SOS -- Exporting data and creating documents  -- SOS

Hi all. I've a "little" problem!
I'm implementing an application for a public administration and the users would like to create and print documents (official acts) either through a custom form or with a concurrent request. Furthermore these users prefer these docs in word and we dont know if it's possible (maybe we can try workin with .rtf format).
The problem is that we dont know how to begin and what is the easiest way to do that.
I hope that someone can help us!!
Thx all!!
Jaco

Jaco - You didn't say what application you're implementing but since you're posting in an E Business Suite forum, I'll assume we're talking about Oracle 11i...
11i has many seeded reports which can be customized through a variety of means. There's Oracle Reports which can be used to customize the seeded .rdf or create new rdfs.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/reports/index.html
Lots of 3rd party products exist to further customize the rdfs - Optio is one we use.

There's a product called XML Publisher which uses Word and Excel to customize documents. http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/applications/publishing/index.html

    Here's some info on working with plists:
    http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/PropertyLists/Introduc tion/chapter1_section1.html
    They can be edited with any text editor. Xcode provides a graphical editor for them - make sure to use the .plist extension so Xcode will recognize it.

  • Difference between document date, posting date and created on date in FI

    hi
    Would like to know in which scenario can the document date be different from posting date in case of incoming payment which reamains unallocated for a while.
    Please correct my understanding : created on date will be the date on which we enter/create in SAP which can be different in case we are uploading the documents from legacy sys.
    But will it be different from posting and document date in case this document was created in SAP itself.
    Thanks and regards,
    Sarah.

    Hi
    Document date and creation date are same ie date on which document is created but the posting date is the date on which the document is posted lets say for example a document is created on friday 5:55 as the office gets closed at 6 and sat sun is off now the posting date will be date on monday or the date after monday when the document gets all the necessary approvals
    so it can be posible that posting date and creation date are same for a document and vice versa is also true
    thanks

  • Billing document date and accounting document date varying...

    Hello Experts,
    There is one billing document and the date of invoice is, say today, 12/01/2009. and the accounting document date is, say 15 days ahead or behind, 27/01/2009.however, the posting date is proper and according to the billing date and that is again dated today-12/01/209. Now, the user wants to know why the difference exists between the accounting document date and the billing date. any idea? there are some user exits being used but I cant make out, neither the abaper. suggestions please.
    Regards,
    N.Raja Sekhar.

    Dear Raja Sekhar
    Document date is nothing but the date on which that particular transaction has taken place.  But I dont know where you get the date as 27-01-2009.
    It is a general practice that for exports billing document, there would be a Posting block and once the exporter receives the B/L, based on that date, the billing document would be released manually.  For this, there is an user exit to input the B/L number and date and release the billing document.
    So here, what the end users normally does is that the B/L Date might be on 02-01-2009 but he would not have updated on the same date.  At a later date, say on 12-01-2009, he can input the B/L Date (in another words, it is Posting date) as 02-01-09 and execute the billing document.
    If you see the accounting document here, the posting date would have been 02-01-2009 but the document date would be 12-01-09.
    thanks

  • Readingout date and create a folder

    Hi,
    I'd like to use automator to do the following:
    reading out the creationdate of the raw-files in a folder ->creating folders that are named with the date of the files -> move the raw-files to the created folders.
    How can I do that?
    Thanks for hints and tips!

    The following AppleScript action will take Finder items as it's input (for example, from Ask for FInder Items + Get Folder Contents), make new folders (as needed) named with the item creation date, and move the items into the appropriate folders:
    <pre style="
    font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;

