Summarizing Three (3) Formulas (When Using "Sum" Within Each Formula)

I'm getting an error (i.e. 'This field cannot be summarized.") when
trying to summarize three (3) formulas.  I figured out that it is
probably because that there is a "Sum" in each formula.  I need totals
only for specific officers (not all officers). Can someone tell me how
to accomplish this ?  Thanks  ! ! !
Formula #1
NumberVar PeteTotal;
PeteTotal := 0;
If = "Pete"  And
   <> ["5001", "5030", "5031", "5032"] Then
   PeteTotal := Sum (, )
Formula #2
NumberVar MikeTotal;
MikeTotal := 0;
If = "Mike"  And
   <> ["5001", "5030", "5031", "5032"] Then
   MikeTotal := Sum (, )
Formula #3
NumberVar TonyTotal;
TonyTotal := 0;
If = "Tony"  And
   <> ["5001", "5030", "5031", "5032"] Then
   TonyTotal := Sum (, )
Formula #4
NumberVar AllTotals;
AllTotals :=0;
AllTotals := Sum(@PeteTotal, @MikeTotal, @TonyTotal)

I got zeros . . .  below is the code  . . .  do you see anything wrong ?
Formula #1
NumberVar Total;
Total := 0;
Whilereadingrecords;
If in ["Pete","Mike","Tony"]  And
   in ["5001", "5030", "5031", "5032"] Then
   Total :=
Else
0;
Formula #2
NumberVar GroupTotal;
GroupTotal := 0;
GroupTotal := Sum({@Formula #1});

  • Problem with variables in formulas when using CrystalReportViewer

    Hi! I have a problem with variables in Crystal Reports formulas, when using CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms.CrystalReportViewer class from VS2005-project. ReportViewer always gives error:*************Crystal Report Windows Forms ViewerThis field name is not known.Details: errorKindError in File C:\{dir&#93;}\{file}.rpt:Error in formula <mCustomerAttributes>.'Dim result As String'This field name is not known.Details: errorKind ************* Report without variables works fine with Viewer and in Crystal Reports Designer report with variables works also fine. I have tried with both "formula-syntaxes" - basic and crystal. But Viewer always gives error when trying to define new variable.I think the problem might be with CR -versions, because VS-project has formerly been designed to VS2003 and CR9 or 10. Now I'm using VS2005 and CR11.

    Has anyone been able to answer this question?
    I am having the same problem:
    I am designing a report in Crystal Reports XI Developer that contains parameters, which are passed to a stored procedure and are also used within formulas ( in Crystal Syntax ie. {?FORMAT_ID} ) in the report itself.
    I can run the report successfully in CRXI Developer.  The formulas use the correct values from the parameters entered during execution and everything looks good.
    I then deploy the report to Business Objects Enterprise XI.  I do all of the things necessary to manage the report including setting up the proper database connection information and default parameter values.
    When I run the report using the Crystal Report Viewer, I get the following error message:
    Error in File Forecasting.rpt:
    Error in formula <Report Format>.
    'if (not isNull({?FORMAT_ID} ) ) then
    This field name is not known.
    Details: errorKind
    This happens when I press the "Preview" button in the Manage Object dialog from Crystal or when I run the report using InfoView.
    I have changed the formulas and it doesn't seem to matter what the specific content of the formula is; other than the existence of a parameter reference in the formula.  If I comment out the parameter and replace it with a hard-coded value, it gets through the formula fine.
    Does Business Objects Enterprise XI support crystal reports with parameter references in the formulas?
    Thanks,

  • Number database field treated as String in formula when using 64bit runtime

    Hey just a quick shout out to those with the above problem or those following the now "closed but unanswered" thread by the same name - if you're getting "A string is required here" error messages after switching over to the 64-bit runtime, or other weird loss of formatting issues, then try turning off the "Verify on First Refresh" or "Verify Stored Procedures on First Refresh" options in File | Report Options... as the case may be.

