MDX used in Universe for Prompt returns Incorrect Result

Hi All,
I have created an optional predefined filter in the universe like so... (and for many other characteristics too...)
<OPTIONAL>
<FILTER KEY="[0COMP_CODE].[LEVEL01]">
<CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="InList">
<CONSTANT CAPTION="@Prompt('Select Company Code(s)','A','Company code\Company code',multi,constrained)">
</CONSTANT>
</CONDITION>
</FILTER>
</OPTIONAL>
The code works i.e The prompt comes up, the text is correct, the list of values are correct. BUT....
This is a multi value prompt i.e In List... So when I select only 1 Comany code i.e CODE-1, run the Webi report, the result is as expected, the reports displays all the data for Company code - CODE-1.
When I refersh the report and add CODE-2, so the list now has CODE-1 and CODE-2 in the prompt... only the data for CODE-1 is displayed in the report, and CODE-2's data is not returned.
I also find that when I select CODE-2 first, then CODE-1, then only CODE-2's data is returned, so I can safely say that only the first selected Company code is returned in the Webi report irrespective of how many Company codes where selected in the list.
This behaviour also affects any other characteristic on which filter is created in this manner.
Has anyone experienced this behaviour? Is there something on the BW side that needs to be checked? or is this a bug?
Thanks

Hi Uwe,
Yes... the issue is that we need to use short XML tags. The issue is also documented in one of the release notes.
In the example below, you can see the </CONSTANT> tag is used. This is what is causing the issue.
<OPTIONAL>
<FILTER KEY="[0COMP_CODE].[LEVEL01]">
<CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="InList">
<CONSTANT CAPTION="@Prompt('Select Company Code(s)','A','Company code\Company code',multi,constrained)">
</CONSTANT>
</CONDITION>
</FILTER>
</OPTIONAL>
So... to ge the results correctly, we need to remove the </CONTSTANT> tag and close it at the end of the prompt line with a /, now the same code looks like this...
<OPTIONAL>
<FILTER KEY="[0COMP_CODE].[LEVEL01]">
<CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="InList">
<CONSTANT CAPTION="@Prompt('Select Company Code(s)','A','Company code\Company code',multi,constrained)"/>
</CONDITION>
</FILTER>
</OPTIONAL>
I have tested this using other operators and it works fine.

Rp_provide_from_last returns incorrect result

Hi
When issuing rp_provide_from_last for IT2001, we get incorrect result.
rp-provide-from-last p2001 space '19000101' '99991231'
This macro does not return the latest record. Instead it returns the record with the highest subtype #. (It actually returns the last record shown in a SE16N listing of PA2001).
Has anyone seen this problem?
We are on SAP 4.7., SP 85.
Best regards
Kirsten

Pleas Try this
Usage:
Only in PNP database reports under GET PERNR, because the personnel number for which data is being read comes from field PERNR-PERNR, while the field being used is PNP-SW-AUTH-SKIPPED-RECORD.
(RP_READ_ALL_TIME_ITY beg end)
   DATA: BEGDA LIKE P2001-BEGDA, ENDDA LIKE P2001-ENDDA.
   INFOTYPES: 0000, 0001, 0002, ...
                     2001 MODE N, 2002 MODE N, ...
     GET PERNR.
   BEGDA = '19900101'. ENDDA = '19900131'.
   RP_READ_ALL_TIME_ITY BEGDA ENDDA.
   IF PNP-SW-AUTH-SKIPPED-RECORD NE '0'.
      WRITE: / 'Authorization for time data missing'.
      WRITE: / 'for personnel number', PERNR-PERNR. REJECT.
   ENDIF.
Remarks
This RMAC module can be used when, for example, the time infotypes were originally defined in MODE N. This was done because the time data (from LOW-DATE to HIGH-DATE) might not all have fitted into the buffer. Now, however, they are read with shorter intervals (for example, in RPCALCx0 with payroll periods).
-Due to the large amount of data in HR, the infotypes 2000 u2013 2999 should not be read when GET PERNR occurs. Therefore, these infotypes are declared with the enhancement MODE N.
-As a result, the infotype tables under GET PERNR are not filled. The time infotype tables are filled subsequently using the macro RP_READ_ALL_TIME_ITY, but only for the time interval specified by PN-BEGDA and PN-ENDDA.

