Unique ID or reference number?

How do I create or enable a form to generate a unique ID or reference number when submitted?
The person that receives a copy of his form should see the number as well as the author.

How to change the unique reference number of a EUL in Discoverer 4i

Hi,
My Discoverer version is 4i which comes default with EBS 11i.
Now i have created a New Custom EUL Using Database Exp and Imp.
According "http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B25016_08/doc/dl/bi/B13916_04/maintain_eul.htm#i1008612"
"if you use the database export and import utilities to copy an EUL, the new EUL (including its reference number) will be identical to the original EUL"
I have to change the Reference Number of New EUL.
This can be done by
start d:\<ORACLE_ HOME>\discoverer\util\eul5_id.sql
But i could not find this sql in 4i Discoverer Home.
/8.0.6/discwb4/util
Can any one help me in finding this.
Thanks in Advance
Krishna

Hi Krishna
The file is not called EUL5_ID.SQL in Discoverer 4i, I believe it is called EUL_ID.SQL.
Oracle only introduced the EUL5 notation when Discoverer 10g was released. This has continued on into 11g.
Why not go straight to 11g? Discoverer 4 is old and no longer supported.

How do I link and be able to go to a reference number in the body of the text to the references I am wishing to go to?

Example:
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with increased
reduced slow wave sleep.1
to:
1. Ng AK, Guan C. Impact of obstructive sleep apnea on sleep-wake stage ratio.
Conf Proc IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc 2012;2012:4660-3.
Thank you,
David A Walker, DO

Hi David,
Since your post is in the Standards & Accessibility (tagged PDF) discussion area, I am guessing that your objective is to tag the reference and footnote or endnote to ensure accessibility by assistive technology users. A good practice is to nest the reference number in a Reference tag, and the footnote or endnote in a Note tag, then position the Note as close as practical to the Reference in the tag structure without disrupting the reading order. In this case the tags would look something like this:
<P>
...Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with increased reduced slow wave sleep.
...<Reference>
......1
...<Note>
......1. Ng AK, Guan C. Impact of obstructive sleep apnea on sleep-wake stage ratio.
The current version of the Matterhorn Protocol requires the Note tag to have a unique ID in the Object Properties. The ID is not used for anything though, and the requirement will reportedly be removed from future versions.
Hope this helps.

How can I get a Visa Reference Number on a Spectrum Analyzer?

I have a GPIB Address of 18 on a 8593 EM Spectrum Analyzer. How can I get a VISA reference Number for my VI program

You must have a pretty old version of LabVIEW if you need a session ID instead of just a VISA Resource. If that's the case, you need to first use an VISA Open function in which you specify a resource name of GPIB::18. The open function will return a unique ID that you wire to either VISA Write/Read or a subVI in a driver.

Alternate way of finding the Windows Reference Number

Hello,
I am using some of the Windows Utilities VIs and I have run into a snag. In my application I lauch multiple template VIs and hence have many Windows that have the same name. This causes a bit of confusion when using a VI like "Flash Title Bar" which takes in a window's name to determine it's reference number. MY question is, is there an alternative method of finding out a window's reference number without having to supply the window's name? Something that determines each window's unique number. I checked various Application and VI Properties without much luck. Perhaps is there some way of converting VI reference to Windows Reference. I dunno. Any ideas???
Thanks fellow LabVIEWers,
Glen D.

Auto reference number

How do I display a reference number, ie the primary key value
of a particular record on a page? I have a form on the first page
and after submitting and being entered into the database, the next
page should show the unique primary key for that record from the
database. I assume I must use a session variable but am not too
sure on how to do this. Thanks very much.

