Transformation from Query

hello, i want to use a query as infoprovider for a dso. but when i checked the properties of the query, this option is disabled.
i wonder why. can anyone please give me some idea why's that ?
please check the attachment

There are a lot of limitations on using query as a source for a transformation. Please check this blog and the comments therein to know the limitations.
#HowTo use a #SAP #BW query directly as datasource
One common problem I experienced is that variables are not supported. Irrespective of whether they are customer exit or manual entry variables, they are not allowed if you want to use query as the source.

Is there any way to prevent the OS from querying the Superdrive when start

Just a random question. Whenever my MacBook Pro starts up (either from sleep or a complete/fresh start, the OS queries the drive slot to see if there is a disc present. While this may be normal behavior, it seems to slow down the start up process. (I rarely ever have a disc in the drive). Just curious if this, in fact, normal, or if there's something awry.

Is there any way to prevent the OS from querying the Superdrive when start
No
he OS queries the drive slot to see if there is a disc present.
How can you tell? Based on the noise it makes?

How to get formated value from query

i get value from query use the follow method
Object obj1 = dataAccess.getValue(i,j,DataMap.DATA_UNFORMATTED);
Object obj1 = dataAccess.getValue(i,j,DataMap.DATA_FORMATTED);
the first method retrun a value '1666.0',
the second method return a value null
but i want to get the value '1,666'.
who can tell me how can get the formated value?

Ahu,
An implementation of DataAccess is not required to support all DataMap constants. For example, the OLAP-based Query object does not support DataMap.DATA_FORMATTED. To find out which DataMaps are supported for a particular implementation, you can call the DataDirector's getSupportedDataMap method.
If you have an Crosstab instance, there is a way to get the formatted cell value, based upon the formatting rules associated with the Crosstab. Get the GridViewFormatManager reference from the Crosstab, and call its formatDataValue method to return a String representation of the formatted data value.
Hope this helps,

Please suggest.

Hi SVU123,
Currently I am trying to load data into ODS only. But I want to avoid this path. I can always extract data out of the ODS to Flat File through Open Hub, but that will require twice the time to extract data.
First from Query to ODS and second from ODS to Flat File through open hub.
Basically, I want to automate this process and that is why I don't want to opt the path for RSCRM_BAPI t-code.

Creating Data Driven Subscription does not allow me to get Auto copy from Query.

I am trying to create a data driven Subscription for sharepoint document Library. I have a table I populate with values. Then a stored procedure that exec and returns the values. I use this in my data driven subscription.
Here is what my table looks like
intSubscriptionID strSubscriptionName strFileName strPath strRenderFormat strWriteMode strFileExt strTitle strAutoCopy strUserName strPassword strVar1 strVar2 strVar3 strVar4 strVar5 strVar6 strVar7 strVar8 strVar9 strVar10 bitEnabled
400 Billing - Invoice_ParentChildRollup 19_Jan2015 http://eagleviewportal/BusinessIntelligenceCenter/AccountingBI/Reports/New Excel Overwrite True Invoice_ParentChildRollup False NULL NULL 0000019 NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL 1
401 Test Daily Order and Pending Status by SubAccount Test Daily Order and Pending Status by SubAccount http://eagleviewportal/BusinessIntelligenceCenter/ClientRelationsBI/Reports/New Excel Overwrite True Test
Daily Order and Pending Status by SubAccount True NULL NULL 152884 NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL NULL 1
I can use all the values and it creates my subscription no problem as long as I do not try to use the autocopy.
If I select Use no Value all works great.
If I select Specify a static Value and then choose True it gives me an error The AutoCopy Delivery setting cannot be set to True if the WriteMode Delivery setting is not set to Overwrite. as you can see that value is set to overwrite. If I use
hard coded word OverWrite instead of getting it from query it works.
If I do the same step above but select False it seems to work as well.
If I try to choose the value from the query then it errors with the generic Sorry Something went wrong. I cannot find any value in url logs.
Ken Craig

