User Stamp/Create Stamp Fields

Hi Folks,
Following fields setup :
Created By [field type : User stamp]
Created On [field type : create stamp]
Updated On [field type : time stamp ]
Updated By [field type : User stamp]
On record create - all of these fields are supposed tobe populated but in SP06 HF 04 - when we use "Shift+Delete" to save the record - in record detail the auto id and all the above fields are not populated . Refresh or click anywhere else away from the record pane & then come back to the record detail - you see all values populated .
To me it looks like a bug - has anyone else observed this?
Regards,
Vinay

Hi Vinay,
Whenever you want to create a record in MDM data manger.
- Rt click on the record pane and select ADD
- On adding a new record you need to fill in all the deatails of the record under the record detail tab
- You will be bale to make entry in the editable fields but not in Sytem populated fields such a suser stamp and create stamp etc
- After entering the valid data you have to just click on the main data manager record pane-
- A processing icon will be shown for sometime afterw hich your created record should get filled with all the sytem defined fields
- Shift+Enter is also one way to save the rec.
I have worked on SP06 and it is fine with this funtionality.it is the way it works for any version for SAP MDM.
Hope it helped
Kindly Reward points if found useful
Thanks

Allow User to Create Metadata Fields

There should be a way to allow user to define their own metadata fields - Bridge is the most logical place to do this.
For example I'd like to add a field for color profile info:
1 a boolean field which indicates whether or not a CP is embeded,
1 text field for the name of the CP (This info should already be built into metadata - but until it is, I'd sure like a quick way to check)
--Take a look at Portfolio for an example of how this could be done.
thanks, xandr

yes yes.. I want to do this also??

Create User Stamp and Update User Stamp

Hello
Is there a way to track the User ID who creates a record and also track the last User ID to update the same record? The only field type is USER STAMP so I do not see a way to track both users. When I choose USER STAMP, the Writable Once options is grayed out and changed to No.
Create User ID = 123. This ID should coordinate with the CREAT STAMP data and time
Last Update User ID = 789. This ID should coordinate with the TIME STAMP data and time
thanks
Tammi

Hi Tammi,
Change Tracking is definitely a best solution to track the changes, no doubt about that. but the problem with chnage tracking is that it requires lot of memory and it hampers the performance of MDM server.
So, if your requirement is only to know the user who created the record and the last user who changed the record; then there can be a workaround which will definitely solve your problem.
Try these steps:
1. First create two fields in the repository say Created By and Last Updated By. First field will be of type Text and second field will be of type User Stamp.
2. Now in Data Manager, create an assignment which will assign the value of Last Updated By to Created By.
3. Now create a workflow which will trigger, everytime new record gets added into repository and call this assignment in that workflow.
4. So everytime you create a record, user Id of creator will gets stored in Created By field and next time when you update the same record that user ID will gets stored in Last Updated by field.
This should work. Please let us know if problem still persists.

GetSelectedFields() for time stamp and user stamp using java api

using Java API's
getSelectedFields() returns NULL value if values presented also, for Time stamp and User stamp
properties in Flat tables , is there any other alternative way to get the SelectedFields values ?
Edited by: Vijaya Sekhar Reddy Alla on Mar 19, 2008 3:16 PM

Well, I can't say I solved the problem, because I got another one afterwards.
As usually I created a GetFieldListCommand, set its needed attributes and executed it. Then I read all the field properties out:
FieldProperties[] fieldProp = getFieldListCommand.getFields();
Afterwards it is possible to do what you want. Using a for-loop.
for (FieldProperties fp : fieldProperties) {
UserStampFieldProperties usfp = (UserStampFieldProperties) fp; // <= Cast error
FieldId[] fieldIDs = usfp.getSelectedFields();
And this is what I get now:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sap.mdm.schema.fields.FixedWidthTextFieldProperties cannot be cast to com.sap.mdm.schema.fields.UserStampFieldProperties
Why this happens, I don't know. But it should somehow be solveable.

How to Convert a 'Time Stamp' field to Date......?

