Formatting in WEBi based on different languages

Hello All,
I have a requirement that when i schedule a WEBi report from CMC, the formatting of number in the cells should change based on the user to whom this report is being sent out to.
Right now by default , it is taking the english format.
I have some German users, who see '.' as ',' and ',' as '.' . So when the report goes to these user in the PDF format, they should see the number in their known country specific format.
Any ideas how this can be achieved ?
Regards,
Ashutosh Singh

Hi Carly,
Yes . That is what i did . I created another copy of the WEBi report and set the below settings for German formatting :
But i also made sure to check the below check-box too i.e. "permanent regional formatting" :
And then when i scheduled this WEBi from CMC and saw the output in PDF it was according to German formatting.
But yes you are right, more feasible would have been to have one single WEBi report and have this option of Locale selection in the instances itself .
I am glad that we were on the same page.
I will put this idea in the idea place in the coming days .
Danke ( Thanks in German )

Ashutosh Singh

I tried to insert a hyperlink with sap-language parameter but in this way navigation properties on table and filter value's aren't maintened in the new web template .
Could you help me?
Thank's a lot
Andrea

I have done this using iviews in the portal by using
ie
Language = ZH in the application parameter
will fire up the iview in chinese on a hardcoded EN BI portal
Then you can have the same iview without the language string and that fires in the portal language (if hardcoded) or the personalisation language of the user

Webdynpro Appl screens in different languages based on the browsers languag

Hello Everybody,
In Java Webdynpro, how to get the screen elements in different languages, based on the browser language selected. It means.. for instance, we have the requirement to show the application in two languages, based on the language setting(language selected in the browser) of the users browsers.
We have to read the browser language selected and based on that value, we have to get the screens to come in that language.
Is that only through the Internationalisation process or is there any other way to do this.
Please help us by posting your concerns....
Thanks & Regards,

HCM Absence types- need to display in different languages in the same country based on user language preference

Hi
We are implementing in Belgium where we need to have absence in both dutch and French for the different user sets. Is there anyway to set up one absence type but have the different translations for the different user groups. There was a document ID 1619320.1 that referred to the fact that if the absences were created by a seedfile then they would be translated. Has anyone come across this issue whereyou need to display the same absence type for more than one language in the same country and how did you do this or did you have to set up separate absence types in the different languages which I do not want to do
thanks

Hi Parker
If you are using Captivate 4 multi languages is a
posibility..
Set a User Variable to pass the language you want to a Flash
SWF whic is embeded (This can play and hold multiple audio tracks).
For example Captivate 4 will pass "french" to the embeded flash SWF
which will play the "french" track.
OR
you could just use branching ;)

How can I add a different web-based email program to use as my default 'mailto:' function?

When I go to Settings -> Applications and click on 'mailto', I see 'Use Yahoo mail, Use Gmail, and Use other...'. I want to use the Go Daddy Workspace Webmail application, which like Yahoo & Gmail, is a web based program, but don't see any way to add that option. The 'Use other...' option is only looking for an executable file and it won't accept a web-based command.

I found an old thread about the same type of issue. I cannot be certain whether it still works or not. Feel free to checkout the thread [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/917427 here].

To generate an XLIFF file from an RTF template
Open your template in Microsoft Word with the Template Builder for Word installed.

One more clarification if i am going for 'create lang-template per lang' then do i need to have MLS configured in my EBS.
>
not sure about your point
what do you mean "configured" ?
mls is the ability to run you application on different language like italian, russian ....
so if you want check how many lang do you have then
select nls_language from fnd_languages where installed_flag in ('B','I');for my test instance i have only "AMERICAN"
but i can run my report with 'lang-template per lang' in different lang
so when you run your concurrent then click "options" and indicate "template language"
if you have
template name: XXTMP_ru.rtf lang: Russian
template name: XXTMP_en.rtf lang: English
then you can choose for "template language" - Russian and English

WEB BASED MAPPING APPLICATION TO DEVELOP QUERY UTILITY USING MAPVIEWER

WEB BASED MAPPING APPLICATION TO DEVELOP QUERY UTILITY USING MAPVIEWER

I currently use parameters, and they are passed from the form to the report. Report is then generated based on a function returning ‘strongly typed’ cursor. The ‘strongly typed’ cursor in my case returns a record consisting of an orderly collection of fields.
This collection of fields is returned by another function that relies on the IF … THEN logic.
However, the number of IF ... THEN statements is quite large (currently 64 covering all possible combinations of 6 parameters available in the form).
I would like to avoid the large number of IF … THEN statements, and hope that there is a way of passing a string to a query, where the Dynamic SQL would in Select close and Where close reflect parameters passed by the form.
In addition to this I would like to avoid creating and populating a table or a view dedicated to the report, because this may lead to a conflict in case of multiple users concurrently generating reports with different choice of parameters.

