Auto populating a column prompt based on another column prompt

Hi,
Is it possible to auto-populate a column prompt, using the value of another column prompt?
My situation is described as below.
I have created a new dashboard prompt. This contains 2 column prompts, for example say col1 and col2. Both are multi-select prompts.
col1 values - a,b,c,d.....
col2 values - 5,2,8,7.....
col1 and col2 values are picked from different tables. Also we have a mapping table which maps col1 and col2. Say a-5, b-10, c-1, d-3 etc...
My requirement is, if a user selects values "a,d" for col1 prompt, col2 prompt must be automatically populated by values "5,3".
Is this possible? If so, please help.
Thanks,
kc.

If the actual filter criteria is only col1 the instead of displaying the values in the second prompt, make a separate report and only choose only the 2nd col in that report and make col1 as prompted and select appropriate title for that report.Place the report above the actual report in dashboard. So it will display only those records which are chosen in col1 from the prompt.

Programatically Assigning Column Value Based on Another Column

I have a problem as follows:
My database table has the following setup:
There may be many gift numbers the same, however many different recipient numbers for each gift.
The receipient number should increment from 1-X based on the gift number, for example, if the gift number is the same then the receipient number should increment for that gift.
Gift Number
Recipient Number
1
1
1
2
1
3
2
1
3
1
3
2
The programmatic code for inserting a new row would be:
Check if gift number already exsists in database.
-if it does exsist then find latest and increment current receipient number by one for receipment number
-if it does not exsit set receipient number at 1
How do i do this?

Your use case has some flaws which you should think about before trying to implement it.
1) think about what happens if multiple users try to insert a record at the same time. What can happen? How do you want to handle this situation?
2) do you really need the number to be gap less? The use case can be implemented easily if you don't have this restriction.
3) The table should have the technical primary key to avoid pk clashes due to multiple inserts at one time.
Now, if you have a technical pk as primary key, you can setup a unique key on both of the other columns which prevents that somehow you get duplicates there.
You let the user insert the gift number and calculate the recipient number as max(recipient number)+1. Then you commit the record. If you don't get an error you are finished, if you get an error you add 1 to the recipient number and try to commit again, until the insert works.

How to re-calculate a column value based on another column value in the same ADF Table row

Hi,
I'm using Jdeveloper 11.1.2.3.0.
I have an adf table with 2 columns, columnA and columnB.
When the value changed in ColumnA,
1) i need to call a PLSQL and update the ColumnB value that is returned from PLSQL.
2) Show a warning message if the existing value in ColumnB is different from the one that is returned from PLSQL.
Can anybody suggest how can i accomplish this?
Thanks,
Vinod

hi user,
if you have inputtext means have a valuechangelistener
in that call your pl/sql function supply input value to the appropriate function then grab the result of the function. then bind the column inputtext and compare with it. then raise your warning using FacesMessage classes.

Default value of prompt based on another request

Hello:
I have a requirement where I need to set default values of prompts based on another request.
The prompt is a Date Prompt.
I tried it using presentation variable, and writing sql query, where is says " WHERE promo_id= @{variable}"
but it is still not working.
Please let me know the workaround for this issue.
Thank you.

How is the End Date determined for your BETWEEN operator? I would assume that is variable. Also, is the second report on another dashboard page or on the same page? Assuming both reports are on the same page, do the below. If not, you can use the same prompts on the second dashboard page. Set the scope to "dashboard" and the selection the user makes carries to the second page.
The easiest way is to have 3 Dashboard prompts: Promo_ID, Start_Dt, and End_Date. Set these prompts to PVs: pvPromoID, pvStartDate, and pvEndDate, respectively.
Filter report one on pvPromoID and pvStartDate.
Filter the second report on pvPromoID and use pvStartDate in the filter of the Date column of report two. Assuming the BETWEEN values are variable, then you can write the following on the Date column of your second report:
"Table Name"."Date ColumnName" <= '@{pvStartDate}' AND Table name"."Date Column Name" <='{EndDate}'
And on your Promo column, use the filter "Table Name".Promo = '@{pvPromoID}'
When the user selects the Promo ID, Start Date and End Date from the prompts, both the first and second reports will be filtered accordingly.

