How to create a display value and a return value for an item

Hi! I have an item on a form. I want the default value for my item to be :":APP_USER", but the return value, to be the id of my user. I tried to create a PL/SQL Expression for the default item, but it doesn't work. What do I miss?
It should be something like this, but it's not.
begin
select first_name || ',' ||last_name as "Employee",
id_employee -- display value,return value
from employees
where id_employee = :APP_USER;
end;
Does anyone know?
Thanks!
Vitaly

Hi VItaly,
Display value and return value concept applies very well in case of a Combo box if i am correct, I don't know what type of item is your's.
But any way, you can have a workaround like,
Create a hidden item such that it's default value should be ID of the user which can be get from db by using :APP_USER.
Use the this item for your references.
I think this will meet your requirement.
Thanks

    Dear Eshwer
    It is bcoz, the said account groups (Sold To Party and Ship To Party) are not created in the sales area 1000 / 10 / 00.
    To create a customer master, you have to go to XD01, select the Account Group, Company Code and the respective Sales Area and execute.  In the Customer Master, you have three tabs, viz.General Data where you have give address details of the customer, then in Control Data, you have to assign the respective Recon Account and in Sales Area Data, you have to maintain the customer's sales related details.  Once you give all these datas and save the data, a customer code will be displayed at the bottom.
    Now go to VA01, input the sale order type and the sales area and execute.
    thanks

  • List manager displaying view value and not return value

    Hello,
    I'm using a list manager based on pop-up LOV. When I click on an item on the pop-up window, the window is closed and the return value is inserted in the page textbox. I would like to have (as expected) the view value, and have the return value used just as field value during form submit.
    I'm using Application Express 2.1.0.00.39
    Thanks.
    Eugenio

    Unfortunately, you can't. The way to do it is to return the display value into the List Manger item and then use the APEX_UTIL.STRING_TO_TABLE function to loop through the values and fetch the IDs. You will need to make sure the LOV items are unique and don't contain any colons.
    I hope that helps

  • How to get both, the ResultSet and Output (return value) from Oracle Stored Procedure

    Hi! I am doing a conversion from MSSQL to Oracle with C++ and MFC ODBC. Any comment is appreciated!! I have Oracle 8i and Oracle ODBC 8.1.6 installed.
    My question is how to retrieve the return value AND ALSO the resultSet at the same time by using Oracle function without modifying my souce codes (except puttting mypackage. string infron of my procedure name, see below).
    -- My source code in C++ with MSSQL ....
    sqlStr.Format("{? = call ListOfCustomers(%i)}", nNameID);
    RcOpen = CustomerList.Open(CRecordset::forwardOnly, sqlStr, CRecordset::readOnly );
    Where CustoemrList is a Crecordset object...
    IN DoFieldExchange(CFieldExchange* pFX) I have ...
    //{{AFX_FIELD_MAP(CQOSDB_Group)
    pFX->SetFieldType(CFieldExchange::outputColumn);
    RFX_Long(pFX, T("Name"), mCustoemrName);
    //}}AFX_FIELD_MAP
    // output parameter
    pFX->SetFieldType( CFieldExchange::outputParam );
    RFX_Int( pFX, T("IndexCount"), mCustomerNumber);
    -- m_CustomerNumber is where i store the return value!!!
    -- In Oracle Version, i have similar codes with ...
    sqlStr.Format("{? = call mypackage.ListOfCustomers(%i)}", nNameID);
    RcOpen = CustomerList.Open(CRecordset::forwardOnly, sqlStr, CRecordset::readOnly );
    -- I have oracle package/Body codes as following...
    create or replace package mypackage
    as
    type group_rct is ref cursor;
    Function listgroups(
    nameID NUMBER ,
    RC1 IN OUT Mypackage.group_rct ) return int;
    end;
    Create or replace package body mypackage
    as
    Function listgroups(
    NameID NUMBER ,
    RC1 IN OUT Mypackage.group_rct )return int
    IS
    BEGIN
    OPEN RC1 FOR SELECT Name
    from Customer
    WHERE ID = NameIDEND ListGroups;
    END
    return 7;
    END listgroups;
    END MyPackage;
    Ive simplified my codes a bit....
    null

    yes, it is exactly what i want to do and I am using Oracle ODBC driver.
    I tried using procedure with 1 OUT var fo numeric value and the other IN OUT ref cursor var instead of function, but error occurs when I called it from the application. It give me a memory ecxception error!!
    sqlStr.Format("{? = call ListOfCustomers(%i)}", nNameID);
    RcOpen = CustomerList.Open(CRecordset::forwardOnly, sqlStr, CRecordset::readOnly );
    it seems to me that the ? marker var is making all the trouble... can you please give me any more comment on this?? thanks!

