Query Jump-To functionality

Hi experts,
I created a summary query with 1 mandatory variable and a detailed query with 5 mandatory selection variables. Then I created a sender receiver assignment between the two. When I open my query and jump to the detailed query, it does not show anything and the detailed query does not open. on a normal scenario, the selection screen for the detailed query would pop up for the user to enter the values. Any idea why it would be doing that?
Thank you
IA

hi,
When ever u gor RRI.....The Variable will be passed from the First Query to the second query....
Try this .....
so make sure that the second Query does not have any mandatory variables ........and the variable in first query is in second
query also but optional or in defalut view..........
If u want to have default variables in second query then make them in first query also ........

Jump to Function not working for header items

Hi Experts,
I have a query using jump to function to access R3 tranaction,
It has issue jump to transaction MB51
Item Data:Material, plant, ...
header data: posting date,...
All settings in RSBBS are correct, but the posting date is not passed onto R3 report.
I have tried similar transaction MR51and posting date can be passed to R3.
any idears?

This is solution:
In ERP system.
Set MEMORYID in table MMIM_REP_CUST for fiekd BUDAT.
Value for MEMORYID have to be from TPRA table and value for DTG upper than current timestamp
After this recall mb51 and set this value in RSBBS assignment in BW system.
Thanks Nikolay Ryzhov for this solution.

A query regarding synchronised functions, using shared object

Hi all.
I have this little query, regarding the functions that are synchronised, based on accessing the lock to the object, which is being used for synchronizing.
Ok, I will clear myself with the following example :
class First
int a;
static int b;
public void func_one()
synchronized((Integer) a)
{ // function logic
} // End of func_one
public void func_two()
synchronized((Integer) b)
{ / function logic
} // End of func_two
public static void func_three()
synchronized((Integer) a)
{ // function logic
} // End of func_three, WHICH IS ACTUALLY NOT ALLOWED,
// just written here for completeness.
public static void func_four()
synchronized((Integer) b)
{ / function logic
} // End of func_four
First obj1 = new First();
First obj2 = new First();
Note that the four functions are different on the following criteria :
a) Whether the function is static or non-static.
b) Whether the object on which synchronization is based is a static, or a non-static member of the class.
Now, first my-thoughts; kindly correct me if I am wrong :
a) In case 1, we have a non-static function, synchronized on a non-static object. Thus, effectively, there is no-synchronisation, since in case obj1 and obj2 happen to call the func_one at the same time, obj1 will obtain lock for obj1.a; and obj2 will obtain lock to obj2.a; and both can go inside the supposed-to-be-synchronized-function-but-actually-is-not merrily.
Kindly correct me I am wrong anywhere in the above.
b) In case 2, we have a non-static function, synchronized on a static object. Here, again if obj1, and obj2 happen to call the function at the same time, obj1 will try to obtain lock for obj1.a; while obj2 will try to obtain lock for obj2.a. However, since obj1.a and obj2.a are the same, thus we will indeed obtain sychronisation.
Kindly correct me I am wrong anywhere in the above.
c) In case 3, we have a static function , synchronized on a non-static object. However, Java does not allow functions of this type, so we may safely move forward.
d) In case 4, we have a static function, synchronized on a static object.
Here, again if obj1, and obj2 happen to call the function at the same time, obj1 will try to obtain lock for obj1.a; while obj2 will try to obtain lock for obj2.a. However, since obj1.a and obj2.a are the same, thus we will indeed obtain sychronisation. But we are only partly done for this case.
First, Kindly correct me I am wrong anywhere in the above.
Now, I have a query : what happens if the call is made in a classically static manner, i.e. using the statement "First.func_four;".
Another query : so far we have been assuming that the only objects contending for the synchronized function are obj1, and obj2, in a single thread. Now, consider this, suppose we have the same reference obj1, in two threads, and the call "obj1.func_four;" happens to occur at the same time from each of these threads. Thus, we have obj1 rying to obtain lock for obj1.a; and again obj1 trying to obtain lock for obj1.a, which are the same locks. So, if obj1.a of the first thread obtains the lock, then it will enter the function no-doubt, but the call from the second thread will also succeed. Thus, effectively, our synchronisation is broken.
Or am I being dumb ?
Looking forward to replies..
Ashutosh

