Form Personalization to add menu

Hi all,
We have a requirement on form personalization to add menu option under 'Tools' in Service Request form (Field Service).
The option should be enable only when INCIDENT NUMBER contains any value. Else it should be disable in nature.
Any one has any idea to do the same..
Thanks in advance.

Oracle Forms Personalization - Menu Icon

Hello, hopefully a quick question. Looking at forms personalization and want to add a new menu item. I can achieve this using Forms Personalization no problem. My question is regarding the 'Icon Name' field for the Action Type of Menu. I understand that this is asking for a .ico file to display in the toolbar, however I'm not sure where to place this .ico file on the file system for it to be picked up? Any thoughts?
Thanks

Thanks.
Basically in the Forms Personalization Form for an Action Type of "Menu" there is a parameter called "Icon Name". According to the Forms Personalization documentation (279034.1) the definition for this field is:
"Icon Name: Specify an optional icon name that you want added to the Toolbar to achieve the same functionality as in the special pulldown menu entry"
I tried specifying one of the icons in the directory you mention below: afattach.gif (even tried just afattach) to see if that would render on the Toolbar, but no luck.
Any thoughts on what is required for this field?
Thanks

Call Another Form using Forms Personalization

Hi All,
I have created a Custom form using TEMPLATE.fmb and created functions in Apps and assigned to Responsibility etc and it all works OK.
Now, I need to call this Custom form from another seeded(PO form) Via Tools -> Menu.
using Forms personalization I can get the Menu Entry and Actions to execute the Form successfully from the PO Form.
BUT, I need it to automatically query records in my CUSTOM form based on my current PO_HEADER_ID value on my PO Form.
How can I do it ?
Do I need to modify my Block and add some parameters and then pass a value via Personalization ?
Please help !
Thanks

Form personalization for a read only responsibility for a custom form

Hi,
I have a read only responsibility. My requirement is to make a custom form updatable through this responsibility but wth a condition that only the specific custom form should be updatable and rest all other form accessed through read only responsibility be read only. How can i achieve this using form personalization?
Pls give me detailed steps if possible.
Thanks

I tried override Query Only values through Forms Personalization but it did not work for me. With a bit of determination I might have been able to work around it but no luck on that front.
You can do it this way, although it's a bit cumbersome:
1. Clone every function and menu in the Responsibility
2. In all but your custom function set the Function parameter QUERY_ONLY=YES

Addition of one column in LOV through Form Personalization

Hi
While approving a purchase order when we click on Forward check box the forward to field becomes enabled and it has the LOV containing employee names and employee numbers. I want to add another column in this LOV for employee positions through form personalization.
Can any one guide me how to do this.
Regards

Hello,
To set another LOV, you should change the property of your combobox, named LOV_NAME with Forms perso, but you need some PL SQL code to create a new LOV.
See this example : [http://oracle.ittoolbox.com/groups/technical-functional/oracle-apps-l/custom-lov-using-custompll-883870]
One pre-requisite is that your new LOV should have the same number of rows and the same datatype, so I'm afraid you won't be able to do this just using Forms perso
Kind regards,

Voucher Number with Forms Personalization

I am trying to use forms personalization to accomplish the following:
We've enabled vouchering in Payables and now each invoice, when saved, is assigned a voucher number. (INV_SUM_FOLDER.VOUCHER_NUM_DISPLAY).
When you click the attachments icon, we want to voucher number to auto-populate the
FILE_NAME_DISPLAY field when CATEGORY_DESCRIPTION = Supplier Invoice. We have a trigger in place that takes the FILE_NAME_DISPLAY and adds the location path and .pdf. So if voucher number is 110, the trigger adds I:\Invoices\110.pdf. This file will exist as the invoice will be scanned to this directory and given the name as the voucher number.
We want the FILE_NAME_DISPLAY to = VOUCHER_NUM_DISPLAYED when a specific Category of an attachment is selected.

You should look at writing a d/b trigger or a periodically fired custom code that create an attachment manually.
You will find many instances of this code on the net.
Here is an example to get started

Parameter Values passed in WEBHTML or Forms Personalization Parameters

Hi All,
I'm calling my OA JSP from a core Form via a menu item enabled via Forms Personalization.
The JSP was tested in Jdeveloper called from another jsp that passed it a Project Number and Task Number that it retrieved and displayed.
I would like to pass the same parameters from the Core Form that it is enabled on.
I have set up the parameters on the Parameters section of the personalization using in the format
'projectNumber=':block.item||'&taskNumber='||block_item
When I press the verify button the JSP run successfully, however when I rerun the
form the JSP does not return the data.
Does the form function definition webhtml need the parameters defining as well and
if so what would the format be!
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Guy

Does the form function definition webhtml need the
parameters defining as well and
if so what would the format be!No it doesn't. You can pass in the values from the Form Fields using the below statement in the parameters window.
'param='||${item.<block>.<item>.value}
Please note that you need to close your form (that you've personalized) and re-open for personalization to reflect.
HTH.

