Random Mind #2

Some random trivia about Younha's song "Broke Up Today":

  • The music video starring Ji Chang Wook & Han Bo Bae. The handsome Ji Chang Wook was adorable mangnae (youngest brother) Song Mi Poong in drama The Sons of Sol's Pharmacy House.
  • Younha was featured in Kim Dong Wan's single Promise. It was released at the time Dong Wan was going to the mandatory military service in 2008.
  • A lot of KPop lovers consider Younha is very talented but receives not enough attention due to massive expansion of girl and boy band.
  • The song and the music video, I find them quite interesting. But still, not enough to conquer SNSD and 2PM on the chart *grin*
  • The hair.. it was hair extensions right? Ah.. what's with these girl singers and hair extensions... It didn't look natural.
  • Anyway, please enjoy her gifted voice like I do and forgive me for all the nonsense.

Call .Net Application from SAP BAPI

Although other way around is very common, I never think of possibility to establish connection from SAP to .Net. This article describe the possibility. In that example, SAP BAPI call .Net program to send e-mail through Gmail POP3. Nice.

SAP BI Planning Sequence

Let's learn a bit about the result of button Start Modeller in transaction RSPLAN. Any of you wonder what is that thing - when an explorer burst out contains 5 tabs titled Modeller at the top of the window? Well I am. Why would we have to do it web based anyway. I'll let that to be a mystery for now.

Simply said, this window allow us to perform some 'query command' to an InfoProvider. Like we all IT freaks acknowledge, the famous "SELECT attribute_fields, SUM value_fields GROUP BY attribute_fields FROM table WHERE condition"

Those 5 tabs represent each piece of the famous statement above. InfoProvider represents the table. Aggregation level represents the SELECT and GROUP BY attribute_fields at the same time. Filter represents the WHERE condition. Planning function represents the type of command we need to do, whether it is delete or update. Other than that, a lot of actions already prepared by SAP. Moreover, we can add new type of actions when all that prepared don't fullfil our need. Planning sequence is like a wrapper that consist sequence of the planning functions needed to play together for a certain goal.

Up until here, I hope that helps to mend your confuse mind. And not get more confuse. Next...

This is some diagram to show the relationship between each tab.



So to get us started, first we need to define an aggregation level.
Following it, a filter and a planning function based on the aggregation level. Finally, put the planning function into a planning sequence.

Now the fun part, testing. First make sure the InfoProvider is in the Plan Mode. Go to RSA1 right click the InfoProvider. Change Real-Time Load Behaviour and tick Real-Time Data Target Can be Planned. After we do this, we need to close the browser and re-open it. In the extreme condition where SAP seems to be ignorant little thing, I even have to close the browser, close the GUI and re-login.

A planning sequence can be executed directly. You can see execute button on top of Planning Sequence tab. Don't be scared to click it because it won't change the actual data. Not until you click "Save Plan Data" and set the InfoProvider into Load Mode. The newly updated data will appear as a new request in Manage section of the InfoProvider.

The useful part, planning sequence can be called through Process Chain. You can find it under Process Type - Other BW Process - Execute Planning Sequence.

Phew, I'm done.

Random Mind #1

I thought if I could keep these random thoughts in blog it would be better. Twitter or Facebook are just too expensive for an office prisoner like me. So here I go:

Was reading dramabeans about Que Sera-Sera and realize how un-finish the drama is from the viewers' point of view. Thinking about this guy who is serving his military duty and will come back in 9 months. So Eric, just do Que Sera-Sera season 2 when you come back please!

Nggak Penting...But Still

I have times when I feel like... Soul-less. That's the time when I think I haven't watch enough heart-warming drama. Heart-warming dramas recharge my soul. When one of those kind of drama ends, I mourned and prayed, Allah... please let me watch another good one after this.

KBS Hot Blood just ended yesterday night. Leaving me a warm feel of family love, sincere friendship, peaceful and brave heart and less-than-it-should-be romantic scenes. It's rating were never high. But my taste sometimes don't go along the ratings. Honestly it's the presence of Park Hae Jin of FO that drags me into this drama at first. But when I watch along next episodes, they do worth watching indeed. Like I said, this drama makes me soulful. That little things I should embrace while walking the rough weekdays and never-enough-rest weekends, that life is not all about money. That the most precious things in your life are tend to be forgotten and only occurs to your regret when it's gone. That friends are invaluable and enemies are lying within yourself. Greed, fear, grudge. Hot Blood is over. Next!

2010 Is Here

모두들 새해 복 많이 받으세요!

Happy New Year Everyone!

For me 2009 has been a laid back year. I need to pay it in 2010. After all, this is my second year serving in national oil and gas company and learning SAP. I put up my saving in a good way, move out from being "anak kos" to "ibu kontrakan". 2009 is the first year I was fascinated by Korean entertainment the whole year. Came to KL for a business trip. I lost 3 kg, get to know SAP BI closer, finally get a courage I need to have long time ago. I bought an oven to encourage this mind, hands and fingers to have fun besides laptop. I learn to reach office by train and try to reach home before dawn.

Anyway, let's talk about NOTHING in Korean entertainment, hihi. The best kdrama in 2009, my sister and I agree, is The Sons of Sol's Pharmacy House. The most entertaining variety show is Variety Jeongshin's 2 Days 1 Night. The impressive music talk show is Yu Hui Yeol's Sketchbook. 2009 is full of girls and boys band with catchy rhythm and beautiful faces, my picks are 2NE1 and SHINee. I enjoy Clazziquai's Tell Yourself, IRIS' OST by Baek Ji Young and Shin Seung Hoon, Kim Tae Woo's Love Rain. Lee Eun Mi's I Have a Lover, Lee Min Woo's IMU and Love is a Beautiful Word, Shin Hye Sung's You Are Beautiful. I enjoy Invincible Youth and Family Outing too (thanks to Iky ^_^). I learn a bit about Hangul and Korean vocabs.

In 2010 this blog will be full of Korean tidbits, SAP and .... we'll see.

행복하세요~~
Be Happy...
