Quantity field for user input in interactive alv

hi,
i have created an interactive alv report that allows user to key in quantity fields using fm "REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY'. then quantity field is referred to MARD-LABST for instance, with 3 decimals point. When i tried to key in quantity as '9', it then will be converted into 0.009 by using cl_gui_alv_grid->check_changed_data( ). May i know what the root causes are and also how to resolve it using same fm??? Thanks.

Hi,
In the field catalog, for the field set the attribute DECIMALS to 3.
This should resolve your issue.

Sagar

How to prompt for user input in Forms

How do I prompt for user input in Forms?
I am writing a piece of code where the user may choose, by clicking either of three buttons on an alert, to have the system assign a value to a variable, to input a value or to do neither?
If the user chooses to input the value I want to update a set of database fields with the value.
I have thought about showing a view where the value may be entered into a field displayed on that view. The value will be assigned to the variable by the user clicking a command button. The question I have in this case though, is whether, after the command button is clicked, control will be passed back to the code that called the view in the first place?

Desgordon,
This can be accomplished by displaying your message to the user using an Alert. I use 3 different Alerts (Note, Caution and Stop) in my forms and they are inherited from a central source file (such as an Object Library or a Template Form) so they can be used by all of my Forms. You can set the text of the Alert using the SET_ALERT_PROPERTY() built-in and capture what button the user presses with the SHOW_ALERT() built-in. Additionally, if you need more than one button to be displayed in an alert, you use the SET_ALERT_BUTTON_PROPERTY() built-in to rename the default button or to add up to a total of three buttons in the alert. Here's an example:
DECLARE
   Alert_ID       ALERT;
   v_AlertType    VARCHAR2(10) := 'CAUTION';
   v_AlertTitle     VARCHAR2(25);
   v_AlertText    VARCHAR2(150);
   n_AlertButton NUMBER;
BEGIN
   v_AlertTitle := 'Title of Alert';
   v_AlertText := 'This is message to the user.';
   /* Code leading up to the decision point. */
   alert_id := FIND_ALERT(v_AlertType);
   /* Note: I only set the Label of Button 2 because the default button 1 label is 'OK' */
   SET_ALERT_BUTTON_PROPERTY(v_AlertType, ALERT_BUTTON2, LABEL, 'Cancel');
   SET_ALERT_PROPERTY(Alert_ID, v_AlertTitle, v_AlertText);
   n_AlertButton := SHOW_ALERT(Alert_ID);
/* Now I can test the value of n_AlertButton for 1 or 2 to find out what button the user selected. */
IF ( n_AlertButton = 1 ) THEN
     /* Do something, because the user selected 'OK' */
ELSE
     /* It is assumed at this point that the user selected 'CANCEL' */
     /* Stop processing any further. */
     RAISE form_trigger_error;
END IF;
END:Hope this helps.

But if you call your procedure in that button then yes 'control will be passed back to the code'...

Subcontract GRN - disable quantity field for 543 movement type

Dear All,
1) while making the GRN for subcontract PO the raw material will get consumed by 543 movement type but here the field is editable and we need to make it uneditable
2) also if you might have observed that raw material qty will be calculated as per ratio but if i change the semi-finished matl qty the consumption qty of RM is not amended immdiately and if we need to take as per ratio in PO, we need to close the line by pressing " + " and amend the semi-finished qty and system will calculate the ratio and you can check by again pressing "+"
this is certainly not desirable and we need the change in RM qty immedietely after changing semifinished goods qty.
Please suggest me how to make it without help of ABAPER.

Hi,
Saying with regret that it is not possble in standard SAP .we had faced the same problem at my cleint side.We had gone for a custom development where the quantity field against the Input material will be not editable .

