Updateable Report Question (or strange behaviour)

Hey,
I have a problem with an updateable report, my query is:
SELECT
"DOSSIER_ID",
"DOSSIER_ID" DOSSIER_ID_DISPLAY,
"REFNR",
"NAME",
"REMARK"
FROM dossiers &P405_WHERE.
ORDER BY refnr DESC
I want to build my where clause with a process thats why I use the &P405_WHERE.
When I try to save this query in my updateable report I get the next error message:
ORA-20001: Updatable report parse error: ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended
Error processing region columns.
I also tried with parse query at runtime but that didn't work either. When I leave out the &P405_WHERE. then there is no problem.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong or is there a workaround for this?
Kind regards,
Oli

Hi,Oli
You cannot use your updatable report like this :
You have to use SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query)
like this
declare q varchar2(1000);
begin
q:='SELECT
"DOSSIER_ID",
"DOSSIER_ID" DOSSIER_ID_DISPLAY,
"REFNR",
"NAME",
"REMARK"
FROM dossiers '||:P405_WHERE||' ORDER BY refnr DESC';
return q;
end;
And make your report updatable ...

    Updateable Report Question.
    Currently I am developing an XE application, so I think that is apex 2.0.
    Here is an example of what I wish to achieve.
    Suppose I have an emp table with columns
    dept, id, name and comment.
    I create an SQL report as
    SELECT * from emp;
    I only wish to see the name and comment columns, so in the report attributes I un-tick show the columns dept and id.
    I want the user to be able to update the comment column, So I edit the comment column and in “Tabular Form Element” I change the “Display As” from “Standard Report Column” to “Text Field”
    This now lets me edit the data in the column in the report.
    Now want to add in an on change event to call a javascript routine that will use ajax to do the actual update.
    My problem is that I need to pass in the “hidden” dept and id column values as well as the modified text, thus
    In “Tabular Form Element” – “Element Attributes” add in
    onchange="updateRemarks(#DEPT#, #ID#, this.value)"
    Unfortunately this does not work, apex does not expand the #DEPT# & #ID#, and just passes in the literal text.
    So how can I achieve this?
    Thanks,
    GP>

    The columns and rows have a set format for the Id, so if you know one Id you know the row and the ids of all the other columns.
    As an example, this will show the value of column 6 when you click on any column with the function call in the Element Attributes:
    Script:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function showCol6(col){
      var col6 = document.getElementById("f06_" + col.id.substr(4,4));
      alert(col6.value);
    </script>Element Attributes:
    onclick=showCol6(this);You could also use a Named Column template, specific to this region, to include the column values directly in the function call, but I think it's best to stick with the ApEx defaults if possible.

  • Updateable Report : re-display collection & Update Button question

    This a sequel to a previous Updateable Report question I had.
    Varad pointed me to this doc which has been incredibly helpful .
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/
    howtos/tabular_form.html#RESTRICTIONS
    I was\am having the following issue :
    Let's zoom to the part where we create a region to display the tabular form for the previously saved collection , and drill down to the part where we create an UPDATE EMP button for that displayed collection :
    I was not able to display the collection again when I failed the validation a 2nd time. ie, clicking on the UPDATE EMP button after it displays both the errors-post validation and after displaying the collection ( of course) would return me to the previous report pre-collection creation. When I turned debug on I found out that it was not even creating the collection and was hence deleting it before displaying the subsequent page.
    So what I did differently from what the documention instructs is as follows :
    I removed the page reference on the 'branch to page' of the UPDATE EMP button. In my case, the default 'Branch to ' Page after Processing is the same page I am using for this part of the application.
    So when I remove the reference to the page number. for that button, the page is then able to re-create the collection and hence re-display the collection so I can re-fix the 2nd error ( ... and 3rd) and finally update the report .
    Just wondering if anyone else has had the same experience ?
    Thanks !

    The columns and rows have a set format for the Id, so if you know one Id you know the row and the ids of all the other columns.

  • Strange behaviour on question slides with a countdown timer!

    Hello Captivators,
    I am facing a strange behaviour on question slides with a countdown timer. Whenever I place a countdown timer on a question slide, one of the options/answers disappear. What is going wrong here? Am I missing anythig in the settings?
    I am using Captivate 8 (Trial Version).
    Thank you for your support in advance.
    Greetings

    Sorry for the double question. However, I see that there are 10 Captivate communities and I thought I can post my question in one or some of them. Anyway, I know now that it is "Not very friendly" to do that. Sorry again!

