New November 2013 Joining Text Tables to Replace Technical Names with Descriptions in the HANA View for Drilldown Search	The SAP HANA-based search of master data is one of several ways of searching master data that reside in SAP HANA. You can create a HANA view and configure it to explore the master data or to perform a drilldown search. If the HANA view contains attributes with technical keys (such as Country Keys or Region Codes), the drilldown search results display technical keys instead of text descriptions. To ensure that text descriptions display in the browser panes and result sets of the drilldown search, you must manually modify your generated SAP HANA views in SAP HANA Studio by adding text joins to the corresponding text tables.

I just wanted to know if SAP MDG 6.1 SP 3.0 is compatible with SAP ECC EHP6 7.0.

Also let me know the thread if any where i can see details pertaining to SAP MDG compatibility listed with various SAP ECC systems.

Has anyone implemented Dual Control for MDG-Supllier ?

We are implementing MDG 6.1 for Customers in co-deployment mode, meaning users that can create a CR can also access XD02 t-code;

Those users have XD02 in authorization object TCD.

How can we prevent them from using t-code XD02? We do not want them to bypass approval workflows.

Thanks

Questions

Answers

Q: Is it recommended to copy data model BP?

It is not recommended to create a copy of the data model BP.

The existing data model can be easily enhanced in various ways:

Adding new fields to an existing entity type.
Adding new tables as type 4 entity to an existing entity type.
Adding new type 1 entities to the data model.

top

Q: Is it recommended to copy existing user interfaces?

It is not recommended to copy existing user interfaces.

The existing user interfaces can be easily enhanced in various ways without the need of a copy or a modification of the pre-defined user interfaces. A copy might destroy the binding to improvements and/or corrections made by SAP.

Adding and/or removing fields from the pre-defined user interface can be done by customizing the user interface.
The user interface can be adapted dynamically using context based adaptations.
Enhancing the user interface with custom UIBBs can be done using the enhancement functionality of FPM.

top

Q: How can I start the user interface customizing configurator?

There are different ways to start the customizing configurator for user interfaces:

Favorite in the SAP Menu
1. Logon to your MDG Hub system.
2. Create a new entry in you SAP Menu Favorite List.
3. Choose Web Dynpro Application.
4. Define the Web Dynpro Application as CUSTOMIZE_COMPONENT.
5. Define any Description.
Configure the own user as FPM Configuration Expert
1. Logon to your MDG Hub system.
2. In the top-menu bar choose System > User Profile > Own Data.
3. Switch to tab Parameters.
4. Enter Parameter IDFPM_CONFIG_EXPERT and set its value to X.
5. Save the changes.

If you now start any user interface that is based upon FPM, you’ll notice two new buttons in the upper right area of the user interface. Both are usable to start the customizing configurator. The screenshot below uses the search for business partners as example.

[TODO: Screenshot]

Q: Why does the context based adaptation (CBA) not change the layout of the overview page (OVP)?

The layout of an OVP can only be changed by CBAs during the startup of the application. It is not possible to change the OVP (e.g. the sequence of UIBBs) using a CBA during UI round-trips. CBAs can only change the layout of single UIBBs for each round-trip.

top

Q: Why are recent changes applied to the user interface not visible for other users?

The actual UI that is being displayed to a user in the web browser is determined from various components of the UI configuration:

Personalization
Enhancements
Context Based Adaptations
Base Configuration

The general rule is that the personalization is the strongest component. This is best explained with an example:

The base configuration defines the overview page as a list of UIBBs. Since a user does not want to scroll, he or she creates a personalization of the page introducing a stacking of the UIBBs in tab-strips. A UI designer decides to create a context based adaptation that sets a single UIBB to “hidden and excluded from event loop”. All users not having a personalization will not see this UIBB anymore. The user with the personalization set is unaffected by this change. This is because the UIBBs that are hidden and excluded from event loop still belong to the OVP. They can be added to the OVP using personalization. Since the user has created a personalization that shows the UIBB (the personalization was created before the CBA), the UIBB is still visible. To exclude the UIBB you must either reset personalization or delete the UIBB in the CBA.

