Tranferring on "select list" value to another "select list" value

We have a drill through feature in our application where the user clicks on a value on page 1 and is taken to page 2. (e.g. the user drills on EUROPE in the REGION column on page 1 and is taken to page 2 where they see a report by countries in EUROPE.)
We also have identical SELECT LISTS on page 1 and on page 2 for REGION (EUROPE, NORTH AMERICA, ASIA). How do we program our application so that when the user clicks on EUROPE on page 1 and is taken to page 2 the value of EUROPE from the REGION SELECT LIST on page 1 is chosen in the REGION SELECT LIST on page 2?
We tried embedding this in the url for the drill through but the REGION SELECT LIST value on page 2 didn't change.
In the below link shouldn't the value of the REGION SELECT LIST named P2_REGION be assigned the current value of the REGION SELECT LIST called P1_REGION? (in this case 'EUROPE')
Thanks for help on this. John Wisnieff

Populate SELECT LIST on selecting value in another SELECT LIST

Hello
I have two SELECT LIST's
1. SELECT LIST with departments : Created a LOV which has all the departments.
2. SELECT LIST with employees : This has to be dynamic.
Based on the value from the first Department SELECT LIST I need to populate the Employee SELECT LIST.
Please let me know, how can I do this.
Appreciate your help
thanks

Hi,
Say you have two form items P1_ITEM1, P2_ITEM2. You want the P2_ITEM2 will be updated according to the selection in P1_ITEM1. I am assuming P1_ITEM1 select list based on the department table. In the lov section for that item type dynamic query -
select dept_id, dname from departments -- change attributes in query as per your table.
set the null value -1 and default value -1 for P1_ITEM1. Change Display null to YES and type -Select dept in the null text.
For P1_ITEM2 in the lov section type the following query for dynamic list -
select emp_id, ename from employees where dept_id = NV(P1_ITEM1) or NV(P1_ITEM1) = -1 -- change attributes in query as per your table.
for the second query assuming that you have dept_id as FK in the employees table. Make sure both fields are selected as select list as display. Now if user select the department from item1 it will update the item2. It will display all the employees if nothing is selected in the item1.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,

Calling a custom resource list filter within another resource list filter

Hi,
We integrated an external repository (Documentum) in KM using a connector provided by them. And we would like to filter the search results given by Trex on a property of those documents.
We thought about implementing a Resource List Filter for the StandardSearchResultRenderer (Search Result Renderer Settings) but it already uses a custom filter A provided by Documentum.
Is it possible to create a new Resource List Filter B that would uses the custom filter A + perform a filter on a property?
Thanks in advance,
Eric

Hi Eric,
Do you know if TREX indexes the properties of the documentum repository? (Sorry to ask this, but I have no access to a documentum repository here) Are the properties part of the index? Easiest way to find out is to go to Display Index Details in TREX monitor, the indexed properties are listed there.
If the properties are indexed you can probably proceed as described in the attached How To Guide from 3.2 onwards. The guide describes in the first part how to configure TREX so that it indexes DC properties from office attributes checked in into KMC- not interesting to you.
The second part (from 3.2) describes how these properties are made searchable, although they are not KM properties and not maintainable in KMC. This might meet your problem. The idea is to create a property in KMC using the property name that it has in TREX index.
Please have a look and let me know if it is a solution for you,
cheers,
Bettina

Getting a value of another textbox in value change listener

Hi
I am associating a value change listener with textbox1. and i need the values of textbox2 inside the listener. So every time, value of textbox1 changes , i want to call a listener which executes a query depending on the value of textbox2 which is constant. But i am not able to get the value of textbox2 inside the listener method.
Thanks in advance..

