Decmal data in outline fields

Fellow Forte' users,
I am displaying decimal data in an outline field and want to do so to 4
decimal places. The default in the outline field is 2 decimal places.
Setting the scale of the decimal data attribute in the outline field display
node init method doesn't work.
The only way I can get 4 displayed is to use a TextData in the outline field
and format the decimal into the TextData.
Does anyone know a better, more direct way to do this?

Hi Virendra,
Thanks for the support, as per the guidance given by you i was able to link the desired field (E.g. Vendor Code) to one of the WBS Element User Field using WBS_USER_FIELDS_F4 BAdi. Further to this I have following requirements.
1. Can I also appear the field description in front of the User Field (E.g. Name of the Vendor)
2. Can I validate whether a User have entered a valid input to the User Field (i.e. Existing Vendor in the Vendor Master)
3. Can I include a search window to search input values.
Very much appreciate your help,
Dileepa.

Decimal data in outline fields

I have an Express-generated window with a nested outline field. The
decimal data being displayed (Custom DecimalDomain with
DecimalNullable datatype) is formatting in E-notation with values >=
1,000,000. When I change the outline field to an array field the
same number displays properly.
I also changed the domain type to TextDomain and it displayed
properly but is not suitable for our complex arithmetic operations.
Can any tell me why outline fields for decimal types displays in
E-notation and how to combat this problem? Thanks. Rich.

Hi,
Go to SPRO>SAP Netweaver >General Settings> Check Units of Measurement, then click on "Units of Measure" (T.Code: CUNI) and Select your Unit of Measurement and go to details put number 4 "Decimal Places" field (you can put 0 to 14 decimal places.

Re: Tree Lines on an Outline Field

Actually, you can use the outline field in Forte R2 to mimic what you're
trying to do. True tree and list-view widgets are fully supported (quite
nicely, btw) in R3.
Basically, set up your subclass of displayNode to have an image data
attribute that is displayed on the widget. Then, create a few stock
tree-like bitmaps (like a vertical line, a vertical line with a horizontal
line, etc.). As the user expands and contracts the nodes in the outline
view, dynamically change the bimtap accordingly.
Hope this helps...

Does anyone know if Forte can put the tree/branch lines on the hierarchical
structure of an outline field? I can get the outline/hierarchical structure
to display and work fine, but without the lines showing how nodes relate,
its hard to read.
Thanks.Wait for Release 3.

Loading Data Using Outline Load Utility - Error

Trying to load some data using Outline Load Utility. I followed the Oracle documentation on this and Under the Administration -> Manage Data Load area I defined Accounts as data load dimension, and period as driver dimension. I then added Jan - Feb as driver members. I wanted to load data for Jan. My data header looks like this:
Accounts,Jan,Point-of-View,Data Load Cube Name
acct1, 768, "2010, Ver1, Actuals, entity1, etc" Plan1
The command i typed is this:
C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\Planning\planning1>outlineload /A:Plan1 /U:Admin /M /I:C:\MockData2.txt /D:Accounts /L:C:\dataload.log /X:c:\dataload.exc
I get the following errors:
[Mon Nov 22 11:03:02 CST 2010] Unrecognized column header value "Jan".
[Mon Nov 22 11:03:02 CST 2010] Unrecognized column header value "Point-of-View".

This is version 11.1.2. What am I doing wrong here? I also find it interesting that the command for data load and metadata load is the same as per oracle docs. I guess Planning knows if we're trying to load data or metadata based on the CSV file header?

