DFF in iSupplier

We have an issue with personalization of iSupplier pages. DFF is enabled for supplier code in core purchasing(Suppliers form). Purchasing dept has been entering this data manually till date. But, after the implementation of isupplier portal, the purchasing dept wants the supplier to fill in the code using supplier profile manager responsibiity.
I have tried to look for the DFF in iSupplier Portal so I could personalize the business classifications page and display the DFF field. The issue is that the DFF is not available for personalization in any of the iSupplier portal pages.
Can anyone in this forum please suggest any solution.
Thanks.

Swetha,
Are you sure that you are looking at the correct page or whether the page has a DFF or not? Also go through the page controller to see if it is getting added at runtime.

Any setup in isupplier for showing the DFF in purchase order?

Hi all,
i have one question, please reply me.
In purchase orders, i am creating a purchase order. In the Purchase order at line level i am enabling a DFF(PO Lines) and i am giving a value for attribute1 and i am approving it. So that purchase order will be sent to Supplier.
In iSupplier portal(Self service appln -OA Framework pages), i am entering and seeing that purchase order that i have created and approved in PO module. That purchase order is visible and i can only see the purchase order details and i cann't see the DFF that i have enabled in PO module.
My question is that hence the DFF(attribute1) is storing in that purchase order line level, i could have see that also in the iSupplier portal screen isn't it? Even Oracle would have taken care of this know, if i am attaching a DFF along with the purchase order, it is related with that purchase order and whereever i query for that purchase order it needs to show everything that are related with the purchase order know?
Whether is this possible for this? I am working in 11iRUP5 instance, is there any setup needs to be done as such it will show the DFF also in iSupplier portal screen?
Thank you,
Rajarajan

It looks more of a functional/setup issue. You will get a better response on product related forum or lets wait on Tapash's reply, he is well familiar with this module.

ISupplier Portal: Enabling PO lines DFF

I enabled PO line DFF using personalization. I can now see Global Data Elements and can select few of the global data elements using pipe seperator eg. Global Data Elements|ATTN|ROOM|DEPT.
But we have context DFF which reders value based on Requisition Type. How can we include context sensitive DFF's using personalization?

Cancelled POs not appearing in isupplier PO Print Report

Hi All,
I am using oracle apps 11.5.10 version.My problem is that PO print report is not printing all the cancelled Purchase Orders.Its printing only the last Purchase Order which is cancelled.
Steps to reproduce-
1. create a multi line req in iproc..submit and on approval PO gets created.
2.from isupplier run Printed PO report.You will see all the lines.
3. Cancel 1st line in iproc-let it revision.run report from isupplier.You'll see all the lines along with one line that is cancelled.
4.Cancel 2nd lines in iproc.let it revision.run report from isupplier.You will see all the lines and the new cancelled line as well.But the Cancelled line1 will not be seen.
5.Again cancel 3rd line.When you print PO in isupplier.You will see all lines+3rd cancelled line.But the above two cancelled Lines 1 and 2 will b missing.
Note- we have modifed the xslfo and po_lines_xml for some other changes.I have reverted the changes made in po_lines_xml but still facing the same issue.
Please help.

Hi,
Please check in transaction SXMB_MONI can found related information why it not transfer to SRM.
Also check the purchasing data of the PO.

Unable to default DFF segment based on selection of other field value.

