QR Codes in Documaker

Anyone know if Documaker supports producing QR barcodes? You know, those barcodes that smartphones can read to link directly to a website (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_Code). Let me know if anyone is aware of Documaker supporting this. We're running Version 11.4.

Hi Aaron,
QR Code support is on the roadmap for Documaker, hopefully either in the 12.1 or 12.2 version. Personally I'll be excited to see them put to use - it's fantastic tech.

Is it posibble to code values like *000.01* into Barcode in Documaker 11.4

I am looking for the feasiblity to encode values like '*000.01*' into Barcode in Documaker 11.4
When i tried the same i got a warning message (6657) stating Invalid Barcode.
But my Barcode reader is expecting a value as mentioned above.

Is there a way to run IDS within Websphere to recieve messages through JMS, then invoke Documaker? Configuring the IDS client to use JMS within websphere seems pretty straight forward, but I cannot find information on running IDS as a server to invoke Do

Looking to move the maintenance of our IDS instances which drive Documaker MRLs from the Unix command line to within a container ( Websphere ). Using the IDS Java client with JMS is pretty easy. I cannot see how I would be able to get an IDS server running within Websphere.

IDS is not designed to run in WebSphere or any other J2EE container. It is a standalone Java application that uses native code, allows to run custom code, reads and writes files on disk, starts other processes, etc. and as such is not exactly suitable to run in J2EE. Most of such actions are not enabled (at least by default) in J2EE due to security concerns. You could run it as a service on Windows or setup to start automatically on Unix.
What exactly do you want to achieve by it being in J2EE container? Perhaps there are other ways to do the same thing?

Hi Gaétan/Experts,
Thanks for the post, we are now able to successfully perform the following :-
1. Configure Documaker Connector - After changing lot of values that was provided in the Installation Guide, which seems to be outdated. For E.g. While using SQL Server Driver, the document says we need to configure the Connection as jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver, where as the code looks for the string jdbc:sqlserver.
2. Successfully insert the values to AOR table in SQL Server.
3. Sucessfully run the connector with mock-file-conn-properties, which creates the documents generated thru Oracle Documaker to the specified destination directory.
Issue:_
1. While using the UCM Destination, we are encountering an error which is pasted below.
2. In UCM we are able to create a new document and sucessfully check in using the credentials. The same used thru Connector throws an error.
3. We are using Oracle UCM - 11.1.1.5.

Web Service call from Documaker Server?

Hi folks,
We have a process where we'd like to create a document, and import (via AddMultiPageBitmap rule) an existing external document to send with the newly-created document. This external document is stored in FileNet. We could use a Java application to read our input file, call an Webservice utility to retreive the necessary documents and put them onto the server that we'd run the Documaker engines (GenData/GenPrint) on, where they could then find and import them from. However, rather than develope a new java application to do that, we're wondering whether we can call this webservice utility from within Documaker to retreive the documents from FileNet, and either do so within the AddMultiPageBitmap rule (eliminating the need to actually place the document on the server by just returning the bitstream to the Rule in lieu of telling it the file location), or whether we can at least do so prior to the AddMultiPageBitmap rule and put each document onto the server just before calling the AddMultiPageBitmap rule.
So basically, Is it possible to do a Webservice call from GenData when running in batch on Linux? We're currently running 11.5.
Thanks,
Gregg

Gendata does support custom code, so you could, in theory, write a custom rule that calls a WEB service and writes the TIFF(any supported bitmap) to disk. After this the base Add..Bitmap rule can just pick it up and work as usual.

[Oracle Delivery Cloud|https://edelivery.oracle.com/EPD/Download/get_form?egroup_aru_number=15238196] [Oracle Delivery Cloud|https://edelivery.oracle.com/EPD/Download/get_form?egroup_aru_number=15238196] Your XML structure is something that should be reconsidered. You are attempting to use a XML structure that is documented in the Documaker XML Guide for the XML Import configuration of Documaker not the rules processor configuration. Your AFGJOB and INI files indicate that you are trying to use the rule processor configuration.
The XML Import style of XML requires you to use the structure where you specify the tags for specific use shown below under *****XML IMPORT EXAMPLE **** file. While this is valid XML and will work, it is probably the most restrictive XML design. The intent of the Import XML implementation is to make Documaker a dumb print engine - you tell it exactly what you want to include in the final output. The documentation clearly states the following on the chapter of the XML Guide that is labeled Importing and Exporting XML Files with Documaker Server.
+"Keep in mind that importing XML is not the same as using an XML file as your extract file. Import assumes you are using a specific file layout that describes your document in a predefined manner."+
It is the least flexible and requires the person deigning the forms to also understand the data structure, it cannot take advantage of any of the rule processing (RP) features that make the product worth the $$ that customers spend on it.
Documaker can use any well formed XML file (it can be successfully opened in a browser is the simplest test). You really should not mix and match the AFGJOB IfRecipUsed and the batching by recip rules - they are not intended to be a mix you are missing the AFGJOB rules that invoke batching by recip: ;BatchingByRecipINI;2;; and optionally ;BatchingByPageCountPerRecipINI;;;.
There are only three possibly two fields that you need to have consistent to use Documaker in the RP configuration: Key1, Key2 and KeyID. The Key1 and Key2 drive the group selection you can omit one if you only have one group - KeyID is used as the transction ID to track the transaction in the system (consider if there is an error). I would suggest that you possibly use sample MRLS that are available the Oracle Delivery Cloud (https://edelivery.oracle.com/EPD/Download/get_form?egroup_aru_number=15238196) part number V33403-01 as a example the DMS1 sample is fully running and may give you some better insight into how to implement.

thanks for your reply. I'm trying the SCH-request type now.
However it requires a variable named fields which filters the results as i understand its function.

You need the following attachment variables:
CONFIG=<name of the configuration which should be found in your DAP.INI>
USERID=<you should have this already>
PARTIALMATCH=Y <use this to match part of a string, example: FLO will find FLOWER and FLORIAN. Omit this value if you do not want this feature.>

KEY1=MyKey1
KEY2=MyKey2
KEY3=MyKeyID
REQTYPE=SCHIf you are unsure as to the fields in your appidx.dfd, or where to find the appidx.dfd, you'll need to check your INI files. The definition of the APPIDX location can be anywhere in the set of INI files used on the system, but generally it is in the FSISYS.INI. Note that if the paths are not absolute then they are relative to the execution of your system, usually the docserv or fap\mstrres\<mrl_name> directories.

AppIdxDfd = arc\appidx.dfdHere is a sample of the appidx.dfd, which defines the record layout of the archive:
< FIELDS >
FIELDNAME = KEY1
FIELDNAME = KEY2
FIELDNAME = KEYIDIf you just want to query all records, then omit the KEYID from the FIELDS= attachment variable. I do not recommend using that for any production application however - you will always want to limit a search as best you can to prevent open-ended queries which can be detrimental to performance.

PDF417, 2D bar code questions

Does anyone have experience (or can anyone point me to documentation) regarding the 2D bar codes supported by Documaker? We are using 11.5, and are interested in evaluating PDF417 or DataMatrix (or others) for scanning purposes. We have implemented a PDF417 solution using section rules rather than the bar code type in found in 11.5, but I am interested in using it for something other than New York ID cards. To that end, I'm not sure the PDF417 guide that I have found in the documentation section of the support site is useful, as the data we hope to bake into a PDF417 bar code wouldn't be parts of drive names, VINs, etc., I'm hoping there is a way to create our own name-value pairs for sue with the bar code. Is this possible? I have no experience with DataMatrix, so I am curious if we can implement a similar solution using that technology as well.
Thanks!
Tony

Hi Tony,
You may refer to the documentation on "Using Data Matrix 2-D Bar Codes" in the studio user guide.

Print 2 Documaker Sections at the same spot

Well, I'm trying to print 2 different documaker sections in the same form and i want to do it just in the same place. The problemm is that these are dinamyc sections and I don't know how to set the sections properties in the "position" group.
How can i print these 2 sections at the same place in the form

Hello,
Can you please be little more clear? When you set the position for any section it means you are setting the x,y position; i.e, distance from left margin and distance from top margin. How and why do you want to place 2 different dynamic sections on the same x,y. If you would try that, they will overlap on the final output.
This is what you will have to code for "Position" property on the 2nd Section you are taking about in your question.
If you are trying to place both the sections with same distance from left margin, then use the position as: (this will place one section below the other)
Left Type: Rel+0
Top Type: Max+0 or Max+ some cms or faps.
If you are trying to place both the sections with same distance from top margin, then use the position as: (this will place one section to the side other provided each of your sections are half page width or both together does not cross a page width)
Left Type: Max+0 or Max+ some cms or faps.
Top Type: Rel+0
If your dynamic sections are conditional and only one will trigger in the form, then, try
Left Type: Rel+0
Top Type: Max+0 or Max+ some cms or faps.
Documaker will automatically push the section to avoid the spacing if the other is not triggered.
Thank you.

