Multiple form regions

ive looked up a few threads of the same type.. What i have is two forms one inserting into 1 table and another inserting into another table.. the second form is hidden until the first form is saved. The problem is if i set the second form items source to a column of its table, i try to save the first form and it says invalid identifier.. i know that i cant have multiple automatic row processess on one page, so im struggling to find a solution to my problem
thanks in advance

Hello,
To fetch data from database, you need to create onload process which will fire when hidden filed holding primary key has value.
eg.
select col1 , col2 , col3 into :P1_FIELD1 , :P1_FIELD2 , :P1_FIELD3 from myTable
where primary_key_col = :P1_PRIMARY_KEY_FIEDL;Regards,

Multiple Form Regions with a single Save button

Hello,
Is it possible to have multiple form regions on a single page, with a single Save button that commits changes in all form regions? If so, would the forms have to be manual forms?
If that is not possible, or a bad way to go with APEX, what are my alternatives?
I am trying to avoid the user having to click through many screens to input the data. Logically each section should be in a different table, but I would like to group some of the sections together to reduce the number of pages the users need to navigate to.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Johnnie

Hi Johnnie,
I assume that the tables are related somehow?
If so, you can create a SQL View on the joined tables (making sure that you have a unique ID for each record in the view that can act as the Primary Key), base the form on that view and then use an INSTEAD OF trigger on the view to populate the individual tables.

Multiple forms in one region???

Hello guys,
I have created application with couple of pages, but now I have one critical issue with one page.
In this page I have created multiple forms in one region by customize templated, that is working very much fine, but I unable to insert/update data into the DB table through this page.
My sinceraio is something like that, I have couple of tables, where p_id is common in all of the tables, now this issue page I have created multiple(2) forms in one region where both the forms are built but two separated DB tables in one both of them has one column in common ie p_id, the value of p_id is processed from the previous page.
I am aware of the apex limitation about one table for region and hence I created View from this two different tables and above that created INSTEAD OF trigger for insert and update purpose as through I can't, so.
got the help from this below forum:-

But still I am unable to get any sucess.... if somebody can help me out...????

Can I use apexrefresh to refresh a form region?

Hi- I have a tree region and below that I have a form region.
The tree has links that calls a javascript function when a node is clicked.
I want this JS function to set the ID for the form and then refresh just the form portion so the tree stays in the open, partial open, or whatever state it is in.
function set_program_id(pPROG_ID){
alert(pPROG_ID);
$s('P21_PROG_ID',pPROG_ID);
apex.jQuery('#PROG_DETAIL').trigger('apexrefresh');
I have PROG_DETAIL in the STATIC ID field of the region.
It doesn't work... is it possible or is this only for IR regions?

I doubt the refresh functionality supports forms and trees. I have been able to get only report regions refreshed that way. Someone from the development team can probably answer that conclusively.
<li>You can think of invoking an Ondemand Process, return back JSON or XML for all the form item values and then set the form parsing that result set.
<li>Another way would be to use the new jQuery dialog functionality in Apex 4 to show a nice dialog box over the tree. The content of the box can be from another page where you can put your form in. When you show display the dialog you can set the dependent items (I suppose P21_PROG_ID ) first.
<li>If its just 2 or 3 items, you can even render them in a report as multiple rows and then refresh them.
For example
SELECT 'Prog Name' LABEL. APEX_ITEM.TEXT(1,progname) from .. where PROG_ID = :P21_PROG_ID
UNION ALL
SELECT 'Prog Description' LABEL. APEX_ITEM.TEXTAREA(1,description) from .. where PROG_ID = :P21_PROG_IDYou can try around with JS to display the content in the way you want it.
Now your form can be refreshed using a Dynamic action.
Personally I would choose using the jQuery Dialog Box as its more clean,is easily maintainable and looks nice.

RetrorespectiveActivation of Multiple Form 16 in mid- of the financial year

Hi All,
We have mainatined TAN as per the company Code in feature 40ECC. Now we want to have multiple Form 16 if there is change in company Code of an employee for the financial year 2009.
We have not activated Multiple Form 16 Switch so far. Now in the last month of financial Year 2009 that in March'2010 (period 12/2009) we want to activate Multiple Form 16 switch from 01.04.2009. After activation Multiple form 16 Switch, we are planning to trigger retro for all employees from 01.04.2009.
But we are not very much sure what will be the impact of activating Multiple Form 16 switch now in the last period of the financial year.
Required your valuable inputs on this.
Thanks,
Ravinder

Hi,
Check whether multiple Form 16 switch is active or not.
In case this is active, then the Form 16 will be generated as under:
Company A - showing earnings from 01.04.08 to 31.12.08 only
Company B - showing earnings from 01.01.09 to 31.03.09 as current earnings and from 01.04.08 to 31.12.08 as income from previous employment.
In case multiple Form 16 is not active, then the Form 16 that you are getting is correct. However, in this case you need not print the Form 16 of company A. Only the Form 16 from the company code where the employee belongs to as on 31.03.2009 (i.e. last day of the FY) will be printed. And in this case the Form 16 will include complete earnings from 01.04.2008 to 31.03.2009 as current earnings.
Hope this clarifies your query.

