Planning form , column formula not adding correctly.

Hi all,
I have a small issue with a planning form. I have two columns
Column1 - Decendants of Units
Column2 - Formula column, sum of col1 (sum of units)
Figures are entered as percentages. I have a validation rule for Column 2 such that if the sum isn't 1 (adding percentages so it's 1 and not 100) then cell colour should be red.
Issue appears if I enter .1 for 10 units, I get an error and for some reason the value of column 2 is .9999999999999 instead of 1.
If I enter .5 for two units, it's fine.
If I enter .5 , .3, .1,.1 it's fine
If I enter .3,.3,.3,.1, it's fine
If I enter .1,.1,.1,.1,.1,.1,.1,.1,.1,.2 the result is 1.1 which is correct.
Not sure why is this issue happening.

Hi
I had logged something similar on here a little while back.
Webform "Validation" column issue
Something to do with 'floating point decimal errors'.....I realise this doesnt help much as the solution was the same, but it might give you a place to start if you wanted to embark on the tiresome odyssey of Googling.

Sometimes JavaFX form (BorderPane) does not show correctly

We have a problem with a JavaFX application running on Java 7. Sometimes a form (BorderPane) does not show correctly – it seems to be transparent (i.e. content previously shown at the same place is still visible). Controls seem to be present and respond to events – e.g. we can close the form by blindly clicking the appropriate button. Once the issue happens it is persistent, i.e. next time we open the form, it behaves the same.
We have no reproducible scenario leading to the issue. It just happens here and there – we have not been able to identify any pattern yet.
Additional information:
the form (BorderPane) is loaded during application start-up but it is not shown initially,
to show the form we remove previous contents from a StackPane and add the form instead,
to hide the form we do the reverse.
Do you have any ideas how to diagnose the problem? Where to look first? What kind of diagnostic code could we put in the application that would help us?

I am unaware of any such issue being reported previously.
Without a reproducible test case, you are unlikely to get much assistance.
Other than the creation of a minimal test case which reproduces the issue, I could not even advise how you might go about diagnosing and fixing your issue.
There were many bug fixes implemented for Java 8.
I advise you to upgrade your test environment to the latest Java early access release (currently Java 8u40) and test to verify if your issue replicates in that version.
If the issue still reproduces, create a bug report which includes your test case and full environment details.

Aligned Form Fields Do Not Display Correctly Where Visible Borders Overlap?

I'm on creating some forms & checklists for the company I work for to simplify our project workflow. When adding text fields to the form I'd like to add borders to segregate the various fields & make the form more presentable.
The problem I'm having, is that I'm unable to place fields immediately adjacent one another without leaving a gap. If I do & use the snap to grid option, aligning the top of one field with bottom of another, it does not display correctly when printed. The border lines appear to have differing thicknesses where they touch & this makes the form look terrible. Currently I'm having to create the borders in an excel spreadsheet, convert to pdf & add borderless fields within the pre printed borders. While this gives me the look i want, if I later want to add to or amend the form I have to start from scratch first modifying the initial excel layout which is too time consuming. I'm using Acrobat X Pro. Any assistance appreciated.
Regards
John

There are at least two techniques to allow you to change the underlying layout and remake the static part of the PDF, without having to redo the form fields (except new ones, and moving as needed).
That is replace pages and copy-paste of form fields.

Printing "Form Fields Only" not working correctly in Adobe XI

I have a pdf form with fields including check boxes. If I print this form with all fields it prints correctly, but if I select "Form Fields Only" then all check boxes print as checked regardless of whether or not they are checked. When I use this form in earlier versions of Adobe I do not get this problem. Any ideas or solutions?

Also the "PrintParams" properties require version 6 or above of Acrobat/Reader.
One has to review the Acrobat JavaScript API for all sorts of version variations in the way Acrobat's JS object works. And the documention is not always correct.

