Set Cascading LOV Item using Dynamic Action
Hi all,
I have the following page item:
P1_USERNAME
P1_COMPANY (LOV)
P1_DIVISION (LOV)
P1_DEPT (LOV)
Item P1_COMPANY, P1_DIVISION, and P1_DEPT are cascading LOV on my page.
I also have a table that contains the user and his/her company, division, and department.
So I have a dynamic action that when P1_USERNAME is entered. The dynamic action will pull the COMPANY, DIVISION, and DEPT information from the table and populate the page item accordingly.
I got the dynamic action working, I can confirm this by checking the Session State of the items.
BUT I cannot get the LOVs to display the selected value from the session state. They always reset back to "- Please Select -", which is my display value when NULL.
For example:
I have a record like in the table:
Username :alex
Company : Finance Inc.
Division : Admin
Dept : HR
When I entered the username into P1_USERNAME, this is what I see in the screen.
Username :alex
Company : - Please Select -
Division : - Please Select -
Dept : - Please Select -
While the session states of the items have been set correctly as per the record in the database.
Has anyone experienced this before?
I think it's because the parent LOV (company), reset the child LOVs (division and dept), when the dynamic action kicks in.
Thanks.
I've just taken a look at your sample page and don't think this issue is actually too complicated to solve. (Actually, it was I who was mucking around in page 1, sorry for that. I was looking at it and then had to go. Picked it up again later on and just made a copy this time)
You change the employee. The dynamic action fires, executes plsql and sets the values in the company2/division2/dept2 fields
Company 1 is a cascading lov. Empo has changed? Company refreshes. Cascading for division and dept as well.
You can see this happening in sequence as well when looking at the page. Select emp, it'll hang for a second. You then get the select list refresh icons.
The sequence in which this happens is of course a bit wrong. You set the values for the items on the client side first, but then their refresh is kicked in, and so the value setting is simply lost again.
What makes this annoying is how P1_EMPNO is a cascading lov parent of P1_COMPANY. Changing P1_EMPNO will refresh the lovs beneath it. However, you can't simply set their values after you've retrieved the user's company/division/dept, because each lov is dependent on the one above it. Eg you change the employee. The company lov is refreshed. Because the it is refreshed, the division lov will refresh. Now you can set the value of the company lov, but not that of the division one. Why is this? The lov for division requires the value of company in the session state. If you'd set the value for company after it has finished refreshing, it will already be too late for division to pick up the value set. .
I made a copy of your page to page 5, “tom”.
The first I did was removing the cascade from the company lov. You don’t need this. There are simply no parent lovs for this lov, as is evident from the sql for it. The companies always remain the same companies even when you select another person; it is not dependent on another item for its values.
Then the timing issues come in play, and with them there is also the issue of the session state.
So now companies always show. You pick a user, it runs the PLSQL block and put values in the P5_xxx2 items. P5_COMPANY can be set now, and this is in the set value of the dynamic action. By not suppressing the change event, a refresh will be triggered on its cascading lov, P5_DIVISION.
Refreshing P5_DIVISION will only get the new lov values (constrained within the chosen company) for this item though, and not set the value. We already have the values in P5_DIVISION2 however, and thus can use the “After Refresh” dynamic action on P5_DIVISION to do this. In short: company gets set, divisions refresh to show the correct divisions, and then the selected value is set. Again, by not suppressing the change event on this item the depending lov on DEPT will be refreshed.
Then by using another “After Refresh” dynamic action on P5_DEPT we can set the selected value once more.
Also important is that I changed P5_DIVISION to submit P5_COMPANY when it is refreshed, and P5_DIVISION when P5_DEPT is refreshed. This makes sure that the correct set of values is retrieved and probably why you were struggling aswell. After company has changed and division has refreshed, the value on division is set. But the correct divisions are shown only because the chosen company has been set in the session state.
The same for division - dept. After the refresh of division, the chosen value for division is set. This change will trigger the refresh on dept, and because dept has the division in its page items to submit list, the correct values will be retrieved.
Take note that the “debug items” are required in this solution though. Just set them as hidden and unprotect their value. Your goal should be to reduce the amount of roundtrips to the server. Why do a plsql (ajax) call just to retrieve a session state, when the value is already on the page and all in one action? Three hidden items is just so much easier than 3 extra ajax calls, the tradeoff is plenty.
