Multiple Default Values in a Multi-Select LOV Parameter?

Hi,
I have a report in BI Publisher standalone version 10.1.3.4. The report has a list of values called org_lov. This lov is attached to a multi-selection p_org_code parameter from which it is desirable to also have multiple default values.
For example, if org_lov has the following values:
100
101
102
103
104
105
106
I would like to have 3 default values and have 100, 101,105 as the defaults if the user doesn't specifically select anything from the LOV. So far my testing has only allowed a single default value.
Here are my settings:
Data type = string
Multiple Selection = checked
Can select All = checked (all values passed)
On the Default Value field, I have tried the following:
1. 100, 101,105
2. [100, 101,105]
3. '100', '101','105'
4. (100, 101,105)
5. ['100', '101','105']
6. ('100', '101','105')
I don't need these default values highlighted in the LOV, I just need it passed correctly to the query (a data template).
Thank you in advance for any input.

Hi,
Sorry for the delayed reply. I tried what you suggested but the problem is that by having the "Multiple Selection" property of the parameter unchecked, the result is that it allows the user to only have a single value passed. The user wants the option to select multiple values AND also have the multiple default values.
Thanks anyway.

Select MULTIPLE default values for a multiple selection list box based on another field in Infopath 2010

Hello there - Before I explain my issue, I would like to point out that I have reviewed some other discussions on selecting default values for multiple selection listbox. But my issue is specific and different, and not answered by any of the discussions
I visited.
I have a multiple selection list box (say for example all countries in the world as values), and I would like to pre-select or setup multiple default values (say five countries) based on some criteria that I query from MS SQL database table.
I know we can go to Data | Default Values option to setup one or many default values for multiple selection list box. When I enter the default values manually this works. I also right click the field under the Multiple-Selection List Box group, then select
Add another Value Below and set the Default Value for this field to setup multiple default values.
However, if I reference a field (either an infopath field or a field from SQL database) I am not able to setup multiple default values. Infopath automatically selects the last field I selected for all instances and in the end I am able to see only one
default value selected instead of many. How to fix this problem? Why would infopath allow multiple default values when we enter it manually but not when we reference some fields?
Please let me know if you need more info. Appreciate your help.
Thanks!

Hi redhotc,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to set multiple default values for a multiple checkbox list in InfoPath form.
I did a test with SQL database table. I set three default values for the checkbox list by adding three values field under the group field(Data->Default values), each value field is for a default value. Then publish it to my SharePoint site, everything
was fine.Please have a try as the below link:
http://www.bizsupportonline.net/infopath2010/pre-select-items-multiple-selection-list-box-infopath-2010.htm
Note: if you are using SQL databse table, you may need to enable ‘Allow cross-domain data access for user form templates that use connection settings in a data connection file’ in CA. More information, please refer to:

I hope this helps.

How to create multiple rows in a child table from the multi select Lov

Hi
We have Departments and EmployDept and Persons tables and each employee can associate multiple departments and vice versa.While creating a Department page there should be a Multi Select LOV(values from Persons table) with search option for the Persons.From the search panel we can select multiple persons for that department.Suppose we have selected 5 persons and click on submit, then it should create 5 rows in the EmployDept table for 5 persons with that department id.
Any inputs on how to implement this scenario please..

Maybe you can get some ideas from here -

Multiple default values for Selection type variable

Hi all,
I am using Bex 3.5. I have a fundamental doubt while creating a User Entry, Selection Option, Optional type variable. I am trying to include multiple single variables in the default section, but it accepts only one. Is it possible to add multiple default values to the variable so that they show up in the selection screen when we run the report via Bex Analyzer ?
Thanks for the inputs !
Regards
Snehith.

Hi,
In one of my bi7 reports, i remember i have given multiple default values in a single variable. For example i wanted to have multiple material types in my selection screen.
But i have to check out the type of that user entry variable.
Hope the above reply was helpful.
Kind regards,

Multi-select LOV return into single row

I have a multi-select lov setup on a column in a table layout. I want to be able to select the lov, select multiple rows in the lov and then when I press the select button in the lov window to have those lov records select return to the same column. Currently, the lov returns the multi lov records into multiple records on my table layout.