SharePont 2013 Document Library lookup Column Properties not Showing Correctly when editing in Word

Hi
I keep seeing this issue albeit intermittently. I have set up a doc library for my users which has a custom content type (lookup, metadata columns, etc) . They all appear perfectly most of the time except the lookup column. Sometimes is just
decides to display the title field of the current library and not the lookup list title . It is weird as it has been working perfectly for ages given the library is populated with valid documents.
There are some fixes listed here. Has anyone got any experience of this?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that the lookup column not display well while editing in word.
Did you customize the Document Information Panel?
I recommend you edit your custom document information panel or create a new document information panel, then re-publish it to check whether it works.

Or you can also use the methods in the post you have pasted to check whether it works.
As the limitation of the environment, we could not reproduce the issue in our environment.
I would suggest you open a case to Microsoft Customer Service via Phone.

APO Demand plan monthly data is not assigned correctly after replication to HANA

Hi All,
We are replicating the APO live-cache toHANA using a APO Data Replication Model. Replication of Planning Data - SAP HANA Live for SAP SCM -
Replication of the Planning Book to HANA is working for weekly data. Weeks in HANA reconcile correctly back to the APO Planning Book. However months are not being correctly assigned to the data. All data for each week is being assigned to only one month in HANA.
When tested by extraction to a BW cube/DSO first then DSO replicated to HANA the data is correctly assigned to months and weeks. There is something different which is happening in the replication of the APO Replication Model that is not correctly assigning the months.
Has anyone had this problem before?
Thanks,
Steve.

Reading that, it has not improved and its May 2014.

Oracle ADF Form Data was Not adding to DB.

I have Created a Query Based VO(I have given Updatable:Always and i ahve checked in source that IsUpdateable="true"),and added that to AM,I Have created a ADF Form with CreateInsert Operation,When Click on CreateInsert Button It was creating an empty form,
After Entering the Date into that empty field, when i click on Commit button Data is Not Saving into DB.
After that,
I have Creted a Readonly Table With Same Iterator,When i click on "Commit" it was sowing that data is adding to the New Row in that Readonly Table,But when i was checking in DB ,The Data was not adding to DB
i am useing 11.1.2.3.0 version jdeveloper.
Any Help is appreciable.....
Edited by: Rajashekar Thippireddy on Feb 4, 2013 8:47 AM

You are conceptually wrong. A query-based VO does not insert/update/delete any data to DB. You must create an entity-based VO if you want to insert/update/delete data to DB.
When you issue a commit operation on an AM, it looks for created/modified/removed Entity objects and then performs the corresponding DML operations on DB. (In fact, DML operations are performed by Entity objects. If there are no Entity objects, then there are no DML operations). If your VO is not entity-based (but query-based), then you do not have any created/modified/removed ADF entities, so there is noting to flush to DB.
The "Updateable" property of the VO attributes controls whether the VO should allow data entry/modification of these attributes in memory. You can have non-entity based attributes that are marked as "updateable" (for example, transient attributes storing temporary values in memory) but it does not mean that these attributes are going to be flushed to DB.
You have seen data in the read-only table, because it is based on the same VO and it displays the newly-created row which is in memory.

JPanel not added correctly

Hi
When the following code is invoked upon an item in a combo box being selected for the first time the gPSX_JPanel is removed but sSVI_JPanel is not added until I click anywhere on the application. After this the code works fine.
Can anyone suggest why?
Thanks
public void wasteWaterModel_JComboBox(ActionEvent e){
      if(wasteWaterModel_JComboBox.getSelectedItem().equals("SSVI"))
         tank_JPanels[2].remove(gPSX_JPanel);
         tank_JPanels[2].repaint();
         tank_JPanels[2].add(sSVI_JPanel);
         tank_JPanels[2].repaint();
}

Hi
I have tried this:
public void WasteWaterModel_JComboBox(ActionEvent e){
      if(WasteWaterModel_JComboBox.getSelectedItem().equals("SSVI"))
         Tank_JPanels[2].remove(GPSX_JPanel);
         Tank_JPanels[2].repaint();
         Tank_JPanels[2].add(SSVI_JPanel);
         Tank_JPanels[2].repaint();
         System.out.println("THIS WORKED");
}and 'THIS WORKED' always gets printed. When I first select the item SSVI in the combo box then GPSX_JPanel is removed so part of it seems to work. I just can't work out why SSVI_JPanel is not added until I click anywhere on the application.

