Add EmployeeInfo Record via SDK

Trying to add an EmployeeInfo record with SDK, set First and Last Names which are mandatory fields, but add fails with message saying userid is not set.
I need to add records without a userid, does anyone know how?

Hi Andrew,
I have tested your code in my environment and it still succeeds. I'm also using UK Demo database.
I have not changed anything in your code... here's the code I executed. Are you declaring your eEmpRecordSet variable the same as mine? Please write down the exact error message.
            Dim lErrCode As Integer
            Dim sErrMsg As String
            Dim oEmpRecordSet As SAPbobsCOM.EmployeesInfo
            oEmpRecordSet = oCompany.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oEmployeesInfo)     '171
            'write
            With oEmpRecordSet
                .FirstName = "Unknown"
                .LastName = "Unknown"
                lErrCode = oEmpRecordSet.Add
                If lErrCode <> 0 Then
                    oCompany.GetLastError(lErrCode, sErrMsg)
                    MsgBox(sErrMsg, , "SAP HR Link")
                    Exit Sub
                Else
                    MsgBox("successful")
                End If
            End With
Thanks,

  • Incoming Payment add in sequence via SDK

    Hi guys,
    I want to use the SDK to add an incoming payment based on an invoice. It will only be a partial payment however and I want to pay the invoice in the same way that the "Add In Sequence" button works. I do not want the invoice to close until it is paid in full.
    Can anyone help?

    Hello
    Pay in Sequnece is a business logic, you must code the same  logic as B1 client uses.
    Of cource it is possible. I am sure, until the invoice not fully payed, the sap b1 internal reconsiliation engige will not close the sales invoice, os it will stay opened automatically. (not payed totally, you will see the reaining amount when you open the invoice via B1 client).
    logic should be coded:
    1. get the payment anoumt and customer
    2. get open  of the customer and sort them by date (sequnece based on date).
    here you mayuse a query based on jdt1 (balduedeb and balduecred are the fields holding the open amount of a transaction, ie unpayed amount of the incoive or a Journal entry)
    select * from jdt1 where shortname = 'cardcode' and balduedeb-balduecred != 0
    3. issue the payment object, until the payment amount is fit wiht the selected open items amount.

  • Where Clause - Modification via SDK

    Good morning,
    We are currently experiencing quite a large performance impact as our record selection formulas, and parameters are not hitting our database (in where clause) and therefore a large amount of data is being pulled back and then filtered out at the report level. Was hoping someone might be able to provide some information on how we could either dynamically append to the where clause via sdk, or devise optional workaround to make sure our selected parameters are passed to the db.
    Environment
    Solaris, with custom User Interface that passes information to crystal reports via SDK. Crystal Reports (2008) with Universe as datasource.
    Thanks,

  • Captivate Video Recording via web cam?

    Is it possible to do Captivate Video Recording via USB web cam? All I can see so far is about its ability to record screens and applications, but not do an actual video recording via a video camera input. Audio is no problem allowing you to insert audio from a file or do a live audio insert. Video however seems limited to insert from a file only. This would seem to imply you need a separate video recording application to capture video via a camera input, which is obviously disappointing if that's the case.

    Thanks. Hopefully they will add this basic functionality to Captivate ASAP. It's a missing fundamental element. i.e. to be able to add video annotation to your slides. Lectora Publisher does it and so should Captivate in my view, given it's supposed to be among or overall ahead of the leading products. Seamless audio / video annotation is a very common requirement nowadays.

  • Multiplex a mpeg2 video and audio stream recorded via a satellite receiver

    I would like to know if upgrading to QuickTime pro and/or adding the QuickTime MPEG2 add-on would allow me to multiplex a mpeg2 video and audio stream recorded via a European satellite receiver (like the Aston Xena 1800 HDU) in order to make movies that can later on be converted to be viewed on my iPod.
    Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    No. The MPEG-2 component is to play MPEG-2 not encode it.
    Use Toast. I assume you have separate audio and video transport streams, if they are named identically (1.m2v and 1.m2a) Toast will detect that and multiplex into a new MPEG-2. If not , add the video stream to Toast, which will ask for an audio stream to go with it. Either way it makes an MPEG-2 anew.
    Of course you cannot use MPEG-2 in iPod so rip that DVD (Toast can make just an image and you can mount that) to get the VOB file, then use MPEG Streamclip or iSquint to convert the muxed MPEG-2 file to MP4 suitable for iPod.
    Note I am very curious - are you sure this device delivers separate audio and video streams? Not a proper muxed MPEG-2 file? If the latter then just MPEG Streamclip or iSquint will do.

