Mandatory fields causing validation errors

The problem is that we have a process train and the user can't enter fields that are marked as mandatory on the Entity Object until they get further down the process train. However, you cannot get past the first step (refer to this image: http://xs344.xs.to/xs344/09412/screen444823.png).
The weird part is that there are 2 validation checks, the first checks if the fields on the page are validated (exactly what I need), THEN it checks all of the EO validations. I do not want the later.
What is the best work around for this?

Hi,
Did you try using immediate=true attribute for passing the validation phase?

Hide the error msg for the mandatory fields

hi

User,
I'll assume you are talking about ADF Faces + ADF Business Components application, since you don't mention it.
If you are talking about the pop-up Javascript dialog box that pops up, you can do the following:
1). Set required=false on those fields in your JSP.
2). Set showrequired=true on those same fields so that there is a visual indication that the fields are required
3). Ensure the attribute to which the fields are bound have "mandatory" set to true in the BC's
Now, when you commit the form, you will not see the Javascript pop-up, but you will see a message in the af:messages component.
Best,

Validation errors in invoke application phase

Hi,
Is it possible to some how cause validation errors in the invoke application phase?
I have a search form which uses a request scope managed bean. When the normal validations (one required field and another custom validator) fail in the validations phase, the form is redisplayed with errors and the user can hit submit again and the form will do as expected.
I would also like to cause this behaviour if there where no search results, or more than the maximum, but as the bean is in request scope, when the form is redisplayed with these error messages if the user hits submit again the form is simply reloaded with the same values but no errors and the invoke application phase is never reached. They have to then hit submit again for it to work.
Upon either of these errors I add a faces message to the context which gets displayed properly, but that doesn't seem to suggest validation error so request is still ended. I though by setting one of the components to invalid (by binding it to the managed bean) it would work but no joy.
Any ideas how I can achieve this?
Thanks!

Hi I am also facing the issue. If any one got the solutoin for this please post it

Mandatory fields on the same page with dependent LOVs

Hi,
I am working on an ADF-BC application using JDeveloper 10.1.3.4
I have an ADF Creation form with dependent LOVs and while implementing dependent LOVs we set the autoSubmit property of the selectOneChoiceListBox as true.
If I have some mandatory fields on the same page then because of the autoSubmit property set as true whenever I select a value in the list the page gets submitted and the mandatory fields give an error that the values are required therefore I had to remove the mandatory fields.
I tried using f:subview but even that dint serve the purpose because what I want is something like partialSubmit so that my mandatory fields do no give an error when I select a value in the list.
Can somebody help me on this, how to have a dependent list and mandatory fields on the same page.
P.S: It is very crucial for my application
Thanks,
Raksha

Hello,
This bug has been around since 10.1.3, its even still present in Trinidad and now in 11.
One of the ways to avoid is to make your fields use:
showRequired="true"instead of
required="true"I have not found a decent way to avoid this in general.
My idea was that this shiould be possible with a phaselistener and determine if this is a partial page event instead of a normal submit, but this didnt work.

Validation Errors with adf dialog

Hi!
We are using Oracle BC and ADF Faces.
I'm having some validation problems with a adf dialog.
The scenario is the following:
An editing page.
A field in this page has a LOV.
The LOV has some search criteria, and a search button.
When the button is clicked, the results appear on a table. The user selects one and the lov is closed.
When filling the editing page the Lov is opened.
When i don't put search criteria in the fields, no validation errors appear.
If i put one or more search criterias, validations errors of the editing page appear.
Why is this happening?
Thanks.

I'm pretty sure AUR doesn't support packages that have different versions per architecture, I also wonder why the developer thinks this is a good idea. Anyway, as described here you should use source_$ARCH and sha256sums_$ARCH, not custom-if statements

