How to create a variant of an existing master page

After struggling with this for an afternoon, I hit on a fairly simple way to duplicate and modified master page file, since RH8 doesn't seem to have a method for copying them, and editing certain sections is difficult.
In the Windows Explorer view (ie. NOT in the RH interface) create a copy of the file you want to base your new Master Page file from. If you are using source control, you'll need to make the copy read/write as well.
Rename the copy.
Open the copy in a text editor and change the topic title in both the <meta name="topic-comment" content="topic title" /> line and the <title> line. You should also change the reference to any icon art you may use. Save the new file.
Open the project in RoboHelp.
In the Project Set-up pod right click on Master Pages and click Import. Select your new master page and import it.
Hope this is helpful.

Hi Udit,
Unfortunately there is no way to copy a view from one component another the way we understand copy-paste. However, if your requirement is to reuse BP_DATA/AccountRelationshipsOV (or its copy you already created) in BP_HEAD, then you need to do the following:
In BP_DATA component:
1. Create a new window.
2. Add the copy to this new window in runtime repository editor.
3. Expose this new window from runtime repository editor.
In BP_HEAD component:
1. Declare a new usage for component BP_DATA, view (new window you create above)
2. Add the usage view to the concerned view area.
You also need to make sure that the context nodes are properly bound for the data flow.
Regards,
Shiromani
P.S. What was the runtime exception?

How to create a halo gradient for web 'master page'

Working with PS CS5.5.
I am needing to create a 1000px x 650px background image for a web application. I would like the resulting file size (PNG) downloaded by the web-site to be in the 50kb realm.
What is the general strategy for creating a gradient like the attached file?
Should I start with a solid background color and overlay the solid with a white gradient layer (center being less transparent) ... this in my mind would result in the smallest file size given that I could decrease the resolution (of the exported PNG file) without any visible effects on the web-page.
Please advise,
Brad

There may be many ways to do it, but you could render a round radial gradient fill layer, adjust it to taste, then save as PNG and just resize it to whatever dimensions you like in the HTML, which could get you the oval shape. Or you could rasterize it in Photoshop and save as a "squashed" version for a possible small savings in file size.
The above 500 x 325 pixel gradient saved as a PNG is about 50 kb.
This one was cropped, rasterized and squashed vertically, and takes only 26 kb on disk.

How to create a variant in VA01

Hi Gurus,
Can you teach me how to create a variant in VA01? I'd like to have a default value in the sold to party field.
Thanks,
Paul

hi,
To show a default sold-to-party in this field when the user creates a sales order (VA01) we can use a function exit .This function exit is located in enhancement no V45A0002 . Before we can choose the exit we have to create a project in CMOD after that enter V45A0002 in the enhancement field and click on the components . In the components you will see the exit EXIT_SAPMV45A_002 . This exit is used for our purpose.
Double clicking on this exit will takes us to function builder (SE37) . This function exit has one exporting parameters and two importing parameters, we are interested in exporting parameter which is E_KUNNR of type KNA1-KUNNR i.e if we move the desired customer name to this structure(E_KUNNR) it will be shown in the field as the default value when we create the sales order. This function also contains a customer include ZXVVA04 . This include will be used to write our custom code .
Double clicking on this include and it will prompt us that this include does not exists do you want to create this object ,select yes and the include will be created .In this include we can write our own code that will fill the field E_KUNNR.
e.g. E_KUNNR = 301.
Activate the include and Activate the project. Now when ever the SALES ORDER will be created , sold-to-party field will come up with a predefined customer .

MMPV - Close period - How to create a variant

Hello all,
Transaction MMPV is used to close the MM period and open a new one. Currently, we run this transaction every month MANUALLY.
We would like to create a variant that will open the new period automatically every month. The only problem is the period / year that changes every month (I do not know how to create a variant with changed values - if it is at all possible).
How can we create a variant that will run every month to close the MM period ?
Thanks for your help,
Isaac

Hello Isaac
It is possible......But to make it happen you need to go with date field and not with Period and year.
Steps -
1 - Enter field FROM Comp Code and TO Comp Code
2 - Enter the date (E.g - 05-Mar-2007)
3 - Save as varient....Give the varient names as required.
4 - Activate the 4th checkbox (Selection variable) in front of date field
5 - Click on button 'Selection variable' at the top of screen.
6 - Click on YELLOW light. This will turn it GREEN. Now you have 1st light as YELLO which was previously yello.
7 - Click on the down arrow just below the yello light.
8 - Select the appropriate option and save the varient.
The day of batch job scheduling depends upon the options you selected in the 8th step.
I hope it clarifies your dought and will allow you to create the varient as per your requirement.
Best Regards
Avinash

How to create a variant in ecatt?

