How to make different forms available based on user responses

I have created 4 fillable application forms in Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard. First time using this product.
Boss wants a dynamic form, so that if a user answers Yes to a question in Form A, then Form B is automatically inserted into Form A for the user to complete. If they answer No, then they continue in Form A, until questions prompting them Yes/No for Form C and Yes/No for Form D.
We believed that this might be possible if we upgraded to Acrobat Acrobat 9 Pro, with the LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2.1 bundled in.
I have looked at Pro and can't figure it out, and I've looked at LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2.1 and am completely confused as it is so different.
Saw a tutorial that said to go to Tools and use the Action Builder, but I don't have this option in my version. Not sure why?
We want users to be able to use Reader to complete and save the form, and print it for mailing, emailing or faxing to us.
Any guidance or suggestions, or advice on recommended books, tutorials, or training would be appreciated.
We are in Ontario, Canada.
Thanks

Hello,
We had a similar requirement.
The best way we found was to implement the enhancement spot in the beginning of method LOCK_ORDERS of class CL_CRM_METHODS_BTIL. Here, you can prevent the user from editing a business transaction. Be aware this method is called for any BT, so you need to adjust your custom development accordingly.
Hope this helps.

  • How to make saved IR available for all users

    Hi,
    I've created IR and saved it to several tabs based on search conditions.
    But they're only visible for developers.
    How to make these tabs available for all end-users ?
    Does version 4.0 support this option ?
    Thank you!

    Hi
    At present this feature is not included, although I believe it may be in 4.0. Many people have provided workarounds for this. None of which I have tried. I cannot find the original thread but here is a solution from a chap called Ruud
    >
    One way to share your saved reports with others is to 'Publish' your report settings to a few intermediate tables in your application and have other users 'Import' your settings from there. The reason for using intermediate tables is so that not all your saved reports need to be 'visible' to other users (only those that you've chosen to publish).
    Basically you have available the following views and package calls that any APEX user can access:-
    - flows_030100.apex_application_pages (all application pages)
    - flows_030100.apex_application_page_ir_rpt (all saved reports - inclusing defaults and all user saved reports)
    - flows_030100.apex_application_page_ir_cond (the associated conditions/filters for above saved reports)
    - wwv_flow_api.create_worksheet_rpt (package procedure that creates a new saved report)
    - wwv_flow_api.create_worksheet_condition (package procedure that creates a condition/filter for above saved report)
    The way I've done it is that I've created 2 tables in my application schema that are straightforward clones of the 2 above views.
    CREATE TABLE user_report_settings AS SELECT * FROM flows_030100.apex_application_page_ir_rpt;
    CREATE TABLE user_report_conditions AS SELECT * FROM flows_030100.apex_application_page_ir_cond;
    ( NB. I deleted any contents that may have come across to make sure we start with a clean slate. )
    These two tables will act as my 'repository'.
    To simplify matters I've also created 2 views that look at the same APEX views.
    CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW v_report_settings AS
    SELECT r.*
    p.page_name
    FROM flows_030100.apex_application_page_ir_rpt r,
    flows_030100.apex_application_pages p
    WHERE UPPER ( r.application_name ) = <Your App Name>
    AND r.application_user 'APXWS_DEFAULT'
    AND r.session_id IS NULL
    AND p.application_id = r.application_id
    AND p.page_id = r.page_id;
    CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW v_report_conditions AS
    SELECT r.*
    p.page_name
    FROM flows_030100.apex_application_page_ir_cond r,
    flows_030100.apex_application_pages p
    WHERE UPPER ( r.application_name ) = <Your App Name>
    AND r.application_user 'APXWS_DEFAULT'
    AND p.application_id = r.application_id
    AND p.page_id = r.page_id;
    I then built 2 screens:-
    1) Publish Report Settings
    This shows 2 report regions:-
    - Region 1 - Shows a list of all your saved reports from V_REPORT_SETTINGS (filtered to only show yours)
    SELECT apex_item.checkbox ( 1, report_id ) " ",
    page_name,
    report_name
    FROM v_report_settings
    WHERE application_user = :APP_USER
    AND ( page_id = :P27_REPORT OR :P27_REPORT = 0 )
    ORDER BY page_name,
    report_name
    Each row has a checkbox to select the required settings to publish.
    The region has a button called PUBLISH (with associated process) that when pressed will copy the settings from
    V_REPORT_SETTINGS (and V_REPORT_CONDITIONS) into USER_REPORT_SETTINGS (and USER_REPORT_CONDITIONS).
    - Region 2 - Shows a list of already published reports in table USER_REPORT_SETTINGS (again filtered for your user)
    SELECT apex_item.checkbox ( 10, s.report_id ) " ",
    m.label,
    s.report_name
    FROM user_report_settings s,
    menu m
    WHERE m.page_no = s.page_id
    AND s.application_user = :APP_USER
    AND ( s.page_id = :P27_REPORT OR :P27_REPORT = 0 )
    ORDER BY m.label,
    s.report_name
    Each row has a checkbox to select a setting that you would like to delete from the repository.
    The region has a button called DELETE (with associated process) that when pressed will remove the selected
    rows from USER_REPORT_SETTINGS (and USER_REPORT_CONDITIONS).
    NB: P27_REPORT is a "Select List With Submit" to filter the required report page first.
    Table MENU is my application menu table where I store my menu/pages info.
    2) Import Report Settings
    This again shows 2 report regions:-
    - Region 1 - Shows a list of all published reports in table USER_REPORT_SETTINGS (filtered to show only other users saved reports)
    SELECT apex_item.checkbox ( 1, s.report_id ) " ",
    m.label,
    s.report_name,
    s.application_user
    FROM user_report_settings s,
    menu m
    WHERE m.page_no = s.page_id
    AND s.application_user :APP_USER
    AND ( s.page_id = :P28_REPORT OR :P28_REPORT = 0 )
    ORDER BY m.label,
    s.report_name,
    s.application_user
    Each row has a checkbox to select the setting(s) that you would like to import from the repository.
    The region has one button called IMPORT that when pressed will import the selected settings.
    It does this by using the 2 above mentioned package procedure to create a new saved report for you
    with the information form the repository. Be careful to match the right column with the right procedure
    parameter and to 'reverse' any DECODEs that the view has.
    - Region 2 - Shows a list of all your saved reports from V_REPORT_SETTINGS (filtered to only show yours)
    SELECT page_name,
    report_name
    FROM v_report_settings
    WHERE application_user = :APP_USER
    AND ( page_id = :P28_REPORT OR :P28_REPORT = 0 )
    ORDER BY page_name,
    report_name
    This is only needed to give you some feedback as to whether the import succeeded.
    A few proviso's:-
    a) I'm sure there's a better way to do all this but this works for me :-)
    b) This does not work for Computations! I have not found an API call to create computations.
    They will simply not come across into the repository.
    c) If you import the same settings twice I've made it so that the name is suffixed with (2), (3) etc.
    I did not find a way to update existing report settings. You can only create new ones.
    d) Make sure you refer to your saved reports by name, not ID, when matching APEX stored reports and the
    reports in your repository as the ID numbers may change if you re-import an application or if you
    auto-generate your screens/reports (as I do).
    Ruud
    >
    To me this is a bit too much of a hack and I personally wouldn't implement it - it's just an example to show it can be done.
    Also if you look here in the help in APEX Home > Adding Application Components > Creating Reports > Editing Interactive Reports
    ...and go to the last paragraph, you can embed predicates in the URL.
    Cheers

