Format Oracle Date to CF Output

I'm querying an Oracle db and one of the fields is a date
field. I am selecting many columns from this db so have tried many
different versions of either DateFormat, Oracle's TO_DATE and
TO_CHAR conversions but none of them worked successfully. I think
what is throwing me off is that I'm not just selecting the date
field, I'm selecting many fields so I've even tried a query of
query with no luck.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I work with these in SQL Server and they are a total pain. I
have no idea if Oracle can work with them. I doubt it.
I have CF UDFs that convert to/from this format, as well as
SQL UDFs that do the same thing. Generally for outputting from a
SELECT query, I'll use the SQL UDF inline to convert the integer
value to a valid date/time boject.
Search Google... You'll find plenty of info.

    it seems that you have concatenated timestamp  with  year .

  • Oracle Reports with XML output showing data as asterik character

    Hello,
    I'm trying to create an Oracle report with xml output. Here is the issue I'm having some of the columns in my report are of datatype number. When I run the report and generate xml file the values for those columns(datatype number) are showing as (*) character, other columns are showing fine. But when I run the report as text output then data is fine. I don't understand why this is happening.
    The property of column is Column Type - Database Scalar, Datatype - Number , width 0,-127.
    Does the width has to do anything with this?

  • Convert Oracle date format masks to Java format masks

    Have an application based on Oracle that stores data in text form (for display) and in native date format. It is being migrated to another application with a Java based front end that can only use Java format masks to display the dates in the desired display format.
    Is there a way to translate the Oracle format masks to Java? I can do this in SQL or PL/SQL using the database or in Java.
    I really don't want to write detailed code to parse the masks, although if parsers are available to take an oracle mask into its metadata (minute, year, etc), it may be possible for me to write the code.
    This seems like something that must have been done many times over the years. I would prefer to reuse workable code rather than reinventing the wheel.
    To be clear, I do not need to alter data or convert dates shown in string form. Just the format masks so the new app will display dates in the same manner as the old app. Fortunately, both apps handle interpreting the format masks in their native technology, so it is just converting the format mask.

    kenmadsen wrote:
    Both applications have a varchar2 column and a date column. A date picker selects and returns the date in native format for storage and the application uses the mask to format the varchar2 column for display (and storage). The old application uses an Oracle date format mask DD-Mon-YYYY HH24:MI and the new application uses Java date masks (DD-MM-YYYY hh:mm). (I may not have the translation from HH24 to hh correct).
    The date column and the display column store the same information (a date), but one is stored natively and the other is displayed as the application administrator want the particular row to be formatted for display. (the mask is a column in the same table as the other 2 columns). Each row has characteristics (other columns) that determines what the data is and how it should be shown (some things need to show time; others only the date)
    So the problem is, when migrating, the new application cannot render the dates as the old app did because "Mon" is Oracle format, not Java format.
    No data is being converted in the migration, except for the mask itself. Both applications have the same record structure with respect to these columns and they both use the mask to generate the formatted varchar2 data for display in the application and storage.too bad you insist on try to describe with words rather than actual CODE.
    Please explain again why this is an Oracle problem & NOT a Java problem?
    Oracle RDBMS is a data repository & can't automagically change data content for you.

  • RE: Oracle DATE data format conversion..

    <C.M> Motta's question about dates and oracle>
    Dealing with dates and Oracle is somewhat of a nuisance. Oracle is very
    particular about how date strings are formatted, and if you get it wrong,
    you get the (unhelpful) message that C.M. Motta showed us. However, if
    you pass a DateTimeData to Oracle, Forte' does the right formatting for you.
    If you do need to format the date prior to interacting with Oracle, use the
    following format:
    dd-mmm-yy <time component>
    You can change the default format, but it is not easy.
    If you customise Express generated code that interacts with an Oracle
    database, again, make sure that you pass a DateTimeData, and not the
    .TextValue.
    Good luck!

