How to show description instead of code on a view page?

I'm new so this is probably basic, but I didn't find an answer when I tried searching.
I'm using JDeveloper 10.1.3.3, ADF Business Components, ADF Faces.
In my application, I have both view pages and edit pages (some users will only have read access). Many of the fields will be populated from LOV and the code will be stored in the database.
The edit page is no problem - I have read-only VO for the LOV and I use af:selectOneChoice and display the description. But how do I display the same description on the view page? By defaiult the code is displayed when the entity based VO is dropped as a ADF Read Only Form.
I assume I need to do something in the BC, but I'm not sure how to get values from read-only VO into my entity based VO. Or do I have to make all my VO for LOVs entity based even though they will never be edited? Or is there something I can do in the view to get the description instead of the code?
Thank you for your help.

So if I understand you properly, I need to create EOs for all my list of values (which are based on views of Oracle apps tables) and base my VO on those EOs. And then I setup associations between these EOs and the Item EO. Then I include the these EOs in my Items VO and add the description attributes to my list of attributes. I had done this for the list of users, but for the views of Oracle I had just created read only VO. Sounds like that won't work if I want to display the description. I know what to do - I guess I was hoping there was a way to use the read only VO.
Thanks

IOS Remote App: How to show Artists instead of Albums in Genres View?

Hi,
I very frequently use the iOS Remote app on my iPhone to control playback of my iTunes library via my Apple TV and Airport devices.
While I love this app, I find one aspect rather frustrating.
Whenever I go into "Genres" view within the Remote app, it takes me to an Albums view, rather than an Artists view.
For example, if I select "Jazz" as the genre, it shows me a list of Jazz albums, not Jazz artists.
I want to see the list of all Jazz artists, not the list of all Jazz albums.
Is there a way to change this behavior so that I can see Artists within the Genre view, rather than Albums?
Thanks,
Kevin

Yes - this is VERY annoying.
You might be able to downgrade to a previous version IF it's still on your computer:

Object status - Get description instead of code (J_STATUS) for OBJNR

Hi,
I am modifying a report, in which one of the fields on output is "Object status," which is pulled from table "Jest". The field is called "Stat" and pertains to the specific OBJNR (object number.)
However, the status is a code (5 Char) but the user wants to see a description instead. Where can I get the description data for the status from?
Thanks,
John

Hello,
I think you may be talking about the statuses held in tables TJ02T and TJ30T (4.64). If yes, here's how we get to them:
     f_system_status     type j_stsma.
     f_user_status         type j_stsma.
    select single c~txt04
      into (f_system_status)
      from equi as a
      join jest as b
        on bobjnr eq aobjnr
      join tj02t as c
        on cistat eq bstat
     where a~sernr = i_old-sernr and
           a~eqtyp = 'I' and
           not b~inact = 'X' and
           c~istat like 'I%' and
           c~spras = 'EN'.
    select single c~txt04
      into (f_user_status)
      from equi as a
      join jest as b
        on bobjnr eq aobjnr
      join tj30t as c
        on cestat eq bstat
     where a~sernr = i_old-sernr and
           a~eqtyp = 'I' and
           not b~inact = 'X' and
           c~stsma eq 'CPS-DEV1' and
           b~stat like 'E%'.
Hope this helps!

How to show Descriptions of Query on a Web template(statistics)

hi I have created a custom Query which shows data for certain queries running, but the data keeps on showing me technical name of the queries, I want my report to show description so it makes sense to my manager as they donu2019t understand technical names of the queries. I have tried changing them to text, key etc they wont work.
Query is 7.0 web template is 7.0

Amer,
Actually, the way I read these notes, showing the technical name on the query selection screen is the problem (a.k.a., "symptom") that is being addressed, so I am assuming that the "fix" they are implementing is to show the description instead.
Just trying to help...

How to show all the search result in a report page

I have a report page which the user can enter first or last name to find the matched employees. The current report only show maximum of 15 matched results. How to show all of them in one page if more than 15.
Also, the employee name on the report is a link, how to make the link to be conditional. ( I mean it can be a link or not based on another column)
Thanks.
Jen

Hi, you can change the number of rows on the report definition page (15 is the default value)- that's also where you can change pagination and max. number of rows etc.
About the second question - you will have to use Case or Decode in your report query and have the value as link or not based on the condition column, something like:
Select Decode(condition_column, 'link_value', '<a href="f?p=YOUR_APP:PAGE_TO_LINK_TO:' || :SESSION || ':::::">display_column</a>' , display_column) From .....

How to Show Different set of Blob images in every page

Hi i am using Crystal Report Server XI RAS Embedded Edition to built Dynamic Reports.
Now i have two datasets

2. list of image blobs.
this two datasets are linked with imageid field and binded to ReportClientDocument.
i have to show different image fields in every page of the report. this images are differ in width and heights.
i am able to show a single constant image field object from blob database field.
but i could not able to find the solution to show different set of multiple images in different pages of the report.
is there any formulas can be written or kindy give me a solution to achieve this.

