Sorting issue on - around 20 records based on one field Data Manager

Hello Experts,
We are facing issue sorting some records which belong to one contract.
if we sort by one field ie item no, it is not sorting based on this field. This issue only one set of contract only.
For other set of data, sorting is working fine.
Any hint will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

HI saptest,
I have not heard of such a issue,please provide detailed description of the same to give a better idea.
Thanks,
Ravi

Identifying records based on one or more common fields

Hi all
This should be easy - but going round in circles. I want to be able to group together records based on whether at least one field is the same as the corresponding field in a different record.
So:
Account No Tel No PostCode
ABC123 17654231 TS24 4ZX
DEF987 8764573 NE1 1AL
QWE921 17654321 SR9 8BD
ASD579 24697615 SR9 8BD
So in the above example the first, third and fourth record would all form one group because the first links to the third based on Tel No and the third links to the fourth based on PostCode. The second record will be in a group of its own. I want to output the above (into a new table) with an additional field linking relevant records together (a group number).
My first pass was to simply:
select the minimum group number from the output table where either the Tel No or Phone No match the current record. If no match then create a new record for this record with the next incremental group number.
This would give
Account No Tel No PostCode Group
ABC123 17654231 TS24 4ZX 1
DEF987 8764573 NE1 1AL 2
QWE921 17654321 SR9 8BD 1
ASD579 24697615 SR9 8BD 1
On the surface that looks OK. The problem occurs if for instance the PostCode in the second record is 'SR9 8BD'. The output would be identical to the above - but I want them to all share the same group number as now there is some commonality between all four records. I'm sure I need to do something recursively but just can't get my head around it.
Would really appreciate some help.
Thanks
Ian

What features of Oracle SQL are recursive? CONNECT BY (as shown below) and, starting in Oracle 11.2, recursive WITH clauses.
Would really appreciate some help.Here's one way to do that:
CREATE TABLE     table_y
AS
WITH   got_related_account_no      AS
     SELECT table_x.*
     ,     CONNECT_BY_ROOT account_no     AS related_account_no
     FROM     table_x
     CONNECT BY NOCYCLE account_no     != PRIOR account_no
          AND   (         tel_no      = PRIOR tel_no
                OR    post_code      = PRIOR post_code
             -- OR ...   -- other columns as needed
SELECT       account_no, tel_no, post_code
,       DENSE_RANK () OVER (ORDER BY MIN (related_account_no))
                     AS grp
FROM       got_related_account_no
GROUP BY account_no, tel_no, post_code
;This will work in Oracle 10.1 and up.
At the end of this, table_y contains:
ACCOUNT_NO TEL_NO     POST_CODE         GRP

ABAP - HR : Need macro or FM to get record based on changed on date (AEDTM)

Hi,
I am having the requirement to get record which changed on yesterday (for sy-datum - 1). That means if record is updated today, by using rp_provide_from_last I will get today's record. But i should get yesterdays record.
we can get this by using select or loop or provide - endprovide. Taking performance issue in consideration, this statements are not allowed.
So please provide me any macro or function module which we can retrive the record based on AEDTM.
I am using PNPCE LDB and i need to extract data for PA infotypes.
Thanks in Advance,
Ravi Kumar

Hi Ravi,
There is no macro which can retrieve the record based on AEDTM. One more thing to say is statement provide ...endprovide statement can be used and there would be no performance issue if i am not wrong. Anyway try this code.
tables: pa0001, pernr.
infotypes : 0001.
data : begin of itab occurs 0,
       pernr like pa0001-pernr,
       aedtm like pa0001-aedtm,
       end of itab.
data : v_aedtm type pa0001-aedtm.
start-of-selection.
v_aedtm = sy-datum - 1.
get pernr.
provide * from p0001 between pn-begda and pn-endda.
if p0001-aedtm = v_aedtm.
move : p0001-pernr to itab-pernr,
       p0001-aedtm to itab-aedtm.
       append itab.
endif.
endprovide.
end-of-selection.
loop at itab.
write :/ itab-pernr, itab-aedtm.
endloop.

