Property metadata

In Global services, I've created a group in property metadata.
Then I clicked on the property option, and created a property with:
Namespace alias-default
Type-String
Group-"The one I created above"
Allowed values csv-a, b, c
documents/<The folder in which i had created a .txt file before>
Clicked OK.
I navigated to Content Admin-> KM Content -> /documents/<myfolder>, Clicked on a text file within that -> Details -> Settings -> Properties.
There I do not see My Property
Any idea if Im missing something here

Hi Prem,
in order to see your property, you need to integrate it in a Property (Structure) Group and not only in a Property (Metadata) Group. You can create this group under "Global Services" -> "Property Structures" -> "Property Groups" and add your property to the "Group Items". Afterwards you need to add the just created group to the "Group Items" of the Property (Structure) Group "all_groups". By that you will have a new tab with your property in it.
Alternatively, if you use the Property (Metadata) Group "default" in your property definition (and not your own group, you should be able to see your property in the "Miscellaneous" tab, without having to add it to a Property (Structure) Group.
Hope this helps,
Robert
PS: Check again all parameters, to be correct, as mentioned in SAPHelp. For example the entry for "Document Validity Patterns (csv)" must be "<b>/</b>documents/<YOUR_FOLDER>/".

  • Icon for Property Metadata

    Hello everyone,
    I want to assign an icon to every Property Metadata that i define.
    When you create a new property, you can enter property metadata values in csv format. Is it possible to associate an Icon  as well with the MetaData Property ?
    Its possible to enter MIME types as well in csv format. I am trying to use it but the tab is not displayed if I use any property renderer related to image. If I set "property renderer" to "Not set" then I can see my MetaData values but no Icons / Images.
    I believe, diplaying images as property metadata should be possible. Has anyone tried it? I am not using the correct combination of property and property renderer I guess.
    Help me out in this case ..
    Cheers!!

    Hi Ashutosh,
    Form my understanding of the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/1a/9a4a3b80f2ec40aa7456bc87a94259/content.htm">OnlineHelp</a>, I do not see how to do what you want without programming.
    The MIME types we can enter in CSV format, refer to a list of document types to property apply.
    As the allowed values are "text", I do not expect it is possible to associate images to these texts.
    Sorry not to have better news

  • Get a list of all available Property MetaData through API

    Hello,
    We have create some custom Property MetaData and assigned them to an new group.
    Now I need to be able to get a list of all the Property MetaData in this new group using a SAP portal API.
    But the only code snippets I've found requires at least the name if the property metadata.
    In other cases a KM IResource object is needed but then you only have the property metadata that's applicable on that IResource.
    Is it possible to do what I have in mind?
    If so can you point me into the correct direction, or provide a code example.
    I've been looking at the IMetaModel, IMetaGroupListIterator, IMetaGroup etc but I've not found any solution.
    Thanks a lot!
    Kind regards,

    Hi
    Try this:     
      IConfigurationAccess icAccess = Configuration.getInstance();
      IWDClientUser wdcu = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
       com.sap.security.api.IUser sapUser = wdcu.getSAPUser();
      IUser user = WPUMFactory.getUserFactory().getEP5User(sapUser);

  • Replace property metadata values with icons

    Hello everybody,
       We have created a new property metadata with specific allowed values. Then we created a new layout set to list a repository including that metadata. We are wondering if there is a way to replace the specific metadata values in the list with a set of icons to improve the look and feel.

