i'm trying to create a Form Module where i show how to use the different Trigger Levels in Oracle Forms (I have a blog).
I'm trying the create this scenario:
Have the user update a specific Item (SALES_REP_ID) and show a message (On-Message Trigger) in the Item Level.
Have the user update a another Item (different than SALES_REP_ID) in the same Block(Orders) and show a message in the Block Level.
Have the user update a different Block other than Orders and show a message in the Form Level.
I know this could be done in a different way, but as i said i'm trying the show how the hierarchy in the Form Triggers works.
What i did trying the achieve this:
I created the ON-MESSAGE Trigger with the property: Execution Hierarchy = Override in every level as showed in the image:
enter image description here
For some reason only the trigger in the Form Level is firing even if i change the property Execution Hierarchy to Before or After in all the triggers.
Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.
In case you want to check the issue a bit closer, module is in this Google Drive Link:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzbEh5klWdQdQmJGTDRjRFNULVk/view?usp=sharing
Data Base: ORCL (Sample DataBase), Schema: OE.
I think, you should get rid of all ":System.Message_Level" statements. They may prevent to fire on-message trigger(s) with respect to their level.

I have a Case View which shows all the records that were created by the me (My Cases view). I now want to all those Cases edited/modified by me to be visible in that view. The problem is those modified by me could be later modified by the system when a workflow updates the Case, which changes the Modified By User data. Thus, not allowing me to use Modified By (Current User) as a condition for the view.
Is there any other way or condition which I can use to make sure the I can accomplish this?
Thank you in advance.
You may create a new Entity with One to Many relationship with Case Entity. Whenever there is Insert or Update you can add a new record in the mapping entity with Modified By Information and Created On OOB.
You can create a view in the new entity with record modified by Me.
P.S - Single case record will be edited multiple times with multiple users so it will result in high volume of data and may want to look for archiving strategy.
I have entity "Work Order" for which I have defined many custom views. Work Orders can have records with statuses as "active ,cancelled, closed, inprogress, submitted" etc. My requirement is - currently logged in user who belongs to a specific team "sales representative" should be able to see all records on view.This can be done easily, but If current logged in user does not belongs to "sales representative" team, she should not be able to see "cancelled" records on view but all other record should be visible to her. How can I achieve this using custom filters if it is possible? Or by code changes?
It is possible to do this with custom code. Without questioning the "why" you'd like to do this (possibly it's sensitive information or something?), you can achieve it using a RetrieveMultiple plugin registered on the pre-operation event. Within this plugin one of the input parameters passed in is called "Query" and will have a QueryExpression. You can simply add a filter to this query in the plugin and the relevant rows will be filtered out. Something like this:
var query = (QueryExpression)context.InputParameters["Query"];
var condition= new ConditionExpression()
{
AttributeName = "statuscode",
Operator = ConditionOperator.NotIn,
Values = { 2, 3 } // Or whatever codes you want to filter!
};
query.Criteria.AddCondition(condition);
To check the current user you can grab the user id from the plugin context and retrieve the necessary info you would like to check.
Doesn't sound like this is possible with advanced find alright. You may be able to achieve it using security roles though. If you could assign cancelled work orders to a specific team, and then organise your security setup so that users who are not sales representatives can't see work orders from that specific team, then it might work. Unfortunately you would have to reassign the cancelled work orders which is not always an option.
Otherwise, you might have to go with a separate view for cancelled work orders, out of the box advanced find should allow you present a blank grid of you are not on the right team. But now obviously you are not presenting a whole view of the work orders.
In general I would go with the security option, and just make it work. Any other option is just a stop-gap. Users can always create custom views, so if you don't lock down access using security roles, the data is still accessible in indirect ways.
Having some trouble getting this to work... I basically want the report to look similar to:
The way I remember doing this in the past was by creating "page groups" in the report wizard. However, I believe that was in VS05, and now the report wizard is very different in VS10. It now has column groups and row groups but no page groups, and I can't see how to get this to work without the wizard either. If tried looking for a tutorial or example but haven't had much luck. Also, the site 'gotreportviewer.com' is pretty terrible and has not been much help.
To create the effect of one record per page means you need to set a group element to the report. For instance assume you have a database table called "Login" and you wanted to group by a person's login name. Here is what you do:
First add a table to the report like so:
The table can be found in the "Toolbox" on the left hand side of VS2010. Once the table is added you will want to add a group to this table:
After this you will want to go to the properties of the group:
Here you simply can set a page break between each instance of a group, in addition, this will give you a "one record per page".
greetings,I'm facing a problem in Oracle Forms 10g. I created a simple master-detail form where i want to save data only from the detail data block (the master will function more as a browser).
The only solution found till now is to edit the properties of text items in the master block and prevent them from inserting/updating. This comes in conflict with the list of values (LOV) appearing when the user tries to input the app_id, or from a search button (i know that the way is not significant). Is there a way that i can pass values to the primary block and function only as a query?
Any help could save me from lots of trouble!
We can set various properties at the block level using the Block Properties palette. In your case you need to toggle off Delete Allowed, Insert Allowed and Update Allowed. Obviously you will want Query Allowed toggled on.
I have a custom entity in Microsoft CRM (4.0). The user has to input records however usually they have a batch of 20+ records that are almost the same apart from 2 or 3 fields which need changing. I know I need to write some custom code to enable this functionally. However can anyone recommend any methods to do this.
Ideally there should be a button that will save and create a copy as a new entity.
My Current way of thinking is to pass all the details as part of the URL and use javascript to strip them out on the page load event. Any ideas welcome.
Thanks
Luke
I found the answer here:
http://mscrm4ever.blogspot.com/2008/06/cloning-entity-using-javascript.html
I've used it and it appears to work well.
Since there are numerous fields, but only certain fields values are different, then i am thinking to set the default value to all the fields, so that users just need to alter those values when needed.
In my approach, i will hook a javascript function on load of the form data entry screen and use XmlHttp approach/Ajax approach to hook to the custom web service to pull/retrieve the default values of each fields. Or you can set those values at the javascript function itself, but the drawback of this, it's difficult to customize later. So i will choose the approach to hook to the custom web service and retrieve those value from some application parameter entity.
Your idea of providing a "clone" button is also a great idea, which means that it will duplicate all the attributes of the previous record, into a new record, so that it will save time for data entry person to customize the different value
EDIT
Since you would enter records in batch mode, how about customizing .ASPX screen to enter records. By customizing through .ASPX screen, you can use a tab , so that users can browse through tabs, to customize the value/attribute of each record.
There will be a "save" button as well as "clone" button to clone some common attribute or value.
I would create a custom web service that would accept the entity type and the ID of the record I'm cloning. Your "Save and Clone" button would call the service, and the service would handle the details of retrieving the current record and deciding which fields to set on the new record. The service creates the record, and sends the Guid of the record back to your button, which then opens up the newly created record.
This way, you avoid the messiness of setting/getting values in JavaScript and tying which fields to set/retrieve directly to your OnLoads, as well as avoiding the possibility of query string that's too long.
The service could easily be sufficiently generalized so that all you'd have to do is add your button to any entity, and it would work, assuming you'd set up your service to handle that particular entity.
One possible downside is that since the clone record button would actually create the record, the user would be forced to delete the cloned record if they decided they didn't want to clone the record after all.
