Set parameters values depending on other parameters

Is it possible in the Bex to have a parameter to be used to load data from another infoprovider (then the one of the actual query) in order to populate a select-option in the query ?
- a Customer exit variable seems to be able to only change its own values. It have no access to the other variable and parameters ?
- Replacement path seems to only be based on kind of "hard coded and unchangeable" selections.
So how to do that ?
I also think to use RRI by doing a 1st query but I wonder if all the result of the 1st query (lets say all the orders numbers) could be transfered into the orders select-option of a 2nd query ?

Hi Siegfried

>the select list for your query by another query.
Yes but could I have control on the selections of the replacement path query and fill them in real time ?
I mean could my main query (the user lauching it) cascade its selection to the replacement path query ?
For example :
Let say that I want only orders that have a particular texts in description. The description lines are not in my main query infoprovider.
So could I have a parameter, let say "description contains word:" which could be transfered to the replacement path query in charge of selecting all the orders with the word in text ?
From what I understand atm of the replacement query the selections seems to be "statics".

How to set column value dependend on other column value?

I have a view that selects values from 2 tables with some simple additional joins. Now, i would like to add a column (boolean/bit or varchar2) that represents a flag and is dependen on the value of another column, e.g.
ID | Value | Flag
1 | 4711 | 1
2 | null | 0
So, the flag should be set to 1 if column 'Value' is not null and to 0 if column 'Value' is null. (In another case, i would like to test for specific values, not just null). How can i do this in ORACEL SQL?

This statement will update two flag columns. FLAG1 is set to one or zero depending on whether COL1 is null. FLAG2 is set to one of a range of values depending on whether COL1 is a specific value; the default value is ZERO.
UPDATE your_table
SET flag1 = nvl2(col1, 1, 0)
, flag2 = decode(col1, 5677, 1, 2212, 2, 6276, 3, null, 4, 0)

Payroll: One Element Input Value dependent on Other Input Value

Hi Guys
Can we defined an input value in an element that is dependent on other input value. e.g. say when I am creating an entry to make accrual adjustments, converting 100 Annual Hours to 20 sick hours, I want users to enter 100 and 20 should be reflected automatically.
Is this possible.

I'm afraid you need a customization for this. I guess a forms personalization will not help you out. Or you enter it via an SIT (with the behavior stated), and you route that data to the element entry (via a user hook).

Setting default value to af:inputdate in jsf page.

Is there a way to set the input date in a form to some default value initially.
I am finding no way to do this. If I set the value from a backing bean function it does not show the date picker next to input date and new values cannot be entered. Ideally, if i set some default value initially i still should be able to change it to any date i want by using date picker next to input date.
There is no other property like "Default Value" on input date component.
Any suggestions ?
using jdev 11.1.2.3

User, you should be able to set the value your date field it's bound to. This value will then show up as default value in the ui.
Don't try to use the component itself to set the value.

Using SEARCH HELP exit in dependency of other parameters from my dynpro.

Hello experts,
how can I access the values of input fields (parameters or select-options) from my dynpro?
I need to build a F4-help in dependencie of another field on the screen with help of the F4 - exit. I think this should be possible.
If I do test the search help with SE11 it works fine. All parameters from screen are given in SHLP_TAB[1]-INTERFACE (the parameter of my f4-help-exit)
The short example explains the problem more detailed.
REPORT test_dynpro_events_ck.
PARAMETERS ea1 TYPE my_char_10_ck DEFAULT 'here I push F4' MATCHCODE OBJECT MY_F4_HELP_CK.
PARAMETERS ea2 TYPE my_char_10_ck DEFAULT 'this is the value I need to generate the F4 help of field ea1'.
MY_F4_HELP_CK:
import: EA1 and EA2
export EA1
Many Thanks
Christian

Thank you so far.
But how are these parameters passed to the search help without using global set/get parameters or DYNPRO_READ_VALUE? Why can I put these parameters to my search help as input parameters ... seems to be useless if I use search help on Selection-Dynpros?
Is there not a better way to deal with search-helps which are dependent from other input fields? Btw. I need the value without passing PAI and PBO.
In my Example:
doing some text inputs in field EA2 -> hit search help on EA1 -> need a selection dialog in dependency of the input in EA2. This can not be that complicated?
Many thanks
Christian

How to set parameters in CR4E

Hi,
Need:
To generate PDF reports from standalone java program using CR4E runtime engine. Reports will be designed using CR4E. The java program will use CR4E engine APIs to open the report and populate date in it from database.
Scenario:
I have created a report and mapped the report fields from SQL file (similar to using it as SQL command). I have also created 2 parameters and also included in the SQL file.
Problem:
1) These parameters don't prompt when run within CR4E designer & i see no way to set these values to work in preview mode and it appears as a blank page. Bcos of above reason, my java application when executed also gnerates blank report as the parameters are not set. How to resolve this?
2) Then i tried using record filters to map the SQL file field name to parameter name in the report. Now, when previewed the prompts for parameters appeared and the report was displayed as expected. But, when the java application gave 'FormulaException: Field name not known' error (with mention to SQL field names used in filter). I am not using any formula in my report so this error is bcos of using record filter. How to resolve this error?
Finally, i need a design & runtime solution to execute my reports with parameters.
TIA,
M.Ravi

