Clickable URL in a MDM iView

Hi
Are there any possibilities to make a clickable URL in a MDM iview. I have a field in my repository with an URL and would like to make it clickable in the portal. This is possible i the SRM_MDM user intreface, but how is it done with standard MDM iViews.
Regards
John-Kjell

Hi John-Kjell,
This can be achieved by using HTML Text field. Simply add a Lookup field that is referrencing this table and you will see the URL as Clickable.
Please note that having too much HTML Text fields ni the repository can have a downside in performance.
Hope this helps,
Idan

MDM iView resultset problem and question about eventing

Hi experts,
I created a MDM iView resultset for my main table as search table (comparison is not supported). When I click on preview I get an empty table ("Found <Tablename>: 0 of 10", table contains 10 entries at the moment). I tried the same with a subtable and everything works fine (all entries have been in the preview table). Any ideas why I don't get a result?
My 2nd question: can I choose the parameter name in eventing (EPCF) on my own? So if I have Vendor_Id as field can I use vendorid as parameter name? Do I have to define anything in the listener iView (e.g. in detail iView for an event from resultset iView)? Maybe you have a useful tutorial link (please not SAP help section)?
Thanks for your answers.
Regards, bd

It is possible to retrieve the number of rows from a resultset --
Statement stmt= con.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE,
 ResultSet.CONCUR_READONLY);
ResultSet rs= stmt.executeQuery("<your select query here>");
int totalRows;
if (rs.last()) // can it move to the last row?
 totalRows= rs.getRow(); // get its row number
else
 totalRows= 0; // no rows in the resultset
rs.first() // set the cursor back to the startNote that the resultset has to be scrollable (TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE).
kind regards,

MDM iviews in Portal throws error in key Mapping

Hi,
I have EP7 with SP15 and MDM 6.0, recently upgraded. Before upgrade we have an application which uses the MDM iviews and maps the fields of one table to other and displays in some other iview.
The application was working fine before upgrade of MDM. But after upgrade, the mapping seems not working.
My scenario is as : Using MDM Search iview, I search records from MDM repository, Main Table. This result is displayed in MDM Result iview. From this result iview, I select a record. From this selected record, a field is mapped to the other table. The mapped record, then, is displayed in MDM Details Iview.
After MDM upgrade, whenever we select a record from the result of table 1,the mapped iview throws erros :
Error occurred: Error performing search. com.sap.mdm.internal.protocol.manual.ServerException: Illegal value for parameter, com.sap.mdm.internal.protocol.manual.ServerException: Illegal value for parameter (see log for details)
when serached log : it says error in <table 1>-Key mapping <table1> is first table.
We have used EPCF eventing for MDM iviews.
has anyone out there faced same issue ?
Please let me know your views.
Regards,
Abhijeet

Hi Abhijeet ,
check the below wiki
findout anything is needed related to keymappings
"if Keymapping is selected, your Result Set iView only displays fields that are related to key mapping.This step depends on the search table selected and the schema of the repository that you are connected to"
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/ep/set%2biviews
check the search table and schema of repository properties you connected

How to catch URL parameter from Portal URL in Web Dynpro iView

Hi All,
I have a web dynpro application running as a portal iView successfully. Now the client wants to make it internationalized with 7 languages. Currently they access the portal - and via role assignment they get to the portal tab with the wd iView. Now they want to send a parameter for the language key with the portal URL. So when they are typing in http://myportal.mydomain.com now they want to type in http://myportal.mydomain.com?sap-locale=de or so. My question is how can I catch this parameter in the WD application when it is running inside a portal iView? Is it at all possible?
I have written a very small application which is trying to catch a URL parameter named PARAM. The code I have written is the default one as below:
String paramValue = WDWebContextAdapter.getWebContextAdapter().getRequestParameter("PARAM");
When I run the application standalone and add the PARAM=something in last of the URL I can catch it. But when I create an iView and while previewing it I add the same PARAM value it is coming as null all the time. Same when I add this iView to a role and show it via role assignment in protal. Please help to let me know how to achieve this. I think if I can read the parameter value from Portal URL in the WD iView - then I can set it as the default locale of the application and then show language specific file to achieve internationalization.
Your urgent help will be highly appreciated.
Warm Regards,
Shubho

Hi Shubhadip
Even if you get the parameters, how do you internationalize your application? Are you not following the standard way as described in the following link. In this case you never need to capture any such parameter. This is done by the WD runtime automatically .
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/f4/d95664da179b4db731e21c2e470b72/frameset.htm">Internationalization of WD projects</a>
You can retrieve application parameters specified at the creation of iview by "adding parameters(with the same name as in iview application parameters) to the default plug of the Component Interface View of the WD application". "onDefaultPlug" method of the interface view controller you get these values as parameters, which you can save in the context node of component controller for later use.This is guaranteed to work.
But again this is not what you want exactly. You want the user to specify the value at runtime. If you have just 7 languages, you can create 7 set of iviews with different application parameter value indicating language key, and assign to 7 different set of roles, each representing one set of users with common language.
I hope you find a solution.

MDM iView Wizard: Search Table doesnt populate any value.

