Calculatged field of a nested field in linked lookup

Hi
I have the following situation
Calculated field --> Lookup table --> field (lookup table) --> field
Calculated field --> Customer Hierarchy --> Branch --> Code
and if you look on the calculated expression is:
"Customer Hierarchy [Branch] & 4 digits generated sequentially"
the problem is that branch is a lookup and i don't want to get the default field but a other field from this lookup.
if it was java it was something like this
"Customer Hierarchy [Branch].Code & 4 digits generated sequentially"
Were "Code" is a field inside Branch
What is the solution?
Thanks
Noam

Hi Noam,
I am assuming that your scenario is as given below:
1. You have a Field (Let us say CH) in your main table refering to a "Customer Hierarchy" (Hierarchy table).
2. This Customer Hierarchy table has a field "BR" and the field type of this field is "Lookup[Flat]" and the lookup is to another flat table "Branch".
3. You created a calculated field on your main table with a reference to the field that has Lookup to Customer Hierachy.
4. You are trying to create a calculation expression on this field with a reference to field CH. But, you also want to bring the "Code" in the table "Branch".
Calculation Expression currenctly supports selection of all fields to one level -> In your case, you can select all the fields available in your Customer Hierarchy table while rering to "CH" field. So, all the fields in the "Fields" drop down of your calculation Expression editor will be CH[Field 1 in Customer Hierarchy], CH[Field 2 in Customer Hierarchy], CH[BR] etc.
Here, you will be able to see only the field "BR" but not all the fields in the "Branch" Lookup table. By default, the "CH[BR]" field will hold the value corresponding to the "DISPLAY FIELD" of the underlying "Branch" table. If you want to get another value ( "Code" in your case), you need to change this field to be "Display Field" in the underlying Lookup table.
Hope the above explanation (eventhough it may be confusing...:) ) helps you.
Please let me know in case I understood it completely wrong !

Rajani Kumar

Cannot fields of objects nested in a Datacontrol in UIX

Every time I drag & drop (as a table) a DataControl that has several normal fields and also some nested objects, on a UIX page, I can see while running the application all of the values associated to the fields, but I have no way to see values/fields that come from any of the nested objects.
Debugging the application I can see those values in the fields of the nested objects.
If I drag & drop only the nested object, I can see in a table the fields of that object. Nevertheless, I don't have any clue that allows me to see together normal fields and those that comes from a nested object.
My architecture uses TopLink/DAO at the lower level, bussiness logic in a EJB Session and ADF UIX.
I'll appreciate any help.

Have you amended the documentation ? I found nothing changed in the documentation (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce72/helpdata/en/55/ac4d7cce104248a44e7a972944a58b/content.htm). Counld you tell me the link of the documentation amended by you?

Link a Form Field to new Text Field

PDF - form field
Looking for a code to link a form field(text_1, on page #5) to
another, new form field(text_2, on pages 2-4).
Maybe a "Page Properties" action (i.e., Page Open: field text_2 = field text_1)
~~
Why....
busy but here's why
In the PDF, there are Form fields on page 5 which interface (externalinterface) with an RMA ( a SWF) on page 2.
This all works well.
As the form fields must be carried forward (from page 5 to page 2... to interface the RMA),
the orignal page 5, From fields are copied to pages 2-4 and then "Hidden".
Again, this works just fine.
A reset "action" (button) was added to, well, clear the Form Field for easy reuse.
The reset ''action' does it's job and clears ALL form fields with the same "Name".... on every /all pages.
This causes the dynamic interface, with the RMA, to display blank fields (within the SWF).
This will effect the User's experience.
~~
Work aound.....
Find a way to label the Form Fields (page 5) so that "only they" are reset, and no others.
Create a link of Form Field inputs on page 5 (with names... x,y,z),
to new Form Fields pages 2-4 (with a differnet names... a,b,c).
Thanks in advance for your help....

