PDF in qualifier fields ?

Hi, all
I have a PDF lookup field in qualified table as a qualifier. When I select it and click 'View PDF..." system doesn't react and when i click 'Edit externally' or 'Save PDF' I get errors like
'Data Table Not Found, Version SP5 (5.5.42.65)' and 'Failed to load image'.
Everything works fine in case of simple lookup PDF field in main table.
Has anyone experiened such behaviour with lookup to PDF table in qualifier field?

Vadim Kalabin

Hi Vadim,
It is expected sometimes that one could need to export some or all of the records of an MDM repository, for example, so that you can distribute subsets of your master data for review and/or editing by different audiences who are not users of the MDM system.
The *Exportcommand* in Record mode allows you to output table records into several different, industry-standard file formats, as summarized in the following table.
For more info visit this URL [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mdm550/helpdata/en/43/de22db05666195e10000000a1553f7/content.htm]
Now, a qualified table in MDM stores a set of lookup records, and also supports qualifiers, subfields that apply not to the qualified table record by itself, but rather to each association of a qualified table record with a main table record. MDM supports multiple simultaneous qualified tables.
For value mapping from PDF as qualifier you can find some relevent information on this URL [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mdm550/helpdata/en/43/2a977eec3d0b1fe10000000a1553f6/content.htm]

Error while inserting value Qualified field in the main table

Hello,
I am trying to populate Qualified field in the main table when a new record is inserted in the Products Repository.
The field is Reference Price and its a qualified lookup field. I am using the below code to create qualified lookup value and create qualified link values.
QualifiedLookupValue qlvRefPrice = new QualifiedLookupValue();
TableId qltabid = repSchema.getTableId("ReferencePrices");
FieldId qlfieldid = repSchema.getFieldId("ReferencePrices","RP_ReferncePrices");
RecordId rdRefPrice = getRecordId(connPool,session,"RP",qlfieldid,qltabid);
HashMap map = new HashMap();
map.put(repSchema.getFieldId("ReferencePrices","StartDate_ReferencePrice"),new DateTimeValue(cal));
map.put(repSchema.getFieldId("ReferencePrices","EndDate_ReferencePrice"),new DateTimeValue(cal));
map.put(repSchema.getFieldId("ReferencePrices","ListPrice"),new FloatValue(Float.parseFloat("123.3")));
map.put(repSchema.getFieldId("ReferencePrices","Currency"),new LookupValue(getLookupRecordId(connPool,session,"Currencies","Currency_Currencies","EUR")));
QualifiedLinkValue qlvLinkValue = MdmValueFactory.createQualifiedLinkValue(rdRefPrice,map);
qlvRefPrice.addValue(qlvLinkValue);
emptyRecord.setFieldValue(fieldIdRefPriceHistory,qlvRefPrice);
However when the createrecord command is executed I get the following error.

I spoke to my MDM team and they say there is no validation which they have put for Reference Price field. I have tried inserting values in another field of type qualified lookup in the same main table and that works without any issue.
The code is as below:
QualifiedLookupValue qlvRating = new QualifiedLookupValue();
TableId qlvtable = repSchema.getTableId("ProductRatings");
FieldId qlvratinglink = repSchema.getFieldId("ProductRatings","RatingLink");
RecordId rdidPR = getRecordId(connPool,session,"CI",qlvratinglink,qlvtable);
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("rdidPR "+rdidPR);
HashMap mapPR = new HashMap();
mapPR.put(repSchema.getFieldId("ProductRatings","AvailRating"),new LookupValue(getLookupRecordId(connPool,session,"AvailabilityRatings","AvailabilityRating_AvailabilityRatings","CI")));
mapPR.put(repSchema.getFieldId("ProductRatings","EffectiveDate"),new DateTimeValue(cal));
mapPR.put(repSchema.getFieldId("ProductRatings","FERAIndic"),new LookupValue(getLookupRecordId(connPool,session,"ReplacementIndicators","Code","FE")));
mapPR.put(repSchema.getFieldId("ProductRatings","FERAOrdItem"),new LookupValue(getLookupRecordId(connPool,session,"ReplProducts","ProdID","100008200")));
QualifiedLinkValue qlvLink = MdmValueFactory.createQualifiedLinkValue(rdidPR,mapPR);
qlvRating.addValue(qlvLink);
emptyRecord.setFieldValue(fieldIdRatingHistory,qlvRating);
I would really appreciate if someone can help in solving the issue.
Thanks in advance,
Aamod

Hi Aamod,
Sees that some validation/assignments are getting triggered as soon as you make changes to the record in MDM. Please check once after removing validations/workflow that you may have. This way you may debug the issue.
Hope this helps!!