Selecting records based on different fields

Post Author: timg
CA Forum: General
I have three groups which I study quite often, the blues (as identified in field 1with codes), the reds (identified in field 2 with codes), and the greens (identified in field 3 with certain codes).
I want to be able to run one report which, through a parameter field, I can select the group (red, green, or blue) for which I can select records from the database and analyze. Stated another way, if I select "Blue" in the parameter field, how can I get CR to pull certain records in the correct field with the correct codes.

Post Author: yangster
CA Forum: General
dunno what your codes are but something like this will work if you put it in the section expertif ?para = "BLUE" then field1 in [a, b, c] elseif ?para = "RED" then field2 in [d, e, f] elseif ?para = "GREEN" then field3 in [g, h, i]

Select records based on monthly anniversary date

Hi,
I have a table with a date_added field and I want to select records based on the monthly anniversary date of this field.
eg. ID, Date_added
1, 10-DEC-2012
2, 11-NOV-2012
3, 10-MAR-2012
4, 28-FEB-2012
5, 30-DEC-2012
So For the 10th of Jan 2013, I would want to return records 1 and 3 only
I started looking at the extract function, but this soon falls down for records at the end of the month. For example, on the 28th Feb, I would also want to include records where the date_added day is the 29th, 30th or 31st. So, in the table above I would want to return records 4 and 5, but extract would only return 4.
Is there a simple function to do this month anniversary query - am I missing something very obvious? Or, do I need to write a query to explicitly cope with dates at the end of the month? So far I haven't found a sensible simple solution!
I'm using 11g
thanks

SQL Query to retrieve the All records based on the Max Dates.

Hello all,
I am trying to retrieve the newest record based on the date field ( nextDate ).
Currently there are only 4 records in the MC_Maintenance table and two in the Machine table.
Machine table
MC_id             EquipID
1                     0227
MC_id             EquipID
2                     0228
MC_Maintenance table
Maint_id           MC_id             Next_maint
1                      2                      08/25/2010
2                      2                      07/01/2010
3                      1                      06/11/2010
4                      1                      07/11/2010
What I am trying to accomplish is,
list the two machines from the Machine table with the MAX(Next_maint) controlling the MC_Maintenance output list
These are the records that I would like to Display.
Maint_id           MC_id             Next_maint
1                      2                      08/25/2010
4                      1                      07/11/2010
Below is the SQL Query
SELECT
       MC.MC_ID as ID,
        MC.complete_Date as completed,
        MC.next_maint as nextDate,
        MC.maint_notes as Notes,
        MC.facility as Facility,
        M.EquipId,
        M.name as name,
        M.SerialNumber as SN,
        M.dept as dept,
        M.Freq as freq
        From MC_Maintenance MC, Machine M
        where MC.MC_ID = M.MC_ID
'           USING MAX(nextDate )
Any ideas would help.
TJ

I would have thought that was a simple group by problem?
SELECT M.EquipID, MC.MC_ID, Max(MC.next_maint)
FROM MC_Maintenance MC INNER JOIN Machine M ON MC.MC_ID = M.MC_ID
GROUP BY M.EquipID, MC.MC_ID

PI mapping: concatenating multiple records to just one field

Hi
I am trying to concatenate an unknown number of records in the source message to just one field in the target message.
The structure in the source message is:
<simple>
 <record>
 <string>first string value</string>
 </record>
 <record>
 <string>second string value</string>
 </record>
 <record>
 <string>third string value</string>
 </record>
<concatstring></concatstring>
</simple>
Where the number of records in the source message is unknown.
The target message should look like this:
<simple>
 <concatstring>first string value second string value third string value</concatstring>
</simple>
I tried using UDF:
public String concat(String count,String streng,Container container){
int counter = Integer.parseInt(count);
String out = " ";
for(int i=0;i<(counter);i++){
out = out + streng;
return out;
But that only picks up the value of the field in the first record and repeats that the number of counts.
Can I avoid using a UDF? If not, what is the code?
Looking forward to the answer
Mikael

Adding a record to a relationship | MDM data manager

Hi , Following is my situation ...
I have some material numbers in the product table in the material repository which are a part of a kit . Basically a kit is a comination of some material numbers put together . Now this kit is also in the same product table appearing as another material number . So as you can see , this is a parent-child relationship but within the same table (product table) .
Now I have defined the relationship table in the console and have also defined the type of relationship in the same . The product table is also involved with another table in a product level relationship . When i open the data manager and double click the relationship name under the record detail tab , i can see the pop-up window but it does not allow me to add any records to the relationship .
The guide tells me to use the "Relationship" menu option by selecting the number of records I want to add to a relationship and then use the relationship menu on the top of data manager , but when I tried to do that , the options are greyed out .
What do you guys think is the problem ??
Regards
Deepak Singh

