Data between Date Range with Business Days only

Hi All,
We have a requirement that we need to retrieve data between a data range, providing From date and To date as input.
We also have the option to Include Business Days Only through a check box which will be passed to CR 2008 through a report frame work.
Can some one help me how to display the report data within the Date Range entered and that includes only Business Days.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Regards,
Naresh.

try this formula. Lets if your date range parameter is {?date} then try this formula
@startdate:
if datepart('w',minimum({?date}))=7 then
minimum({?date})+2
else if datepart('w',minimum({?date}))=1 then
minimum({?date})+1
else
minimum({?date})
@enddate
if datepart('w',maximum({?date}))=7 then
maximum({?date})+2
else if datepart('w',maximum({?date}))=1 then
maximum({?date})+1
else
maximum({?date})

Data should be processed with one package only

Hello,
I need to load data from ods1 to ods2.
The logic if the transformation requires that data should be processed with one package only. Otherwise the result will be misleading.
I can increase the package size up to 1 mln but its not the best solution as actual numbers of records is unknown.
What would you recommend?
thanks

Hi,
We had a similar requirement for one of the projects, where data for the same key from base DSO were required in the same DP.
We worked it out in the End routine, where during the load we sort the data package for the same key combination and delete adjacent duplicates. then we lookup in the active table of the base DSO(ODS1 in your case) to get corresponding records for the same Key combination. Carry out the computaton and then populate the data package again..
Similar Sample Code in 3.5 update rule routine:
SORT DATA_PACKAGE[] BY material
                       /bic/zcdpcntry .
DELETE DATA_PACKAGE[] WHERE material       IS INITIAL OR
                              /bic/zcdpcntry IS INITIAL .
CHECK DATA_PACKAGE[] IS NOT INITIAL.
DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM DATA_PACKAGE[]
                        COMPARING material
                                  /bic/zcdpcntry.
lit_dp[] = DATA_PACKAGE[] .
REFRESH DATA_PACKAGE[] .
SELECT material
         datefrom
    FROM /bic/azmd_o***00
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE lit_cc
    FOR ALL ENTRIES IN lit_dp
WHERE material = lit_dp-material AND
        /bic/zcdpcntry = lit_dp-/bic/zcdpcntry.
***Processing KLogic..****
Assigning to the datapackage.
    DATA_PACKAGE[] =   lit_dp[] .
Hope this Helps..

Is there a function to derive "business days" only

Is there either an Oracle SQL built-in function or user-defined function for calculating the difference
between two dates or between SYSDATE and a date in the database, which uses business days
only (at least excluding weekends)?
I'd appreciate any help on this!
Thanks!

Get Business days ONLY excluding Thanks giving / Christmas etc

I know how to exclude Saturday and Sunday to get weekdays only but how to get business days only excluding thanks giving/ Christmas/memorial day etc (based on the locale or some other setting) ?
(If it is country- INDIA - the list of official government holidays changes, so the query should work properly depending on the country or some other setting.)

Hello userPrasad.
Business or working days can not only be affected regionally but also by the nature of the industry that the system is used for; not to mention that change can occur. The few systems that I've worked with have typically provided a user-maintained listing of dates to be considered as business/working days. Obviously, this would contain more data than the system and your coding would actually require, but this is normally the most straightforward presentation to the business user.
Make it simple
Make it obvious
Make it usable
Make it flexible
Some food for thought,

Display all dates between date range (Time Dimension left outer join Fact)

All,
I have done some searching around this issue but within all the posts regarding date variables, date prompts and date filtering I haven't seen one exactly answering my issue (maybe they are and I just dont have my head around it correctly yet).
My report requirement is to allow a user to select a start day and an end day. The report should show all activity between those two days - AND display 0/null on days where there is no activity. That second part is where I am getting hung up.
The tables in question are:
TimeDim
EventFact
CustomerDim
My BMM is setup as follows:
TimeDim left outer join EventFact
CustomerDim inner join EventFact
If I run a report selecting DAY from TimeDim and a measure1 from EventFact with day range 1/1/2010 - 12/31/2010 .. I get a record for every day and it looks perfect because of the left outer join between TimeDim and CustomerDim.
But .. if I add in a field from CustomerDim, select TimeDim.DAY, CustomerDim.CUSTNAME, EventFact.MEASURE1, OBIEE only returns records for the days that have EventFact records.
This is due to the fact that the TimeDim is still outer joined into EventFact but adding in CustomerDim makes OBIEE setup an inner join between those tables which then causes only data to be returned where EventFact data exists.
There is a way around this in this simple case and that is to define the relationship between CustomerDim and EventFact as an outer join as well. This will give the desired effect (but an outer join between these two tables is not the true relationship) and as I add additional dimensions and add additional logical sources to a single dimension in the BMM it gets complicated and messy.
Ive also messed with setting the driving table in the relationship, etc.. but it has not given the desired effect.
Has anyone ever encountered the need to force display all dates within a specfied range with a fact table that may not have an entry for every date?
Thanks in advance.

