Change of sign(+/-) in report

Hi
  In an report i have an key figure (Total spend) The value that shows me in the report is -ve but I need to display it as positive. (E.g): The existing value in the report shows up -20 Now i will have to change the valu to +20. Is there any option in the query designer to do that?
Thanks a lot
Sheetal

Sheetal,
You need to create a Calcualted keyfigure or a formula for this.
1. Right click on the Keyfigures in Columns and select New forumla and enter into edit mode. or In the infoprovider right click on keyfigures and select new calculated keyfigure
2. In the operators Section go to the mathematical operators and select the Absolute value
3. Then select your <Total spend> from the Keyfigures section in the Avaiblable operands section.
4. Finally the formula should look like ABS(Total spend)
5. Keep this formula or calculated key figure in the columns instead of your current Total spend keyfigure.
Hope it helps,
Regards, Uday

  • How to change currency sign in report

    How can I change the currency sign in report like from dollar to pound sign. Any help and advice will be highly appreciated.

    Sherry,
    I'm stumbling my way thru the same question. we need to print the currency symbol based on the country defined in the data. here's the not-so-short answer:
    we're looking into storing the currency symbol as a unicode value (NVARCHAR2 field) in the database by country and linking it to the data selected in the report. I have a select statement in the report sql that retrieves the correct unicode value per data row. the question then seems to become: do i want to display the field as a number with a format mask, or convert the whole thing to a string/char value?
    Keeping everything as a number, in the report format field Format Trigger, i create a mask for each field and call a function to do the following:
    v_format := q'{(}' || q'{"}' || p_currency || q'{"}' || v_format || q'{)}';
    this gives you a mask with the parenthesis for negative numbers, the currency as literal string, and the v_format (NN,NNN,NNN,NNN,NN0.00) for currency amounts. we vary the # of decimal places and pass that value into the function (just to make things complicated.)
    the 'uber complex' version of the function converts the number field to a string/char value. this allows you to change the decimal and separator values for an individual data row. we have not decided to implement this, but it works. you have to enter a 'bogus' character field in the report format and use srw.set_field to change the value at runtime. this keeps the value as a number in the sql for math, but a char to display. complicated. the function does this...
              v_format := '999G999G999G990';
              v_decimalplaces := MOD((p_decimalplaces * 10),10);
              IF v_decimalplaces > 0 THEN
                             v_format := v_format || 'D';
                   FOR i in 1..v_decimalplaces LOOP
                   v_format := v_format || '9';
                   END LOOP;
              END IF;
              CASE WHEN SIGN(p_value) >= 0
                   THEN
                        v_format := p_currency || TO_CHAR(p_value, v_format, 'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = '',.'' ');
                        ELSE
                        v_format := '(' || p_currency || TO_CHAR(ABS(p_value), v_format, 'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = '',.'' ') || ')';
                   END CASE;
    we would pass the values of NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS to the function.
    the last 'hitch' is that not every UNICODE currency symbol displays properly. the euro (hex 20AC) is fine, but the korean won (hex 20A9) is not. the database character set is AL32UTF8, and the sql works fine in sql_developer. however, reports does not reliably display the symbol. i have a TAR into oracle at the moment, hoping for clarification. there seem to be many layers in oracle reports to get this to work (database character set, report server character set, font in developer, font on report server, etc.)
    let us know how it goes...an often asked, but rarely answered question (IMO). hopefully this gives you some ideas.
    thanks,
    john

  • How to transport Parameter changes in a crystal report

    Hi All,
    Very Good morning!!!
    I have designed a crystal report with static parameters. Earlier i used to have a dropdown kind of input selection for my parameters.
    Now i got a new requirement for a direct input in the field....tht means no dropdown ...single date field is to be entered directly.
    Accordingly i have removed the dropdown and changed to a single direct date field. I saved these changes to a request and transported to quality. Not sure whether the parameter changes are collected into a request.
    Whereas i couldn't found any changes of my parameters in quality. They are as same dropdown manner in the quality whereas i need them to be a direct field date entry which did not affected the quality server after transporting the changes.
    Could some one please let me know how to reflect these changes in quality server regarding parameter changes in a crystal report for BW.
    Thanks in Advance.

