Webi tools within BO Edge R2 Standard

Hi, We have Business Objects Edge R2 - Standard version with annual support subscription. We want to create and publish Webi documents and the only tool available to us is the web based webi builder, accessible via Infoview.
Does BO Edge standard includes desktop based Webi editor?
My understanding was that it does but I can find it on our system. If its part of the license how can I download it from the SAP support site? (as we don't have access to the media).
Regards.
Mohit.

In R2 you would need to use deski for a client tool. In Edge 3 you should have the WRC (webi Rich Client).
Regards,
Tim

Script Needed to work with "Save for Web" Tool

I am looking to compress the JPG image files using the Save for Web tool within Photoshop CS2. As you know, this tool yields better results in image quality and file size than the standard Photoshop Save As command.
To this end, I would like to batch process multiple images within multiple sub-folders. Unfortunately, I havent found a process that will allow the use of the Save for Web JPG compression, batch process the JPG files within a sub-folder structure and re-write the images to the same folder.
What I have managed to accomplish up to this point, is create a Photoshop Action incorporating the Save for Web tool. However, the Save for Web menu always prompts to save a file to a specified folder. This seems to be the Catch-22 to the batch processing capabilities. When using Photoshops batch processing feature with this Action, and also enabling include all sub-folders, all the resulting files created are always saved to one specified folder.
I need a script (perhaps Java or Visual Basic) which will run in Photoshop, and allow the use the Save for Web tool (JPG High, Quality 60, Optimized), batch process a series of images contained within a sub-folder structure and then re-write the image files to the same location. Can anyone help with this?

The files must be very large.
On my machine
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.01GHz 1GB Ram
It failed with an uncompressed file 347.6MB (40.9MB on Hard Disc) with not enough memory.
It managed to do a 277.4MB uncompressed file (34.3MB) with no problem although it was slow.
With such large files it might be betted to just do a folder at a time so there are two new vars that you can alter.
MAXJPGSIZE this is the size of the file on the Hard Drive.
SUBFOLDERS setting this to true will include subfolders and false will only process the selected folder.
Paul.
//GLOBAL vars, amend values to suit.
//Maximum size of file in Megabytes to process (This is the file size on the Hard Drive)
MAXJPGSIZE = 34;
// "true" = include subfolders - "false" do not include subfolders
SUBFOLDERS = true;
var imageFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Select the folder with JPGs to process");
if (imageFolder != null) processFolder(imageFolder);
function processFolder(folder) {
    var fileList = folder.getFiles()
     for (var i = 0; i < fileList.length; i++) {
        var file = fileList[i];
if (file instanceof File && file.name.match(/\.jpg$/i)) {
     if((file.length/1024/1024).toFixed(0) < MAXJPGSIZE +1){
              open(file);
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var strtRulerUnits = app.preferences.rulerUnits;
var strtTypeUnits = app.preferences.typeUnits;
app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS;
app.preferences.typeUnits = TypeUnits.PIXELS;
var saveFile = new File(decodeURI(activeDocument.fullName.fsName));
saveFile.remove();
SaveForWeb(saveFile,60);
app.activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);
app.purge(PurgeTarget.ALLCACHES);
$.gc();
app.preferences.rulerUnits = strtRulerUnits;
app.preferences.typeUnits = strtTypeUnits;
} else
if (file instanceof Folder && SUBFOLDERS) {
       processFolder(file);
function SaveForWeb(saveFile,jpegQuality) {
var sfwOptions = new ExportOptionsSaveForWeb();
   sfwOptions.format = SaveDocumentType.JPEG;
   sfwOptions.includeProfile = false;
   sfwOptions.interlaced = 0;

   sfwOptions.quality = jpegQuality;
app.activeDocument.exportDocument(saveFile, ExportType.SAVEFORWEB, sfwOptions);

Service Orders not displayed in Web Tools

Hello everyone,
We are creating Service Type Orders within B1 and they are syncing over to Web Tools just fine, however they are not displayed on the Order History page for the user. Is that 'as designed'? I know there is no traditional information that can be displayed about these, but was just curious how these should be viewed if at all within WebTools or if I should create custom development for this. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. FYI, we are using Web Tools 2007 PL 01.
Thanks,
Kristen

Hi Bryce,
I am talking about orders of type 'Service' versus 'Item'. So, it is just a Service Order, for a dollar amount to a G/L Account, rather than having a list of items. These are shown in the Web Tools tables, but are not displayed to the user. Just curious if they were designed to or not. Please let me know if that makes sense.
Thanks,
Kristen

Report builder in Web Tools

Does anyone know where I can find documentation on the Report Builder in Web Tools?
I've already looked at the documentation and e-learning but they do not seem to cover this topic.
Regards,
Douglas

In this post here:
[Re: How to find out list of users who has logged into webtools|Re: How to find out list of users who has logged into webtools]
I give an example of creating a report to see who has logged in.
Creating reports usually follows this methodology:
1) Enter in your query on the queries tab and give the section a name
2) On the Template screen, make sure the "section name =" tag matches up with one of your queries.
3) To display variables in your template you can use CAST in your SQL query and then it will be available as %%CastVariable%% or you can also use column titles in the same way %%ColumnName%%
4) The rest of the formatting is in standard HTML
Hope this helps some, I'll keep looking for good examples.

