I am writing code for a custom SAP program regarding some Vendor information. In my program flow, there is a possibility of me trying to use a Vendor VAT Number that belongs to an unknown Vendor. There is a Web site (EU Based - https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/) for such purposes that requires a country key and the specified VAT Number in order for it to provide an answer with the available Company information (only works for company VAT numbers of course). My problem is that I cannot seem to find any way to pass those parameters dynamically to the Web site without needing the user to interfere during this process. Manually, the process would be to select a country key, type in a VAT number and press 'Verify'.
Is there any way for me to call this specific Web site URL and "bypass" this process to only display the result page? For now, I'm using the following Function Module to just call the specified URL, in lack of any better choices.
call function 'CALL_INTERNET_ADRESS'
exporting
pi_adress = 'https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/'
exceptions
no_input_data = 1
others = 2.
You can use CL_HTTP_CLIENT class or HTTP_POST/HTPP_GET FM.
You need to install given web page SSL root certificate to your system with STRUST t-code.
Example usage of CL_HTTP_CLIENT below.
DATA: lv_url TYPE string VALUE 'http://mkysoft.com/ip.php'.
DATA: o_client TYPE REF TO if_http_client.
DATA: lv_http_rc TYPE i.
DATA: lv_reason TYPE string.

OTHERS = 0 ).
o_client->request->get_header_fields( CHANGING fields = lt_fields ).
o_client->request->set_header_field( name = '~request_uri' value = '/ip.php' ).
o_client->request->set_header_field( name = '~host' value = 'mkysoft.com' ).
o_client->request->set_method( if_http_request=>co_request_method_get ).
o_client->send( ).
o_client->receive( ).
o_client->response->get_status( IMPORTING
code = lv_http_rc

* Error check
IF lv_http_rc = 200.
DATA(lv_xml) = o_client->response->get_cdata( ).
* Handle error

WRITE: / e_txt->get_text( ).
ENDTRY.
EU Commission has a SOAP service for vat numbers.
See the info page
https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/technicalInformation.html
and that it even supports http
http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/checkVatTestService.wsdl
You have a non screen scrape method, proper interface you should look at.
On the other point of Avoiding SSL.
Make a basic guide for customers to add the European commission cert to their SAP system. If someone is complaining about that, then they are a serious user of the internet. Every sap on premise user, that needs to call the internet adds certs.

I'm using the latest (v7) Google Ads API to upload offline conversions for Google Ads, using the Python Client Library. This is the standard code I'm using:
import os
from google.ads.googleads.client import GoogleAdsClient
client = GoogleAdsClient.load_from_env(version='v7')
def process_adwords_conversion(
conversion_date_time,
gclid,
conversion_action_id,
conversion_value
):
conversion_date_time = convert_datetime(conversion_date_time)
customer_id = os.environ['GOOGLE_ADS_LOGIN_CUSTOMER_ID']
click_conversion = client.get_type("ClickConversion")
conversion_action_service = client.get_service("ConversionActionService")
click_conversion.conversion_action = (
conversion_action_service.conversion_action_path(
customer_id, conversion_action_id
)
)
click_conversion.gclid = gclid
click_conversion.conversion_value = float(conversion_value)
click_conversion.conversion_date_time = conversion_date_time
click_conversion.currency_code = "USD"
conversion_upload_service = client.get_service("ConversionUploadService")
request = client.get_type("UploadClickConversionsRequest")
request.customer_id = customer_id
request.conversions = [click_conversion]
request.partial_failure = True
conversion_upload_response = (
conversion_upload_service.upload_click_conversions(
request=request,
)
)
uploaded_click_conversion = conversion_upload_response.results[0]
print(conversion_upload_response)
print(
f"Uploaded conversion that occurred at "
f'"{uploaded_click_conversion.conversion_date_time}" from '
f'Google Click ID "{uploaded_click_conversion.gclid}" '
f'to "{uploaded_click_conversion.conversion_action}"'
)
return False
I believe the code is fine, but I'm having problems locating the conversion_action_id value to use. In the Google Ads UI there's a screen listing the different Conversion Actions, with no sign of an ID anywhere. You can click on the name and get more details, but still no ID:
The conversion action detail screen in Google Ads UI
I've tried the following:
Using the ocid, ctId, euid, __u, uscid, __c, subid URL parameters from this detail page as the conversion_action_id. That always gives an error:
partial_failure_error {
code: 3
