Aletr log filter expression

Hi,
I have oracle10g running and i have the filters setup on the alert log filter expression as shown below:
.*ORA-0*(54|1142|1146|942|2063|2062|28501|3136|02019|2050|1580|25307|1652|01555|16146|1013|03135|01013|20005|16401)\D.*
Now i want to add the filter for the error: ORA-16146
How can i append this error to the list mentioned above. I am not able to figure out the syntax.
Can someone help me with the syntax to append another error which is not ora-0*
Thanks in advance.
Philip.

believe i have the anser.
even though this error is not ora-0* but it is ora-16146
but i went ahead and added the 16146 at the end of the filter to look like
.*ORA-0*(54|1142|1146|942|2063|2062|28501|3136|02019|2050|1580|25307|1652|01555|16146|1013|03135|01013|20005|16401|16146)\D.*
Thanks.

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
kind regards

SQL in reports filter expression

Hi All,
I want to filter the report using the 'in' operator and specify a SQL as the expression. I want apex to be use the result of the query as the list of values for the 'in' operator. Is this supported?
for example can I specify the filter as 'user_name in (select name from user_name_tab where group_id = 10)'
Thanks

Filter expression producing different results after upgrade to 11.1.1.7

Hello,
We recently did an upgrade and noticed that on a number of reports where we're using the FILTER expression that the numbers are very inflated. Where we are not using the FILTER expression the numbers are as expected. In the example below we ran the 'Bookings' report in 10g and came up with one number and ran the same report in 11g (11.1.1.7.0) after the upgrade and got two different results. The data source is the same database for each envrionment. Also, in running the physical SQL generated by the 10g and 11g version of the report we get different the inflated numbers from the 11g SQL. Any ideas on what might be happening or causing the issue?
10g report: 2016-Q3......Bookings..........72,017
11g report: 2016-Q3......Bookings..........239,659
This is the simple FILTER expression that is being used in the column formula on the report itself for this particular scenario which produces different results in 10g and 11g.

Thank you for the info. They are definitely different values since ones on the header and the other is on the lines. As the "Won Opportunity" logical column is mapped to multiple LTS it appears the OBI 11 uses a different alogorthim to determine the most efficient table to use in the query generation vs 10g. I'll need to spend some time researching the impact to adding a 'sort' to the LTS. I'm hoping that there's a way to get OBI to use similar logic relative to 10g in how it generated the table priority.
Thx again,
Mike

How to use the prompted value in the filter expression

Hi
Is it possible to use the prompted value in the filter expression?
My requirement is that user will be prompted for a date field and I need to filter the records such that the records are displayed for the last 5 weeks from the date entered by the user.
If somehow I know how to use the prompted value in the filter expression then this requirement is easy to be done. If this is possible, please guide me?
If there are other ways to acheive the desired results then please suggest.
Thanks

Struggling with MDX Filter Expression for Previous Month in SSRS

I am trying to query only data from the previous month.
I looked at my Month member and the it looks like so... [Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2015-04-01T00:00:00]
Here is my filter expression:
StrToMember ("[Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[" + format(now(),"yyyy-MM") + "-01T00:00:00]" ).lag(1)
I am not getting any errors, I am just getting getting "No rows found" - however there is certainly data in last month. I even tried removing the lag() function thinking that might be causing it, but there are still no errors, just no rows returned.
Here is the complete query:
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Completes] } ON COLUMNS, NON EMPTY { ([Date].[Calendar].[Date].ALLMEMBERS ) } DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME ON ROWS FROM ( SELECT ( StrToMember ("[Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[" +
format(now(),"yyyy-MM") + "-01T00:00:00]" ) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [Data Warehouse])

