Creating a calendar of events based upon selections made in other tables

I have a Sheet that I've started working on the includes a variety of pop-up menus that reference look up tables on another sheet that contain names and prices of products. In conjunction with the drop down menus are a series of check boxes for the months in which one would want to receive the products. in each group of drop downs the order of what is selected can vary and be for example, a,b,c, or a,c,b, etc...
I want to create a calendar looking portion of the sheet that would then express in what month each product was being received.
I have used a LOOKUP function successfully for most of this but it seems to be erroring out in odd places. I've created a third table that looks at the first one I described, does a LOOKUP by product name and then if the product name is found it looks in the columns containing checkboxes for each month and returns either a true or false. Then on the calendar sheet - An IF statement is used to find if TRUE and then it uses text formatted as webdings to fill the box.
I hope that explains things well enough. Any help in deciphering either why the LOOKup feature is working most places but not all or in providing a more elegant solution would be appreciated.
Thank you,

Your situation seems a little too complicated to provide concrete, meaningful suggestions without actually seeing what you are doing. A screen shot might be helpful, but your spreadsheet seems complicated enough that even that might not be sufficient. I can give a couple of general comments that maybe you can put to good use.
(1) I cannot remember a time when I used LOOKUP(); almost always VLOOKUP() is what is needed (and rarely HLOOKUP() given the standard way data is typically stored in tables).
(2) As formulas are filled down and across (especially complicated ones) it is easy to mess up the absolute cell referencing for the ranges that the lookup functions require.

Prepopulate dropdown list based on selections made in other fields

I wonder if anyone can help?
A form with a radio button group containing two radio buttons "yes" and "no".
Below the radio buttons is a dropdown list that has three items in the list "option A, option B, & option C.
Below that, is another dropdown list, with three items, "10000", "15000" & "20000"
How can I do the following?
When radio button "yes" is selected, and dropdown list "option A is selected, it prepopulates "10000" in the bottom dropdown list
When radio button "yes" is selected, and dropdown list "option B is selected, it prepopulates "15000" in the bottom dropdown list
When radio button "yes" is selected, and dropdown list "option C is selected, it prepopulates "20000" in the bottom dropdown list
Thanks in advance!

Creating a Dynamic Update Statement based on Select

hi,
i'm trying to create a dynamic update statement based on select statement
my requirment is to query a joint tables and get the results then based on the results i need to copy all the data and create an update statement for each row
for ex
the update statement should look like this
update iadvyy set SO_SWEEP_CNT = '1' where inst_no = '003' and memb_cust_no = 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa';
and the select statement like the following
select substr(key_1,11,9) account_no,sord_mast SO_SWEEP_CNT from
select acct_no,count(*) sord_mast from
(select from_acct_no acct_no,update_mast
from sord where FROM_SYS in ('DEP','INV') and TERM_DATE > 40460
union all
select to_acct_no acct_no,update_mast
from sord where TO_SYS in ('DEP','INV') and TERM_DATE > 40460)
group by Acct_no)
right outer join
invm
on
key_1 = '003'||acct_no
where sord_mast > 0;
so taking the above two columns from the above select statement and substitue the values as separate update statement.
is that doable , please share your knowledge with me if poosible
thanks in advanced

is that doable , please share your knowledge with me if poosibleyes
The standard advice when (ab)using EXECUTE IMMEDIATE is to compose the SQL statement in a single VARCHAR2 variable
Then print the SQL before passing it to EXECUTE IMMEDIATE.
COPY the statement & PASTE into sqlplus to validate its correctness.

How to get value in Second Drop Down based on selection made in first dropd

Hi All,
I have a table with first two columns as dropdown.
The values in first drop down are fixed. However the value in second dropdown should be populated based on selection made in first .
e.g
First Column had different departments say IT, SALES, HR.
Based on department selected I have to populate employee of that department.
For first dropdown I have taken Drop down by index.
What should I select for second drop down and achieve desired functionality? Please guide.
Regards,
Madhvika

