Using ADF calendar to show employee absences

Question

Hi,
(Actually this question belongs to ADF as well as HRMS..so posting in both the forums)
We are having JDeveloper 11.1.2.4
We need to show employee absence calendar in ADF page.
Question 1) We believe we can use ADF Calendar component for this. Kindly confirm.
I gone through "How to Use the ADF Faces Calendar" section in ADF Guide and tried to implement Employee Absence Calendar accordingly (based on seeded oracle table - PER_ABSENCE_ATTENDANCES.)
However step 2 mentions creating 3 named bind variables in VO:
A string that represents the time zone
A date that represents the start time for the current date range shown on the calendar.
A date that represents the end time for the current date range shown on the calendar.
I created these 3 named bind parameters accordingly. However when I run the page with ADF calendar, it shows following error:
Attempt to set a parameter name that does not occur in the SQL: timeZone
Question 2) How to resolve this error?
Kindly advise.
Thanks,
Vivek

Answer 1

Hi minh-hieu,
According to your description, you want to calculate YTD value of Sales Amount. Right?
As we tested in our environment, the expression you assign in This function is correct. It can return the YTD values properly:
So please pay attention to the set expression in your SCOPE statement. Try the code below:
SCOPE(MEASURES.[YTD Sales]); --Calendar YTD
SCOPE([DimDates].[Year].[Year].MEMBERS,[DimDates].[Year-Qtr-Month-Day].MEMBERS);
THIS = AGGREGATE( PERIODSTODATE([Date].[Year].[Year], [Date].[Year].CURRENTMEMBER), [Measures].[Sales Amount]);
END SCOPE;
END SCOPE;
