Implementing BADI MD_ADD_COL_EZPS for MD04 custom column

Hi there,
I'm using BADI MD_ADD_COL_EZPS to display 3 new buttons and three new columns in MD04.
For each line item that is displayed, the custom column is filled, after the button is hit -This works fine.
My Question is:
Is there any way to limit the value that is filled into the new column so that it only appears on the FIRST line item/row?
(At the moment it is repeated all the way down the page - the new value is a material characteristic, so doesn't change, will always be the same for each line)
I've looked at all the available structures/tables in the FILL_ADD_COLUMNS method of the BADI, and none seem suitable
to determine the "first" row. (ie. something like the way SY-TABIX or SY-INDEX might be used)
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
David.

Hi Shubhendu,
in the method 'ACTIVATE_ADD_COLUMNS', you can set the flag EZ1_MODE to '1' to make the first column visible always. (it's been a while, but I think setting it to '2' makes it visible when the button is pressed.)
Same applies to EZ2_MODE for second column, EZ3_MODE for third.
look at the flags/parameters in this method, and also in FILL_ADD_COLUMNS, to fill the data.
here you need to fill structure EMDEZX_USEX1 (for column 1) etc.
The code is hit for each record displayed in MD04
Hopefully this helps you.
Regards,
David

LOV of column names with a report's custom column headings?

I have a list ov values definition that looks like this:
select column_name d, column_name r from all_tab_columns where table_name = 'DATABASE_LIST'
I'd like to list the custom column headings from a report as d, rather than repeating the column_name. How can I do this?

As Anton said, the best thing is to store your custom headings in a table so that you can use the table for your LOV as well as for your report headings.
To use dynamic report headings, you can use the 'PL/SQL function body returning colon-delimited headings' feature on the Report Attributes page.
So, if your report headings are stored in table t that function body can be
declare
l_headings varchar2(4000)
begin
for rec in (select heading from t) loop
l_headings := l_headings||':'||rec.heading;
end loop;
return ltrim(l_heading,':');
end;Hope this helps.

F-53 and F-28, Customized columns for cash discount and %

Hi Expert,
With reference to the subject of: Customized columns for cash discount and % ...
I faced the problem of not able to set / defined hidden column for cash discount and % by creating a new variant.
Steps:
Create a variant
Click <administrator> button ... mark the columns hidden, and click <activate> button
Then click <Save> button
Problem: Every time I using the F-53/F-28, the layout is not working, and when goto check the variant settings, the cash discount and % columns remained unchecked.
SAP version: 4.6
Kindly advise.
Thanks and regards,
sbmel

Hi JP,
It is not working using field status group, as I am using F-53 and F-28 and not FB50/60/70.
The purpose I want to create variant for screen after clicking <process open item> is to control column display (hide cash discount and %). if the variant is working, I can create a customized Tcode for the F-53 and F-28.
Now problem is that variant seem not working.
Thanks and regards,
sbmel

Is there an easy view of assigned Retention Tags in main view of Messages, e.g. a custom column?

Hi,
I have a requiement to have an easy/overall view of assigned Retention Policy tags against a list of messages in outlook 2010.
I envisage that if there was a column in the main message list view, that showed the assigned tag against each message and that could be sorted, e.g. so I can see what has an assigned tag (and what it is) and what doesn't, this would hit the mark perfectly.
Any such capability?
Can I create a custom column that extracts a message property to do this?
If so, how?
Thanks! David.

Hi Greg,
Sorry it's been a couple of days, it's been busy.
Unfortunately not. I raised it with our devs to take a look at. I was initially after an assessment of effort. But they were quoting me a number of days effort just to get to the point of being able to tell me how long it would take. At that point I
pulled it, as it wasn't a must-have requirement.
Still, it would have been nice.
To extract such a property, I might imagine an Outlook plug-in to extract the data from the property and watchers to look out for changes in various circumstances. In this way if you can get the data into a new Custom Message Property, a Column
will readily display it. It feels a little over-engineered and duplicates the data just to get it into a place to show it.
Maybe there are easier ways. But no, I didn't make progress.
All the best. Ta, /David.

Custom column added is not available for Calendar list view in SharePoint 2010

I created a custome column "Breakline" in a custom content type 'SM event", and applied the content type to a Calendar.
The column is listed under the content type "SM event" but it is not listed when I tried to modify the view using the "Breakline" column.
Does anyone know why?

