To_number with period and comma

As a part of a validation function I have to validate strings against a valid number format. The following weird behaviour I have spot during the implementation.
SQL> select TO_NUMBER('1.1.1.1,11','9G999D99') from dual;
TO_NUMBER('1.1.1.1,11','9G999D99')
1111,11
SQL> select TO_NUMBER('1.1.11,11','9G999D99') from dual;
TO_NUMBER('1.1.11,11','9G999D99')
1111,11
SQL> select TO_NUMBER('1.111,11','9G999D99') from dual;
TO_NUMBER('1.111,11','9G999D99')
1111,11
SQL> select TO_NUMBER('1111,11','9G999D99') from dual;
select TO_NUMBER('1111,11','9G999D99') from dual
FEHLER in Zeile 1:
ORA-01722: Ungltige Zahl
'1.111,11' should be valid only. Is it a bug or my misconception?
These statements ran on Release 11.1.0.6.0.

Sorry, I've I forgot to mention that my nls_numeric_characters parameter is set to ',.' already.
SQL> select VALUE from NLS_SESSION_PARAMETERS where PARAMETER='NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS';
VALUE
Anyway, with the nls_numeric_character parameter passed to the function these statements did not produce any error.
SQL> select TO_NUMBER('1.1.1.1,11','9G999D99','nls_numeric_characters=,.') from dual;
TO_NUMBER('1.1.1.1,11','9G999D99','NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS=,.')
1111,11
SQL> select TO_NUMBER('1.1.11,11','9G999D99','nls_numeric_characters=,.') from dual;
TO_NUMBER('1.1.11,11','9G999D99','NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS=,.')
1111,11
I except an error to be thrown. Obviously both numbers '1.1.1.1,11' and '1.1.11,11' did not match the mask '9G999D99'.

Possible to control space after periods and commas?

There's a font i'd like to use as a body text font, but sometimes the spaces after periods and commas are inadequate. Is there a way to control this in InDesign? or must this be resolved by manipulating the font in a font editor?
thanks
Kurt Hoffman

but sometimes the spaces after periods and commas are inadequate...
I'm not sure either solution will really work well with justified text.
When you say sometimes, it sounds like your text is justified and the space after periods is variable. Peter's GREP solutions would track the space after a period but the amount would still be variable when the text is justified. So you could also look at the Justification setting for the style:
The default Justification setting which allows a significant difference between min and max word spacing, and no difference in letter spacing:
Changing the Word Spacing to 90% | 100% | 120% and the letter spacing to -2% | 0% | 2% creates a more consistent space after the periods.

Problem with sqlldr and commit

Hi,
i have a problem with sqlldr and commit.
I have a simple table with one colum [ col_id number(6) not null ]. The column "col_id" is primary key in the table. I have one file with 100.000 records ( number from 0 to 99.999 ).
I want load the file in the table with sqlldr ( sql*loader ) but i want commit only if all records are loaded. If one record is discarded i want discarded all record of file.
The proble is that in coventional path the commit is on 64 row but if i want the same records of file isn't possible and in direct path sqlldr disable primary key :(
There are a solutions?
Thanks

Why does the iPhone Keyboard have a reversed period and comma from the normal keyboard?

Agreed. Even the iPhone has multiple built-in keyboards to choose from.

How do I control a data log session with period and sample time?

I need a data logging system where the operator can select 2 logging parameters: Log Period and Sample Time. I also need a START and STOP button to control the logging session. For example, set the log period for 1 hour and the sampling time for 1 second. (I may be using the wrong jargon here.) In this case when the START button is clicked, the system starts logging for 1 second. An hour later, it logs data for another second, and so on until the operator clicks the STOP button. (I will also include a time limit so the logging session will automatically stop after a certain amount of time has elapsed.)
It’s important that when the STOP button is clicked, that the system promptly stops logging. I cannot have the operator wait for up to an hour.
Note that a logging session could last for several days. The application here involves a ship towing a barge at sea where they want to monitor and data log tow line tension. While the system is logging, I need the graph X-axis (autoscaled) to show the date and time. (I’m having trouble getting the graph to show the correct date and time.) For this application, I also need the system to promptly start data logging at a continuous high rate during alarm conditions.
Of course I need to archive the data and retrieve it later for analysis. I think this part I can handle.
Please make a recommendation for program control and provide sample code if you can. It’s the program control concepts that I think I mostly need help here. I also wish to use the Strip Chart Update Mode so the operator can easily view the entire logging session.
DAQ Hardware: Not Selected Yet
LabVIEW Version: 6.1 (Feel free to recommend a v7 solution because I need to soon get it anyway.)
Operating System: Win 2000
In summary:
How do I control a graphing (data log) session for both period and sample time?
How do I stop the session without having to wait for the period to end?
How do I automatically interrupt and control a session during alarm conditions?
Does it make a difference if there is more than one graph (or chart) involved where there are variable sample rates?
Thanks,
Dave