    How to create a new variant and a job sheduled to use it for the exisisting programs

    Hi
    1. The ALV Grid Control is a tool with which you can output non-hierarchical lists in a
    standardized format. The list data is displayed as a table on the screen.
    The ALV Grid Control offers a range of interactive standard list functions that users need
    frequently (find, sort, filter, calculate totals and subtotals, print, print preview, send list,
    export list (in different formats), and so on. These functions are implemented in the
    proxy object class. You as the programmer have the possibility to turn off functions not
    needed. In most cases the implementations of the standard functions provided by the
    control are sufficient. However, if required, you can adjust these implementations to
    meet application-specific needs.
    You can add self-defined functions to the toolbar, if necessary.
    The ALV Grid Control allows users to adjust the layout of lists to meet their individual
    requirements (for example, they can swap columns, hide columns, set filters for the
    data to be displayed, calculate totals, and so on). The settings (list customizing) made
    by a specific user are called a display variant. Display variants can be saved on a userspecific
    or on a global basis. If such display variants exist for a list, they can be offered
    to the user for selection. If a display variant is set as the default variant, the associated
    list is always displayed based on the settings of this variant.
    2. REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY
    REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY
    REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE
    REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE
    3. Use of Field Catalog is to determines the technical properties & add formating information of the column.
    6. all the definition of internal table, structure, constants are declared in a type-pool called SLIS.
    7.fieldcat-fieldname
    fieldcat-ref_fieldname
    fieldcat-tabname
    fieldcat-seltext_m
    5. Form user_command using r_ucomm like sy-ucomm rs_selfield type slis_selfield.
    Sap provides a set of ALV (ABAP LIST VIEWER) function modules which can be put into use to embellish the output of a report. This set of ALV functions is used to enhance the readability and functionality of any report output. Cases arise in sap when the output of a report contains columns extending more than 255 characters in length.
    In such cases, this set of ALV functions can help choose selected columns and arrange the different columns from a report output and also save different variants for report display. This is a very efficient tool for dynamically sorting and arranging the columns from a report output.
    The report output can contain up to 90 columns in the display with the wide array of display options.
    <b>The commonly used ALV functions used for this purpose are;</b>
    1. REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_DEFAULT_GET
    2. REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4
    3. REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_EXISTENCE
    4. REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET
    5. REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE
    6. REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE
    7. REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY
    8. REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY
    9. REUSE_ALV_POPUP_TO_SELECT
    Purpose of the above Functions are differ not all the functions are required in all the ALV Report.
    But either no.7 or No.8 is there in the Program.
    <b>
    How you call this function in your report?</b>
    After completion of all the data fetching from the database and append this data into an Internal Table. say I_ITAB.
    Then use follwing function module.
    CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
    EXPORTING
    I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM = 'Prog.name'
    I_STRUCTURE_NAME = 'I_ITAB'
    I_DEFAULT = 'X'
    I_SAVE = 'A'
    TABLES
    T_OUTTAB = I_ITAB.
    IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
    WRITE: 'SY-SUBRC: ', SY-SUBRC .
    ENDIF.
    ENDFORM. " GET_FINAL_DATA
    The object F_IT_ALV has a field, the activity ACTVT, which can
    contain four permitted values: 01, 02, 03 and 70. Each of the
    activities 01, 02 and 70 controls the availability of particular
    functions (in the menu and the toolbar) of the ALV line item list:
    a) 01: "Settings -> Display variant -> Save..."
    b) 02: "Settings -> Display variant -> Current..." and
    "Settings -> Display variant -> Current header rows "
    c) 70: "Settings -> Display variant -> Administration..."
    Activity 03 corresponds to the minimum authorization, which is the
    most restricted one: The user can only select layouts which have
    been configured already. In particular, all of the other functions
    named above are inactive with activity 03.
    Now if you want to permit a user to change the column selection and
    the headers as well as to save the layout thus created, for example,
    but if you do not want to permit the user to administrate the
    layouts, you grant him or her the authorization for activities 01
    and 02.

  • Can anybody suggest me how to creat match code id and object

    hi Gurus,
    can any body suggest me how to create match code object and match code id..
    in my program i need specific values in search help..
    to avoid confusion in selecting the values.
    i need only selcted values..
    thanks in advance.
    vijay chavan

    Hi
    In Older SAP versions Match codes are used, now they are replaced by SEARCH HELPs
    there 2 types of search helps
    Elementary and Collective
    see the doc and create accordingly
    1) Elementary search helps describe a search path. The elementary search help must define where the data of the hit list should be read from (selection method), how the exchange of values between the screen template and selection method is implemented (interface of the search help) and how the online input help should be defined (online behavior of the search help).
    2) Collective search helps combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.
    3)An elementary search help defines the standard flow of an input help.
    4) A collective search help combines several elementary search helps. The user can thus choose one of several alternative search paths with a collective search help.
    5)A collective search help comprises several elementary search helps. It combines all the search paths that are meaningful for a field.
    6)Both elementary search helps and other search helps can be included in a collective search help. If other collective search helps are contained in a collective search help, they are expanded to the level of the elementary search helps when the input help is called.
    CREATION:
    Go to SE11  Tcode
    select search help
    give the 'z' search help name and create
    select the selection method ur table name eg : 'mara'
    dialog module 'display value immediately'.
    add the field whatever u want and lpos = 1 and spos = 1 and check import and export parameter.
    where left position when displaying and spos = search position
    and then save and activate ..

