Dynamic time field in Variant

Hi ,
I would like to create a variant for a custom report with time being dynamic.Purpose is to execute this report every hour as background job with time also as an input .ie suppose job is running every hour , report should fetch data within this interval of 1 hour each. So i need to have a variant which will take time range between current system time and 1 hour less than that.
Pls let me know how I can achieve this. I am using SAP 4.6C and couldnt find any standard time variants for achieving this feature.
Thanks in advance

Hi,

How to hide dynamic selection fields in variants

hi,
When a selection variant is saved, we have the option to 'hide' a selection field. That field may contain a value, but it is not shown on the selection screen. There is, however, a button that will display these hidden field when required.
Is it possible to do this also with dynamic selection fields ?
The column 'Hide field' is shown in the variant atttributes screen, but it is not active.
Please suggest

How do I add a time field to a dynamic list and form?

I'm trying to create an update form that logs when an action was taken. Among the fields are one for the date and one for the time, but I've not been able to get the time field to display or enter data correctly.
I've set the time format in the ADDT preferences (database date and time format is yyyy-mm-dd and HH:mm:ss and screen format is dd/mm/yyyy and HH:mm). When I create the list or the form using the wizard, there is no option to display the field as a time.
In step 3 of 4 in the Dynamic List Wizard, the 'Display as' options are: text, numeric, double and date. Choosing date for the time field gives me a display as though it was a date (I get '00/00/0000'). I have the same problem with generating a Dynamic Form in that there is no option to display a time, only a date.
Am I able to do this using the wizard, or is there another way that I'm, missing? Thanks for any help.

If those date/time fields are only needed for logging purposes then follow Günter's instructions.
If you need to be able to edit those two fields and have their values displayed properly then there are several steps you should take.
First open the page that uses the Dynamic List behavior and make sure that all date and time fields are configured to display as dates. Then open the page with the dynamic form and click on "Manage Dynamic Form Wizard" in the Developer Toolbox. Configure your date and time fields to submit as dates. Then go to the Server Behaviors panel and double click on "Validate Form". You should now have 3 date/time options available under Validation Format: Date, Datetime, and Time. Configure each field as needed.
This will ensure that date and time fields are saved in the proper format so that when you view their values they will be displayed properly, that is dates will be displayed as dates and times as times.
There are also several additional server formats available that are accessible through the Bindings panel that you might want to experiment with.

Connecting a CSS doc to an XML file, in a dynamic text field in Flash

Hi all,
I am trying to connect a CSS file such that it applies it
self to the content of an XML file, viewed inside a dynamic text
field. So far I have managed to gather the code that "calls" the
contents of the XML file and also the code that calls the CSS file.
However, when I test the flash movie I get "undefined" instead of
the actual copy.
Attached then is the the AS code, XML file, and CSS file. I
hope you could help me connect everything together.
And of course, THANKS!!

Leading zeros in dynamic text fields

I have a dynamic text field that indicates the degree of
rotation of a knob. I need the display to have three digits showing
at all times. This means I need leading zeros from 0 to 99. ie,
000, 001, 002, etc.
Is there a way to do this numerically or do I have to change
the numbers to strings and concatenate??
Thanks,

Yes, for the most part only strings can start with leading
zeros.
You might run into some troubles because Flash treats a
leading zero as a sign that a number is octal, base-8.
So if you were planning on using Number() to cast your values
into numbers, don't! Instead use parseInt(someString,10).

Activating dynamic date calculation in variant

Per the link below, I used to be able to activate "dynamic date calculation" in variant.
<link to blocked site removed by moderator>
Our system has been upgraded to 6.0 and now we do not the same variant attribues screen where I can activate the "D" variable. It brings me to program/screen SA38/281.
Any suggestion how I may activate the "D" dynamic date calculation variable in a variant?
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Oct 14, 2011 11:34 AM

Actually I meant the relevant code of your custom report, you just provided me with the info of the standard variant screen.
You can go to SE38, enter your custom report name, display the code, and paste the definition of that parameter. (It would be something like
PARAMETERS: P_DATEHG TYPE XXX_TYPE.
What I am interested in is to know which data type is being used, since this functionaliy will only apply to date type fields. So, bottom line: this field must definitely be a date, which makes me think that either something has changed in the custom report or after the upgrade to ECC 6.0 this data type might have changed as well.
Best regards.

