Explicit pageview tracking with custom links

Hi all,
is there a way of triggering a pageview by using custom links e.g. by using the "record" function? Concrete example would be a CQ tab component which changes large amounts of contents on the page without reloading it and business wants to track these clicks explicitly as page views.
I know that the "normal" approach would be using the library's s.t() function but I was wondering whether when there's a method for tracking custom link clicks there might be a similar way to increase the pageviews.
Any response is appreciated
Thanks from Zurich,
Bjoern

Saved search issue with custom link

Hi all,
Generally we do have one opportunity search . But according to my requirement I have added one more opportunity search for separate Opportunity type .
I do have 2 different view configurations for regular search/result and newly added custom search/result.
here the issue is with Archived Saved Search( those are saved in regular Opportunity Search) is not working properly when I am open custom Search and then open the saved Search( from Home Page) . Here again I need to open the regular opportunity Search and execute the Saved Search then it is working.
When I come out from custom search/result, then execute the Saved Search it is calling the configuration of Custom Search/result.
here I need to destroy the custom configuration search/result when I come out or execute the saved search . already I tried the WD_DESTROY method in Mainview set level. But it is not working .
Regards.

How do I add URI web link with custom tooltip like "CLICK HERE TO UPDATE" instead of URI web link in tooltip.

How do I add URI web link with custom tooltip like "CLICK HERE TO UPDATE" instead of URI web link in tooltip.

You've probably found an answer to this by now, but I think this has been addressed in another forum -- The link below suggested using a button and adding the tooltip to the button.

Replication of BP linked with Customer number from R/3 to CRM

Hi,
We are trying to replicate BP linked with the customer number.
In R/3 when a BP is created automatically a customer is created for this BP (due to activation of synchrozination- BP -->Customer ) with different numbers and is available in the customer-general data tab of the BP in the field - Customer number.
Both BP and Customer are having different numbers this needs to be replicated to crm as a BP with the Customer number appearing in the Identificatio tab as R/3 customer number (identification type).
Example - A BP with number-100 is created then automatically a customer with number 2000 is attached to this BP -100. The same needs to be replicated to CRM. Both BP and customer shud have same GUID.
With the settings that is done now two records are getting created seperately one with BP number and other with customer number based on settings in PIDE.
How can we configure this?
Thanks & Regards
Prathiba

Hi,
I think you are using some IS component in ECC. Hope you are using BUPA_MAIN and BUPA_REL objects for downloading BP's to CRM. In PIDE you do not need to maintain mapping for customer.

How to Use Custom Linker with Xcode 4.x?

I am using a customer compiler with Xcode and would like to know how to force Xcode to use my own linker line with custom arguments.
I created a new compiler spec file under:
/Developer/Library/Xcode/PrivatePlugIns/Xcode3Core.ideplugin/Contents/SharedSupp ort/Developer/Library/Xcode/Plug-ins
The default linker is defined in Ld.spec located in:
/Developer/Library/Xcode/PrivatePlugIns/Xcode3Core.ideplugin/Contents/SharedSupp ort/Developer/Library/Xcode/Plug-ins/CoreBuildTasks.xcplugin/Contents/Resources
The following link seems to indicate that what I want to do is possible:
http://maxao.free.fr/xcode-plugin-interface/compilers-linkers.html
It seems like you have to create a custom Linker spec, give it an identifier, and then have the compiler spec reference your linker spec id by including it in the "RequiredLinker" key.
My compiler spec looks like:
{   Type = Compiler;
   Identifier = com.apple.compilers.armx;
   BasedOn = com.apple.compilers.gcc.4_2;
   Name = "ARMx";
   Version = "4.2";
   Description = "ARMx GCC Cross Compiler";
   ExecPath = "/Volumes/arm-x/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc";
   RequiredLinker = com.apple.pbx.linkers.armx;
The problem is that Xcode 4.1 still is insisting on using the default Apple linker. I want it to use my ARM based toolchain, which does not support some of the options that Xcode ends up passing on the linker line.

