1.In my application there is a requirement to display certain value (among the 3 different values) in each row of the table column,the value to be displayed in each row can be decided by checking the values of two different model key paths.
This i tried to implement using bindings,where i used "Display pattern Value1 with one key path and custom value transformer class" and "Display pattern Value2 with other key path and same value transformer".But i am not getting desired output value from the transformer class.Can anyone please help me in resolving this issue.
2.In the other application there is a table view with 3 columns,where the first column displays the complete word,second column displays the prefix of that word and the third column displays the suffix of that word.
I implemented this requirement using bindings and two custom value transformer classes.One for getting the prefix of the word(prefixExtractor) and the other for getting the suffix of the word(suffixExtractor).Can anyone suggest me how can i implement this requirement using only one custom value transformer class so that it optimizes my code.
Thanks in advance.

I've data table with list of names which are having few differences. I am trying to change those text to similar name within data table as image in below.
If part of the text in cells in data table are matching with the "Abbreviations" list(Col-AK) then Data table text must replace with the text in "To be replaced" (Col-AL) into "Expected Return Table". I've tried using may different functions to accomplish my ultimate target, but none of them is giving perfect answer.
Can anybody help me with this problem.
I found an answer to my problem. I could do this using below formula.
Step 01:- I've used below static formula at first to identify the dynamic formula
=IF(LEFT(AC2,4)=$AK$2,$AL$2,AC2)
Step 02:- Then I've used Index function to return the first text in abbreviation list which is Iodine by only changing partial of the formula to return only single value avoiding others. Ex: Firstly I considered only about the Iodine in the list. This will only replace Iodine into the expected data table.
=IF(LEFT(AC2,4)=INDEX($AK$2:$AK$11,1),$AL$2,AC2)
Step 03:- Then row_num turned into dynamic and expanded the return text data into range($AL$2:$AL$11) from single($AL$2) using Match & Left function as below.
=IF(LEFT(AC2,4)=INDEX($AK$2:$AK$11,MATCH(LEFT(AC2,4),$AK$2:$AK$11,0)),INDEX($AL$2:$AL$11,MATCH(LEFT(AC2,4),$AK$2:$AK$11,0)),AC2)
Step 04:- Finaly ignore errors using IFERROR Function.
=IFERROR(IF(LEFT(AC2,4)=INDEX($AK$2:$AK$11,MATCH(LEFT(AC2,4),$AK$2:$AK$11,0)),INDEX($AL$2:$AL$11,MATCH(LEFT(AC2,4),$AK$2:$AK$11,0)),AC2),"")
Expected Return Data Table as shown below.
How to read an excel sheet and put the cell value within different text fields through UiPath?
I have a excel sheet as follows:
I have read the excel contents and to iterate over the contents later I have stored the contents in a Output Data Table as follows:
Read Range - Output:
DataTable: CVdatatable
Output Data Table
DataTable: CVdatatable
Text: opCVdatatable
Screenshot:
Finally, I want to read the text opCVdatatable in a iteration and write them into text fields. So in the desired Input fileds I mentioned opCVdatatable or opCVdatatable+ "[k(enter)]" as required.
Screenshot:
But UiPath seems to start from the begining of the Output Data Table whenever I called for opCVdatatable.
Inshort, each desired Input fileds are iteratively getting filled up by all the data with the data stored in the Output Data Table.
Can someone help me out please?
My first recommendation is to use Workbook: Read range activity to read data from Excel because it is quicker, works in the background, and does not require excel to be installed on the system.
Start your sequence like this (note the add headers property is not checked):
You do not need to use Output Data Table because this activity outputs a string containing all row items. What you want to do instead is to access the items in the data table and output each one as a string in your type into, e.g., CVDatatable.Rows(0).Item(0).ToString, like so:
You mention you want to read the text opCVdatatable in an iteration and write them into text fields. This is a little bit more complex, but i'll give you an example. You can use a For Each Row activity and loop through each row in CVDatatable, setting the index property if required. See below:
The challenge is to get the selector correct here and make it dynamic, so that it targets a different text field per iteration. The selector for the type into activity will depend on the system you are targeting, but here is an example:
And the selector for this:
Also, here is a working XAML file for you to test.
Hope this helps.

