When trying to use &IBIC_user , I can get it to evaluate correctly when running in Dev Stu, but when I use the exact same code within Dashboard it gives me (FOC295) A VALUE IS MISSING FOR: IBIC_user

-SET &IB_USER = &IBIC_user ;
-TYPE &IB_USER

Is there a setting for MR/Dashboard that I need to know about?

IBIC_user is the HTTP request parameter. If you would like to use it within a focexec, you could do the following settings:

• put the following lines into the site.wfs configuration file (located in IBI_HOME/client53/wfc/etc):
  <set>IBIC_user(PASS)
  
• restart the web server (or reload the ibi_apps web application)
  

After that, you will have the &IBIC_user amper variable in fex procedures, containing the value of the IBIC_user request parameter.
(I suppose, that in your current configuration you have the <set>... settings (or equivalent) configured within DevStudio, but not in the web client configuration)

Hope this helps

Thanks Grzegorz, site.wfs already has the entry....
IBI_REPORT_USER=&REMOTE_USER
<SET> IBIC_user(PASS)

I can get the value for IBIC_user later on in some processes within Fex's but not at this specific point within the process.

? what version of WebFocus are you running.

If It's 5.3x definitely make your changes in the Administrator and not manually. It seems to cause problems when you do it the old fashioned way in 5.3.

There does seem to be something weird in 5.3 when trying to pass reserved variables. Try setting it to something else and pass that.

IB_user=&IBIC_user
<set>IB_user (pass)

Thanks guys for your input.
Tried re-defining the variable but still couldn't
find IBIC_user.
Running WF 527 but DevStu is 526.

If you're redefining the variable using my previous suggestion, your fex would then be looking for &IB_user not &IBIC_user.

One more thing. If IBIC_user is passing blanks or nulls to IB_user then maybe security is turned off.

Security is OFF
