Show the object and the line number, where the error happens in Forms

Hi!
Al lot of our programmer use the ugly when others clause to raise messages like "error <sqlcode> happens in ....". Often this hides the really error in some underlying procedures. Is it possible to call the error stack from forms like in 10g database dbms_utility.format_error_backtrace? Actually FRM-40735 hides all this information. This should be work for client and database pl/sql errors!
With kind regards

First of all, send every programmer in your organization a message to STOP doing that. I am afraid there is nothing you can do when you have to call some stupid code from your form that contains the when others then... sequence.
Below is an email I sent out just two months ago. I'll share it with you:
Hi _______,
I looked over the _________ package to try to determine why it was so difficult to find the source of the problem. The problem was that the line number reported when the job failed was line 326, which is the Raise command at the end of the __xyz__ procedure.
When someone writes:
exception when others then raise;it causes line number reporting to fail when an unexpected Oracle error is encountered. Furthermore, the line does absolutely no good, because Oracle will automatically raise unhandled errors without that code.
The only thing that code does is cause problems when someone looks for the source of a failure. Without that code, job failures can be located in just a few minutes.
That same code sequence is repeated three times in the _________ package. The problem may also exist in the __abc___... functions that the _______.lookup_xxxl function calls, since no line numbers were reported from there, either. It would be very helpful if you would remove the problem code, and PLEASE instruct everyone on your staff to never use that sequence anywhere.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - end of email - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Now, in addition, you can trap FRM-40735 in your on-error trigger and then display the message found in DBMS_ERROR_TEXT. In fact, you might try the format_error_backtrace from there, too.

I did it through CS, I think. I used the installation disk and selected Acrobat. It loads and then gives me all kinds of error messages and then uninstalls itself.

I took the advice of one of the people in the forum and changed a number in the registry from a 10 to a 20 to give more time for apps to load and now it is too slow. I need to change it back but I do not know how, please can someone help me?

this advice came from someone in a solved part of the forum, who had a long list of computer solutions.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Retrieving line-number of the last error

Hello !
Is it possible to access the line number where the last error in a PL/SQL procedure occured ?
At example:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE do_stupid
IS
tempNum Number;
BEGIN
     FOR i IN 1..5
     LOOP
          temp := sysdate;
     END LOOP;
     tempNum := 2;
     tempNum := tempNum / 0;
     tempNum := 3;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
     -- i want to access the line-number of the error "tempnum / 0"
END do_stupid;
Thank You
Florian

If you are just trying to debug one procedure, eliminating the exception section and running it from sql*plus will cause it to return an error message that includes the line number. But this won't work if you are trying to trap the error and log it in some table or some such thing.
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE do_stupid
2 IS
3    tempnum NUMBER;
4    temp    DATE;
5 BEGIN
6    FOR i IN 1..5
7    LOOP
8      temp := SYSDATE;
9    END LOOP;
10    tempnum := 2;
11    tempnum := tempnum / 0;
12    tempnum := 3;
13 END do_stupid;
14 /
Procedure created.

BEGIN do_stupid; END;

Profit Center population in the Vendor and Customer Line items

hello
our client is asking for getting profit center in the vendor and customer line items where in the view FBL5n and fbl1n we are not getting the profit center populated - in the new gl i understand that there is a standard report based on the gl account.
but our business is not satisfied with the report and expecting report at profit center level.
Can any one suggest any way of doing this.
regards,
Vijay

Dear Vijay,
Let me provide you my view of solutioning for this. This is an enahcement that needs to be done
1. You can get the profit center from the given vendor and customer line item at the time of posting, using an enahcement you will be able to capture it.
2. Existing the profit center field is not populated in the BSIK,BSAK,BSID and BSAD tables
3. Hence, in the same enhancement once you capture the profit center , you can write the code that profit center is updated in these tables also.
4. This will help you to do the vendor line item wise selection in the FBL1N, FBL5N profit center wise.
Constraints of this solution:
The only constraint remains where in the for a given document if there are multiple profit center, then the system will do the splitting profit center wise for a vendor line item, which will not populate the profit center in those tables as there is only one field available in the bsid etc.. tables.
This basically would be the one the soltuion where in as seeen from the end user ther eis no change in the front end interface , the way they are doing always they can do.
You need to also take care the % of document splitting means cross profit center postings /cross document splitting charactericstics postings and the volume involved in this. so that you can suggest this to your client.

Bharathi.

