Need help on Date Parameters for BIP Report

Hello,
I need to add a date parameter in my BIP report. I have used a date parameter on a BIP report that has a for-each grouping, but my BIP report RTF template that was converted from Actuate do not have a for-each grouping and I was getting an error when I validate the RTF template. Can someone please help?
Thank you

can u send me template and xml . i will try at my side. email: [email protected]
Some times converted templates won't work straight away. you still need to do manual adjustments to make it work based one the requirement u have.

Need help showing multiple parameters in a report header

Post Author: Annette
CA Forum: Formula
hi-- i am new to this and i have created a report where the person picks one or more items (they are different hospital suites) and i need for them to print on the report header all of the selections that they chose. right now it only prints the name of the first one they choose..
any help would be good..
i do know it's a string value....
thank-you for anything you can help me with....
basically if 1 is picked then it needs to state that name, if 2 or more are picked id like it to say Name, name, name, etx...

CA Forum: Formula
the actual parameter is a number, but what im trying to populate on the heading is the name of the number..
for example... when you choose the resource unit of 31 when you refresh i want it to show the name of it which is ORA Surgery.... but if they choose 31 & 53 then id like it to show ORA Surgery, ORD Surgery.... right now it just pulls the first name choosen.. does that make sense..
so the parameter is a number, but the name(the one i want populated) is a string
and oh gosh,, thanks for your quick responses..

Need help with Data Model for Private Messaging

Sad to say, but it looks like I just really screwed up the design of my Private Messaging (PM) module... *sigh*
What looked good on paper doesn't seem to be practical in application.
I am hoping some of you Oracle gurus can help me come up with a better design!!
Here is my current design...
member -||-----0<- private_msg_recipient ->0------||- private_msg
MEMBER table
- id
- email
- username
- first_name
PRIVATE_MSG_RECIPIENT table
- id
- member_id_to
- message_id
- flag
- created_on
- updated_on
- read_on
- deleted_on
- purged_on
PRIVATE_MSG table
- id
- member_id_from
- subject
- body
- flag
- sent_on
- updated_on
- sender_deleted_on
- sender_purged_on
***Short explanation of how the application currently works...
- Sender creates a PM and sends it to a Recipient.
- The PM appears in the Sender's "Sent" folder in my website
- The PM also appears in the Recipient's "Incoming" folder.
- If the Recipient deletes the PM, I set "deleted_on" and my code moves the PM from Recipient's "Inbox" to the "Trash" folder. (Record doesn't actually move!)
- If the Recipient "permanently deletes" the PM from his/her "Trash", I set "purged_on" and my code removes the PM from the Recipient's Message Center. (Record still in database!)
- If the Sender deletes the PM, I set "sender_deleted_on" and my code moves the PM from the Sender's "Sent" folder to the "Trash" folder. (Record doesn't actually move!)
- If the Recipient "permanently deletes" the PM from his/her "Trash", I set "sender_purged_on" and my code removes the PM from the Sender's Message Center. (Record still in database!)
Here are my problems...
1.) I can't store PM's forever.
2.) Because of my design, the Sender really owns the PM, and if I add code to REMOVE the PM from the database once it has a "sender_purged_on" value, then that would in essence remove the PM from the Recipient's Inbox as well!!
In order to remove a PM from the database, I would have to make sure that *both* the Recipient has "purged_on" value and the Sender has a "sender_purged_on" value. (Lot's of Application Logic for something which should be simple?!)
I am wondering if I need to change my Data Model to something that allows my autonomy when it comes to the Sender and/or the Recipient deleting the PM for good...
One the other hand, I believe I did a good job or normalizing the data. And my current Data Model is the most efficient when it comes to saving storage space and not having dups.
Maybe I do indeed just need need to write application logic - or a cron job - which checks to make sure that *both* the Sender an Recipient have deleted the PM before it actually flushes it out of my database to free up space?!
Of course, if one party sits on their PM's forever, then I can never clear things out of my database to free up space...
What should I do??
Some expert advice would be welcome!!
Sincerely,
Debbie

