Navigational Attribute as Text Element

Hi...
I have a report which shows list of Titles in the first column and the corresponding amounts based on several account and profit center restrictions in the further columns.
Titles basically are movie names.
Titles have navigational attributes like Video Release Date, Theatrical Release Date. These navigational attributes can be displayed in the report. But, the user doesn't want to display them in the report. He wants them to display them as the text elements.
As we are neither using a filter nor variable on these navigational attributes, these are not being shown as text elements.
Is there any way, I could show these navigational attributes for a given title as text elements?
Thanks,
Sai.

Ok, let's make this simple. I have a Title: 9381780, which has navigational attribute, Theatrical Release Date: 01/09/2004.
In my query definition, I have this title restricted by this value 9381780 and the navigational attribute in the rows panel.
Now, the query displays me the both the Title and it's navigational attribute as columns in the report.
But, if u see the text elements, I see only Title: 9381780, because it's a filter.
I cannot see the navigational attribute, Theatrical Release Date: 01/09/2004 in the text elements because it is neither a filter nor a variable.
I want to display this navigational attribute, Theatrical Release Date: 01/09/2004 in as a text element.
Hope I made it clear.
Thanks,
Sai.

How to change general attribute of text element

hi
who now how to change general attribute of text element on screen dinamically? I wish to change text value dinamically for example.

Hi Denis,
I am not too sure on what you want.
If you require that the text value be different based on some conditions you can declare as many text elements as conditions and call the relevant text element.
But I dont think that you can assign dynamic texts to a single text element.

Web Application: Display attribute in text element

Dear all,
we want to display an display attribute (0RESP_PERS as of 0COSTCENTER) in the header area of an web application. Therefore I tried to use an text element. I'm able to display the cost center itself, but haven't found the opportunity to display the related responsible person.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Daniel

Hallo Daniel
were you able to solve your problem?
I have the same requirement - display the cost center owner (attribute) of a cost center (characteristic) in a web template. I'm using NW2004s with the BI 7.0 front end tools.
Thanks in advance.

Font attributes of a text element in a smartform

Hi Folks,
I have a text element in a smartform for whic I am using a Smartstyle to set the font size,style etc.
In the text editor I have it like this-
k1 Net Quantity:&itab-quantity&.
k1 is the paragraph format I had declared in the smartstyle with fontsize 14.
Net Quantity is hardcoded in the text editor.
Now I want to set a different font size only to the &itab-quantity&.How to achieve this.
Thanks,
K.Kiran.

Hi Folks,
Got the Solution,We can do it by declaring a character format with a different font size.
k1 Net Quantity: <c1>&itab-maktx&</>
c1 is the new character format with a font size that applied only to maktx if given the above way in the text editor.
Thanks,
K.Kiran.

How to see Navigation attribute in Report

Hi ,
I am working on BI7.0.
In my Query , material is a characteristic which has 3-4 Navigation attributes. But when I execute the report , I can only see Material data displayed (because only material is in the rows). I also want to see data of its attributes in report results. I dont have authorisation to change the query.
Also I am unable to open the Query in Local view (some connectivity issues).
Can you please suggest How I can drill-down those attributes.??
Also these attributes are not visible in free characteristics.
Thanks,
Su

Hi there,
To use the navegational attributes with drill down, they have to be available in either rows, columns or free characterisitic.
For that you have to edit the query. There's no other way.
But each navegational attribute is also a display attribute.
Therefore, you can after executing the query, right-click over material and select properties. You'll see a tab named attributes where you can add the avilable attributes to the left (so they will be displayed), and change the settings of each one of them (see only key, key and text, etc.), but you can't filter by any of those attributes, or do any drill down options over them. They are only display attributes.
Hope this helps.

