I am using J Developer 12 c. I want to create form but without any data fetched in.I want user to enter detail in form for submission.I have tried all online solution but they are for J Developer 11.I am not able to fetch an empty form.
When I run my form it automatically fetch record from the table.I have tried use create insert but i want form to be automatically fetched with new record every time page is run.
Add a CreateInsert action in your task flow on the way into you page. This will clear the fields for data entry. Look here.
You need to understand the difference between commit and submit. You want to submit the pages - clicking a submit button - and then the page is processed and the EO/VOs are updated in memory.
The Commit operation writes the in-memory changes to the datasource (database). So, you can submit pages 1-3 then using the same data control the fields will be populated with the entered data on page 4. Now the user can commit the changes. The Commit action is located in the operations for the AppModule-DataControl.
This is the power of the ADF Data Control. Changes to fields are cached in memory and are available to any page and then those changes can be committed when you choose. Note, the Task Flow can control the transaction itself.
Sounds like you need to learn the basics of ADF. I suggest this book and this set of resources I maintain for my students and these.
And, if you will be doing a lot of ADF development, it is well worth your time to take our ADF course.
(It also seems you are unaware of how stack overflow works. When you get an response that answers you question, you up-vote the answer, so it encourages those of us taking our time to answer you question for free to continue doing so. Please note that I answered your original question and Shay reinforced that answer.
And I have now answered your second question, and provided links to resources to help you go further.
I already marked the correct answer however my second question where i was unable to commit on review page which fetch data from 3 vo i got solution thanks to http://www.baigzeeshan.com/2010/11/avoiding-jbo-26048-during-commit-in.html.Actually the first Eo is master for rest 2 Eo so it would ideally allow me to commit detail data only after i commit the master.Now i found the blog and it suggested me to do changes in association and add behaviour for composite association and cascade update for key attribute.Now i can directly commit on my last review page and navigate through task flow easily without using commit on eac individual page.thanks all who helped me.

I have a field on one of my base page types which I need to update programmatically from an external data feed, so that it can be included in my Smart Search index.
The documents are versioned, but I want to update the published value of this field regardless of checkout state, and obviously avoid any sort of overwrite when documents are checked in.
The field will not appear on the editor form -- or ideally, would conditionally display for Global Admins.
It appears that using the API to update the document without doing a CheckOut fails silently. However if I do a Checkout/Update/CheckIn on a checkout-out page, the author will lose their work I assume?
Any way to handle this "versionless" field via the Kentico data model and API?
I don't think there is a way around updating checked out pages. You can update the page type table directly, but as you mentioned, it will be overwritten when they check in. You could update the version history I believe to make changes to the current data that is checked out, but again, I think that will be lost if the user cancels.
The only way I can think of to solve your issue is to create another table that maps the values you want to the page. Then you don't have to worry about the pages being checked out, you just need to grab the documentID or something. Since the value isn't displayed to the editor, you just have a field that does a lookup on this table.
The preferred and right way is using the API but as you stated, it causes problems if a user has something already checked out and working on it or it's in workflow and not published yet.
If the field you're updating is page type specific, there is one thing specifically I can think of and that's going directly to the database to the page type's database field and perform an update to that field.
Note: this is not recommended unless you know specifically what you're doing and have done full testing on it
The down side of going direct to the database is this will not update the current version since you're using check in/out and workflow. You will also need to update the checked out and current version which means you need to:
Go to the Document itself in the cms_documents table and get the document you are working with.
Then using the fields DocumentCheckedOutVersionHistoryID and DocumentPublishedVersionHistoryID' you can get the version history IDs of the document from theCMS_VersionHistory` table.
Then you can perform an update to the CMS_VersionHistory and your custom page type fields.
You will then need to look in the CMS_WorkflowHistory table and find out if that document is in workflow and in what step.
After you have that workflow history step, use the VersionHistoryID field to go back to the CMS_VersionHistory table and update that record with your data.
Again, not an elegant solution since you are using check in/out and workflow but after some trial and error and testing you should be able to figure it out.
UPDATE
You may also be able to add a custom table or some other linked database table which will allow you to create a global handler. The linked table would be where you perform your updates via API and other calls without versioning or workflow. Then when a user updates a specific page type you could do a check to see when the last time that linked table was updated and update the field(s) you need on update of that particular page (of course by node and document IDs).
Unfortunately you'll have to check it in and out with API. See examples here.
Also you might need to publish it in order to reflect changes on the live site.
I want to trigger a NetSuite workflow when the user sets the value of a field, but I don't want to have them submit first. The Workflow state builder looks like it has useful options but I can't get it to work.
There's some useful looking blog posts around but a lot of them seem out of date.
Update - more info
My primary issue is this one: Restrict what customers an employee can see (NetSuite)
The hack I'm currently looking at is populating a custom Transaction Column Field that I've added to a custom Time Recording form. The idea is to load this field on the UI with only valid projects (not customers as well), and this I have been able to do.