I don't usually bother with loading data using the outline load utility but as a test on 11.1.2 using the planning sample application I gave it a quick go.
In planning, went to Administration > Data Load Settings > Picked Account as the data load dimension, Period as the driver dimension and selected Jan as a member
I created a file :-
Account,Jan,Point-of-View,Data Load Cube Name
TestMember,100,"Local,E05,Actual,NoSegment,Working,FY11",Consol
And used the following command line from the directory with the planning utilities
OutlineLoad /A:plansamp /U:admin /M /N /I:F:/temp/dload.csv /D:Account /L:F:/temp/outlineLoad.log /X:F:/temp/outlineLoad.exc
The log produced :-

Need Help..!! Loading Data Using Outline Load Utility - No Data

Hi All,
I've tried to load data using Outline Load Utility but the data is not loaded into my Essbase.
Here are the step what I've done :
1. In planning, Administration > Data Load Settings
- Entity as the data load dimension,
- Account as the driver dimension and selected Rental, test_desc as the member
2. The .csv file

TLT, 100, 100, "FY11,Plan,Working,No Product,No Condition Type,No Vehicle Type,No Term Period,No Term,No Movement, Local, Apr", Retail
3. Run the Outline Load through cmd
E:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\Planning\planning1>OutlineLoad /A:PLNDEV /U:xyz /M /N /I:E:/testload.csv /D:Entity /L:E:/OutlineLogs /X:E:/outlineLoad.exc

Do I miss something in my step above..??
Please advise.

Hi John,
thanks for reply..
I'm not check the essbase log yet..
From the OutlineLogs (Planning Outline load process finished (with no data load as specified (/N)). 1 data record was read, 1 data record was processed, 1 was accepted, 0 were rejected.), it doesn't mean the data successfully loaded, isn't it...??
Thanks.

Outline Field

Dear All ,
In our application we need to diaplay a heirarichical structure .The
herarcical structure for the moment has only 4 levels.
We are using an outline field to display this structure.
1) Our requirements are.
a) We should not have any restrictions on number of levels.
b) When we double click on the root node it should load the data
for the entire tree and display all the nodes.
c) We should be able to show more than one image in each
display node.
requirement a) and c) are not a problem
but the rquirement b) is problem , because sometimes we will have more
than 6000 leaf nodes and each node might app represent a data of 300 bytes.
So app we will have 20 mb of data loaded on the cleint. Since most of the
client machine in the production environment is 32 mb , it runs out of
memory.
When user expands each level , each level appx has data ranging
form 10-4000 nodes, the max range might grow up in future.
Could you suggest me the best possible ways of implemention of handling
massive data display with acceptable performance.
Thank you in advance

Data carrier & application field are not getting displayed in CV04N

Hi Guru's
In TCode : CV04N, data carrier & application field are not getting displayed.
While i compare with my IDES system, data carrier & application fields are getting displayed in CV04N.
Let me know is there any configuration that has been missed out.
Regards
Bhanu

Hi Bhanu,
Please note that the fields 'Data carrier' & 'Application field' are visible only if no document type is entered.
Suppose you enter a document type and press ENTER then these fields disappear. This is because the field 'Application' was designed when only the storage is archive, vault or SAP-SYSTEM was possible and the number of added originals was limited.
Currently DMS allows storage of originals on Content Server and there is no limit on the number of added originals, the system behavior was changed due to performance reasons. To avoid performance problems if you search for a document with a lot of originals attached this field gets invisible if you enter a document type which uses the KPRO storage.

How to extract data from the fields present in two or three tables

Hi Experts,
I have a scenario where i have to extract data from the fields of different tables. e.g. let there 2 tables which have some number of fields . I want the data of 3 fields each from these 2 tables. How can i get that??
Sam

Hi
You can create view in tcode se11..
here you include all tables from which you want to fetch the data..
you need to give selection condition here
eg..
say select empname from table A, select empadd from table B.. where empno(from A)=empno(from B)
(note that you dont need to write queries like this.. i have just given u the example)
After creating the view you can create datasource in RSO2..

