  • Prompt with Default date (Current Date)

    Hi Experts,
    I have WEBI Report With Calendar Date (0CALDAY) Object on a OLAP Universe (OLAP Universe built on SAP BW BEx Query).
    I need to create a prompt on Calendar Date Object with default value as Current date (systemdate). I need to create this at universe level not at BEx level (No Exceptions).
    Looking forward to hear from you.
    -Thanks,
    Deepu

    Hi Ingo,
    Thanks for your response.

    But EXIT Variable has a DEFAULT value in BEx Designer. DEFAULT Value (Current system Date) is populated when a BEx Query is Run. How come it is not properly reflected into BOBJ?. It retrieves the data for Current system Date in BOBJ too when WEBI Query is run but it does not show Current system Date in prompt screen.
    I hope you understand my problem.

  • Ascending order values??

    Hi,
    I need some small help regarding writing an algorithm. I want to find out maximum array values for given random array.
    sample data:
    Input :
    A[5] = { 3,2,7,4,1}
    //here i'm giving random values in an array
    output :
    1,2,3,4,7
    // here i need output like ascending order
    if anybody knows ,please help me.
    Thank you,

    n algorithm. I want to find out maximum array values
    for given random array.
    If you just want the greatest value in an array, the simplest thing is to loop through it like this (assuming at least one element in the array):
    int greatest = a[0];
    for (int n = 1; n < a.length; n++) {
        if (a[n] > greatest)
            greatest = a[n];
    sample data:
    Input :
    A[5] = { 3,2,7,4,1}
    //here i'm giving random values in an array
    output :
    1,2,3,4,7
    // here i need output like ascending order
    But if you need to output the array in ascending order you will have to sort the array first. You can use the java.util.Arrays.sort() methods for that purpose:
    int[] a = {3,2,7,4,1};
    java.util.Arrays.sort(a);
    for (int n = 0; n < a.length; n++) {
        if (n > 0) System.out.print(",");
        System.out.print(a[n]);
    }S&oslash;ren

  • Inserted rows are not sorted in ascending order

    Hi,
    in my code when i click on a button (UpdateSchedule) certain rows are displayed in the result table. My problem is the displayed data is not in ascending order I know by keeping sort enable on a particular field we can sort the data as req. But the first time the result which is displayed is not an ascending order , i want to tackle this issue.
    As whatever rows are displayed are not yet committed in database so modifying the query using order by clause also wont solve the issue . This data gets committed on a click of another button(ok).Can this be tackle programmatically ?
    I hope i have given proper elaboration of the issue.
    Regards,
    Anant.

    Reading this from Javadoc and understanding your requirement makes me feel that achieving it would not be easy, or may not be possible at all unless FWK provides some override to these rules.
    Restrictions & limitations:
    Sorting is performed by requerying the database.
    May not work well with view objects (VOs) that contain custom 'expert-mode' SQL. Basically the VO.setOrderByClause() is invoked on the VO using the column name associated with this web bean. An alternative for 'expert-mode' SQL may involve overriding the view object setOrderByClause() and performing custom logic. Note: The orderByParameter will be the column name plus either " desc" or " asc".
    Will not work with view objects that contain the view attribute expression "See the SQL...". To sort on these view attributes, modify the VO XML directly and change the view atttribute expression to the SQL column name.
    Sorting is not allowed for tables that allow inserts.
    Sorting is not supported for tables containing updateable columns (unless the updateable columns are mapped to transient VO columns.) No exception is thrown if the table contains updateable columns, since there may be a rare case when it makes sense, for example a table where the contents fit on one page.
    Modified transient columns will be reset. This is normal and expected behavior.
    Sorting is not supported on the 'Select' column - this is the first column of a table when it contains a checkbox or radio button.
    The table bean will invoke the following two methods on the view object to perform sorting. Debugging can be performed by setting a break on these methods on the VO (or a superclass of the VO.)
    viewObject.setOrderByClause(orderByClause);
    viewObject.executeQuery();
    Thanks

  • Calendar date prompts

    I am on 11.1.1.5. I am creating two calendar date prompts begin date and end date for an analysis. I want to be able to generate some kind error message or warning if the user tries to enter a date smaller than begin date in end date prompt. How can I do this?

    @Amith, no the link would not accurately satisfy the OP's need. What if the user chooses a valid date (i.e., in the allowable date range), but the report produces no records? The customized "No Results" message, would say, "Please choose a valid date value" and would be incorrect.

How can I do this?@user12301184, what you need to do is this:
    1) Create a small report that returns rows if the dates selected in the dashboard prompts are in the valid range, and does not return rows if the dates chosen are outside the range.
    2) In the dashboard, move a Section to the workspace and put your main report there. Click on Section>Properties>Guided Navigation and have OBIEE point to the small report created in step 1 with the radio button "Display when report returns rows" checked off.
    3) Move another Section to the workspace and put a Text object in the Section. Click Section>Properties>Guided Navigation and point to the same report, but this time choose "Dispay if the report returns no rows."
    4) Now in the Text object, put your customized message, "Please choose a valid date range."
    5) Finally, in the report itself, you can customize your "No Results" view to say, "There are no records to display for the date range selected."
    To summarize, according to the OP's criteria, there are two reasons why the report wouldn't show rows: one, specifically because of the invalid date range; and two -- not explicitly stated, but true nonetheless -- when the report itself produces no rows even though the date range is valid.
    My solution takes into account both scenarios. It doesn't give a potential wrong error message like so many applications do when the scenarios are not thought out completely.

