How-to add a custom Web Dynpro iView to the MSS Employee Profile

Hello everybody,
i have created a small How-to guide of how to add a custom iView/Web Dynpro application to the standard MSS Employee Profile for ECC 6.0.
The How-to guide can be found <a href="https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/profile/2007/04/15/How-toaddacustomWebDynproiViewtotheMSSEmployee+Profile">here</a>
I hope its of any value.
cheers,
Markus

Hello Luca,
unfortunatelly it wont work. A WDA Application does not have access to the Floorplan Manager for XSS Applications. So until SAP develop an interface, you have to stick for such a task to WDJ.

How to mapping Bapi_EeCatimesheet with Web Dynpro iview

I have problem with CATS:
1. mapping field from Web Dynpro iview with Bapi_EeCatimesheet_Worklist
Column: Activity = Bapi_EeCatimesheet_Worklist_input_Out.???
Column: xxx = ???
Variable as TimeSheet of SAP Easy View
2. How to insert Employee timesheet into SAP System by Bapi

Hi,
At first time the ApplicationParameter was not displayed among the mappable properties. After that I changed the ApplicationParameter property of the WD iView (so it became different from the default one) and created a new room template. What happened ? At the new template I could map to room_id to the ApplicationParameter. Interesting, not?
One other thing: What do you think about the following ?
1. First creating a "Concat Strings" extension to create a string like "room_id=<room_id>"
2. Creating an other extension and mapping the newly created string to the ApplicationParameter property
3. Getting the parameter from WD with the help of getRequestParameter(java.lang.String key)
I have not tried it yet, but I plan to do it.

How to add a custom web project to creator?

I am using Creator EA2. I want to add a custom web project, which is created based on standard web project, to Creator. I wonder if it is possible by creating a jar and put it into a directory or I should develop a plugin with layout description files, templates?
Thanks
jnewbie

If your struts-enabled project is already compatible with Creator (i.e. you can open it in the IDE) you can get close to what you way using the project template facility available in EA2.
Select Tools->Project Template Manager. From the template manager dialog, click the Add... button and browse to your struts project. The project should appear under the My Templates node in the dialog. Close the dialog and bring up the New Project Wizard. You should see a new project category called My Templates which should contain an entry to your custom project. You can now select this project and proceed through the wizard which will actually clone the project for you as if it were a custom project type.

How to make changes on Web Dynpro iView.

Dear all
We are using EP 7.0. Now I need to upload two documents to be accessed with link from a portal iView for HR documents, which was created using Web Dynpro. As I am new to Web dynpro, can any body help me to make these changes. I have already installed NWDS 7.0.9 on my system. Also tell me steps if it needs to configure with my portal.
Please revert me if anyone of you want more clarification about the issue.
With regards
Virender Sharma

Hi Virender,
Now 1 thing is clear you need to customize the application. This is how you can do it:
The thing is that if you know the person who had developed this application earlier, then you can directly get the application from him or the other way is as already told above, i.e, If you want to add extra links to webdynpro application then you have to modify the webdynpro project. To do this you need ear(Enterprise Archive)/Project structure zip file to upload into portal and modify the webdynpro appln and deploy back into portal.
1) Once you get the project open NWDS> Goto File> Select Import-->import the project.
2) Open the project by double clicking on the imported project in the Webdynpro Explorer.
3) Expand the project node> expand webdynpro node> expand web dynpro components node> expand the view node> open the view by double clicking on the view name> now you can see the view similar to what you see in the portal(you are on the layout tab)> In the outline(Left hand side downside of the NWDS) you can see the rootuielement container> right click on the same and select Insert child>Add link to URL(select this component)> again insert the same child> you need to set the properties of these child as per your requirement> once you have done the same save the project>move to application node inside the webdynpro node> expand the same> right click on the application> select deploy new archive and run> enter the sdm password--> check for the desired output.
To deploy the modified webdynpro application you need to know the SDM password
Also before deploying the application you will need to do the following settings:
1) Goto the menu bar and click on windows.
2) Select preferences.
3) Goto the SAP J2EE engine .
4) Enter the required details which you can get from the basis person
5) Close the preference window
6) In the RHS downside of your NWDS you can find the J2EE engine tab> click on that> There is a refresh button on top of that and check that server, dispatcher and sdm node are green in color .
7) Now you can deploy your application.
Hope it helps.
Regards.

