Input Field Date Problem in EP7.0

Hi,
We have migrated the Enterprise Portal Application EP5SP6 to NW2004s SP6.Everything works fine except one issue in a Manager Reports, Where we are using Date type InputField.
Code used:
           <hbj:inputField
       id="otherdate1"
       type="DATE"
       showHelp="TRUE"
       size="10"
       maxlength="10"
       jsObjectNeeded="true"
       disabled="TRUE"
>
<%
JSP-scriptlet-START----
otherPeriodFrom=myContext.getParamIdForComponent(otherdate1);
JSP-scriptlet-END----
%>
</hbj:inputField>
<b>Javascript Error : Line : 3958 code: 2 Error: 'Undefined' is null or not an object</b>
Above Error appears when the below option in IE is selected.And also, Error appears only when the user enters the date.
Error doesn't seem to appear when user selects the date from DataPicker component irrespective whether the below option in IE is selected or not.
<b>IE Setting option :
Display a Notification about Every Script Error</b>
I'm not able to find what could be the problem in EP 7.0 as it works perfectly in EP5.0.
Any ideas would be appreciated !!
Thanks,
Jojo

Hello,
Interesting to see the migration from EP5 to EP7 went well (except one issue).
Would it be possible to share thoughts on how you did the migration? Migration tools used? Lessons learned? ...
Thanks in advance
Best regards

Get input field data

Hi Experts,
Can anyone suggest me the steps to get the data entered by the user in input field?
Regards,
Murali Krishnan N

You need to create a context value Attribute.
If you want the input value to be accessible in many views, then follow the steps to create a value attribute in Component Controller.
1. Go to your Component Controller and Properties-->Context.
2. Right click on root(Context) ->New->Attribute (say EmployeeID).
3. Now in the graphical section, which shows your controller and view, search for Data Link (on right hand side I believe) and drag from your View to component controller.
4. In the next popUp, select the EmployeeID attribute from Component side (right hand side) and drop
it on the context node of view(lhs).
5. Click Finish. And you are done.
This is called Context mapping. You can access the value of EmployeeID in any view controller using the following Code--
String sEmployeeID = wdContext.currentContextElement().getEmployeeID();

How to validate the input field data in VC using RFC FM

HI,
Could any body please give me the solution for the following issue?
When ever I enter a value in the input field of an iView, this value has to be validated from the backend BW system. Is this validation is possible using RFC function module?
If yes, please explain me.

Hi Deepak,
U can validate input fields using javascript.Write OnClientClick function for that submit button if ur using htmlb or onClick if u r using html.Refer the follows
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/03/900e41a346ef6fe10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
There are two ways to achieve ur task.
1.By checking for all alphabets.in this u need check all the alphabetic characters one by one.Refer the following
http://www.shiningstar.net/articles/articles/javascript/javascriptvalidations.asp?ID=ROLLA
http://www.shiningstar.net/articles/articles/javascript/checkNumeric.asp?ID=AW
2.By using regular expressions.its very easy and a single line code.here u need to specify single expression for whole alphabets.Refer this

Compound date (dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm) from two input fields

Hi,
I need to compound a date field in format dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm from two input fields(date and time field). I was trying a lot but could not get it to work. So right now I'm trying to start it simple but still have a couple of problems.
1.) To start easy I wanted to fill a hardcoded date into my field.
setAttribute(MYDATE, "01.01.2005 12:10");
brings (java.lang.IllegalArgumentException) Timestamp format must be yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.fffffffff
2.) setAttributeInternal(MYDATE, "01.01.2005 12:10");
brings JBO-27018: AttrSetValException Cause: The type of attribute value provided as an argument to the set() method for this attribute is not an instance of the Java type that this attribute expects.
3.) The thing that I reall need is something like:
DateFormat sim = new SimpleDateFormat("dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm");
java.util.Date datum = new java.util.Date();
try
datum = sim.parse("01.01.2005 12:30");
} catch (ParseException e)
setAttributeInternal(MYDATE, datum);
but right now this also ends with the JBO-27018
I also did try different types (timestamp and date) in my entity object and different format masks. Not working at all. All the threads I found are pointing to articles from Steve, which are not available anymore (the links don't work). So any help is appreciated.
Regards, Peter

Thankyou for the hint. I get it to work with
public void whatever
DateFormat simple = new SimpleDateFormat("dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm");
java.util.Date javaDate = new java.util.Date();
try
javaDate = simple.parse("01.01.2005 12:30");
} catch (ParseException e)
java.sql.Timestamp sqlDate = new java.sql.Timestamp(javaDate.getTime());
oracle.jbo.domain.Date nowDate = new oracle.jbo.domain.Date(sqlDate);
setAttributeInternal(MYDATE, nowDate);
but is there an easier and more 'beautiful' way to do this? Like using a date formatter on oracle.jbo.domain.Date instead using the SimpleDateFormat? btw. did I mention that I'm a Forms and PL/SQL programmer ;-)

Input Fields of Selection Screen

HI
GIven the program name and the Screen #, i need to figure out all the Input fields , Data type and Length for that program( SAP STD REPORT).
I checked out the Element List in Se51 for the program name and screen number, I need something similar to it ..I need to pull out that data. How should i approach.
-Ravi.

