Unused Parameter needs to be Used

Hi all,
I've been asked to migrate a report from Production into our Test environment. Once I've got the report migrated however, I can't alter the Dynamic Data Connection parameter in the CMC. It exists in the report and can be displayed by selecting "Show unused parameters" but I can't change its value. Our test environment is set up so that we are required to select the data connection using the DDC parameter.
Does anyone know of a setting that allows a Dynamic Data Connection parameter to be set as used or unused? Or, has anybody been in the same situation and found a fix? If so I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance and happy holidays!
Geoffrey

Hi Stratos,
Thanks for your reply and my apologies for the delayed response.
The versions I'm working with are:
- BusinessObjects Enterprise XI R2 (11.5.8.826)
- Crystal Reports XI (11.0.0.2381)
I've checked the permissions in BVM for both our test and production environments using the "Edit rights..." command. All rights are listed as inherited for both Administrator and Everyone. I realize this is probably not very helpful.
For an indication of the functionality I can obtain in BVM; in the past I have created and edited all types of business objects (Data Connection, Dynamic Data Connection, Data Foundation, Business Element, and Business View) and have used these objects successfully through CR and BO.
Through CMC I found the following permissions for the non-administrator account that I have access to:
Add objects to the folder (Granted)
View objects (Granted)
Edit objects (Denied)
Modify the rights users have to objects (Granted)
Delete objects (Denied)
Change user password (Granted)
Copy objects to another folder (Granted)
Schedule to destinations (Granted)
Securely modify rights users have to objects. (Granted)
Schedule on behalf of other users (Granted)
All other permissions are Denied.
I attempted to view the note that you indicated in your other message, but I lack the required credentials.
Thanks again for your help, it is greatly appreciated.
Geoffrey.

Need help in using FM BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA

Gurus,
I need help in using the FM BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA. The FM is returning a message that says "The field MARA-MEINS/BAPI_MARA-BASE_UOM(_ISO) is defined as a required field; it does not contain an entry".
I have supplied the necessary details and yet the FM won't push through.
If possible, please post sample codes.

In Drill through report pass hyperlink value as parameter to another report using ssrs 2008 R2

Hi All,
I have one drill through SSRS report in which if I click one hyperlink in the summmary report it should be passed as parameter for detail report, like this....
Summary:
AccountType
A1
A2
If I click A1 then that should be passed as parameter to detail report and display A1 data in detail report
If I click A2 then that should be passed as parameter to detail report and display A2 data in detail report.
Please give me some ideas or expression code to achieve this in using SSRS 2008R2. Its very urgent.
Thanks,
RH
sql

Thanks the folowing is my source data for the parameter I am including to the drill through
SELECT DISTINCT
case
when EA_STATUS in ('E4', 'U4', 'P5', '02', '03', '04','B2','B3','B4','12')
then CAST('Project' AS VARCHAR(15))
else CAST('Non-Project' AS VARCHAR(15))
end as EA_PROJECT_GROUP_DESC
FROM TEAMS.FMPROD_V_EA
As you can see it has only 2 values.So how do you suggest I wirte the expression to include in the report.
The name of the parameter I will be using is EAProjectGroup.but below is the error I am getting trying to run the report
rsMissingFieldInDataSet] The dataset Trends contains a definition for the Field EA_PROJECT_GROUP_DESC. This field is missing from the returned result set from the data source.
[rsErrorReadingDataSetField] The dataset Trends contains a definition for the Field EA_PROJECT_GROUP_DESC. The data extension returned an error during reading the field. There is no data for the field at position 45.
Preview complete -- 0 errors, 72 warnings
what does the position 45 mean?

Target parameter is not being used

Hello,
while activating the transformation, i get an error saying" Target parameter 0058 is not being used". I have checked all the rules, infoObjects etc. but still im not able to activate the transformation at all.
Eventhough the source field-target field mapping is correct, the system is throwing such errors. What could be the possible cause of it. Any idea?
Regards Sucheta

Hello Sarvanan,
What do you mean by "the respective field not having the Unit/Curr Objects"..?..some of them are of the type "number" whereas others are CHARS.
Everytime when i add some field i cannot re-create the whole transformation. There has to be some inconsistency as my mapping of source-target field is correct. I have also raised this to OSS but as usual they are taking thier own sweet time to reply.
Surprisingly the transformation got activated yesterday and the dataload too was successful. Today again the same ols problem of "parameter is not being used"..!!
still could you pls throw some light on Unit/Currency objects that u mentioned..??
Thanks in adv.

Asynchronous, but need Ack without using BPM and IDocs.

Hi Experts,
                 I would like to do a scenario i.e., "Asynchronous communication, but need Acknowledgement without using BPM and also without using IDocs whether it is sender side or receiver side". Please help me.
Thanks in advance
Srihari.

Without using BPM will be little longer process. But the alternative way is to add one more receiver in the receiver determination and send some file to that location with the actual mapping getting executed for the actual receiver. and in the second interface you can get the file created at second receiver back to the source location. But this will be little long as compared to synchronous scenarios.
Flow:
Source
          Receiver 1--> Actual mapping as per requirement
          Receiver 2(For Ack)--> Create a mapping with blank file sent to Receiver
Receiver 2-->File Adapter--> Source through 2nd mapping/interface and keep the File adapter pooling interval around 5 sec or less so that you can get the file back to source location.

Anand

How to change the parameter 'Default Servers To Use For Viewing And Modification' using java api dynamically.

Hi,
I need to change the Crystal Reports setting 'Default Servers To Use For Viewing And Modification' to a particular server.this i need to do using java api.
could you pls provide me the sample code for this.
Regards
Srinivas

The IReport interface extends IViewingServerGroupInfo interface, that allows you to specify the server group.
The choice selection for that interface is as follows: 0 = first available, 1 = prefer the selected server group, and 2 = only use the selected server group.
The server group selection is by the SI_ID for that server group InfoObject.

What type of mac do i need for home use to watch and edit videos

What type / power of MAC do i need for home use to watch and edit vedeos as well as basic computer work?

Any of the new Macs for home - iMac or MacBook Pro are even fine. You don't need a 65lb workstation tower. If you want a tower for how well and long they hold up, and can be upgraded, that is another matter and fine and might be overkill at first.
Even the base Mac Pro will get you there.

How to transfer range parameter from vb when using bapi calling

Hi,everyone.how to transfer range parameter from vb when using BAPI calling?

Did you get the solution to your problem? Can you please share it with me. I have a similar problem. I have a VB program that calls RFC function. It works with a single parameter but not with a range of parameters. If you have the solution, could you please share sample codes with me? Thank you so much.

I want to transcribe one audio file of a lecture into text. I don't have a need for extended use so can anyone recommend how to do this free? Thanks

Mike,
I was successful, in a test I just conducted, to get Siri to record your problem statement in a Note file on the iPod as I used the Edit > Speech feature in Safari to play the text. I don't see why dictation wouldn't work as well. Why not give it a try?
If you don't have an iOS device to try this with, you could write your audio file to a CD and use an external player to get audio to the Mac.
