Issue with setting a default value to a Tabular Form field

Hi -
I'm running into an issue setting the default value of a tabular form column. I'm trying to set the default value to the row number (#rownum#). This used to work in previous versions, but now it's returning 0. Is there a was to set this value in the default value attribute of the field with a substitution string?
Thank you in advance for help!

Share with us what worked in previous versions.

Setting a Default Value within a Tabular Form

Hi All,
Using Apex 2.2.1
Hoping someone can assist. I have the following two scenarios where I would like to set a default value to a column within a tabular form.
Scenario One:
Prior to actually displaying the tabular form on the page, I have a region on this page where I ask the user to select a Application No. first (using a Select List with Submit). Once this item, say P50_APP is set to a value, the Tabular Form region is then presented to the user by where I then allow them to enter certain information required using the 'Add Row' button. One of the columns within this tabular form also represents the Application No.
My questions are:
a) I have made the Application No. within the tabular form as a LOV, so when the user hits the 'Add Row' button, how can I set the initial value to P50_APP value using the 'Default Type and Default' items within the column?
b) Since I am trying to achieve a master-detail type scenario here, if (a) above is not possible, if I hide the Application No. column within the tabular form, how can I set it to P50_APP when the user presses either the 'Add Row' or 'Submit' buttons?
Scenario Two:
Is it possible to pass a value from a tabular form, i.e a column within this tabular form on one page, to another tabular form column on a another page (when the user presses the 'Add Row' button) within the same application?
For example, on page 50 I have the column #APP_NUMBER# passed onto page 60 which is another tabular form that also holds the same column name #APP_NUMBER# , so when the user on page 60 hits the 'Add Row' button, I would like the App Number column default to the one just passed over from page 50.
Is this possible?
Apologies if I am asking the same things in both scenarios - just want to make sure I understand MRUs.
Thanks.
Tony.

Hi Andy,
Thanks for getting back to me but I think you are referencing these default values in the wrong section.
What I am actually trying to set is the value of a column within a tabular form to P50_APP and it seems to me that the only available options for setting default values on a tabular form column are by using:
Default Type: which can be one of:
No Default
Item (application or page item name) or
PL/SQL Expression or Function
and then actual source is set against:
Default:
Unsure as to how to actually set the value of P50_APP which is in session to the individual tabular column mentioned above.
FYI, I have tried selecting for Default Type: Item (application or page item name) and then specifying for Default:&P50_APP. as well as Default Type:PL/SQL Expression or Function and specifying for Default: :P50_APP but to no avail.
Tony.

How to set a default value in the "Our reference"-field in purchse orders?

Hi!
When creating a purchase order the "Our reference"-field in the Communication-tab is empty. Is it possible to configure this so that the field is filled by default with the name of the person who is creating the PO?

Hi,
There is a button named Personal Settings on ME21N screen. Click on that button --> Click on second tab of Default Values --> Click on More fields --> Select Our reference and maintain the default value. This will always come up at the time of creation of PO.
Hope this serves the purpose.
Thanks...

How to set a column value in a tabular form via button

Hi All,
I am using Apex 3.0.1. And to create the form I am using the APEX interface tool
I have tabular updateable report. In the same page I have a LOV field where I can choose some possible results.
I want to have a button so I can select a value in the LOV, take this value and populate the column value to the LOV value for all rows in the tabular form.
The LOV and the buttons are done.. to update the column I tried creating a pl/sql that is executed when the button is pressed and has the following update in a loop for each element:
begin
for i in 1..APEX_APPLICATION.g_f01.count loop
APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02(i) := :P1_MY_LOV_VALUE;
end loop;
commit;
end;
When I press the button, the page refreshes but nothing happens. I don't see any changes in the Values for the column I am trying to update
Thanks

Hi user477501,
If you are doing this after a SUBMIT, then try updating your data table instead of the g_f02 array. When you page is re-rendered, it should re-query your data table.
If you do not want to submit the page, then try your hand at JavaScript.
A good reference for this is Mike Hichwa's article at:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/oracle/06-nov/o66browser.html
Be sure to download the example application, it is very helpful.
I hope this helps.

Can you set default values for person/group picker fields? To current user?

Two-part question/issue . . .
Part 1:
In InfoPath 2013 in use with SharePoint 2013, how do you set a Default Value for Person/Group Picker fields? Other field types like Text Boxes have a Default Value section in the Data tab of Properties. There doesn't appear to be any equivalent for
the Person/Group Picker field type in Properties. I'd like to set a default person for a few fields in a form I've created. Is this possible?
Part 2:
The default user I want to set for one of those Person/Group fields is the "current user." I want a user to log into our SharePoint 2013 intranet, load a new form for edit/creation, and have one of the Person/Group fields in that form to
automatically populate this particular user. Is this possible?

