Calculated column issue

Would like to know how to create a calculated column whose value is equal to other column's value. ie, i am having a column called BU in Content TYPE HUB and its propagated in my subscriber site collection say
http://srvr1/sites/demo. i would like to create a new site column in Demo, say, BU_Calc that must be equal to the value of BU.i would like to use the BU_Calc for further processing.
help is appreciated!

I don' t think this can be done at Content Type level. You can do this:
1) create the two columns in Site collection
2) subscribe the source column and calculated column in a list.
3) set the default value of the calculated column like this:

Grouping By a Calculated Column Issue

Hi,
I have 2 issues when I try to group by a view using a calculated column:
It will show the number of items under each group but you expand is not showing any items at all
It will show the item reproduced 333 times.
The first one it happens to all the lists and libraries on SharePoint 2013. However the second issue happened only in a document library that holds the employee Documents. The view is grouped by Document type column and the Employee column ( which is the
calculated column). It shows multiple versions of the same document as stated above.
Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
According to your description, there is an issue when grouping by Calculated column.
It was a known issue in the early build version of SharePoint 2013, it is already fixed in the August 2013 CU:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/steve_chen/archive/2013/03/26/3561010.aspx
I suggest you install August 2013 CU or the later versions and then create new list for a test.

Group By on Calculated Columns Issue

Dear All,
I have some lists and libraries which has some calculated columns for calculating year and month based on created date and we have custom views which has group by on those calculated columns. The problem is group by is not working as expected. Attached are
the screens for reference. We have also applied the June CU still no luck.
Please help us on the resolution to the same.

Hi Rajani,
can you please paste your calculated formula here? Try this formula =TEXT(Created,"yyyy")&TEXT(Created,"mm") to check it is working correctly with numeric month or not?
Thanks.

Make sure you dont have space in the data by any chance. You can try recreating the view again.

Calendar All Day Events, Calculated Columns, Timezone and DayLight Savings - Issues

Hi
I have a calendar where I am trying to display in one column using a calculated field (TitleWithTimes):
Start time (only display time) - End Time (only display time) : Title i.e. 00:00 - 23:59 : Test Event
So I add an all day event to the calendar for this month (February), it appears correctly:
i.e. 00:00 - 23:59 : Test Event 1
I am based in the UK so my time zone is currently GMT/UTC.
However if I add any all day events to the calendar in April when the time zone switches to GMT+1, the start and end times appear incorrect.
i.e 01:00 - 00:59 : Test Event 2
Field: TitleWithTimes
=TEXT([Start Time],"hh:mm")&" - "&TEXT([End Time],"hh:mm")&" : "&Title
This issue only occurs with ALL Day Events when the events are scheduled for a in the period of the year where the Time Zone becomes GMT + 1. My regional settings everywhere in SharePoint are correct as are all the SharePoint servers.
I have done lots of searching and troubleshooting to try and resolve this issue but it appears nobody has found a reliable fix for this issue with calculated fields, all day events and time zones? Does anyone have any ideas of workarounds?
Thanks

Hi,
I understand that you had issues about the calculated field in calendar.
This is a reproducible issue, when creating an all day event, the calculate column based on the Start Time/End Time is different from the original column value. The date is stored in SQL in GMT time and is displayed in SP in the correct time in lists. So
returning the start time in a calculated column for an all day event returns the start time in GMT time, which is not the current time most likely.
As a workaround, you can regenerate the calculate column to add one day/minus one day based on whether the event is an all day event, or create a workflow to copy the start time column to your created date/time column.
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

Issue with non calculated column in a fact table

Hi All,
With 3 facts(Fact1,Fact2,Fact3) and 2 Confirmed Dimensions my joins work fine in Criteria when I include All calculated columns from facts. If I try to include a non calculated column from Fact1(Which is a number Data type) Columns from Fact2 and Fact3 show Null values. I know it is not recommended to include dimension columns in fact , does OBIEE not support Number type non calculated columns as well? Is there any work around that I can bring in my non calculated column from Fact and still get results for other fact columns.Iam at 11.1.1.7 of OBIEE
Let me know if Iam not clear.
Your help is much Appreciated.
Thanks,
Vineela.

i would like to add 2 fields into my fact tables - LOAD ID (populated by a sequence during each load) and LOAD DATE.
as these fields are not related to any reporting dimensions, it is still possible to add them in OWB ? the fact wizard always ask for a foreign key to a dimension ...
Duncan,
If you want to add non dimensional attributes to a fact by using OWB, you can create additional measures to it and use them as attributes.

