Want to pass parameter to List of Values without depending on another LOV.

shafiq.dacca Public · Jun 12 2023

Idea Summary
Application 112500 > Shared Components > Lists of Values

Use Case
While we use predefined List Of Values from the shared component, we can't pass parameters to the LOV, we have to depend on another LOV. 

If we create another LOV, this increase the page items, and could not pass parameters while calling the LOV. 

Preferred Solution (Optional)
It will be easy if we can add parameters while calling the LOV.

This request is likely a duplicate of FR-2755.

    I like to add my support to this feature.  This is not about a child LOV depending on the value from the parent LOV.  This is about reusing the LOV.  In my use case, I may have a LOV that lists a specific issue list.  If I have a parameter that I can use to feed into the LOV and then simply map my page item value to the LOV parameter, then when the user click on the LOV in different pages, I can re-use the same LOV.

    Currently, I have to define a Page specific LOV so that I can have a query that has the where clause that looks like:

    WHERE field = <Page item name such as :P1_VALUE>;

    If the LOV can be parameterized, I will write the where clause like the following:

    WHERE field = <LOV_Parameter_1>

    And then when you add the LOV to the page, whichever page, I can then map my Page Item to the LOV_Parameter_1 to pass value into it.
