Forms Personalizations
Saturday, 21 April 2007 04:06 Anil Passi | Print |
In this article, I would like to explain different possibilities of Forms Personalizations. Surely before explaining what can be
done, first we will touch base upon what exactly it is.
Why was forms personalization introduced by Oracle in 11.5.10?

1. CUSTOM.pll is a programmatic methodology for extending Oracle Forms, even for trivial tasks.
2. Multiple developers working on same CUSTOM.pll could cause version related headaches
Does Forms Personalization replace CUSTOM.pll?

Not really, however it does provide an alternative to most common activities for which earlier one would use CUSTOM.pll
Forms personalization is driven by the same set of events as that for CUSTOM.pll.
Keep in mind that Oracle Forms Libraries first invoke the Forms Personalization, and then the CUSTOM.pll too for the same
set of events.
How do I enable Forms Personalizations?

Enable the personalizations using the Help/Diagnostics menu.
What are the various components of Forms Personalizations?

Different components of Oracle Forms Personalizations are listed below. You begin with recognizing which Triggers/Events
that you wish to trap and under what conditions. The condition can be entered using the syntax as defined in the picture
below.
http://apps2fusion.com/apps/apps/147-forms-personalizations?tmpl=component&print=1&p... 9/7/2010
What does the Action Tab do?

Here you will either change form property, or display messages or enable menu etc.
Can I modify SQL Query behind the LOV using Forms Personalizations?
Of course you can. In the below example I am restricting the LOV to less than 3records by introducing where rownum <3 in
record group query.
Step 1. Create a new record group
Step 2. Attach the newly created record group to existing LOV in EBS Form.
Can I call a PL/SQL Stored procedure passing it form field variables?

Yes, using the syntax below.
Note: You can also invoke FORMS_DDL built-in to perform DDL.
Can I call BuiltIn's?

Indeed, as shown below, you can pick from all the form built-in's as below.
You can also call a form function and pass it parameters using Forms Personalizations
Processing can be aborted if validation were to fail
You can invoke equivalent to app_item_property.set_property.

I am displaying the Required property below, however you can use this option for all supportable properties of
app_item_property
You can initialize a global variable. Initialization code is executed if and only if the global variable does not already exist.
Use global variables for passing variables back and forth between two forms.
Please do not use Global Variables if your logic is restricted to a Single form itself.
You can assign values to form fields using global variable.
Using forms personalizations, you can set the Default where clause of the BLOCK too.
Note: Don't forget to reset this clause after your desired operation has been finished. This will facilitate the form to run in
standalone mode too.
Ditto for Order by Clause on block.
For displaying messages, you can either enter a plain text, or your message can be displayed from the result of a SQL
Statement.
Local variables can be defined and they will be active for throughout the session of the current form.
Use global variables if you wish to share the variable between multiple forms.
Below, just for demo, I am setting the local variable to 0.
In the below picture, I am checking if local variable is 0 then display a message.
You can enable SPECIAL1-15 or MENU1-15, to create new menu entries under the Tool menu.
As seen below, the above two setups have instantiated the new Menu Items
SPECIAL16-30 will create entries under Reports menu

SPECIAL31-45 will create entries under Actions menu
You can capture the click on those newly created menu items by trapping event MENU1 or SPECIAL1 [or whatever you
defined]

Hi Anil,
I tried to put a personalization using WNRI on the quantity field and yes it worked. Now the question is that i tried the
same last friday and it did not work for some mysterious reason. I have heard that forms personalization done through
this screen in front end is not always stable and may sometimes behave weirdly. Is it True? Thanks a lot for the quick
reply.

written by Anil Passi , April 23, 2007
Hi Rakshit
It appears that your personalizations are being over-ridden either by standard Oracle code or something in
CUSTOM.pll
As you mentioned, the field gets disabled after you move to quantity field of the next record.
Try to re-enable this in WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE of the QUANTITY field itself and also in WNRI
Also, try to open the form and find the code that disables that field. See if any condition is built around and if that can
be bypassed my means of FP.
thanks,
anil
...
Hi Rakshit
Forms personalization[FP] is as consistent as any other form of coding, because internally FP gets translated into a
program itself.
Glad to hear that it is working now.

