BOM is not exploded when called via BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 - abap

I'm attempting to create a sales order with a position that has a configurable material. Via the BAPI function bapi_salesorder_createfromdat2 I can create the order and supply it with the values for the characteristics.
ABAP Code: http://pastebin.com/hM61c3Fq
When creating an order via VA01 and entering the configuration the order receives new positions from a bill of materials. However when created via the BAPI function the explosion doesn't happen unless I view the order via va02 and look at the configuration.
The customizing via transaction vov7 shows the position type to configure and explode. Is it possible to have bapi_salesorder_createfromdat2 also do this explosion to position lines or is there another function avaliable that can provide this functionality?

It would seem, despite the overwheling amount of documentation that says it should work, I haven't been able to find a solution via the BAPI function. However, we eventually stumbled upon an SAP note 562124. After creating the function with bapi_salesorder_createfromdat2 BAPI function BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE can be called. Afterwards the structure is exploded.

Check original language of repository objects at creation?

In our company, repository objects must be created with original language EN.
Is there a way to check the logon language in case of creating a new object in the ABAP repository?
Desired behaviour:
SE80 - Create program/class/data element/table/....
==> user exit/badi checks the logon language. When it is not 'EN', the creation will be refused.
regards,
Umar Abdullah
I know there is a exit for this but I haven't remember exact name. You can use general purpose for finding exit. Go to SE24 and open CL_EXITHANDLER class, find GET_INSTANCE method and add break point. Then start creating item, it will pause on debugger multiple times, try to find suitable one.
As #mkysoft suggested, you may implement a check in the BAdI CTS_REQUEST_CHECK, method CHECK_BEFORE_ADD_OBJECTS, which is invoked when the object is about to be attached to a transport request. Raise the exception CANCEL to make the attachment fail (and so the object is not created too).
EDIT: sorry, ignore my answer, "this method is NOT released for Customer usage" as said in note 2150125 - Method CHECK_BEFORE_ADD_OBJECTS not triggered
DISCLAIMER: THE METHOD DESCRIBED HERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOT RECOMMENDED.
As correctly pointed out by the other members there is no standard and customer-exposed method to achieve your requirement, but if you absolutely must enable this check during creation you can use the below method. As well as the previously offered to you, it also involves modification of SAP standard.
There is a system BAdi CTS_TADIR_SUBSCREEN that is located inside enhancement point CTS_ES_TADIR_POPUP. They are SAP internal and not released for customer usage, so do this at your own risk.
Implementation procedure:
Step 0. First thing you need to change is a SAP internal usage flag, for which you need Object Access key which can be obtained from SAP or from SAP partner that made the implementation in your org. In virgin state this BAdi throws the error if you try to implement it
So hereinafter we assume that you already ticked off this checkbox in BAdi settings
Step 1.
In order to implement the BAdi one need to implement enhancement spot prior to that. This is the most complicated part, because despite we disabled internality flag the SAP-namespaced enhancements must be stored only in SAP-namespaced objects. By SAP namespace I mean non-Z, non-Y and non-T (Test). This means to implement this enhancement, besides modifying the enhancement definition, one need to create, for example, CTS_ES_TADIR named enh.impl., and save it to non-Z package, which you also need to create. Your enhancement implementations selector should look somehow like this
On the above screen only the second will work, all the rest Z will not.
Every non-Z object need Object Access Key, remember? Too bad. But just to show the proof-of-concept, I will proceed.
Step 2. After you created the enh. implementation in SAP-namespace it will propose you to create the BAdi implementation. The same principle applies here: only SAP-namespaced container for SAP-namespaced objects, hence CTS_TADIR_SUBSCREEN should have implementing class for example CL_TADIR_SUBSCREEN. During the creation of enhancement you will see many warnings
but finally you should have something like this, where all system-named objects are created and the enhancement/BAdi is activated.
Step 3. In order to get the BAdi working we need to enable this subscreen processing
during the playing with enhancement I found out that BAdi class is not being triggered standalone, without screen events not enhanced, so to make it work you need to touch a screen enhancement for screen 100
If you do not wanna modify screen elements logic, just put the dummy enhancement in SHOW_TADIR dialog module in the end of the include LSTRDO18
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
MODULE SHOW_TADIR. "<-- create the dummy enhancement here
CALL SUBSCREEN subs_info INCLUDING gv_badi_prog gv_badi_dynnr.
for example declaration statement like I did
Step 4. Activate your created BAdi class and put the necessary logic there. I wasn't able to trigger method GET_DATA_FROM_SCREEN, but PUT_DATA_TO_SCREEN worked fine
If we put this simple processing for your requirement
METHOD cts_if_tadir_subscreen~get_data_from_screen.
IF object_data-l_mstlang <> 'E'.
MESSAGE 'Objects in non-English languages are not allowed!' TYPE 'A'.
ENDIF.
ENDMETHOD.
it will not allow creating objects in languages other than English.
The check in method get_data_from_screen is being done before showing the screen so language is determined from system logon settings. If to play more with this BAdi, I suppose the method GET_DATA_FROM_SCREEN can also be enabled, which will make it possible to check user input, i.e. the case when the user gonna change the default language.

