How to include /Exclude products in customer catalog view.

We are using CRM 4.0 with internet sales applications (ISA).We have product catalog setup in webshop where customer/customer service team given access to view products based on the different product hierarchy.
This is enabled though creation of multiple customer views
Now we have a requirement that customer need to view only few product out of the product category level assignment but asper the current system if a particular product category is marked then it show all the product under the product category in hierarchy assignment
Which means assume there are 100 products assigned to a product category ID under customer view, but customer has show all the 100 products but he need to view only 50 products out of 100 products assigned
We need to find out if it is possible to include / exclude products from a customer view not based on the product hierarchy / category ID.
Is that possible? we tried Partner product range but not sure ...can anyone throw some light in it... please let me know if I'm not clear on this.
Thanks

The app builder prior to 8.x was only designed to install the application you created. The actual instrument driver VIs should be included in the app but the IVI driver itself (the low level dll) is not. You should really include the installer for the IVI driver and not just the dlls. This is the .msi file that is on the instrument driver download page. If you are getting an error about VISA32, then it sounds like VISA was not installed either. I usually install VISA and NI-GPIB from the CD that comes with the GPIB board and I do this when I install the board into the computer. However, you can also include these installers with your app as well. On the Installer Settings tab, click the Advanced button. You have the option there of 'Run executable after installation'. The simplest thing to do is to create a .bat file that will call the other installers you include with the distribution. Don't forget that you also need the IVI Compliance Package so include that installer as well.

How to create wizard for a custom mainenance view/view cluster

Hi Experts,
I have created 5 custom maintenance view and have maintained all the views sequencially and have made the first mainenance view as the start view & header entry and all other views are child or subview of the header view in a custom view cluster. But I want a wizard to help the user / end user successfully enter all the required values for all child views, it will help the user to navigate from the start view to all the child views where the fields of the wizard will be associated to the child maintenance views.
Please suggest how to create wizard for view cluster.
I'll give max reward point for the helpful answer.
Thanks in advance

Hello Pasapula
When you are in the View Cluster maintenance dialog (SE54) click on dialog "Events".
Below the field for the view cluster you have an additional field <b>FORM routines main program</b>. There you have to add the main program containing the FORM routines called by the VC events.
For example: I had defined a normal report containing an include with all the FORM routines. The report contains only the following lines of coding:
report zus_0120_u1.
* Common Data und access routines for user exits in VC maintenance
include LSVCMCOD.
include zus_0120_f1. "FORM routines for VC events
Now in the "Events" dialog of the view cluster maintenance you assign your FORM routines to the events.

Order product out of catalog view

Hi
On default in b2b webshop, if the product is valid for the org. unit but invalid for the determined catalog, you still can order this product even it is not inlcuded in the product catalog.
Therefore, we disable the parameter 'enable.nonCatalogProducts of ui
component in b2b xcm configuration, then message 'CRM_SALES 307' raises in web to avoid ordering the product out of the catalog succesfully.
However, if we exclude certain product from catalog view(but the product still exists in the catalog), the product disappears in product catalog view in web shop as we expected, but we still can order this product by directly input in order, which disobeys our request, our request is that you only can order the products in your product catalog VIEW.
Did anybody encounter this problem before?
Patrick

Hi Patrick,
please check if for the catalog views Partner Product ranges are maintained. Use SPRO and under
CRM ->Master Data ->Partner/Product Range ->Basic settings
check the following settings:
Define general settings for PPR - check if the flag to use PPR checks in the application (and for given processes) has been set. Check the checkbox "Check PPRs in Business transactions and Applications"
(ii) PPR Tape for Product Catalog View - make sure that type 0002 is selected
(iii) Define transaction types and Applications relevant for check - please check the existing SPRO documentation as I am not sure about this point, but in general it should be the transaction type used in your shop
I hope this will help you resolve the issue. Have you already asked our Support for assistance? Please let me know the message number or write my comments in the message so that my colleagues know about it.

