Rendering Dynamic Attribute in PDF

Hi,
      I need to render a PDF dynamically.
If I have a context node in java web dynpro with 3 attributes
Ex: Employee - Node
      - empId - Attr1
      - empName - Attr2
      - city - Attr3
But I can add an attribute(country) dynamically and this attribute has to be displayed in the dynamic Form as a Label/Text View pair. Is this possible? Do I need to write a Javascript for this using the form designer.
   Actually we need to add dynamic configuration. Here for all those attributes that are available at Design time. I can drag-drop in the form Designer and create a TextView/Label for these attributes. I can write a Javascript in the form to make the attributes(Lable/TextView) as visible or invisble based on the selection of the corresponding attributes in the web dynpro side.
   But I need to know how to do the same for a dynamic attribute that is created in Web dynpro at Run-time?

Hi Trikanth,
example javascript for hiding textField:
xfa.resolveNode("data.subPage1.subFlowed.TextField1").presence="hidden";
I think that http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/articles/lc_designer_scripting_basics/lc_designer_scripting_basics.pdf can help you, especially pages 11 and 20 (To insert object reference syntax automatically).
And as Krish wrote your form must be dynamic for this functionality.

Rendering dynamic layout on PDF

Hello All,

Unable to delete the dynamic attribute of a VO

Hi,
I’m trying to create Dynamic attributes to the VO(view Object) in AMImpl.java with below code:
Step 1:
OAViewObjectImpl personCompVO = this.getEDPersonListVO();
String attrName = "Attribute Test”;
personCompVO.addDynamicAttribute(attrName);
Step2: I’ve assigned a value to the above attribute at run time as:
OAViewObjectImpl personCompVO = this.getEDPersonListVO();
RowSetIterator personIterator = personCompVO.findRowSetIterator("personCompVO");
personCurrentRow = (OARow) personIterator.next();
String attrName = "Attribute Test”;
String profLevel = “Test Value”;
personCurrentRow.setAttribute(attrName,profLevel);
Step3: I’ve attached the above create attribute as a column to a table and rendering on the page in CO as,
OATableBean tableBean = (OATableBean)webBean.findIndexedChildRecursive("EDPersonListTableRN");
String attrName = "Attribute Test”;
OAMessageStyledTextBean column = (OAMessageStyledTextBean)createWebBean(pageContext,MESSAGE_STYLED_TEXT_BEAN,null,”Test Column”);
column.setPrompt(”Test Column”);
column.setViewUsageName("EDPersonListVO");
column.setViewAttributeName(attrName);
Step1,2&3 are successfully done.
But, since I’ve created a dynamic attribute to the VO at run time; I want that created attribute to be deleted at run time too. I’m not able to find any method that can delete the dynamic attribute at run time.
Please help me out.
Regards
Manikanta Panigrahi

Hi Anand,
I've tried the below two but not issue not got solved.
1. vo.clearCache()
2. Got the query bofore creating runtime attribute using vo.getQuery. Put it in session using pageCOntext.setTransactionValue()
and set the query again when you want to remove the attribute using vo.setQuery()

Access dynamic attributes BPM; error while activating the process in sxi

hi everybody,
I have to access dynamic attributs in a BPM condition. I thought I could achive this when I click the radiobutton "contextobject" in the condition editor.
When using the value-help button on the contextobject a huge list of objects is shown for selection.
Strange to me is that also the radionbutton "interface-variable" is checked. I can not uncheck this radiobutton. But this makes the error while activating:
"Containerelement 'IDOC_'MyContainerelement'{XSDSIMPLE::xsd:string;SHeaderSUBJECT:ht' does not exist".
Has anybody expirience using the dynamic attributes/contextobjekts in BPM?
Thanks, Regards Mario

Hi all,
it seems to be impossible to access the attributes:

Dynamic Images in PDF Report

Hi,
I want to create Badges from employee table (ID, NAME, JOB_TITLE, PHOTO). I downloaded and installed a demo application "USING DYNAMIC IMAGES IN PDF REPORT". It works fine with smale images < 20K. I'm getting the following error for images > 20K :
"ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: raw variable length too long"
it seems like a buffer problem.
could you pls help to solve this problem
Thanks,
Ribhi

