Passing drop down values to email in Lifecycle 8

Hello,
I have a form which i have been playing with but havent got it quite working how i would like.
I have an access database with dealer name, dealer code, and fmt email. What I have the form doing is displaying the dealer name in a drop down box using dynamic properties with the value being the fmt email. The submit button grabs the rawValue of the drop down and makes it the recipient.
This bit works fine. The problem is, when the form is emailed, the drop down list does not display the selected value. There are five fmt email groups, and 130 dealers. This works out to on average about 25 dealers per group. I am pretty sure the problem is due to when the form is submitted, it maintains the value of the drop down, but since it is not unique, it reverts to the top of the group which was selected as it cannot distinguish which one was actualy chosen.
I tried then using a unique identifier for the drop down, (such as dealer code) making it populate another form, then try and grab the displayed text from that field for the email instead of the rawValue, but I have had no success.
Can anybody please give me some ideas on how i should tackle this? Locking drop down after selection?
regards
Darryl

OK, I have progressed further using the editvalue command. This works great in Adobe Professional, but in reader it does not grab the eidtvalue (the displayed text) rather it seems to get the rawvalue.
Does any body know why this is the case?
I would love to get a reply from someone this time!

Passing drop down value to java code

Hi,
I am using a htmlb dropdownlist element in a jsp file. And I have included the java code in the same jsp. I need to know how to pass the selected value from the drop down to the java code.
Can anyone please help?
Thanks & regards,
Malita Fernandes

Not a problem, please create a java bean class which is having setter and getter methods
for example if you drop down name is Day and create bean class like
public class week
           private Day;
           public void setDay(String day){
           this.Day=day;
           public String getDay() {
      return this.Day;
JSP File
<SELECT name=Day>
<OPTION value="" selected>- Select -</OPTION>
<OPTION value=Sunday>Sunday</OPTION>
<OPTION value=Monday>Monday</OPTION>
<OPTION value=Tuesday>Tuesday</OPTION>
<OPTION value=Wednesday>Wednesday</OPTION>
<OPTION value=Thursday>Thursday</OPTION>
<OPTION value=Friday>Friday</OPTION>
<OPTION value=Saturday>Saturday</OPTION>
</SELECT>
<% week w=new week();
w.setDay(Day); %>

Drop down values in Adobe print form, WDA.

Hi All,
I would like to know, how we can dynamically display drop down values in an interactive form developed either through report programme or WD ABAP.
I passed an internal table, but it didnt work.
I tried the ISR way, even then i couldnt get much success.
I even tried using the dynamic properties.
As per my understanding, i need to pass the values as index- text pairs and add some script to the field.
Kindly help on the steps i need to follow. Any suggestions are welcomee [:)]. I require to fetch the DDL values from database tables.
Kind Regards,
- anto.

hi,
to populate the dropdown list you can do it...
1). manually or
2). by code
1). <b>manually</b> go to interactive form->edit
     go to Object tab->field tab ->
     you must see something like
     List Items :
     Text     + x
     click on the green + sign...
     it promps you to type. type in the value press enter... and so on...
2) <b>by Code...</b>
    //set up contents of a drop down list dynamically...
    IWDAttributeInfo countryInfo = wdContext.nodeTravelData().getNodeInfo().
            getAttributeInfo().getAttribute("DestinationCountry");
    ISimpleTypeModifiable countryType =
            countryInfo.getModifiableSimpleType();
    IModifiableSimpleValueSet countryValueSet =
            countryType.getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet();
    countryValueSet.put("1","Germany");
    countryValueSet.put("2","UK");
This will work....

Populate Drop down values to Adobe forms

Hello,
I am in the process of developing the HCM forms for PCR's. This is using old technology. How can I pass values to the Adobe forms based on certain condition selected in previous screen. For eg. Based on Position selected, I should have a certain value in Drop down pre-selected on the next screen and when the user does a drop down a list of the values should be listed. Where should do the coding for the subsequent drop down values?
Appropriate points rewarded.
Prasad

Here a change in the question below. Based on Position selected, I should have a certain value in Drop down pre-selected on the next screen from table IT1008
and when job is selected drop down from table T500P should be listed. Does this need to be handled in badi or in the Adove form scripting?
Thanks

Technical names for drop down values through webui

Hi All, I have ECC 6.0 (SAPKH61705) transactions being launched in CRM 7.0 (SAPKU71305) through the transaction launcher. We are able to display technical names for values in ECC through the gui, and in CRM in both the gui and webui. Is it possible to display the technical names for ECC through the webui? Apologies if this is not the correct forum, I was not sure where to post. For further clarification of the issue, I hope these screen shots assist: ECC gui with 'display technical names' activated: qui - tech names on.jpg CRM webUI with 'display technical names' activated in both ECC and CRM: webui - tech names not visible.jpg Assistance appreciated.

Hi Amy,
Yes, it's possible.
You can achieve it by coding. Instead of passing only the description to your drop down values, we can send technical name and description simultaneously to your drop down value. That's it.

I have created a PDF form with multiple drop downs, all with the same drop down values. When I select a value from 1 of the drop down fields, it replicates in all of the others - which I do not want. How can I fix this?

