Navigating to a Customer record from an IQA Table View iPart

Hi,

I have an IQA which links to a customer record properly using "key_contact".

I then created a custom link on the customer desktop using Content Manager which links directly to the IQA, held within the iPart "iMIS 15. IQA Table Viewer Control II"

Under configuration I specified Navigation Column on the key_contact column (iMIS ID) to open "Manage customers" and set the value to "Key Contact column value".

I specified the navigation column to be the iMISID which already has the alias "Key_contact" in the IQA. 

Changing the "Home" content on iMIS Web Admin (15.1.x)

Does anyone know how to change the contents of the "Home" area on iMIS web admin?

I helped a client launch on 15.1.2 recently, and when you access iMIS web admin from our WCM server, it shows a message "This site needs some content".

I can't figure out where you would go to change this content. There doesn't appear to be any default.aspx pages, and there doesn't appear to be any web content for this page.

BOD Publish for Debug fails without error message

I have a custom iBO design in Business Object Designer.  It Compiles successfully, but when I click Publish for Debugging, it fails with no messages or errors.  Does anyone know what might be the cause?

Using a Query as a source for IQA

I have a client who wants a list of a particular member type (REG) who reside in Canada or in Washington State.

This is really easy to do with SQL: SELECT Full_Name, ID, State_Province, Country, Member_Type FROM Name WHERE STATE_PROVINCE = 'WA' OR COUNTRY = 'Canada'

I tried using IQA in the following ways:

  1. Create a query where I use the CsContact BO and Filter Member Type = "Regular" AND State Province = "Washington" OR Member Type = "Regular" AND Country = "Canada" Depending on the order, I either get all Washington or All Canada, but never both.  If I try Member Type = "Regular" and State Province = "Washington" or Country = "Canada" I get the same results, depending on the order
     
  2. I tried creating two queries - one where Member Type = "Regular" and Country = "Canada" and one where Member Type = "Regular" and State Province = "Washington" then used left outer joins to the CsContact BO for each of them, but got multiple lines for each result and only ID numbers, no other fields
     
  3. I created a query to just show Member Type = "Regular" and then used it as my source for a query where Country = "Canada" or State Province = "Washington" and was able to get only Canada and Washington but for every member type.

The only solution I could find was to use State Province and select all the Canadian provinces as well as Washington.  This works for now, but in the future they will be asking me for this type of thing again and it may not be possible to make the filtering selections from one field.  Did I do something wrong with my joins or my filters?

Broken Publishing Server

I have a publishing server that is throwing an error when I try to 'show all' errors in the error log.  I can not delete any errors for this particular server because the buttons do not display.  The error is below. 

The publishing is still working to the web server that this publishing server is dedicated to.  I have restarted the service and both my app server and web server but no change.

Adding public view pages to a content record

I don't think this is possible, but who knows, I may be wrong. My client wants to have the ablility to include public view content on a regular content record. e.g. Say they create a content record that has the format of 1 over 1. They want the abiltiy to put text in the top box and then have  the public view page content in the lower box. Is this possible? If yes, how was this accomplished?

Creating custom page

I have created custom pages in iMIS but without being able to incorporate the master pages inherent in the template (1600).  I have tested by creating aspx pages using all the master pages available (a search on the Net folder shows only master pages in templates/masterpages.

I would like to create custom pages that incorporate the template masters.  How do I do this -- it seems like it should be simple.

Underscore in Alias name

I have a client who wants to use an underscore in the alias name - something like Home_Country but when the query is run the underscore is stripped out. I understand that the underscore is used in keywords and that may be the reason.  Is there an escape character that can be used to preserve the underscore?

Thanks!

Why. Is New Content. Generated. From the Bottom?

I am having an extrememly difficult time in MOVING a Web part once I've created it within a content record. It seems that if I have a content record with too much content on it, I get this error: 

Error: The collection already contains the specified content item.

This is as was already catalogued previuosly here and as was submitted as a ticket. I do not know if ASI has bothered to resolve it.

Viewing WCM site using IE 6.0

A client on 15.1.2 + is reporting issues viewing their WCM site in IE 6.0.   I've seen some problems in the past with other's as well. What is ASI's official stance on which browsers work best when viewing a WCM site and which ones to avoid?