There is one more noteworthy point, and that is the fact that dept is being retrieved twice. That makes sense because of the cascading lovs. Initially company is changed, and this will refresh division and this in turn will trigger a refresh on dept. At this point the lov for dept will be empty, because division will be empty. Because we set the value of division again after it has refreshed, this will trigger a second refresh on dept, though now the correct list of values is retrieved because division has a value set. Not that big an issue, but good to point out. If you’d have another cascading lov beneath dept, it would refresh three times.

Is it possible to change LOV definition using dynamic action?
Hi,
I have a multi-select LOV page item, P27_MULTI_CLASS_CODE, defined as below. On page load, this list only contains values based on what has been passed to P27_OLO_CODE or P27_OLO_CODE_SW.
SELECT DISTINCT c.class_code d, c.class_code r
FROM ORGANIZATION o,
POSITION p,
CLASS c
WHERE o.org_wk = p.org_wk
AND p.class_wk = c.class_wk
AND o.org_active_flag = 'Y'
AND p.pos_active_flag = 'Y'
AND c.class_active_flag = 'Y'
AND (o.olo_code = :P27_OLO_CODE
OR o.olo_code = :P27_OLO_CODE_SW)
ORDER BY c.class_code ASC
Before submitting the page, I would like the LOV definition of P27_MULTI_CLASS_CODE to change to the following (similar query without reference to P27_OLO_CODE or P27_OLO_CODE_SW) based on whether the user selects checkbox item, P27_ALLOW_SW. By doing this, P27_MULTI_CLASS_CODE would contain a full range of values rather than limited values.
SELECT DISTINCT c.class_code d, c.class_code r
FROM ORGANIZATION o,
POSITION p,
CLASS c
WHERE o.org_wk = p.org_wk
AND p.class_wk = c.class_wk
AND o.org_active_flag = 'Y'
AND p.pos_active_flag = 'Y'
AND c.class_active_flag = 'Y'
ORDER BY c.class_code ASC
I wanted to avoid writing Javascript. Is this possible using dynamic actions...or at least somehow refresh P27_MULTI_CLASS_CODE so that it ignores P27_OLO_CODE and P27_OLO_CODE_SW?
I've tried creating a dynamic action to clear the value of P27_OLO_CODE or P27_OLO_CODE_SW, in hope it would trigger P27_MULTI_CLASS_CODE to display all values, but it has not been successful. Any ideas?
APEX 4.2I was able to resolve by changing the SQL statement to P27_MULTI_CLASS_CODE. Note: I also included an additional condition.
SELECT DISTINCT c.class_code d, c.class_code r
FROM ORGANIZATION o,
POSITION p,
CLASS c
WHERE o.org_wk = p.org_wk
AND p.class_wk = c.class_wk
AND o.org_active_flag = 'Y'
AND p.pos_active_flag = 'Y'
AND c.class_active_flag = 'Y'
AND (:P27_ALLOW_SW = 'Y'
OR (o.olo_code = :P27_OLO_CODE
OR o.olo_code = :P27_OLO_CODE_SW)
AND (:P27_PAY_PLAN IS NULL
OR p.pay_plan = :P27_PAY_PLAN)
ORDER BY c.class_code ASC
I also changed the Cascading LOV Parent Item(s) value to: P27_OLO_CODE,P27_OLO_CODE_SW,P27_PAY_PLAN,P27_ALLOW_SW. Optimize Refresh = No, since a change in any one of these values should trigger refresh of LOV.
The Dynamic Action was also modified to NULL out P27_OLO_CODE,P27_OLO_CODE_SW when P27_ALLOW_SW was enabled.
So far, so good! Thanks for your suggestions Tom and Howard! -
How to make a default value by using dynamic actions
Hi,
I want to default a field nationality in infotype 0002 as a great britan, using dynamic actions but unable to go ahead. Any help regarding this really appreciate.
Regards
NiranjanHi,
I need some guidance around creating dynamic action with default value, Please guide me through.
I am aware I can set default values for new infotype, but I need to set default value for same infotype, let me explain the scenario.
Currently employee is on one pension scheme which is called NE1 and now we are moving this employee to CRESP Pension Scheme.
