FDM Validation Issue

Hi All,
When Performing the second step in workflow (Validate) the fish turns gold for success but returns the error message "Automation error" what can be the reason and what is the solution?
Thanks

Hi,
Check Oracle Support FDM Validate Step Returns "Automation Error" [ID 1301133.1]:
Applies to:
Hyperion Financial Data Quality Management - Version 11.1.2.0.00 and later
Microsoft Windows (32-bit)
Symptoms
When performing the second step of the FDM workflow (validate) the Fish turns gold for success but returns the error message "Automation Error".
Cause
FDM is currently unable to integrate with Hyperion Financial Management successfully to perfrom the intersection validation. The integration failure is due to the HFM Adapter not being configured to run as the FDM Service account. In order to successfully integrate with HFM the FM11x-G5-D adapter must be registered and configured with the FDM Service account. Currently the adapter has not been configured.
Solution
A) Login to the FDM application via the workbench client on the FDM application server
B) Go to File menu and choose Register Adapter
C) Browse out to Adapter folder and register 'fdmFM11XG5D.dll'
D) Expand Target System Adapters > Right-Click on the FM11x-G5-D adapter and choose "Configure"
E) Enter the FDM windows service account username/password/ confirm password/domain and click OK.

Using Tabs in Generated Pages - Validation Issue

Hi,
We're using JHS 10.1.3.0.97 and are using the "stacked" regions functionality
to make the form less cluttered.
The problem we're having now is that whenever a user wants to
view the items on a tab (that is not currently the selected one),
a validation issue is thrown saying that all the mandatory fields need to be entered first.
Is there a way to avoid this message and postpone the validation until the
user clicks on the "Save" button?
Regards,
Cliff

Cliff,
I am sorry, in the 10.1.3.1 release we switch off server-side model validation on a partial page request.
It is not possible to switch off the client-side validation, because the only way to do this, is by setting immediate=true on the tabs. However, with this setting JSF will skip the Model Update phase, which means that any changes you made to the tab region you are going to leave by clicking another tab, would be lost.
The only alternative is by creatign a custom templates and generating the required items with showRequired="true" instead of required="true" which means required items are never checked client-side.

Validation issues with form (was: Validation)

I am having validation issues with my form. Even after I put in a name and last name it says the entries are invalid. Could this be a hosting problem? www.bussmanncomputers.net/Nx

FDM validation report issue

Hi,
I am working on validation reports in FDM.
My logic works fine and I see result by all Entities in Validation report.
I need to see result by other dimension in validation report other than Entity dimension in FDM.
Can you let me know how can we achieve this.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Thanks for the reply, I have placed the dimensions in the rule.. But when I see the report, it is getting displayed for every entity in the file that is processed in FDM.
But I want my report to have data for each Product dimension instead of Entity ie. sum by each product
Thanks in advance

FDM Validation error.

Hello,
we are getting the following error when we are trying to validate. We are on v4.0.30319 .Net framework on IE8.07. Working on 11.1.2.1 FDM version.
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
Access is denied.
Please let me know a solution for this issue.

Hello there,
That's a common issue I think which is related with the configuration of the Web server… In the Workbench, right click on the adapter name and select Options. Find the setting ' FDM Web Server'. The value here should be the web server name as displayed in the FDM URL.
For more details regarding this issue check the article FDM: Unable To Open Intersection Validation Report- Error: "Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet" (Doc ID 1346956.1)

Thanos

Validation Issue - urgent

Hi experts,
I am facing a peculiar issue with Validation Check, in Process Control.
I have done the following:
1. set the Validation Top account, in my AppSettings
2. Enable SupportsProcessManagement - in appropriate scenario
3. Manage Submission Phases is set to * - in Phase1 column - My Validation Account's submission Group is set to 1.
4. I have 4 independent Validation hierarchies, each one, having a submission group as 1, and are set in ValidationAccount, ValidationAccount2, ValidationAccount3, ValidationAccount4 respectively.
When I plot the Validation Account, in a data grid, I can see values, coming in the grid.
However, when I start Process Management, the Pass / Fail, is showing as Pass, even if there is value in the Validation Accounts
When I click on the Validation Pass / Fail icon, the Validation Report inside, shows blank - not even a Zero value - throughout the grid. As a result, the entity is able to promote to the next review level, even if Validation is not cleared.
Is there any setting, which I am missing out on, which is not showing Validation errors, whereas I can see Validation values in the Data Grid?
thanks
Never mind.. I found out the issue.. It was related to Rules and Metadata setting.

