Prompt for Record filter

Hi guys,
I see where i can have a prompt for a Query filter...
but
i think what i want is even easier.
i have a field called open which is true or false.
what i need is to prompt if the user wants to see
the open data or not.
do I need a special version of Crystal to do this?
thanks
timalaugh

Have this open column at last in the details tab....
Create a formula which returns boolean 0/1
say 0 is returned, if user sets "open" as TRUE
1 is returned 1 if user sets "open" as FALSE
Conditionally suppress the column "open" based on the Boolean value returned
Thanks,
G

How to create prompt for inline filter?

HI All. Can anyone plz help me, how to create prompt for inline filter?
Let me give an examle...
Suppose I've taken two columns as # of New Invoices and # of Cancelled Invoices
Now, If I set a date prompt / month prompt, then the "# of cancelled invoices" column will fetch the number of cancelled invoice for that month only, which I have chosen in the prompt. But I want the "# of cancelled invoices" column to fetch data for the month chosen by me in another prompt.
So, can anyone help me with the sql statement, which will fetch the prompt data (i.e., month / date chosen by the user) automatically and will furnish the result accordingly.
Thanks.

To create a column prompt:
To create a dashboard prompt, use the following sub-procedure.
Navigate to the Oracle BI Enterprise Edition Home page, locate the global header, hover the mouse pointer over the New menu to access the menu, and select Dashboard Prompt. From the Select Subject Area menu, select the subject area for which you want to create a prompt. The "Definition pane" is displayed.
Click the New toolbar button in the Definition Pane to access the prompt type selection list. From the list, select Column Prompt. The "Select Column dialog" is displayed.
Select a column and click OK. The "New Prompt dialog" displays. If your repository is configured for double columns, then ensure that you select the correct display column. For information on double columns, see "Understanding the Double Column Feature".
The number of columns that you include in a prompt can affect performance. In general, you should limit the number of columns to as few as possible.
If you are creating a dashboard prompt and want to add or remove related subject areas, then click the Select subject area button in the "Select Column dialog" to display the "Add/Remove Subject Areas dialog".
To create an inline prompt, use the following sub-procedure.
Create a new analysis or access an existing analysis for which you want to create a prompt. Click the Prompts tab. The "Definition pane" is displayed.
Click the New toolbar button in the Definition Pane to access the prompt type selection list. From the list, select Column Prompt. The analysis' selected columns are displayed in the cascading menu that is adjacent to the Column Prompt selection item.

XL Reporter - Prompting for Production Order Number - How to?

I have watched the FlashBook's for creating reprots, and following the directions. When I go to create a new Paramater, the Document Number is not an available Dimension.
Can anyone point me in the right direction in setting up an XL Reporter report that prompts for Production Order number / Document ID? How do you create prompts for record ID's?
Thanks.
Mike

Thank you for the help. This gets me closer then I was before.
To test, I am list listing the Production Order Document Number and the Due Date. Looking to list only the Production Order and Due Date from a prompted Production Order.
I tried both Cell Expansion and Row Expansion using the parameter you suggested. Cell Expansion returns all documents, but with a document number of 0. Row expansion gives me an error.
I have captured all the screen shots and posted them to the web. If you wouldnt mind taking a quick look. I am sure something I am doing is off, but feel I am close with your help.

Report is not showing a prompt for a Charactorstic Filter Drill Down..!!

Hello Experts,
Recently my project was enhanced with some more new project and mixed it with my project.
Now my issue is before my new project was mixed into this project. We have the option..when a material drill down we come to see the Filter window.
In that my old project, for the users comfortability and for knowing to users that there are more than 200 materials avaialble like that..in that filter they put one prompt message " has more than 200 values ".
But after mixing up the enhanced new project, now..we are unable to see the above prompt message in Filter window..when material drill down.
User requirement is to again users need to see that kinf of prompt in the materils drill down filter window.
Requesting you , please reply me if any body faced this kind of issue in your projects or come to know from ur end.
Thanks,
SN.

