Change number / date format for the user at run time

Hi,
Can I configure a report in Oracle Answers to display a column in a particular format for one group of users and a different format for another group of users?

Hi,
Yes this is possible.
In the BMM layer duplicate column which is to be formatted for different group of users. And pull it into the presentation layer.
Suppose Column 1 for the Group 1 users
and Column 2 for the Group 2 users
In the presentation layer, double click on the column and give permission for the column 1 for the group 1 users and group 2 users for column.
First create a report with all the desired columns with Administrator or Presentation Server Administrator Role. And format the columns according to the different group of users.
In, NQSConfig.ini change the parameter PROJECT_INACCESSIBLE_COLUMN_AS_NULL which is under security section. By default it is set to No. Set it to yes. And restart the services.
Now logon with the group 1 users and you can see only the column1 and when logged on with group 2 users, you can see the column2.
And will solve your problem.
Please let me know if you need step-by-step process for solving.
Please award if you found this useful/helpful

Setting date format for the entire SQL Server installation - SQL Server 2008 R2-2012

Hi,
I need to safeguard the behaviour of SQL codes that inserting into SQL tables with some date columns. For this purpose, I need to change the date format for the SQL instance and not using CONVERT and CAST.
I've seen the SET DATE FORMAT statement, but if I use it, could I solve my problem?
Thanks

The language setting is related to the database user.
BOL: "DEFAULT_LANGUAGE = { NONE | <lcid> | <language name> | <language alias> }
Specifies the default language for the new user. If a default language is specified for the user and the default language of the database is later changed, the users default language remains as specified.
If no default language is specified, the default language for the user will be the default language of the database. If the default language for the user is not specified and the default language of the database is later changed, the default
language of the user will change to the new default language for the database."
LINK: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms173463.aspx
The default language setting can be overridden by SET LANGUAGE for the session:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174398.aspx
Example:
SET LANGUAGE us_english; -- mdy
SELECT CAST ('12/13/2014' as DATE); -- 2014-12-13
GO
SET LANGUAGE british; -- dmy
SELECT CAST ('12/13/2014' as DATE);
GO
(1 row(s) affected)
Changed language setting to British.
Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string.

How to handle Multiple date formats for the same date field in SQL*Loader

Dear All,
I got a requirement where I need to get data from a text file and insert the same into oracle table.
I am using SQL*Loader to populate the data from the text file into my table.
The file has one field where I am expecting date date data in multiple formats, like dd/mon/yyyy, yyyy/dd/mon, yyyy/mon/dd, ,mm/dd/yyyy, mon/dd/yyyy.
While using SQL*Loader, I can see Loading is failing for records where we have formats like yyyy/dd/mon, yyyy/mon/dd, mon/dd/yyyy.
Is there any way in SQL*Loader where we can mention all these date formats so that this date data should go smoothly into the underlying date column in the table.
Appreciate your response on this.
Thanks,
Madhu K.

The point being made was, are you sure that you can uniquely identify a date format from the value you receieve? Are you sure that the data stored is only of a particular limited set of formats?
e.g. if you had a value of '07/08/03' how do you know what format that is?
It could be...
7th August 2003 (thus assuming it's DD/MM/RR format)
or
8th July 2003 (thus assuming it's MM/DD/RR format)
or
3rd August 2007 (thus assuming it's RR/MM/DD format)
or
8th March 2007 (thus assuming it's RR/DD/MM format)
or even more obscurely...
3rd July 2008 (MM/RR/DD)
or
7th March 2008 (DD/RR/MM)
Do you have any information to tell you what formats are valid that would allow you to be specific and know what date format is meant?
This is a classic example of why dates should be stored on the database using DATE datatype and not VARCHAR2. It can lead to corruption of data, especially if the date can be entered in any format a user wishes.

Date Format for the input Variable

Hi all,
I got an issue with Date format we enter in the input variable screen for the BEx Analyzer.
We have given a format of MM/DD/YYYY. But when the users accessed the report, it is not taking the format of the variable i.e MM/DD/YYYY but it is taking the format of the users system.
If the user's system format is DD/MM/YYYY, it is accepting the input inthe same format only.
Why this strange behaviour?
My questions are
Is the input for BEx system specific? or variable specific?
Rgrds
Kumar

Hi,
I think it is user specific... you can maintain the date format for user ....
Go to SU01 transaction or.. Go to SYSTEM -> User Profile -> Own data
Here in defaults tab you can see the date formet for user...
Hope this helps...
Thanks,

In Thunderbird, how do I change the date format for the column display?

I want the date to show as DD-MM-YYYY HH:MM AM/PM. Although this should be really obvious (and I know I've done it in the past), I can't find where to do this and can't find anything in Thunderbird Help on this, not even when I search "Thunderbird, change date format".

Thunderbird usually uses the computer date and time and settings.
I'm using Windows and notice that TB is using the short date format which I set up under Regional & Language Options.
Are you using the International settings or Date/Time settings?
It should pick up the settings from the 'International' or maybe its called now called 'Language & Text' setting.
not sure which of these suits your macbook:

How to use the date format for the given req.?

