Taxonomy Attribute Link Type

Hi,
Does anyone know what the functionality is for the field Link Type? It can be set to Master, Ordinary or Variant when taxonomy nodes are being linked to attributes.
thanks,
Morgan

Hi Morgan,
As per my understanding Link type Master, Variant and Ordinary will be used when we set up Matrix for Product Repository.
Please refer this below article step by step for more details to understand the use of Matrix.
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/9075aef0-2e4c-2b10-95b8-f9588b7213c1?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
Refer Page 10/12 Data Manager: Taxonomy Mode where you can define the attributes as Master, Variant or Ordinary.

Taxonomy Attribute Link

Hi people!
I'm having a big problem with taxonomy attribute link, I will give you an example what is happening:
I have a taxonomy field in my Materials Main Table called PDM, the problem is when I update the field PDM changing the actual category to another, when I have attributes filled with values and i change to a new category, the attributes that have value filled is replicated/linked to the new category I chose.
For example my record was set to a Shirt category, that have the following attributes:
- Color
- Shirt Type
- Size
In this scenario just the attribute Shirt Type is filled with some value, the others is blank
When i change the category for example from Shirt to Pants that have the following attributes:
- Color
- Pants Type
- Size
When I change the category of this record to Pants MDM show me the following message:
"The following attributes SHIRT TYPE will be linked to the new value you are assigning to 'PDM' because they are linked to the old value od 'PDM' and contain data values"
MDM only allow me to save if i clink in OK if i don't click it doesnt save the record. If i click in OK button it save the record but it link the attribute to the new category a chose.
Someone knows how to change this?
If i change the category it just change to the new one without carry the attributes?
Please someone help me!
Thanks in advance!

Thanks Minaz for answering!
I noticed that the attributes wich are copied is just the attributes with there is some value selected. The solution when change the category is to clean the attributes values first, save the record and then change the category!
Thanks so much for answering!

How to import taxonomy attribute links.

Hi frds,
Can any one guide me how can i import links to attributes of taxonomy. It would be great if any one explain in step by step?
Thanks alot,
Rajeev

If the external links are used in your site's pages, then Dreamweaver will pick them up automatically. Assets > URLs > Refresh Site List -- make sure you have a Dreamweaver site definition set up.
If not, create a page in GoLive, dump all the externals you need onto it, and save. Dreamweaver will then be able to pick them all up in the Assets panel.

Mandatory taxonomy attributes

Hi ,
How to make the taxonomy attributes mandatory apart from writing validations ? I have a requirement wherein not all the attributes for a class are mandatory .
Regards
Yogesh

Hello Yogesh
If we told about Data Manager(DM).
Unfortunately, you can't make attributes mandatory by another way.
In DM you see all attributes linked to selected taxonomy item.
You can't hide part of them, according you multistage business process.
But you can create validation for part of them as you need.
That will be combination from workflow, validation and assignment.
Use additional field where you will save current stage before
Validation will work depend of combination mandatory attributes and that field value.
Validation should have type "Error"
Assignment will launch(from WF) by the end of current stage and change old stage value to new.

Not able to open Modal Page through a report attribute link

Dear All,
Not able to open Modal Page through a report attribute link, kindly help me...
I am using skill builders modal page plugin ...
Thanks and Regards,
Madonna

Here's what you have to do.
You set up your column link like this:
Link text: whatever you like
Link attributes: onclick="return false;" class="open_modal"
Target: Page in this application
Page: number of the page you want to open in your modal window
You set up your dynamic action like this:
Event: Click
Selection type: jQuery selector
jQuery selector: .open_modal
(notice the dot at the beginning!)
Action: SkillBuilders Modal Page (2.0.0) [Plug-in]
Event Scope: Dynamic
And finally, in your True Action (SkillBuilders Modal Page (2.0.0)), URL Location should be set as Attribute of Triggering Element.
And that's pretty much all it takes.
Hope this helps.

