Need To Create a Calculation

Hi
I am developing a discoverer report, I'm working with Oracle Discoverer 3.1 - User Edition, Version 3.1.26.01 (dce.dll 3.1.83) Oracle End User Layer 3.1.13.0.0.0
I got a column (Open Time) with date and time "DD-Mon-YY HH:MI AM", and I need to create a New Column (Closed Time) as a calculation. The first Closed Time is one minute less than the second Open Time.
And continue with the same procedure, Second Closed Time is one minute less than the third Open Time.
The Queue Job Num. "90" is when the job is completed.
Here is an example of the table:
Id Num ----     Country ----- Tel Num ---------- Open Time ---------------- Closed Time ---------- Queue Job Num ---- Time In Queue Job
----1 ------------ PR ------ 7870502397 ---- 10/22/20074:56 PM ------------ ???? ------------------------- 56 ----------- (Open Time) - (Closed Time)
----1 ------------ PR ------ 7870502397 ---- 10/23/2007 8:50 AM ----------- ???? ------------------------- 26 ----------- (Open Time) - (Closed Time)
----1 ------------ PR ------     7870502397 ---- 10/24/2007 10:40 AM --------- ???? --------------------------76 ------------ (Open Time) - (Closed Time)
----1------------- PR ------     7870502397 ---- 10/26/2007 2:24 PM ----------- ???? ------------------------- 46 ----------- (Open Time) - (Closed Time)
----1 ------------ PR ------     7870502397 ---- 10/26/2007 4:15 PM -----10/26/2007 4:15 PM ---------- 90
I tried make a calculation,but I failed..
Pls, help me out.

Thank you Nilesh, to try to help me.
I don't have access to the database. I'm working with Oracle Discoverer 3.1 - User Edition, Version 3.1.26.01 (dce.dll 3.1.83) Oracle End User Layer 3.1.13.0.0.0. Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Production.
The only information that I have is the Open Time of each Queue Job Num. And I need to create a calculation to get the Closed Time of each Queue Job.
The Closed Time in the first row is one minute less than the open time of the second row.
Id Num ---------- Open Time ---------------- Closed Time ---------- Queue Job Num ---- Time In Queue Job
----1 -------- 10/22/20074:56 PM --------------- ???? ------------------------- 56 ----------- (Open Time) - (Closed Time)
----1 -------- 10/23/2007 8:50 AM -------------- ???? ------------------------- 26 ----------- (Open Time) - (Closed Time)
----1 -------- 10/24/2007 10:40 AM ------------ ???? --------------------------76 ------------ (Open Time) - (Closed Time)
----1--------- 10/26/2007 2:24 PM -------------- ???? ------------------------- 46 ----------- (Open Time) - (Closed Time)
----1 -------- 10/26/2007 4:15 PM ------10/26/2007 4:15 PM ------------ 90
Thanks anyway for your help.

I need help! Need to create a calculator.

Can someone tell me if it's possible to create a calculator on a website? I'm doing a website for a concrete company, and the owner wants a calculator on there for large scale jobs and I HAVE NO IDEA how to do it! Thanks.

It is possible to create a calculator with Flash, to just about any complexity you like. The key to alot of it is learning how to utilize input textfields and variables, and possibly the Math functions in your coding. If the client will have options to choose from, like a drop list of material choices, then you'll also need to become familiar with coding and extracting selected values from components.

Help needed in creating a calculated keyfigure/query exit

Hi Reporting Gurus
Please someone give me a solution for my issue.
I have two keyfigures
Plan Finish Date(PFD)
Actual Finish Date(AFD)
I have one calculated keyfigure
Delivery Status = (AFD<=PFD) . When this condition is met it returns 1 else 0.
But Delivery Status = (AFD<=PFD) returns 1 if AFD and PFD both exists and if the condition is met and also works (returns 1) for the scenarios mentioned below.
1.     if AFD is blank and PFD is filled
2.     if AFD and PFD both is blank.
So I need a solution for my issue in such a way that
Delivery Status = (AFD<=PFD) should return 1 only if AFD and PFD both exists and only if AFD<=PFD.
For rest of all the scenarios my calculated keyfigure should return 0 , i.e.,
1.if AFD is blank and PFD is filled
2.if AFD and PFD both is blank.
3.if AFD is filled and PFD is blank.
How to achieve this?
Should I have to write a customer exit variable and incorporate ABAP codes or should I have to write VB macros or can we have a calculated keyfigure with a necessary logic or is there any other way to achieve it.
Please help me out.
Thanks in Advance,
Have a nice day
Regards
Sam

