File name field not generating dynamic file name for report printing

Hello Folks,
I have a report region on a page and have enabled report printing. I would like to have the file name generated dynamically. So, I add the substitution string, say "&P1_CUSTOMER_NAME." (no quotes). The output file I get is literally named "&P1_CUSTOMER_NAME..pdf" (no quotes).
I have seen several posts suggesting the file name field should accept this syntax but, I cannot get it to work.
We are running Application Express 3.2.0.00.27 and BI Publisher.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help.
-Markus B.

I was finally able to make it work using a page process and the APEX_UTIL.DOWNLOAD_PRINT_DOCUMENT with a submit button.

When downloading a file, only the first word of the attached file is included in the 'file name' field, not the entire file name, as it used to.

Regardless of filetype, only the first word of the file is filled into the "Enter name of file to save to..." dialog box. I'm set up to 'save file' in the FF Options > Applications tab for the basic MS and Adobe files. To successfully use/find the downloaded file, I type in the remainder of the file name. Have I overlooked an additional setting? Running FF 18.0 on a Win7 PC.

File Content Conversion Problem of not generating empty file

Hi All,
i have 3 input text files for my BPM to process.
if any of the text file is empty, i need to generate an alert message that the file is empty........but the problem is file adapter does not generate a XML message for the empty text file..........
<b>Can anybody suggest how to generate the alert if any of the 3 text files is empty.</b>
Thanks,
Rajeev Gupta

Rajeev~
I dont find ur mail Id in ur Business card.Post the same..I will send you across a PDF with steps to write a adapter module.You would need to extend the same to check the payload for empty data and accordingly create a XML payload with checkpointer.
For validating this value in a BPM use the FORK step and check the payload in the condition editor.
Refer to this url for the same.

Can not open JPEG files and can not create JPEG files from other software

Can not open JPEG files and can not create JPEG files from other software (For example from Solidworks).
When I try to right click on a JPEG, a notice window appears written: "Windows Explorer has stopped working - Windows is
checking for a solution to the problem" and then the notice box disapears, the desktop appears and I can continue working.
From the other side - If I try to save as JPEG a screen of Solidworks (like a view of a part) the Solidworks falls but the JPEG
is created (I can see its name in the directory I created it).
I can open the JPEGS with the Paint software if I want but not with the Windows Photo Viewer.
I have the feeling that the Windows Photo Viewer disapeared from my computer - just a feeling.
I will appreciate your assistance.

Hi,
You mentioned you tried some steps but I'm not sure what they are, you may try my suggestion to resolve this issue, follow these steps:
Click Start, right-click Computer, click
Properties, and then click Advanced system settings.
On the Advanced tab, click Environment Variables.
Locate and select the __COMPAT_LAYER variable, and then click Edit.
Set the value of the __COMPAT_LAYER variable to EnableThemes. Or, delete the __COMPAT_LAYER variable.

Double-click in Files panel will not open a file

Double-click in Files panel will not open a file. Instead
alert message appears (I will translate from Czech): "Design notes
are not allowed for this file. If you want to use Design notes...".
I do not want use Design notes, I want to open a file from File
Panel.
The same issue is when opening by right-click/Open. The only
(and unconfortable) way to open a file from Files panel is to
right-click/Open in program/Dreamweaver, this works.
Do you know why? help me, please, this disturbs me very much.
I have clean installation of up to date CS3 Design Premium
(Version 9.0 build 41) on WinXP SP2. Previous version of DW (v8)
worked fine in this way. Associations in system are set OK, I
think, because double-clicking in my file manager really opens for
examle PHP files in DW.

Also Drag & Drop from Files panel is not functioning.
Sometimes neither alert appears, simply nothing happen.
Note: I am trying usual files like PHP or HTML files, but
also others (PDF, CSS) with the same result - nothing
happens.

File transport does not have read/write privileges for receive location???

Hi all.
I try to read an EDI-file from a file location.
In configured the receive location but when I enable it I get an error message in the log saying:

The location is correct (I used the browse option) and the folder is shared with all users (full access for everybody).
How can I get rid of this error

Dhanabal

Hi Dhanabal,
Is the XI system running on a unix machine ?
If yes, from the OS level for the folder you are using in the file comm. channel, execute the command
<b>chmod 777 <folder_name></b>
The reason for the file to show up in receiver side and not get deleted might be that the xi user mighht be having only read access to the folder...
Thanks,

The Applications File Server could not open the file

Hi All,
We have shared appl_top between 2 nodes.
When running concurrent request such as active user report, i got the following error:
The Applications File Server could not open the file oXXXXX.out for read
I have found metalink note
The Applications File Server could not open the file o611681.out for read (Doc ID 1311372.1)
The $APPLCSF are all fine and so are the permissions.
I found out if i start my primary node first, wait till concurrent manager start, then start second node, it would be ok.
is this recommended practice?
i thought i can start up all node at the same time.
am i right to say that the last node run adautocfg is the primary node?
Thanks in advance

I found out if i start my primary node first, wait till concurrent manager start, then start second node, it would be ok.
is this recommended practice?Do you have PCP implemented? If yes, you do not need to start the CMs on the second node and running adcmctl.sh script on the first node would be enough.
i thought i can start up all node at the same time.What exactly do you start?
am i right to say that the last node run adautocfg is the primary node?Please explain what components are running on each node.

