How to enter values in the selected list by pressing f4

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem can any one help me in solving this?
When we go to any table thorugh se11 or se16 to display all the records based on the selective fields like pernr, company code, benefit plan in a Z-table
Here when I want to display records of selected benefit plans by using the field bplan. here when I go to that bplan field and press f4 then gives me a list of benefit plans, from that list I have to select proper benefitplan for selected records of that plan
1. Question:
I have two new plans , can any suggest me how to add in the f4 list of that field. Is it done through any program?
Another issue,
I have a report program, when I execute it gives me selected list fields like pernr, date, and some more fields. if you select some fields with the help of f4 , we can choose correct value,
2 Question,
I have two new parameters to be added in the f4 list of the fields in the Needed very urgent?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi
You can create a search for that field with more than one fields and yu can add the search help for that field
see the doc
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 ..

How make default values in the selection criteria of BEx query????

Hi all
I have to create a brand new query, in the selection criteria(Prompts) I have two prompts. one prompt should show current budget year and second prompt should show next budget year, both prompts are mandatory and default.
Can any one please let me know how to obtain current and next budget year??? do I need to write any customer exit or do i need to create a offset???
Two prompts are using same infoobject 0fiscper which is mapped to ECC Table MBEW and field is LFGJA.
Thanks

HI sathiyaa,
so you want to show user with two prompts one will show current year and the other next year value by default.
//tell me that if you user change the current year value for ex: it will show 2011 by default.. and user changed it to 2009.
you want to show 2009 year results or 2011 even though he changed the prompt.
Here i'm considering that even though user changed current year to some other year still you want to show the current year results.
Create a customer exit variable for calyear with ready for input (checked).
customer exit code in CMOD :
when ' customer exit var for cal year'
IF I_step = 1.
clear l_S_range.
l_S_range-low = sy-datum+0(4).
l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
L_s_RANGE-opt = 'EQ'.
ENDIF.
if i_step = 2.
data: zyear(4) type c.
zyear = sy-datum+0(4).
ex: l_s_range-sign = 'I',
l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
L_s_range-low = zyear.
appen l_s_range to e_t_range.
after this create a variable offset
create a new selection in the structure, drag the KF and calyear restricted by current year variable . Copy the same selection and insert it as a new selection, go back to the calyear restriction, right clik on the variable. specify variable offset and enter + 1.
or search in sdn how to create variable offset it will help you

How to make columns in the select list dynamic

Hi
I need to make columns in the select query dynamic.I have three tables.Table 1 contains master information lets say name of group(A group consists of members of various skill sets) and its period(A group is of specific period lets say for 18 months).Table 2 contains different skill sets corresponding to a group i.e there is one to many relationship between table 1 and table 2.Table 3 contains months information of skill sets.For example if skill set 1 is required for 5 months then there will be 5 rows(for each month) in table 3 corresponding to a skill set i.e there is again one to many relationship between table 2 and table 3.Tabale 3 will also contain man month value for perticular month.I need to show all the periods of a group and its sum of man month value for all skill sets.
If group1 is of 6 months (starts nov2006 and ends Apr2007) and has 5 skill sets then there will be one entry in table 1 and 5 entry in table 2(For skill set).For each entry in table 2 there will be 6 entry in table 3(for each month).I need to write a query which would display
Group name nov2006 dec2006 jan2007 feb2007 mar2007 apr2007
Gr1 10 15 21 17 18 22--These are sum of man month of all skill set for a particular groupIf Gr 2 is of 9 months then it would disply all the information in respective months.i.e for group 2 nine months information and group 1 six months information
Pls help

How to Refer the Selected value in a Select List

I have a page item which is a select list. I have a button in my region which when clicked will call a process. This process takes the current value of my page item as a parameter. However, when I select a value from the Select list and click on the button, the page item is still submitting the earlier value, it is not getting updated with the value I selected in the select list. Can someone tell me how I can get the page item value to be updated with the value I selected from the choice list? I tried calling a javascript function from the element attribute of this select list onchange="javascript:setValue(this);") and was trying to set the value of another hidden page item with the value of this select list but then the function is not getting called as well. My function code is something like
function setValue(pThis)
for (var i = 0; i < pThis.options.length; i++) {
if (pThis.options[ i ].selected){
result= pThis.options;
html_GetElement('P2_HIDDEN').value = result;
P2_HIDDEN is my hidden page item

How do you know this? Have you used Debug mode to track what is happening when the button is pressed? This will show any changes to item values in session state during page submit and page show processing.
Can someone tell me how I can get the page item value to be updated with the value I selected from the choice list?
This should happen automatically with a select list item, if the button is correctly defined to perform a page submit. It will not happen if the button performs a redirect. What action is defined to occur when the button is pressed?
I tried calling a javascript function from the element attribute of this select list onchange="javascript:setValue(this);") and was trying to set the value of another hidden page item with the value of this select list but then the function is not getting called as well.