Output checkbox, means that it is a "disabled" input field. Output Only checkbox, means that it is more like a static text box.
F1 Help on Output Only.
<i>Pure output field
This specification makes sense only for template fields.
At runtime, the format of a template field can be distinguished from that of a field/text field, if it is defined as an output field, but not if it is defined as an input field.
If the flag is set for an output template, you cannot distinguish the format of a template field from that of a text field. This allows you to insert variable components in apparently fixed texts.
At runtime, you cannot dynamically modify the input/output attributes of output templates which have this flag set within the LOOP AT SCREEN ... ENDLOOP block in PBO modules.</i>

Want the data store values to be displayed in input field of form

Hi,
I wanted to know wether is there possibility of displaying the data in a input field instead of expression field.
In our model i have used a form which has material type,plant and Vendor connected to data service1 in turn gives the out put in chart and i also have the second input form which has To(0CALMONTH) combo box which is connected to Data service2 and gives the data in table.
But what i wanted is to i also want to use the input fields of first form to second Data service2 and get the data based on on inputs of form1 and form2i.e also To field.
We can connect the port from form1 to DS2 but problem is we need to click the submit of form1 and form2 and it doesnt gives the output according the input of form1 and form2 as it gives the output of that form when we click that submit button.
I have followed help.sap for data tore procdure.
So i have used a datstore where i will store the values of form1 and call it in expression field which i will add and hide it in form2(hide because user should not see that input fields).
Formula used in data store for expression field.
IF(CONTAINS(STORE@matltype,@Material_Type),STORE@matltype,STORE@matltype &(IF(LEN(STORE@matltype)>0,'; ',''))&@Material_Type)
But whats happening is the value is getting concatenated when i goon change the values in input field, so i wanted to get the values to be replaced as soon as i change input field of form1(if use replace function its not working) and also it would be more preferrable if we use input field instead of expression field.
I would also like to know is there any alternate solution for the above requirement instead of datastore.
Thank You
K.Srinivas

Hi,
I have Form1 connected to Data service1 displays the data in a Chart and i have another Form2 connected to Dataservice2 displays the data in table.
In form1 there are Material Type,plant, and Vendor and form2 i have To (0CALMONTH)SO now i want also Form1 inputs for Table which gets teh data from Dataservice2.
What i have said earlier is connecting Form1 to Dataservice doesnt fetch the data correectly,its because if i click submit in form1 i get the data of those 3 inputs and i need to click the submit button in form2 after giving input which shows the data accordingly where it doesnt fulfill the requirement.
So i wanted some solution for that.For that reason i have used the data store and the procedure i have followed the help.sap as i said in my above mesage.
If Data store is also suggestable than i want to display the data in Text input Field instead of Expression field which should replace the previous values as soon as values change in data store.
Hope i have tried to be clear if still it is not i am ready to explain again.
Thank You

Clearing the data buffer from the input fields

Hi,
I am using an user exit CONFPP02 for the Tcode: co11n. I have written a program such that the confirmation numbers having the status CNF will not be allowed to be processed. The whole confirmation is terminated when the system checks the confirmation number and its status as CNF. If the status of the confirmation number is PCNF, the program allows the further processing of the Tcode Co11n.
The problem starts when the user enters the PCNF status confirmation number and enters, the system stores the values in the various input fields. Now without exiting the initial confirmation screen, if the user replaces the Confirmation number of the PCNF status to the Confirmation number of the CNF status , the system issues a warning message:" Confirmation no. or order/sequence/operation has been changed
However, the input fields still contain default values from thepreceding confirmation". if the user says yes, the program written is bypassed , thus allowing the reconfirmation of the CNF confirmation number into PCNF confirmation number .
Can anybody suggest a suitable method to clear the data stored defultly in the input fields so that the program can be made to work.
With regards,

Hi Gilad,
I never use Preview and did not use Preview at all before sending the document over to my most recent client either.
I only opened Preview up this morning after I discovered that all of the form data had disappeared on his end! And the only reason I opened up Preview was because I already knew it looked fine in Acrobat so wanted so wanted to view the form in a different application.
My client would not even have notified me about it had he not sent the signed form back to me and I saw there was no data there! I then called him and asked him about the missing data and he said that he thought I had simply sent over the form purposely with blank fields:(
I have just emailed him to ask him what application he opened it up in. My understanding is that he is on Windows because ne mentioned to me his company was using Windows when we last spoke. Perhaps he has a personal Macbook where he opened it? I just don't know and can hopefully soon find out:)
But THANK YOU for letting me know about that script! I appreciate it:) I have now downloaded and installed it and will just have to use it on ALL of my forms before sending them out:)

Setting input fields to an empty string BIG PROBLEM

Hi Rob, thanks for your rerply, It makes sense alright, but I am using 2 seperate input fields. I have discovered what is causing the problem .
After the user types into the inputfield and moves on to a different frame, I have set the input field to an empty string and this is what is causing the problem.
I have tried setting the input field to an empty string in a movie script and on individual sprites and the first right answer is not excepted.I have to type in the right answer twice to get get a right response. I am actually using three seperate input fields in total, each with a different name and behavior. Even If I use one input field I still have the same problem. Its driving me crazey. Any Ideas.
Anne

I believe that the FIM Service always does trims on string, so you may be out of luck.
What is your scenario / what are you trying to accomplish by setting a space in an attribute? A space is not an empty string in my definition.

