Enhance context menu in WAD 7.0

I need to enhance the context menu in a WAD 7.0 template. There a different approaches to do this in 3.5, but none of these work with 7.0.
The javascript function SAPBWAddToMenu is no more available rsp. visible and there is no command/parameter in the web item "context menu".
Any ideas how to implement it with 7.0?

Hi,
I am sorry but I think it is not possible in BI 7.0 at the moment.

How to configure Context menu in WAD 7.0

Hi experts.
I want to take away some of the possibilities in the context menu in WAD.
( take away send e-mail ).
Can anyone please tell me where I can find this.
I would like to change this for all WAD- templates in the portal.
Thanks in advance.

Use the Context Menu web item within your template and disable the property. You can save this item to the library as reusable item and use it in all your templates.

Enhance Context Menu Attributes in WAD

Hi All,
Iam trying to enhance the context menu properties (like including a select filter value using MENU_SELECT_FILTER)of the Web Application in WAD but when enter this in the HTML and give a value to it in the Template Properties Object tag its not getting saved when i try to execute it the command is getting erased. could any one let me know whether iam including the attribut in between the right object tag. i would really appreciate where i need to correct.
Thanks,
Padma

hi Padma,
if you want to include select filter value in enhanced menu, the tag is like following
<object>
         <param name="OWNER" value="SAP_BW"/>
         <param name="CMD" value="SET_PROPERTIES"/>
         <param name="TEMPLATE_ID" value=""/>
         <param name="MENU_SELECT_FILTER" value="E"/>
         TEMPLATE PROPERTIES
</object>
or you can set from web template properties, tab 'web item', section 'entries in context menu' -> 'select filter value', choose option 'enhanced menu'.
if you want to add menu, sample tag
<object> <param name="OWNER" value="SAP_BW"> <param name="CMD" value="SET_PROPERTIES"> <param name="TEMPLATE_ID" value="ZGDCONTEXTMENU"> <param name="CMENU_LABEL_1" value="Search_Google"> <param name="CMENU_FUNCTION_1" value="myMenuProcessor"> <param name="CMENU_PARAMETER_1" value="1"> <param name="CMENU_CELL_TYPE_1" value="CHARACTERISTIC_VALUE"> <param name="CMENU_FILTER_1" value="0D_SOLD_TO"> <param name="CMENU_VISIBILITY_1" value="X"> <param name="CMENU_POSITION_1" value="BOTTOM"> <param name="CMENU_LABEL_2" value="Help@SAP"> <param name="CMENU_FUNCTION_2" value="myMenuProcessor"> <param name="CMENU_PARAMETER_2" value="2"> <param name="CMENU_CELL_TYPE_2" value=""> <param name="CMENU_FILTER_2" value=""> <param name="CMENU_VISIBILITY_2" value="X"> <param name="CMENU_POSITION_2" value="BOTTOM"> TEMPLATE PROPERTIES </object>
hope this helps.

Context Menu in WAD - disable the data entry active entries

Hi,
I have the following problem. We created an input ready query and brought this query via WAD into the portal. Inside the Web Template we have a SAVE Button and a Button activation the Data Entry possibility. Now when executing the Web Template, the user can save the data via the context menu (we have the steps "Data Entry Active -> Active | Save Changed Data | Reset Changed Data | Update ). Now we want to suppress these funcitonality, because using the SAVE button the systems starts a planning sequence for checking entries and a process chain with special funcition. The users must use the button, because the save function in the context menu does not execute the planning functions.
Maintaining the Web Template via WAD I don't have the possibility to disable these menu entries. If I disable all menu entries in the context menu web item, executing the Web Template displays only the Data Entry Active Menu . How can I suppress these special entries of the context menu, because I want to use other entries of the context menu and I don't want to suppress the context menu in total (I know that this is possible.)
Thanks in advance.
Juergen

Hi,
we have the same problem. I have found the following solution:
Use the following parameters for the context menu item to suppress the data entry active entries.
                <bi:CONTEXT_MENU_ITEM name="CONTEXT_MENU_ITEM_1" designheight="70" designwidth="300" >
                    <bi:MENU_CELL_LOCKING value="" />
                    <bi:MENU_VALUE_RESET value="" />
                    <bi:MENU_DATA_ENTRY_MODE value="" />
                    <bi:MENU_REFRESH_DATA value="" />
                    <bi:MENU_SAVE_DATA value="" />
                    <bi:MENU_RESET_DATA value="" />
                </bi:CONTEXT_MENU_ITEM>
It works for us.

