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

Word template with web service - style and font not considered
Hi experts.
I'm using a word template with a web services.
So i've added my xml tags in the template and i've tried to change the font and style but when i launch the document, what i have defined is never considered. For example if i set in a table that a line should be in Italic, when i edit the document no text is in italic ?
Did you ever faced this kind of issue ?
How did you manage to set you style to the xml tags ?
Thanks in advance for your help.I also had similar problems but I didn't work on word template for quite a long time. But at that time I solved the problem with formating the word and not the xml tag directly.
For example: I wrote the word lastname and formated it to for exampe, bold and italic like lastname. After thet I selected the word and applied the xml tag to that word and this worked just fine.

Problems using LiveCycle Designer and Web Services
Hi there.
I've just finished reading all the 485 post in this forum, and I've already looked at all the samples and FAQ's, but I still I have the same problem, and it seems I'm not the only one. Here goes:
I have a .NET Web Service that exposes three methods: one that indicates which PDF to open, one to pre-populate some of the fields of the form and another one to handle the submitted form.
The first method is called within my asp.net web application and simply determines which pdf form to open in a given context. This one is cool and I have no problems here.
The second method populates my pdf form. But here starts the trouble. I can't seem to make the pdf call the web service when it is loaded. I mean, what I want is to tell the pdf form that when he loads (and before he shows on the browser), he should call the web service method that pre-populates him. But I can't seem to be able to do this. I've seen JimmiPham's CheckCreditCard.pdf sample, but what he does is call the web service upon a click on the button. What I wanted is similar but on the load of the form. I've added the following line of javascript code to the initialize method of a textbox:
msg.rawValue = xfa.connectionSet.conn.execute(0);
where msg is the textbox and conn is the name of my connection. I've used this code based on the sample of the designer help. I've also tried to drag and drop the button from the dataview (the one that is automatically generated) but it wont work. If I press it it gives me an error stating that there was an error attempting to read the web service file (*.asmx).
I've also tried to drag and drop the textbox in the generated web service response (in the dataview) but nothing works.
Does anyone have any ideas of what am I doing wrong? This is my first contact with this technology, and I really don't know very well how to manipulate it...
Regards.Hi Jimmy.<br /><br />Thanks for the help.<br />I'm getting really desperate now. Your sample doesn't work. However I have some more info that might bring some light into the fight...<br />I've seen your sample (awesome work), tried it and saved it. Then I opened it with designer 7.0 and checked the code in the click event of the button.<br />Then I copied/pasted your code into my form. I dragged a text box and a button into my form and left them with the default names (TextBox1 and Button1). In the click event of Button1 I've pasted your code and then changed the parts I wanted, as follows:<br /><br />----- form1.#subform[0].Button1::click - (JavaScript, client) --------------------------------------<br />var cWSURL = "http://localhost/SIIOP.PDFManager/PDFManager.asmx?WSDL";<br /><br />app.alert("Setup webservicex PopulatePDF Interface using WSDL URL: \"" + cWSURL + "\"\n");<br /><br />SOAP.wiredump = true;<br /><br />var service = SOAP.connect(cWSURL);<br /><br />if(typeof service != "object")<br /> app.alert("Couldn't get PopulatePDF WSDL object");<br /><br />if(service.PopulatePDF == "undefined")<br /> app.alert("Couldn't get webservicex.PopulatePDF Call");<br /><br />var e;<br /><br />// I need no parameters<br />//var param =<br />//{<br />// "CardNumber": xfa.resolveNode("CardNumber").rawValue<br />//};<br /><br />try<br />{<br /> app.alert("Make PopulatePDF SOAP call");<br /> <br />// var result = service.CheckCC(param);<br /> var result = service.PopulatePDF();<br /><br /> if((result == "") || (result == null)) {<br /> app.alert("WebService PopulatePDF returns nothing");<br /> result = "<no results returned>";<br /> }<br /><br />function dump(obj)<br />{<br /><br /> if(typeof obj == "object")<br /> {<br /> for(var i in obj)<br /> {<br /> app.alert("note1: " + i + " = " + obj[i]);<br /> if (i == "string")<br /> {<br /> xfa.form.Page1.TextField1.rawValue = obj[i];<br /> }<br /> }<br /> }<br /> else app.alert("note2: " + i + " = " + obj[i]);<br />}<br /><br />dump(result);<br /><br />SOAP.wiredump = false;<br /><br /> //xfa.datasets.data.loadXML(result);<br /> //xfa.resolveNode("CardType").rawValue = result["urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-diffgram-v1diffgram"]["NewDataSet"]["Table"].CardTy pe;<br /> //xfa.resolveNode("CardValid").rawValue = result["urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-diffgram-v1diffgram"]["NewDataSet"]["Table"].CardVa lid;<br /><br />}<br />catch(e)<br />{<br /> app.alert("Problem with webservicex.PopulatePDF Call: " + e);<br />}<br /><br />I saved the form and opened it with internet explorer. When I press the button, I get the first alert stating that "Setup webservicex PopulatePDF Interface using WSDL URL: http://localhost/SIIOP.PDFManager/PDFManager.asmx?WSDL". That's correct.<br />Then I get an alert that says "Couldn't get PopulatePDF WSDL object", which means that he can't get the object. The result is undefined. But that's odd, since I can establish a data connection to this WSDL using the New Data Connection wizard, and in this wizard it even says which methods and actions the web service has... So, the problem must be in the way the web service exposes himself to the PDF, right? <br />Well anyway, here follows the wsdl I have:<br /><br /> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <br />- <wsdl:definitions xmlns:http="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/http/" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/" xmlns:s="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:tns="http://tempuri.org/" xmlns:tm="http://microsoft.com/wsdl/mime/textMatching/" xmlns:mime="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/mime/" targetNamespace="http://tempuri.org/" xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"><br />- <wsdl:types><br />- <s:schema elementFormDefault="qualified" targetNamespace="http://tempuri.org/"><br />- <s:element name="PopulatePDF"><br /> <s:complexType /> <br /> </s:element><br />- <s:element name="PopulatePDFResponse"><br />- <s:complexType><br />- <s:sequence><br /> <s:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="PopulatePDFResult" type="s:string" /> <br /> </s:sequence><br /> </s:complexType><br /> </s:element><br />- <s:element name="CallPDF"><br /> <s:complexType /> <br /> </s:element><br />- <s:element name="CallPDFResponse"><br />- <s:complexType><br />- <s:sequence><br /> <s:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="CallPDFResult" type="s:string" /> <br /> </s:sequence><br /> </s:complexType><br /> </s:element><br />- <s:element name="HandleSubmittedPDF"><br /> <s:complexType /> <br /> </s:element><br />- <s:element name="HandleSubmittedPDFResponse"><br />- <s:complexType><br />- <s:sequence><br /> <s:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="HandleSubmittedPDFResult" type="s:string" /> <br /> </s:sequence><br /> </s:complexType><br /> </s:element><br /> </s:schema><br /> </wsdl:types><br />- <wsdl:message name="PopulatePDFSoapIn"><br /> <wsdl:part name="parameters" element="tns:PopulatePDF" /> <br /> </wsdl:message><br />- <wsdl:message name="PopulatePDFSoapOut"><br /> <wsdl:part name="parameters" element="tns:PopulatePDFResponse" /> <br /> </wsdl:message><br />- <wsdl:message name="CallPDFSoapIn"><br /> <wsdl:part name="parameters" element="tns:CallPDF" /> <br /> </wsdl:message><br />- <wsdl:message name="CallPDFSoapOut"><br /> <wsdl:part name="parameters" element="tns:CallPDFResponse" /> <br /> </wsdl:message><br />- <wsdl:message name="HandleSubmittedPDFSoapIn"><br /> <wsdl:part name="parameters" element="tns:HandleSubmittedPDF" /> <br /> </wsdl:message><br />- <wsdl:message name="HandleSubmittedPDFSoapOut"><br /> <wsdl:part name="parameters" element="tns:HandleSubmittedPDFResponse" /> <br /> </wsdl:message><br />- <wsdl:portType name="PDFManagerSoap"><br />- <wsdl:operation name="PopulatePDF"><br /> <wsdl:input message="tns:PopulatePDFSoapIn" /> <br /> <wsdl:output message="tns:PopulatePDFSoapOut" /> <br /> </wsdl:operation><br />- <wsdl:operation name="CallPDF"><br /> <wsdl:input message="tns:CallPDFSoapIn" /> <br /> <wsdl:output message="tns:CallPDFSoapOut" /> <br /> </wsdl:operation><br />- <wsdl:operation name="HandleSubmittedPDF"><br /> <wsdl:input message="tns:HandleSubmittedPDFSoapIn" /> <br /> <wsdl:output message="tns:HandleSubmittedPDFSoapOut" /> <br /> </wsdl:operation><br /> </wsdl:portType><br />- <wsdl:binding name="PDFManagerSoap" type="tns:PDFManagerSoap"><br /> <soap:binding transport="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http" style="document" /> <br />- <wsdl:operation name="PopulatePDF"><br /> <soap:operation soapAction="http://tempuri.org/PopulatePDF" style="document" /> <br />- <wsdl:input><br /> <soap:body use="literal" /> <br /> </wsdl:input><br />- <wsdl:output><br /> <soap:body use="literal" /> <br /> </wsdl:output><br /> </wsdl:operation><br />- <wsdl:operation name="CallPDF"><br /> <soap:operation soapAction="http://tempuri.org/CallPDF" style="document" /> <br />- <wsdl:input><br /> <soap:body use="literal" /> <br /> </wsdl:input><br />- <wsdl:output><br /> <soap:body use="literal" /> <br /> </wsdl:output><br /> </wsdl:operation><br />- <wsdl:operation name="HandleSubmittedPDF"><br /> <soap:operation soapAction="http://tempuri.org/HandleSubmittedPDF" style="document" /> <br />- <wsdl:input><br /> <soap:body use="literal" /> <br /> </wsdl:input><br />- <wsdl:output><br /> <soap:body use="literal" /> <br /> </wsdl:output><br /> </wsdl:operation><br /> </wsdl:binding><br />- <wsdl:service name="PDFManager"><br /> <documentation xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/" /> <br />- <wsdl:port name="PDFManagerSoap" binding="tns:PDFManagerSoap"><br /> <soap:address location="http://localhost/SIIOP.PDFManager/PDFManager.asmx" /> <br /> </wsdl:port><br /> </wsdl:service><br /> </wsdl:definitions><br /><br />If I invoke this webservice method through Internet Explorer, I get the following response:<br /><br /> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <br /> <string xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">Hello World</string>

