Oracle Apex 19.2 - Create Radio Buttons in Classic Report - oracle

Is there a good visual tutorial that takes through the various steps on how to create radio buttons in Apex 19.2? This tutorial Creating a Classic Report having radio button on each row helped me and I’m looking for a similar one..
In my case, I would like to add a radio button to each row of my classic report which when selected would add some of the informations selected by the radio button in a text field in the same page.
Any advice is much appreciated.
Thank you

Install Sample Reporting application on your APEX instance (preferably on apex.oracle.com as Dan suggested).
Navigate to the Classic Report page.
Change the query to the report to the following:
select rowid,
ID,
PROJECT,
TASK_NAME,
START_DATE,
END_DATE,
STATUS,
ASSIGNED_TO,
COST,
BUDGET,
apex_item.radiogroup(1,TASK_NAME) ACTION
from EBA_DEMO_IR_PROJECTS
where (nvl(:P3_STATUS,'0') = '0' or :P3_STATUS = status)
Note the added column "ACTION" which consists of the apex_item.radiogroup with TASK_NAME value. Let's assume that this is the value that you want to pass to another page item.
Open that column's attribute under Page Designer and disable "Escape special characters" attribute and add a CSS Class (e.g. mycolumn)
Create a Page Item (e.g. P3_NEW).
Now add the following Dynamic Action
Event > Click
Selection Type > jQuery Selector
jQuery Selector > #classic_report .mycolumn input
Your true action will be of the type Set Value and the Set Type is JavaScript Expression with the following code:
this.triggeringElement.value
Your affected element is P3_NEW and disable Fire on Initialization

Why is my Oracle APEX DML Form stuck in edit mode and not going back to create mode?

I have created a page based on "Form & Report" template. So there is the Report page on which there is the create button. That create button leads to the form page which contains.
It is pretty simple. I don't know if there is a cache memory not emptying itself or if there is a setting that I have not properly set.
When I want to create a new database record, Oracle Apex behaves as if I asked it to update a record (though it still presents me with empty text fields).
Below the image of what's happening.
Create button of the Report
Buttons for edit are shown when I click the create button
Those edit buttons are shown instead of the buttons below => This means that the Apex software is behaving like I asked to edit a record not to insert a record.
Why is this happening?
You need to take a look at your create button. Is it passing a value to the form? If so, you probably don't want that. Is it clearing the cache of the form? If not, you probably want to clear it.
Also, on the form page take a look at your processes.. specifically the Automated Row Fetch (ARF) process.. what's the primary key that this process is using?
Also, take a look at the conditions for each button on your form. For the delete/save buttons you likely want a condition type of "value of item / column in expression 1 Is NOT NULL".
For your create button you would want the opposite.. "value of item /... IS NULL".
In both cases for the expression 1 you'd want to use the item that your ARF is leveraging.
#Bloomberg58 if you used the wizard that should not have anyway try to validate the create button in report page and the server-side validation of create and save button in form page

Oracle APEX default value not working on cascaded items

I have a blank page with a static content region (Template = Form Region). I select a project via a select list (there is only one project, so it automatically selects it). I then have a key popup lov (a popup lov that displays the description not the returned number value) from which I select a person to be in this project. I am trying to get the form to display the person I selected and saved previously when the form launches for the first time (since the project is chosen due to there being one). This works when you refresh the page, but it doesn't work if you log out and log back into the form. I tried using the default value with a sql query. I tried using a dynamic action that fires when the project changes; but neither approaches work. I fiddled with all the settings, but couldn't get anything to work. Does anyone know how to accomplish this in Oracle APEX?
I even added a refresh of the cascading popup lov to the dynamic action. I can see the hidden input item showing my defaulted value, but the popup lov does not display it on screen. Is this an Oracle bug?
Also in Javascript from the console
$s("P51_LINE_MANAGER1", "7104");
sets the hidden value, but doesn't display on screen.
$v("P51_LINE_MANAGER1");
does however return 7104.

How to apply filter/specific criteria for browser UI component in Exact Synergy Enterprise?

