TEMPLATE.fmb - no fields show up

Hi,
I'm trying to develop a custom form but having trouble with the template.
1. Copy template to my directory in Unix and compile.
2. I run it through the applications but no fields show up on the template. Is this normal? I don't think it is but I haven't created a new form from the template in a couple of years.
3. Messing around with the form I removed the sub-class and was able to get a couple of fields to display but I changed so many things I don't seem to be able to duplicate. And I really want to be able to use the standard sub-classes which still didn't work when I set the fields manually.
Thanks for any help.
Andy
Additional information:
I've also concluded that when I compile an existing form FNDSCAPP.fmb errors occur so it is not limited to the template.fmb.
See error below, there was only one. Any ideas as to what would cause this?

Oracle Forms is a tool (somewhat like Visual Basic in appearance, but the code inside is PL/SQL) which allows a developer to quickly create user-interface applications which access an Oracle database in a very efficient and tightly-coupled way. It was originally developed to run server-side in character mode on any Unix box, before Windows existed. It was then ported to Windows to function in a client-server environment. Recent versions have been ported to Java. It now runs in a J2EE container and can integrate with Java and web services.

POST-QUERY trigger cannot retrieve the database field in TEMPLATE.fmb

I have tried to create a form using TEMPLATE.fmb in Oracle Apps R11i. I found that the POST-QUERY trigger cannot retrieve the database field (which is display item property) properly. Can anyone tell me how to retrieve the displayed database fields? Thanks for any helps.

POST-QUERY would fire after the query has been executed, it does not do the actual data retrieve.
See if the items you have put have the data source properties set and are not control items.
btw, this forum is for OA users, you would get better response to your query if you post it in forms forum

What table/fields show if a PO Item has a G/R Expected?

Hi experts,
I am coding a program in SRM, but not sure I'll find these answers there, so I'm likely going to do a RFC to ECC and get the values, but need to know how to identify.
In ECC:
(1) What table/field shows if a PO item has a G/R expected?
(2) Where can I find if the PO item has any open receipts?
(3) Where can I find the amount remaining to be invoiced on a PO item?
Thank you very much!
Mark

Hi,
I think EKPO-WEPOS = 'X' mentions that it is expecting G/R..Please see the data element WEPOS documentation for details...
1) The above is the answer
For 2) and 3) You can check the table EKBE...in that you can use the field VGABE to different between invoice receipt and goods receipt..
1 Goods Receipt
2 Invoice Receipt
Thanks

SQL Subscription field shows * only with Dynamic Text Label in SQL query

We are using Hyperion Analyzer 7.2.x for showing budget and actual data. I have to show this financial data based on the security e.g. person in IT can see only IT dept. data. Hence I want to use dynamic text label <<userid>> for the security based on the person logging in to Analyzer.
But when I use dynamic text label <<userid>> in the SQL query in SQL Spreadsheet, SQL Subscription field shows * only selection option. Does anyone have idea how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance for your help.
-SV

Hi
Okay i know this is a bit crazy way.....but i think this is the solution for your issue.
Create a report without the where clause (<<useris>>) then add a filter (sql subscription) then you can find all the values that are there in the SQL field (try to increase the query limit it is set to 250 as default) then edit the spreadsheet and add the where clause (<<userid>>).
This will help you having the filter and the dynamic text label. I think there is an issue when you try to filter it with a where clause.
Hope it helps.

Edit template.fmb to incorporate my custom forms

Hi guys,
I have created 2 forms on my win xp workstation using Forms 6i Builder, both of which work fine. Now i want to install them into the
oracle application on our server (which runs on linux platform). Copied template.fmb, appstand.fmb, the libraries and changed the the
FORMS60_PATH registry to match the folder with the libraries. I can open/compile the template form without any errors or problems.
As far as i understood i have to incorporate them in the template.fmb but i wasnt able to do this. Tried to copy each object from my forms
in the object lists of template.fmb but when i was opening the canvas all elements were piled up in the top left corner of it and were scaled to tiny sizes.
How exactly do i go from here? Just to remind you i have 2 forms so i have to go through the process twice.
i have just tried something else. I have copied the objects from my forms to a new blank form and it works. But with template.fmb
everything is messed up.
Thanks,
Iulian
PS: Sry if this is the wrong branch, i've just been told to post in the E-business Suite.