    Collective search help Combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.
    A Collective search help provides alternative search
    Paths by combining elementary search helps.
    Only one search help can be attached to a field, table or data element. Several search paths are therefore attached with a collective search help.
    A collective search help also has interface parameters like
    an elementary search help.
    Like an elementary search help, a collective search help has an interface of IMPORT and EXPORT parameters with which the search help exchanges data. Using this interface, the collective search help can be attached to fields, tables and data elements exactly like an elementary search help.
    Parameter assignment needs to be done for each of the
    Included search helps.
    When you define a collective search help, there are no components for describing the dialog behavior and data selection; instead the included search helps are listed here. You must assign the parameters of the collective search help to the interface parameters of the included search help for each inclusion.
    User may choose the tab and thus the elementary
    search maethod.
    When we execute the search help SCUSTOM, we are confronted with a dialog which gives us an option of either restricting
    By 1)Search for customer according to booking
    2)Search for customer according to name.
    These are effectively the elementary search helps (SCUSTOM_BOOK and SCUSTOM_NAME) which have been included in the collective search help SCUSTOM.
    HOT KEY
    The hot key is used to select the elementary search help from the collective search help and to enter the restrictions in the dialog box for restricting values directly from the entry field. If the user often searches for values using the same search help, this procedure can save time.
    Steps to create a Collective Search Help
    1)Enter the search help name and click on create.
    2)Choose Collective search help radio button option as the search help type.
    3)Enter the search help parameters.
    4)Instead of the selection method, we enter the included
    search helps for the collective search help.
    5)We need to assign parameters for each of the included
    search helps.
    6)Complete the parameter assignment by clicking on the push button
    7)Collective search help offers the user to obtain F4 help
    using any of the included search helps.

  • How to create a Custom UIView and How to instantiate that ?

    How to create a Custom UIView and How to instantiate that ?
    In Flash, all we need to do is create a MovieClip and assign it a class name in the library.
    Instantiation is a simple matter of:
    var newclass:CustomClass = new CustomClass({initialization_data:1652});
    addChild(newclass);
    At this current point in time, my understanding of creating custom UIView in xcode is limited to the understanding that you have to:
    1: Forward declare the class in the header.
    2:
    ]newclass *CustomClass in @interface's {}
    and THEN
    @property (nonatomic, retain) newclass *CustomClass;
    in the header file also.
    3: Nib initialization in the implementation file in viewDidLoad and do "addSubview".
    ==============================
    Based on my limited understanding at this point, I find the need to
    @property (nonatomic, retain) newclass *CustomClass;
    at the header somewhat limiting...as it denotes you must know how many instance you will create in the application before hand.
    I believe I am wrong here, hence, my question is, how do I add custom UIViews with initialization codes in real time ?

    hi,
    one workaround i could think of is using the CM views to search for content that belongs to a category and display it in a custom way.
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/portal/html/plsqldoc/pldoc904/wwsbr_api_view.html
    this only allows you to search for the meta-data available in the CM views but not the content of an item that is available when doing a search.
    in the next major portal release we will have a publich search API that can be used for these type of requirements. you can execute your search and format the results in the way you want.

    Hi,
    You will need profiles to control the following behavior:
    - Which metadata to be shown in the checkin form and search form
    - Define default values to certain metadata
    - Make metadata editable, hidden, info only etc
    - Allow the user to see only relevant metadata, for example you could have 50 metadata defined, but all you need for the user to input is 10 for say HR documents, you can show only these 10 metadata for the user to contribute

  • LOV query is invalid, a display and a return value are needed

    hello - i am having this issue and can't get around this when creating a popup LOV based on sql.
    below is LOV query. as you see the view has only two columns. I tried various ways by giving alias to columns in query but nothing works. What did I miss here?
    select description,inventory_item_id from xx_apex_inv_v
    1 error has occurred
    LOV query is invalid, a display and a return value are needed, the column names need to be different. If your query contains an in-line query, the first FROM clause in the SQL statement must not belong to the in-line query.

    Did you try it like this?
    select description d, inventory_item_id v from xx_apex_inv_v

  • Display Report Level Filter value and Input Controls Value

    Hi,
    Please let me know how to display Report Level Filter value and Input COntrol values in the report.
    I have 2 tabs in the WebI Report. The first tab has the summary details about the other tabs like reprot desc, prompt values, reprot filter values,etc.
    In the 2nd tab I have the actual report which has input controls defined, prompt values and global level report filters.
    Can anyone please tell me how to display the Report level filter values and the Input Control values in the first tab report.
    For ex: Tab 2 has a Report level filter: Region = NA
    I need to display in Tab 1 in as Region: NA
    I used the function ReportFilterSummary but that is giving me other details, I want only the object name and the value.
    Also how to dispaly the Input Control values in the tab 1.
    Please let me know if you have any suggestions for this issue.
    Thanks

    did you try
    =ReportFilter([Year])
    if you are making report filter over the year, it will return the value of the filter
    by the way, the filter should be applied over all the report not to a specific block to be able to get the correct value
    the Input control also considered as report filter, only if you're applying them on the level of the report, if you applying an input contron over a specific block or chart, you will not get the values for ReportFilter
    good luck