Hi Gurus,
*I have a requirement on 'Create Work Request' page (Oracle EAM), where during creating complaint, when user selects Asset Number, based on this selection, a DFF enabled to capture Tenant Info must be populated. [For testing now, I'm writing my code in PR and not in PFR to populate some thing while page loads.]*
I have extended my CO and tried many ways (from simple to little complex) but to no success.
Simpler way:
*=======*
OAApplicationModule am = oapagecontext.getApplicationModule(oawebbean);
OAViewObject vo = (OAViewObject)am.findViewObject("RequestDetailsVO");
Row row = vo.first();
row.setAttribute("Attribute1","Attribute1"); //Attribute1 is the View attribute in above VO. But this doesn't work.
row.setAttribute("DepartmentCode","CRC MAINT"); //DepartmentCode is a view attribute as well. And this works.
This code doesn't work.
Understanding that, DFF segments can't be set as simple bean, I have done below:
*===================================================*
OADescriptiveFlexBean oadescriptiveflexbean = (OADescriptiveFlexBean)oawebbean.findIndexedChildRecursive("WorkRequestDesc");//("WorkRequestDFF_p13n");
oadescriptiveflexbean.processFlex(oapagecontext);
if (oadescriptiveflexbean != null){
ContextMap contextmap = oadescriptiveflexbean.getNamedChildMap();
if(contextmap != null){
Enumeration enumeration = contextmap.keys(oapagecontext.getRenderingContext());
if(enumeration != null){
do
if(!enumeration.hasMoreElements())
break;
Object obj = enumeration.nextElement();
OAWebBean oawebbean1 = (OAWebBean)contextmap.get(oapagecontext.getRenderingContext(), obj);
oapagecontext.getParameter("WorkRequestDesc1")
//String str = (String)oapagecontext.getNamedDataObject("WorkRequestDesc1")
if(oawebbean1 != null)
if(oawebbean1 instanceof OAMessageTextInputBean)
OAMessageTextInputBean oamessagetextinputbean = (OAMessageTextInputBean)oawebbean1;//.findIndexedChildRecursive("WorkRequestDesc1__xc_");
//oamessagetextinputbean.setReadOnly(true);
oamessagetextinputbean.setText("Jawad");
} while(true);
Now the issue with above code is, during the page load, all the segments are populated with value 'Jawad'. I want to populate only the first segment.
More info:
*======*
VO: RequestDetailsVO
DFF Regions ID: WorkRequestDesc
Attribute1 (DFF segment1) ID: WorkRequestDesc1
Appreciate your responses,
Jawad

Dear Guys,
I found out a workaround for this case (If this helps others): :)
*1. Create a Message Text Input type field (representing each DFF segment) and map them to View Attribute (over which DFF was created) and VO instance.*
*2. In the extended CO, in PFR, get the handle of these created fields.*
*3. Set the values as required.*
Since these fields are mapped onto the same view attributes as DFF was, the data goes in fine.
But I still am hunting for the possibility of setting a single segment.
Thanks and Regards,
Jawad

Values not getting saved in DFF in iSupport

Hi,
I have enabled DFF in iSupport, which is visible to users. Users are able to enter values in the fields, but after SR is created, the values are not visible in SR update screen in iSupport nor in SR form in customer support.
Does anybody know what could be wrong?

Mohammed

Default Value in a DFF is not getting populated in Self Service Page

I had an issue in Self Service Page.
In the SS page there is hidden mandatory field in DFF segment,which should get populated with a default select statement.
But this field is not getting populated with the default values.
But this is working fine in Forms , i.e the default value is populated in forms.
Why the default value is not populated in Self Service Pages?
For Eg: If there is a DFF "SAMPLE_DFF" which has some context with segment
Context Code : GB_CODE
Segment : "Enter the Group"
and this segment is made required and defaulted with a select stmt (select stmt returns 'XXXXX')
In forms if am not entering any value, then its defaulted to 'XXXXX'.
But in Self Service this is not happening.
Can anybody help me out...

Actually, I have narrowed down the problem. It is not quite the same.
DFF is Receivables, Address Information (Release 12). We have 2 attributes defined and we want the default value of the 2nd to be dependent on what the user selects in the 1st.
So the default value of the 2nd is defined as a SQL Statement, select :$FLEX$.INDUSTRY_CODE from dual (where INDUSTRY_CODE is the value set name from the 1st).
We know the syntax is correct because if we actually hardcode a default value in the 1st attribute (select 'BLAH' from dual), then we do see that the default value for the 2nd attribute fills in with BLAH as well. However, we do not want that. We want the user to choose a value for the 1st attribute from the LOV, and then have the 2nd attribute default to that same value. This is the part that does not seem to work in OAF, but definitely used to work in Forms.
Any thoughts?
Thanks much!

