I need to know what changes will help me to populate the property in Endeca Workbench Rule Manager Advance tab - endeca

I have create a new property in Endeca Developer Studio named pRandom. This field is AutoGen and data is mapped with a txt file which is generated by the third party vendor. I need this same property to appear in Endeca WorkBench --> Rule manager --> Any Rules --> Advance Tab

If you are referring to Merchandising Workbench, then I do not believe that you can trigger a rule on a property. Dimensions must be used instead.
BTW, I do not see any advance tab in my Workbench installation.

Update a template in TFS 2015 not working for the web interface

I have updated a template of a Work Item in TFS 2015 called User Story. I simply created a rule on a field to set a default value.
To default the field I did the following :
On visual Studio, on the Main Menu, click on Tools / Process Editor / Work Item Types / Open WIT from server.
Browse to the Work Item (User Story in this exemple) Then click OK.
Double click on the field to edit. On the Rules tab. Add a new rule : DEFAULT. From: Value and Value: My Text here.
I can see the change on the user story when I use Visual Studio but not on the Web Portal.
Is there anything that I need to do for the web portal to get get this change?
Could that be a bug ?
Any idea ?
Thanks
I've tested in my TFS 2015.4, and got correct behavior.
Here are my steps for your reference:
Add a new field and make it available on work item form.
Add a DEFAUL rule, the XML looks like:
<FieldDefinition name="test" refname="test.test" type="String">
<DEFAULT from="value" value="mytext" />
</FieldDefinition>
Check this custom field in VS:
Check this custom field on web portal:

endeca property value in lowercase

I have to store value in one Endeca property but in lowercase. Values can be in uppercase or in lowercase in the source file but I have to store it in lowercase in the Endeca property.
Any pointer on how I can proceed will be helpful.
Thanks
Neha
This can be done using oracle endeca developer studio.
1) Firstly open your pipeline using developer studio which is in app path under config folder.
2) Then under the project explorer window, click on dimension tab.
3) Finally at the top pane, click on values to add for the property you want.
4) Run the baseline update.
This can be achieved either adding Java manipulator or Pearl Manipulator in the Endeca pipeline and put the code to convert the value from any case to lower case.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,

Unable to add the parameter field in crystal report

I am developing a windows application and am using crystal reports in it.
I am trying to add the parameter field in it, however, when I click on the OK button, it is just not working.
Am I missing anything out?
I have Uninstalled and Installed Crystal Reports, its working fine now...
There could be 2 possiblities.
1) Just checked on my PC, just be Right Clicking Parameters -> Add -> Leaving everything as is (defaults) I am able to create a parameter. You must have changed some setting inside. Use defaults to confirm that you are able to create one.
2) You are missing the Value Field. This field specifies CR which database field to work upon when the parameter is used.
The drop-down will list all the database fields available for use.
Besides, here are few tutorials that explain how to use parameters that might guide you.
Good tutorial on parameters in CR

Cannot change control name property in IDE (VB.Net 2008 and ActiveReports.)

I have a VB.Net 2008 project that use ActiveReports. The problem is that any control on the report does not list the control's Name in the Properties window. All other properties seem to be there, just not the Name. The only way to change the name is to go into the forms .vb and change the name with a search and replace (like Me.Label1 to Me.lblAmount). All other forms are fine, it's just the ActiveReports forms. This happened just recently and there didn't seem to be any sort of update/event that triggered it. Anyone else have this issue before?
Thanks in advance,
-J
It is suggested that you download and upgrade to the most recent available build/service pack of the version of ActiveReports you are working with. And thereafter you should not face an issues.
The latest service packs can be downloaded from the following links :
AR3 : http://www.datadynamics.com/forums/121331/ShowPost.aspx
AR6 : http://www.datadynamics.com/forums/83/ShowForum.aspx
AR7 : http://our.componentone.com/groups/topic/activereports-7-service-pack-1-maintenance-release-now-available-2/
After the download, make sure that all of the dll’s of the upgraded version are present in the GAC. Also check that there isn't any dll of the previous version is present in GAC. After that remove all the ActiveReports references and then re-add the latest dll(s) in your project. Re-build the whole solution. You may also try creating a new project and check whether the name property appears.

WIX adding shortcut to a website or url location using wix and choose custom icon for that shortcut

I want to add a shortcut to the start menu group with following specifications:
It should point to a website, say www.xyz.com
It should have some custom icon
I need to pass some parameters to it, like www.xyz.com?lang=XXXX.
Where XXXX is language code e.g. 1033, 1036, etc. and it's dependent on the language chosen by the user for my application.
Please help.
if the website is always the same you could try including one shortcut.url inside your package for each language that you support and install only the one for that specific language on the disk.
this way you could also control the shortcut that gets used for the .url file.
I found a work-around for this problem.
I made an executable which parses stored language and then calls ShellExecute to start the default browser with required url and language option. I added a shortcut to this executable in the start menu, icon was included in the executable itself.
