Retrieving field from original records based on current related records transaction date
Post Author: Barbara W
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
I've been working with Crystal for awhile but am having trouble figuring out how to tell CR what I need to pull from a ledger table I am working with.
I need to identify fees and costs written off. However, once they are written off, the code on the new transaction that identifies fees and costs changes to WOFF. The write off transaction dates I need are in YTD 2007, however, the original transaction in my example is in 2006.
Therefore, I need to pull orginal record of fees, orginal record of costs, then write off record of each for a total of 4 records based on transaction date of the write off records
cust #
invoice #
trans date
credit id
index #
amount
code
1458
1195
7/11/06
458
250
FEES
1458
1195
7/11/06
459
2.52
COST
1458
1195
2/26/07
458
460
250
WOFF
1458
1195
2/26/07
459
461
2.52
WOFF
The credit id matches the index of the original transaction, however, it is on another record. What I am trying to do is pull any record with a credit id, however, I also need to know the original code that goes with that record I.e. FEES/COST.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Have you tried a subreport? Try creating a subreport and link it with index# to credit id (if you can). This way, for every main record if there is a corresponding subreport record with a credit id, you can retrieve the required information. Otherwise, if you cannot link it as mentioned above, then link it on Cust# but in the main report fetch those with a null credit id and in the subreport fetch those records where credit is not null. You might have to play around with it a bit. Hope it helps!

Choose field from joined table based on another field?
Good morning!
Is it possible to select a field from a joined table row based on another field? Consider the following data in the CVALUES table:
ID C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 C6
T1 9.6 10.3 12.4 19.6 19.6 0
T7 9.6 10.4 0 0 0 0
T3 8.2 9.9 11.4 19.6 19.6 0
T8 8.3 10.7 13.5 20.7 0 0
T5 9.4 10.3 12.7 22.9 19.6 0
...And the following data in the MDETAIL table:
ID MDATE CNUM ...
T1 03/28/2012 18:00:00 4
T1 03/28/2012 18:00:00 1
T8 03/29/2012 06:00:00 6
T8 03/29/2012 06:00:00 5
...I want to get the column from CVALUES corresponding to the CNUM field in the MDETAIL table. I'm currently doing this:
SELECT m.t1, m.mdate,
CASE WHEN m.cnum = 1 THEN c.c1
WHEN m.cnum = 2 THEN c.c2
WHEN m.cnum = 3 THEN c.c3
WHEN m.cnum = 4 THEN c.c4
WHEN m.cnum = 5 THEN c.c5
WHEN m.cnum = 6 THEN c.c6 END AS cvalue
FROM mdetail m
JOIN cvalues c ON m.id = c.idThe records in the CVALUES table are unique; only one row per ID.
This method works, and it's fast but it's messy code and I think there has to be a better way to do it. I use the cvalue value in several calculations so every calculation I use it in has this giant glob of CASE in it!Since you're comparing the same column against scalar values, the CASE statement could be simplified in a similar way :
CASE m.cnum
WHEN 1 THEN c.c1
WHEN 2 THEN c.c2
WHEN 3 THEN c.c3
WHEN 4 THEN c.c4
WHEN 5 THEN c.c5
WHEN 6 THEN c.c6
END AS cvalueSince performance is not the issue here, now it depends on what you consider "more readable".
Using a one-liner piece of code certainly makes the query looks less bulky, but I won't be so sure about readability and immediate understanding. -
SECATT, use output parameters from a recorded transaction
Hi everybody,
I'm testing the functionality of the SECATT transaction. I have a question about the folllowing case:
someone has recorded mutliple transactions and wants them to be executed one after the other. But, 1 of these recorded transactions needs data that is generated by a previous transaction. Is this in some way possible (do these transactions generate some output parameters and can you capture them in your local parameters).
thank you in advance,
TomRajesh,
please check if this following proposal could serve you.
Define the Query with mode FixedQueryWithOutput. In the package define a ref cursor as IN OUT parameter. To get your 3 values back, open the cursor in your procedure like "Select val1, val2, val3 from dual". Then the values should get into your query.
Here is an example how this could be defined.
Package:
type return_cur IS ref CURSOR;
Procedure:
PROCEDURE myProc(myReturnCur IN OUT return_cur) ...
OPEN myReturnCur FOR SELECT val1, val2, val3 FROM dual;
Query:
DECLARE
MYRETURNCUR myPackage.return_cur;
BEGIN
myPackage.myProc(
MYRETURNCUR => ?
END;
Good luck.

