Correct values for DefaultExportPath option in Disco pref.txt file

Hi All,
I am trying to edit the "DefaultExportPath" parameter in Disco pref.txt file file. We are using Discoverer Plus and Viewer on CP4 and are using JVM1.5 or higher.
I referred to Metalink Doc Id: 365245.1 and Oracle Configuration Guide doc B13918_03.
I am interested in making the local system desktop as the default export location for all the users with no exceptions.
Tried to edit the parameter values to
DefaultExportPath = "C:\Documents and Settings\<Windows user name>\Desktop"
but it didn't work.
Also came across Metalink Doc Id: 438598.1 which talks about changing individual systems "deployment.properties" file which I don’t want to get into. It’s too much of over head.
I am looking for some pointer so that we can edit the pref.txt file to change the default location to the desktop universally across all the users.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi Rod,
Thx for the update.
Just one more dumb questions. Is there an automated way of changing these properties. Physically changing them would be vey tough since quiet a few of our users work remotely.
Thanks.

Stock Ledger Report in Day Wise not giving correct values for Opening Stock

Dear Experts,
I m working on Sock ledger report to give the day wise data.
since yesterdays closing Stock will become opening stock of today,
To get Opening Stock,
I have restricted the stock key figure with 2 variables on calday
                              (DATE FROM var with <=(Lessthan or equal to) and offset -1
                               DATE TO      var with <=(Lessthan or equal to) and offset -1)
To get Closing Stock,
I have restricted the Stock key figure with 2 variables on calday
                              (DATE FROM var with <=(Lessthan or equal to)
                               DATE TO      var with <=(Lessthan or equal to) )
But in the output Opening stock values are not coming correctly and for given range of dates,
for last date, opening stock is showing as Zero.
Could you please tell me how can I achieve the correct values for opening stock.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Arjun,
Seems like you are making it more complicated. What is your selection screen criteria?
Ideally you should only use the offset.
You will have say Calday in rows and stock in Column
____________Opening Stock_____________Closing Stock
01/06/2009___(Closing stock of 31/05/2009)_(Stock of 01/06/2009)
02/06/2009___(Closing stock of 01/06/2009)_(Stock of 02/06/2009)
03/06/2009___(Closing stock of 02/06/2009)_(Stock of 03/06/2009)
So, from above scenario, create one RKFs and include Calday in it. Create a replacement path variable on calday and apply the offset as -1.
So, your Opening Stock will be calculated by closign stock of previous day.

How to set the default values for print options

Hi all,
We can set the default value for print options, just like Logical destination、numbers of messages、print immediately and so on, so where we should to maintain these default?

Hi Sandy,
This can be done by an abaper by making changes in the driver program. The Driver program feeds all the data which u have mentioned for printing.
if the driver program is standard. copy to an z type and make modification on printer settings on the driver program code.
this will surely solve the issue.

Set of default values for Select-Options

Hi Gurus,
I have a requirement where I need to set default values for select options
ex: SELECT-OPTIONS: S_MTART FOR MARA-MTART
default values must be ERSA - HIBE- FHMI - DIEN - GEST
Please tell me how to do it.
Effective replies will be rewarded with full points
Karthik

Hi,
For each SELECT-OPTION, you can only specify one DEFAULT.
You must specify the default value g in its internal format, e.g. "SELECT-OPTIONS DATE FOR SY-DATUM DEFAULT '19931224'", not "... DEFAULT '24.12.1993'".
The default value g should normally be a literal because, at runtime when you use SUBMIT, it is transferred to the selection options table sel so early that no value can be assigned to the field g. System fields like SY-DATUM are an exception here because the system usually assigns values to them as soon as the report processing starts.
When you use user-defined selection screens in your programs that you do not call using SUBMIT, the DEFAULT value is transfered when the selection screen is first called. In this case, therefore, you can use other fields g.

Retrieve correct value for SelectOneChoice

Does anyone know how to retrieve the correct value in a SelectOneChoice for an inline table? What should I use to get the value of a selectOneChoice column? for example "#{row.CodeId}" does not return the correct value, since the column is not in the parent table, so I use the <af:selectOneChoice value="#{detailRow.CodeId}" ... it doesn't work. It retrieve the correct value in a text format and lose the dropdown list style
This is what I've used to do the binding:
<af:selectOneChoice value="#{detailRow.CodeId}"
label="Code ID"
id="selectOneChoice1"
autoSubmit="true"
valuePassThru="true">
<af:forEach var="li"
items="#{bindings.codeLookupVO1.rangeSet}">
<af:selectItem value="#{li.CodeId}"
label="#{li.CodeText}"/>
</af:forEach>
</af:selectOneChoice>
Plus I have done the table binding for the codeLookupVO and created an iterator for it too.
Does anyone know what should I use to get the correct value for the row in the detailStamp ?
I use JDEV 10.1.3.3 & ADF & BC
Your help is greatly appreciated... There are many listing in regards to SelectOneChoice for single table, but I have not seen anything related to an inline table selectOneChoice... Can one of you expert help and guide me to the correct path!
Thanks
Sara