Very strange bug with compareTo: returning incorrect results

Hello everyone! I have used the method compareTo many times to maintain my database project's entries. However recently I have discovered a bug, in which:
a and b both being Storage type objects:
private static class Storage {
object data
int nextData //an array stores the Storage objects
int previousData //this uses an integer to locate previous in array
Problem:
((Comparable)(a.data)).compareTo((Comparable)(b.data)) returns a 3, when a.data is clearly 5, and b.data is clearly 20.
This is very strange, as the compareTo should return a -1 instead of a positive number. Is this a known bug with the compareTo method? I have been using it reliably for many programs but this is the first time it ever occurs to me.

Problem:
((Comparable)(a.data)).compareTo((Comparable)(b.data))
returns a 3, when a.data is clearly 5, and b.data is
clearly 20.
This is very strange, as the compareTo should return a
-1 instead of a positive number. Is this a known bug
with the compareTo method? I have been using it
reliably for many programs but this is the first time
it ever occurs to me.Not really... comparing Strings "5" to "20"
is really the same as comparing "5" to "2"
being the first character of the string, difference
being, surprise, surprise = 3.
If you want the Strings to be comparable that way you should left-fill them with spaces or zeros.
Or, better still, override compareTo and make your Storage implement Comparable instead of all that casting of the data objects.

Batch Script using System Varriable for Hostname and FQDN results in large space between

I have a batch script running on Windows 7 that I've created to help a physical computer, connect to his virtual cousin. Problem is when I try to make
it use the FQDN (required by the View Client) it puts a large space between the hostname and the domain.
Result
ECHO Connecting View Client to PREFIX-SERIAL .domain.comOR"C:\Program Files\VmWare\View.exe" -Args -serverURL PREFIX-SERIAL .domain.com
Our computers are named a combination of a prefix and the serial number. Our virtual computer names are the same, but with a different prefix. So my attempt was to make a connection
script, using the computer serial number. My Process:
Setting %serial% variable.
for /F "skip=1 tokens=*" %%b in ('wmic bios get serialnumber') do if not defined serial set serial=%%b
Set %hostname% variable.
set hostname=PREFIX-%serial%
Installation command line
"C:\Program Files\VmWare\View.exe" -Args -serverURL %hostname%.domain.com
That results in the output at the beginning of my post.
I've also tried
%hostname%.%userdomain%.com
PREFIX-%serial%.%userdomain%.com
PREFIX-%serial%.domain.com
SET FQDN=.domain.com
PREFIX-%serial%%FQDN%
%hostname%%FQDN%
I also tried carets and quotes on set commands without any improvement.
I'm sure I'm missing something simple here. Any advise?
There's no place like 127.0.0.1

Will something like this get you what you are looking for?
(gwmi win32_bios).SerialNumber+(gwmi WIN32_ComputerSystem).Domain
Or
$hostname=(gwmi win32_bios).SerialNumber+"."+(gwmi WIN32_ComputerSystem).Domain
Sorry just realized your looking to do this in a Batch file...so maybe something like this
@echo off
for /F "skip=1 delims=" %%j in ('powershell "[System.Net.Dns]::GetHostByName((hostname)).HostName"') do (
set Host=%%j
goto :DONE
:DONE
echo %HOST%

