Datafrom different years 1 table

Hello all,
A table ('main') contains data for multiple years (2009, 2010, 2011) , department and expense.
How can I duplicate in Oracle BI 11G :
select a.department, a.expense, a.year,b.department, b.expense, b.year,
from main a, main b
where a.department=b.department
and a.year =2011
and b.year =2010;
I tried to create a duplicate table (main B) in Presentation Layer and later select 2011 data from table main and 2010 data from table main B.
The results generate 'No Results"
The specified criteria didn't result in any data. This is often caused by applying filters and/or selections that are too restrictive or that contain incorrect values. Please check your Analysis Filters and try again. The filters currently being applied are shown below.
Thank you in advance,
Sonya

How to write a case statement for the totals column of two different years (2013 and 2014) of the same month so that I can get a +/- column

Please Help!!!
How to write a case statement for the totals column of two different years (2013 and 2014) of the same month so that I can get a +/- column.
 January 2014 January

What is a table structure? Sorry cannot test it right now..
SELECT <columns>,(SELECT Total FROM tbl WHERE Y=2014)-(SELECT Total FROM tbl WHERE Y=2013)

Committed budget and invoice in different years

Hi,
We cannot post invoices in fiscal 2012 if PO/entry sheet docs are open in fiscal year 2011 without Carryforward of Open Items.
We have year of cash effectivity activated in our system and FM update profile 000359. Under the accrual basis of accounting, cash is disposed when entry sheets are registered, so invoices should not affect account assignment. Is there any way to prevent this error in our system and allow users to post invoices simultaneously in 2011 or 2012, without Carryforward of Open Items? Is there any kind of implementation to change to override update profile so that change status from Service Order to Invoice is not considered in FM.
Thanks for your help,
Iván Garcí

Hi,
000359 profile is not supposed to be working with PBET (unless, you made modifications to it) and therefore, theoretically, invoice could be posted in a different year. Did you do any modifications (OF39)?

Eli

JOIN ON 2 different sets of table depending on the result of first set

How do i do it?
[pre]

 
I have hard coded the 2 jon sets into one using UNION ALL but if one record exists in both sets how would i diferentiate between the 2 sets.
COUNT(*) will only give the total records.
if there r total 14
suppose first set gives 12 records
second set gives 4 records.
But i want only 14 records which could 12 from set 1 and 2 from set 2 since set1 and set2 can have common records.

2.Index organized tables
3.Index clustered tables
4.Hash clustered tables
5.Nested tables
6.Global temporary tables
7.Object tables

Different Year Ends For Each Venture in JVA

Hi Guys,
Can we define different year ends for each venture we create in Joint Venture Accounting Module of SAP IS Oil and Gas Solution. If yes how can we ? transaction code or path needed.

This may be a good start. Display by Month Year the Average and Sum Dates between Start and Stop by Project.
SELECT      CAST    (
        (CAST(MONTH(Start) AS varchar(2)) + '/01/' + CAST(YEAR(Start) AS varchar(4)))
        AS DateTime
    AS DatePeriod,
    AVG(DateDiff(day, Start, Stop)) AS AverageDaysToClose,
    SUM(DateDiff(day, Start, Stop)) AS SumTotalDaysToClose,
    Name
FROM     Projects
GROUP BY CAST    (
        (CAST(MONTH(Start) AS varchar(2)) + '/01/' + CAST(YEAR(Start) AS varchar(4)))
        AS DateTime
    Name
ORDER BY DatePeriod, Name

Different DOP on tables nd indexes.

We have a few tables that have a different degree of paralellism from their indexes. I read that the table and indexes should have the same degree. Is that a best practice? If so, what are the issues if the DOP is different on the tables and the indexes? Why should they be the same and what is it's effect on CBO?
I have googled and have not been able to find out why they need to be the same. Can anyone point me to any links or articles on this?