How To-set DFF to null and Not required in OAF page ??

enabled service dff, added 2 segments. i want them displayed in service request oaf pages.
details of dff-
Application=Service , title = Additional Information for Agents
in context field region : unchecked required and displayed
In global data elements - added 2 segments based on value set(validation type = independent, list type = poplist)
displayed and enabled checkbox are checked for both the segments.
I want to be able to do two things
1.in HTML service request agentdashboard- the 2 new dffs are displayed correctly as drop down lists. I can pick and save a value to those mapped columns.
but the two drop downs are REQUIRED. I do not want them to be. how can I make them un-required.
--while personalizing this flexfield elemnt from oaf page - I did not have the attribute-required to be unset.
2. I want a default blank value in both the drop down list.
I tried to add a nullvalue in valueset ,but its not letting me. can i do that ??
any pointers please.
Thanks in advance

For your question
>
if I want to show one segment based on value of some other bean in the UI, then can I do it ? and how ?
>
If you do not want to extend controller then you need to use javascript. Sample code below
<SCRIPT>if (document.getElementById("QFEQHR_FV").value =='Class Room')
{document.getElementById("DescFlex2").style.visibility = "visible";}
else{document.getElementById("DescFlex2").style.visibility = "hidden";} </SCRIPT>Here "QFEQHR_FV" is any bean ID in your page and "DescFlex" is DFF flex item ID. To get handle of the required DFF attribute change numbers starting from '0' and test.
Sample code for testing
<SCRIPT>alert(document.getElementById("DescFlex0").value);</SCRIPT>You need to add this code to "Text" property of a "Raw Text" item.

AP Payment Batch & DFF data Questions

Hi,
I have few issues faced by one of our clients.
1- After a payment batch is selected and build, In ‘Actions’ the ‘Print Preliminary Register’ and ‘Confirm Payment Batch’ is enabled and processed by clicking ‘OK’.
But due to some error the program was terminated . But output file with ‘0’ bytes is still created.
How to avoid creating a '0' bytes output file whenever error occurs..?
2- . DFF customized to capture ‘Message to Beneficiary ‘ in the payment batch window DFF. This DFF can capture 140 alpha numeric characters. But in output this seems to be truncated and not showing full values.
Would it be because of the font size..? How to extend the data format of this field and what is the maximum we can set..?
3- If the Remittance amount havng more decimal point like 555.555 gets truncated to 555.55 in the out file send to bank.
Why truncated , can we set the rounding option to up/down..?where is it set..?
Can anybody throw some light..?
Thanks,
Jayasree

In processFormRequest update a DFF value on the page

    I am currenly working with the customer standard application with the 'new customer page' (ArCreCusPG) and I have extended the main controller for the page (ArCreCusCO) so that I may update a field on the screen based off a user's input elsewhere on the screen and i'm trying to do so in the process form request. So in the extended controller's PFR I am wanting to update the Attribute1 column of the DFF 'AcctSiteFlex' from a 'R' to a 'C' (which on the page is rendered as AcctSiteFlex0). i can see that I am able to update the value in the pageContext but i'm not able to make it so that the change is pushed back out to the screen and overwrite the R with a C.
In my controller's PFR I am trying:
    super.processFormRequest(pageContext, webBean);
    OADescriptiveFlexBean dfb = (OADescriptiveFlexBean)pgbean.findChildRecursive("AcctSiteFlex"); //get the DFF bean
    OAWebBean dffbean = (OAWebBean)dfb.findChildRecursive("AcctSiteFlex0"); //get the field that applies to the attribute1 column that is being rendered
    OAMessageLovInputBean lovbean = (OAMessageLovInputBean)dffbean; //convert the webean to its correct type of MessageLovInput
    lovbean.setValue(pageContext,"C"); //set the value from what was an R to a C
    System.out.println(lovbean.getValue(pageContext)); //it is now set to C
HOWEVER the screen is still displaying an R instead of C. I have tried before the super with same results.
i can access the field directly with and same results apply:
    OAMessageLovInputBean lovbean = (OAMessageLovInputBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("AcctSiteFlex0");
    lovbean.setValue(pageContext,"C");
I have also tried going to the VO, grabbing the row and using the following and the same issue applies. Value appears to be set but isn't being painted onto the screen
    setAttribute("Attribute1","C");