Read on about the JSF lifecycle. The valuechangelistener will be fired at the end of the 3rd phase of the JSF lifecycle (process validations) and the input values will be set in the bean in the 4th phase of the JSF lifecycle (update model values).
In your case, a complete rewrite of the code may be more useful. If you are actually not interested in the difference between the old value and the new value, then remove the valuechangelistener and put the code logic in the action method of the bean. This will be executed in the 5th phase of the JSF lifecycle (invoke application), after the input values are been set.
Or, in my opinion better, introduce some AJAX framework and make use of its capabilities. For example Ajax4jsf. It saves you from synchronous form submits on every entered character which may lead to poor user experience.
This practical article might be helpful in understanding the JSF lifecycle: [http://balusc.blogspot.com/2006/09/debug-jsf-lifecycle.html]

SELECT LIST - with values after have values in other Select List

My friends.
I need a select list that is self - complemented, after being selected a value in another select list above.
Can you help?
pesquisar

Good afternoon,
Try this for the definition of your select list:
select emp.emp_name as display_column,
emp.emp_id as return_column
from employees emp
where emp.department = :P1_DEPT_NO
order by emp.emp_name;This will look at the select_list called :P1_DEPT_NO, capture the value that is currently selected and then populate the EMPLOYEE select list based on the results. Just use a query like this as the one that defines your second select list.
This seems to be a popular question. Search this forum for other information.

Select report row into another report

I got 2 tables, DERESCE and DRRESERV
DRRESC contains all the available Resources
DRRESRV contains the reservation of a Resource per date.
DRRESRV has 2 Foraign key's of the day and the Resource.
The day PK is on another page item.
Objective:
To click on a link in the DERESCE report and load the resourcePK and dayPK into DRRESERV showing on a report or tabularform.
So its almost like a submit, with one of the values on another page, one value being the PK of a report and the button a link in a report.
Can this be done? And how?

Then move your creation process from on submit to on load and make it conditional to fire only if you have a specific request in your link.

My problem is, like when I click the image a popup report window appears but I am not able to return the value when I clicked the link column on the popup report page.
Can you please help me out with this issue.

How to Refer the Selected value in a Select List

I have a page item which is a select list. I have a button in my region which when clicked will call a process. This process takes the current value of my page item as a parameter. However, when I select a value from the Select list and click on the button, the page item is still submitting the earlier value, it is not getting updated with the value I selected in the select list. Can someone tell me how I can get the page item value to be updated with the value I selected from the choice list? I tried calling a javascript function from the element attribute of this select list onchange="javascript:setValue(this);") and was trying to set the value of another hidden page item with the value of this select list but then the function is not getting called as well. My function code is something like
function setValue(pThis)
for (var i = 0; i < pThis.options.length; i++) {
if (pThis.options[ i ].selected){
result= pThis.options;
html_GetElement('P2_HIDDEN').value = result;
P2_HIDDEN is my hidden page item

How do you know this? Have you used Debug mode to track what is happening when the button is pressed? This will show any changes to item values in session state during page submit and page show processing.
Can someone tell me how I can get the page item value to be updated with the value I selected from the choice list?
This should happen automatically with a select list item, if the button is correctly defined to perform a page submit. It will not happen if the button performs a redirect. What action is defined to occur when the button is pressed?
I tried calling a javascript function from the element attribute of this select list onchange="javascript:setValue(this);") and was trying to set the value of another hidden page item with the value of this select list but then the function is not getting called as well.

if (pThis.options[ i ].selected){
result= pThis.options;
html_GetElement('P2_HIDDEN').value = result;
P2_HIDDEN is my hidden page item
As detailed above, this should be completely unnecessary, however as an aside, html_GetElement is a very out of date method of accessing an item. What version of APEX are you using? (Always specify which version you're using when you ask a question, to allow us to determine the most appropriate solution to the problem.)

How to enter values in the selected list by pressing f4

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem can any one help me in solving this?
When we go to any table thorugh se11 or se16 to display all the records based on the selective fields like pernr, company code, benefit plan in a Z-table
Here when I want to display records of selected benefit plans by using the field bplan. here when I go to that bplan field and press f4 then gives me a list of benefit plans, from that list I have to select proper benefitplan for selected records of that plan
1. Question:
I have two new plans , can any suggest me how to add in the f4 list of that field. Is it done through any program?
Another issue,
I have a report program, when I execute it gives me selected list fields like pernr, date, and some more fields. if you select some fields with the help of f4 , we can choose correct value,
2 Question,
I have two new parameters to be added in the f4 list of the fields in the Needed very urgent?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi
You can create a search for that field with more than one fields and yu can add the search help for that field
see the doc
1) Elementary search helps describe a search path. The elementary search help must define where the data of the hit list should be read from (selection method), how the exchange of values between the screen template and selection method is implemented (interface of the search help) and how the online input help should be defined (online behavior of the search help).
2) Collective search helps combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.
3)An elementary search help defines the standard flow of an input help.
4) A collective search help combines several elementary search helps. The user can thus choose one of several alternative search paths with a collective search help.
5)A collective search help comprises several elementary search helps. It combines all the search paths that are meaningful for a field.
6)Both elementary search helps and other search helps can be included in a collective search help. If other collective search helps are contained in a collective search help, they are expanded to the level of the elementary search helps when the input help is called.
CREATION:
Go to SE11 Tcode
select search help
give the 'z' search help name and create
select the selection method ur table name eg : 'mara'
dialog module 'display value immediately'.
add the field whatever u want and lpos = 1 and spos = 1 and check import and export parameter.
where left position when displaying and spos = search position
and then save and activate ..

Limit list of values in variable selection screen

Hi
Apologies if this has been asked / answered elsewhere, but I thought I would put it out there, at least while I continue trying to find a solution.
We have a requirement to limit the data from which a user is allowed to select values in the variable selection screen. I know how to write the ABAP code that will return the list of data from which the user can choose, but not sure how to implement that in the query variable.
Essentially, the BEx query needs an input on username, and the current user should be able to choose from a list of usernames. That list of usernames should only be usernames to which the current user has access.
Don't worry about the linking of current user to user names, that is taken care of in our DSO.
What I am after, is limiting the data that comes back when the "F4 Help" type button is pressed on the variable screen.
I can default a value in the customer exit variable using ABAP code in the i_step = 1 loop, but that doesn't seem to effect the list of data available for selection.
Any decent ideas?
Cheers,
Andrew

Hi Andrew,
As charlie suggested go for Analysis authorization that is the simplest approach to restrict values for any object, in another way you can use following BADI for value restriction using ABAP code, refer the below link.
[http://www.consolut.com/en/s/sap-ides-access/d/s/doc/YY-BW_BADI_F4]
By using customer exit you can only populate default values but you will not be able to restrict F4 help values.

Durgesh.

Return Value of a Select List with Submit

I have a Select List with Submit (P8_COLOR) which I want to use to filter the data in my report.
P8_COLOR has 3 static values ALL, RGB, BYP that return ALL,RGB and BYP.
When the page is submitted, my SQL Query (PL SQL function body returning SQL Query) does not recognize the return value. I can assign the return value to a different textfield and can see the correct value being assigned.
My PL SQL looks like below...
IF :P8_COLOR = 'RGB' THEN
q := q || ' AND COLOR_ID in (1,2,3)
END IF;
I am not a PL SQL expert and wonder whether the IF condition is correct. Would appreciate any help with this.
Thanks,
Ghazi

Thanks Jes. That worked.
Would you know why :P8_COLOR didn't work? What is the difference between using :P8_COLOR and v('P8_COLOR')? I am using :P8_XXXX for another Select List that only checks for null and that works. The one where I am checking for the return value doesn't work.
Thanks again.

Is it possible to select multiple values from an enumerated list?

I have a Category with an Attribute defined as an enumerated list. Is it possible to select more than one value from the enumerated list? If not, does anyone have a recommended approach for configuring Categories or Attributes that often have more than one of the Attribute values selected? Do I just use multiple Categories and/or Attributes with the same enumerated list? If so, is there an efficient way (API, maybe) to copy the enumerated list values from one Attribute to a new one (or one Category to another)?
Thanks for any ideas!
~Mark

Boy, this is something we're struggling with too. So we'd like to hear others' ideas on this also.
thank you,

Set Default Value of Multi-select list item

I have a multi-select list item I want to default the value of to '%' (which is really '%null%') and have it selected. I tried setting default value of item, but it doesn't take '%null%'. I also tried a computation with a static of
:P507_ITEM := '%null%'; How do you get the default value set and selected?

Hi
Shijesh is right, you need to change your null return value and use that return value as your default. Try and use something of the same datatype as your real return values if you plan to use '%' to display all as it will make your queries simpler. eg.
Company A returns 1
Company B return 2
% returns 0
Then your query would be...
SELECT ...
FROM ...
WHERE company_id = DECODE(:P_COMPANY,1,1,2,2,0,company_id)
Hope this makes sense.
Cheers
