Flattening hierarchy of 0COSTELMNT

Hi experts
We have the same scenario as described in this blog:
http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-48062
We only need node level 6 and 7 of cost element hierarchy.
I have applied the coding as of the blog, but the routine doesn't finish,
Is there any additional coding or corrections to make?
Thanks.

Hi Suhas
So firstly, extend the length of lw_final-costelmnt. It should be equal to the lngth of the Cost El IOBJ plus the length of the Controlling Area.
This is already the nodename of costel IOBJ including the controlling area:
I think I already have the right length with:
LOOP AT lt_costel INTO lw_costel WHERE iobjnm =
'0COSTELMNT'.
CLEAR lv_parentid.
lv_parentid = lw_costel-parentid.
lw_final-costelmnt = lw_costel-nodename.
DO.
READ TABLE lt_costel1 INTO lw_costel1 WITH KEY nodeid =
lv_parentid.
CHECK sy-subrc = 0.
CASE lw_costel1-tlevel.
WHEN '01'.
lw_final-lvl1_nodname =
lw_costel1-nodename.
WHEN '02'.
lw_final-lvl2_nodname =
lw_costel1-nodename.

  • Flatten Hierarchy By Filtering Out Unnecessary Limbs

    We have numerous hierarchies in our organization that faciliate various reporting views.  Some of those views are slight variations of one another.  One common theme that we have encountered is the need for the same basic view, but with less granularity in terms of rollups.
    Example (alphas are limbs, numerics are leafs):
    Master Hierarchy
    A
         B
              C
                   1
                   2
              D   
                   3
                   4
         E
              5
              6
    We need to derive a custom export that eliminates all the in-between nodes and just rolls all the leafs up to Node A.
    A
         1
         2
         3
         4
         5
         6
    This type of flattening may happen at any level within the hierarchy (not necessary all rolling up to the top level).  So we need a somewhat dynamic way to achieve this.  I am thinking that a property could be built to flag certain key levels that are required for the custom export, but still not sure how to get those key levels flagged as parents for the leafs, regardless of which level the leaf is at in the Master hierarchy.
    Any thoughts?    

    Hi Denzz,
    What kind of OR condition could be written that would not only filter certain limb nodes out, but also realign the parent/child relationships accordingly.  For example:
    Master Hierarchy
    A
         B
              C
                   1
                   2
              D   
                   3
                   4
         E
              5
              6
    We need to derive a custom export that eliminates rollups C & D.
    A
      B 
         1
         2
         3
         4
      E 
         5
         6
    I can understand creating a formula/property to filter in or out certain rollups.  But we would also need to effectively change the parent value of 1, 2, 3, 4 to B (instead of C or D).  Are you suggesting a formula that checks the immediate parent for the filter property, and if not found, then go to grandparent, then next grandparent and so on until found?

  • Flatten hierarchy nodes

    I have the following recursive query:
        SELECT SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH(object_name, '\') AS path
        FROM user_group_nodes
        START WITH parent_id = '2892107544AA2278166C1AA8D123E761'
        CONNECT BY parent_id = PRIOR object_id
        ORDER SIBLINGS BY object_name;
    Which returns the following sample dataset:
        \UserGroupA\UserGroupAA\UserGroupAAA\JaneDoe
        \UserGroupA\UserGroupAA\UserGroupAAA\UserGroupAAAA\UserGroupAAAAA\JohnDoe
    Based on the above sample dataset, I need to insert the following records into a table:
    Group
    User
    UserGroupA
    JaneDoe
    UserGroupAA
    JaneDoe
    UserGroupAAA
    JaneDoe
    UserGroupA
    JohnDoe
    UserGroupAA
    JohnDoe
    UserGroupAAA
    JohnDoe
    UserGroupAAAA
    JohnDoe
    UserGroupAAAAA
    JohnDoe
    Can someone provide direction on how to accomplish this? I'm leaning towards using a cursor, but I'm hoping there is another option that performs better since I need to do this across 10,000 users and 1,500 groups.