P2_HIDDEN is my hidden page item
As detailed above, this should be completely unnecessary, however as an aside, html_GetElement is a very out of date method of accessing an item. What version of APEX are you using? (Always specify which version you're using when you ask a question, to allow us to determine the most appropriate solution to the problem.)

How to default a value in a select list

Hi
I have an item on the page which is displayed as a select list.
The select list has an lov that returns 3 values as follows:
ACAD1M
ACAD2H
ACAD3T
the sql for this lov is as follows:
select CAL_TYPE d,cal_type r
from igs_ca_type
where s_cal_cat='ACADEMIC'
It needs to return the values in the order as shown above, however if the user does not select anything from the select list, I want it to default to the value in the middle of the list(ACAD2H)
I tried using default on the item but I could not get this to work.
Could someone explain how I can get the select list in HTMLDB to default to the value that I want regardless of which position it appears in the select list it always seems to default to the value at the top of the list.

Hello Kay,
A default value for a select list must be set to a legitimate returned value from the select list LOV query.
The default value should be set in the item "Default" section. In the "Default Value" field you should enter your query – in a form of a PL/SQL Function Body – and set the "Default Value Type" field accordingly.
The following is an example of code I'm using to set the default value of a select list to be the first displayed option (set by the user, and recorded in the dispord column):
declare
l_sno number;
begin
select sno
into l_sno
from mis_mess_users
where dispord = (select min(dispord)
from mis_mess_users);
return l_sno;
end;Using the same principle, you can use any query that will give you the result you need.
Regards,
Arie.

Select Lists - Setting and Referencing (Using) the Select List variable

I have (a login page and) 3 application pages (call them Day, Week, Month), each with similar selection lists and a chart. I have three requirements.
1) When a new selection is made, the value of the selection list variable is updated --that is, it does what select lists do.
2) I need to set the value of the Month selection list variable before the Month page is rendered for the first time -- I need to give it an initial value.
3) When navigating from page to page, say from Month to Week or Day back to Month, I need to have the value of the selection list variable carried to the new page from the value on the previous page.
It sounds simple to me -- something that one could do with an (global) application item. The logic would be like
IF :Page_Name_Flag = 'Week' THEN -- staying on the Week page
SELECT :WK_SelectList_Name INTO :GLOBAL_SelectList_Name FROM DUAL
ELSE -- new pass on this page
SELECT :GLOBAL_SelectList_Name INTO :WK_SelectList_Name FROM DUAL
SELECT 'Week' INTO :Page_Name_Flag
END IF;But that doesn't work for me. The page's select list variable seems to be NULL sometimes causing the value of :GLOBAL_SelectList_Name to be set to null. Other times, the copy from the global variable to page select list varable doesn't seem to change the page select list variable.
At http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=43250:101 (guest/Ima9Gue8t) is an example where I have each page's select list working (except on the initial visit to the page, where the select variable is null!!!). How can I get the select list value on the new page to sync with the value from the previous page?
Thanks,
Howard
Edited by: Howard (DBA in Training) on Sep 18, 2012 11:53 AM

I'm closing this because I got it to work. In the end, it worked as I had described above. There was some setting of the Select List variable, that I now have correct, that was incorrect before. I wonder what it was?

Dynamic values of a select list based on a column

Is there an easy way to build the values of a select list from a column that contains 'Red,Green,Blue" where Red, Green, Blue will be the values of the select list?

Bob,
Next time you could try this for a one row table:
WITH DATA AS
     (SELECT     SUBSTR (txt
                        , INSTR (txt, ',', 1, LEVEL) + 1
                        ,   INSTR (txt, ',', 1, LEVEL + 1)
                          - INSTR (txt, ',', 1, LEVEL)
                          - 1
                        ) AS token
      FROM       (SELECT ',' || YOUR_COLUMN || ',' txt FROM YOUR_TABLE)
      CONNECT BY LEVEL <=
                      LENGTH (txt)
                    - LENGTH (REPLACE (txt, ',', ''))
                    + 1)
SELECT *
FROM   DATAOr use this if your comma separated values are in more than one row:

How to trace the value passed by select list

Hi,
Is it possible to know what value is passed by the select list.
eg:
:p1_testid -- is the select list name .
if select list contains 3 values ... value1, value2, and value3. and I select value2 from the select list.
I want to confirm it that the value I selected is the same value passed to the query.
- select * from Test where Testid=:p1_testid;
How to trace the value of :p1_testid before query execution.
Thanks.

check your session state to see what value the select list has..
From developer tools at bottom of running page, select session, then look for the value associated with your select list..

