Using number field for date

Hi,
I have a number field that contain a date (YYYYMMDD). In my report I must show the date in the format DDMMYYY.
Please, help me.
TIA, Alex

Hi,
You can also change your query...
Instead of the column you are using, use
to_char(
to_date(
ltrim(
to_char(<date_field>)
, 'YYYYMMDD'
, 'DDMMYYYY'
Hope this helps

Using number datatype for date column

Hi
Is there a side effect for using "number" datatype for "date" column?
If so, what is the disadvantage?
Many thanks

Oracle provides date arithmetic and a number of functions for manipulating DATEs. None of them work with numbers.
For example,
SELECT    TRUNC (order_date, 'MONTH')     AS order_month
,       AVG (ship_date - order_date)     AS avg_delay
FROM       orders
GROUP BY TRUNC (order_date, 'MONTH')
;order_month involves a DATE function; it's pretty easy to find the month that conatins order_date.
avg_delay involves date arithmetic. It's extrememly easy to find how much the time passed between order_date and ship_date.
Depending on how you code dates as numbers, doing either one of the above may be just as easy, but doing the other will be very difficult. You'll waste a lot of effort converting the NUMBERs to real DATEs whenever you need to manipulate them.
Validation can be very difficult for NUMBERs, also.
Watch this forum. It's a rare day when there's not some question about how to get around a problem caused by storing dates in a NUMBER (or VARCHAR2) column. Don't add to that. Always use DATE columns for dates.

Use custom field for work phone number in CUCiLync

Hi,
I have searched and tried out all sorts of different settings for enabling/changing the way CUCiLync searches the Active Directory (AD) for contact phone numbers.
But no matter what setting I use in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cisco Systems, inc.\ Client Services Framework\AdminData and/or HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cisco Systems, inc.\ Client Services Framework\Active Directory hive, CUCiLync still uses the default for Work phone number. The default for this is to use telephoneNumber, the value that I wish to use is the ipPhone field.
The registry values that I have tested so far are these.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cisco Systems, inc.\ Client Services Framework\AdminData
LDAP_AttributeName_businessPhone
LDAP_AttributeName_primaryPhoneNumberForSearches
LDAP_AttributeName_otherPhone
All set to ipPhone, and I have also tested to set it to another field in AD that contains the same value as the ipPhone, that is in my case extensionAttribute5.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cisco Systems, inc.\ Client Services Framework\Active Directory
BusinessPhone
PreferredNumber
DisableSecondaryNumberLookups
First two set to ipPhone and the third set to 0, and I have also tested to set it to another field in AD that contains the same value as the ipPhone, that is in my case extensionAttribute5.
The above values comes from these two urls,
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucimoc/8_5/english/installguide/config_active_directory.html#wp1141403
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucimoc/8_5/english/installguide/config_active_directory.html#wp1137551
The later url have this
Table 3-9 LDAP Registry Subkeys
Subkey   Names
Description
LDAP_AttributeName_primaryPhoneNumberForSearches
Specify   the phone number that you use to resolve most LDAP queries. This value must   match one of the values specified for the following LDAP keys:
•LDAP_AttributeName_businessPhone
•LDAP_AttributeName_homePhone
•LDAP_AttributeName_mobilePhone
•LDAP_AttributeName_otherPhone
The   values that are valid for the LDAP attribute keys listed above are:
•telephoneNumber
•homePhone
•mobilePhone
•otherTelephone
•a   custom LDAP attribute value, for example, myCustomPhoneNumber
The   value of the LDAP_AttributeName_primaryPhoneNumberForSearches key must match   one of the values in the list above, for example, telephoneNumber. Otherwise,   the value of the LDAP_AttributeName_businessPhone key is used.
The version of CUCiLync is 8.5(3)-4.5.9, that is the latest I can find on the support download page, have also tried with earlier version 8.5.(1).
Does anyone have any suggestions for how to achieve this, if at all possible?
Roger Kallberg

This is the reply we got from TAC.
Regarding to your query, Can you please go through the attached flow diagram (also you can see it in the link given below). I hope it will clarify more on the telephone number display behavior in office communicator.
As per this flow chart presently your setup is working as designed. As per the design, the number should be in E.164 format in order to be available in MOC.
You have AD in your network as a source, so OCS pulls this information from LDAP it is integrated with. As per Microsoft, here you need to add Normalization rules to OCS to normalize the number into the E164 format.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb964002%28office.12%29.aspx
Phone number display for MOC contact:
•-          OCS will not provide a contacts number unless it is correctly formatted to the E.164 standard.
•-          The Address Book Service on OCS processes the contacts phone number and attempts to normalize it.
•-          If correctly normalized then the number is inserted into the OCS address book.
•-          Communicator will only display this normalized number if it is properly formatted in E.164 (+13125551234).
•-          The E.164 standard defines an international numbering plan for public phone systems.
•-          In the E.164 standard, each number contains a country code, an area code, and a subscriber number.
•-          Each phone user has a globally unique number.
•-          In Cisco UC Integration for Microsoft Office Communicator, phone numbers in E.164 format must begin with a plus character ("+").
I have done some research to your first question. Can you please just go through the blog given below from the Microsoft.
http://blogs.pointbridge.com/Blogs/schertz_jeff/Pages/Post.aspx?_ID=26.
It tells that If the numbers not in E.164 format then the number will not appear in office communicator if LDAP integrated. Can you please check with Microsoft to see their inputs on this.

