Fields in the Set Attribute Details Page Field LOV Types Description 13-6 Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrators Guide for Oracle Identity Manager By Query The LOV Code and LOV Options fields are not displayed. Instead, the following fields are displayed: - LOV Query: In this field, you can specify any SQL query that is valid in the Oracle Identity Manager database schema. - LOV Column to Display: This is a list showing all the columns from the select query. The selected column values are available on clicking a search icon on the pages for creating or modifying the user entity. For example, you might want to display Manager Name instead of Manager Key. - LOV Column to Save: This is a list showing all columns from the select query. The selected column value is the one that is saved in the backend store when the user makes a selection in the dropdown available on the pages for creating or modifying the user entity. For example, you can display Manager Name, but want to save Manager Key value. Note: Oracle Identity Manager represents sets by using two tables, the LKU and LKV tables. The LKU table holds keys that identify each set. The LKV table defines the members of each set, in which each row in the LKV table uses one column to identify the set a LKU_KEY column in the LKU table, and another column to declare a value that will be a member of that set. A list of values is already defined in the LKU and LKV tables in the database. For administrator specified, the user must specify an LOV code. This is stored in the LKU table. Associated with each code are the list of values. The user must add new values here. These values are stored in the LKV table and are used as this attributes LOV values. For system generated, the user can search for LOV codes, and then select a code. Values already exist for this code in the LKV table and are used as this attributes LOV values. See LKU and LKV Table Definitions on page 13-10 for the list of columns in the LKU and LKV tables. The following is an example of setting the By Query LOV type: 1. Select By Query as the LOV Type. 2. In the LOV Query field, enter SELECT USR_FIRST_NAME as FirstName , USR_LOGIN as UserLogin FROM USR WHERE USR_STATUS = Active. 3. In the LOV Column to Display list, select FIRSTNAME. 4. In the LOV Column to Save list, select USERLOGIN and click Next, and complete the rest of the steps in the wizard as described in this section. After saving the attribute, a search icon against this attribute is displayed in the user details page. The user can search and select value for the attribute. FIRSTNAME is displayed in the user details page and USERLOGIN is saved in the backend store. LOV Code This is the code to identify the LOV. For system-generated LOV, this value must be of an existing LOV code. Note: The LoV Code, LOV Options, and LOV Options Description fields are displayed only when Display Type is selected as List Of Values. For other display types, these fields are not displayed. LOV Options This is displayed only if the LOV Type is administrator specified. The user must specify the LOV values here. LOV Options Description These are the descriptive LOV options.
