PLD Document Configuration Template
Hi All,
Can anyone please let me share any of the PLD Document Configuration Templates. This is for requirement documentation. Based on this we would like to design the SBO outputs for all the marketing and other documents. Any help would be of great value.
Thanks & Regards

Unable to see SAP BusinessObjects Document Viewer template in 7.4 portal
Hello Experts,
We are looking to integrate dashboards created with BOBJ design studio into enterprise portal (NW 7.4). We have followed the steps mentioned in the blog Integration of BOBJ with SAP Portal.
Namely:
1. Taken the com.sap.businessobjects.iviews.par and com.sap.businessobjects.iviews.templates.epa files from the BI server
2. Imported the EPA file into the portal
3. Converted the com.sap.businessobjects.iviews.par file into EAR file and deployed it into the portal
4. Created System alias for the BI system
5. Configured SSO between portal and the BI server
After doing these steps when trying to create the Business Objects iView we are unable to see the SAP BusinessObjects Document Viewer template in the portal. Can anyone let me know if we have missed some additional configuration that has to be done?
Regards,
SaurabhHi Experts,
Issue has been resolved. After importing the EPA file into the portal, we missed out restarting the portal. Once this was done I am now able to find the SAP BusinessObjects Document List and SAP BusinessObjects Document Viewer templates in the iView creation wizard.

Configuration Template Builder WL8.1 does not work
Hello,
After spending nearly 2 days now trying to get a Configuration Template
built, I've concluded this simply does not work. Has anyone used the
Config Template builder to package a semi-complex application on top of WLI?
I'm trying to have 2 of my applications, the JMS and JDBC resources,
and a WLI event generator packaged up for easy deployment to someone
else's server configuration. The problem with this is that there are
required resources for WLI, namely a database. The Pointbase database
included for WLI does not get included in the template automatically.
There are also some flat-out bugs:
If you choose to include a resource adapter "application", such as
jms-xa-adp.rar, the template builder does not bundle this in the
template and deploy it correctly. The template builder restricts you to
putting applications in the relative path starting at ./
For jms-xa-adp.rar, its original location is in $WL_HOME/server/lib, and
the template builder defaults to put it in ./lib of your template.
However, when you create a domain with the template, jms-xa-adp.rar does
not get placed in your ./lib directory. This causes you to then go and
manually edit your config.xml to point back at $WL_HOME/server/lib or to
manually copy jms-xa-adp.rar into your ./lib directory (which the
template mechanism should do for you).
Relative paths in the config.xml file require you to execute the config
builder from the directory of the domain you are making a template for.
The template builder should instead be smart enough to realize that
relative paths in the config.xml file are relative to the directory that
the config.xml is in, not the one you are running the template builder
from. You'll get an error when trying to create the template cause it
won't find the resources if you're not in that directory.
If anyone has successfully used this to package a WLI application in a
template, please share your experiences and how to do so. In the
meantime, I'm claiming there is no way to nicely package up a server
configuration for a WLI app in Weblogic, and this is a big shortcoming.
Weblogic needs a simple transferrable way of creating server
configurations (it tries to do this with the template, but that is
failing). With JBoss, for example, you simply copy your server directory
into another installation. This doesn't work with Weblogic unfortunately
because it puts hard-coded paths in the config.xml file.
ThanksRuss,
Thank you for the detailed responses. The only one I'm currently
struggling with still is the #5, with the scripts between the two. One
of the major benefits of using a J2EE App Server is supposed to be the
portability between servers. I find it disconcerting that BEA Weblogic
restricts me to the platform I created the domain on by creating
platform-specific startup/shutdown scripts for only the platform created
on. It's understandable that a script converter would be difficult, but
at least both the .sh/.cmd files should be created from the first time
you make a domain. If the user only wants one or the other, they can
delete the appropriate one. It's also understandable that the
users/deployers shouldn't have to manually convert a startup/shutdown
script to take the domain to a different box.
JBoss clearly has BEA beat on ease of deployment here. Their model is
the concept I'm thinking of: you have some generic startup/shutdown
scripts that can load a platform-independent server configuration. You
truly can copy directories as-is between JBoss installations.
I was hoping to package up a server domain for use on any of the
supported platforms, but since I don't have the time to manually convert
the startup/shutdown scripts, I'm going to have to tell people it's only
for Solaris now.
Hopefully BEA can fix this in a future SP. There's no need for this
platform-dependency. Also, if the Windows version can generate both
scripts at creation time, then the Solaris should be able to do this as
well (or at least give you the option).
Thanks again for the replies

