Else condition

Hi
I have a requirement, for the contact_typ='IA' then I need to display last name of the contact.
I wrote a case statement,
case when contact_typ='IA' then Last_Name End
but when executed in report I am getting
Mike---$100
peter--$200
IN
GF
SR
YT
I am also getting other types of contact_types in the end. For IA type it is displaying names, for other types it is null. But I only want contact_typ 'IA' in my report. Since I dint include else in my statement, I am getting that output, but knowing what to include in the else.Please help me.
Thanks

Hi SARU,
As per my understanding and the forum - you need display last name for the contact typ -= 'IA'
And, either you dont want to filter them in logical table source or write a case statement which shows nulls or 'N' and filter by 'N'.
And, you mentioned that you need it from back end.
So, Why dont you create another column in physical table (Database).
Say - I have table employee id, first name, last name, cont type
Now modify it by creating another extra column - display name
So, your table changes to employee id, first name, last name , cont type, display name
Now, based on your condition - update your display name column.
If, your unable to do that in database. Create a new physical table in physical layer - using select statement.
And, generate the table Emp Display -- which holds Employee id, Display name. And, display name gets generated by case statement.

this will definitely resolve your issue.
thank you.

IF - Else condition is not working properly in Bex Query Designer

Hi All,
I have a KF called KPI Value. Based on the KPI Value, my report display has to show by using the if-else condition. If the KPI value is '999999' then that particular KPI value has to display as 'X' against to that KPI No. Thats all my requirement. To achieve this I have created a formula based on the KF.
(KPI Value == 999999)*(1/0)+(KPI Value <> 999999)*(KPI Value)*1
Unfortunately, the above expression is shwoing the entire colmn as 'X' irrespective of the KPI value. i.e., logic is not working Could any one please suggest how to achieve this requirement. Your assistance is highly appreciable and very helpful. Thank you in advance!!!
Best Regards
Venkat...

AL,
I can visualize how condition should give results. The problem here is reality, I tired in my system with your formula and I got like as I mentioned.
If you observe closely your If..else formula, (KPI Value == 999999)*0+(KPI Value <> 999999)*KPI Value
If KPI Value == 999999 Result is 0, Else(Assuming) KPI Value <> 999999 Result is other nos like 1111, 2222 etc.
Actually it is not If..else, it is IF..ENDIF. Both conditions should get satisfied to give below:--
KPI value Formula
9999          X
1111         1111
2222          2222
9999          X
3333          3333
4444          4444
9999           X
In the course of adding both conditions results, system is not able to add 0+ Other Values in single column. So it is giving mixed values * like below:--
KPI value Formula
9999          X
1111           *
2222           *
9999          X
3333           *
4444           *
9999           X
Note: Once again I want to say it is not to prove you wrong. Let's get some clarity on the issue. I might be also wrong. But I want to know the actual result. If you can test it tomorrow and let me know..it would be great.

Suman

Procedure with out parameter in if-then-else condition

Hi,
I want to fetch the out parameter of a procedure inside another procedure that has if-then-else condition.
<<Proc1_start>>
if ..
then <<proc2_>> --- with out parameter
end if;
<<proc1_end>>
How to do this...
Thanks.

Ummm, the same way you would do it anywhere else?
Declare variable in proc1 to hold the output of proc2 and then call proc2.

If - else condition in RTF

Hello,
I have four columns. The value of the fourth column depends on the first three columns. Here are the conditions. Col1 is always 0 or less than 0.
1) if col1 = 0, then col4 = 0
2) if (col2 + col3) + col1 >0, then col4 = col1
3) if (col2 + col3) + col1<0, then a) if col2 + col3 >0 then col4 = col1 - (col2 + col3)
b) if col2 + col3 <0 then col4 = 0
How can I write the if-else statements for the above mentioned conditions?
Please Help!

I would suggest handling this at the query level using a case statement.