Error about using a concatenated calculated column in a SSAS Tabular model

Hi,
in a my tabular model I've added in a dimension table a calculated column concatenating a code and a description. The code is used to create a relation between a fact table and this dimension table.
When I try to use the tabular model inside Excel and select the concatenated column as a filter I've this error message:
I've tried to recalculate some times the tabular database after the deployment of the model changes and I've tried to run a full process of the entire database but any results.
Any suggests to me in order to solve this issue, please?
Thanks

Hi, I've solved. The concatenate formula was with "+" operator and not "&".
But during the column creation I've any errors also if the model in SSDT was empty.
Bye

SharePoint Designer 2010 Error occurs when accessing Edit Form: "The server returned a non-specific error when trying to get data from the data source ..." This occurs when using "" in a calculated column in a SharePoint List

I created a calculated column "Expiration Date" in SharePoint 2010 with formula, =IF([Contingent Hire]=TRUE,(Created+90),(IF([Contingent Hire]=FALSE," ")))
This works in the SharePoint list but when I go to edit the Edit Form in Designer. I get the error specified in the title of this post. I'm trying to make it so the Expiration Date is blank when another column, "Contingent Hire" (a YES/No
column) is FALSE.
The Edit Form is essentially a DataViewWebpart. If I remove the " ", like so, "(IF([Contingent Hire]=FALSE,))" from the calc column, the error goes away; however, the Expiration Date field does not
remain blank like I want it to.
Does anyone have any suggestions? (Below is the error generated when I open Designer and then try to open the Edit form for the corresponding list containing the calc column)
JackSki123

Hi Jack,
Could you provide a screenshot about this issue?
As Dimitri suggested, you can install the update for your SharePoint Designer and check again.
And you can also check if you can display "NA" instead of " " in your calculated column per the following post.

Ouput a string in a calculated column(Sqlscript)

Hi there.
I am having issues with something that appears to be really simple.
I just want to add a calculated column in a projection and print a string in this row.
Like the example below:
                  var_sales = CE_PROJECTION(:var_in,
                                       "COMPANY",
                                       CE_CALC('SOME TEXT', varchar(100)) AS "TYPE"
The odd thing is that if I put a INTEGER on 'SOME TEXT' it will work, but I need a string to be output.
In the graphical mode is really simple to do it, I just need to print the string in single quotes. But I have to do it in sqlscript because I am calling a procedure before it.

Quotes in SQLScript get tricky. The ' denotes the expression so you need to add another '' (triple quotes) to specify a string inside the expression. The following will compile.
var_sales = CE_PROJECTION(:var_in,
                                       "COMPANY",
                                       CE_CALC('''SOME TEXT''', varchar(100)) AS "TYPE"

How to improve slow PowerPivot performance when adding/modifying measures, calculated columns or Relationships?

I have been using PowerPivot for a couple of months now and whilst it is extremely quick when pulling in data to populate Pivot Tables, it is extremely slow to make the following kind of changes to the Data Model:
- Add a Measure / Calculated Field
- Add a Calculated Column
- Rename a Calculated Field
- Re-name a Calculated Column
- Modify a relationship
- Change a tables properties
- Update a table
In the status bar of excel I get a very quick 'calculating', then it spends a lot of time 'reading data',
then it 'finalises' after which nothing is in the status bar but it still takes approx. 45 seconds before the program becomes responsive again. This waiting time does not change depending on the action, it is the same if I rename a
column as it is if I add a new measure.
My question is what affects performance of these actions and how do I improve it?
To give you an idea of where my data comes from, I have:
- 7 tables that feed into the Data Model directly from within the workbook which contains the data model itself. These are a combination of static tables and tables that connect to a MySQL database.
- 6 separate workbooks which contain static data that is updated manually periodically (copied and pasted from another source)
- 5 separate workbooks which contain dynamic tables that are linked to our MySQL database and update when opened.
Now I realise that this is probably where my issue is, however I have no idea how to fix it. You do not seem to be able to connect to a MySQL database directly within the PowerPivot window itself so there is no way to generate and update tables without
first creating them either in a worksheet or separate workbook (as far as I know). If I try to create all of the tables directly within the single workbook containing the Data Model I get performance and crashing issues hence why I separate tables into
individual workbooks.
Any advice on how to improve performance would be tremendously appreciated. I'm new and keen to learn, I'm aware this set-up is far from best practice.
Hardware wise I am using:
- Windows 8 64-bit
- Excel 2013 64-bit
- Intel Core i7 processor
- 6 GB Ram
Thanks,
James

