How can i restrict a variable to a subset of Values

Hello, I've a variable say on Document type for a AP report, this document type  MD can have bunch of values.. but in the variable selection when they run the Query i've to restrict the selection to only to few document types.
how can i do that?
I try restricting the varaible and attaching those values or default values but it doesnt restrict the selection to a subset it brings back all the MD values.
thanks
Mayil

Hello ,
           You create a user input variable on Document type, in the selection screen what you enter, for those document types only report will be displayed , if you want to check after the report is run in the bex tool bar there is a option called layout->display text elements->variables , then will get the filtered value which you gave in the user input.
ofcourse when you drill down with that characteristic it will bring all the values.
hope it is clear,
assign points if useful

  • How can i use substitution variable

    Hai All
    This is my sql statement
    SELECT (TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(Intime,'DD-MON-YYYY')||' '||
    TO_CHAR(0815,'0000'),'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI')-intime) * 24*60
    from dail_att where to_char(intime,'hh24mi') between 0700 and 0815 ;
    Here my table name called Dailyattendance
    Intime field is declared as Date Type
    So now i have hardcoded 0815 and now my intime is subtracted from this time so i can calculate the employee
    coming late so how can i use substitution variable here to give the value at run time
    Ie i need to give 0815 instead or any other time at runtime
    Thanks In advance
    Srikkanth.M

    Where exactly are you planing to use it? Is sqlplus or at any other front end?
    One way is to use below given SQL
    SELECT   (  TO_DATE (   TO_CHAR (intime, 'DD-MON-YYYY')
                         || ' '
                         || TO_CHAR (:TIME_VAR, '0000'),
                         'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI'
              - intime
           * 24
           * 60
      FROM dail_att
    WHERE TO_CHAR (intime, 'hh24mi') BETWEEN 0700 AND 0815;*009*

  • How can I restrict maintaining the same customer for different CC Areas?

    Hi All,
    I have a problem about maintaining customer credit limits via tcode FD32.
    User can maintain a customer in different credit control areas (CCA) and these CCAs are belong to different company codes.
    How can i restrict the user not to update another countries' credit limit?
    Your fast reply will be highly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Bilal

    Hi,
    I donu2019t think so there is any configuration for this kind of purpose.
    You can only do by the authorisation.
    Just give the user authorisation that only this person can change the value of the credit control area.
    And I think so that will be usefull also because if every body has authority then any body can change the limit which is not good.
    First they have to take permission from the authorised person and if he approved then only he should change limits.
    So just try out the user authorisation for your purpose.

  • How can I restrict Adobe Creative Cloud to run for just one mac user?

    Can anyone help with this please ...
    (This is about how the Adobe Creative Cloud app works with OS X User accounts.  I have posted it on Adobe's Support forums, but nobody there had the solution.  Perhaps someone from the Apple/OSX end can help?)
    I'm running Adobe CC on a 2010 iMac (OS X Yosemite).  I'm delighted with it, however ...
    Several family members share the same iMac using separate user accounts.  Adobe CC seems to run on startup for all of them which is annoying for them as they get messages about updates etc, plus it takes up unnecessary system resources (particularly as we tend to use 'switch user' and Activity Monitor shows an instance of Adobe CC running for each user).
    It's not listed in the Login Items list under System Preferences->Users & Groups, so I can't disable it there for other users, However it appears as an icon in the menu bar for any/all users a few moments after logging in - so something is triggering it to run, but I can't see what. 
    How can I restrict Adobe CC to run just for my user account please?
    Thanks
    Richard

    The startup item is likely inside the /Library/LaunchAgents folder.
    It will be something named like com.adobe.creativecloud.plist.
    Move it out of the /Library/LaunchAgents folder into the User/Library/LaunchAgents folder for all the users that need it.
    I don't know if it will work, but as long as Adobe wrote the launch agent correctly, it will work. Given that it is Adobe we're talking about, my bet is no.

  • How can I restrict access to add. internal hard drive by account?

    Hello! Okay, so I am my computer's administrator, and I have a secondary 'guest' account that anyone else can use. So, I know that all my data on my main, OS hard drive is secure from the guest account accessing it, but what about the additional hard drive that I have installed?
    I have a good deal of sensitive data and files stored (and aliased) on my second internal drive that I do not care for 'guest' users to stumble upon. How can I restrict access to the secondary storage hard drive from my Guest login account, and/or just plain hide it from it? Surely, there is a need for this that has brought about a solution. Any tips/advice/solutions?
    Thanks!!!

