Current Date in the Text Field

Hi,
I have got a requirement where i have one text field and one data/time field. Once we select the date from the date field, the date selected in the date field should be reflected in text field in the format DD.MM.YY along with some other text.
for example,
if we select date as 03/02/2009 - Date Field, we should get it as
Today is (date with format DD.MM.YY)

On the exit of the Date field write the javascript code:
TextField.rawValue = "Today is " + this.rawValue

Current date & time in text field

I need to auto-fill a text field with four letters plus the current date and current time. The text field should populate when the user clicks a checkbox.
For example, if today is April 25, 2012 and the current time is 10:27 a.m., the text field should read: UNIS0425121027. (The time can be in military time or not - it doesn't matter.)
Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

Try the following in the initialize event of the text field.
Change the script language to FormCalc.
TextField1.rawValue = Concat("UNIS",Num2Date(Date(),"MMDDYY"),Num2Time(Time(),"HHMM"));
Thanks

Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8 - Add days to Current Date in another text field

Hi-
I am working on an expense report. I have six fields, CurrentDate, and countDate1 through countDate5. The CurrentDate is a Time/Date field which the user can select whatever date is needed with the drop down calendar. The other five countDate fields are "text" fields which will represent Monday through Friday. I would like to add zero days to whatever the user selects as the CurrentDate and make that appear in countDate1 which represents Monday(the CurrentDate the user selects will always be a Monday), add one day to whatever the user selects as the CurrentDate and make that appear in countDate2 which represents Tuesday...and so on. I realize this is probably basic for someone familiar with FormCalc but I'm very new at this.
This got me very close but I want the user to select the date and not have the CurrentDate already filled in.
CurrentDate - DateTime field, FormCalc calculation script:
num2date(Date())
Date1 - Text field, FormCalc calculation script:
Num2Date( Date2Num(CurrentDate.formattedValue))
Date2 - Text field, FormCalc calculation script:
Num2Date( Date2Num(CurrentDate.formattedValue) + 1 )
Thanks!
Brian

Here is an exmaple of adding days the script is used in the "exit" event for the date select field that has display format of "MM/DD/YYYY". Adding days requires add x number of days to the days since the epoch date for the current date, adding months or years one needs to manipulate the string parts of the date.
----- form1.#subform[0].InputDateField::exit: - (FormCalc, client) ---------------------------------
// fomatted string for selected date
var sFmtDateValue = $.formattedValue
var sMsg = Concat("Entered date formatted: ", sFmtDateValue) // build message string
sMsg = Concat(sMsg, "\u000a" ) // add new line to message
// convert date string to days since epoch date - format is important
var fDaysPast = Date2Num(sFmtDateValue, "MM/DD/YYYY")
// add 7 days to days past epoch date
var f7DaysPlus = fDaysPast + 7 // add 7 days
var s7DaysPlus = Num2Date(f7DaysPlus, "MMM DD, YYYY") // format string for 7 days plus
sMsg = Concat(sMsg, "\u000a", "Plus 7 Days: ", s7DaysPlus) // build message string
// add 14 days to days past epoch date
var f14DaysPlus = fDaysPast + 14 // add 7 days
var s14DaysPlus = Num2Date(f14DaysPlus, "MMMM DD, YYYY") // format string for 7 days plus
sMsg = Concat(sMsg, "\u000a", "Plus 14 Days: ", s14DaysPlus) // build message string
// display results
// work on months
// get parts of date past epoch date
var sFullYear = Num2Date(fDaysPast, "YYYY") // get 4 digit year form days past epoch date
var sMonth = Num2Date(fDaysPast, "MM") // get month form days past epoch date as number
var sDate = Num2Date(fDaysPast, "DD") // get date form days past epoch date as a number

How to populate data from dynamic drop down list to the text field

Hi,
I tried to populate data from dynamic drop down list to city field. I would like to concat data from drop down list.When selecting add button to add the item and select item from drop down list, data should be displayed in the text field. However, Please help. I spent alot of time to make it works I am not successful.
Please see the link below.

Thanks for your help

Hi Rosalin,
Loop the hidden table, get the values and populate drop down in each iteration.
DropDownList1.addItem("Text","Value");
You can use one more solution for this scenario. If it is a matter of 2,3 dropdowns, put three dropDowns in the form layout and give seperate static data binding to them. At run time make the dropDowns hide/visible as per the requirement.
Hope this helps.
Thanks & Regards,

How do I add a current date to a form field so that it will give me the current date each time it is opened?

I have adobe 9 pro. I am currently adding fields to a document and would like my date field to display the current date when the document is opened so that the user does not have to enter the date each time. How do I do that?

Have you searched for this issue. It has been answered many times.
Example Acrobat JavaScripts
Scroll down to the . Insert Today's Date into Form Field section.

