Top N Group by

Hi All,
I have to create report for top 20 values by Division. DIvision and Service Requests are coming from Subject Area ( We don't have access for rpd . we have to work with subject area onlY)
How can i display top 20 values for each division.
i did try with TOPN(COUNT(DISTINCT "Service Request".SR),20). and
COUNT(DISTINCT "Service Request".SR by "Service Request".Division)
but its not working each and every division.
Could you please help me on this issue.
Thanks in Advance

You can also one more thing. Sort your report by COUNT(DISTINCT "Service Request".SR) in desc order. and one more column RCOUNT(1) and put a filter on RCOUNT(1) column as <=20. So that you will get top 20 records.

How do I change the number in a Top N Group Sort

I have a report that I have grouped on a particular field (Cust.Name specifically). I then used the group sort expert and selected the Top N selection in the combo box under the Cust.Name tab. I put in a default number of 20. What I want to do is to set this number for the Top N group sort via .NET. Does anyone know the correct method for doing this in either VB.NET or C#.NET. I am using VS 2005 Pro and the embedded Crystal Reports engine for VS.NET. Thank you.

Hello, Edgar;
In the bundled version of Crystal Reports 10.2 in Visual Studio .NET 2005 you will need to use the following code:
Private Sub Set_TopN()
        Dim TopNSortField As TopBottomNSortField
        'Get the Sort field by index
        'Cast it as a TopBottomNSortField
        If TypeOf crReportDocument.DataDefinition.SortFields.Item(0) Is TopBottomNSortField Then
            TopNSortField = crReportDocument.DataDefinition.SortFields.Item(0)
            TopNSortField.NumberOfTopOrBottomNGroups = 10
        Else
            TopNSortField = Nothing
        End If
    End Sub
In a full version of Crystal Reports there is an option to create a parameter as a number such as {?TopN} and then pass the value to it at runtime.
In the Crystal Reports designer you need to create the parameter and then go to Report|Group Sort Expert.
Choose TopN based on your field.
Where N is... You will need a number there. I used 1. But then I clicked on the Formula editor [X+2] and added the parameter field {?TopN}.
Passing the parameter at runtime ran the number I requested.

Use parameter to specify "N" in Top N Group Sort

I've successfuly set up a parameter which is passed to the Group N Sort criteria.
Is there a way I can use this to set NO group sort? I've tried setting it to zero & 999999999 but it falls over.

I think you can enter the values only between 1 to 32767. You can try creating a sample report with groups in it and go to group sort expert and select top N and try to add the value 0 then you will get a popup saying "Please enter an integer between 1 and 32767"

Top N Group Sort

Hi all,
I have a report that does a group sort just to show the top 20. I've been asked to do one to show top 50.
Rather than having two reports can I pass 20 or 50 as a parameter to the group sort? If so, how is this done?

The 20 is currently set in the group sort expert.
So ideally I'd like to pass 20 or 50 as a parameter to it but I can't see how to do this.

On my mac, I just installed lion. My emails now roll up to a top level when it is a group message. I do not want that. I want to receive each email separate

I'm not sure where to write my question. It is a display question. I just installed lion on my Mac. Now my emails roll into a top level group email, instead on listing all my emails. How do I change that? Thanks Donna

You are running Lion or Mountain Lion? Your profile shows Mountain Lion.
I'm on Mountain Lion, but this may have been the same in Lion? A wild guess: do you have this choice in your menu bar in Mail - organize by conversation (and is it checked):

Display image in detail groups in jheadstart 11.1.1.3.35

Hi, I've been trying to make a project that should display one picture in one of the detail groups. but when i generate the jheadstart definition editor and run the project, it shows an empty box for the image (image is not loaded).
I've seen the source code and every thing seems right and when i use that detail group as a master group the image display just fine.
is jheadstart 11g have a problem for displaying image in detail groups? because I've heard this option works in 10g pretty fine.
please help me how i can fix this problem and i have to say my project deadline is coming :(

We are not aware of such a problem.
To really check whether it is related to a detail group, can you temporarily make the detail group a top-level group, generate and run your application to see whether the problem goes away?
Make sure you first uncheck the Same Page checkbox before you drag and drop the detail group to become a top group.
There is a known ADF issue that when you upload a new image, the new image is only shown when you restart the session.