You would be better off using a makefile-based project with custom compilers and linkers.

Best practice for handling custom apps tracks with regards to EP upgrade?

Hi,
We've are currently in the progress of upgrading from EP 6 to EP 7.0, and in that context we need to "move" our tracks containg development of custom J2EE components.
What we've done so far is :
1.Create a new version 7.00 of each software component we have developed with correct EP 7 dependencies
2. Create a new version 7.00 of our product in the SLD: Bouvet_EP
3. Attached the new versions of the SCs to the new product version
4. Create a new track with the SC of version 7.00 along with relevant dependencies
My question now is how do we get the EP 6 component source code into the new track, so that we can change dependecies of the DCs and build it again for EP 7.0?
Should we somehow export the code from the old track, check in and transport ? (how do we then export the code from the track)
Regards
Dagfinn

Hi Dagfinn,
This is a really interesting thread. I have not encountered this scenario till now. However i can only guess.
1. Copy the latest sca files generated for all the SC's in your track from one of the subdirectories of JTrans and place those sca files in the inbox directory of target CMS. Check if these sca are available in the Check-in tab. I think this will not work because the SC verion you have defined in SLD for WAS 7.0 is different than the one in SLD for WAS 6.40.
2. Second and crude method may be you create a SC in the source SLD similar to ones created in target SLD. Create a track for these SC's in the source system. Then create a track connection between the newly created track and existing tracks. Forward all the sources to the target track. Then assemble this SC and copy the sca file and repeat the process above.
I dont know. Possibly this may click. Notes 877029 & 790922 also give some hints on migration of JDI server.
Please do keep this thread updated with your progress.

TFS 2012 work items migration to TFS 2013 along with History,Links/Attachments & Custom fields??

Dear All,
TFS 2012 work items migration to TFS 2013 along with History,Links/Attachments & Custom fields?? is there any way..
Tried couple of tools:
1) Excel based migration : loss of data is custom fields, links, attachments, status
2) few tools in Code plex : Crashing/Not working.
Kindly provide your valuable comments here.
Cheers, Tarun

Hi Tarun,
I'd like to know the tools that you used in CodePlex. Generally, CodePlex project is not supported in MSDN forum, and you can post your questions and concerns in the issue secton of the project.
If you use TFS integration tools, according to this
blog, it is limited to migrating only Version Control items, Work Items, and the links between them. Please check the limiation and have a check with your migration. For the customized fields, you might need to do the same customizatoin on the target
team project.

How to link existing PG with custom VO at design time

Hi,
I want to customzie counter group seach page of Counters modules. Here instead of searching thorugh apps schema i want to search groups through my custom schema 'XYZ'. To achieve this, i did following task:
(i) exported GroupSearchPG from apps server to jdeveloper/myprojects directory.
(ii) Created workspace and project in jdeveloper and imported PG to this project.
(ii) downloaded GroupingSearchAM , GroupSearchVO and GroupSearchCO from $JAVA_TOP to Jdev myclasses directory, its working fine for apps schema from jdeveloper
(iii) Created BC4J package with existing name oracle.apps.csi.counter.grouping.schema
(iv) created custom VO (GroupSearchVO) with custom schema 'XYZ' (Since this is expert VO, I need not to extend base EO/VO)
Now, While trying to substitute my custom VO with existing VO. I could not see existing VO to replace with.
My question is how do we link components with exported page? I mean how does the linking happens with GroupSearchPG with its CO/EO/VO or AM.
Can you please let me know which step did i miss?
Thanks in advance
Tripti

For your situation,
VO needs to be substituted,
CO needs to be substituted and
AM needs to be extended.
To make your custom VO available in substitution process, add them to the extended AM. Custom CO can be attached through personalization.