Event Processing - Module channel

Could you explain what is the usage of Modules with select query?
For example if I write (as shown on this page https://cumulocity.com/guides/users-guide/administration/):
select * from MeasurementCreated
Is it useful to get real time notifications by subscribing of the related channel? Is the module reachable by an angularJs Module? Can this module be used in other CEL statements?
Just selecting data without putting it into another stream can make sense in the case you want to make this data available via a real-time channel to some external application (this could be of course AngularJs).
Take a look at this section in the docs: http://cumulocity.com/guides/reference/real-time-statements/#notifications
This very one example though does not make a lot of sense because raw measurement data is already provided on a real-time channel
http://www.cumulocity.com/guides/reference/measurements/#notifications
As for the second part of the question:
Yes it is possible to communicate with other modules within your tenant.
e.g. You can declare some stream in module a and it will be available in module b.

IBM Worklight - JSONStore logic to refresh data from the server and be able to work offline

currently the JSONStore API provides a load() method that says in the documentation:
This function always stores whatever it gets back from the adapter. If
the data exists, it is duplicated in the collection". This means that
if you want to avoid duplicates by calling load() on an already
populated collection, you need to empty or drop the collection before.
But if you want to be able to keep the elements you already have in
the collection in case there is no more connectivity and your
application goes for offline mode, you also need to keep track of
these existing elements.
Since the API doesn't provide a "overwrite" option that would replace the existing elements in case the call to the adapter succeeds, I'm wondering what kind of logic should be put in place in order to manage both offline availability of data and capability to refresh at any time? It is not that obvious to manage all the failure cases by nesting the JS code due to the promises...
Thanks for your advices!
One approach to achieve this:
Use enhance to create your own load method (i.e. loadAndOverwrite). You should have access to the all the variables kept inside an JSONStore instance (collection name, adapter name, adapter load procedure name, etc. -- you will probably use those variables in the invokeProcedure step below).
Call push to make sure there are no local changes.
Call invokeProcedure to get data, all the variables you need should be provided in the context of enhance.
Find if the document already exists and then remove it. Use {push: false} so JSONStore won't track that change.
Use add to add the new/updated document. Use {push: false} so JSONStore won't track that change.
Alternatively, if the document exists you can use replace to update it.
Alternatively, you can use removeCollection and call load again to refresh the data.
There's an example that shows how to use all those API calls here.
Regarding promises, read this from InfoCenter and this from HTML5Rocks. Google can provide more information.

How to find the Transport Request with my custom objects?

I've copied two Function Modules QM06_SEND_PAPER_STEP2 and QM06_FM_TASK_CLAIM_SEND_PAPER to similar Z* Function Modules. I've put these FMs into a ZQM06 Function Group which was created by another developer.
I want to use Transaction SCC1 to move my developments from one client to another. In transaction SE01 Transport Organizer I don't find the names of my 2 function modules anywhere.
How can I find out the change request with my work?
I copied the FM in order to modify functionality and I know FMs are client independent.
Function modules, like other ABAP workbench entities, are client-independent. That is, you do not need to copy them between clients on the same instance.
However, you can find the transport request that contains your changes by going to transaction SE37, entering the name of your function module, and then choosing Utilities -> Versions -> Version Management from the menu.
Provided you did not put the changes into a local package (like $TMP) the system will have asked you for a transport request when you saved or activated your changes, that is, unless the function group is in a modifiable transport request, in which case it would have created a new task for your user under that request which will contain you changes. To check the package, use Goto -> Object Directory Entry from the menu in SE37.
Function modules are often added to transports under the function group name, especially if they're new.
The easiest way to fin dhte transport is to go to SE37, display the function module, and then go to Version Management.
The answer from mydoghasworms is correct. Alternatively you can also use transaction SE03 -> Search for Objects in Requests/Tasks (top of the transaction screen) -> check the box next to "R3TR FUGR" and type in your function group name.

GMF Model & Table View

I have been given this task and would appreciate it if someone helped really. I built a Graphical Model through GMF, which is as follows;
As you see one of the nodes in the model has been selected. The task here is to create an eclipse view with a table, which will be automatically updated upon the selection of a so-called "City Node". As you may guess from the model, the table should contain path costs to all of the cities. I will later expand my solution to include a modified Dijkstra Algorithm but right now i am stuck in the creation of a table view.
I tried to build it using a TableViewer but it seems fairly complex since we need to set the input of the table on ContentProvider, but the twist here is that since we need a SelectionListener to obtain the City Coordinates (as it was ordered to calculate path-costs through the distance between two connected cities divided by the max speed, which was indicated on the connecting streets in the graph) and also the currently selected city, the path-costs need to be automatically calculated and displayed in the table upon the receipt of a click-event. This means that we somehow need to update the input which is gonna be handed to ContentProvider on every selection change.
For further information, I get the current selection through selectionChanged method of ISelectionListener interface and inside this method I put the city information in an arraylist. However although i declared this arraylist outside of the method as public, I cannot seem to access it from the outside of the method and thus can not pass it contentProvider. Eventually the input of the table can not be updated. I tried to write this text as simple as possible and I hope you guys can help me. As I can not foresee now what should be done, I would really appreciate it.
You're on the right track!
In your selection listener's ISelectionListener.selectionChanged method you just have to set the new input for the viewer with TableViewer.setInput. Then, the IStructuredContentProvider.inputChanged method gets invoked on the content provider for the viewer. It's here where you can do your stuff with the new input and refresh the viewer with TableViewer.refresh.
You can also use the JFace databinding framework, but I think you should be fine with what I've mentioned above.
