Restrict the values on variables screen

I've a variable on report screen which I want to restrict the values getting from master data. Variable is a authorization variable type. So I can't set default values. I need to restrict the values for example "00D*".
At result user should see the master data list values which starts with "00D".
Cheers,

SELECT_OPTIONS_RESTRICT is not intended for this, only to restrect the kind of sign and options which are allowed in the select-options, you can restrict to single values, range or disable exclusion, this kind of restriction.
For your requirement, you have to restrict the dropdown values using FM VRM_SET_VALUES. (use the search tools in [forums|http://forums.sdn.sap.com/search.jspa?objID=c42&q=VRM_SET_VALUES] and [wiki|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/dosearchsite.action?searchQuery.queryString=VRM_SET_VALUES&searchQuery.spaceKey=conf_global])

How we can get the values from one screen to another screen?

hi guru's.
how we can get the values from one screen to another screen?
we get values where cusor is placed but in my requirement i want to get to field values from one screen to another screen.
regards.
satheesh.

Just think of dynpros as windows into the global memory of your program... so if you want the value of a field on dynpro 1234 to appear on dynpro 2345, then just pop the value into a global variable (i.e. one defined in your top include), and you will be able to see it in your second dynpro (assuming you make the field formats etc the same on both screens!).

Hi,
I assume that you read values for the search help with function 'F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST' and in a later step you display values with <htmlb:tableview>. If that is true and the function is delivering too many records as you mention, you could then restrict the output table of values like this:
TABLES mara.
DATA: mytable TYPE TABLE OF ddshretval WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA l_repid TYPE syrepid.
PARAMETERS p_mtart LIKE mara-mtart.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST
FOR p_mtart.
l_repid = sy-repid.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST'
EXPORTING
tabname = 'MARA'
fieldname = 'MTART'
dynpprog = l_repid
callback_program = l_repid
callback_form = 'F4CALLBACK'
TABLES
return_tab = mytable
EXCEPTIONS
field_not_found = 1
no_help_for_field = 2
inconsistent_help = 3
no_values_found = 4
OTHERS = 5.
START-OF-SELECTION.
blah, blah, blah
* Form F4_form
* Exclude all material types that start with F & H
FORM f4callback
TABLES record_tab STRUCTURE seahlpres
CHANGING shlp TYPE shlp_descr
callcontrol LIKE ddshf4ctrl.

MOVE: 'H_T134' to aux_struc-shlpname,
'MTART' TO aux_struc-shlpfield,

'CP' TO aux_struc-option,

append aux_struc to SHLP-SELOPT.

You cannot restrict values on the display attributes. Better change it to navigational attribute and check the box as navigational in the cube.

Copy 'Favorites' in 'Select Values for Variables' screen

I need to copy a list that I created as a 'Favorite' in the 'Select Values for Variables' screen for Customer to all the other userids so that everyone is using the same list of customers. Can someone tell me the table(s) where these values are stored? Is there a function module or program available that copies 'Favorites'.
It would be nice if you could select if the 'Favorites' you create can be 'Global'.
Thanks.

the variant values are stored in RSRPARAMETRIZA. the field content stores in XML format. you can write an ABAP program to read and update it.

How to pass the value of variable to another java file?

