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.

Transparent partition and Dynamic Calculation

I've setup a target cube which collect the results from two different source cubes: one for historical data, the other one for the current period. I've put formulas on accounts in the target cube. Those formulas refer to both historical and current periods. Those accounts are also set in the source cubes as dynamic calculated. But even by setting them as stored members, the target dynamic calculated members do not take the precedence. How to solve this ? Stéphane

Stéphane<hr></blockquote> Stéphane, The quickest solution is to modify your mapping so that all of the dynamic calcs are in the target partition. In other words, limit the scope of the accounts dimension in the partition so that none the dynamic calcs are in the source of the partition. This means making a subset of the accounts dimension that includes only those accounts with data and not those that are dynamically calculated. If you have an accounts dimension with three members: COGS (loaded), Sales(Loaded), and Margin (dynamic calc: Sales - COGS), the source partition should only include COGS and Sales, not Margin, allowing the margin calculation to occur in the target cube.

Unknown calculation type [0] during the dynamic calculation

Dear Experts,
I've received the following error when I try to run a business rule (Run on save) attached to a data form:
"Unknown calculation type [0] during the dynamic calculation. Only default agg/formula/time balance operations are handled"
Thanks in advance..

Log into Oracle Support and have a read of
"Error "1012703 Unknown calculation type [0] during the dynamic calculation. Only default agg/formula/time balance operations are handled" During Calculation [ID 744529.1]"

Using the Previous Row in a Calculator Formula

Hello. I am using the calculator to create a new channel that is a custom filtered version of an existing channel. Unfortunately, I have not been able to identify the previous row entry in the channel. To make things easier, let's say my filter is a simple averager. Here is simple pseudocode for what I want to do:
New_Channel = (Existing_Channel[n] + Existing_Channel[n-1]) / 2
where n is the current row.
This is the calculator formula I have come up with:
ch("[1]/New_Channel") = (CHD(chnRow - 1, "[1]/Existing_Channel") + ch("[1]/Existing_Channel")) / 2 + CTNV(chnRow > 1)
Unfortunately, I think chnRow only returns 0.
Obviously, I am a beginner. I am open to other approaches to creating a new channel with a custom filter.
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi jbuttron,
What you need to do is to copy the channel and delete the first value from the copied channel-- then the Nth row of the original channel will line up with the (N-1)th row of the copied channel. You should also add the last value of the copied channel to the end of that channel as a new value so both channels end up with the same channel length. Now you can reference the channels with Ch("[1]/old") and Ch("[1]/new") in the channel calculator expression, assuming that the channel names are "old" and "new" respectively and that both are in the first group. You don't need a row variable in the expression now, which is good because there's no way to iterate a row variable in a channel calculator expression. The row iteration is implicit in the channel referencing Ch("[1]/new").

I Need Help to Access The Source Code From A Form to Know the Calculation Formula

Hi,
I Need Help to Access The Source Code From A Form to Know the Calculation Formula. The application is a windows form application that is linked to SQL Server 2008. In one of the application forms it generates an invoice and does some calculations. I just
need to know where behind that form is the code that's doing the calculations to generate the invoice, I just need to get into the formula that's doing these calculations.
Thank you so much.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. This is a view and [AmountDue] is supposed to be [CurrentDueAmount] + [PastDueAmount] - [PaidAmount]. The view is not calculating [PaidAmount] right . Below is the complete code of the view. Do you see anything wrong in the code ?
Thanks.

How to do dynamic calculation on PDF Form

Hi friends,
I need to to create a invoice page using Adobe PDF dynamic Form.
Business Requirement:-
1. User will select predifined product, Quantity, Rate and Amount would be calculated. Tax would be calculated from the below data.
2. I have a tax table
    0      - 1000    2%
    1000 - 2000   5%
    3000 - 4000   7%
Queries:-
- how to write script to calculate Tax based on above tax table data? How to ref. a table data?
- how to write script keeping in mind about adding new percentage in future?
Cheers,
Victor

The attached form will help you in understanding the dynamic calculations.
Reading the table data with changes in the future..
a) If your application is a standalone application, (means you distribute the .PDF file directly to the users instead of rendering the PDF based on request), then you may need to hard code the data inside the form itself. - In this case, if the table data changes, you need to change the PDF and re-distribute the form.
b) If you are rendering the PDF on the fly based on the request, then you have the option of reading the data from the table (you need to do this in the parent application which is invoking the rendering process) and make it part of the input XML at the time of rendering. You need to write your code to read the XML and do the calculations for each request. - In this case, if the table data changes, PDF will get the latest information beacause the latest info is available in the input XML.
Thanks

