Adding a new text field using forms personalization

Hello all,
In our seeded People Screen in HR, i need to add a field and assign a value based on the employee record to that field only for certain business groups.
Can i achieve this using personalization? Also how to populate the value in the field which should also sync with the current record displayed in the existing form.
Thank You
KK

Forms Personalization is a feature of the Oracle Enterprise Business Suite (EBS) not a feature of Oracle Forms. Please post your question in the General EBS Discussion forum. If you have a general Forms question, by all means, ask it here! ;-)

Adding fields using forms personalization

Hi All,
Is it possible to add the fields to a form using forms personalization.
Thanks and Regards,
Zaheer.

No. But if you have fields that are not being used, you can change the prompt and repurpose them (provided the data type does not have to change) and validations can be manipulated.
Have you looked into creating descriptive flex fields?

Adding a new text field in Shopping Cart screen

Hi,
I am new to SRM and I am working on SRM 5.0
My requirement is to add a text field for buyer's note with unlimited length similar to Approver's note in Shopping Cart screen.
I have seen in the forum that many have done this earlier and i need step by step procedure to complete this task.
I am able to create text field in Text Schema, but this field is not reflecting in shopping cart screen. Do i need to do any thing extra apart from maintaining in Text schema?
Can you please send the detailed procedure to do this task?
Thanks in advance.

Vamsee

Hi Saritha,
Thank you for your help. In fact, i have gone through this link and followed the steps there. But, the Text ID is not reflecting in my shopping cart.
We are using SRM 5.0. The requirement is to add a new text field with unlimited length similar to the existing Approveru2019s note field in Shopping Cart screen at header level.
I have followed the steps mentioned below.
1.Go to SRM IMGSRM Server->Cross-Application Basic Settings->Text Schema
2.Execute Define Text Types and then select the entry BBP_PD Text Object and click on Text Type.
Here, create new entry for ID as ZHTXT and Description and save it.
3.Execute Define Text Schema and then select the existing Text Schema SC ( Shopping Cart) and click on Texts for Schema.
Here, assign the newly created Text ID with details Header/Item etc.
4.I am not executing the last step Define Fixed Values for Texts, as the Text Schema SC is already assigned Transaction Type Transaction Type SHC.
Please suggest do I need to perform any extra steps apart from Text Schema to reflect the Text ID which I created in my Shopping cart screen? Or do we need to code anything on ITS side?
Thanks in advance.

Vamsee

Display of calculated field value in same field using form personalization.

Hi All,
What could be the solution, if i want to have the formula on same display field.
say..your entering value in grams and convert into ml in the same field of (:Q_RES.DISPLAY5)
Conversion formula:
(TO_CHAR(TO_NUMBER(:Q_RES_DISPLAY5)-(0.35))/((1.025)*(0.9986))/3)
When I move out of THIS field, it should convert using above formula and store it in same field.
Appreciate your efforts.
Thanks a lot...

New Text Field To Be Added in Audit Management

Hi All,
I need to create new text fields in addition to the existing fields in Audit Management screen for all the audit components in the TEXT TAB in transaction PLMD_AUDIT.
I would like to know is it possible or not and if not possible then what is the alternate way to include more inofrmation.
Will be rewarded...
Regards,
Ram.

Hi Ram,
New text field can be added in the texts tab of plmd_audit transaction is achieved by ,
1) The following entries has to be maintained in the view V_TTXIDI Object, Id, Meaning.
Object-select cgpl_text
Id : you need to define(this id you will refer in the initial value of the attribute in the BADI-name of your text field).
Meaning : short description of your BADI.
save your entries & activate it.
2) Implement this BADI "PLM_AUDIT_TEXT_ID"
within the method "GET_TEXT_IDS" we need add our code for adding the new text fields.Within this method the code for standard text fields would be existing.
3) In the attributes tab of the ZCL_DEF_IM_PLM_AUDIT_TEXT_ID -class interface ,you need to pass the initial value,which has been defined in the view "V_TTXIDI".
4) Finally activate your BADI.The newly added text fields would be available in the PLMD_AUDIT tcode.
Hope this solves your requirement.

