Guide on how to use a self programmed BAPI in Visual Composer

Hi all,
I am absolutely new to modelling with the Visual Composer, so probably this is a fairly easy question for most of you, but it's driving ME nuts.
I have a BAPI in my ERP6 system. This BAPI was programmed by some other guy (not working here anymore) and it is used to output some time management data for a user. It expects a personnel number as input and is then supposed to return the amount of time an employee worked that day.
Now what I need/want to do is this:
a user logs on to the portal with his user-id and I want to create an iView on the first page that displays his/her remaining time of work for that day.
All I have is the user-id, from which I need to query the personnel number from infotype105 and then use this number as input for the BAPI - And I want to do this with the Visual Composer!
Can someone point me to some good documentation how to get started with using a BAPI in Visual Composer?
I have a sesond problem right now, that has something to do with necessary rights for system connection or system alias - not sure:
Right now, I can't see any BAPI in my backend-system, because I seem to be mssing the necessary rights to use the system connection I created - although group everyone has read access to the connection an I setup SSO between portal and ERP system.
So maybe solme of you gurus might be able to point me to some good documentation on these topics, as I'm kinda stuck here

Hi,
Yes its very much necessary to do the user mapping untill unless if you did not do the single sign on Trust .
It is necessary to get the data from the Back end i.e your Ssytem.
Steps :
Go to Useradministartion->find your VC user (using which user you are logging to the VC)->CLICK ON MODIFY->Select usermapping Tab->select the System alias ->give the credentials of the System (i.e Back end) then Save.
After that Check the Connection Test for the Syetm you connected .
Steps:
System Administartion->Syste configuration->Visual Composer-> fRight Click on your Backend Sytem->select Connection test->do the connecton test .
if the results are failed means the usermapping is wrong.

Please resolve my issue.

I am a professional photographer of many years standing and at the moment I have a student for 12 months, who I am teaching how to use various Adobe programs, but to introduce her to video editing, I have purchased Adobe Premier Elements 13 which is less complicated than the Premier Pro that I use. The program works perfectly, except for one thing.... when adding a title to the short video sequence we are working with, if I use a particular font (Metallophile Sp8) which I obtained from my Adobe Typekit, it crashes the program,.... all other fonts work perfectly....can anybody help me please?

clivephoto
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running on? And what video card/graphics card does this computer use?
From your description, can I assume that this Mettallophile Sp8 font is being recognized by Premiere Elements 13 to the extent
that it can be seen and remains seen in Titler's list of font choices - even after the crashes?
If you opened a new project, imported nothing, and created a text title in the Titler with this Mettallophile Sp8 font, does the program crash?
Please review the following which discuss fonts and Premiere Elements and determine if anything in it helps.

How to use a self-signed certificate

Hello,
I am having some troubles understanding how to use a self-signed certificate. I have created one using Keychain Access -> Create Certificate but it never asked me for the private key and it never told me where the certificate is stored. How am I supposed to use it?
Typically I would like to do two things:
1) use the certificate to for example sign an email or other document so that the recipient can verify that it was really me. I understand the concept that they have to have my public key and use it to somehow decrypt something that I have encrypted with my private key. But where is my private key? As mentioned, the certificate creation process never at any point asked me to provide a private key. An example using this process to sign an email would be really appreciated.
2) I want to be able to decrypt a message that someone sends to me after encrypting it with my public key. Again, I need my private key, where is it? I was never asked to choose one!
Please note that i am familiar with the whole process using openSSL ssh via command line, I just need to understand how to achieve the same thing using the certificate creation procedure provided via Keychain Access.
In short, now thta I have created my certificate, how do I use it? Examples for dummies would be really appreciated
Thanks in advance
/Andrea

Can you import the CA cert under “Your Certificates.”, delete the CA cert, switched to “Authorities”, re-imported the CA cert, and restarted Firefox.

How to use another java program to stop this running prpgram???

      System.exit(0);
    System.exit(0);
}But I hope to use another java program to stop it when it is running instead of pressing CRTL + C to stop it.
How to do it??
Any example??
Thanks a lot!!

Sorry, I think i did not express cearly. It is my fault.
I re-write my requirements again:
I have
Class AAA1.java,
Class AAA2.java,
Class AAA3.java,
Class AAA20.java...
etc
they all look like the program I posted first time,, once executed, they will run for ever, and they will be stopped until I press CRTL + C;
Now I hope to use another java class StopProgram.java to stop them 1 by 1 or at once instead of pressing CRTL + C;
In this case, how to code this StopProgram.java ??
Thanks

What is access sequence tables and how to use them in program?

hi all, I know a little about SD and access sequence tables, but I get a requriment like this:
condition type is a paramater
The condition types allowed in this report are: Note: A list of pre-defined condition types with their corresponding access sequence tables will be defined.
How can I make it? How can I use it in program to get the price?

