Heirarchy input value help

Hi,
Have been referring to the sap documentation for Heirarchy variable input which uses a
webtemplate with a button element which shows the heirarchy value help in a html view.
This actually works fine.
But I have a variable form with an input field and wish to pass the value selected by means of this heirarchy value help as the input in the input form.How could I possibly do that .
Rgds

Basheer,
Appreciate your quck response,had referred this earlier.But my query input variable is a
heirarchy enabled variable ,while this refers to normal variables only .
The value help here in the VC model only retrieves values for leaf nodes into the input form while for root nodes it shows "no applicable data" in the output table.
The query executes fine on the BW side with proper output.Also while testing query in
"Define/test query" in VC the query fails to execute . What could possibly be the problem?
Thank You
Rgds

Help Needed in Input Value Help of Custom Set attribute

Hi All,
We have maintained value table for custom set type attribute. We generated UI configuration for this set type and brought it into the web UI. But, we did not get the value help on the UI.
We are trying to get the value help by implementing the BADI crm_prdgenset_valuehelp. This BADI returns object of type cl_bsp_wd_valuehelp_f4descr.
PFB the code that is showing up the Value help icon but it is not showing any values.
DATA: lv_valuehelp_descriptor type ref to cl_bsp_wd_valuehelp_f4descr.
*    lv_fname_prefix = 'STRUCT'.
   ls_map-context_attr = component. "ZCSDR_PRD_CLS
   ls_map-f4_attr = 'KEY'.
   INSERT ls_map INTO TABLE lt_outmap.
   INSERT ls_map INTO TABLE lt_inmap.

Any pointers on this is really helpful.
Thanks,

Hi Chand,
Sorry for the late response. As far as i recollect, i guess we have enhanced the setter getter methods and written logic in the get-v method.
Let me know if the issue is resolved.

OTL (Additional Input Value) help greatly appreciated

Hi there,
I have a requirement where we wish to use OTL for a front end to a number of allowances which require the population of additional input values on the element. These could be for example miles travelled or the method of travel.
Does anyone know how this can be done?
I am envisaging creating an element with the following input values :-
Hours
Multiple
Rate
Rate Code
Miles
I need the additional field to be displayed on the timecard. Does this require custom timecard templates? How do I make the additional field on the timecard populate the Miles input value when the time entry is transferred from OTL to BEE.
Any advice on this would be very greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks and have a great week
Kev

You need to follow these steps:
1. Add the input values to your Element, check element link, include the element to your element set, run "generate flexfield process" with the above element set.
2. Create mapping components for each of the new fields which you want to show on the timecard to let system know which column these attributes will get mapped to.
3. Add the mapping components to your receiving application's Retrieval and Deposit process.
4. Now modify your timecard layouts to show the additional fields you want to show.

Variables/Input Parameters Value help not showing texts

Hello,
I have created a crystal report based on a calculation view in Crystal Reports for Enterprise 4.1 SP5, which has a input parameter on the field "Region". For the value help, I am using a custom view based on T005U in which I have made sure that RegionName field is present in the "Label Column" property of the Region field.(Required for viewing descriptions of LOVs).
In the crystal report, while previewing data in the query builder, I am able to see the value help for the input parameter in the prompt screen, which displays only the key part, but does not display the description of it. Moreover, after accepting the prompt value, the preview runs into an error(as shown below). Please note that I get the error below only when Region is a part of the output fields of the query.
Instead of input parameter, when I create a variable on the region field in the main calculation view, with the same value help view, I am able to do data preview in the query builder as also data appears in the report on running the query. But, just as in the case of input parameter value help in the prompt screen, even over here, I am only able to see the key part and not the description.
Are variables/input parameter LOV's supposed to display descriptions or just the key part? As also, any reason why I should be getting this error while using Input parameter?
Kindly let me know if I am missing something in the development of this report.
Regards,
Alston

Hi,
I hope you are taking the BEx Query as a source to the crystal report. In the BEx query check region info object should is maintained as Text and Key. If text is not maintained over there you will not be getting text in Crystal reports.

