BSO to ASO Formula Conversion - Help Needed

ASO is not my forte...I am trying to get a simple formula to work in ASO cube as part of BSO->ASO conversion.
If it is level 0 entity, the formula is (Last Shipped (PU) * Part Volume)...works fine.
If its upper level, it should just sum the values of its children. The BSO equivalent that we typically use is @SUM(@CHILDREN(@CURRMBR("Entity"))).
I attempted the same in the ASO MDX script as shown below, it is not yielding me the correct result....any thoughts why this is not working?
Thanks in advance.

SUM(Children(Entity.CurrentMember))+
END+
Edited by: Nima.V on Nov 12, 2008 7:12 PM

Have you tried specifying which measure you want it to sum?
e.g.
CASE WHEN ISLEVEL(Entity.CurrentMember, 0) THEN
Last Shipped (PU) x Part Volume
ELSE
SUM(Children(Entity.CurrentMember), [Measure].[Part Volume])
END
also I'm not sure whether the SUM is correct. This might work as it definately specifies the tuples:
SUM({Products.CurrentMember.children},[Measures].[Part Volume])
hope it helps,

11i to r12 Conversion - help needed

Hi
My client is doing re-implementation of r12 and migrating from 11i to r12. I need help particularly on conversions side. The client is a SaaS company. they are considering to bring open and history transactions and applied/unapplied receipts to r12 AR.
- how to migrate revenue scheduled open/closed invoices from 11i to r12 since rev schedules for a SaaS company is expected to be long terms. and how to make sure that rev schedules are correct upon migration to r12??
- for partially paid invoices how to make sure that the same partially paid amount reflects in r12 upon conversion? can a negative line amount equalling to paid amount be a possible solution??
- upon migration do the closed invoices have to be converted as open and receipts re-applied after migration in r12 or they can be brought in as-is with status closed?
- if customer paid for an invoice using a credit card in 11i and upon migration it came to notice that the credit card is no longer used by the customer so how to re-apply the same receipt in r12 which was applied in 11i using that credit card. do we have to enable it in r12 just for closing the invoice? what could be possibilities?
please anyone if can answer would be very helpful
Thanks

It depends on the dpi. Usually 72dpi = 72 pixels per inch.
1000/72 = 13,88888 inch
1 inch = 25,4 mm
13,88888 * 25,4 = 352,7777 mm

as you can see 8 fields, separated with whitespaces
and i want and xml file which looks like this:

Would you please let me know how the datatype has to look like?
And especially how the FCC has to be configured for this scenario?

Well Christian,
There is one thing, eithere you can use fieldSeparator or fieldFixedLengths you can not use both together. So in your case do not use fieldSeparator.
The complete FCC is almost same as given in the blog in my previous reply. See the final output in that blog and create your data type accordingly. e.g.
Recordset
------Item 0...unbound
--------Field1 0..1
--------Field2 0..1
--------Field3 0..1
--------Field8 0..1

Conversion help needed.

Hi everybody. I'm new to the forum, and need your assistance.
I've recently purchased a Sony 30GB hardrive camcorder and I'm having
problems editing the movies in iMovie HD. The problem is that the camera
records movies in MPEG2 format, and in order for me to edit anything, I
need to convert the movie into MPEG4 format. I was wondering if anybody
could recomend a third party conversion software 'cause Apple doesn't
have anything like that? (so I've been told). Any help would be much
appreciated.
Thank you very much. Derek
G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Hi kwak,
welcome to the  board
in order … to edit anything, I need to convert the movie into MPEG4 format.
no, you need to convert to "dv", only format storing every frame without (almost) any loss of pic information.. (mpegs are lossy, a delivery format)
choose, in recommended order:
* DVDxDV (free trial, 25$)
* Apple mpeg2 plugin (20$) + Streamclip (free)
* Cinematize >60$
* Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
* Toast6/7 allows converting to dv/import file, hit apple-k

Pixels to mm conversion help needed!

Hi.. it's a long shot, but I am constructing a dummy web page... and need to figure out how to take 1000 pixels and convert to a mm or cm box to do a design in.
Does anyone know how to do that... as web designers say they need a 1000 pixel wide page!
I cant seem to find a conversion tool that gives just measurements...
any help appreciated....
as in iweb i just set it but cant find it in cm either!

