Pre fill listbox/dropdown dynamicly using ABAP

Hi,
im working with HCM Processing & Forms, using the methods provided standard by SAP, and im trying to get a certain Binding(the dropdown) filled dynamicly.
Ive tried looking for this on the internet/sdn but i cant seem to find anything usefull.
Can anyone point me to a howto, an example or anything usefull?
Thx in advance.

To prefill a drop down you can use GET_HELP_VALUES method of generic service. Here you
need to fill HELP_DATASETS parameter. Certain SAP classes like CL_HRASR00_GS_MGRS_POSITIONS show
how to fill HELP_DATASETS, here they have used INITIALIZE method. Also in the form scenario you need
maintain INPUT HELP with generic service name.
Thanks,

Possible to generate graphics dynamically using ABAP?

Hello friends,
It is possible to generate graphics dynamically using ABAP as programming language? In the same line like SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) or ChartDirector?
Output of this abap program should be a picture.

Possible to use JavaScript to Import Data from XML file to pre-fill fields?

Hi,
I have a dynamic fill-in PDF that I want to "pre-fill" internally in my company before sending out to users who will change any pre-filled fields necessary and answer questions we did not already answer.
We do not have LiveCycle Reader Extensions, but we can use Acrobat to import data from an XML document to pre-fill the named fields. Is it possibly to do this task using folder-level Javascript or some other method? I can look into this, and post my findings, but I'd like to know if it's possible or if I need to use a different programming language.

Hi,
I am afraid that solution was for a specific client and I can't share it. If I get a chance I will mock up an example, but this wont be for a while. From memory it was just a straight importData method. This would normally fail silently in a non-certified form, but when the form is digitally signed/certified, it works without a hitch.
Good luck,
Niall

Have a combobox pre-filled using data from database

What would be a recommended method to have a combobox
pre-filled using data from database?

You can load an Array with the data returned from your
database and bind to that array as the dataProvider for the
comboBox.
[Bindable]
private var myArrayDP:Array = new Array();
//Load the array with your returned data.
<mx:ComboBox dataProvider="{this.myArrayDP}">
</mx:ComboBox>
Using an ArrayCollection however is often better if you want
changes to the dataProvider to automatically reflect in the
ComboBox.

Pre-fill the filename in Fileupload UI

Hi,
I am unable to pre-fill the filename in fileupoad UI.
When I launch the WD app, on the browser it get the following URL
http://devai063.private.xxxx.com:8081/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/zgi_file_upload?sap-language=EN
at the end I add &filename=c:benefit.txt and hit enter,
http://devai063.private.xxxx.com:8081/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/zgi_file_upload?sap-language=EN&filename=c:benefit.txt
In WD window HANDLEDEFAULT method I am checking for the filename parameter if not empty I am setting the 'filename' to the context of filename of fileuploadUI, but the app does not show the file name C:
benefit.txt in the fileupload UI.
I debugged the HANDLEDEFAULT and I can see the filename but somehow it is not setting to the filname for uploadfile UI.
any advice is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ram

From the online help:
Technical Browser Details Beyond the Control of WDA
Due to browser restrictions that are unrelated to Web Dynpro ABAP, the previously entered data path might disappear when a FileUpload UI element is clicked. In newer versions of the browser, it is therefore impossible to enter the file name in the entry field. The field always remains empty. The selection of the file name is therefore only possible in new browser versions using the Browse... button. You cannot enter the file name manually (using the keyboard or the Copy and Paste functions) or by setting the file name from the back end (directly or using context binding). For more details, read the security-related information in Internet Explorer 6 about handling <input type=file>.

Filling the Sales Order Header - Source for filling the dropdown boxes

Hi,
I am trying to design the User Interface for Creation of sales order using the WebDynpro's. I want to know, what are all those BAPI's i need to use to fill the following drop down boxes.
1. Order Type
2. Sales Organization
3. Distribution Channel
4. Division
As i am new to ABAP., and i am from Java background, i dont know much about the BAPIs used to get the above data.
Could anyone let me know the source to fill those dropdown boxes. Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Raghavendra

Ah,my bad.
Hmmm,i haven't found a BAPI's for filling all your dropdown-boxes with the valid values.
What about using the FM "RFC_READ_TABLE" to read the values for your drowdown-boxes.(only if you don't want to write a Z*-Function).
For examlpe for the dropdownbox "Sales Orgs",you can can start this FM for the table TVKOT.
Is that a possilbe solution for you?

