Formula to select first record on the column

Hi All
I need a formula to select a first record on the column, here is my query
SELECT DISTINCT
                      dbo.OWOR.DocNum, dbo.OWOR.ItemCode, dbo.OWOR.Status, dbo.OWOR.PlannedQty, dbo.ITM1.Price, dbo.OWOR.Warehouse,
                      dbo.OWOR.PlannedQty * dbo.ITM1.Price AS Total
FROM         dbo.OWOR INNER JOIN
                      dbo.ITM1 ON dbo.OWOR.ItemCode = dbo.ITM1.ItemCode
WHERE     (dbo.OWOR.Status = 'P') OR
                      (dbo.OWOR.Status = 'R') AND dbo.ITM1.Price
I need to select the first price on the price list for (dbo.ITM1.Price).
Regards
Bongani

Bongani,
Are you sure you don't want to link a pricelist? Because the unique key on ITM1 consists of ItemCode and PriceList and taking the first price for an item in ITM1 could result in kind of random prices for different items, depending on whice pricelist gets filled first for a certain item.

The detailRegion is always forced to populate the first record from the Master region

Hi fellow Spry enthusiasts,
My question is in regards the undesirable data population of
the regiondetail on initial load. I have 2 sections, one which is
my master region (which goes out and retrieves a bunch of records),
and a related detailregion which reacts based on the master.
However, every time I initiate a query of the master region to
retrieve records, the detail region also responds and automatically
grabs the FIRST record of the master region (which is undesirable
in my case because I do not want the detail region to react UNTIL I
select a record in the master region). Let me know if this makes
sense.
Psuedo Code:
var moveRequestor = new
Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("cfc/QueryThatReturnsABunchOfEmployeeRecords")>
<span spry:region="moveRequestor">
{EM_ID}
{NAME}
<span spry:detailregion="moveRequestor">
{EM_ID}
{NAME}
{PHONE}

This question was posted a while ago, and was one of the
search results that came up when I was looking for my own answer. I
had a nearly identical question and answered it here:

Hopefully it will help others too!

Unable to search for first record using the Preview tree

Post Author: TheBig1980s
CA Forum: General
Hello:
Users are unable to search for the first record in the Preview tab's tree. The reason for this is because the first record is within the first page header of the report. My guess is that, by design, Crystal takes the end user to whatever the first instance of the record iseven if that first record is in a page header. That's not "good". I want the user to be taken to the first record within the details of the reportnot within the page header.
I have suppressed the page header to not print on the first record by using OnFirstRecord. But, I still get the same issue where end users cannot select the first record in the tree without being taken to the page header. Very strange.
Can anybody think of any other ideas?
Thanks!

Thank you Dave Merchant and try67 for your responses. As per my previous post, I contacted the company re the catalogue and they have responded favourably. I'll include their response because it gives the reason for the search failure as document compression which you might find interesting. I'll await their new catalogue and see if they have fixed the problem.
Company response:
Thank you very much for your input. And yes, you are correct, the compression we used for the current catalogue's PDF format does strip out text included in the catalogue. We used the compression settings we did with the intention of minimising download time, however I take your point about including text for search purposes (which I also utilise when I'm scanning through PDFs).
We will actually be posting out our new catalogue next week and we'll release the new PDF version on the website at the same time. I've asked our graphic designer to ensure that the PDF we use for the new catalogue includes searchable text.

File Write Adapter, First record as a Column Header

Hi,
Using File adapter of type WRITE i m creating a file.
I want to include the column header also as a first record in File.
One way i can think of Creating one record manually and append as a first record in the File write variable.
Is there any other simple way or standard way to do it??

To have fixed header every time before it writes the data, i think you should have file with header and data, then use it to configure file write in JCA adapter.
This will create a schema with static header and dynamic results to the schema file.
So that everytime you will have the header then it write the data below that.
Note: I have done this some years back, i wrote here with from my memory.
Let me know if you still have problem, wll try to create a simple example and share.
Thanks,
Vijay

Oracle Forms returns the first record in the database when performing query

Once in a while when we query for a record on a form, say by first name Tom, then it returns the first record in the database. Other times it return the Tom's record. It only happens once in a while and if you close the form and reopen it and requery for Tom, then it brings Tom's record.
Does anyone know the issue what could be happening. It just happens every now and then that it's hard to reproduce.
ORacle Forms 10GR2
ORacle Application Server 10.1.3
thanks

then it returns the first record in the databaseI'm not sure if i understand you correctly. Do you mean forms ignores the searc-condition you entered? I would check SYSTEM.LAST_QUERY at the moment this happens to check if the condition gets somehow lost.

