Reports & Discoverer :: Report Headers And Sub Headers
Aug 15, 2011
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.
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.
I'm planning to do a single-sing-on in one of my applications. To get to my application, the user has to log in to a portal-application befor. From this application i receive 2 headers, to verify this person has authenticated successfully. But how can I read these 2 headers? It doesn't work with the UTL_HTTP package, because i don't do an active request on an url.
I want added one new column in the below report which will shows only the items purchased on Cash basis but when i am running the query the column not showing any data.
In a classic report, I'm using the Sum functionality and breaks by First Column to get subtotals and report total. I Repeat Headers on Break which works great for the subtotals but I would like for the report to display the column headers above the report total for easier reading. If the last grouping has a lot of data, the user needs to scroll up to read the column headers when looking at the Grand Total.
Is there a way to Repeat Headers prior to report total?
I had report A which drill down to report B. While drilling down to report B, The parameter form of report B should be displayed which accept parameter code and then open the report B. My parameter form is displayed but not accepting the input. i am using the hyperlink to display the second report. Is there any cgimap.bat file to be configured for the parameter report? If yes then how to configure this file?
Is there any way of stopping the report from executing in Before-Report Trigger.
Actually what i am doing is to see whether some records are present there in the table in Before-Report Trigger on which the report is going to print. Because I am doing some updates in After-Report trigger. I want to stop if there is no records present in the table in Before-Report Trigger so the report will not go forward to After-Trigger of the report.
how to stop and by using which statement.the other way so that if report has no data then After-Report Trigger should not fired.

The code works great for few reports and for few reports it gives an error saying Unable to run the reports in 10g, When i checked the job status it says Terminated with error: <br>REP-163: Invalid value for keyword DESTYPE. Valid options are FILE, PRINTER, MAIL, INTEROFFICE, or CACHE.
I have kept the DESTYPE as CACHE. It is failing at Run_Report_Object(ReportId, Pl_Id)

A drill-down report (B) is called from another drill-down report (A) which opens correctly, but when I close report (B) all reports including the master report are closed automatically.
I'm calling sub drill-down report (Report C) from a drill-down report (Report B) using buttons. Report opens correctly but when I tend to close the sub drill-down report (Report C), all reports in hierarchy including the main report (Report A) also close down after raising an exception "An un-handled win32 exception raised in RWRBE60.EXE [3300]"
Report Calling Sequence:- Main Report => Drill Down Report => Sub Drill Down Report