I have created a PDF form with multiple drop downs, all with the same drop down values. When I select a value from 1 of the drop down fields, it replicates in all of the others - which I do not want. Can I fix this?

I'm fairly new to this, but I think it has to do with the way you have the drop downs named. Did you copy one then keep pasting it in each field? If so, that is the problem. You should rename each one with a different number: Dropdown1, Dropdown2, etc. I think that might solve the issue.

HCM F&P - How to set the field as Required based on drop down values

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to set the Date field as mandatory when a particular value is selected in drop down list. I have already tried with MessageBox though it displays the error message but process moves further i.e. on clicking Check & Send button it throws an error message but still it moves further and i can see only Send button. Ideally it should halt there itself.
Thanks & Regards,
Jitesh Talreja

Thanks for your valuable inputs
Chintan
I have already tried this. It only highlight the field with the red border but still allow to move further.
Mukesh
Yes, we can definately control this from the backend but that would be the last option i should execute. Ideally, this is something to be controlled in front end itself
Poornima
By setting the field attrbiute Required will set the field mandatory as a whole irrespective of drop down values or any other UI element.

Drop down values for table in a view not getting populated dynamically

Hi Experts,
The problem which i am facing is as follows
In an existing web dynpro component , i already have a view and it consists of table which has 3 columns.All the three columns are non editable
MATERIAL     MAT_DESC     MAT_DEL_FLAG
ABC
EFG
HIJ
Now i need to add 2 more columns after the MAT_DEL_FLAG.These two PLANt and STORAGE LOCATION columns must have drop down values
The context refers to a standard Database ZTABLE to which these two fields are added.
MATERIAL     MAT_DESC     MAT_DEL_FLAG     PLANT     STORAGE_LOCATION
ABC
EFG
HIJ
The Plant column must have the drop down values based on Material .
If we select some value for Plant , then based on the value of plant the storage location drop down values must be populated.
So as per this logic , the drop down values for plant for each row must be different.
Please let me know how to achieve this.
This is a normal table and not an ALV table.
Also please let me know whether the drop down field must be drop down by key or drop down by index.
This is very urgent.
Thanks in advance
Sindhu

Refreshing things again for you -
1. As I have already pointed, create 2 context attributes for VALUESETS for both plant and St.loc.
2. Create dropdown by indexes for both of them, assign valusets to respective attributes using node information.
3. Go to the plant dropdown and create the action for it ONSELECT event - when you chagne the dropdown of plant then populate the respective storage loc.
4.Now, As you are selecting a row (leadselect) you have populated the plant and loc details....write the code for lead selection event of the table
You will get the lead selection index right using node interface (IF_WD_CONTEXT_NODE)
LOOP AT ITAB INTO WA_ITAB.
if sy-tabix eq lv_lead_index.
clear wa_valuset.
wa_valueset-key = 'X'.   "plant
wa_valueset-value = 'X'.
append wa_valueset to it_valueset1.
* popultae the storage location valuset based on the plant selected (bydefault it is 1 right in dropdown)
clear wa_valuset.
wa_valueset-key = 'XX'.   "storage loc
wa_valueset-value = 'XY'.
append wa_valueset to it_valueset2.
else.
* Fill the valusets for all other rows as different or as per your requirement.
endif.
wa_itab-valuset1 = lt_valueset1.
wa_itab-valuset2 = lt_valueset2.
modify itab from wa_itab transporting valuset1 valuset2.
clear wa_itab.
ENDLOOP.
lo_node->bind_table ( it_tab).
Now for that Row, if a plant value is changed, respective storgae loc has to be filled right...then in that ONSELECT of plnat drodpwon again you need to write a piece of code...using the same code with a little modifications.
Hope this is clear.
Check this article on the same - but here ALV is used...the concept is same use it for your table -
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d0cbdde3-fe58-2c10-fcbc-8db18e693877?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
the above code you hvae pasted - i think it fills only for the 1st time....

WebPart drop down values working fine on PostBack in Dev. Environment (Single Machine) not in Farm

