WAD Variable screen not displaying when using a customer exit variable

Hello,
I have a query which has 3 variables, one of which is of type customer exit and gets populated with a default value.
When I run this query on the web from within BEX it works fine, however when I run it within any BI7 web template the variable screen does not pop up. Of course if I remove or change the offending customer exit variable the variable screen pops up.
I have switched the display variable check-box to on, and it still doesn't work.
Is this a 'feature' of BI7?
Many thanks
Sarah

Fixed it myself by tweaking the URL....
Added &VARIABLE_SCREEN=X to the end of the url and the variable screen now pops up. Its not an ideal solution but it works.
Anyone have any better ideas?

Module borders not displaying when using Aggregator

I am using Captivate 4. I created a TOC for both modules in a project. Then I created an Aggregator to connect them and display both TOCs.
The issue I am havving is that the individual modules have borders on all 4 sides, yet they do not display when using the aggregator. How do I correct this?
Thank you.

Lenny,
I apologize for not having an answer to your question, but I'm envious that you've successfully configured mod_jk. I've read several different versions of how to configure this, but nothing has worked so far. I wonder if you could either point me to some correct instructions on how to integrate Apache and Tomcat so I might try to duplicate your success.
Thanks in advance,
Vince

If i run the same report in RSRT i do get my variable screen. It was all find till yesterday and for some strange reason i dont get to see my variable screen.

What version are you on?
Did you try resetting personalized variables? You may have hit that by mistake, happens a lot here. Not sure that would be the case with no values entered however.

Help topics are not displaying when using Windows 7 / IE 9 / RH10

We recently upgraded our library from RH8 to RH10. Also used a trial version of RH9 in this process. Now when we compile several of the projects have issues where help topics do not display when selected in the TOC or when a link to the topic is clicked within another internal topic. It is in a continous loop in the browser (like it is trying to load). If you right-click on the topic it displays (we are currently using this as the work-around). Anyone else having this problem?? I saw something similiar for Windows8/IE10, but the fix does not apply here (http://forums.adobe.com/message/5138909#5138909#5138909).

Hi,
I (April) apologize I have been OOO and have not been able to respond to your replies.
Let’s start over.
We have an issue where help topics do not display when selected in the TOC or when a link to the topic is clicked within another internal topic. It is in a continous loop in the browser (flickering like it is trying to load). If you right-click on the topic it displays (we are currently using this as the work-around).
We use Windows 7, IE9 and RH10 for all our projects. (Recently upgraded from RH8 to RH10)
Turns out the problem is not isolated. I have run across it in at least one other project, which leads me to think it also occurs in others.
"Does this only occur when the help is called from your software? Is it OK if you double click the start page?"
          No. I it ALSO occurs when launched from the start page.
Have you tried deleting the CPD file and reopening Rh and the project?
          Yes, without success.
Are you using any redirects?
          Per (Adrienne), “I am not using any redirects. I encounter this issue only in IE. If I paste the .htm into a Firefox browser, the help displays as it should.”
          I will add that the project also displays incorrectly in Google Chrome.
Thanks April

Variable Screen not display in Web

Hi all
When i execute the Query ZBP02_Q001 in Web, the Variable Input Screen of the Query is not display first,but display the content of the ZBP02_Q001 directly in the Web. All of the Varibale is not mandatory;
i am using BI 7.0;
Anyone can give a help!
Thanks in advance.

Hi Cao,
May be your infoobject are holding constants, which led to direct execution without the selection screen.
Inorder to get the selection screen, select the infoobject and make its settings as optional and it will be displayed in your selection screen.
So whenever you use optional for an infoobject, that specific infoobject alone will appear on the selection screen.

