Dynamic column output based on selection.

Hi all,
I have certain qualification select-options upon the selection-screen.
I have 5001 to 5012 range of qualificaitons.
If user select only 5001 to 5003....
I want only 3 columns ...or else if user wants to select 5008 to 5012 output should be have columns 5008 , 09,10,11...
I am displaying output in
mail format only
concanate 'COL1' COL2' 'COL2' TO STRING SEPERATED BY C=>LB.
loop at itab.
CONCATE ITAB-1 itab-2 itab-3 to Xstring.
endloop.
Thanks and regards

Creating a Dynamic Update Statement based on Select

hi,
i'm trying to create a dynamic update statement based on select statement
my requirment is to query a joint tables and get the results then based on the results i need to copy all the data and create an update statement for each row
for ex
the update statement should look like this
update iadvyy set SO_SWEEP_CNT = '1' where inst_no = '003' and memb_cust_no = 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa';
and the select statement like the following
select substr(key_1,11,9) account_no,sord_mast SO_SWEEP_CNT from
select acct_no,count(*) sord_mast from
(select from_acct_no acct_no,update_mast
from sord where FROM_SYS in ('DEP','INV') and TERM_DATE > 40460
union all
select to_acct_no acct_no,update_mast
from sord where TO_SYS in ('DEP','INV') and TERM_DATE > 40460)
group by Acct_no)
right outer join
invm
on
key_1 = '003'||acct_no
where sord_mast > 0;
so taking the above two columns from the above select statement and substitue the values as separate update statement.
is that doable , please share your knowledge with me if poosible
thanks in advanced

The standard advice when (ab)using EXECUTE IMMEDIATE is to compose the SQL statement in a single VARCHAR2 variable
Then print the SQL before passing it to EXECUTE IMMEDIATE.
COPY the statement & PASTE into sqlplus to validate its correctness.

Output based on selection

Hi all,
i'm working on MM report,
i got one field in selection screen as
PRODUCT TYPE = -

Dynamic Column Formula based on Prompt

Hi,
i've defined a prompt and a presentation variable associated called "Scenario". It can assume values "Actual" or "Budget"
My Subject Area contains vary dimensions and a fact table called "Productivity Measures" with following fields: "Productivity Actual" - "Productivity Budget"
I've created a report with an only field (Header: 'Productivity") which retrieves data from my "Productivity Measures" fact table.
Now i want that if Scenario value is Actual, the column formula of my field is "Productivity Measures"."Productivity Actual", otherwhise if Scenario value is Budget, the column formula of my field change dinamically to "Productivity Measures"."Productivity Budget". Is it possible? How can i do?

Hi user,
Why cant you write a case statement on the column defined i.e. when you select actual you get what you want and viceversa
eg:- CASE '@{scenario}'
WHEN 'Actual' THEN 'Productivity Actual'
WHEN 'Budget' THEN 'Productivity Budget'
ELSE 'Productivity Actual'
END
In case of prompt_column you declared variable right,you can call it there or directly use column name.
Hope it helps you with this.

To fetch column values based on selected month and year

Hi,
I have a requirement where I have 2 prompts Fiscal Year and month on a report.
Therefore when I select Year and the month I should get the ID's for the selected month till the first month of that fiscal year.
E.g By selecting July and year 2013 I should get all the id's in the report from Jan 2013 till July 2013.
How to acheive his in OBIEE. Please help.

what is the column for comparing these two dates ? I am considering CALENDAR_DATE
CALENDAR_DATE BEWEEN
CAST(concat('01-JUL-', (CASE WHEN pv_month in ('JAN', 'FEB', 'MAR') THEN CAST(((CAST(RIGHT(pv_Year),4) AS INT) -1) as CHAR) ELSE CAST((RIGHT(v_Year),4) as CHAR) END)) AS DATE)
AND
CAST(concat(concat(concat('01-', v_month),'-'),(CASE WHEN v_month in ('JAN', 'FEB', 'MAR') THEN CAST(((CAST(RIGHT(v_Year),4) AS INT) -1) as CHAR) ELSE CAST((RIGHT(v_Year),4) as CHAR) END) AS DATE)
This logic might work, just play around type casting..

