Attachments on Custom Objects

Hello,
I need some advise regarding custom objects.
From what i can tell, with Custom Objects 1,2,3 there is a related section for Attachments.
However for Custom Objects 4 to 15, Attachments is not available.
So does anyone know if Attachments can be made avaialble for custom objects 4-15?
Regards
Minesh Patel

We have done this with a workaround.
Just use one of the custom objects 1-3 as a document metadata container. You can attache a document to this CO and use the link between the higher COs and the CO 1-3 for your attachment.
You will get also the advantage, that you can search on these metadata
regards,
Chris

Custom Objects details

Hello,
Does anyone have a clear and detailed overview from the Custom Objects? I know the general limitations of the new CO's like webservices and all, but if I am not mistaking there were or are also differences between CO3 and CO's 1 + 2, mainly with the relationships to other object types.
Kind regards,
Niels Rekers

Bob,
Thanks for the suggestion but I am not looking at the reporting functionalities of the Custom Objects at the moment. I am planning a couple of changes that will require the use of custom objects and change the current use of some custom objects as we cannot use the full functionality (e.g. teams, webservices, books, attachments) as we can with CO1 or CO2. So I would really need a complete overview with a level of detail that shows the relationships per CO to other objects for both webservices as is available in the system itself.
I have also logged a Service Request for this, as my requirements should be known within Oracle, but that is already open for more than a month without a proper answer.
Kind regards,
Niels Rekers

Performance issue in Webi rep when using custom object from SAP BW univ

Hi All,
I had to design a report that runs for the previous day and hence we had created a custom object which ranks the dates and then a pre-defined filter which picks the date with highest rank.
the definition for the rank variable(in universe) is as follows:
<expression>Rank([0CALDAY].Currentmember, Order([0CALDAY].Currentmember.Level.Members ,Rank([0CALDAY].Currentmember,[0CALDAY].Currentmember.Level.Members), BDESC))</expression>
Now to the issue I am currently facing,
The report works fine when we ran it on a test environment ie :with small amount of data.
Our production environment has millions of rows of data and when I run the report with filter it just hangs.I think this is because it tries to rank all the dates(to find the max date) and thus resulting in a huge performance issue.
Can someone suggest how this performance issue can be overcome?
I work on BO XI3.1 with SAP BW.
Thanks and Regards,
Smitha.

Hi,
Using a variable on the BW side is not feasible since we want to use the same BW query for a few other reports as well.
Could you please explain what you mean by 'use LAG function'.How can it be used in this scenario?
Thanks and Regards,
Smitha Mohan.

How to create the data for custom objects in pList

Hi,
I am new in developing on iPhone and I don't know much about this area. I would like to ask a question. I couldn't find the answer on this question in apple documentation but I hope Internet community will help me.
Lets say I have a class called classA. The classA has 2 public properties (or fields):
*int customIndex*;
and
NSString *customTitle;
My view controller class showMeSomething has a property NSArray which holds the objects of type classA. I would like to load the array from the plist resource file. How do I edit the resource file with initial values or how do I know the format of the plist which can be loaded from using mainBundle for my array of custom objects?
Thanks!

Here's some info on working with plists:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/PropertyLists/Introduc tion/chapter1_section1.html
They can be edited with any text editor. Xcode provides a graphical editor for them - make sure to use the .plist extension so Xcode will recognize it.

Generate quote off custom object--HTML in narrative duplicates table

Hi,
I am trying to build a quote header and lines off a custom object. Quote header works, but I am using a separate narrative report called from a web link to show the quote item lines data. The narrative section displays my basic table header and lines, but since the report returns two rows for the selected parts, the table with the header and lines is displayed twice, once for each row returned by the report itself.
I just want one instance of the table, one header and two lines, not separate tables for each part.
Here is the sample html placed in the narrative section of the report.
<TABLE BORDER="5" WIDTH="50%" CELLPADDING="4" CELLSPACING="3">
<TR>
<TH COLSPAN="2"><BR><H3>TABLE TITLE</H3>
</TH>
</TR>
<TR ALIGN="CENTER">
<TH>Column A</TH><TD>@5</TD><TH>Column B</TH><TD>@8</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
Many thanks for any input.

