I am creating a report which generates the data to a PDF/CSV based on users Input.When I create the report using Report Builder and execute the report,Delimited data appears in a PDF layout.
But if I add the below code in After Parameter Form trigger,the column headers keeps repeating with the data.
function AfterPForm return boolean is
begin
IF :P_DESTYPE = 'CSV' THEN
:MODE :='DEFAULT';
:DESFORMAT:='DELIMITED';
Elsif :P_DESTYPE = 'PDF' THEN
:DESTYPE := 'CACHE';
:DESFORMAT:='PDF';
END IF;
return (TRUE);
end;
[code]....
But the PDF output seems fine where the header is shown only once.I could see many posts regarding this in Oracle reports 6i wherein delimited_hdr=no is used in Command Line but I would like to know the work around in Oracle reports 10g.
My company recently purchased a package that is capable of automatically printing/caching reports generated by Oracle Reports at specified points in workflows, and so I am trying to design some reports that match the output of previous systems.
I'm having particular difficulty making one of them work the way I need it to. I've put a screenshot of how the report should be laid out (and how I've currently laid it out in Oracle Reports Builder) in the attachment. I'm using Oracle Reports Builder 10g against an 11g database.
Here's what I'm trying to accomplish:
The Header Information in Repeating Frame 1 should be visible on every page of the report. Shipments may cover multiple pages, and I want this section (logo, shipment number, date, carrier) on all of them. The Logo is in a BLOB in the database.
The information in Repeating Frame 2 should be visible on the first page for a shipment, but not on any other pages for the same shipment. Multiple shipments may be printed at a time, so this should only appear at the beginning of the group.
The information in Repeating Frame 3 and the nested Repeating Frame 4 should be visible on every page. I've tried multiple methods to make this work.
I've tried setting the main frame (Repeating Frame 1) to print on all pages, as well as Repeating Frames 3 & 4, with Repeating Frame 2 set to print only on the first page. This combination only yields the first page of the first shipment - no more.
I've tried removing frames 2, 3 and 4 from frame 1 and making them all independent of one another. This seems to yield a cartesian product-like result with all shipment lines attached to the first page and only frame 1 showing up on subsequent pages.
I've tried moving the "Header" information into the top margin. When I did, I got a "frequency below the group..." type of error for the fields in the margin. I then tried to create summary columns with breaks on pages that I could reference in the margin, but I couldn't get the image (from the BLOB) to output.
During the Report Runtime the Each Page Contain 55 Lines. Their as Lot of Item Groups are available in the Report Each Items Group have Maximum 10 Lines in the Report with Summary Contain in the Repeating Frame
My Requirement is During the Report Preview if the Report Not Fitted in the Page then Whole Item Group is Require to Skip to Next Page.
I have a graph inside a repeating frame, but every time a run the report, it doesn't bring me all de graph, generally skip the last one, for example i show one graph per location but never show me the last ones. What can i do? If I ask 4 location, it bring me 3, if I ask 5 it bring me 4.
I'm presently creating a Graph on a repeating frame.
I made a query with a group that pointing to the repeating frame.
The problem : I want to change dynamically the Y and X axis Title.
The graph accept user parameter inside the XML file. But how to make it dynamically based on SQL query?
I try with formula, but can't make it work with a group. I have to put the formula at Report Level, but to make it dynamically for each group i have to make it work at the group Level.
I would like to know how can i add a column in existing report. I try to change SQL by doing this it does add that new column into group but when i try to run report i can not see that changes . then i try to do some changes in paper layout but i am not able to bring the changes in out put. i am new to this FORMS Reports . do i have to create a group again i am how can i change the layout in that report.
My user would like to have a way to attach files to database records. For simplicity, we'll say that each employee in the database could have 0-many file attachments associated with them. I know how to make this part work using Oracle Forms.
So that's the easy part for me. The tough part is that they want to be able to run an Oracle Report on our application server (displays as a PDF, also downloadable as a PDF) and have links on this report to the attachments that they uploaded using the forms process above.
For the idea of storing the files on a folder somewhere, I simply created a text object on the report that had it's hyperlink property pointing to the file location. Done.. opens fine.
However, I want to be able to have the option of storing these files in the database instead, just in case we can't go with the shared folder idea. I'm not sure how to make this work. I can store a blob in the database.. but how do I link to that blob on the report for them to be able to download it? Is this even possible?
how to create a download link on the Oracle Report that let's them download a file out of the database.
I have a doubt; can we format a particular word in oracle reports at runtime..?
Ex:-
A text filed contains data Quote:We request #BANK# to finance the same Bill as per agreed interest rate and other terms and conditions agreed on the above addendum and immediately remit the proceeds to our account A/c no. #ACCOUNTNO#, held with your Bank.
We need to make #BANK#, #ACCOUNTNO# are bold at runtime, Is there any method to format characters at runtime..?
Currently some jobs created in WBT scripting need to converted into oracle,plsql.There is one job in WBT scripting, which will invoke the oracle reports inside and generate the PDF files in the destination path as follows:
a = runhide("c:Program FilesInternet Exploreriexplore.exe", "http://pscm9722:7778/reports/rwservlet?USERID=%LOGONINFO%+server=rep_pscm9722+destype=file+desname=D:ORACLE10G\%CCALLRptName%+desformat=PDF+PARAMFORM=no+report=PCCALL.RDF") a = runhide("c:Program FilesInternet Exploreriexplore.exe", "http://pscm9722:7778/reports/rwservlet?
[code]...
Now, i want to convert this into oracle,plsql? Is it possible or not?