  • How do I add a record's primary key to a query string and add that to an .xml catalog?

    Hello everyone,
    I am using Dreamweaver CS3 on a MacBook Pro Leopard 10.5.6 and MAMP 1.7. I am also teaching myself how to work with PHP and MySQL, using David Powers book The Essential Guide to Dreamweaver CS3.
    I am trying to create a wedding photography web site, with a personal page after login, which will display the photographs of the customers wedding.
    The same page will also be a catalog/shopping cart, so the customer can choose which photo's they want, and pay for them. (I am aware that there are instructions in The Essential Guide in chapter 15 page 515, on how to redirect to a personal page, but it doesn't fully cover what I am asking).
    I have already created the login success page, which greets users by name, as per the instructions in The Essential Guide. I have also created a catalog page. However my catalog page is not calling information from the database, instead it is taking information from an XML page using PHP.
    I would like to insert a list menu on the login success page, which lists the customers name, and when they select their name they will then select a link that will take them to a personal page with just their wedding photographs.
    I am unsure of how to pass the customer_id, in what will be the username list menu, to the page which will contain the customers set of wedding images.
    Is it the same process used in chapter 14 where you add a record's primary key to a query string?
    I am asking because when I set up a recordset from the MySQL database it lists the images as witten names not actual images, I have tried calling the images with PHP code but it just doesn't work.
    The catalog page I have set up at the moment is not calling the images from the database, but directly from the image folder.
    Is what I am trying to do possible?
    If so how do I pass the customer_id and username to a recordset and link that recordset to the xml catalog so the customers personal wedding images are displayed on the catalog page for the shopping cart?  I need step by step instructions, or maybe a link to a good tutorial.
    Can somebody help me please?
    Thankyou.

    QuickTime 7 can set the poster frame, but I've not had much success with it. This is what QuickTime 7 Help says about this topic:
    +A "poster frame" is a still image of a movie that represents the movie in places like the Finder. The default poster frame is the first frame in the movie. You can change the poster frame.+
    +To change a movie's poster frame:+
    +In QuickTime Player 7, drag the playhead (or use the arrow keys to move the playhead) to the desired frame.+
    +Choose View > Set Poster Frame.+
    +To view a movie's poster frame, choose View > "Go to Poster Frame."+
    If you don't have QuickTime 7 (version 7.6.6) it can be installed from your Snow Leopard disc using a custom install. Otherwise download it from this Apple site: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL923

  • How to add new records in Start routine or end routine.

    Hi All,
            My requirement is to transfer data from one DSO to anothe DSO. But while transfering a single record frorm DSO1 i want to add 7 records to DSO2 for each record in DSO1 with slight change in data( with a different key). I want to do it in start routine or end routine. How can i do it. If you have any ABAP code for this then please send.
    Regards
    Amlan

    you can use this code, replace the fields where i have marked with <>.
    DATA : WA_RESULT_PACKAGE TYPE DSO2,
           WA_RESULT_PACKAGE1 LIKE WA_RESULT_PACKAGE.
    DATA : IT_RESULT_PACKAGE LIKE TABLE OF WA_RESULT_PACKAGE.
    DATA : DATE1 TYPE SY-DATUM.
    DATA : DAYDIFF TYPE i.
    DATA : RECORD_NO type rsarecord.
    SORT RESULT_PACKAGE BY <KEY FIELDS> "specify the key fields here
    RECORD_NO = 1.
    LOOP AT RESULT_PACKAGE INTO WA_RESULT_PACKAGE.
         IF WA_RESULT_PACKAGE_1-<KEYFIELDS> NE WA_RESULT_PACKAGE-<KEYFIELDS>.
              WA_RESULT_PACKAGE_1 = WA_RESULT_PACKAGE.
              DAYDIFF = WA_RESULT_PACKAGE-ENDDATE - WA_RESULT_PACKAGE-STARTDATE.
                   WHILE DAYDIFF NE 0.
                        DATE1 = WA_RESULT_PACKAGE-STARTDATE + DAYDIFF.
                        MOVE DATE1 TO WA_RESULT_PACKAGE-<KEYFIELDDATE>.
                        MOVE RECORD_NO TO WA_RESULT_PACKAGE-RECORD.
                        APPEND WA_RESULT_PACKAGE INTO IT_RESULT_PACKAGE.
                        DAYDIFF = DAYDIFF - 1.
                        RECORD_NO = RECORD_NO + 1.
                        CLEAR DATE1.
                   ENDWHILE.
              CLEAR DAYDIFF.
         ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.
    DELETE RESULT_PACKAGE[].
    RESULT_PACKAGE[] = IT_RESULT_PACKAGE[].
    Reg Point 3.
    The Key figures will then show up in the report aggregated.Hope that is fine with you.
    Note:
    Before loading data, in DTP set the semantic key with the key field of the DSO1.This brings all the similar data w.r.t the key fields from the PSA together in a single package.