If else conditional statements for dynamic text fields (as 2.0)

This is about a self assesment quiz.There will be four options and each one has a scale from1-5 ie "option a" has 1mark, "option b" has 2marks,"option c" has 3 marks, "option d" has 4marks and "option e" has 5 marks and we count the answerd and we display the scor for example if there are 20 question in it if they answered "option e" 5 times the score will be
25 and option d 5 times the score will be 20,anf if "option c" for 5 times the score will be 15,and "option b" for 3 times the score will be 6 and "option a" two times the score will be 2, and we add up all the score and display in a dynamic text field called "scor" and the total score is 68.And i have another dynamic text field called "tsc" where i have to display the tags like excellent , good, better ......ect.
Till now every thing is fine but i am unable to compare them it is displaying excellent even if i get 10 marks, i am unable to configure where i am going wrong.
If the score is greater than 55 "tsc" should display Excellent, if the score is greater than 41 or less than 55 "tsc" should display Best, if the score is greater than 26 or less than 40 "tsc" should display Better,if the score is none of the above "tsc" should display Poor.
This is my code on the submit button:
on (release) {
    gotoAndStop("sQ");
    if (scor>=55) {
        tsc = "Excellent";
    } else if (scor == 41 && scor<=55) {
        tsc = "Best";
    } else if (scor == 26 && scor<=40) {
        tsc = "Better";
    } else if (scor == 10 && scor<=25) {
        tsc = "Good";
    } else {
        tsc = "Poor";
where:
"sQ" is the frame name where i am displaying the score details
"scor" is the var name for the dynamic text field for displaying total score
"tsc" is the var name for the dynamic text field for displaying the tags llike good, Excellent, better, poor.....etc
Plese help.......

Use trace commands to make sure that what you think you are processing is what is actually hapenning.
Your middle conditionals are not written as you described them... any "==" should be ">="
It is recommended you get away from using the textfield var option... it can be troublesome to work with. Just assign an instance name to the textfield and assign the values to its text property... for instance, say you name it tscField, then you would use tscField.text = "Excellent";
Also, realize that the gotoAndStop command will not happen until after all the code executes in case that matters
on (release) {
    gotoAndStop("sQ");
    trace(scor);
    if (scor>=55) {
        tsc = "Excellent";
    } else if (scor >= 41 && scor<=55) {
        tsc = "Best";
    } else if (scor >= 26 && scor<=40) {
        tsc = "Better";
    } else if (scor >= 10 && scor<=25) {
        tsc = "Good";
    } else {
        tsc = "Poor";

Dynamic screen field values

Hi,
One quick question, I have created a screen with reference to a custome table fields and it is working fine. When I enter values for the first time, the values look ok in debug but when I change the values on the screen, the new values are not updated in the screen fields in debug. Old values are shown in the debug.
I guess there is some kind of logic to do this. Like using the dynamic screen fields read or ....
Can someone help me on this?
Regards,
Roopesh Singh

hi there...
when u first enter the values, they get into the work area related to the screen fields.....
but when u change the values, they dont get changed in the workarea associated with the fields. since the data does not get updated in the fields, it wont show in the debugging mode. so chk ur code and make sure u update the data in the variables associated with the fields.
do reward if helpful or get back with further queries.

Interactive form -Dynamic input fields

Hi,
I am working with an interactive form.
After Userinputs a InputField1 it should populate Inputfield2 dynamically.
Lets Say if I enter a 01/01/2009 in input field1, second input field should be a week after date 01/07/2009.
How do we handle this ?
rgds
Vara

Hi,
Select the InputField1 and goto Script Editor and select the Event type: "Change" and Language as "FormCalc" and in editor write the below code:
InputField2.rawValue = Num2Date(IsoDate2Num($.rawValue)+7,"DD/MM/YYYY")
Based on your requirement change the display pattern of both the date fields in the object pallette.
Note: Make both the fields as Date/Time Fields and not TextFields.

Printing - With Dynamic Text Fields

Hello,
i wonder if anyone can help me........i know there are a lot
of posts already on how to print out dynamic text but all of them
seem to be using scrolling text fields.
However my problem isn't even as complex as this but i still
can't work it out.
At the moment i have a form of text boxes which the user
inputs text.............from here there is a print
button.........in order to compile all of the answers together i
have created a movie clip.........with the layout of the printed
page on it, and placed this on the main timeline. Inside this movie
clip to be printed i have dynamic text fields...which link to the
text fields which the users inputted data in, therefore both sets
of text fields contain the same data, when you change one the other
should change.
I have set up a very simple printJob command to print out the
movie clip named print_mc and it prints the page even the outline
of the text boxes but it doesn't print out the content which
appears on the screen. my code is attached below.......please if
anyone could help i would be very grateful :)
print_btn.onRelease = function() {
_global.aOneVar =oneAPone.text;
_global.aTwoVar =oneAPtwo.text;
print_mc.gotoAndStop("2");
var myPrintJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
var result:Boolean = myPrintJob.start();
if (result) {
myPrintJob.addPage("print_mc", null, {printAsBitmap:false},
2);
myPrintJob.send();
delete myPrintJob;
} else {
thanks

I'm with ya. Presumably, then there's a font symbol in your
Library,
right? And its Linkage identifier is "arial_font"?
> If I keep the xml/css but comment out embedFonts, then
> the content works but is not anti-aliased.
That's because your CSS calls for Franklin Gothic Book,
which hasn't
been imported into your Library as a font symbol (at least,
you haven't said
it has).
> I need both of these to work at the same time.
Give Franklin Gothic Book a Linkage identifier, and use that
name in
your CSS.

