Unable to filter a formula field based on two conditions

hi,
I have a report with 3 subreports in it. When i drill down onto first subreport i am getting correct records in details based on selection criteria but when i am unable to populate the same record count in summary.
For example
On summary i see : 60 when i drill down i see 20 records which is correct but not reflecting onto summary report
the details selection criteria is based on two fields where field1>=1 and field2= "Text"It is coming out good (20 records) but in summary i am unable to populate this based on same selection criteria
The main issue i am facing was if i apply a filter on summary selection criteria all the subreport counts are getting affected. Is there a way i can apply filters only one one field
Please suggest
Thanks!
Lucky

Thanks! for the prompt response Abhilash
I got part of what you told me. Yes i am calculating the counts in the summary report.
Basically here is the selection criteria: i need to filter the records based on two conditions. One is x.field1= "Admin" and x.field2=act_pct>=1
For example:
Admin Returns 50 but when i dig into details it showing as 20 records ( based on selection criteira above)
when coming back to summary . 50 what ever is returing here is based on a formula ( if x.field1="admin" then 1 else 0) ..in addition to this i need to filter that by x.field2>=1 which is not taking it
Is there any syntax to do this
If i apply a filter on this particular 50 record its bee applying for whole summary report ...
And from what you said :
Why don't you create the summary in the Subreport and maybe use shared variables to bring it back to the Main Report?
i did not get this
Please suggest

WriteBack: Update a field based on two conditions.

Hi Experts,
I am facing a serious problem in write back to database.
Let me explain the writeback i am trying to do.
I have a table as Below
Col1----- Col2---------Col3----------Col4
100--------1-------------2----------100/(1+2)
Col1,col2,col3 are editable.
Once the values are entered in these columns Col4 is calculated by the formula (Col1/(Col2+Co3))
If the user enters 0 in col2 and col3 then it will be a division by zero which i have handled by the DECODE function
But the user requires a standard value to be shown there that is Col1/0.57895 whenever he enters 0 in col2 and col3.
I initiially put a column formula for Col4 in answers saying if col2 or col3 = 0 then (Col1/0.57895)
But as this formula is only at the prsentation level...teh values were not getting saved in the database.
My requirement is i need to put this condition in the writeback xml itself and see to it that this standard value be updated in the table itself.
like
update table set col4=Col1/0.57895 where col2=0 and col3=0
Update table set col4=(Col1/(Col2+Co3)) where col2 <>0 or col3<>0
I am unable to use two update queries in teh xml template.
Please let me know how can i implement this in the xml template.
Appreciate your immediate response.
-Best Regards!

You can't do it in the xml but you can do it in the database with a before trigger update

Summary on a formula field that makes a condition on a running total

Hi,
How come I can't create a summary on a formula field that makes a condition on a running total ?
My running total field is a counter that counts the number of individuals
My formula field contains this info :
IIF ( ( {#counter_running_total} <> 1)
    or ( {#counter_running_total} = 1
          and {status.code} = '04' )
    or ( {#counter_running_total} = 1
          and {status.code} in \[ 208 , 996 ])
,0,1)
When I right-click on the formula field to insert a summary, it does not allow me.
Do you have any idea I can show the information in a better way ?
Thanks
Steph

Thank you very mutch for your reply, I tried it and it works.
The thing is, I would like to reset the counter on change of group, and put the manual running total in the group footer.
Is there a formula I could use to reset the counter ?
When I write in the group header :
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar i=0;
it does not reset the i to zero, instead, it writes "false" and continues to increment in the footer.
do you have an idea ?
Thank's
Steph

Suppressing a section based on two conditions

Hello
currently, I am trying to suppress a section of group based on two conditions:
- The first condition is to suppress the section always if the user is not at DrillDownGroupLevel 1.
- The second condition is to supress the section if the GroupName ({Customer.TerritoryID}) is not UK or US.
I went to the section expert and entered this code in the "Suppress (No drill-down)" x-2 formula field:
DrillDownGroupLevel <> 1 AND
GroupName ({Customer.TerritoryID}) <> "US" OR
GroupName ({Customer.TerritoryID}) <> "UK"
Unfortunately, it does not work. Any ideas are very welcome!!
I am using Crystal Reports XI
Thanks in advance!!

