Problem using when-validate-trigger

Dear Experts,
After validating a item value, I want to navigate to a specified item besed on that item value. If i use go_item('item1') in when-validate-trigger, error comes, beacuse we cannot use restricted built-in go_item in when-validate-trigger. If i use key-next-item on 'item1' for validating item value then while navigating through mouse it does'nt fire.
Please let me know which triiger i should use?
Thanks

There is no easy way to do this, however you could create a timer in your when-validate-item trigger which expires immediately, and place all of your navigational code in the when-timer-expired trigger - this way you could check the value which has been entered and navigate accordingly.

  • Problem with when validate trigger

    Hi All,
    I am using oracle forms 10g.
    I have developed a custom form In that i have two block Header block and Detail block.In the header block some fields like Po number, po amount , supplier name, supplier site etc. And in the detail block i have po line details.
    I have written a validation trigger under supplier name and supplier site, IF block.supplier_name is null then
    message('enter supplier name') same under every field.
    Now when the user enter po number it will go to po amount field and now when the user press tab it will go to the details block and query all the po related line,so i have written key-next under po_amount go-block and my code, Its works fine and giving the correct output. But the problem is When validate trigger fires when i press tab in PO Amount fields, Once i press ok it going to details block and querying.
    Can any one explain me what i have done wrong. The validation trigger is firing and giving message.
    Regards

    Hi, the way I use to solve this problem is using both: key-next-item and when-validate-item. In the w-v-i you make the validations you need (this control mouse navigation) and in the k-n-i code write:
    -- first validate the values, to avoid invalid values
    execute_trigger ('when-validate-item');
    -- if trigger fire corectly then you can go to the item you want..
    if my_item = 'A' then
    go_item(my_next_item1);
    elsif my_item = 'B' then
    go_item(my_next_item2);
    end if;

  • How to use when-validate-item in the form personalization?

    Dear all,
    I want to use when-validate-item trigger in the form personalization on a specific item. while in the same time the when-validate-item is not included in the trigger event list.
    Please advice & Thanks in advance

    Use condition. If you are validating a record, just out the desired check in the condition field for that specific item.

  • Issue with When Validate Trigger firing multiple times

    Hi guys,
    I have Designed a Form Personalization on a Form which Fires a concurrent Program (built in:execute Procedure) when a Record is Saved.
    Below are the issues I am facing:
    1.Concurrent Program is Firing Multiple Times after Saving the Record.
    2.2 input Values to Concurrent Program are passed as NULL though I have Data but they are in Different Block of Form.
    Note :I have When Validate trigger on 1 Block but i am trying to pass 2 Values on Another Block as input parameters for Concurrent program.But those values are getting as null when program fires.
    Thanks.

  • Restricting User from creating new records using when-validate-record

    Hi,
    I have a requirement for which I have to restrict he user from creating a record in the Supplier Master form if the suppliier type is 'Affiliate Supplier'.
    I have done the following setups
    Seq 10
    Description Restricting user from creating Affiliate records
    Level Function
    Enabled Yes
    Condition:
    Trigger Event WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD
    Trigger object VNDR
    Condition "${item.VNDR.VENDOR_TYPE_DISP_MIR.value} is NOT NULL
    and
    ${item.VNDR.VENDOR_TYPE_DISP_MIR.value} LIKE 'Affiliate%'
    Processing Mode BOTH
    Context
    Level User
    Value User Name
    Action Sequence 1
    Type Message
    Action Description Saving Affiliate record
    Language ALL
    Message Type Show
    Message Text You Cannot Create Affiliate records Here
    Action Sequence 2
    Type Builtin
    Action Description Stop Proceesing
    Language ALL
    Action Enabled Yes
    Builtin Type RAISE FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE;
    This is working good on one instance but when I moved it to another instance
    when I query the form and try to navigate to the bank accounts tab of the form which is based on a differnt block i.e VNDR_USES block, the when-validate-record trigger fires there also and stops the processing.
    Any suggestions on this would be higly appriciated.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi Srini,
    Yes, it does work...but in a Form Session if i Create more then one Item, in some cases it fires for the first records and not sleeps for the second.
    Sometimes it doesn't give any response.
    Appreciated if you divert to the link to check the Pacthes for 11.5.10 on Form Personalization.
    Please share any ideas/example if yiou have to achieve the below requirement.
    Requirement:
    Once New record is created , a Custom Procedure should be invoked.
    with out closing Form i am able to create n number of Items, so for every Item it should invoke Custom PLSQL Code on Save.
    Let me know if i can achieve the same in Custom.pll .....as i can use either of Options.(Form Personalization/Custom.pll)

  • How to invoke when-validate trigger

    Hi all ,
    I just want to know how can i Invoke when-validate-item trigger of another item by without navigating to that item.
    Exampls. I have two items A and B
    I want to invoke item B's when-validate-item trigger by keeping the focus on A or being in A .

    first: write procedures for each when-validate.
    e.g. WVI_name_of_the_item_A and WVI_name_of_the_item_B
    then you start this procedure in item A and the other in item B.
    now you can use the validation-procedure of B inside the validation of A
    try it

    Hi,
    Probably your first select statement itself throwing the error - ora-01403
    So may be try to include an exception part for your code, to catch the exception ora-01403 -no data found
    and there display the messgae- 'Please check the Order'.
    Hope it will work then

  • When Validate Trigger is getting executed when Execute_query

    i have a data block in which i have 2 text item. i have defined when validate item.
    when the form is starting up i have given execute_query. before fetching the values my when validate item is getting executed. i dont want to do this. can one help me out in this case

    Hi,
    Can you pls. check any initial value is given or not? Otherwise for quick solution you can declare a parameter upon which when-validate will validate the value. You can change value before and after 'EXECUTE_QUERY' statement. This is not a good idea.

  • What trigger to use when wanting to form commit information

    Want to commit information from form to database.
    Only appears I can use when button push
    The on validate record does not facilitate form commit
    In previous forms versions used a post update trigger
    however this one is not valid/recommended anymore.
    THX IN ADVANCE

    Thank you Sanjay for your response. I am currently using When Validate Trigger. It works for all the scenarios except when order line is cancelled.
    When line cancelled I should rewrite the order quantity to 0 and save then only DFF's are updating to 0's.
    Thanks,
