Conditional formating in a pivot table field based on another field

Hello All,
I have a pivot table with fields like Division, Day, Current DayTotal, Previous DayTotal. I have to set the background color of CurrentDayTotal field based on PreviousDayTotal. I searched all the blogs and they say Crossconditional Formatting is not possible in 10.1.3.4 pivot table.
Conditional formatting works fine with the same field but not with a calculated field. I have tried these two options (Java Script and setting XML in Advanced tab) on a similar solution based on Grand Total.
Conditional formtting in Grand total
But not able to make it work for my current situation. Can you help.
Regards,

Hi,
I've read all the tips that are offered in this forum. I tried all the solutions provided here, but I can not get the grand total formatted conditionally, what I get is the following error nell'answer:
DXE compiler error. No table 'GTGT' found in DXE. Source name: DxeAPI. XML: None
Error details
Codici di errore: YV3KVTDM
Location: saw.hypercube.dxeApi, saw.httpserver.processrequest, saw.rpc.server.responder, saw.rpc.server, saw.rpc.server.handleConnection, saw.rpc.server.dispatch, saw.threadpool.socketrpcserver, saw.threads
I'm use the version: OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2
Anyone have any ideas for me?!

Changing a field based on another field

hi one and all
i am looking for a way to change a field based on another field. if i have item 2 and item 8 on the page and item 8 needs to be required based on item 2 based on a requirement, how would this be done.
ex if item 2 has a PO inputed, when it is moved off the field, item 8 should be changed from required false to required true. i have tried in both the process request and process form request with no luck
any suggestions.
thanks

hello again
after your input and after reviewing the tutorial ( which i accomplished based on data from a table but not a field ) , i did the following and have been fighting it for a day. am i doing this correctly
on the itemid OrgRptCode1 i changed the action type to firePartialAction and the event is name o1
then i added this code to see if the action would fire
if (pageContext.getParameter("OrgRptCode1") !=null) // either line will be commented out
if (pageContext.getParameter("o1") !=null) // either line will be commented out
System.out.println("Field is not empty");
else
System.out.println("Field is empty");
am i missing a step . also
when i enter the page i get Field is empty. when i enter the field and tab off i get the error page w/ this msg

Populate a table field based on another field in the same table

Hi,
I have a table with fields collection profile and collection prfile text. When maintaining this table, the collection profile name should appear automatically ( from table UDM_COLL_GRPT) based on the collection profile entered.. In UDM_COLL_GRPT, collection profilr name is not a primary key. Please let me know how to do this.
Thanks in advance,
Jissa

Guess you could make use of the event 05 from the TMG events to make the appropriate selections and populate the field.

Auto-populating fields based on another field (must access dif record type)

This is a long one. I basically want to know if it's possible to have several fields auto-populated based on the data in another. It gets a little tricky here, because the information I want to auto-populate will have to be searched for in another record type. An example will hopefully make my request clear:
I have 10's of thousands of records of the "Product" record type that each have a product number. Well, let's say I have several fields to enter into an "Opportunity" record type, based on the information for this product number in the "Products" record type. I want to know if I can enter the product number on the "Opportunity" record, and have OnDemand go look up this product number in the "Product" record type, pull information from that record, and auto-populate that additional information in certain fields back on the "Opportunity" record that I am entering information for.
I know a workflow can do this on simple things where you have a few different part numbers and can create a workflow for each, but I literally have 40k part numbers, and I can't very well create that many workflows. If there was a way to dynamically script the workflow to use the part number in the field on the "Opportunity" record and go fetch the data to auto-populate, that would be nice.
I also can't use a cascading picklist because, again, there are around 40k products records and picklists have a limit to how many choices you can have.
My think tank has run empty, and I am out of ideas. I was wondering if there is any other way to get this done, or if it's even possible?
Thanks,
B
Edited by: user10885599 on Feb 5, 2009 11:54 AM

As I read this, I am wondering if you would be able to use the new JoinFieldValue() function to update the fields. The problem is that the Opportunity record does not have a direct link to products. The Revenue table does however, so you should be able to do this from Revenue, if that is how you are using the application.
The process would be to create a workflow that watches for new Revenue records, and updates the new fields in the Revenue object using the JoinFieldValue function to pull the data.

