Field name not known in old existing report.

We have a report that we have used for a long time and has always been fine. Today when we open it it says data will be lost because "Field name not known". So you click ok and look at the report in design and the report is missing a bunch of fields. You look at the Field Explorer and it only shows the first field in the table. This report links 2 tables. The linking field is the first field in both tables.
I try to re-map datasource and no luck. I close Crystal, open Crystal and create a new report, look at the same tables and all of the fields are there. Create similar report looking at same datasource, same tables, some of the same fields, and it works fine.
What is wrong with the original report and why won't it connect or show fields?

It may be that the report file became corrupted. Do you have a back up of that report anywhere? If not you could create a new report using the same tables and links and then have both new and old reports open and copy objects from the old report to the new report. Save it and then verify it all works as it should and replace the old report with then new report. Copy the old report somewhere safe also.
Thank you
Don

"Name not known" error in all PCR of the MSS Package

Hi,
I'm getting an error in the PCR workset of the MSS package.
When I submit any form the error which I get is
"Name not known.Check your entries" .
Is this due to some problem in R/3 settings?
Also when I submit a PCR "Request for separation(enhanced)" I get an exception.
The log entry for this exception is as follows:
_27##0#0#Error#1#com.sap.sup.admin.connector.AbapConnectorLauncher#Plain###Cannot start ABAP Connector Listener. Please try to configure the connection in ABAP Systems Management (Setup Local Connectivity).

Hi Justin,
With other words, you are using the BP for MSS 60.1.5 or later.
Can you connect to the backend via a Java Connection?
Also this link will guide you much further. It helped me a lot for the new MSS forms (ECC 50).

Field is not known for condition accesses - While save sales order

Hi Gurus..............
I am getting error while i save my own sales order that Field is not known for condition accesses. Then the screen automatically come to SAP Easy Access screen
Pl let me know
Thanks in advance

Hi Selvi,
try this way, once you enter the required data for the sales order go to item conditions screen. Click the analysis button and see the conditions determined. You would find some of the condition deriving a value and some may not. It will give details as to how the records either determined or whats missing to determine. Make analysis for the conditions that you feel should have got determined by going to VK13 if everything is correct. Else try maintaining with VK11. Now it would tell you if any field/ condition table is missing which was initially constructed as part of the access sequence for this conditino type.

Field not Known Error in Crystal Report 11

I was using Crystal Report 8.5 earlier and i had a field named "Fee $" in the query and it was working fine when i pull the report in VB Application using Crystal Report Viewer. But when i migrated to Crystal 11 things started breaking. Crystal Report 11 is not supporting "Fee $" as column field and generates error Field not Known. And when i change it to only "Fee" removing special character "$", thing started in place. I appreciate any help on this.

Fathers name not appearing in HR standard Reports

Dear All,
Currently we are in process of using the standard pension reports like Form4 P.S, Form5 P.S etc(Tcode : PC00_M40_EPN).
In the report output , we observe that the Father's name field is not getting populated.
On Analysing further, we understood that.
1.In the implementation stage, we had mapped the father subtype to '3' instead of the default '11'.
(Personal Management>Personal Administration>Personal data --> Family-> Define possible family members).
2.In all the standard pension reports ( tcode : PC00_M40_EPN , PC00_M40_PNY etc ),the select query in the ABAP programs hardcodes subtype '11' to fetch for father detail from infotype table PA0021(Family Member/Dependents).
3.We have a lot of data mainatined in the current production system with sybtype '3' mapped to father.Hence cannot change it at present.
Is there any way out to display the fathers name in the standard HR reports ?Possible alternatives..?
Thanks,
Rijuraj

Dear John,
After considerable thought we decided not to change the config.We also have some custom developments which uses the father subtype.All these data would need to be deleted and corrected.
Hence we directly modified the relevant subroutine in the standard reports and changed the value from '11' to '3'.
The reports now work fine.
Thanks.

