How to create condition in OBIEE Answer 10g

Hi,
I have two columns in one of my subject area table: Get_Comm_Period and Get_Period. Now I want to add a condition in one of the Answer request like below
Get_Comm_Period <= Get_Period
Can anyone please tell me how to do that because whenever I try to add filter it always ask me to put value, the other column name does not appear.
Please help.
Thanks
Titas

In a "Create/Edit filter" dialog press "Add" button then choose "Convert this filter to SQL" option. You will get the edit field with a string
"Table"."Get_Comm_Period" <= Then you change it to
"Table"."Get_Comm_Period" <= "Table"."Get_Period"and press ok.
So it's what you want.

How to create conditional update trigger in sql server

How to create conditional update trigger in sql server

You cant create a conditional update trigger. Once you create an update trigger it will get called for every update action. However you could write logic inside it to make it do your activity based on your condition using IF condition statement
Say for example if you've table with 6 columns and you want some logic to be implemented on update trigger only if col3 and col5 are participating in update operation you can write trigger like this
CREATE TRIGGER Trg_TableName_Upd
ON TableName
FOR UPDATE
AS
BEGIN
IF UPDATE(Col3) OR UPDATE (Col5)
BEGIN
....your actual logic here
END
END
UPDATE() function will check if column was involved in update operation and returns a boolean result
Please Mark This As Answer if it helps to solve the issue Visakh ---------------------------- http://visakhm.blogspot.com/ https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs

How to create new database on Oracle 10g

Hi All,
Can any one tell me how to create new database on oracle 10g.
Thanks in Advance for your help.

again some confusion here.....
u said u need a new database in your first post and now you saying u need a new schema..
one database has many schemas(users)..... ex: scott,sys,system are few of them...
now it depends you need seperate database for test,dev environment - this is in the case u have many schemas under each database and many tables(objects) under each schema.
OR
You just need a separate schema (in same db) for test,dev environment...where in you will have multiple tables in each schema...U need to know the dba credentials of the db to create a new schema.
ideally u need to have different database...You can create one with out sys/system(oracle users) password as these passwords are db dependent.
what you need is access to the any machine where server is installed(can be the same mc where you have your dev db or a diff machine) and that will be the machine where your db will be installed (can do it through database configuration assistance),ofcourse you will need windows authentication for this.
so you login to the same machine or access it from your machine using remote login.
I hope that is clear.Hope i am not listing things that you already know..Just did it coz of confusion between db and schema

How to create ODBC connection between Oracle 10g and MS SQL Server

Hi,
Can someone help us with the steps to create an ODBC connection between Oracle APPS using Oracle 10g database and MS SQL Server.
Requirement is to extract the transactional data from MS SQL Server on a daily basis and dump it into Oracle tables for an interface to be run. Currently it is being done through Dataloader tool which we feel is causing the data issue with Arabic characters. We want to create the ODBC directly between Oracle and MS SQL Server and check if the data is being pulled correctly.
The data is in sql server 2000 which has data in Arabic_CI_AS character set which is moved to Oracle 10.2.0.3 database with characterset AL32UTF8. The table data is moved to oracle using the dataloader 3.6 standard edition licensed version. We cannot change the character set of Sql Server 2000.
Please help
Thanks
Shanil

Hi,
If you're trying to PULL data from SQLServer into an Oracle database, you wouldnt use Oracle ODBC driver for that, so you may want to post in the Heterogeneous Services forum instead:
Heterogeneous Connectivity
If you're trying to PUSH data from SQLServer into an Oracle database, you could use ODBC but most folks use OLEDB for that, and the following note on MOS should help:
How to Create a Sql Server Linked Server With The Oracle Provider for OLE DB (Doc ID 191368.1)
As with any NLS related issue, the first thing to do is dump the codepoints of the data in the Oracle database to see if it is stored validly, rather than relying on what the data "looks like" from some tool or other. It's best to check a single row, with only a few characters in it if you can, and you can do that via
SELECT DUMP(<columname>,1016) FROM <tablename> WHERE ...
Hope it helps,

How to create Application Workspace with Jdeveloper 10g 1.3.2?

Following the instructions in "Developing and Using ADF Faces Skins", I am trying to create an Application Workspace.
The instruction says: "In JDeveloper, create a new Application workspace and name it - ADFFaces_skin_sample"
I can not find the way to create Application workspace with Jdeveloper 10g 1.3.2.
Because when I click FILE==>New I got "New Gallery--Application" in left, in right only got "Application, Empty project, File, Java Class, Java Interface". There is no "workspace" item.
I try to use Jdeveloper 10g 1.3.1, got same result.
I found other ADF Skin training samples. All of them asked to create Application Workspace. But the Jdeveloper version used by all those samples were earlier than 10g 10.1.3.2
Please let know how to create "Application Workspace"?

What used to be "Application Workspace" in 10.1.2 is "Application" in 10.1.3.2

How to create conditional drop-down lists

I would like to create a form that utilizes conditional drop-down selection boxes like at http://blogs.office.com/b/microsoft-excel/archive/2009/11/24/create-conditional-drop-down- lists.aspx
How can I create a form that contains fields like this?
Is there a sample I can download?

