MDM Syndication - Is it possible to split a text field?

I am trying to find a way to manage multilingual R/3 Purchase Order Text in MDM. The problem I am having is that we want to maintain this as one field in MDM, which the only feasible option appears to be a Text Large field. Text fields are too short now that they are only 333 characters, Lookups are not involved so this cannot be a multivalued Text field, Text Blocks don't seem to work for this, and Qualified Lookups don't appear to handle the multi-lingual aspect.
The problem is, somehow this one large text field needs to be broken down when sent back to R/3, as R/3 can only handle 133 characters per line. As far as I can tell, there is no way to do this.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!

If I have understood your probelm correctly, then I think you want to import the Multilingual data in MDM. You can easily do that by Pivoting the source and then Importing the MUltilingual data into MDM.
Then in the Syndicator, you can split the Multilingual Fields BY Language BY Value, (which is a feature present in the Syndicator)into Various fields, which you can indivually map it to the different destination fields. For this, you must have multiple fields in your Destination side so that you can map them individually with the Splitted fields.
Please refer below to get info on the above mentioned feature:

I think this what is what your requirement is. For refrence , kindly go through the link below, which will guide you to import the Multilingual Data and then Syndicate the file in .CSV format.

Is it possible to have editable text field in interactive report?

Is it possible to have editable text field in interactive report?
Thanks,
Dip

Hi,
I followed your suggestion and defined an IR with apex_item.text columns and it works fine. Now however I face a new problem when I run the page and use the standard Search Bar:
- Click on Actions/Filter
- Select a column, for example the employee name.
- Open the Expression field LOV: I correctly see the different names.
- When I select one of the names, in the Expression field, instead of the name, I see:
"<input type="text" name="f03" size="20" maxlength="2000" value="Eugene" />"
Horrible!!!!!!
Is there a way to see the name and not that expression? The same thing get downloaded, so it´s really annoying.
Thank you very much in advance for your help!!!

Splitting a text field in columns

Hello !
I want to divide a text field in two columns (like articles in newspaper). Is it possible ? How ?
Regards,
Lucian

Lucian,
my idea is to get the text out of the CLOB field (in my ex. column c in table t0)line by line(where you have chr(10)-new_line character) and load it into a VARCHAR2 field(v) in another table t1.
Then, in your report you can manipulate v the way you want. There you can concatenate the records again with chr(10) if you want.
To get the columns as in newspaper I would suggest to decide how many lines you want in a "column" and based on that create a repeating frame with print direction "Across" that contains one text field having the source your column.
I know it sounds a little complicated but take it step by step.
Here is the code I've tried:
create table t0 (c clob); -- you already have this
insert into t0 values ('abcd'||chr(10)||'efgh');
insert into t0 values ('ijklmn');
select * from t0;
create table t1 (v varchar2(2000));
declare
offset integer;
buffer varchar2(2000);
buflen integer ;
loblen number;
pos number;
str varchar2(2000);
buff varchar2(2000);
begin
for i in (select c from t0) loop
loblen := dbms_lob.getlength(i.c);
offset :=1;
dbms_lob.read(i.c, loblen, offset, buffer);
str := buffer;
loop
pos := instr(str,chr(10));
if pos = 0 or length(str)< 2 then
 insert into t1 values (str);
exit;
else
 buff := substr(str,1,pos-1);
 insert into t1 values (buff);
 str := substr(str,pos+1);
end if;
end loop;
end loop;
end;
I hope this will help you.

Is it possible to insert a text field over an image?

I am creating a web form, and I would like to insert a text field over an image - basically, the person completely the form will be able to see how the text she write will look on the image. Is this possible in FormsCentral? Or is there a work around?

This is something that is not supported.

Is it possible to insert a text field in formatted text?

I am attempting to create a standardized letter that will allow my secretary add names, addresses, etc., without having to re-format the letter every time. Is this possible to do in FormsCentral or should I be using a different program? Thanks!

HI!,
I think you should separate programming for AS3 and for FLEX,
this is beacuse they both use different class packages. If you want
your classes to be FLEX compatible you need to extend them from
Flex Objects and not from AS3 Objects.
In sum, if you want your class to be processed by let's say
the application object then you need to extend it from
mx.core.UIObject.
This is because there are lots of methods that FLEX uses to
place your class on the screen that are not used by normal AS3
applications.

