Personalized Checkbox Required but accepts empty value

Hello everyone,
I have an issue with trying to personalize an R12 E-business suite log in page.
After I have added a check box and written a security banner, I would like to make checking the check box required for users in order for them to log in.
I've created the check box, I've set it to required and you can still log in without checking the box.
It's my understanding there is something called SPEL, or it seems there is a method that is referred to on the forums as CO, however I'm terribly new to e business suite and my background is in linux administration and database installation, and I'm not sure what either of those even mean.
I'm afraid it's something of an urgent requirement for me, so any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
I am not sure you need to for SPEL, as he mentioned you can go for Controller extension and
in your extended controller ProcessFormRequest get the checkbox value if it is not checked throw a message to select the checkbox.
The SPEL is used mainly to get the value for the bean dynamically.
It is mainly used to render/hide , disable/ enable the fileds depending upon the attribute associated in the SPEL.
For more information have a look at the developer guide.
Thanks,

Checkbox required but not checked when sending a form

Hello,
I created a form with some required fields, included a checkbox.
When I send the form, the fields are checked if not filled in, but the form is ent even if the checkbox is not "checked" !
Why ?
X56

The required property of check-boxes is not enforced by Acrobat/Reader.
I explained in a reply earlier today how to make it so that it does get validated, like other fields. See: http://answers.acrobatusers.com/checkboxr-q127778.aspx

UDF of type "Lookup" - doesn't accept "space/Empty" value in lookup defn

Hello there,
I have created a Combo Box UDF field - but I don't want to put any value in it. If I give only "space" in Encode and Decode - it gives error of providing some value to it. I want to give a default blank value over there along with other values so that the user is free to declare an empty value if he/she doesn't wants to provide one otherwise the user has to mandatorily provide some value to this like "NULL/zzz/NOTHING" as a string.
Is there anyway we can achieve this - giving blank value in a lookup/combo field ?
TIA,
- oidm.

I don't think you can enter nulll/space in decode.
For Lookup Field Code as well as Decode can't be null.
If you want to give blank so it is not possible APMK, in decode you can give ---. You can treat it as Blank.
Code Key > NULL
Decode > ---

Bug in forms- Won't submit because required field is empty but it is not...

Hello,
I have the same bug in both our corporate and French website.
When someone fill in the form, it says that one of the required field is empty, even when it is not:
I put the form in a test page at www2.smasolutions.it/test.html
Please, help me as quickly as you can as the websites are live. We put the simple form for now as it is the only one that is working but we need to grab more info !
Thanks

Esther,
The field with the label 'Société*' is actually the email field, so it requires a valid email address.
I suspect you changed the label name in Muse from 'Email' to 'Société*'. Change the name of the label back to 'Email' so it's clear to the user what they need to enter in the field...

Person or Group colum in the SharePoint list retrieves empty value for Mobile phone property

Person or Group colum in the SharePoint list retrieves empty Mobile phone for some users although thoses users have Mobile Phone values in the User Proifles. This happens only for some users. For some users it shows Mobile phone for
some days and after some days it dess not show Mobile Phone though Mobile Phone entries are in the User Profiles for those users.
Appreciate any help to fix this.
Thanks in Advance!

Hi Narayana,
According to your description, my understanding is that the person or group column retrieved an empty value for Mobile phone in SharePoint 2010.
Please go to the hidden User Information List using
http://<SiteCollectionUrl>/_catalogs/users/detail.aspx , check the value of Mobile phone.
Please go to CA->Monitoring->Review job definitions, scroll to User Profile to SharePoint Full Synchronization
and
User Profile to SharePoint Quick Synchronization, make sure they work well.
In addition, please take a look at :