Hi. I have 2 java files (LogonAction.java and PCAction.java). The value of variable(String getrole) depends on the logon user. How can I use this value of variable in PCAction.java? I want to execute a sql statement in PCAction.java which is (String sql="Select * from PP where role"+"='" + getrole + "'") Thanks a lot.
LogonAction.java is below:
package test;
import test.jdbc.util.ConnectionPool;
import java.sql.*
import java.util.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import org.apache.commons.logging.*;
import org.apache.struts.action.*;
import org.apache.struts.util.*;
import org.apache.commons.beanutils.PropertyUtils;
public final class LogonAction extends Action {
private Log log = LogFactory.getLog("org.apache.struts.webapp.Example");
private ConnectionPool pool;
public LogonAction() {
pool = ConnectionPool.getInstance();
public String getrole;
public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws Exception {
Locale locale = getLocale(request);
MessageResources messages = getResources(request);
ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
String username = (String)PropertyUtils.getSimpleProperty(form, "username");
String password = (String)PropertyUtils.getSimpleProperty(form, "password");
String getusername=CheckUser(username,password);
getrole=getusername;
java.lang.System.out.println(getrole);
if ("".equals(getusername))
errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_ERROR,
new ActionError("error.password.mismatch"));
getusername=username+getusername;
// Report any errors we have discovered back to the original form
if (!errors.isEmpty()) {
saveErrors(request, errors);
return (mapping.getInputForward());
// Save our logged-in user in the session
HttpSession session = request.getSession();
session.setAttribute(Constants.USER_KEY, getusername);
if (log.isDebugEnabled()) {
log.debug("LogonAction: User '" + username +
"' logged on in session " + session.getId());
// Remove the obsolete form bean
if (mapping.getAttribute() != null) {
if ("request".equals(mapping.getScope()))
request.removeAttribute(mapping.getAttribute());
else
session.removeAttribute(mapping.getAttribute());
// Forward control to the specified success URI
return (mapping.findForward("success"));
* Look up the user, throwing an exception to simulate business logic
* rule exceptions.
* @param database Database in which to look up the user
* @param username Username specified on the logon form
* @exception ModuleException if a business logic rule is violated
public String CheckUser(String username,String password){
Connection con = null;
try
con = pool.getConnection();
String sql = "SELECT * from user WHERE userid = ? AND password= ?";
PreparedStatement ps = null;
ResultSet rs = null;
try {
if (con.isClosed()) {
throw new IllegalStateException("error.con.isClosed");
ps = con.prepareStatement(sql);
ps.setString(1,username);
ps.setString(2,password);
rs = ps.executeQuery();
String returnstr="";
while(rs.next())
returnstr=rs.getString("role");
java.lang.System.out.println(returnstr);
return returnstr;
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
throw new RuntimeException("error.ps.executeQuery");
} finally {
try {
if (ps != null)
ps.close();
if (rs != null)
rs.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
throw new RuntimeException("error.rs.close");
catch (SQLException e)
e.printStackTrace();
throw new RuntimeException("Unable to get connection.");
finally
try
if (con != null)
con.close();
catch (SQLException e)
throw new RuntimeException(e.getMessage());
}

You can use PreparedStatement and
String cmd = "select * from PP where role=?";
PreparedStatement stmt = conn.prepareStatement(cmd);
stmt.setString(1,theRole);

What is the datatype to store the value of variable of UTL_HTTP.resp

Hello,
I am using Oracle 11g R2 SOE.
I have table Called SMS consists of two columns (TEXT , RESPONSE) to store the value of variable of type UTL_HTTP.resp
the datatype of TEXT column is varchar2.
What should be the datatype of the column RESPONSE that is supposed to store the value of a variable of type UTL_HTTP.resp ????
Please see the following example if it was not clear;
Declare
l_url2 SMS.RESPONSE%TYPE;
l_http_request2   UTL_HTTP.req;
l_http_response2 UTL_HTTP.resp;
begin
l_http_request2 := UTL_HTTP.begin_request(l_url2);
l_http_response2 := UTL_HTTP.get_response(l_http_request2);
insert into SMS (text,response) values (l_url2,l_http_response2);
UTL_HTTP.end_response(l_http_response2);
end;Regards,
Fateh

Fatehutl_http.resp is a record type Its defined like this
TYPE resp IS RECORD (
   status_code    PLS_INTEGER,
   reason_phrase VARCHAR2(256),
   http_version   VARCHAR2(64));http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/u_http.htm#i1012713
I would suggest in your table you split the RESPONSE column into 3 different column and store the fields STATUS_CODE, REASON_PHARSE and HTTP_VERSION accordingly.

