Updating library column with Term Set Term description

Hi Community,
We are busy with a Document Management project using drop off libraries to file documents (docs) based on classification by a single level Term Set (example: "1000" (name) & "Client XYZ" (description)). Then auto
create folders each time there is a new classifcation,i.e. term, used (example "1000 - Client XYZ").
The challenge we have is that auto folder creation is not allowed on term sets, thus we want to strip out the term name (1000) and the corresponding description (Client XYZ) to 2 seperate text fields and then concatenate them to become
an unique text field ("1000 - Client XYZ".) that can be used for the autocreation of folders in the library.
Does any one now how this can be acheived or maybe even suggest a better approach?
Kind Regards
Philip

I dont think with OOTB setting it can be done, however the logic which are explaining of concatenation could be done in custom code, what you need to do is as soon as a document comes to drop off library on the item added event you can perform this
operation to create a folder

UPDATE multiple columns with conditional SET parameters

I have a procedure that updates multiple columns of a table using the procedure's parameter. Is it possible to have one update statement with conditional SET parameter?
CREATE TABLE TEMP
(POL_NUM NUMBER,
OED DATE,
TERM NUMBER,
TRANS_CD CHAR(2));
INSERT INTO TEMP VALUES (1, '1 AUG 2009', 12, 'NB');
INSERT INTO TEMP VALUES (2, '4 AUG 2009', 12, 'XL');
INSERT INTO TEMP VALUES (3, '2 AUG 2009', 12, 'RN');
COMMIT;
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TMP_PROC (
pPOL_NUM NUMBER,
pOED IN DATE,
pTERM IN NUMBER,
pTRANS_CD CHAR2)
AS
BEGIN
IF pOED IS NOT NULL THEN
    UPDATE TEMP SET OED = pOED WHERE POL_NUM = pPOL_NUM;
END IF;
IF pTERM IS NOT NULL THEN
    UPDATE TEMP SET TERM = pTERM WHERE POL_NUM = pPOL_NUM;
END IF;
IF pTRAN_CD IS NOT NULL THEN
    UPDATE TEMP SET TRANS_CD = pTRANS_CD WHERE POL_NUM = pPOL_NUM;
END IF;
COMMIT;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
     NULL;
END;Is it possible to replace multiple IFs from the code to have only one UPDATE statement with condition that update the column only if the passed parameter is not null? In real scenario I have more than 3 columns and I don't want to write many IF blocks.
Please help Gurus!!

Hi,
You certainly don't want to issue separate UPDATE statements for every column; that will be really inefficent.
SQL has several ways to implement IF-THEN-ELSE logic. CASE is the most versatile, but NVL will do everything you need for this job. You can use one of those to set a column to itself (and therefore not really update that column) when appropriate.
For example:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TMP_PROC (
pPOL_NUM   IN       NUMBER,
pOED          IN   DATE,
pTERM          IN   NUMBER,
pTRANS_CD IN       CHAR
AS
BEGIN
     UPDATE temp
     SET     oed      = NVL (poed,       oed)
     ,     term      = NVL (pterm,       term)
     ,     trans_cd = NVL (ptrans_cd, trans_cd)
     WHERE     pol_num      = ppol_num;
COMMIT;     -- Maybe
END    tmp_proc;"EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN NULL" is almost always a bad idea. If there's an error, don't you want to know about it? Shouldn't you at least log a message in a warnings table or something?
Think careflully about whether or not you want to COMMIT every time you call this procedure.
Just as it's inefficient to issue a separate UPDATE statement for every column, it's also inefficient to issue a separate UPDATE statement for every row. If efficiency is important, it should be possible to UPDATE several rows in a single UPDATE statement, using NVL (or CASE, or COALESCE, or NULLIF, or NVL2, or ...).
This was a very well-written question! Thanks for providing the CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, and such a clear explanation.

Update Shared Column on Document Set creation

hi,
I have a cloud business app connected to sharepoint online,
on certain actions i create a document set in a sharepoint library , the document set i use has a shared column set - i would like to set this value at creation time or just after creation so that any documents added inherit the value.
from the cloud business app i am using the CSOM to create the document set (based on steven curran's post
http://sharepointfieldnotes.blogspot.com/2010/06/making-your-sharepoint-2010.html)
Any ideas?
Thx

Hi mrP,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to update the shared column on document set creation.
I suggest you create a workflow to do it.
You can create the workflow as the below:
For the workflow Start Options, select “Start workflow automatically when an item is created”.
After the above, publish the workflow.

