Assigning a Value to a Base Table BLock Field

hi,
I have a form in which a block is a base table block . i need to change the value of a field. currently it shows the value of a field from the Table on which the block is based . I need to change the value of that field to display some other value of another table.
i have a written select statement like this
select name into vname from ws_emp where ecode = 101
then i have assigned to this base table field
:bt_person.ti_v_name := vname;
this i have created in the base table blocks Post query
but it is not assigning value
pls correct me and suggest me if there is any other better method to do this

That SHOULD work in the Post-Query trigger of the block, but doing that is never a good idea. By replacing a base-table field with any value, it causes Forms automatic processing to lock the row immediately, so no other person running your form can call up the same data. And it causes Forms to think you need to update the record, so the record's status is changed to 'CHANGED' from 'QUERY'.
It would be better to create a non-base-table field in the block, and put the name into that field.

Non DB item in a base table block, gives frm-40202 error.

Dear All,
We are using forms6i as a front end. To simulate the error, consider the following example.
1.Create a multirecord emp block.
2.Add a non database item in the base table block.
3.Assign any value to the non database item, in the when new record instance trigger.
4.When i say F7 or F8, my block asking me like, field must be entered. Which means, my record status changed to Insert. But there is no change in base table record, since i modified only in the non base table item.
Please validate, whether i am doing anything wrong in my technique.
Regards,
Balaji

If you have a value to be used as the default value then you can use "Initial Value" property in the item level for the Non Database Item. If you do this it wont give you any problem during the query. If you create a new record then the value which you have put as the default will come automatically.

Updating a Base Table Block Record

We have a form where there is a multi array base Table block. this is used for generating employee number for various depts. the columns are like this with some sample data
Dept Start No end No Start Date End Date
sales 1001 1100 01-Jun-2009 31-12-2050
Accts 2001 2100 01-Jun-2009 31-12-2050
HR 3001 3100 01-Jun-2009 31-12-2050
and the data is populated from its table. These Data were created at the backend while implementation and is not modified for some long time. Now the client wants to modifiy the data . i.e they want to add new set of Start nos and End nos for the existing Dept So they will add at the bottom of the Block
like this
sales 1101 1200 01-Apr-2011 31-12-2050
when they add this the end date of the existing record should get modified with sysdate as they add the new records. at any time they can add new set of numbers of any number of depts.
can u please guide me how to do this ?

If I understand correctly, you need to take the following data:
Dept Start No   end No   Start Date   End Date
sales 1001       1100     01-Jun-2009 31-12-2050
Accts 2001       2100     01-Jun-2009 31-12-2050
HR    3001       3100     01-Jun-2009 31-12-2050and change it so it is like this:
Dept Start No   end No   Start Date    End Date
sales 1101       1200     01-Apr-2011   31-12-2050
when they add this the end date of the existing record should get modified with sysdate as they add the new records.First, I will assume you are using Oracle Forms (since your question was in the Forms forum) but you didn't specify a version. In Forms, you could easily put this logic in the Block Pre-Inser t Trigger. You'll have to set the SYSDATE through DML rather then requery the block after changes are saved. This is easier than trying to find the existing record in the block and setting the SYSDATE.
at any time they can add new set of numbers of any number of depts.Is this data used for anything more than just reference? If so, what is the key value and how does making changes like this affect the existing data and relationships?
Just from the small description you gave, the process sounds very closed - meaning it is not easily changed. If this is true, than you probably need more than just "Use a Pre-Ins Trigger" answer. You also need to know how to update all of the related records that just changed because of the new department number and for this answer we'll need more information. ;)

Assign a value to a component of a field-symbol

Hi,
I'm struggling with field-symbols, hope someone can help me with this:
I have two field-symbols:
- <row> which for example can have structure E1P0002 assigned to it;
- <row_it> which for example can have stucture P0002 assigned to it.
Certain components of <row> should be assigned to components of <row_it>. The names of the components differ however. For instance: component STRAS_40 of <row> should be assigned to component STRAS of <row_it>, NAME2_40 of <row> should be assigned to NAME2 of <row_it>, etc.
Depending on the structures assigned to the field-symbols, these fields are not always available.
Any ideas how this can be solved?
Thanks,
Patrick

Hi do as follows,
<row_wa> is the structure of type P0002
and <row_it> is a field symbol of table type
and another field symbol <fs> type any.
if <row>-STRAS_40 is not initial.
assign component STRAS of structure <row_wa> to <fs>.
<fs> = <row>-STRAS_40 .
endif.
if <row>- NAME2_40 is not initial.
assign component NAME2 of structure <row_wa> to <fs>.
<fs> = <row>-NAME2_40 .
endif.
append <row_wa> to <row_it>.
Hope this explanation of mine helps you,
Murthy.

