Using variables in a query

Hello all,
I just tried to use variable in a query and dont know how to
output the content in the query. As you can see from what i am
trying, i would only get the name of the query and the field name
not the output. Please tell me the idiotic thing that i am over
looking.
Matt

Mike,
Thanks, ...if you were to output the url.fieldused, then you
would get the name of the field, not the value of the field. The
getfield[ ] is not something that i am familier with and cant seem
to find documentation on this...I need to output the value of the
field and this is where i am stuck.

2. When i put the cursor just before "SELECT" i get a pop up.
a. it is a Toad window which displays the available variables (in this case :SYSDATE_UTS).
b. gives me a dropdown option to select the type (by default VARCHAR2 is selected).
c. there is a value field where i need to enter the value for the Variable.
d. the SQL statement shown in this dilog box does not include the 1st 2 lines

Q: is there something wrong in the syntax i am using?
Sven W. - I have been using your method all these days, which works just fine. i wanted to know how i could use a variable instead.
Business Requirement - My whole intent is to calculate the Age of an incident (Difference between "Reported Date" and current date) and to assign Age Groups (0-1 Days, 2-4 Days,....,20+ Days).

Using variables in the Query Designer

Hi,
I have 2 variables 'Z_COMP_CODE' and 'Z_BUS_AREA'. The type of 'Z_COMP_CODE' is single value ,customer exit and ready for input . The type of 'Z_BUS_AREA' is selection option,customer exit and not ready for input. I want the 2 variables to work like this: when 'Z_COMP_CODE' has the value '3000', 'Z_BUS_AREA' should have all the values excluding '2106'. Now in CMOD I have written the following codes for 'Z_BUS_AREA', But it does not work. 'Z_BUS_AREA' get no value while the query is running.Can somebody tell me how to correct it?thx.
WHEN 'Z_BUS_AREA'.
IF i_step = 2.
         READ TABLE i_t_var_range INTO l_s_range_v
            WITH KEY vnam = 'Z_COMP_CODE'.
         IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
           IF l_s_range_v-low = '3000'.
             l_s_range-low = '2106'.
             l_s_range-sign = 'E'.
             l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
             INSERT l_s_range INTO TABLE e_t_range.
           ENDIF.
         ENDIF.
       ENDIF.

It should be Customer Exit only.
Your code looks like ok to me. Have you tried to debug it? is l_s_range taking values?
Also i don't know much abt insert statement...may be same as append...but just try with append statement also.

Using a characteristic value from an infoCube as a variable in a query

Hi gurus!
I have a query based on an infoCube where I make a restricted key figure. I restrict the key figure by selecting a specific month using 0calmonth.
I need to create a variable that represents a specific month which will change every year. I have this month value stored in another infoCube. In this infoCube I have 0employee and for each employee the characteristic 0calmonth represents the month I need to use in my other query.
So my question is: how can I retrieve the the value from 0calmonth (fx. 012009) from one infoCube and use it as an input in my other query for restricting the key figure using 0calmonth?
Thank you!
Best regards,
Morten

Hi guys,
Thanks for your help so far. I would like to use the replacement path using another query. It seems more simple since I don't need to do any ABAP programming.
However, it doesn't work for me. I made a pre-query on the infoCube, which contains the month I need for my other query. This pre-query uses a variable which restricts the data output to only data for current year up to current month. So if my input is 072009, then I will receive data for 012009-072009. My query result will then show me the month I need, since there will only be data for one specific month. So for 2009, the month that contains any data will be 052009. I need this month(052009) in my other query.
So, in my original query I made a new variable for 0calmonth and I chose replacement path and the pre-query. I made a restricted key figure where I use the replacement path query. However, I am gettings errors, when I check the report and no data is available when I execute the query. The error says:
Variable "prequery_variable" cannot be used in selection "key figure 1"; remove
How you seen this error before?
Thank you!

