How to find Maximum of a date field using BEx

We are trying to just display the maximum of a date field in a BEx report along with some fixed text .
If we need to create a formula using Maximum function , how to use the same?
For ex, we have a field "Flight Date" in the cube and cube has been updated with flight date till 10.09.2006.
we want to display in the BEx report something like "Flight details are available only till <maximum of the flight date field from the cube>"
Please help.

Srilakshmi,
Create a formula on the data and then sort the query on the date , that way the latest date would come on top. I am not sure if you can have something the way you have described..
an option could be :
Have a query on the cube with a condition of top date where the date could be a formula , this way you would get the latest date. se this as a value set to filter another query that displays only the date and nothing else , have some static text beside the query to indicate that this is the latest date.
Hope it helps..

How to find the value of date char used as exception aggregation reference

Hi BI Gurus,
On a BEx report I need to list three things by material:
1)   the open (not yet delivered) Purchase Order quantities
2)   the PO quantity to be delivered next and
3)   the date that belongs to the next delivery
The model supports these data i.e. for each material I can list all open quantities by Purchase Order / Item / Schedule line and the scheduled delivery dates are also available as a characteristic.
Determining 1) is easy as the drilldown is fixed (materials only) the open quantities get summarized for all PO-s belonging to the materials.
To determine 2) I used a Calculated KF simply including KF 1) =Open PO Qty in the definition and setting Exception Aggregation (first value) with a reference char of the delivery date. This gives back the Open PO Quantity to be delivered first.
My question is about how to determine the 3rd value (actually this is not a KPI but a characteristic value). In other words, for each materials I would need to determine the first among all of the possible delivery date char values of the open PO Items / schedule lines. This is the date the quantity shown in the 2nd KPI will be delivered on.
Does anybody have an idea how to approach this issue?
Thanks for you help in advance,
Attila

Hi Olivier,
Thanks for your suggestion. I got a bit closer with the replacement path formula variable and the CKF. I tried to apply the same logic of KPI 2) but for some reason it did not work. Actually, it delivers the right value but only when 0SCL_DELDAT (Scheduled delivery date) is in the drilldown But what I need is the first delivery date by Material only, and without this 0SCL_DELDAT drilldown.
Any other ideas?
Thanks and bye,
Attila

HOW TO FIND THE REQUIRED DELIVERY DATE IN VA02

hi
HOW TO FIND THE REQUIRED DELIVERY DATE IN VA02.
i want to display this field in my report. what is the fieldname and in which table it is ?

Hi Jyothsna,
There are 2 dates when you say Requested Delivery Date
1. Header level in VBAK-VDATU is the field
2. At item level it is in the schedule line. VBEP-EDATU.
The relationship between item (VBAP ) and schedule line ( VBEP )is 1 to many. But there will be mutiple schedule lines only if you are using the scheduling functionality. Also note to check for confirmed quantity (VBEP-BMENG) to be greater than 0 and use that schedule lines EDATU date as Requested delivery date.

Advait Gode.

How to find out the Hire date of an employee?

Hi All
What is effective date, Latest start date and other date fields which are are used when we create a new employee?
What is the difference between hire date and joining date?
How to find out the Hire date and joining date of an employee?
Regards
Rahman

The effective dates are related to date tracking. The effective start date shows when this version of the record became effective.
The Hire Date, or Latest Satrt Date shows the date on which the employee was last hired. If he was hired before from 01/01/01 to 31/12/01, then left but was hired again from 01/01/07, the Latest Hired Date would be 01/01/07 and the First Hired Date would be 01/01/01.
When using Oracle HR, datetracking allows you to either correct data (because it was wrong or incomplete), or update it (because a time effective change took place e.g. got married).
The[b] effective dates show when a record was updated. So, if an update was made on 07/02/07, and the update datetrack option was used, the current record would have its effective end date set to 06/02/07 (the day before the update) and a new version would be created with the updates and an effective start date of 07/02/07.
Hope this helps.

Using 'Where used list' you can able to find out RANGES tables.
For VEBLN range table is --> CRM_AC_ASSIGN_VBELN
If you using a program defined as shown below.
DATA: r_vbeln type ranges of vbeln.
The above statement also creates ranges structure in Runtime.
Procedure finding range table structures
go to SE37 -> Enter domain or dataelement value
Go to where used list --> search for 'Structures'
After getting all structure --> Click 'SEARCH' butoon in tool bar --> Search for 'RANGES' word
You can get all ranges tables in the search window

How to find maximum number of users we can assign for Hyperion Planning.