How to add a custom web apps root page?

I saw in Jan 2013 System Update the following:
"Render a custom page when accessing the root URL of a Web App. For example, if you have a “blog” Web App, the items can be made accessible at /blog/my-blog-post, and you’ll have the ability to customize the /blog page"
Could someone point me in the correct direction for instructions on how to make use of this feature.
Couldn't appear to find a link from the Blog release notes to anything, and also tried trawling through support and forums for a suitable post.
Closest I found was one about using sub-folders for web app items.
I've tried adding a page in website admin, with the same URL as the web app, but it simply throws an error as it clashes with Web App url.
Cheers
Mike

Hi Mike.
Because a folder can have a index.html Web apps in the past you could not access that ability. You had to make a page and you could not SEO call it the same as your web app.
SO
Your web app is called Blog.
You can now make a folder in your root called Blog.
In that folder you can create a page and give it a url of index.html
Now when you access the a web app directly - www.yoursite.com/yourwebapp or www.yoursite.com/yourwebapp/index/html you will access that index page.
You can also put other pages under that folder if you want too.

Web dynpro iview in web page composer ?

Hi All,
I am developing one Web site by using Web Page Composer. Can anyone help me for how to use Web Dynpro iview on web page.
Regards,
Rahul.

HI Rahul,
As of now we can not include a Web Dynpro iView on the WPC page like other iViews.
But you can try to create a URL iView from Web Dynpro application
and then add that URL iView to your page.

Portal theme not picked for SAP Web Dynpro Iview

Hi,
We have used light framework page for our portal and all the iviews display the content within the iviews in the same set of colors (blue for buttons). However, for a WD java content, I have created an SAP Web Dynpro iView and the contents displayed here appear in the SAP colors without picking those set for the portal.
The same application parameters display the portal colors when we use the Web Dynpro Proxy iview.
Any idea how I can make the SAP Web Dynpro iView appear like the other portal iviews?
Note: The stylesheet property for the iview is already entered (ur), and I have also set the 'Supply Portal stylesheet' property to 'Yes'.
Please provide your inputs.
Thanks,
Vinay

Hi ,
In ABAP Webdynpro for similar problem we used WDFORCEEXTERNAL Sheet property of WDA.
The Web Dynpro framework automatically compares the versions of the portal and Web Dynpro
for ABAP style sheets. If the Web Dynpro for ABAP has a newer version, the WDA style sheet is used. This avoids unattractive rendering and JavaScript errors.You can deactivate this behavior again using the WDFORCEEXTERNALSTYLESHEET application parameter of WDA.See also SAP Notes 1033496 .
If you use the stylesheet of the portal to display the application, the rendering may not appear correctly and Javascript errors can occur(If portal style sheet is lower than WD).
Though Iam not familiar with WD java , the property force portal style sheet in WD java application should be enough to make WD accept portal theme.

How to implement result states in custom web dynpro components

Hi all,
My callable objects are custom implemented -web dynpro Componenets
How am i to implement the result states in them so that i can use them to take logical decisions.?
There is decision dialog component in Process Control Callable Object. It has Exit states. I need my component also to have exit states like that
Help me to implement this.
Points assured for help

Hi Shobhendra,
You can define the result states of your custom Web Dynpro callable object like this in the getDescription() method:
//add success result state
IGPCOResultStateInfo success = technicalDescription.addResultState("Success");
success.setDescriptionKey("Success");
//add failure result state
IGPCOResultStateInfo failure = technicalDescription.addResultState("Failed");
failure.setDescriptionKey("Failure");
And in the custom comelete() method (which will be called at the end of the execution of the WDP comp from GP) you can set the actual resultstate at runtime:
executionContext.setResultState("Success");
or
executionContext.setResultState("Failed");
The result states defined in the WDP callable object will appear in the the GP design time and you can set target for each result state.
For more info on how to implement the WDP callable object check the doc:
<a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/50d74ada-0c01-0010-07a8-8c118d408e59">Implementating Web Dynpro callable Object</a>