Keerthi

How can we disable Block Level Trigge using Form Personalization

Hi,
I want to disable block level trigger(WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE) using forms personalization at responsibility level.
Can any one please give me the answer.
it's urgent
Thanks and Regards,
Dhana

No, Firefox is user choice rules over the "wants" of individual websites as far as disabling contextual menus and the keyboard commands.
Placing a transparent image over the image will keep the less technical user from saving the main image. If they do try to save it all they'll get is the transparent image overlay.

PHP/MySQL: 'Add New' text field from menu in form

I am creating an events posting website. I'm having a hard time finding the right words to describe this, but: I'd like the user to select a venue from the drop menu, but then if it isn't there, to select 'add new' from the dynamic menu, and have a new text field activate where they can enter in the new venue name. My database is currently set up so the event table links to the venue table through a venueID. Is there a way to insert the name from the new text field into the venue table, and have the rest of the form still submit to the event table? Sorry this is so wordy, but I'd appreciate any help. Thank you.

You cannot add a new value to a related table at the same time as inserting a record. So, to do this, you would need to use both JavaScript to add the new text field, and PHP conditional logic to handle the update to both tables. It's certainly doable, but not with the Dreamweaver server behaviors. You would need to do a lot of hand-coding yourself.
The way that I approached a similar problem in my "Essential Guide to Dreamweaver CS4" was to permit NULL values in the column that holds the foreign key, and insert nothing into that field if the value hadn't already been registered in the related table. I created a static value in the dynamic menu for "Not registered".
After inserting the new record with "not registered", the user then needs to enter the new value in the related table.
Once that has been done, display a page that lists all records. In the SQL, I use a LEFT JOIN to ensure that "not registered" items come up as well. You can then edit the item to add the value from the dynamic menu.
It's not the most elegant way to do it, but it works if you don't have the skill or time to hand-code all the logic yourself.

Sum of the fields in SO form using Forms personalization

In sales order form, Once we enter the item and qty in a line . The qty entered should be multiplied by volume of an item avaiable in mtl_system_items_b and should be displayed in the line level DFF(attribute14). Thus we get the line level Volume
Once n number of lines are entered in SO form . The sum of line level volume should be displayed in the header level DFF(attribute14.
I am able to get the Line level volume using global variable.
Could any one please let me know is it possible to get the sum of line level volume in the header DFF using forms personalization.

My requirment is to get the "Line level volume" information in line level DFF and "order level volume" information in header level DFF of a Sales Order form.
line level volume = unit_volume*quantity
Order level Volume = sum of n number of line level volumes = line level volume of line 1.1 + line level volume of line 1.2 + line level volume of line 1.3 ......
For Example consider an item 2E00001010 item. The volume of this item is mentioned in the physical attributes of an item. we can get the volume of this item from unit_volume in mtl_system_items_b . say for example the unit_volume of this item is 20 litres.consider another item 2X000X101 and unit_volume is 15 litres.
Now in sales order in line 1.1 i have entered an item 2E00001010 and quantity as 10. In line 1.2 i have entered an item 2X000X101 and quantity as 10 and saved the sales order.
1.1 line level volume = 20*10 = 200
1.2 line level volume = 15*10 = 150
Order level volume = 200 + 150 = 350
So as according to the requirement in
1.1 line level DFF(LINE.ATTRIBUTE14) 200 should be displayed .
1.2 line level DFF(LINE.ATTRIBUTE14) 150 should be displayed.
In header level DFF(order.attribute14) 350 should be displayed.
By using below forms personalization i am able to get the Line level Volume information displayed in Line level DFF(Line.attribute14)
seq 10
description : Line Level Volume
Trigger event : when-New-Item-Instance
Trigger Object : Line.Ordered_quantity
Level : Site
Action Seq: 10
Type: Property
Object Type: Global Variable
Target Object: XX_VOL
Property Name : Value
Value = =SELECT to_char(nvl(Unit_volume,0)) from mtl_system_items_b where segment1 =:line.ordered_item_dsp and organization_id = 89
Action Seq: 20
Type: Property
Object Type:Item
Target Object: LINE.ATTRIBUTE14
Property Name: Value
Value = =to_number(:global.XX_VOL)*:line.ordered_quantity
I would be glad if any one could let me know how to get the Order level volume and get displayed in the Header level DFF(order.attribute14) using forms personalization.

