Dynamic Sources for a field in Oracle Reports

Hi there,
I am sure someone might have encountered this problem.
I have six Queries in Data Model. Based on certain parameter value, I need to change the source field setting for each field in the report
output.
e.g in Report LayOut Model, I have a field F_1. The source for this field in
the Property pallette is COL1 which is coming from Query1.
I need to assign a new source based on parameter value for field F_1 to
COL2 from Query2 or COL3 from Query3 or COL4 from Query4, COL5 from Query5, COL6 from Query6 in the Before Report Trigger. Is there any way to achieve this using srw or any other PL/SQL code?
This way I can save a lot of devlopment time and use a single physical layout for six different reports and avoid the hassles of creating frames,
repeating frame and formatting.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Let me know if something is not clear in the email. I will provide
additional information

Ashok,
Looks like you've landed in the wrong Forum - this one is for Oracle HTML DB.
Thanks,

Text data source for the field Position(PLANS)

Hi Experts,
I have an infoobject ZPOSITION which i am using in a cube for this i can able to display key values but i want to display text for this ZPOSITION. The source for this field is Position(PLANS) which i have tacken from pa0001 table.
I have an another infoobject 0HRPOSITION for this i have already loaded data using data source 0HRPOSITION_TEXT.
Is there any other text datasources for this field Position(PLANS)?
And
Is it possible to load data from one info object to another info object?
Regards,
Sridhar.K

Hi Sridhar,
Check out in the infotype PA0001 for the check table for this field. In this table you will have the description for the field PLANS (Position).
I request you to catch hold of functional HR team member to know where the text value for the Position (PLANS) is stored. You can get the info from them immeadiatly.
After knowing the table where the text values for Position (PLANS) are stored, you have to create a text datasource using RSO2 transaction and replicate in BW and load data from the R/3 table.
Hope this helps you.

Saravanan.

Set value for textarea field in tabular report

Hi all,
I need some help setting textarea values in a tabular report. The tabular report is for users to be able to build their own ad hoc report, by specifying which columns should be included and filtered. Here are the example tables:
-- Table that holds all of the data for the report.
create table vehicle (
make varchar2(50),
model varchar2(50),
type varchar2(50),
year number);
insert into vehicle values ('Toyota','Camry','Sedan','2008');
insert into vehicle values ('Toyota','4Runner','SUV','2008');
insert into vehicle values ('Honda','Civic','Compact','2011');
insert into vehicle values ('Honda','Accord','Sedan','2010');
insert into vehicle values ('Ford','F150','Truck','2011');
-- Table that holds the columns that are available to be filtered in report.
create table vehicle_cols (
col_id varchar2(50),
col_label varchar2(50));
insert into vehicle_cols values ('make','Vehicle Make');
insert into vehicle_cols values ('model','Vehicle Model');
insert into vehicle_cols values ('type','Vehicle Type');
insert into vehicle_cols values ('year','Vehicle Year');
-- Table that holds filters saved by user.
create table vehicle_user_saved (
saved_rpt_name varchar2(50),
col_id varchar2(50),
col_value varchar2(50));
insert into vehicle_user_saved values ('Saved Report One','make','Toyota');
insert into vehicle_user_saved values ('Saved Report One','make','Honda');
insert into vehicle_user_saved values ('Saved Report One','model','Sedan');
insert into vehicle_user_saved values ('Saved Report Two','make','Honda');
insert into vehicle_user_saved values ('Saved Report Two','year',2010);And below is the source query for the region. The textarea value is initially set to null.
-- Region Source for specifying query parameters.
select
col_label,
apex_item.checkbox(1,'#ROWNUM#','CHECKED') as include_cols,
apex_item.hidden(2,col_id)
|| apex_item.textarea(3,null,2,100) as filter_cols
from
vehicle_cols;When a user clicks the button to load the parameters for a report they have previously saved, I'd like to change the values in the textarea field from null to the saved values from the vehicle_user_saved table so the user can see the parameters and run the report, or modify the parameters if necessary.
I thought I could run a PL/SQL process (After Footer) when the button is clicked to populate these textarea fields, but the test below doesn't do anything:
begin
apex_application.g_f03(1) := 'Hello';
end;For example, when a user selects to load "Saved Report One," the following parameters should be loaded into the textarea fields:
Column >> Filtered Columns
Vehicle Make >> Honda, Toyota
Vehicle Model >> Sedan
Vehicle Year >> Null
Vehicle Type >> NullCan someone help me out? I wouldn't think I need Ajax for this since it's ok to be processed after the button click. But if I do need to use Ajax, I definitely could use some help with it, as I've never used Ajax before. I've setup this example in my hosted account to help.

