How to use parameters of "AdminTask_MakeDim.dts" in BPC ?

Hi everybody,
we try to generate or modify dimensions from the back-end and need to validate them. We are quite in the beginning of this task. Therefore we tried to use the supplied package "AdminTask_MakeDim.dts". In the user dialog that comes up, the system asks for "Input Dimension name" and "Input Source Table name". Regardless of what I type into these fields, the jobs finish without errors, but seems to do nothing.
Can somebody tell me what these user input parameters are for and how the system uses them ? Do I need to fully qualify the Input Source Table name ? The DM help is not very clear on this.
Thanks in advance.
Wolfgang

Input Dimesnion please specify the dimesnion name
while for input source table
First update the custom table and use custom table to update mbr table. then use mbr table as input source table
Also u need to update the excel sheet

Hi
You can do it while passing these parameters in the CONTROL_PARAMETERS.
data: ls_CONTROL_PARAMETERS type SSFCTRLOP.
ls_CONTROL_PARAMETERS-DEVICE = 'LOCL'.
ls_CONTROL_PARAMETERS-NO_DIALOG = 'X'.
ls_CONTROL_PARAMETERS-PREVIEW = ' '.
Pass this ls_CONTROL_PARAMETERS to the importing parameter of the FM .
     CALL FUNCTION LF_FM_NAME
           EXPORTING
                      CONTROL_PARAMETERS   = LS_CONTROL_PARAM
In addition to this, you might also want to set the print immediately field on the same structure to 'X'.
Generally you leave the device field empty, the user master record default printer will be used

How to use parameters in oracle SQL script????

Right now I am writing a SQL script to create a schema and build the objects of this schema....
I use a .net winform program to run sqlplus to parse this sql script ...
The problem is that the schema name and the tablespace's location and the sys password must be input by the user, so my SQL script should use these runtime input parameters instead of const parameters....
So, how to use parameter in SQL script ...........
Are there some example scripts in oracle home directory for me to refer to????

Hi,
UNISTD wrote:
thanks .....
what's the difference between variable , define, accept in sqlplus ???VARIABLE declares (but does not assign a value to) a bind variable. Unlike substitution variables, bind variables are passed to the back end to be compiled, and they can only be values in certain data types. You can not use a bind vaiable in place of an identifier, so to do something like
CREATE USER &1 ...a bind variable won't work.
"DEFINE x = y" sets the substitution variable &x to have the value y. There is no user interaction (unless x or y happen to contain undefined substtiution variables).
"DEFINE x" shiows the value of the substitution variable &x, or, if it is undefined, raises a SQL*Plus error. I use this feature below.
ACCEPT sets a substitution variable with user interaction.
And if the user miss some parameters in “sqlplus /nolog ssss.sql par1 par2 par5 par6”, how to use default value of the miss parameters??Don't you need a @ befiore the script name, e.g.
sqlplus /nolog @ssss.sql par1 par2 par5 par6Sorry, I don't know of any good way to use default values.
The foloowing works, but, as you can see, it's ugly.
"DEFINE 1" display a message like
DEFINE 1            = "par1" (CHAR)if &1 is defined; otherwise,it will display a SQL*Plus error message like
SP2-035: symbol 1 is UNDEFINEDNotice that the former contains an '=' sign, but the latter does not.
The best way I know to use default values is to run the DEFINE command, save the output to a filee, read the file, and see if it's an error message or not.
So you can use a script like this:
--     This is DEFINE_DEFAULT.SQL
SPOOL     got_define_txt.sql
DEFINE     &dd_old
SPOOL     OFF
COLUMN     dd_new_col     NEW_VALUE     &dd_new
WITH     got_define_txt     AS
     SELECT q'[
          @got_define_txt
]'               AS define_txt
     FROM    dual
SELECT     CASE
         WHEN define_txt LIKE '%=%'
         THEN REGEXP_REPLACE ( define_txt
                           , '.+"
([^"]*)
                     , '\1'
         ELSE '&dd_default'
     END        AS dd_new_col
FROM     got_define_txt
{code}
and start your real script, ssss.sql, something like this:
{code}
DEFINE          dd_new     = sv1
DEFINE          dd_old     = 1
DEFINE          dd_default     = FOO
@DEFINE_DEFAULT
DEFINE          dd_new     = sv2
DEFINE          dd_old     = 2
DEFINE          dd_default     = "Testing spaces in value"
@DEFINE_DEFAULT
{code}
when this finishes running, the substitution variable &sv1 will either have the value you passed in &1 or, if you didn't pass anything, the default value you specified, that is FOO.
Likewise, &sw2 will have the value you passed, or, if you didn't pass anything, the 23-character string 'Testing spaces in value'.
Here's how it works:
Define_default.sql puts the output of the "DEFINE x" command into a column, define_txt, in a query. That query displays either the existing value of the substitution variable indicated by &dd_old or, if it is undefined, the default value you want to use, which is stored in the substitution variable &dd_default. The substitution variable named in &dd_new is always set to something, but that something may be its existing value.
Notice that the paramerters to define_default.sql must be passed as global varibales.
Why didn't I just use arguments, so that we could simply say:
{code}
@DEFINE_DEFAULT sv1 1 FOO
{code}
? Because that would set the substitution variables &1, &2 and &3, which are miost likely the very ones in which you're interested.
I repeat: there must be a better way, but I'm sorry, I don't know what it is.
I usually don't do the method above. Instead, I always pass the required number of parameters, but I pass dummy or plce-holder values.
For example, if I wanted to call ssss.sql, but use defulat vlaues for &1 and &3, then I would say something like:
{code}
@ssss ? par2 ?
{code}
and, inside ssss.sql, test to see if the values are the place holder '?', and, if so, replace them with some real default value. The use has to remember what the special place holder-value is, but does not need to know anything more, and only ssss.sql itself needs to change if the default values change.