How to include richtext in a custom xtype as multifield

Hi,
I have a requirement of adding a richtext in a custom multifield.
There is a richtext component created under '/apps/website/components/richtext/items/items/richtext'
This richtext would have 3 plugins as well.
Now my custom multifield xtype should have the below
1) Text Field
2) Pathfield
3) Richtext(with the additional plugins. Same as /apps/website/components/richtext/items/items/richtext).
I tried the below option
1)
this.text = new CQ.form.RichText({
                anchor: '100%',
                fieldLabel : "Enter Text",
                width : '400',
                "rtePlugins" :{
                    "edit" : {
                        "features" : ['cut', 'copy', 'paste-plaintext']
                    "subsuperscript" : {
                        "features" : "*"
                    "spellcheck" : {
                        "features" : "*"
                    "undo" : {
                        "features" : "*"

                    "misctools" : {
                        "features" : "*"
                listeners : {
                    change :{
                        scope : this,
                        fn : this.updateHidden
                    dialogclose: {
                        scope : this,
                        fn : this.updateHidden
                    destroy: function(){
                        this.el.dom={};
            this.add(this.text);
However in the dialog I'm able to add the xtype only once.
On click of add item I see the below error in console
TypeError: features is undefined
var featCnt = features.length;
Please let me know how I can get rid of this error.
2) Is there an option to include xtype as cqinclude
path : '/apps/website/components/richtext/items/items/richtext.infinity.json',
xtype : 'cqinclude',
Thanks

How to include a SWC using custom Console?

Currently, it appears as if it is not possible to include an external SWC for use in a custom Console implementation.
For instance, assume that I have a SWC: Foo.swc that contains the class
com.test::Foo
I also have a custom com.adobe.flascc.Console implementation which imports and uses com.test.Foo from the Foo.swc library.
I've managed to get my SWF to compile without a problem, but I get the following run-time error:
VerifyError: Error #1014: Class com.test::Foo could not be found.
Here's how I've setup the compile:
CCC:=$(FLASCC)/usr/bin/g++
Console.abc:
          $(ASC) -merge -md -abcfuture -AS3 -optimize -strict \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/builtin.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/playerglobal.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/BinaryData.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/ISpecialFile.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/IBackingStore.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/IVFS.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/InMemoryBackingStore.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/PlayerKernel.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/CModule.abc) \
                    -import $(call nativepath,$(FLASCC)/usr/lib/C_Run.abc) \
                    -li $(call nativepath,./aslibs/Foo.swc) \
                    -le $(call nativepath,./aslibs/framework.swc) \
Console.as -outdir . -out Console
test.swf: Console.abc
          $(CCC) -jvmopt=$(JVMARGS) -Wall -g -O0 -fno-exceptions -o test.swf \
                    main.cpp \
                    -lAS3++ \
                    -fllvm-llc-opt=-ascopt=-li \
                    -fllvm-llc-opt=-ascopt=$(call nativepath,./aslibs/Foo.swc) \
                    -fllvm-llc-opt=-ascopt=-le \
                    -fllvm-llc-opt=-ascopt=$(call nativepath,./aslibs/framework.swc) \
                    -symbol-abc=Console.abc \
                    -emit-swf \
                    -swf-size=800x600
I've also attempted adding -no-swf-preloader assuming that the problem was linkage in the first frame, but this did not work either.
If I only use asc2.jar to generate a SWF (using the -li and -le options), it works, but I need access to the libraries via flascc Console.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Matt Bolt

Thanks for the response and the suggested work-around! This solution worked exactly as you described and was precisely the result I was looking for.
--- Some Follow Up Ranting and Questions ---
Was the behavior I mentioned in my previous post a bug? It seems like the issue may be due to the following:
* Compiling .as to .abc referencing a swc will simply refer to the contents of the swc to resolve external references and there's nothing in the abc itself referring to the external library (Could be way off here).
* Compiling .as to .swf will resolve fully.
* Because we compile Console to abc first, we lose the ability to resolve external references before going to SWF.
If the above statements are correct, then -li and -le behave identically when compiling to .abc, and the behavior mentioned in my previous post would make sense.
What is strange to me is that the ASC provides a way to compile to .abc but no way to link .abc and output a swf. Perhaps it's because of the loss of data that occurs (full resolution tracks dependencies in memory).
I'm not sure that what I'm claiming is even remotely close to the truth, but it seems accurate based on my observations. If anyone knows for sure, please feel free to set me straight.

