Putting a condition on alias name

Hi there,
Out of curiosity, is there any other way through which we can put forth a condition on Alias name instead of column name in a table.
One way this can be done is :
select * from (Select ename "Employee NAME" from emp) where "Employee Name" is not null
Could it be somehow re-written so that it doesn't invlove braces?

Hi,
No.
When you assign an alias in a query, the only place in that same query where you can reference that alias is in the ORDER BY clause.
SELECT    ename   AS employee_name
FROM      scott.emp
WHERE     ename   <= 'N'        -- Must use real column name here
ORDER BY employee_name         -- Alias is okay here
;To use the alias in the WHERE clause (or anywhere else, except the ORDER BY clause) you have to use a sub-query, as in your example.

How to sort the members by alias names

I am trying to create dimension build rule whicl will sort the dimension members in an ascending order, but it has to be based on the alias name instead of the member name.
I have tried both Parent-CHild and Generation reference but it doesn't work.
For example
for the city members PSE ( alias name Purchase), and USALB ( alias Albany) needs to be sorted by alias names
the current order is
PSE(Purchase)
USALB(albany)
but the requirement is to be
USALB( Albany)
PSE(Purchase)

Even with presorting the input, you still have work to do. By default, Essbase will add new members to the bottom of the list of membrers, it does not insert them into an existing hierarchy in the right places. If your trying to update existing hierarchies and are going the SQL route, you will need two rules (or 1 rule and a flat file). You also need to specify remove unspecified as part of the dimension build process.
HAve a dummy input (either sql or file) that gets loaded the first time. IT will basically wipe out all the members of the dimension, then your second rule (or same rule calling your SQL) can reload the dimension sorted in alias order.
IT is important that these two rules be done together (either in MaxL using comasin a single statement) or in a BSO cube in the outline before the outline is saved. Otherwise you will have deleted any data that existed in the database. It would be impartant that your SQL also pulls all members (including any special members)

You say you are going to change the stored procedure. That is not necessary, you could put an order by clause in your sql extract statement

SQL query alias names errors with dynamic lists

Hullo,
Problem:
- Made a query form book database. Have authors in separate table with unique ID's referring to them on book table.
- Query fetches author name in "Surname, Firstname initial.Secondfirstname initial" format, --> like "Bukowski, H.C" and giving that combo alias name in SQL like "AS 'author'"...
- Dynamic list works fine at start, but when ordered from detail table back to the mainlisting, it does make an error with SQL stating "unknown column 'author' in where clause"
That must be because the script looks for "author" column from the original table yeah, but how can I solve this? Any ideas? Does this mean that Alias names for columns are not possible or is there something i've missed?
Any ideas, suggestions?
Thanks,
KimmoK

Hi Kimmo,
ADDT´s dynamic lists can handle alias columns fine to my experience, but I reckon that you most probably applied the "CONCAT(...) AS author" query modification after having generated the list, and the list´s internal WHERE clause seems to have no clue of this alias column.
You can get an idea about using alias columns in Dynamic Lists in my tutorial "Dynamic Lists: exploring the Filter Conditions": http://www.guenter-schenk.com/tutorials/tutorial.php?id=6
Can you please post the list´s code on your server as text file (e.g. code.txt) and provide a link to this file ?

Flexible column alias name?

Hi
Is that a way to assign the column alias name at run time.
Example: I want to sums a column and label it based on the current year.
For 2007, I should have:
SELECT
‘A’
‘B’,
‘C’,
sum(RESERVE_AMT) AS RESERVE_AMT_2007
FROM table_name
For 2006 I should have:
SELECT
‘A’
‘B’,
‘C’,
sum(RESERVE_AMT) AS RESERVE_AMT_2006
FROM table_name
For 2005 I should have:
SELECT
‘A’
‘B’,
‘C’,
sum(RESERVE_AMT) AS RESERVE_AMT_2005
FROM table_name
Etc.
For some reason I need a sql (something like above) in the procedure to be run in each year and populate a column labeled the current year concatenated with a fix string such as RESERVE_AMT_2007.
Thanks.

I've just modify your code and see what it shows --

Push Notifications to end users and Conditional Success Screen Name ?

Hi,
Scenario: PO Approval
Description: I am developing a PO approval application with 3 levels of approval. The HWC application is based on the push notification ( DCN with payload ). When a PO ( Purchase Order ) is created/modified the end user will get the notification. Once the first 2 levels of approval is done from the mobile devices the notification should reach the 3rd level for approval. And Conditional Based Users only View there Profiles, If an User1 Approved PO Approval then only User2 Will get Push Notification but for User3 it will not Visible, Oncethe User2 Approved then Only User3 will get Push Notifications and these 3 Profiles have to be log in Based on Condition Name & Conditional Success Screen Name.
Question: How to set to which user the notification should reach. In the "to" field of JSON when I am providing "supAdmin" means the notification will reach all the devices who has the application. Once a PO is created the notification should reach only to user in the first level. Once he approves the PO, then only it should reach to the user in the 2nd level. And finally 3rd level.
Here Conditional Name is the best way to Log In or is there any other way to show the User based Log in Details, Because Here I am showing a List of Items Based On Log In, and Based On Log In user Has to view there List of Products and Status.
How to manage this situation.
Midhun VP can you please help me on this.
Thanks,
Vamsi K

Yes, DNS is is fundamental for networks, even for Windows networks. The DNS is working well for the existing Windows network and there are no problems in distributing certificates etc.
There are more than 150 users and 180 devices on the network without DNS problems.
I don't know how to discover a DNS problem... Windows works well.
DNS resolves fine... dig does it for "a" records and "ptr" records. nslookup resolves, too.
When the problem is a faulty DNS, why does the usage of users/devices from OD work with Profile Manager?
Renaming and/or migrating the ActiveDirectory is not possible. First, I want to be sure that there is a faulty DNS.
The .local TLD is not optimal for Bonjour/mDNS but I can't believe that there is no workaround

You can not change the date of birth on the account. Apple makes that clear up front when the account is created.
The only way to "fix" this is going to be for him to create a new account with the correct information. Any apps purchased with the old one will need to be re-purchased with the new account. They can not be transferred.

