Custom Field Searches in Acrobat possible?

Hello,
We have been given 2 projects to undertake.
Project 1: Scan a number of annually published printed books to searchable (ocr) pdf format. This isn't a problem.
Project 2: The above annually published printed books are now required to be published electronically on CD. We have the electronic content of the next book in Microsoft Excel format. The data is primarily made up of titles & headers and then a hundreds of names (surname, forename). We are comfortable that we can dynamically create and format the PDF book from the Excel file. However, our client has asked if it is possible to perform exact field searches on the data fields that we have imported from Excel. So (rather than do an open freetext search) have the ability to search like: surname = smith; forename = john. The visitor would then see the results in a similar way as to how the index catalog output looks (ie. you see the matching page results on the left).
Question: Is this possible using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro?
Question: If not, is there another product that could be used?
Really appreciate your help with this.
Thank you,
Paul

This can be done. In fact, it is kind of part of the PDFFolio system I developed some years ago. This system was, for example, used in the IRS Tax Products CDs for a few years.
Feel free to contact me in private for further conversations in order to provide a quote.
Hope this can help.

Search Help for Infotype Custom Field

Hi,
I have created a search help for a custom field in an infotype. What would be the best way of filtering the help selection based on infotype values such as molga, begda, endda?
Thanks in advance.
/Elvez

Hi Nishanth,
thanks for your reply, perhaps I should clarify my question:
1) I have a custom field in an infotype
2) I have a table containing the search help information
3) I assigned a search help to the custom field
4) I have activated a search help exit
The problem is that the information that I get from the custom field is not sufficient for making the selection. Therefore, I would like to somehow get hold of the addition information, such as BEGDA, ENNDA, MOLGA, to do a proper selection in the search help exit. How can I achieve that?
I read something about function module DYNP_VALUES_READ -would it be possible to call this function module from my search help exit and thereby reach my goal?

Content Search web part - Display Project Enterprise Custom Fields and Lookup Tables

My ultimate goal is to display a rollup table of our active projects (from PWA) on another site collection using the content search web part. I can return default properties (such as the project name, author and URL) fairly easily using the same basic steps
in the link below.
http://en.share-gate.com/blog/roll-up-sharepoint-2013-sites-using-search
My problem is that I want to also display information associated with each project from our PWA enterprise custom fields (such as risk, phase, etc.)
Because these custom fields do not appear to be site columns, I'm at a bit of a loss as to how this data is searched / indexed / mapped.
Is it possible to display PWA enterprise custom fields in a content search web part?

Hi Jennifer,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display PWA enterprise custom fields in a Content Search web part in SharePoint 2013.
As your active projects were from different site collection with the Content Search web part, you need to do a crawl for the content source, then create a managed property for the column in CA->Search Service Application->Search Schema. When you create
the managed property, select Searchable, Queryable, Retrievable. Then map it to the crawled property based on the custom column. You can find the crawled property by searching the name of the column in crawled properties.
More information, please refer to the link:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219667(v=office.15).aspx
I hope this helps.
Thanks,

OIM 11g r1 custom field in simple user search result

Good morning,
i need to visualize a custom field in the OIM simple user search result table. At the moment, when a simple user search is performed, the returned attribute is only the "Display Name".
For the advanced user search result table, is possible to add other fields modifying the Search Results table configuration in Advanced->User configuration->Search Configuration.
How can i do the same the for simple user search result?
Thank you.

Yes, i tried to add my custom attribute to both Simple and Adv search result table, but without luck. Only Display Name column attribute is shown when a simple search is performed.

Extending the Search Object of a BOL Entity with custom fields

Hi All,
I have to enhance the structure of the BOL search object 'BuilHeaderSearch' with custom fields!.
i went to the transaction genil_bol_browser and find out the structure of the object as, 'CRMST_HEADER_SEARCH_BUIL'
how can i insert custom fields into this structure, so that i can display these custom fields at the Front end ( Web IC ).
Thanks in advance,
sudeep v d.

