Multiple forms in multiple windows within application

hi,
our user wants to be able to open more than one form in multiple windows within the application and have them within the application window at the same time. we are planning to use open_form instead of call_form to do this. however open_form does not let me specify the query mode, so i guess will have to do that manually? what does Oracle recommend as a best practice for applications - to support mutliple windows or not? if yes, as call_form or open_form?
thanks.

Yes using open form you will have to manually (in code) switch into Query Mode.
We recommend Open Form over call form as it is more memory efficient, of course there are situations when the behaviour of Call Form is useful but generally I'd encorage the use of open.

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?

How to open multiple forms through differnt responsiblity

I have a 11.5.10.2 system on Linux red hat.
Business pepole want to open multiple forms through different responsiblities from multiple web brower sessions.
However when I opened 2 IE brower sessions, log into responsiblity and open one oracle form in one IE session and log into another responsiblity through second IE session. The first opened form disappear and replaced by the second oracle form opened from another IE session. That means only one Oracle form can be open at the same time for this case.
The current walkaround solution is to open 2 browser sessions using 2 different browsers ( one is IE another is Firefox) to fix this issue. Apparently this is not a good solution.
Can you please give me some suggestion to fix this issue?

Thank you very much for the information.
The note mention:
The new forms launcher does not support opening multiple forms applets for the same database across different responsibilities. Opening a form in another responsibility will cause any forms currently open to close. This behaviour is standard.
However it is possible to enable users to open multiple forms sessions for the same database for the same responsibility when using MS Internet Explorer as the client browser. This is made possible with Patch 3293241. This patch is included in Oracle Applications release 11.5.10 as standard.
My current system is 11.5.10.2. I verified that patch 3293241 has been applied. I have no problem to open mutiple forms with in SINGLE web brower session, within same responsibility. I am aware that you can not open multiple forms through SINGLE web brower session through multiple responsiblity. What I tried to do is to open mutiple forms through multiple web browers sessions. Open one brower session, log into system and open a form, then open another web brower session, log into the sytem and open a form through different responsiblity. The system does not allow me to open multiple forms through multiple web brower sessions. Only the latest form can be displayed. Is this standard design for 11.5.10?
Can Form Servlet architecture solve this limitation?
Actually afterI changed some form funcation paramter in Oracle Application Developer responsiblity, I can open 2 form session from 2 different responsiblities through 2 web brower sessions. I can open one form session as Application Developer and another form session through another responsiblity. Then I can switch to other responsiblity through Application Developer responsiblity to open forms.
Is there any other way I can open multiple form sessions to the same database through multiple web brower sessions?
Thanks a lot for your help

Merging multiple forms and having shared fields

I am designing multiple forms for a client for application purposes. There are about 40 forms in all. Client is designing a online helper that will help users download only the forms they need for their application. So once that is decided, then we are giving them a download link for required forms only. In the end client will print the forms and submit them manually. (I know it could be done better, but not yet) There will be about 16-17 different combinations of forms.
Thing is, many of these forms have repetitive fields (name, address, phone, email, etc), so we would REALLY like to have it so that once filled out, those fields could quickly populate all the rest of the remaining forms. (does that make sense?)
I have had a couple ideas on how to accomplish this
1) Magic
2) Combined all required forms into one large PDF. Make the 16-17 possible combinations and then just set them all up manually.
Problem is that if Form 6 changes, it may change in 10 different packages. I don't want to do that manually every time there is a change
3) Somehow use Adobe Livecycle to piar the fields up in the different docs, and have them all linked. (think that is impossible, hense #1)
4) Your suggestion?
Thanks in advanced.
Ask any questions you may need.

The templates/PDFs designed in LC are primarily can not talk to each other. But we can make them pull and save the information stored in Database through LC workflow. Which will give them ability to transfer data between using SOAP (we can activate these SOAP transfers on certain events or on user actions). But that involves User acknowledging each time the data transfer activated (of-course there is an option to remember the user action and never ask the user but it is controlled by user). Things get complicated once you start in this direction. However we use this technique in our internal environment.

How to build a form with multiple tables in oracle application express

Hi everyone,
I have got problem in building a form with multiple tables.I have a main table with (20) columns and this main table is related to the other tables with the primary key-foreign key relation ship.My requirement is i have to build a form which has fields from many tables and all the fields are related to the main table using (ID) column.In that form if i enter ID field i have to get information from differnt tables.
Please help me to solve this (building a form with mutiple tables)
Thank you

Sans,
I am no Apex expert, but with a situation as "complex" as yours, have you thought about creating a VIEW that joins these 7/8 tables, placing an INSTEAD OF trigger on that view to do all the business logic in the database, and base your application on the view?
This is the "thick-database" approach that has been gaining momentum of late. The idea is to put your business logic in the database wherever possible, and let the application (Form, Apex, J2EE, whatever) concentrate on UI issues,

Multiple sheets in one window - Windows compatible application?

