Best possible approach to add fields in an FPM WDA application

Hi guys,
Our SRM 7 has FPM based WDA views. Extending the customer include by appending fields alone will not work for us as some fields are dropdowns that will perform actions and display/hide other custom fields.
I can think of the enhancement framework to enhance the views. Since i am knew to WDA and FPM I am thinking there is another easier way to do this.
What is the best possible approach to fulfil this requirement?
Regards
Ali

Thanks to responses from Chaitanya and Thomas.
I managed to create additional fields(with action assigned) in the standard shopping cart screens.
I extended the SRM header structure, added the custom fields of this structure in the header node of the context, and by binding the property of these fileds to the attributes, I don't have to code for the fields enable/disable when the transation is called in edit/create/display mode.
However, I am still struggling with the dropdown(with action). They remain enabled, even when the data has been saved or the transaction is in display mode. Hints?
Regards, Ali

  • Best Possible Approach : Service Broker or replication?

    I have a business scenario. I have an application whose DB resides on SQL Server A. My application resides on SQL server B. Both SQL servers are on the same network. Server A has a table that is being constantly updated via a web application. We want that
    table to be on Server B. At present it is updated nightly from Server A to Server B.
    We want the changes to be replicated to server B in almost real time. 30 minutes delay could work.
    Now considering this business case what would eb my best options:
    1. Implement CDC on server A for the interested table ( Please note that CDC is only for 1 table, I'm not sure if this is possible) . Bring the table from Server A once to Server B using a Linked Server. Then use the CDC from server A to Merge and Update
    on table on Server b using a SP and Schedule this SP after 30 minutes.
    OR
    2. Use CDC and Service combination.
    OR
    3. use Replication.
    OR  ...???
    Any help will greatly be appreciated.

    Snapshot Replication is OK solution here.  You would need to set the snapshot period to 30 min or less. If you want changes to get populated immediately use transactional replication. Service Broker is the best approach since you wouldn't
    have to maintain infrastructures associated with establishing replication facility. But use of Service Broker will require some expertise. Also take a look at this product called SnipeDB framework SnipeDB.com SnipeDB framework would not replicate the
    table, but would allow any subscriber application to get an update on any change in your data.

  • Best possible way to achieve HashMap (Java Collection) in ABAP

    Hi
    I need to store name-value pair at runtime, where name act as a key (something what HashMap provides in Java). What is the best possible approach to do this?
    I can create a Structure (having two fields name and value) and then a Table Type on this structure to store multiple values, but how to make it unique?
    Please help.
    Regards,
    Arpit.

    Hi,
    In ABAP you can define table with KEY as unique.
    You also have different types of table in SAP. (Standard, Hashed, Sorted).
    You can refer to the link for details.

  • Best possible appraoch to migrate OAF personalization from 11i to R12

    Hi
    We are upgrading the EBS application from 11i to R12 and I am dealing with OAF personalization.
    Since some of the screen (Agent and Sales Dashboard) layouts in R12 are changed significantly, I believe we have no alternative but to re-implement those changes manually.
    I was wondering what would be the best approach to do this and while doing this how I can make sure that I have not missed any change.
    Appreciate any help on this.
    Swaroop

    The best possible approach is to deprecate them. Are they still needed with R12?

  • Add fields in transformations in BI 7 (best practice)?

    Hi Experts,
    I have a question regarding transformation of data in BI 7.0.
    Task:
    Add new fields in a second level DSO, based on some manipulation of first level DSO data. In 3.5 we would have used a start routine to manipulate and append the new fields to the structure.
    Possible solutions:
    1) Add the new fields to first level DSO as well (empty)
    - Pro: Simple, easy to understand
    - Con: Disc space consuming, performance degrading when writing to first level DSO
    2) Use routines in the field mapping
    - Pro: Simple
    - Con: Hard to performance optimize (we could of course fill an internal table in the start routine and then read from this to get some performance optimization, but the solution would be more complex).
    3) Update the fields in the End routine
    - Pro: Simple, easy to understand, can be performance optimized
    - Con: We need to ensure that the data we need also exists (i.e. if we have one field in DSO 1 that we only use to calculate a field in DSO 2, this would also have to be mapped to DSO 2 in order to exist in the routine).
    Does anybody know what is best practice is? Or do you have any experience regarding what you see as the best solution?
    Thank you in advance,
    Mikael

