Count the number of records

Hi all,
I have a BEx report that displays a list of empnos and their details based on a selection. Now I want to count the number of recrods that were selected and display the total number of records that were selected. How can this be done?
Thanks,
Sam

Dear all,
Thanks for the suggestions. Actially I had solved it in another way.
As suggested by Sharma, I had used a CKF as count, But i did not want the empnos to come as the rows with 1 displayed across each row.
I was trying to bring a summary in there.
So I had created a structure in Rows and in the structure created a new selection and in that selection included Employee.
This solved the problem that I was facing.
Thanks everyone for your time and effort!!
Cheers,
Sam

How do I count the number of records returned in the CMIS query

How do I count the number of records returned in the query CMIS?
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ora:t:IDC:GlobalProfile WHERE ora:p:xRegionDefinition = \'RD_PROJETOS_EXCLUSIVOS\''}
Euler Homero

Hi Euler,
interestingly enough, the reference guide for CMIS ( http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/CMIS_Query_Language ) that I found does not mention the COUNT function at all. On the other hand it states that: "The SELECT clause identifies which virtual columns to return in the result set. It can be either a comma-separated list of one or more queryNames of properties that are defined by queryable object types or * for all virtual columns."
There are, however, some other posts like e.g. http://alfrescoshare.wordpress.com/2010/01/20/count-the-total-number-of-documents-in-alfresco-using-sql/ which state that they could make it working.
Having asked in the WebCenter Portal forum, I assume that your content repository is WebCenter Content. The CMIS doc for the Content is available here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e15813.pdf (no COUNT there either). It does, however, mention explicitly that "CMIS queries return a Result Set where each Entry object will contain only the properties that were specified in the query.". This means your could rather investigate the Result Set. Note that there are also other means than CMIS how to get the requested result set (e.g. calling a search service directly via so-called RIDC).
In the given context I am also interested what your use case is. OOTB CMIS in WebCenter Portal is used, for instance, in Content Presenter, where it is content rather than "parameters" what's displayed.

Count the number of records between two key values (BTREE)

How can I count the number of keys between two values?
I'm using python driver, and BTREE access method.
====>
ideally what I want is to average a whole time-series data set (the intervals can change) to a given number of points. The keys are the time stamps and the values are the data that needs to be averaged. I need to count the number of records between two time stamps so that I can divide that number by the number of points i need, and average the data. What is the best way to do this? Or should I just keep the intervals for the time stamp constant and use RECNO access method?
Thank you
(first post btw.. and why aren't there many people in stackoverflow who answer Berkeley DB questions?)

BDB is an embedded db and it does not have any internal counters or statistics that you could grap to use for this. You will need to do it manually.
You can create a cursor, grap the records you want, each time you get the next record you bump a counter.
If you are using RECNO, you can use a cursor to get the record number of the record (DB_GET_RECNO), and if all you data is in
sequentail records with no missing records you can figure out the total count by take last rec # - initial rec # + 1 to get a total count.
If you switch over to the SQL API, you can issue a SQL query to give you a count. Select count(*) Where .......
Since you have to grab the data anyway, then best may be to count records as you go along.
thanks

Applescript - how can I count the number of records in a Word data source?

I have written a script in AppleScript to open Word and then perform a mail merge from a data source and everything is working fine.
One thing I want to do but am struggling with is to return the number of records in the mail merge.
I am trying things like:
get last record of datasource of mydatasource
and also haven't been able to find anything in the AppleScript 2004 Word Reference Guide.
Can anyone help as I have been searching the web and trying things all day and I am sure it can't be difficult.
Thank you.

I don't think there is an automatic way to get a line count, but I don't have any problem just counting the lines on a page. Maybe some more information about what you are trying to do and why you can't do it would help someone to come up with a helpful suggestion.

How to count the number of records retreived through a query?

Count the number of records in a group

Hi ,
My requirement is to display in the BI reprt - records in Order Entry Line Items based on several conditions on the fields.
If the above conditions do not returm any records ,show an error message - NO DATA FOUND.
1.checked in standard RTF templates where its a simple example as if :not(//servicereq).
But ,my RTF has serveral conditions on the group.
2.Is there a way to take a count of records in the group which statisfy the given condotions,so that I can checkif count = 0 .dislay message.
Apreciate your help.
Regards.

