Increment date parameters on each run

Hi,
while scheduling concurren requests. we have option like
"increment date parameters on each run"
what exactly the meaning of the above

Check the following thread:
schedule purge program
schedule purge program
Also, have a look at:

Date Parameters in Data Templates..

Mornin all..
How are you using date parameters in your Data templates..?
I'm trying to run a Conc Program that has a date parameter. in ORACLE Con Program the value set is setup to retrieve the format dd-MON-yyyy.
I also have this format specified in the Data Template..
<parameter name="p_paydate_from" dataType="character" />
<parameter name="p_paydate_to" dataType="character" /> ..and then again in the SELECT statement..
<![CDATA[
SELECT DISTINCT.......
TO_CHAR(ip.creation_date, 'dd-MON-yyyy') Paid_Date, sfc.faculty_code Faculty, etc..
FROM
WHERE
AND TRUNC(ip.creation_date) BETWEEN NVL(:p_paydate_from, '01-JAN-1999') AND NVL(:p_paydate_to, '31-DEC-2299')...
]]>..yet when I run the report it just ignores the data parameter and returns all records..
I know that if that this was done in ORACLE Reports I'd have to place this in AfterPFormTrigger..
IF :p_paydate_from is not null then
:lp_paydate_from := 'and ip.accounting_date >= to_date(:p_paydate_from, ''YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'')' ;
ELSE      :lp_paydate_from := '';
END IF;
    IF :p_paydate_to is not null then
          :lp_paydate_to := 'and ip.accounting_date <= to_date(:p_paydate_to, ''YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'')' ;
ELSE      :lp_paydate_to := '';
END IF; Question is - do I have to create a trigger and put it into my data template or am I working the date parameter wrongly..? How do you use date parameters in your Data templates..?
Many thanks for Looking..

Thanks for the comments.
I am able to return records when using the code in the SELECT statement via TOAD.
I've tried specifying dates in the parameter section but it was just the same error.
The error message given when I include these date parameters when in run the Conc Program is..
[051410_022803764][][STATEMENT] 8: p_paydate_from:2010/01/01 00:00:00
[051410_022803764][][STATEMENT] 9: p_paydate_to:2010/01/21 00:00:00
--SQLException
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01861: literal does not match format string
     at oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.throwSqlException(DBError.java:134)I know what the problem is, I just done know how to fix it. I'll try to explain. In ORACLE reports
In the Conc Program (running the report) The date can be entered in the format 'DD-MON-YYYY'
In the Report Oracle sends this date to the report in the format 'YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'. To accept this date in the report the easiest method is to.....
1. Create the date parameter as a varchar(20) instead of a date type
2. In the After Parameter Trigger convert the date either into a local variable or into a lexical variable (used in the SQL query) by using the code
         to_date(:p_date_parameter_name, '''YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'')
     srw.message(10, 'P Date from ' ||:p_date_from);
      if :p_paydate_from is not null then
          :Lp_paydate_from := 'and trunc(...............) >= to_date(:p_paydate_from,''YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'')';
       :disp_date_from := to_char(to_date(:p_paydate_from,'YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'),'DD-MON-YYYY');
          srw.message(10, 'LP Date from ' ||:lp_paydate_from);
      end if; etc etc etc..      end if;I know that if I can convert it somewhere somehow using that 'to_date(:p_paydate_from,...' thing then I reckon it should work..
I'm currently trying to figure out (a tad rusty at PLSQL now) how can I create an afterpform trigger to be called in the data template that does the above (basically just to convert the date format)..
PLease tell me there is an easier way!
Thanks!

Increment date paramters each run is not working

hi all,
i have a schedualed concurrent request that take a date prameter, i schedule the request to run daily with the option "increment date paramters each run" but it runs daily without incremeting the date what could be worng
fadi

You mean it was working earlier ? yes and still for all old request but not the new ones.
Do you by any chance use a sql to define the default parameter (like select sysdate from dual) ? yes i do i user select sysdate-1 from dual because i need it to run to the preivose date
Try to use paramter type = date, and default = Current Date, and check the increment date run. will try but i dont need the current data, i need current date -1
thanks dgood

Dynamic date parameters for a scheduled report that runs every day

I have a report that has input parameters for a start date and
end date. The report will be scheduled to run once a day at a
scheduled time. I need the report to automatically set the start
date and end dates when the report runs at the scheduled time.
When the report runs at the scheduled time, the end date needs
to be set to that time and the start date needs to be set to 24
hrs before the end date. I want the start and end dates to roll
forward automatically when the scheduled report runs each day. I
don't want any user intervention to change the start and end
dates every day. How can I do this in a report ?
Also, since the report is scheduled to run each day, I want the
output to be saved to a unique file name each time the report is
run as each day's report will report on the data only for that
day. How can I get the report to save to a unique file name
automatically each day ? Again, I don't want any user
intervention where they would set the output file name manually.

