Extractor: hide Vs field only selection

Hello BW experts,
in datasource properties field in the R/3; what is the difference between the fields 'hide' vs 'field only'.
suggestions appreciated.
Thanks,
BWer

Hi,
Hide field
You should set this indicator to exclude an extract structure field from the data transfer. As a result of your action, the field is no longer made available in BW when setting the transfer rules and generating the transfer structure.
if u dont want to see this this ..u set this field u cant see in the BW which is available in extrac structure
Field only known in exit
You can enhance data by extending the extract structure for a DataSource using fields in append structures.
The indicator Field only known in Exit is set for fields of an append structure. In other words, by default these fields are not passed onto the extractor from the field list and selection table.
Deselect the indicator Field Only Known in Exit to enable the Service API to pass on the append structure field to the extractor together with the fields of the delivered extract structures in the field list as well as in the selection table.

Selection, Hide, Inversion, Field only

Hi All,

2)Hide
3)Invesion
4)Field only on customer exit.

Shwetha Reddy.

hi,
1.Selection of a Field of a DataSource
Selection field for a DataSource
Use
Set this indicator to use a field from the DataSource as the selection field in the Scheduler for BW.
Due to the properties of the DataSource, not every field can be used as a selection field. In this case, the property is not changeable.
2. Hide Extract Structure Field
Use
To exclude a field in the extraction structure from the data transfer, set this flag. The field is then no longer available in BW for determining transfer rules and therefore cannot be used for generating transfer structures.
3. inversion
Field Inverted When Cancelled (*-1)
The field is inverted in the case of reverse posting. This means that it is multiplied by (-1). For this, the extractor has to support a delta record transfer process, in which the reverse posting is identified as such.
If the option Field recognized only in Customer Exit is chosen for the field, this field is not inverted. You cannot activate or deactivate inversion if this option is set.
4. field only
Flag Relevant RNOTECREL
The indicator Field known only in Exit is set for the fields in an append structure, meaning that by default, these fields are not passed to the extractor in the field list and the selection table.
Procedure
Remove the Field known only in Exit indicator, to get the Service API to pass the field in the append structure to the extractor
hope this help you

How to hide input fields on selection screen using variant attribute

Hello all,
I want to know how to hide input fields on selection screen using variant attribute conpletely.
As you know, when setting the attribute of variant "Hide field" checked, the field is temporarily hidden, but when clicking "All Selections(F7)" button on the selection screen, the fileds become appeared.
I want to hide the field completely. Di you know how to do ?
Thank you for your support.
Regards,
Hideki Kozai

Use this attribute hide field and save the variant. Then create transaction for this program setting default variant for parameter Start with variant . The user who runs it will have it by defualt set.
Otherwise
in PBO simply use LOOP at screen and output = 0 for this field. This will ensure that field is invisible in any case.

How do I create radio buttons which hide certain fields when selected?

I have a set of two radio buttons, "Yes" and "No"
When the "Yes" radio button is selected, I would like the "Bank Name", "Branch Number", "Institution Number" and the "Account Number" field to all be blocked from entering content into them.
When the "No" button is selected, I would like for all of these fields to be available to be written in.
I can do this currently with check boxes, but the problem with those is that both boxes can be checked at the same time, which is problematic.
How can I make it so that the radio buttons control whether or not the fields can be written in!
Thanks very much!

Yes, I have done this. The buttons are mutually exclusive. The are in the group "Vendor EFT" - one is named "Yes", one is named "No".
When the "Yes" radio button is selected, I would like the "Bank Name", "Branch Number", "Institution Number" and the "Account Number" field to all be blocked from entering content into them.
When the "No" button is selected, I would like for all of these fields to be available to be written in.
Not sure what code needs to be written for this.

No hide fields or select fields in SAP Query Extractor?

HI Gurus,
I want to generate a data source, extraction data from SAP Query.
Now I want to hide some fields or to mark some fields as relevant for selection.
But after saving my settings are unavaiable...?
Does somebody have an idea? Is this standard when extracting from Query or is this maybe an OSS...?
Thanks

Just logoff and Login again, then check it.

What is meant by Selection, Hide,Inversion and Field only during Datasource

Dear Mates,
During Datasource Generation in LO extraction , I can see the tabs
Slection
Hidefield
Inversion
Fild only.
Can any on please explain me elobarately each of them.
Thanks,
Sudha

If you do a F1 on each you'll have a description, but here is a summary:
Selection: You want to be able to select a value in this characteristic through the infopackage
Hide: You don't want to be able to see this field.
Inversion: For a key figure, change sign. 1 becomes -1 and vice versa.
Field Only: Field is available only for user exits and such but is not extracted.
Hope this helps.

