How can I replace column value with a particular value in SQL

Hi All,
Can anyone please tell me how can I format my output with replacing a column value with a specific value which actually depends on the present value of the column
I am executing the following SQL statement
select state,count(id) from <table_name> where composite_dn= <composite_dn_name> group by state;
My Present output is:
State No.Of Instance
1 3
3 28
I want to replace the value in the column state as follows
State No.OfInstances
Completed 3
Faulted 28
I want "1" to be reppaced by "Completed" and "3" to be replaced by "Faulted"
Is is possible with SQL or PL/SQL , if it is then how can I achieve this required result. Please help!!
Thanks in Advance!!

Hi Roshni,
I guess this CASE clause can be simulated by a DECODE and also it is very easy to use.
Refer -- http://www.techonthenet.com/oracle/functions/decode.php
select decode(t1.state,t2.state_id,t2.state_name), t1.count_id
from <table_2> t2, (select state,count(id) count_id
from <table_name>
where composite_dn= <composite_dn_name>
group by state) t1
where t1.state = t2.state_id;HTH

I want to display one column values with multiple symbols

i am created one report.
my column name is offshore & on shore i want display 3 values with % symbol, then i want show 4 th value as $ 2000,
but it was allowing only one format $ or % but i need to display symbols with my values.

Try the following :
give a name to the following formula like @getvalue
Numbervar x;
if
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("ANI"), CurrentSummaryIndex) = 0 and
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Offshore Other"), CurrentSummaryIndex) = 0 and
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Syntel"), CurrentSummaryIndex)= 0 and
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Employee"), CurrentSummaryIndex) = 0 and
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Contractor"), CurrentSummaryIndex) = 0 and
//(GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Mgt consult"), CurrentSummaryIndex) = 0 and
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Clerical"), CurrentSummaryIndex) = 0 and
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Other"), CurrentSummaryIndex) = 0
then
x:=0
else
x:=(GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("ANI"), CurrentSummaryIndex) +
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Offshore Other"), CurrentSummaryIndex) +
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Syntel"), CurrentSummaryIndex))
(GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("ANI"), CurrentSummaryIndex) +
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Offshore Other"), CurrentSummaryIndex) +
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Syntel"), CurrentSummaryIndex)+
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Employee"), CurrentSummaryIndex) +
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Contractor"), CurrentSummaryIndex) +
//GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Mgt consult"), CurrentSummaryIndex) +
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Clerical"), CurrentSummaryIndex) +
GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, GetColumnPathIndexOf("Other"), CurrentSummaryIndex)
) * 100
Now create a new formula and check the value of the above formula :
if {@getvalue} > 50 Then
"$"&{@getvalue}
else
{@getvalue}&"%"
Hope this will resove the issue.
Thanks,

Crystal Reports XI - How to pull same column value with different select...

I have a report with many (around 30) sub reports and it is giving serious performance issue. I am currently finding out a strategy to improve the performance. I see that most of the sub reports are taking same parameters from main report except for one parameter which is different for each sub report and hard coded in them and pulling up the same column value from a oracle database with a different select criterion. I am trying to find out a way using either of command/crystal formula/SQL expression which can do the same job for me and give me performance improvement. I tried to take the parameters from the main report in one sub report and mapped them to parameters being transferred to the command and then drag and drop the field for which I need to display the value but due to some reason it is not returning values when I am trying multiple commands...I need some help in selecting a strategy for this issue resolution and some guidance....Any help would be highly appreciated....

My version is 11.5.8.826. First of all I need to make it clear that I have 6 set of sub reports and each set has 5 sub reports. So if I can resolve the issue for one set, I resolve it for all. The sub reports are doing nothing but fetching a column value using a simple SQL SELECT query and appending to the right of a box in main report. The issue is that all these queries embedded into the sub reports are using same SQL except for one parameter in the "where" clause and they are fetching same column value from the database and fortunately all of them are returning same number of results. So at the end these results create a table when run. The only way I can stop using sub reports is by creating a table in the main report and use some object(formula/command/SQL expression or whatever) to fetch that column value using the same filter conditions. But please take a note that I need to use and append the same column value from a database table and use different filter conditions and append them to the right so that at the end they create a table...as long as I get the table in the output with a decent performance , anyone will be least bothered about what I used inside the report.....please ask me as many questions to get more lights on the issue....

Column values with invalid characters

How to find the column values with invalid chararcters
meaning value upper(col) not in ('ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890')
For ex.
1. CDAssyKit,DragonNaturallySpeaking�Preferred7.0,USEnglish
2. CDAssyKit,DragonNaturallySpeaking Preferred7.0,USEnglish
Query should retrieve only the first row, since it has extra � character in the column value.
Thanks for your help.