Ex2 : User runs a report with selection (Company Code = 1208) and (Salesorg = 4001)
With this combination target value should be shown as 920 - only the 4th record should be taken into account and should display that only.
2.After the initial run when the user drilldown any character, the target value defined by the drilled down character should be seen.

Based on some assumptions and the date you have provided
Ex1 : User runs a report with selection (Company Code = 1208) and (Division = A1)
With this combination target value should be shown as 950 - only the 1st record should be taken into account and should display that only
--> select the key figure aggregation as - Maximum-
or if you can give the date/timestamp in the query as well- select the date and set it in the filter to be maximum- through a variable
2.After the initial run when the user drilldown any character, the target value defined by the drilled down character should be seen.
-->create a hierarchy on company code- division and place your category int he relevant divisions- when you activate the hierarchy it will show up as you have said

Hide Dynamic columns and remove space

I have an application that allows users to generate a Crystal report containing selected columns. A user is able to check which columns should appear on the report from a web page. I'm able to display and suppress the dynamic columns but the space for the dynamic columns that are not selected remains. How can I remove the space and have the columns move to the left?
I'm using VS 2003 and Crystal 10.

As Ludek mentioned you would need to use the RAS .NET SDK to completely remove the column from the report. What you could do is start with a blank report, only have your database info added, then build UP your report rather than remove items. The ReportObjectController has a method called AddByName() that will insert a field into your report. It will add the field from left to right with a small buffer space.
In order to use the RAS .NET SDK with Visual Studio .NET you'll need to upgrade to Crystal Reports 2008 or Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 (good free price here).

Displaying dynamic columns in the query output.

Hello,
Depending on current quarter output of the query would vary.
If current quarter is 'Q1'
O/p : InvQ1 Del BackQ1 BackQ2 BackQ3 BackQ4
If current quarter is 'Q2'
O/p : InvQ1 InvQ2 Del BackQ2 BackQ3 BackQ4
If current quarter is 'Q3'
O/p : InvQ1 InvQ2 InvQ3 Del BackQ3 BackQ4
If current quarter is 'Q4'
O/p : InvQ1 InvQ2 InvQ3 InvQ4 Del BackQ4
So, out of 9 columns, 6 columns would display at any given time depending on the current quarter.
Invoice of 4 quarters, Deliquency and Backlog of 4 quarters.
I am not getting any way how to display dynamic columns or hide unwanted/blank columns.
For the time being I have added all 9 columns in the query, and in the output unwanted columns shows blank.
Can anybody please suggest me how to display only 6 columns in the output depending on current quarter.
Thanks and Regards
Shilpa

Hello,
This shouldn't be too difficult. Assuming you have a variable with the selected quarter, you may choose to display Inv (whatever that is) for quarters 1 through variable, Del, and Back for quarters variable through 4. You also need a drilldown on quarter in the columns (after the key figure structure). You would probably need to restrict 'Del' on the variable as well if you haven't already done it.
Best regards,
Christoffer

Cannot use alias for dynamic column name in SELECT statement

Hi,
I want to retrieve values from several tables by using dynamic column & table name as below:
DATA: tbl_name(30) TYPE c VALUE '/bic/tbi_srcsys', " staticly initialized for this example
col_name(30) TYPE c VALUE '/bic/bi_srcsys'. " staticly initialized for this example
SELECT (col_name) INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_values FROM (tbl_name).
The internal table "it_values" does not contain a field named "/bic/bi_srcsys", instead it has another generic field "value" so that the above code can be applied to other tables. I tried to use alias (AS) as below:
SELECT (col_name) AS value INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_values FROM (tbl_name).
But this cannot work. I know that there are other ways to solve this problem, such as by using a single field in SELECT .. ENDSELECT and subsequently appending it to the work area and internal table as below:
SELECT (col_name) INTO (lv_value) FROM (tbl_name).
wa_value-value = lv_value.
APPEND wa_value TO it_values.
ENDSELECT.
Just wonder if there is any other more elegant workaround, because I might have several other fields instead of only one?
Thanks.
Regards,
Joon Meng

