Can BEX boolean formula give text value?

The logic is:
If quantity > 4, then "Successful", otherwise "failed".
In BEX formula boolean:
(quantity > 4) * "Successful" + (quantity < 4) * "failed".
But somehow we can't find a way of adding the text wording "Successful" or "failed" into the BEX formula window. Any workaround?
Thanks and we will give you reward points!

Hi Kevin,
Instead of displaying text in the report column you can populate 1 or 0 using a formula or formula variable. Again if you are displaying the report on web you can use the concept of table interface which can replace 1 or 0 with the required text (n BW3.5).

How can I lookup text values in a column and display a list of corresponding names from another column, sorted by values?

My spreadsheet looks like this:
          Monday     Tuesday     Wednesday
Name 1     OFF          4:30 PM     4:30 PM
Name 2     5 PM     OFF          4:30 PM
Name 3     4:30 PM     5 PM     OFF
Name 4     4 PM     OFF          OFF
I would like to create a spreadsheet for each day that will display the values sorted by time, as follows (e.g. Monday):
Name     In Time
Name 4     4 PM
Name 3     4:30 PM
Name 2     5 PM
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Here's an example, using the provided data:
I've set the alignment on Main to Automatic (except for row 1) to distinguish between numeric and quasi numeric values (aligned right) and text (aligned left). This is a visual aid to developing the table, and would likely be changed for appearance in the end version.
Columns E, F and G of Main are index columns listing the RANK of numeric/date and time values in columns A, B and C respectively. Text values cause RANK to throw an error, which is caught by IFERROR, which returns a value of 999, chosen to be well above any of the RANK values returned. A small amount ( ROW()/100000 ) is added to each result to prevent duplicate results is cases like column D, where duplicate times appear.
Formula: Main::E2: =IFERROR(RANK(B2,B,1),999)+ROW()/100000
Fill down the column, and right to column G.
These columns may be hidden.
The three daily columns use a single formula each, revised to match the index columns from which they determine the row containing each piece of data to be copied, and to match the columns from which they retrieve that data. The formulas from row 2 of these tables are listed here in the order (left to right) that they are used in the second row of tables above. Parts that are edited from one formula to another are shown in bold.
=IF(SMALL(Main :: $E,ROW()-1)>999,"",OFFSET(Main :: $A$1,MATCH(SMALL(Main::$E,ROW()-1),Main :: $E,0)-1,0))
=IF(SMALL(Main :: $E,ROW()-1)>999,"",OFFSET(Main :: $A$1,MATCH(SMALL(Main::$E,ROW()-1),Main :: $E,0)-1,1))
=IF(SMALL(Main :: $F,ROW()-1)>999,"",OFFSET(Main :: $A$1,MATCH(SMALL(Main::$F,ROW()-1),Main :: $F,0)-1,0))
=IF(SMALL(Main :: $F,ROW()-1)>999,"",OFFSET(Main :: $A$1,MATCH(SMALL(Main::$F,ROW()-1),Main :: $F,0)-1,2))
=IF(SMALL(Main :: $G,ROW()-1)>999,"",OFFSET(Main :: $A$1,MATCH(SMALL(Main::$G,ROW()-1),Main :: $G,0)-1,0))
=IF(SMALL(Main :: $G,ROW()-1)>999,"",OFFSET(Main :: $A$1,MATCH(SMALL(Main::$G,ROW()-1),Main :: $G,0)-1,3))
Each of the formulas is filled down its column.
Each of the functions used is described in the iWork Formulas and Functions User Guide, a useful resource to have on hand when you are writing (or attempting to 'decode') Numbers formulas, The guide (and the Numbers '09 User Guide) may be downloaded from the Help menu in Numbers '09.

How can I get the text value of an XML element in MXML ?