Hi S,
I can't tell exactly what your issue is, but I can give you a couple of tips to help diagnose it.
Try the following queries. They aren't fixes, just simplifications of your query to help you diagnose where the issue is.
--This query will let you what your string function is returning with what you want.
With member measures.x as "[Date].[Calendar].[Month].&["
+ format(now(),"yyyy-MM") + "-01T00:00:00]"
member measures.y as [Date].[Calendar].currentmember.uniquename
select {measures.x,measures.y} on 0
[Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2015-04-01T00:00:00] on 1
from [data warehouse]
--This query will give you the date without lag
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Completes] } ON COLUMNS, StrToMember ("[Date].[Calendar].[Month].&["
+ format(now(),"yyyy-MM") + "-01T00:00:00]" ) on rows FROM [Data Warehouse])
--This query will give you the date with lag
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Completes] } ON COLUMNS, [Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2015-04-23T00:00:00].lag(1) on rows FROM [Data Warehouse])
--This query will give you the date with lag
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Completes] } ON COLUMNS, StrToMember ("[Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[" + format(now(),"yyyy-MM") + "-01T00:00:00]" ).lag(1) on rows FROM [Data Warehouse])
--This query will show you the member without lag
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Completes] } ON COLUMNS, NON EMPTY
{ ([Date].[Calendar].[Date].ALLMEMBERS ) } DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME ON ROWS FROM ( SELECT ( StrToMember ("[Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2015-04-01T00:00:00]" ) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [Data Warehouse])

Using report parameter in data set filter expression with an SSAS data source

I have an SSRS report with an SSAS data source.
Report parameters:
Param1 - text, single select
Param2 - text, multi-select
Dataset:
In Query Designer, I want to include Param1 as a filter expression so I can have "Dimension1 Begins with @Param2". I'm not sure the exact syntax to make param2 work in this.
The point is to filter my data set on param1. If A is selected for param1, I want the data set to have the filter saying "Dimension1 begins with A"
Anyone know how to use a report parameter in the dataset filter expression for an ssas data source?

hi,
try this maybe the dates you are comparing are not in the same format.
I test data template in EBS but not with dates.
to_date(date,'dd/mm/YY') between to_date(:p_from_date ,'dd/mm/YY') and to_date(:p_to_date ,'dd/mm/YY')
if dont works try to put values insted of your parameter like :
to_date(date,'dd/mm/YY') between to_date(:p_from_date ,'10/01/07') and to_date(:p_to_date ,'01/12/07') ... put dates where u can have some values in report...
if dont work then try to print the values of the 2 parameters and the date of the select somwhere in ur report to see what you have in it..
hope it helps..
Regards Joe.

I5Grid MII 14 MDO Filter Expression

Hi Guys,
I am building a sample webpage to display MDO query data using I5Grid.
I am not sure if I am missing any lines. attached is my code and the webpage is empty with no errors on the browser console
If I remove the below lines, the grid appears, but i need the filter expression and be assigned at runtime.
dashBoard.getQueryObject().setFilterExpr("[dept] = CSEE");
dashboard.update(true);
Kindly help me with this.

Tried that one to Sriram, same result.
Few other points to note.
1.In the browser console there is a 404 error on
XMII/JavaScript/resources/messages_en_US.properties
2. In the browser console, filter expression is blank. could this mean anything?

Using Variable within Filter expression will not parse.

IN ODI 11.1.1.3.0, I defined a Variable (SelectionDate) of type "Alphanumeric", Default Value = 01-JAN-1970 with the select query: select to_char( SYSDATE , 'DD-MON-YYYY') from dual.
I intend to use this variable as a scenario variable (parameter) that receives a value in the form of 'DD-MON-YYYY', from the execution environment.
I refreshed the variable and it received the value 16-JUN-2011 (today's date). So far so good.
I then defined an Interface and used the variable in a filter expression:
Active Filter: Checked
Implementation Tab:
SOURCE_VIEW.SELECTION_DATE BETWEEN TO_DATE('#PROJECT1.SelectionDate', 'DD-MON-YYYY') AND (TO_DATE('#PROJECT1.SelectionDate', 'DD-MON-YYYY') + 1)
Execute on :Source
When verifying the expression (click on the checkmark in the implementation tab) I always get: Expression is not valid for this DBMS. java.sql.SQLDataException: ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected.
I cannot get the filter to parse. Thank you for your ideas of what might be wrong.
Jose.

Yes, it worked when placed in the package.
I think the expression editor is sending the string as it is written to the database in order to parse it, without replaceing the #variable for the actual value. Anyway thanks.
Jose

MDX Filter Expression

Hi,
I am trying to get a filter expression to work. I am trying to create a filter that will choose the current year. This will be part of a filter condition that will be a YTD filter. I am trying to get the year part working first. Here is what I have so far. I get this database error:
A database error occured. The database error text is: Failed to execute MDX query. Reason: Invalid MDX command with ). (WIS 10901)
Here is the MDS statement:
<FILTER EXPRESSION="FormatNumber(Year(CurrentDate());'####')">
<CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal">
<CONSTANT CAPTION="1"></CONSTANT>
</CONDITION></FILTER>
Thank you for your help,
Aaron

I figured out the issue. I cannot use formatnumber() Year() and getdate() in MDX. I am using BO over SAP BW.
What I was trying to do is create a filter to automatically calculate the current month and year for a YTD filter. I found out that the MDX YTD() function can be used but the function does not know the current date, so you have to use a prompt to have the user enter the current date. If there is another way I am up for suggestions.
Thank you
Aaron

Filter Object with Filter Expression error.