I set "Breakline" hidden because I don't want to show this in create new item form.
I realized that may be the reason. So changed the column to Optional in CT and created a new calendar using that CT. then at list level CT I changed it to Hidden. That works. The column is available for use when modifying view.
Thanks

Custom column in a list view web part for a multilingual site does not take on custom language labels. Stays in default language.

Hello all,
I have what so far appears to be a fairly unique problem. We are running a multilingual SharePoint 2010 environment with English as the default language and French as the secondary. We have setup the sites in a variance relationship, but the
issue I am discussing happens outside of a variant as well.
We have created a library outside the variant (but within the collection) that the two sites must share. A list view web part was created via Designer to add to each site to provide a quick view into the list. If we are in the libary and switch
to French, then update the column label it will remember the setting (because of the resource file) and maintain it as the language is flipped back and forth. Where it doesn't work is as a web part in a variant or where the language is different.
If the language is different, the out of the box columns work find, but the custom columns (all site columns not library\list columns) remain as the english label. It doesn't matter if within a variant or outside with the browser language changed.
It always reverts back to English. It's like it isn't using the same resource file that was used in the list itself.
I created a custom view and modified it with xslt as per
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/50004/how-to-change-column-title-for-a-view-but-not-modify-the-list but this only worked within the list and did not occur in the list view either.
I can't be the first that has come across it, either I am not performing my searches properly, no one has ever documented a fix for this or this is something we just can't fix with OOTB tools. That's the other thing, the solution has to be accomplised
OOTB or with minor client side changes. I can't fire up Visual Studio because they are piloting Office 365 and have put a "No custom code" mandate on for migration.
Thank you all in advance.

Ok, I have come up with a solution. I edited the XSLT for the web part on the page. I did the following:
1.   Create the variants in the Site Ccollection
2.   Create the library outside of the variants.
3.   Add all the columns you require for the library. It is very important all the columns are there before you move on.
4.   Create a French and English view.
5.   Create the list view web part via designer.
6.   Add the list view web part to each site selecting the appropriate view to use.
7.      Edit the page in SharePoint Designer 2010.
8.      Place cursor in the column you wish to modify.
9.      Click Design in the List View Tools on the ribbon.
10.     Then click Customize XSLT and select Customize Item. Select this option otherwise you will generate a **LOT** of unnecessary XSL code.
11.     You are looking for a piece that resembles the following:
        <xsl:with-param name="fieldtitle">
          <xsl:value-of select="@DisplayName"/>
        </xsl:with-param>
12.      Modify it by typing in the actual column name you want. You should end up with something like this:
        <xsl:with-param name="fieldtitle">
          New Column Name.
        </xsl:with-param>
13.      Now, for this page only, the column will be renamed.
There are some caveats:
1.   Doesn’t appear to work in a publishing portal. I think this has to do with how SP stores the pages in this case. In a publishing portal you can only modify the page layout which won’t work as we need to modify the content.
2.   If you add another column, you will need to repeat the XSLT modification
Anyways, I hope this helps out any others with the same issue or need as I had.

Custom column in List view

Dear guru's,
I'd like to ask you if its possible to add custom column in list view. For example in tc. FBL1N I'd like to add a column with custom text (for example with value "1" for counting the sum of rows). Is it possible to do without creating custom program?
Thank you all.
Regards.
Michael.

Hi Michael,
It's not possible to add some extra text in standard out-put without modifying it or creating custom program.
For adding a column in your list view. I think this write statement will help you
WRITE 'You can overwrite the following line:'.
FORMAT INPUT ON INTENSIFIED OFF.
WRITE 'WRITE HERE'.
FORMAT INPUT OFF INTENSIFIED ON.

Addition of a custom column in a table view

Hi all,
I want to add a custom column in a table view. Kindly tell me if this is possible.
Regards,
Vivek Pandey

Hi Vivek,
This can definately be done....you will have to declare and iterator and in the GET_COLUMN_DEFINITIONS, declare the column name....
Referr to blogs :
<a href="/people/brian.mckellar/blog/2003/10/31/bsp-programming-htmlb-tableview-iterator Basics</a>
and
<a href="/people/thomas.jung3/blog/2004/09/15/bsp-150-a-developer146s-journal-part-xi--table-view-iterators Iterator.</a>
The second blog shows how to insert a icon, which is an extra column...
Hope this helps.

Import From Folder: How to Extract the File Name in a Custom Column.

