Using wildcard in If statement

Hi. I have 2 part numbers I'm trying to find and I just want to display the text below on these 2 parts only. The 2 part numbers are:
PL-PLCC44-S-01TR
PL-PLCC68-S-01TR
This is not on a search page, so the Like command does not work.I created this If statement and when I put the whole part number in the quotes, it works fine, but I want to use a wildcard since there will be more parts like this and I will not want to keep adding parts to this If statement.So basically, I'm trying to search for all the part numbers that end in TR. If they do, display the text below on the page. How can I use these wilcards correctly?
<cfif ThisPart.Client_SKU EQ "%TR">Min. buy of 50pcs is required.</cfif>
Thanks.
Andy

Here's the answer:
<cfif right(ThisPart.Client_SKU, 2) EQ "TR">Min. buy of 50pcs is required.</cfif>

Using wildcards in import statement

I typically use wildcards in my import statements. For example:
import javax.swing.*;
Are there any advantages, though, in specifying exactly which classes I am importing?
For example,
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JEditorPane;
import java.swing.JProgressBar;
// etc.
Specigically, is the resulting class file any smaller if I specify exactly which classes to use and does the Java runtime engine load faster if I specify exactly which classes I use in the import statemetents?
Thanks,

Import has precisely zero runtime impact. I believe it is used to help locate the specified class at runtime. Take the following 2 simple source files:
import java.util.Vector;
//import java.util.*;
public class VectorTest
     public static void main( String[] args )
          Vector v = new Vector();
          v.add("Item 1");
          v.add("Item 2");
          System.out.println( v.get(1) );
public class Vector
     public boolean add(Object o)
          return true;
     public Object get(int index)
          return "doh!";
}1) Run the code as is and "Item 2" is displayed
2) Recompile the code using the generic import and "doh!" is displayed.
The point is that by fully qualifying the import statement you are sure you are executing the correct class and not just some class that happens to be lying around somewhere in your classpath.

Is it possible to use wildcards to match cell contents in an if statement?

I need to return a ID along with some other information on a page by page basis, so that the information comes out linked by position. I use a couple of loops and if statements to navigate through the document. I am able to use exact matches of cell contents which is fine when the contents doesn't vary. But the IDs, though they have a similar pattern, are all different. In a menu driven search, I am able to find what I need with '150^9^9^9^9^9-^9^9^9' But when I try putting this (or any number of [0-9], *, ? combinations) it fails. Is it possible to use wildcards? The symbol used for the match (==) makes me suspect that it is not possible and that only literal, exact matches will work. But I wanted to check with the experts before giving up.
Thanks

Thanks for the input. You're right, a GREP search is much more efficient. But what I'm trying to do and the circumstances here don't allow me, I think, to go that route. I am trying to generate a list of values coming from several textframes on a single page and have them come out so that I can tell which values belong together.
I'm using an inherited document with masters that were created 'manually'; the index numbering for textframes and tables is random. I navigate through the pages, looping through textframe indices asking ' does this textframe exist?' If so, I ask if it is a table -- if no, it is a simple textframe and I ask about the ID, if yes, I ask if the contents of cell (0,0) (invariant position and contents) are equal to the table I want.. I am sending the ID and other pieces of information from the table to one row of a new table on a new page. So the ID and other information from a single page are linked by being in the same row.
I know this a little 'off-normal' -- I'm using the search to navigate through the document and find things by location the way you do with a spreadsheet. I have devised a work-around that helps me get around the fact that the ID is not invariant. I create a list of the (exact) IDs from another document, equating them to a variable ('a'). I then loop through the list of IDs and ask if the contents of the textframe is equal to 'a'..This works o.k, unless there happens to be an extra space, a different kind of hyphen, etc. It would be so much easier if I could use the wildcards that work in a menu-driven text or GREP search in script just to ask about the contents of the textframe.
Thanks again
pcbaz (Peter BIerly)
P.S. we have since rewritten the masters so this problem will not exist in the future -- we now know exactly which textframe and/or table indices to refer to to get any particular bits of information and don't need to ask questions about the contents.

Can i use wildcards in function module .

