Change format date for Calendar Prompt!!!

Hello there,
For a date prompt when I choose *"Calendar"* in my control, the default format shown by the calendar is d/mm/yyyy.
I want to save the value of my date prompt into a Presentation variable with the format yyyy-mm-dd. What conversion function can be used to achieve this?. In oracle the easiest way is TO_CHAR(dateHere,'YYYY-MM-DD') but when I apply this in the Edit Formula of the prompt it gives me an error.
I know the date format for a Calendar object can be changed in the configuration file, but I want to avoid this, because I might affect other users.
Please help.
Thanks

上述代码片段为BO生成实例的过程，程序不会出错。但BO报表历史记录中，提示：The date for the prompt 'startDate' is invalid. (WIS 10706)
刚开始认为：日期格式错误，我便加上了
if("DATE".equalsIgnoreCase(p.getObjectType().toString()))
       String formatStr=p.getInputFormat();
       for(int x=0;x<temp.length;x++)
              temp[x]=DateUtil.DateToString(DateUtil.StringTODate(temp[x]),formatStr);
需且验证日期格式，正是p.getinputFormat()所要求的格式，可BO历史记发中，生成实例还是报上述错误。

Hello Anh,
With XI 3.1 some significant fixes were delivered to address issues like you describe : create a query with QaaWS Designer using date input parameters (prompts) with a given locale, then edit (with QaaWS Designer) the query under another different locale, where dates are set with a different format.
AFAIK QaaWS queries keep the locale under which they were created, fixes were aimed at translating input parameters in the right format so errors like the one you describe should not be encountered.
i suggest you get in touch with the SAP BusinessObjects tech support with your issue, so we will be able to investigate further in conjunction with QaaWS dev team and work out a fix, if this turns out to be a bug.
BTW, Have you considered upgrading to a more recent Service Pack? Business Objects Enterprise XI 3.1 SP3 is now available since 2010 Q2 (no guarantee, though, that this issue would be solved with this SP)
Hope that helps,
David.

Who change format date?

hi,
who i can change format date in servidor ORACLE for all client?
Thank´s

The default format can be set by changing the NLS_DATE_FORMAT initialization parameter and restarting the database, alter system set nls_date_format = "YYYYMMDD" scope=spfile; and the database has to be shutdown and restarted to enforce the change. It might be alter database instead of alter system, I usually try the wrong one first.
But the setting can be overridden in the client setup or changed in a user session, there's no way to enforce a particular format on the client environment.

So, i have bad news for you : you'll have to rebuild again.
Meanwhile i have excellent news for you : there's an online tool made by Johannes Henseler called Sidecar xml which builds the necessary xml file for you, sort of what you find in the Digital Publishing Folio Editor website, but saves it in your Folio folder.
Next time you import all your folder (with that file), it will place all the necessary information, and even reorder the articles.
Build once, play many times.

Format Date for time.

i have a doubt as to how to store the date along with time from my front-end Forms Developer Suite 9i application.
I am trying to give this kind of statement from SQL-plus:-
update login_master set last_accessed=to_Char(sysdate,'dd-mon-yy HH:mi:ss')
where login_ID = :GLOBAL.LOGIN_ID
but, there is a message which comes like this:-
ORA-01830 date format picture ends before converting string.
Also, i want to compare this time stored against time a little later, say after 1 or 2 hrs to get number of minutes.
How can i do this? I hope, my question is clear. Please help in solving the doubt.
regards.

Function Module/Document to change Reversal date for FI document.

Can anyone please provide me with the Function Module/Document to change Reversal date for FI document.

Hi Vikram,
Normally, you post a reversing document in the same period you posted the original document. The period of the original document must be open to post a reversing document. If the period is not open, you can overwrite the posting date field with a date in an open period, such as the current period.
Regards,
Manoj.

Block change on dates for Approved Purchase Request

Hi expert,
I'm new to SAP Business One.
I required to block change on dates for approved Purchase Request.
What will be the best solution and how-to achieve this objective?
Thank you.

Hi,
My company currently using SAP B1 version 9 PL05.
I have already applied approval procedure that it will always launch approval procedure for Purchase Request document (attached screenshots for setup approval procedure).
With above setup, Purchase Request document can only added after it has been approved (an [Approved] text has been shown on document view window and status is 'Open' as per attached below)
The dates have not disabled for editing although it has go through approval process.
The dates also not disabled for editing (Status is 'Closed' as per attached screenshot below) after it has been drawn to Purchase Order document.
Is anyone encounter this issue?
I know that SP_TN can prevent update but it is just a workaround method, not a best solution that I'm looking at.

