  • How to pass date parameter from one page to other in BSP application

    Hello gurus,
    In my BSP application i have taken an input field and made its type "date" and its value also of type date and have set showhelp .
    Now once a particular date is given as an input i want to pass its value to next page. And in next page i have to fire a query based on the date entered in previous page...
    Now my prb is that my date value is not getting passed to the next page.
    I have used
    navigation->set_parameter( name = 'BEGDA' value = BEGDA ).
    to pass date parameter.....still parameter is not getting passed.
    plz help me with this.....
    thankx.....

    Hi Eddy,
    By truncation i mean the entire date becomes 10 char including the ' . ' eg(06.12.2006).
    so with begda being 8chars it takes my date as 06.12.200
    as a result my query is not getting executed.
    now i have tried to use a FM  'CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERN_FORMAT'.
    in my 1st page but still in 2nd page its giving me following error.
    <b>The data that was read could not be written to the specified target field during a SELECT access. Either the conversion is not supported for the type of the target field, or the target field is too short to accept the value, or the data is not in the appropriateformat for the target field.

  • Passing data parameter between SWF files

    Hello Xcelsius Gurus,
    Is it possible to pass data parameter between SWF files?
    If possible, how to achieve it?
    Thank you.
    Justine

    Hi,
    Thank you for the reference.  Little bit confused, please let me clarify. 
    I do not understand how the receiver SWF receieved the data parameter and process.
    For example, I have a parent dashboard and a child dashboard.  In the parent dashboard, I have set up combo box to filter the data.  And I want the data that I have selected in combo box to the child dashboard.
    To do this, first I need to setup the flash variable at the parent dashboard to fetch the data I selected.
    After this, how to link this data to the child dashboard?
    Furthermore, after the child dashboard received the data parameter, I need this data to insert into the spreadsheet so I can filter the data.  Is this possible?
    Thanks.

  • How to auto login and pass data (parameter) to ApEx at the same time

    Does anybody know how to automatically login to apex (e.g. from JSP page) and pass a parameter value at the same time? I can use wwv_flow_custom_auth_std to login, I can even choose a page but I cannot pass any data (at least I do not know how). If I use f?p URL syntax I can pass data but there is no way to pass login/password information.
    Any idea? Thanks Jaros

    Jaros -
    You could copy your login page and make the new page "public". On the new page, add a process before the login process that sets the value of application item FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL to the report page URL (with the arguments), e.g.,   :FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL := 'f?p=&APP_ID.:100:&SESSION.::NO::P100_X,P100_Y:&RPT_VALUE1.,&RPT_VALUE2.';Create application-level items RPT_VALUE1 and RPT_VALUE2 in the application.
    From your external page, POST to this new "login" page, passing values for the username, password, rpt_value1, and rpt_value2 items.
    Let us know if it works.

  • Passing date parameter from prompt

    Hi experts
    I am getting some problem while passing date from a dashboard prompt.
    In RPD i have changed the date column properties as DATE only so that i will get the DATE part of the data not the time stamp.
    Now in the dashboard prompt i added a prompt for the date column.
    I initialized the date prompt with a server variable of sysdate
    when i am running the dashboard i am getting default value in the prompt(04/15/2011)
    when i am changing the date it is selected as(04/15/2011)
    but when i am clicking the 'Go' button the date is converting to 2011-04-15 00:00:00 due to which my report is not running and i am getting error as
    View Display Error
    A date value was expected (received "2011-04-15 00:00:00").
    Error Details
    Error Codes: QABPH2PO
    can anyone help me to pass only date part
    thanks in advance
    regards
    Gourisankar

    Hi J / Srikanth
    Sorry to restart the thread again.
    As we discussed i have downloaded the patch and applied to my windows 32 bit machine.
    But now when i run the report the report is running only for the default value(Server Variable) which is specified to the prompt. when i change the date there is no effect to the report.
    When i drill down to the report i found that the date column(is prompted) is changed to teh server variable name which is might be the cause.
    any input on this???
    regards
    Gourisankar

  • How to pass a date as a parameter?

    So what i'm trying to do is call a proc. by passing a paramter that takes the date.
    The table used in the cursor outputs date like so: "4/14/2009 7:00:00 PM"
    So the query looks something like this...
    select game_id
    from cs.years
    where trunc(game_date) in pGameDatepGameDate is defined as: date default sysdate - 15
    So the call of the proc looks like this... call xt.GameIDs (pGameDate)
    My question is how would I pass that date in the call?
    I've tried the following call xt.GameIDs ('25-April-2009') but that didn't seem to work...am I writing out the date incorrectly in the call?

    you are not passing date here its a string you need to convert it into date use to_date('25-april-2009','DD-MONTH-RRRR')

  • Problem with passing date parameters in cursor

    Is there any problem in passing date parameters and like clause as below
    CURSOR eftcursor(start_date DATE, end_date DATE, where_clause varchar2) IS
    select * from r_records
    where created_date between start_date and end_date and description like where_clause;
    and in the open statement

    select to_date('01/07/2010 00:00:00', 'dd/mm/yyyy hh24:mi:ss') into endDate from dual;
    str := '%something%aaaaa%';
    open eftcursor(startDate ,endDate , str);
    Do i need to do any kind of conversion in the cursor where clause or when i am passing the parameter in open statement.