message: "This customer does not have an import conversion action that matches the conversion action provided., at conversions[0].conversion_action"
details {
type_url: "type.googleapis.com/google.ads.googleads.v7.errors.GoogleAdsFailure"
value: "\n\305\001\n\003\370\006\t\022dThis customer does not have an import conversion action that matches the conversion action provided.\0320*.customers/9603123598/conversionActions/6095821\"&\022\017\n\013conversions\030\000\022\023\n\021conversion_action"
}
}
Using the standard Google answer:
https://support.google.com/google-ads/thread/1449693/where-can-we-find-google-ads-conversion-ids?hl=en
Google suggests creating a new Conversion Action and obtaining the ID in the process. Unfortunately their instructions don't correspond to the current UI version, at least for me. The sequence I follow is:
Click the + icon on the Conversion Actions page
Select "Import" as the kind of conversion I want
Select "Other data sources or CRMs" then "Track conversions from clicks"
Click "Create and Continue"
I then get the screen:
Screen following Conversion Action creation
The recommended answer says:
The conversion action is now created and you are ready to set up the tag to add it to your website. You have three options and the recommended answer in this thread is discussing the Google Tag Manager option, which is the only option that uses the Conversion ID and Conversion Label. If you do not click on the Google Tag Manager option you will not be presented with the Conversion ID and Conversion Label.
Not so! What three options? The first "Learn more" link mentions the Google Tag Manager, but in the context of collecting the GCLID, which I already have. The "three options" mentioned in the official answer have gone. Clicking "done" simply takes me back to the Conversion Actions listing.
Using the REST API
I've tried authenticating and interrogating the endpoint:
https://googleads.googleapis.com/v7/customers/9603123598/conversionActions/
hoping that would give a list of conversion actions, but it doesn't. It just gives a 404.
Does anybody know a way of getting the Conversion Action ID, either from the UI or programmatically (via client library, REST or some other method)?
Thanks!
If you're using Python, you can list your conversions via next snippet:
ads: GoogleAdsServiceClient = client.get_service('GoogleAdsService')
pages = ads.search(query="SELECT conversion_action.id, conversion_action.name FROM conversion_action", customer_id='YOUR_MCC_ID')
for page in pages:
print(page.conversion_action)
You can also open conversion action in UI and locate &ctId=, that's the conversion action id.
I found this post with the solution how to get the Conversion Action ID:
(…) I found out that conversionActionId can be found also in Google
Ads panel. When you go to conversion action details, in URL there is
parameter "ctId=123456789" which represent conversion action id.
By the way, I tried something similar and it's still not working, but with this Conversion Action ID I get a different "Partial Failure" message, at least.
At least in Google Ads API (REST) v10,
it works if field conversionAction is set with value:
'customers/{customerId}/conversionActions/{ctId}'
customerId - without hyphens
ctId - conversion action id, as mentioned in above comments,
taken from GET parameters in Google Ads panel when specific conversion is opened.
Can also be found programmatically with API method.
I am not a developer but have used Google search and trial and error test scenarios with Zapier for the last few days and have given up on figuring this out myself. I need help!
I'm using the Run JavaScript code step in Zapier and provided the following details to Input Data.
It says: What input data should we provide to your code (as strings) via an object set to a variable named inputData?
I'm using "street" with a street address example "1402 Spring Garden Rd"
What is the code to use that regardless of the street address provided all the numbers and first space are removed so that the results is "Spring Garden Rd"
Thank you in advance!
var street = inputData;
var streetNoNumbers = inputData.replace(/[0-9]/g, '');
return streetNoNumbers
The error message I'm getting is
TypeError: inputData.replace is not a function
I've learned that strings are immutable and a new string can be made from manipulating another string but doing this in zapier seems to require a function and creating another var with the calculation generates a ... is not a function.
I've tried to write a function but can't get the output or return to show the proper results either.
I can do the following successfully,
var street = inputData
return street
1402 Spring Garden Road
I want to include the code that manipulates street to produce the following:
Spring Garden Road
David here, from the Zapier Platform team. Great question!