Hi Stephen,
You can auto populate your InfoPath farm with current user Name and all other property that you have in your User profile, you have couple of options.
First you can make a secondary connection in your InfoPath form with user profile and can use the UserProfileService.asmx and call the GetUserProfileByName method. Here is the steps you can follow.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/anneste/archive/2011/11/02/how-to-create-an-infopath-form-to-auto-populate-data-in-sharepoint-2010.aspx
Secondly you can use JQuery and SPServices ,
$().SPServices.SPGetCurrentUser function to populate the values with script to achieve the same in this case you no need to use InfoPath form just create simple text type column in SharePoint
list and auto populate it with getting the current user Name from User Profile here is the scripts
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="../../jQuery%20Libraries/jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="../../jQuery%20Libraries/jquery.SPServices-0.5.4.min.js"></script>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
var userCurrentName = $().SPServices.SPGetCurrentUser({
fieldName: "CurrentUser"
$("input[Title='CurrentUser']").val(userCurrentName);
var userPhone = $().SPServices.SPGetCurrentUser({
fieldName: "WorkPhone"
$("input[Title='Phone']").val(userPhone);
</script>

Tabular Form - Setting a default value just on first row.

Hi all,
how to set a tabular form default value only in the first row?
When I click on "add row" I want the new row have a blank value.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
When you add a new row to the tabular form, any existing rows should be saved to the database. You can, therefore, check for the existence of such records and set the value of a hidden page item accordingly. The default value for a tabular form item can then be based on this hidden item.
This can be done by setting the Source Used to "Always, ..." on the hidden item called, say, P1_DEPTNO_DEFAULT, and the Source to something like:
DECLARE
X NUMBER;
BEGIN
SELECT COUNT(*) INTO X FROM EMP WHERE DEPTNO = :P1_DEPTNO;
IF X > 0 THEN
RETURN '';
ELSE
RETURN :P1_DEPTNO;
END IF;
END;This is a "PL/SQL Function Body" Source Type.
In this example, we are checking if there are any EMP records with a DEPTNO value that matches P1_DEPTNO. If there are, then the tabular form must contain at least one row already, so we return an empty string. If there are no records, the tabular form must be empty, so we return the P1_DEPTNO value.
The Default settings on the DEPTNO column in the tabular form would then be:
Default Type: Item (application or page item name)
Default: P1_DEPTNO_DEFAULT

BC4J,Setting a default Value In a View With Data From An Other View

hi
I'm developping A BC4J. I want to set the default value of a field By counting the number of rows in an other view.
So I want to instanciate the view and execute the sql statement and get the result.
Is that the right manner to do it or not.
can someone help me to do that
cheers
ghassen

There's lots of ways to skin this cat depending upon whether you mean "database view" or "view object" when you say "view", and individual requirements.
Given database views v1 and v2 with a common key between them
select v1.x, count(*) from v1,v2 where v1.key = v2.key group by v1.x;
either in the database view or in expert mode for the view object ( I think it'll take group by, but never done it ). ( assumption is that v1.x is a primary key for v1 )...
Try this from sql*Plus first to get a feel for how this works.
The catch with the above is that it is "static"... if you can ADD rows to v2 in your application... they aren't visible in the count until saved and requeried.
Another way ( I think... hopefully Oracle folk will kibitz... )
Create your own attribute on the view object like "TheOtherCount".
In the view object's RowImpl, find the "getTheOtherCount". Find the count of rows in the second view object or entity object or rowSetInfo through the method of your choice. ( If you've already set up a master detail relationship that is active you can just get the rowcount! ). Refer to earlier postings on how to get the rowcount, or to create a dynamic view query to get the count.
The nice thing is that this should reflect your counts even if the second view has added or removed rows... but will probably move like a snail.
Note that if you have a need where you want the row count updated in a frame for v1 whenever v2 is added to or removed from... well... then you need to set up some sort of event listener to do a redisplay of v1's frame, I'd think? Since the attribute you've created in the view object is not based on an entity object attribute, it has no way to know when it has been "updated" via an additional or removed row from the target.
I'm posting the above because no one has responded yet... it may form a place to start from. And maybe someone in the know will go "No, No, No... KKirk... it doesn't work that way at all!" and fill us in on how this can be accomplished!
Good Luck

Set a default value for a radio button populated with a List of value

Hi,
I am using jdeveloper 11.1.1.3.0. I need to set a default value for a radio button populated with a List of value(Yes/No). Here's the selectonechoice code.
<af:selectOneRadio value="#{bindings.Code.inputValue}"
label="#{bindings.Code.label}"
required="#{bindings.Code.hints.mandatory}"
shortDesc="#{bindings.Code.hints.tooltip}"
id="sor1" autoSubmit="true"
valuePassThru="true" layout="horizontal">
<f:selectItems value="#{bindings.Code.items}" id="si1"/>
</af:selectOneRadio>
I want to have the selectonechoice set to No by default. In the previous versions, I set the default value in the base attribute VO. But it is not working in the new version.
Thanks

Hi,
this should work in JDeveloper 11.1.1.3 the same as in 11.1.1.2. If it doesn't then it is better to file a bug than to work around it

After I add an item including metadata in a List, a Workflow starts to create a Library Folder with rootfolder, subfolder and sub-subfolder names based on the List first three column values.
I like that the unique created library subfolder automatically receives several additional List column values in its Column Default Value with that workflow.
After done, documents added to this subfolder are automatically populated with Metadata from the parent Subfolder.
Workflow standard function can be used to populate the folder Column Value to this but not the Column Default Value.
Does someone has a solution how to set Column
Default Value using a workflow?
I like to use such workflow in Sharepoint 2010.
Thank in advance.