Variable Screen not displaying correctly

Our BW install is BI 7.0, with BEx still in the BI 3.5. We do not have any web-based reporting. We have deployed the SAP 7.20 GUI with front-end patch 4. One office is testing the installation with Win 7, Office 2010. When executing a workbook from BEx Browser it takes a long time for Excel to initialize and then when the variable screen does appear there are missing descriptions. A mouse over or a check of the variables will repaint that screen and populate the missing descriptions.
Has anyone experienced this issue? I have tried to recreate this issue, but I have not been successful. The installation has been redone several times and testing is consistent.
Thank you for your time.
Karen

Karen,
Thank you for your reply. The installation of the GUI was on a PC that was completely clean. Since this is in a test environment, the IT office had that luxury. They did a fresh install of MS Office and then the SAP GUI. We ran the installation check earlier today and are reviewing the results to determine why this particual install is not working.
Thanks!
Karen

Some Text Messages do not display when using large font on iphone

When using increased font size (accessability function) on iphone some text messages will not display. The iphone just seems to lock up. If normal font size is used text massage displays with out any issue. When font size is increased, text message will not display again.

Hi Peter
Actually, Captivate does have an essentially unlimited number
of undo levels. But that number may appear to be different. The
number of levels starts when you begin editing the project. If you
close and re-open a project, that starts the undo process over.
I've tested and I gave up after about 280 or so undos.
Where Captivate doesn't allow an undo, it normally warns you
with a rather catastrophic looking dialog.
Cheers... Rick

Screen not displayed correctly using InteractiveViewer

I have created a report that prompts the User for Start and End dates. When the Prompt dialogue box is displayed using interactiveViewer the images are not displayed correctly.
Does anybody have a fix for this problem ??
Example attached.
Ron Smith

My guess is that the toolbars don't show up when you view the reports either.
There should be a virtual directory called 'crystalreportviewers' on your webserver. This is where you will find all the images supplied by the viewer.
Right click on the image that is having problems and select properties. This should give you location of the viewer.
You should be able to trouble shoot this way be comparing the actual path with the real path of the missing images.
Hopefully this will help.

HTML tags not displayed when using Data Template

Hi All...
I'm developing a BI Publisher report in which one of the columns is a clob data type. I'm using an xsl stylesheet to format the data present in the clob column.
I've developed the report using data template as the data set. The problem is the clob column which has the HTML tags where not displayed properly...for example
the tag starting with
<
is replaced with
& lt;
I did a couple of searches in this forum and in tim's blog but couldn't find a proper solution...

I came to know that data template cannot generate proper HTML tags for release 10.1.3.2. Is there any work around way to get the proper HTML tags when data template is used as a data set?

Issue could be with the data that is selected in the other environment. It generally happens that the ALV will not give the same results as in the DEV in the other systems.
Possible errors could be the control break statements in the loop...endloop block. validate the correctness of the control break stmts if any.

Help topics are not displaying when using Windows 8/IE 10

I have a WebHelp system created in RoboHelp 7. When opening that Help from our application using Windows 8 with Internet Explorer 10 and allowing blocked content, the Help topics do not display in the right pane when clicking a topic from the Contents in the left pane. Below are the steps:
1. Open the Help system from the Help menu within the application.
2. The Allow Blocked Content displays and I allow it.
3. The Help opens and if I click a topic from the TOC in the left pane, the topic doesn't display in the right pane.
A workaround we found was to widen the left pane and the topic then displays. Also, if you don't allow blocked content, this issue doesn't happen. However, I need to allow blocked content in order for PDFs within the Help to open properly and also because the Search doesn't display without allowing blocked content.
We also tested this with a Help system that was created using Robohelp 9 and have the same issue. I'm wondering if RoboHelp 10 would solve this problem.
Does anyone know if IE 10 requires Help systems to be created in RoboHelp 10 to work properly, at least when allowing blocked content?

It seems to be time for the old divide and conquer approach.
Zip up the project so you have a copy that cannot accidentally be opened and worked on. That gives you a copy that you can safely revert to later if needed. Save the zip file somewhere safe.
Then create another copy of the project so that you have two copies that can be worked on.
Open Copy 1 and delete half the topics. Ignore any broken links reported. Generate the help from that copy.
Open Copy 2 and delete the other half of the topics. Generate the help from that copy.
It should be the case that one copy is now OK and one still has the problem.
Trash the good copy and then create a second copy of the copy with the problem.
Repeat the process until you have located whatever is causing the problem.
The process takes less time than you might think.