Hi Suhas,
thanks for the quick reply.
Sorry that I have not well described the structure of the internal table "it_values". This internal table contains several other fields (key, type, value, etc.).
I guess that the following code
SELECT (col_name) INTO TABLE it_values FROM (tbl_name).
works if the internal table only has one field (value) or the field "value" is in the first position, right?
In this case, I need to fill the "value" field of internal table it_values (ignore the other fields like type, key) with values retrieved from (col_name) of the DDIC table.
Looking forward to your reply.
BR,
Joon Meng

Dynamic bar chart based on LOV selected

Apex 2.1 with XE : running on windows xp.
I am trying to create charts based on selected criteria such as level 1, level 2 and level 3. If the user selects level 1 chart is expected to group level 2 and level 3 parameters else if the user selects level 2 criteria on top of level 1 then it should filter to the next category and so on. To make it simple I created three different queries which would generate the required graphs.
To achieve this I decided to use PL/SQL function that would return three different chart queries based on the LOV selection. Although the function works well for each of the queries they dont work with a if else condition based on LOV selection. So what is the problem with creating such as dynamic query. Can I use the "%" values of LOV in my if else condition if not why ?
Any alternatives ?

Well. The queries for the charts run independently well. I guess I might be using the if else condition in an improper fashion.
If the second LOV filter is not used.. I am matching the :LOV2 value with "%" and execute appropriate chart query based on single selection criteria and for the else case I use the other query and so on.
I wish to show the code but since I upgraded to 3.0.1 today my application page views don't render properly. The images are missing ..and whole page is missing for editing.

Dynamic column names in Oracle

HI SOS!! calling for help...
i am trying to query the following. I want to remove the duplicates in the ID, and combine them into one... While doing so, I want to keep the data as it is by creating dynamic columns reason_1, reason_2, reason_3 with their corresponding TIME. In case of same reasons, I want to add the TIME. The database is as follows:
ID     REASON     TIME
A     41A..........     27
A     93K..........16
B     89C...........3
B     93K...........7
B     48C..........     4
C     93K..........     24
C     93K..........     7
C     48C.........10
Expected Result is
ID     REASON_1......TIME_1.... REASON_2...TIME_2....REASON_3.........TIME_3
A........ 41A............ 27........... 93K............16
B........ 89C............ 3............ 93K............7...........48C.................. 4
C........ 93K........... 31.......... 48C..............10
Would be grateful if someone could try helping me out of this as early as possible.

You still haven't made it clear what the requirement is.
Is there a maximum number of reasons that can occur per ID? If so, you can code the pivoting of your data with something like:
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf

Also, as you're using 11g, you can use the new PIVOT query, for which you can find plenty of examples if you google or search these forums, or follow the FAQ link.
If you don't have any idea how many reasons there could be, then you really are looking at generating columns dynamically.
The problem with that is, because Oracle needs to know the SQL projection (see the FAQ link already provided), it has to know how many columns are going to be returned from a query before any data is fetched... but you are saying that the columns returned have to be based on the data itself. To do that you have two main options:
1) You query the data once to determine how many columns you are going to need and then dynamically build up a query in PL/SQL code with the right number of columns (or use one of the other dynamic methods shown in the FAQ)
or
2) You step back and ask yourself if SQL is really the best place to be trying to produce this output. Reporting tools are often better suited to this requirement as they are made to query the data back from a database and then pivot and layout the data based on the data returned.

Dynamically Pass the Column Name cursor. || Dynamic Column Name

Hi,
I need to dynamically pass the column name based on a Mapping table in a loop ( Right now i have hardcoded stuff )just like using Execute immediate.... Inside the procedure, I have commented as where i hit the problem.
Thanks for all of your time...
Thanks
Muthu

My scenario is little different, let me explain:
My columns will remain same but values changes (based on column formula) according to the selected prompt value
If I select 'Oct' from prompt then
Curr will contain data for 'Oct' only
Next1 will contain data for 'Nov' only
Next2 will contain data for 'Dec' only
Next3 will contain data for 'Jan' of next year only.
Later if I select 'Jul' from prompt then
Curr will contain data for 'Jul' only
Next1 will contain data for 'Aug' only
Next2 will contain data for 'Sep' only
Next3 will contain data for 'Oct' only.
I don't have different columns for each months but the columns are capable to reflect data for any month.
So, how can I reflect the column name as month name for which that contains data.

S Anand