It depends on the dpi. Usually 72dpi = 72 pixels per inch.
1000/72 = 13,88888 inch

Hi all.
I am basically an ABAP developer. My recent assignment needs some java coding.
It will be very helpful if we anybody helps me in finding the corresponding pricing fields in java.
The abap code is as follows

check: xkomv - xkbetr ne 0.
check : komp - kpein ne 0.
if komp - netwr < 0.
komp - netpr = 0 - komp - netpr.
endif.
xkwert = (        ( ( komp - netpr * ( 100000 + xkomv - xkbetr))     / 100000)

RecordSet to Cusror Conversion Help Needed

Hi,
I have a Perl Code which calls a Stored Procedure in Oracle 8i Database. As you know that you can return Cursors
and other data types back to Perl and not RecordSets. So I am trying to convert a RecordSet to a Cursor. The Stored
Procedure Does some complex computations and then stores the results in a record Set. I need to tansfer the data
from the Record Set back to the Perl Code via a REF Cusror. The only solution that I can think of is Creating a Temp
Table to store the results and then point a Cursor to that and return that Cusror to the Perl Code. Is there any other
way of doing this???. I searched lot of sites/forums, But couldnt find any solution.
You Help will be greatly appreciated :).
Thanks
Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,
i too had the same requirement but using Java Code.
One way to return a Cursor to the code is using a package.
the query which returns the recordset is to be assigned to a ref cursor. For eg.
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE PKG_PLAN AS
TYPE RESULT IS REF CURSOR;
PROCEDURE USERDETAILS2 (
O_RESULT OUT RESULT
END PKG_PLAN;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY PKG_PLAN AS
PROCEDURE USERDETAILS2(
O_RESULT OUT RESULT
AS
BEGIN
OPEN O_RESULT FOR SELECT DISTINCT US_FIRSTNAME AS UserName,
US_COMPANYNAME AS Company, TBLUSER.US_PRIMARYEMAIL AS EmailId ,
FROM
TBLUSER where
TBLUSER.US_STATUS = 'A' ORDER BY UserName;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('INSIDE EXCEPTION');
END USERDETAILS2;
END PKG_PLAN;
and in the perl code u will invoke the procedure as
CALL PKG_PLAN.USERDETAILS2(?)
where ? is the out parameter -of type cursor which is to be
registered via perl code.(not sure how it is done in perl)
and after issuing execute command via perl code
get the resultset.
hope u understood it and the above was of help.
Good luck
Rani

Mapping conversion help needed for date

Hi Experts,
I need help in message mapping convesion for date field
The source date field can have value '2010-06-04T02:09:59.610-07:00' or 2010-06-04T02:09:60.610-07:00
I have to change it to '2010-06-04T02:09:59.000-07:00'. ie, if the seconds are 59.XXX, or 60.XXX, then change to 59.000.
Please let me know the best way to do this
Thanks
Mike

Again, to make it more clear
The source date field can have any date value such as
2010-06-04T02:09:59.610-07:00 -
This needs to be changed to 2010-06-04T02:09:59.000-07:00
2010-06-04T02:09:60.610-07:00 -- This needs to be changed to 2010-06-04T02:09:59.000-07:00
2010-06-04T02:09:60.000-07:00 -- This needs to be changed to 2010-06-04T02:09:59.000-07:00
2010-06-04T02:09:59.000-07:00 - This need not be changed
2010-06-04T02:09:58.610-07:00 -- This need not be changed
2010-06-04T02:09:57.610-07:00 etc etc - These need not be changed.
The only change using date function is for the first two dates, in which 59.XXX and 60.XXX need to be replaced with 59.000
Using the above date function, all the seconds 59.XXX, 58.XXX, 60.XXX, etc etc,,, are converted to 59.000, 58.000 and 60.000
I dont need this as per the requirement. So looks like the UDF needs to be altered a little to accomodate my requirement.
Please help me.
Thanks

Quicktime conversion help needed greatly!!!

I need to convert my project in Final Cut Express to a quicktime movie, the only problem is I don't know the right settings to make the movie of high quality. Its a film im sending into a film festival and the post mark date is tomarrow! Does anyone know what are the right settings for a film? Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thankyou.

Quicktime as you probably know will export to a variety of different formats.
1. If it is something that they wish to view on a computer, you can export from Final Cut as a Quicktime movie making sure that it is using current settings and that it is self contained. This can then be simply saved to a disc.
2. If the file is to large, open it in Quicktime and export as a Quickime movie.
In the options box under "settings" it should default to H.264 with options on the quality. ( "medium" is normally fine ). Save to a disc.
3. To save to a DVD that will play in DVD player you will need something like Toast Titanium. Drop the QT movie into Toast under "video" and choose DVD Video. Click Burn.
Give me a shout if you get stuck.