I'm not sure that they NEED to be the same, but I would imagine that it would impact index cost adjusting if you don't have the same DOP between your table and your indexes. You might be left scratching your head as to why Oracle is doing a FTS when your testing is showing an index is much faster - then it turns out you have a larger DOP on your index than your table, etc.
Personally, I would not set DOP at the object level, but force your developers (or yourself) to set it via a hint. Rampant parallelism can cause significant performance problems and I've seen a lot of times that OLTP transactions will fire off extraneous PQ sessions (and cause slower performance for the query) simply because parallelism was set at the object level.
At least if you're doing it through a hint, you're making an explicit decision to use parallelism, as opposed to potentially firing it off without realizing it. It's also easier to change an SQL statement than it is to perform DDL against an object.

MT940 file transactions appear in different years (2011-2012)

Hi
We have received a MT940 file with the value date and document date in different years.
e.g. :61: 1203013012....
Here 12 means 2012, 0301 means value date = 03 January 2012, 3012 means document date = 30th December 2011
However the posting is made in 2012 only for both value date and document date which is incorrect
Value date = 03 Jan 2012
Document date = 30 Dec 2011
This is a compliance / SOX issue as the document date year posted is incorrect.
There are only 2 characters used to specify the year in this case which is 2012 - there should be a facility to specify 2011 also
I assume this scenario is quite common and must have occurred for other users also
I would appreciate any feedback on this item
Thanks in advance
Rahul Kochhar

Thanks Nico
Actually the issue is with changing the file because this would be considered as a SOX violation and would need approvals.
We have asked the users to use FF67 and do a manual posting line by line and modify the document date manually.
Both options need manual intervention and workaround and are tedious in nature.
I was under the impression that this would be a standard issue and faced by many people hence the post - maybe SAP has a note that can be used?
Please do let me know if you have any more suggestions
Thanks
Rahul

Different depreciation rates in different years

Hi ,
I have come across a situation in which client wants that different depreciation rates should be charged in different years.
For example 10% in 1st year, 7.5 % in 2nd year, 6 % in 3rd year, 4.5% in 4 years and so on .
Asset life should be assumed to be 10 years .
How can we map this in SAP.Please provide detail explanation.
Regards
Nike

Dear,
Nike Sam.
I supposed your issue seems relating to MACRS depreciation I think. If so then you have to use the multi level method in depreciation key.
Please note the your case is like MACRS depreciation so according to me you will get standard depreciation key for MACRS is
M200 & M150. However you can study them & configure as suits to your needs.
Perfom this on test client first. If you have any doubts feel free to share. You are welcome.

Reverse fo a settlement made in different year - KD283

Hi folks,
I need your help.
Could you please tell me what to do to reverse a settlement made in a different year?
By current settlement of an SD-Order position the error message KD283 - WIP/cost of sales can only be settled after reversal appears.
It is because we had to reverse some settlements...we were able to reverse only settlements made this year, but those made in last year were not able to reverse.
What to do, please?
I have found the SAP note 140672, but I am not sure if it is the right way, because it might insult in COPA-FI difference. Am I right?

Hi,
There are two options:
Option-1:
a) You can perform reposting or manual allocation in the current period and thus transfer the costs back from the cost center/dummy order to the sender.
b) Then, you have transferred the costs from the previous period which must still be settled or reversed into the current period.
c) Finally, the costs are now selected during the settlement in the current period.
Option-2:
a) You can use the full settlement processing type (initial screen of the settlement transaction), the system checks whether or not there are debits not settled yet from prior periods, and if so it issues an error message. You can then immediately correct the relevant orders, possibly by reversing the settlements of the current period and settling the previous period again.
b) For doing this, need to implement the correction of Note 586673 first.
Since this (Note 586673) involves program corrections and a reversal of the incorrect settlements, no issues in the change to 'FULL' with the existing 'PER' rule.

