Multiple Values for Parameter

I have to create a report that allows the users to choose more than one value on the Parameter. For example, the user may choose 1 and 2, or 1,2,3 or 4,5,6,7 or all.
I can't create lexical parameters because the list of values is 300 rows plus it is dynamically changing. Is this a possibility in Report 6i.
I have search on this forum and can't find any helpful solution. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

In case it is such a long list of values, that is also dinamically changing, consider using a table, eventually a global temporary table to store the parameter values in.
That temporary table (or normal table) should be populated before calling the report or in the afterpform trigger - depends how you generate those values.
Then, in your where clause you should have
... and field1 in (select column1 from temp_table)

Any way to pass Multiple Values for a single Label in the Parameter?

I have a Report that Contains 2 Parameters, @Customer & @Area. When trying to set up the Available Values for @Area, I'm having issues using multiple values for one Label, i.e. = "4006" Or "4610"
One of the Filters in the Report is an Operation number, which is the [OPERATION] field, which is setup as a filter on the Tablix referencing the @Area parameter.
PROBLEM: I cannot retrieve any data when trying to use the ‘Or’ Operator here. If I simply put “4006” or “4610” I retrieve data, but when trying to combine it returns no data.
Example, I need to allow a user to select ‘Chassis Incoming’, which would include data from Operations 4006 & 4610.
QUESTION:
Any way to pass Multiple Values for a single Label in the Parameter?
I realize the typical solution may be to use ‘Multi-Value’ selection, but in this case we want the User to select the Area and the multiple values for Filtering will be automatically determined for them. Otherwise, they are subject to not getting
it correct.
I have tried several different ways, such as =”4006” Or “4610”, =(“4006”, “4610”), = In(“4006”, “4610”), etc….
Note: We are using Report Builder 3.0

Based on my experience, there's no way to 'intercept' the query that gets passed back to SQL Server, so a Split wouldn't work.
Try creating either a function or stored procedure using the code below (compliments to
http://www.dotnetspider.com/resources/4680-Parse-comma-separated-string-SQL.aspx) to parse the string:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.Parse(@Array VARCHAR(1000), @Separator VARCHAR(10))
RETURNS @ResultTable TABLE (ParseValue VARCHAR(100))AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @SeparatorPosition INT
DECLARE @ArrayValue VARCHAR(1000)
SET @Array = @Array + @Separator
WHILE PATINDEX('%' + @Separator + '%' , @Array) <> 0
BEGIN
SELECT @SeparatorPosition = PATINDEX('%' + @Separator + '%', @Array)
SELECT @ArrayValue = LEFT(@Array, @SeparatorPosition - 1)
INSERT @ResultTable VALUES (CAST(@ArrayValue AS VARCHAR))
SELECT @Array = STUFF(@Array, 1, @SeparatorPosition, '')
END
RETURN
END
Once created you can do things like this:
SELECT * FROM Parse('John,Bill,David,Thomas', ',')
SELECT * FROM (SELECT 'John' AS TestName union select 'David' AS TestName) AS Main
WHERE TestName IN (SELECT ParseValue FROM dbo.Parse('John,Bill,David,Thomas', ','))
This is what your SQL query would probably look like:
SELECT OperationID, OperationName FROM dbo.Operations
WHERE AreaID IN (SELECT ParseValue FROM dbo.Parse(@Area, ','))
You may need to fiddle around with the Separator depending on whether SQL Server inserts a space between the comma and next value.

How to passing multiple values for a parameter of discoverer(url parameters

Hi All,
I am trying to pass multiple values for a parameter of disco report. I am trying to include my url for discoverer viewer report. the values has the following
'jeff,mark'
'sfophiee,angela'
Thanks and Regards
Venkat

Hello Venkat,
I know there are some problems with 10.1.2.0.2, maybe if you haven't done yet you can try with 10.1.2.2, assuming this version should be working for multiple parameter values :
OracleAS Discoverer 10.1.2.2 is installed with the following patch :
Patch 4960210 PLACEHOLDER BUG FOR AS/DS 10G R2 PATCH SET 2 10.1.2.2
So, once installed you can try adding your parameter as param_<parameter_name>='sfophiee,angela'
Hope this helps, otherwise feel free to log a Service Request to Support.
Best Regards,
Gianluca

Create URL with multiple values for one parameter

Post Author: cbamberg
CA Forum: General
While I have no problems to create the URL to open a report with a single value for a parameter from my Java application, I don't know how to format multiple values for a parameter when I want to pass the "&prompt0=" value. The values I want to pass are numbers, not strings.
Anyone can help?

Hi gayatri,
you need to select both the product id and custname.put a count on the prodid column and write a condition of count>1 and apply it.

