Portal Issue with Characters

How come portal has trouble understanding the following characters:
?

I am running a SQL query in omniportlet but one of the columns from the query has some rows with the data being ***** or #####, this caused an error in portal, but once I put a where clause to remove these rows the query ran perfectly. I just want to know what portal does not accept data such as ****** and ######?
Thanks much

Issue with characters like u0151 in maintaining text

Hi,
When characters are entered as per HU language, we face trouble with characters like ő Ő into text fields like in sales order. As soon as this letter is entered, it is changed to 'O' as in EN language.
changing -> Options-> Character set -> Central European, makes the display ő as ő .
1. Is this the permanent solution for this problem ? or do we have any better idea ?
2. Does this character set do any command in printing (SAP Scripts/ Smart Forms / PDF) ?
Please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks

HR Portal issue with RFU/RBU for appraisal

Hello,
I need some assistance regarding our HR Portal. Currently for appraisal, the Manager will have three options to view the appraisal forms.
1) Direct Reporting (all employees that are reporting directly to the manager will appear)
2) All employee (all employees under this manager (org unit, directly reporting, etc) will appear)
3) RBU/RFU reporting employees (all employees that have the A/BZ10 relationship with the manager will appear)
The issue here is, when the manager view the list of employees under the 'RBU/RFU' option, his/her own name will appear in it.
Can anyone help me regarding this issue ? Where to check or configure ? Or is it related to the evaluation path ?
Anyone faced this problem before ?
Thanks in advance.

Dear nahoJ deyS,
I have reconfigured my evaluation path and now it is working as it should. Hopefully this is all it needs.
I will award some brownie points for you.

Company Portal issue with Windows 8.1/IE11?

Hi,
I recently started to create an Intune environment for my company. We are migrating to Windows 8.1, however I found some issues concerning Windows 8.1 and the Intune company portal.
I'm currently using a Windows 7 laptop, and I don't have any problems whatsoever to interact with Windows Intune. However, every user with Windows 8.1 (and automatically IE 11) cannot see any apps deployed in the company portal. I do know for sure they are
correctly deployed for these users, but they cannot access the apps. They only see the standard (empty) company portal. Is this a known issue?
I think it's very strange because the admin panel can detect the OS as Windows 8.1, but when these computers access a site like: supportdetails dotCOM, the OS recognized by the browser is Windows NT. Is this normal as wel?
I really hope you can help me with this issue, because we would like to go in production with Windows Intune fairly shortly.
Kind Regards,
Tijl

Hi,
Has there been any progression with this known issue yet?
Its not an option for me to have 400 users at this customer to create microsoft accounts for themselves.
Also it does not seem possible to to link primary device in the company portal(at least not from this one http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44997).
This linking is possible to do in IE11.
So we are stuck using IE11 to link user devices and then the sideloaded company portal to deploy applications.
Any solution for this? Or is it not supposed to work without Microsoft Account?

Issues with characters OLTP x OBAW

I have for example JOB_TITLE column in S_CONTACT as "Produção" (that is the brazilian portuguese for Production).
After running ETL with Informatica/DAC I do have in the OBAW "Produc?o".
This seems to me as a codepage issue due to some wrong installation.. Oracle and Informatica are installed under Linux.
I´ve checked the Oracle DB and it has USERENV(LANGUAGE) as: BRAZILIAN PORTUGUESE_BRAZIL.WE8MSWIN1252 (OLTP, OBAW and Repositories are in the same instance)
During Informatica install we´ve defined:
- for the Powercenter Integration service: Codepage: ISO 8859 Western Europe and
- for Oracle_BI_DW_Base codepage: MS Windows Latin 1
So I can see that there might be some mismatch... Question is what codepage should I choose for Informatica (since I will be reinstalling it soon in another server) ?
Txs. for any help.
Antonio

Good question. I'm not a specialist but I will try to help with what I know.
You must choose carefully the parameter of the integration service.
On this picture during the repository creation,
http://gerardnico.com/wiki/_detail/powercenter/power_center_configuration_integration_service_character_data_861.jpg?id=powercenter%3Ainstallation_861
You will see that you can choose the encodage parameter.
Choose Unicode for the character encoding.
Which parameters do you have now ?

Hi,
Does your indexed data (which you hope to match) contain "sofá" or "sofa" (no diacritic)? If the latter, and in-general, you may benefit from the dgidx flag --diacritic-folding* as described in documentation "Mapping accented characters to unaccented characters". If you are running the latest version, this is all that should be required to generate a match.

Issues with Characters & Strings

Cant quite convert these funny characters into some string or chars.Ive tried almost everything: toString, charValue, charAt, String.valueOf(),charArray(), nothing is working at this point,and I need help.
     public static void main(String args[]){
          randomOps ro = new randomOps();
          for(int i = 0; i < 4; i++){
               char[] chars = ro.randomOperators();
               String string = String.valueOf(chars);
               System.out.println("char operators are:" + string);
          }Here's the output that Im getting:
C:\Java>java randomOps
char operators are:?? ☺
char operators are:☻☻☺
char operators are: ☻☻☻
char operators are:   ??

