Refresh report title with dynamic action

Hi all,
I have a report that is refreshed with an dynamic action. When the refresh is performed, first the value of two hidden variables are set (P2_ID and P2_NAME) and are submitted (using a dynamic action type 'pl/sql', with code 'null;' and page items to submit: P2_ID,P2_NAME).
In the query of the report, i use :P2_ID in the where-clause. That's all working like a charm! The one thing that doen't work, is the title of the region: that's defined as 'Properties of &P2_NAME.', but the title isn't refreshed when the report gets refreshed.
Is there a solution for this? I hope I'm clear enough.

See Re: Dynamic action - Refresh
So you are right; the native Refresh action just refreshes the report content, it does not perform &ITEM. substitutions everywhere in the region.
What you could do is use a named SPAN as the title like &P2_NAME. and add a TRUE action to your Dynamic Action to set the title using Execute Javascript code $s('my_title',$v('P2_NAME'));Hope this helps.

Calling a BI Publisher report from a dynamic action

Greetings,
I am working with Apex 4.1.0. I have created a BI Publisher query and layout and defined them in the Shared Components for my application. I also created a button defined as 'Download Printable Report Query'. When I press the button, everything works as expected. The page variable is passed to the report and the report prints as it should.
My question is, can I run this report using a Dynamic Action instead of a button?
Thanks
Larry

Hi,
All that such a button does is submit the page and branch to page zero passing in the request field something like this:
PRINT_REPORT=my_report
So, to do the same in a dynamic action, use an "execute javascript code" action with something like this in it:
location.href = 'f?p=&APP_ID.:0:&SESSION.:PRINT_REPORT=my_report';

Set value in tabular form field with dynamic action

Hi Guys,
I have a dummy field in a tabular form which I am trying to use to populate another field in the tabular form when it is changed.
In the tabular form I have an ITEM_ID field. Each item_id has an ITEM_NAME which is the dummy field as it is not a field in the database table.
When the user enters an item name, I would like something like a dynamic action to fire, populating the ITEM_ID.
e.g User enters part no ABC into the dummy field. When they tab out, I want the value to the item_id field on the tabular form row to be populated based on a SQL query in a similar fashion to how it can be done with dynamic actions on text items on a form.
I am using APEX v4.0.0
Thanks in advance
Chris

Hello Chris,
Why can't you use Select List Item on tabular form, which will display all item_names and return item_ids?
If the list is huge and you need users to type & search, then you can use Pop-up LOV item.

Multiple Select List does not Refresh with Dynamic Action

All,
Scenario:
Using APEX 4.2.2, I have a Select List page item (P4_SPONSOR) set to allow multiple values which has a dynamic LOV to populate the list. What I would like to do is highlight the display values based on another page item's value (P4_DRIVER_ID). When I set the source of P4_SPONSOR to static text, such as a delimited string of 1:2:3:4, any display values where the return values are equal to the static text are highlighted when the page loads.
Problem:
The problem lies in trying to use a query as a source for P4_SPONSOR which is filtered based on the other page item, P4_DRIVER_ID. For instance, my SQL Query (returning colon separated values) returns the same as the static text noted above. In the query's WHERE clause, I specify that the driver's ID is equal to P4_DRIVER_ID:
SELECT sponsor_id
FROM sponsors_drivers_xref
WHERE driver_id = :P4_DRIVER_ID;
This, as I understand it, would necessitate a refresh of P4_SPONSOR whenever the value of P4_DRIVER_ID changes. So, I have a Dynamic Action that does just that. When executed on the page, I can see the P4_SPONSOR multiple select list actually refresh, but none of the display values become highlighted.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
-Seth.

