URGENT: tabular form based on multiple tables

Hi All,
Its very urgent.......Can anybody tell me how to create a single tabular form to insert/update values from different tables.
I want to create a tabular form with 3 cols. 1st col should be from one table and another two cols from other table.Please help.........
Thank You
Regards,
Vinaya.

You can use iframes in your page: (an iframe is a frame in your page. In this frame you can load another page) that way you can create three pages. The first page is the master page. The second and third page which also have tabular forms, are loaded as iframes in the first page
The iframe is created as follows on your first page:
1.create a html region
2 create the tabular form on the second and third page
3.reference the pages by entereing the following code in the regions that will be used for displaying them:
<iframe name="Your_region_name" id="123" frameborder = "0" src=the page referenced width="580 px" height="250px" scrolling = "auto"></iframe>
for example:
<iframe name="Charge_Region" id="123" frameborder = "0" src="f?p=&APP_ID.:14:&SESSION." width="580 px" height="250px" scrolling = "auto"></iframe>

How to add a new row in Tabular Form based on a table

Hi
I have tabular form based on a table.
I want the table to have an empty row when there is no data
in the table so that I can enter data directly.
But right now whenever the page is launched, its showing a no data found message and I have to press the 'Add Row' button to enter data.
Can anyone help me out on this?
Thanks

Hi Leo
Your suggestion works fine in the APEX 2.1
But in 3.0.1 it gives this error :
Error in add row internal routine: ORA-01476: divisor is equal to zero
Error Unable to add rows.
I am not sure why this happens.

Detail tabular form based on two tables

db11gxe , apex 4.0 , firefox 24 ,
hi all ,
i have a master detail form based on two tables , the detail form ofcourse based on one table , the problem is i want to include a column of another
table into the tabular form , so i have changed the query of the tabular form and included the column in it correctly ,
but the problem is about saving data , i can not save the data , i think
because the "mru" process is based on one table , that is because i face an error talking about "mru" process when i try to save the data ,
Error in mru internal routine: ORA-20001: no data found in tabular form Unable to process update.
so
what should i do to save the data ? should i create another "mru" process based on the other table or what ?
thanks

Anything beyond "simple" requires that you do it yourself. I believe that what you want is "beyond simple"
As far as I know, you can only use the 'mru' on one table.
(I could be wrong)
If the conditions are right, you might be able to simplify things such that you can use the 'mru'.
ie CREATE VIEW on the two tables.
However, you need to understand how Oracle treats DML operations on views, what type of views can be updated, etc., etc.
If just creating the view doesn't work, creating an INSTEAD OF trigger on the view come to mind...
(lol) - at that point, you have already started down the 'dark path' of creating your own 'MRU'
personal note: triggers have a really baaaddd habit of hiding code from other developers. you are better off, in the long run, creating your own 'mru'..
ie a package with procedures to handle INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETES

Tabular forms based on pipelined functions - can it be done?

Hi there,
Pipelined functions are great, specially when you want to encapsulate the access to tables instead of just SELECTing from them (what I am doing a lot in my current project.)
However Apex 4 does not like them, at least not for tabular forms...
I want to handle myself the update/insert/delete process, so I don't need the MRU default functionality (all the access to the data is via APIs). But at the same time I want to just SELECT from my pipelined function and set the item types using the builder interface as with any tabular form (without having to use the apex_item API). Also I want to be able to use tabular form validation.
To start with, you can only create a tabular form based on a table or view. To overcome this issue, I created a dummy view with the fields I wanted and created my tabular form on it. Then I changed the FROM clause to FROM TABLE(myfunction). It didn't work as it seems it tries to select the ROWID for each row... Of course my pipelined function doesn't return one but I don't need one anyway as I will be doing the data manipulation myself based on the PK.
For this to work, I had to create a collection, populate it with the result of the pipelined function in a page process every time the page is loaded, create a view on that collection and base the tabular form on the view... A lot of work and overhead for something that should be very simple in principle.
Then, I found out that if I remove the default MRU process that is automatically created, the tabular form validations stop working (as I posted in another thread). So I have to leave a "dummy" MRU process there with condition = never for it to work.
The application I am working on is all based on API calls and pipelined functions so all this work has to be repeated for each tabular form that is needed.
If it was possible to base a tabular form directly on a pipelined function it would be such an elegant solution.
Is there a better way to implement this? Shouldn't Apex be more compatible with pipelined functions? (at least in regards to tabular forms, they work well with normal forms, reports, LOVs etc)
Thanks
Luis

