Group by calculated column?

How can one group by a colum that is derived? E.g.
select
a.col1,
a.col2,
(select count(*) from table_b b where b.ix=a.ix) as foo,
count(*)
from
table_a a
group by ??????
Unlike "order by" I cannot simply "group by 1,2,3", and calling out the volumn alias "foo" doesn't work either.

SELECT   a.col1
,        a.col2
,        SUM(DECODE(b.ROWID,NULL,0,1)) foo
,        COUNT(*)
FROM     table_a       a
,        table_b       b
WHERE    a.ix = b.ix (+)
GROUP BY a.col1
,        a.col2

Grouping By a Calculated Column Issue

Hi,
I have 2 issues when I try to group by a view using a calculated column:
It will show the number of items under each group but you expand is not showing any items at all
It will show the item reproduced 333 times.
The first one it happens to all the lists and libraries on SharePoint 2013. However the second issue happened only in a document library that holds the employee Documents. The view is grouped by Document type column and the Employee column ( which is the
calculated column). It shows multiple versions of the same document as stated above.
Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
According to your description, there is an issue when grouping by Calculated column.
It was a known issue in the early build version of SharePoint 2013, it is already fixed in the August 2013 CU:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/steve_chen/archive/2013/03/26/3561010.aspx
I suggest you install August 2013 CU or the later versions and then create new list for a test.

Hi Rajani,
can you please paste your calculated formula here? Try this formula =TEXT(Created,"yyyy")&TEXT(Created,"mm") to check it is working correctly with numeric month or not?
Thanks.

SharePoint 2013 Make Calculated Column based on Custom Column

In SharePoint 2013, I am trying to create a Calculated Column that is a shortened display of another Custom Column. The Calculated Column would just show the first 100 characters concatenated with "..." like in the following formula:
=LEFT([CustomColumn],100)&"..."
However, every time that I go to create this calculated column, SharePoint doesn't provide my [CustomColumn] in the "Insert Column:" list. If I type it in anyway, SharePoint throws an error.
Details on my Column, List, and Site below:
Col. Type: Multiple lines of text
Col. Group: Custom Columns
Col. Text Type: Enhanced rich text
List Content Type: Custom Type Inherits from Event
Site Type: Publishing
Also, to no avail, I found this similar post (link below), but creating the Site Column and Calculated Column
before adding it to the Content Type did not work for me.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/26a7517e-ba43-4c49-95aa-3e6f7f4207ba/calculated-field-in-content-type-not-working
Anyone out there know how to coax SharePoint into submission?!

Multi lines of text are one of the types of columns which can't be used by calculated columns/fields. Among such unusable columns are also Lookup columns, People columns, External Columns, MMS columns, etc.

Hi,
In the report I have two worksheet. The Ist worksheet has the same calculated columns as 2nd worksheet. Even the calculations are also the same. The only difference is I use different folder for the 2nd worksheet. For 2nd worksheet layout only the calculated columns will not display the result.The other columns displayed the result properly. Even in the Ist worksheet all the columns including calculated columns displayed the result correctly.The calculations are same in the 2nd worsheet with calculation names different and items coming from different folder. As these calculations are working properly in Ist worksheet,why its not appearing in the 2nd worksheet? The query I paste before is the Discoverer show sql query for 2nd worksheet.
Please help.

Calculated column doesn't expand the items in list view

Dear All,
I have a calculated column
Week with formula, =INT((DAY([Start Time])+6)/7)
in one of my lists. I'm displaying a view of this list in a SharePoint page, group by column Year and column
Week. But when the page is loaded with items, I'm only able to expand the list view up to
Year column level. When I click on Week section it doesn't show / expand the items under it.
Further more when I use a different calculated column with a function like (=TEXT(Date,"yyyy")) I don't get above error.
Any Idea?
Thanks,
Dilip

Hi Dilip,
According to your description, an issue occurs when you try to expand the subgroups in a list contains Calculated column.
It is an known issue in SharePoint 2013, there are some workarounds I can provide as below:
As the first workaround, you can set the groupings to expanded by default, though it would make the grouping collapsed by default, then the grouping would function
normal.
As the second workaround, you can create a SharePoint Designer Workflow and add a “Do Calculation” action to calculate the value you needed. Then add a “Update List
Item” action to add the value to a “Single line of text” column. We will use the “Single line of text” column in the grouping instead of the Calculated column.
As the third workaround, you can install the latest update of SharePoint to fix the issue for new Document Libraries. For the existing libraries, after the installing
the update, you can use PowerShell to make an update to each item in the library, it will make the old items get normal in the grouping.
About how to update list items in a list/library using PowerShell, a demo as below for your reference:
$web = Get-SPWeb http://YourServer/
$list = $web.Lists["list name"]
foreach ($item in $list.Items)
$item.SystemUpdate();

