TRUNCATE PROBLEM

HI FRIENDS,
CAN ANY ONE TELL ,
FROM WHICH FUNCTI0N MODULE WE CAN TRUNCATE .
INPUT - > ABCDEFGH
OUTPUT - > ABCDE
IT'S URGENT,
PLZ. HELP ME

Hi,
You can use offset as below
Data: INPUT(10) TYPE C,
OUTPUT(5) TYPE C.
INPUT = 'ABCDEFGH'.
OUTPUT = INPUT+0(5). " OUTPUT WILL BE 'ABCDE'.

Input Truncated Problem

Dear all,
I have seen the "input truncated to n characters" messages on the forum here but my problem is a little different. When I run a sql from a file locally everything works fine. When I send the file to a customer for them to run on their database they get the following message:
SQL> @c:\sql\sql_to_run.sql
Package created.
Warning: Package Body created with compilation errors.
Input truncated to 1 characters
Trigger created.All of the messages on the forum that I have seen relate to this message appearing when a space is at the end of the file. Obviously this is happening in the middle of the file. Also, no matter how many spaces/linefeeds I do or donot put in I cannot duplicate this problem locally. Any suggestions would be helpful.

. Since you said input truncated is harmless, I assume it cannot have anything to do with the "Warning: Package Body created with compilation errorsIt may be that the Warning causes the input truncated, although it seems unlikely. You could try reproducing your customer's environment by setting the COMPATIBLE parameter to 8.1.7.
Cheers, APC

Hi,
I think somebody or some application is using the record and created a lock.
That's what is causing the problem.

Problem with MP3 audio books - truncating

My shuffle is truncating the end of each part (track?) of my MP3 audio books. It loses the last one or two sentences. Is there something I can do to fix this?
I'm using the OverDrive Media Console to borrow books from the library. I have no problem with WMA format books (they appear as audiobooks in the shuffle listing). The MP3 books show up as "Music".
I'm manually managing music, which is required to transfer audio from OverDrive to my shuffle.
MC754LL/A iPod shuffle 2 GB
Model A1373
software version is 1.0.1

I use "My Media Mall" (http://www.mymediamall.net) to check out audio books from the library. They come in 2 formats - mp3 & WMA. When I check out a book it downloads to OverDrive Media Console. Then in OverDrive I transfer the book to my shuffle (through the manually mange the storage option). If I then start itunes, I can see what's been downloaded and what all the properties are. By default WMA books are loaded as audiobooks and there is an automatic play list created. The mp3 books are loaded, by default, into the music section.
Per your original suggestion, I converted the "music" attribute to an "audiobook" attribute, which automatically move the files and created a playlist for the book. It did not stop the truncation problem. I then converted the book back to music, and selected the "gapless album" feature. This has significantly reduced the amount of truncation so that it's gone from a couple of sentences to less than a full sentence.
If I listen to the book on my computer (windows) through itunes, there are no gaps, and no problem automatically finding the next part to play.
FYI - each audiobook is made of several parts (usually 8 - 11 for the books I listen to). Each part contains multiple chapters. Some books only break parts over a chapter break, others seem to divide the parts into semi-equal sizes. If in the shuffle I "skip to next track", it starts the next part. The voice-over feature on the shuffle announces each playlist (eg. book1, book2) and then each individual part (book1 part 01, book2 part 02, etc.). Usually when I start a book, I use the voice-over to find the playlist instead of locating a specific part. If I've been listening to the book via itunes, then I'll have to step through the playlist until the second portion where it lists the individual portions.

Text is truncated on the right side of a text field. How to solve?

