About using customized VO in OAFramework

<*REDACTED*>
Hi,
I customized VO in iProcurement to select additional columns but it seems
the standard VO is used instead of the customized at some times.
I confirmed this issue by HeapDump. When this issue occurs, the customized VO
didn't exist in the list of objects.
My questions are here..
1. Do you know any similar issue with this?
2. What kind of information should I gather to get further analysis about this?
I customized VO with the following steps.
- Created xml and java files with the new name and compiled that java files.
- Distributed them under $JAVA_TOP.
- Imported jpx with JPXImporter.
Thanks,
Keiko Tsukuta

Hi Gyan,
Thank you for your reply.
I checked "About this page" but the customized VO has been extended correctly.
Please see the files from the following links.
Here is the screen shot and the definition of that VO.
<internal URL's removed>
In addition, this issue occurs only some times for some reason.
How should I investigate this issue?
NOTE: You can see the customized VO files from the following link.

Question about How to Use Custom CellEditors

Hi:
I have been trying to implement something like this: I have a JPanel, and when you double-click a particular spot on it, I want a textbox to appear. Currently, I am implementing it by using an undecorated JDialog that contains a JTextField in it (such that the text field occupies all the space in the dialog, i.e. you can't even tell that there is a dialog). This seems like a hack to me.
Another alternative that I have been thinking about is using layered panes, and hiding the textfield below the jpanel, and only bringing it to the front when the user double-clicks.
Then, I stumbled onto custom celleditors. Now, it seems that everyone is using them in JTables, JLists, JComboBoxes, etc. and I was wondering if it is something that I can use with a JPanel.
Can anyone comment on the implementations I am considering, as well as using custom celleditors with a JPanel?
Thanks in advance,
LordKelvan

Still don't understand your requirement. Does the text field stay there or disappear after the data is entered? If it disappears, then how do you change the value, do you have to click on the exact same pixel again?
Maybe you could use a MouseListener and then display a JOptionPane or JDialog to prompt for the information. Or if you want to display a JTextField then add a JTextField to the panel and then when the user enters the data by using the enter key or by clicking elsewhere on the GUI you remove the text field from the panel.

Questions about Using APIs to import Bills and Routings - AND COSTS

Hi Forum - the following is a back-and-forth with a customer about use of APIs - Inventory developer suggested I post the question here. Note the 2nd question - and thanks for any assistance.
SR# 7332152.994 ALCOA
Instructions given to ct:
Q1 - Can I load the bill header and components at the same time?
You should be able to load the bill header and components at the same time. Customer loads bill and component data inserting enough "other" data for each so that the bill sequence id will be derived. For the component record, the assembly item, org and alternate_bom_designator values will be used by BMCOIN to derive the bill_sequence_id.
Example:
INSERT INTO BOM_BILL_OF_MTLS_INTERFACE
ORGANIZATION_CODE,
ITEM_NUMBER,
ALTERNATE_BOM_DESIGNATOR,
PROCESS_FLAG,
TRANSACTION_TYPE
VALUES
'M1',
'&PARENT_ITEM',
NULL,
'1',
'CREATE'
INSERT INTO BOM_INVENTORY_COMPS_INTERFACE b
ORGANIZATION_CODE,
ASSEMBLY_ITEM_NUMBER,
ALTERNATE_BOM_DESIGNATOR,
COMPONENT_ITEM_NUMBER,
OPERATION_SEQ_NUM,
COMPONENT_QUANTITY,
EFFECTIVITY_DATE,
PROCESS_FLAG,
TRANSACTION_TYPE
VALUES
'M1',
'&PARENT_ITEM',
NULL,
'&COMPONENT_ITEM',
1,
1,
trunc(SYSDATE),
1,
'CREATE'
Hi Aruna, some additional information that may be useful:
We can load/create the bill header and components at the same time using the scripts given (as above)
Required Data for Creating a Routing : assembly_item_id,
organization_id, routing_type, transaction_type, process_flag
And following scripts can be used to load routing header and operations equences.
INSERT INTO BOM_OP_ROUTINGS_INTERFACE
(assembly_item_id,
organization_id,
routing_type,
transaction_type,
process_flag)
VALUES (2255800,207,1,'Create',1);
INSERT INTO BOM_OP_SEQUENCES_INTERFACE
(assembly_item_id,
organization_id,
operation_seq_num,
Department_code,
effectivity_date,
transaction_type,
process_flag,
operation_description)
VALUES
(2255800,207,100,'ASSEMBLY',
to_date('24-FEB-2009'),'Create',1,
'Paint Wagon');
Q2: One more question, can an expense item can be added to the bill and can contribute the cost.
As there is a confusion of what I asked, below I am rephrasing my question
By an Expense Inventory Item, I mean an item that is just tracked for quantity only i.e.,Checking the attributes - Inventory Item, Stockable, Transactable under Inventory Tab and not checking the attribute - 'Inventory Asset Value'.
My question here is, For these Expense Inventory Items, What is the difference between having the 'Costing enabled' attribute turned ON as opposed to having it UNCHECKED
*Q3 I have tried to load the items and I could only load 1st level of components but could not load second level of bom at the same time.
While inserting I have inserted plan level too.
Please let me know if I have to do anything different to load second level.*
Thanks
James

