Lookup values to edit data

Hi. Is it possible to have a lookup list on the table records grid for a column that happens to be a foreign key to another table? Say, I want to have a departments lookup list for the departments column in the employees table.
Thanks.

I suspect this should be a new feature request, you can add this to the exchange:
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=42626:46:1948894399635369::NO:::
I also think this could be a little tricky to develop and may have some serious impact on performance, so i do not expect the development team to be eager to work on this.

Group by Clause displaying all lookup values

Hello Friends
I've a simple table with columns namely Date, Reason, Product and Count and the sample data is displayed below.
==========================
Date Reason Product Count
==========================
06/08/2012 Reason1 Home 1
07/08/2012 Reason2 Motor 1
08/08/2012 Reason1 Home 1
09/08/2012 Reason3 Home 2
10/08/2012 Reason1 Home 1
06/08/2012 Reason5 Home 1
===========================
In total I've 5 reason lookup values from Reason1 through to Reason5, but the above table consists of few of them.
I would like to diplay result per day and take an example of 6th August, I want to display below result, i.e. display all 5 reason looksup and assign zero count if there are no records for that day.
=====================================
DATE REASON HOME_COUNT MOTOR_COUNT
=====================================
06/08/2012 Reason1 1 0
06/08/2012 Reason2 0 1
06/08/2012 Reason3 0 0
06/08/2012 Reason4 0 0
06/08/2012 Reason5 1 0
=====================================
If we write group by clause, missing reasons like Reason3 and Reason4 will not be displayed in the result set.
And I've tried to write multiple UNION ALL queries to get the above result which works fine, but if there 100 lookup values, I do not want to write 100 Union queries.
Please let me know if you have any analytical functions to display the end results?
Thanks
Murali.

If you followed relational design, you have reason lookup table. If you do not have it you should create one. Also, date is reserved word and count is a keyword, so do not use them as column names. Then use outer join:
SQL> create table tbl as
2 select to_date('06/08/2012','dd/mm/yyyy') dt,'Reason1' reason,'Home' product,1 qty from dual union all
3 select to_date('07/08/2012','dd/mm/yyyy'),'Reason2','Motor',1 from dual union all
4 select to_date('08/08/2012','dd/mm/yyyy'),'Reason1','Home',1 from dual union all
5 select to_date('09/08/2012','dd/mm/yyyy'),'Reason3','Home',2 from dual union all
6 select to_date('10/08/2012','dd/mm/yyyy'),'Reason1','Home',1 from dual union all

Is it possible to manually edit data in EDQ?

Hello - I'm new to EDQ.
Trying to figure out if, after running rules/processes in EDQ, I can manually edit/alter data in the EDQ tool.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi,
Editing data is very much a last resort and is not the way that we expect remediation to work in EDQ.
Normally Case Management is set up and configured in such a way to allow data stewards to select specific, targeted, remediation actions. The actions are normally different depending on the type of exception, and are actions that are already 'known' to EDQ and built-in to the configuration of the data cleansing processes.
For example, in addition to the ability to mark an exception as ‘To be fixed at source’, with the data re-checked the next time it comes through, it is possible to capture remediative choices such as:
For a Boolean field, the option to select the correct value as one of the states
For a field that should conform to a fixed list, the option to select a valid value from a list of template comments
For a URL field with an invalid value, the option to supply the correct value as a comment
For a Telephone Number field that is too long, the option to tell EDQ to abbreviate the field (remove whitespace etc.) or to truncate the field
…and many more
This normally uses reception rules and conditional transitions in Case Management to offer targeted remediations depending on the nature of the exception.
The entered fixes are added in Case Management and then pulled back into EDQ (via the System Information Data Store, and appropriate lookups) so that they can be applied to records as remediations before the records are re-checked.
So although the experience is not ‘editing the data’, it is in fact more guided to ensure that data stewards select a correct remediation for a specific data issue.
In all cases, if the fix is confirmed and the alert is ‘cleared’, the workflow is normally configured such that the state of the alert changes from ‘Fix Pending’ to ‘Fix Confirmed’, and if the fix is not confirmed (for example an entered URL is still invalid, or a phone number still too long after abbreviation), the alert is automatically reopened.
All of this is driven by configuration of Case Management and EDQ. It can be a little tricky to set this up, but it is perfectly possible to do, and we have customers doing exactly this kind of thing with their Data Stewards today.
Regards,
Mike

Batch wise stock report with qty and value as on date

is there any report so that we can see the stock qty with value as on date,
i have tried mb5b but it is showing only qty and batch combination not qty value and batch combination
plz suggest me, it is very urgent.
nitin

MBEWH is the valuation history, this is only updated with the first movement after a period closure. And the period is a month.
There is no table in SAP that holds the stock information on daily basis.
You have to develope this yourself. Easiest method by copying a table like MBEW and MARD daily to a Z-Table.
A stock situation at a certain date can be calculated with MB5B.

