Listing attributes and characteristics

Here is my problem: List the attributes and characteristics of the following tables: Customer,Ord,Item,Products,Price
How do I do this is one script?

The data dictionary views contain all the information about database objects.
SQL*Plus has a DESCRIBE command (usually abbreviated to DESC) that lists attributes for a specified object.

When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page.

When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page. I don't want to have to check off an additional 5 or 6 attributes each time I print out contact information. Is there a way to change the default setting for printing lists, so it is not just "phone," "photo," and "job title?"

I have a user who wants to do this same thing. I did not find any way either to default the attributes to anything other than what you see the first time. Seems like such a trivial thing, hard to believe they do not allow it. I did find a program for this called iDress but I can't seem to download it from any links on the Internet. Not sure if it is free or not, but it was recommended by a link on the Mac support site.

List users and their attributes

Hello,
We are on SRM 5.0 and I am looking for a report which lists users and their attributes. So for instance username / position and all catalogs assigned to them.
Thanks for your help!

Hi Antoinette,
There are no standard reports for this requirement. I have already posted a code sample for this requirement.

What is diffrernce between key figures and characteristics?

Hi all,
I am a newbie to SAP BI....i am doing Masters in ERP(SAP)....I have confusion about what is basic difference between key figures and characteristics?
Why do we have to define attributes in characteristics?
If any one can refer me a thread that answers my questions or explain with very lucid example I will highly appreciate it.....please answer this question as I have just spend 4-5 months studying BI and have not really implemented in the Industry but we do have access to SAP BI where we perform tutorials....
Also please let me know the links to materials where basics of BI are explained in a very simple way.....
Thanks,

KF is anything which can quantitatively measured: Amount, Number, Value, Price... whatever you want to measure is called Key Figure. This key figures are also called KPI (Key Performance Indicator). If you want to know the number of sales orders, the number of deliveries, the amount of deliveries... all are key figures
And to add to that, key figures are also divided into two:
Cumulative KF: Like I said, amount, value, price
Non-cumulative KF, this is different kind of key figures which shouldn't be summed up, for example: Age, Inventory, Number of Employees. When you measure this key figures, you don't add the age of every body, because that doesn't make any sense, but adding the sum of all deliveries, or adding all Sales does make sense, that is the difference between the two key figures.
Characteristics: are anything which couldn't be quantitatively measured: material, customer, plant, employee ID and so on...
Aways, in BI you measure the KF against the Key figures..
thanks.

Attributes and attribute values for a Product

Hi all
Is there any table or FM from where I can get a list of all the attributes and the attribute values linked to a particular product?
I got tables which link product with Prod Category, Prod Category with Set types and so on.
Could anyoe please provide me an FM which will give the attribute and its values for a particular product?
Please help!!
Regards
Debolina

Attributes created under s settype will be under the table with the name of that particular settype itself i.e Table name and the settype name are the same.
The other part of your question of where to find the list of all settypes and their corresposing attributes, you can make use of COMM_PR_FRG_REL.

CR Reports 2008: Space Between HTML Attribute and Value Causes Attribute To Be Ignored

I have a field in a report with its Text interpretation set to "HTML Text". When content is rendered in that field that was sourced from a Microsoft Word document, some of the attributes seem to be ignored by Crystal.
For example, I have observed with "style" attributes that if there is a space between the attribute and the value, e.g. "FONT-FAMILY: SimSun" then Crystal will not render the Asian characters, replacing them with squares. However, if I manually remove the space so that the attribute appears as "FONT-FAMILY:SimSun", then the characters properly render as expected. I have observed the same issue with at least one other attribute as well, "FONT-SIZE".
This html does render properly in various browsers, so it seems to be an issue with Crystal Reports. Can you provide me with information about this and if there is a fix for it in subsequent versions. The version I tested with is 2008 - 12.5.0.1190.
Thanks for any assistance that you can provide.

hi Ethan,
here are the list of supported html tags in text interpretation...font family is indeed a supported tag.
does the html appear properly in the designer?...you mentioned various browsers and am wondering if you mean the crystal web viewers?
if the issue is in your cr designer, you may wish to patch it to the latest level.
also, ensure that you do not have any unsupported tags in your html that may be causing an issue.