Seth,
A dynamic action refresh of your select list will refresh the list of values (this is what you are seeing), it will not refresh the value of the item itself. In fact, it will remove any values that you had already selected. To refresh the value you will need to add additional dynamic actions.
Create another dynamic action with:
Event: After Refresh
Selection Type: Item(s)
Item(s): P4_SPONSOR
If this was a normal select list you could just create a Set Value action and use your query to set the value of the select list. Since this is a multiple select list your will need to get your colon delimited value first and then use some javascript to set the values of your select list.
Create an hidden page item name P4_SPONSOR_TEMP.
Add a true action to your new dynamic action:
Action: Set Value
Set Type: SQL Statement
SQL Statement:
SELECT sponsor_id
FROM sponsors_drivers_xref
WHERE driver_id = :P4_DRIVER_ID;
Page Items to Submit: P4_DRIVER_ID
Selection Type: Item(s)
Item(s): P4_SPONSOR_TEMP
Add another true action to your new dynamic action:
Action: Set Value
Set Type: JavaScript Expression
JavaScript Expression:
$("#P4_SPONSOR_TEMP").val().split(":")
Selection Type: Item(s)
Item(s): P4_SPONSOR

Smartform of a particular employee with dynamic actions

Hi All,
I am making an HR smartform - pulling data from infotypes - so I am using logical database pnp. Now Everytime I enter the personal number in the PNP screen, it gives me form with correct data of respective employee.
I want to club this smart form's driver program to a dynamic action, so the personal number would ne chosen dynamically. For that I believe we have to choose HR report category from program attributes of driver program as '0000003'.
If I do that and hardcode the employee number it do not takes it but it starts printing smartforms of all the employees - even if I keep the report category as 0000001, it asks for a personal number at runtime,n do not takes hardcoded value - The getpernr statment is not fetching up the data for that particular employee but it pulls data for all employees.
Please suggest how could I use the hard coded value of pernr to get the resp3ective data in the smartform. Do I have to create another report category - a new one? if so how?
If u have any sample code? Please share it.
Thanks
Ribhu

Hi Suresh, I was just testing it by hardcoding, wheather it takes the pernr from places other than input box of the report category. Right.
Below is the code. If you want to know anything else, Please let me know.

HELP Filtering and IReport with Dynamic Actions

Hi all,
Now that I've upgraded to 4.0, I'm trying to make more use of Dynamic Actions. I followed the example at: http://anthonyrayner.blogspot.com/2010/07/report-filtering-with-apex-40-dynamic.html and it works fine. The thing is that it is based on a select list which kind of takes away from the effect. What I want is to have an interactive report which is filtered by the value in a text box. I want to use a dynamic action that when a user types a search string, the IR is filtered down based on each character typed. I used the "Change" Event on the text box and the Refresh action on the report region for the IR, but it only refreshes when I "Enter" (submit). Any ideas on how I can get an AJAX-like action using dynamic actions?
Thanks!!!

Hi,
See this post
APEX 3.2 Refresh interective report
It works also for Apex 4.
You can call javascript that set your item session state and refresh IR like in that post

Problem setting a hidden item value when button clicked with dynamic action or pl/sql process

Apex 4.1
Oracle 11g
I have a page that consists of a main region and several sub regions. I have a pl/sql process in After Header SET_DISPLAY(:P400_DISPLAY :='MAIN';)
Three subregions have a contional display where P400_DISPLAY = STORE. This works in hiding the sub regions.
Now I want to change the P400_DISPLAY value to STORE to show the subregions when I hit a button.
I tried creating a dynamic action for on click of the add button but get the following error:
The selected button uses a 'Button Template' that does not contain the #BUTTON_ID# substitution string
I went to the templates and found:
Substitution Strings
Substitution strings are used within sub templates to reference component values. This report details substitution string usage for this template.
Substitution String
Referenced
From
Description
#LINK#

#JAVASCRIPT#

#BUTTON_ATTRIBUTES#
No
Button Attributes
#BUTTON_ID#
No
Generated button ID will be either the button's Static ID if defined, or if not will be an internally generated ID in the format 'B' || [Internal Button ID]
I then tried creating a page process, pl/sql, :P400_DISPLAY :='STORE'; when the appropriate button is pressed. The button action is submit page. However, it does not change the P400_DISPLAY value and the subregions stay hidden.
Suggestions please on how to fix the template or change the P400_DISPLAY value?

