Use session state values to set column value during insert/update

I am building an APEX 4.2 application that uses the canned Data Loading control to upload csv data to a table. I have modified the 'Select Data Source' page of the workflow and it now contains three LOV's that the user selects values from. The selected values are stored in Session State. As I'm new to APEX, I do not know how to reference Session State objects in the context of the Data Loading workflow so that the appropriate columns are set with the correct values. My assumption is that the columns that are apart of the insert statement reside in a collection somewhere. I just don't know how to loop through the collection, determine the correct column, and then set that column's value equal to the corresponding LOV value in Session State.

Scott,
This is in version 2.2.1 and there are no caching features available.
The application does require login.
I'm playing around with the APP_UNIQUE_PAGE_ID right now but I am finding that even in the builder if I edit the attributes of a report column and then try to edit another column it will bring up the last column I edited. Even if I use the record navigation buttons next to the Apply Changes button it will keep bringing me the same page over and over unless I constantly refresh the pages.

Session state value translation issue

Hello.
New to APEX and not all that web-savvy. Using version 3.1.2.00.02.
Little background:
I have a Select List item, "P1_OPERATOR", working from an LOV of relational operators (=, >, >=, <, <=). I use this item as a string substitute in report queries. This works fine for any reports on the page containing the "P1_OPERATOR" definition itself, "PAGE_1".
Problem:
However, when I attempt to set a session state value for a similar item ("P2_OPERATOR") on "PAGE_2" to the value of P1_OPERATOR using the column link of a report on PAGE_1, the value of P1_OPERATOR does not translate correctly for any values involving a right or left angle bracket (it works only for '=').
Scenario:
Let's say I'm on PAGE_1 and I select >=. The reports on that page display as expected. When I click on the link to PAGE 2, the reports there display "invalid relational operator". When I view session state from PAGE_2, I can see that...
P1_OPERATOR is '>='
P2_OPERATOR is '& gt;=' (space added to get it to display on this post).
So it's trying to use the html value for >= as a literal value.
I can also see that APEX has built the URL for the link page as follows...
(abbreviated) http://...:P2_OPERATOR,P2_DATE:%26gt%3B%3D%2C2009-06-27
If I type in the expected literal URL myself (outside of APEX) as...
(abbreviated) http://...:P2_OPERATOR,P2_DATE:>=,2009-06-27
...or even the expected hex URL (outside of APEX) as...
(abbreviated) http://...:P2_OPERATOR,P2_DATE:%5C%3E%3D%5C%2C2009-06-27
...PAGE_2 shows the expected results.
Is there a way to solve this translation problem? Some workaround I haven't thought of?
Thanks for your help.

Use an PL/SQL process On Load - Before Header with the following:-
*:P2_OPERATOR := :P1_OPERATOR;*
You'll have to use a hidden item as your condition (having looked at a page debug, any request value will have expired by the time the process will fire).
create a hidden item on page 2 called P2_SET_OP
use Item = value type of condition in your process where exp1 = P2_SET_OP (don't use colon notation here as ITEM has been specified) and exp 2 = Y
You can even reset P2_SET_OP back to null in the same process as you assighn the operator.
*:P2_OPERATOR := :P1_OPERATOR;*
*:P2_SET_OP := NULL;*
set the value of P2_SET_OP in your link as P2_SET_OP:Y

Need help with the session state value items.

I need help with the session state value items.
Trigger is created (on After delete, insert action) on table A.
When insert in table B at least one row, then trigger update value to 'Y'
in table A.
When delete all rows from a table B,, then trigger update value to 'N'
in table A.
In detail report changes are visible, but the trigger replacement value is not set in session value.
How can I implement this?

You'll have to create a process which runs after your database update process that does a query and loads the result into your page item.
For example
SELECT YN_COLUMN
FROM My_TABLE
INTO My_Page_Item
WHERE Key_value = My_Page_Item_Holding_Key_ValueThe DML process will only return key values after updating, such as an ID primary key updated by a sequence in a trigger.
If the value is showing in a report, make sure the report refreshes on reload of the page.

How to use session state protection

I use Apex 3.2.1
I access my site by a url passing a parameter like this : f?p=101:1:0::::ITEM1:1234567. There is no login and password to access the site.
The value of the parameter ITEM1 is the authorization of the first page, with a database function for the verification.
To secure my site I want to use session state protection so, I enabled it , then I defined "Arguments Must have checksum" for the page 1.
Now , when i try to acces my site with the same url it does not work.
it is the first time a try to use session state protection, could someone tell me what's wrong?

