Database Changes and Field Mappings

My company has updated our databases from Oracle to SQL. I'm now having issues with Field Mappings because some of the old tables are not the same in the new database.
For example:
Old Table: CM3RM1, Old Field: FH_OUTAGE_REQUIRED
is now
New Table: CM3RM2, Old Field: FH_OUTAGE_REQUIRED
When I try to map the fields in the Map Fields dialog box in Crystal Reports 2008, it looks for the same table name in the new database so I'm not able to map all of the fields.
Any suggestions on how to get the Map Fields dialog box to display multiple tables or a different method to convert these tables.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

I have gone through this proccess several times due to database upgrades and the worst was oracle to sql. Database mapping did not work for that one at all.
I know you do not want to hear this but I added all the new tables to the report, replaced the fields & modified formulas, and then remove the old tables from the report, and in some cases I re-wrote the report from scratch.

How to link Azure database tables and fields to VS2012 C++ entry form

We are using Visual Studio 2012 C++ and have successfully connected to the database on Azure, but do no know how to associate the database tables and fields with the C++ application data entry forms. Can anyone help? Thanks

Hello Roxanne,
You could use Entity framework to map classes to Azure tables. Please refer http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/363040/An-Introduction-to-Entity-Framework-for-Absolute-B to

A way to find out tables and fields referred by a transaction

I want to know whether there is a way to find all the database tables and fields referred by a transaction. I know that we can do F1 on each field to get the reference table and the fielname but its taking a lot of time for me..I need to know if there is any program or a way(some tool) to find out the tables and fieldnames for a transaction. Any help would be greatly appreciated..
Thanks,
Mohsin.

Hi Mohsin,
As suggested SQL Trace is the best Option.
Say inorder to Find the field inf. you can use SQL trace (ST05) .
Steps for the same:
1) Go to ST05 --> Activate Trace.
2) Run the trasaction , make some changes to the field for which you want to have the table name then SAVE.
3) Go again to ST05 ---> Deactive Trace
4) List trace
5) Then search for the chaged value which u had done on that transaction.
6) With this you will be able to see the table name in the Obj. name column.
**How can we find out what tables are being referred for what field???.
For this , one way which i follow other then F1 is :
i follow Steps 2 and step 5 which help me to locate those values only for which i am looking for the table only as with the changed value in transaction which u had done in step 2 and after saving it it will go to the DB table and on searching the same changed value in the trace give u the quick link of the table .
It helped me many times and saves time by doing linke this otherwise u have got all the options to as suggested by the FORUM .
Cheers

Verify Database changes field format

I am converting a report written using CR 6 to CR 10. The report gets data from a SQL Server 2000 stored procedure through ODBC. The stored procedure has changed adding an input parameter only, the resultset of the SP has not changed. When i attempt to update the report for the SP using Verify Database, when completed, the format of the data fields on the report are changed from character to numeric. I do not want the format to change and cannot understand why it is changing.

Hello, the format can change because CR is changing the format because likely the first field returned is a number and the driver is not reporting it properly.
There are no updates available for CR 10 so try using OLE DB using the Set Location option.

How to create multi axis graph with 2 on change of fields and 2 values

Hi all,
i am working for a Semi conductor company and I have been madated to evaluate Crystal report 2008 in order to include it in our legacy software.
So I have tested the soft and it seems to fit to our need.
But I have a question...
Here is a scenario i want to create in crystal but I have an error message..
Can you please tell me if twant I want to achieve is feasisible...and if so how ?
Thank you
I would like to create a percent bar chart that contains 2 on change of fields and 2 show values.
The idea behind in then to have a mutli axis chart in order to print as a line the second values.
So the first values will be my bar chart in percentage and the second value will be a sum.
Hope my description is cleat...
Thank's in advance for your support...
Have a good day

There are different ways to achieve that. The simplest i could recall is to have 2 different charts, 1st bar chart and 2nd a line chart, lay one over the other and enable the transparency on the chart which on Top ( say Line ). also, crystal will allow you to control axes etc and make them transparent..

Using characteristic both in fields tobe changed and condition.

