How to assign a default value to a query variable

If I create a query, and it contains a variable that I want the user to input, can I also assign a default to that variable which the user will see when they run the query? If they make no selection it would use the default instead of the user input?
Thanks

Hello Peter - One way might be by using the "CASE" function inside the SQL.
It might be good for you to post your curent SQL here in the forum and a bit more explanation of what you are looking for. That way folks can review and provide suggestions on how to accomplish on how it can be done...

How to assign a default value to a SelectOneChoice

Hi,
I'm working with ADF 11g: WebLogic 10.3 and JDeveloper 11.1.1.3.0.
I wonder how to assign a default value to a SelectOneChoice.
In a ViewObject I have a field defined as Combo Box. Then drawing the combo in my jspx page:
+<af:selectOneChoice value="#{bindings.Circularidad.inputValue}"+
+label="#{bindings.Circularidad.label}:"+
+required="#{bindings.Circularidad.hints.mandatory}"+
+shortDesc="#{bindings.Circularidad.hints.tooltip}"+
+id="soc2">+
+<f:selectItems value="#{bindings.Circularidad.items}"+
+id="si2"/>+
+</af:selectOneChoice>+
Can anyone help me?
Thanks.

Assume u have an LOV relation associated with VO attribute.
1. Go to Edit List of Values window
2. Click UI Hints tab
3. Check Include no selection item check box.
4. Select Labeled Item ( First of the list) entry form right combo box.
5. Give ur default value in right text box.

How to assign a default value when there is no prompted value

Dear all,
I create a filter and it's value is relate to a prompt.If the prompt is not fill I found that all record is selected.
How did I assign a default value so that when I didn't fill some value in to the prompt and still can get the result by
the default value I set?
Thanks a lot!

Are you using dates for between or some character column?
Post your example.
Instead of between use to is equal prompts, so u will have then 2 fields one for date from a nd one for date to. Everything is the same as I wrote just repeat steps...
You must put 2 separate fields if you are using date between and you want to have default variable for both.
Column formula for the first calendar date prompt:
case when 1=2 then TIMES.TIME_ID else cast ('1.1.1900' as date) end
and for the second:
case when 1=2 then TIMES.TIME_ID else cast ('1.1.2900' as date) end
Now you set up default repository variable for both prompts.
Presentation variable you put in the set presentation variable on each prompt:
p_date_from
p_date_to
And in Answers filter will be like this:
*TIMES.TIME_ID between @{p_date_from}{VALUEOF("rv_test_date_to_char")} and @{p_date_to}{VALUEOF("rv_test_date_to_char")}*
or you can put a different default variables
*TIMES.TIME_ID between @{p_date_from}{VALUEOF("rv_test_date_to_char_from")} and @{p_date_to}{VALUEOF("rv_test_date_to_char_to")}*
I posted similar in my blog:
Date between in filter and title when using presentation variable from calendar dashboard prompt or drop-down list in OBIEE

How to assign the default value to search parameter

Hi Experts,
I am using search view , In this I have 5 parameter lets say Transaction Type, Partner No. etc... Now I want to assign a default value to transaction type ( lets say TA) . User should be able to see this default value in the transaction type field before pressing search button.
How can I do it?
My second problem is: I have configured this search view using configuration tool but I want to assign only one value to transaction type (i.e. user should not be able to add new row in the search criteria for the transaction type by using + sign) but in rest 4 fields he can add new row and search based on that.
Note: I am using only "Is" criteria .
Any pointer will be helpful for me
Thanks and regards,
Sandeep

Hi Sandeep,
For the default search values, here is a solution. You have to redefine the method GET_VALUE1 of the context node
For example if it is the BP search (component BP_HEAD_SEARCH) context node is your enhanced class: ZL_BP_HEAD__MAINSEARCH_CN00
METHOD get_value1.
CALL METHOD super->get_value1
    EXPORTING
      attribute_path = attribute_path
      iterator       = iterator
    RECEIVING
      value          = value.
TRY.
*     Delegate operation to selection parameter
      DATA: current TYPE REF TO if_bol_bo_property_access.
      IF iterator IS BOUND.
        current = iterator->get_current( ).
      ELSE.
        current = me->parameter_collection->get_current( ).
      ENDIF.
      IF current->get_property_as_string( iv_attr_name = 'ATTR_NAME' ) EQ 'XXX'.
        IF value IS INITIAL.
          value = 'Your default value'.
        ENDIF.
      ENDIF.
    CATCH cx_root.
ENDTRY.
ENDMETHOD.
where XXX is the name of the field.
Default value will then appear in your search field, but you are still able to modify it if you want...

Fabian

How to assign a default value to a column ?

Hi
In the Object browser is it possible to modifiy a column in order to assign a defalut value to the column ?
I have a table FICHE in which I want to assign a default value 0 to a column which type is NUMBER.
Thank you for your kind answers.
Christian.