Any ides on this or any post are there prior this .
Thanks in Advance.

Rao,
Thanks for the info! It is strange that despite having alias name report is populating member name. It is not the first time strange things hapend with FR.
Can you please check if you are connecting to same data source where you see alias name? Can you pull alias name from SmartView?

SQL query - Alias name (value) as parameter to an Oracle function

Hi,
I have a sql query something like
Select tbl1.valueA, tbl1.valueB, tbl2.valueX, MAX(CASE tbl2.valueY = 'XX' THEN tbl2.valueZ END) AS "ValueZ header", Function(tbl1.valueB, tbl2.valueX, "valueZ header")
FROM table1 tbl1
JOIN table2 tbl2 ON tbl1.id = tbl2.tbl1id
WHERE ...
my problem is that I need the value from MAX statement as parameter to the function and I have tried to use the alias name (valueZ header) but this is not working. I guess because of some syntax error. Can I use alias name as parameter into the function at all - if - how should I do this?

You could repeat the entire MAX (CASE ...) expression as the 3rd argumnet to your function, or you could compute it once in a sub-query, then reference the column alias as often as you like in the super-query, like this:
WITH     got_valuez_header     AS
     Select tbl1.valueA
     ,     tbl1.valueB
     ,     tbl2.valueX
     ,     MAX ( CASE
                        WEHN tbl2.valueY = 'XX'     -- Don't forget the keyword WHEN
                  THEN      tbl2.valueZ
                END
              )          AS "ValueZ header"
     FROM         table1     tbl1
     JOIN         table2     tbl2     ON     tbl1.id     = tbl2.tbl1id
     WHERE          ...
     GROUP BY     ...
Select tbl1.valueA
,     tbl1.valueB
,     tbl2.valueX
,     "ValueZ header"
,     Function_x ( tbl1.valueB     -- FUNCTION is not a good name for a function
             , tbl2.valueX
             , "ValueZ header"     -- Case-sensitive
FROM    got_valuez_header
;

I this possible anyother way to use this Day1<br>06/09/2005 alias name without using " "

Millions of thanks in advacne..

if your alias name for a column contains spaces, it needs to be enclosed in double-quotes.
is there a real need to have such a column heading? what is the problem in enclosing the alias name in double-quotes?
SQL*Plus has no problem displaying such a column heading? what issue are you encountering?

Live view putting a file with no name

So i have a problem (don't know if it's a problem really, but at least an annoyance) with the Live View and Preview in browser features.
When use them, the file transfer window pops up (even if i have told it to stay "hidden") showing the following:
Started: 29.5.2013 15.47
index.php - same - not transferred
Connections:Raspberrypi.php - same - not transferred
styles:common.css - same - not transferred
- error occurred - Access denied. The file may not exist locally, may be open in another program, or there could be a local permission problem.
File activity incomplete. 1 file(s) or folder(s) were not completed.
Files skipped: 3
Files with errors: 1
Finished: 29.5.2013 15.47
So the weird lines are those marked with red. It looks like its trying to put a file with no name or extensions at all - and i don't think i have such files on my site. Also the permissions are correct on both the server and my Mac.
My web browser opens up and shows the site perfectly, and if I'm using the Live View, the site shows up well too. The thing is every time I hit F5 to refresh, i have to close the file transfer window. Annoying.
I don't know if it matters but I'm using a Raspberry Pi as my home web server. It has Apache2, PHP 5, MySQL and vsftpd running, and I have been able to use them with no problem earlier.
Hopefully someone knows what I am doing wrong here...
Thanks in adnvance!

Have you enabled Automatic Upload on SAVE? I never FTP files on Save. Way too much risk of error and it takes focus away from my work which is very distracting. See screenshot.

How to specify alias name in system property while making 2way SSL con ?

Hi All,
I am tring to run a java client with 2way SSL which uses CAC card as keystore for the client. I have addded the following system property in my client program to make it work and change the java.security file to add pcks11 provider.
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType", "pkcs11");
System.setProperty("javax.net.debug", "ssl");
The program works fine and handshake is successfully done . But the problem is when i have more than one trusted certificate in the CAC card, it take a default certificate. I want to specify the certificate that should be used to do the client auth maybe specify the alias name . I didnt find any system property to do so.
Please let me know how to specify alias name as system property so that the 2way SSL used the specified alias for the client auth or is there any other way to specify the alias name. As in case i acccess the server URL from any browser i get a certificate selection prompt and the connection is established with the selected certificate.
Thanks in advanced,
Ruhul

I didn't find any system property to do so.There isn't one.
Please let me know how to specify alias name as system propertyYou can't.
You would have to write a custom KeyManager. See the JSSE Reference Guide.