SAP ArchiveLink - Scenarios in
Applications (BC-SRV-ARL)
SAP ArchiveLink® is one of the SAP Basis cross-application communication interfaces between
the SAP System and external components. External components may be general desktop
applications or external storage systems. The integration of SAP ArchiveLink in the various SAP
applications enables the storage scenarios explained in this cross-application documentation.
The documentation is structured as follows:
An Introductory Section (Seite 10) containing general information about storing using SAP
ArchiveLink and about the following documentation
An application-specific section for each SAP application component (for example, FI, SD,
HR) with the relevant storage scenarios
For information on related areas, see the following documentation:

SAP ArchiveLink and Application Scenarios
10 April 2001
SAP ArchiveLink and Application Scenarios
SAP ArchiveLink® is one of the integrated interfaces in the SAP Basis System that can be used
to store all kinds of documents in external content servers.
SAP ArchiveLink therefore complements the existing range of SAP application software. For a
detailed description of SAP ArchiveLink, see Introduction to SAP ArchiveLink (Extern).
The SAP application components, for example, SD, FI, HR and MM, support storing using SAP
ArchiveLink by providing various application scenarios. Inbound documents, outbound
documents, print lists, archive files, desktop files and binary files are supported.
How the inbound documents are entered in the system and forwarded for processing and storing
depends on the storage scenario used. For information about the possible Storage Strategies
(Extern) , see the documentation SAP ArchiveLink (Extern).
This documentation describes the storage scenarios that are integrated in the SAP applications,
for example, how Sales and Distribution (SD) documents can be stored in external storage
systems using SAP ArchiveLink.
Archiving in databases using the ADK (Archive Development Kit) is not the same as
storing using SAP ArchiveLink.
For informationen about data archiving using the ADK archiving transaction, see the
documentation Archiving and Deleting Application Data (Extern).
SAP AG SAP ArchiveLink - Scenarios in Applications (BC-SRV-ARL)
SAP ArchiveLink: Overview
April 2001 11
SAP ArchiveLink: Overview
Background
There is a growing trend nowadays to transfer stored data from paper/microfiche to external
content servers (for example, archives). Companies are obliged by law and/or internal
standards to keep documents for a certain length of time. Traditionally, paper archives or
microfilms have been used, but these methods are very expensive, either due to copying costs or
the large amount of space required by such archives. By contrast, electronic storing methods are
a much cheaper option and represent an important part of the paperless office concept.
SAPs R/3 System supports a variety of business processes, which can involve documents both
in paper form and in electronic form. The documents either serve to trigger all kinds of processing
steps in FI, SD, HR and so on, or they are documents relating to processes in one of these
application areas.
When linked to SAP applications, content servers and the SAP ArchiveLink interface allow
flexible access to all document searches available in the SAP System and can therefore lead to
considerable time savings. In addition, a combination of the SAP System and SAP ArchiveLink
allows users multiple access (parallel and direct) to stored documents from their work center
without the need for time-consuming searches, which guarantees faster access to documents.
The subsequent sections of this documentation describe the integration of SAP ArchiveLink in
the functions of various application components within the SAP System.
Concept
SAP ArchiveLink provides the following interfaces:
User interface
Application Interface
This interface consists of function modules, which must be integrated in the SAP
applications, if SAP ArchiveLink functions are to be used.
Business objects are linked to stored documents and object methods are available that
allow storing using SAP ArchiveLink to be integrated flexibly in SAP Business Workflow.
Interface between SAP and external components and general desktop applications
External components may be HTTP content servers, for example. General desktop
applications may be MS Word and MS Excel, for example.
Positioning SAP ArchiveLink
