Ago and Todate functions very slow
I have been playing around with the Ago and Todate functions in BI EE (based on data from the Global schema which I imported into BI EE Administrator) but I find these functions very slow to return the data in an Answers report. Has anyone else found this?
What's the size of the data set?
Yes, I'm currently experiencing it. Running on a 600-700k rows tables...
However, there're 2 things that might help:
a) we're doing development with cache off - enabling cache - makes report come instantly...
b) make sure the metrics have correct levels set up - i.e. it's sometimes advantageous to have several duplicates of 1 metric just for this purpose...with different levels....
Please let me know if you find other ways to improve performance...

I want to use the AGO and TODATE functions to calculate a measure for the selected year and the year before, as well as a year--o date measure, but cannot get it to work. It fails with the following error:
A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 22040] To use TODATE function, the storage level of the query ('[D_TIJD.TIJDKEY]') must be a static level.
I have setup a time dimensions in which I can drill up and down and followed exactly the same steps that were layed out in the Oracle training activity guide, but so far without any luck. From Mark Rittman's articles I learned that using these functions is not as straight forward as one might hink. Does anybody have a working example of this?
Regards,
PaulTo reply to my own question. It appears I got it working, that is, the error message problem is solved, but I still have questions on how to use these functions.
To get it to work, I added the primary key D_TIJD.TIJDKEY at the level of the lowest grain in my dimension (level tab).
What I still wonder is how to make it select the right values. I have the following hierarchy: bookyear - bookperiod - week. A bookperiod contains 4 or 5 weeks (4,4,5 in a quarter), so 12 periods in one year. I defined a measure at period level and another at that level with the ago function, that should return the figures for that same period of the year before. My first question is, whether to go back 12 periods or 52 weeks (which is the lowest grain in my dimension)?
The second question is how to use a combination of TODATE and AGO so that if I calculate the current period (of which only 2 weeks are passed), I also only want to include the same two weeks for that period one year ago in order to make a correct comparison. How do I do that??? -
Nested Ago and Todate function problem
Hi,
in my rpd i have following Time hierarchy:
Year
Quarter
Month
and a fact table Fact Shop which contains Monthly measure "Number of Hearing Aids Delivered".
I must calculate PY_QTD, PY_YTD versions of above measure.
I have tried to use built-in Time Functions Ago and ToDate in the following way:
PY_QTD
Todate(Ago("Number of Hearing Aids Delivered",1,"Time.Year"), "Time.Quarter")
PY_YTD
Todate(Ago("Number of Hearing Aids Delivered",1,"Time.Year"), "Time.Year")
but when i check consistency i have error which says approximately "You can nest Ago and ToDate functions".
There's another way, to calculate it? Can you help?
Thanks
GiancarloSo u r referring PY as previous year ;)
Here u go;
it’s a combination of AGO and TODATE.
You create a value – let’s say Sales MTD by just following normal process…then you create a logical column with the following formula AGO (Sales MTD, Month Dim, 12)
that should give you a MTD measure you’re looking for. I hope this is useful. Just dont use both function in single logical column....use seperate by first creating YTD n then AGO function to create previous year data.
For ur case use to calculate PY_YTD use below:
Create logical column
Aids Delivered YTD with formula as TODATE("Number of Hearing Aids Delivered"), "Time.Year")
and then create another logical column as
Aids Delivered PY_YTD with formula as AGO("Aids Delivered YTD","Time.Year",1)
This will work for sure.... -
How Achieve timedseries calculations with out using AGO And ToDate function
Hi,,
1)
How Achieve timedseries calculations with out using AGO And ToDate functionion
this question asking in interview ..is it possible..?
if yes please response as soon as possible..
2) i have 2 cloumns Product and value...
client requirement is they need ranks based on Value ..in dashboard .using dashboard prompt..edit box...if user enter any number (ex :5 ) report should show top 5 ranks if he enter 20 should be top 20 ranks..
how to achive this ?
thanks,
rajConsider yor first question:
1. Yes, we can create timeseries measures without using AGO and TODATE
1. Create ALIAS of fact tabe in the physical layer
2. Join the Time id from the ALIAS fact table with the YAGO_MONTH_ID column from your time dimension table (For calculating Year Ago variants) similarly join with MAGO_MONTH_ID column for Month Ago measures.
3.Pull the ALIAS tables as an additional Logical table source in the Lgical layer
4.Keep the mapping of the columns from the ALIAS table as its is
5. For e.g If you pick Revenue from the Year Ago Alias table it will give you the "Prior Year Revenue"
See if this helps you -
Generic "AGO" and "TODATE" functions
Hi, I'd like to find out if it's possible to have "generic" date functionality that applies at whatever date level the user chooses. For example, instead of having:
Day Sales
Prior Day Sales
Year Ago Day Sales
Week Sales
Prior Week Sales
Year Ago Week Sales
Month Sales
Prior Month Sales
Year Ago Month Sales
Quarter Sales
Prior Quarter Sales
Year Ago Quarter Sales
Year Sales
Prior Year Sales
instead I'd like to have:
Sales
Prior Period Sales
Year Ago Period Sales
It looks like the "AGO" function, for instance, requires the time level to be put in. But I'd rather NOT put a specific time level in - and have that default to whatever the user asks for in the report. i.e. if they put "Jan 2009" in the report then it knows it's at the month level. If they put "Q3 2009" in it would know to do it at the quarter level, etc.
Is there any way to do this?
Thanks in advance,

