Multiple Entries in EditBox with "," Separator

Hello,
We have one Edit Box in Dashboard to enter Employee_Number, users wants to enter multiple Emp_Number with "," separated. Actually users wants to copy the employee_number from the flat files with "," seprator and paste into Editbox, the report should generate report for all the employees with given employee_number. Is it posible to enter multiple text in EditBox with , or ; separator. Or suggest some alternate approach.
-Rahul

I didn't test it but if you use a separator for employee_number, the IN operator must work.
As
select name from employee where employee_id in (1,2,3)You will have then with a presentation variable set in your prompt :
select name from employee where employee_id in (@presentationvariable)Success

Data in the cube is showing multiple entries when compared with ODS

Hello BW Gurus,
We have a waste report in production planning on Cube and ODS separately. The same info package loads both targets (which means same infosource) but when we run a report on Cube, the records are showing multiple entries (i.e. Key Figures are not matching when compared to ODS) where as the ODS records are showing correctly as it was in R/3. There are totally 6 key figures out of which 4 pulled from R/3 and 2 are populated in BW.
An Example:
Waste report in PP run for plant 1000 for 12/2005 and process order 123456. The operational scrap should be 2.46% and the component scrap should be 3.00% for material 10000000. The report is showing 7.87% for planned operational waste % and 9.6% for planned component waste %. These values are not correct. The ODS values for order 123456 matched the data in R/3 for component and operational scrap.
There is a Start routine to the ODS and also to the cube. I am not good at ABAP so requesting your Help.

some how the AGSU qyt is not populating in the cube and when I dbug the code, I could see a clean record in the internal table but not in the cube.
your suggestion and solutions would be highly appreciated.
thanks,
Swathi.

Hi Swathi
In ODs we have option of overwriting and addition however in Cube we have only adition.Thats why you are getting multiple enteries.
If you are running daily full load on the cube then please delete the earlier requests.
So at one point of time there should be only one full load request in cube. Hope this will solve your problem.

hi,
have a look at these tables
VBAK - Header table
VBAP - Item table
here in table VBAK we have a key field VBELN(document no.)
Whereas for the same document no. we can have many entries in the the table VBAP where the key is VBELN(document no.)
and POSNR (line item no.).
You have to do something of this type i suppose ............
Hope it helps you,

Multiple entries in ARD with same ip, but different ports?

I always learn so much from these forums...thanks to all of you who take the time to answer.
I established 5900/3283 for my primary mac (mac 1) behind my router at home and then configured port forwarding to have a public port of 15900 mapped to the secondary machine (mac 2) at 5900. I have dyndns set up in my router and when connecting from the outside with ARD to the dns name without specifying the port, it connects to mac 1 without problem and reports mac 1 as the name in ARD. Great, no problem.
When I add the 15900 port to the dns name, ARD still shows the mac 1 as the name, but connects to mac 2. Can I fix this to correctly reflect the name of Mac 2? Also, it does not seem possible to have two clients in the ARD list with the same ip address, but different ports. Can this be fixed? Lastly, how do I connect 15900 and 13283 ports in one listing for the port forwarded mac, i.e. how do I enter xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:15900 and xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:13283?
Thanks,

You may have to clarify. Multiple entries in Open With can be normal. For example if you have multiple versions of an application for whatever reason, they will all show. Plus, any applications that report being able to open a file type will show (had an annoyingly long list for text files on my old machine as some apps that didn't even handle documents such as games reported being able to open them).

I want to create a mail merge for address labels into a table, but when I fill a table with merge fields, it ends up creating multiple entries for the same address, rather than one table full of each address.

Contextual menu in finder "open with" has multiple entries of same apps

When I use the contextual menu (right click) on documents, the menu point "open with..." shows multiple entries of the same programs. For example when right clicking a PDF, there appears 5 times neoOffice, 2 times Preview, 6 times ... any other application that you could use to open the document. This occurs on all user accounts, only that the multiplicity of listings of the apps is different. So it can't be a preferences problem on my account. What else could be the cause?
This is quite annoying because the apps-list becomes very long and unusable.
Note: I have 2 internal start up disks with OS and apps installed, but only one mounted. That means, there cannot be a duplicate (triplicate...etc) copy of any app accessible at any time.
Thanks.

if I quit all running applications, it will be pretty hard to put anything in the Trash!
Are you being literal? Like quitting the Finder too? Or what bespeaks you?
Actually, I use Xupport to do that, but I think Onyx and several other Utilities include that option.