SAP ArchiveLink enables
Incoming documents to be stored in the SAP System
Information from the SAP System (for example, outgoing documents and print lists) to be
stored
Direct access from SAP application components to stored documents
Integration of external content servers with the SAP System
SAP ArchiveLink - Scenarios in Applications (BC-SRV-ARL) SAP AG
SAP ArchiveLink: Overview
The SAP ArchiveLink-specific Terms (Extern) document, technical document class, document
type, object type and synchronous storing and asynchronous storing are explained in the
SAP ArchiveLink documentation, which also contains information on the Administration Concept
(Extern) (content servers, links and link tables).
Technical Basis
Links from documents to business objects are created by the generation of a link table entry,
which contains both a unique identification for each business object using the object type and
object key and a reference to a stored document using the content server ID and a unique key for
each document stored in this content server. It is therefore possible to create a link between a
business object and any number of documents using a simple 1:n relationship in a table. No
entry is required in the application tables in which the business objects are managed. If the link
table entry for an stored document is deleted, all references in the SAP System to this stored
document are also deleted. This technique allows the options for accessing stored documents to
be integrated flexibly into the SAP System.
Application Interface
The interface to the SAP applications contains the following functions:
Linking business objects with stored documents
This function is used to display, retrieve or store stored documents directly from the
business object. An example of this is the link between an F1 business object invoice
and original invoices that have been scanned into the system.
Linking business objects with stored outgoing documents
This function is used to store documents generated using SAPscript and link them with
the relevant business objects. Examples of documents are outbound quotations, order
confirmations, purchase orders and invoices.
Storing print lists
The process for storing print lists is the same as for outgoing documents.
As of R/3 Release 4.6C, application objects archived in data archiving (ADK) are not
stored using SAP ArchiveLink, but rather using the Content Management Service
(Extern) of the SAP Knowledge Provider (Extern) (KPro).
Integration Status
Many applications in the SAP System are linked directly or indirectly with SAP ArchiveLink:
Direct link
FI
MM
SD
Indirect link
Via the DMS (document management system): MM, PP,...
SAP AG SAP ArchiveLink - Scenarios in Applications (BC-SRV-ARL)
SAP ArchiveLink: Overview
April 2001 13
SAP ArchiveLink is centrally integrated in the DMS and all applications with object
links to the DMS are therefore linked to SAP ArchiveLink.
Via MC (Message Control): MM, SD,...
The integration of SAP ArchiveLink in message control allows outgoing documents to
be stored.
Via SAPconnect and the Business Workplace: Faxes
Inbound faxes can be processed directly in the Business Workplace, stored and
linked with business objects without having to be printed first.
Generic Object Services
For R/3 Release 4.0A, generic object services are provided for four SAP ArchiveLink
functions via the system menu for all SAP applications.
From the business objects implemented in the SAP applications, four SAP ArchiveLink functions
can be executed in all applications and independently of which application is involved:
You can display the hit list of stored documents
You can assign stored documents subsequently to a business object.
You can store documents in dialog
You can create a bar code for a business object
These functions are integrated into all SAP applications via object services. There is no need for
special function modules to be integrated in the applications. For more information, see Generic
Object Services (Extern).
For these functions to work smoothly, object orientation in the SAP application and
support of object services are important.
For more information, see Business Context Facilities and Generic Object
Relationships (Extern).
Business Applications
MM
The following documents relating to purchasing in MM can be stored:
Outgoing purchasing documents
Requests for quotation
Purchase orders
Scheduling agreements
Forecast delivery schedules
Contracts