  I have the super call first (i've also tried the super last just to test but end up with the same result) and i have tried the SetText instead of SetValue. I immediately follow the set calls with a getValue or getText and i see the value I used in the set command (which is the good thing). Also, when I go into the VO for the DFF i see the values i changed using the setValue/Text. I have even gone into the row and executed a setAttribute to try to ensure that the change will display on the screen.
  How do i get the screen to refresh with the correct value that is in the VO? Normally the set commands in the processformrequest would take care of this. Any suggestions?

Suppliers Open Interface Tables- DFF Value on Contacts

Hi all... I am creating an R12 Interface using the 3 Supplier open interface tables
AP_SUPPLIERS_INT
AP_SUPPLIER_SITES_INT
AP_SUP_SITE_CONTACT_INT
Here's the thing... I need to pass a legacy id value to the Contacts in order to do updates. I was hoping to use the attribute1 field. The problem is, the site contact interface table doesn't have any attribute columns!
Is there a way around this? Does anyone know why this table is missing columns?
Thanks

If just DFF Attribute column try direct update of attribute column.
Otherwise perhaps the APIs have them?

Gareth

Perform custom validation on invoices created via iSupplier portal in R12

Hello,
It seems that since R12, invoices created on iSupplier portal are no longer loaded via Payables open interface tables (while ASBN's still are). It is nice that they are loaded immediately but now we do not have any way to perform custom validation that we normally do via AP_INTERFACE_WORKFLOW_PKG.do_custom_validation procedure.
Is there any way to modify how iSupplier portal inserts Invoice data into AP tables? In particular we would like to choose specific document category for certain suppliers.
Many thanks in advance,
Kamil

Loof -i output showing webcache on prod EBS iSupplier (but not in dev/test)

Hi,
I inherited an Linux EBS install (12.0.6) with iSupplier on an external web server. The web server is front-ended by a reverse proxy. Using lsof -i to look at the ports I noticed a difference between my Test and Production environments.
In production the lsof output contains a number of the following entries:
httpd 7062 applp25 18u IPv4 521062911 TCP *:webcache (LISTEN)
httpd 7062 applp25 32u IPv4 546736321 TCP pwk-sv-wb10.foo.bar :webcache->pwk-ap-ap3.foo.bar:11940 (ESTABLISHED)
applp25 is the applmgr account and pwk-ap-ap3 is the reverse proxy.
In my test environment I do Not see anything related to webcache and when I do see communication back to the proxy it’s always been on the Web port
e.g.
httpd 13149 applt25 32u IPv4 547891775 TCP pwk-sv-wbt10.foo.bar:8040->pwk-ap-ap3.foo.bar:11963 (ESTABLISHED)
I don’t do anything different starting/stopping processes in Prod, Test or Dev e.g. adstrtal.sh.
While I understand that Oracle has Web caching technologies I don’t have any experience with them and am not quite sure when to begin looking. Obviously I plan on comparing the context files, etc., just hoping for some suggestions on where else to look and references I should look at.
Thanks in Advance
ken

Solved....for some reason /etc/services as distributed in Redhat (others ?) has port 8080 associated with webcache
