ORA-01476: divisor equal to zero

When I try to run this query I get error 'ORA-01476: divisor equal to zero'. How can I write the query so it understand that it not should use Sum(SalesQuantity)=0 And Sum(Net_Sales)=0 in the Case?
SELECT year_month, customer,
(Sum(Case When record_type NOT IN ('B', 'E') And NET_SALES <> '0' Then NET_SALES Else Null End)/
Sum(Case When record_type NOT IN ('R', 'P') And SALES_QUANTITY <> '0' Then SALES_QUANTITY Else Null End)) As Test
Where Period_date Between to_date('2007-01-01','yyyy-mm-dd') And to_date('2007-09-30','yyyy-mm-dd')
FROM tbltest
Group By year_month, customer

I generally use

ORA-01476: divisor is equal to zero Error in tabular form

Hello,
My tabular form will give me this error sometimes: Error in add row internal routine: ORA-01476: divisor is equal to zero. I don't understand what causes it. On the form I have a on load - before header process that will add 5 blank rows automatically, which was wizard generated. This error doesn't always happen, when I turn off this process and then turn it back on it works fine. Currently I have to set the condition to never, so I don't get the error. Is this a bug with Apex?
Also, when there is data available I have to click on the next arrow for the data to display.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Mary

Hello,
I have the same error message for ADD ROWS in tabular form. It is also happens when I try to open one empty record using On Load when page rendered. Have you found a fix for that ?
Thanks,

BI Report Error:ORA-01476: divisor is equal to zero

I have written the Query containing the Pl/SQL procedures and is working fine when executed ,but when I am using the same query for the BI Publisher report , in the Runtime the report is giving error *"ORA-01476: divisor is equal to zero"* .
Please provide me with the answers and help ,as it is most important for me to get it solved.

Hi,
Try this...
case when nvl(Y,0) = 0 then 0 else (X/Y) end
Replace your columns in place of X and Y in your query..
hope helps you....

Ora-01476 divisor is equal to zero

hi!
ROUND(SUM(VALOR_VDA) / SUM(DECODE(QTDE_VDA,0,1,QTDE_VDA)),2)
Oracle 10.2.0.1.0
Red Hat Enterprise 5

is this QTDE_VDA field numeric
The only issues here with the decode is see is if the total value of all the rows when summed is 0 - zero then you will have zero-divide error

Error in add row internal routine: ORA-01476: divisor is equal to zero

Hi,
I am using Tabular Form Report in my application. So, when the user enters the page for the first time, no fields appear (if he has previously not entered any values in the DB). So to avoid this I added a Data Manipulation process-> Add rows to tabular Form ->On load after footer, so that when the user logins whether he entered previous values or not, he can see some empty fields, but this is not working as expected.
Any ideas how to resolve this issue.

Hmm other people have had this errorm found this hope it helps,
Hi,
Have a look at: Re: Add Row in detail table when check box is checked on a master report table as this shows how you can use javascript to clone a row

The root error for this issue can be found here:
ORA-01476: divisor is equal to zero
You should debug your materialized view, it is dealing with divisors whose value is equal to zero, and your procedure isn't capable of handling this exception. Try to perform a manual refresh to verify this error is repeatable and look for division operations, then debug values.

How can i resolve divisor is equal to zero

hi,
i have the situation like i am calculating the column values. in that one field divided by other. but in that divisor field have zero. for that it's giving the error.
please help to do so...

divisor != 0to WHERE clause or use:
CASE divisor
WHEN 0 THEN whatever_result_you_want_for_zero_divisor
ELSE divident / divisor

Divisor is equal to zero......Help...plz

Hi all.
I tried to get a tablespace and fragmentation information with blow script.
But I got an error(ORA-1476 : divisor is equal to zero)
How can I fix the script properly ?
Could anybody help me to fix the script?
Thanks in advance.
select tablespace_name,sum(obj_cnt) object_count,sum(ini_ext) init_ext,sum(nex_ex

from (select tablespace_name,0 obj_cnt,0 ini_ext,0 nex_ext, 0 byte, sum(bytes) fb
yte, count(*) frags, max(bytes) largest
from dba_free_space
group by tablespace_name
union
select tablespace_name,0, 0, 0, sum(bytes), 0, 0, 0 from dba_data_files
group by tablespace_name
union
select tablespace_name, 0, initial_extent/1024 ini_ext, next_extent/1024 nex_ext,

select tablespace_name, count(*) obj_cnt, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
from dba_segments
group by tablespace_name)
group by tablespace_name

