Link Of a Standard Form to a Custom Form --- Urgent !!

We are in apps version 11.5.10.2. The Client has custom payslip form suited to their requirement. Now they want a little enhancement feature in the Custom Form.
The custom pay slip form can be queried by employee number. From then you can get the appropriate payperiod where you can navigate to any of the pay periods and view the payslip for that period.
Now they want to add a button to the custom form so that on the click of the button the element entries form for the respective pay period is opened. Now we have added a button and gave the reference to the standard form. We do not know exactly how to reference the exact period entries and for the same employee number. Currently it is poping a find window asking the employee number.
Form gurus...please throw ur light on this ...awaiting ur replies and suggestions.

do they want to see the element entry form (so Read Only), or do they want to kick off transactions into that element entry form?
When Read Only, you can use also the Element History folder, or a custom subform, based on the element entries view.
If not, you have to rework your original custom form, so that she is TaskFlow compatible, and then inheritance should take place by itself.

Can we enter data in any standard table directly through custom form??

Hi,
Can we enter data in any standard table directly through custom form??
I have create custom form in R.12. I want to insert data in quality standard table directly through custom form. Need experts guideline.
Awaiting regards,
I would not recommend touching the standard tables at all unless you are being guided by the SR. For a record to be in the standard table it should go through series of validations based on the what operation you are performing and some times datas are dependent upon the other tables, and also some times the same records are hit to so many other tables simultaneously.
Therefore I would not recommend this brother.

Form Personalization: Calling custom form

Hi Folks,
I need to call a custom form from a seeded form using "Tools" menu and also need to pass parameter.
Here I was able to achieve this using "SPECIAL 1" from personalization, but the problem here is I was not able to pass parameter from seeded form to my custom form. version of EBS is R12
Would be vey greatful if someone could help me on same.
Thanks,
gvk
Edited by: gvk on Mar 13, 2011 11:53 PM

You can pass the parameter only if the called form accepts a parameter.
If it does, you define a global variable and use it on the called form.
The following link gives a great example of passing vendor_id.

To replace standard smartform by a custom form, to be used in PRINT PREVIEW

Hi,
I have a requirement in CRM 2007 webUI. If we try to create a sales order, then we have a toolbar option button with title "PRINT PREVIEW". It uses the custom smart form "CRM_ORDER_CONFIRMATION_01.
I have to replace this standard form by a Z custom form. This form has soem additional data required for business needs.
Field technical details of the button is :
1. Component Name- BT115H_SLSO
2. View - SOHOverview
3. Context Node - THTMLB
4. Attribute- BUTTON_8
5. Role key - BP_POW_USR
6. Comp. Usage - CUBT Sales Order
7. Object Type - BT115_SLSO
Please reply as soon as possible.

To figure this out you need to do the following:
First determine the action profile for the transaction in question in the IMG.
CRM->Transactions->Basic Settings->Define Transaction Types
Display the detials of the transaction and you will see the action profile. Next copy that action profile by using transaction SPPFCADM. Then in the action defintion for the print action, replace the standard smartform definition with your z-form.
Finally go back into the transaction definition and assign the z-profile to your transaction type. Please note you should only do this with "z-transactions".
I'm not going to go into further detail as this is basic CRM configuration and is valid for all releases. Please look at the best practices guides, or do a search in the CRM General and Framework forum for further information on how to do the configuration steps.
Take care,
Stephen

Enabling eRecord for standard WIPMOVE in the custom form using wip interfac

Hi,
Anyone know how to trigger the eRecord for the standard WIPMOVE transaction in the custom form using WIP Interface (wip_move_txn_interface & wip_movproc_pub.processinterface).
I have done all the necessary setting and eRecords is getting generated in the standard out of box form. But when i call the same WIPMOVE transaction through a custom form using WIP Interface it is not generating eRecord.
As suggested by cookbook I tried EDR_ERES_EVENT_PUB.RAISE_ERES_EVENT, ERES.PERFORM_TRANSACTION, nothing is working out.
Any suggestion ?
Thanks,
Senthil

