Not able to edit user defined reports

Hi,
I've run into an issue recently with user defined reports. After some time, I'm not able to edit them. This only happens on some of them. Is there a way to work around this?
Thanks.

Hi,
The platform is Windows XP Pro (32 bit) sp3, sql developer 1.5.5 (although I've seen this happen on earlier versions as well). After some time, some reports become un-editable. If I right click on the report and click edit, nothing happens. I've also tried exporting and re-importing the reports, but that doesn't seem to help.
Also, I open it up via sqldeveloper.exe, but no console window come up.

  • Problem Editing User Defined Report - 1.1.0.22.71

    When I rt click on an existing user-defined report on the Reports tab and select edit, change the default value on a bind variable and click Apply, I get message "Name already used please enter new one" message and changes will not save. Am I missing something here or is this a bug?

    I expected that if I basically did a "save as" the issue could be avoided. But I wanted to be sure that if I'm maintinanig a set of shared reports I can edit an existing report without having to jump through a hoop or two. Is this issue being addressed?
    Thanks

  • SSRS 2012 some users are not able to edit reports in the server

    Hello All,
    I am install reporting services SharePoint native mode but some users are not able to edit reports on server error is "Application cannot be started contact your application vendor" but this users edit reports on their client machine
    using report builder 3.0.
    Please help me

    Hi harshad_mule,
    Because Report Builder in the Report Manager is a ClickOnce application, the error message means that one or more of the files listed in the application manifest cannot be found on the server, so the application cannot be started. Based on my research, frequently
    this means that the application is somehow corrupted, or that the ClickOnce store is corrupted.
    To fix this issue, we can try to refer to the following steps:
    If Report Builder is corrupted, we can update the Reporting Services to repair this.
    Check that the Report Builder application is existing
        Open the Report Server folder. By default, the folder is located in: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.<X>\Reporting Services\ReportServer\ReportBuilder
        Make sure the file "ReportBuilder.application" is existing in the folder mentioned above.
    If it is existing, please use the following URL to access the Report Builder directly:
    http://<server>/ReportServer/ReportBuilder/ReportBuilder.application
    And this issue can also be caused by browser. Because not all report functionality is supported by all browsers in Reporting Services. So please use IE browser to start Report Builder to try it again.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • Not able to edit the report created on different data source.....

    I have a query regarding Report in OBIEE - reports developed from BI Publisher are specific to data source on which they have been created ??
    i have a sample report that was created on different data source, i have the corresponding RPD also. I changed the data source according to my DB and when i try to update/edit the report,
    on Analytics for adding a new column, it is generating a seperate new Query from QueryBuilder for that additional cloumn rather than adding up the new query with the previous one(existing report query). Is it because of mismatch of data source on which report had been created and on which it is being update ?? if it is the case, where do i need to make changes related to JDBC connection or others ??
    when i try to create a new sample data set and try to update it, it adds up the extra edited things to original query and works perfectly fine. can ny 1 help me for the same ??

  • SQL field (not large enough) - Create Report Dialog - User Defined Reports

    When creating a user defined report it would be good to have the sql field the query is entered into bigger. The tiny size is awkward for large queries.

    When you increase the window size, we increase horizontally but not vertically. I will log an enhancement request to see if we can get it longer.

  • Users are not able to edit projects even with right permissions

    Hello,
    We have a weird issue. Your help or inputs is appreciated.
    A user is not able to edit projects in SAP PPM 50 unless 1)the project is created by the user and 2)user has access to ACO_SUPER auth object. For the projects, the user is trying to edit, we made sure user has write ACL access in the administration tab of the project.
    Obviously, we can't give all users ACO_SUPER access. Please advise how to proceed.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Pranith,
    You are right..ACO_SUPER is not recommended for all users, it's an super user access.
    In PPM-Project management, there are two authorizations
    1) General Authorizations
    2) Project Specific authorizations
    General authorizations:
    This is provided to user using a backend PFCG roles like 'SAP_CPR_USER' which contains business partner view access and other similar roles are assigned for project creation, template creation etc.,
    Project Specific authorizations:
    This authorizations are provided using ACL 'Authorizations' tab within the project and here you have different authorisation activities like admin, write, read & none.
    As you said, the user who creates the project will get 'Admin' authorization and after that if you want give access to other users, then you need to add manually users in the project definition-authorisation tab or you can provide default authorization through project role type.
    Have you added the users manually in authorisation tab?
    Regards,
    Ravi

    What are the tricks?
    It has to be some what supported since I found this somewhere in an Oracle note...
    How to create custom reports on tables other than mgmt* views.
    To create reports on other tables, grant permissions to MGMT_VIEW user as MGMT_VIEW is responsible for creating reports in grid control
    SQL> GRANT SELECT on SYSMAN.<table_name> to MGMT_VIEW;
    And then create the reports in the reporting framework referencing SYSMAN.<table_name> in the query.

  • How to "print" a user-defined report to PDF?

    Hello, I am using sqldeveloper 3.1 and I've got a user-defined report (chart) working. I see one can adjust a bunch of PDF settings in the report properties, but I cannot find how to actually produce a PDF version of my report/chart...

