BIP Word Template and Apache FOP

Hello:
Can I create a report format using the BIP Word template .. export it as XSL-FO file and use it with the open source Apache-FOP from APEX?
Is there some technical constraints or licensing issues with doing this ?
Yesh

The xslfo, you created from BIP , will have reference to functions , which are customized function written by oracle BIP in JAVA,
so the apache-FOP has to know , that these functions are custom ones, not as normal XSL-fo...
Manual Conversion from RTF to XSL-FO, and using them in Standard support should work i guess.
The standard Supportgives only to XSL-FO, Advanced support helps you to get the RTF template , but for this, installation of BIP licensed is needed :)
With e-biz license,i dont think, you can install BIP separately, that has to be with E-biz only.

Creating Activities in CRM using Word Templates and Web Services??

Hi,
This functionality can be achieved through Adobe Interactive Forms from what I have learnt through demos etc. We are checking the feasibility of using with Word Templates instead.
This thread has multiple questions:
We are trying to set up the activity creation as mentioned in the CRM70 system.
1) At this point, finished the retrieval of information from the CRM Activity into a Word Template using a READ Web Service. Subsequently synchronized this with outlook and can see the Word document in the outlook item. Not able to open the same in Outlook, since it comes over as a XML document type. "Cannot open as there is a problem with the contents. ">" expected, line so and so...is the message
2) I created a Web Service that writes as well into CRM and would like to use this from the Word Template to create the activity in CRM
2a) Can the word template be incorporated with buttons that can trigger creation in CRM, similar to Adobe "Execute" etc
2b) If yes, and If there are some custom fields that I add to the activity transaction, in the UI, can I populate these with input from the Word Template, as well
Regards,
Ashwin

Hell Wregs,
You can create the Product in CRM GUI,by using Transaction:COMMPR01,not mandatory to have WebUI..,
but b4 that you need to set up Product Hierarchy and Product category under which the Products can be created.
Use Transaction:COMM_HIERARCHY Transaction to do this.
Hope this helps
let me know if any further questions
Thanks & Regards

PDF Printing with XSL-FO and Apache FOP

Can anyone show me in the right direction for this? I've been hitting a wall for the past 2 weeks or so and it's really starting to infuriate me. How am I supposed to work this out? Where do I start? Let's say I create a layout file with a WYSIWYG XSL editor, in what format do I export it? XSL, XSLT or XSL-FO? I figured it was XSL-FO, but who knows. I tried them all anyways, but nothing seems to work. I seem to be missing a step or something, 'cause something's definitely not right.
I created a report query (which actually contains two queries):

Best regards,

Hello Mathieu
i assume that the default PDF printing is working, but that you want to create some better looking reports and therefore use a different non-generic XSL-FO.
You can do several things in Apex but you can use the Apache-Fop conversion also indepent from Apex.
What you need is:
1) An XML (Data) File. You can get it from your report query when you say export it to XML.
2) The XSL-FO (Layout) file. THis is the processing instruction that says how convert the XML Data into an XML-FO. You can create it manually or with some tool.
3) The next step is to render the XML-FO into any output format (pdf, rtf, html)
The creation of the XML-FO and of the PDF are done by the apache fop converter (cocoon or Batik framework if I remember correctly) in a single process but you can influence it so that both steps are done separately. See also: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.95/running.html
The advantage is that you usually get much better error messages from the single steps.
My recommendation would be to do all the steps with a very basic report first.
Then gradually improve the complexity of the report, the data and the layout.

Word Templates and EASY Document Management

Hi all
I am currently evaluating Easy DMS for a customer and a couple of questions popped up.
Is it possible to create new Word documents based on a template from SAP DMS directly in MS Word?
Is it possible to use DMS Template documents in EASY DMS.
By templates I mean, MS Word documents stored in SAP DMS that have been customised as templates?
Lastly, can we use the mergefield technology of SAP DMS, in the new WebUI, in the EASY DMS solutions. I.e. can the new word document include metadata, like Document Status, if it was created using the WebUI and the EASY DMS solutions?
Any answers are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Sonny

Sonny,
Kindly go through the following external vendor presentation about how a Easy DMS interface would look like.

If you have any questions after going through the presentation, please do let me know,

Publishing Word templates and the Normal.dotm

Does the gpo use the 'update' method? That should stop any changes made by the user from sticking around for too long.
Hi, thanks for your input - im not familiar with the gpo setting for that, only when running from a command prompt. Where would I find this ?
Looking at the gpo (I didn't do this by the way) it runs a bat file that does and xcopy of the folders that contain the normal.dotm

Hello fellow Spice folks!So in a firm of approx. 200, we use a normal.dotm file, pushed out by GPO, for company styles, AutoText templates etc. When a change to the template is needed, we (or I) update the master copy, and let the GPO copy it back to client machines.Problem with this is quite often the client version of the normal.dotm gets corrupt, grows in size from people saving data to it some how (from the 730kb template to 2 or 3mb) causing issues when opening word and pissing of the users, and in turn me ! This method seems pretty barbaric to me, given that a firm I worked with 3 years ago used the same technique to publish company styles and saw same problems.What technology / method do you employ to distribute a shared company style to your client machines ?If I like it , I want it too !