  • Strange Behaviour into Runtime Workbench

    Hi all,
    I have a question for us.
    Into our system PI 7.1 we have a strange behaviour in Runtime Workbench - Message Monitoring.
    When I choose for the fiel "FROM" the value "Database" I obtain the list of software component that I find the value "Integration Server".
    But when I choose the value "Database (Overview)" the value "Integration Server" into list of software component doesn't exist.
    Why Do the system have this behaviour?
    best regards,
    Davide Bruno

    Hey,
           The old way of seeing msg use - the db option... In Pi 71 the db overiew options gives you an aggregated view of ur messages. this is very helpful in tracking repeated failures, anylysing the types of failures etc...The "strange" view is actually a pretty neat tool... We used to do this in excel sheets after dowloading the  report from sxmb_moni..

  • APEX Listener and EPG - strange behaviour

    Hi
    For some years, I've used EPG for APEX but have struggled with performance particularly as I can have up to 150 student developers using at any one time.
    I do a fair amount of work using ORDImage and have successfully developed APEX applications to upload image files and display full-size and thumbnail images.
    After upgrading to APEX 4.1 (from 4.0), I decided to install APEX Listener standalone.
    Before I did so I checked that my applications still worked in 4.1 and they did.
    However, just installing APEX Listener but not configuring it (yet) has meant that my image display in a report using a procedure based on wpg_docload.download_file( l_ordimage_image.source.localData ) no longer works in EPG - the images are not displayed.
    Configuring APEX Listener and running the same application through that DOES display the images.
    So this part of the application works under APEX Listener but not under EPG.
    My application also allows users to upload images from APEX_APPLICATION_FILES using standard code. Under APEX Listener after uploading, I'm left with a blank page with a wwv_flow.accept URL although the image does indeed upload. Under EPG it works as expected and I get a success confirmation.
    So this part of the application works under EPG but not under APEX Listener.
    Has anyone else come across different behaviour depending on the mode of connection?
    Thanks

    [Oracle EE 11gR2, Windows Server 2008R2, APEX 4.1, APEX Listener 1.1.3]

    Hi Brian,
    it sounds like you have both EPG and APEX Listener running on the same machine, so your problem might result from a port conflict. Note that both services use TCP port 8080 as default.
    At least a port conflict would explain the strange behaviour in your case, some things working on one web server and some on the other.
    Some parts of your initial post hint to that direction, e.g.
    However, just installing APEX Listener but not configuring it (yet) has meant that my image display in a report using a procedure based on >wpg_docload.download_file( l_ordimage_image.source.localData ) no longer works in EPG - the images are not displayed.... because the APEX Listener only interfere with the EPG if it is at least running on the same machine as your database and furthermore, if it is unconfigured in terms of ist database connection, a port conflict might be the only way it could cause anything like that.
    However, if you are sure that's not the issue, please check if you see any error in the APEX Listener's log for the following action you performed:
    My application also allows users to upload images from APEX_APPLICATION_FILES using standard code. Under APEX Listener after uploading, I'm left with a blank >page with a wwv_flow.accept URL although the image does indeed uploadIf you actually see just a blank screen, something very bad must have happened and you should see some kind of stack trace there.
    For further investigations, if necessary, it would be helpful to know how you deployed or started your APEX Listener and which JDK version you use.
    For the moment, I still think the port conflict is my best guess.
    You could avoid it by either changing the port for EPG (I'd not recommend that if you have other users still using it) or by changing the port for your APEX Listener.

  • Update Field On Change For A SQL Query (updateable report)

    Hi,
    I'd like to request help from anyone with ideas on how to solve this.
    We are using APEX 4.2, 10GR2, RedHat5.
    I have a report that comes from SQL Query (updateable report).
    I'm using the apex_item.text and apex_item.hidden on fields.
    I'm using a button to submit and after submit process to add some logic that I need.
    There could be 1 - 10 records in the report.
    There is only 1 field that is needed to enter a value, but the value of this field determines the value of another field.
    I think that I can do this with a submit button and an after submit process where I loop through all the records. I think I have this handled.
    This is the question
    When the value of that field is changed then the value of another field in the same row changes immediately.
    Is this possible?
    All the examples I've seen so far are for a single record and that doesn't work for us.
    I guess this is a MRU process but I haven't seen an example where a dynamic action is possible on a Multi Row Update.
    Could anyone direct me to where I can see an example or help me get directions?
    I appreciate all your help an comments and I thank you in advance.

