Using pre-step callbacks to setup test conditions

I am trying to setup a pre-step callback to verify test conditions and correct them if they do not match the needs of the applicable test step. I was going to assign the test conditions in the pre-expression of each test step, but unfortunately I have found that the pre-expression executes AFTER the pre-step callback. Is there any way to get around this? How can I get around this? (i.e. to assign step specific variables before executing the pre-step callback).
Thanks,
Sean
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have done some hacking of preconditions, and its even easier than the example above. Remember that in TestStand expressions the comma (,) separates logical expressions. But the return value of the expression is always the return value of the last expression. So if you separate two logical expressions in the preconditions with a comma, only the return value of the second one gets used as the precondition.
For instance, if you always want the step to run, you could use:
locals.myVar = 5, True
Or if you already have preconditions:
locals.myVar = 5, AllOf(RunState.Sequence.Main["ID#:"].Result.Status == "Passed", RunState.Sequence.Main["ID#:"].Result.Status == "Passed")
Also, there was some discussion of what order a step executed its actions. You can find this information in the TestStand Reference Manual in chapter 3. There is a table that lists the exact order of operations, including when the pre-step engine callback is fired.

Condition Pre step in pricing- condition not determined

Hi,
Iam having an issue in my system. There is a condition type ZTFR (output tax condition) which is not determined in sales order. The access seq with this condition is MWST. There are two accesses in this mwst seq as follows
access seq=mwst
first access 06--departure country/dest country/material group--
standard requirement 8 is assigned to this access
2nd access 10-- departure country/dest country----
standard requirement 8 is assigned to this access
I have seen the standard req 8. The code for include LV61A008( req 8) consists of two parts--one pre step and the other normal exprt/import check...... the pre-step part checks that departure/destinaton country is not nil and both are not equal. the 2nd part checks the same for dept/dest country but also checks whether vat of customer is maintained or not and european tax indicator is set.
In my case only vat no is not maintained and all other conditions like dept ctry/dest ctry amd EU indicators are mainatined both for dept/dest country.
the issue is the condition ZTFR is not determined in sales order. Pls note that there is no VAt no maaintained in customer masterv since our customer does not have the same.
system says the follwowing on doing pricing analysis.
1) access 6 not made since req 8 not met. may be because vat no not maintained as wriiten in requirment 8
2) access 10 not made since condition record not found----
the system also gives message that "No condition record was found in the condition preliminary step for this condition using the document data"........... in this Iam not able to understand why the system has not given a message during pricing analysis that requirement not met. Rather the system said that no condition record found for preliminary step ??
what is meant by condition pre step ? and what is happening ? in the first access, system says req 8 not met whereas in 2nd access record not found but issue is same requiement 8 is assigned to acess 6 and access 10.

Hi,

Fault Management Framework - How to use test conditions

I am building a fault policy file based on an external service that generates custom SOAP faults. I want to query a value in these faults but I don't know how to construct the test condition.
I can find plenty of documented examples e.g.
<Conditions>
<faultName
xmlns:bpelx="http://schemas.oracle.com/bpel/extension"
name="bpelx:remoteFault”>
<condition>
*<test>$fault.code="3220"</test>*
<action ref="ora-retry"/>
</condition>
</faultName>
But where can I find the $fault object to know how to create the xpath expression?
This is my business fault logged in Enterprise Manager -
     <bpelFault>
     <faultType>1</faultType>
     <FaultManagementFrameworkService xmlns="http://yorkshirewater.com/faultmanagementframeworkservice/">
     <part name="fault">
          <ns0:FaultManagementFrameworkServiceFault xmlns:ns0="http://yorkshirewater.com/faultmanagementframeworkservice/">
          *<FaultCode>001</FaultCode>*
          <FaultCategory>ConnectionException</FaultCategory>
          <FaultDescription>Not Found</FaultDescription>
          <ServiceName>FaultManagementFrameworkService</ServiceName>
          <Operation>CreateConnectionError</Operation>
          <User><anonymous></User>
          </ns0:FaultManagementFrameworkServiceFault>
     </part>
     </FaultManagementFrameworkService>
     </bpelFault>
I want to access the FaultCode value but can only currently capture all errors e.g.
<Conditions>
<faultName xmlns:osb="http://yorkshirewater.com/faultmanagementframeworkservice/" name="osb:FaultManagementFrameworkService">
<condition>
<action ref="ora-human-intervention"/>
</condition>
</faultName>

