Creating a fiscal date table that includes Day of Year and Week of Year column

Hi,
Our fiscal year runs between 1st October through to 30th September and I'm trying to create a date table that I can use to represent this in Powerpivot (I'm using Excel 2013). I had no probably creating columns for Fiscal month or fiscal year, however I am
having issue breaking it down more than that, specifically I cannot work out how to calculate:
- day of the year
- week of the year (with week one starting on the first day of the year rather than the first Monday)
I worked out how to do the day of the year until I had to try and account for leap years which broke the formula I had! Can anyone please recommend solutions, I cannot see anything online about this. Obviously I know that it is simple to do this for a normal
calendar year but this approach doesn't work with a custom fiscal year.
Whilst it is useful for several reasons, my main reason for wanting week is so that I can plot my Pivotcharts more smoothly (although I may have missed an easier way to do that).
Thanks,
James

For my example I started with 1 column in Power Pivot called [Date]
I created the following Columns
[DayofMonth] =Day([Date])
[MonthNumber] =Month([Date])
[Fiscal Year] =IF([MonthNumber]< 10, Year([Date]), (Year([Date])+1))
[Fiscal Day] =[Date] - DATE(([Fiscal Year] -1), 10,1) +1
[Fiscal Week] =RoundUp([Fiscal Day] / 7, 0)
Change [Date] to whatever your date column is and those DAX formulas will get you what you need

How can I generate a data merge that includes a barcode from excel spreadsheet to InDesign?

Can you please advise if the following process is possible within InDesign CS 5.5? (Mac OS 10.8.2).
We need to create a data merge that includes a barcode. The data merge is for several thousand records.
We have a customer-supplied Excel spreadsheet that contains seven fields, one of which is a number that ultimately needs to print as a barcode when we make the data merge in InDesign.
As you would expect, the conventional six fields data merge perfectly - but we can't find a way to make the barcode print correctly within the data merge.
We have investigated several possible solutions without success.
Some solutions suggest a plug-in for Excel to convert the number into a barcode whilst still in the spreadsheet - but this doesn't come across correctly when we import the CSV file into the InDesign data merge.
We have investigated certain third party software applications but none provide the full solution we require. Some, for example, appear to create the barcode within the Excel spreadsheet but don't produce the barcode correctly when we data merge in InDesign; and some will allow us to create a one-off barcode within InDesign but have no automated way of retrieving the thousands of Excel numbers and turning them into barcodes.
We have also come across possible 'font' solutions but have had no success with these either.
For a previous job we needed to produce we outsourced to a specialist mailing company, who assured us they produced the whole job (very quickly) within InDesign. They, understandably, won't tell us how they did it. But, given the speed with which they produced the job for us, we imagine - with the correct software - the whole process is easy to do.
Can you please advise?

How can I create a custom data type that is a 2D array of string by using TestStand API?

Hi all,
I'm new in TestStand:
I'm able to create a custom data type that is a 1D array of string but I cannot find the way to create a 2D array of string.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you in advance.
Federico

I made it!!
Indeed my 2D array is an item of a container:
/*  Create a new container */
RunState.Engine.NewPropertyObject(Locals.NewDataType,PropValType_Container,False,"",0)
/*  Create an array of strings as item of the container */
Locals.NewDataType.NewSubProperty("Array_2D",PropValType_String,True,"",0)
/*  Reshape the array as an empty 2D array */
Locals.NewDataType.GetPropertyObject("Array_2D",0).Type.ArrayDimensions.SetBoundsByStrings("[0][0]","[][]")
being:
NewDataType a local property (type Object)

Table that links country tax code and jurisdict.code

Which is the table that links country, tax code and jurisdict.code.

This could be one way of finding what countries are using the tax codes:
1. Determine all the countries where the calculation procedure TAXEUR has been assigned to
2. Execute report "S_ALR_87012365"
3. Enter Country code in the selection screen and hit execute
4. The report will display all the tax codes created for the country
5. Manually check if the tax code exists in the list
An other way to do this which you might already know is to use FTXP and view the tax codes in the drop down list.
I hope this helps.