Which "section of a group" are you trying to conditionally suppress? (group header, group footer or details within a particular group......or all of them?)
AND you stated,
"currently, I am trying to suppress a section of group based on two conditions:
The first condition is to suppress the section always if the user is not at DrillDownGroupLevel 1.
The second condition is to supress the section if the GroupName ({Customer.TerritoryID}) is not UK or US.
Try this formula for the conditional suppression:
(DrillDownGroupLevel <> 1) AND
(GroupName ({Customer.TerritoryID}) "US") OR
(GroupName ({Customer.TerritoryID}) "UK")
If that does not work you may want to check and make sure your values are upper case in the TerritoryID.
In addition, a GOOD way to test conditional suppression formulas is to put them into a conditional highlighting color for the section so you can still see the values and the highlighting lets you know if it's working. For example:
IF
(DrillDownGroupLevel <> 1) AND
(GroupName ({Customer.TerritoryID}) "US") OR
(GroupName ({Customer.TerritoryID}) "UK")
then YELLOW else WHITE

DBPolling based on two conditions

Hi All,
We have a requirement in our bpel to process to poll the DB based on two conditions as we know how to poll on DB for one conditions.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Nagaraju .D

Sorry it is late here, I was thinking of selecting data, forget what I have said.
Polling condition needs to be a sequence so there is no possibility of missing rows. Things like date, id etc
If you need to use multiple conditions you need to concatinate the fields as part of the select statement. You may need to create a view for this.
Obviously if you are doing a physical delete, or a logical delete there is no such issue as BPEL will read every row that is in the table, or where the flag is set to not processed.
Hopefully this helps, sorry for mucking you around
cheers

Joins on different fields based on a condition

Hi,
I have 2 tables, each consists of 5 fields, based on Field3's data, I want to join either F1 & F2 or F4 & F5.
I have given below the field creation and sample data for your reference. When I run the SQL with "case when .."
statement, it gives "ORA-00905: missing keyword" error.
I can do this by splitting into 2 separate SQL statements one for F1 & F2 and the other for F4 and F5.
Is there any other better way of doing it in a single SELECT statement?
Please share your views, thank you.
create table tmp_a
(f1 varchar2(50),
f2 varchar2(50),
f3 char(1),
f4 varchar2(50),
f5 varchar2(50))
create table tmp_b
(f1 varchar2(50),
f2 varchar2(50),
f3 char(1),
f4 varchar2(50),
f5 varchar2(50))
begin
     insert into tmp_a
     values('R1', 'abc', 'L', 'A1', 'B1');
     insert into tmp_a
     values('R2', 'lkj', 'L', 'A2', 'B2');
     insert into tmp_a
     values('R3', 'qwe', 'M', 'A3', 'B3');
     insert into tmp_a
     values('R4', '123', 'M', 'A4', 'B4');
     insert into tmp_b
     values('R3', 'qwe', 'L', 'A1', 'B1');
     insert into tmp_b
     values('R2', 'lkj', 'L', 'A2', 'B2');
     insert into tmp_b
     values('R4', '123', 'M', 'A3', 'B3');
     insert into tmp_b
     values('R1', 'abc', 'M', 'A3', 'B3');
     commit;
end;
select * from tmp_a;
select * from tmp_b;
select a.*, b.*
from tmp_a a, tmp_b b
where a.f1 = b.f1 and a.f2 = b.f2;
select a.*, b.*
from tmp_a a, tmp_b b
where a.f4 = b.f4 and a.f5 = b.f5;
select a.*, b.*
from tmp_a a, tmp_b b
where case when a.f3 = 'L' then
          a.f4 = b.f4 and a.f5 = b.f5
     else
          a.f1 = b.f1 and a.f2 = b.f2
end;

Maybe something like:
SQL> SELECT a.*, b.*
2    FROM tmp_a a, tmp_b b
3   WHERE CASE
4            WHEN a.f3 = 'L'
5               THEN a.f4
6            ELSE a.f1
7         END = CASE
8                 WHEN a.f3 = 'L'

10                 ELSE b.f1
11              END
12     AND CASE
13            WHEN a.f3 = 'L'
14               THEN a.f5
15            ELSE a.f2
16         END = CASE
17                 WHEN a.f3 = 'L'

19                 ELSE b.f2
20              END
21 /
F1         F2         F F4         F5         F1         F2         F F4         F5

Using Summary or Formula fields based on what a string field has.

