Numeric field with restriction of 8 digits

Dear All.
How should i restrict a numeric field with 8 digits length? (without any default validation message).
Thanks,.
VJ.

Hi,
you can use a small JavaScript in the fileds change event to limit the length to 8 characters.
if (xfa.event.fullText.length > 8) {
xfa.event.change = "";

How to multiply a numeric field (with Quantity) with a Cell (text field with price) to get a total?

In Javascript I suggest multiplying the text field by 1 to change it to a numeric type then multiply this with the other numeric field. The code would look something like:
Total.rawValue = numericField.rawValue * (textField.rawValue*1)

Declaring a Number field with specific number of digits and without

Hai Everybody.
I have a small doubt. At the time of creating a Table with column as Number data type, if i do not specify the length of digits, what it will take by default. What are the advantages and disadvantages of declaring the number field without specifying the length.
For example:
Create Table temp1 (col1 number);
Create Table temp1 (col1 number(6));
What is the difference between both the above statements. With the First Statement, what is the maximum number the table will accept.
Which one is better in terms of resource optimisation like alloting the memory space or processing speed or any other resources.
Pl clerify me.
Thanks

NUMBER (6) means an integer, with no more than 6 digits. If you INSERT 12.345, it will automatically get rounded to 12. If you try to INSERT 1234567, it will raise an error.
The default value is NULL in both cases, unless you specify otherwise.

As in so many things, you get what you pay for. If you want the ability to handle larger or more precise NUMBERs, you pay for it in more storage space and less speed.

Problem with pattern numeric field

Hi All.
I tryed to format numeric field with patterns num{zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz9} or num{99999999999999999999}. But when I enter 20 numeric characters like 12345678901234567890 as a result I got 12345678901234567000. How fix that problem?
Thanks.

The result you're getting is correct, because you pattern only allows a period to separate the decimal places.
Try the following edit pattern:
num{zzzzzzzzzzz9,99}|num{zzzzzzzzzzz9.99}
and this display pattern:
num{zzz.zzz.zzz.zz9,99}

Problem in Numeric Field

I have set a numeric field with following things:
Object > field > patterns > display > $1234.21
It works well but when I set expand fit width, it expands but not show "$" and " .00". It just show like 12340000000000.
Or sometimes It shows black + sign right bottom corner though it shows correct format. Where have I made a mistake?
In addition, I have set float type data format.

Hi, sorry I misunderstood your question.
1. remove the edit pattern
2. Add this script in the enter:Event
this.rawValue = null;
3. Add this script in the exit:Event
if (this.rawValue === null)
this.rawValue = 0;

Format Numeric Field

I format a Numeric Field with: 88/99/8888, and now i need a script to make sure that "99" is not greater than 12.
Can someone help me out on this please?

Why not simply use a date control. The user would pick the date from a calendar and you woudl not have to do any checks.
Conversely use a date object would allow you to set a display and edit pattern that would match the date format you want hence having all of this done for you.
If you must go the route you are going here is a simple example of javascript that you could use:
//create a variable to hold the string
var str_temp = TextField1.rawValue;
//Test to see if the string is > 12
if (str_temp.substr(3,2) > "12"){
//The string is graeter than 12 so let the user know
app.alert("You cannot enter a value greater than 12");
//Put the cursor back in the offending field
xfa.host.setFocus("TextField1");
Assuming the field that holds the date is TextField1 and the code is running on some other event in the same context as TextField1.

Limit the number of digits in a numeric field

Hi
I have been searching for the last hour to find out ho i can limit the numeric field on my livecycle form. I have seen lots of java script however nothing seems to work, all i want is for the user only to enter 6 digits (e.g. 123456) and if they try to enter more a message would say that only a 6 digit number can be entered.
This is driving me mad for something i though would be quite simple.
Can anybody help?

I am not 100% on the Javascripting; however in the Object window, Field Section there is an option to put the maximum number of characters in a numeric field. It says "comb of" and then it gives you an option of the maximum number of characters that can be allowed in the field. If you put 6 it will only allow 6 characters. However if that is not something you want you can go to the Value Section within the Object Window and click on the Validation Pattern button. In the Validation tab, in the pattern section type in "999999" and hit apply. It should replace it with "num{999999}" which is 6 numeric values. For a custom error message, in the same Value section, add a custom Validation Pattern Message (make sure to check the error box") and then save your file. If someone tries to put more than 6 values in it should pop up with your custom message. I do find it is easier for the user to understand if you use the comb function instead of the validation pattern. It is a lot more clear to the user on what you need. Just my personal opinion though.

