Help with a field exit

Hi experts, I'm new on SAP, and I have to deactivate a field exit on the Standard Transaction MIRA, how can i do thath?

Transaction Code - MIRA                     Fast Invoice Entry
Exit Name           Description

Exits are basically the hooks whcih SAP has provided to add your own code. There are two types of Exits:
1. Customer exits: Implemented as Function Modules within z includes. Anybody can change it and no access key is required.
2. User Exit: Implemented as subroutines within includes (any include except y or z includes). You need access for the specific include and then you can any subroutine (user exit) within that Include.
BADIs are the enhanced version of user exits where the same logic is implemented via classes and object (OOP)
Enchancement point is the latest once introduces with ECC6.0 . Not very sure about that but you can change it without any access key.
Please go through the following link which will help you understand the exits in a much better way:

Search Help in a Field Exit

Hi all, i would like to know if it is possible to put a search help in a Field exit or if there is some other way to create a searh help for a standard field of a standard trax. the Search help i need is for a <b>date</b> that is not contemplated by SAP.
Reward points guaranteed!!!!!thanks in advance, sorry for my bad English

For example i have the field section in fch5. as it did not use that field (char 10) i was needing to input a date that was not contemplated by SAP. So i use this field 'section' to do this. this field has a field exit that validate the date, because it is a char field. i did this with FM RP_CHECK_DATE, so if the user enter 12.56.2006 an E message is displayed. My question is: is it possible to put a search help of date in that field?
thank all.

Adding a Search Help to a Field Exit

Hi!!!.
I have a little doubt with field exits.
I have just created a field exit for field BEDNR. The next thing I'd have to do is to assign the same help search used for LFA1-BRSCH field ( H_T016 Search Help ) in field exit's function module.
The question is: How can I do that?. Does anyone have a clue of a function to retreive the values of that search help?. Could anybody tell me how should I do that?
Thaaaaanks in advance!
Raú

Try function module F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST and fill in tabname with 'LFA1', fieldname with fieldname, search help with name of search help('H_T016') and the field you are searching on in shlpparam which must be one of the parameters in the search help you heve entered.
Hope this helps

Help with BDC, user exits and BAPI

Hello all:
1) I posted a question before about BDC documentation and people sent me lot of helpful material. Thanks to all of them. I am very new to ABAP coming from VB background and wondering if someone can tell me how to practice one simple BDC program starting from scratch. What do I first need to do to get started? I have Mini WAS 6.20 test version and like to practice BDC programming.
2) What are user exits and BADI and can anyone provide some documentation and sample code if possible.
Thanks everyone in advance.

Go through the following Documentation & Example Code
Just check these links.
Diff. between LSMW & BDC?
BDC SESSION
CALL TRANSACTION
CALL DIALOG
What is BDC or batch input
The Batch Input is a SAP technic that allows automating the input in transactions. It lies on a BDC (Batch Data Commands) scenario.
BDC functions:
E BDC_OPEN_GROUP : Opens a session group
E BDC_CLOSE_GROUP : Closes a session
E BDC_INSERT : Insert a BDC scenario in the session
E The ABAP statement "CALL TRANSACTION" is also called to run directly a transaction from its BDC table.
It runs the program RSBDCSUB in order to launch automatically the session. The session management is done through the transaction code SM35.
The object itself is maintanable through the transaction SE24.
BDC methods:
Method
Description
Parameters
OPEN_SESSION
Opens a session
SUBRC (Return Code ? 0 OK)
SESSIONNAME (Session to be created)
CLOSE_SESSION
Closes a session
None
RESET_BDCDATA
Resets the BDC Internal Table...
None. Normally, for internal purposec
BDC_DYNPRO
Handles a new screen
PROGNAME (Name of the program)
DYNPRONR (Screen Number)
BDC_FIELD
Puts a value on the screen
FIELDNAME (Name of the field)
FIELDVALUE (Value to be passed)
CONSTRUCTOR
Constructor - Initializes NO_DATA
NODATA (No data character). The constructor is called automatically when the object is created.
RUN_SESSION
Launches a session with RSBDCBTC
None
CALL_TRANSACTION
Calls a transaction with the current BDC Data
MODE (Display Mode)
UPDATE (Update Mode)
TCODE (Transaction to be called)
BDC_INSERT
Inserts the BDC scenario in the session
TCODE (Transaction to be called)
BDC techniques used in programs:
1) Building a BDC table and calling a transaction,
2) Building a session and a set of BDC scenarios and keeping the session available in SM35,
3) Building a session and lauching the transaction right after closing the session.
BDC using Call Transaction
BDC using Call transaction involves calling an SAP transaction in back ground from within the ABAP
program. The process involves building an Internal BDC table containing the screen information needed to
execute the required transaction and then passing this to the Call transaction command (See code example).
The full procedure for creating a BDC program is as follows:
What is the difference between batch input and call transaction in BDC?
Session method.
1) synchronous processing.
2) can tranfer large amount of data.
3) processing is slower.
4) error log is created
5) data is not updated until session is processed.
Call transaction.
1) asynchronous processing
2) can transfer small amount of data
3) processing is faster.
4) errors need to be handled explicitly
5) data is updated automatically
BATINPUT/DIRECT INPUT
A: Batch-inputs can not be used to fill the "delivery due list" screen because it is not a dynpro. This is a standard SAP report. A SAP report (check with "System -> Status") may be called using SUBMIT sentence with the appropriate options . It is preferred to call a report than create a Batch-input program.

