How To Create Logical column For Lastyear To Till Date

Hi All,
I Have to calculate Lastyear to Till Date for Logical Column.
Ex:I have Time Dime and Fact column and Dimension columns.
jan 2011 to oct 2012.
Please Let me know.
Thanks,
Abhi

Looks like you are not reading my messages
Since you are doing on logical columns getting this error.
Try this using physical columns then count from aggregate tab
CASE WHEN "Oracle Data Warehouse"."Catalog"."dbo"."Fact_W_SRVREQ_F_Open_Date"."OPEN_DT_WID" > 20110101 THEN "Oracle Data Warehouse"."Catalog"."dbo"."Fact_W_SRVREQ_F_Open_Date"."SR_WID" END
The same you can go with your variable
Or else the same can do by duplicating the existing Fact - CRM - Service Request"."# of SRs" and just add above code.
or just use the below you dont use sum since already aggregation is happend for # of SRs
CASE WHEN "Core"."Dim - Date"."Year" = VALUEOf("Warehouse Refresh Date Last Year"."CURRENT_CALENDAR_YEAR_LAST_YEAR") AND "Core"."Dim - Date"."Date" < VALUEOF("Warehouse Refresh Date Last Year"."LAST_REFRESH_DATE_LAST_YEAR") THEN "Core"."Fact - CRM - Service Request"."# of SRs" END
Hope this works, mark as correct

How to create two columns in a header?

Can anyone tell me how to create two columns in a header please?
Thanks!!

Sandra,
I'm suspicious about your motives. It just doesn't seem logical to me to put so much content into a Header that two columns would be required.
You might consider the alternate header-like approach; use a Text Box set to two-column format and Format > Advanced > Move Object to Section Master.

Can anybody help me how do I design such report....
Thanks

Hi Developer life,
According to your description that you want to dynamically increase and decrease the numbers of the columns in the table, right?
As Jason A Long mentioned that we can use the matrix to do this and put the year field in the column group, amount fields(Numric values) in the details, add an filter to filter the data base on this column group, but if
the data in the DB not suitable to add to the matrix directly, you can use the unpivot function to turn the column name of year to a single row and then you can add it in the column group.
If there are too many columns in the column group, it will fit the page size automatically and display the extra columns in the next page.

If your still have any problem, please try to provide us more details information, such as the data structure in the DB and the table structure you are currently designing.
Any question, please feel free to let me know.

How to create dynamics columns in oracle query1.

hi,
how to create dynamics columns in oracle query.its very urgent.
regards
prasad..

Urgent is it?
Why? Have you forgotten to do your coursework and you'll get thrown off your course if you don't hand it in today?
What makes you believe that your request for help is more important than someone else who has requested help? It's very rude to assume you are more important than somebody else, and I'm sure they would like an answer to their issue as soon as they can get one too, but they've generally been polite and not demanded that it is urgent.
Also, you assume that people giving answers are all sitting here just waiting to answer your question for you. That's not so. We're all volunteers with our own jobs to do. How dare you presume to demand our attention with urgency.
If you want help and you want it answering quickly you simply just put your issue forward and provide as much valuable information as possible.
Looking at your post you haven't told us what database version you are using, you haven't provided any create table DDL's and insert statements to populate that with sample data, and you haven't even shown us that you've had a go at doing something yourself.
You will find if you post on here demanding your post is urgent then most people will just ignore it, some will tell you to get lost, and some will explain to you why you shouldn't post "urgent" requests. Occasionally you may find somebody who's got nothing better to do who will actually provide you with an answer, but you really are limiting your options by not asking properly.

As a basic example of dyanamic SQL:
DECLARE
cur PLS_INTEGER := DBMS_SQL.OPEN_CURSOR;
cols DBMS_SQL.DESC_TAB;
ncols PLS_INTEGER;
BEGIN
-- Parse the query.
DBMS_SQL.PARSE(cur, 'SELECT hiredate, sal FROM emp', DBMS_SQL.NATIVE);
-- Retrieve column information
DBMS_SQL.DESCRIBE_COLUMNS (cur, ncols, cols);
-- Display each of the column names
FOR colind IN 1 .. ncols
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (cols.col_name);
END LOOP;

How to create logical file name

Could some one tell me how to create logical file names in BW , and when to use the transaction SF01.

The following describes the procedure for creating a cross-client definition using the transaction FILE.
You create the client-specific definition in the same way using transaction SF01.
1.Call transaction FILE for cross-client file names.
2.Double click the dialog structure Logical File Name Definition, Cross-Client.
You access the screen Change View "Logical File Name Definition, Cross-Client": Overview

You must create the entire internal table dynamically, you can not add columns to a statically define internal table. Here is an example of creating a dynamic internal table.

Can any one tell me how to create logical database

i want to create logical database which contain tables BSEG,BSIS,BSAS,BKPF.
tell me how this table will come under hierarchary and
what should i do.please guide me step by step for this problem,i am new to logical datbase.

Hi,
Use transaction SE37 or SLDB for creation of LDB.
Three main things in creation of LDB are
1)Structure(Hierarchy in nodes)
2)Selections
3)Source code
In structure part we have to define hierarchy as IN NODES
BKPF - Accounting Document Header
BSEG - Accounting Document Segment
BSIS
BSAS
In selections part we have to define selection screens for the LDB
In source code part we have to write the data decelerations and data retrieval.

How to create a column where each subsequent entry is added to the former?

How does one create a column, inside Numbers, where each subsequent cell is added, in value, to the preceding cell above it? For example, a column could be labeled "credit card subtotals for the month." In the first cell, one might insert a dollar value, eg., $24.00. The next credit card charge might be $100.00 and that would be added to the $24.00 to create a running subtotal.
Thank you.

Hi Jay,
Both formulas are written as they would appear entered into C2.
The 'special formula' is also written as it would appear in C2. Where I have used 'formula for C2' substitute your choice of the two formulas listed above the 'special formula' in my earlier post.
If you choose to use the first version, the finished 'special formula' will look like this in C2:
=IF(LEN(B2)>0,SUM(C1,B2),"")
Jerry's remarks regarding using conditional formatting to suppress the display of zeroes is well taken, but in this case, will not work as there are no zero values to be hidden.
In this case, either of the initial formulas will repeat the last 'running balance' in every cell from the last row containing an entry in column B to the bottom row of the table.
The formula checks, by counting the number of characters displayed, whether an entry has been made in the column B cell on the same row as the formula (B2 in the example in this post. IF an entry has been made, the formula calculates the sum of that entry and the previous running balance. IF no entry has been made (ie. there are no chanracters displayed in B2, the calculation is skipped, and the empty string ( "" ) is placed in C2, giving the appearance of a blank cell.
Example: the formula in this post is used in column C. Column D uses the core of that formula (with the C1 reference replaced by D1) without the IF statement. Both formulas are filed down to the bottom cell in their columns. Note the difference in rows 7 and below:

How to create a column that automatically creates a serial number?

How can I create a column that creates a serial number for each entry?

you could do something like this:
I assumed that the serial number only needs to be present if you have entered some information in the other columns of the corresponding row.
A2=IF(COUNTA(2:2)>0, REPT("0", 6−LEN(ROW()−1))&ROW()−1, "")
this is shorthand for... select cell A2, then type (or copy and paste from here) the formula:
=IF(COUNTA(2:2)>0, REPT("0", 6−LEN(ROW()−1))&ROW()−1, "")
To fill down:
select cell A2, copy
select column A by clicking the columne header (the "A" at the very top)
unselect cell A1 by holding the command key while single clicking cell A1
paste