Hello All
Here´s what we´re trying to do:
We have a folder with csv files named like this:
Sales_2013-02-05.csv
Sales_2013-02-04.csv
Sales_2013-02-03.csv
Sales_2013-02-02.csv
Sales_2013-02-01.csv
And in the csv files there are the sales columns but not the date column.
So we want to extract the date from the file name.
I´ve tried entering = Source[Name] in a custom column, but it adds a "LIST" link, and on a click on expand, it adds ALL file names from the folder in each row, instead of just the needed one.
If we could get the proper file name in each row (from where they got extracted), we could split the column and get the date from there. But I don´t know how put the filename there properly.
Can you help?

This isn't entirely straightforward, but it's definitely possible. What you need to do is to apply all of your transforms to each individual file instead of the combined files. I do that as follows:
1) Use Folder.Files as generated by the GUI to look at the list of my files.
2) Pick one file and do all the transformations to it that I want to apply to all of the files. Sometimes, this just amounts to letting the autodetection figure out the column names and types.
3) Go into the advanced editor and edit my code so that the transformations from step 2 are applied to all files. This involves creating a new function and then applying that function to the content in each row.
4) Expand the tables created in step 3.
As an example, I have some files with names that match the ones you suggested. After steps 1 + 2, my query looks like the following:
let
    Source = Folder.Files("d:\testdata\files"),
    #"d:\testdata\files\_Sales_2013-02-01 csv" = Source{[#"Folder Path"="d:\testdata\files\",Name="Sales_2013-02-01.csv"]}[Content],
    #"Imported CSV" = Csv.Document(#"d:\testdata\files\_Sales_2013-02-01 csv",null,",",null,1252),
    #"First Row as Header" = Table.PromoteHeaders(#"Imported CSV"),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"First Row as Header",{{"One", Int64.Type}, {"Two", type text}, {"Three", type text}})
in
    #"Changed Type"
For step 3, I need to take steps 3-5 of my query and convert them into a function. As a check, I can apply that function to the same file that I chose in step 2. The result looks like this:
let
    Source = Folder.Files("d:\testdata\files"),
    Loader = (file) =>
        let
            #"Imported CSV" = Csv.Document(file,null,",",null,1252),
            #"First Row as Header" = Table.PromoteHeaders(#"Imported CSV"),
            #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"First Row as Header",{{"One", Int64.Type}, {"Two", type text}, {"Three", type text}})
        in
            #"Changed Type",
    #"d:\testdata\files\_Sales_2013-02-01 csv" = Source{[#"Folder Path"="d:\testdata\files\",Name="Sales_2013-02-01.csv"]}[Content],
    Loaded = Loader(#"d:\testdata\files\_Sales_2013-02-01 csv")
in
    Loaded
Now I apply the same function to all of the rows, transforming the existing "Content" column into a new value:
let
    Source = Folder.Files("d:\testdata\files"),
    Loader = (file) =>
        let
            #"Imported CSV" = Csv.Document(file,null,",",null,1252),
            #"First Row as Header" = Table.PromoteHeaders(#"Imported CSV"),
            #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"First Row as Header",{{"One", Int64.Type}, {"Two", type text}, {"Three", type text}})
        in
            #"Changed Type",
    Transformed = Table.TransformColumns(Source, {"Content", Loader})
in
    Transformed
Finally, I need to expand out the columns in the table, which I can do by clicking on the expand icon next to the Content column header. The resulting query looks like this:
let
    Source = Folder.Files("d:\testdata\files"),
    Loader = (file) =>
        let
            #"Imported CSV" = Csv.Document(file,null,",",null,1252),
            #"First Row as Header" = Table.PromoteHeaders(#"Imported CSV"),
            #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"First Row as Header",{{"One", Int64.Type}, {"Two", type text}, {"Three", type text}})
        in
            #"Changed Type",
    Transformed = Table.TransformColumns(Source, {"Content", Loader}),
    #"Expand Content" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(Transformed, "Content", {"One", "Two", "Three"}, {"Content.One", "Content.Two", "Content.Three"})
in
    #"Expand Content"
From here, you should be able to get to what you want.

How to set a custom column in a workflow task.

Hello,
I'm looking for some assistance a bit with how to set a custom column in a Workflow Task.
I have a List Workflow that starts when an item is created in a list. The workflow, platform type SharePoint 2013, starts a new task, Task1, with Content Type 1. This Content Type has a custom column called Age. Once the Task1 is completed a new task, Task2,
with Content Type 2, starts and has the same column Age, as Task1.
How can I populate the Age column in Task2 with the content of the Age column in Task1?
Since I start the task by running "Assign a task to ..." Action I was thinking to copy the Age column from the Task1 to the list item that started Task1, which has a column Age as well, and then in Task2 to start another workflow - which is associated
with the Content Type 2, that would try to read the Age column from the list item that started Task2, which was set once Task1 was competed - I know it's complex but this is how I was thinking.
The problem with this approach is that I can't get a reference to the list item that started Task2 to read the Age from the list item.
Is there a better approach? I use SharePoint Designer 2013 to design all this.
Any assistance is appreciated.
Thank you.

