Problem with "/" in formula

Hi
I use CR XI R2
I would like to write something like this in my formula
- string field from database
"/" - like a normal text string, not like a division,

Hi..
Also you can use :
If you want to show entire as string then " / "
Thanks,

Problem with member formulas and allocation

Hi guys,
I am experiencing a problem I am not currently able to solve. I'm building a planning application in which
volumes can be inputed in different units of measure (5 are currently available). For example a user can input in liter or KG, and the
system converts this data in all the different units of measure available, executing a script logic after
the input (for every bas member is also stored a conversion factor, which is used by the logic for conversion).
Two are the major issues of this approach:
1) storing 5 different volumes for every SKU is consuming in term of disk and DB space;
2) script logic must be executed every time the user sends data and in some cases this could be time-consuming.
The solution I'm trying is to use member formulas in order to calculate different units of measure, storing
only one of these. However, this way lead to another problem: when I try to input data with a top-down approach, using BPC
ALLOCATION ENGINE, I cannot use the correct unit of measure as a driver for the spread.
For example, if I input volumes is KG, and the unit of measure stored is only liter, I cannot use nor KG as a driver (because is not stored,
but only a member formula) neither liter, because the spread using this driver would lead to a wrong result.
What I would like to do is to give the user the possibility to input in the desired unit of measure at an aggregated level and spread data
using the existing mix, which must be volumes with the same unit of measure used for input.
Does anyone has an idea that could help me?
Regards

hi
i found a solution for the Problem in another Forum
http://businessintelligence.ittoolbox.com/groups/technical-functional/hyperion-admin-l/dynamic-calc-formulas-not-refreshed-1719379?cv=expanded
The suggestion is
1. change the Member from Dynamic Calc to Store
2. Refresh (After these Step the Formulas where still out of sync)
3. change the Member from Store to Dynamic Calc
4. Refresh
After these Steps the Formulas are in sync again.

Problem with the Formula variable

Dear All,
There is a need to convert INR values to USD values. Since my source table in r/3 is not having currency value stored i cant use currency translation type to achieve the same.
So i am using formula variable to determine the Exchange rate.
I have created the CKF with the following calculation = INR values / 'ZEXC_RT'.
Here zexc_rt is a formula variable which is a customer exit and of type Number.
Now in cmod i am writing a code to determine the value for this formula variable. But the problem is with data type of formula variable and tcurr table UKURS (Exchange rate) field. I have defined formula variable as Number and my UKURS field is of decimal data type because of which the currency conversion is not taking place.
Here is my code below . Kindly suggest how can i achieve this.
My logic is :- Whenever the user runs the report take the system date and determine the previous month. Then go to tcurr table and get the exchange rate which matches with the previous month date.
WHEN 'ZEXC_RT'.
*   IF I_STEP=2.
    CLEAR L_S_RANGE.
    DATA: v_date(10).
    DATA: v_rate type C.
    DATA: z_date(8).
    concatenate sy-datum+0(4) sy-datum+4(2) '01' into v_Date.
    v_date = v_date - 1.
    concatenate v_date+0(4) v_date+4(2) '01' into v_date.
select SINGLE UKURS into v_rate from tcurr where GDATU = V_date
and KURST ='M'.
    l_s_range-low = v_rate.
    l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
    l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
    APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.

Hi Anup,
I am not able to get the exact problem.
CKF is not working means it is giving the INR Values or it is giving some random value.
Please check your code first by writing a text program in se38 if you are able to read the value correctly from TCURR.
Domain UKURS has a conversion routine EXCRT. You may require to use it to get the correct value.
Once you get the right value in the program, you can use the same logic in your formula variable and you should get the correct values.
Let me know if it helps.
Regards,
Gaurav

Problem with a Formula in ABAP

hello,

This Formula is used normally in a query. but i need it in my StartRoutine as ABAP Code.
hope anyone can help

Possibly...
IF variable EQ 0 OR variable EQ 1
variable = 100.
ENDIF.
IF variable GE 2 AND variable LE 4.
variable = variable + 95.
ENDIF.
Where does this formula come from? Without knowing it's difficult to answer you directly.

