LSO Follow-up error

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Whenever I am performing Follow-up action for a particular course in transaction LSO_PSV2, I am getting short dump and giving the message "Conversion Needed". After doing some debugging I came to know that TPARTDOCNO field in the table HRPAD25 is empty for ADATA of that particular course. How can I resolve this issue? Please help !!!

Any help will be appreciated .

Thanks in advance.

Hi Sai

Iam also working on LSO.

For follow up the course first we need to book the course.after this try the follow up for course in LSO_PSV2 ,if you get the same problem again go to Tcode -SU 53 and check whether you have the Authorization or not.

Please let me know whether it works or not

Hi Kumar,

Thanks for the response.

We have 4 persons booked for this course and I have SAP_ALL authorization.

After doing some debugging I came to know that TPARTDOCNO field in the table HRPAD25 is empty for ADATA of that particular course.

Could anybody please tell me when this database table HRPAD25 gets updated ?

HRPAD25 table gets updated when we have a successful enrollment for a ILT course. HRPAD614 table is for WBT courses.

Hello,

This problem has been resolved after executing the program "RHSETPADBOOK_LSO" (or the IMG activity "Execute Booking Relationships Harmonization"). After this we have created some new courses and when we perform follow-up action for the new courses, we are getting the same short dump "Conversion Needed".

Do I need to schedule a background job for the program "RHSETPADBOOK_LSO"?

Please Help!!!!

Hi Sai

It is really helpful to all working on LSO.

Thanks and Regards

First, you need to book the participants.

We had the same problem initially with Follow-Ups, until we ran the RHSETPADBOOK_LSO program, but even after that, we still had one Course that was giving Short Dumps with the "Conversion needed" message upon initiating Follow-Up. Other new Courses (created after running the program) seem to work fine.

Before I discovered that a new field in HRPAD25 was being created, I never looked at HRPAD25 to see if the TPARTDOCNO field was blank for any of the Booking relationships. I Canceled all of the Booking relationships to that Course, created one new Booking relationship, and the Follow-Up worked - no short dump.

I'm still concerned that something went wrong in the running of the RHSETPADBOOK_LSO program, since we were still getting short dumps on at least one Course. The text in the Help Doc for the program is worrisome:

"This program creates the field TPARTDOCNO in table HRPAD25 for all booking relationships because this field has been newly added to the table. This means that legacy data in table HRPAD25 in the new field TPARTDOCNO is initally empty. However, this initial value in field TPARTDOCNO is invalid."

If this program creates new fields on existing relationships, but leaves those fields blank, meaning they're left as invalid, what happens to all of the existing Courses in Planned or Firmly Booked state that have existing Bookings on them?

Hi Jason,

The main use of the report is as follows.

In LSO we have a new field called TPARTDOCNO which is available in

tables HRPAD25 and HRPAD614 but only for LSO 600 system not in LSO 300.

If data is moved form LSO 300 to LSO 600 the TPARTDOCNO would be empty

and data cannot be used since for every data in LSO 600 there should be

a TPARTDOCNO. So order to correct the data a report (execute booking

relationship harmonization : RHSETPADBOOK_LSO) is required to run in

order to convert the data.

Hope this is clear to you now.

Hi everybody,

need to bring this thread up.

Do you have any idea why I still got a dumb as described above even when I ran the program RHSETPADBOOK_LSO?

I found out that if you use TEM and LSO in parallel - which could happen sometimes when users have access rights to both transactions - you cannot use follow-up on a course when a learner was booked in psv1 and you want to follow up in lso_psv2. The result is a dumb which says that you need to run RHSETPADBOOK_LSO.

Back to the problem: I ran the program RHSETPADBOOK_LSO several times and still got the dumb. Does it mean that I need to cancel all the participants, create a new course and book the participants from new?

Many thanks.

Kind regards,

Stefan

I think I've just confirmed that you can't run RHSETPADBOOK_LSO twice and have it populate TPARTDOCNO fields that exist already but are still blank. When the program is run the first time during an upgrade to LSO600, it will create the new fields in the HRPAD25/614 tables AND populate them with data at the same time. If you subsequently have several rows in those tables where the TPARTDOCNO field is blank (we had a custom Booking program that didn't get updated for 600), you can run the RHSETPADBOOK_LSO program again, but those TPARTDOCNO fields remain blank.
