OIM user defined field in process form

I am trying to create a user defined field (UDF) in a process form. The UDF would be a drop down list of values for the status field.
I've tried to do this by going to the Administration list, and double clicking on User Defined Field Definition. Then selecting the Form Designer. I can add a column but I cannot add values to the drop down. I know I'm probably doing this wrong.
How do I add a UDF drop down and its values to a process form?
Thanks!

1. Create lookup table for the drop down contents.
2.In the process form--->go to the properties tab-->select the User defined filed name-->add property--->property Name drop down list -->select lookup code-->in the property value-->provide the lookup table name-->save

    Hi,
    if i understand your question correctly,you want to create a new UDF(user defined field) i the user profile for this you need to cretae a udf from the design console, in your case you need to select the users in the form name as you want to add a field in the profile,.
    Select Lookup in the field type after that click on the Properties there you need to attach the lookup corresponding to this in the Lookup code, for this you need to create a lookup with your values that you want show values. Over here you attach this.
    Hope this helps you

  • User Defined Fields on System Form

    Dear All,
                   I want to know that how much User Defined Fields can be added on a system form. My problem is that I am developing an add-on for the Item Master Data. And I have used a lot of User Defined Fields on Item Master Data Forms which contains table 'OITM'. Now if I am trying to add any extra User Defined fields in OITM Table, I am not able to do so. I am getting an error as  'Internal Error Occurred'. What can i do regarding this problem.?  Help me. It is something very important.
    Thanks and Regards

    Hi,
    There is theoretically no limit on the number of UDF for a table. there is however a maximum number of characters for a record in SQL Sever.
    As far as I know this is 4000 in SQL Server 2005 and older and 8000 in SQL Server 2008.
    pls check Microsoft for the exact numbers

  • Accessing user defined fields when multiple forms as open SBO 2005

    Hi
    I have a program which updates a user defined field on the sales order screen. This works fine but fails to work correctly when they have more than one sales order screen open.
    It updates the first sales order screen and not the active one.
    Is there any easy way of accessing the correct user defined form which is attached to the active screen please ?
    Code below -
                For lc = 0 To B1Connections.theAppl.Forms.Count - 1
                    If B1Connections.theAppl.Forms.Item(lc).TypeEx = "-139" Then
                        form2 = B1Connections.theAppl.Forms.GetFormByTypeAndCount("-139", 1)
                        form2.Items.Item("U_bpremarks").Specific.string = orecset.Fields.Item(0).Value
                    End If
                Next
    Many thanks
    Regards Andy

    Hi Paul,
    you got the point - as long as you have always the udf screens open the count is the same !
    no need to say sorry

  • Multi Value User Defined field on OIM user form

    Hi Everyone,
    I have a requirement where i need to assign multiple resources to user as per access policy. These resources should be assign by virtue of some role (custom attribute as of now). The specific requirement is that one user may have multiple roles (and hence resources) and all these values should capture in any user defined field. As the requirement contains multiple Roles so we have to create multi-value user defined field for User form to capture all these role values under single attribute. Does OIM provides any such multi-value field OOTB (lookup, drop down--any customize way we can make them multivalue)?

    He's right. Multi Valued attributes on the User Profile are not available in OIM. If you want to do this, and you have a finite number of possible roles, you can create UDFs for each and map a checkbox or something to it if the user has that value. Then base your acccess policies off those.

  • Want to add a prepopulated User defined field in create user form

    Hi,
    I have an entity adapter which will perform a pre-insert check on the user group of the user logged in to the oim.
    If the logged in user belongs to a group say "IT ADMIN", another validation check will be imposed on the create user action performed by him.
    If not from "IT ADMIN" group then create user action will be handled normally.
    Now the catch is, how would I determine the group name of the user logged in from the adapter code I have written?
    I decided to keep an User defined field "Created by" in the create user form which will be non-editable and auto-prepopulated with the group name of the logged in user. This way I will be able to map the variable field from the User definition drop down list while mapping the adapter variables.
    May you please guide me how I can achieve this?
    Would highly appreciate suggestion/inputs.

    Thanks for all your replies!
    However I am still in dark.
    I tried to retrieve the groupname using tcUSerOperationsIntf. But iit tries to retrieve the group name of the user getting created.
    Please note, the group name I want is not of the user yet to get created, but that of the user creating it i.e., the logged in user.
    My requirement is to have this created_by field in the create user form already prepopulated with the group name of the logged in user.
    So that I can put a check based on this field value in the netity adapter.
    If the group is IT ADMIN then proceed with the validation.
    Else no validation required.
    In short, I want to know,how can I auto-prepopulate a UDF in Create USer form?

  • USR user defined field in OIM design console in not visible

    Hi all,
    We have OIM setup in the environment and wanted to add some custom attributes for USR user defined field definition. When I open the User Defined Field Definition tab, I could not see USR form. When I tried to export specific users from OIM just to check whether USR is visible or not, it is appearing. When I tried to import the same set of users again to OIM, I could still not be able to see USR in OIM design console.
    Any ideas why this has happened? There were no changes in OIM env recently.
    Please help.
    -Mahendra.