  • Property Metadata don't change when deploying project

    Hi,
    1.) I used this help http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/44/2dff5a13363f0ae10000000a114a6b/content.htm
    to create my own commands, uicommands, etc.
    2.) I also created manually in: System Administration => System Configuration => Knowledge Management => Content Management => Global Services => Property Metadata my own properties to extend the userdetails like described in http://help.sap.com/bp_epv170/EP_US/Documentation/How-to/KM/Extending_User_Details.pdf
    This all works perfectly.
    Instead of creating and exporting all my Property Metadata manually I exported them (I have now a XML) and integrated them into my Project => see 1.)
    I also found this post: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/message?messageID=3533233
    So, when I deploy my project and the properties aren't existing the are created immediately. BUT when I change something in the property metadata XML in my project and I redeploy the project the existing property doesn't change.
    I don't want to delete everytime all my properties to make changes active.
    With uicommands I don't have this problems. When I change there something I can deploy the project, new uicommands will be added and existing ones will be updated. Unfortunately not by property metadata.
    Do you have any ideas why this happens?
    Regards,
    Stefan

    Hello Stefan,
    you might have a versioning problem when merging the new KM configuration from your project with the existing configuration in KM. That would explain why everything works fine if you delete the existing settings first but it won't if you try to overwrite the existing settings!
    KM merges the configuration when you deploy a PAR file with configuration. You need to tell the system that the settings in the PAR file should replace the existing settings. This can be done by including the file export_cm_mapping.xml into your project. (At least that is the name of the file in NW04). You can get this file by exporting some configuration from your KM system with the KM export functionality and unzip the resulting configarchive file. It should contain the correct export_cm_mapping.xml file. Just take this file and put it into the src.config directory in the same path. (For NW04 that is: src.config/install/data/system/command/export_cm_mapping.xml.)
    Hope this helps,
    Martin

  • Exporting Property Metadata

    Hi,
    does anybody know how to export and import property metadata from one system to another?
    I have created some properties through System Configuration>Content Management>Global Services>Property Metadata>Properties. Now I want to export this properties and import them to the test system.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Gregori,
    if you are on NW04, go to the place you described by your own, choose Actions -> Export -> Start from the top menu, mark the properties you whish to export, choose Export, choose settings, choose OK; you can add other configurations as well into the same export, like new namespaces...
    After done, choose Actions - Export - Finalize, fill in an Archive Name, choose OK.
    Now you can download the configArchive.
    You can import it via Actions - Import.
    Hope it helps

  • Adding Property MetaData to Upload screen

    Hi,
    I would like to add some Property Metadata for documents that I upload to the KM.
    I have managed to created a new tab with all my properties, but I would like to have some of these properties on the first screen of the upload process, meening, near the name & description of the file - and not inside a different tab.
    Any suggestions how to add properties near the name and description of the file.
    Thanks in advance,
    Aviad

    Hi Avaid and Kiran,
    <b>Creation of Property Metadata:</b>
    navigate to: System Administration -> System Configuration -> Knowledge Management -> Content Management -> Global Services -> Property Metadata.
    This would give you all the properties that are linked with content management.
    When you check Details of any document, the properties (modified date, created date, etc) all exist in the above mentioned Property Metadata.
    If exists, you can use the property.

    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/75/e000861cb8ad4b8e4f19dd6416346d/frameset.htm
    Assuming that it does exist then how should you add this property such that its visible/accessing in Document details:
    Navigate to => System Administration -> System Configuration -> Knowledge Management -> Content Management -> Global Services -> Property Structures.
    The tabs that you see in Document details are all placed in tabs.
    If you want your property to be placed in a different one, then create your tab, add your property and add this tab in the all_groups tab.
    The link given above contains all details.

  • Sorting for property metadata

    Hi All
    I have created a custom metadata and KM navigation iview. This custom metadata property
    is displayed in the iview using layout set. I am getting the option to sort by this property. Is there any way to remove the sorting option for metadata properties?
    Points will be awarded for useful answers.
    Regards,
    Yoga

    That's it!
    To change the data type of a property you have to change it on database.
    So you'll first change the type-attribute of your property (in the "Property Metadata") into the used type.
    Then you open the "Enterprise Manager Console" as standalone to edit the database. Enter the network => Databases => DATABASE.world and login as sysdba => enter scheme => sapDATABASEdb => tables => kmc_dbrm_names. Here you can have a look for your property (show content). The ID belongs to you'd notice.
    After that you're changing to database kmc_dbrm_props (show content). Select (by SQL-Statement) the localnameid by the noticed number. By changing the column "typ" or "type" you can change the datas type.
    1 stands for string
    3 stands for integer
    5 stands for date
    All of the type-numbers you can find in the table kmc_dbrm_props. The content it belongs to you'll have to find out on your own. By using SQL-Statement you can change all entries you want.
    Good Luck ;-D