We have three drop downs (ddlRotation, ddlOnCallType and ddlHospital) in our webpart. All values are being populated dynamically. One from list (ddlHospital) and other from tool part properties. For dropdown populated from list, we are storing values in
View State.
WebPart is working fine in development environment (single machine) while on production ( 1 front end, 1 index and 1 db server), drop down values disappear after post back. Below is the code.
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
try
if (!Page.IsPostBack)
LoadData();
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(webPart._rotationDetail))
ddlRotation.Items.Add(new ListItem("All", "0"));
int i = 1;
string[] strRotationDetail = webPart._rotationDetail.Split(':');
foreach (string str in strRotationDetail)
ddlRotation.Items.Add(new ListItem(str, i.ToString()));
i++;
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(webPart._onCallTypes))
ddlOnCallType.Items.Add(new ListItem("All", "0"));
int j = 1;
string[] strOnCallTypes = webPart._onCallTypes.Split(':');
foreach (string str in strOnCallTypes)
ddlOnCallType.Items.Add(new ListItem(str, j.ToString()));
j++;
catch (Exception ex)
private void LoadData()
SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
using (SPSite spSite = new SPSite("SITE_URL"))
using (SPWeb spWeb = spSite.OpenWeb())
SPList oList = spWeb.Lists[webPart.destListName];
SPListItemCollection setuplistItems = oList.Items;
if (setuplistItems != null && setuplistItems.Count > 0)
DataTable dtSetupData = setuplistItems.GetDataTable();
if (ViewState["SetupData"] != null)
ViewState.Remove("SetupData");
ViewState.Add("SetupData", dtSetupData);
else
ViewState.Add("SetupData", dtSetupData);
LoadHospitalCombo();
dateControl.SelectedDate = DateTime.Now;
else
// some error message
private void LoadHospitalCombo()
if (ViewState["SetupData"] != null)
DataTable dt = (DataTable)ViewState["SetupData"];
DataView dv = dt.DefaultView;
ddlHospital.Items.Clear();
ddlHospital.DataTextField = "TITLE";
ddlHospital.DataValueField = "TITLE";
ddlHospital.DataSource = dv.ToTable(true, "TITLE");
ddlHospital.DataBind();
ddlHospital.Items.Insert(0, "All");
Any help?

Running your code in try/catch and doing nothing on exception, is not a good idea. Please try to put logging in your code as I believe your code is throwing exception. It's difficult to say seeing such a code what's wrong. Maybe the list doesn't exist or
exists with different name/title, or viewstate is disabled or webpart properties are not populated... there's so many possibilities. Also if possible refactor your code as shown below:
//Your Code, you are loading all items from database and then counting it
SPListItemCollection setuplistItems = oList.Items;
if (setuplistItems != null && setuplistItems.Count > 0)
//Refactored Code
if (oList.ItemCount > 0)

SCAC Field Should have Drop Down Values and ASN should have Storage locatio

Hi ,
We have a requirement while creating ASN in which we have to add SCAC ID in the SCAC field ( Carrier) this SCAC ID comes in Shipping details - We want to have drop down values in this field and also if we dont enter value in this field An Error Message should come like " Maintain SCAC code.
And also the PO's coming from ECC are not carrying Storage location information - Is there a specific config / enhancement to be done.
And in ASN can we have Storage location ?
Thanks,
Mahesh

Hi Mahesh
Regarding adding fields to UI
Refer below links
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e0b0e544-7a06-2d10-539d-f8648358ba67?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true

Not sure how to maintain it as a drop down, a developer could help you easily with that.
Regarding Storage location from PO ECC.
If you are using idocs, the standard SAP xml conversion will not be able to transfer this(if you download standard content)
You can find the field in your IDOC ORDERS05, Data records-Segement-E1EDP01FIELDLGORD
In order to transfer this, you need to rewrite the xml format in integration builder of XI/PI and then add some UI fields in Webui
to show.
But xml PurchaseOrderERPReplenishmentOrderCollaborationNotification as of SAP ECC EHP4 can carry this information in its payload document(SXI_MONITOR---INBOUND MESSAGE ---PAYLOADS) Under the node INVENTORY MANAGED LOCATION
Not sure where this field is mapped to .........
I will let you know once i find........Mean while you can ask any developer who worked on webdynpro .
Yes we can have this field once we find where it is mapping, if you are using idocs then even the XML has to be build in PI
accordingly.

Retrieving the drop down value used in wdr_select_options for default

Hello Experts,
I populated drop down using the method add_parameter_field by using WDR_SELECT_OPTIONS component.
Now my requirement is I need to default the value in some other parameter field based on drop down selection value.But the problem is WDDOMODIFY method is not triggreing while selecting the value from this dropdown for defaulting the value and even there is no method or option in the interface if_wd_select_options for creating an action while selecting the drop down like on slect in our manually creation drop down.
Please let me know if there is any solution for this.
Thanks and Regards,
Venkat

Hi venkatesh,
                The eventhandlet ONENTER of WDR_SELECT_OPTIONS wont work for the drop down and also
                there is no ONSELECT event of drop down in select options.
                So i think there must be some kind of button action.
                As you told you need to default the value of selection screen field based on drop down selection
                why dont you remove that field from selection screen as you can however use the value later
                while executing depending on drop down value.

Drop down list of email addresses missing from "Im...

Hi folks,
BT Yahoo's log in screen had the option of a drop down list of email addresses allowing you to select the one you wanted - this was very handy if you used several email addresses or there was only one PC in the house and various members used it.
In the new improved email, there doesn't appear to have this option - you go into the main account (when you discover how) and the option is still ticked, but has no effect.
I wish BT would remember that "if it ain't broke don't fix it!"
I would be grateful to know if it is possible to still select from a list.
Michael.

Hi ypt,
Yes, BT are moving their email and associated services away from Yahoo! For more information on this please go to www.bt.com/newemail
The new BTemail service and platform will be provided by CP (Critical Path) and existing BT broadband customers will hopefully be migrated to the new email system and platform sometime in the near future once the field trials have been completed.
The BTYahoo login portal has been closed and you can now only login to your emails by the new BT email login portal on the http://www.bt.com website.