Implementing if then else condition

Hi! All
It would be very helpful if i can get answer of how to implement the condition below, using the functions available in graphical mapping editor....
I need to map 2 source fields to 1 Target field, based on the condition that field(source) is populated in the target field only if field 1 is null.
Source----->Target
part_id1----
>part_num(if part_id1 is null,then part_id2)
part_id2----
>
I tried using if then else function, it is working fine but errors out when part_id is null....need to make it work even when part_id1 or part_id2 is null.If both fields are null it should not populate anything.The boolean function is not accepting null inputs...
Please, let me know if there is a better way to implement this logic...Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Patrick

Jones,
Have this logic in your mapping:
part_id1>exists>and
part_id1>equals(textfunction)>null(take constant and dont put any value in it)>equals(text funciton)>false
Give the above two to if
Then in the then part give part_id1 and in the else part give part_id2.
So in the above if part_id1 exists and equals to null then part_id2 will be output and part_id1 exists and not equals to null then part_id1 will be the output and part_id1 doesnot exist then part_id2 will be the output.

How to acheive IF elseif elseif else condition using std mapping functions

How to perform the following mapping using standard graphical functions:
if (a = 1)
result.addValue("3");
else if (a = 2)
result.addValue("6");
else if (a = 5)
result.addvalue("7");
else if (a = 10)
result.addValue("11");
else
result.addValue(a);
can this requirement be acheived without using a UDF?
Regards
bhasker

UDF is better way to get this done.
you try like this using Standard function:
                                           Const 3    /THEN
                                  (A equals 1)   IF              (output of ifThenElse) ->TragetFiled
                                                        \ELSE
                                              /THEN     /(output of IfThenElse input to else of first If)
                                          IF               /
                                             \ELSE
Like wise for other conditions....
In else part of ifThenElse, give the output of second ifThenElse. here in ths case you need four ifThenElse.

How to incorporate If Else condition for MDX

Hi,
I am creating a webi report from a universe built on Bex Query.
Below are my queries:
1) Can we drill on objects created at report level?
2) I am having a dimension "Organizational Unit" which is a BW hierarchy having 6 levels (L1 to L5). Now, i want to modify the L2
    level such as it buckets the values of it starting with "Corp" else show other values of it. So i am trying to modify the L2 level
    dimension at universe level. Please tell me how to incorporate the If Else MDX condition in it. (condition is as : =If(Left([L02 Organizational Unit];5)="Corp ") Then "Corporate" Else [L02 Organizational Unit])
The version:

SAP BW 7.1 Patch Level 16
Pls advice <REMOVED_BY_MODERATOR>

Edited by: Pravender on Dec 10, 2010 8:06 PM

Thanks for the reply Oscar!!!
I wan't to club some members (starting with Corp) into one bucket and name it as "Corporate" for one of the hierarchy. so i was putting a condition =If(Substr([L2 Level];1;4)="Corp";"Corporate";[L2 Level]).
So how to use this condition at the universe level rater than using at report level because at universe level we need to provide MDX query for the same.
Can you please let me know the syntax put the above condition in terms of MDX recognizable query.
Hope you understood my point.
Many thanks in advance!!!

and t2.facility_id = t3.facility_id

I have created data template like following,
<sqlStatement name="Q_INVOICE">
               <![CDATA[
          SELECT Pack_Slip_R.invoice_query(:P_FACILITY_ID,:P_WAVE_NBR,:P_CONTAINER_ID,:P_DISTRO_NBR) from dual
                                                 ]]>
</sqlStatement>
But how does I create a element for the "t1.ship_city || ', ' || t1.ship_state || ' ' || t1.ship_zip" column in the oracle function. I normally create an element like following,
<group name="G_INVOICE" source="Q_INVOICE">
               <element name="CUST_ORDER_NBR" value="cust_order_nbr"/>
               <element name=":dest_id" value="dest_id"/>
</Group>
But how do i create element if a column name is kind of dynamic. Please help. I cannot Rename/change the Column in SQL Query. Please let me know If I could handle this whole logic in BI Publsiher.

LOV with IF else Condition

Hi All,
Item with LOV defined and i wnat to dispaly the lov based on :
for Ex
if :P1_item >=1
then
select ename d, ename r from emp;
else
select deptno d, deptno r from dept;
end if;
it is not working any idea?
I am getting error
ERR-1000 Unable to determine LOV from "declare function x return varchar2 is begin if :P1_from_value >=1

You need to have your LOV be based upon a function returning query..:Dynamic LOV - Function returning LOV query
Thank you,