Can not edit data labels in old graph chart objects using Word 2010

In Word 2010, Insert object "Microsoft Graph Chart", go to Chart Options and check an item in Data labels, such as "Series Name", "Category Name" or "Value". Click OK, then double-click on a data label to edit its
settings, or right-click on a data label and select "Format Data Labels..."
This makes Word to crash. The only way I can get out of it is by using the Task Manager to kill Word.
This happens in Windows 7 and Windows 8. This does NOT not happen in Word 2007 nor Word 2013, so it seems specific to Word 2010. All our clients have the same problem, this does not seem related to a specific workstation configuration.
The Microsoft Graph Chart are the old charts used within .doc files. I have an application still generating those types of files and need to edit data label settings manually before processing the files with my application.
Also note that anytime you edit a .doc file in Word 2010 and you see "Compatibility Mode" in the title bar, the Insert / Chart option from the ribbon inserts an old type chart (same as if you use Insert / Object / Microsoft Graph Chart), not the
new Word 2010 charts. You then have the same problem editing the data labels.
The underlying Activex seems to be the Chart.Exe file, the one I have installed is 14.0.7012.1000. You can see the version by double-clicking the chart and then look in the Help / About menu.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

As this is a configuration issue and not a programming issue I' moving your question to a more appropriate forum where you're more likely to find assistance.

Here's how to do ALV (OO) with dynamic fcat, int table and editable data

Hi everybody
Here's a more useful approach to ALV grid with OO using dynamic table, data NOT from DDIC, dynamic FCAT and how to get changed lines from the grid when ENTER key is pressed.
It's really not too dificult but I think this is more useful than the ever present SFLIGHT methods from the demos.
This also defines a subclass of cl_gui_alv_grid so you can access the protected attributes / methods of that class.
You don't need to add the class via SE24 -- done fron this ABAP.
When you run it click Edit for the first time.
After editing data press ENTER and the break point should bring you into the relevant method.
Code developed on NW2004S trial version but also works on rel 6.40 on a "Real" system.
The code should work without any changes on any system >=6.40.
All you need to do is to create a blank screen 100 via SE51 with a custom container on it called CCONTAINER1.
The rest of the code can just be uploaded into your system using the SE38 upload facility.
When running the program click on the EDIT button to enable the edit functionality of the grid.
Change your data and when you press ENTER you should get the break-point where you can see the original table and changed rows.
This program is actually quite general as it covers Dynamic tables, building a dynamic fcat where your table fields are NOT in the DDIC, intercepting the ENTER key via using an event, and accessing the protected attributes of the cl_gui_alv_grid by defining a subclass of this class in the abap.
I've seen various questions relating to all these functions but none in my view ever answers the questions in a simple manner. I hope this simple program will answer all these and show how using OO ALV is actually quite easy and people shouldn't be scared of using OO.
Have fun and award points if useful.
Cheers
Jimbo.

Hi there
IE7 doesn't give me the add new page option and I get 404 error when trying to access the "How to contribute" section.
I'll load up Firefox later (this browser usually works when IE7 doesn't always work properly).
I'll copy the stuff to the wiki when I've got the browser sorted out.

How to get lookup value for a lookup_type and pass as a parameter in OAF

Hi,
I have requirement wherein I have to enable the "Add Attachment" Button only for a particular deliverable name.
Steps I followed
1) I have extended the corresponding Controller class.
2) Sting str1="XYZ";
3) Getting the attachment table bean and the deliverable name thru Data Mappings as Attachment is the built-in funtionality in OAF.
4)Checking if the deliverable name whether it is equal to str1 or not
Case1: If the deliverable name is not equal to str1 then I am placing the insertallowed as BOOLEAN.FALSE
Case2:If not it will be enabled.
5)The functionality as per the requirement is working fine.
6)Here for str1 I have hardcoded the value initially but I need to take up the value from a lookup created for this value because may be in future if for more than one value the "Add Attachment" Button has to enabled they it will be easy to add in the look up only. No need to change the controller class.
7) So please let me know the steps in getting the value from a lookup and have to pass the lookup values (Here str1--"XYZ","ABC","DEF") into the extended Controller Class.
Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
Ramya

Ramya,

No need to change the controller class.For this u need to iterate through the lookup values.
Share ur existing Controller Code.

