Auto-filled fields linked to other selectable fields

I would like to create a set of numeric fields that auto-fills with default (but user-editable) values, with the selection of a radio button. I would like to be able to create a different set of values for different buttons, all pointing to the same set of numeric fields.
Does anyone know if this can be done?
Thanks,
Shoshana

Hi carphuntin_god,
According to your description, my understanding is that when you click a hyperlink which redirect to other files , the file are opened very slowly via excel client.
How about you download the same file and open it using excel client? If it is opened quite fast, the issue should be caused by some third-party add-ins in the office program or antivirus soft.
Here is a similar thread you can have a look:

If you want to open the files using excel service after click the link in the excel file, you can create the hyperlink in the following way:
General Syntax:
http://<server_name>/<site_name>/_layouts/ xlviewer.aspx?id=<workbook path>&range=<location>
For example:
http://CorpServer/DeptA89/_layouts/ xlviewer.aspx?id=http://Mfct/Stats/Shared%20Documents/Parts.xlsx&range=Widgets!A1:F25
For more information:

If you want to open the files using Office Web Apps after click the link in the excel file, you can create the hyperlink in the following way:
http://<server name> / <site name> / <library name>/<your file name> ?web=1
For example:
http://sp/Shared%20Documents/exceltest.xlsx?Web=1

Populating a reqd. selection field based on other selection field-Reports?

Hi,
I have a selection screen wherein there are several fields which are mandatory.Now it has fields like customer Number(KNA1-KUNNR) for which there is a standard help coming in and customer name(KNA1-NAME1).
My requirement is as soon as user selects a customer no along with customer no customer name field is also populated without performing any action on screen.Now if I write the code as:-
at selection-screen on p_name1.
select single name1 into p_name1
                              from kna1
                              where kunnr = p_kunnr.
There are few problems in this:-
1)It will be executed only when user presses enter or F8 but I dont want that...
2)Also if I perform any action on screen say pressed enter this code will be executed only when i have put in values in all the MANDATORY fields.So will have to put in a dummy value first since its a mandatory field and then this code will be executed which doesn't serve my purpose..
Please suggest a way out..Its really urgent..Have to make an object delivery
Thanks in advance,
Swati

Try this example, this will also automatically update the NAME1 field when user does F4 help on the customer number.

Auto population of data to fields based on other input field.

In overview screen, I have one input field "Business Partner" which contain search help. As soon as business partner selected from dropdown, the other input fields like Name, Address, City, state should automatically populated without hit of 'ENTER' key.
I verified with method DO_PREPARE_OUTPUT, but it is triggering only by hitting ENTER key. Is there any event or method which will trigger after business partner selected from dropdown? or any other option to achieve to auto populate the fields.
Please find attached screen.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Narayana,
You can use the get p method for setting up the values without pressing the enter.
CASE iv_property.
    WHEN if_bsp_wd_model_setter_getter=>fp_fieldtype.
      rv_value = cl_bsp_dlc_view_descriptor=>field_type_picklist.
    WHEN if_bsp_wd_model_setter_getter=>fp_server_event.
      rv_value = 'AI_SELECT'.( you can give here the event name)
    WHEN OTHERS.
ENDCASE.
Define event with the same name above( AI_SELECT),
You can set the value of fields based on the first field value within this event.
Thanks,
Dharmakasi.

Excel files with fields linked to other excel files take a long time to open from SharePoint library

Trying to track a problem for a user.
Most of the documents opened from our SharePoint libraries appear to open in a timely fashion.
But...one user has noticed an issue, and I just noticed something with her files that are a little less common than other stuff we've seen.
she has a lot of pricelist excel files. there are some master price list files, and then other files that link to fields from within the master files.
the files that contain links to other files appear to be the ones that open very slowly.
the files are being opened via excel itself, not the owa viewer or editor.
is there a trick to setting up either the library, the site, site collection or web app... or some client-side setting that affects how quickly/efficiently excel will open files that link to other excel files shared within sharepoint?

Hi carphuntin_god,
According to your description, my understanding is that when you click a hyperlink which redirect to other files , the file are opened very slowly via excel client.

Populate field based on other lookup field in form

Hello,
In a list item in Infopath, I have a field which looks up a location. You can select the location in a dropdown list.
I want to fill another field with the manager name of the selected location. That manager name is a field in the other form also. In a Sharepoint workflow you can do such a thing (look for a specific list item in another list, based on a selected field in
that list).
To summarize: if I fill the location field with info from another list, I want to automatically fill another field with the manager of that location - which is also in that other list.

Hi mRRRc1,
For achieving your demand , please take steps in the InfoPath as below:
Open the list which contains the look up field using InfoPath.
Create a Data Connections from SharePoint list: Click From SharePoint List control under tag DATA -> Input your site URL in the Data Connection Wizard page -> Select the original
list -> Select Location and Manager field -> Enter a name for this data connection(such as Test) -> Finish.
Create a Rule for Location look up field :
Condition: LocationLookUp is not blank
Rule type: Action
Run these actions: Add “Set a field’s value”

Report field link based on another field value...

Hi.
Got another Q. I have a report with two columns A & B. Column B value is a link. Is it possible to show column B as a link only when column A <> value, and when A = value B shows just text N/A
Thnks.
Mike

Yes, it's possible. One way (probably not the only way) is to use a case or decode in your select statement. If A<>value, then have case/decode generate the link, otherwise have it generate the text.
Then, in your report attributes for that column, just leave it as a regular column. I.E., don't use the built-in column link feature. That feature makes all entries in that column into a link.