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.
Check for similar reply from SAP for Qualified table in below thread.

Inserting a new row in a BC4J View Object with an attribute of type BFileDomain

Hi all,
I've to insert a row in a View Object with an attribute of type oracle.jbo.domain.BFileDomain.
I do this within an Application Module's method, which has an input parameter of type byte[]. This parameter will be the content of the BFILE.
What's the right way for doing that?
I've tried with the following code, but I've got an exception in committing the transaction:
public int serializeDocument(int codDomanda, int codSorgente, byte[] content, String est, int type, int cost, String title, String arg) throws JboException {
int code = 0;
//File f;
DocumentiTwoView = getDocumentiTwoView();
java.sql.Statement stmt = ((DBTransaction) getTransaction()).createStatement(1);
try {
Row docRow = DocumentiTwoView.createRow();
SequenceImpl seq = new SequenceImpl("documenti_seq", getDBTransaction());
Integer next = (Integer) seq.getData();
code = next.intValue();
docRow.setAttribute("Coddocumento", new Number(code));
docRow.setAttribute("Titolo", (String) title);
docRow.setAttribute("Argomento", (String) arg);
docRow.setAttribute("Costo", new Number(cost));
docRow.setAttribute("Tipo", new Number(type));
docRow.setAttribute("Coddomanda", new Number(codDomanda));
docRow.setAttribute("Codsorgente", new Number(codSorgente));
//f = new File("Doc" + code + "." + est)
BFILE src_lob = null;
ResultSet rset = null;
rset = stmt.executeQuery ("SELECT BFILENAME('DOC_DIR', 'Doc" + code + "." + est + "') FROM DUAL");
if (rset.next()) {
src_lob = ((OracleResultSet)rset).getBFILE(1);
BFileDomain bfd = new BFileDomain(src_lob);
bfd.setBytes(content);
bfd.saveToDatabase(getTransaction());
docRow.setAttribute("Contenuto", (BFileDomain) bfd);
catch (Exception ex) {
getTransaction().rollback();
throw new oracle.jbo.JboException("Impossibile creare il nuovo documento:\n" + ex.getMessage());

Odd, have you disabled caching and indirection? (NoIdentityMap, dontUseIndirection, or alwaysRefresh/disableCacheHits). If so, then this could be the issue.
Otherwise please include the sample code you use to perform this, and verify that you do not have any unusual code in your set/get methods or in descriptor events. Also turn TopLink logging on and include a sample. Also ensure that you do not modify your objects until after registering them in the unit of work, and only modify the unit of work clones.

Unable to read attribute of type TABLE

Hello IDM Gurus,
I was having some trouble reading data in the source tab from a temporary table created in a FROM AD Pass; specifically I am unable to read from an attrribute of type TABLE, which is being used for the memberOf attribute when reading members of a group from AD. I don't get any errors in the FROM Pass, nor do I get any errors when trying to read all other data from the temporary table; I'm able to read all data except the memberOf attribute of type TABLE; I've tried different variations of SELECT statements as well as different possible values in the destination tab but it still hasn't resulted in valid memberOf values from the temporary table.
I thought this would be a lot simpler than it's turned out to be; I would appreciate any help I could get on this issue.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Best regards,
Sandeep

Hi Achim,
Thank you for your quick response! I was actually able to spend a bit of time on the table itself and after experimenting a bit I managed to work out a query to correlate the memberOf values with the appropriate keys from the two separate tables in the same pass.
Thanks again for your suggestions!
Best regards,
Sandeep