Hi group,
I use CR for the .NET Platform 10.2 (VS 2005/.net2.0). In several cases the texts in my crystal reports are truncated on the right side of the text fields (which can show more than one line and which are set in the way that it increases if more than one line is needed).
I created the CRs with CR in VS 2003. Then I migrated the VB.net project from VS 2003 to VS 2005. Then, when I opened a CR in VS 2005 and saved it again I got the message that it will be changed to the newer version if I click "yes" (or perhaps it was the "ok" button). I guess that was the moment the CR was migrated to the newer CR version.
Because of the truncation problem I created one of the CRs completely new with exactly the same settings (i.e. the heigths of the sections, the widths of the text fields, and all the other setting are completely identical to the CR created in VS 2003). Interestingly, the texts are truncated in none of the text fields any more.
Have I done the migration correcty? (Is it really opening the CR and saving it an saying "yes" or should I rather have done it in another way?)
Does somebody of you already have had this kind of problem? How could it be solved without creating all CRs anew?
Does recreating a CR which shows truncation of texts really solve it, or is truncation caused by something else, perhaps a certain property of a CR etc?
The "printer" is set to "no printer" in all CRs. The truncation does show independent of whether the registry entry "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Crystal Decisions\10.2\Crystal Reports\Export\PDF\ForceLargerFonts" is set to 1 or to 0.
Thanks for help in advance
Kind regards

Hi Ludek,
I already installed crvs05sp1 a few months ago (still traceable by the dir "C:Program FilesCommon FilesBusiness ObjectsPatchesCrystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET 2005 Service Pack 1" on my computer).
Unfortunately, I cannot find any fitting entry in the kbase. If I search for "text truncation" or "text truncated" i get results but they are about pdf or word or fixed truncation problems in older CR versions.
It seems as if I am the only one who has to face this problem :-).

Problem in File Channel

Hi,
I have a scenario whice is split in two parts (to be precise two saperate scenarios execute).
In the first one file is received from a SOAP channel as attachment, and through a receiver file channel it is sent to a local folder in XI.
In the second Interface, a File channel picks that files and througha SOAP channel sends it to the third party.
Now the issue is,
In the first interface the size of the file received and size of the file sent to XI folder is same, means no truncation is there.
But when the File is picked by the file channel in second interface, the file gets trucated and it only picks a part of the file.
Other interfaces are dealing fine with any file size, but only this particular interface is truncating data.
Any help on this will be appreciated,
Thanks,
Vikas

Hi Vikas,
I dont know why you designed interface like 2 flow,you can avoid one interface as per question
SOAP---->SAP PI----->File
File-->SAPPI---->Receiver.current flow,
you can make it SAOP--->pi--->Receiver,but i dont know why you developed as two flows..coming to truncation problem i dont think problem with communication channel,my advice to you check in Moni Outbound payload,if it is taking whole message then the problem with Maping,some where you done wrong.
else
first open the content of the file in wordpad and see,and check communication details.

Raj

BIP truncating long varchar2 values?

Okay, I readily admit I'm new to BIP, and I may well be making a stupid newbie mistake here.
I have a relatively simple query defined for a report:
select cio_s_num, potential_source
from cio_s_format
order by cio_s_numwhich is hitting an Oracle 10g schema/table. The 'potential_source' column is a varchar2(500), and there are values that vary in length from 2 chars to 250+.
When I save this query, and view the output in 'Data' format (aka the generated XML), BIP is truncating all the potential_source values at 175 characters. If I put together a template and generate PDF or HTML output, I see the same truncation.
The same table and query can be run in SQL*Plus, or in an Apex application, without any truncation problems.
I've checked for strange/unprintable characters in the data, but found nothing unusual.
I've tried doing a to_clob() conversion in the query - no change in behavior.
I've tried outputting length(potential_source) -- it's correct for shorter values but never greater than 175.
I've tried using substr() to fetch the string in sections -- apparently it sees no data beyond 175.
Running BIP 10.1.3.4, querying against Oracle 10g.
Is this a known limitation of BIP that my searches didn't uncover? A bug? A stupid user trick?
Thanks

New piece of information to throw in the mix -- a DBA checked a change log, and the POTENTIAL_SOURCE column in the table was at one point altered from varchar2(175) to varchar2(500). The table wasn't rebuilt or anything, a simple ALTER TABLE .. MODIFY command was used.
Could this be causing the data read problems -- whatever software/driver BI is using to talk to Oracle doesn't look for the "... oh, and there might be more data for that field over HERE" flag?
I've also tried adding a second long varchar2 column to the query (one our DBA has no record of previous altering), and the second column is NOT truncated. So the general functionality seems fine in our environment, it's some related to this data and/or table.