Hi Ken,
I have reproduced the same issue as you encountered. If you choose both value for the fields(WriteMode and AutoCopy) from query, SharePoint will result in an error page. I finally fixed the issue by manually updating the table
dbo.Subscriptions from the reporting service database. To make this, please first copy the value of field
ExtensionSettings from the subscription table.
Change the WRITEMODE and AUTOCOPY from "<ParameterValue><Name>WRITEMODE</Name><Value>Overwrite</Value></ParameterValue> <ParameterValue><Name>AUTOCOPY</Name><Value>AutoCopy</Value></ParameterValue>"
to "<ParameterValue><Name>WRITEMODE</Name><Field>strWriteMode</Field></ParameterValue> <ParameterValue><Name>AUTOCOPY</Name><Field>strAutoCopy</Field></ParameterValue>".
Here Value means the static value, and field means the name of the query field. After you modify it, copy the settings back to field
ExtensionSettings or use update SQL to update it.
At last, your data driven subscription should be like this:
Thanks,
Reken Liu

Reading parameters from Query string : Sender SOAP adapter.

Hello Experts,
I have a SOAP to SOAP scenario. Here we will have multiple receivers and dynamic receiver determination is needed.
The sender will send a Value in Query string of URL to sender SOAP adapter. This value in Query string parameter will decide the receiver at runtime.
I need to know, how can we read values from Query string of incoming call? I did tried to search blogs & forum threads but unfortunately not able to hit the right links.
Any inputs will be of great help.
Should i use "Use Query String" on sender soap channel? I tried it, but i was not able to find any query string parameters in SOAP header or payload.
Please guide me, its bit urgent.
Regards,
Abhi.

> But the argument provided from their side is: They are using standard XSD and this service is provided out of box with sender application.
If they can add a URL parameter, they can also add a field to the structure.
> They cant control the value mapping of parameters in payload to the extent required to implement this change.
Adding a new field to the structure would not affect any existing mapping.
> Since they have this custom requirement of multiple receivers & receiver to be determined at runtime, they need to go for Query string.
This can be done based on any field of the payload.
> I need to find a way to read the query string in any case.
This is not supported by SOAP adapter.
> Can I use one of the header parameters to be mapped to this value (By selecting "Use Query string" & "Keep Headers" flag in sender CC) & then extract this value from header using Dynamic configuration ?
This feature works only for XI header fields, like message ID or QoS.
Not for individual parameters.

Number of records in cube from Query Designer

I don't have access to the cube in BW(listschema). I only have access to pull reports from cube from Query Designer. How can I tell the total number of records in a cube?
Thanks.

Hi
you can use the tech content in the query designer to display the count for no of records or you can do the same via creating a new CKF
or see the below link to display the count

Error in execution of query's from Query Designer

Hi,
We have recently installed the BI 7 server, when i execute the query from query designer i got the following URL:
http:///irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.sap.pct!2fplatform_add_ons!2fcom.sap.ip.bi!2fiViews!2fcom.sap.ip.bi.bex?QUERY=TEST_REP&VARIABLE_SCREEN=X&DUMMY=2
due to that page is not displayed, i guess there is some sort of hostname setting need to be done.
Can anybody please guide me where all these settings are done, help required urgently ?
Thanks in advance

In fact the query's are not running because this entry needs to be maintained in the below path:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Maintain this as the last entry below the localhost
<bi server ip> <host name>.
This entry is to be maintained whenever we dont see the host name in the url.

Hello Dipika
May be you have not included host string in logon pad.
1. Open SAP log on pad
2. Select the system and go to change mode
3. you have IP defined for the system, here you need to put host string name which u can get from C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc file for your SAP system in your system.
4. Save and exit.and run query again
Thanks

Display select list from query on manual tabular form

I got so frustrated I started over. I'm following the how to create a manual form.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/tabular_form.html#MANUAL
The problem I'm now having is even though I display items as hidden, there is a column holder on the report for them. If I go into the report attributes and toggle the show attribute off I cannot reference an items value in my logic. I used /&nbsp/ for the column heading but I still get the little sort arrow where the column heading should be. I tried to toggle the sort attribute off but the sort arrow still shows up. How can I use the apex_item.hidden and not get a place holder for the column on a report? Thanks, Elizabeth

I'm not entirely sure what your post means. Whether gift cards will become available in Egypt I don't know, I'm just a fellow user, I don't know what Apple might or might not be planning. But as I said, gift cards are country-specific.
If you are in Egypt then you can only use the Egyptian store. From the US iTunes store terms of use (and other country's stores will be similar) :
The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance.
