How to delete an attribute?

Hi Experts,
We are on SRM 5.0
How to delete an attribute from Attributes tab of Organization/ Position or User?
For eg: The attribute Catalog ID i.e. CAT is there at Organization level, Position and also User levels.
Suppose there are 3 Lines for CAT in Attributes tab. I want to delete one..how to do this?
I tried using the FM BBP_UPDATE_ATTRIBUTES By passing only one record in IT_ATTR_P and setting REPLACE_P flag but it does not changes anything.
Thanks for the help,
Anubhav

Hi
i believe CAT value is a case sensitive field .
Why are you using FM to update the ATTRIBUTE values?
Corporate - Dont want to keep this value for as CAT . if you dont want this catalog value.you need to find out where in the root and make it disable or Delete it.
some sample code
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SRM/CodeSample3UpdatingExtendedAttributes(Storage+Location)
what is your business requirement ? Dont want Corporate catalogs any more for all the users?

How to delete an attribute of a XMLNode ?

Hello!
Any method to delete an attribute of a XMLNode ?
Thank you!

You are deleting the object. Try this in your movie - make a
button, give it
an instance name 'btnDelete', and using your existing Class:
var c:DeleteThisClass = new DeleteThisClass();
btnDelete.onPress = function() {
trace("c = "+c);
var bDelete:Boolean = delete c;
trace("bDelete = "+bDelete);
trace("now c = "+c);
You'll see this traced:
c = [object Object]
bDelete = true
now c = undefined
However, in your Class, you are assigning an enterFrame
handler to the _root
of your movie. Deleting the Class object won;t delete this
handler, as it is
independent of the Class object. Make sense?

Delete Context Attribute dynamicalluy

Hi,
We have a requirement where context attributes have to be created and deleted dynamically based on number of parameters. Dynamic creation part is ok but i don't know how to delete context attributes dynamically. I'm using NWDS04 sp16.
Any help is appreciated.
Regards,
Abhinav

from https://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/wd/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/progmodel/api/IWDNodeInfo.html
<i>
Node infos also provide a mean to dynamically add child nodes (there are different methods for unmapped, mapped and recursive nodes) or attributes (unmapped or mapped, several methods to add attributes automatically from external meta data). You cannot remove such nodes or attributes afterwards, you can only reset the whole context to its initial state via IWDContext.reset(boolean).

Reg:How to delete the column in table control also from database table.

Hi Experts,
Once again thank u all for giving the responses.
one more doubt is how to delete the columns of table control and also the record shold delete from ztable.
With Regards,
Saroja.P.

Hi,
If you want to delete the rows in the table control and simultaneously delete it from the database table, then you can implement a 'DELETE' functionality specific to your table control. Have a MARK field (you will find that in the screen attributes of the table control -> give a name for the MARK field, you will find an additional MARK column at the beginning of your table control). You can check whatever rows you want to delete from the table control, call the delete module.
"This portion of code inside the LOOP...ENDLOOP.
IF sy-ucomm eq 'F_DELETE'.
gt_itab2-check = mark. " Store the MARK field status into your internal table's correspoding field 'check'
MODIFY gt_itab INDEX tabcontrol-current_line.
ENDIF.
iF sy-ucomm eq 'DELETE1'.
DELETE gt_itab WHERE check eq 'X'. "Your internal table does not have rows that you want to delete
ENDIF.
Now you can modify your database table using the MODIFY statement.
MODIFY ZDB FROM TABLE gt_itab.

How to delete the duplicate email address in BP master data

Hi,

In CRM you can create the same BP with different id. I would like to know how to delete the email address during importing email addresses from the third party tool.
During the campaign you are sending email to all your customers, when the customer want to unsubscibe the email address from your list, how to unsubcribe the email address and how to updat the BP master data.
If you are sending the email to customer, you are using html or simple text, if the customer wants only html or simple text, how you to specify in the system?
thanks,
arul

Hello Arul,
welcome to the SDN CRM Development forum.
1. I think you should clear the data with duplicate E-Mail adresses in the external tool.
2. Unsubscription could be done by a Marketing Attribute which could be set by using a Target Group which is created by Campaign Automation. Have a look at this Toppic. There is also a Best Practice avaliable at http://help.sap.com/bp_crmv340/CRM_DE/index.htm.
3. Also HTML or Simple text can be mained in a Marketing Attribute. You have to use different Mail Forms to which are sent to different Target groups.