    One way:
    --==============================================================================================
    WITH t AS
            (SELECT '\UserGroupA\UserGroupAA\UserGroupAAA\JaneDoe' str FROM DUAL
             UNION ALL
             SELECT '\UserGroupA\UserGroupAA\UserGroupAAA\UserGroupAAAA\UserGroupAAAAA\JohnDoe'
               FROM DUAL),
         tt AS
            (SELECT LTRIM (SUBSTR (str, 1, INSTR (str, '\', -1) - 1), '\') str,
                    SUBSTR (str, INSTR (str, '\', -1) + 1) val
               FROM t)
        SELECT str,
               REGEXP_SUBSTR (str,
                              '[^\]+',
                              1,
                              LEVEL)
                  split_str,
               val
          FROM tt
    CONNECT BY     LEVEL <= LENGTH (str) - LENGTH (REPLACE (str, '\')) + 1
               AND PRIOR str = str
               AND PRIOR DBMS_RANDOM.VALUE IS NOT NULL;
    --====================================================================================
    Output:
    STR
    SPLIT_STR
    VAL
    UserGroupA,UserGroupAA,UserGroupAAA
    UserGroupA
    JaneDoe
    UserGroupA,UserGroupAA,UserGroupAAA

    Note: I hope you got it that you need to replace that with clause of t with your query.

  • Different elements of different levels of hierarchy

    Hi experts,
    I have a question about hierarchies obiee 11g.
    I need to do a table that contains (plain text, without '+' to drill-down) different elements of different levels of hierarchy
    I have a hierarchy Account like this:
    Level1
    -----Level2
    -------Element1Level2
    -------Element2Level2
    ------------Level3
    --------------Element1Level3
    -------Element3Level2
    My assignment is to do a table like this
    Level1---------------
    Element2Level2--
    Element1Level3--
    Element3Level2--
    So I don't want to drill-down on Element2Level2 to see Elements of Level3...
    How can I achieve this??
    Thanks!

    If I a not wrong, you basically want to flatten out a hierarchy. You should be able to do it using the Parent-child hierarchy concept newly introduced in OBIEE 11g where the RPD generates the DDL and DML for you, but you might have to build out an intermediate table to source the final flattened hierarchy table. Refer to this link which has a great example. ( http://prasadmadhasi.com/2011/11/15/hierarchies-parent-child-hierarchy-in-obiee-11g/ )

  • Exporting picture with only the bottom of a keyword hierarchy

    Hi,
    I am exporting my pictures to be shown in a wordpress blog. I set up wordpress in a way to use the meta data. I have a hierarchy for people "People > private > Paul". What I get now in wordpress is the flattened hierarchy. What I want to see is "Paul". Is it possible to achive this somehow? The checkboxes do not seem to do the trick.
    Thanks!

    If you only want the bottom (last) keyword to be exported you'll have to setup the keywords higher up the hierarchy as non exportable. Right click the containing keyword and choose Edit Keyword from context menu.
    Also, make sure that the Export window option to write the Lightroom keyword hierarchy is unchecked.

    Please let me know your thoughts on this to acheive the same,

    Well you've already said you can get your XML into the initial flattened hierarchy structure, so you just need to manipulate that to assign a sequence (row number) as appropriate.

  • PATH() issue - The Value 'Val123' has multiple values

    Im using PATH() to get a flattened hierarchy. I keep getting the following error:
    Calculation error in column 'Detail'[]: Each value in 'Detail'[UniqueID] must have the same value in 'Detail'[ParentTest]. The value 'A00012:A123' has multiple values.
    I know with 100% certainty that there are not multiple values for A00012:A123.
    I have also copied the data ( from the powerpivot Designer) to another workbook and cannot reproduce the issue. 
    Can anyone advise what might be going on here? Im using Excel 2010 32bit, if its any use. If i can supply any further information please let me know.
    Thanks

    I found the issue. In a seperate set of rows there was a duplicate. the rows had nothing to do with the rows that were actually mentioned in the error message. so a cause has been identified.

