Passing dynamic parameter to BEx Web from Visual Composer application

Hi Experts,
I have got a table with brand name with hierarchy node, brand key and when the user selects a row on the table it should display detail data on the BEx Web. To do this, I have done the following;
- Added a button to the Action Toolbar of the Table
- Added an HTML view to the design time as well as a Data Store
- Created a field in the Data Store called u201Cselectionu201D
- Map from the table containing the 'Select' button to both the Data Store and the HTML view
- Used the custom action u201CSelectu201D to write a value u201C3u201D to the u201Cselectionu201D field of the DataStore
- Set the system acion (Event Name) 'select' to set a URL for the HTML view
- Set the URL Assinged Value = 'http://sapbid001:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.sap.pct!2fplatform_add_ons!2fcom.sap.ip.bi!2fiViews!2fcom.sap.ip.bi.bex?&QUERY=ZPIP_BACKORD_DETAILS&FILTER_IOBJNM=0CUST_GROUP&FILTER_NODE_IOBJNM=0HIER_NODE&FILTER_VALUE='&@Brand_key&''
It opens the query ZPIP_BACKORD_DETAILS for all brands and it's passing right brand key to it as well. But the dilema is the query is not filtering according to the parameter passed to it.
Could you please suggest me what steps I need to follow in order to resolve the issue?
Thanks.

Hello Bhai,
Could you tell me how did you solve your issue? because i would like to doing same things.. but filter doesnt work...
Thanks in advance

Passing dynamic parameter to stored procedure from CR formula?

Dear all,
I need to insert in some textboxes the right string based on the desired Language Code.
I crated a stored procedure in my db.
CREATE PROCEDURE MY_GET_TRANSLATION
     @TextID nvarchar(8),
     @LangCode int
This parameters are used as keys to get the Trans field.
I created a workshop formula: GetTranslation
Please, can someone suggest the correct statement to call my MY_GET_TRANSLATION stored procedure passing parameters?
I would like to call the GetTranslation formula from all my textboxes, passing the specific TextID value
and visualized the right translated string.
For example:
in my TEXT1 textbox, I would like to call the GetTranslation formula passing the parameters
TextID = "T000001"
and
LangCode = 13    (Italian language)
How can pass dynamic parameters to a formula?

Dear Jason,
I'm trying to modify a SAP B1 CR marketing report.
This CR marketing document is called by SAP B1 automatically passing the Document Number and Document Type.
The report uses the right SAP B1 tables to read the information of the header and rows of the document.
The language of the document is contained in a field of the header table
{MyMarketingDocTable.LanguageID}
I created a user table named "MyTranslationTable" where I added some strings in different langiages.
For example:
TexiID            TextString              LangID
T00001          Delivery                          8
T00001          Consegna                     13       (Italian translation)
T00002          Invoice                           8
T00002          Fattura                         13       (Italian translation)
In the header of the report I'd like, for example, to visualise the string "Consegna" if my document is a delivery in italian language.
I'd like to implement this method to translate all the textboxes (header, comments, etc.) based on the languageID of my document.
For each textboxes, in the CR designer statically I know what TextID I want to visualized but dinamically I need to pass to my stored procedure the right language. I'd like my report automatically gets the language at run-time. I don't want that when I press the Print-preview button in SAP B1, the report asks to prompt the languageID.
It already read the DocNum and DocType and it already filter the SAP B1 tables basing on the DocNum and DocType of the document. In this way it reads the right row in the SAP B1 table and in this way I can read all the fields of this row (also the languageID of the actual document).

Passing a range of dates from Visual Composer 7.0 to Bex Analyzer

Dear Experts,
         I created a button in my Visual Composer model that has the following settings:
System action: Hyperlink
Apply to: Self
Hyperlink address: "...QUERY=BMMSEG_C01_SAS_Q0001&BI_COMMAND_1-BI_COMMAND_TYPE=SET_SELECTION_STATE&BI_COMMAND_1-TARGET_DATA_PROVIDER_REF_LIST-TARGET_DATA_PROVIDER_REF_1=DP_1&BI_COMMAND_1-CHARACTERISTICS_SELECTIONS-CHARACTERISTIC_SELECTIONS_1-CHARACTERISTIC=MBUDAT&BI_COMMAND_1-CHARACTERISTICS_SELECTIONS-CHARACTERISTIC_SELECTIONS_1-SELECTIONS-SELECTION_1-SELECTION_INPUT_STRING=08/22/2006;08/28/2006"
        Basically, what I need is to pass a range of dates from Visual Composer to Bex Analyzer on the characteristic "MBUDAT". However, it only brings back the data with those specific dates, not the range.
      I don't think this is the correct syntax to pass in a range value: 08/22/2006;08/28/2006 Please advise how should I do it.
Thank you in advance,
Kevin