Try adding the following in the beforereport or beforepform
trigger, before the RETURN clause (TRUNC gets rid of the time
component of the date):
:p_date_from := TRUNC(sysdate) - 1;
:p_date_to := TRUNC(sysdate);
:desname := 'REPORT'||TO_CHAR(sysdate, 'DDMMYYYY')||'.txt'

Incremental Counter in SSRS each time report is run

Hi
I need to have a header row in my SSRS report which is an incremental number e.g. each time the report is run the number increments by 1. Something similar to a hit counter on a website.
Is it possible to have an internal variable within SSRS which will increment by 1 each time the report is run?
It seems straight forward, but from reading other articles online, it appears not to be.
Can anyone advise?

The most i think you could do is query the ExecutionLog3 view and count the number of times the report has executed successfully. The problem is this log is only kept for 60 days default. I am sure if you wanted to you could adjust the period
of time in which the log is kept (keep in mind it is system wide) or you could pull the data out that you need incrementally and store it. Here is some information on the view.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159110.aspx
I think the biggest challenge you will face on this one is political should you go down this path. Good Luck!

Waveform Graphs: Is there a way to save data to a file and then clear the graph after each run?

This is just an added feature that I would like to insert because I end up having to erase the previous graph(for viewing and simplification purposes) after almost every plot cycle. Does LabVIEW 7.0 have a built-in feature that allows the user to automatically clear the graph after each run.
Thank you,
Keith Blackwell

May I recall you that to clear a graph you have to create a property node,
choose value and connect an 1D array with its first value to zero.
Then using a Select vi enables you to choose from clear or graph value.

Multiple date parameters

Morning all,
I have created a report which is based on 2 sub and one main report. The main report uses, date range from one database field, the sub reports take date range from their respective date fields.
Now when I run the main report I have to put the same date range on all 6 date parameters.
I am wondering if there is a way to merge all 6 into 2 date parameters, though the date range fields should stay with their respective reports.
The reason is because, the date field in sub report is not the same as the date field in other two sub and main report.
For example
Main report - rework_date (from rework_groups table)
Sub report1 - date_entered (from order_header table)
Sub report2 - date_created (from order_progressed table).
Any ideas?
Regards
Jehanzeb

Ok I tried the following but that brought up 0 records from each sub report however the main report brought correct results.
1: I have a record selection formula in the main report like this
({foccredsum.date_created} in {?Start Date} to {?End Date})
2: I have similar record selection formulas for 2 sub reports like this
Subreport 1
({order_progressed.date_created} in {?Start Date} to {?End Date})
Subreport 2
({order_header.date_entered} in {?Start Date} to {?End Date})
3: I removed the date range parameters from both sub reports and linked my main report parameters to the two sub reports date fields and they show up like this under record selection formula
Main report stays the same.
Sub report 1 becomes
({order_progressed.date_created} = {?Pm-?Start Date}
and
{order_progressed.date_created} = {?Pm-?End Date})
Subreport 2 becomes
({order_header.date_entered} = {?Pm-?Start Date}
and
{order_header.date_entered} = {?Pm-?End Date})
Now when I run the report it only asks me once for the date range, upon putting the date range, it shows, 0 records for two sub reports and some records of main report.
Hence it looks like it does not passes date query across to the sub report.
Any ideas?

How do I prompt a date parameter for each piece of equipment?

Hi,
I've developed a report that displays all of the invoices, over a selected date range, for each piece of equipment. There are 25 pieces of equipment. At present, when the report is run there is just one date range parameter. I select the date range and get all invoices that are within the date range. However, if I want to ensure the invoice-related data from January 31, 2012 (for example) for Equipment #2 is returned I need to have January 31, 2012 in my date range. However, I wanted the cutoff date fro Equipment #1 to be January 28, 2012. Under the current design the result set for Equipment #1 will include invoice data up to January 31, 2012.
I would like to select a unique date range PER piece of equipment within the same report.
For example:
Equipment #1 - January 1, 2012 to January 28, 2012
Equipment #2 - January 1, 2012 to January 31, 2012
and so on.
Is this possible? Basically, how do I tell the report the data range I want for each piece of equipment?
thx!
Mark

