"Asset main no. text " field derived from "Description" field

Hello,
I have a problem with asset master data.
When I enter the description of the asset then it is automatically copied to Asset main no. text field.
How could I customize it not to be copied?
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi,
SAPLAIST is the SAP Program name which provides this functionality. Set ur break point on LAISTF89 INCLUDE under SAPLAIST.
You will find some statements between 19 to 25 lines, which states that if Main number(ANLH-ANLHTXT) status i.e. SDRO is active then check its value if it is initial then copy its value from ANLA-TXT50 description column.
ANLH-ANLHTXT = ANLA-TXT50.
I checked about this functionality under SAP 3.1.. there its not available.....
So its a kind of Gift!!!!! in SAP 6.0....! Enjoy....... it.............
Thanks

Commitment item can not derived from main asset number

Dear all,
Our client have 1 G/L LVA and divided to many asset class LVA. Asset lva will post to general expense when run depreciation, and they want the acquisition/procurement of LVA should check the budget of the general expense.
It means the acquisition of LVA will check the budget of general expense, then no budget when run depreciation.
I already setting for no check budget for run depreciation. However, i found trouble when set the derivation from main asset number to commitment item. I want to set from main asset number because only 1 G/L LVA.
Derivation rule from main asset number not populated to commitment item which i'm expecting, example
FMDERIVE (1)   CI from main asset number (for acquisition)
                   asset number         CI
                  23000000000        7400000102
FMDERIVE (2) CI from g/l account
                   G/L acct.                CI
                 2290000001          2290000001
Because asset number 23000000000 assign to g/l 2290000001, then the tracing always read the g/l account, then derive to commititem 2290000001 NOT to 7400000102.
I already give many condition however it can not work. Even i deactivate fmderive (2), asset number can not populate to relevant commitment item.
Please give me advice how derive the commitment item from main asset number or relevan things.
Regards,
Dewi

Hi Dewi
Please have a look at these notes which I think are interesting:
[736914|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/736914]     Budget relevance of asset transactions
[1268001|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1268001] FI313 - No funds center entered/derived
So, if you need to derive the FMAA from the Asset master data, you could enable a derivation step calling function module FMDT_READ_MD_ASSET. Take care of following derivation steps which may be overwriting the derived values from FMDT_READ_MD_ASSET. See the trace log, according to note [666322|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/666322]

How can I get the "text" field from the actionEvent.getSource() ?

I have some sample code:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class JFrameTester{
     public static void main( String[] args ) {
          JFrame f = new JFrame("JFrame");
          f.setSize( 500, 500 );
          ArrayList < JButton > buttonsArr = new ArrayList < JButton > ();
          buttonsArr.add( new JButton( "first" ) );
          buttonsArr.add( new JButton( "second" ) );
          buttonsArr.add( new JButton( "third" ) );
          MyListener myListener = new MyListener();
          ( (JButton) buttonsArr.get( 0 ) ).addActionListener( myListener );
          ( (JButton) buttonsArr.get( 1 ) ).addActionListener( myListener );
          ( (JButton) buttonsArr.get( 2 ) ).addActionListener( myListener );
          JPanel panel = new JPanel();
          panel.add( buttonsArr.get( 0 ) );
          panel.add( buttonsArr.get( 1 ) );
          panel.add( buttonsArr.get( 2 ) );
          f.getContentPane().add( BorderLayout.CENTER, panel );
          f.setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE );
          f.setVisible( true );
     public static class MyListener implements ActionListener{
          public MyListener() {}
          public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e ) {
               System.out.println( "hi!! " + e.getSource() );
               // I need to know a title of the button (which was clicked)...
}The output of the code is something like this:
hi! javax.swing.JButton[,140,5,60x25,alignmentX=0.0,alignmentY=0.5,
border=javax.swing.plaf.BorderUIResource$CompoundBorderUIResource@1ebcda2d,
flags=296,maximumSize=,minimumSize=,preferredSize=,defaultIcon=,disabledIcon=,
disabledSelectedIcon=,margin=javax.swing.plaf.InsetsUIResource[top=2,left=14,bottom=2,
right=14],paintBorder=true,paintFocus=true,pressedIcon=,rolloverEnabled=true,
rolloverIcon=,rolloverSelectedIcon=,selectedIcon=,text=first,defaultCapable=true]
I need this: "first" (from this part: "text=first" of the output above).
Does anyone know how can I get the "text" field from the e.getSource() ?

System.out.println( "hi!! " + ( (JButton) e.getSource() ).getText() );I think the problem is solved..If your need is to know the text of the button, yes.
In a real-world application, no.
In a RW application, a typical need is merely to know the "logical role" of the button (i.e., the button that validates the form, regardless of whether its text is "OK" or "Save", "Go",...). Text tends to vary much more than the structure of the UI over time.
In this case you can get the source's name (+getName()+), which will be the name that you've set to the button at UI construction time. Or you can compare the source for equality with either button ( +if evt.getSource()==okButton) {...}+ ).
All in all, I think the best solution is: don't use the same ActionListener for more than one action (+i.e.+ don't add the same ActionListener to all your buttons, which leads to a big if-then-else series in your actionPerformed() ).
Eventually, if you're listening to a single button's actions, whose text change over time (e.g. "pause"/"resume" in a VCR bar), I still think it's a bad idea to rely on the text of the button - instead, this text corresponds to a logical state (resp. playing/paused), it is more maintainable to base your logic on the state - which is more resilient to the evolutions of the UI (e.g. if you happen to use 2 toggle buttons instead of one single play/pause button).

ADD ITEMS TO DROPDOWN BOX FROM A TEXT FIELD(USER ENTERS THE ITEM) AND BOUND VALUE ALSO

I WANT TO ADD ITEMS THE DROPDOWN BOX FROM THE TEXT FIELD(ITEM NAME) WHERE USER ENTER'S THE ITEM DESCRIPTION
AND BOUND VALUE ALSO SHOULD BE ADDED TO THE SAME ITEM.
SAME WAY REMOVE ITEMS FROM DROPDOWN BOX
PLEASE GIVE SAMPLE FORM OR JAVASCRIPT FOR THE ABOVE SCENARIO.....
INDEED HELPFUL FOR MY PROJECT PLEASE SEND ATTACHED PDF FORM

Hi Praveen,
Your form is not shared so I have not been able to access it. But I have updated mine. There are now two approaches, one that follows on from the above method and updates each drop down list in each row. The second updates a separate dataset that the drop down list is bound to. This second approach requires the remerge() method which can cause problems if your code has updates some form properties like a borders color as these will be reset, but the code is simplier and you will only have one list to maintain. The add button click code is;
var particulars = xfa.datasets.resolveNode("particulars");
if (particulars === null)
    particulars = xfa.datasets.createNode("dataGroup","particulars");
    xfa.datasets.nodes.append(particulars);
var particular = xfa.datasets.createNode("dataValue","particular");
particular.value = ItemName.rawValue;
var boundValue = xfa.datasets.createNode("dataValue","id");
boundValue.value = BoundValue.rawValue;
particular.nodes.append(boundValue);
boundValue.contains = "metaData";
// find sorted position to insert
for (var i = 0; i < particulars.nodes.length; i++)
    p = particulars.nodes.item(i);
    if (p.value > particular.value)
      particulars.nodes.insert(particular, p);
             break;
// add to end if greater than all existing items
if (particular.parent === null)
    particulars.nodes.append(particular);
// clear source fields
ItemName.rawValue = null;
BoundValue.rawValue = null;
// remerge form data to pick up new item
xfa.form.remerge();
And the binding looks like;
I have updated my sample to include both methods, https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=OwysfJa-Q3HhPtFlgRb62g

Hiding first record from database in input text fields.

Hi,
I have 2 pages, a main page and a popup page. The main page has attributes from a VO in the form of input texts (I just dragged individual attributes) and a link that brings up the popup page. On the popup page I have an ADF Search Form and a Read-Only Table with selection. A user is able to search for records in the database then select the result and submit that row back to the main page which populates the input texts. When you first load the main page, the input texts that are linked to the VO iterator are already populated with the first row in the database. Is there a way to hide these values (but not the entire text fields) until after the user has searched from the popup?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
thanks much for the replies. Luc, I tried adding that Refreshcondition to the iterator in the pagedef and the result was when I ran the page, the textboxes and record would be gone but the label remained (close but I still need the empty box to show). Also, after running a search in the dialog box and submitting the result back to the main page, the values would still not show up, it just looked the same as when I first run the page.
Did I put the RefreshCondition in the wrong place, or is it something else?
Thanks again.

Change a text field on the timeline from a class

Hi,
I need some help in changing the content of text fields that are on the stage of the main timeline from within an external class. I have created a countdown timer which is called from the Document Class. I think it is a problem with the scope of the variable but I can't work it out.
Main Document Class:

                    gotoAndPlay("TimesUp");
Many thanks in advance.

Your code is not going to work as you show it. First, you should not be putting your class methods inside the constructors... And yes - scope. You make your new count_timer as a local variable inside a function that is called on click. Essentially, the timer is gone just as fast as it's created. If you want the timer available to the other methods in the class it should be declared as a private var in the class definition.
And I agree with kokorito - have your timer extend EventDispatcher and then it can do like: dispatchEvent(new Event("myTimerEvent")); and you can then add an eventListener to it when you create it in your main class. You just listen for "myTimerEvent" or whatever string you use, and call whatever function you want - just like using any other listener.

TPID not Derive from Intracompany Asset Transfer

Hi,
I'm facing a problem with Intracompany asset transfer ~ Trading Partner is not auto derive from the asset transfer posting.
Currently I'm using a customize transfer variant (copy from transfer variant 4). The only difference is that the customize one do not copy the original master data details (cost ctr, plant, etc) to a new asset.
Is there any other way that I can use to make the TPID automatically derive from this transaction?
TQ.

Hi,
check the transfer variant concerning the Transfer of Fields for new Assets in Target Company Codes. IMG Asset Accounting -> Transactions -> Intercompany Asset Transfers -> Automatic Intercompany Asset Transfers -> Define Transfer Variants. On the popup choose "Specify Transfer of Fields (for New Asset in Target CoCd)" ... here you can set up which fields are taken over, when you create new assets within the transfer posting.

Hi
I created the "read" and "update" methods in my application service. How can I call them? I created and implemented the methods just like here: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/340fc0ea-0c01-0010-74bf-965b11031e77
Operations:
- readMyEntityService:
- updateMyEntityService
Implementation:
retValue = getMyEntityService().read(key);
getMyEntityService().update(dS0);
In Web Dynpro there is this update method with the code above (in my original post).
How can I call the update-method????????
Kind regards

How to autopopulate a text field with unique data from multiple data sets

Hi,
I'm a laboratory manager in charge of a hospital project which will be using pdf forms to send and receive data from our end users across the city. I need help with the last part of our pdf form, specifically with a js that will do a bit of text-field autopopulation magic. This, unfortunately, is a beyond what I have taught myself about pdf js functionality.a
The problem:
I need to provide my end users with a text field containing a set of data [A, B, C, D, E, F ...] and the total items in this set [tot#]. The end user needs this information as part of the implementation of this particular laboratory machine.
The particulars
When the end user asks for an experiment to be run, we must specify some pieces of data to help them interpret the results. These are constructed as panels which contain discrete data elements.
For example - One experiment may use two panels, Panel#1 and Panel #2. Panel #1 includes the items A, B, D, E, Panel #2 includes the items A, B, C, F, G.
Thus, the panels may share some of the same items, but, I only want the unique members to be displayed in the text field. If I make a drop down box or checkboxes with the panels, I want to be able to select the panels that we ran and (in this example) have the text field display only the unique items among all the panels that were used:
textfield outpute = A, B, C, D, E, F, G - 7 total.
Any assistance from the pdf community would be very much appreciated.
Thanks!

Thanks for that help.
I should have made it more apparent that I'm very new to scripting and I'm
not a programmer by trade. I have a few questions before modifying the code
you kindly provided.
1) Where should I embed this script? Within the 'selection change' area of
my listbox?
2) Can I replace the term 'arr' with the names of the various items in my
listbox or should I put 'arr#' as the output value for each term?
3) Will this script find and display the unique values when a user selects
multiple items in my listbox?
4) How does the script know where to output the unique members of the
combined set?
I appreciate your patience with me.

Populate drop-down list from multiple text fields.

Just to begin, I am brand new to this application and brand new to coding in general. Anyways, this is what I am trying to accomplish. I need to populate a drop-down list from multiple text fields. I am able to populate one item using this in the calculate event:
TextField1.rawValue
After I type text in TextField1 and hit enter, it displays the text in the drop-down list. I need to do this but with more than just one text field to populate more options for the drop-down list. I will also need to do something similar with populating a drop-down list from selections made in multiple other drop-down lists.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Thank you for your suggestion Geo Kaiser. With that, I was able to populate my drop-down lists, but now when I select an option from the drop-down list, the selection dissapears. The selection will appear briefly in the box but then dissapears although my drop-down list options remain there. Here is the code I am using for my text field to drop-down list:
DropDownList1.clearItems()
DropDownList1.addItem(TextField1)
DropDownList1.addItem(TextField2)
And here is my code for my drop-down list to populate another drop-down list:
DropDownList3.clearItems()
DropDownList3.addItem(DropDownList1)
DropDownList3.additem(DropDownList2)
Thanks again for your help. By the way, I am using Adobe Designer 7.0.

How can i redirect 5 choice options from a drop down list into 5 separate text fields?

I have a number of drop down lists which push one of 5 choices to a text field on another page.
I want to be able to push each choice from one drop down field to a separate field, so that it is not possible to duplicate the drop down choice.
The resulting page is going to be locked.
What script do I need to use to send each of the five choices specifically to five separate text fields?
Thanks for the insight.

Hi Paul,
I've had a look at the sample script you posted. I'm not sure how to make it work with the form I'm creating. (I sent it to you earlier.) Would you mind setting one of the fields up on my form so that I can get an idea of how to then push the choices set up on the "visible on screen only" to the textfields which are locked on the visible page? Do i lock the fields in the same way?
Will I need to create a new script for each of the arrays I'll be creating? for example, myScript1, myScript2, my Script3....
Why do i need a reset button?

Populate a drop down list with data from Excel and fill in a text field, based on drop down selectio

Hi!
I have a problem with a PDF form: There's a drop down list that I populate with Excel data that I've put in an XML file through an XSD file -- no problem here. The drop down list has a data binding to the XML file, so that a choice in the drop down list can be associated with an object in the XML file. So, when I make a choice in the drop down list, a corresponding object value is fetched from the XML file and put in a text field on the form.
How to do this is described by Stefan Cameron here:
http://forms.stefcameron.com/2006/07/29/dynamic-properties/
There's a snag, though, and to describe it more clearly:
The XML file contains three types of objects: role, role number, and role cost center. Of these I use the first and the third, i.e. the role and the role cost center. The drop down list contains the roles, and when I select a role, the corresponding cost center is filled out in the text field. So far, so good!
But -- if the cost center has the same value for two or more roles, all of these roles "bounce back" into the drop down list, that is, they are all selected in the drop down list. How many of these you can see depend on the height of the drop down list -- if it's low you'll only see the first one.
If I modify Stefan Cameron's data in his example I get the same behavior, so the problem seems to have to do with how XML data are fetched.
I'm sure there's a workaround, but I can't find it! I've spent many hours browsing the web without finding anyone with a similar problem.
Any suggestions appreciated!

Although your issue is far beyond mine, I was hoping you can help me out.....
I need to create a drop down list of names which I wish to somehow link to an Excel spreadsheet.
Please let me know the steps I need to do. I've tried several things, but nothing seems to work and I'm not sure what I am doing wrong.
Thank you

How to get data from list of values (LOV) to be displayed in a text field ?

Hi guys,
I am very new to Oracle APEX so please spare me if it is a silly question. How can I get the selected values from a set of list of values (LOV) displayed in a text field (or text area or so) ? Fox example, in my form I create 4 items: STATE, COUNTY, STREET, ZIPCODE and all of them are LOV (list of values). I also create 2 buttons (ADD & REMOVE). Then I create a test field (or text area name SELECTED RECORD). Now here is what I want to do with my form:
When I set the values for all 4 fields, I will click on the ADD button then I want those values be displayed in the text field.
For example, if the selected values are:
STATE = Alabama
COUNTY = Abbeville
STREET= 1 Street
ZIPCODE = 36310
And the ADD button is pressed. Then in the text field I want it displays like this:
Alabama,Abbeville,1 Street,36310
If I choose other values and click ADD again, a new line will be added into the text fields (text area). If I click the REMOVE button, then it will clear those two line in the text field.
Would it be possible to do it? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

If you can live with the page being submitted and refreshed, make your ADD button do a submit with a request value of ADD and make your REMOVE button do a submit with a request value of REMOVE.
Then create two computations (one firing with a condition of Request = ADD and the other firing with a condition of Request = REMOVE).
In the ADD one, concatenate the values together into the text area (most likely a PL/SQL computation wiill be what you want). In the REMOVE one, set it to null with a PL/SQL computation.
If you want it done without submitting the page, make the buttons each do a redirect to a URL but instead you will have to write two short javascript functions in the page HTML header to manipulate the field values. Each button would call each javascript function in an onclick event.

How do I use Javascript to populate a text field based on a selection from a drop down box?

Greetings,
I have virtually no experience with JavaScript and I am trying to figure out how to add some basic automation features to an Adobe form. I have a drop down box called "Hospital_Name" that will contain approximately 7 possible selections. When the user makes a selection, I would like to have the text field (called "Hospital_Address") below the drop down box populate with the corresponding address for the selection. I have the "Hospital_Address" text field configured for multiple lines and would like the address to have a line break between the street address and the city/state/zip.
For example, if the user selected "Hospital 1", the text field would display:
123 Main St
Anytown, CA 12345
Any help or examples you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

You have the element names within the object within brackets.
Make sure your brackets are properly placed and matched.
