Descriptive Flexfield Manual Updation

Dear All,
Please tell me, how to update descriptive flexfield data of attribute11 column in oe_order_lines_all, while line has been closed.
Can we browse the table in toad and update the data manually?
Regards,
Jamil

I don't think that is possible.
Oracle has the functionality to transfer Req. Distribution DFF to PO Distribution DFF. But it does not work for Req Header or Req Line DFF.
Hope this helps,

  • Updating PO Lines Descriptive Flexfield

    We're currently still on R11.5.10.2 and we're customizing the Purchase Orders form by adding an option under the Tools menu to mass update several different fields.  One of the fields happens to be a descriptive flexfield on the PO line.  We're able to update the DFF, but the actual updated value doesn't seem to be reflected/displayed after we perform the update.  If we cursor and tab to the DFF and open it up, it actually has the updated value, but when we close the DFF field, it still displays the old value.  We've tried different calls to see if we can refresh the displaying of DFF, but no luck.  How can we customize to accomplish this in the form?

    It's a straight update to the base table from the PO form.  We're just assigning the values to the DFF (in this case, ATTRIBUTE1) and let the form update the record.  When we assign the value to the ATTRIBUTE1 field, we cannot see this change right away.  If we tab to the DFF, the latest value is there.  And when we tab out of it, the latest value is not being reflected.  In other words, the DFF is not displaying the latest value.  It is only after you save the data that it displays the updated value.   I was hoping that there may be some API related call to DFF that we can make to display the change right away before the data is saved, but I'm not able to get this to work within the form.

  • FNDLOAD for Descriptive Flexfield update

    Hey everyone,
    Just wanted to consult you on a matter,
    I've updated a descriptive flexfield definition (moved some of the segments from GLOBAL to a new context I created = I deleted from global, that freed the attributes again, and then I defined them under a new context field for that DFF).
    Now - to move that setup to another instance, I download and uploaded DFF via FNDLOAD.
    At first - update was not successful due to the fact that attributes used in new context were occupied by global.
    So -
    my idea was to just delete ALL DFF definitions in new instance, and then use FNDLOAD to upload.
    Turned out ok, and update seems successful.
    I just fear deleting DFF definitions completely might harm something and I feel I might be missing something here.
    (After all, if it should be OK, why doesn't FNDLOAD delete old definition during update process and then create the new definition , like it does with personalizations??)
    Would love to hear your ideas before I do the same on production instances...
    Thanks,
    Aaron

    Aaron,
    I believe you should not delete a DFF, instead you will have to disable it.

    https://metalink2.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=176867.1
    Did you try to use UPLOAD_MODE=REPLACE? This option will replace your current values with the values you have in the file.
    If you want to upload any new items in the file that do not currently exist in your database, use "CUSTOM_MODE=FORCE" option.

  • Is it possible to delete a Descriptive Flexfield?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to delete a Descriptive Flexfield?
    If yes, how?
    Thanks,
    Ravi

    Thank you Fadi. I am trying to reload DFFs using FNDLOAD utility from DEV instance to TEST instance. As the flexfields are already there, it does not appear to be reloading them (no error messages in the FNDLOAD log though), because I don't see the DFFs being updated with the latest changes.
    So, I was thinking if I delete the existing ones, maybe it will reload correctly. But, if I cannot delete the existing DFFs, there is no way to get them corrected, other than manually doing it on the TEST environment.

  • The value in flexfield context reference web bean does not match with the value in the context of the Descriptive flexfield web bean BranchDescFlex. If this in not intended, please go back to correct the data or contact your Systems Administrator for assi

    Hi ,
    We have enabled context sensitive DFF in Bank Branch Page for HZ_PARTIES DFF , We have created Flex Map so that only bank branch context fields are only displayed in the bank branch page and  as we know party information DFF is shared by supplier and Customer Page so we dint want to see any Bank Branch fields or context information in those pages.
    We have achieved the requirement but when open existing branches bank branch update is throwing below error message :
    "The value in flexfield context reference web bean does not match with the value in the context of the Descriptive flexfield web bean BranchDescFlex. If this in not intended, please go back to correct the data or contact your Systems Administrator for assistance."
    this error is thrown only when we open existing branches, if we save existing branch and open then it is not throwing any error message.
    Please let us know reason behind this error message.
    Thanks,

    You are kidding?  It took me about 3 minutes to scroll down on my tab to get to the triplex button!

  • Descriptive flexfield for different purchase order types

    Hi,
    Can i have a descriptive flexfield for different purchase order types?
    Scenario : I have two purchase order types
    1. Blanket : done from req--> auto create --> standard PO
    2. Standard --> Direct PO
    Regards
    846691

    You can use darpan77's suggestion for context sensitive DFF. See http://oracle.anilpassi.com/context-sensitive-descriptive-flexfields.html for an example.
    However, both options you mentioned talk about standard po. Is the difference in how they are generated? (One is manual and the other is autocreated?)

  • Descriptive flexfield setup

    Hi, need help and advise.
    I have created a descriptive flexfield for attribute17 column of hz_cust_site_uses_all table with value set 'Yes/No' (LOV type) for validation.
    My problem is how to make the descriptive flexfield to reflect the existing value store in this column as default value as the existing records
    store with 'Y' or 'N' in the table. 
    Regards,
    BE.

