  • How to identify first and last approver?

    Using SharePoint Designer 2010 I have a simple Approval process workflow. I will have 5 approvers but I need to populate a fields in a list that are "Initial Approver" and "Final Approver".
    How do I grab the name of these approvers to display in the fields?

    Hi,
    I could figure out how to get last approver for Approval Process workflow:
    1. Open this link and navigate to section "Change
    a completion condition for the task process"
    2. Change the value in Percentage
    of Approved to 100%
    3. Grab the name of approver in this condition.
    Let me know if this works.
    Thanks,

  • How can I display the first and last name using a paramater as employee ID?

    Hi SAP,
    I have a parameter that is called {? Employee ID}.   What I want to do is display the first and last name based on the employee ID value entered in {? Employee ID} in the page header of the report.  Right now, when I put the following formula in the page header only some pages get the right result while other pages dont....
    if table.employeeid = {? Employee ID} then
    table.firstname" "table.lastname
    It appears as though if the first record in the details section on the beginning of each page happens to be the employee under {? Employee ID} then it prints it correctly, if it isn't I get a null value in the page header.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Z

    Hi Try this,
    Whileprintingrecords;
    if ={?EmpID} then
    Also check the option "Default values for null" in the formula editor.

  • Can only see first and last frame of clip in the timeline HELP PLEASE

    Hi, my first time and I did look for an answer, but can't find one. I have premiere elements 4 and I am trying out ver. 9. In ver. 4 the clips in the timelin shows all the frames, but in ver. 9 it only shows the first and last frame of the clips. Is there any way to make all the frames show. By "all the frames", I mean the clips fill with frames.I liked to see all the frames in the timeline, it is easier for me to select and trim the bits out.
    My specs are Core 2 Duo 6750, Nvidia 8600GTS, 4G Ram, Vista Home Premium. 3 HDD 3TB.
    Thank you for answering

    As for the GUI, PrE had one more like PrPro (the early versions), up through PrE 3. With PrE 4, they streamlined the GUI (and some of the operation), and went with the "dark look." PrPro went in that direction starting with CS3, and now, the two programs' GUI looks more alike - darker. Personally, I like PrPro 2.0's brighter GUI. Now, one can alter the brightness, but the contrast can work against doing much of that - give me the lighter GUI....
    The look of PrE 4 thru PrE 9 is very similar, though things have moved about some. Still the look is similar. Same for PrPro CS 3 through CS 5.5.
    As for the trial, things have changed in PrPro, as of CS 5.5. Once, the PrPro trial was very crippled, but had no watermark. No more. No crippling, and still no watermark. The trial for PrE is far less crippled, but does have the watermark. We do not know what changes might be coming with the trial of PrE10. We will just have to wait and see. One great option that Adobe offers is the 30-day, money-back guarantee. If you buy Premiere (either flavor), and use it for 29 days, but do not like it, then you return it for your money back. This is the full-paid version (both flavors) with nothing crippled, and no watermark. Not that many companies make such an offer. Basically, on can use the trial for 30 days, to see some of the powers of the program, and then buy it, and try it fully for another 29 days. If not completely satisfied, they get their money back - essentially a 59 day trial.
    Were I doing AVCHD, I would definitely look at buying PrE 9, and giving it a 29 day shakedown. The only caveat is that AVCHD requires a lot of computer "horsepower," and not all computers (especially if more than a year, or so old) are up to that task. I find it amazing that a consumer format, like AVCHD, requires more computer power to process, than most professional formats, until one gets up to, say RED 2K/4K. However, that is the nature of the H.264 CODEC, and by that, I mean all H.264, not just the AVCHD version.
    Good luck and happy editing,

    Thanks

    Adomacro,
    you could do a function, like this
    <cffunction name="getReportdates" returntype="struct"
    hint="Given an arbitrary month and year, the function returns a
    structure containing the first and last day of the previous
    month">
    <!--- Take current month and current year as the default
    --->
    <cfargument name="mnth" type="string" required="No"
    default="#monthAsString(month(now()))#">
    <cfargument name="yr" type="numeric" required="No"
    default="#year(now())#">
    <cfset firstDayOfGivenMonth = parseDateTime("1 " &
    arguments.mnth & " #arguments.yr#")>
    <cfset lastDayOfPreviousMonth =
    dateAdd("d",-1,firstDayOfGivenMonth)>
    <cfset numberOfDaysOfPreviousMonth =
    daysInMonth(lastDayOfPreviousMonth)>
    <cfset firstDayOfPreviousMonth =
    dateAdd("d",-#numberOfDaysOfPreviousMonth#,firstDayOfGivenMonth)>
    <cfset reportDates = structNew()>
    <cfset reportDates.firstDayOfPreviousMonth =
    firstDayOfPreviousMonth>
    <cfset reportDates.lastDayOfPreviousMonth =
    lastDayOfPreviousMonth>
    <cfreturn reportDates>
    </cffunction>
    <!--- Example usage --->
    <p>
    Given month: <strong>March

    begin date:
    <cfoutput>#dateFormat(getReportdates('March',2004).firstDayOfPreviousMonth,"d

  • Get First and last day of Month..