Extending MDM ResultSet iView with custom web dynpro

I built a MDM Result set(which is displaying fine), and a web dynpro iview to receive the events from the ResultSet and put them on to a page, added to a role and added to my userid etc.
But when I invoke the event from the MDM ResultSet Standard iView, no data is coming from the ResultSet.
Yes, I am aware that I need to make sure the namespace and name of the event should be same in the source and target iviews. I made sure of that.
The event is being invoked, for sure, but no data. (Because if I didn't catch, the target iView is throwing NullpointerException for want of parameter passed by the EPCF event)
EPCF event is reaching the target, but no data, what so ever.
I tried with different fields(Columns) of the Resultset, but no use.
I got a doubt. The client said, they used MDM 5.5 SP04 software for the Business Package, but MDM 5.5 SP03 MDM Connectors, and ofcourse the server itself is MDM 5.5 SP03. Does this have any influence in the problem I mentioned ?
Another issue is the naming of the event or the namespace. Are there any guidelines for that ? I gave the name and namespace to be "ShowItemDetails" and "urn:com.oi.ecat.mdm.epcfevent". Are these OK ?
Thank you very much for your help,
Prasad Nutalapati

Hi Narendra/Sidharth,
I have been referring the same blog below of Vinay for developing the WDJ application:
Importing Records from MDM BP ResultSet iView to Excel:--https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/504814b6-da5f-2b10-0dbd-e5ee597c74a5
I have created an event in the ResultSet iview with the details below :
Event Name = "Export"
nameSpace = "urn:com.sap.tc.webdynpro.exporttocsv"
Parameter is of type [MDM Search] and the value is "value"
And in the Web Dynpro app,following is the code
public void wdDoInit()
    //@@begin wdDoInit()
    String nameSpace = "urn:com.sap.tc.webdynpro.exporttocsv";
    String event = "Export";
    WDPortalEventing.subscribe(nameSpace,event,wdThis.wdGetExportAction());
    //@@end
In the Event handler below,Currently I have removed the rest of code to fetch result from MDM ,I am just trying to access the Search object (i.e string value) and I am getting the value as null.
Can you please tell me what is going wrong....
public void onActionExport(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent, java.lang.String value )
    //@@begin onActionExport(ServerEvent)
    wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("The search object:"+value);
    //@@end

Web Dynpro iView - how to pass URL parameters?

I have a Web Dynpro application that is housed in the Enterprise Portal. We have a requirement where we need to provide an external link to the iView/Web Dynpro component - for the sake of this discussion, assume it's email. As part of this URL link, we need to pass a parameter that will cause the Web Dynpro app to fetch some data.
The Web Dynpro has a startup plug parameter - call it 'id'.
I can invoke the Web Dynpro application directly, and pass the id paramter on the URL - the application can see the parameter just fine. However, when I try and do the same via a Roles-based URL, the parameter does not survive. I've tried two different methods:
http://host:port/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=ROLES://path/to/iview&id=1234
and
http://host:port/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=ROLES://path/to/iview!26id=1234
neither of which work.
is there a way to do what I'm trying to do? Note that the 'id' paramter is dynamic - I can't code it in the Web Dynpro iView configuration.

Hi,
please try the following:
http://host:port/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=ROLES://path/to/iview&DynamicParameter=<encode(id=1234)>
The value of the DynamicParameter value must bei encoded.
For details please have a lool to

Web Dynpro iView Translation

Hi Everyone,
We have a requirement at my client to deliver the portal in two languages (Chinese and English). When I change the language of the user from English to Chinese (China) the portal content langauge changes (TLN, Masthead etc. are displayed in Chinese), however when I navigate to any Web Dynpro iViews e.g. Bank Information (ESS iView), I still see everything in English. I have checked my Web Dynpro Content Admin and both zh_CN, zh_HK are available.
My Second question is if I add some verbiage to this iView via WDP Personalization (Ctrl + right click), can this verbiage also be translated? If so, how?
Thanks for all your help!
- Osman

How to set mask in web dynpro input fields

i am looking for how to set mask in web dynpro input fields.
Please suggest

Argha,
As Maksim suggested, read my weblog -- it is an exact answer for such "masking" (/people/valery.silaev/blog/2005/11/29/800format-your-way)
Next, you may not add custom js files to WebDynpro and change the way WD processes client input, so there is no way to force user to type only digits and to insert hyphens automatically.