Hello Gurus:
I am using a Generic Extractor to pull some stats data. One of the field is a Time Stamp field, which tells me the date and time of Transaction run. I only need "Date". I tried mapping the stamp field to Date info-object hoping for a automatic determination of the Date.... (like the Week, Month happens). Well, I was wrong!
I only need the Date part. How can I do this in BI? is teher a specific SAP info-object for this that could be used..? If not, what would be the routine. The Date field that comes in is a SAP format... "u201C20,070,505.0000000u201D meaning the Transaction was run
on 05/05/2007. How can I get this convertion in BI transaformation?? is there a special Routine...?
Also, we are trying to use "Time Stamp" based DELTA from a generic extraction. The field used is a System date with time stamp. Value looks like u201C20100,505,170,113.2918470u201D, u201C20100,505,170,113.4748820u201D Every record pulled has a different value... probably giving me the time at which the record was created or generated. Now, with DELTA specifid on this type of field, what will be the 'Current Status" value in Delta queue? Is it based on the last record created and will that be the highest value? For next Delta extraction, does it compare the extraction time stamp to this value and bring in those records that are greater than the 'Current Status" value? I guess with that we can have as many deltas as we want..... right?? is there any particular setting I should be doing or worried/ careful about setting etc....?
Thanks for the response in advance....
Best..... SMaa

Thanks Akshay,
Your suggestion worked right away and was probably the easiest of all. I tried the Function Module that Pravender suggested,
but it did not return me the date back.... may be because it does not need the Micro Seconds in it....? Routine as suggested by
Satyam might work too, but did not go there....!
Thanks to all of you.
Best..... SMaa

How can I create a form for users wherein the text field will expand to accommodate additional text?

How can I create a form for users wherein the text field will expand to accommodate additional text?

You need to use LiveCycle (PC Only) to create a dynamic form like that.
The best you can do with Acrobat to view all of the text in a field is to set the field to multiline, and set the size to "Auto" (If you don't set the size to 'Auto', you can enter as much text as you wish, but the user will need to use the scrollbar to view all of the text.)

How to create Lookup field in user form in OIM 11g - Urgent

Hi Experts,
How to create Lookup field in User Form - OIM 11g.
Pls. provide your support on priority.
Regards
Karan

Thanks all for your suggestion.
Our requirement, is we need to have a user defined field similar to how its there in "Organisation".
For example we need to create an user defined field like "Service Holding" which holds different services say like Service 1, Service 2, Service 3 etc.
Under each service there are multiple roles....
Eg:
Service 1 - Role 1, Role 2, Role 3
Service 2 - Role 4, Role 5
Service 3 - Role 6, Role 7, Role 8
Is there a way to store multi-valued attribute in OIM UDF? If so, pls. guide us
If its not possible we would need to create a Lookup field (something similar to Organization or Manager). User clicks on the button (lens button), which should invoke an API wherein he can select specific Roles and save in User. Eg. like Service 1 - Role 1#Service 2 # Role 5 and store in the backend database.
Is this possible. Pls. guide.

Karan

Sharepoint Site User name,created by and Modified field issue

I am being admin of sharepoint site . I have added a user to my sharepoint site from people and groups(Site Action-->Site Settings-->Users and Permissions-->People and Groups). So Now "Created by" and "Modified by" field should
show My login name(display name) in those fields Right ? But In those field it is showing user name whom I have added to my sharepoint site. I have added user to my site so My display name should be their in "created by" and "modified
by" field. Facing this issue on PROD and UAT.

Hi Rajshekhar,
Actually, the users have been added to the site groups or granted with permissions in Site Permissions, then the users will be added to the User Information List of the site collection.
I recommend to check if the users you added have already been listed in the User Information List.
If yes, then the Created By and Modified By fields have already been filled with other values.
Created By field will show the user name who is the first one to add the user to the site and the Modified By field will show the last one who edit the My Settings of that user.
To access the User Information List, you can type the URL like this:
http://server/_catalogs/users/detail.aspx.