Wendy

"Updating Library" - problem with uploading pictures

I have been trying to upload pictures and when I go into photos it says "updating library" and it's been trying for at least an hour. I've tried uploading only 15 pictures and still nothing. I also have the issue with the size. Do I need to resize before upload? If so how and in what dimensions? Need help!!

Theree is no need to resize photos, the computer will do that before transferring.
Try force quitting the photo app on the iPad by holding the sleep wake button until you see the slide to power off screen. Then hold the home button until you are back at the home screen and try open the photos app again.

Update a column with info from columnA, and if not in columnA, then columnB

I have a situation where I have to update a columnC with information stored one of 2 ways. It is stored one way in ColumnA, and another way in columnB. I must check the string if it is in columnA first, and if it is, that value will go in columnC to be updated. If it is not, I must go on to columnB and find it there. It will be in one of the 2 columns but I must use the way it is stored in these columns to store in my columnC to be updated. The data is basically turned around (not reversed letter for letter, though) in the 2 columns and must be stored the way it is found in columnA or columnB. Any ideas?

It's that simple? It will look in both columns this way? Now, I actually mentioned UPDATE when I meant INSERT, so I am doing this in a VALUES clause? Will I just use the phrase 'nvl(A, B);'?

How to Loop through another list and update a column with SharePoint Designer 2013 Workflow

Hi,
I am trying to get my head around the new 2013 Workflow Engine and SharePoint Designer 2013 Workflow Text-Based Designer.
I have two lists.
List A has 2 columns: Title, Completed (Yes/No)
List B has 3 columns: Title, LookupListATitle, Completed (Yes/No)
All the 2013 Workflow components have been installed and configured and I am selecting the 2013 Workflow option in SPD
I am trying to set off a 2013 Workflow when an item in List A is edited to Loop through List B and select items where the LookupListATitle column's value is equal to the Title value of the current item, and set the value of the Completed column for those
items in ListB to "Yes".
I have the Workflow configured like this:
Stage: Stage 1
IF Current Item:Completed equals Yes
Loop: 1
The contents of this loop will run repeatedly while: ListB:LookupListATitle equals Current Item: Title
Update item in ListB.
(The dialog options for the update item action as follows:
List: ListB
Field: Completed, Value: Yes
In the Find the List Item section
Field: LookupListATitle
Value: Current Item: Title)
Transition to stage
Go to End of Workflow
When I update an item in ListA and set its Completed column to Yes, I would expect the Workflow to find all the items in List B where the Lookup column is equal to ListA's Title (there are 2) and update their Completed column to Yes. But it doesn't work.
When I look at the Workflow Status it says the Internal Status is "Canceled" and the information pop up has the following alien language (and may be truncated):
RequestorId: 95f03b62-8956-ac14-c5cf-dc98c89c589c. Details: System.ArgumentException: Invalid JSON primitive: Item001. Parameter name: value at Microsoft.Workflow.Common.Json.JXmlToJsonValueConverter.ConvertStringToJsonNumber(String value) at Microsoft.Workflow.Common.Json.JXmlToJsonValueConverter.ReadPrimitive(String
type, XmlDictionaryReader jsonReader) at Microsoft.Workflow.Common.Json.JXmlToJsonValueConverter.JXMLToJsonValue(XmlDictionaryReader jsonReader) at Microsoft.Workflow.Common.Json.JXmlToJsonValueConverter.JXMLToJsonValue(Stream jsonStream, Byte[] jsonBytes)

executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager, Location resultLocation)
Unfortunately I don't have access to the server, logs etc.
I would love to find some tutorials, or any books on SharePoint Designer 2013 in general and Workflows in particular but my searches haven't turned up much so far apart from a pre-release Beginning SharePoint Workflows which is in its very early stages and
not much help yet.
Can anyone give me some guidance on how to set up While Loops to iterate through a related list using SharePoint Designer 2013?
Mark

Hi,
I understand that you wanted to update the items in the other list (Participants) where the Course equals the Current Item.
You need to use “Call HTTP Web Service" action and “Build Dictionary" action to get the Maxid and then loop Participants to update the items.
You can follow the steps as below to achieve what you want:
Create a custom list named Courses, add columns: Title(Single line of text), Course ID(Single line of text), Course Finalised (Yes/No).
Create a custom list named Participants, add columns: Title(Single line of text), Course(Lookup), CourseFinalised (Yes/No).
Create workflow associated to Courses, start the workflow automatically when an item is created or changed.
Add conditions and actions:
The HTTP URL is set to
https://sitename/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('listname')/items?$orderby=Id%20desc and the HTTP method is set to “GET”. Then the list will be order by Id and desc.
Then if Course Finalised is equal to Yes, the CourseFinalised of the associated items in Participants will be updated to Yes.

