Invalid prompt Error in derived table

hello All,
I have the below query which works in SQL server...but the same query in derived table is giving invalid prompt error when instead of hardcoding the value...I gave @prompt for user input value.
SELECT
convert(varchar(6), dateadd(MM,-3, convert(datetime, substring(cast(EMR_REPORTING.dbo.vMH_MEASURE_PRACTICE.RPT_YEAR_MONTH as varchar), 5,2) + '/' + '30' + '/'+ substring(cast(EMR_REPORTING.dbo.vMH_MEASURE_PRACTICE.RPT_YEAR_MONTH as varchar), 1,4))), 112) as prequarter,
Primed_Status,
EHR
FROM
EMR_REPORTING.dbo.vMH_MEASURE_PRACTICE
where RPT_YEAR_MONTH = '201406'
SELECT
convert(varchar(6), dateadd(MM,-3, convert(datetime, substring(cast(EMR_REPORTING.dbo.vMH_MEASURE_PRACTICE.RPT_YEAR_MONTH as varchar), 5,2) + '/' + '30' + '/'+ substring(cast(EMR_REPORTING.dbo.vMH_MEASURE_PRACTICE.RPT_YEAR_MONTH as varchar), 1,4))), 112) as prequarter,
Primed_Status,
EHR
FROM
EMR_REPORTING.dbo.vMH_MEASURE_PRACTICE
where RPT_YEAR_MONTH = @Prompt('Enter values for Rpt Year Month:','N','Folder\MeasurePractice\Rpt Year Month',Mono,Constrained)
Thanks in advance for any inputs.
Regards.

Please check the Prompt definition and whether you are entering all the parameters in the prompt syntax. As I could see there are only 5 parameters there in your prompt definitions

Way to use Prompts , UDFs in Derived table

Hi guys,
In our org we have been using prompts in the derived tables. Derived table would return Single final select statement. Now that report requirements are complex we would have to use table variables, UDFs, and many select, delete, update statements. How should we handle many such statements in a derived table to return a result set for the report?
If we cannot handle many selects in a derived table, I am hoping to use Table-Valued Function in the derived table something like this:
create myFunction()
Returns Table as (......)
select * from myFunction()
But then I should be able to use the user input prompts in the syntax: @PROMPT('test1','A',Multi,,). The user would input 5 such prompts from the report.
Any ideas from anyone who has used Prompts, UDFs in a derived table?
Environment: BO X1r2, Crystal x1r2, sql server 2005
Thanks !

In the past, I have opted to create complex logic in a server-side procedure, complete with prompts. The prompt are passed to and presented in Crystal. This way, instead of splitting the logic between UDFs, derived tables and prompts, you can keep the logic in a relatively tidy procedure.

Business Rule - Invalid prompt error - Security flaw?

Hello all,
I have a business rule in which users transfers volume from one cost center to another. The users have write access to sending cost centers and no access to receiving and this is how it is need. When I designed the rule and during the testing the business rule ran fine. I am pretty sure that I ran the rule successfully with a test user setup with a lower access to test the scenario. But now the rule has stopped working. It will work only if I give write acess to user to both sending and receiving cost center.
The error message is " The following value is not valid for the run time prompt it was entered for: CCName."
As far as I understand, the security controls access to objects like calc scripts. The access just gives users the rights to view/run the script but what ever is written in script, even if it outside the scope of user access, it will still get executed. I am positive that I have done this before and it worked fine.
Any ideas as to why this wont work and why the error would start popping up? Nothing has been changed in the system.

Hi Amit,
The person running the rule will need to have read access to both cost centers in order to transfer otherwise as you have seen the prompt will be invalid -- when select the prompt you should find the cost center that have no access to do not appear in the prompt itself. If you a value that the prompt does not make available then it will error out.
If you do not want to provide read access to both cost centers, you may be able to setup a multi-step process with a transfer out by a previous owner and transfer in by the new owner using a temporary cost center both have read access to -- workforce planning uses both (one step and two step) depending on how your security is provisioned.

Prompt error/invalid in Derived table

Hello everyone...
I have a filter in my Universe.
filter1
dbo.RPT_YEAR_MONTH= dateadd(month, -3, @Prompt('Enter values for Rpt Year Month:','N','Folder\MeasurePractice\Rpt Year Month',Mono,Constrained))
Now i want to write a derived table...I expect that the derived table should select data for primed status when input for reporting period is given and miuns 3 months to that input perios and give data for Primed Status.
But i am getting an invalid prompt error for below...
Select
dbo.vMH_MEASURE_PROVIDER.PRIMED_STATUS
from
dbo.vMH_MEASURE_PROVIDER
Where
dbo.vMH_MEASURE_PRACTICE.RPT_YEAR_MONTH= dateadd(month, -3, @Prompt('Enter values for Rpt Year Month:','N','Folder\MeasurePractice\Rpt Year Month',Mono,Constrained))

Can we create prompts in Derived Table sql query

Hi,
I am trying to define derived table sql query as below. Though the syntax parsing is going through but when I am generating the report it is throwing and invalid prompt definition error.
" select * from table_a where call_direction = @Prompt('Enter Call Direction','A','"derivedtable_a".SHORT_STRING',mono,free,not_persistent,) and
where call_type = @Prompt('Enter Call Direction','A','"derivedtable_b".SHORT_STRING',mono,free,not_persistent,) "
Can somebody please share your thoughts if this can be achieved in universe or not ?
Appreciate immediate responses as it is a show stopper for my deliverable.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks and Regards,
Shireen.

