Display lookup value for update in a form field

OK, this seems like a simple thing to do, but for some reason I can't seem to figure it out.
I have a table with several foreign keys which are number ids. I've created a form using shared component dynamic LOVs for those fields where the LOV retrieves display values from the foreign key related tables . So far, so good. If I run the form to create a new record, it works fine. But if I call the form from a report with a link column (ala Master-Detail Form) for update purposes, all the data is fetched into the form properly except the foreign key related table LOV display data. The LOV data fetched into the fields is always the first value in the LOV list, and not the value based upon the foreign key values in the record. I want the value displayed to be based upon the foreign key in the record.
What am I doing wrong?

Urgent! Display lookup value and return value at the same time.

We are using pop up lov.
How can we display lookup value and return value at the same time. let me claer..
Our lov query is like fallowing
select dname, deptno from dept
we want to return deptno column into a database bind text item and dname column into a display item (look up)
can we do it (we need to do)
thanks for your help.

We did it .
But pop up key lov (display description return value ) property doesn't appear for tabular forms item.
(Report Attributes pages Tabular Form Element section display As property list)
can we set or not.
Thank you.

VO Attribute displaying lookup meaning for code

Hi experts,
How to make a VO attribute display lookup meaning for the code stored in DB into the query results table?
Regards
Ari

Hi,
Your lookup code is stored in DB table. So. it should be there in your VO query.
Now you want to have its meaning as well in that VO query.. right ?
For this, add another column in VO query like:
(select meaning from fnd_lookup_values where lookup_code = XxEO.code) code_meaning
--Sushant

Display multiple values for a characteristic for Equipment.

Hi is there any way to display multiple values for characteristics of an equipment. Ex. An equipment (Presss) produces multiple ROH Parts. The class VN_TOOl with charactersistic "Part Produced" . When I run IH08 and execute the query, >Show , hide classification I can only get just one part instead of multiple parts. How do I get multiple values for the characteristic

Yes Chandra,
You are not getting it in IH08, but you are getting it in IE07. See this.
IH08
IE07
If you want the report in the ALV layout, then you need to go for a development using FMs in Classification areas such as:
'BAPI_OBJCL_GETCLASSES' 'ALM_ME_CLASS_CHAR_GETDETAIL'

Got multiple values for non null local custom field

Hi,
I get the following error message while saving a MPP from Project Professional to MS Project Server:
Got multiple values for non null local custom field.
I checked the MPP and found that there are fields with same alias as Enterprise field names. However, these fields are at a Task level, whereas the Enterprise fields are at a Project Level.
I would like to know why this is happening and the resolution for this issue. I don't want to delete the local fields.
Any help in this regard will be appreciated.

Then try to find any inconsistencies in the project plans with the issues, like required values not entered. Also try to save the plan as XML format and save it back as an mpp file to see if it helps (be aware that any formatting will be lost).
Hope this helps,

How to get lookup value for a lookup_type and pass as a parameter in OAF

Hi,
I have requirement wherein I have to enable the "Add Attachment" Button only for a particular deliverable name.
Steps I followed
1) I have extended the corresponding Controller class.
2) Sting str1="XYZ";
3) Getting the attachment table bean and the deliverable name thru Data Mappings as Attachment is the built-in funtionality in OAF.
4)Checking if the deliverable name whether it is equal to str1 or not
Case1: If the deliverable name is not equal to str1 then I am placing the insertallowed as BOOLEAN.FALSE
Case2:If not it will be enabled.
5)The functionality as per the requirement is working fine.
6)Here for str1 I have hardcoded the value initially but I need to take up the value from a lookup created for this value because may be in future if for more than one value the "Add Attachment" Button has to enabled they it will be easy to add in the look up only. No need to change the controller class.
7) So please let me know the steps in getting the value from a lookup and have to pass the lookup values (Here str1--"XYZ","ABC","DEF") into the extended Controller Class.
Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
Ramya

Ramya,

No need to change the controller class.For this u need to iterate through the lookup values.

Rogue implicit SELECT FOR UPDATE statement in forms 9i 9.0.4.0.19

all,
out of 200 production forms, one form occasionally and incorrectly "selects for update" an entire 3 million row table, during an update transaction. this creates 100+ archive logs.
we cannot repeat the event via testing. but the rogue select statement has been captured from SGA and is listed below. its plain to see that somehow the where clause is truncated to a W, and is then used as a table alias, resulting in the entire table being locked.
has anyone seen anything like this?
SELECT ROWID,DISTRIBUTION_PARTY,DISTRIBUTION_PARTY_NAME,CORRESPOND_SEQ_NUM,DISTRIBUTION_SEQ_NUM,VENDOR_NUM,DEPENDENT_SEQ_NUM,INTERNAL_ATTORNEY_USER_NAME,MAIL_LOC,ORIGINAL_FLAG
FROM CLAIM_DISTRIBUTION_DATA W
FOR UPDATE OF DISTRIBUTION_PARTY NOWAIT

Find out where this select statement is issued from first of all. Is it in your code or is it issued implicitely by Forms? Since it has rowid I assume it is an implicit Forms call.
Do you use on-update triggers any where in this form? on-lock?