E-Recruiting: New Text element on WebDynpro page of External candidate

Hi,
I have a requirement to add a new text element on the personal data tab of the candidate profile. I have tried this through application configuration method, but the existing Text elements are not sufficient to accomodate the text matter that i need to insert.
I want some additional elements where they can accomodate my new text.
Is there a possibility of doing this without making the compeonent a 'Z' one?
Thanks,
Suresh

Hi Suresh,
Yes there is one possibility to do this .After you accomodated the new text thru the component config and
if you are still left with the text which needs to be added then create an enhancement and add an text element and bind it to the attribute just below the text element required and in the modify view method of the view bind the text to the attribute.
All this has to be done thru enhancement in the std component.
Thanks & Regards,

Attributes are not displaying in Navigational Attributes area of DSO.

Hi Experts,
I have created a DSO and have included Info Objects 0SOLD_TO & 0SHIP_TO. In the Navigational Attributes area, its attributes are not getting displayed even though the attributes are in the info object.
What are the steps needed to perform for it to display there?
Waiting for your reply,
Thanks in advance,
With Kind Regards,
Shreeem

Hi Shreem,
If you want attributes of any master objects in navigational attributes section, you have make them navigational attributes while defining base info object.
Please follow the below steps.
1) goto RSA1, search for 0SOLD_TO & 0SHIP_TO info objects and open them
2) goto edit mode of info object and goto attributes section.
3) here you will find for every object "DIS" --- this means these attributes are display attributes.
4) If you want to change any attribute to NAV, then click on "Pencil Mark".
5) Now you can see text NAV instead of DIS for that attribute.
activate the info object and goto DSO, now you will see that attribute in navigational attribute folder.

Venkatesh

Text Element in SAP-Script and Box

Hi Gurus
Q1.what is the meaning of text element's in sap-script.e.g.
/E INSPECTION_STATION_INFO
/E SAMPLE_INFO
/E PHYS_SAMPLES_HEADLINE..
I have to use these elements in my script.i am not able to understand what does it mean?
Q2.how we can draw a Tabular format in Script?
Q3.How we can draw Box?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Text Elements
You can define text elements (window texts) for each window. On the Form: Request screen, choose Edit ® Text elements.
The print program accesses text elements by name, formats them and prints them in the respective window. That is, the program can decide which text elements should be printed in a particular window. It calls these text elements by name to print them. You must therefore change text element names in the print program if you make any changes to text element names in a form.
In the layout of a text element, you can use only the paragraph and character formats defined in the form.
Example of a text element in an order confirmation:
/E ITEM_LINE
IL &VBDPA-POSNR&,,&VBDPA-MATNR&,,&VBDPA-ARKTX&
/ &'Customerarticlenumber 'VBDPA-IDNKD' '&&'Position
/ 'VBDPA-POSEX&
This example shows a section of a main window of a form, with an item line of an order confirmation. The /E in the tag column is used to identify the text as a text element, ITEM_LINE is the name of the text element.
Default Text Element
At the start of a window, you can define a text element without the /E command in the paragraph format column. This text is always printed at the start of the window. It is not necessary to insert this text explicitly via a print program.

Boxes:
Use the following code
/: BOX XPOS 1 MM YPOS 2 MM WIDTH 20 MM HEIGHT 40 MM FRAME 10 TW.
Box is the command used for printing box in script.
XPOS - x- axis position
ypos - y axis position

Hi All,
The issue is resolved. Making display as Long text at Infoobject level and at Query display level was not working. Hence I tried to change the display at Multiprovider level as shown below. This fixed the issue.
Right click Navigational attribute -> Provider specific properties
Made the display as Long text.
This setting resolved the problem.
Thanks for help and replies.

Hi
Text elements in SAPscript are the individual text components of a form. In the different windows, you can define text elements with different attributes. For printout, the print program accesses them. Text elements can also contain variables (symbols) and SAPscript control statements.
In simple words, Text Elements are the only way to transfer the data from report program to FORM using WRITE _FORM FM.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/d6/0db38b494511d182b70000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
You can define the text elements in sap script to group the texts that you want to display...like a condition..
Ex..
/E TEXT1
P1 This is a first text element..
Then use WRITE_FORM function module to call the text element
CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
ELEMENT = 'TEXT1'.
You can also call the write_form function module within a loop..