This is a little complicated, but explainable.
First, the primary key isn’t generated until after the
form is submitted and the record is inserted and the user is
already redirected to the next page. So here’s what
I’ve done.
1. On the form page, generate a random name. The only way I
know of is to use the server object to generate a temporary file
name with the GetTempName method.
BTW: I think this bastardizes the purpose of the GetTempName
method. If anybody has a “proper” way to generate a
random value, please add your ideas.
2. Assign that random value to a session variable.
3. Assign the same session variable to a hidden field on the
form. It will be inserted into a field in the database to a field
called “randomtemp” or something like that.
4. Let Dreamweaver create the code to submit the form and
insert the record into the database and redirect to the second
page.
5. On the second page, pull up the record using the random
value session variable from the previous page.
Here’s the code and explanation.
RANDOM NAME ON FORM PAGE
<%
' create a random session variable
DIM objRandomName
Set objRandomName =
Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Session("sesRandomName") = Replace(CStr(Date),"/","") &
mid(objRandomName.GetTempName, 4, 4)
Session("sesRandomName") = Session("sesRandomName") &
"ID" & (rsUserInfo.Fields.Item("id").Value)
Set objRandomName = Nothing
%>
The explanation:
I generate today’s date, take out the “/”
and add to that the temp name generated by the server object
GetTempName method. BUT, the tempname has a period and crap, so I
trim off the front and back and use the inside 4 characters. For
good measure I add the user ID (a user is logged in at this point,
so I have that info. You can remove that line if you don’t
have a user.)
Today’s date is included just to safeguard against a
4-digit random value repeating. If it repeats, it probably
won’t be on the same date.
Anyway, that generates a random value and assigns it to a
session variable.
ASSIGN THE RANDOM VALUE TO A HIDDEN FIELD ON THE FORM
<input name="hiddenField" type="hidden"
value="<%=Session("sesRandomName") %>" />
Include the hidden field in the Insert Record Server Behavior
in Dreamweaver. Insert the value into a field called
“randomtemp” (or whatever you like). Let Dreamweaver
redirect to the next page.
OPEN RECORD ON THE NEXT PAGE
On the next page, create a record set that selects the record
with the field “randomtemp” equal to
Session("sesRandomName"). Get the ID from the record set.
ANOTHER VARIATION
Run the GetTempName method twice, trimming it both times to
generate an 8-digit value.
Session("sesRandomName") = mid(objRandomName.GetTempName, 4,
4) & mid(objRandomName.GetTempName, 4, 4)
THAT'S IT
I hope that helps. It's a little convoluted assigning the
session variable a random value (and I'd love to know an "official"
way), but it works.
Good luck.

Question about finding whether a reference number is NOT in the database?

Hello,
I use the following code to test whether the reference number is in the database
<ul><li>CURSOR cur_yellow</li></ul>
<ul><li>IS SELECT</li></ul>
<ul><li>REFERENCE_NO,</li></ul>
<ul><li>COMPANY_NAME</li></ul>
<ul><li>FROM CONSULTANTS;</li></ul>
<ul><li>rec_yellow cur_yellow%ROWTYPE;</li></ul>
<ul><li>BEGIN</li></ul>
<ul><li> OPEN cur_yellow;</li></ul>
<ul><li> LOOP</li></ul>
<ul><li> FETCH cur_yellow INTO rec_yellow;</li></ul>
<ul><li> EXIT WHEN cur_yellow%NOTFOUND;</li></ul>
<ul><li> IF ref_no = rec_yellow.REFERENCE_NO</li></ul>
<ul><li> THEN</li></ul>
HTP.print ('<ul><li><span class="style5">The information concerning the consultant selected has been deleted from the database.</span></li></ul>');
<ul><li> exp := 1; -- used to make code bullet proof</li></ul>
<ul><li> END IF;</li></ul>
<ul><li> END LOOP;</li></ul>
<ul><li> CLOSE cur_yellow;</li></ul>
Do you have any ideas for how to write code to test whether the reference number is NOT in the database.
Thanks
Doug

Hallo,
in general, yes, but I think , it will be better without cursor:
declare
v_dummy number;
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'select 1 from dual where
exists (select 1 from user_indexes where index_name = : ind_name) USING ''DOUGLASMYINDEX'
INTO v_1;
-- something
EXCEPTION
WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND
THEN
NULL;
END;
Is it necessary to perform it in dynamic SQL ?
declare
v_dummy number;
BEGIN
select 1 into v_1 from dual where
exists (select 1 from user_indexes where index_name = ''DOUGLASMYINDEX''')
INTO v_1;
-- something
EXCEPTION
WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND
THEN
NULL;
END;

Error in generating reference number of process

Hi All Masters,
I'm new in HCM P&F.
Currently I have a problem. I was running a sample process or copied process from the sample. Clicking 'check and send'. Still OK.
But when I clicked 'Send' button, I got an error message displayed 'Error in generating reference number of process'
Would you please help me what's wrong with that? FYI, I've tried to activate Case Management, but maybe, there is still any loss in that area?
Thank you for your help
Regards,
Pradita Herdiansyah

Hi Otto,
Neither did I. I don't have any complete resources. Maybe actually there are exists somewhere, but just I don't find it yet.
I try to learn and doing that by watching this forum and sap help/doc, just maybe there are other people who have same obstacles with me in developing this and then I will get solutions for it.
Have a nice day...