APEX 4.1, Oracle 11g

Hi, thanks for your response.
I'm not adding any new rows, I'm just trying to change the values of the textarea fields in the tabular report when the user chooses to load his/her saved parameters. The default for the textarea field in all rows is null, because I assume users will want to start building the report from scratch. However, when the user clicks the button to load his/her saved values, I want to overwrite the null values with new values. How can I do that?
Thanks,

Editable fields in oracle report

Hi,
I am hoping someone can help what I am trying to create is a PDF oracle report with an editable field at the end of the report. The user would use this field to type comments about the report and then save the file with the comments attached.
I did a search but couldn't really find anything relevant apart from this thread here: Re: How to add to report in pdf format editable fields but it looks like that was never answered.
Users have access to Adobe Acrobat so an alternative solution could be just to create a rectangle and tell the users to write in that but it is not an ideal solution.
If it is not possible in oracle reports we are also licensed for BI Publisher but as of yet I haven't been able to find anything that would do this using that tool either.
Regards,
Chad

with an editable field at the end of the report.In Reports the user cannot add text after generation of the report. So, do it before generating the report. Add a parameter p_comment to the data model and add this to the parameter form (or whatever form you use to call the report, e.g. from Forms) and create a text field at the end of the report.

Using one prompt for multiple fields in a report

We are using Oracle CRM on Demand, Release 16.
I have a report I am building that involves four different date fields. I'd like to give the user the ability to enter a date range for the date fields via a Prompt when the report executes. But the date range would be the same for all four date fields. Is there a way to capture the date range in one prompt, but use that same range in all four date fields in the report?

I recommend to use two dashboard prompts, one for each date field of your range and each will set a presentation variable.
Then use the FILTER metric function and reference the presentation variable.
Best Regards,
Christian

How to populate the data for additional fields in custom report of fbl5n tr

hallo friends,
i ha ve to add some fields to the output of custome report of transaction FBL5N.
Till now i have only added the fields to the output.
Now i have to write the code to populate the data for those fields in the program.
1.     Customer Credit Group(ACM/RCM): (Table: KNKK; Field Name: VKORG )
2.     Credit Representative Group: (Table: KNKK; Field Name: SBGRP)
3.     Customer Account Number(CAN#): (Table: KNKK; Field Name: KNKLI)
4.     Alternative Payer(ALTP#) : (Table: KNA1; Field Name: KUNNR)
5.     Risk Category: (Table: KNKK; Field Name: CTLPC)
6.     Credit Info Number: (Table: KNKK; Field Name: KRAUS)
7.     Rating: (Table: KNKK; Field Name: DBRTG)
8.     Payment Index: (Table: KNKK; Field Name: DBPAY)
9.     Credit control area: (Table: KNKK; Field Name: KKBER)
10.     Company code: (Table: KNB1; Field Name: BUKRS)
11.     Sales Organization: (Table: KNVV; Field Name: VKORG)
These are al fields i have to populate in the program..
MY ATTEMPTS:
I tried getting the data for KNKK table by GET KNKK ,but it is giving some garbage values...
And Logical database used here is DDF,and i have to add the VKORG of KNVV too...but KNVV is not there in DDF...
Can anybody tell me how should i proceed..
thanks in advance.

Thnx Andreas,
i have following doubts again..
I have to add sales organisation field to the selection screen...(this is given in the req.)
now if i will say GET KNKK...it would not keep account of this 'sales organisation' field...so how should i fetch the data with these input data( i.e. 'compny code' and 'customer' are the fields given by LDB and 'sales oraganisation' is the field i put it on the selection screen)
And what about the KNVV-VKORG ,because the KNVV is not present in the LDB.

I have a report in R3 for HR. In the report i am getting fields like leaving date,reason for leaving .
When I clicked F1 on the leaving date and reason i came to know the field name as FIREDATE and MGTXT...
I checked in DD03L table with these field name and found no related tables for that.....

In order to create a generic datasource with these fields included then how data will get for these fields....
But i find no relevant tables regarding these fields.....in the report of r3 when checked f1
Text
Leaving date
Definition
Date, on which an employee leaves the company.
Dependencies
The following infotypes are taken into account when the value is created:
P0000 - Actions
P0001 - Organizational Assignment
But the above P0000 ,P0001 are structures .... how can the leave date get populated in the generic datasource.which i may have to create ?

The easiest way to accomplish that would be to add some logic in a custom controller (i.e some java code). Which is a little more complex than regular personalizations.

Certificate for Solaris 10 on Oracle reports services

Hi All,
We are changing our OS from HP UX to solaris 10. In the fusion middleware certificate, it has been mentioned as the Solaris 10 update 4+ OS does not support Oracle Forms builder and Reports builder
Can some one help me to confirm if really the Oracle report services 11g is not supported by Solaris 10? if not, can u please give me some other reference (apart from fusion m/w certificate) where I could confirm that this is not supported. As well as can we maintain the Oracle 10g report services in Solaris 10 if the DB is 11g.
Thanks,

Extend dynamic selection for a field added on PRPS table

Hi Gurus,
I want to see the field that I've added in PRPS table as part of dynamic selection on the reports like S_ALR_87013542/ S_ALR_87013532. The LDB for project systems is PSJ. How do I make it appear as a dynamic selection on the selection-screen criteria for these reports?
Thanks...

Hi,
We have done this a lot on my project. Follow these steps:
(1) Transaction SE36 for logical database PSJ
(2) Choose menu path Extras -> Selection views (Ctrl+F7)
(3) Change the "Origin of view" to SAP
(4) Find the PRPS_R node in the top, right "Tables/nodes" view.
(5) Double-click PRPS_R.
(6) Find your custom field that you added in PRPS (in the bottom "Table fields/node fields" view.
(7) Choose and enter a 2-character Function Group ID (see the top, left view) next to the new field.
(8) Save and transport...

James Gaddis
