Custom Date Picker

Hi,
Is it possible to customize the date picker so that the calendar is flat based, i.e. the calendar just shows up next to the calendar image instead of appearing it in anothe window?
Regards
Venus

Well, i got a date picker created from APEX, and obviously to modify it, I will need to change the javascript call. But I'm not sure where i can edit this.
coz my date picker is calling a javascript function getcal0_p_t03_8() and i don't know where i can change this as i don't see it anywhere in my items

How to blur a text field populated by a date picker

Hello,
I have a text field, it is displayed as a date picker.
The date picker can populate the said text field as normal.
However, I have a onBlur="javascript:func" for this text field.
When the date picker has populated or changed the
text field, the JavaScript function is not called.
How can I call the JavaScript function after date picker window closes?
Or, is it possible to modify
wwv_flow_utilities.SHOW_AS_POPUP_CALENDAR procedure?
I do not want to submit the page.
My JavaScript function uses Ajax to save the text in the text field.
Thanks in advance!

vdesign is correct. If you look at the javascript for the date picker it is specifically looking for onChange so that if one exists it will call it. I believe this is the only attribute that can be added by default to a date picker....(i found this out cause I had to build a custom date picker that let the user pick months, but had to look and function just like the delivered one)

Foreign trade and customs data should be picked automatically in delivery

Dear All,
Foreign trade and customs data should be picked automatically in delivery note and in the invoice once we enter it in the master data for L/C Local Sales for example country Saudi arabia to Saudi Arabia in vi95 or any other transaction you have for this particular master data entry.please help

Check the customizing settings under
IMG - SD - Foreign Trade/Customs - Basic Data for Foreign Trade - Define Business Transaction Types And Default Value
And the data should be picked up from Material Master record in Foreign trade export view.
They are checked as mandatory fields according to customizing under:
IMG - SD - Foreign Trade/Customs - Control Foreign Trade Data in MM and SD Documents - Incompleteness Schemas for Foreign Trade Data
Also, refer following link:
[Customizing Foreign Trade Master Data |http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?spaceKey=ERPLO&title=CustomizingForeignTradeMasterData&decorator=printable]

IC AGENT, on new call receive how customer data is picking & displaying

HI All,
I am first time dealing with IC Agent Call center....
At call center once new call come, then on based on Mobile number or Landline then Search screen defaultly
providing us the Business Partner/ Customer details exists for that Mobile/Landline number,
so , what currently problem is our End users some how changing the Land line number with 91, region code with land line to Only 8 DIGIT land line while BP creation steps or different other ways,
so for such BP with land line number of 8 Digits in Master, then no BP/Customer search results Is finding,
so now I need to make functionality to work properly as input is with 91 + region code + 8 digit land line,
but at master data is with only 8 digits number, so programattically map both equivalent, so search provide us result
for such land line number's BP/Customer,
so where we can enhance the component to make picking of data for BP/Customer...?
which component we need to touch, which views...?
which are Function modules it is using to pick BP/Customer data, is there any SPRO config for function modules using...?
Thanking you.

Vijay Mekala

Hello Vijay,
search of BPs is done in FM BUPA_SEARCH_2. You can put an external breakpoint there and find how it works through the call stack.

Custom Integrator - Date Picker/LOV does not return a value to the cell

Hi,
I have configured a webADI template with a date picker in it. Though the picker is rendered when i double-click on the cell, the selected date is not populated back. Same happens for any other list of values may render in the integrator. Any suggestions on debugging this issue.
Regards,
Vinayaka

I have got the LOV working now. The issue was that I had not provided the table-select-column with the interface column name. It was set to the table column name.

how can I get a date picker or wheel to show up in the form to make filling in a form with a lot of dates more easy?

There is no built-in date picker available for forms created in Acrobat. There are some third-party solutions involving JavaScript (either a large collection of fields or a custom dialog) though. Also, text fields with date formatting will use a wheel type date picker on Android/iOS devices with Adobe Reader.

Goods receipt of customer consignment pick-up

We would like to receive customer consignment pick-up directly into blocked stock.
The standard setup for customer consignment pick-up receives it into unrestricted stock.
Does anybody know how to do that?