Acrobat XI - Populating value of a field based on another field

pdf built in Acrobat XI
New to this and I have tried every possible combination I can think of! For simplicty purposes, I have two text fields, Text1 and Text2. I want Text2 to populate based on the value entered into Text1. Have an Action event (Mouse Up) on Text1 as follows:
var OneT = this.getField("Text1");
var TwoT = this.getField("Text2");
TwoT.value=OneT.value;

[Moved to Acrobat JavaScript forum]
If you name each field the same, the values will automatically be the same. But if you want to be able to change the value of Text2 after it is autopopulated, you should use a different script and a different event. The following custom Validate script for Text1 will set the value of Text2 when the value of Text1 changes:
//Custom Validate script for Text1
getField("Text2").value = event.value;
If you only want to set the value of Text2 when it is blank, the code could be:
// Custom Validate script for Text1
// Get a reference to Text2
var f = getField("Text2");
// Only set it value if it is currently blank
if (!f.valueAsString) {
f.value = event.value;
This allows the user to change the value of Text2 without it getting reset when Text1 is changed.

Auto Populate one Field Based on Another Field

I am trying to populate the description field after the user has entered a value in the item number field and then tabs or otherwise exits the item number field. I'm sure this is in the documentation somewhere, but I'm in a big hurry.
By the way, this is only the second time I've looked at HTML-DB, so details would be appreciated.
Thanks a bunch!

Well, I've been all over all kinds of documentation, but the pieces are not coming together.
I have onchange="doSubmit('GETDESC');" in the HTML Form Element Attributes.
I have a couple of processes which fire, or don't, depending on the condition of Request (Request = Expression 1 vs. Request != Expression 1).
I know when a process fires because of messages I put in the Process Success Message.
My source is:
SELECT ITEM_DESCRIPTION INTO :P1_ITEM_DESCRIPTION
FROM PRT_HEADER
WHERE ITEM_NBR = :P1_ITEM_NBR;
When I change the value in P1_ITEM_NBR and tab out, the form comes back blank.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Gregory

Values in one field based on another field in the paper parameter form.....

Hi All,
I have two fields in the parameter form. One named 'employee number' and the other named 'document number'. Now, there are multiple document numbers for every employee. I'd like the document numbers to be displayed automatically as an LOV or would like to give the user some help when the employee number is entered manually. Please let me know if this is possible in Oracle reports. I read somewhere that I'll have to call the values from the form. if that is the case. then please let me know how to go about it....

Hi Hari,
Considering both Market Segment and Application fields are dropdown,
1) define an event for the first dropdown in the get_p method ie., Market Segment field
2) In the get_v method of the second dropdown get the value of hte 1st dropdown and filter your field accordingly
Note: The reason for defining an event in (1) is just to do a server submit.. its actually act as a dummy event if you dont want to handle your logic here
Hope this was helpful.

Selection screen validation - one field based on another field

Hi all,
i'm getting Month in Select option and Year in Parameter.
When i execute the report, it should check whether one is entered without the other one. If so, it should throw error message.
How to do this in selection screen ?
this is what the coding should be...
if s_month[] is not initial and p_year is initial.
Message 'Enter Payroll Year' type 'E'.
endif.
if s_month[] is initial and p_year is not initial.
Message 'Enter Payroll month' type 'E'.
endif.
But under which event i should write this..
can anyone pls help me..
Regards,
Shanthi

Hi Shanti,
Define your selection-screen elements between
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK <block name>
Select-options....
Parameters:
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK <block name>
You specify ur code in AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON BLOCK <b1>.
This would help you if either one of the entry is missing...
And even you can mention in AT SELECTION-SCREEN event...
But if you have any other parameters there its not necessary for the user to specify if he had entered...
As month and year are interrelated for your program its better you go for the first procedure ie in BLOCK event.
Hope this would help you,
Regards

Choose field from joined table based on another field?