    Yes why not...what you looking for is a ajax call
    See {message:id=10390979}
    Please note:-you can also do this as a dynamic action as shown below
    Event: Change
    Selection type: jQuery Selector
    jQuery Selector: input[name="f01"]
    True action with Execute JavaScript Code and put all code inside the test funtion, you may need to amend the code to use this.triggeringElemnt in place of this

  • Windows 8.1 Enterprise Evaluation- Strange behaviour of network adapter

    Hello there are discussions and questions around this community about network adapter dropping connection while system is running. But I have found unique problem with my network adapter driver.
    I have tried to state my problem as clearly as possible. Please ask if any detail is required.
    My network status shows no access on following occasions:
    1. On alternate system wakeups.
        eg:  
    a. System boots up 
    Internet accessible
    no problem
    b. I put system to sleep(first time) and wake it up
    No access to internet !!!
    When I check in network and sharing center not even adapter shows in disabled status.(See video from the link given below).
    c. Without restarting system or without installing network adapter again,  I put system to sleep again and wake it up (2nd time).
    Internet accessible
    d. I put system to sleep for (3rd time) and wakes it up.
    No access to internet!!
    If I put system to sleep again and wake it up definitly I get network access.
    2. If I switch off the modem before windows shutdown completely or in the process of shutdown, next time when I boot system, even though the modem is switched on before booting the system, No internet access tooltip will be shown on network
    sysbol.
    Another strange behaviour is on no internet access status, I start installing adapter, and it loads required files and prompt me to click "next" and "click" install.
    But the thing is before I go to "next" button, I will get network access as shown in this link
    http://youtu.be/sPlXVEiYBeo. Ignore virtualbox adapter. Same behaviour was there when there is no vbox adapter. Same was happening in Windows 8 Pro, but not in windows 7, so that there is no H/W problem I think. 
    Any idea on how to fix this or any alternate solution ? 

    Hi,
    Firstly, access your network adapter official website to get the proper driver applied to your system.
    Then going to Control Panel > Device Manager, right click your adapter > Properties. Under the Power Management tab, make sure "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" checkbox unchecked.
    If it still persists, try to disable "fast startup" as below steps:
    1.In Control Panel, open the Power Options item.
    2.Click the Choose what the power buttons do link.
    3.Clear the Turn on fast startup (recommended) check box.
    4.Click Save Settings.

