Goto functionality (query to query)

Hello,
I created two queries. With transaction "rsbbs" I refer one query as sender-query and the other as receiver-query. If I execute sender-query, for most of characteristics the functionality "Goto" works fine. That means data will display in receiver-query. But there are some characteristics for which no applicable data will found in receiver-query, though they have data. If I execute receiver-query allone with same restrictions, data will found for these characteristics.
What could be the problem? Is it possible to see which restrictions will really used in the background by using functionalíty "Goto" (e.g. debugging)?
Many thanks in advance!
Anne

Hi,
in the query tab select the receiver then click to 'Assignement details'.
You should have to customize correspondance field.
hope it help's

What is the problem? What am I doing wrong?

Mal,
I think that need to provide more information about what you are doing when you get this error. This appears to be a LV error.
1)What version of LV are you using? What are you doing in TestStand when you get this error?
2)Is your TestStand sequence calling a VI from which this error is generated? If so what is this VI doing?
3)Can you isolate the source of this error to a particular VI that is using queues?
4)How often does the error occur?
5)The path of Queue Core.vi is \vi.lib\Platform\synch.llb\Queue Core.vi. Can you put some probes on the input of this VI to determine what inputs are causing this error? What are all of the inputs to this VI when the error occurs?
6)Is queue being created or destroyed? Is an element being added or removed from a que
ue?
7)Is this your queue or a queue used by one of LV's VIs?
Unless someone has had this exact error, then it is going to be difficult to debug without more information. Clearly, the problem is easiest to solve if it is reproducible by others.

Hi David,
The base is same but the problem is different.
As far as implementation concern these queries looks same, but when I see there counts, they do not match. I do not have any reason why this happening.

How to use goto function?

how to use goto function in indesign javascript??
my script starts with chekcing whether input files are present or not.. if any of the input files r not present, i want to skip the function n terminate the functioning with displaying the message tht file doesnt exisit.... i was wondering to use goto function for tht...so how to use it? or is there any other alternative to that??

goto is generally frowned on by programmers.
The only legitimate use of goto is when you need to escape a nested loop.
If you need to skip part of a routine, use break, or simply return from the current function.
The pattern commonly used by the SDK looks like this:
do
     if(condition1 == false)
          break;
     if(condition2 == false)
          break;
     if(condition3 == false)
          break;
     doSomethingReallyCool();
}while(false);
"break" jumps to the end of the do/while loop which always exits when you reach the end of it (while(false))

LDub,
Your function is full of errors. First of all you didn't escape quotes and second, you didn't use the concatination operator properly. Beside that, there was a bit too much of code there. Here is the modified code that will work for you:

Select Into statement in db function - query from granted schema table

problem with "select into" in db function in 10.2
There are two schemas. 'mdbdev' is the master database and 'devusr' is granted SELECT table access to execute queries in mdbdev schema.
with devusr, in SQL, I'm able to execute the following query
select wm_concat(strConcatedCountryList)
from (select country_name as strConcatedCountryList from mdbdev.country_master mdbcm
where mdbcm.country_ship_status = <param?>
order by country_name)
but when I use the same query in function/procedure with "select into", the compilation failed with error *"table or view does not exist"*
FUNCTION GETCOUNTRYLISTTOSHIP (SHIP_STATUS IN NUMBER)
RETURN VARCHAR2
IS
var2CountryList VARCHAR2(1000);
BEGIN
select wm_concat(strConcatedCountryList) INTO var2CountryList
from (select country_name as strConcatedCountryList from mdbdev.country_master mdbcm
where mdbcm.country_ship_status = <value of SHIP_STATUS>
order by country_name);
return var2CountryList;
END;
Please advise/help/hint :)

David, Justine, Thank you. The facts from this forum post helped a lot to get the solution.
The query helped a lot (select * from all_tab_privs_recd where owner = 'MDBDEV' and table_name = 'COUNTRY_MASTER").
there was a grant using ???(donno wht DBA said) and no direct SELECT grant on that country_master to "devusr". grant command executed. Now, it works :)

Position function query in XSLT

I have a query regarding XSLT mapping
I have two E1EDK03 segments for the same qualifier. But I want the values based on posiotion
Example:
<E1EDK03 SEGMENT="1">
         <IDDAT>012</IDDAT>
         <DATUM>20110720</DATUM>
      </E1EDK03>
     <E1EDK03 SEGMENT="1">
         <IDDAT>012</IDDAT>
         <DATUM>20110905</DATUM>
      </E1EDK03>
If position = 1, I need the 1st set of E1EDK03
<E1EDK03 SEGMENT="1">
         <IDDAT>012</IDDAT>
         <DATUM>20110720</DATUM>
      </E1EDK03>
If position = 2, I need the 2nd set of E1EDK03
<E1EDK03 SEGMENT="1">
         <IDDAT>012</IDDAT>
         <DATUM>20110905</DATUM>
      </E1EDK03>
How to achieve that using XSLT
Thanks

Hi,
Since we have E1EDK03 with same qualifier 012, I don't have any other identifier to distinguish them, because at one instance I need 1st occurrence of E1EKD03 structure and another instance I need the 2nd occurrence of E1EDK03.
If you observe, only DATUM will have different values. I was trying to do that using position function
I have defined a variable to copy the segments and later trying to get the each segment based on position