Possible to automatically select text field data on enter

I have been trolling this forum for a couple weeks and have figured out everything on my form except this issue.
I would like my form to automatically select the "data" that is in a text or numeric field when the field is entered.
For example: If I open a form that has been filled out previously I would like each field's data to be selected when I enter the field either by tab or clicking on the field. This way I can overwrite the current data much easier without having to double click to "select all" or backspace to delete the current field. It is possible that the data should stay the same so I dont want the data to be deleted on enter just "selected"
Thanks for your help,
Joe

Hi Joe, When using the keyboard and tabbing to a field all the fields contents are selected, but this doesn't happen when using the mouse and clicking into a field. Have a look at this sample which tries make the mouse behave the same as the keyboard http://adobelivecycledesignercookbookbybr001.blogspot.com.au/2013/05/on-click-select-all-t ext-in-form-field.html.

Splitting of text fields when using multiple fonts within a text field and exporting it to XFL.

Hi All,
I have been trying out InDesign and exported files to XFL for use in Flash. If I use a single font for a text box then everything looks fine in flash, but if I use multiple fonts for the same text box its split into multiple text boxes. For making this more clear I have attached an image.
Any help to resolve this!!!

Paragraph styles are tied to the paragraph, not the page.
You don't say which version you are using, but here's something you could try in CS3 or CS4. Set up a baseline grid in the preferences to match the main pages. The spacing should match the leading of the body text. Make a special paragraph style (you can base it on the body text style) that you will apply to text onthe chapter start page, and as part of that style set it to align to baseline grid. Now for the trick. Select the text frame onthe start page and define a custom baseline grid with the spacing you want. Save it as an object style, too, while you're at it. The strating text should align to the custom grid on the start page and the documetn grid on the next page.

Possible to have a text field display current path of the pdf file?

Would it be possible to display the current (windows) path of the pdf file in the page footer? Something we do in Word & AutoCAD... is it possible & how in Livecycle?
thanks

You can get the path of the current doc by using the command:
event.target.path
The filename can be retrieved by using:
event.target.filename
You can set these in a field on the master page so that it will appear as you want at bottom of every page.

Is it possible to have a text field have both auto font resizing and rich text format?

I am trying to make a field so I can bold or italicize within, but still have the capability to add as much text as I want with the font size getting small so that it all fits in the field. It seems I can have the auto resize OR the Rich Text, but not both. Is there a way around this?
Thank you.

You can't? Just to give you some context, I work as a graphic designer, I'm creating for the first time an iBook for a client and I have quite a few examples already.
A couple of vague examples:
- Imagine a diagonal animation from the bottom left corner to the top right corner of the page. I could do this with keynote or html, for example. Now imagine you want some text floating at the top left and bottom right corner.
I wont get into details, but the fact the animation is "cutting" through the text is very much relevant to the context.
- A page with a bold white title, a strong photographic lowkey background and some kind of interaction of top of it.
- A page with a keynote widget occupying almost the entire area, and a title in text format (that would superpose with they keynote but not with its graphics)
- etc etc
These are all impossible scenarios.
The actual interaction with text/images and interactive elements is nonexistent.
But I understand now that the interactive bits of the book must be separated from the other content - its context -which is a shame. And I understand it's not a bug, from what you say. The iBA interface shows the book like a PFD export, in a way, as well as the thumbnails at the Table of Contents, were all the text is visible. The actual pages have a different behaviour.
Thank you very much for the fast feedback. I will use the 'Provide iBooks Author Feedback' menu, as suggested.

How to split header text in table view to 2 lines?

