Change value in a field and reflect value of another field

Hi all,
I have a situation here where in the Single Customer View, under the Completed Task. When I changed the value of a field name called Status to "Completed" in the Edit screen and I save it, another field that is in the same screen called "Completed Date" will auto populate the current date as value. may I know how do I achieve this?
Thanks and appreciate for help
Regards,
Anson

Hi !
You've got to create a workflow rule on Activity with the event trigger Before modified record saved.
The condition will be like this :
*[<Status>]=LookupValue("EVENT_STATUS", "Completed") AND [<Status>]<>PRE('<Status>')*
Then the action of this rule will update the field *"Completed Date"* with the value Today().
But you don't have to do it for the completed date field, because it's already filled automatically when you change the status to completed.
Hope this will help, feel free to ask more !

[Forum FAQ] SharePoint 2013: Extracting values from a multi-value enabled lookup column and merge values to a multi-value enabled column

For some business requirements, users want to extract values from a multi-value enabled lookup column
and add items to another list based on each separate value. In contrast, others want to find duplicate values in the list and merge associated values to a multi-value enabled column and then
add items to another list based on the merged value. All of these can be achieved using SharePoint Designer 2013 Workflow.

How to
extract values from a multi-value enabled lookup column and
add items to another list based on each separate value using SharePoint Designer 2013.
For example, they have three lists as below. They want to
extract values from the Destinations column
in Lookup2 and add items to Lookup3 based on each country and set Title to current item: ID.
Lookup1:
Title (Single line of text)
Lookup2:
Title (Single line of text), Destinations (Lookup; Get information from: Lookup1 in Title column).\
Lookup3:
Title (Single line of text), Country (Single line of text).
Important action
1. Loop Shape: SharePoint Designer 2013 support two types of loops: loop n times and loop with condition.
Loops must also conform to the following rules:
Loops must be within a stage, and stages cannot be within a loop.
Steps may be within a loop.
Loops may have only one entry and one exit point.
2. Utility Actions: It contains many actions, such as ‘Extract Substring from Index of String’ and ‘Find substring in String’.
Three scenarios
We need to loop through the string returned from the look up column and look for commas. There are three
scenarios:
1. No comma but string is non-empty so there is only one country.
2. At least one comma so there is at least two or more countries to loop.
3. In the loop we have consumed all the commas so we have found the last country.
Things to note
There are two things to note:
1. "Find string in string (output to Variable:index)" will return -1 if doesn't find
the searched for string.
2. In the opening statement "Set Variable: Countries to Current Item:Destinations" set the return
field as "Lookup Values, Comma Delimited".
Steps to create Workflow
Create a custom list named Lookup1.
Create a custom list named Lookup2, add column: Destinations (Lookup; Get information from: Lookup1 in Title column).
Create a custom list named Lookup3, add column: Country (Single line of text).
Create a workflow associated to Lookup2.
Add conditions and actions:
Start the workflow automatically when an item is created.
Add item to Lookup2, then workflow will be started automatically and create multiple items to lookup3.
See the below in workflow History List:
How to merge values to a multi-value enabled column and add item to another list based on the
merged value using SharePoint Designer 2013
For example, they have three lists as below. They want to find duplicate values in the Title column in
Lookup3 and merge country column to a multi-value enabled column and then add item to lookup2 and set the Title to Current Item: Title.
Lookup1:
Title (Single line of text)
Lookup3:
Title (Single line of text), Country (Single line of text).
Lookup2:
Title (Single line of text), Test (Single line of text).
Important actions
"Call HTTP Web Service"
action: In SharePoint 2013 workflows, we can call a web service using a new action introduced in SharePoint 2013 named Call HTTP Web Service. This action
is flexible and allows you to make simple calls to a web service easily, or, if needed, you can create more complex calls using HTTP verbs as well as allowing you to add HTTP headers.
“Build Dictionary"
action:
The Dictionary variable type is a new variable type in the SharePoint 2013 Workflow.
The following are the three actions specifically designed for the Dictionary variable type: Build Dictionary, Count Items in a Dictionary and Get an Item from a Dictionary.
The "Call HTTP Web Service" workflow action would be useless without the new "Dictionary" workflow action.
Things to note
The
HTTP URI is set to https://sitename/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('listname')/items?$orderby=Id%20desc and the HTTP method is set to “GET”. Then the list will be sort by Id in descending order.
Use Get
d/results(0)/Id form
Variable: ResponseContent (Output to
Variable: maxid) to get the Max ID.
Use Set
Variable: minid to Current List:ID to get the Min ID.
Use Copy from
Variable: destianation , starting at
1 (Output to
Variable: destianation) to remove the space.
Steps to create Workflow
Create a custom list named Lookup1.
Create a custom list named Lookup2, add column: Test (Single line of text).
Create a custom list named Lookup3, add column: Country (Single line of text).
Create a workflow associated to Lookup3.
Add a new "Build Dictionary" action
to define the http request header:
Add a Call HTTP Web Serviceaction, click on
this and paste your http request.
To associate the
RequestHeader variable, select the Call action property,
set the
RequestHeaders property to
RequestHeader:
In the Call action, click on
response and associate the response to a new
variable: ResponseContent (of type Dictionary).
After the Call action add Get item from Dictionary action to get the Max ID.
Add Set Workflow Variable action to get the Min ID.
Add Loop Shape (Loop with Condition) to get all the duplicate titles and integrate them to a string.
Create item in Lookup2.
The final Stage should look like this:
Start the workflow automatically when an item is created.
Add item to Lookup3, then workflow will be started automatically and create item to lookup2.
See the below in workflow History List:

GREAT info, but it may be helpful to note that when replacing a portion of the variable "Countries" with a whitespace character, you may cause the workflow to fail in a few specific cases (certain lookup fields will not accept this and will automatically
cancel). I only found this out when recreating your workflow on a similar, but much more complex list set.
To resolve this issue, I used another utility action (Extract Substring from Index of List) to clear out the whitespace. I configured it as "Copy from
Variable: Countries, starting at
1 (Output to Variable: Countries), which takes care of this issue in those few cases.
Otherwise, WOW! AWESOME JOB! Thanks! :)

Fill in fields based on response in another field.

Is there a way to use one field to automatically fill in another field? For example, I have two fields (Project Name & Project Address). Project Name is a pull down menu. Can I have Project Address automatically fill in based on their choice of Project Name?
Thanks,
Mike

How to create multi axis graph with 2 on change of fields and 2 values

Hi all,
i am working for a Semi conductor company and I have been madated to evaluate Crystal report 2008 in order to include it in our legacy software.
So I have tested the soft and it seems to fit to our need.
But I have a question...
Here is a scenario i want to create in crystal but I have an error message..
Can you please tell me if twant I want to achieve is feasisible...and if so how ?
Thank you
I would like to create a percent bar chart that contains 2 on change of fields and 2 show values.
The idea behind in then to have a mutli axis chart in order to print as a line the second values.
So the first values will be my bar chart in percentage and the second value will be a sum.
Hope my description is cleat...
Thank's in advance for your support...
Have a good day

There are different ways to achieve that. The simplest i could recall is to have 2 different charts, 1st bar chart and 2nd a line chart, lay one over the other and enable the transparency on the chart which on Top ( say Line ). also, crystal will allow you to control axes etc and make them transparent..

Display data to edit based on fields and its value defined in internal tabl

I need to display data in a internal table for editing in a screen.

How to get field and variable value in oracle

Hi all,
I'm finding very difficulty to get a field value.. In oracle 11i form there is a field name called total accured and it has value 519.. but i'm not able get this .i search in all tables so iwent to help--> tools-->examine--(diagnostic)-->
i get Block :'XYZ' field: "Balance" and value:'519' and search in table shown in help.
Please can anyone help me to get this field and it's value. it is in HRMS.
Thank You

It may be a derived / calculated field, which is why you might not be finding it in a table.
For information on the last query run (may give a clue) do help -> examine, then change block to "SYSTEM" and Field to "LAST_QUERY".
Also, Help -> Record History will show you the table or view that the data comes from. May also lead to a clue.And this is what is mentioned in the doc referenced above.
Thanks,
Hussein

Combo box with multiple variables pre populating multiple fields and max value validation script help

I am creating a pdf form that will be used as a calculator, and my javascript knowledge is pretty rudimentary. I can do the simple things, some of what I need to do is over my head.
1. I believe I need to use a combo box to pre populate certain fields. I have 13 variables in the dropdown to choose from, and whatever the client chooses will pre populate three other fields (and each of the 13 variables will populate those three fields differently). I'm not exactly sure how to go about doing this. Is it custom keystroke script or does it require a document script? Also, I'm guessing that whatever script will be a series of if/then statements, correct?
2. Once all the fields have been populated (be it pre population or filled in by the customer), I need to calculate the answer which is not my main problem—I already have the proper calculations in place and they work. The problem is that the answer has a maximum value even if the actual value goes over that max number. So, the actual answer is 14 but the max value can only be 12. How do I get the calculation to replace that actual number (14) with the max number (12)? Is that in the validation tab or should that go elsewhere?
I feel like I know just enough to be dangerous but not terribly effective. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

1. There is a tutorial on this here:
http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/change_another_field
2. To set the maximum value to 12, try this as the custom calculation script for the field:
//Custom calculation script
//Get value of text field
var a = this.getField("Text1").value;
//If it is > 12, then make it 12
if (a > 12){
a=12
event.value = a
You need to replace "Text1" with the name of the field in your form.

What is the Best Approach for System Defined Fields and Default values

Hi ,
Please let me know that what can be the best approach for providing a Default value for the System defined fields when creating a User and How can we hide the System defined fields at the time of User creation

You cannot provide default values for any attributes defined in the FormMetaData.xml file. You can only provide default values for fields defined in the User Defined Fields and supply a default value.
You can using entity adapters to populate some of the values, but you must supply an Organization because there is an entity adapter that you cannot modify that verifies the organization name.