Is there a Windows compatible application that can view a spreadsheet saved from Numbers '09 so the sheets all show up in one window? When I export using the various options in Numbers, then try to open in Excel, I get separate sheets.
I need to work on a project with some Windows techs, would love to be able to do in Windows what we do on Mac...gang up multiple sheets in a single window.
Thanks,
Don

In Excel you can open multiple windows of the same spreadsheet and thereby have more than one sheet viewable at the same time. For Mac it is the menu item Window/New Window. Then you can arrange them on the screen with Window/Arrange. I do not know the equivalent way to do this in the PC version but I'm sure the feature is there. It is useful for viewing 2-4 sheets at the same time but not much more.

Distributing multiple versions of an app within a single Windows Store app

The company I work for creates Point Of Sale (POS) software using Software As A Service (SAAS), so we host our clients' databases. We do not force all of our clients to all be on the same version of our software; i.e. some clients are on version 3,
others v4, others v5, etc. As you would expect, the database schema for each of these versions is different, so each of these clients also use a different version of our client-side app.
We are looking at making a Windows Store app that acts as a light-weight POS app that clients can use to sell their products. The problem is, we will require having multiple versions of our Windows Store app in production; the version of the app that
the client uses must correspond to their database version. We were initially hoping to have our Windows Store app detect which version of the app the client should be using, and then automatically update itself to the correct version, but
were told on this post that it violates the Windows Store certification criteria, so that's not an option.
It has been suggested that we put multiple apps into the Store; one for each version of our software. We really don't want to do this though, as when we upgrade a client's database from one version to the next it would require that they uninstall their current
app and install the newer versions app, causing them to lose all of their custom settings. We would like the updates to remain as transparent to the end users as possible; the store clerk shouldn't need to worry about which version their database is on so
they know which app to download from the Store.
As a possible workaround, is it ok for us to package all 3 versions of our app into a single Windows Store app, and then just have the app check at runtime which version it should run? I assume that this is alright, since we will not be downloading
any other code or installing any software/apps, as was the case with our original solution that violates the certification criteria. Essentially we would just have 3 different classes and determine at run-time which classes code we should run.
I know that this solution isn't ideal, as it means our app will be 3 times larger than it needs to be, and that an update to any one of the 3 versions of our software will require an update to the Store app (so potentially users may download a new version
of the Store app, even though it doesn't have any changes for the particular code version (i.e. class) that they will use), but it's one of the best alternatives we have come up with. I just want to check that this solution doesn't also violate any certification
criteria before we go down this road.
If this is not allowed then our only other alternative might be to go with sideloading (as
I discuss on this thread) and avoid using the Windows Store all together, but we would prefer to use the Store if possible as it eliminates a lot of overhead that we would have to deal with if we use sideloading.
Any insights or suggestions that you can give are appreciated. Thanks!
- Dan - "Can't never could do anything"

Hey Mr_bigworlds, thanks for the reply. The moderator on this post actually told me that this
would be a better forum for my inquiries. I agree that there may be another forum better suited for this question (there are so many that I don't know about), but since this relates to Windows Store certification criteria, I don't think the Windows Desktop
Development forums are the place for it.

Best practice in working with Adobe forms in multiple languages

We have to provide access to some Adobe Interactive Forms in both English and French, some of them from Web Dynpro application(s), some of them as callable objects from Guided Procedures.
1- We know for sure that we can have two copies of each form, one in English and one in French but that implies duplicating the FormCalc and Javascript code behind.
2- Another way if to modify in javascript all labels, captions using some javascript i.e. If lang = "E" then "My label" else "Mon étiquette" . It would work but it is not very efficient.
Is someone here has experience with this type of situation and would be willing to share his experience with me?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Benoit,
For Adobe Forms in multiple language you can use include text solution also . Within this solution you need to add a language parameter in your interface and then retrieve the include text in the language value ( not current language ) . Personnaly i used a lot this solution with Smartforms text .
Also i used dictionnary text for text linked with data dictionnary element . For this there is standard function module in SAP .
Anothers way is in the SFP editor you can translate your form as in SAPSCRIPT .
Hope this help you
Regard.
PS : if necessary i can send you a sample form with smartform/Dictionnary text solution.

Multiple base load in same Hyperion Application

Need to have some clarity over the multiple base load in same Hyperion application. Just to give some background of the requirement our current HFM application captures the base level data in Indian GAAP reporting structure only just like any other incorporation would do in their statutory reporting format. Now we are looking at prospects and possible impact of capturing, at base level data, both as per Indian GAAP and IFRS formats- both being active but populated by different end users.
We would like to receive some valuable inputs as to how feasible it is to capture at base level, financials of different GAAP as part of same application substantiated by an example, if any. In other words what could be the possible challenges and adverse impact because of the the multiple base load. One such impact which I could foresee could be handling of business rules and validations for different base load in the same rule file.
Please provide your valuable inputs on the same.

