SQL Usage within PLD

We will often drop ship for customers. I have created a UDF to use as the ship to company name if we are not using the BP name. What I would like to do is have PLD use this if it is populated, but use CardName if it isn't (on our Packing Lists). If it were a query I could use:
CASE WHEN ODLN.U_ShipToCo IS NULL THEN OCRD.CardName ELSE ODLN.U_ShipToCo
I tried creating a new field and using the formula option, but that seems to want to only work with mathematical functions.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Monica

Hi Monica,
Try this,
Case 1
->> Create 1 UDF in Header level on Marketing Documents.
->> Assign the below FMS in UDF. This FMS will retrieve the Current CardCode (or) U_ShipToCo value.
->> put the UDF field in PLD.
Ex.
Table - ODLN.
Column - U_ShipToCo.
it will be work exactly.
SELECT DISTINCT
CASE WHEN $[ODLN.U_ShipToCo] = ' ' THEN $[ODLN.CardCode]
WHEN $[ODLN.U_ShipToCo] != ' ' THEN $[ODLN.U_ShipToCo]
ELSE 'NULLVALUE' END
FROM ODLN
Example:
Field_123 -> CardCode.
Field_456 -> U_ShipToCo value.
Case 2
->> Open the PLD and Create 2 database field in header.
->> 1 Database field is retrieve the CardCode Value and Another 1 Database field is retrieve the U_ShipToCo Value.
->> Create 1 Formula field in Header and assign the formula for Link to CardCode.
Formula Field ID - Field_789
Field_456==' '
->> Click Content Tab and Assign the Link to fields on Properties Window.
Link To
Field_123 Link To Field_789
Field_456 Link To Field_456
Save the PLD and see the Print Preview.

Madhan.

Queries on pl/sql tables within a function

hi,
how can i execute regular sql-queries within a function on a pl/sql table which the function has recieved as a parameter ? i have tried quite a bit and always get type mismatches or internal errors. anybody has a good example on this ?
thanks in advance,
stephan

hi,
okay, i will not post the actual code i have, because it won't make too much sense out of the context, but here are the relevant parts...
i have a few object definitions that represent the records of the three tables (two input and one output)...
create type t1 as object (...);
create type t2 as object (...);
create type t3 as object (...);
and a package with the table definitions
create or replace package t_defs as
type tab_t1 is table of t1;
type tab_t2 is table of t2;
type tab_t3 is table of t3;
end t_defs;
and here is a rough sketch what the function should look like later:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION some_function (
tab1 IN t_defs.tab_t1, tab2 IN t_def.tab_t2)
RETURN t_defs.tab_t3 PIPELINED IS
TYPE refcur IS REF CURSOR;
cur0 refcur;
curr_rec t3 := t3(NULL, ....);
BEGIN
open cur0 for 'here is the statement i could not do';
LOOP
FETCH cur0 INTO curr_rec.....;
EXIT WHEN cur0%NOTFOUND;
. -- (manipulate the record) --
PIPE ROW(curr_rec);
END LOOP;
RETURN;
END;

Anonymous PL/SQL block within a select statement

I read somewhere that it was possible to build an anonymous pl/sql block within a sql statement. Something along the lines of:
select
begin
i = 0;
return i;
end;
from dual;
However, for the life of me, I can't find documentation on this. Could someone please point me to the right place, assuming I'm not just imagining it.
Thanks.

Did you mean, executing a pl/sql block generated from an sql.
declare
cmd varchar2(100);
begin
select 'declare i pls_integer := 0; begin i:=1; end;' into cmd from dual;
execute immediate cmd;
end;

Is the anyway to get a report of component usage within an Application.

It would sure be 'nice' to have a report of the component usage within an Application. I am most interested in where the LOVs are being referenced. It is extremely time consuming to check every report/form item by item. I'm sure this information is available 'somewhere' within the Portal schema but I don't know where. Anyone got any ideas? Thanx in advance

Such info can be obtained from Portal schema.
Those tables are not granted to public.
How do you plan to use it? For your own maintain purpose?