Changing ODBC Connection results in Field Name not found error

Post Author: POH
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
I am using CR XI with mySQL 5.0 and VB6. The computer I use to to design my reports has a odbc dsn which is used to develop the reports. On the production computer the same odbc dsn is present but has a different server, database, user and password entries. I am using the code below to set the connection and test the database. For Each objDatabaseTable In objDatabaseTables objDatabaseTable.SetLogOnInfo "servername", "dbname", "user", "pw" objDatabaseTable.ConnectionProperties("UseDSNproperties") = True Next crxDatabaseTable crxDatabase.Verify No Error is given and the report in this case does not have any sub reports.Now when the command ViewReport is run the CR viewer is shown but the report is not displayed. The viewer shows the error "Filed Name not found". I do not have any formel fields in the report and I have checked to make sur that both databases have the same structure. Can any body help me. Regards Paul

Did you add a System DSN or a User DSN? If you added a User DSN from your own login, the asp.net application will not be able to use it unless its application Pool in IIS is configured to run under the same credentials that you used for creating
the DSN. It's better if you add a System DSN.
Also, be careful to ensure that you are using a 64 bit DSN, unless you configure the application to run in 32 bits. If the 64 bit application attempts to use the 32 bit driver you get the same error message "Data source name not found and no default
driver specified". See this KB article:

Can field names not start with a single letter camel case?

I am using Hibernate 3.6, JPA 2.0, and Spring 3.0.6. I have fields in my objects like the following:
class PersonContact {
Long eAddressCpId;
ElectronicAddress eAddress;
I use field access (in my orm files) and queries/inserts/etc work without an issue. The fields are both in the class as well as in the orm files. But on startup of the application, the JPA configuration load spits out warnings:
2011-02-22 15:38:10,785 [[STANDBY] ExecuteThread: '3' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)'] WARN org.hibernate.cfg.annotations.reflection.JPAOverridenAnnotationReader - Property com.foo.model.contactpoint.ElectronicAddress.eAddress not found in class but described in <mapping-file/> (possible typo error)

If I change my field names to be from eAddress to electronicAddress and eAddressCpId to electronicAddressCpId , then I don't get these warnings.
Is there requirements around the field names?
Thanks..jay

Hi,
If you have this PersonContact.eAddress in your mapping file, Hibernate will look in PersonContact for
1 a public field called eAddress
2 a public member method called getEAddress (Or geteAddress).
3 a public member method called isEAddress(Or isAddress)
Your fields aren't public, so my guess is that getEAddress is found. From this "get" is stripped away and the rest is "decapitalized".
This decapitalize method has these lines:
if (name.length() > 1 && Character.isUpperCase(name.charAt(1)) &&
Character.isUpperCase(name.charAt(0))){
return name;
}So yes, I think there is a requirement with fields names. (Or rather getter names, since fields aren't decapitalized)
You could try and change your mapping file into PersonContact.EAddress to see if I'm right.
Btw, I am not a Java programmer, so this is what I could manage from a poor mans view at this (Open) source of Hibernate's.

XML Schema Collection (SQL Server 2012): How to create an XML Schema Collection that can be used to Validate a field name (column title) of an existing dbo Table of a Database in SSMS2012?

Hi all,
I used the following code to create a new Database (ScottChangDB) and a new Table (marvel) in my SQL Server 2012 Management Studio (SSMS2012) successfully:
-- ScottChangDB.sql saved in C://Documents/SQL Server XQuery_MacLochlainns Weblog_code
-- 14 April 2015 09:15 AM
USE master
IF EXISTS
(SELECT 1
FROM sys.databases

--Or if you want the completed element
SELECT @x.query('/Marvel[4]/avenger_name')

Now I am trying to create my first XML Schema Collection to do the Validation on the Field Name (Column Title) of the "marvel" Table. I have studied Chapter 4 XML SCHEMA COLLECTIONS of the book "Pro SQL Server 2008 XML" written by
Michael Coles (published by Apress) and some beginning pages of XQuery Language Reference, SQL Server 2012 Books ONline (published by Microsoft). I mimicked Coles' Listing 04-05 and I wanted to execute the following first-drafted sql in
my SSMS2012:

I feel that drafted sql is very shaky and it needs the SQL Server XML experts to modify to make it work for me. Please kindly help, exam the coding of my shcXMLTableValidate1.sql and modify it to work.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