Update table column with same auto-increment value, via T-SQL stored procedure

Good Evening to every one,
I have a table 'Contracts' as we can see in the picture below (I exported my data on An Excel Spreadsheet). Table's primary key is 'ID' column.
I am trying to create a stored procedure (i.e. updContractNum), through which I am going to update the 'Contract_Num' column, in every row where the values on Property_Code, Customer, Cust_Category and Amnt ARE EQUAL, as we can see in the schema above.
The value of Contract_Num is a combination of varchar and auto_increment (integer). For example, the next value on 'Contract number' column will be 'CN0005' for the combination of 11032-14503-02-1450,00
I' m trying to use CURSORS for this update but I am new in using cursors and I am stuck in whole process. I atttach my code below:
CREATE PROCEDURE updContractNum
AS
--declare the variables
DECLARE @CONTRACT_NUM VARCHAR(10); -- Contract Number. The value that will be updated on the table.
DECLARE @CONTRACT INTEGER; -- Contract number, the auto increment section on contract number
DECLARE @CONTR_ROW VARCHAR(200); -- Contract row. The row elements that will be using on cursor
DECLARE CONTRACT_CURSOR CURSOR FOR -- Get the necessary fields from table
SELECT PROPERTY_CODE, CUSTOMER, CUST_CATEGORY, AMNT
FROM CONTRACTS;
OPEN CONTRACT_CURSOR -- open a cursor
FETCH NEXT FROM CONTRACT_CURSOR INTO @CONTR_ROW
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0 -- execute the update, for every row of the tabl
BEGIN
--update Contract_Num, using the format coding : contract_number = 'CN' + 0001
UPDATE CONTRACTS
SET CONTRACT_NUM = 'CN'+@CONTRACT_NUM+1
END
CLOSE CONTRACT_CURSOR
Thank you in advance!

You dont need cursor
You can simply use an update statement like this
UPDATE t
SET Contract_Num = 'CN' + RIGHT('00000' + CAST(Rnk AS varchar(5)),5)
FROM
SELECT Contract_Num,
DENSE_RANK() OVER (ORDER BY Property_Code,Customer,Cust_category,Amnt) AS Rnk
FROM table
)t

LINQ: Update a column with auto increment value

Hi All,
Greetings.
I am very new to C# (though with lot of experience in VC++). Now a days, I am engaged in a C# project where I need to deal with ADO.NET DataTable and related classes. I am stuck up in a scenario as follows:
I have a data table (of DataTable type) pre-populated with many rows (50000+), parsed from a log file. Now I need to add a column that will be holding index number for each records; eg. 1, 2, 3......
I have tried to add the auto-incremented column dynamically, with seed = 0 and increment = 1, but it is not working.
Is there any LINQ query that I can run to update the DataTable at once? Or foreach loop per DataRow is the only option here?
I appreciate any quick suggestion on this.
Thanks in advance.
Sanjoy Jana.

You should add the auto increment column to the DataTable before you pouplate it with the other data:
//1. Create a datatable
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
//2. add the autoincrement column:
DataColumn column = new DataColumn();
column.DataType = System.Type.GetType("System.Int32");
column.AutoIncrement = true;
column.AutoIncrementStep = 1;
column.AutoIncrementSeed = 1;
//3. Fill the dataTable using an SqlDataAdapter or whatever
dt.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("name"));
dt.Rows.Add("1");
dt.Rows.Add("2");
dt.Rows.Add("3");
dt.Rows.Add("4");
Then you don't have to add the "auto incremented" values yourself in some kind of a loop (using for example LINQ or foreach).
If you want to know how to poplulate the DataTable from a database query using an adapter, please refer to the following page:
http://www.dotnetperls.com/sqldataadapter
Hope that helps.

Dynamic update of column with values derived by formula on other table.

i have 3 tables; table A,B and C
table A has two columns (id and Quantity), based on the id value, the quantity value is computed using a formula on two rows (one from table B and the other from C).
the formula is different for each id value.
but after every month the quantity value has to be updated (because tables B & C get updated monthly).
example. given id=1, quantity= select round((sum(h.col1)/sum(p.col1), 2) from B p, C h
given id=2, quantity=select round((sum(col1)/sum(col3)), 2) from C
so for every id the quantity is derived by a different formula, but the quantity value has to be recomputed every month.
need help.

1. update table a
quantity = decode (id,1, <formul1>, id,2 , formula 2...)
2. if you wanto schedule this as monthly task
use dbms_job.submit
send the above query to "What" parameter.