Attached is an example report that was not created by Crystal Reports. I am working on re-creating it in Crystal Reports.
I am using Crystal Reports 2011.
The Total line for each group of details needs to have sum total fields for only items for pieces, weight, etc. whose Serial No does not begin with B. How do I do that?

Hi Keith,
Create a formula that defines a variable we will use. This will go into a group header and resets the variable to 0 when the group changes.
@intialize
WhilePrintingRecords;
NumberVar myTotal := 0;
Drop this into the group header of the group where the total will appear.
Your second formula will do the summing and goes usually goes into the Detail section:
@process_records
WhilePrintingRecords;
NumberVar myTotal;
if left (Uppercase ({table.FIELD}), 1) = "B" then
myTotal := myTotal + {table.numberfield}
Else myTotal;
So this formula checks your field for the letter B. You may not need to use Uppercase.
The last formula will go into your Group Footer where you want your total to appear like:
@showtotals
WhilePrintingRecords;
NumberVar myTotal;
And that's it. Notice the variable is populated with := and not just =. The single = is a comparison so make sure you use the correct on.
Good luck,
Brian

Create two dynamic action
1. Make it order number item disable on page load.
   Event : Page Load
   Action : Disable
   Fire When event result is : True
   Selection Type : Item
   Item : Your order number item
2 . enable and disable order number on selection of order type(assuming when order type is null it is disable otherwise it is enable)
    Event : Change
    Selection type : item
    Item : your order type item
    condition : is not null
True Action
    Action : Enable

Need Trigger that format a field based on two other fields

Hello!
I need to write a trigger, that reads on field and made some changes to it and saves the result in an other field in the same row. The trigger should work in insert and update cases.
Does anybody can send me a frame, where i can fill my logic?
Regards

In this example, column1 and column2 are the values being examined and the resultant expression is saved in column3.
create or replace trigger trigger_name

for each row
begin
:new.column3 := :new.column1 + :new.column2;

Hiding a caption and field based on context condition

Hi,
I have what should be a simple problem, but I'm not sure if what I'm doing is the correct way to solve it.
I have a telephone number of a user master being output, and if there is an extension number I want to output that as well, separated by ext
In the context node I have put a condition on the Extension field (GS_HEADER-FSABE-TEL_EXTENS1 not equals INITIAL), and debugging the code of the function module shows that %OUTPUT is not being called for the Extension field in the layout as expected.
The Extension field in the layout is bound to the Extension field in the context, and the caption is set as "Ext"
Therefore I either want to output
Telephone: 01234 567890 ext 1234
or
Telephone: 01234 567890
It's not working though, as I still get ext printing even when there is no Extension - have I done something wrong or is this not the correct way to go about this?
Thanks,
Vindaloo

Thanks very much, this has solved the problem
In the layout:ready event for the extension field I have put the following Javascript:
// Hide the Telephone Extension caption & value if it is not populated
if (this.rawValue == null) {
this.presence = "hidden";
I was under the misapprehension that simply putting a condition onto the field in the context would stop it being passed to the form and rendered.
The layout:ready event seems to be the best place to put this code. However, the adobe help for this event is confusing as it contains the following:
Initiates after the form design and data are merged, the form exists, and the form's layout is applied. At this time, the finished form has not been rendered; therefore, a calculation or script set to run on this event could modify the layout before the form is rendered.
This is fine and fits in with what I have. It then goes on to say:
Note: Scripts that fire on layout:ready should not do anything that would cause the layout of the form to change. For example, this would include anything involving subforms or tables that grow or shrink, adding fragments dynamically at run time, adding or removing subform instances, and toggling the presence setting of an object between hidden and visible.
This seems to be in direct conflict with the previous statement, regarding modifying the layout.