How do I set up the "Objects and Attachments"

Hi .... I'm new at WorkFlow (and SAP for that matter) and have inherited a WF that is already built. In several of the steps I can see "Objects and Attachments" on the work item screen where a User can click to be directed to a transaction. For example, on one screen the User can click on "Incoming Invoice: 5105601690" to be directed to the Invoice Display Screen that is populated with information for that particular invoice (5105601690).
I am looking at the WF using TCode SWDD and cannot figure our how the original developer set this up. So my question is ..... for a particular WF step, how do you set up the "Objects and Attachments: area so that the User will be directed to a particular transaction when he/she clicks on it.
Thanks in advance, and sorry for such a "juvenile" question.
Dan A

Thanks for your reply Rajkumar,
I am looking at the screen you have directed me to. Business object is BUS2081 (actually it is ZMMWBS2081 which is a customized version BUS2081) Method is "Display" and Attribute is "InvoiceDocNumber". How do I know by looking at this that "Display" means Display Invoice? What if I wanted to display the PO instead?
Thanks for the "spoon feeding".

How do I get the line number of the sales order and how do I save info?

I am trying to create a form that is able to be called from a right click on the sales order matrix and will display some of the user defined fields associated with the line.
I've managed to create a form and add a menu option to the right click but I'm now stuck because of the following:
1. How to I know which line the user selected? I need the REAL Line Number from the RDR1 table because I need to use it on the data filter of the form.
2. I hard coded a line to just to see if I can load a form and it appears to load and bind the data to the controls, but how do I save changes made? There are several text fields, combo boxes, and a picture control.

Hi Coleman,
1. The pVal returned form a menu event does no provide the LineId, but a pVal from a Item Event does. I suggest you use a DoubleClick or Control + Click on the Line to trigger an event that you can catch and use to launch your form.
2. Please note that if the Sales Order line is closed you'll not be able to update the values. If it's not, then you need to instantiate a Sales Order document, get the correct document with the GetByKey method and update whatever fields you need.
                Dim oSalesOrder As SAPbobsCOM.Documents = oCompany.GetBusinessObject(BoObjectTypes.oOrders)
                If oSalesOrder.GetByKey(docentry) = True Then
                    oSalesOrder.Lines.SetCurrentLine(pVal.Row - 1)
                    oSalesOrder.Lines.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_MyUDF").Value = ""
                    oSalesOrder.Update()
                End If

Get line that contains and then get the second and fourth line after that.

So I have a text file and I want it to find all the lines in the file that contain an @ symbol and then I want it to get that line and the line second and fourth from that line. Then I would export it like this:
$linewith@ + ":" + $secondline + ":" + $fourthline
Finding the lines with an @ symbol is easy, but how would I tell it to get the second and fourth line after the line with an @ symbol?
So I would get the lines with something like this:
foreach ($line in [System.IO.File]::ReadLines($filename)) {
if($line.contains("@")){}

That worked perfectly thanks man! Here is the entire code. I'm sure it could been cleaned up. I'm still learning powershell.

Oops, I forgot a step between 7 and 8 ... before syncing the iPhone I need to explicitly send the document back to iTunes on the iPhone, or the changes won't come over at all ...
and then one more thing ... Numbers on iOS does NOT recognize a number of key features of the OSX app, such as conditional formatting ... so after editing my document on iOS and syncing it back to OSX on my Mac, all of those settings are lost (no more conditional formatting, have to do it all over again)
What am I doing wrong ?

Is there a way to create a heading with shading behind the text and thin lines above and below?

I'm working with InDesign CS6, Windows 7.
Is there a way, using paragraph rules, to create a heading with shading behind the text and thin lines above and below the text?
I'd like to create headings that look like these:
Thank you!

I have a document where I almost do such, but without the fill. I use a Head Style which Spans Columns for this instance; it allows the haeds to flow and fill the width.
Paragraph Rules above and below are turned on with plenty of offset.
I tweaked my setting to accomodate your need - It required only one instance, not above and below, and changing the stroke to a double stroke.
It may be necessary to create a custom stroke to modify the proportion of stroke vs fill. There is a difference of thin-thin and thick-thick, neither of which seemed perfect but might be dependent on the Character height.
Creating custom strokes is accomplished via the Strokes Panel.

How to get a question in the course placed anywhere in the course and does not appear in the quiz result or total number of questions. Pretest would work except it can't go anywhere in the course (at least for me it can't)

Use a normal question, and do not add the score to the total score. That will give you a correct score at the end. But the total number of questions, that system variable will still take into account all questions. You'll need a user variable, and calculate its value by subtracting 1 from the system variable cpQuizInfoTotalQuestionsPerProject. Same for the progress indicator if you want to show it?
Customized Progress Indicator - Captivate blog
If you want to allow Review, you'll have to tweak as well. You didn't specify the version, and all those questions I now mentioned.
And my approach, since you talk about only one question: create a custom question, because you'll have total control then.
