Totals of calculated field w/ PL/SQL function

I have a worksheet with a numeric field that is calculated using
a registered PL/SQL function. When I add totals to the sheet, no
total appears for this column. Is this a known issue, or is
there something else going on?
Thanks,
Charles

I have the same problem. I used to work with Discoverer 4 and all the totals were there, but after the upgrade to 9.0.4 the totals for the calculated items that are based on stored procedures are gone. It has something to do with the procedures because the calculated items that do not call procedures do have the totals.
What is meant by the default setting of "Data point"? I cannot find anything like it in the administrator.....

TOTAL     22     37021               5     30271          PROBLEM: I need to have a running total of IPTV like in the above example. I can get the IPTV for each DIS/bld_mo but I don't know how to get the running total of it. In the script below I just used an example where I tried summing the IPTV like was done for build. I know it can't be done that way because IPTV is a calculated field in the query but if I substitute "APR_IPTV" with the formula for IPTV I get an error that window functions aren't allowed here. I do not know a way around this. I commented out the bad piece of code.

;Thank you,

Hi,
So you know how to compute iptv for an individual row; the problem now is that you want to get a running total of iptv; is that it?
The problem there is that computing iptv requires an analytic function, and analytic functions can't be nested. To get the results of nesting f (g (x)), where f and g are analytic funtions, you have to compute g in a sub-query, and then use the results as the argument to f in a super-query.
Here's how to apply that to your situation:

You asked for NULLS in the may11_rep, may11_bld and may11_iptv columns. You can get those results if you need them; just explain the rules that govern whether to display the values and when to display NULL.
The way you posted the sample data and results, and the quantity of sample data were all excellent; it really helped me find a solution. Thanks.
It would have also helped it you had explained how iptv is computed. Basically, iptv = 1000 * rep / tbld, right?
It looks like most of this code:
,      DECODE(NVL ( SUM (may11_bld)
                  OVER (ORDER BY dis DESC)
                ,                 0),0,0,ROUND(NVL(may11_rep, 0)*1000/ NVL ( SUM (may11_bld)
                  OVER (ORDER BY dis DESC)
                ,                 0),2
                ))        AS may11_iptvwas a way of avoiding divide by 0 errors; it would have been helpful if you had explained that.

Total of calculated fields

In a page-detail table report, there are several numeric fields which must be totalled at the end of the report.
Some of the fields are calculated ones, i.e. a dollar amount multiplied by a conversion rate.
The total of the calculated fields are always blank whether I run the report in DESKTOP or I run the report in PLUS.
Any suggestions?
Thank you.
Leah

HI,
Two things you should try:
a) put a to_number(nvl(field,0)) on the calculation
b) Try cell sum instead of regular sum.
Hope it will help you solve the problem

Totalling a calculated field in end of report

Hi I have a formula field (F087/F050) in the report Repetitive Area0 and I want to total the results of these line by line amounts in the 'End of Report'
Please can someone explain how to compose the field I need in the End of Report
Thanks
Dom

Hi Dom,
You may use ColSum(FXXX) to get the total in the 'End of Report'.

How to create a calculated field

Hi. I'd like to know how to create a calculated field for a master- detail form. For example: having two db fields price and quantity, i created a the total item (price * quantity) as pl/sql function like this:
begin
:p13_item_total := :p13_price * :p13_quantity;
end;
However, the item is not calculated. It is not and instant calculation. I mean if i modify either price or quantity, how to recalculate item total immediately

You must submit the page to do it with PL/SQL. If you do not want to submit the page, you must do it with JavaScript.
Thanks,
Tyler

New Calculated field question. Complicated I think.

