Dynamic Computation / Formula

Hi experts,
I want to know is it possible dynamic compute in ABAP.
Ex:
p_amt = computation
where computation = 1000 / 0.12
this is same logic with dynamic sql where in you have the option to put the table and condition dynamically. thanks

Hi Kiran thanks for reply but i am not using the dynamic computation in sql, the reason i am doing these because the computation will just be fetch in maintenance table and i'll just replacing the value please see some sample code:
data: c_val(20) type c value 'amount / 0.12',
      p_amt(16) type p decimals 2,
      p_amt1(16) type p decimals 2 value '1000'.
data: command type string,
       com1(16) type p.
concatenate 'p_amt1' '/' '0.12'
into command separated by space.
compute p_amt = (command). "--> unable to interpret expression (command).

Interactive Report Compute Field Creation Computation Formula

I'm trying to create a compute field in Interactive Report in APEX 3.
There are two fields: 'Plan Type' and 'Product Type'.
I want to create Compute Field - 'My Check'
Condition is as follows:
If 'Plan Type' field value begins with 'FY11 AA' and 'Product Type' field value ends with 'ABC' then 'My Check' field value should be 'CHECK' else 'OK'.
'Plan Type'-----------'Product Type'----------'My Check'
FY11 AA123---------123ABC-------------------CHECK
FY11 BB123---------123KKK--------------------OK
FY11 CC123---------123ZZZ--------------------OK
Would appreciate if you can write for me a computation formula for the case above.
Thanks,
Guy

Hi Jari,
Thanks for your formula.
When I tried that, I got error as below.
Actual formula entered:
case when BH = 'Y' then
case when SUBSTR(T,1,7) = 'FY11 OU' then
case when SUBSTR(AL,-3) = 'REC' then
'CHECK'
else 'OK' end
else 'OK' end
else 'OK' end

Dynamic computation

hi all,
i need to compute the result given a formula that is extracted from a table with character field. sort of converting the text into a numeric formula. i've been trying to use macro, compute and class but to no avail as it always produce dump due to conversion (char to numeric). my last recourse would be to dynamically create a program. is there an easier way? your help/input would be greatly appreciated.
ex.
table: ztab.
field: fld1(120).
ztab-fld1 = ( PRICE_AMT / 0.1 ) * 0.98
the PRICE_AMT is to replaced with a corresponding value.
Thanks,

Hi emcc
Here is a snippet of code which I roughly wrote. I hope it satisfies your requirement. It still needs some optimization. Here, the program replaces all occurences of '&' with the input "ip_par1" in the formula input via the parameter "ip_form". Then it generates a subroutine-pool to calculate the formula. You may extend it to support more than one parameter. As I remember, in 4.7+ there is a new statement as "REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF <str> IN <str> WITH <str>" which may replace the DO-loop .

Execution order: Business Rule vs. Dynamic Member Formula

Hi,
I have a problem with a calc rule that calculate percentage of a list of account in comparison with other account (Ce10) as below
FIX (list of account restricted here, @IDescendants(YearTotal),....)
"Percentage"
(IF (@ISUDA(Account,"Ce10"))
"Percentage" = "NA CE"/"NA CE"->"CE10"; //Here the percentage member and "NA CE" member in the same dimension
ENDIF)
ENDFIX
When I run the rule, the result is ok with the Months. But in the Quater and YearTotal, it's automatically aggregate to a wrong result as the YearTotal is dynamic calc (e.g: Jan: 10%; Feb: 10%; Mar: 10% => Q1: 30%). So I thought it because the Rule is executed first (Q1=10%) but after that, the dynamic aggregation of Year is executed so Q1 is aggregated as 30%.
So how to fix Q1 = 10% as expected result. I did study on two pass calculation but it seem can not apply on this isssue. I searched for "back calculation" also but I still didn't find any solution for this.
Please help me on this.
Thanks.

Thanks JM for quick responding. The problem here is "Percentage" is not a account's member.
To make the question more clearly, I'll explain the rule:
There's a list of account A: A1, A2,...,An
and a list of account B: Ce10, Ce20, ..., Ce90
There is a mapping n-1 between these two lists. For example, A1, A2 is mapped to Ce10, A3 to A5 is mapped to Ce20 and so on. I do it by assigning UDA (e.g: A1 {Ce10}, A2 {Ce10}...)
And the rule is used to calculate percentage of accounts of list A in comparison with equivalent account in list B. So the percentage can not be account member. It's the reason why I can not use member formula and two pass calc here.

Huy Van

Inventory forecast help - dynamically creating formulas?

Post Author: ddenise
CA Forum: Formula
I am writing a report that reconciles sales orders to inventory - essentially, group sales orders by the scheduled production date, list out all the parts that are needed and forecast the impact on inventory, highlighting any areas where inventory is foretasted to go negative. The results right now look like this:                               Part          In Inventory          Needed         Inventory RemainingOrder Number 567     Product Number 311187          Part Number 8111234          100                  5                  95          Part Number 8111235      Product Number 311189          Part Number 8111234          100                 6                  94
          Part Number 8112235 You can see the problem is that once I calculate "Inventory Remaining", the next instance of part 8111234, should have an "In Inventory" value of 95, NOT 100, but 100 is what is stored in the database. The next time that part number is used, the database value is pulled and 100 is displayed. A running total or summary won't work because they cannot be used on 2nd pass formulas/variables; "Inventory Remaining" is a formula evaluated on the 2nd pass.The result that I NEED to come out would be:                                Part          In Inventory          Needed         Inventory Remaining
Order Number 567
     Product Number 311187
          Part Number 8111234          100                  5                  95
          Part Number 8111235
      Product Number 311189
          Part Number 8111234          95                  6                  89
          Part Number 8112235 So.... I am thinking that I need to create a formula that does the following while records are printed:Check to see if a variable whose name is equal to the part number that is being printed (in this case "8111234") and if it doesn't exist, then create it, setting it's value to what is in the database (in this case "100")Use the variable's current value, subtract the quantity of those parts that are needed for the current record being printed and updated the variable's value to this difference.If the variable does already exisit, then use it's current value to display in the "In Inventory" column and,Use the variable's current value, subtract the quantity of those parts
that are needed for the current record being printed and updated the
variable's value to this difference.What this would do is essentially, dynamically create variables that can be used for display and other evaluation and update the particular variable that is related to the part number that is being printed. Has anyone done anything like this before? I'm sure I'm not the first to encounter this situation. Also, if there are other ways to solve this problem that Crystal can handle, please advice - I cannot seem to find any other solution. Regards,

Compute formula for forecasting

Hello,
I want to compute the formula for reorder point in the system which includes min inventory + safety stock + daily consumption while doing forecasting for a material.
The automatic reorder point type MRP is set for the material masters & forecasting is done for the same.
But when the reorder point is computed through system , it does not match with the manually computed reorder point.
Can anyone tell me any method to incorporate this manual formula into the system?

Retrieval impact of complex dynamic calc formulas

Hi,
How do you debug a dynamic calc member formula (complex), to tune it for high performance.
Thanks!

If you are using this member in any of the standard reports, Run the report including and excluding this member.
Then you can come to a conclusion whether it is acceptable or not.
If you feel it is not acceptable.
Check the formula for any if conditions or formulas are pointing to a group of sparse members. It requires to load multiple blocks for condition validation.
Recheck and try to minimize. Still problem persists, make the member stored and calculate in the batch.
Read the below link.

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.

Dynamically calculating formulas.......

hi buddies......I wanna know that is it possible in Forms-6i that formula or summary items values should be calculated as soon as I type the values in a numeric field??? otherwise I see that formula columns adjust their values after a user leaves the field on which formula or summary is based, but its annoying if a user saves the form before leaving that field, so it commits without precise values in forms.
plzzz reply me soon,good bye.

The formulas are calculated as soon as you indicate you are done typing -- but how can Forms tell you are done?
As soon as the user does anything to indicate the numeric entry is completed, Forms calculates the summaries. This can be a Tab or Enter keystroke, clicking on a field or button with the mouse, or committing. I think if you will check carefully, when you commit your form, those formulas are calculated immediately before any actual commit processing occurs. The screen display may not be refreshed with the new values until the commit completes, but for all internal processing, the new values should be available.

Problem to solve: Numbers 3 will not dynamically repeat formulas

I am using numbers 3. When I create a formula in a cell and drag it to duplicate in multiple cells is looses it's references. Any solutions? I used to be able to do this in Numbers 2.
Here is the formula I am using...
=SUM((−E1207,(OFFSET(I1207,−1,))))
=SUM((−E1208,(OFFSET(I1208,−1,))))
=SUM((−E1209,(OFFSET(I1209,−1,))))

Hi camann,
What do you mean by "loses its references"? Are you able to fill down by dragging the yellow dot:
But the formula is giving different results from what you got in Numbers 2.3?

@ATTRIBUTESVAL works properly in Calc script but not in Member Formula.

We are using Essbase 11.1.2 –
"Global_Period" is a Dynamic Calc Member. Below is its Member Formula:
"ProjType " is an attribute (text) dimension.
"Global_Period" ="ValidAccount";
IF (@ISLEV ("Total_Expenses", 0) AND @ISMBR("HSP_InputValue") AND @ISLEV ("Version",0) AND
@ISMBR("No_GL_Account") AND @ISLEV ("Scenario",0) AND @ISLEV ("Years",0) AND @ISMBR ("Local")
AND @ISLEV("Tot_Org",0) AND NOT @ISIDesc ("Service_Division") AND @ISLEV("Tot_PRJ",0) )
"Global_Period"->"No_GL_Account"-> @CURRMBR ("Projects") =
1* "ValidAccount"->"Global_Version" ->"Global_Scenario"->&Budget_Year->"Global_Entity"->
"No_GL_Account"->"HSP_InputValue"->"Local"->
@MEMBER(@NAME(@CONCATENATE ("Proj_",@ATTRIBUTESVAL("ProjType"))));
ENDIF
The above Member- Formula is failed to work when opening a Data Form that contain "Global_Period".
The error messages in the log file are as follow:
[Thu Mar 1 16:55:39 2012]Local/Projects/Plan1/admin@Native Directory/1122748736/Error(1200370)

@MEMBER(@NAME(@CONCATENATE ("Proj_",@ATTRIBUTESVAL("ProjType"))));
SET CREATENONMISSINGBLK OFF;
ENDFIX
For many reasons we prefer to use the Dynamic Calc Formula for "Global_Period".
As result of some checking I discover that the problem is with the function @ATTRIBUTESVAL,
because the formula has worked fine when I replace the @ATTRIBUTESVAL with a string.
Please help, what is the right way to write the formula in order to make it work.
Thanks
Tami Kedem

Dear Cameron Lackpour,
Thank you very much, for your reply.
I'd given it a try, but it didn't help.
The purpose of this formula is as follow:
We holds 1's (ones) for allowable combinations of "Project_Type and Accounts", namely, each project type has different list of accounts that are allowed for input.
I need to populate the input 1's to all projects (and their children) according to its "ProjType".
The Data forms has periods in columns, thus by putting "Global_Period" (Hide) as the first column, and use "Suppress Missing rows" - for each project (on the "Page") , the form will show just the allowable Accounts in rows.
(we have around 300 Accounts, 50,000 members in Project dimension and around 25 Types of projects).
Please help.
Thanks!

