Search Help on Table Control - Fill more than one field in the table?

Hey everyone,
I have built a screen with a Table Control on it... the fields of the table control are linked to an internal table... The internal table has the line type of a structure I've defined in the data dictionary. Within that structure in the data dictionary, I've linked some fields to search helps (For example, a MATNR and CUSTOMER search help)... I've defined in the structure definition which fields from the search help are to be returned to which fields in the structure.
The problem is, even though I have the search help set to export both the customer number and location when using the search help on the customer field, it still does not fill the location field within the table. Is this a limitation of using search helps within table controls?
I'm also finding that by defining the search help through the structure, instead of directly within the screen, the search help round button does not show up on the field, yet I can still press F4 to bring up the search help. Is there a reason why it's not showing the search help clickable button even though it works fine using F4?
For doing search helps in Table Controls, is it better to just build the search help, attach it directly to the field in the table, and then after the user picks the single field, use the PAI to run a select and fill the rest of the fields required?
Thanks,
Dallas

Hi Dallas,
(1)
What i understood is that you added a search help by defining it in the internal table type for a field customer number..in the search help you have 2 fields customer number and location...user press the search help ..then you need to fill 2 different fields or 1 field?
if you need to fill the customer location or location (only one) then you need to set the "import" in the search help for whichever is required.....
if you need to fill 2 or more different fields..then you can use the technique you have mentioned last , to do a select in PAI and fill the fields....but this you can use if the combination for the fields is unique...eg: u have customer number and location..if customer X can be mapped to location X and location Y..when a select statement is done there are 2 options..so in such cases it is better to leave the option to the user otherwise if there is a clear mapping like customer X can be mapped only to location X then you can use the select..
(2)
usually when you define it as a type in the internal table the icon doesn't show up..but you can do alternative like mentioned..go to the table,find the search help for the required field if present or create a new one if required and place the search help mentioned in the screen itself..so as to see the icon...sometimes users are adamant that they need the search help icon to be seen..so it depends on if your user
(3)
as in the example of customer number and location mentioned we can provide them different search helps and do the needful processing in PAI to fill the fields
Table controls may be used for different purposes and requirements....even a checkbox,push button can be placed as a field in table control and used,but yes most of the time requirements are like what is mentioned in your case...

How to bring the more than one rows from the table into the script

Hi
I have to bring more than one rows from the table into the Main windows of the script. so plz help me out.
Thanks in Advance
Ananya

Hi Ananya,
   Bring more than one row into main window of script.
   For this you need to do some changes for data which you pass to main window.At a time you need to pass more than one row,so for this you need to define one structure.See below code.
Types:begin of ty_rows,
     include structure (your row_structure),
     include structure (your row_sturcture),
Types:end of ty_rows.
for example....
If i need to pass 2 vendor details at a time to main window then the structure should be like this.
Types:begin of ty_rows,
       vendor1 like lfa1-lifnr,
       vendor1_name like lfa1-name1,
       vendor2 like lfa1-lifnr,
       vendor2_name like lfa1-name1,
      end of ty_rows.
Data:i_main type standard table of ty_rows,
     wa_main type ty_rows.
Based on condition you can pass more than one rows of your actual internal table data to i_main internal table.
Then you can pass i_main internal table to your main window.
    I think this will help you.

How to apply data into 2 tables AND to more than one record in same table?

Hello,
I am trying to apply/insert data into 2 tables AND at the same time apply data to more than one record (in the same table). How would I do this in APEX?
I have updated using one table with no problem, however, when I try updating with the two tables/ multiple record sets, I get errors.
I appreciate the help.
Thanks.

You can achieve what you want using PL/SQL. Can you post ur code?

More than one signal to the table

hi,
can i input more than one signal that come from" wave chart " into build table block in the same time

The Table control accepts a 2D array as an input. If you use a Waveform Graph (not chart), it is pretty easy. You can just build the two arrays into a 2D array (using Build Array) and pass it to the display. However, since a chart updates with each iteration, you cannot easily build it into a 2D array. If your graph is inside a loop, you could pass the data outside of the loop while building an array through auto-indexing.

More than one field contain the data field attribute

What If more than one filed contain data filed, do I need to run the rule file more than one times

This has been discussed mant times in the list.You can search for a more complete answer, but basically, you don't define a column as data but rather with the measure/account/whatever it represents.
for exampel suppose you ahve the numbers 10,10,10 in your file. Instead of seting the member to data, you could set the firt column to Jan, the second to Feb and the third to Mar

Lines of a table control are more than one table control problem.