Hi,
This Prompt message would have been set in WAD(XHTML Coding section) in your old project. Now , you cross check your Web template for the same. Your issue will be resolved.

LSMW recording SM30, prompt for customizing request

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to use lsmw for uploading data into a customizing table. For this I recorded the creation of an entry with transaction sm30. At the end of the recording (when saving) the prompt for a customizing request pops up. When executing the resulting batch input, it get's confused (in my opinion because of the transport request popup in the recording).
Is there a way to prevent the popup?
I've read in a different thread that I can create 1 entry, then do the recording for the lsmw in the same session. This sounds good to me, but I don't see how to do this.
If anybody has an idea how to solve this, it would be great.
Regards,
Monika.

Hi
No u can't prevent that popup, because u're trying to update a customing table: you should considere two main things:
- The call of the request popup can depend on the kind of the client, i.e how the client (dev, test or prod) is set;
- If the cleint is closed, so the modifications are not allowed (for example in production system), your lsmw project can't works.
Anyway by SE11 u can try to create a maitenance view table based on the database table u need to update, leave cutomizing flag and generate the maintenance program (for trx SM30) for this new view: probably now it shouldn't show the popup for the transport (but I'n not sure), if it works u can use it in your project.
It's very hard to manage a table control in LSMW, u can't know how many recodrs u need to update and u can't change the bdc program generated for lsmw.
In this situation the best solution is to insert only one record: i.e. for every record u need to update:
- CALL SM30
- Press NEW ENTRY
- Insert the new record to the top of table control
- Save
- exit
In this way your bdc program doesn't depend on the number of records, as you manage only one record, i.e your project will create a bdc session with as many transaction as many records to be inserted.

Prompt for transport request if records are added/modified for custom table

Hello Experts,
A couple of questions,
1. How do we prompt user to create a TR whenever he changes a record in my custom table
via SM30? my custom table has a maintenance type of 'C' - customizing already.
2. How do we transport the custom table contents to another client?
Thank you guys and take care!

Hello
Regarding (1) just have a look at a standard maintenance view like V_T001W (SE11 -> menu Utilities -> Table Maintenance Generator ):
Here you can see that the option Standard Recording Routine is chosen which is responsible for prompting for a transport request as soon as records of the table/view are changed.

Command or Canvas Events for Recording ?? Please Help..

Hi I am Abhijith I am a total newbie to the j2me world, And I am learning it now,
My project topic is "Bluetooth Walkie Talkie " , And I am trying my best and putting
all my efforts to code incrementally by learning , Before I could implement bluetooth,
I thought let me complete the recording The audio and playing part first,
The recording and playing of audio is working fine , But i would like to do it a real manner as Real Walkie talkie does, I want to record audio ONLY when the Key is being
pressed , and when its released it should exit the player hence saving the recorded file,
(Actually i dont want to save it in future,i would be sending the bytearray though the bluetooth , but for now , I want the Current module to be ready)
I tried my best searching online to implement my requirement but the couldnot find
such events I found Canva's KEYPRESS, KEYRELEASE , etc events but they dint not
serve my purpose, Let me clearly tell where I am stuck , After the midlet starts(by launching it) then i would like to press a key( keypressed say No 5) for certain
amount of time and the audio should be recorded only for the keypressed duration ,
after I release , it should stop recording and save as a wav file .
Whats happening is When i keep the key pressed , The midlet asks whether to allow
the recording , for this purpose when I release key the control is going out, and
i am not able to achieve the needed , I am posting the code here, Please Help me.
I am not asking for the complete spoon feeding or ready made code, But as a beginner
I need help from you all to learn and implement it.(at least it should satisfy me,i would feel i have learnt something then)
Here below is my code ( i AM using WTK 2.5 )

The control goes out when midlet asks whether to allow recording ,
I thank you anticipation ...
-Abhijith Rao

