DB Functions Supported in UNX

$
0
0

Are DB Functions supported in UNX universes? We are on BI4.1 SP3 and trying to use an Oracle DB function that will return a numeric field based on the user who is logged into Business Objects:

 

OWOD_DW.GET_BUDGET(@Variable('BOUSER'))

 

The GET_BUDGET is an Oracle DB function that expects the user id, checks the budget amount field in db table, and returns budget amount and sets it to Budget object in universe.

 

We have UNV universes that call Oracle DB functions, for example calculating number of working days. The processing is done on DB side and returns number of days and continue to work fine...

 

Thank you for your time.

My guess is this is tied to the financial KPIs attached between SAP and the outsource datacenter company. These probably cascade to their helpdesk personnel, causing this behavior.

 

It is a very tough problem to solve at scale.

Hi Terrance,

Personas roles are independent of PFCG or IDM authorization to control what level of access should be provided to each user in Personas. Currently there is no way to use PFCG or IDM with Personas 2.0.

Problem Converting xml to ABAP

$
0
0

Dear all,

 

We are uploading a PDF file and converting to XML (into string variable).

 

 

This XML has three elements:

 

     - Structure        (OK)

     - Internal Table (OK)

     - Variable          (Not OK)

 

When calling transformation to pass these data from XLM into respective elements, we have the structure and internal table filling very well, but i REALLY don't know why the variable I caught  the exception CX_ST_MATCH_ELEMENT.

 

I tried to find something, but nothing useful.

 

 

 

Below my code:

 

CALL TRANSFORMATION ztransf

       SOURCE XML lv_xml_data_string

       RESULT root    = s1

                       root1  = t1

                       root2  = v1.

 

lv_xml_data_string contains (I pasted only the final):

<NETWR_WAERS/></DATA></LISTA_ITENS></DADOS_COTACAO><V1>ggggggggggggg</V1>

 

The <V1>ggggggggggggg</V1> is important here, I just need to pass "ggggggggggggg" to a simple variable.

 

 

 

Now, my transformation code:

 

<?sap.transform simple?>

<tt:transform xmlns:tt="http://www.sap.com/transformation-templates">

   <tt:root name="ROOT" type="?"/>

   <tt:root name="ROOT1" type="?"/>

   <tt:root name="ROOT2" type="?"/>

 

   <tt:template>

     <DADOS_COTACAO tt:ref="ROOT">

       <BUKRS>

         <tt:value ref="BUKRS"/>

       </BUKRS>

       <LIFNR>

         <tt:value ref="LIFNR"/>

       </LIFNR>

       <NAME1>

         <tt:value ref="NAME1"/>

       </NAME1>

       <STRAS>

         <tt:value ref="STRAS"/>

       </STRAS>

       <LISTA_ITENS>

         <tt:loop name="data" ref=".ROOT1">

           <DATA xmlns:xfa="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/" xfa:dataNode="dataGroup">

             <EBELP>

               <tt:value ref="$data.ebelp"/>

             </EBELP>

             <EBELN>

               <tt:value ref="$data.ebeln"/>

             </EBELN>

             <MATNR>

               <tt:value ref="$data.matnr"/>

             </MATNR>

             <MAKTX>

               <tt:value ref="$data.maktx"/>

             </MAKTX>

             <LABST>

               <tt:value ref="$data.labst"/>

             </LABST>

             <LABST_MEINS>

               <tt:value ref="$data.labst_meins"/>

             </LABST_MEINS>

             <NETWR>

               <tt:value ref="$data.netwr"/>

             </NETWR>

             <NETWR_WAERS>

               <tt:value ref="$data.netwr_waers"/>

             </NETWR_WAERS>

           </DATA>

         </tt:loop>

       </LISTA_ITENS>

     </DADOS_COTACAO>

    

     <V1>                                             """""Here is the part that isn't working

       <tt:value ref="ROOT2"/>

     </V1>

   </tt:template>

 

</tt:transform>

 

Please, i really appreciate any help!

Your guess is my main suspect as well. There must have been some incentive to play cat & mouse with me and not pass the message on despite no reason not to do it and I spoke to the 1st level person (calling from a Canadian telephone number but located somewhere in India) twice on the phone and we both agreed that he cannot help me after I explained what a kernel function is.

 

But no... he always came back with "Customer Action" after having spoken to his senior colleagues with some new reason why I should use consulting and close the message on SMP. Eventually they resorted to SCN when there was no way I was going to open a connection to my system for them and the likelihood of them doing consulting for me was 0.

 

Of course we are speculating, but the puzzle pieces fit.

 

Perhaps someone from SAP can explain the issue at hand? I am Ok with my message being a case study to analyse the problem as I don't think it is an isolated case and nothing personal against the supporter - he simply was in way over his head and was apparently not allowed to pass it on.

