User Table

Hi there,
I created a user table with 16 fields, if I run a query like "SELECT * FROM myTable" I can see all the column and the data inserted, when I use "Tools-User Tables" and then I select myTable I see only 14 fields and is not matter of resize.
How come?
Roberto

When ur table is being shown with the columns please click the Form Settings on the tool bar and make sure all the cols are Visible and Active.
Hope it helps,

Vasu Natari.

How do I create new user table in program and then access it?

I am writing an application where I check for the existence of user objects when the add on starts and run the setup if the objects do not exist. I can create the user tables and fields but after the setup completes these objects still are not visible.
If the user objects exist when the add on is first run everything is detected correctly.
When a user object is added in SAP the user is eventually prompted to restart so I suspect something needs to happen prior to the add on being able to use the new fields.
Does the add on need to wait for the DI Server to perform some action? Do I need to just quit the add on's class and rerun it, disconnect and reconnect to the company, or get a new Application and/or company object?
What I want to do is figure out a way for the add on to automatically run the configuration if the user tables and fields do not exist yet and then kick off the regular add on code. I haven't seen anyone else's code so I don't know what is recommended or required here.
Thanks for any assistance!

I found that the add on can validate the existance of the user fields if I disconnect from the company object, set the SAPbouiCOM.Application and SAPbobsCOM.Company objects to null, set the new application, context, and company objects, and reconnect once more.
HOWEVER...
I still have to wait for the client to be restarted manually before I can run any of the form I added to the menu.
So, I'd still like to know what the best practice is here. Should I just exit after setting up the tables and tell the user to restart SAP?

Crystal Report error trying to retrieve data from a user table

Hi,
I'm making crystal report application with VS 2005 and I need to retrieve data form a user table. I'm using Pull method, I configure the connection and parameters by code.
I think that the problem could be the @ that is used to identify these tables. Please, if some body had this problem before and have a solution, please let me know asap.
Thanks

Hi Andrea,
I had the same problem today. I upgraded from Crystal Version 8 to 11 and the problem was solved. Maybe it is too late for you, but I wanted to post the solution if anybody else has the same problem.

HOW CAN I ADD/UPDATE/INSERT IN A USER TABLE WITH MATRIX

Hi All,
I have one User table (Defined as No Object) and what i need to do is a form with a matrix to Add/Update/Delete data in my user table.
I already create the form and the matrix that already give me the user table data. But now i have several problems to solve.
First I try to add a new row but this new row get the data of the last row in the matrix. What i needed is a blank row to add new data in the user table.
Second, when i change data in matrix and do update in the form, sap show me the message that the operation is successfully done but the data in the user table in not updated.
I am trying to do one forma like whe can find in Setup-> General -> Freight.
Can anyone help me?
Best Regards,
Luis Duarte

Hi,
If ur dealing with a simple form like that U can as well use the direct table form, and just provide a FMS to auto matically fill the code and name. U can directly use the form by.. Tools-->UserDefined Windows
Or
Comming to ur problem.... when ur adding a new row clear the data sources so that u'll get a blank row.
And for update the best thing to do is delete all the records in the table and again insert all the records directly from the matrix.
Hope it helps,

How to save matrix do user table?

