    Hi,
    To actiavte the objects in the BI content u can select which ever object u want and then select the collection mode as all the objects before and after....
    this will ideally activate all the objects that are required for the functionin of the object that you have selected .......
    In simpler way....
    RSA1-> Business Contents-> Select your objects-> On the right hand side, select "automatic collection" under "collection mode" and Select "before and after data flow" -> Right Click the selected objects on the left hand side and right click -> Insert Objects for collection-> Once the selected objects comes to the right hand side, select "install" and click "install in background".

  • _h and _v Content, Best Practice

    Hello
    while i am working on the same content of an article as _h and _v, i noticed in _h i added 7 pages while in the _v there are 6 pages,
    and i relised this is not good to get the perfect result.
    so i add one more page in the _v, and started to change the size of the images so the contents goes to page 7.
    i was able to do that, and then i noticed that the 14th subtitle in the _h is in the 5th page and the same subtitle in the _v is in the 6the page.
    is this normal? or do i have to math the content so the reader when rotatiting will get the same result so he can folow reading.

  • Business component best practices

    I am rewriting an existing PHP application in ADF. Database is large and used in production. Current DB tables do not use many foreign keys. Should I create the custom associations manually in Business Components or create them in the database have BC creation process pick up the association automatically. What's the best practice around this?
    -saidul

    Foreign key are a vital part of the busines logic as they show how entities are wired together. I prefer to have them in the DB as all applications (adf or not) are forced to obey them. This helps to keep the data consistent.
    Now if you are aleady in production, you should first check if you can apply the foreign key constrains without breaking your other running apps.
    If you implement the associations in ADFbc you might hit some data which you can't save as the checks implied by ADFbc can't be met by the data.

  • Flash Alternative Content ~ Best Practice ~ Safari on iOS Devices ~ iPad iPhone iPod Touch

    Hi Folks,
    Is there a documented best practice for providing alternate content for Flash in Safari on iOS devices?
    I am getting white space where my Flash animation would normally appear, and management is displeased. I need to display alternative content in this space. I'm hopeful that Adobe has published a best practice for how to accomplish this.
    tyvm
    Keith

    Not sure about Adobe official stance but they have started using swfobject Flash detection to place Flash <objects> on the Web page. The problem I see with the Adobe implementation is that about the only alternate content they recommend is "Click here to download the latest version of Flash player".
    That is about the lamest alternate content you could possibly imagine! Just because you recommend that your viewers download the new version.... doesn't mean they will... so they still go without REAL alternate content.
    A MUCH BETTER use of swfobject is to actually provide alternate content! For your review::
    If you think that Flash is somehow bad for SEO, it's time to dispell that MYTH!
    If fact, in some circumstances I'll use Flash INSTEAD of just HTML because then I'll have better SEO than with just HTML alone.
    http://www.worldbarefootcenter.com/
    The link to World Barefoot Center in the above post is just one example. View the source code and you see a couple paragraphs of text along with regular HTML links.... but what displays is the Flash version of the image and Flash links.
    The client provided the artwork for the page... and that's what they wanted to use a .jpg image. Well yes, that could be done in HTML but it would be virtually invisible to Google. So Instead I converted the image into a Flash .swf and used swfobject to display the Flash. swfobject allows you to create alternate content inside the <div> which also holds the Flash .swf, then when the page is loaded it detects if the browser has the Flash pluggin. If it does, it displays just the Flash content, if not, it displays the alternate content. Since almost everyone has the Flash pluggin, for most people the Flash version of the <div> will display.
    The alternate content for that <div> can be any regular HTML text, images, media player, links, etc., anything that you would use if you were not using the Flash. Now the best part is that the alternate content can be "over the top" as far as optimizing for SEO, since it will not be seen by most viewers.
    Here's another example of SEO with Flash.. again, the page is just a single image provided by the client:
    http://www.ksowetsuits.com/
    View the source code. The alt content is paragraph after paragraph of information about the site, including lists and links. If it was just the HTML, it might be kind of a boring Home page. But for SEO I can go "over the top" in promoting the site, since most viewers will never see that part... but it's all indexed by search engines. The end result is BETTER SEO using Flash than just HTML.
    On another Web site, a Flash video is displayed, the alt content is the complete text narration of the video. Now how many people would take the time to read that if they could just watch the video instead?? again, better SEO with Flash than without. In fact in one case we had first page search result from that video narration within 4 hours of posting the page.
    On still another site with a Flash video, the alt content is another video, but a .mov version, which will, in effect play Flash video on the iPhone (not possible you say??). Well since the iPhone does not have Flash pluggin, it simply displays the .mov version of the video, while everyione else sees the Flash version.
    So anyway, if Flash is a part of your Web development, you should look into using swfobject and alternate content.
    http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/
    Best wishes,
    Eye for Video
    www.cidigitalmedia.com
    So it is and has been for a number of years now, very easy to provide alternate content for non Flash devices... and that includes text, images, and video.
    Best wishes,

  • Mapping Content Best Practice

    Anyone got suggestions on best practice for mapping contents...
    a) create a lot of mappings - almost 1 for each table, dim, etc;
    b) put many items into logically grouped mappings (e.g. staging static data extract, staging fact extract, etc)
    c) somewhere in between - most staging stuff gets chucked together, major dimension/fact refresh has its own mapping, possibly put many related smaller dims (status, etc) in one mapping, etc..
    I assume the considerations are parallel execution, monitoring, maintenance/clarity, simplifying process flows, etc.
    I suppose I'd go for c), but if anyone can suggest things to avoid that'd be good!

