Multiplying 2 values based on an If statement in SSRS reports

I am working on a pretty complicated report, and I am unable to get the values to multiply correctly on one line. The expression is simple, if the value in textbox293 is greater then the value in textbox294 then multiply textbox293 by textbox289 else
multiply textbox294 by textbox289.
In SSRS terms IIF(textbox293.value > textbox294.value, textbox293.value * textbox289.value, textbox294.value * textbox289.value)
I am using the actual formulas that I used to get the values, they have a nested IIF statement to return 0.00 if the value is less < 0. I am also rounding to 6 decimal places on 1 value to ensure I get the correct value out to 4 decimal places.
I have checked all of the value on the report up to this point are correct, and are displaying correctly. I have broken apart my IIF statement to make it easier to read:
=IIF(IIF((Sum(Fields!RSR_MIN_2.Value, "Revenue") + IIF((Sum(Fields!SR_Minus_2.Value, "Certificated_Exp") - First(Fields!RSR_MIN_2.Value, "Rev_Code5899") - First(Fields!End_Fund_min2.Value, "End_Fund_Balance"))

A screen shot of the report:
The value in the bottom box should be: 37,080,118.75
I have tried:

I have also tried
=IIF(CDbl(Fields!Textbox293.Value) > CDbl(Fields!Textbox294.Value), CDbl(FieldsTextbox293.Value) * CDbl(Fields!Textbox289.Value), CDbl(Fields!Textbox294.Value) * CDbl(Fields!Textbox289.Value))
I get the same scope error, part of the problem here is that in order to get things to display correctly each row in this section of the report is a different table
Row1 = tablix19
Row2 = tablix20
Row3 = tablix21
Any help here would be great

Hello,
In your case, we can try to use Report Variables to resolve the issue. In SSRS, when we have a complex calculation we can create a variable in the report. Variable can be used more than once in a report. Please refer to the following steps:
Open Report Properties dialog box.
Click Variables in the left pane. Then, add specific variable.
(Note: Suppose we have create two variables: textbox293, textbox294)
After that, we can use following expression to calculate the effect:
=IIF(Variables! textbox293.Value > Variables! textbox294.Value,
Variables! textbox293.Value * ReportItems!Textbox289.Value,
Variables! textbox294.Value * ReportItems!Textbox289.Value)

Display value in hh:mm time format in SSRS Report

Hi Everybody,
I have an SSRS report where one of the column is sum of time values. When I do the summation, the values are coming in this format. In the last column the minute value is getting displayed more than 60. How can I format it to proper time format as hh:mm
so that it displays as "08:15" . The expression which I am using is " Sum(CDec(FormatNumber(Fields!Overtime_Hours.Value,2)),"Month"). Your help would be highly appreciated.

Hi RPC24,
According to your description, you can calculate the correct value of time summation. Now you want to make the result into proper time format (hh:mm). Right?
In this scenario, we can convert the time into string type, split the string based on delimiter ":" and convert each part into integer. Then do the calculation for each part and set the hour increase 1 every 60 minutes (we can adjust in expression).
We have tested this case in our local environment. Here are screenshots for you reference:
1. The report design looks like below:
A: =Format(TimeValue(Fields!StartTime.Value.ToString),"hh:mm")
B:=CStr(SUM(CInt(split(CStr(Format(TimeValue(Fields!StartTime.Value.ToString),"hh:mm")),":")(0)))+SUM(CInt(split(CStr(Format(TimeValue(Fields!StartTime.Value.ToString),"hh:mm")),":")(1)))\60)+":"+CStr(SUM(CInt(split(CStr(Format(TimeValue(Fields!StartTime.Value.ToString),"hh:mm")),":")(1)))
Mod 60)
Ps: In this sample, we used Time data type. You may need to do some modification in your expression based on the data type of the time data field.
2. The result looks like below:

Trouble with IIF statement in SSRS report builder

hi....
I have an expression field that isn't working. They are Dynamics GP tables, and I am trying to show converted currencies:
=IIF (Fields!Currency.Value=RTrim("Z-US$"), Fields!ORCPTCOST.Value
, Fields!ORCPTCOST.Value / CDEC(Fields!ExchangeRate.Value))
The true part is bolded. when the report shows, it always comes up as
#Error. If the currency is "Z-MXN$", it calculates it fine.
So why is my true part not working?
thanks!
~george

Hi George,
Based on my research, this issue can be caused by
IIF is not an expression, it is a function with three parameters:
IIF(Condition, ValueIfTrue, ValueIfFalse)
Note that all parameters are evaluated before being passed to the function. We can still get an error, because the erroneous expression is still evaluated even when the condition should mean that it
isn't. For example, when the currency is "Z-US$", the ExchangeRate field returns
a stream of letters which cannot be changed to decimal type. Or the ExchangeRate field returns 0, then the denominator is 0, the division makes no sense. So it displays #Error.
To fix this issue, we can assign a value that doesn’t affect the expression result to ExchangeRate field when it is
a stream of letters or equal to 0. The expression below is for your references:
=IIF (Fields!Currency.Value=RTrim("Z-US$"), Fields!ORCPTCOST.Value , Fields!ORCPTCOST.Value / CDEC(iif(IsNumeric(Fields!ExchangeRate.Value)=false or Fields!ExchangeRate.Value=0, 1, Fields!ExchangeRate.Value)))
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.

SSRS report with tabular model - MDX query to filter parameter data based on Tuple value.

Hello Everyone,
I am working on SSRS report in which a tabular model is being used as a backend.
I want to filter the report parameters which are dependent to other parameters. Like, country, state, and cities drop downs.
All are multi-select parameters. I am using MDX queries to filter the parameters data.
Based on selected one or more countries, the data of states needs to be filtered.
The point is the text which is being displayed in state dropdown for each state name is combination of 3 different members.
So, I created the following Tuple for the same and can see the expected display names in states dropdown.
"("+
[Location].[Code 1].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME +","+
[Location].[Code 2].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME +","+
[Location].[Descr].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME +")"
Now, when I would like filter the cities data based on selected one or more states, I am unable to pass the multiple Tuples (more than one selected Tuples) as parameter for cities dropdown.
The following is my query for City parameter. It is working well when I select only one State from the dropdown.
However, when I select multiple states, it is unable to convert the Tuple into SET in ELSE part of IIF condition specified in following query.
Can anybody help me how to resolve the error that I am getting about STRTOSET function?
Or
Are there any other alternatives to achieve this requirement?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Query:
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS [City].[City Business].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION
MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterValue] AS [City].[City Business].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME
MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS [City].[City Business].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL
SELECT {[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue], [Measures].[ParameterLevel]} ON COLUMNS ,
[City].[City Business].Children ON ROWS
FROM (
SELECT ( STRTOSET(@State, CONSTRAINED) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [Model])
WHERE ( IIF( STRTOSET(@State).Count= 1,
STRTOTUPLE(@State, CONSTRAINED),
STRTOSET("{
("+
[Location].[Code 1].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME +","+
[Location].[Code 2].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME +","+
[Location].[Descr].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME
+ ")
}",CONSTRAINED )) ) CELL PROPERTIES VALUE

How to get the Multiplied value between measure and a dimension base on user selection using dynamically

Hi Experts,
We had developed a cube with the Measures and Dimensions.
I had a requirment as the measures should be muliplied by the currency value of different countries and get me the results.
For Example.
In SSRS report, the user will select "EUR" then the measures should multiply with the EUR based value for the particular month and get the result in the SSRS report. If the user select any other currency value, that should multiply with the measure
value and get the result in SSRS report.
How to do that in SSAS Cube.
Thanks
Shashi

Hi ,
If I understand your requirement correctly , then you need currency Conversion.
you can refer this links.

Timestamp data type on S[range C on E] constant value-based range windows

Hello,
My questiong is about how can we use timestamp value on S[range C on E] constant value-based range windows.
I have a LotEvent which i should collect and sum lastQty data for last ten minutes of market time (sendDate)
A normal [range 600] query does not work for me because i would like to use the exact time which data has been generated by the market (sendDate).
Here is the event;
public class LotEvent{
     private Double totalQty;
     private float lastQty;
     private String symbol;
     private String messageType;
     private Integer dataInterval;
     private String sendDate;
send date is always in "MM-dd-yyyy HH:mm:ss" format.
I have tried to use the following query but this gives an error;
Invalid statement: "select symbol, sum(lastQty) as lastQty, 10 AS dataInterval
+from lotInputChannel [range INTERVAL "0 0:0:15.0" DAY TO SECOND on >>sendDate<<]+
group by symbol"
Cause: Datatype char is not valid for value based windows
Action: Use a valid datatype for value based windows>
Here is the CQL;
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<wlevs:config xmlns:wlevs="http://www.bea.com/ns/wlevs/config/application">
<processor>
<name>lotProcTenMin</name>
<rules>
     <query id="tenMin"> <![CDATA[select symbol, sum(lastQty) as lastQty, 10 AS dataInterval
            from lotInputChannel [range INTERVAL "0 00:10:00.0" DAY TO SECOND on sendDate]
group by symbol]]> </query>
</rules>
</processor>
</wlevs:config>
i have tried this cql after changing the sendDate data type to long which is the time in milliseconds value but it did not work.
select symbol, sum(lastQty) as lastQty, 10 AS dataInterval
from lotInputChannel [range INTERVAL "0 00:10:00.0" DAY TO SECOND on to_timestamp(sendDate)]
group by symbol
The query above does not work also when sendDate is a String in "MM-dd-yyyy HH:mm:ss" format
At last i tried the following query with sendDate as time in milliseconds (long) value. It works! but i still would like to know how to use timestamp in S[range C on E] queries
select symbol, sum(lastQty) as lastQty, 10 AS dataInterval
from lotInputChannel [range *600000* on sendDate]
group by symbol
public class LotEvent{
     private Double totalQty;
     private float lastQty;
     private String symbol;
     private String messageType;
     private Integer dataInterval;
     private long sendDate;
Could anybody please help me with this issue?
Edited by: user8830791 on 01-Aug-2011 06:39

It seems that you should configure the channel "lotInputChannel" as an application timestamped channel.
You can do that as follows -
- Have "sendDate" as a long and let its unit be milliseconds
- Use the following child elements of <channel> for the "lotInputChannel"
<wlevs:application-timestamped is-total-order="true">
<wlevs:expression>sendDate*1000*1000</wlevs:expression>
</wlevs:application-timestamped>
The multiplication by 10^6 is required since the units need to be converted into nanos
With this, you could use the query -
select symbol, sum(lastQty) as lastQty, 10 AS dataInterval
from lotInputChannel [range 10 minutes]
group by symbol
Of course, for the above to work, a requirement is that the value of "sendDate" is non-decreasing.
That is if e1 is before e2 in the "lotInputChannel" then e1.sendDate <= e2.sendDate

OLAP on 11g and Materialised Views with Multiple Value-Based Hierarchies

Hello OLAPians
I am trying to setup Orable BIEE to report on an OLAP cube with pre-aggregated data. As OBIEE is not able to hook into the OLAP directly i have to create an SQL cubeview.
Currently i am on a 10g OLAP environment and am using the oracle sample SQL cubeview generator to create an SQLview of my cube.
The cube itself has multiple dimensions and these dimensions have multiple VALUE-based (ragged) hierarchies and dimension members can be shared across hierarchies also.
Initially i had a problem running the view generator plugin because there is a bug within it that does not finish if there are multiple value-based hierarchies present. I was able to get around this by manually editing the limitmap for the cubeview and manually creating the SQL view.
The question that i want to ask is how robust is the 11g materialised views with multiple value-based hierarchies and the sharing of dimension members across different hierarchies?
Has anyone successfully been able to create a cubeview and import it into OBIEE without the hassle of manually editing the limitmap?
A problem arises with the value-based setup whereby if the client creates a newer depth in the ragged hierarchy, i need to manually create the limitmap and the cube-view over again, and then re-map the BI Administration mappings.

The simple answer to your question,
how robust is the 11g materialised views with multiple value-based hierarchies...?is that materialized views are not supported on top of value-based hierarchies in 11g. The reason is that it is not possible to write a reasonable SQL statement that aggregates a fact over a value-based hierarchy. Such a SQL statement is necessary if we want to create a rewritable MV on top of the cube.
But I suspect this is not what you are really asking. If you are trying to set up OBIEE on top of the cube in 10g using the view generator, then you will probably want to use the "ET VIEWS" that are generated automatically in 11g. These are generated whether or not you enable materialized views on top of your cube. I am not aware of any issues with the generated value-based hierarchy view support in 11g. Members may be shared between value hierarchies and you will not need to generate or modify limit maps.

Has anyone setup BIEE with OLAP 10g using value-based dimension hierarchies

I just wanted to know if it is possible to setup BIEE with 10g using multple dimensions containing multiple value-based hierarchies?
I know this involves using the OLAP Cube View Generator to create an sql view of the cube data.
I have been able to get this to work with nine dimensions all containing a single value-based hierarchy bar one which had four value-based hierarchies. But as soon as i have multiple hierarchies in multiple dimensions it seems to go haywire and i cannot get the sql view to return correct data.
I thought i would post on the BI side to see if anyone has been successful in creating a BIEE setup like this?

Value - based Auditing vs. Continuous Auditing

Hi, I just learned about auditing in Oracle. Can anyone help, what is the difference between value - based auditing and continuous auditing?
Thanks in advance

Value based auditing is actually to capture the changes done over the actual values and is done using triggers . Using trigger's old and new keywords, one can capture the value changes and push them to a table for the record.
I have never heard about something called continuous auditing. May be you meant the standard auditing which is essentially to capture the statement type being executed. This kind of auditing merely would tell you that these many number of DML's(for example) got executed over the table.

Value based auditing

Hi,
what is the best way to implement value based auditing? Usually you have to use triggers, but can I also do it with data changed captue?
Peter

Hi,
thx for the link. I already know this page. But I need all the values that have been changed.
On the page you gave me you can find:
"The audit trail does not store information about any data values that might be involved in the audited statement.
For example, old and new data values of updated rows are not stored when an UPDATE statement is audited.
However, this specialized type of auditing can be performed on DML statements involving tables by using database triggers. "
I don't want to use triggers. My question is - do I get eather OLD or NEW - valus with data change capture?

Changing a boolean value based on two buttons

I know that this is a ridiculously simple question, but I've been having trouble with it.
How would you set a boolean value based on the input from two other boolean values? Essentially what I want, in pseudocode, is this:
boolA = true
if (boolB)
     boolA = false
if (boolC)
     boolA = true
It should be really simple to do, but I can't figure it out. The problem is getting it to stay false, for example, after boolB goes back to false, and not just to have it only momentarily go to false. I want it to stay false until boolC goes to true, regardless of what boolB does after that. Any advice?
Thanks,
Logan Williams

I would say implies is close to what was asked for. However, the only issue is that for the case where both B and C are false, the logic shows that there is no change to A. It is initially True, but if it happens to be False because of further changes, there is nothing in the If statements to change the logic. And that is what is asked for. That the Result stays False even when B goes back to False. But the Implies function says that F and F must be True.
As described
B         C         Result A
T          T          T (because C is evaluated 2nd)
T          F          F
F          T          T
F          F          x (initially T, but the code shown and what is asked for is actually no change from previous state)
   Implies Truth Table
B         C         Result A

Pre-compute for Value based dimensions in AWM 10g

hi,
I created a compressed partitioned MOLAP cube in OWB 10.2.0.3 based on some value based dimensions.
I selected the hierarchy in value based dimensions for pre-compute, but it did display the hierarchy in OWB.
I deployed the cube into Analytical workspace AWM 10g(10.2.0.3A).It created PRECOMPUTE(NA) in the relation statement for the value based dimensions.
Is it that value based dimensions cannot be pre-computed (at the heirarchy) in AWM 10g ?
Regards
Chakri

For reference, I believe this error was due to the deletion and recreation of a standard form AW formula without full restoration of the formula's PROPERTY values. AWXML (and hence 10g OWB/AWM) will not work correctly if you remove PROPERTY values from objects.

Values based on properties

can i select the value based on the properties of the particluar dimension.
plz see the below code:
*SELECT(%ENTITY1%,"[ENTITY]",INTCO,"[ID]"=%INTCO%)
*RUNALLOCATION
*FACTOR = -1
*DIM P_ACCT WHAT=311030,311036; WHERE=EP-111500
*DIM ENTITY WHAT=; WHERE=%ENTITY1%
*ENDALLOCATION
*COMMIT

I tried using REC statement, but that also is not working.
*XDIM_MEMBERSET ACTIVITY = NA
*XDIM_MEMBERSET P_DATASRC = INPUT
*XDIM_MEMBERSET RPTCURRENCY = DC
*XDIM_MEMBERSET MEASURES = PERIODIC
*WHEN P_ACCT
*IS "311030"
*REC(FACTOR = -1,ENTITY=INTCO.ENTITY)
*ENDWHEN
After running the package, it throws the error as:
RUN LOGIC: Property value not found

Can we precompute a value based dimension ?

Hi,
I do not know how to precompute/summarize a value based dimension in AWM 10g.
One of my value based dimension in AWM 10 g (10.2.0.3A) showed pre-compute already done , but the aggmap of the cube did not show any precompute clause in relation statement for this dimension.
1) Is AWM 10.2.0.3 A taking care of this internally ? How can i verify this ?
2) If not, how can i set pre-compute for a value based dimension by hand ?
(provided the precompute clause remains even after cube is maintained).

Hi All,
Thanks for your replies.
Let me give you a background . Iam creating a cube over some value based dimensions in OWB (10.2.0.3) and then deploying them to AW .Iam loading the cube and dimensions using OWB mappings.
Any other changes or objects not possible through OWB are done directly in AWM (10.2.0.3A)
Stuart,
Yes this a duplicate thread i posted for almost the same problem statement.
David,
1st option - precompute valueset is defaulting to all members.
a) Are you talking about the valueset <DIMENSION>_PARENTREL(<VSET>)
I did an rpr on <VSET> , it just returned the hierarchy name. This vset would be there for any dimension ( even without precompute) and would just return the default heirarchy
b) or Are you referring to PRECOMPUTE(<VSET>).
As mentioned, this VSET is not coming up in the aggmap.
2nd option - Modify the XML template with the PreComputeClause to say Expressiontype="INCLUDE" instead of "EXCLUDE". You can then delete the cube and recreate it from your XML.
The Model view of AWM (10.2.0.3A) was showing the 'All' box as checked for this value based dimension, but the aggmap did not show any PRECOMPUTE clause. Also, when i checked the XML of the cube (in which the dimension is used), there was no pre-compute clause for only this dimension. This might be due to my AWM version iam using.What is your AWM version ?
How do i check if pre-compute is working ?
Here is the info about my cube :
Dimensions : TIME (Levels: Year,Quarter,Month) ,LOB,CUST and FIN
All dimension except TIME are value based.
Settings : compressed, partitioned along TIME.MONTH
I want to fully precompute TIME and LOB .
CUST and FIN should not be precomputed.
Thanks

Value based reports

Hi friends,
I have column which contains 3 values , ex :Column A contains values 1,2,3.
and i have 3 reports.like Rep1,Rep2,and Rep3.
If i click on value 1 , it should go to Rep1........
How can i give?
Thanks....

Thanks....Not sure if 11G lets you do this out of the box but in 10G There is two approaches (should work in 11G) :
1) Create a case statement on the values and construct a GOURL path to the target reports, format the column as HTML and the values will be presented as a hyperlink.
2) Put the three target reports in a seperate sections on a dashboard page , create a dashboard prompt to select which report you want , follow this guide to dynamically show the report section based on the value in the dashboard prompt and pass the correct value to the prompt using GOURL : http://obiee101.blogspot.com/2010/07/obiee-using-prompt-as-report-selector.html
Neither approaches are that elegant, cant you just give all three choices to the end user via nav links and let them choose which one they want to navigate to? Much easier, out of the box and easier to maintain.