Hi All,
   I'm writing a screen which includes a table control and below is my code:
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
LOOP AT gt_blds.
    CHAIN.
      FIELD gw_bld-ebeln.
      FIELD gw_bld-ebelp.
      FIELD gw_bld-quanty.
      MODULE get_item ON CHAIN-INPUT.
    ENDCHAIN.
endloop.
The get_item was used to summary the total quanty of each PO item.
The problem is that once the lines of gt_blds is 16 and my table control lines is 14, the get_item module will only calculate from line 1 to line14, the last 2 lines was lost...
Can anyone help me?

Hi,
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
LOOP AT gt_blds.
    CHAIN.
      FIELD gw_bld-ebeln.
      FIELD gw_bld-ebelp.
      FIELD gw_bld-quanty.
      MODULE get_item ON CHAIN-INPUT.
    ENDCHAIN.
**add one more module.
module modify_tabcontrol
endloop.
in program.
module modify_tabcontrol.
describe table itab lines tc-lines.
if tc-current_line > tc-lines.
append itab.
else.
modify itab index tc-current_line.
endmodule.
even you cannot acheive this.
add one more module after the loop statement
module count_qty.
in program
module count_qty.
*here you sum up or whatever you want

Pull more than one field into the same field in a report.

I am attempting to put together a report in Visual Studio 2008. It seemed a simple report at first, but as I am creating the SQL, I am having a little trouble conceptualizing how to get it to work exactly as needed. Here is the issue...
In this case, the report should show two rows for each department. One is the count of who within an audience (that will be set up as a parameter) completed a certain course (the course may also be a parameter). The next row should be
a count, within that same department, of all users within the audience. Both counts should be within the same field on the report, but on different rows.
My thought was to create two CTE's. One would contain the counts, by department, of everybody in the audience. The other would contain the counts, by department, of those within the audience who completed the given course.
The problem is, though, I need to then have these two counts by department on two separate lines, and they should be within the same field. Basically, the idea is they are the numerator and denominator. There would also be a field before the count that would
need to identify which one it is. For the sake of the example, call it "Measure_ID" and it would say "CourseCert" for the count of who completed the course and "CourseAvail" for the count of those who are part of the audience.
Let me know if that makes sense, or if I can provide any further clarification to help you better understand what I am trying to achieve. Does anybody have thoughts on how to do this?

Unfortunately, the counts need to be in separate rows. If they could be in the same row, it would have probably been a lot easier. I think I could have just done a couple "Case When" type formulas within the list of things under "Select."
As it is, I need the two counts to show up under the same heading in separate rows. Unfortunately, the table structure of this database is very complicated. I think it would likely just further confuse things if I tried to share all of that detail here.
That is why I was trying to be generic.
Unless there is another easier way I am missing, I was thinking the easiest way to achieve what I needed was to use two CTE's. One would list all users by department who belong to a specific audience (the audiences are what we use to then assign them
to certain courses, so the audience would be the people who are required to complete a certain course). The other would list all user by department who are in that audience and have completed a particular course. I think I am fine to complete that part.
It is just getting them to then display as in my example that I am not sure how to do.
The desired result, as you see in my example, has two lines per department, the first being a count of those who completed the course ("Certified"). The second line being a count of those who are required to complete it ("Available").
Does that help? I was basically hoping somebody had an example they could use, just with fake table names so I could adapt it to my data. If it helps, though, let's pretend the two CTE's are like this:
Table Name: Certified
Table's purpose: This table would list all people who had completed the course.
Fields:
CourseName
CourseCode
AudienceName
AudienceCode
CompletionResult
EmpCode
DepartmentCode
Table Name: Available
Table's purpose: This table would list all people who are assigned to the audience.
Fields:
AudienceName
AudienceCode
EmpCode
DepartmentCode
The desired result would then count the EmpCodes, by department, from each table in that Measure_Amount field so it could display as I showed above. Does that make sense? I apologize if that does not help to clarify. I was trying to be as simple
as possible so you could just use it as a generic example.

Pulling more than one field into the same field within a report.

I posted this in the T-SQL forum, but it was suggested it may be better to post it here. This is somewhat complicated, so I hope I am explaining this well. I will post here what I posted there. I will also include two replies I gave in offering further information
in case that may help to further clarify my question. See below:

Dynamic LOV's - can we display more than one field in the Select list.