BDC TO BAPI
The steps to be followed are :
1. Find out the relevant BAPI (BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE for VA02).
[for VA01 use BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2]
2. Create a Z program and call the BAPi (same as a Funtion module call).
2. Now, if you see this BAPi, it has
-> Importing structures.
eg: SALESDOCUMENT: this will take the Sales order header data as input.
-> Tables parameters:
eg: ORDER_ITEM_IN: this will take the line item data as input.
Note :
Only specify fields that should be changed
Select these fields by entering an X in the checkboxes
Enter a U in the UPDATEFLAG field
Always specify key fields when changing the data, including in the checkboxes
The configuration is an exception here. If this needs to be changed, you need to complete it again fully.
Maintain quantities and dates in the schedule line data
Possible UPDATEFLAGS:
U = change
D = delete
I = add
Example
1. Delete the whole order
2. Delete order items
3. Change the order
4. Change the configuration
Notes
1. Minimum entry:
You must enter the order number in the SALESDOCUMENT structure.
You must always enter key fields for changes.
You must always specify the update indicator in the ORDER_HEADER_INX.
2. Commit control:
The BAPI does not run a database Commit, which means that the application must trigger the Commit so that the changes are read to the database. To do this, use the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT BAPI.
For further details... refer to the Function Module documentation for the BAPi.
For User Exits
User Exits
Screen exits are exits that allow you to use a reserved part of the screen (A subscreen) to display or input data.
It is determined be SAP where the sub screen will be displayed.
The syntax is: CALL CUSTOMER-SUBSCREEN
The screen exit is not processed untill the corresponding subscreen has been created in an enhancement project,
and the project has been activated.
Note:
Function codes are only processed in the main screens flow logic
You are not allowed to enter a name for the subscreens command field
You are not allowed to define GUI stauses
You are not allowed to enter a value for Next screen
The global data of the program is not available for the subscreen. Data for the subscreen is provided by function modules.
These function modules belongs to the same function group as the subscreen Subscreens are edited with transaction CMOD.
When you activate a project containg subscreens, the calling screen is regenerated and the subscreen is displayed next
time you display the calling screen
The developer must create the subscreen and the corresponding PBO and PAI modules
How to identify screen exits
Look after CALL CUSTOMER-SUBSCREEN in the screenprogram of the screen you want to modify.
Use transaction CMOD menu Utillities -> SAP enhancements to search for screen exits
MENU EXITS
Menu exits allow you to add your own functionallity to menus. Menu exits are implemented by SAP, and are reserved menu
entries in the GUI interface. The developer can add his/her own text and logic for the menu.
Function codes for menu exits all start with "+"
Example
We want to create a new menu item in the Office menu. The text for the menu should be "Run ZTEST", and the menu will
run report ZTEST.
Goto transaction SE43 Area Menu Maintenance
In Area Menu Paramenter type 'S000' (S triple Zero)
Select Change and ignore all the warning screens
Expand the office menu. In the buttom of the office tree you will find a menu named "Customer function"
Double click on the text. In the pop-up screen change the text to "Run ZTEST". Note that the trsnaction code is +C01
Goto transaction SE93 and create transaction +C01 that calls report ZTEST.
Now you will se the menu displayed in the office tree. If you delete transaction +C01 again, the new menu will dissapear.
USER EXITS
User exits (Function module exits) are exits developed by SAP. The exit is implementerd as a call to a functionmodule.
The code for the function module is writeen by the developer. You are not writing the code directly in the function module,
but in the include that is implemented in the function module.
The naming standard of function modules for functionmodule exits is: EXIT_<program name><3 digit suffix>
The call to a functionmodule exit is implemented as: CALL CUSTOMER.-FUNCTION <3 digit suffix>
Example:
The program for transaction VA01 Create salesorder is SAPMV45A
If you search for CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION i program SAPMV45A you will find ( Among other user exits):
CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION '003'
exporting
xvbak = vbak
xvbuk = vbuk
xkomk = tkomk
importing
lvf_subrc = lvf_subrc
tables
xvbfa = xvbfa
xvbap = xvbap
xvbup = xvbup.
The exit calls function module EXIT_SAPMV45A_003
2. How to find user exits
Display the program where you are searching for and exit and search for CALL CUSTOMER-EXIT
If you know the Exit name, go to transaction CMOD. Choose menu Utillities->SAP Enhancements.
Enter the exit name and press enter.
You will now come to a screen that shows the function module exits for the exit.
3. Using Project management of SAP Enhancements
We want to create a project to enahance trasnaction VA01
Go to transaction CMOD
Create a project called ZVA01
Choose the Enhancement assign radio button and press the Change button
In the first column enter V45A0002 Predefine sold-to party in sales document . Note that an enhancement can only
be used i 1 project. If the enhancement is allready in use, and error message will be displayed
Press Save
Press Components. You can now see that enhancement uses user exit EXIT_SAPMV45A_002. Double click on the exit.
Now the function module is displayed. Double click on include ZXVVAU04 in the function module
Insert the following code into the include: E_KUNNR = '2155'.
Activate the include program. Go back to CMOD and activate the project.
Goto transaction VA01 and craete a salesorder. Note that Sold-to-party now automatically is "2155"

