How to make Multi Select Picklist Field Required Based on another field

Hi,
I want to make one filed which is Multi select Required(mandatory) based on certain value in another filed.
I tried putting IIf([<FieldNAme>]> 1000 AND [<FiledNAme1>] IS NULL,"Invalid",[<FieldNAme>]) in the Field validatation as but it is not working.
Please suggest any workaround available.
Warm Regards
Pramod

I guess FieldName1 is the multiselect picklist you are referring to?
Where did you get the ITAG from? I don't see any multiselect picklists available in Expression Builder. I doubt whether you can set validations on multi select picklists at all.
If anyone has achieved this please let me know as well.

How to make DFF mandatory in forms personalization based on another field

how to make DFF field mandatory in forms personalization based on another field ,and also user can put values in the DFF field.

Hi,
4 DFFs are enabled.
CASE1: when payment is voided DFF4 should be mandatory feild
CASE2: when user queries the voided payment , above DFF4 should be readonly or not editable
Unable to acheive both the cases with Forms Personalization.
When trying case2 error pops up saying null canvas.
Can you please provide some examples if you have any.
I can find any customizations on this form

Make one field required based on another field

I am trying to set a form up, so that when a check box is marked, then the corresponding date field is required. I set the script language to Javascript and entered this script:
if
(this.rawValue == "1") (PROPOSALDATE.mandatory = "error")
However, I get an error message stating "syntax error near toekn '!' on line 1, column 20." There is no ! in this script, so I don't know what it is talking about. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
The script that executes if the statement is true should be inside curly brackets. So the following in the click event of the checkbox should work:
if (this.rawValue == "1")
PROPOSALDATE.mandatory = "error";
else
PROPOSALDATE.mandatory = "disabled";
The above is Javascript.
Hope that helps,

Making a DFF field mandatory based on another field

Hello All,
We have a requirement where in we need to make a DFF field mandatory based on another field.
example:
DFF has two fields :
Filed1 : values 'Email', 'Fax'
Filed2
If 'Email' is selected in 'Field1' then Field2 should become mandatory.
Any inputs on this will be really helpful.
Thanks & Regards,
Satya.

hi kumar3a,
recently, i spent considerable amount of time wracking my brain on a similar problem. the nearest i came to a solution was when i used a forms personalisation. mind you, forms personalisation will not work directly on the DFF window, so it has to be approached in a roundabout sort of way.
i got this information from an Oracle Support personnel - MOS Note 1078348.1.
i would start with the flexfield segment as "not required", and then using Forms Personalization, i would make it "required". i would try to figure out how to establish a condition where the previous 'required' flexfield segment's value is checked to see if this 'not required' segment needs to be made 'required'. in theory, this should solve the issue. i gave up on it because the forms personalisation would need to cover WHEN-VALIDATE trigger event, and we had close to 100 validations going on through other preexisting forms personalisations, which rendered it near impossible to employ this method.
best regards.

How to make multi select list as dropdown??

Hi friends,

Do you mean displaying a multi-select enabled select list as a drop-down list rather than as a list box? If so, this is not possible using standard APEX/web browser controls.

Making fields required based on other field input

I am creating a form in adobe acrobat pro that employees need to fill in to show the clients they have worked for in a week. The form has 10 lines for them to fill in the date, client name, address etc for 10 clients. I want to make the client name and address fields required only if the date has been filled in in the first column. I can't make every row required fields as they may not have 10 clients that they have worked for. I have a send button set up so that all required fields are completed before the form can be sent. Can someone help me with the script I would need. I have worked out how to make the fields required if a check box is ticked but can't find any scripting for fields to be required if text has been entered in a specific field.