Can I create a presentation in iPhoto that will combine still slides and video?

I have just returned from a safari and have a lot of pictures and videos from the trip. I would like to create a presentation/slide show that will show the slides and also videos in the same slide show and allow me to manually pace the show. I know how to do this in PowerPoint but would rather use a more natice mac ap and thought it might be possible in iMovie or iPhoto but am not sure exactly what the best way to do this would be.

and allow me to manually pace the show. I know how to do this in PowerPoint but would rather use a more natice mac ap and thought it might be possible in iMovie or iPhoto but am not sure exactly what the best way to do this would be.
If you want a native Mac application for your slideshow you could also try Keynote, the Apple alternative to Powerpoint. It will give you similar presentation options.
Aperture - if you have it - would allow to trim the videos, allow more fine control over how the audio of the clips will be mixed, and still allow to manually pace the slideshow, but it is expensive and will no longer be developed. But if you have compatible versions of Aperture and iPhoto, simple open your iPhoto Library in Aperture: Aperture 3.3: Using a unified photo library with iPhoto and Aperture

Table that stores the business role and user id mapping

Hi,
i want to know the table that stores the Business role and the business role and user id mapping in CRM system.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Pricy

Hi Mary,
There is no direct table but there is a way to find it.
HRP1263 is the table where business roles are stored when maintained at org level. These are stored against the Position.
For getting user ID and position linkage refer table HRP1001.
In HRP1001 table use below criteria to get the User and Position.
OTYPE = CP
SCLAS = US
SOBID = User ID
ENDDA = 31.12.9999
Get the OBJID
Query the HRP1001 table again with following
OTYPE = CP
OBJID = OBJID from above Query
ENDDA = 31.12.9999
SCLAS = S
SOBID = Thats Position.
Pass the position to HRP1263 as below.
OTYPE = S
OBJID = POSITION
PROFILE - Thats business role assigned for the given position and user.
Hope this is helpful.

Naresh

How to populate the data or details of only the present year and the previous year with respect to the given RATNG?

Hi All,
I have created a form with 5 blocks (namely ENQACMHDR, ENQACMDTL, ENQACEHDR, ENQACEDTL, ENQACSPEC), where i have 8 push buttons (namely ENTER_QUERY, EXEC_QUERY, CLEAR, FIRST, NEXT, PREVIOUS, LAST & EXIT).
This form is created just for viewing purpose only. So after I execute, all the blocks have been blocked against insert & update.
I query on 2 fields that is 'ENQNO' and 'RATNG' (Both the fields belong to the block ENQACMDTL).
When I click on 'EXEC_QUERY' directly, all the data of all the years populates.
But the user wanted the data to be populated from only the present year and the previous year.
So , on 'WHERE Clause' of the property_palette of 'ENQACMDTL' block , I put in the following condition:
SUBSTR(ENQACMDTL.ENQNO, 1,4)=TO_CHAR( ADD_MONTHS(SYSDATE,-12) , 'YYYY') OR SUBSTR(ENQACMDTL.ENQNO, 1,4)=TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'YYYY')
PROPERTY PALETTE (ENQACMDTL block)
WHERE Clause
SUBSTR(ENQACMDTL.ENQNO, 1,4)=TO_CHAR( ADD_MONTHS(SYSDATE,-12) , 'YYYY') OR SUBSTR(ENQACMDTL.ENQNO, 1,4)=TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'YYYY')
Now the data of only the present year and the previous year is being populated. Its ok with the field of 'ENQNO'.
The problem is when i query on field 'RATNG' . 'RATNG' is a Text_item with Number of Items displayed=5. (5 rows)
The following are 2 columns of a Table (Name=ENQACMDTL) in Database.
ENQNO
RATNG
2013900054
500KC2
2013900047
800KC4
2013520018
750KC6
2012900037
1000KC2
2012520109
500KC2
2012140019
750KC6
2011540036
500KC2
2011100030
1000KC2
2006100007
90KD8
2006750014
750KC6
2006900072
500KC2
The first 4 numbers of 'ENQNO' denotes the year. There are more than a lakhs of records.
So when i query on the field 'RATNG',
Example:For RATNG=500KC2;
I click on ENTER_QUERY, On the field of 'RATNG' , i put in the value 500KC2 and click on EXEC_QUERY; Details with respect to 500KC2 is displayed as well as all the other unwanted RATNG like 750KC6, 1000KC2 (which belongs to the ENQNO of the present year and the previous year) also gets displayed.
I want details of only RATNG (500KC2) to be displayed, but only of the present year and the previous year, that is 2013900054, 2012520109 (ENQNO).
Other than 500KC2 RATNG, no other RATNG must be displayed.
The RATNG=500KC2 is also present for ENQNO=2011540036 , 2006900072. But I dont want these to be displayed.
I want only the data or details of the present year and the previous year to be displayed or populated with respect to the given RATNG.
Can You Help me or tell me what do i do for this?
Hope I'm clear with my question!!
If my question is not clear, let me know plz.
Thank You.

On key-exeqry you have to program. Delete all other trigger codings for checking your condition.
It dint work on key-exeqry.
I tried key-exeqry on form trigger, block (enqacmdtl) and also on field(:enqacmdtl.enqno) , but none of them worked.
It did not display the message.
I have a 'PUSH-BUTTON:EXEC_QUERY.
For EXEC_QUERY, Trigger : WHEN_BUTTON_PRESSED;
I added the following code:
if to_number(substr(:enqacmdtl.enqno,1,4))<to_number(to_char(add_months(sysdate,-12),'YYYY')) then
     message('The Rating is not present for the present year and the previous year');message(' ',no_acknowledge);
     raise form_trigger_failure;
else
     execute_query;
end if;
It is working fine and the message is being displayed.
But again I have a new problem and that is;
On the field :enqacmdtl.enqno, when i enter the '2013%' and press 'EXEC_QUERY', it works fine.
but when i enter '2006%' and press 'EXEC_QUERY', it shows the following error
FRM-50016: Legal characters are 0-9 - +E. It does not display the message also.
but when i enter the complete number, '2006580002', then it works fine , that is it displays the message (The Rating is not present for the present year and the previous year).
The problem is because of '%', only when i put in the restricted data (which does not satisfy where condition).
How do i solve this?
Thank You Priyasagi.

Access 2010 InfoPath Data Collection Export Fails Due to Date Format That Includes Time Zone

I created an Access 2010 database that has multiple data collection (InfoPath) forms that were generated from Access and have been in use for about 1.5 years. Starting in 2013 (for about a week now), the submitted data fails to Export due
to a "data type conversion error" with the date fields. Prior to 2013, the date string returned in the InfoPath form looked like this: "2013-01-07T00:00:00", but now it looks like this: "2013-01-07T00:00:00-05:00". The time zone is appended
to the string and it kills the Outlook Export feature.
To test this, I created a new database with one table and one date time field. I generated an InfoPath template and emailed it to myself. I entered the date into the template and submitted it (tried manually entering the date as well as
using the date time picker control - made no difference). The InfoPath template now contains "2013-01-07T00:00:00-05:00" and will not Export from Outlook to Access. I tried manually pasting the string into the Access table and it would take it,
but would show "1/7/2013 5:00:00 AM" in the date time field (which isn't correct either but at least it took). Note: This problem has appeared at my office (Win 7 with Office 2010), but my testing was done on my personal laptop using Win 8 with Office
2010.
It looks like Microsoft has created a bug and now all of my data collection forms are unusable. Any help will be appreciated.

Microsoft confirmed that the issue was introduced with MS12-066 as follows:

We have been able to identify that this issue was introduced with the change made for the hotfix detailed in KB 2687395. This update was included in the security update MS12-066 when you installed KB 2687417.

Investigating workarounds I've only come up with using HTML forms or changing the datatype of the control to text.

My own testing also indicates that if you are using InfoPath with SQL Server, you may be able to change the Date/Time picker control in InfoPath to a Date only picker control (if the SQL Server data
type will support that).

Hi Scott,
2) Yes, FOR XML PATH clause converts relational data to XML format with a specific structure for the "marvel" Table. Regarding validate all the avenger_names, please see below
sample.
DECLARE @x XML
SELECT @x=(SELECT ID ,avenger_name FROM marvel FOR XML PATH('Marvel'))
SELECT @x
SELECT
n.value('avenger_name[1]','VARCHAR(99)') avenger_name,
n.value('ID[1]','INT') ID
FROM @x.nodes('//Marvel') Tab(n)
WHERE n.value('ID[1]','INT') = 1 -- specify the ID here
--FOR XML PATH('Marvel') --uncommented this line if you want the result as element type
3)i.check the xml schema content
--find xml schema collection
SELECT ss.name,xsc.name collection_name FROM sys.xml_schema_collections xsc JOIN sys.schemas ss ON xsc.schema_id= ss.schema_id
select * from sys.schemas
--check the schema content,use the name,collection_name from the above query
SELECT xml_schema_namespace(N'name',N'collection_name')
3)ii. View can be viewed as virtual table. Use a view to list the XML schema content.
CREATE VIEW XSDContentView
AS
SELECT ss.name,xsc.name collection_name,cat.content
FROM sys.xml_schema_collections xsc JOIN sys.schemas ss ON xsc.schema_id= ss.schema_id
CROSS APPLY(
SELECT xml_schema_namespace(ss.name,xsc.name) AS content
) AS cat
WHERE xsc.name<>'sys'
GO
SELECT * FROM XSDContentView

Creating FK's in tables that are all ready created

Good afternoon,
I have 4 tables set up, and need to create foreign keys in three on them relating back to my EMPLOYEE table. The FK will be based on the employee number column in the EMPLOYEE table.
Once these tables are created and populated, how do I link a PK to a FK, and how do I create a FK in a table that is already created.
Many Thanks,
-Robert

Hello Robert,
you can do that with APEX as well:
1. Login to your workspace
2. Go into "SQL Workshop"
3. Start the "Object Browser"
4. Select "Tables" (if not selected already)
5. Pick your desired table (e.g. CONSULTING) from the table list
6. Click on "Contraints" in the detail view
7. Click on "Create"
8. Enter your desired Contraint Name (e.g. CONSULTING_FK)
9. Chose your desired Contraint Type (e.g. Foreign Key)
10. Chose your option for action on delete for that key (see lakes post above)
11. Chose the column that contains the foreign key (e.g. Cnslt_Emp)
12. Chose the table to be referenced (e.g. EMPLOYEE)
13. Chose the column to be reference (e.g. Emp_Num)
14. Continue
15. Check if all settings are correct, see the SQL statement if you want, and click Finish.
To learn more about what you can do with the Object Browser and the other components in the SQL Workshop, you might want to study the [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17556_01/doc/user.40/e15520/toc.htm]APEX SQL Workshop Guide. It contains step-by-step guides for almost all functionality you'll need in every day life.

Unable to create new entry in table that has no primary key

Hi
I have a table which is required to have no primary key (except mandt). After i generate table maintanance, when I go to create new entries, the table control to enter the new values does not appear. When I click on edit->new entries, it goes back to the fields tab of the table. Same when i check through SM30.
If i maintain atleast one primary key, I am able to get the table control in new entries screen. However the requirement permits no primary keys except mandt. How can this be resolved?
Thanks
NM

Hi,
THE PROBLEM WITH UR TABLE IS
YOU HAD DECLARED MANDT AS THE PRIMARY KEY AND THERE IS NO OTHER KEY IN UR TABLE
iT'S NOT ALLOWING YOU TO ADD NEW ENTRIES BECAUSE MANDT IS THE ONLY PRIMARY KEY IN YOUR TABLE AND IT WILL HAVE A DEFAULT VALUE BASED ON THE CLIENT. SO IT'S NOT SHOWING YOU THE CREATE NEW ENTRIES OPTION.
SO TRY TO PUT ONE MORE FIELD AS THE PRIMARY KEY SO THAT YOUR PROBLEM WILL SOLVE VERY EASILY ALSO MAKE SURE THAT TABLE IS ACTIVATED.
REVERT IF U NEED SOME MORE HELP
Thanks &Regards.