Using LOV with Validation on the Numeric Fields results in Error

Dear JHeadstart Team,
During my work with lov I encountered another problem. I defined a lov and attached the lov to a numeric field and check the LOV for validation. Now when I use LOV using the LOV button it works fine but when I enter some numbers and then press tab the LOV was not shown correctly and resulted in the following errors and the worst thing is that you can not navigate to any other pages and all try to navigate to other pages results in errors too. When we put the same LOV on a string field (which is not desirable for us) it worked fine.
It seems to me like a bug. Am I right? Is ther any solution or workaround for this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Navid

Hi Navid,
We ran into the same bug and have the next workaround for it:
We extended the JHeadstart class 'LovItemBean' and we have overridden the method 'validateWithLov(...)' with:
public void validateWithLov(ValueChangeEvent valueChangeEvent)
    Object newValue = valueChangeEvent.getNewValue();
    if(newValue != null && !(newValue instanceof String))
      newValue = newValue.toString();
      ValueChangeEvent newEvent = new ValueChangeEvent(valueChangeEvent.getComponent(), valueChangeEvent.getOldValue(), newValue);
      newEvent.setPhaseId(valueChangeEvent.getPhaseId());
      super.validateWithLov(newEvent);
    else
      super.validateWithLov(valueChangeEvent);
}Next step is to use a custom template in your JHeaedstart Application Structure file for 'LOV_ITEM_BEAN'. In this custom template you should use your own class as 'managed-bean-class' instead of the default JHeadstart one.
Now you can safely generate LOV with validation of number fields.
Maybe something the JHeadstart can pcik up in the next release of JHeadstart :-)
Hope this helps.

Problem with Action Builder and Numeric Field

Here's my scenario:
I have a form with a numeric field for the PO Amount and a text field for the Role. I tried to create an action builder to do the following:
Condition - When numeric field PO Amount is less than 250,000
Result - Set Value of Role to be Manager
When I enter an amount less than 250,000, nothing appears in the Role text field.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Hi,
this is not so difficult.
You have to use the script editor (about windows)
Then you have to mark your numeric field.
Then you have to select "EXIT" and "JAVASCRIPT".
Then you have to copy the following script:
(I come from germany and I don't know which amount you mean because in german is this switched 1,000.00 $ is in german 1.000,00 $) This is the only thing which you adapt maybe.
if(this.rawValue <250)
TextField1.rawValue = null;
}else
TextField1.rawValue = "Manager";
Hope it will helps,
Mandy

Why is a time/attendance form with many numeric fields slow to fill out?

A form created in LiveCycle 9 and saved as PDF has a table with many numeric fields to fill in number of hours under days of the week and type of activity. The bottom row of the table has total numeric foelds that calculate the total hours. I tried removing the totals thinking that it would speed up filling in the document but it didn't. Is there some limit to the number of fioelds a documents can have without slowing it down? What can be done to speed it up?

I have this issue as well. I created an expense tracking form using the Acrobat X basic calculation tool (not javascripts) and it takes 10 - 15 seconds to move to the next field on an iPad or Android device. On my PC it works great. HELP!
I also tried using a trial version of Acrobat XI with the same result.

How To BLank A Field With A Numeric Value

I am trying to write a formula as follows:
IF {CRD1.U_PriceOnPick} = "N" THEN
ELSE
{ODLN.DiscPrcnt}
My problem is I need for the field not to display if = "N" else I will print the numeric field of {ODLN.DiscPrcnt} . I am not sure how to code a formula that will meet my objective. When I try to save the formula, I receive an error of , "A String Is Expected Here". Any help would be appreciated it.
Thanks Jim Dyer

Cardinal rule of CR, the result of both the IF and ELSE parts must be of the same data type.
Try changing your formula to:
IF {CRD1.U_PriceOnPick} = "N" THEN
ELSE
totext({ODLN.DiscPrcnt});

Script for validating Text fields or numeric fields

I'm looking for a simple script that will check the entered data in a specific field.If i enter numbers in the name/last name field i should get a pop up message that entering numbers in this field are not allowed.
(And vice versa regarding numeric fields).
What is the script for that ?

Hi,
try this:
//var reg = /^\d+$/;    // checks whether input contains ONLY digits
var reg = /\d+/;    // checks whether input contains digits AND letters
var check = reg.exec(xfa.resolveNode("#subform[0].#field[0]").rawValue);
if (check == null)
    app.alert("Everything's fine!");
else
    app.alert("Entering digits is not allowed!");
You may want to replace
#subform[0] with the name of the subform the field to check is located in and
#field[0] with the name of the field to check for digits.
Also, you may want to select any of the regular expressions, which fits best your needs. See comment in the above code-fragement for further information.

Steve

Numeric fields shows ## in Preview from SAP B1

I created a Crystal report layout from the Production order.
If I preview the report in Crystal Reports the data is shown correctly.
When i Preview the report through SAP Business One, all numeric fields, e.g. docnum, quantity, Shows # values instead of the numeric values.
This is SAP B1 Hana.

Hi Janice,
Several options:
If these are discret fiels (single values from a single record), basically the size to display is too small:
The picture suggest the size of the layout for the field in CR, not the size of the field (meaning, saying 2 digits in the format while you have 4 to show),
The size of the display is too small, but I don't take it.
If a summary field, then the report is trying to mix values with different units, which is not coherent; in which case B1 display *

Eric