How to get warning by using the previous value of the column and new value

Hi all,
Suppose the column A has the true and when I click on button which also sets the value of the column as true I should dispaly warning that column a is already true.How can I achieve this.How to store the original value of the column and then check wirth the new value.
Thanks in advance.

You dont have to store the value anywhere
You can do this from setMethod of EOImpl.java
eg:
void setAttributeXXX(String Value)
// value contains new value
// getAttributeXXX() contains oldValue
if (value.equals(getAttributeXXX()))
// Verify value is > 0 if (value.compareTo(0) <= 0)
throw new OAAttrValException(OAException.TYP_ENTITY_OBJECT, // indicates EO source
getEntityDef().getFullName(), // entity name
getPrimaryKey(), // entity primary key
"AttributeXXX", // attribute Name
value, // bad attribute value
"AK", // nessage application short name
"FWK_TBX_T_EMP_SALARY_REQUIRED"); // message name
setAttributeInternal(AttributeXXX, value);

Show actual values before current month and forecast values after

This is a tricky one (but I guess it will be easy for you clever guys out there), so my apologies for the heading.
Thanks for reading.
I need to build a report in BEx (BW3.5) that does the following:
I will get actual values and forecast values for a year, grouped per period.
But in the report, I don't want to display the actual and forecast values of every period.
I want to display the actual values for the past, and the forecast values for the future.
So, if we are now in period 6 (which is June) all the actual values must be displayed for Jan, Feb, Apr and May.
But from June onwards to December, only the forecast must be displayed for each month.
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance, points will be assigned
Rudolph
Edit: This might help. The actual value is based on KF 0AMOUNT, where value type = 10. The forecast is based on the same KF, value type = 20, version = F2

Hi Rudolph,
No need to write any code for this one.
Have done couple of forecast reports using following logic.
Hope historical data getting from R/3 & Forecast values from APO.
these are seperate 2 keyfigures.
1.created restricted key figure (keyfigure1) for historical values & drag drop time characterstic with off set till date (means offset -6 to 0)
2.created restricted key figure (keyfigure2) for forecast values & drag drop time characterstic with off set till date (means offset +1 to +6).
create calculated keyfigure Add up above(keyfigure1+keyfigure2) two restricted keyfigure.
Thnx,
Vijay Reddy.

Show / hide field based on text in another field

Hi,
I'm trying to make one of my fields reactive to what is the text generated in another field.
At the moment I have this under calculate using custom javascript:
var Mask = this.getField("Course").value;
if(Mask == 'Swimming') this.getField("Code").display = display.visible;
else this.getField("Code").display = display.hidden;
Whereas Course is the field that is changing and Code is the one that will show/hide based on content of Course.
Any help?

Hi Everyone,
After doing trials with simple calculations it still wasn't working and so I've figured out what the problem is - the document was being exported but with the data being pre-populated from an SQL database in which during the export it all happens at once, not a chain effect so when the export happens it was filling "Code" before "Course" had any info in it...
The fix was basically having to create a different field in the SQL source itself for an independent field on the pdf form.

Using Javascript to show/unshow a field based on input in another field

I want to display/not display a field in a JSP depending on what is selected in another field.
I am using <div></div> element currently which is displayed/not displayed using a Javascript invoked by the first field.
the problem with div is that I have to put it inside a <tr><td> otherwise it doesn't work. This makes the field look aloof from the rest of the page, and is also not aligned with the other fields.
Is there anything other than <div> that can be used? or is there a way to correct the look of the field inside a div?
Thanks

You shouldn't have to put it inside a <tr><td> to get it to work. I've done what you are trying to do with <span></span> and it worked fine. I haven't tried it with a <div> but I can't image why that wouldn't work. Maybe you could post your code.

Automatically fill in field from first letter of another field

Hi,
I have a situation where i would like to fill in a field automatically, dependant on the first letter entered in another field.
Here's some examples:
1. Field one - A6805B Field two - 'UHF' (As A = UHF)
2. Field one - E1234C Feild two - 'VHF' (As E = VHF)
3. Field one - S5673D Field two - 'Error - No Frequency' (As S doesn't have an equivalent)
Can anyone help?
Cheers
Rob

Hi Rob,
You can do this by assigning the first letter to a variable and then testing that variable.
A sample is here: https://acrobat.com/#d=OoLUPLu1Qy1*8Uxz7*hG6Q
Hope that helps,
Niall

How can i make it where if data is entered into a field it is mirrored to another field within the document?

I do not want them named the same as I don't want the second one appearing until after it is entered into the first field.

Hi,
If the form fields have the same name then the data entered in one field will be auto populated in other with the same name. For example, if there is a form field named custom field 1 in one document and there is another field with the same name(custom field 1) in the other document and you upload them together into a single transaction and send the document, then the data entered in custom field 1 in one document will be auto populated in custom field 1 of other document as well. This also applies for one document only as well.
Does this help?
