Change od database field expalnation

Hi all,
My question is still not solved.
While creating Vendor (xk01) on 6th screen , there is a block PAYMENT DATA. Under that Field is Payment terms. When u press tab button it will display
Pterm                 Explanation
0123                  Pay immediate
0122                  Pay after 10 days
I have to change the explanation part corresponding some codes.
Say for   0122 I want       pay after 10 days of mat receipt.
The data in payment terms is coming from table Lfb1.
How to do that.
thanks

CMOD -> Goto text enhancements -> key words.
Then type in the name of your data element. Change the labels to what you want and save it. It will change the label of the data element on every screen in the system.

How to promt user to save changes when changing non-database fields?

Hi,
I have a form with two tabs. The datablock Block_1 on tab_2 is based on a database view. But all the displayed items of Block_1 are non-database items. Whenever a user changes some items in Block_1 and presses save button, the values from non_db items get copied to the db_items (based on view) and commit_form is called. This works fine.
But the problem here is: after changing some items in block_1, if the user navigates to some other option/form from the menu , the form doesnt promt the user to 'save the changes' and all the changes made are lost. How can I fix that?
I have a form level key-exit trigger, (which does not fire) with following code :-
Declare
X Number;
alert_is             alert;
Begin
If :System.Mode = 'ENTER-QUERY' Then
       Exit_Form;
Else
If :System.Form_Status In ('NEW','QUERY') Then
     alert_is := FIND_ALERT('TMPL_EXIT'); -- "Are you sure you want to exit?"
    X := Show_Alert('TMPL_EXIT');
    If X = Alert_Button1 Then
       Exit_Form(no_validate);
    End If;
    Else
       Exit_Form;
End If;
End If;
End;

Try to copy values to the db_items not in save button, but in WHEN-VALIDATE_ITEM of non_db items.- I created the non-db items becoz, it was asking me 'Do you want to save changes', even when I only queried data from the view (becoz i was doing some computations while displaying the items. and the form assumed that the DB items were begin changed ). Inorder to get rid of that problem, i used mirror_items (non-db) for all the db items.
So under this scenario, when i copy values to the db_items in WHEN-VALIDATE_ITEM trigger of non_db items, the form considers the db_items are changed and asks 'Do you want to save changes' even when the user has not made any changes and only queried data.

Changeing the Database Field Size

Dear All,
In Incomeing Payment i want to increase Databse Field size of Journal Remarks upto 250 character.
I updated from backend but in Incomeing Payment layout means when i move the courser on that field it
shows 50 character.
Means i chaged from bakend but it is not changing from system.
Can anybody tell me how to solve this problem ?

Dear SWAPNIL PATIL,
SAP does not allow to change the table structure and
as a workaround you could add a User Defined Field in Payments > Title to save the remarks.

Frm-40208 from running in query mode. cannot change database fields

Hi,
Could some one help me with this.
I am calling a form from another form. I am passing the parameter list to the calling form and doing a query by setting the block property. But when queries the message
FRM-40208 Form running in query mode. cannot change database fields .
I do not want the message to appear when they go the called form . Please some one could help me how could I avoid displaying the message.
Regards
Bain

Hi,
Good day! I am working with a module that also calls another form. It uses call_form with query mode parameter set to query_only. My problem is, whenever i call the other form using the call_form, it would display the called module and then as it populates the detail block of the called form, it will display frm-40208 from running in query mode. cannot change database fields per record. What I want is for the message to be displayed only once.
I have tried capturing the error by using on-error trigger, but it doesn't go to that whenever the other form was being called. I think the message has to do with the post-query trigger, because it passes some values on a dbase block objects.
Do you have any suggested solutions or workarounds to make the message display only once whenever the other form is being invoked by the call_form?
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions/ideas.
Thanks and regards,
ASantiago

FRM-40208: Form running in query-only mode. Cannot change database fields.

Hi,
I am using forms 6i where it is calling a form from a menu in query like call_form(,query_only). Now an error is occurring on call of that form ‘FRM-40208: Form running in query-only mode. Cannot change database fields.’ Though this is been handled to give a certain message from on_error message from a package from library.
Now the issue is that the error keeps on popping even after the ok button is pressed. There are number of records from the table. How can we handle the error. Any suggestion would be really appreciated!!!
Regards,
Rajesh

thanks Gred but i have resolved the issue. it seems that each row was going into query_only mode (program written such a way). therefore the error was showing even after the OK button. handled the issue from ON_ERROR trigger. anyway thanks for your time Gred!

Changing database field in jsp

Hello
I have a database table which i want to display in a jsp page. I can get this far but what i want is the table printed with the option of changing individual values of one of the fields i.e change one field in a paticular row. Could anybody let me know how i could approach this please. I am using servlets for DB access.
many thanks
john

Unfortunatey i havent started yet. I have so far created a servlet which accesses a mysql DB passes the results to a jsp page and displays them in a table. This works fine. What i want to do now is create a second jsp page where an adminstrator can change the value of the last field for any paticular row. whether this info should be displayed in a form or table i dont know.thinking about it maybe i can populate a form with an individual DB row with the option of changing the last field in the form. does this sound like it might work or has no one got a clue what i am talking about.
thanks

NI SQL database changing name of field

I'm connected to a NI database. I want to change the name of a field. Can I just change the database scheme, or is there something more to be done?

see the metalink note Note:224266.1, if you have metalink account. This note has clearly explained hoe to change DBID and DBNAME. I used to follow these steps when changing DBID and DBNAME.