How to get a field that using variable in order to create a query

Hi,
I found a difficulty when creating a query. so, I would like to ask you some question.
1. How to get a field that using variable which that field I want to put it in my query?
For example, I would like to take quantity field in inventory audit report. And when I put my cursor in
quantity field, there was only variable, item, etc. How to get this and put it in query?
2. How to combined the invoice quantity with inventory audit report quantity?
3. I have a query like this:
SELECT distinct T0.[DocDate] as 'Tanggal', T0.[DocNum] as 'No.Faktur', T1.[ItemCode] as 'Kode Barang',
T1.[Dscription] as 'Deskripsi', T1.[Quantity] as 'Quantity', ((T1.[LineTotal])/(T1.[Quantity])) as 'Harga
Satuan', T1.[LineTotal] as 'Harga Total', T3.[CalcPrice] as 'HPP Satuan', ((T3.[CalcPrice]) * (T1.
[Quantity])) as 'HPP Total', T4.[ItmsGrpNam] as 'Jenis Barang', T5.[SlpName] as 'Nama Sales', T1.
[WhsCode] as 'Kode Gudang' FROM [dbo].[OINV] T0 INNER JOIN [dbo].[INV1] T1 ON T0.DocEntry =
T1.DocEntry INNER JOIN OITM T2 ON T1.ItemCode = T2.ItemCode INNER JOIN OINM T3 ON T2.ItemCode
= T3.ItemCode INNER JOIN OITB T4 ON T2.ItmsGrpCod = T4.ItmsGrpCod INNER JOIN OSLP T5 ON
T0.SlpCode = T5.SlpCode WHERE T3.[TransType] = '13' and T3.[CreatedBy] = T1.[DocEntry] and T0.
[DocDate] >=[%0] and T0.[DocDate] <=[%1] and T4.[ItmsGrpNam] =[%2] and T1.[WhsCode] =[%3]
Is it possible if I just take one invoice with invoice quantity and only show up at once although I have a
lot item cost for that item? (because I'm using FIFOmethod).
Please help me.. cause I'm stuck with this thing :l.
Thank you very much, and I'm waiting your respon soon.
Regards,
Sisca

Try this one:
SELECT distinct T0.DocDate as 'Tanggal', T0.DocNum as 'No.Faktur', T1.ItemCode as 'Kode Barang',
T1.Dscription as 'Deskripsi', T1.Quantity as 'Quantity', ((T1.LineTotal)/(T1.Quantity)) as 'Harga
Satuan', T1.LineTotal as 'Harga Total', T3.CalcPrice as 'HPP Satuan', ((T3.CalcPrice) * (T1.
Quantity)) as 'HPP Total', T4.ItmsGrpNam as 'Jenis Barang', T5.SlpName as 'Nama Sales', T1.
WhsCode as 'Kode Gudang'
FROM dbo.OINV T0 INNER JOIN dbo.INV1 T1 ON T0.DocEntry =T1.DocEntry
INNER JOIN OITM T2 ON T1.ItemCode = T2.ItemCode
INNER JOIN OINM T3 ON T2.ItemCode = T3.ItemCode AND T3.TransType = '13' and T3.CreatedBy = T1.DocEntry AND T3.Warehouse = T1.WhsCode
INNER JOIN OITB T4 ON T2.ItmsGrpCod = T4.ItmsGrpCod
INNER JOIN OSLP T5 ON T0.SlpCode = T5.SlpCode
WHERE T0.DocDate >=[%0\] and T0.DocDate <=[%1\] and T4.ItmsGrpNam =[%2\] and T1.WhsCode =[%3\]

Using procedure with multiple out variables in a query

Hi,
We have a procedure that is time-consuming, which returns 4 variables as out parameters:
procedure calc_values(id in number, val1 out number, val2 out number, val3 out number, val4 out number) isThe id uniquely identifies an product in our database.
I would like to use this in a query (or view), in the form
select s.id, val1, val2, val3, val4 from something s, product_table p
where s.id = p.idI have tried the following approach, but I am kinda stuck
* define a type
* define a table of this type
* write a wrapper function that calls this procedure and returns the results as a table
* pivot the table into columns
* join this with the product table
It feels like I am on the wrong track, i am having trouble to get the id from the product table back into the wrapper function.
Is there a better approach to this? I am on oracle 10g
Thanks!

Not able to use variable on 0LOC_CURRCY in Currency Translation in Query

Hi Gurus,
I am using currecny translation in query for a key figure for which currecy is 0LOC_CURRCY.
Exchange Rate which i am using is updated Yearly. So time reference is 0Calyear (star of calendar year).
Source Currency option is - Source Currency from Data Record
Target Currency - Target Currency Selection with Translation
For target currency, I am using a user input variable which is on characteristics 0CURRENCY.
I want to use a variable which should be on characteristics 0LOC_CURRCY (because it gives Key and Text both in the selection screen of the query). I have created a variable on 0LOC_CURRCY but I am not able to find it in the target currency while defining currency conversion for the key figure.
Please let me know if anybody has any solution.
Regards,
Gaurav

Hi Gaurav,
Instead of defining target currency as "Target Currency Selection with Translation", use the option of "Target currency from Variable" and mention the varibale created on 0loc_currcy there.
This way, you dont need to mention the target currency variable on the key figure. It would autmatically be populated.

