CR 8.5 - Why would inserting a group change the value of a detail field?

I have a report that has a field in the detail called Margin. The Margin field is calculated in my SQL query. I've checked and the data in SQL is still correct...
I used the Wizard to setup my basic report.
I just added the fields and that's about it. I didn't create the group in the wizard.
Everything looked good so I added a group.
My margin field looked good. (the numbers were in the range they should be)
I spent a good part of an hour formatting and testing.
Hadn't been watching the Margin field, and now I noticed that the numbers are way off.
They run in the range of positive numbers 5% to 60% (for example), now all of a sudden they are Negative and well into the 100s.
I have no Formulas at this time. I do have some I need to create, but haven't yet.
I have a group created. The group isn't on the Margin field....
I've refreshed the data and the numbers are still whacked out...
I just tried taking the Group out and the Margin numbers go back to normal.
What about the group is screwing up my Margin number?
What am I doing wrong???
Thanks
Kelvin

"1.Whether it happens only when you group on a certain field/formula etc."
Not 100% sure how to answer this, but I do know that I'm grouping on the field "PartGroup" in my Stored procedure.
"2.Whether the field is being used in a formula and its value is set conditionally."
I would say no.
I tried deleting the field Margin from the Detail section and in the Field Explorer there is no green check mark showing. (it's my understanding that if there's a green check mark it's being used somewhere)
I just tried deleting the Group and the numbers are still screwy
I had also Inserted Subtotals that look like this:
Sum of CIT_PT_SalesByPartsGroup;1.AmtCost
Sum of CIT_PT_SalesByPartsGroup;1.AmtPrice
I've since removed them and the numbers are still screwy
It seems like if I go far enough back (undo my work) the Margin field corrects itself.
Then I can redo the report back to almost finished and it screws up again....
I'd love to know what I'm doing to cause this.
Thanks for your time
Kelvin

Why would I want to change JPEG quality of photos when exporting them from iPhoto?

Why would I want to change JPEG quality of photos when exporting them from iPhoto? Changing the quality of the print changes the size of the saved file and thus impacts the speed at which it is moved on the internet. But other than size of the file, what is the advantage of changing the quality?

I have no idea why you would want to do anything
Some people want lower quality to reduce file size for different reasons
It is an option - if you do pot want to do that do not use that option

Why would I want to use the mail icon on my dock?

Hi all,
As I'm endeavoring to further my knowledge on the Mac, I'm curious as to know if I'm losing out on not using the mail icon on my dock.
Any particular reason I should use it? I currently use yahoo and gmail. I think they're considered IMAP technology and I can access it anywhere any anyhow as long as I have access to the web. I also use my iphone to access it.
So... why would I want to use the mail icon on my dock? Are the reasons going to be for the characteristics for POP? I.E, can off load mail to my Mac and read later without having live access to web?
BTW, if I did want to setup mail on the dock. What is the incoming and outgoing mail server for yahoo? Sorry, could locate that info. in yahoo mail.
Thanks in advance.

I think you are asking why you should use the Mail application versus using "web mail" through a web browser, and not just about the Mail icon on the Dock, is that correct?
You should use whatever is more convenient.
Mail is a standalone application designed for email access, so it is more responsive and has more features. Web-based apps are getting much better, but you can still tell you are in a web browser. You can work off-line, even if you use an IMAP service (such as MobileMe). You can save emails locally, even if most emails are on the server, and if it's POP, all your messages are downloaded to a local database (that may or may not be an advantage to you).
Mail is integrated with Address Book and iCal (and other Apple apps). You can use Time Machine to recover individual deleted emails, just like you would recover deleted files or folders (using the +flying through space+ interface).

Why did you have to change the layout of Firefox?

I would like to know why you have gone and changed the layout of Firefox?
I am still on Fx 3.6.18 because quite frankly 5.0.1 looks horrible.
Why did you have to change everything and move things around. Why couldn't you have given us the same layout as 3.6.18 but with these new upgrades.
I will never download Fx5. 3.6 was perfect.
Also how can I contact Fx without upgrading?

Sorry the old Feedback page - Hendrix - used with older versions of Firefox was disabled near the end of 2010.
In Firefox 4+ versions there's a Help > Submit Feedback... menu item which leads here: http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/feedback 
But you can't submit feedback there with an older version of Firefox, currently you need Firefox 5.0 or higher.
The decision to change the GUI was made by Mozilla collectively, not by a small group of developers or by one person. If you put your efforts toward customizing Firefox to suit your tastes, it would be a lot more productive than trying to find out who to blame and where to complain about the changes made to Firefox. Geez dude, it ain't the end of the world. It's only a web browser, which can be easily modified to make it look like you thing it should look.