SQL Command code for multiple value string parameter

Hi,
I'm using crystal 2008 and there is a check box for multiple value SQL Command I need some help in writing the SQL Command code for oracle (or sql server) for a multiple value STRING parameter.
Thanks in advance,
Marilyn

I could be wrong here, but I do not believe you can pass a multiple valued parameter to an SQL Command data source. How I have gotten around this in the past is to put the "real" report into a subreport. In the main report, create a formula field (basic syntax):
formula = join({?parameter}, "|")
Then, use this to pass the selected values to the subreport's parameter (call it {?sr-parm}). The SQL Command in the subreport can then use that (MS SQL):
select *
from table
where charindex(table.field, '{?sr-parm}') > 0

Multiple values for the Parameter

1. Had any tried the selecting MULTIPLE values for the parameter in Oracle Discoverer Plus Releae 4.1 Version 4.1.37.00.0. If so can please let me know how to implement it.
2. In a Page-Detail Cross Tab workbook, I have to show the weighted average instead of the avg or sum. Any inputs please.
3. I have to compare two periods (TOP) of datapoints. Any inputs please.

If you wanted to eliminate the need for users to type in the parameter values, you could create a LOV on the desired column. This will produce a distinct list of all valid values where the user would simply select as the wish. Of course you still need to check the "let user enter multiple values" checkbox if you want them to select more than one.

ADF BC: calling SDO : Value for parameter 'findCriteria' cannot be null

We have created a service interface from an application module. That service interface contains views that have view criteria. We have included those criteria in our services.
From my consuming application, i added a data control from webservices by providing the WSDL of the service interface. So far so good...
When i drop the result of a function that is bound to the view criteria to my page, i have to enter four parameters:
fincCriteria of the Object type
areaCode of the String type, this is a parameter we added in the view criteria using a bind variable.
languageCode of the String type, also a custom parameter of the view criteria
findControl of the Object type
In my bindings i can provide the value of areaCode and languaeCode but i don't have a clue what to do with findCriteria and findControl. I left them empty and then i get followign message from the server:
<SOAPProvider><setParameters> Value for parameter 'findCriteria' cannot be null
<SOAPProvider><setParameters> Value for parameter 'findControl' cannot be null
<WebServiceConnectionMessages><debugExecuteFailure> Failed to execute a SAAJ interaction.

Found some documentation on how to use the service interface from business components and as it appears you can create entity objects based upon the wsdl from the service interface.
Does it mean that i can only use the service interface that way and that when i have for example a dot net application, it can not use that service interface?

Multiple values for single field

hi
In order to upload Purchase order details, how you handle multiple values for a single field?
Eg: Item field may contain no. of values for a record

Hi,
It is generally taken care using BDC's by Table Control, and if you are using BAPI's then there are tables for ITEMS.

Invalid value for parameter error when value is in list of allowed parameters

I have some documents with a lot of paragraph styles that have been organized into groups. I have a simple script that is meant to ungroup these styles and delete the now-empty groups.
Code:
#target indesign
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
if (myDoc.paragraphStyleGroups.length > 0)
myDoc.paragraphStyleGroups.everyItem().paragraphStyles.everyItem().move(LocationOptions.AT_END, myDoc);
myDoc.paragraphStyleGroups.everyItem().remove();
alert("Done")
The error I receive is (emphasis mine):
JavaScript Error!
Error Number: 30477
Error String: Invalid value for parameter 'reference' of method 'move'. Expected ParagraphStyle, ParagraphStyleGroup, CharacterStyle, CharacterStyleGroup, CellStyle, CellStyleGroup, TableStyle, TableStyleGroup, Document or Application, but received Document.
As you can see, my pickle is that my value is of an allowed type. This only happens in some documents, and there's nothing that obviously distinguishes those documents from the ones in which it works.
One thing I've noticed is that the error sometimes takes a while to appear (a minute or so), but none of the styles have been moved once I click OK. So, I don't know if it's specific to one style. I doubt it, only because other documents with the same style set work.
Can anyone shed any light on what this error could mean in this context? I definitely have an activeDocument, so what could cause a Document to not be a Document?
Any help much appreciated!

Hi,
It occurs when 2 or more styles have the same name, probably.

Got multiple values for non null local custom field

Hi,
I get the following error message while saving a MPP from Project Professional to MS Project Server:
Got multiple values for non null local custom field.
I checked the MPP and found that there are fields with same alias as Enterprise field names. However, these fields are at a Task level, whereas the Enterprise fields are at a Project Level.
I would like to know why this is happening and the resolution for this issue. I don't want to delete the local fields.
Any help in this regard will be appreciated.

Then try to find any inconsistencies in the project plans with the issues, like required values not entered. Also try to save the plan as XML format and save it back as an mpp file to see if it helps (be aware that any formatting will be lost).
Hope this helps,