When employee is in NE1, his IT0071 has got a opt in field with a flag on, when the same employee is moved from NE1 pension scheme to CRESP Pension scheme, his new IT0071 record should have the same opt in field with a flag on, I want it to set this flag automatically using dynamic action. I dont want to update this field manually, while moving from NE1 to CRESP.
Currently the below dynamic action is coded when employees are being moved form NE1 to CRESP, but now they will have a opt in flag which should appear automatically, What needs to be done to make this happen?
Please let me know if I set default value for the Opt in field for the same infotype.
. When employees are being moved from NE1 to CRESP pension scheme we currently use a dynamic action as show below:
0071 04 10 I INS,0069
0071 04 20 W P0069-BEGDA=P0071-BEGDA
0071 04 30 W P0069-ENDDA=P0071-ENDDA
0071 06 1 F DYNACT_PAE031(ZHRPROG016)
Also if it is not possible via dynamic action could you please explain how to create it using user exit, I am not an ABAPer.
Your help is very much appreciated.
Kind Regards,

How to use dynamic action to fill multi item on a page ?
Hi..
I want to fill multi items on a page so I build a dynamic action ( Execute PL/SQL Code ) to do it .The problem is that when the page loads I can't see any data and I tried to see the session values using debug and I found data. Moreover when I save the row I got these data saved.
So what is the magic there?
ThanksFirstly, to get the multi-select populated with "pre-selected" values the easiest approach is to use Computation or Process at a process point On Load Before Header or After Header or Before Regions.
All you need to do is populate your "Select List " page Item with : (colon) separated list of selected values. E.g is you want A,B and C out of A,B,C,D,E selected then get A:B:C into the Page Item.
If you have used Dynamic Actions, what is your event on which the action fires? For Dynamic-Actions the page (HTML DOM) needs to be existing , so it must fire after the page has loaded.

About creating an AJAX page with DML procedures using dynamic actions
About creating an AJAX page with DML procedures in APEX using dynamic actions. Help with limitations.
I want to share my experience, creating AJAX procedures in APEX 4.0.
LIMITATIONS
• How Can I Hide UPDATE button while I press NEW button. ??
• How Can I Hide CREATE button while I’m UPDATING A RECORD. ??
• How can I avoid multiple Inserts or Updates. ??
Here are the steps to create an AJAX Updatable Form using the sample table DEPTS. You can see the demo here: [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=15488:1]
1) Create a blank page
2) Add a Report Region for departments (It shows the columns deptno, dname and loc).
3) Add an HTML Region and create the elements to edit a Department.
a. P1_DEPTNO (Hidden to store PK)
b. P1_DNAME (Text Field)
c. P1_LOC (Text Field)
4) You also have to create a hidden element called P1_ACTION. This will help to trigger dynamic actions to perform DMLs.
5) Open Page Attributes and in the HTML Header Section include the following code.
<script>
function doSelect(pId){
$x_Value(‘P1_DEPTNO’,pId);
$x_Value(‘P1_ACTION’,’SELECT’);
</script>
6) Modify the column DEPTNO in the report, to add column link. In the link text you can use #DEPTNO# , in target you must select ‘URL ‘ and in the URL field write javascript:doSelect(#DEPTNO#);
7) Create the following Buttons in the Form Region.
CANCEL Redirects to URL: javascript:$x_Value(‘P150_ACTION’,’CANCEL’);
NEW Redirects to URL: javascript:$x_Value(‘P150_ACTION’,’NEW’);
SAVE Redirects to URL: javascript:$x_Value(‘P150_ACTION’,’UPDATE’);
CREATE Redirects to URL: javascript:$x_Value(‘P150_ACTION’,’CREATE’);
8) Create the following Dynamic Action to Select a Department
Name: Select Dept
Event: Change
Selection Type: Item(s)
Item(s): P1_ACTION
Condition: equal to
Value: SELECT
Action: Execute PL/SQL Code
PL/SQL Code:
SELECT dname, loc
INTO :P1_DNAME, :P1_LOC
FROM dept
WHERE deptno = :P1_DEPTNO;
Page Items to Submit: P1_DEPTNO, P1_DNAME, P1_LOC
Don’t include any false action and create the Dynamic Action.
The first limitation, the value of page elements don’t do refresh so I added the following true actions to the dynamic action AFTER Execute PL/SQL Code.
