Change DataSource of fields via code

Hey there,
is it possible to change the properties Name and FormulaName of the FieldObject programmatically (c#)? Both properties are readonly. We need to replace the fieldnames of many reports which contain a big count of fields. We don't want to do it in the designer, because this would be very time expensive.
Is there a possibility to change the DataSource of the FieldObject programmatically? Or is it possible to remove fields and add new fields to the report (programmatically)?
Thank you in advance.
Kind regards from Germany
Markus

Hi Markus,
No and maybe.... You can't change the reference of a specific field at runtime, the Auto-field Mapping function kicks in and it simply deletes the fields it can't find in the data source info.
You can however clone the object, delete it and then make changes to the cloned object and then .Add to put the field back in place...

Changing panels XY position via code ?

Hi
Here is Some info about my program.
i have a main panel on which i create about 15 child panels and each child panel has a canvas control on it.
i created a scrollbar which moves the xy position of each panel.
i could not use the standard panel scroll bar because it is does not allow the amout child panels that i need that is why im rotating the 15 panels.
Could someone please explain to me why when i change the childs panels xy position the display updates the panels position so slowly ?
and how could i speed this up?
Thanks

Help share your knowlegde

Hello,
Could you also post your code, so that we can see closely how you are implementing this? What version of CVI are you using? At what point does the time delay occur and how long is this delay? Note also this Knowledge Base:

Change datasource of Crystal Report via code

Hi all!
I'm developing partner solution for SAP B1 8.8 in C# and prepared some nice crystal reports. But they are bound to my default database for now. I want to include them to my installation file and change saved datasource location (Server, Company Name, User name, User password) in my installation script as soon as I get this values, entered by user. But I don't know the way how to change datasource in rpt file. I've tried the following:
using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine;
ReportDocument rDoc = new ReportDocument();
rDoc.Load(@"C:\Temp\Report2.rpt");
rDoc.DataSourceConnections[0].SetConnection("Server", "SBOTest", "manager", "manager");
rDoc.SaveAs(@"C:\Temp\Report3.rpt");
rDoc.Close();
but it save no changes to rpt file.
I think, this thread belongs mostly to Development/SDK thread, because here most of the people make programs and potentially met this problem in the past.

public void SetCrystalLogin(string sUser, string sPassword, string sServer, string sCompanyDB, CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument oRpt)
            CrystalDecisions.Shared.ConnectionInfo oConnectInfo = new CrystalDecisions.Shared.ConnectionInfo();
            oConnectInfo.DatabaseName = sCompanyDB;
            oConnectInfo.ServerName = sServer;
            oConnectInfo.UserID = sUser;
            oConnectInfo.Password = sPassword;
            // Set the logon credentials for all tables
            SetCrystalTablesLogin(oConnectInfo, oRpt.Database.Tables);
            // Check for subreports
            foreach (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Section oSection in oRpt.ReportDefinition.Sections)
                foreach (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportObject oRptObj in oSection.ReportObjects)
                    if (oRptObj.Kind == CrystalDecisions.Shared.ReportObjectKind.SubreportObject)
                        // This is a subreport so set the logon credentials for this report's tables
                        CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.SubreportObject oSubRptObj = oRptObj as CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.SubreportObject;
                        // Open the subreport
                        CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument oSubRpt = oSubRptObj.OpenSubreport(oSubRptObj.SubreportName);
                        SetCrystalTablesLogin(oConnectInfo, oSubRpt.Database.Tables);
            oRpt.Refresh();
            oRpt.SetDatabaseLogon(sUser, sPassword, sServer, sCompanyDB, false);
            oRpt.VerifyDatabase();
            oRpt.Refresh();
        private void SetCrystalTablesLogin(CrystalDecisions.Shared.ConnectionInfo oConnectInfo, Tables oTables)
            foreach (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table oTable in oTables)
                CrystalDecisions.Shared.TableLogOnInfo oLogonInfo = oTable.LogOnInfo;

