Setting up Custom Priorities for Taxonomy Attributes through Import Manager

Hi,
I want to set priority for "n" number of characteristics through Import Manager.
I know Import manager allows us to set priority to one of the following : "Highest" "High" "Normal" "Low" "Lowest". But I have a requirement to set custom priority for each of the attribute through Import manager so as to avoid manual intervention.
Has anybody worked on this before?

Amol.

Hi,
Which special properties you are talking about ?
I will just brief you the concepts of Hierarchy and Taxonomy
Hierarchy
Node1
-    Node11
-   Node12
Node2
-    Node21
--         Node211
Only leaf nodes can be assigned at the time of record creation.
Taxonomy
Used when particular hierarchy nodes needs some extra fields.
Example: If your hierarchy is like
Cars
    - Fiat
    - Maruti
Bikes
    - Hero Honda
    - Bajaj
Now for Cars, i want to store its Price but for Bikes i am not interested in Price but I want the Colour info. Now if you create the Price and Colour as fields of the repository then for all the records whose category is Cars will have NULL value for Colour and reverse in case of Bikes. Hence the concept of Taxonomy is introduced so that you can assign the fields (known as attributes) to the Nodes of the hierarchy.
For Taxonomy Import, refer the below links

What is the use of custom properties for terms in term store management of SharePoint 2013

Hi All,
Can some one pls explain what is the purpose of custom properties for terms in term store management tool of SharePoint 2013.
In general, for each term we have shared and local properties. What is the real purpose in terms of SharePoint development.
Please share with possible scenarios. Does it refer's to a hierarchical metadata in SharePoint ?
Thanks keshav,Share point Developer

The custom properties for terms allow you to further define or clarify a term via the properties. You can then display these properties in search results or specify query rules that look for specific custom properties.
Here is an example of how to create a query rule using custom properties:

Here is an example that uses code to verify that a custom property exists on a term object that is pinned to another term object:

Is linking of attributes to records is possible through import manager?
Thanks

Hi,
In order to work with the Taxonomies, you need to perform the following steps:
1. Import Categories
2. Import Attributes
3. Attributes values.
4. Attribute links

PDF through import manager

Hi Folks,
I have business requirnment in which pdf files are kept in folder.
I need this pdf files in MDM data manager.
We are importing data from portal to import manager.
My query is shall i able to get URL in data manager, by click on the URL (LINK)
or.
Second shall ,I able to put PDF in portal and same in import mnaager so i can able to access in PDF table of data manager.
I dont want to direct upload PDF in data manager but need to come through import manager to data manager.
Thansk in advance
Rohit

Hi Rohit
Yes, you can do this.
Define a field called PDFURL in the record.
An example of the data that would be stored in the PDFURL field : "abc123.pdf".
Now go to a local web server and define a simple webpage that displays a PDF. The name of the PDF to display should be passed to the webpage in the webpage's URL (e.g. http://server.local.domain/page?what=abc.pdf).
Now define the URL in the MDM Console. Replace the filename ("abc.pdf" in the above example) with the string "<f:PDFURL>". Using the above example, the URL defined in the Console would be http://server.local.domain/page?what=<f:PDFURL>.
Reload the repository and connect with the Data Manager. Goto Configuration -> Options and find "Records -> Web pane URL for selected records". Set it to the URL you defined in the Console.
Select a record and go to the Data Manager's Web tab. You should see the PDF displayed there.
NB: Be aware of how the MDM Server and the Web Server might reference the location of the PDF. While the PDF might be on the MDM box under c:\newfolder, the Web Server will (probably) not reference the document by the same path. Either use UNC paths or map a common network drive.