    Hi Prem,
    in order to see your property, you need to integrate it in a Property (Structure) Group and not only in a Property (Metadata) Group. You can create this group under "Global Services" -> "Property Structures" -> "Property Groups" and add your property to the "Group Items". Afterwards you need to add the just created group to the "Group Items" of the Property (Structure) Group "all_groups". By that you will have a new tab with your property in it.
    Alternatively, if you use the Property (Metadata) Group "default" in your property definition (and not your own group, you should be able to see your property in the "Miscellaneous" tab, without having to add it to a Property (Structure) Group.

  • Displaying property metadata in KM folder/docs presentation?

    I have created my own property metadata to categorize documents in certain folders in KM.
    I would like to display these metadata values in columns in the layout set chosen for the folder. Is there a simple way to fix this or do I have to write my own custom renderer?
    Henning

    Hi Henning,
    Yes, there is an easy way to display your own property metadata. You need to make a copy of the layout set you are using now and go edit the collection renderer.
    In the collection renderer, you should enter the name of your property in the setting "displayed properties". Beware that you might need to include the property's namespace.
    I suggest you read this document:
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a429b090-0201-0010-e79d-f67708936549
    Even though it is a fairly old document (2003), it gives you a good introduction to your flexible user interface options.

  • ARB Issue: SDK Property Metadata

    Posted today:
    SDK Property Metadata
    Please comment by tomorrow morning, Friday May 1st. Thanks!

    Hi
    I think dbms_metadata.session_transform is for functions GET_DDL, GET_DEPENDENT_DDL, and GET_GRANTED_DDL only.
    You need to use set_transform_param on htransddl handle. Add this after line 65:
          dbms_metadata.set_transform_param (htransddl, 'PRETTY', true);
          dbms_metadata.set_transform_param (htransddl, 'SQLTERMINATOR', true);
    Other transform attributes like TABLESPACE and STORAGE should also be applied to htransddl so lines 40-45 can be removed.
    You must also add some logic when setting this transform parameters as STORAGE and TABLESPACE for example can not be applied to PACKAGE object type.

  • Custom property renderer for multiple value selections of property metadata

    Hi,
    We have created custom predefined metadata properties and fetching data from SAP to display values while uploading a document from KM.Everything is working fine and values are being displayed in a dropdown.
    The standard property multi-valued displays values in checkboxex but the requirement is to allow for multiple selections in dropdown using shift ot ctrl key.
    We started creating our own property renderer by decompiling classes like allowedvalues_multivalued
    but we could not see the property on the upload screen.
    Any help is greatly appericiated.
    Thanks,
    Vasu.

    Vasu,
    Try changing the property renderer setting in your custom property.  There might be one which allows a multiple select box.  If not, you can always create your own.  The following links are helpful:

  • Update property metadata

    Hi,
    I transfered a KM folder from one portal to another.
    How can I set propety metadata from one namespace to another by code?
    For example I have a metadata called "Name" under namespace "http://mydomain1".
    The documents I transfered have metadata called "Name" under namespace "http://mydomain2".
    How can I copy the metadata from the first namespace to the second by code?

    Hi,
    Try something like this:
    IPropertyName PropNameOld = PropertyName.getPN("http://mydomain1", "Name");
    IPropertyName PropNameNew = PropertyName.getPN("http://mydomain2", "Name");
    IProperty PropOld = resource.getProperty(PropNameOld);
    IProperty PropNew = new Property(PropNameNew, PropOld.getStringValue());
    if (resource.isVersioned()) {