I have downloaded the AcroForm version (ListProgramming_Part1_AcroForm.pdf).
I'm not able to consistently recreate. I was first playing with the form by selecting values in the drop down. At one point I went to Document Javascripts and select "Example1". I chose to edit. Make no changes and select "OK" I get "SyntaxError: missing } in compound statement 39 at line 40"
The sec ion of code is:
function SetPartEntries()
   // Only run this code on when the selection is commited.
   if(event.willCommit)
// There are 3 rows in the order form so in order to use other fields in
// the same row we first have to acquire the name of the row
// we are operating on. This is part of the List field's name, so we
// just have to split it off
var cRowName = event.target.name.split(".").shift();
// Now get the new parts list from the Master List
// Since the selection is being committed, event.value contains the selection text
var lst = oAssemblyParts[event.value];
// If an entry is selected that we don't have a parts list for, then
// the parts list is just cleared.
if( (lst != null) && (lst.length > 0) )
   this.getField(cRowName + ".PartSelect").setItems(lst);
else
   this.getField(cRowName + ".PartSelect").clearItems();
// We have a new parts lists and the first entry is
// is a non-selection. so clear the price field.
this.getField(cRowName + ".Price").value = 0;
I am not able to recreate if I select "Edit all Javascripts" only when I use document javascripts.

How to create a sequence in Answers?

Hi everyone,
I want to know if it's possible to create a sequence in Answers and how.
I have a Pivot table that I want to assign row numbers, but when I use RCOUNT(1) in a Dummy column I end up with 1 in all rows.
This is the format of my pivot table.
-------------------------------------Measure---
---------------------------------Y-1-------Y----
Order(DUMMY)---Code---Desc-- 2009 ----- 2010
1 435 idn 1 2
1 53 dvf 3 1
1 123 asd 8 4
I've tried to do RCOUNT(1 by Y) but then I end up having the double of rows.
Can it be done???
Thanks in Advanced

Try doing this:
1) Create a dummy column and call it DUMMY with this in the fx:
CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN tablename.columname ELSE 'whatever' END
2) You can hide this column.
3) Then in your "sequence" column, click on the fx and type:
RCOUNT(1 by DUMMY)
where "DUMMY" is the column created in step 1.

Created .rpd file but how do I connect in OBIEE Answers?

I have created a .rpd file using an Essbase connection but am now stuck on how I connect an Answer query to it in the OBIEE dashboard tool itself. When I create a new analysis, I do not see my newly created .rpd in the list of available connections. Should the RPD be saved in a specific folder? Do I use some fucntion within OBIEE to connect to the newly created .rpd? Am I missing out a section where I connect to the .rpd file, like in FR when you connect to a new Datasource?
Thanks

Hi,
You need to make the repository online for queries. Follow this:
- Login to Weblogic Enterprise Manager http://SERVER:7001/em
- On left pane, go to folder Business Intelligence --> coreapplication
- Go to "Deployment" tab and then "Repository" tab.
- click on "Lock and Edit configuration"
- Select repository to load, enter repo password and then click Apply.
- Then click Active Changes and then Restart all obiee services.
Once this is done, you'll be able to see and work on your presentation schema in Asnwers.

How to create business charts in Forms 10g?

In the old days, before and in 8i, we can still create business charts using Graphics Builder with the following graph types. How can we build business charts in forms 10g?
Column: Shows discrete values using vertical columns
Bar: Shows discrete values using horizontal bars
Gantt: Shows task or project scheduling information using horizontal bars
High-Low: Shows multiple Y-axis values for each X-axis point
Line: Shows data values as points connected by lines to show trends
Mixed: Combines a column and line chart
Pie: Shows how individual data values contribute to an overall total
Scatter: Plots 2 sets of potentially related data to identify possible trends
Table: Shows text data in a table
Double-Y: Shows a column or line chart with multiple values for the same X-axis value

On the samples page on OTN there is a piece on how to use BI beans to achieve business charts. Search for "BI bean Graphs in Forms".

How to create conditional text? (based on selected option, different text displays)

Hello, and thank you in advance for any assistance.
I need to create a .pdf with conditional text. Ideally, the user would select (via checkboxes) certain options, and only the text relevant to those selections would be included in the .pdf. Is this possible in Acrobat? If so, how? If not, what tool accomplishes this?
Many thanks.

Sorry 'bout that ! I was responding from e-mail and as you can see it's not working quite right. This is what I had wrote;
Tools ? What do you mean tools ? Adobe Acrobat is your tool. :-)
If you don't know javascript then you should entertain learning some if
you wish to "extend" Acrobat. That's the nature of the beast.
You may find some precompiled javascripts; but if you want customization
then you'll either have to pay someone to do it or yeah, learn javascript.
Check out Acrobatusers.com they have an excellent Acrobat Javascript section.
Best Regards,
Steve

How to create conditions in BEx

Hi,
Please tell me if my query condition on a KF looks like this how can i achieve this?
Key Figure: 1.Forcast Accuracy
            2.Actual
            3.abserr
Formula for Forecast Accuracy: If Actual>0,then do 1-abserr/actual,
              else 0.
if i create calculated KF or restricted keyfigure how can i write if else conditions...
Thanks in Advance,
Vijaya

Hi,
Check this out.....
(Actual>0)*(1-(abserr/actual))+0
Instead, if you don't go for CKF, in the columns of the query if you have columns for Forcast Accuracy, Actual and abserr
you can do like the below
Column1 : Forcast Accuracy
Column2 : Actual
Column3 : abserr
Column4 : 1-nodiv(abserr/actual)(to be hidden)(new formula)
Column5 : (Actual>0)*(Column4)+0    (New formula)
Hope this helps you.....
