MDX query To get DateKey based on my Dimension table

Hi,
In my Date dimension table DateKey will be 1,2,3,4........
DateKey 1= 22nd Jan,2010
DateKey 2= 23rd Jan,2010
DateKey 3= 24th Jan,2010.
Now i want to get Today date(Ex.22jan2014) and LastYearSameDay date(Ex.23jan2014) by using mdx query.
Can you please suggest me.
Sudhan

Hi Sudhan,
According to your description, you want to get Today date and LastYearSameDay date by using mdx query. In this case, you can use Now() function and DateAdd function to get the result. Here is a sample query for your reference.
WITH MEMBER Measures.Today AS vba!Now(), FORMAT_STRING="Short Date"
MEMBER Measures.Yesterday AS Dateadd("d",-1,Measures.Today), FORMAT_STRING="Short Date"
SELECT {Measures.Today,Measures.Yesterday} on 0
FROM

SQL query to get last 10 records in the table?

Hi,
Can anyone tell me the SQL query to get last 10 records in the table?
Thanks!!
MCP

Please, define what "last" means. Sets are unordered by definition, so if you want to retrieve rows from a table in a specific order you need to specify what that order is - e.g. by maintaining a value in a column (or a combination of columns) that you can use in the ORDER BY clause of the SELECT statement.
If, for instance, you kept the time when the row was inserted in a special column (InsertedTime), you could use this in your query like this:
select top (10)
<column list>
from <table or view>
where <restriction(s)>
order by InsertedTime desc;

Query to get values based on a date range.

11g.
Hi there,
I have a simple requirement(hopefully).
I have a parameter which is basically a count range which when I pass the sql query should fetch the values from a column falling in that range.
My table is item details
Item                  cost
item1                   1
item2                   10
item3                   20
item4                   3
.I have a parameter which I have to pass to this query where items are listed based on the cost.
So I want to select items which cost between 0 -10, 11-20, 21-30 and 31-40
Now I am using Apex to show the count report like
0-10      11- 20    21- 30   31- 40
3             2           0          0
The numbers are hyperlinked and I pass the parameters based on which another report shows the details. So if the user clicks on number 3 in the report. The underlying query would be something like
select * from item_Details where cost between 0 and 10.So I was wondering how do pass the parameter to the sql in the best possible way to get the costs based on the range?
Maybe the parameters should be some code which can be decoded in the SQL?
Any help or suggestions please?
Thanks,
Ryan

Hi,
Try this to pass the parameter in the query...
select * from item_Details where cost between to_number(substr('0-10',0,instr('0-10','-')-1)) and to_number(substr('0-10',instr('0-10','-')+1,length('0-10'));

MDX query issue - get key instead of text

Hello,
My BW query contain single row of type 0FUNDS_CTR that should be display key and not text. When query is running from query designer I can see the key in the results.
But, when I try to get the results of MDX statemet on this query I see the text of 0FUNDS_CTR instead of key!
My query is:
SELECT NON EMPTY [[Measures]].MEMBER ON AXIS(0),
NON EMPTY [[0FUNDS_CTR]].MEMBERS ON AXIS(1) FROM
[[MY_CUBE_NAME/MY_QUERY_NAME]]
CELL PROPERTIES CELL_ORDINAL, VALUE, FORMATTED_VALUE
I try to replace VALUE to KEY in
"CELL PROPERTIES CELL_ORDINAL, VALUE, FORMATTED_VALUE" query part and even remove this declaration but there is no effect.
I need to work with MDX statements like this and run them from with BI SDK XMLA Connector.
Any idea?
Thanks,
Ola

Hi Ola,
Regarding your case ..
Could you try to go to your query using ur query designer, then go to 0FUNDS_CTR property.
Set the attribute display as to be KEY.
And run again your MDX.
See the result, whether it change into your expectation / not ??
Hopefully it can help you a lot.

MDX query to get negative measures

I need to query a cube with all negative
values, unfortunately I'm new to MDX and find the syntax very alien compared to
SQL.
I want to get the sum
of all negative values from the database.
SQL would
be:
SELECT Desk,Rating_Group, SUM(Value)
FROM fact
WHERE
SUM(Value)<0
GROUP BY Desk,Rating_Group
I've tried various ways to
get the data, but the aggregation does not
appear to be correct.
MDX:
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[Long]
AS
IIF(
[Measures].[Risk Value]<0,
[Measures].[Risk
Value],
NULL)
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Long]} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY { ([Vdim Curve Family].[Hierarchy].[SP Rating Group]*[Vdim
Book].[Desk].[Desk].Members) }
ON ROWS
FROM [DM]
What appears to
be happenning is that the data is being pre-aggregated, so it returns the
equivalent of the SQL
SELECT Desk,Rating_Group, SUM(Value)
FROM
fact
GROUP BY Desk,Rating
HAVING SUM(Value)<0
I've also tried
filter, aggregate,sum and all appear to give me the same
problem.
Comments gratefully received, thanks if anyone can enlighten
me.
I'm considering going back to the view that builds my cube and
changing it and adding a new measure, but it seems over the top for something
which is so easy in SQL.

