ependent Parameters in Oracle Applications
Requirement:
Say there is a concurrent program that lets you retrieve employee details based on employee name or employee number.
The concurrent program has 3 parameters:
1.Search Criteria is a value set containing “Employee Name” and “Employee Number” as values
2.Employee Name
3.Employee Number
When the user wants to search employee based on Employee number, he selects Employee Number in the parameter “Search Criteria”.
Automatically Employee name parameter should be disabled so that user can enter only number in the parameter Employee number to search that employee.
Similarly if the users wants to to search employee based on Employee name, Employee number parameter should be disabled thus preventing the users to search based on Employee number.
As seen in the above screenshot, say there is a Concurrent program which has 3 parameters defined:
1. Select Parameter to Disable
2. Parameter – 1
3. Parameter – 2
And Parameter “Select Parameter to Disable” is a value set that has values –
PARAM-1, PARAM-2
The requirement here is if the user selects PARAM-1 as the value for the parameter “Select Parameter to Disable”, then the Parameter “Parameter – 1” should be disabled meaning the user should not be able to enter any information for that parameter.
If user selects PARAM-2 as the value for the parameter “Select Parameter to Disable”, then the Parameter “Parameter – 2” should be disabled.
Steps to implement the above requirement:
