Null DFF Context Value in R12

Hi Experts,
Recently we have upgraeded ebs 11.5.10.2 to R12.1.3 .
In 11i , we have DFF at supplier site level ( Title : Vendor Sites).
After upgradation , we are not able to see the context value at supplier site level.
Is there any set-up required for the same ?
Please guide me.
regards
sd

Unable to set DFF context value

Hi,
i want to set DFF context value with a variable, so i tried first to set it with a constant.
in the controller's PR
super.processRequest(oapagecontext, oawebbean);
// first, find the flexfield's handle
OADescriptiveFlexBean oaDFF;
oaDFF = (OADescriptiveFlexBean)oawebbean.findIndexedChildRecursive("DescFF");
oapagecontext.writeDiagnostics(this,"oaDFF=>"+oaDFF ,1);
// default the Attribute Category (DFF context)
oaDFF.setFlexContext(oapagecontext,"QuietanzaErarioStato");
oaDFF.processFlex(oapagecontext);
but it doesn't take any effect, the context's pickilist remains blank.
However i tried the same code with another DFF and it worked. i am wondering if there is some differences between the two DFF.
Any help will be appreciated, it'quite urgent
Thanx

Hi,
Please create a new region thru personalization before the region where u r DFF is present. Use re-order to take the new region before the DFF region.
Set the controller to that new region and the code that you mentioned. This process will sets the context.
Kindly refer the dev guide as i found the above solution from devguide it self.
Thanks

Create Partial Fire action on DFF context value in controller extension

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I will have to default the DFF attribute value based on the context value chosen in the same DFF.
Since the page is a seeded page i have done that using Controller Extension.
I have followed the below steps.
1.I have created one class file XXR2R_AR_BANK_ACCT_EXTCO
2. In that file I have written the following piece of code
+public class XXR2R_AR_BANK_ACCT_EXTCO extends UpdateExtBankAcctCO {+
public void processRequest(OAPageContext oapageContext,
OAWebBean webBean)
+{+
super.processRequest(oapageContext, webBean);
OADescriptiveFlexBean dfb =
+(OADescriptiveFlexBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("FlexField");+ // This is the ID of the flexfield defined in seeded page
FireAction firePartialAction = new FirePartialAction("contextvalchng");
+}+
public void processFormRequest(OAPageContext pageContext,OAWebBean webBean)
+{+
super.processFormRequest(pageContext, webBean);
if ("contextvalchng".equals(pageContext.getParameter(OAWebBeanConstants.EVENT_PARAM)))
+{+
super.processFormRequest(pageContext, webBean);
OADescriptiveFlexBean dffBean =
+(OADescriptiveFlexBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("FlexField");+
OAApplicationModule am = pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);
OAViewObject extVO =
+(OAViewObject)am.findViewObject("ExtBankAccountsVO");+ *// This is the view name corresponding to the DFF fields*
String str = "" ;
OARow row = null;
if (extVO!=null)
+{+
row = (OARow) extVO.getCurrentRow();
if (row!=null)
+{+
str = (String)row.getAttribute("ATTRIBUTE_CATEGORY"); *// here I have retrieved the context value of the DFF*
+}+
+}+
dffBean.processFlex(pageContext);
if ("DEN".equals(str)) *// if the context value is "DEN" then only the defaulting will be done*
+{+
OAMessageTextInputBean mnum = (OAMessageTextInputBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("FlexField1");
mnum.setText("599956");
row.setAttribute("ATTRIBUTE13","6995");
+}+
3. After compiling the .jave file I have placed the .class file in the CUSTOM_JAVA_TOP location and in the seeded page I have placed this CUSTOM_JAVA_TOP top path (in the personalize page section)exactly in the same way where the .class file is.
But when I am changing the context value in the DFF nothing is actually happening.It is never including the custom file behavior.
Please let me know if I am wrong in my coding or my approach.
Thanks
Sudie

Hi,
I think you need to set PPR on one of the segment of the DFF. Following is the code snippet I found few days back in forum. Use this in processRequest() method to set the PPR.
OADescriptiveFlexBean oadescriptiveflexbean = (OADescriptiveFlexBean)webBean.findIndexedChildRecursive("ASNPrdtAddInfoFF"); //DFF ID...in your case it is "FlexField"
if(null != oadescriptiveflexbean)
     oadescriptiveflexbean.processFlex(pageContext);
     //oadescriptiveflexbean.setFlexTableRendered(false); -- useful, if we want to render the items on our own.
     int cnt = oadescriptiveflexbean.getIndexedChildCount(pageContext.getRenderingContext());
     for(int i=0; i<cnt; i++)
          OAWebBean uiNode = (OAWebBean)oadescriptiveflexbean.getIndexedChild(pageContext.getRenderingContext(),i);
          if(null != uiNode && uiNode instanceof OAMessageTextInputBean )
               System.out.println(i + "::::" + uiNode.getLabel() + "::::" + uiNode.getUINodeName()+ "\n");
               if(uiNode.getUINodeName().equalsIgnoreCase("ASNPrdtAddInfoFF2")) //Segment ID...you need to find it out..on which segment you want to do PPR
                    FireAction firePartialAction = new FirePartialAction("Event.termChangeEvent", true); //This is I am not sure but it must be the event name
                    uiNode.setAttributeValue(PRIMARY_CLIENT_ACTION_ATTR,firePartialAction);
Now you need to check for this event in processFormRequest() method. If this event fetched iterate the Vo rows and check the Attribute value there. if the value matched then do the defaulting process.
Hope this helps..

