Formula syntax in French

Hi,
I've created a subsite whereby the language is in French. After creating a list where one of the columns is a "Calculated (calculation based on other columns)", I cannot seem to complete it. After entering the formula, I always get this error:
"La formule contient une erreur de syntaxe ou n'est pas prise en charge. "
So am I to assume that the syntax used has to be in French as well? If so, where can I find a list of those syntax?

Error Message: "The formula syntax is not supported by the report"

We are using 'Development Environment: SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio 2010 u2013 Standard ' and using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine and CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer APIu2019s
I am reading SQLExpressionFields from one source .rpt file & want to add it to another ReportDocument. While doing so, it gives an error " The formula syntax is not supported by the report"
doc.ReportClientDocumentDataDefController.FormulaFieldController.Add(formualField); // formualField is SQLExpressionField from source ReportDocument
But when I tried to Add FormulaField, it succeeds
Please help me in knowing how to add SQlExpressionFields to ReportDocument.
Regards,

Thanx Don & Ludek for the reply.
CR provides support for addition/modification of SQLExpressions.
CRAXDRT.Application application = new CRAXDRT.ApplicationClass();
CRAXDRT.Report innerReport = application.OpenReport(path, CROpenReportMethod.crOpenReportByTempCopy);
innerReport .SQLExpressionFields.Add(name, strSQLExpression)
CRAXDRT.dll provides support for addition/modification of SQLExpression fields. But its not compatible with 64bit.
Just curious to know, is there any future plan to provide support for add/modify SQLExpression fields?
Thanx

Formula Syntax in MS Word and Power Point - SmartView 11.1.1.3

I want to insert HFM hsgetvalue formulas in MS Word.
Therefore I insert a Data Field from MS Excel to MS Word with the Menu “Hyperion” – “Insert Data Point”.
The result formula in Word includes an encoded Part as to see in the copy below “|SmartView 13218724230|”.
Is it possible to change this encoded part with a “normal” formula like the first part “= HsGetValue("", "Period#P03", "Account#K0")” and how is the formula syntax?
Can I insert such formulas in MS Power Point too, if yes, how can I do this ?
Thanks for your help !

I'm sure it could be done with some SV VBA magic.
Thank you,

Formulas syntax

Dear Experts,
is there a web site, or materials that show the syntax of how to write Payroll, Taxes, and time management formulas in SAP ??
thanks a lot.

*_( first explanation )_*
Which is the decimal delimiter in use on your machine ?
The Help, the User Guide and the Insert Functions features are designed for consistent settings.
French ones are built for decimal comma so parameters are separated by semicolons in examples.
English ones are built for decimal period so parameters are separated by commas in examples.
If you run the app in English on a system using decimal comma, the examples will not match the app's requirements. It's annoying but I wouldn't assume that Apple would deliver 30 sets of resources to take care of such settings.
When you get the red triangle flagging an error, click on it to get the explanations of this error.
*_( second explanation )_*
An other source of errors is the fact that resources where translated by beings which never used the apps.
For instance, in the French version, they give this syntax :
=DATEDIF("6/4/1988"; MAINTENANT(); "A") & " années, " & DATEDIF("6/4/1988"; MAINTENANT(); "AM") & " mois et " & DATEDIF(A1; MAINTENANT(); "AJ") & " jours"
because in French Year is spelled Année and Day is spelled Jour.
Alas the app doesn't behave this way and the required syntax is :
=DATEDIF("6/4/1988"; MAINTENANT(); "Y") & " années, " & DATEDIF("6/4/1988"; MAINTENANT(); "YM") & " mois et " & DATEDIF(A1; MAINTENANT(); "YD") & " jours"
It's only when we use the insert function tool that we get the info :