Hi Steven,
I have several comments and questions about your last two posts. I will try to
address them in order.
1) "The Pointbase database included for WLI does not get included in the template
automatically."
By default the template builder only includes the *.cmd and *.sh files in the
template from your domain directory. If you begin building with an existing
domain template all files that were in the template will get included. This was
done because there is no way for the builder to automatically determine all the
files that are required by your template/domain and we steered away from recursively
including all files from the directory so that unused files were not needlessly
included. We can extrapolate some files based on the application paths in the
config.xml, but the rest is left up to the template builder to be aware of what
is needed for their domain to run. So, if you need the Pointbase *.dbn and *.wal
files included in your template just select these files on the ?Add Files? panel
of the template builder and add them to the ?Domain Directory?.
2) ?If you choose to include a resource adapter "application", such as jms-xa-adp.rar,
the template builder does not bundle this in the template and deploy it correctly.?
The template builder considers application files to be in two categories: Imported
or Internal. When you are at the ?Add Applications? panel of the builder you
will see a checklist of all the applications that are in the domain you selected.
On the right hand side there are two text fields. The top one displays the application
path as it is currently set in the config.xml of that domain. The bottom field
will be different depending on what category the application falls into. As you
click on each application in the list, you may notice that the bottom field may
change from an editable field titled ?Imported Application Path? to a non-editable
field titled ?Internal Application Path?. The difference between the two categories
is that an ?Imported? application?s files will be included in the template jar.
An ?Internal? application?s files will not be included in the template jar because
they are considered internal to the weblogic installation. The jms-xa-adp.rar
should fall into the internal category and should not get included in your template.
From what you are describing it sounds like the builder attempted to import that
application when it should not have. In an attempt to recreate the problem you
are seeing I deployed that Connector Module through the WLS console and ended
up with an application path of ?C:\bea\weblogic81\server\lib? where ?C:\bea\weblogic81?
is my WL_HOME (a.k.a. USER_INSTALL_DIR). If I then attempt to build a template
from this domain, the builder recognizes this as an internal path and does not
include it inside my template. If the current application path you had looks
different from the one above, that may explain why the builder was attempting
to import it. What was the value of the ?Current Application Path? for that application
deployment?
3) ?Relative paths in the config.xml file require you to execute the config builder
from the directory of the domain you are making a template for.?
The builder is ?smart? enough to determine relative paths. You should not have
to invoke it from the domain directory you are working with. There is a known
bug in the WebLogic Platform 8.1.1.0 release of the template builder that will
cause it to not find files with relative paths in your domain directory if the
application path in the config.xml is just a ?.?. If this is the case, you should
see a FileNotFoundException when you attempt to create the template. This will
be fixed in SP2 and you can work around this problem by changing those paths to
?./? instead. If this was not the case, what was the path the wizard choked
on?
4) ?Looking through the config file, it seems that it's all of the WLI components
that have absolute paths in the config file. In addition, BEA_WLS_DBMS_ADK has
an absolute path, not sure if that is WLI or WLS. ?
BEA_WLS_DBMS_ADK is an integration application. If you created the original
domain using the configuration wizard most of the applications in an integration
enabled domain will reference paths inside of you installation directory or ?internal?
paths. For instance, I used the wizard to create a ?Basic WebLogic Integration
Domain?. The path for that application in this domain is: ?C:\bea\weblogic81/integration/adapters/dbms/lib/BEA_WLS_DBMS_ADK.ear?
where ?C:\bea\weblogic81? is my WL_HOME or USER_INSTALL_DIR. When I load this
domain into the builder it shows this application as ?internal? and the ?Internal
Application Path? is "$USER_INSTALL_DIR$/integration/adapters/dbms/lib/BEA_WLS_DBMS_ADK.ear".
This will be set as the path value of this application in the config.xml that
will be included in the template you build. When you later use the Configuration
Wizard on this template it will substitute the $USER_INSTALL_DIR$ to the value
of the installation directory of the machine you are creating it on.
If you were to Change these to relative paths, as Mark previously suggested,
it will only work if you copy the domain directory to the same location relative
to your installation directory on the target machine. Also, if you copy the domain
in this manner you will more than likely run into problems with your start/stop
scripts and be forced to hand modify all the paths contained within. The configuration
wizard tries to alleviate these problems and make the configuration entirely portable.
This gives the user who creates the domain from your template the ability to
put it anywhere they want regardless of the paths in the config.xml.
5) ?However, there is another major problem with the Template Builder: it only
includes the startup/shutdown script for the platform you create the template
on. ???I built the template on Solaris with the UNIX scripts. However, I tried
to create a new config on Windows with this template, and the scripts were not
converted to .bat files!?
As I stated previously, the builder will only include *.cmd and *.sh scripts
into your template by default. If you created the domain on a unix platform using
the configuration wizard it will not extract the *.cmd files since these aren?t
considered to be useful on unix. If you were then to attempt building a template
from this domain and take it onto a windows platform, it will obviously be missing
any windows scripts. Conversely, the wizard will extract *.sh scripts on windows
because they can still be useful if a user has an MKS or Cygwin type environment
installed. The config wizard and template builder do not have the ability to convert
scripts. The builder will only include existing scripts that are in your domain
directory and automatically determine any necessary string substitutions that
will be needed. Please note that since WebLogic is only supported on the NT/2K/XP
versions of windows you will find that the wizards use ?.cmd? files and not ?.bat?
files since these are more commonly associated with Win 95/98/ME.
I will be happy to answer any more questions you may have and would also like
to take a look at your domain configuration to try and get a better understanding
of the problems you are encountering.
thanx,

