How to get this column (SYSDATE-CREATEDON DATE)

I have a reporting requirement to get a column subtracting two date fields and result gets displayed in days.
    I have a notification number with CreatedON date field in my DSO. Now for notification age, I have to subtract SYSDATE(which is current day)-CREATEDON date(for Notification Number)
  AGE(in days) = SYSDATE - CREATEDON DATE
Can anyone give me some suggestion on how to fulfill this requirement?
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
The steps in Query designer 7 are :
1) Open your Query
2) Go to Columns area and create a structure and under this strcuture create a formula by context menu.
3) In the edit screen of Formula : Right click on <i>Formula varibles</i>(Available operands) and select new varible
4) Now select edit option from the context menu of the new varible :
in general tab page take processing by <i>Customer Exit</i> and change the desription to FV1.
in details tab page , take variable as  Mandatory and remove tick mark for <i>Ready for input</i>.
In currency/unit tab page . take Dimensions as Date.
5) Again ,In the edit screen of Formula : Right click on <i>Formula varibles</i>(Available operands) and select new varible
6) Now select edit option from the context menu of the new varible :
In general tab page take processing by <i>Replace ment path</i> and change the desription to FV2.And Take 0NOTIFICATION as <i>reference Characterstic</i>.
In the REplace ment path tab page , Attribute value for<i> Varibale represents</i> and tehn take CREATEDON as the <i>Attribute</i>.
In details tab page , take variable as  Mandatory and remove tick mark for <i>Ready for input</i>.
In currency/unit tab page . take Dimensions as Date.
7) Now in te formula created in teh step 2  , take FV1-Fv2 as <i>Detail View</i>
8) Write the code for FV1 in Cmod as below:
DATA: L_S_RANGE TYPE RSR_S_RANGESID.
DATA: L_S_RANGE2 TYPE RSR_S_RANGESID.
DATA: LOC_VAR_RANGE LIKE RRRANGEEXIT.
DATA: LOC_VAR_RANGE2 LIKE RRRANGEEXIT.
CASE I_VNAM.
WHEN 'ZFV1'.
    IF I_STEP = 2.
         L_S_RANGE-LOW = sy-datum.
        L_S_RANGE-SIGN = 'I'.
        L_S_RANGE-OPT  = 'EQ'.
        APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.
      ENDLOOP.
    ENDIF.
endcase.

    1) Whenever you pivot rows to columns, no matter what version of Oracle and no matter what method you use, you have to decide in advance how many columns you are going to have and what the names of the columns are. This is a requirement of the SQL standard.
    2) I use the WHERE clause to get just the data for this year
    3) With EXTRACT, I get just the month without the year.
    4) Using DECODE, I put every month's data into the correct column
    5) Once I do all that, I can just GROUP BY order_code while SUMming all the data for each month.

  • How to get summary columns in delimited text file

    How to get summary columns in delimited text file
    I am trying to generate a delimited text file output with delimited_hdr = no.The report is a Group above report with summary columns at the bottom.In the text file the headers are not getting repeated & thats ok.The problem is the summary data is getting repeated for each row of data.Is there a way where i will get all the data & summary data will get displayed only once.I have to import the delimited text file in excel spreadsheet.

    Sorry there were a typos :
    When I used desformat=DELIMITEDDATA with desttype=FILE, I get error "unknown printer driver DELIMITEDDATA". When you look for help, DELIMITED is not even listed as one of the values for DESTFORMAT. But if you scroll down and look for DELIMITER it says , this works only in conjuction with DESTFORMAT=DELIMITED !!!!!!??!! This is in 9i.
    Has this thing worked for anybody ? Can anyone please tell if they were able to suppress the sumary columns or the parent columns of a master-detail data for that matter ?