Problem with custom formula

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement in which we have to show the fact data of the cube to be annualized for time dimension i.e. if users check at year level the value should be multiplied by 1,for quarter level the value should be multiplied by 3 and for month level it should be multiplied by 12.
I wrote a formula like this and it compiled successfully.
IF(FINANCIALPERIOD_LEVELREL EQ 'CALENDAR_MONTH') THEN this_aw!measure * 12 -
ELSE IF (FINANCIALPERIOD_LEVELREL EQ 'CALENDAR_QUARTER') then this_aw!measure * 4 -
ELSE this_aw!TEST_CUBE_SALSA_MEAS * 1
When I run rpr on this formula I get following error.
ORA-34612: Your program or expression uses too much execution space. Eliminate recursion or reduce the levels of nesting.
I treid limiting it to if else only but same error. Any resolution to this?
On the side note when I write the above expressions in a program and tries to compile it gives me structural errors?
Thanks
Brijesh

What is the definition of the "TEST_CUBE_SALSA_MEAS" measure
i.e can you supply the full output of the command below
fulldsc TEST_CUBE_SALSA_MEAS*
Please also issue a fulldsc command on your formula so that we can have a look at its dimensionality and other parameters

Problem with garnishments

This is a weird problem we are having. When we create any garnishment elements and try to use them, we get an error saying that the compiled version of the formula cannot be found. At the time of the creation of the garnishment element, it gives an error saying that there was a problem with the formula. Upon checking the formula, I found that the formula was not compiled. I tried compiling it when it gave a data mismatch error! This is a seeded formula and it has a data mismatch error! The formula uses the "is_number_null" formula function which takes a number variable as the input and gives Y or N depending on whether the value it received was null or not. The formula said the data mismatch is here and the error number that it gave is APP-FF-33006 of which there are no details anywhere! I tried using 'to_text' before the 'is_number_null' function and the formula compiled but it gave another error in the payroll run for the employee. What do you think is the problem here?
The garnishment used to work properly before. I think one of the year end patches or other technology patches is causing this problem. Any ideas?

I found the problem here. Instead of using is_number_null, i used isnull directly and it works fine. isnumbernull was defined to call isnull anyway. so i still don't understand why it wasn't working properly, but i fixed it anyway.

How to troubleshoot problems with Excel import

When I import a spreadsheet from Excel into Numbers, I get a notification window with a long list of errors encountered during the import. I can deal with the formatting issues, and I've managed to get rid of most of the "unsupported formulas" errors. However, I still have one stubborn "unsupported formulas" error. How do I get Numbers to identify which cell(s) have unsupported formulas that were removed on import from Excel?

There are some triangle symbols, but they refer to using a BOOLEAN as a number. That's not where the problem with unsupported formulas is, though. Numbers says that it replaced the cells that had unsupported formulas with the contents of the cell at the time of import, which I interpret as meaning that I should be looking at cells that don't contain formulas. My problem is that I have lots of cells that contain only numbers, and I somehow need to find that single cell that have an unsupported formula in the Excel version of the file.
Thanks for the suggestion, though.

Problem with applescript dates from Numbers

Can anyone explain this to me please?
tell application "Numbers" to tell table 1 of sheet 1 of front document
set value of cell ("C2") to "=NOW()"
set nowDate to (value of cell "D2")
log nowDate
end tell
results in
26 Mar, 2013 5:10 PM
appearing in cell C2, but the log tells me
(*date Wednesday, 27 March 2013 6:10:14 AM*)
I realise that the date formats will differ - and one of Yvan Koenigs's useful postings explains that when we extract a date from a Numbers table we get a UTC date time value. He also showed how to get rid of that problem with the formula :
="" & ref_to_date_time_cell
But the UTC time when I obtained the above result was 4:10 am on 26th March, not 6:10 am on 27th March. Why is this?
Incidentally, is there a better way of putting the current date into an applescript variable?

If your local time is 5:10 PM on the 26th when the UTC time is 4:10 AM on the 26th, your local time is apparently 13 hours ahead of UTC. Therefore, if the UTC time were 5:10 PM on the 26th, your local time would be 6:10 AM on the 27th. There is nothing inconsistant here. Numbers' value is a local time, but AppleScript thinks it is UTC and converts it.
In general, the current date command in AppleScript would be the best way to put the current date into an AppleScript variable; no need to involve Numbers:
set nowDate to current date
(See the Miscellaneous Commands section of the Standard Additions dictionary in your AppleScript Editor.)

Problem with variables in formulas when using CrystalReportViewer

Post Author: Aksu
CA Forum: Formula
Hi! I have a problem with variables in Crystal Reports formulas, when using CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms.CrystalReportViewer class from VS2005-project. ReportViewer always gives error:*************Crystal Report Windows Forms ViewerThis field name is not known.Details: errorKindError in File C:\{dir]}\{file}.rpt:Error in formula <mCustomerAttributes>.'Dim result As String'This field name is not known.Details: errorKind ************* Report without variables works fine with Viewer and in Crystal Reports Designer report with variables works also fine. I have tried with both "formula-syntaxes" - basic and crystal. But Viewer always gives error when trying to define new variable.I think the problem might be with CR -versions, because VS-project has formerly been designed to VS2003 and CR9 or 10. Now I'm using VS2005 and CR11. Though I have changed all references to new CrystalDecisions-asseblies (Ver.11.0.3300.0), when I debug the project and checkout the Viewers ReportSources FormatEngine Shows version CR9_2....