  • How to Suppress Report Total When Using Sum on Columns & Break Formatting

    I need to know how to NOT show the report total line when using the sum functionality with a break in a report.
    I am summing two columns, a debit amount and credit amount. I am breaking on the first column which is the level of a hierarchical query. I want to see something like this:
    Parent Record xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Parent Sum $$ $$
    Child Record xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Child Record xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Child Sum $$ $$
    However, when I run the report, I also get a report total line under the child sum which is really meaningless for this report.
    I have also tried creating this report as an interactive report. When applying the sum on the two columns, I do get the sum totals on the break only - no report total - however, it is reversing the order of the hierarchical query results putting the child records first and the parent records second.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi, and welcome!
    I don't think that there's an easy way to "switch off" the Total line on a report. The nearest I could suggest would be to either hide the entire row or colour the text so that it's the same as the background - either way, the total is calculated but the user won't see it.
    If you put something like the following into your report region's Region Footer:
    &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
    var outertable = document.getElementById("#REGION_ID#");
    var innertable = outertable.getElementsByTagName("TABLE")[1];
    var rs = innertable.rows;
    var lastrow = rs[rs.length-1];
    if (lastrow.cells[0].innerHTML == '&lt;b&gt;TOTAL&lt;/b&gt;')
    rs[rs.length - 1].style.display = "none";
    &lt;/script&gt;Then, on your report's Report Attributes page, scroll down to the Break Formatting section and put TOTAL into the "Display this text when printing report sums" setting. Also, in the "Layout and Pagination" section, set "Enable Partial Page Refresh" to No.
    The above code is based on the report and region templates that I'm using here: [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=267:147] (Theme 18, "Report Region" region template and "Standard" report template). Your report may use different templates, so the first two lines on the code may have to change. #REGION_ID# would be replaced with the region's ID value (which would be "R" followed by a long number). As long as you can identify the HTML tag that uses this ID value, you can then get to the actual table that contains the data as it would be a TABLE within that tag - the [1] above is the second table within the region. In some instances, you may have to use "region_#REGION_ID#" as the starting point.

  • Classloader Exception when using JSSE within WL 6.1 SP4

    I am trying to use JSSE to create my own SSL listener within weblogic. It works
    fine when I use it outside weblogic but I seem to run into a wierd classloader
    issue when I try to bring up the listener, from within weblogic, as part of a
    startup class.
    From what I can tell, weblogic seems to load some classes from the com.RSA.jsafe
    that are potentially unsigned or has a different signature than the classes that
    are loaded from jsse jar. This happens only when weblogic's SSL port is enabled.
    Anyone know how to get around this? The only way I was able to get around this
    is by specifying
    "com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider" as the first security provider in the
    java.security file but I would like to avoid this, if possible.
    java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: class com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.JSA_RSAKeyFactory
    configured for KeyFactory(provider: null) cannot be accessed.
    class "COM.rsa.jsafe.SunJSSE_aa"'s signer information does not match signer information
    of other classes in the same package

    Hi Yatin,
    I cannot comment on whether you have taken the correct approach but if you are
    not running Service Pack 2 I believe there are a couple of JSSE fixes in it.

    I believe the XSL to be correct because when I change it to a count it works and when I go into BI Publisher 11g and create the query in the data model and then create a summary from it, the summary is created.
    Can anyone help?

    I went back to basics and created reports (via EXCEL templates) like I was asking based on good old EMP and DEPT and I found exactly the same problems I was mentioning. I looked at the templates provided but they were not calculating totals, like me they were selecting them and then just displaying them on the page.
    Anyway, I have narrowed it down to the fact that when you do aggregates like sum(.//SAL) this works if you have a salary for every value. I did an outer join with DEPT so I did have empty rows and why I still experienced the problems.
    Basically XSL does not like adding (including using the sum function) values that effectively have nulls in them which is why I get the cast/constructor errors because it is trying to turn a NaN value to a number and does not (or cannot) do it.
    You need to either have a value in every row of your column (maybe possible by selecting nvl in your query) and make sure that you check the "create empty nodes" checkbox in the data model of BI Publisher.,
    the other solution is an xsl solution where you would have to make sure that you only added non null values and for that you would have to investigate xsl blogs.
    It is, by the way, why my count worked because it is just counting that the record exists it does not care what the element content is or isn't.

  • When using firefox and each time I open a new tab I end up with a split screen and it is annoying. How so I fix it.

    I open firefox. Go to website then where there is a + sign I open a new tab. A new tab comes up but then splits the screen into two with a new tab in the middle and I end up with 3 small split screens in the one instead of 3 separate tabs.because it is doing that i cannot then get a full screen and go about my usual business. Lately there seems to be numerous problems with fire fox loading also. it continues to come up with page not found and try again. I hit try again and then it may find the page. these are on sites that I access daily and have done so for several years now. Never before have I had so much trouble with fire fox. Not only I but we have four computers accessing the internet ...have done for some time and never had this problem but everyone is suddenly experiencing the same problem. The only thing new that has been put on the main computer is a K9 protection thing recently and I am wondering could that have anything to do with these issues and if not is fire fox having tech issues . How can these problems??