Master-detail: detail field not displayed after changed by master field

I want to use the Depends on item with Clear/refresh value functionality in a master detail situation. Within the same group it is no problem to use the setter method of a field to change a second field and then displaying this new value. But in the detail group, I can not select items from the master group as a depends on item.
In the setter of the master field, the value in a field for each row in the detail (table layout) is updated. The only problem is that this updated value is not displayed, the old value doesn't change. When saving the changes, the displayed value is committed to the database. When de updated field is not displayed at all, the correct value is saved, so I know the detail field is updated.
How can I make sure the displayed value in the detail is displayed after changeing a master field? I already gave the detail field the correct partial trigger.

Wouter,
I guese you don;t see the changed value when you display the detail item because after the depends on item update changed the detail item, JSF procesing continues and the detail table changes are sent to the server which will override again the detail item attriibute, resetting it to the old, still displayed value.
So, the trick is to get PPR working. Make sure the partialTYriggers property of the detail item is set to the value of the id property of the master item. If it still doesn't work, try setting the partial triggers property on the table, instead of the individual item.

Field Explorer help, not all Database Fields available

Greetings all, I'm new to Crystal Reports (version XI by the way) and Tigerpaw. I've had some great luck editing existing reports to the specifications we've needed thus far. But now I've run into a real problem, it seems small, but it's important to me.
The one change I'm unable to accomplish on our new invoice report:
-Adding the Tigerpaw field, Account Name, to an invoice. The "Account Name" field is a field pulled from the tblAccounts Database Fields category in the Field Explorer. But when I'm in my invoice template, I do not have that category available, I only have tblSysListViewPrint and tvwr_Invoices categories, the latter does have the field for "Account ID" which is close for our purposes, but not the same. So how might I go in and pull from the tblAccounts category...specifically to get the tblAccounts.AccountName field. Copying that field from another existing report does not work either, "one or more formulas fail to compile".
I'm not sure how it decides what Database Fields to pull from, because on other reports, the tblAccounts category is available, but not the tvwr_Invoices category, so I am quite confusedl.
Hopefully this makes sense to someone out there.
Thanks.

Thanks, V361,
When I go to create a blank report, I get no databases available. My first prompt is the "Database Expert". The "available data sources" list is Current Connections (no items), Favorites (no items), History (no items), and Create New Connection. The "selected tables" list on the right is blank. I honestly don't have a clue how connect to whatever server contains those items. I realized since I first posted that I need to figure that out to make any progress. All the created reports already have the database field categories set up already, but it looks like all the available fields were not initially chosen for the reports.
So what I believe it comes down to is the fact that I need to figure out how to "Create New Connection" to find my available database fields.

How do I get a value from a portal form for a non database field ? HELP!!

I have a form based off of a table that I added a field to. The form is to allow the user to change abbreviation for a
department field ie. BIO to BIOL. for a biology department. I have a pl/sql procedure for validation using the custom option
on the update button to verify the user and update the data. I have tested to code at the sql prompt and it works.
They only difference between the prompt and the form is the non-database field new_dept_abbr was added to the
form. I don't know how to capture the value of the user input into a variable that can be used in the pl/sql.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have tried this approach
v_new_dept_abbr := p_session.get_value_as_varchar2(
p_block_name => 'default',
p_attribute_name => 'new_dept_abbr'
have tried using p_attribute_name as 'a_new_dept_abbr' but this does work and does not exist in the body of the form.
Have also tried setting the p_block_name to _session - still doesn't work.
Any ideas??
Thanks
Debbie Brennan

Thanks for the info. I tried that and it still doesn't pull the value. I have opened a TAR via metalink, but I'm not getting any
satisfactory answers. I ran across an note - 137172.1 that has this snippet of information in it.
Unfortunately, at this time (portal 3.0.7.6.2) , a non-table item cannot be
referenced in a plsql event handler, only in client side JavaScript code. This
is a known limitation and will be fixed in a future release.
I don't know how to get the value from the client side JavaScript code to a pl/sql variable. Do you?
I've been trying to get them to tell me if the 'known issue' has been addressed in 3.0.9.
I'll keep at it. Thanks so much for your suggestion I appreciate it.

Locking database fields using Servlet

Hi,
I am developing a servlet application which is used to access and/or modifying a database on a server. I am now asked for locking fields if a user is accessing the information while others have already loaded the same information page preventing it from changing the same fields that an other user is currently viewing.
The problem is that my server, running the servlet, is the only one to access the DB (using JDBC) and the connection is always done with the same username/pwd. This connection is done for a short period of time, that is, the time to create the HTML page.
Is there a way to keep the servlet knowing who is connected to it? With that feature, I could ask for username and pwd for each user and then locking tables on the DB for them.
I'm I clear enough? I don't feel so... ;)
Thanks in advance for any hints!

Can't Expand Database Fields for Query

I am having a problem creating a Crystal Report based on a BEx query. I use the SAP menu to Create New Report from Query using the MDX driver but I am not able to expand the Database Fields so that I can select them and add them to the report. I'm able to create a report with a similiar BEx query with no problems. Any suggestions?

If your purpose is to simply point to a different database (but otherwise want the exact same report), don't bother going through the database expert. When you run the report, it should ask for the database logon credentials. Just change the database as well as the user id and password. In Crystal Enterprise (or BOE), this change can be made permanent through the CMC.
