How to create a year to date filter?

All,
I would like to create a date range filter on the opportunity close date column so that the report retrieves records with a close date between the beginning of the current calendar year and the current date.
I am having trouble using date/time functions to establish the first day of the current calendar year.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan

I'm so sorry... I missed this thread and have not replied.
You could place a filter on the Fiscal Year column in the Date Dimension folder of your subject area to get Fiscal Year to Date (most of the time):
Date."Fiscal Year" = VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.CURRENT_YEAR)
This would likely not work, however, if the current year is 2008 and you are already in Fiscal Year 2009.
To allow for this, your filters become much more complex. I will use Opportunity Close Date in my example.
First, we want to ensure that no data in the report is more than one year old...
TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY, Opportunity."Close Date", CURRENT_DATE) < 366
With the next filter, we want to ensure that the data in the report is not from months outside of the fiscal year. You can do this with a CASE statement in a hidden column.
CASE WHEN MONTH(Opportunity."Close Date") > 06 AND YEAR(Opportunity."Close Date") < VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.CURRENT_YEAR) THEN 'Current Fiscal Year'
WHEN MONTH(Opportunity."Close Date") < 06 AND YEAR(Opportunity."Close Date") = VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.CURRENT_YEAR) THEN 'Current Fiscal Year'
ELSE 'Not Current Fiscal Year' END
Your Filter will be:
CASE WHEN MONTH(Opportunity."Close Date") > 06 AND YEAR(Opportunity."Close Date") < VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.CURRENT_YEAR) THEN 'Current Fiscal Year'
WHEN MONTH(Opportunity."Close Date") < 06 AND YEAR(Opportunity."Close Date") = VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.CURRENT_YEAR) THEN 'Current Fiscal Year'
ELSE 'Not Current Fiscal Year' END = 'Current Fiscal Year'
Assuming my code is correct, July 2007 - June 2008 evaluates as current fiscal year and July 2008+ evaluates as not current fiscal year.
There are bound to be other ways to accomplish this, but this is one method that should work.

How to create a Year to Date Query when only Monthly values are in the data

Hi SDN community,
Is it possible to create a query by dragging in the fiscal year period characteristic , and any other required characteristics in the rows,
and then use functionality to have columns of data that add up the previous periods.
ex. the month of sept, = Jul + aug + sep
i basically want to see 12 columns of Actuals,
and then a trend line, to add up those columns.
If we load up the data with a YTD time variant out of the system and load, then this is fine, but can we do it with the query and how.
Thank you.
Simon

Hi,
ex. the month of sept, = Jul + aug + sep
Of course it is possible in Query,
-->Create a formula on the key fig.
NoDim(<Key Fig Name>)
-->in Property of that formula, in Calculation Tab
-->Check the Cumulative Property
-->Select Either Along Rows or Along Columns as per your requirement
please give more details, so I can provide Full steps for that..

How to create a variance on data that exists iIn only one database column

How to create a variance on data that exists iIn only one database column?
I'm trying to create a calculation to show the difference between the budgets for two different years in a Discoverer crosstab query.
I'm using the lag function to repeat the value of a column for the current year and the year before.

Lag and lead seems to be the only choice and they work excellent. Checkout the new 10g Database features. There is new SQL modal clause which might give additional and powerful analytics but in this case lag and lead should be sufficient.