How to make Flash to wait for user input

Hi,
I found this PHP script, then I made some changes to make it
FEED the Flash user interface with online user input.
The main concept of this script is WAITING for user input, so
it shows the messages and then go to next line and so on.
The user input go to directly to TEXT file which writes in
lines, each line has a unique id = (mag_id).
There "get_msge.php" which works as the middleware between
FLASH and messages text file.
The problem, its doesn’t show any data while there are
data in the text file.
Help here please, best regards.
This is the link of
problem illustartion
AS is:
// create an object to store the variables
varReceiver = new LoadVars();
// load the variables from the text file
varReceiver.load("get_msg.php?file_id=1&msg_id=1",
"POST");
// trigger something - when the variables finish loading
varReceiver.onLoad = function(){
//the variables have finished loading
if (this.msg_id == 1) {
_root.xmsg1_swf.text = this.msg;
_root.xmsg1_ch.text = this.msg;
gotoAndPlay("line2");
} else {WAIT }
PHP is:
<?php
//get these values from the FLASH
$file_id_swf = $_POST ['file_id'];
$file_name = "messages/messages".$file_id_swf.".txt";
$msg_id_swf = $_POST ['msg_id'];
// [0] ."||".[1] ."||".[2] ."||". [3] ."||".[4]."||". [5].
//$msg_id."||".date."||".time."||".$from."||".$to."||".$msg.
$fp = fopen ($file_name, 'rb');
while (!feof ($fp))
$msg_txt = fgets ($fp, 1024);
$line = explode ("||", $msg_txt);
$msg_id = $line[0];
$from = $line[3];
$to = $line[4];
$msg = utf8_encode ($line[5]);
if ($msg_id == $msg_id_swf)
echo
"msg_id=".$msg_id."&from=".$from."&to=".$to."&msg=".$msg;
}//while
fclose ($fp);
?>

Well, given the things that you've written, I don't think it
could. There technically isn't any code in flash that lets it
"wait." In order to "wait," you must run the script over again
until some condition is met.
However, your code does look accurate. Why do you need to
wait? The onLoad function will be invoked WHEN something is loaded.
So, I don't see the reason for the "waiting."
In addition to that, I would like to say that using text
files isn't that great with flash. I have done this before and
noticed several problems with using text files. The biggest problem
is that the text files are cached after being loaded. Every time
you re-load it again, you will get what you got the first time
until you reset your cache (ie. close your browser). I suggest
using MySQL. (Just my thought.)

Asking for user input in the middle of a function

Here's my issue.
I need to launch and input window in the middle of a function for user input. Before I can continue through the function I need a response back from the user first. Psuedo code below:
function
     function begins
     pop up window is launched to ask for user input
     function continues after users submits input
     user input from pop up window is used in function return value
Let me know if you need more clarification but this is essentially what I'm attempting to do.

The way actionScript works it isn’t really designed to work that way
Is there any reason why you have to only use one function as you have written
I think you really do need to split up your code into sections that a, set up the pop-up with event listeners waiting for the input to be completed, trigger the pop up with user input, then have a handler function that then interprets the results of the user action.
Trying to force the system into a closed loop while waiting will be a bad idea.
By using a pop-up or an alert window that is set to be modal, you are effectively stopping your application doing anything else until the user input has been completed, but still not locking the app into a closed loop. Imagine what would happen if you did put the system into a closed loop, the mouse movement wouldn’t be updated, the screen wouldn’t refresh and the system wouldn’t be able to handle your user input. the reason for using async model is you are able to let the system still do all its background task (move the mouse, give inputs focus, keep the screen drawn etc) but still tell a part of your app to ‘wait for input’ before carrying on it execution of your logic
Do you come from another programming language? Maybe one that uses less of an OOP approach? I only ask, as the method you are describing is much more like how I had to program when I worked on computers years ago as an assembly programmer.
In actionscript and most other modern languages and Oss you don’t have total control of the system and cant lock it into an action as you describe.
You need to have an asynchronous approach to situations like you describe and let the system run in the back ground while you are waiting for input (or date from a server for that matter)
Please excuse me if I am telling you things you already know.
What exactly is your use case for this? Maybe if we knew exactly what you are working on I might be able to offer a solution that would make sense for your particular situation.
Hope all is going well and please feel free to contact me if you are stuck

Create a screen for user input in BI

Moderator message: please search for available documentation, these forums are no substitute for ABAP training.
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Dec 10, 2010 8:37 PM

I'm afraid that I cannot get it. I had a look at the docs you suggested before posting, and still, no luck (...)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(dialog, "Please input info");Can you please tell me what I'm doing wrong and I cannot add the JDialog to the JOptionPane?Re-read the API and tutorial. JOptionPane is meant specifically to spare you from instantiating manually a JDialog. The showXxxDialog(...) methods do create a JDialog of their own, based on the contents supplied as arguments.
In particular, using the 2-arguments variation showMessageDialog(Component parentComponent, Object message):
- The first argument parentComponent is not be the dialog you want to display, but the component over which you want the dialog to appear. The most typical value are this or null.
- The second argument is the "message" to display, but as described in the API, it can be a JComponent, that is, even a JPanel with child widgets (in a word, a JPanel containing the specific form you'd display in the dialog if you were writing the dialog manually).
Again, at the risk of insisting densely, I'm only quoting the API an tutorial, so please read them attentively.
Edited by: jduprez on Nov 2, 2009 2:29 PM - Sorry Kevin, hadn't seen you latest reply. I completely subscribe to the thought process you recommend.
Edited by: jduprez on Nov 2, 2009 2:32 PM
Thinking about it further, I don't completely subscribe... Indeed it looks like a bad idea to make the OP wonder about dialog.setVisible() when JOptionPane enables him to forget about the hand-made dialog. I stand by my own advice ("JDialog" should not even appear in this code extract).

