Use of personalization

Hi Team,
In the forums, it is said that personalization is used to store the variable values like bookmarks. then what is the difference between variant and personalization.
Regards,
Dinesh.

Hi Dinesh,
Variants are used to store a combination of values for different variables that are used in queries/bookmarks/templates.
Variants once created is available for other users to be used by them when running the bookmarks/queries/template.
Personalization is specific to a particular user.
For example If you have a particular variable and you personalize it for particular value.
In such case all the queries/bookmarks will take these values during execution.
Other users cannot use others personalization settings as its specific to a particular user.
Regards,
Amit

  • Is it possible to launch a form from an OAF page using OAF Personalization

    In R11, the Customer Standard form ARXCUDCI was customized to call a custom block from the Address screen. In R12 the customer standard form has become an OAF page. We have decided to create a custom form for the custom block using Oracle Developer. However we need a mechanism to call this custom form from the Customer Standard OAF page.
    My query is if it is possible to call a custom form from an OAF page using OAF personalization only (i.e. without directly customizing the code of the OAF page)
    Thanks
    Sanjay

    Dear Apurba,
    I have made some progress.
    I have open the Customers OAF Page, queried a customer, selected a site and opened it.
    Then chose Personalize "Account Site Address"
    There I added a Button on the Header Address level
    ID=XXTVL_LASSY_BUTTON
    Populated the Additional Text and Prompt properties.
    Also set Destination URI=form:SYSADMIN:SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATOR:STANDARD:FND_FNDMNMNU.
    The button is now showing in the address page, and when I click on it it opens the seeded Menu form.
    I now have to create the custom form and set Destination URI to the Custom Form.
    I am also aware how to add parameters to Destination URI.
    But could you let me know how to read the value from a OAF page form field and reference it in Destination URI.
    I need the value of PARTY_SITE_ID of the Address OAF page.
    Alternatively, the Site Number is displayed on the OAF page. If I can read it that will also do. I can use the Site Number in the custom form rather than PARTY_SITE_ID
    Thanks

    Hi Gayatri,
    I'm not too sure why this isn't working as the logic seems correct.
    Here's another way to do this:
    1) Create another formula and place this on the Details Section:
    whileprintingrecords;
    numbervar x;
    if onfirstrecord then
    x := {Field_to_summarize}
    else if {ExcisePur.ItemCode} <> Previous({ExcisePur.ItemCode}) And {ExcisePur.Batchnum} <> Previous({ExcisePur.Batchnum}) then
    x := x + {Field_to_summarize};
    2) Create another formula and place this on the Report Footer:
    whileprintingrecords;
    numbervar x;

  • Call Another Form using Forms Personalization

    Hi All,
    I have created a Custom form using TEMPLATE.fmb and created functions in Apps and assigned to Responsibility etc and it all works OK.
    Now, I need to call this Custom form from another seeded(PO form) Via Tools -> Menu.
    using Forms personalization I can get the Menu Entry and Actions to execute the Form successfully from the PO Form.
    BUT, I need it to automatically query records in my CUSTOM form based on my current PO_HEADER_ID value on my PO Form.
    How can I do it ?
    Do I need to modify my Block and add some parameters and then pass a value via Personalization ?
    Please help !

  • Capture who changed data using Forms Personalization & changed to what data

    Dear All,
    When the data is changed to a new data (say the price has been changed), I need to capture
    a) the original data
    b) newly changed data
    c) who changed the data
    into a newly created custom table using FORMS PERSONALIZATION.
    How do I do using FORMS PERSONALIZATION?
    Thanks.
    Matthew

    Hey guys, I did it.... and it does work. Here is what I did.
    I created a table to capture the required data.
    CREATE TABLE XYKA_PRICE_CHANGE_DTLS
    LIST_LINE_ID NUMBER,
    PRODUCT_ID VARCHAR2(240),
    PRODUCT_ATTR_VAL_DISP VARCHAR2(4000),
    NEW_PRICE NUMBER,
    DIV_NAME VARCHAR2(240),
    PRICE_CHANGED_BY VARCHAR2(6),
    PRICE_CHANGED_TIME DATE,
    OLD_PRICE     NUMBER
    Create two procedures which needs to enter data into this XYKA_PRICE_CHANGE_DTLS table. We will pass values from FORMS PERSONALIZATION by calling this
    procedure in the ACTION tab.
    CREATE OR REPLACE procedure PRICE_CHANGE_DETAILS(price IN number,updated_by IN varchar2,disp IN varchar2,prod_id IN varchar2,line_id IN number,head_id in number,old_price in number) AS
    v_name varchar2(240);
    BEGIN
    select name into v_name from qp_secu_list_headers_v where list_header_id = head_id;
    insert into XYKA_PRICE_CHANGE_DTLS(NEW_PRICE, PRICE_CHANGED_BY,ITEM_NUMBER,PRICE_CHANGED_TIME,PRODUCT_ID,LIST_LINE_ID,PRICE_LIST_NAME,OLD_PRICE) values (price,updated_by,disp,sysdate,prod_id,line_id,v_name,old_price);
    COMMIT;
    END;
    CREATE OR REPLACE procedure APPS.PRICE_CHANGE_DTLS(price IN number,updated_by IN varchar2,disp IN varchar2,prod_id IN varchar2,line_id IN number,head_id in number,old_price in number) AS
    V_PRICE_CHANGED_TIME date;
    V_PRODUCT_ID varchar2(240);
    V_LIST_LINE_ID number;
    V_count number := 0;
    BEGIN
    select count(*) into v_count from XYKA_PRICE_CHANGE_DTLS
    WHERE LIST_LINE_ID = line_id AND PRODUCT_ID = prod_id AND NEW_PRICE = price;
    if nvl(v_count,0) = 0 THEN
    PRICE_CHANGE_DETAILS(price,updated_by,disp,prod_id,line_id,head_id,old_price);
    else
    null;
    end if;
    END;
    In fact, I want to capture the current price and the changed price in pricing which is OPERAND field in qp_list_lines_v table (OM MANAGER > PRICING > PRICE
    LISTS > PRICE LIST SETUP)
    In the FORM PERSONALIZATION, enter the seq and the description

    Click APPLY NOW button. Save it and the close this FORMS PERSONALIZATION. Go back to the navigation and then click on the module. Try changing the price.
    Your current and the newly changed price along with who changed it, time etc will be inserted into XYKA_PRICE_CHANGE_DTLS table.

    No. But if you have fields that are not being used, you can change the prompt and repurpose them (provided the data type does not have to change) and validations can be manipulated.
    Have you looked into creating descriptive flex fields?

    No, Firefox is user choice rules over the "wants" of individual websites as far as disabling contextual menus and the keyboard commands.
    Placing a transparent image over the image will keep the less technical user from saving the main image. If they do try to save it all they'll get is the transparent image overlay.