Automatically generate sequential record number field for Z table

Hi Experts,
I have a Z table that I would like to add a "record_number" field to, because we are having an issue with duplicate entries not being created in the table. Is there a way to add that field to the z table and have the system automatically assign a value when the insert statement is made?
Thanks
Shane

Hi Shane,
You can use the transaction SNUM to create a number range for your custom table. You can assign your invervals to whatever limit you would like. Once you create this range you can then call the function module below to get the next number before the insert (lv_object is the name of your number range and lv_number will export the next sequential number)
CALL FUNCTION 'NUMBER_GET_NEXT'
 EXPORTING
 nr_range_nr = '01'
 object = lv_object

 number = lv_number

How do you use a field for 255 characters plus in HCM?

There is a 255 character max on the fields in the HCM process and forms.
I see some types in there:
QISR_TAB_TYPE
QISR_TAB_TYPE_TEXT
QISR_TAB_TYPE_STRING
I see the text one is for no length restriction, but when I apply it to the field in designtime interface but still everything truncated at 255.
Is there anyway to use more than 255 characters in a form field in adobe livecycle designer - SAP HCM?

1694040 - SAP_PD process description fields truncated - 1429386 DTT - wrong data element visible for generic service fields - 1492109 Wrong generation of fields of type pad_long_text 2. In form scenario - change the data element of affected field from You will have to specify long text using multiple field indices. In form scenario - change the data element of affected field from STRING to PAD_LONG_TEXT. check your generic service again Kindly use the data element PAD_LONG_TEXT for the fields which are to hold more than 255 characters. For the usage of this data element, you may refer to the note 1401338 released by PA-ER for the requisition request process.

Can I use Time Machine for data recovery?

Hi All,
This might seem a bit confusing at first, so please be patient - and thanks in advance.
I'll try to make this as simple as possible:
1) I had an external HDD that (i stupidly didn't back up) that I used to free up memory on my MB Pro. I knocked it off my desk and it's now unrecoverable - there is a 'might be able to get some data back. but it will cost up to $2000' option.
2) To free up said memory, I moved all the big stuff - photos, movies, documents, iTunes libray to this HDD.
3) Now, before I did this, I was already - and still am - using ANOTHER HDD for my Time Machine back ups.
4) Does anyone have any idea as to whether I could salvage the above mentioned data from an old TM snaphot (?) - assuming it hasn't been over written already?
5) And, if it's possible, can it be done without rolling back the MB to the appropiate date??

Hi Thomas,
Thanks for the quick response! But I didn't think I explained myself very well :s
I originally had everything on the MB internal HDD, and only had 1 HDD which was / is still, my TM HDD.
I then moved all the photos, music etc to the 2nd HDD, to free up memory on the MB HDD.
I dropped the 2nd HDD and it's beyond recovery.
What my thought is - given that originally all the data would have been backed up on the TM HDD, can I recover it from there? (If it hasn't been over written of course)
I'm unsure if the 2nd HDD was included in TM backups. It was usually connected to the MB when TM was running...

How to use Resever Field for Customer Master

My Client Requirement. Price should be determine with Sales ORG, Distribution channel, Division, Districts, Talukas and Villages.

Thanks in Advance

Hello,
the system-behavior that you describe is standard behaviour, because
the fields which you are describe (village and ..) doesn't exist in structure KOMG.
For using this field in the field catalog you can proceed like this:
1. create a new field for example ZZvillage...
2. add the new field in the table T681F for the application 'V' and the
   usage 'A'
3. add the field to the include-structure KOMKAZ
4. fill the new fields in the userexit for pricing
   (Pricing_Prepare_TKOMK (TKOMP)
I hope that the information are helpful for you.

Equium A100 - can I use E drive for data saving?

My Equium A100-27 has an 80GB hard drive, this is slit in half C drive and E drive.
I understand that the E drive is used for system recovery purposes but can I also use it to store data on?
If I do use it for data how much room should be left clear for system recovery?

Hi
I think the E partition is used for Recover image. The Toshiba notebooks are preinstalled with an Toshiba recover disk creator. This tool allows you to create a own disk. And the image is placed on the additional partition

            Next
            mt.LoadFromDataSource()
the prezzo variable store the correct value with decimal but executing the SetValue method I get the matrix column without decimal value.
the data variable store the correct value but executing the SetValue method I get the matrix column blank.
It seems the SetValue method works only for string field type.
What can i do?

I imported many definitions via a mass import. Now I also want to use these definitions for further interfaces (than the imported ones). The most convenient would be of course to just use them as a custom created type. Can I somehow "convert" an external definition to a data type/message type?

Hello Felix,
The External defination which you has been imported that cant use in DT and MT but yeah you can use this in Service interface.
you cant modify that External defination if you want to do that then 1st of all modify it and then reimport it as an another external defination.
and creating service interface with this ED you can use it in your message mapping .
i hope this will help to you to clear your doubt.

Executing xml sql using jdbc adapter for date conversion

Hi experts,
I am following the fllowing blog for date format conversion for a jdbc receiver.
/people/alessandro.berta/blog/2005/10/04/datetime-datatypes-and-oracle-database
I constructed my graphical mapping to generate the following query
DateField in receiver structure = TO_DATE('2008-03-24','DD-MON-YY')
attribute hasQuot = No
The result that i want is 24-MAR-08
I am getting the error in communication channel monitoring as does not match string format.
The database gets successfully updated without this date conversion. But when i try to use this, it give the above error.
Is there any other configuration to be done to make the adapter execute this statement?
Regards,
Shamly

The issue is solved.
The SQL statement was wrong.
The correct version is,( as was specified in the blog ) :-
DateField in receiver structure = TO_DATE('2008-03-24','YYYY-MM-DD')
Automatically in the database it is converted to 24-MAR-2008