"catching" a prompt for user input and answering it through zenity?

I'm trying to write a script (or multiple scripts) that will allow me to use command-line only applications via user defined actions in my file manager without having to open a terminal. Now I realize this basic functionality is already available, but as it stands I am unable to respond to command-line prompts for user input without opening a terminal. Is it possible to write a shell script that would act as a wrapper and allow me to use zenity (or another popup program) to respond to such queries?
For example if I used a command-line program that prompted me for a password, could I "catch" that prompt with a shell script and answer it through another program, such as zenity?
Last edited by falconheart (2011-01-16 22:37:25)

The easier way to do this is to collect the info with zenity first, then pass it on the command line. If the program insists on prompting, then you could try feeding it the info with redirection if it accepts it from stdin. For example
command < info.txt
where info.txt is a temp file created by your script which contains whatever you want entered into the prompts. This will work in some cases.

How to put a little textbox in a regular applet window for user input

Hi i was just wondering if anybody knows how to draw a text box, (for user input), in a applet window and be able to put it in a specific spot, like when you draw a rectangle.
I have searched the web and have not found any answers, but i have seen projects that do this but they dont have the source code.

JTextField?

Need Help waiting for user input.

I've got a simple card game, which I've pretty much made all with swing. I have a JTextField and a JButton. I want the user to input a number into the textfield and the click the button which fires the action listener. This then takes the text and reads it and set a boolean hasBid to true. I don't want to program to continue until this has happened so I made an empty while(!hasBid) loop. The first time through, the program starts and stop until the user inputs something and click the button. The second time through, however, the whole window freezes. For somereason object aren't even being displayed which are displayed before this while loop. Without the while loop, everything runs fine, but the program won't stop to wait for input.
So, my question pretty much is how can I get the program to stop for user input in a function which will be called multiple times. I don't want to use a JOptionPane or anyother pop-up box. If my way won't work, I'd really like to know of another way. Thanks for any help!

you simply need to separate the functionality of your input object and the card game into two threads. as sanbingo said, running in a while loop prevents your GUI from even drawing its components.
Remember: AWT/Swing is an event driven interface! so only events can/should cause some action to happen.
i'd properly implement an event listener which is fired when the input is received. the listener is your game class which upon receipt of the event starts playing. when its done, its done, ie doesn't do anything until it receives an new event from your input object.

How do you keep a VI running while waiting for user input?

I have a VI that:
1. The user enters set points.
2. The user starts the VI and the VI sends the set points to an external process via a serial interface.
3. The VI stops running.
4 The user waits for the external process to complete.
5. Repeat sequence. Go to Step 1.
This works well except for one small problem. Starting the VI in step 2 causes an external micro controller to reset. During the reset it will ignore set point commands. To get around this problem a delay has been added between when the VI opens the serial port and when the VI sends the set points to the external process Is it possible to keep a VI running continuously in this type of application, thereby eliminating the start up and shut down of the serial interface?
If yes, how do you keep a VI running while waiting for user input?
Howard

The ones for the event structure specifically. I'm posting from my phone. Look at the basic ones for user input. even a simple while loop with a boolean and a case statement would work.

Adding quantity field for the same material number in Table control

Hello Experts,
I have an requirement, where I need to add the quantity field when the material number is repeated in a table control.
Here I show the pop-up message "Material already exists, do you want to add the quantity". If the user clicks on Yes I need to add the quantity.
I created the pop-up message using the FM " POPUP_TO_CONFIRM" and tried to add the quantity filed using COLLECT statement but I couldn't because my non-numeric field value will be different and it will insert new entry with same material in my internal table.
I have a z data base table & internal table with the below fields in it.