Date format for Calendar Prompt in Oracle BI

Hi,
1)
In Oracle Answers, I need to have this format : dd-MMM-yy in a Calendar Prompt
I've changed in localedefinitions.xml :
<property name="dateShortFormat">dd-MMM-yy</property>
<property name="dateOrder">dmy</property>
<property name="dateSeparator">-</property>
<property name="dateFormats">
<property>dd-MMM-yy</property>
</property>
then I've restarted all services, but still, the format is (only in Calendar prompt) : dd-mm-yyyy (ex : 16-01-2007).
I'm using : Oracle Business Intelligence Product Version 10.1.3.3.3 (Build 080430.1930).
2)
related to this, I set the value of a presentation variable with the value of returned by this Calendar Prompt. I need to compute (in a report column) the difference (in days) between some column and that presentation value .
I've tried :
TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY, Attributes."Modified Date", TIMESTAMP '@{v}')
But I get errors related most probably to the way TIMESTAMPS seems to work : getting only 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss' like parameters ? any idea how to convert variable v to timestamp , using a custom mask ?
Thank you !

right now, Calendar prompt displays (by default) dates using the format : DD-MM-YYYY, although I tried to configure everything to DD-MMM-YY
If using folowing formula in a column : TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY, Attributes."Modified Date", CAST('@{v_reference_date}' AS DATE))
i got errors (State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 17001] Oracle Error code: 1843, message: ORA-01843: not a valid month at OCI call OCIStmtExecute: )
I got errors for TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY, Attributes."Modified Date", @{v_reference_date})) as well.
It works for TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY, Attributes."Modified Date", CAST('@{v_reference_date}' AS DATE)) only if I directly type the date (in the Calendar prompt) using a DD-MMM-YY or a DD-MM-YYYY- format .
so , I will need to force Calendar to use DD-MMM-YY format (don't know if it is possible), or, in the worst case, I should be able to CAST a string to date using a mask provided on the spot (something like to_date('01-13-2010', 'dd-mm-yyyy') )

Issue: UK format date 02/08/13 is "said" by Voice Control as "2nd August" - the date is in the calendar correctly as 8th Feb.
Steps to repeat the issue: "Schedule new appointment" using the Voice Control and add an appointment today (8th Feb 2013) - correctly added to the Calendar but the voice confirmation says "2nd August".

Could you pls solve me out ?
Thank you

Hi,
Sorry, I'm not sure I uderstand the problem.
Are you getting the date correctly, but you want to store it in a VARCHAR2 column? That's not a very good idea: dates belong in DATE columns, but if you ever want to convert a DATE into a string, use TO_CHAR:
TO_CHAR ( TO_DATE ( TRUNC ( DBMS_RANDOM.VALUE (2455532, 2455563+3)
            , 'J'
     , 'DD-MM-YYYY'
     )or equivalently:
TO_CHAR ( DATE '2010-12-01' + dbms_random.value (0, 34)
     , 'DD-MM-YYYY'
     )Since you're not displaying the hours, minutes or seconds, there's no point in using TRUNC just to set them to 00:00:00.

How to format data for a custom group

Hi all
I have a pivot table with Actual and Budget as columns and some accounts in the rows. Since I'm using the account hierarchical column, I created custom groups for the accounts using the Selection steps pane. For example, I created a new group called Profit to combine 3 different Profit accounts and display one Profit line.
Now I want to format the data for the Profit group. I right-click on the Profit group, choose to edit the group and click on the Format button on the bottom left corner. I add some formatting, e.g. borders. When I now view the pivot table, borders have been applied to the label of the group - so the word Profit is now bordered. However, the values in the Actual and Budget columns do not have a border. Don't know what I'm missing, but I want both the group label and the values to be formatted the same way.
How can I apply formatting to the data/values for the custom group?

Yeah tried that already, it formats the entire column whereas I need just the values for the Profit row to be formatted. Seems it is a limitation only when using custom groups?

Can we change pricing date for line item in billing

Hi Expert,
Can we change pricing date , while raising inoice for particular line iteam

Hi,
We can not change the pricing date for perticular line item at billing document level, the only option is we can enter the required date at the time of invoice creation in VF01 screen.
If your requirement is copying the same pricing date that is entered at sales order, then do the following.
Go to T Code:VTFL and choose your DElivery Type and Billing Type, then choose your item category and then change the pricing type as 'D' .