usually web service call process one row or one message, hence the default value is set to less than a min, since its processing is not expected to take more than that
the affect of increaing the value to a higher number is the Engine will wait for Max that amount of time for the response to come back in a ideal situation it may not take that long, but if there is any problem on the server side like application crash or for some reason the response was not sent back to the engine, then engine will wait for that much amount of time and then timeout. It will hang
you might have seen this with Designer if you configure Adapter Datastore and if Adapter process crashes, the Desginer hangs, since the timeout value is set to 3 hrs, so you may have to think of trouble shooting such situation
what is the DS version, I think this value is exposed in UI, available at Design time

Best Practice regarding using and implementing the pref.txt file

Hi All,
I would like to start a post regarding what is Best Practice in using and implementing the pref.txt file. We have reached a stage where we are about to go live with Discoverer Viewer, and I am interested to know what others have encountered or done to with their pref.txt file and viewer look and feel..
Have any of you been able to add additional lines into the file, please share ;-)
Look forward to your replies.
Lance

Hi Lance
Wow, what a question and the simple answer is - it depends. It depends on whether you want to do the query predictor, whether you want to increase the timeouts for users and lists of values, whether you want to have the Plus available items and Selected items panes displayed by default, and so on.
Typically, most organizations go with the defaults with the exception that you might want to consider turning off the query predictor. That predictor is usually a pain in the neck and most companies turn it off, thus increasing query performance.
Do you have a copy of my Discoverer 10g Handbook? If so, take a look at pages 785 to 799 where I discuss in detail all of the preferences and their impact.
I hope this helps
Best wishes

3i PREF.txt file

The IP address of the machine that 3i is installed is suppose to be placed in the PREF.txt file. Now does it matter if the machine has two IP adresses (two network cards)? I guess what I am trying to as is does is matter which address you use in the PREF.txt file? Thanks!

I have never seen this with a disco server. Why don't you try it both ways. Ounce with a single IP address and ounce with both. I would be interested to hear your results.

Default Values for Select-options In Webdynpro-ABAP

Hi Freinds,
Kindly,Help me in setting the Default values for the Select-options in Webdynpro ABAP.
Here the Node and the Attributes are Created Dynamically, and then Displayed Select-options Component View.
Regards,
Xavier.P

Xavier Reddy Penta sent me this question via email and I answered it directly yesterday. Here is the solution that I provided to him, so that it is stored with the original question:
I believe your problem is that you are not setting the value into the range correctly. You are setting it directly into the field symbol of the range like such:
<FS> = L_STRING2.
But ranges are deep objects. They have four fields: Sign, Option, High, and Low. This is from the online help:
1.     sign of type c and length 1. The content of sign determines for every row whether the result of the condition formulated in the column is included or excluded in the entire resulting set for all rows. Evaluable values are "I" for include and "E" for exclude.
2.     option of type c and length 2. option contains the selection option for the condition of the row in form of logical operators. Analyzable operators are "EQ", "NE", "GE", "GT", "LE", "LT", "CP" and "NP" if column high is initial, and "BT", "NB" if column high is not initial. With the options "CP" and "NP", the data type of the columns low and high must be of the data type c, and special rules apply for entries on the selection screen.
3.     low of the data type defined after FOR. This column is designated for the comparison value or the lower interval limitation.
4.     high of the data type defined after FOR. This column is designated for the upper interval limitation.
So when you are moving the value into the field symbol you are setting it into the sign column.
Here is an example of how you can access the components of the range:
* create a range table that consists of this new data element
    lt_range_table =
      wd_this->lv_sel_handler->create_range_table(
           i_typename = l_typename ).
    IF l_fieldname = 'CARRID'.
      FIELD-SYMBOLS: <tab>         TYPE INDEX TABLE,
                         <struct>      TYPE ANY,
                         <wa>          TYPE ANY,
                         <option>      TYPE char2,
                         <sign>        TYPE char1,
                         <high>        TYPE ANY,
                         <low>         TYPE ANY,
                         <wa_values>   TYPE ANY.
      ASSIGN lt_range_table->* TO <tab>.
      APPEND INITIAL LINE TO <tab> ASSIGNING <wa>.
      ASSIGN COMPONENT 'OPTION' OF STRUCTURE <wa> TO <option>.
      ASSIGN COMPONENT 'HIGH' OF STRUCTURE <wa> TO <high>.
      ASSIGN COMPONENT 'LOW' OF STRUCTURE <wa> TO <low>.
      ASSIGN COMPONENT 'SIGN' OF STRUCTURE <wa> TO <sign>.
      <sign> = 'I'.
      <option> = 'EQ'.
      <low> = 'AA'.
    ENDIF.