Thinking about using Mac Mini's as desktops for 20 employee business. Pro's Vs. Con's

Thinking about using Mac Mini's as desktops for 20 employee business. Pro's Vs. Con's

Your best bet would be to buy a single 2012 MacMini Server model that you can use to manage the balance of the other machines. Either that or upgrade one of the MM's to OS X Yosemite Server . You can find information about the Server edition at:
https://www.apple.com/osx/server/
However I would STRONGLY recommend visiting your local Apple Store and ask to speak to their business specialist, they are trained to manage customer needs such as yours.
The major advantage of using Macs over any PC is the stability of OS X itself and the overall quality of support that you will never get with HP.

Tutorial: Creating, saving and re-using Custom Shapes

I've beeen experimenting with custom shapes for the last couple of days, and thought I'd share some of the tips and techniques I found.
First of all, what are custom shapes?
Well, they're vector objects. That means that they are not built out of millions of individual pixels (like images are), but rather they're a series of mathematical statements that describe how to draw a line from point to point to create the vector shape. This means that custom shapes are "resolution independent", and that they can be grossly shrunk or enlarged and still retain razor sharp edges, curves and corners.
What are custom shapes good for?
Pretty much anything where you want to use a good, sharp object. In particular, using a custom shape as a clipping mask for an image that's been placed as a Smart Object is an outstanding technique, and really shows off the power that PSE is capable of.
PSE comes with a lot of ready-to-use custom shapes for its Custom Shape tool, and there are probably hundreds of thousands available on the Web -- just search for "photoshop shapes". Typically, those shapes will be supplied as Adobe CSH (Custom SHape) files, and simply copying the CSH files into the
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\Presets\Custom Shapes"
directory will make them available for use with the Custom Shape tool.
Sooner or later, though, you'll get the itch to create your own custom shapes. Out of the box, PSE does not have the capability to let you create custom shapes and add them to the CSH files like the "big" Photoshop does, so we'll need to use a workaround: store your custom shapes as layers in a PSD file, and when you want to use them simply copy them into your image.
N.B.: To create custom shapes you'll have to use the reasonably priced Elements+ add-in:
http://elementsplus.net/
So, the procedure goes like this:
Create a new image, using the PSE defaults, and save it as "CustomShapes01.psd", keeping it open.
Open an image containing an object that you want to use as a custom shape.
Use any of the selection tools to make an accurate selection of the object:
In the Effects panel, use the Elements+...Paths effect and choose the Create New Path...From Current Selection:
Use the Elements+...Paths again, choosing "Convert to Shape", giving it a name and colour of your choosing. This will create a Shape Layer using that name.
Important: If your shape has "holes",
use the Shape Selection tool and click on the shape to select it. Then hit the "Combine" button in the Options Bar. This will combine all the individual shapes used to create the shape and its "holes" into one shape, and prevent beaucoup problems later.
Switch to the Move tool and drag the shape onto the tab of your "CustomShapes01.psd" image, keeping your mouse button pressed. That image will become activated and you can move your cursor onto the image itself and drop your shape onto it. Your PSD file will now have your custom shape as a shape layer:
Save that "CustomShapes01.psd" file.
You can repeat the process for as many custom shapes as you want, and they will each become a layer in the "CustomShapes01.psd" file.
To use your custom shape, open the "CustomShapes01.psd" file and your target image and do the drag and drop with the Move tool to copy the custom shape onto your target image.
I mentioned that using a custom shape as a clipping mask for an image placed as a Smart Object is a very powerful technique. It's powerful because the custom shape can be altered at any time and still keep its sharpness, and because the Smart Object can also be resized without becoming pixellated. Of course, that custom shape layer can have any number of layer styles applied to it and those layer styles will "follow" the shape if the shape is moved, resized or rotated.
Here are three examples of using the custom shapes as clipping masks for Smart Objects:
In this example, each custom shape is used as a clipping mask for an image Smart Object, as usual:
Here, one custom shape was used as a clipping mask for an image Smart Object and they were linked.
Then the shape and image were duplicated and moved, rotated and resized. Because of the linking, the Smart Object automatically kept its orientation and size relative to the custom shape throughout:
If you want to use custom shapes as a "combined" clipping mask, the procedure is a little more complicated because you need to get all your custom shapes on one shape layer.
So, after copying your shapes into the target image (as separate shape layers), use the Shape Selection tool to select one of the shapes. Using Edit...Cut will cut that shape layer to the Clipboard, and you can select one of the other shape layers and use Edit...Paste to paste the custom shape into that shape layer. Repeat as necessary, and you will get all of your custom shapes on one shape layer. Then use that single shape layer as your clipping mask:
The neat thing is that the individual shapes can be selected with the Shape Selection tool and independently moved, resized or rotated as necessary.
Enjoy!
Ken

