> How to find the original lengh of a VARCHAR2 field.
Why?
And where? A varchar2 in SQL or a varchar2 in PL/SQL? Varchar2 arguments have no explicit size in parameter signature for a procedure or a function.

  • How can we find the original XML Name of a Field

    Hi All,
    Just like the Reports To Field has XML Name as *[<ManagerFullName>]*
    Can anyone tell me how I can find the Original XML Name for the "Reports To (Alias)" User field?.
    Thanks in advance,
    Royston

    My scenario is that,
    When a user saves a new campaign I want to change the owner of this campaign to the user he reports to i.e(Manager Alias) Since the Owner field takes the Alias Name.
    To achieve this I have created a workflow to assign that Campaign to the Manager.
    Here is the Code snippet
    The triggering event is : Before modified record is saved.
    action is Update Field Owner with UserValue('<ManagerAlias>')
    Unfortunately its not accepting the ManagerAlias field....I have tried a similar scenario with the <ManagerFullName> field and its working fine.
    Thanks,
    -Royston

  • How to find the Datasource,ODS,InfoCube by a field of a R3 table

    Hey Folks!
    I'm trying to find the Datasource,ODS,InfoCube by a field of a R3 table.
    It means I want to get the Datasource,ODS,InfoCube which contain the field I wanted.
    I did the following steps, Please correct me if I'm wrong.
    1. I use table RSOSFIELDMAP to get the related Datasource and infoobject by field I wanted.
    2. Then I use the infoobject of filed which I get from step1 to get the related ODS in the table RSDODSOIOBJ.
    3. I also use the infoobject filed which I get from step1 to get the related InfoCube in the table RSDCUBEIOBJ.
    But I have concern about the way I search the ODS and InfoCube.
    Could somebody help me on it?
    Thanks.

    Hi Ihdai,
    1) In step1  what you are doing is good...that table gives the mapping of the source fields in DataSources.
    2) One if you know the InfoObject Name....Open the InfoObject definition...
        and click on the  "Multiple Arrow" button which gives "Where used list"...
        That is a better way to get the list..
    3) You can use the tables also.

  • How to find the original RAW file # from a Lightroom exported JPG?

    Hello, this is in regards to a Lightroom 3.5 exported JPG. This was a year ago when I had been told it was best to export files with simple renumbering of them from 1 to x... instead of retaining the original RAW 4-digit file name.
    I've currently lost the original files, and need to do a search for them via these 4 digits to see if I have them tucked away in any of my drives. I downloaded a metadata explorer, and it's telling me all the lightroom editing information, and everything else, but somehow does not have the simplest of information — that 4 digit original file name.
    Am I grasping at straws or is there likely to be any way to find this information out? I don't work with metadata, so there wouldn't have been any customizations to how Lightroom configures this....hoping that's in my favor. Any help is much appreciated!!!!

    A note about security (context: downloaded apps & plugins...).
    Anatomy of a URL:
    protocol://stuff.stuff.stuff.domain.domain-suffix/stuff/stuff?stuff=stuff
    None of this stuff matters much except:
    domain.domain-suffix (and protocol, to some extent).
    So if you download something from:
    http://ignafradifcawhatyousay.toolonganyway.my.server.com/gogafnoics...
    It's coming from server.com using http (web) protocol.
    But, if you download it from:
    http://my.server.com.badguy.tv/...
    It's coming from badguy.tv, NOT server.com, so if you want it from server.com - danger will robins...
    And, if you download from
    http://216.195.245.134/my.server.com
    It's coming from an unregistered internet address (216.195.245.134) - again: danger...
    (4 groups of up-to-3 digits separated by dots is the format for a literal internet (IP) address, instead of domain-name...)
    Summary: if you learn the anatomy of a URL, and pay attention to the URL's you are clicking on, or entering directly, you can take more responsibility for security, and assure (to a greater extent) you don't download from an unfriendly source.

  • How to find the original CO document after the settlement process

    Does is posible to know the original CO document (from MM, FI or RH...) after the settlement process?
    We need to find a table or just a report in order to mapple the original CO document with his new CO document after the settlement.
    Kind regards.

    If you are talking about project settlement then you can look in report CJI3, the transaction type for settlement transaction is KOAO. You may run a filter and double click the relevant line item to drill down and see the original settlement document.

  • I have bought a 'brand new' iphone 4 from e-bay. The seller said it was on o2, but it will not take an o2 sim? Tried all of the major networks and it will not take any of them. Seller is very unhelpful and I don't know how to find the original carrier. C

    Hi
    I have bought an Iphone 4 from ebay. It was listed as brand new and on o2. The phone has never been activated but it won't take an o2 sim, in fact I've tried the majority of the UK networks and it just keeps saying sim not supported please insert the original sim. The seller is very unhelpful and I'm a bit lost now. Can anyone help? I'm an iphone novice, am I doing something wrong?

