Auto fill as I type from another table? and more

Hi!
I´m new to Numbers
I want to create a document where I can have all my Invoice records
So I want to have a sheet (clients) where I can keep all my clients with their info (column A: names, column B: Address, column C: city, column D: code, column E: Company Name)
Then in another sheet (could be a specific month, such as october) I want to put all the invoices I create in october, one by row, so I want to start typing the name and want to numbers automatically can fill it up with that especific client wich I´m typing along with all his other columns (B to E) so on with all other rows
I need it to be specific because I don´t always work for all my clients
Can it be done?
Hope I explain myself
Sorry for my bad english

Alex,
The LOOKUP function should work nicely here.
Let's say that your client list table is named "Clients".
Here's an approach:
In Column B, write:=IFERROR(LOOKUP($A, Clients::$A, Clients::B), ".")
Fill Across.
Select the cells with expressions in Row 2 and Fill Down.
As you add names, the other data will be broght in.

Question on Creating table from another table and copying the partition str

Dear All,
I want to know whether is there any way where we can create a table using another table and have the partitions of the new table to be exactly like the used table.
Like
CREATE TABLE TEST AS SELECT * FROM TEMP;
The table TEMP is having range and hash partitions.
Is there any way when we use the above command, we get the table partitions of TEMP to be copied to the new table TEST.
Appreciate your suggestions on this one.
Thanks,
Madhu K.

may this answer your question...

I want to reference a cell from another table and fill it with text

I I have several tables that update each other with data from the previous one. These tables are identical and follow each other by date. In each table is a cell (B1) where a persons name goes. the cell (B2) references another cell from a previous dated table. Some days, consecutively, no name is entered in to cell B1. I want cell B2 to always refer back to the most recent table with a name is cell B1. How can this be done?
I have written this formula (applied to cell B2 of this example) already: IF(Day 1::B1="","",IF(Day 1::B1≥"",Day 1::B1)) but it only references the previous days table and stops there. Some days nothing is inputed into cell B1 causing causing the following days table cell B2 to show "0".

"I am having trouble getting the formulas you suggested to work. I am not sure where the problem is coming from. Could you look at the following spreadsheet and tell me where I am going wrong? The following pic shows Day 1 and AUX tables. In Day 1 cell B1 a Drivers name is entered. As you can see by the formula that you gave the B2 is for "Product" not the drivers name "David"."
Hi br,
The formulas provided above apply directly to the set of tables shown with them. In each of these tables, the target cell, containing the name of the driver for that day is cell B2 on the table for that day.
For Day 1, the driver is Huey, found in cell B2 of Table 1, and the cell reference to retrieve the information from that cell is =Table 1::B2
The formula in B2 of Aux uses INDIRECT to build that cell reference from the fixed text string "Table ", the calculated value ROW()-1, and the text string "::B2"
ROW() returns the number of the row in which the function sits. In B2, that's row 2, and ROW() returns 2. -1 subtracts 1 from that value, leaving 1. In B2, ROW()-1 returns 1.
The ampersand is the concatenation operator. It joins the value before it to the value following it. The result is a text string. in the INDIRECT part of the formula, there are two & operators, one after "Table ", the other after ROW()-1.
"Table " & ROW()-1 & "::B2" with the result of ROW()-1 as the value between the two text strings.
"Table " & 1 & "::B2" = "Table 1::B2"
INDIRECT( ) takes that text and converts it to the cell address that it represents.
B2: =IF(LEN(INDIRECT("Table "&ROW()-1&"::B2"))<1,"",INDIRECT("Table "&ROW()-1&"::B2"))
The first instance on the string in the formula is a test to see if there is anything in the target cell. If not, the formula returns a null string. If there is at least 1 character there, the second instance of INDIRECT is called on to return the name to B2 of the table Aux.
Compare your formula below:
B4: =IF(LEN(INDIRECT("Day 3"&ROW()-1&"::B2"))<1,"",INDIRECT("Day 3"&ROW()-1&"::B2"))
As shown, this is the formula in B4 of your Aux table. In Row 4, ROW() returns 4, and ROW()-1 returns 3.
So the three elements of the cell address constructed in INDIRECT are "Day 3", 3, and "::B2"
The cell being addressed is "Day 33::B2", cell B2 on the table named Day 33.
The error results from there being no table with that name.
The fix (to the table part of the reference) is to change the first text string to "Day " (including the space after the word Day).
The fix to replace Product with the driver name is to change "::B2" to ::B1"
To fit the names of your day tables and the location of the driver's name on each, your formula in B2 should read:
B2: =IF(LEN(INDIRECT("Day "&ROW()-1&"::B1"))<1,"",INDIRECT("Day "&ROW()-1&"::B1"))

Hi,
Why do you need to combine the two action togather. You can get the things done in two steps.
Create table tab1 as select * from tab2;
Then you create any contraint that you want to create on tab2 using 'alter table add constraint'.

