Checking for a hidden characteristic

Hello,
I am trying to get information from BAPIs regarding hidden characteristics. When I use the BAPI_CHARACT_GETDETAIL, I get the correct information about a characteristic being hidden (No Display).
I have a situtation where a class overwrites this value and thus hiding the characteristic. Inspite of using BAPI_CLASS_GET_CHARACTERISTICS and BAPI_CLASS_GETDETAIL, the correct information regarding the hidden value of the characteristic is not given. I always see the value as unchecked (i.e, no X for No Display), although I know that this class forces the characteristic to be hidden.
How do I get this information from the BAPI as it doesn't seem to work? Have any others tried this?

Hi Tamás!
I actually was already thinking of OSS but though would rather ask the forums if anyone had the same problem before

GATP allocation check for configurable material with characteristic

Hi APO Gurus,
We are using configurable products and wanted to go for GATP allocation check based on Characteristics.
The scenario is goiven below,
All our products are configurable materials. At the entry of sales order , the characteristic values are updated and then the sales order is checked for GATP.
When the order come to APO-GATP for allocation check , here I want to check the allocation for configurable material.
But the allocation quantities are given for a combination of Configurable material and its characteristics.
How can we map such scenario?
Do I to create the CVC at family level that is configurable material level ?
How the characteristic values are considered in allocation.
Waiting for your reply.
regards,
Ravi

How do I allow offline use AND check for updates if online?

I am actually not sure if this is a bug or not, as the behavior changed when I updated from 1.6u20 to u21. I have an application in a single JAR, and a JNLP file. I am testing with Windows 7 64-bit (with both the 32- and 64-bit version of the JVM installed, 1.6u20-b06 on both). The application cache is enabled. Here is my JNLP file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="us-ascii"?>
<jnlp
spec="6.0+"
codebase="http://hidden"
href="Librarian.jnlp">
<information>
    <title>Librarian</title>
    <vendor>Vendor</vendor>
    <homepage href="http://hidden"/>
    <description>Description.</description>
    <offline-allowed/>
    <shortcut online="false">
      <desktop/>
      <menu submenu="Vendor"/>
    </shortcut>
    <icon href="Librarian.gif"/>
</information>
<security>
    <all-permissions/>
</security>
<resources>
    <j2se version="1.6+"/>
    <jar href="Librarian.jar" main="true"/>
</resources>
<application-desc main-class="com.vendor.apps.librarian.Librarian"/>
</jnlp>I am observing the following behavior wrt updates and allow-offline:
When allow-offline is present:
- JWS does not download updates to the JAR file when the desktop link is clicked.
- The application can run when I disable the network connection.
- The "-offline" switch is passed to javaw in the desktop shortcut.
When allow-offline is not present:
- JWS does download JAR updates when the desktop link is clicked.
- The application can not run when I disable the network connection (HostNotFoundException).
- The "-offline" switch is not passed to javaw in the desktop shortcut.
What I want to happen is for JWS to check for updates if it can, and if it times out, instead of barfing, just go ahead and run the cached version. What I can get right now is either no updates + offline allowed, or updates + offline disallowed. However, I can obtain the behavior I want if I specify allow-offline then hand-edit the desktop shortcut and remove "-offline":
When allow-offline is present but I remove "-offline" from the desktop shortcut:
- JWS does download updates to the JAR file.
- The application can run when I disable the network connection, after a short timeout.
Now, I was under the impression that this behavior is the intended behavior of allow-offline: attempt to download update, on error, silently start the cached version instead. This does not seem to be the case. I actually wonder if this is a bug, as with 1.6u20, it seemed to download JAR updates just fine when allow-offline was specified (I had issues when the cache was disabled with 1.6u20, and so I moved to u21).
How can I make this work the way I want without having to hand edit the desktop shortcut?
Is this a bug, or am I misconfiguring (OED says this is a real word!) the application?
Is there something else I have to do to indicate that the JAR is updated besides just uploading a new version to the server?
It should be noted that I am not doing any web page magic here, I'm testing by simply downloading the JNLP file off the server and opening it. This is actually my first JWS experience and I haven't gotten to properly embedding it in a web page yet. I do not know if this is significant or not.
Thanks!
M