PO Summary Form Personalization

Hi Gurus,
We are having a requirement as below.
User Created a Purchase Order with 100 Lines and approved it.Now he wants to change the Promise Date of few Lines.User used the PO Summary form to do it.In the "FInd Purchase Orders Form" User enter the PO Number in Number Field and Line Number in Lines Field as 77 and click on the find button.Its Navigated to Purchase Order Lines Form then clicked on the Open Button in "Purchase Order Lines Form" then the Purchase Order Form opens with all the Lines that are Presented in the PO.But the User Needs only the Particular Line 77 of that PO in order to Modify Promise Date.But its not Navigating to Particular Line Directly why?
Is there any Possibility of doing Form Personalization? If so please suggest me the clear step by step process to attain my requirement.
We are using Oracle Applications R12.1.3.
Are there any profile options to navigate the cursor to particular line?
Its my urgent requirement.Please gurus help me out immediately in solving this requirement.
Thanks In Advance,
RS.

Hello RS,
I don't see a simple way to achieve what you are looking for. Most probably you will have to develop a customization to the form (customize the form itself) or maybe via CUSTOMPLL, but I have no experience with that. Maybe someone else has some ideas on that.
Another option is that people use the form in a different way, using the "Query by Example":
On the find form they enter just the PO number and press on find, then open to open and they will see all the lines in the PO. Then they click into the Lines block, press F11, enter Line number, press CTRL+F11 to execute the search and it will show only this specific line. Maybe not so efficient as you want, but at least faster than scrolling through all the PO lines.
And in R12 there is a web-based version of the PO Summary (OAF page), maybe you should explore that one as well? It's called "Buyer Work Center". Click on tab "Orders" and on that page on (sub)tab "Lines". Then you can add search fields "Order" and "Line Number" (use forms personalizations to have those search fields per default available).
Then search for PO & Line number, press Go. Then above the search results table you can select from the LOV the entry "Update Line" and press Go and it will navigate immediately to the specific Line and you can update the quantity or date.
kind regards,
David.

PO Form Personalization affecting for False condition.

Hello All,
I have done with PO(Enter PO) form personalization to disable the Cancel functionality from tools Menu for 'Goods' Line Type.
The condition am using for personalization is (:PO_LINES.LINE_TYPE= 'Goods') AND (:PO_HEADERS.DOC_TYPE_NAME = 'Standard Purchase Order')
For True status showing one Error message " You Cant Cancel PO"
Personalization is working fine for True Condition but for False condition the normal process has to happen means other than 'Goods' Line Type, User should able to Cancel PO.
But whenever am trying to Cancel Po other than Goods line Type its not working, Cancel PO form is not opening at all.
For this personalization I have followed the (Doc ID 1316584.1) Metalink document. I Also tried personalization with Trigger Special13 still same problem persisted.
If anyone knows Please help.
Thanks
Ravi Raj.

Forms personalization - passing a parameter to a concurrent request

I am using forms personalization to give the user the ability to submit a concurrent request from the 'Actions' menu of the form. I would like to be able to pass a field from the form to a parameter of the concurrent request. I know how to set a global variable using forms personalization. Does anyone know how I could use this variable as the default value for the parameter in the concurrent request? (e.g. The concurrent program uses PO number as a parameter - I'd like to be able to pass the PO number from the form to the concurrent request.)

Form Personalization: Calling custom form

Hi Folks,
I need to call a custom form from a seeded form using "Tools" menu and also need to pass parameter.
Here I was able to achieve this using "SPECIAL 1" from personalization, but the problem here is I was not able to pass parameter from seeded form to my custom form. version of EBS is R12
Would be vey greatful if someone could help me on same.
Thanks,
gvk
Edited by: gvk on Mar 13, 2011 11:53 PM

You can pass the parameter only if the called form accepts a parameter.
If it does, you define a global variable and use it on the called form.
The following link gives a great example of passing vendor_id.