Hi,
I have the following XML loaded into a variable of type XML :
<properties>
     <comment>RIMpro Data Collector Configuration</comment>
     <entry key="server.pear.username"/>
     <entry key="server.apple.retry.times">5</entry>
     <entry key="rdc.proxy.host">http://192.168.1.2:8080</entry>
/properties>
I can easily get the key attribute displayed in a DataGridColumn by setting the dataProvider to my variable and the dataField to "@key". But I do not know how to get the text value in a second column... Is there a way or do I need to change my XML to something like this :
<properties>
     <comment>RIMpro Data Collector Configuration</comment>
     <entry key="server.pear.username"/>
     <entry key="server.apple.retry.times" value="5"></entry>
     <entry key="rdc.proxy.host" value="http://192.168.1.2:8080"></entry>
/properties>
Many thanks in advance.
Marc

yes, you'd better modify your XML structure to fit the DataGrid internals.
Since dataField pattern require each grid row item to have a named property to be displayed, otherwise you'll be forced to overcome this pattern using custom labelFunction for the particular column which will implement your custom actions on how to extract appropriate data for that column out of grid row item. It will be much more complicated than just rearranging your xml structure.

Can I convert Facebook time Text to Project Siena's Date value ?

Can I convert Facebook time Text to Project Siena's Date value ?
I want to show create_time on screen by my Localtime formatted text.
Facebook time Text = 2014-07-14T11:22+0000
I want to show = 2014/07/14 18:22
My Time Zone is +09:00, Osaka/Japan.
Currently I try it by Text/Replace/Replace/Replace/Left/DateValue/+ , etc.
And I ask more simple way.

Thank you Andy , and Robin, I can.
Text(TimeValue(Substitute(ThisItem!created_time,"+0000",".000Z")),"yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm")
At Facebook Albums's Gallary, I can convert from Facebook created_time to Localtime Text DateTime.
and I hope more easy way like Excel Power Query's one.

Can I convert Twitter time Text to Project Siena's Date Value ?

Siena uses JavaScript to parse date/times, via the TimeValue function. A good specification regarding what is acceptable can be found here:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/parse
The example above is truly bizarre: I thought I had seen it all. You will need to turn that form into one of those listed on the above site, using string functions to chop it up and reassemble it into a saner form.

Iam using a table in numbers to plot daily graph lines. If I fill a cell with a text box at say zero it plots the graph. I can't actually set the cell value until the actual day but the graph plots it at zero when I don't want it to plot anything. Is tho

I am using a table in Numbers to plot daily graph lines. Mood swings of how I am on the day, i"m a depressive.
If I fill a cell with a step box at say zero it plots the graph. I can't actually set the cell value until the actual day but the graph plots it at zero when I don't want it to plot anything. Is there a work around. so thatbgraph only plots on the day?

The answer is (sort of) in your subject, but edited out of the problem statement in the body of your message.
When you use a stepper or a slider, the value in the cell is always numeric, and is always placed on the chart if that cell is included in the range graphed by the chart.
But if you use a pop-up menu cell, you can specify numeric or text values in the list of choices for in the menu. Numeric values will be shown on the chart. Text values will not.
For the example, the values list for the pop-up menu was:
5
3
1
Choose
-1
-3
-5
The first pop-up was set to display Choose, then the cell was filled down the rest of the column. Any text value (including a single space, if you want the cell to appear blank) may be used instead of Choose.
For charts with negative Y values, the X axis will not automatically appear at Y=0. If your value set will include negative values, I would suggest setting the Y axis maximum and minimum to the maximum and minimum values on your menu list, rather than letting Numbers decide what range to include on the chart. Place a line shape across the chart at the zero level, and choose to NOT show the X axis.

How can i do to see the master and text values of the Key figure 0UNIT

Hi gurus,
How can i do to see the master and text values of the Key figure 0UNIT, please step by step, i m in the key figure 0UNIT but i want to see if the UNIT for example BX = BOX, something like this is that i want to check, thanks!

If you look at the unit tables, you will see the values and texts. It's in SPRO, not in RSA1. My access is limited on my system here, but the documentation says to go to t-code CUNI. I believe in that tcode you can look at all of the unit equivalencies and what each unit's text is ..... like an ea means each; KG = Kilogram; etc...
I am on an 3.x system, so in SPRO I go to BW CIG=>General Settings=>Check units of measurement.