MDM Security for taxonomy attributes

Hi,
I have created a taxonomy and linked attributes to it in MDM 5.5 SP6. I do not want users to populate or change the attribute values in Data Manager after they have assigned a part to a taxonomy node. That will be done with xml via Import Server.
I see that I can set Change Tracking on Taxonomy[Attributes], but I don't see any way in the Roles - Functions/Tables and Fields or in the Configuration options in Data Manager to allow users to see the attributes and their values but not change the values.
thanks!
Morgan Hinkle

Hi Morgan,
Is there any way to allow them to set the taxonomy node per part, but not modify the associated attributes?
Yes, this is possible for a user in taxonomy mode of Data Manager.
Go to Console, Open Repository> Admin>Roles>Functions>Taxonomies-->Modify linked Attributes.
So you need to navigate up-to Modify Linked Attributes and Set Access as None. Set this role only to that particular user which is not allowed to Changed linked(associated) attributes with category in taxonomy mode. You can also set Add Attributes and Modify Attributes access to None for that user as per your requirement.
Note: This function is applicable, when that user select Category table as current table in Taxonomy mode of Data Manager. This is working fine at my end. But if you are talking about this taxonomy associated Attributes get not changed by User from Main table record for that specific user (I mean a record in main table is associated with a category where this category is linked with some attributes and you want no user can change these attribute values in main table), then as per my understanding this is not possible because as designed, every action done within a Taxonomy node (add, update, remove) is considered to be an update to the main record, thus it has only one entry in the Roles >>tables and Fields tab (which is the Taxonomy look-up field of the main table). I firmly believe that MDM does not support this functionality as of now.

Even though I set "Use custom settings for history" when I close the window and recheck it has set itself back to "Rember History"..why?

I am having trouble getting the settings to stay and can't figure out why...no matter what I do it just resets every time back to the
"Remember History" and it won't save passwords on some of my sites.

Firefox shows the "(Never) Remember history" choice if all the history and cookie setting are the default. 
Make at least one change to the default setting if you want "Use custom settings for history" to stay selected. 
Otherwise Firefox will revert to "(Never) Remember history" if you return to the Privacy tab. 
The choice "Use custom settings for history" will stay selected as long as not all settings are the default to make you aware that you made changes. 
* Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode
* You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
* Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"
* Websites remembering you and automatically log you in is stored in a cookie.
* You need an allow cookie exception (Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions) to keep that cookie, especially for secure websites and if you let cookies expire when Firefox closes
* Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences"
Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and password exceptions.

Where do I set the polling frequency for Technical monitoring in Solution Manager 7.1 SP10 ??

Hi All,
I am customizing my technical monitoring templates and would like to know :
1. Where we can set the polling frequency for each metrics for triggering alerts through Technical monitoring in Solution Manager 7.1 SP10 ??
2. Is it like each time our threshold is breached, it will send an alert irrespective of polling frequency ??
I know the data collection interval time for each metrics in technical monitoring template but the as per my observation the polling frequency is different.
Need your guidance.

Partial match for Value Mapping in Import Manager

Hello Experts,
We have a import map which is used to do mass insert of data into the main table. This is done as & when required by the end user.
We have a qualified lookup field which has a flat lookup filed as the Non-Qualifier. This flat lookup field is refering to a Lookup Flat table, which has mulitple dispay fields like Code,Name, Status etc. (14 fields in total) where as only the Code is the unique field.
We have only the unique field in our source file which we use for the import. Since we have only a part of the display fields in the source, the automap functionality in the Value maping section doesn't work. It becomes very tedious for the user to manually map all the values for this field.
Is there any way by which we can convert the source or target values in the import map, so that we can map the values using the Automap feature?
Your help & suggestion for alternate approach is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Uday
P.S. We are using SAP MDM 5.5 SP6.

Hi Uday,
No need to enable remote key mapping for QLT. Please execute the below steps(stated with an example) -
1. Among all the fields in the referenced lookup table, identify the lookup fields and the tables they are looking up .
For eg.If you have a lookup field as 'Country' as one of the fields, look up table will be 'Countries'
2.For the identified lookup tables, set 'key mapping =Yes' in Console.
For eg, For Country Lookup table ,set Key mapping to 'Yes'
3.Import values into Lookup table (Import manager)/ Remote key update -
In import manager, select source (local file) and destination as Countries flat table.This Table will be haing 2fields - Code and description.Clone the 'Code'field and map it to Remote key field in destination hierarchy.Map code and description to equivalent destination fields. Select 'Code' as matching field > Perform import into lookup table.
Check if the records in countries table are updated with remote keys(in Data manager> right click on a record> select 'Edit key mappings' > view key mapping for the record)
3.Import to Qualified table/Auto value mapping -
Now, in the import map for qualified import , map the source field and destination field (of lookup type), all the values of this field will automatically map.
Similarly, refresh remote keys mappings for all the lookup tables first and then you can see auto mappings of values happening for the lookup fields.