Hi ,
The onclick event provides you with a standard paramater "CONTEXT_ELEMENT" which has the element from which the event is triggered.
so you can declare this in the handler(if it is not there) and use it as follows.
CONTEXT_ELEMENT TYPE REF TO IF_WD_CONTEXT_ELEMENT an importing paramater.
DATA:
NODE_MODULE TYPE REF TO IF_WD_CONTEXT_NODE,
ELEM_MODULE TYPE REF TO IF_WD_CONTEXT_ELEMENT,

CONTEXT_ELEMENT->GET_STATIC_ATTRIBUTES(
IMPORTING

DELETE itab WHERE zmodule_id = STRU_MODULE-zmodule_id. "deleting the particular row from the table and binding it.

Hi Manish,
From my experience, you cannot change an existing attribute of a set type (esp. when it has a dependency).
You need to delete the attribute, save the changes and then re-create the attribute with new value table.
Also remove any dependencies before deleting the attribute.

How to create a attribute to context node with the structure that is in DDIC

Hi,
I have created a 3 value attributes while creating a view.
now i have changed the name of the one of the field in my own database table.
now the problem is, when i open the webui and try to insert a row. i am getting error like "there is no field with that name(previous name) in collection".
that is not showing the new name that i have changed. so i deleted the attribute from my view and tried to add the attribute again. and while adding a single attribute it is not taking the ddic structure. and one more problem is, when i open the ui it is showing an error like " the attribute BaseEntityName is not defined or is still initial "
someone help me how to add the one more attribute from the same structure & how to provide BaseEntityName.
Regards,
Harry

Hi Harry,
If my understanding is correct you have added a attribute with name "ZX" and now you have changed the name of the field to "ZZX" and when you try to add the attribute it gives an error.
In this case, if you are trying to add a attribute with the same name as you have used before. it will not allow so better to use a new name.
If the attribute is there and if you are not able to get or set the value of it, Please change the attribute name in the getter and setter methods in the set and get property method call, because by default SAP generates a hard coded text for your attribute name in the methods and if you change the name of the field this will not change.
Thanks,

Maybe the problem#1 can be solved with a simple pl/sql using REPLACE statement. start with the <RESPONSE and look for the end > and get the entire string and replace that with only <RESPONSE> or maybe you can achieve this using xmldom to delete the attributes as part of the element.
PRoblem#2 can be solved in this way.
select xmlelement("MY_RESPONSE",
xmltype('<RESPONSE xmlns="http://testserver" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://testserver response.xsd">
<DATA REQUEST_ID="111">

Deleting inherited attribute using FM 'BBP_UPDATE_ATTRIBUTES'

Hi Forum,
I am trying to delete one value for attribute CAT using FM BBP_UPDATE_ATTRIBUTE , this attribute value is Inherited but I am unable to delete it.
I tried this:
1. Set the inherited flag to space using the same FM (in PPOSA_BBP I can see that inherited checkbox is not checked now)
2. Try deleting the attribute using same FM (now the inherited flag is SET in PPOSA_BBP instead of deleting the attribute value)
Is it not possible to delete inherited attribute or set inherited to space in PPOSA_BBP using BBP_UPDATE_ATTRIBUTES FM ?
Another query is in this FM only USER_ID_P and ORGUNIT_ID_P are import parameters, how can we update attributes of a POSITION using the FM?
Thanks,
Anubhav

Hello Anubhav,
Inheritance between objects cannot be managed by any function module.
Even if it can be done with a function module i don't know, it will be overwritten by your current customizing ( OOATTRCUST transaction) for attribute CAT.
Regarding attributes update for positions, did you try with import parameter IS_OBJECT (OTYPE = 'S' and OBJID = position ID) ?
Regards.
Laurent.
