Multiplatform use and import:file

Hi All,
We are in the process of implementing bi publisher standalone running on linux and weblogic 9.2. I ran into a issue with developing reports on intel and running them on linux. The issue I'm seeing is that when I use subtemplates in a report "import: file" requires a path to the subtemplates in order to pull in the information. This works fine using a path that includes the root path but when I put in a relative path or url it errors. I was hoping that on generation of the FOTemplate the paths to the subtemplates weren't need but the information was pulled in. It seems that it still pulls the information at runtime from the subtemplates. If anyone has seen a away around this I'd would be forever greatful.
thanks,
Matt

Hi Tim,
Thanks for the response. I did find a away around this by making sure the network path is accessable in the same way ie \\networkdirectory\template.rtf in both unix an intel, and if I use //networkdirectory/template.rtf in the template to call the subtemplate it will work. So, the full call would be <?import:file:////networkdirectory/template.rtf?> I not sure what the overhead is to get these files from the network versus embedding them in the generated template but it may be something oracle may want to consider to remove the dependency of these files in the future( after initial generation).
thanks again,
Matt

  • Importing multiple files using the Import File menu.

    For some reason I am never able to add more the 5 mp3 files using the Import File menu. All of my files are located on the NAS device and if I select the Import Folder menu all the files in the folder will be imported. However, time after time I add more files to the same folder and then need to import just the new files to iTunes. For that I am using the Import File menu. If select more then 5 files, only 5 files will be imported. Some times I have 100 new files that I want to add, and moving 5 files a time is time consuming and painful. I try opening the folder, selecting all files and dropping them into iTunes, but that did not work. Is there a way to import more than 5 files at a time, or iTunes is not capable doing that?

    I am often surprised how many ways there are to add songs to iTunes. Selecting a number in the open file dialog must have a maximum string length for the file names. I bet that the path and file name are long on those songs and that is why you can only load 5 at a time from your NAS. What I have had luck with and is very easy is to select a group of songs and right click and "play" them. My iTunes is set to import and organize on play. The first song starts playing and they all load. I routinely do this with entire albums without problem.

  • Seconday Cost element Category Uses and Importance.

    Hi ,
    Can any one explain me the seconday cost element uses and importance in cost accounting ?
    Especially for the Cost element categories
    21-Internal setellment.
    42-Assesment.
    43.Internal Activity allocation.
    32-Order/Project result analysis.
    when to use which cost element Category and examples.
    I understand in the Cost sheet for the Overhead Calculation we use Seconday CE category 41.
    But in the Allocation structure at the time of giving the Cost elements, i will get confused to assign the CE's.
    This will be the great help.

    Hi Prad,
    21-Internal setellment - This category of cost element is used to settle the costs collected in a cost object to another cost object within Controlling.  You cannot settle to FI or any toher Module using this category of Cost Element
    42-Assesment
    Assessment is a type of allocation of costs from one cost object to another cost object say from one cost center to another cost center.
    In case of Distribution, the cost gets allocated using the origical cost elements. hence the origin of the cost will never be lost
    But in case of assessment, you need to allocate the costs using a seperate cost element with category 42.  In this case, the cumulative cost collected is allocated to another cost center unsing this assessment cost element. Hence the origin of the cost is not retained.
    From a business requirement perspective, we need to use distribution for allocating the service costs to real cost centers.  After that we need to use Assessments
    43.Internal Activity allocation.
    Using this type of cost element, we can plan, calculate the prices of activities and obsorb the costs to Production Orders, Service orders etc.
    this plays very crucial role in cost obsorption in product costing or sevice costing areas
    32-Order/Project result analysis.
    One of the most important and complex area in Product costing would be Calculation of WIP/Result Analysis.
    We will be able to calculate and settle the WIP or Result analysis value to FI only by using Cost elements created with Category 32
    I hope i made it clear to you.
    Please let me know if you need futher information in this regard

  • Using ?import:file? command in a linux Enterprise server

    Hello.
    I'm with a problem with a template. I never had a client that use linux as OS in enterprise server.
    I work with embedded bi publisher in JDEDWARDS and usually i use this command to call dinamic footers and never had a problem. For example
    <?import:file:///\\10.153.2.86\BIP\R5543501\footerlastpage.rtf?>. This customer is in linux and dont know nothing about linux but i think that the problem is in this command because linux dont use " \\ " to perform this command \\10.153.2.86\BIP\R5543501\footerlastpage.rtf.
    Someone know how i can solve this problem? i tried something like this ( <?import:file://///10.153.2.86\BIP\R5543501\footerlastpage.rtf?>) but still not working and cant find much information in internet about this.
    Any help is appreciated
    Tks in Adavance
    Paulo Duarte

    Hi Paulo,
    You can import subtemplates this way:
    <?import:http://myservername/subtemplates.rtf?> (access over HTTP)
    or
    <?import:file:///mydirectory/subtemplates.rtf?> (access over File System)
    (Notice: http uses two forward slashes // and file uses three /// )
    So in your case try this: <?import:file:///10.153.2.86/BIP/R5543501/footerlastpage.rtf?>
    Another thing to make sure is set is this:

  • Automate exports and imports (file names)

    Hi all,
    I will like to do a simple export and import into another schema in another database.
    I am very comfortable with the process but all i require is how to set the dump file and log file names to be the date and name of the database being exported and imported.
    For example when I do the export I want the dump file and logfile names to be exp_ORCL_230805.dmp and exp_ORCL_230805.log for database ORCL exported on 230805.
    For the import I want the logfile name to be imp_TEST_230905.log.
    I am doing this export and import on a windows xp client but the database reside on UNIX AIX boxes.
    Thanks alot

    Set up ORACLE_SID before you start the imp/exp session on the client, then you can use file=exp_%ORACLE_SID%_%DATE%.dmp etc. (Note that if your windows locale has a date format w/ whitespace you might have to write a script to get rid of it..)

  • What setup do I use to import files from my hard drive into FCE 4.0.1?

    I can import files (HD from Canon camera, saved as QuicktimeMov - ratio 1920 x1080, 25fps) to FCE but they show up as needing rendering.
    (red line above timeline)  What should my settings be to make them compatible to FCE?  I have it set on Apple Codec Intermediate 1920x1080i50 with HD format.
    Have tried all the settings but come up with the same result.  Also, do I need to compress my files before I import them to FCE?
    Thanks.

    Video from the 550D (acually, all Canon DSLRs) cannot be used directly in FCE.  There is a Canon EOS plugin that allows you to directly Log & Transfer from the DSLR into Final Cut Pro, but the plugin does not work with Final Cut Express.
    In order to use the 550D video in Final Cut Express you will need to convert it to QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec by using a utility such as MPEG Streamclip or Clipwrap.  You need to do this before you import the video into FCE.
    Even though the 550D saves video as .mov files (QuickTime files) it uses a Canon H.264 codec which is why it needs to be transcoded into Apple Intermediate Codec before you can use it in FCE.

  • What is the largest MMC and SD card that the Acer C710 can use, and what file formats can be used?

    What is the largest MMC and SD card that the Acer C710 can read from and write to when inserted into the built-in 2-in-1 card reader? What file formats can be used with aforementioned MMC and SD cards?i.e. FAT, FAT 32, exFAT, etc.

    Thank you for you help. I forgot to mention what is the highest class of SD card it can use at top speed, and are there any classes that will simply not work? An example answer would be, the highest speed that it can operate at clase 6, with class 8 being the highest class compatible; class 10 will not work. Also note, there are new cards faster than class 10. I have seen symbols like U1 and U3. I don't expect a discount computer to run an SD card faster than class 10, but it is important to know if U1 and U3 at least work.

  • Approval Workflows and Importing file on OIA

    Hi
    On OIA, we know that workflows are triggered when roles are created or modified.
    I wondered if the workflows are also triggered when roles are imported instead of vbeing created through the OIA GUI?
    Up to now, I saw that the workflows work only when roles are created or modified through the gui. Is it the correct behavior or must the workflows also be triggered when roles are imported?
    Thanks in advance

  • Why do my imported files or created titles always go to some random bin and not the one I want?

    Everytime I import a file via right clicking > Import. It will always go to some random bin that I don't want it to. Each project it's a different bin. Even if I right click > import on the bin I want it to import into, the file will still go to some pre determined default folder. Usually one of my Footage folders a couple of layers down.
    This same thing happens when created titles. I usually have to do a search to find the files. When I used CS2 and 3 I never had this problem.
    Anyone else experiencing this? Is there a way to not have it go to a pre determined default bin? Or can I change that Bin?
    Currently the only way I can get a file to go into the folder I want via importing is when I drag and drop it from my explorer window. I don't use the CS5 media browser because It doesn't have thumbnails.
    Thoughts, solutions?
    Thanks in advance.
    -Switch

    Close.
    With this specific bin structure, if I import as you described the file imports to the Reception Bin. I tried the same proceedure with highlighting>righ clicking> and importing,  files to all bin levels even to the root level not inside a bin and it still goes to the reception bin. So for what ever reason for this project I am working on now the Reception Bin has become the default bin.
    This holds true for titles as well, they get created in the reception bin.
    I thought it might have something to do with the fact that I presort my footage into folders then "import folder" into the footage bin. I thought it might have something to do with the last bin I created or imported became a default bin but in this scenario. The Receception bin is the second to last folder I imported/created.

  • How to validate and import csv file to mysql? (Concurrent update)

    Hi
    I have a csv file with various columns of data which need to be validated and display in a jsp page. After the validation, the data needs to be imported into mysql DB.
    May I ask how can I retrieve those data, validate them and import them row by row to DB?
    Also, the program needs to handle concurrent update of DB. i.e. user A can import data through jsp page while user B can upload the csv file to insert into table.
    Thanks

    validate them Just write Java logic accordingly. You may find the java.lang.String API useful.
    and import them row by row to DB? You can use the JDBC API for this. There is a JDBC tutorial here at Sun.com. Google can find it.
    Also, the program needs to handle concurrent update of DB. i.e. user A can import data through jsp page while user B can upload the csv file to insert into table. Just write threadsafe code.