The various NVL and DECODE solutions may get rid of the error, but will not get you the correct answer. By the way, you may want to look at the differences in behaviour between
(sum(fbyte)/decode(sum(byte),0,NULL))*100 free and
(sum(fbyte)/decode(sum(byte),0,1))*100 free before you use either.
Your real problem is that you have a temp tablespace using temporary files. This is the right thing to do, but, you need another union in your statement, to access dba_temp_files:
SELECT tablespace_name,SUM(obj_cnt) object_count,
       SUM(ini_ext) init_ext, SUM(nex_ext) next_ext,
       SUM(byte)/1048576 bytesize,
       (SUM(byte)/1048576)- (SUM(fbyte)/1048576) byteused,
       SUM(fbyte)/1048576 bytefree, SUM(frags), SUM(largest)/1048576 avail,
       (SUM(fbyte)/SUM(byte))*100 free
FROM (SELECT tablespace_name, 0 obj_cnt, 0 ini_ext, 0 nex_ext, 0 byte,
             SUM(bytes) fbyte, COUNT(*) frags, MAX(bytes) largest
      FROM dba_free_space
      GROUP BY tablespace_name
      UNION ALL
      SELECT tablespace_name,0, 0, 0, sum(bytes), 0, 0, 0
      FROM dba_data_files
      GROUP BY tablespace_name
      UNION ALL
      SELECT tablespace_name,0, 0, 0, sum(bytes), 0, 0, 0
FROM dba_temp_files
GROUP BY tablespace_name
      UNION ALL
      SELECT tablespace_name, 0, initial_extent/1024 ini_ext,
             next_extent/1024 nex_ext, 0,0,0,0
      FROM dba_tablespaces
      UNION ALL
      SELECT tablespace_name, COUNT(*) obj_cnt, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
      FROM dba_segments
      GROUP BY tablespace_name)
GROUP BY tablespace_nameYou should also use UNION ALL instead of UNION, because UNION implies a sort distinct, whil union all does not. The sort is unneccessary, and the distinct may cause you to lose rows.

HP QUERY DATA ERROR((SQLER=ORA01476 divisor is equal to zero

Can you help please.

Well the easiest way to troubleshoot this problem would be to find the row where FBASEVOLTAGE = 0. Something like this maybe:
SELECT BV.FBASEVOLTAGE
     , FB.FMAGNITUDE_RESULT
     , BS.IUBUSNO
FROM                       GN
JOIN                       GM ON GM.IELEMENT_MAP_ID = GN.IELEMENT_MAP_ID
JOIN                       BS ON GM.NPS_ELEMENT_ID   = BS.IUBUSID
                              AND GM.NPS_ELEMENT_TYPE = 101
JOIN   CONFIG_BASE_VOLTAGE BV ON BS.IBASEVOLTAGEID   = BV.IBASEVOLTAGEID
JOIN   FACT_BUS            FB ON FB.IBUS_NO          = BS.IUBUSID
                              AND FB.IPS_CASE_ID      = GN.IPS_CASE_ID
WHERE BV.FBASEVOLTAGE = 0
AND   GN.IPS_CASE_ID = 1637

Divisor is equal to zero error

Hi, I am getting divisor is equal to zero error while doing a calculation using sql. Is there a workaround this ?
Thanks

What do you want to do, if the divisor is 0?
Is the SQL executed in SqlPlus or in a procedure/function?

ORA-01476Never use / nvl(:exc_rate,0)
If :exec_rate is null then you will get that error. Instead you use / nvl(:exc_rate,1) so if your divisor is = to zero you will return the value itself without dividing.

How can I set my y-intercept (b) equal to zero retina macbook 2014

Hello everyone,
I hope you can reply to my question before 11:55p.m. today because that is when my report is due. I graphed my scatter plot and got my trend line, but my professor wants the class to set the y-intercept, the (b) from y=mx+b to zero. Can you guide me step by step on how to do that? I tried clicking on the Data section, then x-value, typed zero, but my graph disappeared. I am supposed to be using Excel for this, but I only have numbers. Can you set the y-int equal to zero using Numbers as well?

Hi Theonlymary,
The LINEST function returns an array of the statistics for a straight line that best fits the given data using the least squares method.
LINEST(known-y-values, known-x-values, nonzero-y-intercept, more-stats)
Type = in a spare cell to bring up the Function Panel. Type LINEST in the search box to see help on that function.
I don't use LINEST but it seems you can get extra stats from an array that it returns.
It won't change your graph (it doesn't need a graph).
Regards,
Ian.

We checked produciton order status TECO (CO03)
but WIP is not equal to zero (KKAO)
Also, we found production order status show "rel" status in KKAO.
Why order status in CO03 is TECO, but show "REL" in KKAO?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
We also had similar issue that the WIP is not equal to zero even though the status of the Process Order is DLV/TECO. When we analyzed, we found that few of the operations/resources/activityeps are not yet confirmed in the same month for the order. These operations/resources/activityeps are confirmed in subsequent month, then WIP got automatically Zero.
Also refer the SAP Note 530563 - WIP calculation: Status DLV and TECO. Which provide the details for how WIP will get calculated.
Thanks & regards,
ADI