Hello Dave,
Sounds like you have quite the system to set up here. It doesn�t look like you are doing anything terribly complicated. You should be able to modify different examples for the different parts of your application. Examples are always the best place to start.
For analog input, the �Cont Acq&Chart (buffered).vi� example is a great place to start. You can set the scan rate (scans/second) and how many different input channels you want to acquire. This example has its own stop button; it should be a simple matter to add a manual start button. To manually set how long the application runs, you could add a 100 ms delay to each iteration of the while loop (recommended anyway to allow processor to multi-task) and add a control that sets the number
of iterations of the while loop.
For logging data, a great example is the �Cont Acq to File (binary).vi� example.
For different sample rate for different input lines, you could use two parallel loops both running the first example mentioned above. The data would not be able to be displayed on the same graph, however.
If you have more specific questions about any of the different parts of your application, let me know and I�ll b happy to look further into it.
Have a nice day!

Great shortcut for periods and commas!

Apologies if this is has been posted previously, but found it so useful think it warrants repeating!
Basically, you can type a period with ease if you simply press the ‘.?123’ key, then keep your finger on the screen and just slide it up and over a bit to the period when the numeric keypad appears. Amazingly, this key reacts as soon as your finger touches it (no lifting required), and the numeric keypad will automatically disappear when it does, leaving you right back where you started with the normal keyboard active—and with a period in your document! And instead of multiple taps, it took but one.
It works for the comma as well, you just change the angle of the "slide".
Original post is here: http://missingmanuals.com/poguesawesome_iphone_typingshortcut.csp
MacBook Pro 15" Mac OS X (10.4.10)

This tip is really, really great.
Apple should document this... With this, there's no need for any changes to the keyboard layout...
This little slide move works fast and perfectly every time... (And works for any of the NON ABC keys too)

Pekwm menu action with spaces and commas

Hello,
I have problems with few wine actions in pekwm menu.
The action path contains spaces, and wine syntax requires commas to correctly read it.
The problem is that pekwm syntax also requires commas, so the action doesn't work in the menu.
The same commands launched from terminal work flawlessly.
Does anyone know the correct syntax I should use?
Thank you in advance

Period and Period interval.

I am confused with period and period interval. "As many periods as required can be open simultaneously. However, only two period intervals can be open at the same time". This is the statement I saw in the book. Can somebody explain it more.

Dear,
I am confused with period and period interval.
Period is nothing but the standalone value which means only one. For e.g. 1
Period interval is nothing but the range which include period. For e.g. 1 to 8

TVARV - Dynamic Period and Year

Hi,
A standard FI report is executed weekly in batch job. The selection screen for the report has the following fields: Period and Year. We need the following:
1) A report variant that takes the current period and current year
2) A report variant that takes the previous period and current year
I know that it is possible to have dynamic dates (Current / date calculations), but is it possible with period and year as well ina variant?
What do the variables in TVARV table "SAP_SCMA_PERIOD" and "SAP_SCMA_FISC_YEAR" do?
Since this is a standard report, what could be the solution?
Awaiting response.

Hi Anuritha,
Did you able to solve this problem. Basically I am also in the same situation, so it would be great help if you suggest me what needs to be done exactely !
How did you manage the variants SAP_SCMA_FISC_YEAR & SAP_SCMA_PERIOD in TVARV table to work accordengly.
Looking forward for your reply.
--Thanks

Opportunity Product reporting with # of Periods and Frequency

We are just about to roll out out a business unit and they will be using the frequency, number of periods, and the start/close date fields on the revenue record.
In staging, I created a test report and it 'explodes' the product to have 12 individual entires, since I picked 12 as the number of periods. I set the qty to 60 and all 11 months have 60 but the first month has 61. Is there a reason for that?

Product: you do get the dimensions and facts for the Product object... so you'd build a report with Product information
Opportunity-Product: you do get dimensions and facts for the Products related to an opportunity... so you'd build a report with Opportunity and Product information

Issue with Transporting Trans and Comm Structure

Hi Experts,
Recently we moved an Infosource ( with Transfer structure and Comm stucture) from D to Q. After movement we checked teh Transport log and we see a warning that says
" R3TRROUT458SEFRDF2PUBJRIZGZAOPSNB not found, object also deleted in target system"
From teh object name it appears like a routine. But how do we know the actual name of the routine so that we can see in find out and compare betwn systems.
Thanks
DVMC

Hi,
If you want to find the objects using only technical name, use the table TADIR.
In your case execute this table and give the technical name
'458SEFRDF2PUBJRIZGZAOPSNB' (Removed R3TR and ROUT).
Then you can get the routine details.

There are 2 concepts attached to a bank balance. The balance as per your books of accounts and another is the balance maintained with the bank. I believe i need not explain these 2 concepts. These 2 balances can be obtained from Oracle system provided some of prerequsities are met with.
Balance as per your books - This is nothing but the GL balance available. In order to obtain balances for each bank accounts, it is advised that each bank account should have a separate account code combination. This is achieved generally by having a separate natural account for each bank. The code combination is attached to the cahs account for each bank. By maintaining separate account code combination, the balance in each code combination can be obtained from GL (provided transactions are accounted and posted in GL). These balances represent the balance for each bank according to your books of accounts. You can create an FSG for this purpose and provide the same to the customer, so that they can run the same whenevr they want.
Balance as per bank - This balance is maintained by oracle in 2 ways - either the bank balance can be manually entered for each bank account for each date (quite cumbersome). Else, while loading the bank statement, the bank balances are also loaded. There are various types of bank balances stored - value dated balance, available balance, float balance etc. Depending on the balances provided by bank along with the bank statement, the bank balance can be recorded in oracle system. After the bank statement is uploaded and balances stored, standard cash management reports are available to query for the bank account balances. In order to view daily movement, the bank statement should be loaded on daily basis.
Hope this helps.

Facing issues with 3g Mobile Data Usage Current Period and Apps Volumes are differ.

Hi All,
i am facing some data mismatch with my iphones. the actual mobile data usage volume and data usage for Apps volumes are showing different data.
for eg : Mobile Data Usage - Current Data Usage - Current Period volumes showing 342 MB but if i check the Use Mobile Data For Apps Volumes for all Apps including System Service Data's and Uninstalled Data's are showing very less ( around 200 MB only ) compare with Current Period Volumes.
Mobile Data Usage - Current Data Usage - Current Period and Use Mobile Data For Apps ( Apps wise data usage ) Data's are not matching..
Please let me know will it show like that only or its an issue ???? if you want i can share the screen shot as well.

Data Migration of Contracts with periodic billing and revenue recognition

Hello Experts,
I am trying to develop a legacy data migration plan for Contracts with periodic billing plan and revenue recognition.
Example of the scenario is given below:
Customer signed a contract for one year starting 01/01/2009.
Customer is billed quartely, billed in advance.
SAP going live on 04/01/2009
Customer is billed for 3 months and also for initial set up fees.
Revenue recognition is done monthly.
We have to migrate this contract to SAP.
Billing document posting may be necessay as it affects revenue recognition which spans across the total contract period.
Any ideas how to do this?
Thanks A Lot
Anil
Edited by: Anil Jose on Sep 17, 2008 9:38 PM

Hi Anil
How did you manage this? We also had the same problem in one of our contracts and what we did was that we copied the contracts from the legacy with the full value. That is suppose SAP went live on 1st April, 2009 and the contract was created on 1st January 2009 for a value of suppose 100 USD, with the first billing being done on 1st Jan for 33.33 USD for 4 months. We first created the contract with a validity from 1st Jan 2009 in the new system. We billed it with a billing type that we created that did not actually create new accounting entries as the accounting entries had already been created in the legacy system. In the new system then we recognised the revenue till the go live, so that the actual value remaining of the contract reduced. Then we started the billing plan of the contract from 1st of April 2009 for the remaining amount. So next invoice was created on 1st april for 33.33 USD. Can you share your solution.

Problem with Fiscal Period and regarding...

Hi all,
         I have a particular query in which posting period and fiscal year are the characteristic variables(mandatory and single values) . I have to define Rolling Year To Date variable/ User exit such that when the user enters posing period and fiscal year query has to fetch previous 12 periods data from the cube..
       If posting period is 005 and fiscal year is 2007 then the output for a particular balance Keyfigure has to be from 005-2007 to 006-2006.
     The thing is we dont have Fiscal period defined in the cube . One possible solution is Using the Offsets if we are are goin to offset on the previous 12 periods, is the query going to fetch the correct values.
    Other thing we can think of is user exits can some one share the logic regarding this... if we have to user the user exits. Promise to award full points.
regards,
sasidhar gunturu

Sasidhar,
Since you have posting period and fiscal year separately, you need not think of going for an exit. You can simply use offsets on both so that they will fetch right data. Since there are two separate objects offsets should fetch correct data. Go ahead with offsets.....
