How to change data type from Integer to Double?

In a data set, BIP treat Oracle number type column as Integer. How to change it to double?

Hi,
This could be possible with the tcode RSD2 in BW.
But before you do this you need to remove this KF from the cubes/dso in which they are used.Otherwise i don think you can do this.
Once the change is done you could add them back to the DataTargets and load the data as required.

How to change data type of content type column.

Hi all,
I am having one content type. I have 10 columns in it. There are two rich text columns in my content type. I have attached this content type to pages library. I want to change the data type of this rich text column to "Full
HTML content with formatting and constraints for publishing".
Please assist me with this issue.
amol

Hi,
From your description, my understanding is that you want to change the data type for rich text column in content type.
The field type of Full HTML content with formatting and constraints for publishing is "Invalid", you could refer to this article:https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.spfieldtype.aspx.
You also could test it by create a Full HTML content with formatting and constraints for publishing column and get the its type with C# code below:
//change the URL to your SharePoint site
using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://sp/sites/sharepoint2013"))
using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
SPFieldType type = web.Fields["Column name"].Type;
I have tested it with the PowerShell, it cannot hange the rich text column to “Full HTML content with formatting and constraints for publishing” column. If you want to edit the rich text column, you could not change the type of the column as the screenshot
below:
As a workaround, you could follow these steps to accomplish your requirement:
Create a “Full HTML content with formatting and constraints for publishing” type column in the content type.
Enter your site columns by clicking gear icon -> Site Settings -> Site columns under Web Designer Galleries under section.
Find and delete the rich text column you want to change.
Find the column you have created in step 1, and change the column’s name to the name of the text column you have deleted in step 3.
But you will lose the data of the rich text column in pages library with this method.

How to Change Date-Type to Char-Type with Format?, When it.....

I'd like to Change format Data from Date-Type Column to char-type
especially, as 'YYYYMMDD' Format, But There are some Error Message.
I already know, to_char(sysdate, 'yyyymmdd') from dual,
But When it Applied my Table (has Date Type Column )....
That SQL was Error...
Table Description
===================
GUBUN     NOT NULL     NUMBER(7)
POLCD     NOT NULL     NUMBER(7)
TITLE          VARCHAR2(200)
VALUE          NUMBER(7)
SIDATE          VARCHAR2(20)
SQL
================================
SELECT TO_CHAR(SIDATE,'YYYYMMDD') as V_SIDATE , -- <== Error
TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'YYYYMMDD') as V_TODAY -- <== Ok
FROM T_POLL
Error Msg
================================
ORA-01722: invalid number
.....I don't know Why... plz. help me, it's Urgent...-_-;
ICQ : 40751557
MSN : [email protected]
Finally, sorry for my poor English...

The reason for the error is you are applying a TO_CHAR function to a character datatype. SIDATE is a character. That field should be a date field. If for some reason, you need it to stay as a character field then you will need to change it to a date then change it back to a character.
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(SIDATE,'put format here'),'YYYYMMDD')

how will we change the datatype and width of a text item in runtime.
set_item_property(itemname,fixed_length,20);--- it is for width.

You cannot change the datatype at runtime.
Start with a CHAR item then do the corresponding cast (NUMBER or DATE)

How to change date format in BR?

Hi all!
Does anybody know how to change date format in BR?
I created global variable with type DateAsNumber and usage type run-time promt and used it in BR
Then I launched a BR on the form and chose necessary date. Date stored in MM/DD/YYYY format, but I need DD/MM/YYYY.
I tried to change format through Planning but then I recieved uncorect result(for instance, I selected 4(April)/14/2009 but it was stored as 4/02/2010)

Hi,
the date is always stored the same in Essbase. I think it's YYYYMMDD.
You can change the format you enter the date in webforms and business rules by changing your planning application settings (Preferences->Display Options).
Cheers.

How to change date format for FM ?

Experts !
i am trying to use FM DATE_TO_PERIOD_CONVERT. for this FM the input date formate is mmddyyyy
but my variable returns in yyyymmdd. bcoz of that my FM doesnt understand the input date.
how do i do this? i am very poor in abap skills so will not do too much of codeing to convert.
thanks

Thanks Gharu !
I do get the correct formate using your code. but the problem if i debug my code goes till the FM and then it kicks it out. i dont know why.
The data type what you have define in your code is not what i have in my code. is it bcoz of that.
In your code..l_date type sydatum
in my code ...l_date like sydatum <-----Do you think i sould make it type ?
Also, in your code ..
l_olddate(8) type c,
l_newdate(8) type c,
while in my code..
l_olddate LIKE sy-datum
l_newdate LIKE sy-datum
Do u think i should change data type ?
If yes , then it will be big change for me. can you make it according to my DATA TYPE ?
thanks..i am waiting....

Changing data types of fields in structures

Hello,
   Currently we are working for upgrade to ECC 6.0 .
   In some transactions we are using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA to create material.
We have some additional fields in MARA and MARC table , which we fill using BAPI_TE_MARA and BAPI_TE_MARC structures.
    In these structures we have different data types for fields earlier in 4.6C
Now this function module is only working if we change data types of fields in these structures only to char type. It is going for dump , if we maintain any other data type.
Could any body tell me why should we change for char data type ?
Regards,
SATYA

Hi,
Check enhancement category (Extras --> Enhancement Category) for structures before enhancement. For example, for BAPI_TE_MARA structure, enhancement category is given as character type or numeric type. That means you can add the fields of data type only C and N. No other data types are allowed. If you select as not classified then you can add any data type. This option plays important role while enhancement.

How to change data source name and context root during deployment

Hi,
Env:
WLS 10.1.3
JDev 11.1.1.6
Hudson
I need to deploy two instances of my ADF application on the same development enviroment. We are using Hudson to deploy. My question is how to change data source name and application context root before second deployment.
Kuba

I don't believe there is an inbuilt facility to do this.
Previously how I've done this is when checking files out using Hudson jovs, before the build I then use an Ant extension called XmlTask (http://www.oopsconsultancy.com/software/xmltask/) to modify the required XML files.
Can I ask why you're doing this in the first place please? Multi-tenancy? 2 versions of the same app?