Well, I solved that quick. I've been staring at it for over an hour but it popped out at me as soon as I looked at my JNLP file in my post here (guess it's the red text, heh).
All I need to do is set online="true" in the shortcut, and also specify allow-offline, and all works exactly as I want it to. :-)
Perhaps it was a bug in u20 that was causing it to check for updates anyways even with an offline shortcut... I'm not sure, and I don't have it in me to test it any more at the moment.
Thanks,
M

Page Process Does Not Work When Column for APEX_ITEM.HIDDEN is not shown

I have created a Report Region based on a SQl Query. In the query I have three columns that need to be within an array, but 2 of the 3 columns should not be displayed on the report. Therefore, I don't have Show checked for them in the Column Attributes of the Report Region.
In my testing, if I don't display the columns that are within the arrays on the report and run the page process to insert records into a table, I receive the error of "no data found". In reverse, if I display the columns, my insert is successful.
Is this how the arrays work? Or is there something I have not done correctly.
Below is the query for the Report:
SELECT APEX_ITEM.CHECKBOX(1,ROWNUM,'CHECKED')ATTENDED,
APEX_ITEM.HIDDEN(2,C.PARTY_ID) ID, -----this is the column I want to hide-----
APEX_ITEM.HIDDEN(3,C.PARTY_TYPE_CODE) PTYP, ----this is the column I want to hide----
C.PARTY_TYPE_CODE,
S.PERSON_ID,
S.PERSON_FIRST_NAME AS NAME,
C.PARTY_CASE_ID
FROM CASE.PARTY C
INNER JOIN DN.PERSON S
ON C.PARTY_ID = S.PERSON_ID
WHERE C.PARTY_CASE_ID = :P18_CDBCASE_ID
AND C.PARTY_SEQ_NO = :P18_SEQ
Thanks,
Keisha

Keisha,
If you uncheck the "show" option, then the corresponding HTML for that item is not rendered on the page. Thus, when you try to inspect that item via APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02, it simply doesn't exist.
One trick that I use when I want to have hidden items on the page, but not make them take up any space, is to concatenate them to items that will be visible.
Using your query as an example, I would re-write it like this:
SELECT APEX_ITEM.CHECKBOX(1,ROWNUM,'CHECKED')ATTENDED,
APEX_ITEM.HIDDEN(2,C.PARTY_ID)
|| APEX_ITEM.HIDDEN(3,C.PARTY_TYPE_CODE)
|| C.PARTY_TYPE_CODE PARTY_TYPE_CODE,
S.PERSON_ID,
S.PERSON_FIRST_NAME AS NAME,
C.PARTY_CASE_ID
FROM CASE.PARTY C
INNER JOIN DN.PERSON S
ON C.PARTY_ID = S.PERSON_ID
WHERE C.PARTY_CASE_ID = :P18_CDBCASE_ID
AND C.PARTY_SEQ_NO = :P18_SEQThus, the second APEX report column will contain the HTML for the hidden items PARTY_ID & PARTY_TYPE_CODE, as well as the value for PARTY_TYPE_CODE. When you submit the page, you should not encounter any issues.
Thanks,

Remove check table from a characteristic in CO-PA

Hello,
for one user defined characteristic in our operating concern, we would like to remove the related check & text table (T25**). We would like to keep the values and keep using the field, but without the additional controls of the check table;
Note 70623 helps a bit.
Does anybody have any experience with that kind of actions? Possible Consequences?
tx
Nico

Hi,
   You cannot remove the check table once values have been posted to the char. It is not possible to change the characteristic validation to 'no check' for a char to which values have been posted.
Let us assume that the user defined char is WWRGN
WORKAROUND:
If you wish to invalidate the check table then
1.) Remove the entries for fields CHTAB and CHFIE from the TKEF record   for WWRGN (that means FIENM = WWRGN) so that these fields are afterwards initial in table TKEF for the WWRGN record. In tcode SM30 you    can maintain the values for V_TKEF.
2.) Execute function module RKD_SHORT_TEXT_GENERATE for APPLCLASS = KE    so that program RK2FGPKE is regenerated.
Afterwards there should be no KE0C133 error any more for char WWRGN.