Hi Carsten
That was exactly* I was looking for. Maybe I should Google more in German ;-)
The main problem was that I defined my image outside the first repeating group (that doesn't repeat, it's always just one object) - the first group is followed by 7 more.
Just like the "Name" (that's positioned outside the group in the document header), I positioned the image above the table representing the group.
Doing that, the "Name" is filled correctly, the Image only when the Output Format is Excel or HTML - not Word or PDF ... makes no sense but that's tje way it is.
After moving the image inside the group....it works great!
(One more thing...the image size is fixed to the image you use as "dummy". Is there any way to make that more flexible, because now some scaling happens...)???
@Trent: That was the way we initially did it, but when the size of the row exceeds 32K...you know what happens.. And even with a small image the 32K limit is hit easily
The way I use it now (very similar to Carsten's description) there is no limit....
Thank you all!

Hi All,
I request you all to let me know how to give an approach to the following requirement.
REQUIREMENT: I have to create a dynamic attribute in UME for each user and the read the attribute on lead selection of a table having list of Users.
 On lead selection, the dynamic attribute value should be either true or false. Based on this value the rest of the application specific operations wil be taken care.
 If a particular User does not have the dynamic attribute associated to it, then we need to create the same.
Looking forwarrd for your help.

Dynamic Attribute in AS2 Receiver

Hello,
in the Seeburger AS2 Receiver channel I have found "AS Message ID" in the last of possible Dynamic Attributes. How do I set this one, so what is the name of the dynamic configuration key. Any idea on this?

Let me expalin you the complete thing.
In mapping i m using this UDF for dynamic subject.
DateFormat dfCurrentDate = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
DateFormat dfCurrentTime = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss.SS");
Date dCurrentDate = new Date();
String strCurrentDate = dfCurrentDate.format(dCurrentDate) + "T" + dfCurrentTime.format(dCurrentDate) + "Z";
String strSubject="Literal"+ "_" + strCurrentDate;
// Dynamic Subject
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey keySubject = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://seeburger.com/xi/common/dtSubject", "DYNSUBJECT");
conf.put(keySubject,strSubject);
return "";
In receiver service I have used "localejbs/Seeburger/AttribMapper" module.
Parameter name http://seeburger.com/xi/common/dtSubject
Parameter value @http://seeburger.com/xi/common/dtSubject/DYNSUBJECT
In moni I can see the dynamic configuration tab(neither Tab nor value)
But in RWB comm. channel monitoring I can see in Audit log but not in SOAP document.
Hope i have cleared you..
Thanks

Need Dynamic attributes for XI adapter to use in Dynamic Configuration ..!!

Hi Friends,
We are planning send message to different receivers through XI adapter by using Dynamic Configuration.
Can anyone please tell me what are the dynamic attributes used for XI adapter.
In my scenario, I want to pass the Service Number and Path prefix of XI adpater dynamically by using sender ID from Idoc payload.
I know how to use the dynamic configuration UDF in message mapping. But I don't know the dynamic attributes which we can pass to Service Number and Path prefix of XI adpater.
Kindly suggest ..
Thanks
Deepthi.

Hi Sourabh,
>> You need to set these attributes explicitly in the adapter configuration..
Can you please elaborate on this like how to implement this? Do we need to use any module configuration in the adapter?
We will use XI adapter only while sending the data directly from IE without using any feautures of AE (like adapters, modules etc). It is like directly sending data from ABAP stack without using J2EE stack. That is the reason we can't use any Modules in XI adpater and it is in disabled by default.
When I checked in SXMB_MONI.. as you said details are found in
- <SAP:Attribute>
<SAP:Name>host</SAP:Name>
<SAP:Value>10.190.25.16</SAP:Value>
</SAP:Attribute>
- <SAP:Attribute>
<SAP:Name>httpDestination</SAP:Name>
<SAP:Value />
</SAP:Attribute>
- <SAP:Attribute>
<SAP:Name>path</SAP:Name>
<SAP:Value>/rcvA/receiver</SAP:Value>
</SAP:Attribute>
- <SAP:Attribute>
<SAP:Name>port</SAP:Name>
<SAP:Value>8210</SAP:Value>
</SAP:Attribute>
XI adapter uses mainly three parameters Host, Port and Path.
I want to pass any two of these values dynamically to achieve my solution. Can you please suggest your solution how we can implement it.