EC CS Consolidation - How can i set up Consolidation for Corporate Group

I have a task to set up consolidation for a Corporate group that has only the corporate office running on SAP and the other 18 subsidiaries are on other systems . Within the 18 subsidiaries there are 2 companies that are assoicates.The corporate group also does limited accounting transactions approx 4 invoices per month for 3 discontinued companies but not yet divested.
The 18 subsidiaries are also broken down into sub groups by type of operations e.g. Retail, Financial services, Investments, Property etc and these also groups need to be reported in a separate report over and above the Main Group Financial reports and the report must show each group (segment) on its own. -- Is there a Standard report that helps me achieve this kind of reportring
The 2 companies that are assoicates should they be created as a group if they are to be reported as a separate subgroup.
Should i create the 3 discontinued companies as company codes or business area .
If i am to create them as company codes what are the advantages and disadvantages.
If i am to create them as Business Areas how will i incorporate them into Consolidation if I am to use Company Conslidation dimension .
How best can i set up my consolidation structures ..
Please advise

Dear Stanley,
please create two different dimensions:
one for company consolidation with cons units = company codes
one for business area consolidation with cons units = business areas
Do not forget to mark the parent cons unit and create a top cons group.
Cheers,

Getting the first row for each group

Hi Everyone,
I have a query which returns a number of rows, all of which are valid. What I need to do is to get the first row for each group and work with those records.
For example ...
client flight startairport destairport stops
A fl123 LGW BKK 2
A fl124 LHR BKK 5
B fl432 LGW XYZ 7
B fl432 MAN ABC 8
.... etc.
I would need to return one row for Client A and one row for Client B (etc.) but find that I can't use the MIN function because it would return the MIN value for each column (i.e. mix up the rows). I also can use the rownum=1 because this would only return one row rather than one row per group (i.e. per client).
I have been investigating and most postings seem to say that it needs a second query to look up the first row for each grouping. This is a solution which would not really be practical because my query is already quite complex and incorporating duplicate subqueries would just make the whole thing much to cumbersome.
So what I really new is a "MIN by group" or a "TOP by group" or a "ROWNUM=1 by group" function.
Can anyone help me with this? I'm sure that there must be a command to handle this.
Regards and any thanks,

Something like this:
select *
from (
   select table1.*
   row_number() over (partition by col1, col2 order by col3, col4) rn
   from table1
where rn = 1In the "partition by" clause you place what you normally would "group by".
In the "order by" clause you define which will have row_number = 1.
Edit:
PS. The [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e17118/functions004.htm#i81407]docs have more examples on using analytical functions ;-)

PS CS6: It'd be helpful to have the option to collapse or expand the nested groups and layers.

PS CS6: It'd be helpful to have the option to collapse or expand the nested groups and layers all at once. Autodesk Maya has a similar feature in it's outliner that allows for you to do this.

And as Jeffrey Tranberry answered there:
• Open/close all layer groups (folders) at the current level of hierarchy: Cmd-click the arrow next to the group - This is handy when you want to open/close, say, all the top-level groups without disturbing the open/closed state of any groups nested within them.
• Open/close all layer groups nested within the current one: Opt-click the arrow next to the group - This is nice when you want to open/shut a bunch of nested groups, without affecting any that lie outside the target group.
• Open/close all layer groups, period: Cmd-Opt-click the arrow next to a group So, to keep things simple: when in doubt, Cmd-Opt-click a group’s arrow and you’ll collapse/expand all groups.
* On Windows please substitutes Ctrl for Cmd and Alt for Opt. .

How do i create a group contact on iphone4

Hi, how do I create a group contact on the iPhone 4 when sending group text and group emails?

Hi
600 for my work
Note that many email providers place limits on how many people you can address with a single email. 100 contacts is a typical limit (for iCloud.com, Gmail.com etc.) In that case no app will let you send a single email to that many contacts at once, and you should consider an online service such as mailchimp.com
If your groups are less than 100, or your provider does not impose a limit, I'd like to suggest our "MailShot Pro" app, which has been one of the top-selling group email apps for over a year. Unlike most other group email apps, it creates special contacts for your groups which you can then use directly from Mail, and tens of thousands of other compatible apps. Over 250,000 people are now using it, and it is always ranked highly in search results for group email apps.
You can find it on the App Store here:MailShot Pro
A free version is also available, for creating a few small groups. MailShot (Note that certain other apps marketed as "free" will similarly only let you send to small groups without an upgrade)