Creation of Field Exits
Step by step procedure for creating Field Exits
There are eight steps to creating a field exit:
Step 1: Determine Data Element
Step 2: Go To Field Exit Transaction
Step 3: Create Field Exit
Step 4: Create Function Module
Step 5: Code Function Module
Step 6: Activate Function Module
Step 7: Assign Program/Screen
Step 8: Activate Field Exit
Step 1: Determine Data Element
- Before you can begin adding the functionality for a field exit, you must know the corresponding data element.
- An easy way to determine the data element associated to a particular screen field is to:
Go the appropriate screen.
Position the cursor in the appropriate field.
Press eF1f for field-level help.
Click on the eTechnical infof pushbutton (or press eF9f) on the help dialog box.
On this Technical Information dialog box, the data element will be specified if the field is 'painted' from the ABAP/4 Dictionary.
Step 2: Go To Field Exit Transaction
- The transaction to create field exits is CMOD.
- You can use the menu path Tools -> ABAP/4 Workbench -> Utilities -> Enhancements -> Project management.
- From the initial screen of transaction CMOD, choose the Text enhancements -> Field exits menu path.
- After choosing this menu path, you will be taken to the field exits screen. From here, you can create a field exit.
NOTE : Even though you use transaction CMOD to maintain field exits, you do not need to create a project to activate field exits.
Step 3: Create Field Exit
- From the field exit screen of transaction CMOD, choose the Field exit -> Create menu path.
- After choosing this menu path, a dialog box will prompt you for the appropriate data element .
- Enter the data element name and click the eContinuef pushbutton.
- Now, you will be able to create the function module associated to the data elementfs field exit.
Step 4: Create Function Module
- You will automatically be taken to the Function Library (SE37) after entering a data element name and clicking the eContinuef pushbutton.
- In the eFunction modulef field, a function module name will be defaulted by the system based on the data element specified. This name will have the following convention:
FIELD_EXIT_<data element>
- You can add an identifier (an underscore followed by a single character ).
- The first function module for a data elementfs field exit must be created without an identifier.
- To create the function module, click on the eCreatef pushbutton, choose menu path Function module -> Create, or press eF5f.
- After choosing to create the function module, you will get the warning: "Function module name is reserved for SAP". This message is just a warning so a developer does not accidentally create a function module in the field exit name range. By pressing eEnterf, you will be able to go ahead and create the function module.
- Before coding the function module, you will have to specify the function modules attributes -- function group, application, and short text.
Step 5: Code Function Module
- From the function modulefs attributes screen, click on the eSource codef pushbutton or choose the Goto -> Function module menu path to the code of the function module.
- Here you will add your desired functionality for the field exit.
- Remember that field exitfs function module will have two parameters -- one importing parameter called "INPUT" and one exporting parameter called "OUTPUT". These parameters will be set up automatically by the system.
- You must remember to assign a value to the OUTPUT field. Even if the value does not change, it must be moved from the INPUT field to the OUTPUT field.
Step 6: Activate Function Module
- After coding the function module, you must remember to activate it.
- Use the Function module -> Activate menu path to activate the function module.
- At this point, you can return to the field exit transaction.
- You should be able to 'green arrow' back to this transaction.
- When you return to the field exit transaction, you will see an entry for the newly created field exit.
- At this point, the field exit is global. That is, it applies to all screens that use a particular data element. On any screen that uses the data element, the corresponding field exit function module will be triggered, once it is active.
- Also, the field exit will not be triggered yet because it is inactive.
Step 7: Assign Program/Screen
- This step is only needed if you want to make a field exit local.
- To make a field exit local, select the field exit and click on the eAssign prog./screenf pushbutton.
- In the dialog box , indicate the appropriate program name and screen number.
This information indicates that the field exit is local to the specified screen in the specified program.
- In the dialog box, you determine which function module gets executed for the field exit by specifying the identifier in the eFld. Exitf field.
- If this field is left blank, the function module triggered will be 'FIELD_EXIT_<data element>'.
- If a single-character identifier is entered into the field, the function module triggered will be 'FIELD_EXIT_<data element>_<identifier>'.
Step 8: Activate Field Exit
- The field exit must be active for it to be triggered by the system.
- Activate the field exit by choosing the Field exit -> Activate menu path.
- After assigning the field exit to a change request, its status will change to eActivef and it will be triggered automatically on the appropriate screen(s).
NOTE : In order to activate the field exit the profile parameter abap/fieldexit = YES must be set on all application servers

