Re: Limit Time Of Day a Filter Runs

2016-08-12 Thread Wallace, Kelvin
You could also create an integer field called Hour and, in the first If Action 
of your Filter, set the field to HOUR($TIMESTAMP$) - then do comparisons.  The 
set fields action will set a value between 0 and 23 based on the 24-hour clock.

I have used something like this in the past   ( Substitute $TIMESTAMP$ or 
$SERVERTIMESTAMP$ for 'Create Date' )
Example of between 1 AM and 5 AM   
('Create Date' - "1/1/70" ) % 86400) >= (1 * 3600)) AND ((('Create 
Date' - "1/1/70") % 86400) <= (5 * 3600   

The Logic is as follows   
Take the date/time and subtract the constant of the first date allowed.   This 
converts the date/time to an integer internally in seconds.   
MOD the date by the number of seconds in a day (This gives you the time of day) 
  

You can then do your comparisons

We have a filter that is set up to send an email and need to limit it so that 
it only sends the email if the current time is between 7 AM and 6 PM.  Does 
anyone know if there is a way to limit this maybe by adding a qualification to 
the run if statement?  Any other ideas on how we may be able to limit the time 
of day the filter fires?

We are on ARS 8.1, and SQL 2008

Re: Limit Time Of Day a Filter Runs

2016-08-12 Thread Mueller, Doug
Todd,

I see several folks have replied, but there are several questions that need to 
be answered first...

When you say "current time is"  According to WHO? And in what Timezone?   
Is it the server timezone you are talking about or the end user's timezone.  
For example, if the server is in New York and the user is in Hawaii (5 hour 
time difference) and the ticket is submitted at 4:32 PM Hawaii time by the user 
in Hawaii, do you want the filter to fire? (remember, it is now 9:32 PM in New 
York where the server sits)

Is the filter tied to the submitter time?   The server time?   The assignee 
time?   Something else?

Once you address this question, you can then determine how to approach the 
problem as you have to be aware that time is not a fixed value, it is relative.

THEN, you may be able to take advantage of the $TIME$ keyword if it is relative 
to the server in some way to have a nice simple qualifier.  If something that 
depends on the submitter or the assignee, then there are lookups and 
calculations to do and then the qualifier can be on the result.

Smart Reporting Installation

2016-08-12 Thread Brian Pancia
Basic question here.  In the documentation I only saw that is recommended not 
to install Smart Reporting on the same server as ARSystem.  In addition to 
Smart Reporting we are using Analytics.  We have a report server setup for 
Analytics already.  Would you recommend loading Smart Reporting on the 
Analytics servers, on the mid-tier server(s), or on it's own server?  If we 
have customers both inside and outside the DMZ I'm assuming we would need a 
Smart Reporting installation on both sides.


So I guess the options would be:


- Install Smart Reporting on all the Mid-Tier servers

- Install Smart Reporting on the Report servers with Analytics

- Install Smart Reporting on their own servers

- Some other recommendation


Which ever option is used we need to take the DMZ into consideration.


Thanks,


Brian

I use this one to limit the filter between Saturday, 9AM to Sunday, 9PM.

((($TIMESTAMP$ > ($DATE$ + ((60 * 60) * 9))) AND ($WEEKDAY$ = "Saturday")) OR 
(($TIMESTAMP$ < ($DATE$ + ((60 * 60) * 21))) AND ($WEEKDAY$ = "Sunday")))

Granted I ran into this in 6.3 but after some db indexes were done, I could not 
manage indexing on the form at all. Couldn’ add, remove or update. So I would 
recommend avoiding it.