Hello everyone!
I'm trying to put together the following expression for a filter to be used in a report:
Order Date -> object name = M1 - (number, measure)
Current Date -> object name = M2 - (number, measure)
Comparison between the two:
<EXPRESSION> IIF (@ Select (M1) = @ Select (M2), 1.0) </EXPRESSION>
object name 3
So far everything works fine.
When I create a report in Web and I put the filter M3 = 1, it filters properly.
I thought of putting the filter in a filter object in the universe, like this:
<FILTER EXPRESSION = "Select @ (M3)"> <CONDITION
OPERATORCONDITION = "Equal"> <CONSTANT CAPTION="1"/></CONDITION></FILTER>
Just as it is in Olap universes best practices written by Didier. (Page 12), as following example:
Filter with a calculated member referenced in the filter expression:
<FILTER EXPRESSION="@Select(Calendar Year\My Calculated Member)"><CONDITION
OPERATORCONDITION="Equal"><CONSTANT CAPTION="1"/></CONDITION></FILTER
But does not work when I put the query, the error is dpscommand. And I have no idea where the error is.
The strange thing is it works, if I filter the query directly. ( Query filter: M3 equal 1).
Do you have any tips? or something I could try that I have the M3 as a filter object?
Tks a lot!

I am working on BO XI R3 - SP2 and the basead query is on SAP BW 7.0.

SQL View does not display unless data is returned by the query. Is that normal?
Also, none of these options shows the literal result of the expression we built, i.e.:
expression: CAST(YEAR(TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH, -24, CURRENT_DATE)) as CHAR)
result: *2008*
Having the ability to test expressions and see their results would be very helpful in debugging. If anyone knows how to do that please share!
Thanks!
MacOk, Probably shoud have figured this out before, but in response to my own question, the way to view the result of an expression is to add the expression as a column and include it in the Table Presentation.

SSRS dataset filter expression using OR

I have a dataset that I need to set a filter for. What I need the filter to do is check 3 different fields to see if either one of them are in a parameter. The parameter is multi-value. So, I have a parameter set to 1, 2, 3. I need the dataset to return
records where either Field A, B, or C are IN 1, 2, 3.
Anyone know how to do this? I tried to have the filter expression = Fields!A.Value or Fields!B.Value or Fields!C.Value then the dataset filter operator "IN" and the dataset filter value = Parameter, but I just get an error on the dataset filter
(cannot evaluate filter expression error)

Hello,
Mulitple expressions added to SSRS dataset filter are evaluated as AND (Expr1 AND Expr1 AND Expr3). If you are looking for a OR like Expr1 Or Expr2 Or Expr3 then you can use this solution explained below.
Dataset Query used for this test:
select *
from (values ('Row1',1,1,4),('Row2',2,1,3),('Row3',3,1,2),('Row4',3,2,2),('Row5',5,3,2),('Row6',5,6,7),('Row7',2,6,7)) x(DataRow,A,B,C)
Report Parameter :
Defined a multi select report parameter named "Parameter1" with string datatype and added values 1, 2, 3.
Dataset Filter Expression:
=Filter(Parameters!Parameter1.Value,CStr(Fields!A.Value)).Length + Filter(Parameters!Parameter1.Value,CStr(Fields!B.Value)).Length + Filter(Parameters!Parameter1.Value,CStr(Fields!C.Value)).Length
The expression above uses the Filter function in SSRS to check if the field A\B\C has any match in the parameter1 mutli select parameter. If yes the length property will return a value > 0. Repeat the expression for all the other fields and add the Values
for length property.
Use > operator in the filter dialogue box
and value as 0 as shown in the snapshot below.
The output is shown below. Row 6 is missing as Field A, B or C doesnt have 1, 2,3 as values. If this is the output you are looking for this solution should work for you.
