Column - Value determination

Hi,
I am new to SAP HCM PMS. I want to configure template as shown below:
Tasks to be performed:
Task -1     Deliverable      Actual-achievement     Rating (Rating should be calculated as per Actual achievement against Deliverable)
Task -2     Deliverable      Actual-achievement     Rating (Rating should be calculated as per Actual achievement against Deliverable)
                                                                       Overall Rating(Average of above Ratings)
For the above requirement, what columns and respective value list & value determination can be used.
Furthermore, I am getting warning message"Value determination 'Value Determination - Overall Result (Weighted)' without dependent elements is of limited use" when I use Value determination as "TOTALERC" for Final Appraisal.
Kindly assist me in this regard.
Thanks and Regards,
Harish

Hi,
I know it's a bit outdated, but in case someone looks for the anwser I post it here. All you need to do is to implement method CUST_CHECK_EXECUTABILITY of your BAdI (HRHAP00_VAL_DET) specifying which columns it might be assigned to i.e. for FAPP:
   read table t_pt5022 with key column_id = 'FAPP'
                                 transporting no fields.
   if sy-subrc = 0.
     executable = 'X'.
   else.
     clear executable.
endif.
Now you are able to assign this BAdI implementation to FAPP column.

Performance Management EhP4 -- Value determination BAdi

What does the value determination BAdi do? How do you make it available in the appraisal document? I created a Z of the delivered value determination BAdi (hrhap00_value_det) and I also created in the enhancement areas (using oohap_basic). In the appraisal template I do not see them and I am not able to configure it

Steps that you need to take care when you create the Z of this BADI.
1. Create the Z- BADI.
2. Include this BADI in your enhancement area in OOHAP_BASIC. It might be for the appraisal template, criteria group or criteria itself.
3. Once included in the enhancement area you should go to PHAP_CATALOG_PA and include this BADI in the Category and Category group of the template in question.
4. After including this in category, you should go to the template in question and whichever COLUMN you need this BADI to calculate, just do an F4 on that column value determination field. You should be able to find it in the list. Use it.
Hope this helps.
Best Regards.

How to tell if column value has changed for use in workflow actions

Hello,
I am using Sharepoint 2010 and for one of my Lists, I am using a general list workflow. What I need to be able to do is determine if a column value has change (say an "Assigned To" field) because I only want to take some action if that particular
value has changed. I want to be able to have a workflow action that would be something like:
If Current Item: Assigned To not equals [OLD VALUE]
I have found some web searches that talk about creating a duplicate list or duplicate (but hidden) column but that doesn't seem to be the way to go. I have document versioning set but don't if that can be used to help with this. One possible
thought (although I haven't tried it to see if it works) is to create local variables and have the values in the variables be the "old value". Just not sure if there is a best practices for doing this.
Thanks for any thoughts - Peter

Helen,
Not sure I fully understand your goal. We don't use "tasks" at all but if you are looking to have your workflow check certain valus and be able to send email messages to people based on whatever, then you can certainly do that (as long as your Sharepoint
has the email setup. We do this for alot of workflow tasks.
So, in the workflow you can have a blanket statement like what I previously listed:
if Current Item:hiddenStatus not equals Current Item:Status
    .... do something
or you can do something like:
if Current Item:hiddenStatus equals "In-Progress"
    .... do something
Else if Current Item:hiddenStatus equals "Completed"
    .... do something
or combine the two and do nested "if" statements. Then you add an email statement wherever you need it like:
if Current Item:hiddenStatus equals "Completed"
   then email "these users"
To add the email part, just type in "email" on the line where you want to add a statment. There is only one option to choose from. That will display the line "then email these users".   The "these users" will be a link. When you
click it you will get a popup to add the email info. We typically will send the email to a user (or users) that are already listed in one of the PeoplePicker fields. On the email form, you can type in your own text, designate that a value is based
on a column value (like our PeoplePicker), designate that a value is based on a workflow variable, add a link to the current item, etc. To get to these options you will click the button to the right of the fields or use the "Add or Change Lookup" button
in the bottom-left for the text area. There is alot you can set in the mail.
Does this help answer your question?

Referencing Aggregated Column Value in Where Clause

Hello -
I'm trying to determine how I can accomplish the following in the most straightforward, efficient way.
Among other things, I'm selecting the following value from my table:
max(received_date) as last_received_dateI also need to evaluate the "last_received_date" value as a condition in my where clause. However, I can't reference my aliased "last_received_date" column value, and when I try to evaluate max(received_date) in the where clause, I get the "group function is not allowed here" error.
Does anyone know of a good workaround?
Thanks,
Christine

Hi,
Column aliases can be used in the ORDER BY clause: aside from that, they cannot be used in the same query where they are defined. The workarounds are
(a) define the alias in a sub-query, and use it in a super-query, like Someoneelse did, or
(b) repeat the aliased expression, as in the HAVING-clause, below.
Aggregate functions are computed after the WHERE-clause. (That explains why you can do things like
SELECT MAX (received_date) last_received_date_2008
FROM    table_x
WHERE   TO_CHAR (received_date, 'YYYY') = '2008';).
The HAVING-clause is like the WHERE-clause, but it is applied after the aggregate functions are computed, e.g.
SELECT    deptno
,         MAX (recieved_date) AS last_received_date
FROM      table_x
GROUP BY deptno
HAVING    MAX (received_date)    > SYSDATE - 7   -- Only show deptartments with activity in the last week

How to accessing current row report column value in Lov Query?