Help with Required fields-PLEASE

I have been attempting to get help with a required field and one of the forum helpers said he got it to work for me but I cannot and I have not been able to get any more responses from him to help me further.
I am attempting to have a radio box when the YES is selected to require another field to be completed. The script I was provided with is:
getField("Location").required = (getField("Group1").value == "Yes");
Location being the field that I require to be filled in if Group 1 is Yes. The previous forum helper indicated that I had to have this script in both fields in Group 1 and when I do that, nothing different happens.
What am I doing wrong?
Please, I need to fix this right away and I will be using this java script on many other forms that I have so I need to get this done soon.
Thank you in advance.

Wht you want can get somewhat complicated. One way to prevent subsequent fields from being used is to set them to read-only and/or hidden. You could then use the Validate event of the text field to validate the entry and enable the subsequent fields if it is filled-in adequately. In general, you should also reset the fields whenever you hide them, so they don't contain potentially invalid data from previously being filled-in. So you could initially have the fields set to be hidden, and only unhide them if No is selected, or if Yes is selected and the required text field is filled-in.
I realize this may not be as helpful as you had hoped for, but I can't suggest specific code without knowing more about the form.

Help with formatting fields in PDF...

Hi -
I´m working on a form that should be filled in from the internet...
The design I did i InDesign - and the formfields I did i Acrobat Pro -
and finally I´m finetuning everything in LiveCycle...
I've runned into two problems...
I need the date field to correct itself -
if the user choice to use the wrong format...
for example -
we want to have YYYY-MM-DD
and if the user writes DD MM YY -
it should be accepted and corrected....
is this possible - maybe with JAVA-script?
Also - In Sweden anyway we always write the Social Security number in this way
YYMMDD-NNNN ( N = Numbers between 0-9 )
How can I get the field to recognize and to crave - "demand" this format...
I´ll hope my Swinglish can be understandable?
IdéSpiran

I suggest that you make use of the Validation patterns for this. On the Object palette there is a Value tab and on that tab is a button for Validation Pattern. You can create a pattern in 4 areas - Display - what the user sees on teh screen, Edit - what the user enters in the field, Validation - what the value entered will be validated against and Data - what is stored in the data file. You will be interested in the Display pattern. Depending on the type of field you will see different data patterns ( i.e. Date fields show date patterns and TextFields have phone numbers, zip codes etc..). You can also create a custom pattern. Have a look in the docs about patterns and you will see what each of the chars represents and how to create one. For your SSN you will probably need javascript because of the combination of Date and number formats.
Hope that helps

Need help with parameter fields and report selection.

Hi all:
I hope some one can help me with the problem I am having with my parameter field and record selection.
First, can anyone explain to me why my parameter field CustStart, which is dynamic and is based on the field Customer in the table CustMaster. There are over 1800 records in the CustMaster table but the drop down list only shows maybe about half of them and there is no way to scroll down to the last customer record. What am I doing wrong?
