Load external list

Hi experts,
I'm trying to load external list with web client marketing tool. I managed to load external partner but I have an error when I try to load a BP of an address that does not exist in the system.
What can I do to load a BP without addresses verfication?
Thank you.

You have created one mapping format for loading the list.
Implement the BADI: CRM_MKTLIST_BADI and it has got different methods to check and load for business partners.
debug and change the code as per your requirement.

Infopath 2010 Web Form will not run code behind or load External Lists after FormEvents_Loading added

Building a form to edit and create data in external list. The business rules do not allow for creation in an external list bound InfoPath form. (We are cascade filtering multiple drop down lists from external content type).
All works to write code behind to push new record or update record in external list. The big issue came when trying to add FormEvents_loading event to the code to capture URL parameter. I want to be able to pass the Primary Key of the record to
edit, load the data into the form and allow editing and submit. I have tested by manually entering the data and the form works. The form will no longer load data from external lists for the drop downs and shows an error stating "The custom code
in the form cannot be run. This functionality may be deactivated
on the server. For more information, contact the server farm administrator."
I think this is related to moving from the normal forms services into sandboxed code service. Is there a way to access external content types and still have form loading event capture URL parameters?
The code to capture the URL is listed below:
XPathNavigator myNav1 = this.MainDataSource.CreateNavigator();
string InputF1 = string.Empty;
if (e.InputParameters.ContainsKey("AuthPK"))
InputF1 = e.InputParameters["AuthPK"];
myNav1.SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:CodeData/my:DatabaseUpdateStatus", this.NamespaceManager).SetValue(InputF1);
myNav1.SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:CodeData/my:pk_tblOFCAuthorizations", this.NamespaceManager).SetValue(InputF1);
else
myNav1.SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:CodeData/my:pk_tblOFCAuthorizations", this.NamespaceManager).SetValue("0");
Is there another way to pass parameters to the form? I tried using web part connection, but that does not work with code behind form at all, which would stop me from updating external list.

Hi,
As this question is more related to InfoPath development, I suggest you post it to Visual Studio Tools for Office (VSTO) Forum, more experts will assist you with this issue.

Loading external .swf files issue...

Hi,
I'm working on a simple example of loading external swf files with some ActionScript.
I've placed an instance of List Component and gave it an instance name of loadList. Using Component Inspector, I assigned data for 4 external files as below:
Next, I've added a UILoader component (instance name - loadWindow). The code that is supposed to load the content into UILoader is this:
loadList.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, selectItem);
function selectItem(e:Event):void
loadWindow.source = e.target.selectedItem.data;
When I run it in a FlashPlayer, it only loads the first 2 swf files.... (I checked the files and all files are fine).
I hope to get some light on the issue so any help will be appreciated.

Try tracing e.target.selectedItem.data to make sure it's what you expect.
Also, have you tried using the load() method instead of the source property?

External List and Publishing Pages

Noted here:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/3314833a-8fbf-47dc-b05c-aa3f797e899f/action?threadDisplayName=external-list-not-updating-on-published-page
It is a bug.. but this is from over a year ago.
Specifically, Putting an external list on a publishing page renders correctly until you publish. Once you publish all you see is the "loading" green spinning icon.
One proposed workaround was to use a business list webpart, however I cannot override the jslink of a business data webpart. Any insight into a resolution would be appreciated!
Also, clicking the "Enable Asyncronous Load" doesn't resolve the issue. It continues to remain unchecked when checking the box.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you have an issue about the external list in publishing page.
I can reproduce the issue in the SharePoint server 2013 without installing any CUs or PU.
However, in another SharePoint server 2013 environment which installed the SP1, I add the external list in a publishing page, then publishing the page, the page renders the external list well without any issue.
I recommend you install the SharePoint server 2013 SP1, then check whether it works.
You can download the SP1 in here:

Js Query External List Web Part

I am trying to appply a Js Query to higlight those rows in the external List which have the word "pending". I did this by adding the JS Query in the existing web Part which contains the external list. The below js query does not seem to be
working. Let me know your thoughts. Thx!
Below is my js query.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$Text = $("td .ms-vb2:contains('Pending')");
$Text.parent().css("background-color", "#461B7E");
var myelement = $Text.parent().parent();
$Text = $("td .ms-vb2:contains('Rejected')");
$Text.parent().css("background-color", "#4CC417");
$Text = $("td .ms-vb2:contains('In Progress')");
$Text.parent().css("background-color", "#EAC117");
</script>

Hi,
The External List Web Part is not finish loading even after the page loaded, so we can use setTimeout method to delay executing your code.
The following code for your reference:
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
setTimeout(SetHighLight,1000);
function SetHighLight() {
$Text = $("td .ms-vb2:contains('Pending')");
$Text.parent().css("background-color", "#461B7E");
$Text = $("td .ms-vb2:contains('Rejected')");
$Text.parent().css("background-color", "#4CC417");
$Text = $("td .ms-vb2:contains('In Progress')");
$Text.parent().css("background-color", "#EAC117");
</script>

