How to check for missing fields in the file?

Hi friends,
I have a file to file scenario in which if any of the fields have a blank value, i have to put the file back in the source folder. If none of the fields are missing, the scenario should work normally.
Can anybody tell me <b>how can i check for the field lengths</b> and if any of the fields are blank, <b>how do i send it back to the original folder.</b>
Waiting for your responses,
Divija.

Hi Divija,
>><i>how can i check for the field lengths</i>
Since you need to basically check if the field has a value or not, i dnt think you need to check for the length of the field. Instead, you can use any one of the booloean functions available in the graphical mapping editor to check if the field has a value or not(filed value true or false)
>><i>how do i send it back to the original folder.</i>
You can maintain a flag variable in the target structure such that if any of the source fields donot have values, the flag's value becomes 1 else it remains 0.
Now, you can check if the value of flag is equal to 1/0 in the bpm and accordingly send the data.
If in case, you donot want the flag to come in the target file that is loaded/sent from the bpm in the end, i think even tat can be taklen care of.
You can create two receiver communication channels and define one file adapter in each such that one has the destination as the actual target directory and the other has the original source directory as the destination.

  • Looping in Word mail merges/ checking for missing fields

    I am trying to convert a project that uses WordPerfect merges to use Word mail merges.  One issue that I am encountering is that I cannot find a way to use any looping structures in Word mail merges. Specifically, my data file is a csv text file. 
    I control the contents of the file but its current structure is that it will consist of a single record (not counting the header row).  The number of fields will vary but it will contain a field named Person1.  There may or may not be a field named
    Person2, Person3 etc.  There are several of these types of fields in the record so it is not an option to make a separate record for each person ie for the record I will have Plaintiff1, Plaintiff2... and Defendant1, Defendant2....
    I am having trouble with two things:
    1. how can I test for a blank or missing field ie I want to have a statement like {if {MERGEFIELD Defendant2}="" "Defendant is" "Defendants are"}.  That statement works but it throws error messages to the user that the
    field Defendant2 is missing and prompts them to substitute another field.  That sort of statement occurs multiple times during a merge so asking the users to ignore the errors is not an option.
    2. is there some sort of looping mechanism in Word mail merges.  I need to be able to do two things with a loop:
    a.  I need to be able to list each of the Persons, Defendants, Plaintiffs ie. While {MERGEFIELD Defendant{#}<> "" " {MergeFIELD Defendant{#}" (increment variable # by 1).
    b.  I some circumstances I need to create full documents based on a loop i.e.  While {MERGEFIELD Defendant{#}<> "" <<merge a defendant summons here>>(increment variable # by 1)

    For clarification: In a Word mailmerge, if any of the field headers are missing from the data source, you will get an error. Thus, you can't have a mailmerge main document that references «Plaintiff2» or «Defendant2» and not have the corresponding headers
    in the data source. The fields may be empty, but the headers must exist.
    Re 1:
    You can indeed use an IF test along the lines of:
    {IF«Defendant2»= "" "Defendant is" "Defendants are"}
    or:
    {IF{MERGEFIELD Defendant2}= "" "Defendant is" "Defendants are"}
    Re 2a:
    Creating a list is as simple as inserting the mergefields one after the other:
    «Defendant1»
    «Defendant2»
    «Defendant3»
    This will, of course, result in empty lines when fields have no data. To cater for this, Word provides the mergefield \b and \f switches.Given you can have one or more defendants, you could suppress the extra lines via, say, an \b switch:
    1. select the
    «Defendant2» field and press Shift-F9 so that you get {MERGEFIELD Defendant2};
    2. edit the field code so that you get {MERGEFIELD Defendant2 \b "¶
    3. delete the paragraph break or line break after the field, so you get:
    «Defendant1»
    {MERGEFIELD Defendant2 \b "¶
    "}«Defendant3»
    where ¶ is a real paragraph/line break
    4. Do the same for the «Defendant3» field and so on, till all are done.
    The following construction can be used to manage data where one or more related fields («Defendant2», «Defendant3», «Defendant4», «Defendant5», & «Defendant6») may or may not be populated, so you can get commas before all except the last in a multi-defendant
    sequence, which is preceded by 'and'.
    «Defendant1»{IF«Defendant3»= "" " and «Defendant2»" ", «Defendant2»{IF«Defendant4»= "" " and «Defendant3»" ", «Defendant3»{IF«Defendant5»= "" " and «Defendant4»" ", «Defendant4»{IF«Defendant6»= "" " and «Defendant5»" ", «Defendant5» and «Defendant6»"}"}"}"}
    Note: It is assumed that none of the fields after the first empty one will be populated.
    Re 2b:
    It's not clear what you're after here. However, in addition to using an IF field as per 1, above, they can also be used to conditionally output multiple pages, including text, tables and images, together with additional mergefeilds on those pages. For example:
    {IF«Defendant2»= "" "«Defendant2» is a nasty fellow ... plus the rest of defendant 2's content & mergefields"}
    Note: The field brace pairs (i.e. '{ }') for the above examples are created in the document itself, via Ctrl-F9 (Cmd-F9 on a Mac); you can't simply type them or copy & paste them from this message. Nor is it practicable to add them via
    any of the standard Word dialogues. Likewise, you can't type or copy & paste the chevrons (i.e. '« »') - they're part of the actual mergefields, which you can insert from the mailmerge toolbar. The spaces represented in the field construction are all required.
    Instead of the ¶, you should use real line/paragraph breaks.
    For more Word mailmerge tips, see:
    http://www.msofficeforums.com/mail-merge/21803-mailmerge-tips-tricks.html . That page also includes a macro for turning the above field representations into working field codes.