Here it is:
public char[] randomOperators() {
               Random random = new Random();
               char[] randomChar = new char[4];
                              for(int i = 0; i < randomChar.length; i++ ){
                                        char[] chars = new char[]{'+','-','/','*'};
                    //int r = random.nextInt(chars.length);
                    randomChar[i] = (char)random.nextInt(4);
                                        //randomChar = chars[r];

Issue with TS12300116 in Portal

Hi:
I am using standard workflow WS12300111 for automated leave and I have an issue with TS12300116 (Process Leave Request by Employee) in the portal.
Here is the scenario:
Employee submits leave request via the portal --> Manager rejects leave request via the portal --> Employee selects the 'rejected' leave request in the portal and selects 'change' to change to another date for the leave (the correct approver shows on the screen) --> After sending the request, I am getting the following error message, "You are not one of the receivers of the work item".
Under SWFVISU, I have verified the following settings for TS12300116:
APPLICATION - LeaveRequest
DYNPARAM - wi_id=${item.externalId}
PACKAGE - sap.com/ess~lea
I have also set as 'general' task for TS12300116.
Is there any other settings that I have missed or need to verify? Are there any changes that need to be made under the actual task itself (i.e. Agent field). The current setting in the agent field is: Expression &_WF_INITIATOR&.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Brian

Hi,
Please check the general task for the workflow tasks...

Authentication issue with Xcelsius/Portal integration

I am facing an issue with the way we have integrated our Xcelsius dashboard with our corporate portal. I know this probably is more of a SDK question than Administration, but I figured I will ask it here anyway since Tim and some others are diverse enough in their knowledge base. This might be LONG post but please advise if anyone has any good pointers.
We have an Xcelsius dashboard that needs to be served up via our corporate intranet (based on MS Sharepoint 2007). Now we are NOT using the MS Sharepoint Portal Integration Kit, but just doing a basic integration of the SWF call within a web part on Sharepoint. All this means is that within a portlet (web-part) on Sharepoint, I am making a HTTP call to the openDocument URL to invoke the SWF file. So the SWF is actually served up from our Tomcat App Server, and displayed onto this frame within the portal. That is the basic idea.
To achieve this, what I did was write some custom code using the Java SDK to modify the openDocument a little bit. By doing so, I was able to insert some behind-the-scenes-login code wherein no matter who the portal user (Win AD-based) is, he is logged in to BOE as a generic "dashboard-user" and the dashboard is served up. This worked fine for the first dashboard where all we had was SWF and some WebI linking using openDocument (no full-InfoView access).
But in this second dashboard now, what we also have is a hyperlink for users to get to InfoView to do Ad-hoc reporting. What this does is open a child browser window from within the portal (dashboard) --- and it remembers the BOE session for the generic user id "dashboard-user" and logs the end-user in to InfoView using that. But what I actually want is that the end-users, on this new window, should only be prompted at the traditional InfoView logon screen where they can manually enter their Windows AD password and get in. Thus, I would like to keep the dashboard SWF page session separate from the InfoView ad-hoc session, which I cannot seem to do because of the browser relationship and session maintenance.
I am trying to find a way where I can simulate a single sign-on for dashboard viewers on the portal, but at the same time let them jump off to InfoView as themselves.
Any thoughts on how I can do this?
Notes:
We DO NOT have Single Sign-On enabled for InfoView
We are using Windows AD authentication (manual, no SSO)
We are on Tomcat

Sarang Deshpande wrote:
1) If the InfoView app on Tomcat (desktoplaunch) is configured with Vintela, openDocument calls from the portal with automatically work using behind the scenes SSO, correct?
in XIR2 everything that falls under infoview should SSO when infoview is setup for SSO (not the case in XI 3.x)
Sarang Deshpande wrote:
2) What is the best practice when it comes to the service accounts needed? I have implemented Windows AD manual auth already so I have a service account that use for that. Should I be using the same on and making vintela/SSO-specific changes to it...or should I have a separate vintela service account and deal with two different ones..each for a diff purpose?
There is no best practice per se but the less service account the lower your chances to duplicate an SPN, functionally everything seems to work just as well with multiple as it does with 1 (of course with 1 there is less management work) If you click the SSO link in my forum sticky post I have a section explaining this with some suggested methods of deploying a service account(s)
Sarang Deshpande wrote:
3) Other than some minor browser configurations that might be required, is there anything else that I should communicate to the team about what might be required to be "pushed" to users' PCs?
Using the default config nothing should be required on the client machine (unless SSO has been disabled in the browser or you intend to use a url that contains a period ..... (i.e. FQDN or IP) with hostname URL (the default) it should just work.
To note if you have XP SP2 or older there is a microsoft spnego bug you may need to apply a fix if you aren't patched to SP3 (about 5% of our customers run into this).