Urgent!!! How to give a value to a BEx variable in the planning fuction?

Hi all,
does anybody know how can set variable's value in the palnning fuction (type exit) in IP?
The two function modules in BPS which make this job don't work in the IP.
thanks very much for any proposal.
hongwei

Hi,
Reg the first part of the question, can you please explain how do you want to capture the variable for the custom planning function? Because, when I look at standard functions delivered by SAP, in the FROM CHANGE and TO CHANGE(for example copy function), we can select the BI variables or create new variables also.
To pass the values to this variable from BEx Analyzer, we need to use the command range in BEx Analyzer and capture the values.
I have used this approach to capture the BEx variable values into a FOX function using VARV function, but Im not pretty sure how to pass it to a custom planning function.
Regarding the second part of the question can you pls look at FM : RSPLSSE_PLSEQ_EXECUTE. I think you need to embedd your planning function into a sequence and call it with the above FM.
You can also have a look at the ABAP program that is used to trigger a planning sequence by placing a breakpoint in any of the planning functions : "RSPLS_PLSEQ_EXECUTE" wherein you can pass the sequence name in the variant.

Can we give where condition while db polling, if yes how to give the value

Hi,
We are polling a db table, can we give where condition in polling query. If we can give this then where to pass the value for the condition.
eg:
select * from xxtable wherexxname=#xxname;
If above is the db polling query then how to pass #xxname value to db adapter.
After polling we are deleting the row in the table.
Thanks,
Ra

You can add where condition , but the value should be passed while configuring DB Adapter itself. You can't pass dynamic values to it as it is polling and gets activated once the process is deployed.
Thanks,

Is variable offsets can be used for characteristics, text and formulas?

hi all,
can anyone let me know whether variable offsets can be used for characteristics, text and formulas.
if so cany one send me examples of using offsets to my email id [email protected]
regds
hari

You use offsets on dates (0CALMONTH, 0FISCYEAR, 0DAT and so on) and of course the corresponding texts.
If you have 0CALMONTH in your query and you want to do the same thing not only for the current month but for the past twelve months, they you just minus 1, 2....11,12 for each selections, and at the same time you can create text variable for the description of each month.
thanks.

How can i pass second text value to the procedure.

Hi ,
I have used APEX_ITEM.TEXT(1,null) Item_name,APEX_ITEM.TEXT(2,null) file_name in a sql query and i should pass these two text value as a input parameter to the Procedure.
So in Process i have written code like
FOR i IN 1 .. APEX_Application.g_f01.COUNT
LOOP
generate_report_data(APEX_Application.g_f01(i)
,APEX_Application.g_f02(i)
END LOOP;
COMMIT;
if i enter values in two text columns then two values are passing to a procedure it's fine.
Here the issue is if i leave the first value as balnk and enter the 2 nd value like Xyz then click on a submit button
so 2 nd value also passing null to the procedure..
please anybody guide on this issue..
Thanks in advance..
Regards
Narender B

Hello Narender,
>
Here the issue is if i leave the first value as balnk and enter the 2 nd value like Xyz then click on a submit button
so 2 nd value also passing null to the procedure..
>
This is happening because of FOR i IN 1 .. APEX_Application.g_f01.COUNT in your procedure:
>
FOR i IN 1 .. APEX_Application.g_f01.COUNT
LOOP
generate_report_data(APEX_Application.g_f01(i)
,APEX_Application.g_f02(i)
END LOOP;
COMMIT;
>
FOR i IN 1 .. APEX_Application.g_f01.COUNT this loop will take only those values of apex_application.g_f01 into consideration whose value is not null.
Hope it helps!

Output a text value from formula in query designer

I need to display different text values in a query. For example, if actual delivery date falls within 5 days of planned delivery date, display 'ON-TIME'; if earlier than 5 days display 'EARLY', if later than 5 days display 'LATE', etc. I've been researching this to death. Does it have to be a customer exit variable or is there a better way to do this?
thanks!