How top open multiple forms at the same time in HRMS menu

Hi,
When enabling "Close Other forms" in HRMS menu by excluding the function ‘Navigator: Disable Multiform’ Function in the Responsibility Definition (System Administrator -> Security -> Responsibility -> Define), mutliple forms works fine but I'am facing another error.
My problem is: when this option is enabled, I tried to run Payroll run request but it turned out that payroll list of values is returning empty values and I'am unable to select any payroll from list of values. the only way to do so is to remove back ‘Navigator: Disable Multiform’ Function from exclusion section in responsibility.
My requirment is: to have multiple form and payroll run list of values working at the same time
Thanks

Reason for this , if ur request is attached to more than 1 responsibility , i think this issue will come , we got same issue
we remove it from responsibility list , then it is working fine

How to pass a parameter from a report to multiple forms in the same page

Hi:
i have a report and a lot of forms in the same page. The fact is that i want to stablish a link over a filed in the report which would make some information appear in those forms so that information could be updated. For example: i have a report with company names. Over those names i want to put a link. When the link would be pressed the forms would reflect the information about that comany. Is this possible to be done? how can i do this or something similar?
Thanks.
Regards. Urko.

Please see post Re: session state security
It has been done for a single form in a page and can be extended to multiple forms as well.

Generate and Print Preview Multiple Forms in a Single PDF

There have been other questions similar to this but none directly address my problem. We have the need to generate multple forms in a .pdf using Adobe interactive forms. We can generate the multiple forms, but the user has to click on each form to view. They want to have the forms in a single document that they can scroll through before printing. We can do this in SmartForms but need to do it in Adobe. Does anyone know how to generate multiple forms, either multiple copies of the same form or various forms, from an ABAP program into a single pdf that can be print previewed, in scrollable form, by the user?

I can describe it one more time, I think:))
You have multiple options, but only one "reasonable" within SAP.
You can call an external application (through command line etc.) to concatenate forms for you.
You can use iText as mentioned in the thread, and write yourself a "tool" which will concatenate the forms for you.
Both these "options" would not be acceptable for my clients, I name them to help you get the whole picture.
Then there is the third option: use a form for a single instance (template/ form A) and create a new form (form B), where you will use the A template:
- you need to: create a new interface where everything from the old interface is a row of the table (example: you have a form to print out the personal card of the employee, so in a new form you will need to use a table, where a row is an employee)
- you need to create a new form layout based on the new interface:
in this new layout you will paste the whole layout of the old form (A/ single instance) and wrap it into a subform. The added subform will work as a table (you will bind that to the table from interface) and everything from the old template within this new subform will work as a "row" (something what you can repeat for each data item).
Does that sound reasonable?

Print multiple forms between FP_JOB_OPEN and FP_JOB_CLOSE

I am aware, that there are questions regarding "Printing Multiple forms", but I didn't find answers there.
Still my system is not working as expected:
1. FP_JOB_OPEN is called
2. the generated Adobe Forms function is called multiple times
3. FP_JOB_CLOSE is called
This program doesn't deliver all the pages, but just the first call. How shall I solve this problem?
(Coding should work anywhere with copy-pase.)
data: fm_name           type rs38l_fnam,
      fp_docparams      type sfpdocparams,
      fp_outputparams   type sfpoutputparams.
parameters: p_fpname type fpname default 'FP_TEST_02'.
* Get the name of the generated function module
call function 'FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'

Hi ZSOLT,
In order to call the form multiple times please do the following,
1) Just before your FP_JOB_OPEN you need to pass the output parameters (good practice). You can also set other parameters as well (for example nodialog, preview, copies., etc)
CLEAR fp_outputparams.
fp_outputparams-dest = 'PDF1'.      "Default pdf printer
fp_outputparams-reqnew = 'X'.       "New spool request
Now call your FM FP_JOB_OPEN with the above output parameters.
2) Usually this step is processed in a loop. (getting your interface data into a internal table and then looping at it)
But here I am enhancing your example code.
In order to trigger the form multiple times you need to change some input data to the form (for example I have changed date and time below in the prepare test data sections) so that the call function fm_name gets regenerated every time there is new data
data l_datatypes       type sfpdatatypes.

Is it possible to create a form with multiple form fields on a single line?

Is it possible to create a form with multiple form fields on a single line? I can't find anything in the documentation or a template that does this.
I am trying to create a "documents received" checklist with a check box on the left margin, a date-received field to the right of the check box and and a description of the document (Formatted Text) on the far right.
In the past I have entered the Fixed Text with a word processor, published it to a PDF file, then added the check box and date fields with the Acrobat Forms editor. I would prefer to use FormsCentral if it is possible.

We now support multiple fields on one line. This post provides a brief overview.
Give it a try and send us your feedback.
Sorry it took so long.

