Object Version Number column

Hi all,
In the OAF dev guide,they have given some information on object version number column which can be used to store the version of the row data entered.
This can be achieved by mapping a attribute to ObjectVersionNumber attribute.
I tried mapping it i didn't see any attribute with the name ObjectVersionNumber in the BC4j EO wizard.
Can somebody please give more information on this
And do correct me if i gone wrong somewhere
Thanks in advance
Ashwini

Another use of this column is to maintain the history record. So each time you update the record, another record with same primary key, but with an increased OVN.

Time_building_block_id and object version number

Hello,
could someone help me out with an explanation how the time_building_block_id and object version number to be interpreted?
Are these independent? What actions create new ID and new ovn?
My first idea was that one ID can have different instances in the table with different object version numbers. However I found cases belonging to the same parent buildingblock where both the id and ovn are different.
So based on this only one of the columns could be primary.
However for the joins both are used typically at the same time, suggesting that the two together constitutes a primary key.
Are the DETAIL level records belonding to the same DAY level record to be treated as co-existing entries and their measure to be summarized? Or only the latest (bigger ovn?) to be considered, so it is an updated version of the record with the previous ovn?
thanks!

The version number in the TC Building blocks is used to identify changes to timecard building blocks. It is not the same as an object version number on a record in a table.
OTL keeps an audit history of all changes to the timecard, at whatever level they occur. It uses this in retropay processes to identify the 'true' hours to use.
TC Building blocks have a 'scope', for example there are building blocks at these levels:
Timecard
Period / Application
Day
Detail
If you entered 8 hours on a new timecard for Monday 07/09/09 it would create a building block record for that date and call it version 1.
If you later make a change to that DAY, OTL will create a new record with version 2. Say this one shows 7 hours.
OTL can then interpret this as -8 + 7 = -1 and make the appropriate adjustment.
Hope that helps explain it!

The same Object Version Number for the same person id multiple times

Hello all,
I am currently facing an issue with HRMS tables and the object version number for employees. I am trying to write a report but due to the same object version number for the same person appearing in several row i am getting duplicate information. For example,
person id 91 object version number 32 is on 4 rows and i have no idea why...help please guys, I'm at a lost so far 50 people are facing the same issue.

Hi Baal666bobo,
The person table is date-tracked, so the PK has effective start and end dates as well.
Get the correct record with sysdate(or any particular date) and then check the OVN.
Cheers,
Vignesh

DPR_PROJECT table - Version number field

Hi,
On Cpro save, data gets updated into DPR_PROJECT table. But observed that no updates are happening in "Version number" column.
Thru SPRO configuration, project versions are enabled for this project type.
To update u201Cversion numberu201D, should we need to call and FM explicitly? Pls help.
Regards,
Beula

Hi, Beula,
Activating "Versions" on the project type is definitely needed. It sounds like you covered this step.
You will also need to navigate to this part of SPRO:
Collaboration Projects -> Structure -> Define Permitted Version Numbers
We have one set up like this:
Input Template:     VERS+++ (for version)
Text:      Project - Versions: Snapshots
Vers. Type:      Snapshot
Usage:      Global
Archived:      Not checked
BW:      Not checked
We have found that using global snapshots and simulations means that the data can be extracted to BI. Local ones were not the last time we tried (even if BI is checked). That was the big difference for us. We also just found out that if "Archived" is checked then you can not delete a snapshot or simulation without first archiving the snapshot or simulation. We just unchecked this in our configuration so we can delete snapshots and simulations.
Then you will want to navigate to the "Versions" part of cProjects. You will want to make sure the dropdown for Version Type is "Snapshot." Click the "Version Management" button. Here you create versions that correspond to the input template you just created in the configuration. You need to create a released snapshot version that can be used by the project to take the snapshot. So click "Create" and fill out the fields making sure to check "Released" and make the "Valid to:" date as long as you need it. I make all of mine valid to 12/31/9999 for now. Transfer and save this.
When you go to your project now you will want to click on the "Project Versions" tab. You'll then want to make sure you are on the snapshots tab. You can create a snapshot using the version that you created in version management.
Hope this helps!

Setting version number to column

Hello,
Having a table consisting of 3 columns :
1. doc_no
2. item_id
3. item_name
And displaying these columns into a submit form, making doc_no as read only.
Question:
I want to generate doc_no automatically in the page (like adf.currentDate in date column).So i did need the help of version number in edit attribute coulmn section for a particular doc_no column.*But though it is a primary key ,i 'm unable to set version number from history column*.
So if anyone h've idea in regarding this (or) any idea to automatically generate doc_no, plz share with me.
With Regards

Well, you've been given proper guidance - the Fusion Developer's Guide explains it all in great detail (it's the document from which I gave you the link). The technique works fine.
If you don't believe the guidance is proper, then explain to us what doesn't work properly or why it won't work for your business case and then we can help.

