Extend an user definded table in SAP - user-interface

I am trying to change a selection table within our packing list menu in our SAP system, but I do not know how to do this. My colleague, who is out indefinitely, has created a table of packing materials for our warehouse staff. This table is now to be extended by two further entries. The selection table is in the packing list table DLN7. I have also shown this in the picture attached.
So far I have checked all custom tables and custom windows. However, the table displayed is not there. Does anyone know where in SAP I have to look?
I would be very happy to receive further hints on this.
Thank you very much in advance.

In QuickBase, is there a way to make one field have unique user access?

I'm the QuickBase Admin for my QuickBase app. In the app, there's a dashboard report that's used by individuals with viewer access; that way, they can see their students' data, but can't edit the app, tables, structures, etc.
My app's users want to be able to edit one field with notes on that row's data (each row is a student's data, so they'd want to use that field to add notes on that individual), but viewers don't have editing/data entry access tn any column. Is there a way for users to have editing/data entry access to one field, but not the others?
I know with Tableau and other BI software, this isn't possible, but I wanted to ask since my users asked.
Thank you for reading.
Sure you can.
Actually there are more ways to implement this needs.
My opinion better if you create a new table and make a relationship between the student data and a (new) Notes table and you will be able to setup edit rights eg by record owner.
An other way, you can allow the edit right for your users and you can make a restriction on field level. In this case you have to go through on each field and at the Advanced section you will find Permission - Restrict access by role.
Hopefully you do not have a lot of fields :)

How to make drop-down menu within Oracle Application Express?

I would really appreciate if anybody could shed some light on this, as search engine results have been singularly unhelpful so far.
I am attempting to build a GUI for an oracle database through Application Express. There tend to be tricks of how to set up drop down menus through the Graphical User Interface of the product that one uses (for instance I would know how to do this in a product like Microsoft Access).
For instance I have this form
The foreign key for Business (FK_BUSINESS_ID) is just an integer - not terribly user friendly! If it could be a drop down list of business names (BUSINESS.NAME), it would be great. Hiding the business primary key (BUSINESS_ID) would make it look nicer, but isn't altogether relevant.
I have found the source controls for the element in question.
What sort of SQL (or even PL/SQL) could be used to both display this data from the other table, and return the selected foreign key selected by the user when the form is sent?
Solution
Open up the item, and change the type to Select List
For List of Values Definition, enter select BUSINESS.NAME, FK_BUSINESS_ID from [TABLE]
Explanation
Select list shows display values to the user and returns the corresponding ID. Your source can remain the same as before.

Joomla 'sobipro' - extracting data

I have taken over a Joomla project that needs rebuilding.
I need to get out the user data and some other data linked to users, I have found most of it in the jos_user table and also a table named jos_comprofiler.
There is data inside of jos_sobipro_field_data that I also need, but I do not know how this table related to anything else can someone please explain? I am able to write SQL and the JOIN statements to get it out once I understand how it all fits together.
Finally the table jos_comprofiler references an avatar which is an image name like '100_4f97c0b3c2c31.jpg' where can I find these images?
Thanks, Jake
I can tell you where those tables are coming from:
- jos_users is the user table used by Joomla core, together with jos_user_profiles for additional profile information.
- jos_comprofiler is a table created by the Community Builder extension from http://www.joomlapolis.com/.
- jos_sobipro_field_data is a table created by SobiPro from http://sobipro.sigsiu.net/
Maybe that helps you find the next steps. Maybe someone else knows more details.

Magento: what is table eav_entity for?

I know EAV logic and I know what is eav_entity_attribute for. (about eav_entity_* - the same).
But I'm not clear about table eav_entity. It is always empty.
Could someone give some comments please.
I would be glad to get any assumption.
Google gives nothing on this question, as usual)
Doing a grep of the Community Edition code, the only time eav_entity is mentioned is in the config file (/app/core/code/Mage/Eav/etc/config.xml) and in the database setup files (/app/code/core/Mage/Eav/sql/eav_setup/mysql4-install-0.7.0.php).
To me this says that it was put in just before a release and then never actually used. The devs possibly decided to go with a slightly different way of storing the data...
I expected to see all records of all entities in the table eav_entity. But I see that Magento has created separate tables for each of the 8 entities ( customer, customer_address, category, product, order, invoice, shipment, creditmemo) with the following table names ( customer_entity, customer_address_entity, catalog_category_entity, catalog_product_entity, sales_flat_order, sales_flat_invoice, sales_flat_shipment, sales_flat_creditmemo). So eav_entity table is empty and you get data for entities directly from their respective tables.. Some level of de-EAVing the database design :-)

There are multiple tasks if you want to do this completely. The world at large has not gone this way and so there are not many tools (if any) for this. But basically here are the main ideas.
1) You want a "data dictionary", a collection of meta-data that tells you what the types and sizes of each column are, and the primary and foreign keys are.
2) For your example of "knowing" that a field should be a drop-down, this almost always means that column value is a foreign key to another table. Your code detects this and builds a listbox out of the values in the parent table.
3) You can go so far as to create a complete form generator for simple tables, where all of the HTML is generated, but you always need a way to override this for the more complex forms. If you do this, your data dictionary should also have column descriptions or captions.
There are many many more ideas, but this is the starting point for what you describe.