Thanks for the reply Mosha.
One of the main benefits of putting the data into a cube is that there are less problems with locking, which is a major problem due to the requirements to run a large number of reports.
MDX queries have less performance problems in terms of concurrency and this is my reason for attempting to get the data into a cube. Going back to SQL would excacerbate the problems I have at the moment (unfortunately politics means that I cannot replace some of the existing data sources with a integration services solution).
I think my research leads me to believe that my best option will be to go back to my data source views that populate the cube and attempt to use a case statement to populate a negative and positive value fields.
I'm finding MDX a fustrating experience, the language is very close to SQL, but a lot of the functions do not do what would be obvious to a SQL programmer and there is a steep learning curve as I'm finding 10 years of SQL development is not always helpful.

Mdx query to get the last date of every month if the month is current month need current date..

i have a scenario where i need the data of last date of every month and if the month is current month need current date data...
is it possible using MDX...

Hi Shashi,
According to your description, you want to return the last day for each month except current month, right?
In MDX, we can use ClosingPeriod function to return the member that is the last sibling among the descendants of a specified member at a specified level, here is a sample query for you reference.
with member [measures].[a]
as
ClosingPeriod ([Date].[Calendar].[Date],[Date].[Calendar].currentmember).name
select {[measures].[a]} on 0,
[Date].[Calendar].[Month].members on 1
from
[Adventure Works]
And then use the IIF function to evaluate if the month is current month. Please refer to the links below.

MDX query Help - filtering Measures based on values in a dimension.

Hi,
I want to get values of a aggregate measure filtered by value available in Dimension attribute.

Now I want to get a query where I can get the "Average Compliance" which is higher then the target average compliance.
Is this achievable?
Thanks in advance.

HI,
I did give this a try. (replacing the date dimensions.)
WITH MEMBERMEASURES.mycalc AS
[Dim Measure].[Target].
CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_KEY
SELECT
{[Measures].[Average Compliance],MEASURES.mycalc}

FILTER([Dim Measure].[Target].[Target]
,([Measures].[Average Compliance] * 100) <
--80
CINT([Dim Measure].[Target].
CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_KEY)
)*[Dim Measure].[Measure Uri].[Measure Uri]
ON1
I am still seeing values for average compliance which are more than the target (I even tried setting the value to be hardcoded to 80 and I still see average compliance of 100
Thanks

Query to get rows betwen x and y + table total row count

Hi,
I try get rows between e.g. 100 and 150 when I sort by some column
My query is now like this
SELECT *
FROM
(SELECT a.*,
    row_number() OVER (ORDER BY OWNER ASC) rn,
    COUNT(1) over() mrn
FROM (SELECT * FROM all_objects) a
WHERE ROWNUM BETWEEN least(100,mrn) AND 150It is not very fast if I run that kind select from big table
Any tips to optimize this query?
Regards,
Jari

Hi,
I'm so bad with SQL :(
Here is sample where I need that kind query.
http://actionet.homelinux.net/htmldb/f?p=100:504
It looks standard Apex report but it is not.
It is just test to use query to output html using htp package
I send parameter start row, max rows, column I like order by.
Now I do query for cursor
    /* Report query */
    l_sql := '
      SELECT * FROM(
        SELECT a.*, row_number() OVER (ORDER BY '
        || l_sort_col
        || ' '
        || l_sort_ord
        || ') rn, COUNT(1) over() mrn
        FROM(' || l_sql || ') a
      ) WHERE rn BETWEEN LEAST(' || l_start_row || ',mrn) AND ' || l_last_row
    ;Then I loop cursor and output html.
You can order report by click heading and there is that pagination
I did not know that I could find examples by "pagination query" =), thanks for that tip for both of you.
I know Apex have reports ,
but I need have features that Apex templates can not provide at least yet.
So I have study that generating html tables using custom package instead Apex report should be best approach to get layouts I need.

Jari

How to build query to get tree architecture of self referencing table

Dear all,
I have the following table design :
This is a self referencing table representing a set of SubCategories which can have parent sub categories or not. I did not show here the Category table.
If the Subcategory has the ParentSubCategory ID = null, then this is a root subcategory otherwise it is a child of a parent sub category.
What I am looking for is the easy way to display the structure level by ProductCategoryID ?
Thanks for helps

you can use a recursive logic based on CTE for that
something like this would be enough
;WITH ProdSubCat_Hiererchy
AS
SELECT psc.ProductSubCategoryID,c.CategoryName,psc.ParentSubCategoryID, psc.Name,CAST(psc.Name AS varchar(max)) AS [Path],1 AS [level]
FROM ProductSubCategory psc
INNER JOIN Category c
ON c.CategoryID = psc.ProductCategoryID
WHERE psc.ParentSubCategoryID IS NULL
UNION ALL
SELECT psc.ProductSubCategoryID,c.CategoryName,psc.ParentSubCategoryID, psc.Name,CAST(psch.[Path] + '/' + psc.Name AS varchar(max)) AS [Path],psch.[level] + 1
FROM ProductSubCategory psc
INNER JOIN Category c
ON c.CategoryID = psc.ProductCategoryID
INNER JOIN ProdSubCat_Hiererchy psch
ON psch.ProductSubCategoryID = psc.ParentSubCategoryID
SELECT *
FROM ProdSubCat_Hiererchy
ORDER BY LEFT([Path],CHARINDEX('/',[Path]+'/')-1),[Level]
OPTION (MAXRECURSION 0)

