User defined attributes for use with personalization

Hello,
I have a stand alone region that works correctly and is able to be added to seeded pages via personalization. I would like to allow the personalization to define the value of a user defined attribute when the personalization is added to the page. However I do not see any user defined attributes in the list when I add the region via personalization.
Has anyone ever done this before?

If you are not drawing this in an JEditorPane, but just with DrawText, you will have to split the text up your self, draw the first half, then switch colors, then draw the second half.

Creating new Attributes for use with AttributedStrings

I trying to find a way to change the color of key strings in a phrase so that they stand out. For example.
the String (The water is HOT). I want the word HOT to be the color RED.
I have noticed in using the TextAttributes option on the AttributedString doesn't have an option to change a color for a particular word in a String only a way to swap the foreground and background colors. In general is there a way to add new attributes for doing the above example?
Just a note. This modification is not being done in an editor pane or text field. I'm looking for a way to do this without user interaction.

User defined attributes - usages

Hi,
I would like to hear how other OA developers have used user defined attributes for an item, if they have used it. I would appreciate if you could share that information.
As for me, I used it for items (messagetextinput, choice etc) in my custom search region to assign attribute names to these items to know what the values given by the user should be associated with and searched for. I had to create a custom search region since query region from oaf didn't allow to associate more than on VO to it.
I just want to see what other purposes others have used the user defined attributes to get a better understanding of it.
Thank you,
Arun

User Defined Attributes in Tree List

Does anyone know what the User Defined Attributes is used for in the tree list (when in Create / Edit List Entry screen)?
I'm trying to put a title tag on my list entries so I get a tooltip when hovering the mouse over each entry and thought this might be the way to do it.
If not then User Defined Attributes sounds like it could be useful anyway but I can't find any documentation on what it does.

V-41 tcode error :Table 304 is not defined for use with condition type PR00

Hi All,
I am trying to create a BDC using the transaction V-41.
The first screen has fields:
ConditionType and Table, where I have to fill values ZPM1 and 800 respectively.
But as soon as I enter the tcode v-41 and say enter, the above mentioned fields are already having the values 'PR00' and ' 304'. Normally if you take an example fo t-code VA02, all fields are blank.
Then an error message is displayed:
Table 304 is not defined for use with condition type PR00
This behaviour is not allowing me to use the BDC feature.
Please advise me on why this is happening. What are the possible solutions I can use to clear these values programmatically?
Can anything be done via customizing?
Regards,
Namita.

Dear ILHAN ,
Well the problem you are facing is having the following solution:
Table 304 is not defined for use with condition type PR00
Message no. VK024
Diagnosis
The selected condition type does not fit in the condition table, that is the basis for the condition record. Alternatively the selected condition type is not included in the condition types that were selected on the selection screen or that are defined in the variant of the standard selection report.
Procedure
Úse F4 help to choose a valid condition type.
If this does not give you the required condition type, check in Customizing for condition types and the related access sequences.
In the condition maintenance also check Customizing for the selection report (pricing report), that you have selected in the navigation tree, using the standard condition table as a reference.
I hope this helps.
It has worked for me.
I gave it a try and what I am getting using the transaction V-41 is create Price condition (PR00) : Fast Entry.
Please award points if you find it useful.
Regards,
Rakesh

User's default email address for use with Answers

How to use user's default email address for use with Answers?
When I was referring to the Admin Guide I found the below description for email session variable.
Can somebody please help me with this.
Contains the user's default email address for use with Answers. If the delivery option of Answers is enabled, an email device using this address will be created for the user upon first log in. Users can override this address by changing their account settings in Oracle BI Presentation Services.
Thanks,
Swetha

I think the documentation is wrongly saying that it will be used by Answers. The email will be used by Delivers, the BI Scheduler component.

User Defined Attributes

Hi All,
I wanted few information on User defined attributes in Projects. It would be of great help if I get few suggestions.
I wanted to add few fields to the Update task progress screen. How can I add these field as there is no specific page layout exist for this page. Do I need to use OA Framework to achieve the same? If Yes, how can we modify these seeded pages?
Please guide me.
Thanks in Advance,
Srini.

UDA can be added to project/task/classification. We can not modify the Update Task Progress form using UDA. If the changes are minimal then you can go for personalization or modify the sources as per OAF standards.

Limitations of User Defined attributes in USR.

11.1.1.3
I added a notes field to the user defined fields of a user, customer wanted a textarea to makes notes in reagarding the user in question.
Can someone tell me where the limitations of these fields are listed?
I added a large textfield and the system happily accepted the size and made a clob in the db.
I have added the permissions in the policy to make it visible in create as well as in view and modify, all that works fine.
However, when I modify the field by simply writing a small note in it....
I save the change, no exceptions, no error whatsoever
the correct data gets into the clob field in the USR table
but the text area in the user view show the entity object name and reference/instance instead...
i.e.
i add the text "test" into the text area, press save
the fields then shows me...
weblogic.jdbc.wrapper.Clob_oracle_sql_CLOB@65e1
So, I am looking for where this limitation is mentioned in the manuals or trying to find out if its a bug.
Reason I am wondering is because there is a field (USR.USR_NOTE) in the DB which is a CLOB but I cant
find any reference to that in the User Configuration, i.e. what does the system use it for?
So, if there is a limitation on the size of fields in the User Configuration, where can I see them?
I looked in the System and developer manuals and I see nothing on that there.
What is the maximum and where can I see that defined?