The root issue is that, although you change the value of your page item, it isn't visible to other areas of the page until it is in the session. So, any other action based on the value of your page item; the visibility of a control, a report based on the item's value, etc. will all be unaffected by changing the value of the page item until it has been changed in the session. Even after this the items are stored in the session, you must thereafter do something to cause the value to be reevaluated. To see the effect of this, observe that your page loads and evaluates the value of your page item, it sees that is "MAIN" and hides the regions. However, it doesn't reevaluate them after this.
So; your choices to get this value set in the session are to either Submit the page, or use JavaScript to set the value in the session. If you use the latter of these, you'll have to do some further work to cause the visibility tests to be re-run, So, let's stick with with the submit method.
What you've done above sounds correct for this but, there are a lot of decisions you could have made that might have caused things not to happen in the correct sequence.
Firstly, let's confirm that what I describe above is your problem. From the development environment, load the page, click the button to change the value and submit. Now, click the link labelled Session. Is it still set to MAIN? If so; this is your issue.
Let's start with the your After Header computation. Did you set it to *only* run if the current value of your page item is NULL??? If not, that's your problem.
Load Page -> Item set to 'Main' by Computation -> Click Button -> Item set to STORE -> Submit -> Load Page -> Item set to 'Main' by Computation
See the problem?
Assuming this isn't the issue, you created a Branch to the same page, right? What is your process point for the Branch? Is it *After* Validation, Computation etc? Because if not, you aren't changing the value before the submit happens.
I bet it is the first issue but, take a look at these.
Cheers,
-Joe

Performance issues with dynamic action (PL/SQL)

Hi!
I'm having perfomance issues with a dynamic action that is triggered on a button click.
I have 5 drop down lists to select columns which the users want to filter, 5 drop down lists to select an operation and 5 boxes to input values.
After that, there is a filter button that just submits the page based on the selected filters.
This part works fine, the data is filtered almost instantaneously.
After this, I have 3 column selectors and 3 boxes where users put values they wish to update the filtered rows to,
There is an update button that calls the dynamic action (procedure that is written below).
It should be straight out, the only performance issue could be the decode section, because I need to cover cases when user wants to set a value to null (@) and when he doesn't want update 3 columns, but less (he leaves '').
Hence P99_X_UC1 || ' = decode(' || P99_X_UV1 ||','''','|| P99_X_UC1 ||',''@'',null,'|| P99_X_UV1 ||')
However when I finally click the update button, my browser freezes and nothing happens on the table.
Can anyone help me solve this and improve the speed of the update?
Regards,
Ivan

END;

Hi Ivan,
I do not think that the decode is performance relevant. Maybe the update hangs because some other transaction has uncommitted changes to one of the affected rows or the where clause is not selective enough and needs to update a huge amount of records.
Besides that - and I might be wrong, because I only know some part of your app - the code here looks like you have a huge sql injection vulnerability here. Maybe you should consider re-writing your logic in static sql. If that is not possible, you should make sure that the user input only contains allowed values, e.g. by white-listing P99_X_On (i.e. make sure they only contain known values like '=', '<', ...), and by using dbms_assert.enquote_name/enquote_literal on the other P99_X_nnn parameters.

