Using lookup field inside dimension + data base.

Good morning,
I'm trying to create drill down for my report with the follow caracteristics.
- Regions DataObject and this contains fields from an external data source.
- Exams DataObject and this contains lookup fields which uses fields from Regions.
- Exams DataObject contains a dimension and this one has a hierachy that uses my lookup fields.
When I access my report I try to do a drill down. But an exception occurs saying that field doesn't exists.
This concept that I've tried to create is correct ? If yes , what I'm doing wrong ?
Thanks

Hi Harold,
Here's a workaround that could turn into a solution.
Make sure that you're working on a COPY of the database, as there is potential for an error to cause loss of data. The easiest way to create a copy is to do a Save as... and make a small change to the DB name. The newly named version will be the active version, preserving the "old" version from inadvertent changes.
In the "new" version:
Go Layout > Define Fields...
Define a new Calculation type field with the formula 'fieldname' , using the name of the recalcitrant field where I've used fieldname. Set the Display as button to Text (if appropriate).
Click OK, then Done. (This step is necessary to force the calculation of values for this field,)
Go Layout > Define fields... (again)
Click on the "new" field to select it.
Change its Type to Text (or to whatever type the "old" field was).
Click Modify, then Done.
Remove the "old" field from each layout where it appears, and replace it with the "new" field. Set the format in Layout for each occurence of the field.
Return to Browse, and Print a test page to check the results.
Regards,
Barry

  • Using R function on Oracle data base

    for using R, I only can use Oracle data mining algorithms or I can use R function like social network in Oracle data base?

    Oracle Advanced Analytics provides multiple language (SQL, R and if we include GUIs, Oracle Data Miner workflow UI) support to the in-DB analytics. Using SQL, R or the ODM'r GUI, you can access a library of simple descriptive, summary and coparative statistics that have been implemented in the Oracle Database + a dozen hi-perf in-DB data mining algorithms (e.g. regression, decision trees, text mining, clustering, associations, anomaly detection, etc.) and solve a wide range of business and technical problems.
    Should you require additional techniques e.g. R CRAN packages, then Oracle Advanced Analytics supports that through R to SQL transparancy where it "pushes down" R language intentions to matching in-DB SQL functions e.g. ETL, stats and data mining OR it can make a callout to R via "embedded R mode" and have the Database manage the flow of data and the process.
    There is an OTN Discussion Forum that focuses entirely on the "R" aspects of the Oracle Advanced Analytics Option. I suggest that you re-post your questiion here R Technologies for additional discusssions and for the benefit of that Oracle Advanced Analytics/Oracle R Enterprise OTN forum/community.

  • GetListItems CAML query using Lookup fields

    Hi,
    I am struggling to find the correct CAML query syntax to use for GetListItems where I need to return an item ID based on a query involving both a lookup field (lookup is to a column within the same list) and a text field.
    For Example (but changing one of the below to a lookup field):-
    <soap:Body>
        <m:GetListItems>
          <m:listName>ListName</m:listName>
          <m:query>
    <Query>
      <Where>
        <And>
          <Eq>
            <FieldRef Name="LevelOne" />
            <Value Type="Text">"test1"</Value>
          </Eq>
          <Eq>
            <FieldRef Name="LevelTwo' />
            <Value Type="Text">"test2"</Value>
          </Eq>
        </And>
      </Where>
    </Query>
    </m:query>
    <m:viewFields>
    <FieldRef Name ="ID" />
    </ViewFields>
    </m:viewFields>
    </m:GetListItems>
    </soap:Body>
    Any help appreciated!

    When you query a lookup column, you can choose to either query by text value or by lookup ID number (that is, the ID of the item being looked up).
    Here are examples of both:
    <FieldRef Name="MyLookupColumn" />
    <Value Type="Lookup">Thriggle</Value>
    <FieldRef Name="MyLookupColumn" LookupId="TRUE" />
    <Value Type="Lookup">100</Value>

  • I can no longer compose using my exisiting e mail data base system does not pull up existing e mail addresses

    Suddenly when I compose an e mail the system no longer recognizes my existing e mail data base or e mails I have sent to clients on many occasions. I have to manually pull up the e mail copy and paste it into the send section. This does not happen when I use my g mail on internet explorer.

