Displaying descriptive flexfield reports

A flexfield is a field made up of sub-fields or segments. A flexfield appears on your form as a pop-up window that contains a prompt for each segment. Each segment has a name and a set of valid values. There are two types of flexfields: key flexfields and descriptive flexfields.

The PATROL KM reports on flexfields used in the selected Oracle Applications module. The KM prompts you to select application modules from a sorted list. For flexfields used in the selected application modules, this report displays the following information:

• application abbreviation
• flexfield name
• code
• application table name
• structure name
• segment name
• table column
• value set name

To display a descriptive flexfield report

1. From the applicationID window, right-click the AOL icon.
2. From the KM Commands menu, select the System Report > Descriptive Flexfield Report menu command. The Select Application Module dialog box appears.
3. Select an application module from the list and click Accept. The Descriptive Flexfield Report appears, which displays the flexfields defined for the selected application module.
