My problem is that I was not able to declare parameters through Report Builder.
I was receiving the following error:
ERROR [42000] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Must
declare the scalar variable "#param".
So I googled it and found that it can be solved easily by putting symbol "?" instead of "#parameter" and it did solved my problem for a while.
But now I have another problem. I have a select like:
select * from table t where t.date = ? or t.date2 = ? or t.date3 = ?
Where all three "?" are '2013-aug-01', but each "?" creates a new parameter in the parameters section of Report Builder.
How can I use one parameter for all three cases?
Try this
select * from table t where ? IN (t.date, t.date2, t.date3)
Another way of solving is just delete the two variables created by SSRS and update your query to
select * from table t where t.date = #param1 or t.date2 = #param1 or t.date3 = #param1
Another method write your query
select * from table t where t.date = ? or t.date2 = ? or t.date3 = ?
Let it create the 3 variables. Then go to Dataset, under dataset properties goto parameters section. There update the parameter value of 2 & 3 to Parameter1. Next go in the parameters section and delete the automatically generated Parameter2 & Parameter3.

I'm trying to use a sub-query in the "FROM" section but later get errors "Relation "Table name" does not exist".
I have tried to copy paste my sub-query which works, but creates really long and ugly code, as what I am sending is just a part of the whole thing which represents the same problem.
SELECT Reporter.rid , Reporter.fname , Reporter.lname
FROM Reporter , report , map , keyword , ( SELECT Reporter.rid
FROM Reporter , report , map ,
keyword
WHERE (Reporter.rid = report.rid
AND report.iid = map.iid
AND map.kword =
keyword.kword AND
keyword.subject <>
'health')
) AS nonH
WHERE (Reporter.rid NOT IN(SELECT * FROM nonH) AND Reporter.rid = report.rid)
I would expect this code to work and present me all Reporters who are not linked to anything but 'health'
Error msg is:
ERROR: relation "nonh" does not exist LINE 7: WHERE (Reporter.rid NOT
IN(SELECT * FROM nonH) AND Reporter....
You can't use a derived table in a subquery like that. You either have to reapeat the query for it:
SELECT reporter.rid,
reporter.fname,
reporter.lname
FROM reporter,
report,
map,
keyword,
(SELECT reporter.rid
FROM reporter,
report,
map,
keyword
WHERE reporter.rid = report.rid
AND report.iid = map.iid
AND map.kword = keyword.kword
AND keyword.subject <> 'health') AS nonh
WHERE reporter.rid NOT IN (SELECT reporter.rid
FROM reporter,
report,
map,
keyword
WHERE reporter.rid = report.rid
AND report.iid = map.iid
AND map.kword = keyword.kword
AND keyword.subject <> 'health')
AND reporter.rid = report.rid);
Or you can use a common table expression:
WITH
nonh
AS
(
SELECT reporter.rid
FROM reporter,
report,
map,
keyword
WHERE reporter.rid = report.rid
AND report.iid = map.iid
AND map.kword = keyword.kword
AND keyword.subject <> 'health'
)
SELECT reporter.rid,
reporter.fname,
reporter.lname
FROM reporter,
report,
map,
keyword,
nonh
WHERE reporter.rid NOT IN (SELECT rid
FROM nonh)
AND reporter.rid = report.rid);
That may fix your immediate problem. But to be honest, you query is quite a mess with all that implicit joins of tables which's columns are never used and hard to follow, let alone guess what you might be after. I recommend you rewrite it using explicit INNER JOIN/CROSS JOIN/... syntax. And question yourself what the cross joins are actually good for and if they're really needed.
there is no table called "nonH". You are creating an "nonH" alias to a subquery in your SELECT clause, but that does not create a persistent object with that name.
I have the following select statement in ABAP:
SELECT munic~mandt VREFER BIS AB ZZELECDATE ZZCERTDATE CONSYEAR ZDIMO ZZONE_M ZZONE_T USAGE_M USAGE_T M2MC M2MT M2RET EXEMPTMCMT EXEMPRET CHARGEMCMT
INTO corresponding fields of table GT_INSTMUNIC_F
FROM ZCI00_INSTMUNIC AS MUNIC
INNER JOIN EVER AS EV on
MUNIC~POD = EV~VREFER(9).
"where EV~BSTATUS = '14' or EV~BSTATUS = '32'.
My problem with the above statement is that does not recognize the substring/offset operation on the 'ON' clause. If i remove the '(9) then
it recognizes the field, otherwise it gives error:
Field ev~refer is unknown. It is neither in one of the specified tables
nor defined by a "DATA" statement. I have also tried doing something similar in the 'Where' clause, receiving a similar error:
LOOP AT gt_instmunic.
clear wa_gt_instmunic_f.
wa_gt_instmunic_f-mandt = gt_instmunic-mandt.
wa_gt_instmunic_f-bis = gt_instmunic-bis.

