Large field even after validation transform

Hi, I am working on BODS 4.0 with Oracle 11.2 as Repo. I am using validation transform to calculate the length of the string . Validation will fail if record length is greater than 60. I am sending pass records to table temp1 and send failed records table temp2. I have defined the field length to 60 in temp1.
After this when I run Job then I get error on table temp1 that record length is 65 and field is of 60. I am working with Russian data. Russian is multi byte character CYRILLIC data.
Now if SAP has field defined as  varchar(60) then how can I make sure that only records with length 60 or less are send.
Even though I am checking length 60 in validation but inactual it is taking more space and can not be inserted into field of length 60.
Thanks,

Hi,
I've done the same test on BODS 3.1 ver and didn't see any error messages and Job run successfully with correct results.
I've given one field as 90 chars.
Please let me know if you need any further help . My emails is mohan.salla at telegraph.co.uk
cheers

  • Popup is closed when command link is pressed even after validation exceptio

    Hi Techies,
    I am using JDeveloper 11.1.1.4. I have a sample .jspx page which has a table, a command link and a popup. When the user clicks the command link, the popup gets shown.
    The popup contains af:panelWindow as a direct child. panel window as a panel group layout which contains input box and a command link. The input text has a validation. Now my problem is even though the validation fails If i click the command link in the popup, the popup gets disappeared. Thankfully it is not updated in the database (Infact, the action and actionlisteners themselves are not getting called since the validation fails. Hope this is the expected behaviour) But my question is: could somebody tell my how to prevent the popup from hiding when i click the command link in popup once after the validation fails?
    Regards,
    V. Praveen

    Hi Praveen,
    Can you try with partialSubmit for the command link?
    Also use required partialTriggers as you want to refresh. Do not refresh the popup in your bean code.

  • Changing a fields type after validation

    I am having an issue with trying to figure out how to change a fields type (i.e. User Entered - Required) after I validate a test sheet that the user filled out. It is basically an interactive answer sheet that grades itself when the user is finished answering the questions, I just need to know how to make that field read-only after the user has finished the test. Any ideas on how to go about doing this?
    Thanks,
    Ryan Crocker

    No, it would be
    GradeTest.access = "open";

  • Retain all form field values after input text field validation failure

    Hi,
    I have a form with 1 input text field, one Command button and one h:selectManyListbox. when User enteres some values in input field and clicks on command button named Add, the value is validated. If input is invalid, then an error message appears next to the field. If input is valid, then the value is added into h:selectManyListbox. Adding to list box is done using Ajax4Jsf.
    Probelm:
    Let's assume user entered 3 valid values one after another and all are added into the list box. When he enters a wrong value, and error message appears. however, the entered values in list box goes away. Is there a way to retain the values even after validation failure.
    Code is given below;

    </t:panelGroup>
    Thanks in advance,

    Use the attribute "binding" instead of a "value". This will remember the value. You can also make sure that you dont have anything in your constructor or class level that initialises that value to "" or null. Because if JSF is remembering your value but your initialization that gets triggered before the page loading resets it to default values then you need to change that part of the code.

  • Fields are still in EDIT mode even after Saving the Transaction in UI

    Hello Experts ,
    We are facing one problem in UI .
    We have added the BLOCK " Subject" in Complaint transaction ( BT120H_CPL) .
    We are able to fill the data in the fields for subject block like " Code, Code Gruppe etc, but even after saving the transaction these fields are in Edit mode .
    Can anyone give some pointers/solution to this ?
    Regards
    VB

    Hello,
    if the fields are in Edit mode or closed is controlled by the attribute VIEW_GROUP_CONTEXT of the controller class (*IMPL).
    There are also methods to change this VIEW_GROUP_CONTEXT depending on the requirement like "DISABLE_VIEW_GROUP_CONTEXT".
    But as i understood you correctly you do not have a own developed view but a SAP standard view. In this case i would create a OSS-Message for the issue.
    But feel free to do some debugging on this VIEW_GROUP_CONTEXT.
    Best regards

  • Form holding old fields and data even after deleting

    Hi all:
    I've been searching but can't find anyone else having this problem. I have a form that was created (a set of 3 fillable vouchers). The users decided to just have one voucher per page and had me delete all the fields in the first 2 vouchers. The crazy part is even though the fields are gone, if i do an EDIT -> SELECT ALL it highlights all the old fields even though they are gone now. What is even worse, if I then copy and then paste into a word document, you can see all the data that used to be in those fields. Surely there must be a way to purge all that out of there? Anyone have any ideas? It's pretty scary to think of a form holding all that data in there (and it isn't just grabbing it from my cache as I tested it on several different pc's and it does the same on all of them).
    Thanks!