You can create a new calculated key figure which calculates the result which looks as follows...
= ((AFD<>0) AND (PFD<>0) AND (AFD<=PFD)) * 1 + 0
    Please check the syntax when done. You can refer to the below link for more info abt using IF ELSE operations in calculated keyfigures. Please let me know if you come across any issues.

Need help with a calculated column - is there any way to reference a value in the current row?

Hey guys,
I'm a bit of a DAX newbie, and I'm running into a block. I'm creating a Power View report about IT tickets. We are going to be creating a cube to automate the data soon, I'm currently working with a flat Excel Data Table of data to demonstrate the Power
View reporting capabilities to the team. I need the default display to show the top 4-5 items basked on the Ticket Count. The three applicable columns I'm using are the TicketID, the ContactReason, and the AssetCategory - all three are
text. One slide will show the top five Contact Reasons by Ticket Count, and the other will show the top five Categories by Ticket Count. The users will see this default view, but will be able to change it to see differently ranked items or can clear the
ranking slicer altogether.
What I've accomplished so far is to create the Calculated Field [Ticket Count] = COUNTA(Table1[TicketID])
And 2 other calculated fields:
[Contact Rank] = RANKX(ALL(Table1[ContactReason]),[Ticket Count],,,DENSE)
[Asset Rank] = RANKX(ALL(Table1[AssetCategory]),[Ticket Count],,,DENSE)
If I were creating a Pivot Table, this would be great. These fields calculate everything the right way. The problem is, I need to have a Rank slicer on each slide and the calculation by itself contains no data - with no data, there's nothing to slice. I
realized I need to actually have columns of data so I can create a slicer. I need each row of the table to show the same [Contact Rank] for every instance of a particular ContactReason (and the same for the [Asset Rank] and AssetCategory).
The RANKX formulas pasted into the Calculated Column section only show a value of 1 - with no Pivot table summarizing the fields, it's counting each row's ticket once, giving every line the tied Rank of #1.
I've solved the problem in Excel by creating 2 Pivot Tables on a separate sheet that have the data field and the calculated field for ContactRason and AssetCategory. Then on my Excel Data Table, I've added two columns that do a VLOOKUP and pull over a the
Calculated Rank from each Pivot Table that match the ContactReason and AssetCategory fields. This works on the flat Excel Data Table now, but will not be a solutions when we start pulling the data from the cube (and there is no flat table).
What I think I need is an Expression for the RANKX formula that can give me, for each row, the count of all of the times a ContactReason shows up in an entire column. There's only about 100,000 lines of data and each ContactReason or AssetCategory
may show up several thousand times. But if I can get the expression to return that count, then the RANKX formula should work in the Column. If it wasn't a DAX formula, I'd use a COUNTIF and say 'Count the entire ContactReason column anytime it's equal to the
ContactReason on THIS row', but in DAX I don't know how to reference a single value in a row. I've tried the CALCULATE() formula, but it seems like the filter needs a specific value, and doesn't work on a dynamic "cell" value.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! (I hope it all makes sense!)

If I've understood you correctly then the ALLEXCEPT function may be what you're after and it could be applied in a similar way to the following...
=
RANKX(
ALL(Table1),
CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS(table1),
ALLEXCEPT(Table1, Table1[ContactReason])
DENSE
If this has missed the mark, would it be possible to clarify the requirement further?