I hope this helps.
Thanks,

Passing null/empty values from a actionscript VO to a Coldfusion ORM object

This is the situation.
If you have an actionscript VO that binds to a Coldfusion ORM object via the RemoteClass metadata and some of the values are not set, null, or empty strings and you pass it from Flex to Coldfusion then the Coldfusion deserialization barfs saying the values are not acceptable date values (for type="date") or valid emails (for validation="email") or other such validations, even if required="false" on the property.
For instance, if you have the following actionscript VO:
package vo
    [RemoteClass(alias="com.companyname.Person")]
    [Bindable]
    public class Person
        public var person_id:Number;
        public var last_name:String;
        public var first_name:String;
        public var email:String;
        public var created_date:date;
     public function Person() {}
And you have the corresponding Coldfusion component:
<cfcomponent displayname="person" output="false"
    alias="com.companyname.Person"
    schema="dbo" persistent="true"
    table="PERSON">
    <cfproperty name="person_id" type="numeric" fieldtype="id" validate="integer" required="true" column="PERSON_ID"/>
    <cfproperty name="last_name" type="string" column="LAST_NAME" required="true"/>
    <cfproperty name="first_name" type="string" required="true" column="FIRST_NAME"/>
    <cfproperty name="email" type="string" validate="email" required="false" column="EMAIL"/>
    <cfproperty name="date_created" type="date" required="false" column="DATE_CREATED"/>
</cfcomponent>
Then if you pass the actionscript VO as is to Coldfusion, the deserialization complains that you do not have a valid email or a valid date for date_created. This is bad, bad, bad. Essentially if you have a validation of certain types (email being one) or a date property, or probably some other cases, then you essentially can not make it not required, it automatically makes it required because the Coldfusion serializer considers null/empty values as invalid dates or emails. But the serializer should not care for values that are not required, there has to be a way to pass null/empty values to these data types, but apparently there's not. If you pass an empty string ("") you still have the same problem. I know Coldfusion does not have null values, but there has to be a way to do this, otherwise it defeats the purpose of having required="false" and some kind of validation on the property.
There seems to be two ways around it. One is to override the implicit setters for the properties on the Coldfusion side and check for 0 length values yourself, then set the property if it is not, or create your own validation routine. I ended up creating my own validation function since I didn't want to have to write a setter function for everyone of these cases and I can pass back user friendly validation messages.
Have other people encountered this problem? How have you gotten around it? Thanks.

I realize that I didn't clarify that I am using ColdFusion
for getting the data. This class was generated by the Create CFC
wizard in Flex Builder.
package com.generated
[Managed]
[RemoteClass(alias="components.generated.clients.Clients")]
public class Clients
public var clientid:Number = 0;
public var clientfirstname:String = "";
public var clientlastname:String = "";
public var clientaddress1:String = "";
public var clientaddress2:String = "";
public var clientcity:String = "";
public var clientstate:String = "";
public var clientzip:String = "";
public var clientphone:String = "";
public var clientemail:String = "";
public function Clients()
}

Looks like a known workaround to this issue is to wrap the Flex object in an array.
The ColdFusion CFC will accept that as an array, with the first an only element being a struct, which is the object you built in Flex.

Remove null & empty values

I created a report with multiple fields. I would like to create a generic formula in which it evaluates all the values and if it found a null or empty value it will be replaced by a 'N/A'. I was searching in the forums and I found the following formula
if (isnull() or ( ='')) then
"Display the required text"
else
when I tried to use it i had an error that the value must be boolean. Is there is a way where I can change all the fields as string?? and a assign "N/A"
or
how can I assign a "N/A"to a boolean field??
also I have approx. 140 fields to evaluate, does the formula can be generic or I will need to create a formula for each variable??
thanks

Usually when Crystal runs across a field that is NULL, it immediately stops executing the formula, unless the field is enclosed within IsNull(). However, I'm not sure if that is the case for a parameter being passed to a function. So, you may be able to create a function like (Formula Workshop -> Create Custom Functions -> Add; basic syntax):
function DisplayString (inVal as string) as string
if (isnull(inVal) or (inVal ='')) then
DisplayString = "N/A"
else
DisplayString = inVal
end if
If Crystal does stop when passing a NULL value as a parameter, then you could code a similar function (without the isnull()), and check the Convert NULL Database Values to Default option on the File -> Report Options panel.
You would need to create one such function for each data type that you want to show "N/A" for, and for data types other than string, convert the value to a string when it is not null.
These functions could then be used in the Display String formula for the field on the report.
The only other way I can think of achieving this would be to base the report(s) on an SQL Command and convert NULL values to "N/A" there. It might be a bit easier to do in an SQL Command, but probably not a whole bunch.
Or, educate your users that when nothing is printed, it means that it's not applicable!

How to define null or empty value in BAPI function modules?