Hi Shireen
We can use prompt in the derived table. There is issue with the SQL that you have used while creating the Derived Table.
Instead of using the "derivedtable_a".SHORT_STRING' field use the object from the class on which you are creating the derived table.
For example: If you are creating a derived table in the sample universe efashion on Agg_yr_qt_rn_st_ln_ca_sr table then use the following query:
SELECT *
FROM Agg_yr_qt_rn_st_ln_ca_sr
WHERE Agg_yr_qt_rn_st_ln_ca_sr.Yr = @Prompt ('Enter Value','C','Time Period\Year',mono,constrained)
Hope this helps!
Thanks

@prompt functions usage in Derived table

How can we use prompt functions in Derived table?.Please repaly ASAP.
Advanced thanks.
Thanks&Regards
Ramu

Hi Ramu,
It is quite straight foward.You define your derived table using the normal sql but then put in the @prompt code in the where clause.
This worked for me in XI 3.0 using the Efashion universe.
SELECT
Article_Lookup_criteria.Article_Lookup_criteria_id,
Article_Lookup_criteria.Article_criteria_id,
Article_Lookup_criteria.criteria_type
FROM
Article_Lookup_criteria
WHERE
Article_Lookup_criteria.criteria_label = @prompt('Label,'A',,Mono,Free,Presistent)

HI
In this specific report ran above the offending sql uses a CTE.
I am on 11.1.1.6.1, Windows Server 2008
Currently in testing phase in migration from 10g.
I know what the error means, just not how to resolve it or what setting may be causing this.

In Physical layer, go to specific database(Physical layer's) properties, database features tab -> Un check the EXPRESSION_IN_ORDERBY_SUPPORTED.
For that failed report, go to Answers-> advance tab-> Look for 'Advanced SQL Clauses'
Check this box to issue an explicit Select Distinct
Let me know updates

Error while deriving the currency from table

i am getting the below error while simulating the payroll for india.
Error while deriving the currency from table T001P & Error during Initialization of payroll.
i am SAP HCM Trainee.. practicing at home.

Pls check the currency in table T500C.
You can use TCode OE00 for table maintenance T500C.
Also check whether currency is there in table V_CURC and T510.
Hope this will help.

Error while deriving the currency from table T001P.

Hi Friends,
I am trying to run payroll for NZ using schema NZ00 but i am getting an error stating "Error while deriving the currency from table T001P. Error during initialization of Payroll"
I have checked V_T001P, V_T001 and have deleted the personnel area and subarea and again created it but still i am unable to solve this problem.
Could you please help me as to where this error can be corrected.
Thanks,
Manj

About the incidence, the problem might be related to the links between
personnel area, company code and currency set up (table T001P, T500P and
T001).
Please check the following points:
1- Have you assigned the Personnel area to the Company code under SPRO -
IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Human Resource Management
-> Assignment of Personnel Area to Company Code.
2- SPRO -> Personnel Management -> Personnel Admin -> Basic Settings ->
Determine Currencies (Public Sector Currency Need to be maintained along
with the other node).
3- SPRO- Personnel Management -> Personnel Admin -> Payroll Data ->
Basic Pay -> Define Hourly Rates for several decimal places. (Please
maintain all the nodes).
4- Maintaining the table t500c through transaction code OE00.
Regards
Ramana

Error while deriving the currencyfrom table T001P for International payrol

Dear Experts,
when i run the payroll in simulation mode. im geting an error msg as ' error while deriving the currency from table T001P'
I have checked all PA assignement with compnay code and country grouping (molga =99), which is correct and also i have checked all bellow tables.
V_T510F_B
T500W
T500C
Transaction code OE00
In Trasaction code OE00, system not allowing me to give the currency (LKR - Srilankan Rupees). its giving an error msg as ' maximum of 2entries are allowed for each country in table T500c'(Its not alowing me to save it)
I dont knw how to over come from this issue.
I have chnaged the company code and tried but still im getting the same error while running the payroll.
Any idea from Anyone....?
Regards
Dinesh.

HI Mohan,
Thz for your reply.i have checked all tables which u have mentioned. but currency (LKR- Srilankan Rupees) has been assigned.
In V_CURC.. there are no 2 entires. but when i try to assign the currency in T-Code OE00. its giving an error msg " A maximum 2 entries are allowed for each country in Table T500C"
I have tried to make one more intry in the same table and the same currency then its giving an error msg as " An entry already exist with the same key"
V_TCURR is currency exchnage rate... Is it necesory?
Thz,

Error while deriving currency from table T001P

Hi All,
Error while deriving currency from table T001P
I am getting this error while payroll run by using country GRP=99 in SU2 for Non-SAP supported country.
I assigned country grouping as 99 in V_T500P table while assigning comp code to personnel area.
The company code is assigned with BD as country key in configuration and currency as BDT.
Referring previous links for the same error I checked all concerned tables and maintained correctly.
What will be the probable reason of this error?

Hi,
I had the exact same problem a while back. The problem was that in V_T001 I had a different comp code which was either assigned to the same country that had a blank currency or assigned to the same currency but was missing the country. It was a different comp code than the one I was running payroll for so it took a long time to find the cause - I'll bet this is what's causing your error.

NVL in prompt on date in derived table

hi
needed some help in derived table end date is bind variable data base is oracle
like this how to apply prompt on this if end Date =0 or no value could accept in prompt
ch.endDate <= nvl(:end Date,ch.endDate)
i've tried in report level but optional prompt is not available could you please help me out of this

Hi
derived table will not pass null values using @prompt
use this formula
To_date(CASE WHEN @prompt(':bind variabe','D',,mono,free,persistent,{'01/01/2099'}) = '01/01/2099' then to_char(ch.end_date) else @prompt(':bind variabe','D',,mono,free,persistent,{'01/01/2099'}) END)
for only in this situation it will work ch.end_date=NVL(:end date,ch.end_date)
thanks