    width: 720px; height: 340px;
    color: #000000;
    background-color: #FFDDFF;
    overflow: auto;"
    title="this text can be pasted into an Automator 'Run AppleScript' action">
    on run {input, parameters} -- move files
    make new folders from file creation dates (if needed), then move document files into the folders
    input: a list of Finder items (aliases) to move
    output: a list of the Finder items (aliases) moved
    set output to {}
    set SkippedItems to {} -- this will be a list of skipped items
    tell application "Finder" to repeat with AnItem in the input -- step through each item in the input
    set {class:TheClass, container:TheContainer} to (get properties of AnItem)
    if TheClass is document file then try -- just documents
    do shell script "mdls -name kMDItemContentCreationDate " & quoted form of POSIX path of AnItem
    tell (words of the result) to set TheDate to item 3 & "-" & item 4 & "-" & item 5
    try -- check if the target folder exists
    get ("" & TheContainer & TheDate) as alias
    on error -- make a new folder
    make new folder at TheContainer with properties {name:TheDate}
    end try
    move AnItem to the result
    set the end of output to (result as alias) -- the new file aliases
    on error -- permissions, etc
    set the end of SkippedItems to (TheName & TheExtension) as text
    end try
    end repeat
    if SkippedItems is not {} then -- handle skipped items
    set TheCount to (count SkippedItems) as text
    choose from list SkippedItems with title "Error with moving files" with prompt "The following " & TheCount & " items were skipped:" with empty selection allowed
    if result is false then error number -128 -- user cancelled
    set {TempTID, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to {AppleScript's text item delimiters, return}
    set SkippedItems to SkippedItems as text
    set AppleScript's text item delimiters to TempTID
    display alert "Error with moving files" message "The following " & TheCount & " items were skipped:" & return & SkippedItems alternate button "Cancel" default button "OK"
    if button returned of the result is "Cancel" then error number -128
    end if
    return the output -- pass the result(s) to the next action
    end run
    </pre>
    I've tested it with a few items, but it is always a good idea to test with smaller batches before turning it loose on a lot of files.

  • How to update data and create notification no using isr fm.

    Hi,
    Without creating the scenario in SFP, is it possible to update data directly in ISR_SPECIAL_DATA_SET,
    i want to use fm ISR_SPECIAL_DATA_GET in my program.
    i'm trying to achive same using ISR_NOTIFICATION_CREATE and built general, special table and long text to get a
    notification number. but  notification no is not creating ,  return msg is  ( E I 421   |Notification type  not defined ) even i'm passing currect notif type.                            
    Regards
    Ali

    Hi vijay,
    Nice to see your reply, I think, you are right...
    The Fm ISR_SPECIAL_DATA_GET already used in my various reports, Workflows etc.
    And I have a custom WebDynpro java based application which have similar data and have custom notification no. + (in this case probably i need to create new fm ZISR_SPECIAL_DATA_GET to use in above report and wf)+
    To avoid the rework and minimized the code Iu2019m trying to create notification no using standard fm and link custom WD data with ISR_SPECIAL_DATA_GET.
    Please let me know how to proceed with that
    Regards

  • I read that Lion will not support my Quicken and/or Appleworks.  How am I going to use my financial data and my documents?

    I have read that Lion will not support Quick and/or Appleworks.  How am I to continue to use my financial data and documents?

    I posted this answer to the same question about AppleWorks in the AppleWorks community two days ago.
    I use iWork. The iWork applications - Keynote, Pages & Numbers - can only open AppleWorks 6 presentation, word processing & spreadsheet documents, respectively. They will not open any other type of AppleWorks 6 files or any AppleWorks 5 or any version of ClarisWorks files.
    The third-party application, EazyDraw, can open AppleWorks draw documents. If you still have access to AppleWorks you can copy the contents of draw documents, paste them into an AppleWorks word processing document in object mode (click the arrow in the tool panel), save the WP document & then open it in Pages. You can copy & paste from AppleWorks to Pages but you would have to do it object by object or it will be one big uneditable object. Check Yvan Koenig's iDisk for many AppleScripts he has written to make conversion easier. Most are made to do batch conversions.
    There is nothing other than AppleWorks that can open paint or database documents. Database data can be copied & pasted into an AppleWorks spreadsheet, saved & opened in Numbers or saved as ASCII/plain text & opened in most any spreadsheet, database or word processing program. Paint documents can be saved as one of many different formats to be opened in most image editing programs. I recommend using PICT or PNG for best results.
    For a replacement for Quicken, I've narrowed my choices down to SEE Finance, Moneydance or Jumsoft's Money. I need to work with them more before I make my final decision. Mac | Life suggests SEE Finance as the best option.