Convert all letters and numbers to an arbitrary letter and then remove that letter. If there are any characters left, they are invalid according to your rules.
select *
from t
where replace(translate(lower(column_name), 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789', 'a'), 'a') is not null;

How to refer a column value of a single row in conditional column display?

Hello,
does anybody have an idea, how i can refer a column value of a single row in conditional display of a column?
So my idea is, that a report has a column, which value is only displayed, when another column value of this row has a specific value.
I want to solve this problem with condition type: PL/SQL Function Body returning a boolean.
But I do not know how to refer the column value of each single row!
Thank you,
Tim

Here's a solution that, to me, seems easier to implement but, that's, of course, in the eye of the implementer.
Rather than using APEX to generate a link column for you, actually create the link as part of your SQL.
select '<a href="f?p=102:3:491847682940364::::P3_CONTACT_ID:' || CONTACT_ID || "><img src="/i/themes/theme_1/ed-item.gif" alt="Edit"></a>' CONTACT_LINK, ...
etc.
Test this out. You'll see that it works just like making a column a link using the column attributes.
Next, we'll change the SQL to use a DECODE statement to either display the link or nothing depending on what your criteria is. For example, let's assume you only want a link for active contacts.
select Decode( CONTACT_STATUS, 'A', '<a href="f?p=102:3:491847682940364::::P3_CONTACT_ID:' || CONTACT_ID || "><img src="/i/themes/theme_1/ed-item.gif" alt="Edit"></a>', NULL ) CONTACT_LINK, ...
etc.
This will not display the link in any rows in which the CONTACT_STATUS is not active, i.e. "A"

Hi Arun,
Try this.

2, Drag and drop that parameter into your report title.
3, Pass the value(sort value) dynamically from your application,

Other wise Try with Dataset, create a dataset and fill thev alue into that.. Then set the data source from CR designer. and darg and drop that data column into the report.

OBIEE:How to display row/columns where no data is present in pivot results?

I have a request from some team members to provide an OBIEE report of 7 teams and the number of open incidents for each team by week.
I was able to create the pivot listing the teams vertically and the age (by week#: 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 4 weeks & > 4weeks) horizontally.
The dilemma I have is that of the 7 teams that have incidents tickets only 4 of them have data, thus only those 4 teams that have ticket data show up in my pivot. I would like to be able to reflect ALL 7 teams even if representing a dash or null value across the pivot for those teams that don't have data.
Does anyone know if this is possible and if so, how would I do this? I've tried searching the internet and found out how to replace a null value with a dash in columns/rows when a cell is null. But not how to display an entire row (or column) where no data is present.
Edited by: coutya on May 22, 2012 11:01 AM
Edited by: coutya on May 22, 2012 11:02 AM

You are correct; if there are no data at all, those teams won't show in a pivot table. NULLs or dashes only work if a particular column is null. There are two ways to accomplish what you wish. The first example I thought when I wasn't aware of being able to do a LEFT OUTER JOIN in Answers using the Advanced tab. The first method works nicely, though and is simpler to execute.
Read my solution here:
Re: Section Values showing NULL in Pivot
To do the LEFT OUTER JOIN read this:

Both will get you what you want...

Infopath display lookup column value

Hi
I have a Infopath 2010 form with which displays an employee record. Some of the columns are lookup from a sharepoint list.
How can I display the value of the lookup column instead of Id in the form.
The form has the main connection and the secondary connection for the lookup sharepoint lists.
The sharepoint lookup column is set to "Title" in additional column settings. Add a column to show each of the additional fields are all unchecked.
I searched google, but couldnt find an answer.
I tried to do the way described in http://sharepointsolutions.com/sharepoint-help/blog/2011/11/get-infopath-to-display-lookup-column-value-not-id/
But get error , since it works for repeated table.
Any Ideas?
Thanks
Venky

Hi Venky,
How did you create your look up column? Which column type is the column which your look up column looks for?
By my test, it is default behavior that the InfoPath form display the value of the lookup column.
Thanks,
Eric

How to display first row value returened from a query as checked as default in a report

How to display first row value returned from a query as checked as default in a report

Parameter 1

Mudassar

Hi Mudassar,
The issue is caused by the order in which the parameters appear in the report data tab can be difference between our report execution and it failing. In other words, “Parameter2” is execution before parameter “A” due to this issue. We can adjust the parameter’s
order to solve the issue.
If “Parameter2” is parameter “A”, we cannot use that expression. Because fields cannot be used in report parameter expression, if we want to display the first value returned from a query as default value, we have to fill the “Specify values” text box with
the specific value in Default Values dialog box.