Subject: Where are SAP Exit Variables and how to use them in Bex Query

I have seen references to variables: 0cyear (Current Year), 0CALYEAR (current year), oCALMONTH (Current month/year).
Under 0CALMONTH characteristic or 0CALYEAR I do not see any of the variables, so how does
one use these variable in the query. For example I want to create a restricted key figure: Duration restricted by Current calendar year (e.g. 2009 if I am in 2009, 2010 if I am in 2010..).

Thanks a lot. Actally, I was looking in my production system and under varaiables I did not find any SAP Exit variables,
but in development envrionment I do see some.
Why will it not show me these variables in production? Is it because:
1. Some special premssion is required to view this type of variable
or
2. THese varaiables were not installed from Business Content
It is hard for me to beleive, it is permission issue.

Query runs slower when using variables & faster when using hard coded value

Hi,
My query runs slower when i use variables but it runs faster when i use hard coded values. Why it is behaving like this ?
My query is in cursor definition in a procedure. Procedure runs faster when using hard coded valus and slower when using variables.
Can anybody help me out there?

Create new variable in a query using if

Is it possible to create a new variable in a query based on an if statement.
eg select A, B, C from table where condition
C is the new variable and should have a value of 10 if A is > 100 and a value of one if A > 100 and B < 200 for example.

Yes. Why not.
select a,
         b,
         case
             when a> 100 then
                10
             when a> 100 and b<200 then
               1
          end c
from table
where <condition>;Regards.

Select query using variable

Hi all,
If I have a variable with multiple value (returned from bulk collect), how can I pass it into a select query as a condition?
Eg.
set serveroutput on
declare
type v_LockSessInfo is table of integer;
empdata v_LockSessInfo;
begin
select unique sid bulk collect into empdata from v$lock;
[select sid,serial#,username from v$session where sid in (empdata)]
end;
I hope to be able to pass in the variable collected, into the next select statement. How can I achieve it?
Thanks in advance.
Eugene

Sorry for any confusion caused, I have almost 0 knowledge on pl/sql, only can survie on normal sql query.
Further elaboration, the intention of my query is to query out any locking that exists in my DB. It meant to serve as a report to management, so I have to break it down into couple of sections for easier reference (minimising the complication that may arise from others who view the report).
Couple of steps/procedures I am thinking of:
1) query out the unique sid that exists in v$lock (blocking and blocked sessions) <<< this set of returned record (SIDs) should be stored in a variable.
Eg. achived by the select statement "select unique sid from v$lock into [variable]"
2) query v$sessions for the lock details from step 1's output. Username, sid, serial#, machine etc.
Eg. To be achieved by "select sid,serial#...... from v$session where sid in [variable]; Same condition applies to 2 and 3.
3) query v$locked_object to identify which are the blocking/blocked sessions, and who's blocking who from step 1's output.
4) query the locked object and locked record (based on rowid locked) from step 1's output.
This is all that I can think of at the moment. Any opinions that can perform the above activity will be appreciated alot. Hope I'm able to clear up any confusion triggered.
PS: I can't re-query the SID as the SID may change or be lost upon the re-query therefore losing any evident. Thus I was thinking of putting it into a variable for consistent querying for step 2,3 and 4. All 4 steps will be performed within a single script.
Regards
Eugene