        <xsl:variable name="e1edk03_qual_012">
               <xsl:for-each select="//IDOC/*">
                    <xsl:if test="starts-with(name(), 'E1EDK03') and IDDAT = '012'">
                         <xsl:copy-of select="."></xsl:copy-of>
                    </xsl:if>
               </xsl:for-each>
        </xsl:variable>
Now the above code has
<E1EDK03 SEGMENT="1">
         <IDDAT>012</IDDAT>
         <DATUM>20110720</DATUM>
      </E1EDK03>
     <E1EDK03 SEGMENT="1">
         <IDDAT>012</IDDAT>
         <DATUM>20110905</DATUM>
      </E1EDK03>
I want to split these into two E1EDK03 segments and use further in the XSLT mapping and populate in the target
Thanks

Datatype issue in function query

Here list_owner_nbr datatype is number in table and I am passing multiple values in function so I used varchar2 in function
but this query is not working. can anybody please help because user will enter multiple values in list_owner_nbr.

I am getting 0 rows returnedThe reason why your first call to function succeed is that anything between single quotes in considered as a single string. so '9, 24, 238, 253, 521, 617, 680' is considered as a single varchar2 value. Your function expectes 4 varchar2 values and the same are being provided.
if I execute

then error occurs ORA-06553: PLS-306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'MARK_CAMP'In second call you are passing 3 varchar2 and 7 numbers (9,24,238,...are being considered as individual paramerter) and hence the error.
Coming to your actual problem :
Here list_owner_nbr datatype is number in table and I am passing multiple values in function so I used varchar2 in function
but this query is not working. can anybody please help because user will enter multiple values in list_owner_nbr.This is called varying in list and the forum FAQ page has a listing for it :

[Function] -Query in result

Hi,
I write the below function to display the bonus of employees
create or replace function Bonus_val (description in varchar2) return number
is
v_bonus number;
cursor j1 is
select description,salary from employee_290512;
begin
for v1 in j1 loop
if v1.description='Tester' then
v_bonus := v1.salary*15;
elsif v1.description='Manager' then
v_bonus := v1.salary*30;
elsif v1.description='Programmer' then
v_bonus := v1.salary*45;
return v_bonus;
end if;
end loop;
end;
whose having a salary range like below
6544.78
1234.56
6661.78
2344.78
2334.78
4322.78
7897.78
1232.78
But while testing the above function it's showing the same values for all category, i"m confused could any one clarify on this please.
Regards
Thelak

I'm not entirely sure what you are trying to accomplish here, but the logic is definitely flawed.
The function as written will attempt to read all of the rows from the employee_29051 table. since there is no predicate in the query, it will very likely do it through a full table scan. When the first row of the table is read from the cursor, it will assign a value to v_bonus based on the description field in the first row, and return that to the caller. given a full table scan every time, it is extremely likely that it will do that based on the same row everytime.
Further, the passed parameter description, is never used. It is also a really bad idea to give parmeters the same name as the columns in your tables.
If you post some sample data form the table, and the expected output from the function call based on that data, perhaps someone could sort you out.

Soundex function query.....???

Hi guys,
Hope you all f9, I have a query regarding Soundex function in ORACLE 9i EE.

Analytical function Query

Hi,
I have below query with mentioned table and data setup. I always want the specific value (in this case 'CAR' or 'BIKE') record as result of this query and if i pass 'ALL' i need that record.
So I use decode function and convert the 'ALL' value to NULL and made it to go last. so on the top always the specific value records will come and from the outer query i can get the 1st record alone.
But the problem is when i run the inner query it works fine but along with outer query I am getting 'ALL' record as the result.
My question is : is the ROW_NUMBER() fuction alias doesn't have scope outside of the inner query.
Note : if i use rownum = 1 instead of rrn=1 it works fine.
Is there anyother alternate solution or any bug in this query.
Table1
col1 col2
A CAR
A BIKE
B ALL
Query:
SELECT indicator
FROM (SELECT indicator, ROW_NUMBER() OVER( ORDER BY DECODE(col2, 'ALL', NULL) asc NULLS LAST) rrn
FROM table1
WHERE (col2 = <Input specific value>
OR col2 = 'ALL')
WHERE rrn = 1;
Thanks in advance.

you did not excatly what you ment to do:

with table1 as (

select 'A', 'BIKE' from dual union all
select 'B', 'ALL' from dual )
SELECT col1
FROM (
SELECT col1, ROW_NUMBER() OVER( ORDER BY DECODE(col2, 'ALL', NULL, 1) asc NULLS LAST) rrn
FROM table1
WHERE (col2 = 'CAR'
OR col2 = 'ALL')

A The "scope" of the row_number() is stable, so you can refer to it from the outer query.

Description
When an Employee is changing from job/function, am struggling to get incremental number / count for that employ based on no. of funtionid changed.
I need a count only when an employee is going to do something else (another function).
The example above is showing how the count output should be.
am not sure it i need to use any analytical function, any help would be appreciated.
and many thanks in advance for reading my question

Something like
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 with x as (
2    select 1 empid, 2 functionid, sysdate dt from dual union all
3    select 1, 3, sysdate+1 from dual union all
4    select 1, 4, sysdate+2 from dual union all
5    select 1, 4, sysdate+3 from dual union all
6    select 2, 3, sysdate+4 from dual union all
7    select 2, 3, sysdate+5 from dual union all
8    select 2, 1, sysdate+6 from dual
9 )
10 select empid,
11         functionid,
12         sum(case when functionid = prior_functionid
13                  then 0
14                  else 1
15               end) over (partition by empid
16                              order by dt)-1 cnt