Bw publish and connections not based on the sap bw mdx query driver

Dear experts,
we are currently facing a problem with transporting reports that are based on multiple database connections and joined using the cross database join feature of crystal reports. One connection is based on the SAP BW MDX driver, the other is based on a SAP functionmodule.
Now when transporting the reports with STMS and publishing them via /crystal/rptadmin and bwpublish only the bex mdx query connection gets updated. The other connection is still pointing to the original location.
e.g.
transporting
DEV -> PROD
function module still pointing on dev server.
As we need to use the sap default transport system in order to get all features (no SP4 yet) and we can not change the reports manually in the PROD system before publishnig and don't want to mix in the LCM we have no idea how get a work around for this problem.
Changing the database connection via CMC on the PROD system has no effect either.
Please help.
Thank you very much!
Thorsten

Hello Thorsten,
What you observe is "By Design" of the product. The dynamic update is supported only for reports using the BW MDX driver (or historically for those using the deprecated BW query driver). Other SAP drivers such as the OpenSQL driver which you use to connect to the function module do not leverage the same features when using the SAP Transport process.
You may report directly against your target system when connecting to Function Modules.
thanks,
Akin

SSRS report with cube – MDX query how to get an extra row with value '0'.

Hello everyone,
I'm unable to write the MDX query to get '0' value as first row in output. Following is my MDX query:
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[Dummy] AS   '0'
SELECT NON EMPTY Union( {[Measures].[Amount] },{[Measures].[Dummy]}) ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY { ([Customer].[Customer Nbr].[Customer Nbr].ALLMEMBERS * [Fiscal].[Year].[Year].ALLMEMBERS ) }
having [Measures].[Amount] > 5000
ON ROWS FROM [cube]
With above query, the output returns the value '0' as a separate column.
I would like to get it in form of first row for [Measures].[Amount]. Like,
Amount
0
500
200
100
What needs to be changed to achieve the above result? I'm planning to use the above value in line chart to start the line from 0th value as described in following URL. (Note: The below URL is using SQL query and not MDX expressions.)

The round brackets in your expression are forcing an implicit crossjoin between the 3 lines. I would do the following which creates a set of the DummyYear plus the real year members and then crossjoin that with the customer set.
WITH MEMBER [Fiscal].[Year].DummyYear AS   '0'
SELECT NON EMPTY {[Measures].[Amount]} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY {[Fiscal].[Year].DummyYear,
     [Fiscal].[Year].[Year].MEMBERS} *
            [Customer].[Customer Nbr].[Customer Nbr].MEMBERS
having [Measures].[Amount] > 5000
ON ROWS FROM [cube]

MDX query for to get the data from two cubes

Hi
Can you tell me how to create MDX query to get the values from two cubes. (One hierarchy from first cube and one hierarchy from second cube)
Can you give me one example.
Regards,
Madhu.
Sudhan

Hi Sudhan,
According to your description, you want to retrieve data from two different cubes, right? The short answer is yes. To query multiple cubes from a single MDX statement use the LOOKUPCUBE function (you can't specify multiple cubes in your FROM statement).
The LOOKUPCUBE function will only work on cubes that utilize the same source database as the cube on which the MDX statement is running. For the detail information about it, please refer to the link below to see the blog.

Need help in MDX query

Hi All
I am new to MDX language and need a MDX functions/query on the cube to get the required output, Given below is the scenario with the data.
I am maintaining the data in a table in dataMart with given structure. We have the data at day and weekly in a single table with granularity indicator and count is the measure group column. While loading the data in to mart table we are populaiting the week
Key from week table and Month key from month table and joining in the cube.
we need to calculate the inventory for a particular month. If a user selects a particular month the output would be count = 30 as a measure called Closed and count = 16 as a measure value called Open.
Need a MDX query to get output.

Hi Venkatesh,
According to your description, you need to count the members with conditions in a particular month, right?
In MDX, we can achieve the requirement by using Count and Filter function, I have tested it on AdventureWorks cube, the sample query below is for you reference.
with member [ConditionalCount]
as
count(filter([Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2008]&[2].children,[Measures].[Internet Order Count]>50))
select {[Measures].[Internet Order Count],[ConditionalCount]} on 0,
[Date].[Calendar].[Date].members on 1
from
(select [Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2008]&[2] on 0 from
[Adventure Works]