I'm also facing the same issue,may i know what changes you made in metadata.quick reply is appreciated.

Using INSERT INTO for FDM Memory Issue

All -
We configured FDM to run an integration script into our EBS instance upon the import step. It worked fine for a time, then we began running out of memory on the FDM server. Upon Oracle's suggestion, we stopped running through a record set to append and update the values to strWorkTableName and instead began using INSERT INTO. I admit, I have never needed to use the INSERT INTO way of doing things so I may be missing something bery basic.
Our integration script:
Function SQLIntegration2(strLoc, lngCatKey, dblPerKey, strWorkTableName)
'Oracle Hyperion FDM IMPORT Integration Script:

I really think the issue is that I am not telling the script where to find the Oracle tables at. I left the code in where we were using the UDL to call in the opening of the record set, but since we are doing away with the record set how do I let FDM know where to find the Oracle tables?
Thanks in advance - I've been wrestling with this for several days.
Thanks you,
Sarah

Here's a script with INSERT INTO that works fine if FDM back-end is SQL DB and it's pulling from FDMHarris data warehouse which is on SQL Server.
Problem is when FDM back-end is Oracle DB and it's pulling from FDMHarris data warehouse which is on SQL Server.
I'm assuming the INSERT INTO statement needs to be written differently, syntax wise?
Here's the error message displayed.

Document Signature - Validation Issue

This is the recent help i've been trying to get on this subject over at acrobatusers.com. You can read through the issue i'm having through here, answer that was given and my response.
Summary: Basically there are multiple text fields that are set to required, customer name, email...etc. All fields must be locked after being digitally signed (through the document signature field). When default validation pattern are used (blank) it generates an error (Customer field could not be validated). After trying regular expression script, it generates an error (Customer field could not be validated). So i tried a number of different combinations of picture clauses, and from what i'm gathering you have to know exactly how many characters are going to be typed to use that sort of validation. Which in a customer name field you have know idea what their name is going to be (unless you customize a document for each individual customer (not possible)).
If anyone could help on this problem would be a lifesaver. Thank you
::COPY OF HELP QUESTION SUBMITTED::
Apparently I'm not getting the field validation examples in the Help (F1) of Livecycle. I've been struggling to get all the fields in a collection to validate properly. Once I add a Document Signature field to the document and assign the fields to a collection, it doesn't seem to like the default validation settings if I assign the fields to 'User Input: Required' So for the name field I've tried multiple validation patterns all to no avail. My question is how to write a custom validation pattern that allows for an unknown ammount of characters in a name, email..etc. I've tried A A which only validates if the user enters J D for example but John Doe does not work. I've tried other combinations but nothing works. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
::ANSWER SUBMITTED BY COMMUNITY EXPERT::
A:There are a couple of things you need to look at. First, is the Acrobat Picture Clause Reference. You can find it and other LiveCycle references on this site
http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/xml/index_arch.html
The other thing to look at is using a JavaScript validation script with a Regular Expression. Regular Expressions are much more flexible that the picture clause at doing validation.
Answered by Thom Parker on Fri, Jul 6, 2007
::RESPONSE FROM ME BACK::
Q:After reading through the Picture Clause Reference I'm certain there is no way to validate the customer name field without first knowing how many characters will be entered in. And I'm pretty sure there is no simple way of just making it "required" without a pattern to verify against.
The Document Signature Field acts pretty weird if the text field is 'required' and there is nothing to validate it against. Which all in all I just want to make sure it is filled out. Customer Name field (First and Last name) one text field.
So I tried the regular expression route, and added it to the 'Validate' section of the text field. Still I think the problem lies in the way the Document Signature field processes the 'required' fields.
Now I noticed that this only happens if I set the document signature field to lock the required fields after digitally signing the document. This is a mandatory feature the document needs to have, along with the document signature. And the custom stamp option is not a viable solution to this either, since in my field of work everything is questioned whether or not it was altered or forged in some manner. And Custom 'Forged' stamps would not be too difficult to recreate, so that idea is out of the window.
I'm stumped on this and any suggetions as to what route to take would be greatly appreciated. I can not release a document to the customers with validation error messages popping up even though the fields are filled out. Just wouldn't be professional, and down right annoying considering it validates about 15 fields, and everyone except the date and tim

