EXTRACT VALUES WITHOUT DUPLICATES

How can I extract data without duplicates??
I can't use DISTINCT....
Thank you

Hi,
DISTINCT and UNIQUE keywords performs same in SQL and no difference in usage. Just write,
SELECT UNIQUE <column_name>
FROM <table_name>
WHERE ...

How to display all distinct values without duplicates.

Hi Pros,
I want to present a values list in dashboard, but this list have much duplicates, so when dispalying, I want to display all distinct values without duplicates.

Hi,
You can avoid the duplicates from the source side or use a filtered row option in the component.

[Forum FAQ] SharePoint 2013: Extracting values from a multi-value enabled lookup column and merge values to a multi-value enabled column

For some business requirements, users want to extract values from a multi-value enabled lookup column
and add items to another list based on each separate value. In contrast, others want to find duplicate values in the list and merge associated values to a multi-value enabled column and then
add items to another list based on the merged value. All of these can be achieved using SharePoint Designer 2013 Workflow.

How to
extract values from a multi-value enabled lookup column and
add items to another list based on each separate value using SharePoint Designer 2013.
For example, they have three lists as below. They want to
extract values from the Destinations column
in Lookup2 and add items to Lookup3 based on each country and set Title to current item: ID.
Lookup1:
Title (Single line of text)
Lookup2:
Title (Single line of text), Destinations (Lookup; Get information from: Lookup1 in Title column).\
Lookup3:
Title (Single line of text), Country (Single line of text).
Important action
1. Loop Shape: SharePoint Designer 2013 support two types of loops: loop n times and loop with condition.
Loops must also conform to the following rules:
Loops must be within a stage, and stages cannot be within a loop.
Steps may be within a loop.
Loops may have only one entry and one exit point.
2. Utility Actions: It contains many actions, such as ‘Extract Substring from Index of String’ and ‘Find substring in String’.
Three scenarios
We need to loop through the string returned from the look up column and look for commas. There are three
scenarios:
1. No comma but string is non-empty so there is only one country.
2. At least one comma so there is at least two or more countries to loop.
3. In the loop we have consumed all the commas so we have found the last country.
Things to note
There are two things to note:
1. "Find string in string (output to Variable:index)" will return -1 if doesn't find
the searched for string.
2. In the opening statement "Set Variable: Countries to Current Item:Destinations" set the return
field as "Lookup Values, Comma Delimited".
Steps to create Workflow
Create a custom list named Lookup1.
Create a custom list named Lookup2, add column: Destinations (Lookup; Get information from: Lookup1 in Title column).
Create a custom list named Lookup3, add column: Country (Single line of text).
Create a workflow associated to Lookup2.
Add conditions and actions:
Start the workflow automatically when an item is created.
Add item to Lookup2, then workflow will be started automatically and create multiple items to lookup3.
See the below in workflow History List:
How to merge values to a multi-value enabled column and add item to another list based on the
merged value using SharePoint Designer 2013
For example, they have three lists as below. They want to find duplicate values in the Title column in
Lookup3 and merge country column to a multi-value enabled column and then add item to lookup2 and set the Title to Current Item: Title.
Lookup1:
Title (Single line of text)
Lookup3:
Title (Single line of text), Country (Single line of text).
Lookup2:
Title (Single line of text), Test (Single line of text).
Important actions
"Call HTTP Web Service"
action: In SharePoint 2013 workflows, we can call a web service using a new action introduced in SharePoint 2013 named Call HTTP Web Service. This action
is flexible and allows you to make simple calls to a web service easily, or, if needed, you can create more complex calls using HTTP verbs as well as allowing you to add HTTP headers.
“Build Dictionary"
action:
The Dictionary variable type is a new variable type in the SharePoint 2013 Workflow.
The following are the three actions specifically designed for the Dictionary variable type: Build Dictionary, Count Items in a Dictionary and Get an Item from a Dictionary.
The "Call HTTP Web Service" workflow action would be useless without the new "Dictionary" workflow action.
Things to note
The
HTTP URI is set to https://sitename/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('listname')/items?$orderby=Id%20desc and the HTTP method is set to “GET”. Then the list will be sort by Id in descending order.
Use Get
d/results(0)/Id form
Variable: ResponseContent (Output to
Variable: maxid) to get the Max ID.
Use Set
Variable: minid to Current List:ID to get the Min ID.
Use Copy from
Variable: destianation , starting at
1 (Output to
Variable: destianation) to remove the space.
Steps to create Workflow
Create a custom list named Lookup1.
Create a custom list named Lookup2, add column: Test (Single line of text).
Create a custom list named Lookup3, add column: Country (Single line of text).
Create a workflow associated to Lookup3.
Add a new "Build Dictionary" action
to define the http request header:
Add a Call HTTP Web Serviceaction, click on
this and paste your http request.
To associate the
RequestHeader variable, select the Call action property,
set the
RequestHeaders property to
RequestHeader:
In the Call action, click on
response and associate the response to a new
variable: ResponseContent (of type Dictionary).
After the Call action add Get item from Dictionary action to get the Max ID.
Add Set Workflow Variable action to get the Min ID.
Add Loop Shape (Loop with Condition) to get all the duplicate titles and integrate them to a string.
Create item in Lookup2.
The final Stage should look like this:
Start the workflow automatically when an item is created.
Add item to Lookup3, then workflow will be started automatically and create item to lookup2.
See the below in workflow History List:

GREAT info, but it may be helpful to note that when replacing a portion of the variable "Countries" with a whitespace character, you may cause the workflow to fail in a few specific cases (certain lookup fields will not accept this and will automatically
cancel). I only found this out when recreating your workflow on a similar, but much more complex list set.
To resolve this issue, I used another utility action (Extract Substring from Index of List) to clear out the whitespace. I configured it as "Copy from
Variable: Countries, starting at
1 (Output to Variable: Countries), which takes care of this issue in those few cases.
Otherwise, WOW! AWESOME JOB! Thanks! :)

How to get the day as numeric value without formatting the date?

Hello,
to reduce the costs of a sql-statement I need to get the day of a date-value as number (to compare it to a numeric value) without any formatting. Every formatting results in a full table scan of the table with the date field. Is there any function to solve this problem?
Oracle version is 11g.
Thanks Carsten

and T2.Inactive = 0
The explain plan shows a full table scan on T2. With EXTRACT(DAY FROM T2.Date2) there is no difference.It probably would and should in any case.
Look at your predicates, which of them would reduce the resultset to a fair size compared to the total number of records in the table?.
- You may have a huge number of records when you say date less than
- Of these perhaps one seventh have day = 1
- My guess is that most have Inactive = 0
Besides, you should not rely on implictit char to date conversion, always use TO_DATE
How many records are in the table? - How many will that query return?

Receiver Determination, condition to select receiver doesn't extract values

Dear all!
I have SAP PI 7.1
I am facing problem in Receiver Determination while using Condition to select receiver based on the values in the payload.
I need, if Identificador = 1 then receiver BC_1 and if Identificador = 2 then the receiver BC_2
My payload has the value:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:p1="http://pruebas.endesa.es/AME4S_2">

But, the trace shows following:

<Trace level="2" type="T">......extracting values found: 0 </Trace>
I tried with double quotes, simple quotes, without quotes...
I tried too with a Receiver Rule (with context) and local rule with xpath....
Can someone please advise?
Thanks in advanced!!

Hello,
/p1:MT_WS_SENDER_Q/IDENTIFICADOR = 1
Can you try //p1:MT_WS_SENDER_Q/IDENTIFICADOR = 1 ? I'm sure I read it somewhere here in SDN regarding the xPath difference for stateless and stateless XI 3.0 compatible version is an additional /. It's worth to try
Hope this helps,

Extracting Values of a Field from a Database Table in SAP ECC System

Hi,
I downloaded Extracting Values of a Field from a Database Table in SAP ECC System Using MII 12.0
senario from sdn. I'm trying to do that senario in MII 12.05. But I have problem with section 6 in page 7 (you can supply senario from sdn)
"6- Under the loop of Repeater, use action u2018Rowu2019 to append just the string part of the WA which will display only values for field u2018Batchu2019"
I did not find WA elemen in Output element of Repeater_0
How can I create WA element?
Thanks.

