Hi,
Once a UDF is created and a value is entered in it, the same cannot be retrieved in any of the layouts and reports unless a Key is generated for that UDF. By assigning a Key to that UDF, the same UDF can be used in Crystal Reports or any other Reporting tool to extract its values from SAP. These reporting tools searches the Uniqueness of the UDF Values with this Keys only.
For eg.: When you develop a report and select a table from which you need the fields to be shown in the layout. In that, the only fields whose keys are generated are only available to use in the report.
Hope its clear to you.
Regards,
Papil

    Hi Silambu,
    This database probably has inconsistent issue already. You need try restart SQL server and perform DBCC first.

  • How to disable copy and paste in a field and allowing user to key in the data in that field...

    Hi all,
           I need your help on the below scenario.
    I have to stop user to copy and paste the data into the field. But allowing user to enter the data in that field.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Thiru.

    Hi thiru
    It sounds like you want a to write a PJC component to extend a forms text item that will capture and eliminate the key strokes and mouse actions used to copy and past thus preventing a user from performing this action.  There are many examples on the interent of how this can be written e.g. the Oracle Forms PJCs/Java Beans web site.   You will need to have jdeveloper to write thise bit of code.  Oracle forms also has a tutorial on how to plug the JAR file you generate into your for sessions.

  • Adding user defined field in print layout design of Bill of matrial Report

    I want to add "Drawing No" which is user defined field in Bill of Material report need immediate help .

    Hi,
    If you add the UDF in BOM-Title then the UDF will be in OITT table.
    If you add the UDF in BOM-Rows then the UDF will be in ITT1 table.
    You will find BOM-Title or BOM-Rows in Production Module (ie., in User Defined Fields --> Manage User Fields)
    In PLD, You can print the UDF if you search in the above said tables.

    Pankaj,
    When you do the Manage User Fields area to define a UDF, all the possible areas where UDF's can be created in B1 is listed.  You would be able to create UDF's only on these.

    Dear
    do you mean to add a user defined field to an document type UDO? if this  is the case,
    1. create the UDT
    2. go to Tools-> customization tools->User Defined Fields-Management, expand User Tables, add the udf to the UDT
    3. register the UDT as UDO.

  • User Define Field

    Hi,
    Just wondering, if any one faced the dilemma as I am facing in reference to User Define field.
    I have user define field and is visible in SBO Interface (Tools - User Defined Field - Manage User Defined field), but unfortunately its not available in XL report writer (Tools - User Defined Fields). Its quite confusing because other user defined field is visible in XL Reporter, but only one is missing. Is there any restriction or can anyone guide to view all the user-defined fields in XL Reporter defined in SBO interface.
    Regards
    Ronald

    Hi,
    There is a pdf file from SAP that explains about the table supported by XL reporter. So, if you made some UDF in the table that is not supported by XL reporter, I think it won't be available in the XL reporter.
    The pdf file title is Support of User-Defined Fields (UDFs) in XL Reporter - SAP Business One 2005A SP01 - March 2006.

  • Browse row of a user table

    i have a question about user table. I create my user table and access with getByKey() and there is no problem.
    What i have to do for list all record in table ? There is not something Browse ?
    thanks in advice

    Matteo,
    use the recordset object to access all user tables.
    SQL is "Select * from [@YourTableName]"
    That will get you all records into the recordset.

    From within the SAP Business One user interface under Tools > Customization Tools > User-Defined Fields - Management, you need to add to the Marketing Documents > Tile and/or Rows, etc.

  • Remove fields from table key

    I define a customize table (maintenance only by cust., not SAP import).
    5 of the fields are the table keys.
    When I remove 2 fields from the key and adjust the table I get the following errors
    “Primary key change not permitted for value table ZT7IL60”
    “Activation of Table ZT7IL60 not possible (please check)”
    Any clue why and how to remove some fields from the key?

    hi there,
    the reason for  this error can be any....
    may be you are using that field in the foreign key reference of another table. thats y it is not allowing the change option as it will affect other table's values.
    another thing can be the one suggested in the above post.
    do reply if any of the methods mentioned helps.
    Do reward if helpful./