Microsoft Word Templates and ActiveX Control Problems

Hi,
I am experiencing a strange problem in Microsoft Word. I am writing a VBA application which displays a cwgraph in a form. If I add the graph to a form in the Normal.dot template the control is fine. If I add the graph to a form in a new template (where all my code is) the graph displays evaluation copy. The graph in the Normal.dot template is fine and displays without the licensing information and in the properties it displays the correct licence code etc.
Has anyone experienced this before and got any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Joe

Jon.
Thanks for the reply. I have already run the license fixer utility and it does not locate any broken licenses. I have also uninstalled everything and deleted cwui.ocx in System32, then reinstalled and tried again. The strange thing is that it works in Visual Basic standalone, in the normal.dot template in Word. It just doesn't work in a different template file.
Thanks.

Working with Word Templates and signed Word macros storing documents in SAP

HI,
we are storing word documents in the SAP BDS. The documents contain macros. The security settings for word macros cannot be reduced in our environment.
So the documents / macros were signed. They work well. but as soon as they have been stored in the SAP BDS, we get the error message "You have modified a signed project.You do not have the correct key to sign this project. The signature will be discarded"
After that the word macros do not run.
Does anybody know this problem and the solution?
Regards
Harald

And this is related to workflow in what way?

How to use the Report Generation Toolkit to get a list of bookmarks in a Word Template

I am working on a project where I will need to use the Report Generation Toolkit to fill out a fairly long Word Template. The MS Office Report Express VI can only have inputs for a maximum of 17 bookmarks which is not nearly enough for what I am needing to do.
I'm wondering if there is some way to use the lower level report generation VIs to read the word template and return a list of the bookmark names as a 1d array of string. The dialog box that you use to set up the Express VI has this capability but I'm not finding a way to scan the document programatically.
I'm sure I can't be the first person to run into this issue and I'm hoping that someone out there has found a good solution.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Wordsub.llb should be somewhere in your Labview folder on your local drive. The path to it in my install is: C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.6\vi.lib\addons\_office\_wordsub.llb
Also what specific problem are you referring to about 17 bookmarks? Is that the limit on the express style VI for filling them in from LV? If so what you will need to do is to use the lower level function 'Word Insert Field' under Word Advanced VIs. You will need to supply the VI the name of the bookmark and the text you want to insert.

Word Templates in a Sharepoint Library

Hi,
Is there a way to get the same behaviour in a document library in SP2010 as when you "open" (= double click) on a Word template (.dot/.dotm extension) in the Windows Explorer => creates a new document based on the template.
(I know about creating a content type, add a template and attach that content type to the document library.)
Thanks,
Peeter

That works if you only have one template.
Is teher no way to have Sharepoint understand that a .dot file is a Word template and hence, as default, create a new document instead of opening the template itself. Exactly as it would in Windows Explorer.
Peeter
ps There is another thread
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/sharepointecm/thread/194e559e-3aa3-4330-8f54-936afdab6e3a that mentions a method to create a webpart to accomplish this. Can someone explain more in detail how this is done? ds
Peeter, yes my solution is only work when you have one template. Although for the multiple template, you need to enable the content type and thus this option would not available when you select content type. Thus if you want to assign more templates with single
doc library, then content type would be the idle option and new document item click open the default content type template.Although content type will work on single template also.
Further, the mentioned link I think discussing the other possible solution in the absence of content type. But you can decide based on above explanation. its good to go for content type for extendability .

Hello,
we run on crm5.0 and when i try to use the templates we connected to e.g. BP i get the error message "Unable to use chosen entry as Microsoft Word template" and the buttons stay inactive in the ICWeb.
In the ICWin those templates work fine. Is there some customizing missing?
I tried it with .dot, .doc and .txt files.
Kind regards

RMPS: Word Templates & Attributes

Hi Everyone,
i've created a word template and i copy a text on it using Create From Template.
But, there's a bug or something else wrong if i try to set the same attribute for
many times on the same word template.
Only the first field on word is set, the others leave blank.
Anyone knows why ?
SAP problem ?
MS-Word problem ?
Thank You !!!

It is not possible to run a macro in SharePoint after the document has been uploaded.
You can replicate this scenario by creating a SPItemEventReceiver which will run customized code on ItemAdded in your document library.

DefaultValue in BIP data template's parameter is not working

Hi,
I have given the below in BIP data template and submit the concurrent program(in R12 ) without parameter. But the below given default value has not been taken by the program.
<parameter name="P1" dataType="character" defaultValue="abc"/>
How to pass the default value in BIP data template.
Regards,
P.Kalidoss

Hi,
The data type is optional... so perhaps try
<parameter name="P1" defaultValue="abc"/>
Alternatively, 'parameters data types' can only be String, Integer, Boolean, Date or Float so perhaps try something like this...
<parameter name="P1" dataType="String" defaultValue="abc"/>
Hope this helps
