Manage UME field into xml form builder show view

Hi all,
is possible to manage all UME user fields into show XMLForm?
I find some problem to add user field on show view , like phone number, city, address,...
I can only manage the following field:
username,
First name,
e-mail
Thanks in advance
Enzo Santoro

Hi Vincenzo/Enzo,
go to the Java API for UME here in SDN (AppSever/Java)and look for IUser or so... . The names used for the different user fields are shown (just see the get methods and compare what you have for firstname, lastname, email....)
Hope that helps,
Kai

XML Form Builder Show Form

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement in XML Forms, When I click a particular news item in Renderlist Form, I need to display the Show Form in the same window without opening a new window. If it is possible, please guide me, How do I do that? And also, can I specify the size of the Show Form?
Regards,
Venkatesh. K

Hi Venkatesh.
To realsize your ideas you have to build your own XSL or to customize the SAP generated XSL files. We build own XSL files.
1) It is possible to present the Show Form in the same window.
Go to the JAVA SCRIPT SECTION. It is mostly at page bottom. The function open_url_with_params(url,params) is used to open the Show form. In this function window.open(url,'_blank',params) is called. Replace _blank to desired value, e.g. _self.
2) If the Show Form opens in a new window it is possible to specify the size and position of this window.
To realize this go to the link references Show form (open_url_with_params). The function is called with the url and some parameters, e.g. toolbar=no, ... . Add the params width, height, top and left here.

Disable field on XML Form Builder

Hi!
I can disable a field in a XML form . For example, the date of creation and the SAP user, so that the user does not change this information. Thank you very much!

Hi David,
Do not use "date of creation" and "SAP user" fields in "Edit" form. You don't need to add this fields to "Edit" page of your xml forms since they are available as Properties.
In the Project Browser go to
Expand Properties -> System item and you can see
"Created By" -> for Sap User and
"Created" -> for date
You can use lots of variables here in your RenderListItem and Show views.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Abdul.

Missing permissions to delete temporary files in xml forms builder

Hi,
we have the following problem:
A user with role content manager is using the xml forms builder. Every time, he is saving or generating a project, a error message comes up, telling him, that some files *.xml.xlb.___save_file could not be deleted. Those are temporary files which are created during editing (I guess?!).
As recommended by SAP, the content manager only has read/write permission on the used KM-folder. If the user has the role (NOT group!) Administrator, everything works just fine. The same is true when the permissions are added manually. Is this the only way to solve the problem or am I missing some configuration?
Help appreciated.
Best regards,
Hauke Siehlmann

Dear Hauke,
Hope you found a solution in the meantime for this permission issue. Hence I just give a very general comment on this. Generally such content admins are supposed to be System Principals in CM by role assignment.
By this concept and default delivery on this it is assured that users having access to administrative iViews by role assignment does also have relevant permissions. See http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/19/56f28fbd4e11d5993b00508b6b8b11/frameset.htm.
Whenever having custom specific roles this System Principal concept should be part of the design.
Best Regards, Peter

XML Forms Builder: Sorting news based on a date field in a XML form

Hi Experts
I have a requirement and I am stuck up in finding a solution. I have a XML form and this has been mapped to a folder in KM. It publishes news. In the collection renderer settings there is an option to sort the news ascending or descending based on created/modified criteria.
The requirement is to sort the news based on a date field in XML form. Can you experts help me in getting the solution for same?
The users who post the news in our portal needs the information to be sorted based on a date field shown.
Thank you
Best regards

Error writing output with iview for xml form builder

Hi,
I created a Xml Form Builder's project in which I developed an "Edit" and "ListEdit" sheet.
I also created an iview for theese in which the code link is:"com.sap.km.cm.xmlform",and the field for Style Sheet for List and for single item are set up correctly,but when I tried the preview the following error message happened:
com.inqmy.lib.xsl.xslt.XSLOutputException: Error writing output. -> org.w3c.dom.DOMException: Root Element is already present, cannot be appended as a child.
could someone help me?
thank's a lot!

