User Defined Field as a Link

Hi All.
I have an issue I need clearing up with.
We have created a user defined field in the Item Master data..
This field is a link to an image.
the location/path is different from the default image folder specified under the genreal settings window.
The picture does not appear when you click on the link in the user defined field, we have discovered that the folder give a permission denied message when trying to access it over the network.
Could this be the reason the picture does not show?
Thanks
Jerusha

You should have Full Permissions to the 'B1_SHR' folder in your Server, so that this problem will not occur.

User defined field:item master

Hi,
In item master data, I want to create a user defined field which is linked to an external table wherein the end-user can automatically upload new item master details into the sap appl frm an external table.

Dear Ayesha,
As far as I understand, what you would like to do is the following :
1. A user adds some data into an external table.
2. The user defined Field in SAP B1 is automatically updated with the data in the external table.
If you would like to achieve the above, then I would suggest you to use one of the following methods :
1. DTW to import the tables' content.
2. Import/export option from Excel
3. or an Addon created via the SDK.
If I understood the issue incorrectly, please let me know.

Linking a User Defined Field in Items table

How to Link a User Defined Field in 'Item Master Data' table, to my own User Defined Table?
Example:
In Item Master Data table, I want to add 3 User Defined Fields, for e.g, Country, State and Region.
When the value of Country combo is changed, values loaded in State and Region combos should change automatically.
I'm storing the relationship between Country,State and Region in my own user defined table. I want to load the comboboxes with a query from that table.
Or, if there's no solution to the above problem:
when the Item Master data table is opened, can we launch our own form?
Is there a way to specify that?
Please reply me back.. I'm a beginner learning SAP.
With Thanks in advance,
Geetha

Error -5002 when adding linked user defined field using DI API

Hello,
When I try to add a linked user defined field using DI API I get the error number -5002 with description:
"The field 'Related Table' should consist of 8 alphanumeric characters with no valid or default values"
I Get the error when I use the Add method.
What is the solution for this problem? I use SBO 2005 A SP1 Patch 18
The code I use is (.NET C# 2.0):
SAPbobsCOM.IUserFieldsMD uf = (SAPbobsCOM.IUserFieldsMD)company.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oUserFields);
uf.Name = "S_BUCO";
uf.TableName = "OPOR";
uf.Type = SAPbobsCOM.BoFieldTypes.db_Memo;
uf.SubType = SAPbobsCOM.BoFldSubTypes.st_Link;
uf.LinkedTable = "S_BU";
uf.Description = "Description";
uf.Add()
Regards,
Jeffrey

Hi Jeffrey,
Your code above does not match the settings you are using in the UI. In particular, the type and subtype you are setting in code are not correct.
To create the UDF via code, set the field types as follows:
SAPbobsCOM.IUserFieldsMD uf = (SAPbobsCOM.IUserFieldsMD)company.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oUserFields);
uf.Name = "S_BUCO";
uf.TableName = "OPOR";
uf.Type = SAPbobsCOM.BoFieldTypes.db_Alpha;
uf.EditSize = 8;
uf.LinkedTable = "S_BU";
uf.Description = "Description";
uf.Add()
There's no need to set the SubType property as you require a regular alphanumeric field.
Kind Regards,
Owen

User defined field with Linked Table property

Hi All,
I know this has been posted several times but I cannot get this to work. I am trying to add a user defined field and link it to a table.
I am getting the error "The field 'Related Table' should consist of 8 alphanumeric characters with no valid or default values "
Everything I check says that the code I am using is correct. Is it possible the problem is that I am trying to connect to an SAP table instead of a user defined table. Is it possible to link a user defined field to an SAP table?
My code below:
                oUserFieldsMD.TableName = "OITM"
                oUserFieldsMD.Name = "SHP"
                oUserFieldsMD.Description = "Must ship via"
                oUserFieldsMD.LinkedTable = "OSHP"
                oUserFieldsMD.Type = SAPbobsCOM.BoFieldTypes.db_Alpha
                oUserFieldsMD.SubType = SAPbobsCOM.BoFldSubTypes.st_None
                oUserFieldsMD.EditSize = 8
                oUserFieldsMD.Size = 8
                oUserFieldsMD.Mandatory = SAPbobsCOM.BoYesNoEnum.tNO
Thanks
Karen