Limiting the value help for a user input variable as required

Hello Gurus,
I have a requirement :-
Restrict the value help for a user input variable in a query to only a required set of values instead of the default behaviour. ie instead of having all the values in the master data of that characteristics in the value help.
How do I go about it? - Do I have to explore the precalculated value set feature?
If so, please tell me how to go about it in BI 7.I would appreciate if you could explain it in detail rather than sending me a URL because I have gone through most of them but Iam yet to figure out how to create the broadcast setting and subsequent steps.
Thanks for your time.
Regards,
Kris_Hitman

I believe if the User doesn't want to see any particular values in F4 help then it means they are not intrested in viewing the transaction data related to those values.
So why don't you restrict that object with the required values. Then the F4 help will automatically display only those values.

Some fields from R/3 have automatic value help for input field on WD

Hello,
we have imported a Model from RFC/JCo (ABAP) with several fields. One of them is "IWAER" of SimpleType Iwaer and "Built-In-Type" string in J2EE. Though the enumeration of this type is empty, WebDynpro mystically generates a value help if the type is assignet to an ImputField. On the ABAP-side component type is IWAER with data type CUKY and in domain WAERS which has a value table TCURC (instead of fixed values in a value range).
Where/why does WD find out that this is a currency-field and where do the values in the value selector come from?
Best regards,
Manuel

Hi,
at least for the ModelData-Connection (BAPI-Call) there is no data being transferred besides one value for each field.
I don't know if the MetaData-Connection of JCo is able to get more information (e.g. key-value-pairs for the domain or type the field belongs to,..) than just the structure of the interface.
-> Where and how do these EVS-values come from without doing something?
Best regards,
Manuel

How to populate read only input field or text view form value help only

Hi experts,
I have one requirement to populate a read-only field or text view from value help.
User cant put any value there.value comes only from the value help.
For example,
when we read context using Code Wizard,we cant type any value there.value only comes from value help.
How to implement that functionality?
Please reply.
Thanks in advance,
Subhasis.

Yes it is possible.
1.Create a context Attribute and then bind this attribute to the Text view UI element.
2. read context attribute and then set value to the context attribute like this way.
DATA:
    elem_context1                        TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element,
    stru_context1                        TYPE if_first=>element_context ,
    item_potxt                          LIKE stru_context-potxt.
get element via lead selection
elem_context1 = wd_context->get_element( ).
stru_context1-potxt = 'PO'.
elem_context1->set_attribute(
    VALUE = stru_context1
    name   = 'POTXT'

Unable to provide input value to InfoObject in SEM-BCS

Hello BI Experts,
I have created an infoobject 'ABC' in BI and have flagged 'With Master Data' and 'With Text'. This infoobject has an navigational attribute 'XYZ'(XYZ also has 'With Master Data' and 'With Text').
When I go to T.Code UCWB(BCS Workbench), I could able to see the infoobject 'ABC' and when I try to create master data for 'ABC', I do not see the input field for 'XYZ'. I want to input values in Infoobject 'XYZ' through this screen(SEM-BCS) and not through BI(right-click on infoobject 'Maintain Master Data). Please let me know, if I am missing anything.

