How to update MD in Web-Form

Hello, gurus!
Does anybody know it is possible to update master data in web-form?
I mean, in web-form there is a function which changes texts in characteristic, and I want to update these texts in analysis item in the same form. The only solution I found was reentering in this form. It is very inconvenient.
May be some magic spells exist to refresh MD directly in form?

Hi Pavan,
I am getting PDF form properly in browser with no values in the fields as it should be. And i have provided one User entered field, When user enters sales order number in that field and presses the submit to sap button other fields rerlated with sales order status information should be displayed with the values related with that sales order number. But after pressing Submit to SAP button i didnt get values in other fields.
Method for Submit to SAP button is also called properly. Even i can see the status information in fields outside the PDF form in Browser.
So, parheps i think that whenever PDF form loads first time in browser, at that time it shows the values in the context variable. But after first load nothing is changed in that PDF form evenif the context values are changed.
Is it true?
Regards,
Bhavik

Updating data in Web Forms

Hi,
I would like to know if it's possible to update data in web forms :
* periodically (every 10 seconds for examples)
* from the server (in a trigger or something like that) for all clients connected
Thanks

Taz,
for the first a timer could do that. The second is not possible without having asynchrous message support in Forms. There are plans for such a feature but its not yet implemented

How to retain focus in Web forms 6i item when displaying pdf image

How to retain focus in Web forms 6i item when displaying pdf image in a multi-record block?
Hello.
I have a Web Forms 6i program (version Forms 6.0.8.19.2) running in a 3-tier application. The web form program has a multi-record block containing invoices. When navigating to a record, the form should display the PDF invoice image which is stored in an Oracle 8.1.7 database as a BLOB in another window. When user press down-arrow, the next PDF invoice image should be displayed.
I am able to accomplish the functionality above by using web.show_document('URL', target') in the when-new-record-instance. The URL being called is a PL/SQL Web Toolkit stored procedure using wpg_docload.download_file built-in.
The problem is that the focus is lost on the Webform and the focus is shifted to the PDF image window when you navigate to the next record using down-arrow. I want to retain the focus in the form as this is a data-entry form, the operator will use down-arrow to go to the next-record rather than the mouse. I also only want to do this for this Invoice Entry form and NOT to all forms.
Please advise how to resolve this problem. Thank you.
Regards,
Armando

Magesh,
the issue of a SSO protected form showing the logon dialog is a knwon issue for Windows200 and the Oracle9iAS base release. If you applied Forms Patch 1 then this should be solved. Hope that I am right in that you are using Oracle9iAS and not Oracle9iDS. Do you see the Single Sign-On logon screen or the Forms logon dialog directly? Check the forms90.conf file in teh forms90/server directory as this contains the Form sso settings (mod_osso) which by default is commented out and therefore inactive. You need to remove the commenting '#' characters and make sure that each sentence having a '#' in front, after that starts on a new line.
The Forms deployment documentation within the Oracle9iAS docu provides this information too.

How to simulate DDE in Web Forms?

Surely there is some elegant way to do DDE in a Web Forms (6i)environment?
Given that Forms 7i will only support internet deployment and not C/S, there must be some "migration path" to replace the functionality of DDE in the C/S environment.
My need is a button on a Web Form to dynamically insert data from 8i server into an Excel "template" spreadsheet, then open the spreadsheet on the client. The user can then manipulate data in the spreadsheet. A button in the spreadsheet to synchronize the spreadsheet changes back to the 8i server and exit the spreadsheet and return to the Web Form.
Forms Server 6i is running on Solaris 2.6
Any ideas on techniques to do this?
Can Oracle COM Automation or Oracle Objects for OLE (OO4O) do the dynamic inserting of data into the excel template spreadsheet? (I don't know the difference between these??)
I know web.show_document can be used with a URL to the spreadsheet on the web server (IIS) and the MIME type will launch excel on the client and copy the file to the client.
How then can I get the updated cells back into 8i from the spreadsheet?

How do I access my Web Form Keychain password?

Hello!
I lost the original email containing my password from a web site months ago and need to access the password in the Keychain WEB FORM file.
I dont' need to CHANGE it, I need to see the old one so I can log into the web site again since they changed the site, and the login page is now different with a new URL etc....so the autofill doesn't work.
I'm in Keychain access and I see the event but how do I edit the form so I can see my password?
It's my computer, this shouldn't be so hard to do.
thanks
A

Hey Kappy
thanks.
I jsut found out how to do it.
When I double clicked on the Keychain item, there was a checkbox I didn't see before " show password" I clicked it then entered my system password then it showed it.
thanks!

