Trying to use Dynamic Action with button - no #BUTTON_ID#

I saw this post: Issue with apex dynamic action
and I'm having exactly the same issue. I'm using the Blue and Tan Theme and the button's "normal template" looks like the following:
<table class="t2Button" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" summary="">
<tr>
<td class="t2L"><a href="#LINK#"><img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#themes/theme_2/button_left.gif" alt="" /></a></td>
<td class="t2C"><a href="#LINK#">#LABEL#</a></td>
<td class="t2R"><a href="#LINK#"><img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#themes/theme_2/button_right.gif" alt="" /></a></td>
</tr>
</table>Can someone help me get the #BUTTON_ID# tag in the correct spot?
(PS. This application was originally built using APEX 3.2 and upgraded to 4.1. Don't know if that matters or not.)

The button calls a procedure which can take several minutes to complete. It calculates and stores values for display. I'd like to open up a modal window so that the user has more concrete feedback that the calculation process is underway. I'd also like to tie it to the refresh of a particular region on the page that shows a list of the stored calculations.

Using Dynamic Visibility with Accordian Menu

Hiya. I am trying to use dynamic visibility with an accordian menu. My menu categories are years, 2005 - 2010. My categories items are key performance indicators such as abandon percentage, first call resolution, customer satisfaction percentage, call volume and average speed of answer.
Of my 6 KPIs, 4 display as percentages and 2 display as whole numbers. When the percentage graphs are displayed the axis labels needs to be percentages. When the whole number graphs are displayed the axis label needs to show whole numbers.
I thought to achieve this I should use dynamic visibility with two different line charts where one line chart shows percentages and the other line chart shows whole numbers. However I am strugging trying to make that happen.
Is my concept correct, or is there an easier way to accomplish this? If my concept is correct,can someone give me some advice on how to make dynamic visibility display the correct chart depending on which KPI I select from my accordian menu?
Thanks!

Hi
You can achieveby doing following steps..
Insert your categories into D3 and label bind to E3.
take two charts and bind to the destination data of Accordion menu
then write a formula in F3 like this =IF(OR(E3="abandon percentage",E3="customer satisfaction percentage"),1,0)
and bind your two charts to the F3 and set DV for % charts as 1 and # charts as 0.
I hope this will helps you
Thanks,

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

Dynamic action with set value on date field

Hi,
I'm using APEX 4.02
I'm trying to calculate the age based on the date of birth dynamically on a form. I'm trying to do this with a (advanced)dynamic action with set value.
I'm able to get this kind of action working based on a number field etc, but NEVER on a date field.
I've read all posts on this subject but so far no solution. Even if I try to simply copy the value over to another date field or typecast it to a string ( to_char function ) it does not work. So for me the problem seems to be in the source field being a date field.
I've tried using the source value as is in a select statement :
select :P33_GEBOORTEDATUM from dual;
and also type casted based on the date format :
select TO_DATE(:P33_GEBOORTEDATUM,'DD-MON-YYYY') from dual
but still no luck.
On the same form I don't have any issues as long as the calculation is based on number fields, but as soon as I start using dates all goes wrong.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. If you need any extra info just let me know.
Cheers
Bas
b.t.w My application default date format is DD-MON-YYYY, maybe this has something to do with the issue .... ?

Hi,
Create a dynamic action named "set age" with following values.
Event: Change
Selection Type: Item(s)
Item(s): P1_DATE_OF_BIRTH
Action: Set value
Fire on page load: TRUE
Set Type: PL/SQL Expression
PL/SQL Expression: ROUND( (SYSDATE - :P1_DATE_OF_BIRTH)/365.24,0)
Page items to submit: P1_DATE_OF_BIRTH
Selection Type: Item(s)
Item(s): P1_AGE

How to clear grey loading screen and animated gif (Dynamic Action with "Show Processing" on submit)

APEX V4.2.3
DB 11.2
I have a classic report on page 1. I have a region button called "Export" (defined by a submit dynamic action with "show processing=Yes") that submits the page and then via a branch directs me to page 2 which has a slightly different version of the report on page 1 (i.e. no breaks) which I want to capture as a CSV export. Therefore I've set the report template on page 2 to " Export:CSV".
Now when I click on the page 1 export button the grey screen and loading gif appears indicating that the report is executing and then as expected, page 2 doesn't appear but instead the standard open/save window's dialog box appears asking to open or save the generated CSV file. All good..but the grey loading screen remains. How do I clear this loading screen and get back to the context of page 1 ?
thanks in advance
PaulP

Hi PPlatt,
We would love to help but you left out one crucial part of the puzzle: namely how does your CSV report get exported. With the way it is setup (a redirect to another page), I'm going to assume you do that because you have some PL/SQL on that page that prints the CSV.
Now there are two questions that are crucial here:
- How do we stop the icon from bugging us on the screen
- How do we communicate with the browser that it should no longer display the loading icon
The first question is rather easy, two simply lines of codes can do that:
$('#apex_wait_popup').hide();
$('#apex_wait_overlay').hide();
But when do we use this code? Quite simple when the document is downloaded. When is it downloaded? At the end of the PL/SQL code that prints the document to the browser.
What you could do is at the end of that code give an application item a certain value. For example :AI_PRINTED := 'Y';
Then all you need to do is let the browser ask for the value. You could do this by using JavaScript to continuously fire AJAX to the server using a JS timing event:
http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_timing.asp
Better would be a Server send event, but since you left out another crucial piece of information: your browser, I will not go deeper into this.
Start this timing event when someone asks for the document, and end it as soon as the process returns that :AI_PRINTED equals 'Y'.
Despite the lack of information, I hope I have given, or at least inspired you to get to the solution.

Joni

Dynamic actions on button and dynamic column name

Hi!ynam
I want to create a dynamic action on button click in my tabular form.
I have a select list with values of my column names (P7_X_COLUMN) and a text field where users input values for update (P7_X_UVALUE).
My idea is that when they click the button, they update selected column to desired value in all rows.
However, I get the following error:
ORA-06550: line 5, column 5: PL/SQL: ORA-01747: invalid user.table.column, table.column, or column specification ORA-06550: line 4, column 1: PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored (Go to error)
It seems to me that I have not referenced the column name correctly, I thought it was the same as referencing values. How do I do that?
This is my code:
begin
update "#OWNER#"."IZV_SLOG_DET"
set :P7_X_COLUMN=:P7_X_UVALUE;
end;
Regards,
Ivan

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?
Thanks

Firstly, 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.

Now it works
i will try to explain how i do this :
step 1 )
fallow this guide http://www.cit.cornell.edu/computer/system/win2000/kerberos/
and configure AD to use kerberos and to heve Kerberos REALM
step 2 ) try windows login to the new realm to be sure that it works ADD trusted realm if needed.
step 3 ) create jaas.conf file for example in c:\
it looks like this :
ISY {
     com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule required
debug=true;
};step 4)
( dont forget to make mappings which are explained in step 1 ) go to Active Directory users make sure from View to check Advanced Features Right click on the user go to mappings in secound tab kerberos mapping add USERNAME@KERBEROSreaLm for example [email protected]
step 5)
copy+paste this code and HIT RUN :)

}It will ask for username and password
type for example : [email protected] for username
and password : TheSecretPassword
where ISY.LOCAL is the name of kerberos realm.
p.s. it is not good idea to use Administrator as login :)

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
Niranjan

Hi,
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,
SK

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 4.2

I 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!

Dynamic Actions with Multiple Actions Capability

Dynamic Actions with Multiple Actions Capability
How can I get Dynamic Actions to work on Actions that are stored solely on IT0302 due to the multiple relationship to a previous Action that is stored on both IT0302 and IT0000?
When multiple actions on a given day are executed, the dynamic action from the first action entered is executed twice - when it should only execute the first time with the second actions dynamic action triggering the second time.
Thanks

When there are multiple actions with the same effective date the wrong dynamic action is triggered. For example, if I have an Expat Return To Home action followed by an Internal Move action with the same effective date the below events occur:
1. IT0001 is updated due to Expat Return to Home - triggering the Dynamic Action off of IT0000 which is Expat Return to Home (Correct)
- Action is stored on IT0000 and IT0302
2. IT0001 is updated due to Internal Move - triggering the Dynamic Action off of IT0000 which is Expat Return to Home (Incorrect - background processing creates data not needed)
- Action is stored only on IT0302
Question:
How can we leverage Multiple Actions with the same effective date while continuing to use Dynamic Actions?

List of values failure error when trying to use dynamic data values

Hi there,
I have a user who is experiencing problems when trying to use dynamic values in a report. Whenever he tries to insert dynamic parameters he gets the following error message:
Prompting failed with the following message: 'List of Values failure: Failed to get values. [Cause of error: Access is denied.] Error Source: prompt.dll Error Code: 0x8004380D
He even opened the sample report - prompting.rpt - that is included with CR and gets the same error.
We are using Crystal Reports XI Release 2 ver. 11.5.11.1470.
Any help would be appreciated.

Please excuse my ignorance of the product. I've had this problem dropped in my lap and I know practically nothing about Crystal Reports. In doing some digging it appears to me as if the BusinessObjects Enterprise software may not be installed properly, if at all. In the programs menu under the BusinessObjects XI Release 2 folder I see a BusinessObjects Enterprise folder, but the only icon listed in that folder is Software Inventory Tool.
Is the BusinessObjects Enterprise software a separate install from Crystal Reports or is it bundled together? I talked with the tech that did the install and he said that all he had was the Crystal Reports install media.

Sending mails using dynamic actions

Hi
How we can send mails using dynamic actions.
Regards
Santhosh

Hi,
Sending mails is possible by using the feature M0001. This is to be coded in the dynamic action depending on the requirement with function code "M".
Hope this would help you to explore further. Incase of any specific query you can post back.

I am trying to use apple configurator with ipads. I have been successful with all our ipads but 1. It will not allow me to add apps. The error I get is that it is refreshed but with errors e

I am trying to use apple configurator with ipads. I have been successful with preparing and supervising all ipads but one. When preparing it in configurator, I receive an error that it is refreshed but with an error. Under supervise, I am not able to add apps. I have erased all content to start over but this does not work either

Are you trying to restore a backup, or just sync some apps? Do you have profiles installed on the device?
Have you plugged the ipad into iTunes, and did a fresh install? I'm assuming the device went through the prepare setup properly. You many have to unsupervise it first, then plug it into iTunes to wipe it completely.
I'd then do each step seperately. Prepare it, then install 1 app, if that works, try another app, then maybe a profile.