Good morning!
Is it possible to select a field from a joined table row based on another field? Consider the following data in the CVALUES table:
ID C1   C2    C3    C4    C5    C6
T1 9.6 10.3 12.4 19.6 19.6    0
T7 9.6 10.4     0     0     0    0
T3 8.2   9.9 11.4 19.6 19.6    0
T8 8.3 10.7 13.5 20.7     0    0
T5 9.4 10.3 12.7 22.9 19.6    0
...And the following data in the MDETAIL table:
ID           MDATE        CNUM     ...
T1 03/28/2012 18:00:00    4
T1 03/28/2012 18:00:00    1
T8 03/29/2012 06:00:00    6
T8 03/29/2012 06:00:00    5
...I want to get the column from CVALUES corresponding to the CNUM field in the MDETAIL table. I'm currently doing this:
SELECT m.t1, m.mdate,
       CASE WHEN m.cnum = 1 THEN c.c1
            WHEN m.cnum = 2 THEN c.c2
            WHEN m.cnum = 3 THEN c.c3
            WHEN m.cnum = 4 THEN c.c4
            WHEN m.cnum = 5 THEN c.c5
            WHEN m.cnum = 6 THEN c.c6 END AS cvalue
FROM mdetail m
JOIN cvalues c ON m.id = c.idThe records in the CVALUES table are unique; only one row per ID.
This method works, and it's fast but it's messy code and I think there has to be a better way to do it. I use the cvalue value in several calculations so every calculation I use it in has this giant glob of CASE in it!

Since you're comparing the same column against scalar values, the CASE statement could be simplified in a similar way :
CASE m.cnum
WHEN 1 THEN c.c1
WHEN 2 THEN c.c2
WHEN 3 THEN c.c3
WHEN 4 THEN c.c4
WHEN 5 THEN c.c5
WHEN 6 THEN c.c6
END AS cvalueSince performance is not the issue here, now it depends on what you consider "more readable".
Using a one-liner piece of code certainly makes the query looks less bulky, but I won't be so sure about readability and immediate understanding.

Table Control: make a field editable or not based on another field value

HI All,
How to make a column field input enabled or disabled based on another field value in a Table Control.
Here's the scenario:
I have a table control with two columns, KTOKK and LIFNR. Now for certain KTOKK, the LIFNR field should be editable and for certain KTOKK it should not be editable.
Eg., KTOKK = 0001 => LIFNR field is not editable.
KTOKK = ZKTO => LIFNR field is editable.
But these fields are in a table control.
Please advice.
Thanks in advance,
RK.

Is it possible to apply conditional formatting to a cell (or range) based upon a LOOKUP query to cell values in another sheet.? I want to alter the formatting (i.e., text and/or cell background color), but not cell content.

Is it possible to apply conditional formatting to a cell (or range) based upon a LOOKUP query to cell values in another sheet.?
I want to alter the formatting (i.e., text and/or cell background color), but not the content, of the target cell(s).

Hi Tom,
Your LOOKUP formula will return a value that it finds in the "other" table. That value can be used in conditional highlighting rules. (Numbers 3 calls it conditional highlighting, not conditional formatting. Just to keep us awake, I guess, but it works the same).
Please explain what you are trying to do.
Regards,
Ian.

Hi,
Let me make sure u r working with table control.
First u have to create a event(VALIDATE) to do the validation.
Inside the event,
1. First get the current index where user has pointed the curson
2. Once u get the index read the internal table with index value.
3. Now u can compare the col1 and col2 values and populate the error message.
1. DATA : lo_elt TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element,
l_index type i.
lo_elt = wdevent->get_context_element( name = 'CONTEXT_ELEMENT' ).
CALL METHOD LO_ELT->GET_INDEX( RECEIVING MY_INDEX = l_index.
above code should be written inside the event.
Thanks,

Making a DFF field mandatory based on another field

Hello All,
We have a requirement where in we need to make a DFF field mandatory based on another field.
example:
DFF has two fields :
Filed1 : values 'Email', 'Fax'
Filed2
If 'Email' is selected in 'Field1' then Field2 should become mandatory.
Any inputs on this will be really helpful.
Thanks & Regards,
Satya.

hi kumar3a,
recently, i spent considerable amount of time wracking my brain on a similar problem. the nearest i came to a solution was when i used a forms personalisation. mind you, forms personalisation will not work directly on the DFF window, so it has to be approached in a roundabout sort of way.
i got this information from an Oracle Support personnel - MOS Note 1078348.1.
i would start with the flexfield segment as "not required", and then using Forms Personalization, i would make it "required". i would try to figure out how to establish a condition where the previous 'required' flexfield segment's value is checked to see if this 'not required' segment needs to be made 'required'. in theory, this should solve the issue. i gave up on it because the forms personalisation would need to cover WHEN-VALIDATE trigger event, and we had close to 100 validations going on through other preexisting forms personalisations, which rendered it near impossible to employ this method.
best regards.