Waman

Authorization check for links on a page

We are trying to control whether links on a JSP page are displayed or hidden based on an authorization check.
We've already got the checks working on individual pages but not for the links within a page, because the security framework does not list links as their own Resource.
Is there a way to call the Authorization security provider ourselves, for each link on our JSPs? This call would be outside of the initial security check for the main JSP.

It's not going to be easy without DOM. Parsing HTML is a real pain, since there's all kinds of optional tags and quotation marks (pre-XHTML, that is). That makes any kind of ad-hoc parsing using regular expressions difficult, and less accurate than pulling the entire file into a DOM representation.
Why don't you want to use DOM? Are you just making up silly requirements?
EDIT:
I guess you could use an event-based HTML parser (HTML::Parser in Perl works this way. Is there a Java equivalent?) Set up an event for IMG and A start tags, and extract the href/src attributes there. Finding out if they are valid or not will require either:
1) Simply validate that the URL is well-formed by creating a URL object from it. This won't tell you if the link is active or not
2) Validate the URL by connecting to it with an URLConnection. However, the URL will be marked invalid if the server is down or the URL is otherwise unavailable.

Checking for errors in application item computation (at page level)

I have a conditional computation used to set the value of an application-level item.
In the condition, I need to check to see if the action (button-press to initiate DML processing) generated an error (eg cannot delete row because of child records). I don't need to catch/handle any specific errors, I just need to know if an error occurred.
What do I check for? I've seen references on the forum to hidden page items Pxx_msg and Pxx_err, but I've played around with them, and apparently don't know how they're set.
Another thought I had is to create a before-computation process that checks to see if there is some sort of error/exception, but I'm not having luck w/ this either.
Ideas?
Thanks,
C

Max -- I appreciate you helping me to clarify this issue. I need to track which database tables have had data changes committed to them in the course of the app running. My thought is to track this in an application item (a list of changed tables), and check/set the item as needed when delete/create/apply changes buttons are pressed. But if a DML statement fails, I don't want to add the table to the list of modified tables.
When I was setting the app item in a computation, it appeared that (like you said) I was trying to check for errors before the process had executed. (I'm also not sure I was checking for errors in the correct manner.) Regardless, the result was that the table got added to the list even when the delete operation failed because of child records.
What I'm doing now appears to work (and sorry, I can't actually access the app this morning, the server is down, so I may not be able to communicate this as clearly as I'd like). If I recall, yes, I'm setting the item in a post comp/validation process. I'm still not doing any error checking, but it appears that if there is an error, the process isn't executing: the item is definitely not getting set.
Can you clarify what you mean when you say that "all of this will execute before the processes". Do you mean that comps and page processes will execute before DML is executed on the database?
Thanks,
Carol

In Internet Explorer, in the internet options, you can change the temporary internet files to check for newer versions of stored pages. Can this be done in Firefox? And How?

I just want to know how I can change the settings to check for newer versions of stored pages in Firefox.

There is a hidden preference that controls when Firefox checks for a newer version. # 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
# Locate the preference '''browser.cache.check_doc_frequency''', double-click on it to change its value
For details on the possible values of his preference see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.cache.check_doc_frequency

Function modules to display hidden characteristic values of sales ord. item

Hi ALL,
My requirement is to display the hidden characteristic values of sales orders item.
Can anyone let me know the Function modules to be used.
Thanks & Regards
Deepthi

Hi Deepti
Use the Function Module 'VC_I_GET_CONFIGURATION' to get all the characterstics & their values for a sales order line item.
You just need to supply the configuration field(VBAP-CUOBJ) to the FM.

Check for null and empty - Arraylist

Hello all,
Can anyone tell me the best procedure to check for null and empty for an arraylist in a jsp using JSTL. I'm trying something like this;
<c:if test="${!empty sampleList}">
</c:if>
Help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Greeshma...

