MDO select query: how to control sort order using parameter

Hi experts, is there a way of controling the sort order of an MDO select query using some parameter?
I was thinking about using some statement like CASE [Param.1] WHEN 'abc' THEN [ORDER_NO]...END in sort section of the query but it is not working.
Of course I colud go for various select queries...but I am wondering if it can be done using only one?
Any ideas?
Thanks for any help

Hi Marco,
Yes this can be achieved dynamically using SortExpr under dynamic link assignment in MDOAction block if you are using a transaction to call it.
Please check below thread:
Re: MDO Query Action Block In MII Transaction
Or else, this [Param.1] thing should work as well provided it doesn't get the logic part in it, just pass the columns names separated by comma. Haven't tried it though, will check it for you.

Defining sort order using parameter fields

Post Author: vandersee
CA Forum: General
I've created a report, the contents of which is sorted depending on a parameter selected (method used is as described in the help topic entitled "Defining sort order using parameter fields". Is it possible to vary the Sort Direction (ascending/descending) using parameters also, so that if I choose to sort by field A it will be ascending, but descending if I choose to sort by field B?

You can create a Parameter {?Sort Order} make it a string, and add items A to Z and Z to A and a formula and sort the group using the formula.
Group Expert, select the group, select options, check use a formula as group sort order
if {?Sort Order} = "A to Z" then crAscendingOrder else crDescendingOrder
And your group will sort based on what is selected in the parameter.

How to Control Sort Order of Playlists in iTunes?

As far as I can tell, somewhere along the way iTunes stopped sorting playlists alphabetically, numbers before letters, and started sorting playlists alphabetically, letters before numbers. Or at least that's how it now happens on my iPhone; I think the change happened with the iPhone 3.0 OS update.
Has anyone found a better way to set a sort order than by putting "AA" and "AAA" in front of the playlists they want to have at the top of the list? Because that's an awfully inelegant solution -- to my mind, if you have to use a prefix at all, using 01, 02 et cetera was a far better way of doing things. Is there a setting I can tick to go back to the old way? Or, better still, a way to set that sort order arbitrarily, independent of the playlists' names?
Message was edited by: Andrew Willett

If you label your favorite/priority playlists as A1, A2, A3...B1, B2, B3
Then they will sort the way you want (except on the iPod Classic which seems to have it's own sorting).

How to link Purchase Order using account assignment category "F"* to asset

Hello,
I'd like to know how to link Purchase Order, using account assignment category "F" to asset .
When I enter asset no. in my ANEK table, po no(ebeln) and po item(ebelp) field is blank.
whether every line item in a Purchase order have differrent asset.
can anybody give me the link between asset and materal no?
Regards,
Rachel

Hi Rachel,
Your message is a little bit confusing. There is no link between the asset and material number. If you want to post your purchase order, using account assignment F - that is internal order - you may do it. Futher, you can settle the postings from this order to asset.
You can read more here:

...how to control movie clips using mause scroller...?

Hi Ldavinci, I have noticed your posts on that particular
site before. Just chiming in here... don't be afraid of Flash Help
menu. There's a wealth of information there and I've found it much
faster than waiting for a response from the forum. Then if it still
doesn't make sense, at least you have a basic idea of specifics to
ask.
If you search for mouse wheel, you'll see an example under
the Actionscript 2.0 Language Reference on this topic. That said,
here's the example:

Select query gives result in abc order instead of creation order

Hi,
I used the following command in sql command window to insert some rows to my table:
SQL>
SQL> insert into regions (Region_ID, Region_Name) values (1 , 'Zafon');
1 row inserted
SQL> insert into regions (Region_ID, Region_Name) values (2 , 'Hasharon');
1 row inserted
SQL> insert into regions (Region_ID, Region_Name) values (3 , 'Merkaz');
1 row inserted
SQL> insert into regions (Region_ID, Region_Name) values (4 , 'Jerusalem');
1 row inserted
SQL> insert into regions (Region_ID, Region_Name) values (5 , 'Hashfela');
1 row inserted
SQL> insert into regions (Region_ID, Region_Name) values (6 , 'Darom');
1 row insertedWhen I use select * query to see the table, I get the content in abc order:
SQL> SELECT * FROM REGIONS;
REGION_ID REGION_NAME
        6 Darom
        2 Hasharon
        5 Hashfela
        4 Jerusalem
        3 Merkaz
        1 Zafon
6 rows selectedHow can I get the result in the creation order (first created- first shown)?
Thanks

