Getting Drop Down list for a field in portal based on the values in R/3

Hi,
Presently we were customizing the ESS>>Family Members/Dependants iview in Portal. Because of the design requirement, in R/3 we have added some custom field for infotype 21 (Family Member details Infotype). We have to display these field on portal in Family Member Iview.
However for these custom fields i am not able to get the drop down list with all the possible values description(F4 help ) in portal unlike the standard SAP fields.
I am able to display the codes but the description is not coming up for the fields. However for standard SAP field, only description comes.
For this I tried to attach the search help to the data element and also assigned a check table to the data element in R/3. But still I am not getting the description in the drop down.
So how can I get the description and only the description in the drop down.
Thanks
Namit

Hi,
When you run the Search hep is it giving the description or not
You have to create the serarch help with both the fieldname and its description field then we cna the values. Or
Try to mantain the text table for this field and get the data.
Get the valeusinto drop drown with this table Or create the SearchHelp for this text table

How to set a default value for a drop down list box and then apply cascading based on the default value in Infopath 2010.

Hello Everyone
I have two drop downs. Both are coming from look up fields from two lists. i want to set a default value(first list item) for the first drop down list box and then apply cascading based on the default value for the next drop down list box. I found one article(http://www.bizsupportonline.net/infopath2010/display-first-item-drop-down-list-box-infopath-2010.htm)
where in i can set a default value but i can't apply cascading based on that default value. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

How to add drop down list for query manager report in sap business one

Hi Every one,
I need drop down list for parameter selection in sap business one Query Manager.I have two Parameters 'Sales Order','Invoice'.
Please suggest.
Thanks and Regards
DEV

Hi,
you need to use this :
/*select from [dbo].[OINV] T2*/
DECLARE @Invoice varchar(100)
/*where*/
set @Invoice =/* T2.DocNum */N'[%2]'
you can change the tables and the parameter number but you have to write it exactly that way.
when you run the query within the SBO you will get list of objects ( in this case list of invoices)
hope it was helpful

How can i add a drop down list to a fields using BHTML( displaying on its)

Please help me to add a drop down list to a field while displaying on ITS using BHTML or javscript. List should show all the values from value table or search help.

Hi Sandeep,
in ABAP, read the table (keys and values) and write it to the ITS context, e.g. with field names KEY and VALUE.
On the ITS template, write code like this:
`if (KEY.dim > 1);
   repeat with i from 1 to KEY.dim;
    keys1[ i ] = KEY[ i ];
    contents1[ i ] = VALUE[ i ];
    if (KEY[ i ] == SELECTED_KEY);
     selIndex = i;
    end;
   end,
   SAP_TemplatePulldownField("field1", fieldLabel=#label, name="KEY", key="keys1", content="contents1", selIndex=selIndex);
end`
(I had to add blanks between the brackets to get the code displayed correctly here.)
HTH & best regards,

Custom drop down list for the filter for BEX report

Hi, all:
I am writing a query for a BEX report that prompts the user to enter a value for a field "GL account". I would like to have the user select from a limited number of GL options rather than have the whole Chart of accounts show up. Is there a way to make a "custom" drop down list for the filter?
Thanks!
Jenny

You need to make your GL account info object as an authorization object. And in the info object ,for BEx you need to select the option "only authorized values".
Create an analyis authorization on gl account and assign the restricted set of GL accounts to the user. Asign this analysis authorization to the user.In the query restrict this infoobject with an authorization variable. This would solve your purpose.user would be able to see only a selected set of GL accounts for which he is authorized.

Can I copy and paste a drop down list into another field?

Can I copy and paste a drop down list into another field?

You don't have to create a PDF, but it would be helpful to know what, exactly, you want to do with the ppt.
You can export as a PDF which will keep vectors and text as PostScript (crisp) elements.
You can also Save As from ppt in a variety of formats such as PNG or TIFF.
These rasterize all the vectors and text, but are very useful if you're laying out a miniature gallery of the powerpoint presentation.
However, if you want to make the InDesign file a replica of the ppt slides for print, PDF is probably the best way to go.

Lotus Notes Missing in Drop Down List for Calendar Synch

Hello there,
   A) I am attempting to synch my blackberry tour with my calendar in Lotus Notes 8.5.2. I was able to previously synch my calendar when I had Lotus Notes 8.5.1, but since our upgrade to 8.5.2, I get an error saying it could not find a supported version of Lotus Notes.
B) When I try to go in and configure the organizer section of the desktop software, there is no option for the drop down list for Lotus Notes. I have tried uninstalling, rebooting and then reinstalling (based on info from other posts), but none of that seems to work. I have checked and all the connectors are there, but for some reason, they are not being recognized. Is there some specific key or file that intellisynch is looking for to know that Lotus Notes is installed on the machine?
Now, I am assuming A&B are symptoms of a common problem, but I am at a loss as to how to move forward. Any ideas on how I can get this software to recognize Lotus Notes? I appreciate any help you can give.
Thanks,
Rick

Drop down lists populating text fields on a page different from the dropdown.

Hello all,
I have a form with several pages. The first page contains a number of drop down lists. These drop down lists, when an option is chosen, is to populate a text field on another page. I can get the drop down list to populate the text field when it is on the same page, but as soon as I move the text field to another page, the script doesn't work. Can anyone offer a solution? I've used javascript on change for the scripts.