How do I return two values from a stored procedure into an "Execute SQL Task" within SQL Server 2008 R2

Hi,
How do I return two values from a
stored procedure into an "Execute SQL Task" please? Each of these two values need to be populated into an SSIS variable for later processing, e.g. StartDate and EndDate.
Thinking about stored procedure output parameters for example. Is there anything special I need to bear in mind to ensure that the SSIS variables are populated with the updated stored procedure output parameter values?
Something like ?
CREATE PROCEDURE [etl].[ConvertPeriodToStartAndEndDate]
@intPeriod INT,
@strPeriod_Length NVARCHAR(1),
@dtStart NVARCHAR(8) OUTPUT,
@dtEnd NVARCHAR(8) OUTPUT
AS
then within the SSIS component; -
Kind Regards,
Kieran.
Kieran Patrick Wood http://www.innovativebusinessintelligence.com http://uk.linkedin.com/in/kieranpatrickwood http://kieranwood.wordpress.com/

Below execute statement should work along the parameter mapping which you have provided. Also try specifying the parameter size property as default.
Exec [etl].[ConvertPeriodToStartAndEndDate] ?,?,? output, ? output
Add a script task to check ssis variables values using,
Msgbox(Dts.Variables("User::strExtractStartDate").Value)
Do not forget to add the property "readOnlyVariables" as strExtractStartDate variable to check for only one variable.

Multiple SQL Update within Parent Query

I am tring to extract an image from within a MS SQL image field,
opening the image using JAI, getting the src.getWidth() & src.getHeight
() of each item within the database, and then writing the width and
height back into the database. Everything works except when I goto
write the values into the database - the page (when loading) continues
to work and work and work until I restart the tomcat service. I do not
understand why this would occur, and what is even stranger - I have
very similar code i used for resizing images in the database into a
thumbnail - display and original file sizes using a similar approach...
and that works with out a problem...
I have tried the code with out the inner update query - it works. I
tried with just the selection of a single specific item in the first
query and that works, but when I try multiple updates the second query
appears to stall.
The code is as follows.:

Passing variables to a SQL script within GC

Does anyone know if it is possible to pass in a variable to a SQL script job within Grid Control? I don't see that I can but I wanted to ask a larger group before cloing the loop on this.
For example, I have a few different databases which contain schemas which contain date-range daily partitioned tables. I have a single code block which normally accepts the table_owner as a variable then loops through to analyze the current day partition. I'd love for OEM to be able to have the job submitted to different database targets whilst passing in a different schema name.
Thank you in advance!

This can be done in two steps, but first create a table containing 1 field in all the target databases (something like table_owner) you want to analyze. Before running the analyze script change in all the to be analyzed databases the table_owner (as a job?). Then run the analyze script that contains a statement that first reads the table_owner and use this table_owner as the variable you want.
Even more simple would be to use a database link from the to be analyzed db's to a central db so you only have to change the table_owner in one table.

SYS_GUID() SQL functions within XQuery

Is there any simple way to invoke regular SQL functions from within XQuery?
I would like to create an identifier attribute, and set the value to SYS_GUID(), but when I try to directly embed the function, it comes back saying:
ORA-19237: XP0017 - unable to resolve call to function - fn:SYS_GUID
select XMLQUERY('
<AgeCmf dtm="{current-dateTime()}" id="{SYS_GUID()}"/>
' RETURNING CONTENT) from dual;
I could dump the value into a temp table, or make it an input parameter via another function, but I am looking for something simple within a SQL call.
Thanks,
HW

Maybe this?:
michaels> select xmlquery('<AgeCmf dtm="{current-dateTime()}" id="{s}"/>' passing xmltype('<s>' || sys_guid() || '</s>') returning content) x from dual
X
<AgeCmf dtm=" 2007-06-20T07:05:19.515000+02:00" id="6304A70F5C104ACB98C69EEB3D47891C"></AgeCmf>

Reporting on link usage within federated portal environment

Hi,
We have a fedrated portal environment and woul like to be able to report on how many users click on a web link within one of the portal pages. Is there an easy way to gather this information across all of the portal systems?
Thanks in advance.

I agree with Oliver on how easy it is to misunderstand SSO. People unfamiliar with the technology often assume that all varieties of SSO (e.g., logon tickets, x.509 certificates) are all sufficiently "secure".
It seems like people talk a lot more about logon tickets in the SNC. That's fine and all (because it's free), but people might be overlooking the security problem with logon tickets; they share the same security problems with web browser cookies (because a login ticket is essentially a cookie).
Additionally, there's the issue of insecure communications. If you use certificates to authenticate, then you can take advantage of SAP's "Secure Network Communications" technology. It's something like SSL but for the RFC/DIAG protocol.
One word of caution though: SAP only provides SNC from server-to-server with the SAP Cryptographic Library for free. For client-to-server encrypted communications, you probably have to find a vendor in the SAP EcoHub. You can query something along the lines of "single sign-on". Just find a vendor that uses certificate-based SSO. Most of the time they can deal with whichever identity repository that your company uses (e.g., ADS, eDirectory, RSA, SQL).
Summary:
1) There are different forms of SSO with different levels of "security"
2) Pay some attention to encrypted communications (you can address two important problems with the "right" SSO technology
3) You can do a lot with free SAP tools (e.g., cryptolib, logon tickets), but be willing to accept the security tradeoffs

I help with the script bellow, when I run it within DTS (in SQL Sever 2000), I got the error Invalid number/or not a valid month.