Images not displaying when using Mod_JK

Has anyone had this problem with any success?
platform:
Windows 2000 Professional
Jakarta Tomcat 4.1.3
Apache 2.0.039
Mod_jk connector
My_Sql 4.0.1
I have a successful connection between Tomcat and Apache via the mod_jk module.
All JSP's are displaying with the appropriate data from MySql.
My problem is that no images will display when I connect through Apache, via port 80.
When I connect to Tomcat direct through port 8080, everything displays properly including images.
Currently, I am running my application under Tomcat's webapp subdirectory.
Is there something that I perhaps not did properly configure with Apache's http.conf file or with
server.xml?
Any suggestions or answers would certainly be appreciated.
Thanks,
Lenny Sorey

Presentation Variable Value not passing when used in Column Formula.

Hello Gurus:
Please help me with my requirement.
We are trying to show a data backout in report, for example.
For a Product Group Code of 2435 which belongs to Report Line C059 has a Sales Amount of $4,266.90 and in report we want the same Sales Amount of $4,266.90 to be shown as -$4,266.90 (Negative) under a Report Line C080.
So in a report there should be same Sales Dollars as Positive for C059 (from Source) and Negative Sales Amount for C080 (Condition to be applied in Report).
Solution I Tried
I tried to create a Presentation Variable (SQL- Which would fetch me Sales Dollars for Product Group Code 2453) which returns with $4266.90 and then applied it in Answers in Logic (Case when Report Line = C080 then @{Presentation Variable}*-1 Else Sales Dollars END).
Issue I am facing:
Presentation Variable is coming as 0 and if i give any Format (Default Value) it shows the same default value in report. I checked the SQL i used and even when I Preview the Variable its showing me $4,266.90, but not in report.
Please let me know a way to get this Presentation Variable value into my reports.
Also please let me know if i can achieve this requirement in any other way.

Thanks for your reply Paul. But there is no Invoiced Amount for Report Line - 'C080' from source. Invoiced amount of C059 should show as -ve Invoiced amount for CO80.
In a report C059 should show +ve Sales Dollars and C080 should show same amount as -Ve Sales Dollars.

Variable Substitution not working when using ABAP mapping

Hi all,
I am doing an IDoc to File scenario.
Due to some complex mapping requirements, i had to use ABAP mapping for IDoc to File ( IDoc : SHPMNT05)
There is also one more requirement where in i need to generate the receiver filename dynamically
i.e the filename is of the form :
GW-XYZ-DD/MM/YYYY.csv
Where
XYZ is the Shipment number (E1EDT20- TKNUM)
DD/MM/YYYY is the IDOC creation date in ECC (EDIDC-CREDAT)
so i used the variable substitution option in receiver file adapter.
But its not working.
Is there any limitation for using the variable Substitution, doesnt variable substitution work in case of ABAP mapping?
Regards,
Loveena.

Hi,
u written ABAP mapping program to get the file name in the required format ,
is it rt?
when u test it at message mapping(including ABAP map program)
u get the the required format of file name in the one of target filed.
if that was fine, please check the variable substituiton parameters at receiver file adapter.
i mean, are u maintain variable name and refernece.
u have to specify the payload information.
warm regards
mahesh.

Cc text not displaying when using full motion recording

Hello everyone,
I wanted to find out if anyone has experienced a problem with
cc text not being displayed on slides with full motion recording.
I have added and sync'd the cc text on a slide that has full
motion recording. When publishing the file, no cc text appears in
the the published file.
Is there a workaround or a setting that I need to check to
ensure that the cctext shows up?
Any information which anyone can provide would be greatly
appreciated.
Sherry

Hi Sherry,
I'm having the same problem you were last year! Just wondered if you were able to find a workaround.
I have a full motion page with audio embedded in it (meaning that the audio does not show up as its own item in the timeline view). When I open the Advanced Audio Management dialog box, I'm not able to add a caption because CP4 doesn't think there's sound on this slide. (see attached screen grab -- the slide in question is slide 9. You see that the caption button is greyed out).
I've really hit a wall on this one today. I tried deleting the audio and re-adding it from the library, but it doesn't get added as an independent object in the timeline box; it just gloms onto the "captured animation" object.
Maybe it's simply not possible to have a closed caption on a FMR page? That doesn't seem right though.
Thanks, all.
Janet
