Passing multiple values to a BI query

Hi experts,
This question has probably been asked a few times, but I have an issue with passing multiple values to a BI query. Here's the scenario....
1) I have created a BI query. When I test the query in VC I can enter values 1000:1100 in the Infoobject Business Area and I see that the values are passed through OK
2) Then I created a form where Business Area is an Input Field
3) I linked the form to the BI query and assigned value @Business_area
3) A table is linked to the BI query to view my result ( I have set a distinct before my table to view the data by fiscal year period)
4) When running the VC model, the table show values for 1000 and 1100, but when I enter 1000:1100 and Submit it does not show both the business areas
There must be something I am missing and I thought it was that in my submit string (between the input form and the BI query) that I should fill in some values (instad of @Business_area). I tried to fill in 1000:1100, but then I get an error saying Invalid time 1000:1100.
I would really appreciate any help on this issue :-).

Thomas

Hi Thomas,
I wish to enter default values for dates onto the VC form. Ie I have a VC report to display a customer's shipped data. Ship date is a selection field/ input field on the form for the report/ output table.
At present if a user clicks submit they get all their shipped records from the beginning of time till today. How can I restrict the dates at VC level to past 3months? So if the users don't specify a ship date, they get the past 3 months data, and afterwards they can change it an retrieve all the data or past 2 years as they wish.
Thanks,
Jasmine

Passing multiple values to the QUERY BDOC parameter?

hi All,
Below is my Query BDOC Anchor Before Query Execute even handler... I'm trying to pass multiple values to the bq.Z_PartnerFunction query parameter... i.e.
PARTNER_FCT in( '00000012','ZDIVMGR','ZAREADR')
is it possible without creating new Query Bdoc ?
====================================
Private Sub aempchoicewinTCWSearchTAnchor_beforeQueryExecute(ByRef bq As BusinessQuery, ByRef cancel As Boolean)
If Not bq Is Nothing Then
 If sWcDummy = "Yes" Then
 bq.WcDummy = sWcDummy
 End If
 bq.Z_PartnerFunction = "00000012"
 If ctrlZ_Territory.Value <> "" Then
 bq.PRNB_TerrID = "*" & ctrlZ_Territory.Value
 End If
End If
End Sub
================================
Thanks in advance
Hetal

Hi,
it looks that you already enhanced the query BDoc because you have a new query parameter bq.Z_PartnerFunction, right?
To which BDoc parameter is this BQ parameter mapped? And how looks the related where clause?
For a single filter normally a "=" operator is used. Therefore your example with "in" won't work.
If these three partner functions are fixed then you might hardcoded them directly in the where clause (supposed the BDoc is not used somewhere else where you don't want to have this filter).
Or you might add 3 new BDoc parameters, add 3 new where clauses using a disjunction for them (and using an embracing bracket). In this case always all these 3 BQ parameters need to be filled (or all stay empty) to avoid a SQL syntax error.

How to Pass Multiple Value Range From Query ?

Hi,
I have searched over SDN to find about how do we pass multiple value ranges from Query to SAP ODATA?
But I have not found suitable answers so I am posting it here.
If we need to pass a date parameter in Query which has a multiple range like sales orders created date between 03/02/2014 to 05/07/2014.
How do we phrase it in Query ?
I tried as below but the IT_FILTER_SELECT_OPTIONS of /IWBEP/IF_MGW_APPL_SRV_RUNTIME~GET_ENTITYSET does not get filled up with the parameters

Passing Multiple Values from a worksheet to PL/SQL function.

Hi All,
Is there any way to pass multiple values selected in a worksheet to a PL/SQL function ?
I will try to explain the scenario:
We have a crosstab report that showing all the customer details, deposit sum of a customer in each date in a date range selected. With the customer details we are showing the Rank of a customer based on the deposit in the latest date selected. Filtering is based on the rank, ie Top50 or Top60 etc.( As I said rank is calculating based on the deposit in the latest date).This is working fine.
Now the new requirement is to : For example, in Top50 report, list all the customers, who were in the Top50 list, in any of the dates selected. We are able to display the daywise rank, but when giving a condition like daywiserank <= 50, the result becomes uncertain. Some blank lines, wrong amounts etc..
As a work around we tried to find out the rank in a PL/SQL function. But the issue there is : we have some multiple value parameters used in the worksheet.
Is there any way to pass multiple values selected in a worksheet to a PL/SQL function ?
Or any other work arounds for the scenario explained?

