VISUAL FORCE HOW TO GET Owner FIELD ON VISUAL FORCE PAGE

>>

>>

 I WANT TO DISPLAY MY OWNER FIELD ON VISUAL FORCE FIELD.

 

Example:

 

I HAVE UNIVERSITIES__C CUSTOME OBJECT OWNER IS SIVASANKAR ADMIN

 

 

I'm unable to display my woner field on the visual force page

 

<apex:inputField value=" {!Universities__c.owner} "/>

 

OR

 

<apex:outputField value="{!Universities__C.Owner}"/>

Owner is the related record, you need to bind the field itself, which is the id.  E.g.

 

<apex:inputField value=" {!Universities__c.ownerid} "/>
 
 
<apex:outputField value="{!Universities__C.Ownerid}"/>

How are you retrieving the record?  Are you using a standard controller or a custom controller?

i'm Using standard Controller

Hi

 

If you're using a standardcontroller then the owner.name will work.

 

I just tried this:

 

<apex:page standardController = "Case">
<apex:outputField value="{!Case.Owner.Name}"/></br>
<b>without the outputField attribute : </b>{!Case.Owner.Name}
</apex:page>

 

I get the results as expected i.e.,

 

Owner Name

Owner Name

 

I am not sure why its not working for you.

 

Thanks

Sam

Thanks Sir,

 

 

Go to ACCOUNT object --->NEW

 

Hear You can see the field Name like Account Owner Sivasankar Admin

 

I'm using Standard Controller

 

When i try to get ownerid like this 

<apex:outputfield value="{!Account.Ownerid}"/>

 

I got the output like this  Account Owner blank space 

 

<apex:outputfield value="{!Account.Owner.name}"/>

 

I got the output like this  Name blank space 

 

 

But

       i want the output as Account Owner Sivasankar Admin

 

 

please suggest me...

I have used this code in my VF page and its working....


<apex:page standardcontroller="objName__c">
<apex:outputField value="{!objName__c.Ownerid}"/>
</apex:page>

I guess there might be something missing kindly check it again.
OR
delete the page and try with a new page

How are you accessing the page?  When using a standard controller you have to pass the id of the account you are accessing as a URL parameter, something like:

 

https://kab-tutorial.na6.visual.force.com/apex/AccountOwner?id=0018000000iAiZS

 

if you leave the id blank you will get a new, uninserted record with no owner and thus the field will be null.

Hi - I am trying to do something similar - to link the Case Owner Name in a table column (where the table contains all the cases belonging to this account).  I tried to follow the advice in this thread, but do not quite have it right yet.  Here's my code - any tips where I am going wrong?  Thanks!

<apex:column >                   
                    <apex:facet name="header">  
                        <apex:commandLink target="_self" action="{!ViewData}" value="Case Owner{!IF(sortExpression=='OwnerId',IF(sortDirection='ASC','▼','▲'),'')}" >
                            <apex:param value="OwnerId" name="column" assignTo="{!sortExpression}" ></apex:param>
                            <apex:param value="cases" assignTo="{!sortObject}" ></apex:param>
                        </apex:commandLink>
                    </apex:facet>
                    <apex:outputLink value="{!URLFOR($Action.Case.View, ca.Id)}" target="_blank">
                        <apex:outputText value="{!ca.Owner.Name}" />  //Made a change here to use Name.  Needs more changes. This alone causes Loading timer to spin.
                    </apex:outputLink>
                </apex:column>

Never mind, I figured it out.  I switched to the following and it worked fine:
<apex:column value="{!ca.OwnerId}">
                    <apex:facet name="header">  
                        <apex:commandLink target="_self" action="{!ViewData}" value="Case Owner {!IF(sortExpression=='OwnerId',IF(sortDirection='ASC','▼','▲'),'')}" >
                            <apex:param value="{!ca.Owner.Name}"  name="column" assignTo="{!sortExpression}" ></apex:param>
                            <apex:param value="cases" assignTo="{!sortObject}" ></apex:param>
                        </apex:commandLink>
                    </apex:facet>
                </apex:column>

Hi SIVASASNKAR I'm having the same problem. I only see Owner and blank space and Name and blank space. How did you solve it?

Hi all.
It will work when you pass id of account's record in URL as https://c.ap6.visual.force.com/apex/pageName?id=<record id>
  
<apex:page showHeader="false" standardController="Account">
     <apex:form >
         <apex:pageBlock >
         <apex:pageBlockSection >
             <apex:outputField value="{!Account.ownerId}"/>
         
         </apex:pageBlockSection>
             
            
         
         </apex:pageBlock>
     </apex:form>
</apex:page>
