Default date in reports without prompting in the report

Hi,
I am using xcelsius 2008, i have developed a report and it should run on a particular date (current date) without hard coding it in the worksheet. because don't want the user to enter date , and report should run for current date.

Aflal

Still, you would use Excel formulas. I assume you're passing values to a filter? E.g.
From date: =now()-365
To date: =now()
Or something to that effect.

How can I read and display data with OR without recording at the same time?

Hi all,
This forum has been of much help to me, but I have a rather specific question I can't seem to find an answer to. I am new to LabView, educating myself with tutorials, trial and error, and this forum.
Attached is what I have so far. I would like to read data (three voltages) and write it to an excel file. As written below, it will do nothing until I click the "Record" button, when it then takes data, displays it on the gauges and waveform chart, and writes it to a file. What I would like it to do is display the data at all times, and record when I click the record button (while still displaying data being read). I have tried to do this by moving the DAQ Assistant VI, gauges, and waveform graph outside of the loops, but when I do this, it will read until I press record, and then it simply records whatever value it's stuck on. Sorry for the long post, thanks for any help.

Record and Write to File 2.vi ‏332 KB

Sorry, I don't have any DAQ installed, so I won't comment on the DAQ parts.
First of all, Your VI will do nothing until you (1) first set the record button to ON and (2) press the start button in the tool bar. It almost seems that you are using the "continuous run" button. (Don't! That's not its purpose. Basically, it automatically restarts the program whenever it finishes). A toplevel VI should never stop during normal operation, so place a big while loop around all code and create a wait state that does nothing until you tell it to acquire.
You don't need the inner while loop, simply place your code inside the big while loop (and accumulate your array data in an initialized shift register if really needed. Currently you do at the inner loop boundary for some reason). You have a big problem that the array can grow without bounds unless you clear the accumulated data once in a while or place it in a FIFO buffer of limited size. If you let ot grow forever like you do now, the program might run out of resources at one point in the future.
Since you are appending to your file, maybe yo don't need any shift register, just use the data points of the current iteration. Place your save operations in a case structure and keep appending the new data to your file only if the case is true.
It is also very inefficient to use highlevel file IO here,because each instance opens and closes the file. I recommend to open the file once outside the loop, then use low level IO to append, and close the file once the big loop is done.

How to get a calculated default date value as filter prompt

Dear Colleagues,
I would need to get a calculated date as dafault value in a query filter promp.
I tried to use the token <%TODAY%> to set by default the current date and it works.
But I'd need to set 6 months before the current date as default value in the filter prompt. Any idea to get it?
I tried to set <%TODAY%> - 120 for example but it's not working because I think the system is taking this as a DATE type value.
Thanks in advance!
Regards.
Martin

How to set sysdate as default date in dashboard prompt

Hi all
I want to set default date(sysdate) in dashboard prompt. How to do that.
I have not done this before.
tell me in clear.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Anand,
The formatting of the data is not something you can change in the variable expression. It is dependent on the data type of the column you used in the prompt. For example, if your prompted column is a DATE data type in your repository file, then you will NOT see a timestamp. However, if your source column is defined as a DATETIME object, then it will always add in a timestamp, even if that timestamp is 12:00:00.
If you don't want a timestamp, go into your repository and in your physical layer, change the datatype of your column from DATETIME to DATE. And in the prompt, keep using the syntax: @{system.currentTime}\[MM/DD/YYYY\]
Good luck and if you find this useful, please award points!
Best regards,
-Joe

Date Picker - Default Date

Is there a way to set a default date in the date picker, but not show this default date in the date item? I want the date item to be blank, but when the user clicks on the date picker it will default to a date that is entered in another part of the application.
Example, users are entering people that are on call. They are entering date for March. I can set the default date, but it shows up in the date item. I just want the date picker to have the default.
Thanks in advance.

The APEX Date Picker's default is directly tied to the field. You can't set one without the other unless you wanted to create your own date picker item. There are a few custom date pickers you can do a quick search for. You might be able to find one you can modify to meet your needs.

Default Date Format in Oracle 9i

What is the default date given by oracle 9i when the column is specified as NULL for the date column ?
Just like in SQL Server 2000 when date is given as NULL, it will give date as
'1900-01-01 00:00:00' in that column. What is it in Oracle 9i
Thanx in advance!