    Hi Mikael.
    I like the 3rd option and have used this many many times.  In answer to your question:-
    Update the fields in the End routine
    - Pro: Simple, easy to understand, can be performance optimized  - Yes have read and tested this that it works faster.  A OSS consulting note is out there indicating the speed of the end routine.
    - Con: We need to ensure that the data we need also exists (i.e. if we have one field in DSO 1 that we only use to calculate a field in DSO 2, this would also have to be mapped to DSO 2 in order to exist in the routine). - Yes but by using the result package, the manipulation can be done easily.
    Hope it helps.
    Thanks,

  • Is it possible to add fields in field catelog

    Hi,
    Pl inform is it possible to add field as per requirement in field catelog.
    which is used for picking fields for condition table.

    Hi,
    Use user exit adding fields to field catlog.
    USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMK (module pool SAPLV60A, program RV60AFZZ)
    This user exit allows you to copy additional fields for pricing in the TKOMK communication structure (header fields), which have not been provided in the standard SAP system. These fields can also be used for pricing in the billing document.
    This user exit is described in detail in the "New fields in pricing" section.
    USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMP (module pool SAPLV60A, program RV60AFZZ)
    This user exit allows you to copy additional fields for pricing in the TKOMP communication structure (item fields), which have not been provided in the standard SAP system. These fields can also be used for pricing.

    Thank you for the helpful answer.
    Best Regrads,
    Bernardus Jalu

    Dear Bernardus
    If you want to add user fields @ operation level, just a work around: Use General TL concept.
    In TL configuration u can maintain User fields @ operation level and you can maintain your own user fields for each operation.
    Hope this helps.

  • Add field to item position overview of Purchase Order

    Dear SRM gurus,
    I'm working on a change request of a customer.
    They want to add a field to the item overview position of Purchase Orders.
    They are using SRM 4.0 in Extended Classic Scenario.
    When displaying the list of Purchase Orders only the headers are shown. When clicking on a header the item positions are shown below the header. In this item overview the customer wants a field to be added.
    The field to be added is the GL Account. The customer wants this field to be visible before opening the item of the Purchase Order.
    We already know which screen should be changed to display the field.
    The screen is SAPLBBP_PO_UI_ITS and screen number 4000.
    Is it possible to add fields to this screen?
    If it is possible, how can this be done?
    Thank you in advance for your support,
    Best regards,
    Jean-Pierre

  • What is best performing approach to report building in my case?

    Hi all,
    I want to know what is the best performing approach in the case of an overload of the system,
    understood as large number of concurrent operations.
    Each operation is a query that, in most cases, returns a large amount of data.
    I am interested in the approach that not create bottlenecks and slow down, blocks for a long time the system.
    The alternatives that I would like more information about are:
    1) reports built with the JDBC (JNDI) specifying "java:jdbc/xxxxdatasource"
    (taken from the oracle-ds.xml's jndi-name tag) as "Connection name (optional)"
    with the query written into the rpt file and runned by Crystal Reports that I think makes a direct connection to DB
    and integrated into Java with Java Reporting Component.
    This approach has also threads limits, depending on the version of the report engine.
    2) reports built with "Field definition only" with the query written and runned into the my application that call the report only through the resultSet to be displayed
    (reportClientDoc.getDatabaseController().setDataSource(resultSet, tableName , tableName);)
    My concern with this approach is that it seems to require loading all results into memory
    and generating the report in one big step.
    Is there a way to avoid this? Some-how to page through report data?
    I've also read that Crystal Reports can work with any data provider that implements ResultSet.
    Is this true? If so, could I create my own custom ResultSet implementation that would let me
    page through my results without loading everything into memory at-once?
    If possible, please point me to the documentation for this approach.
    I haven't been able to find any examples.
    If there is a better approach that I haven't mentioned, please let me know.
    Thanks in advance

    The first option is the best one for performance.  The only time you should use result sets is when you need to do runtime manipulation of the data through your application and is not acheivable in a stored procedure.