Hi,
I have created on system form matrix as:
                    oNewItem = oOrderForm.Items.Add("a", SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_MATRIX)
                    oNewItem.Top = 150
                    omatrix1 = oNewItem.Specific
                    oColumns = omatrix1.Columns
                    oColumn = oColumns.Add("#", SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_EDIT)
                    oColumn.TitleObject.Caption = "#"
                    oColumn.Width = 20
                    oColumn.Editable = False
                    oColumn = oColumns.Add("code", SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_EDIT)
                    oColumn = oColumns.Add("name", SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_EDIT)
                    oColumn = oColumns.Add("cesta", SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_EDIT)
This matrix i have bounded to datasource as:
            oDBDataSource = oOrderForm.DataSources.DBDataSources.Add("@SKIL_ATTACH")
            oConditions = New SAPbouiCOM.Conditions
            oCondition = oConditions.Add
            oCondition.BracketOpenNum = 2
            oCondition.Alias = "U_PATH"
            oCondition.Operation = SAPbouiCOM.BoConditionOperation.co_EQUAL
            oCondition.CondVal = "xxx"
            oCondition.BracketCloseNum = 1
            oDBDataSource.Query(oConditions)
            oItem = oOrderForm.Items.Item("a")
            omatrix1 = oItem.Specific
            oColumns = omatrix1.Columns
            oColumn = oColumns.Item("cesta")
            oColumn.DataBind.SetBound(True, "@SKIL_ATTACH", "U_XCESTA1")
            oColumn = oColumns.Item("code")
            oColumn.DataBind.SetBound(True, "@SKIL_ATTACH", "CODE")
            oColumn = oColumns.Item("name")
            oColumn.DataBind.SetBound(True, "@SKIL_ATTACH", "NAME")
            omatrix1.LoadFromDataSource()
The user table has 3 my fields (U_Path, U_xcesta and U_xcesta1) abd 2 fileds (code and name) - this two fields i didnt create, i think that are some system fields?
On the system form everything seems to be ok, I can add rows, modify data, set new data, ... After changing any data in this matrix, the system button will change from OK to Update or Add and after click on this button in status bar is OK, the data was added or updated...
The problem is, that in user table aren`t data modified and there are still old data.
I tried to make update manually as:
                oItem = oOrderForm.Items.Item("a")
                omatrix1 = oItem.Specific
                omatrix1.AddRow(1, 0)
                Dim cell As SAPbouiCOM.Cell
                Dim col As SAPbouiCOM.Column
                Dim ed As SAPbouiCOM.EditText
                col = omatrix1.Columns.Item("code")
                cell = col.Cells.Item(1)
                ed = cell.Specific
                ed.String = CStr("some data")
                omatrix1.Columns.Item("cesta").Editable = True
                omatrix1.Columns.Item("cesta").Cells.Item(1).Click(SAPbouiCOM.BoCellClickType.ct_Double)
                omatrix1.FlushToDataSource()
                omatrix1.AddRow(1, 1)
but nothing happens and data in table are still old. What I`m doing bad? Could anyone help me please?
Please be patient, because Im working with SBO for short time. Thanks!

I solved is through manual updating and inserting to database as"
                    oUserTable = oCompany.UserTables.Item("SKIL_ATTACH")
                    oOrderForm.DataSources.DataTables.Item(0).ExecuteQuery("SELECT coalesce(max(convert(integer, code)),0) as max from dbo.[@SKIL_ATTACH] with(nolock)")
                    oUserTable.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_Popis").Value = "xxxxx"
                    oUserTable.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_PATH").Value = "xxxxx"
                    oUserTable.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_OP").Value = "xxxxx"
                    lRetCode = oUserTable.Add
It works, but I think that it is not the easiest way.

Error while adding user fields to user table using vb6.0

Hi,
I am adding a user tables using vb6.0 using DIAPI.
I am able to add the user table successfully.
I am getting the following error when i am adding the fields to the table.
"The metadata object for this object cannot be updated, since it's ref count is bigger than 0."
My code is as follows:
    oUserFieldsMD.TableName = TABLE_NAME_ITEM_LOCN
    oUserFieldsMD.Name = vTableFields(0, lCount)
    oUserFieldsMD.Description = vTableFields(1, lCount)
    oUserFieldsMD.Type = vTableFields(2, lCount)
    oUserFieldsMD.EditSize = CLng(vTableFields(3,lCount))
    lRetCode = oUserFieldsMD.Add
This error does not come up when i try to add the field to my table using the vb sample provided by SAP.
Your help will me much appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi Satish,
The problem is that you added the table and the objetc that you used to add the table is not freed properly. You need to free the object and then the reference count to that table will be 0 - which will enable you to add the fields
e.g
Dim pUTables As SAPbobsCOM.UserTablesMD
'Do your stuff
Set pUTables = Nothing
Dim pUFields As SAPbobsCOM.UserFieldsMD
'Do your stuff
Set pUFields = Nothing

Creating a User Table via DI API

Hi all,
I'm using
SAP Business One 2004A (6.70.185) SP: 00 PL: 07
and corresponding SAP Business One DI API 2004
I want to create a user table.
I try to create it this way:
I have two functions
First function to create the table
Private Function AP_AddOn_CreateTable() As Boolean
   AP_AddOn_CreateTable = True
   Dim oUDT As SAPbobsCOM.UserTablesMD
   Dim sErrMsg As String
   Dim iErrCode As Integer
   Dim iReturn As Integer
   oUDT = oDIComp.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oUserTables)
   oUDT.TableName = "AP_tbItemCalc"
   oUDT.TableDescription = "ItemCalculation"
   iReturn = oUDT.Add
   If iReturn <> 0 Then
      oDIComp.GetLastError(iErrCode, sErrMsg)
      Message
      AP_AddOn_CreateTable = False
   End If
   oUDT = Nothing
End Function
This works fine
Then I call a second function to create the user fields
Private Function AP_AddOn_CreateFields() As Boolean
   AP_AddOn_CreateFields = False
   Dim oUDF As SAPbobsCOM.UserFieldsMD
   Dim sErrMsg As String
   Dim iErrCode As Integer
   Dim iReturn As Integer
   oUDF = oDIComp.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oUserFields)
   oUDF.TableName = "@AP_tbItemCalc"
   'Field1
   oUDF.Name = "ItemCode"
   oUDF.Description = "ItemCode"
   oUDF.Type = SAPbobsCOM.BoFieldTypes.db_Alpha
   oUDF.Size = 20
   iReturn = oUDF.Add()
   If iReturn <> 0 Then
      oDIComp.GetLastError(iErrCode, sErrMsg)
      Message
      Exit Function
   End If
   'Field2
   oUDF.Name = "ItemName"
   oUDF.Description = "ItemName"
   oUDF.Type = SAPbobsCOM.BoFieldTypes.db_Alpha
   oUDF.Size = 100
   iReturn = oUDF.Add()
   If iReturn <> 0 Then
      oDIComp.GetLastError(iErrCode, sErrMsg)
      Message
      Exit Function
   End If
      next fields
   AP_AddOn_CreateFields = True
End Function
The second function returns on adding the first field, an error, errCode -1120, errMsg Ref count for this object is higher than 0
If i close the application after creating the table and then restart the application only executing the second function it works.
I also tried the example as provided in MetaDataOperations and it shows the same behaviour.
Besides, Im the only user on the system and no other application is running.
Kind regards,
Eduard