  • How to check if a field in the table is same in all rows??

    Hi Folks,
    Is there a feature in abap where we can check if a field in a table is same in all rows.
    Thanks,
    Matt

    This can be easily self-programmed
    read itab index 1.  "get first row
    "now check if exeists any entry with different value
    read itab with key field1 ne itab-field1 transporting no fields.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
      "not all rows have the same value
    else.
      "all rows have the same value
    endif.
    Regards
    Marcin
    Right now I noticed that using NE operator is not allowed in READ TABLE statement, but you can do simple loop instead
    read itab index 1 into l_field1.  "get first row
    loop at itab where field1 ne l_field1.
       flag = 'X'.
       exit.
    endloop.
    if flag = 'X'.
      write: 'some fields are not equal'.
    endif.

  • Check for filesize before uploading the file

    Hi everyone,
    I�m currently thinking about a solution to the following question and would need some help:
    I wanna write a small jsf-application where it�s possible to upload files from the client to a server. But I have the problem, that I want to check the filesize of the user-selected file before he starts to upload the complete file, so that I can decide dynamically if it is allowed to upload a file of that filesize . If I simply use the mulipart/form-data-request I always get the complete request and can only decide afterwards if it was too big or not. That�s not the way a wanna go.
    Does anyone know of a good solution to this problem? I guess I won�t be the first one who has to handle with that kind of problem.
    Many thanks
    Thomas

    This can only be done with a client side script. Javascript with ActiveX can do, but in the latest browsers this is disabled by security reasons.
    Locally you might try:<html>
        <head>
            <script>
                function getFileSize(filePath) {
                    var fileSystemObject = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
                    var file = fileSystemObject.getFile(filePath);
                    var size = file.size;
                    alert(size + " bytes\n" + (size / 1024) + " KB\n" + (size / 1024 / 1024) + " MB");
            </script>
        </head>
        <body>
            <form name="myForm">
                <input type="file" name="myFile">
                <input type="button" value="check size" onclick="getFileSize(document.myForm.myFile.value);">
            </form>
        </body>
    </html>This works in IE only and doesn't work in FF 2.0 here.
    I don't know any other solutions as such scripts are forbidden for security reasons.

  • How can I enforce automatic spell checking for selected fields of data entered by form users?

    I'd like to be able to enforce spell checking of selected fields in the forms that I've created using LiveCycle Designer 8.2 at run time, as opposed to design time.  I understand the version LCD 8 has a nifty new spell checker for form designers.  But I want to spell check the data entered by users using Acrobat Reader.  And I want to enforce the spell checking automatically on selected fields only.
    Presently it seems that users filling in my forms, must know how to manually right-click on each field and select "Spell Check" from the resulting dialog box in order to check for spelling errors in the data the user has entered in the form.
    I would like to discover a way to enforce spell checking in selected fields, just as I am able to do in forms created using Acrobat Pro.  In Acrobat Pro, I can set a property for each field to require spell checking.  but that feature seems to be missing in Livecycle Designer.
    I've check the Object model for XFA forms hoping that I might find a method I can call with a Javascript, to check spelling based on an event such as onBlur.  But I haven't found a spell check method.
    Am I missing something simple?  Is there a way to set each field to be spell checked when a user is filling in the form using the free Acrobat Reader?
    Our users are not sophisticated and requiring them to spell check each field separately just won't cut it...
    Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!
    -David Bartholomew

    Hi David,
    Two things...
    At design time set the locale of the form to one that Acrobat spell checks. For example English (US) and English (UK) locales have spell checkers; however English (Ireland) does not. Check the Warnings tab to see if spell checking is supported for your locale.
    If your form locale supports spell checking then you can go to the button script below.
    If you form locale does NOT support spell checking then Stephanie has a great work around to force spell checking (http://forums.adobe.com/message/2233945#2233945).
    Bring a regular button onto the form and in the click event have the following:
    app.execMenuItem("Spelling:Check Spelling");
    Which will open the spell checker for all fields.  Thanks to Paul for extracting all of the accessible menu items (http://forums.adobe.com/message/1912914#1912914).
    Good luck,
    Niall