Goods Receipt done with reference to PO when you post material document in MIGO (GR,GI etc) a tab named "Purchase Order History" created automatically in Item detail level of Purchase order ME23N. so you can get the Original GR Reference number from PO History tab when you display that reference PO

External Reference number not copied in Service Confirmation

Hi,
We are on CRM 5.0 SP11. We have Mobile Service 5.0 SP11.
In Mobile Service in the Service Order creation screen we have a window to input External reference number. When we create a Service Confirmation as a followup document of Service Order, SAP by default only allows to copy Reference Object,Subject and notes (both header and item level) to the Confirmation.
Does anyone have idea how we can copy the External Reference number to Confirmation when we do followup to Service Orders on mobile.
This functionality works fine on Enterprise.
Thanks,
Yatin

Hello,
             The external number won't be copied by standard as Wolhfard said they are different documents.
You need to code this to make this copy from service order to Service confirmation.
Open your Mobile Application Studio and make following changes.
Open the BusinessObject "BOMSVHelper" and view the code. Go to the Method "CopySrvTransHeader" write the following code in it.
Find the code
UserName = _unwind(BusinessRootObject.UserDataDictionary.GetData("USERNAME"))
and paste the following code below it.
        Dim servconfobj As BusinessObject = bocopysrvtrans.SalesInfo
        Dim servtransobj As BusinessObject = orderheaderobj.SalesInfo
        servconfobj.SetAttribute("PoNumberSold", servtransobj.GetAttribute("PoNumberSold"))
        servconfobj.SetAttribute("PoDateSold", servtransobj.GetAttribute("PoDateSold"))

What to do if you lost apple claim reference number for downloading Mountain Lion

Okay, So I just registered my Macbook pro for Apple's Up-to-date program that lets you upgrade to mountain lion if you bought a Mac starting june 11.. So i registered my macbook pro and i forgot to copy the Claim reference number that they give you.. What do you all suggest i do?

Been waiting 6 hours now, still no email after submitting the form for my retina MBP. You'd think at least the MBP with retina would be a quick confirmation, since they didn't exist before the eligibility period for getting a free Mountain Lion update....
Getting rather frustrated here. I took today off to deal with the upgrade and potential clean install so I'd have it up and running before returning to work tomorrow. And I've had absolutely NOTHING from apple yet...

Where do i find the reference number for my preorder? and yes i no this is prob a dumb question but i cant find it anywhere......

Hi droidboy52999,
Your email won't have the same confirmation number as it was ordered over the phone. You will need the last name used for the order, the location code (this ends in 01) and an order number (five to six digit number). Please keep us posted if you need further assistance with this.

Populate header text with reference number and vendor name

Hi Experts,
My client wants to populate the line item text field - SGTXT in MIRO / FB60 with the reference number field XBLNR and the vendor name.
Is it possible to do it before the invoice get posted?. Like, just after the user entered the vendor account number and the reference number in FB60 system picks the vendor name against the vendor number from LFA1 table and the reference number entered in FB60 screen and populates them in text field ?
Similarly in MIRO - before the invoice get posted is it possible to pick the reference number from MIRO screen and pick the vendor name based on the PO number entered on the MIRO screen.
Please advise how to do this.
Thank you
Shino

Hi
This can be achieved by using a User Exit in Substitution rule. This is done through GGB1. Define the rule

Hi,
Thanks .
After applying that note it has now updated the clearing document with reference number from its original document. But I want the reference document to flow/updated into the F110 screen -> DME attributes->refrence number. The table it has to get updated is REGUT-RENUM.
I am not sure if this has to happen as a SAP standard functionality but this is the requirement given to me.
