openbravo 3.0 erp - how to work with source code for customization - openbravo

I am using openbravo 3.0 erp (free version) for customization.I need to modify the Physical Inventory screen(Application->Warehouse Management->Transaction->Physical Inventory).I have successfully run the openbravo 3.0 erp in my localhost.
My problem is I am unable to find out the view page of the Physical Inventory screen.I am new to this.Can any one help me to find the view name?.

Physical Inventory file may available in "openbravo_home/srcAD/org/openbravo/erpWindows/PhysicalInventory"
Remember Openbravo is using Application dictionary to develop windows.So you need to use templates to modify this window.(don't do direct edit,it may overrriden during build)

Why Acumatica ERP PX.DataSource give rendering error at design view?

I started using Acumatica ERP framework to create a sample application. I follow the steps provided in training document. By following the steps i added a ListView maintenance page.
The newly created page has PX.DataSource control created by acumatica framework. But this control has one error message with it i.e. "Error Rending Control - usrCaption". I attached the screenshot of this error.
I reinstalled framework many time but still same issue occurred to me. I opened my project on other machines and it's working fine. and also projects created on other machines that are working fine on source machine also giving same error on my machine.
Why Acumatica ERP PX.DataSource give rendering error at design view?
Usually this occurs because the template are lagging behind in terms of maintenance and aren't 100% compatible with all possible Visual Studio deployment (especially the latest versions).
The templates are very rarely used and since the Customization Project Editor has all the same features and more this is the one most users are using and the focus is put on maintaining this one before the Visual Studio templates.
It's unfortunate that the T100 training documents focus on these. Support regarding the templates is always originating from T100 training since they aren't very useful besides that. I would prefer the training direct new user to the Customization Project Editor instead because as far as I know it is what everybody uses and the only one that is always up to date.

Cognos Hyperion Essbase connection

We have cognos analytics which we want to connect to Hyperion cube but domain network in which they both are present are different because Hyperion is an application which over parent company owns and Cognos is owned by the my company which is a sister company to corporate.
Is their any other way we can access the Hyperion cube directly in cognos.
You should be able to use the Oracle Essbase data source available within the IBM Cognos Administration\Configuration.
If you are using the compatible query mode(CQM) you'll need to install the Essbase client, set the environment variables and possibly adjust the cqe_config.xml depending on your version.
If you are using the dynamic query mode(DQM) you'll need to copy the Jar files into the drivers folder within the Report Server install.
All the above is covered in more detail via the following link:

Create Form Template from existing ones

Is there any way that I can create a template within forms to utilize for every user in the company?
For instance; let's say I have the Sales Order Screen (SO301000) and the Document Detail grid configured in certain way, that display different amount of columns than the default (either more or less columns).
For each user I want to use this template (and all the ones created) that I will apply when I add the new user.
I'l appreciate any guidance and help.
EDIT:
I provided answer for Form element ASP template below. Although reading your question again I think what you're trying to do would be more along the lines of automating grid column configuration. We call this feature Default Table Layout.
There's a feature request for it here:
https://feedback.acumatica.com/ideas/ACU-I-415
The feature has been shipped in version 2017R2 and is documented here:
https://help.acumatica.com/(W(1))/Main?ScreenId=ShowWiki&pageid=30f3229f-20f1-4055-9c03-e0fe3b37080d

For ASP Form templates
There are two ways to work with customizations in Acumatica:
As a Customization Project, everything is done directly in Acumatica
instance through the web browser using the Customization Project Editor.
As an extension library (DLL file) compiled in Visual Studio which is then included in the FILES section of a Customization Project.
For method 1, I believe creating custom templates would be a bit of a hack and would not be officially supported, if someone knows otherwise please chime in.
For method 2, we ship the Visual Studio templates with the Acumatica Configuration Wizard (Acumatica ERP Installer).
Those templates are in the following folder:
My Documents\Visual Studio 20XX\Templates\ItemTemplates\Visual C#
The templates will be available for ASP.NET solution only. You can open Acumatica Instance Website as a solution if the website is already deployed:
When you open Add New Item dialog:
The Acumatica Templates will be available:
Those are standard Visual Studio templates so you can copy and re-use them to create your own. Microsoft documentation for creating user template applies and you can follow their guidelines. Note that working with Visual Studio and creating your own template is somewhat less user friendly than using Acumatica Customization Project Editor.
Acumatica T100 covers using Visual Studio to create customizations and would be a good starting point to learn the techniques involved:

SharePoint 2013 Dynamic Data on all pages

If I have a requirement of displaying the a content on all the pages inside a header, Whats the best way to do that in an SharePoint 2013?
I am working on a master page that will be using the design manager and there is possibility of using the same master page in the SharePoint online too. The reason why I want to know what is the best way, when I use this same master page in SharePoint online I would like avoid redoing that entire coding for getting a dynamic data from the web service.
Several ways that I have been planning is below
- User control method
- Web part method, but requires server side coding which I doubt can used in online version
This is a complete dynamic data that will be retrieved by a web service and no internal SharePoint data be used.
Thanks for reading

If its possible to consume web-service using jQuery/Ajax call you can go with that
Or else if you want to use c#, might need to go with provider hosted app feature (sharepoint 2013)
You can create a Visual Web Part for SharePoint 2013 Online.
Your web part will be contained in a Sandbox Solution which you will develop locally. Once development is complete you will upload the Solution Package created by Visual Studio to SharePoint Online.

Add or edit package in Cognos

I have some application, that use cognos as report engine. This application have some predefined packages for it's reports.
When I need to create report, I use tables and field in predefined packages, and everything is OK!
But now I created my own table, and I want to make report for this table. But I don't see it in Cognos Report Studio, and I can't add it into default Ad-Hoc Query Layer. I tried to add SQL-query, but it also don't work.
How to edit predefined packages in Cognos. I think there need to be another utility, not Cognos Report Studio. But I don't know what utility, and I can't find any solution in IBM Help.
You need to use IBM Cognos Framework Manager (if you have a Cognos BI Admin license, you'll also be licensed to use this), and edit the 'Model'. If the 'predefined package' you're referring to comes with models (e.g. the Cognos sample data is within the /webcontent/samples/models directory), then you can open these with Framework Manager and publish a new package with your update database structure.
I have error in configuration of SQL-query. Need to select source before SQL-check. Cognos don't need to have predefined packages to work with user-structures.