Why are my formulas not copying correctly?

Hello,
I am new to numbers and spreadsheets, i have been watching videos and reading tutorials all over the place and so far so good, but i ran into two problems i cannot solve, and i culdnt find the answer anywhere.
1- I created a simple sheet i need to convert the price in USD of some articles to its equivalent in other currencyes, so in this sheet there are 2 tables, one is very small (one row and one column) and is only for entering the current exchange rate. The other table contains the articles, its price in USD and in the column that follows i need it to do a simple multiply formula where it takes the value from the column with the prices in USD X The current exchange rate that is in the other table. I used =B?Xexchangerate and it works, the problem is that when i want to drag that formula to the whole column using the yellow dot it changes the formula and creates an error, sometimes it copys correctly for 2 to 3 rows and then it changes it. I created a sample sheet to show you the issue: What am i doing wrong? also if i copy the formula, then select multiple rows and paste it it produces the same error.
2- Using the same example as above, is there a way to make that if i add a new row it automaticaly fills it with the formulas of the previous rows?
Please excuse my grammar errors, (i am not native).
Thanks you a lot in advance!

There are different ways to create references to cells. Each copy/pastes differently.
In the first screenshot, if you fill down with the formula, in the next row it will become Price in USD Camera x Exchange Rate::B3. Because there is no Exchange Rate::B3, it is an invalid reference.
In the formula, change it to Exchange Rate::B$2 then it will fill down correctly
The $ says to keep the "2" constant. If you had made it $B2 it would say to keep the "B" constant. $B$2 says to keep the "B" and the "2" constant.

11.1.2 FR Column formula not working for rows other than first

Hi All,
I've a FR Grid with following layout
Columns: Budget, Forecast, Var(Var being a formula col with the formula COL[A]- COL)
Rows: Children of Total_Cost_Centre, Children of Total_Projects, ACC.10101
Suppress MISSING on for row
When i run the report, the rows show the valid combinations having data but the VAR column shows value only for the first combination while for rest of the rows it shows 0.
The row selection is in one row only, not separate rows so there is no specific setting that could create the difference in results.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Abhishek

HTML form in iview not displaying correctly

Hi
I have made a KM document iView and in that I have called a HTML page.
The problem is that the margins in the iView are too much and due to this the content is shrinked in between.
When I open the page in new window then it is correctly displayed but shrinks in portal content area.
Kindly suggest how to have the contents displayed in the same way as in the HTML file.
Regards
nitin

Hi
Outlook 2007 or newer use Microsoft Word for their HTML engine.
You can refer this page http://www.campaignmonitor.com/css/ shows
many things that do not work in different clients.I think Someone needs to re-code
the HTML form to make it work in the current versions of Outlook. You can try formatting with text and HTML and see the results.

Tabular form LOV's not populating correctly on edit from report

My form has four LOV's and several text fields. Two of the LOV's will not populate (contains null value) from the report when i try to edit the row, however the other two Lov's populate correctly. Any ideas why i can't get the lov's to populate with the correct value from the report?
each LOV is set to display null value as -- choose value -- with no return value. when i click edit from the report the form (page 2) comes up with the corresponding values from the report, but as i stated two of the LOV's contain -- choose value -- instead of the correct value from the corresponding reports row. All four LOV's items are set exactly the same 2 being static and 2 dynamic; one of each not populating right.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi
I've not used popup lovs in tabular forms for a few years now, but if your using the apex_item's to generate your tab form then I think you need to allow an idx number for the pass back value. e.g. (I have left idx value 2 for the pass back value)
SELECT
APEX_ITEM.POPUPKEY_FROM_LOV (1,deptno,'DEPT') dt,
APEX_HIDDEN(3, EMPNO) en
FROM emp
I hope that helps

