How to pass multiple values to a single parameter in BW report URL

Hi Experts,
I am new to EP and learning .... i am stuck at one point where we need to pass multiple parameters to a BW report URL, this is the URL that we launch from BSP.... Suppose i have to pass different multiple values to a single parameter, how to do it....
i m getting many answers to pass parameters to iviews, reports, but not specific to my case.. can u plz help me....
Thanks in advance

What is the prolem you are facing if you split the single date param as two parameters say startdate and enddate?
If you pass as single string then you might have to split the same at reciever end.
Are you trying any thing specific?

Passing multiple values to a single input parameter

Hi folks,
I have a Microstrategy query successfully passing input parameter to a calculation view. For example I can pass a movement type to a material movements calculation view input parameter. However if I try to pick more than one movement type the query then fails;
Generated SQL that works looks like this;
select
sum(a11.TOTALQUANTITY) WJXBFS1
from
"_SYS_BIC"."MyPackage/CA_TEST_PASS_PARAMETER"
('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$MoveType$$', '101')
a11
When choosing more than one value in Microstrategy the SQL now fails and looks like this;
select
sum(a11.TOTALQUANTITY) WJXBFS1
from
"_SYS_BIC"."MyPackage/CA_TEST_PASS_PARAMETER"
('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$MoveType$$', '101'),
'PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$MoveType$$', '103'))
a11
If I cut and paste the SQL and run directly in HANA studio the error is;
Could not execute 'select sum(a11.TOTALQUANTITY) WJXBFS1 from "_SYS_BIC"."MyPackage/CA_TEST_PASS_PARAMETER" ...' in 66 ms 361 µs .
SAP DBTech JDBC: [2048]: column store error: search parameter error: [2018] A received argument has an invalid value;TABLE/VIEW parameter: ( 'PLACEHOLDER'='$$MoveType$$, 103') not supported
Is it possible to pass multiple values in a single parameter? I'm using SP67 for this test.
Thanks,
-Patrick

Ravi, also to answer one of your questions about how this will work in Microstrategy; I just heard back from my Microstrategy developer and he is trying MSTR Freeform SQL query with syntax like this;
select (sumPAR_TEST.TOTALQUANTITY TOTALQUANTITY
from "_SYS_BIC"."MyPackage/CA_TEST_PASS_PARAMETER"
('PLACEHOLDER' =('$$MoveType$$', '[Movement Type]')) PAR_TEST
In this example [Movement Type] is the microstrategy prompt. Unfortunately though it translates like this which is missing extra single quotes around each value;
select     sum(PAR_TEST.TOTALQUANTITY) TOTALQUANTITY
from     "_SYS_BIC"."development.pr1959/CA_TEST_PASS_PARAMETER"
('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$MoveType$$', ''101', '102''))   PAR_TEST
instead of what we need which is;
('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$MoveType$$', '''101'', ''102'''))   PAR_TEST
So at this point we are not sure if this will be possible or not.

Any way to pass Multiple Values for a single Label in the Parameter?

I have a Report that Contains 2 Parameters, @Customer & @Area. When trying to set up the Available Values for @Area, I'm having issues using multiple values for one Label, i.e. = "4006" Or "4610"
One of the Filters in the Report is an Operation number, which is the [OPERATION] field, which is setup as a filter on the Tablix referencing the @Area parameter.
PROBLEM: I cannot retrieve any data when trying to use the ‘Or’ Operator here. If I simply put “4006” or “4610” I retrieve data, but when trying to combine it returns no data.
Example, I need to allow a user to select ‘Chassis Incoming’, which would include data from Operations 4006 & 4610.
QUESTION:
Any way to pass Multiple Values for a single Label in the Parameter?
I realize the typical solution may be to use ‘Multi-Value’ selection, but in this case we want the User to select the Area and the multiple values for Filtering will be automatically determined for them. Otherwise, they are subject to not getting
it correct.
I have tried several different ways, such as =”4006” Or “4610”, =(“4006”, “4610”), = In(“4006”, “4610”), etc….
Note: We are using Report Builder 3.0