Data in One Text Field or the Other

I have two numeric fields and there need to be a value in either one or the other not both, is there a way to make this happen.
Thanks

Steve,
What I was look for was if the user inputs data in the "SSN" field with would be unable to put data in the "Passport#" field and visa-versa.
Thanks

Auto date entry in text field not working

I have a text field named tdate, which is read-only and visible. I want Acrobat XI Pro to insert today's date when the form is opened. Here's what I have:
javascript code:
var f = this.getField("tdate");
if (!f.value) f.value = util.printd ("mmmm d, yyyy", new Date());
This code is inserted in Page properties / Actions /Page Open / run a JavaScript
nothing happens when the page is opened.
I have also tried, unsuccessfully, to enter this JavaScript code within the form field actions (mouse up), and nothing happens. I see from the forum comments that apparently this is successful for other users, but nothing seems to fill this text field. What am I doing wrong?
Bill

Thanks for your reply. I started to wonder whether or not the current field
that I created had somehow been corrupted due to my fooling around so I
deleted the field re-created it (and also randomly JavaScript debugger and
deleted the code there) and now the current date appears in the text field.
I wonder why Adobe doesn't simply allow the user to insert fields where the
field is filled with either the current date or the current time instead of
forcing the user to enter some JavaScript code. Not all users of Acrobat
professional want to get that involved.
Regards,
Bill

How to store/manipulate Date and long text fields with Dictionary project

I am able to save string values into my backend (SQL Server) database in my web dynpro project but I am getting errors dealing with my date string and my long text (comments) field.
I want to figure out both how I need to define the fields in the dictionary project, how to define the context variables in web dynpro, and how to code the statements to pull the values out of the context and into fields I can use in my SQL insert.
Currently I have the date defined in the dictionary project as "date" and the comments as a 256-character string.
In the web dynpro context I have the date field defined as "date" and the comments field defined as "string". Should I define a 256-character string type and use that as field type??
In the code I am using the following to get the values:
     String s9 = (String) wdContext.nodeReceipt().getElementAt(wdContext.nodeReceipt().getLeadSelection()).getAttributeValue("Comments");
String s5 = (String) wdContext.nodeReceipt().getElementAt(wdContext.nodeReceipt().getLeadSelection()).getAttributeValue("DateReceived");
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/mm/yyyy");
     try {
     Date dt = sdf.parse(s5);
     } catch (Exception e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
I then try to insert all of my values with the following code:
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
javax.sql.DataSource ds = (javax.sql.DataSource) ctx.lookup("jdbc/SAP/BC_JMS");
java.sql.Connection con = ds.getConnection();
java.sql.Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
stmt.executeUpdate("insert into AVD_GEN_REC(VENDOR,DATE_RECEIVED,TOTAL_PIECES,LOGGED_BY," +
     "ADDRESSED_TO,BLDG_NO,CARRIER,TRACKING_NO, COMMENTS) values('s1','s5','s2','s6','s3','s7','s4','s8','s9')");
   } catch (Exception e) {
         wdThis.wdGetAPI().getComponent().getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Exception "+e.getMessage());
Any help/ideas would be appreciated...

The comment error seems to have resolved itself but I still get an error with the date field:
Exception The SQL statement "INSERT INTO "AVD_GEN_REC" ("VENDOR","DATE_RECEIVED","TOTAL_PIECES","LOGGED_BY","ADDRESSED_TO","BLDG_NO","CARRIER","TRACKING_NO","COMMENTS") VALUES ('s1','d5','s2','s6','s3','s7','s4','s8','s9')" contains the semantics error[s]: type check error: new value (element number 2) is not assignable to column "DATE_RECEIVED"
The DATE_RECEIVED is defined in the data dictionary as "date", the context variable "DateReceived" is also a "date", and the statement to pull d5 is being stored to a "Date". Is there a difference between the "Date" and "date"?
Date d5   = wdContext.currentReceiptElement().getDateReceived();

Is there a way to print the check register with the Text field

Hi,
Is there a way to print the check register with the Text field and also each item's Text field?"
When we enter a invoice we enter a generic text on the Basic Data tab then enter a "+" on each individual line item which in turns defaults to the generic text. Just wanted to know if the check register could draw in the individual line item detail where we can enter text that relates to just that line item. Sort of like the MIR7 draws in the detail for each item.
Kindly help me in full fill the above requirement.
Thanks

How to use the separate symbol in the text field in the adobe form.