I'd really appreciate it... ---Aksu

Has anyone been able to answer this question?
I am having the same problem:
I am designing a report in Crystal Reports XI Developer that contains parameters, which are passed to a stored procedure and are also used within formulas ( in Crystal Syntax ie. {?FORMAT_ID} ) in the report itself.
I can run the report successfully in CRXI Developer. The formulas use the correct values from the parameters entered during execution and everything looks good.
I then deploy the report to Business Objects Enterprise XI. I do all of the things necessary to manage the report including setting up the proper database connection information and default parameter values.
When I run the report using the Crystal Report Viewer, I get the following error message:
Error in File Forecasting.rpt:
Error in formula <Report Format>.
'if (not isNull({?FORMAT_ID} ) ) then
This field name is not known.
Details: errorKind
This happens when I press the "Preview" button in the Manage Object dialog from Crystal or when I run the report using InfoView.
I have changed the formulas and it doesn't seem to matter what the specific content of the formula is; other than the existence of a parameter reference in the formula. If I comment out the parameter and replace it with a hard-coded value, it gets through the formula fine.
Does Business Objects Enterprise XI support crystal reports with parameter references in the formulas?
Thanks,
Tim H.

Problem with formula variable

HI,
I am facing problem with formula variable with replacement path. my requirement is system date - posting date.
here i created 2 formula variable one is system date. second formula vaiable with replacement path is posting date. second formula vaiable not populating data. please help on that.
regards,
kris

Hi,
here is some idea.. here i have taken expample dates 1)notification creation date and 2) notification completion.
1st:in the query designer at key figure coloumn create
one local formula.in that local formula create formula
variable with replacement path.in that take reference character
notification completion.in the next tab take replace ment
as key.in the last tab select "date".
2nd: do the same thing for the notification creation date.
3 rd : create 3 rd local formula and do the substraction
for the first 2 local formulas.
4th:create codition on the difference which u have find with
on that condition u can create one user entry varibale.
5th:while u defining the query put these 2 dates,i,e
notification completion, notification creation date in the character block.
If not system will ignore the formula variable which u created in
above steps.
Hope this wil help u.

GETPIVOTDATA formula problem with apostrophe

Excel 2010 on Win7 - Having a problem with the GETPIVOTDATA formula.
GETPIVOTDATA(data_field, pivot_table[, field1, item1]
If "data_field", "field1" or "item1" contain a value that has an apostrophe (i.e. single quote), the function returns a #REF! error. It works fine in all other cases. I tried placing those values within brackets (ex: "[Moody's]")
and using the old SQL trick of doubling up the apostrophe (ex: "Moody''s"), and combining both those methods. But no luck. Has anyone else been able to solve this problem?
Thanks.

Many problems with the 'Export to Text' (.txt) in CR Xi

Hi,
I have listed many problems with the 'Export to Text' (.txt) function of CR Xi.
These problems are related to this export format only (meaning everything works fine in the Viewer or in the 'Export to PDF')...
- Multi-columns layout do not export as Multi-column (export only a one column);
- Numeric values with parenthesis for negative values or with a fix currency sign at the leftmost position are not exported correctly;
- Fields having a Suppress formula which is "WhilePrintingRecords" do not appears when exported;
- Fields with 'Suppress double value' checked are not always suppressed when exported to Text.
- 'Keep Group Together' flag is not working.
- 'Reset Page Number After' simply does not works when exported to text;
- 'Keep object together' on TextBox/Section is not working.
- Whenever a group is ending on the last line of a page, the the following page as the same Group header as the previous group with no records until the page is filled, then the PageBreak and PageHeader is missing but the records of the following group appears.
I would like to know what is the status of the 'Export to Text' function (is it a deprecated function not supported anymore???).
If still supported, when will these bugs be fixed???
Thanks

Hi Rene
Export to Text is supported till date. Crystal Reports 2008 also supports this with Keep together working however when I tried with format with multiple columns, it didnot show up in the exported text file.