The code 3220 is just a copy from some Oracle documentation of an example test case.
What I really want to do is get a value from my own business error e.g.
<bpelFault>
<faultType>1</faultType>
<FaultManagementFrameworkService xmlns="http://yorkshirewater.com/faultmanagementframeworkservice/">
<part name="fault">
<ns0:FaultManagementFrameworkServiceFault xmlns:ns0="http://yorkshirewater.com/faultmanagementframeworkservice/">
<FaultCode>001</FaultCode>
<FaultCategory>ConnectionException</FaultCategory>
<FaultDescription>Not Found</FaultDescription>
<ServiceName>FaultManagementFrameworkService</ServiceName>
<Operation>CreateConnectionError</Operation>
<User><anonymous></User>
</ns0:FaultManagementFrameworkServiceFault>
</part>
</FaultManagementFrameworkService>
</bpelFault>
If I use the following in my fault policy it will pick up all errors on the service (using Oracle Service Bus and a service call) -
<Conditions>
<faultName xmlns:osb="http://yorkshirewater.com/faultmanagementframeworkservice/" name="osb:FaultManagementFrameworkService">
<condition>
<action ref="ora-human-intervention"/>
</condition>
</faultName>
But I would actually like to drill down further and query the FaultCode value (001 in the above example) -
<Conditions>
<faultName xmlns:osb="http://yorkshirewater.com/faultmanagementframeworkservice/" name="osb:FaultManagementFrameworkService">
<condition>
<test>$fault.fault/osb:FaultManagementFrameworkServiceFault/osb:FaultCode="001"</test>
<action ref="ora-human-intervention"/>
</condition>
</faultName>
Am I trying to do something that's not possible? If so how do you apply test conditions for business errors?

Getting a Cell's name for using that name in a test condition

Hi.
Is there a formula to get the string corresponding to a cell's name?
I have a table where I want to use each header's column cell name and each header's row cell name in a test conditions, in such a way that when I drag the initial formula (throughout the rest of the table) it changes the test condition of that formula to reflect the name that is in the corresponding row header and column header of that cell.
Thanks,
Ricardo

RicPer wrote:
I knew I could have the test condition being something like
"=Acessórios Casa"
In this case, "Acessórios Casa" was the content of a cell, and my challenge was how to refer to the content of that cell in a way that I could use it inside the SUMIFS formula.
Now, the test condition is
"="&B1
Where cell B1 has the content I wanted to use as the test condition, and that now I was able to use because you reminded me of the concatenation operator.
The concatenation operator isn't necessary if you do not include a comparison operator in the second argument of SUMIF. An "=" operator is assumed if non is included. See example below.

Inter company billing use and steps?

Inter company billing use and steps?