  • Getting the best possible output video quality in Premiere 8.0

    Here is my PC information:
    Windows 7 64 bit
    Intel Quad Core Q6600 @2.40 Ghz
    4.0 GB of Ram
    My Camera information:
    Kodak Playsport HD
    Records videos in HD 720P @ 60 FPS
    Saves movies in .MOV format, 1280 x 720 resolution, and H.264 codec
    Now I am playing around with the settings but when I edit movies in Premiere Elements and then save it I always lose a lot of quality. I'm not really interested in sharing the videos on the web, I'm just looking for the best possible quality (as close to how it looks in its original form) for viewing on my home computer. Can anybody help me out with decent export settings that will give me the best overall quality?

    Hello Bill and thank you for your respone, I appreciate it. I've managed to get the overall quality of the movie a lot better with using different presets at new project. I am now using the preset NTSC-HDV-HDV720p 30 and that seems to be working a lot better. I also save the final movies as a Quicktime file, with a Local Area Network (LAN) and then I go to advanced and bring up the quality to 100, change it to 1280x720, bring the frame rate up to 60, and set the bitrate at 8000.
    I am now having a different problem however. It seems that when I add a music to the background the song messes up frequently. What I mean is that when I'm watching the movie I created the video will be playing normally and then at random times the song will skip or get choppy. Then on top of that, with certain transitions between scenes the transition won't even work, it will just freeze for a bit and then skip to the next scene (On a side note, I leave the "Field Type" as "Progressive" and the "Aspect" as "Square Pixels [1.0] simply because I'm not sure what those are for).
    I just uploaded this practice video to youtube, if you want to check it out it's at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVorCPASaGM
    Keep in mind I just threw together a couple random pictures and clips just to practice haha. You will be able to notice that the song and video get slightly choppy for some reason.
    Thanks in advance!

  • "Home Page" Missing in New Card in Address Book 3.1.2 - and can't add field

    i have been using Address Book for several years and 292 cards created. many of them have "home page" URL's that are accessible in Safari. brilliant. nice work Apple.
    however, i have just tried to make a NEW CARD and find that no "home page" field is being offered for population. puzzling.
    if i go to Card > Add Field > the dropdown presents all the possible default fields available. those that are currently in the card are greyed out, those that may be added are black and selectable.
    Home Page is greyed out and unselectable despite it not being currently available in the new card i have just created and attempted to populate.
    what the heck is going on here?? it has obviosly worked correctly in the past, i have at least 90 cards with URLs in them.

    Is it possible that you've altered the template so that home page is a default? (I.e., it's already on the card) That would cause it to gray out. I was just having a similar problem in trying to Add Field... and finally, the penny dropped that the field was already there, just not where I was looking.
    I apologize if this seems obvious or dumb, but I'm reasonably bright and yet it wasn't obvious enough to keep me from hunting around for five minutes with furrowed brow.

  • How to add fields to Structure in Report Painter

    Hi All,
    We have a requiremnt where we need to add 2 fields ( profit center-PRCTR & description-CEPCT-LTEXT ) to structure CCSS. This structure is attached to library 1VK.
    Is it possible to add fields directly to a structure or do I need to create a new structure and attach it to a new library.
    If any one of this is possible, how can I do this ?

  • Can you add fields that are manually maintained.

    I'd like to be able to add fields to my MAP Toolkit's inventory. For example, adding Asset and Warranty fields, to keep track of this information. I'd be maintaining the data manually, which is fine since it doesn't change very often. Is there a way to extend
    the toolkit to include these types of fields?
    So far the only solution I've been able to think of is to generate reports, convert the .XLS to .CSV, and then use PowerShell to merge the .CSV with a file containing the static information. This would be quite an undertaking as I'd need either different
    scripts, of different logic paths, to deal with the multiple reports available from the toolkit.
    Thanks
    Jim Winner

    The reports are generated using queries that are in stored procedures. I suppose it would be possible to modify the query so that extra columns would be created, but I don't know how you would get the data into MAP.