Hello Jill,
Yes creating three CKF's was correct and those will output a 1 if your condition satisfies else a zero. Create a new formulae and use a the CKF's that you created and multiply with 2,3,4.
Example : Formulae Description "Early=2" ,"Late =3","Ontime=4"
Then your logic is "ckf12 + ckf23 + ckf3*4" which means only one will be true per line so it will result in either 2 or 3 or 4.You will see
Delivery Date       Scheduled Date   "Early=2" ,"Late =3","Ontime=4"
12/20/2007            12/24/2007                          2
12/22/2007            12/21/2007                          3
You will have to create a Text Variable with Customer Exit option which will say if output of example Tech name of "Early=2" ,"Late =3","Ontime=4" is "ZEar_Lat_Otime"
When "ZEar_Lat_Otime"
   if     Result= 2 then "Early",
   if     Result =3 then "Late"
else Result =4 then "Ontime"
into   "Text_Variable"
code to be some thing like that.
Result Display:
Delivery Date       Scheduled Date   "Early=2" ,"Late =3","Ontime=4"
12/20/2007            12/24/2007                          Early
12/22/2007            12/21/2007                        Late
Show your client the below result and see if he is OK with the result then you dont have to use Customer Exit.
Delivery Date       Scheduled Date   "Early=2" ,"Late =3","Ontime=4"
12/20/2007            12/24/2007                          2
12/22/2007            12/21/2007                          3

I see people from different ages at my work and every month I need to count how many people from each age I've seen that month. How can I do to give the entries to numbers in a single cell and make numbers count them for me?

I see people from different ages at my work and every month I need to count how many people from each age I've seen that month. How can I do to give the entries to numbers in a single cell and make numbers count them for me? The final result would be a spreadsheet telling there were 8 people from 20 to 39 years old, 14 peolple from 40 to 59 and so on...

This appears to be an 'input form' using 'Radio Buttons' to select the category. Neither of these features are supported in Numbers '09.
You can input the data on one table and summarize it on a second table, but the input table will continue to hold data for each event.
And by using the Reorganize button, you can hide all but two rows of that table to approximate the appearance and performance of an input form.
Here are the two tables, Data on the left and Summary on the right. Notes below.
The grey-filled columns in both tables are 'working' columns, and may be hidden (as shown in the image below).
Data table:
D1 contains the word "TRUE" (in capital letters). (This row is always shown.)
D2 is empty, or may contain any value except "TRUE" (This row is always hidden under the Reorganize rule.)The rest of Row 2 of this table requires the data shown: a number outside the range to be counted (999), and two checkboxes, both checked.
D3 (and filled down the rest of column D): =AND(OR(B2,C2),NOT(OR(B3,C3)))
The formula returns TRUE only for the first unused row in the table (ie. the first row for which neither checkbox has been checked)
Summary table:
Column A contains labels for the age ranges to be counted.
Column B contains the same information in the form necessary for the formulas in columns C and D. They need a numeric value, and that value must be the largest acceptable value in the range to be counted.
C2 (and filled right to column D, then both filled down to row 5):
=COUNTIFS(Data :: $A,"<="&$B,Data :: B,TRUE)-SUM(C$1:C1)
Two changes from the previous example:
COUNTIFS is used to separate the Native and Foreign counts as well as the age range to be counted.
The amount subtracted from each result is the SUM of the earlier results, and includes the text value in the first cell of the column (which is interpreted by SUM as a zero).
See note below regarding my earlier formula.
When the greyed columns are hidden and the checkbox in the Reorganize pane is checked, the two tables will appear as shown below:
Close the reorganize pane, and the 'data entry form' is ready to use.
To use, enter the age first, then check one of the boxes.
As soon as one box is checked, the row will be hidden, and the next (unused) row will be shown.
Regards,
Barry
Note regarding formula in my earlier post:
The earlier formula will give erroneous results as it subtracts only the count directly above it from its count of persons in the age range 0-n.
In E2 of that table, replace "-E1" with "-SUM(E1:E$1)
Fill down to E8.
Ignore the instructions (in that post) following "Fill down to E8."
