BW -  Can Wild Carding be done  with Variables or what ?

Hello All,
Topic is "Can Wild Carding be done in BW" ?
Need direction and solutions to this question. My definition is the abiliy to select key data within a  characteristic to generate a report. The data can be any part of the characteristic. An example of this is 0Fund, 10 characters; the cleint wants\needs to pull 'xyzz' from the field.
IN the old system, the client would type in '*xyzz' to capture the requested data. Does BW possess this capability?
Thank you all in advance for your suggestions
Jim

Hi Jeff,
I tried your suggestion and got the same results, no data and there is data in the cube.
When the query was excuted, '*' was selected from the dropdown box, then the middle 4 digits of the fund was entry in the filter field. Have any idea's why it might not be working.
The variable was created with the wizard, with the following options; Processing By = User Enty/Default Value, Selection Option, Default = none.
Do see anything wrong?
Thanks In advance.......Jim

  • I need to understand better, what can be done with sync and what cannot

    i setup 2 windows boxes + 2 linux boxes to sync and got a mess in less than a day. apparently, i do not understand, what it does/should do, and what not.
    As one having done work in distributed environments, namely in database replication scenarios, i understand, there have to be limitations, especially, as all of my 4 boxes are running most of the time.
    next, i found, that copying profiles wouldnt have worked either, as the windows boxes (have to) use different add-ons/plugins compared to linux (like fireshot - to give a simple example - needed a replacement on linux). - So just moving profiles doesnt help. But the promise to catch open windows/tabs, history, and so forth doesnt seem to work either. Maybe TabMixPlus is killing the whole mechanism?
    I found very detailed documentation on where to click to get it all started, but nothing about the internals nor limitations, thus being very disappointed now to find sync actually NOT working at all.
    Furthermore, while setting up the whole thing, every machine had a "sync setting" as to how to use that one machine: initial distribution/sync/receiver only/and so forth. Does this only concern the initial setup? - I wasnt able to see this configuration option ever again to be able to change it after the initial setup had been done.
    So i obviously need to understand better... as to me it looks like some real messy replication scenario, with not all backends sharing the same tables. And apparently adding/removing add-ons needs to get replicated manually anyway.
    What time delay do i have to expect? When shall i use "Syncronize" manually? And so on...
    I mean: I trusted Mozilla solution more than any other one, but it doesnt seem to live up to my expectations.
    (sorry: i had to reenter the whole thing after my email address ran out)

    Ok then! Thanks for answering!  Can you still transfer music over? I can't even get that to work! I have set my nephews up with no problem..obviously not a sec generation... please help again!

    Please feel free to ask any further details required..

    You need to use UPSERT ALL rather than just UPSERT.
    The documentation [url http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e25554/sqlmodel.htm#i1011770]here explains that UPSERT can only insert with "positional reference" and not "symbolic reference", and ANY wildcard is always "symbolic reference". But UPSERT ALL allows model rules with existential predicates (comparisons, IN, ANY, and so on) in their left side to have UPSERT behavior.

  • Can URL redirects be configured with XE and what is the HTTP Server

    I would like to be able to URL redirects. I'm running XE with Application Express 2.1.0.00.39.
    I want to be able to have a URL like www.schoolwebsite.com and when the user hits it - have it redirect to the Apex page for the application. I was thinking that I needed to use a redirect in the HTTP config file, and that XE used Oracle_HTTP and I could configure in that manner.
    But, I can't find an Apache directory.
    1. What HTTP server is used with XE and Application Express 2.1.0.00.39?
    2. Can I configure for this type of redirect?
    3. Do I need to install an HTTP server to accomplish this?
    Thanks,
    Stephen

    Hi Steven,
    search for "proxy" in this forum.
    It explains how to configure a plain Apache http server as a proxy to XE. Then you can use the default mechanisms to rewrite an url.
    Here is an example (save the file as XE.conf and store it in the Apache conf directory (file httpd.conf is there).
    The following instructions are valid for Apache2.
    # Activate the following modules in httpd.conf:
    #LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
    #LoadModule proxy_connect_module modules/mod_proxy_connect.so
    #LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
    #LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
    #LoadModule headers_module modules/mod_headers.so
    # include the XE configuration (this file XE.conf) in httpd.conf:
    #include "conf/XE.conf"
    # XE listener is buggy, thus downgrade to http 1.0
    SetEnv force-proxy-request-1.0 1
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteLog "D:\Programme\Apache Group\Apache2\logs\rewrite.log"
    RewriteLogLevel 0
    ## Rewrite requests /apex, /i, /public, /sys to locally installed XE
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /(([^/]+)(/.*)*)$
    RewriteCond %2 =apex [OR]
    RewriteCond %2 =i [OR]
    RewriteCond %2 =public [OR]
    RewriteCond %2 =sys
    RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://%{SERVER_NAME}:8080/%1 [P]

    Can someone help me with this problem,
    Is it possible to use a pair of glasses cleaning rag?

    I use iKlear products to clean ALL of my Apple products - you can get the starter kit directly from iKlear - https://www.klearscreen.com/detail.aspx?ID=99 - or via Amazon. Terrific products - I've been using them for at least 12 years now. Can usually be found in Apple Stores, too.
    Just amazing how it can make that 27" display 'shine' again!

  • I can't access webinars, even with their software; what can I do?

    Could it be a problem with my Firewall or other Internet Security System? I have no idea how to resolve this.

    PowerPC was the processor type for Macs prior to 2006. It was coded in a way that is not compatible with the 2006 and later Intel-based Macs. To ease the transition, Apple included a way for the OS to "translate older programs coded for PwoerPC Macs so they would run on Intel Macs.
    This lasted about six years. PowerPC Support for pre-Intel Mac software, which through OS 10.6.8 was handled by Rosetta emulation, disappeared with OS 10.7 in 2011.
    You either need to upgrade Final Draft to a version that supports Macs with Intel Processors, or use your current software on an older Mac.

  • About what can be done with free tools today

    Hi,
    I'm quite new to MHP and JavaTV. I've seen many web pages that informed me about MHP (like Steve's one, thanks if you see this message), but I'm still a bit confused about what can and cannot be done with the free tools available today, eg XleTView, openMHP or others.
    I'd like to fetch a DVB stream (or an object carousel? I'm not sure about it) from a DVB-T card (which has BDA drivers) and access it with MHP (in order to find which services are available, etc...).
    Tell me if I'm wrong, I think XleTView or openMHP can't access my DVB-T card, it's just useful to test Xlets.
    Is there a way to have it access the DVB-T card, or even a stream or an object carousel that would be on my hard drive?
    Many thanks, and sorry for the silly questions.

    [oops]
    when I say "it's just useful to test Xlets", I don't want to say it does only minor things. I understand all the MHP stuff is complex to implement, so don't take it bad, I just expressed myself the wrong way :)
    I'm grateful to the programmers who help to do this. Thanks!