Unable to update record in web Form

Hi, i am unable to update record in a form. I am building a custom form using forms 6i and putting it on the web in oracle applications 11.5.9
I used template.fmb as a starting point for my form. I have one datablock based on a table. Insert, update and delete properties are set to yes on the property pallete of data block. The table against which i am running the form has a primary key which is a combination of two fields. I am able to update a record with pure SQL running against the table.
My form now brings back a record from the db like it should but whenever I try to update that record either by pressing Action Save or by clicking button that has update statement in it, instead of doing an update, it does an insert and tells me that this record already exists and that i entered value(s) that must be unique for each record. It thinks I want to insert but I want to update. What am i doing wrong???
Update allowed value is set to Yes in all the items in the data block and at the data block level as well. Querly_only is set to no.
What's even more frustratinng is that I've ran the form manually before starting with template.fmb and have been able to update the table but when I put it on the web and used template.fmb it stopped working!
I am very new to forms, can anybody suggest anything? Please help!!!

When you populate the 2nd block with a select into query, it's the same as just typing the data into the block. The record is treated as one needing to be inserted, not as one that is queried.
To populate it using a true query, but with data from the LOV, you can do this:
Programmatically set the default_where clause of the block based on the LOV. For example, if a name is chosen from the LOV in an item called LOV1, you could do:
set_block_property('block2','default_where','name='''||:block1.lov1||'''');
or if the LOV is a number, like a department number:
set_block_property('block2','default_where','deptno='||:block1.lov1);
The tricky part when you build your where clause is that you must surround strings with single quotes, and the way to do this is to use two single quotes to represent an actual single quote in the where clause. Otherwise a single quote is interpreted as part of the PL/SQL syntax.
Then, just navigate to block 2 and execute a query:
go_block('block2');
do_key('execute_query');
I hope this works for you. I didn't have time to test this, so I hope I didn't make any syntax errors when typing.

Update Access to Web forms in Planning

We have issues in all of our Planning applications, all databases on both production and development. We have had the applications in administrator mod since September. We are ready to start testing to prepare for this year's budget cycle. I created a test native user, and granted the appropriate access in Planning and refreshed the security filters. The web form is coming up read only. I looked at the filter in Essbase, and it shows as read access even though Planning has write access. I ran the Planning Access Report through Shared Services, and it shows write access to all of the dimensions to which we have security applied. According to an Oracle analyst who is working on my service request, it is normal for these to go to Essbase as read access, but the user should still be able to update data.
Since we closed the budget cycle in September, no changes to dimension security have been made, so I'm not sure why the access dropped. We tested with an existing account and had the same issue. We are on version 9.3.1. We recently applied patch 9.3.1.1.9. We did not test the web forms after applying this patch. I'm not sure if this could be causing the issues.
Has anyone ever experienced this problem, or have any suggestions?

Hi,
I faced some issue similar to this in past with version 9.2, As iam updating security on planning and it works fine for data forms when i perform security refresh.
but when user access those from excel the filters doesn't get update on EAS filters. after two hours investigation even though i update some filters on planning
side after security refresh it doesn't get affected on essbase filters. the reason when security refresh is done the filters getting in to cache memory and doing nothing on essbase, so work around is to delete one particular filter on essbase and then perform security refresh so that it gets updated.
Let me know if this is helpful and works.
Thanks,
Red

Anyone know how to update page artwork leaving Form Fields where they were?

I set up my form fields just the right way and line them up right over where they are supposed to be, but the client makes a change to the artwork that the forms sit on.
Is there any way to just update the page leaving form fields exactly where they were?
As far as cutting and pasting to th enew pdf, thats too time consuming and there is no paste in place either. So I have to keep tapping them to back to where I put them the first time, but can’t do that every time not to mention it isn’t lockdown accurate and I have to make sure I have all the forms selected. Perhaps there is at least a Paste in Place for Acrobat plug-in somewhere, that would work.

Wow, really? I keep using these links to find the answer to my question and the forum keeps bouncing me back to the forum starting page. Anyone have the current link, or is this just the Adobe server freaking out?

How do i fix the "web form must capture customer name and email address" error?

Hi all,
I have a webform that is submitting securely to the bc servers. I get the response:
{"SystemMessage": { "success": False, "message": "ERROR: An error occurred. Your web form must capture customer name and email address. Please fix this issue and re-insert your web form on your web page." }}
I have verified that the "FirstName","LastName","EmailAddress" are actually gettting sent with their corresponding values. I can't seem to figure out why i keep getting this error. Can someone please lend a helping hand?!? Thanks guys... here's my code:
var rAction = 'https://site.worldsecuresystems.com/FormProcessv2.aspx?WebFormID=85886&OID={module_oid}&OTYPE={module_otype}&EID={module_eid}&CID={module_cid}&CC={module_urlcountryc ode}&Referrer={module_siteurl,true,true}&JSON=1';
var rData = 'FirstName='+escape(fName.val())+'&LastName='+escape(lName.val())+'&EmailAddress='+escape (email.val())+'&Username='+escape(username.val())+'&Password='+escape(passwd.val())+'&Pass wordConfirm='+escape(passwd2.val())+'&BillingAddress='+escape(baddress.val())+'&BillingCit y='+escape(bcity.val())+'&BillingState='+escape(bstate.val())+'&BillingZip='+escape(bzip.v al())+'&PaymentMethodType='+escape(paymentMethodType)+'&CardName='+escape(cName.val())+'&C ardNumber='+escape(cNum.val())+'&CardExpiryMonth='+escape(expMonth)+'&CardExpiryYear='+esc ape(expYear)+'&CardType='+escape(cType)+'&CardCCV='+escape(ccv.val())
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: rAction,
data: rData,
success: function(msg){
console.log('success');
$('#result').html(msg);
error: function(msg){
console.log('error');
$('#result').html(msg);