It worked!!!* Even my time drill downs and date based filtering still work!
That is awesome. Never would have thought of that intuitively.
Now, just need a little help understanding how it works. When I run my report and check the logs I can see that two queries are issued:
Query 1: Joins the fact table to all the associated dimensions. I even changed all the relationships to inner joins (which is what they truly are). And calculates the original measure. If I copy and paste this query into sql developer it runs fine but only returns those rows that joined to the time dimension - which is what was happening before. It is correct but I wanted a record for every time dimension record.
Query 2: Looks like the following:
select sum(0)
from timedim
where date between <dateprompt1> and <dateprompt2>
group by month *<--* this is the time dimension level specified in Query 1, so it knows to aggregate to the month level as was done in query 1
Final Question: So what is OBIEE doing ultimately, does it issue these two requests and then perform a full outer join or something to bring them together? I couldn't see anywhere in the log a complete query that I could just run to see a similar result that I was getting in Answers.
Thanks for all the help .. Id give more points if I could.

How to set execution time of the step with business days in the workflow

As we know, we can set how many days later the step should be execuated after previous step. now, the problem is how to set the business days (days except sunday and sataurday) for it. any one has good solution on it.

Hi Nick,
In order to find the Next working day you need to check for the Factory calendar days for eg, if a workitem has invoked today and if the Approver doesn't release the workitme for which u want to send a mail/reminder to the approver after say next 5or 6 working days, you need to create a function module.
For eg: In case of Purchase order, if the approver doesn't release the PO .
Create a Method saying "Next working day" , in which you will be passing the import parameters : PO, Factory calendar day and the sy-datum
and export parameter : date.
Create Input date and No of days as container elements of the Task and in the method create a Function module
In case of PO, consider the Factory calendar key from the T001W by joining the table EKPO there by passing the PO.
then pass the date, No of days(say 5 days) and the Factory calendar key to the "WDKAL_DATE_ADD_FKDAYS" , you will get the next working day of the employee.
Don't forget to check the Binding properly.
Do implement this logic and check the same.

How to transfer data between spreadsheets without using Business Objects?

Hello, every time I try and log onto the business objects platform I keep getting "this system can be contacted but there is no central management server running at port 6400". All I need to do is pass variables between spreadsheets. Both files are located in the same folder. Below are the links ive tried but have been unsuccessful to pass data.
(This link I used the swf loader component child and flash variables task Daya posted on Feb 15. However nothing loaded. The link wasnt a link i could display is in a browser. So i kept getting 0% when in preview mode.
Passing values from dashboard to dashboard with Flash Variables
Next I tried the following link. I did everything word for word and was able to display both files on the html page, but no link or connection between them existed. I would select a state and noting happened to the other swf files chart. Does this need to be in the Business Objects platform?
Dashboards 4.0: Connect to an external
Lastly , I used the link below. I followed everything and was able to get interaction from the parent to child however with only the files that were available on this thread. Their URL was this http://myxcelsius.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/child.swf?salesman=Schrute,Dwight. I get the concatenation but I dont get how this URL was generated? How do I develop my URL? My URL is able to display in a browser. My URL is
http://kln-ftvp/KLNPheonix//LinkToReport.htm?fqn=MyEnterprise.Public.graphtest&run=true
SWF Loader shows 100% instead of Dashboard.
Even with my URL being able to display in internet explorer, I still only show 100% and a blank screen. Can anyone help me with any of the issues I am having trouble with? Your help is most appreciated. Thank you.

It looks like you have more than one problems so it might be good to separate them out.
Issue 1 - Logging on to BusinessObjects
You say that when you try log on to the BO Platform you get the error message there is no central management server running on port 6400. I'm assuming you are trying to do this from the Dashboard designer.
Does it work when you try to log on from the web browser?
Make sure that you enter the correct system name in the system field when trying to log on from Designer. If you are unsure, either check what system name is used when you log on from your browser or check with your BO administrator.
Issue 2 - Passing values to a child dashboard
If you try to preview the dashboard in the designer, remember that the swf loader doesn't work in preview mode, so whatever you are trying to display won't be visible.
First of all you need to have 2 separate flash files that works independently of each other. The one that you are planning to use as a child flash, make sure that you create the flash variables so you can pass variables to it and use them to filter your data if that is your requirement. But hold off on that for now.
When you have 2 working flash files, save them both to the BI Launch Pad (or InfoView if you are on 3.1) and make sure they both work there. Then get the opendocument url for the child dashboard and try to open it in your browser directly using this url. If that works, use the same url in the swf viewer in the parent dashboard, save the parent dashboard back to BI Launch Pad and open it. It should now work.
Let me know if you have any problems with these steps.
Cheers,
Josh

How can I send data from multiple range with VBA API ?

hello everyone,
i have one worksheet , multiple range. With addin , we can specified the range to retrieve or submit.
In smart view for retreive, I have the API retrieverange so I can do the same. But for submitting data, I only have the API "HypSubmitData" and it doesn't take any paramater like a rangebut only the sheet !
So how do you manager to do it ? one worksheet per range ?
thanks for answers

11.1.2.5.400 added the capability to perform range submission, however I doubt that the vba is not updated with the function. So you might have to wait for a while, or you can create a code which copied the selected cells to a hidden worksheet and perform submit from that sheet. Keep in mind that when the use make the selection, you'll have to copy the pov too.

Copy data between planning area with function module

Hi gurus!
I'm involved in a consumer products project
In my multiplaning area i copy "catalog code" from act to fct after a preliminary selection in a authorization layout..
Due to increase performance I'm in need to convert the FOX which copies data from actual plan area to fct plan area after the authorization check, into a formula exit...
This fox works fine but as you can imagine it takes a lot of time to execute cause it has to read every catalog code form the transactional data...
here follows gross summary of the code.
this FOX copies ACT catalog code into FCT catolg
code by CALQUARTER according to Catalog code
authorization stored in AUTH version
DATA PER TYPE 0CALQUARTER.
DATA ENDPER TYPE 0CALQUARTER.
DATA KEYF TYPE KEYFIG_NAME
PER = VARV(variable)
ENDPER = TMVL(per,4).
catalog code is present in the level selection
with no filter
AUTH is the version used for set up the
authorization in data copy (no quarte info is needed)
IF {KEYF,AUTH,#,PLAN1}>0.
PLAN1 I the FCT plan area, PLAN2 is the Act plan area
DO.
{KEYF,FCT,PER,PLAN1}={KEYF,ACT,PER,PLAN2}.
IF PER = ENDPER.EXIT.ENDIF.
PER=TMVL(PER,1).
ENDDO.
ENDIF.
I've found many example in the forum but nothing which refers to different planning areas data copy with exit.
I'll be gratefull to any of you who can help me to compile this function module.
Best regards
M91

Hi Rakesh,
You can use COPY/Version Management Function to do this.
Path: Demand Planning > Environment >Copy/ Version Management
The system takes into account only those periodicities that are common to both planning areas.
For example, if the data is saved in months in the source planning area (PA1) but in months and weeks in the target planning area (PA2)
the system copies to months in the target planning area and then Disaggregates the data to the storage buckets in accordance with the Time-based Disaggregation.
hope this wil help to understand the basic concept.

Comparing Data between two tables with different structure

Hi,
I have 2 tables T1 and T2. Both tables have different structure. I have to check for rows missing in T1 which exist in T2 and vice-versa. I can do that using MINUS operator. But the part where the data exists in both T1 and T2, I have to compare some columns (9 columns the names of this column coming from a meta-data table) if they have same values. If not an exception has to be generated.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
Whenever you need help on this forum, post:
(1) The version of Oracle (and any other relevant software) you're using
(2) A little sample data (just enough to show what the problem is) from all the relevant tables
(3) The results you want from that data (4) Your best attempt so far
Executable SQL statements (like "CREATE TABLE AS ..." or "INSERT ..." statements) are best for (2).
Formatted tabular output is okay for (3). Type before and after the tabular text, to preserve spacing.
What do you mean by "an exception has to be generated"?
Do you want to raise an error?
Do you want something to appear in the result set?
MINUS finds rows that are in one result set, but not in another.
INTERSECT finds rows that are in both result sets.
Column names have to be hard-coded into the SQL statement. If you want to write something now that will get column names from a metadata table sometime in the future, then you have to use dynamic SQL. SQL*Plus sometimes has quick and dirty ways of doing dynamic SQL, so say whether you're using SQL*Plus or not.

Copying data between two tables with different structures

Please help. Thanks

INSERT INTO second_table SELECT col1, col2, col3, .., 'text', 'text', 5 FROM first_table;
