How to ensure unique values of all records in the form?

Hi all,
I need to do some personalization in this Oracle EBS Form - Purchasing Super User -> Receiving -> Receipts -> Lot Entry
I must ensure that evry record entered on that form has a unique value in the column Lot Number.
Can anybody advise me please?
Thank you, Willy

Hi there.
One way to do this is to do a SPQuery and convert it to a datatable using the GetDataTable method and then to a View. The View then has the ability to get unique values using the ToTable method, something like this:
SPList list = SPContext.Current.Web.Lists["MyList"];
SPQuery query = new SPQuery();
query.Query = "<OrderBy><FieldRef Name='Title' /></OrderBy>";
DataTable table = list.GetItems(query).GetDataTable();
DataView v = new DataView(table);
string[] columns = {"Title"};
DataTable tbl = v.ToTable(true, columns);
Hope this helps.

Magnus

How to have a unique value for each record??

could any 1 help me out in this...
I want to have a column name 'Order No' which should be unique.
How to generate a unique value for each record.??

could any 1 help me out in this...
I want to have a column name 'Order No' which should be unique.
How to generate a unique value for each record.?? If you are using SQL PLUS to create the table try something like
this:
CREATE TABLE ORDER_TEST (
ORD_NO NUMBER (8) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
ORDERDATE DATE,
CUSTID NUMBER (8) NOT NULL,
SHIPDATE DATE,
TOTAL NUMBER (8,2) CONSTRAINT TOTAL_ZERO CHECK
(TOTAL >= 0),
CONSTRAINT ORD_FOREIGN_KEY FOREIGN KEY (CUSTID) REFERENCES
CUSTOMER (CUSTID),
CONSTRAINT ORD_UNIQUE UNIQUE (ORD_NO)
-- or a simpler table example
DROP TABLE ORDER_TEST;
CREATE TABLE ORDER_TEST (
ORD_NO NUMBER (8),
ORDERDATE DATE,
CUSTID NUMBER (8) NOT NULL,
SHIPDATE DATE,
TOTAL NUMBER (8,2) CONSTRAINT TOTAL_ZERO CHECK
(TOTAL >= 0),
CONSTRAINT ORD_UNIQUE UNIQUE (ORD_NO)
note: ORD_NO can also be a primary key
If you are doing the INSERT during runtime from a form first
create a sequence in SQL PLUS to handle the ORD_NO value:
Create SEQUENCE ORDERNO_UNIQUEVAL_sqnc
START WITH 000001
NOMAXVALUE
NOCACHE;
and reference it as the ORD_NO parameter in your INSERT
statement:
ORDERNO_UNIQUEVAL_sqnc.NEXTVAL
note: to maintain data integrity you must use the sequence
everytime you insert a new order to table. To start a new
sequence drop the sequence and re-create it with whatever "START
WITH" value you want.
Hope this helps

How to run report to show all the records in the form view of Siebel 8.1.1

Hi.
My template has "for-each" section and there are more than 1 records in the form view. But when generating report, there is only one record in the report. Can anyone offers help? Thanks a lot.
Edited by: user11948585 on 2009-11-18 下午6:08

Hi ,
Could you generate a sample XML from BIP Administrator for the IO on which report is based , and apply it to RTF and see if you are getting the desired values.
Thanks!!

How can I make a report of all records with the date in the last two weeks?

Hi!
I have records with a date field, I want to create a report that only includes records with a date which is within the last two weeks of the system date, is this possible? Surely this is a basic database function, I would have thought, but I can find no help about it and there's very little in Mac Help about doing anything other than simple stuff with reports.
I'm not a genius with databases, so help with any required formula or what have you would be great!

Hi Jonathan,
Here's a formula you can use with the Match function. 'Date' is the name of the date field, which must be a "Date" type field.
'Date'>NOW()-14
Match will select (highlight) all records matching the query. You'll then need to use Organize > Hide Unselected to show only the matches.
Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to make the NOW() function work in a Find request, and neither Match requests nor Hide Unselected can be included in a recorded search, either of which would reduce repeating the report to a one-button operation.

Barry

How does APEX check for null values in Text Fields on the forms?

Hello all,
How does APEX check for null values in Text Fields on the forms? This might sound trivial but I have a problem with a PL/SQL Validation that I have written.
I have one select list (P108_CLUSTER_ID) and one Text field (P108_PRIVATE_IP). I made P108_CLUSTER_ID to return null value when nothing is selected and assumed P108_PRIVATE_IP to return null value too when nothign is entered in the text field.
All that I need is to validate if P108_PRIVATE_IP is entered when a P108_CLUSTER_ID is selected. i.e it is mandatory to enter Private IP when a cluster is seelcted and following is my Pl/SQL code
Declare
v_valid boolean;
Begin
IF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NULL THEN
v_valid := TRUE;
ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NOT NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NOT NULL THEN
v_valid := TRUE;
ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NOT NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NULL THEN
v_valid := FALSE;
ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NOT NULL THEN
v_valid := FALSE;
END IF;
return v_valid;
END;
My problem is it is returning FALSE for all the cases.It works fine in SQL Command though..When I tried to Debug and use Firebug, I found that Text fields are not stored a null by default but as empty strings "" . Now I tried modifying my PL/SQL to check Private_IP against an empty string. But doesn't help. Can someone please tell me how I need to proceed.
Thanks

See SQL report for LIKE SEARCH I have just explained how Select list return value works..

Incomplete Data on report (report does not show all records from the table)

Hello,
I have problem with CR XI, I'm running the same report on the same data with simple select all records from the table (no sorting, no grouping, no filters)
Sometimes report shows me all records sometimes not. Mostly not all records on the report. When report incomplete sometimes it shows different number of records.
I'm using CR XI runtime on Windows Server 2003
Any help appreciated
Thanks!

