BI 7.0 Stats - Is it supposed to install us the Standard Process Chain?
Hi All,
We understand that Virtual Cubes would obtain the real-time based on what is there in the basic cubes, underlying the Technical Content Multicubes.
We did install all the technical content. Is it supposed to install us the Standard Process Chain for BI Statistics as well to transfer the stats data into the Basic Cubes.?
If not, how do we setup the stats loads to the basic cubes easily....?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,

Hi,
When you install the BI 7.0 stats from teh BI content all the process chains related to it automatically gets installed. But you can see teh correct report only if the DB Stats is uptodate for all the info providers in your system. I mean to say that if all the dataloads to the cube is followed by the DB Stats process only then the coressponding Technical Stats cube gets the correct data. After which you can see teh correct report.
There is no need to create a process chain separately for them. Just you need to keep updating the DB stats for your info providers.

"Syncing"= Is Ipod really supposed to erase all the music I've stored?
Is the Ipod really supposed to erase all the music I've stored? It seems that synching is just a euphemism for "erase all your music"? I use 2 different computers (different states) and I can't figure out how to keep it from erasing everything I've worked to store. Am I just missing the "Please don't erase all my music" box? And shouldn't I be able to transfer music I've loaded on a different "authorized" computer to another one?
thank you for any guidance.Click here and follow the instructions; the iPod shuffle can only contain content from one iTunes library at a time.

If..then..else statement in SQL with 'generalized' conditions in the if sta
it is possible to write something approaching an if..then..else statement in SQL with 'generalized' conditions in the if statement.
Attached is the query for the payment register, in which I've written a series of decode statements, one for each possible value of the payment code. The query works OK - however, its specific and as the number of paycodes expand (and they do), the report won't pick up the new paycode until the code is changed. More importantly, the report won't be correct until someone 'discovers' that a paycode is missing, which might take months.
If I were writing the equivalent of this series of decode statements in Focus, it would be something like this:
DEFINE.......
PAYMED/D12.2 = IF PAYMENT_CD LE 18
THEN PAYMENT_AMT
ELSE 0 ;
PAYIND/D12.2 = IF PAYMENT_CD GE 19 AND PAYMENT_CD LE 49
THEN PAYMENT_AMT
ELSE 0 ;
PAYEXP/D12.2 = IF PAYMENT_CD GE 70
THEN PAYMENT_AMT
ELSE 0 ;
PAYREC/D12.2 = IF PAYMENT_CD GE 50 AND PAYMENT_CD LE 69
THEN PAYMENT_AMT
ELSE 0;
END

As you can see, this is both much easier to write and covers the possibility of expansion of paycodes (expansions always fit in these defined ranges).
My question is, then, is it possible to write something like this in SQL and, if so, could you give me some sample code? (I'm one of those people who learn best from looking at the code as opposed to a set of instructions)Here is one way you could do it.
Create a table that has columns like:
Payment_code varchar2(2),
Effective_Date Date,
Payment_type varchar2(20),
Expiration_Date Date)
Payment type for example could be
I- indemnity
M- medical
R- recovery
E- expenses
Let the table name for example be PAYMENT_CODE.
The select query would look like
SELECT ACCOUNT_NAME,
LOCATION_1,
CLMNT_LAST_NAME,
CLAIM_NBR,
DATE_OF_INJURY,
DATE_CHECK_REGISTER,
PAYEE_NAME_1,
PAYMENT_CD,
SERV_OFC,
CPO_CHECK_NBR,
PAYMENT_FORM,
DECODE(p.payment_type,'E',PAYMENT_AMOUNT,0) expenses,
DECODE(p.payment_type,'I',PAYMENT_AMOUNT,0) indemnity,
DECODE(p.payment_type,'M',PAYMENT_AMOUNT,0) Medical,
DECODE(p.payment_type,'R',PAYMENT_AMOUNT,0) recoveries,
DECODE(PAYMENT_FORM, 'N', PAYMENT_AMT, NULL) NONCASH
FROM &INPUT_TABLES,
PAYMENT_CODE P
WHERE P.PAYMENT_CODE = SOMEINPUT_TABLE.PAYMENT_CODE
and other conditions
The idea is to group all the payment codes into a few groups to reduce the clutter. If there is ever a change to the payment code, you could modify the table and it will be reflected in your select query. -
Oracle states go to OTN for this:If the criteria isn't met I don't want for
Can you easily recover from, bypass or work around the problem? = YES
Does your system or application continue normally after the problem occurs? =
YES
Are the standard features of the system or application still available; is the
loss of service minor? = YES
### Did it work before? If yes, what have you changed? ###
No, We were told this was fixed with 10G so we upgraded to 10G. We have a
report and we want it to execute if it's less than 10 records if not we want a
message to come up that the report needs to be scheduled.
Well we run the report and it displays exceeded record count but the format
still runs so no time saved on the web.
If the record count was exceeded we want to HALT the system and not go any
farther.
Now if we could modify the system message 1825 we would be o.k. But we don't
know if that is going to work. If we could change the message we would be
o.k. with that. that would mean changing the system codes though.
### How is the Report being called (Command line, URL or via Oracle Forms): ###
If false comes back in the beginning then we don't want any report formatting
to be done. Right now the format is done it seems but no data is displayed
because criteria isn't met.
So we dont wnat the formatting to be run when criteria isn't met. But for
some
reason it still runs and takes time.
See we have some reports on the web that can only be ran by date range right
now the clients can only run the reports for a 6 months range.. Well some
clients have a lot smaller record count. So we want to change the way the
reports are ran to a records count. If the count is large than said amount
then a message comes up that states the report has to be scheduled. If the
amount is under said amount then the report runs.
So at this time in the report we do a count then we move onto will the report
run or not if over the amount we want to abort the process but we don't want
the client to see the abort. We definately don't want the client to sit and
wait for the format to run when NO Data is to be returned.
### Error messages and error scenario: ###
So what we want is too see a message "Schedule the report count exceeded" and
NO formatting done. If under amount we want the report to run.
### Provide a detailed step-by-step description of your problem or question: ###
Or is there a way to customize the messages the client / users will see. And
no formatting time for no records returned.

21-SEP-04 15:38:39 GMT
Hi Darlene!!
As talked to you on phone, here are the steps for you to try.
The below has been run as a test case using emp table in scott schema of a database
1) create a summary coloumn say cs_1 in the data model.
2) point the function to count.
3) Point the source to what ever's count you want it to be pointed to(say empno of emp table of
scott schema)
4) create a user parameter say NO_ROWS
5) in its property palette make its data type number and initial value as 1
6) I had teh following query for my report:
select empno, ename from emp
where rownum <= :no_rows
This means that the report that will be generated will consist of a total no of NO_ROWS(that we
shall be specifying at run time). The before report trigger(mentioned in 7 below) shall assure
that whenever we specify NO_ROWS greater than 5 then the report will display a customized pop up
message.
7) create a before report trigger as:
function BeforeReport return boolean is
user_excp EXCEPTION;
begin
if :cs_1 >5 then
raise user_excp;
return (false);
else
return true;
end if;
EXCEPTION
WHEN user_excp then
SRW.MESSAGE(30, 'Data is more please schedule this report:');
raise SRW.PROGRAM_ABORT;
return (false);
end;
This way when u run a report, an argument is asked whether how many rows do you want to be
displayed as in the parameter NO_ROWS. then you specify the number. If that number is greater
than 5(in this case, due to if :cs_1 > 5 then....) then it will pop up a message saying "Data is
more please schedule this report:"
In case you do not want to specify NO_ROWS..then you need not put that and modify the report
query as "select empno, empname from emp;" i.e. without where clause.

New info : Information from the person that did this suggestion step by step.
I tried this step by step, but unfortunately, it doesn't work the way we want.
First with this suggestion, the user needs to choose how many records they
want
to get, or we default a number of records, in order to run the report. The most
important thing is, whenever you specify the statement return false or raise
SRW.PROGRAM_ABORT in the before report trigger, the system message will pop up.
I really hope that people from Oracle would let us know how to customize the
system message or hide it.
23-SEP-04 14:23:04 GMT
New info : I just thought that we have some sort of message, which I guess is
from the database, when we do claim search on client inquiry. I am just
wondering if we could try the same thing to the report.
The some sort of message looks like this on dev box:
Your search exceeded 5000 records and will surpass the capabilities of this
connection. Please narrow the search criteria and resubmit.
It's just a thought, not sure if it's going to work.
When could we have the DBA Make this change. The servlet.properties???

Hi Darlene,
We cannot modify the system messages nor do I think there is a method to hide the system message. The message that was coming is
due to the raise srw.program_abort command, which is the element through which

Hi Darlene,
I am sorry to say that but I don't think there is any any workaround to this because the system message is what is generated by the oracle reports i
nternally. Still if you wish you may refer to the otn discussion forum which is
maintained by teh product management group and post a new thread on it. the link
to the forum is Reports
Also since nothing can be done on our side I don't see any reason to keep this TAR open an

Using the Insert statement in a Java program without hardcoding the data
hello.
this is james mcfadden. i have developed a program called Demo.java, which is used with another program called QueryTableModel.java (a program that allows data to be viewed in a JTable). The Demo.java program displays a menu, connects to a database, allows the user to add data into the database and allows the user to view data that is already in the database. I have a problem with the Demo.java program. I have hardcoded the Insert statement in it. How do you use the Insert statement to put data into a database without hardcoding the data?