Thanks, Michel.
I forgot to mention one point about copying shape layers into one shape layer: when you initially use the Shape Selection tool to select a shape for cutting, make sure the option for the Shape Selection tool is set to "Add to Selection".

When use custom authetication it shows some characters on screen after logo

Dear All,
I have developed a application and use custom authentication schema for that. It works fine on my local pc and then I have moved it to another pc (export and then import) it works fine on that as well.
Now I have moved it to the production server. When authentication failed it shows error message and stay in log on page. But when I provide the correct user name and password, then it shows multiple occurance of login url in page body.
Did anyone has any idea about this.
When authenticate success I get below output.

Using custom xslt file for mapping

I have a map using custom xsl. I deployed it to different enviroment. When my BTS application ran, it complained
There was a failure executing the receive pipeline: "WS.Pipeline.MsgTransformDebatchPipeline, WS.Pipeline, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c7f3bdebaae529db" Source: "MsgTransformDecoder" Receive Port: "WS_Debatch"
URI: "C:\TestData\WS\InternalInput\*_batch.xml" Reason: Could not find file 'C:\WS\BTS\WS.Map\BatchOrder_to_CanonicalBatchOrder.xsl'.
I have to create corresponding path and copy my xsl file there to make it work. Why?
I tried Microsoft.Samples.BizTalk.ExtendingMapper.OverridingMapXslt sample. I compiled and deployed it, then I modified OverridingMapXslt.xslt to OverridingMapXslt2.xslt. I dropped input file and there was no complaint about missing OverridingMapXslt.xslt.
I thought .xsl is treated like any other source code file and is compiled into the assembly at build time. Why I got this error?
Thanks in advance!!!

Unless you've compiled the .xsl into your custom component as a Resource, then yes, that exact path has to exist anywhere it will run.
However, as la Cour points out, a BizTalk Map has a Custom XSLT Path property that will take care of that for you.

Sorry, to reset firefox will require me to install a number of plug-ins.
All my settings were lost.
Luckely I created a backup using MozBackup.exe.
Some add-ons can easily be re-installed, but what about stuff like Acrobat PDF creator and Norton Vulnerability Protection. I think those add-ons are installed when an application is installed, so it would require me to re-install such applicatons.

JTable Renderer-Promblem when using custom renderer

Hi. i've just started studying Swing component.
So i'm about to ask for help to solve the problem during using custom TableCellRenderer.
Here is my own Renderer which extends JLable and implements TableCellRenderer
public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value,boolean isSelected,boolean hasFocus,int row,int column)
     if (isSelected) {
     setForeground(table.getSelectionForeground());
     super.setBackground(table.getSelectionBackground());
     else {
     setForeground(table.getForeground());
     setBackground(table.getBackground());
     JLabel right=new JLabel("LEFT");
     JLabel left=new JLabel("RIGHT");
     this.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
     this.add(left,BorderLayout.WEST);
     this.add(right,BorderLayout.EAST);
     return this;
note: There are 3 JLabel components. Two components are added to the component will be returned.
This code works fine.
but whenever try to resize the column display using above renderer, The " Text " runs in resizing.(making traces)
Please anybody try to run this code, show me some solution.
thank you

A renderer will have its getTableCellRendererComponent method called repeatedly, every time a cell is to be repainted, and its the renderer associated with that cell. Therefore, avoid doing things in this method that should only be done once, for example:
JLabel right=new JLabel("LEFT");
JLabel left=new JLabel("RIGHT");
this.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
this.add(left,BorderLayout.WEST);
this.add(right,BorderLayout.EAST);Can you do that in the renderer's constructor?