I have the following query.
SELECT DISTINCT NAME d, legal_entity_id r
FROM xle_entity_profiles
ORDER BY NAME
So the drop down would contain the Organizational Name - say in the case   China mobilex
The legal entity id is - 100
Issue, there's also a legal entity id of 110 that is mapped to the same Organizational name - China mobilex
so in the select list display it would look like
                               China mobile
                               China mobile
QUESTION - is there a way to display BOTH
                               China mobile 100
                               China mobile 110

Hi Mikez,
Perhaps the super LOV plugin of Skillbuilders would suit your needs more. It lets you create a modal dialog LOV with multiple columns, so you can display your selectable entries like:
"Organizational Name" | "Country" | "Address" | "Phone Number"
From a users point of view that would make more sense than an id column.

Fetching more than one row from a table after selecting one value from the dropdown

Hi Experts,
How can we fetch more than one row from a table after selecting one value from the dropdown.
The scenario is that I have some entries in the dropdown like below
A               B               C
11256          VID          911256
11256          VID          811256
11256          SONY      11256
The 'B' values are there in the dropdown. I have removed the duplicate entries from the dropdown so now the dropdownlist has only two values.for eg- 'VID' and'SONY'. So now, after selecting 'VID' from the dropdown I should get all the 'C' values. After this the "C' values are to be passed to other methods to fetch some data from other tables.
Request your help on this.
Thanks,
Preeetam Narkhede.

Hi Preetam!
I hope I understand your request proberly, since this is more about Java and less about WebDynpro, but if I'm wrong, just follow up on this.
Supposed you have some collection of your original table data stored in variable "origin". Populate a Hashtable using the values from column "B" (let's assume it's Strings) as keys and an ArrayList of whatever "C" is (let's assume String instances, too) as value (there's a lot of ways to iterate over whatever your datasource is, and since we do not know what your datasource is, maybe you'll have to follow another approach to get b and c vaues,but the principle should remain the same):
// Declare a private variable for your Data at the appropriate place in your code
private Hashtable temp = new Hashtable<String, ArrayList<String>>();
// Then, in the method you use to retrieve backend data and populate the dropdown,
// populate the Hashtable, too
Iterator<TableData> a = origin.iterator();
while (a.hasNext()) {
     TableData current = a.next();
     String b = current.getB();
     String c = current.getC();
     ArrayList<String> values = this.temp.get(b);
     if (values == null) {
          values = new ArrayList<String>();
     values.add(c);
     this.temp.put(b, values);
So after this, you'll have a Hashtable with the B values als keys and collections of C values of this particular B as value:
VID --> (911256, 811256)
SONY --> (11256)
Use
temp.keySet()
to populate your dropdown.
After the user selects an entry from the dropdown (let's say stored in variable selectedB), you will be able to retrieve the collection of c's from your Hashtable
// In the metod you handle the selection event with, get the c value collection
//and use it to select from your other table
ArrayList<String> selectedCs = this.temp.get(selectedB);
// now iterate over the selectedCs items and use each of these
//to continue retrieving whatever data you need...
for (String oneC : selectedCs) {
     // Select Data from backend using oneC in the where-Clause or whatever...
Hope that helps

NetBeans VWP: help w/ AJAX, is it possible to refresh more than one field?

I have a form with lots of fields. Some of them the value is retrieved from the database, for example the service field, where the user types the service id and at the onChange event the form is submitted, executing the processValueChange handler. In this handler the service data is retrieved from the database and a static text with the service name and a static text with the service price are updated.
I'm trying to do this with AJAX, so at the onChange event of the service id text field I have the following:
document.getElementById('form1:stServiceName').refresh('form1:tfServiceId');
document.getElementById('form1:stServicePrice').refresh('form1:tfServiceId');It works, but the processValueChange handler is executed 2 times, and that's a problem...
Isn't there any way to refresh more than one field? With something like this for example:
document.getElementById('form1:tfServiceId').submit();
document.getElementById('form1:stServiceName').refresh();
document.getElementById('form1:stServicePrice').refresh();Thanks for any help,
Felipe

You may want to try creating your own custom popup lov

you can then create your own lov report listing all people and then when you click the name required you can passback as many values as required to the calling form.

How to configure EM Grid Control for more than one databases?

Hi,
I'm configuring EM on Oracle 10gRel1 on Linux. I have more than one databases in the server, and I want use IE at my PC to monitor the databases on Linux server. I can configure and access the Grid Control Console by emca for first database, but cannot configure for the second one, unless I remove the first one configurration. How can I configure EM for more than one databases?
Thanks.

Thank you everybody.
Yes, I'm talking about DBConsole rather than Grid Control (sorry for misuse the term). I managed to set up DB Console for every DB in the same Linux box (10Rel1). What I did is:
1) stop db console and agent with emctl
2) remove repository with RepManager
3) config with emca
Then I can monitor individual databases from my PC (but have to login with different port).
I'm thinking mybe I should use Grid Control instead.