How do i show descriptions instead of dimension values at presentations ?

We are facing a problem that could be a BIBeans problem or could be an OLAP problem, please inform if to change forum:
We are using jdev 903/BIB903 accessing an AW created at Oracle OLAP 9205 with AWM.
All our dimensions were created at OWB 10g and deployed to RDBMS following the general rules below:
DIM X
ID_X - sequence primary key
CD_X - original key from source systems
DS_X, NM_X, and so on - description fields and hierarchy fields related to this record.
i.e.:
SQL> desc dim_rota
Name Null? Type
ID_ROTA NOT NULL NUMBER(6)
CD_EMPRESA NOT NULL NUMBER(2)
CD_FILIAL NOT NULL NUMBER(2)
CD_ROTA NOT NULL VARCHAR2(3)
NM_FILIAL NOT NULL VARCHAR2(40)
NM_ROTA NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30)
CD_SETOR NOT NULL VARCHAR2(1)
ID_SETOR NOT NULL NUMBER(6)
NM_SETOR NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30)
this dimension has 1 hierarchy with 2 levels called SETOR and ROTA.
when we generated the AW using AWM, each field (except ID) is created as a variable dimensioned by DIM_ROTA, as shown below:
->listby dim_rota
35 objects dimensioned by or related to DIM_ROTA in analytic workspace AW1
DIM_ROTA_CD_EMPRESA
DIM_ROTA_CD_FILIAL
DIM_ROTA_CD_ROTA
DIM_ROTA_CD_SETOR
DIM_ROTA_CREATEDBY
DIM_ROTA_FAMILYREL
DIM_ROTA_GID
DIM_ROTA_INHIER
DIM_ROTA_LEVELCOLMAP
DIM_ROTA_LEVELREL
DIM_ROTA_NM_FILIAL
DIM_ROTA_NM_ROTA
DIM_ROTA_NM_SETOR
DIM_ROTA_ORDER
DIM_ROTA_PARENTREL
ID field was concatenated with level name to generate the dimension value - so, for the following relational record:
SQL> select id_rota, cd_rota, nm_rota from dim_rota where ID_ROTA = 233;
ID_ROTA CD_ROTA NM_ROTA
233 A99 A99-Consig. Sup. Setor A
we have at multidimensional side:
->LIMIT DIM_ROTA TO 'ROTA.233'
->rpr dim_rota
DIM_ROTA
ROTA.233
->dsc dim_rota_nm_rota
DEFINE DIM_ROTA_NM_ROTA VARIABLE TEXT <DIM_ROTA DIM_ROTA_HIERLIST ALL_LANGUAGES>
LD IMPLEMENTATION NM_ROTA Attribute for DIM_ROTA Dimension
->rpr down dim_rota w 30 dim_rota_nm_rota
ALL_LANGUAGES: AMERICAN_AMERICA
-------DIM_ROTA_NM_ROTA-------
------DIM_ROTA_HIERLIST-------
DIM_ROTA ROTA
ROTA.233 A99-Consig. Sup. Setor A
here comes our question: how do we show at BIBeans designer/presentations the related descriptive fields and NOT the dimension values themselves?
thanks in advance,
Flavio

There a re two additional attributes that need to be mapped within OWB for each dimension:
Long Description - this is used by the presentation beans and query and calc builder to replace the dimension values with more meaningful/end-user friendly descriptions
Short Descriptions - this can be used where the long description is too long for display purposes. In BI Beans 10g Release 2 (due out soon) you will be able to select between long/short descriptions when using many of the new tags.
These new attributes will be automatically picked up by the OLAP Bridge in OWB and automatically added to the OLAP catalog.
Hope this helps

Drilling Down to "friendly" descriptions instead of codes

Hi,
In my dimension I managed to create the drill down functionality user-friendly in most of the cases (replace the code by the description field) but in one specific case the drill down only works correctly when the code is used.
This specific case is a drill down from department - employee - project.
I use the employee's firstname and lastname (a combination of 2 fields) as the logical level key for employee used for drill down, instead of employee_code, the PK logical level key.
In that case I cannot drill further to project. I don't get an error I just get the message my query is too restrictive and returns no rows.
When I only use first name in the logical level key it works.
I tried to create a new logical column being the combination of first & lastname and use this in the logical level key but this didn't work either, the same behaviour occured.
Thanks for any advice how to solve this issue!
Kris
Edited by: Kris Caluwaerts on Apr 3, 2009 3:08 PM

Thanks for your answer.
What I did is the following :
On the level of "Employee" I defined two logical keys.
One begin the PK which contains the code. This one is not checked as "Use for drill down"
A second key is defined on the same level. This one contains first & lastname and for this key the "use for drill down" is checked.
