Passing parameter to function

Hi All
I created a custom folder in a business area through discoverer administrator. In this folder one column is returned by
the funtion.
I am passing three parameters parameter1, parameter2, parameter3 to this funtion these 3 parameters are used
in an sql where clause in the function.
I would like to pass the 4th parameter to the function this parameter is input by the user while running the discoverer
report from discoverer desktop. Is there any way that I can pass the user parameter value to the function, or any
alternative solution for this problem.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Ali

Hi Ali
You create the function in teh database and then grant the appropriate Discoverer roles or account execute permission over the function. You also need to make sure that the Discoverer Administrator has this privilege too.
With the function created you bring it into Discoverer. Here's a workflow:
1. Log in as the administrator to Discoverer Administrator
2. Select Tools | Register PL/SQL Functions to open the PL/SQL Functions dialog box
3. With the dialog box open, click the Import button
4. In the Import PL/SQL Functions box, type the name name of the user that owns the function and then click the Go button - Discoverer will now display a list of the functions.
5. Highlight the one you want and then click the OK button.
6. Back in the main box, click the Validate button to make sure Discoverer is able to use it
7. Once validated, click the OK button to complete the import and close the box
With the function imported it will now appear in Plus in the Database folder of funxtions when creating a calculation.
Best wishes

Passing parameter to Function in select clause BIP 11g

Hi,
I am developing a dataset where i ahave to pass Parameter to a function which retrives the cursor in BIP 11g
below is the SQL:
select cizcompfn(:P_USER_ID) COMPANY_INFO,
cizinstfn(:P_REPORT_CD, :P_USER_ID) CURRENCY_INFO,
sysdate AS PRINT_DATE_TIME_INFO,
cizlballfn(:P_REPORT_CD, :P_USER_ID) LABEL_INFO,
cipacsvpfn(:P_USER_ID, to_char(:P_FROM_DT,'yyyy-MM-dd') ,
to_char(:P_TO_DT, 'yyyy-MM-dd')) RETURN_CODE_INFO, rpt_option_val SERVER
FROM ci_rpt_option where rpt_opt_flg = 'RPSV'
I have created the 4 parameters :P_USER_ID, :P_REPORT_CD , :P_FROM_DT and :P_TO_DT
I am not getting the result generated.
If develop the dataset in BIP 10g, this working fine.
Please, let me know what needs to changed so that it works in BIP11g.
Regards,
Hemanth

I am getting the result like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

Value for two columns:
sysdate AS PRINT_DATE_TIME_INFO
rpt_option_val SERVER
which are straight forward columns.
When i pass hardcoded values instaed of parameters I get the XML:
Below is the SQL:

How to pass parameter in Function by using select statement?

Hi,
I got a problem. I cant pass in parameter to function by using select statement. But it can pass in parameter by using 'hardcode' method. How can I solve this problem?
Eg,
select * from table (SplitFunction('HS750020,HS750021')) <<< this work.
but
select * from table (SplitFunction(select LOT_NO from TRACER_SEARCH_SCHEDULE where JOB_ID = '36')) <<< do not work.
Thanks for who try to help. Thanks.

Passing parameter in function module

hi friends,
I have created one function module in which i need to pass PO/SO number from standard EKKO/VBAK tables through the select option parameter S_POSONO. Inside the function module I have a select query which fetches the records from a Z-table which has a field called 'REFERENCE' which is 16-char long. Hence the length mismatches with PO/SO no which is 10-char long. the first 10-char from 'REFERENCE' is PO/SO number, next 3-char is line-item num, and the last three char is schedule item num. It is required to match only first 10-char with the parameter passed i.e, S_POSONO and display only those datas.
The function module is as follows.....
Function :
CALL FUNCTION 'YFIIN_RETRIEVE_SOURCE_DATA'
EXPORTING
   LT_RANGE_BUKRS          = S_BUKRS[]
   LT_RANGE_DOCNO          = S_POSONO[]

                                 and doc_date in LT_RANGE_docdate.

please help me to solve this problem..