Hi All,
In my fox formula, I have defined for example Fiscal year/period as the 'field to be changed' and defined in the FOX formula code.
But I also need to use it as a variable in the 'condition' of Planning function for that FOX formula.
Is it possible, and if so, how can I have a characteristic in both my 'Condition' and 'field to be changed' in my planning function for the FOX formula.
Thanks everyone.

Hi,
I already have a User-Specific variable for Fiscal year/period that I would like to use in the FOX code to form the basis of my data selection condition.
My FOX code looks like this:
DATA FRVERSION TYPE 0VERSION.
DATA TOVERSION TYPE 0VERSION.
DATA FRVTYP TYPE 0VTYPE.
DATA TOVTYP TYPE 0VTYPE.
DATA QTR TYPE 0CALQUARTER.
DATA ENTRIES TYPE I.
DATA COUNT TYPE I.
DATA AMOUNT_EXISTS TYPE I.
DATA RESULTS TYPE KEYFIGURE_NAME.
FRVERSION = VARV ( ZBPSUS01 ).
TOVERSION = VARV ( ZBPSUS02 ).
FRVTYP = VARV ( ZBPSUS03 ).
TOVTYP = VARV ( ZBPSUS04 ).
FOREACH RESULTS.
AMOUNT_EXISTS = 0.
 FOREACH QTR.
 IF {RESULTS,QTR,TOVERSION,TOVTYP} <> 0.
 AMOUNT_EXISTS = 1.
 EXIT.
 ENDIF.
 ENDFOR.
IF AMOUNT_EXISTS <> 1.
 FOREACH QTR.
 {RESULTS,QTR,TOVERSION,TOVTYP} =
{RESULTS,QTR,FRVERSION,FRVTYP}.
 ENDFOR.
ENDIF.
How can I incorporate the Fiscal year/period condition in here.
In my Fiscal year/period variable I have defined the single values of 001/2006, 002/2006,003/2006.
So I want the funnction to only read the data in these periods and use them as the basis of the copy. I do NOT want it to copy over any other periods.
Or do I need to use the 'Do' statement to make it loop over the variables?
Or will the 'Foreach' statement be fine?
Thanks

How do I change custom field description and name on the project fields PDP

I'm creating a custom PDP for a workflow process and I need to add the folloiwng fields "Project Name" and "Description"
When I try to create Project Name custom field under server settings I get the following message "The custom field name cannot match the name of any intrinsic fields."
So I went to the PDP web part Project fields and I found a field named " Project Name". I added it to the Proejct Fields web part, but it displays as "Name".
How can I change this field that's out of the box? I don't see "Project Name" and "Description" under server settings > Enterprise Custom Fields and Lookup Tables to modify them.
Thank you

Hi there,
Project Name & description fields are internal fields in project server which you cannot view in Enterprise custom fields in PWA. You will not be able to create with the similar name. There is no way to change these fields as far as I know.
I would suggest to have the new fields name something like Project_Name/ ProjName or Project_Description/ProjDescription .
Hope that helps.Thanks, Amit Khare |EPM Consultant| Blog: http://amitkhare82.blogspot.com http://www.linkedin.com/in/amitkhare82

Standard field label change and drop down

Hello,
I need to change a text field label and create a drop down for a input down field. The problem is that they are standard fields in sap. I am not sure if by code i can do this change. Because I tried doing the change through cmod to change the field text and append for the drop down in the domain, but for some reason it did not work. Any help would greatly appreciated.

What is the program?
You can change the field text in CMOD but you cannot do a dropdown in CMOD.
Dropdown is for the screen element and you need to change the screen for this and need to populate the field. Find if there is any user exit for your requirement.

MS Project to detect task level changes and record a date modified in custom field

I need to know the date and time that a task field (mainly task name, start, finish) has been changed.
I found this topic within EE and it works great but...
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Software/Office_Productivity/Project_Management/Q_27879745.html#a38636192
If (for instance) you change a duration which affects predecessors and only the task that you changed gets a date/time stamp.

