Page personalization - Use limited set of iViews to choose from

Hi,
I have the following requirement:
We want users to have a single page they can personalize, by providing them a selection of iViews.
Normally when you are presented the Personalize Page window, you see all the folders and content the user has access to, due to his/her role assignment
However, we want to display only a subset of the user's role content by providing only a single folder with all content to choose from to personalize this page
Is there a way to hide folders and content the user normally has access to (since it is visible through the non-personalizable pages) and only display a folder and it's content in the pcd browser?
Any input would be highly appreciated
Thanks in advance,
Robin van het Hof

Hi Michael,
Thanks for your quick reply
The user also has end-user access to other iViews/pages etc since otherwise he would not be able to see them on other portal pages
However, I want just a dedicated set of iViews, analog to the EP5 'channel' concept
Is there a way to mimic this behaviour?

How can I use ONE Text search iView to event/affect mutliple Result Sets?

hello everyone,
i have a special situation in which i have 6 flat tables in my repository which all have a common field called Location ID (which is a lookup flat to the Locations table).
i am trying to build a page with a free-form text search iView on Table #1 (search field = Location ID). when I execute the search, the result set for Table #1 is properly updated, but how do I also get Result Set iViews for Tables #2-6 to also react to the event from Text Search for Table #1 so that they are updated?
i don't want to have to build 6 different text search iViews (one for each table). i just want to use ONE text search iView for all the different result set tables. but, in the documentation and iView properties, the text search iView doesn't have any eventing.
if you have any suggestions, please help.
many thanks in advance,
mm

hello Donna,
that should not be a problem, since you are detailw with result sets and detail iviews because custom eventing can be defined for those iviews.
Yes, it says "no records" found because an active search and record selection havent' been performed for it (only your main table does).
So, yes, define a custom event, and pass the appropriate parameters and you should be fine.
Creating a custom event between a Result Set iView and an Item Details iView is easy and works. I have done it.
See page 35 of the Portal Content Development Guide for a step-by-step example, which is what I used.
For my particular situation, the problem I'm having is that I want the Search Text iView's event (i.e., when the Submit button is pressed) to be published to multiple iViews, all with different tables. Those tables all share some common fields, which is what the Search iView has, so I'd like to pass the search critera to all of the iViews.

To enable the form to be signed in Reader you will need to open the form in Acrobat; goto Advanced>Enable Usage Rights and then save this copy of the form for sending out to the users.
The user should then be able to edit and digitally sign the form. They can then email the signed/saved pdf as a browsed for attachment or via the email icon in the toolbar. Note - if you have created an email submit button on the form, then unless they have Acrobat they could only return an xml file.
The other way to do this however is to create a dataset by 'distributing' the form. This time the Email Return button will send back a full version of the form. During the distribution setup you will have the option to email the form directly or to save it and send it later,so you can send to users as and when or even post it to a website or intranet.
When you receive and open the returned form it will ask whether you want to add it to the predetermined dataset (or if you want to categorise the returns into geographical areas for example, you could create new additional datasets at this point). If the form is data heavy however, the dataset will become very large and unwieldy pretty quickly, but you can export the data from it (including signatures) in xml format and import this into an Excel spreadsheet.
To simplify the Excel xml import process I'd recommend you carefully structure your form in the hierarchy (LiveCycle) into the order you would want the data items to appear in your spreadsheet and switch off those data items that you will not need by setting the default binding for the irrelevant fields to "None".
Clear as mud? Hope this helps.

Example of setting page item using javascript

Does anyone have an example of setting the value of a page item (hidden) using javascript? I have seen the following in the Forum but I am having trouble implementing it. If someone could show an example of a region it is called from, and the javascript (and where it is placed), that would be great.
I have tried something similar to this without luck so far:
function setValue(){
$x('P1_FIELD').value = 'Oracle';
Thanks!
John

Hi VS,
you should really use a "Set Value" dynamic action for that, that's much more transparent than using the onclick definition in the button attributes.

Calling a portal page in using Webdynpro

Hi Portalites,
I have developed an webdynpro iview, where it will call other uwl page inside the code.
This iview is placed in home role(like welcome page).
in wddoinit method, i have written the code,
where portal users locale is set to English.and then it will navigate to UWL using WDPortalNavigation method.
WDPortalNavigation.navigateAbsolute("ROLES://uwl_page",
WDPortalNavigationMode.SHOW_INPLACE,
(String)null,
(String)null, WDPortalNavigationHistoryMode.NO_DUPLICATIONS,
"UWL",
(String)null,
(String)null);
Iam able to view the UWL in Home page, but after that if i click on any user admin, or content admin roles, and agian clicking on home page again or refreshing the page it is showing previous navigation path in top level navigation but in content area it is dispaying uwl.
Let us clearly expalain, first i have opened portal, home page opened with UWL page in content area.after that i clicked on sytem admin> sytem configuration, after that when i cliked on home role again in TLN, in the TLN it is highlighting system admin>system config but displaying UWL in content area.
In the detailed navigation, it showing all iviews what home page has.
Please advice.
Thanks
Sony.