Hello Sebastian,
you can get the Age column from Task 1 and then update the Task 2 Age column with that value. I am not sure why you want to run another workflow on Task 2.
You can perform below steps to set Age column from Task 1 to Task 2.
1. Create Task 1 using Assign a task , wait till the task is completed.
2. Get the Age column value based on Task 1 once the task is completed.
3.Create Task 2 using Assign a task , uncheck wait till the task is completed option.
4. Update the Task 2 with Age column in Task1.
5. Use Wait for the field to equal value , check for Task Status is completed or not.
>>The problem with this approach is that I can't get a reference to the list item that started Task2 to read the Age from the list item.
you can get the related item from task list item to get the main list item.
Other option is, Use Javascript and CSOM in task edit form to get the Age column from Task1 and prepoluate the Age value when Task2 is opened.
Hope this helps.

SharePoint 2013 Make Calculated Column based on Custom Column

In SharePoint 2013, I am trying to create a Calculated Column that is a shortened display of another Custom Column. The Calculated Column would just show the first 100 characters concatenated with "..." like in the following formula:
=LEFT([CustomColumn],100)&"..."
However, every time that I go to create this calculated column, SharePoint doesn't provide my [CustomColumn] in the "Insert Column:" list. If I type it in anyway, SharePoint throws an error.
Details on my Column, List, and Site below:
Col. Type: Multiple lines of text
Col. Group: Custom Columns
Col. Text Type: Enhanced rich text
List Content Type: Custom Type Inherits from Event
Site Type: Publishing
Also, to no avail, I found this similar post (link below), but creating the Site Column and Calculated Column
before adding it to the Content Type did not work for me.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/26a7517e-ba43-4c49-95aa-3e6f7f4207ba/calculated-field-in-content-type-not-working
Anyone out there know how to coax SharePoint into submission?!

Multi lines of text are one of the types of columns which can't be used by calculated columns/fields. Among such unusable columns are also Lookup columns, People columns, External Columns, MMS columns, etc.

Updating custom column in Existing workitem after Refresh click in SBWP

Hi Experts,
Scenario:
After the PO, the invoice receipt from vendor is scanned to PDF. In OAWD transaction user as below they provide the description.
A work item comes to SBWP for task TS000007869(standard) for the corresponding Invoice. The description that we provide in OAWD comes as a title in inbox. Business Object used : IMAGE (has no link with PO),
So I am thinking if we ask client to provide PO no. in format:: <Description>_ <PO no> , then we can extract the PO from the description and then corresponding GR is weather made or not.
Requirement :
Client wants to add another column to that SBWP inbox which will notify them that weather GR for for corresponding PO is made or not by some status sign.
Problems :
BO (IMAGE) has no link with PO as its only processing the scanned PDF.
No idea for situation where after the creation of work item in SBWP if any dynamic value can be updated or not in the custom column, (i.e at the time work item creation if GR is not made and say after 2 hrs GR is made, so when click REFRESH button in SBWP the new column should be updated with some sign)
Hope you experts got my issue nd kindly provide me some suggestions.
Revert for any clarifications.
Thanks.

Hi Soumya
The Task TS000007869, is it stand alone - triggered directly by an application or is part of a workflow in your system?
If it's a standalone, not much can be done as you would need to do some coding for your requirement.
If it's a part of the workflow, you can create a virtual attribute in the base BO, in the coding of which would read the description, extract the PO, get the GR, if found set the attribute value to YES. Then set the dynamic columns (see link: Create Dynamic Columns - Wiki - SCN Wiki ) . Whenever the list is refreshed, the virtual attributes are recalculated and would let the users know the GR status.
However, there can be a performance impact as this will happen for all workitems of that Task.
also, the column names will be displayed with the header specified in the configuration SWL1 only when all the work items in the inbox belong to the same task. Otherwise, it will use ‘Dynamic Column’ as the header of the column.
Also see if you can use BADI WF_BWP_DYN_COLUMN ...some points can be picked up from SCN thread: http://scn.sap.com/thread/2007514
