Changing value of select list to match report field

I have an Apex page that has a report region and a form region.
The report region returns a single row of data from a SQL select. One of the fields returned is a user id (which I translate into a user name using a LOV).
In the form region, I have a select list containing users (based on the same LOV as above). The form is used to add a new record to a table. I want the select list in the form region to display the same user as displayed in the reports region. I'm adding in the form is based on the user id in the report region.
How do I do this? Because the form region is adding a new record, and uses the Database field as Source, it always displays the first item in the LOV.
I tried using computations to override what's in the select list in the form region (by doing a SQL select and getting the same row of data as in the reports region) but this doesn't seem to work. The select list just always defaults to the first user.
Is there a trick for making one select list match another?

Cheers - think you're right, using the default will do it. Having a bit of trouble with my SQL select now though...
This is the SQL I'm was using
SELECT ASSIGNED_USER_ID FROM REQUEST WHERE REQUEST_ID = 1;
How do I rewrite this as a PL/SQL function or expression to return the ASSIGNED_USER_ID field as my default (I'm still learning the basics of PL/SQL)?

Is it possible to change values in pagination select list for a report?

The values showing up in my pagination select list for a report are 10,15,20,30,50,100,200,500,1000,5000.
Is it possible to not have this list show the 1000 and 5000 values? I've tried setting various row values in the layout and pagination section of the report, but nothing changes in the select list. Is there a way to change this, or is it set up in a template somewhere that I can change?
APEX version 3.0
Thanks

Figured this one out. Using the P1_ROWS item, added a static LOV with the correct values to override the one APEX was providing. The P1_ROWS item goes in the Number of Rows (Item) field in the layout and pagination section of the report.

Possible bug ? - Default value for select list

4.2.1
Hi, I have one page with a couple of reports. I have a time period filter on top. Its a select list with values 7 days, 3 months and 12 months. Default value is set to 3 (where return values of select list is 1,2,3 resp).
Now in page 1 which has this select list, :P1_SELECT it has a report which shows counts of number of items purchased. When the user clicks on the count(hyperlinked column), it takes the user to another page which runs the details of the items and also uses the Page 1 select. It works fine when I change the time period. However, if I dont change the time period in the select list when I first login, althought I have set the default value to 3, the interactive report on page shows no data found, because the select list default value I guess it does not recognize.
Is this a bug?
Thanks,
Sunil

Default values is only populated on the clien side and NOT in the session.

Select list within interactive report.

Hello y'all,
I have a need to develop an interactive report and am lost in how to proceed. I am asking for your help. The report requirements are as such:
- There are 3 types of records that will be in the report
- The is a checkbox to associate the records to a particular event.
- If the record is of a certain value, 3 of the columns in that record have to show as select lists.
- The records with the other 2 values should not have the select lists, just show a null in those columns.
- The checkbox must be checked for the select lists to appear.
- The select lists are based on a list of values. The values are populated with an existing common function used in many of the application pages.
I am having no success in trying to get the select lists in the report. Has anyone developed an interactive report that uses select lists within the report? Is this even possible?
I am using application Express 3.2.0.00.27. Any help that you can give is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!
*** Got it. It has to be a tabular report with updateable columns. ***

Hi,
I am not sure if the "equal to" condition applies to a DOM object... after all, a DOM object can be anything (any HTML element) not only a field.
Try using a javascript expression instead, like this:
$v('P6_IR_SELECT_LIST')=='Delete'UPDATE: Sorry, I just tested and "equal to" condition works for DOM objects... should have tested before posting!

Display and return value in select list.

hi,
i want to display the value in select list coming from this quary .
select student_id from class_record where class_id =:p1_class_id and SECTION =:p1_section
minus
select student_id from STUDENT_TYPE_DETAILS where class_id =:p1_class_id and SECTION =:p1_section;

how can i define display value and return value in this quary using 3rd table s_per_det.
How can i do this.
Thanks
manoj

Ooh, MINUS.... Can you not use a NOT EXISTS in this case, could have a big effect on the execution plan?
Something like this perhaps?
SELECT f_name||' '||l_name,
       stundent_id
FROM class_record a,
     s_per_det b
WHERE a.student_id = b.student_id
AND   a.class_id   = :P1_CLASS_ID
AND   a.section    = :P1_SECTION
AND   NOT EXISTS(SELECT 'X'
                 FROM student_type_details c
                 WHERE a.student_id = c.student_id
                 AND   c.class_id = :P1_CLASS_ID
                 AND   c.section = :P1_SECTION)Cheers

How to get the value from select list to text box

Hi,
I have a select list i want to retrieve the value from select list to text box.
How can i do that???
Regards,
Sakthi.