Hello all,
I am trying to create MDM Resultset IView using MDM IView wizard in portal.
I do not get any value in the dropdown of Search Table.
I have created an MDM system and assigned a repository to it.
The wizard doesnt allow me to go ahead without selecting search table parameter from the dropdown.
Techincal details:
MDM: 5.5
EP:- 2004 SP 16.
Please give me your valuable inputs.
Ashutosh

Hi Ashutosh,
After creating an MDM system and assigning a repository, you need to right-click on the system, and then choose System Aliases. Define an "alias" and save it.
Now go to User Administration -> Identity Management.
Select the User/Role/Group you want to assign to the System.
Click the User Mapping for System Access tab, and click Modify.
Select the system alias from the drop-down box, and map it to an MDM user. Note that in NW 7 (NW04s), the user must have a password, so you may need to configure this first in the MDM Console.
Save the mapping, return to the System Administration -> System Configuration screen.
Locate your system, right-click it, and select Connection Tests. Test the connection. If it succeeds, you are now ready to create MDM iViews using this system.
This information can also be found <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mdmgds55/helpdata/EN/45/c8cd92dc7f4ebbe10000000a11466f/frameset.htm">here</a> in the SAP Help Portal.

MDM iview not available

Hi,
I am just looking all the iview and found that MDM iview are missing. These are in MDM iview folder
1) MDiViewSearch
2) MDiViewProductSearch
3) MDMiVewProductResult
4) MDMiViewSupplierResult
Please suggest how to restore this iview...
Regards,
Sanjeev mourya

Hi Sanjeev,
If you have the MDM connectors deployed on your webAS you can create fresh iViews of the MDM type mentioned in your list.
Its a wizard based approach where you configure the iView from the standard MDM iView templates.
Here is the link from the service marketplace.

How to add Images and PDFs in MDM iView

Hello!
We use SAP Portal as interfase to access SAP MDM repository tables.We use MDM Record Set and MDM Item Detail iViews to display and operate with main table content.
There is a field in the qualified table, which is the lookup to the Images table. And the other field is the lookup to the PDFs table. Both fields are qualifiers.
In the main table there is a field, which is the lookup to the qualified table. When we try to add values to this field using Item Detail iView, we get a window, where we can fill all values of the qualified table, except Image field and PDF field - they are disabled. So, can we add Images and PDFs to the table using Item Datail iView? Or what is the other way to add them?
Thanks,
Vika

Standard MDM iView for Creation of Record

Hi All,
We have requirement to create a record in MDM through Portal.
Are there any standard iViews available in Portal content of MDM, which can create or update a record in MDM repository?
In the Portal content we have found following two SCA
BPMDMAPPLI04_0.SCA
BPMDMTECHN04_0.SCA
We have deployed them on the portal server, we are able to see search and itemdetail iViews for standard repository.
But we are not able to see iViews for creation of record.
In one of the document it has been given that SP 04 extended (imporved) functionality offers Data Entry and Maintenance (CURD operations) can also be performed.
But availability of the iViews not mentioned anywhere.
Anyone has already implemented such kind of functionality or scenario?
Thanks and regards,
Shruti.

Hi Mandar,
I have followed the same PDF also.
But I am not able to find out the SCA's which are mentioned in the above document for GP and CAF.
I tried searching on service market place also.
In portal Contenet of SP 04 i have found only two SCA's
BPMDMAPPLI04_0.SCA
BPMDMTECHN04_0.SCA
I am not able to find following SCA files.
H2G_GuidedProcedures.sda
H2G_SourceCode.zip
Can tell me how do i get those SCA's?
Thanks in Advance
Shruti.

Update on question for parameters in URL opening a BSP iview

Hi again gurus.
I wanted to do an update on this thread: How do you create a URL with parameters for a BSP iview? but choose to do the update as this new question instead.
Well, in order to open a BSP iview from an external page shown in an Application Integrator iview in our portal AND FILL IN A FIELD, a link of this type is used on the external page:
http://<server:port>/sap/bc/bsp/sap/z_purchase_req/process.htm?System=ABG_R3_ARD&mnr%3D9780198603641
If you read the other thread you will see that I couldn't use a link of the following type since it opened up something like the stuff found under "System Administration > Support > SAP Application" and there asked for BSP application and start page!
http://<server:port>/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.appintegrator.sap.bwc.BSP?System=ABG_R3_ARD&SAP_TCode=Z_PURCHASE_REQ&STARTPAGE=process.htm
But the first link works so far as it opens up the correct transaction BUT the parameter won't get into the field. Does anyone know how to "format" the parameter correctly? When you open an iview of Transactional type you can use a URL like this (and it works also with writing parameter into a field):
http://<server:port>/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.appintegrator.sap.bwc.Transaction?System=ABG_R3_ARD&SAP_TCode=ZARTS2&SAP_Dynp_Params=S_MATNR-LOW%3D9789146212720
It's the part ...&SAP_Dynp_Params=... that is of interest here. Should it also be used when working with URLs opening BSP iviews or not? Or should something similar be used instead? The name of the field "mnr" is correct in the BSP URL, at least I think so, I found it in the Web Application Builder under tab "Page Attributes". I have tried both "=" and "%3D" in the URL but neither works.
Any suggestions about the parameter format for this link or another completely different but working URL format would be extremely appreciated!
Best regards
Benny Lange

the Appintegrator Documentation says you can use something like <User.[AttributeName]>, so <User.email> and <User.company> (not sure about capital letters) should work.
Hope that helps.
PD

Active a URL in web dynpro iview with out using LinkToURL button?

Hello everybody;
Is it possible to directly activate a URL in iview without using any buttons (e.g. LinkToURL)?
I've develloped a Web Dynpro project. I have placed my code in the INIT function in iview, and I want the URL to activate automatically when INIT is opened. At the moment I have used the LinkToURL function to activate the URL, but I want to avoid this step.
In EP iview it is possible to do this using Javascript, but Javascript is not allowed in Web Dynpro.
Any ideas and suggestions are very welcome.