How to include interactive components in custom models?

Hello guys,
How can I include interactive components like switches and indicator in my custom models.
I'm experienced working with new SPICE models and footprints, now I'm planning design custom indicators and keyboard based on switches but firts I would like to make sure it's possible.
Thanks,
Roosvelt
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Roosvelt,
Unfortunately, interactive components can only be created internally, and you cannot modify existing interactive components. We have heard this request before, and I hope to see this in a future release, but we have time frame for when this might be possible.

How do you load products into the catalog?

Instead of using the automatic or manual load processes by hand for the product catalog, we would like to have a batch program written where it will automatically load products into the specific levels of the catalog. Does anyone know if there is a standard program in CRM to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Darcie

Hi Darcie,
No, as far as I know there's no load standard load program for CRM product catalog data. We're on v4.0, so I can't say what's been added in later releases.
Anyway, if you write your own, have a look at package COM_PRDCAT_WEB_API which contains lots of goodie function modules you can use to manipulate product catalog data.
Dont forget
CALL FUNCTION 'COM_PRDCAT_TRANSACTION_BEGIN'
at the start and
CALL FUNCTION 'COM_PRDCAT_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
at the end.
There's also package COM_PRDCAT, but when we tried to do stuff with FMs in this package we ran into errors since some global variables were undefined.
Hope this helps.

Activate product in Product Catalog View ( via function module )

Hello,
I have the following problem in an ABAP program that needs to update the product catalog data:
When I insert a product in a product catalog, it is automatically 'activated' for the catalog views were the flag 'New Objects' is checked.
This works fine.
However, sometimes I need to 'activate' the product in other catalog views as well.
This does not seem to work.
Currently I'm using the functions:
COM_PCAT_VIEW_OBJTAB_INSERT
COM_PCAT_VIEW_CHANGE_O
Is there another function I should use ?
Does anyone have experience in this matter ?
What I also noticed, there seems to be an issue when the 'parent' of the product (for example the area ) is not 'activated' in the catalog view.
Is there a function I can use to check wich 'catalog area's are 'activated' for a given catalog view ?
All help is welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Erwin

Shwetha,
You can use the FM 'COM_PROD_MATERIAL_MAINTAIN_API' to update the Product Description. A brief program pseudo-logic is mentioned below
    gs_text-data-langu      = 'EN'.                                        "'EN'.
    gs_text-data-short_text = <Pass the Description'.
    gs_text-data-valid_from = sy-datum.
    gs_text-data-valid_to   = <To Date>.
    gs_text-data-logsys     = <Logical System>.
    APPEND gs_text TO gs_product_api-short_texts.
    APPEND gs_product_api TO gt_product_api.
    CLEAR : gs_product_api,
                   gs_text.
      CALL FUNCTION 'COM_PRODUCT_FREE_API'.
      CALL FUNCTION 'COM_PROD_MATERIAL_MAINTAIN_API'
        EXPORTING
          it_product           = gt_product_api
          iv_suppress_inactive = 'X'
          it_set               = gt_set_typ
          iv_commit_work       = 'X'
          iv_enqueue_mode      = 'E'
        IMPORTING
          et_bapireturn        = gt_bapireturn.

How can I EXCLUDE particular folders/files from being included in the Lightroom 5 catalog?

How can I EXCLUDE particular folders/files from being included in the Lightroom 5 catalog?
I want to be able to specify paths and/or filename patterns that should NEVER be indexed in the catalog: not that they don't show up under certain circumstances, just that they are NOT THERE (in the catalog) to begin with!!
I also do NOT want to have to respecify these criteria when "synching" the catalog; criteria should be PERMANENT (or at least 'til they're changed in LR preferences).
I cannot be the only person in the world with this problem--but it sure seems like it, because I've spent an inordinate amount of time doing online searches & I can't find anything that addresses this issue.
Can anyone PLEASE HELP me?
BTW, Adobe employees (if there are any of you out there), I'm simply trying out LR now. If I can't get this (seemingly fundamental) thing worked out (with relatively little effort), Adobe is going to LOSE A SALE of LR, because it's useless to me without this feature.
Thanks,
-t

Thanks for the info... but how to you TELL LR to EXCLUDE images in a particular directory/directory structure? The intuitive place to indicate this would be a right-click on the folder itself (or particular images), but no such option exists.. "???" Thanks again, -pt
The same way that you avoid buying things in your local convenience store. You don't stick a lot of labels on certain shelves, slap a credit card down on the counter each week, and announce you are buying everything that doesn't have a label on its shelf. You just choose the things you want to buy.
Your mention of "synching the catalog" suggests that you are expecting the LR library, to mirror the total images in the computer by default. This is not IMO a useful way to think about it. LR contains no images at all, by default: the Catalog starts out empty.
Then you Add just those selected images that you want to import, among those already in the computer. That's a one-off process which is IMO best achieved controllably in batches - which you can keyword and otherwise organise in LR terms as you go. For new incoming images, ongoing, it is a question of Copying, Moving or Adding these in defined batches as they occur - from the relevant location only - there is no need to re-consider the import of a wider body of images. And one would not want to repeat that whole task anyway: one's prior investment in achieving the right selectivity, has a positive value.

How to create a product catalog in crm(by the end user of the system)?

how can we an end user create a product catalog?
what is the diff b/n prod cat and prod?
we download the prod from r/3.
how we get the prod cat done in crm for the customers and consumers and how it is done?
thank you,

hi
first of all we need to look at what is catalog management before proceding with product and product catalog.
You use this business scenario to create a centralized product catalog that contains product descriptions, multimedia objects, pricing, and associated literature. The catalog enables quick and easy customer access to timely and personalized product information, structured in such a way that most meets your customers needs.
Product catalogs are implemented in sales processes and are of particular importance in CRM Web Channel for presenting your products in the Web shop.
difference between the product and product catalog
this is not the thing that product and product catalog are completely different entity.
Product catalog :   A grouping together of products from your product master data, in a structured hierarchy.
You use product catalogs to group together products to present them in the Web shop, Interaction Center, or in other forms of media, for example printed format or CD-ROM.
You can create various catalogs for your products in the product master and use them according to a validity date. For example, you could use certain products for the summer season, and other products for the winter season.
You can also tailor your product catalog to meet other needs by creating catalog variants. For example, you can create a catalog in English with the prices displayed in US Dollars.
so by above definition it is very much clear that products are actually assign to the catalog,i will give you an analogy that museum is a kind of catalog and you add different pictures to the museum,in the same way you add product to the product catalog according to the acatlog variant.
Now how you assign product to product catalog
Product Assignment
You assign products manually or automatically to a catalog area, depending on the catalog type. The product ID, product description, and status of all products is displayed, as is the information as to whether the item contains accessories or if it is a configurable product.
Prerequisites
You have created products in your product master in SAP CRM under Accounts and Products
Process
You select a catalog area in your product catalog, and edit the item list by assigning products to the area.
Manual Assignment
You can assign products manually on an individual basis or by copying a catalog area. You tend to choose manual product assignment for marketing-oriented catalogs that are subjected to editorial controls.
      Individual assignment
      In this case you select the catalog area in which the product should be assigned, manually search for the product in the product master, and assign it to the area.
      Copying items from catalog areas
      You select an area or subarea from another catalog and copy it to your new catalog. The system copies all products from the copied area to the new catalog, as long as they belong to the distribution chain assigned to the target catalog variant. From these products, you can then manually determine which products from the copied area you want to keep and which items you wish to delete.
The following is true for manually assigned products:
      You can activate or deactivate items on an individual basis.
      You can edit the list of accessories for manually assigned products. The system determines which accessories are maintained for the product in the product master and displays them in the item area of the catalog. You select which accessories should be displayed for the product in the catalog and activate them.
      Manually assigned products can be included or removed from catalog views on an individual basis.
Automatic Assignment
You can assign products automatically to a catalog by transferring product hierarchies from your product master to the catalog areas. The categories, items, attributes, and documents contained in the product hierarchy are copied to the new catalog.
You use automatic product assignment mainly for functional catalogs, where products can be copied with very few changes, from the product categories of the product master. It enables a standardized characterization of your products in the catalog.
The following is true for products assigned to the catalog using product hierarchy transfer:
      Product categories which make up the hierarchies become catalog areas in the catalog.
      Product categories in the product hierarchy must be assigned to the distribution chain to which the target catalog variant is assigned. Otherwise the category is not transferred. The same applies to the items, texts, and documents assigned to the category.
      Items are always active and cannot be individually activated or deactivated.
      Accessories maintained for transferred product in the product master are automatically included and displayed in the catalog.
      Transferred items cannot be individually included in catalog views or removed from them. Instead all items of the hierarchy are always contained in the view.
      Lists of characteristics for transferred categories and items can be automatically created when transferring product hierarchies. The transferred values are included in the item overview of the product catalog.

