LOV to update text field in a form

Hello,
I have a select LOV in a form and a number field (Dep_ID). Based on the selection in the LOV, the number field has to be updated to reflect the value from the LOV.
For example,
LOV: Department, DepartmentID
Upon selecting a department, the dept_id number field on the same page should automatically update according to the departmentid produced by the LOV.
Can you please point in the right direction for how to go about accomplishing this -
Thank you.

Igor:
You could use Javascript to achieve this
In the 'Form Element Attributes' of the LOV field add
onChange='$x("DEP_ID").value=this.value;'

  • Problem with Update Text fields in Infoset

    Hi experts,
    Here i would like to rephrase the question. Normaly while working with Infosets, when press "update text fields" button, those fields having text is updated. But one of my field is not updated. I need some help from you for that.
    One more question i've that my field is having check table so i would like to know how exactly the text field is updated.
    scenario.
    Customized IT9320 has field prt_pos added. This field is having check table T528B. But i want text field to be attached is IT1000-STEXT.
    How this can be done, because i suspect that just using check table field IT1000-STEXT is not attached to IT9320-prt_pos.
    Please help. I'm really got stuck here.
    Thanks a lot,
    Toral.
    Hi,
    I'm working on customised Infotype. I need to add one new customised field ie Present Position. This field has number as well as text associated with it. There is a check table attached with this field so that text can be displayed alongwith number.
    I need this field in SAP/Adhoc query. But when i go to SQ02 this fields shows only value. Text is disabled for this field. I'm not sure why is it so.
    I looked into other infotype which as one field using same data element, and that field shows both value as well as text. Please help me to rectify this issue for present position field.
    Thanks,
    Toral.

    You would be much better off with one multi-line form field.
    There are many problems with trying to determine when one is at the end of the display field with text entry.

  • How can we add Text field on system form which is updateable?

    Hi Experts
    I Want to create text field on System Form like A/R Invoice, in which I can store value after saving the document. I means Updateable field. Is it possible and How?
    Thanks
    Regards
    Gorge

    Hi Gorge,
    Please follow Jeyakanthan instructions. You may know how to create a UDF but you clealy don't understant how they work.
    A UDF in the System document's Title table is always updatable, unless you define it otherwise or do not have permission to update it (Open the form where you created the UDFs and press CTRL + ALT + B to open the definitions form).
    A UDF in the System document's Rows table is always updatable ONLY if that document's rows are updatable AND if you set them as updatable (via Form Settings) and have permission.
    On a User Form, you make your own rules!

  • How does APEX check for null values in Text Fields on the forms?

    Hello all,
    How does APEX check for null values in Text Fields on the forms? This might sound trivial but I have a problem with a PL/SQL Validation that I have written.
    I have one select list (P108_CLUSTER_ID) and one Text field (P108_PRIVATE_IP). I made P108_CLUSTER_ID to return null value when nothing is selected and assumed P108_PRIVATE_IP to return null value too when nothign is entered in the text field.
    All that I need is to validate if P108_PRIVATE_IP is entered when a P108_CLUSTER_ID is selected. i.e it is mandatory to enter Private IP when a cluster is seelcted and following is my Pl/SQL code
    Declare
    v_valid boolean;
    Begin
    IF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NULL THEN
    v_valid := TRUE;
    ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NOT NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NOT NULL THEN
    v_valid := TRUE;
    ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NOT NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NULL THEN
    v_valid := FALSE;
    ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NOT NULL THEN
    v_valid := FALSE;
    END IF;
    return v_valid;
    END;
    My problem is it is returning FALSE for all the cases.It works fine in SQL Command though..When I tried to Debug and use Firebug, I found that Text fields are not stored a null by default but as empty strings "" . Now I tried modifying my PL/SQL to check Private_IP against an empty string. But doesn't help. Can someone please tell me how I need to proceed.
    Thanks

    See SQL report for LIKE SEARCH I have just explained how Select list return value works..