    But the FI consultant wants to add multiple records to 'G/L account group'.After adding records before saving the system need to ask transport request at the last.
    How can I write code ...??
    Please help me.

    Hi Srikanth,
    Thanks for reply,
    You  are right we need to load hierarchy for G/L then we can see all the G/L's for all G/L groups.
    I have one more question when I check in RSA3 for the G/L account numbers, I could not find them.
    I am using the datasource fi_gl_4 and in rsa3 I can see 1000 records data and when I put filter on G/L account and search for the G/L number I needed I cant see it, but it is there in the functional transaction(f.01)?
    How to check for the required G/L's in rsa3 ?
    Thx

We added a chalk board that had the date the birth is to take place written on it, but it didn't show as well when I reviewed the first couple pics. So I erased the chalk board thinking that I could just add the date via Lightroom, but I have been unable to figure it out. Any help would be very much appreciated.

    To create a graphic watermark or identity plate for this purpose with a hand written chalk look you would need Photoshop or Elements to create a transparent PNG file so you might as well do the whole thing in one of those programs to start with.  You can't do this in the develop stage anyway like you requested.

  • How to add a record in document library without upload file.

    Hi,
    how to add a record in document library without upload file?
    Is it possible? I want to create a folders in Document Library but inside folders i do not want to upload a file instead of just i want to create a record. I will map my local file path to the records.
    Can anyone help me on it?
    Thanks & Regards

    Hello Sankaran,
    document library is to upload documents, without document you will not be able to add a record or Item to it.
    for your requirement you can use a list and enable folders within the list and maintain the local path of the file as an item in list.

  • Dear Community, how can I connect SCSI tape recorder via USB to iMac ? Is there any adapter/converter on the market now ? Cheers, Marek

    Dear Community,
    how can I connect SCSI tape recorder via USB to iMac ?
    Is there any adapter/converter on the market now ?
    Cheers, Marek

    Thanks Jan.
    Actually the reason to use Quantum SCSI tape recorder is to back-up big amount of data (propriety movies footage) both on PC (what is quite easy, using SCSII host adapter with VHDCI 68 connector) and iMac what seems to be not easy. All my search by Google leads to that conclussion, they finished production of SCSI-to-USB or FireWire because somebody stopped to produce chips to covert protocols. So even buying noe second-hand adapter, no guaranty it's still working with Lion (nobody is developing drivers anymore). Strange is, nobody or just a few are using SCSII (Ultra 320) devices (while the transfer is not bad, 320 MBps what is 2560 Mbps, so the only limitation is tape recording (some 80 MBps) not an interface. Using compression mode I can (and I do) record 1,6 TB of footage data. However quite slow, is safe and cheap, comparing with any HD storage solution. USB 2 is much more limited.
    I'm using Time Capsule for buck-up. But even 3 TB one day will be full of data, then old back-ups will be eaten by new once, what is not good idea for archives. I'm using another 2TB NAS HD (2x2TB RAID 1), but this is also going to be full soon.
    Of course, you are right, the option is another machine (OSX,Win,Linux or Solaris) equipped with SCSII controller. But this requires another machine, just for back-up time to time, and in practice iMac folders must be shared with that small auxiliary machine because amount of data practically excluding even temporary data collection on auxiliary machine. And it must be transfer by wire, not WIFI, my only network. Tape recording is in my case really good, professional solution, isn't it?
    Anyway, if somebody has similar requirements as me, and found the solution for SCSI, please let me know. So far, follow Jan's idea, I'm thinking about some embeded mini PC, fanless, equipped with slot for SCSI, with SOME smart system on-board, to deal with iMac for type recording. The option is previous Apple model, but to be honest, I became Mac/OSX user 4 years ago. I fell in love with Mac, but my knowledge about previous models is based on Google....
    My desk becomes full of boxes. Do you know how big Quantum TC-L42BX is ? Is very big. And now another box.....another keyboard....another screen... And one small adapter could solve the problem. Eh....
    Best regards,
    Marek