Not able to select Field only option

Dear All,
I created a generic datasource based on a infoset query and enhanced the extract structure with a component zzvalov (amount). The idea is to fetch the amount from a different table writinga n user exit.
Now, the filed ZZVALOV is by default in Hide mode in the extractor field selections. When I try to uncheck the Hidel field and select Field only option and save , I get an error message that OLTP has still some errors.
Can anyone help to overcome this error. Is it mandatory to have the exit in place before I uncheck the Hide filed and select Field only ioption ? I did not get any warnings while activating the extract structure as well.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Srinivas

When creating a fillable PDF form can I add a password to only selected fields?

I am creating a fillable form which will require data entry from several different people before being returned to my office. There are certain fields on the form that need to be restricted to personnel in my office only. I have tried to accomplish this restriction many different ways but have been unsuccessful.
The closest I have come to accomplishing this restriction is by adding a "For HRO Only" button which I can use to hide certain fields from personnel outside of my office and unhide the text field when the button is clicked. This would be perfect if I could add a password to the button. Unfortunately this is either not possible or I haven't figured out how to do it which means that personnel outside of my office can still access the fields with a click of a button.
The only other way I have thought of to accomplish this restriction is to mark those fields as "read only" but it seems as though it would be very time consuming for personnel in my office to complete the form due to the fact that they would have to open "edit form", open the properties for each field requiring their input, and uncheck "read only" for each one.
Any help/options/ideas you can provide will be greatly appreciate. Thank you!

Thank you so much for the quick response. This will be a huge help! I hate to be a bother, but can you tell me the steps to create the script or give me a reference/resouce to use? I have used adobe products quite a bit, but this is my first time creating a PDF Fillable Form that will be distributed for use by several people so I am a little lost.
Also, I seem to be running into one more problem that I am hoping you can help me figure out. On the form there is a question for the recipient to answer by checking one of two boxes, yes or no. Depending on the answer an action is initiated. This feature works perfectly, however the issue is that when the recipient choses "yes" he/she is directed to fill out four additional fields that I currently have set as "required", but when the recipient choses "No" the four additional fields are hidden yet still required. This becomes an issue when the recipient has completed the form and tries to submit the form. An error message pops up notifying the user there are required fields that are empty and must be completed before submission.
My thought is (in a perfect world) one of these two options would be ideal:
1. When the "No" option is chosen the four additional fields are changed from required to not required, or
2. When the "No" option is chose the four additional required fields are autopopulated with NA.
Either remedy would work just fine, however I am open to suggestions... Again thank you so much for your help with my previous question and thank you in advance for any information/help/advice you can provide in regards to my second question.

How can I get the tab key to select text fields only?

Since upgrading to Firefox 4 on Windows, the tab key functions differently. How do I change it so that it only selects text input fields?

The answer is: The bug is in the UI. Speech recognition was enabled, by default it uses the bare escape key as a "mic on" indicator, and it does not leave any trace in the keybord configuration. So that is the bug. It needs to leave a trace there, a la: "X Listen-for-voice-command ^" under Mission Control.

PDF forms have problems displaying text and only appears when the field is selected

Hello,
I created some pdf forms to distribute to the company clients. But we are having some people complaining about the text visibility. When they have work in team, the pdf that they receive from a third person often appears unfill or without text, the text is only visible when the field is selected. I need to find a solution for this because our company products are base on this forms.
If there is any addition information that I should add to understand what is happening and how to fix it, I'll be happy to write it.
In the company, we all have mac and the forms where created innitially in Adobe acrobat 9 pro, but we have now Adobe acropabt XI pro.
The users have both Mac and Windows systems.
Thank you,

This is usually caused by the form being filled-in and saved by a Mac user who is using the Preview application to view the PDF. More information is here: http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/885/cpsid_88564.html
It is a good idea to inform your users that Adobe Reader (or Acrobat) should be used to work with the forms.

Setting only the TO field on the Created on Field in Selection screen to Current date

We have a requirement to Set only the To date in the Created on Field in Selection screen to the Current date, I have tried through Dynamic variable option to set the Date calculation but I am able to see Options to set the Current date to From or From and To Created on Date fields instead of setting the Current date only to To created on Field.
We are in 4.7 and are not supported with user defined variables, Appreciate your inputs on this.

How to achieve this? Thanks in advance!

You can make use of jquery for the same. Add script editor webpart on the page and access the dropdown value and based on the value you get, show or hide the fields. Below are some pointers.
