Controling Bursting Output File Name

Is there a RTF template parameter I can set that will set the file name? It generates cryptic names for us (usually xmlp some numbers followed by .pdf) for the attachments it emails.
Some people have said you can control it with a bursting control file but I have yet to figure out how to setup this file or where to load it as there is no spot for it in the web UI.

There is nothing in the bursting control query to control the output file name when bursting as an email attachment. Were running BIP Enterprise 10.1.3.3.1 on an 10g Application Server backed up by SSO authentication. I have looked through the RTF template documentation and I ahve yet to find a tag to specify. Also, no where in the interface is there any option to load a Bursting Control File or edit the properties contained within whatever is used by default.

Dynamic report output file name

Hi,
I am generating a report using web interface by sending http string with required parameters.
Each time I run this report I am appending current date & time (mmddyyhhmm) string to the output file name.
Successfully I am able to get the outputs.
For example:
If report runs at 9:30am then MyReportOutput_0205040930.html
If report runs at 12:45pm then MyReportOutput_0205041245.html
But, I am facing the problem when I schedule the report. I want to append the report run date & time to the output file for scheduled runs.
Is it possible?
Please advise.
Thank you,
Prasad

hi,
for that you will have to use reports distribution. in the distribution XML file you can specify data fields from the report for various attributes, including the output file name.
you will have to create a column in your datamodel that creates this timestamp and then add it to your report name.
see the distribution/bursting example here on OTN for further information. click onthe getting started link on the reports homepage and then navigate to the INDEX. there you will find an overview of all the examples available.
thanks,

Cannot Print - Output File Name Requsted - Help

I'm having problems printing. I am using Reader 8 and everytime i try to print, a print to file box pops up, and requests and output file name and i don't know what that is. Can anyone please tell me what this means and how i can resolve this issue. I can print everything else and there is no problem with my printer. I think the problem is w/ Reader. Thanks.

Delete ALL instances of your printer in the Printes & Faxes control panel. If your printer isn't using the latest drivers from the manufacturer Website, download/install them, then reconnect to your printer to add it back to your system. Once the printer with the latest drivers is reinstalled, see if Reader doesn't print correctly now.
Let me know how it goes!

Can we control the PDF file name that is generated by BI Publisher based on the content in the input PDF

can we control the PDF file name that is generated by BI Publisher based on the content in the input PDF?

No, there isn't. The way you're using the file is not recommended. You
should use a review tracker to avoid getting in the way of one another.

How to get the Output File Name as One of the Field Value From Payload

Hi All,
I want to get the Output file name as one of the Field value from payload.
Example:
Source XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns0:MT_TEST xmlns:ns0="http://sample.com">
- <Header>
<NAME>Bopanna</NAME>
</Header>
</ns0:MT_TEST>
I want to get the Output file name as " Bopanna.xml"
Please suggest me on this.
Regards
Bopanna

Hi,
There are couple of links already available for this. Just for info see the below details,
The Output file name could be used from the field value of payload. For this you need to use the UDF DynamicFile name with below code,
// Description: Function to create dynamic Filename
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File" , "FileName");
conf.put(key,a);
return "";
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File" , "FileName");
conf.put(key,a);
return "";
With this udf map it with the MessageType as
(File Name field from Payload) > DynamicFileConfiguration>MTReceiver
Thanks

How can i configure output file name to the desired format generated in target directory in communication channel configuration in conf scenario.
ex: i want to generate the file in the below format..
YYYYMMDD_<Receiver>.TXT
Thanks and Regards
Venkatesh

Hi,
This is the UDF u have to write in Mapping,
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key =
DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String ourSourceFileName = conf.get(key);
return ourSourceFileName;
Using this u will get the File name into target side,In this UDF add the Time stamp.

Setting output file name in export transaction data package

Hi all,
I am running an "export transaction data" package in the data manager. I wanted to set the output file name so that it will be a constant value. I wrote the following in the package editor:
INFO(%FILE%,\ROOT\WEBFOLDERS\COLMOBIL\VEHICLES1\DATAMANGER\DATAFILES\vehicles_to_pca2.txt)
TASK(/CPMB/TD_FILE_TARGET,FULLFILENAME,%FILE%)
The system run the package and reported success but the file was not created. When i did the same with an existing file name, it was not updated.
When I run the same package with the following PROMPT command instead of the INFO command:
PROMPT(OUTFILE,,"Please enter an output file",Data files (*.txt)|*.txt|All files(*.*)|*.*)
The system works fine.
Any ideas?
TIA

I am sad to report that apparently Adobe does not do a very good job with the PDF printer. I have just spent over an hour with support to get the answer we can not help you. I guess I will have to spend $50 for NovaPDF to handle my problem. It's a shame when a superior overall product like Acrobat is not able to keep up with the knockoffs on the small things.

Require output file name same as input file without extension

I am doing a POC where I require that my output file name should be same as input file name. The input is a XML and output is Flatfile. If I use %SourceFileName%,
i am getting the output with extension. How can I remove the extension? Do I need to write a custom pipeline component?

