Application Express :: Dashboard And Basic Input Forms And Reports
Oct 29, 2012
I have been tasked to look at a technology / frameworks that will allow our company to develop tools that is quick and easy to learn and easily supported. We use Oracle architecture extensively in the organization and also have APEX 4.2 installed for development purposes. We have two basic requirements or functionality that we need to implement and I and now looking at a proof of concept to determine whether we should adopt APEX or not.
1. Forms Based Tools
We have many databases with static content and users would like to have access to the data via a form. The form will allow the user to enter parameters (eg date) and on hitting a "Submit" Button, the database will be queried and a report generated and presented.
2. Diagnostics Tools
This is a bit more involved and we require a view of our static data in real time. If a specific KPI threshold is violated (eg MOC < 85%) we would like to present an alarm on a dashboard showing the alarm. For example if there are 5 entities that MOC < 85% we would like to show a "red" indicator. If no entities violate a threshold and are above MOC > 85% we want to show a green indicator. We also want a drill down function, where if the indicator is "red", a drill down will show the details of all the entities that have violated the threshold.
I have described our basic requirements, but if it can easily be done in APEX we will definitely motivate for its use.

I'm using Apex4.1 on a hosted platform. I'm trying to build a business application and the client wants a Dashboard.
Here is the best way I can explain it:
The dashboard displays a series of rows in the table. When you click on the "edit" button, it runs a query and displays it data on a report. How would I build this?
Let me explain it a different way:
The home page shows a table report with Column 1, Column 2, Column 3.
I want to make it so where you can click any ROW and then it goes to a different page that shows all of the data So the Home Page you can just see 3 Columns, but the next page will have all the columns.

I would like to enter input in for a select list. That is, if I have a select list for the common colours (blue, green, red, ... ) that a user could query on, then I would like a user to be able to type in the colour - purple in the box next to the select list. I've looked at the select list options and couldn't see anything obvious?

I'm using apex 4.1.1 And i want to use a Date Picker item on my page. This works, but.. When a user selects a date you can see the date highlighted. But in the "textarea"corresponding tot the datepicker is not showing the date. This shows the date after clicking the close button.
I would like to show the date directly after selecting a new date.

I am trying to redirect to different pages based on user inputs. I have a form in which I have one text item and a submit button. For example consider text item to be empno; So once the user enters a empno and hits submit button; I need to redirect to different pages based on this job.
For Ex:
if user inputs empno whose job is 'ANALYST' then redirect to page 1
if user inputs empno whose job is 'MANAGER' then redirect to page 10
For this scenario. i wrote a pl/sql process for the submit button; but no luck -- its not at all redirecting instead its in the same page. Below is the process.
declare
v_job varchar2(20);
begin
select job into v_job from emp where empno = :P9_EMPNO_R;
if v_job = 'ANALYST' then
OWA_UTIL.REDIRECT_URL('f?p=&APP_ID.:1:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.::', TRUE);
[code]....

We have an issue after migrating to apex 4.2.1. We have a select list and use another couple of dummy items to be used as its label instead of giving the text value to the LABEL control. Only one of the dummy items is shown as a label for the select list conditionally based on another value. It was working fine with the earlier versions upto 4.1, but with the introduction of grid in 4.2, its now displaying the select list on a new row (ie the lable in one row and the select list on the next row).
However, we really would like to solve this by having a way to display the label of the select list either in "required format style" or as an "optional style". The display style should be determined only at runtime.
Example. Say P100_MY_SELECT_LIST is the select list
The label for this item is "My Select List Label"
I have another dummy item P100_DUMMY
if P100_dummy = 1 then the label "My Select List Label" should be displayed in red and with an * *My Select List LabelOtherwise it should be in black and without * My Select List Label.

I am building an application to edit database data through interactive reports. I would like to add a button to open a pdf file of the report, where the user can save or print it. I tried going to Shared Components>Report Queries and then create. I went through the steps but when I get to the end where it says "Test Report" I get this error:
ORA-20001: The printing engine could not be reached because either the URL specified is incorrect or a proxy URL needs to be specified
What can i do to fix this, or is there an easier way to do this?
I am using APEX 4.0.2.00.09
This app will be distributed to other computers if that makes any difference.

As far as I know, in APEX 4.0 no other user other than the one who created a Public report can delete it. Can this behavior be changed somehow?

When users are selecting a saved report on a given Interactive Report, they must search the entire list of saved reports for that IR because the choices are not sorted. Is there a way to improve the order that the choices are displayed in?

I have two SQL reports on the same page.
Those SQL reports are built with apex_items. Afterwards I'm updating them with a manual process (apex_application.g_fxx for ..loop). I'm using different IDs on both reports for the apex_items.
It's working fine for the first report displayed. But not for the second one. If I swap the two reports, it's always the first that will be updated.
Does it mean that we cannot use the apex_application to update more than one report and that I have to use a page per report?
I'm using APEX 4.0.0.00.46

I am using "Function Returning SQL Query" (as query is dynamic) to draw the bar chart (flash).
I am facing some issues while trying creating a BI report for this chart.
Issue is : In Shared Components -> Report Queries : Its only expecting an SQL Query.
Do we have any ways to define a "Function Returning SQL Query" over here ? Note that, If using a static SQL both charts / BI reports are working fine with out any issues.