rp0428,
I think I am starting to see my evil ways and where I went wrong...
> Unfortunately his design is just as denormalized as yours
I see that now. My bad!!
> the last two columns have NOTHING to do with the message itself so do NOT belong in a normalized table.
> And his design:
>
> Same comment - those last two columns also have NOTHING to do with the message itself.
Right.
> The message table should just have columns directly related to the message. It is a list of unique messages: no more, no less.
Right.
> Mark gave you hints to the proper normalized design using an INTERSECT table.
> that table might list: sender, recipient, sender_delete_flag, recipient_delete_flag.
> As mark suggested you could also have one or two DATEs related to when the delete flags were set. I would just make the columns DATE fields.
>
> Once both date columns have a value you can delete the message (or delete all messages older than 30+ days).
>
> When both flags are set you can delete the message itself that references the sender and the message sent.
Okay, how does this revised design look...
MEMBER --||-----0<-- PM_DISTRIBUTION -->0-------||-- PRIVATE_MSG
MEMBER table
- id
- email
- username
- first_name
and so on...
PM_DISTRIBUTION table (Maybe you can think of a better name??)
- id
- private_msg_id
- sender_id
- recipient_id
- sender_flag
- sender_deleted_on
- sender_purged_on
- recipient_flag
- recipient_read_on
- recipient_deleted_on
- recipient_purged_on
PRIVATE_MSG
- id
- subject
- body
- sent_on
Is that what you were describing to me?
Quickly reflecting on this new design...
1.) It should now be in 3rd Normal Form, right?
2.) It should allow the Sender and Recipient to freely and independently "delete" or "purge" a PM with no impact on the other party, right?
Here are a few Potential Issues that I see, though...
a.) What is to stop there from being TWO SENDERS of a PM?
In retrospect, that is why I originally stuck "member_id_from" in the PRIVATE_MSG table!! The logic being, that a PM only ever has *one* Sender.
I guess I would have to add either Application Logic, or Database Logic, or both to ensure that a given PM never has more than one Sender, right?
b.) If the design above is what you were hinting at, and if it is thus "correct", then is there any conflict with my Business Rule: "Any given User shall only be allowed 100 Messages between his/her Incoming, Sent and Trash folders."
Because the Sender is no longer "tightly bound" to the PRIVATE_MSG, in my scenario above...
Debbie could send 100 PM's, hit her quota, then turn around and delete and purge all 100 Sent PM's and that should in no way impact the 100 PM's sitting in other Users' Inboxes, right??
I think this works like I want...
Sincerely,
Debbie

Need help coneverting data provider for inline fx:Component renderer for a datagrid

I want to use an existing inline item renderer and point the hard coded data provider to an arraycollection, which comes from a database.
At firt glance this looks easy, just change
<fx:Declarations>
<fx:Component id="inlineEditor">
 <mx:ComboBox >
 <mx:dataProvider>
 <fx:String></fx:String>
 <fx:String>AIG</fx:String>
 <fx:String>BHN</fx:String>
 <fx:String>FH</fx:String>
 <fx:String>LM</fx:String>
 <fx:String>SD</fx:String>
 </mx:dataProvider>
 </mx:ComboBox>
</fx:Component>
</fx:Declarations>
TO
<fx:Declarations>
<fx:Component id="inlineEditor">
 <mx:ComboBox
 dataProvider="{outerDocument.wripAttachTypeAc}"
 labelField="WRIP_ATTACHED_FILE_TYPE_DESC">
 </mx:ComboBox>
</fx:Component>
</fx:Declarations>
BUT that does not work the data grid produces the object.object value as theres no association to the labelField . Can anyone see what I am doing wrong. The datagrid entry is
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="Permit File"
 width="150"
 editorDataField="selectedItem"
 itemEditor="{inlineEditor}"/>

Thanks Harui, but it doesn't help. If the border is set it will help, but the very big problem is the empty rows that appear at the end of the datagrid... I can't find a way of measuring correctly the height of the itemRenderers!
I'll update this thread if I manage to do it.