a) In case 1, we have a non-static function, synchronized on a non-static object. Thus, effectively, there is no-synchronisationThere is no synchronization between distinct First objects, but that's what you specified. Apart from the coding bug noted below, there would be synchronization between different threads using the same instance of First.
b) In case 2, we have a non-static function, synchronized on a static object. Here, again if obj1, and obj2 happen to call the function at the same time, obj1 will try to obtain lock for obj1.a; while obj2 will try to obtain lock for obj2.a.obj1/2 don't call methods or try to obtain locks. The two different threads do that. And you mean First.b, not obj1.b and obj2.b, but see also below.
d) In case 4, we have a static function, synchronized on a static object. Here, again if obj1, and obj2 happen to call the function at the same time, obj1 will try to obtain lock for obj1.a; while obj2 will try to obtain lock for obj2.a.Again, obj1/2 don't call methods or try to obtain locks. The two different threads do that. And again, you mean First.b. obj1.b and obj2.b are the same as First.b. Does that make it clearer?
Now, I have a query : what happens if the call is made in a classically static manner, i.e. using the statement "First.func_four;".That's what happens in any case whether you write obj1.func_four(), obj2.func)four(), or First.func_four(). All these are identical when func_four(0 is static.
Now, consider this, suppose we have the same reference obj1, in two threads, and the call "obj1.func_four;" happens to occur at the same time from each of these threads. Thus, we have obj1 rying to obtain lock for obj1.aNo we don't, we have a thread trying to obtain the lock on First.b.
and again obj1 trying to obtain lock for obj1.aYou mean obj2 and First.b, but obj2 doesn't obtain the lock, the thread does.
which are the same locks. So, if obj1.a of the first thread obtains the lock, then it will enter the function no-doubt, but the call from the second thread will also succeed.Of course it won't. Your reasoning here makes zero sense..Once First.b is locked it is locked. End of story.
Thus, effectively, our synchronisation is broken.No it isn't. The second thread will wait on the same First.b object that the first thread has locked.
However in any case you have a much bigger problem here. You're autoboxing your local 'int' variable to a possibly brand-new Integer object every call, so there may be no synchronization at all.
You need:
Object a = new Object();
static Object b = new Object();

SQL query (pl/sql function body returning query) performance issue

I create my report in building my sql instruction with ( SQL Query pl/sql function body returning sql query );
My report take more than 20 seconds however if i did a cut and paste with the sql code in TOAD the same sql take 1 second.
To try to discover the source of the problem; i take the sql generated by the function and i create another report ( sql query ) this new report take 2 seconds.
My query is very big 25,000 characters with database link.
What is the difference between SQL-quey and sql-query(pl/sql function body returning sql query)
Thanks
Marc

Marc,
Firstly...don't compare the timings from Toad, since often Toad only fetches the first few records for you (i.e. it pages them).
Secondly....the database link could be a factor here, but without seeing your query it's too hard to say.
Can you post the query somewhere (on a webserver say)?

Onkar,
I don't appreciate you posting this question in several forums at the same time.
If I would know you also posted this on Asktom, I wouldn't even have bothered.
As to your 'issue':
First of all: somehow cursor_sharing MUST have been set to FORCE. Oracle is a predictable system, not a fruitmachine.
Your statement the '0' is replaced by a bind variable anyway is simply false. If you really believe it is not false, SUBMIT a SR.
But your real issue is not Oracle: it is your 'application', which is a mess anyway. Allowing for alphanumeric numbers is a really bad idea.
Right now you are already putting workaround on workaround on workaround on workaround.
Issue is the application: it is terminal., and you either need to kill it, or to replace it.