Ummmmm...no I didn't, hate to admit it.
Added the declaration to the 2 percentage formulas. Now I do get results for the percentage...they are just wrong. Only pattern I've found is that if the running total of Int or Ext is 1, the percentage is 11.39. If it is 2, the percentage is 22.78 and so on.
Each percentage is a multiple of 11.39 depending on the respective running total calculation. Maybe you can see what I have obviously missed.
NAME........TOTAL.......TOTAL Int........% Int........TOTAL Ext........%Ext
Burberry........20..............4..................45.56.............16 ..............182.23
Cellarosi.......11..............1 .................11.39.............10................113.90
Chalkley.......19..............2..................22.78.............17................193.62

(Repost) CR 8.5 I need to count the number or records 0

- - Crystal Reports 8.5 - -
I have two fields.
Qty Shipped and Qty Backordered.
I want to calculate the percentage of orders shipped.
Something like:
Count ({CIT_PT_RO_Fulfillment;1.QtyShip}) > 0
Count ({CIT_PT_RO_Fulfillment;1.QtyBackorder}) > 0
But I know these aren't correct as they return the value of True...
Then I'll take those two fields and calculate the percentage shipped...
Can someone help me with this?
Thanks
Kelvin

Try this
if count({CIT_PT_RO_Fulfillment;1.QtyShip})>0 then
((Count ({CIT_PT_RO_Fulfillment;1.QtyShip})-Count ({CIT_PT_RO_Fulfillment;1.QtyBackorder}))/Count ({CIT_PT_RO_Fulfillment;1.QtyShip})*100

How to calculate the number of records in Multiprovider

Hi Experts
I have created a report based on the multiprovider (Consist of Cube and ODS)
I need count the number of records inside the multiprovider, how can i do it in the reporting level
Regards
Santosh

Hi,
You can use calculated key figure with replacement path variable.
Follow This:
1) From the context menu of the Key Figure directory, choose New Calculated Key Figure.
2) From the context menu for the Formula Variable, choose New Variable.
3) Choose the Processing type as Replacement Path.
4) In the next screen, select the Characteristic Info Object based on which the number of documents is to be displayed in the report (For example: Document Number / Order Number).
5) Choose Next.
In the Replace Variable with drop down box, choose Attribute Value.
In the Attribute drop down, select Characteristic Reference (Constant 1).
6)Choose Next.
On the Save Variable page, an overview of the settings made for the variable will be displayed.
Confirm the entries and Choose Finish.
7) If the Formula variable is directly assigned to the Calculated Key Figure, a warning Calculated Key Figure is not defined correctly will be displayed while executing the Query.
8) Properties of Calculated Key Figure dialog box, assign a Technical name for the CKF.
9) set the Time of Calculation to After Aggregation.
Hope this will help you.
Cheers,
DK

Determine the number of records in a file

I want to analyse record types from a large input file and so far have managed to extract different groups and created the relevant files. All I want to do now is count the number of records in each file so I can produce a report showing the different types but cannot figure out how to do this, I know it will be simple but I cannot get any command to accomplish this, help please!

in applescript, there are a few ways to count patterned text. if (as jeffrey suggests) each record is a separate line, then you can use the following:
set textContents to read "/path/to/file.txt"
count of paragraphs of textContents
if records are determined by some other process (such as a special delimiting character or phrase) you can use text items (replace the @ sign with the special character or phrase):
set textContents to read "/path/to/file.txt"
set {oldTID, my text item delimiters} to {my text item delimiters, "@"}
set theCount to count of text items of textContents
set my text item delimiters to oldTID

Counting the number of detail records at target side...

Hi
I have a requirement where i need to caluclate the number of detail records formed and add it in trailer section...both at target side...
The output will look like this :
<Detail>
    <Field></Field>
</Detail>
<Detail>
    <Field></Field>
</Detail>
<Detail>
    <Field></Field>
</Detail>
<Trailer>
   <Count> 3 </Count>
</Trailer>
Basically, In trailer the Count field will contain the number of Detail records.
Can this be achived by a UDF?? Please help!!!