Dynamic Attributes with UDF - NullPointerException

Hello,
I want to set the file name of an file receiver by means of setting dynamic attributes in an UDF.
I use the following code and map the output to the root node of the target message (one input variable is var1)
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String myFileName = var1;
conf.put(key, myFileName);
return "";
When I want to test the mapping using the test tab I get a null pointer exception:
Exception:[java.lang.NullPointerException] in class com.sap.xi.tf
Could the reason be, that setting dynamic attributes does not work when testing a mapping as the mapping has to be called by the IE runtime or is there any other reason?

Hi Florain,
I can understand, but that is how it is designed because the filename paramter can be picked up only during the runtime. But if you use other parameters like interface, sender name etc you can test it in mapping. Please go to test tab and click on parameters tab. There you see few parameters for runtime also. You can put some value there and then you can test the mapping and you will not receive that error. You dont have filename there, so thats the reason why you are getting error. Hope in next release SAP would come up with this option.

Dynamic Images in PDF and Escaping Special Characters

I used the following to create my own PDFs with dymnamic images:
http://marcsewtz.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html (Dynamic Images in PDF - What 32k Limit? )
I have installed this application on Oracle's free workspace to test.
The issue I am having is that when there is a special character in the description, such as <>'"& then the the PDF will not open. I have tried using the dmbs_xmlgen.convert to convert the description but haven't had any luck.
I'm a complete novice with xml. Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Glen

I have been able to find a solution, but it's not completely perfect. I have changed the "description" field as follows:
XMLCdata(replace(description,''&'',''and'')) description,
The characters greater than (>), less than (<), single qoute('), and double quote (") can now all be in the description and will not cause errors. For some reason, I couldn't get the & not to give an error no matter what I tried, so I just replaced the & with the word "and". This solution will work for my needs, but it would be nice to be able to get the & to display.
Does anyone know of a way to get the & to display correctly?
Thanks again,
Glen
The complete code I am using is below:
declare
l_print_layout clob;
l_xml_data clob;
begin
-- load print layout from database
for c1 in (
select layout from eba_pdfimg_layouts where id = :P1_LAYOUT
) loop
l_print_layout := wwv_flow_utilities.blob_to_clob(c1.layout );
end loop;
-- generate XML data
for c2 in (
select dbms_xmlgen.getxml('
select
id,
file_name,
mime_type,
XMLCdata(replace(description,''&'',''and'')) description,
-- description,
blob2clobase64(image,''Y'') image
from eba_pdfimg_images
') xml_data from dual
) loop
l_xml_data := c2.xml_data;
end loop;
-- download print document
wwv_flow.g_page_text_generated := true;

Dynamic Tables in PDF - repeating Header row in all pages

Hi ,
I have created a dynamic table in PDF, When I add rows, the table is spanning to next page, and I should get the header row in all pages. But, I am getting the header row only for the 2nd page(In Header row properties, I have choosed the header row to be displayed in all pages). I need the Header row to be displayed in all pages.
To see the previous thread, Click [here|Dynamic Table - same data repeating in all rows;.
Thanks and Regards,
Prabhakar.

Hi Prabhakar,
Try out with following step
Header Row -> Binding -> Select the check box
Repeat Row for each Data item (Min Count 1)
Please let me know if this is working or not.

Seeburger AS2 Adapter - Dynamic Attributes

Dear all,
We have a scenario where, we are sending an IDOC from our SAP system via XI to one of our partner using AS2.
We have to manipulate the file name at the receiver end using the dynamic attributes of the AS2 communication channel.
As per the documentation and the following threads
Re: File to AS2 File Name? we have done the necessary configuration in the communication channel. The following activites are done
Selected the checkbox "Use dynamic attributes"
Under the Module tab
In Processing sequence added a new entry
Number 1
Module Name : localejbs/Seeburger/solution/as2
Module Type : Local enterprise bean
Module Key : "dynfile"
Under the Module Configuration added the following details
Module key : "dynfile"
Parameter Name : "http://seeburger.com/xi/AS2/dtAS2FileName"
Parameter Value : "DYNFILENAME"
However, I understand that this configuration is incomplete, as somewhere i need to pass the value to the variable "DYNFILENAME".
As per the thred Re: File to AS2 File Name?, Mr Srinivas Reddy mentioned 5 steps, however I am not clear about the step 3 & 4.
FYI : What I want to map as the file name is the Parter Profile in the EDIDC40 segment of the idoc and the date+time stamp
Many thanks for the help , in advance
Regards : Bobby Bal