Using Customized group name fields in Live Office

Hello everybody,
I've created a Crystal Reports based on a BEx Query and including a costcenter hierarchy. Now I want to add this report in Excel sheet via Live Office. I did this according to the official HowTos provided by Ingo Hilgefort. Now I've following issue. When I choose the data for the selected fields in Live Office, I could manage to insert the Live Office object into my report but the display of the cost center hierarchy nodes doesn't comply with the display in Crystal Reports. There I've defined a group with a customized group name field (costcenter.medium description) Live Office seems to use only the costcenter node ID.

live office uses web services to authenticate (dswsbobje) which depends on a java app server for kerberos to be enabled to login with AD. Is Infoview working with AD? This would be required. I'm not sure about your other issues.

How do I...Mimic Replacement Path with Query using Customer Variable Exits?

Hello SDN:
We are on BW 3.5 SP16.
We are currently using a replacement path Query(RP) with variables
to populate a variable in another Query(T).
The problem we are having is with performance.
The entry of variables in replacement path Query(RP) is optional (This is necessary there cannot be required values)
When results from Replacement Path Query are small performance is fine. (e.g. 10 seconds)
When results from Replacement path query are large performance suffers. (e.g. 1+ minutes)
Users are free to leave the replacement path variables empty resulting in a large set of data to be replaced. This is the worst performance case.
We would like to discover a way to conditionally execute the replacement path query. That is if users do not enter values for the replacement Query(RP) variables do not execute the replacement path query(RP).
Does anyone know if this is possible within reason and in customer exit space?
We have reviewed the situation from all angles and the requirement for the replacement path FUNCTIONALITY and the freedom for the user to leave variable values blank remains.
I've been searching and reading SDN and SAP notes for about a week and do not find threads which address this situation.
We are also exploring Customer variable exits to mimic replacement path functionality
(different topic subject="How do I...Mimic Replacement Path with Query using Customer Variable Exits?")
Any help will be appreciated
Many thanks

How to make Custom Discoverer workbook use Custom Security profile of Apps

We use Discoverer in Oracle Apps setup. We have added Custom security in our HR People Form of Apps.
This Custom Security restricts one HR Emplpoyee not view other HR employee record except for himself/herself. Also maintining that they should be able to view all other employee's records.
The following code was put under the Security Profile Form -- > Custom Security Tab
exists (select 1
from per_jobs b
where ASSIGNMENT.job_id = b.job_id
and (b.name not like '%HR%')
and (b.name not like '%Human%')
and ASSIGNMENT.assignment_number is not null
union
select 1
from fnd_user fu
where fu.user_name = fnd_global.user_name
and fu.employee_id = PERSON.person_id
and ASSIGNMENT.assignment_number is not null)
Above security profile works fine for HR People Form.
However, It does not work for our Discoverer Workbooks. I found a note on Metalink 422841.1 which talks about leveraging the Custom Security of Apps in Discoverer Report. I read it, but did not get much clue.
Can Anyone help.
Thanks

Hi,
If you want to use custom HR security with Discoverer you have to ensure that the correct security filters are applied when the Discoverer reports are run. These filters can use the supplied HR_SECURITY package or you can develop your own conditions using table lookups or functions. To get the filters applied to your reports you have a number of options:
1. Build the security into custom folders using additional conditions
2. Use custom database views in Discoverer and build the security into the views
3. Use mandatory conditions in you Discoverer folders using either a function call or database contexts set at login time
4. Use VPD (Virtual Private Database)
I am not sure which of these options you are using to implement your HR security in Discoverer. The last option, VPD, is the most flexible and can give the best performance but maybe it is more complex to set up.

Why do we really use customized IKM's in ODI?

Do we really use customized IKM's .If yes , Can you please explain me a scenario where do we need use it? I searched some blogs but i'm not sure i understood them.

Yes we do. A lot .
Everytime that you see that you are having a lot of work to do something is because you are not changing a KM. The best thing in ODI is the hability to change it as you wish. Let me give you a few scenarios:
You are building a big DW and you want the KM to identify new periods in the load time and add new partitions on the target table.
You have sources around the world with the same table structure and you want to build only one interface and loop it in all this sources in parallel
You are integrating Hyperion Planning application and you don't want to create one interface per dimension, you want it more generic. Same for data and metadata.
Well there's a lot more scenarios that I can thing, but the ideia behind chante a KM is to make things easer for you, then everytime you are developing and you see that you have to do extra steps do do somthing you can consider change a KM.
Here's a link about change KM and his advantages.