    The only option here is to contract 02 and ask them why the phone won't work.  If the phone is supposedly locked to 02, then they are the only ones who can help you.  Try contacting them to see.
    If they can't help you, then I'm afraid that you have been had on ebay and it is never a good idea to purchase iPhones and anything of an expensive nature there - you can never trust what people say.
    You need to contact the seller and either ask for the original sim card for the phone and if the phone is actually locked to 02 or you just tell them that you are returning the phone for a full refund.
    If the seller is not being helpful, then you can file a dispute with ebay and ebay will then sort it out for you and you should be able to return the phone for a full refund.
    Bottom line:  Don't buy an iPhone from ebay and if you want an iPhone on 02, go to an 02 store and buy one - they have plenty in stock - my local branch has iPhone 5's in stock and they still have the iPhone 4's if you want one.

    those structures are being used by the back end module pool
    programm
    so every time we can get the exact information about the

    but not sure that every time we get the exact database table name
    and field name
    according to me, if i dont know where some field are getting stored in

  • How to find the tables corresponding to a particular field in datasource.

    Hi Experts,
    There are lot of extra fields in the structure like MCEKKN as compared with the table EKKN. The data in these fields are coming from some other table.
    So can u tell me how to find these tables corresponding to these fields?
    Let me be more clear..
    I want to know that the data in the datasource like 2LIS_02_ACC are coming from lot of tables.
    How can I find those tables corresponding to each field in the extraction structure.
    I have tried with ST05...as well as by filling setup tables in debbugging mode..but I am still in lot of confusion.
    Please try to help me....U will get good points in response.
    Thanx.
    Vinod.

    Hi Vinod,
    Why are you trying to enhance the extractor because the steps you are following is tio enhance the structure
    <i><b>like transferd one of the field from pool to selection criteria</b></i>
    If you want to see only the fields of the extractor and from which table it is coming you just have to see the pool only.
    There in the lef you have the fields which are already present  in the extractor and in the right you have the avaialbale fields present.
    Also in the two selection pools if you will see carefully you will find in each selection pool
    "Table name" and then the "field name" and then description of the field data type and length.
    Like in case of 2lIS_13_VDITM you will find all the fields coming from VBRK and VBRP and VBUK.
    Just check it you will get an idea.
    In this way you can find that which field in the extractor is coming from which of fields of the table.
    I think this is what you want to know.
    If not clear then do reply
    Thanks

  • How to find the original net value for a cancelled sales order

    Hi experts,
    From VA03 or table VBAP, net value for those cancelled items is always zero. Where to find those cancelled items' original net value?
    Thanks a lot.
    Yu

    Thanks Seshu,
    I just tried it as per your suggestion but I found for non-cancelled items konv-kbert is not equal to the net value taken from vbap-netwr.  So I wonder if knov-kbert is the right original net value for those cancelled items.

  • How to find the origin costs(primary CE) for Assessment cost elements

    Hi All,
    How can we trace the Orgin costs(cost senders) for Assessment cost element.
    I have to create Co report where user wants the Costs senders(primary cost elements) details for Assessment cost element.
    Our cycles are defined as senders -  cost center and receiver's are Internal orders.
    so for assessement cost elements what are the primary cost senders.
    Is it possible to trace the primary cost elements details for Assessment cost elements.
    Regards,
    Raj

    Hi Chirstian,
    Thanks for the information.
    I have done the same as per your advise.
    I am trying to pull all the primary cost elements which are posted with my sender cost center's.
    All the cycles are defined as share in % = 100%.
    But unfortunately all the debits are of primary cost elements is not equal to credit amount of my Assessment cost element.
    The figures are very far and couldn't trace the difference amount. Is there any other report in SAP or how i can define in report painter to meet this requirement.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Raj.

    the reason I was trying to find thiis is that I'm displaying this value on a web page and I need to figure out the longest
    continuous word because the css will not wrap a the text in the middle of a word. so it ends up pushing my entire div below where I would like it to go.

  • How to locate the origin of connection?

    Hello, all
    One of our clients recently started receiving errors of type "all threads are blocked"
    When I go into Sybase Central to look at the connected users, I see dozens of strange connections. There is no user, no station IP, just the connection name "INT: Exchange".
    Can anyone suggest how I find the origin of this connection?
    Thank you,

    Hi.
    First of all what version of SQL Anywhere are you using? Have you tried to see properties for one of those "strange" connections? If you right click on anyone and choose properties do you se a window with two tabs?
    Also are you using mobilink, proxy tables - remote servers or anything like that?
