Help in inserting data to text item

I have a database item, iterval, which is CHAR type and values consist of
'SYSDATE+7','SYSDATE+1','SYSDATE+n/24'...where n is any number. I created a form with two text items, interval_l, which is a list item of CHAR type containing the values, EVERY WEEK, EVERY DAY, EVERY HOUR,etc. and I also have interval_num of NUM type which would contain n from interval. The problem that I am having is that I want to display the current value of interval, for example 'SYSDATE+5/24' as 'EVERY HOUR' in interval_l and '5' in interval_num. Do I need any triggers? I'm open to any suggestions.
Thanks in advance,
Kristine

You use triggers to run when a specific event occurs. So I guess when you query your interval column from your DB table, then the right place to translate the value is in a post-query trigger on the block.
All you need is some pl/sql code to parse the values of Interval:
If substr(Interval,1,8) = 'SYSDATE+'
and substr(Interval,-3) = '/24' then
interval_l := 'EVERY HOUR';
interval_num := substr(Interval,9, length(Interval)-11 );
Else ...

Insert Date Using Text Field

Hi,
i have date item ,Can i insert date from text field in dd/mm/yy format.
My Column for date is DATE type in table.
How can i ido this with Text field .
Thanks

I think you want to have text field for user to input the date? (instead of date picker item type)
If you are using custom PL/SQL code, it is fine, because you just use to_date(:Px_DATE_ITEM, 'dd/mm/yyyy'); or whatever format you are expecting, in your insert statement.
If it is a DML process type, I don't think it's possible - apex probably converts the text from the data picker into a date datatype at run time, but not sure it'd do it when its just a text box.
Ta,
Trent

I take that back. So long as you have specified the application date format in the globalization attributes, and the format in the text box is the same/valid (otherwise it must be in the format as specified in NLS_DATE_FORMAT), it will insert no trouble in a DML process. http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17556_01/doc/user.40/e15517/bldr.htm#CHDBHCBB

How to enter the data into data block text item which has an LOV associated

Hi,
I have a data block, one of the data block text item has an LOV assigned. when I populate this text item using the LOV and do "execute_query", it is taking the value in the text item and adding it to the search criteria, but when I enter a value manually in that text item and do "execute_query" it is showing me an alert(which I created) "Please enter a value".
My question is, why is not taking the value that I enter manually? Looks like before executing the query, this field is getting empty
How to avoid this problem and make sure that the value entered in the text item is added in the where clause of the query?
Any advice?
Thanks in advance
R.G

Problem solved!
Before doing execute-query, all the text items are being cleared,so I used a global variable to store that value
Thanks anyway

Insert hyperlink into Text Item

I'm looking to create a footer text item for all reports that has a link that will launch an email to the BI team. I was able to find some javascript that I can use to launch Outlook but I can only get it to work with a button item or link item. I can't seem to figure out how to insert it into a Text Item.
What I want is:
"If you have any question please contact BI Team"
where BI Team is the link.
Thanks.

Hi,
i hope you want this functionality in WAD report. have u tried "HREF" in HTML code of WAD for that link.
for example: you want to open the link on clicking on "BI Team" so write a code in WAD like this
"If you have any question please contact <a href="http://mail.google.com/" target="_blank" >BI team</a>
Hope this will solve you query
Thanks,

Hi,
Use the below script for control file:
load data
infile 'C:\Documents and Settings\abcd\Desktop\dat1.csv'
into table empz
fields terminated by "," optionally enclosed by '"'
(emp_id,emp_name,emp_sal)
{code}
there is a difference between .txt and csv loading. as we are using csv(comma seperated values)
fields terminated by : {code} fields terminated by "," optionally enclosed by '"' should be comma ( ,) .

