Generate charts based on user input

Hello!
My goal is to create an application in which a user would enter information (specifically in the form of numbers and financials). The final output would create a page / document that shows summary of the data and also manipulates the data into bar and pie charts. (We are trying to create side by side comparison charts based on user input.)
I have a subscription to the Creative Cloud, so I have access to a large % of Adobe products. Do you have any suggestions on what application I should use for this project? The final output could be PDF or Web based.
Thank you!
Bethany

Hi Bethany,
You may check out Adobe FormsCentral at https://www.acrobat.com/formscentral/en/home.html and see if that's what you need. You can create forms using Adobe FormsCentral to collect user input and user responses will be displayed in charts.
Thanks,
Wenlan

How to hide/display chart based on User input parameter

hi,
I have a chart in WEBI report. This report prompts the end user with values {Yes, No}.
If user selects value 'Yes', Chart should be displayed
If user selects value 'No', Chart should be hidden.
Please let me know how to achieve this....
Thanks,
Vamsee

You can use a combination of steps. First, create a filter for the chart block based on your input prompt value. If the user says "No" then the chart should be empty due to the filter. Next, there is a checkbox that tells Web Intelligence whether to show an empty block or not. It is on by default, you can turn it off.
I detail a solution with similar results on my blog where only one of two charts is displayed using a similar technique. It might help you understand more of the concepts.

how to add column dynamically based on from_date to to_date?

You cannot add columns dynamically. But you can define a maximum number of numbers and then hide unused columns in your form useing SET_ITEM_PROPERTY(..,VISIBLE, PROPERTY_FALSE);

How to configure the schema name dynamically based on user input.

configure the schema name dynamically based on user input.
For ex:
We have two schemas:
Schema1 - base schema having 15 tables.
Schema2 - tables which is specific to modules. Having only 10 tables which is also available in Schema1
Login to application using Schema 1
Access a particlular module and select the country. Here country selection is identified.
Based on the country selection, we need to connect the schema respectively.
If the user selects France --> It should connect Schema1
If the user selects Germeny --> It should connect schema2.
Used: Eclipselink

You may want to have a different persistence unit for each country, then you just need to switch persistence units, and can put the schema in your orm.xml file.
You may also want to investigate EclipseLink multi-tenant support,
http://www.eclipse.org/eclipselink/documentation/2.5/jpa/extensions/a_multitenant.htm
You can the schema in a persistence unit in code using a SessionCustomizer and the tableQualifier.

Redirect to different pages based on user input value

Hello,
Anyone please help.
I am trying to redirect to different pages based on user inputs. I have a form in which I have one text item and a submit button. For example consider text item to be empno; So once the user enters a empno and hits submit button; I need to redirect to different pages based on this job.
For Ex: if user inputs empno whose job is 'ANALYST' then redirect to page 1
if user inputs empno whose job is 'MANAGER' then redirect to page 10
For this scenario. i wrote a pl/sql process for the submit button; but no luck -- its not at all redirecting instead its in the same page. Below is the process.
declare
v_job varchar2(20);
begin
select job into v_job from emp where empno = :P9_EMPNO_R;
if v_job = 'ANALYST' then
OWA_UTIL.REDIRECT_URL('f?p=&APP_ID.:1:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.::', TRUE);
end if;
if v_job = 'MANAGER' then
OWA_UTIL.REDIRECT_URL('f?p=&APP_ID.:10:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.::', TRUE);
end if;
end;Please help. I am using Oracle APEX version 4.2 and database Oracle 11g R2

Thanks,
OrtonI have a similar scenario in my application and this is how I handle it.
1. Create a page item on the page, say Px_PAGE_NUM
2. Create a "On Submit - After Computations and Validations" page process to set the above page item. In your case, you can use the same logic that you have already in place (except the call to OWA_UTIL.REDIRECT_URL) :
declare
v_job varchar2(20);
begin
select job into v_job from emp where empno = :P9_EMPNO_R;
if v_job = 'ANALYST' then
:Px_PAGE_NUM := '1';
end if;
if v_job = 'MANAGER' then
:Px_PAGE_NUM := '10';
end if;
end;3. Create a "On Submit: After processing" branch. Specify the "Target Type" as "Page in the application" and "Page Number" as &Px_PAGE_NUM. (with the dot).
I hope the above helps.
BTW, the following thread in the forum related to OWA_UTIL.REDIRECT_URL might help:
issue OWA_UTIL.REDIRECT_URL with APEX 4.1.1

Lots of different ways to do this, I blogged about one way (using a Pipelined function) here -
http://jes.blogs.shellprompt.net/2006/05/25/generic-charting-in-application-express/
Other options include using a PL/SQL function returning the string to use as the dynamic query etc.

Drawing a line of asterisks based on user input - where do I start?

Greetings,
I'm trying to write an application that will ask the user for a number then the program will output that number in a line of asterisks based on user input - where do I start?
I really appreciate any informaiton.

import javax.swing.*;
public class numbers {
     public static void main ( String args[])
          String strNumber;
          int number = 0;
          strNumber = "";
     for (int num1 = 0; num1<=5; num1++)
               strNumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog ("How many Asterisks do you want printed?");
               number = Integer.parseInt(strNumber);
          for(int num=0; num<number; num++) System.out.print("*");
               System.out.println("");
          System.exit(0);
                    }This compiles fine, but it just keep rewriting the same thing... Any suggestions would be greatl appreciated. Also, how would I be able to confine the number entered to under 30?

Displaying columns based on User Input

Hi,
I have a following requirement :
I have four columns in a report : Performance Indicator ,Target (XTD) , Actual (XTD),Indicator(Traffic Lights)
Based on the prompt, which contains column named as "Review Frequency" having values as 1. Monthly 2. Quaterly 3. Yearly.
When User select "Monthly" in pormpt I want to see MTD in Actual and Target column and Indicator depending on these columns.
When User select "Quaterly" in pormpt I want to see QTD in Actual and Target column and Indicator depending on these columns.
Can anybody tell me how can we achieve this?
I think I can achieve this with guided navigation but for that I have to create 3 reports.
Can anybody have any better idea to create just one report and based on user input I can show/hide columns in a single report?
This is mainly related to Balanced ScoreCard.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Vikas

you have seperate columns for monthly, quarterly, and yearly, right?
In the prompt, save the "Review Frequency" as a Presentation Variable "abc";
In the request, you add actual (MTD) column, edit the formula, use something like:
CASE
WHEN @{abc}='Monthly' THEN "- SalesFacts"."actual (MTD)"
WHEN @{abc}='Quarterly' THEN "- SalesFacts"."actual (QTD)"
ELSE "- SalesFacts"."actual (YTD)"
END
then do the same thing for target column.

Query Based On User Input

Hello,
Is there a way that I can get Discoverer to run different queries based on user input? In other words, I have two parameters "A" and "B". If the user enters a value for "A", execute QUERY1. If the user enters a value for "B", execute QUERY2. If both parameters are left blank, execute QUERY3. If the user enters values for "A" and "B", execute QUERY4.
I'm fairly new to Discoverer so any help that I can receive on this matter will be greatly appreciated.
Thank You

Excel Macro to Delete rows based on user input

I need help creating a macro that will delete rows in a spreadsheet based on user input. Have little to no experience writing macros.
Rows are distinguished based on codes in column B, so if the user types "6657", the row with code 6657 should be deleted. Any help would be much appreciated

Hi,
Please try the macro:
Sub Sample()
Dim Ret As Long
Ret = Application.InputBox(Prompt:="Please enter a row number", Type:=1)
If Ret = False Then Exit Sub
With ActiveSheet
.Rows(Ret).Delete Shift:=xlUp
End With
End Sub

Displaying alert message based on user input on input param screen

Hi,
Based on user input I wish to display an alert popup on my report. I
have provided the user 2 dropdowns called sortasc and sortdesc with all
the column names used in the report to simulate dynamic sorting.This is
because we do not have dynamic sorting in CR XI R2. When the user
selects same column name in both sortasc and sortdesc then the sort
type which has priority in the record sort expert is executed. This is fine but we want an alert
or message popup displayed so as to prevent user from selecting same
column names.
I tried adding an alert with the following code:
if {?sortasc} = {?sortdesc} then true else false
So far I have not been prompted with any alert message box.
Let me know if there is any other option.

Hi Shalu,
I have created a alert and it is working fine, please follow the steps
Create a new Alert using two static parameters and give the condition for message like :
if {?Myworld} = {?Myworld1} Then
'You have entered a correct word'
else
'This is not a correct word'
Then create a condition like :
{?Myworld} = {?Myworld1} or {?Myworld} <> {?Myworld1}
Also check the check box Enabled and save the alert. Now it will popup if the myworld is equal to myworld1 or myworld is not equal to myworld1.
Hope this will help you
Thanks,
Sastry

Derive values based upon user input

Hello,
I recieved a request for a report.
When a user runs the report they are to be prompted for a fiscal year/period.
Based on the fiscal year/period that the user provides I have the following columns (in bold below are 2 examples that may make the description more clear).
1. Revenue for the Fiscal year Prior to the fiscal year of the user input value
2. Revenue for the Fiscal year/Period prior to the input Fiscal year/period
3. Revenue for the Year to date accumulation up to the prior fiscal year/period that the user input
4. Revenue for the Year to date accumulation up to the prior fiscal year (fiscal year rolls back first) and prior period (for period 01, it then rolls back the fiscal year 1 more year) that the user input
Example 1: If the user ran the query and they provided the value 05/2007, then the values that need to be obtained would be:
1. Revenue for 2006
2. Revenue for 04/2007
3. Revenue for 01/2007 to 04/2007
4. Revenue for 01/2006 to 04/2006
Example 2: If the user ran the query and they provided the value 01/2008, then the values that need to be obtained would be:
1. Revenue for 2007
2. Revenue for 12/2007
3. Revenue for 01/2007 to 12/2007
4. Revenue for 01/2006 to 12/2006
Please help me with determining how to obtain the user input value, and then how to derive the time periods for the columns based upon that value.
Thanks,
Nick

Generating DDL to accept user input parameters

I need generate DDL which will accept input parameters from user, for example, tablespace name for indexes. What is the best way to do it?
At present, I’ve created tablespace with name ‘&INDEX_TS’ in physical model and using it to create indexes. Is this a correct way to do it?
Also, &INDEX_TS appears within double quotes in generated DDL. Is there a way to get rid of double quotes?
I'm using v3.1

Hi,
I have just found out that there is a "substitution variable" facility within SQL*Plus and SQL Developer which allows runtime substitution when applying DDL.
Here are some extracts from the SQL Developer Help:
Script Runner
The SQL*Plus features available in the script runner include @, @@, CONNECT, EXIT, QUIT, UNDEFINE, WHENEVER, and substitution variables. For example, to run a script named c:\myscripts\mytest.sql, type @c:\myscripts\mytest in the Enter SQL Statement box, and click the drop-down next to the Execute Statement icon and select Run Script.
The following considerations apply to using the SQL Developer script runner:
For substitution variables, the syntax &&variable assigns a permanent variable value, and the syntax &variable assigns a temporary (not stored) variable value.
So if the name starts with &&, it will only prompt for the actual name the first time it appears.
Note that this still works if the name is presented as a quoted identifier, e.g.
TABLESPACE "&&INDEX_TS"

Auto populate a textfield based on users input

Hi All,
Working with Designer ES ver. 8.2, and I am looking to see if it is possible to auto fill another field based on an end users input.
Example: End-user enters a 6 digit departmentCode for a program; in turn the field opposite to the departmentCode auto fills with a corresponding programCode; if they do not input the correct 6 digit departmentCode the field will return a null value.
I am trying to move away from my current auto fill drop-down option, so end-user is less likely to select incorrect departmentCode from drop-down
Best Regards
Jeff

radzmar,
Thank you for your response, I assumed there was a simple script to accomplish my task. I had assumed that the .rawValue property would have come into play and was unaware of the xfa.event.fullText property.
Thanks Again

Script to map default printer based on user input

Hello everyone,
Complete scripting noob here but I managed to cludge together a vb script (from various sources) that will remove all current printers and then add printers based on group membership. It can also add a default printer and if they have a local printer
make that default. All that works just fine, my problem is that we have very large floors with many printer clusters. Group membership for printers is by floor and I do not have the option to further define this (Also GPO is not an option as getting
our network group to deploy anything takes years so we need to go this route).
What I would need is something graphical (like an HTA) that when run it prompts the user to input which floor they are on, then it asks them which of the print clusters (on the floor they specified) is closest to them. It would then install all the
printers on the floor and make the default printer one from the print cluster they indicated (unless they have a local printer). I hope this make sense.
I think I have most of the pieces laid out but I don't know how to get the user prompts/GUI and then perform the correct mappings. Thank you in advanced!

I agree with Bill. Using the correct method will be best. You network people will be more than happy to tell you what is set up and how to use it. You just need to ask your manager to get you in contact with them for a little parley.
If you are really insisting on a script then look in the repository. There are dozens of scripts that you can use and modify.
You should try to see this as a challenge to bring modern technology to your company. Approaching this kind of thing as a global IT challenge will usually get the attention of IT and they will usually take it seriously. You will likely learn
many things about the IT resources your company has.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'm sorry if I wasn't clear but I'm not asking anyone to write the script for me, as I said I have most of the parts working. My issue is getting the user input and getting the script to take the action I need it to (I can map the printers based on
AD group membership I really just need to prompt the user to select which one they want as default). My thoughts were to wrap a GUI around it but it's not needed.
I agree that GPO is the way to go but in State Government it takes an act of Congress to get anything done in the mean time I'm trying to get things done with the means available to me.