Concatinating a field from several records into a single string
Using Crystal Reports 11
I have a table of EMS/Fire runs, with a related table of fire trucks that respond on each run. My report is grouped by EMS/Fire run, and then the details section shows each truck, something like this....
Run #1 | 123 E Main St | Structure Fire
E123
E124
E125
L123
L342
R153
Run #2 | 455 S High St | Fire Alarm
E322
E233
L122
What I would like to do is hide the details section, and instead in the footer section of each group, have a "text field" that combines all of the trucks into 1 line, something like this...
Run #1 | 123... | Stru... | E123, E124, E125, L123...
Run #2 | 455... | Fir... | E322, E233, L122
Basically the logic would be:
For Each RecordInThisGroup
If Maximum(TruckNumberField) = TruckNumber Field Then
TruckNumberField
Else
TruckNumberField & ", "
Next RecordInThisGroup
Is there a way to loop through all the records in the group?
Thanks for any insight!
JasonHi Jason,
This can't be done in the Detail section but we can do it in the Group Footer. Seeing as you already are grouping on the EMS/Filre run this is good. We can use a running total to do this.
1) Create a formula and drop it into the Group Header. This will reinitialize the running total for each group:
WhilePrintingRecords;
StringVar Run := "";
You can suppress this formula so you don't see it when you run the report
2) Now create another formula that will go into the Detail section. This is the formula that will build the string:
WhilePrintingRecords;
StringVar Run;
Run := Run & & ", " & {table.TRUCK};
You can hide the detail section or format this formula to be suppressed so you don't see it.
3) The last formula goes into the GroupFooter section and will display the string:
WhilePrintingRecords;
StringVar Run;
Good luck,

CRS Editor - Retrieving Timestamp database field from SQL 2005
Hello -
For the life of me, I cannot retrieve a database timestamp field from SQL 2005.
I have successfully used 'cast(Date as char(30)) as DateStr' to convert to string but the DBRead statement displays the original object only as java.lang.Timestamp. Any posts regarding this topic usually require Java skill sets above my level (creating new java class for import,...).
There has to be an easy way to do this without being a Java programmer, yes?
Any help here would greatly be appreciated!
Thanks
Andy Backus
941.587.7199Andy,
I'm guessing you know that this isn't really a date/time value in MS SQL. According to Microsoft:
The Transact-SQL timestamp data type is not the same as the timestamp data type defined in the SQL-92 standard. The SQL-92 timestamp data type is equivalent to the Transact-SQL datetime data type.
But to your question how to get the timestamp value out in a string...You'll want to use the convert function:
select convert(varchar(10),myTimestampField) from myTable
That will return the hex value in the column in a string format. Also, when you retrieve the data, are you looking at the original table (which specifies the column is a timestamp), or did you create a dummy table with the columns named and formatted the way the data will be returned that UCCX can look at for the schema? If it doesn't have the correct schema to look at, you'll have problems.