The problem is I still (as far as I can tell) still need to populate the "Customer" field, which is mandatory; I'm also assuming that if I don't do that then any time that is recorded won't go against the project. I had thought that if the user selects the project they want then I can populate the customer field with that value. I hate this as an approach but I can't see how else to do it. I do have coding experience (including JavaScript) but haven't made the leap into SuiteScript yet.
You won't be able to do this in a Workflow, as they are currently limited to only work with body level fields and cannot modify Transaction Column Fields (aka sublists).
You should be able to achieve this with a Client Side Script though.
Source (Netsuite login required).
Sublist changes will be available for transactions in the 2018.1 release sometime in Feb/Mar.
I am trying to update an existing activity stream entry e.g. the title of the entry.
Here I found the code for the creation of the new entry:
Link
But I could not find any reference how do I update an existing entry?
Additional information:
I use IBM Connections 4.5 and the IBM SBT
I create the entries with a system user to other users with the flag
'actionable'
Here my questions:
Which URL?
Which Method (PUT?)?
Which Json?
And another question about the actionable flag:
How can I change the actionable flag for an entry of another user? The description for my own entries is described on slide 37 here: Link
Thank you so much !

Ok, I think I fully understand the issue now. As suggested this is not supported, but there is a way you can achieve the same result.
First of all why isn't it supported . . .
Events are a point in time (and they were accurate at that point in time)
A new event on the same object supersedes it (as it's now the most interesting) but
doesn't invalidate it (it can still be seen in history)
The Actionable view does not show a rolled up view, instead it shows all events that are marked actionable (and there may be multiple actions related to any given Object)
What you can do . . .
If you want to replace an entry in the Actionable view, you can remove the event from the actionable view (it is just removed from that view and could still be seen in event history)
You can then add another event to the actionable view (which as the latest event will also supersede events in other rolled up views)
Removing the actionable flag is here ->http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/appdevwiki.nsf/xpDocViewer.xsp?lookupName=IBM+Connections+4.5+API+Documentation#action=openDocument&res_title=Support_for_Saved_and_Actionable_events&content=pdcontent
an activity stream object is treated an an immutable object in IBM Connections.
you can Create Delete and Read.
You can use a rollup-id in IBM Connections.
In order to address the scenario where a user posts a file and 200 people 'like' it, filling up their Activity Stream, rollup needs to be performed. This means:
Only the latest event on any given object is shown
The 2 most recent comments are returned.
http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/appdevwiki.nsf/xpAPIViewer.xsp?lookupName=IBM+Connections+4.0+API+Documentation#action=openDocument&res_title=Support_for_Rollup&content=apicontent
Just to extend the last answer, delete is not directly supported in the Activity Stream in IBM Connections, though a means of propagating delete based on deletion of an Object was introduced in IBM Connections 4.5.
However it does seem like submitting a new event with an appropriate rollup id is what you're looking for. That way users will see the latest, but the history remains and can be seen if desired.
I need to filter a a table with parameters that are calculated on a non related table, but to do this in Access web I need to add the [Project_Id] to the task list.
To clarify further, the user answers some questions regarding the details of a project, which in turn will calculate in the background a group of parameters that are needed to sort a task list.
The problem is the task list is generic and not related to a project so before I can use the project related filter parameters I need to assign a project id to the task list or there is no relationship and no way of knowing what project parameters to use.
I tried to do this with a query but being a Web database I am unable to select the data from the form control.
Hopefully someone can help me find a solution, because I have exhausted Google and my own knowledge on the subject. One last thing I am unable to use code thanks to security issues.
In case anyone is interested I found away to assign the project id to the task list using data macros.
The data macro is assigned to a table that is related to the project and when updated edits the tasks list to add the current project id for each record in the table.
I still have some issues to work around, but in general it does what I need.
I want to link together a fusion table with a form. I will use this for students in a class to indicate when they have completed different exercises. I have read this page:
http://kh-samples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/code/instructions.html
which indicates that it is possible to link forms and a fusion table.
The twist that I would like the students to be able to update their answers on the page without having to hit submit, so they can easily go back and change things as they work. If they have to click submit then they will lose their place which is not what I want.
Any way to do submit the form data as they answer the question, without having to hit submit?
I'm not sure that's going to work with Google Forms and the sync to Fusion Tables.
Something else to look into:
Create a view on a Fusion Table for each student. They can edit their own table to add /edit rows. You can see their answers all aggregated together in the base table.
Here's an article describing how to do that:
http://support.google.com/fusiontables/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2584135
Within the table, they will have a simpler form-like interface for editing the data in a given row. You can check this out yourself in a table you own by going into Experimental, then select a row, and click the pencil icon to edit it.
Hope that provides a useful alternative,