INTERCOMPANY BILLING
Definition:
A company arranges direct delivery of the goods to the customer from the stocks of another company belonging to the same corporate group.
To put in simple terms, Company code A orders goods through its sales organization A from Plant B belonging to Company code B.
It is imperative that both Plants A & B should have the material. In other words, the material is created for both the Plants A & B + their respective storage locations.
Sales Organizations and Plants are uniquely assigned to Company codes. It is not possible to assign either a plant or a sales organization to more than one company code.
Sales organizations and plants assigned to each other need not belong to the same company code.
In other terms, a plant belonging to Company code A & assigned to Sales Organization A can also be assigned to Sales Organization B of Company Code B. This enables cross company sales.
PARTIES INVOLVED
1) End Customer 2) Ordering Company code 3) Supplying Company Code.
End customer:
Customer who orders goods from the ordering company code.
Ordering Company Code:
Which orders goods from Plant belonging to Supplying Company code through its sales organization and bills the end customer.
Supplying Company Code:
Supplies goods from its plant to the end customer specified by the ordering company code and bill the ordering company code.
CONFIGURATION SETTINGS
Assign Delivery Plant of the supplying company code to Sales Org + Distribution channel of the Ordering company code in the Enterprise Structure.
DEFINE ORDER TYPES FOR INTERCOMPNY BILLING:
Menu path: IMG/ SD/Billing/Intercompany Billing/Define Order Types for Intercompany billing
Assign Organizational units by Plant:
Menu Path: IMG/ SD/Billing/Intercompany Billing/Assign Organizational units by Plant.
Define Internal Customer Number By Sales Organization:
Menu Path: IMG/ SD / Billing/ Intercompany Billing/ Define Internal Customer Number By Sales Organization:
Creating / Showing Ordering Sales Organization as Internal Customer for Supplying Company code:
Transaction Code: XD01
The ordering sales organization is represented as Internal customer of Supplying company code.
We need to create customer master in Account Group Sold to Party and maintain minimum required financial & Sales Area data.
This internal customer number has to be assigned to the ordering sales organization. Hence, the system automatically picks up this Internal customer number whenever there is Intercompany billing.
PRICING:
We need to maintain two pricing procedures RVAA01 & ICAA01. Pricing procedure RVAA01 represents condition type PR00 & any other discounts or surcharges that are meant for end customer.
We assign Pricing procedure RVAA01 to combination of Sales area (Of Ordering company code) + Customer Pricing Procedure + Document Pricing Procedure of Sales document type.
This pricing Procedure (RVAA01) is determined both at Sales Order level & Billing processing for the end customer.
We maintain PR00 condition type to represent the ordering company codes price to the end customer.
Condition records for PR00 are maintained using organizational elements of Ordering company code, end customer & the Material.
Eg: Sales Org. of Ordering company code + End customer + Material.
We also need to maintain PI01 condition type to represent costs to Ordering company code (in other words revenue to supplying company code). It is statistical condition type & meant for information purpose only.
Condition records for PI01 are created with the following key combination:
Ordering sales Org + Supplying Plant + Material
Pricing Procedure ICAA01is determined at Intercompany billing processing level.
Pricing Procedure ICAA01 Pricing Procedure for Inter company billing is assigned to the combination of:
1) Sales Area (of supplying company code) + Document pricing Procedure of Billing document type IV + Customer Pricing Procedure of the Internal customer.
Pricing Procedure ICAA01 has condition type IV01 that represents revenues for Supplying company code in the intercompany billing.
PR00 condition type also appears in Intercompany billing document. It is for information purposes only and does not have bearing on the value of the document.
PI01 represented under pricing procedure RVAA01 is reference condition type for IV01 and the same is defined in the condition type IV01. Due to this these two condition types represent same value.
The condition type IV01 in intercompany billing document represents revenue to the Supplying Company. But its corresponding condition type PI01 in the billing document to the end customer is shown as a statistical item meant for information purposes.
Condition Type VPRS in the intercompany-billing document indicates cost to the supplying company code.
The use of two different condition types in Intercompany billing is necessary to ensure that data is transmitted correctly to the financial statement (Component CO-PA).
ILLUSTRATION:
STEP 1: Create Sales Order
Manually Enter the Delivery Plant of the Supplying Company Code:
OBSERVE CONDITIONS SCREEN FOR ITEM:
PR00 represents Price to the end customer (in other words, revenue for the ordering company).
PI01 represents cost to ordering company (in other words, revenue for the supplying company). It is represented as statistical item only.
DELIVERY:
Delivery is carried out from the supplying point & hence we can observe that it is done from shipping point assigned to the supplying point.
Subsequently, Picking & PGI are carried out.
BILLING TO END CUSTOMER:
T-Code: VF01
Create Intercompany Billing:
T-code: VF01
OBSERVE THE CONDITIONS SCREEN OF THE INTERNAL INVOICE:
IV01 Condition type represents revenue for the supplying company code.
VPRS condition type represents cost to the supplying company code.
PR00 in intercompany billing document displays amount billed to the end customer. It serves as just an information item and is inactive.
If the ordering company enters the incoming invoice manually, the delivering company can print out an invoice document with the help of output type RD00, which is then sent to the Payer.
If automatic invoice receipt has been agreed, we must use the SD output control functions to ensure that output type RD04 is found in internal billing. In R/3 system, output determination procedure V40000, which includes this output type, is assigned to Intercompany billing type IV.
The automatic posting to the vendor account is initiated when output type RD04 is processed. The system uses the EDI output type INVOIC in the FI variant.
To ensure that payables are posted in financial accounts of the ordering company, the delivery company must be created as a vendor.
Configure Intercompany Stock Transport Order
Material should exist in both the plants (Delivering & Ordering),
Internal customer should be assaigned to the ordering plant ( MM -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Setup stock transport order -> assign the internal customer to the ordering plant and assign the Sales area of the internal customer.
Assign its Sales area to the delivering plant
Assign the document type and Delivery type NB and NLCC
Assign the Supplying plant --> Receiving Plant --> NB
Take the delivering plant and assign the sales area.
Vendor master has to be created and assaign the supply source ( Delivering Plant).
Create a puchase order ME21N ---> Save
Delivery VL10 G ---> Calculation rule (appropriate) --> Assaign the purchase order number here and execute.
Select the Delivery creation line and do the back ground process.
Start the log display and see the delivery document number by the documents button
Goto VL02N --> do picking and PGI --> Then do the MIGO with

How to configure test conditions from a file?

