Primefaces valueChangeListener or

by

If you want to use valueChangeListener, you need to submit the form every time a new option is chosen. Something like this:

<p:selectOneMenu value="#{mymb.employee}" onchange="submit()"
                 valueChangeListener="#{mymb.handleChange}" >
    <f:selectItems value="#{mymb.employeesList}" var="emp"
                   itemLabel="#{emp.employeeName}" itemValue="#{emp.employeeID}" />
</p:selectOneMenu>

public void handleChange(ValueChangeEvent event){  
    System.out.println("New value: " + event.getNewValue());
}

Or else, if you want to use <p:ajax>, it should look like this:

<p:selectOneMenu value="#{mymb.employee}" >
    <p:ajax listener="#{mymb.handleChange}" />
    <f:selectItems value="#{mymb.employeesList}" var="emp"
                   itemLabel="#{emp.employeeName}" itemValue="#{emp.employeeID}" />
</p:selectOneMenu>

private String employeeID;

public void handleChange(){  
    System.out.println("New value: " + employee);
}

One thing to note is that in your example code, I saw that the value attribute of your <p:selectOneMenu> is #{mymb.employeesList} which is the same as the value of <f:selectItems>. The value of your <p:selectOneMenu> should be similar to my examples above which point to a single employee, not a list of employees.