Hi jm,
This may be what you are after. No text wrap, but notes are there.
Type an account number into the Enquire table to get Client and Contact
Formula in B2 (and Fill Right)
=INDEX(Database::B,MATCH($A2,Database::$A,0))
Large notes display table with Wrap Text
Formula is
=INDEX(Database::D,MATCH(Enquire::$A2,Database::A,0))
All together:
Change it around if you want to look up by Client instead of Account

Accessing the variable in field symbol of nested internal table

Hi,
I am unable to access the variable in field symbol.
The data in field symbol has nested structure. We need to access a variable in nested structure.
Please find the code below:
      LOOP AT <i_fincorp> into <fs_fincorp>.
        l_madefor = <FS_FINCORP>-data_UI-ZZ0010.
      ENDLOOP.
datatype of <i_fincorp> is type any table and <fs_fincorp> is type any.
there is a structure 'data_ui' in <i_fincorp> and we need value of field 'ZZ0010' in data_ui structure.
But, we are getting syntax error for statement in loop stating "There is no component like 'data_ui' in <fs_fincorp>".
Can anyone please help me solving this issue.
Regards,
Santosh

So simply access it dynamically
data: nested_field type c length 50.
field-symbols <nested_field> type any.
"build the nested field name dynamically
concatenate
       'DATA_UI'    "first give structure name
       'ZZ0010' "then give field name (all in uppercase!)
into nested_field
separated by '-'. "now you have DATA_UI-ZZ0010
"so assing this nested field
LOOP AT <i_fincorp> into <fs_fincorp>.
   assign component (nested_field) of structure <fs_fincorp> into <nested_field>.
ENDLOOP.

Possible bug? Nested tables and quantity fields in the nested table.

Hey guys,
I have witnessed a weird bug, maybe someone can clarify this for me.
1. Create a nested table. The inner table contains a quantity field of type DZIEME (FROM VBAP-ZIEME).
2. Create your interface and just put this table in the import section. Try to activate. It will work.
3. Create an adobe form for it and a program and execute it. You'll get a short dump saying that VBAP-ZIEME is unknown and that there are errors in the dynamically generated function.
Second test.
1. Create a nested table. The outer table contains a quantity field of type DZIEME (FROM VBAP-ZIEME).
2. Create your interface and just put this table in the import section. Try to activate. It will NOT work.
You have to make the addition of the quantity fields in Currency/Quantity Fields.
From this I see that the checker, doesn't look into nested tables for quantity/currency fields and just activates the interface.
Third test
1. Create a nested table. The inner table contains a quantity field of type DZIEME (FROM VBAP-ZIEME).
2. Create your interface:
2.a. Put this table in the import section.
2.b. Declare the nested Quantity field in the Currency/Quantity Fields section, using the autofiller (the buttons to the right of the field)
2.c Try to activate. It will work.
3. Create an adobe form for it and a program and execute it. You'll get a short dump which for some reason has no info.
From this, I understand that the Currency/Quantity Fields section may not declare the quantity fields, from nested tables, correctly.
What do you guys think? What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,

@Anne Kathrine P...
By nested tables I mean creating table types, in the dictionary (se11) then in the interface>Import section adding a parameter X TYPE B_T.
i.e.
Structure A
Table type of structure A, A_T
Structure B containing a field of table type A
Table type B of structure B, B_T.
The issue can be easily solved for Z tables by changing the component type from quantity to decimal type.

Add field group and Logical field group for ANLU

Hi all,
On my project, the table ANLU is containing many specifics fields.
I would like to know how I could add a field group and logical field group corresponding to this specifics fields on ANLU, in order to be taking into account on my validation rule ?
On the GGB0, Asset Accounting / master data, the check point includes the ANLU on the table fields. But, once my rule created, when I want to activate it on the TCODE OACV, the field group proposed don't include data from ANLU (only ANLA and ANLB)
I found out the TCODE OAVM listing all different field linked to the field group. Does it possible to manage this view ?
please help me !!

Can a field validation point to fields of another record type?