I recently purchased an iPhone 5c and for some unknown reason I can't connect to my wireless router's network at home. I've tried establishing a seperate IP address, manually adding the iPhone device, and even spent an hour with Centurylink's IT support and they couldn't figure it out. They said it was an iPhone error. I had an iPhone 3 about 1 1/2 years ago that had the same problem. I ended up getting rid of the phone because I couldn't solve this problem before. I thought a newer phone would not have the same problem.
My phone shows that I'm connected to my home internet, but when I open up network information for my home internet there is no IP Address listed. Safari and my other apps also state that I'm not connected to the internet. I'm ready to sell my phone back and go to an Android since I didn't have trouble connecting with it before. We also have a Macbook and iPad that both connect to the internet just fine. Please....oh please help.I was having the same problem; I tried all the recommended fixes in the "more like this" and nothing worked, but finally found the answer. Try this: http://themiddleofthestreet.blogspot.com/2013/11/if-your-iphone-5s-wont-connect- to-wifi.html

Is the Mini-Dvi adapter suppose to click into the back on the Mac mini?
Is the Mini-Dvi adapter suppose to click into the back on the Mac mini? It does on my mac book but not on the Mac mini. I sort of have to just jam it in there, no nice clicking sound, and it does not feel very secure.
If after 'jamming it in there' it actually works, then at least you know it's the correct type of adapter. However, if it doesn't work, you are definitely not inserting it correctly or into the correct location. In either case, you may have a damaged port - all the connections on the rear when applied correctly with anything like a decent quality standard type connector should work smoothly. You should never have to 'jam' anything into the back of your mini.

Bank statement lines are unreconciled status even after the auto recon
In Cash Management, Bank Statements Loaded, Imported and Reconciled, but for the AP Transactions bank accounts there are few statement lines that are in unreconciled status and few are in reconciled status.
IN bank statement line the Error code was : No matching payment, No matching Open Interface transactions, No matching payment batch,Hi,
1) please check whether you are using the correct bank statement for reconciliation in case if you have multiple bank accounts / Statements.
2) Check whether the payments that were unreconciled were all functional currency or foreign currency payments ...in which case exchange rates might be causing this ..
References:Autoreconciliation Execution Report Shows Exception No Matching Payment Batch [ID 166716.1]
Autoreconciliation Has No Matching Payment and No Matching Payment Batch Errors for Foreign AP Payments [ID 1387334.1]

Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if it frightens you, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password dialog will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
In the dialog, select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if it's not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if it's not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
▹ Restart
from the menu bar. -

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -
Creative Zen 4gb, is it supposed to turn off the display to save the batte
I just bought a Creative Zen 4gb, is it supposed to turn off the display when I'm listening to songs?to save the battery?
Mine doesn't. It just goes dim.Yes, it is possible. On the right hand side of the player is the slider to turn on the player, push the slider upwards to the lock position and the screen will turn off. That is the Hold mode. At this mode, all the buttons would be inaccessible to prevent accidental pressing of the buttons. This is the mode to use when you are just playing music and do not need the display.
To unhold the player, just push the slider to the middle position and all the way down to turn it off. -
I tried to update to newest version via pc. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase so it says, but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes anymore and is stuck on a screen displaying an itunes icon with a usb icon.
oke i'm not done with the whole thing, but i'm doing that right now. Most of the advice I've already read didn't work and at a certain point it said something about shutting down programs then restart. but i notice that there are some pretty important system things in that list and i don't want to mess up my pc :s i'm not a pc genius... and because i'm dutch and my pc-language is in dutch I often have trouble translating and well... i don't always understand the technical stuff in all the articles -_-

Erased all content on 3G but now won't sync with iTunes. Error states, "This iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started." I don't want phone service on this old 3G. Just want to use it as an iTouch. Any suggestions?
Type "Apple Mobile Device service " into the search bar at the top of this page by "Support"

I am replacing my existing 320 GB SATA hard drive that clicks and makes weird noises to a Solid State hard drive and want to image the drive, is this possible? I then want to replace the DVD with a secondary large drive for storage.
So I am looking for any "gotchas" that I may be unaware of.
Thanks!Put the Old drive in an external notebook drive enclosure. Install the SSD in your computer. Boot from your Old drive's Recovery HD:
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears.