I have managed to create this table from a MySQL database: http://ppbm5.com/DB-PPBM5.php
The field 'Total' is a calculated field using this SQL query:
$query_Recordset1 = 'SELECT *, `Disk I/O`+`MPEG2-DVD`+`H264-BR`+IFNULL(`MPE On`,`MPE Off`) As Total, `CPU`*`Cores` As Phys_Cores FROM `Personal_data` WHERE 1 ORDER BY (`Disk I/O`+`MPEG2-DVD`+`H264-BR`+IFNULL(`MPE On`,`MPE Off`)), `Date & Time` ASC';
So far, so good, but as you may have noticed, there is a next field called 'Rel. Perf.' which only contains blanks. And that is where my problems start.
The table is sorted by 'Total' and the first record shows these figures and field names that are relevant for my question:
Fields: 'Total' 'Disk I/O' 'MPEG2-DVD' 'H.264-BR' 'MPE On' 'MPE Off'
Values: 131, 67, 21, 37, 6, 64
In addition, I use four 'weight' figures, let's say these are 0.27 , 0.30 , 0.20 and 0.23 denoted as W1, W2, W3, W4.
First step is to calculate four temp values, using a formula like this resulting in T1, T2, T3 and T4:
T1 = W1 x Total /Disk I/O; T2 = W2 x Total/MPEG2-DVD ; T3 = W3 x Total/H.264-BR ; T4 = W4 x Total/(IFNULL(MPE On, MPE Off)
Note that this only applies to the top record and here the SUM(T1, T2, T3, T4) results in 131, equal to the Total.
The result of 100 x SUM(T1, T2, T3, T4)/ Total = 100 should be the 'Rel.Perf.' result for the top record.
Now is gets difficult. Let me call the records R1, R2, R3, ..., Rx. Now, in the previous step we have established that the figure 100 should into R1.
For R2 the result of the 'Rel.Perf.' is 100 x SUM(T1 x Disk I/O(2), T2 x MPEG2-DVD(2), T3 x (H.264-BR(2), T4 x (IFNULL(MPE on, MPE Off)))/ Total(2)
For R3 the result of the 'Rel.Perf.' is 100 x SUM(T1 x Disk I/O(3), T2 x MPEG2-DVD(3), T3 x (H.264-BR(3), T4 x (IFNULL(MPE on, MPE Off)))/ Total(3)
etcetera for all the rest of the records in the table.
A complicating factor is that the reference point of the top machine should remain fixed at 100, but when doing queries, the top machine may not be in the query results, but all the query results for the Rel.Perf. should be derived from these scores. Life would be infinitely easier if one would be certain that the top machine is fixed, but that is not the case.
Sorry to make this such a long and complicated post, but for those who have struggled through this long message, if you have any suggestions on how to make this work, I would appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.
Harm, while non is intended.
PS. I have been trying to generate a SQL query, using the following code:
$query_Recordset1 = 'SELECT *, FORMAT(`Disk I/O`+`MPEG2-DVD`+`H264-BR`+IFNULL(`MPE On`,`MPE Off`),0) As Total, FORMAT((54.661*`Disk I/O`+161.25*`MPEG2-DVD`+71.66666*`H264-BR`+645*IFNULL(`MPE On`,`MPE Off`))/129,1) As RPI,`CPU`*`Cores` As Phys_Cores FROM `Personal_data` WHERE 1 ORDER BY 54.661*`Disk I/O`+161.25*`MPEG2-DVD`+71.66666*`H264-BR`+645*IFNULL(`MPE On`,`MPE Off`), `Disk I/O`+`MPEG2-DVD`+`H264-BR`+IFNULL(`MPE On`,`MPE Off`) ASC';
For static work it is OK, but not when a new top performer submits his data.

Hi William,
Per my understanding that you want to count the number of the value in the field wait which is smaller then 15, right?
I have tested on my local environment and that you can add the calculated field (Count) using the expression as below:
=IIF(Fields!wait.Value<15,1,0)
Insert an outside group row and then get the total count by using below expression:
=SUM(Fields!Count.Value)
Preview you will get the result like below:
If your problem stil exists, please try to provide some sample data and the exprect count result you want.
Any problem, please feel free to ask.

Total Before Discount field.

Hi, evrybody!
Can you show me about what table store Total Before Discount field..in SQL tables
Can you help me! Thank you.