Here's a different, more general approach. Instead of including the target in the process itself, the Excel would be modified to include parts of a selector:
Note that column B now contains an identifier, and this ID depends on the application you will be working with. For example, here's my sample app looks like. As you can see, the first text box has an id of 585, the second one is 586, and so on (note that you can work with any kind of identifier including the control's name if exposed to UiPath):
Now, instead of adding multiple Type Into elements to your workflow, you would add just a single one, loop over each of the datatable's row, and then create a dynamic selector:
In my case the selector for the Type Into activity looks as follows:
"<wnd cls='#32770' title='General' /><wnd ctrlid='" + row(1).ToString() + "' />"
This will allow you to maintain the process from the Excel sheet alone - if there's a new field that needs to be mapped, just add it to your sheet. No changes to the Workflow are required.
I still have problem defining composite key in jqGrid. Even though I set the 3 fields that are the composite key with attribute 'editable: true', the jqGrid does not behave correctly. I haven't used any 'key=true' in any of the fields as the jqGrid document mentions it that not more than one field can use this attribute. When I point to one of the rows in the List View, jqGrid high lights two rows, instead of one row. Is there any other attribute I need to use to specify more than one field for the composite key.
The usage of composite key is very easy. The property id if input items is used by default as the key (rowid). Thus you need just fill the input data with id properties, which constructed from the 3 fields and some separator, like _ for example, which is not a part of the field. If you will have some implementation problems, then you need just include an example of input data and the composite key, which you want to have.
I have a grid where the user can select records via checkbox in front of every record. Now I have a requirement to sort the records based on their selection, so that all selected records should be placed top, followed by the not selected ones.
Is there any standard function to achieve this? As an alternative I thought of saving the selection state as an attribute on every record and sort based on the attribute.
The code for the column is:
gridRealmDt.setSelectionType(SelectionStyle.SIMPLE);
gridRealmDt.setSelectionAppearance(SelectionAppearance.CHECKBOX);
I try to describe the code I use as the affected code is deeply nested in our own framework classes.
gridRealmDt is a subclass of smartgwt ListGrid. In my Dialog a create an instance of the grid which creates an instance of a database bound datasource. When the dialog is loaded the records are fetched from the database and after that a registered an dataArrivedHandler where I select the records which match records from another table.
I tried to place the selection attribute in an extra field and use that for sortig before my other sort criteria, but this does not work. Here is the code for the field I am using.
ListGridField txtSelected = new ListGridField(SELECTED, "");
txtSelected.setHidden(true);
txtSelected.setSortByDisplayField(true);
txtSelected.setCanSortClientOnly(true);
When I do not set the canSortClientOnly property the order by is sent to my database resulting in an error, as the table does not contain that field, so I set the property. Now I get following error
Removing field from the sort Specifier array because it specifies canSort Client Only: true and all data is not yet client-side.
I also tried to use a sortNormilizer on the Name field which is my main sort criteria, but the normalizer is called before the selection value is set to the record.
record.setAttribute(CARealmDS.SELECTED,selected ? "a" : "b");
I also cannnot find a way to call the normalizer when selection changes.
Currently we are using Smart GWT Version 6.0p.
I don't think there is any standard function. Just use grid store update. Place checked items first.
I'm building a report where I have a subreport. This subreport brings some data through XPath, this means it's everything strings from a XML. One of the columns of this subreport has some values, where I need do sum them and show in the end of the table.
I don't know how to put this to work. I've tried to create a variable with sum parameter, but it does not work.
Did anybody need this before?
Scenario:
I load a lot of values from a XPath query, e.g:
/something/something1/something2
This query returns some fields according to my needs. With them I build a table (in a subreport). The problem is: the last column (4), values are strings from XML.
iReport version: 3.0.0
Really thanks!
Solution:
What I needed? According to the original post, a column with strings read from a XML through XPath and a footer with the sum.
Result from column SUM
What to do? Create a variable where you'll keep your sum. After created, edit it. e.g:enter image description here
Fill variable expression with the format you need. Here I used
new BigDecimal($F{theFieldToSum});
Click ok. Now the variable is created, you must create a new TextField where you'll show your sum. Create it and edit it. Here I used the following format:
new java.text.DecimalFormat("#,##0.00").format($V{theVariableYouCreatedBefore})
Click "Apply" and that's all. Compile your report and now you'll have the expected result. For sure, you can do some adapt, but in general this is the process.
