SOP: How to update ratio values

Hi everyone,
I have defined an Information Structure with some characteristics and ratios, all of them associated to some ZTable fields.
Well, I would be very grateful whether someone could tell how to update ratio values in my Information Structure. I mean I would like to know which are the steps I have to follow in order to update tha value of my ratios everytime its associated ZField changes its value.
I have the idea of using this Information Structure in a "Level-by-Level" planning type using Product Groups.
Thanks in advance and best regards.
Ben.

Hi again,
Actually I have already created my planning type with some macro instructions and I have checked that they work properly in MC94. I have also created a planning hierarchy as you requested.
But my problem doesn't deal with this. The key figures that I have included in my structure represent values in SAP (i.e. Sold units, Security stocks...).
What I need to do is update the value of that key figures in my structure for all the combinations of my characteristics.
I hope my explanation is quite better this time.
Thanks.

How to pass the value from Sub report to main report

I have un report(mainreport) within a subreport(subreport).
With reporting services, how to pass the value from Sub report to main report?
thanks

Hi Alebet,
With reporting services to pass values from sub report in to main report is not supported directly.
But there are some workarounds through which you can get this .
There are two ways to get this.
1- Put your sub report query into some table. i mean to say through the subreport query get some temporary table.
2- Using this temporary tables data write some Scala function in the data base.
3- Now in your main report query return this scala function as a column.
4- Extract the column value where ever you want in your main report which is getting calculated from the subreport query. so you will be getting the values returned from the subreport in the main report.
This will definitely work fine as i have done some report in this way.
Another way of doing is that
1- prepare another data set with the same query as in sub report in the data tab.
2- then refer this 2nd dataset in your main report .
But better way will be the top one.
Anyway please let me know if you get the solution.
Thanks

How to Get checkbox value when List value changed in classic report

hi ,
i worked with apex 4.2 and i create normal classic report with one checkbox column and one column change it to select list(named loved) now i want when user change list
take value of checkbox item and show it in message .
SQL for report
SELECT
'<INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="f01" VALUE="'

ID,
DEPT_NO,
EMP_NAME} i change the column attributes of Dept_NO to Display as Select list of department name (named lov).
now i want when user change name of department the value of SEQ SHOW IN ALERT MESSAGE
i create JavaScript on the page
function test(pThis) {
var f01_value = $('select[name="f01"]').value;
alert('#SEQ : '+ f01_value);
</script>
I call this javascript function when list change but the value undefined..
My Question :
How can get this value Or any value of item in reports

You should not create checkboxes like this. Either use the APEX_ITEM.CHECKBOX2 API or change the Column Type to Simple Checkbox.
>

i create JavaScript on the page
function test(pThis) {
var f01_value = $('select[name="f01"]').value;
alert('#SEQ : '+ f01_value);
</script>
>
name="f01" returns an array, what you need is single element value.
Try
<script type="text/javascript>
function test(pThis) {
var f01_value = $v(pThis);
alert('#SEQ : '+ f01_value);
</script>
{code}
{quote}
I call this javascript function when list change but the value undefined..
My Question :

Depends in how you are invoking/triggering the change event. Are you using DA or have you written an "onchange" event on the element?

How to get Checkbox Value from Flex in PHP.

Hi,
I need to know how to get a checkbox value from flex in PHP-POST/GET because I don't know what is the value property of a checkbox in flex.
Please Help.

Hi,
It is very simple. Follow the steps below to achieve the solution,
1. Write a check-box change event to capture the value of the check box. Store this value in a variable(say bolChkSelected:Boolean).
2. In step 1 you got the value of the check box. Now your aim is to send the value to php. Declare a httpService in your flex application(i think you are aware of using it).Ok..im writing it
<mx:HTTPService id="sampleService" resultFormat='e4x' url='http://yourdomain/file.php' result='handleResult()' fault='handleFault()'>
</mx:HTTPService>
3. Now the actual solution... u need to send the shcStatus in to php..
Declare an object to hold the data
var objparameters:Object={};
objparameters['CheckBoxdata'] = bolChkSelected;
--in the above line... 'CheckBoxdata' is used as a parameter to php..you shud have the same variable name while accessing in php file also..
in php file..
checkboxstatus = $_POST[''CheckBoxdata''];
echo checkboxstatus
thats it..

How to pass a value from the report to a form ( BIT OF URGENT ).