Storing Lists in the Report Tree (BC)
20 April 2001
Storing Lists in the Report Tree (BC)
Use
This section describes the storing of lists generated by executing reports in report trees. The
process is not application-specific and is usually possible for any list unless storing is specifically
prohibited in the program.
Users can access reports that they require in the hierarchical structure of the report tree easily
from all applications, via general report selection in the SAP information system.
The SAP standard report tree contains several standard reports for all applications. To access
reports from a particular application, you must expand the structure until you reach a list of
reports on the lowest level. Here you select and execute the required report. You can display the
result on the screen or print it via the spool system.
Companies can configure the standard report tree to suit their requirements. For example, you
can add your own reports or pre-generated lists and even change the entire structure.

Storing Business Workplace Documents
22 April 2001
Storing Business Workplace Documents
Use
Documents stored in the Business Workplace (Extern) are usually stored in the R/3 database (PC
documents and binary documents can also be stored in an HTTP content server). To save
memory space in the database, you can store documents in an external storage system using
SAP ArchiveLink. The content of the documents that you have stored using SAP ArchiveLink is
then deleted from the database.
You can only retrieve Workplace documents stored using SAP ArchiveLink from the
external storage system, from within the R/3 System. Direct access within the
storage system is not possible.

Preparation and Customizing
To store documents from the Business Workplace, a content server must be maintained for the

ArchiveLink.
To perform mass archiving of Workplace documents, you need authorization (Extern) for
Workplace administration. This authorization is contained in the role SAP_BPT_USER.
Activities
Proceed as described in Mass Archiving (Extern).
The procedure for displaying and changing documents stored in the archive is no different for the
user than the procedure for documents stored in the R/3 database. Calling documents from the
archive usually takes longer, however.

The procedure Store for entry later with document parking is different to other storage
methods. Under this procedure, processing is even more automated than it would otherwise be.
The accounting clerk responsible for parking documents receives an incoming document (an
invoice for example) via SAP Business Workflow. In the entry transaction to which the invoice
is subject, the clerk can park this document using the existing incoming document. He or she can
then send the parked invoice together with the incoming document for further processing
(approval or additional investigation) to the relevant colleague. This colleague can then complete
processing and post the invoice.

SAP ArchiveLink - Scenarios in Applications (BC-SRV-ARL) SAP AG
Business Background (SD)
52 April 2001
Business Background (SD)
The Sales and Distribution application component contains an SAP ArchiveLink function that
provides sales personnel with a quick and efficient means of optically archiving and processing a
wide range of incoming documents including inquiries, purchase orders, contracts, and
complaints. SAP ArchiveLink offers easy online access to these archived documents during the
planning, processing, and analyzing of business transactions in Sales and Distribution.
The SAP ArchiveLink interface supports the following archiving scenarios for incoming
documents in SD:
Early archiving
Late archiving
Late archiving using bar codes
Simultaneous archiving
Early Archiving
In the early archiving scenario, incoming paper documents are archived in the R/3 System before
an SD document is created.
In early archiving, the archiving process usually begins in a central mailroom where a designated
person opens, presorts, prepares, and records (scans) the incoming mail. Once an incoming
document is scanned and an incoming document type is assigned to it, the system triggers the
SAP Business Workflow to notify the authorized employee(s) that an incoming document has
been received and is due to be processed. When the employee accesses the archived
document, the system automatically calls up the relevant business transaction, such as Create
sales order, according to the incoming document type. After the employee creates and saves the
SD document, the system automatically assigns the archived document to it.
For a detailed description of early archiving, see Early Archiving (SD) (Seite 54).
Late Archiving
In the late archiving scenario, incoming paper documents are archived in the R/3 System and
assigned to existing Sales and Distribution documents.
In late archiving, an employee processes an original document directly from paper or carries out
a sales activity before receiving an original document. At a later point in time, the original
document is scanned into the system and archived as a facsimile. It is then assigned to the
existing SD document by:
The person at the archiving station who scans the original documents
The person responsible for processing the SD document
As in the scenario for early archiving, the archiving process usually takes place in a central
location at the company.
For a detailed description of late archiving, see Late Archiving (SD) (Seite 55).
Late Archiving Using Bar Codes
Late archiving using bar codes is a special form of late archiving. In this case, however, a bar
code is attached to the incoming document either in the mail room or at the time of processing.
SAP AG SAP ArchiveLink - Scenarios in Applications (BC-SRV-ARL)
Business Background (SD)

An SD document is created from the original document whose bar code ID is linked to the SD
document number. Later, the original document is scanned into the system which recognizes the
bar code ID and automatically makes the proper assignment to the SD document.
For a detailed description of late archiving using bar codes, see Late Archiving Using Bar Codes
(SD) (Seite 56).
Simultaneous Archiving
Simultaneous archiving is a special form of early archiving in which the incoming document is
scanned into the system, optically archived and, at the same time in another window, the
corresponding SD document is created or changed. The system does not activate SAP
Business Workflow in this case; no mail is sent.