    Most likely what is happening is that you are using the default date

    You can either truncate the year, or manipulate the date to match the standard

    insert into jimbo values (to_Date('01-jan-1997', 'DD-MON-YYYY'))

    ORACLE 7은 세기의 전환에 대해 'RR' 이라는 새로운 DATE FORMAT을 제공한다.
    'RR' 은 DATE FORMAT의 마지막 2 DIGITS에 다른 세기에 대한 DATE값을 저장한다는
    것을 제외하고는 'YY' FORMAT과 유사하다.
    다음은 사용자가 지정하는 YEAR를 현재의 YEAR를 기반으로 하여,
    'RR' FORMAT이 RETURN하는 DATE(세기)를 나타낸 것이다.
    현재 YEAR의 지정된 YEAR의 'RR' FORMAT결과
    마지막 2 DIGIT     마지막 2 DIGIT
    0 - 49     0 - 49     현재 세기
    50 - 99      0 - 49 다음 세기
    0 - 49      50 - 99     이전 세기
    50 - 99     50 - 99     현재 세기
    예를 들면, 현재가 1993년이면, 50에서 90사이의 년도는 20세기에 포함되고,
    0에서 49사이의 년도는 21세기에 포함된다. 마찬가지로 현재가 2001년이면
    50에서 90사이의 년도는 20세기에 포함되고, 0에서 49사이의 년도는 21세기에
    포함된다.
    다음은 'RR'사용에 대한 예이다.
    이와 같이 RR type을 사용하여 모든 application을 수정하기 곤란할 때에는
    환경변수의 nls_date_format을 변경하여도 된다.
    단, nls_date_format은 이후에 다른 사용자에 의해 변경되어질 수도 있으므로
    application을 수정하는 것이 안전하다.

    RR was introduced as a Y2K workaround for all those programs that didn't store the century. It has a fixed window - 50 to 99 defaults to twentieth century, 00 to 49 is twenty-first. YY on teh other hand just defaults to the current century. At least in 9.2 it does. I think in earlier version of the database it defaulted to 00 - hence many systems apparently have records that were created in the first century AD.

  • Format Payment Instructions with Text Output issue

    Hi All,
    We have requirement like don't want print checks in oracle, just process the payment, generate the document number(check number) in oracle and send the data file to third party system. It takes care the check printing.
    For this I developed e-text xml template, created the payment format of type Disbursement Payment Instruction, attached to bank account and Payment process profile.
    When I am processing payment it is submitting 'Format Payment Instructions with Text Output' instead of 'Format Payment Instructions' but that program extracting the previous check information which not related to supplier and as well as payments batch.
    Please let me know what would be the issue?
    Thanks

    2) In Payable Manager responsibility Create a Payment Format ->
    Setup-> Payment Administrator-> Formats (Add XML Publisher Template created in step1)
    3) Setup-> Payments -> check existing Bank & Bank Branches
    4) Setup-> Payments -> Bank Accounts -> Create the payment Document Number
    5) Attach the Bank account to a valid supplier: Payables – Suppliers -> Entry
    6) Now to create the payment Process Profile (PPP)
    Navigation : go to Payables -> Setup-> Payment Administrator
    7) Now to attach everything (PPP,format,document etc.) to the Template
    First step to Create a “Template”
    Navigation: Payables,Vision Operations -> Payments -> Entry -> Payments Manager
    8) Then go to Tab “Payment Process Requests” Then click on “Submit Single Request”
    9) Check View -> Requests
    No output generated in 'Format Payment Instruction' program.
    which program I can get the eText output?
    Please suggest.

  • How to format a date to display the ISO week number in BI Publisher ?