Hi,
I think it cannot be achieved by workflow.

How to set the default value of a database column to NULL

Hello,
I want to set the default value of a column (VARCHAR2(20) to NULL, nut I cannot figure out to do this. I tried the following editing the offline table with JDeveloper:
Default Value : <empty> -> On database NULL
Default Value: '' -> On database ''
When I create a new column, there is no default value on the database side and when I open the tabe properties in the database navigator I can see that the default value is (null). This is what I want to see in the other column as well. I don't know why sometimes a default value is visible on the database side (when generating form offline tables to database tables) and sometimes not.
Perhaps sombody can bring some light in this issue.
Thanks Thomas

Hello Shay,
I have the impression that you don't understand my problem. So here step by step:
1. Create a offline Table TEST with one column TEST: VARCHAR2(20). nullable=true, no default value.
2. Generate the table to the database
3. When you look at the table properties (columns) with the database navigator the following information is displayed (sorry for the formatting):
Column Name | Data Type | Nullable | Data Default | COLUMN ID| Primary Key | COMMENTS
TEST | VARCHAR2(20 BYTE | Yes | (null) | 1 | (null) | (null)
4. Now set the default value for the column TEST in the offline table for example to 'Test'
5. Generate the table to the database.
6. When you have a look at the database table, the default value is now 'Test' (as expected)
7. Now remove the default value of the column TEST in the offline table
8. Generate the table to the database
9. When you have a look at the database table, the default value is now NULL (in uppercase letters without parenthesis)
And this is where the problem starts!
When you generate the table again with the options "Alter/Manual Reconcile" the default value of the column test is considered to be different! But in fact it should'nt be different because nothing has been changed.
Best regards Thomas

Set as default value the Item Category in the Maintenance Order

Hello everyone,
We are trying to find a user exit in order to set as default value the item category in the Maintenance Order once the Material has been introduced (Tag Components).
SAP Customizing let the user set the Item Category automatically per Material Type, but we need to set different Item Categories to materials belonging to the same material type.
We would really appreciate any help relating this issue.
Thank you very much,
Víctor Liedo

Dear Paul,
Thank you very much for your response.
I had already tried customizing mentioned by Pithan, but it did not work because we need to set different Item Categories for Materials with same Material Type.
We have been searching for exits which may let us set Item Category in the Maintenance Order, but it does not seem to be possible.
What you say about adding some custom validation through user exit, not to set item category as default value, but to check if the one entered is valid, sounds the best way of achieving our commitments.
I have tried to look for CNEX0037 & CNEX0038, by using transactions SE37 and SE38, search for programs and functions modules, but it did not work. Could you please tell us what kind of objects are?
Thank you very much in advance.

How to set a default value in a form, for a current record.

Hello,
I have created a form to store the details of an employee, details include employee id, name and lan id. I am wondering if it's possible to set the default value for an e-mail address. The e-mail address would be in the format '[email protected]'. So If I press 'create', I am directed to a form.
In the forename field, if i type 'stewart'
In the surname field, if I type 'Young'
Then in the e-mail field, I should see '[email protected]'
Furthermore, if I change 'stewart' to 'stuart', while still in the form, the e-mail address field is automatically updated to '[email protected]'
Would anyone be able to help with this problem?

Hi,
to do this you need kind of interactivity in your form.
You can achieve this either by:
1) using JavaScript onchange-events on forename and surname items, or
2) use the AJAX Computations option of ApexLib, see: http://www.oracle-and-apex.com/ajax-computations-rich-client-feeling/

How to set a default value for particular field in SRM PO Portal

Dear Gurus,
Im desparetly need a help in web dynpro on how to set a default value for a field(flag) in PO header tab in portal.
My requirement is whenever the user press the edit button in PO screen,automatically a flag field should be set as abap_false.
I dont think this will handle in check badi or change badi. i tried this part in onbuttonpressed overwriteexit in CNR_VIEW views,i can get the function EDIT in debugging mode,but dont know how to proceed further.....
Many of them suggested to go with get attribute and set attribute for changing any particular field in web dynpro,but im not very familiar in using those get and set attributes.I request you people can give me sample code on how to identify my target field in the node and set the values while pressing EDIT Button.
Thanks in advance...
Regards,
Sathish

Dear Laurent,
Thanks for your response,
But i searched in enhancement spot of WD_BADI, but couldnt get the exact way to change the coding,
My real requirement is, that particular flag should be enable and disable dynamically by checking a condition in my header values.So in that case i dont know how to proceed further to handle in the PO screen.
Kinly guide me how to get the particular node of field in the Purchase order screen.
Thanks you in advance,
Sorry for the inconvenience if any
