I have two tables: T1 and T2
Table T1 contains five columns: CT11, CT12, CT13, CT14, CT15
Table T2 contains 4 columns: CT21, CT22, CT23, CT24
I have a page with two regions. Region 1 is a Form on a Table using table T1. Region 2 is an Interactive Report ( IR ) on table T2.
The SQL for region 2 is:
select apex_item.RADIOGROUP(p_idx => 1, p_value => CT21) "Choose", CT22, CT23, CT24 from T2;
When the user click a radio button for a row in the Interactive Report, I would like the values in cells CT22, CT23, CT24 to populate
the CT13, CT14, CT15 fields in the table form in region 1. If a user clicks another row radio button, the values should update.
Using Google and Stackoverflow, I have tried a bunch of options, but I just can't seem to find the correct method.
Hopefully you understand how the f## arrays work a bit and what they look like in the generated html. To solve this you need javascript, and to understand that you do need to know what that html looks like. Nothing is as error-prone as misunderstanding this! Changing the f## array or any of the required columns name may stop the code from working properly, and while I don't think it is too hard, it is simply important to understand it. If you implement it, you will need to be able to support it and not rely on the help of a stranger on the internets. Having said that.
Create a dynamic action.
Event: After refresh
Selection type: Region
Region: your IR region
Condition: -
True action:
Execute javascript code
fire on page load: checked
Code:
$("input[name=f01]", this.triggeringElement).change(function(){
//mind the capitalization in the headers attribute selector
var lRow = $(this).closest("tr"),
lct22 = lRow.find("td[headers=CT22]").text(),
lct23 = lRow.find("td[headers=CT23]").text(),
lct24 = lRow.find("td[headers=CT24]").text();
console.log("22: " + lct22 + " - 23: " + lct23 + " - 24: " + lct24);
$s("P3_CT13", lct22);
$s("P3_CT14", lct23);
$s("P3_CT15", lct24);
})
"input[name=f01]" will select the radiobuttons. You gave the radiobuttons p_idx=>1 and this will translate to the usage of array f01.

The same question once again but with (I hope) better explanation:
I created the most simple case:
An Interactive Grid IG with data source EMP ( table with 14 records contains Ename, Job, HireDate, Salary etc. etc.)
Text field P7_ENAME
After running it looks like below:
What I would like to do is to copy Ename from selected record of IG to P7_ENAME field .
I found several tutorials (text and video) how to do it. Most of them suggest to create dynamic action SelectionChange on IG and when TRUE add a JavaScript code something like below:
var v_ename;
model = this.data.model;
v_ename = model.getValue( this.data.selectedRecords[0], "Ename");
apex.item( "P7_ENAME" ).setValue (v_ename);
and the second step is to create another action: Refresh.
So finally I have a dynamic action with two steps : the first one is a Java script code and the second refresh function on my P7_ENAME field.
Sounds simple and it is simple to repeat/implement. A guy (I suppose) from India published a video on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuFz885Yndw) which I followed and in his case it works good. In my case it simple does not work - field P7ENAME is always empty, no errors appears. Any idea why ? Any hints, suggestion ?
thanks for any help

The best way to debug and achieve what you are trying to do is as follows:
create the Dynamic action with the following setup:
-when -> selection change[interactive grid],
-selection type -> region, region -> your IG region,
-client side condition -> javascript expression: ```this.data.selectedRecords[0] != undefined```
First action of the true of the DA with the type: execute javascript code and fire on initialization is turned on, code: console.log(this.data.selectedRecords);
Run your page, and check the browser console. You should see an array of columns when you select a record from that IG as follows:
Find in that array, which sort number of the array contains the data that you want to use for the page item. Let's say I want the 3rd element which is "2694" then I should change my dynamic action's execute javascript code to:
var value = this.data.selectedRecords[0][2];
apex.item( "P7_ENAME" ).setValue (value);
The last thing I should do is add another true action (and the refresh action at the end) to the same dynamic action with type 'SET VALUE' and 'PLSQL EXPRESSION' as type, put :P7_ENAME in the expression, items to submit P7_ENAME and affected element: item / P7_ENAME as follows:
I have a Master Detial with 2 interactive grids.
I would like to be able to genrate a link based on user input....is that at all possible?
To give a simple example:
Lets say I have website like https://www.google.com/
I would like a user to enter anything...for example "Prague"
Once this is entered, I would like APEX to generate a URL from it to result in: https://www.google.com/Prague
Now I know that Google search does not work like that, but I need that sort of mechanism for our internal company app. Is this possible?