Person DFF Context Value based on 2 criteria (Business Group and Emp Type)?

Hello,
We're implementing HR module into multiple business groups.
I need to define context value for DFF "Additional Personal Details" based on 2 criteria Business Group ID and Employee Type
Any idea how to do it?
Thank you
Elie

Hello Elie,
I am not sure on it,However have you tried creating a context with combination of Business Group and Person Type using merging,
business_group_id || "_"|| person_type_id And structures would be something like 80_2112 Business Group id = 80 and Person Type id=2112.
It may resolve your issue if this works out.

Hi,
I extended CO for defaulting DFF, it is working fine. But the problem is Attributes Also getting default Values and when u search for one record those DFF Attribute values are not showing proper data, but table attribute values having correct data only.

Set default values in DFF context programatically in OAF

Hi Guru's,
In our environment, we have one Context sensitive DFF named Party Information having following context:
GUEST
COMPANY
AGENCY
BANK
SUPPLIER
Now the requirement is if Create Customer page renders, this DFF should show only values- GUEST, COMPANY, AGENCY.
We can not disable the context values BANK, SUPPLIER because this DFF is used at many place so we have to use such logic, if Create Customer page renders
it should display only three context programatically.
I can default the one context programatically by below statement-
OADescriptiveFlexBean custinfoDFFBean = (OADescriptiveFlexBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("personFlex");
if (custinfoDFFBean!= null)
custinfoDFFBean.setFlexContextCode(pageContext, "GUEST");
custinfoDFFBean.setContextListRendered(false);
but don't know how to default with three context.
Could anyone please help me on this?
Thanks...

Rendering Addnl Assign DFF displays Context Value rather than its segments

I am trying to personalize update appraise page to render Additional Assignments DFF but after rendering it to true..... It just displays Context Value rather than its segments........
Oracle Guru's any suggestions?

You need to provide the Descriptive Flexfield Segment List value in the format
Global Data Elements|[global segment1]|[global segment2]||...||Context1|[segment1 for context1]|[segment2 for context1]||...||Context2|....

Xmldocument as xmlvalue context value question

why is it that when i use an xmldocument (wrapped by an xmlvalue object) as a context value for xmlqueryexpression.execute() and if my query returns nodes (rather than scalars like string(), etc), the resulting xmlresults' xmlvalue objects return empty string for .asString()?
i'm completely new to this approach for using xmldocument as a starting query context. i'm trying this because i figure doing this is better than using doc() because you get to reuse the same xmlqueryexpressions objects across different documents.
so for instance:
          XmlDocument document = xmlContainer.getDocument("catalog2", XmlDocumentConfig.DEFAULT);
          XmlQueryContext ctx = xmlManager.createQueryContext();
          XmlQueryExpression expr = xmlManager.prepare("/catalog/journal/article", ctx);
          XmlResults results = null;
          try {
               results = expr.execute(new XmlValue(document), ctx);
               List<String> articles = new ArrayList<String>();
               try {
                    if (results != null) {
                         if (results.size() > 0) {
                              XmlValue value = results.next();
                              while (value != null) {
                                   articles.add(value.asString());
                                   value = results.next();
               finally {
                    if (results != null) results.delete();
               assertEquals(2, articles.size()); // correct!
               for (String string : articles) {
                    System.out.println(string);
                    assertFalse(StringUtils.isEmpty(string)); // empty strings!
          finally {
               results.delete();
               expr.delete();
               document.delete();
any ideas? thanks.