Showing navigation attributes in the same column of a query

Hi,
I would like to know if there is a way to define a query such that TWO navigation attributes that reference the same underlying characteristic can be displayed in the SAME column rather than TWO separate columns.
I will describe an example scenario to clarify the requirement. We are using a BI Content InfoCube (0COOM_C02) that has the navigation attributes 0COSTCENTER__0PROFIT_CTR and 0WBS_ELEMT__PROFIT_CTR activated. Both of these attributes reference the characteristic 0PROFIT_CTR. The InfoCube contains transaction data for Cost Centres and WBS Elements.
The requirement is to define a query that summarizes the data by profit centre. At the moment, in order to combine Cost Centre and WBS (Project) data in the same query by Profit Centre, both navigation attributes need to be selected, resulting in the following output:
0COSTCENTER__0PROFIT_CTR......0WBS_ELEMT__PROFIT_CTR......AMOUNT
PC01...............................................Not assigned...................................10,000
PC02...............................................Not assigned...................................20,000
PC03...............................................Not assigned...................................12,000
PC04...............................................Not assigned....................................2,000
Not Assigned....................................PC02..............................................5,000
Not Assigned....................................PC03..............................................8,000
Not Assigned....................................PC05..............................................30,000
Not Assigned....................................PC06..............................................50,000
However, the desired result is to display only one profit centre column using the two profit centre navigation attributes as shown below:
PROFIT CENTRE......AMOUNT
PC01..........................10,000
PC02..........................25,000
PC03..........................20,000
PC04............................2,000
PC05..........................30,000
PC06..........................50,000
Is there a way to achieve the above result using the two navigation attributes only, without having to add 0PROFIT_CTR as a characteristic to the InfoCube?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mustafa.

Hi Mustafa,
You have to use enhancement RSR00001 in the transaction CMOD to start developing your code.
For more information how the customer exit variables are processed, refer to the documentation:

Difference between drill down and filter using navigation attributes?

hi all,
can anyone let me know the difference between filter and drilldown options using navigational attributes. pls explain with examples for filter and drill down and how it varies.
thanxs
haritha

Jst to add up with an example :
Say you have a cost center variance analysis report with cost elements in the filter. ( not present in the default report result )
Filter - You can right click on a particular cost center & say " Keep Filter Value " - it will result in only showing that cost center & you can wish to select other filter value doing " Select Filter Value ".
Drill Down - If u wish to see the cost elements associated with cost centers you can right click on Cost Center & do " Drill Down To - Cost Element " or Drill Across.

Linking a dataset to text elements

Hello,
I have a page with two regions: for my report and for changing a data set. The query definition of the report has two joins for the tables "person", "product" and "distribution".
Below the report there is another region. In this region there are text elements for creating a new data set or for editing a data set which you chose in the report.
In the tab "report attributes" I have defined a link for the table column "person_id" which directs to the text element "PersonID" in the second region. When you click on "person_id" in the report, the values of the columns of the data set in the report should be shown in the corresponding text fields below. For each text field I have defined the column name as data source.
Unfortunately when I click"person_id" only the PersonID is shown in the text fields.
The other fields remain empty.

How to identify display and navigational attributes in report?

To all of thanks to be in SDN, plz send tue clarifications.....?
Q. How to identify display and navigational attributes in report? is there any naming convension differences for both of them?

This works fine for "powerusers", but for informational users you have to create your own naming conventions for all navigational attributes which are not unique. For example 0COUNTRY may be a navigational attribute of 0CUSTOMER, OSOLD-TO, 0SHIP-TO, 0BILLTOPRTY, 0PAYER. To make the text clear for your users in reports name it CS Country, SO Country, SH Country, BT country, ... as 0COUNTRY could also be a characteristic from the document.
This means quiet some work especially if you have a multilingual installation, but the information users will be very thankful.
hope this helps