  • HT201412 After ios7, My iphone4 has gone dead twice in a time frame of around two months...even though its not happening very often but a two month Old phone going dead just after a New update is not acceptable.probably ios7 still has sum bugs dat need to

    After ios7, My iphone4 has gone dead twice in a time frame of around two months...even though its not happening very often but a two month Old phone going dead just after a New update is not acceptable.probably ios7 still has sum bugs dat need to be fixed...Can this bug expected to be fixed in the next update...

    Hi 1283ar.
    Unfortunately, iOS 7 is too hard to push for the iPhone 4 and therefore has a lot of effects turned off to try to get it to run as smoothly as possible.
    However, it becomes better and better with each update coming but it's hard to do anything about the hardware on an already released phones.
    If you still have trouble or think they are too hard. My tip is, if so, to restore your iPhone 4 and make a clean setup with no iCloud backup. But all your photos in a photostream so you can access it later.

  • How do you date and time stamp iCal entries?  We share an event calendar and need to know when a new event was entered into iCal.

    How do you date and time stamp iCal entries?  We share an event calendar and need to know when a new event was entered into iCal.

    BKBK,
    Thank you for your response. That does adequately cover the
    client-originated sessions, but still leaves the ability I am
    looking for unavailable.
    It did serve to definitively answer my most pressing
    question, however, with this statement:
    Note: ColdFusion cannot create a session if an initiator
    application uses a SendGatewayMessage method to start an
    interaction with a client, such as an SMS user. In this case, the
    sending code must keep track (for example, in a database) of the
    messages it sends and their destinations. When a response event
    arrives, it can look up the origniatorID to determine whether it
    was in response to an outgoing message.
    I will play around with the Application scope to see if there
    might be a workable solution there.

  • Lync 2013 Clients prompting repeatedly for credentials for calendar data from outlook

    Our Exchange server had crashed recently (nothing major) and a reboot of the CAS server resolved the issues. However since then all our domain computers with Lync 2013 clients are prompting for credentials for calendar data from outlook. We would but in
    our domain credentials but it still asks. It would sometime ask once a day or sometimes repeatedly throughout the day.
    I have look on the forums and tried fixes that included: editing IIS Autodiscover and ESW to use NTLM first , rebuilt lyncs cache in app data etc and none seems to resolve the issue. Any help would be appreciated.
    Note: Our Lync 2013 environment is internal only. Only users on domain computers can access the service. We do use a proxy server here for internet but I do not believe Lync is going through the proxy since its internal to our network only. This is NOT happing
    to our users with the Lync 2010 client.

    Please update your Lync client with the latest version.
    You can check the following KB:

  • Prompt For Value inbetween 2 Calendar Dates

    I would like to know how to set up the following in Answers.
    Report should show sales that occurred in between 2 dates. When the report is run I would like the user to be prompted for a Start Date and an End Date. How can I set this up in Answers. I know I have to create 2 prompts for Start Date and End Date but after this what do I do.
    Thanks

    HI pass the presentation variables for the startdate as 'startdate' and for the End date 'enddate' and save the prompt. In the report level select the column date(the date which you have joined)
    and use the filter for that date and use the between operator and add the two presentation variables startdate and enddate and save the report. Now the report will be filtered based on the dates you have selected.
    check the link below here they have passed server variable for the date prompts but you can use presentation variable.

  • Date Prompt using Calendar view

    Hi,
    My requirement is to filter data for a date column using Prompt. I want to show Prompt as a calendar for the date column. Data type for that column is "Timestamp" in Physical Layer and I changed it into "Date" data type in BMM layer.
    I have created a prompt and after selecting a date from the calendar, it throwed the following error
    "A date value was expected (received "2010-09-01 00:00:00")."
    To have a try, I used following case statement in prompt Column:
    case when 1=0 then "Booking Date Calendar"."Calendar Date" else TIMESTAMP '2009-01-01 00:00:00' END
    Its taking "01/01/2009 12:00:00 AM" after selecting date from this modified prompt,but the data i have in date column is "1/1/2009".
    I tried multiple ways so that i can see results, but i am not able to pass the correct value to the report from prompt.
    Can you please tell me how to solve this problem?

  • Showing prompt value in report - Need Urgent help

    Hi All,
    I have created a query that has a prompt (it is not the dashboard prompt) that has " in Between" operator. It is on date column. When i am generating report by passing the prompt value the data is coming properly.
    I have downloaded the report in excel format and it is coming perfect. But i am not able to provide the data that he has selected in the prompt.
    Like on top of page i need to show - The report is genrated for Date1 to Date2.
    And then the data.
    Thanks in advance for any clue. I am not able to figure out how to do this.
    Thanks
    Ashok

    Hi Ashok,
    It seems it's possible, but not with the Filters view... but with Narrative View....
    If you have Calendar Date (which contains all dates till today) column in your model, then... if you want to show only the date prompt values on top even though you have all other prompts...
    For above mentioned criteria... you can't show only one date using filters view...
    Now... go with Narrative View,
    In that particular report add Calendar Date column 2 times...
    On one column apply Max(date) and on another column apply Min(Date)....
    Hide those...
    Now note down the positions of these above 2 columns in criteria... say 6 & 7... respectively...
    Now you write in narrative view...
    Selected Date between @ and @6
    So... based on the dates you selected.. the calendar date populate with the values and would hold the max and min i.e. what... selected values of your prompts...
    So by using this.. you can only show.. one prompt.... not all the prompts which you have...
    May helpful to you when you have .. Calendar Date only... remember ;)
    Thanks & Regards