Victoria

To determine shift timing based on a time stamp field

Hi all,
I have an issue with a determing shift timings.
I have a time stamp field QALS-ENTSTEZEIT which has a value like 17:22:29.
Now based on this I have to determine the shifts.
There will be 3 shifts.
shift 1 between 08:00:00 to 16:00:00
shift 2 between 16:00:00 to 00:00:00
shift 3 between 00:00:00 to 08:00:00.
Now the issue is :this statement,
QALS-ENTSTEZEIT BETWEEN '00:00:01' AND '08:00:00'.
do not triggered.
Please suggest some solution.
Thanks and Regards
Nazmul

Hi,
Try the below code, it may solve your problem.
Data : V_TIME type QALS-ENTSTEZEIT, shift.
Ranges : R_T1 for QALS-ENTSTEZEIT , R_T2 for QALS-ENTSTEZEIT, R_T3 for QALS-ENTSTEZEIT.
R_T1-SIGN = 'I'.
R_T1-option = 'BT'.
R_T1-LOW = '080000'.
R_T1-HIGH = '160000'.
APPEND R_T1.
R_T2-SIGN = 'I'.
R_T2-option = 'BT'.
R_T2-LOW = '160000'.
R_T2-HIGH = '235959'. " Change like this, its not much difference from 000001 but seems to be working
APPEND R_T2.
R_T3-SIGN = 'I'.
R_T3-option = 'BT'.
R_T3-LOW = '000001'.
R_T3-HIGH = '080000'.
APPEND R_T3.
V_TIME = '172259'. " u can assign QALS-ENTSTEZEIT directly to v_time
*CONCATENATE V_TIME+0(2) ':' V_TIME+2(2) ':' V_TIME+4(2) INTO V_TIME. "no need for this
IF V_TIME IN R_T1.
SHIFT = '1'.
ELSEIF V_TIME IN R_T2 .
SHIFT = '2'.
ELSEIF V_TIME IN R_T3.
SHIFT = '3'.
ENDIF.
Check and revert back.

Allow users to create reports based on their own selection of fields

Is there a way to allow users to create reports based on their own selection of fields?
And if there is a way, then how?
In access we retrieve all demographic info on one screen and on another screen user can be able to choose specific fields from a list box to import data into file.

Hi,
This can be handled in various ways - but the principles are the same.
You need to apply conditional displays to all of the columns that your user can select and base the display of a column on the value of a field on the page.
You can have a series of Yes/No options - one for each field and base the display on the corresponding field being Yes. Or you can use checkboxes.
However, if you wish to use a multiselect list (which is probably easier as you can dynamically generate the list of field names), you will need to have hidden fields that will store either Y/N or 1/0 (I use ones/zeros) and have the conditional displays watch these fields instead. Populating these hidden fields is a bit more tricky than just having fields on the page that the user can control, but is doable:
1 - Create one hidden field for each field in the report that you want to show/hide. Put these fields in the same region as the select list in a region above the report
2 - Set conditional display values to "Value of Item in Expression 1 = Expression 2" and use the appropriate hidden field for Expression 1 and in Expression 2 enter in 1
3 - Create a page process that runs on submit, and create PL/SQL code something like:
DECLARE
lFields HTMLDB_APPLICATION_GLOBAL.VC_ARR2;
vField VARCHAR2(1000);
BEGIN
:P31_SHOW_EMPNO := 0;
:P31_SHOW_ENAME := 0;
:P31_SHOW_JOB := 0;
:P31_SHOW_MGR := 0;
:P31_SHOW_HIREDATE := 0;
:P31_SHOW_SAL := 0;
:P31_SHOW_COMM := 0;
:P31_SHOW_DEPTNO := 0;
lFields := HTMLDB_UTIL.STRING_TO_TABLE(:P31_FIELDS);
FOR i IN lFields.FIRST..lFields.LAST LOOP
vField := lFields(i);
IF vField = 'EMPNO' THEN
:P31_SHOW_EMPNO := 1;
ELSIF vField = 'ENAME' THEN
:P31_SHOW_ENAME := 1;
ELSIF vField = 'JOB' THEN
:P31_SHOW_JOB := 1;
ELSIF vField = 'MGR' THEN
:P31_SHOW_MGR := 1;
ELSIF vField = 'HIREDATE' THEN
:P31_SHOW_HIREDATE := 1;
ELSIF vField = 'SAL' THEN
:P31_SHOW_SAL := 1;
ELSIF vField = 'COMM' THEN
:P31_SHOW_COMM := 1;
ELSIF vField = 'DEPTNO' THEN
:P31_SHOW_DEPTNO := 1;
END IF;
END LOOP;
END;
4 - Finally, add a button that generates the report - this just needs to submit the page and branch back to the same page
I've used the standard EMP table for this example and my hidden fields are P31_SHOW_fieldname. The code resets the hidden fields to 0, checks if the user has selected the field from the list (P31_FIELDS) and changes the hidden fields value to 1 for all those selected. When the page is re-rendered, the report hides the columns where the hidden field value is 0 and displays those where it is 1. The export option will then only export those fields that are displayed.
You can see an example of this here:

URGENT!restrict user frm edit a field data (allow create) in apx applicatn

hi,
I have a table with 3 columns say
col1 primary key
col2
col3
i'm filling my col1 with a berfore insert trigger
i have built an apex application with a report and form page on above table.
my end user can create records through the application form page ( form page shows and allows only col2,col3 to be filled.)
once the record is created by the user, while editing the same record(by clicking the edit ICON present before that particular record)only col3 should be shown as editable in the form page to be updated by the user.
please help me out its urgent.
thanks and regards,
ajay
Edited by: Aj on Aug 4, 2011 3:55 AM

Hi Ajay,
When navigating from a link(edit ICON) pass a request say 'UPDATE' and:
1) Render col1 and col2 as disabled/read-only on UPDATE request.(using Dynamic Action or other ways)
(If you are disabling and doing update operation in which you are using disabled elements you have to re-enable on submit)
2) Conditionally display elements i.e. do not display col1 and col2 on UPDATE request.
Hope it helps!

Created By field and Modified By field and People Picker field values are hidden to other Users

Hi,
We have a strange permission issue in one of the MOSS-2007 server farm. The users are not able to see each other name in "created by" and "modified by" column value in lists and libraries. For example if "User A" create an item in a list then if "User B" opens that item then he cannot see "created by" and "modified by" column value and vice-versa. But they can see their name in "created by" and "modified by" column but not others. Both the users has contribute access to that list, so both can edit each other data but cannot see each other name.
This become a bigger issue, if any of tje list has people picker column, then thay cannot see that column value(if that column value does not his/her own name). This means this column value will be always empty for "user A" when that peopel picker value is anything other than "User A". This happens for all the lists and libraries.
Even "User A" and "User B" are owner of that site, it behaves the same. But site collection administrator can see "created by" and "modified by" for all items for all the users.
It seems very strange for me. any help on this will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Sanban

Hi,
You can try to create a new standard view, then select “created by” and “modified by” column under columns, next apply this view, finally check the effect.
Did you customize the permissions of the list or document library? Did you customize the permission of the item? For example, break the permission inheritance form its parents. If so, try to inherit permission from its parents, after that create a new standard view according to the steps above, then check the effect.
By default, permissions on lists, libraries, folders, items, and documents are inherited from the parent site. However, you can break this inheritance for any securable object at a lower level in the hierarchy by editing the permissions on that securable object (that is, creating a unique permission assignment) . For example, you can edit the permissions for a document library, which breaks the permissions inheritance from the site.
You can also try to create a new document library, then create a new document with user A, after that log into with user B, check the effect.

User exit MM06E005 - Customer fields in purchasing document

Hi,
I am using user exit MM06E005 - Customer fields in purchasing document to validate the line items in PO and display the value at header level.
My requirement is when the user enters the line items and press enter the validated value should get populated at header level.I had included a tab (customer tab) in that the value should get displayed.
likewise for each and every line items the value should keep on changing.
And
I the field that i had added at header shows the value during the save but once we come out and enter again,it is not displaying the same.
Regards
Manoj

Hi,
Indeed the exit which you have specified MM06E005 comprises the enhancement for customizing fields and screens associated with it. may be you might not have activated the screen associated with the exit. the screen might have been created but missed while activating.