View creation and populating key figure to datasource appended field

Hi
the data we want is like in 4 tables
J_3GVERSI + EQUZ + ILOA+ ANLC
HOW should i create a view on these four tables .
j_3gversi _ equnr
equz - equnr, iloan
iloa- iloan(key), comp code,asset no,asset subno
anlc- comp code asset no asset sub no
my two key figure values are in J_3gversi , and 1 more keyfigure i will append it to my datasource on this view and the value for this will be obtained if i give 5 field values( from ANLC(table), compcode,asset no ,asset subnumbr, fiscal year and depreciatio area in where condition for select statement in cmod .)
to give these 5 values in the where condition in my cmod code for my datasource I tried to make this view.
i have linked
j_3gversi with equz - using equnr
equz with iloa- using ILOAN ( since my asset no and asset sub number in this table is linked to equipment number using ILOAN field)
ILOA with ANLC- using ( company code, asset number and asset subnumber)
though the field names are different for my asset number and subnumber in both the tables , they have same data element(component) -
IS it fine to join two tables with fields having different field names but same component.
asset number field name is in ILOA-anlnr and ANLC-anln1 though component type is same - anln1 for both
similarly asset subnumber has like ILOA- anlun and ANLC- anln2 with same component type-anln2
now in cmod for the function module i am writing select statement like this
code in cmod for transaction data
when mydatasource
loop c_t_data into lv_ctdata3
1.     SELECT SINGLE * FROM anlc WHERE bukrs EQ lv_data3-bukrs AND
2.                                     anln1 EQ LV_DATA3-anln1 AND
3.                                     anln2 EQ LV_DATA3-anln2 AND
4.                                     gjahr EQ Lv_data-gjahr AND
5.                                     afabe EQ '01 ' .
6.     IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0 .
7.       CALL FUNCTION 'FI_AA_VALUES_CALCULATE'
8.         EXPORTING
9.           i_anlc = anlc
10.         IMPORTING
11.           e_anlcv = l_anlcv.
12.     ENDIF.
lv_data3-nbw =l_anlcv-nbw.
modify c_t_dat from lv_data3
end loop

Hi ,
IS it fine to join two tables with fields having different field names but same component.
1.Yes we do this many times .We combine fields having different names but functionally they are the key values to match .
No issue with that untill they are in same format and you want to match data based on those fields .
HOW should i create a view on these four tables .
2.For view you can create view on 2-3 tables with matching fields and for complex logic you can populate additional fields via CMOD code .

Open a draft report via Code

How could I open an saved Draft report via API/UI.
I have draft an report via API/UI and now I would show this report on Desktop/SAP
I would open it via code
z.B. application.forms.items("")
because I get the Docnum of my before safed draft but It wouldn´t shown at the SAP now so I have to open it via code

Sorry for my first Miss Understandable explanation.
Ok let me explain the other times.
I have a parked document, I want this now to open it via code (programming).
I have this code today:
programspeach: vb.net
we assume we have a sales order and press now via code the menu option "Save as a parked document"
' to change the sales order in a parked document
appl.ActivateMenuItem(("5907"))
' Information: MY_FormUID = the sales order before
' Change DocNum in DocEntry
oRSTRDocData.DoQuery(("SELECT max(DocEntry) FROM ODRF WHERE DocNum=" & Value))
appl.Forms.Item(MY_FormUID).Items.Item("txtDraft").Specific.Value = oRSTRDocData.Fields.Item(0).Value
' take the DocEntry
Value = oRSTRDocData.Fields.Item(0).Value
'open parked Document via DocEntry and let it show
appl.Forms.Item(MY_FormUID).Items.Item("lnkDraft").Click(SAPbouiCOM.BoCellClickType.ct_Linked)
' Close the Sales Order before
appl.Forms.Item(OLD_FormUID).Close()
After this there is no Document opened, also not the parked Document
So yet I have an parked Document but when I open the SBO again there is no Document Opened? When I do this prozedere via SBO there will be at least the parked Document opened.
What do I wrong?