Hi,
Use the below UDF in your mapping..
public String FileName(String a,Container container){
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters()
.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://seeburger.com/xi/AS2","dtSubject");
conf.put(key, a);
As per your requirement, Use Concatenate function Idoc + Date + Time .
Pass the resultant value to the UDF and pass this to any unused Target node.
IDOC + Time+Date --> UDF --> Target node.
In your receiver AS2 adapter, Click on use dynamic attributes and Subject check boxes.
If you want to use other Dynamic attributes like dtAS2FileName, dtAS2ContentType ..
Simply replace the dtSubject with dtAS2FileName or dtAS2ContentType . No need to use any modules.
Thanks
Deepthi.

Error in committing data while using dynamic attributes

Hi,
Module: Performance Management
Page: Give Final Ratings: Main Appraiser
Here, I have used dynamic attributes to show the competency name without segments.
I have added this attribute through controller and i passed value to this attribute in the same ProcessRequest method.
But, when the manager tries to complete the appraisal for his employee by pressing the continue button in the above mentioned page, the following exception is throwing.
"This competence already exists within the assessment."
Is this dynamic attribute will be the problem for this?
can any one please tell me?
Thanks in advance,
SAN

Hi,
If you added the column from Extended Controller. It should be a transient attribute to the VO and I think it should not create any issues.
Error "This competence already exists within the assessment." looks like from an FND Message , You can try to debug this issue by finding the FND Message Name corresponding to the error and search the Message Name in the seeded code.

Easy and efficient way to set dynamic attributes

My integration scenario is quite complex involving many different receivers and an integration process. For some receivers I have to set dynamic attributes.
I know that I can set them by using a UDF, however in my case I mostly use XSLT so this is not applicable.
Is there any other way to do this relatively easy so that I can avoid Java Mappings? Problem ist that I would need to use several Java Mappings to set the attributes where no transformation to the payload itself is taking place which seems to be too much for me. Especially when I consider that these Java Mappings are hard to maintain as they have to be imported again and again if any changes occur.
So my question is:
1. Do I really have to go for several Java Mappings just to set some dynamic attributes ?
2. If so, should I use different Java Packages or is it advisable to leave all Java Mappings in one package?

Hi Florian,
yes, you can!
set dyn atts in XSLT:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:map="java:java.util.Map" xmlns:dyn="java:com.sap.aii.mapping.api.DynamicConfiguration" xmlns:key="java:com.sap.aii.mapping.api.DynamicConfigurationKey">
<xsl:if test="REFERENCEQUALIFIER='MSU'">
 <xsl:variable name="dynamic-conf" select="map:get($inputparam, 'DynamicConfiguration')"></xsl:variable>
 
 <xsl:variable name="dynamic-key" select="key:create('http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail', 'MAILADRESS_SU')"></xsl:variable>
 <xsl:variable name="dummy" select="dyn:put($dynamic-conf, $dynamic-key, $MAILADRESS)"></xsl:variable>
 <xsl:comment>Mailadresse SU ermittelt: <xsl:value-of select="$MAILADRESS"></xsl:value-of>
 </xsl:comment>
Hoffe es hilft.

Extended receiver determination and Dynamic attributes

Hello,
is it possible to access dynamic attributes within an extended receiver determination? Can I modify / set dynamic attributes of an XI message within an UDF in the extended receiver determination mapping?
In detail: In my scenario I want to use an extended rec. determination, make a lookup in a DB inside the determination in order to define the receiver, and based on the lookup result I want to add some information as dynamic attributes to the XI message, which then can be accessed in the interface determination as conditions.
Thanks,
Chris