Would you like to change the frame rate of the project to 30 to match to m

I just now moved some film clips from the Event Library to the Project Library and a white message window appeared saying: *MISMATCHED FRAME RATES. The frame rate of t his cli is 30 and the frame rate of the project is 25. Would you like to change the frame rate of the project to 30 to match the clip? And two radio buttons: Don't Change and Change.
First of all, the other day I set my Sanyo VPC-HD2000A to shoot film at 1280 x 72 at 30 fps SHQ. Now I just checked and it is set at the topmost red zone960 x 540 at 30fps. The only thing I can think of to explain this is that I selected it but did not "set" it.
Thus now I have a message asking what I noted above. Should I click CHANGE?
WHY IS THE FRAME RATE OF THE PROJECT SET AT 25? How did I do that? What did I do that caused me to have a project that is set at 25 fps?????
Time for another snack. 8-(
-L
A side issue is to find out why I set my Sanyo VPC-HD2000A at one rate (above) but now see that all the footage was shot at a different rate. Very very frustrating.

AppleMan,
It all began inside the settings of my Sanyo VPC-HD2000A when somehow the selection got switched from 1280 x 720 to that other setting with so-called 25fps. Also, I don't know whether the mishap occurred before or after I took my new footage.
I edited the clips last night and now they are on my blog and channel and they seem ok but slightly fuzzy.
I used a Sanyo VPC-HD2000A .7x wide angle lens with macro and I notice that when I zoomed in to the little sun conure, the picture blurred. I think that might be something that happens when one zooms the focus.
Also, I was born and raised to a teenager in Hawaii, but now Southern California has me in its grip.

Why Acrobat x professional is changing the text formatting specifically the font family and the font size of the text in my pdf on exporting it to Microsoft word file format ?How should i stop Acrobat x professional from doing that so that i get an exactly same word file on exporting it from its pdf counterpart?

I was testing the preciseness & efficiency of Adobe acrobat x professional's doc conversion capabilities. As i have to take a document editing project in future which is going to need lot of pdf to word and vice versa conversions . What I did was I created a test word document converted into a pdf using a pdf maker in my word 2007 , Acrobat did convert the document from word to pdf keeping everything in the source file intact , However when i tried the other way round and attempted to convert the same pdf to word 2007 file format I lost my formatting ?So the font that I used to create the pdf are the ones taken from word 2007 which i believe is using the fonts that are installed in my computer. Any suggestions on how to preserve the formatting of the document after converting it from pdf to word file format?
Regards
Mike

TS1702 i bought my phone from a friend who came from another country and would now like to change the phone to a system supported in my own south africa

i bought my phone from a friend who lived in china and would now like to change the phone to allow me to use the internet in south africa

If it is a genuine iPhone 4S (I know many people who have been duped by the cheap Chinese knock-off) then it should be unlocked for use with an SA SIM card. MTN and Vodacom both use the APN "internet", and you may find that if you are using a Vodacom SIM then the default APN is set as "iphone.vodacom.za". Change this by:
(iOS 6+) Going into Settings > Mobile Data > APN Settings and changing the APN to "internet".
(iOS 5<) Going into Settings > General > Network > Cellular Data Network and changing the APN to "internet".
I'm not sure what the APN is for Cell C, 8.ta and Virgin but I'm certain they are the same.
Hope this helps.

Would you happen to know the difference between these two fields from FI-GL

Hi,
Would you happen to know the differnce between these two field
i. UMSOL from 0fi gl6 and DMSOL from 0fi_ gl_4
ii. UMHAB from 0fi gl6 and DMHAB from 0fi_ gl_4
iii.In a test case on a system, where I was looking for the same values in comparison, I am getting inconsistent data.
which key figures in 0fi gl6 are equivalent to which in 0fi_ gl_4
Any hints
Thnx
Edited by: AmandaBaah on Jul 29, 2009 2:47 AM

Hi Amanda,
They are both very different datasources. 0FI_GL_6 is the General Ledger: Transaction Figures which fetched data from the GLT0 table while 0FI_GL_4 fetched data from the BSEG and BKPF tables and fetched the line items from the general ledger.
You can refer the following links for more info

Why would you use Group Discovery

Does Group discovery just get members (systems or users) from groups? If so, I can just do that on the actual system discovery or user discovery, there is a check box to discovery members of a group. So my question is, what is the point?

So the actual groups would be in the CM console? At that point I can create a collection of a group or groups and deploy to the machines in those groups?
The groups themselves would not be in the console but you would be able to deploy to members of a group by building a collection with query based memberships.
Query would look like this:
select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceType,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Name,
SMS_R_SYSTEM.SMSUniqueIdentifier,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Client
from SMS_R_System where SMS_R_System.SystemGroupName = “DomainName\\GroupName”
Collection will contain all systems member of the group.

