What is the use of soap action?

Hi experts,
what is the functionality of soap action in receiver soap adapter?
Thanks & Regards
E.Ravi Chandra Reddy

Hi Ravi,
This “SOAP action” tells the web service to perform a particular action. It will call the related method in the WSDL and perform that action and that WSDL may contain different functionalities/Methods and the action we will give in the channel will call the particular method
I have attched the screen of a WSDl containing different methods  (WSMethods)
Channel for more reference

  • Can we use same SOAP ACTION in different environments?

    Hi All,
    I have a doubt.
    Can we use same SOAP Action URL in different environments i.e suppose say Quality, Production and Pre production.And the Target URL is different in both environments.
    If yest what is the impact in different environment.

    Hi ,
    SOAP action is nothing but operation/method in webservice .
    Usually at end system end as a good practice/std they will maintain the same soap action name in all their environments,but it's always better to cross check url and soap action with end system folks before configuring in PI .
    We have faced an issue in production some time back ,at target system end they upgraded their server and used new wsdl which is almost similar to existing but one of the operation they duplicated by adding few addition fields but forgot to inform PI system.Though we are using new wsdl but pointed to old soap action .Interface got failed in PROD after investigation we come to know that we are using wrong soap action

    WHAT IS THE USE OF 'ALTER DATABASE CLOSE' ?
    I need explanation. Why should i shutdown?
    Dont give me this answer.
    ORA-16196: database has been previously opened and closed
    Cause: The instance has already opened and closed the database, which is allowed only once in its lifetime.
    Action: Shut down the instance.

    If you read the documentation you will see that there is no ALTER DATABASE CLOSE command.
    This is an undocumented Oracle command, which we are not supposed to use. Consequently we are not allowed to complain about the way that it works. Instead we're supposed to use SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE.

    adapters are components of the adapter engine, their main action is to connect different sysems with each other. therefore are different adapters:
    SAP-2-SAP Adapters: like IDoc and RFC

  • What is the use of jsp when compare with Struts

    what is the use of jsp when compare with Struts

    JSP Tag Libraries are great for reusable content formatting and ligic.
    For example, let's say you have this Shopping site. Each item you sell is stored in a database, and you get them out depending on Catagories, creating a List of ItemBeans. You allways want to display the items with a catagory header, then a <table> with the item number, the description and the price.
    Instead of creating a bunch of logic in the JSP that does this, you can pass it on to a Tag that might look like this in your JSP:
    <shopping:itemTable catagory="${selectedCatagory}" items="${itemsForCatagory}" />
    This would make the JSP easier to read and work with.
    The actual uses are incredible. Have you used the <jsp:useBean ...> tag? That is an example of a use of the Custom Tag Libraries.
    Furthermore, look into JSTL (JSP Standard Tag Libraries). They are a collection of tags (API by Sun, coding by Apache) used to do many of the standard actions you might want/need to do in JSPs, like a conditional tag (c:if only do something if the test is true), multiple-conditional tags (c:choos c:when c:otherwise) like an if [else if] else construct. Looping through an array or Collection (c:forEach), storeing values in scopes (c:set) formating numbers and dates (the fmt library), xml transformations (xml library), and lots of other things that you could replace scriptlet code with.

  • What is the use of usage in item category determination?

    Hi Gurus,
    What is the use of usage in item category determination? pls give examples.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Hi John,
    Assign Item Categories
    In this menu option, you can specify which item categories the system proposes during document processing for each sales document type and item category group. At the same time, you can specify additional item categories with which the system default can be overwritten. There is a maximum of three possible alternative item categories.
    If, for example, you enter a material with the item category group NORM in a standard order, the SAP System determines the allowed item category via the assignment of item categories to sales document types and item category groups.
    The system default and the allowed alternatives are always determined from the sales document type and one or two further criteria. The system default depends on the following criteria:
    sales document type
    item category group
    item category of the higher-level item
    item category usage
    Note
    The SAP System automatically copies the item category determined for a sales document item to the delivery.
    Recommendation
    Depending on the initial situation you can start the assignment differently:
    When you define a new sales document type, you should specify the proposed and the allowed item categories for the materials that are represented by the item category group.
    When you define a new item category, you should specify for which sales document types an item category is proposed or which item category is possible for the materials represented by the item category group.
    When you define a new item category group, you are to enhance the assignment of item categories to sales document types by this new item category group.
    Actions
    To define item category determination, proceed, for example, as follows:
    1. Choose the sales document type to which you want to assign item categories.
    2. Then choose one of the item category groups.
    3. Specify all the allowed item categories for the combination of sales document type and item category group.
    If you are dealing with a non-material item, you must specify the corresponding item usage.
    If it is a subitem, specify the item category of the higher-level item.
    If it is an item category that is to be proposed in the sales document, you must indicate the combination of item category, item category group and sales document type as a default value.
    4. If necessary, specify between one and a maximum of three item categories, with which the system default can be manually overwritten during document processing.
    Thanks & Regards

  • What is the use of flag in CallTransaction?

    what is the use of flag in CallTransaction?

    Sunil,
    Generally a flag is used to know whether a particular thing is validated or not.I mean
    if a = b
    c_flag = x.
    Then depending on whether the flag is set or not you can write what action needs to be taken.

    How does this code send any information to the program calling it? Is Sy-subrc global so that main program will know the reuslts?
    Code:

      DATA : l_anzpk LIKE likp-anzpk.
      SELECT SINGLE anzpk FROM likp

  • What is the use of additon in up to 1 rows in SELECT statement

    Hi All,
             What is the use of up to 1 rows in select statement.
    for example
    SELECT kostl
          FROM pa0001
          INTO y_lv_kostl UP TO 1 ROWS
          WHERE pernr EQ pernr
          AND endda GE sy-datum.
        ENDSELECT.
    I'm unable to get in wat situations we hav to add up to 1 rows
    please help me out...
    Thanks,
    santosh.

    Hi,
    Use "select up to 1 rows" only if you are sure that all the records returned will have the same value for the field(s) you are interested in. If not, you will be reading only the first record which matches the criteria, but may be the second or the third record has the value you are looking for.
    The System test result showed that the variant Single * takes less time than Up to 1 rows as there is an additional level for COUNT STOP KEY for SELECT ENDSELECT UP TO 1 ROWS.
    The 'SELECT .... UP TO 1 ROWS' statement is subtly different. The database selects all of the relevant records that are defined by the WHERE clause, applies any aggregate, ordering or grouping functions to them and then returns the first record of the result set.

  • What is the use of Alternative Calculation Type =2 and 4

    Dear Friends
    In pricing procedure in gross value, Net value for Item and Net value has Alternative calucation type is 2.
    What is the use of it?
    Without using it these value line are also fetching net value then what is the work of it. Please give me detail information with its effects in pricing condition tab page in sales document.
    Thanking You
    Arun

    Arun biswal,
    Correct Biswal. We have at varoius stages within Pricing procedure the "net value" which is calculated. Not only the alternative calculation type "2" is used if you notice carefully they are stored as subtotals at various levels.
    For Ex Gross Value  --> Subtotal =1 --> Calc type = 2
    similarly for Net value for Item --> Subtotal =2 --> Calc type = 2
    Net value 2 --> Subtotal =3 --> Calc type = 2
    See, these are used to calculate the net value at various levels in pricing. The calculation Type has got a set of routines that will facilitate us in pricing. SAP has provided certain clauclated formulas or routines to facilitate us during calculation within pricing . Here the "2" is used for calculation without tax and store it as subtotal and display it or use it for further calculations.
    We can use this "netvalue" amount for further calculations. It is used for clarity purpose when you issue a statement to customer. (like Confirmation order) at various levels like discount amt involved, Freight involved, Rebate amount invloved.....
    Even without this Calc type or using sub total u can proceed....
    Finally we have  TOTAL  --> Subtotal =A --> Calc type = 4
    In the above line we have Calc type as 4, which means when you use TAX this calc type is used .
    Routines are used to facilitate your process....

  • What is the use of Withholding tax identification number field?

    Hello SAP Experts,
    I posted this question earlier but had to close because of no replies from anybody. Posting it again to see if I am lucky to get some answer this time.
    Can someone tell what is the use of field Withholding Tax Identification Number? Does it help with the reporting? Where does it get populated on the report if given at vendor or master record or within the withholding tax customization for company code? What is the difference between creating it in the customization for withholding tax information for company code and vendor/customer master record?
    As per SAP:  Withholding tax identification number
    This is a number issued by the tax authorities per withholding tax type.
    This number must be specified in Customizing either:
    (a) As part of the withholding tax information defined for the company code, or
    (b) As part of the withholding tax information defined in the customer or vendor master record.

    Hi Pete,
    The only thing that I could check is the content used in US:
    See content of this field for US:
    LFA1-STCD1      Social security number
    LFA1-STCD2      Employer identification number
    LFBW-WT_WTSTCD  Withholding tax identification number for WT Type
    In order to populate it, please kindly check the following:
    The reason why you cannot fill in the field WT_WTSTCD in transaction
    Fk02 however you can do it in XK02 (Change vendor centrally) can be due
    to wrong customizing of the field status group.
    Kindly check the following:
    SPRO->
    Finantial accounting -> Accounts receivable and accounts payable ->
    Define screen layout per activity (vendors) -> Change Vendor(Accounting)
    Company code data -> W/holding tax data, w/h tax 2 ->
    FIELD Withholding tax code,w/h tax 2 will be probably just available to
    display. Please, change it to optional entry.
    I hope I could be of assistance.
    Kind Regards,