  • ARQ: Manager/Role Owner can modify request details even after submitting the request???

    Hi All,
    I have noticed that after Submitting (Approving) a request, manager or role owner can still modify the user details (field are editable) like role validity date etc in a request. This is quite weird!
    Although, after submitting a request by a requester, all field are disabled.
    Has any one encountered with this problem? How can I control this?
    Please advise.
    Regards,
    Faisal

    Alessandro,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Yes, I got it and that is why I got confused.
    This EUP I have defined and the desired fields are visible and editable and seems to be working fine.
    However, the problem is, even after submitting a request, manager and role owner is able to edit the values in the fields which is incorrect!
    Actually, once a request is submitted, I believe request should be only display mode!
    You know what, this is working absolutely fine with requester. Meaning, once a requester submits a request, then all fields are disabled and values in them can not be modified any more.
    But I am not sure why this is not happening with managers/role owners.
    Please advise.
    Regards,
    Faisal

  • CK40N - Still open even after applying the note

    Hello Everyone!
    Greetings!
    Experiencing issues in the costing run. SAP ECC 5.0
    After the marking job completion observed that there are some u2018Still Openu2019 items. After some research found the SAP notes u2013 0000542790, 0001321242 & 0001402978.
    SAP note 0000542790 is not applicable to us as the client is on SAP ECC 5.0. For the short term fix, as per the note 542790 have executed the command u2018=cksuu2019. It worked.
    To apply the notes 0001321242, 0001402978 was testing in the test systems and I still see the u2018STILL OPENu2019 items even after implementing the SAP notes 0001321242 and 0001402978. Both the notes have been sucessfully implemented and also verified the corrections.
    Any suggestions/advice, please. Thanks in advance !
    Satish

    Hi Satish,
    There can be valid reasons for the 'still open' Materials.
    The following are reasons for 'still open'
    1. the materials were included in another costing run so there was an
    overlap in released cost estimates
    2. there was already a released cost estimate for those materials so
    the system did not allow for another one - this could have been costed
    manually and released manually (ck11) rather than in ck40n
    3. there was a stop in the job that ran to release them (you mentioned
    periods were closed). After the restart, some of the statistics could
    have been incorrectly updated.
    Furthermore, please see the note:
    542790     Inconsistency correction: Costing run statistics
    If need need to find the 'still open' Materials.
    If you run tCode 'SE16' and view the table table KALM which contains
    the entries for all materials costed within the costing run.
    Field 'KALM-FEH_STATUS is the cost estimate's status after step costing.
    1) Find cost estimates created originally within cstg run
    So, you have to select all entries of KALM for the specific costing
    run which are having KALM-FEH_STATUS = 'KA'.
    This is the number of cost estimates which should have been marked in
    the later marking step.
    2) Find cost estimates released successfully
    The set of released cost estimates is given by selection of table
    KEKO: specify KALAID and KALADAT and FEH_STA = 'FR'.
    3) Find missing cost estimates
    Compare the results of 1) and 2):
    Which material/plant have an KALM entry, but not a released cost
    cost estimate ?
      > this will be the set of cost estimates you are looking for...

  • Invoice not updated even after rebate recalculation

    Hi,
    I am facing issue with 14 invoices which are not being updated with Rebate even after rebate recalculation.
    Below screenshot of one of those invoice, where it says that agreement exists.
    the entry is present in VBOX as well.
    Agreement validity period dates are also ok.
    And after SDBONT06, the agreement still shows the message that "sales volume is not current"
    Kindly check that what could be the issue here which is stopping the invoice and agreement to be updated.
    Regards,
    Aayush Jain
    SAP SD Consultant

    Hi Aayush
    The message 'condition record exists but has not been set' just means that currently in the document the condition is not present but if you created the same document item now pricing would find a valid condition. SDBONT06 normally would do a new pricing of the rebate conditions with pricing type I and in these circumstances you should expect that it would find this condition if it falls within the validity of the agreement.
    So you issue here is why SDBONT06 does not find the condition.
    The field 'business group' in your access sequence.
    Is it a standard field fomr KOMG that is filled in standard or is it handled in a user exit ?
    It would seem likely that this field is filled in the billing transactions VF01/VF02 etc but it is not
    filled in VBOF ?
    Check how it is filled.Have a look at note 391314 this descibes what you have to consider  regarding the internal tables for Z fields when using custom fields in your access sequences.
    I hope it helps you further
    Kind regards

