External reference of data in numbers

I wondered if it was possible to reference an external excel file into tables in numbers. Like the get external data option in excel.

No, it's not even possible to reference an external Numbers document. You can go to the Numbers menu and Submit feedback asking for this option in a future release.

Creating Complaints/Returns from external reference for Billing Documents.

Hi Experts,
I have question regarding Creating Complaints/Returns from external reference.
My requirement is to fetch data for Billing Type, Billing Documents and other related from ECC system and to create Complaints/Returns using the same in Web UI.
Is there any SPRO configuration as such so that we can pinpoint to the ECC system where it should fetch the data or is there be a custom development involved for the Drop down lists in Web UI?
I know about the BADI CRM_COPY_BADI_EXTERN which is triggered when creating using reference, but I am not able to see where the method SEARCH_HELP_FOR_EXTERN_DOC or GET_SEARCH_HELP are triggered.
I have gone through many forums within SDN but not able to find any solution. Please help!
Regards,
Mahesh

Hi Ly,
I wouldn't be able to share the code with you, but I would ask you to check with the functional counterpart regarding the important fields that are to be copied.
What I did in my case is, based on the Billing document number passed from CRM in the RFC I hit the tables VBRK and VBRP for header and item data respectively.
For pricing I passed the relevant fields from KONV table (KSCHL, KWERT, KAWRT etc..)
For document flow VBFA.
For partner VBPA.
I faced issues only with pricing as there were many settings and pricing routine logic differences between CRM and ERP.

ABAP Shared Objects - External Reference

Hi,
I am using ABAP SHared Objects (SHMA and SHMM) as data persistence between 2 BSP Applications
I want to create a generic Root class with one attribute that is TYPE REF TO OBJECT. The idea is to store any class instance in this attribute of the Root class so as to AVOID creating a seperate Shared AREA for each Class...
WHen I try to put this generic Root Class in the shared area via detach_commit(), it gives a exception that there are External references in the Shared area which should be closed first
Does this mean u cannot have a instance variable as an attribute in your ROOT Class.
Thanks

2012: Execute Package Task (external reference) Very Slow in SSDT

Hi All,
I have 4 packages which I've deployed using the package deployment model to the MSDB package store.
Configuration setup is System Env Var pointing at SSIS Configurations table that populates the connection string of my SSISConfig data source. Source/Dest configurations are in the SSIS Configuration table.
I have a 'master' package that executes the 4 packages in parallel using the Execute Package control flow task (external reference, SSIS Package Store)
When I execute this master package in SSDT it takes 1minute 56 seconds to finish. All the execute package tasks seem to hang until the last few sec then finish one after the other. It's the same if execute one of the Execute Package Task items individually.
It just hangs there for nearly 2 min then rushes through its work (i've verified by looking at the destination tables; nothing happens until the end).
But the packages executed directly in ssdt take 2-3 sec to execute.
I've deployed the master package to the server and executed it via SSMS. It takes <3 sec.
I've RDPed into the ssis box and it's the same. Executing the packages individually or the master package in dtexecui takes less than 3 sec.
Something's going wrong inside SSDT (some kind of timeout? but there are no error msgs or warning) that's making it take nearly 2 minutes.
Have others experienced this? Have I misconfigured something? The env var has been working on my local machine since last week and i've restarted many times since then, so I'm positive SSDT is using the 'current' version of the env var.
Jakub @ Adelaide, Australia

Very strange. The sysssislogs are the same for any method of execution, but there's a 5 sec delay for each step when executing via SSDT

Look at the times. It's going up in exact 5sec increments! The package takes about 3 sec to run when the master package is executed via dtexecUI outside SSDT. The log looks "normal" in those instances as well; the end times are more randomised
This is with SP1 CU8 installed.

Importing WSDL with external references issue

Hi guys,
pls help me on this:
I have a WSDL file which referes to external data types. Obviously, if I want to create a message mapping I can't see the WSDL data type. How are such situations resolved? How to import external types into PI?
Thx, A.

HI,
You have to inport the WSDL alongwith all its external references.
You can refer the following threads:

UOM internal external reference in classification

How is UoM necessary for the calculation that supports your sourcing decisions as well as for your declarations to the authorities?
Can anyone help with the UOM functionality for classification - why is it necessary to maintain Internal/external reference. Does the UOM overwrite UOM in ECC? What is the purpose of this UOM?

