Variable in Visual Composer NW2004s

I new in Visual Composer.
I read the "How To…Work with Variables in SAP NetWeaver Visual Composer", but I have a problem with the drop-down list. I following step by step the solution, using the dynamic list but when I run the model I find the drop-down empty.
Someone works with drop-down list with dynamic list?
How do I configure the assigned value in output and input port?
Thank you
EC

Hi Elena,
did you check your data service, if it works (you can do this at design time).
I suggest you to write an own RFC for getting the key and text of the infoobject.
You can write one RFC which will work for all infoobjects.
For writing RFCs and resolve issues have a look into my blogs here:

  • Value Help for Date inverval in Variable Form in Visual Composer

    Hi all,
    I have created a variable form which has Date interval with value help as one of the parameters.
    when i click on the value help and select any date interval then it is displayed as say '20081015:20090101' but when i submit this value i get an error "INVALID_VARIABLE_VALUES".
    this variable is working fine when i manually enter the interval as '10/15/2008:01/01/2009'.
    is there any way where we can input the date interval value as '10/15/2008:01/01/2009' using the value help.
    any help is highly appreciated.
    regards,
    RK,.

    Hi Ramakrishna,
    Value help is considered as a popup iview in visual composer. You can change the fields in popup iview like normal iview. Drill down the popup iview of the value help and change the date format using DSTR function.
    Try the below link for change the date format.

  • Visual Composer 7.0 Setup/Configuration (with NW2004s SP7)

    Hi all,
    I've installed a NW2004s Portal with SP7. From my understanding, the SCA-files for VC are included in the installation/Support Package (I saw several VC*** files in SDM).
    But I can't start/access Visual Composer in my browser.
    I tried a URL like that: http://myserver.domain.com/vcserver
    I got an error from WebAS: "The requested resource does not exist." (Errorpage 404) Besides that I added two roles roles in portal to my user: GUIMRole and VCRole.
    So my questions are:
    - Do I have to install something else, like with VC 6.0 on the server, to use the VC? And if, where can I get it?
    (Note: I had installed the old release on that server before, so I already have MS SQL Server and MS XML Parser and the Adobe Software.)
    - Does anybody know which installationsteps/configurationsteps I'm missing?
    - Are there any installationguides available for release 7.0, cause I couldn't find some in servicemarketplace and SAP-Help?
    (I saw the post from Siddharth J Bhatt "Visual Composer 7.0 installation" but unfortunatelly that didn't help me.)
    Thank you in advance for any tips / hints.
    Kind regards,
    Annike

    Installing VC 7.0
    *I myself have only done a dry run for this*
    The user would need to download all of those files.  Make sure to download all the files available..So, every version for each file.  The reason JSPM will only install the most current version, and the user doesn't have to worry about matching files with versions etc etc.
    1. Download all the files.
    2. Place them in the EPS inbox.
    3. Log into JSPM using SDM password.
    4. Select New Deployment or Business Package.
    5. The other options will not work, i.e. the files will not show up in the next window.
    6. Makesure that the version is the most latest/current.
    7. Proceed with install.
    This is essentially a cheat sheet for installing those components..makesure that you install all of them at the same time.
    Also, make sure that your Support Pack level is the most recent (SP 7 should work)
    Hopefully this works.

  • How to write plan data into Transactional Cube from Visual Composer ?