    how to make iPhotos library available to other users

    To give others selective access to your iPhoto library, you have the option of using iCloud Photo Sharing, if the privacy implications don't bother you. The images will be stored temporarily on Apple servers.
    If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support article linked below.

    There is a way to share the library without moving it to a secondary volume. If you really need to do that, ask for instructions.

  • How to make local scenarios available to other users

    I have an xcelsius file with a couple of saved scenarios. I export the file to PDF and send it out to users. The users are not able to see or load the scenarios. Is there a way to fix this?

    Correct me if I am wrong but scenarios are saved in some obscure path somewhere on the user's desktop. Sending a PDF - regarless of whether the recipient has Adobe Reader whatever version of the full Acrobat 9 - will not make any difference: the end user needs to have the scenarios in the same path. Even then, I am not sure that it works. If you export exactly the same version of a dashboard and run it on the same pc where scenarios were saved with the last version of the dashboard, they are not available. The path to which scenarios are saved seems to be different with every dashboard (I have tested this but I would be happy to be proved wrong).
    Saving scenarios is abosultely crucial to many dashboards. The fact that dashboards are not transparently persistent is an issue, for me, and it is something that I would very much like to explore as part of new features. For example, it would be good to be able to let the user select where scenarios are saved or at least have them saved somewhere that is relatively easy to find. But there are pitfalls with that kind of freedom: you cannot have a situation with two quite different dashboards trying to load in the same scenario. By definition, that cannot work.
    Long subject but the bottom line is: you cannot do it, at least not without some major hassle, in my experience.