Hi Sakthi,
Yo can use the Java script for that..
Dynamically the value will come into text box.
Use the below script.
<script type="text/javascript">
function disFormItems()
var lReturn = $v(here your select list name)
alert(lReturn);
document.getElementById(here your text box name).value =lReturn; }
</script>Cheers,

Change display value of "select list"

Hi!
I have a problem with a select list, I want to change the display value through an own pop up (page 5 of apex application) after I submit in it.
The select list is based on a sql query:
select A_NAME display_value, A_ID return_value
from APPLICATIONS
where a_application_type='GROUP'
order by 1
beside I have an link to open a pop up window:
... onClick="window.open ('f?p=&APP_ID.:5:&SESSION.::::', 'newWin',
'scrollbars=no,status=no,width=500,height=270' ...
On the pop up site there is a tree and a submit button which close the window and renew the original page:
javascript:window.opener.location.reload();window.close();
Through the tree I get the value (Group-ID) which I need.
When I'm back on page 4 a "before header" renew page process links again on the side 4 and change the value of my select list. Afterwards the values have changed correctly but the display value is still the old one. It only change when i go on an other page of the apex application and come back.
I don't know why it doesn't change immediately!?
Thanks ahead

I have done with a solution just in a nutshell of what u r looking for:
1.create HTML region.
Add two items : Select list with redirect(P6_X) and text field(P7_X)
2. Select list is based on LOV query as :
select empno d,empno r from emp ;
Source value is Empno Type:DBcolumn.
3.The text field Source type : SQL Query .
Query : select ename from emp where empno = :P6_X
Now select from the dropdown empno and it will populate the Ename value accordingly based on the query .
U can have more than one text fields and populate those in the same way.....
Cheers,

Help with Select Lists in Classic Report

Hello,
I working with APEX 4.1. Oracle 11.
I have a simple classic report with 4 columns (Username, Role, Read, Update). The Read and Update columns are Select Lists with values of "Yes", "No".
Report looks like this:
Username Role Read Update
JSmith Admin Yes Yes
LJones Dev Yes No
My requirement, is that when a user selects Yes from the Update select list, the value of the associated Read column needs to change to Yes as well for that particular Username. The change has to occur upon selection of Yes from the Update select list.
Im not very strong with javascript, but for testing purposes I applied: onchange="alert('hi');" on the Update column. When I make a change to the Update select list, the alert does pop up.
Can anyone suggest how I can implement the change to the associated Read value of Yes if the Update value chosen is Yes, for that particular row.
Thank you,
Laura

The complexity in this case is that you're using items in a report rather than standard page items.

Conditional Select List in a Report maintained using a Multi Row Update

I have a SQL Report that is maintained with a "Multi Row Update" process. One of the columns needs to be ether a "Select List" based on a named LOV or just "Text" (Read Only) based on the value in the column. I have the UI working using a case statement and apex_items in me SQL but the Report Column is not marked "Edit" and the "Multi Row Update" process just ignores changes.
Any help would be great!

Just curious, why is the first parameter to in third TEXT_FROM_ITEM invocation NULL instead of 20? Also check your first parameter in your ELSE. Shouldn't it be a global number as well?
Did you try adding a hidden item to your SELECT statement? Something like:
(case
when CSSN.KTTR_BILL_STAT_UID = KT_UTIL_PKG.get_kttr_uid_from_ref_val('SESSION_BILL_STAT','SESSION_BILL_STAT_1') then
apex_item.select_list_from_lov(20,CSSN.KTTR_BILL_STAT_UID,'KTTR_SESSION_BILL_STAT_PRPR','','NO')
when CSSN.KTTR_BILL_STAT_UID = KT_UTIL_PKG.get_kttr_uid_from_ref_val('SESSION_BILL_STAT','SESSION_BILL_STAT_2') then
apex_item.select_list_from_lov(20,CSSN.KTTR_BILL_STAT_UID,'KTTR_SESSION_BILL_STAT_PRPR','','NO')
when CSSN.KTTR_BILL_STAT_UID is null then
apex_item.text_from_lov(20,'KTTR_SESSION_BILL_STAT')
else
apex_item.text_from_lov(20,CSSN.KTTR_BILL_STAT_UID,'KTTR_SESSION_BILL_STAT')
end) as KTTR_BILL_STAT_DISP,
apex_item.hidden(30,CSSN.KTTR_BILL_STAT_UID) MIRRORThen in either an Javascript onBlur event on KTTR_BILL_STAT_DISP or in a Page Process assign the value of KTTR_BILL_STAT_DISP to MIRROR.

Select list within a report

Hi All
I need help creating a report with the first column as a select list and the other columns (4 of them) will auto populate based on the selected item. This is a report region on form that will update a table when submitted.
My Table: Cost Center
Cost Center Id - PK
Cost Center
Variable
Object Code
Department Accumaltor
Year
The user would select a cost center from a dropdown within the report and the other values would be filled in.
So far I have created the select list and created a tabular form.
I'm sure if I need to even use this type of report because the user will be able to add a new record if necessary.
I think I need a process to retrieve the rest of the info from the table once the user made a selection. But where would I put that?
I've read many posts that are similiar but I need some guidance.
Thank You
Moe

Add a Select List to a Report, for Updating a table.