Cemil,
Set up a SAP JCo Interface action block. Use the RFC name RFC_READ_TABLE.
In the link editor map the table to "MARA", set RowCount to something small (20 is good sample size) and create an xml transaction property named FIELDS and copy the following into it:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><FIELDS>
      <item>
        <FIELDNAME>MATNR</FIELDNAME>
        <OFFSET/>
        <LENGTH/>
        <TYPE/>
        <FIELDTEXT/>
      </item>
      <item>
        <FIELDNAME>MTART</FIELDNAME>
        <OFFSET/>
        <LENGTH/>
        <TYPE/>
        <FIELDTEXT/>
      </item>
      <item>
        <FIELDNAME>BSTME</FIELDNAME>
        <OFFSET/>
        <LENGTH/>
        <TYPE/>
        <FIELDTEXT/>
      </item>
      <item>
        <FIELDNAME>XCHPF</FIELDNAME>
        <OFFSET/>
        <LENGTH/>
        <TYPE/>
        <FIELDTEXT/>
      </item>
      <item>
        <FIELDNAME>DATAB</FIELDNAME>
        <OFFSET/>
        <LENGTH/>
        <TYPE/>
        <FIELDTEXT/>
      </item>
    </FIELDS>
Then link the Transaction.FIELDS to SAP_JCo_Interface_0.Request{/RFC_READ_TABLE/TABLES/FIELDS}. You may run into problems with two other fields and optionally they can be removed (set link type to remove xml). I usually remove them initially for testing. The two fields are:
SAP_JCo_Interface_0.Request{/RFC_READ_TABLE/INPUT/NO_DATA}
SAP_JCo_Interface_0.Request{/RFC_READ_TABLE/INPUT/DELIMITER} (or you can set this to something like a semicolon,";" or tilda,"~". I find it easier to caclulate position by length, but that is my own idiosyncrasy.)
Once you get this one working, we can explore how to do filtering on the dataset. Your output should be something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RFC_READ_TABLE>
<INPUT>
    <DELIMITER />
    <NO_DATA />
    <QUERY_TABLE>MARA</QUERY_TABLE>

Add a repeater sourced on:
SAP_JCo_Interface_0.Response{/RFC_READ_TABLE/TABLES/DATA/item}
Link your repeater output to a tracer with this:
Repeater_0.Output{/item/WA}
What you will see in each tracer message is a single line of data with all the fields contents concatenated together. You can look up what each field in the string represents by the length of the field as returned in the Response segment of the RFC_READ_TABLE rfc. Then you can parse out the data you are interested in.
Give this a try and let me know how you succeeded.
By the way, I could not find the scenario you referred to. Can you post a link?

Mike

Things to remember (that you should know by now)
Please remind us of which version of 11g you are using in this post and all future posts.
Look at the FAQ under your sign-in name to see how to use the tag to retain formatting of your code as you have seen our examples to you look like.
We can't see your screen or your data so how about the error message and some data from your table?
Please start using either XMLTable or XMLCast/XMLQuery as odie_63 as shown you.

</rss>
I want to use XSLT to extract value of a XML node with namespace <job:location>, and the returned value should be string 'Sydney - Inner Suburbs & CBD'. I tried a few XSL code below, but failed with error or nothing was returned.
<xsl:value-of select="job:location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
<xsl:value-of select="job/location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
<xsl:value-of select="job\location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
<xsl:value-of select="location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
This might be an easy question for you, but I would appreciate if anyone can help.

Hi Suncorp IT Learner,
We need to tell the XSLT that some elements are in another namespace. Copy the xmls declarations for the prefixes you need to use. Then use the xsl format as:
<xsl: value-of select=”job:location/@PUReferenceID”/>
In following issue, Chriztian has a good explanation:

How to add 5.1 track without duplicate timelines?

