Events on Time.

Hi,
Can we invoke any events automatically at a specified time.
ie I want to keep a login logout system of employees.
So at every 7.00 AM I want to update a field with 2,1 or 0 according to time spent by the employ on the last day. Any method for this???

Gerd is exactly right. If you are using release 10gR1 or higher you should be using dbms_scheduler for automated background tasks. For prior versions you should be using dbms_job.
Here is some sample dbms_scheduler code for running a procedure at 7am every day
begin
dbms_scheduler.create_job(
job_name=>'my7amjob',
job_type=>'plsql_block',
job_action=>'myproc();',
repeat_interval=>'freq=daily;byhour=7;byminute=0;bysecond=0',
enabled=>true
end;

  • How can I see Calendar event END times at a glance?

    How can I display my Calendar event titles exactly as I type them? I do not want Calendar to remove duration from the titles of my events. Otherwise I can't see event END times at a glance in month view; only start times. How can I "trick" Calendar to just show my titles as I type them - as I always could before I upgraded. I used to be able to enter "Seminar 9am-5:45" and it would appear that way regardless of how or what I chose to enter (or not enter) for duration.
    I am running OSX 10.9.3.

    It's a bit weird, but if you type in the time info TWICE into the event title then Calendar uses/deletes one of them to populate the event details and leaves the other.

  • Can I find an iphoto events in time machine

    Using a macbook pro with Lion 10.7 how can I find an iphoto event in time machine hard drive back up.  When I look in picture folder for a back up date I see some individual pictures and an icon for iphoto library.  I thought clicking on that would show me iphoto application with the events just as it looks in current time only with the events of the past date.  It does not.

    Not really - you need to restore the iPhoto library then open it with iPhoto - iPhoto can not access TM backups - they have to be restored first

  • Found iCal events in Time Machine.  Now Lion only allowing me to import one event at a time.

    Upgrade my macbook pro over the weekend to Snow Leopard and then Lion.   I lost all my the majority of my iCal events.   Went to Apple store and they said that was rare and not sure how to restore my last back up from Time Machine on an external drive.   I've been spending hours trying to go through a bunch of threads on different MAC formums.  
    So I finally found my iCal events in Time Machine.   When I try to import these events, I am only allowed to highlight/import one event at a time.   This will take me forever to import years of missing data.   I basically have been using my iCal to journal for my 3 small daughters - first tooth, hair cut, etc.   So I am desperate to get these events back so I can get them printed and SAFE.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to import my ics files?   The Apple Store Genius had me tryng to import the corestorage.ics files.   2 or 3 of those files showed they were trying to be imported for over 4 hours.   I finally Forced Quit iCal.   I've tried this several times and same result. 
    The corestorage files were under user/library/application support/ical/sources
    I now located the calendar events user/library/calendars/ then a bunch of coded files leading to the events.  These events appear to be the ones I am looking for as I can read some of the files.   I have several years I want to import back into my working iCal.  
    Please help if you know how!!!
    Thank you,
    Very Upset Mama of 3 little girls

    Thomas - You are awesome - THANK YOU!  
    I did exactly what you said (CAN"T believe an Apple Genius did not know this) and I think all of my events got restored.  
    However, it duplicated all of the calendars - I have 6 (one for each family member plus an extra called home that we all have to do).   Not sure if I did something wrong, but do you have any ideas?  
    Also, the time setting must be wrong b/c I have events from 2008 showing up in 2012 - same day and time as the old sessoin - just out dated.    Do I need to manually change all of this?   Should I delete the Calendars folder again and try again?  
    Also, I read some where about deleting a iCal cache file.   Do I need to do this?
    I TRULY appreciate you taking the time to help people in this forum.   I have spent hours the past two days trying to figure this out.   Plus, now I need to figure out about upgrading my Office for Mac b/c I didn't realize I lost Office 2004 when upgrading to Lion.   
    Thank you for your time and support!

  • Can I filter News or Events by time (so that past items disappear from listings)?

    Can I filter News or Events by time (so that past items disappear from listings)?

    Thanks for your reply. I'm trying to find a way to divide events into two lists, "forthcoming" and "past events" which will automatically work without too much work for my client. If I set an event to "expired" is it still in the database and if so, can I list all expired events?

  • Statspack : Top 5 Timed Events - CPU time

    Hi,
    it seems that your database experiences a high SQL workload. The section of statspack report called "Top SQLs by Buffer Gets" might give you an idea what SQLs caused this CPU workload.