Dynamic loading of an image - Works in designer, not in webapp

Hi there,
I have looked through the forums for an answer to my question and thought that I had found an answer to my question until it came time to publish the report to my web application.
My report uses a dynamic image formula using the Format Graphic > Picture > Graphic > X-2 buttons. Unlike other suggestions on the forum, the image isn't stored anywhere i.e. on a network, C drive. Instead my web application (a special design program) generates images itself using parameters from a http request.
In the Crystal Reports 2008 designer this works fine and the image changes with changes in the parameters I give in the http request in the formula.
Example request;
"http://localhost:8080/demoMYSQL/servlet/em.cabbench.CabBenchSrv?requestType=getStaticDrawing&imageType=2D&scale=1.6&solid=1&design=MV-120-XLPE-001"
However, when I deploy the report to my web application, it appears as though the formula isn't getting validated as the above request is not logged in my server logs and the default image shows up.
The report is displayed using JSP. I can show this is needed.
Any ideas
Much appreciated
Nick Hirst

OK Here goes,
Formula:
"http://localhost:8080/demoMYSQL/servlet/em.cabbench.CabBenchSrv?requestType=getStaticDrawing&imageType=2D&scale=6&layerscale3d=0.03&extrusionlength3d=0.4&corelabellevel=1&solid=1&userid=admin&password=admin&design=" + {designHeader/header/headerAtt.design}
I dont think the connection is a problem. The problem was found using the application on a server, however I am now using my test environment which is a local Apache tomcat service and the problem still occurs.
I am publishing to the web using the JRC component in JSP files. Its a bit technical so they are explained here. Bold are my comments posted here.

Data not replicated with partition and dynamic calc

HI
I am using Essbase 11.1.2.1.
I want to use a replicated pratition wetween two Essbase BSO applications.
But in my source application, I have to send an account ACCOUNT (level 1) with several stored members and 1 dynamic calc member with formula. Due to this Dynamic calc account, the partition doesn't work (data are not replicated).
How could I do?
Thanks
Fanny

You're right, dynamic calc account are not issues. I am using them in partition.
But py issue is there :
The source dimension is like this :
TAX (Dynamic Calc)
- 6xxxxxxx
- 6yyyyyyy
- 6zzzzzzz (Dynamic Calc) = formula
The target dimension is like this :
TAX
And so I need to send TAX (Source) to TAX (cible).
I don't think it is possible, but I would like a confirmation before using something else.
I hope it is clearer now.
thanks
Fanny

Dynamic Calc and Roll ups

I have 11 members that are used for grouping stock. They are: DEAD_STK_3M, DEAD_STK_6M, NEW_NO_SALES, STK_NEGATIVE, STK_0_1M, STK_1_2M, STK_2_3M, STK_3_4M, STK_4_5M, STK_5_6M, STK_6M_PLUS. I have put a dynamically calculated formula in member "STK_0_1m" to work out where the Closing Stock amount should be placed. The formula works perfectly at Product Level 0 but when you go up it doesnt roll up correctly.Eg. Closing Stock = 6000. Product level 0(Zero):DEAD_STK_3M = 10DEAD_STK_6M = 0NEW_NO_SALES = 500STK_NEGATIVE = 0STK_0_1M = 3000STK_1_2M = 2000STK_2_3M = 90STK_3_4M = 400STK_4_5M = 0STK_5_6M = 0STK_6M_PLUS = 0If I go to level 1 it will put the closing stock under a single member and not roll them up individually.Closing Stock = 6000. Product level 1:DEAD_STK_3M = 0DEAD_STK_6M = 0NEW_NO_SALES = 0STK_NEGATIVE = 0STK_0_1M = 6000STK_1_2M = 0STK_2_3M = 0STK_3_4M = 0STK_4_5M = 0STK_5_6M = 0STK_6M_PLUS = 0I guess this has something to do with calc order but I am not sure where to start. Hope someone can help.Simon

Added in 2 Pass Calc and still doesnt roll up individually. I have been battling this for ages now. In another member in the same cube all works perfectly and rolls up correctly but I cant see where the difference is. Thanks for the suggestion thoughSimon