Hi,
Instead of putting it all in the Narrative section you could use the Prefix and Postfix like below:

<TABLE BORDER="5" WIDTH="50%" CELLPADDING="4" CELLSPACING="3">
<TR>
<TH COLSPAN="2">
TABLE TITLE
</TH>
</TR>
<TR ALIGN="CENTER">
<TH>Column A</TH><TH>Column B</TH>
</TR>

<TR ALIGN="CENTER"><TD>@5</TD><TD>@8</TD>
</TR>

</TABLE>

Event Bubbling Custom Object not inheriting from control

One of the new things flash flex and xaml have are ways which
the event easily bubbles up to a parent that knows how to handle
the event. Similar to exceptions travel up until someone catches
it.
My goal is to use the frameworks event system on custom
objects. My custom objects are:
ApplicationConfiguration
through composition contains:
SecurityCollection which contains many or no SecurityElements
and
FileSystemCollection.cs which contains many or no
FileSystemElement objects
ect ect basically defining the following xml file with custom
objects.
[code]
<ApplicationConfiguration>
<communication>
<hardwareinterface type="Ethernet">
<ethernet localipaddress="192.168.1.2" localport="5555"
remoteipaddress="192.168.1.1" remoteport="5555" />
<serial baudrate="115200" port="COM1" />
</hardwareinterface>
<timing type="InternalClock" />
</communication>
<filesystem>
<add id="location.scriptfiles" value="c:\\" />
<add id="location.logfiles" value="c:\\" />
<add id="location.configurationfiles" value="c:\\" />
</filesystem>
<security>
<add id="name1" value="secret1" />
<add id="name2" value="secret2" />
</security>
<logging EnableLogging="true"
LogApplicationExceptions="true" LogInvalidMessages="true"
CreateTranscript="true" />
</ApplicationConfiguration>
[/code]
basically these custom objects abstract the xml details of
accessing attributes, writing content out of the higher application
layers.
These custom objects hold the application configuration which
contains the users options. The gui application uses these
parameters across various windows forms, modal dialog boxes ect.
The gui has a modal dialog that allows the user to modify these
parameters during runtime.
basically i manage: load, store, new, edit, delete of these
configuration files using my custom objects.
Where would event propagation help in custom objects like
described above?
ConfigurationSingleton.getInstance().ApplicationConfiguration.CommunicationElement.Hardwar eInterfaceElement.EthernetElement.RemoteIPAddress
=
System.Net.IPAddress.Parse(this.textBoxRemoteEthernetIpAddress.Text);
The EthernetElement should propagate a changed event up to
the parent ApplicationConfiguration which would persist this to the
registry, db, file or whatever backend.
currently this logic is maintained else where. I serialize
the root node which compositely serializing the nested nodes and i
check of the serialization is different from that in the backend
… This tells me if the dom was modified. It works but i would
like an event driven system.
how should i implement bubbling using custom objects?
3 implementation ideas:
1) A simple way is to implement a singleton event manager:
EventManager.RegisterRoutedEvent
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms742806.aspx
I like this idea but how can you tell which object is nested
in who… this way the event can be stopped and discontinue
propagation?
2) If i use binders as discussed in Apress’s book:
Event-Based
Programming Taking Events to the Limit
basically a binder connects the events between seperate
objects together… although it would work for my app, I would
like a more generalized approach so i can reuse the event system on
future project.
3) how does flash flex handle this..
objectproxy.as?
http://www.gamejd.com/resource/apollo_alpha1_docs/apiReference/combined/mx/utils/ObjectPro xy.html#getComplexProperty()
>Provides a place for subclasses to override how a complex
property that needs to be either proxied or daisy chained for event
bubbling is managed.
how does these systems all work....? Reflection ?
this way i can simulate this on my own custom classes.
Thanks!

