Reg Missing Field Validation Message

Hello All,
I am trying to use field validation for making a field required when a specific value from a pick list is chosen, i am using this with a custom object.
i have written the Field Validation:
IIf(([<plStatus_of_Search_ITAG>] = 'Completed' AND [<stTechnology_ITAG>] IS NULL),N,[<stTechnology_ITAG>])
and typed some error message and saved the field, signed off and signed in
after that the validation is not getting triggered and when i checked the fiels validation textbox, i found the "Field Validation" condition and "Field Validation Error Message" missing. why is this happening?
as i have saved them.. what might be the problem.
regards,
Uday

Hi Arvindh,
The issue was solved after i cleared cookies and offline client, i was a browser issue.
Thanks.

Missing Field error when modifying user Master Record

We are using our corporate LDAP to authenticate our portal users and do not have (nor do we want) write permission to the LDAP. We are using additional attributes (ume.admin.addattrs) to hold information pertinent to the portal. We are running into a problem though when required information is missing from the LDAP user master record. For example, if the users email address is missing, when we attempt to save a user's record with the additional attributes we need, the system responds with a "Missing Field" error message and will not save the additional attribute until the LDAP record is complete. Currently the only work around to this problem is to notify the LDAP administrators and have them update the record (not a high priority for them).
Is there a way to have the portal ignore incomplete records and just save what it has?
Thanks

Mandatory field validation error occurs when user cancels out of blank "cre

Hi - I'm building an application using Oracle 10g 9.0.5.2, with ADF/UIX/Struts.
I followed the technique described in the tutorial
http://otn.oracle.com/obe/obe9051jdev/uixtutorial/lesson_uix.htm
In that example they have a page called BrowseDeptEmp. On this page is a
create button, which is linked to a /createEmpAction before displaying the
FormEmp uix page, where the user is supposed to enter new employee data.
So I did the same thing, but I added a cancel button on the FormEmp.uix page.
If the user presses cancel on the FormEmp page, it goes through a 'rollback' DataAction (with a rollback operation dragged on it) and then back
to the main page.
here's my problem:
If the user
1. clicks the create button on the BrowseDeptEmp page
2. Sees the blank form in the FormEmp page
3. Changes his mind (does not want to add a new employee) and clicks cancel
The FormEmp page displays validation errors on the fields that are mandatory in the DB! So the user
can't cancel out of the create page unless he fills in the mandatory fields...!!
How do I cancel out of a create page 1) without entering any data on the page and 2) without getting
mandatory field validation messages?
It must be simple but i can't figure it out....
Please help :)
Thanks
Des

I don't understand how this can happen if the user has not entered any data.
Is there a commit action somewhere that is being triggered before the rollback?
is your cancel button a submit button?
one way to fix this is to convert the submit button into a
regular button and have the regular button go directly to your DataAction (the one with the rollback).
you can automatically create this button by drawing a pageLink from the page to the DataAction in the page flow diagram.

Want to change length validator message and change field format.

I want to override Length Validator Message as I want to tell the user that phone number
must contain 10 numbers
I've added this validator on the phone field
af:validateLength minimum="10" maximum="10"
                               hintMinimum="11" hintMaximum="22"
                               hintNotInRange="33" messageDetailMinimum="44"
                               messageDetailMaximum="55"
                               messageDetailNotInRange="66" id="lengthval"/>and this when I enter less than 10 numbers the error message tell that you must enter 10 characters
I want to override this message to be "you must enter 10 numbers"
And I want to make this number format like
XXXX,XXX,XX
How can I make this.

Strictly speaking a number in this format is no number. It's a phone number and you should use a regular expression validator for this.
Check http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E15051_01/apirefs.1111/e12419/tagdoc/af_validateRegExp.html for more info.

Field Validation on Read Only Field

I'm trying to create a pop up error box if a field contains null values. The problem is that the field I'm trying to do the validation on is a read-only field. It's the Account field on the Contact Object or Module. It won't allow me to include validation. The goal here is to have a POP UP ERROR box come up if someone does not select a value for that field. Making it required doesn't generate a popup box, it only has a small "required" text next to the field which can be easily missed by a user. Any ideas?