Hi,
An access sequence is a search strategy with the aid of which the SAP
System searches for valid condition records of a certain condition type.
For example, you can stipulate for a price that the SAP System first
searches for a price for a specific plant, and then for a generally
applicable price.
For condition types for which you wish to maintain conditions with their
own validity period, you must assign an access sequence. With this, you
define which fields the SAP System checks in searching for a valid
condition record.
e.g. When you create condition record (e.g. Purchasing condition record) you enter condition type, system asks you the key combination to enter the entries. These key combinations are nothing but the access sequence. On the basis of combination of condition table it will search record. e.g. when u maintain condition record with acc seq Material/plant combination, it will transfer the same record in PO when u enter same material and plant in the PO.
Example:
An access sequence has been assigned to condition type PB00 so that
prices can be maintained in purchasing info records and contracts.
No access sequence has been assigned to condition type RC00 because it
does not have a validity period of its own. In the standard system, it is
always maintained simultaneously with the price and is valid for the
period of the price.

Any guides on how to use UIScrollView?

Hi,
having difficulty implementing UIScrollView.
I have UIViewController which has UIView on it. I have changed UIView class inside IB to UIScrollView, but have no idea how to make it to scroll vertically?
At the moment its static and doesn't scroll at all.
On my UIScrollView I have label, image and textview and text view length is unknown as it is loaded from database.
What I want to achieve is that if textview doesn't fit on current view I want to be able scroll up and down. Do I need to have another UIView inside UIScrollView and place all my components on UIView instead of UIScrollView? Do I need to resize UIScrollView myself to be big enough for my components to fit?
Any help is really appreciated.

Don't know about tutorials for smart mailboxes, but I would suggest playing around with them as they are fairly self explanatory, as in you can filter either messages or to dos according to the rules you can see and choose. You can also create a smart folder that will filter messages from other smart folders, and so on and so forth.
If you mean inbox, sent... for "standard" mailbox, you are correct. You cannot add a "sub mailbox" to these, you can only add a "sub mailbox" - mailbox within a mailbox - to a mailbox you create on your mac or if you have an IMAP account, under that IMAP mailbox/folder structure.
As for best practice, again it will be up to you depending on how you use Mail and what type of messages you get, how many you get, and what you want to achieve. Some users filter their incoming mail to smart mailboxes directly and view in smart mailboxes, others create rules to move their email or set up automatic actions - see mail>preferences>rules to create rules - and view the mailboxes the incoming mail was moved to others just work straight from their inbox and drag and drop manually, and nothing stops you from using a combination of the above depending on the type of emails you receive and what you want to do with them.
hope this helps

How to use a Matlab Program within Labview

I saw in this forum that many users are using some matlab program
executed in Labview program. I have actually Labview 7.1 and would like
to use some of my matlab program in Labview. Is there an easy way to do
it ?
Thanks

The MATLAB Script function is kinda buried in the function palette, and

How to call a BAPI from Visual Composer

hi,
I am new to Visual composer. can some body give me step by step information of calling a bapi or RFC from VC.
Thanks in advance,
Gopi

Hi Gopi,
Steps involed for calling RFC/BAPI from VC
1. Choose Model->Select Data Services.
(Alternatively, click the Data button in the task panel toolbar.)
2. In the Portal field at the right end of the main toolbar, enter the URL of the portal from
which you can access the back-end system used by the iView.
For example, you could enter: http://<yourportal>:50000/..
3. Click the traffic light icon to the right of the Portal field. The portal Welcome screen
appears.
4. Log on to the portal as a user that exists in the connected back-end system, or which is
mapped to a user of that system. Click OK.
Once a connection to the portal is established, a list of system aliases defined in the
portal system landscape appears in the System drop-down
list.
From the System drop-down list, choose the SAP system that contains the function module.
6. Under Search SAP System, click the Search tab and in the Name field, enter the search string: <RFC/BAPI name>. Then click Search (at the bottom).
5. A list of function modules matching the search string is displayed.
7. Drag the function module/bapi from the Data task panel into the
workspace: The data service is added to your model.
8. Periodically save your work. To do so, choose File->Save Model.
Finally test the iview in VC.
In the workspace, drag your mouse from the Input port of the data service, <inputform> and dragn your mouse from the outut port from the data service <tabelview and etc..>
or
Go through the this documentation...