How to assigne multiple value in key of read table

Hi gurus,
I want read table xxxx with key field1 = ' xxx' or field1 = 'yyy'.
how to assign multiple value as key for the same field while reading internal table.
Regards
sagar

Hi ,
You can loop the internal table like
loop at <table xxxx> where field1 = ' xxx' or field1 = 'yyy'
or you can write two read statements to read the internal table in wrk area.
read table <table xxxx> with key field1 = ' xxx'.
if sy-subrc <>0
read table <table xxxx> with key field1 = 'yyy'.
if sy-subrc = 0
endif.
else.
do your data processing.
endif.

Tabular form with non base table field

I want to develop a tabular form with
1. A non-base table edit field to accept a value
2. Insert/update another table based on the input value
3. Also, computed field on each row based on other fields on the records (like post-query trigger in oracle forms at block level - for each row)
Thanks,
Rachna

Thanks for your reply.
Varad, I like the link you sent me. It has a lot of good information.
I created a process (under page processing) called "Update/Insert Process" that dosn't seem to be working.
Question, I created a manual tabular form with SQL Query and created a process (under page processing) called "Update/Insert Process", then I check for each record in the tabular form. If the old value <> new value then I update/insert in the new table.
Any step by step will be highly apprciated - to create process/validation etc.
Thanks,
Rachna

How to update base view Block

Hi,
I have a View ( is based on more than one table) and created base table block based on that view.
Question is, how can I update and save the data from Oracle forms ?
I'm using Oracle forms 4.5 and Oracle8.0.6 database.
Thanks in advance.

Hi James
Form based on Complex views:
Records can be updated by writing the code in ON-UPDATE Trigger,
Code for Inserting a record can be written in ON-INSERT trigger
For delete u can write the code in ON-DELETE or KEY-DELREC (this worked for my form)
Locking the rows can be done by ON-LOCK trigger.
Here is the sample code....
try to write a package and in that package write procedure for, insert, update, delete, lock, Call those procedures in your trigger which should be on your block level. Block's property that you have to set is: go to the property pallette:

Duplicate item value in a Multi-Record Block

Is there a way to chek duplicate value entered in multi record block?
I have seen some solutions in this forum however nothing has worked for me till now. (using the formula, creating hidden items & creating group etc)
Thanks in advance,

To see if there are any other records in the block with the same value, use Kevin Clark's famous function to trap duplicates. You can find Kevin's function write up here:
Re: checking for same rows in a tabular
From Kevin's post:
Create a field PK_COPY in a control block.
Create program unit function COMPARE to compare two input params returning 1 if they match else 0.
Create a field in the datablock PK_MATCH, calculation property formula, formula COMPARE(:DATA_PK, :PK_COPY)
Create a field in the control block NO_OF_MATCHES, calculation property summary, summary type SUM, summarised
item PK_MATCH.
Also, your control block requires the Single Record property set to yes, and the base table block requires the Query All Records property set to yes.
WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM on DATA_PK
:CONTROL.PK_COPY := :DATA_PK;
if :NO_OF_MATCHES > 1 then
message('You have already used that one');
Raise form_trigger_failure;

Order by on Non-base table Item

Hi,
I have a base table block on Dept and some of the non-base table items(which are emp table and being populated through post-query).
So, i have some base table items and non-base table items on the same block.
No my problem is, i have to do ORDER BY on one of non-base table items..
How can i do this ?
Thanks in advance.

The obvious answer is to create a view upon which to base the block, or alternatively you could use a FROM Clause Query so that you don't have to set the values in your POST-QUERY trigger.