Hi Christian
For one reason or the other you can't do that using 'Create Column' or 'Modify Column'. You can only do that by issuing a SQL command : alter table fiche modify column( <column name> default 0)

How to assign a default value on a Tabular Report?

version 3.2.1
I have a column in a Tabular Report (SQL Query (updateable report) ) that I would like to default to a value every time that the Add Rows button is clicked. This column needs to have the same value for every row.
How do I set a default value on the column?
Thanks,
Joe

I've run into the same problem. The 'Default' value isn't even appearing in the form, let alone getting stored.
I'm not 100% certain (I'm still new to Apex too), but I think that the 'Default Type' and 'Default' value fields of the 'Tabular Form Element' might only apply to new records, ie when using the Tabular Form to create new records.
In my case, I'm displaying existing records and I've been trying to enter a default new value for a particular field, ie change the value in the field for existing records from null to today's date. I couldn't get it to work and the more I think about it the more I realise that it is probably not the right way to do it.
One alternative would be to put the SYSDATE into the source SQL (noting that changing an existing tabular form definition would cause an error, so I would have to create a new tabular form). But another (and I think preferable for me) option is to create a trigger that will put the SYSDATE into the field as each record is updated.

Peter

Assigning a default value to a field

Hello Everyone,
       Could you please tell me how to assign a default value to a field in a transparent table, so that while creating an entry even if we don't enter the value, a default value will be assigned.
Thanks,
Anbu.

Like this
DATA: BEGIN OF itab OCCURS 0,
        field1 TYPE c VALUE 'X'
        field2 TYPE c,
      END OF itab.
append itab.
append itab.
You will have by default X set in both rows for field1.
Regards
Marcin
PS: Ooops I just noticed you meant transparent table but I wrote about internal one. As long as you maintain that table using maintenance view you can use event 05 - When Creating a New Entry and set fixed value for a field there. So whenever you create new entry it will receive that value.

A question about assigning a default value

Hi guys, I have a question about assigning a default value to a Numeric Decision CO. This Co needs 2 parameters to compare with each other. I wanna assign para1 during runtime and para2 during design time, but I have no idea how to assign a default value to para2 during design time. Can anyone help me solve this question? Thx a lot.
BTW I`m searching an article about Time-off example`s "details". I have read several articles about time-off example, but those are not detailed enough. I wanna know about all details of COs. Can anyone forward such article to me, plz. Thx again.^^

Hi,
You can assign a default value to the parameter of a callable object.
First attach your CO to an Action.At the action level you can assign default values to the CO Parameters.
Select the action in the design time.
Select the parameters tab for that action.
Select the required paramter. At the top, you can find Default value tab, with that you can assign default value.
I think you can achieve your requirements with Business logic CO better.

Personalization and Default values in selection screen variables

Hi everyone,
I have certain questions regarding Front end part:-
1)     Can we have multiple personalizations for a single user in Web templates; I know it is quite possible in BEx using Variants. Is there any such approach or any other solutions regarding it?
2)     In our project we had a range selection screen customer exit variable on 0CALMONTH, which is showing a default value of 07.2007 to 09.2007, although we have removed the default values from the query variable and also checked the customer exits where it is used, but still its showing the value. We cant delete and recreate the variable as such, as it is used in number of function module. Also these values are also transported to Quality system, where also its showing the same value.
Did anyone face such a situation before?
Eagerly waiting for a solution.....
Thanks in advance

Hi Chiran,
Please try with following approach for multiple   personalizations for a single user in Web templates.
While Defining Variable Choose the Option Copy personalization data from variable .
The Features of above approach is as follows.
1)It will personalize variable values for Input Variables for each user.
2)These values are saved for each variable as well as for user.
3) At the time of defining variable it will allow us to enter one or more default values.All these values are appear in the variable screen when u execute the query or Web Application.
So you can see the variable values in web also.Just try with this approach.
May be it will resove u r issue some extent.
Regarding u r Second Query Just try with Some tables, all the default values entries were saved in those tables. Delete default values from those entries.
Thanks & Regards,
Chandu.

Assigning a default value to a user property

Hi everyone,
do you know how can I assign a default value to a user property? It would be great if I should be able to assign it from the administration without writing any code (like profile web services...).
Thank you!
Alberto Marchiaro

Hi Alberto,
I don't think you can currently do this. In other words you can't set a default value for some object property and have it subbed in when no better value is available.
You can however create a default profile, and set values for the object properties assigned to users (You do this by going to the "Default Profiles" manager). You can then edit the "Default Profile" that is already there (or create a new one), and edit the "Properties and Names". Set the value field to whatever you'd like to be copied by default.
Once done, all new users that are created via a User Synchronization job will have this default profile. The changes will not apply to users that were previously created. If you created a new Default Profile in the Default Profiles Manager, then you need to goto the Authentication Source that you are doing your sync's from and pick which profile you'd like to use for All Groups. You can also create custom Default Profiles for various groups.
Hope this helps,
Akash

How to pass some default values in all elements which are blank in xslt.

Hi,
Help needed:
Scenario:
After .xslt transformation, there are some elements which are being mapped but left blank. I want to assign some default values to it like '0'. How to do that.
Thanks.

One solution would be something like this...
http://remysharp.com/2008/08/15/how-to-default-a-variable-in-xslt/
Or you can use a template like this...
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="node()|@*">
     <xsl:copy>
       <xsl:apply-templates select="node()|@*"/>
     </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Title">
    <xsl:choose>
        <xsl:when test="string-length(normalize-space(.)) = 0">
            <Title>default</Title>
        </xsl:when>
        <xsl:otherwise>
            <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
        </xsl:otherwise>
    </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>For every empty "Title" node, this template will add <Title>default</Title>... If the Title has value it won't be changed... You can change this to your fields/your defaults... If you need default for other field just add another template in the same transformation...
Cheers,