Hi all,

Thanks in advance.
Vijayakumar.G

Hello Vijay,
After recording parameterize everything whatever you want.
In parameterization table leave the value field as empty, I mean don't give any value.
Select the following in the menu,
Utilities>Test configuration>Create
Now, test configuration name will have the same of the test script name.
Provide the details in the configuration tab. Then in the variants tab select the second radio button "Internal variants".
In the variant table you can see the default variant "ECATTDEFAULT". You can make use of this also. Otherwise you can also create your own variants by clicking "Insert variant" button.
The variables whatever you have created in the test script will be there in the table. Now, Create variant and provide values for each variables.
You can also select the variants which need to be executed.
Now you can run the test configuration. It will be running number of times according to the created number of the variants.
You can also create Test data for your test script and configuration.
Try this, I hope it will help.
Feel free to reward if it helps.

Hi deva,
write a class which implemets these methods
CLASS lcl_event_receiver DEFINITION.
PUBLIC SECTION.
    METHODS:
To handle the toolbar on alv
     handle_toolbar
       FOR EVENT toolbar OF cl_gui_alv_grid
          IMPORTING e_object e_interactive,
To handle the buttons on the alv grid
     handle_user_command
       FOR EVENT user_command OF cl_gui_alv_grid
       IMPORTING e_ucomm.
endclass.
Now Implement these methods.
CLASS lcl_event_receiver IMPLEMENTATION.
To handle the toolbar on alv
METHOD handle_toolbar.
   DATA ls_toolbar TYPE stb_button.
    CLEAR gs_toolbar.
    MOVE 3 TO gs_toolbar-butn_type.
    APPEND gs_toolbar TO e_object->mt_toolbar.
    CLEAR gs_toolbar.
    PERFORM icon_create USING 'ICON_INSERT_ROW' gs_toolbar-icon.
    MOVE text-010 TO gs_toolbar-function.
    MOVE text-012 TO gs_toolbar-quickinfo.
    MOVE ' ' TO gs_toolbar-disabled.
    APPEND gs_toolbar TO e_object->mt_toolbar.
    CLEAR gs_toolbar.
    PERFORM icon_create USING 'ICON_DELETE_ROW' gs_toolbar-icon.
    MOVE text-011 TO gs_toolbar-function.
    MOVE text-013 TO gs_toolbar-quickinfo.
    MOVE ' ' TO gs_toolbar-disabled.
    APPEND gs_toolbar TO e_object->mt_toolbar.
ENDMETHOD.
   METHOD handle_user_command.
In this form, check the function code(e_ucomm has the function code), based on that do the required action.
as i said yesterday(i.e for appending a row, deleting a row, modifying a row)
    PERFORM user_command USING e_ucomm.
ENDMETHOD
endclass.
Before calling the alv method, create a object of this class.
DATA :
      gref_event_receiver TYPE REF TO lcl_event_receiver,
      gv_tables_alv          TYPE REF TO cl_gui_alv_grid.
      CREATE OBJECT gref_event_receiver.
      SET HANDLER   gref_event_receiver->handle_user_command
                    FOR gv_tables_alv.
      SET HANDLER   gref_event_receiver->handle_toolbar
                    FOR gv_tables_alv.
check this program for event handling, it is the similar way

How to create process variant in process chain

What is a process variant? i try to add Infocube compression to the fi process chain. To accomplish this task, i have to create process variant. please tell me the step by step process how to create process variant and successfully add the compression to the process chain. Can i do it directly in production? Thanks to SDN community that i can count on.

Hi Rafi,
<b>Process variants</b>
The process variant is the name of the process Within the process chain context, it displays the configuration of a process of a particular type set at the time of definition. A variant is only consistently defined together with the process type. A process can have various variants. With the load process for example, the name of the InfoPackage is the name of the process variant.
The user defines the process variant at the time when the process is scheduled. With some process types, the variants are determined internally and are stored as GUIDs.
For more info:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/d5/e80d3dbd82f72ce10000000a114084/content.htm
You can create process chains directly in Production. Most of the times system allows(depends on system settings). But this is not a proper way of working. Create in Development and transport it to Production.

I created mega menu in adobe muse ( master page ) but the thing is when I preview that menu in other pages contents I already had created will overlap the menu. Is there any options that would fix that problem up. I'd like to have the menu overlap the contents. That does not happen on master page ( master page looks good ) Thank you very much.

Place the menu on its own layer above the rest of the page content.

How to create a variant to a maintenance view (trans: SM31)

Hi gurus.
I have created a maintenance view (called z_jest). By running it from SM31 there is a variant option. However, I am not able to create the variant which I want to filter a selection upon in this transaction.
I have even looked into transaction SE54 and created a variant for the maintenance table view there( called z_jestv). Then going back to transaction SM31 and view z_jest, i push 'Variant' radiobutton and type as variant: 'z_jestv', I only get the message: "Variant z_jestv for object z_jest does not exist".
Can anybody please advice on how to create and/or connect the variant to the maintenance view?
Regards LL.

Hi Mahalakshmi
Thanks for reply.
When I look into the procedure, there is a prerequisite: "The basis dialog for which the maintenance variant is created already exists."
I am a little bit unsertain if I miss this 'Basic dialog'. Can you please advice on how to check / create this 'basic dialog' before I go on to create the variant. (I need this 'basic dialog' as input in the procedure you sent.)
(Note: I have already created a 'maintenance dialog' for the view, but I have a feeling, that is something different...)
