Should I duplicate existing objects in designer

Hi,
I have existing webi doc reports running fine on exisitng objects in universe.
I have foll tables joined:
DailySales -> CompanyCalendar
|
> SalesCommission
From above I can compile sales commission montly.
For a new requirement, a now have a table for 'mock up' commission for sales people and come up with a 'Mock up Commission' object which I need to link to DailySales and other objects..
Linking directly does not give proper data in Infoview reports and the view sql shows 2 sets instead of one, with obviously wrong data.
I am wondering if I should link the new object 'Mock up Commission' on aliases of existing objects.
Grateful if you could please advise on how to resolve this.
Thank you very much.

Well, sometiems I've had to create duplicate objects in my universe in order to get certain result that is not possible if the object is used to be linked to another object.

ABAP Object X Design Patterns X Extreme Program

Hi Evebody,
Im postgraduate in Object Oriented Analysis and Programming.
Ive been working with ABAP procedural development for two years and Ive started to work with ABAP Objects has few months.
Id like to get deeply knowledge in my developments skills, could someone tell me if ABAP Object X Designer Patterns X Extreme Program is a good path to follow?
Id like to share material and guides about this topic.
Ive already bought these books to help me.
ABAP Objects - H. Keller; Hardcover (Pre-Order)
Design Patterns Explained - Alan Shalloway
Ill be very grateful with any help.

> And do you think these themes are a great combination
> for ABAP development?
Design pattern are very abstract and can be used with any OO programming language. The implementations will differ but the core concepts are always the same.
XP is an agile development process and can also be used with any programming language.
Learning what design pattern are and how to use them is very important in my opinion. Most companies expect that you are familiar and have experience with them.
Extreme Programming (XP) on the other side is different. When I began to explore XP it got me started on how software should be developed in general. Since the concepts behind XP are quite different, it should at least stimulate you to start thinking about how you develop software at the moment and if there might be better ways of doing it.
If you have only time to study one subject go for the design pattern. You might also consider reading the following books if you want to improve your OO coding skills:

The Web application at could not be found. Verify that you have typed the URL correctly. If the URL should be serving existing content, the system administrator may need to add a new request URL mapping to the intended application

Hi,
I have created on windows service to fetch sharepoint list ad update the list items.
when i run this service in sharepoint server(where the sharepoint site is hosted),it is working fine. If i run the same service in another machine(sharepoint installed in this machine also). it is giving the below error
The Web application at [URL] could not be found. Verify that you have typed the URL correctly. If the URL should be serving existing content, the system administrator may need to add a new request URL mapping to the intended application.

I have pointed .net framework to 3.5 version and target palform as Any CPU. Please suggest me

Hi mallela1,
I also had similar issue couple of months back when I was trying to access a remote URL from a Windows service when the site does not exists in the server where service resides.
You cannot access a remote url (even though it is SharePoint server and also in same network ) from server object model.
SPSite can look in the current server only. here what is happening is SPSite will look for this in the current server DB and it is not finding this errror.
So please dont use ServerObject model for accessing remote sites. You can use Client Object model for the code /requirement you have stated above.
I wasted lot of time in finding a work around to make to work. It did not. So look for other options.

Nandini

Duplicate Resource Objects are displayed while provisioning the resource

Duplicate Resource Objects are displayed while provisioning the resource to organization after creating a new workflow through export and import process.
A workfolw already exists in the environment and I am trying to replicate the work flow with a different name . So i import all the components related to provisioning workflow rename the names of the components and make the necessary changes and import it back. after this I am getting Duplicate Resource Objects being displayed while provisioning the resource to organization .plz help.its urgent

I have tried this process thrice not able to solve this problem ......unchecking allow multiple ..i don t think matters as this is provisioning to org ...n what i am telling is the list from which u select the resources to be provisioned --that list shows duplicate resource object names at a time..Each time I import an xml the number of same resource object names being displayed in the list increases ...So If I have imported three workflows then (say Resorce Object AD) appears thrice in the list. I have not given the resource objects same name in all the workflows for this to happen

Add a new table to an existing Print Layout Designer report

Is it possible to add a new table to an existing Print Layout Designer report? For example, in the Production Order there is a Sales Order field (which is displayed on the report), I would like to display some information from UDFs found on the Sales Order, but when I add a Database Field to the report the Sales Order tables does not appear in the list (OWOR).

