Problem

Tbl_Items
Col_Item_Balance
Col_Item_ReOrderPoint

I want that when ever “Col_Item_Balance” become less then “Col_Item_ReOrderPoint” the system will show the notification by any mean to inform user.

In the when-validate-item trigger associated with the 'number of items purchased' fetch the information from the database, do the maths, and, if necessary, issue a message (but don't do a raise form_trigger_failure).

You will update the 'Col_Item_Balance' in another trigger.

Thanks Dj Martin

On another forum “David Aldridge” advise to make report on condition where (Col_Item_Balance < Col_Item_ReOrderPoint). This is most easy / simple and most record providing one.

But in the mean time my wishes proceeds.

I think ok I will develop above report but in addition I want that when ever (Col_Item_Balance < Col_Item_ReOrderPoint) a print come out of the printer.

Like (Item ABC reached below 55 packs).

Now will you please advise me how to take a print when even (Col_Item_Balance < Col_Item_ReOrderPoint).

Why not send an email from a database trigger? Printing reports 'sux'. Look at utl_smtp.

Yes sending email is great functionality of any system but such efficiency is not my requirement at them moment.

In my system circumstances a (Col_Item_Balance < Col_Item_ReOrderPoint) report to see at any time + a printed page for reminder is dreamed solution to maintain stock record.

So can you help me?

Okay ... tell me the version of forms and reports that you are using, whether it is C/S or n-tier, versions of front end system, middle level system, and backend system.

Different solutions to different configurations.

Go to http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/forms.html. Find 'Form Builder Reference'. Download it and search for 'run_report'.

There are numerous examples on how to launch your report.
