Date Format in MSS iviews

Hi,
We have EP6 SP11 with the Manager Self Service Business Package. The dates on our MSS iviews are currently showing as MM/DD/YYYY. I have set the default country of the portal to GB but the language setting in the user profile is overriding this. If I set the language to "English (United Kingdom)" the date shows correctly as DD/MM/YYYY. But if I just set it to "English", the dates show as MM/DD/YYYY.
However, we are using an R/3 system as our user store, so the language setting is coming from there (SU01 > Communication section) and there is no option for "English (United Kingdom)", only "English". How can I change the "English" option to default to en_gb rather than en_us? Or can I map the English setting in R/3 to English (United Kingdom) setting in the portal? Or is there something else I can do?
Any help greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Jane

Hi Jane,
Try to change the language settings of the Internet Explorer and see if it is not being over-ridden from the user profile.

Mohan

IView Date Format

Hi,
Is there anyway of changing the format of the date in a pre-delivered iView? Is there a setting on the portal?
We have a standard of having our date in the format yyyy/mm/dd. Some of the iViews have the format of mm/dd/yyyy. I want to change that... Is this possible? Oh yeah, this is for EP 5.0 5.0
TIA!!

Hello Kevin,
have you tried the search function of the SDN Forums? With the string "date AND format AND portal" you will find this thread:

Displaying a form in an iView & displaying data in .pdf format in an iView

Hi,
1)We want to show some details in an iView pertaining to the person who has logged into the portal. We are calling a function module (when a user clicks on a workset in the portal) and passing some parameters to it. The function module pulls the data from the tables and generates a sap script which displays the data in a SAP Script Form.
Now our problem is how do we display the form in the iView?

MSS iView Errors

Hi all. We're getting a Portal Runtime error in our production environment when trying to view certain MSS iviews, such as Absence Days, Personal Data, Detail View Attendances, Company Properties, Emergency Contact, etc.
The error looks something like,
Portal runtime error.
An exception occurred while processing your request. Send the exception ID to your portal administrator.
Exception ID: 09:28_02/04/09_0155_2490650
Refer to the log file for details about this exception.

All MSS iViews, working and not working, are inheriting from the same top level folder. In their permissions is the Everyone group (Administrator=none, End User=checked) and the super_adminstrator_role (Administrator=owner, End User=checked).
Any ideas on what our problem is?

You need to check the permissions of that MSS Iview
Go to the path System Administration>Permisssions,
Go to "pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/srvconfig"
Check whether you have valid permission or not.
Also check the below thread that will help you.

JCo error while viewing MSS iviews

Dear SDN Community,
When I am trying to view any of the MSS iViews like photo, orgchart, personal data, I get the following error message.
com.sap.mw.jco.JCO$Exception: (102) RFC_ERROR_COMMUNICATION: Connect to message server host failed Connect_PM TYPE=B MSHOST=sapdev GROUP=ED0LG R3NAME=ED0 MSSERV=sapmsED0 PCS=1 ERROR service 'sapmsED0' unknown TIME Fri Aug 03 11:59:07 2007 RELEASE 700 COMPONENT NI (network interface) VERSION 38 RC -3 MODULE nixxhsl.cpp LINE 776 DETAIL NiHsLGetServNo: service name cached as unknown COUNTER 4
The JCo connections SAP_R3_HumanResources and SAP_R3_HumanResources_Metadata are tested successfully and I see the gree light for these 2 in the WebDynpro console.
Can you please advice me here.
Thanks,
Vivek.

Vivek,
open the services file of your portal server box. This file will be in the location C:\WINDOWS or WINNT\system32\drivers\etc folder. In that enter an entry as below:
sapmsED0 36XX/tcp
where XX is the system no of your R/3 system. So if R/3 system number is 30 the line would be sapmsED0 3630/tcp.
Save the file and then try accessing iView again. This error message would be going off.
Regards,
Shubhadip