HI,
How to find maximum number of users we can assign for Hyperion Planning.i.e., how to find license limit in hyperion planning 11.1.2.1.
In Essbase propreties, the system is showing maximum planning users could be 65535.
what would be the number for concurrent scenario?
Thanks
Giri
Edited by: Giriprasad on Jun 18, 2012 2:18 AM

The number of users would be based on your license agreement with Oracle, the system is not aware of your license agreement so it is up to you to stick to it.

How to find out the last date & time on which a program has been run

Hi Experts,
Can anybody tell how to find out the last date on which a purticular program has been run.

Hi!
Try STAD transaction. Unfortunately it contains a huge amount of data, so it is available only for a few days backwards... Maybe some weeks, but you can't make yearly reports from its data... So it's not useful to see, which program is in use or not...
I planned once to download it weekly, but it was not so important...

How to find the Last modified date and time of a package

Hi,
We need a clarification on how to find the Last modified date and time of a package in Oracle. We used the example below to explain our scenario,
Lets consider the following example
Let A, B be two packages.
Package A calls the package B. So A is dependent on B.
When A is compiled the TIMESTAMP,LAST_DDL_TIME in USER_OBJECTS gets updated.
Now there a modification in package B so it is compiled. There is no modification in package A.
Now when the package A is executed the TIMESTAMP,LAST_DDL_TIME in USER_OBJECTS gets updated but we did not make any change in Package A. Now we need to find last modified date and time of the package A . So we can not rely on the TIMESTAMP,LAST_DDL_TIME in USER_OBJECTS . Can u please tell us any other solution to get last modified date and time of the package A .
Regards,
Vijayanand.C

Here is an example:
SQL> SELECT OBJECT_NAME,CREATED,LAST_DDL_TIME,TIMESTAMP,STATUS FROM USER_OBJECTS
2 WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ANY('A','B');
OBJECT_NAM CREATED LAST_DDL_TIME TIMESTAMP STATUS
A 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 2004-05-20:10:57:32 VALID
B 20-MAY-2004 10:58:22 20-MAY-2004 10:59:04 2004-05-20:10:59:04 VALID
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE A AS
2 BEGIN
3 NULL;
4 NULL;
5 END;
6 /
Procedure created.
SQL> SELECT OBJECT_NAME,CREATED,LAST_DDL_TIME,TIMESTAMP,STATUS FROM USER_OBJECTS
2 WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ANY('A','B');
OBJECT_NAM CREATED LAST_DDL_TIME TIMESTAMP STATUS
A 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 20-MAY-2004 11:01:28 2004-05-20:11:01:28 VALID
B 20-MAY-2004 10:58:22 20-MAY-2004 10:59:04 2004-05-20:10:59:04 INVALID
SQL> EXEC B
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> SELECT OBJECT_NAME,CREATED,LAST_DDL_TIME,TIMESTAMP,STATUS FROM USER_OBJECTS
2 WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ANY('A','B');
OBJECT_NAM CREATED LAST_DDL_TIME TIMESTAMP STATUS
A 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 20-MAY-2004 11:01:28 2004-05-20:11:01:28 VALID
B 20-MAY-2004 10:58:22 20-MAY-2004 11:01:53 2004-05-20:11:01:53 VALID
Note that the date under the column 'created' only changes when you really create or replace the procedure.
Hence you can use the column 'created' of 'user_objects'.

How to find the last modified date of a workflow.

How to find the last modified date of a workflow.
thanks.

Hi,
There is nothing as standard that does this - you could write some code to determine the latest begin_date from each of the workflow tables and assume that this was the last time that the definition changed.
What you need is something like this:
select max(wfa.begin_date)
from   wf_process_activities wpa
,      wf_activities          wfa
,      wf_item_types_tl       wit
where wpa.activity_item_type = wfa.item_type
and    wpa.activity_name      = wfa.name
and    wfa.version            = (select max(version) from wf_activities wfa1 where wpa.activity_item_type = wfa1.item_type and wpa.activity_name = wfa1.name )
and    wpa.process_item_type = 'your item type'
and    wpa.process_item_type = wit.namewhich I think gives what you want.