I have a strong sensation that the OSMF project is quite dead.
no new submits since 2010, the contact form on the offical OSMF
project website http://www.opensourcemediaframework.com/
returns a PHP error.
and many unanswered questions about OSMF in this forum.
i think it would be wise to not use OSMF if possible, although
I'm also stuck with it since we are utilizing HDS/PHDS
protocols which are utilized in the framework.
otherwise its quite a head-ache.
I'm unable to get to a video element coming from a proxied element
that is being produced via an HDS connection.
and haven't found any solution that works.

How can I disable a Custom Object Test?

I wonder if there is a way to disable a Custom Object Test. When I do a right click I don't see the option as in the other items under the frame node. I don't want to delete them because I may use them as reference in the future. So far I've been saving the file with a different name in order to preserve them, but, I don't want to have too many unused files around.

In order to disable a Custom Object Test right click on the Custom Object Test node and select "Script VBA Properties...". In the window that is opened uncheck "e-Tester" if you want to disable it when playing back in eTester for regression testing. The other two checkboxes are to disable the execution of the Custom Object Test when running the script in eLoad.

Checking the status of task records tied to the custom object 3

We are using custom object 3
There has been lot of configuration work done on this object.
There is a checkbox on the UI. When a user will checks off the check box, a task record(s) is created depending on the condition.
Is there a way for me to check the status on the task records and then set a field on the parent record i.e. custom object 3.
Thanks,

Using a Custom Object to allow an Entity to link to itself

Hey folks,
Have a feeling the answer to this is No, but have to ask anyway.
Is there any way that anyone is aware of to use a Custom Object to link an Entity to itself? For example... We have a CO (Custom Object) which is linked to Service Request. I want to link this CO to Service Request again, allowing one Service Request to be linked to another Service Request via the CO. I can obviously link Service Request to the CO, but the second link doesn't seem likely.
Cheers,
Mark

You can link multiple Service Requests to a single Custom Object (1-3) very easliy. Just expose SRs under related items on the Custom Object and adjust Access Profiles appropriately. Alternately, you can add Custom Objects to related items on the Service Request page layout so SRs can be linked to multiple COs.
In the end, you can end up with one CO linked to multiple SRs. This should give you what you are looking for - there may be more elaborate solutions involving multiple advanced custom objects.
The key, of course, is how you need this data to be viewed or reported on. You'll need to assess this solution to see if the output is what you require.

Many to Many with Custom Objects 4 and up

Hello,
Pls. I need to define a new CO4 that will have a many to many relationship with Contact.
From OD help pg.775 I understand that I should use another CO (f.ex. CO5) to be the intersection. Help file indicates how to rename the objects...and put them in the related info. section... but I don´t know what FIELDS (if any) I should define in the intersection CO5.
Pls. Anyone could help ?
Txs. a lot.
Antonio

Yes. You have to define them in CO5 Layout.
You should see Name, Contact and Custom Object 04 (you may have renamed it). Not the Id field.
Then when you add THE CO5 layout to Contact Related section, you can add new association between Contact and CO4.
Don't forgot to enable the Access Profiles in Contact, CO4 and CO5.

Sales order with reference to a custom object

Hi all experts, I have a question.
I want to create a sales order with reference to a complete custom object created in the CRM system. The custom object has a unique number assigned to it. How can I use the reference of this custom object in my sales order?
In other words, can I use a field in the sales order which will be storing this custom object number? If yes, which field can be used? If no, how else can this be achieved? Thanks in advance.

Animesh,
You have two options: Use the external reference number field on the Sales order if it is not be being used, however if you capture the customer's PO number you are probably aleady using that field. Otherwise I would do what you said and create a new Z-field via the EEWB and store your external reference number there.
If the custom object number was 10 digits alpha numeric, you could possibly create a custom partner function, but I really don't recommend it. The z-field will give you better performance for reporting, and future processing. I would put the z-field field in the CUSTOMER_H segment of the document.
Take care,
Stephen