Hi,
I had created a "Form on a Table with Report" on the report I had remove the edit link and set one of the column feilds that functionality. Now I want to know how to pass that value that is clicked ( having hyper link ) on to the form where it runs a SQL query and then displays the reuslts on the form.
Illustrating with an example.
I am having these following columns on the report ( these are the results for the join statement )
JOBNUM JOBNAME DEPTNUMBER SAL EMPNO LNAME FNAME
In the above JOBNUM is having Hyper link as I removed the edit image.
Now this is area I am having problem. When the user clicked on the JOBNUM then on form it should display 20 other columns( pulled from 5 other tables ) which are related to that particualr JOBNUM.
Anybody give me a solution in which area I have to include my SQL statement and how to pass that selected value to that SQL statement.
Cheers,
Krishna

Hi Ron,
I am doing exaclty what you have suggested me but no luck. I started changing the DEMO_CUSTOMERS application to my requirements.The report is working fine and on the report I have created a page attribute to the Hyper linked column and linked that to the page 2 and assign that attribute with #JOBNUM#.
I am able to pass that value on to form when I click on the JOBNUM. But the problem is I am not able to pass that value into the SQL query so that my query pulls 20+ columns on to the Form ( which is second page ).
Small clarification... On the form region it is said FORM NAME and type is HTML is that is the way the APEX was designed or does it need to say region type as FORM.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Cheers,
Krishna.

How to update the Dataset of a report running with universe?

I am facing some issue in cross-tab.
My requirement is , on click of any cell in cross-tab i want to convert it into editable cell.
Converting into editable cell is something which I achieved using below code:
function onCellClick(e) {
var text=this.innerHTML;
var text = $.trim(this.innerHTML);
         $('<input />').attr({ type: 'text', name: 'text' }).appendTo($(this)).val(text).select().blur(
        function () {
            var newText = $(this).val();
            $(this).parent().text(newText).find('input').remove();
            var rIndex=$(this).closest('tr').index();
            data.data[rIndex]=newText;
            that.firePropertiesChanged(["data"]);
            //that.firePropertiesChanged(["visSelection"]);
    that.fireEvent("onSelect");
I just modified the sample code.
My report is running with universe.
Now I want to update the Dataset with this updated value.
Can anyone provide any help on the same?
Thanks

Hi Michael,
You got it right.
Let me tell you the whole story:
I have a weird requirement of creating editable grid. And the values which I edit into grid get saved into database.
By using javascript I am able to edit grid cell item into HTML.
Now after this I have two hitches:
1. I am not able to get the updated cell values in Design Studio. I think this issues goes to SDK side. I try to create a external script variable and use this into Design Studio.But somehow it always throw blank.
2. I am not able to update dataset. I know updating the dataset permanently is not possible as its getting created from universe. But I just want to update the dataset so that any change in measure values also update total of that column.
I start this thing this week only. So might be I am asking few stupid question. Please bear with me.
Thanks
Amit

How to get the value from another report Customizes Form

Dear all,
I create a report such as
select * from mytable.table1
where field1 = :bind_variable
I create a menu to run this Customized Form and user have to select the bind_variable values. So I have another report created which also want this bind_variable as it WHERE Clause. But I don't want my user to key the same bind variable twice. They can just same the Customized Form and run for both report.
Could anybody know how to get the bind_variable on 1st report and used by the 2nd report.
Thank you very much.
Best Rgds,

Hi,
are you on BI7.0? There you can create variables type replacement path and get the value out from a different variable without any coding.

How to remember checkbox values for each image

The situation is this: i have a horizontal list which i
populate with images loaded from xml. After i click on any of the
images, popup windows is displayed with checkbox. The same popup is
displayed for all of the images after i click on them. I need to
remember checkbox values (on/off) for each one of the images in
horizontal list but i don't know how to do that? How can i know
which one of the images (they are different) inside horizontal list
i clicked on in the first place?
thank you

I am sorry but i don't quite follow you, i am not sure what
you are saying so i would really appreciate it if you could explain
it to me a little bit further. I have the following mxml code where
i define my HorizontalList:
<mx:HorizontalList height="326" width="935" id="imageList"
itemRenderer="mx.controls.Image" columnWidth="427" rowHeight="320"
itemClick="popUpWindow()" backgroundColor="#4A4A4A"
borderColor="#444242" themeColor="#000000" verticalCenter="166"
horizontalCenter="0">
</mx:HorizontalList>
and following "popUpWindow()" function which i call when
image in HorizontalList is clicked:
//previously i populate horizontal list with images from an
array "slidePathAC"
imageList.dataProvider = slidePathAC;
public function popUpWindow():void{
trace ("\npopUpWindow function")
var tw:TitleWindow = new TitleWindow();
tw.showCloseButton = true;
tw.setStyle("borderAlpha",0.9);
mx.managers.PopUpManager.addPopUp(tw, MainPanel, true);
tw.width = 500;

How to add HEX values in a Report.