Hi
It is possible provided there is a relationship which exists between two tables.
You can add a Database field. Goto the Properties and selct Content Tab.
Now in the Table dropdown, hold the Alt Key and click. This displays all the tables in B1. After selecting the Table, you can select the related Column.
Remember there should be a relationship which exists between this column and existing columns.
Because PLD works completely on Joins to my understanding

Exception Handling in Object Oriented Design

I am developing a huge web based project using Object Oriented design and java,srvlets ,jsp etc ,I am using 3-tier archtecture.I dont understand,how i should handle exceptions in my project.ie.If there is some exception in the base modules how should it be handled.What kind of excpetion Structure should i use,How many exception classes should be made etc,
Can someone help me in this regard

A couple things I have found to be good practices for exception handling in an n-tier architecture:
1. Don't expose all the internal exceptions of a tier to the client of the tier. Create a more useful, descriptive set of exceptions (or use the appropriate predefined exceptions) to throw up to the client.
For example, on one project, we are doing database access among other things in the "service" tier, which is accessed by the web tier. We catch the SQLExceptions, PersistenceExceptions (a custom exception), and others, and throw a more useful exception that the client will know how to handle such as a NoMeasurementResultsException if the client asks for measurement results when we have none.
2. Chain your exceptions and/or log the root cause in the tier that re-throws a different exception. There is nothing more aggravating than not knowing why, when you are debugging a problem, you are getting a NoMeasurementResultsException when you know that there ARE results in the database.
Hope these ideas help in your design.
Cheers,
Colin

Traitement modules versus database object in Designer 9i

Hello!
In our environment, there was Designer 9i installed with non-enabled versioning. So, there is only one Global shared workarea, and all the applications system are granted to public who has all rights, and the developers maintain all the application (database objects and modules).
Now, we want to revoke the insert, delete and update privileges on database object to the developers.
The developers continue to maintain their modules and only the DBA, would be able to modify the database objects.
What is the best way to do it?
Thanks,
Malika

Malika,
Then you should move the database objects to another workarea and grant only edit priviliges to your DBA - and these objects should be shared to your 'normal' development workarea (where the developers have all privs).
But why the h*** should you want to do this? Packages, procedures and functions are database objects and should be developed by developers. Imho also views, tables, triggers etc should be developed by developers and not DBA's. A DBA is another kind of expertise than developer. If you try to make the developer's life (work) difficult, they will look for workarounds - and find them. And so making your project less productive and more complex.
Keep the problem you are trying to solve in mind!

Change view angle of 3D grid with existing objects

Hello,
I am new to the perspective grid in Adobe Illustrator and would really appreciate some help. I have created a simple room interior with a 2 point perspective and a view angle of 45 degree. I would now like to display the same room with a view angle of 60 degree. Is it possible to change the view angle of the 3D with existing objects in it or do I have to re-create the room with a different view angle each time? I can change the numbers in the define perspective setting and the grid changes but the room doesn't seem to change with it.
Thanks, Conny

the perspective grid is just a load of fancy guidelines. it can't affect what you draw after the fact any more than a similar grid drawn on paper could.
Wrong. The Perspective Grid is essentially an envelope distortion, and it is live. Otherwise, objects wouldn't automatically reshape as you move them on the plane to which they are attached.
Is it possible to change the view angle of the 3D with existing objects in it or do I have to re-create the room with a different view angle each time?
Even in pre-CC versions, pressing Shift while moving a perspective plane handle moves the attached objects also. Pressing Alt duplicates the objects as they move with the plane.
By the way, though, it's not "3D". Couching your question in the terms of 3D will suggest to some you're talking about 3D Effect.

