Displaying current month in prompt

Hi,
I want to show the current month as the default value in Prompt in XI R3.1 Webi. i.e. when the user runs the report, the prompt for "Month" should show the current month (Say March) and if user wants to change it he can change it to someother month.
Pls let me know how to acheive this (May be by doing changes to report or to the Universe).
Regards
Jim

You can try the below step in Universe
Steps
1.You have a date time field = u201CDateXu201D
2.Build another object of the same field in unv = u201CDate X New Objectu201D
code:
case When to_date (Sysdate, "MM") then "Current Month"
end
3.Build Condition in Unv = Date Picker
code:
@Select(Cass\DateX New Object) = @Prompt(u2019Date Pickeru2019,'Au2019,{u2019Customu2019,'Yesterdayu2019,'Last 10 Daysu2019,'Todayu2019},mono,constrained,persistent,{u2019Current Monthu2019})
You can take reference of the below

Display current month records only

Hi Experts,
I have the following requirement.
Report should display current month records only.
For example If the report is run on 20090324, It should display records from 20090301 to 20090324.
That means, report may run on any date of that month, It should display from 01 (of that month) to current date.
I have a select statement saying
SELECT * FROM likp
WHERE wadat_ist BETWEEN month_start_date AND sy-datum
    AND vkorg IN s_vkorg
    AND vkbur IN s_vkbur
    AND kunnr IN s_kunnr.
How to calculate date for month_start_date, so that it can display only current month records.
Thanks in advance

Workaround to display current month in calendar

Hello,
This is regarding Mr. Krishnamurthy's workaround to display current month in calendar. He asked us to run the URL with some name value pairs attached to get rid of the default "Next" button that the portal will create. But if i add this as a portlet how will i let portal know to run the portlet with these parameter values.
one way that i'm guessing is to add these parameters to the page and pass the values in the customization page. But can we do without doing this customization and everything. And also how do i display the next month of the calendar in the portal itself(i.e inline rendering). Presently if i click the next month link it takes me out of the portal. Eagerly waiting for suggestions/solutions. Thanks and regards,
--Ganti.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. Actually, I have the workaround to display the current month with Previous month / Next month capabilities and I thought maybe somebody wants to know about this workaround .

'Calendar UI' which will display current month's calendar in one line

Hi Experts,
I have to create a calendar in following way. Here I have to display calendar of current month for the employee. The entire month detail has to appear in one line. In fact it is needed for Leave Overview iView.
Manager needs to view the Leave details of all employees working in his department

I am not sure how to do it? Do we have any ready made UI element which we can use. I can see Date navigator. However it
displays the calendar in 4 rows.
Please help.

Hi Abhinav, Experts
Thanks. The design of my RFC will be like this:
1) Input Org Unit, Month, Year
2) Output
Pernr (datatype number 8)
Name (datatype string)
Day1 (datatype string)
Day2 (datatype string)
Day3 (datatype string)
Day4 (datatype string)
Day29 (datatype string)
Day30 (datatype string)
Day31 (datatype string)
3) The default value Day1, Day2 etc will be null
4) I will find out Leave Details. If Leave has been approved for say Day5 then I will populate Day5 = 'AP'.
5) I will write another logic to make the color of cell as 'Green' for Day5.
6) In Feb 2011, there are 28 days. There will be another logic to make the Day29, Day30, Day31 invisible for months like Feb 2011.
Please let me know if this approach is correct.
Please also let me know how to display day i.e. 01.04.2011 is Friday. In Calendar I have to display
                 1.4.2011 2.4.2011   3.4.2011
                 Friday      Saturday   Sunday

Display Current Month's calendar

Hello,
I have a calendar that will display several months worth of data. I would like the calendar to display the current month's data initially and allow the user to scroll back to previous months. Obviously, when you set the start_date and end_date you can only view the curretn month.
Is there a way to control the month that is initially displayed on the calendar?
Thanks,
Curt

Krishnamurthy,
This workaround does work quite well and I've implemented it successfully, but I do have a question:
I need to place this calendar into a page as a portlet. When I click the 'next,previous,current' buttons, it does take me to appropriate month, but opens up in a new page and I need it to stay as a portlet within the page. Have any ideas on how to implement this? I'm using Portal Release 2. Thanks for the help in advance.

Displaying current month with all empty months

None of the answers I've seen for showing current month in a calendar has given a solid answer. So, here is my question. My objective is to display all calendar months rather they are empty or not, plus I want the calendar to start at the current month. I added coding to display a next month and previous month button, so you should be able to click next or previous month from the current month showing. I have the "Show All Empty Months" checked in the Display Options under Common Options and the start and end date are empty. I have a bind variable in my coding that defaults to the current month but it will not show an empty month. I get the "no rows returned" situation because it doesn't have anything in it. Is there a solution to showing all empty months?
Also, has anyone found a solution to hide/remove the default Next/Previous buttons? I read in one of the replies that this would be fixed in a forthcoming release. Is this true?
Thanks for any assistance.

The calendar works on a sql query result. I had done something similar to what you are looking for by spoofing the sql query to return rows for all the months which I am interested in. I had a query like the following.
select *
from scott.emp a , ( select (trunc(sysdate) - 7910 + rownum) dat from user_objects ) b
where b.dat = a.hiredate (+)
Hope you can do something similar to this.

How to display three months by prompt

Hi,
I have a requirement in dashboard,
there is a prompt of month, if I select one month, there will show three months' data,
example, if I select '201108', it will display 201107,201108,201109,
If I use '+' or '-' in month calculation, it has a problem, like across two year, 201012,201101,201102.
So how can I realize this requirement?
thank you!

example, if I select '201108', it will display 201107,201108,201109,
If I use '+' or '-' in month calculation, it has a problem, like across two year, 201012,201101,201102.I know this is not straight forward but you need to think this in more logical way. I know you have acheived it till the point you are selecting either Jan or Dec month like 201112 OR 201101.
EG: SUPPOSE I HAVE SELECTED 201112
Here you need to create a MID report with 3 cols like CURR MTH, PRV MTH, NEXT MTH
In NEXT MTH apply logic like :
- Convert 'CURR MTH + 1' to CHAR
- EXTRACT 2 CHARS from RIGHT
- IF EXTRACT = 13 THEN CONCAT (EXTRACT 4 CHARS FROM LEFT --- convert to INT and add 1. This will give you 2012 and concat this with 01). Again change to INT
REPORT will give: 201112, 201201, 201111
EG: SUPPOSE I HAVE SELECTED 201101
In PRV MTH apply logic like :
- Convert 'CURR MTH -1' to CHAR
- EXTRACT 2 CHARS from RIGHT
- IF EXTRACT = 00 THEN CONCAT (EXTRACT 4 CHARS FROM LEFT --- convert to INT and minus 1. This will give you 2010 and concat this with 12). Again change to INT
REPORT will give: 201101, 201102, 201012
You just need to play with String and CAST function to get it done
Rest you know..Hope this helps

IW69 report not fetching all transaction data of current month.

Dear Guru Ji,
While doing testing IW69 report, i noticed that it is not displaying current month data. It is only get the data uptil last date of past month data in DEV & QA client.
I wonder why this is happening?
I tried using Malfunction start date & notification reference date input. But still the same result.
Please guide me, what is going wrong?

Hi,
The selection option 'notification date' is based on notification date (VIQMEL-QMDAT). Transaction IW69 is used to display notification items - when there is no item data in the notification nothing will be returned.

Current Month & Current Year Sales

hi,
How to get current month sales & previous month sales if sales measure is available for 2 years. I would like to display current month sales in one column and previous month sales in the second column and difference in the next column. For example, if i take this month as the current month, i have to display march sales in first column, february sales in second column and difference in third column. If you take a query designer, we restrict by month and display that month's value. Please advise.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
create two variables in your WebI report containing if then clauses which restrict your key figures to the actual (or previous) month. Use those variables instead of your key figure directly.
(NOTE: THIS IS PSEUDO CODE):
if [0CALMONTH]=CurrentMonth then [KeyFigure1] else 0
if [0CALMONTH]=PreviousMonth then [KeyFigure1] else 0
The third column can contain the difference between the first two variables.

Have prompt default to the current month?

One of my prompts displays a list of months; e.g., Jan, Feb, ... Dec. The user selects the month they want to report on. I need the prompt to default to the current month. Is this possible within Web Intelligence?

What is your data source for your webi report?
If you are using a universe, you can default the value by following these steps:
Select default date as today in WEBI
However if you are using BW then follow the steps in this blog

Hi,
If you install the variables from BC correctly and they are in active state, you can use them directly use them. check for this month the total values at info cube is ZERO or some value. as you told you are getting ZEROS for your input.and check the data at cube level based on your query design, apply all restrictions, fileters and see do you get any data at cube level and compare with report.

Hello All,
I got this resolved using the below formula to get either prior 3 months or the next 3 months from current date:
3rd month from current date:
=LastDayOfMonth(RelativeDate(LastDayOfMonth(RelativeDate(LastDayOfMonth(RelativeDate(LastDayOfMonth(CurrentDate()); 1));1));1))
Prior 3rd month from current date:
=ToDate(FormatDate(RelativeDate(ToDate(FormatDate(RelativeDate(ToDate(FormatDate(RelativeDate(ToDate(FormatDate(CurrentDate();"MM/yyyy");"MM/yyyy");-1);"MM/yyyy");"MM/yyyy");-1);"MM/yyyy");"MM/yyyy");-1);"MM/yyyy");"MM/yyyy")
and used these objects to restrict my date field(date object between "Prior 3rd month from current date:" and
"Prior 3rd month from current date:"
Thanks,
Vijay
