Global Variables passing from standard form for use on custom form

Hi,
I'm trying to grab a value from a standard form, and pass it to a new custom form, which I am opening automatically from the standard form via personalizations. Is anyone aware of a way to send a value from one form to another? I was going to try using a global variable, which it looks like you can set through personalization. I tried doing it by passing the value as a form parameter, which works if I hard code a value, but it doesn't work if I refer to a value from the standard form.

in your E-Business-environment may exist some special codings, which you have to think of, when passing parameters through the application.
Copy the question to your EBS-Forum. They know ways using personalization and passing parameters

Passing global variable values from databse to forms

I am using forms 6i and database is oracle 9i.
I am trying to run a form stand alone ( by pressing CTRL-R) without putting it in the application.
since when this form is placed in the application menu it works fine as it has been passed global variables values from the database .
now i am trying to run the form without menu and thus i want to pass the values of global variables .please let me know where should i pass these values in form .is it be WHEN-NEW-FORM-Instance trigger or in Pre-form trigger.
i know what are the global variable values passing into the form from database.
i can hard code any values to check if the form runs well or not.

If you intend to do this sort of testing regularly you might want to consider creating a seperate form with a control block which allows entry of the name of the form you want to run, the names of the globals and their values, and do a CALL_FORM.

What is the difference between using a global variable,passing a valuee and using a reference?

I have created a project that consists of several VIs. Only the main VI has a front panel and the others perform functions. The function VIs are dependent on controls on the main VI's front panel. I have several ways of passing the value of the controls. One is to use a global variable and just place it on the dependent VIs. Another option is to strictly connect the terminal from the control to a VI connector block and pass the value directly. My last option is to create a reference of the control and reference it inside the dependent VIs, but this would also require connections to be made to the VI block.
What are the advantages/disadvantages of these options?

1) Globals are evil and introduce race conditions.
2) The sub-VI only get the value when it was called and updates that occur while the sub-VI is runing are not sensed by the sub-VI
3) This uses property node "value" or "value signaling" both of which run the user interface thread which is single-threaded and you incur a thread swap hit to performance. You also have a potential for race conditions.
The are various methods for sharing dat to/from sub-VI which include Queues and Action Engines.

Buying iphone from Apple store for use with various carriers

If I buy an iphone 4 from Apple store (not subsidized), can I use it with Virgin Mobile's no contract plan? Or do I need to buy it from Virgin Mobile?
And If, after a month or two, I decide not to use Virgin Mobile, can I switch to another carrier using the same phone? or do I need to unlock it or whatever?
I guess what I am really getting down to is this: I want to choose Virgin as carrier because there is no 2-year contract locked in, i.e. flexibility to switch, and I am willing to pay full price for the phone. But if, for some reason I don't like Virgin's service, or they to raise their monthly fee so that it is no longer competitive to ATT, VZ, etc., I want to be able to switch to another carrier with the same phone, and not have to sell it on the 2nd hand market.
I know I can just purchase the iphone 4 that Virgin offers for 350. But if it only works with Virgin and no other carrier, then what is the point of not having tied into a contract? The phone is useless unless I use it with that carrier.
I have not asked Virgin this question yet, because what I really want to know is, if an iphone purchased in an Apple store can be used "universally" across all carriers. I kind of understand there is a different standard that ATT use as opposed to all other carriers, but I am hoping to find the definitive answer about iphone compatibility for all carriers that offer the iphone.

3) I assume VZ and S use CDMA. So, an unlocked VZ CDMA iphone user can switch to S and vice versa, and that's it?
You assume correctly that Verizon and Sprint are CDMA. However, no CDMA carrier will activate a device sold for a network other than their own. In the "CDMA world" there is no such thing as an unlocked device.
Spiral Aim wrote:
4) ATT unlocked iphone users cannot use same phone with VZ, S, Virgin, or whoever else offering iphones at this time?
An unlocked GSM iPhone can be used on TMobile and any other GSM carrier in the US, there are quite a few regional GSM carriers and resellers (like StraightTalk). Not all features are supported/work and it's up to those carriers to get them working.
Spiral Aim wrote:

Now this is where it gets confusing, kindof.
The iPhone 4 is GSM or CDMA only.
The 4S and 5 are World phones meaning they have GSM and CDMA antenna's. A CDMA 4S or 5 can be unlocked by the carrier (Sprint, Verizon, Virgin, etc) and activated on a GSM network. Generally the carrier will only unlock for International carriers for the purpose of using GSM when the user is traveling and there is no partner CDMA carrier network for the user to roam on.

Replacing Adobe forms with Smart Forms for printing FPM based forms

Hello All,
This pertains to HCM Process and Forms with Floor Plan Manager (FPM) based forms.
SAP has provided Adobe Forms as the standard print option for FPM based forms, as can be seen in the attached screenshot.
We want to use the FPM based forms without using Adobe Document Services (ADS). I am checking the feasibility of replacing the PDF forms with Smart Forms, either through configuration or customization.
System Landscape: ECC 6.0 EhP6
Any inputs or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Arun.

Hi Ketul,
Irrespective of the process or scenario, we would like to use Smart Forms instead of Adobe Forms. As seen in the screenshot, SAP has provided the default option of generating a PDF form. This requires installing and using Adobe Document Services. We would like to remove this dependency on Adobe Document Services.
Instead, we would like to use Smart Forms for printing purposes.
This requirement is not tied to any specific process or scenario, but to any business process implemented using HCM Process and Forms framework.
Let me know if you need any further clarifications.
Regards,
Arun.

List of tables used in Custom Forms

Hi All,
I am working on forms . There are nearly 100 forms, I need to find all the tables used in these forms.
Is there any way I can know the list of tables used in each form from backend.
Or do I need to open each form and analyze the forms one by one?
Thanks,
Raj Kumar

You have 3 options here.
Option 1) Open each form using Forms Builder and get the list of objects
Option 2) Use Record History and LAST_QUERY
Option 3) Enable trace

Function not available for this responsibility - Custom Form

Hello All,
We developed a custom form and was working fine in Testing instance.
Last week testing instance was refreshed.
After that all the custom forms are not working. Seeded forms are working properly.
We checked the form setup(ie form, function, menu and we ran compile security and bounced the server).
Custom reports under the custom top are working fine.
Only the form functions throwing the error
"Function is not available for this responsibility".
Any ideas. Is the test.class having any impact on this.

How to use a custom form

Hi,
I need to display the attributes of the currently logged in user.
I plan to do this by displaying the attributes in a custom form which shud appear upon clicking on the End User Menu Form.
I have already created the form and added the link in the End User Menu Form but am clueless as to how to display it.
Can anyone help me as to how to go about with this task.
thanks in advance,

Point To Note:
> > Go to your 'user' folder inside WSHOME and there's
a
jsp called 'customEdit.jsp' open it up and there
should be a line that looks like this:
req.setOption(UserViewConstants........
uncomment this line and enter the name of yourform
here like so:
req.setOption(UserViewConstants.OP_FORM, "The
"The name of your custom form");
now edit your end user menu link to point to
user/customEdit.jsp
now when the user logins in thru the userinterface
he'll click the link which should bring up theyour
form with his info.
***NOTE rather than change customEdit.jsp make acopy
of it, rename it, make the changes in it, andpoint
your link to this new jsp......>
The above solution is applicable to IDM 5.0 SP5
And my solution below is applicable to IDM 5.0 without any patches.
Thanks for the information ,however this is what i
was trying earlier but it wasn't working ....i have
figured out the problem now.
There's a method wherein a object is created in the
form
RequestState reqState = new
RequestState(session, request, response, _wsSesss,
p); In the form there's a method
String url = form.process(req);
if ( url != null)
LoginHelper.redirect (reqState, out, url);
return;
}However there's no object called req
instead it should be reqState.
Cheers,