Prompting for user input in nested select statements

I recently rewrote a query to use a nested select statement instead of specifying every SELECT field on the GROUP BY line. Here's the query which works perfectly with hard-coded values of '030', '01/01/11', and '12/31/11'.
SELECT T0.[CardName] AS Customer, T0.[CardCode] as 'Cust ID', T0.[Phone1] as Phone, T0.[CntctPrsn] as 'Contact Person', T0.[Address], T0.[City], T0.[State1] as State, T0.[ZipCode] as 'Zip Code', T0.[Country], T1.[TotalSales]
FROM OCRD T0
INNER JOIN
 (SELECT I.[CardCode] AS CardCode, SUM(I.[DocTotal]) AS TotalSales
 FROM OINV I
 WHERE left (I.[CardCode], 3) = '030' AND (I.[DocDate] >= '01/01/11' AND I.[DocDate] <= '12/31/11')
 GROUP BY I.[CardCode]) T1
ON T0.[CardCode] = T1.[CardCode]
ORDER BY T0.[CardName]
When I try to prompt for the left 3 characters of the CardCode (or the dates), ie.
 WHERE left (I.[CardCode], 3) = [%0] AND (I.[DocDate] >= '01/01/11' AND I.[DocDate] <= '12/31/11')
I get an error "Column 'OCRD.CardName' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause".
It's like putting a user variable in the inner SELECT made it part of the outer SELECT which is exactly what I was trying to avoid by re-writing this query with the inner SELECT.
Can anyone explain what SQL Server is doing here and how to fix it?

Thanks Gordon. That's how I originally wrote the query and it works fine. But I was disturbed that I had to GROUP BY every field in my SELECT statement when I really only wanted to group by CardCode. So I did some research and came up with this where the inner select still groups by only CardCode and still takes user input. I don't really understand why you need the commented SELECT statements in the SET lines, but you do. Something about using real table fields for variables.
DECLARE @startDate datetime
DECLARE @endDate datetime
DECLARE @rep varchar(10)
SET @rep /* SELECT T0.[CardCode] FROM ORDR T0 WHERE T0.[CardCode] */ = '[%0]'
SET @startDate /* SELECT T0.[DocDate] FROM OINV T0 WHERE T0.[DocDate] */ = '[%1]'
SET @endDate /* SELECT T0.[DocDate] FROM OINV T0 WHERE T0.[DocDate] */ = '[%2]'
SELECT T0.[CardName] AS Customer, T0.[CardCode] as 'Cust ID', T0.[Phone1] as Phone, T0.[CntctPrsn] as 'Contact Person', T0.[Address], T0.[City], T0.[State1] as State, T0.[ZipCode] as 'Zip Code', T0.[Country], T1.[TotalSales]
FROM OCRD T0
INNER JOIN
 (SELECT I.[CardCode] AS CardCode, SUM(I.[DocTotal]) AS TotalSales
 FROM OINV I
 WHERE left (I.[CardCode], 3) = @rep AND (I.[DocDate] >= @startDate AND I.[DocDate] <= @endDate)
 GROUP BY I.[CardCode]) T1
ON T0.[CardCode] = T1.[CardCode]

WORKFLOW PROCESS IS NOT WAITING FOR USER INPUT LIKE RE-ASSIGN FUNCTION

I am using Stand alone Workflow 2.6, In my workflow process
which is an Issue tracking system which is working fine. On Enhancement I would like to create my own RE-ASSIGN function which will, Change the ownership of an issue totally to other user.
For this I Created a package(CHANGE_OWNER.CREATE)which will show list of Users and Comment field(Just like Re-Assign).
Here user can pick other user, and add comment,
once submit for that Item key I am updating the workflow notification table so that paritcular issue ownership will be changed.
In my workflow process I created a lookup code called "Change Owner". On click of Change Owner it will call the Function
in workflow process which will call CHANGE_OWNER.CREATE, here
the workflow process supposed to wait and get the User to be
changed. BUT THE PROCESS IS NOT WAITING, IT JUST DISPLAYED THE
SCREEN AND CONTINUED THE WORKFLOW PROCESS. I WANT THE MY
WORKFLOW PROCESS TO BE ACT AS RE-ASSINGN BUTTON WHICH WILL WAIT
FOR THE USER INPUT.
HOW TO DO IT.
Thanks
Bala.

Hi Bala
What enhancements were you adding to the Workflow Reassign/Delegate feature, which included being able to add comments? A good idea is to look for any differences between how workflow implements the reassign feature, and your customization.
Also, make sure you only use the Public documented PL/SQL APIs and do not update the tables directly to ensure no Support or Upgrade Issues.
Cheers
Mark