Hi,
The total before discount is the sum of the line total which are stored in the lines table.
For an example ,
Sales Order,
SELECT SUM(PriceBefDi),docentry FROM RDR1 WHERE DOCENTRY = "docentry value" group by docentry.

Tom.

Using AGO function in calculated fields in Analysis

Oracle BI 11g.
Hi!
I have time-hierarchy and try to use function Ago in calculated fields. I created Analysis and add columns Year, Revenue, Revenue (1 year ago). In formula of column "Revenue (1 year ago)" I wrote:
AGO("Sales"."Revenue", "H Calendar"."Year", 1)
"H Calendar"."Year" - is level in my time Hierarchy "H Calendar".
But when I clicked [OK], I got error: [nQSError: 27037] Unresolved level: "H Calendar"."Year".(HY000)
What I do wrong?

Hi,
I think it's a bug, try this.
If Analysis you have a time folder with this object dimension:
Time Hierarchy
Total Time
Year
Quarter
Month
Week
Day
And a measures 1- Revenue try to calculate the criteria like this (write in the level the formula "Time"."Time Hierarchy".Year)
For example:
AGO("Base Facts"."1- Revenue", "Time"."Time Hierarchy".Year,1)
If you have the sample sales of the 11g installed try this on A - Sample Sales
SELECT s_0, s_1, s_2 FROM (
SELECT
0 s_0,
"A - Sample Sales"."Time"."T05 Per Name Year" s_1,
AGO("A - Sample Sales"."Base Facts"."1- Revenue","Time"."Time Hierarchy"."Year",1) s_2
FROM "A - Sample Sales"
) djm ORDER BY 1, 2 ASC NULLS LAST
For me it works.

Populating text field with pl/sql expression or function

Hi all,
I have a function which return an object.
create or replace type emp2_oty is object (server_name varchar2(20),
status varchar2(4),
refresh_on date,
dw_refresh date)
create or replace type emp2_nt is table of emp2_oty
create or replace function testserver12 return emp2_nt
is
v_emp2_nt emp2_nt:=emp2_nt();
a number;
b number;
c number;
begin
for r_emp in (select * from testing)
loop
a := extract(DAY FROM r_emp.dw_refresh);
c := extract(DAY FROM r_emp.refresh_on);
b := extract(DAY FROM SYSDATE);
if (a != b) or (c != b) or (r_emp.status != 'on') then
v_emp2_nt.extend; v_emp2_nt(v_emp2_nt.last):=emp2_oty(r_emp.server_name,r_emp.status,r_emp.refresh_on,r_emp.dw_refresh);
end if;
end loop;
return v_emp2_nt;
end testserver12;
The pl/sql code to get the return value displayed. It works very fine in sqlworkshop.
declare

end loop;
end;
I want it to get display the output into the text field.
Please could any one help me to achieve this.
Thanks in advance

Pretty easy, add a CHR(10) (ASCII for carriage return) in the string concatenation.
e.g.
   l_result:= l_result || (v_temp_nt(i).server_name || ' ' ||
                 v_temp_nt(i).status || ' ' ||
                 v_temp_nt(i).refresh_on ||' ' ||
                 v_temp_nt(i).dw_refresh) || CHR(10);Also why over complicate the whole process by using objects and types by simplifying the code and also improving readability and maintenance by replacing the PL/SQL function body with something similar to (the conditions have been negated and may have not been what you meant in the first place)
DECLARE
   v_text_return VARCHAR2(2000);
   l_cur CURSOR IS
      SELECT t.server_name,
             t.status,
             t.refresh_on,
             t.dw_refresh
      FROM   testing t
      WHERE To_Char(t.refresh_on, 'DD') = To_Char(SYSDATE, 'DD')
      AND    To_Char(t.dw_refresh, 'DD') = To_Char(SYSDATE, 'DD')
      AND    Upper(t.status) = 'ON');
BEGIN
   FOR r_emp in l_cur
   LOOP
      v_text_return := v_text_return || r_emp.server_name || ' ' ||
                         r_emp.status || ' ' ||
                         r_emp.refresh_on || ' ' ||
                         r_emp.dw_refresh || CHR(10);
   END LOOP;
   RETURN v_text_return;
END;Hope this helps

