E-Recruiting Application Attachment to worng Object (NA vs ND)

Hello Experts:
My client is using E-Recruiting 6.00 (sp10). when executing the application wizard (applying for a job posting) as either an internal or external candidate, attachements are being maintained on Candidate object (NA) instead of the Application object (NB). This is a problem as any modifications made in the container sequence for Attachments (Add/Delete) have the effect of modifying the Employeer Profile (ie the attachments are really on the candidate object and not the application - which is not obvious to the candidate).
I'm not sure if this is the default behavior, but it seems these attachements should be attached to the Application Object (HRP5134 - OTYPE ND).
What I would like to do is modify (preferrably via configuration) the Object Type taken into account by the Attchament Containter Sequenct (WDA/BSP?) element, such that the object is stored on the Application Object (OTYPE ND).
Right now, when I look at Infotype 5134 I don't see any attachements (subtype 0001 - Resume) attached to any object type other than NA (candidate). I would like to see attachments for both object types NA & ND (Candidate & Application), so that the candidates can maintain their attachments separate from what is included for on each appliation.
Instructions / directions / advice please.

Hi Mark,
Short answer: This is standard behavior. The attachments is stored against the NA object.
There is no configuration that support this.
Not sure what a good solution could be.

Christian

Attaching the WebUtil object group to a form

Hi. I'm hoping for some help on how to attach the WebUtil object group to a form. I go to the Object Groups node in the object navigator and click the '+' button, but I'm not prompted to attach .olb files. How do I do this? Without it attached I'm receiving the message "The WebUtil object group is not available in this form. WebUtil cannot work." when I run my application. Thanks in advance.

Okay I opened the .obl and it appears under the Object Libraries Node. Then I double-click on the Object Groups node in my form and it simply creates a new object named OBJECT_GROUP100. I can't seem to drag and drop from the Libraries Node to the Object Groups node in my form. It just shows a circle with a line through it indicating that I can't drag it. Any suggestions? (Sorry, I've not done this before).

Adding and Calling custom method to the application module or view object

My project uses jheadstart 10.1.2.
I want to run "oracle reports" from my uix page. I have coded a method which takes "VOParameter view object" as a parameter to run report.
I have generated the input page (parameter page) which based on VOParameter view object, by using jheadstart for using jheadstart lov, date etc. advantages. But I dont know how can I add custom method on application module or view object implementation class and custom button on uix page to call from uix page.
THANKS for your help

Yes, method binding has been added to the page UI model.
I have find some clue that When I darg and drop metod as a submitButton, the code "
<SubmitButton text="runReport" model="${bindings.runReport}" id="runReport0" event="action" />"
is added to the uix page code. I change this code like this;
<button text="runReport" model="${bindings.runReport}" id="runReport0" event="action" onClick="submitForm('dataForm',1,{'event':'action','source':'runReport0'});return false"/>
by adding onClick method and changed submitButton to button tag..
Then button action is triggered. But I can not pass to the design part of the uix page. It gives me the message like that "The document is not a valid state" But it works. I dont know why?

Oracle Application Server 10g Java Object Cache

Hi,
I am new to Java and looking for a java caching framework and just came across Oracle Application Server 10g Java Object Cache. I am unable to find 11g version of the same. Is it not supported any more?
Can I use this with weblogic server? Please suggest if any other alternatives.
Thanks,
Manoj

Bump.
I definitely don't see the same file: C:\dev\jdevstudio10134\javacache\lib\cache.jar in the Oracle JDEV tree. Is there a suggested alternative?

E-Recruitment Applications in Websphere Portal

Hi,
We have a requirement wherein we need to have E recruitmtnt applications in IBM Websphere Portal.I have gone through few documents and i am not clear how to move forward.Could anyone suggest some best way to achieve this.
1.If we do Integration between SAP Portal and IBM websphere, can we get E Recruitment applications in Websphere Portal.If this is the way what might be the issues we are gong to face moving forward.(As suggested through SAP iView Integration Portlet i guess)
2.As E recruitment applications we are using is completely based on ABAP Webdynpro,is it possible to display these applications directly from ECC to IBM Websphere Portal.(As every WDA is associated with an URL, can we make use of this URL in Websphere)
3.Again E recruitment Portal content needs SAP Portal because some of the functions of the roles ( like Recruiter iview , Manager Iview etc are delivered as Portal Content).Can we achieve all these without SAP Portal.
I would be great if someone suggest me the right way.
Regards,
Anil

How to invoke a method in application module or view objects interface?

