Adding AP Line extension fields to GL postings

I am trying to get an extension field that I have added to an AP Invoice Line to show on the resultant line in the GL. As a standard extension field there is no option to do this but I have seen on an earlier version that someone had added a script to a field that allowed it to be reflected on the resultant GL line (in the Self-Enablement system, 319968, when it was version 1411).
Please could someone share how this can be achieved.
Many thanks
Alastair

HI,
You do not need any enhancement for it.
If you have the access key then just add the additon line-size 255 to the repport statement.

Inserting a new extension field in the line item details page

Hi!
Is it possible to insert an extension field/collection in the line item details page of the master agreement? I have tried supplying several Field ID found on that page on the DISPLAY AFTER field of the extension, but nothing works - the new field still gets displayed at the header page.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Line Item is an independent class. You cant add an extension to Line Item through Master Agreement. This is the reason why the extension you add appears on the header tab of Master Agreement.
When I go to create an extension definition, I don't find Line Item in the drop down of Extended Class Name. So, my guess would be that we cannot create an extension definition for Line Items.
Let us know if you, or anybody, has a way to achieve it.
Thanks

Adding extension fields on standard Sales Lead screen on cloud for customer

Hello Experts.
I have a requirement to include custom fields drop downs on Sales Lead layout. Also, apart from first drop down the values of others are driven dynamically by the runtime input values. I assume there are two ways to include the custom fields.
1. Using cloud studio, by creating a custom BO & then using extensibility explorer to enhance the standard screens.
2. By using the ADAPT funcitonality at the UI level.
While performing the method (1), I am not finding any option on existing standard lead screens as add extension field to section group. So I am not able to include my custom created field on UI.
While performing method (2), I have included the field in UI & have created a reference of extension field in studio as well but my query is how to use that field in other actions or events as rest of the drop down values are driven by this drop down.
Is there any other method to perform this task. Any sort of information is welcome.
Thanks & Regards,
Ravi Katyal

Hello Alessandro,
Thanks a lot for your suggestion, I have performed the Method (2) and was able to add the fields on the standard UI. The issue was that the sales lead screen in standard repository was termed as 'COD_MarketingLead'. So, I was not looking in that with more insight. Now, my requirement is to perform a dynamic dropdown dependent on a previsouly selected value in a drop down. Do you have any insights in that, I am planning to use this approach which I just realized is penned by you only. Thanks for that as well.

How to add extension fields and mashups to partner solution?

To add extension fields and mashups I have log on to the system using a user with adaptation rights.
There's no possibility to do that from within the UI designer, right?
Now, if I adapt the screens with extension fields or by creating and adding mashups, how do I add these enhancements to my partner solution?
Or in other words, how do I ship extension fields and mashups with my partner solution?

Before you use the key user tools, you must "enable key user tools" in copernicus by right click on the solution. Now the changes will be added to the partner soltution transport order.
But you can add extension field in copernicus as well by adding new item "business object extension" to the partner solution.

Permanently save line spacing in a multi-line text field

Me: Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro, Windows Vista
(I think the people who will be using the form have Reader 7 on Windows)
I work in a doctors' clinic, and we use phone message sheets to document conversations between the patients/us/nurses/doctors, and I scanned the form and made it into a fillable PDF for our secretaries to fill out more quickly. The "message" area has pre-printed lines on it, and the multi-line text field I placed there needs to match up to the lines. I used the Rich Text Formatting options to set it to "Exactly 24 Points," but I can't get it to KEEP the formatting permanently. The only way I could get it to save the formatting in that field was to put a space in it and then save it, and then give that to the 2 phone secretaries. It works perfectly the first time, but instead of just closing/re-opening the file to start a new message, one of the secretaries highlights everything in the "message" field and deletes it... which deletes the line spacing formatting. I've told her
b numerous
times to leave that starting space in the field, but she "forgets" so all of her messages look messed up. So is there a way to force that line spacing
b PERMANENTLY
???? Here's a shrunken screenshot of the field -- I wish I could just erase the lines altogether so the spacing wouldn't matter, but the secretaries type/print the message out, then the nurses/docs write on the page with pen so the lines have to stay. http://img187.imageshack.us/my.php?image=notepreviewph8.jpg
Thanks!

You can set the font size of the text. Then play with the underlines in the original document to match the needs of the font that is used. Print to a new PDF and then use replace pages to put the new page into the form without changing the form fields. I was able to do this with a word processing document by adding underlining in the document with 12 pt and setting the font to 12 pt in the text field. You can play with the font, the border of the field, and the underlining in the original document to get the desired result. Is this optimal, probably not. However it does the job.

Extension fields in Advanced Find Form

Hi, experts,
     I have four solutions in which I added one extension field to a standard BO.
     Let's say they are S1,S2,S3 and S4 respectively and all are of the same data type.
     I added each of them to the Advanced Find Form of the standard BO's OWL.(From Extensibility Explorer)
    The strange thing is when I enter some data in one extension field (just say S1), other extension fields (S2,S3,S4) are also filled with the   same data from S1.The deleting also have the same behavior.And when I delete one extension field(just say S2), the data in other extension fields (S1,S3,S4) are deleted too.
Why is this happening?
How can I control that?
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Fred.

Hi, Fernando.
    Thanks.
     I am sorry I was not quite clear on my question.
     Here is my Use Case.
     Let's say I have 4 solution, sol1, sol2, sol3, sol4.
     I have created an xbo of the same standard BO in each solution.
     My plan is to add one extension field namely ext1 (same name, same data type but different labels though) to that standard XBO all in sol1,sol2,sol3 and sol4.
     And I have added each extension field to Advanced Find Form of the standard xbo's OWL in all of the four solutions.
    Each extension field is bound to a respective element. (checked)
    I think my problem is I have unfortunately given the same name to all the extension fields.
    Please confirm.
Regards,
Fred.

Adapt an Extension Field in OWL

Hi Developer,
I have a problem:
1.)      I add an extension field in the Material BO:
           node Common {
            [Label("Aufteilung")] element Aufteilung:DecimalValue;
2.)      I enhanced the screen centralmaterialqaf.QA.xuicomponent and added the extension Field Aufteilung in the QA. This works perfect. I´m able to see the Field in my Front End and I´m also able to save the Amount in the field:
3.) Now i wana to add those field in the OWL: I opened the UI Designer and add the Extensionfield in the List. Now I opened the FrontEnd and there is no amount in the List:
Just an empty field!!! WHY?
Could anyone give me a hint or a sinpped?
Regards Manfred

Good idea or simply with the chrome developer tools. Dont forget to switch in html mode before

String-Line Extension

Friends,
   Can anyone of you resolve the below issue.
I am having a field called rec in an internal table.
I am passing a string to this field which might run for
few lines. To consider this line extension I am using the
extension character "-".
The code is given below.
data : source type string.
data : begin of itab occurs 0,
         rec type string,
       end of itab.
       itab-rec = 'ksjdksjdkjskjd'
                   -'lkskldlskdlksldklskd'
                   -'sdsdsdsds'.
       append itab.
       itab-rec =
'MangoApplejhfkkghhkglkjl;ghkjl;ghkjlkgh;ljkl;;jkl;ljk;'.
       append itab.
       write source.
       loop at itab into itab.
          concatenate source itab-rec into source.
       endloop.
       write source.
On execution of below code, I am getting the following error
   Unable to interpret "ksjdksjdkjskjd" as an number.
What might be the problem friends.
Regards,
Usha

Hi Usha,
but you can condense the gaps:
with:
itab-rec = 'ksjdksjdkjskjd
-lkskldlskdlksldklskd
-sdsdsdsds'.
CONDENSE itab-rec NO-GAPS.
APPEND itab.

Users Overwriting Segment Field on Financial Postings

I heard that users are able to overwrite the segment field for FI postings? I was curious what the logic is behind this? If the segment was derived from the profit center master wouldn't you want to ensure that the segment is always consistent with the profit center that derived it?

Please note that Segment is like any other additional account assignment and the filed status for the same is optional. The segment can be derived either through BADI, Profit center (IF PCA is active and segment is updated in the profit center master data) OR through manual input at the time of document posting.
As rightly stated by you, the normal process would be to derive the segment from profit centre. However, like any other derivation object which can be overwritten manually, same is the case with segment.
However, incase the segment are defined in a particular way in line with profit center, you may check for the same through validations.

Hi Experts
My custom field is added in the structure EDMS_TS_EXTENSION.
I see the set_dat_ext method of the class CL_DPR_DOCUMENT is missing and the extension related methods and attributes in the class CL_DPR_CFX_DOCUMENT are no more active.
Is there any modification free alternative to have custom fields for the document tab in cPro4.5?

Extension fields in forms using Adobe LiveCycle Designer and SAP Cloud Application Studio.