Hi,
I am not sure of how you would be able to filter records using 2 different parameters.
You can get 2 different parameters for Date dynamically with 2 different data sets.
You need to create 2 formula in Business View Manager , data foundation as below:
if {Customer.Country}='Australia' then {Customer.Customer ID}
and
if {Customer.Country}='Brazil' then {Customer.Customer ID}
Here instead of Country you can use your Equipment Field and respective values.
Save the Data Foundation
In Business Element create 2 Business Elements for these above formula.
And Create 2 LOVs for these Business Element above and schedule them.
Now in crystal reports you can create 2 Dynamic Parameter and use the above created LOV respectively.
I am not sure how you would be able to filter and link the parameters to your report.
Hope this may work or give you a thought.
Cheers,
Kiran.

Generated file becomes empty when date parameters are used

Hi,
I have a concurrent program which when run should generate a file. The From and To date parameters make use of a value set (FND_STANDARD_DATE_REQUIRED) whose format type is the 'standard date' and maximum size is 11.
When I run the program in APPS, the format for the FROM and TO date parameters I use is 'DD-MON-YYYY'.
The package which is being called by this program has this in the select statement: and ct.trx_date BETWEEN p_begin_date AND p_end_date
ct.trx_date field type is DATE
Each time I comment out this part of the select statement then compile the package and run the program, I am able to generate the file with the expected records. But when I use this part of the select statement, the genereted file is empty.

Yes, I expect 12 records to be in the file.
Am just not sure if the problem has something to do with the data type being passed. In the package that is being called, the from and to date parameters in the procedure are 'VARCHAR2'. While in apps, the concurrent program's from and to date parameters were assigned a value set whose custom type is 'CURRENT DATE' with format 'DD-MON-YYYY'.

Date parameters using MDX query

Hello experts,
Not sure if this question falls under SSAS or SSRS but I'm writing it here for now and hopefully get the answer.
I'm using SSAS cube to develop a report using SSRS and this is the first time I'm doing it. I want to filter records based on date range and did some research online. My report contains two datasets:
1. dsMain dataset -> it contains all the field which I want to use in the report and added a parameter thru query designed with following settings:
Dimension : Dates
Hierachary : Date
Operator : Range (Inclusive)
Parameters : checked
it created two parameters called FromDatesDate and toDatesDate
2. I created another dataset called dsDate and wrote a custom query (found at following link) and changed FromDatesDate and ToDatesDate using this date dataset
https://jsimonbi.wordpress.com/2011/03/22/using-a-date-parameter-in-ssrs-with-mdx/
Query for dsDate
WITH
MEMBER DateValue
AS
[Dates].[Date].CurrentMember.UniqueName
MEMBER DateLabel
AS
[Dates].[Date].CurrentMember.Name
SELECT
[Measures].[DateValue],
[Measures].[DateLabel]
} ON 0,
[Dates].[Date].[Date]
} ON 1
FROM [myCube]
Here is the value returned by dsDate dataset (above query)
DateValue DateLabel
06/04/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29375]
06/04/1980
06/05/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29376]
06/05/1980
06/06/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29377]
06/06/1980
06/07/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29378]
06/07/1980
06/08/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29379]
06/08/1980
06/09/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29380]
06/09/1980
06/10/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29381]
06/10/1980
06/11/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29382]
06/11/1980
06/12/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29383]
06/12/1980
06/13/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29384]
06/13/1980
Here is what I changed in FromDatesDate and ToDatesDate parmeter:
Under Available Values tab:
Dataset : dsDate
Value Field : DateValue
Label Field : DateLabel
Here are my questions:
1. I want to use date/time parameter so that user doesn't have to scroll thru whole date dimension.
2. I changed the FromDatesDate and ToDatesDate to date/time parameter, removed the values from Available values tab and made the following changes on Parmaeters expression under dsMain dataset
=”[Dates].[Date].&[” + Format(CDate(Parameters!FromDatesDate.Value),”MM/dd/yyyy”)
+ “T00:00:00]”
=”[Dates].[Date].&[” + Format(CDate(Parameters!ToDatesDate.Value),”MM/dd/yyyy”)
+ “T00:00:00]”
Now when I run the report I get following error:
Query (1, 55) The restrictions imposed by the CONSTRAINED flag in the STRTOMEMBER function are violated.
I think the reason is by changing parameter to date/time, now I cannot get "DateValue" which is required for the query.
1. What is the best way to work with date parameters?
Hope it is all clear and look forward to hear from experts.
Thanks,
P

Hi Parry2k,
In Analysis Services, a member can be referenced by either its member name or by its member key. The member key is used by the dimension to specifically identify a given member. The ampersand (&) character is used in MDX to differentiate
a member key from a member name. In this scenario, the datetime is member name, not the member key. So you should not add "&".