Address with Type 'Define Dynamically' using Global Data

Hello,
in a new created Adobe form Program Lines are no longer available. How can a global variable be set?
The global variable is used in an Address as Dynamic Address Type.
Thank you very much for your help.
Kind regards, Marion Hergert

hi,
generally the global parameters will be declared and do some logic in the intrface. in the address node,for dynamic address type parameter should be 3rd one ( am not sure), drag the global parameter into that field and you can proceed further.
The following logic I have used when I developed the forms when there is no address number.
I think you can use the similar logic in your case.
If your application makes no use of the Business Address Services but you still want to have country-specific addresses, you must use ABAP coding to achieve this. It is possible to do this in the application program or in the initialization coding of the interface. The example here describes the latter option. You need to call the function module ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM. Among its parameters, you will find address_1. This structure contains all relevant address fields, like name, street, city, or country. These fields must be filled with the address data from your application. In other words, you must take care to create a correct mapping of the address fields from your application and the individual address fields of structure address_1.
You should determine the value of parameter number_of_lines. It equals the maximum number of lines that will be created from the address data. Function module ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM returns an internal table address_printform_table, which has only one column. Every line contains one line of the address that has been assembled according to the addressee's country. These lines need to be converted into a two-column internal table of type tline that can be used as the source of a dynamic text in a PDF form. Its two columns are:
TDFORMAT - contains the paragraph format of the line (e.g. an asterisk for the default format)
TDLINE contains the text itself.
Addresses Without Business Address Services - Coding
TYPE-POOLS: szadr.
DATA:
ls_address       TYPE adrs1,
lt_address_lines TYPE szadr_printform_table,
ls_address_line LIKE LINE OF lt_address_lines.
*map address fields from work area to fields from function module
ls_address-title_text = is_customer-form.
ls_address-name1      = is_customer-name.
ls_address-street     = is_customer-street.
ls_address-post_code1 = is_customer-postcode.
ls_address-city1      = is_customer-city.
ls_address-country    = is_customer-country.
CALL FUNCTION 'ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM'
EXPORTING
    address_1               = ls_address
    address_type            = '1'                       "normal/company
    sender_country          = iv_sending_country
    number_of_lines         = 6
IMPORTING
    address_printform_table = lt_address_lines.
DATA: ls_dynamic_text TYPE tline.
LT_DYNAMIC_TEXT would be defined as a global field
of the interface as follows:
lt_dynamic_text TYPE TABLE OF tline
LOOP AT lt_address_lines
INTO ls_address_line.
ls_dynamic_text-tdformat = '*'.
ls_dynamic_text-tdline   = ls_address_line-address_line.
APPEND ls_dynamic_text TO lt_dynamic_text.
ENDLOOP.
pass this internaltable to the context. drag that table in the layout.

I want to pre-fill the report

I have some reports that are similar but are to be run according to sales rep. As I am in the process of doing this more automatically via email 'bursting', but in the meantime, they need these reports. So i am created one report for each rep. I would like to at least pre fill the rep name as report parameter and to use in the headings at the least. I put in one rep name as the default but it does prompt i would like this to run without the prompting having the name as it does. how do I do this?

hi Paul,
please see how to set up your reports readying them for a publication in this guide.
you need to create a dynamic recipients list as per page 6 (using another report which is essentially a list of emails, names, etc.) as well as looking at the Personalization section. the personalization is what you've done already with the rep name as the prompt.

Add suffix to Project names? Pre-fill Project description?

Hi. I'm still working on my Ap3 workflow. Either of the actions in the subject would be most helpful:
• *Add suffix to Project names*. I have 144 Projects I would like to rename by adding a few words to the end of their current names.
• *Pre-fill Project Description*. The Project Description field can be found on the Project Information HUD ({Shift}+i with a Project selected). I would like to have all new Projects start with a default Project description. This could be put in from the import panel.
I could alternatively make use of being able to append text to the Project Description field.
Thanks.