Midlet asking whether to allow the recording are typical permissions prompts specified by MIDP security policy. You need to sign the MIDlet and give it proper permissions.
Problems like this were discussed in an older thread at WTK forum: *[MIDlet keeps asking for permission.|http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5347313]* According to one of the posters in the thread, +"...I got it to work on the emulator by setting the permission to 'manufacturer'. It runs smoothly without annoying questions..."+
If you're interested, check documentation and tutorials on MIDP security policy for more details.
For events to record audio only when the key is being pressed, consider GameCanvas API, method getKeyStates.
I am not certain though if doing it this way is a good idea. I doubt that phone users have same habits as those of walkie-talkies; for them it might be indeed more comfortable to use single simple key presses to start and finish recording.

I have just transferred my entire application file from an Imac to an identical Imac, both running OS 10.9.5. Everything works fine, excepting that when I attempt to open Photoshop 6, I am prompted for the serial number. I enter the serial number provided by Adobe, which I have confirmed with my "previous purchase" records kept by Adobe. It is demanding a "qualifying product", all of which is contained in the complete files I transferred. Why can't Adobe recognise my valid serial number for Photoshop 6?

I have just transferred my entire application file from an Imac to an identical Imac,
Say what?
Please use the proper installer.
Are you really talking about Photoshop 6 or about Photoshop CS6?

Calendar prompt for Date variable from bex

Hi All,
I have a Bex query where I have a variable on 0CALDAY
- Customer exit (i_step = 1 to populate with current date)
- Single value
- Mandatory
I created universe on this query and in webI selection screen i do see the variable prompt.
I am not able to see the current date populated automatically since exit values are not populated to WebI at runtime.
My problem is that in WebI selection screen we get list of date values from the info provider instead of Calendar prompt
where user can enter the values directly.
I am currently on BO XI 3.1 SP3.
Is there any specific setting in Universe or bex query which is required to get this Calendar prompt instead of list of values for dates?
Note: When we were on SP1 the universe created then had same variable from bex and it still shows us Calendar prompt but ever since we upgraded to SP3 for the query splitter functionality we not able to get the calendar prompt for date variable in new universe we create
Thanks
Ritesh

Yep.
Now tell me how you want to show that Prompt @ WebI report level.
My problem is that in WebI selection screen we get list of date values from the info provider instead of Calendar prompt
where user can enter the values directly. Exactly, i didn't get this??
@Prompt:
You have flexibility to show options like:
Mono/Multi: User can select Single value or Multiple.
BW Variable: Same we have (Single/Multiple)
Free/Constrained: User can Enter his/her value directly or No change option.
BW Variable: By defalut you will get this, once you made it to Optional input.
Persistent/Not_Persistent: Refreshed report has to show last selected value means use Persistent otherwise Not_P.
By seeing the Prompt syntax , I can say your Variable is after Customer Exit, Correct??
Workaround for your Problem is:
<FILTER KEY="ZV_DATE"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="@Prompt('Date (Previous Day)','A','Date\LovDate (Previous Day)Base',mono,primary_key)"/></CONDITION></FILTER>
You have to remove that Date class and objects from prompt syntax. Because of that it showing up LOV's not calendar.
Like:
<FILTER KEY="ZV_DATE"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="@Prompt('Date (Previous Day)','A',',mono,primary_key)"/></CONDITION></FILTER>
Why, It should be blank??
Because Date needs no class\object to show up, by default you will get Calendar on the fly.
Hope you got my point.
Thank You!!

Search for records in the event viewer after the last run (not the entire event log), remove duplicate - Output Logon type for a specific OU users