Planning Level/Package names not displaying correctly in BPS0 (BI7)

We have just upgraded our BW system from 3.5 to BI7. We are running SEM 3.5.
We now seem to have a display issue with the titles of some planning levels and packages within BPS0.
On some planning level/package lines the display in the left hand pane of BPS0 is truncated with only a partial description, even though the full description is displayed in the right hand pane. This is not consistent, as other levels and packages are displayed correctly. It is not truncating at the same place in all instances.
I have tried to delete the description and re-input it again, but the problem persists.
Similar display issues occur in UPSPL in a seemingly random fashion.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Many thanks
Barry

Hi
Have just found out what is happening and the solution....but no nearer to knowing why.
The display problem occurs in descriptions of planning levels and packages in BPS0 and in UPSPL & UPSPM. Also when viewing global planning sequences.
The cause is the use of "&" in a description text. When this character is removed and replaced with another, eg "+", then the descriptions display correctly.
I wonder if this is to do with "&" being a special character, which I believe XML doesn't handle too well?
Anyway, I can now change the descriptive text and the problem goes away.

Filter base on Person or Group column does not work correctly in sharepoint 2013

I have a list that contain "Person or Group"column that set "Allow Multiple Selections" to yes.
In sharepoint 2010 I create view and filter it base on this person or group column equal to [Me]. And it's work correctly.
Now in sharepoint 2013 when I filter view, base on this person or group column equal to [Me], it does not show me any items, although list has data that person or group column set to me.
What's wrong?
Thanks.

If you want to filter the list view when current user is in the group, then I recommend to use theMembership comparator in the
query and add it to the view page in SharePoint Designer:
<Where><Or><Membership Type="CurrentUserGroups"><FieldRef Name="AssignedTo"/></Membership><Eq><FieldRef Name="AssignedTo"/><Value Type="Integer"><UserID Type="Integer"/></Value></Eq></Or></Where>

Acrobat Fillable Form -Reader Enable Not Working Correctly

I have a form that has been used and modified a number of times that is accessed from an intranet. I am trying to make it Reader enabled, (All user have Reader X installed). I enabled, and infact if I try to Enable Usage Rights I get the error dialog box that says. "This document already has enabled usage rights in Adobe Reader. To remove Reader Enablement, use File > Save a Copy" However, I go to a PC with Reader installed and try to open the file I get the following error in the lavendar bar at the top - "Fill out the following ofr. You cannot save data typed into this form..." So the Reader Enablement isn't carrying over in the form when reviewed from the Intranet .
When I just attach a copy of the form and send it to someone with Reader only it appears with the following error message: "This document enabled extended features in Acrobat Reader. The document has been changed since it was created and use of extended features is no longer available. Please contact the author for the original version of this document." It was sent after I added the enabled fields and was not edited or saved again although it was opened in Acrobat X Pro.
Does anyone have suggestionsn on what miay be the problem? What can I do to solve the problem, etc. Do I need to totally recreate the form? Thanks, Judy

Judy,
The document got corrupted somehow. When I tried to validate the usage rights it reported an error.
What I would do is start with a fresh copy of the underlying PDF and copy the fields from the current form (not the Reader-enabled version, but a copy that's not Reader-enabled) and create a new form.
I'd urge you to generate a new underlying PDF from the source document and make sure that all of the fonts are embedded. TimesNewRoman (regular, bold, italic) is used an number of times, but not for any visible character, and is not embedded. ArialMT (regular, bold-italic) is also not embedded. If you can remove the TimesNewRoman non-printing things so it's not even included in the PDF, that would be better. Look for things like paragraph markers, blanks, etc., that use it. I'm not sure how it got corrupted, but fonts have been implicated in the past (with respect to Reader-enabled documents at least), so it's best to use only what's needed and to embed all fonts.