You can use the custom validation script of the date fields. Let's say you
want to make Name1 and Address1 required if Date1 is not empty.
Use this code to do it:
this.getField("Name1").required = event.value!="";
this.getField("Address1").required = event.value!="";

Data in one field requires data in another field

I am trying to build a form that forces data entry (text)
into a field if a previous ( or other ) field has data in it.
Example: If there is data in the "Full Name" block, you have
to put data in the "Crew Name" block.
If the "Crew Name" block contains data, all is fine,
otherwise an error message is created.
Also, how do I validate this ( is it even required ? )
Thanks ! ~The Noob~

Are you saying that "Full Name" is not required? But if there
is data in
the "Full Name" field, then "Crew Name" is required?

Report field link based on another field value...

Hi.
Got another Q. I have a report with two columns A & B. Column B value is a link. Is it possible to show column B as a link only when column A <> value, and when A = value B shows just text N/A
Thnks.
Mike

Yes, it's possible. One way (probably not the only way) is to use a case or decode in your select statement. If A<>value, then have case/decode generate the link, otherwise have it generate the text.
Then, in your report attributes for that column, just leave it as a regular column. I.E., don't use the built-in column link feature. That feature makes all entries in that column into a link.

Prompts and Multi-Select Picklists

Hi all,
I'm trying to find a neat way of prompting and doing a "contains any" filter a report i have on a multi select picklist within accounts.
e.g. Field can have values A, B, C
Account 1: A
Account 2: A, B
Account 3: B, C
Account 4: A, C
Account 5: A, B
I wanted a report to give me anything with A or C in it... should bring back 1,3,4,5
I used a dashboard prompt as i like the look of the Multi-Select box used. The problem used was that when i first ran it the options I was given were:
A
A,B
B,C
A,C
Basically listing the different combinations possible... but i just want the list to say A, B,C. So i tried to put this SQL query on the values:
+'SELECT "- Custom MSP_1 (Account)".MSPICK_01 FROM "Account Analysis" WHERE "- Custom MSP_1 (Account)".MSPICK_01 NOT LIKE '%,%' '+
The problem is that it (correctly) only bring back the values that occur on their own... so only "A"!
Any way for me have it pull back just the values defined in the picklist under app customisation?
Feel like i rambled on but hopefully it makes sense!
Thanks,
Alex

I can see what you are trying to get at, but I wonder if it will work.
Even if you somehow get A,B,C as individual values in the prompt then how is it going to filter the report.
Lets say on the dashboard prompt you select B then as per your example your report should show Account 2,3,5.
But it wont because the field that you have used in your report doesn't contain B as a standalone. The values that it contain say A,B or B,C is one string or one entity.
So the multi-select prompt based on that field is going to show the values contained in that field which is what you are initially getting.
You will have to do something in the report itself to break it down so that you get A,B,C as single entity.
I have a vague idea but I wonder if it works. You can still try though :)
Assuming your report is a single criteria report, pull any field and edit its Fx as follows:
CASE WHEN - Custom MSP_1 (Account)".MSPICK_01 LIKE '%A%' THEN 'A' WHEN - Custom MSP_1 (Account)".MSPICK_01 LIKE '%B%' THEN 'B' WHEN ... ELSE NULL END
Assuming here that you only have values like A,B,C.
So what I am hoping is that the custom field that we created will have values like A,B,C as separate entities and in the table view for your example we will have 9 rows.
Account MSPICK Custom Field
Acc 1 A A
Acc 2 A,B A
Acc 2 A,B B
Acc 3 B,C B
Acc 3 B,C C
and so on
Finally in your prompt design, take any field and modify its Fx like the CASE WHEN condition described above and that should give you A,B,C as you want it.
Also you may hide the custom field in your final report.

How to query on a Multi-Select Picklist?