How to Fill list in excel based on another columns cell value

Hello,
I am facing issue while binding data to list i want to bind list or filter list based on another columns cell value

If your list is a series of rows with column headers like the following:
Column A
Column B
1
Apple
1
Banana
1
Orange
2
Pineapple
2
Cucumber
2
Watermelon
Then you can do this will Excel's built in filter functions. If you select the entire data table and then go to "DATA" then click the "FILTER" button a drop down will appear next to both headers (Column A and Column B in this case). You
can then select the data you would like filtered from either column and Excel will hide that entire row.

Print out a column value only if another column has a specific value (CASE Statement)

Hello all,
I tried many hours to find a solution for the following request but wasn't successful. Maybe you could help me.
I've using the already existing SQL Views in Microsoft Service Manager to do some basic reporting about my tickets.There is no closed date in the activity tickets so I decided to print out the lastmodified timestamp when the status is "closed".
That's my query:
SELECT DISTINCT
dbo.DisplayStringView.DisplayName AS Status,
CASE WHEN dbo.DisplayStringView.DisplayName = 'Closed' THEN dbo.DisplayStringView.LastModified ELSE 'NO CLOSED Date' END AS ClosedDate
FROM dbo.MTV_System$WorkItem$Activity$ManualActivity LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.DisplayStringView ON dbo.MTV_System$WorkItem$Activity$ManualActivity.Status_8895EC8D_2CBF_0D9D_E8EC_524DEFA00014 = dbo.DisplayStringView.LTStringId
Unfortunatelly I'm not getting the value from dbo.DisplayStringView.LastModified. SQL outputs that it is not possible to convert the string to date/time.
I think there is a problem with the CASE statement in combination with a value select.
Any ideas how to print out a column value only if another column has a specific value?

I think it is the other way if you want the missing date shown as a string.
CASE
WHEN
dbo.DisplayStringView.DisplayName
=
'Closed'
THEN
Convert( varchar(10),dbo.DisplayStringView.LastModified
, 101) ELSE
'NO CLOSED Date'
END
AS
ClosedDate

How to copy one column BLOB value into another column of another database.

How to copy one column BLOB value into another column of another database.
BLOB value contains word document.
I thought of copy the BLOB value into a text file and then update the new column value by the same text in textfile. Will this work?
Is there any other better way to do this?

You're welcome
BLOB fields contains binary data. I don't think you can do this
Also if I view the BLOB as text. Can I copy it and insert into the new database.
I think your options are as I said. Datapump or CTAS

Radio group in classic report based on another column on the same row.

Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
Application Express 4.1.0.00.32
How can I have a radio group column based on an LOV utilizing another column on the same row of the report?
For example: what if I had a survey application and depending on the likert scale that was assigned to the question there would be different possible answer choices:
Question 1 on row 1 of the report: The class instructor was friendly?
Likert scale choice is Agreement.
Choices on Radio Group: Strongly Agree, Agree, Undecided, Strongly Disagree
Question 2 on row 2 of the report: The class offered good materials?
Likert scale choice is Quality.
Choices on Radio Group: Excellent, Below Average, Average, Above Average, Excellent
The radio group can change per row depending on the Likert scale assigned to the question which is assigned to a different column on the row.
Can LOV utilize the column? :
SELECT scale_text
FROM scale_choices
WHERE scale_category_choice_id = 2 <<= this would be the Likert scale identifier
ORDER
BY display_order