Hey Robert,
I've been having the same issue where, once digitally signed, I end up having an issue with my mandatory fields returning an error '[mandatory field name] validate failed'. Is this the sort of errors you are getting? I'm also trying to find answers on this as I've tried a few things but it hasnt worked well. One thing I did was to change the mandatory field back to optional and coded my submit button using the if clause when the submit button is pressed to check if the this mandatory field is filled in.
if ((pgDetails.txtReqBy.rawValue != null) &&(pgDetails.txtReqBy.rawValue != ""))
event.target.submitForm({cURL:"mailto:[email address]?subject=New/Edit Supplier Detail Form&body=Please find attached the completed form.",cSubmitAs:"PDF",cCharset:"utf-8"});
else
xfa.host.messageBox("Requested by field MUST be filled. Pls enter your full name.");
This seems to work fine except for one thing. If first time around, I fill the form out leaving the mandatory field blank, it returns the message "Requested by field MUST be filled. Pls enter your full name." So now I go back and fill in the mandatory field and, without navigating to another field, I click the submit button, I get the same message "Requested by field MUST be filled. Pls enter your full name." as it has not picked up the new value of the field. Any idea if there is code to make it re-read the field?
Rgds,
Jan

Spry validation issue with submit button

Hi,
I'm new to Spry but am having an issue getting it to work at all. I created a very simply form (i.e. table with Spry text field and submit button). I've read many articles and been to several forums, but I can't seem to find the issue I'm having. Basically, when I go to preview the page in a browser, the table with the Spy text field and submit button comes up fine, but when I hit the submit button, I see the page refresh and any values I had in the text field disappear, but nothing ever comes up saying "A value is required," which is what I'm looking for. This happens even if I don't have any values in the text field. Below are images of what I'm describing and also the code. I verified that the "Required" check box is checked in the SpryTextField and the submit button action is selected to "Submit Form." My setup is Win 7, DW6, & XAMPP. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Before Submit Button pressed:
Browser after button pressed: (same as above but no message saying "A value is required.")
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<body>
test
<table width="600" border="1">

      <span id="sprytextfield1">

      <input type="text" name="test" id="test" />

    </form></td>

<tr>
    <td><form id="form2" name="form2" method="post" action="">
      <input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Submit" />
    </form></td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td> </td>
</tr>
</table>
<script type="text/javascript">
var sprytextfield1 = new Spry.Widget.ValidationTextField("sprytextfield1", "email");
</script>
</body>
</html>

Do yourself a big favor and don't waste time with Spry Validation. Most modern browsers support HTML5 forms with the required attribute.
If you must placate older browsers, use jQuery validate script. It's lightweight and works when HTML5 support is missing. You can see an example below. If you hit submit with empty form fields, the required fields pop-up with messages. View source in browser to see the code.

Digital Signature validation issue in Adapter Module

Hi guys,
we have developed an adapter module for digital signature validation, unfortunately, it simetimes work, sometimes doesnt. Strange is, that the same adapter module works for one customer, while for another one doesn't.
We have sent through some "invalid" messages, which should have been valid at the client, where the module works and theu were flagged as valid. It seems the problem is caused by "special" spanish characters, because validation works for the messages where are only standard chars.
Any idea, what to check? Java version, system encoding?
Any help appreciated,
Olian

Hi,
Not really sure about what causes such issues, but if your module coding uses String and byte[] manipulation, are you using explicite encoding when declaring such types ? I remember facing strange issues with XML field values, and "forcing" encoding to "UTF-8" when appropriate, it solved all my errors (string typed object, when converted internally by the JVM, were not always represented by the same bytes object)
Hope this helps
Chris

Question : Adding a signature to a PDF programmatically with Acrobat 8 (Reader 9 validation issue)