With the Oracle Web Service, I'm having trouble trying to figure out why I am unable to query for a Lead using only a Custom MultiSelect Picklist that I have.
The Multi-Select Picklist has 3 values:
- Picklist 1 (ID: <No Values>)
- Picklist 2 (ID: Picklist 2)
- Picklist 3 (ID: Picklist 3)
I have leads with selected values
- Picklist 3
- Picklist 2 and Picklist 3
Whether I query for any leads with a single value or multiple values, I'm getting nothing in return.
~= 'Picklist 3' (Returned Nothing but results do exist in the CRM UI)
~= 'Picklist 2;Picklist 3' (Returned Nothing but results do exist in the CRM UI)
~= 'Picklist 2,Picklist 3' (Returned Nothing but results do exist in the CRM UI)
When I query using LIKE though, I get results....one of the results being a lead with just "Picklist 3" as the value for the Multi Select Picklist
~LIKE '*Picklist 3*' (25 Leads are returned with values of both Picklist 3 and Picklist 2, Picklist 3)
And as a side note, I'm able to successfully insert/update values into this Multi select picklist as
Picklist 2;Picklist 3
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Kishore
Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, I have already specified the fields I do want returned...I just didn't post them as they are irrelevant to my question. What my question is attempting to say is that if I were to run my actual query on a database the query would look like this:
select LeadEmail from Lead where CustomMultiPicklist1 = 'Picklist 3' (Using the API: ~= 'Picklist 3')
This returns 0 results even though I have a Lead with CustomMultiPicklist1 = 'Picklist 3'
On the other hand if I were to do the following query....results are returned.
select LeadEmail from Lead where CustomMultiPicklist1 like '%Picklist 3%' (Using the API: ~LIKE '*Picklist 3*')
So pretty much I'm trying to figure out what the correct syntax is for querying CustomMultiSelectPicklists only.
Thanks

Form Personalization - Make field required based on LOV selection

Newbie here.
I am trying to make a field required based on the selection of the LOV that is next to it. Having a heck of a time with it.
The form i am working on is the Sub Invenntory form that you get to via Organization Items. We want the subinvnetory field to be manditory when subinv is selected from the LOV in the sources tab.
here is what i have so far:
CONDITION
Trigger Event: WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD
Trigger Obj: ITEM_SUBINVENTORIES
Condition: ${item.item_subinventories.SOURCE_TYPE.value} = 3
Action
Type: Property
Object Type: Item
Target Object: ITEM_SUBINVENTORIES.SOURCE_SUBINVENTORY
Property Name: REQUIRED
Value: TRUE
The problem seems to be that i can't get the field to be required. It shows up yellow but still allows me to save w/ the field being blank.

I do not know about the particular form that you are trying to personalize, but whenever I have created a condition, it has usually been in the following syntax:
:BLOCK_NAME.FIELD_NAME = 'VALUE'
For example, :MTL_SYSTEM_ITEMS.PRIMARY_UNIT_OF_MEASURE_MIR = 'SEAT'
Yours seems to be very much different from mine, but then again, I am not technical so I cannot comment intelligently on that aspect.
May be that is the problem.
Also, once you get it to work, you might want to also add a condition where the field is turned to un-required when the SOURCE_TYPE is NOT 3.

Workflow on Multi-Select Picklist

Afternoon,
I am trying to create and display values on a Multi-Select Picklist through workflow on an email notification upon a SR being created and saved.
Basically i am trying to create an email notification to be generated when a service request is created and saved that will display what values were selected in a multi-select picklist.
I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue or know how this can be resolved. Of course this was a newly created field and i left it over the weekend to create and allow for reporting.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Mani, that is correct. Workflow currently does not support multi-select picklist fields.

Can multi-select picklist be used in Expression Builder?

Does CRMOD allow the use of multi-slect picklist in Expression Builder within workflow?

Thanks Suddu your process worked. This can be done it is just a little more manual than being able to select the field from the drop down list.
To do this go to Admin, Application Customization, choose your record type, then Field Setup. Click on Rename Fields, then Advanced and copy the multi-select picklist field. Paste it into expression builder and at the end of the name add _ITAG. You will also need to add the brackets as well. Doing this will allow you to use a mspl in expression builder.