Hi,
perhaps a stupid RTFM question, but
How can i invoke a method that i have published in the application modules or view objects interfaces using uiXml with BC4J?
Only found something how to invoke a static method (<ctrl:method class="..." method="..." />) but not how to call a method with or without parameters in AM or VO directly with a uix-element.
Thanks in advance, Markus

Thanks for your help Andy, but i do not understand why this has to be that complicated.
Why shall i write a eventhandler for a simple call of a AM or VO method? That splatters the functionality over 3 files (BC4J, UIX, handler). Feature Request ;-)?
I found a simple solution using reflection that can be used at least for parameterless methods:
<event name="anEvent">
<bc4j:findRootAppModule name="MyAppModule">
     
      <bc4j:setPageProperty name="MethodName" value="myMethod"/>
      <ctrl:method class="UixHelper"
              method="invokeApplicationModuleMethod"/>
   </bc4j:findRootAppModule>
</event>The UixHelper method:
public static EventResult invokeApplicationModuleMethod( BajaContext context,
                                                           Page page,
                                                           PageEvent event ) {
    String methodName = page.getProperty( "MethodName" );
    ApplicationModule am = ServletBindingUtils.getApplicationModule( context );
    Method method = null;
    try {
      method = am.getClass( ).getDeclaredMethod( methodName, null );
    } catch( NoSuchMethodException e ) {
      RuntimeException re = new RuntimeException( e );
      throw re;
    try {
      method.invoke( am, null );
    } catch( InvocationTargetException e ) {
      RuntimeException re = new RuntimeException( e );
      throw re;
    } catch( IllegalAccessException e ) {
      RuntimeException re = new RuntimeException( e );
      throw re;
    return null;
}Need to think about how to handle parameters and return values.
Btw. Do i need to implement the EventHandler methods synchronized?
Regards, Markus

Application Services uses other application Services like business Object

Hallo
I use the SAP NetWeaver 7.1 SP3.
One question can i use in the Applcation Service another Application Service (not Business Object)?
The reasons I want to have this possibility:
If I use the external service and I will be exposed as a new Applicaiton Service, thus it can be used by several application Services.
I have put one Application Service A into the dependency of Application Service B... but in code i can not find out the API to lauch to the Application B.
Thanks and Kind Regards
Ping

Thanks
But I can not find the Object ApplicationServiceALocal
and the code
ApplicationServiceALocal appServiceA = this.getApplicationServiceA();
I can not get it.
Maybe I should after the add dependency Generate Application, buîld Application?
Kind Regards

Attach a form objects to another form

Hi, excuse me if my question is evident for you, i am a little new with oracle form,
i want to know if it is possible to attach a form objects to another form and how to do that. Thanks for your help.
Edited by: Tabit7 on Apr 1, 2011 11:37 AM

You cannot attatch a whole form (.fmb) to you form but you can subclass blocks canvas for example.
open your form A and B
in your reference form A select the block you want to have in form B (subclassed) and select and drag it to B.
You will have a popup saying "do you want to copy the object ir subclass it ?" choose sublass and you are ready...
Do the same with canvas.
but PAY ATTENTION !!!! this method seems very useful if you have let say a identical master block for different forms.
but you have to handle it with precautions as every changes made in form A will be reflected to all your sub-classed forms B, B1, B2 .... and could cause you designs problems
if for example you master form A width change to something larger than one of you B forms.
Hope this helps

E-Recruiting - Attachment Types and Object Relationships

Can someone help me to understand why SAP recommends attachment types to be linked to the Application object and not to the Candidacy object? I've always created attachment types specific to certain candidacy activities to that object as appropriate. Is there a technical implication that I am not aware of? If so, please advise. Thank you for your help.

Hi Roman and experts
We have an issue where we have created 2 attachments:
Attachment type 10 PDR
Attachment type 17 Mamual Application Form
both of subtype text "Resume" which we have attached to object type NA Candidate.
What is happening is that once a candidate has attached these to his/her application then they automatically are attached to any past and future applications as well. I assume if we had assigned them to object type ND Application instead then they would be unique to the application ie: not attach to all applications?
Also can an attachment type only be assigned to object type NA or object type ND eg: could 10 PDR be assigned to both candidate and application?
Many thanks
Dawn