Mandatory field validation error occurs when user cancels out of blank "cre

Hi - I'm building an application using Oracle 10g 9.0.5.2, with ADF/UIX/Struts.
I followed the technique described in the tutorial
http://otn.oracle.com/obe/obe9051jdev/uixtutorial/lesson_uix.htm
In that example they have a page called BrowseDeptEmp. On this page is a
create button, which is linked to a /createEmpAction before displaying the
FormEmp uix page, where the user is supposed to enter new employee data.
So I did the same thing, but I added a cancel button on the FormEmp.uix page.
If the user presses cancel on the FormEmp page, it goes through a 'rollback' DataAction (with a rollback operation dragged on it) and then back
to the main page.
here's my problem:
If the user
1. clicks the create button on the BrowseDeptEmp page
2. Sees the blank form in the FormEmp page
3. Changes his mind (does not want to add a new employee) and clicks cancel
The FormEmp page displays validation errors on the fields that are mandatory in the DB! So the user
can't cancel out of the create page unless he fills in the mandatory fields...!!
How do I cancel out of a create page 1) without entering any data on the page and 2) without getting
mandatory field validation messages?
It must be simple but i can't figure it out....
Please help :)
Thanks
Des

I don't understand how this can happen if the user has not entered any data.
Is there a commit action somewhere that is being triggered before the rollback?
is your cancel button a submit button?
one way to fix this is to convert the submit button into a
regular button and have the regular button go directly to your DataAction (the one with the rollback).
you can automatically create this button by drawing a pageLink from the page to the DataAction in the page flow diagram.

Form validation error with mandatory fields and signature field

Hello,
I have seen that many other users are facing this issue, and they partialy do solve it with some workarounds. However, none of them applies to my case.
I have a dynamic form (can be registration form for example) where user fills in bunch of fields. Some of them are mandatory.
When user signs the form, I get our favourite validation error popups that filed this and this did not validate. (I think that the signature is not valid too once I get these errors).
Workaround would be to set all fileds in the form as optional, however, the presign and postsign events work only in A9 and I need the form to be compatible with ver. 8 too.
I also need to make sure, that they are not set to optional, if the signing fails, user clicks on cancel etc...
Any ideas how to acomplish such a scenario?
Thanks
J.

solved by myself.
You have to install and configure the reader rights credentials mentioned in note 736902

Error message is not telling which field causing the issue!

Hello
I am developing the Adobe Interactive Form and launching this form from WebDynPro ABAP application, fine.
This form has tonns of dropdown fields, mandatory fields, greyed out fields. Fine.
I am filling the list the drop-down fields from webdynpro ABAP, but, i am filling list for only 80% of the drop-down fields, rest 20 % is not filling at all (bcz, business want to have those 20% dropd-owns on the form by thinking going further they require, this moment they dont need so they dont want to fill the lists)
Now the form is launching on the browser, fine. But when user submits it i am getting the below erro:
The Entered Value Is Not on the List of Valid Values. (I am guessing this error is talking about the DROPDOWN fields only)
I hv tonns of drop-down fields, so, its very difficult for me to go and trace each and every drop-down fielld!! But, i checked all the populated/entered values in the drop-down fields, they are all fine. Sone dropd-down fields are GREYED OUT, they are defaulted from webdynpro ABAP
Pls. let me know How can know which field/drop-down is causing this issue? Wht are the possible causes for this error? Error is not telling which fields is making issue?
How can i trace and how can i fix it, pls. let me know
Thank you

Thank you for your tips.
But, as of my knowledge every thing (case sensitive, list box entries) are fine, not sure, why am getting this error! I will double chk again.
But, thing is.... actually, i have 4 pages, depending on the logged in user, i will HIDE the pages (say, for me the 3 rd page will be hidden), i am hiding the pages by using JavaScript in the form.
So, this error is not coming if i execute/launch all the 4 pages, but, its coming if i hide any page for any user!!
By chance, do we debug to figure out which FIELD is CAUSING issue/this error?
From where this message is coming, i mean, from the SAP's JAVA stack? Wht is the message ID and #?
or is it Adobe's/Form's error?
Thank you

Dynamic mandatory field error message is not getting displayed in webui

Hi,
In Appointment if the importance is HIGH i made Location as mandatory.For this i enhanced BT126H_APPT/ApptDetails. In the get_p_location() method of BTACTIVITYYH i have written the code.
Now the problem is Error message for this dynamic mandatory field is not getting displayed in webui.
I debugged in DO_FINISH_INPUT error message is getting generated but it is not getting displayed in ui.
Can anybody tell where the problem is?
Thanks,
Hari.