Alright, then the problem may be software related.
To eliminate the OS as the problem, boot into your Recovery partition and elect to reinstall OS X. You will lose none of your files, only having the OS install a 'fresh' copy (always best to have a backup, of course, but this is non-destructive).
Same problem?

My iPod touch is downloading and updating apps very slow more than an hour.
My iPod touch 4th gen 32gb verson 4.3.1 is downloading and updating apps very slow more than an hour. I just got it a day ago and I backed up all my apps music and pictures and videos from iTunes. Few months ago I had an iPod touch but I lost it and it was working fine. Luckily before I lost it i backed up everything to iTunes so now everything that was in my old iPod is now in my new iPod. Anyways, When I first bought it I straight away backed up everything and saw that i had many updates on my apps. I started updating it all at once but even the first one was not loading at all and mty ipod was hanging many times during the updates so i cancelled all the updates. i even tried it on my computer and it was taking forever but my laptop does updating and downloading apps slower than my ipod so that doesnt matter. Even when I download an app on my iPod now its take more that an hour. So i was wondering, is my iPod slow cause I backed up too many things when i just got it . I have about 120 apps 150 plus photos and 70 videos and I backed it up all in one night on the day i got my ipod. So now I'm restoring my iPod and updating it to IOS 5 and see what happens. Hopefully it will be faster then but I still need to know what is main problem of m iPod hanging and slow updating/downloading. Need a reply ASAP. Thanks
Still you can switch it off while syncing.
You can also do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears) -
Nesting of AGO or TODATE functions with differing level arguments is not supported
I have a column in BMM which calculates the Year-To-Date Sales. This function uses the ToDate function to caculate the YTD.
I need to develop another formula column which shows the last-year's YTD.
I develop this formula in BMM by AGO on the YTD column which already uses a ToDate function.
In BI Answers when selecting this column, results in the below message:

How to get Last Year Sales and YTD Sales without using AGO and TODATE?
Hi all,
I have got Company and Time dimensions and Sales Fact. My requirement is to get Last Year sales for each company without using AGO function and YTD without using TODATE function. (Due to performance issue as AGO and TODATE do not insert a Cache entry).
Can someone please help me to achieve my requirement? Thanks in advance.Hi Satya,
Thanks again for your reply. To start with I don't have data for the years 2012 and 2011 to test as I am using SH sample schema from Oracle. I have applied your solution but it does not seem to be working for the previous years like 2000, 2001. My requirement is to have a dashboard prompt "YEAR" and let the user choose whatever year he wants.
Please have a look at the column formulas of my analysis (As per your solution) :
***here B_YEAR is replaced by CALENDAR_YEAR.
Amount: "F1 Sales"."Amount"
AmountYTD: FILTER("F1 Sales"."Amount" USING "D1 Time"."CALENDAR_YEAR" =YEAR(CURRENT_DATE))
Amount LY: FILTER("F1 Sales"."Amount" USING "D1 Time"."CALENDAR_YEAR" =YEAR(CURRENT_DATE)-1)and the physical query generated by BI Server: (as you can see I have got a filter CALENDAR_YEAR= 2000)
WITH
SAWITH0 AS (select sum(T1074.AMOUNT_SOLD) as c1,
sum(case when T1035.CALENDAR_YEAR = TO_NUMBER(TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('2012-05-03' , 'YYYY-MM-DD'), 'yyyy'), '9999') then T1074.AMOUNT_SOLD end ) as c2,
sum(case when TO_NUMBER(TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('2012-05-03' , 'YYYY-MM-DD'), 'yyyy'), '9999') - 1 = T1035.CALENDAR_YEAR then T1074.AMOUNT_SOLD end ) as c3,
T1035.CALENDAR_MONTH_DESC as c4,
T1035.CALENDAR_YEAR as c5,
T1035.CALENDAR_MONTH_ID as c6
from
TIMES T1035 /* D1 Time */ ,
SALES T1074 /* F1 Sales */
where ( T1035.CALENDAR_YEAR = 2000 and T1035.TIME_ID = T1074.TIME_ID )
group by T1035.CALENDAR_MONTH_DESC, T1035.CALENDAR_MONTH_ID, T1035.CALENDAR_YEAR)

