MDM's merging feature in EP

Hi,
I want to add MDM's merging feature to the MDM ResultSet iView which is available with MDM Business packages for EP.
Is there any way I can modify the ResultSet iView or do I have to create a new iView?
Kindly help

Hi,
The MDM iViews do not currently provide a "merge" utility similar to that provided by the MDM Data Manager.

How to create mail merge(feature in word) in adobe pdf and programmatically find and replace these t

I am very new to adobe.I am required to do the following and am very confused.The scenario is as follows:
I am required to create a letter template (using adobe designer) where name and few other details will be tags(which needs to be replaced by actual values according to the particular customer later on).We can create such a feature in word using mail merge feature available there.How do we do the same in pdf??Can it be done using adobe designer 7.0???If so,how?
After I create this template,I am required to write a javascript or a VB program to access this pdf template and find and replace these tags with the actual values and generate a pdf document.Somebody told me that this is to be done using adobe document server(ADS). Can this be done??If so,how?If not what is the alternative product in adobe?
There are so many adobe products that i am totally at sea and not able to figure out which to use and how.
Please help me at the very earliest.
Thanks in advance.

Sowmya

Let me thank u for a prompt reply but I guess I still need ur help before I accomplish what I set out to do.
As per your reply I used Forms API in my vb program and it is accessing the fields but I am not able to change the property of the fields.
I created the pdf form using adobe designer 7.0 and have created a floating field which I want to populate using my code.This is invisible in the pdf template but I when I set the value for it using vb code I need to change its property to visible.
But when I try to change the "NoViewFlag" property, I get an error as follows:
Runtime error'-2147220988(80040204)
Document's Security Settings prohibit the operation being performed
Please give your suggestions.
2.Another question is how do I differentiate floating text field and ordinary text field in vb code because the type of both is displayed as text ??
Thanks again.

Sowmya
I am putting my code below for ur viewing.

Data Merge Feature in Master page in InDesign CS5

I really need some help, because I'm running out of time...
I'm trying to create a merged document by using the Data Merge Feature in InDesign CS5. Normally it works fine, but right now I'm trying to create one with a .csv file imported in de master page so I can update it later on. That should work, fine but after 16 hours I still dont have a merged document. According to InDesign we aren't even at 25%! It only 142 records spread out over 9 pages. What do I do wrong? Can anybody provide me with an answer?

Dutch, does that mean that you normally use a different kind of file as a data source other than .csv? If so, which? I tried with both .csv and .txt (tab delimited text), and both worked fine for me on a simple test. Both allowd me to update the ID file after I had updated the data source.

How long does something like this usually take for you? Is this a very complicated document when compared to the documents you usually do? You may have some document corruption, so trying the same data file on a new document might be worth a try. You might also want to try trashing your InDesign preferences also.

HT202879 does numbers for mac have a mail merge feature

Will numbers for mac offer a mail merge feature?

Nicole Lynn,
Version 2 of Numbers (iWork '09) does have Mail Merge. If your profile is correct, that's probably what you are using. The instructions for using the feature are in the Pages User Guide PDF.
If your profile is out of date and you are using iWork '13 apps, you're out of luck. But, you can always go back to Version 2 of Numbers and Version 4 of Pages.

OWB 10gR2 Merge Feature

Hi
I am trying to create a mapping which uses the merge statement in the end.
Though I just want to have a normal insert and no update.
This is possible in 10g DB wherein we can only have an update or Insert .
However, when I am trying to create the mapping using OWB 10gR2 I am forced to choose an update and insert clause... is there any way I can get around OWB 10g to just create the merge with either Only Update or Only Insert.
Thanks
Sushant