    You can watch the movie here, but simple answer, right-mouse in the grid, Export > PDF
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7hNn2jowhQ
    The charts are not supported yet in the PDF reporting feature.
    Edit the report definition in the PDF section to control the properties of the PDF generated.

  • 2.1.1 Problem with User Defined Reports with actions on the context menu

    I use the User Defined Reports quite a lot, and export and publish these to other members of the team as Shared Reports. I'm also quite disappointed that there seems to be no further development in this area of SQL Developer.
    One of the totally undocumented features of User Defined Reports is the ability to attach actions to a context menu, and pass data from the grid to a procedure, for example. Copying, then exporting the sessions report (from All Reports -> Data Dictionary Reports -> Database Administration -> Sessions) exposes the XML for adding actions to the context menu. The snippet for killing a session looks like this:
    <item  reload="true"  reloadparent="false" removeFromParent="false">
      <title>Kill Session</title>
      <prompt type="confirm" >     
        <label>Kill Session?</label>     
        <default><![CDATA[]]></default>     
        <value><![CDATA[]]></value>        
      </prompt>
      <sql><![CDATA[ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION '#SID#, #SERIAL#' IMMEDIATE]]></sql>
      <help>Kill the selected session.</help>
    </item>So to add this type of functionality to your own user defined reports, you need to export the report, edit the XML, and import it again. It seems to work fine to add this to the master reports, but if you add an <item> element to the child reports, the context menu items appear on the master report too, and they are duplicated many times. I'm not sure if the action of exporting the report adds to the number of times the context menu appears.
    Warning - if you edit a report using SQL Developer, all the <item> tags are removed. Once you've added actions to a context menu, you can only edit the report by exporting it, modifying the XML and importing it again.
    Has anyone else seen this behavior? Have you found a work-around?
    To the SQL Developer team: Are there any plans to allow the adding of user defined context menu items to reports using the GUI in the near future?

    You're right the context menu needs a GUI desperately. You can request this at the SQL Developer Exchange, so other users can vote and add weight for possible future implementation.

    K.

  • 4.1EA2 User-Defined-Report strips CRLF when using PL/SQL DBMS Output

    Hi,
    I have a report with a child report.
    That child report uses pl/sql to print to the screen. (dbms output)
    When i use the procedure manually it prints fine.
    When i copy this output to a text editor i can see the CRLF in there.
    If i call the same procedure tru the reports section of SQLDeveloper the output is stripped of any CRLF characters.
    This is causing it to be useless for me: i am using it to generate code and it all appears as one big line on the screen.
    Copying this to a text editor indeed shows all CRLFs gone.
    Is this intentional or a bug ?

    Jeff,
    Thnx for the answer.
    I don't have a problem writing html in my code being a former webdeveloper with experience in apex as well.
    The problem is that the option presents itself as a standard plsql dbmsoutput, which suggests identical output as a dbmsoutput pane in sqldeveloper.
    From your answer i gather it really is supposed to do html formatting.
    Your "solution" of inserting br tags would be fine if it weren't for the fact that when i do a copy of the output in this report pane sqldeveloper strips away the br tags but doesn't replace them with crlf's.
    And since the crlfs that were in the output are also stripped in this result pane i get a single line of text when i copy over a page of text from the result pane into a normal texteditor.
    As such it behaves differently then say a browser when i copy a page of text from the browser and paste it in a text editor. There i see the crlfs that were present in the original source.
    Is there a listing somewhere that explains what tags are supported?
    Or CSS ?
    Does it support stuff like white-space: pre ?
    I understand the usefullness of a html-aware plsql dbmsoutput output option in the reports list of a user-defined report.
    However i would like to use this opportunity to advocate to include , as an extra option or tick box etc., an option to just display the output as the normal dbmsoutput pane displays it.
    That is without extra formatting.
    I like the idea of being able to click in the table section above and to have bottom pane generate the appropriate code as output.
    That  use-case can not happen right now since it formats as html (and not even the correct way) or, when going along with this route, strips everything to a single line of text when copying the data from the result pane.

  • Cannot create user defined report

    Guys,
    For an unknown reason, I'm unable to create new reports in some subfolder inside the "User defined report". When I rigth-click on the subfolder, the contextual menu contains only "Copy" and "Paste". But If I'm going to the root folder (User defined report), I'm able to create a new subfolder and new report. I'm even able to create an new report in the subfolder.
    Did you already encounter the same issue and how did you solve it ?
    Thanks

    I vaguely remember someone having issues with user defined report operations, the problem there was solved by changing the user language to English by adding
    AddVMOption -Duser.language=ENto the sqldeveloper.conf file normally located in
    SQLDEVELOPER_INSTALL_DIR/sqldeveloper/binIf you are not already running in English try changing this.

  • User defined reports

    hi,
    what are the different user defined reports which can be created using report painter/writer.
    regards
    amulya

    This is what I did. I edited my report and modified the name (editing the report with same name does not work as it gives error 'Name already used please enter new one') added description, tooltip & SQL . Closed raptor and reopened it. All of my reports including the one I modified above, now have the exact same description, tooltip & SQL as the first one (wierd).
    I modified all my reports and added description and tool tip for all of them and all of them did get saved. So, not only Name is mandatory, but description & tool tip seems to be mandatory. Am I right ?
