Cross Column Calculation

Deal All,
Assalam-o-Alikum,
I have following table
MY_TABLE (c1 number(5), c2 number(5));
and the data inserted in this format
C1 C2
20
10
30
12
81
80
35
now I want to write the query that give the following result
C1 C2
--- ---- ------comments for understanding-- not required to show in QUERY
20 --remain same show 20
10 30 ----Previous value of c2 and current value of C1 column 10
30 900 -- Previous calculated value 30 * current value of C1 column 30
12 10800 ---Previous calculated value 900 * current value of C1 column 12
81 874800 --- Previous calculated value 10800 * current value of C1 column 81
80 69984000 --- Previous calculated value 874800 * current value of C1 column 80
35 2449440000 --- Previous calculated value 69984000 * current value of C1 column 35
Please Remember that I don't want to CREATE any Database Function to show the result. I want to solve it in SQL Query with help of Default Oracle Function or without default Oracle function its up to you.
Thanks

Extra column calculation

New user........
I am trying to make a third column calculation based on columns 'Uncommitted Stcok' and 'Committed Stock' but it is not working, can anyone help me understand this simple task?
SELECT Top 20 T0.Father AS 'Parent Code', T2.ItemName AS 'Parent Description', T0.Code AS 'Child Code', T1.ItemName AS 'Child Description', T0.Comment, T1.OnHand AS 'Uncommitted Stock', T1.IsCommited AS 'Committed Stock', T2.FrgnName AS 'Status'
FROM ITT1 T0 INNER JOIN OITM T1 ON T0.Code = T1.ItemCode INNER JOIN OITM T2 ON T0.Father = T2.ItemCode
ORDER BY T0.Father, T0.Code
Also, I will need to join OITW to this report but have no idea how to join a 3rd table..........
Thanks,
Robin

Hi Robin,
Welcome you to the forum.
You may try this:
SELECT Top 20 T0.Father AS 'Parent Code', T2.ItemName AS 'Parent Description', T0.Code AS 'Child Code', T1.ItemName AS 'Child Description', T0.Comment, T1.OnHand AS 'Uncommitted Stock', T1.IsCommited AS 'Committed Stock', T1.OnHand -T1.IsCommited AS 'Available', T2.FrgnName AS 'Status'
FROM ITT1 T0 INNER JOIN OITM T1 ON T0.Code = T1.ItemCode INNER JOIN OITM T2 ON T0.Father = T2.ItemCode
ORDER BY T0.Father, T0.Code
As for join OITW, you need to specify one warehouse. Is default warehouse for the item ok?
Thanks,
Gordon

I have inserted a column using calculated member. I want to Calculate in that column with BP opening balance
eg. OCRD.Balance-DocTotal when I do this it give first value to all column rows, i.e (consider XYZ opng Balance is 1500, I have calculate month opening balance which meance Current Opening Balance-Current month Order bookings=Month opening balance)
          IN(Invoice)             RC(Inc Pmt)      Total   Opng Balance

I want to calculate Opng Balance for each CardName but it gives first Customers opning balance to all customers.
Give me solution.
Thanks in Advance

Hi
I think you can do calculation based on the formula .On the cross tab ,there is :
X -selection - row
Y - selection -column
Z - summary
You can also use formula on cross tab to do that function and insert into summary section .
Hope this helps .

Column calculations getting wrong will exporting report to excel

Hi Experts,
we have a report on obiee 11.1.1.5.0 with following details
we have report with columns destination region,service , origin country and revenue
and report is created as follows
Destination Region
Asia NorthAmerica Total(using selection steps included both country)
June July June July June July
Origin
Country
India 25% 75% 50% 50% 37.5% 62.5%
China 96% 4% 96% 4% 96% 4%
Brazil 78% 22% 72% 28% 75% 25%
the logic i have used here is :- i have revenue and in pivot have applied SHOW DATA AS PERCENT OF LAYER(DESTINATION GEOGRAPHY)
till here everything is fine but when i export it to excel then i get this all values divided by 100 for eg:-
Destination Region
Asia NorthAmerica Total(using selection steps included both country)
June July June July June July
Origin
Country
India 0.25% 0.75% 0.50% 0.50% 0.375% 0.625%

Brazil 0.78% 0.22% 0.72% 0.28% 0.75% 0.25%
any suggestions how to get rid of this problem