Hi Russ,
Thanks for the response.
Russ Proudman wrote:
1. I thought there was an analytical function similar to rank - or maybe an option of rank - that if there are duplicate records to have them all considered the same rank. So if you had 3 records all the same as rank=2 then a condition saying where rank=2 would return the 3 records. You could check into this.
We are already using DENSE_RANK. But the issue is the output contains incorrect null values nd repeated rows.
We got it solved as I explained in the previous post. But will that AGGREGATION MODE setting ( Which discoverer says - not recommended) have any issue? I mean side effects?
Russ Proudman wrote:
2. Another thought is that you can create a PL/SQL routine - that's called from a SQL function registered in Discoverer - where a table is created that does the first part of your query. Then a worksheet is created to use the data from that table. So, in essence, the table would have your top50 ranked customers. Then you can write any kind of worksheet against that table. However, DBAs are loath to allow tables - that they didn't create! - many times in a PROD environment.
Here also the same problem will occur: as the top 50 will depend upon the parameters. I cannot pass those parameters to PL/SQL Function.And storing the top50 ( itmay be top100 or to 150 also) for all combinations of the parameters is impossible
Russ Proudman wrote:
3. Finally, are you sure you're rank function is correct in that if you're getting blank lines, maybe the 'over' part is not considering all columns needed to determine the rank?
Yes the query we are using is correct. The output QUERY of discoverer gives correct results in Sqlplus.

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.

Passing multiple values to a single input parameter

Hi folks,
I have a Microstrategy query successfully passing input parameter to a calculation view. For example I can pass a movement type to a material movements calculation view input parameter. However if I try to pick more than one movement type the query then fails;
Generated SQL that works looks like this;
select
sum(a11.TOTALQUANTITY) WJXBFS1
from
"_SYS_BIC"."MyPackage/CA_TEST_PASS_PARAMETER"
('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$MoveType$$', '101')
a11
When choosing more than one value in Microstrategy the SQL now fails and looks like this;
select
sum(a11.TOTALQUANTITY) WJXBFS1
from
"_SYS_BIC"."MyPackage/CA_TEST_PASS_PARAMETER"
('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$MoveType$$', '101'),
'PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$MoveType$$', '103'))
a11
If I cut and paste the SQL and run directly in HANA studio the error is;
Could not execute 'select sum(a11.TOTALQUANTITY) WJXBFS1 from "_SYS_BIC"."MyPackage/CA_TEST_PASS_PARAMETER" ...' in 66 ms 361 µs .
SAP DBTech JDBC: [2048]: column store error: search parameter error: [2018] A received argument has an invalid value;TABLE/VIEW parameter: ( 'PLACEHOLDER'='$$MoveType$$, 103') not supported
Is it possible to pass multiple values in a single parameter? I'm using SP67 for this test.
Thanks,
-Patrick

Ravi, also to answer one of your questions about how this will work in Microstrategy; I just heard back from my Microstrategy developer and he is trying MSTR Freeform SQL query with syntax like this;
select (sumPAR_TEST.TOTALQUANTITY TOTALQUANTITY
from "_SYS_BIC"."MyPackage/CA_TEST_PASS_PARAMETER"
('PLACEHOLDER' =('$$MoveType$$', '[Movement Type]')) PAR_TEST
In this example [Movement Type] is the microstrategy prompt. Unfortunately though it translates like this which is missing extra single quotes around each value;
select     sum(PAR_TEST.TOTALQUANTITY) TOTALQUANTITY
from     "_SYS_BIC"."development.pr1959/CA_TEST_PASS_PARAMETER"
('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$MoveType$$', ''101', '102''))   PAR_TEST
instead of what we need which is;
('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$MoveType$$', '''101'', ''102'''))   PAR_TEST
So at this point we are not sure if this will be possible or not.

Passing multiple values in a parameter through IN operator

hello everyone,
i want to know wheather it is possible to pass multiple values to a report parameter and use the parameter in the query with the IN operator.
I feel this should be possible but dont know the way.
Pls help

i have also suffered from this problem. you can solve it by creating a table like
create table abc
id number,
value number;
then follow the steps.
1) insert all the values in this table by incrementing id and values
2) then pass lowest id and larget id to the report
3) now in report use the select statement like
SELECT * FROM AAA WHERE ABC IN (SELECT VALUE FROM ABC WHERE ID BETWEEN V_MAX AND V_MIN)
4) IN THE REPORT'S AFTER TRIGGER, YOU HAVE TO DELETE
THESE TEMPORARILY CREATED ROWS
LIKE
DELETE ABC
WHERE ID BETWEEN V_MAX AND V_MIN;
SO THIS WILL SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM.

