logResourceStatusChanged for specific date_time

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

on SAP ME 15.0 we are trying to update the resource status by calling the papi service: logResourceStatusChanged

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:mep="mepapi:com:sap:me:production" xmlns:prod="http://www.sap.com/me/production">
   <soapenv:Header/>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <mep:logResourceStatusChanged>
         <!--Optional:-->
         <mep:Site>GPE</mep:Site>
         <!--Optional:-->
         <mep:Request>
            <!--1 or more repetitions:-->
            <prod:logResourceStatusChangedList>
               <prod:resourceRef>ResourceBO:GPE,MASCHINE1</prod:resourceRef>
               <prod:resourceStatusRef>StatusBO:GPE,1</prod:resourceStatusRef>
<!--StatusBO:GPE,5-->
               <!--Optional:-->
               <prod:dateTime>2014-08-08 13:51:01</prod:dateTime>

            </prod:logResourceStatusChangedList>
         </mep:Request>
      </mep:logResourceStatusChanged>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

Response:

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

   <SOAP-ENV:Body>

      <ns3:logResourceStatusChangedResponse xmlns:ns4="mepapi:com:sap:me:reasoncode" xmlns:ns2="http://www.sap.com/me/production" xmlns:ns3="mepapi:com:sap:me:production">

         <ns3:Response>

            <ns2:responseList>

               <ns2:resourceTimeLogRef>ResourceTimeLogBO:GPE,ResourceBO:GPE,MASCHINE120140808.144229.564</ns2:resourceTimeLogRef>

            </ns2:responseList>

         </ns3:Response>

      </ns3:logResourceStatusChangedResponse>

   </SOAP-ENV:Body>

</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

As you see, the response is positiv and I can see the change in the RESOURCE_TIME_LOG table as well. However the tag <prod:dateTime> doesn't seem to have any impact. I was assuming that <prod:dateTime> would eventually set the START_DATE_TIME, but that's not the case. The date is not even validated.

So my question is: What is <prod:dateTime> used for or can it be completely ignored?

thanks for your help.

cheers,

Georg

Hello Georg,

I check JavaDoc and it says that this is the date/time this event took place. If not given, uses the current time.
So, I would expect it to be accepted. Could you try to set data in another format? For example:

2014-08-08T14:21:20.000+02:00

Br,

Alex.

Hi Alexander,

you are absolutely right. It works the way you described if the date format matches your example.

thanks a lot.

Georg