I have a special requirement. I need to add hex values in a report. To be specific, the special HEX characters: 0D 0A 0C 0C, has to be added to TOP of PAGE event.
Drawing What I want will be something like that:
CR/LF FF/FFABCDEFHGIJKLMNOZVCXC
This is a Report that has to be send to the spool. Once in the spool will be converted to TXT file. I created a small code using print control function but still It is doesnt working.
I defined a print control ZPAGE as 0D 0A 0C 0C.
Any idea how to do this?.
** This report doesnt include the Top-of Page event.
** Example Report.
REPORT ZCAPRTHEX2 NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING.
Data: String1(120) type c value 'ABCDEFHGIJKLMNOZVCXC'.
WRITE : /.
PRINT-CONTROL FUNCTION 'ZPAGE'.
WRITE : string1.
This is what I see in SP01 as HEX View
ABCDEFHGIJKLMNO ZVCXC #ZPAGE

If you download spool to file like that, you are still getting the spool in SAP format, it's not going to have the hex chars. You need to print the file by clicking on printer button. SAP generates file in printer readable format and send it to printer. I'm refering to that file.
Ask your basis folks to write the spool output reqest file to a file instead of sending to the printer. Open that file in hex viewer.

How to pass the value from sub report to sub report

how i want get one value from sub report to sub report..
can i do this one...
how can get the value.
i know main report to sub report
i tried that way but
value is 0.00 is comming
Any reasons.

Hi Try this.
Create a formula like this in subreport1 (from the report where you want to pass your value)
Whileprintingrecrods;
Shared Numbervar x :={subreport1Value};
Then go to 2nd sub report and Create a formula like this
Whileprintingrecrods;
Shared Numbervar x ;
Note :Your sub report1 should execute before sub report2 .That means sub report1 should be in the above section of sub report2

How to retrieve checkboxes values?

I am using a few checkboxes
<form method="post" action="testgetPara.jsp">
<input name="termcond1" type="checkbox" value="1" id="termcond" checked>
<input name="termcond2" type="checkbox" value="2" id="termcond" >
<input name="termcond3" type="checkbox" value="3" id="termcond" >
<input type ="submit" name ="submit" value ="submit">
</form>
and hope to retrieve the "checked" values from these boxes
so i do this
<%int i = 0;
//chkno is used only to retrieve the number of checked checkboxes
String chkno[] = request.getParameterValues("chkdelbook");
               //using a while loop to retrieve the value + execute it to the database.
while (i < chkno.length)
String isbn = request.getParameter("termcond");//get the specific array item
out.println(isbn);
//increment the i counter
++i;
%>
but it doesn't seem to be working
it return me with
An error occurred between lines: 2 and 16 in the jsp file: /testgetPara.jsp
Generated servlet error:
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3\work\localhost\Testing\testgetPara$jsp.java:69: [] can only be applied to arrays. It can't be applied to java.lang.String.
     String isbn = request.getParameter("termcond")[i];//get the specific array item
     ^
1 error
this error
may i know how to solve it?

but it give me a java.lang.NullPointerException
i have same id for my checkboxes, different name and
values for them
but it just doesnt work.NPE might be because tehere is no parameters named 'hobbies'
having same ID is not same as having same NAME (see the difference ID vs NAME)
if you had
<form>
<br>java<input type="checkbox" name="hobbies" value="java">
<br>haskell<input type="checkbox" name="hobbies" value="haskell">
<br>prolog<input type="checkbox" name="hobbies" value="prolog">
<input type="submit">
</form>
and it would appear something like this:
java [X]
haskell[X]
prolog[_]
[submit]
then you could probably write some code for it like this:
String[] hobbies = request.getParameterValues("hobbies");
for (int j = 0; j < hobbies.length; j++) {
%>
Your hobby is: <%= hobbies[j] %><br>
<%
}and it's output would hopefully look somewhat like this:
Your hobby is: java
Your hobby is: haskell
of course i have not tryed that code nore looked methods up from API recently, so it might have some minor bugs.

How to make a value changed based upon values selected in dropdown menu

Hi,
I am making my first Dreamweaver website using Dreamweaver CS6 on a windows 8 PC.
I am trying to make a website where the user selects different criteria; in this example an ipod's model, condition and size from three seperate dropdown selections (similar to www.itrado.co.uk) and then based upon these selections a value for their ipod is shown. However i cannot work out how to display a value which remains on the same page and changes based upon the values which have been selected from the dropdown boxes. I was planning on creating a database and then creating a simple code which retrieves the value from the database which corresponds to the three selected values, however i am not sure how to go about doing this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks,
Henry

You need scripts for this. Try this jQuery tutorial