SDO_DISTANCE returning incorrect results

I have a query that uses sdo_distance to find N nearest neighbors (line strings) to a lat/lon (point). The problem is that sdo_distance is giving me geometries which it says are 0 units (in this case meters) from that lat/lon when in fact they are much farther away.
here is an example:
SELECT
vw.reach_geom,
round(SDO_GEOM.SDO_DISTANCE(vw.REACH_GEOM, sdo_geometry(2001, 8307,
sdo_point_type(-88.23579545454545, 44.87982954545455, NULL),
NULL, NULL), 0.00005, 'unit=M'),4) Dist_In_Meters
FROM all_geom_vw
ORDER BY Dist_In_Meters;
i get two geometries. the first is incorrect:
GEOM
SDO_GEOMETRY(2002, 8307, NULL, SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1, 2, 1), SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(-86.687042, 45.836369, -86.687042, 45.836369, -86.689133, 45.836567))
Dist_In_Meters
0
The second one is the correct one:
GEOM
SDO_GEOMETRY(2002, 8307, NULL, SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1, 2, 1), SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(-88.380611, 44.996681, -88.380718, 44.995281, -88.380917, 44.993782,.....several other ordinates)
Dist_In_Meters
15.3559
you can tell that the second one is much closer to the point since that lat/lon coords are pretty much the same.
Any ideas what's happening here?
thanks,
John

The first two points of the bad result geometry are the same point. "-86.687042, 45.836369, -86.687042, 45.836369," I'm pretty sure this will hose many spatial operations and may not throw an exception. Edit the geometry or do a "migrate to current" and it should work.

Calling WSAGetLastError() from an IOCP thread return incorrect result

I have called WSARecv() which returned WSA_IO_PENDING. I have then sent an RST packet from the other end. The GetQueuedCompletionStatus() function which exists in another thread has returned FALSE as expected, but when I called WSAGetLastError() I got
64 instead of WSAECONNRESET.
So why WSAGetLastError() did not return WSAECONNRESET?

Hi Tom_912,
Thanks for posting in MSDN forum.
Where do you call WSAGetLastError and get 64? From your description, It seems that you call WSAGetLastError after GetQueuedCompletionStatus() function.
Read the document:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa364986(v=vs.85).aspx
We should call GetLastError to get extended error information instead of WSAGetLastError function. For the error code 64
ERROR_NETNAME_DELETED, It means that the specified network name is no longer available.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms681382(v=vs.85).aspx it's likely that your connection has gone away since GetQueuedCompletionStatus return false. Is that as your expect? If not, please provide more details about what
you do, and it would be better if you could share us some code.

Like in stored procedure returns incorrect result

Hello all,
I have a stored procedure like below
Alter PROCEDURE ContactsListBySearch
@AuthorID int,
@currentPage INT,
@pageSize INT,
@searchStr nvarchar
AS
BEGIN
set nocount on;
WITH tempLog AS (
SELECT distinct ROW_NUMBER()OVER (ORDER BY email DESC) AS Row,
email,username from AddContact where userid = @AuthorID and email like '%'+@searchStr+'%' and username like '%'+@searchStr+'%' )
SELECT email,username
FROM tempLog
WHERE Row between ((@currentPage - 1) * @pageSize + 1) and (@currentPage*@pageSize)
END
for a search string david it gives me unrelated rows.
But for the same query string david if i run the query
select email,username from addcontact where userid=2 and email like '%david%' and username like '%david%'
It gives me exact result.
How to pass an paramter as a string in the stored procedure?? please help me.

