Clearing Value in one Prompt based on selection in another

Hello,
I have 2 prompts in my BEx query designer for same characterstics ( one is single value, characterstic variable and another one is Hierarchy node variable ). During the query execution, If user selects a value in first prompt and goes to the other prompt and selects a value, i need to clear the selected value in the first prompt. And vice versa as well.....
Please suggest.

Jagan,
Let me explain my isue in detail...
I have created 2 variables for the same characterstics and both of them are ready for input. One variable is of characterstic type and other is Hierarchy node type.
Now, when user executes the query he sees two prompts. Lets say user selects a value for one prompt and then goes to second prompt and selects another value for the second prompt, then i need to clear the values that was selected by him for the first prompt. And vice versa....

How to restrict values in one prompt based on value from another prompt

Hi
I have a requirement as follows. I have two fields (objects)
program code
contract number
one program code can have several contract numbers.
I need to provide prompts on Program code and contract number. when user selects one program from the prompt on program code then contract field should only show contract numbers belonging the program user selected.
Please let me know how to bring this functionality in Webi report.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
if ur requirement is in query level its impossible.(i mean whn u click on programcode then u have to display in contract at query level)
if you want to display at report level then
The two objects Program and contract have a mapping then place a program object in query filter and use operator equal to and select prompt and run the query then it will ask you to select program .whn on choosing it you will get filtered contract numbers for that program in report level . There no need to use prompt for contract numbers object .
Hope this helps u
Thanks

How to populate LOV of one prompt based on other prompts w/o cascade

Hello All,
Scenario- There are three prompts in my report.
Source_Prompt1, Source_Prompt2 and Target_Prompt.
There is no direct reletion between Source_Prompt1 and Source_Prompt2.
And user wants Target_Prompt data on selection of these source_prompts.
Is there any way to populate target prompt on selection of source prompt.
Note- This can be implemented by applying cascading between all three prompts fields.
However user dosent want Cascading between source prompts.?
is there any other method except cascading prompt to populate LOV of one prompt based on selection of other prompt values?
Your insights are most welcome.
Amit

I believe the only way to populate LOVs is directly from a database. E.g.; you can not populate it "manually". In your case, you may have to create your own prompt forms and use those.

Combine 2 Column Values in One Prompt - - - - Urgent

Hi Experts,
I'm Using Obiee10g.
I have a requirement where i need to create a prompt (based on 2 column values)
Example: Name of Prompt (Search Agency) it has following values
Agency Type1
Agency Type2
Agency Subtype1
Agency Subtype2
Agency Type1, Agency Type2 are Major Types - Which comes from Column: Agency Type
Agency Subtype1, Agency Subtype2 are subtypes - Which comes from Column: Agency Subtype
I took a dummy column from subject area. Converted the Prompt to Sql Results and wrote the following condition.
Select Agency_type from Agency where Agency Type in (Agency Type1, Agency Type2)
union
Select Agency_subtype from Agency Where Agency subtype in (Agency Subtype1, Agency Subtype2)
Now, My Prompt is showing correct values.
And, My Report has following columns: Agency Id, Agency Name, Agency Type, Agency Subtype (Agency Type is prompted or Agency Subtype is prompted)
Now, My Prompt and Report not reflects properly as i need to use multi select for prompts
If, i'm using drop down and storing the values in presentation variable and saying that
Agency Type = pv1 (Presen. variable1) default a
or
Agency Subtype = pv1 (presen. variable1) default a
Then, it works.
But, I need Multi select prompt. And, i cannot use p.v for multi select.
How to acheive the above functionality.
Experts, Please guide me.....

If I'm Using And Condition it fails.
Because,
Say I have Types as - Type1, Type2
Say I have Subtypes as - Subtype1, subtype2, subtype3
Type table
Type1, subtype1
Type1, subtype2
Type2, Subtype3
Now, if select prompt1 ( Prompt1 is prompted -> Type1 is prompted) ----> My report reflects for type1
if I Select prompt2 (Prompt2 is prompted -> Subtype3 is prompted) -----> My Report reflects for subtype3
If i use here And ----> it fails ( Type = Type1 and Subtype = Subtype3)
It should be Or ----> (Type = Type1 or Subtype = Subtype3) ----> this passes only when i select both values. But, my requirement is it should pass for even one selection.
It can be done for drill down and pres. variable. But, my requ. is multiselect.

Field Populates based on Selection in Another Field

Hi everyone,
I have created a new position description template using a pdf form. In this form I have various fields. I would like to populate one field based on what I have selected in another field. For example, I have a field called competency. In this field I can select and choose a competency. If I select "Accountability" I would like the description field to say " Accepts personal responsibility for the quality and timeliness of work. Can be relied upon to achieve results with little need for supervision. " alternatively if I select "Compliance" I would like the description field to say "Complies with policies, procedures, workflows and instructions." Can anyone assist me with script or is there another way of making this happen.
Thanks in advance

I think this is what you are looking for:
Make sure that you select "Commit selected value immediately" in the options tab of the drop down menu.
//Place this script in the custom validation script of the drop down menu
//Create a text field caleld Text2
var MySelection = event.value;
switch (MySelection) {
case "Accountability":
    this.getField("Text2").value = "Accepts personal responsibility for the quality and timeliness of work. Can be relied upon to achieve results with little need for supervision. ";
break;
case "Compliance":
    this.getField("Text2").value = "Complies with policies, procedures, workflows and instructions.";
    break;
I hope this helps.

