Create Favourate for table content

Question

Hi,
Jdev 11.1.1.5.0
I've created a tree structure from a single DB table using self-reference. I can select the required nodes from this tree and clcik on command button, then will display a table with the selected nodes information. Till this part, i've achieved.
Now the tricky thing is, I want to save this table as a favourate with a name (Ex: German-Business Management) in a dropdown.Another user can save his/her favourate with another name(Indian-Business Management).
Tomorrow, If i click on any favourate, the corresponding results should be displayed in table format.
Could you please suggest some pointers or suggestion on my usecase?
Thanks,
Samba.

Thanks John.
Sure...I tried to provide more details as per your suggestion. Please let me know, if still need more information.
As I need to create table & calculation part in two regions at a time from the tree. I've used programatic Contextual Events concept to create table. Till this, It's working as per expectation. Iam creating the create from ArrayList which is prepopulated beans.
If user clicks on 'Save' command button, system need to ask for the name to save content of selected nodes as a favourate in a dropdown. Here Iam looking for suggestion on best option to save the selected nodes information.
Following is the code for Contextual Event controller
=======================================================
public void handleEvent(Object payload){
ActionEvent actionEvent = (ActionEvent)payload;
UIComponent component = (UIComponent)actionEvent.getSource();
List rows = (ArrayList)component.getAttributes().get("selectedRows");
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ELContext elContext = context.getELContext();
Application app = context.getApplication();
ExpressionFactory expFactory = app.getExpressionFactory();
handleSelectedDocsRegion(elContext,expFactory,rows);
handleEstimationRegion(elContext,expFactory,rows);
public void handleSelectedDocsRegion(ELContext elContext,ExpressionFactory expFactory, List rows){
List selectedRows = new ArrayList();
ValueExpression valueExp = expFactory.createValueExpression(elContext, "#{pageFlowScope.SelectedDocsBean}", Object.class);
SelectedDocsBean bean = (SelectedDocsBean)valueExp.getValue(elContext) ;
if(bean == null){
return;
Iterator iterator = rows.iterator();
while( iterator.hasNext() ){
Row row = (Row)iterator.next();
String childItemId = (String)row.getAttribute("ChildItemId");
SelectedRow sRow = new SelectedRow(childItemId,"YYYY");
selectedRows.add(sRow);
bean.setSelectedList(selectedRows);
AdfFacesContext adfContext = AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
adfContext.addPartialTarget(bean.getSelectedTable());
public void handleEstimationRegion(ELContext elContext,ExpressionFactory expFactory, List rows){
ValueExpression valueExp = expFactory.createValueExpression(elContext, "#{pageFlowScope.EstimationCostBean}", Object.class);
EstimationCostBean bean = (EstimationCostBean)valueExp.getValue(elContext) ;
if(bean == null){
return;
Iterator iterator = rows.iterator();
System.out.println("ROWS SIZE"+rows.size());
while( iterator.hasNext() ){
Row row = (Row)iterator.next();
bean.setFiles(rows.size());
AdfFacesContext adfContext = AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
adfContext.addPartialTarget(bean.getNumberOfFiles());
Following is the code for Event publisher
===========================================
DCIteratorBinding iterBind= (DCIteratorBinding)bContainer.get("HierLinks1Iterator");
String ChildItemId = (String)iterBind.getCurrentRow().getAttribute("ChildItemId");
String checkboxConfirmedStatus = (String)iterBind.getCurrentRow().getAttribute("checkboxConfirmedStatus");
Boolean checkboxConfirmed = (Boolean)iterBind.getCurrentRow().getAttribute("checkboxConfirmed");
Row[] outerRows = iterBind.getAllRowsInRange();
for (Row row : outerRows) {
Boolean checkboxConfirmed = (Boolean)row.getAttribute("checkboxConfirmed");
if(checkboxConfirmed == true){
selectedRows.add(row);
traverseTree(row,selectedRows);
public void traverseTree(Row node,List selectedRows){
//List selectedRows = new ArrayList();
ViewRowSetImpl viewRowImpl = (ViewRowSetImpl)node.getAttribute("LeafHierLinks");
if(viewRowImpl != null){
Row[] rows = viewRowImpl.getAllRowsInRange();
for (Row row : rows) {
String innerChildItemId = (String)row.getAttribute("ChildItemId");
String innerCheckboxConfirmedStatus = (String)row.getAttribute("checkboxConfirmedStatus");
Boolean innerCheckboxConfirmed = (Boolean)row.getAttribute("checkboxConfirmed");
if(innerCheckboxConfirmed == true){
selectedRows.add(row);