GOS - Cannot open .docx/.xlsx file programmatically attached to business object

I am supporting an existing web dynpro application that allows users to attach files to a purchase requsition in SAP. The current solution allows for a successful attachment and display of .doc and .xls files, but gives an error when displaying .docx and .xlsx files.
The current solution follows this logic: The code identifies the MIME type of the file to derive the file extension. Then, it converts the document contents from a xstring type to binary via function SCMS_EXTRING_TO_BINARY. After the conversion, it creates an initial instance of BO 'MESSAGE' and populates the message container with the required parameters. It creates the container, refreshes the message object, and gets the key of the new message object. Then, the code populates the BO object_a and object_b and calls the method   cl_binary_relation=>create_link to attach the file. Lastly, a commit work statement is executed. Based on the code samples I have seen online, this solution is logically correct.
I am able to successfully attach .doc and .xls files from this web dynpro application, and then later open them from ME53N. I am also able to "successfully" attach .docx and .xlsx files from the application. If I view the attachment list in ME53N, these files are visible. However, when I attempt to open the attachments, Word/Excel gives me an error message "The file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents. The file is corrupt and cannot be opened." If I click OK to bypass the error, it gives an additional prompt "Word found unreadable content in document. Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you trust the source of this document, click yes." If I click yes, the document opens.
.docx / .xlsx files attached via ME52N will open without issue
.doc / .xls files attached programmatically via this web application open without issue
these are the MIME types associated with .docx / .xlsx both in the web application and in SAP configuration:
.docx:   application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
.xlsx:    application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
Does anyone have an idea why the newer document versions appear to be corrupt when opening? Does the error from Word imply there is a data conversion issue, even though the .doc and .xls documents are readable? Are the .docx/.xlsx file types unusable with the   cl_binary_relation=>create_link method, and should instead be used with the function 'BINARY_RELATION_CREATE'?
Any help is greatly appreicated. Thanks in advance!

I replied too quickly. This change in providing the file size DID help when I was attaching .docx files. They open succesfully now, as well as, .doc and .xls files.
However, I'm still having the same issue when I try attaching .xlsx files. Furthermore, now .txt files do not display correctly. Before passing the file size correctly, they were displaying in notepad. Now, they open in the SAP GUI and only show characters, rather then the actual text.
It seems like this file size typo was just a coincidence for .docx files. I'm still looking for help on this issue. Thanks in advance.

How to attach a DOM object as stream to SOAP message?

Hi friends,
I want to attach a parsed XML document (DOM object) to SOAP message, but but I do not want to attach it as a String, instead, I want to attach it as a binary format, given a DOM object.
Any one can help tell me what can I do for it? and what is the content type it should be?
Thanks!

I knew the Java Doc API, actually I can attach text string format, but since what I want is binary data (i.e, serialize form of DOM stream), it does not seem to work as attachment.
1).if I use:
attachment.setContent(doc, "application/octec-stream");it throws:
javax.activation.UnsupportedDataTypeException: no object DCH for MIME type application/octec-stream
2). if I use:
attachment.setContent(doc, "application/xml");it still throws:
javax.activation.UnsupportedDataTypeException: no object DCH for MIME type application/octec-stream
3). if I use serailized form of the document String docString = DOMUtil.serializeDocument(doc);
attachment.setContent(docString, "text/xml");I checked the docString, which is like this form:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<a xmlns="http://foo.org">
<b>text</b>
</a>
but it throws:
java.io.IOException: Unable to run the JAXP transformer on a stream null
3). it only works if I use serailized form of the document, and set content-type to "text/plain"
String docString = DOMUtil.serializeDocument(doc);
attachment.setContent(docString, "text/plain");Any idea what is wrong here?
Thanks!

E-recruiting: change attachment format in requisition maintenance

Hi everyone,
i need to change the attachment format in requisition maintenance.
i add a text field and i need to allowed the user to add a virtual file(file that not really excist)
and when the user click on add attachment i need to create the file and save it and restore the file where sap restore all the files that he attach.
is anyone know how can i restore the file so it can be the same place that sap restore the file?
thanks in advanced,
dana.

Hi Dana,
In E-Recruiting we are using a concept of storing the documents in Knowledge Warehouse by calling the following standard class.
CALL METHOD cl_hrrcf_hrkwf_storage=>update_attachment
by having the parameters: Content of the attachment, Description, Dpcument ID, Language, Object ID, Sub Type, Etc. I think you can also the same.
Have an overview on the std class, and based on the class you can create your own Z class.

ADOBE Forms attachment to SAP object (Order) and updating it

Hi,
I have the following scenario:
I need to attach a PDF document to a PM order. This can be achieved using the standard feature of attaching documents to SAP Objects. The requirement is to open the same attached document and update it by entering some information ( for example checking some check boxes) . After updating the document, it is again attached back to the PM order.
I would like to know if I can use Adobe forms in this scenario to:
- Design the PDF as per customer requirement
- Make changes in the PDF. (Please note that this data is not saved in any SAP application database)
- Attach the updated PDF again to the PM order
Thanks,
Arvind Kulkarni