Sorry Alexander. I missed the last line where you clearly say it is runtime.
A few more questions:
- Which CR SDK are you using? The Report Designer Component or the CR assemblies for .NET?
- What is the exact version of CR you are using (from help | about)
- What CR Service Pack are you on?
And a troubleshooting suggestion:
Since this works on some machines, it will be a good idea to compare all the runtime (both CR and non CR) being loaded on a working and non working machines.
Download the modules utility from here:

How do you log values from RT target to the computer?

Hi,
I am using sbRIO 9633. How do you log values from RT target to the computer?
I created a shared variable on the RT target and used them on the log VI created under "My Computer", but I get error.
I get this error..
\\192.168.1.140\temp deployment failed (error: -1967357949, IAK_SHARED: (Hex 0x8ABC8003) Unable to query Measurement & Automation Explorer for the Shared Variable Engine. Make sure the Shared Variable Engine exists on the RT target and check that the network connection is valid.).

What are your data rates? If you are producing data "continuously", you might find that Network Streams are easier and more reliable than Network Shared Variables. In any case, you need an "engine" on one side (Host or Target) or the other. I'm streaming 24 channels of 16-bit data from a PXI controller to a PC this way, with three other streams handling two-way messaging and transmission of "occasional" time-stamped data to the PC.

Scan through the records in the Form and display the message!

Hello Everyone,
We have a requirement, I do not know how to achieve it.
In a Forms 6i, 2 fields Type, Comment.
Type is a list of Values (1,2,3)
Comment - Free Text Field.
User can enter as much rows of data, but while user saves the data we have to validate that all the records of Same Type(Say 1). If not we have to display a Message.
So how to achieve this? How to scan through the records in the Form. Any comments on it would be great.
Thanks.

User can enter as much rows of data, but while user saves the data we have to validate that all the records of Same Type(Say 1). If not we have to display a Message.I am assuming that you want to check from the first record. Suppose in first record the user coosed 1 and you will check for all the entries for 1.
Couple of ways to do this.
1. While user is entering first record. You can keep that selected type value in GLOBAL variable and while he is entering further records you can match type with that global variable. If it is not matching then you can display message.
2. On KEY-COMMIT trigger you can start loop from first record and can check for all the records one by one. Like.
DECLARE
vVal DATATYPE;
BEGIN
GO_BLOCK('BLOCK_NAME');
FIRST_RECORD;
vVal:=:FORM_TYPE_FIELD;
LOOP
    IF vVal!=:FORM_TYPE_FIELD THEN
      MESSAGE(..);
      EXIT;
    END IF;
    EXIT WHEN :SYSTEM.LAST_RECORD='TRUE';
    NEXT_RECORD;
END LOOP;
END;I would go for earlier approach and will use WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM / PRE-INSERT for type field for this purpose. Because in KEY-COMMIT the system is doing same thing again.

Delete record from the form and from the database

hi,
i want delete record from the form and the database ,but the record is only delete from the from !!!
this is my code :
if //condition then
delete_record;
commit;
end if ;
Any solutions ??
thnx

You have unique key field(s) on the table you are trying to insert which actually restricts you from inserting the same value again.
When you are deleting the record and issue commit there is a record to be inserted in the table which is a duplicate that's why you are getting this unique error.
As oracle is not able to insert your commit fails and stops your deletion of record from table

How to validate multiple lines which is exist in the form builder at the same session

Hi All,
we are working on oracle Forms personalization to trigger the message at the point of saving multiple lines rather than requiring each line to be save individually. Currently the oracle form is allowing to user to enter two distinct lines that have same resource and basis type in BOM.
Currently the Oracle form is allowing to enter the duplicate combination and not giving any error message even we enter the same combination of data.
As per the customer requirement, they don’t want to validate the data while creating the records but when they try to save the form, in that case it should validate all the records at a time then need to display the appropriate message.
Customer don’t want to customize the Oracle standard form. Here we have only option to use form personalization or through custom.pll.
Any idea on how to validate multiple lines which is exist in the form builder at the same session as before inserting the record itself need to perform the validations for all the records.
Thanks for your help in this regard.
Regards,
Thirupathi

you can write a post script which will do the necessary tasks.
I mean, once you are done with inserting records into these tables, exeute another procedure which will insert these "extra" records, based on some logic.
you may not be able use DB trigger as it may generate mutating error or if you don't write it carefully, it will go into recursive loops as you are refering to same tables.

If this is a custom form, you will have to alter the design. If this is a seeded form, pl open an SR with Support

I try to display a number of executed record on the forms screen.

I try to display a number of executed record on the forms screen
while a cursor loop statement is running. (the cursor statement is in server)
And i used the 'when-timer-expired' trigger in forms developer.
it was possible to update the count of executed record to a temporary table,
but it didn't work to dislay the result on the forms in real-time .
only on time the trigger was executed when the cursor loop was finished.
Does anyone know the method of showing the count in real-time???

If I understand you:
- You created a procedure in the database that uses a cursor to process one record at a time.
- This procedure updates a temp table that indicates the current record being processed.
- While the procedure is running you created a repeat timer that queries the temp table and displays in the form the current record being processed.
Now, you say that the timer only executed once after the database procedure was finished. Is that your problem?
If so, I think you may have to start the procedure using the database scheduler. Then use a repeat timer to query the temp table. Your procedure will need to indicate in the temp table when it is finished so you can stop the timer. (There may be another way to check if the procedure is done. For example, the database may provide some means to indicate that the procedure in scheduler is done.)