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Shadow Instance Left Behind in SLD After Using SUM

    Hello,
    Is there a standard procedure for removing the SLD information left behind by the creation of shadow ABAP instances when using SUM to update or upgrade systems? Should SUM have some final step for this built in, or should the update instructions include a step to go into SLD and delete the shadow instance information manually?
    My situation is as follows. I recently updated the support package stack for my Solution Manager 7.1 system from sps4 to sps12 using SUM (this was for a new installation of Solution Manager). Afterwards, I used SOLMAN_SETUP to perform the System Preparation and Basic Configuration steps, and now I have progressed to Managed System Configuration. The first managed system to configure is Solution Manager itself, and in working on the SolMan ABAP instance, in step 6, 'Enter Landscape Parameters,' I noticed that there is an extra ABAP instance, DVEBMGS03, showing up as a landscape object node. I was puzzled for a bit about this, as there is no instance 03 in my SolMan system, only 00, 01, and 02. Eventually I figured out that SOLMAN_SETUP gets this landscape information from the obvious place, LMDB, which in turn gets it from SLD, and sure enough in LMDB and SLD I can find the "AppServer 03" instance defined.
    That's when the light bulb hit. SUM creates a shadow ABAP instance when updating the support package stack (unlike using SPAM), similar to as it does during an upgrade. It deletes the shadow instance at the end of the update, but in the meantime the system has synchronized itself to SLD, and now SLD has a definition for that shadow instance that doesn't go away when the instance is deleted.
    It's easy enough to manually delete it in SLD, of course, but that leads me to wonder if there's a preferred option for handling this other than manual manipulation of SLD data.
    The version of SUM I used was 1.0 sp11 pl9.
    Regards,
    Matt

    That's right, although for a support pack update, I'm not sure if the jobs even get suspended. In the past, when doing this with SPAM, there was no shadow instance to worry about, so it wasn't an issue. In upgrades, when there typically is a shadow instance, things are much more "shut down" in the system (jobs suspended, etc) than is often the case with support pack updates (though perhaps those should be just as much "shut down").
    So in future I will definitely keep an eye out for it. Stopping the data supplier should be added to the tool and/or listed as a manual step in the guide to prevent inconsistent landscape and software component data from being replicated (or perhaps it already is and I missed it). I'm going to tag Boris Rubarth to get his take on it, as he is a key player in the development and maintenance of the SUM tool.
    Deleting the extra instance in SLD was very easy, and I watched it replicate to LMDB very quickly, and it immediately disappeared upon refresh from the managed system configuration tool. However, it later showed up in diagnostics agent administration, as well, as a warning about a system path not being reachable by the agent (it was trying to reach \usr\sap\SID\DVEBMGS03, which doesn't exist), and so I had to edit the agent landscape paths to remove that as well).
    Although the problem is long since solved in my system, as described above, I will keep the question open for a few more hours to see what Boris or others may have to add.

    Matt

  • HBR Error thrown when using @NEXTSIBLING or @SHIFTSIBLING within the FIX

    Hi,
    I'm working on a HBR that works fine, when using the following code:
    SET CREATENONMISSINGBLK ON;
    +FIX("BegBalance",[KHSA_PLAN2_ACCOUNT],[KHSA_PLAN2_CUSTOM3],[KHSA_PLAN2_CUSTOM4],"E-00000","FY10","Budget","Robocza",[KHSA_PLAN2_CURRENCY],HSP_InputValue)+
    FIX(T4)
    +"C2-00000"= 2;+
    ENDFIX
    ENDFIX
    Now, I'd like to use the @NEXTSIBLING or @SHIFTSIBLING within the second FIX statement, so the BR code looks like this:
    SET CREATENONMISSINGBLK ON;
    +FIX("BegBalance",[KHSA_PLAN2_ACCOUNT],[KHSA_PLAN2_CUSTOM3],[KHSA_PLAN2_CUSTOM4],"E-00000","FY10","Budget","Robocza",[KHSA_PLAN2_CURRENCY],HSP_InputValue)+
    FIX(@NEXTSIBLING(T4))
    +"C2-00000"= 2;+
    ENDFIX
    ENDFIX
    When launched, the HBR throws an error: Detail:Cannot calculate. Essbase Error(1200315): Error parsing formula for [FIX STATEMENT] (line 3): invalid object type
    I'm missing sth, am I not?
    Thanks for help, regards
    Marcin Stawny

