Bar chart query - bar subdivisions.

Hi,
I have created a bar chart that is subdivided into two colour reb and blue representing the values yes and no. a count of these yes and no's are performed and displayed on the bar in their appropriate positions.
I am wondering how i could subdivide the bar once more by not only having a red and blue subdivision to represent yes and no, but have the red subdivision divided into 2 colours where one division represents 'big' and the other division represents 'small'.
the bar chart i chose to create initially is a stacked bar chart. (im assuming this is the correct one to continue using for this)
if i go to chart expert->data-> in the 'on change of' section , i have a formula which represent values on the x-axis and i have the field from the database which contains the values 'yes' and 'no'.
in the 'show values' section, I have the field from the database which contains a formula for the count of the 'yes's and 'no's.
the formula i ysed for this is:
if ({MyDB.yes/nofield} = 'YES') Then
1 else 0
can anyone help me with this problem (as i am in dire straits with this one)
thanks.

Hi James
If the group is on a database field, then you won't be able to manipulate the legend howver if it is a formula field then you can put the values that you want to see in the legend.
Or you can create a mock legend with text boxes and the desired values.
Hope this helps!!

Legend needs to display Prompt values / Remove filters from chart query

Hi
I have 2 questions for the same chart so I hope it's OK to add them in one post.
Firstly I have created a chart & added three Select List filters which work fine, the query is below, problem is that when I change back to '-ALL-' I get no data, it has filtered out all records as no data matches the value of '-ALL-' does anyone know the code to get around this?
My chart query;
select null link, P_MONTH AS MONTH, SUM(CALLS) AS data
from DATA.MAIN_DATA
WHERE WAREHOUSE = :P1_WAREHOUSE
AND ANS_UNANS = :P1_ANS_UNANS
AND PRODUCT = :P1_PRODUCT
GROUP BY P_MONTH
As I will have several queries like the one above for different options on the same chart, I would like the Legend to show what the user has chosen each time the options are changed ie;
Something like the bolded text in the query to display the chosen values in the legend;
select null link, P_MONTH AS MONTH, SUM(CALLS) AS *'P1_WAREHOUSE' || 'P1_ANS_UNANS' || 'P1_PRODUCT'*
from DATA.MAIN_DATA
WHERE WAREHOUSE = :P1_WAREHOUSE
AND ANS_UNANS = :P1_ANS_UNANS
AND PRODUCT = :P1_PRODUCT
GROUP BY P_MONTH
Any ideas/suggests?

Unable to edit wizard created SVG chart query

Hi,
I have a problem with an SVG chart that one of the HTML DB wizards created.
On the generated page the wizard created a selection list item named P30_SHOW.
This item allows to choose a table column based on which an SVG pie chart is generated.
The automatically generated chart query is:
select 'f?p=106:26:&SESSION.:::RP,26:P26_CHART_FILTER,P26_VALUE:'||:P30_SHOW||','||"&P30_SHOW.",
"&P30_SHOW.", count(*)
from "TESTTABLE"
group by 'f?p=106:26:&SESSION.:::RP,26:P26_CHART_FILTER,P26_VALUE:'||:P30_SHOW||','||"&P30_SHOW.",
"&P30_SHOW."
The page with selection list and chart worked fine at first.
But then, when I edited the chart's width on the respective 'SVG Chart Attributes' tab and pressed
the 'Apply Changes' button I got the following error:
'Query cannot be parsed, please check the syntax of your query. (ORA-01741: illegal zero-length identifier)'
I only changed the chart's width, I did not touch the chart's query at all.
My theory is that HTML DB tries to validate the correctness of the chart's query.
However, the query references a session variable (P30_SHOW) that is
not defined in my development session. Consequently, the query is not valid in the
development context and is refused by HTML DB.
Now I have two questions:
1. Is my analysis correct, or are there different reasons for the error I do encounter?
2. How can I get around the problem? I'd like to use the automatically generated charts,
but also want to be able to edit them.
Thanks in advance for helpful comments.
Regards Holger

