Creating Search prompt to display a particular record row

Hi,
I have a crystal report with an Excel sheet as my data source.
I want to create a prompt which would ask for a certain value (say, "name") and when we enter a name (say "John") ; it will display the record row(age, income, savings, etc..) for the Name "John". (if multiple "john"s exist; it will display all the records with name- "John").
Basically, i want to create a "search" function.
Can you please help me understand how to create one like this. I am new to Crystal report. I have tried using Parameters but not able to make it happen.!
Thanks,
Aditi

Hi Aditi,
Please follow these steps:
1) Create a string parameter. You may choose to create a dynamic/static parameter. In the parameter creation screen, you can also choose to select the 'value' field and you can select the Name field from the database here. This will give a list of Names when the report is run. Skip this if you do not want it this way, that is, if you wish to manually type in the value
2) Go to the Record Selection Formula (Report > Selection Formulas > Record) and use this formula:
= {?Parameter_Name}
Place the fields you want on the details section and the run the report.
Hope this helps!

Hi,
The Lower level ODS (ZGSD_O01) has the key fields Document Number and Document Item.
The value for GI_STS will be C for each item when it is PGI'd (Actual Goods Issue Date) and will be in other status (A or B) until it is PGI'd.(that means the order is not complete).
The data on the ODS will be:
Goods Issue Status Last Actual Goods Issue Date of an Order Shipping point Sales document Fiscal year variant Sales document item Tolerance Limit for Under Delivery in % Net price Quantity Confirmed as Requested Desired Delivery Quantity

I need a logic to look in to the entire order items at lower ODS and then populate this 1 record in top ODS with the inclusion of status fields. If all the values of GI_STS are C, then a record should be populated with last item's AGI data and this. If not, a record should populated with the GI_STS either A or B.
Can any one help me in witing a routine in the update rules of 2nd level ODS.
here is the base code at present in the update rules.

1) Copy this script to the code
<script type="text/javascript">
function displayVacationDates() {
    for (var i=0; i < document.forms[0].Status.length; i++) {
        if (document.forms[0].Status[i].checked && document.forms[0].Status[i].value=='Vacation'){
          document.getElementById('startDateRow').style.visibility='visible';
          document.getElementById('endDateRow').style.visibility='visible';
         if (document.forms[0].Status[i].checked && !(document.forms[0].Status[i].value=='Vacation')){
         document.getElementById('startDateRow').style.visibility='hidden';
          document.getElementById('endDateRow').style.visibility='hidden';
</script>
2) Set initial style to 'hidden'
<tr id="startDateRow" style="visibility:hidden">
<td align="left"><blockquote>
<p><span class="style16 style8"><strong>Start date:
</strong></span></p>
</blockquote>                 </td>

</blockquote>                      </td>
<td align="left"><script>DateInput('VacEnd', true, 'DD-MON-YYYY')</script></td>
</tr>
3) Call the display script
<input name="Status" type="radio" value="In the Field" onclick="displayVacationDates()">
<input name="Status" type="radio" value="Vacation" onclick="displayVacationDates()">
<input name="Status" type="radio" value="Sick day" onclick="displayVacationDates()">

Search First, then Display "Found" Records in list "After" searching

Does anyone know how to force my ADDT List to just initially display the Search boxes only (see image above), and not bring up any records at all?
- I'm using the List Page and Filter Boxes as a "Global Search" of the database
- I only want the page to load with everything except the actual data
- Then when I type something into a filter box, I want the query to run & display the results below. (Like a google search page)
My list page works as-is, set to display only 10 records, with the Filter boxes set to display by default.. but since the query is running to display the recordset,
there is a delay before the page loads.. I would like to stop the initial query from running/displaying and only run "after" I have typed in a value, and hit the "Filter" button.
Thanks,
jlig

Gunter, Referring to your suggestion before, it looks like it hides the records display,..
Will this still cause the page to load slow (since the query still is running in the background) even though the records are not displayed?
Do you know, does the List code call the query before or after it displays the list?
</cfquery>
<cfif true eq true>
<cfquery name="rstickets1" datasource="Ctickets" username="#Request.KT_db_username#" password="#Request.KT_db_password#">
SELECT tickets.acctNum, tickets.firstName, tickets.lastName, tickets.businessName, tickets.city, tickets.circuitID, tickets.ticketDetails, tickets.ticketDate, tickets.ticketNum FROM tickets WHERE #PreserveSingleQuotes(SESSION.filter_tfi_listtickets1)# ORDER BY #PreserveSingleQuotes(SESSION.sorter_tso_listtickets1)#
</cfquery>
<cfset QueryString_rstickets1=Iif(CGI.QUERY_STRING NEQ "",DE("&"&CGI.QUERY_STRING),DE(""))>
</cfif>
<cfset MaxRows_rstickets1=SESSION.max_rows_nav_listtickets1>
<cfset StartRow_rstickets1=Min((PageNum_rstickets1-1)*MaxRows_rstickets1+1,Max(rstickets1.Record Count,1))>
<cfset EndRow_rstickets1=Min(StartRow_rstickets1+MaxRows_rstickets1-1,rstickets1.RecordCount)>
<cfset TotalPages_rstickets1=Ceiling(rstickets1.RecordCount/MaxRows_rstickets1)>
<cfset tempPos=ListContainsNoCase(QueryString_rstickets1,"PageNum_rstickets1=","&")>
<cfif tempPos NEQ 0>
<cfset QueryString_rstickets1=ListDeleteAt(QueryString_rstickets1,tempPos,"&")>
</cfif>
Thanks again,