Listing attributes of a particular level in a dimension via API call

Hi,
We are using the Oracle OLAP Java api's to browse the metadata and contents of an OLAP schema. We need to be able to access an api that lists just the Attributes that are mapped to a particular Level within a dimension.
Note the following snippet of code can be added to the OLAP Java examples. This displays a list of key value pairs. The keys are the unique level identifier in the form "HIERARCHY::LEVEL::ID", the value is the contents of the specified attribute. The result would be suitable for input to a combo box control in a JSP or similar.
public static void getFilters(String dimension, String hierarchy, String level, String attribute) throws Exception {
MdmPrimaryDimension mdmDimension = getMdmPrimaryDimension(dimension);
MdmHierarchy mdmHierarchy = getContext().getHierarchyByName(mdmDimension, hierarchy);
MdmLevel mdmLevel = getContext().getLevelByName((MdmLevelHierarchy) mdmHierarchy, level);
MdmAttribute mdmAttribute = getContext().getAttributeByName( mdmDimension, attribute);
StringSource levelSource = (StringSource)mdmLevel.getSource();
StringSource attributeSource = (StringSource)mdmAttribute.getSource();
Source querySource = attributeSource.join(levelSource);
try {
prepareAndCommit();
getContext().displayResult(querySource);
} catch (oracle.olapi.data.source.UnmatchedInputsException e) {
System.out.println("UNMATCHED ID's " + e.getUnmatchedInputIDs());
Prior to calling this we need a way of prompting the user to select the appropriate attribute to display in the value field of the list. We can get the full list of attributes for the Dimension with the following code snippet:
MdmPrimaryDimension mdmDimension = getMdmPrimaryDimension(dimension);
List attributes = mdmDimension.getAttributes();
However calling the code below returns an empty attribute list.
MdmPrimaryDimension mdmDimension = getMdmPrimaryDimension(dimension);
MdmHierarchy mdmHierarchy = getContext().getHierarchyByName(mdmDimension, hierarchy);
MdmLevel mdmLevel = getContext().getLevelByName((MdmLevelHierarchy) mdmHierarchy, level);
List attributes = mdmLevel.getAttributes();
What api's can we call that would let us list just the attributes mapped to the Level in question?
Any help is appreciated.

Ed

Hi all,
i have a problem in sap biw 3.5 .at query designer level i have issue is
i have master data CHARECTRISTICS OUC_CONTRACT having attributes mvn_date,leg_mvn_date .i need to display union of both dates in single column.

Your simplest solution is to modify your infoobject and create a new attribute that is the characteristic that you wish to display. Update the transfer rule or DTP with a function that merges the two other attributes into the new attribute, and then use that attribute in your query.
Alternatively you can set these attributes up as Navigational attributes, and then you can manipulate them as independent characteristics in your query results. But this will significantly reduce the performance of your query.

Extending VOs with attributes and creating new treetable columns

Hi,
I am relatively new to the ADF scene so please bear with if what I have in my mind is not even possible with ADF. I have searched hi and lo for a solution and now I thoughts it time to ask the community.
Anyways this is what I want to do. I have a simple DB Table that has a hierarchy i.e Trees with roots much like the Employee hierarchy. Except this table has ids for items that come from external systems ( via Web Services in my case ) and / or ids to items in a table that resides in the local schema. So basically this structure table of mine only has relationships and the detail items need to be joined via an association ( in ADF terminology ) in the treetable component somehow.
* Now creating the structure hierarchy is not a big issue. I have that part done already.
* I have the VO from WS ready that gets the items that I might need to show as detail columns in the tree table.
* Querying the local item Detail VO for detail rows might also be not that problematic.
* Merging the above 2 columns to create a consolidated row set is also not that challenging whereby each column header is premapped to internal and external fields. This mapping is configurable to add more fields as required by a user to the treetable.
What I am struggling with is that when I have this merged row set, how will I make it appear on the UI. The treetable seems to utterly not support this i.e. adding new columns at runtime. Following is what I have been able to establish till now.
* The addDynamicAttribute methods on the View Object are not meant for this purpose. While they do add the attributes and you can set and get them after using this method, they do not render and I can't find a way to dynmically rendering them somehow for tree table.
* Looked at the ADF dynamic components. They support only table and page. No go. Or do the whole tree thing somehow in the table component, Will look odd but might still work.
* Looked at this article ( http://one-size-doesnt-fit-all.blogspot.com/2007/05/back-to-programming-programmatic-adf.html ) . I found a comment in the forum regarding this that this might not be all that efficient. Not to mention the fact that it uses the deprecated TreeModels class in 11g.
** Just regarding this apporach what are the new 11g recommended TreeModel classes to be used instead of the deprecated one. I have read the follow-up post but that just points to the location of where the deprecated classes moved to in 11g under the apache contribution. And makes the example work under 11g. What was this TreeModel class replaced with. Anyone knows ?
** How could I access my VO objects in the TreeTableApater ? Can I declare my merged View object wrapped in a TreeItem POJO object. Theoretically it is on the view layer right ?
** If this approach is inefficient has anyone another solution that might work ?
Or just has anyone managed to extend the treetable in any different sort of way. Any tips/help pointers would be deeply appreciated.
Best Regards,