    Hi Friends,
    I am trying to fetch First and Last day of a month and would like to implement that in the following code:
    SELECT COALESCE(Date_A, Date_B, Date_C)
    FROM dual
    Here Date A and B are in Format of MM DD YYYY (March 14, 2008)
    and Date C is like MM YYYY (March 2008)
    How can I get the Date_C as March 1, 2008 OR March 31, 2008 format if Date A and B are NULL ?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    In my earlier message, I thought that you were starting with strings like '03 12 2009' and that you wanted to display them as 'March 12 2009'. If what you have is just the reverse, then just reverse the format strings in my first message. Add a comma, if you want one, in the appropriate format string.
    I believe this is what you want:
    COALESCE ( TO_CHAR ( TO_DATE ( Date_A, 'fmMonth DD YYYY'), 'MM DD YYYY')
             , TO_CHAR ( TO_DATE ( Date_B, 'fmMonth DD YYYY'), 'MM DD YYYY')
             , TO_CHAR ( TO_DATE ( Date_C, 'fmMonth YYYY'),    'MM DD YYYY')
             )Notice how, on the 3rd line, TO_DATE is called without DD in the format string:
    TO_DATE ( Date_C, 'fmMonth YYYY')When you do this, the day defaults to the 1st of the month, so this is all you have to do to convert the VARCHAR2 'March 2009' to the DATE 01-Mar-2009.
    If you want the last day of the month, not the first, when Date_C is chosen, then use LAST_DAY:
    COALESCE ( TO_CHAR ( TO_DATE ( Date_A, 'fmMonth DD YYYY'), 'MM DD YYYY')
             , TO_CHAR ( TO_DATE ( Date_B, 'fmMonth DD YYYY'), 'MM DD YYYY')
             , TO_CHAR ( LAST_DAY ( TO_DATE ( Date_C
                                              , 'fmMonth YYYY'
                 , 'MM DD YYYY'
             )

    Thanks in anticipation!
    Aki.

    Hi All,
    Thanks for your early update...but my requirement here is
    I have two pages (FIRST , NEXT ) First is having Header, Main and Footer
    NEXT is having Main and Footer ..I am printing PO here..let us think that my PO is having 20lines items , let us assume that it takes five pages...
    Now how application is printing is ..first set of data is printing in FIRST page and remainiang data distributed to 4 pages printing in NEXT page ..but what my requirement is , I need fifth page print on FIRST page, instead of NEXT page... Ultimately I need last set of data always print in FIRST ie out of 5 pages 1st print on FIRST 2nd 3rd 4th print on NEXT and 5th print again on FIRST .
    hope you this will clear you.
    Thanks!

  • Select first and last records in grouped results - Oracle 11g

    Say I have the following information in an Oracle 11g table:
    Qty

    30
    00000000000000002
    14-JAN-14 00:29
    I would like to write a query that would return the following:
    Qty
    Production order
    First
    Last
    80
    00000000000000001
    12-JAN-14 00:02
    13-JAN-14 00:09
    120
    00000000000000002
    12-JAN-14 00:11
    14-JAN-14 00:29
    That is, the sum of the Qty column grouped by Production order, and the date/time of the first and last records for each Production order.
    I came up with a query that yielded this result:
    Qty
    Production order
    First
    Last
    80
    00000000000000001
    12-JAN-14 00:02

    12-JAN-14 00:02
    14-JAN-14 00:29
    Which means that the First and Last columns show the overall first and last date / time of the whole table. Please note that this is a dummy table. Sorry I am now allowed to write the actual query
    I came up with since work policies do not allow me to share it. Also, I tried with windowing functions such as rank()and row_number() but my user does not have enough privileges to do so.
    Any help or hints will be greatly appreciated.

    Due to the fact that Oracle does not record the rows in any particular order, it would be wrong that the "first date" would be the first row processed by the query.
    Therefore you would have to supply some other column if you do not want to consider the table as ordered by date.
    Also, any analytical functions will need you to supply the "order by" and if its the date, then just a simple query will do:
    SQL>WITH Tab1 (Qty, Production_Order, Pdate)
      2       AS (SELECT 20, '00000000000000001', TO_DATE ( '12-JAN-14 00:02', 'DD-MON-YY HH24:MI') FROM DUAL UNION ALL

  • After installing some updates on final cut pro 7 is asking me to enter my first and last names plus serial number which i dont have. how do i go about this?

    After intalling some updates for Final cut, I m asked to put my first and last names and serial number which unfortunatelt i do not have. how do i go about this?

    To add to what BenB advised, make sure you have proof of purchase when you call Apple for a replacement serial number.
    For future reference, it is a good idea to keep all software serial numbers in a database or text document.  Considering the cost of the software, keeping a list of serial numbers can come in very handy at times like this.

    Has anybody else seen this?
    The jnlp file contains five properties, but the JRE does not recognize the first nor the last property.

    We also have this problem, but it's not first and last property.
    We have 6 properties, and the 3. property is gone.
    If I download the jnlp file, the property is there, if I choose show jnlp file in "javaws -viewer" it's not there. Only difference between this property and the working properties is length.
    The length is char 255, and the data is base64 encoded.
    I worked fine before upgrading to Java 6 update 5.
    Anyone any ideas?

  • Query : first and last 25 records of a table

    Hi @ll,
    i am going to write a query for a report. Therefor i need the first and last 25 records of a table. Does anyone got an idea for a solution ? I was trying to achieve this by using a WHERE clause. Here is a part of the query :
    SELECT
    TOP 10 T1.[ItemCode], DATEPART(mm, T1.[DocDate])   [.....]
    FROM FROM INV1 T1
    Where T1.[DocDate] >= Cast('2009  [......] AND
    T1.ItemCode = (
    SELECT TOP 10 T40.[ItemCode]
    FROM DBO.OINM
    WHERE Where T40.[DocDate] >= Cast('2009-04-01 00:00:00' AS datetime)
    AND T40.[DocDate] <= Cast('2009-04-30 00:00:00' AS datetime)
    GROUP BY T1.[ItemCode], DATEPART(mm, T40.[DocDate])
    ORDER BY SUM(T1.[TotalSumSy]) ASC)
    The where part i would use twice, once for ascending the other one for descending. But it does not work.
    Any ideas ?
    Regards Steffen

    Hi,
    Union was the keyword, that i was searching for. It is a nice way, but not practible.
    We are using coresuite for generating reports, and there were a nice possibility to connect diffrent queries.
    Thanks for your suggestion.
    Regards Steffen

  • Is it possible to select multiple layers by selecting first and last layers?

    I frequently get Illustrator files in that have individual objects such as paths on individual layers that could be grouped to make the layers more concise. I find that I have to shift click each individual layer to select it to eventually group it. At times, I have 25 or so layers that I need to select. Is there a way to select the first and last layer in the layers palette, and have Illustrator select all layers in between?

    Katrina,
    And I guess it's the way I work. 1) I routinely select objects by selecting them from the layers palette, and not the canvas, so that I can't accidentally move an object that is the clients artwork. I prefer to work this way, as I consider it "safer". (I lock layers I'm not using) I routinely run into artists work that for instance, converted fonts to outline, and now each compound layer that is an individual letter is an object on it's own layer. 2) I need things grouped together and titled so that if I need to come back to this file and quickly fix something on press, I can tell what layer holds what object. 
    3) Therefore, I frequently need to select objects in a two mile long (slight exaggeration ) list of layers/sublayers and group them, retaining them in their same layers in the event an effect has been applied at the top hiearchy of that layer.
    It would be great if a key, or combination of keys, would allow me to select the top object, scroll down and select the last object, and have Illustrator select all between those two.
    If you create and use selections as suggested in post #12, you do have to select individual objects when they share layers with other objects (but you can select whole layers as well) in exactly the way you are used to (1), but you only have to do it once instead of having to repeat it (3), and you have them collected with a title so you can find them again (2).
    At least it is part of the way.

  • Format first and last record of result query

    Hello
    I have the following query
    <tt>select 1 seq, 'This is First record' data from dual union all
    select 2, 'Data ' || tname from tab union all
    select 3, 'This was last record Last record' from dual
    order by 1</tt>
    When i spool this statement to a listfile with col seq noprint option i get:
    This is First record
    Data MLA_ACCESS_LIST
    Data MLA_APPLICATIONS
    Data MLA_VPD_PCK
    Data MLA_VPD_TABLES
    This was last record Last record
    But i want:
    This is First record MLA_ACCESS_LIST
    Data MLA_APPLICATIONS
    Data MLA_VPD_PCK
    MLA_VPD_TABLES This was last record Last record
    I tried it with 1 statement with usage of lead and lag, because first and last record have to differ from the other result records. But i get ORA-30484: missing window specification for this function
    Is this possible with 1 statement or am i doomed to edit the results by myself?
    Thanks Auke

    select case row_number() over (order by tname)
    when 1 then 'This is the First record '
    end || tname ||
    case row_number() over (order by tname desc)
    when 1 then ' This was the last record'
    end
    from tab
    order by tname