PL/SQL Function to convert fields & set max length

I am having a problem with the following assignment:
Write a stored PL-SQL function called namefct that will convert two varchar2 fields (first and last names) into the format: lastname, firstname with a maximum length of 10 chars. If the combined size of the two names is greater than 10 characters, you will issue an error message indicating the name has been shortened to 10 characters and return only the first ten characters, otherwise return the entire name. Test the namefct function by using the staff table created in Part 1 (above). Turn in: the SQL statements to build the function, execute the sample code and the resulting output.
This is the start of my attempt, excluding the error message that is to be issued:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION namefct (fname VARCHAR2, lname VARCHAR2) IS
BEGIN
column "full name" format a10;
SELECT namefct(fname, lname) as "full name" from staff;
END namefct
Any advice or assistance would be greatly appreciated, since my Professor seems unwilling to assist me. Thanks!

The main tricky bit with this assignment is the requirement to show an error message and still return a value. If you were to just raise an exception with the error message (e.g. raise application error) then you won't be able to actually return a value. Because it's a function and not a procedure that has been specified you aren't returning the value in an OUT parameter which would have made passing the value back and raising an exception easier.
So, the only real way to have a function and allow it to show an error message would be something like...
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_name(p_forename IN VARCHAR2, p_surname IN VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
2    name_too_long EXCEPTION;

5      RAISE name_too_long;

PL/SQL Function source of text field

I have the following code as a PL/SQL function body as the source of a text item. There is a group_options table that specifies if the user group selected has fixed pricing or
can key in a price. For the fixed price groups, I was wanting to have the text field auto-populate and for the nonfixed price groups, I just wanted an empty text field for them to key in the price. The check boxes on the page for purchasing an item or leasing an item determine which table the pricing comes from. I don't get an error message, but there is something APEX doesn't like about the code below because I get the 'page cannot be found' message. Do you see a problem with the code below? Last week, it would not work and then mysteriously started to work. Today, it started out not working, so there has to be something flakey about it.
Thank you in advance.
Kelly
DECLARE
vfixed NUMBER;
vpurprice NUMBER;
vleasprice NUMBER;
BEGIN
SELECT FIXED_PRICE INTO vfixed FROM UPSL_DEV.GROUP_OPTIONS WHERE USER_GROUP =
:P7_GROUP ;
IF vfixed = 1 and :P9_PURCHASE = 1 THEN
SELECT PURCHASE_PRICE INTO vpurprice FROM UPSL_DEV.PRICE_GRID g WHERE g.user_GROUP = :P7_GROUP and g.equip_code =:P9_ITEMCODE ;
return vpurprice;
ELSIF vfixed = 0 and :P9_PURCHASE = 1 THEN
return NULL;
END if;
IF vfixed = 1 and :P9_LEASE = 1 THEN
SELECT MIN into vleasprice from UPSL_DEV.PRICE_GRID_LEASE l WHERE l.equip_code = :P9_ITEMCODE AND l.user_group = :P7_GROUP and l.term = :P9_LEASETERM;
RETURN vleasprice;
ELSIF vfixed = 0 and :P9_LEASE = 1 then
RETURN NULL;
END if;
END;

Put a "return null;" statement at the end of the block to allow for your logic not covering all cases. It may presently be getting a "function returned without value" error that is inconveniently suppressed in the page output.
Just a guess.

Calculated Field to get Total Number of Records does not work

Hi,
For some reason, calculated fields aren't working in my business rule.
What I did:
In deficiency criteria, I added the calculated field "Total Val".
In conditions and calculations I chose "Grouping/Aggregation".
For Select Group Fields, I chose "Plant and Material Number".
For Aggregation Method, I chose "Count".
Result when "Apply Rule" is used:
The filtered records are still shown. The "Field Names" (names within the table such as MATNR instead of material number) are shown instead of the field labels.
I'm trying to determine the cause of this issue and how to resolve it. Does anyone have a suggestion of what it is and what can be done?