Based on my experience, there's no way to 'intercept' the query that gets passed back to SQL Server, so a Split wouldn't work.
Try creating either a function or stored procedure using the code below (compliments to
http://www.dotnetspider.com/resources/4680-Parse-comma-separated-string-SQL.aspx) to parse the string:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.Parse(@Array VARCHAR(1000), @Separator VARCHAR(10))
RETURNS @ResultTable TABLE (ParseValue VARCHAR(100))AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @SeparatorPosition INT
DECLARE @ArrayValue VARCHAR(1000)
SET @Array = @Array + @Separator
WHILE PATINDEX('%' + @Separator + '%' , @Array) <> 0
BEGIN
SELECT @SeparatorPosition = PATINDEX('%' + @Separator + '%', @Array)
SELECT @ArrayValue = LEFT(@Array, @SeparatorPosition - 1)
INSERT @ResultTable VALUES (CAST(@ArrayValue AS VARCHAR))
SELECT @Array = STUFF(@Array, 1, @SeparatorPosition, '')
END
RETURN
END
Once created you can do things like this:
SELECT * FROM Parse('John,Bill,David,Thomas', ',')
SELECT * FROM (SELECT 'John' AS TestName union select 'David' AS TestName) AS Main
WHERE TestName IN (SELECT ParseValue FROM dbo.Parse('John,Bill,David,Thomas', ','))
This is what your SQL query would probably look like:
SELECT OperationID, OperationName FROM dbo.Operations
WHERE AreaID IN (SELECT ParseValue FROM dbo.Parse(@Area, ','))
You may need to fiddle around with the Separator depending on whether SQL Server inserts a space between the comma and next value.

How can i pass multiple values by a single variable to EXECUTE IMMEDIATE

Hi All,
I want to pass multiple values for where condition for execute immediate. Something Like this:-
bold
Declare
v_cond varchar(1000);
Begin
v_cond := '''INR','USD'''; --(OPTION 1)
v_cond := 'INR,USD'; --(OPTION 2)
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'Delete from table where colm in (:v_cond)' using v_cond;
END;
bold
I am using this into a procedure
Now option 1 gives an error ie a syntax error (; expected or something like that)(I am sorry, i can't tell the exact error here as i am not in the office right now)
and option 2 makes the procedure execute but obviously doesn't delete the records, as it takes the whole as one.
Please Help

How to allow multiple values in a single blank cell in WebI report

Hi
I am working in BO XIR2. I have a scenario as follows.
In a single cell (blank cell from template) i need to display multiple contact persons. When I drag the contact person name into the blank cell, I am getting an error: MULTIVALUE). Please let me know how to use a function so that I can show two or three contact person names in a single blank cell.
I tried to use Replace and Char function as follows to bring Carriage Return functionality to the cell.
Replace([Contact Person]; ";" ; Char(13)) but this did not work.
Thanks in Advance.

BOUser11:
I know this thread has been answered. I recently came across a scenario where I happen to populate multiple values in a single blank cell(from templates). But the only catch being that if user enters multiple values for a prompt you can show them in a single cell eg: =UserResponse("Enter value(s) for Branch:"). would be the formula for the blank cell. Afetr the user selects three values say A, B,C, webi puts it in the format of A;B;C. in a single cell.
In your case try giving that as a prompt to the user or answer that multi prompt some how and when u use the above formula it should suffice your requirement.
Let me know if you have tried.
Thanks,

How to passing multiple values for a parameter of discoverer(url parameters

I am trying to pass multiple values for a parameter of disco report. I am trying to include my url for discoverer viewer report. the values has the following
'jeff,mark'
'sfophiee,angela'
Thanks and Regards
Venkat

Hello Venkat,
I know there are some problems with 10.1.2.0.2, maybe if you haven't done yet you can try with 10.1.2.2, assuming this version should be working for multiple parameter values :
OracleAS Discoverer 10.1.2.2 is installed with the following patch :
Patch 4960210 PLACEHOLDER BUG FOR AS/DS 10G R2 PATCH SET 2 10.1.2.2
So, once installed you can try adding your parameter as param_<parameter_name>='sfophiee,angela'
Hope this helps, otherwise feel free to log a Service Request to Support.

How to select multiple values from the parameters in BI Publisher report

How to select multiple values from the parameter drop down in BI Publisher, and how to handle this mulitple values from the report sql...