Hello Karen,
you cannot link a userfield to a system table. it has to be link to a user table.
oUserFieldsMD.LinkedTable = "OSHP"
when you have error, just try to do it using the same value in the application. If you cannot do it, it means you cannot do it neither with the DI

User Defined Field with Link Type

Hi,
I am trying to create a user defined field to allow users to attach word documents to Item Master Data.
I have successfully created a User Defined Field under master data with Type: Data, Structure: Link.
It appears in the Item Master Data as I would expect. My questions relates to how to use this field. The first time I click on the field, a file browser window appears where I can select a file. Once I select the file I want I click ok and the path to this file appears in the field. The next time that I click on the field the file will open in its respective application.
My question is: How when the field already contains a path to a file do I change this path so it points to a different file.
Any help I can get on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Brian

Hi,
If you hold down Ctrl on your keyboard and then double click in the link it will allow you to browse to a different file.

User defined field in SD and its link to Value field in COPA (??)

Dear All,
We have created one "Z" field i.e. user defined field and its in VBRP Table. This is a quantity field. to update the values in this field we have used an exit in sales and distribution module. Now, by defining this exit values are correctly populated in VPRP table on line item basis.
Requirement here is we need to get this field in COPA, for same i have carried out the quantity field assignment to value field (KE4M).
Even after this configuration profitability segment is not updated.
Regards,
Sayujya
Edited by: sayu on Mar 15, 2010 10:13 AM

In the past I did something similar and had to use function module EXIT_SAPLKEAB_001 in enhancement COPA0002 to populate the field. To use this exit you'll first need to add a user exit id to your valuation strategy (transaction KE4U). The help on the function module is pretty good, but if you run into a problem let me know.
thanks,

Confirmation of User defined fields on CO11N

Dear All,
Can anybody tell me how to confirm user defined field during operation confirmation of an order. I have created a user field key and assigned in the operation detail screen in routing. Is it required to include a freely defined screen for CO11N in customizing or any other setting is there.
Thanks in advance for your valuable inputs.

Enhancement CONFPP07 contains the following enhancement components:
Function module exits
EXIT_SAPLCORU_S_100 Transfer data from SAPLCORU_S to customer-defined screen
EXIT_SAPLCORU_S_101 Return data from customer-defined screen to SAPLCORU_S
Display documentation

Enhancememnts, as opposed to modifications, are fundamentally independent of releases since they are not made in the SAP original, but in a name space that is reserved for customers.
you have to create a customer defined screen and attach as in the link. Add the Freely definable detail screen in OPK0. Confirm the user defined fields.

User defined field insertion problem in Stock Taking Report (PLD)

We are creating one PLD for one of our customer for Stock Taking Report by modifying the existing sytem report. We will insert two user defined fields (Rack & Bin) from OITW table and link these with the warehouse code field which is at report header as there are different warehouse for the item and material is kept in different rank and bin in different warehouse. But after inserting these fields we found that repetative area becomes blank in the report.
So please let us know how to overcome this problem.
Thanks & with regards.
Aloke
Edited by: ALOKE BANDYOPADHYAY on Sep 4, 2010 4:42 PM

Hi Aloke,
This PLD is one of the hard coded PLD. You are not able to add UDF freely. I believe you may only add UDF from OITM table. Try you own report instead.

User defined field usage

Hi, we have a user defined field in our item master data. It's for a link to a pdf on one of our servers. I can enter a URL into this field and when I double click it, the pdf loads. This is what we want. But I can't for the life of me figure out how to clear or change the value of the field. If I click the field it does nothing or if I double click it opens the document. If I right click one of the options is "Cancel" but I'm terrified of cancelling the entire item.
How do I manage the value of this field?
Thanks!

Hi,
Its Data Transfer work bench.

Check with your IT admin to have it installed if you dont have one.
