WAD - set data entry mode

[Former Member]

Hi,

I want to create a button in my planning layout in WAD that makes it able to change between display mode and edit mode.

I know it's a button with command: SET_DATA_ENTRY_MODE but when I try this button, it doesn't work. How come?

My query that I use for dataprovider is in input-ready mode...

I'm on BI 7.0, Gui 7.10 SP3

Hi,

I have a similar requirement, wherein I should be able to switch between display and change mode. But, my input enabled layouts were shown in Analyzer/Workbook and not in WAD.

Where should I put the command 'SET_DATA_ENTRY_MODE'

Please explain in detail.

Thanks,

Srini.

HI Joke,

Normally the following command should work:

SET_DATA_ENTRY_MODE Activ = On

Did you do this?

Hi Dries,

thanks for your reply... but I already tried it multiple times and it doesn't work like discribed in the course...

any other suggestions?

[Former Member]

It does not work for me also. We are on SP14. But otherwise, are you able to get the input queries to accept values ? We provided two reports - one for view and one for input under two tabs, to address this problem.

We are also on SP14...

We have queries that are inputready and accept values...

I just search a way to let the button 'edit ->display' work...

Hi,

I the details of the command, did you sepcify the relevant data provider?

[Former Member]

yes, I did... I specified everything just like in the course/helpfile...

Hi,

Is only the "edit -> display" not working or "display -> edit" also not working?

For "edit -> display", in the details of command, use SET_DATA_ENTRY_MODE Active = Off.

Hi All,

my problem is solved...

There is a code-error in the functionality for 'edit -> display mode':

the bold line is missing in the code that SAP delivers...

Anyone solved the problem?

Hi,

I can get this to work with the button. But if I try and do it before rendering (as a command in the properties of the webtemplate) it keeps giving me a dump... any ideas?

Thanks,

Rob

When you specify the command for the button, click the Activ command and then click it again to switch it off. This should get rid of the dump.