  • How to get the column index inside a dataTable

    Hello,
    before I get staked, there are multiple threads handling familiar topics to the one I'm questioning about but none gives an anwer. If there is one, I'm propably to less skilled to see it.
    So here is my Problem: I've build a web-interface to a time-recording system. The hours worked on a certain project are displayed in a dataTable component which is generated out of a mySQL Query. Each entry (column/row) contains a inputText component to display and edit the specific value.
    Editing one of these inputText elements now fires a valueChangeEvent which reads the new value and stores it in the database. For that cause I need to know the row- and column-index of the inputText component that fired the event.
    Using the getClientId method from the valueChangeEvent I get some Information which makes it possible to calculate the row/column index. A typical clientID looks like "form_table:mainTable:0:_id14". "form_table" is the ID of the form the dataTable is in. "mainTable" is the id of the dataTable component. "0" is the row the component is in. And finally "_id14" stands for the id randomly given to the inputText component by JSF.
    My Problem is now, that though I can calculate the column out of the[i] "_id14", this calculation is hardcoded. So everytime I add a component in before the dataTable, the calculation needs to be adjusted in the code.
    The Questions:
    - How to force a sensefull id indicating a column-index for the inputText components inside the columns of a dataTable?
    - Nicer since no workaround: How to get the column-index inside the dataTable on a natural way? (e.g. out of the valueChangeEvent the specific inputText component fires)
    After some investigation here on the board and on the net I know multiple ways to get the row index, (Things like component-binding and so on) but I can't find a answer on how to get the column-index.
    Thanks to all answers and/or links to things my eyes missed while searching for one.

    ...then index 0 becomes index 1 and my program doesn't work properlyThe program works properly, just not as you expect it to.
    As you've noticed the table gives you the flexibility to move columns around. So if you move column 0 to column 1, why would you expect to still use 0 as the index? The table manages the reordering of columns for you to make sure the data being displayed in each table column comes from the correct column in the data model.
    You can manage this yourself using one of the following methods (I forget which one):
    table.convertColumnIndexToModel(int viewColumnIndex)
    table.convertColumnIndexToView(int modelColumnIndex)
    Or, you can get data from the data model directly:
    table.getModel().getValueAt(row, 0);

  • How to get a time part from Date datatype

    Hi,
    I would like to know how to extract the timestamp alone from DATE datatype? If my input is '27-SEP-2011 23:59:00' I need the output as 23:59:00. I am surprised to see that there are no in-built functions for this or may be I am wrong. Basically I need to remove the date part from DATE data type and get the time.Please assist.

    Hi,
    I would like to know how to extract the timestamp alone from DATE datatype? Be careful! In Oracle, TIMESTAMP means a datatype, similar to but distinct from DATE. You'll avoid confusion if you don't use the word "timestamp" to mean anything else.
    There is a built-in function, TO_CHAR:
    TO_CHAR (dt_col, 'HH24:MI:SS')Depending on how you plan to use the time, TRUNC is another handy built-in function:
    dt_col - TRUNC (dt_col)is a NUMBER (not less than 0, but less than 1) which is suitable for many tasks, such as finding the average time.
    I hope this answers your question.
    If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all tables, and also post the results you want from that data.
    Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
    Always say which version of Oracle you're using.

  • How to Get Millisec from Sysdate

    Hello all
    How to get millisec from sysdate.
    Pls let me know da query ..

    You can't get milliseconds from SYSDATE. In 9i and upwards you can get them from a timestamp, whether it be from the built-in functions SYSTIMESTAMP and LOCALTIMESTAMP or a timestamp column/variable of your own.
    Unfortunately, Oracle only supplies the means to extract seconds, but fortunately, this includes the millilseconds, which are easy enough to get to as the following demonstrates:-
    SQL> select extract(second from localtimestamp) from dual;
    EXTRACT(SECONDFROMLOCALTIMESTAMP)
                   42.765535
    SQL> select mod(extract(second from systimestamp),1) from dual;
    MOD(EXTRACT(SECONDFROMSYSTIMESTAMP),1)

  • I have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    i have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.it works on my iphone 5 & it originally worked on my ipad.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
    On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed.

    I have a school ipad with iCloud using a different ID (my school email address) . I am leaving and want to buy my own ipad and transfer all my data and docs to my personal iCloud account but don't know how to do this without deleting all data and photos?