Combining PDF Form causes fields to disappar, Acrobat to crash when trying to edit combined PDF

I have a 10 page PDF form that I can edit normally. I combine it using the Combine Files wizard. The resulting PDF has several fields disappear upon saving, and causes Acrobat to crash every time if I try to edit the form. I can combine the original PDF form with no other document, and the error still occurs. I have several similarly named fields, such as Name#1 and Name#2, and it seems that all those fields disappear after going through the Combine Files process. I can open the resulting PDF, and fill in the remaining fields, but attempting to edit the form causes Acrobat to crash each and every time.
I have used this process before, with no problems, but it fails every time on this form.
This is the error in the Event Viewer: Faulting application Acrobat.exe, version 10.0.0.396, time stamp 0x4cc5ebc0, faulting module AcroForm.api, version 10.0.0.396, time stamp 0x4cc5f5cc, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x0012d905
This is using Acrobat X Standard and Pro on XP Pro and Vista.
If I open the original PDF, and insert a new PDF as new pages, that works fine.
I updated Acrobat to the latest patch, problem remains. I don't know how to resolve this.

Did a little more testing and this is what I found. If I use the "Insert from file" feature to combine a cover sheet plus 3 AcroForms (inserting each file one by one), eveyrthing appears to work. However, if I use the "Combine via Acrobat" feature I run into the issue of fields disappearing once combined.
I shoudl also add that perhaps the issue had something to do with the fact that I initally produced the cover page pdf via Photoshop "save as PDF". Perhaps that contirbutted to the structure issue despite it being a PDF...maybe under the hood things are structured differently. Who knows.
Just FYI for others: What appears to be working is using the "Insert from file" option vs "Combing via Acrobat". Also, if you are including a non-AcroForm PDF, be sure it a traditional vs. saving as a PDF from Photoshop.
Alot of this may be a fluke, but it seems to fix my issue - for now.

Pdf form with fields ppl can type into

I have a pdf form with fields that are not able to be typed in. How can I edit them so that ppl can type into the field?

Hi courtneyp58664902,
I would recommend you to follow the steps detailed on the page associated with this link (http://wwwimages.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/acrobat/pdfs/adobe-acrobat-xi-con vert-forms-into-fillable-pdf-c… ).
I would recommend you to Save the pdf with reader rights enabled [ File -> 'Save as other' -> 'Reader extender PDF' -> 'Enable More tools ( includes form fill-in and save)' ].
Please let me know if you face any challenges or need any further assistance.

How to search for a qualifier field?

Hello Experts,
I have a field of type Lookup[qualified flat] in the MDM main table. The lookup table has 5-6 fields, some are qualifier and some are non-qualifier. I want to perform a search which is combination of qualifier as well as non-qualifier fields of the lookup table.
For non-qualifier I have used FieldSearchDimension for non-qualifier field and QualifierSearchDimension for qualifier filed. But I am not getting the expected result. Could you please help.
Pictorially the scenarion is like:
MDM Main Table-> Field X(lookup[qualified flat])
Field X - Sub Field X1[qualifier - no]
- Sub Field X2[qualifier - yes]
Search criteria : Combination of Sub field X1 and sub field X2.
Thanks in anticipation!
Rakesh

Hi Rakesh,
Adopt a drill down mechanism while using a Qualified lookup search.
In Datamanager, search parameters for a qualified lookup table appear as 3 distinct boxes - one below the other -
Box 1 : Look ups in Non qualifiers and their values
Box 2 : Qualified field : Displays all the valid Qualified field values that exist for a main table record.
Box 3: Qualifiers and their Values.
In your case, Sub Field X1( Non Qualifier) will appear in Box 1 ; Sub Field X2 (qualifier) will appear in Box3.
To achieve the expected search you want follw the below steps in seq :
1. Select Sub Field X1( Non Qualifier) in Box 1 and then select its lookup value.
2. Select Sub Field X2 (qualifier) in Box3 and then select its lookup value.
You will have your combination search results visible. To cross check the selection you have made, select 'Search Selections' tab and verify.

