Mass Update Column In Tabular Form

Hi,
I'm trying to create a tabular form that has a mass update column function. i.e. the tabular form will be displayed as normal but at the top of certain columns will be a text box or lov and what ever is entered into those boxes will be cascaded into the empty values in that column without refreshing the page.
Hope that makes sense.
I've search the forum but cant find reference, is this possible.
Thanks Andy

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone had any thoughts on this.
I can get the text to populate another cell e.g.
http://mlw-mis-2/dev/apex/f?p=174:4
But how can i get it to reference a column, this is what I'm using to reference another item
onKeyUp="f_getTextUpper('P4_COL1','P4_TEXT')"
and I've tried changing the P4_TEXT to other things like
apex_application.g_f03 (vRow)
apex_application.g_f03 (i)
apex_application.g_f03
But with no luck

Ora -20001 error coming while updating from a tabular form

Hi
I have a tabular form , which updates a table in the database.
Whenever I update the record first time I getting an error as
Error in MRU internal routine ORA-20001.Error in MRU:row=1,
ORA-1403 no_data_found, update abc.sale_forcast_temp set "PK_ID"=:b1,"W27"=:b2
Error unable to update process
But when I press Ok return to the form and then again try to update , records gets successfully updated

Kamal,
This will be the pseudocode.
Procedure A()
select * from EMP bulk collect into records_array; --Of type RECORD_ARRAY
batch_count = (records_array.length) / batch_size;
--batch_size is say 5000 rows and batch_count is the number of batches
for i in 1..(batch_count+1)
B( records_array);
C();
commit;
Procedure B(records_array in RECORD_ARRAY )
INSERT /*+PARALLEL(EMP_DUMMY, 2) */
INTO TABLE EMP_DUMMY
SELECT * from TABLE(CAST(records_array as RECORD_ARRAY) ;
Procedure C()
Other operations which include reads on the EMP_DUMMY table;
This is the top view of how it looks like. Actually the Select statement for the insert statement is very complex and I do a join on the records that are being passed in by casting it into a table. This query is taking about 40 minutes for 10,000 rows in the records_array. I need to parellelise this query because each row of the records_array yields a different row for the EMP_DUMMY table.
I hope that I made it clear for you.
Can you also tell me if procedure C in which I shall be doing a read on the EMP_DUMMY table, has any affect of the parallel insert
Thanks for your help.

Updating on a tabular form

hi, i have two extra column on my tabular form and one say 'UPDATED_BY" and the other says "DATE_UPDATED" i am trying to set the parameters so that every time someone adds a row to that column the system automatically displays the name of the user and the current date and time on the other column, both are read-only columns and i want the data to update on just the new row that was added, how would i go about doing this..

Hi,
The best option, in my opinion, is to use a database trigger.

Updating fields on Tabular Forms created with wizards

I have created a Tabular Form using the creation wizard in version 2.0.
When we update database records, we always place a date and a user ID into the record to track the last time updated.
In HTML-DB I typically create an "After Submit" process called "Set Hidden" which updates my items LAST_UPDATE_DATE and LAST_UPDATED_BY.
This works great on non-Tabular forms when I am dealing with one record at a time.
How do I do this on a multi-row tabular form?
Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry, I assumed a basic familiarity with Oracle and HTML DB development concepts
1. "v" is a HTML DB function to read session state
2. v('APP_USER') will give you the authenticated username of the current session
3. For some reason, if that is blank, the NVL will evaluate to USER which is a builtin Oracle keyword just like SYSDATE. USER evaluates to the userid for the currently connected Oracle user (typically HTMLDB_PUBLIC_USER)
4. FOO is the function which will take the username and convert it to the internal id you seem to want.
5. NVL is a function that evaluates both its arguments and returns the first non-null expression.

How to clear Success Messages on Tabular Form

In my tabular form I created a manual process for Update/Insert I have disabled the standard APPLYMRU process in order to use mine instead. I've done this so that I can set some column values that I don't want the user to enter. This is a Tabular Form type process with Execution Scope set for Created and Modified Rows. The process works fine.
I created 2 hidden page items P20_UPDATE_COUNT and P20_INSERT_COUNT. I use these as counters in the sql to count number of rows updated and inserted. I then use these as substitution variables in the success message. I set the values for P20_UPDATE_COUNT and P20_INSERT_COUNT to zero in the computations: Before Regions and also After Submit computations ( I realize may not need to reset in both). After submit the branch is to the same paqe.
The problem I am having is that the success messages do not get cleared out. If I update one row then click the Submit button row is updated and success message appears 1 row updated, 0 rows inserted - Fine. I then update 2 rows and insert one row and the message appears as: 1 row updated, 0 rows inserted. 2 rows updated 1 row inserted. It seems the messages keep getting appended to the previous message if they are different. This does not occur if I use the standard APPLYMRU process. Is there a way to clear the prior messages? Note; this is happening in my application on the Oracle Apex site so the version is current version.
Thanks for any help!