Reuse column calculations

In my query I have a lot of columns that are a result of complicated calculations, some of the columns can be computed as a result of other columns.
My question is without creating a nested SQL can I refer to column alias so that I don't have to specify the same calculation twice.
Below is a simplified example of what I am trying to do where the column alias num2 and num21 are simplified examples of the calculations
I need to perform. The first query below works fine but I have to specify my calculation (num *2) twice.
select num * 2 num2, (num *2) + 1 num21 from
(select 2 num from dual)
I would like to somehow refer the num2 alias in my second column as shown below. (so that (num * 2) is speicified only once) But I get a SQL error saying the num2 idenitifer is not valid.
select num * 2 num2, num2 + 1 from
(select 2 num from dual)

Why do you think there's a performance hit?
The dual table is not referenced twice in your 2nd query - just because there is an outer query does not mean that the table is referenced more than once! Oracle is more than capable of rewriting the query. Did you even bother to check the explain plan of both queries?
SQL> select (2*2) num2, (2*2) + 1 from dual;
      NUM2    (2*2)+1

Line alignment cross columns and spacing issue

Hi All,
I am using CC to do article layout for a scholarly journal and have 3 questions:
1. I have a hard time to always align text lines across two columns on the same page. For body text, I use 9.5 point, automatic leading which is 11.4. I have different levels of subheadings which have different spacing (before and after paragraph) specification. they all use auto leading. Since htere are so many variables, what are the principles for getting main text lines aligned across columns, for example, what do I need to set fixed first, what next?
2. The 2nd question is if I have two levels of headings (each has space before and after) together, how to ask ID not to add too much space between the two headings?
3. Probably this is the same question as #2: For some paragraph which has both space before and after, if the next paragraph has the same style as the one in front it, no space is needed between the two. How to do this?
thank you very much in advance for your help!
Eric

"2. "Ask" ID? The spacing before and after a paragraph is defined in the style options. If you have, for example, first heading level 1, then heading level and want them to have less space, you could either decrease after spacing of level 1 or before spacing of level 2. If you have the other situation, with "level 1, then text" or "level 2, then text", you may adjust spacing on the text style only, so the text would always have the same spacing before itself, no matter if level 1 or level 2 is above. "
Thank you guys for replying. So you cannot specify in style to ask ID to automatically adjust space for situations like two different levels of headings together, and you have to do that manually?

Cross column radio group solution using dynamically generated HTML

I am tasked with creating a screen in Apex matching look and feel of an existing application screen; tabular form, multiple column radio buttons to update a single column value (radio group needs to be row oriented, across multiple columns). I could not find a way to use HTMLDB_ITEM.RADIO_GROUP () function for this due to the radio group being column based, great as a row selector but not for use across columns (each button being a column).
My first thought was to comprise and use checkboxes via HTMLDB_ITEM.CHECKBOX () for the multiple choices (in each column) and HTMLDB_ITEM.HIDDEN() to hold the chosen value, a JavaScript function for “onClick” event to make the checkboxes in one row act like radio buttons in a radio group. I created a simple application to show the concepts of my solutions …
SQL looks like this:
select pk_id, -- f01
object_to_color, -- f02
HTMLDB_ITEM.CHECKBOX(11, color_choice,
'onClick="chkboxAction('||pk_id||', document.wwv_flow.f11, ''RED'')"', 'RED') red,
HTMLDB_ITEM.CHECKBOX(12, color_choice,
'onClick="chkboxAction('||pk_id||', document.wwv_flow.f12, ''BLUE'')"', 'BLUE') blue,
HTMLDB_ITEM.CHECKBOX(13, color_choice,
'onClick="chkboxAction('||pk_id||', document.wwv_flow.f13, ''GREEN'')"', 'GREEN') green,
color_choice -- f03
from objects_to_color
Columns pk_id and color_choice are set as Show off and Display As Hidden. Note that my HTMLDB_ITEM.CHECKBOX items start with id number 11 (f11 – f13) so as not to conflict with the item id’s Apex will generate on it’s own. I could have used HTMLDB_ITEM functions to create all items and had my own PL/Sql update process.
This creates a tabular presentation with a column for each color choice as a checkbox, shown checked if that color is initially set.
The JavaScript function chkboxAction() clears the other checkboxes if a color is selected and stores the color in the hidden item db column for use in Apex Submit processing. Sorry the identation get's lost in the post!
function chkboxAction (id, ckbx, color) {
// f01 is pk_id (hidden)
// f11 is RED checkbox
// f12 is BLUE checkbox
// f13 is GREEN checkbox
// f03 db column color_choice for update (hidden)
var idx;
// Find row index using pk_id passed in as id argument.
for (var i=0; i < document.wwv_flow.f01.length; i++) {
if (document.wwv_flow.f01.value == id) {
idx = i;
i = document.wwv_flow.f01.length;
if (ckbx(idx).checked == true) {
// Set hidden color_choice column value to be used in update.
document.wwv_flow.f03(idx).value = color;
// Uncheck them all, then reset the one chosen.
document.wwv_flow.f11(idx).checked = false;
document.wwv_flow.f12(idx).checked = false;
document.wwv_flow.f13(idx).checked = false;
ckbx(idx).checked = true;
} else {
// Unchecked so clear color_choice column value to be used in update.
document.wwv_flow.f03(idx).value = '';
This works well and, as an aside, has an added feature that the color can be “unchosen” by unchecking a checked checkbox and leaving all checkboxes unchecked. This cannot be done with radio buttons unless a radio button is added as “no color”.
But what if radio buttons must be used, as in my situation? Here is another solution using custom code to dynamically generate radio buttons for a row based radio group rather than using HTMLDB_ITEM.RADIO_GROUP ().
select pk_id, -- f01
object_to_color, -- f02
'<input type="radio" name="rb'||pk_id||'" id="rb'||pk_id||'_1" value="RED" '||
decode(color_choice, 'RED', 'CHECKED', '')||
' onClick="rbAction('||pk_id||', ''RED'')">' red,
'<input type="radio" name="rb'||pk_id||'" id="rb'||pk_id||'_2" value="BLUE" '||
decode(color_choice, 'BLUE', 'CHECKED', '')||
' onClick="rbAction('||pk_id||', ''BLUE'')">' blue,
'<input type="radio" name="rb'||pk_id||'" id="rb'||pk_id||'_3" value="GREEN" '||
decode(color_choice, 'GREEN', 'CHECKED', '')||
' onClick="rbAction('||pk_id||', ''GREEN'')">' green,
color_choice -- f03
from objects_to_color
The pk_id column is used here to ensure a unique name and unique id for the items. In practice a custom api should be used to generate items in this way.
The JavaScript function is actually simpler for radio buttons because the radio group handles the mutually exclusive logic for choosing a color.
function rbAction (id, color) {
// f01 is pk_id (hidden)
// f03 db column color_choice for update (hidden)
var idx;
// Find row index using evaluation_question_id.
for (var i=0; i < document.wwv_flow.f01.length; i++) {
if (document.wwv_flow.f01.value == id) {
idx = i;
i = document.wwv_flow.f01.length;
// Set hidden result column referenced in update.
document.wwv_flow.f03(idx).value = color;
Now the problem is that on update, Apex will be confused by the custom items and try to post updated values to it’s own internal items – which don’t exist. The result is the very frustrating HTTP 404 - File not found error when apex/wwv_flow.accept executes on Submit. So, the trick is to clear the custom items prior to the update with a simple JavaScript function, then the values show again when the page is rerendered, if you are not branching from the page. The Submit button is changed to call the following function:
function submit () {
var items = document.getElementsByTagName("INPUT");
for (i=0; i< items.length; i++) {
if (items(i).type == "radio") {
if (items(i).checked == true)
items(i).checked = false;
doSubmit('SUBMIT');
This technique might have general use when using custom items. Comments or improvements on this?

Problem logical column calculation

Hi,
I've a logical table with 2 datasources DS1 and DS2 with this definition
DS1: Physical table TABLE_A, where condition: TABLE_A.A_YEAR = EXTRACT(YEAR FROM CURRENT_DATE)
DS2: Physical table TABLE_A, where condition: TABLE_A.A_YEAR = EXTRACT(YEAR FROM CURRENT_DATE) - 1
Columns:
Field1: DS1.VAL1
Field2: DS2.VAL1
Field3 CASE WHEN EXTRACT(MONTH FROM CURRENT_DATE) > 11 THEN DS1.VAL1 ELSE DS2.VAL1
Showing Field1 and Field2 in Answers is showing the correct value, but Field3 is always the value of DS1.VAL1.
Having a look in the properties of the field, there's written for "Data Type derives from physical sources:" the following:
"case when extract(month from DATE '2008-10-15') > 10 then sum(TABLE_A.VAL1) else sum(TABLE_A.VAL1) end"
So there's nothing shown that my returned columns have different logical data sources ...
What do I have to do to get the correct value.
Thanks
chrissy

Hi user649490,
this was only an example and so a typing error ...
Because the month is extracted in condition I have to do it for all month ...
Otherwise I shave found my error ... I copied datasource one and thought I unmapped all columns, mapped by first datasource. Having again a look into the column mapping I recognized, that the columns where double mapped by datasource 1 and 2. I changed this and it's working fine now ...
So sorry for bothering you with my stupidness :-)

How is liability relieved column calculated in Account Payables.

Hello all,
I am unable to find the exact definition of Liability relieved. How is it calculated in "Payables Posted Payment Register" report in Account payables module in oracle r12?. I know that its amount of the liability that is relieved after you have done a payment. But not sure, whether its payment amount in invoice exchange rate or its payment amount in payment's exchange rate.
Any help in this regard would be helpful.
Thanks,
Upendra

Upendra
It should be directly taking the conversion rate stored in the SLA. Can you take a look at one payment's accounting and see what the conversion rate and conversion date it used to store the entry the liability is relieved? Report should show the same.
Thanks

Optimisation of cross dimensional calculations

Hi,
Here's a script which should not take too long to run. However, this script runs for hours. Any suggestions would be great. I have added some more details about the dimensions involved.
Outline of the script:
/*Script Begins*/
SET UPDATECALC OFF;
SET CREATENONMISSINGBLK ON;
SET CACHE ALL;
SET CALCPARALLEL 5;
SET CALCTASKDIMS 2;
SET NOTICE LOW;
SET MSG SUMMARY;
FIX (@ATTRIBUTE("Existing"),@Relative("Location",0),@RELATIVE("Entity",0),&pln_scenario,"BU Budget",&plan1_yr,@RELATIVE("BOM",0), @RELATIVE("YearTotal",0))
"RMQ" = "location wise Sales Volume"->"UBOM" * "RMQ per Unit SKU"->"All locations"->"YearAgg";
ENDFIX;
ENDFIX;
/*Script Ends*/
UBOM is a member of BOM, "YearAgg" is a dummy member in period dimension and "all locations" is a dummy member in location dimension.
Dimension details: Evaluation Order which has been thought through.
Dimension Members Density
Account 352 Dense
Period 35 Dense
Version 3 Sparse
Scenario 8 Sparse
Location 7 Sparse
Year 9 Sparse
Entity 20 Sparse
Product 416 Sparse
BOM 938 Sparse

Are you sure that changing the cross-dimensional order of members makes a difference?
"location wise Sales Volume"->"UBOM" * "RMQ per Unit SKU"->"YearAgg"->"All locations";instead of
"location wise Sales Volume"->"UBOM" * "RMQ per Unit SKU"->"All locations"->"YearAgg"really improves how Essbase reads its index and page files?
It seems to me that Essbase is pointing to the same block, no matter the order of the dimension combinations.
The same goes for a FIX: I can't see how the dimension order within a single FIX statement is going to cause Essbase to touch blocks differently as it will be the same list of blocks (and cells) however it's combined.
Have you benchmarked the cross-dimensional member order? I'd be really interested to hear re any differences in performance.

Nested IF/AND/OR in Calculated Measure/Column

I have the following problem, which I couldn't quite solve in Excel and was wondering whether it can be done in PowerPivot (I failed so far):
A datasheet with a column "HOUR" and another column "AM/PM". Entries in the first column consist of 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11, or 12, the second column consists of 'AM's or 'PM's. Together they define the time of an incident (regarding the
below problem, note that I am not allowed to create a new column in the source datasheet or change existing columns). The below formulas 1.) to 3.) work excellent in Excel for getting '1's or '0's for incidents that happened either between 8AM and 4PM, or
outside of this time window, as long as I create a new column somewhere in the source datasheet.
1.) =IF(AND(A1>=8, A1<=11),IF(B1="AM",1,0),0) + IF(AND(A1>=1, A1<=4),IF(B1="PM",1,0),0) + IF(AND(A1=12),IF(B1="PM",1,0),0)
2.) =--OR(AND(A1>=8, B1="AM", A1<>12), AND(OR(A1<=4, A1=12), B1="PM"))
3.) =--OR(AND(OR(A1={8,9,10,11}),B1="AM"), AND(OR(A1={1,2,3,4,12}), B1="PM"))
However, I wanted the "1"s to be summarized - without creating an extra column - as calculated field in a pivot table in Excel. As it turned out, the calculated field option in Excel's standard Pivot table doesn't allow such complex formulas.
Someone then told me to try PowerPivot. However, the calculated column/calculated measure option in the PowerPivot sheet (once I loaded my data) doesn't seem to support the above formulas either.
The column headers have the same names as I described above. However, some symbols were not accepted so the relevant ones read now: "[HOUR]", "[AM PM]".
I tried:
=IF(AND([HOUR]>=8, [HOUR]<=11),IF([AM PM]="AM",1,0),0) + IF(AND([HOUR]>=1, [HOUR]<=4),IF([AM PM]="PM",1,0),0) + IF(AND([HOUR]=12),IF([AM PM]="PM",1,0),0)
Error: "Too few arguments were passed to the AND function. The minimum argument count for the function is 2."
=OR(AND([HOUR]>=8,[AM PM]="AM",[HOUR]<>12), AND(OR([HOUR]<=4,[HOUR]=12),[AM PM]="PM"))
Error: "Too many arguments were passed to the AND function. The maximum argument count for the function is 2."
Does anybody know how to translate any of the above formulas into one PowerPivot accepts? or, alternatively, any other way how to achieve the desired results? Thank you for any help on this.