Hi Hari,
Really sorry do not know how to convert this nug file to text
How ever quick solution for your problem would be just keep your validation in 'DO_VALIDATE_INPUT' method of the view controller.
Means even if the User clicks on SAVE , Since it fails here , it would not allow you to go further.
Thanks,

Mandatory field validation on Page links.

We have created a Portal application where we included different applications as taskflows. We have also created a tabbed interface which helps us to communicate from one task flow to another taskflow. When we are in one page of taskflow and try to move to another page of different taskflow using tabbed interface we receive mandatory field validation error which prevents us to move to any other page until we fill all the mandatory fields. We need to move to different page of taskflow by using the tabbed interface even without filling all the necessary mandatory fields. Can anyone help us to resolve this issue as this is very important for our project.

Mandatory fields error messages in HCM forms and processes

Hi,
This may sound to be a very simple problem but I am unable to get to the root of the issue and thus need an expert advise here.
I have created several forms in the system out of which one is an OM form using SAP_PD service for create position. There are few mandatory fields in the form scenario such as
TITLE
ABBREVIATION
EMPLOYEE GROUP
EMPLOYEE SUBGROUP
As expected, system issues an error message if these field are left out blank but the error message is generic for all the fields and is missing the field name.
Actual Error Message
Complete the required entry field ""
Expected Error Message
Complete the required entry field "Employee Group"
Complete the required entry field "Employee Subgroup"
However, there are couple of fields in the form scenario which issues a correct error message
Complete the required entry field "Object abbreviator" (P1000-SHORT)
I am unable to identify the difference between the couple of fields that issues a correct message and rest 20 other fields which doesn't.
Regards,
Murtuza Kharodawala

No, if I enter all the mandatory fields on the form then there is no problem. It allows me to move ahead and submit the form successfully.
As recommended by Siddharth, I tried debugging the message class and what I observed was it passes the complete_fieldname value as Personnel Subarea (I1008_BTRTL) and system expects it to be I1008-BTRTL.
SAP as a fallback tries to read description from the table T5ASRFSCNFLDT but it has a_form_scenario as blank and complete_fieldname has a concatenated value "Personnel Subarea (I1008_BTRTL)" instead of "I1008-BTRTL".
Not sure what am I missing which causes it to have this wrong error message.

Getting mandatory attribute validation error when the value is defaulted through customization

Hi
I am getting Mandatory attribute validation error when we default the value through customization.
In the UI we have attribute called Last Name which is mandatory at EO level. Customer wanted to default Last name to some value, through page composer it is defaulted to some text and saved.
When ever we open the page the the same value is defaulted as Last Name and appearing in the UI. But when we submit the page, EO level validation is failing. hence we are getting last name is missing.
When i debug the code last name attribute value for EO is blank.
In the UI the attribute last name is associated with bindings --> #{bindings.lastname.inputvalue}
The validation is failing if we remove the default binding associated with inputtext box.
Can some body help what can be reason and is there any solution?
Thanks,
Praveen

version 12.1.2
I am struggling with same situation, I can't set the default value at business component because, the default value comes from a REST service at run time. In page A, I have a field F1 that contains value from REST service. Page B has a database bound field F2, whose default value should come from F1 in Page A when a user navigates from Page A to Page B. If I set the value of F2 to be the value of F1, then it displays the value in the UI, but nothing gets submitted to EO and fails at commit.
To make things difficult, here is my situation: Page A lives in bounded taskflow TF1, and Page B lives in bounded taskflow TF2. So I have created an input parameter P1 in TF 2, which carries over the value of F1 in Page A to Page B. When I am in Page B, I can successfully see the value of the taskflow input parameter P1. So, how do I programmatically set the value of field F2 with the value of input parameter P1?
I tried setting the F2.inputValue in a method call M1 in taskflow TF2 prior to Page B, but I get null pointer exception as it can't see field F2 yet.
It seems like a simple thing to do, but I have spent a lot of time trying to make it work without any success.
I would greatly appreciate any guidance.

Hi,
Even I faced a Similar problem...
1) make sure that the size of the data that is coming to BIC map is not larger than the size defined in the Source field (Check In BIC and SAP XI/PI map.
2) Make sure id any other seeburger mapping are working fine , This is because you have to deploy the file in form of Active mapping.sca in SAP XI/PI after the changes are made on BIC side.
3) Check the Adapter Engine Cache ...
Hope this helps..