IN JHeadstart 10.1.3, we will add the option to return multiple selected values as a comma-separated list into the same field. With 10.1.2 this is not possible. You can implement this yourself by overriding method JhsDataAction.onLovSelect.

Multi-select LOV does not work in forms

the multi select LOV does not work in the form.
the LOV works individually but in the form it does not work. it does not allow multiple selection from the list.
is there a workaround for this or is this a bug ...?
any ideas ...?
thanx a lot.
null

Right, we cannot store more than one value in a single column in a table :), we were getting a lot of requests to support multiple select LOVs but requirements were contradictory if not mutually exclusive.
The only sense it makes is when used together with user-defined object types (nested tables for example) but the current [application building]infrastructure we have does not support this. However, we are looking into this and this feature maybe implemented in a future release.

Processing Multi Select LOV Results in Portal Forms

Hi,
I want to be able to create a portal form where i can use a multi-select LOV to create multiple records on a seperate table. How does one 'capture' all selected items so that one can do a seperate insert into a child table containing the items? When querying the form how can one programmatically set the items so that they appear as selected.
Thanks

Hi,
Were you able to fix this up? If so, can you please provide me some directions?
Thanks

Multi-Select LOV doesn't work where 1

I have a form with 1 master & 2 detail blocks. Each of the detail blocks has an LOV, & I'd like both to use the multi-select LOV facility within Headstart. However, this doesn't work if there's > 1 multi-select LOV within the form, for these reasons -
1. If there's > 1 multi-select LOV, you have to include reusable module component qms_msel_lov_buttons for each. As this is reusable, you can't edit the name. Therefore you have duplicate block names, therefore generator discards the names specified in Des2K & uses default block names of MC0, MC1 etc.
2. Headstart code in qms$init_application sets the lov block prefix to ML_. At runtime, the form fails with FRM-40104: No such block: ML_MC1.
I can't see any way of influencing Des2k's choice of block name, short of copying the reusable component into a specific component. Is there any workaround in Headstart you can suggest, to make this facility work?

Cheryl,
You are correct, you must make a specific copy of the reusable module component to work around this. I will record this as an enhancement request for future releases. Thanks for the info.

SEARCH item in MULTI-SELECT LOV (Hierachical Tree)

I have created a multi-select LOV using a hierarchical tree; providing the query for the tree in the Functional/Data Query property.
The Multi-Select LOV works fine. As you would suspect some LOV's have long lists that one must scroll through.
I would like to implement a SEARCH field (as seen in Forms standard LOV functionality) that will search through my Tree Node values and highlight the item searched (again as the standard LOV functionality works). Thus, allowing the user to quickly find the values in the list.
How do I go about referencing the Tree Node values to the value in the search (field) item?

Hello,
Search, through the FTree package's functions, those that allows to navigate through the leaves.

Multi Select LOV Gives CDI-21600

Have discovered that the Multi Select LOV facility is causing error CDI-21600 in some circumstances.
We have 2 tables -
Instance_Type_Owners
ito_int_id
ito_owner_org_id
ito_owner_ort_id
ito_created_by
ito_created_date
pk is the first 3 columns
Instance_Type_Relations
itr_ito_int_id1
itr_ito_owner_org_id1
itr_ito_owner_ort_id1
itr_ito_int_id2
itr_ito_owner_org_id2
itr_ito_owner_ort_id2
pk is all 6 columns, with 2 fk's pointing back to Instance_Type_Owners.
I'm creating a 2 block form, master block has base table of Instance_Type_Owners, detail block has base table of Instance_Type_Relations, using a key link based on the fk pointing back to id1's. I also want a multi-select LOV using the fk pointing back to id2's. This is giving me CDI-21600; the error goes away if I take the Template/Library Object qmsso$msel_lov_item off the leading element of the fk used by the LOV (i.e. itr_ito_int_id2).
I've double-checked everything about the definitions of these tables/pks/fks, & everything looks ok. I've successfully used multi-select LOV on other tables with a similar fk structure (ie relationship tables, with 2 fks pointing back to the same master table), & with multi-column fks, so it's not being caused by any of these reasons.
Any ideas on what may be causing this?