Filter column based on another column - OBIEE 11g

Hi, I have kind of a strange requirement. I'm trying to build a dashboard that lets a user see data for the current day, last week, last month, or last year. I'm going to create a presentation variable called "date_range" where the user can choose one of those 4 options.
Based on this, I've defined a column in answers with the following formula:
cast
case
when 1 = 0 then "Query Time"."Date"
when @{date_range}{'Day'} = 'Day' then Current_Date
when @{date_range}{'Week'} = 'Week' then TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY, -7, CURRENT_DATE)
when @{date_range}{'Day'} = 'Month' then TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY, -30, CURRENT_DATE)
when @{date_range}{'Day'} = 'Year' then TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY, -365, CURRENT_DATE)
else TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY, -10000, CURRENT_DATE)
end as DATE
Based on the 4 presentation variable, this should give the proper "start date" of when to pull data.
Now I've added the actual date column from the date dimension. But I need to put a filter on the date dimension date column that says it's greater than or equal to the calculated column above. How do I do that?
Thanks,
Scott

I always expect what you're expecting, but you can't filter a column on another column. The solution is just to write one formula that returns a literal, so it will be
case when (your date column) >= (your long formula) then 'Y' else 'N' end
Then filter that column on 'Y'.

Auto populating the Date/Time Field in a Column

I'm having an issue with the a Date and Time Column type auto populating the current date and time correctly. I've put the =Now() function in the calculated value box. I get the correct date and I get a time but the time is wrong, its
on Pacific Time and my regional settings on the site are Central Time. I can't find any way to specify use central time. is this a bug on microsoft's end or mine? It was working yesterday and not today.

check what time zone is your central admin is set to
using
http://<CentralAdminUrl>/_layouts/regionalsetng.aspxand if its pointing to pst you will get pst result .you will see the options wil time zone selected and also some other like calender etc
if you want to change reginaol time for your site so to site settings ==> under site adminstration
you will see regional settings where you can set the time zone it will look like this :

Count Distinct based on another column in the same table

Hello,
My question in short: is is it possible to add a new column to a view which holds the DISTINCT COUNTS of values/domains of another column in the same view?
For example, in the below table the column "Distinct Count of Occurence" shows how many distinct values a person has in the Occurence column. So AAA has 1 and 2 therefore it is 2 distinct values etc.
My issues is that I can retrieve unique values bu Count (Select Occurence)but I can not add the new column that would add the records to the corresponding Persons in the above table.
Is there an easy way to achieve this on the DWH level or should it be done with MDX in the cube?
Thanks

Hi,
Below a solution to use the view by adding a column with window functioning, maybe this will help.
CREATE TABLE #TMP
PERSON VARCHAR(10),
OCCURENCE SMALLINT
--DROP TABLE #TMP
INSERT INTO #TMP(PERSON,OCCURENCE)
VALUES
('AAA','1'),
('AAA','2'),
('BBB','1'),
('BBB','1'),
('BBB','1'),
('CCC','1'),
('CCC','2'),
('CCC','3');
--TRUNCATE TABLE #TMP
WITH CTE
AS
SELECT PERSON
,OCCURENCE
,ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY PERSON ORDER BY OCCURENCE) AS RN
FROM #TMP
SELECT PERSON, MAX(RN) AS RN
FROM CTE
GROUP BY PERSON

Search one column for value in another column

Hello,
I am trying to take the whole value from one column, and see if that string appears anywhere in another colmn. So if one row in one column has the value "cat", I want to see if that string appears anywhere in any row in another column: so a row with the value "The cat sat on the mat" would return true.
I have tried:
select term from pic_lib_keywords, csv
where contains (csv.nhm_field_asset_description,pic_lib_keywords.term) >0;
But I get the error:
ORA-20000: Oracle Text error:
DRG-50901: text query parser syntax error on line 1, column 32
20000. 00000 - "%s"
*Cause:    The stored procedure 'raise_application_error'
was called which causes this error to be generated.
*Action:   Correct the problem as described in the error message or contact
the application administrator or DBA for more information.
Can you use 2 columns in this way, or does the search term have to be a literal? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you.

It works for me, as shown below.