STUDENT HELP: SAMPLE INSERT DATA PROGRAM (DYNPRO)

Hello,
I am a current student working on a project for school, so assume I am a beginner.
I am asking for an example of a simple ABAP Dynpro (Not WebDynpro, we don't have access to that) program that will allow user to input, modify, and delete multiple records at once to a DB table.
The DB tables are set up like this:
Z_HBK
MANDT
HBK_ID
S_PLANT
R_PLANT
HBK_DATE
Z_HBK_DATA
MANDT
HBK_ID
DRIVER
CHECKER
CUSTOMER
PRODUCT
R2S_QTY
DAM_QTY
DEST_QTY
I need to be able to enter multiple records into the Z_HBK_DATA table, with the same HBK_ID. I have set the tables composite key to so the table can accept multiple HBK_ID entries:
MANDT
HBK_ID
DRIVER
CHECKER
CUSTOMER
PRODUCT
I have tried countless times to use table wizard, but have not been successful.
Please help my to create simple program that will enter multiple records at 1 time into the Z_HBK_DATA table.
Also, If anyone can help me to add a button onto the following program to allow user to email report from individual report output screen, that would be very helpful as well.
Thank you,
Mike

Thank you,
Mike

Michael, you can adopt your needs using different technologies. If you tried it using a table-control (with wizard), that is something, I do not recommend. Try searching for "editable ALV grid", which will show your editable data that you can always just take from your internal table and pass it to the INSERT / UPDATE / MODIFY statement. You will find it much easier to use during your progress.
If you have more specific questions, go ahead and ask. But do not expect people will give you the whole code once you do not have the idea (that is the place where it comes to the learning part of it).

hi zhao,
welcome to sdn,
for your requirement u can use bdc to upload file to internal table then u can update these internal table fileds to sap tables.

Pls help....BAPI_PO_CREATE1 text items filling...

Hi experts,
I need some help from you all.
While doing program with BAPI_PO_CREATE1 , how to pass the parameters into these tables as inputs... wat are the mandatory fields for this..
POTEXTHEADER
POTEXTITEM
how to assign values into this...???
any useful inputs will be rewarded points.

Hi,
Do you actually want to populate texts against your PO documents? If you have no text data then these tables don't matter.
Looking at SE37 to see the BAPI_PO_CREATE1 you can see that the two text tables are both optional so you don't have to populate them to create a PO. You can also drill down on their structure definition to see the data required. If this is where you are stuck, as you aren't sure what data you need to put into the text tables, I suggest the following to help you figure it out:-
1. Read the documentation for BAPI_PO_CREATE1 as a good starter to explain about the BAPI.
2. Look at the standard function module READ_TEXT and SAVE_TEXT - these are the basic module for reading and saving texts against objects in SAP and have some helpful documentation attached. This might five you a clearer idea of what data goes where.
3. Go to transaction ME23N and view an exisiting PO document that has texts assigned or go to ME22N and add texts to the header of a PO. From the texts tab select the text and change "Continuous-text" in the drop down to "SAPScript editor". This will show you the text in a more basic format and one that is very similar to how the lines of a text should be passed to the BAPI.
Hope this helps.
Gareth.

Help! Inserting data into database

Hi,
I have problem in inserting new data into database.
This is my code used.
PROCEDURE insert_contact IS

GO_BLOCK('BLOCK3');
first_record;
LOOP

And I cannot insert the data.Can anyone help me to solve this
problem of mine.
Thanks a lot.

I belive this got to do with the date format. There is another
posting about this after your posting and there are couple of
good solutions in there for the date formating. Please refer.

Help in inserting data in msc_st_supplies

Hi,
I am trying to develop custom porgram to insert additional supplies into msc_st_supplies table. Customer wants th send the POs which are "In PROCESS" by end of the day before th a Plan gets executed so that it sees them as supply to avoid creation of duplicate supply.
To accomplish this, I am trying to add those POs as suuply in to msc_st_supplies before ODS Load .
I need data mapping for this table. I kind of figured all columns except the sr_mtl_supply_id column? ANy idea what value to map? Checked mtl_supply table in source instance and it is not mapping to this as well.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

Hello Maran,
From ASPC responsibility, navigate to collection menu, and select the Self-service collection option. A window will open from which you can download AOTemplate files. These files will give you information about data that need to be loaded into staging tables, for example for Purchase orders.

Help with inserting Date into MySQL DB from registration form input

I'm trying to automatically input the registration date of a customer into my MySQL DB. Nothing seems to work. I've tried timestamp in a table field, I've tried a hidden field in the form. Any suggestions?

You can use NOW() in the insertion record code, it will display like a time stamp format (date + time). Otherwise u can use this if u just want to store the date, $today = date("j F Y "); . It will display like 21 May 2009. Further information about date() function you can get it HERE.

Helping in insert date as quarters

Hello world ,
i did this in transaction date and put in validation
IF TO_CHAR(:BLK1.EO_TRNX_DATE,'DD/MM/YYYY')not in ('31/03/2010','30/06/2010','30/09/2010','31/12/2010','31/12/2009','30/09/2009') THEN
     message('Invalid Date');
          message('Invalid Date');
          RAISE FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE;
END IF;
here i have to define the date with the year .
i want not to define the year , i just want the user inert in quarter of a year in any year
for example
30/09/2007
30/09/2000
31/12/2002
which i dont need to define it in the code

Simply leave thema out of your TO_CHAR, like
IF TO_CHAR(:BLK1.EO_TRNX_DATE,'DD/MM')not in ('31/03','30/06','30/09','31/12') THEN
message('Invalid Date');
message('Invalid Date');
RAISE FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE;
END IF;

How to insert values using pushputtons in text item & fetch data based on

Dear friends,
I want to insert values in the Text item using pushbutton e.g to insert 05CST884 into text item using pushbuttons '0' '5' 'C' 'S' 'T' '8' '8' '4' (alpha numeric buttons) in the layout editor and then fetch data based on the number entered with that of one in the table in the another text item2 in the layout editor.
Suggestions regarding how to develop and use effective triggers are welcome.

At the block level (for the control block where all your push buttons are, let's call it block1) create a WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger. Your [A-Z] and [0-9] buttons should be on a dedicated non-database datablock to reduce problems. As stated previously, this trigger should just contain the code:
:block2.text_item := :block2.text_item||get_item_property(:system.trigger_item, label);
Also on the pushbutton block, create a backspacve button with its own dedicated WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger containing:
if length(:block2.text_item) > 0 then :block2.text_item := substr(:block2.text_item, 1, length(:block2.text_item)); end if;
This will hopefully erase the last character entered.
block2 should be based on the database table (see Property Palette --> Database) you wish to query and text_item should be based on the database item which contains the code you entered. All the other database items you wish to displayshould also be added to block2.
Add another FIND push button to block1 with the code:
go_block('block2');
execute_query;
Without writing the whole thing for you, I'd suggest you get a decent Forms tutorial book to guide you through the basics (Oracle Forms Developers Handbook).

Difference between Two Date Should come into Text Item

Dear All,
i want to get difference between two date into text Item :P36_C in On Change java script.
i have two Date Item :P36_A and :P36_B .i have extract these date value from table then difference comes into Text Field :P36_C.
Now i want if i change Date into Item :P36_A or Item :P36_B then Defference between two date Should Come into Item :P36_C .
So i have use Java Script Code to do this
<script>
function diffdat(){
    function getVal(item){
   if($x(item).value != "")
     return parseFloat($x(item).value);
   else
     return 0;
    $x('P36_C').value =
getval((TO_DATE('P36_B', 'DD-MON-YYYY'))-
getval(TO_DATE('P36_A', 'DD-MON-YYYY')))+1;
</script>
i have put this into Item HTML Form Element Attributes
onChange="javascript:diffdat();"it's not woring .
How to work that Code with dates.
Thanks