Using spry select on multiple forms in same page

Greetings-
My apologies if this has already been answered but after a few searches I've not found my solution....
I have a web page with 2 different forms (completely different open form and close form tags) that I'm trying to get the Spry Select Widget to work in.
Both forms' Spry Select widgets interact as expected with the user with one exception; the second form continues to submit to the action page even if the user is trying to submit an invalid value (the docs suggested using the value of -1 so that's what I'm using). The appropriate error gets displayed to the user but the form continues to submit, which I don't want. Is there a limitation that I missed regarding the use of multiple forms in the same web page with the Spry Select Widget?
FWIW, I'm running the app on ColdFusion and even the cfform/cfselect won't work with the Spry Widget.... I've named and id'd all forms and form elements and still no luck.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Rich

Hi Brad,
The preamble looks reasonable. I would like to make sure you are clear on the process.
The data needs to be rendered twice (i.e. a 2 step job). In the first step you create a trace file with the page count for each document in it...\trace"^define User:PageCountForTrans_@:TransCount. @$page.@LF."."
In the second step, that trace file is brought back in as a preamble file.
Please confirm that you are in fact passing the data twice.
cheers

Multiple Forms in a Flash Document and Posting Using ASP

Hello everyone!
I have some what of a dilemma on my hands. I am creating
multiple forms in one document using Flash and need them to post
using ASP script. I have been researching this for the last six
days, and I have had NO luck. I have noticed that all the
information that I have found is for one form, not more than one.
What I have so far is the Flash document, with 4 forms. The
basic idea is that a user chooses from a drop down menu (the
combobox) a location, and depending on the location chosen, it
takes the user to another frame in the flash document. The forms
(all their own movie clip) contains a name field, a department
field, and either a manager name a userID field or an employee
number as well as the basic buttons for submitting the form or
resetting the form.
So far what I have working is the drop down menu (combobox)
taking me to the proper frame and it shows the appropriate form.
The reset button clearing the form (deleting any information that I
have imputed into the input fields), but I have absolutely NO idea
how to get the submit button to work (I did manage to get it to
send me a message if there was nothing in one of the input fields),
and NO idea how to get the information to the ASP file.
Where there are 4 forms do each of them have to have their
own ASP file attached to them, or can I use one?
If anyone knows a site that deals with multiple forms in one
SWF and posts using ASP that would be greatly appreciated, or if
you know some actionscript that could be helpful.
Thank you all in advance.

That would be part of my problem, I really don't know ASP,
and I am flying by the seat of my pants.
The current script I have for the ASP file is:
<% @Language = "VBScript" %>
<%
Option explicit
Dim strfullName
Dim strdeptName
Dim strmanagerName
Dim strobjeemail
Dim strlocation
strfullName.Request.Form("fullName_txt")
strdeptName.Request.Form("deptName_txt")
strmanagerName.Request.Form("managerName_txt")
strlocation.Request.Form("locationName")
Set strobjemail = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
strobjemail.From = "[email protected]"
strobjemail.To = "[email protected]"
strobjemail.Subject = "Program from " + strlocation
strobjemail.Body = "This user has completed this progrmam
from " + strlocation & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & "Name: " +
strfullName & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & "Department: " +
strdeptName & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & + "Manager: " +
strmanagerName
strobjemail.Send
Set strobjemail=nothing
%>
The AS code that I have so far is:
function formValidationChecks(){
if (fullName_txt.length==0){
status_txt.text = "Please enter your Name";
else if (deptName_txt.length==0){
status_txt.text = "Please enter your Department";
else if (managerName_txt.length==0){
status_txt.text = "Please enter your Manager";
else {
status_txt.text = "Thank You!";
variables.fullName_txt = fullName_txt.text;
variables.deptName_txt = deptName_txt.text;
variables.managerName_txt = managerName_txt.text;
varLoader.load(varSend);
trace("-----");
trace("Name: "+fullName_txt.text);
trace("Department: "+deptName_txt.text);
trace("Manager: "+managerName_txt.text);
trace("Form validated");
submit_btn.onRelease = function(){
status_txt.text = "";
if(formValidationChecks()){
var lv = new LoadVars();
lv.fullName_txt = form.fullName_txt.text;
lv.deptName_txt = form.deptName_txt.text;
lv.managerName_txt = form.managerName_txt.text;
lv.sendAndLoad("mail.asp", lv, "POST");
reset_btn.onRelease = function()
fullName_txt.text = "";
deptName_txt.text = "";
managerName_txt.text = "";
So far my reset button clears everything, and the submit
button is tracing the content in the form fields, but it's not even
grabbing the asp page.
Any suggestions? Even pages that have tutorials that are in
the form of a video.
Thanks

Select all the form fields , select first the hold shift key and select the rest Then right click or control click and choose properties. then look for "Fonts" choose desired font. If this works your all set otherwise you will have to choose each indivually and change.

Hello Surya,
I guess it depends your template. If it works for a report region and not for your forms region, you might want to have a look what the difference is in the templates for both regions.
You could give your form region the template of report region and see if that solves the problem?
Regards,
Dimitri