Master-Detail only shows the first record of the Master's data

I have an ADF Master Table, Detail table. I use ExcuteWithParams on the Master Table. When executed from a button (Button has partial submit = true for button, Master Table has PartialTrigger on button, and Detail table has PartialTrigger on Master table and button), it works fine. However, I want to pass the parameters in pageFlowScope variables, and have the ExecuteWithParams invoked upon page load. When I try to do this, the Detail table only shows the first record of the Master's data, no mater what row is clicked on the Master table.
Master table now has no PartialTrigger, and Detail table has PartialTrigger on Master table. In my pageDef, I used an invoke action as follows:
<invokeAction Binds="ExecuteWithParams" id="invokeExecuteWithParams"
Refresh="always"/>
What am I missing? I am using verion 11.1.1.3. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Jessica

Yes, it works when I drag the data control as a master detail without filtering any data. I want the user to be able to set search criteria to filter the data in the master table (For example, only pull back data with a transaction date between :startdate and :enddate). I can get it to work if I execute from an executewithparams button on the page, but not if I want to invoke the executewithparams upon page load with the parameter set by pageflowscope variables.
Thank you for responding.

How to select multiple records in the ALV POP UP by using oops

Hi All,
We have a requirement of ALV POP UP by using the OOPS. How to select the multiple records in the POP UP and After selecting that i want do Inteactive ALV means again one more POP UP in ALV.
Thanks for help....
Regards,
Bharani

Hello Bharani
Displaying an ALV list in a popup is by no means different from a list displayed on a main screen. The only thing you need to consider is that you set the right screen level when creating the parent container for the ALV.
For more details refer to thread in CL_GUI_SPLITTER_CONTAINER ALV list is not show in called screen
" step 1:
CREATE OBJECT gr_spliter
    EXPORTING
      parent = cl_gui_container=>screen0 " For first popup use: =>screen1
      rows = 1
      columns = 2.

Selecting multiple records from the list and append it into internal table.

there is a list of 10 records in the output screen with check boxes. if the user select any 3 records then those records should get appended in some other internal table of same structure.
this is the requirement. can anybody help me it is very urgent.
regards
sami

Hi,
Loop at the internal table which contains the value in table control and move it to a work area. apend the work area to the next internal table. Like:
loop at it1 into wa1 where sel = 'X'.
append wa1 to it2.
endloop.
or
loop at it1 into wa1.
if wa1-sel = 'X'.
append wa1 to it2.
endif.
endloop.

Select one record for the first matching condition only in four where condi

I need your suggestion to write one tricky SQL query to select only one record from database on the following condition.I explained simple table structure below.I have a table temp with four columns a,b,c,d in it.
I have to select column d from this temp table based on the following four conditions.If it matches any condition, It should skip other conditions, that's the tricky thing.
Conditions order is like shown below.
1) a='argument1' and b='argument2' and c='argument3'(If it matches this condition, it should stop selecting below 3 conditions)
2) a='argument1' and b='argument2' and c='none'(If it matches this condition, it should stop selecting below 2 conditions)
3) a='argument1' and b='none' and c='argument3'(If it matches this condition, it should stop selecting below condition)
4) a='argument1' and b='none' and c='none'(this is last condition)
If I use OR operator , it matches all of those other conditions too.I never wrote query like this before.
I greatly appreciate if somebody sheds light on me to start writing this query with a simple suggestion.
Thanks,

Selecting FIRST record w/o fetching them all

Hi:
Is there a way to select any one record from a set or potentially many without having to actually fetch them all?
For example, I want to get the last name of only one person with the first name 'joe' from the employees table. I don't care which "joe" it finds. I don't want Oracle to go through the expense of fetching them all before arbitrarily givnig me one of them.
select last_name from employees where first_name = 'joe' and rownum = 1;
...works, but I suspect that Oracle's getting all "joe"s before giving me the one where rownum=1.
I suppose I could do this with a cursor... open... fetch... close (only do 1 fetch), but is there a more elegant way?
Thanks in Advance!

I dunno about that.
I ran a query fetching a single record from a table which has close to 5 million records. I limited with "and rownum = 1". It took a long time, but eventually returned a valid answer.
I ran looking at the query plan, with and without the "rownum = 1". This is what I found...
SQL> explain plan set statement_id = 'foo' for select name from imp_insts where rownum = 1;
Explained.
SQL> select lpad(' ',2*LEVEL)||operation||' '||options||' '||object_name qplan

I see the "FILTER" but no "STOPKEY". I didn't trust the query that I used to show the execution plan, so I spooled "select * from plan_table" to a file and grep'd for both "STOP" and "KEY". No mention of STOPKEY.
