i have a text field where i am putting values from an LOV and i want to check for wrong entries like if the user enters a wrong code it should display the message "wrong code".so this is the code i am using in the when validate item trigger:
begin
declare
pc number;
begin
select count(*)
[code]...
But it doesn;t work, it acepts the wrong code also.
i need to pop up an alert using a trigger to test the data type of a field per example if the input is not a number an alert will popup "Please insert a number"
I am trying to make a particular field (called reason_code) "required" on a form I am working on. Now this field has two fields before it, and I have to tab to reach my reason_code field.
But the functionality I want is that when I tab into the reason_code field, the WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM trigger should fire even when this field is NULL.
IF :REASON_CODE IS NULL THEN MESSAGE ("Please enter a reason code!"); end if;
The trigger doesn't fire when I don't enter a reason_code field and I can tab past this field and not get the ("Please enter a reason code!") error message.
On researching the problem, I saw that this field has to be of status "CHANGED" in order for the trigger to fire.
I have a form (StaffDetail) with three different blcoks. One of them is an Application Assignment block which consists of nothing but Assignment Type, Staff (Name), Last Updated By and Last Updated Date.. The Assignment Type and Staff has LOVs assigned to them individually.. Assignment type lets me pick all different types except for Project Manager. As soon as I select this option, i get the following error :
This does not even let me select any other Assignment type, then i have to go close all sessions and come back into the same screen.
Also, this form was first created and tested on the development environment and later moved to QA environment. All selections work in the development environment.. I checked for the roles in QA for individual Users..
I have Written this code in WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM-TRIGGER on PO_DATE field

[code]...
when i am navigating through po_DATE field in the form its showing the error that

i have a table called equipment containing engine_type_id.in the equipment form that is based on the equipment table, i added a non database item called engine_type.
i added an LOV for the engine type field, so that the user can choose the engine type from the the egine types table. i made the engine type id hidden. and set the validate item from LOV to yes.on post query trigger, i selected the engine type into the nondatabase field.
the form is working properly.
when i push CTRL F11 (query) and scroll, even if i didnt change anything the form builder asks me , do u want to save changes.
I have developed a form with some text items,a list item and a image item...
list item......account_list(values....company,individual) text_item..... company_name.. text_item.....image_path...
i have attached a pop up menu to image item... Add image and upload image...
When i click on 'Add image' the image path is getting enabled.. it is fine but when i am changing the account_list i need enable and disable the 'Company_name' text item... How can i achieve this??
I have tried it in when-validate-trigger on account_list...
if account_list=individual then set_item_property('company_name',enabled,property_false); else set_item_property('company_name',enabled,property_true); end if;
Suppose if I have defined two triggers Key-next and When-validate-item on the same item.
If my key-next is going to fire first and When-validate-item laterhow can the validation happen if I write a code like go_item('XXXX') in my Key-next.Does it mean that if u write a code in key-next to jump to some other item, no validation takes pLace?
This is my first post in the form and also i'm new to oracle forms technology.
I have the following issue:
In my form i have two Text-Fields to store some information for a claim:
A --> Profit and B --> Loss (only one of the filed can have value)
Also i have a data block where i store the reason of the claim (status). Reason can take three values 1, 2, 3. For each claim i can have more than one reasons stored in db table.
if the user input more than one reasons, then if one of them is 1 Profit should be set unprotected and Loss should be set to protected.
I have the following issue.
user creates a records with reason 1 : Profit text field is set to unprotected and Loss text filed is set protected.
user creates another record with reason 2: Profit text field is set to Protected and Loss text filed is set to unprotected. --> wrong
How can i validate the values of the two records and create the desired functionality?
I have used the POST-TEXT-ITEM trigger but it works correct only for one record. i insert two records with the above order i have the issue i describe.
I have to create a form and i have to use trigger when-validate-item in enter-query mode . I have read trigger when-validate-item can not use Enter Query Mode . Is there any way to do this when i enter-query?
I am trying to write a procedure using when-validate-record that will clear all fields, display a message and ignore all commits if user is not authorized to have access to make changes to the form.
I have tried to use Clear_form(no_validate)and clear_record and neither works
I have a multi row form (Order Entry form in E Business Suite). When I enter data in a row and error down the validate-item trigger fires and runs some code to check for duplicates, etc and after the cursor should go down to the next row. It goes back to the original row.
I am asked to change an existing field (Category_Desc) from a data block (applications) from a current form with a different field (Facility) from another table (Places) that is not used in the current data blocks. How do i do that and how should i populate the data... The common string between the table used in the form (applications) and the non used table (Places) is the ID No.
make this change and also with a possible trigger to generate the data....
In my form, for an item there is code for pre-text-item trigger. In query mode when i go to next record, previous record etc, whether this trigger gets fired? In other forms it is getting executed. Only in this form it is not getting executed. What should be reason for not executing this pre-text-item? Only this item is enabled and cursor is there.

With reference to the above version details here is the requirement. How do I restrict user on key next item trigger i.e I want the cursor to move to next field only when user presses "ENTER" button on the key board any other key like mouse should not allow user to move to the next field.
IF :item1 IS NULL AND :item3 IS NOT NULL THEN alert_id := FIND_ALERT('blank_alert'); SET_ALERT_PROPERTY(alert_id,ALERT_MESSAGE_TEXT,'Item3 must have a value.'); v_alert := SHOW_ALERT(alert_id); RAISE Form_trigger_Failure; END IF;
My problem was as it fires, the cursor will be on the item1. I've already use
SET_ITEM_INSTANCE_PROPERTY NEXT_ITEM GO_ITEM
but it was all illegal. The cursor must be in the item3.
Don't question me why I do not set the item3 to required and why post triggers. It is just that. It is the requirement.
i want to get the x-pos of item at the radio-change trigger but it return the error
declare x_pos number; lnum_x_pos number; lnum_width number; begin
if :radio_group = 'E' then lnum_x_pos := Get_item_property('Remarks',x_pos); Message('Position of x...'||lnum_x_pos); lnum_width := get_item_property('Remarks',width); Message('width of remarks field..'||lnum_width);
I have a form w/a tab canvas. BlkA is on Tab1 and Blk2 is on Tab2. In BlkA I have several items that have when-validate-item triggers. However, the trigger does not fire when I enter a value into item1 of BlkA followed by clicking on Tab2. To solve, I placed validate(form_scope) in the When-Tab-Page-Changed trigger. This works well with invoking the validation. However, focus remains on Tab2 (Blk2).
I would like focus to return to failed validation item in Blk1. I can capture the block name using :system.cursor_block in the Post-Block trigger of BlkA, assign that value to a form parameter and when a validation fails via the When-Tab-Page-Changed trigger I can return user back to BlkA(Tab1). However, I need direction on how to return user to the specific item in BlkA that failed validation
I am developing form, but there is issue when I Press F11 to query data.I make trigger form when-new-record-instance to assign values for item.But when i Press F11 then Block no clear.
I want to write a trigger to validate the v_status for each ID. below is the example
SEQ_NO ID V_STATUS
11 C 21 C 31 F 42 C 52 F 63 C 7 3 F 8 3 C
For each unique id there will be only one F .. if some one tries to update the 2nd F to the same ID it will show the error message that ID is already F.