Calling set of sql scripts within a sqlscript

Hi i tried running set of scripts as follows
SQL>@c:\c1 which connects to the DB
and i have two more scripts within c1 as follows
connect usrname/pwd
@c:\i1
@c:\i2
exit
While running this i get the following error
SP2-0310: unable to open file "@c:\i1.sql"
SP2-0310: unable to open file "@c:\i2.sql"
however if i run as SQL>@i1 SQL>@i2 my execution seems to be fine, it errors out if i wrap it into c1 as mentione above, am i doing something wrong or missing something.

I see that in your script you run @c:\i1 and in SQLPlus you run SQL>@i1. What happens when in SQLPlus you run SQL>@c:\i1.
I see that you are working on Windows. Usually the starting directory for SQLPlus on Windows is $ORACLE_HOME\bin and not c:\.

Running SQL stored within a varchar2 for an update statement

I have a table that stores option settings for different programs that run in our system. It just has an id (number), name (varchar2(4000)) and value (varchar2(4000)). I will have one record (id=1) that stores sql code to generate a date that is converted into a character format, something like "to_char(sysdate-60,'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS')", and I have two records that store dates (id=2 and 3) as text.
I want to run something like "update options set value=(select value from options where id=1) where id=2;", but I know that will store my sql code ('to_char(sysdate-60,''YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'')'), and not a text-formatted date ('2009-04-16 13:04:05'). Is there any way within sql that I can use an update statement to store the results of value and not value itself? I generally use C++, so if I had to write a function to accomplish this, I would probably place it in the C++ program instead of a pl/sql function.

"triggers...<shivers>
Are you allowed to change database-side functionality?"
For the most part, yes. We're a small group, and I still do most of the DBA work, despite being a C++ developer and having a part-time DBA. The few triggers we have created are for record id numbers on data that a customer will input through APEX, and I will have to keep those. They're only on inserts, do nothing if the id is populated, and don't exist on this table. The trigger here seems to be something deep within oracle that I cannot change.
CREATE DATABASE LINK LOOPBACK USING '(description=(address=(protocol=beq)(program=/your/path/to/bin/oracle)))';
UPDATE options SET VALUE = dbms_xmlgen.getxmltype('SELECT VALUE FROM options@loopback WHERE id = 1').EXTRACT('//text()').getstringval () WHERE id = 2;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-12899: value too large for column "TEST"."OPTIONS"."VALUE" (actual: 65, maximum: 55)The "VALUE" column is a varchar(4000). I'm guessing something is too large for one of the oracle functions or there is a problem with a datatype, but I haven't found any answers. Will using extract affect my data in any way, say if my formula has a less than character for some strange reason? I happened to see a comparison between extract().getstringval() and extractval() at [http://pbarut.blogspot.com/2007/01/oracle-xmltype-exctractvalue-vs-extract.html], which makes it look like EXTRACT('//text()').getstringval () will change the less than to '&lt'. I can run tests to check once I get this working, but I'm not sure I can switch the procedure to extractval().

PL/SQL usage in Datawarehousing projects

Hi,
In Datawarehousing projects, most of the processing can be done through SQL code directly.
I found from few articles that we should strongly avoid PL/SQL Scripts in DWH projects.
But, if situation warrants, can we use PL/SQL for processing in D/W projects, is it advisable?
Please suggest, thank you.
Regards,
DR

PL/SQL is used instead of single SQL statements due to the "BULK COLLECT/FORALL" functionality which reduces the size of redo operations.It uses more redo, not less.
Tested in 11.1.0.6:

SQL*LOADER/SQL usage in Migration

I have very limited migration requirements. I DO NOT need to
migrate a database. I DO need to change some SQL and BCP load
scripts from SQL-SERVER 6.5 to their equivalents in ORACLE 8.0.5.
For this limited purpose, should I proceed to handcode these, or
would the workbench be of use to me?
Thanks for your help.

The migration workbench does, as part of the migration,
generate the BCP and SQL*Loader files required to migrate a
database. However, since you already have the BCP files created
then the Workbench would not actually be able to just generate
the other side of the picture (the SQL*Loader files). I can
suggest the following to you :
1. Perhaps use the Workbench to run a tiny migration that would
show you how we generate the SQL*Loader scripts. It is fairly
straight forward however we need to do some manipulation on
dates.
2. There is a chapter on SQL*Loader as part of the Oracle8i
documentation set.