  • GL Balances with segment Hierarchies in Discoverer

    Does anyone here have the need to report on GL balances using the Account segment hierarchies?
    The only way users can utilize the GL segment hierarchies is through FSG reporting and some other products such as DBI and EPF.
    Each segment in GL accounting flexfield can have one or multiple hierarchies and the hierarchies are defined as parent child relationship in the FND_FLEX_NORM_HIERARCHY table. Because of the nature of the way these hierarchy is defined in GL it cannot be directly consumed for Discoverer reporting.
    To take advantage of these hierarchies in Discoverer, I have developed a solution that flattens the hierarchies in one go and the flattened hierarchy can then be mapped to Discoverer hierarchies. Once this is established, users can truly benefit from Drilling down and rolling up feature of discoverer hierarchy and I have seen users just love this feature. I am sure this can be adapted to OBIEE too.
    If you would like to know more about this solution, please let me know njethwa @ gmail . com

  • How to write SQL query to flatten the hierarchy

  • Flattened to Parent Child Hierarchy

    Hi,
    My client has a little different requirement from normal.
    We want to convert the flattened version of hierarchy to parent child format. Does anyone have any sql script or idea how we can achieve this quickly?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Flatten a hierarchy

    I'm trying to flatten a hierarchy. I have a table with a parent/child relationship in the following order
    Parent_ID Child_ID
    1234 1234
    1234 1235
    1235 1236....etc
    I would like to transform the hierarchy to
    1234 , 1235, 1236
    If I use a sys_connect_by I get
    1234;
    1234;1235
    1235;1235;1236
    Thanks
    Khetani

    Starting from Oracle 10 you can use CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF operator to filter out unwanted rows:
    WITH HIERARCHY AS (
      SELECT LEVEL + 1233 PARENT_ID, LEVEL + 1233 + 1 CHILD_ID
      FROM DUAL CONNECT BY LEVEL < 6
    SELECT SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH( PARENT_ID, ';') PARENT_ID
    FROM HIERARCHY
    WHERE CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF = 1
    START WITH PARENT_ID = 1234
    CONNECT BY PRIOR CHILD_ID = PARENT_ID;
    PARENT_ID
    ;1234;1235;1236;1237;1238

  • How to flatten keyword hierarchy?

    For about a year I had all my keywords organized into a nice hierarchy, but after moving projects between libraries and computers my keywords are in chaos because keyword hierarchy information is not included in exported projects. I have keywords repeated with one nested in a folder and its copy sitting at the top level (with photos assigned to both).
    After seeing what a mess moving projects causes, I'd like to eliminate the hierarchies and just keep a flat list. Does anyone know of a way to flatten the structure without having to drag each keyword out of its folder? I tried deleting the Keywords.plist file, but it gets rebuilt with the hierarchy intact. Any help is appreciated!

    One thing that might be a factor is the way Aperture keeps keywords active even if you move or delete them in the keywords list.
    In order to have control over your keyword list, you need to delete existing keywords from your images. As Steve Weller points out in his articles, Aperture keeps keyword information in several places, not just the keyword list, and you need to deal with all of the places in order to control the hierarchy of the keyword list. For example, if you have set up custom keyword buttons, they store the keyword in the hierarchy of the time the button was created, so each time you use the button, you are making Aperture "remember" the hierarchy, even if you have later moved the keyword.
    But your issue is that you have many images using keywords. When a keyword is used in an image, it is stored with the image; Aperture remembers the hierarchy of the keyword. This means that if you later move that keyword in the keyword list, Aperture considers the moved keyword to be separate and independent of the keyword previously used with an image. You can see this in the smart album display of keywords, which is based on actually used keywords. If you are having this problem, then keywords will appear more than once in the smart album keyword list. If you want to keep the same spelling of a keyword that has been moved in the keyword list, the only solution I know of is, frankly, a bit tedious:
    1. use the smart album to select all images using the unwanted version of the keyword
    2. then assign an "intermediate" (not identically spelled) keyword to those images,
    3. then delete the unwanted version of the keyword from the images (use the keyword field in the control bar; option-tilde or click on the field, then type the name of the unwanted keyword, then shift-return to delete the keyword)
    4. then assign the new version of the keyword to the images
    5. then delete the intermediate keyword
    Good luck!