Capture who changed data using Forms Personalization & changed to what data

Dear All,
When the data is changed to a new data (say the price has been changed), I need to capture
a) the original data
b) newly changed data
c) who changed the data
into a newly created custom table using FORMS PERSONALIZATION.
How do I do using FORMS PERSONALIZATION?
Thanks.
Matthew

Hey guys, I did it.... and it does work. Here is what I did.
I created a table to capture the required data.
CREATE TABLE XYKA_PRICE_CHANGE_DTLS
LIST_LINE_ID NUMBER,
PRODUCT_ID VARCHAR2(240),
PRODUCT_ATTR_VAL_DISP VARCHAR2(4000),
NEW_PRICE NUMBER,
DIV_NAME VARCHAR2(240),
PRICE_CHANGED_BY VARCHAR2(6),
PRICE_CHANGED_TIME DATE,
OLD_PRICE     NUMBER
Create two procedures which needs to enter data into this XYKA_PRICE_CHANGE_DTLS table. We will pass values from FORMS PERSONALIZATION by calling this
procedure in the ACTION tab.
CREATE OR REPLACE procedure PRICE_CHANGE_DETAILS(price IN number,updated_by IN varchar2,disp IN varchar2,prod_id IN varchar2,line_id IN number,head_id in number,old_price in number) AS
v_name varchar2(240);
BEGIN
select name into v_name from qp_secu_list_headers_v where list_header_id = head_id;
insert into XYKA_PRICE_CHANGE_DTLS(NEW_PRICE, PRICE_CHANGED_BY,ITEM_NUMBER,PRICE_CHANGED_TIME,PRODUCT_ID,LIST_LINE_ID,PRICE_LIST_NAME,OLD_PRICE) values (price,updated_by,disp,sysdate,prod_id,line_id,v_name,old_price);
COMMIT;
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE procedure APPS.PRICE_CHANGE_DTLS(price IN number,updated_by IN varchar2,disp IN varchar2,prod_id IN varchar2,line_id IN number,head_id in number,old_price in number) AS
V_PRICE_CHANGED_TIME date;
V_PRODUCT_ID varchar2(240);
V_LIST_LINE_ID number;
V_count number := 0;
BEGIN
select count(*) into v_count from XYKA_PRICE_CHANGE_DTLS
WHERE LIST_LINE_ID = line_id AND PRODUCT_ID = prod_id AND NEW_PRICE = price;
if nvl(v_count,0) = 0 THEN
PRICE_CHANGE_DETAILS(price,updated_by,disp,prod_id,line_id,head_id,old_price);
else
null;
end if;
END;
In fact, I want to capture the current price and the changed price in pricing which is OPERAND field in qp_list_lines_v table (OM MANAGER > PRICING > PRICE
LISTS > PRICE LIST SETUP)
In the FORM PERSONALIZATION, enter the seq and the description

How to add new text field in standard report

how to add new text field in standard report?

Hi,
I presume you are talking about a report display in ALV and u wish to add a column to it .
If it is a global requirement ,as in table being used there in ALV can be modified, then you can append the table and the system should pick up the same automatically from there.
Otherwise , you can make a Z program . Modify the catalog being used in ALV.

Creating new text field dynamically

Hi,
can anybody let me know how can we create new text fields dynamically in JSF.
Basically the GUI will have a button/command link ,when clicked should create a new text field and then when the user enters any value in the new text fileld the formbean should be able to capture the value.
so the user will have the choice of creating any number of text fields depending on the requirement.
is javascript the only solution for this or can we do this JSF also?
Thanks in advance.

You may find this article useful then: [http://balusc.blogspot.com/2006/06/using-datatables.html]. The 'add new row' example is described here: [http://balusc.blogspot.com/2006/06/using-datatables.html#AddNewRowsToDatatable]. If it concerns only one field, just use only one column. You can for instance even use List<String> instead of a List<RowObject>.

How to commit the PO form after each line using form personalization

Hi All,
I have a requirement, wherein we need to commit the Purchase order form, once a line is entered or before moving to the next line using form personalization.
Please assist me in getting it done.
Regards,
KR.
Edited by: 834152 on Feb 17, 2011 9:13 PM

Hi Sandeep,
Thanks for your response.
At the line level in the purchase order form, we have configured DFF with one field for train# and 14 fields for the container#.
In order to prevent the user from entering the same container# twice in the same PO. We need to save the PO on each line. So that when the user move to the next line, our program will check with base tables and confirm whether the entered container# is free to use or not.
Regards,
KR.