As I mentioned before, I don't handle inserts (well, I cheat).... On my page, there is a form to set up a request - prompts for a few things, and when submitted, calls a stored procedure:
:P2_REQUEST_RESULT := Simon.Apex_Campus_Guest.Setup_Request(:P2_GROUP_NAME,
       :P2_COAS_ORGN, :P2_START_DATE, :P2_END_DATE, :P2_Quantity, :P2_Generic_Names);
Which creates an APEX collection, which in turn is made visible via a pipelined function turned into a view:
create or replace view Apex_Campus_Guest_Request_va as
select seq_no,
        user_name,
       group_name,
        comments
from table ( Apex_Campus_Guest.Request_Result )
I have a second region which is tabular form on a query - conditional on select 1 from Simon.apex_campus_guest_request_va (the view defined above).
When this submitted, I have standard MRU and MRD processes (Seq_No is the primary key). This then runs into the appropriate trigger - the update trigger is as follows:
trigger Apex_Campus_Guest_Req_Upd
instead of update on Apex_Campus_Guest_Request_va
for each row
declare
        cg_rec campus_guest_maint.rec;
begin
        cg_rec := Campus_Guest_Maint.Request(
                        name => :new.user_name,
                        group_name => :new.group_name,
                        comments => :new.comments);
end;I don't know off hand why it isn't asking for a rowid - but may be that I specified a PKEY column. The insert case fails, as it tries to add a "Returning" statement in the original select. I actually find that annoying as a function is defined to allocate the PKEY from a sequence, so it doesn't need to ask for it that way.

Dynamically change the value of a select list in form based on a table

Hi Friends,
I am using a form based on a table. I want to display two fields as select lists instead of text boxes and when a value
in a select list is selected, the corresponding values will be listed in the next select list. For example if department
value is selected in a select list the employees in that department will be listed in the employee select list. I saw a
metthod using ajax for achieving this in tabular form in Denes's sample application[Click Here| http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:176:462842537250908::NO] .
Is there any way to achieve the same for a form based on a table,
Thanks,
Tj

Hi Andy,
Could you tell me how I could use your example with multiple Application Items?
My page has 3 cascading select lists. The second is dependent on the first and the third is dependent on both the first and second. I thought I would just need to add the second application item as a get, but not sure what the syntax would be. I have troubleshooted to the point where my select list refreshes when I have one in the javascript...just not sure how to add the additional one?
Here's what I have (I have been referencing your 'Get Employees' page)
My Page Items:
P0_VENDOR_ID
P0_VENDOR_SITE_ID
P0_INVENTORY_ITEM_ID
My Application Items:
F_VDR_ID
F_VDR_SITE_ID
My query in the application process has both F_VDR_SITE_ID and F_VDR_ID in it.
My javascript function...this worked OK until I added the additional get.add('F_VDR_SITE_ID')
function getItems(filter, listName)
var xml = null;
var list = document.getElementById(listName);
var listvalue = list.value;
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$v('pFlowId'), 'APPLICATION_PROCESS=Set_Items',4);
get.add('F_VDR_ID', filter.value);
get.add('F_VDR_SITE_ID', filter.value);
ret = get.get('XML');
if(ret)
var s = ret.getElementsByTagName("select");
if(s){
var o = ret.getElementsByTagName("option");
var oCount = o.length;
list.options.length = 0;
for(var i = 0; i < oCount; i++){
var l_Opt_Xml = o;
appendToSelect(list, l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('value'), l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue);
list.value = listvalue;
if (list.selectedIndex == -1)
list.selectedIndex = 0;
get = null;
Thanks,

