Templates in release 2

I am trying to make the translation from templates in R1 to R2. In R1 you applied a template to a page (giving it the same look and feel) and then made other changes to the page (add portlets etc.). In R2, the doc
says that once a template is created no other changes can be made. Can somebody shed some light on how to use templates in R2?

Hi,
I dont think that is the case. You can attach a template to a page and can still add portlets to the page. What you cant do is add
new regions or delete the existing regions. The template actually decides the layout and layout is all about addding new regions and
removing the existing regions. When you attach a template the layout is controlled by the template and it is not possible to delete or
add regions which would affect othere pages using the same template. You can detach the template from the page and then change the
layout. There is also a option to change an existing page to a template.
Thanks,
Sharmila

Appraisal Template-Cancel Release

Hi All
Please suggest for the following.....
I created an Appraisal Template in PHAP_CATALOG.
Then I released it & created some Appraisal Documents. Now I want to make some changes in the Template but for that I have to cancel the Release first.
So, I deleted all the Appraisal Documents using PHAP_ADMIN.
But, now when I try to cancel the release system doesnt allow me & throws the following error.....
''The element you have chosen is already being used in an appraisal document or anonymous appraisal.''
Although I have deleted all the Appraisal Documents using PHAP_ADMIN.
Please Suggest
Thanks & Regards

Hi Garry
Yes, you are absolutely correct even though there are no appraisal documents existing for an appraisal template at times system gives this error message, i think there is some problem with the standard SAP itself. I have also faced this issue and for testing purpose i have used a custom deletion program which would delete the documents from the database directly (RHHAP_DISPLAY_DB), I was not bothered to create an OSS message since this scenario is not a PRD scenario.
Try creating a OSS msg for this issue.

RELEASE NOTES R180 - scheduled for September 25th 2012

We are announcing a new Business Catalyst release, scheduled to go live on Tuesday, September 25th.
This release includes some great improvements to our module templates, new features for our email marketing system, admin interface improvements, a few infrastructure updates and lots of bug corrections.
Read through the following sections to get detailed information about this release:
Features and enhancements
Issues fixed by this release
You can jump to the corresponding section by clicking the above links.
Features and enhancements
Modules improvement
Starting with our September release, we have enabled users to use a html page or a static template as a module list template (layout) for all modules that are using templates today. The new addition allows partners to create different views for the same data for a personalize experience. To use this new functionality, just create a new module template and update your module properties by specifying the template to use.
Ex: {module_blogsitepost,2 template="/ModuleTemplates/Custom/MyTemplate.tpl"}
Note: although you can use any extension you feel comfortable with, we recommend using a .tpl extension for two reasons: help locate the template better and avoid having these templates being displayed in Page list.
Email marketing application improvements
This is release is packed with new features and enhancements to our email marketing system.
Dynamic modules in email campaign - you can include modules (a subset of 19 modules) in the Email Campaigns content; the system will render these modules right before the campaign is sent, making sure your customers always receive the latest content;
Fresh, new email templates - the release includes a set of new of new email templates that look much better; along with these new templates, the template selection page was re-done to show better thumbnails;
Improved recipients selection - we have improved the recipients wizard step, replacing the checkbox list with a smart search and select control; additionally, with this release you will be able to select multiple lists (including Customer Reports) to exclude from your campaign.
Improved campaign status screen - before sending the campaign, you will now be able to view the exact number of recipients before sending the campaign (Note: reports and list requiring a long time to compute will be approximated); additionally, while the campaign is sending, we are displaying a meaningful status, that indicates that the campaign is being sent.
Email clients reporting - the campaign report screen has also been improved to include a report showing you the email clients used to read your campaigns.
Admin console improvements
We have updated our new admin user interface and replaced the insert module and insert tag panels with the new Business Catalyst toolbox almost everywhere. With the new toolbox we'll make it easier for partners and business owners to insert and customize module or tags into pages, templates or system emails. The toolbox user interface will opened by default for partners for faster access to tags and modules.
Other changes
Some FTP improvements (better error codes, performance, etc) and SFTP support
DNS improvements (support for setting up Google Apps email out of the box, several bug fixes)
When you change your email address on adobe.com, it syncs automatically with BC
Various improvements of the caching engine for static assets