How to use parameterized statements with labSQL?

Hi everybody,
I have a big problem with labSQL. Every statement or query I have to use in my program works correctly, but I have a performance problem when writing my data to the database. The problem is the handling of the SQL statements by the DB. The solution will be the use of parameterized statements with labSQL.
The manual for NI Labview Database Connectivity Toolkit provides such information, but there are large differences to labSQL, and I don't get the clue. Is anybody able and would be so kind to help me? If someone has an example for using parameterized SQL statements with labSQL or the ADO methods for such stuff, please be so kind to share it with me.
Thank you for reading all of this
Best regards,
Matthias

Thank you very much for your help. I already had set up the correct SQL statement and created the parameters but got errors when executing the command object. After some tries I found that neither the SQL statement nor the parameters were the source of the error, as I had expected first.
The problem was that I was sending the wrong data type to the execute method of the command object. It expected some variant input for the parameters. I send an array of strings, which caused an error. I casted that array to variant with the same result. But a single string to variant worked well (with only one parameter in the SQL statement). The easy solution was to cast all strings to variants, and then build an array out of them. The execute method worked with that. Now the transaction is 4 times faster than before
Thanks again!
Edit:
If someone is interested in some example VI, please let me know. I should have some time next week to build one.

How to use the RateEntity dimension in SAP BPC?

Hello everbody,
I am implementing a consolidation process using SAP BPC. I want to use the RateEntity dimension, to translate a same currency into different exchange rates depending on the company.
I want the company which ID is GFU (which is from Brazil) in LegalEntity dimension is converted using a special exchange rate. I have added a GFU member in RateEntity dimension, and I have entered the exchange rates for the member GFU and for the member Global in RateEntity dimension.
But the problem is that after I run the FX Restatement package, converted data for this company is not the proper one, because Global exchange rates have been used instead of GFU exchange rates. Does anybody know why? Do I have to do anything else?
Thank you very much for your time