LessFilter and ReflectionExtractor API giving incorrect results

I am using Oracle Coherence version 3.7. We are storing DTO objects in cache having "modificationTime" property/instance variable of "java.util.date" type. In order to fetch data from cache passing "java.util.date" variable as input for comparison, LessFilter and ReflectionExtractor api's are used. Cache.entryset(filter) returns incorrect results.
Note: we are using "com.tangosol.io.pof.PofWriter.writeDateTime(int arg0, Date arg1) " api to store data in cache and "com.tangosol.io.pof.PofReader.readDate(int arg0)" to read data from cache. There is no readDateTime api available ?
We tested same scenario updating DTO class. Now it has another property in DTO of long(to store milliseconds). Now long is passed as input for comparison to LessFilter and ReflectionExtractor api's and correct results are retrieved.
Ideally, java.util.Date or corresponding milliseconds passed as input should filter and return same and logically correct results.
Code:
1) Test by Date: returns incorrect results
public void testbyDate(final Date startDate) throws IOException {
final ValueExtractor extractor = new ReflectionExtractor("getModificationTime");
LOGGER.debug("Fetching records from cache with modTime less than: " + startDate);
final Filter lessFilter = new LessFilter(extractor, startDate);
final Set results = CACHE.entrySet(lessFilter);
LOGGER.debug("Fetched Records:" + results.size());
assert results.isEmpty();
2) Test by milliseconds: returns correct results
public void testbyTime(final Long time) throws IOException {
final ValueExtractor extractor = new ReflectionExtractor("getTimeinMillis");
LOGGER.debug("Fetching records from cache with timeinMillis less than: " + time);
final Filter lessFilter = new LessFilter(extractor, time);
final Set results = CACHE.entrySet(lessFilter);
LOGGER.debug("Fetched Records:" + results.size());
assert results.isEmpty();
}

SQL Server 2014 - Columnstore Incorrect Results

Hello,
we are running into a problem with SQL Server 2014 and the columnstore index. We have a partitioned table with about 300 Million records in it. With SQL Server 2012 this has been in use without problems.
Since we upgraded to SQL Server 2014, the exact same queries on exactly the same data return incorrect results. We can only bypass the problem by either dropping the CS Index or adding a maxdop = 1 query hint.
I thought this was an old bug in SQL Server 2012? We have not installed the CU Pack 4 for SQL Server 2014, yet but will it solve the problem (assuming others have faced the same problem)
We are running: Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Enterprise Edition - 12.0.2000.8 (X64) on a 2x6Core Machine
Thanks in advance!

SQL Server 2012 only featured non-clustered columnstore indexes which were separate structures. Have you changed to a clustered columnstore (cs) index in SQL Server 2014? (ie dropped your non-clustered cs, created a cs)
There are a number of fixes that reference columnstore indexes in the current CUs (
CU1,
CU2, CU3,
CU4 ), but none which sound exactly like your problem.
This sounds similar and is fixed in CU1. You should review the CU documents yourself to see if any of them mention a similar problem and then consider applying the CU. You might also try applying them to a test environment, or a temporary Azure
VM for example to see if one of them solves your problem.
If you can create a reliable "repro" of the problem, consider raising a
connect item which is a Microsoft bug report.

"select count(*)" and "select single *" returns different result

Good day!
product version SAP ECC 6.0
oracle10
data transfers from external oracle db into customer tables using direct oracle db link
sometimes I get case with different results from 2 statements
*mytable has 10 rows
*1st statement
data: cnt type I value 0.
select count( * ) into cnt from mytable WHERE myfield_0 = 123 and myfield_1 = '123'.
*cnt returns 10 - correct
*2nd statement
select single * from mytable WHERE myfield_0 = 123 and myfield_1 = '123'.
*sy-dbcnt returns 0
*sy-subrc returns 4 - incorrect, 10 rows are "invisible"
but
1. se16 shows correct row number
2. I update just one row from "invisible" rows using se16 and 2nd statement returns correct result after that
can not understand why
thank you in advance.

Thank you, Vishal
but,
general problem is that
1. both statements have the same WHERE conditions
2. 1st return resultset with data (sy-dbcnt=10), 2nd return empty dataset, but must return 1 in sy-dbcnt
Yes, different meaning, you are right, but must 2nd must return 1, because of "select single *" construction, not 0.
Dataset to process is the same, WHERE conditions are equal...
I think the problem is that how ABAP interperets select count(*) and "select single *".
Maybe "select count (*)" scans only PK from index page(s)? and "select single *" scans data pages? and something is wrong with that?
I'm new in SAP and didn't find any SAP tool to trace dump of data and indexes pages with Native SQL.
se16 shows all records.
And why after simple manual update of just one record using se16 "select single *" returns 1?
I've just marked one row to update, didn't change any data, then pressed "save".