Problem in tabular form based on dynamic view and pagination

Hi All,
I have a manual tabular form based on a dynamic view. The view fetches the records based on search criteria given by the user in all cases. But this view fetches ALL records when user clicks on pagination, without considering the search criteria. This is the problem I am facing.
I am doing the following:
Since tabular form does not support pl/sql function returning query, I cannot use a table directly. I need my results based on search criteria selected by user. Hence I created a dynamic view and used a "INSTEAD OF UPDATE" trigger to update the table.
I use a set bind variables procedure, on load before header for setting the variables.
This view fetches the correct data based on user search always. It creates a problem only in one situation, when using pagination in the report.
The example can be found at:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=19399:1:
username = [email protected]
pwd = kishore
Here if "manager name" is entered as test, we get 5 records in "Summary of requests" report and 5 records in "Inactive Requests" report. When user clicks on Pagination in any of the reports, ALL the 7 records get fetched in "Summary of Requests" and 6 records in "Inactive Requests". How can I overcome this problem?? The report must consider the search variables even when pagination occurs.
Is this because, the inbuilt "html_PPR_Report_Page" executes the region query once again by considering all search variables as NULL?
Backend Code is at:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/
workspace: sekhar.nooney
Username :[email protected]
pwd: kishore
application id = 19399
My region code is something like:
select *
from regadm_request_v
where access_type = :F110_REGADM
and status <> 'INACTIVE'
order by request_id
My view code is:
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW REGADM_REQUEST_V
AS
SELECT *
FROM REGREGOWNER.REGADM_REQUEST
WHERE upper(employee_name) LIKE '%'||nvl(upper(REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_EMPLOYEE_NAME),'%')||'%'
AND upper(manager_name) LIKE '%'||nvl(upper(REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_MANAGER_NAME),'%')||'%'
AND upper(employee_sunetid) LIKE '%'||nvl(upper(REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_EMPLOYEE_SUNET_ID),'%')||'%'
AND upper(manager_sunetid) LIKE '%'||nvl(upper(REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_MANAGER_SUNET_ID),'%')||'%'
AND upper(request_date) LIKE '%'||nvl(upper(REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_REQUEST_DATE),'%')||'%'
AND upper(USAGE_AGREEMENT_RECVD) LIKE '%'||nvl(upper(DECODE(REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_USAGE_AGREMNT_RECVD,'~!@',NULL,REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_USAGE_AGREMNT_RECVD)),'%')||'%'
AND upper(STATUS) LIKE '%'||nvl(upper(DECODE(REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_STATUS,'~!@',NULL,REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_STATUS)),'%')||'%'
AND upper(REQUEST_APPROVED) LIKE '%'||nvl(upper(DECODE(REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_REQUEST_APPROVED,'~!@',NULL,REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_REQUEST_APPROVED)),'%')||'%'
AND upper(nvl(APPROVAL_DATE,sysdate)) LIKE '%'||nvl(upper(REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_APPROVED_DATE),'%')||'%'
AND upper(APRVL_REQUEST_SENT) LIKE '%'||nvl(upper(DECODE(REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_EMAIL_APPROVERS,'~!@',NULL,REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_EMAIL_APPROVERS)),'%')||'%'
AND upper(NOTIFY_APPROVED) LIKE '%'||nvl(upper(DECODE(REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_APPROVAL_NOTIFICATION,'~!@',NULL,REGADM_REQUEST_PKG.GET_APPROVAL_NOTIFICATION)),'%')||'%'
I would be glad for any suggestions.
Andy/Varad any ideas? You both helped me a lot on my problems for the same application that I had faced before in More Problems in Tabular form - Please give me suggestions.
Thanks,
Sumana