SELECT vrefer
FROM ever

WHERE ( vrefer(9) LIKE temp_pod ). " PROBLEM WITH SUBSTRING
"AND ( BSTATUS = '14' OR BSTATUS = '32' ).
ENDSELECT.
WRITE: / sy-dbcnt.
WRITE: / 'wa is: ', wa_gt_instmunic_f.
WRITE: / 'wa-ever is: ', wa_gt_instmunic_f-vrefer.
APPEND wa_gt_instmunic_f TO gt_instmunic_f.
WRITE: / wa_gt_instmunic_f-vrefer.
ENDLOOP.
itab_size = lines( gt_instmunic_f ).
WRITE: / 'Internal table populated with', itab_size, ' lines'.
The basic task i want to implement is to modify a specific field on one table,
pulling values from another. They have a common field ( pod = vrefer(9) ). Thanks in advance for your time.
If you are on a late enough NetWeaver version, it works on 7.51, you can use the OpenSQL function LEFT or SUBSTRING. Your query would look something like:
SELECT munic~mandt VREFER BIS AB ZZELECDATE ZZCERTDATE CONSYEAR ZDIMO ZZONE_M ZZONE_T USAGE_M USAGE_T M2MC M2MT M2RET EXEMPTMCMT EXEMPRET CHARGEMCMT
FROM ZCI00_INSTMUNIC AS MUNIC
INNER JOIN ever AS ev
ON MUNIC~POD EQ LEFT( EV~VREFER, 9 )
INTO corresponding fields of table GT_INSTMUNIC_F.
Note that the INTO clause needs to move to the end of the command as well.
field(9) is a subset operation that is processed by the ABAP environment and can not be translated into a database-level SQL statement (at least not at the moment, but I'd be surprised if it ever will be). Your best bet is either to select the datasets separately and merge them manually (if both are approximately equally large) or pre-select one and use a FAE/IN clause.
They have a common field ( pod = vrefer(9) )
This is a wrong assumption, because they both are not fields, but a field an other thing.
If you really need to do that task through SQL, I'll suggest you to check native SQL sentences like SUBSTRING and check if you can manage to use them within an EXEC_SQL or (better) the CL_SQL* classes.
I'm assuming this is a simple question, but I don't know Crystal Reports very well. I made a SQL Query which uses the declared dates fields of #beginning_date and #ending_date and I want Crystal to prompt for those fields when run. I added the paramter field in crystal and named it the same thing, but I'm unsure how to get them to sync up. My code is below. Thank you in advance.

