Custom Object Limitations

Hello guys,
I am trying to document all the limitations of custom object and new features added in new releases of COD.
If anyone has any documentation or want to share some points, it will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
asmi

The number of custom currency in CO 1-6 is 25. The number of custom picklist in CO 1-6 is 100. The number of custom short text fields in CO 1-3 is 60. The number of custom short text fields in CO 4-6 is 90. The number of custom long text fields in CO 1-6 is 30. You will find a table providing this information (page 928-930) in the R17 Online Help document.

Multiple logical disks as custom objects

Hello All,
I have been working with PowerShell for a few months now and my goal is to help my colleagues perform the same tasks a little faster.
As such I took on the responsibility of creating a little GUI tool to find some details about a remote computer.
I have created as advanced function with a custom object.
I am limited to PowerShell V2 as this is the version used in the company.
the function is as below:
<#
.Synopsis
Short description
.DESCRIPTION
Long description
.EXAMPLE
Example of how to use this cmdlet
.EXAMPLE
Another example of how to use this cmdlet
#>
function Get-PartitionInfo
[CmdletBinding()]
Param
# Computer Name
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true,ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName=$true,Position=0)]
[string[]]$ComputerName
Process
Write-Verbose "Testing Machine"
if(Test-Connection $computername -Count 1 -Quiet)
Try
Write-Verbose "Gathering Data"
$partitions = Get-WmiObject -Class win32_logicalDisk -ComputerName $computername -ErrorAction Stop
$myobj = @{
'Device ID' = $partitions.DeviceID
'Access' = $partitions.Access
'Compressed' = $partitions.Compressed
'Drive Type' = $partitions.DriveType
'File System' = $partitions.FileSystem
'Free Space' = $partitions.FreeSpace
'Media Type' = $partitions.MediaType
'Size' = $partitions.Size
'Name' = $partitions.Name
Write-Output "Partition information"
Write-Output (New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property $myobj)
Catch
Write-Output "Machine not online or PowerShell is unable to read it"
Write-Output "$($Error[0])"
else
Write-Output "Machine not online"
Please excuse the fact that is is not complete, after I get it to work it will be polished.
My problem is as follows:
The output of this function is correct but, it is as below:
Partition information
Drive Type : {3, 5, 3}
Compressed : {False, $null, False}
Device ID : {C:, D:, E:}
Size : {167772155904, $null, 5356126208}
Name : {C:, D:, E:}
Free Space : {71496396800, $null, 5356109824}
Access : {0, $null, 0}
Media Type : {12, 11, 12}
File System : {NTFS, $null, FAT32}
What I am trying to do is to separate the partitions but have not had any success.
Searched high and low for a solution to list custom objects one by one.
Anyone have any ideea if this can be done?

You have to enumerate the results of the WMI.
You are also sort of off when it comes to how to develop output with PowerShell.
You are tryingtoo do too many things that you do not understand and they are all conflicting. YOu cannot nis Write-Outpur statements into a colleciotn or it will not output correctly. Study the basics of how PowerShell does output
Here is how to get the output objects. Test it manually with a number of computers to see how the output changes. Try to understand why.
$computer=$env:computername
if(Test-Connection $computer -Count 1 -Quiet){
Get-WmiObject -Class win32_logicalDisk -ComputerName $computer |
Select Access,Compressed,DriveType,FileSystem,FreeSpace,MediaType,Size,Name
}else{
Write-Host 'Machine not online or PowerShell is unable to read it'
Once you understand why I did it this way and why it works you will have the basics needed to understand how to generalize.
Try not to write or use code that you do notunderstand. Test and ask question. Build the knowledge base from the ground up.

Export Custom Object search results

I've selected my search criteria in one of my customer objects. The result is a set of records containing specific data items that I need. This data is not available in the contact record. I need to export just this set of records and not my entire Customer Object universe. Is that functionality available? Any help is appreciated.