How to merge key field from external source system with SAP R/3 master
Hi,
In SAP BW 7.0 system, our scenario is Master Data for 0GL_ACCOUNT is coming from SAP R/3 alongwith the Transactional data records for standard FI cubes. Then, one more set of transaction data is coming from external source system, a flat file, into another custom DSO(ZDSO_FI), which also has this GL Account field.
This flat file's GL account, GL_file, has to be basically mapped/merged with the standard 0GL_ACCOUNT field so that at the time of loading the transactional data for custom DSO, ZDSO_FI (with transformation mapping GL_file > 0GL_ACCOUNT), system automatically refers to the 0GL_ACCOUNT master data to load these incoming transactional values, from the external flat file system. How can this be done?
To illustrate the scenario, say I have 5 records in 0GL_ACCOUNT, loaded from SAP R/3 into SAP BW-
0GL_ACCOUNT Short Description Source System
100 D1 R/3
200 D2 R/3
300 D3 R/3
400 D4 R/3
500 D5 R/3
Now suppose if my flat file has following sample transactional data, to be uploaded in SAP BW ZDSO_FI-
GL_file Key Figure1
400 789
200 567
Then after uploading this transactional data in ZDSO_FI (with transformation mapping GL_file > 0GL_ACCOUNT), the 0GL_ACCOUNT data becomes as below-
0GL_ACCOUNT Short Description Source System
400
200
100 D1 R/3
200 D2 R/3
300 D3 R/3
400 D4 R/3
500 D5 R/3
So note that the system did not refer the incoming GL's from flat file, although the field is mapped to 0GL_ACCOUNT in transformation, to the already available master data. Rather created 2 new data rows for the GL accounts coming from external system. Because of this I am not able to perform the calculations common from standard FI cube and ZDSO_FI, with GL account as key field. I need to synchronise these data values based on GL Account to proceed with further calculation and am badly stuck.
Request if anyone can please throw some light on how to achieve this seemingly simple requirement?
Thanks in advance.

When exporting TIFFs (from original RAW), I noticed my metadata said the "date created" was the day of export. I want to be able to access the date the original image was taken as opposed to the day I exported it. Is there a way to maintain original date of image taken in my info? I couldn't seem to find it after I exported my TIFFs...
I just tested this with LR 5.5 Mac OS 10.9.3 and it works correctly for me.
To troubleshoot your problem:
1. Which version of LR and which platform (Mac, Windows)?
2. Which tool or command are you using to examine Date Created of the exported TIFF?
3. Upload a sample TIFF showing the problem to Dropbox or similar and post the URL here. This will allow us to take a look in detail. -

Problem in loading transactional data from to 0MKT_DSO1(ods) to 0MKTG_C01
Hi,
I am trying to load lead transaction data to the standard Crm lead management cube from ODS.There is a problem while loading transaction data from 0MKT_DSO1(ods) to the infocube 0MKTG_C01 as the field 0STATECSYS2(CRM STATUS) is set to 10 in ods -meaning incorrect transaction. This feild is not there in the infocube.
There is a routine in the cube that deletes data records with (0statecsys2) set to 10.
THIS field is not coming in the transaction.
so, where can i see the master data in crm source system? and why is that feild getting set to 10 ?
thanks in advance!Thanks for the reply..

Trying to delete a record from an entity-based VO in ADF
We are using J-Developer 9.0.5.2
This is a web app using struts and ADF BC
Click the link below to view part of the struts diagram that relates to this question
http://home.earthlink.net/~katie1les/images/delete.gif
1. We have a DataPage that displays a list of items (catalogItemLIsting.jsp). This is a view of all items in a particular category based on the ItemsVO. Each item has a delete icon beside it.
2. The user clicks the delete icon which forwards to the bindDeleteItem DataAction that will bind that item number (through custom method in the AM) to an entity-based DeleteItemVO (the only record that will be in the DeleteItemVO is the item they selected to delete). This step corresponds to the deleteItem Data Page as seen in the image link above).
We do this step (step 2) because we want to show the user a confirmation page with additional item information before they actually delete the item. Otherwise, we could just perform the delete from the original page.
3. On the deleteItem data page there is a Delete (">Select</a>) link beside the single item in the view that when clicked should set the current row (the only row in the view object) and forward to the setDeleteItemDA Data Action.
4. I dragged the setCurrentRowWithKey method from the DeleteItemVO onto the setDeleteItemDA data action.
5. I forwarded that data action to the deleteItemDA data action where I dragged the Delete method from the DeleteItemVO.
6. This action forwards to a deleteItemDP data page where I dropped a Commit action from the AM which owns the DeleteItemVO.
The result of executing these steps brings it back to itself (deleteItem.do) and tries to rebind the single record view object producing a ORA-01008: not all variables bound error and not forwarding to the setDeleteItemDA data action.
Are we using the right approach here?
I tried following the example located at: http://otn.oracle.com/products/jdev/collateral/tutorials/9050/bizcomp_jsp_tut.html#delete, but there are some differences between the two. We are using data pages and a single view object, while the example is using regular jsp pages and a master detail view relationship.Thanks Steve for the reply. We dowloaded the following example (http://otn.oracle.com/products/jdev/tips/muench/DeleteEmpWithConfirm.zip) and tried to make it work for us. We set everything exactly the same (as far as we could tell). There is one difference though between what you have in this example and ours and that is that the VO that is dropped on the first data page is first bound by a custom method through a preceeding data action. When the page is rendered we see the item we choose (and that was bound in the data action) correctly on the page.
The problem comes in when we click on the delete link on that page, it does not seem to be posting back properly - it appears to be ignoring the "confirmDelete" event, which is part of the url (and it's corresponding forward named the same) and instead ends up trying to rebind the VO on the same page which produces a "not all variables bound" error. Error listed below.
Why is the Datapage seeking to rebind the VO again, when it was already bound previously? Shouldn't the setCurrentRowKey method simply set the current row on the VO without having to requery the VO again?
*** error page ***
You must correct the following error(s) before proceeding:
JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: oracle.jbo.SQLStmtException, msg=JBO-27122: SQL error during statement preparation.