Hi,experts,
I dont know how to use the separate symbol to make a paragraph separate into several lines correctly in the text field in the adobe form.
Action:
1. config the ADS successfully.
2. create the adobe form with a mult-line textfield(binding the 'remark' context in the interface of the form) using sfp.
3. create a WDA for invoke the form and transfer the 'remark' context data.
I use the following codes to display the paragraph in the PDF document:
CONCATENATE
'1、aaaaaaaaaaa；'
'2、bbbbbbbbb '
'3、ccccccccccc'
'4、ddddddddd'
INTO remark .
lo_nd_z_hr_php_payslip->set_attribute(
EXPORTING
name = `REMARK`
value = remark ).
But I found all the content aren't paragraph separate correctly in the text field in the adobe form when I run the WDA.
Could you please give me some hints to make the paragraph separate correctly in PDF document? Thanks a lot in advance!
My email is : [email protected]
Best regards,
Tao

Hi,
If it is just a one word value then you could use this in the exist event;
this.rawValue
= util.printx(">?<*",this.rawValue);
This changes the first character (represented by the ?) to uppercase (represented by the >) and all trailing characters (represented by the *) to lowercase (represented by the <).
If you wanted something more general ... if they could also enter a middle name then you could call a function like;
function toTitleCase(textValue)
return textValue.toLowerCase().replace(/\b[a-z]/g, function replacer(match) { return match.toUpperCase(); });
This uses a regex to change all lowercase letters following a word boundary to uppercase.

Automatically add a current date at the end of the comments

Hi,
I have a form on a table with 5 fields... on one the field I am asking my users to enter comments...
I am looking for a functionality to automatically add a current date at the end of the comments, only when they are updated or newly filled in...
Please advice how can I do it... I am anticipating some sort of a trigger on column (when the data is modified)...
Thanks

automatically add a current date at the end of the comments, only when they are updated or newly filled inDo you want to add the date to the page item itself and hence show it to the end user as and when its changed, thn
Assuming comments item is named '*P1_COMMENTS* , add the following to the "execute on load"
$('P1_COMMENTS').change( function(){
var d = new Date();
$s('P1_COMMENTS', $v('P1_COMMENTS')+ d.toUTCString() );
});If its to be done only when updating ie in the PLSQL block
UPDATE <table name>
SET <comments _column> = ( SELECT DECODE( NVL(<comments _column>,'')
                                                                      ,NVL(:P1_COMMENTS,'')
                                                                      ,<comments _column>
                                                                      ,:P1_COMMENTS||TOCHAR(SYSDATE,'DD-MON-YYY')

Is there any way to print the data inside the Notes field of MIR6 Report

Hello Gurús.
We need to include the data inside the Notes field in the report MIR6 - INVOICE OVERVIEW - report.
Is there any way to print the data inside (comments) the Notes field as well in the Report ?
We found that the only way is to open the Notes and print it, but it takes time, any idea ?
Rgds.
MCM.

There's nothing built-in that does that. If you only have text fields and they don't have any formatting or other property that would prevent it (e.g., Date, character limit), you can run a simple script to populate each field with the field name, and then print. A more complicated approach would be a script that adds text annotations near/over each field that shows the field name. This would just be for documentation purposes, but it's possible. Post again if you'd like help with the first. You'll probably have to pay someone for the second approach if you don't want to do it yourself.

Marketing attribute in the text field, interactive script

Hello Gurus,
We are facing a problem in the interactive script, of the sap crm 7.0.
We know the possibility of set some of the customer data into the
script by filling bdc field inthe test field and then adding this text
field to a script question.
We did it in the customer data "***" by filling the bdc field with "ext
field marketing attribute interactive script" and this data is showed
in the script, but we can not show marketing attribute data in the
script by using text field and bdc field.
There is a possiblility of showing the marketing attribute in the text
field or it is imposible due the structure of bol in crm.
Thanks in advance.

Hello ,
To display or change the marketing attributes of a business partner in the script follow these steps:
1. Run the Interactive Script Editor.
2. Create a new Question and in the Answer Area drag and drop the "Marketing Attribute" dynamic answer.
3. Select the "Marketing attribute will display here when executing the script" object and go to tab "Dynamic Content Parameters".
4. Select the attribute set and the attribute name.
5. Save the question.
6. Drag and drop the question to your script.
7. Change the template of the question node to either "Person Marketing Attributes" or "Organization Marketing Attributes" depending on what type of business partner is expected to be confirmed at run time in the IC_AGENT role.
8 Save the script.
9. Run IC_AGENT or similar IC role.
10. Confirm an organization ( if you used "Organization Marketing Attributes" ).
11. Run the script.
When you reached the question maintained above, the marketing attributes will render for that business partner, if they exists or will be created if they don't exists . To be created a button that will do a navigation is required. It means that the question will have to be linked to a next question or to itself by this button (to itself is required only if it is the last or the only question in the script). To suggest to the user that he or she has to click on the button, to save, is probably better to name the button "Save".

pabi

Hello Pabitra,
I had a similar issue in my Project.
Please verify if the SMOD enhancement MBCF0002 (EXIT_SAPMM07M_001) is active in your system.
If this is the case, verify from two angles:
a) Whether the Enhancement was accidentally activated - If yes, then De-activate the same
b) If there is some logic coded in the User Exit, but, the Text is somehow not determined...even the existing content in the text field (input to EXIT_SAPMM07M_001) will get vanished.
Hope that your problem will be resolved by this. Pls reward points.