Hi !
I found the way to do what you wan't, but it sounds a bit strange for me...
You have to put a field validation on the Account Id field. I made some tests to know what is in the AccountId field when it's blank and i see that the value is "No Match Row Id" !!
So your validation rule must be simply
*<> "No Match Row Id"*
It worked for me, the error message appears... But I think this is something we have to report to Oracle...
Hope this will help, feel free to ask more !

Trying to create a Field Validation Expression and need help

I have a picklist field and another field that are in question. I want to set some sort of rule that forces the second field to be populated only If specific values are selected from the picklist field.
I was going the route of a field validation Rule, but everything i've tried so far does not produce the results i am trying to achieve.
The first type of expression i tried was:
([<plProduction_Print_Account_Category_ITAG>] <> LookupValue("OCC_CUST_LOV_ACCOUNT_1", "No Production Print") AND ([<stSIC_Code_ITAG>] IS NULL))
This is generating the field validation error message when i select any of the correct values from the picklist. the problem is still the second field, which will generate the error if a value is entered into the second field, regardless of the picklist value selected. Switching the "IS NULL" to "IS NOT NULL" only reverses the problem on the second field, causing the error to generate when the second field is updated to a NULL or blank value.
I also tried :
= 'No Production Print' AND [<stSIC_Code_ITAG>] IS NOT NULL
and got similar results.
([<plProduction_Print_Account_Category_ITAG>] = LookupValue("OCC_CUST_LOV_ACCOUNT_1", "No Production Print"))
Similar results as well.
Does this need to be an IIF statement? Do I need to make this a workflow expression instead? i could really use some help as I have tried everything i can think of and admit, i'm not the expression guru!!!. Any assistance would be appreciated.
TeknoMan

Yes we have the same request and we used the following expression. Example we have a field "Método de pago" ( [<plMtodo_de_pago_ITAG<]), it's values are "CHEQUE and DEPOSITO" if we select DEPOSITO three more fields were requiered Route, Sucursal de banco and Clabe so we have to put this validation in the four fields including Metodo de pago.
[<plMtodo_de_pago_ITAG>] <> "DEPOSITO" OR ([<Route>] IS NOT NULL AND [<nSucursal_de_banco_ITAG>] IS NOT NULL AND [<stCLABE_ITAG>] IS NOT NULL)
well in the field CLABE we put the following [<plMtodo_de_pago_ITAG>] <> "DEPOSITO" OR ([<Route>] IS NOT NULL AND [<nSucursal_de_banco_ITAG>] IS NOT NULL AND [<stCLABE_ITAG>] IS NOT NULL AND Len([<stCLABE_ITAG>])=18) this was because the len of the value must be 18 characters.
I hope this works for you

Date Field validation in APEX 4.0

Hi,
I am using APEX 4.0 for developing my application. I have an SEARCH region in which I have an DATE item with format MM/DD/YYYY. When I enter the date with any junk characters like 'XXXXXXX' then it throws me an validation as "Invalid Date Format" message both in Notification and Inline (Below date Item). This is an APEX 4.0 inbuilt validation for date field and its not the validation created by me in that page explicitly.
My Issue is that I do not want to Display the validation message inline to the field and I need the message only in Notification. What setting I need to do in Date Item to remove the inline validation message form that field.
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
In your validation process, under the error message section
(i.e) in the error message display location: set inline in notification give this,
so that the notification will be fired only in message, not inline to the field.

Mini

Hello Shafiq,
Thanks for your comment. I think it's a good idea to deactivate option to send IDocs immediately and create an own job to trigger it regularly. It would be great if according user exits would be triggered also only when the IDoc job starts. Otherwise I would have to create a copy of RSNASTED and enhance it to fill according values. Depending on the outcome I'll reward your anwser. Nevertheless thank you very much until then.