Conditional format of one cell based on contents of another cell

Preparing list of appointments for visitors with time for each. There are four possible status categories for visitors based on projected activity and whether they have shown up or not. (A Group Scheduled, A Group Showed, B Group Scheduled, B Group Showed). I've created the calendar in iCal with different calendars, then accessed that through Bento iCal Events. Bento adds the column with name of calendar from iCal. Info is now in Numbers. (iWorks 09)
It shows Title, Start Date, Location, Calendar. I'm adding more fields using Lookup in Numbers drawing on entire data base brought over from Bento. I'm trying to get what info I need, but none that I don't, so the form isn't too crowded and busy.
I would like to be able to conditionally format the Time column based on the contents of the Calendar column. If successful, the color of the Time column would tell me all I need to know about visitor status, and I could hide the Calendar column and clean up the form.
I hope I've described it adequately. Can this be done, and if so, how?
Thanks! Have a great Thanksgiving!

Does it work to format two cells based on contents of one of them?
Conditional formatting of a cell depends on the contents of that individual cell, compared with another value, so no.
But you could use a two-table approach.
In general terms, the technique is to:
• make the original table's cell fill transparent,
• Add a second table to the sheet,
• Set the second table to copy the control values into a column of cells,
• Select the cells in that column of Table 2,
• Apply conditional formatting rules for each possible control value (see below)
• Set the text opacity for these cells to 0 (full transparency),
• Click on Table 2 in the sidebar, then use (shift and) the arrow keys to slide Table 2 behind Table 1 to align the highlighted cells with the cells to appear highlighted in Table 1.
• Set the colour of the cell borders on table 2 to none.
Using the information you gave regarding the calendar column, you'll need four rules for conditional formatting of this column. All are of the same format:
Text contains: A Group Scheduled
With the text changed to match each possible entry.
Regards,
Barry
BTW: by changing the width of the formatted column on table 2, you can appear to highlight as many columns as you wish on Table 1.

Changing Date in one cell based on text in another cell

Is there a formula to change the date in a cell in one column to the date in another column on the same row based on the text in a third cell on the same row? For example, I want the date in G3 to change to the date in J3 when the text in H3 says Completed.

Hi,
My understanding is that if the value of H3 is "Completed", the G3 is changed the value of J3, is it correct? If yes, we can use If formula (=IF(H2="completed",J2)), please see the image below:
If no, please share us a sample, we'd like to re-try it.

Assigning a Numeric Value in a Cell Based on Text in Another Cell

In advance, thanks for your assistance. I'm trying, in vain, to assign a numeric value in a cell based on text (from a dropdown menu) in another cell. For example, in cell A5 I have a dropdown list that includes the options "blue", "red", "white", and "gold." I want cell C15 to be 2 if A5="blue"; I want C15 to be 0 if A5="red"; I want C15 to be 2 if A5="white"; and, I want C15 to be 1 if A5="gold."

Tippet,
This is a job for LOOKUP.
The expression for the Result cell is: =LOOKUP(A2, Lookup :: A1:A4, Lookup :: B1:B4)
The aux. table contains the matches that you assign for the colors.

Populate a dropdown based on selected in another dropdown in a seperate table

Good Day All;
This may sound like a simple question to most, but… It has had me frustrated trying to figure out.
I am trying to populate a dropdown based on what is selected in another dropdown.
Let me explain what I have done so far.
LifeCycle Designer 8.05.2
When I had both dropdowns in the same table, I did not have a problem. The code I used is
Table name is “Table1”
if(directorate.rawValue == "1")
division.clearItems();
division.addItem("select")
I was asked to move things around and now “division” is located in “Table2”
I know I need to reference “Table1” but I am running into a Syntax error. I have tried the following code;
if(Table1 Row1 directorate.rawValue == "1")
division.clearItems();
division.addItem("Faire un choix")
if(Table1.Row1.directorate.rawValue == "1")
division.clearItems();
division.addItem("Faire un choix")
Any help would be appreciated
Chomp

You're missing a semicolon at the end of the addItem line, and on the second code sample you've got no periods in the SOM reference (Table1 Row1 directorate).
The easiest way to get the path to another field is to ctrl-click on the field while you are in the script editor.