Hi,
I have problem with BAPI functions, where some parameters are mandatory.
For example: when I try to use HR BAPI's(BAPI_PERSDATA_CHANGE, etc.) I have to insert parameters like SUBTYPE,OBJECTID,LOCKINDICATOR. The PA0002 table that is used from this BAPI doesn't have SUBTYPE, OBJECTID, LOCKINDICATOR, for any of the records that I would like to select.
So what I tried, was to put a ' ', to indicate that is empty. It returned an error message saying "Make an entry in all required fields". Next tried to put in some values for these fields -- and it returned an error message saying "No data selected from 0002 for this period".
I also tried to run BAPI_FAMILY_CHANGE that uses data from table PA0021. Here I found some records with SUBTYPE, OBJECTID fields that were not empty, but LOCKINDICATOR was still missing. So I tried to put LOCINDICATOR value directly in to database (with MS SQL Enterprise Manager). After that I was able to use BAPI_FAMILY_CHANGE.
I think that manually inserting data in database is not normal procedure.
Is there something that I have missed out?
I mean -- how can I get this to work without inserting data directly in database?
How can I define null or empty value in BAPI function modules?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Mihail

Defining an empty value for a parm in a table is easy.
First get the function's definition from the SAP system
Second only populate the fields for which you have a value to set
Third execute the function.
The JCO takes care of the rest.
Enjoy

Can we a condition type in PO, accepts negative value & vendor no.

Hi freinds,
i have a query,
can we a condition type in PO, where user can enter negative value and can assign a vendor against that condition type as like freight vendors in import PO.
now what i have done is , i have created a condition type which can accept negative value , but unable to assign vendor against it.

Making a checkbox required?

Is there any way to make a checkbox required in Live Cycle like you can with text areas. The text areas have a field called Type in the Value tab called "User Entered - Required" but checkboxes do not. Thanks.

Hi Subhash,
Yes, you can get IWDMessageManager in the wdDoModifyView() method but as said correct by you, you can't get it directly as this is a static method.
You can get the message manager in the following way:
IWDMessageManager msgr = wdThis.wdGetAPI().getComponent().getMessageManager();
Reward points for the useful answer.
Warm Regards,

Can the parser accept empty integer tags ?

I am making use of a EAI tool called SeeBeyond. This makes use of the j2sdk-1_3_1_02 Java Compiler.
In the application I make use of a XSD to parse XML data. Because the data comes from another source, some tags are not populated with data, witch is correct. The problem is these tags are of type Integer. The java compiler gives back an error stating that an integer value is required.
Does this indicate that the xml tag MUST be populated with a value or can it accept NULL values?
XSD snippet:
~~~~~~~~~~
<xs:complexType name="AssetModel">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="test1" type="xs:integer"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
XML Data snippet:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
<AssetModel>
<test1/>
</AssetModer>

Thanks for the link
On the same website they make use of empty integer type tags, which leaves me thinking if it is not allowed.... I validated the data in XML SPY and it validates the empty tags without any problems. One of the other programmers here used the XML in C# and the MS XML Parser could import the data into SQL Server.
http://www.w3schools.com/schema/schema_complex_empty.asp
I could not find any referal to this on W3C.org

How to accept user values into a pl/sql procedure or function on every execution

As we accept user values on every execution in a C or a java program, is it possible to do so with a pl/sql procedure or a funtion without using parameters?
I cannot use parameters because it is required to be interactive while accepting the user-values like,
Please enter your date of birth in 'dd/mm/yyyy' format:

It depends from where you are calling your PLSQL routine. If it is SQL*Plus then you can use & (ampersand) with the variable to be input at run time.
If you are executing the PLSQL routine from another application (some front end application) then it's not possible. Because when a procedure is executing at server side, the front end application does not have control, and the control is only transfered back to front end application when the PLSQL routine either completes successfully or throws an exception.
In either case, you can not go back to the PLSQL routine.
In this case, what you can do is, write code in your front end application to get that variable value from user and then pass that value to PLSQL routine.

How can I pass empty value in URL Parameter

Hi,
I am passing different URL parameters to one page, to filter
the recordset on that page. How can I pass an empty value in the
URL parameter so that the recordset in unfiltered?
The URL parameter is based on one field of the database:
ContentType. So, the link would be to
default.asp?ContentType=Event
and then all records that have the ContentType field in the
DB as Event are displayed. Is it possible to use this system to
pass an empty parameter so that all records are displayed?
Thanks
Ian

?ContentType=All
<% if (ContentType == "All")
Build recordset w/o filtering
ASP is rusty, but those are the basics.
