Rounding data on an approval query

Hello everyone...
As You know, taxes have increased in Mexico so we created new tax codes and accounts, and since I can't block any of the old taxcodes/acounts until all previous documents have ben closed/paid the only option I could think of was creating an approval process for all documents using the previous tax codes, since I can't create an approval query based on document lines/rows, I created it comparing the document's tax vs the document's total ($$). The old taxes were 10% and 15% these are the percentages I want to "block" using the approval process.
Here's the query I created
IF (($($27.0.number) = $($22.0.number).15) OR ($($27.0.number) = $($22.0.number).1) ) SELECT 'TRUE'
The query/approval works, but there is a problem: SBO rounds to 2 decimals, so for a $ 124.15 sale the 15% tas would be 18.6225 but the tax ammount field would show 18.62 only which by being different in 0.0025 passes the criteria...
How can I make this query work with rounded data?, I tried using round($($22.0.number)) but when then I always get a "Cannot comit transaction" error..
Thanks in advance
Hugo

Hugo,
I am glad my suggested solution worked.  I try to answer only questions that I know will work.
It does not help in answering on a trail and error basis which unfortunately happens a lot of times as the enthusiasm in answering keeps away the focus.
Depending on your decimal places definition in General Setting the numbers would be rounded.
Using CAST to Varchar will also preserve the decimals but the numeric value will get converted.
Best wishes

  • How to store data from a complex query and only fresh hourly or daily?

    We have a report which runs quite slow (1-2 minutes) because the query is quite complicate, so we would like to run this query daily only and store in a table so for those procedures that need to use this complex query as a subquery, can just join to this table directly to get results.
    However, I am not sure what kind of object I should use to store data for this complex query. Is data in global temp table only persist within transaction? I need something that can persist the data and be access by procedures.
    Any suggestions are welcome,
    Cheers

    Thank you for your reply. I looked at the materialized view earlier on, but have some difficulties to use it. So I have some questions here:
    1.The complex query is not a sum or aggregate functions, it just need to get data from different tables based on different conditions, in this case is it still appropriate to use meterialized view?
    2.If it is, I created one, but how to use it in my procedure? From the articles I read, it seems I can't just query from this view directly. So do I need to keep the complex query in my procedure and how the procedure will use the meterialized view instead?
    3. I also put the complex query in a normal view, then create a materialized view for this normal view (I expect the data from the complex query will be cache here), then in the procedure I just select * from my_NormalView, but it takes the same time to run even when I set the QUERY_REWRITE_ENABLED to true in the alter session. So I am not sure what else I need to do to make sure the procedure use the materialized view instead of the normal view. Can I query from the Materialized View directly?
    Below in the code I copied from one of the article to create the materialized view based on my normal view:
    CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW HK3ControlDB.MW_RIRating
    PCTFREE 5 PCTUSED 60
    TABLESPACE "USERS"
    STORAGE (INITIAL 50K NEXT 50K)
    USING INDEX STORAGE (INITIAL 25K NEXT 25K)
    REFRESH START WITH ROUND(SYSDATE + 1) + 11/24
    NEXT NEXT_DAY(TRUNC(SYSDATE), 'MONDAY') + 15/24
    enable query rewrite
    AS SELECT * FROM HK3ControlDB.VW_RIRating;

  • Error while trying to retrieve data from BW BEx query

    The following error is coming while trying to retrieve data from BW BEx query (on ODS) when the Characters are more than 50.
    In BEx report there is a limitation but is it also a limitation in Webi report.

    Hi,
    That warning / error message will be coming from the MDX interface on the BW server.  It does not originate from BOBJ.

  • Key Date variable; Interval in query properties for Time Dep. Masterdata

    Hi,
    I've been searching on the forum, and I think I know the answer already, but still I'd like
    to ask you all whether it's possible to create a Key Date Interval variable to be used in the query properties.
    As far as I can see you can only report by a single key date used in the query properties field for time dependant masterdata, but my customer has asked me to investigate the possibility to enter a date range.
    As all masterdata is time dependant I don't see how this would work, but if someone can shine a light on this maybe there is a solution available?
    Thanks for your help.
    M.

    Hi marc
    I understand your problem.
    I had an idea for a workaround.
    If you can create master data compounded with Valid from and Valid to both of these characteristics , how the query is computing
    the keyfigures.
    Every change in valid from or valid to is unique for the system in this case.
    Thanks

  • How to compare dates in a select query in open sql

    Hi
                       How can I retrieve data pertaining to a specified date using a select query.
    I have inserted date using the following code:
    String dateString = "2009-03-11";
    java.sql.Date date = java.sql.Date.valueOf(dateString);
    PreparedStatement stmt =con.prepareStatement("insert into DATEACCESS"
                                                                            + "(DATETEST)"
                                                                            + "values (?)");
    stmt.setDate(1,date);
    stmt.executeUpdate();
    How can I pass this in a select query,the below mentioned query did not fetch me any results.
    Select * from  DATEACCESS where DATETEST='2009-03-11'

    Hi
    Has ur date  problem resolved  ?
    If not resolved u can do the following
    As u already have sql date today declared . You want to get the data depending on that date
    As ur query is
    if( today != null)
    String query2 = select * from DATEACCESS where DATETEST<= ?
    PreparedStatement ps = conn.prepareStatement(query2);
    ps.setDate(1,today)
    ResultSet rs = ps.executeQuery();
    While(rs.next)
        ////// Here u will get data from query u needed ///
    If this also does not work just print the date and check in which format is it returning u .

    As previous poster said, no data is null value, no value. If you want something, you have nvl function to replace null value by an other more significative value in your query.<br>

  • Date Format in a query of (attribute Object)

    Hello to all experts and BW users,
    I have question regarding the format of a date characteristic in my query.I was wondering if it is possible to show a date field in the following substraction: 31/12/2006 in 2006.
    I want to change the format(dd/mm/yyyy)in(yyyy)
    The query (report) will show you the lease contract expiries in the future. Example:

    Many thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    I think there are two possible ways to do it - 
    1. manage it in Query (BEX) with VBA Macro
    2. add Calyear to your cube & let its value be determined automatically from 0calyear & use it in query.
    hope it helps.

  • Date formats in BI Query designer

    Hi gurus
    We have enhanced our cube 0sd_co3 where we have taken a number of dates such as Railway Receipt date, Actual Goods Issue date, LFdat, thses are only few examples. Now our reporting scenerio demands reporting based on thses dates as given in our time dimensions such as
    YYYYMM        Qty
    but not based on the date mapped in the time dimension in the cube. but based on these dates
    in oracle we have the to_char function through which we change the format of date while writing sql query
    so if there is any option of changing date format in query without changing the modelling
    Pl suggest
    Thanks
    Shivani

    Hi,
    You can create new characteristic of char number 6 . Include it in the data target. Populate it via a update rule ( Routine).
    Use input as standard date (Railway Receipt date) and then pass the value to the new char in the required format (YYYYMM). Follow same thing for other dates also.
    Let me know if you have doubt.