It will be a NULL, unless you specify a DEFAULT for the column:-
<code>
SQL> create table t ( x int, y date );
Table created.
SQL> insert into t ( x ) values ( 1 );
1 row created.
SQL> select * from t;
X Y
1
SQL> alter table t modify ( y date default sysdate );
Table altered.
SQL> insert into t ( x ) values ( 1 );
1 row created.
SQL> select * from t;
X Y
1
1 21-JUL-05
</code>

Default data in Customs document

Hello
How do I make default data into a field setting with conditions such as if Field A is 'X' and Field B is 'Y', then there should be a default data 'Z' into Field C.
Example, in Customs declaration document, if Country of Dep is X from header info and Item category is Y from Item info, then the default data for Place of Loading header should be Z
The Procedures for Defaulting Customs data in IMG has been checked. I have defined the Target document data for document field. Also done the Determination procedure for defaulting data. I have set up the master data in the Customs application menu to specify the Source data and Target data to default.
Am I missing something pls or is this something that BADI is better for?
Thanks

A Date prompt defaulting the data in Report based on selection

Gurus,
I have a requirement , where i have a (in between) date prompt set in the dashboard current defulting to Start Month date and End Month date of current month.
What the user want is based on the selection using a drop down in dashboard which has got values Last Day, Last week, Last Month , the default values in Date filter should change in dashboard.
For Eg. If the user select Last Week, the in between date filter show the default date value as Last Week Mon and Last Sun, and should filter out the report based on that.
Any idea's are welcome....
Thanks & Regards
-Saurabh

Try to see if you can get user to agree on something easier.
Here are the steps to achieve what you want.
1. Create a prompt for 1 day, 2 week, and 3 month
2. Create three separate reports based on above selection, which has page prompt for day/week/month respectively.
3. Create GN based on step in 1 and then let UI change between three reports you created in step 2
I hope this helps,
Best luck

Hi Suresh,
I have got more idea to do this.
1 .Build another object of the same field in unv = u201CDate Rangeu201D
code:
    case when (Date between trunc(sysdate u2013 1) and trunc(sysdate)) then u2018Yesterdayu2019
             when (Date between trunc(sysdate u2013 8) and trunc(sysdate+1)) then u2018Last 8 Daysu2019
   end
2. Now Add Yesterday in the defalut for currentdate-1 promp or u2018Last 8 Daysu2019 for currentdate-8 Prompt.
= @Prompt(u2019Date Pickeru2019,'Au2019,DateX,mono,constrained,persistent,{u2019Yesterdayu2019})
   Create this prompt in the "Date Range" objects. or create a condition, What ever way you want it.
Please try this and see if this can work without any parsing error.

Urgent- How to Default Current Months First Date in a Dashboard Prompt

We have requirement that whenever our user clicks on a dashboard it should show the report associated with the dashboard defaulted to MTD.
For example if the user is running the dashboard on 16th Jan then the report associated with dashboard by default should show data from 1st Jan to 16 Jan.
And then latter user should be able to select the dates of his choice in dashboard prompt and the report should show data according to selected date.
Please send some clues or work around for this issue.

Regarding Question 2:
What you need to have is a Dashboard scope dashboard prompt for Product_ID (i.e., Don't use the column prompt from the prompt tab within the Request.)
1) Create the dashboard prompt, put it on tab1 and save the prompt to a presentation variable, say prmtProdID. Set the scope to "dashboard." (This is the default, by the way.) If you create a dashboard prompt and set the scope to "dashboard," then the prompt values selected will hold true across dashboard pages.
2) On tab2, go to your report and in Criteria mode, apply a filter to the Product_ID column making it equal to the PV. (Click the filter icon, Add>Variable>Presentation Variable and type prmtProdID. Save.)
When the user selects a Product_ID on tab1 of your dashboard and hits "Go," not only will it filter your report on tab1, when you go to tab2 the report here will be filtered with the same value selected in the prompt on tab2.
Regarding Question 3:
If you implement 2, you cannot implement 3. You can't have it both ways. Not for the same scenario. But if you want to know how to do it in general, read this:
