Date field validation

I have a date field on my form call order_date. I had used the application validation process against this item, and when the query button on this page is press, the will bw erroron the page against the item field. I had to delete the validation and write a javascript validation for the iitem thus:
<scripttype="text/javascript">
<!--
function val_orderdate()
var today=new Date();
x = document.getElementById("P4_order_date")
if (x.value > today)
alert("Order date is later than today!");
//-->
</script)
But it is not working at all upon inserting data into the the field later than today's date.
Please how can this work. Help.
Thank you.

Greetings,
First of all you got two errors in the script tags.
<script type="text/javascript"> and not <scripttype="text/javascript">
</script> and not </script)
I recomend you using firebug to detect things like these.
Because without proper sintaxe you may be lost for hours trying to repair what is already correct!
Second recording a variable with a date isn't enough, you must cast it to date or else it won't know it is a date.
you can do so like this:
x = '2009/12/23';
x = new Date(x);
Now x contains a valid date in javascript so you can compare it.
You should however use apropriate formats as the complete date string is probably not what you want,
an example of a complete date:
Thu May 07 2009 16:37:09 GMT+0100
For more insights on date formats check this page:
http://programming.top54u.com/post/Javascript-Convert-String-to-Date.aspx
Here is working code for you with the complete date because i am unaware of what you need as a format!
     <script type="text/javascript">
     <!--
     function val_orderdate()
          var today=new Date();
          x = document.getElementById("P4_order_date").value;
          x = new Date(x);
          if (x > today)
          alert("Order date is later than today!");
     //-->
     </script>

  • What  are the usual date field validations

    Hi all,
    can you please tell me what  are the usual date field validations in selection Screen
    Thanks and regards ,
    Madhavi pilla

    Once you declare it as TYPE SY-DATUM, usually that is enough.  Sometimes we will also check that it is not less than '18000101' or greater than '99991231'.  Or if you have a specific date range that applies to your program you could check the field contents against that. I hope this helps.

  • Date Field validation in APEX 4.0

    Hi,
    I am using APEX 4.0 for developing my application. I have an SEARCH region in which I have an DATE item with format MM/DD/YYYY. When I enter the date with any junk characters like 'XXXXXXX' then it throws me an validation as "Invalid Date Format" message both in Notification and Inline (Below date Item). This is an APEX 4.0 inbuilt validation for date field and its not the validation created by me in that page explicitly.
    My Issue is that I do not want to Display the validation message inline to the field and I need the message only in Notification. What setting I need to do in Date Item to remove the inline validation message form that field.
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi,
    In your validation process, under the error message section
    (i.e) in the error message display location: set inline in notification give this,
    so that the notification will be fired only in message, not inline to the field.

  • Mandatory date field validation different if using a custom form... why?

    We are using SharePoint 2013 and have a custom list in which one of the fields is a mandatory date/time field.  When using the default "New" form, if I don't add any date and click the Save button, the form looks like it is submitted and then
    comes back with some red text indicating that I need a value for my date/time field.  If I simply create a new custom "New" form, and then click on the Save button without adding my date/time value, I get a black (not red) validation error. 
    A couple things are going on here.  The error is displayed BEFORE any submit happens, unlike when using the default New form.  The validation message is different and is listed in black rather than red.  For other mandatory fields, the form
    does get submitted and then displays the validation error in red, although it is a different validation error message than when using the default New form.
    I don't care that the text is different, but it is an issue for us that the text is not in red.  Does anyone know why this is happening?
    Thanks - Peter

    Hi Peter,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to the alert message is red in the custom New form.
    Please open the custom New from in SharePoint web site, and save without type anything in the data field, then the alert message(black) displays. Click on F12 to open IE developer debug tool, click on the arrow , then click on the black message to find the
    HTML element id for the message, in my test, the id is ctl00_ctl42_g_fed984e8_446c_4fdb_a279_328c2c369be5_ff21_ctl00_ctl00_DateTimeField_ctl00 .
    Then click on Settings->Edit page, add a Content Edit web part to the custom New form page, edit the web part and add the following code into the Edit Source of the web part:
    <style type="text/css">
    #ctl00_ctl42_g_fed984e8_446c_4fdb_a279_328c2c369be5_ff21_ctl00_ctl00_DateTimeField_ctl00{
    color:#FF0000;
    </style>
    If you have multiple mandatory fields, you need to find each id for each field alert message, add #id{…}
    into <style …> </style> section.
    I hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • Date field valid possibilities

    I am trying to create a date field and have a calendar date picker to pick the date.  How do I define the field to get the calendar date picker?
    I see where to put in a default value where I can create a query to select a date (select to_char(sysdate +1, 'DD-MON-YY') from dual).
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Nandita,
    Dear Nandita,
    The dates are just stored as "inverted dates"
    This is even implemented as pure ABAP statements:
    CONVERT date to inverted date ... and
    CONVERT inverted date to date.
    See the documentation on these keywords. It is just the 9er complement of the real date, example from your question ( 80039898):
    99999999
    -19960101
    80039898 => value for GDATU.
    Please assign points if it useful.

  • Adf validation date field timestamp

    while doing some validation of comparing date fields with timestamp fields i am finding inconsistent behavior in jdev 11 1 1 5. is this known issue. what is best way to do EO level declarative Compare Greater Than / Less Than validations on fields which are of type date and timestamp ?

    First of all, "ADF" on the view side (which is where UIX is) has undergone some dramatic changes.
    10.1.2 and before: you had UIX
    10.1.3.x: ADF Faces 10g
    11.x: ADF Faces 11g (which, although is JSF like ADF Faces 10g, the component set is so different as to be almost a "new thing")
    So, when you're asking about the view technologies, 10.1.2, 10.1.3, and 11.x are dramatically different. ADF Business Components, even though they have gone through changes, are "the same enough" across the versions as to be understandably similar, but not the view technologies.

  • Validating a Date field in ADF which only contains a time

    Hi,
    I'm having problems in JDeveloper 10121 validating a "time" field in a jsp.
    * I have this field: <html:text property="InterviewTime" size="4" maxlength="4" />
    which is a date. I want the user to enter a date in 24 hour format. I.e. 0000 to 2400.
    * In my view object the interview time has a format of Simple Date (kkmm).
    * In the entity object this is a date column.
    If I submit with a valid date then it's fine. However if for example I enter 3333 and save I get a date parse error. The problem is where do I handle this?
    I added validation to the entity object but this only gets called when the date is valid (I imagine it is further on in the lifecycle?)
    I also added some regex to the onCommit method but again this gets called later in the lifecycle.
    Can anybody help?
    Thanks,
    Andy

    Frank,
    I can't use ADF Faces as I'm using 1012.
    I have a method validation on the entity object as shown below:
    public boolean validateInterviewTime()
    Date interviewTime = getInterviewTime();
    if ( interviewTime != null )
    LOG.info("Testing");
    SimpleDateFormat sd = new SimpleDateFormat("kkmm");
    String interviewTimeString = sd.format( getInterviewTime().getValue() );
    LOG.info("interviewTimeString"+interviewTimeString);
    if ( !Pattern.matches( "((0?[0-9]|1[0-9]|2[0-3])[0-5][0-9])", interviewTimeString ) )
    LOG.info("BAD");
    return false;
    else
    return true;
    However if the interview time is outside the range anyway (i.e. not between 0000 and 2359) then it will not even get as far as validating it as I get an invalid date exception called?
    So I need to catch it somewhere else.

  • SBL-DAT-00398 error msg for User Field Validation

    Hi All,
    I have created the following field validation on the User field "Division": Len([<Division>])>0 AND InStr([<ltValidation_OU_ITAG>],[<Division>])>0, As the "Division" field is free text, the porpuse of the validation is to prevent the user from entering in this field any value that is diffrent from the ones available in the custom field "Validation OU" via the User Owner Page Layout. The validation works OK for Admin Role via the User Admin Page Layout but a SBL-DAT-00398 error msg stating " Field '<Division>' does not exist in definition for business component 'Occam Current Employee' " appears when users with other roles are trying to update this field via the User Owner Page Layout.
    I have contacted OD Customer support and they validated this in several POD saying this "is most likely a defect in the application" and a CR will be submitted to dev team to fix it sometime in the future.
    I am wondering though if support isn't making life easy here stating the above...:
    1. Anyone encountered this error before? (couldn't find any trace for this on My Oracle Support)
    2. Anyone aware of field validation limitations for the 'User' entity?
    3. Workaround suggestions are welcomed
    10X for you help!
    Alex.

    Error(), fatal(), info() and warn() issue FacesMessages that get picked up by the MessageGroup component.
    By adding in the uicomponent you can target the facesMessage so that it gets picked up by the Message component associated with the field causing the error.
    But, to get the label to show the error as well, you need to throw a validationError. See this tutorial for more informaiton:
