Use of loop node  in smartforms

Hi ,
Can anyone explain me in detail what is the  use of the loop node in smartforms.
I want to repeat the two successor nodes alone until the loop ends .after the loop ends then only the third successor node should be executed.can we do this by using loop node. If yes please explain me how we can do this.
Thanks,
Rose.

Hi,
    Yes, this is possible. Include the two nodes in the loop of the internal table. The third node should be outside the loop
Regards.

  • Repeating nodes using FOR loop but when concating XML string then concating only last iteration of FOr loop ??

    I stuck with a problem that I am using FOR loop for generating repeating nodes. 
    Now when I concat the generated node in the main node then I got only last iteration of that FOR loop.
    can anybody suggest me a way to handle this error....
    FOR i IN 1..pl_phone_tab.Count
    LOOP
    SELECT xmlelement("Phone"     
                                        ,xmlelement("PHONETYPE",xmlattributes('01' AS "dmnADRP_PHONETYPE"),pl_phone_tab(i).p_phtype_tab)
                         ,xmlelement("PHONENUM",pl_phone_tab(i).p_phnum_tab)

    SELECT xmlelement("PhoneInfo"
                           ,xmlconcat(p_phone_xml))
    INTO p_phone_info_xml
    FROM dual;
    here I am getting only one node but there has to be two nodes for PHONE node

    Not that I'm encouraging you but here are two standalone examples explaining how to do what you want :
    1) Loop through the input collection and append each node to its target container :
    SQL> declare
      2

      6    emp_info_xml  xmltype;
      7    emp_xml       xmltype;
      8 
      9  begin

  • Create section node in smartforms

    Hi,
    How to create section node in smartforms.
    It is very urgent pls guide me.
    Thanks in advance.
    Ramakrishnaiah Y

    Hello there,
    The complex section unites the attributes of different nodes. Before the new node types for tables, templates, and loops were introduced, you used complex sections to deal with these contructions.
    Older forms still use this node; but for new forms you should prefer the new node types.
    SAP Strongly recommends to use Folder, Template, Table, and Loop instead of complex section. We dont even have the option of creating section in ECC 6.

  • Building Tree hierarchy Using nested loops and class cl_gui_column_tree

    Hello gurus,
    I want to create a tree report using custom container and class cl_gui_column_tree. I have read and understood the standard demo report which SAP has provided i.e. SAPCOLUMN_TREE_CONTROL_DEMO. But in this report all the levels nodes are created as constants and hardcoded. I want to create hierarchy using nested loops. For this i took one example of a hierarchy of VBAK-VBELN->VBAP-POSNR Like One sales order has many line items and each line item can have number of line items in billing plan.
    I have done some coding for it.
    FORM build_tree USING node_table TYPE treev_ntab
                                           item_table TYPE zitem_table.              " i created the zitem_table table type of mtreeitm in SE11.
      DATA: node TYPE treev_node,
                 item TYPE mtreeitm.
      node-node_key = root.
      CLEAR node-relatkey.
      CLEAR node-relatship.
      node-hidden = ' '.
      node-disabled = ' '.
      CLEAR node-n_image.
      CLEAR node-exp_image.
      node-isfolder = 'X'.
      node-expander = 'X'.
      APPEND node TO node_table.
      item-node_key = root.
      item-item_name = colm1.
      item-class = cl_gui_column_tree=>item_class_text.
      item-text = 'Root'.
      APPEND item TO item_table.
      item-node_key = root.
      item-item_name = colm2.
      item-class = cl_gui_column_tree=>item_class_text.
      item-text = 'Amount'.
      APPEND item TO item_table.
      LOOP AT it_vbeln INTO wa_vbeln.
        node-node_key = wa_vbeln-vbeln.
        node-relatkey = root.
        node-relatship = cl_gui_column_tree=>relat_last_child.
        node-hidden = ' '.
        node-disabled = ' '.
        CLEAR node-n_image.
        CLEAR node-exp_image.
        node-isfolder = 'X'.
        node-expander = 'X'.
        APPEND node TO node_table.
        item-node_key = wa_vbeln-vbeln.
        item-item_name = colm1.
        item-class = cl_gui_column_tree=>item_class_text.
        item-text = wa_vbeln-vbeln.
        APPEND item TO item_table.
        item-node_key = wa_vbeln-vbeln.
        item-item_name = colm2.
        item-class = cl_gui_column_tree=>item_class_text.
        item-text = wa_vbeln-netwr.
        APPEND item TO item_table.
        LOOP AT it_posnr INTO wa_posnr.
        node-node_key = wa_posnr-posnr.
        node-relatkey = wa_vbeln-vbeln.
        node-relatship = cl_gui_column_tree=>relat_last_child.
        node-hidden = ' '.
        node-disabled = ' '.
        CLEAR node-n_image.
        CLEAR node-exp_image.
        node-isfolder = ' '.
        node-expander = ' '.
        APPEND node TO node_table.
        item-node_key = wa_posnr-posnr.
        item-item_name = colm1.
        item-class = cl_gui_column_tree=>item_class_text.
        item-text = wa_posnr-posnr.
        APPEND item TO item_table.
        item-node_key = wa_posnr-posnr.
        item-item_name = colm2.
        item-class = cl_gui_column_tree=>item_class_text.
        item-text = wa_posnr-netpr.
        APPEND item TO item_table.
        ENDLOOP.
      ENDLOOP.
    ENDFORM.
    Now this program compiles fine and runs till there is only one level. That is root->vbeln. But when i add one more loop of it_posnr it gives me runtime error of message type 'X'. The problem i found was uniqueness of item-item_name as all the sales order have posnr = 0010. What could be done? I tried giving item_name unique hierarchy level using counters just like stufe field in prps eg. 10.10.10, 10.10.20,10.20.10,10.20.20,20.10.10 etc.. etc.. but still i am getting runtime error when i add one more hierarchy using nested loop. Plz guide.
    Edited by: Yayati6260 on Jul 14, 2011 7:25 AM

