Hi gary,
plz help on this , i already posted in forum but iam confident on u ,
Ihave one scenario like calculate the ytd values using cross join like
IIF(is ([Flow].CurrentMember,[YTD]),
(case
when
is ([PERIOD].CurrentMember,[2008.01])
Then (Sum (crossjoin({[DI-3]},CrossJoin({[FLOW].[MtD]},{[PERIOD].[2008.01],[PERIOD].[2008.01] })))/2)
when
is ([PERIOD].CurrentMember,[2008.02])
Then (Sum (crossjoin({[DI-3]},crossjoin({[FLOW].[MtD]},{[PERIOD].[2008.01],[PERIOD].[2008.02]}))))
when
is ([PERIOD].CurrentMember,[2008.03])
Then (Sum (crossjoin({[DI-3]},CrossJoin({[FLOW].[MtD]},{[PERIOD].[2008.01],[PERIOD].[2008.02],[PERIOD].[2008.03]))))
etc,othercase)
but I am trying other oneto decrese the size of formula
IIF(is ([Flow].CurrentMember,[YTD]),
(Sum (crossjoin({[DI-3]},CrossJoin({[FLOW].[MtD]},
{filter([PERIOD].Generations(5).members,StrToNum(Right([PERIOD].CurrentMember.MEMBER_NAME,2)) <= StrToNum(Right([PERIOD].CurrentMember.MEMBER_NAME,2)) AND StrToNum(Left([PERIOD].CurrentMember.MEMBER_NAME,4))=StrToNum(left([PERIOD].CurrentMember.MEMBER_NAME,4)) ) }))))
, othercase )
but its result is same value for all the YTDs for every month, something is going wrong some where
plz any help would be appriociated

Unexpected syntax error executing MDX sentence with a "LIKE" predicate

Hello,
I am executing the next MDX sentence correctly on a SAPBW server
SELECT NON EMPTY
          FILTER (
               [0VENDOR].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS ,
               [0VENDOR].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("MEMBER_CAPTION") LIKE "V01*"
     DIMENSION PROPERTIES [0VENDOR].[20ADDR_NUMBR], [0VENDOR].[20CITY_2] ON ROWS,
     {[Measures].[0NUMDAY], [Measures].[0RSPL_FCPER]} ON COLUMNS
FROM [$MY_CUBE]
The MDX is working OK and returning all members that their caption start by "V01".
The problem appears when I execute the query in another SAP server. This new server is returning the next syntax error.
Syntax error: Syntax Error : ....CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("MEMBE, row 113, item: 113
I was searching about SAP and MDX, LIKE operator, the syntax error... but I did not find any interesting.
Why this query could fail in a certain SAP server but work OK in another?
I tried to change the FILTER condition with a "=" operator and it works OK, but I need the "LIKE" one.
Thanks in advanced.

Thanks for your response.
The MDX query works OK at SAP 7.0SP1, but it does not work at SAP 7.3.1SPS5.
Yes, all attributes are the same and exists, and query was tested also with MDXTEST transaction. At this transaction, the error was the same "Syntax error: Syntax Error : ....CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("MEMBE, row 11" ...
Note that is a parsing error and it happens parsing the left part of the "LIKE" predicate, so I do not think that attributes were important on this, no?

OBIEE timestampdiff function syntax error

Hi all,
I am getting an error while applying timestampdiff function .help me to sort it out.
TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY,"- Sanction and Disbursment"."Value Date" , VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.VAR_CAL_CURR_DATE))
error details
Formula syntax is invalid.
[nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. [nQSError: 22025] Function TimestampDiff is called with an incompatible type.Please have your System Administrator look at the log for more details on this error. (HY000)
SQL Issued: SELECT TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY,"- Sanction and Disbursment"."Value Date" , VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.VAR_CAL_CURR_DATE)) FROM "SIDBI Master"

Aswin,
Syntax looks to be fine but before applying it here can you check if both these 2 parameters returns date in same format:
"- Sanction and Disbursment"."Value Date" = 08/21/2011 (No Timestamp)
VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.VAR_CAL_CURR_DATE) = 08/21/2011 (No Timestamp)
Both shud have same format.
Also, try this for verification
TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY,"- Sanction and Disbursment"."Value Date" , CURRENT_DATE)
Hope this helps

"Syntax error in the MDX statement " in Process chain failure??Urgent pls

Hi Experts,
could any one suggest me the procedure to rectify the below problems in process chain?
1."Syntax error in the MDX statement "
2."Error when getting data (Error when getting data (AXI))"
Rgds,
BH