Field Validation based on another Record Type Field
I am trying to build validation into a custom object that sums fields under the Account record type.
The names of the fields from OBI (the table location and field name):
"- Account Custom Metrics".S_INT_13+"- Account Custom Metrics".S_INT_14+"- Account Custom Metrics".S_INT_11
My questions: can a field validation point to fields of another record type? My thought was that if OBI can look across record types than all of CRM should be able to, including field validations.
Thank you,
David

Hi !
I'm afraid this is not possible for the moment. You'll have to wait for the Release 16 I think to have such possibilities.
The R16 will allow you to create workflow rules accross different record types (e.g. Create a task on the Account linked to the service request when a new service request is created). I hope there will be the same possibilities with the validation rules...
Hope this will help, feel free to ask more.

Move values of one field symbol to other field symbol of different structur

Hi all,
i need to move values of one field symbol to other field symbol of different structure.
I need to perform operations like MOVE-CORRESPONDING on two field symbols of different structure.
How can i achieve this?
field symbol 1 have 2 field and field symbol2 have 4 fields....
Best Regards,
Vijay.

Hi,
You can use -
MOVE-CORRESPONDING <struct1> to <struc2>.
In this case it will move the contents of the components from struct1 to struct2 that has identical names.
You can refer this link also-

Not able to see Metadata fields when adding the fields to the rule in UCM

Not able to see Metadata fields when adding the fields to the rule even after creating them in information fields of configuration manager.It is happening for few fields only.We are using 10.1.3 version of UCM.Kindly provide a solution if any.

Dhilipan,
I am trying to setup AES at the current Customer.
You are right on LR_JP to be linked to customs code list instead of ACE and I do achieve that if I were to maintain the Custom code list by maintaining the assignment for EAR in a separate test.
I was infact trying to follow the link: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/30c7015e-c191-2d10-71b9-95907dc8edd1?overridelayout=t…
On this document, if you look at page# 14 thru 17, it has the steps I described in my original note with customs code still appearing in the drop down for 'EXCPT' for EAR.
Nevertheless, I wanted to default Type = C50 when the license type for the line on the Customs declaration is 'EXCPT' but if you see the very last screen-shot below, even though the license type configuration has default value as 'C50' it did not get pulled into the line item Documents tab when I tried to pick the category as 'CUII'.
Let me know your thoughts on defaulting the data into Customs declaration for AES filing.
What I want to achieve is the following:
When License type is 'EXCPT', system should default the type as 'C50'
Should put the License type 'EXCPT' into the number field
Should put the actual License# 'ENC' into the Supplement field
Should put the ECCN # '5A002' into the Details field
Thanks,
Prashant.

How to Add parameter fields in BI publisher fields

Hi,
I'm creating xml report for Apps standard Trial Balance Summary, here i cant able to run the .rdf locally due to SRW.UserExit .
So i got the XML file from output of the report.
Then i added the xml data in BI publisher and then i have created the .rtf for that.
Here i need to add some fields which is not available in fields list (in BI Publisher).
How to add that fields, or is possible to add fields manually.
That fields are given as parameters while running the .rdf file.
Please tell me how to solve this problem.
Is possible to add fields manually means tell me how to do that.

If those fields are input parameters to the concurrent program then you can display them in RTF by declaring and printing it as
<?param@begin:P_CONC_PARAM?>
and display it as <?$P_CONC_PARAM?> - Note P_CONC_PARAM should match your parameter token

Key fields and non-key field of condition table

Hello Gurus,
what is key fields and non-key field of condition table?
thanks very much!

Key field
Each condition table contains keys that can be used for creating dependent condition records.
for example let take condition type PR00.
PR00 uses access sequence PR02 .
Access sequence PR02 has following tables associated with it namely 304, 305 & 306
When you create a conditon record for PR00 with transaction VK11 or VK31, you have a button 'key combination' which is nothing but fields associated with tables 304, 305 & 306.
In brief, Condition records are always created using specific keys. Condition tables are used to define the structure of the keys of a condition record.
Non key field
For example take condition table 144 - sales deal basic data.
Table 144 is associated with access sequence PBUD.
If you check the fields associated with this table (click technical view button), there are three fields at bottom which do not have 'key' check mark -KDATU, PLTYP, KSTAF
So, when you create a condition record for PBUD, system does not propose these 3 fields in 'key combination' and hence are non key fields.
Please reward points for good answers as this would help increase the total donation that SAP will make to the United Nations World Food Programme.