Attachment error: Object Link type   in UWL

Hi,
This is regarding the UWL - opening the attachment.
we have integrated the solution manger to the Enterprise portal where
the workflow tasks of the solution manager will be displayed in the UWL
of the Enterprise portal.
The workitems are displayed properly, but when we try to see the actual
work item attachment it is giving error as follows:
"Attachment error: Object Link type . See log file for details "
The detailed error we have taken from the UWL.log, which displays as
follows:
" Mon Mar 12 20:45:42 GMT+05:30
2007:com.sap.netweaver.bc.uwl.core.connect.webflow.util.ObjectLinkException: Mon Mar 12 20:45:42 GMT+05:30 2007 CRM Context service has not

http://ep6devn:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.netweaver.bc.uwl.ui.UWLInformation?key1=AttachmentError&key1_param1= Object Link type .
Similarly if we try to open the same attachment in solution manager by
logging at SAP-GUI frontend i.e. through Tcode:SBWP and selecting the
workitem, choosing the objects and attachments. it is displaying the
actual message.
Enterprise portal current status: EP 6.0 NW2004-SP16

Problem with undesired rounding of entity attributes of type Number

Hello,
We have an entity object based on an oracle database table. Some of the columns of the table are of type NUMBER ( without specified precision and scale) and are mapped to attributes of type oracle.jbo.domain.Number as is the oracle recommendation and default behaviour. We have a view object based on this entity. We are using JSF <af:table> component to show and edit the contents of the view object.
In the database table we have values in the NUMBER columns like:
-.0000000000000696421833421346
8029.19708029197
-364.9641231232332
The problems is that these values get rounded to the 3th digit after the decimal point, without to have specified any formatting. The numbers shown in the <af:table> look like:
-0
8029.197
-364.964
We tested the ViewObject with the Business Component Browsers and there the values looked fine. In the JSF page we tried to comment out the <af:converter> but the result is the same.
The problem is where these values are rounded to the 3th digit after the decimal point. Is that an ADF configuration?
Please reply ASAP, the case is urgent, we are waiting on that to move our system to production.

Hi
I have a similar problem.
I want to load xml data into a table using the OracleXmlSave class.
There are long numbers to import (7638286488771946140)
When the destination field is of type NUMBER(38), everything is alright. But when there is no precision specified (just NUMBER) the numbers are rounded to 14 digits
7638286488771946140 -> 7638286488771950000
When i insert numbers with TOAD, everything's alright, even with "just-NUMBERs".
Any ideas?

LSO Create Course Links link types (restrict link types)

Hi all,
a question to pose for some of those IMG gurus out there!
We are implementing LSO (and its Portal front-end) and a requirement to 'limit the course link types available to users' has cropped up.
Specifically, what we're trying to achieve is the following:
1. Course Admin runs 'Create or Change Course'
2. After selecting the location, etc, the admin clicks on the Links tab to add links to the course
3. A list of predefined links (inherited from the course type) are already listed. User clicks 'Add' to add some more.
4. A pop up appears. Here you may select the Link Type. Our choices are 'Web Link' (i1061) and 'Collaboration Room' (i5045).
We only want 'Web Link' to appear in the drop-down list of Link Type options. Short of enhancements to strip out the values is there a means of manipulating the Link Types available to a user when they add Links to a new Course? This is where I'm hoping a config activity is available in IMG. It may be that because the Course infty and Web Link/Collaboration Room infty are related, we can't do this, but I'll pose the question anyway as it is (so far proved to be!) a tricky one.
Many thanks for any advice; points for assistance.
Hagen

I do not paste images from clipboard (I consider it bad practice) but I have clients who do.
In my experience InDesign does not lower the resolution, but the pasted image is RGB. That and the fact that it doesn't show up in the links is why I don't like it.
Are there any other link types? It seems like this would be a type (if it showed up in links panel), since it is not really imported.
The only way I know to make them links is copy, paste into blank Photoshop, save that then place that into InDesign. This is easy to do, but finding all these pasted graphics can be time consuming, since they are not in links list.
This would apply to raster images only, since pasted vector art converts to the native InDesign platform.

As already pointed out, there is no way to specify a generic type in a tag library descriptor. You may however specify an Object type in your tld and still have the variable in your tag as a parameterized generic type.
In your tld change the type to Object.
<type>java.lang.Object</type>.
The properties tag itself needs no change and can continue to use parameterized types.
