Oracle Reports Date Issue

In my reports, I have in the top of the report, the following line.
&FROMDATE until &TODATE.
&FROMDATE and &TODATE are user parameters to enter during runtime thru parameter form. I have set the format to 'MM/DD/YYYY' in the parameter form for these variables, but in the reports it is printing in the format of DD-MON-YY.
How can I fix it. In the report I want to see the format of MM/DD/YYYY and not DD-MON-YY.
Thanks in advance for your replies

If you want to use the date parameters as dates in your query, but then display them as formatted text, here's what you do.
1) create two text columns in your data model as placeholder objects. Place them outside of any data group or query.
We'll call then formatted_dt_from and formatted_dt_to
2) in your After Parameter Form trigger, put these lines.
:formatted_dt_from := to_char(:FROMDATE,'MM/DD/YYYY');
:formatted_dt_to := to_char(:TODATE,'MM/DD/YYYY');
3) display '&formatted_dt_from to &formatted_dt_to' in your report header.

  • Oracle 11g - Date Issue?

    Oracle 11g - Date Issue?
    =====================
    I hope this is the right forum for this issue, if not let me, where to go.
    We are using Oracle 11g (11.2.0.1.0) on (Platform : solaris[tm] oe (64-bit)), Sql Developer 3.0.04.
    Our NLS_DATE_FORMAT = 'DD-MON-RR'
    Using 'RR' in the format forces two-digit years less than or equal to 49 to be interpreted as years in the 21st century (2000–2049), and years 50 and over, as years in the 20th century (1950–1999). Setting the RR format as the default for all two-digit year entries allows you to become year-2000 compliant. For example:
    We have a date '01-JUN-31' in our source system. It treat this date as 01-JUN-2031' instead of '01-JUN-1931'. One century forward.
    Do we able to resolve using NLS_DATE_FORMAT change?
    How do we resolve this issue?
    Thanks in helping.

    Our source is Oracle data base, where S_date is defined as DATE. Why did you say STRING , when it defined as DATE data type?I doubt you source is an Oracle database. You may have it stored in an Oracle database, but it cam form somewhere else, and was very likely inserted into the table as a string, wherever it came from. Given a string that resembles a date, Oracle will try to convert it to a date using the nls_date_format parameter for the session (which can either be set in the session or inherited form the database). Perhaps this will help explain:
    SQL> create table t (conv_type varchar2(10), dt date);
    Table created.
    SQL> alter session set nls_date_format = 'dd-mon-rr';
    Session altered.
    SQL> insert into t values ('Implicit', '01-jun-31');
    1 row created.
    SQL> insert into t values ('Explicit', to_date('01-jun-1931', 'dd-mon-yyyy'));
    1 row created.
    SQL> commit;
    Commit complete.
    SQL> select conv_type, to_char(dt, 'dd-mon-yyyy') dt
      2  from t;
    CONV_TYPE  DT
    Implicit   01-jun-2031
    Explicit   01-jun-1931So, unless you are really inserting dates, not strings that look like dates, you are going to have problems.

  • Dynamic table in Oracle report data model using laxical parameter is giving error Ora-00936: missing expression

    Hi ,
    I am using Oracle report 10G
    And trying to create report with dynamic table
    SELECT &COL1, &COL2
    FROM &TAB
    If I put this on data model it gives below error

    ==> from
    Can anybody advise to solve this issue.
    Regards,
    Brajesh

    Look in the Reports Builder Help:
    If you want to use lexical references in your SELECT clause, you should create a separate lexical reference for each column you will substitute. In addition, you should assign an alias to each lexical reference.
    Does adding the column alias solve the problem?

  • Oracle Reports Printing issue

    I have multiple printing issues with Oracle Reports developed in 10g. Please help me to resolve the issue.
    1. Even though i set ORIENTATION to landscape, it is printing Portrait .
    I have tried the below options
    1. I SET ORIENTATION AS landscape Under Data Model, System Parameters
    2. I have tried to pass ORIENTATION=landscape from the Keymap File
    3. I have tried to set ORIENTATION=landscape Under Paper layout Main,Header and Trailer Sections.
    2. Always the report is trying to fit in a single page (Width wise) which is annoying the user. I want to set Scaling instead of fit to a single page. How will i achieve this?
    i was trying to display the reports in SPREADSHEET Format.
    Thanks for all your Help.