Powershell use Connection String to query Database and write to Excel

Right now I have a powershell script that uses ODBC to query SQL Server 2008 / 2012 database and write to EXCEL
$excel = New-Object -Com Excel.Application
$excel.Visible = $True
$wb = $Excel.Workbooks.Add()
$ws = $wb.Worksheets.Item(1)
$ws.name = "GUP Download Activity"
$qt = $ws.QueryTables.Add("ODBC;DSN=$DSN;UID=$username;PWD=$password", $ws.Range("A1"), $SQL_Statement)
if ($qt.Refresh()){
$ws.Activate()
$ws.Select()
$excel.Rows.Item(1).HorizontalAlignment = $xlCenter
$excel.Rows.Item(1).VerticalAlignment = $xlTop
$excel.Rows.Item("1:1").Font.Name = "Calibri"
$excel.Rows.Item("1:1").Font.Size = 11
$excel.Rows.Item("1:1").Font.Bold = $true
$filename = "D:\Script\Reports\Status_$a.xlsx"
if (test-path $filename ) { rm $filename }
$wb.SaveAs($filename, $xlOpenXMLWorkbook) #save as an XML Workbook (xslx)
$wb.Saved = $True #flag it as being saved
$wb.Close() #close the document
$Excel.Quit() #and the instance of Excel
$wb = $Null #set all variables that point to Excel objects to null
$ws = $Null #makes sure Excel deflates
$Excel=$Null #let the air out
I would like to use connection string to query the database and write results to EXCEL, i.e.
$SQL_Statement = "SELECT ..."
$conn = New-Object System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection
$conn.ConnectionString = "Server=10.10.10.10;Initial Catalog=mydatabase;User Id=$username;Password=$password;"
$conn.Open()
$cmd = New-Object System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand($SQL_Statement,$conn)
do{
try{
$rdr = $cmd.ExecuteReader()
while ($rdr.read()){
$sql_output += ,@($rdr.GetValue(0), $rdr.GetValue(1))
$transactionComplete = $true
catch{
$transactionComplete = $false
}until ($transactionComplete)
$conn.Close()
How would I read the columns and data for $sql_output into an EXCEL worksheet. Where do I find these tutorials?

Hi Q.P.Waverly,
If you mean to export the data in $sql_output to excel document, please try to format the output with psobject:
$sql_output=@()
do{
try{
$rdr = $cmd.ExecuteReader()
while ($rdr.read()){
$sql_output+=New-Object PSObject -Property @{data1 = $rdr.GetValue(0);data2 =$rdr.GetValue(1)}
$transactionComplete = $true
catch{
$transactionComplete = $false
}until ($transactionComplete)
$conn.Close()
Then please try to use the cmdlet "Export-Csv" to export the data to excel like:
$sql_output | Export-Csv d:\data.csv
Or you can export to worksheet like:
$excel = New-Object -ComObject Excel.Application
$excel.Visible = $true
$workbook = $excel.Workbooks.Add()
$sheet = $workbook.ActiveSheet
$counter = 0
$sql_output | ForEach-Object {
$counter++
$sheet.cells.Item($counter,1) = $_.data1$sheet.cells.Item($counter,2) = $_.data2}
Refer to:
PowerShell and Excel: Fast, Safe, and Reliable
If there is anything else regarding this issue, please feel free to post back.
Best Regards,
Anna Wang

Using variable with the same name as field name?

I have a complex proc where I have variables with the same name as field name used on a query. something like this:
SELECT a.id_table WHERE a.id_table = id_table
where the last id_table is a parameter sent to the proc:
declare procedure myproc(id_table int)
Is there any way or notation to declare the variable inside the query as a variable or I have to use a different name?

Well, variables are not the only thing you have to change if you want to switch to Oracle.
Although I don't think it is good practice (to use variable name same as column name), here is one example how you can achieve it using EXECUTE IMMEDIATE and bind variable
SQL> select deptno, count(1)
2 from scott.emp
3 group by deptno;
    DEPTNO   COUNT(1)
        30          6
        20          5
10 3
SQL> set serveroutput on
SQL> declare
2 deptno varchar2(10);
3 i number;
4 begin
5 deptno:=10;
6 execute immediate
7 'select count(1) from scott.emp where deptno=:deptno' into i using deptno;
8 dbms_output.put_line('OUT ---> '||i);
9 end;
10 /
OUT ---> 3
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