Method 1:
Custom object > Reporting (drop-down from the top-right) > Custom Object Record Field Values (or percentages)
Select your field, click "Select"
Click into any field values that interest you
Observe an exportable list of records
(Limitation = cannot use wildcards)
Method 2:
Insight. This requires the analyzer license. Custom Object Record values are not subject to the normal 24 hour delay that almost all other data is. At most there is a ~30 second delay between CDOs and Insight.
Ensure that the Custom Object Record and the fields from it you want are available in Insight. You want to include your unique field because the values are deduplicated in Insight otherwise. Build a report that includes the unique field and the field your value of interest is in. Filter on the column of interest and run the report. Export as desired.
Method 3:
API. From any open Eloqua window where you've already logged in, go to this URL: https://secure.eloqua.com/api/docs/dynamic/rest/1.0/reference.aspx
(This is not for the tame and feint of heart.)

Custom Objects details

Hello,
Does anyone have a clear and detailed overview from the Custom Objects? I know the general limitations of the new CO's like webservices and all, but if I am not mistaking there were or are also differences between CO3 and CO's 1 + 2, mainly with the relationships to other object types.
Kind regards,
Niels Rekers

Bob,
Thanks for the suggestion but I am not looking at the reporting functionalities of the Custom Objects at the moment. I am planning a couple of changes that will require the use of custom objects and change the current use of some custom objects as we cannot use the full functionality (e.g. teams, webservices, books, attachments) as we can with CO1 or CO2. So I would really need a complete overview with a level of detail that shows the relationships per CO to other objects for both webservices as is available in the system itself.
I have also logged a Service Request for this, as my requirements should be known within Oracle, but that is already open for more than a month without a proper answer.
Kind regards,
Niels Rekers

Create a custom object

can I create a custom object? or do I have to modify an existing one?
thanks

Currently there is a limitation. You can use the existing 3 custom objects. You wont be able to create additional custom objects.

Performance issue in Webi rep when using custom object from SAP BW univ

Hi All,
I had to design a report that runs for the previous day and hence we had created a custom object which ranks the dates and then a pre-defined filter which picks the date with highest rank.
the definition for the rank variable(in universe) is as follows:
<expression>Rank([0CALDAY].Currentmember, Order([0CALDAY].Currentmember.Level.Members ,Rank([0CALDAY].Currentmember,[0CALDAY].Currentmember.Level.Members), BDESC))</expression>
Now to the issue I am currently facing,
The report works fine when we ran it on a test environment ie :with small amount of data.
Our production environment has millions of rows of data and when I run the report with filter it just hangs.I think this is because it tries to rank all the dates(to find the max date) and thus resulting in a huge performance issue.
Can someone suggest how this performance issue can be overcome?
I work on BO XI3.1 with SAP BW.
Thanks and Regards,
Smitha.

Hi,
Using a variable on the BW side is not feasible since we want to use the same BW query for a few other reports as well.
Could you please explain what you mean by 'use LAG function'.How can it be used in this scenario?
Thanks and Regards,
Smitha Mohan.

How to create the data for custom objects in pList

Hi,
I am new in developing on iPhone and I don't know much about this area. I would like to ask a question. I couldn't find the answer on this question in apple documentation but I hope Internet community will help me.
Lets say I have a class called classA. The classA has 2 public properties (or fields):
*int customIndex*;
and
NSString *customTitle;
My view controller class showMeSomething has a property NSArray which holds the objects of type classA. I would like to load the array from the plist resource file. How do I edit the resource file with initial values or how do I know the format of the plist which can be loaded from using mainBundle for my array of custom objects?
Thanks!

Here's some info on working with plists:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/PropertyLists/Introduc tion/chapter1_section1.html
They can be edited with any text editor. Xcode provides a graphical editor for them - make sure to use the .plist extension so Xcode will recognize it.