Hi kishore,
I have used all the steps as you mentioned in your previous reply....including checking Mulitple Selection Check Box..
Iam able to get the results when I am selecting one value..
and also I am able to handle multiple values the in the query by using IN :Parameter, but seems when we select more than one value from the parameter drop down i think the Bi Publisher is sending the values in concatenated form something ilke
ex: "'ACCOUNT','HR','SALES'" ,and when trying to display the parameters values in the output, its throwing the error as 'missing right paranthesis' ....on the whole do you have any solution which would handle
1.Single selection.
2.Multiple selection.
3.'ALL' Values.
4.Separating the concatenated string into individual strings and dispaly them on the output of the report..etc..in case of Mulitple selection.
Ex:
Concatenated String from BI Publisher:"'ACCOUNT','HR','SALES'"
Expected Output on the report:ACCOUNT,HR,SALES
reply to this would be much appreciated....
thanks,

Hi Frank,
You should close this parameters with single quotation. Try this -
Select '<a href="javascript:popUp2('''

|| 'P950_TYPE,P950_CODE:'

Hope this helps.

Passing single/multiple values to stored proc parameter from crystal report

I tried below solution posted on this forum to pass either a single value or multi-value to a sql server stored procedure parameter (varchar datatype) from crystal report XI R2.
In my crystal report , I am displaying all the available parameter values to the user and the user will select either a single value or multi value.
This worked when I select single value and when I say show sql query in my subreport I see the following:
{CALL "XYZ"."dbo"."storedprocedurename";1('Product 1')}
But this did not worked when I selected multiple values and when I say show sql query in my subreport I see the following:
{CALL "XYZ"."dbo"."storedprocedurename";1('Product 1,Product 2')}
I think it might work if it is as below:*
For multiple values:
{CALL "xyz"."dbo"."storedprocedurename";1('Product 1', 'Product 2')}
Please advise.
Solution Posted on this forum is as follows:
Hi,
As you must be aware of that a crystal report created of a stored procedure will allow only a single value for inserting a multiple value as a parameter in your report and pass those values to your stored procedure please follow the below work around which will be helpful for you.
Symptom
In Crystal Reports, you want to pass a multi-value parameter to a stored procedure. The problem with doing so is that Crystal Reports considers the multi-value parameter to be an array.
How can you pass a multi-value parameter to a stored procedure?
Resolution
Here are the steps to pass a multi-value parameter to a stored procedure:
1. Create a Crystal report, and add a multi-value parameter.
2. Since the multi-value parameter is treated as an array, create a formula that uses the JOIN function. Create a formula as below:
//Formula: @JoinFormula
Join ({?Multi-value parameter array},";")
====================
NOTE:
In the formula above, a semi-colon (";") is the delimiter.
====================
3. Within the main report, create a subreport based on the stored procedure, and include the parameter to be populated with the multi-value list.
4. Link the Join formula in the main report to the stored procedure parameter in the subreport.
Doing so passes a multi-value parameter to the stored procedure.
Regards,
Vinay

Hi Vinay,
First you need to make sure the stored procedure accepts multiple values in the fashion 'a','b','c'.
Then, create this formula in the Main Report:
numbervar i;
stringvar s;
for i:= 1 to ubound({?Parameter}) do
s := s + "'" + {?Parameter} + "'" + ",";
left(s,len(s)-1);
Link this formula to the sub-report's parameter.
Hope this helps!

How to pass multiple values from master to child report

How would I pass multiple prompts from the master to child report? So for example, say I want to pass a 'Country' value along with a 'City' value
Would it be?
="<a href=\"../../opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=ASQlgCemIOlEid1HHUlzyPs&sDocName=DocTest&sIDType=CUID&sType=wid&sWindow=Same&lsSCountry="+[Country]+"&lsSCity="+[City]+"\</a>"
Thanks,
Carter

Carter,
what is the syntax for this?
It is exactly how you have posted in your original note.
"&lsSCountry="+[Country]+"&lsSCity="[City]
This will work providing the target report has a prompt called "Country" and another prompt called "City". Note that your prompt and what you pass between the &lsS and the equal (=) must match exactly, otherwise OpenDocument will not communicate the prompt title to InfoView properly and InfoView will stop and execute the prompt to get the info it needs before running the report. Have you tried what you've posted originally to see if it executes without a problem?
Thanks,
John