Best way to validate currency field based on two picklists

Hi,
Im having a great deal of trouble creating validation for the following statement:
If (Task type =”Call” or “Callback”) and (‘Outcome Category’ is “In Progress” or “Tried and Failed to Save” or “Saved”) then (‘Total Value of Policy’ must be > 0)
Both task type and outcome category are picklist items.
What is the easiest way for me to do this? Ive created something horribly complex which only works when I first create the record (possibly because of the use of FieldValue rather than stored values). Ive seen people use the NOT function before to do this - could this be an option?! Ive had no luck with anything Ive tried so far.
My current expression is as follows:
(FieldValue('<cTotal_Value_of_Policy_ITAG>') > 0
AND FieldValue('<Type>') <> LookupValue("TODO_TYPE", "Investigation") - - Because call or callback are the only other options in the list.
AND (FieldValue('<IndexedPick2>') <> LookupValue("OCC_INDEX_CUST_LOV_EVT_ACT_2", "In progress")
OR FieldValue('<IndexedPick2>') <> LookupValue("OCC_INDEX_CUST_LOV_EVT_ACT_2", "Tried & failed to save")
OR FieldValue('<IndexedPick2>') <> LookupValue("OCC_INDEX_CUST_LOV_EVT_ACT_2", "Saved")))
OR FieldValue('<Type>') = LookupValue("TODO_TYPE", "Investigation")
OR (FieldValue('<Type>') = LookupValue("TODO_TYPE", "Call")
AND (FieldValue('<IndexedPick2>') <> LookupValue("OCC_INDEX_CUST_LOV_EVT_ACT_2", "In progress")
AND FieldValue('<IndexedPick2>') <> LookupValue("OCC_INDEX_CUST_LOV_EVT_ACT_2", "Tried & failed to save")
AND FieldValue('<IndexedPick2>') <> LookupValue("OCC_INDEX_CUST_LOV_EVT_ACT_2", "Saved")))
Sorry for including this confusing chunk of code, but I think it explains how more complex i have made this than i probably need to!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is quite an urgent issue..
Many Thanks
AJ

Anon,
In your edit form, create two hidden items p10_ha, p10_hb (for e.g.) Make the default values for these items as values of p10_item_a and p10_item_b respectively. So when you are processing the update, you have old values in hidden items and new values in p10_item_a and b.
Now create 'after submit' pl/sql computation and put similar code
if p10_ha !=1 and p10_hb !=1 then
    if p10_item_a = 1 and p10_item_b = 1 then
    -- your business logic here
   :p_date_item := sysdate;
   end if;
end if;Hope it helps
Cheers

Top 10 based on two conditions

Hello BW Experts,
Wondering if this is possible in Bex.
-- by default show the top 10 customer based on gross sales
-- then give a navigational option in the context menu to show the top 10 customers by net sales.
can this be achieved in bw using conditions.
Any suggetions is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
BWer

Hi BWer,
It is possible to do this using conditions. Start creating a condition in the query and use the Top N condition. Create 2 of these: One for each key figure. Then in the report you can activate and deactivate them to see results are desired.
Hope this helps...

How to count number of records for a field based on condition?

Hi guys,
I want to know how to find count of records coming from the database for a particular field based on some condition.
I need to use this count to suppress some headers. Because of this i am not able to use running totals. Is there any other way?
Ex scenario:
I have account number and currency fields, those are coming from database. And i need to count the number of accounts whose currency is not Euro.
Thanks in advance,
Vijay.

A simple formula can do that:
//Formula begin
if {your account field}<>"Euro" then 1
//Formula end
This formula can be summarized. (by group or report)

Top n filter in universe based on two measures(MDX expression)

Hi,
    I have to do filter at universe level based on two measures. for example, i have
BusAr       year       value
ddddfd        1997      435433.
I can able to do filter using mdx expression for busniess area wise top 10 values in universe. using the following syntax
<FILTER EXPRESSION="Rank([0BUS_AREA].CurrentMember, Order([0BUS_AREA].CurrentMember.Level.Members, [Measures].[D7G51I90GYJ8POGFSYVFPX24F], BDESC))">
now i want to filter using year wise and business area wise top 10 filter in universe.   where to add the second member yearwise in Rank () function.
how to achieve this.
Regards,
Shanthakumar.

Hi,
I am not sure you want to make a Top n filter on 2 different measures.
But if you want to make a Top n filter on 2 ore more different dimensions, here is the code.
IIf(IsEmpty([Measures].[Sales Amount]),null,
Rank(   StrToTuple( "(" + Generate(Head(Axis(1),Axis(1).Item(0).Count) AS RN,
"Axis(1).Item(0).Item(" +
CStr(RN.CurrentOrdinal - 1) +
").Hierarchy.CurrentMember",
",") + ")" ),
Axis(1),   [Measures].[Sales Amount] )    )
Please note that the code is taking into account all dimensions involved in the rows axis, so the more dimensions yu add in the query the top n will increase the number of values.
I have successfully tested it on MSAS but it seems that on SAP the "+" character is not allowed...
Maybe there are some SAP notes to add.
