Form Layout LOV on mandatory field

Hi,
I have an LOV on a mandatory field in a form layout. When I am entering a new record and click on the LOV icon the LOV page displays but the calling page gives an error of "Value Required". I have noticed that if I manually change the Immediate property of the field to "false" then I do not get the error.
This error does not occur in table layout.
Thanks,
Gavin

Gavin,
Do you have multiple LOV's on the page and/or dependent items?
Is the Value Required message related to the LOV item on which you invoke the LOV window, or is it another item?

Combo LOV firing mandatory field validation

Hello,
I am using Jdev 11.1.1.6.
My VO is entity based. I have 3 fields in this VO as F1, F2, F3
All 3 fields are mandatory.
F1 has model based Combo Lov implemented. List Attribute lookupId from LOV is returned to F1 and List Attribute lookupDesc to F2.
F2 is mandatory and editable. Idea is that default text is returned by lov and then user can update the description.
Scenario 1: <does not work>
At runtime, in create mode, when I try to select a value for this combo lov, it fires mandatory field validation for F2 (only for F2 and not F3) and does not show list of values. I can not make it to show list until enter some data in F2.
<af:inputComboboxListOfValues> has autoSubmit="true" and immediate="false" and F2 has partialTriggers="id of F1"
Scenario 2: <works>
For test purpose, if I make F2 read-only then it works perfectly but F2 is editable and mandatory as well.
<af:inputComboboxListOfValues> has autoSubmit="true" and immediate="false" and F2 has partialTriggers="id of F1"
Scenario 3: <works>
On other pages, I have implemented combo lov where the lov is implemented on reference field and returning the value to only Id column and not to any other field. This scenario works perfectly even with mandatory fields present on page.
<af:inputComboboxListOfValues> has autoSubmit="true" and immediate="false".
Thanks,
Jai

Try to remove partialTrigger from F2 (has partialTriggers="id of F1"),
and attach valueChangeListener on F1, in which you can partially refresh F2 (by code)
Of course, make F1 autoSubmit.

Form validation error with mandatory fields and signature field

Hello,
I have seen that many other users are facing this issue, and they partialy do solve it with some workarounds. However, none of them applies to my case.
I have a dynamic form (can be registration form for example) where user fills in bunch of fields. Some of them are mandatory.
When user signs the form, I get our favourite validation error popups that filed this and this did not validate. (I think that the signature is not valid too once I get these errors).
Workaround would be to set all fileds in the form as optional, however, the presign and postsign events work only in A9 and I need the form to be compatible with ver. 8 too.
I also need to make sure, that they are not set to optional, if the signing fails, user clicks on cancel etc...
Any ideas how to acomplish such a scenario?
Thanks
J.

How to right align a read only numeric field in a panel form layout

Hi, does anyone know how to right align a read only numeric field in a panel form layout? I am using: Style Class = AFFieldNumberMarker, but it only seems to work if the field is disabled. Disabling the field gives it a difference appearance that does not look right on our forms. These are calculated fields, which cannot be modified, so read only is necessary.
I have looked online for some answers, and it seems that others are having similar issues.
I have tried different combinations for the properties, but so far I cannot get it to work.
Thanks

Mandatory fields on the same page with dependent LOVs

Hi,
I am working on an ADF-BC application using JDeveloper 10.1.3.4
I have an ADF Creation form with dependent LOVs and while implementing dependent LOVs we set the autoSubmit property of the selectOneChoiceListBox as true.
If I have some mandatory fields on the same page then because of the autoSubmit property set as true whenever I select a value in the list the page gets submitted and the mandatory fields give an error that the values are required therefore I had to remove the mandatory fields.
I tried using f:subview but even that dint serve the purpose because what I want is something like partialSubmit so that my mandatory fields do no give an error when I select a value in the list.
Can somebody help me on this, how to have a dependent list and mandatory fields on the same page.
P.S: It is very crucial for my application
Thanks,
Raksha

Hello,
This bug has been around since 10.1.3, its even still present in Trinidad and now in 11.
One of the ways to avoid is to make your fields use:
showRequired="true"instead of
required="true"I have not found a decent way to avoid this in general.
My idea was that this shiould be possible with a phaselistener and determine if this is a partial page event instead of a normal submit, but this didnt work.