    Exported the user in xml file and found that Form Administrator is missing. I added that specific section from other working environment and it is working fine now.

  • Validating User Defined Fields on the OIM User Object

    Hello everyone,
    I'm currently using the OIM 11g, and am curious how to provide data validation for user defined fields.
    We currently have two user-defined fields for day of birth and month of birth, which have been set to required, but I would like to take this a step further and actually validate that the data being entered is numerical (two characters max), and if it's not, a red box appears around the field notifying the admin that the entry needs to fit the expected criteria.
    One example already in OIM is that of the email field. It appears to be using a regex to identify that data entered is of a certain format.
    Can anyone here point me in the direction of some proper documentation so that I may learn how to incorporate this into my environment? Thanks!

    Hi Kate,
    The only way to do it, is with Form Settings. Do not give them authorisations on Form Settings. You can then untick the "Active" tick box on certain fields and tick it on others. This can then be done, when you log on as the user him/herself.

  • Issue while deleting user defined field in oim 11.1.1.3

    All,
    Made a mistake while creating user defined field called "Profile for" (loing to OIM -> advanced -> configuration -> User configuration). We are trying to delete it. It appears to get deleted from user attributes screen. But when we run LDAP User Create and Update Reconciliation Task we get the following error below:
    oracle.iam.ldapsync.exception.ProcessLDAPReconDataException: oracle.iam.ldapsync.exception.ReconEventCreationException: Thor.API.Exceptions.tcAPIException: Profile for - LDAPUser object does not exists for resource object
    Is any thing else need to be deleted adn cleaned up?
    thanks in advance,
    Prasad.

    How do i check what resource object the recon task is running against. here is what i found so far.
    I cannot find LDAPUser resource object when i query Resource Management -> Resource Objects in design console. Same thing with Manage Resource and search (here i only find Xellerate User, Xellerate Organiztion, USERS_GTC, and Installation) in OIM advanced administration menu.
    The LDAP User Create and Update Reconciliation job itself has the following parameters (batch size, last change number, OIM employee type, OIM User organization name, OIM user type)
    I also decompiled LDAPUserChangesReconTask and it is looking for LDAPUser metadata from MDS directly.

  • User-Defined Fields and Form Settings

    I have a User-Defined Field in the table "OCLG" and I'd like to show it in the "Activities Overview for Business Partner - xxx" window.
    Is possibile to do that by the "Form Settings" window? Here I don't find U-D Fields. Is there a way to show them?
    Or is there an other solution?

    Hi,
    This report is hardcoded. You need to create your own report for it. Better by Crystal Report.

  • User Defined Fields Form

    Hi Philipp,
    This is in reference to ur post Dated Jan13,2005. "Opening User Defined Fields Form via API".
    Is it possible for u to give a code snippet. what i'm unable to get is
    - Check if i can get a handle of the UDF-Form in the Mainform Activate-Event
    and
    -disable the close button
    Thanx in anticipation.
    Manu.

    Hi Manu,
    Here is a code snipet where looks for the related UDF form. The FormTypeNum´s value is the same as pVal.FormType property.
    Dim oUDFForm As SAPbouiCOM.Form
    Try
    oUDFForm = con.Forms.GetForm("-" + FormTypeNum.ToString.Trim, con.Forms.Item(FormUID).TypeCount)
    Catch ex As Exception
       con.ActivateMenuItem("6913")
       oUDFForm = con.Forms.GetForm("-" + FormTypeNum.ToString.Trim, con.Forms.Item(FormUID).TypeCount)
    End Try

  • User defined fields in Resource object; Resource object form

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me what is the purpose of having user defined fields for resource object and resource object form and how can we use those fields while requesting for target resource.
    Regards,
    Alabhya Goel

    Thanks for your reply!!!!!!!!!!
    I know about resource object form i am just asking what is the use of user define field in resource object form. How can we use it. Like when we create any user defined field in under User form those fields display on create user form but when we create any user defined field in resource object from those are not displayed in form.
    If anyone has used or worked on user defined fields in Resource Object or resource object form; please give me an overview over the same.

  • Opening User defined Fields Form via API

    Hi
    Is there a posiibility to open those user defined field - forms via API. If yes is it possible to check if it is already open?
    TIA
    Phile

    Hi,
    In your eventhandler, you can use this:
    Set oSboForm = Sbo_application.Forms.GetFormByTypeAndCount(-pval.FormType, pval.FormTypeCount)
    form and udf-form are linked through a minus sign.
    I do not know of a nice way to check if they are anebled. What I'm currently doing is running the above line of code contained in an error handler. The error handler does a sendkeys of control shift u (which enables the udf-form) and displays a message. Problem is after control shift u, screen is not yet updated so your code cannot continue immediatelly. Development knows of this problem, but I never received a promise when this will be fixed.
    Hope this helps,