Hi Sony,
It may be caching problem.
So close all your portal browsers and delete your cache and temporary files.
OR It may be because you have been aaded to lots of Portal roles and groups.
So try minimizing your role and group assignment on portal.
Hope this helps. Am not sure though. Just give it a try.

Trying to personalize the MSS General Data iView

We want to make personalize the General Data iView, which appears on the General Information page. We want to hide a couple of fields (contract text and cap. Utilization) and change the text for another field (Contract Data). We attempted to do this in the standard way, which is to preview the iView and hover the cursor over the area we wish to personalize and use Ctrlright-click. The general data iView does not work by itself. It only works in conjunction with the Employee Search iView on the General Information page. So then we tried to personalize the same fields on the General Information page also using the Ctrlright-click and then clicking Apply and then Ok. The changes appear to save while still in preview mode. Once we close and re-open the page the changes are gone. The system will not allow us to make personalizations to a page and save them. There is no error message showing, the changes are just not saved when you re-open the page. Is there a fix that will allow us to personalize (as an administrator) a page and save the changes?

Hi,
Try it by doing it from portal content folder and navigate to the folder where the iview exits and then iview right click ->open object and preview here and do the changes and save.
If we do it from the content area or from the page the changes will not be there for next time.
Thanks,
gopal

Credit memo (CM) Approval limits set are not being checked in CM creation

Hi,
Customer: ARROW ELECTRONICS INC
SR: 6502816.993
Customer has set the approval limits for credit memo in Receivables
He has set the approval limit as -500 to 0 for a user X.
Created an invoice for 550 $
Gone to Ireceivables and created a dispute for the complete amount (-550$) of the invoice.
Find that the notification is going to the user X even when the amount is not within the approval limits set.
He is able to approve the notification and it is going to the next level approval.
Once that is done the credit memo is getting created.
Checked the packages involved in this.
ARWCMWFB.pls
Find that there is no checking of the approval limits in the package.
Please help me in knowing on whether this is an intended functionality.
Thanks and regards,
Hareesh

Using HR Hierarchy
1. Define three approvers A, B, C for the same reason code and with different approval limits (as this is credit memo the guy with highest negative amount has is the final approver).
2. A reports to B and B reports to C
3. A is approval limit is from -100 to -500, B can approve from -500 to -1000 and C can approve from -1000 to -1500 (all of them have same reason code and currency code).
4. Make sure all of them are employees.
5. Make sure you **DO NOT** check the flag Primary Approver for any of these approval limits in the approval limits screen.
6. In the employees -- Assignments For A, enter supervisor as B, and For B enter Supervisor as C.
7.No enter an invoice for 1200 and complete it.
8. Request for credit from iReceivables for the same invoice for -1200.
9. Now you can see that the notification will go to B and C for approval.
Using Approval Limits hierarchy:
If you do not want to use the employee setup, they can always, use the primary check box. With the same example as above, check the primary check box for A, B and C.
When you request for credit, first A gets, next B gets it and then C gets it.
If you check for only C which is the final approver, workflow will send only one notification and once C approves it will forward.
Ofcourse, before any of these guys are approving, collector assigned to the customer has to approve.
And after all these approvals one more Role (called Receivable Role which can be anybody according to the WF definition) has to approve before the credit is generated).
Now, I am not sure what the customer wants. Do they want multiple approvals or single approval? If they want multiple they have to use the first approach. If not they can use the second approach.
I did a test case again and these comments are the results of the test. I did this on 11.5.9.
Let me know if you have any questions. Also please refer to the metalink note 284804.1How Does Credit Memo Workflow Notify Multiple Approvers?.
Thanks