SQL Query (pl/sql function body returning Sql query)

Hi All,
I have created a region of "SQL Query (pl/sql function body returning Sql query)" type and it is working fine , but when I am migrating(export /import) this application from development to systest environment ,
It gives error for this region :
Error ERR-1101 Unable to process function body returning query.
OK
ORA-06550: line 1, column 52: PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'FU_TRADE_REPORT_QUERY' ORA-06550: line 1, column 45: PL/SQL: Statement ignored
Any pointer ...why this is happening.
Thanks
Dikshit

If your function is a stored function that is called from within APEX (function body not coded into the app itself), have you made sure that the function has been created and compiles ok prior to installing your apex app.
If there are some dependency issues between other PL/SQL units or database objects that are causing your function not to be compiled, you apex install will fail as you are trying to reference an uncompelled bit of pl/sql.
Let me know how you get on

It looks like the query string you are trying to pass back exceeds the 32K limit for a varchar. Where this is happening is kind of difficult to tell as it could be any number of points, and also depends on what you are passing into the process via page items.
I would first try to establish what combination of page items causes this error to occur. Then, starting from the bottom and working your way backwards, I would start 'switching off' some of the items you use to build your query until it breaks again, thus establishing which part is leading to the error.
Also, I'm not sure what :P10_STMT is doing (are you maybe using this for visiblity of the query created)?

SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query) when using to_char

we are trying to build a report page of Type SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query).
our query is so simple, we need to extract the month from the recording_date column.
declare
l_query varchar2(1000);
begin
l_query:='select to_char(recording_date,'MM')from re_productive';
return l_query;
end;
but we are having the following problem for this query
Function returning SQL query: 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.
(ORA-06550: line 4, column 42: PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "MON" when expecting one of the following: . ( * @ % & = - + ; < / > at in is mod remainder not rem <> or != or ~= >= <= <> and or like between || multiset member SUBMULTISET_ The symbol ". was inserted before "MON" to continue.)
Notes:
1-the query is correct and it was tested under Toad and SQL Plus.
2- we tried Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only) option but we get the same problem.
any quick help please.

Hi
You haven't escaped your quotes in the string. Try this...
DECLARE

SQL Query (PL/SQL Function Body returning SQL query) doesn't return any row

I have a region with the following type:
SQL Query (PL/SQL Function Body returning SQL query).
In a search screen the users can enter different numbers, separated by an ENTER.
I want to check these numbers by replacing the ENTER, which is CHR(13) || CHR(10) I believe, with commas. And then I can use it like this: POD IN (<<text>>).
It's something like this:
If (:P30_POD Is Not Null) Then
v_where := v_where || v_condition || 'POD IN (''''''''||REPLACE(''' || :P30_POD || ''', CHR(13) || CHR(10), '','')||'''''''''')';
v_condition := ' AND ';
End If;
But the query doesn't return any rows.
I tried to reproduce it in Toad:
select * from asx_worklistitem
where
POD IN (''''||REPLACE('541449200000171813'||CHR(13) || CHR(10)||'541449206006341366', CHR(13) || CHR(10), ''',''')||'''')
==> This is the query that does't return any rows
select (''''||REPLACE('541449200000171813'||CHR(13) || CHR(10)||'541449206006341366', CHR(13) || CHR(10), ''',''')||'''')
from dual;
==> This returns '541449200000171813','541449206006341366'
select * from asx_worklistitem
where pod in ('541449200000171813','541449206006341366');
==> and when I copy/paste this in the above query, it does return my rows.
So why does my first query doesn't work?
Doe anyone have any idea?
Kind regards,
Geert

Thanks for the help.
I made it work, but via the following code:
If (:P30_POD Is Not Null) Then
v_pods := REPLACE(:P30_POD, CHR(13) || CHR(10));
v_where := v_where || v_condition || 'POD IN (';
v_counter := 1;
WHILE (v_counter < LENGTH(v_pods)) LOOP
v_pod := SUBSTR(v_pods, v_counter, 18);
IF (v_counter <> 1) THEN
v_where := v_where || ',';
END IF;
v_where := v_where || '''' || v_pod || '''';
v_counter := v_counter + 18;
END LOOP;
v_where := v_where || ')';
v_condition := ' AND ';
End If;But now I want to make an update of all the records that correspond to this search criteria. I can give in a status via a dropdownlist and that I want to update all the records that correspond to one of these POD's with that status.
For a region you can build an SQL query via PL/SQL, but for a process you only have a PL/SQL block. Is the only way to update all these records by making a loop and make an update for every POD that is specified.
Because I think this will have a lot of overhead.
I would like to make something like a multi row update in an updateable report, but I want to specify the status from somewhere else. Is this possible?