To clarify the question:
the query asks for multiple base loads - i.e Base / Lowest level data being loaded into the application (loaded thru FDM, Data Forms etc - and not Journals/Adjustments), both for Indian GAAP and IFRS, parallely
The requirement is to specifically load both Indian GAAP and IFRS as base level information - to enable both reporting journeys, in the same application.
i.e:
- 1 base load in Indian GAAP, with related IFRS adjustments to reach financials as per IFRS requirement
- 1 base load in IFRS, with related Indian GAAP adjustments to reach financials as per Indian Gaap requirements
Both hierarchies - operating within the same application - but for two different set of entity hierarchies, for two different end-user groups, with different reporting timelines.
What are your inputs, from a Best Practice approach - whether to develop such structures as part of the same application or go for separate applications - from a design, development, testing and ongoing maintenance perspective

Submit multiple forms with java

Hello,
I have a problem when I am submitting multiple forms with the javascript document.form1.submit();.
I shall explain what my problem is. I have made a JSP that contains some forms. In the forms I post values to external sites. so the action from the forms are http://www.example.com/employee/login. I post my username and password to this external link so I have logged in. So I do this for 20 different sites. so 20 different actions in 20 different forms on one JSP.
Now I have made one button that submit all of this forms. I do this with the javascript document.form1.submit();
document.form2.submit();
etc.
But this is not consistent and I wan't a sollutions in Java so I am sure that all the forms wil execute. Because now he post only some forms and some not. So i want a solid sollution. Can anyone help me.
Thanks in advance,
Henk

I had a similar situation a few years ago, where I needed to close sessions that my application had opened with different servers.
The way I did it was with a secondary browser window, which my "primary" window would control. I had a JavaScript routine that would set the URL of the secondary window, loop with a timer and check the state of that window until the request had completed, then send the next URL, until I had "fired off" URLs to close all of my sessions.
If this sounds like something you'd be interested in doing, let me know and I can post the code here.

How can I create multiple versions of a video within the same project?

OK...this is a probably a very basic question but I'm not sure how to word it clearly.
How can I create multiple versions of a video within the same project? What I mean is that I have a bout 50 minutes of video and I want to make two DVDs using different clips from this original 50 minutes of footage. It would be a real pain to have to re-import the video AGAIN for the second DVD. I suppose I could drop anything I don't want to burn to DVD back into the clips pane but that would wipe out all my transitions wouldn't it? I want to save each project in their “raw” form so I can burn additional DVDs later otherwise I would just do them one at a time and not care about one of them being destroyed.
Wow...that was a mess. Does anyone understand what the heck I’m asking? I hope so.

How can I create multiple versions of a video within the same project?
You can't. You make separate projects using the same or different clips, segments, transitions, titles, etc. You can even duplicate the first project and then modify/make the desired changes in the duplicated project. Each project can then be burned as a different DVD or as different titles on the same DVD if there is enough room.

Hi,
It depends on your popup blocker (built-in or Addon toolbar), tabbed browser settings and IE security settings.
See general tab of Internet Options, Tabs button.
you can specify a target parameter in the navigate method to reuse the one IE window and open each site in a new tab (depending on your settings above).

ORACLE EXPRESS: build a page with multiple forms linked to one table

hi,
im using oravle application express. APEX
i would like to build a page with multiple forms linked to one table (orders) , the page has 4 from each one with different order_id number (depending on filtering), and if the order is prepared click yes for each order and this 'YES' should be UPDATED AND SAVED to each order number in the same table with the press of one button.
i created all the form as (sql query)
and create one update process
(UPDATE ORDERS
SET TRAY_PREPARED =:P10_TRAY_PREPARED_1
WHERE ORDER_ID =:P10_ORDER_ID_1;
UPDATE ORDERS
SET TRAY_PREPARED =:P10_TRAY_PREPARED_2
WHERE ORDER_ID =:P10_ORDER_ID_2;
UPDATE ORDERS
SET TRAY_PREPARED =:P10_TRAY_PREPARED_3
WHERE ORDER_ID =:P10_ORDER_ID_3;
UPDATE ORDERS
SET TRAY_PREPARED =:P10_TRAY_PREPARED_4
WHERE ORDER_ID =:P10_ORDER_ID_4;
i dont know really if i can do that, but it appear hat it actually saving according to order_id number , but not all the time some time it saved the value as "null".
please guide me what is the correct way to do this.

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:-