Unicode and ascii conversion help needed

I am trying to read passwords from a foxpro .dbf. The encrpytion of the password is crude, it takes the ascii value of each char entered and adds an integer value to it, then stores the complete password to the table. So to decode, just subtract same integer value from each chars retieved from .dbf. pretty simple.
The problem is that java chars and strings are unicode, so when my java applet retrieves these ascii values from the .dbf they are treated as unicode chars, if the ascii value is over 127 I have problems.
The question. how can i retrieve these ascii values as ascii values in java?
Should I use an InputStream like:
InputStream is=rs.getAsciiStream("password");
Is there a way to convert from unicode to extended ascii?
Some examples would be helpful, Thanks in advance.

Conversion help needed ---Sony DCR-HC30

I feel like a total dummy here because I can't figure this out .......AND, I have done it before! Its been quite a while and the old brain isn't all it used to be, I guess.
I have a Sony DCR-HC30 camcorder. I imported a movie I took into iMovie. I edited it and played with it to my little heart's content. It is finished now and I want to run it back through my camcorder, into a VCR to copy it to a VHS tape. I know what you're thinking ......WHY? Answer .....as a gift for my mother-in-law who does not have a DVD. Later, I will record it using iDVD for myself to get the better quality I want.
So, please, can someone give me complete directions on how to do this????? I cannot find the info in my manual. I have the camcorder connected to my computer via firewire, and the camcorder is connected in the In jacks of my VCR. What am I missing? What mode does the camera need to be in?
Thanks to any kind soul who can put me out of my misery.
Kathy

Hi, Kathy!
I have the same camcorder and I love it! Just perfect for all this movie-making, and it is great in low light, and small enough to be easy to carry with me.
Now, there are 2 ways to capture your movie on VHS tape. One is the straight pass-through set up...that you describe. Just put the camcorder in VTR mode and don't put a tape in it. Push record on the VCR and play on the iMovie.
However, I recommend that you use the method that will take longer. You do it in 2 steps. First, 'share' your iMovie back to your camcorder onto a DV tape. Then, disconnect the camera from the computer and connect it to the VCR using the AV connector that came with the camera. Then record the movie to VHS.
The reason I recommend this double recording (once to DV tape and once to VHS) is that you will then have a digital copy of your iMovie that you can use again and again to import/edit/re-record/ burn to DVD. You don't have to leave your movie on your computer and risk that it might become corrupted/lost in a computer crash/etc. You will also have a permanent digital copy as a backup. I know, you have the original, but after spending time creating your edited movie, it is very nice to save it.
I have been copying my old family vhs tapes and photos into iMovie and making DVDs of each year's footage. Some years we were more into movies and photos, so some years take up 2 DVDs. I recorded almost all of the original VHS tapes onto DV tapes to import (yes, about 120 hours so far), and when finished with each imovie, I export the edited version..with titles, transitions, music...to another DV tape to preserve it in that form as well as the DVDs I have made. I guess I am afraid that some newer technology will make DVDs obsolete and I think maybe the DV tapes will last longer. I am working with some VHS tapes that are already 23 years old!
Anyway, that is my 2cents for you

Old Home Movies conversion help needed! Please!

I have about 18 hours of various movies that had been built in Pinnacle Studio (transitions etc.) on a PC Computer. There is no disc chaptering and this is a PC only program. I want to bring them over to iMovie or another program on my new iMac and have the end result to put them on USB. Pinnacle said that burning to DVD would be the only way to incorporate menus and chapters etc. Is there any way for iMovie to do this? or another program? We just want to be able to have them on USB to distribute to the family and have them put in their computer and be able to play back the various movies and have the option to fast forward or skip to a certain part in the movie with scene selection etc. I have several options to export the Pinnacle movies. Mpeg1, mpeg2 and a few others.
Any help or direction would be appreciated. We don't want to have to chop our videos to burn to a bunch of DVDS if possible.....

I can't answer your question completely but I will try and fill in a few blanks. Perhaps others will add more later.
I would try to make your final result a DVD. When you put video on a USB stick you have simply created another file that may, or may not work, in the future. You can certainly do that if you wish, but I would also make a DVD. The advantage of DVDs is that they are foolproof and universal, and most likely to be viewable for the next 30 years.
I had good success with iMovie HD 06. Readily available on Amazon as part of iLife 06. Most files can simply be dragged into iMovie HD 06 and it will automatically convert them. It may be possible to do this with newer versions of iMovie but I rarely use those. I prefer the higher quality of iMovie HD 06.
For DVD making use iDVD 09. I recommend the 09 version because it is the only version that includes all of the themes. Newer versions have had themes removed.
