Formatted search Auto update based on copy to next document

Hi all,
I have a formatted search on Sales Order. I want this formatted search to update/trigger when a Sales Quotation is copied to a Sales Order. Is this possible. I tried using Sales order document number but under auto refresh when field change but didn't work. Looks like it's not possible to trigger a FS simple by opening a new document creation screen. In this scenario using sales order due date is not ideal.
Thanks all

Hi Nagarajan,
I don't think the code of the FS matter. Its about whether a FS can be triggered without doing anything more once a quotation is copied to sales order.
Thanks

Formatted search to update item description in Purchase order document

Hello Everyone,
Has anyone developed a formated search to update the item description field on the PO or SO document? I need to change the standard Item Description based on the BP catalog number but cannot seem to get it to work. I know to change it using the screens you need to enter CTRL+TAB to move from the field without triggering a lookup process but do not know how to do this in a formatted search. Has anyone tried this?

Formated Search: Auto refresh with two conditions.

Hi,
I've created a Formated Search in one of my column.
I defined my formated search as :
- Auto refresh "When Exiting Altered Column" Item No.
- Display Saved Values.
Now how can I make it Auto refresh with two conditions?
- Auto refresh "When Exiting Altered Column" Item No.
And
- Auto refresh "When Field Changes" Customers/Vendor Code.
- Display Saved Values.
Is there any way to make it work?
Thanks In Advance.
Bruce.

Hi Bruce,
You could try this trick.
You need to execute SELECT1 in Col1 when Item No. column is altered or the Customer code is changed.
Then, in the Item No. column asign a new Formatted Search which selects the Item No. column value (Its value) when the Customer code is changed.
And in the Col1 asign a formatted search that acts when the Item No. column is altered.
I think this should do the trick.
Let us know if works.

Formatted search to update Batch attribute to match row project code

We have extented project codes to the batch level by creading a UDF OIBT.U_ProjectCode.
Is it possible to create a formatted search in the "Batch Setup " window to update this UDF with the project code from the corresponding row of the purchase order? Keep in mind not all rows on the purchase order may be tracked by batches.

Hi,
Formatted search can only get value from database or current form. There is no access to other open forms.
Thanks,

Formatted search not updating

Hello Experts,
I have created a Formatted search on AR invoice document for an UDF and auto refresh is set on Document series.
The FMs works fine for all series except for one which is set as default in document numbering. The values are in UDF not shown when this invoice is created with this series.
Is there any limitation for FMs when set to auto refresh on an series with default one.
Thanks
Deepak

Hi Deepak,
UDF will refresh only when Series will change. This is Limitation.
So Try to refresh UDF on some other field so that you can get Value in UDF for Default Series also.

Price List Auto Update based on Last Purchase Price

Dear Expert
                     I have a problem in updating the PriceList at one of my client site . They are making CST purchase
Eg.    We are entering purchase through Goods Receipt PO item cost 100RS and CST tax 20 RS
         Then Copy to AP invoice . so the item cost is coming to 120 as CST is non deductible tax .
         If we goto Price list , it will clearly show last purchase Price is 120 every thing is fine till now
       Now the issue comes :- company is incurring frieght charges 10 Rs or any amount this also has to be included to cost that we are entering through Landed Cost . This 10Rs is automatically adding to cost . if we look the item cost it will be 130 this is also correct . But the Problem is that when we go to Pricelist we find that Last Purchase price as 110 that is 100 Rs base doc price +10 Rs Frieght (Landed Cost) . .
Actually the Last Purchase Price should come as 130 (1002010) . We are dealing with 4000+ items it is difficult to mannually update the Price List .

Dear Shihabuddin,
In most localization, price is for before tax price. If you want tax included in the price, you can create your own price list to calculate.

How to use "insert into & select" in format search

Hello,
I am just wonderring whether you can help me solve this issue.
I want to change the value of a field in the title area for a sales quotation. however, this field is not shown up on the interface.
For example, there is a field in the title area, "OQUT.Ref1". You actually cannot see this field from the quotation interface or any other doc. Now I want to update the value of this field.
What I am now trying to do is to create an field named "update" in the title area, use format search to update. the code for the command will be something like
Insert into $[OQUT.Ref1.0]
select $[OQUT.U_MFG#]
here, U_MFG# is UDF. as you may understand, I want to copy the value in the U_MFG# to the field of "Ref1".
However, when I run "Execute", it gives me error. I believe there is something wrong with the code of "Insert into $[OQUT.Ref1.0]
Does anyone know how to write the code?
many thanks
Stanley

Thanks both Suda and sagar. The reason I wanted to do this is because I wanted to have UDF info be shown on the MS word-templated quotation document.
As you know, when you click the word symbol, a word-templated doc will be generated. The client needs two completely different format of quotation printout. thus I plan to print one type from PLD and other type by clicking the Word symbol. but later, I found out that the UDF field cannot be selected on the MS word template, or only system fields.
Thus, the only way I can do is to copy the value from udf to some unused sytem fields and then show that system fields on the MS word template.
any idea do you have?
I wanted to tell SAP that It is not useful if the udf fields cannot be inserted into word template.
thanks
Stanley

My Formatted search work wrong!!

I'd like to get your understanding on my english ability.
But..., Time Pressed..
Please Help me ..
I make a UDO and Formatted search(It Update the U_CardName whenever the U_Cardcode changes )
After, I link a Formatted search to my form(using screen Painter and connecting UDO, it works good).
The problem is formatted search work only When i pushed "Update" button in screen of Define Formatted Search , otherwise it doesn't work.
so now, I work ..
   1. Form Load.
   2. Ctrl + Shift + f2 press in edittext of U_cardname
   3. (Originally, Checked "Display Saved Values"
      check "Refresh Regularly" and
      check "Display Saved Values"
   4. "Update"
what's the my problem?
why is it happend?

Hi Lee,
You have to define a Query in the cardname field indicating that the query must be executed when the value of CardCode changes.
Now, define such a query:
SELECT T0.CardName AS 'BP Name' FROM [dbo].[OCRD] T0 WHERE T0.CardCode = RTRIM($[$3.U_CardCode])
Where "3" is the item number of the column that contains the U_CardCode. Check the one is assigned to your field using the "Debug Information" in the "View" Menu
When you define the Formatted Search:
- Select Search by Saved Query and choose the one that contains the statement above
- Auto Refresh when...
- Select here the description that match your U_CardCode field
- Display Saved Values
Now you have set your UFS and it works!
Hope this helps,
Felipe

Formatted Search with multiple conditions

Hi experts,
I am using a formatted search to update the Unit price in Sales Order. Query mentioned below.
Select      T0.ItemCode,
               T0.ItemPrice,
From        ITM1 T0 inner join OPLN T1 on T0.PriceList = T1.ListNum
Where      T0.ItemCode = '[$38.1.0]'
     and     T1.u_location = '$[$38.2000002049.0]'
But while adding Item on Sales Order, it is showing error, Incorrect Syntax near '$[$38.2000002049.0]'.
Note: I have added an UDF named U_LOCATION( Alphanumeric, 10) in OPLN and selecting location in Price List through another FMS which is working perfectly.
Please help in this regards.
Thanks in Advance.
Nabyendu

Hi Nabyendu Saha..
You said the u_location as alphanumeric the why you have given 0 for the field type in the FMS...
Select      T0.ItemCode,
               T0.ItemPrice,
From        ITM1 T0 inner join OPLN T1 on T0.PriceList = T1.ListNum
Where      T0.ItemCode = '[$38.1.0]'
     and     T1.u_location = '$[$38.2000002049]'
or
Select      T0.ItemCode,
               T0.ItemPrice,
From        ITM1 T0 inner join OPLN T1 on T0.PriceList = T1.ListNum
Where      T0.ItemCode = [$38.1.0]
     and     T1.u_location = $[ordr.u_location]
Try the above , hope helpful

Auto updating in Numbers

Can any one say if its possible to set "auto updating" in Numbers 09" ?
I've recently imported a document from appleworks which had this facility but cannot find it in the new
app.
If it can be done -How?
Alan

Hi Alan,
I don't recall having used this option in an AppleWorks spreadsheet document (or data base document).
I know that AppleWorks supported inserting a fixed or auto-updating date into a word processing document or into a text frame in a spreadsheet, but that menu item was not available in the AW spreadsheet's Edit menu.
You can insert the current date into any cell in a Numbers table using Edit > Insert Date and Time, or by pressing shift-option-command-D. Despite what the menu item implies, this inserts the current date, but with the time set to 0:00 (midnight). This is a Fixed date entry; trhe value will not change until you replace it.
AppleWorks spreadsheets and Numbers tables both support the NOW() function, which returns the current date and time value. This will display the current date if the cell is formatted to show a date (AppleWorks) or to show Date and Time, with the Time format set to None, in Numbers. The values will update each time the table is recalculated (ie. every time a value is changed in any cell).
And, as Jerry notes, auto-updating dates update as soon as the document is opened, without waiting for the user to check the previous value. You may find inserting a fixed date more useful.

Barry

Nokia S60v3 time auto update bug

**NOTE: You will ONLY see this bug if you live in USA where there is no DST**
I live in Phoenix (Arizona) and there is no day light savings here i.e. MST+NO DST or they also call it "Arizona time (GMT-7hr)".
When i bought N95-1 in April 2007, i had set the phone to auto update based on network time. It would always report +1 hour of my actual time i.e. 7:00PM when the actual time was 6:00PM. I did all sorts of debugging (changing sims,trying AT&T vs T-mobile sims, firmware updates) but no success and i ended up disabling network time and set the time manually on my phone which is not nice if you travel between time zones. My current sim would report correct time on my wife's Treo-680 & Motorola Razor. Later i bought N95-3, same problem!
Then i was surprised to see my friend with Nokia N80 had exactly the same problem here in Phoenix so now at least i knew i was not doing something stupid.
I finally nailed it that it is bug in Nokia phone software because after first Sunday of November (11/04/2007) when DST end in USA and we revert to standard time the Auto update feature started reporting correct time and is working properly now. And i bet after the second Sunday in March (i.e. on 9 March 08) when DST kicks in, it would go bad again to +1 hour offset.
Nokia needs to fix this bug.
Nokia N97 NAM

