Infopath does not default yes/no field value.

More infopath issues.
I have 2 yes/no fields in a SharePoint list.  In infopath, the fields are defined to default to FALSE.  When i attempt to add a new row or edit an existing row, infopath throws an error 
The form cannot be submitted because it contains validation errors.
So basically, Infopath does not default the value as defined in the form, and then throws an error because it didn't default it.  I tried setting the value in the form in a rule if it's not TRUE or FALSE but this also does not work.  Tried setting
the value to "false" also but again, it does not execute the rule as instructed.  The error says only "true" or "false" are permitted but infopath provides "TRUE" and "FALSE" as the options on the box. 
Infopath needs to decide on what it wants! 
In addition, Infopath changed the definition of my field to default to "YES" when I had it defaulting to "NO". 
I think the problem is that infopath has the wrong idea.  SharePoint uses "YES/NO" as values while infopath thinks YES=TRUE and NO=FALSE.  Pretty stupid eh.
One question... IS INFOPATH A RECOMMENDED OPTION FOR SHAREPOINT?????   MY GUESS:  NO WAY!!!  This tool is a complete piece of junk!

Hello Roland and jd,
I've the same issue here with InfoPath 2010 (international version of MS Office Professional Plus Version 14.0.7015.1000 (32-bit) - but set to English language).
The property of a check box only offers (Blank), TRUE, FALSE, 1, 0 for data type "True/False (boolean)".
TRUE and FALSE are not accepted at "Form Submit" - this is due to a built-in check, not a validation rule.
I tried to set the boolean field with a rule to either "true" or "false" just before submit - the rule action dialog does not check the data type like the check box but provides an empty text field. However, this does
NOT solve the issue!!
I can avoid the hassle with a text field which I assign "TRUE" and "FALSE".
The boolean field is not used as SharePoint property, so this is definitly a problem of Infopath 2010.
Any ideas? Suggestions?

  • Error the entered value does not match the specified field type

    Hi,
    When I try to insert a null value to a field of the User Defined Table I am getting the error "The entered value does not match the specified field type" in SAP Business One version 2007 PL 42.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Sudha,
    It probably have to do with how you defined the field.
    Is Null value allowed?
    What are the field definitions?

  • Field ZZBUDAT is delta-relevant, but does not exist in the field list

    Hi All,
    I have created a Generic DataSource on a View.Now there is a situation ,i need to add a Date field form some other table.
    So i have enhanced the datasource now that date is coming in my datasource.
    But when i tried to make delta on that date field its showing error-
    Field ZZBUDAT is delta-relevant, but does not exist in the field list
    Message no. R8279
    Diagnosis
    The DataSource uses field ZZBUDAT for specifying the delta. In the DataSource field list, however, the field does not occur
    Now how i can make this field dalta relevant?
    Thanks,
    Piyush

    Piyush,
    I think the message in SAP is quite clear....
    If the field ZZBUDAT does not exist in the view ... how do you expect the datasource to know which records have changed...?
    The delta relevant field SHOULD be in the view - else there is no way the extractor can identify the changed records ...
    Please remember that the Generic extractor is a simple select statement with a where clause on the delta relevant field and nothing else ... if you want the changed on field to come from another table - then you need to write a function module extractor to do this...
    The order of processing is that - the view fields are processed first - then the enhanced fields are processed followed by the user exits...

  • HS.EXP does not take into account the Value member and the source

    Hello,
    The formula is put in the "Entity Curr Adjs" part of the Sub Calculate.
    The expression is the following and apply for one entity (Holding method) I filtered previously and the ICP Entity has proportionnal method with 50% rate:
    HS.Exp "A#5420.I#[ICP None].C1#REC.C2#[None].C3#[None].C4#Recla_IAS_Aut_RetS_5=
    A#5340.V#[Contribution].E#Logista_E_TBCO.I#UTE_O.C1#CLO.C2#TotC2.C3#TotC3.C4#TotC4"
    The data I would like to retrieve is the one in Contribution Value as I put on the source part of the expression.
    And yet, the data I get is the one of the Entity Currency and Proportion Value, which is different because the ICP has proportionnal method (50%) and the Contribution value is the result of Proportion - Elimination values.
    To sum up: I obtain a data of 50 instead of 25.
    I checked that the data I see in my form corresponds to the source parameters but it seems that it does not take into account the Value parameter.
    Could it be that it is not possible to use a Contribution Value source for an Entity Currency Adjs destination?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Julien