Hi user5719906,
I would suggest that as you need to pass an item and are unable to generate a checksum as you are not yet logged in, that you will need to allow arguments without checksum for this page.
This could be a bit of a hole in your security, but as long as you know it is there and clear the cache for all pages that you branch to, you should be able work around it.
The issue is that a malicious user can set page and application items via the url to an unsecured page.
Regards
Michael

How to use union statement with declare & set function?

Hi Experts,
i have small query about how to use union statement with declare & set function?
Example as below :
DECLARE @name AS date
Declare @name2 AS date
/* SELECT FROM [2013].[dbo].[OINV] T0 */
/* WHERE */
SET @name = /* T0.DocDate */ '[%1]'
SET @name2 = /* T0.DocDate */ '[%2]'
select '2013',t5.U_salmannm,t1.CardName,t2.sumapplied as CollectionAmount,t2.DcntSum ,t3.DocTotal as InvoiceTotal,
datediff(dd,t3.DocDate,t1.Docdate) as Days
from 2013.dbo.orct t1
inner join 2013.dbo.RCT2 t2 on t1.DocNum = t2.DocNum
left join 2013.dbo.oinv t3 on

You have to create stored procedure in SQL only .
Like u must have create for Crystal .
You can execute procedure in query manager but you have to enter parameter manually..
example
Exec @Test '20140101' '20140501'
Every time user has to enter it manually in yyyymmdd format in case of date parameters.
Example
Create Proc [@Test]
as begin
DECLARE @name AS date
Declare @name2 AS date
/* SELECT FROM [2013].[dbo].[OINV] T0 */
/* WHERE */
select '2013',t5.U_salmannm,t1.CardName,t2.sumapplied as CollectionAmount,t2.DcntSum ,t3.DocTotal as InvoiceTotal,
datediff(dd,t3.DocDate,t1.Docdate) as Days
from 2013.dbo.orct t1
inner join 2013.dbo.RCT2 t2 on t1.DocNum = t2.DocNum
left join 2013.dbo.oinv t3 on
t3.docentry = t2.baseAbs
inner join 2013.dbo.ocrd t4 on t1.Cardcode = t4.CardCode
inner join [2013].[dbo].[@CQ_RTSM] t5 on t4.U_BeatCode = t5.U_RoutCode
where t2.DcntSum <> 0.000000 and t3.DocDate between @Name and @Name2
Union
/* SELECT FROM [2014].[dbo].[OINV] T0 */
/* WHERE */
select '2014',t5.U_salmannm,t1.CardName,t2.sumapplied as CollectionAmount,t2.DcntSum ,t3.DocTotal as InvoiceTotal,

Session State Values Only Used After a Page Refresh

We recently moved our application to use Oracle Application Server. I don't know if this is an issue but I thought it might be relevant to my question.
In this application there is report that has a link to another page. This link sets the ID of the company that the subsequent pages use to provide several summarized reports with drill downs. I'll call this the main page.
Users recently started to report that when they drill into the details and use the breadcrumbs to get back to the main page, that page will display the wrong company, one they were viewing recently.
In testing I find that when I click a link to drill down into the details the details page is not for the right company. I check session state and the value of the ID is correct. If I refresh the page I then get the correct drill down page. Some of the drill down reports will pass a page specific ID into each page and others will just reference the ID from the main page. Not sure if this is relevant since the breadcrumbs to go back to the main page would not be able to use every possible page specific ID, my understanding was that once I set the ID in session state on the main page I could rely on it.
Also if I get the wrong details page and click on the breadcrumb to the main page I get the wrong main page (it displays a previously viewed company). Again the session value is correct and a refresh of the page will bring back the right company.
Our systems admin was asked to check if we had WebCache on and she said it was not. Is there something else that could be caching the results of these pages?
Thanks,
Greg

Scott,
This is in version 2.2.1 and there are no caching features available.
The application does require login.
I'm playing around with the APP_UNIQUE_PAGE_ID right now but I am finding that even in the builder if I edit the attributes of a report column and then try to edit another column it will bring up the last column I edited. Even if I use the record navigation buttons next to the Apply Changes button it will keep bringing me the same page over and over unless I constantly refresh the pages.

Custom Tabular form - Session state values disappear

Hi,
I have a custom tabular form page using apex_item and apex_collections. I am using the apex_collection to store the values in memory in order to avoid the data loss in session state. The page is working fine after a validation failure and it shows the values on the second report (as advised for custom tabular forms).
In this, some of the rows have clob value which needs to be edit on a rich text editor. Since apex_item does not provide a solution to have rich text editor, I have to branch to another page on an Edit link for the CLOB data using a modal window. However When I return back from the modal page, the values disappear from session state, and the validation (using htmldb_application.g_fxx arrays) does not take place.
Is there any workaround to overcome this issue?
Apex version: 4.1
Thanks in advance.
Natarajan

Thanks Daniel for your reply.
Actually its an interface with a custom tabular form on page 1 with apex collections and rich text editor on page 2. Since it is not possible to have the rich text editor, I need to have it in another page (I could have it the same page, that is the way I am trying now) however I open the next page as a modal window.
I have a link on the tabular form, so that the clob content is opened in the rich text editor on the next page. After the edit, I update it to the same collection and go back to the tabular form page and refreshes the report. It works fine, but causes trouble to the data entered on the other columns in the custom tabular form.
I have now deviated to another work and put this on a hold. If my explanation is still not clear, I will create the same page in apex.com to simulate the error.
Thanks again.