Dynamic calculation of prior 2 months

Hi all
Please help me out in solving this issue
In my quuery out put will be as follows
jun07 jul07 aug07 sep07
quantity 45 50 60 70
2m Offset quantity 45 50
Issue:
for 2m offset quantity we need to take quantity value two months prior.
Example For sep07 it should display value of Jul07.
I tried eith variable offset values. but they are taking current perid and substracting 2 months.
i need dynamic calculation for every month.
thanks
srteelatha

Hi,
By Using 2 structures in the query , that means you have to take a selection in the columns area and you need to take 6 selections under this structure, you will get a chance to use the cell editor concept.Here first 2 selections will be hidden.
that means first selection for APR.
2nd selection for MAY.
3 - June
4- July
5- Aug
6- Sep
In the cell editor concept ,you can overwriet the 2nd row values of the last 4 selections .That means 2nd row's 3rd(june) column value will be overwritten with 2nd row's 1st column value(APR) &
2nd row's 4th column value(July) will be overwritten with 2nd row's 2ndt column value(May) &
2nd row's 5th column value(aug) will be overwritten with 2nd row's 3rd column value(june) &
2nd row's 6th column value(Sep) will be overwritten with 2nd row's 4th column value(July) &

SQ00 Calculation Formulas?

How do I display calculation formulas in SQ00 for the local fields. I see a calculation represented by '1', followed by a condition. How do I display calculation formula number 1?
Thank-You.

Tom,
That '1' that you see is the forumla. Implied meaning: YOURVAR = 1.
In that space where you see the 1 is where the calculation would be entered. Replace the 1 with any combination of valid query functions/literals. For example, replace the 1 with, say, 1 + 2 * 10.
Read the Query print doc, http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/Print46c/en/data/pdf/BCSRVQUE/BCSRVQUE.pdf
starting on page 144.

Dynamic calculation of values at query runtime

Hello, Everybody,
I have situation in which I have calculate the value for characteristic at query runtime.
Query is based on Infoset SEMPLDATA. In Infoset I have fields u201CEmployee IDu201D, u201CBirth dateu201D, u201CAgeu201D dedicated as virtual variable, u201CNumber of Employeesu201D.
Then I execute query I enter a value for variable u201CDateu201D. After that query should calculate age for employee: for example ( variable u201CDateu201D u2013 u201CBirth dateu201D )/365. And query result is listed like this: u201CAgeu201D, u201CNumber of Employeesu201D.u201D Ageu201D is dynamic it depends on variable u201CDateu201D.
Iu2019m doubting will virtual characteristic help me. Could you give your suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Arunas Stonys

Hey. You can do this with a virtual characteristic. I'm not fond of them because of performance, but it should work. I am also assuming you have date of birth as an available field to do the calculation.
So, you could implement code in the variable user exit. After "Date" has been entered and the exit code is invoked you can pass that date to memory. Something like export "date" to memory ID xxxxx. I would create the memory ID object based on user ID running the query and date, or something like that. Then when you are processing in the virtual characteristic user exit, just do an import from memory, referencing the same memory ID as when you exported. Then you should be able to just do the date of birth - "date."
I have done this in the past to be able to retain user selection information for use in the virtual object calculations.
Just thought I would add a bit more here. You could also use formula variables based on your "Date" variable and "Date of birth" and do the calculation in a formula. Not completely sure about your situation, but that's another idea.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

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

          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,

Haha! I got all the formulas down except for the boxes but thank you so much!
I do have a new problem that just arrived, how can I get it to clear itself after I'm finished? So that it acts like a calculator and the columns are automatically cleared and the bars on hand turns into the total bars amount?
It sounds very difficult

Melissa,
I anticipated that problem and that's why I proposed the structure that I did.
Good luck,

Calculated formula for replacing a comma with a Semicolon in a text field

I need help replacing a comma with a Semicolon in a text field.
I have a field that has names separated by commas.
Ex: Dog, Cat, Bird, Horse, Eagle, Worm, Snake
I would like a calculated column that converts the field into: Dog; Cat; Bird; Horse; Eagle; Worm; Snake
I figured out the first three positions (Dog, Cat, Bird,) but I can't figure out the rest.
Using the formula below.
=REPLACE((REPLACE((REPLACE([Title],SEARCH(",",[Title]),"1"," ; ")),SEARCH(",",(REPLACE([Title],SEARCH(",",[Title]),"1"," ; "))),"1"," ; ")),SEARCH(",",(REPLACE((REPLACE([Title],SEARCH(",",[Title]),"1","
; ")),SEARCH(",",(REPLACE([Title],SEARCH(",",[Title]),"1"," ; "))),"1"," ; "))),"1"," ; ")