Hi Anil, I too have an Oracle Apps blog and I was wondering if you can help me with a requirement from one of the
readers on my blog. His requirement is that he wishes that when querying a SO in the Sales Order form, the
ITEM_DESCRIPTION_MIR value of the SO line would populate automatically to the USER_ITEM_DESCRIPTION field
if NULL, and this needs to be done for all lines, if there are many lines on the SO. Here what he has done so far:
CONDITION: Trigger Event: When-New-Item-instance Trigger Object: LINE.USER_ITEM_DESCRIPTION
CONDITION: :LINE.USER_ITEM_DESCRIPTION is NULL ACTIONS TAB: Seq 10 Property Object Type: Item Target
Object: LINE.USER_ITEM_DESCRIPTION PROPERTY NAME: VALUE VALUE:
=${item.line.item_description_mir.value} (This works but it requires the user to click on the
USER_ITEM_DESCRIPTION field of each line for the value to populate automatically. What is he missing in order for
all lines to populate the value from ITEM_DESCRIPTION_MIR to USER_ITEM_DESCRIPTION)? The requirement is :
When querying a Sale Order, click on the Line tab, they want the system to automatically populate, for all lines, the
ITEM_DESCRIPTION_MIR field value to USER_ITEM_DESCRIPTION field thru Forms Personalization. Any help
would be appreciated... Regards, Joel Asselin

Hi Robert
Please perform this validation in WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD. I believe that will guarantee you to display the
message.
You can also enable Show Custom Events using Help menu, to see the trigger name that gets transmitted to
FP/CUSTOM.pll when the window is getting closed.
However WVR is the ideal candidate for this requirement.

Hi Anil,
I would like to clarify my issue. My error message always displays when the combination of the 3 fields are not
legitimate. My problem is that the assignment screen closes even after throwing the FORMS_TRIGGER_FAILURE.
Specifically:
1. The user changes data on the assigment screen.
2. The user closes the assignment screen.
3. A seeded message asks if user wants to save the changes.
4. The user responds, Yes.
5. My function finds the changed data not legitimate.
6. The personalization displays a message.
7. The personalization throws FORMS_TRIGGER_FAILURE.
8. The assignment screen closes anyway.
How can I prevent the assignment screen from closing if there is an error. The FORMS_TRIGGER_FAILURE does not
prevent the screen from closing. The person screen is displayed and Oracle asks the user to save the changes.
Thanks for your help

Hi Anil,
I tried using WHEN_VALIDATE_RECORD but there are many existing records that produce the personalized error
message. The users many times want to just browse the records in production and the error message popup slows
them down. They prefer to be presented with the error message only when inserting or updating the assignment
record. Is there a way to use WHEN_VALIDATE_RECORD but not produce the message unless the user has inserted
or updated the record. I am currently using POST_UPDATE and POST_INSERT but I run into the problem I described
in my earlier post.
Thanks for your help,
Robert

In the above URL [docs.google.com]
can you please tell the next step how to do and what builtin to use to move the cursor to the first record.
Thanks

...
written by Anil PAssi , May 31, 2007
Hi Robert
WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD must not fire if no changes were done to the record.

Is there anything in POST-QUERY of that block? It is possible that in WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE or WHEN-
NEW-ITEM or POST-QUERY value in one of the database based fields is being altered.
Hence this causes WVR to fire while scrolling through the records.
Please try to fix the source of the problem, then WVR will not fire unless and until record gets modified.
Thanks, Anil Passi

Hi Priya
Unfortunately currently FP does not permit changing block property for Current Record Visual Attribute. If that were to
be allowed, then you could have changed the property depending upon the value of attribute column.
As a workaround, you might try changing Visual Attribute for item instance,against each and every item in the record.
However, you will also need to find a way to reset the Visual Attribute after the cursor moves away from current record.
I guess, given the constraints, the best bet is to use CUSTOM.pll for this requirement
Thanks,
Anil Passi

Well, as you said above i have changed the visual attribute, I am able to change the background colour of an item in a

Hi Manoj
Create a value set dedicated for that DFF Segment.

In that Value Set of type Table, have a OR condition or a UNion to make its SQL sensitive to the desired field.
Alternately, consider using that that field as the context for DFF.