Hi,
which access methods (eg. bind variables, substitutions, ...) for getting the current row report column value can be used in the "Lov Query" property of a report column?
As what I know of and what I have read on the forum there are no bind variables for the report columns. For the "Link Text" property it seems that the column values exist as substitution strings (#COLUMN_NAME#). But they don't work in the Lov Query. => And would be good because of a hard parse each time the Lov query is executed.
The following post (Re: Simulating a correlated sub query in lov
is showing a solution to use package variables for temporary storage of the referenced value, but the only problem with that solution is that if a new record is added with the "Add rows to tabular form" process the package variable still contains the value from the last queried row! Is there a way (variable, APEX package, ...) to determine if the lov query is executed for a new record so that the package can return null?
I know that I could write the package in a way that the value is immediately cleared when lov_pkg.keyval is called (one time read), but then I would have to create several variables if I'm accessing the value multiple times in the query or in another query => I think an one time read solution would be very obscurely.
Thanks for your help

Hi Patrick,
I agree that it's a waste to continually use Ajax to go back to the server to get the contents of a dynamic select list.
There are no bind variables for any row item - but what you do have, as per my previous post, is the value of the data entered by the user in the first row. You can pass this into your application process (using get.add("VARIABLENAME", value)), which can use it to retrieve the correct LOV in your Ajax code - this will give you a "bind variable" that your process can use.
What you could do, however, is generate hidden select lists on your page - one for each possible LOV list and replace the contents of the new row's select list with the contents of the appropriate hidden select list. This is easy to do with javascript (using innerHTML functions). Obviously, though, the usefulness of this depends on the number and size of the select lists.
Even if you don't generate them to start with, you can keep a copy of any select lists returned by Ajax in the DOM for use on new rows. So, if you have retrieved a select list, you will have a copy of it in DOM which you can then copy into the new row. If you don't have the list in DOM, use Ajax to get it, store a copy of it and copy it into the new row.
Which method you use will depend on the number/size of select lists needed. If they are few in number and/or size, I would suggest generating hidden lists. If they are large, use Ajax to get them once, store them and then retrieve them from the DOM when needed.
There is another thread here where Arie recommends going to the server every time to make sure you get the most up-to-date data for the lists. If you want to follow this advice, for this reason, use get.add("VARIABLENAME", value) to pass the value to your process. If this is not an issue, you can use one of the other methods I outlined above.

Andy

Whatever route you take though, you won't do this simply in SQL as the column names of a query are required to be known before any data is retrieved when a query (cursor) executes.

Change Column Value based on Characteristic in Rows

I am not sure it is possible.
We have product prices at different levels of customer hierarchy.
Channel > Division > Region > Market
One Region can have multiple Markets. Each market can have different Rates. But the Region will have a different Rate which many not be the average rate of all market (assigned as part of master data)
I have a column for Product Price. So when a Report is run at Market Level it should use Market Rate. If Market is Removed and Region is dragged into the report it should use Region Rate for Product Price.
Product Price is Restricted by Rate Type value to determine which Rate is used.
Is there a way to dynamically determine the define the column value based on the characteristic value in the ROWS.
Thanks

Hi,
For every CHAR like Market/Region there will be some key. For example Maket1 = 11 and Market2 = 22. If that key is a number then you may create replacement path variable on that and convert the same in numbers then you may create various CKF (for various rate type) and put "If" condtion and check for those replacement path CKF and use the apprpriate one.
You need to write some tricky formula at CKF levels. This is one of the way to achieve that.
I hope it will help.
Thanks,

Value determination in Appraisal

Dear Friends,
I have created a quality scale which is like Everage --good-- excellent. this has to be come as a drop down value in the portal.
what is did is, I create a scale like ablove mentioned and create a column in the tample. now i want to assige this value for that column, i have done that in the element level.
but in portal still i did not get the scale value as a dropdown value againts the column. what i did wrong? do i want to write value determination badi and has to attached in the column?
Pls advise me.
Regards,
Saritha

Hi Andy,
i have assigned the scale to the colum. my required is the scale value ( everage- good-- excellent ) should come as a drop down list in the portal.
But in the configuration , as u said I tried all value input like ( no entry) and the (no note ). My doubt is wether I need to create value determination badi for this?

