How to Rename the "All Column Values" in Propmt for 11 G.
Hello,
i have one Requirement where i have to change the "All Column values" label to custom label.
I know how to do in 10 g but as here in 11g the oracle directory structure is changed.
if anyone have idea how to do this?
Thanking you..
Hi Veer,
I think "kmsgPromptRunTimeDropdownAllChoices" is the identifier which will pick up this value from a messages file. Request you to search for this string in Oracle_BI1\bifoundation\web folder's files if you can get one.
Hope this helps.
Thank you,

How to populate the organization_code column in ST table for legacy system
Hi, dear all,
Now I use the stage table to load the setup&transaction collection data from a non-EBS legacy system to ASCP system.
My question is: how to populate the organization_code column in the stage table？If the source system is EBS system, maybe it's an inventory organization code. But for the non-EBS system, which value is need fo this field? keep it as blank? or assign some value for it?
Thanks
Edited by: 852938 on 2011-5-4 下午10:24I find some words in the implementation guide, it says:"To collect data from your non-Oracle ERP systems or your trading partners' systems,you model each non-Oracle ERP system or trading partner as an Oracle Applications organization and store their setup and transaction data there".
But I can't find where to model the application organization for the legacy system.
anyone can give some clues? Thanks in advance. -
How to identify the source column and source table for a measure
Does anyone have a query that I can use to positively identify the source column and source table for a cube measure in an SSAS cube? Visual Studio shows ID, Name, and Source, but it is nearly worthless in a large cube and database.
Also - the same for a dimension would be great.
If no query exists for this, can someone please explain how to find the source column/table for a measure and for a dimension?
Thanks.DMVs don’t expose the DataSourceView content. AMO is much better suited for object model operations like
this than the DMVs. PowerShell is also sometimes an option, but in this case C# code would be much easier because analyzing the contents of the DataSourceView is much easier using the .Net DataSet class.
Hope this helps.

as i want all of the records, then going to specific to the dep.....do i need to use the case here?
Thanks for all of your time and effort in advanceHello Frank Kulash/Łukasz Mastaler,
Thanks for your time and effort.
I am using the Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.6.0 - Production
I am looking forward to have some additional columns (column alias) along with the the returned by the mentioned query - which are named as -
1- HR Amount
2- %HRTotal
3- %HR Cumm Total
4- Finance Amount
5- %FinanceTotal
6- %Finance Cumm Total
7- Sales Amount
8- %SalesTotal
9- %Sales Cumm Total
10 -Marketing Amount
11- %MarketingTotal
12- %Marketing Cumm Total
based on the logic like -
HR Amount = sum of amount case dep ='HR'
%HR Total = % of amount case dep ='HR'
%HR Cumm Total (cumulative % based on the cumulative total of %HR Total) = Cumm % of amount case dep ='HR'
similarly rest of the column........
Now how do i use case with a logic so that it returns me the columns as i want them ...using the above mentioned query .......
Kindly help me .....thanks in advance for all of your time -

How to rename the column name in oracle 8i?
hi,
Does anyone know how to rename the column name in oracle 8i?My method was drop the relationship key first then delete the old column,finally add the new column.
Thanks for your replay.
jingThere is no facilty to rename a column name in Oracle 8i. This is possible from Oracle 9.2 version onwards.
For you task one example given below.
Example:-
Already existed table is ITEMS
columns in ITEMS are ITID, ITEMNAME.
But instead of ITID I want ITEMID.
Solution:-
step 1 :- create table items_dup
as select itid itemid, itemname from items;
step 2 :- drop table items;
step 3 :- rename items_dup to items;
Result:-
ITEMS table contains columns ITEMID, ITEMNAME -

How to get the dynamic columns in UWL portal
Hi All,
I am working on UWL Portal. I am new to UWL. I have down loaded uwl.standard XML file and costomized for getting the values for "select a Subview" dropdown and I am able to see the values in the dropdown. Now my requirement is to get the dynamic columns based on the selection from dropdown value.
can any body suggest on how to get the dynamic columns in UWL portal.Hi Manorama,
1) If you have already created a portal system as mentioned in following blog
/people/marcel.salein/blog/2007/03/14/how-to-create-a-portal-system-for-using-it-in-visual-composer
2) If not, then try to create the same. Do not forgot to give the Alias name .
3) After creating a system, log on to the VC, Create one iView.
4) Now Click on "Find Data" button from the list which you can view in right side to Visual composer screen.
5) After clicking on "Find Data" button, it will ask for System. If you have created your system correctly and Alias name is given properly, then your mentioned Alias name is appeared in that list.
6) Select your system Alias name and perform search.
7) It will display all the BAPIs and RFCs in your systems.
8) Select required BAPI and develop the VC application.
Please let me know if you any further problems.
Thanks,
Prashant