Hi
Thanks for your replies. I do know that I could use either Insert or Update in the drop down menu. However before 10gR2 We didnt have the flexibility of using either one Insert or Update.
For More Information refer to .....
http://www.oracle-developer.net/display.php?id=310
In Oracle 10g, either the INSERT or UPDATE operations are optional (you must have one, but not necessarily both, unlike in 9i). This is a critical enhancement and one which makes the MERGE statement much more flexible. In particular, this new feature could make updates with correlated sub-queries a thing of the past as MERGE is easier to code, easier to understand, more flexible, less error-prone and faster. In the following example, we'll MERGE source into target but ignore new rows by leaving out the INSERT operation. Note how much easier this is to code and read than a "double-correlated UPDATE".
Hence I wanted to try if this is possible using the Warehouse Builder 10g.
Anyways Thanks for your Time

Sushant

Is there a way to Automate or Script the Mail Merge Feature in iWorks?

Hello,
I've been trying to build a production management system slowly over the last few months, my boss is a bit of a technophobe so I've been trying as hard as i can to keep everything in familiar programs, at its core all the system has to do its take information in from Purchase Orders, this is added to a Numbers File, within that numbers file are our Open Order Book showing All orders and 2 "Merge Sheets" all new Orders are Added to the Merge Sheets then onto the Open Order Sheet, those "merge sheets" are then used as a data source for a Pages file "Job Card" (we have 2 job card files once blue one yellow but the process is the same)
Up until now I've been manually merging each time we get a new order, but this happens a lot so what I've been trying to do is Automate the procedure.
Ive created 2 Automator Apps each runs the same sequence just for the two different Job cards as follows:
Get finder Item "Job_Card_Blue/Yellow" > Open Finder Item > a "watch me do" of mail merge > Print > Close Application without saving
The Problem is the Watch me do is a bit of a clunky work around, if I could make it work without the mouse moving over the screen it wouldn't be so bad, even if I could somehow give Mail Merge a Keyboard Short Cut it would also be better.
So my questions, after a large ammount of waffling:
1) is there a way i can "see" and then edit the "watch me do" Script?
2) is there a simpler work around im not seeing?
3) is there an existing script of program I can use? (obviously i know there is Filemaker etc, if it was up to me I'd use a Database, but the owner of company is adimant i use office or easy programs, becuase it needs to be a system i can leave to him once my contract is up)
Any Help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Yes I've created an Automator Application that does the job, but the "watch me do" function that does the Mail Merge is a rather Clunkey work around, as the mouse moves all over the place, thats the part i want to remove and replace with a script, or work out a different way around it that avoids the "watch me do" function.
Is this Possible? or where/who is there i can ask to write me a script, im not a novice to scripting, but i am a novice to Applescript.

How can I send emails to a list of email addresses using mail merge feature in Microsoft Word for Mac? It would work with the power pc but not with macbook Air

I want to send an email and personalize it to several contacts. I could always do it with my old Power PC using Microsoft Office Word for Mac but cannot access my emailoption when I use the Macbook Air. Anyone have a solution??

No way for us to know for sure (without similar product/issues) but the
HP Support site suggests that with the current Mavericks OS X 10.9.x
their drivers should be available through Apple Software Updates:

However that may be limited to certain models of printers or scanners that
already had been known to be working under OS X as of that date in a
prior OS X (such as 10.8.5, 10.7.5, 10.6.8, etc) with earlier product support.

Yet a driver for ancient Leopard 10.5.x may not be suitable for Mavericks 10.9.x

How do I add a dynamic hyperlink to an image in a CRM mail Merge?

We have a mail merge template that is being used by a number of our sales reps. The sales reps each have a unique URL they use to send out to potential customers. Their unique URL is saved on their User record in MSCRM. We want to
send out marketing pieces to prospects but we need the ability to dynamically add the user's hyperlink to an image on the mail merge (ex: an image saying "Click here") and cannot find a way to do this. Is this possible?

Hi,
This is not possible using OOTB CRM Marketing mail merge features for CRM 2013. However you can use 3rd party tools like Click Dimension for this Alternatively with MDM you are now able to use more advanced design features including what
you are trying to achieve.

How Do I get data merge to work without creating duplicate pages in a single page native file?