Hi Arif,
Thank you for the response.
Is there a way we can further pin down the ABAP problem that is being experienced?
Best Regards,
Raphael

Subtotal issue when subtotaling on a calc field built using CASE function

Okay, I hpe I can explain this well. May be possible that this is something cannot handle in Discoverer. I am using Discoverer Plus to develop a new workbook - cross project expenditure inquiry. A requirement is to not allow a worksheet user to see labor cost (since possible to figure out someone's salary) amount unless they are allowed to view labor cost. I have a function that returns a Y/N value that tells me if they can view labor cost. That works out just fine. So what I am doing is taking my database cost column (which is defined as Number(22,5) in the Oracle table. I create a new calculated column, basically like this -
CASE WHEN expenditure type <> LABOR THEN cost WHEN view labor cost = 'Y' THEN cost ELSE NULL END.
That calculated column is working just fine. I am seeing my desired results in that column. Okay so far.
Next, the users want subtotals by project organization and project. So I created a new total. When I did that, my subtotal row amount is blank.
Okay, I have seen this happen with NULLS before. Like in the gl_je_lines tables, where the accounted_Dr and accounted_Cr may be null, and have to do a NVL function to convert the null to 0 and allow me to subtotal on the column in a Discoverer workbook.
So I tried creating a second calculation -
NVL(Cost,0)
So I return the cost if not null, otherwise I return 0. Second calc column results look okay.
Now I did a subtotal on the second calculation. Oops. Wrong result. Amount is shown as 0.
For grins, I went back to my CASE statement on my first calculation and changed the ELSE condtion from NULL to 0. When I did that, the subtotal on that column changes from a blank (Null) value to a 0 value. Well, better, but still just like my second calculation subtotal.
Obviously the users have the option to export to Excel and subtotal in Excel.
Does anyone know of a way to get a good subtotal in this kind of situation, where I am attempting to subtotal on a calculated field that is built on a CASE function? Or am I out of luck when it comes to Discoverer?
John Dickey

Okay, I did find a workaround, though I do not understand why the workaround works, but why the way I first tried to get a subtotal did not work. What I did is that I had to go to Discoverer Administrator. I picked my folder and did an Insert/Item. I created my new item building the same CASE statement that I used in my worksheet to create a new calculation. I then closed Discoverer Plus and reopened Discoverer Plus. Opened my worksheet. Edited the worksheet and brought in my new (derived) item from my folder. Then I created my subtotals for this secured cost amount. Voila. I get a number now, and the subtotal amount appears to be correct (still testing/verifying, but looks okay so far). So I deleted my subtotals on my calculated column and then deleted the calculation, to get that stuff out of the report. Sure would be nice if there was documentation in the Discoverer manuals about this.

Issue with running PL/SQL function returning Sql query

hi, I am trying to create a report region by using the option of PL/SQL function returning sql query.
I notice that it's very slow for the report region page to show up. In my PL/SQL function body, there are only 3 steps, first update all the 10 rows of varchar2 fields to null,then insert values to those fields, then select all from the table to show report results. It takes more than 5 minitues for the page to load up, how ever, if i run those steps in SQL*Plus, it only takes a couple of seconds to finish. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
gina

Sergio, the codes are as followed,
Declare
q varchar2(32767); -- query
Begin
q := 'select "ID",'||
'"ENTRY NAME","TOTAL","#CM","%CM","#CA",'||
'"%CA", from Info_table';
update info_table
set "TOTAL" = '',
"#CM" = '',
"%CM" = '',
"#CA" ='',
"%CA"=''
where "ID"<=10;
// set all data in column Total to null,there is only 10 rows in the table
update info_Table set Total = vTotal,
"#CM" = vCM
(those variables hold user key-in Text filed value)
where ID = 1;
return q;
End;