I am creating a maintenance page where I want to select a task using browser UI component. What I want to do specifically is to filter and show only tasks that are not done yet. Can I implement this using browser UI component? Does Exact Synergy Enterprise offer other components for this functionality?
You should create your browser Repository Explorer and use it in browsefield UI component.
Go to System tab, process to Setup tab and under the Repository section click Explorer. Locate your Repository group, enter it, click Browsers tab next to Business components, Functional components, etc.
Click Add and provide Name, Caption, Caption suffix fields. Then write your SQL query in Query field. The structure is:
SELECT <column(s)> FROM <database table> WHERE <column(s)> IS NOT NULL ORDER BY <column>.
Leave the Column info field empty for now. Fill in the Result columns field with column name which will be used as a Browser component result.
Finally, add database table name in the Table list field. Click Save + Edit column info button. Edit column names from a list shown below Information section and fill in Header/Term ID field with title, describing your columns (this will be shown in Browser UI for the front-end user). Click Save and test your newly created browser. If something went wrong, repeat steps from the start. Most of the time problem could be wrongly filled Column info field.
Now go to your ASPX page and add browsername attribute to your browsefield UI component. Doing so will set the browserfield component to your newly created browser component. This is that you want to see in your maintenance page when setting up the browsefield UI component:
<ex:cardfield runat="server" id="cf" caption="Item" captionid="0">
<ex:browsefield runat="server" id="p" browsername="pbr" datasource="bc" />
</ex:cardfield>
Hope this gives you quick idea of what you need to do in order to adjust it to your situation with tasks.

Creating a Form in APEX to set Variables in a Query for an Interactive Report

I am a relative APEX noob.
I'm running APEX 4.0 against a 10gR2 database.
I've written a query that takes a few inputs (two date fields, for start and end, and a text field for further filtering) and created a dynamic report out of it that works when I pull the input variables (:START_DATE, :END_DATE, :OFFICE) out of it or replace them with static values.
I want to create a form on a page that submits those values to the dynamic report page for use in the query to filter the results the user sees when he or she hits the report.
I'm not having much luck finding a good step-by-step example of this. I created a blank page with two Date Pickers and a LOV select dropdown, but am unsure how to best translate those values into the dynamic report.
Can somebody point me at the right documentation for this?
The following was developed using Apex 4.1 but apart from some cosmetic changes the principles should be the same.
The data comes from the standard scott.emp schema.
Overview
This is page 1, the user can enter an empno and\or a hiredate.
When submit is pressed the following report on a different page is displayed:
How it works
On page 1 I have created the three items shown. The text items are called them P1_EMPNO, and P1_HIREDATE. The action for the button is "Submit Page"
Still on page 1, create a branch with the following values:
This branch navigates to page 2 (which is yet to be developed) and sets the values of items on page 2 with the values from page 1.
Create a new page, in this example this will be referred to page 2.
On page 2 create a new interactive report using the following query:
select e.*
from emp e
Next create two text items in the same region as the report and call these :P2_EMPNO and :P2_HIREDATE. I have found it useful to show these items during development so you can see that the correct values are being passed through to the page. You can always set them as hidden once you happy with the report.
Finally amend the query used by the interactive report to use the values supplied by page 1
Run the application.
You want to reference your page items in your query, which means you'll have to submit your page before your query will pick up the session state of them. What I do when I provide a small parameter form, is to put a button up there as well (i.e. labeled 'Query'), which does a submit.
In your report you can then reference your items. If for example you have 2 items P1_DATE_START and P1_DATE_END, your query could look like:
SELECT firstname, lastname, job
FROM employees
WHERE employment_start BETWEEN to_date(:P1_DATE_START) AND to_date(:P1_DATE_END);

onselect in one combo it changes data dynamically in other combo?

Hello sir I am new to the jsp and ajax world. my problem is
If i select one combo option then it should change the other combo options dynamically without submit button press.
for example if i select the country then it should shows their states in other combo.
I am using servlet & JSP and MS-ACCESS as backend. please reply as soon as possible.
THANKING YOU....
You need:
A piece of JSP which returns a string which can be parsed in javascript to create a list of possible combobox items (value, name) to select in the SECOND combobox, based on a VALUE which can be selected in the FIRST combobox
A piece of javascript which receives the onChange event of the FIRST combobox and uses the then selected value to create a XMLHTTP-request to your JSP (at 1)
A piece of javascript which you can pass to the XMLHTTP-request onReadyStateChange event to execute, which reads/parses the parseable string (from 1) and fills the second COMBOBOX with those values
Good luck