Error when using Date Parameters...

Hi everybody,
I have a little issue.
Ever since I upgraded my CRXI R2 to SP4 I've had a little problem using date parameters.
The little calendar icon next to the parameter field no longer works.
When I click it I get the following error message:
An error has occurred in the script on this page.
Line:       79
Char:      1
Error:      Object Expected
Code:      0
URL:       file://C:\Documents and Settings\jlong\Local Settings\Temp\prompting1.html
I'm thinking this is probable a quick registry fix, but I have no idea where to start looking.
Hopefully one of you CR guru's knows the answer.
Thanks in advance,
Jason

Hi,
I think you need unique ID's, for this purpose you use sequences
in Oracle. Example:
create table xy (
id number,
name varchar2(100)
alter table xy
add constraint xy_pk primary key(id);
create sequence xy_seq start with 1 maxvalue 99999999999;
(there are many other options for create sequence)
create or replace trigger xy_ins_trg
before insert on xy
for each row
begin
select xy_seq.nextval
into :new.id
from dual;
end;
This produces a unique value for the column id at each insert.
Hope this will help.

Default date parameters to trunc(sysdate,'IW') in BI Pub Reports 11G

Hi All,
I have a requirement to default the date parameters in the BI Pub Report to the following when the reprot is scheduled to run.
Start Date - Trunc(sysdate,'IW') - 8
End date - Trunc(sysdate,'IW') - 2
Steps followed:
1. I have created 2 Date parameters in the data model as :P_START_DATE and :P_END_DATE.
2. Created one data set with the query select Trunc(sysdate,'IW') - 8 "P_START_DATE" , Trunc(sysdate,'IW') - 2 "P_END_DATE
I have used the same names for the dates so that they are referenced, but its not working as expected.
Is there any other step i need to follow so that when i run the report from the dashboard, these default values populate which should be editable also.
Can anyone please help.
Thanks &Regards
Geetha

Hi Neeraj
Not null parameters are not supported in the current release. All you could do it either default a value in there for the user - check the doc for details. Or drop a msg into the report if that value was null and not return any data. The second is not great I admit :0)

Using date parameters entered by user within Chart

I would like to allow the end user to populate a start date and end date which will be used to generate a Pie Chart. I have been following posting How to Create a Chart from a user's date range input ? and I'm having problems.
I have created two Page Items to allow the user to enter a date range. Both Page Items are set to Date Picker ('DD-MON-RR') The start date has a default value set to the first day of the year by using round(SYSDATE, 'YYYY') The end date defaults to SYSDATE.
The flash chart series is defined as the following:
select null link, trunc((months_between(sysdate, c.DATE_OF_BIRTH))/12) label, count(*) value1
from FAMILY_INTAKE f
, CLIENT c
where f.client_id = c.client_id
AND f.intake_date between nvl(:P19_START_DATE, f.intake_date) AND nvl(:P19_END_DATE, f.intake_date)
group by trunc((months_between(sysdate, c.DATE_OF_BIRTH))/12)
When I run the page, the pie chart works; however, it does not seem to use the values used in the date parameters. It seems to be using the null value of f.intake_date. No matter what I set the date parameters to, the results are always the same.
Any help would be appreciated... Thanks!

How does one operate the page? Select one or two date values and press Go, or something? Then the page branches back to itself? If so, are the date items showing the selected values or getting reset?

Passing date parameters to a custom folder

Is there any simple way to pass date parmeters to a custom folder?

I think I recognize a question very similar to this recently.
And it's the same situation, in that - what do you mean by passing a date?
I understand it to mean that you want a user - at run time - to enter a date or date range that will then return only that data from a custom folder.
1. You could have all data returned (ie: no date conditions applied to the SQL) and then filter using the Disco tool (ie: plus, viewer, desktop).
2. If you want to 'pass' those date parameters into the actual folder in the EUL, then there is a method that you can use using functions you write.
3. Or you could code the actual database SQL view with some kind of hard-coded date parameters (ie: SYSDATE - 30), etc.
