Date Range and Null Values

Post Author: mrae
CA Forum: Formula
I want to pull up data that have been completed for the month, but also want to include null values. I did the following but didn't work.
(isnull({wrhwr.date_completed}) or {wrhwr.date_completed} => 4/1/2008 12:00:00AM or =<4/30/2008 11:59:59PM
Help, please?

Post Author: SKodidine

Try:
isnull({wrhwr.date_completed}) or {wrhwr.date_completed} IN datetime(2008,04,01,00,00,00) to datetime(2008,04,30,23,59,59)

How to differentiate the EMPTY Records and Null Values in DSO

Hello....how is everyone here?? Ehehehe!
I try to load some data from the flat file which contains some EMPTY data and Null Values for the records. The data type for the InfoObjects of the fields "Quantity" is "number". The sample data from the flat file (CSV) are as below:
Food              Quantity
Hamburger -       12
Cheese        -       0
Vegetable      -               (Empty)
When I try to load the above sample data to the DSO, I get the results of the data as follow:
Food              Quantity
Hamburger     - 12.000
Cheese           - 0.000
Vegetable         - 0.000
In this case, how can the user differentiate whether the records is contain empty value of null values in DSO? This is kinda of hard to differentiate the both scenarios above. Is there any way to differentiate the scenarios described here?
Thanks alot =)

Hi Fluffy,
It depends on the initial values of the data type
The inital values For quantity/Currency/ Numbers it takes spaces as 0
for char it is SPACE
We cannot differeniate between space and null values.
IF you have to force this then define quantity as char and load the data. we will not have units and aggregation in this case.
Hope this helps.

Mailbox Export - Filtered for Date Range and Body Content

I have been pulling my hair out with this one and hopefully someone can help.
I need to search a mailbox and export all (sent & received) messages that fit in a date range and also have a specific word in the body. The query I am using doesn't seem to find the term at all, but the messages it does find fit within my date range,
so part of it seems to work. The request was to not use wildcards too, only looking for the specific word in the body. Here is my one-liner...
New-MailboxExportRequest -ContentFilter {(Body -like "Something") -and (Received -gt "07/01/2012") -and (Received -lt "07/31/2012") -or (Sent -gt "07/01/2012") -and (Sent -lt "07/31/2012")} -Mailbox "SearchMailbox"
-Name "Label1" -FilePath \\server\temp\pst\Export.pst
I've also tried to search for a common word like "the" just to make sure it wasn't a case of the term simply not being in mailbox. No dice.

Hi,
Agree with Nickeyclayton, you can use (body -like "*something*") instead of (body -like "something").
I recommend you refer to the following article:
Filterable Properties for the -ContentFilter Parameter
Property
Description
Values
Example syntax
Body
This property returns messages that have the specified string within the message body.
String
Wildcard
-ContentFilter {Body -like "*prospectus*"}
Hope this helps!
Thanks.

Query from the data abse and pass values to a pdf form

query from the data abse and pass values to a pdf form
Hello
Hello i have this html report that i have written to output a
report.
now, i am assigned to pass the same fields to a pdf form so
the fields in the adaobe form can be populated or the term
Pre-populate the form.
can anyone help me get started.
first i would like to know if it can be done.
second, what do i need to get started (tools )
third how do i do this.
i am really lost at this point.
can anyone give me tips in how to approach this
subject??

It can be one using Adobe Acrobat Designer which is packaged
with Acrobat
Professional Pro 7. It uses all XML to create and populate
forms.
If you had the time, you can also create <cfdocument
type="pdf"> to have
them ready and just pass the info to it so it autogenerates
the PDF on the
fly.

Moving multiple files by date range and/or file name filtered

I need to move multiple files by date range and/or by filename (using a filter) to another directory.
OR
How can I get the attributes of files in a directory, something you would see when typing in "dir" in a DOS or ls in UNIX. I can parse this info and then make a array of files to move.
The reason for needing this is that I need to move files that are located in another country, and sort them into different directories based on date. Having to read each file for it's file information adds wasted time that I can't afford. I am about to create a dos terminal to do a "dir" command to get the information and parse it out.. but I was hoping LV had a function that can get me that info so I don't have build it.
THanks.