Different types of tables and purpose

Hi,
Could someone explain me the different types of tables an what data they store.
Sonali

hi Sonali,
These are the different types of tables in MDM
Flat Tables : It is a simple table consisting of record and fields ( rows and column) .
Hierarchy Table : A hierarchy table organizes information in a hierarchy, where each record is related to a parent record (even if the only parent is the root) and may also be related to sibling records and/or child records.
Taxonomy Table : A taxonomy is the classification scheme that defines the categories and subcategories that apply to a collection of records. Categorizing records enables you to isolate subsets of records for various organizing, searching, editing and publishing purposes.
Qualified Table : A qualified table in MDM stores a set of lookup records,and also supports qualifiers, u201Csubfieldsu201D that apply not to the qualified table record by itself, but rather to each association of a qualified table record with a main table record. MDM supports multiple simultaneous qualified tables.
Tables are also Categorized as Object Tables like :
Images : This table is for storing Images
Sounds : This table is for storing Sound File.
Videos : This table is for storing Video Files .
Binary Objects : This table is for storing Binary Objects.
Text Blocks : This table is for storing block of text.
Copy Blocks : This table is for storing block of text interpreted as a Copy.
Text HTML`s : This table is for storing block of text interpreted as a HTML.
PDFs : This table is for storing PDF files.
There are various types of Special Tables , i have mentioned below:
Image Variants : Used to define the structure
and format of each of the variants for each image. Each variant is a modified version derived from an original image; the original image is never modified.
Masks : In this defined subset of records are included in Mask i.e. in any scenario whether new records are added or deleted in the repository the records in the Mask remains the same unless edited by the user.
Families : Used to further partition main table records in each category into smaller groups based upon the values of other fields and/or attributes.
Relationships : Used to define each of the different record-level relationships. Each relationship can be either bidirectional (sibling) or unidirectional (parent-child).
Workflows : Stores the workflows of an MDM repository, where each workflow is stored as a record in the table.
Name Searches : Unlike Masks in case of Name search there are again a defined set of records but those records are selected on the basis of Search Selection. In this case if a record is added then the record is checked whether it fulfills the particular search criteria if it does than it is added to the Name serach else not.
Data Groups : Stores the hierarchy of data groups used to break the entire set of objects in the MDM repository into manageable subgroups.
There are various types of System Tables :
Roles : A single table named Roles. One of three tables used to implement MDM repository security and access control. Each role can selectively grant or deny access to any MDM function and to any table or field. This table is managed in the MDM Console and is not visible in the MDM Client.
Users : A single table named Users. One of three tables used to implement MDM repository security and access control. Each user can have one or more roles. This table is managed in the MDM Console and is not visible in the MDM Client.
Connections : A single table named Connections. One of three tables used to implement MDM repository security and access control. Contains an entry for each currently connected MDM client application, which can be terminated by the MDM Console user. This table is not visible in the MDM Client.
Change Tracking : A single table named Change Tracking. Allows you to specify the fields for which adds, modifies, and deletes should be tracked and stored in the Change Tracking table.
Remote Systems : A single table named Remote Systems. Used to define the different remote systems for import and export. Each specifies whether it supports inbound, outbound, or both. This table is managed in the MDM Console and is not visible in the MDM Client.
Ports : A single table named Ports. Used to encapsulate the logistical and configuration info for inbound and outbound processing of MDM data, for consolidation and distribution respectively. This table is managed in the MDM Console and is not visible in the MDM Client.
Links : A single table named Links. Used to specify the URLs that can be used as the target of an embedded browser in the Web tab in the MDM Client. This table is managed in the MDM Console and is not visible in the MDM Client.
XML Schema : A single table named XML Schemas. Used to identify the XML schemas for import and syndication. Each XML schema is the name of an .xsd file. This table is managed in the MDM Console and is not visible in the MDM Client.
Reports : A single table named Reports. Contains an entry for each report file generated by the various MDM repository operations, which can be accessed and viewed by the MDM Console user. This table is not visible in the MDM Client.
Logs : A single table named Logs. Contains an entry for the log files generated by the MDM Server, which can be accessed and viewed by the MDM Console user. This table is not visible in the MDM Client.
In MDM SP06 5.5 we can have only one main table, but in MDM 7.1 version we can maintain many main tables.
Rewards points if helpful

Vijay

How to model in RPD aggregate tables with different years of data

Can someone let me know how to accomplish the following in OBIEE?
I want to create a logical fact table with multiple logical table sources. I have an aggregate table that only stores current year data. In OBIEE, if a user builds a report using data from the current year, I want the query to hit this aggregate table. My base fact table however stores all years of data. If a user builds a report using data from prior time periods, I want the query to hit the base fact table.
And if you're curious, the aggregate only contains current year data because the ETL needs to do a full load each night due to the complexity. The high volume of data and the amount of time it takes to populate this aggregate means we only have time to populate the current year data.
Thanks in advance.