    Almora wrote:

    You might consider whether you really need an explicit cursor though. An implicit cursor is easier to code and performs better.

  • How to Pass a multi-select parameter in BI to a PL/SQL Program

    I am trying to pass a BI report parameter which is multi-select enabled in BI Enterprise Stand-Alone reporting tool. eg. it comes out in the data model like this: <P_CLASS_CODE>[DISABLED_VETERAN_OWNED, HUB_ZONE, LARGE_BUSINESS]</P_CLASS_CODE>
    to a pl/sql stored procedure. (this is some kind of record set)
    This works when passing the parameter as bind variable being passed to and IN CLAUSE. However, In my case I need a little bit more flexibilty with the programming so I need to get the value into PL/SQL so I can work with the individual values in the record set.
    I am trying to figure out which collection type or record type I can use in pl/sql to be able to parse out the elements in the collection from within a stored procedure so I can loop through the elements.
    I am trying to call the BI before report trigger in the data template like this:
    <dataTrigger name="beforeReportTrigger" source="XXAPRPT03_SUPPLIER_DIVERSITY.before_report_trigger(:p_class_code)"/>
    this call refers to the default package
    I get this error: 'Invalid column type'
    what type should I be using in my procedure definition to support the multi-selection record set which my parameter is passing from BI.

  • Problem in passing data from 1 screen to another using BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI.

    Hi Experts,
    i am new to the SRM, i am facing problem in passing data from one screen to another.
    my requirement is that when we select one shopping cart and press the PROPOSE SOURCES OF SUPPLY button, we will fetch all the contracts that are attached to the shopping cart.
    we have implemented a BADI implementation of BBP_SOS_BADI (method BBP_SOS_CHECK) for passing some changed values to the contracts of the shopping cart into the popup screen that is displayed when we press PROPOSE SOURCES OF SUPPLY button and when we select any contract and press ASSIGN ONLY button in the popup screen the badi BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI is triggered.
    i have implemented another BADI implementation of BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI for fetching the selected contract and pass the values to another screen, but the problem is that when we select one contract and press the assign only button we are fetching the wrong contract number ( that is in the BADI method BB_SC_CHANGE parameter IT_ITEM we are fetching the wrong contract), if we again do the same procedure for the second time we are getting the correct contract.
    i am unable to understand why we are getting the wrong contract in the first time( that is we are getting contract other than the selected one).
    as per my understanding i think when we are passing data to the popup screen using BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI we are not updating the shopping cart with the changed data.
    can anyone tell me how we can update the SHOPPING CART with the changed contracts data, i have used BBP_PD_SC_UPDATE, BBP_PD_SC_SAVE and other shopping cart FM but nothing is happening.
    Thanks
    Tanveer

    Hello,
    What version of SRM are you on?  Have you check for OSS Notes?  I have had trouble with BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI but it was because of other issues.  The BADI works pretty well and it is called almost every time something happens to the shopping cart.
    I have noticed that sometimes that values are not changed til the second calling of the BADI.  I have yet understand why but I think it has to do with prompt processing. Usually, we train our requisitioners to click the 'Check'  button to flush things out.
    I don't know if I was helpful.... another thought.... could there be an error caught by BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI that is preventing change in BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI?
    Regards, Dean.

  • Passing data from one bsp application to another

    Hi,
    I have few queries that most of you would have done in ur projects:
    1. I want to pass data from one bsp application to another:
    eg based upon selected row of table view which populates material no and descriprion to another application which open the entire material master data.
    Now, i have both the pages in diff bsp applications in place but unable to pass the selected material code to the second bsp application.
    Had it been two different pages of same application I was able to achieve it with set parameter()
    2. To stop the application from reprcessing the data:
    eg: Suppose I have a bsp page where user fill details of a customer and on submitinng the details a customer is created in background and the entire page is disabled by my code. Even now if the user press refresh (F5) button then another customer gets created in the background. So basically i want to avoid the reprocess of the onSubmit event
    Few lines of sample code would be very helpful.

  • How to pass more than one parameter using common...

    Hi,
    I am using ODP.NET with my 2005 VB

    Hello,
    I used the following way:
    pCommand.CommandText = "Update " + sDataTable + " set "
    + sColumnName + " = :1 ";
    pCommand.Parameters.Add("ValueToDb",
    this.DefaultDbType,
    this.m_Value,
    System.Data.ParameterDirection.Input);
    Of course, you can add :2,... to your command text, too.
    The way back is:
    sEndOfTheClause += " RETURNING " + sDataTable + "." + sColName + " INTO :iNewValue";
    pCommand.CommandText = ... + sEndOfTheClause;
    pCommand.Parameters.Add("iNewValue", this.DefaultDbType,
    ParameterDirection.Output);
    bool bReturn = (pCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() != 0);
    if ((bReturn == true) && (pCommand.Parameters.Count > 0))
    this.Value = DataService.Convert<DATA_TYPE>(pCommand.Parameters[0].Value);
    ....