Only multiple entries in BP when creating a new table/field with EEW

Hi,
I am creating new tables/fields for BP in CRM 4.0 using transaction EEWB.
This is working quite well but the fields that appear allows multiple entries per BP. I just want one single entry per BP.
The wizard talks about multiple options but I cannot see how I define that if it should be a single entry or multiple.
Any idea how to achieve that?
Thanks,
//anders

Hi
As i know the fields will be multiple only, u can try for 'default'
and also try in the wizard in step 2
The Process of EEW will be like this
1. To add new fields to the business partner, use the business object Business Partner (BUPA) and create an enhancement of the type "Add New Fields". A wizard helps you define the individual enhancements and provides you with the necessary information for each step.
2 For each field, you must define the field name, data type and, if necessary, the field length.
3 For each field, define whether a check table should be available.
4 For each field, you must also determine whether it should be transferred to SAP BI or to CRM Field Applications.
5 In the last wizard screen, the system shows you an overview of the fields you defined, together with their associated attributes.
6 To start generation, choose Complete.
I hope u can solve ur prob in Step 2 data type
cheers

AutoComplete with multiple entries

I would like to develop an autocomplete or autosuggest
component that is able to take multiple entries in the text input
that are separted by commas or semicolons (similar to an email
application's 'To: functionality). I've looked at both the Adobe
AutoComplete component and the Yahoo Astra Flex AutoComplete
component, and they don't seem to be able to handle this natively.
I would appreciate any help on how to extend these components to
accept multiple entries, or if there is another component that
already has this built in functionality, please let me know.
Thanks,
Stuart

I'm currently looking for that too :)
Seems like no one ever made one

Multiple Entries in Single Field (seperate data...?)

I have some mess of data and curious on if this can resolved simple from a query.
What I have, is multiple entries in a single cell. All the data is separated by pipes(|).
So, I have data similar to this in a table.(all made up of course :))..
Soda, coke|pepsi|dew|dtcoke,
Computer, dell|hp|gateway,
What I'm looking to do, is to turn these values into separate columns. So the final output would look
soda, coke
soda, pepsi
soda, dew
soda, dtcoke
computer, dell
computer, hp
computer, gateway
Any suggestions. And, sorry for the hefty examples. Figured more the better....

In the Oracle 10 work-around, when this expression
1 + LENGTH (b_list) - LENGTH (REPLACE (b_list, '|', NULL))is used in sub-query cntr, it is to find the worst case across the whole table, so it should be the argument of MAX. Say
MAX (1 + LENGTH (b_list) - LENGTH (REPLACE (b_list, '|', NULL)))or
1 + MAX (LENGTH (b_list) - LENGTH (REPLACE (b_list, '|', NULL)))In the main query, it applies just to the single value in the current row, so you should not use MAX there.

Picking the value of PBEG and PEND incase of multiple entries 2002 on a day

Hi Experts,
Our client's business requirement is to have provision handling multiple entries multiple entries of same subtype of IT 2002 on same day with different Time entries.For example one IT 2002 Styp 1 has entry 10 am to 14 pm & other entry of IT 2002 styp 1 as 14 pm to 16 pm.
In this scenario I want to have TWT with start time of 1st 2002 record i.e 10 & another TWT with end time of last 2002 record i.e. 16.
I have written a PCR as
OUTTPORIGS Origin status
    COLOP*     TIP >TOP curr.TType
P
    HRS=PBEG   Set
    ADDDB90T3 Add to day balance
    HRS=PEND   Set
    ADDDB90T4 Add to day balance
But its giving me value of 2002 start time as (1014=24) & END time (1416=30) respectively.
Since TIP will have entries with origin E & A as well with P and any entry can be 1st or last entry depending on time, I can't use VRSTFIRST & VARSTLAST.
Please suggest me how to handle such scenario through PCR. Is there a way we can make decision on From & To of TIP entries.
You can also suggest me if such need can be handled at masterdata level so that we can have just one entry
Regards
S S
Hi All,
Please also suggest me a better operation to pick the value of PBEG and PEND incase of multiple entries various subtypes of 2002 on same day.I need to compare start- end time of 2002 with 2011 entries and calculate total attendence hrs. Once again, I can't use VRSTFIRST & VRSTLAST as 1st & last TIP entry could be come from any infotype viz 2011,2002, 2001.

Multiple entries of the same topic in calendar

Hi, i am having trouble with my calendar, as in it displays multiple entries of 1 entry on the same day! eg. if i have one entry then it displays that same entry about 15-20 times on that same day in a list!!! can anyone help with this fault?

I'm having same problem but where there are duplicate calendar entries, one of the entries cannot be changed (doesn't have edit button)and the other entry can be changed. Needed to reschedule a doctor's appointment and wasn't able to delete b/c there isn't an edit button. So it stays there. Don't know which date is the new rescheduled date. I have iPhone 3g. Since iPhone4 my 3g is extremely slow too.

Multiple Entries on ipod

I imported a 4 disc CD to i tunes and then synced it to my ipod. When I go into albums on the ipod, there are multiple entries and not just the 4 cds.Every entry shows the same tracks, so in essence I have about 10 entries for each CD. Also, in another case when a single album was synced to the ipod, it appears 4 times on the ipod. Why this happening?