    Hi there,
    I need to format a date to display the ISO week number in BI Publisher.
    I've tried the following <?format-date:NEED_BY_DATE;'WW'?>, but it returns a week number (1-53) where week 1 starts on the first day of the year and continues to the seventh day of the year, which is not what I want.
    I want the ISO week number (1-52 or 1-53), the one implemented by the 'IW' format mask of the Oracle PL/SQL TO_CHAR() function for example.
    I've tried using 'IW' format mask, but it is not recognised by BI Publisher.
    Also, as I'm working on an RTF template, I've tried 'IW' as MS Word date format, but it is not recognised by MS Word :-((
    Any help would be much appreciated,
    Regards - Hugues

  • Numerical Characters Formatting Problem With XML Report Output Run From Command Line

    Hi,
    Problem description is:
    When a BI Publisher concurrent job is submitted as a child job of a PL/SQL type concurrent request, the locale in OPP is not set same as of RTF template selected. This results in number format and date format localization not work as expected. For example, when BI Publisher child job is submitted after attaching RTF template (through fnd_request.add_layout API) having language-territory as de-DE, the number format on PDF output comes out as 9,999.00 instead of 9.999,00.
    Points to notice:
    1. In OPP log we noticed that xslt._XDOLOCALE always has value EN-GB irrespective of language-territory of attached RTF template
    2. NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTER column in fnd_concurrent_request table has no value for BI Publisher job. We can set it up through fnd_request.set_options API but it is not a desired solution. We need that OPP should automatically choose correct number format depending on locale of selected RTF template
    3. When same child BI Publisher job's output is re-processed through "XML Publisher Report" program and de-DE locale is chosen for RTF template then the number format localization works fine.
    Please help us to understand root cause of this issue and how it can be resolved.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Problem description is:
    When a BI Publisher concurrent job is submitted as a child job of a PL/SQL type concurrent request, the locale in OPP is not set same as of RTF template selected. This results in number format and date format localization not work as expected. For example, when BI Publisher child job is submitted after attaching RTF template (through fnd_request.add_layout API) having language-territory as de-DE, the number format on PDF output comes out as 9,999.00 instead of 9.999,00.
    Points to notice:
    1. In OPP log we noticed that xslt._XDOLOCALE always has value EN-GB irrespective of language-territory of attached RTF template
    2. NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTER column in fnd_concurrent_request table has no value for BI Publisher job. We can set it up through fnd_request.set_options API but it is not a desired solution. We need that OPP should automatically choose correct number format depending on locale of selected RTF template
    3. When same child BI Publisher job's output is re-processed through "XML Publisher Report" program and de-DE locale is chosen for RTF template then the number format localization works fine.
    Please help us to understand root cause of this issue and how it can be resolved.
    Thanks!

  • Oracle Data Gatherer

    Hello everyone,
    I installed Oracle 8.1.5.0.1 on Linux Redhat 6.1. I start the
    Inteligent agent, discover the service from the entreprise
    manager console on a WIN98 station, but i can't start the data
    gatherer.
    The output from:
    vppcntl -start is:
    The Oracle Data Gatherer is runing.
    vppcntl -ping is:
    The Oracle Data Gatherer is not runing.
    When i use the console debug option the output is:
    DBG: Error: lmsagbf returned error in vp_get_catmsg(), msgid =
    5016
    DBG: error
    DBG: vppdgerr: ERROR: Error: unable to open file
    DBG: Error: lmsagbf returned error in vp_get_catmsg(), msgid =
    5001
    DBG: error
    DBG: vppdgerr: ERROR: Error: unable to open data cartridge
    registry file
    DBG: Error: lmsagbf returned error in vp_get_catmsg(), msgid =

    5773
    DBG: error
    DBG: vppdgerr: ERROR: Error: failed to initialize state
    information during startup
    The error 5001 is explained as follows:
    05001, 0, "Error: unable to open data cartridge registry file"
    // *Cause: an error occurred attempting to open the cartridge
    registry file (svppcart.dat)
    // *Action: ensure the file exists in the directory $OHOME/odg
    and that it has read access
    The file exist in the specified directory and has read access.If
    i delete the file the error is the same.The content of the file
    is:
    ODB ALL vpxodb vpxodb
    SOL ALL svpxos svpxos
    If somebody has an ideea please tell me.
    Thenks!

    The data gatherer is not usable on Linux with the 8.1.5 release.
    There is an existing bug (1121827) for this issue. You really
    need to upgrade to 8.1.6 or 8.1.7 as everything works much
    better on Linux with these versions.