John,
Thanks for the help.
I have posted this to EE and received one response from the guy who answered the question in the link I provided. Here is his recommendation to a similar question (underlined at end) and it works great but does not work for changes to successors.
Only the record that receives the actual change gets stamped.
I did think of the change highlighting but not sure how to take advantage of it. I need to know the order that the changes occur in a session as well as the time of day. That is why I thought a time date/time stamp would work for both.
Is there and event for rescheduling of successors?
What is project looking at to see changes for the "change highlighting" format. Is it an event that can be captured.
Hi,
the pointer to events above is correct. This is what you need to do:
1. in Microsoft Project open the VBA Editor (Alt+F11). On the left side you'll see the "ProjectExplorer". Expand the "ProjectGlobal (Global.MPT)" piece.
2. In the first section of "ProjectGlobal(Global.MPT)
" you see "Microsoft Project Objects" and below that "ThisProject(Global.MPT)".Doubleclick it and insert the text between
the --- into the Editor window on the right.
Sub Project_Open(ByVal pj As Project)
Call modEvents.StartEvents
End Sub
3. In the second section "Modules" add a new MODULE. Name it "modEvents". Copy the text between the --- into the new module:
Private oMSPEvents As clsEvents
Sub StartEvents()
Set oMSPEvents = New clsEvents
End Sub
4. In the third section "Class Module" insert a NEW CLASS MODULE. Name it "clsEvents". Doubleclick and insert the text between the --- into it
Private WithEvents MyMSPApplication As Application
Private Sub Class_Initialize()
Set MyMSPApplication = Application
End Sub
Private Sub MyMSPApplication_ProjectBeforeTaskChange(ByValtsk
As Task, ByVal Field As PjField, ByVal NewVal As Variant, Cancel As Boolean)
tsk.Date1 = Now()
End Sub
Sounds like hell? Yes, but that's how it works: the first part is always executed when you open a project -> the "StartEvents" initialises the new class and tells Microsoft Project to use events (which
is does NOT in the default). The last part "watches" all changes and whenever you change something it sets the Date1 field to the current date and time.
Please let me know if you need any help!

Reviving this thread again...
I am using DCN feature to build a middle-tier cache. I know oracle has problem sending physical rowid in case of 'Index Organized Table', however, in normal table also its not able to send proper rowid.
e.g, I have 2 records in Table A with rowid AAARIUAAGAAAV/uABw and AAARIUAAGAAAV/pAAX.
I have updated both the records. Strangely for the first record, oracle is sending INVALID rowid, although for the second record its sending the valid one.
Following is the output:
Row 1: (Wrong rowid being sent, AAARIUAAGAAAV/uABw is replaced with AAARIUAAGAAAXDCAAr)
Connection information : local=localhost.localdomain/127.0.0.1:47633, remote=localhost.localdomain/127.0.0.1:2278
Registration ID : 2102
Notification version : 1
Event type : OBJCHANGE
Database name : <sid>
Table Change Description (length=1)
 operation=[UPDATE], tableName=<table_name>, objectNumber=70164
 Row Change Description (length=1):
 ROW: operation=UPDATE, ROWID=AAARIUAAGAAAXDCAAr
Row 2: (Right rowid being sent, AAARIUAAGAAAV/pAAX)
Connection information : local=localhost.localdomain/127.0.0.1:47633, remote=localhost.localdomain/127.0.0.1:2278

Any idea ?

Change the field description of a field in MM01,MM02, and MM03 Transaction

Hi Experts,
I had a requirement to change the field description of a field in MM01,MM02, and MM03. I know how to change the description of field in CMOD. In my requirement they need this new description only in the above mention transaction. So please let me know how we can do this?
Regards,
Ram

Hi you can do this by SPRO transaction. Here you can copy the subscreen where you want the description of the field changed. And in the custom subscreen go to the Element list- >Texts I/O templates , Here you can change the description. After all this the customized subscreen is assigned in the proper sequence. The step by step process is below:
Step 1:
Click on the button u2018SAP Reference IMGu2019. Then follow the path Logistics-General -> Material Master -> Configuring the Material Master. When this particular node is expanded, a drop down list of 7 different executable options appears.
Step 2: Execute the option u2018Create Program for Customized Subscreensu2019
Step 3: Copy the screens required to the custom function group.
Step 4: In transaction SPRO, execute the option u2018Define Structure of Data Screens for each Screen sequenceu2019.
Step 5: Now in transaction SPRO execute the option Assign Screen sequences to User/ Material Type/ Transaction/ Industry Sector.
