JDBC(JNDI) connectivity, varchar(max) field truncated to 255

2018-04-11T01:39:33+02:00

Hello,
I'm connecting to SQL server 2016 through JDBC .( I tested this in CR2016 and CR 2011, with jdbc drivers 6.0, 6.2 ,6.4)
When I try to insert a varchar(max) field my data is truncated to 255 characters.... Right click in the Fields Explore/ Database Fields/Show Field Type shows that the field is String(255) but it is varchar(max) in my database...

Any ideas how to display all text?

SAPUI5 Repeated xml fragment

2018-04-12T05:18:30+02:00

Hi Expert,

I'm having such requirement whereby I need to display repeated fragment view dynamically as below screen shot. When there is a scenario of 3 blocks is selected, i need to append this fragment view accordingly to the page. The question is how can I retrieve the input dynamically since I'm not providing the element id in the fragment view? The reason I'm not insert the id in the fragment view is due to the view will append dynamically and it will get duplicate id errors if I gives the element id in the fragment view.

I've tried using domfef to get the value but unfortunately I only can get the input field for name and passport number. Relationship field is using select controller and it's not under input field category. Any idea whereby I can retrieve all the inputs dynamically?

$(pageDom).find("input").each(function(index, elem)

Thanks.

Union of ADSO & Open ODS View not able to perform join (left outer) with another ADSO

2018-10-17T04:37:47+02:00

Hi All,

I've a union of ADSO1 and Open ODS in the Composite Provider with 0BPARTNER as a common field on which I'm further performing left outer join with another ADSO2 to bring some additional attributes from ADSO2 but strangely join is being performed only for the ADSO1's BPartner values & not for the Open ODS's BPARTNER values.

Alternatively I tried creating a separate CPR for Union and used that CPR for joining with ADSO2 but same problem still persists.

Can anyone point out if anything wrong with design or correction measures?

P.S. There is data in all data providers for above join scenarios.

Aggregate Demand accross multiple planning areas

2018-11-06T12:14:06+01:00

I am currently using SAPbyDesign.

I have 4 internal planning areas representing 4 DCs each with their own demand plans released.

I do not have internal production capability, all POs are written for outside vendors.

How do I roll-up demand from all 4 planning areas to one MOQ/rounding values? Right now I can bundle Purchase Requests onto 1 PO but each Purchase Request has it's own, inaccurate, MOQ. The MOQs live at the separate planning areas so this logically will be the outcome but is not the desired outcome.

How can I use MRP to roll-up all 4 planning areas to the overall MOQ but break out each location's demand on the PO?

End goal: MRP produces POs (from PRs) that total a certain MOQ/rounding value but are broken out to each location based on allocation needs.

Do I need internal production setup? Do I need a separate RP run? Can this only by done in APO/PPDS?

Multiple data sources on the same chart

2019-04-10T23:37:20+02:00

Hello,

I use Crystal Reports 2016 and need to overlay a 2019 budget line on the following chart. I understand I can change the data type on a riser if the budget was a column, but I'm unable to find a way to bring in the budget data as its own column.

I do need the month and year to be separate so management can compare the months easily. A screenshot of the chart and chart expert follow.

How can I do this? The budget information comes in from its own table.

Many thanks in advance,

Predict Customer Order - Data analysis and prediction - IDEA

2019-09-03T07:07:47+02:00

What is it : I have a business scenario where we create around 2000 sale orders a day . I am trying to develop a program/module which predicts the customer orders , analyzing the frequency of orders a customer has made in the past.

For example, a customer places an order for product "P001" every week 1000 nos, and "P002" bimonthly 500 Nos , it should predict what this customer might order the coming week.

What's the benefit ? : We have a tele-sales team who calls the customer and take their orders. If they already have this information with them , it is easy for them to get the orders . Also it helps to give offers and promotions.

What I am looking for : BRAINS

What I have : VBAK ,VBAP.

Design Guidelines for SAP CAP Reusable Data Models

2021-05-14T05:44:26+02:00

Greetings.

I am working on a project to develop an application for the field of agriculture. I am working with SAP CAP and SAP HANA DB.