Second, is there any way to base a parameter field on a formula field on my report? On my report I have created a field Cust that is the customer name and number joined together in one field. I would very much llike to use this formula in my record selection and in my parameter field. Can it be done?
All help is greatly appreciated
Thanks,
FatMan

Hi,
You can use the following for changin increasing the LOV.
Crystal Reports XI BusinessObjects Enterprise XI
For performance reasons, in Crystal Reports XI Release 1 and Release 2 the maximum number of values that are returned for a list of values is set to 1000. If you have a cascading List of Values (for example Country > Region > City), the lowest level (in this case City) will only display a maximum of 1000 values. This means that the higher-level prompts may display far fewer values than you expect. The list of values provides the data for the dynamic parameter list.
How can you modify the maximum number of values available in a dynamic parameter list?
Resolution
To increase the maximum number of values available in a dynamic parameter list, you must add a registry key.
CAUTION     The following resolution involves editing the registry. Using the Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall the Microsoft Windows operating system. Use the Registry Editor at your own risk. For information on how to edit the registry key, view the 'Changing Keys and Values' online Help topic in the Registry Editor (Regedit.exe).
It is strongly recommended that you make a backup copy of the registry files (System.dat and User.dat on Win9x computers) before you edit the registry.
Crystal Reports XI Release 1
1.     Create a registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV.
NOTE     Alternatively, you can create the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV and that key will override the settings of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV key.
2.     Add a string value "MaxRowsetRecords" and set the value to the maximum number of values that you desire for your report. For example, a value of 2000 will return up to 2000 values in the lowest level of a cascading parameter. NOTE: The value 0 (Unlimited) will not work with BusinessObjects Enterprise XI or Crystal Reports Server XI, you must specify another value.
NOTE     The higher the number of values is, the longer it will take the Enter Values dialog box to populate with values.
3.      After making changes to the registry, restart the affected service or application as required.
Crystal Reports XI Release 2

Hello,
I have two ejbs, one called EstablishmentEJB and another called VisitorCommentsEJB. The relationship is of one EstablishmentEJB instance to many VisitorCommentsEJB instances.
Here are the definitions for the tables:
CREATE TABLE establishments (
DB_ESTABLISHMENT_ID int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
DB_POSTCODE varchar(100) NOT NULL default '',
DB_ESTABLISHMENT_NAME varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
PRIMARY KEY (DB_ESTABLISHMENT_ID)
) TYPE=InnoDB;
CREATE TABLE visitors_comments (
DB_VISITOR_COMMENT_ID int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
DB_ESTABLISHMENT_ID int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
DB_COMMENT varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
PRIMARY KEY (DB_VISITOR_COMMENT_ID)
) TYPE=InnoDB;Here are the xml DDs:

Thanks all for replying,
The error occurs when I run the client and not at deploy time. Here is the client code:
     public void addComment(Integer primaryKey, String comment) {
          System.out.println("primaryKey------>" + primaryKey);
          try {
               PGEstablishmentLocalHome establishmentHome = (PGEstablishmentLocalHome) PGServiceLocator.getInstance().getLocalHome("PGEstablishmentHome_L");
               PGEstablishmentLocal establishmentLocal = establishmentHome.findByPrimaryKey(primaryKey);
               establishmentLocal.addComment(primaryKey,comment);
          } catch (PGServiceLocatorException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
          } catch (FinderException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
u haven't defined the PK entry in the Establishment EJB Bean in DDYes look in the standard DD.
What's more I need both DD as I would with most ejb containers.
The field DB_ESTABLISHMENT_ID is required and I cannot set it to NULL.
Any other help greatly appreciated.

Need help with a field to increment points

There is a business need to add points for some of our accounts. Example is that if an account is a training account, we need to add 5 points. If the same account has a special program tied to it, it gets another 3 points, so on and so forth..
I need to know what kind of a field I can set up for this to capture the points. It seems the field will need to be a calculated field. However, how can I store the matrix?
Then, we need to run a report to show points by account.
I'm really in need of help here .. not sure how to address this business need.
Thanks,
Anita

Hi !
If you only need a report showing your accounts ordered by points, you'll have to build your report and use the CASE WHEN ... THEN ... ELSE ... END function. If you have for example 3 checkboxes when :
the 1st brings 3 points
the 2nd brings 7 points
the 3rd brings 12 points
You'll have in your report something like :
Column 1 : Account Name
Column 2 : Checkbox1 (CASE WHEN checkbox1 = 'Y' THEN 3 ELSE 0 END)
Column 3 : Checkbox2 (CASE WHEN checkbox2 = 'Y' THEN 7 ELSE 0 END)
Column 4 : Checkbox3 (CASE WHEN checkbox3 = 'Y' THEN 12 ELSE 0 END)
Column 5 : Total (Column 2 + Column 3 + Column 4)
You can easily do the same with picklist values :
CASE WHEN pick1 = 'val1' THEN 3
WHEN pick1 ='val2' THEN 8
ELSE 0 END
And if you need to display a score on the account detail page, I'll suggest to create a web applet displaying a report calculating the score the same way than above, but with the AccountId as parameter.
Hope this will help, feel free to ask more !

Need help with string field formula

Post Author: dshallah
CA Forum: Formula
What I am trying to accomplish:
The report has item numbers and each item number has the
potential to be associated with up to three u2018binsu2019. So the fields are u2018item
numberu2019, u2018bin1, u2018bin2u2019 and u2018bin3u2019.
I tried to write a u2018if thenu2019 statement that would only show
records that had a value of less than 1 in each u2018binu2019 field. When I try to
write the statement I get a message that says u2018A string is required hereu2019 and
it highlights the number 1 in my statement. I have a feeling itu2019s because the u2018binu2019
fields are string fields and not number fieldsu2026? So I am not sure the proper
procedure to correct this. Thus help is needed and appreciated.
Here is what I wrote:
if {IC_LOC_HIST.BIN_NAME_1} < 1 then
{IC_LOC_HIST.BIN_NAME_1}
What is correct way to write a statement that will show me
the zero values in each column of bin fields?
Thanks!

CA Forum: Formula
You must have a non-numeric value in there somewhere - up in the top left of the formula editor window, it'll show you the variables you've passed to the formula, which should help track down what's going on.
You could try and check that the value is a number first by using something like:
if isnull({IC_LOC_HIST.BIN_NAME_1}) = false and isnumeric({IC_LOC_HIST.BIN_NAME_1}) = false and then "Error - Should be a Number!"
else

Hi,
This is my problem. I have a table with two columns - PRINT , NAME.
The data in the two columns are : ("My name is <?NAME?>", "Micheal")
In BI Pub, I wrothe the dataset as " select PRINT, NAME from TABLE "
In templete builder, what should I do to get the final output as *" My name is Micheal"*
But I am getting "My name is <?NAME?>" I need to replace "<?NAME?>" with "Micheal". i.e dynamic Merge field replacement with in a field.
Hope I made it clear.....Help would be appreciated. I am a newbie here !!