Printing to .pdf from Word, right margin is cut off or truncated. Is there a fix for this?

I often have to print Word (2011) documents to a PDF. I never noticed a problem before. But I noticed that recently (can't say when it started), the right margin is cut off or truncated. And I cannot figure out a way to stop it!
What has changed in Mountain Lion PDF creation via the Print function is causing this!
Any help would be appreciated!

I did find a solution, but it does not resolve the problem.
I have several printers installed on my MacBook Pro. The truncation problem happens whenever the printer selected is my new HP PhotoSmart 7515.
But, if I change the printer in the dialog box to my Brother HL-4070cdw before I try to print to a PDF, then the document contents are NOT truncated!
So I found a solution, but it is not a perfect one.
Hopefully this helps!

BO XI R2 - decimal numbers are truncated

Hi all,
When we create query in webitelligence the measure "item price" the decimal numbers are truncated/not shown. The right number is 23.123,55 but we get 23.123,00 ?
Configuration:
WIN 2003 server,
BOE XI r2 => IIS,
SAP int. kit XI r2
Thank you for reply!
Gregor

Hi Roman,
you can download the supported platforms list here [http://service.sap.com/bosap-support]. Just navigate to Documentation->Supported Platforms.
The work-around with the special system user may be used if you have truncation problems on your BOBJ server after installing the integration Kit for SAP. Please keep in mind that this is a work-around when using the integration Kit for SAP and not a recommendation for every installation. As far as I know this problem will be fixed in one of the future fix packs (at least for XI 3.x).

Truncate 4 characters from the end of a field

How would I go about trimming the last for characters in a field.

If you are truncating it using the Picture, it should always work. If you are doing it via the !format event, does your data file have a field with the same name as where you put the code?
I have to admit I dont have a need for truncation so Ive not done any testing besides Test Presentment. The SSN sample came from an actual production form. There isnt anything Im aware of that has to be added to jfpreamble we dont have any form (out of 100s) that has custom jfpreamble coding.
FYI: We almost exclusively use global field definitions in our data files. If you are using field field definitions that might make a difference. For example, this is a sample from the end of a data file:
>...
^global Authorized_Rep_Name
G KOCH
^global TimeRequested
11:54:21
^global DateRequested
12/05/2006
^global 12_Address_lines
MRS BARBARA PRODUCTION
MODIFIED 5606 MARK
ADDRESS LINE3
SEATTLE WA 98679-8816
^global CP_IA_Record_No
9
^global CP_Address_lines_REC
9
^global DAT_File_Name
PF_0020_20061205_115421
^global DoNotMail
^FORM _base_page_v1r3.mdf
^field MannerOfServiceImage
C:\JetForm\Forms\FirstClass.jpg
^FORM f-01-115-v1r4.mdf
^FORM f-01-115-v1r4-s.mdf
^FORM sep-pg9-v1r3-cso.mdf
^FORM f-01-115-v1r4-cso.mdf
If we used field definitions it would look more like:
>...
^form 1111111
^field AAAA
DATA-AAAA
^field BBBBB
DATA-BBBBB
^form 222222
^field CCCCC
DATA-CCCCC
^field BBBBB
DATA-BBBBB
In the first example the data is only defined once, followed by the forms it is to be applied to. In the second example if the data appears on two forms it has to be defined for each form.
I dont know if this would cause a difference in your truncation problem.