Hi Sudeep!
First of all it should be mentioned that: it is NOT possible to change list of SEARCH criteria in IC!
So, in other words, you can search BP ONLY by params listed in native structure 'CRMST_HEADER_SEARCH_BUIL'.
BUT: You can FILTER search results!
For example: you get the list of BP with MC_NAME1 (lastname) search criteria (only by SAP class!)and THEN you can filter (delete from list) by YOUR criteria (in your class!).
Is it clear?
So how to add your own criteria?
1. Transaction GENIL_MODEL_BROWSER - Model Browser forGen.IL Applications
2. Component Set - ALL
3. Search Objects -> BuilHeaderSearch -> Attribute Structure ->CRMST_HEADER_SEARCH_BUIL (Dbl Click)
4. Append Structure (or F5)
5. Name the new sub-structure and provide all new fields
So now you can use this new fields in IC Z-classes.
I had the same task and nobody in SDN could help - so I had bought new SAP_book: <a href="http://www.sappress.com/product.cfm?account=&product=H1909">mySAP CRM Interaction Center</a> because in Contents there were:
"Extending the Business Partner Search in IC WebClient by New Search Fields".
So in fact it is not truth: it is not possible to extend search. You can only filter results!
BUT!
It is not the end of my post! I hope that SAP people will see this post. I found a BUG in SAP classes and methods: it is not possible to navigate to first position in collection wraper!
exactly:
lr_current ?= entity_col->if_bol_bo_col~get_first( ).
doesn't work.
So position of cursor puts on second record in structure!
In other words it is not possible to filter the first record in search result! And so new search is not efficient
I think that is is bug and wait for comments of SAP.
Reward points if it helps.
Regards,
Alexander

SRM Portal - Search help for a custom field

Hi,
I have added a custom field to the SRM Portal (5.0) shopping cart, by adding the field to structures INCL_EEW_PD_ITEM_CSF INCL_EEW_PD_ITEM_CSF_SC.
However, I need to filter the search help for that custom field, based on values & relationships stored in a Z table.
Is this possible? How? Please help.
Thank You.

Currently, my idea would be to create a search help for the custom field & filter the values in a search help exit. However, would I be able to get other field values (standard) from SRM into my search help exit?

Searching Custom fields Bridge CS3

Hello
I created a custom file info dialog box in Bridge CS3 using the audio data 1.txt file located @ C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\XMP\Custom File Info Panels. I just modified the fields in that panel to my own custom fields.
Now I saved as test.txt in the same location as the audio data 1.txt file- and my new custom panel shows up in the metadata panel and I can add values to my custom fields as I would any other. My question is - how do I search these fields as they do not show up in the filter panel- Is it possible to have these fields show up in the filter panel?
Thanks

OK
I guess I haven't explained myself clearly-
Forget about keywords- Keywords are dead to me
If you go to the metadata panel in Bridge you see
File properties
IPTC Core
Audio
Video
Audio Data 1
Audio Data 2
etc...
Take "Audio Data 1" for example
I modified that .txt file so that where the field was Artist- I changed it to Sport
So now I can add
Baseball in the sport field so my custom panel looks like this
Sport: Baseball
Team: Wildcats
Player; JG
Position: CF
my question really is- about the filter panel- the Sport, Team, Player, Position fields do not show up in there, instead Artist, Album, and Genre show up in the filter panel. and When you click on the dropdown box for Artist it reads baseball- I need to change the Artist to Sport just like in the metadata panel so in the future these custom fields can be searched

Multiple selection customer field at header level... Is it possible?

Y'all,
I would like to know if it's possible to append a table into the include structure (CUF) at header level in the contract and create a search help screen with multiple selection values return.
This requirement comes because we have to mantain a 1:N relationship between a contract and customer field at header level.
If you have any idea or comment please let me know.
Best regards,
Jerry.

