activate the dataelement type char with a length of 0. Revisit your data element and make sure that the length shows to be greater than 0 and reactivate your data element to make sure the newest version is active. In case you are referencing a domain in your data element do the same with the domain after validating that everything is correct (you can also use the check function). Then go back to your table and reenter the data element before activating your table.
Hope that helps,
Michael

Error while using '*'in the NTE (EDI 850) Segment where '*' is also used as Data Element

Hi All,
I am facing below mentioned error while using '*'in the NTE (EDI 850) Segment where '*' is also used as Data Element
Error: 1 (Field level error)
SegmentID: NTE
Position in TS: 70
Data Element ID: NTE02
Position in Segment: 2
Data Value:
3: Too many data elements
For Eg: NTE*GEN*My Text *goes here
Here, NTE02 should be My Text *goes here. So, how can I use "*" here without changing anything in the EDI message?
Can it be done?
Thanks.

Sorry, no.
X12 does not support an escape character so whatever is used for delimiters become reserved characters.
If you want to allow '*' in the data, you will have to chooser a different Element delimiter. The receiver should read the from this from the ISA Segment so it's supposed to be dynamic but that's not always the case in practice.

Getting error while updating data element using Xquery Automator

Hi,
I am getting following error while i am trying to update a data element in my task.
<Nov 28, 2011 5:02:40 PM IST> <Error> <oms> <BEA-000000> <automation.AutomationDispatcher: Failed to execute

the Xquery that i am using is pretty simple:

<ord:Add path="/CLFY_ID">{data($Id_Number)}</ord:Add>
</ord:OrderDataUpdate>
Can anyone please tell me the reason due to which this error is coming.
Thanking in advance
Ashish Garg

Hello.
Ok I need you to tell me a little bit more about your automator, did you config an Xquery Automator with Event Type: Internal?
You should declare namespace automator = "java:oracle.communications.ordermanagement.automation.plugin.ScriptReceiverContextInvocation";
instead of
declare namespace automator = "java:oracle.communications.ordermanagement.automation.plugin.ScriptSenderContextInvocation";
And let my ask you, what are you trying to do with the next lines:
let $CLFY_XML := //CLFY_XML
let $Id_Number :=//Id_Number
Becouse I think you are trying to acces the data on the task, If that is the reason, you should better use something like:
let $order := ..//oms:GetOrder.Response
let $orderId := $order/oms:_root/oms:orderHeader/oms:orderId
with the above lines you are accesing the data that has been added to the task and the just acces the node that you nedd, for example here Im accesig the node
orderId under OrderHeader
Another thing is that if you want to update node which already exists in the task data, then you have to use something like:
<OrderDataUpdate xmlns="http://www.metasolv.com/OMS/OrderDataUpdate/2002/10/25">
<Update path="/orderHeader/orderId">{$orderId}</Update>
</OrderDataUpdate>
But if you have to add a new path you should have something like this:
<OrderDataUpdate xmlns="http://www.metasolv.com/OMS/OrderDataUpdate/2002/10/25">
 <Add path="/OrderHeader">
 <Transaction>
 <Name>{$orderId/text())}</Name>
 <ComponentKey>{$controlData/text()}</ComponentKey>
 </Transaction>
 </Add>
</OrderDataUpdate>
For the above transaction you should have in the dictionary the structure, OrderHeader in the root, and inside this the structure another node with the respective names
<Transaction>
 <Name>{$orderId/text())}</Name>
 <ComponentKey>{$controlData/text()}</ComponentKey>
 </Transaction>
Another thing is that you should have all this structures in the Task Data of this Task.
Hope this help
Lucas.