    However within OAF on the application it doesn't.
    what doesnt work, do you get errors or nothing ?XX_TOP is defined in adovars.env only. Anywhere else this has to go?
    No, it is read from the adovars.env file only.Thanks

  • How can I restrict options result to only one cost center?

    In transaction KS03 (Display cost Center), when I search for a cost center (hit F4), I have an option to drill down by Company code, controlling area, Cost Center Category, Person Responsible etc.
    My question is, how can I restrict users to select only controlling area they are authorized for ? Is there any authorization object I can use to restrict user's access to particular value in the table CSKS ?
    Thanks,
    Karan.

    Hi Karan,
    If you want to restrict on the values users can return when using F4 lookup then there may be some useful info in the following link:

  • How can I restrict certain apps to cellular data only?

    Product Name: iPhone 6
    Product iOS: 8.3
    Background: I listen to Pandora at work through my iPhone 6. My work has pandora traffic blocked through their WiFi network. I want to keep my iPhone connected to the work WiFi because 1) I don't want to turn on and off my WiFi on my phone 2) I want to my email and other apps to use WiFi since they are not blocked.
    Current Workarounds (not a solutions):
    1) Turn off and on WiFi on iPhone 6- This is a pain/hassle and I forget to turn the WiFi back on.
    2) Switching to a different streaming music providers that aren't blocked by work WiFi- I pay for Pandora One and I like this service the best. I really don't want to switch.
    3) Download music to iPhone memory- I pay for Pandora One and I'd like to use it.
    4) Jailbreak- Not sure if this a solution but I'd rather not jailbreak my device.
    Question: How can I restrict certain apps (Pandora) to use cellular data only?
    Best Regards,
    Chasen

    The network settings in iOS are global and do not support assigning specific networks to specific apps. You cannot do what you describe.

  • How can i restrict the Expenditure Type values at a specific OU ?

    Dear Guys,
    I would like to ask about the Expenditure Types,
    I have implemented two projects for different Operating Units ,
    when navigating to any Projects responsibilty,and navigating the Expenditure Type field
    the values exist are all the values implemented across the OU not the values entered at this OU
    How can i restrict the Expenditure Type values at a specific OU
    Regards
    Amr Hussien

    Hello
    When you set up a project there is an option called Transaction Control.
    This option allow you to list the allowed or restricted elements of costs for the project.
    You may enter the transaction control on a project template and that will be copied to any new project.
    The cost elements may be expenditure types, expenditures categories, suppliers, employees, etc.
    In your case, I suggest to set up specific project templates for each operating units. On each template enter the list of allowed expenditures types for that OU.
    Doing so, the system restricts users from entering any expenditure item, supplier invoice, purchase cost etc, against an expenditure type, which is not allowed.

  • How can I set a variable number of values in a SQL IN clause?

    Hi,
    How can I set a variable number of values in a SQL IN clause without having to change the text of the SQL statement each time?
    I read the link http://radio.weblogs.com/0118231/2003/06/18.html. as steve wrote.
    SELECT *
    FROM EMP
    WHERE ENAME IN (?)
    But we need the steps not to create type in the system and would there be any other solution if we would like to use variable number of values in a SQL IN clause ?
    We are using JDeveloper 10.1.3.2 with Oracle Database 10.1.3.2
    Thanks

    can you please explain why the solution from steve is not the right solution for you.

  • How can i restrict the qty/value at the time of invoice

    Hi,
    Can you plesae tell me at the time of MIRO how can i restrict the user not to enter the qty more than in MIGO & PO
    Thanx

    You cannot restrict the qty in MIRO. because it is used for partial invoice receipt.
    E.g  in some cases 100 nos of qty might have received in one GR. But the supplier may give 3 invoices for this. that is the reason u cant restict this

  • How can I access global variables in a loaded Applescript?

    How can I access global variables in a loaded script, in Xcode, ApplescriptObjC? Basically, I have a global variable defined in my parent script using "property", and I need to modify objects connected to those variables inside of a loaded script.
    Example:
    Parent script:
    script AppDelegate
    property myTextField : missing value
    //linked to a text field object
    tell myScript to myAwesomeHandler_()
    end script
    Loaded script:
    on myAwesomeHandler_()
    myTextField's setStringValue_("The new Xcode is so glitchy ugh")
    //changes value of linked text field of parent script
    end myAwesomeHandler_
    The problem is, the variable is undefined in the Loaded script, and I need it to have the same value as the parent script, and I don't want to pass the variable through the Handler. Any ideas?