Generate quote off custom object--HTML in narrative duplicates table

Hi,
I am trying to build a quote header and lines off a custom object. Quote header works, but I am using a separate narrative report called from a web link to show the quote item lines data. The narrative section displays my basic table header and lines, but since the report returns two rows for the selected parts, the table with the header and lines is displayed twice, once for each row returned by the report itself.
I just want one instance of the table, one header and two lines, not separate tables for each part.
Here is the sample html placed in the narrative section of the report.
<TABLE BORDER="5" WIDTH="50%" CELLPADDING="4" CELLSPACING="3">
<TR>
<TH COLSPAN="2"><BR><H3>TABLE TITLE</H3>
</TH>
</TR>
<TR ALIGN="CENTER">
<TH>Column A</TH><TD>@5</TD><TH>Column B</TH><TD>@8</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
Many thanks for any input.

Hi,
Instead of putting it all in the Narrative section you could use the Prefix and Postfix like below:

<TABLE BORDER="5" WIDTH="50%" CELLPADDING="4" CELLSPACING="3">
<TR>
<TH COLSPAN="2">
TABLE TITLE
</TH>
</TR>
<TR ALIGN="CENTER">
<TH>Column A</TH><TH>Column B</TH>
</TR>

<TR ALIGN="CENTER"><TD>@5</TD><TD>@8</TD>
</TR>

</TABLE>

Event Bubbling Custom Object not inheriting from control

One of the new things flash flex and xaml have are ways which
the event easily bubbles up to a parent that knows how to handle
the event. Similar to exceptions travel up until someone catches
it.
My goal is to use the frameworks event system on custom
objects. My custom objects are:
ApplicationConfiguration
through composition contains:
SecurityCollection which contains many or no SecurityElements
and
FileSystemCollection.cs which contains many or no
FileSystemElement objects
ect ect basically defining the following xml file with custom
objects.
[code]
<ApplicationConfiguration>
<communication>
<hardwareinterface type="Ethernet">
<ethernet localipaddress="192.168.1.2" localport="5555"
remoteipaddress="192.168.1.1" remoteport="5555" />
<serial baudrate="115200" port="COM1" />
</hardwareinterface>
<timing type="InternalClock" />
</communication>
<filesystem>
<add id="location.scriptfiles" value="c:\\" />
<add id="location.logfiles" value="c:\\" />
<add id="location.configurationfiles" value="c:\\" />
</filesystem>
<security>
<add id="name1" value="secret1" />
<add id="name2" value="secret2" />
</security>
<logging EnableLogging="true"
LogApplicationExceptions="true" LogInvalidMessages="true"
CreateTranscript="true" />
</ApplicationConfiguration>
[/code]
basically these custom objects abstract the xml details of
accessing attributes, writing content out of the higher application
layers.
These custom objects hold the application configuration which
contains the users options. The gui application uses these
parameters across various windows forms, modal dialog boxes ect.
The gui has a modal dialog that allows the user to modify these
parameters during runtime.
basically i manage: load, store, new, edit, delete of these
configuration files using my custom objects.
Where would event propagation help in custom objects like
described above?
ConfigurationSingleton.getInstance().ApplicationConfiguration.CommunicationElement.Hardwar eInterfaceElement.EthernetElement.RemoteIPAddress
=
System.Net.IPAddress.Parse(this.textBoxRemoteEthernetIpAddress.Text);
The EthernetElement should propagate a changed event up to
the parent ApplicationConfiguration which would persist this to the
registry, db, file or whatever backend.
currently this logic is maintained else where. I serialize
the root node which compositely serializing the nested nodes and i
check of the serialization is different from that in the backend
… This tells me if the dom was modified. It works but i would
like an event driven system.
how should i implement bubbling using custom objects?
3 implementation ideas:
1) A simple way is to implement a singleton event manager:
EventManager.RegisterRoutedEvent
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms742806.aspx
I like this idea but how can you tell which object is nested
in who… this way the event can be stopped and discontinue
propagation?
2) If i use binders as discussed in Apress’s book:
Event-Based
Programming Taking Events to the Limit
basically a binder connects the events between seperate
objects together… although it would work for my app, I would
like a more generalized approach so i can reuse the event system on
future project.
3) how does flash flex handle this..
objectproxy.as?
http://www.gamejd.com/resource/apollo_alpha1_docs/apiReference/combined/mx/utils/ObjectPro xy.html#getComplexProperty()
>Provides a place for subclasses to override how a complex
property that needs to be either proxied or daisy chained for event
bubbling is managed.
how does these systems all work....? Reflection ?
this way i can simulate this on my own custom classes.
Thanks!