Date format is changing in presentation variable

Hello,
I have a problem with date stored in presentation variable.
I have simple prompt with calendar field (default date value is setted from repository or session variable to current date). Selected date is stored in PP_DATE presentation variable.
I have simple report with title to show the content of variable PP_DATE.
And now the problem.
When I navigate to dashboard page with this report I will get date from PP_DATE variable in some format (there is difference when I use repository or session variable). After I will push the start button I will get another date format from PP_DATE variable.
Screenshots are stored and described in this PDF: [PDF with screenshots|https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0B2LOPOBteIShMDRmYTJlYTItNmYyZC00ODdkLWE5NjktNzI1N2RlNWMwZjBk]
There is difference between session and repository variable. When I use repository variable I will get 'TIMESTAMP .......' from PP_DATE variable, which is the default initializer in repository variable manager. I tried to delete default initializer, but I is automatically added after saving changes.
When is the default value of prompt setted from session variable I will get another format of date from PP_DATE variable which refers to DATE_TIME_DISPLAY_FORMAT = "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mi:ss.mss" (from NQSConfig.ini). I have changed DATE_TIME_DISPLAY_FORMAT from standard value "yyyy/mm/dd hh:mi:ss" to "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mi:ss.mss" because I am reading some data from excel, where are dates stored in MSSQL format. But this is not the reason of my problem. I have the same problem also with standard DATE_TIME_DISPLAY_FORMAT.
The result of this strange behaviour is that I am getting errors when I am doing some calculations (for example TimeStampDiff) with PP_DATE variable. I am getting error when I am navigating to dashboard page. Everything is ok after I will push the start button.
Do you have some tips?
Thank you

Hey,
you are talking about so many pieces here seems..
first letz break down your issues list..
1. error, this is because of default date(using repository variable) used in prompt..
2. using presentation variables in timetampdiff functions..
3. showing variable in title list..
we'll go through each issue..
because, its' messed up..I think that everywhere is the same problem. So solving issue number 1 will solve my other problems.
"1. error, this is because of default date(using repository variable) used in prompt.. "
I want to use date prompt with default date value (from repository or session variable) and then use pp_date presentation variable from this prompt to filter my results.
I would like to use repos. or session variables, I dont want to write some select to fill default date value in each prompt.
I tried to change one date in initialization block from "trunc(sysdate, 'DD')" to "to_char(sysdate, 'YYYY-MM-DD')" because it is the same format as DATE_DISPLAY_FORMAT = "yyyy-mm-dd" in NQSConfig.ini
And now it seems to be working now.
I can use repository var. as default date value in my prompt and use date variable pp_date to filter my results. Report return result after navigation on it and after pushing Go button.
Can you confirm me that date format in initialization block must be the same as DATE_DISPLAY_FORMAT = "yyyy-mm-dd" in NQSConfig.ini?

Changing Date format from MM/DD/YYYY to DD/MM/YYYY

Hello all,
          We have upgraded our portal system from EP 6.0 to EP 7.0 . Before upgrade the portal date format was in DD/MM/YYYY format but after upgrade it has changed to MM/DD/YYYY.
          We changed the request.mandatoryCountry and Request.mandatoryLanguage parameters as GB and EN respectively .
After this change the standard portal iview start showing date in DD/MM/YYYY format but custom web dynpro applications are still displaying date in MM/DD/YYYY format.
        Please suggest how can we change the date format for custom dynpro applications too.
Regards,
Ganesh

Ganesh,
You might find [this|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/f4/d95664da179b4db731e21c2e470b72/frameset.htm] link helpful in understanding how the locale is determined for a user who logs into the portal.
Similar discussions are on the following threads
1 - date format
2 - internationalization problem - default language of wd in portal
A snippet from the above thread,
1) Language indicator of the user (Example: Language not set in portal)
2) Language preference of the browser (Example: fr - Resource doesn't exists)
3) Language indicator of the Web Dynpro Application
4) Language preference of the system
5) Language preference of the JVM
Hope it helps.
Good Luck!!!

Custom ESS/MSS iview question

Hi all,
The requirement is to create a custom ESS/MSS iview under one of the worksets in portal. For example I am creating a custom Beneifts iview under the Benefits workset.
I have to get the user personnel number to get the corresponding data in the WD application that i am creating. Where do i get this value from?
My assumption: It is stored as a global variable in a different WD component and i have to reuse the component in my new application to get the corresponding variable
I have tried my best to make the question clear. let me know if this needs to be more clear.
Thanks in advance,
Reddy

Hi Reddy,
There might be some portal events raised when a employee is selected. You should subscribe this event in your custom component and work on.