1198886 - How to create a calendar style report in Crystal Reports XI
Symptom
How do you create a calendar style report in Crystal Reports XI?
Resolution
NOTE
This solution involves advanced report design concepts. The user should be familiar with creating formulas, grouping, formatting objects, formatting sections, creating subreports and linking them.
The first part of this solution involves creating the report and the first group level:
Before creating the report, create a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet that contains a column called "date" with each day of the year in date format.
After identifying your data source and tables, create a new report.
Add the date table from the Excel spreadsheet to the report.
Insert a group based on the date field. In the dialog This section will be printed for, click For each month.
Select the Use customized group name based on a formula option and enter this formula (substituting the Excel table and field name for Sheet1_.date if yours is different.):
Monthname(Month({Sheet1_.date}))
Insert a new Page Header section.
Drag the group name field to the Page Header_a section.
Open the Section Expert, select the Group Header #1 section, and select Suppress.
In the Section Expert, click the Group Footer #1 section, and select New Page After. In its conditional formula button, enter this formula:
Not OnLastRecord
In the main report, create a formula called {@Weeknumber} that contains the following syntax:
DatePart("ww",{Sheet1_.date})
In the second section of this solution, you will be creating a second group level:
Insert a group (Group #2), based on the {@Weeknumber} formula.
In the Section Expert, select the Group Footer #2 section, and select Suppress.
Create a formula for each day of the week. Name them {@Sun}, {@Mon}, and so on, using the following syntax:
If DayOfWeek({Sheet1_.date}) = 1 then Day({sheet1_.date})
In this formula, the number 1 represents Sunday. For the rest of the six formulas, change the number to 2 for Monday, 3 for Tuesday, 4 for Wednesday, 5 for Thursday, 6 for Friday and 7 for Saturday.
Add these seven formulas to the Details section. Arrange them in a row, spacing them equally along the page, starting with the formula for Sunday.
For each of the formulas, insert a Maximum summary function.
Drag these seven summary fields to the Group Header #2 section.
Drag the lower boundary of the header down until it is the size that you want the square for the calendar days to be.
Suppress the Report Header, Details, Page Footer, and Report Footer sections.
Right-click and format each of the summary fields. In the Number tab click Customize and select Suppress if Zero.
Draw a box over Page Header_b and extend this down to the bottom of the Group Header #2 section. Then draw vertical lines from the top of the box to the bottom to divide the days, and draw a horizontal line along the top of Group Header #2 to divide the weeks.
For both the box and the vertical lines, use the Format Editor to select Extend to Bottom of Section when Printing.
Position the seven summary fields from Group Header #2 where you would like them to be in the day boxes. In Page Header_b, arrange the column labels ('Sun', 'Mon', and so on) so that they are centered above each square.
The final section will guide you through the Subreport creation part of this solution. Create seven subreports, one for each day of the week. Begin with the subreport for Sunday:
Create a subreport called "Sun". Select the data source for the data that your calendar data will display.
Add the data field(s) to the Details section of the subreport that you want to appear in the calendar squares.
Suppress the remaining sections.
Place the subreport in the "Sunday" square of the Group Header #2 of the main report. Adjust its size to fit the square.
In the subreport, create a formula called {@WeekNumber} with the following syntax:
DatePart("ww",{Appointments.Appointment Date})
In the Select Expert click show formula and add this syntax:
Year({Sheet_1.date}) = 2007 and DayOfWeek({Sheet1_.date}) = 1
In this formula, 2007 is the year of your calendar and 1 is for Sunday.
Link the subreport to the main report using the {@Weeknumber} formula from each.
In the main report, right-click the subreport and click Format Subreport.
In the Common tab, enter this syntax into the conditional formula button next to the Suppress check box:
Maximum({@Sun},{@Weeknumber}) = 0
Repeat steps 1 to 8 for the other days of the week, ensuring that you substitute the correct values for the corresponding day of the week.

How to create a folder with date each day?

I've not used Automator, just once to "create" a workflow to create a new folder with a name; but what I want is this:
Each morning at 12:01 am, a new folder to be created with the correct date as the name of the folder.
So for tomorrow, Sunday 23 Nov 2008 at 12:01, I'd suddenly have a folder on my Hard Drive that would have the date like 23 Nov 2008 or 11/23/2008 or 23-11-2008 or similar.
Then at the end of a week I'd have 7 of these; - but I can manually trash them-- I want to create these on my HD since I backup via SuperDuper! each morning (automatically) at 3:35 am (incremental backup to an external La Cie HD) and I want to know if was done, so by having a folder with the date on it I can open the external HD and if I see that that folder with the recent date is there, then I'm confident the BackUp was run.
I have been able to create a workflow to create a folder in Automator, but not sure how to:
1. Have the folder created automatically each day at 12:01
2. How to have the folder label be the date
Thanks for any comments or certainly any other work-around or other way to do this or similar.
Regards, Steve