Scott,
I imported the application using the import/install process. A new application ID was created but was not changed in the chart query. The link was generated by the application wizard. The chart query link is below:
select 'f?p=103:2:&SESSION.:::RP,2:P2_CHART_FILTER,P2_VALUE:'||:P6_SHOW||','||"&P6_SHOW.", "&P6_SHOW.", count(*)
from "O_DATA_COLLECTION_POINTS"
group by 'f?p=103:2:&SESSION.:::RP,2:P2_CHART_FILTER,P2_VALUE:'||:P6_SHOW||','||"&P6_SHOW.", "&P6_SHOW."
The new application id is 101. It is impossible to modify this query because of message:
"1 error has occurred
Query cannot be parsed, please check the syntax of your query. (ORA-01741: illegal zero-length identifier"
This happens even if nothing is changed in the query but just the apply changes button is pressed.
I had a similar problem with the breadcrumbs menu. The link was also pointing to the old application id 103 instead of the new application id 101. The way I got round that was to delete the breadcrumb template and create a new one. I then had to go through all the pages that referenced that and reset the breadcrumbs menu template in the region definition.
Thanks Arjen

Chart Query and Failed to parse SQL query

Hi,
first of all, this is not a question. It is a reminder for me and maybe for someone with the same problem.
I just fell over this for the 123124 time.
I have a 3D Chart Query
select sum(order_ok) value,
      count(*) maximum_value
from      v_dialer_campaign
where campaign_uuid = :P300_CAMPAIGN_IDSaving fails with
"1 error has occurred Failed to parse SQL query!" ...
Saving the query without validation works, but does not show any result in the chart.
v_dialer_campaign is a view selecting from a view in a mssql db over database link and HS.
running the select in sqlplus or toad works.
Without any trace on freetds/unixodb/hs side, i would have not found the following line:
[FreeTDS][SQL Server]The data types nvarchar and text are incompatible in the equal to operator.[FreeTDS][SQL Server]Statement(s) could not be prepared.
Solution:
with q as (select :P300_CAMPAIGN_ID val from dual)
select     sum(order_ok) value,
     count(*) maximum_value
from     v_dialer_campaign
where     campaign_uuid in ( select val from q)Maybe the error output when validating the query should be included in the APEX error message.
Same solution applies for dynamic LOV's reading from HS using a where clause.

I tried your first query on Apex 3.2 and it created a nice dial chart.
Is there any ORA-xxxxx error along with the "failed to parse SQL query" message? Did you double check column & table name spelling?
P.S. The second query is invalid (a superfluous comma after the second column).

Chart Query problem

Hi all ,
I am a newbie to Oracle apex and have stuck in an issue . I am using this query for my Chart Source
select NULL link, count() Count VALUE , to_char((TRUNC(ORDER_DATE)),'Month') "Month"*
from "HR"."OEHR_ORDERS"
group by to_char((TRUNC(ORDER_DATE)),'Month')
order by 1 desc
but it gives this error when i click next
1 error has occurred
Failed to parse SQL query!
select NULL link, count() Count VALUE , to_char((TRUNC(ORDER_DATE)),'Month') "Month" from "HR"."OEHR_ORDERS" group by to_char((TRUNC(ORDER_DATE)),'Month') order by 1 desc*
Certain queries can only be executed when running your application, if your query appears syntactically correct, you can save your query without validation (see options below query source).
what should i do and what am i doing wrong ? as this query gives the correct result if i run it in SQL window
thanks for the help in advance

In your first query, you gave the count(*) column two names COUNT and Value. That I think was your only mistake.
The column ordering might not matter if you only have one value column, but if you want a single chart query to represent more than one line, then the ordering matters.
In my application I use an Apex item to hold the entire query as text, including v(...) bindings, and displays 1 to 50 lines, dynamically depending on the number of value columns. The names of the lines are derived from the column names.