When we change the non-mandatory field in the form, it doesn't get updated

Hi... I have one question here..
If I have non-mandatory fields in a custom form, and when I query the form and change the value in the non-mandatory field and click on save, then it doesn't save. It says 'No Changes to Save'. But, it's not the same for non-mandatory fields.
Can you please suggest me?
-vrdida

VRdida,
If I understand correctly, you have a non-Required item in your form that has an LOV assigned. While this item is Required=No, it works correctly. When you change the Required property of the item to 'Yes' then it fails. When this occurs, do you get an error message? Are you able to select a value from the LOV?
It sounds like the Required=Yes property might be preventing you f rom opening the LOV. Try setting the Module property: Defer Required Enforcement = Yes. This is the typical setting in an EBS form. This is what allows you to navigate out of a Required field if the value is NULL, but will give you a Required message when you attempt to save the record if the value is still NULL.
Hope this helps,
Craig B-)
If someone's response is helpful or correct, please mark it accordingly.

Mandatory fields error messages in HCM forms and processes

Hi,
This may sound to be a very simple problem but I am unable to get to the root of the issue and thus need an expert advise here.
I have created several forms in the system out of which one is an OM form using SAP_PD service for create position. There are few mandatory fields in the form scenario such as
TITLE
ABBREVIATION
EMPLOYEE GROUP
EMPLOYEE SUBGROUP
As expected, system issues an error message if these field are left out blank but the error message is generic for all the fields and is missing the field name.
Actual Error Message
Complete the required entry field ""
Expected Error Message
Complete the required entry field "Employee Group"
Complete the required entry field "Employee Subgroup"
However, there are couple of fields in the form scenario which issues a correct error message
Complete the required entry field "Object abbreviator" (P1000-SHORT)
I am unable to identify the difference between the couple of fields that issues a correct message and rest 20 other fields which doesn't.
Regards,
Murtuza Kharodawala

No, if I enter all the mandatory fields on the form then there is no problem. It allows me to move ahead and submit the form successfully.
As recommended by Siddharth, I tried debugging the message class and what I observed was it passes the complete_fieldname value as Personnel Subarea (I1008_BTRTL) and system expects it to be I1008-BTRTL.
SAP as a fallback tries to read description from the table T5ASRFSCNFLDT but it has a_form_scenario as blank and complete_fieldname has a concatenated value "Personnel Subarea (I1008_BTRTL)" instead of "I1008-BTRTL".
Not sure what am I missing which causes it to have this wrong error message.

Validate and warn user to fill a mandatory field in a PDF form

Below is a basic example of how you can assit your form users, by reminding them to fill the mandatory fields. This condition can be applied at various events like, printing, submitting, while filling form, etc. In the following example, validation is triggered when the user leaves the form field.
If a user clicks within the field and moves on without filling it, the following warning shows up.
See this help topic to know more about Form Level Validation settings.
See this help topic to other ways of validating user input.

Hi Carmen Alvarez,
You should use the USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMP (module pool SAPLV60A, program RV60AFZZ) to move the value.
Thanks,

How to handle Mandatory field in a FORM

Hi,
Version - Forms Builder (9.0.4.2.0)
I just want to know the best practice to handle mandatory field in a FORM.
Because if we put required property to 'yes' then can we input message there without writing validation in WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM trigger.
In one of form I have; cursor couldn't move without entering that form. (even we set to Required property to No) How do this happen.
rgds
shabar

Hello,
If you want to replace the Forms standard message, you can write an item/block/form level When-Validate-Item, then remove the mandatory property from the item.
If you let the property to YES, you can write a block-level ON-ERROR trigger to change the message:
declare
     lv_errcod NUMBER := ERROR_CODE;
Begin
     if lv_errcod = '40202' Then
          Message('You absotutly HAVE to enter this field');
     else
          Message('err:' || lv_errcod );
     end if ;
end;Francois

<text field name>.fillColor = "120,120,123";
<text field name>.resolveNode"ui.#textEdit").border.edge.fill.color.value="120,150.200";

LOV in 2 field of a form

Hello !
I created 2 text entry fields on a form. Both contains a numeric value of the same LOV (a "from" field and an "to" field). Putting the focus in one of them results the selected value filled into the relevant field in Forms 6i.
Now I want ot migrate the form into 10g, and the value fills ALWAYS the first text entry independently of the focused item.
Please, help, how to solve this....
Thank You in advance,
Zoltán

See the LOV properties "Automatic Select" and "Automatic Skip", a combination of them will make the LOV to automatically use the selected value and the focus will go to the next item (next item in navigation).

PDF Form Mandatory Field Validation Issue in Workspace

If we open a PDF Form with mandatory fields (e.g. Mortgage-Prebuilt sample PDF form) in Workspace and then click the Workspace Complete button without completing the mandatory fields, there will be mandatory validation check which will highlight all the mandatory fields and display the mandatory fields error message dialog box.
However, if we click the Workspace Complete button again afterwards, the mandatory fields error message dialog box will not be displayed. The dialog box will be displayed only if our mouse is moved to any active/enabled fields/buttons in PDF form.
Does anyone encounter this strange issue before?
Kindly advice what should we do to solve this issue.
