Query regarding Min function with Date

Dear All,
I have written query as follows but it is giving me error message.
Selection CityCode, CityName, Min(Date)
from Entry
I want to write a query which should generate minimum date of transactions of city. There are about 50 cities in the Entry table and against each city there are thousands of records, I want to display only the oldest date against each city with its code. In the out put there should 50 rows as there are 50 cities and oldest (min) date. Can any one please help on this SQL.
Thanks

Do you want just min date in the table or need grouping by citycode and city name also?
If just min date of the table is needed, use row_number analytic function to get the min date in the table.

How to use aggregate function with Date

Hi All,
I have a group of date from that is it possible to Max and Min of date.
I have tried like this but its errored out <?MIN (current-group()/CREATION_DATE)?>.
I have also tried like this but it doesnt works
<?xdoxslt:minimum(CREATION_DATE)?>
Is it possible to use aggregate function with date values.
Thanks & Regards
Srikkanth

Hi KAVI PRIYA,
if date is not in cannonical format, how can we change it in BI publisher, then how to calcualte minimum and as well as maximum.
please advise me,
Thanks,

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();

How to execute a function with date parameter as an input?

It's hard for me to say what you're doing wrong when I don't know what you're doing. Post a complete test script that people can run to re-create the problem and test their ideas. Include a function definition, CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for any of your own tables (if necessary), and the results you want to get from that data, as well as your query.

Writing query to Oracle DB with DATE field in it.

When I try to execute the following query on Oracle DB I get an exception. I know that the problem is with Date representation on the query string. Please, if anyone knows how to make it work help me.
query = "INSERT INTO MYTABLE (NAME , BIRTHDAY ) VALUES ('" + person.getName() +" ' , " + person.getBirthday() + " )";
statment.executeUpdate(query);
getBirthday() returns java.sql.Date object.
Please, please, help to work it out!

Thank you, very much.
I've put the record into DB!!!! Hurray!
But now I have another problem. I've got a ResultSet & I'd like to extract the DATE from it. But how?
The Exception text states that the name of the field (Birthday) is incorrect.
My code:
Date birthday = resultSet.getDate("Birthday");
All other fields are perfectly well extracted, but they are Strings.

the problem i have is that i want to filter my results accoring to the date provided by the user. i want it to be dynamic query.
by now, what i do is to edit the docdate in the function in order to get the desired results. this is not what i want.
could you please help me on this way in order to let the user to input the date?if i add the [%] in the query, it does not bring me the right results

i have already edited the function to
set ANSI_NULLS ON
set QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

could you please how to edit the query as well?
i have added the following code and it comes up with the right itemcode but the quantity does not work
DECLARE
@ITEMCODE AS NVARCHAR(10),
@STARTDATE1 as DATETIME,
@ENDDATE1 AS DATETIME
SET @STARTDATE1=(SELECT MAX(T0.DOCDATE) FROM oinv t0 WHERE T0.DOCDATE='2010-11-01')

Query regarding XI interaction with database

Hi all,
I have got the Oracle database and SAP R/3 system
Is it possible that through JDBC adapter ,
a) Direct fetching of data from database
b) Data should come in XI and after mapping should be
 posted in SAP R/3 .i.e complete automated process
c) Is it possible to put direct query statement in XI
 while connection with database through JDBC adapter
 E.g For fetching the vendor data from database
 Select * from ....
Thanks in advance
Shikha Jain

Shikha,
a) Direct fetching of data from database
In the JDBC Sender adapter you have to mention the SQL Query.
b) Data should come in XI and after mapping should be
posted in SAP R/3 .i.e complete automated process
This is what XI does. There is no manual intervention needed.
c) Is it possible to put direct query statement in XI
while connection with database through JDBC adapter
E.g For fetching the vendor data from database
Select * from ....
your question a is same. You can execute a SQL statement in the Adapter which polls the database in the intervals you mention. It could be a SELECT or EXEC PROC etc.

Query regarding sys_context function

Hello
I have created report with custom folder and parameters are passed using sys_context function. I have few queries regarding this.
1) How to see actual sql query executed by report. I can see from discover administorator - sql inspector. But it is not showing which is value passed for sys_context parameter. If want to see query with full parameter then what to do? I have also tried to look it from toad - session browser, there also it is not showing parameter value.
2) If anything special needed to manage sys_context variable. i.e i have executed report with parameter 1 = A and now next time executed with parameter 1 =b. Will it takes proper value, i mean sys_context parameter will be refreshed itself, or need to do somehting..
Please help me out.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
How to see actual sql query executed by reportSYS_CONTEXT returns values from a namespace. Normally you create a local namespace and values in this namespace can only be retrieved by the session. So there is no way to see the values for a Discoverer session from Toad. Normally, one would create a Discoverer report that returns all the values in your namespace that you can use for debugging.
If anything special needed to manage sys_context variableNo, once you have set the context in the namespace using DBMS_SESSION.set_context then it is there for the rest of the session.

How to use MAX() function with date field

Hi Frzz,
I have created a Graphical calculation view in which i have multiple records for each employee with different dates. But my requirement is to take the records which have maximum date.
I have converted the date into Integer and applied the MAX() function. But still am getting multiple records.
Is there is any other way we can achieve this requirement in Graphical Calculation view?? Your suggestion will really help me.
Thank you.
Krishna.

Hmm... what have you tried out so far?
Look, I took the effort and created a little example, just for you
Assume we have a table that contains the logon dates of users.
Every line contains the logon date and some info on the user.
Very much like a not-normalized log file could look like.
Now, the output we want is: one line per user with the most current logon time.
Not too difficult:
1. Have a aggregation node that gives you the distinct user details - one line for every user:
2. Have another aggregation node that gives you the last (MAX) logon date per user:
Finally you do a 1:1 join on the USER_ID and map the result to the output.
Easy as pie

Query to group values with date

Dear all,
I have a table tdate with 13 columns with one column named trandate
with value like "11/07/2008 18:00:19"
NOw I want to retrieve values from the table like
select count(*) from trandate where where ttype = '081' and T_FILE like 'monT%';
I want to count the records for every month like
jan-2009 - 120 (120 is the number of records satifying the above condition and belong to the period jan 2009 (derived from trandate column)
feb-2009 - 150 (150 is the number of records satifying the above condition and belong to the period feb 2009 (derived from trandate column)
How can i rewrite the query
Thanks
Kai
Edited by: KaiS on Feb 1, 2011 4:23 AM

Something like this?
SELECT TO_CHAR(trandate,'mon-YYYY') AS trandate
     , cnt
FROM
        SELECT trandate
             , COUNT(*) AS cnt
        FROM   trandate
        WHERE ttype = '081'
        AND    t_file LIKE 'monT%'
        GROUP BY trandate
        ORDER BY 1
)If that doesn't work out then please post:
1. Oracle version (SELECT * FROM V$VERSION)
2. Sample data in the form of CREATE / INSERT statements.
3. Expected output
4. Explanation of expected output (A.K.A. "business logic")
5. Use \ tags for #2 and #3. See FAQ (Link on top right side) for details.

CAML Query returning all items with date condition

HI,
I have a problem doing a query with CAML over the elements of a calendar in SharePoint 2013
I just want to retrieve all items, which have been modified on a particular date. But below query returns all items from the Calendar.
Any suggestion how to get specific items from the calendar. The same issue exists for start date and end date.
var oWebsite = clientContext.get_web();
this.collList = oWebsite.get_lists();
var camlQuery1 = new SP.CamlQuery();
camlQuery1.set_viewXml(
'<query><Where>'+
'<Eq>'+
'<FieldRef Name=\'Modified\' IncludeTimeValue=\'TRUE\'/>' +
'<Value Type=\'DateTime\'>2014-02-24T12:00:00Z</Value>'+
'</Eq>'+
'</Where></query>');
this.collListItem1 = oList.getItems(camlQuery1);
clientContext.load(collListItem1);

Firstly try to make this change in your query and see if that helps
camlQuery1.set_viewXml(
'<View><Query><Where>'+
'<Eq>'+
'<FieldRef Name=\'Modified\' IncludeTimeValue=\'TRUE\'/>' +
'<Value Type=\'DateTime\'>2014-02-24T12:00:00Z</Value>'+