The key understanding you're missing is that inputData is a js object with a street property. Before your code is run, we set it up like so:
const inputData = {street: '1402 Spring Garden Rd'}
Since inputData is an object, it doesn't have a replace method (the error you're seeing). Instead, perform your operation on .street and return that.
Try the following:
// need to return an object, not just a string
return {streetNoNumbers: inputData.replace(/[0-9]/g, '')}
If you want to learn more, I recommend our simple examples: https://zapier.com/help/code/#simple-email-extraction
I am creating a SAPUI5 application. This application is connected to a backend SAP system via OData. In the SAPUI5 application I use a smart chart control. Out of the box the smart chart lets the user create filters for the underlying data. This works fine - except if you try to use multiple 'not equals' for one property. Is there a way to accomplish this?
I found out that all properties within an 'and_expression' (including nested or_expressions) must have unique name.
The reason why two parameters with the same property don't get parsed into the select options:
/IWCOR/CL_ODATA_EXPR_UTILS=>GET_FILTER_SELECT_OPTIONS takes the expression you pass and parses it into a table of select options.
The select option table returned is of type /IWCOR/IF_ODATA_TYPES=>EDM_SELECT_OPTION_T which is a HASHED TABLE .. WITH UNIQUE KEY property.
From: https://archive.sap.com/discussions/thread/3170195
The problem is that you cannot combine NE terms with OR. Because both parameters after the NE should not be shown in the result set.
So at the end the it_filter_select_options is empty and only the iv_filter_string is filled.
Is there a manual way of facing this problem (evaluation of the iv_filter_string) to handle multiple NE terms?
This would be an example request:
XYZ/SmartChartSet?$filter=(Category%20ne%20%27Smartphone%27%20and%20Category%20ne%20%27Notebook%27)%20and%20Purchaser%20eq%20%27CompanyABC%27%20and%20BuyDate%20eq%20datetime%272018-10-12T02%3a00%3a00%27&$inlinecount=allpages
Normally I want this to exclude items with the category 'Notebook' and 'Smartphone' from my result set that I retrieve from the backend.
If there is a bug inside /iwcor/cl_odata_expr_utils=>get_filter_select_options which makes it unable to treat multiple NE filters of the same component, and you cannot wait for an OSS. I would suggest to wrap it inside a new static method that will make the following logic (if you will be stuck with the ABAP implementation i would try to at least partially implement it when i get time):
Get all instances of <COMPONENT> ne '<VALUE>' inside a () (using REGEX).
Replace each <COMPONENT> with <COMPONENT>_<i> so there will be ( <COMPONENT>_1 ne '<VALUE_1>' and <COMPONENT>_2 ne '<VALUE_2>' and... <COMPONENT>_<n> ne '<VALUE_n>' ).
Call /iwcor/cl_odata_expr_utils=>get_filter_select_options with the modified query.
Modify the rt_select_options result by changing COMPONENT_<i> to <COMPONENT> again.
I can't find the source but I recall that multiple "ne" isn't supported. Isn't that the same thing that happens when you do multiple negatives in SE16, some warning is displayed?
I found this extract for Business ByDesign:
Excluding two values using the OR operator (for example: $filter=CACCDOCTYPE ne ‘1000’ or CACCDOCTYPE ne ‘4000’) is not possible.
The workaround I see is to select the Categories you actively want, not the ones you don't in the UI5 app.
I can also confirm that my code snippet I've used a long time for filtering also has the same problem...

I'm trying to use the Google AdWords bid simulator system to try and get some insights out of the AdWords bid simulator. More specifically I'm using the AdGroupBidLandscape() functionality, but it's returning 'No Campaigns Found', but we definitely have campaigns where the Bid Simulator tool works through the AdWords web page interface, so I'm a bit confused. Here is the code I'm running, and yes I know I'm only retrieving a single field - I'm just trying to keep things as simple as possible.