Use XML as data input for Crystal Report for Eclipse

Hi,
I am completely new to crystal report and please kindly forgive me if I ask some stupid questions.
Actually, I have searched the forum for the topic and found some related threads, but I still want to
have some responses from crystal report experts on this issue.
Our developer tool is IBM RAD 7.0 and it has crystal reports tools installed in it. I want to use
crystal report to solve one of our business solutions. I have the following questions about the
feasbility of this solution:
(1). I need to specify data at runtime during report generation. I think using fixed data source
     (for example, SQL query or Stored Procedure) may not fit our needs. I think if crystal report
     can accept XML as input to generate reports at runtime, then it will be perfect. Can CR
     use XML as data source as input?
(2). Actually, one of our business requirements is to generate a letter. Can CR do a report
      layout such that a letter format can be achieved? If yes, would you let me know the
      report layout name?
(3). We need to export the report into PDF format, I know CR can do PDF output. But can
      CR be controlled to export this into bytes stream? Or the PDF must be saved into a
      physical file?
(4) If I need to learn more about CR, which book will you recommend?
Thanks in advance for your advice,
Raymond

Thanks for the help Ted
Works like a charm now.
Or atleast my very very simple XML report works.
Now I just need to play around and see what I can do and what I cant.
I just want to make sure I understand how this works.
1) I start of with a XML file (or URL or other data source as explained in your BLOG)
2) I then have to create blank report which will have its data source set to my XML file.
    This report (rpt file) will always have its data source set to the original XML location
Can this be dynamically changed, or does a new rpt file need to be created each time
    (or atleast I will have to re-run "CreateXMLInlineSchemaReport" from your BLOG)
3) I can now use this rpt file as I would any other rpt file but its data source will be the original XML file
   - If I update or change the XML file, the report will dynamically reflect these changes.
4) To change the data source, I need to recreate a new rpt file as per point 2. Which will now be blank.
5) Filtering.... if I want to filter the XML data do I use normal parameters. If I want to filter the data before
    I pull it do I need to change anything. In otherwords if I have a XML file with 1000 records, but I only want say
5 of them, how do I only pull those 5 without first pulling the whole 1000 records. Hope that makes sense.
As I said I am very new to this so some things still fly over my head, but I do play around abit so hopefully
will find what I am looking for.
Cheers
Darren
PS any other links to info on creating and running reports of XML data sources would be greatly appriciated

Need a bapi or table for GL Report

Hi experts,
I need a bapi or table for generating report period balance for GL accounts. i found one bapi BAPI_GL_GETGLACCPERIODBALANCES which is closer to my requirement. But i want to get the balances for cost center and particular material. As Cost center and product ranges are in my selection fields.
Can anyone tell me table or BAPI?

SAP standard infoset query provides a report STDCOST for this.
May be this will suit your requirement. It will give material wise costing.
hope this helps.
reward if helpful.

Need Help with Dates

I am printing a calendar and certain events will be helds on certain dates.
One can edit the event if it has not passed the date. Events in the past can be viewed but not edited.
When I query the database the date must be formatted dd-MMM-yy
I am able to get today's date by doing this:
java.util.Date today = new java.util.Date();
String formatString = "dd-MMM-yy";
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(formatString);
String today_str = sdf.format(today);
My code for printing the calendar: I left out some of the table formatting in the JSP page.
GregorianCalendar d = new GregorianCalendar();
int today = d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
int month = d.get(Calendar.MONTH);
d.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH,1);
int weekday = d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
for(int i = Calendar.SUNDAY; i < weekday; i++)
out.print("<td> </td>");
do {
int day = d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
out.print("<td>" + day + "</td>");
String formatString = "dd-MMM-yy";
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(formatString);
//if(event exists on this day
// Get results
// print link for viewing
// if (after today) print link for edit
if(weekday == Calendar.SATURDAY)
out.println("</tr><tr valign=top>");
d.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH,1);
weekday = d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
} while(d.get(Calendar.MONTH) == month);
if(weekday != Calendar.SUNDAY)
System.out.println();
The part I need help on is this:
//if(event exists on this day
// Get results
// print link for viewing
// if (after today) print link for edit
I'm looping through each day of the month to print the days. I have the month, day, year as integers. How can I create a date object out of that and compare it to today's date to test if it's before or after today???
All the function in the Date class that I think would do this have been deprecated.