Deepak,
You should be all set with setting the table up in the Console. Once you add the Parent/Child relationship there it should be active in the Data Manager.
To add parts to the table in the Data Manger:
Select a specific part (the parent part)
Double click on the child field in the relationships table
It should open the new dialog box and default to the child tab in it
This dialog box will remain open and you can move around in the Data Manager without changing this selection
Find the part(s) you want to add to the relationship as children
Select them in the Records window and drag-and-drop them into the Relationship window that is open
It should add them right in.
You should also be able to add them with the Import Manager
For Import Manger set up a file with:
Parent                  Child
Parent1                 Child1
Parent1                 Child2
Parent1                 Child3
Parent2                 Child4
Parent2                 Child5
You should be able to map this to the Relationships table and import the relationships instead of manually mapping in the Data Manager.

Download to Excel with Header but one field data is repeating

Hi All,
I'm downloading to Excel with Header. But One field is repeating and another is not. This is happening only when I use   'CONCATENATE ' . With Out this key usage data download to excel is correct. But   CONCATENATE is required as constant need to add before the one field.
My coding is as below.
DATA: BEGIN OF IT_FINAL OCCURS 0,
      P1(10) TYPE C,
      SI(19) type c,
        END OF IT_FINAL.
DATA : BEGIN OF IT_HEADER OCCURS 0,
TITLE(100) TYPE C,
END OF IT_HEADER,WA_HEADER LIKE IT_HEADER.
loop at it_final.
CONCATENATE '894412' it_final-SI INTO IT_FINAL.
modify it_final.
endloop.
CLEAR:WA_HEADER.
WA_HEADER-TITLE = 'Mat No'.

Thank You,
Pranitha

hi,
it would have been better if u hve opt for creating workarea for ur internal table.
Try to use "clear it_final" after
CONCATENATE '894412' it_final-SI INTO IT_FINAL.
n also change the modify statement :
modify it_final transporting SI .
hope this will surely help you

Sort issues in solaris 10 based on Locale settings

Hi All -
When Locale is set to en_GB.ISO8859-1 and sort done, the output does not match the sort done on the same file with Locale set to en_US.ISO8859-1. Please note that both are using the ISO8859-1 char set. Why is the difference?
Your input will greatly help.
Thanks in advance

Different locales have different sort orders, the sort order used will be determined by the LC_COLLATE environment variable.
One example of this is given in the sort manpage;
If LC_COLLATE is set to C, sorting will be in ASCII order.
If LC_COLLATE is set to en_US, sorting is case insensitive
except when the two strings are otherwise equal and one has
an uppercase letter earlier than the other.

Select records based on 1 field have either of 2 values

Good afternoon,
II have 2 tables, Account and Order, it's a one to many where 1 account can have many orders. I'm trying to pull the records where the account has orders that have a status of Completed or Quoted. I know I'm not explaining well so hopefully the example below will help.
Account A has 3 orders, all of them are completed.
Account B has 5 orders, 2 of them are completed, and 3 of them are quoted.
Account C has 2 orders, all of them are quoted.
I only want Account B to show up in my report. That is, I only want accounts that have both completed and quoted orders
I've tried various record selections but because the status field on a single order can only have one value I'm not sure how to get the results that I need.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

hi Jeanette,
for this you may either have to write a report with a Command based object with a subselect and a WHERE IN clause.
there's an easier way using a Group Selection formula though...the disadvantage of this method is that this doesn't filter those records out at the database which could be a problem if you're dealing with 100's of thousands of records. if that's the case, then use the method mentioned at the top.
For a Group Selection method try the following:
1) create a Group on the Accountfield
2) create a formula called Completed that reads something like
if = 'Completed' then 1
3) create another formula called 'Quoted' that reads something like
if = 'Quoted' then 1
4) put these fields on the report and put a Summary on them at the Account Group level
5) go into the Group Selection Formula and find your group level summaries and create a formula similar to
Sum(AccountGroup, @Completed) > 0 and Sum(AccountGroup,@Quoted) > 1
This will bring back only Accounts with both completed and quoted records.