Thanks!
Best regards Eva
Edited by: Eva Hamberg on Jan 11, 2010 11:46 AMHello,
First of all I would recommend to implement all OSS notes for your CRM version. Search for application area "CRM-BF-COM". Example:
Note 1068364 - Office Integration fixes CRM 5.2
Then kindly check the online help for more information on how to use the template designer:

XML scheme and Web services enhancement for MS Word integration in CRM 2007
Hi,
I am trying to use the Template designer and the web services tool in order to create a MS Word template for the quotation.
We have created a new web service, using the Web Service Tool
(transaction BSP_WD_CMPWB, type WS_DESIGN_TOOL). I can use this web service when creating a quotation word template and everything works fine.
I need to enhance the web service with some custom fields and logic. I found the blog:
Web-services enhancement for MS Word integration in CRM 2007
/people/community.user/blog/2008/11/18/web-services-enhancement-for-ms-word-integration-in-crm-2007
The blog describe how to enhance the web service, extend the output
structure etc.
We have done all the steps in the blog, and everything looks fine. When
we test the web service, using the Web Service Navigator, all the new
fields we added to the output structure are displayed. The WSDL
document also looks fine, displayed from the Web Service
Administration.
The problem occur when try to create the word template using the
Template Designer. The XML scheme is not displayed in the word
document. This only happens if we use an enhanced web service.
Anyone familiar with this issue?
Kind regards,
Johan WigertHi,
You may have to upgrade your MS word 2003 to MS Word 2007.
Before you do that please opening View > toolbars > Task Pane and check if you can get XML Schema from the web service.

Hi,
I have created a pdf from a word-file and inserted formfields for a work related file. I've used nitro pro to create the formfield. They works in nitro, reader, foxit etc. but not adobe reader. From page 3 and out, the font wont show when writing in a formfield. Some formfield doesnt even show.
Please help me fix this (hopefully before the presentation at work friday) :-)

TobiasAgreed. Adobe makes no claims that their Reader will work properly with forms made from third party software.

Linking Access tables, creating a query with using both Access and Oracle
Hello,
I am using 3.0.04.34 version Oracle Developer. I am supposed to create a script/procedure to use both Access tables and oracle tables together. There is an option in developer to copy the access tables into oracle. But it doesn't help me. Because when we updated the access tables
the copied ones are not be updated. How can I created a linked access tables to oracle and create a query with using both access and oracle table together.
I will appreciate if you guys help me. I look forward to hearing from you guys.
Thanks,
PinarPinar,
to be able to query MS Access tables in Oracle you need an additional product, the Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC. It allows you to link any foreign database into an Oracle database using a suitable ODBC driver. You can then access the MS Access tables through a database link based on the Database Gateway for ODBC. This will also allow you to join local Oracle and remote MS Access tables from your Oracle database.
There's a note on My Oracle Support which gives you more details:Document 233876.1 Options for Connecting to Foreign Data Stores and Non-Oracle Databases - For example - DB2, SQL*Server, Sybase, Informix, Teradata, MySQL
And there's also a dedicated Forum: Heterogeneous Connectivity -