I am getthing this error while I tried to pass the value from an oracle package to the web when the the crystal report viewer kicks in.
I found the source of the error. Its just a paranthesis that I used with the phone number inside the function.... The function looks like this
function phone_number

is

return '(123) 456 - 789';
end phone_number;
I really dont want that paranthesis to go. Its the format that everyone wanted. But they dont want that to be static on the report also
Please help

Sir, you are a legend!!!
Many thanks for putting me on the right track...
Here's where I went wrong and how I fixed it.
First I installed the Azure Pack: MySQL Extension on the MySQL server.
This was wrong, it needs to be installed on the WAP server/s.
So I installed the extension on the WAP server and it still didn't work.
So I uninstalled the extension from the MySQL server and it still didn't work.
So I also installed the MySQL Connector/Net on the WAP server and it worked.
This eventually fixed it.
What I will say is that in the documentation it doesn't mention installing the MySQL Connector/Net from the web platform installer on the WAP server (unless I have completely missed this)?
Thanks again :-)

Ad hoc Risk Analysis report is returning incorrect Risk Level for some Risks

For example: Risk F024 Open closed periods and inappropriately post currency or tax entries is set as High. When the Ad hoc report is run, the risk F024 will show on a user with a level of Medium. We have generated our ruleset and have followed the normal procedures used to implement the support pack. Any ideas what is causing this issue? I have exhausted my knowledge and search attempts.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi Kevin
Many thanks for your post, we did run a full BRA but no luck unfortunately. Some Risks still reporting as Medium when they should be Critical or High. Oddly it is reporting correctly against some risks just not for all!

Query using system parameter LEVEL returns incorrect huge number of records

We migrate our database from Oracle *9.2.0.6* to *11.2.0.1*
The query below throws "ORA-01788: CONNECT BY clause required in this query block".
select * from (
+select a.BOARD_ID, code, description, is_displayable, order_seq, board_parent_id, short_description, IS_SUB_BOARD_DISPLAYABLE, LEVEL child_level, sp_board.get_parent_id(a.board_id) top_parent_id, is_top_selected isTopSelected+
from boards a, ALERT_MESSAGE_BOARD_TARGETS b
where a.board_id = b.board_id and is_displayable = 'Y' and alert_message_id = 5202) temp
start with board_parent_id = 0
connect by prior board_id = board_parent_id
ORDER SIBLINGS BY order_seq;
Based from online resources we modified "*_allow_level_without_connect_by*" by executing the statement.
alter system set "_allow_level_without_connect_by"=true scope=spfile;
After performing the above, ORA-01788 is resolved.
The new issue is that the same query above returns *9,015,853 records in 11g* but in *9i it returns 64 records*. 9i returns the correct number of records. And the cause for 11g returning greater number of records is due to system parameter LEVEL used in the query.
Why 11g is returning an incorrect huge number of records?
Any assistance to address this is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The problem lies in th query.
Oracle LEVEL should not be used inside a subquery. After LEVEL is moved in the main query, the number of returned records is the same as in 9i.

About ~20 hours later, this ended up solving itself. We can send email using the '.icloud' email from both the iPad and iPhone. Advise would be 'wait' before you start seeking alteranatives like yahoo, hotmail, etc. This definitely is a convenient way to keep all your 'cloud' information in a centralized place, including the common email...

I have Lightroom 6 (not CC) on a Windows machine. I'm prompted to log into Creative Cloud when I restart my computer (I don't have, use, or pay for Creative Cloud), and then when I launch Lightroom, it tells me to use the application I have to log into my Adobe account...AGAIN! And then to further add insult to injury, I'm prompted to enter in the license number of my product. I've gone through this process a dozen times now...SCREAM!!!

Paulou12 what type of a Creative Cloud Membership do you have? You can find details on how to update Lightroom using the Creative Cloud Desktop application at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html.
Finally if you are in a managed environment then please work with your I.T. department to apply the update.