Expanding text fields not moving next fields down the page

I have a multi-page form with several comment boxes that I want to be expandable (if needed). I've managed to get them to expand, but the fields following the field that is expanding dynamically are not bumping down the page. I've gone through and read about different things to try and use (flowed, western, expand to fit, etc), but the fields following the expanding fields are not moving.
I can send the form I am using to anyone who has a suggestion. I am confused with the hierarchy and where stuff needs to go in order to work correctly.
Thanks.

Hi, it is highly recommended that you create subforms in your form. By creating parts in your form you should create subforms for each of those parts. For the textfield you are trying to make it expandable and flowable to the next page, you must make every of its parents flowed. Your main page is actually set to positioned, even if your subform containing the textfield is flowed, if each of its parents are set to flowed it should work, otherwise it will not flow to next page.
If you set your page to flowed, it will reposition each of your fields because it is not in subforms. Make sure to create subforms for each parts, putting all fields in subforms. If you set your main page to flowed without creating subforms, all of your fields will be redesigned to be aligned left with the hierarchy order.
Hope this help.

Set maximum size in Text Form Field Options for a field in bi publisher RTF

Hi All,
How to set maximum size in Text Form Field Options for a field in bi publisher RTF.
I have a RTF whch is having a field in that i need to add some validation condition but after adding certain condition in Add help text tab ,it is not accepting after certain length, how i can increase the length to unlimited,please help me on this
Thnaks

Form fields have some restrictions if your are using version lower than 11g.
They can accommodate only 393 chars. You can add the text in both status bar and help key, which can in total consume 393 chars.
If your code logic is more than that, it can be split into multiple form fields as Avinash suggested or you can use sub template logic and handle coding over there. Again in sub template code can be within/outside form fields.
So there is no option for user to increase the size of form field.

Task custom field and formula custom field don't correspond Project Server 2013

Hi people, I have an interesting case in Project Server 2013 SP1 CU Apr:
I have a custom task number field called AM. This field get's filled by a PSI action with actual material costs from an external system.
I also have a custom task cost formula field that is called AM*. This field is a formula field that has the formula [AM]. And summary tasks use the formula field as well.
As soon as I create a project, assign costs in the external system and let PSI fill the values within AM I get correct values in AM. But nothing is calculated on AM*. If I edit the project in the browser and publish, check in and revisit the project
AM* still isn't filled.
If I open the project in MS Project Pro the calculation comes through nicely, however I do not want to use MS project Pro to see correct data in browser.
Some tests I have already done:
I have noticed that when I create a new calculated task field AM2*, this get's calculated correctly on the already existing task.
I have also noticed that opening the custom field in server settings and just saving the field creates correct values on AM*.
What is going on? I don't want to save the custom formula field every day... There are 11 custom formula fields in the environment at the moment.

Hi Gary,
Thank you for the quick response. Please note that the fieldnames are [AM] and [AM*]. There is a difference in field name due to the astrix. However I did think about the situation and changing one of the field names all together didn't do anything for the
situation at hand.
It looks like some kind of refresh thing, because without changing anything in the custom field just saving the field in server settings will turn op good values. However, values already turned up good in Project Professional 2013. And that suggest
that there is a calculation error on the PWA side wouldn't you say?
Anyway, thank you for taking time to look into this matter.

How to get additional field from the second list base on lookup information column ?

Hi everyone,
Currently I created a SharePoint hosted Apps project and I need to know how can I get additional field from the second list base on lookup information column. example List1 Have 2 columns column1 and column2(Lookup Information from list2 (category)),
List2 have 3 columns title, and category, and color. so how can get the title and color from list2 base on this lookup information column (SharePoint Hosted apps and Javascript code)? that is possible?
Best regards,
------------------------------------------------------------ ---Tola---

You can build one custom lookup control. Refer to the following post
http://www.stuartroberts.net/index.php/2012/10/03/enhanced-lookup-field-part-1/
Alternatively, try the following solution from codeplex