    It truly helped, however I went further and wanted to use @SHIFTSIBLING where the shift integer comes from a sum of data values. The code looks like this:
    SET CREATENONMISSINGBLK ON;
    +FIX("BegBalance",[KHSA_PLAN2_ACCOUNT],[KHSA_PLAN2_CUSTOM3],[KHSA_PLAN2_CUSTOM4],"E-00000","FY10","Budget","Robocza",[KHSA_PLAN2_CURRENCY],HSP_InputValue)+
    FIX(@MEMBER(@SHIFTSIBLING("T1", (@SUM(@DESCENDANTS("Transactions"))))))_
    +"C2-00000"= 1;+
    ENDFIX
    ENDFIX
    The @SUM(@DESCENDANTS("Transactions")) calculates the sum properly (verified this part of the code in another place), however it seems that it has to be passed as an integer to the @SHIFTSIBLING, hasn't it?
    How can I do that?

  • Print time formula error when used in cross-tab

    I have a cross-table that I'm using to calculate revenue, which is based on a conditional formula.  Within that formula is a Running Total field.  When I use this field I get the following error message: "A PRINT TIME FORMULA THAT MODIFIES VARIABLES IS USED IN A CHART OR MAP".
    My problem is that I am using the Running Total because the values are duplicated by the number of detail lines.  I think this should be a relatively easy fix, but I am stumped.

  • Formula for Variance when using prompts

    Hi,
    I would like to know how to compute the variance between 2 years in a pivote table.
    I have the customer name and then the period key (01-2012, 01-2012...01-2013, 02-2013) and the calendar year in Columns. I selected to do a sum per year and per customer but I do not know how to compute the variance between the Year N and the Year N-1 in the pivot table, knowing that in a dashboard I have created a prompt which select the period key so that I have the same month for year N-1 and year N.
    Could you please help,
    I know that there is a complicated formula...and I would need some help,
    thank you,

    I tend to agree with the unitless concept.
    Interesting thing is this though. I just got a chance to break out my ipad during lunchtime and try the duration issue itself out (I dont think I had the duration portion known when i first posted).
    I dont get an error when using the division of two dollar values in the duration equation. I got 2w as my answer. (btw, duration in numbers is for formatting as a duration of weeks, months days... etc. didnt know if you realized that)
    I do get the error if I try to reference one fo the values without division, just the cell ref itself. I used "Value(B3)" and it converted to a base number and gave me my proper answer.
    Can you verify for me again please? I think you might be having another issue possibly.
    Thanks

  • I just bought a brand new iPhone 4s from a Three store. When I used the cloud restore to put the data from my old 3gs onto the device, it's prompting me for an Apple ID login with an email address that isn't mine!

    I just got a brand new iPhone 4S on a contract from my local Three store. When I used the cloud restore to put the data from my old 3GS onto the device, it's prompting me for an Apple ID login with an email address (hotmail) that isn't mine! My old phone has NEVER had any Apple ID other than mine log into it, and the new one's a sealed box that I've opened and set up from scratch. Can anyone please explain this? I'm worried there's some kind of problem with my iCloud data being mixed with someone else's or something... Since I logged in with my own ID, it's downloaded the data perfectly fine, but I just got the Apple ID prompt again a moment ago with this same hotmail address in it... I'd be very grateful for any explanation!

    In iTunes on your computer, select the Purchased section under STORE in the left column. Click on the first track and choose "Get Info" from the "File" menu.
    In the "Summary" tab you'll see details of the purchaser of the track. Click Next to go through all your purchased music one by one until you find the ones you need to get rid of.
    Unfortunately, there are no smart playlist rules that can filter tracks by the purchaser that I know of.

I can do this from Finder, although it does prompt me for my password to do so. However, when using 'Save As' from any app, the 'New Folder' button is greyed out when I select my user home directory. So I have to create the folder in Finder then Save As.
    Is this normal behavior? Is OSX discouraging me from adding things to my user home directory by making it less convenient? Is there a good reason it would be discouraging me from creating new folders there? If not, is there a setting that I can change to allow the creation of new folders from the Save As prompt?
    Thanks for your help,

    You may need to rebuild permissions on your user account. To do this,boot to your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys while booting) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type:  ‘resetpassword’ (without the ’s), hit return, and select the admin user. You are not going to reset your password. Click on the icon for your Macs hard drive at the top. From the drop down below it select the user account which is having issues. At the bottom of the window, you'll see an area labeled Restore Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the reset button there. The process takes a few minutes. When complete, restart.