Field validation - make field required based on value of another field

Hi,
I tried to enter the field validation into both LeadSource and stSource_Detail field, however, when the LeadSource is not "Customer" or "Staff" and Source Detail is not empty, the validation message will prompt. Below is my field validation:
IIf(([<LeadSource>]=LookupValue("OCCAM_LEAD_SOURCE", "Customer") OR [<LeadSource>]=LookupValue("OCCAM_LEAD_SOURCE", "Staff")) AND [<stSource_Detail_Staff_ID__Customer_ID_ITAG>] IS NULL,N,[<stSource_Detail_Staff_ID__Customer_ID_ITAG>])

Field Validation statements must return only TRUE or FALSE. Rewrite your statement such that if your condition is valid, true is returned, and if not, false is returned.

ADAPTER.JAVA_EXCEPTION - java.lang.Exception: no valid message format obje

Hi experts,
we have a problem when we call a web service PI (release 7.01 , SP 10), from legacy system : the PI system return this message : ADAPTER.JAVA_EXCEPTION ; - java.lang.Exception: no valid message format object found
For to test this scenario we use soapUI tool.
I tried the URL (... /XISOAPAdapter/HelperServlet?action=FindChannel ...) in IE and got the following response :
<?xml version="1.0"; ?>
- <s:ChannelInfo xmlns:s="http://sap.com/xi/WebService/xi30">
<channelID>11ccbb96a7f3349c895a005c9bc09cb7</channelID>

<type xmlns:st="http://sap.com/xi/XI/System">st:SOAP</type>
<direction>INBOUND</direction>
<party />
<service>BS_..........IDB_DEV</service>
</s:ChannelInfo>
so I think that this service is OK .
Thanks in advance for your help,

Hi,
1) Check the URL once again- check for the extra spaces at the end of the link.
2) please refer below blog i hope it will help you
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/40611dd6-e66e-2910-f383-e80fb44f9cd4?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
Did you check the page no 14 of the document which has the same problem - in problem analysis it has mentioned that check the URL as well as proxy setting of internet browser.
3) Try to create the ID objects manually (Sender Channel and Sender Agreement).....when we use the wizard a * gets introduced in the unfilled (unused) fields (party etc) ....however when manually created the unused fields are left blank.
4) Check if all the ID objects are available in SXI_CACHE.

Mail: photos won't display, only "missing plug-in" message

My wife's old G4 PowerMac running OS X10.5.8 recently stopped displaying photos in Mail. Instead, all that displays is message "Missing Plug-in" and the photo number or caption. This happens with all incoming e-mails, as well as outgoing e-mails generated from iPhoto, or just standard e-mails composed in Mail with an attached photo. The photo is there when she clicks on "Quick Look" but not in the field of the message. HTML images in ads display fine...only individual photo attachments are missing. Please help. Thanks.

Hi Neville.
I have the same problem with the "missing plug-in" message...but everytime I close out and try a second time the photos appear.
Is the path "applications" "utilities" "java"...if so I don't see "Java" in utilities, even though I was prompted to do a recent "java update" and did so?
Wondering where my "Java Preferences" file would be since I don't any file for "Java" in "utilities".
Any help/advice would be much appreciated!

How to set a dynamic validation message in javascript

Hi,
I am using the "validate" event on a field, along with the "script message" field, to make a validation and send a message to the user if the test fails.
- Is it possible to define parameters in this message, for example "field &1 is invalid" where we replace &1 by the name of a field?
- Is it possible to send 2 different messages (I guess it's like using a message &1)?
- What is the best practice according to your experience?
Notes:
- I am aware of the xfa.host.messageBox, but I'd like to keep Adobe logic for validations (am I wrong? why?)
- I also saw the possibility of binding a field from the context, to the message field, but I found that it was not very clean to do this way (if even possible)
Thx !

