if you create a new dataset, mandatory fields which are not set yet are marked with a wiggly red line.
it seems, that only string-values ( or several fields, but at least no integers ) are marked this way.
if integer-references are used ( 1-based ), the regarding fields are filled with 0 per default which causes the red line to disappear.
is there any way to leave those fields empty per default?
thanks for hints!
For integer and real fields you could set the ShowZero property to No (on the control or extended data type). Then zero values will appear with a red wave line.
For new base enums leave a blank zero enum value (by convention name it None).
Dynamics Ax does not have an "null" concept for fields. It uses some "zero" values for all data types - so you need to use some other NoYes field to express what you want if 0 is not empty

Creating a form with no values and would like the input field to default to empty for two reasons:
Want users to be able to see the placeholder text.
Having a default number means the users can ignore the field by default. (I know I can validate the field, but that is just a bad user experience.)
The problem:
el-input-number fields default to a number (0 or whatever the :min value is set to).
This covers up the placeholder text.
The users can click save with the default number still in place. (I will validate, but don't want users to have to submit a bad value to know what to do.)
Does anyone know how to make the input field have the default value be just empty?
just give it a default value of undefined

I have two Shape Data rows for a Shape's ShapeSheet:
Shape Data Label Prompt Type Format Value Invisible
Prop.Type "Type" "" 4 "Alpha;Beta;Gamma;Delta;Epsilon;Zeta;Eta;Theta;Iota;Kappa" INDEX(4,Prop.Type.Format) False
Prop.Abbrev "Abbrev" No Formula 4 "A;B;G;D;E;Z;E;T;I;K" INDEX(4,Prop.Abbrev.Format) True
The way I intent to use this is to have the user select the Type, say Epsilon, and then have the Abbrev automatically switch to the corresponding value in the Prop.Abbrev.Format.
Note: the values used here are placeholders for the actual values for my application, which are not shown here so they don't distract from the real answer I need, how to keep the selections in sync when the first one is chosen or changed.
Thanks for any help you can give!
I don't have Visio on this machine, so I am unable to copy and paste a working solution. The approach gets a little complicated, but extremely flexible.
Save your lists in the User section, rather than Prop - this then becomes underlying data for use in properties. If you are using a master stencil then this also helps with managing the fields.
You can now store an index in your data as well - this index points to the appropriate values in your arrays. You can use Actions and side menus to set the index which, when referenced properly, means you can have the full name and/or abbreviation in the side menu and the ShapeSheet does all the work underneath.
The functions you want to look at are:
Index (e.g. INDEX(1,User.Type) will return "Beta". (0-based)
Lookup (e.g. LOOKUP("D", User.Abbrev) will return "3". (0-based)
GetAtRef
SetAtRef
SetAtRefExpr
SetF
I had a similar business problem which relied on setting a background colour based on the value of shape data. Your final solution could end up including formulas like this: =SETF(GetRef(Prop.Type),"GUARD(INDEX(LOOKUP(Prop.X,Prop.X.Format),User.Type))").

In my report I have a string field with some numeric value, for example 123102,6. I would like to display 123 102,60 in my report.
Formatting numbers is a bugger in Java in general but gets even trickier with Jasper.
If your report works with a Locale that provides the space as the number group separator (like, for example, Locale.FRANCE does), then all you need to do is specify #,##0.00 as the value of the Pattern property of your field.
If that is not the case, or you are using several Locales, or you are resolving them at runtime, then the simplest way to solve your problem is to provide this:
new DecimalFormat("#,##0.00", DecimalFormatSymbols.getInstance(Locale.FRANCE))
.format(Double.valueOf($F{your_field_name}))
as the value of the Text Field Expression property of your field.
I'm having problem with JasperReports report by getting sum of two fields.
I have created so far variables that holds fields "TareWeight" variable that is casting values from double to float
new Float($F{EquipmentTareWeightKg})
"CargoWt" variable that is casting from string to float, etc...
Float.parseFloat($F{UfvFlexString03})+Float.parseFloat($F{UfvFlexString04})
So now I have two variables which I can manipulate with.
The problem starts when I wish to do a "recap" using crosstab. I have setup two groups that is done with wizard, and added another in crosstab. (please refer to the printscreen below)
And now, I have created under measures SumOf Tare that is using variable TareWt, and SumOfCargoWt that is using variable CargoWt.
I have tried to create another Measure SumOfGrossWt that would do a sum of variables TareWt + CargoWt but I have got some nonsense values.
I have tried to do another approach by creating variable GrossWt that would basically do exact the same thing as previous attempt
$V{Tare}+$V{CargoWt}
or use an variable: GrossWt
$V{Tare}+$V{CargoWt} or new Float($F{EquipmentTareWeightKg})+(Float.parseFloat($F{UfvFlexString03})+Float.parseFloat($F{UfvFlexString04}))
None of these actually worked: (Sum should be done by "Sum Of Tare"+ "Sum of CargoWt" = "Sum of GrossWt") plese refer to the second picture.
Here is a complete jrxml code/file:
jrxml file
save it as *.jrxml
Can please someone help me find a solution? how can I sum those two measure fields and get correct values?
Since CargoWt field had some null values in database, addition float value with null is equal to null, so the only value which was displayed on report are the one that had values for CargoWt, all others with null value were "ignored".
Is there any way to set a default value to a field in a report? I have a lot of String fields in a report and would like them to display "0,00" when they're null.
Supposing the field name is "value", in the "Text Field Expression", write:
($F{value} != null) ? $F{value} : "0.00"
You can also select "Blank when null" in the properties of the text field if you want that. Other options are more flexible but this does the trick very quick and easy.
medopal's answer is good, but 2 additions:
1) You can make the syntax shorter:
($F{field_name}) ? $F{field_name} : "0.00"
2) Make sure your "else" data is of the same class as the field's value, otherwise you'll get errors when it tries to coerce numbers into string, etc. etc. This was something that, as I started out, I mixed up.
Did you try set a pattern in the text field?
If you are using iReport this can be found in the properties for the text field in the Text Field Properties section.
Try something along the lines of ###0.00 to represent 1234.56, which would always display 0.00 even if it is null.
This is the easiest way is to use Coalesce() or NVL() function of database in your data-source query to restrict null data on your report.
But it depends on if you are allowed to change the datasource query or not. If not then you can go for other solutions provided in previous answers.
