Understanding message flow in XI
/people/siva.maranani/blog/2005/05/25/understanding-message-flow-in-xi
what are the different technical systems are there in the landscape.
The technical system describes the physical view and the business system the logical view, respectively.
So in most cases you must define both but while a technical system can only link to one WEB AS, more than one business systems can link to the same technical system.
Tech System - Holds the tech details like installation no, db instance.
Technical Systems are of following types:
Technical systems are application systems that are installed in your system landscape. An example of an application system is a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) server. In the SLD, there are five types of technical systems:
1.)WEBas java,
2.)Standalone JAVA
3.)Third party
4.)Web as ABAP
1) Web AS Java
Web AS Java systems consist of one or more instances and each instance is installed on a separate host. An instance itself consists of cluster nodes that can communicate with each other.
2.)Standalone Java
Standalone Java technical systems are standalone Java applications that are installed in a computer system from an administration perspective. They can also be installed as an operating system service or as a daemon
Web AS java belongs to the NetWeaver Comes with both ABAP and Java, Standalone instread comes separate from the netWeaver.
3) Third party technical sytem
It can be any of the technical sytem. let us say if you want to send a file to R/3, here the file reside in your local system. for that you can define your local system as a third party technical system.
All those machines that comes under non sap, belongs to the third party.
4.) Web AS ABAP technical systems, ranging from any SAP system to an APO server or CRM server, are based on the same Basis Component (BC), which includes the ABAP interpreter, ABAP Dictionary, ABAP Workbench, and so on. A dedicated database, which stores most of the data of the BC and the application components, is associated with the system.

What is your file size and how many records are there in your file ? which idoc your using ?
The file size that your server can process depends on various different aspects like the server hardware sizing, total available memory form both Java and ABAP side, the kind of interfacing you are trying to achieve, if your interface needs a complex mapping etc. Although there is no correct picture on theoritical Max file size, it will depend on the specifics of your landscape.
I personally feel that, processing a 2 GB file is not a good idea as the message when converted to XML its size multiplies atleast 3.5 times to 7 times, which gets persisted at various stages of logging that the system does. You may want to consider other options like splitting the messages into smaller chunks, having no or minimal mapping and configuring the recordset per message property.
Personally in one of the implementations we have had to process a Max file size of 350MB which gets processed once a month and that too during non-peak working hours.

Selecting an IDOC depends on your requirement.
example: if it is purchase order then the idoc would be orders.orders05
if it is invoice,idoc would be invoic.invoic02.

Problem in changing the Business Area?

Hi,
I have a discoverer report where the eul folders are in one business are. Now I need to change the business area. By manage folder option I can do that.
Now my query is as the business are is changed for the folder what should I do for the workbook. Do I need to recreate it because the business area definitions are changed.
Could anyone please help....
Thanks

Hi,
You don't need to change the workbook at all. However, make sure the business area security is correct so that the workbook owner can still access the folder. The workbook references the folder and so the folder will be shown in the new business area when you inspect the workbook items.

Business area with SAP support in SAP OSS notes #

Dear all,
I would like to search OSS documentation which mention that SAP does not support business area anymore? anyone knows the exact OSS number for thatstatement ?
Because as far as I remember, SAP does not recommend business area. SAP advised customer to use PCA or new GL instead.
Thank you for your kind help.
Kind regards,

Check OSS Note 321190. Here is one section:
To meet the changing requirements, we will focus the further
functional developments in Financial Accounting on the profit
center entity. With General Ledger Accounting (new) in Release SAP
ERP 2004, you can create financial statements for profit centers.
See Note 756146 for more detailed information.
o The business area will be retained in the present form. The data
and functions will continue to be available. In the context of the
use of classic General Ledger Accounting, business area accounting
(Customizing OB65 for business area financial statements, SAPF181
and SAPF180) will continue to be supported to the known extent;
only a further development in the context of classic General Ledger
Accounting is not planned.

Dear Prakash,
In solution manager till EHP1 it is not possible to meet what is ur requirement but you can do the following as an alternative
Project
Master Data
Organization Structure
Business Scenario Std Selected from BPR e.g Service Desk
Business Process std
Business Process Step Std
Business Scenario Non Std Directly entered the name of scenario in Structure tab e.g any Zscenario
Business Process Non std ( you need to add here the process for zscenario)
Business Process Step Non Std ( you need to add here the process step for z*)
But if you very specific to go with 4 main nodes as you said then you need to modify the standard with ABAP Developement and there is no alternative.
Hope it clarifies.