In XML Output the values of Number column tags are not displayed properly

Hi,
Our Client have been using AR Invoice Print Program for a long time and it is heavily customized. Also they are using an old version of the RDF. So we have taken the latest version of the RDF (RAXINV.rdf) for Oracle Apps 11.5.10.2 by raising a SR and implement Client's old RAXINV.rdf into it.
All was ok, but when we are running the program, the XML Output did not generate properly. For the Q_INVOICE query (G_ORDER_BY, G_INVOICE and G_INV_TERM group), the value of some of the scaler number columns are not appeared properly. The tags are coming correctly, but the value is appearing as '*', instead of the correct value. We have checked in the RDF Level (By putting srw.message and check in the log file) that those columns are having proper value. So there is no issue with the RDF.
But because of the above mentioned problem, the some of the PDF output field values also is not generated correctly.
I think that because of the lexical parameters which was implementing the Q_INVOICE query (&COMMON_QUERY) this issue is coming. Because the issue is only in the Q_INVOICE query group (G_ORDER_BY, G_INVOICE and in G_INV_TERM group) not in any other query group.
There is no problem with the scaler character columns. The issue is only with the number columns.
Also we have checked that if we hardcode the value of the number columns in the above mentioned lexical parameter, this problem doesn't appear.
If we put TO_CHAR function to those number columns in the lexical parameter (COMMON_QUERY), then this issue get solved. But we can't do it because of performance issue and also Client won't approve it.
Please help.
With Thanks and Regards

I don't know how to read the code you pasted or I would have checked this myself.
Do your fields in the internal table reference dictionary objects or elementary types? If not using dictionary types, the column names will be blank by default. If you can't change your fields to be dictionary types, you can try this to change the column names:
I made a method inside my local class to add the names:
        call method set_colname
          EXPORTING iv_tab = alv_tab
                    iv_colid = 'xxxx' "fieldname from the table
                    iv_stxt = text-t54
                    iv_mtxt = text-t55
                    iv_ltxt = text-t55.
METHOD set_colname .
data:
          alv_cols type REF TO cl_salv_columns_table,
          alv_col type REF TO cl_salv_column.
TRY .
*... Change fieldnames
        call METHOD iv_tab->get_columns RECEIVING value = alv_cols.
        call method alv_cols->get_column EXPORTING columnname = iv_colid RECEIVING value = alv_col.
        IF iv_stxt <> ''.
          CALL METHOD alv_col->set_short_text EXPORTING value = iv_stxt.
        ENDIF.
        IF iv_mtxt <> ''.
          CALL METHOD alv_col->set_medium_text EXPORTING value = iv_mtxt.
        ENDIF.
        IF iv_ltxt <> ''.
          CALL METHOD alv_col->set_long_text EXPORTING value = iv_ltxt.
        ENDIF.

Display SharePoint Version number in Excel

I have managed to display the SharePoint Version Number in Word 2007, using the label and the Document Management Policies in SharePoint. Now I am looking for something similar in MS Excel 2007, allowing me to automatically display the current version number
of the Excel file somewhere inside the document.
The idea is to always have an up to date version number on any printout of an Excel file, so that we can control our documents better. While I managed to display the number through the "Quick Parts" tool in Word, I cannot see anything similar in Excel.
Any ideas on how I can achieve this?
Thanks for the help.

Firstly on the SharePoint document library create a custom column called SPVersion. A custom workflow will then be required to copy the SharePoint version number into the SPVersion column when an item is updated or added.
Start Excel and from the quick access toolbar, select More Commands. Then from the left navigation, choose Popular and ensure that 'Show developer bar in the ribbon' is selected. Click OK. Now open the Excel and save the file as a Macro Enabled Excel
Workbook. From the developer ribbon, click on 'View Code'. Right click on Microsoft Excel Objects and click on Insert > Module. Paste the user defined function below into the module:
Function SPVersion()
Dim wb As Workbook
Set wb = ThisWorkbook
For Each prop In wb.ContentTypeProperties
If prop.Name = "SPVersion" Then
SPVersion = prop.Value
End If
Next prop
End Function
Now return to the Excel sheet and enter the function =SPVersion in any of the Excel cells to display the SharePoint version number.

How can I set a version number for an AppleScript application?

Subject kind of says it all... I've written a small application in AppleScript, which is used on several computers. I'd like the application to have a version number, just like normal applications have. How do I give it one?
To be clear, what I mean is: in column view, if you click once on an application, it shows the icon, name, size, version, etc. of the application. I want a version number to show up there (and in the Get Info window, etc.)

Posting to this old post, but I am trying above method on my 10.8.2 machine and it doesn't seem to work.
I added the bundle version string as in the attached image.
Recompile my app, saved it but still version info doesn't show up in finder.
Also, tried to change "Bundle version" to "CFBundle version". But still didn't work.
Any suggestions?

