Changing Labels for a Single DAC Field Used Multiple Times - acumatica

My scenario involves fetching data from a table that returns multiple results to be displayed. My problem is that when I add the fields on the screen, the labels are all the same. I am pulling notes from 3 different screens onto one screen to display for the user. The notes are from a Sales Order, Customer, and Inventory Item. The data is being pulled correctly for each screen, but the label for each text box is "NoteText." I would like to change these labels to more accurately reflect which screen the note is from.
Thanks.

If I'm understanding your question correctly, you'll want to use a Cache Attached event handler for the fields in question. CacheAttached event handlers allow you to change the attributes of a field within the graph.
[PXUIField(DisplayName = "SO Notes")]
protected void SOOrder_NoteText_CacheAttached(PXCache sender)
{}

This may be specific to my situation, but I found a solution. What I am doing is suppressing the generated titles and customizing RowSelecting() of the DAC to add my own titles within the NoteText based on the note's GraphType parameter. I have all other parameters to filter down to the three notes I would need to display for that specific page. I use the GraphType to insert the text in front of the note to generate my own label for it.

Gravity forms - merging values

Need some help with Gravity forms. I need to have a field, that is a merge of values ,that user has previously selected.
So, if a user has selected 3 different fields wth values of 1)XYY, 2)YYX,3)YYZ I do not need a sum, just a plain merge, in form of XYY.YYX.YYZ, or anything like that.
Could that be acomplised with some merging tags, or dynamically population?
Thanks
Of course;
You should create two different forms.
Collect data with field1-field2-field3, they can be single line text, number, date or anything. In the advanced tab of field settings, write a parameter name for each one, like field1-field2-field3.
In the second form create a single line text, in the advanced tab of field settings check "dynamically populate field" and write your parameters like field1.field2.field3.
In form1 settings->confirmations->redirect URL line, write your form2 page url where you added form2. Select "Pass field data via query string" and add your parameters like field1={fieldname:1}&field2={fieldname:2}&field3={fieldname:3}
When you submit form1, your form2->single line text field will capture the parameters as you wish.
This is possible with Gravity Forms Populate Anything by...
Add whatever type of field you'd like to use to capture the combined.
Set the Default Value to the merge tags of your 3 fields: #{Field A:1}.#{Field B:2}.#{Field C:3}.
That's it.
Edit: Updated screenshot for Gravity Forms 2.5 and updated merge tags to use the # to make them "live".

Xpages Repeat Controls Tabular display

I have a situation wherein I need to display all documents in view. Issue is I need to display multivalued fields (can be achieved by modifying view column to display new line). Now issue comes when a column value is also multivalued. E.g. first column is created by looping through 50 fields (single value) and second column is created by looping through corresponding 50 fields but these fields are multivalued.
I am looking for ideas about how to nest repeats in this case. Issue is in first repeat I get the handle of documents but in nested one i am not able to get this handle to be able to loop through fields. And it is not simply one column or value I want to display, there are 4-5 such columns.
Any ideas are welcome.
Thanks in advance.
You want to start looking at a repeat control, not a view control. Have the outermost control loop through the entries in the view and populate the data source of a containing panel with a Notes document. Then inside the panel you only refer to the inner document data source.

checking if current user is author of the document

I have a formA where I have a field '_author' which is of type Authors/Computed for display with value (#Subset($Updatedby;1)). I display information from formA on viewA. What I want to achieve is that documents that are created by you are only visible to yourself on viewA. I tried the following formula in viewA 'View Selection':
SELECT (form = "formA" & #UserName =_author). Even though I know that these two variables have the same values when I read it from the document's properties, the condition is not satisfied and I do not see a single document. If I delete everything after "&", the view shows all documents.
All is hosted on a server which handles users.
A handy workaround is to create a Page with an embedded view. This view is exactly like your view but has an additional first categorized (!) column with your field _author.
Put into embedded view's property "Show single category" the formula #UserName or #Name([CN]; #UserName) depending on how your categorized column _author is formatted. Show then always the Page instead of the view.
This way you avoid trouble with "Shared, private on first use" views and users see exactly their own documents only.
#UserName works in a special manner in selection formulas in views. In your case the view should be Private on First Use. Read further here: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21089773 .
Be aware that this lead to all sort of issues, e.g. when you update the design of the view users must remove the view manually to get the changes deployed.

Create an outline ( on categories ) contained by a frame - LOTUS NOTES 7

mates! I'm new in programming in lotus notes and I have a question.
I want to create an outline based on categories such as: Sorting people after their names, their birthdate and by their phone number. Could everyone explain me how to do this? Should I create an embedded outline ? This outline should be contain on a frame. Thanks!
Traditionally you would create a frameset that defines the layout of your application's frames, and then set one of those frames to display a page, which in turn contains the outline. The target of the outline frame would be a main frame where you show the views -- the selected outline node defines which view to show.
You need to create several views, one for each "sort by" you described if you want there to be a link to each sorted view. Your outline would then contain entries for each view. As an alternative, you could create just one view and make the column headers allow sorting provided you can show all the necessary columns in one view.

jqGrid Filtering Records

It seems there have been a few questions here regarding this subject, and they have some great answers, but it seems that my case is a little different. I need to filter the records displayed in a jqGrid, but entirely client-side.
For a number of reasons, the best way for me to populate my grid is with an array that's emitted directly into the JavaScript on the page. The grid itself doesn't interact with the server at all. I have some custom AJAX happening in various grid events, but that's it. (Basically, I'm integrating this with an existing set of available services which can't change significantly.)
What I'm looking to do is filter the grid based on a simple text input and button. My page has the text input, the button, and a table (which becomes the grid on document ready). I'd like to bind to the click event of the button (normal jQuery event binding, nothing special) and use the value from the text input as a display filter on the jqGrid.
By "filter" I mean to display only the records which contain a match (in any field) for the text in the input. Then, to display all records, just empty the input and click the button again. Additionally, the grid is multi-select and the selections need to persist through filtering. I just need to be able to hide the rows which don't match what's in the input.
Is this possible?
To filter local grid you should only fill filters property of the postData parameter of jqGrid and set additionally search:true.
To save selection of the grid you can use reloadGrid with additional parameter [{page:1,current:true}] (see here).
The corresponding code can be the following
$("#search").click(function() {
var searchFiler = $("#filter").val(), grid = $("#list"), f;
if (searchFiler.length === 0) {
grid[0].p.search = false;
$.extend(grid[0].p.postData,{filters:""});
}
f = {groupOp:"OR",rules:[]};
f.rules.push({field:"name",op:"cn",data:searchFiler});
f.rules.push({field:"note",op:"cn",data:searchFiler});
grid[0].p.search = true;
$.extend(grid[0].p.postData,{filters:JSON.stringify(f)});
grid.trigger("reloadGrid",[{page:1,current:true}]);
});
I made the demo for you which filter for two columns 'Client' ('name') and 'Notes' ('note') you can extend the code to search in all columns which you need.
Depend on what you exactly mean with the saving row selection you can need to save the current selection from the selarrrow in a variable and restore the selected rows with respect of setSelection method.