Hi,
So I had some time to look at this problem again. I created a ChildPropertyTreeModel and binded it to my treetable component and moved the generation of the columns to the jspx page. I got it mostly working but the columns generation part mostly escapes me still.
here is how the jspx page looks like that renders the treetable, and which works fine :
<af:treeTable rowBandingInterval="0" id="dynTTbl" var="row" expandAllEnabled="true"
binding="#{backingBeanScope.DynamicTreeTableBB.dynamicTreeTable}"
value="#{backingBeanScope.DynamicTreeTableModel}">
<f:facet name="nodeStamp">
<af:column sortable="false" headerText="Node Stamp" id="c1">
<af:outputText value="#{row.tableColumnVal[0]}" id="ot1"/>
</af:column>
</f:facet>
<af:forEach begin="1" end="2" varStatus="status">
<af:column>
<f:facet name="header">
<af:outputText value="#{status.index}"/>
</f:facet>
<af:inputText value="#{row.tableColumnVal[status.index]}"/>
</af:column>
</af:forEach>
</af:treeTable>
I want the forEach loop to look a bit differently like below :
<af:forEach items="row.tableColumnVal" var="columnVal" varStatus="status">
<af:column>
<f:facet name="header">
<af:outputText value="#{status.index}"/>
</f:facet>
<af:inputText value="#{columnVal}"/>
</af:column>
</af:forEach>
This should work for a list or array but evidently in my case it is not. I have a suspicion that the "items" attribute is unable to recognize the row.tableColumnVal attribute of mine. I have no way of checking this out or finding out if I am doing something wrong.
My sample project can be found here, if anyone quickly wants to run this on Jdev 11g
http://rapidshare.com/files/438880281/TreeTableTest.zip
P.S. I have tried to convert the tableColumnVal attribute to a List an array and a Map. The first forEach syntax works everytime but the second one fails always and I want the second one to work somehow.

[Error]List attribute binding not properly updating Iterator value

Hi,
I created an ADF Form page with ADF navigation buttons. Along with that I added Create, Commit and Rollback buttons in the form. One of my attributeValue binding i changed it to dynamic list binding with another iterator (LOV style). I removed all field required properties to false and put showRequried property with corresponding binding attribute mandatory option in order to avoid alert messages. I also removed disabled option of commit and rollback to false option so that every time it will be enabled. There are fields in the form which are set as mandatory from entity. List is also a mandatory attribute.
When I press next, pervious buttons List points to corresponding LOV value perfectly. Now I press create and press submit without filling mandatory fields, JBO error is thrown. e.g. "JBO-27014: Attribute RociType in RociView is required". Now i press Rollback button, it comes back to first record. but List is showing empty. Again if i press Next button also, list value shows empty. When I printed the value of List attribute in an outputText #{bindings.RociType.inputValue} shows blank and #{bindings.RociType.attributeValue} shows orginal record value. #{bindings.RociType.inputValue} should show the corresponding index of iterator. Somehow after rollback this index is not properly updating.
Please help to solve this problem.