Hi wvuong,
You can reuse xmlqueryexpression objects across different documents simply by XmlQueryContext::setVariableValue().
Here is an example in C++( sorry, I'm not good at Java ). Please refere the docs if you want more details about using XmlQueryContext::setVariableValue in Java.
// Define XmlQueryExpression using "doc_name" as Variable
XmlQueryContext qc = mgr.createQueryContext();
qc.setVariableValue("doc_name", "");
string query = "for $node in doc($doc_name) return <l1>{$node}</l1>";
XmlQueryExpression expr = mgr.prepare(query, qc);
// Using the XmlQueryExpression
string docName = collection_name + "/" + "THE_DOC_NAME";
qc.setVariableValue("doc_name", docName);
XmlResults res = expr.execute( qc );

Dynamically setting DFF Context

Hi Guys,
I have a requirement to dynamically set the DFF context in the CO of the page (depending on various circumstances)
I have used setFlexContext in the following code to successfully set the context for my DFF in the Requisition Headers page:
          //Set the context on the Requisition Header DFF.
          OADescriptiveFlexBean dffBean = (OADescriptiveFlexBean) webBean.findChildRecursive("XXNRReqHeaderDFF");
          try {
                    if (dffBean != null) {
                         pageContext.writeDiagnostics(this, "Ravi: Found XXNR DFF Bean. Setting Context to COOM", 4);
                         dffBean.setFlexContext(pageContext, "COOM");
                         dffBean.mergeSegmentsWithParent(pageContext);
                         dffBean.processFlex(pageContext);
                    else {
                         pageContext.writeDiagnostics(this, "Ravi: Did not find DFF Bean", 4);
          } catch (Exception e) {
               pageContext.writeDiagnostics(this, "Ravi: Could not set the Context", 4);
               e.printStackTrace();
This was a simple page with only one Header DFF instance and the code above works perfectly.
Now I wish to use the same code to set the DFF context on the Requisition Lines Page. The above code does not work there.
The problem is that in the lines page, the DFF gets replicated for each of the requisition Line on the page and I am not able to figure a way out to set context for each individual line.
Did anyone face similar issues before/have any ideas on how to tackle this?
TIA!
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
Please refer below code
public void processFormRequest(OAPageContext pageContext, OAWebBean webBean)
super.processFormRequest(pageContext, webBean);
pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean).invokeMethod("refreshDetail");
pageContext.setForwardURLToCurrentPage(null,true,null,(byte)0);
public void refreshDetail()
Row[] rows = getFndApplicationVO().getFilteredRows("selection","Y");
if (rows != null)
getFndApplicationVO().setCurrentRow(rows[0]);
Please refer topic "Descriptive Flexfield in a Master/Detail Page" in Jdev guide.

DFF default value - SQL Statement

Hi Friends,
I have a mandatory DFF segment on the Sales Order Header and I want to default a value in that segment only for a specific Order Type, not all.
So, When I create a US Order Type, it should default from a value set and the value will be "00000", which is the default value in the value set.
For all other Order Types, it should not default and the user has to select it. How can I write the SQL for this. Thanks.

Hi,
Typically, this is possible only if you make use of DFF contexts.
But using context from each order type is not a good idea.
Why dont you use a personalization that would populate ATTRIBUTEx on the data block if the condition based on order type is true?
If the form is coded correctly, the value will get defaulted into respective column.
Thanks,
Hrishikesh

Initialize all context values at one shot

Hi,
Is there a way i can initialize all the context values of a view. I mean when i click "Reset" all the values should be cleared at one shot instead of setting each value attribute to space.

Hi Aditya,
Whether you use wdContext.invalidate() or wdContext.reset(), all the elements of the entire context will be deleted and hence the table will be disbaled since it's datasource node has no elements. Each row of a table corresponds to an element in it's datasource node. If you create n elements for the node, those many rows will be enabled. So when you remove all the elements of the node, all the rows of the table will also be disbaled. So you have two options here:
1) After removing the elements, create as many of them as required with the default values.
2) Instead of removing the elments, explicitly access each attribute and set it's value to null or space. It will involve just a for loop:
IPrivate<View_name>.I<node_name>Element elmt;
for(int i=0;i<wdContext.node<node_name>().size();i++)
elmt = wdContext. node<node_name>().get<node_name>ElementAt(i);
elmt.set<parameter1>("");
elmt.set<parameter2>("");
Hope this helps,
Best Regards,
Nibu.

Avoiding null and duplicate values using model clause

Hi,
I am trying to use model clause to get comma seperated list of data : following is the scenario:
testuser>select * from test1;
ID VALUE
1 Value1
2 Value2
3 Value3
4 Value4
5 Value4
6
7 value5
8
8 rows selected.
the query I have is:
testuser>with src as (
2 select distinct id,value
3 from test1
4 ),
5 t as (
6 select distinct substr(value,2) value
7 from src
8 model
9 ignore nav
10 dimension by (id)
11 measures (cast(value as varchar2(100)) value)
12 rules
13 (
14 value[any] order by id =
15 value[cv()-1] || ',' || value[cv()]
16 )
17 )
18 select max(value) oneline
19 from t;
ONELINE
Value1,Value2,Value3,Value4,Value4,,value5,
what I find is that this query has duplicate value and null (',,') coming in as data has null and duplicate value. Is there a way i can avoid the null and the duplicate values in the query output?
thanks,