  • Error while updating Date Field on Process Form.

    Hi,
    I am using java code to pre-pop date on the process form.First I used a java code whic took java.sql.date as input and returned the same java.sql.date.But it gave an error that:java.lang.String cannot be converted to java.sql.date.......
    So I changed the java code and now it takes string as input and returns java.sql.date. This code works fine for Pre-pop adapter and the date is populated on the process form.
    But when i use the same code in a Process Task adapter to update the date, then it gives the following error:
    ERROR [ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '0' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)' XELLERATE.ADAPTERS - Class/Method: tcAdpEvent/updateDataSetValuePost encounter some problems: Adapter Execution Error: updateDataObjFieldValuePost: error updating UD_OID_USR_DATE_OF_BIRTH
    ERROR [ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '0' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)' XELLERATE.ADAPTERS - Class/Method: tcAdpEvent/updateDataSetValuePost encounter some problems: {1}
    Can anyone suggest any method to update date field on process form?

    Hi Abhi,
    Can you tell me how you have implemented populating an UDF based on Prepopulation of another UDF. I have a similar kind of requirement. It would be great if you share your code or relevant part of it.

  • Is it mandatory to bind each & every CONTEXT element to a text field on the form?

    Hello,
    I am developing an Adobe Interactive Form, i have Designer 8.1 and Reader 9.0 in my Windows 7 Laptop. When i checked the menu EDIT-->form properties --> Compatability, its Adobe XML form File (XDP)
    I have 3 elements (say, 1_Name, 2_Street and 3_City) in the CONTEXT and drawn ONLY 2 input enabled TEXT fields (for items - Name and Street of conetext) and then, BINDED them.
    I did not put any associate text field for CITY and no chance of binding!
    Pls. let me know that, Now can i utilize this CITY (of context) element containign data in the Java script? is this CITY is VISIBLE in the java script, even though it did not get BINDED with any text field on the form?
    THank you

    Thank you.
    If it got BINDED, i knew how to point/get/visible the CITY element (of CONTEXT) containming data by using the below java script,
    (this.rawValue == "A") or i can also get it with script of VISITOR.Page3.Subform11.CITY.rawvalue = "A"
    If i do NOT bind CITY to any TEXT FIELD of FORM, then, how i can retrieve/get/visible/point CITY content?

  • Making some words Bold/Underlined of an editable text field in Adobe Form?

    I have a a requirement of making some words Bold/Underlined of an editable text field in Adobe Form. I have created a "Text Field" and in "Value" tab as default value I have written the textline and made the field Type as "User entered - optional" so that at runtime user can edit that text. Now they want some words of the whole text line should display as Bold and some as Underlined. Can you please help me to meet this requirement.
    Moderator message: please have a look in the dedicated forum for "Adobe Interactive Forms".

    Just an idea, but you might try re-printing that original PDF file to the Adobe PDF printer (saving it as another pdf file, essentially). Then try again to add form fields. (You can copy the form fields you've already created and paste them onto the new file -- just copy and paste while in forms edit mode). A second shot in the dark if the first doesn't work might be to try again, but change the print settings when printing to PDF. I've ready some reports that the dpi setting can have an effect. Maybe go from 600 to 150 and see if that works. Let me know which, if either, of these ideas works.

  • Popup LOV updating text field

    Hi
    I have a region on a page with the following fields:
    Popup LOV
    Text Field 1
    Text Field 2
    I need to populate the 2 text fields dependant on the option chosen in the Popup LOV (i.e. whenever the user chooses a value from the popup list, the text fields are populated based on a lookup on a database table using the selected popup value as the item to look up on).
    I have found a similar example on this forum to do this using a select list but nothing for a popup LOV.
    Could anybody help with this please?
    Thanks in advance

  • Update text fields with xml data based on DDL selection of an ID number

    Hi guys,
    this one should be straight forward, but I cant seem to find a straight forward answer.  In a nutshell:
    XML file contains ID, Name, Location (so far 3 records in sample xml file)
    Form contains a Dynamic Drop down list to allow selection of ID and text fields to display the associated name and location of that ID.  The binding of the Drop down works fine, however I need the other fields to update to the associated name and location when different ID's are selected.  I assume I'll need some sort of exit event on the drop down list to update the other fields with the Name and location of the ID selected, but I dont know enough to have a stab at it.
    please, please, please help, Im starting to pull my hair out.
    James.

