PDF im DataView

Ismail Günay

Ich möchte gerne abhängig von der Kundennummer, die dazu passende PDF als Link anzeigen lassen.

Siehe Anhang. Geht das?

Dear Ismail Günay,

 

thanks for your request.

 

The Block "PDF öffnen" is based to what?

 

In general for sure you can also show links inside an algorithm, textcube, ...

The Block "PDF öffnen" is based on nothing right now...

I have following idea: I need a procedure which opens a pdf-file.

The block "PDF öffnen" would then be based on the mentioned procedure.

 

I know how to make procedures but i don't know how to build one which opens a PDF file.

Can help me with that question?

Dear Ismail Günay,

 

did you think about using BLOB Cubes where your PDFs are stored in? Using such you can directly open from your dataview.

 

Alternatively when you have to open external PDF File, I think the most common approach will be using Label or Button with Layout. More informations about you can find here: buttons_labels_enhancements 

It can be also a solution using a procedure but I think this will be the most complicate solution and will only work for the winclient.

 

Hope it helps

I completely agree with Alexander. Probably the best way is to have a BLOB Cube with you PDFs stored in it with as dimensions the ones you want to show in your dataview.

 

In case you need to link to external PDF Files, I wanted just to showcase a particular example to emphasize on Alexanders point.

 

You can use a Master layout in combination with a label.

 

Before applying the master layout:

After applying the master layout, you can click on the label and go to screen you need:

This URL used in the label is dynamically based on the action value you define in your dataview. You will typically want to store your URLs in a text cube per dimension you want to show in your dataview (not in my example due to the particularity of the weblink).

 

 

I hope this clarifies even more!

All the best,
Jonathan

OK. I set up a BLOB-Cube which is only specified by "Kunde".

And then I used the ASCII-Reader

 

The number 75199 belongs to the Code behind the Entity "Kunde". What I want is to link the PDF, which is named with the number of the Code.

After I run the protocoll, i got following results:

After testing the the BLOB Cube i got nothing on my DataView:

The blieve that I have made mistakes in the data-Reader process. Thanks for Solutions.

Dear Ismail Günay,

 

you can´t directly read the attachment to the cube.

 

Please have a look to the following article: Blob InfoCubes 

 

Alternatively you can fill the cube also by enabling dataentry inside your dataview and manually add the file to the wished Customer.

 

By they way, perhaps it will make sense for you visiting one of our trainings where such thinks are taught.

 

Hope it helps