You should use the 'File/Directory Info' functionality.
This will return the last modificatoin of the file.

Need JavaScript for Sharepoint Designer 2010, to show a Pop-up to all the users between date range and the redirect the site

Dear all,
I am very new to Sharepoint designer 2010. Its better to say, i am just stepping in.
I have sharepoint site which is accessible for all the users to update few information. But i want this site not to be accessible during a date range, say from 15th to 20th of every month.
I am planning to have something like this: If any user tries to access this sharepoint site between 15th to 20th date range of everymonth, then the browser must show an pop-up alert saying "This site is not accessible during this date range" and Redirect
this sharepoint site to someother site (Say http:// somesitename.xx.com) immidiately.
I know very little about how to add Javascript in sharepoint webpart.
Please provide the Javascript or any best alternate solution to my concern.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
From your description, my understanding is that you want to redirect sharepoint site to another site between 15th and 20th every month.
I agree with what Sudip says. If you still want to use JS code,You could try these steps
below:
Open your site with SharePoint Designer.
Click Master Pages in left navigation.
Find file v4.master, and backup it(it is very important).
Right click your v4.master,
choose "Edit File in Adavance Mode".
Add the code below into the <head/> tag.
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.1.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script
type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
var today = new Date();
var day = today.getDate(); // get current day
var id = _spPageContextInfo.userid; // get the id of current logon in user
var boolFlg = false;
$.ajax({
   url: _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/web/SiteGroups/GetByName(\'"+"sharepoint Owners"+"\')/Users", //get users in a specified group can access the sharepoint site from 15th to 20th every
month
   type: "GET",
   headers: {"accept": "application/json;odata=verbose"},
   success: function (data) {
      if (data.d.results) {
         var src = data.d.results;
         for(var i = 0; i < src.length; i++){
            if(src[i].userid==id){ //check the logon in user in the specified group or not
               boolFlg = false;
               break;
         if(!boolFlg){
            if(day <= 20 && day >=15){
                alert("This site is not accessible during this date range"); // alert the message
                location.href = "http:// somesitename.xx.com"; // redirect to another site
   error: function (xhr) {
      alert(xhr.status + ': ' + xhr.statusText);
})</script>

Problem with QofQ and Null Values

Just converted from CF5 to CF7. Finally figured out what was
causing the error message :
"The value "" cannot be converted to a number" when running a
QofQ. It happens whenever there is a NULL (and I think a ZERO)
value in the QofQ. I'm using the QofQ in a seperate chart program.
The main query merges data from a store and a region table.
I'm doing a LEFT OUTER JOIN to combine the REGION with the STORE,
AND so that stores with NO SALES for a given day will show up as
ZERO. On the main report, when I don't use a QofQWhen grouping by
DAY or MONTH, I can test the value in the CFOUTPUT for NULL or ZERO
and display "0" or "N/A" on the report.
But when I try to chart it, using a QofQ to read in the
values from the main query, and format the numbers, I get this
error message. I've tried using the CAST function, using FLOAT,
DOUBLE, BIGINT, etc., but still get same error message.
The only way I could fix this is to add a WHERE statement to
the QofQ, that only includes sales values greater than ZERO. But
then, I have gaps in my chart because stores with NO SALES for a
given day or MONTH don't appear. Because they are removed from the
query. The whole point of LEFT JOINS is to include items with no
values (or NULL) values.
Does anyone know if it's possible to keep these values in a
QofQ? So that items (e.g., store locations in my case) with NULL or
ZERO values for some or all days or months can be charted? Even
with a ZERO value? I've read everything I can get my hands on
regarding QofQ, the CAST function, etc., but nothing seems to work.
Thanks for any help. (FYI, didn't have this problem with CF5. It's
QofQ could handle NULL or ZERO values without providing an error).