DECLARE #beginning_date char(20)
DECLARE #ending_date char(20)
--SELECT #ending_date = '07/31/2016' --23:59:59'
--SELECT #beginning_date = '07/01/2016' --00:00:01'

SELECT --Sum(CASE when Billing_Ledger.subtype in ('BI','ND') then

FROM Billing_Ledger
JOIN Patient_Clin_Tran ON

Billing_Ledger.coverage_plan_id = Coverage_Plan.coverage_plan_id

JOIN Payor ON
Coverage_Plan.payor_id = Payor.payor_id
WHERE ( Coverage_Plan.billing_type <> 'CAP' or Coverage_Plan.billing_type is null )
and Billing_Ledger.accounting_date >= #beginning_date
and Billing_Ledger.accounting_date < dateadd(day, 1, #ending_date)
and Patient_Clin_Tran.Clinic_id = 'NP' and payor.name = 'Mainecare' and (Billing_Ledger.subtype in ('BI','ND'))
--GROUP BY Patient_Clin_Tran.Clinic_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.service_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.program_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.protocol_id --, Payor.Name, billing_ledger.amount, payor.type
ORDER BY Patient_Clin_Tran.Clinic_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.service_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.program_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.protocol_id
Firstly you should turn your query into a stored procedure thus:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[mySPName]
#beginning_date date,
#ending_date date
AS
SELECT Patient_Clin_Tran.Clinic_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.service_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.program_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.protocol_id, billing_ledger.amount
etc.
Now when adding the database connection to your CR report file, after selecting your server and database you will see three options tables, views and stored procedures. Simply select the new procedure from the list. CR will now automtically add the parameters, and will prompt you for values. If you leave the values blank, then at runtime CR will automatically prompt the user for these values.
You will also note that I changed the type of the parameters to date; this is necessary so that CR knows to include a calendar selector in the parameter prompt.
I have created a report using Ireport 4.5 but report is running very slow I think just because of multiple UNION and JOINS.
I am copying a simple query for testing purpose:-
SELECT b.Project_Id,
b.Project_Manager,
b.project_title,
b.Project_location,
b.Project_Level,
SUM(COALESCE(b.Project_Budget, 0)) Projected,
SUM(COALESCE(c.Accounting, 0)) Actual
FROM t_authorized_budget a, t_project_c b,t_project_allocation c
WHERE a.Project_Id = b.Project_Id and b.project_id=c.`Key`
and a.Project_Id = c.`Key`
and $X{IN,b.project_location,p_project_location}
and $X{IN,b.project_manager,p_project_manager}
and $X{IN,b.project_id,p_project_id};
So I created a procedure CALL GetAllcompo() using this query but without
$X{IN,b.project_location,p_project_location}
and $X{IN,b.project_manager,p_project_manager}
and $X{IN,b.project_id,p_project_id};
Now i am trying to add these conditions in procedure while calling from Ireport.
How can I do that?
Do you need to use the procedure? I do this by adding another parameter. First, prompt the user to define what type of WHERE clause you're using:
$P{PROJECT_PROMPT}
And then create a second parameter ($P{PROJECT_SQL_DEF}) with a default expression that defines your WHERE clause:
$P{PROJECT_PROMPT} == 'SHORT' ?
" ' a.Project_Id = b.Project_Id
and b.project_id=c.Key
and a.Project_Id = c.Key '" :
" ' a.Project_Id = b.Project_Id and b.project_id=c.`Key`
and a.Project_Id = c.`Key`
and $X{IN,b.project_location,p_project_location}
and $X{IN,b.project_manager,p_project_manager}
and $X{IN,b.project_id,p_project_id} ' "
In your query:
SELECT b.Project_Id,
b.Project_Manager,
b.project_title,
b.Project_location,
b.Project_Level,
SUM(COALESCE(b.Project_Budget, 0)) Projected,
SUM(COALESCE(c.Accounting, 0)) Actual
FROM t_authorized_budget a, t_project_c b,t_project_allocation c
WHERE $P!{PROJECT_SQL_DEF}
I'm trying to figure out a way to store metadata about a column without repeating myself.
I'm currently working on a generic dimension loading SSIS package that will handle all my dimensions. It currently does :