Need Help with Dates
Here is some information about dates:
There are many edible palm fruits, and one of the most widespread and favored of these is the data (Phoenix dactylifera). Dates were cultivated in ancient land from Mesopotamia to prehistoric Egypt, possibly as early as 6000 B.C. Then--as now--dates were a staple for the natives of those dry regions. Much later, Arabs spread dates around northern Africa, and dates were introduced into California by the Spaniards in 1765, around Mission San Ignacio.
The date prefers dry, hot climates, because date fruits are injured at temperatures of 20 degrees F, and the damp climate of the California coast was not favorable for fruit production. In the mid-1800s, the date industry developed in California's hot interior valleys and in Arizona. Now the date industry in the United States is localized mostly in the Coachella Valley, where the sandy soils permit the plants to be deeply irrigated. Today the new varieties, mostly introduced in this century, produce about 40 million pounds of dates per annum, or over 60% of the dates consumed in this country. The rest are imported mainly from Persia. According to one survey, about one million people are engaged entirely in date palm cultivation worldwide.
Hope that helps.

CRM 7.0 - Enhancement of Data Sources for interactive Reporting

Hallo All,
I would like to know whether anybody has positive experience with the enhancement of CRM Data Sources for interactive Reporting. I read that the enhancement of Customer fields should be possible (Those Data Sources below the Hierarchy node /CRMBW/ROOT).
I have seen that the extract structure can be enhanced via RSA6 (as for other data sources).
Questions:
1. Which USEREXIT / BADI has to be used to fill the added fields?
2. Does it work?
Best regards

Hi!
Those DS are not meant to be enhanced manually but only by one of the following two ways:
1. Adding custom fields with the Application Enhancement Tool (AET) in the CRM UI.
2. Adding SAP fields with the Interactive Reporting Enhancement Workbench (IREW).
The AET is available since CRM 7.0. Please find more details in the SAP Help Portal:

Help on the parameters for function ENQUEUE_E_TABLE

Hi,
Does anyone has detailed help on the parameters for the function ENQUEUE_E_TABLE?
For example, what does the parameter _SCOPE? and how many keys can I specify in VARYKEY?
Thanks

Hi,
SCOPE is for - Control lock behavior when calling the update task.
ENQMODE - Lock mode
VARYKEY - Lock key for tables
TABNAME - Table Name
COLLECT - Flag whether locks should only be collected first
I think VARKEY Accept one value only.

Need help in creating prompt for Month To Date Report.

Hi All I need to create a Month To Date Report using month(Start date & End date) as prompts, By default it has to run on the previous month data or if user selects his own range of dates then it has to bring the data for that range of dates ,one more thing is i am not showing the month and date columns on the report.Can any one help me how to create prompt for this in DeskI XIR2

Could you clarify some things? You are saying you are trying to transform the xml output of a webservice with an xsd, but an xsd is a schema that describes the allowed format of a xml file. If you want to transform xml from one format to an other (from one xsd to an other) you have to use a xsl file. You can make and test this with JDeveloper. Are you calling the webservice from esb or bpel?
Kind Regards,
Andre

Dashboard prompts for passing parameters to BIP reports

We have BIP reports that we want to display on a dashboard.
These reports are driven by parameters, which we need to display on the dashboard.
From what I understand from the documentation, Dashboard prompts can be used for that with the presentation variable having the same name as the BIP variable.
however, i am not able to get this to work.
Our reports are not using any subject area and are BIP reports based on SQL query data sets.
Our parameter is also based on a SQL query.
Has anyone done this before? Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