  • International travel and multiple-day events with time zones

    I can't see how I can set an international travel easily as one event, e.g. from 2010-01-11 20:30:00+11:00 to 2010-01-11 07:10-10:00. I can set both as in one Time Zone, but that is not what I want. I want to set as my itinerary from a travel agent says, e.g. the start and end in different Time Zones. Although I can enter the departure and arrival as two events, that is not what I want to do. The air travel is one event, not two.
    Also, I often want to set schedules for multiple-day international meetings using the local time of the meetings while my iCal is still in my own Time Zone, but this is not possible. As soon as I select All Day in a new event, the Time Zone option disappears. Of course, I can change my iCal Preferences to use the target Time Zone (instead of my local one) and then set the meeting schedule, but this is not what I want to do. I want to be able to select a different Time Zone for multiple-day events while I am in my own Time Zone.
    These are rather common problems in any internatioanl businesses I suspect. It would be really handy to tie iCal with travel itinerary applications. If this is possible, I also would be able to get the information directly from travel agents in iCal format and it is a great potential for developing such applications.
    Does anyone know whether these are possible in iCal or whether Apple may be working on it?
    I also can't find a Feature Request for Apple, to ask about it. Does anyone know where to find it?
    Thanks.

    I just didn't get the context here. Do you want to display multiple rows within one Outlook calendar event? If yes, I think it's impossible.
    Please reattach the sample which will be very helpful for others to understand your requirement, then possibly provide a solution.

  • Set automatic time cycle in a event catch timer

    I have a event catch timer on human task.
    I must set a time cycle using an expression;
    I have defined the variable "timeOut" where there is the value in day ( 2 day)
    I have tried to use expression --> Xpath and I followed as described in the Oracle documentation
    but the timer does not work
    How can I do?
    Thanks
    Elena

    Thanks.
    I have tried :
    1) I have defined in script task a variable expireTime (string type) = concat('PT','2','M') and in event catch time set "time cycle" -->"use expression" --> Xpath --> bpmn:getDataObject('expireString') , so is OK
    2) I have defined define in script task a variable timeExpire = 2 (string type) and in event catch time set "time cycle" -->"use expression" --> Xpath --> bpmn:getDataObject(concat('PT', timeExpire,'M')) , but in this case the process hangs
    In the second case, where do I wrong ?

  • Button Fire Event Multiple Times

    Hey everyone.  I've somewhat inherited a LabVIEW program for a project I'm working on.  I need to fire an event in an event structure 20 times in a row to fully collect my data.  Right now i just have the event structure connected to a slider so i just slide it enough and it completes the 20 events needed.  Is there a way I can make one button fire an event 20 times?  I need the while loop for the entire program to run during these 20 times so a simple loop around the event code won't work.  Any ideas?  Thanks guys.

    I'd use another solution.
    When the button is pressed, start a dynamic VI that does the aqcuisition.
    When the VI is done, it sends a user event (or a value (signalling) event to
    some control), so the main VI knows it's done. By doing this, you seperate
    the DAQ and the MMI, which is good. Both VI's are kept simple. Put the data
    in a buffer, or pass it in the user event data.
    Timing and event structures are difficult. It's very inconvenient to exectue
    an event case every X sec. without using a dynamic VI (or parrallel loop).
    Using the time out event has it's own problems. The TO event is called when
    no other event occured for the given period. So if you'd add a mouse over
    event (as an example) the TO case isn't called at all when the mouse
    moves...
    You could also start a dynamic VI that creates a user event (or value
    (signalling) 20 times at some interval, and then quits. But it's just as
    complex as a dynamic DAQ vi, and less elegant.
    Regards,
    Wiebe.

  • How can you view an event's time in the month mode of the calendar without clicking on it?

  • How do you alter the event start time

    The event start time always defaults to 5:00 pm. How do I change this.

    Thanks for replying. Yes my event time is responding as you pointed out, however I' putting on a number of events at about 4:00 pm that all start about 8:30 am so it would be very useful if the default time could be set for a specific time. Thunderbird is version 31.5.0, I only started using this programme a few days ago and downloaded the Lightening Calendar at that time. Could not find how to find the version of Lightening perhaps you could help there as well. Regards

  • My problem is that my iCal won't sync from my first-generation iPad to my computer, and the computer sends events multiple times back to the iPad... which is now full of duplicate events. I'm NOT on iCloud.