Hi Andy,
The view and the package for setting bind variables work properly in my entire application other than the pagination. A pity that I came across this only now :(
I have used this same method for holding variables in another application before, where I needed to print to PDF. I used this approach in the other application because my queries were not within the APEX character limit specified for the "SQL Query of Report Query shared component".
In this application, I initially had to fetch values from 2 tables and update the 2 tables. Updateable form works only with one table right? Hence I had created a view. Later the design got changed to include search and instead of changing the application design I just changed the view then. Still later, my clients merged the 2 tables. Once again I had just changed my view.
Now, I wanted to know if any method was available for the pagination issue (using the view itself). Hence I posted this.
But as you suggested, I think it is better to change the page design quickly (as it would be much easier).
If I change the region query to use the table and the APEX bind parameters in the where clause as:
SELECT *
FROM REGADM_REQUEST
WHERE upper(employee_name) LIKE '%'||nvl(upper(:P1_EMPLOYEE_NAME),'%')||'%' .....
I also changed the ApplyMRU to refer to the table.
Here the pagination issue is resolved. But here the "last Update By" and "Last Update Date" columns do not get updated with "SYSDATE" and "v(APP_USER)" values, when update takes place. Even if I make the columns as readonly text field, I am not sure how I can ensure that SYSDATE and v('APP_uSER') can be passed to the columns. Any way I can ensure this? Please have a look at the issue here: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=19399:1:
I have currently resolved the "last update" column issue by modifying my view as:
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW REGADM_REQUEST_V
AS
SELECT *
FROM REGADM_REQUEST
I modified my region query to use APEX bind parameters itself as:
SELECT *
FROM REGADM_REQUEST_V
WHERE upper(employee_name) LIKE '%'||nvl(upper(:P1_EMPLOYEE_NAME),'%')||'%' .....
And I use the "INSTEAD OF UPDATE" trigger that I had initially written for update. The code is:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER REGADM_REQUEST_UPD_TRG
INSTEAD OF UPDATE
ON REGADM_REQUEST_V
REFERENCING NEW AS NEW OLD AS OLD
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
UPDATE REGREGOWNER.REGADM_REQUEST
SET MANAGER_EMAIL = :NEW.MANAGER_EMAIL
, EMPLOYEE_EMAIL = :NEW.EMPLOYEE_EMAIL
, STATUS_UPDATE_DATETIME = SYSDATE
, USER_UPDATE_ID = (SELECT v('APP_USER') FROM DUAL)
WHERE REQUEST_ID = :OLD.REQUEST_ID;
END;
Please let me know how I can resolve the "last update" column issue using the table itself. (Just for my learning)
Thanks,
Sumana

Want to update data in a view based on multiple tables

Hi
I am facing a problem i want to update data in tables using a view. As that view is based on multiple tables so i am unable to update data. i came to know we can update table from view only if view is based on single table. so if anyone knows any alternative please let me know.
Thanx
Devinder

Devinder,
The table can be updated through a view based on multiple tables, if and only if the table is a "key preserved" table. Rather than explaining myself, i avoided the burden of typing by finding the material in Oracle Docs and pasting it for you :-)
If you want a join view to be updatable, all of the following conditions must be
true:
1. The DML statement must affect only one table underlying the join.
2. For an INSERT statement, the view must not be created WITH CHECK
OPTION, and all columns into which values are inserted must come from a
key-preserved table. A key-preserved table in one for which every primary
key or unique key value in the base table is also unique in the join view.
3. For an UPDATE statement, all columns updated must be extracted from a
key-preserved table. If the view was created WITH CHECK OPTION, join
columns and columns taken from tables that are referenced more than once
in the view must be shielded from UPDATE.
4. For a DELETE statement, the join can have one and only one key-preserved
table. That table can appear more than once in the join, unless the view was
created WITH CHECK OPTION.

Creating a manual tabular form on an empty table

Hi all,
I am trying to create a manual tabular form on an empty table. Is it possible to display textboxes and column headers, when I run the report I get "no data found".
Regards,

Hi Denes and thank you for your valuable input.
My problem is in fact that, I have created the tabular form by using a report region with a SQL query, something like,
select apex_item.display_and_save(1, p.bolge) bolge,
apex_item.display_and_save(2, p.hafta) hafta,
apex_item.display_and_save(3, p.yil) yil,
apex_item.display_and_save(4, p.mamul) mamul,
apex_item.display_and_save(5, p.tahmin1) tahmin1,
apex_item.display_and_save(6, p.tahmin2) tahmin2,
apex_item.display_and_save(7, p.tahmin3) tahmin3,
apex_item.display_and_save(8, p.tahmin4) tahmin4,
apex_item.display_and_save(9, p.tahmin5) tahmin5,
apex_item.display_and_save(10, p.tahmin6) tahmin6,
apex_item.display_and_save(11, p.revize4) revize4,
apex_item.display_and_save(12, p.revize5) revize5,
apex_item.display_and_save(13, p.revize6) revize6
from portal_link.v_planlama p
The problem is that, since there is no data in the table, when I run the page, I cant get the form to be rendered, and I get a nice "no data found". There should be a way to get the form rendered, hence making it available for data input.
Regards,
Onur