Hi Anil,
Thanks a lot for your great explanation.
We have a requirement to create a new LOV based on a Record group, which will display 10 fields. As soon as the
user selects a value in the LOV, we should default few other fields.
You explained in the earlier threads that it is not possible through Forms Personalizations. Can we do it using
CUSTOM.PLL??
Or is it possible to modify an existing Record group to add couple of additional columns and allow the user to search
based on the new columns?
How do we address these kind of requirements?
If we open up the form and create a new LOV, the changes will go off if we apply a patch that has newer version of the
form.
Thanks in advance,
Mohan.
...
Hi Mohan
Structure of the Record Group must not change, because you can not define the mappings to LOV columns using FP.
In this case, do the below steps:-

1. Create a Custom form that lets you search on your data and it presents results[10 fields] in Multi Record block
2. using FP in main screen, call that form function via tools menu. Tell users that its going to work via tools menu if they
wish to see 10 fields in LOV
3. in the custom form, provide a button to select one of the records. on selection initialize global variables. program this
custom form to navigate back to main form after global variables have been set
4. back in main form, assign the values from global variable into main screen, using FP
Thanks

Anil..Really useful site...Good source of contributions from yourself and others...
Question to you now regarding one area of personalization which I am getting confused and not able to get the syntax
right...
Using the 'Execute Procedure' builtin, I need to read and assign values from form fields.
for eg: There is a block 'ADDR_SU' with a field name 'TAX_CODE'
I need to write a condition in the procedure that if TAX_CODE is null then set TAX_CODE to be 'Exempt'
I am able to do this using

Object_type->Item
Target object->ADDR_SU.TAX_CODE
Property Name->VALUE
Value->nvl(:addr_su.tax_code,'Exempt')
But would like to know how to handle this from within 'execute procedure' builtin.
I have been reading the SPEL and the R12 doco but I should admit I am just going bonkers getting the syntax right..

Entering Multiple Records( Lines) Through form personalization

Hi Anil,
I have been through all your threads on form personalization but couldn't find solution to my problem. I want to enter
Lot/Sublot/Qty through FP while receiving goods. The problem is that there can be multiple lot/sublot for the item being

when i click on lot entry form it should automatically fill the lot/sublot/qty for that item in the form.
I hope entering multiple records can be done through form personalization.

Hi Vivek
You can loop through the records in the table and create multiple records.
See my response to the query raised by Joel on April 25, 2007 [in above thread]
You need to implement something similar to what is described below

http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dcfd8fsc_62fdfvz9
Basically, the idea behind this approach is to force a recursive loop.

You make an exit from the recursive loop when all the cursor records have been looped through

Assiging Value to field

written by Sachin Ahuja , November 19, 2007
Hi Anil,
I have a doubt in performing FP.
I have entered the Order line. Now I'll be calling some procedure which will either return Y or N.
Based on the return value I want to set one attribute on line to this Y or N.
I want all this to happen before line is saved. So I am using FP and trigger When-Validate-Record with Action =
Property
Object Type= Item
Target Object=LINE.ATTRIBUTE16
Property Name=Value
Value = *************
Here I am confused how to return the value and assign it to line so that it gets saved when i save my record.
Thanks in advance for your kind help.

Hi Anil,
Is there any way we can call the inbuilt program unit(package.procedure) of a standard oracle form using forms

Forms Personalization - FRM-40502: ORACLE error: unable to read list of values

written by AN , December 14, 2007
Hi Anil,
Your website helped me a lot in creating an LOV using Forms Personalization. I am struck up with a problem and I
need your advice on this if I am missing some thing. I am using Forms Personalization to create an LOV using builtin.
In the Builtin, I have put the sql query under create record group from query. In the query, when I hardcode a value, in
a where condition, the LOV works fine but when I replace the hardcoded value with :block.field value, it gives the error,
FRM-40502: ORACLE error: unable to read list of values. Below is the part of the sql query where I am facing this
issue.
"WHERE related_customer_id = :ORDER.INVOICE_TO_CUSTOMER_ID"
Please get back to me if you have faced with this kind of problem.