*HowTo: Grouping Tracks Into Albums*
Excuse the long post, but hopefully covering all the bases (that I can think of) will help you fix the other issues you are likely to run into as you try to organise your iTunes library.
*Use an album friendly view*
iTunes will let you sort music on many columns, some of which are unlikely to group albums together or put the tracks in their normal order. The most useful order for editing the library is probably *Album by Artist*. If you're not already there, select the list view and click on the column heading for Album until it reads Album by Artist.
*One cover, too many tracks*
The iPod (and iTunes to a lesser extent) conflates two or more albums with the same title, most obviously with *Greatest Hits*. On the iPod this can result in one album acting as a combination of two or more. Selecting any cover gives all the tracks of all albums with the same title. The workaround for this "Greatest Hits" bug is to give each album a unique title - I tend to go for *Album - Album Artist* as this reads clearly in the iTunes browser. Alternatively you could use the wording as it appears on the cover or append different numbers of spaces for each different album. Somewhat oddly, setting different values for Sort Album doesn't work.
*Missing Artist or Album not with others by same artist*
iTunes relies on the Gracenote CDDB database when identifying CD's. This often marks collections or anthologies of an artist's work as a compilation. In iTunes, however, the compilation flag has the logical function of grouping together tracks with the same album name, but different artists on each track, e.g. "Now That's What I Call Metal 666!". These compilations are then all grouped together at the end of cover flow. Most of us however, would expect "Greatest Hits" albums to be listed with the other albums by the same album artist. For albums which are essentially by a single album artist or group it is best to set the appropriate value for the album artist and clear the compilation flag.
*One album, too many covers*
For true compilations, where each track is by a different artist, the answer is to set the compilation flag to true and enable the iTunes preference to *Group compilations when browsing*. If the album is not a compilation however, any tracks which list guest artists may be treated as separate items. Filling in the Album Artist field is enough to link things in iTunes. Sadly, however, the iPod ignores the Album Artist field when grouping albums so this is only a partial solution. You can simply mark the entire album as a compilation which seems to be the way iTMS handles it, however that's not an ideal fix. Short of waiting for Apple to address this issue (and as far as I can tell it goes back to the 1st gen. of iPods) we need a workaround. What I do is to put any additional artist info. in square brackets after the song name. E.g. *Track \[Feat. Guest\]* and then set *Artist=Album Artist* for each track. For anthologies where the Album Artist is credited as part of another group, e.g. for Cream tracks on an Eric Clapton anthology, I use *Track \[As Group\]*. For a track where the main Album Artist doesn't receive a credit, e.g. the first track of the Slim Shady LP credited to Jeff Bass, I just set the track name to *Track \[Guest\]* while still setting the artist to the album artist. N.b. I use square brackets to indicate that this is information about the track as distinct from the song title and also use this style for Mix/Live/Bonus info.
*One album, still too many covers*
iTunes may split albums into two or more sections if some tracks from the album have different values for Artist, Album Artist, Album, No. of Discs or Part of a Compilation. Tiny differences such as trailing spaces, accented characters or variants of symbols can sometimes be quite hard to spot. The iPod is also more sensitive to case variations and may split or reorder an album that looks okay in iTunes. Normally overtyping the desired value for each shared field will complete the grouping of the album into one entity. Occasionally, however, this method seems to fail. When this happens I've found that you can force every field to update properly by adding some extra text - e.g. a trailing X, which once applied seems to complete the joining of the tracks into one album. Once this has happened the extra data can be removed and the album should remain properly grouped.
*Tried that, there are STILL too many covers!*
The Sort Artist, Sort Album & Sort Album Artist fields can be used to override the normal sort order. For example iTunes automatically drops leading articles (a/an/the) so "The Beatles" are arranged under "B" instead of "T". Occasionally different tracks from the same album can have different values in these sort fields which can also break up the grouping. Making the sort columns visible in iTunes can help with spotting & correcting such problems.
*One cover for multi-disc album*
Multi-disc albums are often listed as *Album (CD1)* for CD 1, *Album (CD2)* for CD 2 etc. To display these properly using just one cover, each disc should have the correct *Disc X of Y* values set, and then the entire album should be given the single title Album. Being somewhat obsessive I also renumber the tracks sequentially, working backwards from the last track (so that no two tracks ever have the same number) until I reach disc 1. BTW You can still give the individual discs different artwork should it be relevant so that the correct artwork will be displayed as the album progresses.
*Tracks out of sequence*
Check that all tracks have the same/correct disc no. For a single disc album this should be either blank (my preference) or 1 of 1. iTunes will sort tracks with a disc no. of 1 before those that are blank. Just for fun the iPod sorts them the other way around. Consistency is the key. In addition ensure that the Sort Artist, Sort Album Artist & Sort Album fields are the same across all tracks.
*One artist, many names*
With some artists, particularly classical composers, you should be aware of alternative representations of their names. E.g. 2Pac vs. Tupac. The menus will work best if for each artist you standardise on just one form of their name. E.g. make a choice between Mozart, W.A. Mozart or Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and then apply it consistently. For classical music I tend also to use the Composer as the Artist & Album Artist and either discard the performer details or place these into the Comments field. The Sort Artist/Sort Album Artist fields can group alternate forms in iTunes but these will break up again on the iPod. It is best therefore to use Artist & Album Artist consistently so the name is shown the way that you want and Sort Artist & Sort Album Artist to control where it is displayed.