When using TODATE function MDX query is not correctly generated

Essbase 9.3.1.2 and OBIEE 10.1.3.4.1.
When using TODATE function MDX query is not correctly generated.
This leads to unexpected values not only on cumulative columns in report (generated with TODATE), but also other columns (calculated with AGO function or directly read from cube) have incorrect values.
The problem occurs when you filter on a column that is not in the select list. If you filter on just one level of dimension, results are fine. You can filter on multiple dimensions as long as you filter on just one level of each dimension.
If you filter on two or more levels of one dimension, than results are not correct. In some cases results for TODATE column are all zeros, in some cases it is a random value returned by Essbase (same random value for all rows of that column), and in some cases BI Server returns an error:
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. Essbase Error: Network error [10054]: Cannot Send Data (HY000).
Here is generated MDX code:
With
set [Grupe proizvoda2] as '{[Grupe proizvoda].[N4]}'
set [Grupe proizvoda4] as 'Generate([Grupe proizvoda2], Descendants([Grupe proizvoda].currentmember, [Grupe proizvoda].Generations(4), leaves))'
set [Segmentacija2] as '{[Segmentacija].[RETAIL]}'
set [Segmentacija4] as 'Filter(Generate({[Segmentacija2]}, Descendants([Segmentacija].currentmember, [Segmentacija].Generations(4),SELF), ALL), ([Segmentacija].CurrentMember IS [Segmentacija].[AFFLUENT]))'
set [Vrijeme3] as '{[Vrijeme].[MJESEC_4_2009]}'
member [Segmentacija].[SegmentacijaCustomGroup]as 'Sum([Segmentacija4])', SOLVE_ORDER = AGGREGATION_SOLVEORDER
member [Accounts].[MS1] as '(ParallelPeriod([Vrijeme].[Gen3,Vrijeme],2,[Vrijeme].currentmember), [Accounts].[Trosak kapitala])'
member [Accounts].[MS2] as '(ParallelPeriod([Vrijeme].[Gen3,Vrijeme],1,[Vrijeme].currentmember), [Accounts].[Trosak kapitala])'
member [Accounts].[MS3] as 'AGGREGATE({PeriodsToDate([Vrijeme].[Gen2,Vrijeme],[Vrijeme].currentmember)}, [Accounts].[Trosak kapitala])'
select
{ [Accounts].[Trosak kapitala],
[Accounts].[MS1],
[Accounts].[MS2],
[Accounts].[MS3]
} on columns,
NON EMPTY {crossjoin ({[Grupe proizvoda4]},{[Vrijeme3]})} properties ANCESTOR_NAMES, GEN_NUMBER on rows
from [NISE.NISE]
where ([Segmentacija].[SegmentacijaCustomGroup])
If you remove part with TODATE function, the results are fine. If you leave TODATE function, OBIEE returns an error mentioned above. If you manually modify variable SOLVE_ORDER and set value to, for example, 100 instead of AGGREGATION_SOLVEORDER, results are OK.
In all cases when this variable was modified in generated MDX, and query manually executed on Essabse, results were OK. This variable seems to be the possible problem.

Hi,
Version is
BANNER
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.5.0 - 64bi

CORE 10.2.0.5.0 Production
TNS for 64-bit Windows: Version 10.2.0.5.0 - Production

Sorry, in my last post i forgot to mention that i already created a function based index but still it is not using because, there is a UNIQUE constraint on that column.
Thanks

INSERT statement in JSP using variables

People,
I am having problems inserting data from JSP into a MySQL database.
For example the following works perfectly fine:
String query = "INSERT INTO `test2` (`name`, `topic`, `message`) VALUES ('Jane Doe', 'Hi there', 'Example message')";
But, however the problems take place if I try to use variable values as parameters instead of pre-defined strings.
E.g. the following (among a 100 other ways I have tried by now) does not work):
String query = "INSERT INTO `test2` (`name`) VALUES (`" + userName +"`)";
stmt.executeUpdate(query);
This did not work either:
PreparedStatement PStmt = myConn.prepareStatement("insert into (`name`) values (?)");
PStmt.setString(1, new String("`" + userName + "`"));
PStmt.executeUpdate();
I have tried without parenthesis etc. but what I pretty much get every time is:
500 Servlet Exception
java.sql.SQLException: Column not found: Unknown column 'Jane' in 'field
list'

I do not know much about SQL or JDBC but the material I have seen makes me believe
that I am pretty much doing the right thing.
What is the right way of doing this?
I would greatly appreciate any feedback.

Hi,
I think i know the problem.
Take a look on your String code :
"INSERT INTO `test2` (`name`, `topic`, `message`) VALUES ('Jane Doe', 'Hi there', 'Example message')";
it is not necessary to put QUOTE for the tablename and the fields.
my code work with :
String query = "INSERT INTO test2 VALUES( ' " + 123 + " ' ) ";
( if you inserting into all fields in your table ) OR
String query = "INSERT INTO test2 ( abc ) VALUES( ' " + 123+ " ' ) ";
( if you need to select certain fields ).
or you can try to refer to :
http://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_insert.asp
hope this help.