Early Archiving (SD)
The following steps describe a typical scenario in which incoming paper documents are archived
before a Sales and Distribution document is created:
1. A clerk in the central mail room of a company receives a letter from a customer who wishes
to buy several products.
2. The clerk scans the letter into a scanning system.
The system displays the letter in the scan dialog window.
3. Using the SAP ArchiveLink interface in the R/3 System, the clerk or another designated
employee selects the function for early archiving and chooses an appropriate incoming
document type for the scanned document, for example, the general description Customer
response to a sales activity, SDIACTRESP.
4. The clerk confirms the assignment of the incoming document type.
This triggers a workflow in which a mail is sent to the employee who is responsible for
creating sales documents, in this case Mr. Jones in the Sales department.
All employees who are to be notified by SAP Business Workflow must first be listed
in the companys organizational structure (see Customizing for SAP Business
Workflow).
5. Mr. Jones receives the work item in his integrated inbox. When he calls up the work item for
processing, a dialog box appears in which Mr. Jones can confirm or overwrite th

Addition of custom links on Project Details screen to update Project

Hi,
I request help to implement a customization in Ms Project Server 2010. I would like to add a custom link on lefthand side menu of Project Details page. The link would display a page with key fields. On entering information in the fields and clicking Submit,
a custom code that triggers MS SharePoint 2010 workflow should be triggered.
The user triggering the workflow will only have read access to the Project. I would like to get technical information and code snippets to implement the requirement. Any help in this regard would be appreciated.

Hi,
I'm not a developer thus I'll let other folks jump in but I'd have 2 comments:
If the user triggering the workflow needs to enter values in custom fields and do kind of a save operation as per your description, he cannot have only read access to the project. He needs a read-write access.
Note that folks on this forum kindly give on their spare time to help the community about concerns, questions and issues on Project. What you are asking for looks like more to a consultation request (due to the fact that you are not yet facing any issues
since you haven't even started working on it), meaning what we do in our daily job (and are paid for). Hope some colleagues can anyway give you some tracks to start.
Hope this helps,

Custom link on top

Hello,
Does anyone know how to create a custom link aligned with the dashboard names on top, (aligned with My Dashboard, etc)
But the custom link should not have a dashboard page... It should only be a link to another url...
so clicking on the url will open up a new url (IE window)...but the originating window should still be in the current view...
Thank you so much,
Janne

Hi Janne,
The most non-invasive way to do this would be the following.
1. Create a dummy dashboard called "My Custom Link"
2. Write a javascript that searched the html page for that specific link and updated the href attribute to the link you want it to be and also set the target="_blank".
3. Put this javascript in a text object in your dashboard with HTML enabled. Or you could throw it in the customMessage folder and have it automatically appended to the buttom of every dashboard page. I've made a post Re: get hit count of a page or a dashboard (usage tracking) about which files to modify in order to include custom javascripts in all your dashboard pages.
The other option is a little more invasive. You'd need to dig through the xml message files to locate the one's that dynamically build up the Dashboard links. Then you would have to modify this to include you static link. That could get dicey because having a static link jammed in with the dynamic links could cause formatting issues.
Hope this helps!

How to configure a custom link in ESS for LTA?

I have a requirement to display a pop-up alv report, once user click on a link "Leave_Details" in ESS. I am able to display pop-up alv but background screen is empty as its a separate WD application however I want that as soon as user selects any row from that popup alv it should be fetched and displayed on the LTA screen of Portal. It seems link is not configured so its displaying blank background screen while for other standard links this screen is displayed.
Kindly help in this how we can display a custom link in ESS and after fetching any single record it should be closed and single row would be displayed in LTA screen.
Here the background ESS screen is blank for custom link displaying this pop-up alv.
For other standard links ESS screen is displaying.

Hi Samuli,
Thanks for your reply however here I am not asking how to create popup, it has already created however my question is, how to configure the link used to display that popup alv?
As shown in the screen as soon as user clicks on the given link shown in below screenshot this popup is displayed,
and after clicking on this link, below screen is displayed
Here background screen is empty whereas it should display the ESS screen in the background, so as soon as user select any row from the popup alv, i'll pass the data into ESS screen using BADI.
Kindly revert with possible solution.