Need Urgent Help on Calculation items issue In Discoverer Plus

Dear Discoverer Experts,
I would need help on the below scenario:
A
147644.08
147644.08
Maximum: 147,644.08
B
142494.65
5149.43
Sum: 147,644.08
C
5149.43
142494.65
0
Here A, B, C are columns and C column is Calculated Item(A-B) and Maximum and Sum are Totals items, everything working fine.
The intent is that I would need the difference between totals items I mean Maximum and Sum , i.e Maximum-Sum (147,644.08 - 147,644.08) =0(in this case), but I am not able to get it, can anyone help me on this that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
skat

Thanks Tamir for your response, i am getting ZERO
But when i create new calculation item for examle TEST with calculation MAX(A) over () - SUM(B) over ()
then i am getting new column next to C with name TEST and with two rows of data with 0 (Zero)
like this
TEST
0.00
0.00
why am getting two rows of data, and that too can't we get this ZERO under C column at the same Row as MAX and SUM
(Or)
if not possible then after adding coumn TEST next to C column can we get ZERO in the row as MAX and SUM
either way would be fine, can any one hlep on this issue.
Thank you
skat

Need to create filter in reports

hi ,
i need to create a filter on my report .
the filter for field contract end date.
for exammple - the object which i need to create the filters (HDREN_DT -
Remove records with value < System Date
) this is the logic so what i need to do i want to go for customer exit or what
need to create 2 CKF
Earliest Doc Header End Date Calculated KF Min (HDREN_DT)
Oldest Doc Header End Date Calcualted KF Max (HDREN_DT)
Can anyone give some idea how can i go with this one.
i choosen a formula variable with replacement path for the both the fields. whether this option is right or wrong.
please help me in this one
Regards ,
vijju

Hi,
You have correctly identified.
To achieve the filter on HDREN_DT, you can declare an exit variable & write the code behind. But here I'd suggest implementing logic like Date greater than or equal to System date (instead of removing dates less than System date as it will improve the querying.
For the 2 CKFs, you can try the formula variable concept.

Help in creating MDX Calculated Member using attributes from multiple Dimension

Hi All,
First of all my knowledge on MDX is basic. In one of our projects, there is a requirement to create calculated member (similar to derived fields in SQL) which is more of a dimension attribute and not really a calculated member. Due to IP issues I cannot paste
the actual queries but I will provide an SQL Query equivalent to what I am trying to achieve:
Select P.Product, Case When ISNULL(FS.ArtistName,'') = '' Then P.ArtistName Else FS.ArtistName End Artist
From
dbo.FactMusicSales FS
Join dbo.dimProduct P
on P.DimProductKey = FS.DimProductKey
We are trying to replicate the logic for derving the "Artist" field using MDX script.
We are running into issues while trying to build an MDX expression using the above logic. The main issue being that the new field/member "Artist" would not be calculated unless its elements are selected (FS.ArtistName, P.ArtistName). Besides this
we are also unable to place this new member in a different folder other than a sub folder under the measures. Any pointers to solving this would be really helpful.
Thanks in Advance,
Venki

Hi Venki,
According to your description, you need to create calculated member (similar to derived fields in SQL) which is more of a dimension attribute and not really a calculated member, right?
In your scenario, you needn't to achieve this requirement by using MDX. You can use a named query on your data source view. A named query is a SQL expression represented as a table. In a named query, you can specify an SQL expression to select rows and columns
returned from one or more tables in one or more data sources. So in you scenario, you can use your query on the DSV, and then use the modified table to create a dimension.

Need some help on Calculated Key Figures

Hello All,
I created a query on a multiprovider and trying to add a field to an existing Structure on rows.
The new field is a combination of 5 differnt key figures.
Eg: (KF1KF2KF3KF4KF5) / KF6 * 100.
How can I add this formula field into the strucuture on rows. do i need to create a CKF ??
Thaks in Advacne.

Hello,
Yes you can create a calculated key figure if you are going to reuse the calculation. However, if you're going to use this only once, you can just create a local formula. Just right click on the structure and then select New formula to create a new formula or create a new calculated key figure on the left screen panel to create a calculated key figure.
Hope this helps,

Need to create a a line after each subtotal-Smartform

Hi I need to create a uline after each of the sub totals in my smartform.Like if theer are 7 items in the form and for each of the item there are 2-3 sub-items under it , I have calculated the sub totals for each of the item and to distingusih tjem separately i want to create a line after each of my sub totals for the items . How do i create the line after each of the items ?
Thanks
Aarav

Hi Aarav
Read this wiki.In the 8th step given there,GOTO the text element and give a ULINE there if needed.
I think since this example is of tabular display you might not need a ULINE there.