    Hi James,
    This would depend on the structure of your XML but assuming you have something like;
    <Data>
                <Item>
                            <Id>1</Id>
                            <Name>Name1</Name>
                            <Location>Location1</Location>
                </Item>
                <Item>
                            <Id>2</Id>
                            <Name>Name2</Name>
                            <Location>Location2</Location>
                </Item>
                <Item>
                            <Id>3</Id>
                            <Name>Name3</Name>
                            <Location>Location3</Location>
                </Item>
    </Data>
    Then in the change event of your dropdown (your could use the exit event but then value might not have changed so would be performing unnecessary processing) add the following code.
    var itemGroup = $data.Data.resolveNode("Item.(Id.value === '"+xfa.event.change+"')");
    Name.rawValue = itemGroup.Name.value;
    Location.rawValue = itemGroup.Location.value;
    The xfa.event.change will be the value selected, the resolveNode will return the Item with the matching Id, and then it is just a matter of assigning it to your form fields.
    Hope this gets you started.
    Regards

  • Unable to return value from LOV to the text field

    I have created the LOV and attached in the database text item. I have done the mapping to the require field in the LOV properties and I was able to show the LOV whenever reach that field by press F9 with all the records in my query. However, when I try to press enter to select one of the data in the LOV screen, the data was not return to the column which I have defined the LOV. What's wrong with this ?

    Lim,
    Check is there any KEY-LIST-VAL trigger has any code. And Also check by assigning the same value to a dummy item for testing.

  • How to auto-complete text field in the form?

    Hi,
    I have a table CustTable that has 2 columns:
    1. Column_A
    2. Column_B
    I have a form that has 2 fields:
    1. Field_A - Lookup Field - it takes data from a custom table lookup (Lookup Query: SELECT Column_A from CustTable) - it works fine.
    2. Field_B - Text Field - I would like to autocomplete this field (as value from Column_B) based on the value selected in the Field_A (SELECT Column_B from CustTable where Column_A = "value from Field_A") - is it possible to autocomplete a text field ?
    I have made it using 2 lookup fields and it works, but then user has to make a select on the lookup twice and I would like to make it only once.
    Thanks in advance!

    I don't think w/o UI Customization it is possible.
    UI customization won't be a small one as it is a common wizard and used at multiple places. So it will be a huge work.

  • How to generate barcode from text field in adobe form???

    hello everyone,
    I'm new in this forum and I hope that there are people who can answer my question.
    I use Adobe Acrobat Pro 9. I have converted a Word template to a PDF template and everything works fine.
    I would like to generate a barcode of the contents of a text field (by the users), for example the following format 0123-A123456-11.
    I have tried in various ways but it has not worked. The barcode becomes unstructured and unreadable.
    Does anyone know how to do it step by step?
    Best regards!
    Nader from Sweden

    Hi,
    You can insert dynamic barcodes into your form using LC Designer. 
    You should do a search here as dynamic barcodes has been covered by by Steve Walker in detail. For example:
    BARCODE 128 - possibility of binding 2 data fields to the barcode
    Paperforms barcodes
    Using Barcode in Acroforms
    However one thing to bear in mind is that dynamic barcodes will not work in Reader unless the form has been Reader enabled using LC Reader Extensions ES2, which is a server product. Option 4 in this summary:
    Good luck,
