Using SAP Tokens & showing extra columns to choose

I have a Crystal Report where I have a SAP token parameter to select a budget scenario to run the report based on.
My token is selecting the 3 columns I need to display inorder to select the correct scenario - AbsID, Name & FinancYear.
Budget@Select AbsID, Name,FinancYear  from OBGS order by 3
When I preview in SAP my drop down box only gives me AbsID and name - which is of course a list diplaying "Main Budget" repeated for the number of financial year I have in the database.
As these Main Budgets can (and have) been created in any order, it is impossible toexpect the users to select the correct budget from the displayed data.
As there is no direct join from OBGS to OFPR on financial year, I can't work out how to either display the additional column in the choose from list, or filter my selection statement so it will only give scenarios that relate to the financial year for the period I have selected
Any sensible suggestions welomed!

Hi Julie,
Remember that combo box controls in SAP can only display two values, a code and description, or in the case of report tokens the first two columns you specify in the token query. Seeing as you need the third column to distinguish between the first two sets of values a combo box is no use to you on it's own.
The following is off the top of my head and untested but what about either replacing the combo box with a CFL that shows as many columns as you need (and by nice coincidence the first column in that table is the value you want selected, AbsID), OR, created two report parameters the first displays the Financial Year and the second displays the AbsID and Name values for the selected FinYr?
Remember I'm writing this free hand so you'll need to test to make sure it's ok.
Replace Cbo with CFL
Budget@Select * From OBGS order by 3
This should display a CFL where you can add any extra columns needed from the form settings.
Two Cbo Parameters
FinYr@ SELECT F_RefDate FROM OFPR
Budget@Select AbsID, Name from OBGS WHERE FinancYear = ('FinYr@') order by 3
So you can reference one parameter name inside another to limit the results displayed by the second parameter.
One of the above or some variation should get you what you need.
Regards,
Andrew.

  • Hi I'm a total novice, as you will see. But Iam trying to use template of an employee schedule but when I try to add extra columns it does not add the preset formula with it, so it works out total hours and total pay?   If any one can help please.

    Hi Grum,
    If the formulas aren't filling to the new column, you must have changed something in the template since you first opened it. Numbers is rather fussy about filling row content in columns as they are added. Only rows with the same expression in every Body Column will fill when a column is added. Just as an experiment, start a new Employee Schedule document from the Template Chooser and then add a column by clicking the Add Column handle in the upper right corner of the table. If that works, as it should, then think about what might have changed in your working document to disconnect that feature. Maybe we can figure it out together.

  • I have used SAP doc mgmt for years. We copied a client and now when I configure a Class to my DMS DIR and go to CV01n Additional Data NONE of the characteristic entry boxes show up. Additional Data is blank.

    I have used SAP doc mgmt for years. We copied a client and now when I configure a Class to my DMS DIR and go to CV01n Additional Data NONE of the characteristic entry boxes show up. Additional Data is blank.
    It appears there must be some high level setting missing in the client. I have checked all authorizations and cannot find a difference between this client and all of the other clients we have. Only this one client does not show the class characteristics in the Additional Data tab.
    Any ideas of why this standard function is not working). It does not matter which DIR I config the 017 class to, nothing shows on Additional Data.

    Hi,
    The issue is resolved. We are working in a sandbox with Class configuration on a DMS issue related to standard class 017. There are no standard settings in SPRO - Cross-Application Components | Maintain Object Types and Class Types | for the object type DRAW that will allow "auto-populating" characteristic values as we do with VC class 300.
    For whatever reason DRAW and class 017 are not configured by SAP in the same manner as class 300 for example.
    We made a config entry for DRAW Class 017 VBAP. Let's just say the system did not like that.
    We are exploring other options.

  • How to use script to show how many columns contain no data

    I have a requirement. There is a source which is excel file, from this excel file we need to load data in staging table. There are 5 mandatory columns those should not be null. We have used 'No Data Check' for this. The logic is if any of the above mentioned 5 columns  do not contain any record the record will be moved to without data. Up to this it is fine. Now the requirement is to show which column/columns does/do not contain data. We have used a script for this purpose as:
    res=' '
    res=input1[0]+'  :Failed due to null values in mandatory columns';
    input1[1]=res;
    output1=res;
    But this is showing message as 'Failed due to null values in mandatory columns', which is a generic message. We need to show which column/columns does/do not contain value as 'Failed due to null values in mandatory column columnA, columnB, columnC'. Can anyone help me in this regard. Any kind of help is appreciated.