Web Tools Payment terms default

Hello experts,
I have set my default Payment terms to 3 payments for all customers. First payment right away at 50% followed by 25% the next month, and 25% third month. Will webtools authorize the total amount when the order is processed? If so how can i configure web tools to handle this sort of payment.
Thank you!
Points will be awarded accordingly.

Web tools is not a payment processor or an automated payment system(just a web site that synchs with b1) so within the scope of the product your options are quite limited. Web tools only communicates with a payment gateway when the merchant places an internal order for a customer or the customer places the order themselves.
I can't see how this would work. The shopper has to initiate the authorization of funds and banks only typically hold an authorization for a week or so, certainly not 3 months. So if you did an authorization for the entire amount, but only captured 50% the first month the authorization for the entire amount would expire by the time you went to capture the remaining amounts.
Maybe I'm missing something?

Any problems with Web Tool Project (WTP)?

Hi
The Web Tool Project has just been released.
http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/
Has anyone tried installing webtool and Nitrox together and if there are
any conflict between the two?
I have not installed it myself but would like to get feedback from this
group if any one has made the attempt.
Thanks!

Hi all
The first usual suspect to check is to ensure your style sheet is properly attached and being used. Following that, double check to ensure there aren't any inline styles that may be overriding what the external or linked CSS specifies. I'd be doubtful that's the case, however, as it would seem that you are only noticing a difference in output. If you had inline styling you would see it on the source side as well.
Cheers... Rick

Credit Card Processing With Web Tools

If you have web tools installed with standard SAP B1, can you take a web credit card order and only authorize it on the web side and then later complete the credit card transaction at shipping time? If so, can someone point me in the right direction regarding the settings on both sides and their processes?

Embedding Video within Adobe Edge

Hi
I am trying to embed a video within Adobe Edge Animate. We had a solution which allowed us to place a video within a page and then click the video to expand to full screen. We have tried to use the code again but now that iOS6 has been installed the aniation crashes when the expand to full screen is clciked on the player.
Does anyone know/have an edge example they can share
Thanks in advance
Andrew

You cant.
Emails are not the web and will never handle flash, scripting, videos etc.
Other platforms will not do this either because its not a system feature, it is to do with how emails work.
What you can do is have an image which links to a video on the web/page with video so people an view that.

Error while installing web tools.

I am currently trying to install E-Commerce and Web CRM on a Windows Vista desktop PC, that we are going to use as a Demo PC for potential customers. It is just a demo, so everything is being installed locally on the Demo PC. I run into an error while installing the Web Tools
After the Default Install and before I precede to the Advanced install, I browse to - localhost/B1webtools - and rather than load up the webtools license key request page, I am getting the following error.
HTTP Error 404.17 - Not Found
The requested content appears to be script and will not be served by the static file handler.
I didn't run into any errors during the default install, and it appeared to function just right.
Does anyone know what would cause this error???

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Okay so I changed my Application pool and it solved that error. Now I'm able to get the page that has a link to the request license page, but when I click on that link it gives me this error:

How to setup Web Proxy within Server Admin utility?

Hi. We currenlty use the Web function within the Server Admin utility for all our web hosting applications running on Snow Leopard server. Recently we had a vendor create a website application which needs a proxy setup in order work. According to them, we need a proxy to 127.0.0.1:8000 for the site. At the moment, they manually edited the .config file for the website to edit the proxy settings which consequently caused the Web function within Server Admin to stop functioning properly as I found a website stating that if a config file is manually edited outside of the Server Admin, the Web function will not function properly. The error message I got was "Uncaught exception raised in Web client-side plugin".
The .config file which was manually edited is as such:
<VirtualHost **.**.**.***:**>
    ServerAdmin [email protected]
    ServerName demo.segmentthis.com
    ServerAlias demo.segmentthis.com
    ProxyRequests off
    <Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
    </Proxy>
    <Location />
ProxyPass http://localhost:8000/
ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:8000/
    </Location>
</VirtualHost>
I supposed my question is, is there a way to edit the proxy within the Web function of Server Admin instead of manually editing the config file?
I hope that made some sense but if not, please let me know and I will try to elaborate a bit more.
Thank you very much for your help!

