Integer Data Type not displayed correctly in Interactive Report

Hi,
When creating a report using BI Publisher 11.1.1.6.2 it appears that any of my fields that contain Integer values (regardless of the order in which the field is displayed) do not correctly display - instead they are displayed as NULLs with the occasional value in a field.
This is only apparent when displaying the report using the Interactive viewer - when selecting another method (i.e. HTML, Excel etc) they appear correctly.
Has anyone come across this before?
Thanks

Hi Craig
Did you find a solution for this issue? we have same exact issue. Please let me know
Thanks

in the except it displays to 02/06/02.
It seem all the date field can not be control in the report, and control by somthing else
Doese anyone come accross this problem?
Thanks

Hi Rong,
Are you using the following demonstration to build your JSP?
http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/demonstrations/index.html
(Output to Excel with Oracle9i Report)
I tried to do the same, and inserted a database date field in the JSP using Reports. I found the following:
While making the template inside Excel, if I make sure that the format of the date cells is "Date" - some particular date format, the date field values from Reports does not get exported correctly.
However, if you make sure that inside the template, the format of the date cells is not date, but "General", then the date field values are correctly exported to Excel.
Pl try it and let us know.

ME2L : still to be delivered is not displayed correctly in ALV report

Dear All,
The still to be delivered and still to be invoiced quantity is not being displayed correctly in ME2L report. In BEST format the report displayes the correct values. In the ALV form the quantity is same as the ordered quantity.
can anyone he

If the selection is the same for BEST layout and ALV layout then the results should equal.
if a field in ALV display has a different value than in the old list display, then it pretty much looks like a bug, and bugs can only be erased by program changes from SAP via OSS notes.
Check SAPNet for notes, open a message yourself to SAP if you dont find any.

Query on Multiprovider - Data is not displayed correctly

Hi,
I have two cubes in a multiprovider.
1st has following Characteristics :
1. Service Order
2. Product line code
3. Cost Center
4. Fiscal Period
5. Fiscal Year
6. Actuals - Key Figure
2nd cube has
1. Product Line code
2. Cost Center
3. Budget type
4. Fiscal Year
5. Fiscal period
6. Budget Amount - Key figure
I have a query to display: Service Order, Product line, cost center, fiscal period, actuals and budget amount.
When I execute I get 2 rows:
1 st row displaying - Actual values with all the data
2nd row displaying Product line and Budget with all other fields containing '#' sign or "not assigned" .
I will appreciate if you can tell me what mistake I am doing. I have checked the multiprovider 'Identification' - all the fields are selected.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Jitendra

Hi Jitendra,
This is because you have got service order charcterstic in 1st cube only and does not exist in 2nd cube. when you try to display Service order, you will get two records. If you remove service order from display of query, you will be able to see one record as charcterstics are common in both cube.
If you want to display service order and wud like to resolve this issue, try the following:
Restrict Budget amount with characterstic service order and right click it and select Constant. Then execute the query.
Cheers

Cache settings in BI7. Data still not displayed correctly in RSRT

Good day
Please assist? I did scan SDN for a similar problem and did check the CACHE settings in RSRT etc.
My problem is: If I check the data in the DSO, then the updated information that was loaded yesterday is displayed. When I run the query, it does not display the last loaded information. I have run the query in RSRT and the updated information does not display either. I have changed the cache properties of this query to different settings already, and running the query from RSRT, with no success.
I also checked the query itself (design) It is not restricted to anything. User selects 0CALMONTH as variable only. I have logged out and in again after each Cache setting, no success of displaying the updated DSO information.
Can anyone please tell me why the query does not pick up the latest information from the DSO?
Thanks in advance.
Cj

Hi Cj,
Is the last request marked as Ready for Reporting? This needs to be the case before the latest data comes up in the query.
Hope this helps!

Type not displaying correctly when publishing

I have a Flash MX file which I created a couple of years ago.
I edited it (in MX) and when I published the .swf, the type only
displayed every other letter or so. Any one know what the problem
is and how to fix it. The type face was Avante Garde Italic, if
that matters.