Hi,
The following code works perfectly for me and give me a list of users for a specific OU and their respective logon types :-
$logFile = 'c:\test\test.txt'
$_myOU = "OU=ABC,dc=contosso,DC=com"
# LogonType as per technet
$_logontype = @{
2 = "Interactive"
3 = "Network"
4 = "Batch"
5 = "Service"
7 = "Unlock"
8 = "NetworkCleartext"
9 = "NewCredentials"
10 = "RemoteInteractive"
11 = "CachedInteractive"
Get-WinEvent -FilterXml "<QueryList><Query Id=""0"" Path=""Security""><Select Path=""Security"">*[System[(EventID=4624)]]</Select><Suppress Path=""Security"">*[EventData[Data[@Name=""SubjectLogonId""]=""0x0""
or Data[@Name=""TargetDomainName""]=""NT AUTHORITY"" or Data[@Name=""TargetDomainName""]=""Window Manager""]]</Suppress></Query></QueryList>" -ComputerName
"XYZ" | ForEach-Object {
#TargetUserSid
$_cur_OU = ([ADSI]"LDAP://<SID=$(($_.Properties[4]).Value.Value)>").distinguishedName
If ( $_cur_OU -like "*$_myOU" ) {
$_cur_OU
#LogonType
$_logontype[ [int] $_.Properties[8].Value ]
#Time-created
$_.TimeCreated
$_.Properties[18].Value
} >> $logFile
I am able to pipe the results to a file however, I would like to convert it to CSV/HTML When i try "convertto-HTML"
function it converts certain values . Also,
a) I would like to remove duplicate entries when the script runs only for that execution.
b) When the script is run, we may be able to search for records after the last run and not search in the same
records that we have looked into before.
PLEASE HELP !

If you just want to look for the new events since the last run, I suggest to record the EventRecordID of the last event you parsed and use it as a reference in your filter. For example:
<QueryList>
<Query Id="0" Path="Security">
<Select Path="Security">*[System[(EventID=4624 and
EventRecordID>46452302)]]</Select>
<Suppress Path="Security">*[EventData[Data[@Name="SubjectLogonId"]="0x0" or Data[@Name="TargetDomainName"]="NT AUTHORITY" or Data[@Name="TargetDomainName"]="Window Manager"]]</Suppress>
</Query>
</QueryList>
That's this logic that the Server Manager of Windows Serve 2012 is using to save time, CPU and bandwidth. The problem is how to get that number and provide it to your next run. You can store in a file and read it at the beginning. If not found, you
can go through the all event list.
Let's say you store it in a simple text file, ref.txt
1234
At the beginning just read it.
Try {
$_intMyRef = [int] (Get-Content .\ref.txt)
Catch {
Write-Host "The reference EventRecordID cannot be found." -ForegroundColor Red
$_intMyRef = 0
This is very lazy check. You can do a proper parsing etc... That's a quick dirty way. If I can read
it and parse it as an integer, I use it. Else, I just set it to 0 meaning I'll collect all info.
Then include it in your filter. You Get-WinEvent becomes:
Get-WinEvent -FilterXml "<QueryList><Query Id=""0"" Path=""Security""><Select Path=""Security"">*[System[(EventID=4624 and EventRecordID>$_intMyRef)]]</Select><Suppress Path=""Security"">*[EventData[Data[@Name=""SubjectLogonId""]=""0x0"" or Data[@Name=""TargetDomainName""]=""NT AUTHORITY"" or Data[@Name=""TargetDomainName""]=""Window Manager""]]</Suppress></Query></QueryList>"
At the end of your script, store the last value you got into your ref.txt file. So you can for example get that info in the loop. Like:
$Result += $LogonRecord
$_intLastId = $Event.RecordId
And at the end:
Write-Output $_intLastId | Out-File .\ref.txt
Then next time you run it, it is just scanning the delta. Note that I prefer this versus the date filter in case of the machine wasn't active for long or in case of time sync issue which can sometimes mess up with the date based filters.
If you want to go for a date filtering, do it at the Get-WinEvent level, not in the Where-Object. If the query is local, it doesn't change much. But in remote system, it does the filter on the remote side therefore you're saving time and resources on your
side. So for example for the last 30 days, and if you want to use the XMLFilter parameter, you can use:
<QueryList>
<Query Id="0" Path="Security">
<Select Path="Security">*[System[TimeCreated[timediff(@SystemTime) <= 2592000000]]]</Select>
</Query>
</QueryList>
Then you can combine it, etc...
PS, I used the confusing underscores because I like it ;)

Since upgrading to iOS 6 I am not getting prompted for my password when I update apps. Why is this?