HI I tried changing the parameter width to a larger value, it can output , and the field where I show the order_number i used source P_CONTRACT_NO,
it will display as 102005000,102005001 and I also tried using the column from the query directly, it will be separated , it has some other problem
I have the header part and main part,
and also there are page numbering, with the order number field set as order_number it will output single number , but the page order is wrong
102005000,102005001 will be like header page: 102005000 1/4 102005001 2/4, main page 102005000 3/4, 102005001 3/4
DO you have any idea how I can set the page numbering setting so it will output as header page:102005000 1/2 102005000 2/2
header page:102005001 1/2 102005001 2/2
?? thanks

Passing Multiple Values from Multi Select

Hi,
My requirement is simple. I have created a simple Multi Select Option in parameter form and i want to send multiple selected values from the multi select option (in parameter form) to reports.
eg:
I want to send multiple countries code as input .........'US', 'CA', 'IND', 'UK'
Can i do it in Oracle 6i reports, Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Asgar

Hi Thanks Again,
For such a nice response. I got the Lexical Where condition properly running but still getting problems in catching the multiple values to be passed from form. just i will give u an insight of wat i have done:
SQL:
SELECT ALL FROM EMPLOYEES &cond_1* -- Working FIne
in my Html Parameter Form i have an Multi Select component (the Problem is here) it is not passing more than i value from the form once i am accessing it from web or running it in paper report. In paper report layout it is not allowing me to select more than one value. but in HTML it is allowing to select multiple values but at the server end (After Parameter Form Trigger) it is giving a single value not multiple values.
In PL/SQL when i checking the length of country_id i m getting it as one.
Here is my SQL code
srw.message(10, LENGTH(:country_id_1));
:cond_1 := 'where country_id = '''|| :country_id_1 ||'''';
This is passing the condition properly to SQL but only with single value but i want to pass multiple values
I am struck in this+_
WHERE CONTRY_COLUMN IN ('USA','UAE') -- This variable you have to pass from you form...
Here as you said you gave multiple selection in your parameter form to generate report. So before generation report just prepare variable like this as it is bold above.
and pass parameter through your runtime form to the report as you pass the normal parameter...liket this i gave you example...
ADD_PARAMETER(PARAMETER_LIST_NAME,'P_CONT_PARAM',TEXT_PARAMETER,vString);
Sorry for troubling you for a small thing but please help me to solve this issue.
Thanks Again............

How can i pass multiple values by a single variable to EXECUTE IMMEDIATE

Hi All,
I want to pass multiple values for where condition for execute immediate. Something Like this:-
bold
Declare
v_cond varchar(1000);
Begin
v_cond := '''INR','USD'''; --(OPTION 1)
v_cond := 'INR,USD'; --(OPTION 2)
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'Delete from table where colm in (:v_cond)' using v_cond;
END;
bold
I am using this into a procedure
Now option 1 gives an error ie a syntax error (; expected or something like that)(I am sorry, i can't tell the exact error here as i am not in the office right now)
and option 2 makes the procedure execute but obviously doesn't delete the records, as it takes the whole as one.
Please Help

Passing multiple values to a parmeters in Discoverer 4i

Hi Friends,
I have a requirement of passing multiple values (Operating Unit Names) to the parameter(P_Opr_Unit) in Discoverer.
I am using PL/SQL function to get the data in Discoverer.Function is working fine for multiple values from Database(SQL Developer).
When i am trying to pass multiple values from discoverer ...it is accepting only the first parameter value of Operating Unit.
Need your Expertise on this issue.
Thanks In Advance.
Thanks & Regards
Ramya Nomula

Hi,
You can only pass one parameter value into a function. When you have a multi-valued parameter it enables you to create the condition: item IN (:param) which Discoverer expands to the condition: item IN ('val1', 'val2', 'val3') where these are the values the user has picked from the list of values.
Now if you have a calculation containing a function and a parameter: my_func(:param) then Discoverer has to map the parameter in the function an item in the worksheet. So if the param is from a multi-valued list it can only pass one value and so expands the calculation to my_func('val1') where val1 is the first item picked from the list.

Hi Frank,
You should close this parameters with single quotation. Try this -
Select '<a href="javascript:popUp2('''
|| 'f?p=&APP_ID.:950:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.::'
|| 'P950_TYPE,P950_CODE:'
*|| 'descr, Met'*
|| ''', 790, 460);"style="color:darkred; font-weight: bold;font-size: 90%">'
|| descr
|| '</a>' "Note"
Hope this helps.