Hi
Use drop down by key for fixed values IT, SALES, HR. create on_select action for that drop down.
in on_select method code like this..
DATA lo_nd_segment1 TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.
DATA lo_el_segment1 TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element.
DATA ls_segment1 TYPE wd_this->Element_segment1.
data lt_segment1 type wd_this->elements_segment1.
DATA lv_segment TYPE wd_this->Element_segment1-segment.
data lr_column type ref to cl_wd_table_column.
navigate from <CONTEXT> to <SEGMENT1> via lead selection
lo_nd_segment1 = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_segment1 ).
get element via lead selection
lo_el_segment1 = lo_nd_segment1->get_element( ).
lo_el_segment1 = WDEVENT->GET_CONTEXT_ELEMENT( 'CONTEXT_ELEMENT' ).
get all declared attributes
lo_el_segment1->get_static_attributes(
IMPORTING
static_attributes = ls_segment1 ).
now ls_segment1 contains your first drop down selection value.
DATA : lv_dropdown type string .
lv_dropdown = ls_segment1-segment.
if lv_dropdown = 'IT'.
// here fill your second drop down based on IT value.
endif.
Hope it solves.
Cheers,
Kris.

How to set FIX based on selection made in planning form (HP 9.2)

Hello,
In order to calculate new values in my business rule I have to use CREATENONMISSINGBLK ON option. But it takes too long time to complete the calculation. So, I need to set FIXes in my business rule in order to keep database selection as small as possible.
Is there any possibility to pass page selections prom planning data form to my custom business rule?
For example form:
Columns: Period
Rows: Account
Page: Year, Entity, Version, CustomDimension
In my rule a need to set following fixes:
Account: Custom fixed List
Period: Custom fixed List
Year: Custom fixed List
Entity: Get one values selected in data form
Version: Get one values selected in data form
CustomDimension Get one values selected in data form
OR
is it possible to set default values for Run-time prompts to be equal to selected members in page dimensions?
Thanks.

Hi,
You can set up variables in your business rules so for example,
Create Variable rtVersion, set it as Type member and dimension Version and Usage-Type as "Run-Time Prompt".
Then in your business rule code you refer to the variable using [rtVersion]
Now in planning the design of the form when you choose the properites for the business rule make sure "Use Members on Data Form" is ticked, and run on save.
Now when the form is saved a pop up window will appear passes the selected version member into the run time prompt text box, this will then be passed into your business when submitted.
You can also hide prompts if you want it be sent directly into the business rule without any user intervention.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

How can I construct a list of text values in Table 2 from text values in Table 1:Column A, based upon a test value in Table 1:Column B?

I am looking for a way to essentially import a select group of values from one table into another. If, for instance, I have a list of names in Column A and a list of colors in Column B, I would like to be able to compile a list of the names which coincide with each distinct color, and do so in a new table specific to that color. Probably an obvious solution, but I'm a relative newbie with Numbers and my spreadsheet experience is fairly limited so I apologize if this is embarrassingly rudimentary. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

You can extract a subset in a separate table by adding a helper index column to your table with the original data and using a formula in the separate table.
But first, have you tried just using a filter on the table to view a subset of the data? You would simply filter on a color in your Column B and would immediately see the names specific to that color in Column A. And you could copy-paste those names elsewhere as needed. No extra columns. No formulas. No fuss.

IRecruitment - custom page based on selected row in advanced table

HI,
We are implementing an addition to iRec. From the vacancy search page I have added an extra image column called worklog to the advanced table. Within the attributes I have set the view instance and and view attribute to
View Attribute VacancyId
View Instance IrcVacancyVO
However this value does not get passed across. I have even called the image ID VacancyId in the hope that this value pair would be posted to the custom app I have written.
I know this is a pretty low tech question on here, but does anyone know how I can pass the id of the selected row acroos to my custom page?
TIA,
Simon

Hi Simon,
In OATables we can not get the handle of current row.
The alternate solution is to call an AM method, execute the method and get the value from the VO row. Return it back to CO and then you can call your new page from the Search page in iREC.
it should work. Let me know if you are facing any problem.
Thanks

Autopopulating based on selection made

I've a customer that wants a drop down field formatted in such a way, that if, for example, they select 3/8" diameter in one drop down, the second dropdown or text field will automatically show up as 3,500 lbs. Is there a script in adobe acrobat that will make this happen?

There are two fields, the Diameter field, and the Required Proof Load field. The Diameter field has 18 different diameter sizes. Each diameter size has a specific weight that needs to go into the Required Proof Load field.