How to Change UI element from input Field to Date Picker

Hi All,
One Custom View is created in which we are pulling some fields from a custom context node created using the value Node.
For one of the field which is already an input field we need to convert it to date picker.
in the GET_P_METHOD
CASE IV_PROPERTY.
WHEN 'fieldType'.
rv_value = cl_bsp_dlc_view_descriptor=>field_type_radio.
WHEN 'radioCols'.
rv_value = '1'.
ENDCASE.
We can change the attribute to clbsp_dlc_view_descriptor_ and bring
checkbox,radiobutton,hyperlink and all but not finding anything for Date picker.
Can anyone suggest a method by which we can convert a UI element to Date Picker.
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Sijo

The technical data type for that field should be DATS then input help will automatically come.
Also in get_m method of that attribute should have
metadata = cl_crm_uiu_bt_date_tools=>get_m_date( ir_model_binding = me
iv_attribute_path = attribute_path ).
Regards,
Shobhit

Date Picker with Previous and Next Year Options

Hi All,
I am implementing a date picker in my application which is tied to an attribute of type PA0001-BEGDA. Date Picker as such works fine but navigating to previous year and Next year options are not available. User has to go month by month to different years if they have to navigate.
Is this the normal behavior of the Date Picker or am I missing something else to get the previous and Next year icons in the Date Picker.
Thanks,
Nagarajan.

hmm..I tried using the select options and it did give the same date picker with the previous and Next navigation icons...The only problem with the select options is that its a single field which has the range and can accept multiple values too...
I tried to figure out how the date picker that we use in the custom application and the one in Select Options differ but no luck...Does this ring any bell?
Thanks,
Nagarajan.

How to subtract the month from an item type Date Picker

Hi everybody!!
I´m building an application (V4.2) in wich customer introduce a date (item P11_F_ACTIVIDAD, Display as Date Picker). I need to sustract the month from that field and use it in a SQL query to fetch all rows from a table that met that condition (column F_ACTIVIDAD) . The WHERE clause should has something like this: WHERE substr(to_char(h.F_ACTIVIDAD,'ddmmyyyy'),3,2)= substr(to_char(:P11_F_ACTIVIDAD,'ddmmyyyy'),3,2) but SQL engine does not see ":P11_F_ACTIVIDAD" like a column name..... Of course, it is not a column name.
I appreciate recomend me an idea to overcome this issue.
Thanks so much!

In APEX, items can certainly be used as bound variables in a SQL statement; like this.
SELECT emp.ename,
       emp.hiredate,
       EXTRACT (MONTH FROM emp.hiredate) hiredate_month,
       EXTRACT (MONTH FROM :p11_f_actividad) datepicker_month
FROM emp
WHERE SUBSTR (TO_CHAR (emp.hiredate, 'ddmmyyyy'), 3, 2) =
          SUBSTR (TO_CHAR ( :p11_f_actividad, 'ddmmyyyy'), 3, 2)

Custom Date format in InfoPath DatePicker without code

Hello,
I am trying to customize the date format in my date picker on my InfoPath form. I went to the date picker properties and was able to change it so that it displays the format in "14-Mar-01" but I want to really customize and have it formatted to look
like the following "MMM-YY" format. Is there a way to go about setting this format without custom code? I am unable to use any server side code for my forms.
Thank you!

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to customize the date format like “MMM-YY” without custom code.
The date format which is set in InfoPath Form is different from the date column’s default format in SharePoint.
In SharePoint, the default format of the date column is depended on the selection of the “Time Zone”, “Region”, “Calendar” options in the “Regional Settings” of Site Settings.
However, the date format which is set in InfoPath Form only works on the items’ NewForm, EditForm, DispForm in the lists.
I recommend that you can create a calculated column based on the date column with this formula: =TEXT(Date,"MMM-YY").
Then, you can modify view to display the calculated column and hide the date column in the list.
The result is shown as below:
Thanks,
Yumi Fu

Help on Date Picker

Hi All,
Is there any date pciket UI element available . I am not able to see any in type of UI elements avaiable in my NWDS.
Thanks
Supriya.

Hi Friend,
Binding the input field to an attribute of date type will automatically bring in the date picker and the standard validations for that. So, you needn't worry about it. In case you need to have your own date format and your custom validations over it, then I am afraid you would have to bind this input field with a string type attribute and have a dateNavigator UI element as popup on click of a button next to input field to browse for date, but it would unnecessarily be an overhead on performance of the application.