Application Items/Session State Values and Page Branching

I have users coming into a specific page in my application, passing in a value on the url that sets the value of an application item, where a validation routine occurs. If their session validates, I want to send them to one page, if it does not, I want to send them to a login error page.
During validation, I am setting the values of several application items so that these values can be saved and used throughout their session. The values appear to be setting correctly. I am concerned that setting the application items may not be limiting these values to a particular session. So, I have also tried setting the setting session state variables with code like:
apex_util.set_session_state ('F203_REQ', vReqID);
I found it curious though when I ran this page, not trying to branch so I could check session state, these values showed up as being application items and I saw nothing under session variables.
The problem I am having is that once validated I don't know how to branch to these other pages. I have tried adding some javascript in the header to force a page submit so that I could use a branch setup on the page. However, when it comes time to evaluate the branches (it's using one of the application item values I set earlier), I'm getting an error that no branch has been provided. Further research suggests the application item values are being cleared on the page submit.
So, (1) I either need to know how to preserve those values on submit so the page branch works or (2) I need to branch to the new page without using a page submit and instead doing that in a some code (assuming submit is clearing application item values). I have not been able to find an example of how to do this in code. If there is a way to do this in code, will the application item or session state variable values be retained? I will need these values to be available to the user throughout their session.
Thanks for the help,
Steve

Steve,
I am concerned that setting the application items may not be limiting these values to a particular session.They are set in the current session only.
It is hard to know what you are doing exactly without seeing it. If you set up an example on apex.oracle.com we could could address one specific question at at time.

SSIS: Using CASE Statement Within A Derived Column Transformation Expression

The following is my Data Flow:
Ole DB Source > Copy Column > Derived Column >Ole DB Command
My OLE DB Source has the following SQL command task:
SELECT *
FROM Repair R
LEFT OUTER JOIN Vehicle V
ON R.SN = V.SN
AND R.Reg = V.Reg
LEFT OUTER JOIN Product P
ON R.PID = P.PID
This yields a column of concern for me named PartNumber, which are represented by the following 2 formats:
The following are my Copied Columns:
Input Column = PartNumber
Output Alias = Copy of PartNumber
The following are my Derived Column expressions:
Derived Column Name Derived Column Expression
Name Replace 'PartNumber' LEFT(PartNumber,FINDSTRING(PartNumber,"-",1) - 1)
Copy of Name Replace 'Copy of PartNumber' RIGHT([Copy of PartNumber],LEN([Copy of PartNumber]) - FINDSTRING([Copy of PartNumber],"-",1))
So My PartNumber Column is Replaced with ######### of type
string and the Copy of PartNumber column is replaced with
#### of type int
As I stated earlier PartNumber also is in the format of %-%-% which raises the following question:
How can I replace PartNumber Column with NULL if in format of
%-%-% and take the PartNumber and put it in new column named
SubPart while keeping all the logic within SSIS objects?
So in essence I want to do something like the following:
PartNumber = CASE
WHEN 'PartNumber' LIKE '%-%-%'
THEN ABC = PartNumber AND PartNumber IS NULL
END
I have tried the case statement in a Derived Column expression and is not working. Would I add the
CASE statement to the SQL command task in my OLE DB Source?
I hope this question is concise for you.

If it must be in SSIS, I would put a derived column stage earlier in the process to do my check for me. Then in the second derived column stage do the check against each output column (part, subpart, copy of part) to decide which way it goes
PS Not sure if it's a 2012 function but SSIS has a function called TOKEN that will allow you to pull your subparts for you rather than the left/right you are doing

How to keep up the session state values uncleared after page submit

hi,
i am using Application Express 4.0.2.00.07
and 11g
i have created a tabular form manually useing apex_items.

       *apex_item.text(3,null) as "FS Tag"*
from pli where pid = :P17_PID
order by line_item_no deschere on submit, data gets inserted into the another table(fli),(whixh contains all these columns)
after the page is submitted it returns to same page,
i want the apex_items's text fields to retain the submitted values after returning to the same page
can you tell me how to achieve this.

can i make collections to just collect values from two columns and then put those values to the respective rows in their columns...!!!
guide me to achieve my requirement.