How to expand the hierarchy column automatically when delivery reports by a
Hi Experts,
In OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0,how to expand the hierarchy column automatically when delivery reports by agent?
For example:
In SampleLite RPD, when we drag "Time Hierarchy" and Sales column into the report , and sent it by agent ,it will only display "Total" sales, not show all level value,such as Year,Month,Day.So how to expand the hierarchy column automatically when delivery reports by agent?
If we expand all levels and save them, it will be ok, however, when we add new data, it will be collpased automatically and not show the lowest level data, requiring Users or Developer to modify this report for expanding the hierarchy. We think it is very trouble, is there any good suggestion or method for achieving our requirement?958054 wrote:
Hi Dpka,
Is it any difference? I look at the result is same.
Firstly, you said it is 'Add member of ',
Now, you said it is 'Keep member of'
Could you please tell me which options I must select ? Thanks very much.Here is some notes from the documentation to make a better sense of how those two options would work:
•Selection steps — When you create selection steps, you can add a group or a calculated item in a step. Subsequent Keep Only or Remove steps might reference members that were included in the group or calculated item.
◦A group list is affected by members that are kept or removed in subsequent steps, but the group outline value remains the same. For example, suppose the MyNewYork group contains Albany and Buffalo and its value is 100. Suppose Albany is removed in a later step. The value of the MyNewYork group remains at 100, but Albany is no longer listed with the group.
◦A calculated item is not affected by members that are kept or removed in subsequent steps, because removals can affect the components of the formula.
•Groups and calculated items — A step can include a group or calculated item. Groups and calculated items can be used only with Add steps; they cannot be used in Keep Only or Remove steps. -
Changing 'All Column Values' in dashboard prompt
In OBIEE 11g, how to modify the dashboard prompt All label value? I do not want to change value in XML file , because it will impact all dashboard prompt value.
Is it there better method to implement this problem?
For example:
In dashboard prompt-->edit -->options--->tick 'Include "All Column Values" choice in the list', so I can view '(All Column Values)' value in prompt. Customers want to changed this value,such as 'all values'. Is it possible? Thanks.Hi,

How Can I get multi column values from dynamic search help?
Hi Gurus;
I'm using dynamic search help in my program.
I want to get multi column values from search help. But I dont know solution for this issue.
I'm using F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST FM.
How Can I get multi column values from dynamic search help?
Thanks.Believe it or not, the same FM worked for me in a dynpro. I will try to explain here how it works in custom screen and then you can do your work for other screens or program types. I am not going to write my actual work but will explain in general.
I have 4 fields (FLD1, FLD2, FLD3, FLD4) and i made the search based on FLD2 and when user click on a line (could be any field), then this would bring the line on to the screens.
There are like 3 steps.
You have your value_tab for my fields FLD1, FLD2, FLD3 and FLD4. This is just the data that we pass into the FM. (data: IT_VALTAB type table of ZVAL_TABLE)
Next map the screen fields into an internal table (data: It_dynpfld type table of dselc ). I also have other internal tables defined (just to keep it straight, i will be putting here) data: It_return type standard table of ddshretval.
Next step is to call the function module. Make sure you have values in IT_VALTAB.
call function 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
exporting
retfield = 'FLD2'
value_org = 'S'
tables
value_tab = It_VALTAB
return_tab = It_return
dynpfld_mapping = It_dynpfld
exceptions
parameter_error = 1
no_values_found = 2
others = 3.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
message id sy-msgid type sy-msgty number sy-msgno
with sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
else.
perform get_selected_fields tables It_return.
endif.
The code within the perform GET_SELECTED_FIELDS - We need to map the result fields after user selects it. The code goes like this. This is step is to update the dynpro fields.
I need a internal table as well as a work area here. like,
data: lt_fields type table of dynpread,
la_fields type dynpread.
field-symbols: <fs_return> type ddshretval.
so fill out LT_FIELDS from the IT_RETURN table
loop at lt_return assigning <fs_return>.
la_fields-fieldname = <fs_return>-retfield.
la_fields-fieldvalue = <fs_return>-fieldval.
append la_fields to lt_fields.
clear: la_fields.
endloop.
Call the FM to update the dynpro
call function 'DYNP_VALUES_UPDATE'
exporting
dyname = sy-repid
dynumb = '1002' "This is my screen number. You could use 1000 for selection screen (hope so)
tables
dynpfields = lt_fields
exceptions
invalid_abapworkarea = 1
invalid_dynprofield = 2
invalid_dynproname = 3
invalid_dynpronummer = 4
invalid_request = 5
no_fielddescription = 6

How to get the last "reported" value in a cross tab
Dear all,
