Automatically refreshing LOV failes

Hi,
I have a report based on Crystal Reports. This reports includes a dynamic parameter (LOV) based on one field in an SAP Query. This SAP query contains an user exit, so that each user can only see "his" data.
Based on that user exit, the LOV of the parameter shows only these values for which the user is qualified for.
When User1 opens the report in InfoView on his own PC he gets "his" LOV, chooses the parameters and runs the report, when User2 on his PC also opens the report a short while after User1 runs his report, then User2 gets the LOV from User1. That means Crystal uses the LOV from the cache and does not refresh the LOV for each execution of the report.
This is absolutly NOT correct. Does anybody has a solution for that?
I know that Crystal has problems with dynamic LOV when using Universes, but don't use an Universe in this report.
Please help!
Thank you,
Stefanie

This is a WAG at best, but a thought none the less...
Might there be an entry in the system registry or .ini file that is used to tell Crystal how old a cached LOV can get before it is refreshed? Perhaps that could be changed to "zero"... (Modify the registry at your own risk! :-> )
HTH,

THis is a very annoying problem.
(I've already done a search on this forum and found someone with exactly the same problem...the post is marked as answered but without explanations...)

hi antinous,
this would most likely have something to do with the way the enterprise crystal reports servers are caching the reports and doesn't really relate to the design of the report.
you can double check this by running the report in the crystal reports designer, and then rerun the exact same report also in the crystal reports designer using different user credentials...this is of course just to double check that the LOV is indeed bringing back the appropriate data for each user.
if the LOV's work fine in the designer and if you haven't found the answer you are looking for then you may wish to repost this to
SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise/Edge, and SAP Crystal Reports Server Administration
BI Platform
you'll have more luck there as this would be the forum that looks after those servers.

LOV Automatic Refresh

Hello,
I'm using an automatic refresh list of values, which works fine in WebI,
in editing mode (java). My clients use the HTML/PDF view of the report, and
have to refresh the LOV manually.
Has anyone an idea of how to make the LOV behave the same in Java and HTML
Thank you
Martin

Greetings,
What happen if you set the document to refresh on open?
Did you by any chance tick the box at universe to export LOV with universe? If yes you may need to untick this box and set the Automatic Refresh for the LOV.
You may need to purge the LOV before experting the universe after unsetting the export with universe button.

Automatic Refresh of LOV

Hi,
When I click on LOV button for a new transaction, the LOV is filtered by the value that was used in the previous transaction.
Is there a way to automatically refresh the LOV so that all values appear?
I am using jdeveloper 10.1.3
Thanks

Hi,
there are two aspects in your question that I cannot make sense of
1. what has the "transaction" to do with it
2. There is no LOV in ADF Faces of 10.1.3, so which technology are you talking about ?

Automatic Refresh of Data Visualization Component

Hi,
I saw Duncan Mills do a really neat demo at ODTUG where he setup a graph to automatically refresh upon data changes in a database.
I'm trying to replicate this behavior but am failing.
Does anybody have any suggestions / instructions on how to do this ?
Thanks,
Mark

Maybe Duncan used the Active Data Service ( chapter 40 of the documentation. )
in combination with BAM / ADF / ADF BC
In order to use the Active Data Service, you need to have a data store that publishes events when data is changed, and you need to create business services that react to those events and the associated data controls to represent those services.
You also need to configure your application to use the Active Data Service. You can set your application to push content as it changes in the data store, or you can have the client poll the service at designated intervals. Once your active data store is in place, along with services and the corresponding data control, you can use the Data Controls panel to create the components that will respond to the active data.
please let me know if it works

Automatic Active Sync failed to Start at appropriate time

Hellos,
Its holiday season here. We had a FF Active Sync process that failed to start up.
Ops noted an overheating CPU at 2am. Server was brought down.. App server stopped, Database stopped. Fan fixed and Server rebooted.. Database started Ok, App server started Ok.. according to AS Log idM started up ok... but the 'automatic' Active Sync process refused to start.
What could prevent it?!
I have seen various people's opinions.. e.g.
"Hi,
There can be lot of reasons , for not starting activesync.
if you are using activesync between SIM and database ,
then lets start from activesync wizard ,
1)check the i/p activesync form(version should be correct)
2)check the startup type
3) if you are using query based activesync
check the first and last predicate fields and you need to ensure that the logic you have used in i/p activesync form will generate some processing once you start active sync otherwise you will not see active sync in executing state.
you can check weather activesync has performed operation or not in IAPI in the debug page under configurator
if your CPU utilisation on server is very high activesync will not start
these are general things
if you can give some more specific details abt your application and problem i can help you out.
Warm Regards,
Gajanan"
This process had been left unstarted for some time. Noone checked.. why should they.. its automatic (obviously IdM isnt an R.E.M. fan)
Surely an automatic start type should (re)start after a reboot for hardware reasons!
Is the only thing we can we put in a Solaris shell script to test that these ****ing active sync process have been started and are running after a reboot/restart of App.server is a date test of the log file? i.e. if log file has not been touched in x days raise an alarm... seems something that is better built into IdM than a script.
How has this problem been faced and met by others out there? I am sure we are not the only people who have had to shutdown and restart IdM.