Epson 3880 problems with Yosemite

I always used Epson 3880 for printing large (Super A3 size) prints and I have not seen a problem until I upgraded to Yosemite.
The printer is still printing OK, except the bottom 2cm are truncated, just white paper appears where there should be a part of the picture.
Since I print the same image as a test chart as before, using the same settings on my Epson 3880, as with Snow Leopard. I first suspected the PhotoShop, so tried using the Preview and other photo editing programs, the page is always truncated about 2cm, no matter what settings I used, Fit ti screen, or 100%, nothing affects the stubborn truncating. I tried downloading the latest Epson drivers, from Epson web site, even used their new Preview program, rebooted number of times, tried loading the paper from the front, from the rear, and the problem is persistent. I wasted half a dozen expensive Super A3 Premium Matte papers, not to mention ink.
Then, I tried booting in Boot-Camp, with Windows 8.1, installed the Epson 3880 drivers there and there was absolutely no problem. The test chart printed exactly how I set it up over a year ago, using borderless printing, with 100% coverage, no truncating!
So, I am suspecting the Yosemite has some issue with Epson 3880 and paper size?
Can anybody help?

Hi guys,
I am happy to report that my "truncating" problem with my Epson 3880 is now resolved.
I spoke today with Epson people and they just advised that I should install the previous drivers for this printer, v.9.33, which was for Maverick, not Yosemite.
I didn't know how to uninstall the current driver (v.9.34) built-in the Yosemite, so I only used the "-" sign under the printers to remove it.
I installed this one, and it works like it should be.
I am not sure if this is Epson or Apple problem, so perhaps Apple should act in embedding it in the Yosemite.
I will copy and paste this comment and send it to Apple support, as suggested by Cunnla (in case they don't ready this forum).
Thank you for all that tried to help.

Supported pdf versions and mouse over problem for Xcelsius 2008 SP3

Hi,
Have below queries regarding Xcelsuis 2008 SP3.
(1) Encountered last character truncation problem for the x-axis and y-axis labels when viewed using adobe reader versions higher than 9.0.0. Viewing the pdf doc using adobe reader v9.0.0 has no label truncation problem. Preview in Xcesius is also ok.
(a) Y-axis label - eg. No. of students. The last char [s] is truncated when exported to pdf.
(b) X-axis label u2013 when labels are oriented vertically, they are very close to the x-axis. The last char is truncated.
Please advise what is the supported pdf versions for Xcelsius 2008?
Any workaround to overcome the truncation problem?
(2) Mouseover in charts. When the series name has < symbol, Xcelsius truncates the remaining text that's after the < symbol.
Is this a limitation that < symbol cannot be used? Any workarond for this? Any document to reference on the limitations of Xcelsius? e.g. If series name is '>1 and <=2', mouse over desc becomes '>1 and '.
Thanks and Regards.

Hi ,,There are a lot of developments in SP3 version. But some loopholes which I caughtu2026
1. The value button/spinner is no longer supporting a cell having some formula. Also the time it is taking to load data which depends on value button/spinner as a result of change in it, is comparably very high as compared to earlier version.
2. Still there is no component like pre-load animation. So it is difficult to know weather the tool is running or not when one selects an option in some selector.
3. One still finds it difficult to work with a large range of data/complex spread sheet in xcelsius as it crashes while exporting.
4. Export to excel still needs Tomcat Web server,Java help. It is not simplified.

Email ID truncating during Workflow -- URGENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear Friends,
Work flow is configured during the PO Creation. The issue is EMAIL Address is getting truncated when the address is more than 30 Characters.
Can anyone help me in solving this issue.
Thanks in Advance,
Shankar

See the <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/communityguidelines">Community Guidelines</a> for information about how you should ask a question (the section called Forum Rules of Engagement) to increase the likelihood of getting the best answers - that in turn will solve your problem sooner.
One guideline is as already mentioned by Martin that the level of urgency is not very relevant for the rest of us here. If anything you should quietly mention in the text what your deadline is. With all the exclamation marks you have used I assume it is now too late for you, but for the benefit of people who search the forum for a solution before posting a question I will still follow up the question.
Another guideline is that you must give sufficient information about your problem to increase the chance that someone recognizes, or becomes intrigued by, your problem.
Sorry, but I do not understand what your problem is. You are saying that the e-mail address is getting truncated. Which e-mail address? Which workflow?
Are you using WS20000075? That workflow does not take an e-mail address from the triggering event, or indeed in the container. It does send e-mail, but the workflow initiator is used as recipient, so no e-mail address there either. I therefore believe you must be using a different workflow, but I have no idea which one.
In general, if you are having truncation problems, you need to check the data flow (bindings and programs involved if any). Somewhere along the chain you have char(30) or equivalent data field that is used to hold the e-mail address.