from googleads import adwords
import logging
import time
CHUNK_SIZE = 16 * 1024
PAGE_SIZE = 100
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
logging.getLogger('suds.transport').setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
adwords_client = adwords.AdWordsClient.LoadFromStorage()
dataService = adwords_client.GetService('DataService', version='v201710')
offset = 0
selector = {'fields':['Bid'], #'impressions', 'promotedImpressions', 'requiredBudget', 'bidModifier', 'totalLocalImpressions', 'totalLocalClicks', 'totalLocalCost', 'totalLocalPromotedImpressions'],
'paging': {
'startIndex': str(offset),
'numberResults': str(PAGE_SIZE)
}
}
more_pages = True
while more_pages:
page = dataService.getAdGroupBidLandscape(selector)
# Display results.
if 'entries' in page:
for campaign in page['entries']:
print ('Campaign with id "%s", name "%s", and status "%s" was '
'found.' % (campaign['id'], campaign['name'],
campaign['status']))
else:
print 'No campaigns were found.'
offset += PAGE_SIZE
selector['paging']['startIndex'] = str(offset)
more_pages = offset < int(page['totalNumEntries'])
time.sleep(1)
We have several different accounts attachd to AdWords. My account is the only one that has developer API access, so I sort of wonder if the problem is that my account isn't the primary account associated with the campaigns- I just have one of the few administrator accounts. Can anyone provide some insights about this for me?
Thanks,
Brad
The solution I found to this problem was to add a predicate to the selector specifying a particular CampaignId. While that doesn't make any sense to me that it would fix it, because it should really just be filtering the data with that if I understand things correctly, it seems to have. I don't have a good explanation for that, but I thought someone else might find this useful. If I come to realize this wasn't the fix to the problem I had, I will come back and update this answer.
I don't see the Unit Price attribute available in the Item Class when it comes to QBD. Its available in QBO. I am trying to download and fill a database using the items entered via Quickbooks desktop version. Can someone help please?
How can I get the Unit Price for an item in Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbd.Item?
Extra Information Added after comment by Shivan Raptor (7-Nov-2013)
I am having a Quickbooks Pro Trial 2014 UK version installed in my computer. I have created a company file and items for the company. When I create an item I can enter a Price to that item. Quickbooks must be saving it somewhere. I need to access it using the Quickbooks API from my .Net application.
I am interested on the stock items here. I am using Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbd.Item class to access it. Am I using the right class? If you go to the API documentation the Item class has a field called Unit Price but its not listed when you actually check from the .Net application.
Shivan Raptor wanted the code (8-Nov-2013)
Given below is the code snippet. If you understand the question properly you would realize it cannot give a run time error because you cannot compile a code if you write it with object attributes that are not exposed. And the compiler error is kind of obvious too:
ATTRIBUTE_NAME not present in CLASS_NAME
In this case, ATTRIBUTE_NAME = UnitPrice and CLASS_NAME = Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbd.Item (this is already there in the first post itself)
The relevant code sample is given below. Its the code behind of an ASP.Net page.
Try
Dim varItemBL As New BL.ItemManagement
'Preparing Query
Dim qbdItemQuery As New Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbd.ItemQuery
qbdItemQuery.ItemElementName = Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbd.ItemChoiceType4.StartPage
qbdItemQuery.Item = "1"
qbdItemQuery.ChunkSize = "10"
'Quering Quickbooks Desktop
Dim qbdItems = qbdItemQuery.ExecuteQuery(Of Intuit.Ipp.Data.Qbd.Item)(context).ToList
'Synchronising Items from Quickbooks to MyDigiRep
For i As Integer = 0 To qbdItems.Count - 1
Dim varUnitPrice As Decimal
'Checking whether Unit Price is entered
If qbdItems(i).UnitPrice Is Nothing Then
varUnitPrice = 0
Else
varUnitPrice = qbdItems(i).UnitPrice.Amount
End If
'Synchronising Item with the MyDigiRep database
varItemBL.fnAddItemsAPI(qbdItems(i).Name, "NS", varUnitPrice, _
qbdItems(i).UOMAbbrv, HttpContext.Current.Session("companyID"), _
qbdItems(i).Id.Value)
Next
'Updating UI to display synchronisation results
lblItemSycnStatus.Text = qbdItems.Count & " Item Records Synchronised."
Catch ex As Exception
lblItemSycnStatus.Text = "Item Records Synchronisation Failed."
End Try
The version of the Intuit.Ipp.Data.dll is 2.1.12.0