Hi,
Now I'm confused,what do you mean with create new data? Are users editing existing documents
(as if they go to a document example.xml > edit) or they are creating new documents (as if they go
on folder > new > forms)?
The problem is, in both cases a user would need read/write permissions.
The normal flow content (data) is created in KM is as follows:
1. user is assigned to a role
2. role contains KM Navigation iView
3. KM Navigation iView executes com.sap.km.cm.navigation component
4. user chooses New > Form UI command (edit_xml_forms)
5. edit_xml_forms UI command executes its code (com.sapportals.wcm.rendering.uicommand.cm.UIXMLFormsCreateCommand) and open xml edit for the user
6. user fill the form and click Save, form is created into folder
For what I understood so far, your requirement basically asks you to go directly to step 5, it is
possible to pass a URL that goes directly to step 5, the UI command button, but if you do that
you won't have a context, so chances that it will work are slim, since a context is required to
fill the parameters asked by the app (like folder, user, permissions, etc). Even though, in some cases you can
still pass the parameters via post in the URL but you must know which service/parameters the
app asks for it, also a URL is static...
That was the create scenario, I think it's more cons than pros, users would still be
able to bypass the URL iView created for that, I'd suggest evaluating again if it's really
a problem having users access cm to manage data
kind regards,
Rafael

Creating radio buttons in XML Forms Builder

Hi everyone,
I can't seem to find any instructions on how to create Radio Buttons in XML Forms builder, anyone has a link or instruction on how to?
Thanks,
Samer

Hi Samer,
So taking the example for the slides, you need first to create a new child under DataModel for the DataSchema. You can name it "Gender".
Click on the Radio Button in the Toolbar and drag "Gender" from the left hand site into the Edit Form.
It should have already a first radio button and in the box on the bottum right you should see the reference in the Schema Reference field (/DataShema/DataModel/Gender).
You can now drag a second button from the toolbar and place it behind the first one. Make sure you add the same value in the Schema Reference field.
On the Show form or RenderListItem you need a Control Selector as mentioned on slide 18. You can just use right mouse click -> Add. Go on the new item on the right hand side, and click on "Add Multiple Labels". You can choose now how many radio buttons you have, here 2.
In our example enter in one Label "Condition" = "true" and "Label" = "Male" and in the other "Condition" = "false" and "Label" = "Female".
Finally, make sure that the Control Selector has the Schema Reference also as defined above (/DataShema/DataModel/Gender).
Hope this helps,
Robert

I want to design a News like the *LInklist* by XML Form Builder

Hello:
   Everyone!
   Now I have another problem about XML Form Builder
   I want to design a News like the LInklist by XML Form Builder
   I want the result,For Example
SAP News
       1news1
       2news2
       3news3
who can give me some adviseon about how to disign the Edit, Show and Renderlistitem in XML
Thanks a lot
Hope your help!

Hi,
In XML Form
1) Edit form is used for designing the user interface.
2) Show form is used for displaying the xml form to the end user
3) RenderListItem is used for rendering the xml form into a small description like 1News1, 2news2 etc..
    Here you need to display only the heading of the xml form
After you create the xml form
Create Layout set where you need to give the proerties like xml renderer form , no of items to display etc...
Thanks&Regards,
Raghu

Xml Form Builder HTML Editor

Hi All,
In my xml form builder application, i have to insert an image inside the UI "HTML Editor". But there is no option called as "insert image from km" into the HTML Editor? How can i have that option called "Insert Image From KM" ?
I tried "configuration of the HTML editor" in
Knowledge Management  Content Management  Utilities  Editing  HTML Editing.
I enabled the option "Allow Images". Then too it is not reflecting in HTML Editor UI.
What else can be done for getting that property on HTML Editor UI?
Thanx and Regards,
Divya

Hi,
My understanding is that the standard HTML editor control from SAP is quite limited. You can copy and paste an image into it (but the image has to already be in KM) - it has no nice control for selecting or positioning the image....
Some options:
1. There are options like TinyMCE which I belive can be used in place of the standard HTML editor control.
2. If the structure of the content on you page is fixed then you could add images into the form as images that the user would provide links for - but this is not as free form as you would maybe like.
Hope this helps,
Simon

How to reference a file with the XML Forms Builder?

Hello,
I've created a form at the XML Form builder (I am using NW 04). This enables the users to create new topic.
I've created at at the "Edit" form an option to upload a file along with the new topic. The file is being saved in a subfolder of the topics main folder.
My question is how to create a link to the specific file that has been uploaded with it's specific topic at the "Show" Form? Note that the subfolder contains files of many topics, I want to link to this specific file uploaded with it's relevant topic when created. How do I do that?

Hi Roy,
> I've created at the "Edit" form an option
> to upload a file along with the new topic.
What I expect that you have done is to add a browse functionality which browses within KM with the possibility to upload an image into KM?! As done within SAP Demo News?!
If that's the way, just compare the SAP Demo News: Create /DataSchema/News/image and map it to the browser, whereas in the show form part you'll map it to an image.
If I didn't understand you right and the issue is still open, please report...
Hope it helps

After downgrade to Java 1.4 I can not start the Form Builder, that means, after clicking on "Form Builder" in the Portal, a pop-up opens, but the XML Form Builder does not load.
