How can i transfer a field value in the main report to its sub-report?

<p>You can do a couple of things - one would be to pass the information using the data linking expert.  Right click on the subreport, choose &#39;Change Subreport Links&#39; and select the field(s) you are wanting to pass to the subreport.  CRW will build parameters and a record selection formula for you in the subreport, and if that&#39;s what you want, then great.  But you can also remove the selection formula from the subreport and work with the parameter fields in the subreport however you would like.</p><p>Alternatively, you can look to passing Shared variables back and forth from the main and subreport.  this link talks about the method to do this: http://diamond.businessobjects.com/node/251</p><p> </p>

  • How can I add form field value to the file name in save as dialog box

    I do not want the form to be saved automatically, just want the form to auto populate the "file name" only.
    A little background on the forms I want to use:  My company has 70 retail outlets, I'll use one of our pdf forms called an "Incident Report" as an example.  I would like for a store manager to be able to complete the form, then email the form to the main office (I already have javascript to add field values and form name to the email subject line), once the main office receives it, I want for them to be able to file the pdf electronically on our server.  We have mutliple forms that we use so I do not want any of the forms to automatically save anywhere, (at this time anyway) I just want the office personnel to be able to click "save as" (or whatever they will need to click) and the form automatically add certain field values from the pdf they have received, of which will be different each time the form is sent to the office (Date, store #, employee name etc.) in addition to the name of the form in the "File name" of the "Save As" dialog box.  The main office employees will decide into which server file the pdf should be saved.
    I'm using Acrobat 8 professional, the stores and office personnel use Adobe reader.
    One little note:  We currently print and file a lot of paper on a daily bases, as soon as I can get this to work, we are going green.
    Me and a lot of trees in this will really apprecitate any help you can give with this!  :-)

    You might want to take a look at the document "Developing Acrobat Applications Using JavaScript" (js_developer_guide.pdf) which is part of the Adobe Acrobat SDK, which can be downloaded here. Read the "Privileged versus non-privileged context" (p. 45ff.). You will find an example for "Executing privileged methods in a non-privileged context". Should be almost exactly what you are looking for.
    Small Outline: For security reasons ("the user always has to know what's going on") you are not allowed to use the "Doc.saveAs"-method without the user permission (--> in a non-privileged context). In order to reach the goal of a privileged context you can use a trusted function. You do this by creating a JavaScript file (*.js) in either the Application-JavaScript-Folder (default location on Windows systems: "%ProgramFiles%\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Javascripts") or the User-JavaScript-Folder (default location on Windows systems: "%AppData%\Adobe\Acrobat\10.0\JavaScripts"). Add the following content to the new file:
    myTrustedBrowseForDoc = app.trustedFunction( function ( oArgs ) {
         app.beginPriv();
              var myTrustedRetn = app.browseForDoc( oArgs );
         app.endPriv();
         return myTrustedRetn;
    myTrustedSaveAs = app.trustedFunction( function ( doc, oArgs ) {
         app.beginPriv();
              var myTrustedRetn = doc.saveAs( oArgs );
         app.endPriv();
         return myTrustedRetn;
    The developer guide actually wants you to add this content to the existing "config.js" file. I recommend creating a new file, since its easier to deploy in a network. Either way, every client/user who needs to be able to save documents this way, needs this JavaScript Code in his Application/User-JavaScript-Folder.
    Within the Acrobat Document, which you want to obtain a certain file name, you can now use the trusted functions "myTrustedBrowseForDoc" and "myTrustedSaveAs" to store the file. To call the trusted functions and deliver the file name you can either you use a form field (button) or you add a new menu item. Add the following JavaScript Action to the button/menu item and change "Roller Coaster" to the name of the field which contains the value which you want to become the new file name:
    var fileName = this.getField("Roller Coaster").valueAsString;
    try {
         var oRetn = myTrustedBrowseForDoc({bSave: true, cFilenameInit: fileName + ".pdf"});
         try {
              myTrustedSaveAs(this, { cPath: oRetn.cPath, cFS:oRetn.cFS });
         catch(e) {
              console.println("Save not allowed, perhaps readonly.");
    catch(e) {
    console.println("User cancelled Save As dialog box");
    Good Luck!

  • How can I pass Flex Field value to the Call Wrap Up screen?

    Hello helpers,
    I am trying to get a value from the 'Flex Field' passed over to the 'Call Wrap Up' screen by using Form Personalization.
    Oracle was configured by a subcontractor and therefore I do not know what the exact name of the textfield is in the Flex Field however the label is 'Method of Contact'. When i set 'Show Custom Events' to 'On', I get the response: 'CSXXXRC.INCIDENT_TRACKING.STATUS_CODE:WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE' When i enter a value in the Method of Contact field in the Flex Field.
    Can anyone help?
    I am a complete Newbie to Oracle.... I only know a bit about Oracle Form Personalization.
    Any help would be much appreciated,

    David.  Thank you very much.   The problem was not with the canvas but rather the Viewer.  But the solution was the same.  Somehow, the Viewer window was re-set to Alpha.  I changed it back to RGB.... and the picture is back.   These issues are often very simple.... but they can drive you bats if you don't know the answer.   Very grateful.  Tim

    I tried shifting the Profile folder contents from the old to the new, that seemed to work but I kept getting a message that my security was affected and that the problem could be in that folder so I shifted it back.

  • State machine custom task workflow how to pass one task field value to the next task field

    i am using ItemMetadata.xml to pass value from list to custom task first value its passing the but second value is showing as null
    plus how to pass one custom task value to the next custom task
    i.e one supervisor approver comments submitted field i want to see on department manager approval custom task which is the next approver from supervisor
    ows_firstfield=""
    ows_SecondField=""
    the above ows fields are from list
    in this i am unable to retrive the second value in the task form this is my first query?
    second query is that how can we pass one task field value to next approver task field value?
    any idea
    MCTS,ITIL

    What type of workflow is this?  IS this Visual Studio or SharePOint designer or third party (K2, Nintex, etc...)?  YOu should be able to get ahold of the task that was edited via the correlation token, and then grab any value you want from that
    task (wether it be a custom field or a standard worfklow task field). 
    It would help to know what you are using to build the workflow.
    Thanks!

  • I plan to upgrade from an iPad 2 - 16gh to an iPad2 - 64gh.  How can I transfer all my data to the new iPad?

    How can I transfer all my apps &amp; data from an iPad 2 - 16g to an iPad 2 - 64g?

    Transfer your purchases of the iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases, then backup up the iPad by right-clicking it under 'Devices' on the left-hand side of iTunes, and you can then restore that backup onto the new iPad (a list of what is included in a backup is in this article - it excludes music, videos, synced photos).
    The restore won't copy passwords onto a different device, so you will need to re-enter your email, router, and any website passwords on the new iPad.