In which case it'll be that Access has a different date format to MySQL, and you're trying to push the string "'25-Apr-12 10:55 PM" into Access, which it's not understanding. To get around this, you need to treat your variable as a true date/time object, rather than a formatted string.
CFQueryParams should be used on absolutely every database platform, they'll stop your website being vulnerable to SQL Injection attacks for one, which at the moment you're wide open to. Replace your query with something like this:
<cfquery name="input_comments" datasource="#DSN#" username="#DSNUSER#" password="#DSNPASS#">
      INSERT INTO comments(
                         commenter,
                         comment,
                         datetime,
                         post_id
               VALUES(
                         <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="#form.commenter#" />,
                         <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="#form.comment#" />,
                         now(),
                         <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_numeric" value="#form.post_id#" /> )
</cfquery>
The QueryParams will handle the data types for you, and should pass values around more safely and with fewer issues. Assuming you just want to store the current date and time you don't even need to get ColdFusion involved, as databases have their own functions for this. I believe Access' version is simply NOW(), so I've put that in your query.
Give the above a go.

Error while using CURRENTMEMBER property in INSTR function

Hi,
I am looking for SQL 'LIKE' operator equivalent solution in MDX and I tried the below query.
SELECT FILTER([Company].Members, INSTR([Company].CURRENTMEMBER.NAME,"AA") >0) on columns from temp1.db
The above query is not compiling due to CURRENTMEMBER propery in INSTR function.
When I replaced [Company].CURRENTMEMBER.NAME with a constant "AABB", then the query is working fine.
SELECT FILTER([Company].Members, INSTR("AABB","AA") >=0) on columns from temp1.db
Also, CURRENTMEMBER is working fine outside INSTR function.
SELECT FILTER([Company].Members, [Company].CURRENTMEMBER.[GEN_NUMBER] = 1) DIMENSION PROPERTIES GEN_NUMBER on columns from temp1.db
Is CURRENTMEMBER property not supported in INSTR? I am using Hyperion Provider Services 9.3.1.
Is there any other solution for SQL 'LIKE' operator equivalent in MDX?
Thanks in advance,
Anil.

With Essbase 9.3.1 it ought to work. The following is a simple query that works for me:
select
filter (
     [Market].Members,
     Instr (1,
          [Market].CurrentMember.MEMBER_NAME,
          "e"
     ) > 0
) on axis(0)
from [Sample.Basic]

Syntax Error with Table Parameter (type: ANY) when Creating Function Module

Hello experts,
I want to create a function module with a table parameter and table type is ANY. But when I check (Ctrl+F7) this function module, syntax error occurs - "In this statement, the internal table "MSG_TABLE_ITEM" must have the type "STANDARD TABLE"."
Could anyone tell me what the wrong is? And how can I fix it?
Thanks,
Shelwin

Hi,
For table parameters, you can only pass
MSG_TABLE_ITM TYPE STANDARD TABLE
or
MSG_TABLE_ITM ( don't fill other columns TYPING ASSOCIATED TYPE ).
For reference check FM 'GUI_UPLOAD' - Table parameters

MDX query : Syntax error at token 'NONEMPTYMEMBER'

Syntax error when executing this very simplified MDX query :
WITH
MEMBER [ANNEE].[YEAR1] AS
NONEMPTYMEMBER FY10
[FY10]
MEMBER [ANNEE].[YEAR2] AS
NONEMPTYMEMBER [FY10]
[FY10]
SELECT
{[YEAR1],[YEAR2]} ON COLUMNS
FROM [MICOPIGE.COM_MBU]
Syntax error in input MDX query on line 9 at token 'NONEMPTYMEMBER'
Note that line 9 "NONEMPTYMEMBER FY10" is a copy of line 4
No error if I delete line 4
Any help to understand and fix this error would be greatly appreciated.

Precision : My goal is to reduce the 30mn duration of a complex MDX query with many calculated members, using the NONEMPTYMEMBER token.