Hi,
Please, apologyze my poor english.
I have an application that inserts a signature programmatically in a PDF document with Acrobat 8, via VB .NET, using the example provided in the Acrobat 8 SDK ("AddSignature").
The problem resides in that previous signatures in the document (signed normally via reader 8 or acrobat 8 application), now becomes INVALID, but only in Reader 9.Acrobat 8/Reader 8 considers them as "valid, with posterior changes".
The difference between the SDK example and this code resides only in the way of calling the script in .net
I call directly the AddSignature function with this code (partial), instead of calling the execution of the "ADBESDK:AddSignature" menu (this improves faster execution with no AVDOC object involved):
        AcroExchPDDoc = New Acrobat.AcroPDDoc
        Dim JsObj As New Object
        AcroExchPDDoc.Open("c:\test.pdf")
        JsObj = AcroExchPDDoc.GetJSObject
        JsObj.SetUserDigitalIDPath("/C/trabajo/DrTest.pfx")
        JsObj.SetUserPassword("testpassword")
        JsObj.AddSignature(JsObj)
        JsOb = Nothing
        AcroExchPDDoc.Save(1, "c:\result_test.pdf")
        AcroExchPDDoc.Close()
I tried to change the AcroExchPDDoc.Save() parameters for intend an incremental save instead of a fullsave, but i keep getting this situtation.
How can this be solved?? Is this a bad approach to the process??
Note that all inserted signatures trough this method are valid in Reader 9.
Any help or comment would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks Steven,
There is something I can´t undestarnd about this issue, and hope you can throw some light on it...
If I use the AddSignature method of Adobe 8 SDK by clicking on the new menu option that it creates, these inserted signatures not causes the invalidation message in Reader 9. The used script is the same, so I can´t figure out why.
Once inserted a new signature by ("my") code, it invalidates all previous "normally" inserted signatures trough the GUI, but not invalidate other signatures inserted trough this code (No matter how many signatures of this type are present in the document).
        I suppose that this means only a blank outline tree is inserted, and only the first time I apply the signature.
As an additional info, I´ve attached to this post a new pdf file with one signature normally inserted, and three signatures "code-inserted". (The "result_pdf.pdf" included in previous post, with another two code-signature).
As you can see, all except the first are valid, and any other new signatures inserted in the document (normal or code) won´t result in an invalid statement after the 1st code-insertion.

ESB File Adapter data validation issue

I have a really simple ESB process.
File Adapter Read
(XML format with XSD) --> Routing Service --> SOAP Call to BPEL Process
Quite simply, the ESB uses the File Adapter to read an XML file which has an associated XSD. The contents are then routed to a BPEL Process.
If the XML file is valid in syntax but contains an element which is not in the XSD, the file contents are pushed to the BPEL process which has validateXML set to true - thus the error is caught and handled by the BPEL process.
This is what I want to happen.
If the XML file is invalid in syntax - for example -
<TAG>hello</WRONGTAG>
The ESB process rejects the file and stops dead.
I would rather the invalid file is pushed to the BPEL so that the BPEL can handle the error.
Why?
Because my error handling in the BPEL picks up the invalid XML format and emails the users to inform them there is a problem.
Can someone help? Is this possible? Thanks.

Hello again! You are now aware of the problem as there has been a lot of conversation between myself and Dave Berry [and you!] regarding this issue.
For the rest of the readers - here is a brief summary of progress so far. Sorry but there has been so much communication that I think the best way is to direct you to various links.
If an adapter fails in ESB, then it is possible to trap these failures and handle them as documented here:
Dave Berry said:
you need to look into the adapter rejection handlers which are documented on OTN ESB page in the exception handling lesson and the adapters OTN dev resources page http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/integration/adapters/dev_support.html
I had also devised my own solution in the meantime, which involves reading the input file as opaque schema and passing this to a BPEL process which converts it to an XML document! This can then be validated and use standard BPEL error handling to find any problems in the file format etc.
See my blog for a tutorial on doing this:
http://soastuff.wordpress.com/2007/06/06/handling-opaque-datatypes-in-bpelesb/
The only problem with this at the moment is that the BPEL function ora:parseEscapedXML has a bug in it - so it fails if the XML does not comply with the XSD it tries to convert to.
This in turn causes an ORABPEL-09500 error which does not seem to get handled by the BPEL process so the process fails.
As things stand, this bug remains - though Dave Berry has been very helpful in identifying it and bringing it to Muruga's attention. Hopefully we can get a fix (?) and a workaround whilst the fix is being implemented (?)
Cheers.

APEX 4.1, SQL Query(Updateable report), Validation issue.

Hi,
I am using APEX 4.1.
I have SQL Query(Updateable report), we have created validation for the columns in this report.
The validations are working properly only for the first row of the report on submitting, the remaining rows are not getting validated.
If we check mark the rows it will get validated, but we want the validation to happen without checkmarking, on all the rows on clicking submit button.
Can someone help me to fix this issue?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & regards,
Ravi.