    I think want you are looking to do will need to be done in two steps. Because myTextField needs to be a property for the ObjectiveC part of the code you cannot turn it into a global.
    However if you make a temporary variable global assign the string to it in the handler then set myTextField off of it.
    global myTextFieldGlobal
    script AppDelegate 
    property myTextField : missing value 
    //linked to a text field object 
    tell myScript to myAwesomeHandler_() 
    myTextField's setStringValue_(myTextFieldGlobal)
    end script 
    on myAwesomeHandler_() 
    set myTextFieldGlobal to "The new Xcode is so glitchy ugh"
    //changes value of linked text field of parent script 
    end myAwesomeHandler_ 
    I know you stated you did not want the handler to return a value but I have to ask why? Global's, imo, are not a good idea and really should be used as a last resort.
    One other possibility is to pass a reference to the property to the handler. Not sure if that works in AS of if that would satisfy our requirement of not passing the variable through the handler
    <edit>
    Another though have you tried to define the property outside the script?  That is
    property myTextField : missing value
    script AppDelegate
    Not sure if that will work.
    You might also want to have a look at Scope of Properties and Variables Declared in a Script Object

  • Using action script 2 how can i send a variable value to a dynamic textbox on a different keyframe?

    using action script 2 how can i send a variable value to a dynamic textbox on a different keyframe?

    Thanks for your swift response.
    That sounds like a good solution, but the code I have on frame 2 is this
    timer = 0;
    countup = function(){
    timer++;
    countupInterval = setInterval(countup,100);
    If I added the same actionscript to frame 3 which has a dynamic textbox with a variable timer attached wouldn't it just put the timer back to 0? What I want is the last known value that was given when it was in frame 2.
    I am thinking of temple run here, I am trying to caculate the total distance(set in the timer variable) from the previous try.
    Hope this makes sense.

  • How can I transfer a variable to regexp_replace function

    Hi,
    In addition to my question from yesterday, I went up one (little) level for the next question.
    How can I transfer a variable to regexp_replace function?
    I am getting the value of the variables from from APEX Items.
    The value of item :P105_OLD_NAME should be replaced with the value from :P105_NAME APEX item.
    The projects in PROJECT_NAME field are separated by “:”
    select * from infoux_proj;
    HOSTNAME PROJECT_NAME
    host1 proj2:proj1
    host3 proj1
    host4 proj12:proj1
    host5 proj3
    host2 proj1:proj3:sunproj1
    this is my code:
    declare
    v_old_proj_list varchar(100);
    v_new_proj_list varchar(100);
    begin
    for host in (select a.hostname, project_name
    from infoux_proj a,
    (select hostname
    from PROJECT_NAMES_WITH_HOSTNAMES
    where name = :P105_OLD_NAME ) b
    where a.HOSTNAME=b.hostname)
    loop
    select project_name ,
    regexp_replace(project_name,'(^|:)(:P105_OLD_NAME)(:|$)','\1:P105_NAME \3') new_project
    into v_old_proj_list, v_new_proj_list
    from infoux_proj
    where hostname=host.hostname;
    update infoux_proj
    set project_name=v_new_proj_list
    where hostname=host.hostname;
    end loop;
    end;
    Thanks,
    Sheli

    Hi, Sheli
    Inside quotes, :p105_old_name will not be taken as a variable name. If you want to use the value of :p105_old_name in a string which its otherwise a literal, then you can concatenate the variable to the literal parts, using the || operator.
    You can do soemthing like this:
    REGEXP_REPLACE ( project_name
                , '(^|:)(' || :P105_OLD_NAME
                             || ')(:|$)'
                , '\1'       || :P105_NAME
                             || ' \3'
                )               AS new_projectI'll bet there's a much simpler way to do what you want. Instead of having two SELECTs, a cursor FOR loop and an UPDATE, you can probably do what you need to with just a single UPDATE or MERGE. It would be more efficient, too. If you'd like help, post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for all relevant tables and columns azs the exist before this code is run, a couple of sets of values for the bind variables, and the results you'd like to see (that is, the contents of the changed table) for each set, given the same sample data.
    Always say which version of Oracle you're using.