Displaying session state value in XSL-FO

Hi
I'm new to the area of generating PDF documents using Apache FOP with XSL-FO.
I have an 10.2.0.3 instance with Apex4, and I would like to know how to display, for instance, the username or a page item within the report.
This is how I'm referring to elements in my query:
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block><xsl:value-of select="LIST_PRICE"/></fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
But I would also like to display the value of APP_USER, or a page item - and I'm unsure of the syntax. All the XSL websites are great, but don't really help in the case of Apex variables.
Thanks.
ScottWe

While I've made progress on this, I still can't see the results - even though the theory is sound.
I was reminded that the XSL is just referring to whatever is in the XML.
So I ensured that the report includes application and session information; I've included a hidden item on the page that is computed on entry, and I can see the (unpopulated) XML element when I download the XML.
However when I run the report from the page, the item is still empty when I try to refer to it like this:
<xsl:value-of select="P6_DEMO"/>
Should I be referring to it differently?
Cheers

Session state values

I have two pages.The first page branches to the second page when the submit button is clicked.The first page has a text item.I am able to set the item value in the session but not able to set it to a text item in the second page when the page loads after submit.
Pls some one help me.

You need to make sure that no other page processes are causing that item to 'lose' it's value in the page rendering process. The item itself might be set to 'Always replace current value', which would cause what you're seeing.

Using session state in ORDER BY

I have a report region with a PL/SQL function body returning a query as
declare
q long;
begin
q:='select .....'
q:=q||' order by :P1_SORT1,:P1_SORT2';
end;where P1_SORT1 and P1_SORT2 have values from 1..8.
In other words, I would like to the ORDER BY to expand to ORDER BY m,n to sort by that column position in the SELECT list.
This doesn't seem to work. It seems to be getting excecuted as if it were order by '5','6' which doesn't work the same as order by 5,6Any ideas? What am I missing?
Thanks

Scott: I keep getting ORA-00936: missing expression when I try to save the Region. Currently, I am using the "Use Query-Specific Column Names and Validate Query" option. Would I need to change to use Generic columns, I hope not!
I guess I do need to change it to use generic columns, that is the only thing that works. I tried using the v('...') function as well in the ORDER BY but it ust doesn't let me save the region unless I use the Generic Columns.
Is this something Oracle specific or HTML DB specific? I mean, using bind variables in the ORDER BY clause.
Obviously, the reason I would like to use bind variables it to avoid flooding the shared pool with unique SQLs (in my real app, I have 4 sort columns, so I have 16 possible combinations of SQLs!)

Items not in session state when column link used and prevpage not submitted

I have a report on page 2 (cemetery lot info) with a column link to page 3 (burial info).
There is a process on page 3 that updates billing information using items from page 2, and billing code selected on page 3.

Hello,
If I understand you correctly, it seems like your page logic is a bit problematic. The scenario I see is that the user is populating the form part, submiting the page, and the report region is being displayed (as the where clause depends on an item from the form region). Now, the situation you are describing, where the billing information is not correct, is possible if the user changed some of the form items on page 2, didn't submit the page – hence didn't update the report region – but still chose to branch to the next page, using the (non-updated) report link column. If I understand it correctly, you should first correct this situation. If the user is changing some details in the form section, the page should be re-submitted. This will resolve your problem, because as part of the page submit process, session state will be set correctly.
I believe this is the simplest and correct solution. Other options, like updating session state per changed item (using JavaScript) will be much more complicated.
Regards,
Arie.

Application Item values in Session State in APEX 4.2

In 4.2, I am not able to see the session state values of my Application Items if I click "Session" at the bottom of a page. We just migrated from 4.1 and we login to a separate app than where we land upon login. I thought the "Global" scope of the Application Item would allow this to track across apps, but its not working. Is this a known issue?

Is this a known issue?When you say +"Global" scope of the Application Item+ do you mean the true global scope introduced in APEX 4.2, or are you using the term colloquially, as in "not a page item"?The new global scope introduced in 4.2

I login to App 1, but land in App 2. My Application Item lives in App 2. Upon login of App 1, an authentication scheme calls a back end function that assigns variables to the Application Item in App 2. What back end function? How does this function assign values to application items in App 2?APEX_UTIL.SET_SESSION_STATE('APP_ROLE', rec.user_type);

In APEX 4.1 I can see the session state of my Application Items by clicking on the Session button. I cannot see the session state of Application Items after moving everything to APEX 4.2.Have you selected Application Items from the View select list on the session tab and clicked the Set button?Yes, thats what started this thread

Use session state values to set column value during insert/update
