Date in template

I want to create a "letter" template so that if I create a new letter today using the template it has today's date in it. If I subsequently open the letter I've written I don't want the date to be automatically updated.
If I set the date in the template to "not automatically update", then the letter is created with the date I wrote the template. If I set the date in the template to be automatically updated, then the date in my letter is also set to be automatically updated.
I can alter it by hand, but to do so for every single letter rather defeats the object of having a template. Is there a way to achieve what I want automatically?

today's date in it. If I subsequently open the letter
I've written I don't want the date to be
automatically updated.
I adore pages, and use it regularly. I have also been hungering for the feature you mentioned.
I FULLY expected it in to be added the iWork '06 update... like a check box (in the "Insert Date and Time" panel) that said something like: "Automatically update the date and time only when creating a new document from a template"
I was shocked when it was no where to be found. It seems like such a simple, and widely desired feature. I'm very surprised it was overlooked. If anyone has direct contact with the Pages team, PLEASE stress the importance of this BASIC functionality.

I am using the big date calendar template and when I submit it to apple for printing I lose the name of two months. These names are not text boxes. I see the names when I send it in but something happens during the transmission to apple. It was suggested

I am using the big date calendar template in iPhoto. I am on Lion 10.7.2, macbook air. The names of the months are on each calendar page but something happens when I send the data to Apple. The names are part of the template. They are not text boxes. I lose two names on the calendar after it is sent to Apple. Apple suggested I make a pdf file of my calendar before sending it in and check to make sure every name shows. I did this with a calendar I just sent in. The calendar was correct. All names of the months were showing. After sending the data two month names disappeard because when it arrived by mail, it was incorrect. Apple looked at my calendar via a pdf file and it was incorrect. This is second time this has happened. I called Apple and they had me delete several folders in the Library folder, some preferences and do a complete reinstall of iPhoto. I have not yet remade the defective calendar. I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem?
kathy

Control-click on the background of the view all pages window and select "Preview Calendar" from the contextual menu.
You can also save the pdf as a file to compare to the printed calendar. If the two names are visible in the pdf file then the printed copy should show them. Contact Apple for a refund. Apple Print Products - Apple Store (U.S.)

How To Make Shapes Change Colors When Clicking on them. Example Sheet Sales Data.xlsx template with Excel 2013

My question is related to the Sales Data.xlsx template that comes with Excel 2013
IN this workbook is a sheet named Sales Data. It has, 3 shapes. One each for each of the tab sheets in the workbook. When I click on the 'Sales Report' shape it selects the sales report tab. When you do this the shape changes color and the 'Sales Data' shape
also changes color.
However I'm unable to figure out how the colors are changing.
I don't see any macros in the workbook/worksheet. Nor do I see any code for worksheet events. I don't see any modules in VBA either. I think what is happening is that there are 2 shapes. When you click on one, the one shape goes to the background and the
other one comes to the foreground.
I'm no sure how it's doing that.
Can someone look at this template, Sales Data.xlsx that comes with Excel and explain how this functionality works?
Thank You
Keith Aul

The shapes are exactly as I suspected, each of 3 sheets has 3 'navigation' shapes. The shape with the same name as the sheet has no hyperlink and is coloured differently to indicate it refers to the active sheet. The other two have hyperlinks linked to respective
sheets. 3x3 shapes, 9 in total, none of them ever change colour!
It's logical though not necessary to name each shape same as the sheet it links to, but they'd work just as well with their original default names.
For aesthetics, the shapes that refer to own sheet have a horizontal line on top, actually two shapes as a group.
If still confused copy each set of 3 shapes to a 4th sheet, or open two new windows so you can see all three sheets at the same time.

