Can I put formula in a query

I created an infoset (SQ02) and a query (SQ01). I want to have a new column that computes for the difference of the forecasted sales and actual sales. Can I do that in a query?

Hello John,
I'm sure it can be done. But you have to take the help of an Abaper to acheive that.
Go to Transaction code - SQ02 (Change mode of the query you have created). Then click on the Extras Tab and use the Code Tab to write the formula you require.

Can I put confitions in a query?!?

Hi there,
Can anybody tell me if there could have something like a conditional query?
Ok here is the deal.. I have couple of tables where i have the relations between objects, subobjects and sub-subobjects and the status of the sub-subobjects.
One object can have many subobjects with many sub-subobjects with different status
object
- subobject1
-sub-subobject1
-sub-subobject1
I m trying to build a tree which shows img for the status of the subobjects and sub-subobjects.
The idea is if any of the sub-subobject is "URGENT" the status for the Subobject to this subsubobject to be "URGENT" too.
How can I make my tree query work like this?
Any help will be highly appreciated!
Thanks in advance

Can we show comments in adhoc query?

Hello All,
       Can we put comments in Adhoc query?
       I have a comment icon in infotype 9903.
       I need to fetch that particular comments and show in a query output. It is not a field.
       Can we do this? If yes, then please let me know how?
Cheers,
Darshna.

I did it sometime back. A bit complicated process.
Create an infoobject, manually enter the values "keyfig1" and "keyfig2".
Include this infoobject in the filters and restrict it using a "ready for input" variable.
Now create two formula variables.
Write a customer exit such that when you select "keyfig1", first formula variable's value should be set to 1 and other one's to 0.
Then in the query create two calculated key figures, multiply both with the formula variable. Also supress column (all active value == 0).
Then it will show the key figure which you have selected.

Can I put a SQL query into a bind variable and then use it to output report

Hi,
Can I put a SQL query into a bind variable and then use it to output report?
I want to create a report and an item "text area" (say P1_TEXT) which can let user to input a SQL query(they are all technical users and knows SQL very well). Then, I use a bind variable (that text area) to store the SQL statement. Then, I add a submit button and I want to use the following to output the report:
select * from (:P1_TEXT);
Do you think it is possible to do that? Any known limitations for APEX in this area?
Thanks a lot,
Angela

You can, but make sure it's what you really want to do. Make sure you are VERY familiar with SQL Injection. Most people who know what it is, go out of their way to prevent SQL Injection. You're going out of your way to allow it.
You can try using &P1_TEXT. instead of bind variable syntax. Bind variables are one of the best ways to prevent SQL Injection, which is why it's not working for you.
Once again, I strongly urge you to consider the implications of your app, but this suggestion should get it working.

I can not put the data of a field(LONG RAW) consulted into a item of a data block

I want to query a field that is LONG RAW(it's a image) and put the data into a item of a data block (in Forms Builder), when i write ":BLOCK.FOTO:=vfoto" i recieve this errors: "bad bind variable ....". How can i put the data of field of my DB and put the data in a item of a data block(in Forms Builder)?.
I can store a image in a table of my DB, but i want to query a image stored in my DB and put it into anothers table, all this on FORMS BUILDER.

You have to base the image item on a base table and use EXECUTE_QUERY on that block. You can't do a direct select in PL/SQL into the item

Need to raise a restriction that user can not put multiple PO references in PO Number field in Sales Order.

Hi,
reference to subject we need a restriction that user can not put different PO reference within an Order. One Sale Order should have one PO reference at Header and Line's of the sales order. Currently what is our issue that all the sales order are created by Quotes from quoting module. Whatever the line items come from quotes into sales order having no PO Number reference with them but when user completing the sales order user puts the PO reference at Sales Order Header which can not be linked or passed on those line items who captured from quotation. Due to this PO reference value difference between Lines and Header system generates multiple AR invoices based on unique PO Number references within an order.
we need single PO reference per sales order. How can we restrict this if line level PO number reference is different from Header PO number reference that user can not proceed further?

Can we put INDEXES on Views if not Is there any way to make it Index bas

Hi
I am running a query in which there are several views involved in the join condition Can we put INDEXES on Views in ORACLE 9i if not Is there any way to make it Index based views beacuse the result that i am getting is very slow and is eating like 10gb of the temp tablespace.
Thanks

No, you cannot put indexes on a view. Think about what a view is, a stored sql statement. Oracle has no way of knowing what rows are in a view until it actually runs the view. So, even if you could, Oracle would need to run the view to get the rows, build the index, then run your query a second time using the index. Seems counter productive to me. A view can use indexes on the underlying tables if appropriate.
Generally speaking, I would say that a query that makes use of multiple views is probably really inefficient. Often, you are only looking for one or two columns from a view which may require joining several tables whose columns are of no use in the main query. I would start by re-writing the query using the base tables, and only using those tables that are actually required to answer the question.