Ignore. Have found out it was down to paths. Sorted

Farsi letters not displayed correctly in BiRT reports

Hello,
we have a problem displaying Farsi letters in BiRT reports.
The version of BiRT we use is 2.5.2.
I have already looked for solutions on the internet and found following BiRT bug reports which describe same problems as i encountered:
- https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=155551
- https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=276597
- https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=343943
Also there was a bug report for IBM ICU mentioned in one of the above links.
So i thought maybe i should update IBM ICU in the BiRT report engine to the latest version. But unfortunately without success.
I also tried using fonts like "Nazanin" and "B-Zar", also without success (using encoding "Identity-H").
The problem is still when one of the following letters are present in the text: ی گ ک پ چ
It causes the words to be split in half, instead of continuing in a full word.
Did anybody experienced similar problems and found a solution?
Best Regards,
Dušan

Is there any possibility of upgrading?
2.5.2 is over 5 years old now and there are many improvements and bug fixes for language support in newer versions.

Date not displaying correctly

Hi,
we have an issue where date is not displaying correctly in report. it shows 1/1/1990. even in universe it shows the same value 1/1/1990. but if i run query at DB level it shows the correct date. Reporting Database is Sybase.
we are on Bi 4.0 SP 6.
Any Ideas.
Thanks,
Yogesh.

HI Farzana,
Finally,i have narrowed down the issue. So here it is,Initially we were seeing date as 1/1/1900 in webi rich, IDT and BI LaunchPad. so than we have made changes to sybase. prm file in following location
........\dataAccess\connectionServer\sybase\extensions\legacy
in prm file the input date parameter is as below
<Parameter Name="USER_INPUT_DATE_FORMAT">'mm/dd/yyyy hh:m:s am/pm'</Parameter>
we changed it to
<Parameter Name="USER_INPUT_DATE_FORMAT">'mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss A'</Parameter>
and than we see correct date in IDT and Webi rich but not in BI LaunchPad. the connection we were using in universe is ODBC. so i have created a new connection using sybase CTL client and now i see correct dates in BI LaunchPad also. So i am not sure if i need to make changes to prm file in /dataAccess\connectionServer\odbc\extensions location for the report to show correct values using ODBC.
Any Idea.
Thanks,
Kumar.

Numeric data is not displayed in BI Publisher 11g report

Hi,
I'm using Oracle BI 11g (11.1.1.6.0).
I'm experiencing a serious issue with numeric data in reports created with Publisher.
When I define the query in the data model, numeric data gets declared as "integer" (even if it should be "double"). Anyway, when creating the layout all data is correctly shown.
The issue emerges when I run the report in interactive mode: numeric data is not displayed at all.
If I run it in HTML mode or other, I get proper results.
I tried to explicitly CAST numeric data in the query to number(21, 6) but I get no different result.
Any help or suggestion is warmly welcome.
Thanks,
Cristina

Yes, assuming that you are using the Standalone version, following are some excerpt from user guide.
10g see Oracle® Business Intelligence Publisher
Report Designer's Guide
Release 10.1.3.4
Part No. E12187-01
Chapter 6 Building a Data Template
Supported Column Types
CLOB (conditionally supported)
The CLOB must contain text or XML. Data cannot be escaped inside the CLOB column.
And for 11g see
Oracle® Fusion Middleware
Data Modeling Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher
Release 11g (11.1.1)
Part No. E18862-01
Chapter 3 Creating Data Sets
Using Data Stored as a Character Large Object (CLOB) in a Data Model
BI Publisher supports using data stored as a character large object (CLOB) data type in
your data models. This feature enables you to use XML data generated by a separate
process and stored in your database as input to a BI Publisher data model.
Use the Query Builder to retrieve the column in your SQL query, then use the data
model editor to specify how you want the data structured. When the data model is
executed, the data engine can structure the data either as:
• a plain character set within an XML tag name that can be displayed in a report (for
example, an Item Description)
• structured XML

