How to call SQL in the filter condition

Hi
Booking dashboard report i need to filter order_date between this Quarter starting date and this Quarter end date.
i have custom table data is available Quarter starting and Quarter ending date .
how i can use filter.
thanks

looks like you need to filter the order date between the quarter starting date and quarter ending date making sure order date is always present between the quarter start date and quarter end date
Create a sub report with one column order date and make order date is prompted.
So now in the main report use advanced filter option and
Take the quarter start date column and use advanced filter option on it. Use the filter results based on another request. You can specify quarter start date is greater than the selected order date(sub report order date column)
and
Take the quarter end date column and use advanced filter option on it. Use the filter results based on another request. You can specify quarter end date is less than the selected order date(sub report order date column)
This way you can force the order date always between quarter start date and quarter end date columns
Hope it helps
Thanks

How to collapse the filter conditions

Hi,
We are displaying the filter conditions under each dashboards. But our conditions are around 10, so the user want to collapse them by defualt.
if they want they want to expand and see the filters.
Can any suggest how to achieve this.
Also, during export to ppt they want the filter conditions also to be exported.

thanks,
Venkat.This is what you should do:
1) Ensure that the Filter View exists in your report.
2) In your dashboard, drag TWO instances of your report in a section, one beneath the other.
3) In the second (bottom) instance, click on the Rename button. Type "Filter View" and then check the "Use Dashboard..." checkbox. Click "OK."
4) Click on the Properties button: Properties>Display Results>Link - In a Separate Window.
5) Click on the Properties button again: Properties>Show View>Filters 1
Now check out the dashboard. You will see a simple link that indicates the Filter View of the report without taking up any real estate on your dashboard. It costs you nothing extra and automatically updates when you modify your report.
That's what you should do for dashboard reports.

How to call SQL Script in DBMS_SCHEDULER

How to call SQL Scripts in DBMS_SCHEDULER?
Things I got working
1) Successfully created and tested a PL/SQL that was created under SQL Workshop->SQL Scripts (I named it 'TEST'). I was able to run this no problem.
2) Successfully created a DBMS_SCHEDULER that runs every minutes. (See below)
begin
dbms_scheduler.create_job(
    job_name => 'myjob',
    job_type => 'plsql_block',
    job_action => 'null;',
    start_date => '19-JUL-11 03.10.00 PM', /* Remember to use the DB time, not your local time if not specifying a timezone */
    repeat_interval => 'freq=minutely',
    enabled => true);
end;The problem i am having is to make the PL/SQL script (named 'TEST') runs every minute. Its probably very easy to do that but i dont seems like finding any examples online.
I tried replacing the job_action attribute to " job_action => 'begin TEST; END;', " However, that did not work.
I am stuck here for couple hours already, any clues would be great :)
Thanks in advance

The PL/SQL is pretty long, I would like to call it from a different location rather then putting the whole coding as part of the argument. Sounds like I should be looking into procedure package in database?
I will do some more research on procedure package, how to create one and how to call from it.

How to use OMB to change filter conditions in OWB maps

Hi,
I want to know how we can use OMB to change filter conditions in an OWB map.
As per my scenario i have a filter operator FLTR_1 in my maps and i have to change its filter condition from
INOUTGRP1.ID IN (1,2)
AND
INOUTGRP1.VALUE > CONST_0_MAX_VAL
to
INOUTGRP1.ID IN (1,2)
AND
INOUTGRP1.VALUE > CONST_6_MAX_VAL
Just for everybody's information we are migrating from OWB 9.2 to OWB 10.2 and we have called procedures in constants and used their values in filter conditions.OWB 10.2 generates the values for constants in a different way than OWB 9.2 thats why this change is required.I wish to automate the act of changing constant names so we can save time in changing the maps.
Thx

Carsten,
I created a map in OWB 10.2 and ran the following command
The filter operator name in this map is FILTER
Carsten Herbe wrote:
OMBALTER MAPPING 'TEST_MAP' MODIFY OPEARTOR 'FILTER' SET PROPERTIES (FILTER_CONDITION) VALUES ('INOUTGRP1.ID IN (1,2) AND INOUTGRP1.VALUE > CONST_6_MAX_VAL ')
I got this error:

How to call SQL statements in InDesign CS6?

Hi,
My plug-in needs to interact with the database, and update the database content, how should I do, can I call SQL statements in InDesign CS6?
Thanku very much.

The same way you'd call them from any C++ program. You don't mention which platform, and that probably makes a difference.
I'm accessing an SQL database in InDesign CS6 on Windows. I'm using the ODBC interface to SQL database that Windows provides, via the nanodbc wrapper. So I'm linking to odbc32.lib and odbccp32.lib, and including the nanodbc.cpp and nanodbc.h files. (See http://lexicalunit.github.io/nanodbc/ )

How to call SQL job step by step from windows batch file

Hi ,
I have a SQL agent job [POC_IOD_RunPkgJob] which is being called from bat file with below command.
Could you please tell me how to call only one step of this job, what command I need to mention in the batch file.
SQLCMD -Sabcwi\SQLI01,51565 -E -Q"exec msdb.dbo.sp_start_job [POC_IOD_RunPkgJob]"

Hi RameshDravid,
Regarding your description,though not aware of what is the purposed to call only one step of that job, the below sample can somewhat help to achieve your requirement.
--find the job steps
SELECT
steps.step_id,steps.step_name,steps.subsystem,steps.command
FROM msdb.dbo.sysjobsteps steps
JOIN msdb.dbo.sysjobs jobs
ON steps.job_id = jobs.job_id
WHERE jobs.name = 'youJobName'
--find the command runs in that step, usually that is some command exec stored procedure
SQLCMD -Sabcwi\SQLI01,51565 -E -Q"exec stored procedure found in the above query"
If you have any question, feel free to let me know

Probably not the best way, but you could try using JNI to call a C function which then invokes SQL Loader via system() or exec(). I haven't done this myself though...

How to call SQL script from PL/SQL block

Hi All,
I have a pl/sql block from which i need to call a *.sql script file.
Please tell me that how can i do this?
Thanks and Regards.

> Though just for knowledge sake, would you please tell if there is a way
to call a sql script from a pl/sql block.
This question stems usually from a confusion about client-server and which is which in Oracle.
SQL*Plus is a client. PL/SQL is a server side language. SQL is a server side language.
When entering either one of these two languages in SQL*Plus (or TOAD, SQL-Developer, etc), the content is shipped to an Oracle server process, is parsed there, and is executed there.
The Oracle server process servicing the client can accept a single SQL statement or PL/SQL block at a time.
It cannot accept a block of SQL statements delimited with a semicolon. That is a client concept where the client will read each delimited statement and send that, one after the other (in synchronous call mode) to the Oracle server for execution.
The Oracle server does not have a "script parser". It understands SQL. It understands PL/SQL. And that is what it expects from the client.
Whether the client supports the SET command, the HOST command, SPOOL command, ability to run scripts, and so... have no bearing on what the server itself is capable of doing. The server does not care what feature set the client has. It is tasked with servicing the client via SQL and PL/SQL.
It is not tasked to support or emulate client features like running SQL scripts.
Nor confuse PL/SQL with the very limited command set of SQL*Plus. The two has nothing in common. And just as PL/SQL cannot understand C# or Delphi commands, it cannot understand SQL*Plus commands.

Using sql in the filter expression

For a project I need to use a filter which is a construction
with BETWEEN dateFrom AND dateTo.
But the user does not choose these datevalues,
he chooses timePeriods which have a unique startDate.
The dashboard prompts are populated with these timePeriods and the user chooses 2 of these and 2
presentation variables are set.
Now I need to retrieve the according startDate for a chosen timePeriod.
I tried to do this using a sub-query in the filter expression,
but this seems not to be valid in Answers.
In standard SQL it is expressed like this:
select table1.* from table1
where table1.dateValue BETWEEN
+(select table2.startDate from table2 where table2.timePeriod = 'theChosenValue1')+
AND
+(select table2.startDate from table2 where table2.timePeriod = 'theChosenValue2')+
The return of the subqueries are single row, as it should in such constructions.
I want the where clause to be in the filter expression for the dateValue column in Answers.(trimming of the WHERE keyword)
Is there any other construction that does this trick in the BI Answers/Dashboard environment to do this?
Kind regards

Hi Micek,
Thanks for your quick reaction.
Yes you are right the ChosenValues will be replaced by presentation-variables in the final dashboard,
I just am testing it with constant values in the Answers module.
The problem seems to be that it is not allowed to use a sub-query in the filter expression.
The Answers web application says there is a syntax problem near <select>, while I expect the SQL to be valid.
I guess not all regular SQL is allowed in filter expressions.
And since the report does not try to fetch data, no log of a generated, real SQL is written to the logfile.
I need some alternative for the subquery, but one that is allowed in the filter expression.
The problem is based on the fact that the user chooses a different value then the one that is filtered on.
The timePeriods represent just one startDate, but I cannot use timePeriod itself to filter on.
Because I need a between value, wich does not make sense for a timePeriod element
such as '01-08' or 'JAN-08'.
Several timePeriod notations are used, so using SubString and || to calculate a numeric value from the timePeriod varchar2 is not a good option.
The error says:
Error getting drill information: SELECT "....
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 27002] Near <SELECT>: Syntax error [nQSError: 26012] . (HY000)
Any input is welcome

The error you get tells you that the server cannot find the service GET_SEARCH_RESULTS.
I checked the documentation (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17904_01/doc.1111/e11011/c05_core.htm#BABJBFFD) and this service is defined as a subservice - therefore, you might call it only within other service and (most likely) not directly from java.
I guess that you use a filter because you use some standard hooks (like check-in ones). Therefore, you might not be able to call subservice prior to calling the filter. I'd suggest you to write what you are trying to achieve - it seems to me a bit strange that as a result of a filter you want to nothing else but fill-in a search result set.

How To Call SQL Server SP's in Oracle 11G

Anant,
Which gateway are you using to connect to SQL*Server ? Is it the Database Gateway for SQL*Server (DG4MSQL) or Database Gateway for ODBC (DG4ODBC) ?
If it is DG4MSQL then have a look at this note in My Oracle Support -
Different Methods For Calling MS SQL Server Procedures Using DG4MSQL (Doc ID 197192.1)
If you still have problems using DG4MSQL then post an example of what you are trying to do and the errors you receive.
If you are using DG4ODBC then this does not support calling remote stored procedures.

Mike

How to call sql loader ctrl file with in the pl/sql procedure

Hi Friends,
I am doing a project related with the transferring data using queues. In the queue , I will get a tab delimited data in the form of CLOB variable/message. I do want to store that dat in the oracle table.
When updating data into the table ,
1. Don't want to write that data into a file.( Want to access directly after dequeueing from the specfic queue).
2. As the data is in tab delimited form, I want to use sql loader concept.
How do I call the sql loader ctrl file with in my pl/sql procedure. When I searched , most of the forums recommending external procedure or Java program.
Please Guide me on this issue. my preferrence is pl sql, But don't know about external procedure . If no other way , I will try Java.
I am using oracle 9.2.0.8.0.
Thanks in advance,
Vimal..

Neither SQL*Loader nor external tables are designed to read data from a CLOB stored in the database. They both work on files stored on the file system. If you don't want the data to be written to a file, you're going to have to roll your own parsing code. This is certainly possible. But it is going to be far less efficient than either SQL*Loader or external tables. And it's likely to involve quite a bit more code.
The simplest possible thing that could work would be to use something like Tom Kyte's string tokenization package to read a line from the CLOB, break it into the component pieces, and then store the different tokens in a meaningful collection (i.e. an object type or a record type that corresponds to the table definition). Of course, you'll need to handle things like converting strings to numbers or dates, rejecting rows, writing log files, etc.