Thanks Mario, what is missing from the post and this notification is a fundamental pieces of information "TIMES". This is not just your info but also the release by Jackson Palmer on the blog - totally missed there also
We need to be notified of the sceduled timing of this release not just a vague date which is not specific globally
25th but we are global - what time specifically 0100am PST is very different to 1030pm PST , the latter being 26th in AU
Why - because campaigns scheduled for around this time can be impacted, and also if the sites go offile during the maintenance window campaigns can be a wasted exercise.
Previously mid week schedules have been a matter of heated discussion, yet the support guys say that schedule ahas not been decided upon
Not planning is planning to fail, and we have witnessed that all to ofetn in the past. BC unfortunately has a history of failing to plan and inform, and this does little to activate confidence in the community.
I have discussed with Dragos on numerous occassion how the missing ingridents at BC like communication, UX, planning and most importantly understanding from the customer perspective (rather than backroom coders).
eg at 645am 26th of Sept 2012 we have a email campaign scheduled ( and can be rescheduled ), the issue I see is without your maintenance window timings being published in a timely manner how can we tell if we move to a sooner or later timing. You have to agree it is disasterious marketing to blast out a campaign and find systems down when customers open newsletter offers and want to shop then.
If the time schedule is listed somewhere else even more shame that it is overlooked as an inclusion here plus that Chat team are not informed and kept up to date and the blog is just fluff sales and chest beating. That is not support of partners regargless of paid or free status.
To much time is wasted with this sort of unthinking about unpublished / incomplete notifications, Live chat guy wasted > 15 min of his and my time becuase they don't know either, how many others are being inconvenienced by fialing to plan and notify information to act upon, this communication in the blog is good info but by itself useless and creates more doubt and lack or faith. Just look at the "hope in the comments"

Performance Mgmt - Define tabs and process configuration for templates

Hi,
I would like to utlize the feature of process/phase/step configuration for appraisals by the Web Dynpro configuration for tab and process. I choose the "Process Configuration" tab, enter my appraisal template and period, and click "Start Selection". A warning is displayed "No process defined for <my appraisal template>". Clicking on "Add" and no matter what I did, I don't seem to be able to maintain any process/phase/step into the "Configure Available Elements for Process" table. What is the pre-requisite to maintain and configure the Process/Phase/Step(s) ?
How do I maintain the in preparation, in planning etc statuses in here, I created templates using SAP defined templates for ex: templates for performance feedback etc., statuses are maintained in there by default.
Can you please suggest anything?
Thanks
Murthy

Hi Munny, I am experiencing the same condition. I have released my template and when I go thru the IMG to the 'Define Tabs & Process Configuration' selection I get the browser screen for setting up the tabs and process. I click on the Process tab and see the screen but the New and Delete buttons are not active (grey'ed out). I toggled my review template (cancelled release and re-released) to see if it changed the symptoms but it did not.
All - are there other conditions that must be met before setting up the Process steps vis the IMG ? I have all of the Status/substatus config complete and it shows up in the right side, but I cannot add anything to the left side to define the process.

Region Template in ContentPresenter - JDeveloper

Hello together,
is it possible to use a SiteStudio Region Template in the Content Presenter, when I add the Content Presenter in JDeveloper to a jspx page.
Here is a screen shot from the properties:
http://s14.directupload.net/images/140122/fxmb3mog.jpg
The senario:
I use a query to select a Contributor Data File from the Content Server and now I want to select a suitable template from the Content Server as well.
What do I have to do? Is this senario actually possible?
Thanks for your answers.
Lukas

Hi.
In official documentation Creating Content Presenter Display Templates - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.8.0) you'll find following:
Oracle recommends that you use Content Presenter ADF templates to integrate Site Studio and WebCenter Portal instead of Site Studio region templates. The recommended flow is:
Develop region definitions in Site Studio
Develop ADF templates referencing region definitions using JDeveloper
Publish the templates and import them into Portal Server
Use Content Presenter to render the content and to enable users to contribute content
Why recommends this way?.
Performance and caching.
Site Studio will be deprecated in the future.
Integrates perfectly with ADF / Portal in terms of Framework, access and allows you to pass parameters / variables.
When to use Region Template?.
When you have do internal or use complex functions of UCM.
As backward compatibility with old Region Templates built in Site Studio.
I hope it helps.
Regards.

Enforce template via group policy

HI,
I have deployed the Office2013 template and I could see the settings for Office2013 applications are available for users to select
Is there a way to enforce to virtualize the Office2013 applications setting? V 2.0 only includes the policies for Office2010
thanks
Andy

There is currently no Group Policy template for Office 2013 as the Office 2013 template was released after the UE-V 2.0 Template Release. The Group Policy templates will be refreshed with the upcoming
release of UE-V 2.1.

Dynamic template/layout creation in report for web

Hi,
I need some info on how to create dynamic template in report 3.0,
I have to develope one report and it does not have a predefined
template. The display and query will change according to an user
input through parameter form. I have an idea, I have designed a
meta data table to create the template and populate the template
with the query, The report will also take input from the
user(this one I have already figured out, I can embed
Javascript/HTML coding to display edit box/check box etc.). What
I m looking for is a way to generate dynamic template. Like is
there any SRW kind of feature which I can use in
after_parameter_form to create a dynamic layout, pls respond if
anyone has done this before or have any idea

Hi Ravi,
I worked on the same requirement but from a service perspective. So below are the activities I maintained to achieve this.
1. Create a service order template type (copy of std).
2. Maintain the copy control settings for both header and items to the service order quotation.
3. Create Service Order Templates and enter the commonly used items in the template. Release the service order template.
4. When creating a service order quote - at the item level, you can see the button "Copy from Template". Click on this
5. This opens up a pop-up where in you can search for all released service order templates.
6. Select the one you need, the items maintained in that order template is copied over to the service order quote.
So the user does not need to enter all the items manually. This is how you user order templates. Please note that it copied only the items, not the header details of the service order template.

