Using Building Blocks

Hi all,
I've installed all the steps of a building block, Sales Analysis, as well as completed the various data loads. I can see data in the info cubes but the queries themselves don't seem to work. Looking at the Credit Memo query, I see that it has static filters applied. The various selection options are showing my company data. Looking at the info cube, I do see data with these filter criteria so I'm at a loss as to why no data is returned. Any suggestions on how to trace the issue?
Also, I wanted to try changing a query to remove the static filters but when I try to edit it, I get an error message "Maintenance of object XXXX of type query is not yet available. Further note is "Manually start the maintenance transaction for objects of type Query". Where/how is that done.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Tom

Hi Tom,
It could be because of SAP standard sales analytic info cube delivered with K4 financial variant setting default and you are trying to load the data with other variant like V3 and others.
Check the setting in info cube >change mode> time dimension> click on financial variant> provider specific setting> allow all data from info object.
Check this setting and then see the data on report.
Best of luck.

What is the transaction code for running Building block & ECatts?

Hai guys,
I am building a new organisation structure using Building block Library. Can somebody tell me which transaction Code to use as well as from where I can download the variant files?
Thanks in advance,

maheshwaran. I

Hello Maheshwaran,
For the beifit of others looking for this question,
To create a building block : /smb/bbi -- > building block builder. --> create new Building blocks.
This has to be attached to a scenario and inturn to a solution.
To downlad the variant files : Go to Transaction SECATT --> Enter the eCatt configutation name --> click on display.
Now in the Edit Menu, you can see the option to download variant files.

What are the required building blocks to place part of an application into the cloud?

Hi there,
I have a Windows client/server business management/accounting application written in VBA/Access.
I am thinking of making small parts of the application available in the cloud, for example QUOTES.
First of all, I am not sure if this forum is the right place to ask these questions!
I would like users to be able to access their quotes via tabled or smart phone and be able to add or modify records.
I am interested to find out what building blocks are required to achieve this.
My initial thoughts are as follows:
The user exports their quotes from the application (A) in XML format
The user uploads the XML data into SQL server on my website (?)
The user logs into a mobile app (B) that is connected to the SQL server
The user adds/modifies records in app (B)
The user then downloads their records in XML format from SQL server from my website (?)
The XML data is read and updated in application (A)
In terms of the SQL server I was also wondering if each user should have their own database or whether all users should use the same table QUOTES for example?
Any hints or tips would be really appreciated and many thanks in advance...
Have a wonderful day...
Kind regards,
Michael

Hi Michael,
I’m afraid that it is not the correct forum for this issue, since this forum is to discuss the VS IDE issue.
I have a Windows client/server business management/accounting application written in VBA/Access.
Just to make this issue clearly, is it related to the Office development like this MSDN document?
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee814735(v=office.14).aspx
If it is related to the Office development, I suggest you post this issue to the
Office development forum like this thread “How
to move an Access App with VBA to the Cloud w/o re-coding? Amazon Web Services Virtual Machine ? Or What ?”.
If not, please feel free to let me know, I will help you find the correct forum for this issue.

How to determine the time building block type in hxc_time_building_blocks

Is there a way for me to determine what the time building block type is in hxc_time_building_blocks? I need to query the table and only select entries that are absence related (Vacation, Holiday, Sick Leave). I have the person's absence data from the table per_absence_attendances, I need a way to use the data from that table to get the time building block from hxc_time_building_blocks.

I could ask "supported by what?" but I assume you will
be the one supporting them. Here's a link to the

How to get the name of the selected building block in a building block content control?

Hello,
How can I obtain the name of the selected building block in a building block content control?
I want to use this together with an on exit-event to populate other content Controls depending on the name of the selected building block item.
Environment: Word 2010.
Thanks,
Peeter

Hi Peeter,
As far as I know the building block is the pre-built content, and the
BuildingBlock object represents a building block in a template. After add the building block to the document, it inserts the content to the document.
Building blocks are stored in the templates, therefore, to access the building blocks available for a document, we need to access an attached template.
So, I think, we can’t obtain selected building block in the document.
There are some links that may benefit you:

This works, using the ASAP 1 watermark that is in bold. ASAP 1 is a built-in building block, if i just rename this to ASAP, but save it in the same place with buildingblocks.dotx it wont work. What do i need to do to be able to use this with my custom building

Is anyone aware of a Building Block for Blackboard and iTunesU?

We are having some difficulties getting our authentication up and running using our Blackboard system as the transfer authority to iTunesU. We are trying this with the Perl script but may not be working at this right. I thought that there might be enough Blackboard users and programming gurus out there that perhaps someone is working on a Building Block to use with Blackboard and iTunesU.

We have a process to go from Desire2Learn to iTunesU. You should be able to do the same sort of thing with blackboard.
What we did, is we setup a javascript post request coming out of Desire2Learn. This post request contains the course name, username and a few other important bits of information. This request goes to one of our servers which processes the passed information, and generates the necessary itunes tokens and then startes the itunes u authentication process.
There is no reason why you couldn't do something similiar in blackboard. Either way, you are going to need a "middleman" server to intercept the request out of Blackboard, and then process it and iniatiate the iTunes U authentication process.