Create a temporary table identical to the given table name in parameters (this is a generic stored procedure that receive the table name as parameter, and then do : select top 0 * into ##[INSERT ORIGINAL TABLE NAME HERE] from [INSERT ORIGINAL TABLE NAME HERE]).
==> Here we insert custom code for this particular dimension that will first query the data from a datasource and get my delta, then transform the data and finally loads it into my temporary table.
Merge the temporary table into my original table with a T-SQL MERGE, taking care of type1 and type2 fields accordingly.
My problem right now is that I have to maintain a table with all the fields in it to store a metadata to tell my scripts if this particular field is type1 or type2... this is nonsense, I can get the same data (minus type1/type2) from sys.columns/sys.types.
I was ultimately thinking about renaming my fields to include their type in it, such as :
FirstName_T2, LastName_T2, Sex_T1 (well, I know this can be type2, let's not fall into that debate here).
What do you guyz would do with that? My solution (using a table with that metadata) is currently in place and working, but it's obvious that repeating myself from the systables to a custom table is nonsense, just for a simple type1/type2 info.
UPDATE: I also thought about creating user defined types like varchar => t1_varchar, t2_varchar, etc. This sounds like something a bit sluggy too...
Everything you need should already be in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
I can't follow your thinking of not using provided tables/views...
Edit: As scarpacci mentioned, this somewhat portable if needed.
I know this is bad, but I will post an answer to my own question... Thanks to GBN for the help tho!
I am now storing "flags" in the "description" field of my columns. I, for example, can store a flag this way : "TYPE_2_DATA".
Then, I use this query to get the flag back for each and every column :
select columns.name as [column_name]
,types.name as [type_name]
,extended_properties.value as [column_flags]
from sys.columns
inner join sys.types
on columns.system_type_id = types.system_type_id
left join sys.extended_properties
on extended_properties.major_id = columns.object_id
and extended_properties.minor_id = columns.column_id
and extended_properties.name = 'MS_Description'
where object_id = ( select id from sys.sysobjects where name = 'DimDivision' )
and is_identity = 0
order by column_id
Now I can store metadata about columns without having to create a separate table. I use what's already in place and I don't repeat myself. I'm not sure this is the best possible solution yet, but it works and is far better than duplicating information.
In the future, I will be able to use this field to store more metadata, where as : "TYPE_2_DATA|ANOTHER_FLAG|ETC|OH BOY!".
UPDATE :
I now store the information in separate extended properties. You can manage extended properties using sp_addextendedproperty and sp_updateextendedproperty stored procedures. I have created a simple store procedure that help me to update those values regardless if they currently exist or not :
create procedure [dbo].[UpdateSCDType]
#tablename nvarchar(50),
#fieldname nvarchar(50),
#scdtype char(1),
#dbschema nvarchar(25) = 'dbo'
as
begin
declare #already_exists int;
if ( #scdtype = '1' or #scdtype = '2' )
begin
select #already_exists = count(1)
from sys.columns
inner join sys.extended_properties
on extended_properties.major_id = columns.object_id
and extended_properties.minor_id = columns.column_id
and extended_properties.name = 'ScdType'
where object_id = (select sysobjects.id from sys.sysobjects where sysobjects.name = #tablename)
and columns.name = #fieldname
if ( #already_exists = 0 )
begin
exec sys.sp_addextendedproperty
#name = N'Scd_Type',
#value = #scdtype,
#level0type = N'SCHEMA',
#level0name = #dbschema,
#level1type = N'TABLE',
#level1name = #tablename,
#level2type = N'COLUMN',
#level2name = #fieldname
end
else
begin
exec sys.sp_updateextendedproperty
#name = N'Scd_Type',
#value = #scdtype,
#level0type = N'SCHEMA',
#level0name = #dbschema,
#level1type = N'TABLE',
#level1name = #tablename,
#level2type = N'COLUMN',
#level2name = #fieldname
end
end
end
Thanks again