Stored Procedure parameter (@Carrier) used in report and can't be set via code

I have a report that has regular Crystal parameters that I am setting correctly via code. However, one report actually uses one of the database parameters from the stored procedure that the report was created from. It is the only report like this and I'm using the same code in an attempt to set it's value. Although no error is thown, if I look at the parameter value in the IDE it is set correctly, but the field on the report just shows up blank. I have changed the way the report is created. Previously, I used the report.export method to create the actual file via a stored procedure. Now, I'm running the stored procedure first and creating a datatable. This allows me to execute the SP only once to see if it has data, because only then do I want to create the actual report. I'm using the SetDataSource method to pass the datatable into Crystal and then using the report.export method to create the report with data. Everything seems to work, except this stored procedure parameter (@Carrier) is not actually being populated to display on the report.
Not sure what to look at. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Restricting HR Tables fields via auth object?

Happy Holiday's everyone!
We have a custom tcode for Pricing Admin report which currenltly only has S_Tcode for an auth obj. It was combined in a role that we removed the HR authorization from and apparently these were interdependent but undocumented. Now the pricing transacation no longer functions.
Instead of just adding back the missing HR authorizations back into the custom Tcode I'm being asked if we can restrict PA00002 (the table being called in the program) to first name, last name and personnel number fields. Is there an authorization object that will let me restrict in this manner or do I need send this back to the developers to write in the code?
Or can I restict to these fields via authorization groups (something we are looking into implementing more next year).
Thanks
Kris Wise

That is a bad omen for the next year...
Try to change the code this year still to deliver only the fields you want from the infotype or go for an "existence check" which no authorization requirements as that is what you seem to be wanting.
Being custom code, you should post the problematic part to discuss a solution.
Cheers,
Julius

Performing filter for field Tax Code (MWSKZ) in the Purchase Order

Hello Experts,
We have to perform a filter for field Tax Code in the purchase order (ME21N / ME22N / ME23N). We've tried to use SH SH_T007A and SSH_T007A with search help exit (e.g. F4_TAXCODE_USER_EXIT) but it is not working. The ABAP programmer has performed a debug and the standard does not check any line code in this function (the ABAP programmer has set a breakpoint into function F4_TAXCODE_USER_EXIT after assigning it for mentioned search helps)... it sounds like this program / search help is not called by standard program of ME2* transactions...
I've tried to look for some other object and other function called FI_F4_MWSKZ has been found... I've set a breakpoint there and when I open the search help for field tax code into transaction ME21N it works... but as I could see this function FI_F4_MWSKZ is a standard one which we can not change...
Have you ever had the same problem?
We are currently in the SAP 4.6C version. I've found lots of OSS notes but only valid for 6.0.
Maybe someone can help me on that.
Best regards,
Nilmar

hi,

QM03-Custom tab-Change to text field not reflecting-FG - XQQM-screen-0106

Hi,
I have a requirement to change the text field on a custom tab of QM03 transaction. Quality notification type is Z1 and the tab is "Checklist". Both are custom defined.
The existing text field is of 3 lines. The new text message is of 8 lines. When I did the changes on the custom screen 0106 in the function group XQQM, the changes are not reflected on the QM03 transaction's custom tab. Only first 3 lines were reflecting the change and rest of the 5 lines are not appearing on the screen.
Pointers on this will be definitely helpful.
Regards,
Mallika.

I had a similar problem, but it was with the message line. I found that with Web Forms, I had to issue the Synchronize; a second time, but in Client/Server Forms 6i, the first synchronize worked. Here is the code I used:
<pre><font face = "Lucida Console, Courier New, Courier, Fixed" size = "1" color = "navy"> SYNCHRONIZE;
if Get_Application_Property(User_Interface) = 'WEB' then
synchronize;--first does not work on web

Let us know if this works.

How to change datasource name based on the partition in configplan

Hi
Can any one please give me some solutions regarding how to change datasource name based on the partition in
configplan.
can't we do this in configuration plan?

If you want to change template based on parameter. you have to use below syntax
v_layout boolean
V_LAYOUT:= FND_SUBMIT.add_layout(template_appl_name => 'SQLAP' -- application short name
,template_code => 'HUBAPAPN' -- template name
,template_language => 'en'
,template_territory => '00'
,output_format => 'PDF');
Above can be used in plsql stored procedure before submitting Concurrent Program (Bi Publisher report) or may be you can try to add this code in Oracle reports after report or before report trigger
Thanks
