XML into one field

Hi , we have a scenario where we have to move entire source structure into one of the fields of the target structure.
Example:
Source:
item1
description
store
storedescription
price
batch
Target:
item1
store
xmlstring
we would like to do following mappings:
1. item1 in source to item1 in target
2. store in source to store in target
3. entire source structure in XML format into xmlstring in target
we reffered following blog , but couldnt map to our requirement.

Thanks,

HI
I think you need to write UDF for this. there is library from apache called XML Serializer. Below is the sample file how you achieve that using that. Use that code in your UDF.
http://www.informit.com/articles/article.asp?p=31349&seqNum=3&rl=1
Even just concatenate into one field in the target during mapping and the send the data . this could also achive your requirments. no need to go for Java mapping
thanks

                                       and SUBSTR(per2.LAST_NAME, 2, 6) not like 'some characters'
                                       and per2.EMAIL_ADDRESS           LIKE '%priddle%' )

Mapping complete input XML structure into one field on target

Hi,
I have a scenario where I need to map the complete input XML structure as it is, into one field on target side. so can we achieve this in Graphical Mapping? If yes, please share your valuable info.

Hello,
this is the java map code.just compile it and made a .zip file import it and use it Interface Mapping.

Question: map the whole source message into one field in the target.

Hi Friends,
Is there a way to populate the whole source message into one of the fields in the target message?
I am trying to do this in message mapping. Guide if this could be done in any other way or is there a way to do it in message mapping.
Waiting for your valuable guidance,
Regards,
Lakshmi

Hi Friends,
I tried to convert the source message into a string using XSLT mapping. It was successful, however i need to have the source message in XML format and not in any other format. This is because, I am mapping the source XML into a field in a WSDL. The webservice requires the entire source message be inside a field called "Request" in the WSDL (it is like XML inside another XML).
Is there any way to do this? Please suggest.. (Im not good at java programming... may be i dont know)

SQL Query -How2bring multiple results into one field using Formatted Search

Hi Everyone
i am trying to bring in the results of the field dbo.Lot_ITEM.LOT using a formatted search into a row level using the following query:
SELECT     dbo.LOT_ITEM.LOT
FROM       dbo.DLN1 INNER JOIN dbo.LOT_ITEM ON dbo.DLN1.ItemCode = dbo.LOT_ITEM.ITEM
WHERE     dbo.LOT_ITEM.ITEM=$[DLN1.ItemCode]
however the result of the dbo.Lot_ITEM.LOT field could be more then one value depending on how many lots are assigned for that item
(for example this query would be similar to assigning batch/serial numbers to an item being despatched - as you can choose multiple batches/serials depending on the quantities available and required and then move from the left to the right side of the selection window) if that makes sense!
is it possible to bring in the multiple results into one field? and how can i amend the above query to include this?
Thankyou in advance :o)

Hi Suda
Thanks for replying :o) but im not sure about the query?
just to simplify it (as the query im working with is to do with 3rd party addons) i have used the serial/batchs field instead and used standard demo database fields from SBO 2005 sp01:
SELECT     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_IntrSerial
FROM       dbo.DLN1 INNER JOIN
                dbo.ixvSerialNoFact ON dbo.DLN1.DocEntry = dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry
WHERE     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.ItemCode='g1000' and dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry = '193'
The above brings me the relevant results but when i change it to be used in a formatted search:
SELECT     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_IntrSerial
FROM       dbo.DLN1 INNER JOIN
                dbo.ixvSerialNoFact ON dbo.DLN1.DocEntry = dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry
WHERE     dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.ItemCode=$[dln1.itemcode] and dbo.ixvSerialNoFact.SRI1_BaseEntry = $[dln1.DocEntry]
i cant seem to get it to work - now this may be because the serial number is not allocated until teh record is added to the system, however when this happens i am unable to go back in and manually trigger the query as the delivery note rows cannot be selected!
i think as what im originally wanting an answer for is same as this example, im wanting to know if this is even possible?
Thanks