I don't think Orchestration or custom Pipeline can help you on this as you are setting
%SourceFileName% Macros at your send Handler which comes after Pipeline Processing .
As you are converting xml file to Flat file I would suggest to use Macros as
%SourceFileName%.txt
%SourceFileName% Macro gives the file name along with extention. This won't work!

When I open up an e-mail attachment a box pops up PRINT TO FILE below that line OUTPUT FILE NAME with an empty line for the file name vs. simply going to my default printer?

when I open up an e-mail attachment a box pops up PRINT TO FILE below that line OUTPUT FILE NAME with an empty line for the file name vs. simply going to my default printer?

Make sure that '''''Print to File''''' isn't selected in the native print dialog box ''(see screenshot below)'' middle-right, and make sure your Printer is selected at the top of that dialog box.
''I'm a little confused why an email attachment would need to go directly to the printer, but that's what you asked about.''

How Can I get Concurrent program parameters in the bursting output file????

I have rtf template. I am passing parameter PC_REPORT_TYPE,pd_week_ending_date in my concurrent program. In rtf header I am passing this parameters as <?PC_REPORT_TYPE?> and <?param@begin:pd_week_ending_date?><?xdofx:to_char(to_date(replace(substr($pd_week_ending_date,1,10),’/’,’-‘),’YYYY-MM-DD’),’MM/DD/YY’)?> .
I am getting the values in my report which is generated from this concurrent program. But I am not getting these values in my bursting output file which is generated from that previous concurrent program.
Thanks in advance....

The same exact video played back perfecly fine 2 weeks ago. The same project too, with no changes at all. I have a Nvida card too and have made no changes to that either. Not sure everything worked a couple weeks ago. Then every once in a while I started having issues, but I could just close and reopen the project and it would be OK. Now, I can't get any vieo at all. If I double click in the monitor box the frame I am on pops up but nothing plays, I just get one frame while audio plays with no issue.

How to programmatically disable prompts for output file names in Acrobat X

My code to programmatically disable output file names (below) is not working on a Windows 7 64-bit machine using Acrobat Distiller X. It works perfectly on a Windows XP machine with Acrobat Distiller 8.
The latest API Reference I was able to find is dated June 2008. My logic follows this convention.
I have confirmed that the registry key is updated as specified below. I have also confirmed that I am able to write to the directory indicated.
Please provide any suggestions to resolve.
Thank You!

I remember seeing that the problem is thunking. A little more specifically, because it's a 32-bit driver but a 64-bit executable, there's a 32-bit system spooler process which will always show up as the EXE name.

Can I print to AdobePDF with a pre-determined output file name?

I have a list of PDF files that I need to reduce in size. I have tried many combinations of Adobe's "Save As Reduced PDF", "Save As Optimized PDF", as well as several compression programs. The best results I've found have been to print the PDF via AdobePDF, using the standard quality settings.
This leads me to my problem. It's simple to batch the print process to print multiple files to AdobePDF, however each one requires the user to specify the output file name. Is there a way to interface with the AdobePDF tool in a way that the output file name is already determined? I.e. passed into the program as an argument? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan
EDIT: Under the Adobe PDF Settings, the option for Adobe PDF OUtput Folder is set for Prompt for Adobe PDF filename. There is also an option to dump to Documents\*.pdf, which retains the original filename. Is there a way to specify a different directory, rather than Documents, while retaining the *.pdf argument? Again, thank you.

You would probably get better results printing from Acrobat. The HTMLLoader rasterizes the image first. You could possibly add a JavaScript function inside the PDF that prints and call that from your AIR app.
See http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/flex/quickstart/scripting_pdf.html for information on calling JS functions in a pdf file from AIR.

Use job parameter as output file name "alias" ?

I have a Hyperion 9.3 job with a # of cycles. Is there a way to tell Hyperion to use the job parameter/filter as part of the file name? For example, if there is a filter called "division" and for one of the cycles that is set to "sales", is there a syntax like "{division}" I can use in the output file name so that it picks up the filter?

Unfortunately, I have never seen any kind of syntax that would allow this in Hyperion. The only way I know to do it would be using the java sdk, but that is not something that can be done on the fly...

Joe,
I presume you are trying to build Oracle BDB and not bsd as you have mentioned.
Yes, the error message you are getting is for not having the CC compiler in your system or the path isn't set. Check in the /usr/vac/bin directory if you have one in your system. You might find both xlc and cc compiler there. Set this directory to your path so that 'configure' can see it.

XML Publisher - Specify Output file name

Hi All
I am using XML Publisher in one of our OAF pages to generate PDF reports based on some parameters. I am using the shared region which OAF has provided. On export, I see that the output file name is : template code + random number + _out.pdf. Is there anyway to specify custom output file name?? As this is little critical for me, any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Murari

Hi Avaneesh,
Thanks for your prompt response. I see that the logic for file name is in xml publisher utility class: DocumentHelper. I dont see any option to pass file name as a parameter to DocumentHelper. So I am not sure if extending OAF region controller : "DocumentViewerCO.java" would be of any help?? Please correct me if I am wrong. Did you ever try changing output file name from OAF page?
Many thanks,
Murari