Your question here appears related to or a continuation of this previous question — is this the case?
Based on the previous posting, whatever information you're receiving from the vendor support folks appears rather garbled or confused, particularly based on that "The vendor mentioned that we need to route the DNS and get it working (forwarded) on port 80 and I'd tend to avoid them." comment over there.
I'd ask the vendor for documentation and details (as on its face, a requirement for this proxy seems, well, somewhat questionable), but yes, you're probably in the Apache config files here, and probably using overrides and .htaccess if the site is low-volume, as that'll keep the changes isolated for testing.
Out of curiousity, is this proxy project part of an attempt to get this package to accessible, but without the vendor actually having the package running on port 80? (Got a pointer to the package? We can check the docs, and see if we can translate the installation requirements into something useful on OS X Server.)
Are you running 10.5 or 10.6? Both are pretty old releases.

Question about AXF Task List Web Tool

On the Task List Web Tool, i want to display the comments oan each task on this page as another column. I'm running the 10g version on the AXF application. I looked at the configuration guide for the 10g and i dont see any details on how to do this. However the Comments are display on the bottom of the TasViewer Web Tool page.
This is slowing down the processing of invoice for customers. So i reviewed the 11g it looks like a possiblilty to do this just by configurations in the AXF metdata table but in the 10g version that i;m running i dont have this table. Can you me in a display on how to configure the comments to show on the Task List Web Tool

Exposing a Form-Driven Web Application within a Portlet

Hi All,
I'm having a bit of a problem exposing a form-driven Web-Application within a portlet window.
The web-application I'm working with utilizes the Oracle XSQL servlet and is basically a collection of .XSQL pages which are formatted using .XSL stylesheets that produce output HTML for the client.
The application contains hyperlinks for navigation, but is largely Form driven.
The application has already been deployed into an Oracle Application Server 10g container as a J2EE object(.ear file), and is fully functional and accessible over the web.
In order to expose this application thru a Portlet window I utilized the Url-based provider services that come with the Oracle PDK. This allowed me to set up a simple URL-based provider for the site without any coding whatsoever. I also included inline rendering declarations to force the application response to be rendered within the Portlet window.
This setup works fine when only hyperlinks are used to navigate thru the application, however, Forms do not appear to work with this setup. Everytime a form is submitted, the data is posted to the Portlet which fails to pass it thru to the underlying web application. Instead the Action="somepage.xsql" parameter is appended to the URL of the Portal itself thus returning a "page not found",etc... error.
After much OTN searching I have found that the PDK 10.1.2 URL services package does not support Forms for inline rendering. Thus this solution comes close but falls short of what I need.
I was wondering if anyone can point me to a solution that would:
1) allow me to display the entire web application within a Portlet window (app only outputs HTML & some client-side javascript, but takes POST requests to the XSQL Servlet)
2) without modifying it's current Form-driven interface, or any of the application's underlying code for that matter,
3) and without having to resort to java coding the Portlet interface.
The URL-Based Provider setup is almost perfect, I just need to find a way to allow forms to pass thru to the underlying application so that it's response can be rendered correctly.
Current Setup:
Oracle Application Server (Portal & Wireless) 10.1.2g
J2EE with OC4J_containers.
Oracle XSQL Servlet (ver 10)
Windows 2000 OS

I tried that, the default "Base URL" provides the "Display Option" attribute but only gives me these 2 options:
- Full browse window link
- New browser window link
I have also tried other items that use "Base URL" (Simple URL, UrlItem, URL) and are all the same thing. The only items I could find (relevant to this need) and provide the option "Item displayed in page area" were:
- "Page link" item
- "External Application" portlet
I even created a fresh Instant Portal to recreate the defaults and add the URL item again, but nothing :(

Consuming a web service within a repository service

Is it possible to consume a web service within a custom KM repository service ? If so, please provide an overview of how I might accomplish this within the NWDS.
Thanks!

Hi David,
Two answers:
(a) Yes, of course this is possible, there is no technical restriction. For your convenience, you can create a portal service from a WSDL file, see https://fortress.wa.gov/dop/portal/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portal.pdk.util.developmenttools/docs/newportalservicefromwsdl.html for details (not really up to date, but in case of questions, also check http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/df/a08340d990ce62e10000000a155106/frameset.htm and around). This way, you can access the portal service as a proxy to the webservice and have the WS-implementation seperated.
(b) Consider performance impacts!!! Depending on the event you are listening to, this can very easily lead to serious problems. At least, consider caching possibilities...
Hope it helps
Detlev