A null check might not be you best option. If your requirement is you must have both the date and time component supplied in order to populate EventDate, then I would use a Script Functoid that takes data and time as parameters.
In the C# method, first check if either is an empty string, if so return an empty string.
If not, TryParse the data, if successful, return a valid data string for EventDate. If not, error or return empty string, whichever satsifies the requirement.

I have IMac OSX 10.9.4, 4GB,Processor 3.06 with Intell2Duo. I would like to check for Malware. I run a TechTool Pro 6 every month and that comes up great.
When check how much memory I am using, with only Safari open I am using 3.9 and more of her 4.0 memory. She is very. very slow in processing. I had 4000
trash to clean out and it took her over an hour to expel. Also for some reason Safari will not allow me to click on a link, in my G-mail, and let it go to the page.
It has a sign saying a pop-up blocker is on and will not let me do it. I must open the stamp to look at my e-mails and if I have redirected link now I can do it.
I have not changed my preferences so where is this pop-up blocker?
I have looked at preferences on Safari and Google, which I do not understand Google, and do not see where this blocker could be.
Malware is something I want to make sure is not on my computer. Tech Tool Pro 6 is all I know of and it does not detect Malware.
Help.

Checking for PDF 1.7 compatibility in Preflight (Acrobat 9 Pro)

Hi,
I've noticed that in the given Preflight profiles in Acrobat 9 there is no compatibility check for PDF 1.7, only 1.6. is there a profile i can load? or a set of checks i can make a profile in order to determine 1.7 compatibility?
Thanks,
Yair Agmon.

Hi,
Knowing a PDF file's version premits deduction of what version "compatibility" is present.
Version 1.7 (Acrobat 8.x) lacks compatibility for Acrobat 9.x specific features.
Version 1.6 (Acrobat 7.x) lacks compatibility for Acrobat 8.x specific features.
And so forth.
Certainly, not an elegantly simple approach; but, nevertheless it is functional.
Using Acrobat Professional/Extended 9.x -
Open the Preflight dialog.
Advanced > Preflight
From the Options drop-down menu, Select "New Preflight Profile".
The Prefight: Edit Profile dialog opens.
A default profile name is provided (New Profile <number>).
Initially, Click the Save button to save the profile. You can rename it later.
Note that "New Profile" is placed in "Custom
Now, locate your "New Profile" in the column at the left of the dialog and select
"Custom checks".
The available custom checks list loads in the pane to the right.
Above and to the right is a "Find" field.
Enter the string "version".
A filtered list appears.
A custom check is available for "versions newer than":
1.2 | 1.3 | 1.4 | 1.5 | 1.6 | 1.7
and there is a custom check for "version older than 1.3".
Add the desired custom check to the profile. Save.
Configure the check for Error | Warning | Info
Info is "Notification" in the report that can be provided.
Once you have configured "New Profile" it can be used by a Batch Sequence to check multiple files.
When a Preflight is selected for use by a Batch Sequence you can configure for a "on success" and/or "on error" report.
Be well...

How can i check for posted but not yet commited changes in a form

Dears
I make changes programmatically in a form then i post it using (Post built in).
If the user exits the form, i make check for any changes in the form to commit it using the system variable :system.form_status
Unfortunately the value of this system variable is 'Query' not 'Changed' because of using the post built in.
Is ther another system variable ( or any another way ) that check for posted but not yet commited changes in the form ?
Thanks a lot
Mostafa Abolaynain

I had faced similar situation. Using of package variable which identifies, what is the user's latest action.
This is just a workaround.
Capture what the user has performed into a variable say, PKG_VAR.ACTION,
This will be assigned values like List L, and Create C, Update U and Saved S.
If commit is executed,assing the status S to the variable.
So while closing,
IF :system.form_status = 'CHANGED' or PKG_VAR.ACTION in ('C','U') THEN
-- validate the data, n perform commit.
else
-- just close the form.
end if;