Dynamically creating a AS3.0 code based on animations made at runtime

Hello everyone,
I am new to AS3.0 and always getting tasks that is very very challenging. Here is the challenge.
Need to create a flash application where the user can create animations using images(upload) and text dynamically and export to a swf file. This was my previous post and the answers from the forum members was "impossible - 95%" and "Possible - 5%" (my average calcu).
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/678202?tstart=0
Now i got an idea from the "Possible - 5%". That is
as per the discussion in the above link there are compliers that can create swf files from the command prompt using haxe, swfmill, neko etc etc. these requires a AS3.0 class file to get the output.
now my question is can we generate the AS3.0 code from the swf file where the animations using images, text are done on the runtime stage. after the user is done with his animations he can click publish btn were we need to create the AS3.0 code and send to the command promt for getting the swf file as output.
i think this task is quite hard. but any help regarding this will let me in a right direction.
thanks in adv for any helps

Assuming that WYSIWYG concept is valid, you are better off with Flex. Flex offers xml structure that you can use as template and just write values. Then this XML can be used by compiler as it is used in Flex.
In any case, this is a very tedious and advanced task you are embarking on. If you are talking about couple of objects and simple animations - it is not that bad. But if there is more - it is difficult mainly because of the multitude of use cases and exponential growth in objects relationships from both display list and user interaction standpoint.
I was a part of such project about 2 years ago and I see that one has to be an excellent UX engineer, very good architect and an advanced AS developer in order to make this kind of application worth pursuing.

Adding a foreign key based on composite key of other table

Hi All,
I have two tables one named 'products' (T1) and other 'codes' (T2). The product_code column in T1 needs to reference code_id values where code_type="STREET" from T2. T2 primary key is based on two columns 'code_id' and 'code_type'.
The issue is t1 table has only one of the column from T2. i.e; product_code (T1) corresponds to code_id (T2) and code_type should always have value "STREET"
I am not getting how to implement the foreign key constraint on T1 in such scenario. Hope my explanation is clear. Feel free to ask for more clarifications. Please suggest.
Thanks

Way to make Reader Mobile (IOS/Android) to fill in form cells based on input made in other cell?

Hi, Is there a way to make Acrobat Reader Mobile (IOS/Android) to fill in form cells based on input in another cell?
I made a timesheet where based on an activity code input in a dropdown box the description corresponding the activity code is displayed automatically in another cell.(see below)
This is working flawlessly as long as I am using a PC, however does not work on any kind of phone.(I suppose this feature is not supported on Acrobat Mobile yet)
My question is if anybody can suggest an alternative method for mentioned feature which works also on phones?
Any suggestion would be much appreciated
In the Format field:
if(event.willCommit)
console.println(event.value);
switch(event.value)
   case "    1      01":
    this.getField("REMARK1").value = "Offloading";
    break;
   case "    2      01":
    this.getField("REMARK1").value = "Preparation";
    break;
   case "   19     44":
    this.getField("REMARK1").value = "Support-3rd party insp/contract.";
    break;   case " ":
    this.getField("REMARK1").value = " ";
    break;
Regards: Robert

Try getting rid of that console.println statement. If that doesn't help, it should work if you convert that from a format script of the dropdown to a calculate script of the REMARK1 field.

ADF BC: Creating updatable VO based upon DB View with "instead of" trigger

Hello all,
I have got an interesting issue. I have an Oracle DB view that is used to hide some complexity in the underlying DB design (it does some unions). This view is updatable because we have created an "instead of" update trigger to update the correct table when a row is updated. This is working fine in SQL.
Next, we have created an ADF Entity object based upon the view, specifying an appropriate PK for the DB View. Then, we have created an updatable VO based upon the EO. All well and good so far. The issue we have is in trying to commit changes to the DB - because the ADF BC framework is trying to lock the row to update (using SELECT ... FOR UPDATE), it's not working because of ORA-02014 - cannot select FOR UPDATE from view with DISTINCT, GROUP BY, etc.
This leads me to thinking about overridding doSelect() on the EO as hinted here http://radio.weblogs.com/0118231/stories/2005/07/28/differenceBetweenViewObjectSelectAndEntityDoselectMethod.html
As a temporary test, we have over-ridden the EO's doSelect to call super.doSelect(false) and it does work, although we will have lost update issues as detailed in Steve's article.
My questions:
1). Is overriding doSelect() the correct thing here? Perhaps there is a better way of handling this problem? I do have a base EO class from which all of the EO's extend, so adding this behavior should be straightforward.
2). Does anyone have example doSelect implementation? I am thinking of overriding doSelect for my EO and calling super.doSelect (lock=false), but then I need to deal with some possible exceptions, no?
Kind regards,
John