Bold and italic fonts in dynamic text fields.

I have a dynamic text field with the text "IMAGES". The font
is Arial, it has BOLD and ITALIC checked, and has basic Latin fonts
embedded. Now, I use Actionscript to change the text:
textField.text = "IMAGES";
Suddenly the text disappears! Now, it seems to me that since
BOLD and ITALIC are checked on the text field, changing the .text
value should simply change the text itself, which should then be
rendered in bold and italic, and since I have bold+italic Latin
glyphs embedded, it should display properly. But what's clearly
happening is that when I set the text using Actionscript, it is
attempting to display the NORMAL font instead, and since it's not
embedded, it won't display. I know this because if I create another
proxy text field off the screen and embed the NORMAL Arial glyphs,
the original text field's text will display just fine - as
normal-weight text.
But why is this? Do I have to use a TextFormat object to set
the text to Bold and Italic EVERY time I want to dynamicaly change
the text? This seems silly. I simply want my text field to be bold
and italic every time the text changes, and NO normal text!
Any ideas?

I met the same problem using ActionScript3 and Flash Professional CS5. There are two problems with dynamic TextFields:
- When you set style "Bold" for a text field in CS5, the "bold" property is not available in the TextField object in ActionScript, its defaultTextFormat.bold is alway false; I don't know if we can get this property anywhere else.
- When you change the text of the dynamic TextField object, its style changes to normal no matter whether it was bold previously.
This is really a bug in TextField, Adobe should fix this to implement TextField in an expected way.

How to add dynamic jquery fields into DB

I am using the script from: http://www.coldfusionjedi.com/index.cfm/2009/2/19/Using-jQuery-to-add-form-fields to dynamically add fields to a form. I am having trouble actually inserting the fields into a DB. It seems that the field name is the same each time so they just get combined into one variable. For instance, if field 1 is "John" and they add another person and his name is "Frank" field1 becomes, "John, Frank".
I have a few more fields then that, so I am unsure how to proceed. Anyone have any ideas or code samples that have worked for them? Essentially I am trying to loop through the form and insert each additional field seperately.
Any ideas?
Thanks a ton

Thanks for the help! I am still stuck as to exactly how this will be done. My form is as follows:
Type:
Price:
Unite:
Name:
and users can add another product etc so there will be more fields for each additional product (which all seem to get truncated as a comma seperated list in the form value)
Here is what I have so far, after the form is submitted:
<cfloop item="key" collection="#form#">
<cfquery name="insertnote">
INSERT INTO Deals (type, price, unit, name) VALUES ('#form.type#', #form.price#, '#form.unit#', '#form.name#' )
</cfquery>
</cfloop>
I honestly don't use loops like this very often so I apologize for having a lack of understanding. I know you mentioned making them nested loops but I dont' know how to do it and have it successfully insert the appropriate data. Everytime I try it doesnt come out right.

Dynamic mandatory field error message is not getting displayed in webui

Hi,
In Appointment if the importance is HIGH i made Location as mandatory.For this i enhanced BT126H_APPT/ApptDetails. In the get_p_location() method of BTACTIVITYYH i have written the code.
Now the problem is Error message for this dynamic mandatory field is not getting displayed in webui.
I debugged in DO_FINISH_INPUT error message is getting generated but it is not getting displayed in ui.
Can anybody tell where the problem is?
Thanks,
Hari.

Hi Hari,
Really sorry do not know how to convert this nug file to text
How ever quick solution for your problem would be just keep your validation in 'DO_VALIDATE_INPUT' method of the view controller.
Means even if the User clicks on SAVE , Since it fails here , it would not allow you to go further.
Thanks,

Dynamic Text Field is not displaying foreign characters... HELP!

I have a dynamic text field that is not displaying foreign characters properly. They appear as boxes.
Here's what I've tried.
Under properties for the text field, I clicked on the embed characters button. In there, I pasted all the special characters I would need and clicked okay. Shouldn't this be enough for the text to display properly? What am I missing? Please help...

More info: I'm noticing that in the actual dynamic text field in my .FLA file, if I type a foreign character like é, it pops up as a block. My family font is set to New Caledonia... is it possible that New Caledonia doesn't have those particular glyphs? The thing that doesn't make sense to me though is, last year when I made this card, it worked fine with New Caledonia... Any help is greatly appreciated!!