Ok -- after testing this out a little on my own I think it must have to do with not properly serialzing the data you are passing in the ajax function. In the example I linked to earlier they are just serialzing the form data and it works because it converts the data in the form's input fields to URL encoded notation.
If you aren't using an actual form on your site to mimick the example I linked to then when building your "rData" string instead of using the "escape" function for each of the parameter values, you should be using the "encodeURIComponent" function instead which instead of escaping characters will convert it to URL encoded notation. That's probably your issue. Here's more about encodeURIComponent(): http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_encodeURIComponent.asp
Try this with the rData variable instead:
var rData = 'FirstName='+encodeURIComponent(fName.val())+'&LastName='+encodeURIComponent(lName.val()) +'&EmailAddress='+encodeURIComponent(email.val())+'&Username='+encodeURIComponent(username .val())+'&Password='+encodeURIComponent(passwd.val())+'&PasswordConfirm='+encodeURICompone nt(passwd2.val())+'&BillingAddress='+encodeURIComponent(baddress.val())+'&BillingCity='+en codeURIComponent(bcity.val())+'&BillingState='+encodeURIComponent(bstate.val())+'&BillingZ ip='+encodeURIComponent(bzip.val())+'&PaymentMethodType='+encodeURIComponent(paymentMethod Type)+'&CardName='+encodeURIComponent(cName.val())+'&CardNumber='+encodeURIComponent(cNum. val())+'&CardExpiryMonth='+encodeURIComponent(expMonth)+'&CardExpiryYear='+encodeURICompon ent(expYear)+'&CardType='+encodeURIComponent(cType)+'&CardCCV='+encodeURIComponent(ccv.val ())

How to update session state from form field values without submitting page?

Hi,
I am new to Oracle APEX. I am using Oracle Apex 4.2 on Oracle 11g release 2. The problem is that when I am entering data on a form, when I enter a value in one field and move to the next field, how can I use the value of first field in the validation procedure of next field? I know that when we enter data in fields, the session state is not updated with these values until we submit the page... right... but I have seen that if there is a control of List box type, then Apex gives an option "Action When List changes" where we can choose option to update corresponding session state field with the value of list box item, without submitting the page.
Now my questions is why this option is only available for List box items? why not for other item types like Text box, Check box,... ? can someone please help me with this?
(the issue with update of session state depending on page submitting, is that we need a complete network round trip from client to server in order for it. However if we can update session state variables without submitting page, then we can avoid this network traffic).
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Create a dynamic action on change and run a PL/SQL process there with the following code:
BEGIN
NULL;
END;Page items to submit > your item.
This will set the session state without submitting the form.

How to email data from web form?

I need some direction please. I have created a web page (.htm) that has several textboxes, a submit and clear button. The purpose of this web page is for users of the company intranet to input data into the textboxes and then clicking on Submit will email the data to those responsible for filling the users request. The web page will be served up on the companys intranet using the Apache web server that is running on Solaris 10. It seems to me that I will need an email server, but I do not know what Sun program to install and how to configure it. Thank you for any guidance you can provide.

You need an amp (apache2, mysql, PHP/Python) stack - that's exactly the kind of thing they're for. I have the exact setup you're describing at my job. I set up an intranet server where the secretaries could input client information, and then hit "submit." If they didn't fill out the form correctly, it complains at them and makes them do it over, otherwise it emails the form data to me and I input it in our database.
Php has a mail function that uses the system mailer (most likely sendmail?)

How do I get my Web Form - to look like - Paper Form

I have several fairly complicated forms in PDF and WORD.
I was hoping the acrobat form wizard could convert them and then i could import them to formcentral to be then embedded as html forms on website.
Problem is:
1. imported forms can not be converted into embedded html
2. from reading help, i would have to re-design/author the form from scratch.
Which I am willing to do:
Provided:
1. I can actually create a form that looks like the original online (or similar to)
2. I can then print this as PDF (so that it looks exactly like the original pdf) or that it actually fills the original PDF fields from the original pdf document.
IS THIS POSSIBLE?
put another way..
I want to have a form online that looks like the form on paper.
the client can fill it out.
submit
it sends him a copy of the completed form
it sends us a copy of the complted form
if it needs to be changed, a staff member can edit it.
what do I have to do to achieve this?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR HELP!!!
