Question: What is value set?
Answer: It is a set of values
Question: Why do we need value sets?
Answer: You do not always want a user to enter junk free text into all the fields. Hence, Oracle Apps uses value set to validate that correct data is being entered in the fields in screen.
Question: Is value set attached to all the fields that require validations?
Answer : A big NO
Question: Then where lies the usage of value sets?
Answer: Broadly speaking, value sets are attached to segments in Flexfields. You can argue that value sets are also attached to parameters of concurrent program(but in reality oracle treats parameters as Descriptive Flexfields)
Question: This is insane, flexfields haven’t been covered in http://getappstraining.blogspot.com as yet?
Answer: Agreed, hence let’s restrict value set explanation to their usage in concurrent program parameters.
Question: Any examples?
Answer: For the namesake, lets add a Parameter to the concurrent program that we defined in “Concurrent Program Training Lesson link”. Lets add a parameter named “cost centre”, the values to this parameter must be restricted to one of the three values, i.e. HR, SEC, IT.
At the time of submission of the concurrent program the user should be able to pick a cost centre from a list. This is where value set gets used.
Lets now define a simple value set as described above.
Step 1. Go to Application Developer, and select menu /Validation/Set

Step 2. Now define a value set of type Independent. We will cover the other most widely used Type “Table” latter.

Step 3. Now, lets add three independent values to the value set for this Cost Centre list. Hence click on menu Values within Validation

Step 4. Here we add the values for IT, HR, SEC to this independent value set.

“CONTROL-S” to save the data
Step 5. Now let us go back to Concurrent Program that we created in earlier training lesson and Click on Parameters

Step 6. Now lets create a parameter, and attach the value set that we created to this parameter.

Step 7.
Now to test this, lets go to receivables manager and click on Requests.

Click on Request,
Step 8.
Submit New Request, and then click on OK.

Step 9
Now, we can see the values defined in the value set here.

Hi Reddy,
The rules of the game are the same weather in UK or US or in India.
The best way to pass interviews is to impress them with your knowledge. To that effect you must do as much reading as possible. The interview questions are there to help you with some ideas. However the ingredient for guaranteed success is your knowledge.

When you submit a concurrent program to run, Oracle lets you enter values into its Parameters.
This happens becasue Oracle pops-up a small window that contains all the parameters for the concurrent program being submitted.
That pop-up wnidow is nothing but a descriptive flexfield screen.
Not much emphasis is needed on this topic, as Conc program parameters being Descriptive Flexfields is something that gets taken care of internally by Oracle.

Certanily you can.
If your filteration is based on profile option, then I suggest neatest way would be to create a database view which performs the filteration of data[based on profile option etc]. You can then use the database view in the SQL Query of table type value set.

Comment: Hi Anil Again very good stuff. Just few queries : from where can I read in detail about all the types of value sets?? Oracle Documentation???. I have access to dev environment and know how to create dependent and independent value set but would like to try my hands on other types as well. Also, is it possible to restrict the values of the value set based on Organization (other than the Business Group). Suppose I have two Org under by BG - Org A, and Org B. Both the Orgs have their own Functions (e.g - IT & Technical in Org A) and (HR & Sales in Org B). While creating the position which uses Functions as one of the value sets, is it possible to restrict the value sets based on the Organization if I am using security profile based on Organizations?

Hi Mayank
The steps when using View for Table Type Value set are exactly the same as that for creating VS of table type on table.
Instead of table name , you will specify view name in table name field

Hi Saily
I am afraid, by standard practice, you will only pass one value per valueset.
Yes, you can indeed concatenate strings with a delimiter to pass multiple values in one parameter....however there is no reason to take such approach. Please define one parameter per value being passed to concurrent program

When i am submitting my request then in the Parameter window, if i enter 12.35 then program accept as it is but if i enter 12.356 then it shows an error message stating that U CAN ENTER UPTO 2 DECIMAL VALUES.
OR
After 2 decimal point, it will not allow us to enter any value.
Is it possible with value set?