Well, I tried the IsNull function on the 3 SUM() values I was
calculating in my SELECT statement (on a LEFT OUTER JOIN QUERY),
and I STILL got another "cannot convert "" to a number" but this
time the error message was more direct, and pointed me to a DATE
field in my query, where I was SORTING AND GROUPING either by DAY
or MONTH (depending on what user selected on form).
In my QofQ, I'm not just reformating the integer SUM()
values, but also the date values. So, I applied the IsNull()
function to the DATE values in my main query. I still kept getting
errors. But after experimenting ((SQL Server BOL docs doesn't give
ISNULL() examples for DATE FIELDS, only NUMBER fields), I tried
putting the dates in SINGLE QUOTES in my IsNull() function, the
QUERY RAN. Then I wasn't sure WHAT date to enter, e.g., 1/1/1889 or
1/1/2001, etc.
Then, I discovered, after experimenting, that you cannot just
blindly enter ANY date when using IsNull in a date field,
especially if you are using CFGRAPH to chart the results by day.
You have to select a date within the date range the user selected,
so this means using the FORM.DATE (or URL.DATE) value from the
form. Here's the working example from my SELECT main query:
SELECT SUM(ISNULL(d.ttldb,0)) AS SumOfDB,
SUM(ISNULL(d.ttldbv,0)) AS SumOfDBV,
SUM(ISNULL(d.ttldbi,0)) AS SumOfDBI,
<CFIF '#url.reptype#' IS "DAILY">
ISNULL(d.depday, '#url.date1#') AS depday
<CFELSE>
month(ISNULL(d.depday, '#url.date2#')) AS TranMonth,
year(ISNULL(d.depday, '#url.date2#')) AS TranYear
</CFIF>
Then I discovered that whatever date was used in the URL.DATE
field (in my case it would be one of the two date field from the
form, and depended on whether you coded DATE1 or DATE2, the chart
would always show ZERO values for that date. So I tried putting the
IsNull() date values in the GROUP BY and ORDER BY statements, e.g.,
<CFIF '#url.reptype#' IS "DAILY">
GROUP BY ISNULL(d.depday, '#url.date1#')
ORDER BY ISNULL(d.depday, '#url.date1#') DESC
<CFELSE>
GROUP BY year(ISNULL(d.depday, '#url.date2#')),
month(ISNULL(d.depday, '#url.date2#'))
ORDER BY year(ISNULL(d.depday, '#url.date2#')),
month(ISNULL(d.depday, '#url.date2#'))
</CFIF>
And this worked. The report ran just fine, and the chart
charted every value correctly.
I guess you have to learn all the little "quirks" about CF7
and how it's QofQ and chart programs work. But so far, so good.
Thank you all for your help. Now I've got to update other old
CF5 programs that are returning errors when there are null values
from my LEFT OUTER JOIN queries. Will take some time, but at least
I know how to do it. Thanks to your help.
I really appreciate your time and efforts to help with this
issue.

Find intersections in date ranges and concatenate aggregated labels

Hello All,
The original source of data will be a table of persons with their member ship:
Description StartDate EndDate
18 Smith John Poker Club 01/01/2009 NULL
18 Smith John Library 05/01/2009 18/01/2009
18 Smith John Gym 10/01/2009 28/01/2009
26 Adams Jane Pilates 03/01/2009 16/02/2009
The challenge will be to find each intersection of membership date ranges for each person and produce for this each unique range:
a new line with the StartDate and EndDate of the range
Concatenate in the description the descriptions of the memberships for this range with:
“/” as separator
order by membership StartDate
This is the table of results expected:
18 Smith John Poker Club 01/01/2009 04/01/2009
18 Smith John Poker Club / Library 05/01/2009 09/01/2009
18 Smith John Poker Club / Library / Gym 10/01/2009 18/01/2009
18 Smith John Poker Club / Gym 19/01/2009 28/01/2009
18 Smith John Poker Club 29/01/2009 NULL
26 Adams Jane Pilates 03/01/2009 16/02/2009
Sample Script:
SET DATEFORMAT dmy
DECLARE @Membership TABLE (
PersonID int,
Surname nvarchar(16),
FirstName nvarchar(16),
Description nvarchar(16),
StartDate datetime,
EndDate datetime)
INSERT INTO @Membership VALUES (18, 'Smith', 'John',
'Poker Club', '01/01/2009', NULL)
INSERT INTO @Membership VALUES (18, 'Smith', 'John',
'Library', '05/01/2009', '18/01/2009')
INSERT INTO @Membership VALUES (18, 'Smith', 'John',
'Gym', '10/01/2009', '28/01/2009')
INSERT INTO @Membership VALUES (26, 'Adams', 'Jane',
'Pilates', '03/01/2009', '16/02/2009')
Note:Make sure that your solution uses a single query that starts either with "SELECT" or "WITH" or ";WITH".
Can you please share suggestions.