    Hello all,
    Thanks the issue is solved. The node key was not getting a unique identification as nodekey. I resolved the issue by generating unique identification for each level. Thanks all,

  • The use of  folder  option in Smartforms ?

    Hi ,
    What is theuse of  folder  option in Smartforms ?
    Thanks in advance
    RK

    You use this node to combine inferior nodes to logical groups
    The more extensive a form, the less clear the node hierarchy in the tree structure. To avoid this, you can combine related nodes under a folder node. When displaying tables, you can use the folder node to protect multiple table lines against automatic page break (see: Page Protection for Tables).
    Nodes assigned to cells of a template can be identified more easily in the tree structure if there is a folder for each line or column.
    Depending on the length of time by which the last date for payment has been exceeded, each dunning letter should start with a different introduction. Create a text node containing the relevant dunning letter for each dunning level and specify conditions to print only one of the nodes. In this case, it is a good idea to group the different text nodes together in a folder.
    Procedure
    Create a node of type Folder in the navigation tree of the Form Builder.
    Enter a unique name for the node and a description (for example, cells of the third line).
    To assign other nodes to the folder, use Drag&Drop to put them in the folder node or insert new nodes as subnodes.
    On the Events tab, you can activate a header and a footer area. For more information, see Printing Tables.

  • Debug a particular node of SMARTFORM

    Hai Fellas,
    How to debug a particular node of Smartforms.
    I dont want to debug it from the begining.
    There is a restiction I can't add anything as the code is in Quality server.
    i.e no break points can be hardcoded using program line.
    Best Regards,
    Suvendu.

    Hi,
    Just for debugging you cant write break-point statement and u cant transport,the best practice is go to smartforms ,there will be a option find the function module.Go to Se37 give the function module name,go to display mode,search for ur field or internal table or a work area,keep the break-point ,and then run the smart form ,this is way that we can debug in quality and production systems
    Thanks

  • File Node in Smartforms

    Hello,
    While doing page protection for several lines it is mentioned to create a file node. Could anyone tell me what is meant by a file node in smartforms?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Folder node is what used to apply page protection for a definite number of lines in smartforms.

  • Sir i am using datasocket read ,i am communicating with java but my problem is that bcz im using while loop to see if value has changed my labview consumes all the processors time ,sir i want a event like thing so that while loop is not in continuous loop

    sir i have given lot of effort but i am not able to solve my problem either with notifiers or with occurence fn,probably i do not know how to use these synchronisation tools.

    sir i am using datasocket read ,i am communicating with java but my problem is that bcz im using while loop to see if value has changed my labview consumes all the processors time ,sir i want a event like thing so that while loop is not in continuous loopHi Sam,
    I want to pass along a couple of tips that will get you more and better response on this list.
    1) There is an un-written rule that says more "stars" is better than just one star. Giving a one star rating will probably eliminate that responder from individuals that are willing to anser your question.
    2) If someone gives you an answer that meets your needs, reply to that answer and say that it worked.
    3) If someone suggests that you look at an example, DO IT! LV comes with a wonderful set of examples that demonstate almost all of the core functionality of LV. Familiarity with all of the LV examples will get you through about 80% of the Certified LabVIEW Developer exam.
    4) If you have a question first search the examples for something tha
    t may help you. If you can not find an example that is exactly what you want, find one that is close and post a question along the lines of "I want to do something similar to example X, how can I modify it to do Y".
    5) Some of the greatest LabVIEW minds offer there services and advice for free on this exchange. If you treat them good, they can get you through almost every challenge that can be encountered in LV.
    6) If English is not your native language, post your question in the language you favor. There is probably someone around that can help. "We're big, we're bad, we're international!"
    Trying to help,

  • Does anyone use MIDI loops in Logic Pro to compose music?