    I'm just an old lady who doesn't know a lot about this stuff, but I do love my iPad and miss my portable calendar! My problem is that my iCal won't sync from my (first-generation, cheaper of the two models) iPad to my computer, and the computer sends events multiple times back to the iPad... which is now full of duplicate events. I'm NOT on iCloud. I've had this problem for nearly a year now. My Really Really Smart son couldn't fix it for me.

    Can take some time.... how much time?
    There's no simple answer to that. My calendar goes back to 2004 and is moderately busy; it took around an hour. It's possible that you've hit a slow period on the server - it happens.
    In order for it to work, your calendars should show on the MobileMe site, they should be listed under your MobileMe login name in the calendar list in iCal (calendars listed under 'On My Mac' will not sync) and your MM account details have to be entered in iCal Preferences>Accounts (this should have happened by itself).
    If it's not working please see the page I linked to.

  • Can't create events with times between 10:01 and 19:59

    I've recently updated to OSX 10.4.9, and now can't create events with times that start with a '1'. This only seems to be a problem on the day British Summer Time begins on 25 March.
    I usually create my events in the month view, and input the start and end times by clicking in the time boxes and typing in the hours and minutes. However when I try to put in a start time of, say, 11:00, it puts in 21:00 instead. The only way around this seems to be to put in a time it will accept, like 09:00, and using the arrow keys to move it to the time I want. Or creating the events in the day view and clicking on the start time there.
    Any ideas?

    Looks like you have found a wee bug. I can replicate it. You could report it though OS X Feedback or better though ADC, but for the latter you have to register first.
    I usually create events by double-clicking in week view; often this gets the start time right, but if not then edit the start time in the info pane. Your bug is there with events created in day and week views too.

  • Calender event creation time.

    Is there a way to hack this program to show the event creaton time?

    As far as I can tell, there is no way to view the creation/last modified timestamp on an event (as is possible in iOS and other platforms). You should submit feedback directly to Apple to let them know that you would like to see this feature added to Calendar in OS X; the feedback form is here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html

  • I have absolutely no use for "Events" in iPhoto: can I get rid of this concept? I am importing photos maybe one or a dozen times a day and cannot avoid creating a new event each time. Or can I?

    As my long question implies (sorry, should have kept it shorter) I have a problem with being forced to have Events in my iPhoto'11 9.2.3 (629.52) on my MacBook 10.6.8. My habit is to unload the camera constantly, whether I have taken a single shot or a whole series. Each new addition creates an Event which actually bothers me!
    Is there a way of avoiding this? If I erase an event from iPhoto the photos will disappear from the Library it seems ... Please help with your advice. Thanks! Sigrid.

    Thanks, OT!
    When I look at my odd(?) habits of dealing with iPhoto anyone will see that I have a very simplistic approach: I never let one single Library get bigger than 300 or 400 photos, then back it up as is and make a separate, manual backup of the different albums as named by myself on an external HD. Then I delete the Library as such from my Mac but can reinstate it from the backups as I please. The backups are properly labelled, of course.
    I get dizzy when I read about libraries of thousands of photos, of keywords, ratings, smart albums etc. because this just wouldn't apply to my so-called system. So instead of using Faces and Places, my album names show clearly what's in them - "skies and scenery" Euskadi, "bugs and birds at Fancourt", "inventories", "people" (separate for my circle of people and characters from media), "my dog" etc., usually a bunch of 20 albums or so depending on my whereabouts. Quite manageable!
    I've been doing just fine with this method and would recommend it ... but others are much brighter ;-) and use the offered (and to me too advanced) features of iPhoto, if they prefer these. Now that I know how to get rid of Events by merging them into one, I at least feel a little freer there.
    Well, it's 1:25AM my time, gotta go ...

  • ICal doesn't open files (my own music files) when an event's time arrives.

    Hi apple community, I have a problem. I use to remember things by creating events in iCal with a music file added, but now I can´t, I have updated my iMac to Mavericks and iCal only remembers me an event but doesn't open the songs (with iTunes). (Some times I use events with music files to wake me up jejeje). How can I solve it? Thanks.

    I'd like to comment too here. I used to wake up all the time to music played in iCal, and before 10.8, I also used Applescript iCal events (all of this on my late 2011 Macbook Pro) in place of automator workflows. Since updating, my alarms simply haven't gone off, iCal not opening iTunes the way it should. I would be eager to find a solution.