PDEXGroup to set the Page Group ColorSpace

Hello,
I'm currently trying to add an Image into a PDF (that's the only content) but as I read on previous threads I'm trying to get a correct rendering when there is an alpha (channel/mask) in my image.
To do so I first create an Image (PDEImageCreate) then I create the Alpha mask and apply it to the first image (using PDEImageSetSMask).
The problem is now my image is too dark in "Acrobat Reader" and is correct in Evince. So I guess my problem is Acrobat try to blend in CMYK but my source image is in RGB.
But I don't really understand how I should/could specify that ? I tried in the Resources of the Page, and then I tried the PDEXGroup, but how can I add my XObject to the PDEXGroup ?
Am I on the wrong track trying to set the Page ColorSpace ?
Thanks in advance.

Following your indication I re-read the paragraph relating to Transparency group. starting with the 11.4.7.
All of the elements painted directly onto a page—both top-level groups and top-level objects that are not part of any group—shall be treated as if they were contained in a transparency group P
My main question here is how do I get access to this "group P" ?
Because I didn't found how, I searched "how to specify a blending" which leads me to paragrap 11.6.3
11.6.3    Specifying Blending Colour Space and Blend Mode The blending colour space shall be an attribute of the transparency group within which an object is painted; its specification is described in 11.6.6, "Transparency Group XObjects."
Ok so how to define a Transparency group is in 11.6.6 (still my original question)
Summarized : a transparency group is a specialized form XObject with a Group entry in its dictionnary. (Group with subtype "/S /Transparency") Also a Page may have a Group entry (some entries in this dictionnary may be interpreted differently when in a Page group).
So (again) I looked at the right paragraph to make a Group 8.10.3, "Group XObjects".
This paragraph finally describe what the CosObj should look like I expect it to be something like :
6 0 obj                                % Form XObject
   << /Type /XObject
      /Subtype /Form
      /FormType 1
      /BBox [ 0 0 1000 1000 ]
      /Group <>      /Matrix [ 1 0 0 1 0 0 ]
      /Resources << /ProcSet [ /PDF ] >>      /Length 58
    >>stream
endstream
endobj
But alas my main concern is still here, how do I add a PDEImage in a PDEGroup or PDEForm or CosObj and then overwrite the Page content with this new content in order to change the default Blending ColorSpace ?
You said to use the Cos API but what the Cos Object should look likes when the Color Blend Space is correctly set ?
Below there is some code sample that I used to get this working.

2 Repeating Frames based on the same group

I have this report which contains 3 groups, I have the requirement to break the 2nd group so that I create a 'footer' based on the 2nd group.
I have created 2 repeating frames (one which holds the account number, payment terms, currency) and the 2nd repeating frame based on the same group which contains the bank details
My report looks like this:
(1st Group)
Customer xxxxx
Address xxxxx
(2nd Group)
Account No xxxxx
Payment Terms xxxxx
Currency xxx
(3rd Group -repeating)
Trans id xxx
amount xxx
(2nd Group)
Bank Details xxxxxxxxxx <--will only have one per account
I had originally designed the report using 2 identical frame structure.
e.g.
Main
Repeating Group Customer
Repeating Group Account
Repeating Group Transactions
Footer
Repeating Group Customer
Repeating Group Account
This format worked when the Main group did not go over a page. The 2 Account Groups were coordinated.
When the Main group extended to more than one page, the 2 Account Groups did not match.
The jest of what I am trying to do is a footer of the bank details be printed at the bottom of the page always.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

