Create TO item using enhancemant MWMTO003

Hello,
I use enhacement MWMTO003 (Own stock placement strategy) to find an empty sorage bin. Now, I have problems when there are several TO items for one TR item. In the enhacement I select an empty storage bin (kzler = 'X') from lagp. When creating the second TO item, I select the same storage bin again. Because there was no update on lagp. I can remember, that there is a function module, that lists already created TO items but not recorded yet.
Can anyone tell me the name of this function module?
Thanks!!!
Rgds
Jörg

Problem solved. I use FM L_TO_CREATE_GET_INFO to get the locked storage bins.

Create Limit Items using Catalog

Hi Experts,
Can anyone advice how to create limit items using Catalogs.
I tried to change the catalog data in BADI BBP_CATALOG_TRANSFER, it results error "Interface data contains error".
Please let me know what are key fields to be changed in the BADI to create limit item.
Regards
Praveen

praveen,
we wanted to do this but found that it was not possible, i.e. you cannot put limit items into a catalog.
In our business the Procurement dept wanted to control the vendors that can be used for a product category in a limit order by Purch Org and even in some cases right down to Purch grp.
We have a Z table that allows Procurement to configure this.
ZFREEVEND table has fields for
Purch org - mandatory
Purch Grp - Can be blank in which case all Groups in the purch Org can use the record
Product Category - we use UNSPSC codes
Vendor Number - FMS/SRM supplier number
Product Category Description - For reference
Vendor Name - again for reference
Our Procurement Department can maintain this table using a Z transaction in the SRM GUI
If a shopper raises a Limit Order and enters values that correspond to a table entry the Shopping cart item is processed the same as a catalog item and the cart goes for approval, as per standard workflow.
If they enter a value that is not in the table they receive an error message and cannot complete the limit order screen unless they remove the supplier from the screen. Carts without a supplier for the limit item are treated as free text items, (sometimes called describe requirement), and the cart is sent to an operational purchaser for processing.
The check and error message is performed using the DOC_CHECK_BADI and although I am functional, not ABAP, I am told the code is quite trivial.
Hope this assists you

Create List Item using SharePoint 2010 Workflow

Hello everyone.
I found in youtube video using SP Employee Onboarding Web Part, idea is quite simple and powerful. But this web part available only in SP 2013, and I use 2010. So I wanted to develop my own version.
Questions is:
I have 2 lists Employee OnBoards (list contains data about new employee) and Employee OnBoards Tasks (list contains approval task). Where field Employee Name from Employee OnBoards list is lookup field in Employee OnBoards Tasks list.
I need emplement next:
When new Item created in Employee OnBoards list, it should copy Employee Name value to the Name field of the Employee OnBoards Tasks list.
I hope I explained understandable.
Thanks.

Hi Azamat,
This you can do by using SharePoint Designer workflow.
Create a sharepoint designer workflow and invoke that when new item will create in the list Employee
OnBoards.
then use Copy List item action to copy employee name to employee on board task list.
Below link will help you how to use copy list item action in a workflow.

Hope this will help you.

Creating page items from pl/sql procedure and using them on a page

I have a page containing 2 select lists (P21_DEPARTMENTS and P21_DATE). Originally I added them as items that were "select list with submits". The problem is that based on the clearance level of the currently logged on user I only wanted the P21_DEPARTMENTS to be a select list if the user was an administrator. If however the user is not an admin then I want the page to have a hidden form field called P21_DEPARTMENTS that stores the user's department and has a label item that has the department name.
There is also a report region that generates a table based on the department selected from the select list (if the user is an admin) or the value stored in the hidden form field if the user is not.
My problem is that I cannot have both those items on the same page and use the HTML built-in authentication to determine which item should be rendered because I need to use the same ID for both items so that the stored procedure in my report region doesn't break. HTML does not permit items to share the same ID.
I tried to circumvent the problem by creating a stored procedure that performs all of the item rendering in the procedure and uses "htp.p()" to output all of my HTML code. This solution would allow me to pass a parameter into the procedure informing me as to whether or not the user is an administrator. If the user is an administrator the procedure would use a conditional statement and render a select list. If not, the hidden form field and label option would be used instead.
I finally got the stored procedure working perfectly. Now I am encountering the most bizarre thing. Since the "select list with submit" was not working (I used the same code that gets generated when I created other items using htmlDB's GUI) I decided to use a JavaScript function instead that gets triggered by the onChange event. I send along the value that is currently selected in the select list and in the function I set:
location.href='http://www.myoraclesite.com/pls/htmldb/f?p=111:21:729740000000000000::NO::P21_DEPARTMENTS:1';
In theory this should work. The problem is that it doesn't. The page reloads and the P21_DEPARTMENTS select list is not pre-selected.
The only thing I can think of is that when htmlDB generates page items that you've created with it's own admin tool it assigns some internal guid or something as opposed to when someone tries to generate dynamic page items of their own from a pl/sql procedure it's like the application doesn't even know they exist.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
My only other solution would be to create a totally separate page (one for admin and another for non-admin). I would really like to avoid this.
Thanks in advance.