How to migrate from forms to web based application

Hi,
I did a form for Oracle applications, but client need a web based form for this application how can i migrate this to web based form. If it is possible can u give me suggestion how migrate.
Kishore B

Not sure if that's possible, as developing forms for Oracle Applications requires the use of TEMPLATE.fmb to start with, and the use of certain standards to adhere to the look and feel of the applications. Review the Oracle Applications Developer's guide for more details.
What You may do now is to upload the form to the Application Server and compile it to the adequate directory $PRODUCT_TOP/forms/[LANG], register the form, associate to a function and use it in a menu to see it trough Oracle Applications standard interface, but it may show a very different L&F and not all standard functionality may be available. With the Dev Guide's on hand, apply required changes and test Your form in the application.

Registering the Web based application as a Partner Application

Good day
I went through the suggested documentation of registering a
web based application as a partner application of the SSO Login Server.
I installed the SSOSDK.JAR and went through the demo application (JSP Demo)
which consists of the following programs :
papp.jsp
ssoinclude.jsp
ssoEnablerJspBean
SSOEnablerBean
SSOSignon
As per the technical documentation,I register this demo application as a
partner application.
1 - The source code of the papp.jsp checks for the existence of the user
through method of ssoEnablerJspBean [getSSOUserInfo(request, response)] which
calls method of SSOEnablerBean [getSSOUserInfo (request, response) and this
method calls getUserInfo(p_request) of SSOEnablerBean (the same program) to
check the existence of the application cookie.
2 - If it doesn't exit , it redirect it to the SSO Login page for user
authentication.Once the user is authenticated, a SSO login cookie is created on
the client's browser and redirects back to the SSOSignOn.
3 - The SSOSignOn program creates the application cookie and redirects back to
the entry point of the demo application which is papp.jsp.
My Questions are as follows :
1 - Instead of creating a session object within my web based application to hold some
information used between the different pages, can I define them in the
application cookie? kindly advise? Is there any limitation for the length of
the application cookie? If yes, what will be the risk?
2 - The SSOSignOn program is calling a method in the SSOEnablerBean
[setPartnerAppCookie(response, request). Within this method , it is retrieving
the parameters values of the request object as :
request.getParameterValues("urlc")[0];
What is the role of this [urlc]? Is it hard coded? Can I change it?
3 - In order to ensure that I am still dealing with the same user, shall I put
the above security check procedure on each page of my weeb based application? Kindly advise?
Thanks in advance for your prompt feedback
regards

Dear Paul
I think there is a misunderstanding regarding the last correspondence.
I am talking about the customized home page of the PORTAL and not the home page of my web based application (JSP) .So in this case, Am I able to use the customized home page which contains a login portlet instead of the default Login page of the SSO Login Server.Kindly advise!!!
On the other hand, I am facing a problem during the surfing of the web based application.
The web based application consists mainly of two packages :
Package I : Bank.counter which contains a set of jsp pages.
JSP_HOME_COUNTER (MAIN PAGE WHICH CONTAINS 2 FRAMES)
JSP_LEFT_FRAME_COUNTER
JSP_MAIN_FRAME_COUNTER
JSP_MAIN_FRAME_COUNTER_DETAIL
Package II : Bank.portfolio which contains a set of jsp pages.
JSP_HOME_PORTFOLIO (MAIN PAGE WHICH CONTAINS 2 FRAMES)
JSP_LEFT_FRAME_PORTFOLIO
JSP_MAIN_FRAME_PORTFOLIO
Please note that the SSO classes are residing under the first package.
As agreed on in the third question, I am including in each page of my web based application, a security check procedure as follows :
<%@ include file="ssoinclude.jsp" %>
<%
if(usrInfo == null)
response.getWriter().println("<center>User information not found</center>");
else
my jsp code.......
%>
Please note that all the jsp page of the portfolio package are pointing to the SSO classes as follows :
<%@ include file="../counter/ssoinclude.jsp" %>
<%
if(usrInfo == null)
response.getWriter().println("<center>User information not found</center>");
else
my jsp code.......
%>
Once I invoke the JSP_HOME_COUNTER , it will render the JSP_LEFT_FRAME_COUNTER page and
JSP_MAIN_FRAME_COUNTER page which invokes the SSO Login page. Once the user has been authenticate, the result of the JSP_MAIN_FRAME_COUNTER is rendered successfully. The result contains an hyperlink to the
JSP_MAIN_FRAME_COUNTER_DETAIL page. As the user has been authenticated , this page is rendering automatically the result without displaying the SSO Login page. (Perfect as of now!!).
Once I invoke the JSP_HOME_PORTFOLIO from the JSP_HOME_COUNTER, it runs the security procedure without any rendering of the SSO Login page (fine!!) but redirects me back to JSP_HOME_COUNTER instead of rendering the result of the JSP_HOME_PORTFOLIO.
please note that the m_requestUrl variable in the SSOEnablerJSPBean class has been assigned the folowing value : JSP_HOME_COUNTER
Kindly advise .