    Hi, thanks for respond.
    the value is updated correctly with 'Y' for attribute17 in the table for selected customers via API as the status return from API was 'S' - Success.
    Actually the value set assigned to flexfield is using the 'Yes' and 'No' from the fnd_lookups table and defaulted to 'No' for this flexfield. 
    So, even I have updated with 'Y' in the table but the flexfield is still reflecting the default value 'No' at the form level.
    When setup for the flexfield, the 'Synchronize with Reference Field' is enabled and context code is 'BILL_TO' and 'Global Data Elements'.
    With the same table, I have no problem for attribute12 with the context code 'Global Data Elements'
    but I am having problem for attribute17 with the context code 'BILL_TO'.
    Regards,
    BE.

  • Item categories descriptive flexfield

    Hi,
    I want to change item categories descriptive flexfield on production system and add two more segments.
    Should I do it after no user would be working on inventory or there would be no problem in adding or chnaging descriptive flexfield in live systen?
    /Z

    There is always a small chance that a user who happens to be updating the category may get an error if you do it during day-time.
    So try it in off-hours.
    You said "descriptive" but I assume you mean the "key" flexfield for categories.
    If you add 2 segments, it is important that you update existing categories and make sure they are valid with the new structure.
    Also, if those old categories were used in Purchasing, you may get errors.

  • I'm trying to add a playlist manually to my iPhone 4. It won't let me because it's trying to delete all of the music currently on my iPhone. Is there any way to prevent this from happening in order to start manually updating it?

    Are you leaving the box unchecked to Manually manage music & videos? You don't need to to add anything to the iPhone.
    Simply drag the playlist to the iPhone to manually add it.

  • Cannot delete songs from iPod when in manual update mode

    Hi
    I am using iTunes 7 and i'm trying to delete some songs just from my iPod and i have always used the manual update option.
    The problem is when i go into the songs on my iPod and go into a playlist and try to delete the songs within a playlist it won't let me. BUT when i search for those same songs within my iPod library (library shows all songs on the iPod) i can delete them.
    So my problem is i cannot delete songs within playlists just from my iPod. I know that deleting the playlist on the left hand side navigation bar will still keep the songs there, it will only delete the actual playlist.
    Also when i select a song(s) the edit menu is all greyed out except for copy.
    Can anyone help please.

    Try using the key combination Shift-Delete when deleting from a song from a playlist, this will delete it from the library as well.

  • How can I switch from Automatic to Manual update without losing songs?

    I have on my ipod songs from another computer, however I'm afraid to plug it into my computer because my computer is set to automatic update for my ipod. Is there a way for me to switch my ipod to manual update without losing songs on my ipod when plugging it in? thanks.

    Here is what you do:
    Open iTunes.
    Plug in your ipod.
    hold control and shift at the same time. this stops your ipod from updating automatically. Hold this until your ipod is finished docking.
    Then go to edit>preferences>ipod
    then change the setting from update automatically to update manually.

  • Turning back on the "manual update" feature in iTunes

    Ok, there's two iPods, mine and my sisters, and we both use the same iTunes. My iPod is set up to update automatically whenever I connect it to the computer and hers is set so that it doesnt automatically update when it's connected, but I just drag and drop certain songs into her iPod.
    Now, I tried putting a new video on her iPod and in the videos tab of her iPod in iTunes I clicked on upload all the videos, it wouldnt let me drag on drop.
    This has changed the settings on the iPod and now whenever i connect it to the computer it starts updating the iPod with my library.
    Is there any way of putting this setting back to the manual update function? As it is im scared to leave it connected for too long because i dont want it to erase songs she has on her iPod that i no longer have on my iTunes.
    Cheers people, thanks for any info you can give me.

    Just a thought - connect your own ipod, let it sync automatically and then change the itunes sync setting to manual. Maybe that changes the next syncing of your sister's ipod to manual as well?

  • Using a second computer with an ipod set to manual update

    I want to prevent my ipod 60GB video which is set to manual update on my G5 from being updated when I plug it into my powerbook. The powerbook assumes the ipod is available for auto update. How do I mount the iPod without iTunes automatically replacing its contents. I can't "preset" iTunes in its preferences to treat the iPod as a manual drive as it just says: "no iPod connected. As soon as I attach the iPod the auto update starts. Are there keystrokes to interrupt the update so I can set the iPod preferences on my Powerbook?
    Thanks

    Hold down the ⌥ and ⌘ keys while connecting your iPod. Keep them down until iTunes has opened and your iPod shows in the Source list.

  • Can't manually update shuffle on two computers.

    I have my music on two computers. One is my Mac at home; the other is a Windows machine at work (all my own music). My computer at home was originally used to load some songs onto my Suffle. Sometimes I download a podcast at work and want to listen to it on my way home from my Shuffle, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to manually load a single song onto the Shuffle at work without redisignating the work computer as the computer associated with this iPod and erasing all the songs.
    Nowhere can I find the "manual update" option that everyone talks about in the software. It just isnt' there!
    Of course, I know I'm missing something, which is why I'm posting to the forum.

    I think I finally found the answer to my question from reading several other posts on this matter. I've learned that the Shuffle is different than at least some other iPods in that it is NOT able to be loaded with songs from more than one computer. It can only be linked to a single computer, unlike other iPods which actually can be loaded with songs from multiple computers.
    At least I feel better, knowing that I wasn't overlooking something that was there.