Julius

Re: Auto refresh data in Dashboard using Excel or Xml as Datasource

With the below procedure I can able to acheive the Auto refresh using XML Data connection.

 

http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/f0efea0a-f515-2e10-2daa-cc5a4d23c1a8&overridelayout=truehttp://

 

Our actual source for XML is Access data base, We are generating the output as a XML file and with XML data connection our dashboards are refreshing dynamically.

 

But the actual problem is we are not getting the desired output format of XML file from access database to overwrite the contents of exisitng XML file. Each time we need to manaully adjust the format.

 

Two different formats, default format from dashboard & the other one Access dataabase generated format.

Any thoughts of how to make same format from access data base.

Re: how to avoid to drop item to itself for treeview?

Another point of interest:

The PowerBuilder Code Examples show how you can use the dragwithin event to highlight the target treeviewitem using SetDropHighlight().

 

This way you can visualize that a drop is allowed and where it will happen.

 

Example for dragwithin event:

 

if source = thisthenreturn

 

SetDropHighlight(handle)

Object Definition in the universe

Hi,

I have a requirement where i need to count the request ID's based on Created date and Completed date e.g. on 1/1/2013 10 request ID's were created and 12 were closed . Following table shows how i want the results to be shown

 

Created Date         || Count(Request ID's created)    ||     Count (Request ID's completed)

Jan 2013                               3                                                10

Feb 2013                             10                                                 5

-------

----

Aug 2014                             20                                                50

 


Everything is coming from the same table and The way i am doing in the report is creating a Query 1 with "Request Created date field and count of ID's for  "request ID's created " and similarly   Query 2 with Request completed Date and Count of ID's for "request ID's completed" and merge the request created date and request completed date on report level to bring both count measures in one table and  it works fine.


But i want to know if it is possible to create a measure objects in the universe such as "Count(request ID's created)" and "Count(request ID's completed)" so i can just bring it together in one query and Count(request ID's created)  gets calculated using the created date

and Count(request ID's completed) gets calculated using the completed date and e.g. if i bring created date along with two measure as shown in the table above , it shows the right results so i dont have to do merge dimension and 2 queries on the report level !!!

 

At the end of the day i am trying to replicate something as follows in the universe :

/*

With 

Created_count AS ( Select created_date,  Count(ID)  as "ID created count " from Table1 group by Created_date),                  --subquery 1

Completed count AS ( Select completed_date,Count(ID) as "ID completed count " from Table1 group by Completed_date),     --- subquery 2

 

Select created_date,ID created count, ID completed count from Table 1 where created date=completed date

*/

 

Let me know if something like this is possible !

 

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Sheikh

Re: Error While Doing GR "Check table YMSEG:"

YMSEG is a standard internal table used in import and export of function modules.

if you search SAP notes on YMSEG then you get about 230 hits.

 

Unfortunately the info given is by far not enough to tell you the reason for this error.

The number from the error explains just that it is one of the sales set Components

 

But you need to describe the process and what changes you eventually did compared to standard process. Only then we might be able to help you further.

Dears,

 

The Evaluation group fields in the allocation tab in the asset master data was not displayed in the layout, is there is any harm of displaying it in the production system after 3 years from Go-live.

i think it should not make any harm, i just want to confirm.

Hi Murali,

 

The reason for the not having the Bal Adj account as not OIM managed is because the Receivables and Payable accounts of the subledgers (Customer and Vendor) are never to be set as OIM managed since the sub ledgers are subjected to for open item managed already - these are reconciliation accounts. The balance adjustment accounts are created to record the exchange rate fluctuations hence they are not required to be open item managed - the accounting entries are purposely separated from their original reconciliation accounts of subledgers (customer/vendor).

It is probably nothing else than a safety measure to avoid that you send mails or faxes from a test environment to a real vendor. Contact your basis team.

Missing Parameter Values - I'm not using parameters linking to sub

$

I'm developing reports for use in an aspx environment using Visual Studio 2010 and CR 13.

 

I have a main report and a subreport. Each report is linked to the database with a view that is connected to a dataset.

When I place the subreport in the main report I edit the change links option and select identical fields from each report.

When I run the code with the subreport commented out I get what I expect on the page.

When I uncomment the subreport I get "Missing parameter values"

 

Here's the code that I uncomment for the subreport. I've already checked to ensure that there is data in the dataset.

 

    mySection = CaseAssignmentRpt.ReportDefinition.Sections("dsCaseOffender")
    mySubObj = mySection.ReportObjects("srCaseOffender")
    mySubRep = mySubObj.OpenSubreport(mySubObj.SubreportName)
    mySubRep.SetDataSource(dsCaseAoffender)

 

Do I need to do anything special to my dataset for the two fields to get linked?
