Dropdown list with custom All Values option

Hi,
We are running VC on 7.4 SP2. I have a dropdown list which gets its' values from a BW query. This works great except that I want to add a custom entry which selects all values.
In BW you would do this by setting the selection variable to "" as in nothing specified/empty. This is also the default setting in VC (you made no selection so you will get all results) but once you select something this can not be deselected.
So the idea is to add a custom entry All with value "" but apparently this gets send to BW as """" which is not a valid value. VC does not allow to use an empty value field.
So basically I am stuck here. Any of you found a solution to this problem?
regards,
Matthias

Hi Matthias,
I see your point. I could suggest two options:
1. In the dropdown input control, delete the value. Then press submit.
This works fine, only we don't get the empty value in the list.
2. To have the empty value in the list, like this:
Add to the entries of the list:
Then edit the mapping to the service to convert * into an empty string:
Thanks,
Udi

Dynamic select list with one static 'not_listed" option

Hi guys,
I want to create a dynamic select list with one static 'not_listed' option.
One possible alternative is to add the 'not_listed' record into database, but I really dont want to go that way unless there is no other way around.
Can anyone shed some lights on this?
Many thanks,
William

As usual : "It depends"...
If you have a foreign key defined on that field, Scott's reply won't work - unless you define '0 - Not listed' in the database. You can use selec 'not listed' d, to_number(null) r from dual though...
Another - more declarative way - is in the on 'Edit Page Item' page, in the 'List of Values' region set 'Display Null' to 'Yes' and 'Null Display Value' to ' - Not listed - '.

How to move iPhone contact list with custom ringtones to OS X server Contacts?

I have recently setup a new Mac Pro, Mid 2012, running Mavericks OS X Server. I was previously syncing through iTunes on Snow Leopard, 10.6...
Due to the changes in Mavericks WRT iTunes address book syncing, I want to setup Contacts in Server, as I do not want to use iCloud. I tried using the Address Book sync on my MacBook Pro, but that doesn't appear to save any custom ringtone data. I setup Contacts in Server & I moved the current address book to Mavericks, but dragging the contacts into the Server list in Contacts generates warnings, "Some contacts could not be copied to the server" and then sometimes starts duplicating the groups and contacts. The system log has some errors that seem related (system & user munged):

lsof is the standard tool for listing open files, although I'm not quite sure it'll do what you want.
It will list every open file used by every process on the machine, including many you don't expect. I don't know how it will present files opened by network users - whether they'll appear as owned by the file sharing process or not at all. Definitely one to try.

Select distinct using LINQ and bound to a dropdown list with id and display name

Hi,
On one of my sharepoint page, I want to populate dropdown list with countries, namely
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlCountry" runat ="server"></asp:DropDownList>
In the code, I use LINQ:
var country = (from p in dc.ProvCountries
select p.country_code ).Distinct();
ddlCountry.DataSource = country;
ddlCountry.DataBind();
I want the country_code to be the ID, while the country_name will be the display name in the dropdown, how can that be done?
Thanks in advance.

Add Country dropdown list in custom B2C application

Hi,
Please help me in providing a dropdown input field to list all countries in custom b2c application.
I tried using the reference of country dropdown field provided in customer registration form after(i.e register.inc.jsp) but not working.
Could you please help with the code in JSP, java script associated or other alternative?

I copied and replaced the field name with 'country' in the java script related and in the html with script code. I remembered that I forgot to populate the country list in the action class earlier.
But after doing that I get null in the dropdown. Trying to debug but unable to. the control doesn't stop at that breakpoint in the custom class
I'm using country list with some other custom fields that are just input fields along with date fields that has calender options.
I need only country list in my custom jsp.
Thanks,

How to create dropdown list for custom remote function module

HI ,
       I created a custom remote function module for a ztable.table having four fields.But now the requirement is to maintain the dropdown list for input parameter .
For eg: I maintain Input parameter as action.For that Action we have to maintain a dropdown list(display,insert,update and delete values ) in function module.Is it possible.