Search on the custom field in Product doesn't work

Hello everyone!
Lately I was configuring additional custom field for product header and succeed. Then I wanted to add this field as a search criteria for product search and I followed help on help.sap.com and note 1026956. Here are the steps I did:
1. I've extended structures CRMT_PRIL_QUERY_ADVSEARCH_PROD and CRMT_PRIL_QUERY_ADVSEARCH_IOBJ with my custom attribute.
2. I went to Master Data->Products-> Basic Settings ->Add Attributes to Search Structure and added my custom attribute there.
3. Then I found out that it's not enough and I should perform additional steps not included in note and help. I did these steps suggested by Shanthala Kudva in thread [Can't enable the extendable set type attributes in product search UI|Can't enable the extendable set type attributes in product search UI;.
After that I was able to configure UI and see the search criteria, but when I try to search using custom field I get error message: "Search criteria PRODUCT_ANKER.ZCAT_NUMBER in scenario CL_CRM_PRSEARCHSCENARIO_GETLST not included in tool/filter"
How to find out the reason of this behavior? Did I miss something in configuration?
P.S. Set type called ZPRODUCT, attribute ZCATNUMBER. In structures appended component called ZCAT_NUMBER with component type ZCATNUMBER. In table CRMC_PRSEA_ATTR the record has the attributename ZCAT_NUMBER, attribute_id ZCATNUMBER. Maybe I messed up with that?
Regards,
Alex.

Hi Alexander,
I know this is an old post, but currently i am facing the same issue of not being able to see my custom fields in the BSP Component Workbench.
I tried to follow all steps maintained in SAP Note # 10269656 & 1541480, but no luck.
Can you please tell me what do you mean by "Should not add the extended attributes directly to Search Structure, as SAP expects the attributes to be in APPEND structure"? Can you please let me know how the values are to be maintained in the Search structure table "CRMC_PRSEA_ATTR", which is also accessed using the IMG Meanu path "Master Data --> Products --> Basic Settings --> Add Attributes to Search Structure"
Appreciate your help.

Where it is possible to change the value separator in Custom Field?

Hello,
This is a question around the "Custom Fields" and "Lookup Table"
I linked a "Custom Field" to a "Lookup Table".
I select the option "Allow multiple values to be selected from lookup table"
When I used this "Custom Field" in a view, the selected values are separated by a comma ",".
Where it is possible to change this value?
I saw another project server where the character is a semi-column ";" and I would like to test with ";".
Thank you in advance
Pascal Jean

Hi,
This will be triggered by your regional settings.
Hope this helps,
Guillaume Rouyre, MBA, MVP, P-Seller |
Hello,
Thank you for the answer.
Do you mean the "local regional settings"?
Because, depending on the PWA site I'm connected to I don't have the same values. I'm obviously using the same workstation.

Custom Field in Account Assignment with search help functionality..

Hello friends,
I have added a custom field(Profit Center) in account assignment frame which is having search help also attached..
the data for search help read from R/3.. When i click the search help in WEB , I got an error message saying that 'No input help available ( Search help PRCTR_EMPTY is empty )
Any one have found this kind if issue?
please help out
Regards,
john.

Hi
You can create a custom search help (simialar to R/3 srch help for profit center) and create a corresponding search help exit for this purpose.
You need to call the R/3 table from SRM to get the required data and then map the data in to the search help fields.
Hope this will solve ur problem.