Hi J GOEL,
       Thank you for your quick response. I created a date range variable ZPSTDAT, and then I passed in the oncatenated value to my Bex query (for this example, let says the From date is 08/22/2006, and the To date is 08/28/2006 ).
      Here's what I passed in into the url:
...QUERY= BMMSEG_C01_SAS_Q0001
&BI_COMMAND_1-BI_COMMAND_TYPE=SET_SELECTION_STATE
&BI_COMMAND_1-TARGET_DATA_PROVIDER_REF_LIST-TARGET_DATA_PROVIDER_REF_1=DP_1
&BI_COMMAND_1-CHARACTERISTICS_SELECTIONS-CHARACTERISTIC_SELECTIONS_1-CHARACTERISTIC= ZPSTDAT
&BI_COMMAND_1-CHARACTERISTICS_SELECTIONS-CHARACTERISTIC_SELECTIONS_1-SELECTIONS-SELECTION_1-SELECTION_INPUT_STRING= 08/22/2006:08/28/2006
   However, it returns all the records, so it seems like it doesn't even accept the range value that I passed into the Bex. Do you mind to please show me the url you have that pass in the date range. I just need to see the date range part, not the entire url.
Thanks,
Kevin

How can we use C# to read dynamic parameter's value list from .rpt?

I'm using Cystal Report 2008. We know starting from CR XI we can create dynamic parameters, the list of items of this kind of parameter are fetching from database. So in general the SQLs to get the list of values for dynamic parameters are stored in the .rpt.
In Crystal Report Designer, if I preview a report with dynamic parameters, it will first query the database and then show the input dialog with list of values from database for user to choose. My question is can we implement the same thing by our C# code? I'm planning to use C# code to read this dynamic parameter's value list from .rpt and render them on the web page. Then pass back the user selected values to the .rpt to run the report after user make the choice. I didn't find any APIs can do this. Is it possible?
Thanks in advance!!

Hi,
Can you explain a bit in detail, I have similar scenario. I am using the following code but not getting the Column name for dynamic parameter list.
foreach (ParameterFieldDefinition prm
                          in reportDocument.DataDefinition.ParameterFields)
                try
                    string vParameterFieldName;
                    *vParameterFieldName = prm.ParameterFieldName.ToString();*

The following kludge works for me:
public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm actionForm,
    HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response )
    throws IOException, ServletException {
    // select the view
    ActionForward actionForward = mapping.findForward("foo.bar");
    ActionForward newActionForward = new ActionForward(actionForward);
    newActionForward.setPath(actionForward.getPath() + "?id=" + id);
    return newActionForward;
}

1) load this file in BI by ETL, for example on DSO object and then you can create a bex query to retrive the data
2) if you want display the content of this file , you can use KM.

How export data in Excel From Visual Composer

Hay everybody,
I would like to export my data result from Visual Composer to Excel. I've tried with an export data buton, but the exported file has a very bad format in Excel. I've tried an hyperlink buton which contain the Reptname data of the query too, but I can't keep my filters. This second solution can be nice for the format. If anyone knows how I can keep my filters, I would be fine.
Thanks

I did not get solution by using BW 3.5 , can we export data to Excel ? I am refering

Default Value in Numeric Input Field in Visual Composer Application

Hi All,
I have developed a visual composer application which has a numeric input field for Hours.
It is mapped to a backend module.
We are using portal 7.31
The problem is that the deafult value of this input field is "0", but the rquirement is to display as "0.0"
The functionality has been tested with input values in decimals and works fine. The problem is when the screen first populates, that field should show "0.0" .
Please advise.
Thanks

Hi Soumya Chanda,
I don't know of an agreeable way around it. You could have a textual input, but then it doesn't have the numeric control behavior, plus you need to handle incorrect typing (alphanumeric notes).
Sorry!

Very similar to how its done in NWDS.

How to deploy Visual composer applications and set up the server

Hi ,
I have SAP Netweaver developer studio client installed on my Laptop and I can use it to create VC applications but I cannot visualise the applications since I don't have server.
Is there a server that I can install and configure? and what else do I need before I can successfully deploy visual composer applications.
thanks

Hi Bhat,
Please ping server whether it is reachable or not.
Please enter IP and host name in the host file (Start>>Drivers>>etc>>host file)
Then enter host and instance number in NWDS. then open server view through open perspective, it will show you whether server is up or not.
Hope this will helps you.

Can Visual Composer applications only be created and deployed on EP?

We are working with Visual Composer on our Enterprise Portal box and I like it a lot. However, our company is investigating Microsoft Sharepoint as a possible candidate for Portals. This could mean that we are not going to use EP. I would like to know if it is possible to create and deploy Visual Composer applications if we don't have EP installed.
As VC is dedicated SAP technology I don't think this can work but I want to be be 100 % sure. Maybe there are other ways to run VC in a sharepoint portal that I don't know off?

Angelique Heutinck

Hi Angelique,
You need the SAP Enterprise Portal to run Visual Composer.
In the VC you create pages and iviews that need the enterprise portal services to run.
"... Visual Composer operates on top of the SAP NetWeaver portal, utilizing the portals connector-framework interfaces to enable access to a range of data services, including SAP and third-party enterprise systems. In addition to accessing mySAP ERP systems, users can access SAP Business Warehouse and any open/JDBC stored procedures..."