Generate prov.xml for Creative Cloud. Return Code 27

We're trying to follow this guide (Creative Cloud Help | Using Adobe Provisioning Toolkit Enterprise Edition) to serialize a package (or something). We're stuck on generating prov.xml. My best attempt at an entry is:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\CCP\utilities\APTEE>adobe_prtk.exe --tool=VolumeSerialize --generate --serial=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx --regsuppress=ss --eulasuppress --locales=en_US --provfilepath=C:\Program Fil
es (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\CCP
It says half of this is optional, but I'm skeptical.
Anyway, I'm getting return code 27. This indicates that it is unable to edit the prov.xml file specified. I didn't specify a prov.xml file, I'm trying to make one. The syntax I'm using differs from what I found on the page I linked, as that was giving me syntax errors. I lifted this off someone else's code. I've tried just about every variation I can think of. Any help would be appreciated.

Code returns "null" and "0"s in main module - why?

I am coding a program that is in two modules. The main module serves it's standard function. The inventory class/module has three functions - 1) request stock input on 4 data points (1 String and 3 integers, one of which is a double) - 2) calculate the value of the inventory, and - 3) return string which reads out the 4 data points and the calculation showing the total value of the inventory. I've created the 3 functions in the inventory class/module, but obviously don't have them referring to each other correctly because when we come to the end of the program the output is null for the String and "0"s for the int/doubles. The code is below - any ideas about how to overcome the empty output? The code compiles fine and acts like it is going to work, but when it comes to the final command line it outputs
"null, which is item number 0, has 0 currently in stock at a price of 0.00 each. The total value of inventory in stock is 0.00"
Main module:
public class Main {
    @SuppressWarnings("static-access")
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Inventory inventory = new Inventory(); //call Inventory class
        inventory.inventoryInput();
        Inventory results = new Inventory();
        results.inventoryResults(); //call for inventoryResults in Inventory class
}Inventory module:
import java.util.Scanner;
import static java.lang.System.out;
public class Inventory
//declare and initialize variables
   int itemNumber = 0;
   String productName;
   int stockAmount = 0;
   double productCost = 0;
   double totalValue = 0;
   String inventoryResults;
   //initialize scanner
   Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
   public void inventoryInput ()
   out.println("Please enter item number: "); //prompt for item number
      itemNumber = input.nextInt();
   out.println( "Enter product name/description: "); //prompt for product name
      productName = input.next();
   out.println("Quantity in stock: ");
      stockAmount = input.nextInt(); // prompt for stock quantity
   out.println("What is the product cost for each unit? ");
      productCost = input.nextDouble(); // prompt for product cost
    } // end inventoryInput
    public double totalValue( double stockAmount, double productCost )
      totalValue = stockAmount * productCost;
      return totalValue; // return stock value
    } // end totalValue

Actually my final solution was quite simple - I moved the calculation and final formated print text statements into the body of Inventory's class code. It now works. "Works" scares me a bit.
Someone cooking dinner might rummage about in the fridge and the cupboards to see what's there. Do imaginative things with what they come up with. And, with a bit of luck come up with something tasty or, at any rate edible.
A physician deciding on a medical treatment would do well to try a more cautious approach. A specific aim would be a good thing. And a calculated appreciation of the documented effects of each medicine. And how they interact.
It's up to you to determine which approach your coding should resemble. But it seems to me that your original Main class had a perfectly good reason to exist. It was a driver class whose purpose seemed to be to create and use an Inventory. (And using an Inventory is a very different thing from being an Inventory, so it made perfect sense to have two different classes.) To me it works or not, depending on whether it fufills that purpose. And what you have done is not so much solve the problem of it not working, as avoid that problem.
(If by "moved" you mean that the outputting now occurs as part of - or is called from - inventoryInput() then that is not a good thing. The input method should input: just input.)
I think that is because once the original input was loaded into the program (when I entered product number, name, price and value), the entries were dropped when the code switched to the next step. I think your intuition is entirely correct. In particular look at what your original main() method does (my comments replacing yours):
Inventory inventory = new Inventory(); // (A) Create an inventory...
inventory.inventoryInput(); // ... and put stuff into it
    // (B) Create some new entirely different (and empty) inventory...
Inventory results = new Inventory();
results.inventoryResults(); // ... and print its contentsInstead of creating a second inventory, try printing the results of the first one.