    Hi,
    I see another problem in what you're trying to do. First, let me state what you're trying to establish: you are trying to get a value from one entity (say A) to another entity (say B), be it at [Proportion], [Elimination], [Contribution], ...
    My question is: how can you know that during the consolidation process, by the time your code runs on B, A has already been processed and [Proportion], [Elimination] are not empty (or contain values from a previous consolidation run)?
    The answer is "You don't". Theoretically, you have no control as per the order in which entities are calculated/consolidated during the process. Even more complex is the thing that if you have a multi-core machine, more than one entities may run in parallel, but still you cannot force A to run before B. I have done some tests and I've seen that in a one processor setting the order that entities enter in the process of consolidation matches the order you have placed them in the consolidation tree in metadata. Still this thing is not documented as far as I know and therefore you cannot rely on this.
    Finally, I have also seen that in a simple case (B pulls from A), if you run consolidation twice, then you definitely get correct values. By the time you make a change in A, you have to run consolidation twice again to make sure that you get the correct data. I believe that you see that what I'm describing is good for experimenting but not for releasing to a client.
    I tend to think of such a design, as a practice to avoid.

  • Field catalog does not agree with the fields of the functional area

    G'day everyone,
    I am using a generic extractor via infoset to extract data from R/3 source system.
    Using RSA3, I have obtained an error message and no further details.

    Anyone knows how to get more details for this type of error? Or how to fix this problem?

  • Cascading LOV does not work when setting the value of the parent LOV with DA

    Hello All,
    Using APEX 4.2.2.
    I have tow LOVs
    Parent LOV item is: P50_TYPE
    Child LOV item is :  P50_PROJECT_ID
    In other words in the attributes of the item P50_PROJECT_ID we have :

    I use DA that execute JS code to set the value of the P50_TYPE item
    something similar to:
    > $('#P50_TYPE').val(2);
    Having done this, the P50_PROJECT_ID item does not get refreshed, when the value of P50_TYPE is changed. Namely, P50_PROJECT_ID remains empty, unless end user manually changes the value of P50_TYPE.

    Hi Manish,
    Thanks for the prompt reply.
    I have defined  locations in the extended attribute section of the Org strcutre and also marked  as default.
    The user can  also set his default plant by going in 'Settings' when user is logged into web end of SRM.
    Basically the problem has 2 sides:
    1.No default value comes for the LOCATION field.
    2.Although I can see the F4 list ,but when i select an entry for the LOCATION,the value doesnt get populated.

  • Error Message - Value Entered Does Not Match Format of Field

    I keep getting an error message in Adobe Pro X: "The value entered does not match the format of the field [JF13]".
    I have JF13 programmed as follows:
    On Calculate tab:
    if(Number(this.getField("ck4").value) > 0) this.getField("JF13").value = Number(this.getField("FL019").value); else this.getField("JF13").value = " ";
    It is programmed this way so if the user checks the check box before the field, only then will JF13 populate a value, which pulls from FL019. I also have the settings set to "number" because the data needs to display as a dollar amount $xxx.xx.
    FL019 is a hidden field on the form which pulls a dollar amount from a Mainframe, and its settings are also set to "Number" :
    I get four pop up windows with the above mentioned error message, and the only way to make the message stop is to remove the "number" format from the fields. However, when this is done, if any number which ends in a zero is entered, it cuts off the zero. This is not acceptable either.
    Is there some sort of script I could add or some other way to prevent both the error message and the cutting off of the zero on JF13?
    I am not very proficient with javascript, so any assistance would be appreciated!

    Thank you so much for your response!!
    Forgive me for my lack of knowledge - but where exactly would I add that in the script?
    I tried it like this:
    if(Number(this.getField("ck4").value) > 0) this.getField("JF13").value = Number(this.getField("FL019").value); else this.getField("JF13").value = ""(empty string);
    And I got an error saying I was missing a parenthesis. Should it go somewhere else or am I completely off?

  • R12 OM Copy does not navigate to required field when OK button is clicked

    We are upgrading from 11.5.10 to 12.1.3.
    When a user is copying a Sales Order to a Return in 11i and the user leaves the return reason blank, the form will navigate to the return reason and raise ORA-40202 Field must be Entered.
    In R12, the navigation to the required field does not happen. The ORA-420202 is still raised, but the user must click through the tabs to find the return reason.
    I have examined OEORDCPY.pll and found the procedure OE_ORDER_COPY_WINDOW.action_ok, which is called when the user clicks on the OK button.
    The code below is from R12. Only the section for bug 4879216 is new since 11i. It is clear that the intent is for the form to navigate to the line type or return reason when they are missing (null, required, and enabled).
    I have attempted to use forms personalization to navigate to the return reason, when it is missing. However, I could not get the desired result using when-new-item-instance or when-button-pressed as the trigger. Anyone have any suggesstions to correct this change in behaviour?

    Jenson,
    Those fields must be provided to the BUPA_ADDRESS_CHANGE function module.  This function module does not provide any defaults of information and is at a very low level in comparison to the maintenance screens which call the module.