  • Strange behaviour from new 2012R2 in old domain

    Hi all,
    At work (education level), I'm starting to take charge of windows admin, so beiing a noob admin I'm finding strange behaviours that I hope you can help me solve them all :-)
    We've one (big) domain with about 5000 computers (workers and students all together), and around 50000 users (again, workers and students all together) setup like this:
    DC-DOMAIN-1:
    Windows Server 2008R2
    Shares NETLOGON and SYSVOL
    DC-DOMAIN-2:
    Windows Server 2003 R2 x64
    Shares CertEnroll, NETLOGON, SMSLOGON, SYSVOL
    Checking RootDSE, I see 'domainControllerFunctionaly is Windows 2003' (DC-DOMAIN-2)
    So, with this setup, I've noticed these strange behaviours, hope list isn't too big  (guess there will be more behaviours but these seemed too odd):
    1) On DC-DOMAIN-2, WinServer 2003 eventlog, inside 'Directory Service', I found this warning event ID 1083 (Source NTDS Replication):
    Active Directory could not update the following object with changes received from the domain controller at the following network address because Active Directory was busy processing information.
    Object:CN=<an user name>, CN=Users, DC=DOMAIN
    Usually followed by an information event (eventid 1955) which says:
    ctive Directory encountered a write conflict when applying replicated changes to the following object.
    Object:
    <SAME USER OBJECT THAN PREVIOUS EVENT ID>
    Time in seconds:
    0
    Event log entries preceding this entry will indicate whether or not the update was accepted.
    A write conflict can be caused by simultaneous changes to the same object or simultaneous changes to other objects that have attributes referencing this object. This commonly occurs when the object represents a large group with many members, and the functional level of the forest is set to Windows 2000. This conflict triggered additional retries of the update. If the system appears slow, it could be because replication of these changes is occurring.
    User Action
    Use smaller groups for this operation or raise the functional level to Windows Server 2003.
    And having as result that user being blocked in domain.
    2) I've added a new print server based on Windows Server 2012R2 (running inside an updated ESX 5.5 with VMXNET3 ethernet adapter as recommended by vmware), and seen in the event viewer these warnings/errors:
    At System log:
    Error Event ID 5783, Source NETLOGON:
    The session setup to the Windows NT or Windows 2000 Domain Controller \\DC-DOMAIN-2.fulldns.name for the domain DOMAIN is not responsive. The current RPC call from Netlogon on \\PRINTSERVER to \\DC-DOMAIN-2.fulldns.name has been cancelled.
    I've seen Event ID 5783 with DC-DOMAIN-1 too....
    Error Event ID 5719, Source NETLOGON:
    This computer was not able to set up a secure session with a domain controller in domain DOMAIN due to the following:
    The remote procedure call failed and did not execute.
    This may lead to authentication problems. Make sure that
    this computer is connected to the network. If the problem persists, please contact your domain administrator.
    ADDITIONAL INFO:
    If this computer is a domain controller for the specified domain, it sets up the secure session to the primary domain controller emulator in the specified domain. Otherwise, this computer sets up the secure session to any domain controller in the specified domain.
    At Microsoft-Windows-TerminalServices-RemoteConnectinoManager/Admin found also this warning:
    Warning Event ID 20499 Source TerminalServices-RemoteConnectionManager:
    Remote Desktop Services has taken too long to load the user configuration from server \\DC-DOMAIN-2.fulldns.name for user administrator
    3) If I try Group Policy Modeling on DC-DOMAIN-1 (server 2008R2), everything works fine, no matter if I try it against DC-DOMAIN-1 or DC-DOMAIN-2, but if I try this from the Server 2012R2 (the one from point 2), I get this:
    Simulation against DC-DOMAIN-2: Gets executed, but all GPO show as inaccessible, empty or disabled.
    Simulation against DC-DOMAIN-1: Sometimes it gets executed as DC-DOMAIN-2, sometimes I get an error saying query can't be executed.
    4) From server 2012R2, I usually manage printing GPO. If I click on the domain root (GPMC, forest, Domains, DOMAIN-NAME-ROOT) right pane, I get a pop up saying: 
    'A processing error ocurred collecting data using this base domain controller. Please change the base domain controller and try again'
    After closing popup, right pane says something like 'DC-DOMAIN-2.fulldns.name' is the baseline domain controller for this domain.
    No infrastructure Status information exists for this domain.
    Click the Detect Now button below to gather infrastructure status from all of the domain controllers in this domain.
    Pressing 'Detect Now' does nothing, and trying to select New Baseline DC shows again same pop up than before.
    5) Last, but not least, I've feeling that GPO takes too much to apply. I've found scenarios in which even after executing 'gpupdate /force' correctly on client computer either local or domain admin, I can't see the new changes (gpresult says it has been
    updated though). But couldn't find anything on eventlog that informs about problems with GPOs...
    For all these strange behaviours I've noticed in last month that I started checking things as sys admin, I believe domain is damaged, or something is wrong there (not just my new server 2012R2, even if it's running inside an ESX, blehh), so please, any hint
    on what to check, what to change, what to fix, would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Paul,
    Honestly, I'm still trying to figure out all broken things reported by tests :( Guess Jesper's suggestion about adding a new 2008 DC to get rid of 2003 and start checking again after that may be best option.
    I'll try to summarize list of things I believe are wrong:
    running
    DCDIAG /V /C /D /E /s:yourdcname > c:\dcdiag.log  for every DC, shows different errors. They show things such as:
    another domain running here (not administered by us, only relationship is that our users are shared with that domain, nothing else) appear when Printing out pDsInfo (as if they were DC of our domain too, but they do not even share RootDomain). Guess it
    may be for a bug old sys admin had when clonning from his 2008R2 template, that forgot to change SID... I already noticed 1 year ago our print server shared SID with those DC, guess there may be more servers sharing SID too :-(
    Within Starting test: Replications, I see few messages at Replication Latency Check, such as the one for CN=Schema, CN=Configuration, DC=<ourdomain>: 
    Latency information for 35 entries in the vector were ignored.
                      35 were retired Invocations.  0 were either: read-only replicas and are not verifiably latent, or dc's no longer replicating this nc.  0 had no latency information (Win2K DC)
    On Services test, I see an 
       Invalid service type: RpcSs on DC-DOMAIN-3, current value
                WIN32_OWN_PROCESS, expected value WIN32_SHARE_PROCESS
    On SystemLog, I see LOTS of warnings/errors such as:
    A warning event occurred.  EventID: 0x80000002
                Time Generated: 07/28/2014   08:21:54
                (Event String (event log = System) could not be retrieved, error
                0x503)
             An error event occurred.  EventID: 0xC0000003
                Time Generated: 07/28/2014   08:22:18
                (Event String (event log = System) could not be retrieved, error
                0x3afc)
    Missing entries on DNS (we've a static DNS)
    netdiag.exe /v > c:\netdiag.log Showed again DNS problems such as our primary DNS pointing to all DC, secondary
    DNS pointing just to DC with FSMO roles,...
    repadmin.exe /showrepl * /verbose /all /intersite > c:\repl.txt  Gave no errors, now I must check in detail
    if every replica is correct
    And finally,
    dnslint /ad /s "ip address of your dc"  gave more DNS problems:
    One or more DNS servers may not be authoritative for the domain
    One or more DNS servers did not respond to UDP queries
    One or more zone files may have expired
    SOA record data was unavailable and/or missing on one or more DNS servers
    Sumarizing, guess it will be better to fix DNS problems, promote new 2008R2 DC to get rid of 2003 one, promote domain to 2008 too, check again for messages and relationship with other domain, and then come back here for support if needed 
    EDIT: Almost forgot to talk about SYSVOL folder. As said before, there are 426 GPO folders inside Policies. Of them, 375 have an inetres.adm files in it (smallest one 1398 KB, almost all of them 2307 or 2707 kb).... 

  • Strange behaviour with Safari.

    Very strange behaviour with Safari this morning.   Pages loading piecemeal or partially.   The content only becomes viewable after the cursor has passed over the area.   Have cleared caches and reported it but I'm wondering if this is a local matter here in the UK.   Anyone suffering similar problems?    Firefox is responding perfectly normally.

    I see a reply has come back via a previous post.   As I am trying to get a response to this one I shan't reply there but I should point out that for me, this is an isolated problem.   I do use open DNS but with no track history of problems there , I can't blame that.
    In the last few minutes normality has returned.

  • Strange behaviour on text insert into a HTML pane

    Hi all,
    I am trying to fix a problem on inserting a span tag into an existing html page (in an EDITABLE JEditorPane).
    The behaviour:
    Assuming the cells in a table (3 rows, 2 columns) are numbered from 1 to 6, with cell one being the top left most, cell 2 top right, cell 3 middle left, etc.
    1. Inserting the text "<span></span>" in cell 4 causes during any attempt to later type into cell 5 the characters to be appended instead into cell 4, directly after the close span tag.
    2. The insertion in the first place behaves strange. If I have the caret positioned for cell 5 so that I can insert there
    (via the function void javax.swing.text.html.HTMLEditorKit.insertHTML(HTML Document doc, int offset, String html, int popDepth, int pushDepth, Tag insertTag) )
    even though the caret position is visible in cell 5, the insertion seems to take place in cell 4.
    I can sort of compensate for this by adding 1 to the offset. However, then when inserting into a line of text, for example, "the quick red fox jumped over the lazy dog"
    I insert directly before the 'j' in 'jumped', the insertion looks like this "the quick red fox j<span>..</span>umped over the lazy dog"
    So that is no solution.
    IMPORTANT! Just to prove it is not the span tag causing the trouble, if this span tag already exists in a cell on 'Load' of the html file, the strange behaviour is not observed.
    Something is going wrong here. It is me? Or is it a bug?
    Please help!!
    Here is a test app, and the test html you can use (place in current directory).
    Please test like this:
    1. run application (the html should be loaded into the pane)
    2. the span tag is programmed to automatically insert at cell 4 (by using the +1 method on the insert)
    3. another span tag was already existing in the html file, at cell 8
    4. Attempt to type into cell 5
    result: the text appears instead at cell 4
    5. Type into cell 9
    result: the text correctly is entered into cell 9
    See the difference!!

    fix another stuffed up attempt at a SSCCE.

    Well, I know nothing about HTML in JEditorPanes. I have never been able to figure out how insertions work.
    My comment was a warning to others. Some people (like me) avoid answering posting of this type for reasons given in the JavaRanch link. Others will answer anyway. Other might first check the other site to see if they are wasting there time, but they can only do that if a link was posted with the original question.
    The only suggestion I have is to repost the question, (since this posting is now completely off topic) making sure to then respond to this posting stating that a fresh question has been asked so you don't get a discussion going on in two places.

  • Strange behaviour when placing text frame on top of image

    Hi,
    Win XP, FM 8.04
    I have a front cover that consists of a TIF image that bleeds off the page. On top of that image I want to put a text frame with the book title.
    The strange thing is that when I create the text frame and use the toolbar buttons to nudge it down on the page, the text (but not the frame) suddenly jumps to a totally different place way down on the page, despite only nudging it, say, 10 mm.
    Any ideas why this is happening?
    /Mats

    Hi,
    Partly solved:
    After some tests, it seems FM does not like when you try to move a text frame over a transparent area in an image. The image in question was made by importing a PDF into Photoshop, then saving as TIF. Since the PDF contained an area that was had full transparency in InDesign (i.e. "Paper"), that area was also in the TIF image.
    The strange behaviour starts exactly at the border where the transparency starts. In non-transparent areas, there is no problem.
    Seems like a bug.

  • Where clause in sql query for updateable report

    Why is the following not working as source for an updateable report ?
    select customer_name from temp_customers
    where customer_type = :my_field;
    How can I make a filter for an updateable report that is based on a field on my page ?
    Greetings Bernd

    Howard,
    The htmldb_item API package allows you to display column values in a report as HTML form fields. You have a choice of different types of form fields. In your example for instance you get a select list by using the function select_list_from_lov. But by simply placing form fields in an HTML page, you don't specify that those fields are actually supposed to update data in a database. You need an after submit process that is actually performing the update.
    You can implement this type of process manually using your own PL/SQL code. Or you can have HTML DB do this for you. If for example you were using the tabular form wizard, you would get an updateable report, including the update process and even including checksum functionality to make sure that you don't overwrite another person's changes (lost update detection).
    If you use the wizard, the report form items use the build-in display types. This means you don't have to do your own calls to htmldb_item as part of your query. It is generally advisable to use the build-in types as they are easier to work with and are only rendered for the rows actually shown as opposed to be rendered for the entire result set.
    If you do choose to use htmldb_item, you'll have to code your own PL/SQL code to perform the updates and you should also include some logic for lost update detection. The HTML DB documentation provides information on how to manually process data from tabular forms.
    Hope this clarifies your question about updateable reports,
    Regards,
    Marc

  • Query based LOV in an updateable report

    Hi,
    I have an updateable report which has a select box where the user can select "Item"
    I have another select box in the same report that needs to "update" its values according to the selected item. Is this possible?
    My first thought was to let the second select box be an empty div tag, and then use javascript to build the select. The problem with that is that if I just print a div tag in my select for the report (select '<div></div> from...') then it will not show untill the line has been saved so that is out of the question.. Any suggestions is welcome :)
    Thanks
    Bjarke

    Hi Bjarke,
    Yes it is possible providing the two are linked in some way. I'll explain with the idea that your first LOV is :P1_ITEM and the second is :P1_DETAILS
    *:P1_ITEM query:*
    SELECT DISTINCT ITEM FROM TABLE*:P1_DETAILS query:*
    SELECT DISTINCT  DETAILS FROM TABLE WHERE ITEM = :P1_ITEMYou want an unconditional branch which returns to the current page. Make sure that the "reset pagination" option in this branch is not ticked (i.e. you do not want it to reset as the values will go back to default).
    Your report might then be something like:
    SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE ITEM = :P1_ITEM AND DETAILS = :P1_DETAILSHope this helps.