Updating value of for taxonomy attributes via ABAP API

Hi ,
We have table Product hierarchy repository in that we have Products table and ProductHierarchy table which is of type taxonomy .
The product hierarchy is assigned to each product as lookup taxonomy field.
Can anyone please let me know how we can update the values assgined to the attribute throght ABAP API.
Example we have the attribute called color which assigned to Product Hierarchy 'A' and this product hierarchy 'A' is attached to Material '111' and the attribute color will have value 'Blue' for material '111' now I want to update the value of color to 'Red' . How we can achieve this via the MDM ABAP API.
Regards,
Amar Kamat

If your question is how to change the value of an attribute for a specific product this is the solution:
Use IF_MDM_CORE_SERVICES->RETRIEVE( ) to retrieve the product record so that you have a populated structure of type MDM_PARAMETER. In this structure you will find the entry relating to the taxonomy field. The VALUE attribute of this line entry will be a reference to type MDM_TAXONOMY_ENTRY.
At this point you will want to take the TAXONOMY_ENTRY_ID and TAXONOMY_TABLE_CODE of this structure to retrieve the attributes. Using IF_MDM_CORE_SERVICE->RETRIEVE_ATTRIBUTES( ) and the attributes mentioned before you will get the results into a table of line type MDM_ATTRIBUTE_INFORMATION_SL.
Select the appropriate line from the result table based on the attribute name (ATTR_NAME). In the record of type MDM_ATTRIBUTE_INFORMATION_SL you will now want to select the appropriate line from the table found in field ATTR_FEATURE_DOMAIN. Find the appropriate attribute (in this case color) by VALUE_NAME and copy the VALUE_ID (type MDM_UNIQUE_ID).
Now back to where we left off in the original record (MDM_PARAMETER), loop through the table found at field TAXONOMY_ATTRIBUTES of the MDM_TAXONOMY_ENTRY looking in ATTR_INFO for the correct ATTR_NAME. When the correct entry is found, update the ATTR_FEATURE_DOMAIN with the new VALUE_ID and viola, you've got a mdm record ready to be updated.
Simply call IF_MDM_CORE_SERVICE-UPDATE( ) with the modified record and you've updated your attribute assignment.
In short:
Navigate to the MDM_TAXONOMY_ENTRY of the product record
Retrieve the attributes from the corresponding taxonomy table and navigate to the unique ID of the desired attribute
Navigate to the attribute within the record's MDM_TAXONOMY_ENTRY and update the VALUE_ID with the new unique ID
Update the product record

Slider.verticalThumIcon ? How to set a custom icon for JSlider

Hi Guys,
Can anyone please tell me where I am going wrong in the code below.
I am trying to change the thum icon for JSlider to a custom one, but for some reason the new thum icon is not getting displayed.....
UIDefaults defaults = UIManager.getDefaults();
defaults.put("Slider.verticalThumbIcon", new ImageIcon(Slider.class.getResource("./cursor.jpg")));
defaults.put("Slider.background", Color.BLUE);
final JSlider slider = new JSlider();
slider.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(250,20));
getContentPane().add(slider, BorderLayout.NORTH);
I can see the blue background, BUT I still see the default thumb icon.
I also tried using

Both commands look right - supposed the package was added before to the Management Server.
You could cross-check if the path to the XML files is correct and if you and the machine have permission to access it. Also check if it is 'really' a User Config (and not a deployment config).
Did you try using the Management Console?

Set a custom path for the service endpoint associated to a BPEL process

Hello,
I have a BPEL process and I would like to change the endpoint address of the corresponding web service that corresponds to the BPEL process.
To be more specific, by default, the web service corresponding to a BPEL process "MyProcess" has an endpoint like: http://MyMachine:9700/orabpel/default/MyProcess , supposing that the process is deployed in the default domain.
What should I do to have an endpoint like
http://MyMachine:9700/orabpel/default/MyPath/MyProcess ?
Is it possible?
Thanks in advance!

Figured out that the configuration property 'location' for the PartnerLinkBinding Deployment Descriptor can be used for this purpose. Tried it and it is working out perfectly fine.
