NUMBERS- variance difference- how to set a function

I am sooo close- I want to compare the percent difference between two columns- to compare the total in column B to total in column C-- to establisha  percent of difference be it less than or greater---help

What's missing from your description is which column holds the base amount for the calculation. I;ll assume the original amount is in B, the changes amount is in C, and you want to know the percentage change that has occured from B.
In column D, enter =(C-B)/B
Format the result as a percent, with the number of places after the decimal that you require.
Note: The result in row 7 looks odd, but is correct to the nearest tenth of a percent.

  • How to set Oracle function as a PreparedStatement parameter?

    Hi all,
    I was wondering if it is possible to use Oracle function as a PreparedStatement parameter? For example:
    PreparedStatement pstmt = new PreparedStatement("update table set date=? where ...");
    pstmt.set???(1, sysdate);I can put the function in the sql directly of course, but the parameter is depending on some condition. Any idea is greatly appreciated.
    Joey

    First, sysdate isn't a function, it's really a pseudo-value.
    Second, it doesn't exist on the Java side, therefore it can't be bound via a set statement.
    The correct and standard way is to put it in the SQL; if the use of sysdate is conditional, you can:
    1) embed the conditionality in the SQL, e.g.:
    PreparedStatement pstmt = new PreparedStatement("update table set date= decode( ?, 0, ?, 1, sysdate, sysdate) where ...");2) for more complex conditionality, define a custom function and embed that in your SQL
    3) do it on the Java side and use more than one preparedstatement

  • How to set video function like a default function when slip "camera" at lock screen ?

    Hi all.
    At lock ccreen:
    - We need to take the picture we turn on screen - slip "camera fuction" at the right bottom and take a shoot.
    - We need to record a video we turn on the screen - slip "camera fuction" at the right bottom and horizontal sliding to "video" function and take a record.
    With "video" fuction, after you record the video, you turn off the screen in one or tow minute, you need to record another video, you turn on the screen and slip camera function, but now it is not in "video function, it come back to "picture" function.
    It is very inconvenient for who need record some video.
    Now what i need:
    How to i can to setup up "video" fuction is a default function ?

    Nevermind I found why this was occuring. Under the same menu, there's an option called "Auto Aspect Ratio" I simply changed it to "off" and it solved the problem.
    Thank you.

  • How to set summable field in ALV

    Dear ABAPers,
    I find report that use ALV to show the output. Using my id the field with number type is summable (using ALV sum functionality) but using other id, it can't. Does anyone know how to set this functionality? I read several posting that this one is achieveable by setting up t_field_cat-do_sum = 'X'. But with this set up, it shouldn't have difference when I run by my id and other. I suppose there is something in ALV setting that need to be configured. Please let me know if there are any idea about this issue.
    Thanks a lot.
    Regards
    Hadi

    Hi Karthik,
    We don't set user specific layout. I am afraid there is some authorization code set in the program and it determine ALV activities on different user. Are there possibility of it in ALV?
    However thanks alot for your suggestion.
    Regards

  • How to get the "last changed by" for a set of function modules?

    How to get the "last changed by" for a set of function modules?
    is there any table to get it??

    See [this|Re: Date of creation of function module] I posted earlier.
    >TFDIR will give you the name of the function group program and the include number.
    >E.g. SAPLZFUNCGROUP Include 01.
    >From this you can construct the include name: LZFUNCGROUPU01.
    >You can look this up in TRDIR to find the creation date (CDAT) of the function module.
    In your case, you need unam and udat.

    Thanks,

    No, you can use APEX_PLSQL_JOB.
    Example:
    DECLARE
    l_sql VARCHAR2(4000);
    l_job NUMBER;
    BEGIN
    l_sql := 'BEGIN MY_PACKAGE.MY_PROCESS; END;';
    l_job := APEX_PLSQL_JOB.SUBMIT_PROCESS(
    p_sql => l_sql,

  • Any ideas of how to set up a meal list in Numbers?

    Hey.
    I just got Numbers and I love it. This app is great.
    Does anyone have an idea of how to set up a meal list for a family in Numbers? I used to use TextEdit to type the meals in, separated with hard returns. It was one long list. I'd like to use someething a little more robust.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Ashka.
    Thanks, that's giving me some ideas. Sometimes I overcomplicate my thought process, only to streamline it once I've gotten the big picture. Your idea looks very close to what I can use.
    In the meantime, I made two weeks worth of breakfast, lunch, and dinner ideas. That helped me tremendously. I made a grocery list, based loosely off of the menu template, as Johnny mentioned above. It has an ingredient column (that lists all of the things that I would purchase), Have it column (with checkboxes. I'm sure that I'll be able to sort by that, later), Quantity (how many or much I'll need), How sold (pound, box, can, pieces...), Price, Estimate, and Store (you like the check boxes, I LOVE the selection menus! I set the cells in this column to have a list of the stores that I shop from. When I get to a particular item I choose the store from the selection menu. I love it!).
    Thanks for the help!

  • How to set the AS2 fileName for outbound Functional Ack 997 auto generated by Oracle B2B

    Hi Friends,
    How to set the AS2 fileName for outbound Functional Ack 997 auto generated by Oracle B2B.
    External Trading Partner is sending the EDI 856 via AS2 URL to our Oracle B2B Server.
    In the inbound 856 agreement, we have checked the option of Funtional Ack and also Functiona Ack handled by B2B is yes.
    We have the outbound agreement which is sending that Functional ack 997 (auto generated by oracle b2b) and we have specified the Outbound AS2 channel of the Partner.
    997 doc is being sent to external partner using AS2 channel, but the filename is generating as '40101'.
    Please can you let me know how to set the AS2 fileName for outbound Functional Ack 997 auto generated by Oracle B2B.
    Appreciate your valuable answers!!
    Thanks,
    Amirineni

    Amirineni,
    AFAIK, there is no option to set the file name when the 997 is generated automatically by B2B.
    Alternatively, if this is a must requirement, you can generate the FA from backend and  send to B2B with MSG_TYPE =9. In this case, you can set the header with filename (How to set the actionname property in B2B 11g)

  • How to set "Configuration Variant" for a sales order item using function

    Is their any idea or sample code?

    Hi Zhijun zhang,

    A variant is simply an SAP report where the parameters for running the report have been set by the user and then saved with unique name. This allows future retrieval and execution of the report faster without reentering the parameters. As a convention the variant name should start with with the digits 50 so searchs for LHU variants is easier and quicker.
    The first link will guide you by screen shot wise.

  • How to set page margins in Numbers 3

    I just migrated from MS Excel after decades of use. I can't find out how to set page margins using the new Numbers 3 version. I believe I've exhausted all reference materials and the most relevant was an method in Numbers 8 & 9... both of which have a different top menu selection.  The answer is probably right in front of me and simple as it sometimes happens when learning new software...

    Hi caforestfire,
    There is no direct equivalent to page margins in Numbers 3.0. It's more oriented toward sharing on the web and on iPad screens than toward traditional printing.
    However, there are ways to achieve the effect of margins.  The idea is to first position your content (tables, charts, etc) on the canvas of a sheet, using rulers and guides if you want (you can drag the rulers onto the canvas to help in placement):
    Then you File>Print and in Print Preview fiddle with the slider until you get the white space you want around your content:
    Then click Print.
    For many purposes it works quite well. It's just a different approach from what we're used to in Excel, and the old Numbers 2.3.