Stacked Bar Chart Query

Hello everyone,
I need some help on a query for a Stacked Bar Chart.
I copied the following query from the "How To" Pages for a Stacked Bar (HTML DB 2 Day Developer) and adjusted it according to my tables:
SELECT NULL l,
sales_month,
revenue
FROM (
SELECT TO_CHAR(o.order_timestamp,'Mon YYYY') sales_month,
SUM(oi.quantity * oi.unit_price) revenue,
TO_DATE(to_char(o.order_timestamp,'Mon YYYY'),'Mon YYYY') sales_month_order
FROM DEMO_PRODUCT_INFO p,
DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS oi,
DEMO_ORDERS o
WHERE o.order_timestamp <= (trunc(sysdate,'MON')-1)
AND o.order_timestamp > (trunc(sysdate-365,'MON'))
AND o.order_id = oi.order_id
AND oi.product_id = p.product_id
AND p.category = 'Phones'
GROUP BY TO_CHAR(o.order_timestamp,'Mon YYYY')
ORDER BY sales_month_order
The problem now that I have is, that the results are not always correct.
That means, that the numbers for every month that has 31 days is incorrect.
I created a chart for 2005 and the numbers for Jan, March, May, July and so on are wrong. I found out that they always include numbers from the next (first) day of the next month, that means that the January number contains the numbers from the 1st of February, that March number contains the numbers of the 1st of April and so on. The only difference of my query is that I did not use a timestamp but rather a date. Can someone tell me what to do to solve the problem without changing the column to timestamp? I assume it has something to do with rounding up or "truncating" the date!?
I appreciate your help!!

Is there nobody out there, how might give me a hint ?? :-(

Jfreecharts- stacked bar chart query

Hi all,
I am using JfreeCharts for building an application which reports the usage metrics of two servers over a period of time.
Each server does a number of operations which can be broadly grouped under 6 heads and these broad divisions are being used for reporting.
When I use Stacked bar chart for creating the bar graph image, the order in which the bars get displayed is wierd. The dates start from 25th Feb to 28th Feb. Hence I am expecting the bars for the data from the dates 25th... 26th...27th and 28th; but the bars that come up are the 25th ... 26th... 28th and the 27th... Is there a group utility which can be used to order the grouping??? I am posting my code used for grouping the data.
map = new KeyToGroupMap("G1");
renderer = new GroupedStackedBarRenderer();
for (int i = 0; i < (metricsList2[0].size()); i++)
map.mapKeyToGroup(((XxccrCropsdbColourgrp)(metricsList2[0]).get(i)).getAttributeName1(), ((XxccrCropsdbColourgrp) (metricsList2[0]).get(i)).getAttributeName2());
renderer.setSeriesToGroupMap(map);
From the database the groups being sent are G1,G2,G3 and G4 which correspond to the 4 dates mentioned above.
Help will be highly appreciated....
Madhu

The actual problem is when I am adding data to the map for the grouping , the data is getting jumbled up... The groups which are added to the map are not added in order.

Bar chart query

Hi,
I have a bar chart and on the bars in the chart there are numbers. Im wondering how to get these numbers into the legend?
Also, the legend contains some text detailing a count that i setup. (eg count@mywork). How can I alter this text to display what I want displayed?
Thanks.

Hi James
If the group is on a database field, then you won't be able to manipulate the legend howver if it is a formula field then you can put the values that you want to see in the legend.

Charting Query: How to show detailed chart when clicked

Hi , I have a flash chart that shows monthly summary values . When user clicks on a bar ( say for month of JAN), I want to show another chart based on data for JAN only. I am trying to figure out how to show my detail chart when user clicks on a summary bar.
Can someone advise how can I pass value from parent chart to child chart?
Thanks
Aali
Edited by: aali on 02-Feb-2010 00:30

