Reports & Discoverer :: How To Return Values In A Text Or Boiler Plate
Feb 15, 2012
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 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..?
I having issue when i try to use CLOB as varchar2 is not enough in my case. I'm developing function column in oracle report. I'm using developer 6i. I get error function return must char?
How I can use CLOB in oracle report?
function CF_RnoFormula return Char is --v_release_num CLOB; v_release_num varchar2(32767); begin FOR rec IN [code]........
I have a report that runs fine if I run it from the developer whether to preview or to file. The users are running this report from an Oracle Forms app and have a drop down for the destination format. If they run it to PDF for example, the report runs fine. If they run it to TXT132, TXT180, or TXT they get a "REP-1219 'FIELD_NAME' has no size -- length or width is zero".
Of course I am unable to get into the test application right now and as I mentioned above, I am unable to duplicate the error when I run the report from the developer. I am not sure why I would get a REP-1219 only when running to a Text file.
I'm working on a report (written with Oracle report builder 6i) for the SMS system.I want the the report results (list of mobile numbers) to be outputted directly into a text file.I have accomplished that with the following parameters:
DESTYPE = File DESNAME = C:file_name MODE = character
this work well for the first time but in the subsequent runs, the report rewrite the same file deleting the result from the run before.can I manage to have each run result written in separate file with the name formatted in specific way like (sms_parametervalue_date) or something. or at least is it possible to change the system parameter DESNAME via user parameter at runtime, so I can input the new file name into the parameter form.
I know how to append fields to text, but how do I deal with the variable length? I want to place text on a report and inside the text I have data from two different fields. It works great except that my fields are 35 characters long. If the data fills the entire field it looks great, if the data is only 10 characters long, I have a huge gap between the end of the data and the text that follows. How do I fix this?
How to create text file of report in 10g ? In reports 6i having default option in menu bar(mail). When clicking the mail option in reorts 6i it will attached to the outlook and we can sent. but in reports 10g not having that Option . It is possible in reports 10g?
I have a text field on my layout with 3 lines of text and plenty of space before the end of the text box. When I run the report the second line is shortened and the last two words are moved to the third line. Because I have a carriage return behind those two words, this then moves the original third line to the fourth line. Why does Oracle Reports do this when there is plenty of room and it looks fine in the layout?
I have one report requirement like below diagrams, My report having one repeating frame and one dynamic LOGO field. My repeating frame have 2 field say item_no, and item_name. This repeating frame will grow based on the items say min 1 to max 8 items.
My dynamic logo has some min and max movement position, Say in the below diagram my dynamic logo min movement position is line no 6 and max movement position is 9.
Suppose i have only 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 items then LOGO should fit in the line no 6, if i have 6 items then logo should come in the 7th line, if i have 7 items then logo should come in the 8th line ect.,like that max 8 item will come in the report, if items are 8 then logo should fit in the 9th line number. ---------------- 1|*****ITEM1****| 2|**************| 3|**************| 4|**************| 5|**************| 6|*****LOGO*****|-- MIN LOGO POSITION 7|**************| [code]......
I have a Report With Group G_Emp, having Columns Eno, Ename etc. in a Repeating frame R_1 and I have put A frame below this repeating frame R_1 with a Text Item Just for Displaying Comments, so just i want to display this Text Item in the second page and the Employee details in the first page, the restriction is that the Text item should not print in the first page.
I have developed one rdf in Text Output Format.In this some special characters is coming for Text Output format of rdf.Shall i do any adjustments in layout? How to remove these special characters?
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.
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
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 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]....
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 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.
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.