Action: Set Value
Unmark *‘Fire on page load’* and *‘Stop execution on error’*
Set Type: PL/SQL Expression
PL/SQL Expression: :P1_DNAME
Page Items to submit: (none) (leave it blank)
Affected Elements: Item P1_DNAME
Action: Set Value
Unmark *‘Fire on page load’* and *‘Stop execution on error’*
Set Type: PL/SQL Expression
PL/SQL Expression: :P1_LOC
Page Items to submit: (none) (leave it blank)
Affected Elements: Item P1_LOC
These actions allow refresh the items display value.
9) Create the following Dynamic Action to Update a Department
Name: Update Dept
Event: Change
Selection Type: Item(s)
Item(s): P1_ACTION
Condition: equal to
Value: CREATE
Action: Execute PL/SQL Code
PL/SQL Code:
UPDATE dept SET
dname = :P1_DNAME,
loc = :P1_LOC
WHERE deptno = :P1_DEPTNO;
Page Items to Submit: P1_DEPTNO, P1_DNAME, P1_LOC
Don’t include any false action and create the Dynamic Action.
Include the following True Actions BEFORE the Execute PL/SQL Code true Action.

Set Type: PL/SQL Expression
PL/SQL Expression: :P1_LOC
Page Items to submit: P1_LOC
Affected Elements: Item P1_LOC
These actions allow refresh the items display value.
Finally to refresh the Departments report, add the following true action at the end
Action: Refresh
Affected Elements: Region Departments
10) Create the following Dynamic Action to Create a Department
Name: Create Dept
Event: Change
Selection Type: Item(s)
Item(s): P1_ACTION
Condition: equal to
Value: CREATE
Action: Execute PL/SQL Code
PL/SQL Code:

Send mail using Dynamic actions
Hello experts,
How to send a mail using Dynamic Actions??
Requirement : Lets say one employee is hired on 26th Aug, so after 10 days he will be confirmed. so on 8th day need to send a mail to concerned person reminding the confirmation date.
so how do i do that using dynamic actions??
Thanks in advance.
SaurabhHi,
In dynamic actions there is an option for calling sub-routine from any program or subroutine pool. So u can make subroutine for sending mail according to ur requirement. An call on th same from dynamic actions.
if u want sample code for this, pls let me know.

How can a classic report be filtered using one select item and dynamic action?
APEX 4.2.1
DB 11g
I have a page with 4 reports on it. The top report is an interactive report and the following 3 are classic reports. The users would like to be able to use a select list to filter the 3rd report by PO line number without refreshing the entire page.
After verifying that the report is set to allow partial refreshes, I took the following steps
1. Created a PO Line select item (p_po_line_select) in the same report region
2. Added p_po_line_select to the report query
3. Created a dynamic action on p_po_line_select with 2 true actions
1. Set value (p_po_line_select)
2. Refresh report region.
The Set Value dynamic step was not working; I would get an out of memory error at line 2, memory stack error, or the value did not get saved to session state depending on the settings I selected. I was able to get it working with the following set:
1. Action = Set Value
2. Set type = PL/SQL Expression
3. PL/SQL Expression = :p_field_does_not_exist
4. Page items to submit = blank
5. Selection Type = Item(s)
6. Item(s) = p_field_does_not_exist
p_field_does_not_exist does not exist as a page or application item which leads me to believe that this is a bug and I am just lucky that it worked. I would rather know how to do this properly. Can someone please provide a link to a working example of how this should be done or state which settings are wrong?
I was able to reproduce the issue in the following app

Regards,
PavanHi JTan414,
I have check the expression you have provided and there are many incorrect using of this expression, please check and do some modification as below:
For the MonthName function you should follow the grammar like:
=MonthName(10,True)
=MonthName(Month(Fields!BirthDate.Value),False)
="The month of your birthday is " & MonthName(Month(Fields!BirthDate.Value))
You have add the dataset name "DealStarts" at the wrong place, it should like below:
=Last(MonthName(Month(Fields!BirthDate.Value)),"DealStarts")
or
=Last(MonthName(Fields!IntegerValueField.Value),"DealStarts")
This will return the last value from the dataset
There is no function named launchdate, expression "launchdate ("RowofTrendingVisibility")" is incorrect and you shouldn't add the datasetname in this way.