SSRS - Expression to color column value dynamically in Matrix

Hi ,
I have a matrix which looks like :
The <<Expr>> value can be 1 /0 /"-" .
The Expr value is being calculated dynamically.
The data set query I am using has a column called due_days.
In the color expression of the <<Exp>> box I am using the expression as :
=IIf(Fields!Due_Days.Value>14 and Fields!Notes_Count.Value>0,"Blue",(Iif(Sum(Fields!Notes_Count.Value)=0 ,"Red","Black")))
My requirement is if the Due_Days column value is >14 then I need to highlight the value as blue else black and if value is 0 then red. When I use the above query it is just highlighting the color blue for 1st column only. Eg: 4th row . Due days for month
of Oct and Nov is > 14 but it shows blue only for month of oct.
How can i resolve the issue?

In select query i have 5 columns:
Due days(Which is difference between 2 dates) ,
Notes count (Which is just a count of notes entered or not having value 0/1 and value '-' if another column CRD is greater than the matrix month and year.)Eg: below date 11/12/2014 is greater than Oct 2014 hence Oct 2014 should have "-"
Month Name , Year , Month Nbr (last 6 months which I cross joined with the table to get counts for each month)
The matrix has year and last 6 month as column groups
Color coding should be if notes count is 0 then red ,if notes count is 1 and due_days> 14 then blue else black . When i try to use expression for color as i mentioned above, it colors only 1st colum.eg: 2nd row
Nov 2014 is blue but for jan 2014 also it should show blue as due days>14 .
Is there any way i can do that ??
Eg: data set returns value as :
Due Days        CRD                              Month
Month_Nbr    Year   Notes _Count

How to insert column values into database as rows

Hi,
I have 8 columns and some not null columns. Based on not null columns I want to insert into table as rows. The 8 columns may contain values or no value. If the first column contains data, then I have to insert into one row. if the second column contains data I have to insert a row and in second column. respectively...So How can I insert column values into rows. Can I write 8 insert statements. (OR) is it possible to insert data from columns using where clause.

How to avoid to check if a column value is NULL?

Hi, I'm a newbee in Oracle.
I have a procedure like this:
create or replace
PROCEDURE get_employee
     v_first_name IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL ,
     v_middle_name IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL ,
     v_last_name IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL ,
To select rows with matching multiple column values, I can simply do this:
SELECT *
FROM employee
WHERE first_name = v_first_name
AND middle_name = v_middle_name
AND last_name = v_last_name
The problem is v_middle_name can be NULL. This means,
I need check if v_middle_name is NULL, and if it is, I need use "IS NULL" instead, like this:
SELECT *
FROM employee
WHERE first_name = v_first_name
AND middle_name IS NULL
AND last_name = v_last_name
It seems very cumbersome to do a check for each column that can be null.
Is there a way that I do not need to do a check for every column?
or is it better to avoid having NULL values in those columns (and replace them with, say a space) ?
Thanks in advance.
Simon

Normally, you would do something like
SELECT *
FROM employee
WHERE first_name = NVL( v_first_name, first_name )
   AND middle_name = NVL(v_middle_name, middle_name )
   AND last_name = NVL(v_last_name, last_name )Of course, if you can ensure that NULL data is not allowed (without creating phony non-NULL data), that is a good thing. In most systems, for example, it is probably reasonable to require a non-NULL first and last name. But you almost certainly cannot require a middle name.

Re-enable column values in tabular form before submit

Hi,
I am using Apex 4.1. I have a tabular form. I created a dynamic action to disable some of the columns on page load.
It works fine and I am able to add new rows. But when I click submit, all the column values are null and it is throwing validation error.
I need to enable all the columns before submit. I invoked a javascript to enable all the fields, but still i get the validation error.
I also tried creating dynamic action to enable the values but still I get the validation error becuase the values are all null.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks

Per HTML standards, disabled items are not submitted. Therefore if they are disabled at the point of submit, their corresponding session state values will be null (as you discovered). Apex validates against what is is session state, not against what is on your screen, so since the values didn't get submitted (per standards for HTML disabled items) that's why Apex thinks they are null.
Before submit, re-enable the items/columns and it should work fine.
Edit: Sorry, looks like you are doing this already. But are you doing it in the right order?
How I have done it is:
1. Change the save/apply changes button (whatever is doing the submit) to call a URL.
2. Make the URL call javascript, such as:
javascript:formSave('SAVE');
3. Put a javascript function on your region or page (hypothetical example):
<script type="text/javascript">
function formSave(pRequest)
{ //Put all checking and processing prior to form save here.
var vRequest="SAVE"; //default value taken from orig. "apply changes" button
if(pRequest)
vRequest=pRequest;
enableAllCells(gMaintActionCol); //Put whatever code you have to re-enable your tabular form items here, must fire before apex.submit.
//Do the save
apex.submit(vRequest);
</script>Edited by: gti_matt on Dec 1, 2011 3:04 PM
