Reports & Discoverer :: Get Unique Values With Formula Column
Jul 5, 2013
I am facing a problem in leave_form report! want to show employee's previous leaves detail (leavedate,leavetype), i don't want to show leavetype 'PPP' repeating frame type is Across/Down, there are 22 records of leavetype 'PPP' and one record of leavetype 'CL'
problem is report is showing 22 records of leavetype 'CL' of same leavedate!
i want that report should show the actual leavedate and leavetype records.using 9i database 6i developer server2003
For leavetype
FUNCTION Cf_1formula
RETURN CHAR
IS
v_leavetype CHAR(40);
BEGIN
SELECT LT.description
INTO v_leavetype
FROM hrm_attendance L,
hrm_leavetype LT,
hrm_employees E
[code]....
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.
I have wrote this code behind a formula column which take the image from a server. The name of the image and location is carried out from database. When ever there is new record new name of the image is posted in this formula column. But when the file is not present in the location it gives error. When the error occur i cant able to view the report. The error says 'You cant run the report without layout'. When all images are present in the directory then report runs fine.
function CF_QID_IMAGE return Char is l_file_exists BOOLEAN; l_file_len NUMBER; l_blocksize BINARY_INTEGER; image_link varchar2(50); [code]...
I am working on a report which shows a summarized data from 4 different tables. I have 2 columns which shows certain amount.
The data in both the columns comes from different table.
I want to compare these 2 columns for which i placed a formula column in data model. the code goes this way:
function CF_RECV_PAYFormula return Character is V_RESULT VARCHAR2(50); begin IF :TOTAL_IOU_AMT >= :EXP_AMT THEN
[code].....
The compilation is successful. but when i am running the report i am getting an error Rep-1517 :Column 'CF_RECV_PAY' references column TOTAL_IOU_AMT and EXP_AMT has incompatible frequency.
I'm using a tabular kind of report. I've made about 4 formula (function)columns in my report. I want to make a calculation columns which will get parameters from values returned by these functions.
i makes formula on the column in oracle forms such as
column it's name column1 and this column return value from another column column2 and used the calculation mode = formula formula = (:column1 + :column2) the formula will be (:column1 + :column2)
and this formula will appear in column3 how can show column3 in oracle report ?
I currently use this to compare 2 numbers that are different. I specify a 2% tolerance (p_tolerance = 2) so the difference between the numbers can be within 2%
FUNCTION reconcile_with_tolerance(p_portfolio_amount IN NUMBER, p_settlement_amount IN NUMBER, p_tolerance IN NUMBER ) RETURN INTEGER IS l_difference NUMBER; l_percent_increase NUMBER;
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.
(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.
I have a reference number of application number which is sent to 3 different address as outward number . for example application number is intimated to the office , the employee and the treasury. this number is generated as follows
P/11/10/133 P/11/10/133A P/11/10/133B
in my outward report when i run it all three numbers are getting listed.
i want only P/11/10/133 to be listed and ignore the rest of the two. i tried to use SUBSTR(INOUT_NO,9), but it reads only from the left gives me only the number ie 133, 133A and 133B. i tried rtrim and ltrim but it only clears the extra space. how do i ignore the other two dispatch numbers.
<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
I have a report in report 6 which has static field where values are shown for previous year and for current year. the output of the report will be like this
sl no department prev year cur year 01 revenue 2000 5000 02 costing 500 1000 03 excise 8000 900 and so on....
I have a created a fomula field for each and every department and get the value from a particular table. What i require is if suppose the department revenue does not have any value then that row should not be visible. for eg if revenue has a null value then the report should be like this
sl no department prev year cur year 01 costing 500 1000 02 excise 8000 900
I have a problem with Between clause used in where statement to compare two string variable.
Query is like this,
select item_code, item_deacrption from itm_master, invoce_det where im_code = item_code AND invd_item_number BETWEEN (:startNum) AND (:endNum)
Here invd_item_number is a DB field and is of type varchar2(41), and (:startNum),(:endNum) are of same type.
now invd_item_number has one value '001003002001' if we give :startNum = '001003001002' and :endNum = '001003004006'
:startNum and :endNum is composed of separate field values (ie, 1st 3 character shows color code, next 3 for catagory, next 3 for size etc). These codes are entered separately and are combined at run time.
it is still fetching the invd_item_number with value '001003002001'. (the last set of character(type code) in the :startNum is greater than invd_item_number's type code value. But it is smaller than the previous code (size code), that's why it is fetching).
But how can i get around this as i don't need that value to be fetched.
I have a report, where there are opening balance and closing balance, so i have to store the closing balance values in a separate table during runtime and should show this closing value as opening balance for next month.
I create the sample for master/detail form. In detail for prdcode,rate,qty,amount is there. When select prdcode it fetching prdcode,rate in a record and if you type the qty the amout will come based on formula(property) :qty*:rate.
It is available on screen. But when i store the data, in backend table the amount is be a null.
I am trying to select multiple values from a parameter form based on a select statement.
I created the parameter and write the select statement under list-of-value property However what I want is to let users choose multiple values from the select statement not only one value.
Well i like to display the Values in Boiler Plate/Text. For Example, i have Report with Address Columns. for Tin No: i have Hard coded as TIN: 34XXXXXX01 and i like to change this hard coded item as TIN: 34XXXXXX02 so during Runtime if the input is changed the above item to be changed.
I studied a document about lexical parameter in that it says "Lexical parameters are used to substitute multiple values at run time and are identified by a preceding '&'. Lexical s can consist of as little a one line where clause to an entire select statement"
Select * from emp, deptno &where.
and i know about substitution variables using & is this are same (lexical and substitution) or different.
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.