Whoops ... just read reply 2.
It might sense, though to call totalValue() at the end your input method (because at that point the total value has changed). Or do away with that method - which you worked on getting right in your other thread ;)

Sample source code for fields mapping in expert routine

Hi All
Iam writing the expert routine from dso to cube for example I have two fields in dso FLD1,FLD2
same fields in infocube also ,can any body provide me sample abap code to map source fields to target fields in expert routine,your help will be heighly appreciatble,it's an argent.
regards
eliaz

Basic would be ;
RESULT_FIELDS -xxx = <SOURCE_FIELDS> -xxx
you have the source fields as source, and result fields for as the target. In between you can check some conditions as in other routines of transformation.
BEGIN OF tys_SC_1, shows your source fields ( in your case DSO chars and key figures)
BEGIN OF tys_TG_1, , shows your result fields ( in your case Cube characteristics)
Hope this helps

Cannot delete file from external hard drive (error code 36) in Finder, but Terminal is ok

I have a relatively new Macbook Pro Retina 15" and have a Western Digital 1 TB Passport. I've been using the passport for about a year now without any problems on older Macbooks in my house. I used to be able to read and write to this drive no problem. I am using the Paragon NTFS for Mac software in order to read and write to the NTFS drive. When I navigate through the drive in Finder, if I try to create a new folder, I do not have a problem. If I try to delete that folder I just created, I get this error:
The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “untitled folder” can’t be read or written.
(Error code -36)
The folder has nothing in it whatsoever. I just created it. But if I go to Terminal and I run
rm -rf "untitled folder"
This works fine. Why is Terminal acting different than Finder? This does not happen on my other Macbooks. Thanks in advance.

Thanx for such qucik reply!!! The pages were great, it had an answer for my problem, but unfortunately it also involved me dealing with it only on the MacIntosh HD itself, not on mounted external drive I suppose... So it didn't work they say that there is an icon in the left corner indicating locked folder - I don't see any icon on it. It says you can untick the box to unlock the folder - there is no tick to be unticked. Finally, they say that if I don't have permition or rights I cannot delete it. But how do i change permittion which already says that i can read and write in it? So everything appears to be normal only I cannot delete it. there is not even any warnig telling me I don't have enough rights, it just requires the password and after me typing it in it makes the sound of scraping paper but does nothing more. I aslo had some problems with emptying Trash after being seemingly succesful with one file and had got so far to have them appear in the Trash (no clue how this one actully got there though..) I followd the advice and emptied the Trash with Terminal. The Folder is still there but it shows 0 Kb... So far so good BUT: It is still on the external drive, so I obviously only managed to copy it into the Trash!!! Phew, innit a bit too tight to poor owners, this macbook?? I want my rights back!

Report generation failed----error code:-17205; Access Denied.

Hi, All
    i have a trouble about report generation.it seems the error happened at the "write UUT report"--this step is teststand report generation'DLL.
    detail:
    An error occurred calling 'Save' in 'Report' of 'NI TestStand 2010 SP1 API'
Access Denied.. Error writing to file 'D:\program\seq\xxx.xml'.
The file might be open in another application. If file access is intermittently denied, you should try disabling the Microsoft FindFast utility.
    error code:-17205; Access Denied.
    locationtep 'Write UUT Report' of sequence 'Single Pass' in 'SequentialModel.Seq'
    How to fix it?
    Thanks a lot.
BR

Hm, it looks like the file might be open in another application. If you see that file accesss is intermittently denied, you should try disabling the Microsoft FindFast utility.