Hi,
I dont know the solution for this, but heres a work arround
//create new label some where else in the excel sheet as shown below
Label lblcmbdata;
for(int i=0; i<1000; i++)
             lblcmbdata = new Label(75, i, (i+1)+" satish", format);
             sheet1.addCell(lblcmbdata);
}//set the validation range as shown below
writableCellFeature.setDataValidationRange(75,0,75,1000);
Label cmb = null;
cmb = new Label(0, 1, "Select",format);
cmb.setCellFeatures(writableCellFeature);
sheet.addCell(cmb);this will create a combo list with 1000 values
also you can keep the data to be populated in the different sheet in same workbook by creating a named range as below
workbook.addNameArea("cmbdata", sheet1, 0, 0, 0, 1000);
// then fill the data in sheet1
Label lblcmbdata;
for(int i=0; i<1000; i++)
                lblcmbdata = new Label(0, i, (i+1)+" satish", format);
                sheet1.addCell(lblcmbdata);
//set the validation named range as below
writableCellFeature.setDataValidationRange("cmbdata");
Label cmb = null;
cmb = new Label(0, 1, "Select",format);
cmb.setCellFeatures(writableCellFeature);
sheet.addCell(cmb);Thanks and Regards

Please let me know how to retrieve all of user defined attribute values in prepopulate adapter for a request dataset.

Use below code to get all attributes in user profile including UDF.

User user = null;
          UserManager usrService = null;
objOimInternalClient = new OIMInternalClient();
          if (objOimInternalClient != null) {
                    try {
                         objOimInternalClient.loginAsAdmin();
                         usrService = objOimInternalClient
                                   .getService(UserManager.class);
                         user = usrService.getDetails("usr_key", strUserKey, null);
                         endDate = (Date) user.getAttribute("End Date");
                    } catch (Exception e) {
                         e.printStackTrace();
                    } finally {
                         if (objOimInternalClient != null)
                              objOimInternalClient.logout();
                         if (user != null)
                              user = null;
                         if (usrService != null)
                              usrService = null;
In order to see all UDF's in User profile, please create Authorization Policy.

LDAP search cannot find entry by user "defined attribute" or "sounds like

Hi, I have an JSP program that searches an LDAP Sun One Directory Server.
All of my search filters ( by givenname,sn,mail and phone #) work fine with the search base set at the very top (root ) of my DIT tree.
However with the same search base, searching by an "User Defined Attribute" fails to return anything (and note that my search filter includes the objectclass that goes with this user defined attribute)?
Yet, if I change the search base so it points all the way down the DIT tree (maybe near RDN?), the "User Defined Attribute" search works fine ?
Additionally, "sounds like" search filter (givenname~=) fails to find anything at
the upper root search base of DIT. If I change the search base to point down in the DIT tree as I did above, the "sounds like" filter will work?
I've tried everything I know?

Problem creating user-defined metric for Database

I am logged in to EM/Grid Control as SYSMAN, any user with superadmin privileges or a 'normal' user with operator/full privileges for my database target. When I go to set up user-defined metrics for the target db I get the following warning "You will only be able to view User Defined metrics because you do not have Operator Privileges on host <db target name>". The Create button is disabled.
Can anyone offer any advise on where to identify the privilege problem?
Thanks

Well I did it with a host UDM calling a local script (which will be installed on shared drives for the development/test and production systems).
The local script cats the /var/opt/oracle/oratab file eliminating lines beginning with # or $ then takes the second argument of each line and loops through all entries using a checkit procedure. The checkit procedure determines if the appropriate log directores exist for the oracle home and does a find on the diretory looking for alert*.log and *.trc. If there are any then global variables get updated with the count and directory name.
There is an if statement before exit that checks of the count of files is greater than zero and write an appropriate em_result and em_message depending on the results.
I then created the UDM in EM to call this script and check for critical/warning thresholds.

User-defined fields for WBS

Hi,
Std SAP provides the following user-defined fields for WBS.
4 numeric fields
4 general fields
2 date fields
2 check boxes
We would like to use as many as 20 numeric user-defined fields for wbs.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks in advance.
Manohar

hi,
It is not possible with user defined fields. You can achieve this using SPRO menu path Project System ->Structures->Work Breakdown Structure->Enhancement for Project Definition WBS lements -> Create customer specific fields in WBS.
You have to use enhancement CNEX0007 to create the required fields.
You will, ofcourse, need the help of an ABAPer to do this.