Problem with Hierarchies in BPS- Web-Based Planning Applications

Im trying to use a Web-Based Planning Application in BPS. The Datacolumns consist of a charecterisitc with a hierarchy. this hierarchy is time dependend. The timeframe is set correctly but i still receive an the following error message in my web browser:
"Hierarchy 'Hierarchy_name' is not valid for date 26.06.2004"
Does this error message look familiar to anybody? In the moment I have no clue what went wrong

Hello Tobias,
I assume you are talking about error message UPC 413 (it always helps to mention the message class and number). Please check table RSHIEDIR. The hierarchy you are using is not valid for the key date you specified (RSHIEDIR-DATEFROM > KEYDATE or RSHIEDIR-DATETO < KEYDATE). If you do not enter a key date in the planning area, the system will always use the system date. So either use a different hierarchy or maintain it differently to be valid on keydate (26.6.2004).

Web based worklist not working...

Hello,
(on wlpi 2.1 on weblogic sp2)
I've created a process that utilizes a stateless session bean. Every thing works
fine when using the fat-client worklist.
I wanted to use the web-based worklist with my process, so I did the following:
1.) Installed the %wlint_home%/samples/bpm_api/jsp/worklist.war from the weblogic
console.
2.) Tweaked the "startWeblogic.cmd" file (I'm in NT) to add the wlpi-worklist.jar
file into the classpath. (this is all in the reamde file in %wlint_Home%/samples/bpm_api/jsp/)
This works at first, as I can get to the login screen, but as soon as I log in, I
get a "Classnotfound error" saying it can't find my home interface for my session
bean.
So, I figured, "Must not be in the classpath (somehow)". I added my bean .jar file
into the classpath, and then try again. I get a different error that says "Classnotfound
error" for the EJBHelper. Same error happens on the fat client in both cases.
I can simply take out my startWeblogic classpath changes, and restart the server,
and the fat-client works again (but the jsp worklist doesn't not -- no surprise.)
Has anyone been able to get the jsp-based worklist to work with a process that uses
an EJB?

Dunning Letter in Different Language.

Hi,
Can we have Dunning letters in different languages for customers? For example if the customer is Spain he shall be receiving dunning letter in Spanish language, if the customer is France he shall be receiving dunning letter from French language and if customer is in Italy he shall be receiving dunning letter in Italian language.
So I need to know where exactly the change needs to be made. Is it in SAP script where we need to define the conditions based upon customer country print the letter in local language?
Regards,
Arvind.

Hi Arvind,
The SAP script you can create in different lanquages (the same with the text elements, if you use them)
When you say in the custumer that the Language is EN you wil have a English dunning letter, when ES in Spanish, ......

Converting a web-based text page to XMP

I have a live, web-based text feed that contains all of the metadata I want to capture. I want to tag this metadata to video and image files, and I want that information to stay with the video and image files throughout the production process (ie. the metadata information should be available in transcoded copies of the video files and so on).
I'd also like to use this metadata to create data-driven graphics in Photoshop. At this stage I can get basic datasets working in PS, but I have to cut-and-paste the info from some cells into a .csv file first. Ideally I'd like to eliminate this manual step as it introduces the possibility of human error, which is what I'm trying to eliminate in the first place.
Photoshop can't read the whole text file as a dataset because I think it's in an array (I'm not sure, I don't get it), and from my understanding datasets will only work with .csv files.
It should be a relatively simple process to grab information from a live, web-based text feed and convert it to useable metadata, but I find the XMP SDK completely indecipherable. Apologies for my ignorance but I have no coding experience whatsoever and it seems like it's written in an alien language. Can someone please offer some advice as to how I go about this? Attached is a copy of the text file I'm trying to use.
Thanks to anyone with enough smarts or nerd power to crack it... it's beyone me, I've wasted weeks staring at a blank page and I'm more confused now than when I started.

Hi,
what you are planning to do seems technicaly possible with our XMP C++ SDK. But you really need programming skills in C/C++ to realize this project.

Samy