You cannot parse the string as element :)
so , its not possible, you are trying to build the template from DB Table.
<?NAME?> , this syntax will be parsed by tempalte.
If you put it in String in XML. like [ MY Name is "<?NAME?>"] , it will considered as String. and not as a data element to be parsed.
Its not possible.
Instead of doing this,
<ROW>
<PRINT>Letter from</PRINT>
<TOBEPRINTED>1</TOBEPRINTED>
<NAME>Canaopy</NAME>
<ADDRESS> NY</ADDRESS>
</ROW>
- <ROW>
<PRINT>Send letter to </PRINT>
<TOBEPRINTED>2</TOBEPRINTED>
<NAME>Mann</NAME>
<ADDRESS> CA</ADDRESS>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>
If you can get the TOBEPRINTED column,
which indicates
what to be printed.
1- name
2- Address
we can write a if statement in template to display based on the value.
But again the position will be a problem, multiple replacement will be a problem
its like, creating the logic of display template in XML.

Help with Date Field properties

I have a problem setting properties for date field. I want date in mm/dd/yy format, that i am able to but I want something like this. When someone enters date as just numbers like 080708, it should automatically make it as 08/07/08.
I tried doing some setting but couldn't find any help appreciated.
thanks

You will need to adjust the validation patterns in the Value tab on the object palette. There are four patterns that you can play with (Display, Edit, Validation and Data). Each pattern will affect the field data at different times. To get access to the patterns click on the Validation Pattern...button. A new dialog will open up with the 4 patterns available to you. The display pattern is how the data will be shown on screen. The edit pattern is how the user will enter the data, the Validation pattern is how the field will be validated and the Data pattern is how the data will appear in the saved XML.
In your case you will want to set a disply pattern of DD/MM/YY and an edit pattern of DDMMYY. This will allow the user to enter 080708 or 08/07/08 and it will display 08/07/08 all of the time.
Hope that helps

Help with populating fields

Hi all,
I'm having a little trouble with an if statement and I wondering if you can help. I'm creating a form where I would like text box field A to populate with information from fields B & C, only if fields D & E match. Below is my current statement. The form keeps getting stuck on the first if statement when all cases are true. Is there a way to have the statement continue even after one case is true (i.e. to make a list in text box A)? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
//form1.DCF.Subform3.NSUFACULTY1::click:
if (form1.DCF.Subform3.PIACADEMICUNIT1==form1.FacePage.Subform1.PIACADEMICUNIT1) then
form1.DCF.Subform3.NSUFACULTY1=forms1.FacePage.Subform1.PINAME1
elseif (form1.DCF.Subform3.PIACADEMICUNIT1==form1.FacePage.Subform1.PIACADEMICUNIT1) then
form1.DCP.Subform3.NSUFACULTY1=form1.FacePage.Subform.NAME2
endif

I think you still don't have the full path. Try adding .rawValue to the end of your fieldnames, i.e.:
//form1.DCF.Subform3.NSUFACULTY1::click:
if (form1.DCF.Subform3.PIACADEMICUNIT1.rawValue==form1.FacePage.Subform1.PIACADEMICUNIT1.rawValue) then
form1.DCF.Subform3.NSUFACULTY1.rawValue=form1.FacePage.Subform1.PINAME1.rawValue
elseif (form1.DCF.Subform3.PIACADEMICUNIT1.rawValue==form1.FacePage.Subform1.PIACADEMICUNIT1.rawValue) then
form1.DCP.Subform3.NSUFACULTY1.rawValue=form1.FacePage.Subform.NAME2.rawValue
endif
Also, please double check that the scripting language is set to javascript.