CachedRowSetXImpl doesn't set parameters

Hi guys.
I'm using Studio Creator and getting crazy about the couple CachedRowSetXImpl and CachedRowSetDataProvider. I've set the command in the project time with one parameter. In the run time I try to set the value into the command and then refresh the data provider. But It doesn't work:
getGlb_usuariosRowSet().setString(1, (String)getTxtUsuario().getText());
getGlb_usuariosDataProvider().refresh();
After this, if I try to see getGlb_usuariosRowSet().getCommand() it returns the original query with the ? parameters without changing.
Thank you

After a long time of work trying to find a solution in the internet, I've discovered what's going wrong with my code. I was attempting to send a Stored Procedure against MySQL through CachedRowSetXImpl's command. This class doesn't support Stored Procedures at all.
Thks anyway.

Setting Application Set Parameters For Variable

Hi Guys,
When I've read the BPC help about "Setting application set parameters" and the statement likes this :
Allows you to define a custom email message that is sent when a work status code is changed. The message is applicable to all applications in the application set. You can customize the message using the following variables:
%USER% - name of user who changed the status
%ED% - Entity dimension
%EM% - Entity member
%CD% - Category dimension
%CM% - Category member
%TD% - Time dimension
%TM% - Time member
%STA% - Work status
%OWNER% - Entity owner
%TIME% - time of change
For example, you can enter "This is to inform you that %USER% has updated the work status for %EM%, %CM%, %TM% on %TIME%". The message can be up to 255 characters, and there is no need for quotes or brackets around parameters.
The Questions:
When I put the "%ED" into the textfield "APPROVALSTATUSMSG", after that I try to send email from BPF and the "%ED" still same into the email message. But it should describe the value of variable.
Could you help me how to view the value of variable ?
Thanks,

If I look at the available parameters in the helpfile 2 things are strange in my opinion:
1)the parameter is called approvalstatusmsg, approval status was the V4 naming convention of the function, right now it is called workstatus, so it might be a V4 function. Never used it myself but maybe it is something not correctly migrated to v5.
2) Even if it is working in V5, which I don't know for sure, then it is strange that you only have variables for Categroy, time and entity, since you can setup the workstatus for more then these 3 dimensions in V5 which you would also like to have in a case you set it up for more then 3 dimensions. For example for if you want to use Category,time,Entity & Product dimension in the workstatus, you would also like to inform the people which product is updated, since only just category,time and entity won't say that much.
So I think you best check with support if this function is still usable in V5 or if it is an old function from V4. and if it is working in V5, how do you get the right parameters in the variables when you setup workstatus for other dimensions then just Category/time/Entity.
I would like to know the results!

Help setting Parameters using JDBC and Bind Variables for Oracle List

I fully understand the concept of using Bind Variables when using JDBC to avoid hard parses everytime my SQL statement is executed when only a certain value changes. For example, perhaps I have the following statement:
PreparedStatement ps = con.prepareStatement("select salary from employees where employee_id = ?");
I would then set the value of the question mark (the first and in this case only parameter) using:
ps.getStmt().setString(1,empId1);
That is assuming I have the variable empId1 populated with what I want. Anyway, my question has to do with Oracle lists. In other words, if I am just executing the statement against the db, it might look like:
select salary from employees where employee_id in ('123','456','789');
I still want to use bind variables and I can do it in JDBC with something like:
select salary from employees where employee_id in ('123','456','789');
ps.getStmt().setString(1,empId1);
ps.getStmt().setString(2,empId2);
ps.getStmt().setString(3,empId3);
BUT, what if I just want to construct my list of ids upfront as a string and do something like:
select salary from employees where employee_id in (?)
ps.getStmt().setString(1,listOfEmpIds);where listOfEmpIds would look something like '123','456','789'.
That's what I want to do but it doesn't work. It would be treating the list as a single parameter as opposed to lots of individual parameters. Can someone please tell me the syntax for this if it is possible? I have tried where XX in (?) and where XX in ? (and the string I substitute has the parenthesis in it), but neither work.
Thank you for your help.

I always build the list myself.
You could, however, pass the list as a varchar to a stored proc and then have the stored proc parse (or dynamically execute) using it.
The second method might even be faster although I would suspect that is only going to be the case if the list is very large. Or it might not.

Newbie (!) - created a report; have to set parameters to print? How to print it all, please?

Hi,
I confess I'm a newbie. I've created my first table and a report based on that table. When I try to print the report, I get a dialogue box asking for the parameters for certain fields. How do I indicate "print all"? Can I save this setting, to
print all of this document, every time? Do I have to input the parameters for each field, each time I print the document?
I see the value of setting parameters, but don't need to filter this report.
Thanks so very much! Endless gratitude!

That would explain it. Because the report no longer recognizes the references it contains to the div_cde column, it treats it as a parameter. Hence the prompt. You can change the report design so that every reference to div_cde becomes
one to div. This could be in a number of places such as the ControlSource property of a control in the form, or the name of a column (field) by which the report is grouped or ordered, so an easier solution might be to change the table design, renaming
the div column back to div_cde. The report should then work without amendment.