I have a requirement which should fetch the datas given by user. The user parameter is the date. The date will fetch the amount of the customer code for that particular month based on the date upto given by the user of that financial year.
If the user parameter is given as 200703(YYYYMM) it should fetch the datas of the financial year from 200604(YYYYMM) to 200703(YYYYMM). The logic is the user parameter year should fetch the datas of previous year till the user given date and the month should be also do the same. Please do the needfull oracle experts.
Regards,
Mark

As i am new to oracle i need help from you experts, The year and the month as seperate columns both as different data type as number and varchar2. There is no date column in the table.
Table GTemp:
DIVISION_CODE NUMBER(2)
GL_CODE NUMBER(6)
FINANCIAL_YEAR NUMBER(4)
FINANCIAL_MONTH VARCHAR2(2)
Query that i have used:
SELECT ALL GTEMP.FINANCIAL_YEAR, GTEMP.FINANCIAL_MONTH, GTEMP.GL_CODE
FROM GTEMP
WHERE financial_year between 2007 - 1 and 2007
and financial_month in ('4',' 12')
and division_code = 11
order by financial_month
I know this will not fetch from the date the user parameter enters however is there any other options. Please help me out morgan...

Cursor tips : refresh data fetched by the cursor within run time,discussion

Hello there,
May be what I am asking about is kind of weird, but here is the Q:
let us assume that I have cursor defined as follows:
cursor emp_cursor is
        select EMPNO, ENAME, deptno
        from emp
        where deptno = 10 ;
emp_rec emp_cursor%rowtype; then inside the loop through the data fetched by this cursor, I need to update some records, which might match the criteria of the cursor, by trying the following code segment:
open emp_cursor;
      loop
        fetch emp_cursor into emp_rec;
        exit when emp_cursor%notfound;
        "PROCESS THE RECORD'S DATA "
        DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_Line('count of the records: ' || emp_cursor%rowcount);
        DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_Line('deptno: ' || emp_rec.deptno);
        DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_Line('emp no: ' || emp_rec.empno);
        update emp
        set deptno = 10
        where empno= 7566;
        commit;
        DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_Line('after the update');
      end loop;
      close emp_cursor; but the run never shows the record of employee 7566 as one record of the cursor, may be this is the execution plan of the cursor,
but for the mentioned case, need to re-enter those updated records to the cursor data, to be processed, ( consider that the update statement is conditioned so that not executed always)
any hints or suggestion
Best Regards,

On a serious note, though, the requirement itself is exceedingly odd. You most likely need to rethink your solution so that you remove this requirement. Otherwise, you're likely going to end up querying the same set of rows many, many, many times.

Date format for the RES.PdtePerKey parameter in FDM

Hi
I am using FDM 11.1.2.1 to load data from Oracle eBS 11.5 to Hyperion Planning 11.1.2.1.
I have created a BefExportToDat event script using the parameter RES.PdtePerKey, which contains the period loaded.
On the development environment, the script, using a to_date('dtePerKey','MM/DD/YYYY'), is ok, because the period variable is returning a date loke 'MM/DD/YYYY'.
On the production environment, the same script is KO because the period variable is returning a date like 'DD/MM/YYYY'.
Which configuration parameter could explain this difference?
Thanks a lot for your help
Fanny

No, sorry, I have said a mistake!
I had checked the admin user regional settings.
You were right : the regional settings of the DCOM FDM user were different between the 2 servers (english for dev, french for prod).
If I use "*English*" regional settings on my production server, that is ok, too!
Thanks a lot!
Fanny
PS : but now, the batch loader which was ok with the French regional settings is now ko... but it is another problem... :-(

How to set required number of days for the user passwords to expire

How do I set the duration when users are required to change their passwords? This is an internal control measure to ensure control over users' logins.
Thanks a lot.

You can also set the lifetime of a single password dependent on it's "idle" status:
- Initial password at user creation. (e.g. 5 days)
- Reset password by admin. (e.g. 1 day)
- Productive password not used (e.g 91 days)
.. and the minimum validity of the password, regardless of how often it is used (not idle).
- Productive password expiration time. (e.g. 90 days)
You can also manually observe what is going on via report/transaction RSUSR200.
If you take a look at the documentation on the parameters in the link already provided, you will see the logic and the dependencies between them. The selection fields of RSUSR200 reflect the same.
How you rate the risk of passwords and these settings, also depends on many other things - most notably how disciplinced admins are at using the password wizard (in my opinion).

Julius

BPM Collect Pattern Scenario :Container is empty for the loop at run time

Hi Friends,
I am working on BPM Collect Pattern Scenario after looking into the example delivered by SAP in namespace http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Patterns and IP name as BpmPatternCollectPayload.
After configuring the same and when it is run, I see strange behaviour as illustrated below
1. Container step is empty and not able to see the counter for which it needs to be incremented at runtime
2. I understand that Loop should start and it need to be incremented as when we get a new message into the same BPM.
But I observe that it is creating a new message and loop never stops and completes the condition and comes out to go to next step.
Request your help.
Regards,
Hussain

Hi,
define or declare a variable with name counter and type as integer in Container where you define abstarct variables...

Change of date format to MM/DD/YYYY in ITS web HTML screen.

Hi all
I am facing problem in displaying date field on the HTML for the data coming from SAP back end.
Earlier my screen was also showing the date in the format MM/DD/YYYY but suddenly it started showing date in the format DD.MM.YYYY. I have not changed any code on the front end HTML side.
At sap back end the FM is returning the date in the format MM/DD/YYYY and same data i have to display on the HTML screen.
But it is not showing the data as in the back end format.
Please help me in resolving this issue. as it is bit Urgent.
Thanks
Ekta

Hi Tobias,
Thanks for the reply. I will see to your suggestion. Because the Custom login Id created for login to the service, needs to be checked whether the date format for that user may not be of the type DD/MM/YYYY.
Thanks a lot. I will let you know about it after checking.
Thanks & Regards

Date format for call transaction

Hi,
What is the best solution for passing a date field to a call transaction in the date format that the user has in his settings?.
Rgds

The best solution is to define a character field of length 10. Then WRITE the date to the BDC_DATE and then use this variable when passing to BDC.
data: bdc_date(10) type c.
write sy-datum to bdc_Date.