Hi Ram Tej,
Try this.
First Read all the records without Checking REFERENCE field with LT_RANGE_DOCNO into an internal Tbale.
Then looping at that internal table delete records from the same internal table where REFERENCE(10) <> LT_RANGE_DOCNO.
Hope this may help ur requirement.

Passing Parameter to Function - ORA-00904

Hi - I wonder if anyone can help with this problem please?
I have developed a function, which works fine, returning a collection as a table. It takes a single parameter, the numeric userid. I've put a report on the page, and hardcoded the userid during testing:
SELECT rec_id, period_id, proj_id, proj_name, hrs_last_week, hrs_this_week
FROM TABLE (SELECT tr_return_user_times(364) AS TR_USERTIMES_TAB
FROM DUAL)
This works great, and shows the data perfectly. So the next step, was to set up a variable to hold the userid of the person within the application. I've an application item named F155_USERID. If I display this on the page, I am happy that the value is as expected. However, when I put the variable into the function call, it won't parse:
SELECT rec_id, period_id, proj_id, proj_name, hrs_last_week, hrs_this_week
FROM TABLE (SELECT tr_return_user_times(:F155_USERID) AS TR_USERTIMES_TAB FROM DUAL)
now gets the error:
Query cannot be parsed within the Builder. If you believe your query is syntactically correct, check the ''generic columns'' checkbox below the region source to proceed without parsing.
If I switch to use generic columns, and run the debug, the item does substitute ok, (i.e. 0.04: binding: ":F155_USERID"="F155_USERID" value="364")
but I get
report error: ORA-00904: "TR_RETURN_USER_TIMES": invalid identifier
If I run the command in TOAD, and put in the same value (364) when prompted for the variable substitution, again, it works fine. This has to be something really simple, but it's cost me a few hours now - I am tearing my hair out (and at my age there's no guarantee it will grow back). Any help appreciated!

Found it!

Passing parameter to function on stage from symbol

I have a symbol on the stage: symbol1
Inside symbol1 I have an image: symbol1_image1
I have another symbol on the stage: symbol2
Inside symbol2 I have an image: symbol2_image2
in composition.ready I have an action on the mouseout for symbol1:
var theTarget = sym.getComposition().getStage().getSymbol('symbol2').$('symbol2_image2');
sym.getComposition().getStage().doMouseoutGS(theTarget);
In composition.ready i have the following function defined
sym.doMouseout = function (colorTile){
sym.$(colorTile.show());
I cannot get this to work and I am not understanding why.
If I do an alert on the mouseout function for
alert($(colorTile).attr("id"));
I get the correct referenc to the element I want to show but it does not actually happen

Hi Marlene,
As I already mentionned in a preceding reply in another of your threads, you should use the event object e that gives you access to the target (e.target), without the need to explicitly build a theTarget variable.
For example, say you want to factorize in a symbol (stage) function the rollover behavior shared by a certain number of buttons :
• btn<i>.mouseover
sym.getComposition().getStage().globalFunction( e);
• document.compositionReady
sym.globalFunction = function( eBtn)
console.log( eBtn.target.getAttribute(“id“));
Then, using Firebug or Chrome dev. tools, you'll see in the console the id of each of the buttons you hover over.

How to pass parameter to function when confirm(Alert.show) closed?

<![CDATA[
import mx.controls.*;
import mx.events.*;
private function deleteItem(guid:String):void
Alert.show("Are sure you want to delete?", "Confirm Delete", Alert.YES|Alert.NO, this, alertClicked);
private function alertClicked(event:CloseEvent) {
if(event.detail == Alert.YES) {
Alert.show("yes "+guid); //<-- here I want to get guid
else if (event.detail == Alert.NO){
Alert.show("no ");
return;
]]>
Thanks.