Conditional Formula - Syntax Error

Hello All,
I have written the following formula in Bex in BI 7
(f04=1)((ebit<0)((abs(ebit)-(dep))-1)+(NOT(ebit<0))(ebit(dep)))(not(f04=1))*(ebit-(dep))
Though i feel that the formula is correct. The system is giving a syntax error. Request you to please help...
Regards
Nilesh

Hi Nilesh,
Cheack if it works.
( f04 == 1) * ( ( ebit < 0 ) * ( ( abs ( ebit ) - ( dep ) ) * -1 ) + ( ( ebit >= 0 ) ) * ( ebit + ( dep ) ) ) + ( ( f04 <> 1 ) ) * ( ebit - ( dep ) )

Error in Formula Syntax

Hi
Could you please update me where the error in Syntax.
I had a User entry Variable on Cal Year/Week in my query.
My requirment is to display a drop down list of Week No (1-52).
For this reason i created a Drop Down with Static List of 1-52 weeks.
So User selects week no between 1-52 from the drop down and
So based on user selected week the variable should be populated user selected week and current year.
Ex: If user selects 39 from Dropdown then the variable Cal Year/Week should be populated as 200939
For that purpose i am writing the below formula but its not working could you please update me what is wrong
'MID(NOW(),7,4)+@Week'
(Basically the formula is getting Current Year from Current date (now) and concentating it with user entered week)
Please update me
Thanks

Hi
Thanks for the update
The syntax is working.....could you please ammend the syntax to include if condition
My requirment is
IF Week (User Selected) is Blank the the result should be blank else MID(NOW(),6,4)&@Week
In the static list i created a entry (First in the list) blank...so if the user don't want to apply any restriction on week no...then he selects blank else the weenk no of choice
Please update

Formula syntax errors

Hi All,
I have a formula like this
NODIV(100((A-B)/A))
But this is showing that syntax errors are there. Please let me know if any error is and is it correct?
Thanks in advance
Sravani

Hi,
It is just a matter of doing to much calculation in one fromula.
I presume that there is something missing between 100 and (
First: are the dimensions of A and B the same.
if not first make tho CKF NIDOM(A) and NODIM(B) and then do 100/((A_B)/A)
Hide the first CKF (in properties)
If the dimensions of A and B are the same, first calculate 100/((A_B)/A) and do NODIM with the result.

Formula Syntax Error

I am trying to work with a formula whereby =1/(1+0.1)² ; =1/(1+0.1)³ etc. How do I do this on Mac numbers?
Each time I enter this formula using the special characters I get the warning: "The Formula contains a Syntax Error".
Absence of an kind of guidance or information from Apple on such basics is shocking.

The fact that you appear to be unable to download the well done resource delivered by Apple is shocking.
The three highlighted items aren't reserved for helpers usage !
They are useful to learn the required syntax.

Fox Formula Syntax error

Hi All,
Even though the syntax is correct in the belwo mentioned code .I am encountering problem with code in line mentioned for CYEAR = TMVL(PYEAR,-1).
Below is the error:
A comma and other arguments were expected instead of )
Syntax error in row 13, column 27
DATA IB TYPE ZDG_CIDVB.
DATA CLUSTER TYPE ZDG_CCLST.
DATA REGION TYPE ZDG_CREGN.
DATA CUSTOMER TYPE ZDG_CTCUS.
DATA PYEAR TYPE 0FISCYEAR.
DATA CYEAR TYPE 0FISCYEAR.
CLUSTER = VARV(ZDG_CCLST_C_01).
REGION = VARV(ZDG_CREGN_C_01).
CUSTOMER = VARV(ZDG_CTCUS_C_01).
PYEAR = VARV (ZDG_FYEAR_C_01).
CYEAR = TMVL(PYEAR,-1).
FOREACH IB.
IF IB <> #.
{ZDG_KGVLE,K4,PYEAR,ZDG_TCDEP, CLUSTER,IB,REGION,CUSTOMER,0000000001,S01,60,CS} =
({ZDG_KVOLC,K4,PYEAR,ZDG_TCDEP, CLUSTER,IB,REGION,CUSTOMER,0000000001,S01,60,CS} - {ZDG_KVOLC,K4,CYEAR,ZDG_TCDEP, CLUSTER,IB,REGION,CUSTOMER,0000000002,S00,60,CS}) /
{ZDG_KVOLC,K4,CYEAR,ZDG_TCDEP, CLUSTER,IB,REGION,CUSTOMER,0000000002,S00,60,CS}.
ENDIF.
ENDFOR.