According to the tests I did since yesterday, it is very difficult to use the "validation script message" (in the "value" tab of a "text input" field, within a dynamic table), for sending a dynamic message.
I abandon, and prefer to use use
xfa.host.messageBox( "dynamic message text" )
For information, I could change the message during "validate" event, with a rather complex algorithm.
Unfortunately, when a table row is just added (dynamically, with a button), though the message has been changed, it displays the original value. When I change the field again, the changed validation message is taken into account. I don't know why.

Bypass Required Field Validation when needed in PDF Dynamic Form

I faced a tricky situation, where some fields are required, but we need to allow bypass required (mandatory) validation rule when saving the form, and require to fill such fields when submitting the form. In other words, provide flexible control when to turn On / Off this feature.
I wanted to implement a flexible solution, and I will post my findings here. Appreciate your feedback for improvements.
Steps:
1. Mark rquired fields as required.
2. Specify "Empty Message" as "This field cannot be left blank", or similar.
3. Specify "Validation Script Message" as "This field must have a proper value before submit", or similar.
4. Create a Global Form Level Variable something like "StopTotalValidation" and default as "1" means by default, Turn Off Validation for some cases.
5. For the fields which require this type of control, add the script (to be defined later) on the "validate" event:
myTools.validateForRequiredField(this);
6. Create a Script Object "myTools" and add the following script:
function initStringFunc() {
//call this function on Document Initialize
String.prototype.trim = function() {
    return this.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g,"");
String.prototype.ltrim = function() {
    return this.replace(/^\s+/,"");
String.prototype.rtrim = function() {
    return this.replace(/\s+$/,"");
String.prototype.isEmpty = function() {
    return (this == null) || this.trim() == "";
function setNodeProperty(theNode, theProperty, newValue) {
   if (theNode[theProperty] != newValue) {
        theNode[theProperty] = newValue;
function isNodePropertyEmpty(theNode, theProperty) {
    var result;
    if (theNode == null || theNode[theProperty] == null) {
        result = true;
    } else {
        result = theNode[theProperty].isEmpty();
    return result;
function disableTotalValidation() {
    StopTotalValidation.value = "1";
function enableTotalValidation() {
    StopTotalValidation.value = "0";
function isTotalValidationOn() {
    return StopTotalValidation.value != "1";
function isTotalValidationOff() {
    return StopTotalValidation.value == "1";
const conRequired = "(required)";
function validateForRequiredField(theFld) {
    // Bypass Required Field Validation when Global Validation is Off.
    var result=false;
    if (theFld) {
        if (theFld.mandatory && theFld.mandatory == "error") {
            if (myTools.isNodePropertyEmpty(theFld, "rawValue")) {
                myTools.setNodeProperty(theFld, "rawValue", conRequired);
            if (isTotalValidationOn()) {
                if (isNodePropertyEmpty(theFld, "rawValue") || theFld.rawValue.toLowerCase() == conRequired.toLowerCase()) {
                    result = false;
                } else {
                    result = true;
            } else {
                result = true;
    } else {
        result = false;
    return result;
7. Now, on the click of "Save" button call the function "disableTotalValidation()" and on the click of "Submit" button call the function "enableTotalValidation()".
I have just finished implementing the above solution, and as per my initial testing, it is working fine.
I will post this to my Google Docs workspace, and provide updates their.
Tarek.

Hi Tarek,
I see what you mean in relation to clarity if you used the form variable approach. It was only a suggestion. Like so many things in LC, there is more than one way to finding a solution to a problem.
The triple equal sign (===) is testing if the condition is equal, but to a higher standard. It is testing if the values are identical to each other. For example if you were testing if a textfield was empty, with Equality (==) you might have this:
if (this.rawValue == null || this.rawValue == "") {
     // Some script
If you use Identity (===) you can do the same thing with less script:
if (this.rawValue === null) {
     // Some script
It is also useful when testing the value of an object, but also the type (eg string, number, Boolean).
Lastly, it can be used for non-identity (!==).
In relation to createNode() etc, apart from John's blog, it is covered in the LC documents: http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/livecycle/documentation.html. Look for the scripting guides and the guide to the XML Form Object Model.
Good luck,
Niall