I am working on Apex 3.0. I had to allow the Report could update a table. I added two checkbox to the report, and now I should add a Select List. I've tried a lot of ways but I don't know how can I pass the value selected, related to the ID of the row. I've tried with a JavaScript but I couldn't. A process should update the row on the DB when the user change the value on the select list. There is a save button that perform the process. How I could pass the ID of the row and the value to a PL/SQL process?
Many Thanks for your suggestions.

Default value dynamic select list

Hi everybody,
I have a question concerning dynamic select lists.
I have a report of a table that shows some records. Each record has different versions of data. So when you click on a record you get to another page where you get some information about this record and where you can select the version of this information (with the help of a select list).
The select list works fine and is defined dynamically as follows:
select distinct a.name display_value,
a.version_id return_value
from cn_pl_version a,
cn_pl_std_peplanung b
WHERE a.version_ID = b.version_id AND
b.pe_id = '&P6_HELP_PRODET.'
order by a.version_id desc
My problem is that when I click on a record I always get the report filled with the oldest version of the current record, so I always have to choose the newest version in the select list manually. I would prefer always to have the newest version in the report.
The query for the report is as follows:
select
(select sum(stunden) from cn_pl_std_peplanung t02
where abt_id = '10'
and t02.pe_id = t1.pe_id
and t02.version_id = t1.version_id
and t02.idee_id = t1.idee_id) stunden_ir,
(select name from cn_pl_version u01
where u01.version_id = t1.version_id) Version
from cn_pl_std_peplanung t1, cn_pl_projektelemente z1, cn_pl_version u1, cn_pl_projektidee s1
where t1.version_id = '&P6_VERSION_WAHL.'
and t1.pe_id = z1.pe_id
and z1.pe_id='&P6_HELP_PRODET.'
group by t1.pe_id, t1.version_id, t1.idee_id
'&P6_VERSION_WAHL.' is the item of the select list
'&P6_HELP_PRODET.' is the ID of the current record
I'm not sure if you understood my problem, my english isn't the best...
Thanks for any kind of help!!
Patrick

Hi Patrick,
what value does you select list show, when you branch to the page? Is it the correct one?
If not you should change your select list, that the correct version is selected as default. You can define a "default value" when you set the source of the element.
Otherwise you can maybe set up an example application at http://apex.oracle.com.

Smartview 11.1.2.5- Cannot change value in Text-List Dropdowns- Excel Crashes

Using latest/greatest Smartview with 64-bit Office and Windows 7. I have a native essbase app utilizing text-lists. I am trying to update text-value through smartview. Smartview automatically produces a drop down to select a value from the linked text-list. However- as soon as a different value is entered or selcted in this cell with the drop-down list- Excel crashs. I have reproduced this consistently everytime. I have no way to change values for text-measure accounts linked to text-lists. I feel this is and incompatabiliyt issue with office 64-bit.

SmartView using the forms. It appears this issue has been logged as issue number 6566082 as seen here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/readme/sv_1112200_readme.html
But I can't seem to find out where I can get information on the status of this issue and whether it's been patched in future versions.

Resolved: Use value from select list in pl/sql block

Hello,
I have a form with a select list: P18_BONUSTYPE, the values of which come from a LOV.
When the user clicks a button, a page process is used to insert a row into a table.
When I use the :P18_BONUSTYPE bind variable in my insert statement I get an error "Invalid number" I get an "Invalid number" error. I assume that APEX is using the displayed text in that bind variable, not its actual (html option) value.
I checked the HTML of the page, and the correct values are in the select list.
Can someone tell me how to get the value into a bind variable that can be used in a pl/sql block for a page process?
Thanks

Issue was a value in another item.

Did you tried changing the value using "to_number"? (i.e. to_number(:P18_BONUSTYPE)).

Increase value of Select List Item with a Button

Hi all,
I've got an apex appli which is working well.
In one report page I use a select list with a LOV, but I want to "enhance" this functionality:
I need a kind of button which increments the item-value of the select list by 1,
so that the user can easily skip to the next value of the LOV without scrolling thru the select list.
Unfortunately I dont't get it working. Has anyone an idea how to realize that?
thanks in advance
Frank

Hello Frank,
Assuming your select list item is called P1_SELECT, you can define an HTML button, next to the item, that will do the trick.
In the Post Element Text field of P1_SELECT, you can have similar code to the following:
<input type="button" value="Next Value" onclick="$x('P1_SELECT').selectedIndex+=1;" />Hope this helps,
Arie.