Thanks for the response. I have seen the checklists for causes of this problem, & have checked all tables/fks/pks involved in the form. I can successfully generate forms which maintain these tables, or with lookups to these tables. The problem only happens when I use the Headstart multi-select LOV facility. As I said, the problem goes away immediately I remove the 'qmsso$msel_lov_item' template/library object from the leading element of the fk in the base table.
If I go to Designer support & tell them this, I'm pretty sure they'll say it's a Headstart problem, since it only happens when Headstart facilities are involved.

Multi-select LOV bug and Developer6i R2 Patch7

Has anyone verified that Patch7 corrects the problem with multi-
select LOV bug (see below). The Headstart6i Report Launch form
(QMS0012F) exhibits this bug (when using the demo reports for
example) and we were unsuccessful applying the workaround (see
below). We will upgrade to Patch7 if this bug is fixed or we
could use a little help from the HeadStart team correcting the
Report Launch form to get around this bug. Thanks, Keith
We have found one odd quirk with Headstart 6i and Forms
6i versions 6.0.13 and higher.
Description ===========
1. When using a multi-select LOV (which is displayed in a modal
dialog window), you select the records you want, press OK, and
the application exits.
2. When using a shuttle control to move records from left to
right or vice versa, you select the records you want, press '>'
to move them, and the application exits. This occurs in Forms
6.0.8.13.0 and higher. It did NOT occur in prior releases. This
is some kind of forms bug.
Workaround ==========
For some reason the call to procedure 'renumber' in
qms$msel.process_records in qmslib65.pll causes the application
to exit. If you copy the code from renumber to all the places
from which it is called, it works fine.

So far as I know, this bug has not yet been corrected.
You will have to apply the fix as described in your email
message.

Multi-Select LOV for Report Parameters

I have a LOV defined in Oracle Portal as a Multi-Select LOV. When I assign this to an optional report parameter when defining a reports definiton file and run the parameter screen, it comes up as a combo box. Is a combo box the only type of LOV I can use for an Oracle Reports Parameter.
Thanks
Jody

With whatever i could make out is you are trying to change a discovere report to xml; publisher report isnt it?
To answe to your question, directly it is not possible to have In clause but you could use some smart logic like lexical parameters etc to achieve similar things.I guess you cannot do in in EBS Reports too.

Multi-select LOV's hang form and use 100% CPU power

Hello,
We are using Designer 6i (6.5.52.1.0) and Headstart 6.5
In one of our forms we are using 6 Multi-select LOV's.
When we click the Cancel or Ok button (included through QMS_MSEL_LOV_BUTTONS), or hit Enter query in one of the ML_... blocks the form hangs and starts using all the CPU-power. I've tested this locally (c/s) and through the web (iAS), same result...
I already rebuilt the LOV's but the problem isn't solved.
We've got other forms with one or two multi-select LOV's, and these work fine.
Has anyone experienced this behaviour before, and what is the cure?
Thanks in advance!
Wouter

Wouter,
If you are running against Solaris, you could be running into the following:
Headstart applications that run via webforms on a Sun Solaris application server, suffer again from bug 1985903. This bug was spotted and solved a time ago and seemed to be solved at next
releases of Forms 6i. Now, on Solaris the bug is introduced again.
Description
===========
1. When using a multi-select LOV (which is displayed in a modal dialog
window), you select the records you want, press OK, and the application exits.
2. When using a shuttle control to move records from left to right or vice
versa, you select the records you want, press '>' to move them, and the
application exits.
This occurs in Forms 6.0.8.13.0 and 6.0.8.14.1. It did NOT occur in prior
releases. This is some kind of forms bug.
Workaround
==========
For some reason the call to procedure renumber in qms$msel.process_records
causes the application to exit. If you copy the code from renumber to all the
places from which it is called, it works fine.
- open qmslib65.pll in Form Builder
- open package body qms$msel
- find procedure process_records and define a local variable l_recno of type
number.
- find local procedure renumber and copy the body of this procedure
(everything
after 'begin' and before 'exception').
- replace each call to 'renumber;' with the copied code.
A new version of qms$msel package body is available on iXchange for download.

Hope this helps,
