Field Header / Column Header Dynamic Name change

Hi,
I have built a query using SQ02 and SQ01. I have a question, what is the easiest way of changing the Column Header using ABAP Code? I have 3 columns which i have added myself,
1st colum name should be the current month
2nd column name should be current month +1
3rd column name should be current month + 3
ANy help would be appreciated
thanks
Adeel

Hi Friend,
For changing column name according to your requirement in ALV:
take a variable type p (for example ws_month);
pass month number.
Go to table T247 and take month text and pass to
WA_FIELDCAT-SELTEXT_M = 'Month Text'.
Increment the month number by 1 and follow the same logic.
You can implement the same logic for report also.

Report - header columns(Heading) unscrollable

HI 1
I have a report in list display. which has the header with headings of the report and under which the report follows i.e , in header , material , plant , item,net price ect is mentioned and the detaisl about it follows under it. Now when I scroll down the report the headerr details alos scrolls up and it becomes difficlut to see what is against what if I have come down in the report as the header has vanished upwards on scroll. How do I make my report header static at one place and teh items just scrolls under it so that w ecan easily locate what is against what.
Thanks
Aarav

SO you mean to say that I ahve remove the write statements from my reports and add teh column headings in the list headings side by sude in the row mentioned there , but my headings are in three lines one under each other . If you run ME2M report and see a output in list display then you will see that the header is constant and the item sunder it move , that is how I wnat it to happen in my report too. Kiundly suggest please.
Thanks

Change Column Heading dynamically in ABAP report

Hi,
is it possible to have the selection screen values in the column heading of the result screen in a report?
Currently list heading / column heading values are maintained in a Goto-> Text elements -> List headings
but I would like to have values there that are entered by user, is it possible?
Regards,

Hi,
User can Maintain the Column Heading's, by the way you mentioned....
Else you can use TOP-OF-PAGE event to build Dynamic Coulmn Headers.

Infinite loop creating new page due to column header overflow.

i am getting an error and some pages "Infinite loop creating new page due to column header overflow. " --
using report builder 9, i have a fairly simple report - that contains 4 subreports.
for some pages i get the error - it seems if there is more data than would fit on 1 page.
smaller pages work fine.
the subreports are all simple queries and dumps....
containing page header, column header, detail sections.
page header has just a text bar of the name of the section.
column header has the field names
detail section has the data - 1 row for each row in the recordset.
nothing i do seems to change getting "Infinite loop creating new page due to column header overflow. " on a page with more than 15-20 records returned.
any ideas would be appreciated.

How to change the column header name dynamically based on sysdate

Dear All,
i have designed some reports. i would like to change the column header dynamically based on sysdate. up to 24 months. can u help me, which add month function using the universe. i dont know if-then-else function is having the universe tool or not?

Post Author: prasingh
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
Are you saying you are not able to create an object by value (select: statement) as sysdate and put it onto the headers of your report? You can use the add_months() function on the object to add the numbers of months you wish.
Please let me knnow for more.. You can get in touch with me on [email protected] for quick reply.

Changing the Column Header and Hiding the Column dynamically???

Hi friends..
I'm new to OBIEE field. I'm working in a OBIEE project that requires to dynamically change the column header, and dynamically hide the column depending on the prompt value.
I know we can dynamically change the table header using the presentation variable but I couldn't do that same thing with column header.
I searched some forums that suggest to use java script for this purpose but I'm not able to do the same also. If anyone had same issue before please help.

toony, I'm not sure it's possible to do all that you want exactly the way you want, but here are some ideas you can pursue.
To dynamically change column headers without javascript, check this blog out...
http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2008/01/25/oracle-bi-ee-101332-dynamic-column-headers-using-presentation-variables-sets-and-conditional-formatting/
As far as dynamically hiding a column, I don't think you can do this, but since you don't provide any details on how the PV is supposed to hide a column based on the value, are you talking about hiding a column for one PV value and another (different) column for a different PV value? Or are you talking about hiding one column when a PV has certain values and displaying it when the PV has a different set of values?
I have managed to create both scenarios via a work-around, but the procedures require some writing so I don't want to put both. Please detail how you want your PV to "hide" a column or columns.
P.S. I don't think column selectors will do the trick for you. Basically column selectors work like this: Say you have a report using Sales Region ID, Region Name, and Sales. Now let's say you want the user to choose if he/she wants to see annual sales, or quarter sales or weekly sales, etc. The column selector view would allow you to put the various columns (Year Sales, Quarter Sales, Weekly Sales) as an option the user can select. Once selected, the sales figure will change for the time period selected. For an example of how this is done, check out the section in this "Oracle by Example" link.
Waited too long to publish this... Madan beat me to it, so there is some overlap here...

Change Table control Column Header text dynamically

Hi,
I have an requirement to change table control column header text dynamically.
i.e. I have about 10 columns in table control, out that need to change 5 columns header text. These header texts are stored in an internal table.
I had looked into the below link but could not get exactly how to do it.
Dynamic headers in table control
Could you please tell me how to do that.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Saba,
What you will need to do is this.....
1. First replace the column Header Text box by I/O Fields and name them accordingly.
Say for example we will consider the same example which i had explained in the link.
there in the column header we want the header to change when some dates and entered into two fields which are out of table control say
Start Date: 01.01.2010 to End Date: 06.01.2010
Now we want the header to look like this,
Column No.    -        1               2             3                  4               5               6
Header label   -    01/FRI       02/SAT     03/SUN       04/MON     05/TUE      06/WED
Header name -    SPOTS1   SPOTS2    SPOTS3      SPOTS4     SPOTS5    SPOTS6
then you go as per the instructions in the link......
Let me know if you need further help,
Hope this solves your problem....

Hi,
by making use of specific report column templates and column template conditions you can change the headers dynamically.
See this http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23903_01/doc/doc.41/e21674/ui_templt.htm#HTMDB25708 for more info.

Dynamically change column heading without Dashboard Prompt

Hi All,
My requirement is change the column heading dynamically in a report. I have achieved this through setting the presentation variable to the dashboard prompt.
I have 5 columns in the dashboard prompt. Out of these 5 columns, I want to use only 1 column as dashboard prompt.
But still I want to dynamically change the column heading of the other 4 columns based on the only 1 column selected in the dashboard prompt.
Is there anyway to achieve this?

You need to have some logic to change other 4 columns based on 1 selected column.. where you want put that logic?
BTW: Check these

Dynamic Columns, using the element name as the column header name

BI Publisher Experts,
I'm a relative newbie in the RTF layout world and i'm trying to acheive a layout which dynamically nominates the column headers as the element name.
For example using the XML below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ROWSET>
- <DATA>
- <THREECOLUMNDATA>
<FIRST_NAME>First Name</FIRST_NAME>
<LAST_NAME>Last Name</LAST_NAME>
<EMAIL>[email protected]</EMAIL>
</THREECOLUMNDATA>
</DATA>
</ROWSET>
Excuse formatting, looked ok in preview!
I'd like to acheive the following output:
| FIRST_NAME | LAST_NAME | EMAIL |
|-----------------------|---------------------- |--------------------------------------------------------|
| First Name | Last Name | [email protected] |
I've managed to get the row data columns working using:
<?for-each@cell:current()/*?><?.?><?parent::*/text()?> <?end for-each?>
And i've been working on the header for a while now, using
<?for-each@column:current()/THREECOLUMNDATA[1]/*?><?name(.)?><?end for-each?>
But no luck with the header. I only ever get a blank header.
I've also reviewed the following syntax:
<?split-column-header:THREECOLUMNDATA?> <?/FIRST_NAME?>
But of course, this pulls specific element data out as the header, not quite what I need.
Question is: Is there specific functionality to pull the element name out as the header, or do I somehow specifically need to include the header name as a data value in the XML?
Advice appreciated!

If you could get your XML to look like this instead of what you have, you will be able to use split-column-header and split-column-data
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<ROWSET>
<DATA>
<THREECOLUMNDATA>
<COL_DTLS>
<COL_LABEL>FIRST_NAME</COL_LABEL>
<COL_VALUE>First Name</COL_VALUE>
</COL_DTLS>
<COL_DTLS>
<COL_LABEL>LAST_NAME</COL_LABEL>
<COL_VALUE>Last Name</COL_VALUE>
</COL_DTLS>
<COL_DTLS>
<COL_LABEL>EMAIL</COL_LABEL>
<COL_VALUE>[email protected]</COL_VALUE>
</COL_DTLS>
</THREECOLUMNDATA>
</DATA>
</ROWSET>
Now if you <?split-column-header:COL_DTLS?><?COL_LABEL?> and <?split-column-data:COL_DTLS?><?COL_VALUE?> you'll get the required output...

Dynamically changing the Advance table column Header.

Dear All,
I want to change dynamically the Advance table column header.
I tried the below code and its working process request,not in process form request when button pressing.
Please suggest me.
         OAAdvancedTableBean tableBean =
                           (OAAdvancedTableBean)webBean.findIndexedChildRecursive("advanceTableRN");
                       if (tableBean != null) {
                       System.out.println("tableBean");
                           OAColumnBean columnBean =
                               (OAColumnBean)tableBean.findIndexedChildRecursive("column3");
                           if (columnBean != null) {
                               System.out.println("columnBean");
                               OASortableHeaderBean colHeaderBean =
                                   (OASortableHeaderBean)columnBean.getColumnHeader();
                               if (colHeaderBean != null) {
                                   System.out.println("colHeaderBean");
                                   colHeaderBean.setText("Segment3");

You can try 2 options:
1. Try to call pageContext.forwardImmediatlytoCurrentPage();
2. Try yo set a vo attribute to the columnbean text property and set the vo attribute programmatically. (I have not tried this but I think it should work)
Cheers

How to change the column heading as the column changes

dear memebrs,
Take an example fo the table EMP. I need to create a report whose parameters are the table column names. so depending on the parameter(which is the column name) the report o/p changes.
so i am dynamically selecting the table column names and getting the o/p. The problem is when the column changes the heading of it in the report o/p is not changing.
we have to use format trigger for this, but i am not sure what code should we write in the format trigger of the boiler plate text of the column heading , such that it changes in accordance with the input which is nothing but column name.
for ex: If i choose EMPNO as the parameter then my column heading should become Employee Number and so on.......
your comments are welcomed
regards
sandeep

you can use a formula column of datatype character and of any width needed instead of a boilerplate text for the heading name.
In the formula column you can write code like below
IF :P_COLUMN_NAME = EMPNO THEN
return('Employee Number');
ELSIF :P_COLUMN_NAME = SAL THEN
return('Salary');
END IF;
where P_COLUMN_NAME the name of the column selected dynamically(i.e. the parameter).