Date Picker with Dynamic Action

Hi
I have a situation where a DA is fired onchange of a date field using the apex 4 date picker item type.
The DA does a number of calculations and database requests, so it can take a few seconds over our slow internet connection.
While the DA is executing, the calendar remains displayed. The application demands that I display at least 1 or preferably 2 months as well as the current month to facilitate the user entry, which means much of the page is obscured. Not only would it be nice so see the various fields in multiple regions being updated progressively, it would also be reassuring for the user to see that the application has not "hung".
Is this the expected behavior? Is there a technique to close the date picker before the DA actions are triggered?
Thanks for your advice.
CS

Problem with dynamic actions

Hi,
I am creating the following dynamic action configuration for my custom infotype 9902. My requirement is to Insert a new record of Additional payments (0015) infotype with wagetype (LGART) = 9GHS and Amount(BETRG) = 1000 when the value in field "ALL_ENROLL" is created/changed.
INFTY|SUBTY|FIELD |FC|No|S | Variable function
9902 | |ALL_ENROLL |06 |20 |I | INS,0015,,,(P9902-BEGDA),(P9902-ENDDA)
 9902 | |ALL_ENROLL | 06|30 |W| P0015-LGART='9GHS'
 9902 | |ALL_ENROLL |06 |40 |W| Q0015-BETRG='100000'
The dynamic action is getting triggered properly with Wagetype(LGART) being populated properly. But the value in Amount(LGART) is not getting populated. The technical details of the amount field shows the field as Q0015-BETRG.
Can someone help me in acheiving this?
Thanks,
Prasath N

Problem solved. The documentation for dynamic action states that,
Do not set defaults for Q fields of an infotype because the values for these fields are derived from the corresponding P fields.
Examples
Infotype Subtype ..... FC Ind. Variable function part
0021 2 04 I INS,0015,M430
0021 2 04 W P0015-BETRG='10000'
When a Family/Related Person record (0021) record with subtype 2 (child) is created, an Additional Payments record (0015) with a default amount of 100.00 is created.

Issue with Dynamic Actions - Infotype 0041 Updation

Hi All,
Requirement :
I have to update the Date type-13 ( Resignation Date - DAR11 ) without Date ( DAT11 as Blank value - User will fill through Infogroup ) while performing the Termination action through PA40.
Added below code in V_T588z (0000):
I have added 186,188 Lines.Other lines are standard thing.
              04     180     P     PSPAR-MASSN='10'/X **Termination
              04     181     P     PSPAR-MASSN='ZB'/X **Termination
              04     182     P     PSPAR-MASSN='14'/X **Termination
              04     185     I     COP,41,,,(PSPAR-BEGDA),(PSPAR-ENDDA)/D
              04     186     W     P0041-DAR11='13' **BEGIN & END OF CRA01670 CODE ***
              04     188     W     P0041-DAR11='' **BEGIN & END OF CRA01670 CODE ***
Issue :
1. The above logic is not working for Finland ,other countries. For only India it is working.
2. Some times Date type-13 is coming twice while through the Infogroup-0041 screen twice,which is incorrect. The infotype-0041 should call only once.I have checked the User parameters,MOLGA,USR. But it is not working.
2. The standard configuration Date type -09-Last day of work - is working fine . But i could not be able to find ,from where it is coming.I have checked the Dynamic actions,but no use.
Need your inputs to solve the issue.

So here the column names are dynamic.And each fixed row group has different calculations. I have a date parameter. If I select July 2013, then I need to show data from July 2012 to July 2013 with Columns(Jul-12, Aug-12...Jul-13). How to achive below layout
with dynamic columns?

Hi Sarayu_CM,
According to your description, you want to filter the records of prior year based on only one parameter selection. Right?
In this scenario, we can create two parameters. The first one is for user to select. The second parameter is based on the first parameter selection. We don't need to specify Available Values for the second parameter, but we should use expression to specify
Default Values based on the first parameter selection. Use the expression below:
=DateAdd("m",-12,FormatDateTime(Parameters!param1.Value))
Then we just need to apply a filter on the matrix/dataset to get the records which the date is between values in these two parameters.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best Regards,