  • Reset the form to Null or Reload the page using reset even after a submit

    Hi ,
    This is the scenario:
    I have two button - Submit and Reset
    Submit is used for validation and after validation is passed it passes it to another form to enter into database.
    Bascially the reset works fine if I use it before using the submit button in the form. For instance,if on submit there is some error as the values have not passed a validation. There is a error pop up message shown and the values are retained in the field and Now if I use reset , all the values of the field do not go back to null.
    I am new with form validation. I checked online and it said that reset will not clear if we have used submit and we need to use javascript to do it.
    So I made reset into a button which onclick event calls the reset() function and clears the form but I am sure that the code is not right as it is not working, I tired putting a alert message in my function to reassue that the function is being called but I think it is not.
    Posting my code
    <INPUT id=reset1 name=reset1 type =button value=Reset onClick="reset()">
    <Script>
    function reset()
    alert ("all values shall be cleared now");
    document.frmUser.name.value = "" ;
    document.frmUser.uservalue  = "" ;
    document.frmUser.contactNumbervalue  = "";
    document.frmUser.emailvalue  = "" ;
    </Script>
    I am not sure if its the best way to do it.
    I want the whole form to refresh/ reload every time reset is clicked and all the fields to have no values.
    Thanks for the help in advance.

  • Can't delete a file displayed in ListView ("File in use") even after removing it from window.

    I have a ListView displaying a collection of icons. The user can then select different icons (checkboxes) to do things like Copy or Delete.
    Problem is, when I try to delete the actual file from the disk, I get an error telling me the file is "in use" ("vshost.exe", the VS runtime during testing).
    I thought maybe it was because it still appeared in the window and was still in the ImageList, but even after removing it from both locations, I still get the error. My code:
    Dim intCnt As Integer = 0
    Do
    ImageList2.Images.RemoveAt(intIconsChecked(intCnt)) ' Remove from collection.
    lsvCollection.Items.RemoveAt(intIconsChecked(intCnt)) ' Remove from ListView window.
    FileIO.FileSystem.DeleteFile(strIconPath & "\Icon" & Format(intCnt + 1, "00") & ".rsc") ' "+1" b/c Icons start with "01".
    FileIO.FileSystem.DeleteFile(strIconPath & "\Icon" & Format(intCnt + 1, "00") & ".png") ' "In use" Error here.
    ".rsc" deletes just fine, so I know I'm deleting the correct file. Why does VS still think the file is still "in use"?
    Thx

    Mugsy,
    Consider this as food for thought, even if you don't use it.
    If you set it up right then you can control how it works. A reference is a reference and any left behind will cause you grief down the road when you try to delete things.
    As an example, a simple class follows. It does *not* implement IDispose, although it does have a private shared Dispose method in it:
    Public Class MyImages

    Private _sourceFilePath As String
    Private Sub New(ByVal bmp As Bitmap, _
    ByVal name As String, _
    ByVal filePath As String)
    _bmp = bmp
    _sourceFilePath = filePath.Trim
    _name = name.Trim
    End Sub
    Public ReadOnly Property Bmp As Bitmap
    Get
    Return _bmp
    End Get
    End Property
    Public ReadOnly Property Name As String
    Get
    Return _name
    End Get
    End Property
    Public ReadOnly Property SourceFilePath As String
    Get
    Return _sourceFilePath
    End Get
    End Property

    instance._bmp = Nothing

    End Sub
    End Class
    When you look through that, look specifically at the "Remove" method and in particular, look at the order in which things are done. That's the critical part in this.
    I tested it with a simple form:
    Two buttons, a checkbox, and a picturebox. I also copied a small folder full of image files to my desktop since I'll be deleting a file from it. Following is the code for Form1:

    Option Explicit On
    Option Infer Off
    Imports System.IO.Path

    Private miList As New List(Of MyImages)
    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
    ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
    Handles MyBase.Load
    Dim desktop As String = _
    My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.Desktop
    Dim imgFolder As String = _
    Combine(desktop, "Images")
    PictureBox1.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.FixedSingle
    For Each imgFilePath As String In My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles(imgFolder)
    MyImages.AddNew(miList, imgFilePath)
    Next
    btn_RemoveFirstImage.Enabled = False
    CheckBox_RemoveSourcePath.Enabled = False
    End Sub
    Private Sub btn_ShowFirstImage_Click(sender As System.Object, _
    e As System.EventArgs) _
    Handles btn_ShowFirstImage.Click
    Try
    If miList.Count >= 1 Then
    With PictureBox1
    .SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.Zoom
    .Image = miList(0).Bmp
    End With
    btn_RemoveFirstImage.Enabled = True
    CheckBox_RemoveSourcePath.Enabled = True
    End If
    Catch ex As Exception
    MessageBox.Show(String.Format("An exception was thrown:{0}{0}{1}", vbCrLf, ex.Message), _
    "Exception", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Warning)
    End Try
    End Sub
    Private Sub btn_RemoveFirstImage_Click(sender As System.Object, _
    e As System.EventArgs) _

    Running it is straightforward:
    Now when I click to show the first one:
    A different image is shown because that first one no longer exists - either in the collection or in the folder.
    Closing/disposing all references is the key and the order matters.
    Something to consider the next time around. :)
    Still lost in code, just at a little higher level.

  • I've exported my pages graphics document as a PDF file and can't seem to reduce the file size without compromising the quality of the photo's used even after choosing "best" quality.  I'm trying to send the file via e-mail but it's too big.  ??????

Please.

    If there are a lot and/or large images the file will inevitably be large, no matter what.
    You can reduce them down as far as possible by cropping and scaling them to the final size before creating the pdf. You can do this by opening the images in Preview .app and using Menu > Tools to reduce the resolution and to crop.
    If you have used transparency effects eg shadow, reflection, transparency, 3D charts, OSX will by default render these at 72dpi in the pdf.

  • I'm trying to burn my audiobooks on CDs.  Got through three books just fine, then my CD/DVD drive "disappeared."  I rebooted and got it back, but iTunes says, even after I un- and re-installed it, that it doesn't have the registries to burn CDs.

    I'm trying to burn my audiobooks on CDs.  Got through three books just fine, then my CD/DVD drive "disappeared."  I rebooted and got it back, but iTunes says, even after I un- and re-installed it, that it doesn't have the registries to burn CDs.  How can I retrieve this capability?  My audiobooks are from Audible.

    I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

  • Why is the Lightroom preview folder so big, even after purging the 1:1 previews?

    1:1 or full-size previews take up a large amount of HD space, often many 10's of GB's. This is why building them on demand is an alternative to building them up front, and why you have options for auto or manually purging them. That said, it may not always be possible to delete 1:1 previews - more later. 
    Standard-sized previews are based on the pixel size option you chose in Catalog Settings. You have 4 choices: 1024, 1440, 1680 and 2048. If all you want is standard-sized then choose a size equal to or greater than your screen size. Lr also builds smaller versions at the same time. These are used for the thumbnail, 1:2, 1:3 and 1:4 zoom levels. Adobe call this the "preview pyramid". 
    1:1 previews will not be deleted unless your chosen standard-sized preview is less than half the size of the full-sized preview. For example, you have images with pixel dimensions of 3072 by 2048 pixels (6MP camera such as Canon 10D) and have selected 1680 pixels for standard-sized previews. Since a 1680 pixel preview is more than half the size of the original the full-sized preview will be kept, even after using the purge 1:1 preview command. Had you chosen 1440 pixel for standard-sized previews then the full-sized would have been purged (i.e. 3072/2=1536, which is greater than 1440). Now take the example of a larger camera, say a 8MP camera such as the Canon 1DMKII with an image size of 3504 by 2336 pixels. With the standard-sized set at 1680 pixels the full-size will again be purged (i.e. 3504/2=1752 pixels, which is greater than 1680 pixels). 
    Another thing worth mentioning - Lightroom will usually delay purging previews for deleted images until after the application has been closed and reopened, even then it might take a few minutes to clear the purged previews. The idea here is to ensure the previews don't get deleted whilst there's still a chance that they may be needed (e.g. you removed images by mistake then use Undo command to reinstate them). 
    Hopefully above explains why Lightroom doesn't behave as you expect. If it makes your head spin, think how much mine spun when writing it.

    The chance of an answer is inversely proportional to the length of the posting. ;)
    You do not indicate what your preview setting was while you accumulated a 12Gb preview folder. Nor do you indicate how many images are in your catalog.
    Given your screen size of 1280 (laptp?) I would set the preview size to 1440 since this is still far less than half of your D3 images.
    Cropping - I'll safely guess - has no effect on your preview size choices.
    I confess that preview sizing and purging is confusing. I avoid the confusion by shouting "more disk, mama".