German Special Characters not displayed correctly in RTF using code

Hi ,
In my code we are using webdynpro method
WDResourceFactory.createResource(
byte[] data, String resourceName,WDWebResourceType
Type)
Here in our code we are implementing this as
ITemplateElement templateEl = wdContext.currentTemplateElement();
WDResourceFactory.createResource(
templateEl.getReportData(),
reportName.substring(0, reportName.lastIndexOf('.')),
WDWebResourceType.RTF); reportName.lastIndexOf('.')),
Here templateEl.getReportData() returns a set of bytes which has some
german special characters.
We are generating the Bytes using String.getByes(),Just before
String text = new String(in);
collector.putBusinessObject(boName, bo);
reportDocTemplateParser(collector, text);
collector.removeBusinessObject(boName);
String generatedText = collector.generateRTF();
out = (null != generatedText) ? generatedText.getBytes() : null;
The out put is the if i am giving a word with german special characters for eg:
Betriebsübersichten it first gets converted to bytes and then passes through method WDResouseFactory.createResourse(.....) which creates an RTF file and finally in the RTF file it appears as Betriebsbbersichten the special character is not displayed correctly.
i came to knw that while converting into bytes we have to make it RTF supported encoding.ie for eg generatedText.getBytes('cp1252').i even tried with other charactersets like ISO-8859,cp1253 and so on but none of them worked.
It would be really great if you could suggest the needful.
Thanks and Regards
Neeta

I soved this by using get_data function of response object. Then converting this into ISO-8859-1 charset.
See code below.
DATA : lv_encoding   TYPE abap_encoding,
          lv_conv       TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_in_ce,
          lv_x_string   type xstring.
lv_x_string = pv_http_client->response->get_data( ).
    lv_encoding = '1100'.
    lv_conv = cl_abap_conv_in_ce=>create(
                          encoding = lv_encoding
                             input = lv_x_string ).
    lv_conv->read( IMPORTING data = pv_result ).

Entity Descriptions are not displayed correctly in Combo box dropdown list

In Web Analysis, Entity Descriptions are not displayed correctly in Combo box dropdown list when entity descriptions from HFM contains a dot(.)
Example:
'Entity A. LTD' becomes 'LTD'
'Entity B Inc.' becomes blank
It seems that everything before the dot is not displayed when opening the combobox.
It looks like it is acting like the option to show short description for entities in HR where the parent-child relation is not shown. This behaviour I don't expect for descriptions. And in my opinion is not an option in Web Analysis.
Does anybody knows the sollution or have seen this issue before?

Hi,
This is a known issue with combo box list of values.
Please follow this workaround:
- Remove ComboboxLOV on Deptno
- Create an updateable transient attribute(Say Dname) of type String
- Define combobox lov with following values:
List Data Source: DeptView1
List Attribute: Dname
List Return Values:
Dname - Dname
Deptno - Deptno
UI Hints: Display Attribute - Dname
- Edit Dname(transient attribute) and provide following groovy expression
oracle.jbo.Key key = new oracle.jbo.Key(Deptno);
return DeptView1.findByKey(key, 1)[0].getAttribute("Dname");- Now, you are done and observe that Dname combo box lov shows Description even on selection and change in this combo box sets the Deptno value

Abstract classes and methods with dollar.decimal not displaying correctly

Hi, I'm working on a homework assignment and need a little help. I have two classes, 1 abstract class, 1 extends class and 1 program file. When I run the program file, it executes properly, but the stored values are not displaying correctly. I'm trying to get them to display in the dollar format, but it's leaving off the last 0. Can someone please offer some assistance. Here's what I did.
File 1
public abstract class Customer//Using the abstract class for the customer info
private String name;//customer name

    acctNo = acct;
    branchNumber = b;
//toString method

String str;
    str = "Name: " + name + "\nAccount Number: " + acctNo + "\nBranch Number: " + branchNumber;
    return str;

    public void setMonthlyDeposit(double deposit)
        monthlyDeposit = deposit;
    //The setCompanyMatch accepts the value for the monthly company match amount

        monthlyInt = interest;
    //toString method
    public String toString()
        String str;
        str = super.toString() +
        "\nAccount Type: Hybrid Retirement" +
        "\nDeposits: $" + monthlyDeposit +

        acctTrans.setMonthlyInterest(5);
        DecimalFormat dollar = new DecimalFormat("#,##0.00");
        //This will display the customer's data
        System.out.println(acctTrans);
        //This will display the current balance times 2 since the current
        //month is February.
        System.out.println("Your current balance is $"
                + dollar.format(acctTrans.getCurrentBalance()));
    }
