I created a variable vAverageSalary and an input box which serves as a place to change the value of the variable (variable is defined as money). The problem is that nothing happens when I enter numbers in the input box for the variable. Additionaly when I check the value in the 'Variable Overview' for that varable, I see nothing. Even if I try to define here any value for the variable, nothing changes. And the third option I tried was to define any value by going to the 'Properties' of the input box and entering any value in the 'Settings for the Selected Value' (Tab - 'Constraints'). Even when I enter a value here, nothing happes - the system simply ignores everything I enter.
How can I make an input box to take the value I enter in it?
UPDATE: It seems that the problem is when I define the variable inside the input box as 'Money' - I can only set velue when I type for example '121,00 €'. However if I make a text box and try to write out the value of the variable, I get the message "Error: Garbage after expression ','". The input box takes the values in that format, but the output is garbage. And if I type for example any number without '€' sign, than input box ignores my input and gives me the previous value... Why?

I have a SQL report with two different parameters. The first parameter is hidden, and gets the default value from somewhere else. The second parameter gets default value from the first parameter, and it might return NULL values.
My question is, is it possible to automatically display a message on the report when the second parameter returns NULL values?
If you mean a message dialog (pop-up message) then you cannot do this using the SSRS web portal by default.
If you just want to display some text on the report then you can easily do this.
Add a text box, set the value to whatever text you like, or to an expression if it needs to be more dynamic.
Then set the hidden property of the text box to something like
=IIF(Parameters!myParam.Value = nothing, False, True)
If the parmeter you want to check is multi-value then just reference index 0 to pick up the first entry like this.
=IIF(Parameters!myParam.Value(0) = nothing, False, True)
PICTURE OF QUERY :
I'm plotting graphs for 10 machines (machine 1, machine 2,...) performance -
average vs date graph.
User shall select the machine from a combobox (i made the values obtained from query, or should I make it from the table?) and set it to contain unique values only.
After selecting the machine, user shall click OK button. and a graph of the selected machine should be displayed in a new form.
Problem is, every time I click OK, it prompts me with the ENTER PARAMETER VALUE Forms!ViewReport!Combo9.
After I enter "machine 1" in the ENTER PARAMETER VALUE, it displays the graph correctly. I am expecting the graph to be displayed directly without the error.
The dialog appears because the query has no access to the field Combo9. Probably your form is not open or ViewReport is a subform, in this case, the reference to Combo9 should be different. Check, for instance, this giude for controls references.
But the most reliable method is to create a public function in the standard module, which should return the value from the desired form's field. It can check if the form is open and return the default value if the form is not available or the value is not selected. This function can be used in queries as criteria or in calculated fields.
Snippet
I used this code
driver.findElement(By.xpath("(//input[#type='number'])[1]")).sendKeys("20000");
driver.findElement(By.xpath("(//input[#required='required'])[2]")).sendKeys("3000");
But when it enter value of second textbox the value of first also changes.
After selecting a value in a dropdown listbox field, there is this error message:
Entry is too long for the field
(it's the message number 00092)
I created one text field TXTOPENV as Listbox with key value, set value using VRM_SET_VALUES in PBO section.
Here is the screenshot of screen painter:
Screen flow logic:
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
MODULE status_0210.
ABAP code:
DATA txtopenv TYPE c LENGTH 1.
MODULE status_0210 OUTPUT.
SET PF-STATUS 'ST210'.
SET TITLEBAR 'T210'.
PERFORM GetVacancy.
ENDMODULE.
FORM GetVacancy.
TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_vacancy,
plans TYPE t528t-plans,
plstx TYPE t528t-plstx,
END OF ty_vacancy.
DATA: wa_vacancy TYPE ty_vacancy.
LOOP AT it_vacancyid INTO wa_vacancyid.
SELECT plans plstx
FROM t528t
INTO wa_vacancy
WHERE plans = wa_vacancyid-ty_objid.
ENDSELECT.
field_id = wa_vacancy-ty_plans.
value = wa_vacancy-ty_plstx.
APPEND value TO values.
CLEAR wa_vacancy.
ENDLOOP.
CALL FUNCTION 'VRM_SET_VALUES'
EXPORTING

OTHERS = 2.
ENDFORM.
The error "Entry is too long for the field" is not specifically related to the listbox fields, but may occur with all types of screen fields, so I will first answer the general case, and then explain why you were mistaken .
The error happens when the screen field is defined with a "definition length" which is larger than the length defined for the eponym global variable in the ABAP program (eponym: the name has to be the same so that to allow the transfer of values between screen and program, back and forth), and when the input value is larger than the length of the ABAP program.
In your case, the key of the selected value in the listbox is probably larger than 1 character which is the length of the global variable.
The solution in your case is to set the variable to 8 characters:
DATA txtopenv TYPE t528t-plstx.
NB:
In your screenshot of the listbox field with possible values, only the texts are shown, but you can also display the key value via SAP GUI settings Interaction Design > Visualization 1 > Show keys within dropdown lists.
I made a simple query to return 1 field. One of the fields is the user's input.
Item (input)
Description (return value)
I now want to use the returned value in a simple textbox on the report, but it's giving me a scope error. Makes sense, but how do I tell the textbox which dataset to look in (there are multiple datasets)?
If you right mouse click on the text box you can create a placeholder.
You can then specify the value of this placeholder to be the required value from the dataset.