    Heya Katie!!
    So, the article you have there, HT4895, is pretty good. Just look at the FAQ section of it.
    But basically, you will want to create a backup on your computer through iTunes...Just plug your current iPad into it and make sure your iPad and iTunes are logged in with the same Apple ID. At that point, just create a backup.
    When you get your new iPad, and before you plug it in or set it up, follow the directions in this link to change your Apple ID. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621?viewlocale=en_US
    Once you have that done, plug your new iPad into your computer to sync up with iTunes. Follow the directions for Restore from Backup and it should bring all that info back to your new iPad.
    And changing your Apple ID email info will allow you to have your own!!! This should solve all your issues and GL!!!

    I have created a Rank for Total sales by Region wise i.e RANK(SUM(Dollars By Region)) in a pivot table.
    My pivot table looks like this
    COLUMN SELECTOR: TOTAL US , REGION , DISTRICT , MARKET

    I have tried the pure �GregorianCalendar� class from jdk1.4 API and its setGregorianChange method but not getting as per the expected Julian date format. Using the �setGregorianChange()� i have setting the cutover date to Long.MAX_VALUE it means GregorianCalendar now have to act as per the Julian calendar ...so after setting the cutover date it return me changed date using �getGregorianChange()� but that was not the Julian date of the current date...as expected or as per above both scenario. Even though the last two digits are nowhere equal to the actual Julian date.
    Program
    GregorianCalendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
    cal.setGregorianChange(new Date(Long.MAX_VALUE)); // setting the calendar to act as a pure Julian calendar.
    // cal.set(Calendar.DATE, new Date().getDate()); // seting the current date
    // Date todayJD = cal.getGregorianChange(); // getting the changed date after the setGregorianChange
    Date todayJD = cal.getTime(); // getting the calculated time of today�s Julian date
    SimpleDateFormat sdfJulianDate = new SimpleDateFormat("yyDDD");
    SimpleDateFormat sdfJuliandayOfYear = new SimpleDateFormat("DDD");
    System.out.println("today Date = " + new Date());
    System.out.println("Today as julian date = " + sdfJulianDate.format(todayJD));
    System.out.println("Today as day of year = " + sdfJuliandayOfYear.format(todayJD));
    OUTPUT:
    USING : Date todayJD = cal.getGregorianChange();
    Today Date = Thu Nov 02 15:17:05 IST 2006
    Today as julian date = 94229
    Today as day of year = 229
    USING : cal.set(Calendar.DATE, new Date().getDate());
    Today Date = Thu Nov 02 15:19:22 IST 2006
    Today as julian date = 06319
    Today as day of year = 319
    USING : Date todayJD = cal.getTime();
    Today Date = Thu Nov 02 15:17:59 IST 2006
    Today as julian date = 06306
    Today as day of year = 306
    There is one another concept i found to get the Julian day of the year as per the Julian day chart mention on nasa site (http://angler.larc.nasa.gov/armsgp/JulianDayChart.html) and i m getting the moth of the year that is 306 for nov 02 2006 using getTime() method in above code then the out put is right for Julian day. But it was not as per the expected Julian date format. So in conclusion we can only able to retrieve the day of year for the Julian calendar. hope their will be a solution for this problem in java api ....else we allways have to depend upon the third party api that was not accepteble some times.....
    Kindly chk chart on the site

  • How to get a string "yyyyMMdd" into date like MM/dd/yyyy?.

    Hi
    How to get a string "yyyyMMdd" into date like MM/dd/yyyy?. i have used
    SimpleDateFormat.parse but it is giving long value. i want to disply the date
    like MM/dd/yyyy
    thank you

    Do you want the string rearranged or do you want to create an instance of some form of Date class?
    If you want to rearrange the string you could just do it yourself provided you know the date string is going to be of the format yyyyMMdd.
    something like this:
    String newDate = origStr.charAt(4) + origStr.charAt(5) + "/" + origStr.charAt(6) + origStr.charAt(7) + "/" ...etc.
