POWL tab tooltip

[Former Member]

Hi ,

Each POWL query turns to the tab on the screen.

Description of query defined in POWL_QUERY transaction turns to the name of tab.

Each tab has its tooltip.

Text of the tooltip is the following: "tab_name (0) for Object Type: tab_name"

How the text of this tooltip can be changed ?

Thanks,

Oleg

Text of the tooltip is the following: "tab_name (0) for Object Type: tab_name"

Try giving the description of your Query and Powl type as is required.

Use transaction POWL_TYPE to change the description of your powl type and

Transaction POWL_QUERY to change the description of your query.

In your case tab_name (0) is Query description and Object Type: tab_name is your powl type description

Please assign the description of both.

Hi,

Thanks Saurav,

So the only way to change the tooltip is by changing description fields in POWL_QUERY and POWL_TYPE transactions.

I want to be sure that we don't have way to set custom text in tooltip of tab's names.

Thanks,

Oleg.

Hi,

I only know this way of giving tooltip in which description is changed.

Here you could also translate the same via Go To - Translation.

Any other method i havent figured out yet.

Hi Rohit, all,

Rohit, thanks for your proposal - as far as I can see this report deletes from tables powl_act_query and powl_query.

I can agree that powl_act_query contains some kind of cached data and deleted it, but powl_query seems to be different story.

However, I checked in powl_query that the description is properly internationalized and the descriptions are well shown in different login languages.

Deletion from powl_act_query did not help, so if you have some other ideas they will be really really appreciated,

Thanks in advance

Hi guys,

I've translated both the table entries in POWL_QUERY_T and POWL_TYPE_T and actually can see the translations in

tcodes powl_query and powl_type. The really strange thing is that only one of my POWL tabs is really translated.

The others are still staying in English and their tooltips are half in English, half in Italian (the current portal language) e.g. "My Notifications (63) per Tipo oggetto: I miei Avvisi."

So, it barely means the type translation is loaded OK, but query translation is not loaded correctly.

Do you have any ideas what can cause this portal malfunction - some sort of caching, etc. ..?

Thanks in advance

Hello Try to delete cache and load again.

In POWL deletion of cache can be done by report POWL_D01, Check it it helps.

The text of tab's tooltip has the following format:

"query_name (N) for Object Type: type_name"

where:

1) query_name - can be defined in POWL_QUERY transaction (description column).

2) type_name - can be defined in POWL_TYPE transaction (description column too).

3) N - number of rows retrieved from query.

Query descriptions and types descriptions can be translated to other languages in POWL_QUERY and POWL_TYPE transactions respectively (Goto -> Translation).