Restricting the values in Drop Down list for ESS application

Hello Experts,
We are trying to restrict the values in the drop down list box for payment method field for direct deposit iview.
Here Payment is the Zlsch field.
here we are trying to have only 3 vlaues in the drop down. Do I have to do it from java code or can this be restricted on the ECC side?
Plese let me know.
Thanks,
James.

James,
What you have to do is create a DropDown ByIndex element instead of by Key and create a context node PaymentMethodNode and a value attribute PaymentAttribute under it ....then write the following code in the wdDoInit() method as :
//Add whatever values you want in the DropDown
String[] priority_options= new String[]{"Payroll/Corp/Partner Check","Employee Payroll ACH(PPD)"};
          List ListOfPriorities = new ArrayList();
          for(int i=0;i<priority_options.length;i++)
               IPrivateDetailView.IPayment_MethodNodeElement pr= wdContext.createPayment_MethodNodeElement();
               pr.setPaymentAttribute(priority_options<i>);
               ListOfPriorities.add(pr);
          wdContext.nodePayment_MethodNode().bind(ListOfPriorities);
          for(int e=0;e<wdContext.nodePayment_MethodNode().size();++e)
               wdContext.nodePayment_MethodNode().setSelected(e,e>=0 && e<=1);
and then write the following code in wdDoModifyView() method:
IWDDropDownByIndex di =(IWDDropDownByIndex)view.getElement("DropDownByIndex");
         di.bindTexts("Payment_MethodNode.PaymentAttribute");
then create an Action and bind it to the onselect property of the DropDown and write the following code in the onAction method :
if(wdContext.currentPayment_MethodNodeElement().getPaymentAttribute().equalsIgnoreCase("Payroll/Corp/Partner Check"))
    wdContext.currentSelectedInfotypeElement().setZlsch("C");
    else
     wdContext.currentSelectedInfotypeElement().setZlsch("P");
I am sure it will work..

Is it possible to get the value of variable through answers page ?

Hi all,
I had Dynamic variable ETLRundate . I want use this variable in Answers page to see the out put ?
Is it possible to get the value of variable through answers page ?if so how I can use ?

Hi
Use the link below and download the documentation
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/bi_ee.html
I think you will find what you are looking for in the Answers, Delivers, and Interactive Dashboards User Guide, but in short the syntax to display a variable value is as follows:
As shown above the syntax for using a presentation variable is:
@{variablename}{defaultvalue}
For Session variables use:
@{biServer.variables['NQ_SESSION.variablename']}
For repository variables use:
@{biServer.variables['variablename']}

How to change the value of variable in .bpel file

Hi,
How can i change the value of variable in .bpel file at time of deployment.
Can it be possible with configplan.xml or deployment descriptor?
Thanks
Richa

You cannot change the value of variable in .bpel file using config plan. If you want to change value at runtime , you can use Preference variable. Below is the blog to help you understand more.

How can I restrict the values obtained in a search help?

Hi guys,
The thing is that there is a function module that according to the user name, and a material number, it tells wheter the user has permission to see the material or not.
It is possible to use that function module to restrict the values of the search help?
Thanks

Hello Raulie,
1. If the function module is not much complex then copy the same Functionmodule into your custom name ,...
Then you would have the control at your end,,,,
2. If the funciton module is very complex then fetch the data manually and create a custom f4 help ... to fetch the data use the similar logic of the function module so that data does not get deleted.
Thanks,

Display non changeable Variables / restricted values on variables Screen

Dear SAP-Experts,
is it possible to display non changeable / restricted char values on the variables screen?
regards
Jürgen

Dear Jürgen,
Now I understand what you mean.
I'm afraid this is indeed not possible, unless you create customer exit for i_step=3 to invalidate any change made by user in variable screen for this variable, which is not really a practical way.
Actually the user would be able to see the filter information after query execution. The detailed location depends on whether you use BEx Analyzer or portal.