Defaulting a value in the Confirm Delivery Screen of Shipping Transactions

written by Aravind Gorthy , December 28, 2007
Hi Anil,
I have a requirement in Order Management - Shipping Transactions - in which I need to default the Ship Confirm Rule
with a new value based on the responsibility the user gets into. But the Document Set is also attached with this rule
and based on this rule the document set should change. When I am trying to do it I dont any errors but dont get even
the value populated. I tried using the When new item instance and when new block instance by trying to put forth all
the possible conditions in defaulting it to some value. I logged in re-logged in and tried several times but no value is
appearing. If I try to restrict it with some particular value for the DLVY_SHIP_CONFIRM_RULE_NAME then I find the
app hangs out with some wierd errors. Could you please help me out in putting this straight.

Disable Save Button / Disallow saving a form

written by V V Bhargav , January 05, 2008
Hi Anil,
I am trying to do a forms personalization, for AP (Invoice Batches - Distributions)
The personalization is done for the activity when the user enters invoice through invoice batches, and enters
distribution info for each invoice line. and now when the user selects a code combination in the account field it is
verified from the account code segment (as to whether it is not a liability account). Now i have restricted the user to
move ahead or back in the form, and have also shown him an error message through personalization. But ironically if
the user just presses the OK button of the message box, he can still save the record. I dont want the users to save the
record after entering restricted account codes

Hi Anil,
I agree for raising the form trigger failure. But the distributions window has many lines. so suppose if didnt have that
personalization and the user had entered some few correct lines and some few wrong codes in some lines. how to stop
the user from saving.. that is if i put the code in when-validate-record... the trigger will only verify the latest record... will
the trigger get fired for all lines in the block.
Please help.

Hi Bhargav
WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD will fire for each record that gets modified. Hence when you raise exception, user will not
be allowed to proceed to next record
Thanks
Anil
THanks
Thanks a ton dude.
Thanks once again.. it worked.. i had different ideas about when-validate-record.
And by the way i have the same kind of issue but its a bit varied..
like i have done one more personalization in Order management (Sales Orders) form. When you enter the line items
for a sales order.. the requirement was that we need to disable the DFF when the user selects an item of the same
company but different organization ID.. so when i disable the DFF for the first line with personalization.. and if the user
again selects a valid item in the next line.. then the dff which was disabled in the previous line(s) gets enabled again
how to beat that...!!!
Thanks and regards,

I have a basic doubt in Form Personalization.
Level - Function
Trigger Event - WHEN_VALIDATE_RECORD
Trigger Object - ASSIGNMENT
condition - 1=TRIDENT_UNIQUE_POSITION(:ASSIGNMENT.POSITION_ID)
Processing Mode- Not in Enter-Query Mode
Level - Site
in Action Type - Message
Message Type - Error
Message - You have entered a Position Flexfield combination which is already assigned to an employee. Please
choose an unassigned Position Flexfield combination.
Here TRIDENT_UNIQUE_POSITION is a function

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION TRIDENT_UNIQUE_POSITION(p_pos_id in NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER
IS
l_count NUMBER:= 0;
BEGIN
SELECT COUNT(*)
INTO l_count
FROM per_all_assignments_f
WHERE position_id = p_pos_id;
IF l_count >0 THEN
RETURN( 1);
ELSE
RETURN(0);
END IF;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
return (9);

Here the error message is coming always ie. whenever the record is querying from db also.
Could u pls suggest one solution to prevent the error message whenever the record is querying.

When-validate-Item trigger is getting fired multiple times

Hi Anil,
It woud be great if you can help me with this. I'm a beginer in Oracle froms.
I've used when-validate-item trigger to validate the item field there by calling a procedure in it. The procedure is
validating and when failed raising an exception which is gettign captured as folows.
begin
if then
EXCEPTION
WHEN error_location THEN
message('Invalid carton for this transaction, please check carton location.');
raise form_trigger_failure;
end if;
Exception
WHEN error_pick_released THEN
message('Order is already Pick Released');
.
.
this is the proc which is gettign called in when-validate-item trigger
as
begin
if then
validate_cc; --Proc given above
end if;
exception
when others then
end;
in the form when the validation fails I do see the error message 'Order is already Pick Released' thrice. The trigger is
getting fired thrice. When the validation fails the control it movign back tot eh same field and it gets fired again i
guess..How can I overcome this.