We have a generic test setup that reads channels from a configuration file and sets up the cards appropriately. This is all fine and good. Next we want to specify the test conditions in the configuration file. The test conditions can be arbitrary, like "ch1 > 3.14 for more than 50 ms and any 2 of ch2, ch3, ch4 are > 123.45 for more than 25 ms." I REALLY don't want to invent yet another expression language. I thought about using MathScript but then I thought, why not use a VI? Can I reference a VI that captures all the test-specific conditions and call it programmatically on the RT PXI target? Is this even a good idea? Has anyone run into a similar problem?
Thanks.

It depends on how much string parsing you want to do and how flexable it needs to be.
Right off teh top of my head I would say you could do something like this:
for say "ch1 > 3.14 for more than 50 ms and any 2 of ch2, ch3, ch4 are > 123.45 for more than 25 ms." in the csv file you could have
ch1,>,3.14,50ms,ch2,>,123.45,25ms,ch2,>,123.45,25,ms,ch3,>,123.45,25ms,ch4,>,123.45,25ms
Then use Read Spreadsheet File.VI set to read a string.
That will output a string array with each element containing each value that is seperated by the commas.
Then you index the array elements and convert them to numbers as needed for input to your vi's
Use the fields elements containg the < or > to select cases fo comparing as needed

Error while using Branch step in Workflow

Hi All,
I am trying to create the below scenerio which uses Branch step but i am facing the error as below
"Branch has an Invalid connection" , "Unable to save Workflow"
I have a the design as below which are connected using connector
1. start
2. process
3. branch (two connectore one connecting "a"(process step) and other connecting "b"(stop step))
a) Process ---> Stop
b) Stop
Please let me know where i am going wrong.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Sharma.

Hi ,
Please check if you have selected steps to be processed if condition is true or false as per validation in the Branch .
For ex: In ur branch step property u have selected validation A u will get two more properties Validation A and Default,
U have to select either process or stop corresponding to Validation A or default depending upon u condition.
Please revert if you find any difficulty.

Test Conditions in BPEL Fault Policy

Per the ORacle 10.1.3.3 SOA Suite techical document, under the Fault Policy Framework section you can use an XPath expression in the <test> section of a fault policy. The example provided is +<test>$fault.code/code="WSDLReadingError"</test>+
Instead of using an equals sign, I am trying to figure out the syntax to use a "contains" or "starts-with" expression. I want to filter out a particular remoteFault using the "summary".
I have tried:
+<Conditions>+
+          <faultName xmlns:bpelx="http://schemas.oracle.com/bpel/extension" name="bpelx:remoteFault">+
+               <condition>+
+*<test>contains($fault.summary/summary,"exception on JaxRpc")</test>*+
+<action ref="ora-retry"/>+
+               </condition>+
+          </faultName>+
+     </Conditions>+
+     <Actions>...+
but this does not seem to work.
Anyone know what "tests" are possible, and\or have used a "contains" expression in their Fault Policy?
Thanks in advance,
Eric
Example of the fault that I am trying to "catch".
+<remoteFault xmlns="http://schemas.oracle.com/bpel/extension">+
+<part name="code">+
+<code>ESBMessageProcessingFailed</code>+
+</part><part name="summary"><summary>exception on JaxRpc invoke:+
start fault message:
+801 Error validating amount. Must be numerical and greater than 0 [000]+
+:end fault message</summary>+
+</part><part name="detail"><detail>null</detail>+
+</part></remoteFault>+

I did try to add namespace but it still didn't catch the fault.
I contacted Oracle support and they indicated that the syntax is: $fault.part/<xpath expression>
So for my purposes I needed to put: <test>$fault.summary/contains(summary, "xyz")</test>
HOWEVER this did not work. We recontacted Oracle and this time they admitted there is a bug that they will document. Only = or != can be used at this time.
Thanks for all who responded. I'm closing this question.
For reference, here's a list of what I tried:
The following did NOT catch my fault
<test>$fault.summary/contains(summary, "JaxRpc invoke")</test>
<test>$fault.summary/contains(summary, 'start fault message:')</test>
<test>$fault.code/contains(code, "ProcessingFail")</test>
<test>$fault.code/contains(code, "ESBMessageProcessingFailed")</test>
<test>$fault.code/contains(code/code, "ESBMessageProcessingFailed")</test>

Anyone aware of a step by step guide to setup lion server?

Anyone aware of a step by step guide to setup lion server? Looking to bin my SBS and movr to lion server but need an idiots guide to step by step setup.