Les, here's a minimal working sample:
http://otn.oracle.com/products/jdev/tips/muench/Delete
mpWithConfirm.zip
It uses just two data pages and leverages the
built-in event-handling features of ADF described in
the ADF Data Binding Primer and ADF/Struts Overview.
The pages use the post-back pattern to handle their
own events before forwarding.

I am pulling information based on the following "If" statement;
If({JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Category} = "L"
and "cost" in {JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Transaction_Type}
and {JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Transaction_Date} > {@Prev Week}
and {JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Transaction_Date} <= {@Week 1})
then
{JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Units}
This works fine and I can print it on the report with other associated fields. One of those fields is a "Cost Code" field associated with the above conditions and date set (I am pulling for one pay period week). Of these transactions, each week different "cost codes" could be available.
One item I need to figure out another formula is associated with the cost codes that are pulled, but, I need to compare them to a different date range.
Here is how I get the cost codes that were used in a specific time frame;
If({JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Category} = "L"
and "cost" in {JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Transaction_Type}
and {JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Transaction_Date} > {@Prev Week}
and {JCT_CURRENT__TRANSACTION.Transaction_Date} <= {@Week 1})
then
left({JCM_MASTER__COST_CODE.Cost_Code},6) & "001"
This gives me the cost codes used in that period but changes the last three digits to be "001" (xx-xx-001).
Now, I need to take that cost code, the xx-xx-001 and compare it to a completely different date range to get an "estimate" number.
My problem is that, because I need to use a date range in the original conditions, even after I truncate the cost code, for some reason, it stays associated with that date range.
How can I use a field from a group of records based on date, but, associate it with a competely different date range.
I hope this is clear, I am having a real hard time with this, I am fairly new, but have pretty normal working knowledge of basic formulas, etc...
Thanks, MikePlease re-post if this is still an issue

How to retrieve more then one record from database
I am doing a SELECT FROM WHERE SQL statement on a database which returns more then one record. I want to retrieve certain column values from the selected records. How do I do that? If only one record is returned, I know I can do a data operation with operation set to 'Get-Retrieve Values from Record' and Record to operate on set to 'Current-Use current record'. I need to find out how to configure to data operation window in the case more then one record is returned by the preceding SQL statement. Depending on the number of records returned, I can dynamically create array variables to store the 'to be retrieved' column values, just dont know how to retrieve them.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
AnujI apologize for not being clear in explaining my problem, perhaps I should have posted an example. Anyways, I was able to figure out the solution. I was doing an 'Open SQL' statement which was selecting multiple records (rows) from a table in the dB. I was storing the number of records returned in a local variable. Then, I wanted to retrieve certain columns of all the selected rows (records). In the "Data operation", I was choosing the 'Record to operate on' as 'Current-Use Current Record'. Changing this field to 'Next-Fetch next record' fixed the problem. I then retrieved the values of those columns into a dynamically created array variable whose dimensions came from the local variable which stored the number of records returned in the SELECT SQL statement.
Thanks