  • Difference between Data and Create data

    Hi ,
    Can any one please tell me the difference between CREATE DATA and DATA statement.
    What all situations we need to use the create data statement.
    Thanks in advance.
    Joe

    Hi,
    here is a quote from ABAP documentation.
    Unlike the DATA statement, CREATE DATA creates the data object at execution time. DATA creates declared data objects when the corresponding program unit is loaded.
    More info can be found in ABAP documentation. CREATE DATA is usually used in dynamic programming where you work with generic types.

  • Migrate from File Server Shared Drives to Document Libraries, while Keeping Modified and Created Date

    I am doing some file migration for a client, using SharePoint 2013 on prem.
    Whether copying files from a local or network drive, to a Document Library, or from Document Library to other Document Library, I want the option of
    preserving file dates and created/modified by fields.
    I am developing a pretty cool tool in Excel to analyze files and directory names for restricted characters, large file sizes, and long path names...and then
    it generates copy commands or rename commands as desired. I will share this with you if you like. This little glitch is the last remaining barrier.
    Can we copy and retain Modified/Created Data and time? Can I do this using xcopy or robocopy or do I need to use powershell, ShareGate, or some other tool?
    I have tried Windows Explorer drag-n-drop, "robocopy /COPY:DAT" and "xcopy /k"
    and these seem to work great in th CMD window until you display the resulting files in SharePoint...and the modified date shows as now and modified by
    shows as me.
    Any suggestions you can provide are most welcome.

    rajiv kumar

    Hi,
    The absic difference is,
    Document Created Date: The date on which the document was created by the user in SAP.
    Billing Date: The date on which the invoice was created. For example, the user maybe entering the invoicein SAP on 1st december. But in reality the invoice was issued on 30th Nov. Due to some holiday or some reason the user was not able to create on 30th nov and creates it on1st dec. So he makes the invoice date as 30th nov and the document creation date would be 1st dec by default.
    Let me know if this explanation is still not clear.

    Rohan Gudavalli.

  • Data and Cleansing export TO SQL table with Melissa Data appended fails

    I am using Data Quality services with Melissa Data Address Check as reference data.  Everything works fine until I take the option to export Data and Cleansing Info which will give me my cleansed data plus additional data points such as geocodes from
    Melissa.  When I do it fails with the error below.
    (Failed to create a new table geocode in database DQS_STAGING_DATA. Check whether the table already exists  and have the database administrator make sure the DQS Service has CREATE TABLE rights in the destination database and can INSERT to the destination
    table.)
    This error makes no sense as the table does not exist and I do have proper rights. I can export Data and Cleansing data if Melissa Data is not involved  ,  when I dig further it seems to be complaining about column header lengths.   
    The identifier that starts with 'Address Validation_Melissa Data Corporation - Address Check - Verify, Correct, Geocode US and Canadian Addresses_CBSADivisionCod' is too long. Maximum length is 128.;
    The identifier that starts with 'Address Validation_Melissa Data Corporation - Address Check - Verify, Correct, Geocode US and Canadian Addresses_DeliveryPointCo' is too long. Maximum length is 128.;
    The identifier that starts with 'Address Validation_Melissa Data Corporation - Address Check - Verify, Correct, Geocode US and Canadian Addresses_ResponseRecordI' is too long. Maximum length is 128.;
    The identifier that starts with 'Address Validation_Melissa Data Corporation - Address Check - Verify, Correct, Geocode US and Canadian Addresses_DeliveryPointCh' is too long. Maximum length is 128.;
    The identifier that starts with 'Address Validation_Melissa Data Corporation - Address Check - Verify, Correct, Geocode US and Canadian Addresses_CBSADivisionLev' is too long. Maximum length is 128.;
    The identifier that starts with 'Address Validation_Melissa Data Corporation - Address Check - Verify, Correct, Geocode US and Canadian Addresses_CongressionalDi' is too long. Maximum length is 128.;
    The identifier that starts with 'Address Validation_Melissa Data Corporation - Address Check - Verify, Correct, Geocode US and Canadian Addresses_CBSADivisionTit' is too long. Maximum length is 128.;
    I can see no option to control these column headers in DQS.  Has anyone else experienced this ?  Does anyone know of a workaround ? 
    I have already reported to Melissa data and they agreed the problem was the column header length but said they also had no control of that.

    You can create an SR with a based outbound filter. All object that match the filter will be provisioning to CS SQL (if you do not define filter, all objects will be provisioning).