Hi,
the BDCDATA structure must be fnam, fval,dynbegin,dynpro,program.
You have to declare like this and pass this in your CALL TRANSACTION statement.

I would like to create a multipurpose graph display - how?

Hi all, I would like to create a simple VI, it has multiple sets of information and signal inputs (Signal generators or DAQmx cards), and whilst all the information is important, i don't need to see them all at the same time. instead I would like to create an oscilloscope-like display (one large graphical display), and boolean buttons that allow me to select which signals I want to display on the screen (graph).
So there two options, 1 boolean button to show only that waveform, and other boolean button to toggle on/off the waveform on the screen (means I can either show one dedicated waveform or show all the waveforms at the same time) this will allow me to compare the waveforms or just to focus on one particular waveform.
I was thinking of a case-structure to turn on/off the waveform for display on the graph, but how do i do that?
Help will be really appreciated!

Hi MKFX,
two notes:
1) How to change the visibility of plots is a more common question one may think - so do a little search on the forum...
2) LV2011 allows to set visibility of plots right from the plot legend, you don't need additional boolean buttons for that purpose...

Display top 5 records

Hi Friends,
i've a prompt in my dashbord, based on the prompt the report values will display right,
my requirement is that i want display only top 5 records,
how will you do that

Hi
Create a prompt with a column and assign presentation variable in it.
In report for measure give the function as topN in edit formula.The syntax is shown as
TOPN(expr, integer)
If u want top 5 then TOPN(Measure Column,5) give filter to this column with presenntation variable
We can do it with 'rank' function also like this
Rank(Measure column)
Otherwise,Use TopN filter in the report.But it shows 5records statically.For this there is no need of prompt.
Thanks

How do i search a textfile for a particular value?

How do i search a textfile for a particular value?
I have made the records etc, six fields per record, i would like to find a value which is typed into the search textbox, find the record in the textfile and display the record in the boxes used to enter the data.
SO HOW WOULD I SEARCH A TEXTFILE?
Thanks very much for your help, Antony (UK)...

If it were me, I'd use Lucene. Each line could be a separate document, and each field would be a field in Lucene. That would provide you one of the fastest and most flexible ways to do what you want.
Or did you mean you want someone to complete your homework assignment? :-)

Some doubts about automatically created search feature

Hi everybody,
if I create a report page apex provides me a basic search feature (a single textbox the user can use to search in various fields).
The code automatically created is (in apex 2.1.x) something like:
SELECT ...field lists...
FROM tablename
WHERE
instr(upper("FIRST_NAME"),upper(nvl(:P1_REPORT_SEARCH,"FIRST_NAME"))) > 0 or
instr(upper("LAST_NAME"),upper(nvl(:P1_REPORT_SEARCH,"LAST_NAME"))) > 0 or
instr(upper("CITY"),upper(nvl(:P1_REPORT_SEARCH,"CITY"))) > 0 or
...and so on, one statement for each field we want to search for.
I don't understand
1) why apex uses instr instead of a standard LIKE '%..%'..the choice depends on performance issues?
2) instead of using the nvl "trick" IMHO should be enough:
:P1_REPORT_SEARCH IS NULL OR
instr(upper("FIRST_NAME"),upper(:P1_REPORT_SEARCH,"FIRST_NAME")) > 0 or
instr(upper("LAST_NAME"),upper(:P1_REPORT_SEARCH,"LAST_NAME")) > 0 or
instr(upper("CITY"),upper(:P1_REPORT_SEARCH,"CITY")) > 0 or
which is clearer and maybe faster; am I right?
3) the nvl "trick" doesn't work for empty fields: if a record has null values for all the fields you search for in the query that record won't be displayed in the report even if the user leave the search box blank and click on "go"...this seems to me a bug, has it been resolved in the last release of APEX?
4) Last question: this is not actually related to "basic" search...if I need to verify is a search field (imagine an advanced search form) is left blank I can just use ":FIELD_NAME IS NULL"...this work for textboxes but doesn't work for listboxes, which needs something like ":FIELD_NAME = '%null%'" because %null% seems to be the value returned by those kind of fields when left blank...am I right? Which is the meaning of %null%?
Thank you very much and sorry for the long post.
Ciao.
Eugenio