I didn't realise that this was such a difficult problem to solve. The requirements are quite simple (I thought)
1) Query
3) Groups
a) Company
b) Accounts
c) Transactions
My report needs to look like this:
{page 1}
COMPANY XXXXX
ACCOUNT: 123
Invoice ID Amount
aaaaaaaaaa 111.11
bbbbbbbb 111.11
Sub Total 222.22
--> To be printed at a predefined space on the physical page on each page. bold Bank Details for Account 123: xxxx bold
{page 2}
COMPANY XXXXX
ACCOUNT: 456
Invoice ID Amount
aaa 10
bbb 20
ccc 30
ddd 40
....<as many records that will force a second page
--> but..this still needs to print!!!To be printed at a predefined space on the physical page on each page. bold Bank Details for Account 456: xxxx bold
{page 3}
zzz 100
Sub Total 1000
--> To be printed at a predefined space on the physical page on each page. bold Bank Details for Account 456: xxxx bold
Say the next records in the query are for
COMPANY XXXXX, ACCOUNT 789 with one detail record.
COMPANY XXXXX, ACCOUNT 321 with multiple details records which will force a second page.
What is happening at the moment is that the 2 repeating frames based on the Account Group,
the first 2 pages will print out correctly, however, because the 2nd account goes over 2 pages and how I have this set the structure of the report (see above post), the bottom Account Group thinks that the account number is now 789 when in fact the top account group is still on 456
I really hope that this is clearer.
I am working on Reports 10g on a 10g database
I have tried to create a ref cursor & separate the query to bring back bank details. but with no luck.
A person had suggested that I create a separate frame and hold the bank details, which is fine. but as I previously stated, those bank details need to print on every page at a specific area on the physical page.
If this might be of use:
Repeating Frame Group Customer, Vertical & Horizontal elasticity Fixed
Repeating Frame Group Account, Vertical Elasticity: Variable & Horizontal - Fixed
Repeating Frame Group Transations, Vertical Elasticity: Expand & Horizontal - Fixed

Subtotal in Matrix reports at break groups - very urgent

Hello,
I have a matrix group with 2 break groups above.
So I have
Group 1
Group 2
G_Cross
G_Column
G_Row
The wizard gave me the subtotal for Group2. I cannot figure how I can get subtotal for Group 1 which is the top break group. Please Please help.
I also wanted to find out if there is a way to show the variable columns only once in the report and not every time the break groups kicks in?
Thanks a lot in advance.
-Rishi

The fact that you have a matrix further down the group hierarchy doesn't affect how you create summaries in the break groups. The wizard only gets you so far. For more advanced functionality you need to go into the data model & layout painter.
In this case, you need to create a summary column in the "Group 1" break group. Set the source as the appropriate column and the "Reset At" property to "Group 1". To add the summary to the layout; run the wizard (since the column is already there) or manually add a field to the corresponding "Group 1" repeating frame in the layout.
If you only want to see the break columns on the first page and not every page of the break group then set the following properties:
PrintObjectOn: FirstPage
BasePrintingOn: EnclosingObject
The object will then only print on the first page that the enclosing object prints on. ie: You wont get these objects repeated if the enclosing object extends onto another page.

Currency tranlation in case of Multiple group currency

From SAP help:
You want to report in two currencies on the subgroup level: You disclose the subgroup result in the first group currency while reporting the subgroup result to corporate headquarters in their group currency
My scenario:
I have subgroups B,C and top consolidation group as A
Subgroups B, C consolidate in EUR and Group A in USD.
1)
When i want to run my consolidation for sub groups -
All i have to do is go and change the group currency in my Permanent parameters.
Is this correct?
Also - can i use a copy function in this case (i.e. without creating any versions)?
(System does not allow me to specify a source and target grp currency without specifying the source and target versions)
2)
If I want to achieve this by multiple versions
I configure -3 consolidation versions - 001, 002 n 003
Make consolidation unit hierarchy as version dependent (define and assign Spl versions)
In my versions 002, 003 i maintain only the consolidation subgroups B n C respectively.
Create a Copy function which involves-
Three Copy methods X, Y n Z;
One copy Task with method assignment dependent on Company
Assign methods accordingly to each company.
Is this the correct way to do it or is there an alternative through special versions definition for Copy?
Do i have to worry about anything else?
Thanks in Advance!

1. Yes - change grp curr in parameters and execute copy and translation - source and target versions may be the same
2. because you have chosen to use different version for each grp curr, the above mentioned copy must be for differing source and target versions
I see no reason to make hierarchy version-dependent other than to exclude group A from having both EUR and USD grp currs. However, it is perfectly okay to have this dependency.
Unless there is missing information, I see no reason for separate copy methods/tasks or for assigning copy methods based on company.

Order based on material group

Hello,
In our current system the system looks on based of the Requisitioner and under which Purchasing Group the Requisitoner is set under PPOMA_BBP where the Purchase Requisition is going. Then the Purchaser can create a Purchase Order. Under each Purchasing Group is an appointed Purchaser.
Weu2019d like to change this proces. We want this change based on material group. However, when multiple Purchasing Groups use the same material groups than the system always looks for the top Purchasing Group. This is not the intention. Can this set separately in PPOMA_BBP? Or elsewhere in the system?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Petra de Winter