    Seriously, if anyone out there uses the MIDI loops to compose music in Logic, how the heck do you do it? Especially if you are also using audio loops, it seems almost impossible to me. The chord transpositions that you get from the chord track are not even to the right pitch, and the transposition behavior is different according to whether you drag the loops into the arrange area before or after putting the changes in the Chord track. The signature track is no better, as it doesn't seem to affect audio loops. So how do you get the bass loops etc. to play in the keys you want them to without going through extraordinary contortions? I looked at one of the Logic Pro books, and it said to transpose by using the transpose function in the inspector, but that only lets you transpose by octaves! Do you really go in and edit the loops by hand to transpose each note?
    Any pointers on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Put the mouse pointer on top of the transpose number, which is zero, hold down the left mouse button and drag up or down to transpose by steps. At the beginning of either the getting started or Logic manual there's an explanation of the different types of mouse/key behavior, if you're not used to using Logic it's a good idea to go over these.
    Also, Logic does not always use simplified Mac conventions (thank the stars for that), as a result you have a lot more variety of data input, it varies according to the task at hand.

  • GB won't open- This is what I get... Path does not exist: /Library/Audio/Apple Loops Index  st: /Library/Audio/Apple Loops Index w/out this directory you cannot use the Loop Browser

    Path does not exist: /Library/Audio/Apple Loops Index  st: /Library/Audio/Apple Loops Index w/out this directory you cannot use the Loop Browser.  Then I get this message...
    Instrument Library Invalid
    GarageBand Ecpects a valid instrument foledr in /Libraty/Application Support/GarageBand
    Please choose a valid instrument Library folder or quit and re-install GB
    Any solutions?

    Is this a new installation of GarageBand or has it worked before on the same computer?
    Or have you transferrred your GarageBand from a different computer?
    The error message is saying, that your GarageBand installation is incomplete. There are essential foldrs missing in your system library. 
    Check, if indeed both folders are missing or if only the permissions are set incorrectly.
    Your system library (the folder "System" directly on your system drive) should have the following folders inside the folder "Audio", and they need to be readable by the system and by administrators.
    And in the folder /Library/Application Support there should be the Instrument Library.
    If these folders do not exist (or no longer exist), restore them from your backup-  If your GarageBand version is a new installation, the application may not hve been downloaded or installed completely, then reinstall GarageBand.
    What is your GarageBAnd version, and how did you install it originally?

  • Can I use a formula node to start the execution of a case structure?

    Hi,
    I am working on editing a VI to make it much easier to understand (for colleagues and non LV users). For one reason or another, the VI's creators did not fully make use of the power of case structures and other structure types. In the application we need it for, the instrument cycles and repeats measurements on several objects. We are interested in measuring the motor currents for several motors in the system. As it stands now, for each sample object's run, there is a separate sub-vi diagram which displays its waveform trace and several indicators such as max current, time at max, etc. That code was contained within a T/F case structure and copied and pasted 20 plus times.... Obviously the vi became extrememly cluttered and needed a huge screen to see. The trigger for the current case structures is an EQUALS comparison between one input (which is the sample object counter; and this part I will likely leave unchanged since it makes a lot of sense already) and a constant which was defined 1 through 20+ for case. 
    I have since made one case structure and 20+ instances of that case and have labeled them (at the top selection box near the detent arrows) "1", "2", 3, etc. I am wondering if I can use a formula node to act as the "trigger" which sets each case structure running? I believe that a simple IF statement should work. Please see a snippet of my attempt at making this in C below.
    For the node, I defined X as the input and Y as the output. The input to the node, X, is connected to the sample object counter. The output, Y, is connected to the case selector of the case structure. My attempt at the code is below:
    int32 y
    For(x == 1)
       y = "1";
     For(x == 2)
       y = "2";
    etc, etc.
    Is that above code snippet correct? Do i need something like "ENDIF" or "end if" at the end? Does "y" have to be defined as "int32" or can it be something else?
    Thanks for the help!

    Is your formula node doing anything else besides what is shown?
    Why don't you just wire the value that is going into it at X directly into the selector of the case structure?

    I want Potrait format in the 1st page and Lanscape format in 2nd page is it possible if so plz suggest me an idea

    Hi,
    It is possible in smart forms, but not in scripts.
    we can have 3 tabbed options for pages in smart forms.
    <b>General...