  • Interaction Record : How to make it non editable based on user status = Complete and on click of  Save

    Hi Guys
    We have a requirement ,where we need to make the interaction record "not editable " when we set the user status to "Complete" and after "Save" button is pressed.
    Please note that we can't make use of status profile settings as we have to enter some information after the status is complete , that means
    after user selects status "Complete" he has to select the value from another drop down and then Save.
    Standard offers such that once the Complete is chosen in dropdown the whole screen is frozen.
    Once he saves it , the document should be locked(read only/non editable)
    Any pointers ?
    We tried "Set_view_Group_Context" and Order_Save BADI and we are not preferring disabling at attribute level as we might add few more attributes later.
    Regards

  • How to make a form for input in web interface builder

    Hi expert:
        How to make a form for input in web interface builder?I have already used it to do PS planning, but I don't know how to  draw lines and checkboxes . Thanks in advance.
    Allen

    WAD:
    Open the WAD and create a new template. On the left hand navigation you will have several Web Items available. Under 'Standard' you have 'Analysis' item. Pull that into your template to the right. Under the Properties tab you need to pick the query [form/layout] that you have built in Query Designer.
    You will also find other items such as Button group, Checkbox, drop down, list box etc available. Pick and drag into the template whatever it is you require. Lets say you want a button. Under the Properties tab select the 'Command' that you require. You could use standard commands that are available there. You could also define functions and commands that you require.
    Query Designer:
    Open the QD and drag the characteristics and key figures that you require into the rows and columns of the QD. You would need to specify restrictions under the Filter tab of the QD based on the granularity of data that you require. You would need to remember that the key figures need to be made Input Ready [do this by clicking on KF and on the planning tab select "change by user and planning functions"].
    This shouldgive you a start. After you've explored it yourself a bit we can discuss further and I can certainly provide you additional details/material on these areas.

  • Hi can anyone tell me how to make the forms url short to the end user

    Hi,
    Im using oracle forms 11gR2 and everything is working fine, but my question in how to make the forms url short to the end user.
    For example my forms url is  " http://localhost:9001/forms/frmservlet "  now i want to modify this url as   "myweb.gov.ae"
    can anybody suggest me the possibilities to change to default forms url to our own url as mentioned in the above example.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Hari

    You would have to either -
    * edit the code pointed to by the new action attribute to
    include the form
    processing and email generation, or
    * edit the form processing script to also include the insert
    record and
    check user name scripting
    The former is probably the better procedure, since I suppose
    you'd want to
    do the check user name before sending the email.
    Unfortunately, this means
    you will have to get your hands into the code, or hire
    someone to do it for
    you.

  • How to make a service available at boot.

    Can someone tell me how to make a service available at boot time via smf ? The question is for a generic service ( network/telnet for example ) and for a site one.
    Is it enough to enable it via svcadm ?
    Thanks.

    yeah all you need to do is
    svcadm enable /network/telnet
    this will enable the service then and next time when you boot the system
    (or i.e. svcadm disable apache2 if you want to disable the httpd)
    have you tried man on svcadm?

    How to make different users to use different Plan_Tables?
    I want each user use his own's Plan_Table. How to achieve this goal?Which version of Oracle - if you're on 10g or later you are already (effectively) doing this.
    If not, then copy the 10g strategy back to your version; in outline:
    <ul>
    drop all existing plan tables
    create a table (but call it plan_table$) in the SYS schema (you may prefer to use SYSTEM) as a global temporary table on commit preserve rows
    create a public synonym plan_table for plan_table$
    grant select insert update delete on plan_table to public
    </ul>
    Look in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catplan.sql in a 10g version of Oracle to check how it's done.
    Each user gets a private (temporary) table in their temporary tablespace whenever they use the plan_table
    Their private data disappears when there session ends.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi,
    As a work around create a warehouse SelectWH and map the mandatory acoounts as a On hold account(in chart of accounts).So there will not be any posting on this account.
    And set this warehouse as default warehouse for all users.
    So without selecting the appropriate warehouse the user can not add the document.
    I think this might resolve you issue.

  • How to make a form dynamic so that it displays different logos at runtime

    I am working on some assignment wherein I would like to make a form dynamic so that in it's designated image holder it displays different logos/pictures at run time? First of all is there such a possibility?? I am still very new to this forum and also trying to understand the logic/bindings/heirarchy etc. in LCD. Any input would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    LC 7 or 8 does not help load logs at runtime. However you can associate all your logs at design time and control their visibility property based on the events. This may help fulfill the requirements you have to an extent however adding number of images at design time will increase the size of the template.

  • How to make a value changed based upon values selected in dropdown menu

    Hi,
    I am making my first Dreamweaver website using Dreamweaver CS6 on a windows 8 PC.
    I am trying to make a website where the user selects different criteria; in this example an ipod's model, condition and size from three seperate dropdown selections (similar to www.itrado.co.uk) and then based upon these selections a value for their ipod is shown. However i cannot work out how to display a value which remains on the same page and changes based upon the values which have been selected from the dropdown boxes. I was planning on creating a database and then creating a simple code which retrieves the value from the database which corresponds to the three selected values, however i am not sure how to go about doing this.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Many Thanks,