The document "Blank.template" could not be opened. in Pages
I can not open any tempaltes in Pages from iWork on Macbook Pro.
When I open pages. I can then pick a template. when I click that or any of the templates I get
The document “Blank.template” could not be opened.
I am new to the Mac world and trying to set up for my son to do homework. So please bear with me if I ask a lot of questions.
I reloaded the software and still get the same reply. Any help to get it running would be a HUGE help.Mitch,
See if you can run Pages successfully in another User account. If so, you have a corrupt PLIST file in the main user acount.
I have a hunch that this is your problem since reloading the software didn't solve the problem. But, I have to ask if you may have moved Pages.app from where the installer put it.

Issue with Document from Template
Hi Friends,
I am using a Document from Template step to display a set of records in my Workflow. For this i have a created a template of type excel sheet and i have linked the multi line container element from my workflow to this template. But i am not able the view the records in
sequence.Lets say my multi line container element has the following 2 records:
WEATH_ZONE 02/01/2008 03/31/2008 ABC
BACKACST 03/01/2008 03/31/2008 123
Once i execute my Workflow i am getting the values appended in a
single row in excel sheet as follows.
WEATH_ZONEBACKACST ABC123 02/01/200803/01/2008 03/31/200803/31/2008
But i need them in the same format as above.Please let me know how i can solve this issue.
BTW I have done the linking in the template as follows where Str is my multil ine container element and the values after dot is my fields.
{&STR.OPERAND&} {&STR.UDEFVAL1&} {&STR.FROMDATE&} {&STR.DUEDATE&}This workaround worked for me:
You need to enter manually a ## behind your element.
For example if your multiline element is :
{&BUS2012.REPORTDESCRIPTION&}
You need to insert a ## in the element (in the word-document), like this:
{&BUS2012.REPORTDESCRIPTION##&} .
Hope it helps you,

Workflow - create document from template
Hi,
Could anyone tell me what could be the possible use of Create Document from Template step in workflow...Hi vijay,
1)Open the PC application by choosing the entry Double-click to create in the Document templates tray by double-clicking or choose in the step definition of the document generation.
The PC application that you last used to create a template is opened in the Workflow Builder. The system fields and the container elements of the workflow container are offered for selection in the navigation area. They can be transferred into the template by double-clicking.
You cannot use any multiline container elements in your template.
All relationships created between container elements/system fields and the document template are displayed in the object area.
It is not possible to insert system fields and container elements into all types of document template.
2) If you want to create a document template of a different class, select Change document class and choose the new type of document template.
3) Select to assign a name for the document template.
4) Create the document template in the usual way in your PC application. You can use all the functions of the PC application.
5) Insert container elements and/or system fields from the object area into your template by double-clicking. These fields are replaced with the content of the container elements/system fields at runtime.
6) Select to save your document template.
Hope this helps u,

i don't think it depends on the print layout designer.
when you print it you have the choice to select the printer and change the settings.
when your printer driver supports it you should be able to print it. -
Workflow - document from template step not working properly
Hi All,
We are creating a document from the step "Document from a template" in our workflow .
This document is then given to the user as an attachment to a user decision step where he modifies that document.
These modifications to the document are stored in the workflow.
However if i want to give the same document to another user in another user decision, it gives only a read-only copy to him. Is this how a document from a template works or is there some bug in my coding or a possible workaround
Thanks and regards,Hi Amit,
Have you tried option from menu Document -> load other version , when user opens work item for document from template?
I think this should serve the purpose of making document editable for other users.
Hope this helps.