Generate spool req number for report output list

Hi,
How to generate spool request number for report output list while executing the report.Please provide if you have any sample code.
Thanks and Regards,
BSR.

HI srinivas,
welcome to sdn.
Exporting the Contents of a Spool Request
Use
You want to export the content of a spool request in one of the following ways:
·        As a text file to the SAP GUI working directory
·        Unconverted or as a table, RTF, or HTML to a directory of your choice
·        As a PDF file to a directory of your choice
Procedure
Follow the procedure below:
Exporting to the SAP GUI Working Directory
If you are exporting large quantities of data, downloading the spool request as a text file to the SAP GUI working directory is a good solution.
Choose Spool Request ® Forward® Export as Text.
The entire text is stored in your SAP GUI working directory in ASCII format.
A file of this type is named using the following pattern:
.txt
Example: ABC0000004327.txt
You require appropriate authorization for this function from your administrator.
Exporting Unconverted or as a table, RTF, or HTML to a Directory of Your Choice
With this method of exporting a spool request, the content of the spool request is first displayed, and you then download the content in the format of your choice to a directory of your choice.
       1.      Select the spool request to be exported and choose Display Contents.
       2.      In the case of SAPscript/Smart Forms documents, activate list display by choosing Goto.
       3.      Choose System ® List ® Save ® Local File.
       4.      Choose one of the available formats and confirm your choice.
       5.      Choose a directory and save the spool request.
By default, only the first 10 pages of a spool request are saved in a file. You can increase the number of pages to be saved by choosing Goto ® Display Requests ® Settings and making the desired entries in the Display Area group box.
Exporting as a PDF File
You want to export the contents of a spool request as a PDF file to a directory of your choice, and print the file as required. The PDF file contains the print data in the format in which it would be output by the printer.
The following procedure is irrelevant for the printing of PDF-based forms, since a PDF file is already returned with this method. See also Displaying and Printing PDF-Based Forms.
You also require authorization from your administrator to run this report.
The PDF file is generated as follows with report RSTXPDFT4:
       1.      Generate a spool request from the document to be printed.
       2.      In transaction SE38, start report rstxpdft4.
       3.      In the displayed window, enter the spool request number and the directory in which the PDF file is to be stored.
Leave the Download PDF File option selected.
Choose Execute.
       4.      In the next window, you can confirm or change the path in which the file is be stored.
Save your entries.
       5.      The system displays a log from which you can see whether the report was successfully performed.
You can then open the file from the directory and print it as required.
Restrictions for Exporting as a PDF File
·        The PDF conversion only supports true bar codes for Smart Forms, which were generated with the new bar code technology as of SAP NetWeaver 04. In all other cases, the bar code is only simulated.
·        PDF conversion, especially of ABAP lists, is slower and is therefore not suitable for mass printing. However, you can speed up the conversion to PDF using the FASTLISTCONV option in report RSTXPDF3.
·        The font selection for ABAP lists is predefined in the PDF converter and cannot be changed.
For more information about constraints, see SAP Note 323736 in the SAP Service Marketplace

"File Path and Name" field not displaying correctly

Post Author: DaveWoo
CA Forum: General
Hello,Here's my situation: I'm currently upgrading from Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET 2003 to Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005. I have several reports (programmatically generated using VB.NET) that use the "File Path and Name" special field. Now, in the old version of Crystal Reports (2003), the field properly displayed the original file path and name; however, in the new version (2005), the field displays as "C:\DOCUME1\Username\LOCALS1\Temp\Filename{F2459406-3719-4C8B-917C-4A7055A18C76}.tmp" - in other words, the location of the temporary .rpt file.How do I get the "File Path and Name" field to correctly display the path & name of the original file, like it did in the prior version?- Dave

This is a known issue tracked under ADAPT0000962216. At this time I do not know when this will be resolved, however Service Pack 2 for CR 2008 is targeted to be released by September and this may contain the fix.

File upload script not getting the file name for larger files

Hi
I have the following code (see extract below) and find that
when the size of the file to upload is larger than about 300kb the
code does not grab the file name. Consequently the upload fails.
The code works fine when the file size is smaller.
The code in the form page is:
<form
action="UploadAttachment.asp?SubjectName=<%=Request.QueryString("SubjectName")%>&VersionN umber=<%=Request.QueryString("VersionNumber")%>&QualificationName=<%=Request.QueryString(" QualificationName")%>"
method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="form1">
<input name="file" type="file" size="100">
<input name="Upload" type="submit" id="Upload"
value="Upload">
</form>
The code in the UploadAttachment.asp page is:
<%
'Grab the file name
Dim objUpload, strPath, SQLString
Set objUpload = New clsUpload
'there is a problem that this next line doesn't grab the file
name if file is too large.
strFileName = objUpload.Fields("file").FileName
etc.
%>
If you have any idea how to resolve this I'd be grateful.

Custom file names of B2B generated edi files

All,
We have an outbound 834 EDI being implemented and there are two SOA Composites processing these based on some business case and we have a requirement of naming B2B generated edi files for trading partners in the delivery channels based on the SOA composite that processes the outbound transaction. Is there a way of naming these edi files based on the SOA composite that created/processed it? For example:
TP_834_CompositeA.edi
TP_834_CompositeB.edi
Thanks.

From my understanding, the delivery channel in B2B does not take variable for Filename format. Also it is not possible to dynamically assign the delivery channel to TP Agreement. The only option could be using Java callout in the TP Agreement.