Hi Eugenio,
Firstly, you are welcome to alter the generated query however you wish. If you don't like what is created by APEX, change it to suit your purposes.
To answer your questions:
1. It's easier for customers to understand INSTR than LIKE. With LIKE, you have to be careful to include the wildcard characters. Performance should be roughly equivalent.
2. The NVL is necessary. If it were not, then if no search criteria was specified, then no rows would ever be returned. Try your suggested SQL out yourself.
3. You're correct - this won't work if you have null values for all fields. That's not a bug in APEX, though. I don't know too many application requirements where you would want to maintain null values for all fields. Do you?
4. You are correct. For List Manager and other items which use a List of Values, if you don't specify a string to use for NULL, then '%null%' will be used. You can override this in the LOV settings for the item, but keep in mind - you have to specify something, otherwise, '%null%' will be used. Patrick Wolf posted a nice, generic solution to this: Re: Null value handling in LOVs
I hope this helps.

Enable or disable particular record in list item based on a corresponding c

Hi,
How can i Enable or disable property of particular record in list item (multi record) based on a corresponding check box(multi record) ,
e.g Form Structure:
if press a button then record should populate where multi_post_query
if my_check_box = 1 then
my_list_item disable to update;
else
my_list_item enable to update;
end if;
now wanted result is like below
my_check_box ---- my_list_item
+----------------------enable
+----------------------enable
+----------------------enable
_----------------------Disable
_----------------------Disable
Here "+" means checked,"_" means unchecked and "enable" means updatable "Disable" means not updatable
the pseudo code is like,
if my_check_box = 1 then
my_list_item enable to update;
else
my_list_item disable to update;
end if;
Note: my_check_box is not updatable
please tell me which trigger and where I should create
Thanks

Hi Abdetu,
I created WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE Trigger at data block level
And I need should work like below pseudo code (sorry for previous pseudo code)
if my_check_box = 1 then
my_list_item disable to update;
else
my_list_item enable to update;
end if;
so change code as
IF :MULTI.PROTECTED_FIELD = 1 THEN
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY ('MULTI.ACTION',REQUIRED , PROPERTY_FALSE );
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('MULTI.ACTION',NAVIGABLE,PROPERTY_FALSE);
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY ('MULTI.ACTION' ,UPDATE_ALLOWED,PROPERTY_FALSE);
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY ('MULTI.ACTION' ,INSERT_ALLOWED,PROPERTY_FALSE);
:multi.action := 0;
ELSE
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY ('MULTI.ACTION',REQUIRED , PROPERTY_TRUE);
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('MULTI.ACTION',NAVIGABLE,PROPERTY_TRUE);
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY ('MULTI.ACTION' ,UPDATE_ALLOWED,PROPERTY_TRUE);
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY ('MULTI.ACTION' ,INSERT_ALLOWED,PROPERTY_TRUE);
END IF;
Sorry, still I am not getting desired o/p. even i check item (ACTION) level Trigger
Note: my_check_box is not updatable
that would assign at time of button press (post query) as i mentioned

Hi Brian,
OAF supports the master-detail based design. You can very well implement your model. You can use 2 VO for your 2 objects and link them using a ViewLink. Check OAF Dev guide for more details.

How to find the particular record in 1000's of workflow jobs are running

Hi,
In a data manager -> in workflow tab>IF a record is in CHECK-OUT MODE there are 1000's of jobs are running in that workflow tab. Can anyone tell me how to find that particular record in that workflow jobs.
Can anyone show me the difference in getting a record in 5.5 and 7.1

Hello COTI
Unfortunatly, SAP MDM doesn't have good ability for WF search.
All WF clarify by it's status (unlaunched, avialable, Received, complited, error etc.)
For each WF SAP MDM assing unique Job ID and this id will be shown in Job ID field in Data Manager WF Tab.
You can change WF list order by all WF fields like as Job ID, Step, User, Start etc. and try to find your's WF.
You can use Java API - this is one of the best solution for WF management and WF mass upload (for example)

How to display the NULL records by multiple XMLTABLE()