When using the camera downloader in Adobe Bridge CS6 with Nikon D5200 we are unable to see previews of the photos and it is very slow to download. The issue occurs under a the users rights, but not under admin level. This is a new issue.
Hi Jdentremont,
Lync client gets user photos by first querying the Address Book Web Query (ABWQ) service on the server, which is exposed through the Distribution List Expansion web service. The client receives
the image file and then copies it to the user's cache to avoid downloading the image each time it needs to be displayed. The attribute values returned from the query are also stored in the cached Address Book Service entry for the user. The Address Book Service
deletes all cached images every 24 hours, which means that it can take up to 24 hours for new user images to be updated in the cache on the server.
To troubleshoot your problem, please follow the steps below:
1. Navigate to
“X:\share\1-WebServices-1\ABfiles\000000000\000000000” folder. (ABS file share)
You should see some photo files in this folder as the following screenshot.
2. Delete all the files in this folder.
3. On test PC, delete local cache files.
%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\[email protected]
4. Sign-in Lync with the test account.
5. Go back to the ABS file share, check if there is any Photo file in the folder.
Best regards,
Eric

***Everything else seems fine -
I own a 13-inch MacBook Pro and for the past day, my wifi on my laptop says I only have two bars of connection and is running very slow,but all of my other devices such as my iPhone and iPad are connecting perfectly to the wifi. How can I fix this? I have tried to shut my laptop off and let it rest and I have also re-started my wifi router three different times. Someone please help me with this problem so I can begin to use my laptop again as I take it to school and use it for class.
Thanks so much!FCP, and all software on OSX, has a few different "preference" files (the extension is .plist), which store all your user settings. Each time you resize a window, change a setting, anything, this file is re-written. Kinda easy to see how they would become corrupt every now and then.
-Close FCP
-Navigate to User>Library>Preferences and delete com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
-Navigate to User>Library>Preferences>Final Cut Pro User Data and delete Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs
-Empty your trash
Relaunch FCP and see if that worked.
Download FCP Rescue to make this process easier in the future. When you have FCP running really smooth, open FCP Rescue and create a backup of your preference files. If it starts acting wanky, just run FCP Rescue and Restore your backup preferences. Works really slick, and it's free.
EDIT: Or use the really simple explaination that X posted as I was typing. -

I’ve got a new MacBookair11 2weeks ago and I am very happy with it. Today I’ve tried to synchronize it via icloud with my ipad and I have lost the camera.
Looking through help in internet I found out that I had to reset the SMC. I did exactly as per instructions given but with no luck.
Is there any other solutions that will fix my camera for facetime and iphoto?
Thanks for your helpMacBook Air (Mid 2013): FaceTime HD Camera might not work after OS X 10.8.5 update:

Any ideas? In the history may iPad never crashed but after updating to iOS 5 it crashed every 30 minutes, and browsing is very slowAny ideas? In the history may iPad never crashed but after updating to iOS 5 it crashed every 30 minutes, and browsing is very slow
I found the reason why our iPads are slow after iOS 5!!!!!!!
What you need to do is this:
1) launch settings, go to mail contacts and calendars, go to fetch new data, advanced, and set iCloud to fetch.
2) go back and set an interval of when to fetch. Mine is set for thirty minutes.
3) make sure on top push is still on, that means that all your emails will still be pushed, but all the iCloud sync (contacts, calendars, reminders, bookmarks) will happen at the interval you choose.
Restart the device. Your performance should be 10x faster! No more keyboard lag, nothing! Doing this puts less stress on the A4 chip, which we know we need every bit we can get with it now!!!
Optional:
1) in the settings, go to safari.
2) clear all history and cookies/data
3) enable private browsing. One of the biggest reasons why devices are slow is because it keeps all the history and cookies in the RAM. You need more RAM to make things faster. By turning on private browsing, it never records it!
