Hi Everyone,
To start off, we are grabbing data from an Oracle database.
For SP2 in order to pass date prompts through QaaWS or BIWS, we had to enclose the date field in a to_date statement
ie: to_date('31/1/2011 12:00:00 AM','dd/mm/yyyy hh:mi:ss AM')
However if we try the same in SP4 we get the following error
An internal error occured while calling 'processDPCommandsEx' API. (Error: ERR_WIS_30270)
I was wondering what the new syntax for the date prompts are now.
I tried many different combinations
ie:
1/31/2011 ; 31/1/2011 ; 31/1/2011 12:00:00 AM ; 1/31/2011 12:00:00 AM
And unfortunately none of those worked.
If anyone has a solution to this it would greatly be appreciated.
By the way, in SP2 there was a bug with the WEBI prompt where after the first refresh, dates were showing up as numbers and the only way to fix it was to enclose the date with the to_date function or enter the numerical value of the date. So perhaps when they fixed that bug in SP2, it eliminated the to_date functionality in SP4 and now we can't pass in dates anymore.
Thanks
David
