Comments in BPC EPM

[former_member2125]

Hi All,

While saving the comment from BPC EPM to BW, need to modify the comment. But unable to find any BADI / Customer Exit which gives the comments entered by the user.

For example ; User has entered Comment : 'Testing Scenario' . This comment is getting saved in the respective Table ( /1CPMB/**CMT). But before it is getting saved, I need to modify the record as 'Test Scenario Modified'.

I have tried with UJR_WRITE_BACK and UJ_CUSTOM_LOGIC. Both the BADIs are not giving me the comments entered by the user. Is there any other BADI or Customer Exit to serve this purpose ? Or is there any other way to do this ?

Thanks,

Rohith.

Hi Rohit,

It seems odd the scenario you're trying to implement, but I might suggest using Custom Logic badi implementation instead of write back.

If all you need is to "copy" the entry to a different set of dimension members, at the time custom logic is triggered the comment will be already saved in your "dummy" members. Just work on your badi to filter the comments and then add them with the new members.

The class CL_UJC_CMTMANAGER with the methods below will help you manipulate the comments:

GET_CMT

Instance Method

Public

BPC: Get Comment Entries

DEL_CMT	Instance Method	Public		BPC: Delete Comment Entries
UPDATE_CMT	Instance Method	Public		BPC: Update Comment Entries
ADD_CMT	Instance Method	Public		BPC: Add a Comment Entry

Just be careful with concurrent entries that could potentially make a mess your system. 

Cheers,

Lucas

"But before it is getting saved, I need to modify the record as 'Test Scenario Modified'." - what for? Business case, please...

Scenario is like, all the record entered in BPC is saved against the default Employee no : EMP500 .. In the BADI , i'm changing the employee number . so that Infocube is updating with the relevant employee number.

But in the table where comment is getting saved, there the dimension Employee is saved with the value EMP500. I need to change this employee number as well.

"i'm changing the employee number" - how? based on what logic?

[former_member2125]

Last generated employee number + 1 .

And you are adding members in the write back badi? Not sure it's a good idea (dimension processing is relatively slow and will interfere with other users activities)....

Hi,

I just want to know if we can catch the marked Comments (Testing) in any BADI or Customer-Exit.

Once it's saved, i saw the entry in the table ( /1CPMB/**CMT) with the record ID . Need to know at which point this comment is getting saved. So that i can modify the record as per my logic.

Thank you.

Sorry, but if you will be unable to effectively add members then you will not need to change the member in the comment

[former_member2125]

.. can't we capture the comment entered in any BADI or Customer Exit ?

Only changes of standard BPC code by enhancement....

Hi Rohin,

Why don't you just change the employee number in your EPMSAVECOMMENT formula?