When i duplicate an object, it moves it far away from where my original object is as soon as i move it. is there any way to fix this?

when i duplicate an object in numbers, it moves it far away from where my original object is as soon as i move it. is there any way to fix this? thanks

Hi Rick,
Your initial duplicate should be offset by one grid unit to the right and below the location of the original. If you move that duplicate by dragging it, without first de-selecting it, then reselecting it, the place you put it will determine the offset for subsequent duplicates (from the same original or from the copy).
Example:
Initial object and first duplicate:
Pressing shift-up arrow would move the duplicate up to align with the top of the original. Pressing shift-left arrow would then place the duplicate directly in front of the original.
Without being deselected, the duplicate was dragged to the position shown:
Command-D was then pressed to duplicate the first copy:
The duplicate appeared in this position

Considerations should be taken into account when designing an RTF Template

What overall considerations should be taken into account when designing an RTF template?.
For example, how the tables should be set. When the report is running, I don't want to happen to the fields leaving the position defined during design.

Hi,
from my point of view, so general questions are not answered there...
One note,
I'm trying to get the data first, "load it" (for example) into Word and only then generate the tables using the wizards. This will give the effect.

How to bind schema form data to existing objects?

I imported an existing PDF as my template and it make all the text, check boxes and text fields into objects - Great!
But now when I add a schema with my DB data field names I am unsure how to turn the existing objects on the form to the schema fields!!
Can anyone help?

Open the DataView where your schema is visually represented and simply drag and drop the schema item onto the object that you want to bind it to. If the bind is successful a little icon will appear in the DataView beside the node.
If you select on object in the form and click on the Binding tab, you will see an expression representing what you are bound to. You can also use the icon there to navigate to the appropriate node in the schema.

My existing object styles are not visible

My existing object styles are not visible in the object style panel- only via quick apply (so I know they exist)
Any idea how I can make this panel functional again?

How can I delete the existing objects and Relation ships in OM?

Hi One and All,
Hope all of you doin well,
I want to delete the all existing objects in OM, like Org units, positions, jobs and etc... and also relationships.
Please guide me.
Thanks,
Potru.

all Objects are stored in table HRP1000 and relations in HRP1001, related to HRP1001 there are HRPADxx tables depending on the relationship.
You will have to write your own program.
If you have Clone&Test you could use /BKC/SOL21_PDPDEL to delete complete (sub-)structures.

SCCM creating duplicate computer Objects

Hi
We have just upgraded from an SCCM 2007 to SCCM 2012. In the old system I had it set up that other members of my team could all add a machine to SCCM adding the MAC address information and then add the machine into AD. once in AD they could assign it
to security groups for example a windows 7 group. every 10 minutes SCCM would scan AD see the machine name and update the security group information on the computer object that was manually created earlier. based on this if SCCM could see it
in the Windows 7 group it would move the machine to the Windows 7 collection and then I had an advertisement that would deploy Windows 7.
On the new system however I add the machine into SCCM with the MAC then add it to AD but I end up with 2 objects one that I added with the MAC but doesn't get updated with the security group information so doesn't get added to the collection and then another
one created from scanning AD which has the security information but no MAC so wont build.
how can I get it to just update the one object?
thanks

I create the object in AD so that I can assign a computer security groups like Windows 7 or install office and based on that SCCM moves the machine into various collections. when I then build a machine it will build with the various option set for example
it will build a machine with Windows 7. I have to also import it into SCCM so I can assign it a MAC address so that when I PXE boot a machine it recognises it.
I used to be able to under sccm 2007 import it manually into SCCM with the MAC so it would PXE boot and also create an AD computer account with the security groups and in the correct OU so that when it built it would be joined to the domain
with the correct GP applied. 2007 used to merge the 2 objects or at least detect the machine name already existed and applied the information to the existing objects.
its neater for me to do it this way than have everyone doing direct relationships for all machines on collections

Unable to write more than 10 case statements in an object in designer

unable to write more than 10 case statements in an object in designer
XI 3.0 and XI 3.1
Please let me know, any known issues.

Hi,
yes this is the limitation you cant write more that 10 case statments but you can reduce the number of time you use the case in your object.
For ex:
If you are writing few conditions on one field then you can add the login in one case only.
case when SAL between 100 and 1000 then 'lowsal'
when SAL between 1000 and 2000 then 'medsal'
when sal between 2000 and 3000 then highsal
else
case when ...then ....
else
end
end
by following the above ex you can solve your problem.
But if you are writing case statement based on dofferent columns then write 10 case statements and remaining conditions you can add at the report level.
using if else condition.
Hope this will help you....
Cheers,