Problem to get Correct Value for Message Id in XI (Inbound channel)

Hi Experts
I have XI scenario i.e. SOAP to RFC.
I am calling RFC and getting Response which contais Messageid Field(Raw Data).
But while getting Response in Inbound Channel ,I ma getting Junk Value For Message Id.
In RFC Data element for Message id is SXMSMGUID.(data tpe Raw No Of character 16 and Output Length 32)
I am accessing some RFC functions from XI which return parameters in the RAW format.[RAW: Uninterpreted byte string.]
For example: If I execute a RFC from the abap system (using transaction se37), one of the results is "5ECD6F4D6C6E3242921025FE74AC5153"
When I call the RFC from XI, response for same parameters is "Xs1vTWxuMkKSECX+dKxRUw==".
Is there any way to get RAW data in correct Format?
when i import RFc in XI it's data type becomes xsd:base64Binary.
I created one customized data element having data type RAW (32 length) and even Character(32-50 length)
In this case RFC gives correct value but when Sceanaro runs in XI,it get Wrong data in XI Inbound channel.
Also disturbed value and place of other Fields.
Thanks in advance .

Hi
Check this forum post.. same prob as yours
Re: Problem in RFC Lookup UDF in getting MessageID

Default value for select options.

Hi folks
I have to default four values in select-options.
eg.,
S_lfart for likp-lfart, default zse, zin, znd, zps.
Thanks in Advance,
Rao

Hi,
Go through the following syntax:
SELECT-OPTIONS <sel> FOR <f>
               [DEFAULT <g> [to <h>] [OPTION <op>] SIGN <s>]
               [MEMORY ID <pid>]
               [LOWER CASE]
               [OBLIGATORY]
               [NO-DISPLAY]
               [MODIF ID <key>]
               [NO-EXTENSION]
               [NO INTERVALS]
               [NO DATABASE SELECTION].
Declares a selection table <sel> for the field <f>. For <sel>, places input fields on the corresponding selection screen. The additions allow you to set a default value, accept input in lowercase, define a required field, suppress or modify the display on the selection screen, restrict the selection table to a line or a selection to a single field, or prevent input from being passed to a logical database

Default cell values for column not properly saved in uir file in labwindows 2009 (9.1.0 427)?

I've run into a strange problem with the table control. Basically, even though I set default cell values for a particular column as numeric, when I try to add items to the list it tries to add them as strings, and returns an error message that it is expecting *char instead of int. Furthermore, when I open the uir file that contains the table in question in 2010, it appears as if the default cell values for that column are still set as strings, even though in 2009 when I open the uir file it shows as numbers. I tried converting the uir to C code, and sure enough the C code indicated that the column still is a string type.
I've gone ahead and made a small project to show the issue. If you open this project in labwindows 2009 and click on the table in the table_bug.uir, and edit default cell values for column 1, you will see that the cell settings have type as numeric and data type as int. When you run the project, however, it will fail with an error message saying that it is looking for a *char. When this same project is loaded into labwindows 2010, clicking on the table in table_bug.uir and edit default cell values (column 1) shows the type as string. When I change this to numeric (and change numeric attribute to int), this runs fine in 2010. I tried simply changing the uir in 2010, and then using it in 2009, but 2009 complains that the uir is from a newer version (understandable). If there is any workaround that would let me continue to use 2009 for the time that would be great.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Alex Corwin

I opened the UIR in 2009 (but I have 2009 SP1) and it still showed that the default value for the first column was a string. I didn't have any problems changing it to a numeric int, and then building and running the project without error.
Here are a few things you can try:
1) Change the default value to a string. OK out of the dialog, re-enter the dialog, and change it back to Numeric int. Resave and see if the problem has gone away.
2) You said you get a ".UIR is from a newer version" error when opening the 2010 UIR in 2009. Does the UIR still open if you click okay? Often times this will work just fine. Assuming you don't have any problems with this, make a minor change to the UIR in 2009, such as moving the table to the left, and then back to the right and then re-save. See if your program works now.