Hi Padma,
In each country, the Customs Tariff was primarily developed as a scale of charges for moving raw materials and traded goods across the borders. However, and especially since the introduction of the Harmonised Tariff system (HS) in 1988, it has become a very convenient way of classifying and codifying goods in a language-independent way.
For that reason, other uses have been found for the Tariff; notably the production of Trade Statistics. Every country is able to - and indeed does - collect and publish statistics on the movement of goods to and from other regions and countries, based primarily on the Import and Export declarations made and the Tariff (or "Commodity") codes assigned therein. The importance of these Trade Statistics is one of the main reasons why Commodity Codes are required when making Export Declarations, even though no duties are liable on those movements.
The duty payable on Import is most usually based on the value of the goods. But the value can (and does) vary greatly with time, so value is not necessarily a particularly good measure for statistical comparison. Instead, the quantity of goods moved is a far better comparator for that purpose, and when you hear that "imports from China rose 23% last year", that figure is almost certainly based on quantity, not value. For that reason, every Tariff Code is assigned at least one Unit of Measure.
By far the most popular UoM is the net mass (or weight) of the commodity being moved. For most commodities, net mass is the only measure requested, so for consistency, most countries require it to be declared for ALL imported and exported items. Due to that, any other units of measure are generally referred to as "supplementary" or "special" units. The two other popular UoM are volume (e.g. Litres) for liquids, and Number of Pieces. The latter UoM is particularly used for high-technology goods where both the value and weight are falling over time.
Coming back to Customs Duties; the most popular determination is by proportion of the assessed value - also known as "ad valorum" duty. But for low-cost goods - particularly foodstuffs - duty may be chargeable according to the quantity imported - known as "specific" duty. For some commodities, a combination of ad valorum and specific duties is charged. Where the duty is not ad valorum, the quantity in the Customs UoM is needed in order to calculate the import duty, which often has a significant influence on sourcing decisions.
SAP software - both ECC and GTS - provides functionality to handle Customs UoM. Since the net weight is a standard field in all logistics transactions, most Tariff Codes do not need anything extra. But where supplementary units are specified, those UoM need to be assigned to the codes so that the Customs Declarations respond by ensuring that the associated quantities are provided. In some countries, more than one additional UoM may be specified for some codes. For example, some years ago, batteries used to need a declaration of weight, number of pieces, and number of cells. SAP ECC can accommodate up to 2 additional UoM, and SAP GTS can accommodate up to 3.
In some countries, it is neccessary to state both the Quantity and the UoM in the Customs Declaration. In others, the UoM for the supplementary unit is assumed, since it is mandated in the Tariff. Where it must be stated, the UoM codes often do not correspond to the ISO codes so translation is needed. SAP GTS provides that mechanism for matching Customs (external) UoM to SAP (internal) UoM. If those relationships are maintained, then the system is able automatically to express the Product quantity in the Customs UoM.
In SAP GTS, specifying a supplementary unit for a Tariff or Commodity Code automatically opens up an additional field in the Declaration item screen when the Product has been classified with that Code. And the standard incompletion code can ensure that the field is populated before the Declaration may be sent to the Customs Authority.
Data Providers understand the need for supplementary UoM, and their Tariff lists include them. However, problems may occasionally arise when there are regional differences in the assigned units. For example, in the EU, although the Customs Tariff is shared by all Member States, adjustments may be made on a national basis for Excise goods. In those cases, it may be necessary to edit the data-files to meet the specific regional requirements.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Dave

Format of date and numbers

Hi,
in Italy the format of date is DD/MM/YYYY e the formato of numbers is NNN,DD (DD means Decimal).
I use Excel for IPAD but when I write for instance 28/03/2015 the field shows 03/28/2015, the same problem is for numbers where the comma and the dot are inverted.
How do I change the format of date and numbers?
Thank you in advance.
Max

The general format of the date is tied to the language...use US english, get US date formatting.
You may want to poke around in excel's settings. I know the desktop version allows you to alter the date formatting, but I'm not sure if the iPad app has that. Look for 'cell formatting' in the settings and see if it's alterable.
If not, you can try to make your template on a PC, then put that excel onto your iPad and see if it honors the cell formatting already in place.