Issue with Crystal Report based on 2 different data sources

Hi there,
I am having a frustrating problem with a report I've designed and I'm hoping someone might be able to assist please.
The report has 3 different prompts, each of which is based on a dynamic list of values retrieved via views within a SQL server db.
We are wanting to introduce the use of Universes as much as possible, so the data returned is based off a BO Universe data source query.
I have uploaded the report into BO and have provided the necessary database logon information for the report (in the "Process" > "Database" settings in the CMC) for both the direct db datasource connection (for the views) and the BO Universe query connection.
When the report is run however, the report still prompts for the database user name & password credentials. I have triple checked my db connection settings, and also have "Use same database logon as when report is run" set to true. I also tested a cut-down version of the report without the Universe connection with the same db logon credentials I provided and there was no credentials prompt when it was run, proving those values are accepted.
Does anyone know why this is happening & if there is a way around it? Alternatively, is there some way that a report prompt may be based on a dynamic list of values retrieved via a Universe connection? This way I'd be able to remove the db connection for the views and have the report solely based on the Universe.
Another issue that occurs is out of the 3 prompts, a user can select a User Name OR Number, and also must select a Period. However if the User Name or Number is left blank the message "The value is not valid" is shown. So I tried a cut-down version of the report with only the BO Universe as a data source (static prompts) and this didn't occur, i.e. I was allowed to leave either the User Name or Number empty.
I hope this all of makes sense - let me know if not. If anyone is able to help out with any of this it would be very much appreciated.
Cheers,
Marco

Can Bridge sort my images into folders based on an Exif date?

All my Adobe products are pre-CS/CS2 and I don't yet have access to Adobe Bridge. My trial copy has also timed out. However, I would like to know if Bridge has the capability to take a folder of images (Canon Raw) and move them to new folders based on the original exposure date as stored in the Exif metadata (ideally creating the required target folders automatically). I'm thinking in terms of one folder per year, probably with subfolders for each month.
I'm simply trying to avoid having all my images in a single humongous folder with Bridge re-creating (or at least re-displaying) thousands of thumbnails every time I just want to look at a few images. Sorting them into folders by date just seems a simple solution to that problem. However, I'd be very happy to hear about alternative image filing ideas.
Once I have used Bridge to create extended metadata for image categories, etc, I'm also assuming that Bridge will let me search for images that match defined criteria no matter how many folders those images are stored in.

I don't know of any functionality to do that in Bridge now; however, it certainly can be done via scripting.
Perhaps one of our forum contributors might want to take on a "picture sorter" script...

Select records based on formula field

I have a formula field that I am trying to sort data by. I want to eliminate records that come up with a 0 in this formula field. I tried select expert, but it doesn't recognize the field.

Hi Steve,
You cannot sort on a formula field that uses printime functions or executes in the 'whileprintingrecords' phase - example would be running totals or formulae based on shared variables from the subreport.
What you can however do is, suppress records where the formula returns zero.
To do this, go to the Section Expert > Select the section you wish to suppress > Click the formula button beside 'Suppress' and use this code"
{@Formula_name} = 0

One to one relationship between records while entering in MDM data manager?

Example Scenario::
 I have created Employee details(main table) and Salary (look up flat table for employee number filed in main table) . Tried to get the corresponding employee's gross salary from salary table to employee Details table basing on Employee number field in Employee Details table as Gross salary and Employee number are common fields for both the tables. But i could not get one to one relationship in this case , Please explain how to achieve?

Employee Details (Main Table)
 EmpNo(Look up field) EmpNa GrossSal(Look up field)
Salary Details (Look Flat Table)
 Empno Basic Sal GrossSal
 012 5000 10000
 013 4000 8000
I have created two tables with the above fields. In main table i kept two look up fields to Salary Details table. First i have entered data to salary table as above , now when i am trying to enter data in to main table EmpNo as 012 it should show Gross salary as 10000 automatically as per the corresponding EmpNo. Instead it is showing all the Grosssal values of Salary table.

Sorting issue on - around 20 records based on one field Data Manager