Hello,

Getting data into a standard eBS form from a custom form

To automatically enter (existing) customer information into a standard eBS form, we've created a custom query forms. This form queries for a customer and places the customer information into some global variables. This works fine.
Now, this query forms gets called using the zoom button of eBS.
First, the custom form got called with call_form. This worked, but after returning from the queryform, the toolbar was not as it was (missing some extra buttons, ect).
We fixed this issue by using (as stated in the developer guide) fnd_function.execute. This restored the correct toolbar, but no data gets returned into the eBS form. With some testing, it seems our custom code in the custom.pll stops working after the call to fnd_function.execute. When I diagnose the global values, they contain the right information. Can somebody suggest a way to let our custom code continue with processing after a call to fnd_function.execute?

Is there somebody with some insights into this problem?

You can use a timer in your when-validate-item trigger. In the when-timer-expire trigger you can call the procedure open_form

Calling Custom Form from Another Form

Hi All,
I have created a Custom form using TEMPLATE.fmb and created functions in Apps and assigned to Responsibility etc and it all works OK.
Now, I need to call this Custom form from another seeded(PO form) Via Tools -> Menu.
using Forms personalization I can get the Menu Entry and Actions to execute the Form successfully from the PO Form.
BUT, I need it to automatically query records in my CUSTOM form based on my current PO_HEADER_ID value on my PO Form.
How can I do it ?
Do I need to modify my Block and add some parameters and then pass a value via Personalization ?
Please help !
Thanks
Shankar

Hi ,
I found similiar solution on another forum as below.
http://it.toolbox.com/blogs/apps-traction-blog/how-to-create-a-zoom-using-oracle-form-personalization-12081
This works fine for the Purchasing form and allows me to zoom to the Supplier form.
But in my case, I want to zoom from the Supplier Form to my CUSTOM form. I replicated the exact steps as per the link.
However, it does NOT work as expected. It gets up to the ENTER QUERY mode in my CUSTOM form and remains in Enter Query mode. If I manually then Press key F11 to execute the query it brings back all records.
Do I need to do anything special in my CUSTOM form to make it behave in a similiar way to the Supplier Form ?
Thanks

I have a requirement of building a custom form and to display it under LEASE -- > TOOLS.
I could register the form under a menu by the following steps:
1. Application Developer --> Forms : Enter the custom form name
2. Register a new form function
3. Attaching the form function under a menu
How do I register this form under Lease--> Tools?
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
I could register the form under a menu by the following steps:
How do I register this form under Lease--> Tools?I believe you could follow the same steps but attach the form function to the submenu (instead of the menu itself).
From the Application > Menu, query the main menu to get the submenu, then query the sub-menu and attach the form function.

Custom Form

Hi,
I am getting Lot Details, On hand details, Reservation and Part details in a flat file along with an attachment at lot level. The attachment may be PDF, word format or any other format. Now I need to store the details in a custom table and show that in a custom form. The custom form will have Item number, Lot number and On hand. When the user queries by Item number, he should be able to see the attachment.
The Lot details, on hand details and Reservation details are interfaced using open interfaces.But can any one tell me how I will handle this attachment and show that in the custom form? I find this so complex.
Thanks in advance

No standard message displayed in the new custom form

Hi All,
I developed a new custom form for FA module using Template.fmb. It is not showing any standard messages such as "Transaction complete: 1 records applied and saved". The records are getting saved. I even tried setting in when-new-form-instance ":SYSTEM.MESSAGE_LEVEL := 0" but that too didn't work out.
Please help on how to display the standard message. Please let me know if I am not clear with my question
Details
Oracle Form version: 6i
Application version: 11.5.10

Can you see if something in the code is overriding your message level?
Can you set the message level to 0 in the pre-commit trigger?