    Dear experts,
    Visual Composer is very powerfull to build a 'nice-looking' web-report (I think is much better than Web Application Designer in term of freely position the chart/graph/table/selection parameter in anywhere we like. We can't have this flexibility in WAD) plus it also has strong integration to R/3 for posting the  transactions via RFC-Enabled Function Module (such as changing customer credit limit, approve PO, approve Sales Order, etc), so that the R/3 user won't even have to know the TrxCode.
    In addition to this, I just wondering if VC also capable to write plan data into transactional cube via Write-Enable Query. We can simply insert a BW Query into VC as planning layout (set the edit-mode to "editable") plus having some Wizards to make it more user-friendly and self-explanatory for the users.
    But I am not sure how to save the changes back to transactional cube from VC.
    Could anyone please kindly advise how to achieve this.
    "Seeing is believing" is always my learning method, so I would appreciate some "actioanable" explanation or hints.
    Many thanks,
    Sen

    Hi Sen,
    As far as I know, it's not possible to write data into transactional cubes directly from a table in Visual Composer through standar method, but it's possible to integrate a WAD with your input ready query into a URL element in VC (You can fill entry variables in VC and call WAD dinamically), so it's possible to create a planning application in VC calling dinamically WAD's.
    Another way to interact through VC is creating button objects that calls planning sequences (with BAPI calling RSPLS_PLSEQ_EXECUTE). Also can fill variables in VC and pass them to sequence.
    Regards,
    Enrique

    I wasn't expecting to have an X11 server running to run flash applications.
    Any ideas on this one?

    Note 886209 appears to be the solution.
    You need to configure the flex compiler such that it knows that it's running on a headless server.

  • Passing a range of dates from Visual Composer 7.0 to Bex Analyzer

    Dear Experts,
             I created a button in my Visual Composer model that has the following settings:
    System action:  Hyperlink
    Apply to:  Self
    Hyperlink address:  "...QUERY=BMMSEG_C01_SAS_Q0001&BI_COMMAND_1-BI_COMMAND_TYPE=SET_SELECTION_STATE&BI_COMMAND_1-TARGET_DATA_PROVIDER_REF_LIST-TARGET_DATA_PROVIDER_REF_1=DP_1&BI_COMMAND_1-CHARACTERISTICS_SELECTIONS-CHARACTERISTIC_SELECTIONS_1-CHARACTERISTIC=MBUDAT&BI_COMMAND_1-CHARACTERISTICS_SELECTIONS-CHARACTERISTIC_SELECTIONS_1-SELECTIONS-SELECTION_1-SELECTION_INPUT_STRING=08/22/2006;08/28/2006"
            Basically, what I need is to pass a range of dates from Visual Composer to Bex Analyzer on the characteristic "MBUDAT".  However, it only brings back the data with those specific dates, not the range.  
          I don't think this is the correct syntax to pass in a range value:  08/22/2006;08/28/2006  Please advise how should I do it. 
    Thank you in advance,
    Kevin

    Hi J GOEL,
           Thank you for your quick response.  I created a date range variable ZPSTDAT, and then I passed in the oncatenated value to my Bex query (for this example, let says the From date is 08/22/2006, and the To date is 08/28/2006 ).
          Here's what I passed in into the url:
    ...QUERY= BMMSEG_C01_SAS_Q0001
    &#38;BI_COMMAND_1-BI_COMMAND_TYPE=SET_SELECTION_STATE
    &#38;BI_COMMAND_1-TARGET_DATA_PROVIDER_REF_LIST-TARGET_DATA_PROVIDER_REF_1=DP_1
    &#38;BI_COMMAND_1-CHARACTERISTICS_SELECTIONS-CHARACTERISTIC_SELECTIONS_1-CHARACTERISTIC= ZPSTDAT
    &#38;BI_COMMAND_1-CHARACTERISTICS_SELECTIONS-CHARACTERISTIC_SELECTIONS_1-SELECTIONS-SELECTION_1-SELECTION_INPUT_STRING= 08/22/2006:08/28/2006
       However, it returns all the records, so it seems like it doesn't even accept the range value that I passed into the Bex.  Do you mind to please show me the url you have that pass in the date range.  I just need to see the date range part, not the entire url.
    Thanks,
    Kevin

  • Creating TabStrip control using visual composer

    Hi,
    I am NW04 version for Visual Composer. I want to create a TabStrip control on which I want to show two table from a RFC. Is there any facility available to create this like NW2004s. I found from some posts that NW04 verson doesn't have capabilities to create listbox. Or is there any patches available and after applying we will get the functionality??? Or can I install VC for NW2004s and it will be compatible with EP 6.0??
    Please suggest.
    Thanks,
    SA.