If the expression involved of conditions from two different datasets, limit kinds of functions will support to use:
=Last(Fields!BirthDate.Value,"DataSetName")
=First(Fields!BirthDate.Value,"DataSetName")
More details information about how to use expression in SSRS:
Expression Examples (Report Builder and SSRS)
If you still have any problem, please try to provide more details information about your requirements and also some sample data.

Populating Text Field using Dynamic Actions is not working
I've a Select List (P14_ACCOUNT) and Text Field (P14_BILLING_ADDRESS_1) on a form. On selecting a value on the Select List, I've to populate the Text Fields by fetching its values from the database by using the Select List value as the primary key. To do this, I created a Dynamic Actions (Advanced) on the Select List, with event onchange and Set Value as SQL. However this is not working.
Below are the sqls of Select List and Dynamic Action respectively:
select ACCOUNT_NO || ' - ' || COMPANY_NAME display_value, ACCOUNT_ID return_value
from ACCOUNT
order by 1
select a.address1 from account a where a.account_id = :P14_ACCOUNTNow when I substitute the Dynamic Action sql with any of the below sqls, the value shows up:
select address1 from account where account_id = 41
select address1 from account where rownum=1
select user from dualI thought of seeing the value of :P14_ACCOUNT in session or debug, but session does not show any value and on clicking debug it throws a popup message "Debugging is not enabled for this application."
I've been trying since few hours but with no luck. How can I debug further?
Thanks for the help.
--HozyHozy,
Take alook at your application on apex.oracle.com
The session state for items, when SQL is used, is set using the Page Items to Submit parameter as has been set in your application.

M0001 Parameter Settings for Mail on Change to Infotype Record
Object
Feature
Task
This feature enables you to control who is sent a mail, the text sent,
and the processing type used.
Use
The feature can be used for all master data infotypes for both employees
and applicants.
Note
Decision field TCLAS enables you to control whether processing is
carried out only for employees (TCLAS=A) or only for applicants
(TCLAS=B).
Procedure
The return matrix of the feature has the following form: XXXXX ZZZZZ
XXXXX Mail attribute
o IDTXT - Name of a standard text. The first line is used as a title,
therefore you should formulate the mail after the second
line
of the standard text. The above variable is entered. You can
only activate the infotype fields that trigger a mail.
o RECV1 - Recipient 1 is the administrator for HR master data from the
Organizational Assignment infotype (0001) who is responsible
for the employee on today's date.
For applicants this is the personnel officer.
The user name contained in T526 is converted into an office
name. This conversion takes place for RECV2 and RECV3.
o RECV2 - Recipient 2 is the payroll administrator taken from
the Organizational Assignment infotype (0001) who is
responsible for the employee on today's date.
This field is not supported for applicants.
o RECV3 - Recipient 3 is for the Time Management administrator taken
from the Organizational Assignment infotype (0001) who is
responsible for the employee on today's date.
This field is not supported for applicants.
o SUBTY - You want the employee whose data is changed to receive an
e-mail
Here you specify which subtype is to be used to read the
employee's infotype 0105 record, that is, in which subtype
you
store the employee's mail name. The employee only
receives a mail if SUBTY is filled.
o OUTBX - The mail should be in the sender's outbox.
o DISTR - Distribution list that is stored in the general folders
in SAP-Office (Transaction SO04).
o NAME1 - If the infotype that triggers the mail is not the
Organizational Assignment infotype (0001), then the feature
specified is read.
You can define distribution lists and recipients in
this feature. The standard SAP system contains the
feature RCIEV, which can be used as an example.
o NAME2 - If the infotype that triggers the mail is the
Organizational Assignment infotype (0001),
then the feature specified will be read
using the new data contained in infotype 0001. New data
means data contained in an infotype record for infotype
0001 that has been changed after the mail was sent. You
can define a distribution list and a recipient in this
feature.
The standard SAP system contains the feature RCNEW,
which can be used as an example.
o NAME3 - If the infotype that triggers the mail is the
Organizational Assignment infotype (0001),
then the feature specified here, will be
read using the old data contained in the infotype. Old
data means data prior to changing the infotype record that
triggered a mail to be sent. You can define distribution
lists and recipients in the feature. The standard SAP
system contains feature RCOLD, which can be used as an
example.