Exception Handling for a Form Based on a Table

I created a form based on a table. If a user tries to enter a
record with key data that matches an existing record, Oracle
Portal creates a page and displays:
Error:
An unexpected error occurred: ORA-00001: unique constraint
(TIMETRACK.SYS_C007185) violated (WWV-16016)
How can I capture this exception so that I can display a
friendlier error message (via a JavaScript alert or other
means) instead of this page?
Fran

James, I tried your suggestion as follows:
doInsert;--- This is the default handler
Exception
when DUP_VAL_ON_INDEX then
p_session.set_value(
p_block_name => "_block",
p_attribute_name => '_STATUS',
p_value => ' Time has already been entered for this project on
this date. Click the Back button to return to the MIM Time
Entry page. ');
Raise;
end;
It did nothing. All I got was the default message.
I then changed '_STATUS' to 'A_STATUS'. The resulting error
message was: "Error: (WWV-00000)"
ON A RELATED NOTE...
I discovered while testing this form on IE 5 on a Mac, that
additional error messages are generated. With IE 5 on WindowsNT
only a message regarding the unique constraint is produced. On
the Mac there is an additional message "No conversion performed
for type INTEGER, value is NsNu (WWC-49102)"
Anyone have any thoughts as to why the output of system
generated errors should differ between a PC and a Mac?

How do I Create a Tabular Form for an Intersection Table

Situation
There are three tables involved (PROJECT, STAFF, TASK)
PROJECT(PROJECT_ID, PROJECT_NAME)
STAFF(STAFF_ID, STAFF_NAME)
TASK(PROJECT_ID, STAFF_ID, HOURS)
There is a many to many relationship between PROJECT and STAFF. The intersection table is TASK.
Issue
I would like to create a tabular form for the TASK table. I would like to be able to click on a button (Add Row) to add a row to the existing tabular form. The row will have a LOV for the PROJECT_ID (showing PROJECT_NAME) and one for the STAFF_ID (showing STAFF_NAME) and a free form text field for the hours.
I've tried a bunch of different ways but am unable to acheive this functionality. I must be doing something wrong. This sort of thing is trivial.
Any guidance/suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Adding a new surrogate key column to an existing table is not that big a deal.
alter table t add (pk int primary key);
create a before-insert row-level trigger to populate the key;Other than that, you are out of luck w.r.t the wizards. Yes, you can define a 2nd PK column in the wizard, but then the 2 PK columns becomes read-only (but you want to update them).
You can write your own tabular form using htmldb_item APIs and your own after submit processes to process the updates. See the manual Tabular Form Howto in the documentation.
Thanks

Open Form Based On A Table in same window

Hi All,
First to make things clearer I'll explain what I CAN do:
Create a page which queries a session variable at the start and then
depending on its value outputs different HTML, but always in the same
format and more importantly the same window, to keep the look and feel etc...
I have a link in a page which when clicked opens a form using wwa_app_module.link
so it auto queries the form. This works fine.
What I CAN NOT do is:
The form was created using the "form based on a table wizard" and always opens
in a new window.
Can I make the form open in the same window that contains my wwa_app_module.link?
Is this possible in a newer version that I have (I got Release 1)
Any Suggestions?
Cheers,
Barry

Firstly thanks Rahul Dubey for responding.
What I mean by " contains my wwa_app_module.link? " :
I have a form which contains a link similar to the one below:
http://xxx.co.uk:8015/pls/pod130/PORTAL30.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=1389245486&p_arg_names=EMPNO&
p_arg_values=7654&p_arg_names=_empno_cond&p_arg_values=%3D%3E
When I click on this link it opens the form and runs a query automatically.
The problem is I want to click on the link and have the form appear in the
same window, not a new one.
Cheers,
Barry

Error creating form based on a table

This is wierd. I am running WebDB2.2

Delete button on Form based on a table

I created a form based on a table. For the delete button, how can I make it ask before deleting the record? ie, when the user hits Delete, a question comes up that asks: Do you really want to delete this record? The user then hits Yes or No.
Please be specific, I'm new to Portal. Thanks for any help.