I am attempting to print a number of DL size envelopes using Word 2010 and Excel 2010 on a HP Officejet 6500A Plus printer in Operating system Windows 7. Using the mail merge facility the printer reports a paper mismatch. Word does not appear to have envelope DL size in its list of paper sizes only something called envelope #10. The Print driver software when I run out of stationery asks me to load more stationery and hit the OK button.
Questions
1. How do I add envelope DL size to Word 2010
2. Where is the Officejet 6500A Plus OK button
3. Has this problem been experienced by others

GTC Connector using SPML Format Provider and Web Services Transport Provide
Hello All,
Did any body create a GTC connector which uses SPML Format for Format Provider and Web Services format for Transport Provider?
Is there any doc which talks about the same?
I need to provision to a system over web services and I thought GTC using the above formats should be an easy approach. Am I right?
I was trying to follow:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/doc.1111/e14309/devgtc.htm#BABDFDFE
But Iam getting lost in the immerse details.
Thanks in advance.Hi ,
I tried creating one and am getting the following error while provisioning:
SPML Response failed V2 schema validation
Th eoracle document says :Ensure that the SPML response returned by the target system conforms to the SPML V2 standard specification
Please help me with the same. What is it that needs to be done here.

Migrating a Eclipse Project to JDeveloper and use it as a web service
Hi Guys,
I have a problem with migrating a Eclipse Project (EP) to JDeveloper. I know there are several threads about the problem out there but none of these fit my needs.
So, here is the problem:
I didn't had any problems migrating EPs to JDev in the past but this project is neither a .jar/.lib nor could I change it to one of those types. The project hase some additional filesto work. These files areare libs and owl-mappings for Jena/Pellet ( [http://jena.sourceforge.net/|http://jena.sourceforge.net/] ).
My porblem is that I don't know who to migrate the project to JDev and then use it as a web service, while the file structure stays the same plus everything is uploaded to Oracle as a web service. Meaning everything has to be included in one java package. Or am i wrong?
The file structure looks like this (from the EP):
src\*.java
owl\*.owl
lib\*.lib
location-mapping.n3
expdt.props
The Libraries aren't a problem. They are all .jar-files but could be easily included in the project (JDev) but I don't know how to handle the other files. Especially the much needed owl files :(
Maybe I'm doing it all wrong. My Goal is to use the EP as a web servies for a business process to enforce rulings and obligations. I'm kinda stumped...
Greetings,
SebastianThank you very much, Shay. It helped regaining overview of the project files. Before all additional files were in the AppFolder.
I got to a point where I (hopefully) only got a problem with the directory matching (which is needed by jena).
Tanks again.

ER diagrams in word docs and web pages
What are the best ways of getting ER diagrams displayed in Word documents and web pages? The output facilities from Designer seem a bit limited unless I am missing something.
True, the diagrammer is a modelling tool, not a drawing tool.
To get your diagram in word however you can select & copy the entities in a windows fashion to word (Ctrl-C + Ctrl-V).
If you want the contents of the repository in html on the web you should try ODWA (Oracle Designer Web Assitant)!

The Oracle Database Programming using Java and Web services book is out
This book http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1555583296 shows how to build pragmatic applications using the combination of PL/SQL, Java in the database, JDBC, SQLJ, JPublisher, and Web services. It is intented for database developers, DBA, data architects, Java developers and Web services assemblers.
My blog http://db360.blogspot.com/ and the free/sample chapter http://www.oracle.com/technology/books/pdfs/mensah_ch1.pdf will give you a feel of the content.
Enjoy, KuassiHi Kuassi,
Thanks for letting us know that your book is available. I have been following one of your articles about "Virtualize Your Oracle Database with Web Services". More specifically "The Database as Web Services Consumer". I think that this is an area that has in the past been under estimated as to the potential benefits.
I am currently trying to develop a solution that consumes several interfaces with a couple of them being published web services, so an ideal solution. I have then spent the last three weeks having to read up about the architecture of Java in the database, Jpublisher and make sense of how it all works together.
I have got very close to getting one of the web services to work but failed due to using 10gR2 where all the java & libraries has moved to version 1.5. The solution is to load the jdk1.4.2 and configure jpublisher to use this. So far so good except this is not available on some platforms, Windows - 64 bit (not itanium).
The configuration is proving very challenging but will hopefully reap rewards.
(Thought I would give you some background to my experience).
Anyway my question to you is having looked at Jdeveloper it appears to do almost anything except consume services into the database, also with Java now being at version 1.5 outside the database for 10gR2 and supporting 1.4 inside, do you see some alignment of these in future database releases?
Finally off to buy your book now as no doubt there is a huge amount more to learn.
Kind Regards
David O'Donnell