Data Extraction template

Hi,
In my current project there is a requirement for Data migration from legacy, So can anyone please help me on providing the data extraction template for Vendor and customer open line items, G/L balances and for Bank directory,
Your help in this regard is highly appreciated
Thanks
Rajesh. R

Hi Rajesh,
When you extract the data from the legacy system the point that you should keep in mind are,
1. How the organisation structure in legacy system is mapped in SAP system. Becuase the data upload into sap should also happen in the way the reports are expected from SAP.
There is no standard layout which is used while extracting, you need to make sure that you extract all the necessary information from legacy system which is need to be uploaded in SAP.
I can give you an example of the field that you may include in the layout of extraction
Vendor account, Document data, Posting date, Document Type, Company code, Amount in Document currency, and local currency, etc
2. Please keep in mind that there are some GL account which will be maintained in SAP as open item basis. Therefore your extraction should also possibly happen each transaction wise.
3. There are certain GL which will be maintained in foreign currency, line bank GL which are in foreign currency. In such cases you need to extract the balance in foreign currency.
My suggestion to you will be thinking through the precess first and then go ahead with the extraction.
Hope this helps
Regards
Paul

Data Mapping Templates for NON-RTA Systems

Hi all,
I'm designing n extractor for my NON-SAP System.
I've been reading the Appendix B: Data Mapping Templates for Non-RTA Systems from Configuration Guide - SAP GRC AC 5.3.
I have a couple of questions regarding the size of two fields in table ACTION PERMISSION OBJECTS TEMPLATE
Is correct the size that the documents says about fields:
ACTION (document says it's 20 but in other tables is 50)
PERMISSION (document says it's 10 but in other tables is 100
ACTVT (document says it's 10but in other tables is 50)
Thank you in advanced.

Hi Luis,
Yeah i will follow the recomendations but i'm updating some files to RAR and i've seen another kind of inconsistency such as in the table User File Template. Recomendation says that both FNAME field and LNAME field are 50 size each one but in my case i can update a FNAME 51 size and a LNAME 49, i mean between FNAME and LNAME it's 100 size.
Cheers.

Validation rules applied to data migration templates at import

Hi everyone!
First post here for me, so please bear with me if I missed something.
My company has just started the initial implementation of ByDesign. We come from a set of disparate and partially home-grown systems that we outgrew a few years ago.
As part of this initial phase, we are basically re-creating the data on customers, suppliers, etc. since none of our existing systems makes a good source, unfortunately. We will be using the XML templates provided by ByDesign itself to import the relevant data.
It has become clear that ByDesign applies validation rules on fields like postal codes (zip codes), states (for some countries), and other fields.
It would be really helpful if we could get access to the rules that are applied at import time, so that we can format the data correctly in advance, rather than having to play "trial and error" at import time. For example, if you import address data, the first time it finds a postal code in the Netherlands which is formatted as "1234AB", it will tell you that "there needs to a space in the 5th position, because it expects the format to be "1234 AB". At that point, you stop the import, go back to the template to fix all the Dutch postal codes, and try the import again, only to run into the next validation issue.
We work with a couple of very experienced German consultants to help us implement ByDesign, and I have put this question to them, but they are unaware of a documented set of validation rules for ByDesign. Which is why I ask the question here.
So just to be very celar on what we are looking for: the data validation/formatting rules that ByDesign enforces at the time the XML data migration templates are imported.
Any help would be appreciated!
Best regards,
Eelco

Hello Eelco,
welcome to the SAP ByDesign Community Network!
The checks performed on postal codes are country specific, and represent pretty much the information that you would find in places like e.g. the "Postal Codes" page in Wikipedia.
I recommend to start with small files of 50-100 records that are assembled of a representative set of different records, in order to collect the validation rules that need reactions based on your data in an efficient way. Only once you have caught these generic data issues, I would proceed to larger files.
Personnaly I prefer to capture such generic work items on my list, then fix the small sample file immediately by editing, and do an immediate resimulation of the entire file, so that I can drill deeper and collect more generic issues of my data sample. Only after a while when I have harvested all learnings that were in my sample file, I would then apply the collected learnings to my actual data and create a new file - still not too large, in order to use my time efficiently.
Best regards
Michael

External definition and used them as Data Type Templates

hi all
how to Develop external definition and used them as Data Type Templates .
Thank u
Swari

HI
External Definitions: If a definition of the message structure exists in wsdl, xsd, dtd formats, we can use it in the integration repository by importing it as an external definition.
External Definations:
An external definition enables you to import a local WSDL, XSD, or DTD file to the Integration Repository and specify which parts of the schema to extract as the description for a message. You can use these extracted message schema as:
Output or input messages in message interfaces
Source or target structures for message mappings
There is a series of standard schema for describing the message structure at runtime. WSDL (Web Service Description Language), XSD (XML Schema Definition Language), or DTDs (Document Type Definitions) are often used to describe message schema. If a description of the message structure already exists in one of the above formats, you can use it in the Integration Repository by importing it as an external definition rather than re-entering it manually using the data type editor.

