Fill several fields based on selection in (some kind of) LOV

In an application for registration of visitors I have to realize following functionality:
- in the screen for insert of visits select an employee who will receive the visit from a (some kimnd of) List of Values
- not only his name must then be filled in, but also the values for his email adress, phone number and room number out of the lookup table must be placed in the insert form. (it is denormalized, because the inserting user must be able to deviate from this.)
The LOV's that Portal provides only make it possible to return only **one** value.
Does anyone have an example how to realize something like this?

Automatically fill input fields based on selection from dynamic drop down

Hi All,
I tried to search before posting, but i cannot find appropriate thread (maybe wrong keyword).
My scenario:
1. In my offline interactive form, I have:
    a. Material Number --> drop down field with "Allow Custom Text Entry" ticked
    b. 1 execution button to call web service
    c. Material Group - Input Field (Read Only)
2. User will enter material number with wild card character (eg: ABC*).
    User will then click the execution button.
    Web Service in result will return all materials that match the entered material number.
    Dynamic binding will do the magic to generate the drop down list.
3. Beside material number, web service will also return material description and material group.
    Below is the illustration:
     Material        Description       Material Group
     ABC              Material ABC           GRP01
     ABCDE        Material ABCDE          GRP02
--- so far so good ---
My requirement:
Every time user select material from the drop down list, i want to auto-populate field "Material Group" (which value is also returned by web service).
I know i need to put the script on event change of the drop down field.
But i don't know how to read internal table returned by web service.
Hope someone can enlighten me.
Thanks in Advance !!!

How Do I: Fill a read-only field based on selections from 2 DDlists?

Follow-up from issue:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2417876#2417876
I have 2 drop-down lists... "Department" and "SubDepartment"
The selection in DDlist "Department" spawns a unique list in DDlist "SubDepartment"
I select the proper items from both DDlists.
When I do this, I want read-only text field "NameOnIDBadge" to be populated with a pre-defined entry.
Example:
In "Department" DDlist, select item "Finance & Administration"
In "SubDepartment" DDlist, select item "Food Service" from the list that appears
THEN:
In read-only text field "NameOnIDBadge" the following predefined read-only text appears: "Contract Food Serv."
(Thanks to Paul, I already know how to make the selection in DDlist "Department" affect the selection list in DDlist "SubDepartment"
but I don't know how to make the selection of both DDlists create a new pre-defined entry in a text field.)
I have attached a mockup of the file I am working with...

I tried that but a few things went wrong.
1. After I select "Food Service" in the second "SubDepartment" DDlist, a Javascript error message pops up (see attached), and I have to click it to make it go away. Then the text "Contract Food Serv" appears in the text box.
2. If I select a different value in the Department DDlist, the rawtext still remains in place... it should clear out.
3. The raw text seems to be based on the selection of the SubDepartment DDlist only. However, I need specific raw text to be generated based on the combination of BOTH DDlists.   (It could happen that a totally different Department DDlist could have the same item in its corresponding SubDepartment DDlist. In that case, the rawtext would be completely different.)
Correct example:
Department DDlist = Finance & Administration
SubDepartment DDlist = Food Service
NameOnIDBadge = Contract Food Serv <-- CORRECT
Incorrect example:
Department DDlist = Clinical Services
SubDepartment DDlist = Food Service
NameOnIDBadge = Contract Food Serv   <-- INCORRECT   (it might be something else)

Populate field based on selection from another field?

I'm using a Data Connection with a SQL query that returns two fields (StNameFull and ADDRKEY). I have a drop-down list called "Address" with the list items dynamically bound to StNameFull, so the user can select the address.
What I'm trying to do is populate the second field "Key" with the corresponding record, based on the selection made from the drop-down list.
Is it possible to script this so that when the Address is selected the Key will automatically fill in with the key that matches the address selcted?
I currently have "Key" as a text field bound to ADDRKEY, but not sure how to have it check what was selected in "Address"
Thanks so much,
- Kevin

Yes it is possible but you will have to write some script to do it. You wil also have to ge the DataConenction to execute a SQL statement. There is a good blog on this topic at this location:

How to store the AccountID of a user in a field based on selection of name in a different dropdown

When our form is first loaded we store the current users name in the "username" field.
I have a “VPApprover” drop down field which is doing a look-up to a secondary list where we have two columns, Approver Name and Department. The Name column is a person column and I currently have the “username” displayed in the view
When a user is creating a new request they need to select a VP Approver
What I want to do is when the user selects an Approver, store the Approvers “username” aka "AccountID" from the secondary list in the vpusername field on the form. Then on future editing of the form, I’ll compare the “username” field to the
“vpusername” field and if they are the same display an “Approve/Deny” drop-down.
I've tried selecting different Fields from the Approver secondary list, but can't seem to get the field on the form to update correctly based on the drop-down selection. I have a rule set on the Drop-down field to set the vpusername field.. The Condition
is currently “If vpApprov is not blank” ..
When I get to the Value part, I can't figure out how to "grab" the AccountID of the VP Approver selected and store it in the field on the form. The fields I see in the secondary list under person are "DisplayName", "AccountID",
and "AccountType".
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!!