Indeed it does. The problem is that a log is just that.. a log of what has happened. In our case the 'automatic' AS process failed to start automatically.
We are forced to use the log and reverse apriori reasoning to detect whether the AS process actually started.
I hope you agree this situation isnt really satisfactory, is it?

Is there a way to automatically refresh a webpage in Firefox 3.6.10?

hi there,
I am hoping the Firefox team can help with a small problem, is there a way of automatically refreshing webpages within Firefox 3.6.10 and 4.06 beta? We are building an interesting website at the moment and the client is using Firefox 3.6.10to view the site. Each time they go onto the new website to see the changes we have done, they are shown old pages. We need to rectify this problem as quickly as possible, for our client without requesting that they refresh the page each time they go onto the site.

You can do that by changing a hidden preference.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# In the filter box type '''browser.cache''' to bring up a small number of preferences
# Double-click on the preference '''browser.cache.check_doc_frequency''' and change its value to '''1'''
For more details on that preference see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.cache.check_doc_frequency

When I sign into or out of Gmail - many other pages automatically refresh. How do I stop this?

I hate automated things, when it's NON consensual and it's part of some automated bullshit trip.
I might have half finished texts on the other open tabs, or what ever, but it's MY bandwidth to chew up on things I see fit, not the people of Mozilla, or Google or whoever.
And while the account page is gmail, that I am signing into or out of, the other pages are NOT google pages either.
I think the designers of the "refresh / automatic refresh" should be shot - because the reason I have a PAGE (tab) open, is because I want to access THAT page, and not a later version of it...
This auto-reload / refresh of some tabs absolutely annoys the piss out of me, because I did not ask for it, and there is NO apparently easy up front way to stop it from happening - which I also think is one of the best way to alienate users of a product - by building in a host of idiot functions with NO control over them.
So how do i stop this from happening?

''the-edmeister [[#answer-690349|said]]''
<blockquote>
That may be happening for websites that participate in Google+. ''IOW, Google+ knows about a lot of things you use on the internet; like they're following you around.'' You may want to check those websites to verify that they are connected with the Google+ program, or not. ''In that case, my hypothesis is incorrect.''
I think what happens is that you sign in at Gmail, which is a Google+ sign-in these days, and all the other web pages that participate in the Google+ program somehow "sense" that you have just logged into Google+ and reload their page to reflect that you are nowlogged into the Google+ program. Google+ was originally an "option" at Gmail, but that ended not to long after Google+ came about - like within 6 months or so.
http://www.google.com/intl/en/+/learnmore/better/
One solution is to stay logged into Google+ / Gmail all the time. Another is to transition away from Gmail over time and use a different web-mail platform instead; and eventually stop using Gmail altogether.
</blockquote>
Yeah this is sounding like "THE PROBLEM" and what drives it. However, the solutions you have offered are not "solutions", in that they do not "FIX" the issues, they merely circumvent or bypass them.
Since I can't go punch Eric Schmitt on the nose for being a nazi prick, and send him the bill for wasting my internet data, I want to stop the collusive programming practices of the people from Mozilla and Google - from operating my computer, contrary to my mandates. i.e. It's my computer and I am paying for my bandwidth." - I have total say so about what I allow to go on, not anyone else.

I want to prevent open websites from automatically refreshing.

I work with many tabs open at the same time during my work day. I wonder if the fact that they automatically refresh frequently is a factor in slowing Firefox. How can I disable the automatic refresh? I do not with to close and reopen as they all require logins and it takes too much time.

Sorry, it looks that my reply above ended up in the wrong thread.
I'm not aware of a way to prevent automatic refresh if the page uses JavaScript to achieve this.
It is also possible to do this via a meta refresh tag.
In some cases this extension can help.
*RefreshBlocker: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/refreshblocker/
It doesn't work with refresh done via JavaScript as will be used in most cases these days.

