Can we use Evaluate Function in Dashboard Prompt

Hi
Can anybody tell me
Can we use Evaluate Function in Dashboard Prompt.
If yes...How
Thanks in Adv

Yes ! You Can!
while creating the dashboard prompt, under "Show" pick SQL results and you write the SQL statement and include the EVALUATE function.
I have several such examples. Most of of dashboard pages are parameter driven.
1. 1st paratmeter - users specify the dates
2. 2nd parameter - constrains the results for the period specified in 1st paramter and my SQL for 2nd paramter looks like this -
SELECT table1.column1
FROM table, datedim1, table1,table2
WHERE datedim1.date BETWEEN EVALUATE( 'TO_DATE(%1,%2)','@{presentation variable1}','dd/mm/yyyy') AND EVALUATE('TO_DATE(%1,%2)', '@{presentation variable 2}','dd/mm/yyyy')

Can we use Evaluate function in Prompt

Hi all
Can we use Evaluate Function in Dashboard Prompt?
I need some exposure on how to use it.
I am working on a HRMS-OLTP Source where I need to work with Oracle Functions from OBIEE.
IF somebody can tell me that, It will be a favour for me....
ThanQ

Hi All,
Here's an example of how to use evaluate. This use calls the Oracle TO_DATE function: EVALUATE('TO_DATE(%1,%2)' as DATE, '03/03/2009', 'MM/DD/YYYY')
Here's how it works: EVALUATE( '<FUNC>' AS <DATATYPE>, VALUE1,VALUE2,etc)
FUNC) Is the syntax for the function you are calling. Any parameters have to be replaced by %<number>, where number refers to the order in which you specify your parameters.
DATATYPE) The datatype that the function will evaluate to. In this case, DATE.
VALUE1) The latter part of the formula is a comma separated list of all the parameters used in the function. In this case, it's the date I want to cast
VALUE2) This is the second parameter. You need as many as you referenced in your function. In this case, it's the date format.
Good luck and if you found this post useful, please award points!
Best regards,

How to use evaluate function for sql server function

Hi Team,
We have imported a column(date dtat type) from SQL server cube . By default it imported as varchar,. We have three option in physical layer for this column(Varchar,Intiger,unknown)
So we want to convert this column into date.can we use evaluate or there is any option to do that.?

Hi,
I am not sure your requirement. But how pass evaluate function obiee?
syntax:- EVAULATE('your db function(%1,%2)', parameter list)
here %1 and %2 are the no.of parameters (columns or may constant values) to be passed for the db-function
if you have 3 parameters then you need to use %3 also.. means the columns to be passed.
following exapmples are for ORACLE db,
ex1: EVALUATE('upper(%1)', 'satya ranki reddy') gives the result as -> SATYA RANKI REDDY
ex2: EVALUATE('upper(%1)', 'Markets.Region') here Markets.Region is column.
you also can call the user-defined functions through evaulate
EVALUATE('functioname(%1,%2), column1, column2)
the above function has 2 parameters to be inputted
Hope this help's
Thanks

Using EVALUATE function

Hello to all!
I have a problem using EVALUATE function in BI report column. In my schema I have created stored function.
Call looks like
evaluate('PKG1.GET_STAMP_DATE(%1)' as date,"Доп. аналитики"."Документ")
Состояние: HY000. Код: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 17001] Oracle Error code: 904, message: ORA-00904: "PKG1"."GET_STAMP_DATE": invalid identifier at OCI call OCIStmtExecute. [nQSError: 17010] SQL statement preparation failed. (HY000)
I tried function IN package and OUTSIDE package. The same.
What's wrong???
Tnanks in advance...

Hi,
Check this function in database wether it is working or not.
The identifier (column name, function, …) entered is invalid or unknown.
This can have a number of reasons:
It can be an unknown function, a column name that does not belong to a table, an invalid table alias, …
The following function is not known
SQL> select unknown_function from dual;select unknown_function from dual
*ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00904: "UNKNOWN_FUNCTION": invalid identifier
The following column does not exist in the table:
SQL> select X1 from dual;select X1 from dual
*ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00904: "X1": invalid identifier
Please refer the below thread might be help u..