>
How can I get the result in the creation order (first created- first shown)?
>
You can't - not unless you use a solution that you should NEVER use unless absolutely necessary.
WHY do you need to do this? You never provide a reason.
To get a result in creation order there are two requirements:
1. Use an ORDER BY when you query the table - this is the only requirement others have mentioned
2. Control and specify the creation order when you INSERT the data
Unfortunately there is only ONE way that I am aware of to implement #2 above (i.e. to control the insertion order) and that is to SERIALIZE the insertion of rows into the table. That means that only ONE user can insert rows into the table at a time perhaps by using a stored procedure to perform the insert.
In a multi-user system a USER can NOT see uncommitted data of other users. If a user uses a trigger and a SEQUENCE generator to generate ascending numbers another user can use that same trigger and sequence to generate numbers also. If the first user performs an INSERT and gets number 37 but doesn't commit a second user can perform an INSERT, get number 38 and COMMIT before the first user commits.
That means that the row with 38 was created (committed) first but has a higher sequence than the row with 37.
The best you can do is use a sequence generator to generate unique ascending numbers. Then you can query the data using an ORDER BY on the column that contains the sequence value. But, as shown above, that doesn't guarantee that the rows were actually committed in that order.
That may sound like a trivial distinction but it has a very important implication. It means that you can NOT use that sequenced column to extract data reliably for batch-type processing. For the above example supposed your batch process extracted data for values from 1 to 38 and then that first user did a COMMIT.
The next extract would be for values from 39 to 50 (or some other value) and the row with 37 would never be extracted. For the same reasons you can't use a CREATION_DATE value for such extract purposes either since you would have the same issue.

How change the sort order of searched items so last search item shows first. I DO NOT mean the order of search engines, but existing searches by down arrow key

I want to be able to change the sort order of items I have already searched for in the search box. I want to be able to hit the down arrow key and see my previous searches in the order of last search showing first. At the moment I have no idea how it is sorting and it's very annoying to have to re-type a query I typed 5 minutes earlier but because I typed in another 10 since it is lost somewhere in the list. Can this be done, I have googled but did not find the topic anywhere. Just to clarify, I DO NOT MEAN the order of search engines (which is all that comes up in google), I mean the actual text typed in which has been saved in the drop down list.
Thanks

The "form fill" feature uses a "frecency" algorithm, frequency + recency, similar to the address bar autocomplete list.
I found an extension that seems relevant, but the reviews are old so I'm not sure it's still working: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/searchbar-autocomplete-order/ Searchbar Autocomplete Order].
But... is the autocomplete not working? I would expect that typing a couple characters of the earlier query would filter the list so you can easily select it? Or is the problem that the list doesn't remember enough searches for that?

How to keep sort order in Shuttle item's source and destination boxes?

I have defined a shuttle item on a page and the list of values in the source box is populated by a SQL with sort order specified. In the Settings of the shuttle item, Show Controls value is set to Moving Only instead of All. When a user moves selected values from the source box to the destination box or vice versa, the list of values does not maintain the original sort order. For example, if I have 26 values A through Z, a user can put value Z before A in the destination box. And when a user move A from the destination box to the source box, A is the last item in the source box. The reset button clears everything in the destination box and resets the source box to the original sorted list. This is not the solution that I am looking for. I would like to see the items in the source and destination boxes to maintain their original sort order all the time.
Is it possible?

How to control sorting in Charts in Obiee 11.1.15

Hi All,
I have a requirement of creating a chart where the Horizontal axis being populated with dynamic values
Problem is , when I try to give alias names for these values it is disturbing the sort order which is came before
Can anyone suggest a solution for this problem(for giving alias names for these dynamic values but it should not disturb the sort order which comes before)
Regards,
ao

Hi Naresh
Thanks for your reply.
In ViewCriteria -> UI Hints we can set attribute Rendered Mode as never, but that perticular attribute still appear in 'Add Fields' section.
I think renderedMode=never means that attribute doesn't appear in Advance or Basic mode user need to manually select that attribute.
So please suggest me how to achive my requirement.

In Select query how to fetch values through multiple parameters where conditon

Dear Experts,
I have one table(T) with 4 fields: f1, f2, f3, f4. In that based on f2, f3, f4 and parameter condition( f2 values) how to fetch f1 values. I have attached screen shot. What is the where condition in select query?
DATA: it_T type standard table of ty_T,
          wa_T type ty_T.
parameters: p_f2_1 type T-f3,
                  p_f2_2 type T-f3,
                  p_f2_3 type T-f3,
                  p_f2_4 type T-f4,
                  p_f2_5 type T-f4,
                  p_f2_6 type T-f4.
select f1 f2 f3 f4 from T into table it_T where ?
What is the where condition ?.
Regards,
Abbas.

Hi Syed,
Do all the parameters p_f2_1 ... p_f2_6 contain values for the same field f2? And do you need all the entries from the table T which contain f2 = any of the entered value? If yes, Then you can try the following where condition -
select f1 f2 f3 f4 from T into table it_T
where f2 = p_f2_1 OR
             f2 = p_f2_2 OR
             f2 = p_f2_3 OR
             f2 = p_f2_4 OR
             f2 = p_f2_5 OR
             f2 = p_f2_6.
P.S: If any of the above parameters are optional as per your requirement it will be better to build a dynamic query and use it in the where condition.
Regards,
Rachna.

How to change sort order when viewing all tracks by an artist?

When I choose:
Music --> Artists --> <any artist> --> All
The tracks are organized in the order they apear in an alphabetized list of that artist's albums.
For example:
Joe Blow - CD 1
Track 1
Track 2
Track 3
Joe Blow - CD 2
Track 1
Track 2
Track 3
In the "All Songs By Artist" list, the songs appear as:
Track 1
Track 2
Track 3
Track 1
Track 2
Track 3
How can I cange the sort order, so that they are sorted alphabetically, like this?
Track 1
Track 1
Track 2
Track 2
Track 3
Track 3
Thanks,

I'm pretty sure you can't do that.