Hi All,
I am using 3 input parameter in my function module .Can i use wildcards for one of the parameter .If so please kindly let me know the procedure.if u give sample code it will be great.
Thanks,
Veera

Hey Wayne....that helped alot. I simplified the formula a bit for this question but your answer led be to my answer. I plugged in the "isblank" function into my formula to get the state of the cell.
For general reference, this is my final formula:
=IF((ISBLANK(S2)),F2−E2,0)
It's saying "if S2 is empty then run the formula "F2-E2" else (if S2 is not empty) then print "0".
Thanks again.
Update: based on the answers, here is another way to sove my probem:
=IF(D2="",F2−E2,0)
If "D2" is blank then run "F2-E2" or else show 0.

Exchange Online Quarantine Search Using Wildcards

Hey There,
This page http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn567976%28v=exchg.150%29.aspx states at the bottom you can use wildcards to search quarantined messages in EOP but I can't get the commandlet to work. I know the brackets are wrong but even are rectifying
that issue the code still doesn't work.
Is it possible to use wildcards with get-quarantinemessage?
Hibs Ya Bass!

Please read full text most carefully.
Q. Are wildcards supported when searching for quarantined messages? Can I search for quarantined messages for a specific domain?
A. Wildcards are not supported
when specifying search criteria in the Exchange admin center. For example, when searching for a sender, you must specify the full email address.
"Not" usually means "not". if this is not the case please notify.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Is this the sarcasm forum then?
It also states that wildcards are not supported when using the Exchange Admin Center. I'm not using the admin center I'm trying to use the powershell code that Microsoft themselves have recommended directly below!
Hibs Ya Bass!
No. The documentation clearly states wildcards re not supported. Reqd the full text.
Your issue appears to be a missing character. Fix that and try again/
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So you're saying that wildcards aren't supported then go on to tell me the there's a missing character in the code that clearly uses a wildcard. Which is it?

Using wildcards (*) in sender file adapter - FTP type

Hi guys!
Dooes it work using wildcards in sender file adapter (FTP type(!) (filesystem obviously work))? I tried it and it failed. it works only for exact name..
I read some articles about FTP and the result is, that ftp work always only with 1 file, so I'm wondering, if this is possible.
Thanks for info!
Olian

Thanks for all replies..
I know of course, that * can be used, I use it in many scenarios too. But on a FileSystem. It is not working if the sender type is FTP.
*, ., *.dat, ... nothing like that works.. Just exact file name.
I am able to pick up file, if I specify it's exact name, so there should be no problem with permissions..
Please, I'd appreciate one reply with comfirmation: yes, we are using asterisk (*) , we access source files via FTP and they are processed.
Is there anybody with this experience, that it works?
Thank you!
Olian

Use of LINE OF statement

Hi all,
what is the use of LINE OF statement?
DATA:       itab_iv_item TYPE TABLE OF   bapi_incinv_create_item,
                 itab_return TYPE TABLE OF bapiret2.
DATA:       wa_iv_item LIKE LINE OF itab_iv_item,
                 wa_return LIKE LINE OF itab_return.
what these statements do
DATA:       wa_iv_item LIKE LINE OF itab_iv_item,
                 wa_return LIKE LINE OF itab_return.
Thanks in advance
krupali.

Hi KR.,
1.
types: begin of st1,
          <fields>
          end of st1.
data: wa type st1.
Here we are declaring the wa by using the syntax TYPE. because here we know the structre.
2.
data: wa type vbak.
Here we are declaring the wa wrt Database Table so here we can use TYPE syntax again.
3.
data: begin of itab occurs 0,
            <fields>
            end of itab.
    data: wa like line of itab.
Here we are declaring the wa wrt internal table which is having header line and body, so we can't use TYPE here, we must go for LIKE LINE OF syntax.
4.
data: itab like vbak occurs 0 with header line.
    data: wa like line of itab
       (or)
     data: wa type vbak.
Hope it clear?
Thanks,

How can I use an IF ELSE statement and the xdoxslt: get_variable together?

First of all, I'm a big fan of this forum and I just want to thank the community for helping make the BI Publisher world a better place.
I'm trying to populate a table with a years worth of data with the column=PRODUCT and row=month of DATE. Here's the catch, not all of the months will have data. So here's where my problem is, I'm not able to use an IF ELSE statement along with a XDOXSLT:GET_VARIABLE expression so that if there's no data for that month the default value will be 0.
Can someone help me find a solution to either one of the attempts below or a completely new method? Thanks!
BP4 = numeric month value using DATE (more code to pull only month from DATE not included here)
JAN1 = PRICE if data exists, else 0
1) I tried this and it didn't work:
<?if: xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'BP4'),01 then xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'JAN1',PRICE) else xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'JAN1',0) end if?>
<?xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'JAN1')?>
<?end if?>
2) I tried this and it didn't work:
<?xdoxslt:ifelse(xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'BP4')='01',xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'JAN1',PRICE),xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'JAN1',0))?>
<?xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'JAN1')?>
<?end if?>
3) I tried this and it didn't work:
<?xdofx:if xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'BP4')='01' then xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'JAN1',PRICE) else xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'JAN1',0) end if?>
<?xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'JAN1')?>
<?end if?>