Adding custom fields to Embedded Search

Hi All,
I have read the post [here|How to add custom fields to Embedded Search; about adding custom fields to Embedded Search. I am looking to add Employee Subgroup for use in Talent Management (specifically the STVN SuccessionPlanning component) and wanted to know if anyone can expand on the instructions in the link to add this field.
It appears to be part of the HRTMC_PERSON search object connector already and while I've done some IMG configuration the field is showing in SuccessionPlanning, but not displaying any data.
Additionally, I'd be interested in any tips to add information that is not from PA0002 should it be required in the future.
Many thanks,
Luke

Hi Luke,
I am assuming here that your search request fields are based on HRTCM_CENTRALPERSON search template. To enable your search to work on employee subgroup please do the following
1) Check if the HRTMC_PERSON Template extracts the data from Infotype 0001 via SPRO node 'Define Search Models and Change Pointer' Extraction Class is 'CL_HRTMC_SEARCH_READ_PA_INFTY'.
2) Via ESH_COCKPIT, goto Template Modeler and select your custom Software Component and press Edit. Goto roadmap step 5 - Define Requests - where all search request fields are defined. Its using these fields Talent search works.
3) Select the search request e.g. 'SAP_TALENT_NAKISA', it would then show list searchable attributes in below table. Using 'Add' button select path for PERSK so that it can searched.
It would look like this once selected
OBJID(REL_CP_P)->HRTMC_REL_CP_P_209.REL_CP_P(REL_CP)->HRTMC_PERSON.OBJID->HRTMC_PERSON.ORG_ASSIGNMENT
4) In step SPRO 'Define Search Requests and Search Field Names' , define Employee subgroup field with AliasSearchField = PERSK since thats what is defined in roadmap step 5.
Hope it helps!

How to get value in custom field(Part OF BOL) in search result view.

Hi All,
I am new to CRM WEBUI and i am facing issue in populating value in one field of search result view.
Current requirement is .
On product f4 , we get search help and search result view.
one custom field need to be added in search result view ( for eg any description field).
This description field is already available in one of z relation maintained in PRODUCT root object.
Solution tried so Far:
1. We enhance one Standard Product structure and add that description field .
2. Add new field( description) in result view context node as attribute by using bol attribute.
3. Customize search result view and display that description field in result.
By doing above three steps, field is available in search result view.
but issue is we are not able to get values.
1st Approach: write code in getter and setter method . Pass the relation name and get the property of description field
in setter method, set the property.
Issue : we were not able to sort the values on this description field. so scrap this 1st approach
2nd Approach: In Event EH_Onsearch Help, we try to use collection wrapper to get current value of description
by using relation name .
We use component controller to set the value of description since searchresult view-conext node->result node is bound to one comp controller node.
but this solution also does not work..
Please advice us what approach we should use to get value in description field and sorting should also work.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Girish,
1. We enhance one Standard Product structure and add that description field .
2. Add new field( description) in result view context node as attribute by using bol attribute.
3. Customize search result view and display that description field in result.
By doing above three steps, field is available in search result view.
but issue is we are not able to get values.
1st Approach: write code in getter and setter method . Pass the relation name and get the property of description field and by using this approach we are able to get value but sorting was not working so we disable the sorting as it was not required by business.
if u need sorting on that field.
then u should go for value node approach and write code for getting value in get set method
and for sorting also , need to write code.
This is my understanding on this .
Please reward if this solution is helpful

New custom field in the POWL search criteria

Hi experts,
My requirement is to add a new custom field in the search criteria (Parameters)
In my Easy shopping card POWL. I need to add custom fields in search criteria.
I tried appending my custom fields in structure /SAPSRM/S_SEARCHFIELDS
And customized the POWL type DB criteria SAPSRM_FEEDER_SC by adding the custom field
But still the newly added search criteria is not displaying in the
Query SAPSRM_E_CHECKSTATUS_01 in powl_query transaction.
Kindly help me to solve this issue
Regards
Chinnaiya P

Hello Konstantin,
thanks for the reply...
I tried to add an extra Field(Company code) in POWL Search. the problem is the Field Company code doesnt get updated in BBP_PDHSC and BBP_PDISC with the value used in while creating SC.
I only get the Company code value in table BBP_PDBEI for SC.
So when i give any value in POWL search for company code no data is shown even though the SC was created in the inputted Company code.
so how to go about adding CC as search criteria in POWL so that the resultant output is filtered on the basis of CC value.
Thanks
Rajat