Need help with disabling fields or hiding rows based on previous field

Hi,
I have a report in a region.
The report has five columns:
Animal type_ Health Issues* Angel Grant Requested?* Granted?* Grant Response Date*
Dog Fleas Yes Yes 02/04/2009
Cat Fleas No
The first time the screen is displayed only the Animal type_ Health Issues* Angel Grant Requested?* columns will appear.
The user will make a selection for 'Angel Grant Requested' from the LOV ('YES', 'NO') and then click on the 'Submit' button.
When the screen returns 'Angel Grant Requested?' will be grayed out so the user cannot change the selection. The user will make a selection for 'Granted?' using LOV ('YES, 'NO') and for 'Grant Response Date' using the calendar.
{color:#ff0000}{color:#0000ff}Here is what I want to do...
If the user selects 'NO' for 'Angel Grant Requested?' then I would like to do one of the following (which ever one is easiest to do) when the screen returns:
1. Disable (gray out) the 'Granted?' and 'Grant Response Date' fields on the screen for the rows that have 'NO' for 'Angel Grant Requested?'
so that the user cannot make any selection, AND update the HEALTH_ISSUES table to
set grant_granted = 'N/A'
grant_response_date = sysdate
WHERE animal_issue_type_id = AI_ID;
2. Do not display the rows that have 'NO' for 'Angel Grant Requested?'
{color}
Can you please provide code samples to do this?
{color:#ff0000}*I tried to use javascript to gray out the columns, the problem I have is with the hidden f02 column (Angel Grant Requested) that I created on the report so that javascript could read the value. columns are being disabled as desired but the database table is not updating properly...*
{color:#ff0000}*For the rows where the user selected 'YES' for 'Angel Grant Requested?' we need to update the table with the 'Granted?' and 'Grant Response Date' values. These values are somehow being put on the row where the user selected 'NO' for 'Angel Grant Requested?'.*
This happens in the UPDATE_ISSUES PL/SQL after When :P6_DSP_REQUESTED = 'DSPGRANTED'{color}
Below is the Javascript function that is in HTML HEADER:_
</script>

var col3=document.forms[0].f03; /* angel grant granted */
var col4=document.forms[0].f04; /* grant response date */
for (i=0;i<col2.length;i++)
var col2Check = col2+.value; /* read the hidden angel grant requested field */+
+/* checks the hidden angel grant requested field+
if no then we need to disable the angel grant granted field and the angel response date field.
if (col2Check == 'NO')

col3.disabled=true; /* angel grant granted (Yes No) */
col4.disabled=true; /* angel response date

It's actually three reports that get run during different stages of the screen.
When the user first enters the screen the data is populated from the REQUESTED REPORT sql:
SELECT hit.animal_issue_type_id, at.animal_type_desc, it.issue_type_desc, hit.grant_requested
FROM health_issue_types hit, animal_types at,issue_types it
WHERE hit.animal_type_id = at.animal_type_id
AND hit.issue_type_id = it.issue_type_id
AND hit.file_no = :P6_FILE_NO;
The user will make a selection from the LOV select list (Yes, No) for the grant_requested field and then click on the Submit button.
{color:#ff0000}*If the user selects 'NO' for this field then I want to disable the grant_granted and grant_response_date fields when the screen is populated from the ISSUES REPORT sql. If this cannot be easily done then I would like to hide the entire row when 'NO' has been selected for the grant_requested field.*{color}
When the screen returns the data is populated from the ISSUES REPORT sql:
ISSUES REPORT
SELECT hit.animal_issue_type_id, at.animal_type_desc, it.issue_type_desc, hit.grant_requested,
hit.grant_granted, hit.grant_response_date
FROM health_issue_types hit, animal_types at,issue_types it
WHERE hit.animal_type_id = at.animal_type_id
AND hit.issue_type_id = it.issue_type_id
AND hit.file_no = :P6_FILE_NO;
At this point the grant_requested field will no longer be available for user modification. The user will make a selection from the LOV select list (Yes, No) for the grant_granted, and the grant_response_date fields and then click on the Submit button again.
When the screen returns the data is populated from the ANIMAL DISPLAY ONLY REPORT sql:
ANIMAL DISPLAY ONLY REPORT
SELECT hit.animal_issue_type_id, at.animal_type_desc, it.issue_type_desc, hit.grant_requested,
hit.grant_granted, hit.grant_response_date
FROM health_issue_types hit, animal_types at, issue_types it
WHERE hit.animal_type_id = at.animal_type_id
AND hit.issue_type_id = it.issue_type_id
AND hit.file_no = :P6_FILE_NO;
At this point the grant_requested, grant_granted, and grant_response_date fields will no longer be available for user modification.