    Hi Chewy,
    Mapping composition is not an exact science, as you state yourself.
    The problem also extends to workflows and workflow subprocess division.
    I've made some core rules for myself, that may work for others too:
    1) If I want to be able to reload a target in case of problems, it should be in a separate mapping.
    2) Generally, each target file has its own mapping. If several disconnected flows have the same target, I put them in the same mapping.
    3) If I split a single source into multiple targets, I generally use a single mapping for that
    4) If flows are complex (have many operators), I never put two or more together. If your 3600x4800px monitor can't display all of your mapping, you're on wrong track.
    5) If I want to sequence simple flows and don't care about 1) or which one runs first (10gR1 caveat), I put them into the same mapping. Eg. when the source cannot handle concurrent queries well.
    When it comes to workflows, things get more complicated.
    In my current project, most source data moves through three modules: staging, ods (relational), and data mart (star schema). I have two requirements for packaging mappings into workflow subprocesses:
    1) There should be a subprocess per source module that transfers all data from the source to the staging area
    2) Each target (dim or cube) in the data mart should have a silo-type subprocess that handles the data from staging through ods into the data mart. Rule 1) from mappings applies here, as well.
    To do this efficiently, you should have a PL/SQL function that checks eg. if the source loaded successfully into staging before commencing with target loading.

  • Business Content Best Practise

    Hi Guys
    Just a quick request -
    I have activated BC a couple of times, but each time it takes longer than it should - missing certain areas, activate far too much etc.
    Apart from 'help.sap.com.', does anyone have any Best Practise guides or docs on BC, to allow me to cut down on my activation.
    Thanks.

    Hi Scott,
    I would really commont only to activate with only necassary objects (befor and after is very painfull). Just collect the data structures like DataSource, InfoSource, DataStore Object, InfoCube, ..., Queries (then all Infoobjects gets collected). Then collected the linkages (tranfer rules, transformations, etc.) - these can easily be found in the help menue. after the collection activate it in batch.
    best regards clemens

  • Is construction of webi directly in production a best practice?

    with bex-query and universes well consolidated and tested by a IT group,
    can be considered the construction of webis directly in production without going through test and quality a Business Objects best practice?
    is possible allow end-users (non IT personal) construct this webis?
    Is there a document of good practices that SAP made this recommendation?.
    thanks in advance by the answer.
    Ramón Mediero

    If universe and all has been tested and signed-off; also end user are familiar with Webi report development and they want their ad-hoc reports instead of pre-developed report set; There will be no issue to allowing end user to develop the Webi reports in production. However there we have to take care of few points like
    > need to check where report creation in production's public folder is feasible or not ? If yes how? is we need to create separate folders for individual user or what else ? and if No then what will be alternative like they can create in favorite folder?
    > also we need to take control on number of report that users will create. however may be users will create so many reports with huge amount of data refreshes and etc and PROD will face performance issues etc etc...
    like this there can be so many considerations needs to consider
    Hope this will give u some idea...

  • Best Practice in using Business Packages

    Hi All,
    Are there any Best Practices in the use of Business Package content?   Do you assign the Roles delivered by the Business Package and do you make changes to the original iViews?
    or
    Do you copy the content delivered in the Business Package to a new folder and work with there?
    These questions are purely at the configuration level and not at the Java coding level.   For instance if I want to turn of the iView Tray, or change a parameter such as height, or even remove an iView from a page or Role.
    I would like to know the various approaches the SDN community uses and the different challenges and benefits that result in each approach.
    Look forward to hearing from you all
    Paul

    Hi Paul,
    I also build my own roles. The only time I might use the standard roles is for demo purposes early in a project.  You will find that in some cases the business packages like MSS don't always even include standard roles, so you have no choice but to build.
    I never change any of the standard iViews/Pages/Worksets - ever.
    The most contentious issue seems to be whether to do a full or delta link copy of the standard objects.  I tend to initially do a full copy of the objects into a custom folder set in the PCD and modify those. Then I only use delta links from Page to iViews where I need the option of setting different properties for the same iView if it appears in multiple pages.  Delta links can be a bit flakey at times, so I tend to only use them where I have to.  I suspect that I may get to a point where I don't use them at all.
    Just my 2 cents worth....

    John

  • Best Practice to implement Business Packages

    Hello All,
    Need some clarification -
    What is the best practice to implement ESS/MSS Business Package onto Portal -
    (1) Should I just import and configure the content     OR
    (2) Should I import, create a copy and then configure it? If yes, are there any points to be kept in mind?
    All blogs/articles that have been published show to configure the standard content.
    The requirement is to maintain a different prefix/namespace for each Portal content that comes along the business package?
    Thanks,

  • Need best practice when accessing an ucm content after being transferred.

    Hi All,
    I have a business requirement where I need to auto-transfer the content to another UCM when this content expires in the source UCM.
    This content needs to be deleted after it spends a certain duration in the target UCM.
    Can anybody advise me the best practice to do this in the Oracle UCM?
    I have set up an expiration date and trying to auto Replicate the content to the target UCM once the content reaches the expiration date.
    I am not aware of the best practice to access the content when it is in the target UCM?
    Any help in this case would be greatly appreciated.

    SR,
    Unfortunately temp tables are the way to go. In Apex we call them collections (not the same as PL/SQL collections) and there's an API for working with them. In other words, the majority of the leg work has already been done for you. You don't have to create the tables or worry about tying data to different sessions. Start you learning here:

  • Business Package for SAP Best Practices for Enterprise Portal

    Hi,
    We are implementing EP for ECC 5.0 and we have to web enable some FI transactions like FB50/fb60 etc. We want to use standard business package for this. The only business package that caters this requirement is "Business Package for SAP Best Practices for Enterprise Portal 60.1". When i checked the data source for this business package, the specification is for "SAP R/3 4.6B and above". Does this work for ECC 5.0 as well? In general does the R/3 specific business packages work for ECC versions? Please let me know. Thanks for the help.  I promise rewards.