How do I post data in HTML fields

Hi.
I need to log onto a web server from LabVIEW 7.1. I have this working in VB, but I don't know how to use the Microsoft Web Browser ActiveX object (specifically how to find the types of some variants).
In VB, I'd do the following to post data into two fields and click a button:
WebBrowser1.Document.frames(1).loginform.UserName.Value = "username"
WebBrowser1.Document.frames(1).loginform.Password.Value = "password"
WebBrowser1.Document.frames(1).loginform.Item(2).Click
From the web browser object in LV I can navigate to the URL, and decode the Document variant which seems to be of type MSHTML.DispHTMLDocument. How do I proceed from here? How do I access the different frames, forms, data fields and buttons on the web page?
Since variants in LabVIEW carry type descriptors internally, it'd be nice to have some way to access this so I wouldn't have to guess what object prototype to convert the variant with.
Regards
Steen Schmidt
CLA and CTA. Worked with LabVIEW from 4.0 to 2010 and counting...

Hi Steen,
I was workin in an application of accessing frames, forms and then buttons in web pages in background...
In labview there was a problem in the MSHTMLDocument.frames functions and so will not be able to get the frames ..
but it is possible to access forms in a page directly...i have an eg for searchin in google..(i have attached the vi)
I need to know whether it is possible in VB to go to a particular frame in a page and then if the frame has a form i need to login in form in that frame...
Could you please share me the code in VB (for the same)..so that it would be helpful for me...and also is it possible to make dll in vb and use in other enviorment like VC++..

Problem with Refreshing the data bound text fields

Folks,
First of all, this a GREAT product and I am moving my apps from Eclipse to Studio Creator. I am very impessed with it so far.
I am gone through most tutorials, but can't help resolve the problem that I am having. I have a page, that lists all the users in a table. When you click on any user, it opens up another page that lists the detail of the specific user you have clicked on. This a typical use in most web applications, right?
In the user detail page, I open it in "Read" only mode, by setting the "setReadOnly" to true for all text field components. Then users can edit it by clicking "Edit" button. Edit button just changes the "setReadOnly" to false, to allow editing. After editing, they can hit the "Save" button to save the changes. In the save button, I call this code:
public void prerender() {
        try {
            userID=getSessionBean1().getUserID();
            getSessionBean1().getWeb_userRowSetUserDetail().setObject(1,userID);
            getWeb_userDataProviderUserDetail().refresh();
            info("prerender: Refresh called");
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            error("Error in userForm.prerender():"+ex.getMessage()+ex.getStackTrace());
            log("Error in userForm.prerender():", ex);
        setReadWrite();
public String btnSave_action() {
        try {
            getWeb_userDataProviderUserDetail().commitChanges();
            getWeb_userDataProviderUserDetail().refresh();
            info("Data Provider Refreshed in SAVE");
            _readOnly=true;
            form1.discardSubmittedValues("saveVForm");
            info("User Updated New:"+userID);
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            log("Error Description", ex);
        return null;
    public String btnEdit_action() {
        try {
            _readOnly=false;
            //info("User ID Edt="+getSessionBean1().getUserID());
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            error("Error in userForm.btnEdit_action:"+ex.getMessage()+ex.getStackTrace());
            log("Error in userForm.btnEdit_action():", ex);
        return null;
    private void setReadWrite(){
        // Set read-only to true or false for all text fiels
        this.btnEdit.setVisible(_readOnly);
        this.btnSave.setVisible(!_readOnly);
        this.user_id.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
        this.user_email_client.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
        this.user_email_office.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
        this.user_fname.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
        this.user_lname.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
        this.user_id.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
        this.user_password.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
        this.user_password_conf.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
        this.user_phone_cell.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
        this.user_phone_cell_aac.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
        this.user_phone_client.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
        this.user_phone_home.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
        this.user_phone_office.setReadOnly(_readOnly);
    }When the save button is clicked, the database is updated (as I can verify by looking directly into the database), but the data-bound text fields do not display the new value. YES, I am calling refresh() on data provider? I tried to call refresh in both "preRender()" and "Save" button action event, but that did not help either.
Please note that the save button also changes the "setReadOnly" back to TRUE for all text fields. That means, users view the page in Read-Only mode after saving. (They have to click on "Edit" button again to edit it). I discovered that if I do not set the text field components in "ReadOnly" mode, then they display the updated value of the fields. But if I change setReadOnly to TRUE, then they display the old values (before the save).
Any idea what I am doing wrong here?
Thanks