Hi Natrajx,
The first of your formulas can be translated into the follow DAX syntax that can be used to define a Calculated Column:
IF(
table1[HOUR] >= 8 && table1[HOUR] <= 11,
IF(
[AM PM] = "AM",
1,
0
0
+
IF(
table1[HOUR] >= 1 && table1[HOUR] <= 4,
IF(
[AM PM] = "PM",
1,
0
0
+
IF(
table1[HOUR] = 12,
IF(
[AM PM] = "PM",
1,
0
0
You could also created a Calculated Field based on similar logic using the following formula:
SUMX(
'Table1',IF(
table1[HOUR] >= 8 && table1[HOUR] <= 11,
IF(
[AM PM] = "AM",
1,
0
0
+
IF(
table1[HOUR] >= 1 && table1[HOUR] <= 4,
IF(
[AM PM] = "PM",
1,
0
0
+
IF(
table1[HOUR] = 12,
IF(
[AM PM] = "PM",
1,
0
0
Note the use of "&&" instead of the AND() function. In DAX, the AND() and OR() functions only support a maximum of 2 arguments. You can use "&&" for the AND operation and "||" for the OR operation. Hopefully
the DAX examples above will help you to see how it can be applied to your scenario.

Calculating YTD column in OBIEE 11g

Hi ,
Here is my requirement :
I have to create a report , which shows several measure values (revenue , gross mergin etc as rows of a pivot table) against a certain period (Months , i.e. Jan , Feb ....etc as columns of a pivot table ) . Taking period prompt as presentation variable prompt . For example , If 'Jan' is selected from period dropdown list ,then only Jan values are shown . I am able to do upto this part .
Next , I have to add one YTD column (calculated ) , which will eventually sum the values of upto selected period value , i.e if selected month is 'Mar' then March values will be shown in one column and 'Jan + Feb + Mar ' values will shown in another .
How to achive this ?
FYI , I am taking essbase 11.1.2.0 as datasource and using OBIEE 11.1.1.5.0 version .
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
by using time series Ago function method and also by suing obiee-date-expression method you can solve it.

Store the result of the column in variable in answer

Hi All,
Is there a way to store the value of the result of the column of the report and use that value in calculation in another report. I need to get the grandtotal value which changed according to the prompt and want to use that grand total value to calculate new column in another report. Can we use presentation variable? I want to store the total value 30 and then calculate the region percentage. I am not able to store the total value and create the new column calculation using the total value.
Region 1 10 *0.33*
Region 2 20 *0.67*
Total 30
Thanks,
Virat

You can use this Report as a Subreport in the Final Report,and apply a filter the column=subreport.columnvalue.

Cross Conditional format in Pivot Table

Hi Guys
I have an important client requirement where by I need to present the data in teh following format
CAMBODIA LAOS SRI LANKA
KPI_NAME PROPOSED_TARGET_VALUE MIN_TARGET_VALUE Aug-09 Sep-09 Oct-09 Aug-09 Sep-09 Oct-09 Aug-09 Sep-09 Oct-09
SERVICES PROVISIONING CALL RATE (%) <5% <5% 21.00% 68.00% 10.80% 1.300% 0.100% 1200.% 2.500% 5.000% 66.50%
The table is like that :
     Measure     Indicator
13     38     White
17     1016     Red Green
15     3456     White
19     8644     Grey
12     41605.886     White
10     52647.007     White
This is possible only through pivot table whereby country and period dimesions have been put in pivot.
Also there is a requirement to paint the background colour in Red Amber Green ... and for that I ahve to create a new column where after comparing i can put the status as Red ..Amber ..Green and based on the cross column conditional formating I can paint the fact value like 21.00% (shown above) .
But when I am importing that table in pivot view all the backgrounf colour vanishes. since cross column conditional formating is not supported in pivot.
Is there any way out to achieve this requirement .
Thanks