Hi Itambs,
You can do the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" creationComplete="deleteItem('Dummy GUID VALUE')">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
   import mx.controls.*;
   import mx.events.*;
   private var myAlert:Alert;
   private function deleteItem(guid:String):void
    myAlert = Alert.show("Are sure you want to delete?", "Confirm Delete", Alert.YES|Alert.NO, this, alertClicked);
    myAlert.data = guid;
    myAlert.height = 150;
                myAlert.width = 300;
   private function alertClicked(event:CloseEvent):void{
    if(event.detail == Alert.YES) {
       //Alert.show("yes "+guid); //<-- here I want to get guid
       Alert.show("yes "+ myAlert.data);
    else if (event.detail == Alert.NO){
       Alert.show("no ");
       return;
]]>
</mx:Script>
</mx:Application>
Note: you can also do this in another way by decalring a global variable guid as ...... private var _guid:String="";
set _guid = guid; in deleteItem() function and then in alertClicked() function you can access the value as _guid again...which holds the saved value...
If this post answers your question or helps, please kindly mark it as such.

Passing parameter values to powershell function from batch file

Hello ,
I haven't used powershell for a while and getting back to using it. I have a function and I want to figure out how to pass the parameter values to the function through batch file.
function Check-FileExists($datafile)
write-host "InputFileName : $datafile"
$datafileExists = Test-Path $datafile
if ($datafileExists)
return 0
else
return -100
<#
$datafile = "C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PreIDFiles\SampleInputFile_011.txt"
$returncode = Check-FileExists -datafile $datafile
Write-Host "ReturnCode : $returncode"
$datafile = "C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PreIDFiles\SampleInputFile_01.txt"
$returncode = Check-FileExists -datafile $datafile
Write-Host "ReturnCode : $returncode"
#>
The above code seems to be work when I call it. But when I try to call that script and try to pass the parameter values, I am doing something wrong but can't figure out what.
powershell.exe -command " &{"C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PowerShell\BulkLoad_Functions.ps1" $returncode = Check-FileExists -datafile "C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PreIDFiles\SampleInputFile_01.txt"}"
Write-Host "ReturnCode : $returncode"
$file = "C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PreIDFiles\SampleInputFile_01.txt"
powershell.exe -file "C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PowerShell\BulkLoad_Functions.ps1" $returncode = Check-FileExists -datafile $datafile
Somehow the I can't get the datafile parameter value being passed to the function. Your help would be much appreciated.
I90Runner

I am not sure about calling a function in a script like how you want to. Also I see you are setting the values of the parameters, this is not needed unless you want default values if nothing is passed. The values for the parameters will be passed via the
batch file. So for me the easiest way is as indicated.
param
[string]$DataFile
function Check-FileExists($datafile)
write-host "InputFileName : $datafile"
$datafileExists = Test-Path $datafile
if ($datafileExists)
return 0
else
return -100
Write-Host "Return Code: $(Check-FileExists $DataFile)"
Then you create a batch file that has
start powershell.exe
-ExecutionPolicy
RemoteSigned -Command
"& {<PathToScript>\MyScript.ps1 -DataFile 'C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PreIDFiles\SampleInputFile.txt'}"
Double click the batch file, and it should open a powershell console, load your script and pass it the path specified, which then the script runs it and gives you your output

Pass table name as a parameter to function

Is there a way to pass table name as a parameter to functions? Then update the table in the function.
Thanks a lot.
Jiaxin

Hi, Harm,
Thank you very much for your suggestion and example. But to get my program work, i need to realise code like follows:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION delstu_func(stuno char) RETURN NUMBER AS
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'DELETE FROM student s' ||
'WHERE' || 's.student_number' || '=' || stuno;
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('record deleted');
END LOOP;
END;
SELECT delstu_func('s11') FROM STUDENT;
The intention is to check if such a function can perform operations such as update, delete and insert on occurence of certain values. When executing the above statement, the system returns an error message:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended
ORA-06512: at "SCMJD1.DELSTU_FUNC", line 3
Could you tell me where is wrong?

Can I pass a table function parameter like this?