List View still displays dates as numbers after 2.1 Hotfix

Hi
Just tried the List View component after installing Fix Pack 2.1 Hot Fix. I put a list view component on the canvas, selected 3 datesone for each header, changed the Appearance - Header to Date and then hit preview. The first header worksshows the dates but the other two headers show numbers, not dates.
The documentation shows that this was fixed, see below
ADAPT01260598 (List View displays
dates as numbers)
Description:
The header area of List View displays date values as numbers.
New Behavior:
This issue is resolved.

No, I was just wondering since I have a second device on TMobile US and haven't gotten the update. I loaded this OS almost a month ago when it leaked on the Internet.

External Reference number not copied in Service Confirmation

Hi,
We are on CRM 5.0 SP11. We have Mobile Service 5.0 SP11.
In Mobile Service in the Service Order creation screen we have a window to input External reference number. When we create a Service Confirmation as a followup document of Service Order, SAP by default only allows to copy Reference Object,Subject and notes (both header and item level) to the Confirmation.
Does anyone have idea how we can copy the External Reference number to Confirmation when we do followup to Service Orders on mobile.
This functionality works fine on Enterprise.
Thanks,
Yatin

Hello,
             The external number won't be copied by standard as Wolhfard said they are different documents.
You need to code this to make this copy from service order to Service confirmation.
Open your Mobile Application Studio and make following changes.
Open the BusinessObject "BOMSVHelper" and view the code. Go to the Method "CopySrvTransHeader" write the following code in it.
Find the code
UserName = _unwind(BusinessRootObject.UserDataDictionary.GetData("USERNAME"))
and paste the following code below it.
        Dim servconfobj As BusinessObject = bocopysrvtrans.SalesInfo
        Dim servtransobj As BusinessObject = orderheaderobj.SalesInfo
        servconfobj.SetAttribute("PoNumberSold", servtransobj.GetAttribute("PoNumberSold"))
        servconfobj.SetAttribute("PoDateSold", servtransobj.GetAttribute("PoDateSold"))

How do I create a chart in Keynote that auto-updates from data in Numbers?

Hello all! So, there are lots of answer to this for iWork'09, but I haven't found them for the current version of Work.
What I'd like to do is take data from Numbers and create a chart in Keynote that would then auto-update if I edited the data in Numbers. Put another way, the Keynote chart data would 'live' in Numbers - every time I edit the Numbers data, I'd like those changes to reflect in Keynote. Any thoughts on how to do this outside of always cutting and pasting from Numbers to Keynote?
Thanks!!

Thanks Gary. I thought I was crazy. I remember that it used to be available - bummer that it's not now.

How to check circular reference in data of millions of rows

Hi all,
I am new as an oracle developer.
I have a table(say table1) of hierarchical data with columns child_id and parent_id. The table has around 0.5 million records. There are around 0.2 million root level records are present.
I need to update some (the number variies on different conditions, might differ from 50K to 0.4 million) of the parent_ids from other table only if that do not cause any circular reference in data of table1.
I am using Oracle9i.
The approach I have tried is:
I copied all data from table1 to a work table table3. Update the parent_id on columns that matches the condition and updated a column source_table to table2.
I copied all the child_id from table2 that are to be updated into another table table4 and built tree for each of those childs. If it builds the tree successfully updated a column is_circular in the table3 to 0 and then deleted the child_id from table4.
This whole process needs to run recursively until no tree is built successfully in an iteration.
But this process is running slow and at the rate it is executing it would run for days for the 0.3 million records.
Please suggest a better way to do this.
The code I am using is :
INSERT /*+ append parallel (target,5) */
INTO table3 target
select /*+ parallel (src,5) */
child_id, parent_id, 'table1' source_table,null
from table1 src;
INSERT INTO table4
select distinct child_id, parent_id
from table2
where status_cd is null;
commit;
Update dtable3 a
set (parent_id,source_table) = (select parent_id,'table2' source_table
from table4 b
where b.child_id = a.child_id);
WHILE v_loop_limit<>v_new_count
LOOP
select count(1)
into v_loop_limit
     from table4;
-+-----------------------------------------------------------
--| You need to actually traverse the tree in order to
--| detect circular dependencies.
+-----------------------------------------------------------
For i in 1 .. v_new_count