Hi Aali,
Create 2 pages, one for summary the other for detailed (assuming P1 & P2). The query for your first chart needs to link to the second including a month value. It might look something like this:
select 'f?p=&APP_ID.:2:'||:app_session||'::::P2_MONTH:'||MONTH||':' link, MONTH label, SUM(SALES) value1
from TBL_DETAILS
group by MONTH
-- :2: is the page you're linking to (detailed chart)
-- P2_MONTH should be a hidden item on that page to store the month value
-- MONTH is the value to be passed...this could be some substr(date_col, 4,6) or somethingCreate your Hidden P2_MONTH item making sure it is NOT Hidden and Protected. Page 2 query something like:
select null link, DAY label, SUM(SALES) value1, SUM(COSTS) value2, COUNT(STAFF) value3
from TBL_DETAILS
where MONTH = :P2_MONTH
group by DAYI don't have info on your tables though so hopefully this is helps.

Control Chart Query

Dear Experts
As part of SAP QM Implementation we are implementing control chart functionality to get graphical representation against measured values for pre-defined parameters. I am facing two issues mainly:
1. When I try to calculate control limits (clicking calculator button) getting message "Control limits for track 1 could not be calculated". MICs has the upper limit and lower limit maintained which I can see in QAMV table for the inspection lots.
2. In the attached control chart , I am getting Upper Limit, Lower Limit and the Valuated Result in graphical form, when I try to display the inspection date, for the characteristics against inspection lot, I get lost. System is showing some date 7/14/14 against all the characteristics which I am not sure how to achieve.
Settings I made:
Sampling type: Fixed sample
Valuation mode: SPC inspection
W/O inspection point
Sample size: 5
Chart type:115 Shewhart chart for X bar/USA
MIC Settings:
Quantitative / Lower / Upper Sp. Limit / Sampling Procedure / SPC Characteristics / Summerised Recording / Required Char.
Inspection plan setting is:
SPC criterion : 020 task list char/material
Base qty : 1KG
Control Chart Configurations:
1. Control Chart Type -115
a) Change Control Limit not checked
b) Characteristics Type- Fixed Scope, Record measured values
c) Reference Axis (x-axis) - Time of Creation ( Do I need to change here to "Object Number" or "Time Of Inspection" ?)
Any input will be highly appreciated.
Regards
SK

Hello,
For Control limits your chart needs to closed. and offcourse for calculation u need to have more than one inspection lot. then system will calculate the same. UD is also required against lots.

Crystal reports - charting query

Hi.
I have a database with the following fields:
'companyname' which contains the values:
company1
company2
company3
company4
company5
company6
'value' which contains the company values:
11
14
16
13
72
26
and a 'date' field.
I have created a CReport that displays information between the dates specified. I am displaying a bar chart with the company names on the x-axis and values on the y axis.
So i specify a 'from' and 'to' date to display the data and it returns a graph with data.
On the x-axis is company3, company4, company5. This then means that company1, company2 and company6 have a value of zero between the dates specified, thus the graph doesnt display those company names.
Im wondering how i can get it to display all the company names (company1 to company6) and for company 1, company2 and company6, just display a value of zero?
Please can you help me with this?
thank you.
J

If the rest of the report is dependant on filtering the data based on the date but you still want to show company names that have no data for that date range then you could insert a subreport that returns all data (or filters it down to the 6). Create a formula that outputs the value if the datefield falls within the date range and outputs 0 if it does not. Use this formula as the value field in the chart.

Column Chart Query

Hi,
I am trying to re-create a chart from excel in Application Express and after much playing I have got the data into one series and ordered correctly, is there any way which I can colour some of the lines in the the series a different colour?
Cheers
David
Edited by: OracleInTheNHS on 10-Jul-2011 08:21

Hi David,
What version of Application Express are you using?
Based on your posts, I'm not 100% sure what results you're trying to achieve. Are you hoping to achieve an overlay effect, like this: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=36648:11 - or a Group By Series effect: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=36648:82 ? If it's neither of those looks, then maybe you could take a look at the AnyChart chart gallery, and pinpoint the type of chart you're hoping to create: http://www.anychart.com/products/anychart/gallery/3D-Column-Cone-Pyramid-and-Cylinder-Charts.php.
Custom colours can be applied to your chart via the 'Custom Colors' option on the Chart Attributes page. In APEX 4.1, we now support a new chart attribute called 'Set Color Level', which allows you to specify whether you want the specified colours to applied per series (i.e. even bar in your series will have the same colour) or per point (i.e. each bar in your series will have a different colour). So the 'Custom Colors' option might meet your needs. If you've got a test case on apex.oracle.com, I'd be happy to take a look - just post the workspace name and temporary login credentials to access it.

