XL reporter pull month name

Dear all,
Can XL reporter pull out period name as "Nov 2007" for date range 01/11/2007- 30/11/2007 instead of period code "200711"?
Regards
Thomas

Hi
I did it as follows
1) =MONTH(RIGHT(ixParam("PER"),2)) in cell A1
2) =YEAR(RIGHT(ixParam("PER"),2)) in cell A2
Format cell A1 - Custom Type MMM
Format cell A2 - Custom Type YY
Then where you want the date to display - =Concatenate(A1,A2)

How to show montha name starting from APR to MAR

Hi,
How to show financial year in report .
I.e
When i select month column in my report i need to get values starting from APR to till MAR. Can any one tell me how to show it.
APR,
MAY,
JUN,
JUL,
AUG,
SEP,
OCT,
NOV,
DEC,
JAN,
FEB,
MAR

Hi,
Steps to achieve,
1. Go to analysis pull it out your month columns two times (let rename it month Id and month name)
2.) edit formula on month Id columns put it below contional statement
E.x:
Case when month name = 'January' then '1'
When month name ='February' then '2'
When case month name='November' then '11' Else '12' end
3.) Go to month name columns in your analysis criteria and edit formula here u just make it first 3 char of your month name columns by using left( month name, 3)
4 ) sort month name columns by using month id columns then hide month id columns it will work as you expected
Another solution:
First you need to add the function monthname in the column formula. This will give you month names.
Ex-MONTHNAME("Cal Date")
To sort, add bin or write case statements in other column and sort it.
Ex- case
when MONTHNAME("Cal Date")='Jan' then 1
when MONTHNAME("Cal Date")='Feb' then 2
end
Hope this help's
Thanks,
Satya

Hi Ram,
Thanks for your Help.I tried in an another way like I created 2 Variable -
Start Date =UserResponse("Enter Month(Start):"
End Date = =UserResponse("Enter Month(End):"
I have created the column header for
start date:
=If([start Date] = "1";"January";If( [start Date] = "2"; "February";If([start Date] = "3";"March";If([start Date] = "4";"April";If([start Date] = "5";"May";If([start Date] = "6";"June";If([start Date] = "7";"July";If([start Date] = "8";"August";If([start Date] = "9";"September";If([start Date] = "10";"October";If([start Date] = "11";"November";If([start Date] = "12";"December"))))))))))))
End Date:
=If([End Date] = "1";"January";If( [End Date] = "2"; "February";If([End Date] = "3";"March";If([End Date] = "4";"April";If([End Date] = "5";"May";If([End Date] = "6";"June";If([End Date] = "7";"July";If([End Date] = "8";"August";If([End Date] = "9";"September";If([End Date] = "10";"October";If([End Date] = "11";"November";If([End Date] = "12";"December"))))))))))))
For the Datas in the column:
Start Date:
=[Sales revenue] Where([Month]=ToNumber(UserResponse("Enter Month(Start):")))
End Date:
=[Sales revenue] Where([Month]=ToNumber(UserResponse("Enter Month(End):")))
I got the Report format as i required

Change of Month names as per selection of Month / Year

We have the following requirements:
1. Change of Month names as per selection of Month / Year e.g. If the user select April 08 then the column name should be April 08, at the same time the next column should be April 07.
2. Next there are two in -line totals as per different logic as recurring rows. e.g Row header is Total and it totals the items in the column, next row header is Comparable total and it is based on checking the adjacent column values for doing the total.
Please let us know if this is feasible and can be done using BI Publisher. If you have any alternate way of doing it using OBIEE also , please share.

Hi,
The parameter / prompt used is for month which can have values from JAN , feb, MAR, APR,....... DEC. and the other PROMPT being YEAR e.g. 2006, 2007, 2008.
The Column Name of the Report SHould get changed as April 08 if selected as month APril and year 2008.The subsequent column of the report should be April 2007. The same applicable for selecting any month/ year
Layout of Report as below
SALES
|| April 08 || April 07
Shop1 100 200
Shop2 300 100

Grouped by Month Name. How do I sort it correctly?

I have a report grouped by a field name that contains only the names of the month (ie. January, February, etc).
When displayed on the report, it'll sort the groups alphabetically (ie. April, then August, then December).
Is there any way to have these group be sorted in the actual month sequence?

Group on this formula:
month ()
This will group numerically 1 through 12.
Then simply DISPLAY the month name in your group header using this formula:
MONTHNAME ()

Wanted to have all previous 6 Months name in sequence....

Hi
I am using BI BEx Designer tool for generating a report on month basis having 0CalMonth on column side like Jan'10 to Jul'10.
Now the problem is if there is no transaction for any month then we wont' get that month name in the report, but i wanted to show all the last 6 months Names in sequence for the data & should show the char value 0 for the month which we dont have trx.
How to do it. Pls let me know if you find any solution on this.
Thanks...