Hello,
First off, if you're so new to a technology why do you brush off the first thing an experienced, recognized "guru" tells you? Take out that WHEN OTHERS ! It is a bug in your code, period.
Secondly, here is some code to try. Notice that the result depends on what order you do the updates, that's why I run the same code twice but in ASCENDING or DESCENDING order. You can get a circular reference from a PAIR of updates, and whichever comes second is the "bad" one.drop table tab1;
create table TAB1(PARENT_ID number, CHILD_ID number);
create index I1 on TAB1(CHILD_ID);
create index I2 on TAB1(PARENT_ID);
drop table tab2;
create table TAB2(PARENT_NEW number, CHILD_ID number);
insert into TAB1 values (1,2);
insert into TAB1 values (1,3);
insert into tab1 values (2,4);
insert into TAB1 values (3,5);
commit;
insert into TAB2 values(4,3);
insert into TAB2 values(3,2);
commit;
begin
for REC in (select * from TAB2 order by child_id ASC) LOOP
merge into TAB1 O
using (select rec.child_id child_id, rec.parent_new parent_new from dual) n
on (O.CHILD_ID = N.CHILD_ID)
when matched then update set PARENT_ID = PARENT_NEW
where (select COUNT(*) from TAB1
    where PARENT_ID = n.CHILD_ID
    start with CHILD_ID = n.PARENT_NEW
    connect by CHILD_ID = prior PARENT_ID
    and prior PARENT_ID <> n.CHILD_ID) = 0;
end LOOP;
end;
select distinct * from TAB1
connect by PARENT_ID = prior CHILD_ID
order by 1, 2;
rollback;
begin
for REC in (select * from TAB2 order by child_id DESC) LOOP
merge into TAB1 O
using (select rec.child_id child_id, rec.parent_new parent_new from dual) n
on (O.CHILD_ID = N.CHILD_ID)
when matched then update set PARENT_ID = PARENT_NEW
where (select COUNT(*) from TAB1
    where PARENT_ID = n.CHILD_ID
    start with CHILD_ID = n.PARENT_NEW
    connect by CHILD_ID = prior PARENT_ID
    and prior PARENT_ID <> n.CHILD_ID) = 0;
end LOOP;
end;
select distinct * from TAB1
connect by PARENT_ID = prior CHILD_ID
order by 1, 2;One last thing, be sure and have indexes on child_id and parent_id in your main table!

Using excel sheets with externa references

I was hopping someone could point me somewhere to begin here.
What if I am implementing CM solution in a financial department, which strongly uses excel spreadsheets, which means they're going to need external references from a file, to another .xls for example. Is there any thing about that matter in UCM?

How do you create a column of sequenced dates in Numbers

How do you create a column of sequenced dates in Numbers without typing in each date? For example: 01/05/15, 01/12/15, 01/19/15, 01/26/15, 02/02/15, etc.

Hi Cha Ling,
Another way,
Enter your first two dates that show the desired interval- i.e. 01/05/15 and 01/12/15.
Select both cells and choose fill from the contextual menu.
Drag down to fill your column.

Resolving External References ....in a package

hi all..
Resolving External References in IR Subprogram
CREATE PROCEDURE above_salary
(emp_id IN NUMBER)
AUTHID CURRENT_USER
AS
emps NUMBER;
BEGIN
-- External reference is resolved in schema of current user:
SELECT * FROM employees
WHERE employee_id = emp_actions.num_above_salary(emp_id);
-- External reference is resolved in schema of owner of above_salary:
emps := emp_actions.num_above_salary(emp_id);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE
('Number of employees with higher salary: ' || TO_CHAR(emps));
END;
CALL above_salary(120);
what are the security reasons for which the references is behaving as above..
thanks in advance
gud day

SELECT * FROM employees
WHERE employee_id = emp_actions.num_above_salary(emp_id);
in the above statement package emp_actiosns called indirectly from a select statement ....and while executing the package above_salary which is calling emp_actions..
the resolution of the name is by currentuser.emp_actions....(INVOKER RIGHTS)
BUT..
emps := emp_actions.num_above_salary(emp_id);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE
('Number of employees with higher salary: ' || TO_CHAR(emps));
in this statement while executing the above salary package .....the package empaction is resolved as owner.emp_action(DEFINER RIGHTS)
WHY IS THIS DIFFERENCE IMPORTANT..WHAT ARE THE SECURITY REASONS BEHIND IT