How to use multiple selection parameters in the data model

Hi, after have looked all the previous threads about how to use multiple selection parameters , I still have a problem;
I'm using Oracle BI Publisher 10.1.3.3.2 and I'm tried to define more than one multiple selection parameters inside the data template;
Inside a simple SQL queries they work perfectly....but inside the data template I have errors.
My data template is the following (it's very simple...I am just testing how the parameters work):
<dataTemplate name="Test" defaultPackage="bip_departments_2_parameters">
<parameters>
<parameter name="p_dep_2_param" include_in_output="false" datatype="character"/>
<parameter name="p_loc_1_param" include_in_output="false" datatype="character"/>
</parameters>
<dataTrigger name="beforeReport" source="bip_departments_2_parameters.beforeReportTrigger"/>
<dataQuery>
<sqlStatement name="Q2">
<![CDATA[
select deptno, dname,loc
from dept
&p_where_clause
]]>
</sqlStatement>
</dataQuery>
<dataStructure>
<group name="G_DEPT" source="Q2">
<element name="deptno" value="deptno"/>
<element name="dname" value="dname"/>
<element name="loc" value="loc"/>
</group>
</dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>
The 2 parameters are based on these LOV:
1) select distinct dname from dept (p_dep_2_param)
2) select distinct loc from dept (p_loc_1_param)
and both of them have checked the "Multiple selection" and "Can select all" boxes
The package I created, in order to use the lexical refence is:
CREATE OR REPLACE package SCOTT.bip_departments_2_parameters
as
p_dep_2_param varchar2(14);
p_loc_1_param varchar2(20);
p_where_clause varchar2(100);
function beforereporttrigger
return boolean;
end bip_departments_2_parameters;
CREATE OR REPLACE package body SCOTT.bip_departments_2_parameters
as
function beforereporttrigger
return boolean
is
l_return boolean := true;
begin
if (p_dep_2_param is not null) --and (p_loc_1_param is not null)
then
p_where_clause := 'where (dname in (' || replace (p_dep_1_param, '''') || ') and loc in (' || replace (p_loc_1_param, '''') || '))';
else
p_where_clause := 'where 1=1';
end if;
return (l_return);
end beforereporttrigger;
end bip_departments_2_parameters;
As you see, I tried to have only one p_where_clause (with more than one parameter inside)....but it doesn't work...
Using only the first parameter (based on deptno (which is number), the p_where_clause is: p_where_clause := 'where (deptno in (' || replace (p_dep_2_param, '''') || '))';
it works perfectly....
Now I don't know if the problem is the datatype, but I noticed that with a single parameter (deptno is number), the lexical refence (inside the data template) works.....with a varchar parameter it doesn't work....
So my questions are these:
1) how can I define the p_where_clause (inside the package) with a single varchar parameter (for example, the department location name)
2) how can I define the p_where_clause using more than one parameter (for example, the department location name and the department name) not number.
Thanks in advance for any suggestion
Alex

Alex,
the missing thing in your example is the fact, that if only one value is selected, the parameter has exact this value like BOSTON. If you choose more than one value, the parameter includes the *'*, so that it looks like *'BOSTON','NEW YORK'*. So you need to check in the package, if there's a *,* in the parameter or not. If yes there's more than one value, if not it's only one value or it's null.
So change your package to (you need to expand your variables)
create or replace package bip_departments_2_parameters
as
p_dep_2_param varchar2(1000);
p_loc_1_param varchar2(1000);
p_where_clause varchar2(1000);
function beforereporttrigger
return boolean;
end bip_departments_2_parameters;
create or replace package body bip_departments_2_parameters
as
function beforereporttrigger
return boolean
is
l_return boolean := true;
begin
p_where_clause := ' ';
if p_dep_2_param is not null then
if instr(p_dep_2_param,',')>0 then
p_where_clause := 'WHERE DNAME in ('||p_dep_2_param||')';
else
p_where_clause := 'WHERE DNAME = '''||p_dep_2_param||'''';
end if;
if p_loc_1_param is not null then
if instr(p_loc_1_param,',')>0 then
p_where_clause := p_where_clause || ' AND LOC IN ('||p_loc_1_param||')';
else
p_where_clause := p_where_clause || ' AND LOC = '''||p_loc_1_param||'''';
end if;
end if;
else
if p_loc_1_param is not null then
if instr(p_loc_1_param,',')>0 then
p_where_clause := p_where_clause || 'WHERE LOC in ('||p_loc_1_param||')';
else
p_where_clause := p_where_clause || 'WHERE LOC = '''||p_loc_1_param||'''';
end if;
end if;
end if;
return (l_return);
end beforereporttrigger;
end bip_departments_2_parameters;
I've written a similar example at http://www.oracle.com/global/de/community/bip/tipps/Dynamische_Queries/index.html ... but it's in german.