Actually teh detail node formation at target depends on a lot of nodes of source side...using Count I have already done it but due to lot of nodes @ source side it becomes kind of a mesh...
Hence I was trying to figure out a way in which if I can count the number of detail nodes at target side I can remove the present mapping...
Corect me if I am wrong but can't we declare this target detail node as global variable and then use 'Count' function to capture its occurence???
P.S : In XI 3.0 we used to have a tab to declare global variables but here in 7.1 we have Functions tab...could anybody tell me how to declare the variable in 7.1?

How to count the number of instances a record appears in a string

I have a move that imports Name, Department and Site from an
external CSV file, this part I managed to get working after many
weeks. I would like to be able to count the number of instances of
a specific Site “Glasgow” appears in the String. This
way I know how many lines to set.
Also can you add Dynamic text to a rollover button? I can get
the the text to display on the root but not on a button.
I am new to programming and Flash so apologies in
advance.

Those which took time to read carefully *_iWork Formulas and Functions User Guide_* are aware of the availability of wildcard characters.
=COUNTIFI(range;"=text")
will do the trick.

Hi,
length(REGEXP_REPLACE(':XXX:CCC:BBB:','[[:alnum:]]'))counts all kinds of punctuation, spaces, etc., not just colons. Change any (or all) of the colons to periods and it will still return 4. Use '[^:]' instead of '[[:alnum:]]' if you really want to count just colons.
Also, "SELECT ... FROM dual" is usually needed only in SQL*Plus or similar front end tools. In PL/SQL, you can call functions without a query, like this:
x := NVL (LENGTH (REGEXP_REPLACE (txt, '[^:]')), 0);

How to find the number of records per months in cube

Hi,
how to find the number of records per months for my all cubes?
Can i use the ListCube transaction to find totl number f records per cube monthwise ?
Jimmy

Hi,
Here is a program to generate no of records and list of ODS and Cubes in Active version.Schedule this program in background and create a cube to load this information and schedule to the data from the file generated by the program. Schedule this all per you requirement.
1.Copy the code into your Z<programname> from Se38.
2.change the FILENAME in CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' in the program to the location from where you can pick the information to load data to cube(eg Application server).
3.Save program.
4.Schedule the program in background as required
5.Create cube with infoobjects to hold no of records and Infoprovider name
6.Load this cube based on event after the program job is done.
Hence you can report on this cube to see no of records in CUBE or ODS in your box.
Please find the code below.

How to find the number of records in ods?

how to find the number of records in ods?
Pls suggest the solution apart going to the table of ods and seeing the number of records.
Is there any program or function module to see the number of records in ods?
For eg: SAP_INFOCUBE_DESIGNS is a program which gives the detail (number of records) of infocube.

Hi,
I was looking at this and found the following tables that may be of help.
One of these tables will include a summary of the record count of all the tables in your system based on the last time each table had it's database statistics calculated:
DBSTATTADA
DBSTATTDB2
DBSTATTDB4
DBSTATTDB6
DBSTATTINF
DBSTATTMSS
DBSTATTORA
We run on an Oracle database so the table record counts can be taken from DBSTATTORA. Type in AZ in table selection field in SE16 to restrict the output to ODS (or DSO) tables only.
The record count is at the time indicated in the timestamp field. Obviously this is not real time but should not be too out of date - if it is you may be having performance issues and should get your DBA / Basis to run a full refresh of DB stats.
Hope this helps, alhtough not real time the table should give you a decent indication of the size of all your ODS objects (or any other table for that matter!)

How to limit the number of records in WebI Report

Hi,
I have a requirement where I need to display the WebI Report data only if the number if record is less than 65k.
Incase if the records are more than 65k then the report should be blank and a text message needs to be displayed.
The client dont want to set the number of records either in universe or at the edit query at the report. They want to limit once the report is executed.
Please let me know if its possible to do it at the report level.
Thanks in advance!!
Best Regards
SAP BO

Optional prompts are not a problem.
Assuming you first query uses the following SQL statement
select a,b,c from t where x=y and z=@prompt(...)
The query for checking the number of rows should use the following SQL code
select count(*) from t where x=y and z=@prompt(...)
The original query should be modified as follows
select a,b,c from t where x=y and z=@prompt(...) AND (select count(*) from t where x=y and z=@prompt(...)) < 65000