I would love to be able to generate my menus and
various other items in my htmlDB applications in much
the same way I can using ASP, PHP and Cold Fusion.
Users should have the ability to write server-side
code wherever they feel like it. The way htmlDB works
right now I spend more time trying to figure out how
to create simple effects and generate simple
interfaces when I need to be building a portal. Ami - it's important to understand that HTML DB is not like other languages. Thus, trying to force concepts which are common in other languages into HTML DB will often result in more work.
It's definitely worth the time to go over the HTML DB 2-day Developer, which can be found here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/htmldb/pdf/B14377_01.pdf
I can build a portal using Classic ASP, C#, PHP or Cold
Fusion in like 1/10 of the time that it takes me to
build one using htmlDB. I understand that this is not
meant for the hard-core programmer but no web
programming application in today's day and age should
prevent experts from getting under the hood.And I can build a Portal in HTML DB in 1/10 the time it will take me to do it in any other language. It's like anything else - proficiency comes with practice and work.
As for getting under the hood, there is plenty of places you can do that with HTML DB. Keep in mind that HTML DB itself is an HTML DB application, so the limits on what you can build with HTML DB are virtually limitless.
Sorry for the vent there. After spending the last 2
days trying to figure out how to implement such a
straightforward thing and now being informed that it
can't be done kind of bugged me.I understand your frustration, as I've been there before. My rule for beginners is that if you are writing more than a line or two of code in the first week, you're doing something wrong. Stop, take a break, and then use the ample resources (including searching this forum) to help solve your problem. There are plenty of resources available for you to learn about HTML DB on the HTML DB home page: http://otn.oracle.com/htmldb
Good luck,

Unable to create publication item for remote database using db link

The mobile repository is in instance A.
I have to access and sync data from a table in remote database instance B.
I have run the consolidator_rmt.sql script in instance B under schema_B. I have created a private fixed user db link in instance A under schema_A to access schema_B's tables. I then created a synonym test_B for table test_B in schema_B using the DB link.
While creating publication item for test_B using MDW, the column list for test_B appears blank. Has anyone encountered this problem and what is the solution.
Thanks for your help.

How to create list items with multiple attachment files using rest api javascript

In one of user form I am using javascript rest api to create a list item with multiple attachment files. So far I am able to create list item and once created uploading an attachment file. But this is two step process first create an item and then upload
a file.
It create an additional version of the item which is not desired. Also I am not able find a way to attach multiple files in a go. Following is the code I am using.
createitem.executeAsync({
url: "/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('UserForm')/items(1)/AttachmentFiles/add(FileName='" + aFile.name + "')",
method: "POST",
contentType: "application/json;odata=verbose",
headers: {
"Accept": "application/json;odata=verbose",
"X-RequestDigest": $("#__REQUESTDIGEST").val()
binaryStringRequestBody: true,
body: fileContent,
success: fnsuccess,
error: fnerror
So somehow I need to combine item attributes along with attachment files in body: param. I visited https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn531433.aspx#bk_ListItem but no success.
Appreciate any help.

Thanks Mahesh for the reply and post you share it was useful.
But this does not solve the core of the issue. You are uploading attachments after creation of item and multiple files are being attached in loop. This is kind of iterative update to an existing item with attachments. This will end up creating multiple versions.
What I am trying to achieve is to create an item along with multiple attachments in a go. No item updates further to attach a file.
Please suggest how this can be done in one go. SharePoint does it when one creates an item with multiple attachment.
Thanks for your reply.

Create Stop and Start Table item using HTMLDB_ITEM - APEX 2.2.0

Hi, all,
I guess the subject says it all. How can I create a Stop and Start Table item using HTMLDB_ITEM? I think I can just output "< /table >< table>", but I'd like to use the built-in function if there is one, in case the way tables are rendered were to change, or in case my thinking is wrong, which is always possible ; - )
Thanks, for this and for all of your help!

Don, there is no function provided for this.

How to update list item using client object model without changing created/modified dates?

Hello All,
I want to update list item using the SharePoint Client Object

Using the SystemUpdate method should do the trick, according

I am calling a action from a service order which will popup a window containing product tree. User will select the products. If a higher level product is select, child product will also be created as items with higher level item.
As I said the items are showing in the service order, but child item's higher level item is blank.
Cheers.

The Create List Item workflow action does not work in document library with document template

My end goal is more complex but below is a basic example of the issue I’m having that just simply does not work.
I'm trying to use a site workflow to create an item in a document library that has a document template applied to it but the file that gets created by the workflow is corrupt and cannot be opened.
I created a document library and edited the document template by adding some text to the header and changing it to a Word docx file instead of a Word dotx file. I tested the document template by clicking the files tab in the ribbon and then clicking new
document which opens the document template in Word and allows me to edit and save the document back to SharePoint. Then I created a SharePoint 2013 site workflow in SharePoint Designer that contains a single Create List Item action, and that action creates
an item in the document library with the name field statically defined. I published the workflow and then manually start it on the site. The workflow completes successfully and when I navigate to the document library the document has been created by the workflow.
When I click on the document to open it in the Word Web App it throws the error pictured below and if I open it in the Word client application it just opens a blank document and not the correct document template.
I also tried using a SharePoint 2010 workflow with pretty much the same results. Opening the document in Word Web App gives the same error as above and opening the document in the Word client application gives the error pictured below.
Come on Microsoft creating a Word Document in a SharePoint Document Library from a SharePoint Workflow should just work! Is this a bug or does anyone have any ideas on what is causing the this issue?

I had the same problem with corrupted document - this worked for me:
1. Create a 2010 Workflow which creates the list element in a document library
(you may start this workflow from your 2013 workflow if applicable)
2. In the Create New List Item properties - make sure to set ContentTypeId to your content type
("Id for indholdstype" is Danish for "Contenttype ID")
3. Your Content Type template should be a ".docx" file - NOT a ".dotx" file...!
(I have always created my templates for content types as .dotx files - seems Microsoft wants us to use ordinary .docx files as template files for content types)
Hope this helps you!