How to use SET & GET Parameters in Module Pool

Hi Friends,
Can anyone please tell how to use SET / GET parameters and PARAMETER ID for a text box (Input / Output field ) in module pool? What is the purpose and where do we need to do coding for it?
Note : I will definitely give the marks for good responses.
Thanks in advance,
Pradeep

Hi Pradeep,
You can save values in the SAP memory using a parameter ID. These
are user and terminal-session specific, but available to all internal and
external sessions.
SET Parameter copies the corresponding field contents into the SAP
System memory in the PAI processing block.
GET Parameter copies the corresponding field contents from the SAP
memory at the end of the PBO processing block, after data has been
transferred from the program, if the screen field still has its initial value
You can link an input/output field to an area of the SAP memory in the
ABAP Dictionary.
When you use an input/output field that is defined in the ABAP
Dictionary, its parameter ID is displayed in the Dictionary attribute
Parameter ID in the Screen Painter.
Usage
SET PARAMETER ID: CAR FIELD space,
CON FIELD space,
DAY FIELD space.
Here is the link that explains the usage of GET/SET in detail

Hi,
Using the Parameters is the correct method to pass data into and out of a sub sequence. You assign your data to be passed into or out of a Sequence when you are in the Edit Sequence Call dialog and in the Sequence Parameter list.

Hello Everyone,
I wanted to know how can the parameters passed in a URL be used in our Flex application. I searched in the forum and tried these links:

That would come within flex.
In my case, there is a SAP CRM web application which has a push button. On click of this button, flex URL is called(ie., http://172.22.41.154/MH_Bluebook_Integration2.html). On click of that button I need to pass an Object ID, which is passed withing that flex URL, something like this:

I need to receive 'abcd' in the flex. Any way we could modify the HTML wrapper to send this value to swf?

How to use Count with Date Parameters

Hello,
I am having issues using the Count() function in conjunction with date parameters.
This is a Siebel report and in my report I have 2 date parameters(From Date, To Date). In a nutshell I am basically trying to count Opportunities that has a start date within the given date period. However I don't see a reasonable way to put my date parameters within the Count() function. The reason being is that I need to have a huge chunk of code to convert the dates into a common format that can be compared, and it won't even fit within the code block in my rtf template. I am not even sure how to put multiple conditional statements inside a Count() function since all the examples I have seen are very simple.
Anyone have a suggestion on how to use Count() with date parameters?
Thanks.

Any chance you can get the date formats in the correct format from siebel?
I don't know Siebel - so I can't help you with that. If you get the correct format it is just
<?count(row[(FromDate>=date) and (date<=ToDate))?>
Otherwise the approach would probably need to use string function to get year/monthd/day from the date
and store it into a varialbe and compare later the same way
<?variable@incontext:from; ....?>
<?variable@incontext:to; ...?>
<?count(row[($from>=date) and (date<=$to))?>
Potentially you can use the date functions such as xdofx:to_date to do the conversion
[http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12844_01/doc/bip.1013/e12187/T421739T481158.htm]
But I am not sure if they are available in your siebel implementation.
Hope that helps

What are variables or parameters in Apex and how to use them?

How to use % Symbol for parameters in conditions in Discoverer

Hi All,
Actually I should add four parameters in that
two param's should be given %(means to select all) as default value.
ie as we use LIKE '%' in Query.
the problem is when I enter a value for a parameter, it should result me for that particular value,
and if I need all, I should enter % symbol,
so for this Iam confused How to use this,
even I tried with some options, it is not getting satisfactory results.
will any one please help me in reaching this.
Thank's in Advance
Edited by: user10271105 on Sep 17, 2008 3:37 AM

Hi,
You can create a parameter and give % as the default value. If you set the condition to use LIKE then when the default value is used for the parameter then the query contains LIKE '%' and everything is selected.
If you are using a List of Values with your parameter then you must add the '%' to your list of values so that the user can select this value.
However, this method will not work if some of the values in your database contain percent characters, because the condition LIKE 'ABC%DEF' will return ABCXYZDEF as well as ABC%DEF.
Unfortunately the like escape syntax is not available in Discoverer so you have to invent an value that the user can enter for all, e.g. ALL and set this as the default for the parameter.
Then use a condition similar to:
item LIKE :param OR item = DECODE(:param,'*ALL*', item)
