Converting multiple records to a single "Y" on a report?

Okay, here's one for the experts. I have a table that's a many-to-one relation to each line of detail on my report. For example, a hard drive, Part Number 1234, might be assigned to multiple types of servers, i.e. it was assigned to 6 PE-C servers, 3 DCS servers, and 8 Blade servers. The assignment cross-reference table tells me the server PNs that the drive is assigned to. In the report detail for the hard drive PN, I have several categories, labelled: "PE-C", "DCS", "Blade", "EQL", etc. What I need to do for each line of main report detail (by PN), spin through the XREF file to find the PNs of the servers, then read each server for "Type". If even one server of a given Type (PE-C, etc) is assigned to that hard drive, I need the letter "Y" in the associated column, else a "N".
So it would look something like:
Part of the main Report Detail:
PN. . . . PE-C. . . DCS. . . Blade. . . EQL. . . CML
1234. . . . .Y. . . . . . Y. . . . . . N. . . . . .N. . . . . .Y
5678. . . . .N. . . . . . Y. . . . . . Y. . . . . .N. . . . . .Y
9012. . . . .Y. . . . . . N. . . . . . N. . . . . .Y. . . . . .Y
depending on which server types are assigned to the HD. There can be several server models under each type assigned to a drive, hence the many-to-one relationship.
So:
HD Master Table --> Server Assignment XREF Table -->Server Master Table
(HD Master: HD PN
Server Master: Server PN and TYPE
Server Assignment XREF: HD PN and Server PN)
I have absolutely NO CLUE how to go about doing this. Any thoughts or ideas would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks!!

Interesting. The problem is that the assignment is done through a stand-alone table, the Drive-Server-XREF table. That table only has the PN of the drive and the PN of the servers assigned to it. I would then need to take the PN of each server from that table, use it as a key to lookup the Server data, and pull the Type from that table. Then I would have to determine what the type is, and then assign a "Y" to a field (there would be something like 7 of these Y/N fields, one for each server type), depending on the type. Will your method work in that way?
So, for example, in the Drive Master table, we have ONE entry for PN 1234:
1234, somedata1, somedata2, etc
In the XREF table, we'd have something like:
1234,DX431 (the PN of the server it's assigned to)
1234, LT556
1234, AA221
1234, DP001
etc
Each of those PNs might be a different Type (or some of them would be the same type).
In the Server Master table, it would be:
DX431, somedata1, PE-C, somedata2
LT556, somedata1, Blade, somedata2
AA221, somedata1, Blade, somedata2
DP001, somedata1, DCS, somedata2
so you see, I would have to read across two tables to get what I need.

Convert multiple planned orders to single production order

Dear All !
In our business, same component is used for manufacturing multiple items. In a sales order multiple items are booked. When we do MRP RUN, system creates multiple planned orders for each line item. We can run only one production order as for every item order quantity becomes very small and we cannot process that lot. To have a sizable lot quantity we need to combine all planned orders into a single production order.
Can someone please help.

Govinder,
Define those components for collective processing. You need to define "2" - for Field Indv/Coll in MRP4 view of those material master and you can have daily/weekly/monthly lotsize defined for those items.

Prasobh

Converting Multiple Excel formulas to Single DAX formula

Hi,
I am trying to find a way in powerpivot of combining three 4 validation test columns into one column. The idea is that if the result in test 3 comes up with 'Exclude', I will filter it out of of a measure for a calculation I am doing. I have demonstated
the calculations I am trying to combine in fields k-n, not sure if anyone can help arrive at this result in one single powerpivot calculation - thanks for looking at this if you can help.

Grinch,
Combining into a single column would be possible but not advised, due to the complexity of the logic you are using. I would recommend - keeping the intermediate columns as shown to get to final result. Then you can right click and choose "Hide from
Client Tools" for all the intermediate columns so that they are not visible to the user (in the Pivot Table Field List).

Multiple strings input to single string output

Dear all,
this program is needed for my demo simulation purposes, I'm creating several string inputs to show into a single string output updating (input strings are shown in each line). i attached the picture below, put 2 output strings w/c both doesn't meet my desired result:
1.) 1st string output - replace the old string w/ new string. what i need is to maintain also the previous strings. the new string will go to the next line.
2.) 2nd string output - although i got all the strings i needed, it only appears right after the while loop terminates, so i did not see the string inputs updating.
i'm using LV 8.5.1., any help is appreciated... posting your correct code will be more appreciated.
thanks in advance...

