Sun IdM: How to set a multi-value field on document.mainform via javascript

The following will set variables.variable1 to variables.variable2 when the "Script Link" component is clicked. I would like to modify
this so that el2 references a multi-valued element (e.g. a list generated by a Select Field)
<Field>
<Display class='Javascript'>
<String>
function myScript() {
el=getElement(document.mainform,"variables.variable1");
el2=getElement(document.mainform,"variables.variable2");
el.value=el2.value;
</String>
</Display>
</Field>
<Field name='Script Link'>
<Display class='Link'>
<Property name='URL'>
<String>javascript:myScript();submitCommand(document.mainform,%20'Recalculate');</String>
</Property>
</Display>
</Field>
My issue is, if variables.variable2 is a list / multivalued, i get errors trying to traverse through the "array".
How can i read and set a list element via the javascript function above? I've tried things like get(), put() , as well
as path expressions like variables.variable2[0] .
any help would be appreciated....
is there an API somewhere i can reference?

The MultiSelect field-type is a little different than the rest of the fields. If you use the applet version, then selecting/deselecting values cannot be captured by referencing the field directly in javascript.
The way to identify the selections is to use the javascript methods includes/MultiSelect.js file (IDM form submission uses the same method):
fixMultiSelectAppletBeforeSubmit( )
fixMultiSelectNonAppletBeforeSubmit( )
.. and then referencing the "<multiselect-field>_selected" form element.
So in your case, the code should look something like this:
function myScript() {
 fixMultiSelectAppletBeforeSubmit(document.mainform,"variables.variable1");
 var el1 = getElement(document.mainform,"variables.variable1_selected");
 // assign the value to variable2..
 el2 = getElement(document.mainform,"variables.variable2");
 el2.value = el1.value;
}Just make sure ":variables.variable2" is not a multi-select field, else the value set here will be reset during form submission.

How to set a object value bound to a session to JavaScript variable

In a JSP, I store an object value in a HttpSession and I also write a Javascript function to display something on the screen. I need to use the Javascript function to display the object value which is stored in the session. How to set the object value to variable of the JavaScript function. Thanks.

I write a class JavaScriptHelper to convert the object value to variable of the JavaScript;
1.get the data to a javabean from database;
2.convert the data to variable of the JavaScript as a String ;
3.store the object in a HttpSession or Httprequest ;
4.use in Jsp get the String (variable of the JavaScript )
YourBean bean = (YourBean) request.getAttribute("model");
if (bean != null) out.println(bean .getJsCode())
convert function,(this is only for the matrix):
public static String formatJsCode(Vector vector) {
String sJsCode = "";
//get js head
sJsCode = getJsHeader();
//define js array;
sJsCode += "var data=new Array();\n";
Vector v = null;
String sTemp = "", sLine = "";
for (int i = 0; i < vector.size(); i++) {
v = (Vector) vector.get(i);
sLine = "";
for (int j = 0; j < v.size(); j++) {
sTemp = (String) v.get(j);
//replace " to \"
sTemp = sTemp.replaceAll("\"", "\\\\\\\"");

How to set a column value in a tabular form via button

Hi All,
I am using Apex 3.0.1. And to create the form I am using the APEX interface tool
I have tabular updateable report. In the same page I have a LOV field where I can choose some possible results.
I want to have a button so I can select a value in the LOV, take this value and populate the column value to the LOV value for all rows in the tabular form.
The LOV and the buttons are done.. to update the column I tried creating a pl/sql that is executed when the button is pressed and has the following update in a loop for each element:
begin
for i in 1..APEX_APPLICATION.g_f01.count loop
APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02(i) := :P1_MY_LOV_VALUE;
end loop;
commit;
end;
When I press the button, the page refreshes but nothing happens. I don't see any changes in the Values for the column I am trying to update
Thanks

Hi user477501,
If you are doing this after a SUBMIT, then try updating your data table instead of the g_f02 array. When you page is re-rendered, it should re-query your data table.
If you do not want to submit the page, then try your hand at JavaScript.
A good reference for this is Mike Hichwa's article at:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/oracle/06-nov/o66browser.html
Be sure to download the example application, it is very helpful.
I hope this helps.

How To Import Into A Table with Multi-Value Fields

Hello:
I have a table with a multi-value field that contains states in which a company does business. It is multi-value because there can be more than one state. I tried to import a text tab-delimited file in which the data was arranged as follows:
Field1 Tab Field 2 Tab OR, WA, CA Tab
The "State field contained the multiple entries separated by a comma (like they appear in a query of the multi-value field), but it won't accept it. Does anyone know how to import into a multi-value field?
Thanks,

Here's the code I used to populate a multi-value field from a parsed field. The parsing routine could be greatly improved by using the Split function, but at that time, I had not used it yet. FYI... the field name of the multi-value field in

How to query involving Multi-Value Attributes objects

Hello.
 I have one question regarding coherence. We are looking for best and the fastest way to query multi-value attribute of objects. In Coherence User guide there is example, that shows, how can this be made with java.lang.String object:
 Set searchTerms = new HashSet();
 searchTerms.add("java");
 searchTerms.add("clustering");
 searchTerms.add("books");
 // The cache contains instances of a class "Document" which has a method
 // "getWords" which returns a Collection<String> containing the set of
 // words that appear in the document.
 Filter filter = new ContainsAllFilter("getWords", searchTerms);
 Set entrySet = cache.entrySet(filter);
 // iterate through the search results
 But I would like to know, how can this be made with some other object type. For example I could have object MyCoherenceObject with attribute HashSet<Identifier> idHashSet that would represent Person object that has composite key comprised of name and lastname. Identifier object would contain two attributes of type String: name & value.
 So basically I could have two identifiers in list:
 public MyCoherenceObject {
 public HashSet idHashSet = new HashSet();
 public MyCoherenceObject() {
 Identifier id1 = new Identifier("name", "John");
 Identifier id2 = new Identifier("surname", Smith");
 idHashSet.add(id1);
 idHashSet.add(id2);
 public HashSet getIdentifiers() {
 return idHashSet;
 This object would later be inserted in coherence cache. When query over coherence cache would be performed I would like all objects where multi-value parameter with name="name" equal "John" and parameter with name="lastname" equal "Smith". My code would look something like this:
 Set searchTerms = new HashSet();
 searchTerms.add("John");
 searchTerms.add("Smith");
 // The cache contains instances of a class "Document" which has a method
 // "getWords" which returns a Collection<String> containing the set of
 // words that appear in the document.
 Filter filter = new ContainsAllFilter("getIdentifiers", searchTerms);
 Set entrySet = cache.entrySet(filter);
 // iterate through the search results
 How can this be done. Basically I don't know how to search in multi-value attribute if one value represents arbitrary object and how to tell coherence which getter fuction must be used for comparison. In my case getValue() must be used and not getName().
 Second problem:
 Coherence must not return Person object with name="Smith" and lastname="John". Here upper filter would be satisified, but problem is that I am looking for person with lastname "Smith" and name "John".
 Domain description:
 I will have different objects of same type in coherence cache with different multi-value attribute list length. For example some objects will have only one identifier object in list (e.g. Phone "phoneNumber") some two (e.g. Person "name", "lastname") and other objects will have maybe three identifier objects (e.g. City "country", "area", "state").
 If there is faster way to do this in Coherence (I saw examples with getters that contain attributes for example), please give me some directions.
 Thank you very much for your help.

When filtering based on the getIdentifiers, you should add Identifier instances into the searchTerms collection, and it will satisfy all your expectations. If you add simple Strings into that searchTerms collection, then none of your queries will return anything, because the String will never equal() the Identifier instances.
 You can also add an index on the getIdentifiers() method. However, the Identifier class should properly implement the equals() and hashCode() methods, and in order to be able to use an ordered index (you don't need that for the current requirements you listed), it should also implement Comparable.

SRM 4.0- How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC

The radio button Service should not be visible.
Also for search help (e.g. search for internal products) where a search should only be possible for product type 01 (goods). The system should not display the product type and internally always search for goods only.
How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC
We needs to use Search help BBPH_PRODUCT which having parameter PRODUCT_TYPE
Here we can set defalut value 01 but it is not correct one since same search help is using several places.
We need to limit the search help results only for SC.
Kindly help out me ASAP.

The easiest way to set defautl values is to edit the batch class.
Goto the characteiristic and go to update values.
In here you probably have something like 0 - 100 as a spec range.
On the next line enter the default value within this range. At the end of the line, click in the box in the column labelled "D". This indicates the defautl value for the characteristic.
If you need to you can do this in the material classification view as well.
Just to be clear, these values will only show up in the batch record. You can not have defautl values in resutls recording screens.

How to set a variable value on the BPC Data Manager

Hello BPC Experts,
I'm creating a BPC10 NW version demo environment for our prospect customer.
I made a data manager to import BW data into BPC model from BW cube.
I need to import just one month data into BPC from the BW cube that has more than one month data.
When I run the data package manually, I can select a member of the time dimension prompt and I can import specific month data I want.
But, in a case where the program (data manager) runs by JOB monthly,
I can't select a member of the time dimension prompt manually.
So I want to know how to set a variable value to the time dimension prompt from a system date etc. automatically.
Are there any way to set a variable value to the time dimension prompt on the data manager automatically from a system date?
Or, do you have any other solution to import just one month data into BPC from the BW cube that has more than one month data by the data manager running on JOB ?
(without selecting a member of the time dimension prompt of the data package manually)
Thanks in advance,
Keisuke

Hi Gersh
Sorry for my late reply and thanks for your helpful information.
I tried the second way of your information and I could configure it.
And I 'll try first way of your information.

How to set a default value in dropdown list in Wendynpro ABAP? Help!

Hi Experts,
 I have Webdynpro for ABAP application that shows a DropdownwithKey UI element.
1. I am able to populate the dropdown list. But by default the list is not showing any value. Only when I select a value from the list then it shows it.
So how to set the default value to the first value in the list? Any code sample will be really helpfull.
I have written the following code:
method WDDOINIT .
DATA:
 node_category TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node_info.
node_category = WD_CONTEXT->GET_NODE_INFO( ).
node_category = node_category->GET_CHILD_NODE( 'CATEGORY' ).
data: LT_VALUESET type WDR_CONTEXT_ATTR_VALUE_LIST,
 L_VALUE type WDR_CONTEXT_ATTR_VALUE.
L_VALUE-VALUE = 'V1'.
L_VALUE-TEXT = 'yesterday'.
INSERT L_VALUE into table LT_VALUESET.
L_VALUE-VALUE = 'V2'.
L_VALUE-TEXT = 'today'.
INSERT L_VALUE into table LT_VALUESET.
L_VALUE-VALUE = 'V3'.
L_VALUE-TEXT = 'tomorrow'.
INSERT L_VALUE into table LT_VALUESET.
node_category->SET_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE_SET(
 NAME = 'CAT_VALUE'
 VALUE_SET = LT_VALUESET ).
endmethod.
Note that: I am using webdynpro for ABAP.
Thanks
Gopal

I am not sure how it works in Web Dynpro for ABAP, but in Web Dynpro for Java to set default drop down value you will have to set the value for particular attribute (which is linked to the dropdown element) in the context
like
wdContext.currentContext<nodeName>Element.set<FieldName>(<defalut value>)
This generally done in Initialization method of the controller.

How to set a default value for particular field in SRM PO Portal

Dear Gurus,
Im desparetly need a help in web dynpro on how to set a default value for a field(flag) in PO header tab in portal.
My requirement is whenever the user press the edit button in PO screen,automatically a flag field should be set as abap_false.
I dont think this will handle in check badi or change badi. i tried this part in onbuttonpressed overwriteexit in CNR_VIEW views,i can get the function EDIT in debugging mode,but dont know how to proceed further.....
Many of them suggested to go with get attribute and set attribute for changing any particular field in web dynpro,but im not very familiar in using those get and set attributes.I request you people can give me sample code on how to identify my target field in the node and set the values while pressing EDIT Button.
Thanks in advance...
Regards,
Sathish

Dear Laurent,
Thanks for your response,
But i searched in enhancement spot of WD_BADI, but couldnt get the exact way to change the coding,
My real requirement is, that particular flag should be enable and disable dynamically by checking a condition in my header values.So in that case i dont know how to proceed further to handle in the PO screen.
Kinly guide me how to get the particular node of field in the Purchase order screen.
Thanks you in advance,
Sorry for the inconvenience if any

I will connect to server and monitor the remote server JVM , There is a object of User, I want to change its value by the Java Debugger Interface by client.
so how to set its value by the client, and I can not got the User bean at client.
I know the basic type filed value changed as follows:
Value newValue = vmMachine.mirrorOf("change var value");// this field is a string.
stackFrame.thisObject().setValue(field, newValue);
But a Object , how can I change its value.
Thanks Advanced.

ObjectReference.setValue() is the method for chaining the value of an Object's field. First you need to find the specific Object you want to change, though.