You can always create your own difference function based on your own criteria. You can modify this to suit your needs.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION CALC_OFFICE_DAYS(date1 DATE, date2 DATE)
RETURN NUMBER
IS
v_begin_date DATE := date1;
v_end_date DATE := date2;
v_office_start_time VARCHAR2(10) := '09:30 AM';
v_office_end_time VARCHAR2(10) := '06:30 PM';
v_comp_begin_time DATE;
v_comp_end_time DATE;
v_days PLS_INTEGER := 0;
v_hrs NUMBER := 0;
v_ttltm NUMBER;
BEGIN
select trunc(v_end_date) - trunc(v_begin_date)
into v_days
from dual;
select to_date(to_char(sysdate,'DD-MM-YYYY')||' '||to_char(v_begin_date,'HH24:MI'),'DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI')
into v_comp_begin_time
from dual;
select to_date(to_char(sysdate,'DD-MM-YYYY')||' '||to_char(v_end_date,'HH24:MI'),'DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI')
into v_comp_end_time
from dual;
select (v_comp_end_time - v_comp_begin_time)/24 into v_hrs from dual;
IF v_hrs > 4 then
v_ttltm := v_days + .5;
ELSE
v_ttltm := v_days;
END IF;
return v_ttltm;
END;
As has been noted, this question is best posted on the PL/SQL forum.

Insert data with collection data

Hi,
I am using a loop for inserting data into a table but it doesn't work.
On a form you can insert data for the items (text field). These data were stored in the collection 'COLLECTION_C1_T20':
if :P103_SEQNR is null then
apex_collection.add_member(
p_collection_name =>'COLLECTION_C1_T20',
p_c001 =>:P103_C1,
p_c002 =>:P103_C2,
p_c003 =>:P103_C3,
p_c004 =>:P103_C4,
p_c005 =>:P103_C5,
p_c006 =>:P103_C6,
p_c007 =>:P103_C7,
p_c008 =>:P103_C8,
p_c009 =>:P103_C9,
else
apex_collection.update_member(
p_collection_name =>'COLLECTION_C1_T20',
p_seq =>:P103_SEQNR,
p_c001 =>:P103_C1,
p_c002 =>:P103_C2,
p_c003 =>:P103_C3,
p_c004 =>:P103_C4,
p_c005 =>:P103_C5,
p_c006 =>:P103_C6,
p_c007 =>:P103_C7,
p_c008 =>:P103_C8,
p_c009 =>:P103_C9,
end if;
I have tried to concatenate the members C001, C002, ... of the collection with the counter v_count but an error is shown when I want to store the records into the table:
ORA-06550: line 124, column 9: PL/SQL: ORA-00904: "C00": invalid identifier ORA-06550: line 103, column 1: PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
The source code looks like this one:
for v_count in 1 .. 9
loop
insert into L01_RESULTS (TEST_RESULT)
values
   (select c00||v_count
    from apex_collections
    where collection_name = 'COLLECTION_C1_T20'
    and seq_id =
               select max(seq_id)
               from apex_collections
               where collection_name='COLLECTION_C1_T20')
end loop;
end;Any a idea how to manage this?
cheers,
ben

Mike,
it is a form (wizard) to store about 200 data. This is managed by clicking a button (FINISH).
I have about 10 processes to store the data and for testing I have decreased them to two processes. (8 processes are now executed when the button CANCEL is clicked and the other two are executed when the button FINISH is clicked.) So the process is executed by clicking the button.
I post the source code because it is possible that I made a mistake witch I couldn't figure out:
declare
order_number_value                VARCHAR2(30);
analyses_date_value               DATE;
analytical_method_value           VARCHAR2(20);
analyte_measured_value            VARCHAR2(40);
analyst_name_value                VARCHAR2(20);
valid_identifier_value            VARCHAR2(50);
v_sql                             varchar2(4000);
W_test_result                     varchar2(100);
readout_value                     varchar2(400);
begin
readout_value := 'SIG_NUM_CEN_CELL_';
for v_count in 1 .. 9
loop
v_sql:='select c00'||v_count||'
from apex_collections
where collection_name = ''COLLECTION_C1_T20''
and seq_id = (select max(seq_id) from apex_collections
where collection_name=''COLLECTION_C1_T20'')';
execute immediate v_sql into W_test_result;
insert into L01_RESULTS (READOUT, TEST_RESULT)
values (readout_value||v_count,W_test_result);
-- commit;
end loop;
end;ben