Insert values to one table based on a value inserted into another table

Hi,
I've got a form based off a report which creates a new project. I've added an additional process to this form to insert four new values into another table as soon as the new project is created and the PK for that project is generated. This was working last week (of course!) and now seems to not work at all. It's complaining that the PK I was getting from my first insert was null. Here is one the the statements in my process I'm trying to run:
insert into week_group values(week_group_seq.nextval, (SELECT trunc(NEXT_DAY(SYSDATE, 'FRIDAY')) FROM dual), 0, '', :P45_PROJECT_SEQ, sysdate, :APP_USER);
The complaint I get that it's getting null where :P45_PROJECT_SEQ should be.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Jon

Hi Andy,
Thanks for the tip. Those two values didn't match and I updated them so they do and I'm still getting a "cannot insert NULL..." error.
When I turn on debug I see that I'm getting the PK and I see the value. Here's my debug output:
0.24: ...Process "Get PK": PLSQL (AFTER_SUBMIT) declare function get_pk return varchar2 is begin for c1 in (select PROJECT_SEQ.nextval next_val from dual) loop return c1.next_val; end loop; end; begin :P45_PROJECT_SEQ := get_pk; end;
0.25: ...Session State: Saved Item "P45_PROJECT_SEQ" New Value="252"
0.25: ...Process "Process Row of PROJECT": DML_PROCESS_ROW (AFTER_SUBMIT) #OWNER#:PROJECT:P45_PROJECT_SEQ:PROJECT_SEQ|IUD
0.26: ...Session State: Save "P45_PROJECT_SEQ" - saving same value: "252"
0.26: ...Process "reset page": CLEAR_CACHE_FOR_PAGES (AFTER_SUBMIT) 45

0.28: Encountered unhandled exception in process type PLSQL
0.28: Show ERROR page...
0.28: Performing rollback...
I notice that when it runs my process "Add Week Groups" it's not displaying all of the SQL. But the SQL is fine, it's right here:
insert into week_group values(week_group_seq.nextval, (SELECT trunc(NEXT_DAY(SYSDATE, 'FRIDAY')) FROM dual), 0, '', :P45_PROJECT_SEQ, sysdate, :APP_USER);
Hmmm....what about the "reset page" action in the last of the 0.26 lines?
Thanks,

Passing value from one prompt to another in different section

Scenario:
I have three columns to be used for this particular case
Month (eg 2011 Jan)
Month No (eg 201101)
Previous year Month (eg 201001)
Now i am using "Month" as a prompt in all my reports.
But i am fetching the report for a period of 1 year.
Which means if i choose 2011 Aug then i should get the report for the period 2011 Aug to 2010 Aug.
I am using intermediate report for this.
Where i calculate from the original column and fetch the report using "filter based on other reports"
But now i want to do it using prompts only.
I want to compare whether it will make the report faster or not.
The concept is i use "Month"(M) as prompt in all reports.
But i want to keep "Month No"(MN) and "Previous year Month"(PYM) as prompts too.
then trigger the value selection of combo1(MN and PYM prompts) with selection of M prompt.
There should be no go buttons for the combo1 prompt.
And the combo1 should be hidden so that user is able to see only "M" prompt.
Please give your opinion for this scenario

ok, i resolved this issue by passing URL parameters from my calling application to the called application..
the code I used looks as follows:
*---- Pass parameters through lt_parms table to URL
ls_parms-name = 'OPERATION'.
ls_parms-value = 'M'.
APPEND ls_parms to lt_parms.
ls_parms-name = 'PROJECT_ID'.
ls_parms-value = lv_ext_id.
APPEND ls_parms to lt_parms.
CALL METHOD cl_wd_utilities=>construct_wd_url
    EXPORTING
      application_name = 'zps_ppm_idea_sheet'
      in_parameters = lt_parms
    IMPORTING
      out_absolute_url     = str.
l_cmp_api = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
l_window1 = l_cmp_api->get_window_manager( ).
result = l_window1->create_external_window(
    URL = STR ).
result->open( ) .
I basically transformed my component controller context attributes to URL parameters, called the app in a new browser passing those parameters.
Then, converted those URL parameters back to component controller context atributes for use on the other side.

Passing DB values to the textbox based on Select Value item

Hi,
I am very much new to the Oracle APEX. In my project, I have a requirement wherein I have to pass the different values to the corresponding textboxes on a different page based on the value I select from the "Select Value" item.
I have tried using calling On-Demand Processes, but couldn't get the desired result.
Please suggest!

Hi 796444 ,
Welcome to the forum. It will be good if you familiarize yourself with the forum ettiquittes. Also, when posting always state the following:
a. Apex version
b. DB version
c. Web server ; EPG, apexlistener, etc
d. Provide adequate details for others to understand your problem / what you are trying to achieve.
e. Any code snippets you post should be enclosed in a pair of tags
If your current problem is that the you are *calling* Page 2 from Page 1, and while doing so you want the value of P1_ITEM1 to be passed and set in p2_ITEM1 then
a. Edit the branch
b. In Action in Set these items write P2_ITEM1
c. In With these values write &P1_ITEM1. (do not miss the dot at the end)
It looks good if you use a better handle than 796444 :-)