I have a strong sensation that the OSMF project is quite dead.
no new submits since 2010, the contact form on the offical OSMF
project website http://www.opensourcemediaframework.com/
returns a PHP error.
and many unanswered questions about OSMF in this forum.
i think it would be wise to not use OSMF if possible, although
I'm also stuck with it since we are utilizing HDS/PHDS
protocols which are utilized in the framework.
otherwise its quite a head-ache.
I'm unable to get to a video element coming from a proxied element
that is being produced via an HDS connection.
and haven't found any solution that works.

How can I disable a Custom Object Test?

I wonder if there is a way to disable a Custom Object Test. When I do a right click I don't see the option as in the other items under the frame node. I don't want to delete them because I may use them as reference in the future. So far I've been saving the file with a different name in order to preserve them, but, I don't want to have too many unused files around.

In order to disable a Custom Object Test right click on the Custom Object Test node and select "Script VBA Properties...". In the window that is opened uncheck "e-Tester" if you want to disable it when playing back in eTester for regression testing. The other two checkboxes are to disable the execution of the Custom Object Test when running the script in eLoad.

Checking the status of task records tied to the custom object 3

We are using custom object 3
There has been lot of configuration work done on this object.
There is a checkbox on the UI. When a user will checks off the check box, a task record(s) is created depending on the condition.
Is there a way for me to check the status on the task records and then set a field on the parent record i.e. custom object 3.
Thanks,

Using a Custom Object to allow an Entity to link to itself

Hey folks,
Have a feeling the answer to this is No, but have to ask anyway.
Is there any way that anyone is aware of to use a Custom Object to link an Entity to itself? For example... We have a CO (Custom Object) which is linked to Service Request. I want to link this CO to Service Request again, allowing one Service Request to be linked to another Service Request via the CO. I can obviously link Service Request to the CO, but the second link doesn't seem likely.
Cheers,
Mark

You can link multiple Service Requests to a single Custom Object (1-3) very easliy. Just expose SRs under related items on the Custom Object and adjust Access Profiles appropriately. Alternately, you can add Custom Objects to related items on the Service Request page layout so SRs can be linked to multiple COs.
In the end, you can end up with one CO linked to multiple SRs. This should give you what you are looking for - there may be more elaborate solutions involving multiple advanced custom objects.
The key, of course, is how you need this data to be viewed or reported on. You'll need to assess this solution to see if the output is what you require.

Many to Many with Custom Objects 4 and up

Hello,
Pls. I need to define a new CO4 that will have a many to many relationship with Contact.
From OD help pg.775 I understand that I should use another CO (f.ex. CO5) to be the intersection. Help file indicates how to rename the objects...and put them in the related info. section... but I don´t know what FIELDS (if any) I should define in the intersection CO5.
Pls. Anyone could help ?
Txs. a lot.
Antonio

Yes. You have to define them in CO5 Layout.
You should see Name, Contact and Custom Object 04 (you may have renamed it). Not the Id field.
Then when you add THE CO5 layout to Contact Related section, you can add new association between Contact and CO4.
Don't forgot to enable the Access Profiles in Contact, CO4 and CO5.

Error when trying to create custom object

Hi,
The error below occurs when I am trying to create a new form that was created using the customer object 1 form.
No language independent code exists for value 'English - United States' and type 'OCC_CUST_ZOBJ_1_LOV_3' with language 'ENU' in table 'S_LST_OF_VAL'.(SBL-DAT-00510)
Has anyone seen this before?
thanks

David, I would recommend contacting On Demand customer care.