How to display the display value of a select list

I want to display the display value instead of the return value of a select list but don't know how to do it, can someone help me?

When you created the select list item, you are ask to provide a list of values query which can either be a SQL query or a Static List, which both follows the pattern of
Dispaly;Return.
Example:
SQL query -
select 'Yes' col1, 'Y' col2
from dual
Static -
STATIC:Yes;Y
which will display 'Yes' but will actually, return 'Y'.
how did you set your select list item?
Thanks,

Dynamically change the value of a select list in form based on a table

Hi Friends,
I am using a form based on a table. I want to display two fields as select lists instead of text boxes and when a value
in a select list is selected, the corresponding values will be listed in the next select list. For example if department
value is selected in a select list the employees in that department will be listed in the employee select list. I saw a
metthod using ajax for achieving this in tabular form in Denes's sample application[Click Here| http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:176:462842537250908::NO] .
Is there any way to achieve the same for a form based on a table,

Hi Andy,
Could you tell me how I could use your example with multiple Application Items?
My page has 3 cascading select lists. The second is dependent on the first and the third is dependent on both the first and second. I thought I would just need to add the second application item as a get, but not sure what the syntax would be. I have troubleshooted to the point where my select list refreshes when I have one in the javascript...just not sure how to add the additional one?
Here's what I have (I have been referencing your 'Get Employees' page)
My Page Items:
P0_VENDOR_ID
P0_VENDOR_SITE_ID
P0_INVENTORY_ITEM_ID
My Application Items:
F_VDR_ID
F_VDR_SITE_ID
My query in the application process has both F_VDR_SITE_ID and F_VDR_ID in it.
My javascript function...this worked OK until I added the additional get.add('F_VDR_SITE_ID')
function getItems(filter, listName)
var xml = null;
var list = document.getElementById(listName);
var listvalue = list.value;
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$v('pFlowId'), 'APPLICATION_PROCESS=Set_Items',4);
get.add('F_VDR_ID', filter.value);
get.add('F_VDR_SITE_ID', filter.value);
ret = get.get('XML');
if(ret)
var s = ret.getElementsByTagName("select");
if(s){
var o = ret.getElementsByTagName("option");
var oCount = o.length;
list.options.length = 0;
for(var i = 0; i < oCount; i++){
var l_Opt_Xml = o;
appendToSelect(list, l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('value'), l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue);
list.value = listvalue;
if (list.selectedIndex == -1)
list.selectedIndex = 0;
get = null;

How to get all the values in the Select-option.

Hi,
I got the select-option field so_week, for eg. If I give 200923 to 200926 (year and week) in the selection screen and then I need to pass this value (200923) to the FM 'ZWEEK_GET_FIRST_DAY' to get the first day of the week.
My question is how can i get all the values from the select option, (i.e) i need to get 200923, 200924,200925, 200926.
Regards,
Anbu.

Hello,
I will prefer Max's solution. But just for the sake of this req.
i need to get 200923, 200924,200925, 200926
i am proposing my soln:
DATA: V_WEEK TYPE RSCALWEEK.
SELECT-OPTIONS: S_WEEK FOR V_WEEK NO-EXTENSION OBLIGATORY.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN.
DATA:
V_COUNT TYPE I,
V_ADD   TYPE I,
RT_WEEK TYPE RANGE OF RSCALWEEK,
RS_WEEK LIKE LINE OF RT_WEEK.
V_COUNT = ( S_WEEK-HIGH - S_WEEK-LOW ) + 1.
DO V_COUNT TIMES.
    RS_WEEK-SIGN = 'I'.
    RS_WEEK-OPTION = 'EQ'.
    RS_WEEK-LOW = S_WEEK-LOW + V_ADD.
    APPEND RS_WEEK TO RT_WEEK. "RT_WEEK--> Will contain the week values
    CLEAR RS_WEEK.
    V_ADD = V_ADD + 1.
ENDDO.