ZDG_FYEAR_C_01 - it has to be a global variable that is described in your planning area. The type of this variable must be 0FISCYEAR. And you have to set up the variable ZDG_FYEAR_C_01 in something.
Is it so in your system?

Formula Syntax to find newest entries

I have a database that has several entries with non-unique IDs. I am looking for a Select formula that would weed out duplicate entries for each JournalID, and only report the newest entry. I have entries for what phase of the workflow they are in (numbered 1-4), and Last Modified (a date/time field).

Try to group on the unique field which has more than one record in database and go to report>selection formulas>group--> write the condition like this
=maximum(,{Grouped Field})
this gives you only the latest modification date records.

Problem with variables in formulas when using CrystalReportViewer

Post Author: Aksu
CA Forum: Formula
Hi! I have a problem with variables in Crystal Reports formulas, when using CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms.CrystalReportViewer class from VS2005-project. ReportViewer always gives error:*************Crystal Report Windows Forms ViewerThis field name is not known.Details: errorKindError in File C:\{dir]}\{file}.rpt:Error in formula <mCustomerAttributes>.'Dim result As String'This field name is not known.Details: errorKind ************* Report without variables works fine with Viewer and in Crystal Reports Designer report with variables works also fine. I have tried with both "formula-syntaxes" - basic and crystal. But Viewer always gives error when trying to define new variable.I think the problem might be with CR -versions, because VS-project has formerly been designed to VS2003 and CR9 or 10. Now I'm using VS2005 and CR11. Though I have changed all references to new CrystalDecisions-asseblies (Ver.11.0.3300.0), when I debug the project and checkout the Viewers ReportSources FormatEngine Shows version CR9_2.... I have no idea where it gets this version...***************DEBUG-view when Viewer is created *******************CrystalReportViewer |_ ReportSourceClassFactoryName ... , Version=11.0.3300.0 , ... |_ ReportSource |_ FormatEngine {CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.FormatEngine} |_ ClientVersionHeader {CrystalDecisions.Shared.ReportServiceVersionHeader} |_ | version = 920 (int) |_ Static members |_ VER_CR9 = 920 (int)**************************************** Could anyone have any answers or tips for this problem? I'd really appreciate it... ---Aksu

Has anyone been able to answer this question?
I am having the same problem:
I am designing a report in Crystal Reports XI Developer that contains parameters, which are passed to a stored procedure and are also used within formulas ( in Crystal Syntax ie. {?FORMAT_ID} ) in the report itself.
I can run the report successfully in CRXI Developer. The formulas use the correct values from the parameters entered during execution and everything looks good.
I then deploy the report to Business Objects Enterprise XI. I do all of the things necessary to manage the report including setting up the proper database connection information and default parameter values.
When I run the report using the Crystal Report Viewer, I get the following error message:
Error in File Forecasting.rpt:
Error in formula <Report Format>.
'if (not isNull({?FORMAT_ID} ) ) then
This field name is not known.
Details: errorKind
This happens when I press the "Preview" button in the Manage Object dialog from Crystal or when I run the report using InfoView.
I have changed the formulas and it doesn't seem to matter what the specific content of the formula is; other than the existence of a parameter reference in the formula. If I comment out the parameter and replace it with a hard-coded value, it gets through the formula fine.
Does Business Objects Enterprise XI support crystal reports with parameter references in the formulas?
Thanks,
Tim H.