Build a structure In the query designer, containing 6 elements:
The 1st one you filter on JAN and name January, the 2nd one you filter on FEB and name February, etc...
In the query properties you have to make sure you have no zero compression active.
This way the structure will alway display and a zero will show even if you don't have any transactions in the cube.
Best,
Ralf

Sorting Month Name

Hie Guys,
I have a dimension object - "Month" with values - 1, 2, 3, 4 as of now as the current month is April. I have created a variable for the "Month Name".
The formula is given below.
If (Month = 1) Then "Jan"
Elseif (Month = 2) Then "Feb"
Elseif (Month = 3) Then "Mar"
Elseif (Month = 4) Then "Apr"
Elseif (Month = 5) Then "May"
And so on ......
Now, my report has a cross-tab showing monthly employee hours. When using the "Month" object, I am able to sort it in ascending (1,2,3,4) or descending order (4,3,2,1). But, when I use the "Month Name" object, the months are not in order. I sorted the object with custom sort, but, since there is only data till the current month, I am only able to get - Jan, Feb, Mar & Apr in the report. In this case, when data is available for the next month, I will have to rearrange the sorting order again. Could anyone please tell me what I need to do in order for the "Month Name" column to automatically sort in order as new Month data becomes available (i.e. Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, June, July, Aug, Sept, Oct, Nov, Dec)? Thanks.

Hi jeewan Pandey

1) place the Month number in cross tab coulumn
2)Now Create condition rule in 4.x , alterter in 3.x
3)Click on formula and enter the formula you had wirtten or add the month name in that
4) Now you will see the month names intead of month number on cross tab column
Trick 2
1) Place the month number on cross tab
2) place the month name above the month number in cross tab column
3)Now right click on cross tab and hide the month number dimension
Hope this will help you
Let me know still the solution is not resolved

LMS4.2 sending out 2 set of report link & server name

2 set of link report( different module) was sent from LMS , but only 1 set of them is opening.
The server name had not changed since LMS 4.2 was setup for about 1 month.
the working set#1 link:
http://LMS:1741/rme/changeAuditJobDetails.do?button=details&jobid=1050&instanceid=22
below the set#2 link that is not working:
http://LMS.na.abc.com:1741/cmapps/utReportJob.do?crosslaunch=dashboard&reportID=1000.2
http://LMS.na.abc.com:1741/cmapps/utReportJob.do?crosslaunch=dashborad&reportID=1010.14
It seem that the server name appear as" LMS.na.abc.com" in the Campus module report.
and in the DCR Device Polling job (DCRDevPollReport) DCR unreachable Device report.
but Server Name " LMS41" from RME link report.
We notice any link with set#1 type works, even if we edit the set2 link manually , it works.
ie both " LMS " and " LMS.abc.com " will work, but not " LMS.na.abc.com"
Is there anywhere we could edit the link that is being send out by the report.?
Does hostname change script command works ( no actual hostname changes so far)?

Hi,
DBNetLib (Database Network Library) errors occur when the BizTalk Server runtime is unable to communicate with either the MessageBox or Management databases. When this occurs, the BizTalk Server runtime instance that catches the exception shuts down and
then cycles every minute to check to see if the database is available.
Check if there is any server restart activity happening every night?
Alternatively, you might need to
Set the SynAttackProtect registry setting as described in
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/899599. Additionally,
look at the Group policy for that SQL server to be sure that the Group Policy does not periodically UNDO the setting change that you did above.
Refer:
[DBNETLIB][ConnectionWrite (send()).]General network error. Check your network documentation.
Other possible causes could be
1) Low hardware specs (Could be hard disk memory issue, check the free space on the server)
2) Sharing one server or disk for more than one group of BizTalk databases
It could also be a network card issue that could we worked around by turning off TCP Chimney using the following command:
Netsh int ip set chimney DISABLED
For more information, see
Microsoft support article 942861.
Refer for details:

Printing sysdate with local month names

Hi ,
I am trying to print the sysdate (dd-mon-yyyy) in the header of my report using rtf templates. I am using a field <?xdoxslt:sysdate('DD Month YYYY')?>), but this displays the monthname in English.
I dont want to be dependent on local or server language settings.
Is it possible to pass the locale (nl-NL ??) and be sure that the local month name is displayed ?
Thanks !

<?xdoxslt:month_name(5, 1, ‘nl-NL’)?>
So simple, append dddd || function i gave || append YYYY,
anyway dddd or YYYY is going to be numbers ;)<?xdoxslt:sysdate('dddd')?><?xdoxslt:month_name(5, 1, ‘nl-NL’)?><?xdoxslt:sysdate('yyyy')?>
or
<?xdoxslt:xdo_format_date_l($_XDOCTX, xdoxslt:sysdate('YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss-00:00') ,’’,‘nl-NL’, ‘GMT’)?>