Automatic refresh of photo order when changing photo titles in iPhoto 9.6

I've just moved from an older version of iPhoto to 9.6.
In the previous version, when you changed the title of a photo (within an event), the sort order of the photos was automatically and immediately updated. In 9.6 it isn't - I have to do View - Sort Photos then select another sort criteria (e.g. date), then do this again for title, to get the photo order to refresh.
Does anyone know if I am I stuck with this new (retrograde) behaviour, or if there's a way to get iPhoto 9.6 to automatically refresh the photo order?
Otherwise, is there a keyboard shortcut for refreshing the photo order, or for changing the view - sort photos criteria?
Thanks in advance for any help!

It will resort if you leave the Event (click All Events button) and then go back. Not a good solution but quicker IMO than using the View ➙ Sort menu method.
Be sure to send a bug report to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

UWL: No automatic refresh after completing workitem in iView

Hi,
our system is EP 6 SP2 P4 HF 7 with CM HF 6.
We have configured a workitem launched by an individual iview - this works fine.
For execution of this workitem we call SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT and save values in simple_container. After this SWW_WI_ADMIN_COMPLETE is called to complete the workitem to be cleared from UWL inbox.
If I refresh the tab manual all works fine - the completed workitem is not more there. But with automatic refresh this executed workitem is still listed.
Do you have any idea what we are doing wrong?
Configuration in uwl.standard:
<Views>
<View name="myWorkItemView" selectionMode="SINGLESELECT" width="98%" supportedItemTypes="uwl.task.webflow.DE9_TS99500153" columnOrder="detailIcon, subject, priority, creatorId, createdDate, dueDate" sortby="createDate:descend, priority:descend" tableDesign="STANDARD" visibleRowCount="20" headerVisible="yes" tableNavigationFooterVisible="yes" tableNavigationType="CUSTOMNAV" actionRef="" refresh="60" dueDateSevere="86400000" dueDateWarning="259200000" emphasizedItems="new" displayOnlyDefinedAttributes="yes" actionPosition="top">
I appreciate your help,
thanks in advance,
Thorsten Bingmann

Hi Ross,
concerning our problem (no WI completion by auto refreshing UWL) we have yet no solution. SAP Support told us to configure the cache lifetime of UWL to smaller size, but alas this does not solve the problem.
As you mentioned the blank webgui screen: I think this behaviour is by design. Calling an ITS transaction there's no other way to end the ITS session as of using the back or return button and get an end of session. The given status (WI new status: completed) indicates that UWL and ITS process the WI correct.
A smarter way to execute the concerning WI ID is to configure it in the xml file as generic decision task. Then you'll get an inline rendered java iview with decision "accept" or "decline" and the new status will be shown in UWL. This will take place of (standard) ITS configuration. Please have a look at the HowTo Guide of UWL.
Hope it helps,
regards,
Thorsten Bingmann

Automatically refreshed workspace and changes into LIVE

Hi,
I've noticed that changes made directly into LIVE
are immediately visible to automatically refreshed
child workspaces. However the answer to the FAQ
question "When sharing changes made in a child
workspace with another child workspace, should I
use periodic (manual) or continually (automatic)
refresh?", states that this type of change must
be refreshed manually.
What is the expected behaviour afterall?
Regards,
Karina Borges

Karina,
For continually refreshed workspaces, changes made in the LIVE workspace will be immediately visible.
For non-continually refreshed (NCR) workspaces, the changes are not immediately visible - to see the changes, NCR workspaces have to be manually refreshed.
We will update the FAQ to make this point clearer.
regards,
- Ramesh.

Automatic refresh in the inbox.

Hi There,
We have implemented a new workflow project. Work items are not being refreshed automatically when the user comes back to the inbox.
Is there any way we can automatically refresh the inbox.
Joe Vellaiparambil

Hi Joe,
normally the inbox is refreshed automatically when you enter.
We found the program that is called when you enter the inbox.
Here you can add additional code.
Function module: SINWP
subroutine: append_folrg_to_tree
Best regards,

Outlook 2007: unable to automatically refresh calendar

Hello,
With Outlook 2007 and OCFO 10.1.3.10 we can't get outlook to automatically refresh the calendar view so that events inserted in another client (i.e. same user on the web client or on the native ocal client, or another user) are seen.
Tools->Refresh Selected Folder(s) causes the events to turn up (eventually).
I've set the server refresh interval to 3 minutes, but despite several mail refreshes, I'm not getting any calendar refreshes.
Has anyone any ideas on how to get this working?
Tom.

Hello
there is also a setting on the server side (several actually)
Have a look at these pages
- in user.ini
http://68.142.116.68/docs/cd/B25553_01/calendar.1012/b25486/user_res_params.htm#sthref22
- in unison.ini