Yes this situation is both an aggregate table and fragmented data. I already modeled the aggregate table correctly specifying the content logical levels.
I'm not familiar with how to set the fragmentation logic. I see the fragmentation content section. What do I enter in this section to specify that my AGG table is for current year data? Do I need to enter something for both logica table sources?
Please let me know if there is a link with examples or an explanation. Appreciate the responses.

Data displayed in Discoverer is different to source table...???

Hi,
I have written a few transform scripts that create a 'final' table - to be used by Discoverer. The table has been added into the EUL and I have created a simple worksheet based on the table.
I am getting some pretty strange results.
The table added to the EUL is called T_DLM_REC_REPORT.
When I run the following script directly against the table
SELECT SUM(REFERRALS)
FROM T_DLM_REC_REPORT_1
WHERE APP_DATE BETWEEN '01-NOV-2009' AND '30-NOV-2009'
I get a value 46820 returned.
When I create a simple worksheet with three fields (two of which are page items) I get a different result.
I have added the Referrals column into the worksheet - this defaults to show the SUM
I have also added APP_DATE: YEAR and APP_DATE: MONTH as page items.
Filtering by YEAR = 2009 and MONTH = NOV the worksheet returns 46749.
This is the SQL generated by the worksheet:
SELECT ( DECODE(O148011.APP_DATE,NULL,TO_DATE(NULL,'MMDDYYYY'),TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(TRUNC(O148011.APP_DATE,'MM'),'MM')||'1900','MMYYYY')) ), ( DECODE(O148011.APP_DATE,NULL,TO_DATE(NULL,'MMDDYYYY'),TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(TRUNC(O148011.APP_DATE,'YYYY'),'YYYY')||'01','YYYYMM')) ), SUM(O148011.REFERRALS)
FROM UGP.T_DLM_REC_REPORT_1 O148011
GROUP BY ( DECODE(O148011.APP_DATE,NULL,TO_DATE(NULL,'MMDDYYYY'),TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(TRUNC(O148011.APP_DATE,'MM'),'MM')||'1900','MMYYYY')) ), ( DECODE(O148011.APP_DATE,NULL,TO_DATE(NULL,'MMDDYYYY'),TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(TRUNC(O148011.APP_DATE,'YYYY'),'YYYY')||'01','YYYYMM')) )
Pretty long winded if you ask me.
Can anyone help explain the results I am getting.
Many thanks
Mark

Hi Mark
If you are getting the same answer from Discoverer as you get from the database with no filters applied this is good news. This means that you are at least pointing to the right table.
Here's the way I would go about tracking down what is going on.
Rather than filter by month or by the days of November I would extend the search to include some days prior to the beginning of November and some days into the beginning of the December. I would also include the date itself along with the sum of the referrals.
Next, I would manually look at November and add up the referrals. You will soon see where the error is and then you can adjust your condition accordingly.
Best wishes
Michael

Insert twelve MONTH of the year into table A_MONTH

Could some help me with my simple SQL programming. Thanks

REM 2. Creates a table names fungue_table_ssss_nnnnnn with columns named A_Month, A_Date, A_Radius and A_Area.
Create table fungues_table_1442_794485 (
A_Month int,
A_Day date,
A_Radius number(9),
A_Area number(4));
REM 3. Enters records into the table by using loops, where A_Month is the month of the year, spelled out fully in capital letters, beginning with JANUARY and ending with DECEMBER.
Declare
Max_record constant number := 12;
I number := 1;
Begin
For I in 1..Max_record loop
Insert into fungues_table_1442_794485
(A_Month)
values
(I, sysdate);
end loop;
commit;
end;
null

SQLJ and JDBC are APIs for accessing the database from Java.
So do not be surprised there are not too many many takers for a PL/SQL programming exercise here. Or, try rewriting it in Java :)