First, let me provide the testing data of INSERT and CREATE TABLE sql:
create table xml_t2 (xml_raw XMLTYPE);insert sql, a bit long.....just copy and paste then run it will be OK!
the system warns: Your message exceeds the maximum length of 30000 characters.
So, I place it on the mediafire shariing space
http://www.mediafire.com/?npmot6lgl86dgliTesting SQL:
SELECT t1.years, t1.months,t1.days,t1.hours,t1.value,t2.value
        FROM xml_t2,
        XMLTABLE ('$d/cdata/F1' passing xml_raw as "d" COLUMNS years integer path '//year', months varchar(3) path '//month', days varchar(2) path '//day', hours varchar(2) path '//hour', mins varchar(2) path '//minute', value float path '//value') t1 ,
        XMLTABLE ('$d/cdata/F2' passing xml_raw as "d" COLUMNS years integer path '//year', months varchar(3) path '//month', days varchar(2) path '//day', hours varchar(2) path '//hour', mins varchar(2) path '//minute', value float path '//value') t2The condition for now is....In the xml data, I have deleted the month 'Jan' with <F2>tag which is in 2010.
That mean the output of XMLTABLE t2 will not contain the 'Jan' records but it is still remain in XMLTABLE t1.
The problem is that when I use the above SQL to show the t1.value, it will not display the t1.value in 2010 Jan.....it just skipped 'Jan' and becomes 'Feb'...
what i would prefer to display is something like this:
YEARS MONTHS DAYS HOURS t1_value t2_value
2009     Jan    01   01       8       8
2009     Jan    01   02       8     580
2009     Jan    02   01     580     580
2009     Jan    02   02     580     580
2009     Feb    01   01     440     440
2010     Jan    01   01     627     NULL
2010     Jan    01   02     627     NULL
2010     Jan    02   01     367     NULL
2010     Jan    02   02     367     NULL
2010     Feb    01   01     367     849
2010     Feb    01   02     849     849
..............So...the main problem is how to display back the record in JAN in 2010 in t1 XMLTABLE and assign null to the t2 XMLTABLE since it doen't contains this months record.
THANKS for help!!

Hi,
What's your database version?
Are you using binary XML storage? (This is the default in 11.2.0.2)
If not you have to explicitely specify it :
create table xml_t2 (xml_raw XMLTYPE)
xmltype column xml_raw store as securefile binary xml;Along with object-relational, it's the best storage strategy to use in conjunction with XMLIndex.
You should also use a structured XML index instead, it's more appropriate than the unstructured index you're currently using :
create index xml_t2_sxi on xml_t2 (xml_raw)
indextype is xdb.xmlindex
parameters (q'#
XMLTABLE xml_t2_xt '/cdata'
COLUMNS
YEARS INTEGER    PATH 'F1/name/year',
MONTHS VARCHAR(3) PATH 'F1/name/month',
DAYS   VARCHAR(2) PATH 'F1/name/day',
HOURS VARCHAR(2) PATH 'F1/name/hour',
MINS   VARCHAR(2) PATH 'F1/name/minute',
VALUE FLOAT      PATH 'F1/name/value',
VALUE2 FLOAT      PATH 'F2/name/value'
call dbms_stats.gather_table_stats(user, 'XML_T2');Use the query provided by Stew and check the explain plan, you'll see the difference.

Search for users in a particular LDAP through Web Dynpro code...

Hi Experts,
Let me try explaining my problem. In my project we are using two ADAM LDAPs. One for storing internal users and the other for storing external users. I have configured the portal to connect to both the LDAPs. I am able to search for the users created in both the LDAPs through portal Indentity Management.
I am trying to search for the users in a specific LDAP through Web Dynpro coding... I am not lucky enough to get it done. Let me explain you what I did.
I created a custom attribute for UME through config tool. Gave a physical mapping for the custom attribute in dataSourceConfig_xxx.xml to the LDAP attribute distinguishedName which returns the distinguished Name for the user in ADAM LDAP.
For Example: Custom attribute in UME is ldapuser which is mapped to distinguishedName attribute in ADAM LDAP in dataSourceConfig_xxx.xml.
When I do a search for the users in a particular LDAP, I am trying to put a filter to the newly created ldapuser attribute to distinguish between the two LDAPs.
The search will result if I pass the value as '*'. If I try to specify the user path for the LDAP in this attribute it doesnt result any data.
For example:
userSearchFilter.setSearchAttribute(
     "com.sap.com.cust.admn",
      "ldapuser",
     "OU=16482515,OU=Members",
     ISearchAttribute.LIKE_OPERATOR,
     false);
The above code will not return the data, whereas
userSearchFilter.setSearchAttribute(
     "com.sap.com.cust.admn",
      "ldapuser",
     ISearchAttribute.LIKE_OPERATOR,
     false);
Will result with user list from both the LDAPs.
If anyone tried searching for users in a particular LDAP through code, please help me with this issue.
Thank you in advance.

Rekha Malavathu

I just figured it out. Under "group-policy GroupPolicy_COMPANY_SSL_VPN attributes", I had to add "vpn-simultaneous-logins 15". Apparently, it was using the value "vpn-simultaneous-logins 0" under the NOACCESS group policy.