  • Change of sign while extracting data using Open hub

    Hello All,
    We are extracting data from Info cube to a file in the application server using Open hub.
    While extracting data, if there is any negative value for the key figure, negative sign is appending on the right side of the value(Eg: "123.67-"), which is the standard behaviour but I want the sign to be on the left side of the value (Eg: "-123.67") while extracting to the file at application server.
    Could any one please let me know if there is any setting to do this change ?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Changing the SIGN position from one side of the NUMBER to the other side can happen in following ways.
    1) After the file is place in the application server. Deploy a OS SCRIPT file (for .csv) for obtaining the required changes to the required COLUMN [Basis team will have more idea on this]
    2)This is time consuming idea. well deploy a routine at the Open hub -Infospoke level.

  • Acrobat 9 (or 9.1) -- Script changes prevent signing -- any workarounds?

    I was having problems understanding the behavior of my form until I came across the document at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/reader/articles/reader_compatibility/readercomp_digitalsignatu res.pdf .
    My use case, which is a little convoluted, so could probably be streamlined, is that my application server presents a PDF to the user in a browser for them to review / sign.
    In some cases, I was getting the message "The document could not be signed."  with no other explanation (unlike many other threads which cite more detailed messages with a similar feel).
    After reading the section of that doc titled "Script changes prevent signing", I understand why since my form was making script changes
    So, now that I understand the situation, I have some options to work around it but presently none are great.
    The issue in a nut shell:
    1. The form is delivered to the browser, so the notion of save/close/re-open/sign doesn't make sense
    2. A button is on the form, with form submit on MouseUp.  This is the part that causes problems ... the application server is generating the (same) MouseUp action for ANY button and, at this point, I don't have a way to prevent that.
    3. My "illegal" script change was a Page Open script that replaced the MouseUp action to what it "should" be.
    4. The problem button is one that I want MouseUp to fire a launchURL instead of a submit.
    The workarounds I've considered:
    1. Replace the button with a link or non-button fields that has the correct actions.  Workable but not a great UI metaphor.
    2. Putting the "right" action on the MouseDown.  Also workable, but since this doesn't actually prevent the MouseUp from firing, it creates confusing user experience if I there are problems that prevent form submission (and I am not clear if the launchURL in fact prevents the form submission or not).
    Are there any other workarounds?  Is there any wiggle room on the restriction about no script changes?  The script that changes the MouseUp action is defined in an application level javascript file, so I tried making it trusted but that did not seem to make a difference.  I feel like
    I have a similar, but less import case for a true submit button.  I want to also send email on form submission, but since I cannot the form submission on MouseUp, there is no way for me to only send mail when the form is submitted (i.e. all required fields filled in).  So, I am presently always sending the mail in MouseDown.

    It sounds to me like the same option. Perhaps it also applies to non-PostScript printers now. If the printer is capable of good colour management (many are not); and if the PDF is properly tagged with source profiles, no reason why results shouldn't be good.

  • How to Change Fonts in Oracle Reports

    Hi All,
    When ever i am changing fonts in my report it reflects me when i run them on reports builder installed on my local machine.
    But when i put them on application server, these changes are not reflected. I am generating PDF reports.
    Can some body help me what should i need to do to reflect the font changes.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Kamal

    Hi Kamal,
    Whether the font used in the report is installed in the machine where Apps server is installed? If not , use the feature ' PDF Aliasing' to substitue for that particular font.
    For more information on this, have a look at the chapter "Managing Fonts in Oracle Reports" in Publishing Reports Manual. You can download it from http://download.oracle.com/docs/pdf/B14048_01.pdf.

    Hi Shiv,
      I checked the transaction ME49 and found that it is based on a executable report called RM06EPS0. Also it is very much possible to make changes to this repor using the enhancement points. I found that already the report provides a lot of enhancement points. Here have a look:-
    1) ENHANCEMENT-POINT RM06EPS0_G4 SPOTS ES_RM06EPS0
    2) ENHANCEMENT-POINT RM06EPS0_01 SPOTS ES_RM06EPS0
    3) ENHANCEMENT-POINT RM06EPS0_G5 SPOTS ES_RM06EPS0.
    4) ENHANCEMENT-POINT RM06EPS0_G6 SPOTS ES_RM06EPS0.
    5) ENHANCEMENT-POINT RM06EPS0_G7 SPOTS ES_RM06EPS0.
    6) ENHANCEMENT-POINT RM06EPS0_02 SPOTS ES_RM06EPS0.

    You have to change the Default Workbook template in the Global Settings of BEx Analyzer. You might have to do this directly in production environment.
    Open up a query in BEx Analyzer. Change the logo or add the logo and any information you want to default in all reports. Save as a workbook and then click on global settings to set that workbook as a default.
    The below link gives you detailed step by step method to create default templates.