Hi,
From your description, my understanding is that you want to store account id to a filed based on a lookup column.
You could accomplish your requirement with Workflow, you could create your workflow with these steps below:
Create a local variables.
Use Set Workflow Variable action to set value to the variable.
Use Set Field in Current Item action to set value to the column(Please refer to the screenshot below).
And the screenshot below is the list15 and result in my environment.

Automatically fill in field based on data from table rows

hello,
Users in our organization currently have to complete a number of different forms when an accident occurs. I am creating a .pdf that combines these fomrs into one, with the first portion being a data input section where the user inputs the data and then this populates other sections (pages of the form) that can later be saved and printed.
The data input section contains subforms with tables. The tables have a row that has "add new item" and "delete this item" buttons. The rows have dropdown list fields.
I would like to create a field that will be automatically filled in with the values from the dropdown lists, including the values from the new rows that are added using the 'add new item' button.
Any assistance in this regard would be most appreciated. This is my first time on a forum, so I apologize if I have not been clear.
Thank you.

This is pretty complicated. You'll have to use scripting for this and I'll tell you how I'd approach this with JavaScript.
First of all you need to decide at what point you want to populate this field with the drop down selections. I think you have two options.
Option 1 - Automatically calculate this field each time a user makes a drop-down selection. It's possible that a user will enter data and then change a drop down value so you'll have to account for this.
Option 2 - Create an update button that users click to calculate this field. There is still a risk that users will change the value in the drop down after clicking update, so you would want to use scripting to lock those fields (e.g. make them protected) when the update button is clicked. You could then change the caption of this same button or have a second button that when clicked would unlock those drop down fields.
The other thing you need to do is figure out how to calculate this field. It seems to me you would probably build a string together that mixes text with the drop-down values. So your JavaScript would look something like this:
calculatedField.rawValue = "The accident occurred on " + table.row1.date.rawValue + ". It was witnessed by " + table.row1.witness1.rawValue +
" and " + table.row1.witness2.rawValue + ".";
When you're in the LC Designer JavaScript editor, hold control for the relative path to those fields and control + shift for the absolute path and then click on the fields whose values you want to access.
I hope this points you in the right direction!

Thank you
best regadrs
Trupthi

Hi,
Change in standard field is not the best practice.
You can write program in adhoc query
instead of changing logic in that , create a new field and write a small code and fetch data from Ztable which u r planing.
steps to create that are given below.
Go to Sq02 - enter your infoset and click on change
Select additional fields of particular infotype where you want to create additional field
Select extras button in the menu and click on create
Select the option and Enter the name of the field, Select Additional field and click on Continue
Enter the data required data.Click on Continue.
New field created .
Select the field and click on code button
enter code and generate program.

Rajeev,
Can you try printing the below value to check whether it's returning the expected value. let me know if its returning the screen value.
contextVal = selectedSiteUseDetailDFF1.getText(paramOAPageContext);
lobVal = selectedSiteUseDetailDFF2.getText(paramOAPageContext);
atmVal = selectedSiteUseDetailDFF3.getText(paramOAPageContext);

Setting the value of a field based on a dropdown list

I am using the latest production release of JHeadstart 10.1.3.0.91. I am trying to set the value of a field based on selecting the value of another field (drop down list). The drop down list field has the following attributes set autoSubmit="true" immediate="true" valueChangeListener="#{jhsPageLifecycle.updateModelValue}".
The other field has the partialtrigger set to the first field. ie "depends on" selection from JHeadStart file. The value of the second field is set in the setter of the VO RowImpl java file.
The value of that field is only populated on the screen if it is set to disabled="true". This seems a bit bizzare behaviour. Can you explain why it cannot set the value of the field when it is not disabled.

Worked out that if i set the "Clear/Refresh value" attribute on the field that i want updated then it will work ok

Auto populate fields based on dropdown selection

New to forms and needing some insight
Is there a way to auto populate a series of fields based on the selection of a dropdown box
for instance;
chosing a customer's name from a dropdown box would auto populate the address, city,state zip etc...

Yes, but not easy and you do not want to have a large number of items.