ADF Faces - issue with Portal and af table

I wonder if anybody could help me with a problem we are experiencing with running our ADF Faces app inside a portal (NOT Oracle Portal). We are using the af table tag with the rows attribute set as follows:
<af:table emptyText="No items found"
rows="10" banding="row"
bandingInterval="1"
binding="#{backing_ModuleSearchReg.table1}"
id="table1"
var="row">
What this does is if we have more than 10 rows to display it will display
a table header that has a label 'Previous 1-10 of nnn' Next 10. However, when you click on 'Next 10' it produces a Javascript error.
When we run the app outside of the portal we do not get this problem.
I believe this is related to known issues with JSF and Javascript inside a 'framed' web page. But if anybody help me with this or point me to a resource that can help it would be very much appreciated.
Many Thanks in advance.
Chris

Hi,
I remember a similar issue with inner frames that should be fixed in JDeveloper 10.1.3.3. The problem was that the ADF Faces JavaScript did not get the correct document root.

GUI Download Issue with Chinese characters

Hello,
Currently we are upgrading from 4.7 to ECC. I'm using GUI_DOWNLOAD
function module to download the data from SAP to desktop. I do have an
issue with Chinese characters while downloading the file from SAP to ECC.
In 4.7 the Chinese characters are being downloaded (I haven't used any
code page) perfectly, but where as in ECC the downloaded file has junk
characters instead of Chinese.
Is there any change in the GUI_UPLOAD FM.

Hi bharat,
please check whether you ecc 6.0 is uni coded or not (as you upgraded).
If it is not uni coded then you will not be able to print the Chinese characters.
You can see whether it is uni coded or not by the following
in your app toolbar under system click on status.
There you can see whether your ecc6.0 is uni coded or not.

Web Logic 10.3 upgrade causes issues with escaped characters in JSP.

We recently upgraded our application servers from Weblogic 9.2 to Weblogic 10.3 and we are having an issue with escaped characters in a JSP code. Here is an example of what we are seeing:
var convertedBody1 = document.getElementById('body').value.replace(/\$FIRST_NAME\$/g, firstName);
This code works in Weblogic 9.2. In Weblogic 10.3 we have to make the following changes:
var convertedBody1 = document.getElementById('body').value.replace(/\$FIRST_NAME\$/g, firstName);
Thanks, Tom

Variable input values issue with Portal reports in WAD

Hi Gurus,
We have issue with our reports which are created in WAD and when executed through CRM portal. We are executing the report with some selection criteria by changing default values, and once we get the out put we use SAVEAS option to save the report to favourites. But the issue arises when we open the reprot again by clicking OPEN tab next to SAVEAS button. It opens our report, but the selection screen vaues are getting changed to default instead of showing the values which we entered before saving the report.
ex: we have fiscalyear/period: default value is 001.2009 - 010.2009, but i changed the value to 001.2010 - 010.2010 and saved the out put of the report. when i reopen the report useing open option, it is showing 001.2009 - 010.2009 in input screen.
Please let me know if some one has come accross this issue, or is it standard SAP behaviour. It is working fine when executed through Query designer. This is not related to personlization of variabl.es.
Regards,
Yada

Hi Hari,
Thanks for your promp response...but is there any settings to get the variable values with out saving as variant, because its working fine when executing through query designer....

Issue with session management with portal 701 AFP

Hi portal experts,
We are facing an issue with one of our portal 7 ehp1 running the AJAX framework pages.
When logging off, the DSM popup is shown and it disappears. However, the backend sessions are kept alive when we look in transaction SM12, which indicates that the backend session has not been closed (proven in transaction SM04)
The same issue arises when closing a popup window. In this case, no DSM popup is shown and the sessions are maintained as well.
Popup blockers are disabled
Portal url and backend url are in the trusted sites collection
Does this have something to do with the AJAX framework?
Does anyone have any pointers for us?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Luk

Hi Tom,
I already came across this note earlier. Currently I'm unable (not allowed) to install the httpwatch utility.
To add to the complexity, web dispatchers are used to access the portal and used between the portal and the backend systems. If I understood correctly, we need to have the ABAP Security Sessions Enabled setting turned on in this sort of landscape. Is this correct?
If it is not required, couldn't we just turn off this setting?
Thanks in advance!

Issue with Keyboard Special Characters in HP Pavilion DV6-3004TU

I am using a HP Pavilion DV6-3004TU notebook. I just had my Windows 7 Professional installed. When I @ using Shift + 2 it displays " (quotation marks). It is vice-versa as well, ie., when I type " using Shift ' it displays @ symbol. I as well have issue with typing the hash symbol. When I type Shift 3 it displays £ instead of hash symbol. This is a brand new laptop and I am using an external USB keyboard as well for my convenience. This problem is encountered in both keyboards (notebook keyboard and external keyboard) as well. What do I do now? It has become a literal mess with characters making it difficult most of the times. Kindly help
This question was solved.
View Solution.

That looks like keyboard layout issue...Looks like your keyboard is set to UK english...to check that...
To check that, Click Start, type intl.cpl in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER. On the Keyboards and Language tab, click Change keyboards.
You should see 2 entries English (united States) and English (United Kingdom). If true, delete English (United Kingdom). That should take care of it...