Multiple Summary Pages

How can I use multiple summary pages in a single OPM project ?

If possibly using JS/Jquery anyway, I'd suggest you don't need multiple summary screens but instead a a single summary screen from OWD with a single list of goals presented by default. Use JS to add a search function and dynamically modify the HTML to make the sorted/grouped lists appear as you desire (on the same page without any requests to the server). Only upon clicking on a goal would the question pages in pursuit of the selected goal begin.
You might get some good ideas on implementation from the searchable combo-boxes in v10.4.1 - summary video available at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmmQeFt6qCQ&list=UUtUHPDCD1EFH_ftnhR_i-dQ&index=5&feature=plcp shows the properties that control behavior.
You'll probably want to look at the velocity templates in \Release\web-determinations\web-inf\classes\templates\ (after a build). Look at question_screen.vm for an example of how the comboboxes are rendered and for javascript inclusion within a velocity template. Also look at summary_screen.vm as that is what renders the summary screen and will likely be where you will want to add your JS search functionality. (also shows how the list of goals is rendered by default).

Error while using xdofx calculations in xdoxslt function

Hi All,
I have a requirement to subtract two dates in the rtf and display the difference in years and months. Among the two dates, one is in Date datatype and the other one is in varchar2(dff attribute).Following are the details:
1.Start_date(Date data type) - appears as YYYY-MM-DD in the XML when the tag is printed as it is without any manipulations.
2.End_Date(Varchar2 - dff attribute) - appears as YYYY/MM/DD HH:MI:SS in the XML whent the tag is printed as it is wihtout doing any manipulation.
As the first step am trying to convert the varchar2 to canonical date format and then converting it to required format compatible for using date_diff function. But am facing issues. Please help me with this. The following is the code am trying to use.
To convert end date to date format of our choice : <?xdofx:to_date(replace(substr(EndDate,1,10),’/’,’-’)||’T00:00:00.000+05:30’,'YYYY-MM-DD')?>
To subtract end date and start date to fetch difference in years: <?xdoxslt:date_diff('y',StartDate,xdofx:to_date(replace(substr(EndDate,1,10),’/’,’-’)||’T00:00:00.000+05:30’,'YYYY-MM-DD'),$_XDOLOCALE, $_XDOTIMEZONE)?>
Am getting an error which says xdofx used bot not declared. If I remove it, I get an error saying to_Date function not found. I belive we're not supposed to mix xdofx and xdoxslt together. Please let me know how this can be achieved.
Am using 10.1.3.4.2 version of BIP.
Regards,
Divya

according to Extended Function Support in RTF Templates - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
<?xdoxslt:date_diff('y', 'YYYY-MM-DD', 'YYYY-MM-DD', $_XDOLOCALE, $_XDOTIMEZONE)?>
This function provides a method to get the difference between two dates in the given locale. The dates must be in "yyyy-MM-dd" format. This function supports only the Gregorian calendar. The syntax is as follows: <?xdoxslt:date_diff('format', 'YYYY-MM-DD', 'YYYY-MM-DD', $_XDOLOCALE, $_XDOTIMEZONE)?> where format is the time value for which the difference is to be calculated. Valid values are:
y - for year
m - for month
w - for week
d - for day
h - for hour
mi - for minute
s - for seconds
ms - for milliseconds
very strange for hour, minute .... and "The dates must be in "yyyy-MM-dd" format."
but for your case
display the difference in years and months.
it's ok
so
1.Start_date(Date data type) - appears as YYYY-MM-DD in the XML when the tag is printed as it is without any manipulations.
2.End_Date(Varchar2 - dff attribute) - appears as YYYY/MM/DD HH:MI:SS in the XML whent the tag is printed as it is wihtout doing any manipulation.
Start_Date and End_Date must be in "yyyy-MM-dd"
for "Start_date" - that's ok
for End_Date we must reformat as
concat(substring(//End_Date,1,4),'-', substring(//End_Date,6,2),'-', substring(//End_Date,9,2))
so as result:
- for months:
Diff is <?xdoxslt:date_diff('m', //Start_Date, concat(substring(//End_Date,1,4),'-', substring(//End_Date,6,2),'-', substring(//End_Date,9,2)), $_XDOLOCALE, $_XDOTIMEZONE)?>
which gives output as
Diff is 1
for test case
<Start_Date>2013-01-11</Start_Date>
<End_Date>2013/02/11 11:00:00</End_Date>
- for years:
Diff is <?xdoxslt:date_diff('y', //Start_Date, concat(substring(//End_Date,1,4),'-', substring(//End_Date,6,2),'-', substring(//End_Date,9,2)), $_XDOLOCALE, $_XDOTIMEZONE)?>
which gives output as
Diff is 3
for test case
<Start_Date>2013-01-11</Start_Date>
<End_Date>2016/02/11 11:00:00</End_Date>

BaDI for quotation transaction in SAP CRM

As per our business process, we need to release quotations from CRM to R/3. Before this is done, the partner functions on the quotation screen have to be updated with new number series.