Looping delete statement where table name is coming from another table

Hi All,
We have to write code to delete records from active tables of WDSO.We have 5 DSO so inspite of writing delete statement for each table we want to put all table names into one table and then loop through it .but we are getting error when we are refering that table field which has active table name.error is :
"dictionary structure or table is either not active or does not exist "
As per my understanding in a delete /select /insert /update statement we need to put table name (whose field we are refering ) it can't be replaced by a variable .
ex: v_table = 'EMPLOYEE' .
DELETE FROMv_table WHERE EMP_NAME = 'ABDC' .
is wrong and it must be like
ex : DELETE FROM EMPLOYEE WHERE EMP_NAME = 'ABDC' .
but we want to make our code dynamic .
Can you please suggest a way so that we can read the table names from another table and delete data based on some selection fom those tables .
I tried variants ,perform etc and even searched FM for the same but not found a solution .Your help will be greatly appreciated .
Thanks in advance .
Regards,
Jaya

Hi,
You can change your statement as follows:
DELETE FROM (v_table) WHERE EMP_NAME = 'ABDC' .
However, I would not recommend this. There is a standard function module RSAN_ODS_DATA_DELETE which allows selective deletion - that should be a safer way to do this. You can

Data from another table, to be displayed on table based screen

I have a block that is based on one table, if I found the record(s) on that table I will display it on the forms, No Problemo. But, if record(s) was not in the said table, I have to get the data on another table and then display it on the same forms. Is there someone who can show me how I can get the data from another table and display it on screen that is based on another table?

suppose you have 2 table emp_n and emp with same table structure
first check data from emp_n if not found then go to emp
try it:-
you will change block name at run time(query data source)
by
emp_n is old
emp is new
set_block_property('emp_n',QUERY_DATA_SOURCE_NAME,'emp');
if no data found in emp_n table then
change the block query name by
set_block_property('emp_n',QUERY_DATA_SOURCE_NAME,'emp');
in next try it will go to emp table for fetching record

Breakout table (fill table with matching data from another table)

Hi
I've been trying to study old discussions about breakout tables. I feel I'm close, but still no cigar :-)
In plain english, I'm trying to autocreate rows with data on a table, based on matching values from another table. E.g. have a table to display all rows where type = AssetX
I have attached a screenshot of my "master table" called Assets:
I'm looking to prefill Asset name, Total from this table and populate a new table called e.g. Greenhouse
Where I'd be adding more data (date, income, expense).
Any help whould be greatly appreciated.

FETCHING VALUES IN MULTI RECORD BLOCK FROM ANOTHER TABLE USING SELECT STATEMENT.

Hi,
I have one multi record block in which i want to fetch values
(more then one record) from another table using select statement
IN KEY NEXT ITEM.I am getting following error.
ORA-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows
Thanks in advance.

In your case I see no reason to use non-database block and to try to populate it from a trigger with a query, instead of using the default forms functionality where you can associate the block and the fields with table, create where clause using bind variables and simply use execute_query() build-in to populate the block. The power of the forms is to use their build-in functionality to interact with the database.
Also, you can base your block on a query, not on a table and you dynamically change this query using set_block_property() build-in. You can use any dynamic queries (based on different data sources) and you simply need to control the column's data type, the number of the columns and their aliases. Something like creating inline views as a block data source.
However, you can replace the explicit cursor with implicit one like
go_block('non_db_block_name');
first_record();
FOR v_tab IN (SELECT *
FROM tab
WHERE col_name = :variable)
LOOP
:non_db_block_name.field1 := v_tab.col1;
:non_db_block_name.field2 := v_tab.col2;
next_record();
END LOOP;

Getting description of product from another table

Hi,
I am getting the level from the user, and based on that creating an internal table. I am getting product code (PRODH) and level (STUFE) from one table (T179), and getting product description (VTEXT) from another table (T179T). I need to create a single internal table (PVS) with all three fields.
How do I do that? This may seem like a very simple question, but I have only been teaching myslef ABAP for about one week.
Once I can prepare this table, I will use a function to display it.

How to use an Object Type from Another Database

How to get the data from one table and insert into another table

Hi,
We have requirement to build OA page with the data needs to be populated from one table and on save data into another table.
For the above requirement what the best way to implement in OAF.
I understand that if we attach VO object instance to region/page, we only can pull and put data in to only one table.
Thanks

You can achieve this in many different ways, one is
1. Create another VO based on the EO which is based on the dest table.
2. At save, copy the contents of the source VO into the dest VO (see copy routine in dev guide).
3. commiting the transaction will push the data into the dest table on which the dest VO is based.
I understand that if we attach VO object instance to region/page, we only can pull and put data in to only one table.
if by table you mean a DB table, then no, you can have a VO based on multiple EOs which will do DMLs accordingly.Thanks

How to populate a table based on a row selection from another table.

Hi, i just started to use ADF BC and Faces. Could some one help me or point me a solution on the following scenario .
By using a search component , a table is being displayed as a search result. If i select any row in the resulted table , i need to populate an another table at the bottom of the same page from another view. These two tables are related by primary key . May i know how to populate a table based on a row selection from another table. Thanks
ganesh

I understand your requirement and the tutorial doesn't talk about Association between the views so that you can create a Master-Detail or in DB parlance, a Parent-Child relationship.
I will assume that we are dealing with two entities here: Department and Employees where a particular Department has many Employees and hence a Parent-Child relationship.
Firstly, you need to create an Association between the two Entities - Department and Employees. You can do that by right clicking on the model's entity and then associating the two entities with the appropriate key say, DepartmentId.
Once you have done that, you need to link the two entities in the View section with this Association that you created. Then go to AppModule and make sure that in the Available View Objects: 'EmployeesView' appears under 'DepartmentView' as "EmployeesView via <link you created>". Shuttle the 'DepartmentView' to the right, Data Model and then shuttle
"EmployeesView via <link you created>" to the right, Data Model under 'DepartmentView'.
This will then be reflected in your Data Controls. After that, you simply would have to drag this View into your page as a Master-Detail form...and then when you run this page, any row selected in the Master table, would display the data in the Detail table.
Also, refer to this link: [Master-Detail|http://baigsorcl.blogspot.com/2010/03/creating-master-detail-form-in-adf.html]
Hope this helps.