Help with Dynamic Action Construction

I want to create a dynamic action that will disable a field called P1_TBRN when any of the following conditions in the form are true:
:P1_TRIAL_STATUS in ('Off-Trial','Unknown') or
:P1_DIAGNOSIS_MAJOR ='UNKNOWN' or
:P1_INSTITUTION ='Unknown' or
:P1_CONSENT_EXISTS <> 'Y';
I assume I use a "Change" event but I can't work out how to enter the 4 condtions so that they are all checked each time. If I create 4 separate dynamic actions, when I change one of the fields, it does not take into consideration the other field values.
An alternative I've tried is to set up a Read Only condition on P1_TRIAL with the above condition. The only problem is that I have to submit the page each time there is a change in one of the 4 fields above. It would be better if I didn't have to submit the page each time so I'd like to use a Dynamic Action.
thanks in advance

Hi Paul.
If you want to evaluate 4 variables in 1 dynamic action you have to post the value of these 4 items on each change of one of these items as far as I know.
I had a form with multiple checks of this kind and ended up having serieus performance issues.
My way around was to evaluate in javascript. You creat a dynamic action on change of any of these 4 fields and set the condition to a javascript expression. The expression looks something like (quick edit so there might be some typos):
$v('P1_TRIAL_STATUS')=='Off-Trial'||
$v('P1_TRIAL_STATUS')=='Unknown')||
$v('P1_DIAGNOSIS_MAJOR')=='UNKNOWN'||
$v('P1_INSTITUTION') =='Unknown'||
$v('P1_CONSENT_EXISTS') == 'Y'
If this evaluates to true the true action of the dynamic action is executed, otherwise the false action.

Report Formatting with Dynamic Height Header/Footer

I need to generate a printable report (pdf if possible) with a:
1) Header - Dynamic Height based on recordset output
2) Body - Recordset output, may carry over to multiple pages
3) Footer - Dynamic Height based on recordset out
In short, the whole page is dynamic- The header and footer need to be on every page and whatever height is left over to fit within the print area goes to the body and the line item output of each record (think invoice). Then the number of pages will depend on how long it takes to output the body recordset (but the header and footer MUST be on each page).
I have been trying to get this to work using cfdocument since CF7 and have never had any luck. It has not worked due to the reason that since the header and footer are dynamic height, I do not have any way to set the margins properly on page generation (so it shrinks the header or leaves excess whitespace).
Anyone recommend the best way to go about this? I have heard about the report builder and am not sure if that will fit these requirements. I appreciate any assistance!

When the footer goes to the 2nd page the page subform is incremented so you will have to reference the page subform as well. I suggest that you add a button (this is for a test only) to the footer subform and add the code app.alert(this.somExpression). Now render the form and make sure the footer stays on one page. Hit the button and take note of the someExpression. Now add enough rows to force the footer to a new page. Hit th ebutton again and take note of the changed somExpression. So to solve your problem you will have to find out which page your footer is on. and then construct your expression to incorporate this chane in expression. Note that the indexes are 0 based but the page numbering is 1 based.
Hope that helps

Apex 4.2 dynamic action to refresh a report region on a different page

Hi,
I open up a pop up window from a report region. When the user is done in the pop-up window and closes it, can I trigger a refresh on the report region using dynamic actions without actually reloading the whole page? I know I can use dynamic action on a page to refresh the report region on the same page.
Thanks,
Sinan

Sinan,
So long as the region to be refreshed is still loaded, you can do this. I don't know how you are loading your pop-up or unloading it but, the principle should be the same as what I provide below.
Assume that you have set the static ID for your report to MY_REPORT. (Be sure you have checked "Allow Partial Page Refresh" in the Report Attributes).
$('#confirmBox').find('div#userConfirmationMessage').html( 'Would you to Refresh your Report?' );
$('#confirmBox').dialog(
 autoOpen: true,
 modal: true,
 title: 'Refresh Conformation',
 buttons:
 'No': function ()
 $(this).dialog('close');
 'Yes': function ()
 $(this).dialog('close');
 $('#MY_REPORT').trigger('apexrefresh');