Hi Therese,
Not sure what is going wrong, but I remember I at one point had to make custom success messages. There is a function that lets you print the message yourself:
apex_application.g_print_success_message
I don't think there is any oracle documentation on it, but here's an old blog post that explains how you can use it:
Using individual error/success messages in APEX - APEX-AT-WORK by Tobias Arnhold</title><meta content='text/htm…
You can use it to overwrite/bypass the standard success messages.

How to fetch the value of tabular form item in javascript

Hello all
I want to do some calculations on the value entered by the user in the textfield of a tabular form, how can I fetch the value of tabular form item in the javascript?
I am using normal tabular form, not using apex_item tabular form.
I can pass the current textfield value to the function using "this" as a parameter, but how can I fetch the value of other rows of that same column?
Thanks

Hi Alistair
jQuery is still not working, but I got it done through some other means, this is the code:
function total(pThis){
var l_Row = html_CascadeUpTill(pThis,'TR');
var l_Table = l_Row.parentNode;
var l_Row_next = l_Row;
var n_rows = l_Table.rows;
var lInputs;
var v1;
var sum = 0.0;
var temp;
var i = 0;
var j = 0;
//alert(n_rows.length);
while(j < (n_rows.length - 1))
temp = 0;
if(l_Row_next != null){
lInputs = html_Return_Form_Items(l_Row_next,'TEXT');
v1 = lInputs[0].value;
//alert(v1);
sum = parseFloat(sum) + parseFloat(v1);
l_Row_next = l_Row_next.nextSibling;
temp = 1;
if(temp == 0){
l_Row_next = l_Table.getElementsByTagName('TR')[1];
lInputs = html_Return_Form_Items(l_Row_next,'TEXT');
v1 = lInputs[0].value;
sum = parseFloat(sum) + parseFloat(v1);
l_Row_next = l_Row_next.nextSibling;
j= j+1;
$x('P78_TOTAL').value= parseFloat(sum);
I am calling this function onblur event of the textfield.
Still I am having one problem, I want to perform this calculation on load of the page also, how can I do that? because while calling onblur of the textfield I can pass that textfield to this function but on onLoad how I will pass the textfield to call this function so that I will be able to get the textfield value in the function?
there may be some rows already existing, so I want the total of the existing rows to be displayed in my P78_TOTAL textfield that is why I need to do this calculation on onLoad of the page.
Thanks

Edit the report page > Report Attributes > Change the report template for different look and feel
You can also customize the report template or even create your own template