Hello,
I have a table view that has many fields. There are fields with long header text.
Is it possible to split the text and have it on 2 lines?
Foe exsamle: instead of 'ORDER NUMBER' ---> ORDER
NUMBER
Thanks,
Sara

Hello Sara,
You can do that using line feed.
Implement the following code.
data: lv_constant type string value 'CRM ORDER'.
data: lv_constant1 type string.
data: lv_constant1 type string.
split lv_constant at ' ' into lv_constant1 lv_constant2.
CLASS cl_abap_char_utilities DEFINITION LOAD.
lv_linefeed = CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF.
clear lv_constant.
concatenate lv_constant1 lv_linefeed lv_constant2 into lv_constant.
I hope this works.
Thanks

Is it possible to have two rows of text fields per entry in a tabular form?

Hi,
I'm constructing a tabular form with several text fields for each entry, and I have just been advised we need twice as many text fields now as the requirements have changed.
Anyway I am running out of real estate on the page without having to use horizontal scroll bars, and am wondering if it is possible to arrange the text fields into two rows in the tabular form for data entry. I have successfully done this for display as text fields, but not sure if it can be done in this instance.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is it possible to show/hide a result text field only if another Text field is visible and has content?

Hi
Please could someone tell me if it is possible to make a text field visible only if another text field is visible and has content?
I have this which works for the content part, but sometimes the field is hidden, so the script must not apply.
var v1 = getField("Text1").value;
event.target.display = v1 !== "" ?
display.visible : display.hidden;
What I need is something along the lines of:
var v1 = getField("Text1").value;
event.target.display = (v1 !== "" && v1!=="Hidden") ?
display.visible : display.hidden;
Thanks for any advise.

Thanks for the hints which led me to the right solution. I created a query to check if the trigger for the visibility was there or not, and this works. The script I have used is:
var v1 = getField("Text1").value;
var v2 = getField("Checkbox").value;
var v3 = getField("Text2").value;
event.target.display = (v1=="" || v3=="" && v2=="On" ) ?
display.visible : display.hidden;

Syndicator Server: possible to split the export file in multiple file?

Hello,
is it possible to split the export files into multiple files e. g. at 5000 records?
Perhaps there is a possibility in the mdss.ini? Or a setting in the mapping?
Thank your for your responses!
Melanie

Hi Melanie,
- If you are syndicating in the Xml format you have the option to syndicate one xml for every record. or multiple records one xml.
For this you have to make a simple setting in the Syndicator-> Map properties->XML file output->(multiple files/single file)
Other way around is:
- If you are syndiacting in any other format say text then the output file goes as one file for all records present in the MDM repository, for this you can use the search options.
- Create a search on some field value which will select a set of records from the lot.
- Then you can syndicate only those records which satisfies the search criteria.
- In this way it is possible to syndicate in parts
Hope It Helped,
Kindly Reward Points if found useful
Thanks & Regards

MDM Syndication selection option restrictions

Hi all,
In the MDM Syndicator is it possible to only syndicate certain details of the header record for a header and detail hierarchy structure?
For our Scenario, GL Account has the hierarchy as a Single Chart of Accounts assigned to multiple Company Code records.
· GL Account Master Record
· Chart of Account Details (SKA1 - Header)
 o Company Code Details (SKB1 - Detail)
In the repository we have SKA1 as the Main table and SKB1 as a sub table within SKA1. While the content is imported it comes in as 1 Record with multiple Company code level details. Is there anyway to restrict the selection for syndication for a given SKA1 - Header and get only the selected SKB1 - Details syndicated?
For example if for Chart of Account has 5 company codes A, B, C, D and E. Can we restrict the syndication of the of the record with selected company code details only (Example B and D - without the details for A, B, C being syndicated).
I appreciate the time.
Thanks,
-Raj.

Hi Raj
Here I do have some suggestions regarding your request, correct me if i am wrong, basically you are looking to syndicate the records by applying the filter row wise or column wise.
Row wise : Required all the field but search criteria as one or two fields ( for example filtering based on COA and Company code).
Column wise : Required only few fields to be syndicate, either row wise filter applied or not.
Hope I understood your question.
Solution:
Row wise : Use search parameter tab, search for particular COA and Company code and save the search for future purpose [from MENu SEARCH->SAVE SEARCH].
Column wise : Create Destination items for the fields which u want to syndicate and try to map those fields wt Original source items and try to syndicate the same.
Hope I have covered the point what you expected.
thanks
Alexander
P.S. Kindly reward the points, i found helpful.