How to use Item value in chart query

Hi Folks,
I am looking to use calander item value in sql query used to populate flash chart. I tried with following query where P2_DATE1 is the calander item name. This says no data found. I am not sure if I am missing some thing with BUTTON settings which I am using to put data into chart.
Select null "link",to_date(entry_date,'dd-mon-yy hh:mi:ss') "Time in GMT", to_number(load_avg_5,'99.99') "Load Avg 5 Min" from oracle_ocm.top_load_avg --where trunc(entry_date)=:P2_DATE1
I am new to APEX
Please help

Here are few things for you to try:
Hardcode the value and see if it works. "where trunc(entry_date) = to_date('01-May-2010', 'dd-Mon-yyyy')". If it works, then click Session link at the bottom of the page, and check the value of the item P2_DATE1. If null, then you have a problem. If not null, please ensure that you use TO_DATE function as shown above with proper format mask.
Good luck.

Pie Chart / Query : Top 3 and Remainder

Hi
I am trying to develop a template, which shows various exception information to the end user. There are approximately 20 exception scenarios which are analysed each night and data stored in the cube. This information is then related back to the end user via a simple web template.
I can show that data in a table nicely.
I have created an additional query with a "Top 3" condition applied, which results in the 3 exceptions that contribute the mos to the total being displayed. This query can then be used as the source for a pie chart, so the user can see graphically which are the most important exceptions to address.
I have now been asked to include a "remainder" item in that pie chart, or not have the pie chart add up to 100%. What the user wants to see, is what the top 3 exceptions were, and what all the other exceptions added up to, essentially the difference between 100% and the sum of the contribution (%) of the top 3.
I can write a query which displays the top 3, and include in that a result row which shows the sum of the percentages. So, for example, it will display the 3 and the total will be 87%, meaning the remaining errors contributed 13%, but how would I get this as an additional row in the query?
Alternately, is it possible to have a pie chart that doesn't add up to 100%. A pie chart that is incomplete in essence?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Andrew

Hi Andrew,
To show the value as a percentage and not have the total be 100%, you need to calculate the value in the query. Create a key figure to calculate the percentage and use a condition to only show the top 3. Conditions wont effect the totals or percentages so the total percentage won't add up to 100.
I don't think it's possible to show a 'other' value with the remainder.
Kind regards,
Alex

Hello there. So I hope I can explain this sufficiently:
OUT OF THE WAY: 11g 4.1.1
I'm going to simplify my data so that it is clear what I'm looking to do.
I want to have a line chart grouped by date. Let's say monthly...this is easy to do if you are dealing with one specific date and some value you can build the series against with case statements. I've done that a million times.
The columns of data I'm dealing with are as follows:
CREATE_DT(create date)
RETIRE_DT(retire date)
MACHINE_TYPE(type of machine)
So lets say I want to see a line chart where each line(data point) is a MACHINE_TYPE and each bin is a month. That month should be any machine with a CREATE_DT below then end of the month and a RETIRE_DT which is either Greater then the end of the month or is NULL(ala hasn't been retired yet).
In the query for a chart which is
SELECT LINK,LABEL,CASE()"",CASE()"",CASE()"" from TABLE GROUP BY ROLLUP(VALUE)I guess I'm not seeing how to be able to put these values together so that it walks month by month and figures out the values and puts them in the correct "bin" of time along the X axis of the chart.
I hope I'm being semi clear as it is hard to explain this scenario. Nope. Clear as mud.
If time is plotted against the X axis, what measure is plotted on the Y?