Vinay

Field level trigger on qualifier field

Hello,
Here is my scenario.
I have a qualified field : ACTIVE FLAG in address qualified table.
What i want to do is if the value of this field changes to N (possible values of this field : Blank,Y and N),i want my workflow to trigger.
I know its possible with field trigger option where you create one time stamp field and will give the field you want to comare
but in case of qualified tables you can not select qualifier as a selected field for timestamp field.you can only select non qualifiers.
is there any other way this can be achieved?
thanks
Bindi

SharePoint doesn't provide field level permissions. Fellow MVP Dan Holme has a good article that recommends some approaches on this here:
http://sharepointpromag.com/blog/3-approaches-restricting-access-sharepoint-columns-and-metadata
Another approach you could take is to make the form an InfoPath form from in an InfoPath LIBRARY instead. This way you can control the form fields and prevent users from directly editing fields. It also plays really well with workflow.
I trust that answers your question...
Thanks

Error in importing qualified field values

Hi,
I have a query related to importing qualified tables. At the source side, the main fields and qualified table fields are given in 2 different sheets of Excel, joined by the product ID. While importing the qualified tables, I am only able to import non qualified field values in data manager and rests of the qualified field values are not getting imported. Following are the steps I have followed:
 Map Non Qualified fields (Source: Qualified table; Destination: Qualified table)
 Import Non Qualified fields
 Map Non Qualified fields (Source: Qualified table; Destination: Main Table)
 Create compound key and map with the destination field.
 Map qualified fields (Source: Qualified table; Destination: Main table)
o Match records and Import. (No fields are coming up in the Match records pane (Error))
Pls let me know the solution to rectify the error.

Hi Vishal,
You cannot have your Qualified table (Non -qualifier and Qualifier)details in a separate excel sheet and the Main table fields in a separate sheet.As the Qualifiers are part of the main record only and besides whenever you import data in the qualified tabel itself by selecting the qualified table as the destination table ,you will be able to map only the non-qulaifiers as the Qualifiers are only visible under the main table destination.
So you can create your source in two ways
- All the non-qualifiers of the qualified table in a separate excel and all the main table fields along with the Qualifiers in a separate sheet.
- All the fields in a single sheet ,as you can select the same source when you want to import the qualified table as well as the main table.
You can import the Qualified tabel records either before or after the main table importing as mentioned in the above post.
kindly follow the below link to understand qualified table importing:
Taming the animal - Qualified Tables
- When you are importing data (non qualifiers) in the qualified table you can select any one or combination of the non qualifiers as the matching fields
- When you are importing the main table you need to map the qualifiers as well as the main table fields.You need to select the primary key field of the main table as the matching field.
- The link is established between the qualifiers and the non qualifiers in the main table mapping.
- You will able to see the same in the qualified tab in data manager
Hope it helped
Thanks & Regards

Shown PDF loses Form Fields

Hi
Perhaps someone could please help me
I have a PDF that is built from 3 seperate PDF's into 1. Each PDF has form fields that are filled with data by my software, then the resulting PDF is saved to a temporary PDF. When I load that PDF into Adobe Reader, the first page is displayed fine, but pages 2 onwards lose all form field values. However, when I load this PDF into other PDF Viewing software, the PDF looks perfect.
Can anyone perhaps help with anyideas
Thanks

My guess is that the problem is not the filling but the combining. Combining PDF files containing forms requires special processing, and your software is not doing it. If you consult ISO 32000-1 you will see that form fields need to be included in two places: the Annots dictionary for the page they appear on, and all together in ther per-document AcroForms dictionary.
In your example the AcroForms dictionary contains only the fields from the first page; when other PDFs were added their AcroForm was simply ignored. We now have two pages with form fields which don't conform to spec, so it isn't surprising that there are differences among software. Acrobat has the most sophisticated form handling, and it may be the most sensitive to errors.

When combining multiple PDF's, the field properties change

When combining multiple PDF's, the field properties for the Font and/or the "Scroll long text" checkbox change settings. What is causing this to happen?

Thank you for the prompt reply. I do indeed have the same field name across multiple files, but they are all set the same in their individual files.