Edited by: 990965 on Feb 28, 2013 8:27 AM

let me clarify my logic, the template 1) searches for the relevant PRODUCT (in the case below, it searches for BPD which is the column in the table) 2) searches for the relevant month in DATE (which is the row in the table) 3) if data exists, get PRICE else default to 0
Variable definitions:
BP4 = numeric month value from DATE (more code to get this value not included here, but it works...)
JAN1 = set to PRICE if data exists for that month, else 0
the query is only pulling all of the existing data, so if there's no data for March then there wouldn't be a March entry in the xml. In the sample xml below, we only have data for the first two months (Jan, Feb) so that's the only data in the xml. I can't check if PRICE is null because the xml will not have any data for March.
I've read through other threads and it seems that BI Publisher can't use an IF THEN ELSE with the XDOXSLT:GET_VARIABLE. I sent the template and xml to you.
Sample XML:
<ROW>
<Name>Craig Hernandez</NAME>
<DATE>2013-01-01T00:00:00.000+08:00</DATE>
<PRICE>31</PRICE>

M or P master data table to be used in routine read statement

Hi
I update of a DSO i had a requirment for a routine to get the Attribute of a Infoobject.
So which master data table M or P table i need to use in my read statement and why
Thanks

Use M table as it it the view on time dependent(P table) and time independent(Q table) tables.
M table is view on time dependent and time independent attributes, you can see characteristic values and all the attributes for the Characteristic.
The tables that go in the view are the Master Data Table and the Time-Dependent Master Data Table. If the characteristic only has time-dependent attributes, only the time-dependent master data table goes in. If the characteristic has only non-time-dependent attributes, only the master data table goes in.

How to use wildcard in filename , in SyncRead operation in File Adapter.

Hi All,
Is this possible to use wildcard character in file name while creating file adapter for SyncRead Operation.
I used write*.txt as a file name to read. But got below error -->

Check the error stack and fix the cause of the error. Contact oracle support if error is not fixable.

You cannot defined the wildcard for the file names. But you can provide the file name dynamically if you are on soa suite 10.1.3.4 minimum. You can get information about that in this link http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12524_01/relnotes.1013/e12523/adapters.htm#CHDBBFBD

Using Wildcards in Value Help

Hi,
I have a input filed ZPERNR and i have assigend PREMN search help on this field.
I am able to search people in the organisation and it all works great until I use wildcards
When I enter SMITH in the last name in the value help it comes back with the list of people whose last name is SMITH
Problem:
When I enter SMITH* in the last name I get no results
In the SQL trace I noticed it changed my SMITH* to smith%
Not sure if there is any sap note to this issue
Any ideas?

Hi Jörg,
Yes the icon (Pattern) does appear after I enter, however I still don't get any results.
The weird thing is the value help works perfectly alright in r/3
Not sure why it is not working for me in the portal.
Thanks for your reply

Using Wildcards in Mapping Script

Hi everybody, im new in FDM and i have some doubts about mapping scripts.
I have to recreate this Hyperion Translation Rule into FDM:
ACC_SAP              tm_sap     Reverse Sign         UD4
N21099Z300     {NULL}     FALSE     CD1
D31199Z000     {NULL}     FALSE     CD1
????99     *     FALSE     CD
ACC_SAP is the source account
TM_SAP will be loaded into UD5 (as look up)
How could i manage with a like mapping?
I guess using a script but im not sure how to use wildcards within scripts, is it possible?
Another related question, in a explicit mapping, how can i manage with NULL values if i want to assign them [None] value, do i have to put NULL in th source field?
BR and thanks

Thanks KellyDGreen. With the exampl shown is as you say but what if tm_sap has wildcards?
F.i
ACC_SAP TM_SAP TARGET_CUSTOM4
999? 123? 198276
Suppose that TM_SAP has been stored in UD5. Source dimensions are different from target dimension so i have to do it via script, dont I?