Unable to Update Collection from Tabular Form

I have built several Tabular Forms where I have updated the apex_collection with the data entered into the form. Then I loop thru the collection and update the database.
I now Copy a working form to create a new form using data from a different table. All I am doing is changing the underly apec_collection with a different select statement and give it a new collection name. The number of columns on the tabular form are the same as the working form.
Now I run the form and I get ORA-01403: no data found Error UNABLE to UPDATE ROWS
It is acting like it is not finding any data from the collection. But I put in the same selection critera for the update into a report below the tabular form and I see data just fine.
Here is the code I am using to update the collection when the SAVE button is pressed (Process on Submit before Calculations).
begin
for c1 in (
select seq_id from apex_collections
where collection_name = 'IPR_MATRIX' and c001 = :P21_FACILITY
and c002 = :P21_DEPT
order by seq_id) loop
c := c+1;
apex_collection.update_member_attribute (p_collection_name=> 'IPR_MATRIX',
p_seq=> c1.seq_id,p_attr_number =>5,p_attr_value=>wwv_flow.g_f01(c));
apex_collection.update_member_attribute (p_collection_name=> 'IPR_MATRIX',
p_seq=> c1.seq_id,p_attr_number =>6,p_attr_value=>wwv_flow.g_f02(c));
apex_collection.update_member_attribute (p_collection_name=> 'IPR_MATRIX',
p_seq=> c1.seq_id,p_attr_number =>7,p_attr_value=>wwv_flow.g_f03(c));
apex_collection.update_member_attribute (p_collection_name=> 'IPR_MATRIX',
p_seq=> c1.seq_id,p_attr_number =>8,p_attr_value=>wwv_flow.g_f04(c));
apex_collection.update_member_attribute (p_collection_name=> 'IPR_MATRIX',
p_seq=> c1.seq_id,p_attr_number =>9,p_attr_value=>wwv_flow.g_f05(c));
apex_collection.update_member_attribute (p_collection_name=> 'IPR_MATRIX',
p_seq=> c1.seq_id,p_attr_number =>10,p_attr_value=>wwv_flow.g_f06(c));
apex_collection.update_member_attribute (p_collection_name=> 'IPR_MATRIX',
p_seq=> c1.seq_id,p_attr_number =>11,p_attr_value=>wwv_flow.g_f07(c));
apex_collection.update_member_attribute (p_collection_name=> 'IPR_MATRIX',
p_seq=> c1.seq_id,p_attr_number =>12,p_attr_value=>wwv_flow.g_f08(c));
apex_collection.update_member_attribute (p_collection_name=> 'IPR_MATRIX',
p_seq=> c1.seq_id,p_attr_number =>13,p_attr_value=>wwv_flow.g_f09(c));
apex_collection.update_member_attribute (p_collection_name=> 'IPR_MATRIX',
p_seq=> c1.seq_id,p_attr_number =>14,p_attr_value=>wwv_flow.g_f10(c));
apex_collection.update_member_attribute (p_collection_name=> 'IPR_MATRIX',
p_seq=> c1.seq_id,p_attr_number =>15,p_attr_value=>wwv_flow.g_f11(c));
apex_collection.update_member_attribute (p_collection_name=> 'IPR_MATRIX',
p_seq=> c1.seq_id,p_attr_number =>16,p_attr_value=>wwv_flow.g_f12(c));
end loop;
end;
Any Ideas what I am doing wrong?

c is set to 0
It looks like I may have found my problem.
There tabular form is limited by a where clause in the report to a subset of the collection. Making the collection match the same where clause seems to have fixed my problem.
Not clear on why that works like that but it looks like I may have it working.

How to use SQL function in Tabular Form

Edited by: JuniorNewbi on 03-Nov-2009 08:15

Hi
I want to have a Tabular Form in which the Report Source sql statement is retrieved via an SQL function, so that the resulting report can show a variable number of columns and column names.
The following great web site shows just the kind of thing i'm trying to do (Tabular Form Dynamic):
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:195:518536699796436::NO:::
However, as an Apex newbie, i don't know how to invoke the SQL function from within the page. The "Report Source" appears to only allow a static "select...." style of entry.
I don't have access to the Denes Kubicek's workspace so don't know how he would have invoked his PL/SQL Function.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance!

How to Testrict Maximum Characters in tabular form

How can I restrict user for maximum character length in tabular form ? in master forms we can define maximum character lenght by using option "Maximum width"
Thanks,
Suhaib

Andy,
I've tried to put the following in my "Element Attributes" of a tabular form "text" element:
maxlength="5" onChange....
A test of the tabular form does not restrict character entry to 5 characters. The page source actually shows both maxlength="2000" and maxlength="3' for the input type tag. It looks as if the first maxlength is used and the maxlength that I added is ignored. It's curious that a tabular form element does not have a "maxlength" attribute to set like a non-tabular form "text" element.
Any suggestions on what else to try?
Alex.

How to use a function in Tabular Form?

I'm trying to build a tabular form maunally with a region of type "pl/sql function body returning sql query". The first column is a regular column in the table and in the second column is calculated column, I would like to pass the first column value to the function in second column and display that value. When I use the following query, it's passing "id" literally, instead of the actual value at the run time. any help is appreciated.
declare
query_str varchar2(1000) := NULL;
begin
query_str := 'SELECT HTMLDB_ITEM.DISPLAY_AND_SAVE(1,id)"id" , HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(2, test_function(id),10,100) "Name" from testtable';
return query_str;
end;

Hi,
the query looks ok. What happens when you run the query in SQL*Plus/Toad/... ?
SELECT HTMLDB_ITEM.DISPLAY_AND_SAVE(1,id) AS id, HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(2, test_function(id),10,100) AS name from testtable;Personally I wouldn't use the quote for the alias name of the column, because that makes them case sensitive. I know that the APEX wizard always uses quotes, also for tables/columns where it is not necessary...