Assigning Javascript value to ABAP variables

I have written the HTML code mixed with Javascripts to create a table in the 'View' of a BSP Component.
I was able to set the value of assign the value of ABAP parameters into HTML fields.
This table has some input fields. I need to fetch the value of input parameters which has been entered by screen on an event which is present in Overview Page.
I can calulate the value mentioned in input field but i am not able to assign the same value to ABAP parameter for further processing.
I have already referred the following link but it did not work.
Assign Javascript variable to Abap variable

Calculated non-base table field in a tabular form

I am struggling with creating a non-base table calculated field in a tabular form in ApEx 3.1
Can you point me in the right direction
I thought this would be fairly easy to do, but I cant work out how to do it
Requirements
1) Tabular Form based on a table with QTY and PRICE columns
2) TOTAL is a non-base table field, based on QTY * PRICE
3) If the Qty or Price changes, the TOTAL should be re-calculated
Example
QTY   PRICE TOTAL
===    ===== =====
3       5          15
10      50         500
20      3           60
Environment
ApEx 3.1, Oracle 10 and Oracle 11 databases
I recommended to upgrade to a newer version of ApEx but the request was rejected so Im stuck with 3.1

Thanks, but its not the solution that I am after
I am looking for a solution that will ...
       1) not require the calculated value TOTAL to be stored in the table
and 2) re-calculate the TOTAL when I modify the dependent values (QTY and PRICE) before I save the changes to the database
I am still looking for a solution if anyone can help

Want to assign a value to a dff (from a sql )whenever the record is saved

Hi
I am new to OAF and would like to know how can i extend my VO and assign a value returned by a sql which returns a value on the basis of some fields from some fields in the same VO .
Thanks
Narinder

Narinder,
You can extend the SEEDED VO by creating a new VO and using the extends property in the VO wizard to refer to the seeded VO. Now in the new VO query you can make changes as appropriate to retrieve your values. The last step is to substitute this VO in the Applicatin so that the newly created Custom VO is used instead of standard to make sure your changes are visible.
Best would be to read the section on Substitution in the Dev guide.

How to retrieve a column field value from an ADF table ?

All,
I have a backing bean where I have bounded a field of an ADF table.
I would like, in the bean, to read the value of that field so that I can use it inside a task flow router.
The question: how to read a value from a ADF table column field ?
In the bean I have the getter and setter of the RichInputText ADF table field. But when I type:
System.out.println("the name is: " + this.getName().getValue());
or
System.out.println("the name is: " + this.Name().getValue());
I get a null pointer exception.
Thanks in advance,
Sergio.

Thanks Marvin, but this is not really what I'm looking for. Or at least, it does not sounds like to be :)
I need to get the value contained in a row cell of an ADF table.
Let's say the table (two rows, three cells) contains these values:
"table_A", "123", "John"
"table_B", "456", "Peter"
When I click on the first row, I need the value: "table_A". Once I got that value, I extract the last char, in this case: "A", and then I call a specific task flow from a task flow router (specified in the task flow router Cases property).
When I click on the second row, the same process applies, only the router now points to another flow view.
So to summarize, I need to get the value of a row cell in an ADF table. How to do that from within a javaBean in JDeveloper 11g Release 2 ?
This is what I have in the bean; so far I've bounded the related row cell (herkunft) to the bean. Each time I select a row on the ADF table, the function setHerkunft() runs - I see that from within the JDeveloper console - but when I try to get its value, I get a null value - hence the surrounding if statement.
package bean;
import javax.faces.component.UIComponent;
import javax.faces.context.FacesContext;
import javax.faces.event.ValueChangeEvent;
import oracle.adf.view.rich.component.rich.input.RichInputText;
+public class taskFlowBean {+
public RichInputText herkunft;
public static String taskFlowView = "C";
+public taskFlowBean() {+
System.out.println("taskFlowBean constructor call");
+}+
+public void setHerkunft(RichInputText herkunft) {+
System.out.println("set herkunft");
this.herkunft = herkunft;
if (this.getHerkunft().getValue() != null )
System.out.println("herkunft is: " + this.getHerkunft().getValue());
+//here taskFlowView will set accordingly with the herkunft value.+
+}+
+public RichInputText getHerkunft() {+
System.out.println("get herkunft");
return herkunft;
+}+
+public String getTaskFlowView() {+
System.out.println("get taskFlowView ! : " this.taskFlowView);+
return this.taskFlowView;
+}+
+}+

Sergio.