I do not believe this is network operator issue. if that were the case, then it should break other phones as well. As far as I've been able to determine, looking at other Nokia, Sony Ericsson, LG, and Motorola phones, this isn't the case. They all work fine. Actually my Nokia 6270 works fine on the SAME operator and on the SAME sim card!!
Another point is that i even tried other operator SIM cards into my N95 and it is always the Nokia and not the operator. I can also say this with confidence that the issue is not only N series but also the E series device that have S60v3 or higher
I am not the first to report this. Here is another thread and towards the end it seems Nokia knows about this. Which makes me even more mad!

Update copied to multiple documents

Hi
We have a requirement to update a property or value within a document such as expiry date and for this update to automatically copied to multiple documents on different sites and libraries.
We need to edit a 'master copy' and have this change copied to all other documents based on the 'master copy'. We would appreciate any suggestions. We are thinking of using workflow rules and the update list item action but are unsure if there is better
options.
Would we possibly be able to use the document information panel and have the update copied to other documents based on a template?
Thanks very much
Tony

Hi
Just to let you know, I am considering using a Slist and a custom document information panel.
The data will be changed in the list and then using a data connection within the document information panel, be copied to the quick parts within the word document.
The word document will reside on a different site and library and when opened will receive data from the list (master copy), the data will then be copied to the quick parts within the document.
Does anyone foresee any issues with this approach?
I would like to refresh the document automatically without reopening the document. Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much
Tony

Formatted search - syntaxhelp

Dear All,
i want to create a very simple formatted search, which updates the unitprice-field in sales order when itemcode changes.
With the actual cardcode number and itemcode of the sales order (before saving) i want to check my udt (specialprice) for a fitting entry and want to return a price out of this udt.
My FS:
SELECT
      T0.U_SpecialPrice AS [Specialprice]
    FROM
      [@XXX_SPECIALPRICE] T0
    WHERE (T0.U_CardCode = $[$4.0.0] AND T0.U_ItemCode = $[$38.1.0])
If i replace the $-Codes with a test-value the fs works. The udf's have the necessary types and digits.
The error-message can't help me: incorrect syntax near '$4.0.0'
Thank you for your answers...
GB

hmmm.... I don't think so, because i have a more complicated query in purchase order which does nearly the same and this works....ok there is no direct where-condition with the udt-colums but an inner-join...
SELECT
      T4.U_SpecialPrice AS [Specialprice]
    FROM
      OPOR T0 INNER JOIN
      POR1 T1 ON (T0.DocEntry=T1.DocEntry) INNER JOIN
      RDR1 T2 ON (T1.BaseEntry=T2.DocEntry AND T1.BaseLine=T2.LineNum AND T1.BaseType=T2.ObjType) INNER JOIN
      ORDR T3 ON (T2.docentry=T3.DocEntry) INNER JOIN
      [@XXX_SPECIALPRICE] T4 ON (T3.CardCode=T4.U_CardCode AND
      T2.ItemCode=T4.U_ItemCode)
    WHERE (T0.DocNum=$[$-8.0.0] AND T1.LineNum=$[$38.0.0]-1)

Auto-update of figure/images in Pages

Dear all,
I'm just wondering whether Pages has a feature allowing it to auto-update images you import into it, i.e., if I insert an image in pages and then decide I need to edit it some-more in Photoshop, can you make it update by itself in Pages? I know this feature is available in Microsoft Word for mac.
Any help much appreciated.
Neil

Neil,
Yet again, Pages is no clone of Word. Pages' graphics are embedded, not linked, and that might be why there's no auto-update. I can see where auto update would be nice if many documents use the same graphic and you want it updated in all of them.
Whatever your reasons, it wouldn't hurt to Provide Feedback to Apple from the Pages menu.

Formatted Search issue

I have a UDF attached to a Purchase Order, Goods Receipt PO and Batch Numbers for Items. B1 automatically carries the UDF data forward from the Purchase Order to the Goods Receipt PO. However, I am trying to create a Formatted Search that will also bring that data into the Batches Setup transaction when a Goods Receipt PO transaction is being added. Since the Goods Receipt PO record is not yet written when the Batches Setup screen is activated, I somehow need to access the UDF data from POR1 from the Batches Setup screen (OIBT). I don't seem to be able to find a way of writing my query for the formatted search that is able to return the data from POR1 to my UDF in OIBT. Any ideas of how I might be do this?

Timothy,
The values in the Purchase Order / Goods Receipt screen are not available in teh Batch Number screen.
You will need to use a temp table to store the values from the Purchase Order / Goods Receipt screen.
You will set a formatted search on one of the columns of the documents row. Through this formatted search you will insert the data into the temp table and from the Batch screen you will read the values from this temp table