Hi Scott,
2) Yes, FOR XML PATH clause converts relational data to XML format with a specific structure for the "marvel" Table. Regarding validate all the avenger_names, please see below
sample.
DECLARE @x XML
SELECT @x=(SELECT ID ,avenger_name FROM marvel FOR XML PATH('Marvel'))
SELECT @x
SELECT
n.value('avenger_name[1]','VARCHAR(99)') avenger_name,
n.value('ID[1]','INT') ID
FROM @x.nodes('//Marvel') Tab(n)
WHERE n.value('ID[1]','INT') = 1 -- specify the ID here
--FOR XML PATH('Marvel') --uncommented this line if you want the result as element type
3)i.check the xml schema content
--find xml schema collection
SELECT ss.name,xsc.name collection_name FROM sys.xml_schema_collections xsc JOIN sys.schemas ss ON xsc.schema_id= ss.schema_id
select * from sys.schemas
--check the schema content,use the name,collection_name from the above query
SELECT xml_schema_namespace(N'name',N'collection_name')
3)ii. View can be viewed as virtual table. Use a view to list the XML schema content.
CREATE VIEW XSDContentView
AS
SELECT ss.name,xsc.name collection_name,cat.content
FROM sys.xml_schema_collections xsc JOIN sys.schemas ss ON xsc.schema_id= ss.schema_id
CROSS APPLY(
SELECT xml_schema_namespace(ss.name,xsc.name) AS content
) AS cat
WHERE xsc.name<>'sys'
GO
SELECT * FROM XSDContentView

Table Maintenance - Field Names not appearing

Hi,
   I given table maintenace for 'Z' table.
   When i went to SM30 transcation, the fields which are taken as Built-in type instead of Data elements are not having caption( Field names ) . It is showing '+' in the place of Fieldname .
   What may be the reason. In table i given short description of the field . Even though it is not displaying.
Please suggest me.
Thanks in advance
Pavan.

Hi Pavan,
If you used the built-in types, then that is how it appears in SM30. It will <b>not</b> take the field short descriptions you entered in the table.
Only way to get around it is to go to the screen of the table maintenance and change the field lables there. Caution though, is that whenever you change the table maintenance, you need to do this screen change again.
Let me know if you need more info on how to do it.

Field Names Not Found in Item Table Properties

Please note that the following field names cannot be found in the Table Object properties but can be found in the database table for the Item table.
ItemType within Item Heading
ReorderQty within Inventory Data -
this is called Required Stock Level on Inventory scrn.
MinOrdrQty - Minimum Ordered Qty on Planning scrn.
Please advise. Thanks!

Satish,
The ItemType property is available for the Items Object. As far as the ReOrderQty ... this does not seem to be available as a property. If you must use these properties in your add-on, you could go to the Db directly as they are in the appropriate tables HOWEVER, this is not a recommended approach as data corruption could occur as well as SAP will not certify a solution that used direct table access to the Db. You could put in a request via SAP Support for these properties to be added in coming versions of the DI API.
HTH,
Eddy

It's possible not change structure of existing report by adding group ?

Hello Everybody,
I have to create new group in a report already existed . But every time I do it in Graphical Data Model, when apply in Report Wizard, The report changes completely with the position of columns and even the style of the report is modified.
How I can avoid this fact ?
It's possible to don't have this changes when having new groups ?
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

Then the manner of creating the repeating frame is only to draw it manually in layout ?Yes
Then my problem is it exceeds the limiit and it disrupts after.Which llimit you are talking about?
And Why when I create repeating frame, the column which I draw it developp and the others remain fixed ?You mean the new column you created you can move outside the frame? And the column you had before you can not move?
A hint while creating group repeating frame you will have to select all the objects and place it in the new created grouped repeating frame. Then create new fields inside that group repeating frame.

HI Achal,
You three fields you are talking about. having dictionary reference fields in it.
And here we need some correction, these two fields needs to be populate very carefully (In caps).
Try with
FIELDCAT_LN-REF_FIELDNAME = 'MENGE'. "<- REF FIELD IN THE DICTIONNARY
FIELDCAT_LN-REF_TABNAME   = 'MSEG'. "<- REF TABLE IN THE DICTIONNARY
and remove the extraneous fields from field catelag it will by default pass it to parameter.
like
FIELDCAT_LN-NO_OUT    = ''.
FIELDCAT_LN-KEY       = ' '.   "SUBTOTAL KEY

AD Process Form - Renaming the field name not happening

Hi Experts,
I have changed the label name of "AD Server" to "Active Directory (AD) Resource" in the process form (UD_ADUSER) by creating a new version. But still the process form displays the old label name "AD Server". Its not displaying the new label name.
Can u assist me?
Thanks & Regards
INIYA

You need to use the Form Version Control utility. Then switch all the user's to the new one. You can also provide what the default value should be for the field. The documentation should provide you the details.
Or you can use SQL and update all the users to the correct IT Resource, but remember it will be a long value.