Hello everyone,
I am new to using SAP Cloud Application Studio and am currently working on forms.
I have created some extension fields in the dunning letter form message type : FormDunning Notification.
Upon activating, the extension fields do show up in backend form data type structure.
However i am unable to find the fields in the front end form under Form Template Maintenance.
I have tried opening form with open editor as well as downloading template and opening in Adobe LiveCycle Designer .
After creating the data connection in adobe ,the first field (ProjNumDun ) do appear in correct place in data view.But i cant find the rest of the fields.
Any help,guidance and suggestion will be really appriciated.
Thanking in advance,
Kamakshi

Kamakshi,
First, any extension fields added must be explicitly assigned to appear on the forms. Through Front-end Adaptation, this would be via the "Further Usage" link. Within the SDK, you'd right-click the XBO and select "Enhance Forms" (which would take you to the same screen as you'd end up at in through front-end").
You must select "Add Field and Edit..." to actually assign it to the Form Template schema.
Once this step is done, re-download the Form Template, and make sure to reload the Data Connection within LiveCycle. Through there, you should see your fields. You'll likely have to dig for them - they appear at the very end of the child elements.
Note that, while fields added through the front-end have a long string appended to the end (for example, it would appear as "ExtensionField_1234AISU897234HJA" if added via front-end adaptation), the fields added via the SDK do NOT have the suffix (you'll be looking for an element with JUST the field name, i.e. "ExtensionField")

Error in Creating a extension field in ByD

Hello ,
I am new to SAP byd ,
I am not able to add extension fields in Sales order.
It gives "Operation not Possible , User setting could not be determined"
How to rectify this?
Thanks
Prat

Cause
There are 2 possible reasons for this error message:
1. Your tenant is used for the development of customer-specific solutions
(One-Off Add-On).
Your user is assigned to a PDI solution and therefore you
can only create fields in the Cloud Applications Studio. You can only create
extension fields using the key user tools if you are not a PDI developer. Once
any user opens the PDI Studio the respective user is assigned to the PDI
solution.
2. Your tenant is a partner development tenant.
Since this system is a
partner development system the field extensibility is only possible in the Cloud
Applications Studio not in the key user UI (User Interface).
If the cause of the error is reason 1 you can solve this issue as
follows:
In order to use the standard field extensibility functionality you need to
create a key user which is not assigned to the PDI solution or change the access
rights of an existing Business User.
Please note that this user needs to be assigned to the Application and
User Management work center and the Flexibility Change Log view in
order to be able to use the field adaptation.
This user should not be assigned to Partner Development (ID:
PDI_PARTNER_DEVELOPMENT) and Development (ID:MAI_DEVELOPMENT).

Web Service Access to a extension field

Hello All:
   Scoping against solution capability, how easy, or at all possible, is to access a extension fields to a native ByD business Objects via web services? In my specific case, the E-Commerce Sales Order Creation Web Service.
   But the question is pretty general, This can be a data retrieve web services as well? Any limitations? does it needed to be rebuild by SAP? or can we generate them by ourselves?
   Also, if in future new extension required on web services, can this process be done after implementation and go live? Without too much trouble?
   Any documentation will be greatly appreciated! Thank You!

This is doubtful as it is a Standard service (we use it for several different solutions).. and is the same across all tenants and I do not think it can be applied as a custom one off..
asking your dev coach would probally be your best bet.
Another solution for you would be to have a simple Read,Update Service you write that just deals with your extension fields... so after an order is created you can update your field on the sales order, or read the value given a specific sales order.
Unless this has changed it is my understanding that you have to add the Extension field via the Development studio not the Key user tools if you wish to have access to it in the Studio for releasing a webservice like I described above.(Most my work so far has involved integrations and the standard webservices)

Having problems when adding new Curency value field + currency field.

I need to add a new Currency field (CURR, length 15, 2 decimal places) plus the Currency field itself to a view.
I'm really struggerling. I have looked at the existing SAP fields in the Component workbench and I have to admit I can not see how a field is linked/related to the currency itself. Is this link established purlely at the disctionary level?.
Has anyone added their own Z field value and Z currency field before. I can create both fields and display them, but what I can not work out is how I related them within the component workbench, or is this done from the dictionary?.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I should have been able to look at an existing SAP example and work out how it's done, but so far I can not see/determine how this is achieved, even though someone has mentioned that it's controlled via the GET_I_field method. Looking at this method I was expecting to see some mention of both the Currency value field and the Currency field. But as I don't see these confusion reigns.
Jason

That's correct, but am I right in thinking that you can't actually create the currency key field itself?.
I am aware that currency value fields can be created which reference a currency key field, but can see nothing that allows me to create a currency key field to be referenced.
I hope that makes sense.
Also, I have amended the structure, changing my value fields from Decimal 15,2 to Currency 15,2 and have created a new currency key field in the structure and referenced this from the Currency value field.
Witin the Component/view/context node I can see this new currency key field, but it appears as STRUCT.fieldlabel whereas my currency value field appears in the context node as EXT.fieldlabel, because it was created in the AET.
My problem is that when attempting to add the currency key field onto the screen I don't have it to select from within the list of structures/attributes. All the others attributes in the context node seem to be there, except the new currency key field/attribute.
The attribute has a SET_fieldlabel, GET_fieldlabel, GET_M_Fieldlabel and a GET_I_Fieldlabel, which I believe is all that should be required.
Does anyone know what my problem could be?.
Jason