How to get number of records in all user tables in one select

Please advise how to retrieve the number of records in all user tables in one select. I would likt to extract the data to excel file.
Many thanks,
Andrew

You could always analyze the tables:
declare
begin
for X in (select owner, table_name from all_tables
             minus
            select owner, table_name from all_external_tables) LOOP
      dbms_stats.Gather_Table_Stats(X.Owner, X.Table_Name) ;
end loop;
end;
/Then: Select Owner, Table_Name, Num_Rows from All_Tables ;

User Table Key set up in User defined field management

Dear Expert,
what is use of User Table Key set up in User defined field management in SAP B1.
Thanks.
Sridharan.R
Edited by: Sridharan.R on Oct 4, 2011 8:26 AM

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.

User tables default forms

Hello,
I want to use the user tables default forms (after adding the user table in Uer Tables menu, it's generated a form to view that table: add, delete, update info).
I'd like to lauch this form from my add-on menu. I know how to do that, but I wonder if that MenuID of the menu depends on the SBO installation (on what other tables were added before in SBO). Also, I'd like to put Choose from list capabilities in that form. I know also how to do this (just like a system form), but I also don't now if the FormID is the same on each installation.
Thank you for your answer.
I hope I made myself clear.
Irina Stanca

You may try this to find the MenuUID of your UDT:
Start Saved Query through menuitem
Have you checked Application.ResourceData? I'm not sure whether UDT forms are considered system forms, though. Anyway, you should be able to get the FormID of your UDT form on the fly by iterating the Application.Forms collection and checking the Title property, which equals the UDT Description.

How to load data into user tables using DIAPIs?

Hi,
I have created an user table using UserTablesMD object.
But I don't have know how to load data into this user table. I guess I have to use UserTable object for that. But I still don't know how to put some data in particular column.
Can somebody please help me with this?
I would appreciate if somebody can share their code in this regard.
Thank you,
Sudha

You can try this code:
Dim lRetCode As Long
Dim userTable As SAPbobsCOM.UserTable
userTable = pCompany.UserTables.Item("My_Table")
'First row in the @My_Table table
userTable.Code = "A1"
userTable.Name = "A.1"
userTable.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_1stF").Value = "First row value"
userTable.Add()
'Second row in the @My_Table table
userTable.Code = "A2"
userTable.Name = "A.2"
userTable.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_1stF").Value = "Second row value"
userTable.Add()
This way I have added 2 lines in my table.
Hope it helps

Using VPD in combination with a user table?

I'm very new with VPD's. In fact, I don't know a thing about it yet (I know the philosophy behind it and the principle, but not the practical implementation). My question: Are VPD's always based on database-users? Our applications have a user-table now, where the access rights to applications are stored. Once a user is present in that table and has the necessary rights, he can login to the application. So we don't have an actual database-user for each "real-life" user, just an entry in a table.
Is it possible to use the system of VPD's (and maybe Oracle Label Security) with users stored in a table, instead of actual database users?

TomVD wrote:
My question: Are VPD's always based on database-users? No, they are not. You could for example put VPD policies on tables that restrict access after a certain time of the day (not caring which user attempts to access the data, using only SYSDATE and a given cut off access time).
TomVD wrote:

VPD allows you to construct a predicate as you would like based on your requirements (you are basically appending a WHERE clause in to every query based on the logic you dictate on the objects and accesses you determine necessary).
Typically if you're running through a connection pool (as it sounds like you are) you would use an application context to set a specific value (the logging in user) and then validate that against your Users table in whatever fashion tickles your fancy