Text Input field return char problem

I have a multiline text input field used as a message area on a form (sending mail through a PHP doc). When I hit return to start new paragraph in that field and the form content is send and received at other end everything after that return is lost? Any ideas would be fantastic...
Marc

copy the code between the dotted lines and attach it to the same timeline that contains your submit button:
var sendLV:LoadVars=new LoadVars();
var receiveLV:LoadVars=new LoadVars();
receiveLV.onData=function(src){
trace("received");
trace(src); // or use a textfield to see the return if you're not able to see trace output when testing
// and you should attach code to objects. assign an instance name to your submit button (say submitBtn) and use:
submitBtn.onRelease=function(){
sendLV.name = form.nameTF.text; // assign properties to sendLV that your php is expecting. assign values to those properties using the form data
sendLV.email=...
sendLV.message=...
sendLV.sendAndLoad("email.php",receiveLV,"POST");
trace("sent\n"+sendLV.message)
and change your email.php file to:
<?php
echo $_POST['message'];
?>

Add data to table view from input fields in a page

Hi
        I am developing a BSP page which will be called from SRM shop transaction. After user enters the line item data, data will be passed back to shop transaction using OCI interface and the page attributes (URL).
   (1) How can I add data from input fields to table view on a page on a button click? I am able to add first line but I could not retain first line data when I try to add the second line.
      I am able to add multiple lines to table view if I use view and controller by adding to the line data to static attribute of the controller. I cant use the controller and view because I can not set the attribute to Controller automatically.
   (2) Is there a way to pass an attribute (URL) to controller from SPRO? Like we pass an attribute to page automatically (Automatic page attribute).
   (3) How can I call a controller and view and pass the page attribute to the controller on a button click from a page with out controller?
Thanks

How to save changed data from a input field to the source structure

Hi,
I have a small problem with the onChange event with HTML input fields.
When changing a value of a input field or by creating a new value for a field the OnChange event is called by moving away the mouse pointer....
get_form_field( 'field_name' ).
But is it possible to write back the new value in the source field ls_screenstructure_field1 without using the OnInputProcessing?
I ask because my application´s structures have a lot of fields that should be filled and changed by input fields.
It´s not comfortable to request every new value with .. = request->get_form_field(... .
Thanks for helping.
Cheers,
André

you wanted a onchange for a htmlb:inputfield which would also trigger server event. try the following code.
<htmlb:inputField id            = "test"
                            alignment     = "LEFT"
                            size          = "6"
                            required      = "TRUE"
                            doValidate    = "TRUE"
                            type          = "INTEGER"
                             />
<bsp:htmlbEvent id="myid" onClick="myonclick" name="ValueChanged" />
<script for="test" event=onchange type="text/javascript">
alert(this.value);
ValueChanged();
</SCRIPT>
if the value in the inputfield is changed it would trigger a alert at the client side and also trigger a server event. now you can caputre the value in oninputprocessing.
Hope this helps.
do let us know if you need help in how to capture this value in oninputprocessing.

Raja

To add a method on select of a date from a date input field

Hi,
I have a input field which is binded to context element, type date. Hence the output screen has a date popup, from which user can select any dates.
Is it any way i can have a action executed on select of a date value?
I mean when the user selects a date from the date field an wction should be called.
As I have chosen it to be input field so at present I have only the option of OnEnter, which is not fulfilling the requirement.
Regards,
Pranay

Hi Pranay,
Use the Date Navigator instead. It has got the same functionality as Date Picker (this is what you are using) & moreover, you can achieve what you desired. It has got the functions like onDaySelect, onWeekSelect & onMonthSelect & onSelect.
That will trigger the action what you want.

How to Change UI element from input Field to Date Picker

Hi All,
One Custom View is created in which we are pulling some fields from a custom context node created using the value Node.
For one of the field which is already an input field we need to convert it to date picker.
in the GET_P_METHOD
CASE IV_PROPERTY.
WHEN 'fieldType'.
rv_value = cl_bsp_dlc_view_descriptor=>field_type_radio.
WHEN 'radioCols'.
rv_value = '1'.
ENDCASE.
We can change the attribute to clbsp_dlc_view_descriptor_ and bring
checkbox,radiobutton,hyperlink and all but not finding anything for Date picker.
Can anyone suggest a method by which we can convert a UI element to Date Picker.
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Sijo

The technical data type for that field should be DATS then input help will automatically come.
Also in get_m method of that attribute should have
metadata = cl_crm_uiu_bt_date_tools=>get_m_date( ir_model_binding = me
iv_attribute_path = attribute_path ).

Shobhit