I am using APEX 4.0 and have a task of implementing the old tabs (older versions of APEX) for the IRR when they are saved. My users are not a fan of the select list when the IRRs are saved. I have located a site [URL] .....
that has this implemented but the tabs are not displaying within my application on apex.oracle.com, only the saved report names with no spacing. getting the tabs to display and/or possibly adding a dash (-) between each saved report name?
I added a Report Region as a 'PL/SQL Dynamic Content' and added code below in the Source. Am I missing anything to get the tabs to display like the example?
DECLARE
CURSOR cur_saved_ir (p_app_id IN NUMBER, p_page_id IN NUMBER, p_user IN VARCHAR2)
IS
SELECT '<span id="'||REPORT_ID||'" onclick="gReport.pull('''||REPORT_ID||''')">'||
[code]...

I have 4 reports on the same page. I have added a checkbox column to each one. On clicking I want to populate a collection with the value of the id of the corresponding row and then have a button acting on the whole list.
My code to get the id of the item that contains the value I want is this
id = 'f02_' + $(this.triggeringElement ).attr('id').substr(4,4);
But there is an f02_0001 for each report, and the code just finds the first one, rather than the one in the context of the report being clicked.
<input name="f02" id="f02_0001" type="hidden" value="2072"/>
....
<input name="f02" id="f02_0001" type="hidden" value="2052"/>
...
etc etc.
All that is ever picked up is 2072
They have different table ids but I don't know how to reference the correct ones in my code.

I'm creating Tool Tip definitions for the Operators in the Filter on the Interactive Reports. I was looking for a definition for the 'Contains' operator and from what I've found this operator is used to do a text search and it returns a relevance score for every row selected.
I've also read that in order for that score to be determined that the column(s) need to be indexed with a CONTEXT index. Non of the columns in the tables are indexed with a CONTEXT index, however, when I put a value in the Expression box for a column I get a record returned.
If I run the same query in PL/SQL Developer like:
SELECT <column>
FROM <table>
WHERE contains(<column>,<search text>,1) > 0;
I get an error that the column is not indexed, so how does it work in APEX?

Using apex 4.1.1 , linux , 11gr2
Basically I have requirement to generate a Word doc (letter to a Word mail merge) from a button/navigation link pressed on Apex page which will gather data from the report and fill in values in appropriate place in Word doc.
Is this even possible with Apex with/o BI Publisher
I have Fop installed and tested , PDF works great but excel and RTF is not reading the encoding on attachment download.I am aware of new PDF feature in 4.2.2 but upgrade is just not the scope right now.

I have developed a report using apex shared components (report query and report layout) along with BI Publisher for report printing in pdf format. the Report template is built using Template Builder for Word. I have configured my Apex4.1 env with BI Publisher 11. This report is working fine for hardecode ID ( like REQUEST_ID=10 ). to make report dynamic i have made following additions in the report
I have added where clause in report query as WHERE REQUEST_ID = :REQUEST_ID (:REQUEST_ID is the text field in my page).
Added a text field names :REQUEST_ID to get user input at run time.
Create a button and add Repot Query URL in its properties. When i run the report with some valid value in :REQUEST_ID text field i did not get expected result infect there is no record getting displayed in the PDF file. i think this is not the write way to do this but interestingly im not getting any error. how can i get this functionality in apex this way or the other ?

am not very experienced with SQL. I have two tables:
Class
-----
ID (int)
Teacher (nvarchar)
Subject (nvarchar)
Student
--------
ID (int)
ClassID (int)
Name (nvarchar)
I am trying to write a SQL query that will give me the total number of students in each class. I have tried the following:
SELECT
c.ID,
c.Teacher,
c.Subject
COUNT(s.ID)
FROM
Class c LEFT OUTER JOINT ON Student s c.ID=s.ClassID
Unfortunately, that gives me an error of:Column 'Class.Teacher' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.
I'm afraid if I place everything in a GROUP BY clause, I will get some invalid results.

We'll soon start an upgrade of our Forms / Reports 6i Application to 11g. I was wondering, maybe, it would be nice to add some value for the upgrade process as a whole, using some of Apex new features like web mobile interface or maybe an integration between Forms an Apex, for example to provide users with the powerful features of Interactive Reports, just to name one.
I have found this interesting link: URL.... (not a 100% clear for me, but at least it is a start).Obviously, to make it attractive, one would expect automatic login between the two Apps. As far as i know, this could be done like this:
1) Using SSO. With that a Portal / Forms / Reports/ Discoverer/ version would be mandatory (too expensive for some clients).
2) Oracle Access Manager? Not sure, can Oracle Forms connect to Access Manager? or LDAP? How about the licensing costs?. Not a clue.
3) Make all Apex pages public? Not feasible.
4) Now this one: in our forms application, every user authenticates within the application and we internally map that application user to an actual database user. At all times we hold metadata info about the current user (app, and DB), as well as application context. So this is my question:
It is possible to create an Apex app, with database authentication method, and somehow pass the metadata from forms, and have a kind of custom login procedure that does all the application to DB user conversion process and application context setting?