Hi John,
I have exactly the same issue as you experienced back in January. I have a complex data modelling requirement which requires the need to pivot rows into columns using ROW_NUMBER() and PARTITION clauses. To hide the complexity from the middle tier, I have created a database view and appropriate INSTEAD OF triggers and mapped my EO to the view. I have overriden the lock() method on the EO implementation class (to avoid ORA-02014) and would like to try the same solution you used with the pl/sql call to lock the record.
My question is, how did you manage the release of the lock if the transaction was not rolled back or committed by your application i.e. if the user closed the browser for instance.
In my naivity, I would like to think that the BC4J framework would release any locks for the database session when it found the servlet session to be terminated however my concern is that the lock would persist and cause complications.
Any assistance greatly appreciated (if you would be willing to supply your lock() method and pl/sql procedure logic I would be even more grateful!).
Many thanks,
Dave

Query on event based job in a client schema and not SYS schema

Hi, I am fairly new to oracle job scheduler and wanted your inputs on how to create a event based job that sends a mail based on success of another job.
I was able to implement this with the jobs being created under SYS schema. I did get email notifcation when errors were logged in exception table.
However, now the requirement has changed to create the jobs under a client specific schema.
The jobs got created successfully in CLIENT schema but the event based job is not working. It does not send the email notification.
I feel this is to do with not correctly subscribing to the event queue {sys.scheduler$_event_queue}.
Can CLIENT schema use the agent "AGENT" created under SYS to subscribe to the Scheduler event queue {sys.scheduler$_event_queue}? CLIENT is the schema in which the all jobs and procedures are created.
BEGIN
DBMS_AQADM.ENABLE_DB_ACCESS('AGENT', 'CLIENT');
END;
--Main Job that will load data and errors will be logged into exception table
BEGIN
dbms_scheduler.create_job( job_name=> 'CLIENT.LOAD_DATA',
job_type=>'PLSQL_BLOCK',
job_action=>'BEGIN CLIENT.p_loaddata;
END;',
start_date=>systimestamp,
repeat_interval=>'FREQ=MINUTELY;INTERVAL=1;',
number_of_arguments=>0,
enabled=> true);
END;
--set raise_events attribute = job_succeeded for main job
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.set_attribute ('CLIENT.LOAD_DATA', 'raise_events', DBMS_SCHEDULER.job_succeeded);
END;
--Event Job that will send email based on condition. Condition is checked in procedure CLIENT.p_check_sendmail; If errors are found in the exception table, this job will raise exception and will be JOB_FAILED status. This job will send a email notification.
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_job (       job_name          => 'CLIENT.EMAIL_JOB',
job_type          => 'PLSQL_BLOCK',
job_action        => 'BEGIN CLIENT.p_check_sendmail;                                   END;',
event_condition => 'tab.user_data.event_type = ''JOB_SUCCEEDED'' and tab.user_data.object_name = ''LOAD_DATA''',
queue_spec        => 'sys.scheduler$_event_queue,AGENT',
enabled          => true);
END;
BEGIN
dbms_scheduler.add_job_email_notification ( job_name => 'CLIENT.EMAIL_JOB',     recipients => '[email protected]',events => 'JOB_FAILED');
END;
Is the way i am subscribing to the event queue correct? Could you please share an example/document of event based job in a schema other than SYS and how subscription is being done to event queue?
Thanks

Hi,
It's a good decision you made because you shouldn't create objects in the SYS schema. I see you're using the add_job_email_notification procedure, so I'm assuming you're on 11g onwards.
This procedure is meant to make the job easy for you. That is, you don't need to worry about setting up AQ, the procedure does it all for you. All you need to do is setup the mail server if not already done, and call this procedure to add the mail notification. That's it.
You can also specify a filter to the add_job_email_notification procedure, so maybe you could specify directly your CLIENT.LOAD_DATA job to this procedure.

How to update Activity based upon Campaign

Hi !
We have created some Campaigns with campaignelements.
These elements has been "connected" to different BP - based upon roles.
The corresponding Activities, then has to be updated (Fields: Dates and Status)
Our task is to create a routine/program, where, based upon Campaign, the corresponding Activities can be updated.
Could any one please tell us how to do this?
Regards
Torben

Hi Torben,
I hope I've got your problem correct. I think that a update of the Activities created during the campaign is not possible. You can try to search for the activities created by the campaign throu the link.
If I've got you wrong could you describe your business case in more detail please.