Context menu in WAD not working (web element installed)

Hi,
I'm working on a web template and I'm trying to use the context menu (web element for context menu is in the template, and there should be options available for the context menu). No matter how hard I push my right mouse button, nothing happens? Does anybody has any idea why?

O.K. don't use google chrome seems to be the answer.

Precalculated data and context menu

Hi all,
Ever since I started using pre-calculated data in my WAD report, the basic context menu and enhanced context menu (with all standard sap options like 'export to excel') has disappeared.
Any suggestions on how to bring it back?
I am on BW3.5.
Many Thanks in advance.

Hi,
One possibility could be the read mode on the web template.
Check the setting "Read Mode For Data" on the Web Template in the WAD.
If it set to "Precalculated Data - STORED" or "Precalculated Data, If it exists - Hybrid" you won't be able to see the context menus" as it reads from pre-calculated data.

but I would like to see Broadcast to email and Broadcast to PDF as well
Can someone let me know how I Can enhance the context menu to exclude Broadcast to Portal
thanks

Vaidya,
It is extremely tough working with WAD7.0 on customization - I found it a minefield of XHTML and other components - you can look at adding a script itam and change the javascript - I do remember that in 3.x you could customize the context menu using plain javascript - and in all likelihood hoping that this has not changed - add a script item to change the context menu at runtime instead - might work....

WAD difference context menu command EXPORT

Hi all,
I am wondering which is the difference between the WAD context menu command "Export to Excel" (MENU_EXPORT_TO_XLS) and the standard command EXPORT with format XLS used on a button.
On clients without BEx (Web front end only) a user could use the context menu command, but when using a button with standard command EXPORT (format XLS) it´s not working well. A window opens and an excel sheet with data is shown, but you cannot edit any data cell in standard Excel way. You have to save the worksheet and reopen it to edit any cell.
Any ideas?
best regards
ARNE

Hi,
Exporting the report through Excel can be done in two ways as you said.
One is through Context menu and other one through the Button.Both does the same job.
After exporting into Excel,you can use Excel options and save it locally.

How to enhance the context menu in Web Applications - BW 7.0

We have to enhance the context menu of several Web Applications and,
initially, we based our solution on the paper "How to enhance the
context menu of Web Applications", from June, 2002, but the solution
described on the paper refers to the BW version 3.0 and we need the
solution for the BW version 7.0. The technical content described on the
paper, version 3.0, is very different from the content of the version
7.0, used by us. Is this feature available for the version 7.0?

Hi,
did you find a solution already?
Thanks,

Hi Jay
Web items and HTML elements (for example, tables, texts, and images) that you insert into a Web template, as well as the Web template itself, have a context menu. This context menu has context-sensitive menu entries that you can use to call various Web Application Designer functions. You can, for example, use the context menu to save a Web item (for which you have specified properties by using the parameters) as a reusable Web item, call the properties dialog box for this Web item, copy the Web item and paste it into another Web template, or delete the Web item from the Web template.

Can context menues be altered/enhanced when using FM REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY

Dear ABAPers,
as I understood it I would need to have access to the instance of class CL_CTMENU and its method ADD_FUNCTION in order to enhance the standard context menu that I get when I right-click into an ALV-Grid. Am I right that this is not possible when I'm using the FM REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY ?
Or is there a way to add my own functions to the context menu when using the FM ?
Thanks in advance for your help
Andreas

WAD: Changing context menu headings

Hi
Is there any way to change the headings of the context menu menu items? On a custom template, we have disabled broadcasting but not exporting to excel. The Export to Excel function sits within the 'Broadcast and Export' context menu - I'd quite like to change this to just 'Export'.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks
Trish