This defnitly will solve your problem.

It is within the table I believe (I'm not a DBA or a developer) since I created a BLOB column and then used the file browse feature to allow users to attach a resume to the table in order to be able to perform a search of the attached documents.
I'm just having a hard time pointing the link in the search results report to the document in the blob column.
The information on that page is great if you're trying to create a link to the document on the initial report.
But I created a query using Oracle Text to run a report that does a boolean search of the attached word documents in the table.
When it displays the search results, it doesn't create a link to the document and I can't figure out how to do it.
Here's a link the the instructions I used to create the initial search report with Oracle Text, mind you I only created the index and query, I didn't add in all the link data since they're using documents on websites and I'm using documents in a table.

If you can help me with this I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks again.

Help needed to create Quik Time VR movies, step by step

Hello,
thank you for your attenction.
I need to create Quick time vr movies, and I need to know the exact sequance of steeps to do it, and if the starting point I use is correct.
1) I shooted a sequence of photos with my digital camera (for example: www.stebianchi.com/quicktimevrhelp/still-photo.jpg).
2) Then, with photoshop (CS4) I choose: Automate/photomerge and I select all them to joint them in a bigger 360° panoramic one (www.stebianchi.com/quicktimevrhelp/pan.jpg). If, untill here, all is correct, the first question: in photoshop Photomerge layout option, do I have to choose one voice "auto, perspective, cylindrical, spherical, etc..." rather than anoter one of these?
3) from here, I really need your help.
First of all: the great doubt:
My photos can not cover a spherical panorama, they're only a "ring" around a center (and not a spherical texture). To cover all the surface (or almost all, ok...) of my ambient, do I have to use a wider lens on my camera or there is a different solution (for ex a vertical photomerge?).
4) Done this, I think I shuold buy a software like Cubic converter, to set and export the QTVR movie. Right?
Thanks a lot guys,
all the best!
Stefano

You can call your local apple store(find one on the home page of apple.com) and they will give you instructions how to convert DVD to iPod. That is what they told me, but from what I heard, you may need more than Quicktime Pro. Just call and ask them, because if you make a manual of how to do it, it could help me a lot.
(I'm looking for a good DVD converter, already know some, beside the internet download ones)

Need To Create a table in Sql Server and do some culculation into the table from Oracle and Sql

Hello All,
I'm moving a data from Oracle to Sql Server with ETL (80 tables with data) and i want to track the number of records that i moving on the daily basis , so i need to create a table in SQL Server, wilth 4 columns , Table name, OracleRowsCount, SqlRowCount,
and Diff(OracleRowsCount - SqlRowCount) that will tell me the each table how many rows i have in Oracle, how many rows i have in SQL after ETL load, and different between them, something like that:
Table Name OracleRowsCount   SqlRowCount  Diff
Customer                150                 150
0
Sales                      2000                1998
2
Devisions                 5                       5
0
(I can add alot of SQL Tasks and variables per each table but it not seems logicly to do that, i tryid to find a way to deal with that in vb but i didn't find)
What the simplest way to do it ?
Thank you
Best Regards
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
According to your description, what you want is an indicator to show whether all the rows are inserted to the destination table. To achieve your goal, you can add a Row Count Transformation following the OLE DB Destination, and redirect bad rows to the Row
Count Transformation. This way, we can get the count of the bad rows without redirecting these rows. Since the row count value is stored in a variable, we can create another string type variable to retrieve the row count value from the variable used by the
Row Count Transformation, and then use a Send Mail Task to send the row count value in an email message body. You can also insert the row count value to the SQL Server table through Execute SQL Task. Then, you can check whether bad rows were generated in the
package by querying this table.

Mike Yin

Yes, the email addresses need to be unique to each device. You may use the same Apple ID on each device, but the email address used by each device needs to be different.