Using Send Unix in ARD to copy files from laptops to server--

OK, you ARD "Send Unix" gurus, here's a question. I am still getting my feet wet in the Terminal and having lots of fun, no big mistakes yet..
I am looking for a solution to make a teacher's life easier. It's a writing class. Each day the students do a writing exercise with the MacBook or iBook carts, and the students seldom have the same computer twice. The laptops are bound to Active Directory, and a local user folder is created in /Users using our naming scheme lastname.firstname, and the teacher laptop has Apple Remote Desktop Admin.
Usually, students are supposed to save their documents to their own home folders on the server, but it's kind of wonky through the menus (until we get the Xserve up and running), so they usually save first to Desktop and then drag the files to their server home folder icon on the Dock. BUT, I'd like to set it up so the teacher can get copy of the Word document each day to read and archive. Setting up another share for the students to drag it to proved unreliable, e-mail is not an option (too much processing of individual files for the teacher), and the teachers can go into the home folders when absolutely necessary if one or a few kids forget, but not all of them each day.
Here's what I'd like to do-- create a script that the teacher could run in ARD to do the following to the group of MacBooks/iBooks:
copy contents of currently logged-in user's Desktop to /Volumes/mountednetworkdrive/sharename/classfolder/ AND rename the file if there is already one there with that name, do NOT overwrite.
The students are supposed to name their files last.first.doc, but they forget, and the test scripting I've tried overwrites Document1.doc with Document1.doc from another student. Since they put their names in the document itself, it's not a big deal to the teacher if they forget to name it correctly.
The major problems -- the variable for current user "~/" as in ls ~/Desktop/ doesn't seem to list the desktop contents of the current user on the remote machine, therefore I assume cp ~/ would also not work properly.
I have also be unable to find any documentation of any of the various copy commands that talks about renaming instead of overwriting (like web browsers do if you download the same file multiple times, for example, by appending a digit).
Options: Instead of renaming, copying the logged in user's whole Desktop directory (but not whole cached login) would eliminate the need to rename, but still not as handy as all the files in one directory. Eg. "cp /Users/(last.first)/Desktop /Volumes/mountednetworkdrive/sharename/classfolder/" but we'd need the folder name of the currently logged-in user to copy, too, (confusing I know) so that the teacher would then find in server/share/class/ a bunch of folders named last.first (the student names) with another folder called Desktop and their document inside. The rudimentary script I wrote above, even if it worked, would copy the whole cached home directory, which is too large with the Library, as well as the inevitable Photo Booth pictures.
Another option would be to copy the contents of the desktop to a new folder named after the logged in user (if that variable exists).
Arg. This was supposed to be simpler, but if there is any way to make this work, I'd appreciate any ideas.
Thanks

My usernames are shorter, so I never noticed that who only has 8 characters. Just to make it more interesting, the if command further down was goofed up by the forum. The ' -e "$DEST/$FILE" ' should have square brackets where the single quotes are in this sentence.
Fixing the truncating problem is interesting, especially with the forum goofing up my if statements. I guess I'll have to try single quotes and you'll have to change them with square brackets. It's important that the square brackets be a space away from what's inside them. Dump the cd line and replace it with:
USER=$(who | grep console | awk '{ print $1 }')
DIR=$(ls -1 | grep $USER)
if ' `echo $DIR | wc -w` -gt 1 '
then
echo "FAILURE!"
exit 1
else
cd /Users/$DIR/Desktop
fi
This code will bail out if it can't find a single user directory. I doubt it will work well if the short names have spaces either. Be careful of the back-ticks in the if statement! They are significant.