Hi
Try using POPUP_GET_VALUES function module in the begining of the Function module this gives a POP to provide a value to you
In this you can provide a value
Check the import parameters of this Function module if it has COMBOBOX as parameter ( I dont have SAP access at this point of time) you can pass X to it so you get List box for the following fields
Create a domain to field and assing fixed values to it and use it in any table(As this works with only existing tables)
refresh fields.
DATA: fields LIKE SVAL OCCURS 0.
fields-tabname = 'MAKT'.
FILEDS-FIELDNAME = 'MAKTX'.
APPEND FIELDS.
CALL FUNCTION 'POPUP_GET_VALUES' " Try copying this in a Test program and execute

Authorization Issue with Custom Pending Value Object and Anonymous Users

Hi,
I am just converting my demo from version 7.1 to 7.2. I am not doing upgrade. The demo uses a custom pending value object USER_REQUEST. The idea is that new employee goes to Java AS as anonymous user and enters her details and store where she will work. After submitting request there is an approval process using custom entry type USER_REQUEST. If the request is approved then IdM converts USER_REQUEST into MX_PERSON entry. This works nice in 7.1 but I am having problems with replicating this in 7.2. I created new UI task accessible by anonymous that creates new USER_REQUEST entry. I also assigned role idm.anonymous with UME action idm_anonymous to UME built in group Anonymous users.
My problem is with the field STORE. This field is a reference field to another custom entry type STORE (this entry type will be used in context based assignment). Every new employee must selects a store where she will work. The problem is when user clicks on button "Select". Web dynpro terminates and returns authorization error. I also tested this with entry type MX_ROLE. I added attribute MXREF_MX_ROLE and same issue. So it seems that just assigning UME action idm_anonymous is not enough to list objects from identity store. I found a workaround for this issue. When I assign also UME action idm_authenticated to Anonymous users then it does not dump and I get a pop up window where I can search for store. It does not seem right to assign idm_authenticated to anonymous users.
Another issue is with display task for entry type USER_REQUEST. I assigned a display task to entry STORE and I set that Anonymous have access to this task in Access control tab. I assigned default value to the field store. So when a user opens page she can see a hyper link to display already assigned store. When user clicks on this hyper link it opens a new pop up window and user must authenticate against Java AS. After successful authentication the display task for entry STORE is displayed. I would assume that anonymous user can display it without authentication.
So to me it seems like authorization checks have been changed in 7.2 versions and are more strict for anonymous tasks. Hence my question is how can I implement my scenario. Am I missing some configuration or what's the proper solution to my two issues? I don't count assigning idm_authenticated to Anonymous users as a solution. This workaround does not solve my second issue.
Thanks

Some of the folks from Trondheim labs check, but rather infrequently. There's another person who I guess is in consulting that also checks from time to time.

Hi
First you need to append a structure in EBAN table, The values you need to pass to the
BAPIPAREX - Ref. structure for BAPI parameter ExtensionIn/ExtensionOut
Structure will be the appen strucre created in EBAN.
You can pass the values of the 10 fileds to the VALUEPART1, VALUEPART2 fileds in the structure with 240 charcters each.
Hope this helps.
Thanks & Regards

Defaulting value of Dropdown List to the first value of a BI Query

Hi,
In my VC application I have a form containing a dropdown list to be used as selection criteria for other data. The dropdown list is dynamically populated by a BI Query. When I run the application, the dropdown list is correctly populated with the values returned by the linked query. However, on initial load of the iView, the default value of the dropdown list is blank. The requirement is for the first item returned by the linked query to display as the default value.
I would appreciate any suggestions on how to achieve this requirement.
Thank you,
Mustafa Bensan.

Hi Mustafa,
I checked your requirement but it is not possible to display first value as default value for a drop down list because the list will be generate when you click the drop down list. You can use a 'list box' instead of drop down list.

Populating dropdown list with entries in multiple text boxes?

I'm creating a form that needs to be simple to use and complete. I would like to be able to populate a drop-down list with entries the user puts into text boxes. Can this be done?
For more detail:
In one location is a table, the use will type into a text box a Project Name, then other information such as location and total acres.
In another location I've got a table where the user will enter the offerings from each project they listed in the 1st table. It is a long table as it is, I cannot combine the two (will not fit on one page if I do combine them).
Instead of making the user type in the project names multiple times, I'd like to be able to take the project names the users input (from table one) and have those entries automatically populate the dropdown list in the second table.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

Not exactly a find and replace but you can do it.
Select the text frames yu want to change the colors using the shift key to click select the frames.
Then go to Edit>Edit Color>Recolor Art
You wll see a dialog with red and black bars along side two shorter bars click the shorter bars to select a New Color a color picker will appear you can use the swatches or the color mixer.
There is a live preview /so you will see the change in case you want to pick a different gray, of course you can always go back to the recolor art dialog.
I am afraid you manually have to select text frames with multiple colors in order to accomplish what you want but the method above I believe is the only want to change the colors.
This video shows how the dialog works but pretend the one frame I did not select is another color.