Data load templates

Hi all,
Does anyone have any documentation regarding SAP data load templates?
Appreciated ur response,
Sowjanya.

Hi Sowjanya
It is still advisable to create Ur Own Data templates.
For That U need to record the Transaction.
Ex:-U want to Upload Data for IT0014.
Then Do the recording with putting data in IT0014.
Then System will automatically provide U what data it needs like.
PERNR SUBTY BEGDA ENDDA LGART BETRG
So the above format will be UR data template.
That means when U put data in the above format and suppply it to SAP Upload program it will fetch the data from the sequence and Upload in IT0014.
Data format is basically the sequence in which U put the data.
If U want to learn LSMW then Do Follow the link below.

Change Data Entry Template variable values using javascript

Content ServerIs there a way to change the Data Entry Template's text/Integer variable values using javascript?

I believe you're asking if you can change the value of a content item's property using Javascript (a content item is created from a data entry template, which defines the set of properties).
Unfortunately there is not a way to permanently change it in the content item, since Javascript is executed client-side rather than on the server. However, if you're just interested in how the value is displayed in the published HTML, you could modify the presentation template to store the property value into a Javascript variable and then manipulate it to be displayed in whatever manner you wish.

Hebrew calendar date in template - Pages 5.2.2 OSX 10.9.4

Hello all!
I was wondering if there is a way to create a template with an automated Hebrew Calander date in the header or footer.
I am desperately trying to find a way to do it for the last fortnight. Every help would be much appreciated!
Thanks
Avi

I just read in another thread that when you change the system's primary language the hebrew templates are visible so it might be the same here. I didn't try it as I don't like my whole system to be in hebrew just so I can add the auto date in hebrew once in a while.

Customized DATA DEFINATION,TEMPLATE FOR R12 WIRE PAYMENT

I have requirement to use lot of custom value in my R12 wire payment report.
I have done the following
1. i have creaed one procedure and registered it as concurrent program
2. created data definatin and map it wiht Concurrent program name
3. created RTF Template and mapped with data definaton.
4. when i submit concurrent prgoram , with parameter as payment batchid, this report is working fine and getting necessary result
5. when i submit using standard payment process, i am not getting only the hotcoded value in my template. but it didn't receive proper value from procedure.
my queries are
1)
Is my approach is correct?
2) Is there any other way to get custom value in standard WIRE PAYMENT METHOD
pl. reply to me at the earliest
REgards,
siva

Hi Siva
So when you run the program as part of the payment batch is your new program being called? If so, is it generating the data as expected?
If the above, then is your template being used?
Im guessing that the format program needs to be set up - Im not so familiar with R12 payments but it ought to be covered in the AP user guide.

How to calculate number of days between two date in Template design?

Hello guys
I have a situation where I have to create a template that returns data, and one of the thing of the existing report is that there is a column that is actually the number of days between start date and end date columns..
So in template, how would I be able to do the same? I have start date and end date columns on the template, now when I created another column using expression like end date - start date and preview the template, I am getting errors saying :
Caused by: oracle.xdo.parser.v2.XPathException: Cannot convert 03/31/2009 to number.

Hi
There is an extension function you can use, from the javadoc:
date_diff
public static long date_diff(java.lang.String format,
java.lang.String fromDate,
java.lang.String toDate,
java.lang.String locStr,
java.lang.String tzID)
Method to get the difference between two dates in the given locale. The dates need to be in "yyyy-MM-dd" format. This function supports only Gregorian calendar.
Parameters:
format - the format to which the difference is required; allowed formats are y (for Year), m(for month), w(for week), d(for day), h(for hour), mi(for minute), s(for seconds) and ms(for milliseconds)
fromDate - the first date
toDate - the second date
locStr - locale string -> lang-Territory
tzID - timezone ID ->http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/util/TimeZone.html
Returns:
the difference in dates in the desired format
For example
<?xdoxslt:date_diff(‘d’,’2009-09-14’, ‘2009-09-20’,’en-US’,1)?>
give a result of 6
You can substitute in columns for the dates, just remember the date format required.
Regards
Tim