How to include custom application.xml in JDev9i project

Can anybody explain to me how to include a custom application.xml file when deploying to an .ear file? I need to include application wide security roles, and I can't see where in Jev9i how to do this.
After searching this forum, I see that jdev9i can't include the orion-application.xml, but I want to include just the standard J2EE application.xml. Is this possible?
Thanks,
matt

The standard application.xml file unfortunately can't be customized in JDev 9.0.2. The reasons why this capability was left out of JDev 9.0.2 are same reasons why the other EAR-level XML files were excluded. The OTN thread
Re: Regarding 11i and E-business suite
has a summary of those reasons, which you've probably seen. We know this is an area in need of improvement and will be adding this functionality in the JDev 9.0.3 release. Until then, you'll have to go with a work-around like an Ant build file, batch file, Java application, or some other kind of script.
Below is a sample Java application which can be used to insert <security-role> elements into an EAR file's application.xml. Modify the main() method to customize for your purposes, and put xmlparserv2.jar on the classpath (in a JDev project, add the "Oracle XML Parser v2" library):

How to Create, Save and Restore a Custom Catalog in PE 6?

I am having great difficulty in trying to create a custom catalog using the organizer function of PE 6. Upon opening the organizer I have many photos already depicted in it. So, I highlight them all and delete them obtaining a blank screen with no photos. I then import the file containing only the custom photos I want to catalog. I then backup this catalog using the following procedure http://www.backuphowto.info/how-to-backup-adobe-photoshop-elements-6-catalogue Everything looks fine until I try to restore it at a future time. It doesn't restore! In fact I can browse to the saved file but am unable to get the locate backup file location to change to it??
What am I doing wrong and can anyone help me acheive my objective of creating a custom catalog that I can save and retrieve intact for later use?
Thanks, in advance, for any help provided. Oh, and I need to add I am relatively new to PE 6 having only previously used PE 4 and never used the organizer in it which is to say - lead me very simply please.

I can't imagine the purpose of a "custom catalog". Seems to me you have done a lot of work when I am 100% sure there is an easier way to do whatever it is you are trying to accomplish. Further, it seems like you are trying to create a backup of only some of your photos, and I can't imagine the purpose of that either ... I would presume you would want to make backups of your entire collection of photos.
Just as a general rule, there usually isn't a good reason to have more than one catalog (unless you have separate categories of photos, like personal and work).
Everything looks fine until I try to restore it at a future time. It doesn't restore!
Can you give us a detail or two about what happens when "it doesn't restore"? Can you give us more details about what you actually did? And most importantly, can you describe what you see on the screeN? Screen captures would be even better.

How to include and exclude external infoobject values in a hierarchy

Hello experts,
I'm working with hierarchies and the problem I have is that I don´t know how to include nor exclude a value in the definition of the hierarchy.
For example, I want to show in a query some cost elements related to some functional areas, so I've created a hierarchy for md funcional area. But I don't want to show every cost element related to one functional area but only some of them. I've defined 0costelmnt as a external characteristic for 0func_area infoobject so that I can specify in the hierarchy the cost elements I want to show. But it doesn´t work, in the report all cost elements are showed. How can I specify the ones I want to show?
thank you very much.

Any ideas please?
