Hi Dayakar,
ReplyDeleteZoooooooom! That’s how speedy and easy this read was! Looking forward to more of such powerful content on Formula columns in oracle reports
I need your help please, I am new at PL/SQL
I need to run a select command with multiple values, if a break down this query into 3 pieces and run them,they works perfectly, but Ive got problems whenever i execute this query because there are multiple values into the where clause and i think its necessary to create lines break so it may work perfectly
how can I get through this?
SELECT job_name, command,description,days_of_week,start_mins,machine, J2.CREATE_STAMP, J2.MODIFY_STAMP
FROM MDBADMIN.UJO_JOBROW JR JOIN MDBADMIN.ujo_job2 J2
ON (JR.JOID = J2.JOID)
WHERE job_name IN ('coscl_PM_zip_log','coscl_PM_clear_log','coscl_PM_alarma_fs','coscl_PM_pmapp1_PM_up','coscl_PM_control_recargas_cod_11','coscl_PM_control_recargas_ingreso','coscl_PM_control_rec_error_cc_agrup_v1'.'coscl_PM_control_procesos_diarios','coscl_PM_rep_recar_x_estado','coscl_PM_control_tiempos_recargas',
'coscl_PM_control_porcentaje','coscl_PM_control_puertos_bloq','coscl_PM_control_errores', 'coscl_PM_control_java','coscl_PM_control_error_cache');
Thank you very much and will look for more postings from you.

Hi There,
ReplyDeleteI’ve often thought about this Formula columns in oracle reports . Nice to have it laid out so clearly. Great eye opener.
I'm trying to set up a reminder. It needs to remind users of a reassessment date that occurs every 90 days based upon the first contact (enrollment_date) with a potential client. But I only need to show the closest upcoming date. So, if a client's next closest assessment date is 12-12-15 it would show that date until 12-13-15 when it would be beginning to show 3-11-16. Is that possible?
Appreciate your effort for making such useful blogs and helping the community.
Obrigado,
Preethi.