Custom Message not displaying when validated from Valueset Special
written by Ram Babu , October 08, 2007
written by Ram Babu , October 08, 2007
Hi Anil,
I followed the steps:
1)From Message Form created message with language US, type ERROR, Message Text and submitted concurrent program Generate Messages.
2)Called this message through a valueset-type Special and event:validate with conditions.
3)Assigned this valueset to a concurrent program parameters to validate.
4) bounced the apache server.
Issue is the Message Name is not calling the actual message text from message form, instead displaying Message Name at runtime.
eg: fnd_message.set_name('ONT','TEST_MSG');
fnd_message.raise_error;
Showing message TEST_MSG at runtime instead of actual message text.
please suggest how to overcome from the issue.
thanks in advance,
Ram

First of all, thanx for such an informative article n u guys rock.
well, I am in a situation where i need only distinct values from a column in my value set and i dont want to create a view for it. How do i go about it? I checked some other forums and they mentioned to add a select statement with distinct in the Table Name field, but that somehow didnt seem to work very well.. is there any other way to do so and if not may be i am doing something wrong while entering the select statement. whatever the case may be, i would greatly appreciate if you can throw some light to it.

Help needed in selecting distinct values in a Value set

written by Sandip Jadhav , December 15, 2007
Hi Pradip,
This is regarding distinct values in LOV.
At the time of creating LOV, in table name write query like this e.g. (SELECT DISTINCT element_name,reporting_name FROM PAY_ELEMENT_TYPES_F_TL) A.
Then in Name and ID, select values like this - A.element_name, A.reporting_name
Write in where clause if u need.

This is regarding distinct values in LOV.
At the time of creating LOV, in table name write query like this e.g. (SELECT DISTINCT element_name,reporting_name FROM PAY_ELEMENT_TYPES_F_TL) A.
Then in Name and ID, select values like this - A.element_name, A.reporting_name
Write in where clause if u need.
Save it.
This will work.

dynamic report parameter
written by saurav , March 13, 2008
written by saurav , March 13, 2008
I have 2 parameters.
1)1st parameter has independent value set and it will have only 2 possible values 'week' or 'month'. My 1st value set name is xx_period_type
2)2nd parameter has value set which should display the
'weekno-year'of last 5 years if parameter1 value passed is 'week'.
3)2nd parameter value set should display the 'month-year' of last 5 years if parameter1 value passed is 'month'.
My code for 2nd list of value is :-
(SELECT DECODE(:parameter1,'week',(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE -((LEVEL-1)*7) ,'ww-YYYY')),TO_CHAR(ADD_MONTHS(SYSDATE,-LEVEL 1),'Month-YYYY')) week_month FROM dual CONNECT BY LEVEL< DECODE(:parameter1,'week',52,12))
This code is working fine from sqlplus on oracle client and even if I hardcode 'week'at the place of :parameter1 the value set is working fine in concurrent program,but
when I used :$FLEX$.xx_period_type at the place of :parameter1
it is giving error APP-FND-00005:INCORRECT ARGUMENTS WERE PASSED TO USER EXIT #MESSAGE_TOKEN in value set.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have a query: When using a dependent value set in a DFF field, how does the application decide, which is the field that contains the indepdendent value set?
For examle consider a DFF where I have four fields - COUNTRY1, COUNTRY2, COUNTRY3, and CITY.
The first three fields are all attached to the same independent valueset COUNTRY_VS.
The fourth field CITY is attached to a dependent valueset CITY_VS, which is dependent on COUNTRY_VS.
I want the CITY field to get populated on the basis of the value entered in COUNTRY2.
How can this be achieved? How will the application know that it has to check the data entered in COUNTRY2, and not COUNTRY1 or COUNTRY3?
Thanks in advance.

Vivek S.

Enable/disable a parameter based on the other parameter in concurrent prog
written by austin , April 30, 2010
written by austin , April 30, 2010
I have two parameters in the concurrent program say par1 and par2 with value sets parset1 and parset2 respectively
both being table type value sets.
Both parameters have to be enabled while running program and if i give value to par1 the parset2 should be updated according to the value chosen.
I used :$FLEX$.parset1 in WHERE clause of parset2 but due to that par2 is grayed out while running the prog and its enabled only if par1 is given value.
Provide solution ASAP.Thnx in advance