So basicly you are saying this :
1. I can just as well compile my forms on the server as they are and they would work but it wouldnt follow the recommended standard.
2. What i did is just circling the bullseye.. in other words i didn't use the template as intended. If this is true please tell me how to actually edit the template.fmb to bring in the content that i have already created. I have read other threads about this and none explained this issue.
A quick step by step would help.
Right?
Thanks Kiran!
So this question remains open for the moment.
Edit: going home now, will answer tomorrow.

How to implement custom lov button without the standard template.fmb?

hello,
i am developing a application using oracle forms 10g. i can't use the standard template.fmb because my application does not run in ebs. there comes the problem: i want to implement the lov button function like the template does, such as :
1. when the text item get focus, lov button display.
2. when the text item lost focus, lov button disappear.
3. when scrollbar scrolls, the position of lov button adjust accordingly.
4. there is only one lov button in one form and the lov button was created dynamicly.
i found it's so complex to do this.

app.ui.lovButtons=falsein $ORACLE_HOME\forms\java\oracle\forms\registry\registry.dat

Problem in enter-query and execute-query in TEMPLATE.fmb in Oracle Apps R11

I have created the form using TEMPLATE.fmb in Oracle Apps R11i. There is 2 problems listed below when it queries the records:-
1) Cannot query the record by the specific value e.g. Cannot retrieve the PO records by entering the specific PO number.
2) Always display the message 'Do you want to save the record?' whenever the <ENTER-QUERY> key (i.e. F11) is pressed.
HOWEVER, it works fine for ALL records without entering any specific values.
Does anybody help to solve these two problems? Any hints? Thanks for any helps.

try setting the block status to query or record
status to new prior to getting in the enter-query
mode.
Thanks

After "Configure Feature", "Changed By" field shows my name for most of work items

I recently upgraded TFS from 2010 to 2012. And I am running "Configure Feature" for every project. The configuration ran successfully. However, when I run a query, the "Changed By" field shows my name for most of work items. I thought
configuration should never touch the data. More interesting, I go to history of work items, there is no change by me at all. Now why did history and query show totally different data?
Thanks.

Hi Jason,
You can create a new work item to have a check if the same issue occurrs. To configure features, you can refer to the links below to see if you configured correctly:

Please elaborate more details about the configuration feature steps if the issue persists. You can also run TFS best practice analyzer to see if there configuration issues.

UI Field showing only integers

Hi all
I need to create a field on a form that only allows the user to input whole numbers (integers).
I've implemented this as follows:
private JFormattedTextField readTimeOut;
protected void createComponents()
        NumberFormatter numberFormatter = new IntegerFormatter();
        readTimeOut = new JFormattedTextField(numberFormatter);
        readTimeOut.setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.RIGHT);
}This works in the sense that it only allows integer values in the field, and along with other code, does just about everything I need.
The only problem I have is changing the number entirely. The numberFormatter will not let me delete the last character in the field.
E.g.
If the initial value is 600,000, and I delete the 6, the field shows 0. I cannot delete this zero so that the field is empty, which I need to do.
If I delete the zeros one after the other, I am left with a 6 that I can't delete.
This is not good, because to update the field from 600,000 to 12 (for example), I have to do the following:
1. Delete all the zeros, leaving the 6.
2. Enter 12, meaning the value in the field is now 612, or 126 depending on how the initial value was modified by the user.
3. Delete the 6.
I've looked at the NumberFormatter and IntegerFormatter classes and documentation but can't see anything that allows the field to contain blank values.
Is there an option to allow an IntegerFormatter to have a blank field?
If not, can anyone suggest another way of doing this?
Thanks

Kleopatra wrote:
what is IntegerFormatter, custom class? Or did you mean:
NumberFormatter numberFormatter = new NumberFormatter(NumberFormat.getIntegerInstance());    Anyway, what happens is that
- NumberFormat doesn't accept null, throws a parse exception
- JFormattedTextField doesn't accept values if the format objects
That leaves 2 locations to tackle
a) implement a custom format which does handle the null (as does SwingX NumberFormatExt)
b) subclass JFormattedTextField and manually null the value in commitEdit if the text is empty

Edited by: Kleopatra on Apr 6, 2011 2:50 PMThanks for all the replies. I've got it working with a DocumentListener, but that loses the thousands formatting. Not a disaster, but something to consider.
Jeanette, you're right, the IntegerFormatter is a custom class that extends NumberFormatter. I didn't realise this. I'm still fairly new to Java, and am still learning using existing code in the product I'm developing.
Of the two options above, I think I prefer using a custom format. I'd assumed the IntegerFormatter class was a standard class, so hadn't thought of changing it. As that's already custom I can either change that or create my own version.
Thanks for the help.

Template.fmb error with Forms 9i

Hi, please could someone explain how the following error can be solved.
I have been given a Form as an .FMB file which I need to modify slightly and then compile to an .FMX file. However when I load the .FMB file into Forms Builder 9i an error dialog appears containing the message:
FRM-18108: Failed to load the following objects.
Source Module:Template.fmb
Source Object: WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE
Source Module:Template.fmb
Source Object: WHEN-WINDOW-CLOSED
etc, etc, etc.
This is followed by a second error dialog stating:
FRM-10102: Cannot attach PL/SQL library Form. This library attachment will be lost if the module is saved.
FRM-10102: Cannot attach PL/SQL library Company. This library attachment will be lost if the module is saved.
Can someone please explain this? I can find no trace of a file called 'Template.fmb' anywhere on my machine!
Many thanks for your help. I will be very grateful for any clues!
Terry.

Thanks for your reply Professor Yaffle. Originally I assumed that 'Template.fmb' (plus other library files) must be something specifically developed by the people who gave me the .FMB source file, however I then did a search with Google and came across several references to a file called 'Template.fmb' (usually in the context of an older version of Forms, 6), which suggested that this file may be a generic Oracle file which ships with Forms (or an old version of Forms).
Unfortunately none of the hits that I obtained with Google were particularly useful in telling me what this file is or where I can get a copy (if it is a generic publicly available file). There were several comments along the lines of, "download files from the $AU_TOP/resources directory to your local disk", but what is $AU_TOP?
I am now beginning to think that perhaps 'Template.fmb' really is something that was developed by the people who gave me the .FMB source file, as you suggest.
By the way Professor Yaffle, I see that you are in Bath, UK which, by coincidence, is only about 14 miles north of where I am (Frome)! Small world, as they say.

How to have a field show twice in the alv?

hi,
there are two questions about alv (OO).
1. i want to make a field show twice in the ALV,. For example, value of first column is 'A', and now 'A' should also show in the fifth column. which method should i use? or other solutions?
2. i have known two fields, and they are field 'A' and field 'Bbbb', how to have them show in the same column such as 'A Bbbb'
Thanks in advance!

Hello Daniel,
There's no direct way to do this. however, it is technically possible to meet your requirement.
1. The internal table should also contain another field for the 5th column. There should also be a corresponding entry in the field-catalog. Before calling the ALV Grid, the values for this field should be populated with the same values as the values in the 1st field.
2. Again, the internal table should contain the corresponding field and the field catalog should have it as well. Before calling the ALV Grid, concatenate the values into this field and display them.
I hope this helps. If not, please get back and we should be glad to help you.
Regards,
Anand Mandalika.

Cannot attach PL/SQL library APPCORE when opening template.fmb

Hi,
we have downloaded all .pll from $AU_TOP/resource directory to local folder and given path in windows registry ie HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE/FORMS60_PATH to the local folder in which all pll are kept,
i have kept all the important fmb in the local folder, APPSTAND.fmb, Template.fmb and every other pll from $AU_TOP/resource, but still i get the cannot attach pl/sql library error when i open template.fmb is something missing.
Is there something missing, kindly do respond :)
thanks in anticipaition of early response.
Abdul Rahman

Hi erlative,
Thanks for your message, i just made sure that i have all the pll's only in the forms_60 path and it worked, somehow when i copied all the $AU_TOP/resource apart from APPDAYPK.pll and APPCORE, APPCORE2.pll, it didnt copy all the files, so when i copied all addittional files it worked.
thanks for your solution.
have a nice day :)
Best Regards