Open the AppleScript Editor. Copy the following into it:
set dt to date string of (current date)
set mth to word 2 of dt
set dy to word 3 of dt
set yr to word 4 of dt
set dtt to mth & " " & dy & " " & yr
tell application "Finder"
make new folder at alias "Macintosh HD:Users:username:Desktop:" with properties {name:dtt}
end tell
Amend the path with your Hard Disk name and username. Save as an application to anywhere suitable.
In iCal, set up an event with a daily repeat and an alarm at the time you want it: under 'Alarm' choose 'Open file': then in the next menu which will appear change from 'iCal' to 'Other' and navigate to your script. Enter the date and time.
Your folder will be created as required: iCal does not need to be running. This script gives the folder name as, for example, 'November 22 2008', but it's easy to amend the script if you want something a bit different - for example:
property zro : ""
set yr to year of (current date) as string
set dy to day of (current date)
set mt to month of (current date)
set dyy to dy as string
set nmm to the number of items in dyy
if nmm is 1 then
set zro to 0
end if
if mt is January then
set mth to "01"
else if mt is February then
set mth to "02"
else if mt is March then
set mth to "03"
else if mt is April then
set mth to "04"
else if mt is May then
set mth to "05"
else if mt is June then
set mth to "06"
else if mt is July then
set mth to "07"
else if mt is August then
set mth to "08"
else if mt is September then
set mth to "09"
else if mt is October then
set mth to "10"
else if mt is November then
set mth to "11"
else if mt is December then
set mth to "12"
end if
set dtt to mth & "-" & zro & dy & "-" & yr as string
tell application "Finder"
make new folder at alias "iBook HD:Users:roger:Desktop:" with properties {name:dtt}
end tell
This gives the folder name as, for example, 11-22-2008. (The days will have leading zeros, if you don't want these just remove the references to 'zro'.)

Hi
thanks for your solution,
i created a new Data carrier type AC for viewing auto cad files and given the path as, C:\Program Files\AutoCAD 2006\acad.exe"
and at Define serveres and files or folders,
defined the data carrier as Autocad type was default as AC,
at Identify frontend computers i could not enter any thing it is only in display form and no values were there and niether could be entered.
and my datacarrier created is not there to be selected while creating documents.
through CV01N create documents.
i suppose this is because i have already defaulted PC as the data carrier type. default system as my data carrier.
please clarify my Below douts also
as in my configuration i have defined only one Datacarrier ie Default PC, will this do all the need full, or will lead to to any complication in any aspect,
i want to know what is the Advantages of defining many datacarriers or the Limitation of a single Datacarrier.
iam facing a situation where a particular software say PDF reader or AutoCAD, is not installed in all the System. and iam thinking of installing this Software in a particular System or say in the Content Server system.
can this software be made used to view these cad and Pdf files on the front end system where this software is not installed,
Say in a particular PC the software AutoCAD is not installed and if he wants to View the AutoCAD file,
another problem iam facing is
while Creating a New AutoCAD file in my system through DMS Create, it gives a message "Drawing file is not Valid"
while i can create a Word Doc File, but it is not possible to create a new AutoCAD file throuh DMS, (AutoCAD is Installed in my system)
also i have no idea of how to create a New Data carrier type,
what exactly have to be filled in
1, define data carrier type
2, define server and files or folder
3, identify frontend computers
please provide configuration details or if possible screen shot details
points will be awarded for sure.
Thanks and Regards

How to create a report with data using the Crystal Reports for Java SDK

Hi,
How do I create a report with data that can be displayed via the Crystal Report for Java SDK and the Viewers API?
I am writing my own report designer, and would like to use the Crystal Runtime Engine to display my report in DHTML, PDF, and Excel formats. I can create my own report through the following code snippet:
ReportClientDocument boReportClientDocument = new ReportClientDocument();
boReportClientDocument.newDocument();
However, I cannot find a way to add data elements to the report without specifying an RPT file. Is this possible? I seems like it is since the Eclipse Plug In allows you to specify your database parameters when creating an RPT file.
is there a way to do this through these packages?
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.data
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.definition
Am I forced to create a RPT file for the different table and column structures I have?
Thank you in advance for any insights.

            oFieldObject.setFieldValueType(field.getType());
            // Now add it to the section
            oFieldObject.setLeft(3120);
            oFieldObject.setTop(120);
            oFieldObject.setWidth(1911);

            rcd.getReportDefController().getReportObjectController().add(oFieldObject, rcd.getReportDefController().getReportDefinition().getDetailArea().getSections().getSection(0), -1);
Then I get an error (which is not unexpected)
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportDefControllerException: The field was not found.---- Error code:-2147213283 Error code name:invalidFieldObject
How do I add one of the table.SetDataFields() to my report to be displayed?
Are there any other pointers or suggestions you may have?
Thank you