    Hi Olivier,
    Thanks very much for that. it worked on my powerbook(running Tiger). I went to the link and followed the instructions and it worked. Did i mention that my dad who has a iMac running Leopard now has the same problem. I thought i would just do the same but the Preference in Mail for Leopard is of course different. There is no icon called "Server Settings" under Accounts section like there is on mine. Do you have a link for the same kind of instructions for Leopard?
    Thanks again,

  • Field problems with Data Base

    My daughters is getting her 748 Christmas card list ready and one of the fields will not conform to the font and color change from the menu.
    It will indicate that it is size 18 but when viewed it is much smaller. All other fields conform to the selected size and color.
    This problem is with the input layout as well as our Greeting cards layout.
    We have been using this DB for over 10 years without problems. I have used many very large DB's in my business for years and have never seen this.
    I took a copy of her DB home and tried it on my Mac and same problem.
    Added note:
    When I manually change the individual field in browse mode it will comform, but we don't want to manually change all 748 records.

  • Edit field in a Data Base Table

    Hi Everyone,
    I am trying to change field VERME(available stock) in LQUA table. The requirement is whenever the value is less than zero in VERME, we should change that to 0.
    I know its not good to update the DB table directly, but there is no other alternative. The scope is very limited and I am trying to write some program just for this only purpose.
    Have you guys any sample program for this requirement?
    Thanks
    Kumar.

    Hi,
    You can update a database table by first locking the table using Function module
    ENQUEUE_TABLE_E
    by passing table name.
    Then update record in table using statement
    update LQUA set VERME = 0
    WHERE VERME le 0.
    After this statement unlock the database table using function module
    DEQUEUE_TABLE_E.

  • IDOC field to SAP data base field

    Is there any way to find out the field names of SAP database table associated with the IDOC fields??
    I would appreciate for any types of help in this.
    Pranav

    Hi,
    To find inbound FM, you can go to transaction WE57. Go to selection -> by contents (menu), select basic type and enter the corresponding IDoc type. The system will display the corresponding FM(s).
    You can also go to transaction WE64 to find the inbound and outbound FM(s).

  • Appleworks freezes when attempting to change a data base field

    In a data base I created, trying to change a number in one field will freeze Appleworks. A number can be entered, but any attempt to delete, add to or change the data in that one field causes a freeze. This does not happen in any other field in this data base, nor in any other document, as far as I know. This is a fairly recent problem, and did not occur when the data base was first created.
    Is there a way to fix this without losing all the data in that field?
    Thanks!

    Hi Yvan,
    I'm sorry, but your link did not help my particular problem.
    Can I make a list of the "freezing" field and an identifying second field, delete the problem field, and then re-enter the data in a newly created field? Being efficient (read lazy) I was trying to get away from having to re-enter all the data. There are only 384 records, but the thought of redoing even one field is mind-numbing.
    Anyone else have a suggestion???
    Thanks!

  • Data Source for BSEG Data base table

    Hi Every one,
    I need to create a data source for the data base table BSEG (Function Module Extraction).
    I have followed below steps.
    I have created extarct structure which contains all the fields of BSEG Data base table.If I save the data source I am getting error.
    If I remove all the currecy fields from extract structure, I am able to activate the data sorce.
    So Could you please explain me how to extract currency fields.

    Hi,
    Firstly, can you explain why you need a generic extractor for BSEG? There are already 2 datasources for BSEG, they are:
    0FI_GL_4
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/0c/b4973c115a6f3ae10000000a114084/frameset.htm
    0FI_GL_14
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/49/5700570223413085021a8b4ef1087a/frameset.htm
    To use 0FI_GL_14, you should use the new GL in ECC side.
    On the other hand, for your problem, your problem may occur if you did not give the reference unit field of your currency field in your extraction structure. when you double click the  the currency field, you will see the ref. field, give the reference unit field in this area.
    Regards.

  • What program to replace a Data Base program like old AppleWorks?

    Not sure if this is the correct discussion board, but I would like to find out what applications people are using to replace the AppleWorks Data Base program. In the past I have worked with File Maker Pro and the AppleWorks program. I see nothing like that in either iBook or Numbers.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Like Dennis, I continue to use AppleWorks for what iWork doesn't do. I think that sooner or later a system upgrade may render AppleWorks useless or, at least, too unstable. I plan on keeping at least one Mac in the house running an OS AppleWorks works in.
    In the meantime, I have left a few feedback posts to both the Numbers team or the Pages team.