I migrated a Oracle 6i Report to Oracle Report 9i so I'm trying to execute a this report in the Run Web Layout, but this doesn't bring me any information, how can i run this reports in the Web layout?
When i run this report en the Paper Layout it's bring me data. When a run the report just bring me a blank web page.
Any way to automate a job to execute several Oracle Reports to run at the end of every month and either email them to a list of people or possibly save them to a location on a network drive.
At first, I started out with 2 avenues of thought:
1) The following link raised the option of an Oracle Scheduler, but from my research, the scheduler only runs database jobs, shell scripts, batch files, etc.:
[URL]......
2) I was thinking about possibly creating a database job of some sort to call the reports, but from the following link, I've determined that one cannot create+call a stored/database procedure to run Oracle Report files. So there goes my second hope.
[URL].......
So, it appears that the scheduler won't meet my requirements and now I think I'm almost out of options.
My last resort is creating a database job that queries required information and spooling the data + various formatting "stuff" into a txt file. Then, that txt file would be my report. This seems a little savage and I would like to think that there's a ay to automatically run an .REP against a database and save an electronic copy of the report somewhere.
Is it possible to automate the execution of Oracle Reports and then saving the report in a particular format (xls/pdf/rtf/etc.)?
In my requirement i have to move a field from bottom to the first page of report. I try to drag the field but i think it's in multiple frame .i am very new to oracle how can i work with multiple frame in layout wizard.
I am unable to properly align two objects in the layout editor in Oracle Reports. The form report I am trying to design must be perfect and I need to highlight a particular report object (data item) by adding a narrow box (boilerplate) next to it on the left hand side, which is filled with a contrasting colour and contains an asterisk.
The problem is this: I cannot seem to align them properly (horizontal stack, align top). Even if I use the 'size objects' option to make them exactly the same vertical size, the align option stated above does the horizontal stack, but vertically they are not aligned - nor can I manoeuvrings the boilerplate box into place manually.
The environment of my company consist of an ERP system developed using Oracle Forms 4.5 and Reports 2.5. Now, due to increase in business activities, there is a lot of requests from users for reports in Excel sheet.
Our company is planning for Oracle ERP Rel 12....and it is under process of analysis..due to which there is no chance of upgrade to latest Developer Suite.
As of now, to fulfill user requirements of Excel based reports...what do you think is best and permanent solution? Is there any plug-in or Business Process or Business Intelligence application llike ORACLE BI Spreadsheet plug-in..which meets our demand.
As of now provide users with options to run the report and generate output in HTML format, from there, they copy it to Excel..but this process is not at all user friendly and feasible.
For a requirement, i need to call an Oracle Report from a PL/SQL Package or Procedure. Explain on how this can done. Mine is an Oracle Reports 6i version.
I have a report I am currently working on...see attached file. I have circled two symbols. I know the one on the left is "page break after" but I am not sure why this field would have this setting.
Tell me what the symbol on the right means? Also, I have confine and flex set to "off" on all fields and items, yet when I move one of the fields other fields start to move as well. I am supposed to swap the bill to and ship to address which should be simple but so far it's not.
I have .rdf files from mid 1990's ( I'm not sure what is the version, perhaps 2.5 ) and now I would like to modify them by Oracle Reports Builder 6i or 9i. If I try to open those files by Oracle Reports Builder 6i I get the following error message:
REP-0110: Unable to open file 'C:file.rdf' REP-1070: Error while opening or saving a document
So I made a conclusion that those .rdf files are too old for 6i. Do I need to convert, and especially how, those files? .rdf files where copied from Unix machine to Win XP machine where Oracle Report Builder is installed.
I have a table (medicine_frequency) which has the following items: ----------------- AGE DRUG_DESCRIPTION FREQ MORNING NOON EVENING BEFORE_BEDTIME OTHER ----------------- I have to prepare a report in such a way that in a field it has to display the values of morning/noon/evening(once if all three are there) like 'Take 1 tablet'
(1) how can i fill some value in a table column based on some existing column value automatically without user intervention. my actual problem is i have 'expiry date' column and 'status'. the 'status' column should get filled automatically based on the current system date. ex: if expiry date is '25-Apr-2011' and current date is '14-May-2011', then status should be filled as 'EXPIRED'
(2)hOw can i build 'select' query in a report (report 6i) so that it will show me list of items 'EXPIRED' or 'NOT EXPIRED' or both expired and not expired separately in a single report based on user choice. 'EXPIRED' & 'NOT EXPIRED' can be taken from the above question no. 1.
<Column name> value 1 value 2 value 3 . . . value n
Since the column is small it can fit in a page more then one time. I know how to make it print more then once: i switch the repeating frame to print down and across and i modify the frame that contains it so the horizontal elasticity is variable.
After these changes my report looks like this: <Column name> value 1-----------------------value n+1-----------------------value m+1 value 2-----------------------value n+2-----------------------value m+2 value 3-----------------------value n+3-----------------------... .------------------------------- . .------------------------------- . .------------------------------- . value n-----------------------value m
What i want is my report to look like this:
<Column name>-------<Column name>------------<Column name> value 1-----------------------value n+1-----------------------value m+1 value 2-----------------------value n+2-----------------------value m+2 value 3-----------------------value n+3-----------------------... .------------------------------- . .------------------------------- . .------------------------------- . value n-----------------------value m
display values in descending order( as got from fomula column). i put that field in above group and got properly. now i want to sum these values at the end of report. its going to some distinct values, while i want all values to be sum.
