How to change a LOV query Using Forms Personalization
We can change the LOV query using form personalization. Sample provided below (Payment form).
Requirement:
We have to change the “type” field lov query for populating the custom values.
To achieve this we have to follow below process.
Step-1:
Login into application and switch the Payable Manager Responsibility .
Nav->Payment->Entry->Payments.
Consider the TYPE field (PAY_SUM_FOLDER. PAYMENT_TYPE)
Here Type LOV currently shows 3 values . Instead we have the requirement to populate these values in the
LOV. (Manual, Netting, Payment Process Request, Quick, Refund).
Step-2: Identify the form .fmb name (NAV:- Help->about oracle Applications)
Step-3:
Connect to application server and download the .fmb (APXPAWKB.fmb).
Open the form in form builder and check the LOV name for “type” field.
Step-4: Check the record group for attached LOV and take the sql statement.
(select displayed_field, lookup_code from ap_lookup_codes where lookup_type = 'PAYMENT TYPE' and
lookup_code not in ('A','N') order by upper(displayed_field))
Step-5: Go to the payment form in application and navigate to form personalization form .
Nav:- help->Diagnostics-> Custom code ->Personalize