I've called Adobe about this and they indicated it was some kind of setting that needed to be changed in InDesign, but wouldn't tell me how to do it unless I paid for an "incident pack" and talked with technical support.
Problem: I have a single page document in InDesign CS5. It's a direct-mail postcard with large high-res images and complicated graphics on it. I want to merge a list of recipients names/addresses from Excel with this single-page design. Excel document has 2,000 names in it.
I successfully create the merge using InDesign's data merge feature, but it creates a new InDesign document with 2,000 pages in it. Each page is a duplicate of my original file, but with different addresses on each page. Because of the multiple records and the high res images it has created 2,000 duplicates of - InDesign crashes. It also took about 4 hours to do the merge.
There has got to be a better way to merge data w/o it created the same page over and over again.
I can't make a pdf to solve this problem becasue I have to work with an in-house printer and they do a poor job of printing from pdf. So, I always send them native files. This printer does not have variable data software. However, if that is the fast and easy solution to this problem - I will force them to purchase it.
Any advise or solution to this problem would be appreciated. Is there a setting in InDesign that needs to change so it doesn't repeat the single page design 2,000 times and cause InDesign to crash?
Thank you.

That's exactly how Data Merge works. If it's on the page, it gets duplicated. 2000 records is a lot, so I'm not sure if the images or the sheer number is what's slowing things down.
One thing you can try is to moove everything EXCEPT the merge placeholders to a master page, then assign the [None] master to the page with the placeholder anbd do the merge. Change the master to the one with your static content after the merge. That might speed up the merge, but it won't do anything for the file being 2000 pages that each has to RIP for printing. The best way to deal with this is to find a printer who can do VDP printing and give him the template file and your data file, and let him do the merge in the print stream.

Outer-join merge of data sources

I need to join the data from our primary universe to various sets of Excel data. The universe contains the primary, core data (employees). The Excel data will contain additional dimensions and measures. The "Merge" feature works well for analyzing the measures found in the Excel file, but I need to be able to slice my data by dimensions included in the Excel file. I receive the "data not compatible" warning when I try to drop a dimension from the Excel file into a table that contains dimensions from the primary universe.
Example: The universe contains the employees' Employee ID and Country. The Excel file contains the employees' Employee ID and City. I merged the two data sets on the Employee ID. I need to see a count of employees by Country and City but Webi doesn't allow me to put Country and City into the same table because they are both dimensions and Country is sourced from the universe whereas City is sourced from the Excel file.
Does anyone have ideas on how to make this work?

Hi,
As mention by Gaurav Try this .
You have Created Merge Dimension on [Emp_ID] .
Create 2 variables both will be detail object & Associated dimension will be [Emp_Id] (Merged) .
v_Country = Q1.[Country]
v_City = Q2.[City]
now add
[Emp_Id] (Merged) , v_Country , v_City in one table .

How to get pages ver 5 mail merge to work using numbers as a data source

As a long time user of MS Word and Excel, I use the mail mail merge feature to create invoices by merging client contact info into the invoice template. At the end of Nov-2013, I changed to a new-to-me MBP-15. After purtchasing and downloading Pages, Numbers and Keynotes, I had difficulty using my Word/Excel files as a merge in Pages and Numbers. Apple support has told me that the feature no longer works in Pages/Numbers version 5 in the OS 10.9 op-sys. What a BIG disappointment. I've begun to find some work arounds, but they are a pain in the @$$.
Does anyone have any updates on this issue?
Has anyone found a simple to use work around?
Any help is appreciated.

Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5.

Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Archive/trash Pages 5 and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

Merging or branching in ABAP codes

Hi experts!
Iu2019d like to hear your opinions about how to define a landscape or the best way of working when a system has a high concurrency in the ABAP objects in terms of development.
Iu2019m working on a project in what there are small teams with 2 or 3 members each. Each team has a distinct goal and deadline, however sometimes they must use a same source code. Certain requirements (phase 1) go to production before other ones (phase 2), nevertheless by the time a source code contains both requirements.
Other big problem is with regard to merge the codes during parallel works. I sought up on the internet and I read some articles saying that SAP doesnu2019t offer a specific tool with branching and merging features. One can at least compare different versions (new and old) in the same or remote environment. Maybe a third-party tool if exist, but itu2019d be a kind of bad solution at this moment. It should look like the SPAU transaction, whose objective is to compare and guide modifications in standard codes.
http://www.g3it.com/technical/why-does-abap-not-support-branching-and-merging/
I remind Iu2019m talking about one single landscape. I wouldnu2019t like to have two or more development landscape because of diverse unwanted reasons. I guess it would create more problems than solutions.
A possible solution I found is called Feature Flag, which is known by other names too. It is a technique that shows how to maintain several distinct implementations which are controlled by a simple flag (IF clause). What are pro and cons? I donu2019t really know at all. Iu2019m still studying variety of possibilities.

http://www.infoq.com/presentations/Feature-Bits/
http://atlanta2010.leanssc.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Lean_SSC_2010_Proceedings.pdf/
We also think of using available SAP resources, such as includes and enhancement spots.
If this topic should be in another forum, please inform me the proper forum.
I will be very glad and appreciate any opinion.
Regards,
André

Jelena,
Thanks for replying to me.
In truth, there are several requirements and they are handed out to different teams simultaneously.
Really I think the solution will be Z enhancements. Before we need to define the possible points within the source code. So then every team is going to work on a specific enhancement, using its own request. As the requests are transported, the requirements will work out in productive environment. Obviously, there is variety of matters, for instance database modifications by different teams. However, I believe that every case has to be handled apart.
But Iu2019d like to interchange ideas with people who work on projects with concurrently development teams.
Regards,
André

Why is Merge into single pdf using InDesign CS3 and not CS4 ?

I'm new to this so the question may be trivial, but it beats me:
I've created some InDesign files in CS4 and want to combine them into one PDF. So I opened Acrobat 9 Pro and
navigated to "Merge files into single pdf". I chose the CS4 InDesign files to Add and clicked the Combine Files button.
BUT, this starts up InDesign CS3 and not InDesign CS4 and returns a pop-up saying "unidentified error".
Why is starting CS3 InDesign and not CS4, and what is the "unidentified" error ! ?
As background I intially installed CS3 and then updated to CS4, leaving the CS3 applications intact. When I initially
bought CS3, just before CS4 was released I may have created pdfs from InDesign as an experiment, but it is possible I have not done this
since upgrading to CS4.
Thanks for any help

Thanks Michael, I was not aware of quality issues. Actually this is not really significant for my usage this time. What I'm doing is just using ID to capture notes/images/links etc in several free format ID documents. I then planned to merge them quickly into one pdf using Acrobat. I can easily shuffle the file order around to create a handy portable pdf reference document with the Merge feature.
Doing something similar from ID seemed to me to require me to create pdfs for each ID doc and them to merge them in Acrobat. I did start to write a simple script to do this in ID, but I then realised that I wanted the ordering to vary and the ID files would likely to change. Then I found the merge and bingo, that solved it..... Well it solved it on another CS4 installation that had never seen CS3, but not on my machine which had been upgraded from CS3.
I tried looking in the registry for obvious entries that might point Acrobat to use ID CS3 rather than CS4, but couldn't spot anything. I wonder if there is something buried in there ?
Thanks again for helping
Regards.

I have a paid subscription, but am no longer able to merger multiple pdf documents into one pdf. What's up?

I have a paid subscription, but am no longer able to merger multiple pdf documents into one pdf. What's up?

Pat:
Below is a copy of an 8/7/2013 email from adobe. I prepaid a one-year subscription, and, until I recently upgraded to Windows 8, I was able to make several dozens of merged pdf documents. I seem to be no longer able to use the merge feature that I had successfully and repeated used. When I search for the merge feature I end up with a request that I pay for an upgrade monthly subscription to use the merge feature.