Query Jump problem

Hello,
I have query jump from Q1 to Q2. The result in the Q1 is in EUR. when I jump from Q1 to Q2 it is automatically filling Currency filled with USD and key figures are showing NOT APPLICABLE DATA. Once you remove the Currenyc USD then it is showing the correct values.
I tried to run the Q2 directly and it is woring fine. strange thing it is not working fine from Q1 Jump to Q2.
I also re-created the connection between Q1 and Q2. still no use.
Can anyone suggest?
Thanks
K

Oscar,
Q2 as Currency in Free Chars.... I removed it from the Q2itself and it works fine. but I am unable to understand the reason.
Even though this works - I need to give reason for removing it, otherwise client will not allow to do this,
Any ideas...please
Thanks

BULK COLLECT in select query inside a function

My query is :

SELECT tab_a_row(col1,col2,col3) BULK COLLECT INTO tab_a_recs FROM table_a;
open rv for select * from table(tab_a_recs);
return rv;
end;
Function created successfully. and i exec this from sql plus using

Well, of course. Java has to know what the sql projection is. How else will it know how many columns there are and their datatypes.
But that is true no matter what method you use.

But if i use a PLSQL COLLECTION TYPE (nested tables ) , then i can get output as ,

No - using the 'table' function mean you are calling a PIPELINED function.
This is a sample of a PIPELINED procedure.
-- type to match emp record
create or replace type emp_scalar_type as object
(EMPNO NUMBER(4) ,
   ENAME VARCHAR2(10),
   JOB VARCHAR2(9),
   MGR NUMBER(4),
   HIREDATE DATE,
   SAL NUMBER(7, 2),
   COMM NUMBER(7, 2),
   DEPTNO NUMBER(2)
-- table of emp records
create or replace type emp_table_type as table of emp_scalar_type
-- pipelined function
create or replace function get_emp( p_deptno in number )
return emp_table_type
PIPELINED
as
   TYPE EmpCurTyp IS REF CURSOR RETURN emp%ROWTYPE;
    emp_cv EmpCurTyp;
    l_rec emp%rowtype;
begin
    open emp_cv for select * from emp where deptno = p_deptno;
    loop
      fetch emp_cv into l_rec;
      exit when (emp_cv%notfound);
      pipe row( emp_scalar_type( l_rec.empno, LOWER(l_rec.ename),
          l_rec.job, l_rec.mgr, l_rec.hiredate, l_rec.sal, l_rec.comm, l_rec.deptno ) );
    end loop;

end;
select * from table(get_emp(20))Or your function could return a collection like the example from this thread this morning.

Sql query(PL/SQL function body return SQL query) with in(x,y,z) condition

Hello,
I've set up a region definition of type "SQL Query(PL/SQL function body return SQL query). In my query I make use of an "in" condition. When I populate :P755_INC_BARG_UNIT with a value of 0F (no quotes), I get the correct count. However, when I set :P755_INC_BARG_UNIT to 0F, 0E I get an invalid count. What do I have to set the page item to?
When running the query in TOAD, and setting :P755_INC_BARG_UNIT to the string inside the brackets (0F, 0E) I get the proper count.
The code I use is shown below. Any help would be appreciated,

Alex,
try something like:
DECLARE
v_sql VARCHAR2(32767);
BEGIN
v_sql := <YOUR_SQL_STATEMENT_WITH_P755_INC_BARG_UNIT_IN_IT>;
v_sql := REPLACE(v_sql, ':P755_INC_BARG_UNIT',:P755_INC_BARG_UNIT);
RETURN v_sql;
END; But before doing it read this:

After reading you will be able to find the best solution yourself.

What is the best way to Optimize a SQL query : call a function or do a join?

Hi, I want to know what is the best way to optimize a SQL query, call a function inside the SELECT statement or do a simple join?

Hi,
If you're even considering a join, then it will probably be faster. As Justin said, it depends on lots of factors.
A user-defined function is only necessary when you can't figure out how to do something in pure SQL, using joins and built-in functions.
You might choose to have a user-defined function even though you could get the same result with a join. That is, you realize that the function is slow, but you believe that the convenience of using a function is more important than better performance in that particular case.