In addition to the data models typical of the problem domain, I have also created a small data model of commonly used objects/concepts: Geographic Regions, Units of Measure, Periodic Dates, and other minor ones.

For this second data model (which, for simplicity, I'm going to name here as COMMON), in addition to the model definition file (CDS file), I have several store procedures written in SAP HANA SQLScript. That's all.

However, since the second model is more or less "Universal" I would like to separate it into a separate project and use it in my agriculture app., as well as being able to reuse it in later projects.

This is to raise general doubts about whether it is convenient (or a good design practice) to do what I think, and above all the best way to do it (have certain guidelines in this regard).

Particular questions:

1. Should I create a new project for my model COMMON or just create another module within my agricultural application (which follows the SAP CAP model)?

2. In case of creating another project for COMMON (the option that in principle I have thought to choose), I understand that I must use synonyms for the tables, views, store procedures, etc. Is this correct? How do you do with the CDS file (the definition of the model COMMON)? Can you also create a synonym for that? I need to be able to use the definitions in there (entities, views, and types) in the CDS models of my agriculture app. Is it possible?

3. If I put the COMMON model in another project, would it be convenient to define a UI (service module) for it or should the project only have the Database module?

Thank you in advance for any help and/or suggestions regarding these questions.

Axure: When I share my Mockup the link to the webfont appears to be generating an error

2022-01-19T11:14:14+01:00

Good morning,

I use Axure RP10 tool for my mockup but from last October I have a problem when I share my works.

When I share I use the SAP Guideline in this link https://experience.sap.com/fiori-design-web/design-stencils-for-axure-rp/#online-usage but other people can't read SAP-icons font.

I tried to use just the CSS file in the font-face section when I share but the problem remains.

In this moment I transform all icon elements in this font in images, but it isn't the best solution.

I have asked to Axure Support an help and they found that the link to the webfont appears to be generating an error.

So I wold like to ask the provider of the webfont to update their CORS settings to allow the webfont to display within my prototype.

Could someone help me?

Where I can find the provider's mail?

I remain to disposition for other required information.

Thank you

Export with Column Headers

2022-03-08T10:36:34+01:00

Hello!

I am trying to figure out a way to export from HANA with column headers in order to get rid of a step within a dashboard refresh process. Is there a script or built-in HANA function that would allow for me to do this? The save as text file method would work if this data set wasn't over 1 million rows. Appreciate any input, thanks!

Additional Information in Billing Forms

2025-03-07T04:42:14.178000+01:00

Dear Experts,

Currently we are having enhancement to billing form to add additional data that is derived from the billing header text - Customer Address Info . User expected to have a form with header section on all pages, but as checked with technical team, there's some limitation in form design tools.

These are two scenarios that we have explained to end user

Scenario 1 (please refer to the attachment)

FIXED header line items : can show header on each page, but needs to define max line counts.

Lets say if we define max 6 line items :

if user maintain only 3 lines, there will be 3 additional spaces after
if user maintain only 2 lines, there will be 4 additional spaces after

RESULTS : not acceptable by end user because theres gap/spaces/line break for < 6 lines

Scenario 2 (please refer to the attachment)

Dynamic header line items : if second page has no material item, the header section can not be shown on the form.

With this method, spaces/line break can be adjusted automatically regardless of how many additional line counts, but the consequence is if there's no line item in second page, the header can not be shown.

RESULTS : not acceptable by end user because theres no header section in second page

Need your advise on how to have all headers on each page without having to define maximum number of lines for additional text. Thank you

Role design

2025-06-03T08:27:48.531000+02:00

Hello All,

So were planning to re-design all of single roles, would really need your assistance on how to do the ff:

How to identify if the single role is still being used by the client?

What would be the best to go forward if we're going to re-create all 500 single roles into Two (2) separate businesses?

Is there a way that I can confirm/concrete evidence if a role is for a specific module (MM, FI, PO, etc.) - Aside from checking their role description, transaction codes, are there other ways?

Is it necessary to assign the value of Plant to all the roles? Or is there a reference to check this?

Thank you!