When I updated apps on my ipad2 and iphone4S I used to get prompted for my password within a certain time. So I could update a couple and then 10 minutes later if I wanted to download or update something else I would need to put in my password again. Since I upgraded to iOS6, I don't believe I am prompted for my password the same amount of times. I updated an app this am after not using iPad through the night and it just updated, no password required. This has me concerned now because sometimes I bump buttons by accident and now I will be charged for these accidents. What has happened to Apple's brilliant security?

They've changed it in iOS and updates (and updates ONLY) do not require a password since it is really unnecessary as they have it on record that you were the one who bought the app. Why is more security needed, you aren't going to be charged for anything?
Next time you update and app go to the App Store and try to buy something. You will be asked for your password.

I cannot download an app from the app store, it keeps loading until it says "You have already purchased this app so it will be downloaded no at no additional charge", and then it prompt for password and I input it after which nothing happens.

I cannot download an app from the app store, it keeps loading until it says "You have already purchased this app so it will be downloaded no at no additional charge", and then it prompt for password and I input it after which nothing happens.
I know my icloud has record of my installing this app before, but that was the first install that was failed during that time some other apps also keeps loading without respond whey they updated itself, and this app didn't install before I restart the device. But I don't see this app on my device after I restarted the device so it should have been installed on my device. It seems icloud has created some kind of dead loop that makes it not able to get the correct status about this app on my device.
I have no problem install this app on my other device (iPad) with the same account, but just fail on my iPhone. And it just fine installing other apps...... What happened !!?? @@
Please help !!!

Someone help! I dont know how to do this and please put the words into an easy way to understand because im young...

Custom drop down list for the filter for BEX report

Hi, all:
I am writing a query for a BEX report that prompts the user to enter a value for a field "GL account". I would like to have the user select from a limited number of GL options rather than have the whole Chart of accounts show up. Is there a way to make a "custom" drop down list for the filter?
Thanks!
Jenny

You need to make your GL account info object as an authorization object. And in the info object ,for BEx you need to select the option "only authorized values".
Create an analyis authorization on gl account and assign the restricted set of GL accounts to the user. Asign this analysis authorization to the user.In the query restrict this infoobject with an authorization variable. This would solve your purpose.user would be able to see only a selected set of GL accounts for which he is authorized.

Crystal Reports prompting for creds when viewed from BO 4

The environment:
Business Objects Enterprise 4, sp2 patch 8
SAP ECC 6.0, kernel 701, sup. pkg. lvl 137
This is a new BOE 4 installation on a test system. The BOE installation has been configured to use Windows AD authentication with SSO. When I run a Crystal Report that is based on SAP ECC data, I am prompted for credentials. So I used the following document to configure BOE for SSO to DB:
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/HowtosetupSSOagainstSAPBWinSBOBI4.0forLDAPusers
This didn't fix the problem. SAP ECC reports in BOE still prompt for creds when viewed. SAP Authentication is verifiably working, but I'm not sure if SSO to DB is working. One thing I've noticed is that when I log in to BOE using SAP authentication and view the report, I'm not prompted for creds. In BOE I added my Windows AD acct as an alias in my SAP acct, but I may have either done this incorrectly, or there may be something I need to do in addition.
question 1: Is there an easy way to verify if SSO to DB is working correctly?
question 2: In CMC --> Authentication --> SAP --> Entitlement Systems --> User Name, I'm assuming that this is an SAP user name. What roles/profiles does this account need? Should it be a dialog acct?
question 3: Our ECC system is configured to use SNC. Do I need to configure SNC in BOE for SSO to DB to work?
question 4: I added my Windows AD user as an alias on my SAP user record. I'm not sure this is correct... can someone verify?
Any help or suggestions are much appreciated.

Thanks, Ingo. Once I got snc configured, everything began working wonderfully.