Ideally , once the grid is saved the link in the Interactive grid only said "Prague" but if I click it, it would direct me to https://www.google.com/Prague
This can be achieved using the "JavaScript Initialization Code" attribute of the column.
Example on the EMP sample table (*). Functionality is that when a user enters a value in the ENAME column, it is converted to a google search url.
Create an editable IG on table EMP
Set the type of column ENAME to "Text Field"
Set "Javascript Initialization Code" for column "ENAME" to
function(config) {
config.defaultGridColumnOptions = {
cellTemplate: '&ENAME.'
};
return config;
}
Notice that the column now is a link. A user will have to open in new window to get the actual link value, since clicking the column will active the edit mode.
(*) Sample dataset can be installed using SQL Workshop > UTILITIES > Sample Data Sets > EMP/DEPT
yes, you can let user enter the value and by creating a dynamic action(choose the when attribute as whatever suits you) you can take that value and on another column, use that column as &Columnvalue. for example and concatanate it by using to base url using ||
I have a shuttle list that, depending on the selection of a previous form, may have between one and seven items. Is there any way for me to automatically move the entry to the right hand pane if there is only a single selection, just for the sake of long term optimization and user friendliness?
You can add a default Value to your shuttle item
SELECT YOUR_COLUMN_ID
FROM T0000_YOUR_TABLE
WHERE FILTER_COLUMN_ID = :P_FILTER_ITEM_PREV_FORM
GROUP BY YOUR_COLUMN_ID
HAVING COUNT(*) = 1
If there are more than 1 entries for your filter item the statement will return nothing, if there is exactly 1 entry the entry will be returned and set for your shuttle item
I like sim0n's answer. But here's another that uses JavaScript (you can choose which is best for your use case).
Create a Dynamic Action. Set Name to Page loaded and Event to Page Load.
Select the Action created by default. Set Action to Execute JavaScript Code, then enter the following code in Code.
var itemId = 'P1_ITEM_NAME';
var $opts = $('#' + itemId + ' select:eq(0) > option');
if ($opts.length === 1) {
$s(itemId, $opts.val());
}
Don't forget to change the name of the item to match the one on your page.
When the page loads, the JavaScript will check to see how many options are in the select element on the left. If there's just one, it will set the value of the item using the value to the value of the single option.
I am following an example I found on-line as since I found it on the internet I know it must be correct. I am trying to search for a specific value in an IG and when it is found the line/row is highlighted with red text, Below it the logic I followed and screen shots. Please let me know what I am missing. He is using an employee example and I using my car dealership example. Thank you !
"Here's another approach that works great:
For an IR with this query:
select EMPNO, ENAME, JOB, MGR, HIREDATE, SAL, COMM, DEPTNO,
OFFSITE
from EMP
Define for the column JOB the following Static ID: MANAGER_STATIC
Then create a DA After Refresh on Region where On True Execute the following javascript with Fire
on Page Load=ON:
this.affectedElements.find('td[headers="MANAGER_STATIC"]').each(function(i) {
var lThis = $(this);
if (lThis.text() == "MANAGER") {
lThis.parent().children().css({
"background-color": "#C0C0C0"
});
}
});
And every row that has the value of MANAGER will be highlighted and this will respect pagination.
That Example appears to be for an Interactive Report, but you appear to be using an Interactive Grid.
The easiest way to do this (without coding) is to run the report and use the Actions Button to define Highlighting. E.G.
Fill out form similar to this (Change column selection and value to your requirement):
Afterwards, using the Action Button again to Report->Save the report so it saves the report for All Users.
Our Siebel application has 2 tables, both of them sharing 4 text fields. I want to create a link, to show as a child BC all the records from the second table, having the same 4 values as the current record from the first table.
In SQL this could be easily done with something like this:
select *
from table1 t1
left join table2 t2 on (t1.a = t2.a and t1.b = t2.b and t1.c = t2.c and t1.d = t2.d)
where t1.row_id = '1-23456';
Can I build something similar in Siebel 7.8?
I thought creating a link based on any of the text fields (the one with the least repeating values), and then filter the 3 remaining fields in the child BC search spec, but... how do I reference the parent BC values in a search spec? (Without using profile attributes or calculated fields, which would impact too much on performance).
Note: I can't change the tables for this task, however the child BC will be created for this task and won't be used elsewhere.
You will have to use a link search spec. Links can have searchspec, for exactly this reason. Go to links and search for NOT NULL on the searshspec column to see vanilla examples. The link searschspec is always applied on the child bc, so to accesss fields from parent bc, use the ParentFieldValue function
example:
[Account Id] = ParentFieldValue ("Account Id")
on link "Account Product - CPG/CG SVP Product Baseline - for Adding Data"