...
written by Anil Passi- , April 26, 2008
Hi Premal
I haven't really tried that.
But surely, in that pl/sql procedure/function, you can set a pl/sql package session variable.
Next, in FP, you can create another personalization, which has a where clause depending upon that pl/sql package
session variable.
Needless to say, you will define a function in package that returns the value of package variable.
Forms uses one single session, hence package variable values will be retained between different trigger calls
Cheers

strange behavior tied to custom forms in apps

written by Richard D. Chisnick , October 03, 2008
Hello Anil,
Something strange is happening in apps when I work with a custom form. So far, none of my teammates have had any
ideas, so of course I turn to you By the way, this is not directly related to personalizations - I just wasn't sure where
else I could post this.
When I have a custom form open, I may want to look at some properties of the form. So I go to Help -> Diagnostics ->
Properties -> Item. When the properties window opens, it takes the exact shape of the custom form (i.e., its height and
width). This can become a hassle for the user, since parts of the properties form can be cut off by the dimensions of
the custom form (for example, items below the Object 1 and Object 2 drop downs may not be visible). Some kind of
inheritance is occurring and I'm hoping to stop it from happening.
If you have encountered this issue, could you tell me how I can stop it from happening?
Regards,
Rick
How to retrive Profile values in form personalization.

written by Ashish , October 08, 2008
hi Anil Passi,
For few days I am experimenting on Forms Personalization. My requirement is in AP, for a particular Responsibility,
Invoices Form should only display few invoices, the display criteria is Context (ATTRIBUTE_CATEGORY) field which
is configured for DFF. If this field contains some specific char, say 'CAPS' then only display those invoices.
For this I have setup a Profile option called, 'TEST_CAPS' and attached it to a responsibility.
I am trying to compare this in the form personalization. Things I am doing are:
In Action tab Object Type: Block

Target Object: INV_SUM_FOLDER
Property Name: Default_WHERE
In Values I want to compare the above mentioned profile ($PROFILES$.TEST_CAPS) to attribute_category.
But since I am not aware of SPEL I am finding it difficult to retrieve this profile value.
I tried: =${$PROFILES$.TEST_CAPS} but it is giving me an error.
For testing I have directly compared VENDOR_NAME to a existing VENDOR and form is displaying only that vendors
invoices.
But when I am trying to compare it to profile value somehow I am not able to get the profile value to compare. I am not
sure on how to extract data from profile in the SPEL (for form personalization)
I have confirmed that value is coming in the profile value, as I have used it in defining a VALUE SET, and it is getting
reflected in it.
it would be great if you could help me in finding a solution for this issue
Many thanks
Ashish
...
Hi Ashish
You can simply make your personalizations applicable to a specific set of Responsibilities.
Hence you do not need a profile option in the first place

Passing a literal argument to FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST

written by ZIA , December 01, 2008
Dear Anil,
I tried what you suggested in the previous posting like I want to pass user_id to FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST
as $PROFILES$.USER_ID.value but it didn't work.
Now I am going for a different approach. I have written another procedure an called
FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST in it and call that procedure from Form Personalization and hardcoded the user
id.
The question is how can I pass a literal argument to my proceudre in form personalization which in turn calls
FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST.
I am calling the procedure in Form personalization as follows:
= 'declare
v_field_value NUMBER;
begin
XX_SUBMIT_JOURNAL_REPORT('''||${item.HEADER.BATCH_NAME.value}||''');
end'
My database procedure XX_SUBMIT_JOURNAL_REPORT calls FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST as follows:
request_id := fnd_request.submit_request(application => 'SQLGL'

, program => 'GLGENJRN2'
, description => NULL
,start_time => NULL
,sub_request => FALSE
, argument1 => 1061
, argument2 => 'L'
, argument3 => 'U'
, argument4 => 'USD'
, argument5 => 1
, argument6 => NULL
, argument7 => NULL
, argument8 => NULL
, argument9 => NULL
, argument10 => B_NAME
, argument11 => 180
);
How can I achive this objective?

Why was forms personalization introduced by Oracle in 11.5.10?

Does Forms Personalization replace CUSTOM.pll?

How do I enable Forms Personalizations?

What are the various components of Forms Personalizations?

What does the Action Tab do?

Can I call a PL/SQL Stored procedure passing it form field variables?

Can I call BuiltIn's?

Processing can be aborted if validation were to fail

You can invoke equivalent to app_item_property.set_property.

You can assign values to form fields using global variable.

Ditto for Order by Clause on block.

In the below picture, I am checking if local variable is 0 then display a message.
