Hi All,
While working on this issue found that when the procedure is created in the same app folder where the master files are present it works fine(lists all columns from all segments) but when i use the same master files and create a report with join in the domain folder it is not working properly in GUI(not listing all the segments).If i edit the code to select columns from the two joined segments and then i open it in GUI it lists all the columns from all segments.

1. Are you running 8105?
2. Are you using App Studio or InfoAssist when you talk about the GUI?
3. Does this happen with every table or only a specific table?
4. Could there be master files in different app paths with the same name? WebFOCUS will pick the first one it sees.
5. Are you creating the JOIN in the report or have you created a Joined Structure and are trying to report off that?

My guess is that your problem might have something to do with #4. Look up WHENCE command here to figure out what app directory you're really using. https://webfocusinfocenter.inf....htm#dtesting1789609

Hi,
I am running 8105M in Windows 10.
I am trying to join in the procedure (Procedure view -> new -> Join).The Join is successful.When i create a report from procedure view(Procedure view->New->Report) using the join it wont list all the segments.

There is only one instance of the master file in the EDASERVE.

Thank you

I tried to reproduce the issue with 8.1.05 App Studio and could not. After I did the join both segments were displayed when I went to the report object. Post the text view of the two master files maybe there is something in there we can spot.


Thank you for using Focal Point!

Hi,
I find that it happens when master files reside on certain app folders.
I moved the car master to an app folder which caused the issue and i faced the same error.
Same when i did with the car in the ibisamp folder it worked fine.
Does this have anything to do with security?

It might have to do with the APP PATH or security on app folders could be the problem as well. From the reporting server console right mouse click on the app folder and choose privileges and it will show who has access to it.

Hi Chuck,
All the segments are listed only when the procedure is created under App folder where the master file is present.
It does not list all segments when procedure is in any other app folder or Domain folder.

I think you need to open a case with techsupport and show them this behavior. Something is not right.

The join code generated in AppStudio

JOIN
SALES/BASE/PLAN/PLAN.PLAN_TABLE.PLAN_ID IN sales/base/plan/plan
TO MULTIPLE SALES/BASE/ACCOUNT/ACCOUNT.ACCOUNT.PLAN_SEQ_ID
IN sales/base/account/account TAG J1 AS J1
END

InfoAssist

JOIN PLAN.PLAN_TABLE.ORIGINAL_EFFECTIVE_DATE IN SALES/BASE/PLAN/PLAN
TO MULTIPLE ACCOUNT.ACCOUNT.ORIGINAL_EFFECTIVE_DATE IN SALES/BASE/ACCOUNT/ACCOUNT TAG J001 AS J001
END.

When the code in Appstudio is manually tweaked it works fine.