Copy AP Configuration Templates-WCS 7.0.172.0
I am wondering if anyone has seen a way to copy an AP configuration template. We have several distribution centers and the templates are essentially identical other than the Template name and the AP Group VLAN (different for each DC). We set up a new template for each new DC. Being able to copy a template, rename it and change the Group VLAN setting would save a lot of time.
I haven't been able to make it work like it was in prior versions. I have found you can initiate the session from monitor-->access points--->ap name and selecting the radio type. 802.11b/g/n, or 802.11a/n. The icon is under cleanair management operation.

App-V: A Configuration Template for Deploying to Stateless RDS Clients on Citrix Published Desktops with Citrix UPM for Profile Management
Just posted this to the wiki:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/25318.app-v-a-configuration-template-for-deploying-to-stateless-rds-clients-on-citrix-published-desktops-with-citrix-upm-for-profile-management.aspxI would not recommend this and keep the package cache and the client on the same non-persistent drive and enable the Shared Content Store. If you separate the cache and the App-V client they could get out of sync and strange behaviour can occur.
You can use a temporary local profile with Citrix UPM or UE-V and specify what to roam/save.
You can use the Shared Content Store so packages will stream over the network. When the user logs on there is a publishing phase where shortcuts etc are created for the user, this will take some time.
Are you using the App-V full infrastructure?
Are you using a boot disk, partition or PXE in combination with PVS? -
PLD document is more than one page
Hello
When a document has many lines I want the recurring area for a PLD document to stop at a certain distance from the page footer but the end of report area must remain at the same distance.
Meaning a documnet with 2 pages the recurring area always stops at the same place and restart on the second page when on the 1st page the area reserved for 'end of report' data will be empty and filed up on the second page...
What shall I changed in the format of the recurring area to have it like this?
Thank you....hi DELANOE,
Go to Administration>System Intialization>
Print Preferences-->Set Max. Rows per page(as per y'r requirement).
In PLD normally End of Report will be empty if print documents
goes more than a page,End of Report will be displayed in
last page.
Hope above answer will help you.

Multiline variables are truncated in a Word task " Document from template"
Hi everyone,
Id like to know if somebody have had the situation described below and how can I solve it.
The problem is when I try to write in a word document (task created as a Document from template) a container element declared as a Abap dictionary referenced as TLINE-TDLINE (Char 132) with multiline flag activated, because when this variable has more than 3 lines during the execution of the workflow, the word document doesnt gets the whole value, it means the value is truncated and the word document just write or get 2 and a half lines (almost 350 or 400 characters) and I dont know why the rest of the value of this variable is missed.
Does somebody knows what could be happen?, Does SAP have some kind of limit of the amount of characters to be written in a word document with a multiline variable? Theres a bug in the system and a note to be applied? What can I do to write a variable wit multiple number of lines without missing any one?
Thanks a lot for your help.I have had a formal answer from SAP (OSS Note) for this issue, and It is no good at all to me (notes 375669, 559234, 724755);
1. Theres a restriction on the length for text variables 80 characters
2. to implement a long text you need to put several variables together
If any one has another solution, I would appreciate your comments.
Thanks a lot

Create Dynamic Document Library Templates
I have the following scenario within our IT Org
1. PMO office maintains a "Standards" library, to which they publish all standard templates that need to be used for Project Management.
2. Each Project Manager would like to create a document library within their "project site" based on all the documents within "Standards" library.
My question is, would it be possible to create a document library template whose contents are dynamically pulled from another library?
Thanks.Hi ,
Based on your description, my understanding is that each Project Manager
creates document library with the same template, but what they need is that their document libraries have different content type with others.
There isn’t an out of the box method to create document library templates dynamically.
For your issue, I suggest each Project Manager create one document content type with the document template which they need, and add the content type into their document libraries.
Here is a similar case, you can use as a reference:
