A Unique Bex Problem

Hello All,
Heres my problem . i have to display a report which has the list of employees who got terminated.The report format is
Employee Code Employee name Start Date Terminated Date
This information can be derived from "Personnel Actions" datasource in HR.I have the start date and the end date of every Action Type(hired, Terminated,OnHold).
The problem is this. When an employee is hired i have the start date and end date is 12/31/9999.I have one row in my cube.This start date is the start date in my report.
But,When the same employee is terminated.i have one more entry in my cube.This time the start date is his termination date and to date is 12/31/9999, meaning termination is valid till that date.Also the from date in the first row when he as hired changes to his last working day.
Now in my report i want to display Start date and Term Date.Both the information is stored in the same column but two diff rows.
I can only drag a characteristics once in my rows.
how do i achieve this.??
Please provide any comments/suggestions you have..
Regards,
Partho.

Sorry I missed a step
1. Drag employee into rows
2. Create a new structure in Rows
- Create a new selection "Start date" and drag 'action type' Hire
- Create another selection "Term date" and drag 'action type Termination
3. Drag in Calendar dat/From date (with results supressed)
Hope it solves your problem.

The user does not exist or is not unique - workflow problem

I am using Solution Starters Dynamic Management workflow on my Project Server 2010. I was working fine for a year now, but today all workflows were broken when someone tried to submit them to a next stage. "Workflow terminated. An error has occurred
in the workflow."
I tried debbuging the workflow and it seems to be OK, but the problem appears when it needs to assign tasks to the approvers (they are in the Approvers group). When I remove users from the group that represents approvers (and leave that group empty), it
works fine, so I am guessing that users (who need to approve the stage) are the problem. My administrators are saying that there were no updates or changes on AD machine.
I don't have problem with users in any of people picker fields or anywhere else on the site. I am using claims auth.
What could be the reason for this behavior??
These are main errors from the log:
Failed to persist workflow instance: 7dc2e035-cd02-4284-b851-a829e372a809 with error code: 5, instance data size: 29578, internal state: Running, processing id: 1e2211d2-ef7b-4416-90ef-ac041396c200   2f83db27-34da-4275-a42e-0625240af921
The user does not exist or is not unique.

at System.Workflow.ComponentModel.ActivityExecutorDelegateInfo`1.ActivityExecutorDelegateOperation.Run(IWorkflowCoreRuntime workflowCoreRuntime)     at System.Workflow.Runtime.Scheduler.Run()

It appears that this isn't the problem with users, but it is a problem with Office Tasks. This is the main error in ULS logs (same as in the previous post):
"Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. Parameter name: additionalNodes"
I noticed that all content types are gone from my pwa site. Is it possible that my workflow is causing problems when adding tasks because somebody deleted all content types??

Windows 7 64 bit giving BEx Problems. Big time problems (!!)

Hi there, i just got through an issue with BEx connecting to SAP on a laptop using Windows 7. After googling and sdning and SAP noting for a while did not find any suitable answer to this issue which seems strange to me as Windows 7 64 bit is not really a brand new product. The full specs are as follow. Anyone bringing some light into this subject would be very much appreciatted.

Hi Alex ,
SAP GUI for Windows 7.20 and all related applications including SAP Desktop Office Integration / BI Frontend / BW Frontend do not support Office 2010 64bit, only 32bit versions of Office are supported.
This means that when using 64bit operating sytems with SAP GUI for Windows and related components you have to use a 32bit Microsoft Office version .
For your issue , you can check these Notes.

Hi
We have seen these issues when doing certain things when disconnected from BW, eg. renaming of excel tabs where the query is inserted etc. then you are likely to see this issue.
"The "new" 7.0 Analyzer works with a complete different paradigm
than the "old" 3.X one - now an Excel sheet is seen as a "container"
containing items (similar as in the WAD) whereas the old analyzer
works more cell-oriented. Therefore a much stronger dependency now
exists between the items and the sheet, and that's why you can't
rename sheets when the Analyzer is not running.
So in the end this means that we haven't "removed functionality"
but due to a different implementation some things behave different
or can't be used as in the older version."
Hope this is of use.

SQL Developer 1.5: Mysql unique index problem

I experienced a problem with SQL Developer 1.5: uniqueness of multiple fields indexes seems to be lost. On single field indexes it works properly.
As you can see generated code lacks the "UNIQUE" keyword
MySQL DDL:
CREATE TABLE `my_table` (
`aaa` CHAR(20) COLLATE latin1_swedish_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '%',
`bbb` CHAR(4) COLLATE latin1_swedish_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
`ccc` CHAR(4) COLLATE latin1_swedish_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '%',
`ddd` CHAR(4) COLLATE latin1_swedish_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '%',
`eee` CHAR(4) COLLATE latin1_swedish_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '%',
`fff` CHAR(30) COLLATE latin1_swedish_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
`ggg` CHAR(30) COLLATE latin1_swedish_ci DEFAULT NULL,
UNIQUE KEY `All` (`aaa`, `bbb`, `ccc`, `ddd`, `eee`, `fff`, `ggg`),
KEY `key_bbb` (`bbb`),
KEY `key_ccc` (`ccc`)
)ENGINE=MyISAM
ROW_FORMAT=FIXED CHARACTER SET 'latin1' COLLATE 'latin1_swedish_ci';
Generated code:
CREATE TABLE my_table \[...\]
CREATE INDEX All_ ON my_table
aaa,
bbb,
ccc,
ddd,
eee,
fff,
ggg
\[...\]

That looks strange. I created the following three tables in mySQL:
CREATE TABLE `my_table_a` (
`aaa` CHAR(20) ,
`bbb` CHAR(4) ,
UNIQUE KEY `All` (`aaa`, `bbb`),
KEY `key_aaa` (`aaa`),
KEY `key_bbb` (`bbb`)
CREATE TABLE `my_table_b` (
`aaa` CHAR(20) ,
`bbb` CHAR(4) ,
UNIQUE KEY `All` (`aaa`, `bbb`),
UNIQUE KEY `key_aaa` (`aaa`),
KEY `key_bbb` (`bbb`)
CREATE TABLE `my_table_c` (
`aaa` CHAR(20) ,
`bbb` CHAR(4) ,
UNIQUE KEY `All` (`aaa`, `bbb`),
KEY `key_aaa` (`aaa`),
UNIQUE KEY `key_bbb` (`bbb`)
The wrong result can already be seen in the captured model.
Result for my_table_a:
All: NON_UNIQUE
key_aaa: NON_UNIQUE
key_bbb: NON_UNIQUE
Result for my_table_b:
All: UNIQUE
key_aaa: UNIQUE
key_bbb: NON_UNIQUE
Result for my_table_c:
All: NON_UNIQUE
key_aaa: NON_UNIQUE
key_bbb: UNIQUE
So there is at least one case where an index with two segments is remaining UNIQUE. But as soon as the index has three segments, the UNIQUE is lost.
I'll check whether this is a known bug, and if not, I'll create a new bug.

Wolfgang

BEX problem: F4 help to filter values of F4 value list at query execution

Hi all,
description of the problem we face:
at query execution the selection pop-up appears and "ask" for values. To select those values I try the F4 button and receive a long list of e.g. vendors. (Our vendors are compounded to a special characteristic due to several sources.) To select now several individual values from the list I choose the filter button and try to shorten the list by searching with values of the atributes, here by 0NAME of the vendor. From the result shown I choose one value compounded to a unique value of the special characteristic, there are values for vendors which are the same, but with different compound values and of course different meanings.
When I mark one vendor value shown with his compounded value in front of the row, I expect the compounded value will be transferred to the selection pop-up too, but it won't!!
Only the vendor is transferred, so the result of the query shows more information then wanted.
Any solutions for this?
Thank you in advance

Hi Guido,
I dont know any direct solution to your problem, a workaround is
May be add a variable on the Special characterstics, and ask users to enter the Special character also along with your Vendor Code.
As while selecting the vendor user already know special charater value, then can just enter it in Selection screen and restrict the output.
Thanks

Unique IF Problem

Hello Guys,
I have a unique problem with my mapping.
There is a IF condition which checks for number of line items and maps accordingly to the target.
In the else part, if the number of line items is not matched as per a field, am calling an RFC lookup to update the error status into the table and further the mapping wont work.
But unfortunately, IDOC gets created and also the table gets updated with Error status.
Scenario 1:
Number of line items = 5
Actual Line items = 5
So this test scenario should successfuly create an IDOC.
The IDOC do gets created, but also the else parts gets executed.
Scenario 2:
Number of line items = 5
Actual line items in file = 3
So, in this scenario the idoc should not be created and only should update the error status. This scenario is working perfectly.
But am not able to understand why in scenario 1, it is acting weird by executing both the IF and the else condition.
Regards
KRish

That's quite difficult to say, as I don't know what your mapping looks like...
If you do the check on ITEM level, this will normally be the case, because the mapping will go through each ITEM (and it should).
You should perform the check on header level.
Something like
IF NOT count (line items) = coung(Actual Line items) --> throw error
ELSE proceed
As I said, I don't know what your mapping and file structures look like, so it's quite hard for me to imagine what is going on.

Unique FireWire problem...

I have an odd problem. I have a Macbook Pro that is about two years old which went through a bit of a rough patch. Let's just say the keyboard and screen are not working. But the hard drive is still in good shape. Obviously, it's totally useless to me so I bought a new Macbook Pro in January. I would like to transfer my files to my new Mac and got a firewire cable to do so. Since the keyboard is broken, I am using a seperate Apple keyboard plugged into the USB drive. But, when I start the computer and hold down the "T" on the keyboard, it does not successfully go into Target Disk Mode. If you have any advice, please help!

You have the keyboard plugged into the USB drive? That sounds, umm, unusual. Unlike Firewire, most USB devices can't be daisy-chained unless they also include a built-in USB hub.
Did you mean to say that you had the keyboard plugged into a USB port on the old MBP? If not, try doing so.

I think I've got a slightly unique burn problem...maybe I'm just an idiot?

I'm trying to burn a playlist that I created on a DVD-R disk. I've tried updating drives and I installed a new Intel chip from the Dell website... all to no avail. When I click burn playlist to disk, my disk is ejected, when I click burn disk in the corner, I'm informed curtly that "this is not a blank CD" while my disk is again ejected. These are brand new disks, plastic wrapped and everything, so I know that they're blank. I've also tried with multiple disks, and even different types so I know it's not that either. Here's my CD diagnostics information if it helps:
Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 (Build 2600)

If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.
Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.

Drive is empty.
The last failed audio CD burn had error code -128(0xffffff80). It happened on drive E: SAMSUNG CD-R/RW SW-240B on -128(0xffffff80) media at speed 0X.
I'm at my wits end, granted my wits aren't all that great, but still. If anyone can help (Toonz, you seem like an immaculate gentleman) I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

I understand your wanting to burn a playlist to a blank DVD but is this playlist movies or music? If its a music playlist and your wanting to burn some music to the DVD as a backup, you will have to go into iTunes settings/preferences and set the disc format to "Data CD or DVD".

Analyser 3.x that comes with GUI 7.10 works fine.
Our Office Version is 2003.
Anybody knows waht we have to do ?
Thanks in advance.

In continuation....
Some Insights-
The minimum frontend requirements for any backend support pack are available in table: RSFRONTENDINIT
In order to launch new Bex ,the setting has to be made in the new BEx Analyzer, and is called "Launch legacy version from RRMX"
However for some this settng worked for some it didnt ,check below link to tweak settings as needed.
Re: Launch of BEx Analyzer via RRMX, other transaction?
But the important note on FEP for Bex analyzer versions is
Note 970002 - Which BEx Analyzer version is called by RRMX?
it talks the SP level 10 and 12 to be minimum and walks you through different ways to achive the Bex version.
Re: BEx analyzer settings
BEx Query version required
Hope this helps.

Hi,
What do you mean by "extraction part will work here or not" ? You mean to say that extraction from source to BW?
If you want you can have the same old flow as 3.x but the environment will be BI 7.0 then in that case you need query desinger to changer / create the queries.
Hope this helps.

A unique startup problem

After looking through this forum, I haven't been able to find any info on my problem.
My fiance's iBook recently refused to start up. Whenever she attempted to power it up, all she got was the grey screen with the apple, and then the following:
https://webspace.utexas.edu/woodas/Pics/IMG_2657.JPG
The only clue that I have as to what caused this was that she attempted to power down her iBook before leaving for a week. When she got home, she realized that it hadn't actually powered down all the way. She doesn't remember what was on the screen, but she attempted to restart it and this happened.
Interestingly, if I hold "option" when powering on to go to the Startup Manager and then select the hard drive, instead of getting the above image, I get the prohibited symbol.
I have tried resetting the PMU, NVRAM and PRAM. This did nothing except that after reseting the NVRAM and PRAM, the image that shows up when I try to power up looks a little bit different now than it did before.
I have also tried squeezing left of the touchpad and this didn't do anything (this iBook is in the serial # range for the logic board replacement but is past the 3 year limit).
The only thing that I have found to try that I haven't yet is booting from the CD, but I don't have the installation CD yet (I'll get it tommorow).
Sorry, i don't know what OS she is using (OS X I know, but not which version) and I'm not sure what speed the processor is, but I think its 733mhz maybe? I know it has always seemed alot slower to me than it should be. Sorry about my lack of knowledge...this is my first time to lay hands on a mac.
G3

I take it that you saw no display anomalies while booted from the CD?
All seemed normal then, as far as the display is concerned?
When started up from the CD, in Disk Utility, what is the size of the hard drive and how much space remains available on it? Refusing to start up can be a result of a too-full hard drive.
Does she know what version of the OS is installed? If she has upgraded to OS X 10.3 (Panther) or OS X 10.4 (Tiger), she should have the install disc for the one she is using, and that is the install disc you should be using for troubleshooting.
You could try to reset the PRAM and NVRAM in Open Firmware.
Start up in Open Firmware by pressing Command + Option + O + F during startup. This gets you into Open Firmware with a command line and a > prompt.
At the Open Firmware prompt, type: reset-nvram
Press Return.
At the Open Firmware prompt, type: set-defaults
Press Return.
At the Open Firmware prompt, type: reset-all
Press Return.
Example
0 > reset-nvram
Press Return
0 > set-defaults
Press Return
0 > reset-all
Press Return
The reset-all command should restart the iBook. If so, you have successfully reset the Open Firmware settings.
If that doesn't work, if she has not upgraded to a newer version of the OS, but has merely updated OS X 10.2.4 to the most current version of it (OS X 10.2.8), then I would suggest trying an Archive and Install (assuming there is room on the hard drive to do it).

SortedSet unique key problem

i want a SortedSet of patients. each has a unique id and a current heartRate .
i want to sort them by heartRate .
i am getting duplicate entries when the id is constant but the heartRate changes.
please consider this:
SortedSet<Patient>();
public class Patient {
public int id;
public int heartBeat;
public class PatientComparator implements Comparator {
public int compare(Object obj1, Object obj2) {
    Patient p1 = (Patient) obj1; // <------- this downcast works... downcasts are illegal
    Patient p2 = (Patient) obj2; // yet how else can i write the Comparator? i don't get it.
    if(p1.heartBeat > p2.heartBeat) { return(1); }
    if(p1.heartBeat < p2.heartBeat) { return(-1); }
    return(0);
public boolean equals(Object obj1, Object obj2) {
    Patient p1 = (Patient) obj1;
    Patient p2 = (Patient) obj2;
    return(p1.id == p2.id);
summary :
each time the same patient id has heartRate change, i get a new entry in the SortedSet .
the related issue, how could you write a Comparator without a downcast?

The equals method must be implemented in Patient class, not in PatientComparatori am still getting multiple entries even with this implementation:
public class Patient extends Object {
public int id;
public int heartBeat;
public boolean equals(Object obj) {
    return(true); // <---
}further, i am also implementing Comparator this way:
public class PatientComparator implements Comparator<Patient> {
public boolean equals(Patient p1, Patient p2) {
    return(true); // <---
}and i still get multiple entries.
so, what method() does a Set use to guarantee that there are no duplicate entries?
and what key is used to uniquely identify an object in the Collection ?
when mySet.add((MyObj) myObj); i think the process should be:
(1) if myObj already exists in mySet remove it.
(2) add myObj to mySet .
for me, either step #1 is not happening, or there is something wrong with the keys .
i want to make the key patient.id .