In a document library, offering only certain options for fields based on others selected

Hi, I have a document library, and when someone uploads an item to that library, they are presented with a form to select properties. I have 4 properties I want them to select (really 6, but the first two are Name and Title). The issue is that these 4 properties
depend on each other in this way:
1st property: I use a lookup to offer 4 choices, "A" "B" "C" or "D" in a dropdown.
2nd property: I want to offer the user a choice of 4 items in a dropdown, based on what they chose for the 1st property. (if they chose "A", then offer "1" "2" "3" or "4", if they chose
"B" offer "5" "6" "7" or "8", etc.)
3rd property: same thing as above, but now based on what they chose for the 2nd property (if they chose "1", offer "a" "b" "c" or "d", if "5" offer "s" and "t")
4th property: again based on 3rd property.
How can I do this? can I write some sort of custom form that can do this?

What you're trying to do is commonly refererd to as 'Cascading Drop Downs'. These are a common lack in SharePoint.
There are lots of ways to do that, my favourite to use jQuery or Javascript:

Can you display info from 2 text fields in 1 other text field in a form?

Im trying to make a form where you enter an address. I want that info to display in another part of the same form as well. When I get to the City and State, I want those to be 2 separate fields where you enter that info. Down below, I would like those to display in the same field with a comma separating. I want to do this mostly because you never know what the length of the city name will be and dont wan the state to be so far away to the right of the city jsut to compensate from possible long city names.
I know how to make it display those field in other parts of the form normally, just not how to double them up. I figured if the form was named "text1, text2" or "text1+test2", that might work but it didnt

Im thinking thats how im going to have to do it, i just want it to show up more like
RICHMOND, VA
instead of
RICHMOND VA
because some cities are way long and im a little crammed for space

XSLT List View Web part with Inline Editing changing value for one field changes the other lookup field

Hi
It's a bit of a weird one. In an XSLT List View web part when Inline editing is enabled if I change the date column, it changes the lookup field column as well. This behavior only occurs if the lookup list has more than 20 entries. Below 20 and we are
OK.
Let me explain by example:
MileStones List - Having more than 20 items
Tasks List - having a lookup to the Title field from MileStones list. Also having a due date field.
Simple web part page with one XSLT List View web part for Tasks having inline editing enabled.
When I edit the first record's due date and press enter (which saves the changes and moves onto next record) and change the due date on second record without even touching the MileStone field. Press enter to commit changes and you see the milestone changing
on first record!
The wierd thing is that if the MileStone list has less than 20 items all works as expected.
Any pointers will be appreciated
Thanks

Hi,
This is a known limitation when working with complex fields like Lookup field.
A workaround is that we can avoid using the inline edit feature when there are
complex fields in a list.
You can take a look at this KB from Microsoft Support to get more details:

Linking a select field with a text field in a DW form.....

I did try to search for this but nothing came to my attention. Apologies if it is already in the forum.
Is it possible to have a "select field" link with a "text field"? In other words The select field will provide different venues to choose from, in this case "Blog, Trade Show, Friend, Photo Magazine" and then after the choice is made a text field appears that allows you to provide details re. your choice. For example if you choose "Trade Show" from the select field the text field will then appear and prompt you to detail WHICH Trade Show. Something along those lines. Any assistance will, as always, be appreciated.

You need scripts for this. Try this jQuery tutorial

Dynamic selection field display

Hi
Can we display field values for a field from Dynamic selection ?

Hi,
Yes, you can display field values in dynamic selection field.
If I understood your question correctly, you are talking about the dynamic selection used in reports ( For eg. ME2N). The field which are appearing in dynamic selection shows the field values. ( you can press F4 and check the field values).

Return Code 0XFFAB411C received when setting selected field for timestamp

I have a time stamp field that I want to change the selected fields (the fields that determine whether the time stamp gets updated)
When I select ALL fields and save I get the return code of 0xFFAB411C.
I have ran verify repair on repository, no change
I have archived and unarchived, no change
I have deleted the field and recreated it with the same result.
When I create the field it defaults with selected fields "ALL" I need to add all the fields and remove 2-3 fields but I get the error message.
I have added fields one by one until I get the error message, then try it with just the last field but I do not get the error.
Any ideas?

FYI this is the response from SAP regarding this issue.
Please refer to SAP Note 1283688 which documents the limitation while
using time stamp fields.
As this is a Database limitation and currently can't be removed, please
consider the following options :
1) Since most of the fields are to be included, leave selected fields
with [All]
2) Split the table fields to 2 (or more) groups and add a Time stamp
field to each group
3) Lower the number of fields that should be tracked by the Time stamp
field
If both solutions are still not valid to use by the business, please
refer to SAP Note 1156293 on how to file an enhancement request.

Fields won't stay selected when trying to calculate.

I'm sure I'm making some basic mistake as I am new to acrobat (using XI). I am simply trying to do some very simple calculations. I want to add about 4 fields together for a total and then multiply that total by a fixed number.
I went into form editing, brought up the properties dialog for the field where I wanted the total to go, clicked on calculate, selected "the value is...sum +" button, pressed pick, a list of all the fields came up, I selected fields I wanted totaled, hit ok..........no fields actually appear in the box below the "value is" button.
I tried the "simplified field notation". same thing...what I typed didn't show up after hitting ok.
HELP!!!!!!
Thanks in advance.