Creation of custom page without using NetWeaver Developer Studio

Hi Experts,
In my project, we have not installed NetWeaver Developer Studio. We are using EP 7.0.
We have to create a custom page for the project. In this page, we have to provide seperate iViews links.
The page should look like this:
iView 1 - Link                iView 2 - Link        iView 1 - Link
Help iView 1-Link        Help iView 1-Link     Help iView1-Link
I tried to do so by creating a page. In the page, I tried to use 'Three Coloumn Page' layout. The iviews are getting displayed in following way:
iView 1 (iView is getting displayed .Link not getting displayed)
Help iView 1 (iView is getting displayed .Link not getting displayed)
iView 2(iView is getting displayed .Link not getting displayed)
I can not display link of all six iViews. Further more iViews are getting displayed in one coloumn and 3 rows. I can see the iViews directly. I am not able to display links for iViews.
I need 3 coloumns and 2 rows layout.
Can you please let me know how to achieve this?
Whether I have to create new layout? For this whether we will need NetWeaver Developer Studio?
Can we do it by creating HTML page. In the HTML page, we will have many links. These links will point to the iViews stored in SAP EP's KM. If so, what be the steps?
I know that it can be done by creating a PAR file and deploying it. But, we don't have Netweaver Developer Studio.
Can we acheive above without using NetWeaver Developer Studio?
Please help me.
Regards,
Brian

Hi Kedar,
Thanks. My requirement is that six iViews links should be shown in the portal content area.
The iViews links should be like
iView 1-Link         iView 2-Link           iView 3-Link
Help iView 1-Link Help iView 2-Link    Help iView3-Link
When user will click on any iView link, the relevant iView should be displayed. The iView can be displayed in seperate new page. So naturally five iView link will not be displayed.
I am planning to create one HTML page and store it in KM. I will call this page in portal content area.
There will be hyperlink on this HTML page. The hyper link will be attached to other iView links in KM.
Whenever user will click on any Help link or iView link the corresponding iView will be called from KM.
So in KM we will store 7 objects. 3 HTMLpages for help. 1 HTML page for main page.
Other 3 will point to iView-Link1, iView-Link2 and iView-Link3.
Can I do so? Will it sort out my problem?
Thanks

How to pass parameters to a page invoked using java script.--- Very Urgent.

Hello,
I have an advanced Table in my page. In the first column there is a
messageChoice. In the second column there is link item.On the link item i have set the following value for destination uri.
javascript:var a=window.open('OA.jsp?page=/AutoSales/oracle/apps/per/auto/webui/AutoSurrogatesPG&retainAM=Y','a','height=500,width=900,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,resizable=yes,scrollbar=yes'); a.focus();
The user selects a value from the message choice and when he clicks on the link item, the value selected from the list should go to the new page invoked using java script as a parameter. I need the value selected from choice to generates few fields in the new page. I have preferred java script because i need the base page and a model window should open. I have tried using setForwardUrl() and setting '_blank' and new window for target frame property on the link item. But it isnt working. The new page is opening in the same window.
I have also tried putting the value in a session.
Please help with any kind of suggestions or solutions.
Thank you.

Uma,
You need to
- Have a PPR Action on the messageChoice (this would trigger a form submit to populate the underlying View Attribute)
- Either
- Retrive the value from the View Attribute in the pop-up page (as I could see that you are retaining the AM)
- Use a SPEL in the link (on the modal page) to use the value from the View Attribute as the parameter value (in the form ${oa.current.<ViewAttributeName>)

How to use the set functions effectively in webi ,please let me know with detail

how to use the set functions effectively in webi ,please let me know with detail

Hi,
we use use set functions on heirarchies with aggregate functions mostly .
If you include member_set, Min returns the minimum value of the aggregated data for all members in the member set.
Member_set can include multiple sets separated by semicolons (;).
The list of member sets must be enclosed in {}.
If the member set expression does not specify a precise member or node, the hierarchy referenced must be present in the table, then the member set expression references the current member in the hierarchy in the table. If the hierarchy is not in the table, the function returns the message #MULTIVALUE.
Eg .
1)     Ancestor
=Sum([YTD] ; {Ancestor([Test Hierarchy];2)})
2)     IsLeaf
=[Test Hierarchy].IsLeaf
You can use this function when you want to show your Measure only at lower level .
3)     .Depth
=[Test Hierarchy].Depth
This is also function used with hierarchy to find Level of Members .

Page Personalize in Web Page Composer

Hi All,
In the Portal, when we goto Page personalize on a particular page, the end user can the able to arrange the iViews based on his interest. So it won't affect anyone in Portal. Will it be possible in Web Page Composer? or Is there any option to enable that for the particular web page in WPC?
Regards,
Venkatesh. K

Hi Venkatesh,
your requested scenario is not possible in the web page composer context. Once you publish a page, an output.xml file per page is generated that is rendered as HTML. It is not rendered as portal page where you can do some kind of personalization.
kind regards,
Anja

Is there a way to set the browser to go directly to the address I typed in, instead of providing search results and options for spelling and extensions?

You can modify the pref keyword.URL on the about:config page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or Google's "Browse By Name".