1. Edit your Form and go to "Step 4 of 7, Formatting and Validation Options" section of the builder.
2. In the left frame, click on DELETE_TOP and/or DELETE_BOTTOM link.
3. In the right frame, you should see a section (i.e. "Javascript Event Handlers") where you can add your own javascript code. Click on the onClick event.
4. In the adjacent free-text field, add the following code:
javascript:if(confirm('Do you really want to delete this record?')){
null;
else
window.stop();
5. Click on OK to compile. That's it.
The window.stop() is needed to prevent the PL/SQL event handler (i.e. Update) from running. Without window.stop(), if the user presses Cancel, the form will perform an update anyway. You'll need to remember that the Form will by default perform the Javascript handlers first, then the PL/SQL handler.

Need to build a form based on a table in a different schema

Hello all,
I am still new to APEX. I have been playing with it for a few days.
I have an APEX user 'demo' whose default schema is demo1.
But I need to create a form that can insert,update and delete based on table 'employee' in schema demo2.
Demo has all the rights on employee table in demo2. I also assigned the demo2 schema to demo user's workspace.
But when I am building the form, demo1 is th eparsing schema, but in table/view owner only demo1 is available. I don't see demo2 even though I assigned it to demo user's workspace.
Is it possible to build a form based on a table in a different schema? I tried creating a synonym, but it doesn't show up in the list of tables to select from.
I don't want to create views or anything because there are many tables in different schemas and it's not possible to go on creating views or such for each one.
I was able to access th etable in a report though by prefixing the table name with the schema name.
I would appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction.
Thanks!

Varad,
Thank you for the explanation. So from what I understand, every time I create a form or report based on a table in a different schema, just change the parsing schema in application definition to the new one and create the form or report. So this way my forms and reports or whatever can be based on different tables in different schemas and they would run fine when deployed in a runtime environment (provided the appropriate privileges are there on the objects in context)?
I tried this and I was able to see the different schema and select the table and create the form. I haven't tested in runtime though.
Seems like a feasible option, need to test all scenarios though. If this is a feasible solution then there is no need to create synonyms or views (I am not talking about others' scenarios such as security etc) etc. Just appropriate privileges will do it.
Thanks Varad. Have you used this way of creating a form in your apps? I need to explore more to see if it breaks anything.
So, every time I need to select an object, say a table, in a different schema I need to temporarily change the parsing schema to that schema in the application definition? Is that a correct statement?
I will leave the thread open to see if anybody has any comments.

How to create Form based on a table to display multiple record

Hello All,
Would somebody please tell me how to create a Form based on a single table ,
to view and insert multi record based on a single table.In other words I would like
to have a form as shown below ,where the users can Insert,update,delete,query and so on
Item Id PArt Number List Price
100 Item-1 $120.oo
200 Item-2 $150.00
300 Item-3 $50.00
I know I can do it as Single Record block using Tabular Format,but multiple record ?????
Thanks in Anticipation
Babu

Try this method,
1. Creat a Master Detail Form (Custom Layout and not tabular)
and in the master block select one field.
2. In the HTML layout for master remove the reference for
that field(so that nothing will appear in the master block
of the form).
3. Before the update (in the Pl/SQL event handler select the 'Save' event and write the following code to avoid updating master block).
p_session.set_value(p_block_name => 'MASTER_BLOCK',
p_attribute_name => 'MASTER_ACTION',
p_value => 'None');

For eg, let's say
Master is from 'Dept' table and Detail is from 'Emp' table(with join condition Dept.dept_id = Emp.dept_id). In the master remove everything except dept_id field and in the HTML layout for master remove the reference of the dept_id field(you cannot remove this field physically from the master layout). Now the form will look like multirow form rather than master detail form but only problem with this workaround is 'Detail Action' will be present in the detail block.
I hope this will help you.
Thanks
