Input help not showing up for columns in CATS regular application

I am using standard iView Time Entry in ESS available in EP7 ECC6.0.
the issue I am having is that there is no popup (input help) for columns 'Reason Code', 'Region' and 'OT Rsn'. But if I go into ECC6.0 t-code CAT2, the popups are available.
Any idea what may be causing this issue?

Suresh is right, You need to build your own search help with above table and implement the class
ie CL_XSS_CAT_VALUE_HELP* in se24

Need help in creating documents for Contacts in Oracle HRMS

We are trying to add documents to Contacts in Oracle HRMS. (11.5.10.2)
Navigation: Oracle HR Super User -> Fastpath -> Documents of Record
Search for a Contact -> Manage Documents of Record -> Create Document of Record.
In Document Information -> Type is mandatory field but the LOV is not returning any values.
The LOV works fine for both system defined and custom document types when trying to create documents for Employees or External Contractors.
But we would need to be able to add documents for Contacts also.
Please let us know if this expected functionality or if there is any setup that is needed.
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kiranmayi.

Which table stored description for field name

hi,
for example,
field name is LIFNR , description (vendor number),
which table stored this description (vendor number) for that field name(LIFNR) ?

1. From table DD03L, give your tablename and get all of its field names and corresponding data element names.
2. From table DD03T, get the description of each data element you have got in step 1.
3. Then Use Function Module DDIF_FIELDINFO_GET
DD02L : ALL SAP TABLE NAMES
DD02T : DESCRIPTION OF TABLE NAMES
DD03L : FIELDS IN A TABLE.
Check the below link for more information.

Please let me know how can it be achieved.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks,
Hemanth

The easiest way to do this, and it could be done in a few minutes, would be to move to a currently supported version of Oracle, 11gR1 or 11gR2, where we have the PIVOT and UNPIVOT operators.
In the desupported version you have the best choice is to hit http://asktom.oracle.com and look up the solution he published there some years ago.
I don't have the link so you can find it as fast as I can but look under "pivot" and "crosstab."

Description for value help field for custom infotype field

Hi,
I`ve got to include a field in custom infotype. This field has got a value help attached to it. The values to be displayed in the value help are stored in the domain of the field(in the dictionary).
The requirement is that once I select a value from the F4 help, the description for that value should be fetched and be dispalyed on the screen.
I`m using the FM "<b>AM_READ_TEXT_ON_DOMAIN_VALUE</b>" to read the description from the domain ,but unable to make it display it on the screen.
Can anyone suggest me as what should I do for displaying the description in the custom infotype screen.
Regards,
Farhana

Hi anji,
While using the "GET_DOMAIN_VALUES", I do get all the values from the domain. But I want only description to be displayed when I select a Value for that field.Kindly help out..
Eg:
1-Individual
2-Family
Then the description should be displayed as Family when I select the value 2 from the value help.
Regards,
Farhana.

I have deleted the app from my Fire and re-downloaded it but have the same error comes up. I have accessed the Words with Friends support both on my phone and their website but there is no live chat.

Oracle : ORA-12899: value too large for column

Hi Experts,
I am loading multibyte data from fixed width flat file to Oracle database(which is a utf8 characterset) via Informatica. I have set utf8 as characterset in both source and target definitions.
Source flat file data : MÃ¼nchener(this flat file data was loaded from external oracle database where data looks like Münchener)
When I load the data I am getting below error
ORA-12899: value too large for column "schema_name"."table"."column" (actual: 513, maximum: 512)
I know we can declare the data type as varchar2(512 char) instead of varchar2(512 byte). Please let me know the other solution to load multibyte data into target utf8 database.

You answered your own question and there isn't another solution. You need to increase that column.
alter table "schema_name"."table" ("column" varchar2(513)); ---Though you should increase it to be the max length that column will ever be. If you don't know pad it. Pad it high. Oracle is very good at handling the space with the varchar2 datatype.

Oracle 11g 64 bit - "Value too large for column" when setting Varchar2

Hello guys,
I have a machine running Oracle 11g - 64bits. And I have a table that contains a VARCHAR2(2000) field.
When I try to set the value of this field to a string that contains double byte characters, I get this error:
ORA-12899: value too large for column "QAPBG1220_11"."MYTABLE"."MYFIELD" (actual: 2433, maximum: 2000).
Although the value I'm setting is only 811 characters (€ sign).
The weird thing is that when I try to run the same query on another PC with Oracle 11g, 32 bits, It runs normally and the values are updated!!
Anyone has any idea about this? It's driving me crazy
Thanks in advance
Zahraa

On the 32 bit, this works fine. I get the record with the values 1 and 2000 euro signs.
On the 64 bits, there is one machine (oracle 11.2.0.1.0) that adds the row, but when I view it, the value shows as "????"
and another machine (oracle 11.1.0.7.0) that throws an error:
- "String Literal is too long" : if there are more than 1333 euro characters
- Value too large for column .... : if there are less than 1333 and more than 666 characters.
Any ideas?

Wizard for column/table description

Hi all ,
I'm using OBIEE 11g. In the admin tool i have 20 models and i want to set a description for each column and table/which is like tooltip in the analysis/. Does anybody knows a fast way or a wizard for this or i should go through all the tables and columns in the BMM ?
Thanks in advance,
Alexander.

Hey Alexander,
I did mine one by one but you can also generate a RPD UDML file and write a simple script to mass update or depending on your OBIEE version, I believe 11.1.1.6.2BP1 added MDS XML support. You can update the XML files. Other than that, its a One and One update.
Thanks,