Darren,
I think the point I was making is its in memory, geez... BTW what do all applications do when they run out of paged memory, if PowerPivot is using all available memory then wouldn't this force the other applications to use Virtual or essentially write
back and forth to the disks? I think Virtual memory white to disk ??, lol Also, there are parts if the architecture of Excel 2013 that when importing data into PowerPivot require memory and when working in SharePoint the PowerPivot data is cached to disk
unless recently refreshed... But this conversation isn't help the James who asked the question and as much as I would love to continue its become a little boring..
Hi James,
If you download one the ODBC MySQL Connectors
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/odbc/ and I believe yours is the first one for x64 systems and connect directly to the data you should be able to reduce the number of workbooks your opening and if you notice in the following graphic these
connection are automatically refreshed by default, the parts in red are the differences between PowerPivot 2010 and 2013
You should notice a lot of improvement especially when refreshing data please let us know how it goes...
After registering the ODBC Driver
Click Add. on the User-DSN sheet, choose the “MySQL ODBC 5.x driver”, fill in the credentials, choose a database (from the select menu) and a data source name and you’re done.
Back in Excel you go on the PowerPivot section of the ribbon and open the PowerPivot window (the green icon on the left side). In the ‘Home’ section of that window you will see a small gray cylindrical symbol (the international
symbol for “database”) which will suggest to you different data sources to choose from. Take the one where it says “ODBC”.
In the next dialog you click on create, choose the adapter, and then Ok. Back in the assistant you can check the connection and proceed.
Now you have the choice between importing the data from tables using the import assistant or Query depends on your skillset..
Cheers,
Ivan

Calculated column shows all zeros in cross tab discoverer report

Hi
I have a calculated column in a cross tab report which shows all zeros, but when i duplicate the report as 'table' the calculated colun is getting populated.
i did not understand why it is doing like that, are there any special privileges or any special settings required for creating a cross tab report.

Hi,
No there is no special privs for cross tab but there is an aggregation issue.
There are some methods of aggregations used in the discoverer.
First thing you can so is to make sure that in the cross tab sheet you use the detailed data points and that you are not combining different levels of aggregations (for example one amount in details and another one summed).
Second thing you can try is to change the aggregation for this worksheet, you can do that by going to the worksheet properties to the aggregation tab and try to change the settings.
Third thing is to check the pref.txt file in the application server and set "AllowAggregationOverRepeatedValues" to 1
BTW also search your data and find whether you got NULL values in the aggregated items, if so then wrap the data points with NVL function.

Trouble changing column name used in calculated column

I have a calculated column in my list. The calculation is based on a column "Status". It worked fine. But I recently had to do some work on the Status column and changed it to Status_OLD and replaced it with a new Status column.
The above mentioned calculated field is now using Status_OLD and thus not working because Status_OLD is no longer in use. I went in the to calculation formula and tried to change it to Status, but Status does not appear in the Insert Column list, nor
does it allow me to just type in Status into the formula without throwing an error. Short of deleting the column and re-creating it, is there something I'm doing wrong or overlooking?
There are no mistakes; every result tells you something of value about what you are trying to accomplish.

Finally getting back to this issue. I have two columns in my list "Status" and "Status_OLD". "status" is a replacement for the previous one. I have three calculated fields that use that field. I need to change
their calculation to now use "Status" instead of "Status_OLD". When I go to the settings for that column, "status" is not listed in the choice of columns that can be inserted. Just typing it in won't work either.
When I try to make a new cal as a test, "Status" isn't available there either.
I really need to get this fixed as soon as possible now because some of these dates need to be acted upon.
There are no mistakes; every result tells you something of value about what you are trying to accomplish.