Autonumber building blocks

Using FM 9.0p230, I don't see anything in my autonumber building block scroll list. I've seen 'em before... did I unknowingly toggle them off? If so, how do I toggle them back on?
I've closed & reopened the application, and even gone to a new, blank document. No building blocks. What's up with that?

I am pretty sure this was fixed in 9.0p250, which you should be using. Really.
Until then you may look up the valid building blocks in the dos and enter them manually.

Best Practice Building Block Library not accessible in Firefox

Hello SAP Documentation Team,
I've just get aware of the <a href="http://help.sap.com/bp_bblibrary/500/BBlibrary_start.htm">Best Practice Building Block Library</a>. Unfortunately it can't be used with Firefox 1.5.0.4 because of a script error. I see the dropdown lists but when I select for example Country "Germany" nothing happens. In IE it works perfect.

Hope that this will change with later Best Practice releases.

Using large block sizes for index and table spaces

" You are not using large blocksizes for your index tablespaces. Oracle research proves that indexes will build flatter tree structures in larger blocksizes.
Is this a generic statement that I can use for all tables or indexes? I also have batch and online activity. My primary target is batch and it should not impact online. Not sure if both have common tables.
How to find the current block size used for tables and index? is there a v$parameter query?
What is an optimal block size value for batch?
How do I know when flatter tree str has been achieved using above changes? Is there a query to determine this?
What about tables, what is the success criterion for tables. can we use the same flat tree str criterion? Is there a query for this?

Is this a generic statement that I can use for all tables or indexes? This is a generic statement used by some consultants. Unfortunately, it is riddled with exceptions and other considerations.
One consultant in particular seems to have anecdotal evidence that using different block sizes for index (big) and data (small) can yield almost miraculous improvements. However, that can not be backed up due to NDA. Many of the rest of us can not duplicate the improvements, and indeed some find situations where that results in a degradation (esp with high insert/update rates from separated transactions).

1) stop using generic tools to analyze specific problems
2) define you problem in detail ()what are you really trying to accomplish - seems like performance tuning, but you never really state that)
3) define the OS and DB version - in detail. Give rev levels and patch levels.
If you are having a serious performance issue, I strongly recommend you look at some performance tuning specialists like "http://www.method-r.com/", "http://www.miracleas.dk/", "http://www.hotsos.com/", "http://www.pythian.com/", or even Oracle's Performance Tuning consultants. Definitely worth the price of admission.

Is there a "signal builder" block in labview

Hi all,
I am new to labview and i have the following question. I have build a vehicle model in simulink in which i have applied different types of road inputs. The inputs have been created with the signal builder block, because some of them are really customised potholes and bumps. I am trying to build the same model with labview simulation module. Is there a similar block in order to create my input and if not, do you have any idea how is this possible. I also tried to translate my model into labview but the build the translator was not able to translate the build signal blocks.
Thanks

Hi,
If you are using the Simulation Module, you can actually do the profile easily by combining the Lookup Table block with the Simulation Time. See the VI and picture attached.

Create a new Building Block

Is there a way to add a new building block that says:
<$chapalpha> Chapter Alpha
Currently, I'm using a set of templates that have <$chapnum> that automatically numbers chapters.
There is also a <$volnum> to automatically add volume numbers.
I would like to create the <$chapalpha> building block to automatically create letters (A, B, C, etc) to go with the <$chapnum> building block.
Would it work to use <$chapnum><$chapalpha> to create a 9A module number. This would be the AutoNumber Format for my CT ChapterTitle paragraph tag.
Will this work?
Dennis T.

Dennis,
Per your other thread on this... <$chapnum> and <$volnum> are system variables. You cannot create a system variable, but you don't have to in order to do what you want. Just use a regular alpha counter in combination with the <$chapnum>.
Use one para tag to set the Chapnum 9, 10, ... and a second to set the alpha number with a numbering string of C:<$chapnum><A+>.

Service Request Building Block

Hello everyone,
We are currently evaluating the use of the Service Request for a incident/'alarm" tracking scenario.
In this regard, does anyone know if there is a building block configuration guide for this? I was looking in the Best Practices but i was unable to find a specific one for Service Request. I would appreciate any help, or extra info.
Many thanks in advance,
Pedro

Hi Pedro,
You can go through this help document to know more about Service Ticket scenario in IC WebClient:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm70/helpdata/EN/46/23dafbc17b5872e10000000a11466f/frameset.htm
Also you can have a look into the CRM best practice document "E-Service: Service Request Management (C76)", which gives the process flow.
Hope this helps!

what do you mean by building block ?
SRM is heavily built using CRM code base - if that's what you mean. Most of the tables used in SRM are CRM tables.