Here is my experience with it. I have three text
boxes to be filled out. They are part of a virtual
form with an add button as the submit. You can fill
out the 3 and add them and a node is added to a tree
component. When you click on a node in the tree
component (the submit to another virtual form that
the 3 buttons participate in) the text fields should
be loaded with the values that they where added with.Hard to tell from this explanation, but if the text fields do not participate in a virtual form, then they are not going to get updated when an action in the virtual form happens. Not sure this is your problem. Like I say, hard to tell from this explanation.
They will not display the values though...having
nothing to do with read only. If I disable them
before hand...they display the updated values. If I
set their value at the top or bottom of prerender,
they display the change...if I set the value in an if
conditional that is hit (I have checked many times)
in prerender, they will not display the values. If I
set them in the tree handler anywhere, they will not
display the values. This is very frustrating and is
wasting tons of my time...I simply want to load the
text fields based on the tree node that was
clicked...I have messed with this for hours and it
certainly does not work.Well, setting them in the tree handler won't work because the tree handler gets called in the page instance that handles the submit and not the page instance that renders the response.
Posting your prerender code might help. Also, your action handler.

Error by inserting data into a field of datatype LONG

Hi,
When inserting data into a field of datatype long in oracle8 database via SQL Plus or SQL worksheet there occurs the following error message: "field in data file exceeds the maximum length".
If I access to the database from a selve written program via odbc there is no problem when inserting the data by the same sql statement.
So what can I do?
Thanks in advance!

What does your SQL statement look like?

Error when trying to set a date type edit field

Hi all
I have an edit text field in a form which is bounded to a date type
database field using dbDataSource.
When i try to set the edit text field value with Today's date by code.
I recieve an error message that the value which
i'm trying to set is not legal. the error number is [131-183].
I use the following code to set the edit field:
If oEditText.Value.Trim = String.Empty Then
            Dim strDate As String
            Dim sboBob As SAPbobsCOM.SBObob =
             oCompany.GetBusinessObjec(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.BoBridge)
             rs = sboBob.Format_DateToString(Microsoft.VisualBasic.Today)
           strDate = rs.Fields.Item(0).Value.ToString().Trim()
Try
       oEditText.Value = strDate
Catch ex As Exception
    SBO_Application.MessageBox("error setting
current date: " & ex.Message)
End Try
End If
My question is how can i set the edit field with a valid value?

Hi!
When writing to EditText.Value you must always use the B1 "DB-Format" as String.
The following examples are assuming (it's a must!) that the EditText-Fields are bound to a corrosponding DataSource (Type Date, Price etc...)
MyDateEditTxt.Value="20080207"
MyPriceEditTxt.Value="1341.79"
The best of it: It's Windows and SBO-GUI-Language independent.
EditText.String must always be written with the format of the actual Language of the SBO-GUI, which can be changed by the user....
You may also have a look at my statements regarding these problems near the end of this thread:

Problem in assigning date valje to field

Hi,
I have a problem in assignning date value to field.
i am retriving date from a table and assigning it to a field which is date type in the form.. but it is not reflecting..
Error: form Bad Value..
how to assign the date values in the form..
Mahi

Hi mahendra,
I think the Bad Value Error Occurs only if the databound datasource in the form must have different data type...
oForm.DataSources.UserDataSources.Add("eDate", SAPbouiCOM.BoDataType.dt_DATE, 10);
SAPbouiCOM.EditText oEdit;
oEdit = oForm.Items.Item("1").Specific;
oEdit.DataBind.SetBound(true, "", eDate);