BI for NW04S: Concatenating multiple chars into one field in BI query

Hi,
We have BI for NW04S. We have a requirement of concatenating multiple characteristics into one field in the BI report. This single field should have the usual drill down and other olap functionalities that a single characteristic usually enjoy in a BI report.
In BI for NW04 (Not the S) this probably can be done using the table interface in WAD. However in BI7 WAD functionality are through Java.
Also can this be done using Query designer alone.
Can anybody help?
Thanks

Hi,
Can you please elaborate on your Query designer option. You can always have a variable and in the user exit can write code, but what is not clear that
1> How will you acheive the contatenation done for every row of the report in the BEX user exit variable( since it's called during the beginning of the query execution and not for all rows of the report
2> How do you transfer the char variable into a char field in the report.
Please elaborate .
Thanks

Multiple Checkbox Values Into One Field

Hopefully someone can help me with this issue I'm having.
I'm trying to save the values of multiple selected checkboxes into one field separated by commas through ADDT's Insert Transaction code. I can do this easily with DW's standard insert record wizard by using the PHP implode() function but I haven't been able to figure it out with ADDT's code.
<form>
<input type="checkbox" value="1" name="program[]" /> Program One
<input type="checkbox" value="2" name="program[]" /> Program Two
<input type="checkbox" value="3" name="program[]" /> Program Three
<input type="checkbox" value="4" name="program[]" /> Program Four
</form>
THIS IS ADDT'S CODING
$ins_quoteManager->addColumn("programs", "STRING_TYPE", "POST", "programs");
THIS WORKS VIA DREAMWEAVER'S INSERT RECORD WIZARD
Original: GetSQLValueString($_POST['programs'], "text"),
Modified: GetSQLValueString(implode(',',$_POST['programs']), "text"),
Anyone know how to modify the ADDT code with the implode function to get this to work?

Have you tried ADDT´s "comma-separated checkboxes" form control, which will also store the values into a field of your choice (and of course retrieve them from there on update record - pages) ? The only possible drawback might be, that the checkboxes can´t be defined statically, means that the array of value/label - pairs will be retrieved from another table by establishing an additional recordset.
Cheers,
Günter

Putting 7 table fields into one field with line breakes included!

Hi People
I Need to assamble 7 fields from a view, into one field with some line brakes in Reports, how do I do that???
E.g :
Field names : Name, Collection1, StreetName, StreetNo, ExtraCity, ZipCode, City
Should be put into one field called address and be displayed like this
Name
Collection1
StreetName StreetNo
ExtraCity
ZipCode City
I hope someone can help me *S
/Stig :-)

The following should give you some idea. It might depend if you run your report on Windows or Unix.
select
Name        || decode(Name, null, null, chr(13)||chr(10))||
Collection1 || decode(Collection1, null, null, chr(13)||chr(10))||
StreetName || decode(StreetName, null, null, ' '||StreetNo||chr(13)||chr(10))||
ExtraCity   || decode(ExtraCity, null, null, chr(13)||chr(10))||
ZipCode     || decode(ZipCode, null, null, ' '||City )

Joining Two Fields Into One Field for a View

I am trying to create a view based off of multiple tables.
I have all of the joins and everything done nicely and working properly.
However, when I get to this one step, that's when I start running into problems.
I just want to join (or concatenate) two fields together with a period character in between them.
For example, if I take FirstName and LastName, then I want them to become one field called Name, appearing as "JOHN.DOE"
When I try to join them together, the problem comes up with the period character.
A sample code of what I have done is here:
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'create view VIEW_LALALA
as SELECT t1.FirstName + '.' + t2.LastName as Name, t1.something as Something, t2.ooo as OOO
FROM (tableFirstNames t1 inner join tableLastNames t2 on t1.nameID = t2.nameID)
END;

cybertek23, I'd seriously reconsider doing an INSERT INTO

cause nothing but headaches in the near future. A better way might
be use each checkbox fieldname as its own column name in the dB.