    You could use the variable inputname1, which holds an array of the input attribute names to the script processor. For example:
    var result = "";
    var first = true;
    for (i = 1; i < input1.length; i++) {
      if (input1[i] == null || input1[i] == "") {
        if (first) {
          first = false;
        } else {
          result += ", ";
        result += inputname1[i];
    if (result.length > 0) {
      result = "Failed due to null values in the following mandatory columns: " + result;
    output1 = result;

    what is "owner-pc-vaio". its in my shared column in Finder. would another computer using my wifi show up in the shared column?

    If you're in a hotel, school, or someplace with public WiFi access, you'll see a list of all other computers on the network. 
    As opposed to the answers above, with or without sharing on, you will see others on the network and they can see you.  As long as you have sharing off, and even then, they'd not have unrestricted acces unless you disabled all password access, they can see you but they can't do anything.
    If you're on your own private network, someone is stealing your bandwidth.  Since it's a piece of junk Windows computer, you can find out how to send them a nasty virus over a LAN.

    Hi gajeramesh ,
    Goto transaction 'SU10'
    Here you have all the data selection regarding a particular user id, so what you can do is do F1 on any of the fields and see the technical help in that for the table names.
    some of the tables are :
                                     1) 'USUSERS'(User: Transfer structure for lists of users),
                                     2) 'USER_ADDR' (Users by address data)
                                     3) 'USUSERALL' (Users with All Data for List Output)
    I hope this helps you  !!

    HI,
    IN SQ02, IF table is already in JOIN, just click on the PLUS sign to expand the strcture.
    All the field showing Plus sign in the strcture are selected in your query and with MINUS sing are no selected.
    So you have to just click on the MINUS sign for the field you want to use through table field.
    Generate the query and execute thriugh SQ01.
    If you want to add some other field which is not a part of JOIN,
    then click on EXTRAS Button shown in the MENU option.
    Click on Create button and system will ask abt the additional field.

  • Showing preview column in icon mode crashes finder

    Issue: Finder crashes and my icons on my desktop disappear then reappear when attempting to view a file of any type in icon mode with "show preview column" selected in "Show View Options".
    I don't recall any recent updates or any changes to my G5. I can open a file in its application program (i.e. a .jpg opens in Photoshop) if I double click it quickly enough before Finder crashes. The only way I can get icon view not to crash Finder is by unchecking the "show preview column" box in "Show view options". I like the preview option and would very much like to get it back.
    Any help in this matter would be appreciated.

    If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!

  • Hide/show a column in a report

    Hi,
    I'm actually looking for a solution to hide/show a column in a report (matrix form)in function of a parameter..
    Using the conditionnal formating propertie to hide a column (return false) works, but the colmuns in the right side don't move.. It's not very pretty..
    An other way could be to change the elasticity property of a column, and replace the data by "", but apparently, we can't access to this property by the srw command.
    I really need a solution, else I'll have to produce as many reports as I've to hide columns...
    Thanks a lot

  • Grouping by ID column, but showing Name column in the Tree View.

    Hi, i'm using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010.  I'm grouping my report by TenantID column.  When i generate the report, it shows the TenantID in the TreeView (on the left side).  Is there a way that i can group by TenantID, but show TenantName column in the TreeView?  How would i do that?
    P.S. The reason i don't want to group by TenantName is because, sometimes some tenants may have the same name, and i don't want the report to combine them.
    Thanks so much.

  • SSO to non SAP Application using SAP Logon Ticket

    Hi Experts,
    I Have EP 7 SP 15 using SPNego Wizard to SSO with Active Directory and SSO between EP and ECC using SAP Certificates.
    Now I have a demand to SSO some JAVA based applications (non SAP) to my portal using the SAP Logon Ticket.
    I Have followed some blogs that directed me to use SAPSSOEXT (some libs) to read the MYSAPSSO2 cookie. The problem is that I didn't found this cookie, I even executed the command javascript:document to look for this cookie but the browser just show me the JSESSIONID info.
    Does anybody knows where I can find this cookie or if there's a better way to set up this SSO? It´s necessary to say that I cannot SSO these application to the kerberos protocol because some security reasons on my company.
    Thanks
    Armando

    Hi,
    I dont have much info related but i can giv u hint
    refer OSS Notes 442401 and 723896.
    When using SAP logon tickets for non-SAP applications, two different implementation options are available. The difference lies in where the ticket verification takes place.
    In the first case,  the SAP logon ticket is submitted to the web server filter located on the web server. The web server filter verifies the portal serveru2019s public key
    certificate using its local Personal Security Environment (PSE) and then populates the HTTP header field with the user ID for SSO to the non-sap web application.
    In the second case,  the SAP logon ticket is sent to the non-SAP application, which then verifies it using the ticket verification DLL and submits the user ID to the application for SSO.