Problem with freeze on Document forms

Hi all,
i've a problem with freeze on document's forms (like invoice) when i make changes on matrix.
For example i've an addon that calculate discounts for items and update the information in the matrix. But when I update the info in the Matrix I see the cursor run across the matrix.
This create two problems. The first one is the orrible aspect that the operation assume, the second is that sometimes some cells turn to black and remain ofthis color.
Can someone help me?
Here I post a piece of my code:
    Dim oForm As SAPbouiCOM.Form = SBOApplication.Forms.Item(FormUID)
    Dim oMatrix As SAPbouiCOM.Matrix = oForm.Items.Item("38").Specific
    Dim oRefLine As Integer = 0
    oForm.Freeze(True)
    Dim Cnt As Integer = 1
    Try
      While Cnt <= oMatrix.RowCount
        If oMatrix.Columns.Item("U_RefLineId").Cells.Item(Cnt).Specific.Value <> "" Then
          Dim apDouble As Double = oMatrix.Columns.Item("15").Cells.Item(Cnt).Specific.Value.ToString.Replace(".", ",")
          If apDouble <> 100 Then
            SetMatrixValue(oMatrix, "U_RefLineId", Cnt, "")
            SetMatrixValue(oMatrix, "11", Cnt, oMatrix.Columns.Item("U_OrigQtyMN").Cells.Item(Cnt).Specific.Value)
            SetMatrixValue(oMatrix, "U_OrigQtyMN", Cnt, 0)
            Cnt = Cnt + 1
          Else
            oMatrix.Columns.Item("15").Cells.Item(Cnt).Click()
            SBOApplication.ActivateMenuItem("1293")
          End If
        Else
          SetMatrixValue(oMatrix, "15", Cnt, 0)
          Cnt = Cnt + 1
        End If
      End While
    Catch ex As Exception
      SBOApplication.StatusBar.SetText("Error: " & ex.Message, SAPbouiCOM.BoMessageTime.bmt_Short, SAPbouiCOM.BoStatusBarMessageType.smt_Error)
    End Try
    oForm.Freeze(False)

Hi Daniele,
I use a little different approach because the Freeze on a Form is like parenthesis on formula. You must be sure that the Freeze(true) are balanced by a Freeze(false).
So my pattern is:
Try
    oForm.Freeze(True)
    ' the operation you need to do with the freezed form
Catch Ex as Exception
    ' Menage the errors here
Finally
    oForm.Freeze(False)
End Try
The Finally statement is executed in both case when an Exception is raised or when the code is right executed.
But I think this is not the problem in your code.
If you still having problem, probably we need to examine your sub-routine "SetMatrixValue".
It is also important to know your SAP Business One version because in the past there was a version with a problem in the refresh of matrix.
I use SAP Business One 2007A SP01 PL06 HF1 and I do not have problem with the freezing.
Hope it helps.

Problem with Math In Calculated Fields

I am calculating a group incident rate for data returned from
a query. The formula is Number of cases multiplied by 200000
divided by number of hours worked. Cases in my report is the
calculated field: calc.CaseSum (the sum of cases for the group)
Hours is calc.SumHours (the sum of hours for the group). The actual
values for these variables (for the first group are 48 and 29427171
respectively. When I create the following calculated field called
rate using the formula: (calc.CaseSum * 200000) / calc.SumHours,
Cold Fusion Generates a Runtime Error:
Invalid ColdFusion expression in report. If the expression is
a string, ensure that it is within quotes. Error: (calc.CaseSum *
200000) / calc.SumHours is not a valid ColdFusion expression.
If I use the constant value "29427171" as the divisor, the
report works albeit only for the first group. Any ideas; is this a
bug, or am I misusing the product?
Addition: I forgot to mention I am using CF8. Also this
formula worked fine as a Report Total before I introduced grouping
and modified the calculated fields to reset on the change of a
group.

Sorry, I've been on another project for awhile. This problem
will certainly be a "show stopper" for me if I cannot resolve it.
As I mentioned in my original post, I used a constant in the
formula in lieu of the variable and the calculation worked. This
would suggest that CF does not have a problem with a large number.
In spite of that reasoning, I tried Tony's suggested (thanks
by the way!) with the identical outcome, only difference is the new
formula is displayed in the error message.
Tony, you also suggested that I set the variables using
CFSET... How would I do this within the report writer environment.
I had tried a similar approach: to perform half the calculation
i.e. that within the parenthesis, and assign that value to a
separate "calculated field: and then perform the rest of the
calculation on that variable with the same outcome.
I think that I may be dealing with a CF bug here, I'd like to
find a workaround... I've noticed that CF8 has a new patch, perhaps
after I apply it, I may be able to get this thing to work. I'm on
another project right now so it will be a few days before I can
test this theory, I report the result.
Should this fail, and no one can come up with a workaround, I
will report this to Adobe.