Convert multiple row field to single line

Firstly: Apologies I am not a developer and am learning how to use crystal by error and hardwork.. so I'm a little slow on the lingo and the uptake.
I am creating a report that has under "details" a field {jobTests.testTypeName} this currently finds all tests associated with the job and lists them one under another. i.e
(Job blah blah) Test1
                      Test3
                      Test7
                      Test9
Job info (blah blah) is displayed by a different field under the details tab, it is not associated.
Then it repeats with the next job until all jobs under a PO are completed, then it moves to the next PO and continues
To save space I need to list the Tests beside one another i.e Test1, Test 3, Test7, Test9.
I haven't been able to work out how to do this at all.
OR
If it is possible can anyone tell me how to take the list of Tests that are output and enter them under an IF THEN statement...
I can choose one TEST and rename (as shown below) but I need to be able to choose a group of specific tests i.e   If Test1 + Test3 + Test7 + Test9 Then display "Group 1"
If {jobTests.testTypeName} = "TEST1" Then
   "T1"
Else
   {jobTests.testTypeName}
Thanks to anyone who can help. I hope my question makes sense.
Edited by: Kathryn Todd on Nov 11, 2008 4:01 PM fixed typo

Hi Kathryn,
If you haven't done so already, create a group on the Job.
In the Group Header for Job, create a formula like:
WhilePrintingRecords;
StringVar Tests := "";
In the Detail section, create a formula like:
WhilePrintingRecords;
StringVar Tests;
Tests := Tests & {jobTests.testTypeName} & " ";
Create a third formula in the Group Footer for the Job like:
WhilePrintingRecords;
StringVar Tests;
Here's what's happening. The first formula is in the Group Header to define and initialize the variable called Tests. The variable will be reset for each new Job otherwise you'd eventually get all the tests for all the jobs.
The second formula will create your string.
The last formula will display the string for each test.
Good luck,
Brian

SQL Query to convert multiple rows to a single row output

I have the following sql query;
SELECT B.ClientID,
B.BillNo, B.[BillDate],
B.CurrencyCode,
B.BAmount
FROM tblCompanyDetails CD
CROSS
APPLY (
SELECT TOP 5 B1.ClientID,
B1.[BillNumber],
B1.[BillDate], B1.[CurrencyCode] AS CCY,
B1.[BillAmount]
FROM tblBills B1
WHERE ROUND(B1.[BillAmount],2)<>0
AND B1.ClientID=CD.CompanyID
AS B
WHERE CD.ContactId=235405
ORDER
BY B.ClientID,B.BillNo
DESC
This gives me the following row output;
ClientID
BillNo
BillDate
CurrencyCode
BAmount
94466
425616
2015-04-07
GBP
5000
94466
424517
2015-01-15
GBP
6000
94466
424455
2014-10-15
GBP
4000
However, I would like the ouput to appear like this;
ClientID
BillNo1
BillDate
CCY
BAmount
BillNo2
BillDate
CCY
BAmount
BillNo3
BillDate
CCY
BAmount

I have tried to create a sample based on your question
CREATE TABLE MyTable
ClientID INT ,
BillNo INT,
BillDate DATE,
CurrencyCode varchar(5),
BAmount INT
INSERT INTO MyTable
VALUES (94466,425616,'2015-04-07','GBP',5000),

(94466,424455,'2014-10-15','GBP',4000)
Then I have used another table to put ranking in that, you can actually tweak your statement to include rank also
CREATE TABLE RowTable
ClientID INT ,
BillNo INT,
BillDate DATE,
CurrencyCode varchar(5),
BAmount INT,
Ranking INT
INSERT INTO RowTable
SELECT * , ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY ClientID) as row
FROM MyTable
Once your data is ready then execute below dynamic query
DECLARE @cols AS NVARCHAR(MAX),
@query AS NVARCHAR(MAX)
select @cols = STUFF((SELECT ',' + QUOTENAME(col+cast(Ranking as varchar(10)))
from RowTable
cross apply
select 'BillNo', 1 union all
select 'BillDate', 2 union all
select 'CurrencyCode', 3 union all
select 'BAmount' , 4
) c (col, so)
group by col, so, Ranking
order by Ranking, so
FOR XML PATH(''), TYPE

Convert a String to Decimal Format in European format

Hi Experts,
I am having a string as a context type for a input field, where the user can enter the Price, I need to convert the same into European format "###.###,00", I am using this below code to convert the string to decimal format
User will enter the input as 10 as it needs to be converted into 10,00. Also, 1000 which has to be converted as 1.000,00
String Str1 = wdContext.currentvn_temptable.getVa_TempUnitPrice();
Locale mylocale = Locale.GERMAN;
String pattern="###.###,00";
NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(mylocale);
DecimalFormat df = (DecimalFormat)nf;
df.applyPattern(pattern);
String output = df.format(Str1);
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Unit Price" + " " + pattern + " " + output);
When I execute the above code, i am getting an error called "Malformed Pattern ###.###,00"
Please let me know, how to convert a String to Quantity in European format
Thanks & Regards,
Palani

Hello!
Try to change your pattern to this one
Locale mylocale = Locale.GERMAN;
String pattern = "#,#00.00";
NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(mylocale);
DecimalFormat df = (DecimalFormat)nf;
df.applyPattern(pattern);
String output = df.format(1111111.222);
Pattern has an influence on number of digits between separators, but you have to use ',' for grouping and '.' for decimal. Character values for separators correspond to your Locale object.
Thanks, Mikhail