GetItemCount for an external list returning zero

Hi,
I need to get the count of items in an external list in the client side. I have used the ecmascript to get the count.
However I am getting the count as 0. For native lists, it is returning the count.
<script type="text/javascript">
ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(MainFunction, "sp.js");
var objContext = null;
var objWeb = null
var objList = null;
var objItem = null;
    function MainFunction() {
        objContext = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
        objWeb = objContext.get_web();
        objList = objWeb.get_lists().getByTitle("Product");
        objContext.load(objList);
        objContext.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.onSuccess), Function.createDelegate(this, this.onFail));
    function onSuccess(sender, args) {
        alert('Item Count: ' + objList.get_itemCount());
    function onFail(sender, args) {
        alert('Some error has occured.');
</script>
Please let me know what I am missing.

Hi,
Why are you doing this if its an external list?
objContext = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
objWeb = objContext.get_web();
Provide the appropriate web object where this external list resides.

External list in publishing page

Hi,
I am trying to add a externla list on a publishing page through lis view. It works fine in draft, but the moment its published, the external list doesnt load up, the loading icon keeps going on and on. There is another post where its suggested that its a
known bug. Whats the suggested work around or fix.
regards
Subin

Hmm, I am not finding this to be exactly true. There is an "it depends" that was getting me.
So, to be clear, I had the exact same issue as the original poster. I made an entirely new page and only placed the External List. Bang, same problem. And then I had a moment of clarity and found that if you
do not explicitly use the Business Data List web part (which does not seem to use the pretty green spinner as the waiting icon but, rather, uses the old side-to-side waiting icon) then the waiting icon will hang or freeze after publishing. Once I changed to
the explicity BDC List part it worked fine.

BCS External list limitation

Problem:
I have an
Event Receiver that is executed when I upload an Excel file to a library. This event receiver loads to a SharePoint list all the data from the previous excel file. I have excel files that can have 60.000 records (this takes more than 2 hours to finish).
Solution that we will implement:
An Event Receiver will load all the Excel data to an SQL DB, to speed up all the process.
Today, users can, view, edit and remove all the loaded records.
The actual webpart that shows all the list records, is an out-of-box webpart that groups the records using two columns (title, than a Category) and shows all the 60000 records collapsed by title,
than when you expand a title it shows you all the Category bellow collapsed. If you expand the collpased category it will show you all the records it has bellow.
Our partner doesn’t want to loose any out-of-box feature offered by this webpart.
(order, filtering, exporting to excel, etc.)
We will use BCS between the DB and the SharePoint list, to load the records, previously uploaded to DB from the Excel file.
Problem: Using BCS we can’t find a way to load all the records at once, in order to group it
all by Title. We’ve try paginate the External List directly in Server Side. If we think that we can load 30 records each time, when I want to group the view by "Title" (for instance), I can only show to final user 30 records form the first "Title",
and only shows the first "Title" (this is the correct technical behaviour), but it’s not what my client wants. We want to show all the different "Titles" collapsed.
Do you know any way to achieve this behaviour using BCS? Or do you suggest any other approach? We're trying not to develop
a custom webpart in order to maintain all the oob feature.

Hi TomasT,
Base on my test, external list get data from procedure can also work with filter web part, please make sure your procedure has effective parameters
returned.
Or try to use a drop down list control to filter the external list view web part.

External List, changing the way the links and edit functions work.

I have a External list which has a infopath edit form. I believe the way the navigation works between the list and the edit form is neither intuitive nor proper.
Currently my list contains an asset number as the first column which is a link that takes you to a view form in Infopath
In order to edit
you have to select the drop down next to the item and Select Edit or check the item and click edit on the Item part of the ribbon and click edit. This just seems like too many steps.
I would like to change the link in the first columns to load the Infopath Edit form without further interactions.
I would also like to remove the view option from the drop down so the only option is to edit but that is not really an issue just a want.
thanks in advance.
me

You can change default view settings and user "Edit (link to edit item)" column at first place and dont use any column associated with edit menu. Typically they are [1] Title (linked to item with edit menu)
[2] Title (linked to item) [3] Type (icon linked to document)

Existing 'load external .flv' code?

Recently, I found a great little Flash project that acts like a jukebox for external mp3 song files, and am using it on my website to play my song demos.
I'm now trying to find if there is an existing solution like that for video. I just need some way to progressively download video files from my webspace when the thumbnail is clicked... and am now looking into some sort of Flash jukebox.
I've tried just embedding the video files into HTML, but they don't progressively download for some reason (even though they are saved as Progressive With Compressed Header). I've even tried using prettyPhoto (...a script that mimics a Lightbox like feature, where the whole page dims, and a floating window appears over your site, displaying any media, and allowing you to move back/forth through your list of media)..... works great, but again, not a progressive download, so you stare at a blank screen for a while.
Seems the only way it works is if I have the file on YouTube or some other site, then embed it or use the prettyPhoto app.
So, can someone either tell me how to make the embedded file download (OT, but I figured I'd ask), or point at some existing Flash file that serves as a video jukebox, showing all media on a common window?

Hi,
You can load external .flv files which is placed on your web server. You have to add a small amount of AS3 code into your flash document. Please click on the below link
http://www.adobe.com/livedocs/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/media/Video.html
Please use the sample code which is provided in the bottom of the page. In the code, you will find a line
private var videoURL:String = "Video.flv";
In the above line, instead of "Video.flv", you have to give your webserver path like http://www.domainname.com/foldername/videofilename.flv
(The above code does the progressive download of an video)
You can play the video through progressive download, by click on an image. To achieve that, you need to place the above code inside the mouse click function of an image.
Thanks

Open Directory: "Unable to load replica list"

I'm currently running Mavericks Server 3.1 on my Mac Mini at the home network. I had some issues with the client logins and went for local accounts on the clients instead. Today I finally wanted to fix the problem and go all Open Directory. But the Open Directory service was shut off when I opened the server software. I tried to turn it on but got a message saying "Unable to load replica list". I updated the software to the latest 3.1 but are still having the same issue. I never had any replica list, I only had a standard one from the start, but it seems I can't do anyhing there now.

Cannot add hub-managed content type with external list lookup columns to a list -- Error:Id field is not set on the external data field

This is a variation on the issue mentioned in this
post
We are using SP 2010 Content Hub to manage our content types. On the content hub we've created a couple of exteranl lists, and then created some site columns as lookups against these lists. We then added the columns to one of our content types
and set it to publish.
After the publishing job executed, I tried adding the content type (which now appears on the subscriber sites) to one of the document libraries on one of the subscriber sites. When I did that it threw the following error:
Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls.BusinessDataListConfigurationException: Id field is not set on the external data field

I checked the external content type configuration and it did specify an "id column". Anyone know if what I am attempting to do is possible and if so, what special configurations are required?
Thanks

The issue is not External Content type or external list but the look up column.
It's not possible to publish a look up column via the Content Type Hub.
If you need to do this then an alternate way is to use a Managed Metadata column instead, otherwise you will have to implement this via a feature.

Sharepoint Foundation Can not update External List by Work Flow

Hi
I try to update External List by other list Work Flow, in Sharepoint 2010 Foundation.
Here is the manual：
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff394479(v=office.14).aspx
But it fails , and the error message is “The
workflow could not update the item in the external data source. Make sure the user has permissions to access the external data source and update items.”
Is there some limited in Foundation?

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/0bb9ef28-3614-4db2-b19f-dd81e8cc2d42/the-workflow-could-not-update-the-item-in-the-external-data-source?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious
With no Secure Store in Sharepoint what we ended up doing was creating a new external content type, adding a new connection and picking a connection type of .net type instead of sql. This means we needed to create a .net app as the go between but within
.net we had all the usual tools for connecting to sql without permission issues.

OpenDirectory: Unable To Load Replica List, after Time Machine Restore

I followed the following instructions provided on another thread (Open Directory: "Unable to load replica list"):
Many Open Directory problems can be resolved by taking the following steps.
1. The OD master must have a manually-assigned IP address on the local network, not a dynamic address.
2. The primary DNS server used by the master must be 127.0.0.1 (that is, itself) unless you're using another server for internal DNS. The only DNS server set on the clients should be the internal one, which they should get from DHCP if applicable.
3. Verify that the master's hostname matches its domain name by running the shell command
sudo changeip -checkhostname
4. Follow these instructions to rebuild the Kerberos configuration on the master.
5. If you use authenticated binding, check the validity of the master's certificate. The common name must match the hostname and domain name. Deselecting and then reselecting the certificate in Server.app has been reported to have an effect in some cases.
6. Unbind and then rebind the clients in the Users & Groups preference pane. Use the fully-qualified domain name of the master.
7. Reboot the master and the clients.
8. Don't log in to the server with a network user's account.
9. Export all OD users, delete them, turn off OD, turn it back on, and import. Ensure that the UID's are in the 1001+ range.
And got the following results:
Check.
Check.
Resulted in the following console output: The names match. There is nothing to change.
The touch command resulted in "No such file or directory." I circumvented this by manually creating the migration directory, then running the command again. The killall command failed saying "No matching processes were found." Opening the server app after that shows no change.
My trusted certificate was apparently not restored from the backup, as it was no longer listed. I switched to the self-signed one until a CSR can be made.
I'm not clear on what this actually means. There is no unbind or rebind functionality in the server app. Not to mention that my users or groups are no longer listed.
Nothing changed after rebooting the server.
Have always logged into server using the local server admin account.
Where is this done? I don't see any place to do this in the Server App.
At this point I'm suspecting that there are some serious Time Machine recovery bugs with server, as I have tried with multiple different restore points all ending in the exact same result.
Any recommendations on where to go from here? I would love to do a fresh install, but need to archive the data from the server first. Unfortunately, I don't see how I can export each users' data without being able to log in as them.

There seem to be some issues with PostgreSQL not running. Marketcircle Daylite and Billings Pro also won't start, and are showing errors to that effect.