Hi,
After doing debug I understood that Rollback is not clearning Error list inside IteratorBinding. Due to that it is not getting proper input value. Please find the code for getInputValue() inside JUCtrlListBinding class.
    * Primarily for spel support. Could be removed prior to 905Prod and merged into a get()
    * method for spel-access.
    * <p>
    * Returns the last input value for the first attribute on this binding if this value
    * raised an exception. Otherwise returns the value from the model object calling
    * getAttribute(0);
    * @javabean.property
   public Object getInputValue()
      getError();
      if (mErrExc != null)
         return mInputVal;
      int sel = getSelectedIndex();
      if (mInputVal != null && (sel == -1 || sel == mNullValueIndex))
         return mInputVal;
      return new Integer(sel);
   }Is there a way to clear Errors inside Iteratorbinding when I press Rollback ???

Open Hub with Attributes and Texts

Hi,
I´d like to know if it´s possible to have one open hub (database table) with texts and attributes.
There´s no problem when I create it or it´s transformations and DTP´s, but when I try to load texts, after attributes load, it always generates a dump: SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC.
I´d like to know a way without using a DSO, any suggestions?!
Kind Regards,
Tomas

Hi,
Pls chk SAP notes system, check SAP note 668466 for some help for this error.
*As according to SAP NOTE ;668466*
Summary
Symptom
You load master data attributes or texts for a characteristic. The loading terminates with runtime errors of the type SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC or with error message RSDMD 199. The termination point is in the DBFIRE method of the CL_RSDMD_UPDATE_MASTER_DATA class.
Other terms
Loading master data, attributes, texts, SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC, CL_RSDMD_UPDATE_MASTER_DATA, DBFIRE
Reason and Prerequisites
When you load attributes or texts, data records are usually inserted in the master data tables of the characteristic using an array insert statement (P, Q, X, Y, T tables). This results in a SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC runtime error if data records that are to be inserted and that relate to the unique primary key of the relevant database table already exist in this table. The following possible reasons are currently known for the occurrence of the SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC runtime error:
1. Data inconsistencies in the master data tables of the characteristic
SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC runtime errors or RSDMD 199 may occur if the data appears in an inconsistent status in the master data tables of the characteristic before you load attributes or texts. Notes 323140, 566044, 592757 and 599269 describe this (among other things) in more detail.
2. Parallel loading of nondisjunct data packages
If master data attributes are loaded over several dialog processes that are running in parallel, you must guarantee that the data packages of the relevant request are strictly disjunct concerning the characteristic value. This means that all data records that belong to a certain characteristic value may only be contained in a single data package. If data records of a certain characteristic value are distributed over several data packages, this may cause conflicts during the parallel loading of these packages when the master data tables are accessed and this may result in SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC runtime errors.
The same conditions that apply to loading attributes also apply to loading language-independent master data texts. If language-dependent texts are loaded in parallel, the data packages must be disjunct in relation to the combination of characteristic value and language indicator.
Note 566044 also describes the problematic nature of nondisjunct data packages or duplicate or overlapping data records.
3. Parallel loading of time-dependent attributes or texts
When you load time-dependent attributes or texts, a data record that is to be loaded is assigned to a characteristic value and also specifically to a time interval within which the contained attribute values or texts are valid. For this reason, requests for loading time-dependent attributes or texts typically contain several data records for each characteristic value. If data records of a certain characteristic value or the combination of characteristic value and language indicator are distributed over several data packages, this may (as already explained) cause conflicts when the master data tables are accessed and may result in SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC runtime errors or error message RSDMD 199.
4. Delta update of an ODS object in a characteristic
If you use a delta update from an ODS object to load master data attributes or texts, the activation of the ODS object determines the contents of the data packages that are used for loading the attributes or texts. If all of the ODS loading requests that are used as the data basis for the update into the characteristic are activated together in one step, this guarantees that the system sets up the data packages strictly disjunct in relation to the key fields of the ODS object. If the key fields of the ODS object are displayed one for one on the compounded characteristic value in the update rules, the data may be updated to the characteristic in parallel and by package.
However, if ODS loading requests that were activated at different times appear in the data basis for the update, data records of a certain ODS key or characteristic value may be distributed over several data packages. As already explained, this may cause conflicts when you access master data tables of the characteristic, and it may result in SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC runtime errors or error message RSDMD 199.
This problem is also described in Note 666213.
5. Simultaneous loading of attributes and transaction data
If, when loading attributes of a characteristic, you discover that there are still no entries in the master data tables (P, Q) for a specific characteristic value, the system prepares to insert corresponding data records into these database tables. You can load transaction data into an InfoCube or an ODS object, for example, with the option to create missing master data entries for characteristics that involved during the loading. If a request now creates entries for transaction data in the master data tables (P, Q) of the characteristic before the process has inserted corresponding data records into the master data tables (P, Q) for loading attributes for this characteristic, this may result in a SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC runtime error or error message RSDMD 199.
This problem may also occur if you load attributes simultaneously for a characteristic that contains the other characteristic as a navigation attribute or compounding part. If a characteristic is compounded to other characteristics or if it contains characteristics other than the navigation attributes, the system also creates SID values for these dependent characteristics when the attributes are loaded depending on the settings in the InfoPackage.
Solution
To repair a possible inconsistency in the data, implement the RSRV test for master data.
To avoid SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC runtime errors or error message RSDMD 199 when you load master data, carry out the following actions. The actions to be performed in each case depend on which of the above-mentioned reasons is responsible for the runtime error:
1. Data inconsistencies in the master data tables of the characteristic
If data inconsistencies are responsible for the runtime error, you can usually use the tests in transaction RSRV or the RSDMD_CHECKPRG_ALL program to solve this problem. Notes 323140, 566044, 592757 and 599269 describe these (among other things) in more detail. If you cannot implement an automatic correction in this way, you may have to use an ABAP program that is adjusted to the relevant situation to restore the data consistency.
2. Parallel loading of nondisjunct data packages
If the runtime error does not lead back to the parallel loading of nondisjunct data packages, you must identify the duplicate data records that cause the problem. As described in Note 566044, you can change the insertion into master data tables from one array insert to an individual insert statement. If you use a single record insert statement to insert data records, duplicate data records are logged in the monitor by error messages (RSDMD 196). If the data records of a failed request are still available in the PSA, you can also search for duplicate data records directly in the relevant PSA table.
You may also create duplicate data records if key values are changed in the transmission rules or update rules. If relevant rules are defined, you should check these to see if they can possibly create duplicate data records. If this is the case, you must correct the rules accordingly.
3. Parallel loading of time-dependent attributes or texts
The extractors used for loading time-dependent attributes or texts cannot guarantee that all data records assigned to a certain key value are contained together in only one data package. For this reason, to avoid SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC runtime errors or error message RSDMD 199, you should not load time-dependent attributes and texts in parallel. Data packages are processed serially if the 'PSA only' and 'Update Subsequently in Data Targets' settings under 'Processing' are used in the InfoPackage.
4. Delta update of an ODS object in a characteristic
To avoid SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC runtime errors or error message RSDMD 199 during the delta update from an ODS object to a characteristic, you must ensure that the data basis used for the update to the characteristic consists exclusively of ODS loading requests that were activated together in one step only. Note 666213 describes in detail how you can ensure this.
5. Simultaneous loading of attributes and transaction data
If the runtime error occurs because another load task creates SID values or master data for the same characteristic at the same time when attributes are loaded, you can only solve the problem by rescheduling. The load task in question must be scheduled in such a way that you can exclude simultaneous processing.

10g: Enabled list items and scrollbars look disabled

Hi,
Is there any way to change the way list items and scrollbars look in 10g?
Enabled list items and scrollbars look disabled to me (the list button on the list item and the arrow buttons on the scrollbars are greyed out).
Visual attributes doesn't seem able to control this.

Nope you're pretty much stuck with the look and feel of the decoratiosn unless you want to create your own pluggable component - this would give you more control but you'd have to consider if it's worth the investment.

Interface, Attribute and visibility

Dear all,
how can I make my attributes protected or privat in an interface. The class setting up the interface has then the getter and setter methods for the attributes (even the interface has the methods too).
Kind regards
Roman

Hi Roman,
An interface should not be pictured as a template, but more as a communication channel for different objects with common characteristics. If you want a template to create other classes, with private/protected attributes, and methods, I recommend that you use an abstract class. An abstract class will allow you to declare attributes and methods without code. Of course, you cannot instantiate an abstract class; you have to create another class that inherits from it.
Cheers,
Luc