    Use layers and set the correpsonding property. Tabstrip is one of the options in 2004.

  • Three questions about visual composer?

    Hi all,
    1. what is the relationship between "visual composer and "visual composer BI kit"? what else elements do we need to add on top of visual composer in order to make visual composer BI kit?
    2. If we only do visual composer, the only thing we can't accomplish is the BI query wizard in visual compuser menu, right?
    3. After creating backend SAP BW system connection via BI JAVA CONNECTOR, why do we still need to create backend SAP BW system connection via SAP BI CONNECTOR?
    I went through Scott Cairncross' PDF file "Know how network call SAP Visual Composer & BI kit" and have the three questions above.
    George

    ad 1) BI Kit is a kind of plugin to VC (like the plugins in Eclipse). Today VC and BI Kit are shipped together. Once you have VC, you also have the BI Kit.
    ad 2) BI Kit offers:
    - connectivity to JDBC, ODBO, XMLA, SAP Query and SAP BI directly
    - BI Integration Wizard (to create models in a wizard style)
    - MDX, SQL Editors
    ad 3) The "direct" BI connection uses RFC-calls to BI and offers you more features, like Variables, Queries, query-views, infoobjects, favourites, history, URL port, etc. You can also connect to a SAP BI system via the XMLA-connector. A relational connector (like it is done in the portal) would only give you access to masterdata (infoobjects), but not infocube data.

  • Loading Visual Composer....

    Hi
    I am trying to open Visual Composer in browser, after proper authentication, the browser stuck up at "Loading Visual Composer....", however nothing shows up...it is absolutely blank screen with empty two frames.
    Just to give you little background, I have installed it with NW2004s. And also I have added my local domain in trusted zones in IE, however as I have firefox as my default browser, http://localhost:50100/VC/default.jsp always open up in firefox browser, so I don't know if the adding local domain to IE trusted zone would help in firefox.
    I will really appreciate any help on this.
    And thanking all of you in advance

    Thanks,
    I tried to make my internet explorer as default (after going to Tool->Internet Option->Prog-->Set the Internet Explorer as default.
    However, inspite of that still VC would open in Firefox. Even if I copy and paste the URL for VC in IE, the system would open new windows in Firefox and IE will be just empty.....
    I uninstalled the Firefox, and now when I run in IE, the message I get that Application is not found......!!
    Another input is that when I installed NW2004s, IE7 and Firefox were already installed. However after NW2004s, installation I uninstall IE 7 (because of some issue in E. Portal) and now I uninstalled Firefox, and I am getting the message "Application Not Found" .......Does it mean that NW2004s keeps references to different type browsers at the time of it's installation. And incase you change the browsers (the way I did), I might have to set/reset/refresh the entries either in config or in Visual Administration.
    Any tip/feedback will be highly appreciated.
    PS: I re-started the J2EE engine,after I uninstalled browser.

  • CPM vs Visual Composer

    Hi,
    We have recently done our technical upgrade to NW2004S. We are currently using SEM- CPM for management cockpits, wanted to check if we should be migrating our cockpits to use Visual Composer during our Functional Upgrade. What are the pros and cons for doing this.
    Thanks
    Hemant

    Visual Composer is used for totally different purpose rather like
    users can create more user-friendly, powerful analytical applications such as executive dashboards
    Visual Composer 7.0 now connects to SAP NetWeaver BI via a Remote Function Call (RFC) rather than a Web service connection. The resulting communication between the portal and SAP NetWeaver BI works faster, especially in cases of large query results.
    <b>Users can try out, deploy, or simulate a model in runtime, and then go back to the Storyboard (drawing board) to correct and tweak.</b>  this functionality is not available in any tools as such currently.
    Demo--