Thanks Paul,
I have been able to solve the drop down list question, thanks to your help.
I have another question that involves locking specific fields in a four page form which contains approximately 100 fields that need to be locked before the end user completes the remaining fields. How do I lock individual subforms so that the remaining fields remain open and editable? The final version of the form, will have at least 200 fields in it that will also need to be locked in sections.
I can lock all the fields using the lock all fields button, but have been unable to make it work for just part of the form.
I've emailed the draft form. It would be really helpful if I had one example of a locked subform on the form I'm struggling with.
Thanks for your help.

Creating drop-down list for prodname element in metadata causes errors

Frame 11
DITA 1.2
Due to restrictions beyond our control, we must use absurdly long product names. Therefore I want to use drop-down lists to make it easier for the authors to select a <prodname> in the metadata.
What I did:
1. In metaDecl.eddmod.fm, I created a new attribute and named it prod.
    a. I made it the Choice, and Required.
    b. The Choices currently are just Internal and RTVI for testing purposes. I'll put the absurdly long ones in when I have it working.
    c. I have a Prefix rule of: In all contexts Prefix: Product Name: <$attribute[prod]>
2. I imported metaDecl.eddmod.fm to all of these EDDs:
    In the base EDD folder:
basemap.edd.fm
basetopic.edd.fm
map.eddmod.fm
topic.eddmod.fm
   In the technicalContent EDD folder:
concept.edd.fm
ditabase.edd.fm
generalTask.edd.fm
glossentry.edd.fm
glossgroup.edd.fm
reference.edd.fm
task.edd.fm
topic.edd.fm
3. I imported the element definitions into all of the following:
ChapterOutputTpl.fm
basemap.template.fm
basetopic.template.fm
basetopic.template.fm
topic.template.fm
generalTask.template.fm
glossentry.template.fm
glossgroup.template.fm
map.template.fm
ditabase.template.fm
reference.template.fm
concept.template.fm
task.template.fm
4. I imported the elememted definitions from task.template.fm into my test document (yes, it is a task topic).
What happened:
I get the following error message in the console:
XML Parser Messages (Document Instance)
Error at file H:\DITA_Westminster\Procedures - Our DITA\Inserting_Product_Names_Versions_In_Metadata\InsertingProductNamesAndVersionsInMetad ata.dita.82F, line 28, char 49, Message: Attribute 'prod' is not declared for element 'prodname'
Error at line 28, char 71, Message: Not enough elements to match content model '(prodname,vrmlist,((brand|component|featnum|platform|prognum|series))*)'
What I did next:
1. I removed all elements from the general rule of <prodinfo> with the exception of <prodname>. <prodinfo) is the one that had prodname, vrmlist, (brand|component|featnum|platform|prognum|series) in the general rule. I also did a thorough search to ensure that no other element had this same list of element in the general rule. I couldn't find any.
2. I did the import to the EDDs and templates thing again.
3. I got the same error message again. <sigh />
Question:
Why am I still getting those 2 error messages? They are driving me crazy.
Marsha

Alex Gorly and Matt Sullivan solved one of my issues above:
Message: Attribute 'prod' is not declared for element 'prodname'
I'm still stumpled on the other one:
Message: Not enough elements to match content model '(prodname,vrmlist,((brand|component|featnum|platform|prognum|series) )*)'
As stated above, I've even removed everything from the general rule of <prodinfo> except prodname and I'm still getting the same error. I've searched everywhere for this general rule and <prodinfo> is the only place I can find it.
What I really want is: (prodname), (vrmlist)?, (brand | component | featnum | platform | prognum | series)*
so that vrmlist is optional.
No matter what I do, unless I include a vrmlist, I get the above message. Currently, our CMS can't handle vrmlist but I don't want to remove it altogether because we may be replacing our CMS.
Help please!

Restricting the values in Drop Down list for ESS application

Hello Experts,
We are trying to restrict the values in the drop down list box for payment method field for direct deposit iview.
Here Payment is the Zlsch field.
here we are trying to have only 3 vlaues in the drop down. Do I have to do it from java code or can this be restricted on the ECC side?
Plese let me know.
Thanks,
James.

James,
What you have to do is create a DropDown ByIndex element instead of by Key and create a context node PaymentMethodNode and a value attribute PaymentAttribute under it ....then write the following code in the wdDoInit() method as :
//Add whatever values you want in the DropDown
String[] priority_options= new String[]{"Payroll/Corp/Partner Check","Employee Payroll ACH(PPD)"};
          List ListOfPriorities = new ArrayList();
          for(int i=0;i<priority_options.length;i++)
               IPrivateDetailView.IPayment_MethodNodeElement pr= wdContext.createPayment_MethodNodeElement();
               pr.setPaymentAttribute(priority_options<i>);
               ListOfPriorities.add(pr);
          wdContext.nodePayment_MethodNode().bind(ListOfPriorities);
          for(int e=0;e<wdContext.nodePayment_MethodNode().size();++e)
               wdContext.nodePayment_MethodNode().setSelected(e,e>=0 && e<=1);
and then write the following code in wdDoModifyView() method:
IWDDropDownByIndex di =(IWDDropDownByIndex)view.getElement("DropDownByIndex");
         di.bindTexts("Payment_MethodNode.PaymentAttribute");
then create an Action and bind it to the onselect property of the DropDown and write the following code in the onAction method :
if(wdContext.currentPayment_MethodNodeElement().getPaymentAttribute().equalsIgnoreCase("Payroll/Corp/Partner Check"))
    wdContext.currentSelectedInfotypeElement().setZlsch("C");
    else
     wdContext.currentSelectedInfotypeElement().setZlsch("P");
I am sure it will work..