Hi Friend,
Please check whether or not there is view missing error recorded in dev_w0 trace file.
if there is , you can try to follow this procedure in order to manually
import the missing view definitions.
All steps must be carried out with the <sid>adm user of the target
system and from the install-directory:
1. In the install-directory
<sapinst_instdir>\...COPY\IMPORTT\SYSTEM\ABAP\ORA\UC\DB
create a file SAPVIEW.cmd with the following content:
tsk: "<sapinst_instdir>\...\COPY\IMPORT\SYSTEM\ABAP\ORA\UC\DB\SAPVIEW.TSK"
icf: "
<YOUR_EXPORT_DIRECTORY>\export\DATA\SAPVIEW.STR"
dcf: "<sapinst_instdir>\...\COPY\IMPORT\SYSTEM\ABAP\ORA\UC\DB\DDLORA.TPL"
dat: null
dir: null
ext: null
Please make sure that all paths are written correctly (in one line) and
the refered files are existant and readable. One exception:
The SAPVIEW.TSK file is created with step 2.:
2. Run from the command-line:
R3load -ctf I
<YOUR_EXPORT_DIRECTORY>\export\DATA\SAPVIEW.STR <sapinst_instdir>\...\COPY\IMPORT\SYSTEM\ABAP\ORA\UC\DB\DDLORA.TPL SAPVIEW.TSK ORA -l SAPVIEW.log
If there's a problem reading the 'SAPVIEW.STR' file, copy the
file to the install directory and adapt the path accordingly.
3. Run the view import by:
R3load.exe -i SAPVIEW.cmd -dbcodepage <YOUR_CODE_PAGE> -l SAPVIEW.log
-stop_on_error
4. Check both the SAPVIEW.log and the SAPVIEW.TSK file whether all views
have been created successfully.
If 4. is okay, restart the central instance and check whether you are
able to log on now. If yes, continue 'sapinst' by the option 'retry' or
'continue old installation'.
I Hope It can be helpful.
With Best Regards
Julia

Syntax error in function call through EF6

I'm trying to call a function from an EF6 query but it seems the compiled statement has a syntax error and the DBMS bails out with "ORA-00933: SQL-Befehl wurde nicht korrekt beendet" (SQL statement ends with an inappropriate clause). As far as I understand the Oracle .NET provider compiles E-SQL to SQL for Oracle in the first place, so how come the statement is malformed?
Here's what EF logs for this particular statement:
Opened connection at 26.01.2015 09:46:14 +01:00
SELECT
"Extent1"."Z_AS" AS "Z_AS"
FROM "DEMO_VIVPFLEGEDOKU"."FN_GETASSESMENTCHILDS_AUSMENGE"(:STRFILTER) "Extent1"

-- Failed in 79 ms with error: ORA-00933: SQL-Befehl wurde nicht korrekt beendet
Closed connection at 26.01.2015 09:46:14 +01:00
This is with VS 2013 Update 4, ODP.NET (ODTwithODAC121021 package) and Oracle 12c DBMS.
The function is defined as
create or replace function fn_GetAssesmentChilds_AusMenge(strFilter varchar2)
RETURN TTabOneNumber pipelined
is
IndexEing PLS_INTEGER;
IndexZ_Aus PLS_INTEGER;
Cursor CursorEing is select column_value from TABLE(fn_splitstring( strFilter ));

fetch CursorAssessCh into IndexZ_Aus;
end loop;
close CursorAssessCh;
fetch CursorEing into IndexEing;
end loop;
close CursorEing;
END fn_GetAssesmentChilds_AusMenge;

Strange syntax error message with some functions!

Hello!
I have a strange trouble with some functions in Numbers.
For example when I try an IF function directly copied and pasted from Numbers documentation I get an error from Numbers that “the formula contains a syntax error.
*The function looks like this:*
*=IF(E6>=0, “Nonnegative”,”Negative”)*
*The value in cell E6 is 25.*
Anyone have a clue about why?

Hello
If you enter my iDisk
<http://idisk.mac.com/koenigyvan-Public?view=web>
You will be able to download:
suriWork:for_Numbers:pour_modifierNumbers.zip
Which gives the ability to change the Numbers behavior (same thing for Pages and Keynote).
Applying it you will get an "Insert functions" tool matching your local settings.
It will insert functions using the semi-colon as parameters delimiter.

Use of xdofx:Instr function in a RTF template

I'm trying to use the xdofx:Instr function within a RTF template but am running into problems because the code produces an error. The following code worked before the data changed:
<?if:number(DS_SEQ)=1 and( M_TRANTYPE='F')?>
Now my M_TRANTYPE comes back as 'F,H' so I thought I would use the xdofx:Instr function. I redid the RTF code to read:
<?if:number(DS_SEQ)=1 and( xdofx:Instr(M_TRANTYPE,'F',1)>0 )?>
but this fails. I've tried other combinations but they also fail:
<?if:xdofx:Instr(M_TRANTYPE,'F',1)>0 ?>
<?if: xdofx:Instr('abc','a',2) >0?>
Can the xdofx:Instr be used in an "if" construct or am I missing something about its proper use?
Alex.

Alex,
Instr appears to be fine... check the xdofx syntax.
i.e.
<?xdofx: if Instr(M_TRANTYPE,'F',1)>0 then DISPLAY_XXX end if?>
regards,
Rownald