You can give a mail a process. The recipient of the mail can start the
transaction specified from the mail:
o TCODE - Transaction code
o PAINF - Infotype
o PASUB - Subtype
o PABEG - Begin date
o PAEND - End date
o PAFCD - Function code (OKcode)
ZZZZZ 30-character value that is entered in the field.
o XXXXX = IDTXT: ZZZZZ is a standard text from SAPScript with the text
ID PAMA (Transaction SO10)
o XXXXX = RECV1, RECV2, RECV3: ZZZZZ=X is the appropriate
administrator who is to receive the mail
o XXXXX = SUBTY: ZZZZZ is 4-digit subtype for the infotype 0105
o XXXXX = OUTBX: ZZZZZ=X the mail is put in the sender's outbox
o XXXXX = TCODE: ZZZZZ=PA30, PA20, PB30 or PB20
o XXXXX = PAINF: ZZZZZ is the 4-digit number of an infotype
o XXXXX = PASUB: ZZZZZ is the 4-digit number of a subtype
o XXXXX = PABEG, PAEND: ZZZZZ= either an 8-digit date in the format
YYYYMMDD, e.g. ZZZZZ=19950630 for "30.06.1995", or enter the name of
a variable in inverted commas, e.g. ZZZZZ='P0001-ENDDA'. The
following exist: P0001-BEGDA, P0001-ENDDA, P0002-BEGDA, P0002-ENDDA,
Pnnnn-BEGDA, Pnnnn-ENDDA, nnnn is the number of the infotype that
triggers the mail to be sent.
o XXXXX = PAFCD: ZZZZZ=COP Copy, ZZZZZ=DEL Delete, ZZZZZ=DIS
Display, ZZZZZ=EDQ Lock/Unlock, ZZZZZ=INS Create, ZZZZZ=MOD Change
By using the operation NEXTR, you will jump into the feature's
subsequent line. The last line of an action is closed with commas (not
NEXTR). -
Info group being not called while using Dynamic Actions
Hi,
I am facing a scenario that, while we execute some action from PA40 like termination, then it will call my subroutine for dynamic actions which will be calculating the last day worked and updating the same in Info Type 0041.
For updating the IT 0041, i am using the function module HR_MAINTAIN_MASTERDATA. and IT0041 is getting updated properly. But now the problem is coming that when the control comes out of subroutine, it is going back to the PA40 Screen and not to the next screen of the Info group.
What can be the cause for the same.
RND I have done on my part: I have commented/uncommented the return parametre RP50D-Date1, commented/uncomented the use of function modules to lock and Unlock the pernr.
Please give ur comments.
Thanks in Advance.Hi Nisha,
Not sure if I have understood correctly, but if you just wanted to calculate leaving date and write the same date in IT0041 then you don't need a function module:
1. Create a small program, as follows:
REPORT ZHR_PY_R0008 .
INCLUDE MPPDAT00.
TYPE-POOLS HRQTA.
TABLES: P0000,
RP50D,
T001P.
ROUTINE CALLED BY TABLE T588Z
FORM CHANGE_DATE.
RP50D-DATE1 = P0000-BEGDA - 1 .
ENDFORM. " CHANGE_DATE
This program will give you the last working day written to RP50D-DATE1
2. Simply enter the following lines into table T588Z:
0000 04 499*- LEAVING ACTION - Populate Infotypes with leave date -*
0000 04 500 P T001P-MOLGA='08'
0000 04 501 P PSPAR-TCLAS='A'
0000 04 502 P PSPAR-MASSN='*'/X (* equals your leaving action types)
0000 04 503 P PSPAR-MASSN='*'/X (* equals your leaving action types)
0000 04 504 F CHANGE_DATE(ZHR_PY_R0008)
0000 04 505 ******** INF.0041 ********
0000 04 506 I COP,0041,,,(P0000-BEGDA),(P0000-ENDDA)/D
0000 04 507 W P0041-DAR07='*' (* equals your date type)
0000 04 508 W P0041-DAT07=RP50D-DATE1
or if you are simply looking to delimit IT0041 with the leave date then replace lines 506-508 with:
0000 04 506 I MOD,0041,,,(RP50D-DATE1),(RP50D-DATE1)/D
0000 04 507W P0041-ENDDA=RP50D-DATE1
This will solve your problem : - )