System administrators might use the ABAP Web Dynpro application WD_ANALYZE_CONFIG_USER to check and/or reset user personalization centrally.

top

Q: I want to hide / show a UIBB dynamically via CBA. Why doesn’t it work?

Most likely you tried to control its visibility by adapting the according attribute within an OVP component configuration, called “Hidden Element”. Or you might have decided to create a new CBA configuration that in comparison to its base configuration just adds the UIBB concerned to the page’s list of UIBBs. Both approaches will not lead to a dynamic visibility of the UIBBs.

From within the application configuration navigate to the component configuration of the relevant UIBB itself, not of the OVP. There you create a new CBA, maintain all relevant dimensions’s values as you wish and set the checkbox labelled “Hide UIBB” at the bottom of the “Add Adaption” popup.

Hi All,

I have a flex entity that i've built and when I see it on the UI, it's read only. Initially I thought I did the data model wrong or missed a step, but anyway I do this, the flex entity is still read-only.

I've seen one or two discussions that had this problem but the resolutions were unclear. I have also seen multiple notes among them 1772841, 1923861 which refers to the exact issue i have, only that those issues and fix relate to MDG-M.

Has anyone come across the same issue when extending the BP data model with a flex entity? Would the fix be the same?

Would like to know how to configure the number range for MDGF? As I understand that the number ranges are maintain in SNRO for object types. IF I like the number range there can I assign it based on CR type?

Hello,

In MDG-M 6.1, I am trying to enable the printing of a change request and tried the following configuration but without success.

In MDGIMG "Assign Print Forms for Single Processing", for the MM data model, I first tried:

UI Configuration: Z01_BS_MAT_OVP_03 (this is my deep copy which is working in production but with no printing enabled)

Entity Type: MATERIAL

Form: USMD_EDITION_CREQUEST (this is the form referenced in SAP's 6.1 configuration help guide)

When I try using form USMD_EDITION_CREQUEST as shown above, I get the following short dump:

"CALL_FUNCTION_CONFLICT_TYPE" "CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_TYPE"

"CL_MDG_BS_MAT_PDF=============CP" or "CL_MDG_BS_MAT_PDF=============CM001"

"PRINT"

I also see that there is another form available named MDG_BS_MAT_PDF_03. But when I try that form, the following error is displayed: "Cannot print the material (DATA TRANSFER TO PRINT FORM)"

I am hoping someone can tell me what I have missing to successfully use the "out of the box" print form.

Rob

Hi Experts,

Can you please guide me. I want to access USMD_CR_GENERAL_DATA from SE80 to edit it to correct a configuration error. I accessed it through floorplan manager before but the configuration error that does not allow me to access it from the change requests to correct the configuration error. Can you please assist. I tried to access it with package MDG_BS_BP_BOLUI. If I go to through the application configuration BS_OVP_SP_VL I can't see it there.

Is it stored somewhere else?

Thanks and best regards

The governance process in MDG is controlled by SAP's workflow engine. Some MDG domains have specific workflow templates built for them. Enhancing these workflow templates (adding and removing steps, etc) is a standard workflow development task. SAP also delivers a very powerful rule-based workflow template that can be used to control any MDG process (Change Request Type). This workflow template WS60800086 is built specifically for MDG to dynamically determine number, type and agents of each step. This document explains in simple visual steps how the MDG Rule-Based Workflow decision tables work and therefore helps in understanding the BRF+ application built for each Change Request Type.

Folks,

Has any one come across a requirement to have specification assignment screen in MDG-M? This is a standard screen that can be enabled in ECC and comes under additional data for a material master.

I looked in the data model, but didn't find anything relevant to specification assignment.

If your company has EH&S requirement to have the substance number maintained in the specification assignment screen/view for a material record, how have you handled it?

We are implementing MDG 6.1

Thanks in advance!
