Process Checkbox in Dynamic Report Row (APEX 4.1)

Question

I have a dynamic report with the following source.
SELECT ut.user_id,
       ut.username,
       ut.login_attempts,
       ut.active,
       ut.employee_id,
       e.last_name || ', ' || first_name AS EMPLOYEE_NAME,
       fact_custom_auth.get_groups(ut.user_id) AS GROUPS,
       APEX_ITEM.CHECKBOX2(1,ut.user_id) AS CHK
FROM fact_users_tbl ut, employee_tbl e
WHERE ut.employee_id = e.employee_id
ORDER BY username;I have a button on the same page that I want to process the rows that are checked when I click it. I am using a Dynamic Action to do this. The dynamic action has 2 true actions, Execute PL/SQL Code and Submit Form. The button "appears" to do something when I click on it but the code in Execute PL/SQL is not doing what I expect it to do which is update the login_attempts to 0.
Here is the code for the Execute PL/SQL Code.
FOR i IN 1 .. apex_application.g_f01.COUNT LOOP
  UPDATE fact_users_tbl SET login_attempts = 0 WHERE user_id = to_number(APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01(i));
END LOOP;Where am I going wrong?

Answer 1

MrPrice22,
If I understand correctly, what your trying to do is to update the table fact_users_tbl as many times as checked rows you have when clicking a button.
My question will be: Why are you using an Dynamic Action instead of a "On Submit Process"?
About your code:
FOR i IN 1 .. apex_application.g_f01.COUNT LOOP
  UPDATE fact_users_tbl SET login_attempts = 0 WHERE user_id = 81;
END LOOP;I don't see any "COMMIT", so....
In the other hand, if you're executing the PL/SQL code before the submit the apex_application.g_f01 array may have no values cause the values have not been submited yet.
Try to use your Dynamic Action just to submit the page using the apex submit from the javascript API. That way you can submit the page and send a Request, then create a procedure that executes On Submit and add a condition for that procedure, this condition will be the Request that you send from the Dynamic Action.
javascript:apex.submit({request:"Process_Checks"})The easiest way to do this is just to asign the Submit Action to your button and create a On Submit Procedure that will be executed only when the button is clicked.
By the way, don´t forget to add a COMMIT
Try this and let me know if it works!