Why would a movie disappear from the store?

Why would a movie that's been sold in the iTunes Store disappear from the store? It was a $14.99 movie too.

Thanks,
I suppose a mistake could have been made, but, other than that, it surely must be that a deal that would have kept it in the iTunes Store, somehow, wasn't done. That I haven't a clue about why is what's so frustrating.
I find it interesting, too, that there are movies not in iTunes which I would think would surely be there. For example, 25 movies are listed for Tom Cruise but "War of the Worlds" (the only one I want) isn't there. Another missing movie I like to see from time to time is "The Sound of Music" with Julie Andrews (again, the only Julie Andrews movie I want).

Why would my tabs be missing the favicon/mini-icon?

Since yesterday for some reason the tiny icon has disappeared from my tabs. That is the little icon that usually sits to the left of a tab's 'title'. I'm not sure why it's done this, I recently installed a script on Greasemonkey and another add-on but I didn't actually have any problems and the icon was still around even after using both add-ons.
The only thing I can think of is that late last night I happened to run a scan using iobit's Advanced System Care and that was when the icons disappeared. BUT! I've since restarted firefox many times since then and the icons are still missing with only two exceptions: 1) The Firefox logo that appears when you're on any mozilla page; 2) an icon that belongs on a fanfiction site; no other websites appear to be showing their icon and instead simply have as a square border of a dashed line. (I've included a screenshot below!)
Please, is there anyway to fix this?

You can check the value of the browser.chrome.* pref(s) on the about:config page to see if they still have the default value true.
*browser.chrome.favicons
*browser.chrome.site_icons
If either appears bold (i.e. user set) then double-click the line to toggle its value.

Why does my IN operator change the datatype

Hi
This doesn't make any sense, but i'm hoping there's an obvious answer which you guys have seen a million times before.
I have this criteria in my WHERE clause
AND rpg_id = (SELECT rpg_id
                                         FROM integration.rep_elig_groups
                                        WHERE pel_id IN(34))because of this clause no results are return in my query. However if i use a to_number function like this:
AND rpg_id = to_number(SELECT rpg_id
                                         FROM integration.rep_elig_groups
                                        WHERE pel_id IN(34))OR
AND to_char(rpg_id) = (SELECT rpg_id
                                         FROM integration.rep_elig_groups
                                        WHERE pel_id IN(34))i get the expected results returned.
The sub query:-
SELECT rpg_id
                                         FROM integration.rep_elig_groups
                                        WHERE pel_id IN(34)returns the value 226. rpg_id in this table is a NUMBER datatype. As is rpg_id in the original outer query.
I looked at synonyms, views, and other objects it might be using for the rep_elig_groups table, but there are none.
Then i tried changing the IN operator for an EQUALS operator and would you believe it, it worked.
AND rpg_id = (SELECT rpg_id
                                         FROM integration.rep_elig_groups
                                        WHERE pel_id IN(34))can someone please explain what ORACLE is thinking here!!!
Many thanks

Why and how is iTunes changing the genre?

Mac OSX 10.9.4
iTunes 11.3
I have many songs in my iTunes account. I have found that if I modify the genre to my liking, it doesn't stay that way. For some reason after a period of time it changes/reverts to another genre. Here is the funny part. If I click on the info button, the genre that I modified it to, is still listed, however when it is grouped...it is grouped into another genre.
To fix it, I have to go into each genre, find each song incorrectly categorized, hit info, and save (I don't even have to change anything)...and it goes back to where I wanted it.
Why is this? Since my categorization was saved, why and how does it get re-grouped? I thought that it changed whenever I had an update or closed iTunes, but this grouping changes at any given time.
It is getting tiresome having to resave everything.
How can I stop this from happening? If the goal is to allow me to customize the genres, why won't it stick?

Go to iTunes > Preferences > Store and turn off
Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases
Share details about your library with Apple
On any iOS device go to Settings > Music and turn off
Show All Music
Close and reopen iTunes and/or reset the device and you should see your version of the metadata for each track rather than the original store data.

How to change the values in custom profiles based on security group ??

Hi,
i am facing problem for my requirement, can anybody help me for below scenario...
i have custom check in profiles , there are content types and sub types. sub type nothing but a categories on for particular content type. For example i have News content type , same in the below subtypes drop down list are press release, events, articles etc.
what i want to do is, when i open custom checkin profile, subtype values need to be changed( some values in subtype should hide) based on security group changes .
In the Sub type listed values, some values need to hide only when i choose different security groups.. sub types values should display based on the particular security group only. when ever i change the security group, drop down Values in subtypes needs to change.
hope understand my requirement.
How to achieve this task. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Now what should i do ?? how to create DCL to subtype and security group ??