Grouping to display null values for all the missing dates

Hi SAP,
I am trying to display '0.00' value for all the missing dates in my crystal reports as follows:
17-Jan-14     40.00
18-Jan-14       0.00
19-Jan-14       0.00
20-Jan-14     80.00
However, my crystal report is showing as follows:
17-Jan-14     40.00
18-Jan-14       0.00
19-Jan-14
20-Jan-14     80.00
The missing dates with no data are group together and my '0.00' value is not. Kindly advise me the solution. The formula is shown as per attached.
Thank you.
Regards.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Fyi, I am using a formula field in crystal report to display "0.00" for days in between as follows:
whileprintingrecords;
if Days_Between({Command.DocDate},next({Command.DocDate}),'dd-MMM-yy') = "" then "" else "0.00"
There is another formula field in crystal report to display the missing dates in between as follows:
whileprintingrecords;
Days_Between({Command.DocDate},next({Command.DocDate}),'dd-MMM-yy')
Below is my report custom functions:
Function Days_Between (datefield as datetime, nextdatefield as datetime, format as string)
' This function is only used to display what data is missing within a specified date range...output type is text
dim thisdate as date
dim nextdate as date
dim output as string 'output is the text display
dim daysbetween as number
dim looptimes as number
looptimes = 0
daysbetween = 0
output = ""
thisdate = datevalue(datefield) + 1
nextdate = datevalue(nextdatefield)
if nextdate - thisdate > 1 then daysbetween = nextdate - thisdate else daysbetween = 1
do
if nextdate - thisdate > 1 _
then output = output + totext(thisdate, format) + chr(10) _
else _
if nextdate - thisdate > 0 _
then output = output + totext(thisdate, format)
looptimes = looptimes + 1
thisdate = thisdate + 1
loop until looptimes = daysbetween
    Days_Between = output
End Function
The issue arise when when there is more than one missing dates in between but the null values ("0.00") displayed is only for the first missing dates and not for all the missing dates.

Need Help: Dynamically displaying parameter values for a procedure.

Problem Statement: Generic Code should display the parameter values dynamically by taking "package name" and "procedure name" as inputs and the values needs to be obtained from the parameters of the wrapper procedure.
Example:
a) Let us assume that there is an application package called customer.
create or replace package spec customer
as
begin
TYPE cust_in_rec_type IS RECORD
cust_id NUMBER,
,cust_name VARCHAR2(25) );
TYPE cust_role_rec_type IS RECORD
(cust_id NUMBER,
role_type VARCHAR2(20)
TYPE role_tbl_type IS TABLE OF cust_role_rec_type INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
Procedure create_customer
p_code in varchar2
,p_cust_rec cust_in_rec_type
,p_cust_roles role_tbl_type
end;
b) Let us assume that we need to test the create customer procedure in the package.For that various test cases needs to be executed.
c) We have created a testing package as mentioned below.
create or replace package body customer_test
as
begin
-- signature of this wrapper is exactly same as create_customer procedure.
procedure create_customer_wrapper
p_code in varchar2
,p_cust_rec customer.cust_in_rec_type
,p_cust_roles customer.role_tbl_type
as
begin
//<<<<<---Need to display parameter values dynamically for each test case-->>>>>
Since the signature of this wrapper procedure is similar to actual app procedure, we can get all the parameter definition for this procedure using ALL_ARGUMENTS table as mentioned below.
//<<
select * from ALL_ARGUMENTS where package_name = CUSTOMER' and object_name = 'CREATE_CUSTOMER'
but the problem is there are other procedures exists inside customer package like update_customer, add_address so need to have generalized code that is independent of each procedure inside the package.
Is there any way to achieve this.
Any help is appreciated.
// >>>>
create_customer
p_code => p_code
,p_cust_rec => p_cust_rec
,p_cust_roles => p_cust_roles
end;
procedure testcase1
as
l_cust_rec customer.cust_in_rec_type ;
l_cust_roles customer.role_tbl_type;
begin
l_cust_rec.cust_id := 1;
l_cust_rec.cust_name := 'ABC';
l_cust_roles(1).cust_id := 1;
l_cust_roles(1).role_type := 'Role1';
create_customer_wrapper
p_code => 'code1'
,p_cust_rec => l_cust_rec
,p_cust_roles => l_cust_role
end;
procedure testcase2
as
l_cust_rec customer.cust_in_rec_type ;
l_cust_roles customer.role_tbl_type;
begin
l_cust_rec.cust_id := 2;
l_cust_rec.cust_name := 'DEF';
l_cust_roles(1).cust_id := 2;
l_cust_roles(1).role_type := 'Role2';
create_customer_wrapper
p_code => 'code2'
,p_cust_rec => l_cust_rec
,p_cust_roles => l_cust_role
end;
end;

Not possible to dynamically in a procedure, deal with the parameter values passed by a caller. There is no struct or interface that a procedure can use to ask the run-time to give it the value of the 1st or 2nd or n parameter.
There could perhaps be some undocumented/unsupported method - as debugging code (<i>DBMS_DEBUG</i>) is able to dynamically reference a variable (see Get_Value() function). But debugging requires a primary session (the debug session) and the target session (session being debugged).
So easy answer is no - the complex answer is.. well, complex as the basic functionality for this do exists in Oracle in its DBMS_DEBUG feature, but only from a special debug session.
The easiest way would be to generate the wrapper itself, dynamically. This allows your to generate code that displays the parameter values and add whatever other code needed into the wrapper. The following example demonstrates the basics of this approach:
SQL> -- // our application proc called FooProc
SQL> create or replace procedure FooProc( d date, n number, s varchar2 ) is
2 begin
3          -- // do some stuff
4          null;
5 end;

Displaying blank value for the Rounding Value field in MM03 transaction

Hello All,
We are using BDC to create a material master record.Some users are not loading the rouding value in the MRP1 screen. The rounding value is stored in the MARC table which has the data type as QUAN. Thus when there is no value being passed it implicitly converts the blank value to 0.00. The users do not want the rounding value to be displayed as 0 when they view the material record using mm03. Kindly let me know if there is any way to display the rounding value as blank if no value is present.
Thanks in Advance.