Hi Shekar
I find the ICD setup very 'picky'! If you get one thing wrong, it doesn't work. I have detailed below the steps I usually advise people to tek. Check your setup and see if this helps.
1. Define Plan Type, Compensation Category = Others.
2. Define Plan. Link to Plan Type. Plan Usage = May not be in program. On Not in program Tab - define sequence, currency, enrollment rate (per pay period?), activity reference period (Monthly). Your settings may need to be different. On Plan details tab, enter plan years.
3. Plan enrollment requirements. On the general tab, plan sub tab, make sure the method = EXPLICIT. this allows the user to enter an input value for the ICD. THIS MAY WELL BE THE SOURCE OF YOUR PROBLEM!
Make sure the CERTIFICATION region is UNTICKED. This can also cause ICDs not to work.
ALLOWS UNRESTRICTED ENROLLMENT must be TICKED. Otherwise there is no eligibility to the ICD.
On the rates subregion, make sure the run strt date is set to ENTERABLE.
4. standard Rates form. Make sure the ACTIVITY TYPE and TAX TYPE are entered. Select the ELEMENT and the INPUT VALUE and TICK the ELEMENT AND INPUT VALUE REQUIRED field.
On the processing Information tab - TICK ASSIGN ON ENROLMENT, DISPLAY ON ENROLLMENT and PROCESS EACH PAY PERIOD. Enter PER PAY PERIOD AMOUNT in VALUE PASSED TO PAYROLL and OTHER in COMPENSATION CATEGORY.
Let me know if this works!
Regards
Tim

How do you use user defined error messages in Value Help?

Hi,
I'm currently working on a Modifiable Value Help Selector in Web Dynpro Java, and I want to use a user defined error message when I validate the values entered by a user. Currently, it's returning its default error message ("Character <string> does not match...").
Since the project requires a different error message, is there a way to override the default error message and use my defined error message instead?
Thanks!

Hi Angelo,
I am not sure why message area is showing both Custom and inbuilt messages but you can try the following:
i guess you must be using reportContextAttribute exception for showing Error messages on the input fields as well.in that case you can disable the message area so messages will appear only on the Context level ie; on input fields.
For other messages apart from validation messages you can enable the message area before reporting the exception.
make sure the boolean context variable which will be used for enabling and disabling the message area should have Readonly property set as true.
I am not sure whether this is the only solution for this but you can try and see if it works.

Hide Toolbar and Value help drop downlist

Hi,
I created a IF with a Value help drop down list. I also make use of the Hide Toolbar options. The drop down list has an input like:
key - text (eg. 0001 - Holiday)
The pdfMode is "UpdateDataInPdf".
When i run my wd everything works fine. What i want to do is this: when the user push the button "next" i want to show the IF in a read-only mode. What i did, is that when the user push to button i change the PdfMode from "UpdateDateInPdf" to "GeneratePdf" (also tried "UsePdf") and change the "enabled" property to false.
What happens is, the Adobe toolbar is back and the value help dorp downlist shows the key instead of the text.
If i don't change the "enabled" property it works well, but than it's still possible to change data in the form.
I am using NW04 SP16.
Hope somebody can helps me.
Kind regards,
Maarten Duits

Hi Maarten
in general, right now there is no standard (i.e. non-hack) way to make a physical interactive PDF form read-only.
The only sure way this would work in your process is to send the data back to the backend and have a second (practically identical) template ready in the background to generate a read-only version of what the user saw previously.

Text Entry Box--Advanced Actions--Conditional Statement--Double quotes in literal input value

Hello forums,
I'm new to the forums (and Captivate in general), but I'm having a real problem carrying out a tutorial design and I think you may be my only hope. Let me explain what I want to do and the difficulty that I'm having:
I'm an instruction librarian at a university, and I'm designing an interactive tutorial for English 100 students to complete in order to become familiar with how to search the library catalog. What I've done is taken a screenshot of the catalog search page, made it the background of a slide in Captivate (vers. 6), and placed a text entry box over the search bar in the screenshot. The idea is for the students to conduct a simulated search by choosing one of three suggested search string formulations, and depending on the search string they enter, the tutorial will jump to a slide featuring a screenshot of what the actual search results would look like. The idea is to emphasize the use of keywords over full-sentence phrases, and the use of double quotation marks to enclose multi-word search terms.
So I've set the action for the TEB to "Execute Advanced Actions" and then created some IF/THEN statements in the "Advanced Actions" pop-up window (with action type set to 'conditional'). The script is such that if the student enters the first search option (how does sleep affect college students) in the TEB, the tutorial jumps to 1 slide, if they enter the second option (college students AND sleep), featuring a Boolean operator (AND), the tutorial jumps to a 2nd slide, and if they enter the third option ("college students" AND sleep) with the double quotes around "college students" and the Boolean operator, the tutorial should jump to a 3rd slide. This action script works fine for the first two input options, but I can't make it work for the third search option.
I think that it has something to do with the fact that the third input option features double quote marks, and this seems to throw off the script (I tried a quote-less input value for the third IF/THEN just to make sure that it would work jumping to the 3rd slide and it did), and I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to how I can get around this issue. Again, I need it to work so that if the student enters "college students" AND sleep, with the quote marks and the Boolean operator, the tutorial will jump to a slide showing the search results if those search terms were used in a real search of the catalog.
I'd be extremely grateful for any help that anyone here can give me, we've been trying to make our online tutorials more engaging and interactive (and therefore more interesting), and I think this would be a great way to teach students about using quotes in their catalog searches.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Andrew Wilk
College Library
UW-Madison