This works. Notice I am passing the required table function parameter using the declared variable.
DECLARE @Date DATE = '2014-02-21'
SELECT
h.*, i.SomeColumn
FROM SomeTable h
LEFT OUTER JOIN SomeTableFunction(@Date) I ON i.ID = h.ID
WHERE h.SomeDate = @Date
But I guess you can't do this?... because I'm getting an error saying h.SomeDate cannot be bound. Notice in this one, I am attempting to pass in the table function parameter from the SomeTable it is joined to by ID.
DECLARE @Date DATE = '2014-02-21'
SELECT
h.*, i.SomeColumn
FROM SomeTable h
LEFT OUTER JOIN SomeTableFunction(h.SomeDate) I ON i.ID = h.ID
WHERE h.SomeDate = @Date

Hi
NO you cant pass a table function parameter like this?
As When you declare @date assign value to it and pass as a parameter it will return table which you can use for join as you did it in first code
But when you pass date from some other table for generating table from your funtion it doesnt have date as it is not available there

Is it possible to pass table name as parameter to function calls?

Let's say I would like to retrieve data from table BSAD, BSID, BSIS, BSAS with the exact same WHERE conditions.
I.E.
      SELECT SINGLE * FROM bsis
           WHERE bukrs = zbukrs
             AND belnr = zbelnr
             AND gjahr = zgjahr
             AND buzei = bseg-buzei.
      SELECT SINGLE * FROM bsas
           WHERE bukrs = zbukrs
             AND belnr = zbelnr
             AND gjahr = zgjahr
             AND buzei = bseg-buzei.
Is there a way that I could put them into a function and do something like?
perform select_table_bsas using 'bsas'.
perform select_table_bsis using 'bsis'.
and I should get SELECT * FROM passed from the function calls.
Thanks.

Hello,
You can try something like this
DATA : LV_DBTAB1 LIKE DD02L-TABNAME.
DATA : DREF TYPE REF TO DATA.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <ITAB> TYPE ANY TABLE. " used to store dynamic tables
LV_DBTAB1 = 'MARA'. " in caps
CREATE DATA DREF TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF (LV_DBTAB1)
                            WITH NON-UNIQUE DEFAULT KEY.
ASSIGN DREF->* TO <ITAB> .
* chooses only english values
SELECT * FROM (LV_DBTAB1) INTO TABLE <ITAB> WHERE SPRAS = 'E'.
here, even the internal table is dynamic, but that can be static if you know the structure for sure

Import statement: pass parameter or variable in import statement ??

Hi All..
Is there a way to pass parameter or a variable to a url in the import statement..
I'll be using a url in the import statement, the url will be having a dynamic .rtf file...something like
<?import:http://#server#:#port#/xmlpserver/<mySubTemplate>.rtf?>
where <mySubTemplate> is dynamic..
I've been searching this thread for a while now and ended up close...
Import sub template dynamically
Thanks in Advance..

Have you tried replacing the mySubtemplate.rtf part with a variable, or replace the entire URL using a variable? Try using the same construct from this example in the Report Designer's guide (page 7-14, 10.1.3.4).
In Microsoft Word's Format Picture dialog box select the Web tab. Enter the
following syntax in the Alternative text region to reference the image URL:
url:{IMAGE_LOCATION}
where IMAGE_LOCATION is an element from your XML file that holds the full
URL to the image.
You can also build a URL based on multiple elements at runtime. Just use the
concat function to build the URL string. For example:
url:{concat(SERVER,'/',IMAGE_DIR,'/',IMAGE_FILE)}
where SERVER, IMAGE_DIR, and IMAGE_FILE are element names from your XML
file that hold the values to construct the URL.
This method can also be used with the OA_MEDIA reference as follows:
url:{concat('${OA_MEDIA}','/',IMAGE_FILE)}

Special Character as parameter in Function....

Hi All,
Can we pass ~ (tild) as parameter in Function. Actually, i have created a function where i am passing 2 parameters. 1 is branchname and second is branchid. It might possible that a branch can have 2 branchid. Both are same except that second branchid contains '~01' at end. example : if branchid = 789 then second branchid will be 789~01.
When i pass 789, the function is working fine & gives desired result. But when i pass 789~01. It is not executing. I have checked the source table & found that data are available for 789~01. Both parameters are VARCHAR2 datatype.
I have also checked the logic in the function by DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE. It gives all information for branchid 789, but no information for 789~01.

Hi All,
Can we pass ~ (tild) as parameter in Function. Actually, i have created a function where i am passing 2 parameters. 1 is branchname and second is branchid.