    Hi Sundhar,
    According to your description, you might want to check the existence of sub folder in a folder of a library using Client Object Model.
    Please take the code demo below for a try, it will check whether there is sub folder in a given folder:
    public static void createSubFolder(string siteUrl, string libName, string folderServerRelativeUrl)
    ClientContext clientContext = new ClientContext(siteUrl);
    List list = clientContext.Web.Lists.GetByTitle(libName);
    CamlQuery camlQuery = new CamlQuery();
    camlQuery.ViewXml =
    @"<View Scope='RecursiveAll'>
    <Query>
    <Where>
    <Eq>
    <FieldRef Name='FSObjType' />
    <Value Type='Integer'>1</Value>
    </Eq>
    </Where>
    </Query>
    </View>";
    //camlQuery.FolderServerRelativeUrl = "/Lib1/folder1";
    camlQuery.FolderServerRelativeUrl = folderServerRelativeUrl;
    ListItemCollection items = list.GetItems(camlQuery);
    clientContext.Load(items);
    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    Console.WriteLine(items.Count);
    if (0 == items.Count)
    //create sub folder here
    Best regards

    When you say hit and miss do you mean sometimes you print a whole document with no problems, or do you mean each document has problems? This is from HP's website for your printer:
    Your sig says 10.6.7 but your message says 10.7. So if it's really Lion, this printer isn't officially supported. Elsewhere on HP's site it says updated drivers will be available on your Mac via Software Update. Have you run that recently?

  • Check for required fields before locking subforms and submitting

    Hello,
    I have a 5-page form with many questions, to be completed by the original requestor and multiple approvers.  What I'm trying to do is have the original requestor's Submit button on p. 3 lock the input on the first three pages, but first check if all those fields have some content.  I currently have all the fields on pp. 1-3 set to "Required" in the object properties, but my script still locks them when there's is one empty one.  Here's what I have:
    //Lock portions of form
    Page1.access = "readOnly"
    Page2.access = "readOnly"
    Page3.access = "readOnly"
    //Save document, allow user to change name
    app.execMenuItem("SaveAs");
    //Submit via e-mail
    Submit_REAL.event__click.submit.target = "mailto:[email protected]" +
    "?subject=Subject text" +
    "&body=Message";
    Submit_REAL.execEvent("click");
    The automatic check for required fields happens after the pages get locked.  I would like the check to stop the process before it locks the pages.  Is there any way to check all at once that all "Required" fields on those pages have some content before allowing the script to proceed?  I know how to script it to manually check the 50 or so questions on those pages, but I would like to avoid that.  Thanks for any help.

    There are a few problems that I can see from the start. First, your code is going to pick up EVERY node that exists on these pages. Some of those nodes will not have a rawValue, and some will not have an actual name. As an example, you can take your code and create a text field to dump all of the names of the nodes that you get when you pull in all of the nodes this way. Here's an example:
    The result:
    Now, the question is, do you have a consistent naming convention for your fields that might be empty? That could be text fields, radio button lists, etc. For instance, I always prefix the names of objects in order to more easily keep track of what they are in scripts. Since I'm doing that, I can check the name of the field for tf, nf, rbl, cb, or whatever I have included to make sure that I'm checking an actual field before I check for things like rawValue.
    var nodeName = oNodes.item(nNodeCount).name;
    if (nodeName.indexOf("tf")>-1 || nodeName.indexOf("rbl") > -1 || /*check other field types*/) {
      //insert your code to check for empty answers here
    As for your line 7 issue. The syntax problem is that you've put extra parentheses in your if statement. Take out the parentheses that are just before and after the or "||".
    *This is my fourth attempt to reply. Something was going on with Adobe/Jive earlier, I suppose.

  • How to check a checkbox field value in fw9 PDF form

    Hi,
    I got a PDF given form IRS (http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw9.pdf). While creating a widget to this pdf form to sign it, I merged the custum data to those PDF form fields using API setMergeFields.
    All the data fields are merged fine except the checkboxes. I tried by passing the values to the merge_fields array as 'On', '1', 'checked', 'checkbox(checked)' but no luck
    What is wrong here in checking the chexbox field in this fw9 PDF or How to check a checkbox field in a form?
    Thank you,

    Hi Simon,
    I re-added and edited the fields of fw9 form by pdf printer. While doing so, I made fields as ready only so that, the data cannot be edited in the form through the widget but will be merged the data to fields only be the code. Wherein Im using the widget only for signature but not for form filling.
    Here, Im able to merge my custom data to all fields while creating widget but not to the fields of checkboxes. The checkboxes fields which are made ready-only are not allowing me to merge the value as checked by the API.
    Please help me,