To add a 5.1 track to my project I duplicate the movie timeline and change the stereo track for the 5.1. The problem is the program duplicate the capacity (3,50gb are now 7gb). I don't know if I can add the 5.1 as a second track in the same timeline to avoid the increasing in gb.
is possible to add the 5.1 in a second track of the movie timeline? and how can I link a button in the menu to link to the movie with this second 5.1 track?
If this isn't possible, how can I do a 5.1 option without duplicate the weight?
sorry my poor English!
Thanks

Jeff, if I have one timeline with two audio tracks (stereo and 5.1) and the video track. If I have two buttons, stereo and 5.1, how I link the button to the video track with it correct audio track avoiding the other? I need to link the button direct to the audio track and this link also include the video track?
Thanks for your help

Random numbers without duplicates

Hello,
I'm having trouble locating an explained example for selecting a set of random numbers without duplicates. Specifically, I'm working on this example from Ivor Horton's Beginning Java, chapter 3.
3. A lottery program requires that you select six different numbers from the integers 1-49. Write a program to do this for you and generate five sets of entries.
This is not homework, I'm just trying to teach myself Java to eventually work my way up to servlets and JSPs.
This is what I have so far. I tried to use array sorting but it didn't work (the first three numbers in my entries was always 0), so I commented out that part. I've included sample output after the code. I don't necessarily need the exact code although that would be nice; I just need at least an explanation of how to go about making sure that if a number has been picked for an entry, not to pick it again.
Thanks for any help,

NOTE: the array reference to [ i ] seems to be misinterpreted as italics by the posting form. I've reposted the message here, hopefully it will show the code properly.
Thanks again,

Hello,
I'm having trouble locating an explained example for
selecting a set of random numbers without duplicates.
Specifically, I'm working on this example from Ivor
Horton's Beginning Java, chapter 3.
3. A lottery program requires that you select six
different numbers from the integers 1-49. Write a
program to do this for you and generate five sets of
entries.
This is not homework, I'm just trying to teach myself
Java to eventually work my way up to servlets and
JSPs.
This is what I have so far. I tried to use array
sorting but it didn't work (the first three numbers in
my entries was always 0), so I commented out that
part. I've included sample output after the code. I
don't necessarily need the exact code although that
would be nice; I just need at least an explanation of
how to go about making sure that if a number has been
picked for an entry, not to pick it again.
Thanks for any help,
javahombre

As you can see, some row has <attr name="Order Online"> and some don't. I want to extract value of this attribute. It can be null for rows that don't have this attribute. How can I do it with extractvalue function? THANKS A LOT!

I figured it out that I should do the following:
select extractvalue(value(x),'/listing/content/attributes/attr[@name="Order Online"]')
from load_xml_file t, table(xmlsequence(extract(t.xml,'/listings/listing'))) x
Thanks!

The maximum value of a maximum value without making two querys of the same

Hi,
In the table cmp_lineas_cotizacion i need to take only rows with the maximum lc.mto_precio_venta of the maximum l.fec_ini_vigencia_costo of l.cod_producto, but I have the problem that cmp_lineas_cotizacion is a very load table with take to much resources of the database, I can't modify or agregate indexes, so I need a way to make this query more efficient. I want to find a way to replace the last 6 lines of this query and make it faster.

                      group by lc.cod_producto
                      )

Without table definitions, input data, and expected output, it's hard to test. But I would expect that analytic functions would be what you're after (assuming that omitting the "l.cod_producto in" clause from your main query in the subquery where you are getting the MAX values doesn't change any results). Something like
SELECT <<all your columns>>,
       l.fec_ini_vigencia_costo,
       l.mto_precio_venta,
       max(l.fec_ini_vigencia_costo) over (partition by l.cod_producto) max_vigencia_costo,
       max(l.mto_precio_venta) over (partition by l.cod_producto) max_precio_venta
FROM <<the rest of your query>>will include the MAX values and the current row values without needing to hit the table a second time. Then you should be able to do
SELECT <<list of columns>>
FROM (<<whole query from the last step>>)
WHERE fec_ini_vigencia_costo = max_vigencia_costo
   AND mto_precio_venta = max_precio_ventaJustin

Any std funtion(s) for Zero-padded, 2 decimal value, without the deci point

Hi,
We want Zero-padded, two decimal value, without the decimal point. For example if it is 14.31, we need 001431.
I have done "multiply" with 100 and "formatNumber" as '000000'
SFIeld --> multiply * 100 --> formatNumber (000000) --> TField
It works good for values with decimal like above 14.31, does it work for everything else too? I mean for 12 it is populating as 001200. Is this best approach? Is there any other std funtions or UDF sample available?
Regards,
N@v!n