Distinguishing between empty string and null values

hi all,
I am using an ODBC connection to connect my java app to database using JDBCODBC driver. I have 2 columns 'aColumn' and 'bColumn' in my table, both allow null values. I have one row in it, which has null value in aColumn and empty string in bColumn. I retrieve this row's data and assign it to 2 columns : 'aColumnVar' and 'bColumnVar' respectively. I find out that both 'aColumnVar' and 'bColumnVar' variables has null values (although bColumnVar should has an empty string as its value). Now my ODBC connection Data Source has the option "Use ANSI nulls, paddings, and warnings" ON. I turn it off and try again. This time both 'aColumnVar' and 'bColumnVar' variables has empty string as values (although aColumnVar should has null as its value).
How can I make sure that i can get the data exactly as it is in the database in my variables?
Thanks

there is a wasNull() method on ResultSet. After you
have obtained the value of a column e.g. by calling a
method like getString you can call wasNull and if it
returns true then the value on the database is null.
Check the java docs, it might explain it better
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/api/java/sql/Result
et.html#wasNull()I am using MS SQL Server 7.0 under Windows NT 4.0 with JDK 1.2. My ODBC connection Data Source has to have the option "Use ANSI nulls, paddings, and warnings" ON.
I try the wasNull() method but it is doing the same thing i.e. telling me that a column is null when in database it is null (right); and a column is null when in database it is an empty string (wrong). I suspect it is something to do with the JDBC-ODBC driver I am using.

About xml and null values in 10g

Hi, I have an UCM GetFile webservice component wich receives 4 arguments, two of them are null values (rendition and extraPops), and the xml request generated by obpm is:
<GetFileByName xmlns="http://www.stellent.com/GetFile/">
<dDocName>V_123410</dDocName>
<revisionSelectionMethod>latestReleased</revisionSelectionMethod>
<rendition/>
<extraProps/>
</GetFileByName>The problem is: On UCM web service, an empty tag like <rendition/> is treated like a "empty string" value, instead of a null value, and then the response i get isn't the expected.
What I want do to is change this behavior, and when I put null values in requests, the obpm should not write those tags. Is that possible?
Should be like that:
<GetFileByName xmlns="http://www.stellent.com/GetFile/">
<dDocName>V_123410</dDocName>
<revisionSelectionMethod>latestReleased</revisionSelectionMethod>
</GetFileByName>Thanks!

Hi,
I have question regarding aggregates. It's possible to read data from BW aggregates? We have webi reports on a SAP BW multi cube and we would like to optimize retriving query.
>> Because you are using the BW Query as the source all the items that you have done so far in terms of aggregation, indexing, ... is all valid and there are no specific steps required to leverage it with Web Intelligence. Make sure the aggregates are "correct" meansing that they do reflect what you are asking for in the Web Intelligence query panel
How can we filter in webi query null (#) values. If we create condition that some variabe is diffrent from # we still get null (#) values in report.
>> You should be able to create a variable. in case you tried that already could you be more specific ?

MS Access and Null values

Hi,
I'm attempting to create a report in Crystal Reports Designer 2008 using a Microsoft Access 2003 table as a source. I'm having difficulty with my report design when the first record of the table contains a NULL value. I wish to find the Maximum() value of this field using the formula Maximum({table.field1}, {table.field2}) where field1 contains the value i'm trying to find the maximum of and field2 contains the grouping data. I find that if field1 contains valid values then the formula works as expected whereas if the first field1 value is NULL then the formula simply refuses to output anything (not even an error).
I attempted to amend my formula to read:
If IsNull({table.field1})
Or {table.field1} = ""
Or {table.field1} = " " Then
"1"
Else
Maximum({table.field1}, {table.field2})
But this also refuses to work.
I also tried the following from the menu File > Report Options ... > Convert Database NULL Values to Default, and the other setting of Convert Other NULL Values to Default, but neither seemed to work for me.
Any ideas on how I can test the table to see if the value is a null and hence deal with it?
Thanks,
Mike

