Fixed Assets : How to fetch assets from FA tables depending on periods submitted in query ?

Question

Hello,
Module : Fixed Assets
We are trying to fetch the assets for a report depending on the periods['From Period' & 'To Period'] given to SQL query,but we are not getting count of assets as expected.
And so the count isn't matching with 'CIP Details Report' which is a seeded oracle report.Here is the query that we tried,
SELECT   fadd.asset_id, fadd.asset_number,
         fak.segment1 || '.' || fak.segment2 asset_key, fadd.tag_number,
         fadd.description asset_description,
         fadd.attribute_category_code asset_category,
         fb.date_placed_in_service, gp.start_date, gp.end_date
    FROM fa_additions fadd,
         fa_asset_keywords fak,
         fa_books_v fb,
         gl_periods gp,
         fa_deprn_periods fdp,
         fa_asset_history fah,
         fa_transaction_headers fth
   WHERE fadd.asset_key_ccid = fak.code_combination_id
     AND fadd.asset_id = fb.asset_id
     AND fah.asset_id = fadd.asset_id
     AND fth.asset_id = fah.asset_id
     AND fth.transaction_header_id = fah.transaction_header_id_in
     AND fah.asset_type = 'CIP'
     AND fdp.book_type_code = fb.book_type_code
     AND fdp.period_name = gp.period_name
     AND fdp.book_type_code = :p_book_type_code            --'KV US CORP BOOK'
     AND fdp.period_counter =
            (SELECT MAX (fdp.period_counter)
               FROM fa_deprn_periods fdp
              WHERE 1 = 1
                AND fdp.calendar_period_open_date BETWEEN (SELECT start_date
                                                             FROM gl_periods
                                                            WHERE period_name =
                                                                    :p_period_from) = -- 'JUL-12-F13'
                                                      AND (SELECT start_date
                                                             FROM gl_periods
                                                            WHERE period_name =
                                                                    :p_period_to)) -- 'DEC-12-F13'
     AND fth.transaction_date_entered
            BETWEEN (SELECT calendar_period_open_date 
                       FROM fa_deprn_periods                      --gl_periods
                      WHERE period_name = :p_period_from           -- 'JUL-12-F13'
                        AND book_type_code = :p_book_type_code)   --'KV US CORP BOOK'
                AND (SELECT calendar_period_close_date  
                       FROM fa_deprn_periods                      --gl_periods
                      WHERE period_name = :p_period_to              -- 'DEC-12-F13'
                        AND book_type_code = :p_book_type_code)
GROUP BY fadd.asset_id,
         fadd.asset_number,
         fak.segment1 || '.' || fak.segment2,
         fadd.tag_number,
         fadd.description,
         fadd.attribute_category_code,
         fb.date_placed_in_service,
         fb.deprn_method_code,
         fb.life_in_months,
         gp.start_date,
         gp.end_date
ORDER BY 1
The query returns the assets which have the 'transaction date entered' between the periods submitted.
But what about the assets who's 'Beginning Year Balance' is not zero [in the periods submitted in the query], those assets should also get displayed in the report.[and seeded report 'CIP Detail Report' shows assets who's 'Beginning Year Balance' is not zero along with  the assets which have the transaction date entered between the periods submitted]
Any inputs / help / suggestions on this ?
Thanks !

This is a strange requirement, depending on the columns you have and what are optional in them, one way is to have separate operations and each opeartion will have different inputs and for each operation , a different DB Adapter is called. But this way, it results in more number of operations for the service as well as more number of references in the composite. Even if you pass the column inputs to the SQL procedure, it will result in a large number of if-else cases..