Can not use TOUCH function on Nokia 6600 slide

Can not use TOUCH function on Nokia 6600 slide-
turned on sensor in phone settings, but when i touch the PHONE it does not work.
Please, tell me how use this function or maybe my phone is out of order

As long as your Sensor Settings are On within Menu, Settings, Phone, Sensor Settings then you just need to do the following -
Tapping
The tap function allows you to quickly
mute and reject calls and alarm tones, and
to display a clock just by double-tapping
the back or front of the phone when the
slide is closed.
Select Menu > Settings > Phone >
Sensor settings to activate the tap
function and vibration feedback.
Mute calls or alarms
Double-tap the phone.
Reject a call or snooze an alarm after
muting it
Double-tap the phone again.
Display the clock
Double-tap the phone.
(If you have missed calls or received new
messages, you must view them before you
can see the clock.)
Simply, if you double tap the screen when the slide is closed and you can see the clock appear then it is working.
I hope this makes it clearer for you.

Can I use "dvt" function for customizing the chart format in OBIEE 11g?

Hi,
".pcxml" file cannot be found in OBIEE11g. However, can I use "dvt" function for customization? If yes, how?
Reference for dvt function:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/apirefs.1111/e12418/tagdoc/dvt_pieGraph.html

Hello,
I know it's possible, because i already found some blogs about changing the chart colors and turning off the animated graphs.
<Graph visualEffects="NONE" animationDuration="0">
But we want to alter more chart options, like make a bar chart default stacked. In 10G this was possible. I think this is also
possible in 11G through the dvt-graph-skin.xml, but what i want to know is, is there a document that explains which tags you could use in this file.
It would be great to get some help on this.

For a particular sales order,you have to pass the order number and the item number in the sales order.
It will display the rest of the values which u can capture them using internal tables.

Best practices on using EVALUATE functions

hi, experts,
I wanna know what is the best practices on using EVALUATE functions on obiee (calling oracle user defined functions)
I found that if I use evaluate functions in Answers,
obiee will construct a sql behind and then execute.
sometimes, obiee contructs some unexpected sqls, and returns errors.
so, is it better to use EVALUATE functions in logical columns ?
thanks

EVALUATE('DB_Function(%1)' as returntype, {Comma separated Expression})
even when used in Logical columns, its gonna fire the same sql.

Elements 11 Organizer window is truncated at top, on iMac running 10.9.2, so I can't use Share function, etc.

Elements 11 Organizer window is truncated at top, on iMac running 10.9.2, so I can't use Share function, etc.

Thank you very much. I changed the resolution from 2048 x 1152 to 1600 x 900, and it showed the bar with the Import, Media ... Create, Share buttons, but did not show the bar at the very top with the red, yellow and green buttons for closing, hiding and maximizing the window.
Then I noticed that Apple had an update to Mavericks available. Since I installed that, I can set the resolution back to 2048 x 1152 and still see the Import, etc. bar. I can live without the Close and Maximize buttons, but it does seem like there is a bug lurking here that either Adobe or Apple needs to fix.

Can i use malloc function while using DLL created from C program

Hi,
I have written a simple program in C , which uses malloc function for allocating memory for the array.When iam calling that DLL using call library function node in labview, it is not giving any output, my doubt is can we use malloc function in C program from which we will create DLL and is called in labview? I am attaching my C code and DLL and also labview file please tell me where i am doing wrong?
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Vishnu,
There's no problem using the Malloc function in C and call it as a DLL in LabVIEW.
But LabVIEW has a different memory management than C.
It is probably not recommended to allocate array memory in C for labVIEW arrays
You can use initialize array in LabVIEW instead.
Good luck