Ian,
I had previously tried that with no luck.
I've investigated further and I think the problem actually lies elsewhere. In my report design I join a couple of SQL Server views to the MS Access table. I think the join conditions are such that there is no data to bring back and so although the {table.field1} contains a vaule it is being ignored since the other tables can't join to it.
I've managed to alter my other views and the problem still seems to have gone for the moment.
I guess to answer my own question, the use of ISNULL(), = "" or = " " are the correct tests for a MS Access table and probably for most other data sources as well.
Thanks,
Mike

Date Range - Delete ZERO Values

Hi All,
     Few days back I had posted Query Regarding Date range where in I enter Proj# from_month, from_year, To_month and To_year.
The output data for the project must be within this year range.
suppose I enter proj no. 13381 and

from_year - 2004
To_month - 04
from_year - 2005
This is the Desired Output:

You can do this easily just by deleting all records in one shot.
delete ITAB_OUT where plan14 = 0.
You can put that statement after the SELECT...ENDSELECT.
Or you can not even add them to the internal table at all. You can check before you APPEND to the table.
CLEAR ITAB_OUT-PLAN14.
ITAB_OUT-PLAN14 = ITAB_OUT-PLAN14 + <FS>.
<b>If itab_out-plan14 > 0.
APPEND ITAB_OUT.
endif.</b>
enddo.
ENDSELECT.

SUMIFS with Date Range and Condition

Hi, I have search in the forums and read the online numbers guide but can't seem to get the formular working in Numbers.
I want to sum up a column of durations, if they are in between 2 dates and meet the condition to belong to one project. I have the following table:
project
total duration
project
start
end
duration
date range start
date range end
one
0
one

I have the following formular but it does not give me any value: =SUMIFS(F,C,A5,D"≥"$G$2,E"≤"$H$2)
What am I doing wrong
Thank you for your help.

Hi Barry,
thank you very much for your detailed reply.
The first difference I spot is that my duration is in hours:minutes 00:00 but this should not make a difference, right? I attach you here some sample data:
Project
Start date
Start time
End date
End time
Duration
Project 1

And I will go through my formular again and check if everything is correct.
Many greets, Andreas

Automated row fetches, checkboxes and null values

Hi
In Apex3 I have a page with automated fetch row process that is working fine. Now I need to add a new not null varchar2 column "flag" which can be a Y or a N.
To do so, I created a new checkbox item p1_flag, set the source properties and the LOV definition to: STATIC2:Flag set;Y
However when I try to save the data with the checkbox unticked I get a null value error. To solve it, I created a computation on that field like this:
nvl(:p1_flag, 'N')
Is this the best way to do it? (other than using database triggers)
Thanks
Luis

Hi Patrick
Thanks for the reply. I thought that, just wondered if there were a better way...
Another option that I was thinking about was to modify the column definition to be nullable, with valid values being Y and null. So I wouldn't have to care about it. The only thing being that I don't like very much the idea of modifying the database design because of the development tool (though I saw things much worse than this, as using VARCHAR2 instead of DATE because the front end tool didn't handle date datatypes very well!)
Or just stick to a trigger to do it.
Cheers

Defining Date range and using the same range to search the documents.

Hi Sap Gurus,
in our business there are some documents which do have Validity period, like say Inspection certificates and valid for say 10 months, ex.. JAN 25th 2009 to Oct 24th 2009
we store this certificate in DMS and link to some SAP object say an Asset,
we have a requirement to list all the documents based on the expiry date range. say to get a list of documents which are about to expire in 15 days, or the list of documents which have already expired
I tried to define a characteristic in date format, but it is a single value field, and search is only supported on that specific value only.
like we cannot serch the DIR falling in between this Date Ranges.
also report of Documents which are to expire in 15 days could not be got.
is there a way to meet this requirement , if it is through a development also please tell me how the logic could be built
Thanks and regards
Priya S

Hi SAP Gurus,
Thanks much Thomas for your Promt reply.
The solution provided by Thomas really works but the same thing is not possible in EDMS,
in Easy DMS we cannot manually give any value in the date characteristics field, the system will ask to fill from the date window format.
so we cannot enter < or > <> value in characteristics, hope there is any note or other procedure to get the same funtionality.
please if any one worked on the same with EDMS let me know
Thanks and kind regards
Priya S