How can i add formula to waveform data type?

I want to interpolate my acquired data in terms of voltage to temperature. For this i need to use polynomial equation, but i am not able to directly attach formula node to the waveform data type. I want to know how can i add formula node to waveform data, and then also have it real time.

One additional thought that may be helpful. Once you get the Y component of the waveform graph you are going to attempt to wire this into a formula node. You can do one of two things with that array. Put a for loop around the formula node and index the array into and out of the for loop. This allows you to do scalar math on the data. It is also possible to index and array in a formula node. The following KnoledgeBase demonstrates how to do this: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/3efedde4322fef19862567740067f3cc/9d72b6069346942386256a0d00604ed4?OpenDocument

Curerency conversion for a Formula in the query designer

Hi
I have a ' Financial Loss Formula' in the report. I want to convert this 'Financial Loss' into USD Currency at query designer level.
Source Currency = SAR
Target Currency = USD
So how can i do the curerency conversion for a Formula in the query designer.
pls let me kow
kumar

Hi,
If you define your query conversion in BW then it is easy to do currency conversion through Bex.What you need to do is use calculated key figure instead formula and do a right click select properties there at the currency translation area you ca select defined currency conversion in BW and your target currency.

Creating formula in the Query Designer

Hi,
I have a KF which I have to convert in to different unit in the query ( x/data)
The problem is some of my data in the cube is zero (0) and when I use division, it shows me error (red X) in the query output.( Divide by zero)
Is there any way to skip this division if the data is zero? How can I set my formula in the Query designer?
Thanks
M Kumar.

Hi,
Please use the NDIV() or NOERR() function outside of your expression and it will take care of the division by zero.
See here for details:

Adding a formula in a query

Hey Guys,
I am trying to add a formula in my query, i have the asset acquisition value and the accumulated depreciation value in different columns. I want to get column A - column B in column C.
How can i do this?
Thanks,
Zaid

The fields that you want to use in the calculated field will need to be included in the Field Selection list in your query (I don't think you have to include the fields in the query output, but they do need to be available in the Field selection).
After reading your reply, I realized that I forgot a step... sorry... After going into the Field Selection, but before creating the local field, you will need to assign short names to the fields you want to use in the calculation. To assign short names, you'll first need to turn on the short names column, if it's not already displayed. Select Edit -> Short names -> Switch on/off. Find the fields to be used in the calculation. For each field, enter a unique name in the short name box next to the field.
Once you've assigned short names, you can create the local field. Use the short names for the fields in the calculation. And after you've created the local field, be sure to assign it to the query output.

BI Auth - user still can search & execute for not authorized query

Hello All,
need your help here.
For BI security,
I've configured menu role (for example ZBEX_FIN) in order for the end users to see only specific queries/workbook inside the menu folder that assigned to him/her.
And I've made a function role for end user, copy from the template S_RS_RREPU with the modification:
1. I delete 0BI_ALL
2. add S_USER_AGR and put my menu role above (ZBEX_FIN) for field ACT_GROUP
3. add S_RS_FOLD to disable the infoarea button in BEx.
currently the user can see and execute report assigned in the role menu folder, this is correct.
But the problem is there's a find button in the BEx, when the user try to search other query (non authorized query,the one that supposed he can't see), he still can display the query, then can execute the query. This is not acceptable.
Anyone can suggest whether I can disable the find button in the BEx
or any other restriction in the role that I missed, so the user can only execute and display the query/workbook under the role menu only.
Thanks in advance.

So it means that we need to do it twice restrictring the query in the role menu and then inside the S_RS_COMP ?
so later when the user wants to add more queries in his role, we need to add those in the role menu as well inside the S_RS_COMP. is this correct ?
When you add queries/workbook to role menu, you are not restricting the access. Its just that user menu would list those queries/workbooks. Users can search for other queries and workbook and run them with proper authorizations in S_RS_COMP. You may consider maintaining query naming convention with wild cards for example YRZ* etc to give access to all queries/workbooks starting with YRZ. This would save your effort to update role too freqeuntly.
And if I have a workbook, how I put it inside the S_RS_COMP ? because the component of S_RS_COMP is query only.
S_RS_COMP can restrict queries as well as workbooks with field RSZCOMPTP= REP