Problem with binding value on the UI from a calculated column in the view

I have calculated field "Readiness" in my db view, which gets calculated based on other columns in the same table. I have added new column to my EO using "Add from table" option and added the same column from to VO using "Add from EO" option. In my application, I will update a particular date field in the UI and this calculated column "Readiness" in the db will be set to yes or no and this logic is working fine, both date date field and calculated field are in same view object. I have added a attribute binding to this "Readiness" column in my view page. The problem is the calculated column value does not reflect the new value in the db, it shows the old value. I have tried different refresh option for the iterator and ppr option for the field binding. Even after reloading the page, the value shown on the UI page is different from the value in db, other bindings on the UI page works fine, not sure any special settings are required for the Calculated columns. any ideas are appreciated.
Thanks for your help,
Surya

I tried to add soms debugging statements in the EO and getters method, the calcaulated column is not picking the value in db view. I'm not any special iterator/field settings are required at BC level. I'm a newbie, any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

Calculated Column using IF statement with DATEIF formula

I have a dated column that includes a date when a position is vacated otherwise the field is blank if the position is still filled. I want a calculated column to return the number of days the position has been vancant from the date that is listed to today.
So the following was entered & works.....
=DATEDIF([Vacancy Date],Today,"d")
The delima is that it is also returning a value when there is no date in the dated column but it returns a funky number 42,069. What I want it to return when the dated column is blank is blank or zero would work too. I don't know how to incorporate that
into this formula.

You are correct it no longer reads that column as Today.... So is there anyway to make this a calculated column for my purposes?
I'm going to use SharePoint list for a Position Pool & managing positions within a large department. What I'm attempting to do with this column is have a current count of the number of days since a position has been vacant. Our system that I pull the
position data from will give me the vacancy date for those positions & where the position is filled the date field will be blank. So I'm wanting this column to return a 0 when the position is listed as filled & the number of days vacant based on the
vacancy date column I have. Is there any way to make this work in SharePoint? Obviously I can make that work in Excel however my task was to load raw data into SharePoint & have SharePoint do the work if possible with little to no human intervention prior
to loading to SharePoint.
Thank you,
MMHagman

DAX - IF statement and filters within calculated column

Hi all,
I've got a bit of a complex formula I'm trying to run, but I'm not quite there yet. I don't know where/how/if I can place a filter within my IF statement for a calculated column due to so many variables. I either get errors or wrong numbers.
Hope the following makes sense.
Here is my formula for the calculated column [Years Since Last Task]:
=IF (ISBLANK([Last Task Date]) && ([Current Role]<>BLANK()), DIVIDE([Quarters],4), FLOOR(1. * ( today() - [Last Task Date]) / 365, 0.25))
Problem: I am getting "114.25" for Ken....but I want a blank result instead. Meaning, I need to also filter out any name (row) who has a blank [Current Role]. How do
I add a filter to this current formula? Is one more step of filtering possible in this IF statement? (Maybe I shouldn't use an IF statement, and try CALCULATE instead?)
Below is the table 'Work' for you to see what's happening.
Name
Quarters
Last Task Date
Current Role
Years Since Last Task

you can use nested IF-statements here:
=IF (ISBLANK([Current Role]),
BLANK(),
IF(ISBLANK([Last Task Date]),
DIVIDE([Quarters],4),
FLOOR(1. * ( today() - [Last Task Date]) / 365,0.25)

Creating a Status column (IF statement/calculated column)

I'm developing list for managing a project with 11 columns each representing a project milestone.
We'll call them A,B,C...K.
"A" representing a status of "Project Started" and K representing "Project Complete" with various statuses in between.
When a milestone has been reached, the date is input into the appropriate column. So when the project is complete, there will be dates in all columns A-K
I wish to incorporate a new column that indicates the current status depending on if columns A-K have been filled in.
So if all columns are blank, a status of "Awaiting start" is indicated.
If column A is filled in with a date, a status of "A" is indicated.
If columns A and column B are filled in then a status of "B" is indicated.
If columns A, B and C are filled in then a status of "C" is indicated. * * If all the columns are filled in with dates, a status of "K" is indicated.
Any ideas? Some form of If statement in a calculated Status column?

Hello,
You can use nested if statement something like below.
For example, I have one column named as 'Score' and the requirement is to perform quartile breakup based on score so for that I can use below calculated formula in my calculated column.
=IF(INT(Score)>85,"85 Above"
,IF(AND(85>=INT(Score),INT(Score)>=80),"85-80"
,IF(AND(79>=INT(Score),INT(Score)>=75),"79-75"
,IF(INT(Score)<75,"Below 75","0"))))
Have below links for more details.

If statement for calculated column

Hi, I need to know if its possible to do the following in a calculated column
if column1 value => 1
display the name of column1 + the value of column 1
is this possible?

Hi hein,
You can return your calculated column value as "Number" type, set the "blank space" in your formula, see the formula as follow,
=IF([A4 Printing Paper Box]>0,"[A4 Printing Paper Box]"&[A4 Printing Paper Box]," ")