The tutorial is for a "how to use catalog searching" instruction in an undergraduate library session. We use boolean operators (AND, OR, NOT) to combine search terms, ex. to search for books about the sleeping habits of college students, I would enter "college students AND sleep." Because "college students" is a multi-word phrase to describe one concept, I need to put quotation marks around the phrase to prevent the catalog from searching for the individual words separately, so the most correct search becomes ["college students" AND sleep] with quotation marks around only "college students," a user-typed "AND," and the word "sleep" (no q-marks).
A colleague of mine worked out a pretty cool (if complicated) solution that I'll share if anyone is interested. Since the q-marks where the problem, we've set it up so that the TEB validates the response for the search string with q-marks around "college students." If they enter it correctly, the tutorial jumps to the corresponding slide. The attempt # is set to 1, and if the user fails to enter the validated phrase (they misspell or use one of the other response options) then the TEB is set to run an Advanced Actions Script in which the other two options are scripted in IF/THEN statements that cause, when the term is entered correctly, the tutorial to jump to their corresponding slides. We've created another tab of IF/THEN statements that say that if the response is NOT equal to one of these response options, then the slide restarts (technically the slide "jumps" back to itself and starts over) and the user gets another chance to start the cycle over again.
I know this is confusing (I had a really hard time explaining it in words), so if anyone is interested I could make a Jing video when I have some time.
Thank you for all your suggestions

How do I pass input values from a html page to a jsf page

hi,
In my project,for front view we have used html pages.how can I get input values from that html page into my jsf page.for back end purpose we have used EJB3.0
how can I write jsf managed bean for accessing these entities.we have used session facade design pattern and the IDE is netbeans5.5.
pls,help me,very urgent
thanx in advance

Simplest way is to rewrite html page into jsf page.
You can use session bean in your managed bean like this:
import javax.naming.Context;
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
public class ManagedBean {
private Context ctx;
private Object res;
// session bean interface
private Service service;
          public ManagedBean() {
            try{
                 ctx = new InitialContext();
                 res = ctx.lookup("Service");
                 service = (Service) res;
           catch(Exeption e){

Date format is not working properly for Calender value help

Hi Experts,
We have two problems.
1. We want to change the format of date displayed. We want format of dd-MMM-yy. For that we have created one Simple
Type Dictionary Object with Displaying format dd-MMM-yy. It is working
fine for the non editable UI. But once I apply the dictionary type
object as data type for an input field, probem happens. Once the user
choose a date from calender value help the value in the input field is
coming like 01-011-12 not like 01-Jan-12.
The date format is not changing from the calender. But if we set the
display format of the dictionary object to MM-dd-yy or MM/dd/yy or
dd/MM/yy or dd-MM-yy the format conversion from calender to input field
is happening properly.
The only problem once we put MMM in place of MM for the input field
where user is selecting from a calender value help.
2. We want to restrict users from entering the value manually for date input field. The user
should be able only to enter value by selecting from calender value
help.
Please give suitable solution for these problems
Thanks