Hi Joe,
Thanks for the info. Was also looking for a step by step guide on installtion of all the different modules, i.e. mail, profile manager, wiki for example. Maybe im just to use to windows server but the mac server just seems too simple. Maybe i am over complicating things.

During setup of new Apple TV I am not able to progress past the screen that asks if I want to share usage info with Apple. Using both wireless and hardwire setup I've answered no - then yes - but I cannot get the system to accept an answer. Anyone else?

Aside from not being able to progress past the question of sharing info with Apple - I've also noticed that the remote does not function when I presss the "select" button - only when I press the "menu" button can I acknowledge a question or a step in the setup proccess. Help!

Using pre-query with 2 characteristics in rows?

Hi @all,
I need your help regarding the following problem:
There are multiple conditions in one query, I'd like to do in a certain sequence.
Because these multiple conditions in BEx where processed as "AND", for example
companies must be part of the Top x and an key-figure of these have to be more than y.
As a result, we have the top x companies reduced by these companies that doesn't match the key-figure condition. So there were less than x companies.
That's why we decided to use pre-queries. Because the key-figure is a ratio of the company on a higher level that is "restricted" by a condition, we need two characteristics in rows. That seems to cause some strange results in the main query wherein not all companies where submitted.
Does anyone know some workaround or any approach for this problem? Please let me know every idea.
Or do you know another way to set a certain sequence of conditions?
Many thanks for your help.
Tobias

I've found a hint that this can't be done by using replacement path variables. Instead we used several pre-queries.

Steps for Refresh the Test Database with cold-backup

Hello everybody !
Can any body write me the steps to referesh the test db ( T1 -> already there) from the cold backup of production database ( P1 on another machine ) . all the datafiles are there available in the backup of production ..controlfile or redolog files are not available of production database. Both databases are 9.2.0.8 and are on different machines with same OS of AIX.
Thanks in advance !

Steps
1.) Before Shutting down P1 DB for cold back execute
alter database backup controlfile to trace;
2.) copy the created the trace file from udump to test server
3.) shutdown the P1DB and take cold backup containing all datafiles
4.) Copy dbf to test servers
5.) Edit trc file copied in step no 2
6.) As you are changing the name of db use option SET ( in place of REUSE)
7.)Also remove unwanted portion
8.) Change the name of trc file to <somthing>.sql
9.) Startup test db in nomount stage
10.) run the above created sql
11.) tHis will create controlfiles, place db in mount stage
12.) issue alter database open reset logs
13) add tempfiles to temp tbsp

Modify to-call sequence name in pre-step?

Hi, I have the following problem: I have customized the "Call Sequence" step type, creating a custom step type that calls a sequence dynamically. The name of the sequence to call is represented by a step variable, which is edited in an edit substep.
This works fine.
Now I wanted to modify that step variable in a pre-step substep and found out, that obviously the step module is already "preloaded" (the to-call sequence name is evaluated) before the pre-step is executed. This results in a runtime error, something like "sequence not found".
What can I do?
Best regards,
Martin

This
DECLARE
nSeq number;
BEGIN
select loc_seq.nextval
into nSeq
from dual;
loc_change(nSeq, :DATA_BLOCK.VARIABLE);
END;should do the job...
you can also put the fetching of the sequence into the database procedure. if you have DB Version 11g, you can reference the sequence simply by this:
nSeq := loc_seq.nextval;in prior 11g you have to fetch it using select into from dual.

Getting Sequence object from pre-step substep of Sequence Call based step type

How to obtain reference to Sequence object from within pre-step substep of Sequence Call based custom step type?
Given: new custom step type which based on NI Sequence Call step type. There is Pre-Step substep exist for this step type.
How to get reference to Sequence object representing Sequence which will run?
Although there is possible to examine SequenceAdapter and SequenceCallModule properties, it seems redundant since module (Sequence) is already loaded by TestStand ("NI TestStand Reference Manual. Table 3-4. Order of Actions that a Step Performs" Action #6, while my code is running as Action #13).
Thanks.
Misha

Could you explain what you want to do ?
Why do you want to get the sequence object within a pre-step substep ?
I give you some informations but I don't know if it's the better way to do what you want (because I don't know what you want to do with the sequence object).
If the substep uses the ActiveX adapter :
You can get the sequence object but you should save the object reference in a StationGlobals variable.
And you should release the object reference within your sequence when you don't need it any more.
If the substep uses another module adapter:
Get the step module, then the sequence name (module property).
Then get the sequence object by the sequence name from the sequence file.
Here are the paths to use for both methods :
Sequence Name property path : Step.Module.SeqName
Sequence Object path : RunState.SequenceFile.GetSequenceByName (seqname)