I am not able to see the Business area in Discoverer desktop

Hi,
r
I am new to Discoverer
I have created a business area in EUL with user name and password as dewip/dewip in Discoverer administrator and now when I am logging in to Discoverer Desktop with the same user name and password to create workbook I am able to log in but I am not able to find the Business area in the Discoverer desktop.
After creating the business area do we need to do anything ( We don't even have save option to save also).
In Discoverer admin -> tools-> privilages I checked to see the privilages for this user ,but I could not see this user name(dewip) only.
Please help me ,its urgent.
Thanks,
gsr

Hi gsr
If you are working on Desktop and you change the default EUL but it doesn't stick this means that you don't have Admin rights over your machine.
In order to make these setting stick you need to have permission to update the system registry.
If you really cannot be given these rights then I suggest you ask you system admin to change the registry setting for you on your machine so that it reflects the correct EUL. You will find it here:
1. From the Start button, use Run | regedit
2. Open your registry to display HKEY_CURRENT_USER | Software | Oracle | Discoverer 10
3. Expand the folder called Database
4. Inside here you will see one set of settings that begin with AEUL and another with UEL. The format is like this:
AEUL_username_database and UEUL_username_database
5. You should see the name of the default EUL in the column called Data
6. Right-click on the setting you want to change and from the pop-up select Modify
7. Type the name of the EUL that Desktop should default to for that user in the database, making sure you type it in UPPERCASE
8. Click the OK button
9. Close the registry
When you now connect to Discoverer Desktop you should be in the correct EUL.
Note: this is only required if you don't have admin rights on your PC. If you do have admin rights then Discoverer will set this for itself.
By the way, if you or anyone reading this is unsure about manually editing your registry you should back it up first. Here are the steps:
To backup your registry, follow this workflow:
1. From your PC, click Start | Run
2. In the Run dialog box, type "regedit" and press the Enter key
3. The registry will now be displayed
4. From the registry menu bar, select Registry | Export Registry File
5. When the Export Registry File dialog box opens, give a name to the file you want the registry to be saved as
6. In Export Range, check "All" or "Selected Branch" - Selected Branch will export the current folder, so if you happen to have already navigated down tp the appropriate Discoverer Administrator folder you will be able to back it up
7. Click the Save button
8. Close the registry editor
To restore your registry, follow this workflow:
1. From your PC, click Start | Run
2. In the Run dialog box, type "regedit" and press the Enter key
3. The registry will now be displayed
4. From the registry menu bar, select Registry | Import Registry File
5. Navigate to the folder in which your registry is saved and locate the file
6. Click the Open button - the registry will be restored
7. Close the registry editor

Making the Business Area field as editable

Hi
We have business area field as compulsory field for document splitting. The same is picking up on the Business Area assignment in SD. However, the field for the same is seen as greyed out field in Sales Order at line item level. we would like to make the same field as editable. How can the same be done?
Regards
Rahul Sharma

Hi
The fields in a sales order can be made optional / mandatory by following this menu path - IMG - S&D-> Basic > Functions-> Log of incomplete Procedures => select the fields > from the tables and the system will check for them (OVA2/VUA2)
To make a filed entry enabled or grey (non-entry allowed):
User exits in the program MV45AFZZ-USEREXIT_FIELD_MODIFICATION
This user exit can be used to modify the attributes of the screen fields. To do this, the screen fields are allocated to so-called modification groups 1 - 4 and can be edited together during a modification in ABAP.
If a field has no field name, it cannot be allocated to a group. The usage of the field groups (modification group 1-4) is as follows:
Modification group 1: Automatic modification with transaction MFAW
Modification group 2: It contains LOO for step loop fields
Modification group 3: For modifications which depend on check tables or on other fixed information
Modification group 4: is not used
The FORM routine is called up for every field of a screen. If you require changes to be made, you must make them in this user exit. This FORM routine is called up by the module FELDAUSWAHL.
Actually suppressing fielding sales orders userwise is quite easy. We are doing it in our company. For this we use userexit FORM USEREXIT_FIELD_MODIFICATION in MV45AFZZ.
Below is the sample code
IF SCREEN-NAME = VBKD-ABSSC.
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT ZMV45AFZZ ID SCRFNAME FIELD SCREEN-NAME.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
SCREEN-INPUT = 1.
else.
SCREEN-INPUT = 0.
ENDIF.
endif.
You place the authority check object in authorization profile in the role of the users, who should have access to the field (in this case it is VBKD-ABSSC), and there assign the corresponding fields that are to be accessed via this userexit.