Hi Dave,
When dealing with dropdowns the best event to use is the preOpen event. This means that there wouldn't be any script in the first dropdown.
Then in the second dropdown you would have a relative simple script that would look back at the user's selection in the first dropdown and then populate the display items in the second dropdown.
See examples here:
http://assure.ly/jcTahK
http://assure.ly/gcXx03
http://assure.ly/fYCuQ2
When adding an item to a dropdown, you can specify both the display item (what the user's sees) and the bound value (the value of the dropdown that is associated with the user's selection).
So,
this.additem("Clonmel", "(052) 1234567");
This would add a city "Clonmel" to the dropdown and the value of the dropdown would be "(052) 1234567", if the user selected Clonmel.
The textfield can then be given the same name as the dropdown and its binding set to Global (see the object > Binding palette when the textfield is selected).
Hope that helps,
Niall

Variable Substitution not working when using ABAP mapping

Hi all,
I am doing an IDoc to File scenario.
Due to some complex mapping requirements, i had to use ABAP mapping for IDoc to File ( IDoc : SHPMNT05)
There is also one more requirement where in i need to generate the receiver filename dynamically
i.e the filename is of the form :
GW-XYZ-DD/MM/YYYY.csv
Where
XYZ is the Shipment number (E1EDT20- TKNUM)
DD/MM/YYYY is the IDOC creation date in ECC (EDIDC-CREDAT)
so i used the variable substitution option in receiver file adapter.
But its not working.
Is there any limitation for using the variable Substitution, doesnt variable substitution work in case of ABAP mapping?
Regards,
Loveena.

Hi,
u written ABAP mapping program to get the file name in the required format ,
is it rt?
when u test it at message mapping(including ABAP map program)
u get the the required format of file name in the one of target filed.
if that was fine, please check the variable substituiton parameters at receiver file adapter.
i mean, are u maintain variable name and refernece.
u have to specify the payload information.
warm regards
mahesh.

ALV Reports using Abap Objects ?

Hi All,
I am trying to print the values in my internal table using ALV, using ABAP classes and objects. Here i am able to get the total succesfully. but i need to get subtotals also, like based on the carrid in table sflight i need subtotal of price for every carrid like 'LH' , 'SQ'.
here is my code:
REPORT znav_report.
DATA: alv TYPE REF TO cl_salv_table,
value1 TYPE REF TO cl_salv_aggregations,
value2 TYPE REF TO cl_salv_aggregation.
DATA: BEGIN OF itab_flight OCCURS 0,
carrid LIKE sflight-carrid,
connid LIKE sflight-connid,
fldate LIKE sflight-fldate,
price LIKE sflight-price,
paymentsum LIKE sflight-paymentsum,
currency LIKE sflight-currency,
END OF itab_flight.
SELECT carrid
connid
fldate
price
paymentsum
currency
FROM sflight INTO TABLE itab_flight
WHERE carrid = 'LH' OR carrid = 'SQ'.
cl_salv_table=>factory( IMPORTING r_salv_table = alv
CHANGING t_table = itab_flight[] ).
CALL METHOD alv->get_aggregations
RECEIVING
value = value1.
CALL METHOD value1->add_aggregation
EXPORTING
columnname = 'PAYMENTSUM'
aggregation = if_salv_c_aggregation=>total
RECEIVING
value = value2.
alv->display( ).
here how to get subtotals for every different carrid.
regards,
Navneeth.K

Hi,
Make use of one of these statement,,,,
Either
(a) select carrid connid fldate price currency planetype into table itab_flight from sflight.
or
(b) select * into corresponding fields of table itab_flight from sflight.
(a) is better in performace than (b)
But before that, please note some performance related issues with OO Context...
1. When defining an Internal table, avoid occurs specification, It is Obsolete,Make use of Initial Size n.
2. Declare Workarea separately,since Internal table defined along with header line is Obsolete in OO Context.Its better and more robust to fill the itab and fetch the values from itab using a separate Workarea rather than the header line... So avoid header lines...
3. When defining an internal table, follow this way ....
 Define a Linetype (Field String) using the TYPES Statement
 TYPES: begin of ty_line,
 f1 type i,
 f2 type i,
 end of ty_line.
 Then define a Table type using TYPES Statement...
 TYPES: ty_lines type standard table of ty_line with default key.
"there is differnnce between line and lines..... make it clear..."
 Then after, define the internal table and its work area using DATA statement... as shown below..
DATA: i_lines type ty_lines,
 wa_lines like line of i_lines
This is the standard way of defining the internal table under OO Context.,,..
Your definition is creating a default header line....that should be avoided...
Thanks for ur patience,
Regards..