Workflow Activity "Lookup Value" returns An error occured while enumerating the filter using [//WorkflowData/customvalue]

I want to generate an Accountname using EmployeeID, FirstName and LastName via a workflow.
I'm using the Granfeldt Workflow Activity Library (https://fimactivitylibrary.codeplex.com/)
I'm using the FIM Powershell Workflow Activity (https://fimpowershellwf.codeplex.com/)
Steps:
Passing the EmployeeID, FirstName and LastName to the powershell Activity, generating a logonid based on logic.
Add-PSSnapin FIMAutomation
$EmployeeID = $fimwf.WorkflowDictionary.EmployeeID
$Forename = $fimwf.WorkflowDictionary.Firstname
$Lastname = $fimwf.WorkflowDictionary.Lastname
'logic creating a custom logonid here
==> This works
Returning data back to the workflow via that powershell script:
$fimwf.WorkflowDictionary.Add('NewAccountName',$newlogonid)
==> This works
Using Lookup Value Activity to read the Workflow data and update the [//Target/AccountName] fails.
This gives an error:
An error occurred while enumerating the filter 'string' .
(where string is the actual generated userid that I've got back from the powershell script. Example dab2563)
I tried with only [//WorkflowData], then this gives the error:
Index was outside the bounds of the array.
Any hints to solve this?
Kind regards,
David

The Lookup Activity is for looking up an object in the FIM Service. Seems like thats not what you're trying to accomplish.
For updating the target of the workflow, just use the built-in Function Evaluator. The Lookup WF was not built for that and it is failing because you have not specified a valid XPAth lookup filter, such as /Person[AccountName='BillG']

How to export the text edit data to excel file without splitting the data in excel file?

how to export the text edit data to excel file without splitting the data in excel file?
I have a requirement in SAP HR where in the appraiser can add comments in the area given and can export that to excel file. Currently the file is getting exported but the comments getting split into deifferent rows.
I want the entire comment to be fit in one row.
Please help.
Thank you

Hi,
if your text edit value is stored in 'lv_string' variable.
then before exporting the value to excel you have to remove CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE
that is '#' from the variable lv_string.
for that use code some thing like this.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE in lv_string WITH space.
I think this will do the trick.

Update age group picklist based on value entered in date of birth

Hi Gurus,
Have a requirement where in user would enter the date of birth on a contact record and would like to populate another custom field called age group at the time of creating a new record.
The condition is some what like
Age
1 – 20 Teens
21-40 Young Adults
41-60 Adults
60 – 100 Seniors
I have tried using the age field but problem is that age is populated only when the record is saved.
Update the age group via workflow works fine but the saved record has to be modified before triggering the workflow. we would like to avoid the additional step of modifying the record
Is there any option to calculate age based on the value entered for date of birth - something like DOB Year - current year before saving a record or via post default without using workflows.
Thanks in advance,
Arun

Hi
The answer is yes, using the post default functionlaity.
take a look in the folowign example:
IIf(ToChar(Timestamp(),'DD/MM/YYYY')- [<DateofBirth>] < 20,'20','30')
You will need to make something like that, but replace the '30' with another IIf expression, and so on for the next interval.
note that date of birth should be between suqare brackets [ ] (it is shown here with underline for some reason...)
Good luck
Guy

Looking for a Web Interface for Editing Data in an Oracle 10g Database

Greetings all!
My organization is implementing Oracle 10g Release 2 Enterprise version. We have an employee who will need to edit data in the database which will hold staff phone numbers, email addresses, and other contact information. This employee will never need to administer the database or develop tables, queries, etc. They will only need to add and remove rows of data and edit text values stored in a database table.
Does Oracle 10g have a built-in, browser-based tool that can be used to edit data in a table via a friendly user interface? If no, can you please recommend an easy to use tool for editing data in an Oracle database?
Thanks for any help you can provide!
Rachel

Justin,
Thanks very much for the tip!
Do you know if Oracle 10g has any kind of built-in tool for editing data? I have heard of "The Vault", but that appears to be a tool for administering database users, reports, etc. I am looking for some kind of tool that shows the data in a grid layout (like Microsoft Excel) and allows someone to edit and save data in that grid. A web-based tool would be best, but a desktop tool (especially if it's already part of Oracle 10g) would also be good.
Thanks again,
Rachel

How to change the value of project data in the BPM instance?

Hi Everybody,
I have a situation that after the bpm instance was created. We found that one of the project data/variable contains the incorrection information. Is it a way we can change the value of that project data/variable? I checked the BPM workspace, as administrator, there are not function for it and we can't stop/withdraw the instance. Can we change the MDS database for it? Please advise. It is so important for us that will stop us to move on of our project.
Thanks

As per my knowledge we can not change the value of BPM project variables from outside BPM. If you look at PAPI API also you will find methods to get values from BPM but not to set to BPM.
If this is daily issue for your application then change your design to add a Edit Data Activity (Screen) and then use Grab functionality to get the control to this Edit Data Activity to change the required data.
Else if it is an issue with the only one instance then it is better to Abort this instance and re-create the instance with correct data. Changing value in the MDS database is not encouraged.
Hope this helps.

Lookup value not getting populated...

I am using following xml code (copy.asmx > method CopyIntoItems). Per Microsoft
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/websvccopy.copy.copyintoitems(v=office.14).aspx I should be able to update lookup fields value as well because Lookup list is on the same subsite and both source and target libraries are on the same sub-site as well.
Any idea? Item gets copies and all the columns get populated except the lookup column. I verified that the ID and value matches for the lookup value.