OptimisticLockException, no version number in identity map

A project using TopLink is getting the following exception randomly. Any suggestion on what might cause the exception?

It may not have been read before the update was attempted.
Class> com.ford.mss.wdmo.wiqs.business.model.VehicleConfigurationOptionEconomics
Primary Key> [null, 0] The problem seems to occur after certain sequence of operation: update an object

The problem does not occur whey only trying to update the graph by inserting the
new object in the graph.
It appears that some 'empty object' (i.e. PK null, other attributes not set) got
registered in the UnitOfWork, though we have not determined how it happened.
Just wondering if anyone has experienced the exception or knows what can cause the exception...
I appreciate your comments.
Haiwei

Worked with the project and solved the problem.
The exception was caused by some unwanted 'empty object' (i.e. object whose PK is null) in the object graph that's registered with UnitOfWork. It appears that the cached object graph was corrupted with the 'empty object' for some user execution sequences. After removing the original source where an 'empty object' was created/added to object graph, the problem has not been seen.
Thanks.

Exception: java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file

Hi, thank you for the reply. However, java is definitely enabled on my computer, on all my browsers. In fact, if I go to the SUN website and run the java test, I get that all is OK.
I think it may have something to do with the .class (maybe in .jar-file) compiled with a higher version of java than the virtual machine trying to run it.
The example I found (google search) is .class-file that is compiled with JDK 6 and I am trying to run it with 1.4 JVM.
There is some software error going on somewhere... but I do not know enough to fix it.
Many thanks for all your help

Query a stored procedure that exec's a dynamic query. Error Linked server indicates object has no columns

I have a stored procedure that dynamically creates a pivot query. The procedure works and returns the correct data. Now I have a requirement to show this data in reporting system that can only pull from a table or view. Since you can not
create a dynamic query in a view I tried to do a select from using openquery.
Example 'Select * from OpenQuery([MyServername], 'Exec Instance.Schema.StoredProcedure')
I get the error back "the linked server indicates the object has no columns". I assume this is because of the first select statement that is stuffing the variable with column names.

Then again, a good reporting tool should be able to do dynamic pivot on its own, because dynamic pivoting is a presentation feature.

Displaying and reading are two very different things.
#1) SSRS Needs a fixed field list on the input side to know what what to make available in the designer.
#2) SSRS cant read "exec (@Sql)" out of a proc, even if there is a fixed number of columns (at
least it can't use it to auto build the field list from the proc)
I use dynamic SQL in my report procs on a fairly regular basis and I've found it easiest to simply dump
the results of my dynamic sql into a temp table at the end of the procs and then select from the temp table.
Basically, Erland is correct. Stop trying to pivot in the query and let SSRS (or whatever reporting software you're using) handle it with a Martix.

Display version number in documents in SharePoint 2013

Can someone please advise how i do this? I have followed other answers and have got to the point where my document has the word Version in the footer but no number and in the column in the library displays the correct version number initially but then
once i edit the document it displays Version O and remains at 0 no matter how many versions are created. Help please!

The question wasn't about turning Sharepoint versioning on, it was about getting the Sharepoint version numbers to synchronise with the Word document property of the same name.
It ought to work. It doesn't (the Sharepoint version number doesn't even show up in the Document Information Panel or document property fields). I believe there is a workaround out there, but like the Original Poster I haven't found it yet.
As far as I can tell this has been broken in different ways in all the differnt versions of Sharepoint, at elast up to SP 2007. It's about time it was fixed.
Hi, All you will need to do is turn on versioning for your document library. You will need to navigate to the document library you would like to have versioning enabled on, click on settings and then document library settings. In the document library settings
click on versioning settings. From the versioning settings you will be able to enable the feature. Thanks, Tim Muth Microsoft Online Services Technical Support

Version number is displayed as a code not the number

I've created a document template within a library and added a label to display the version of a document on the footer and I continued to add other columns such "date created, date modified, Revision etc" and now the version number is displayed
as a code not the number that was displayed before. before the version was displayed as minor versions but now it shows this "{_UIVersionString}". Can anyone
help please
Thanks In advance

Hi Rajendra,
If i understood your problem correctly then try this
i am giving one example how to use html tags in sql query
you can try for other html tags
but below code only works with PL/SQL Dynamic Content region,so create your report using this region.
htp.p('<ol type = "circle">');
htp.p('<li>');
----------------your code------
htp.p('</li>');
htp.p('</ol>');
htp.p('<br>');
hope this helps you,
Thanks,
Jitendra

We can't add a decimal number column with the create table forms

In the version 4, we can't add a decimal number column with the create table forms.

In the GUI, I found the following column (I translate from french to english): PK, Name, Data_type, lenght, not null, default, comments.
In the lenght field, if I enter 9,3 to have a NUMBER(9,3), I have a message saying that the number must be an integer.