Fully Qualified Field

I have a question about JDBC drivers. I am trying to access a field from a query row using the fully qualified field name. That is, I'm tring to use the <table-name>.<field-name> naming convention. For example:
 SELECT EMPLOYEE.NAME FROM EMPLOYEE ;
The fully qualified name would be EMPLOYEE.NAME. Most SQL servers understand this. I've found that there are JDBC drivers out there that cannot retrieve the field using this fully qualified name:
 rs.getString("EMPLOYEE.NAME") ;
The above statement may throw an exception on one driver and return null for another. I've modified a driver to allow this naming convention, but I'm worried that it's not part of the actual JDBC specification. Is this true?
On the other hand, field alias seems to work:
 SELECT EMPLOYEE.NAME EMPLOYEE_NAME FROM EMPLOYEE ;
 rs.getString("EMPLOYEE_NAME") ;
Most drivers allow this. Although I have seen a few that don't. I can live with having to give a field alias. Should I leave it at that?
Anthony

The issue is the the column name in the returned resultset is not the fully qualified column name. The resultset only returns the column name without the tablename prefix. Even if you have a statment like the following:
select Request.RequestID, RequestStatus.RequestID from Request, RequestStatus
The resultset returned will have two columns named RequestID.
An alternative is to retrieve the resultset using the column number from the resultset( ie. var = rset.getString(1)).

Populating data of a No Qualifier Field

Hi All,
I have 3-4 fields as Yes Qualifiers in my Qualified Table. I want to merge the data of these fields into a single No Qualifier field of the same table so that I can see that data in Matching Mode while merging of two records as I can not see the data of Yes qualifiers in matching mode.

hi,
1. in the console, in the qualified table, create one ( NO qualifier multivalued) filed.
2. When you are importing qualified table, use partitions to concatenate required YES qualifiers, it will create one concatenated multivalued field. Those concatenated fields separated by delimeters.
3. Map source multivalued field to the Destination No qualifier multivalued field.
4.Do the import, and you can see the concatenated fields in the match mode, when ever you are doing merging of two records.
hope this may help you,
Regards

Qualifier Field Not Shown in Qualified Table

Hi All,
Can anybody tell me why the values of qualifier fields are not shown in the qualified tables? And where are those qualifier values stored, in the main table or in the qualified table itself?
Best Regards
Jerome

Hi Jerome,
Before starting, I am assuming there is no confusion relating to Qualifiers & Non-Qualifiers.
Non-Qualifiers --> Decidors/Fields whose value changes
Qualifiers --> Fields which get decided/whose value changes based on the Non-Qualifers.
You said - "Can anybody tell me why the values of qualifier fields are not shown in the qualified tables? "
1. )What I understood from your question is that; when you select your Qualified Table in the Record Mode of the Data Manager, the qualifiers appear to be locked/non-editable. Is that right?
All the qualifiers are locked because they have no context in the Qualified table.
For e.g.: If your Qualified table is "Addresses" consisting of
Non-Qualifiers --> Address Type(say Home(can be more than 1), Office,etc)
Qualifiers --> HouseNo,Street, City, Country,etc.
What would it mean if we put the street name "XYZ Street" for the record selected. Nothing -- the street must be connected to a main table record, a Customer(Cust_Id) and and an address-type(Home) to have meaning.
2.) If the above interpretation of your Q is not correct, then 2nd case could be --> when you select your main table in DM (Record Mode)and try to add a Qualified Lookup value to a record you are unable to see the qualifiers. Right?
In the main table Double-click on the quailfied lookup field. An screen pops-up. Here we see the available lookup records -- these are in fact the records we saw when we switched to view the Addresses qualified lookup fields, which means these are the values stored in the non-qualifiers. You have to select & add them (Selected Lookup Records). The qualifiers become enabled. Now you an add values to them.
You can either use an existing Address type or add a record to the Qualified-Lookup Table from here. We can add and remove types of addresses -- a main table record may have any number of any type of address. When we add a type, for example "Favourite Restaurant Address"(say), we can enter information for the qualifiers, those field which make sense only when connected to a main table record and a non-qualifier. If we add two "Home" addresses each can have it's own values for the City, Street, Country, State and Postal Code qualifier fields
To answer 2nd part of your Q - "And where are those qualifier values stored, in the main table or in the qualified table itself?"
Qualifiers are database subfields that apply not to the qualified table record by itself, but rather to each association of a qualified table record with a main table record.
Hope this helped your cause. Please mark helpful answers.
Regards,
Siddharth Sharma.