    Hello Chris90909,

  • PDF Format Oracle Reports font issue

    My process is generating the batch oracle Reports.
    Their key map is:
    Key1: %* server=server1 userid=xxxs/xxx@xxxx report=D:\sample.rdf destype=file desformat=PDF
    My process is calling IAS server to generate report. IAS ser is generating and saving the report in the specified location.Reports are running on the server locally and DESTYPE=FILE. So the Oracle Reports output is saved on the server itself. Whenever i open the report on my machine/server i have font issue. Some of the reports has very tiny font. It seems the reports generated by using oracle reports which is Arial Unicode font type is causing the problem. If any reports other then Arial Unicode font like Arial Westrn, those reports are fine. We have 1000s of reports. So we don't want to change each report font type. For me it seems the issue is with the font on the server. Is there anyway to ask App server use Arial Westrn if Arial Unicode not found. How to make these configuration changes in the server. Any suggestions please.

    Maybe this helps or at least points you in some direction ...
    Have a look at font aliasing when configuring Application Server : http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/bi.1012/b14048/pbr_font.htm#i1006140
    If your Application Server is located on Windows I would suggest to install the fonts there.
    In Unix, this a more complex task.

  • Oracle Report Server Issue with Japanese Characters

    We are trying to setup a Oracle Report Server to print the Japanese characters in the PDF format.
    We have separate Oracle Report servers for printing English, Chinese and Vietnamese characters in PDF formats using Oracle Reports in the production which are running properly with Unix AIX version 5.3. Now we have a requirement to print the Japanese characters. Hence we tried to setup the new server for the same and the configurations are done as same as Chinese/Vietnamese report servers. But we are not able to print the Japanese characters.
    I am providing the details which we followed to configure this new server.
    1.     We have modified the reports.sh to map the proper NLS_LANG (JAPANESE_AMERICA.UTF8) and other Admin folder settings.
    2.     We have configured the new report server via OPMN admin.
    3.     We have copied the arialuni.ttf to Printers folder and we have converted this same .ttf file in AFM format. This AFM file has been copied to $ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/gk/JP_Admin/AFM folder.
    4.     We have modified the uifont.ali (JP_admin folder) file for font subsetting.
    5.     We have put an entry in JP_admin/PPD/datap462.ppd as *Font ArialUnicodeMS: Standard "(Version 1.01)" Standard ROM
    6.     We have modified the Tk2Motif.rgb (JP_admin folder) file for character set mapping (Tk2Motif*fontMapCs: iso8859-1=UTF8) as we have enabled this one for other report servers as well.
    Environment Details:-
    Unix AIX version : 5300-07-05-0831
    Oracle Version : 10.1.0.4.2
    NLS_LANG : JAPANESE_AMERICA.UTF8
    Font Mapping : Font Sub Setting in uifont.ali
    Font Used for Printing : arialuni.ttf (Font Name : Arial Unicode MS)
    The error thrown in the rwEng trace (rwEng-0.trc) file is as below
    [2011/9/7 8:11:4:488] Error 50103 (C Engine): 20:11:04 ERR REP-3000: Internal error starting Oracle Toolkit.
    The error thrown when trying to execute the reports is…
    REP-0177: Error while running in remote server
    Engine rwEng-0 crashed, job Id: 67
    Our investigations and findings…
    1.     We disabled the entry Tk2Motif*fontMapCs: iso8859-1=UTF8 in Tk2Motif.rgb then started the server. We found that no error is thrown in the rwEng trace file and we are able to print the report also in PDF format… (Please see the attached japarial.pdf for your verification) but we are able to see only junk characters. We verified the document settings in the PDF file for ensuring the font sub set. We are able to see the font sub setting is used.
    2.     If we enable the above entry then the rwEng trace throwing the above error (oracle toolkit error) and reports engine is crashed.
    It will be a great help from you if you can assist us to resolve this issue…

    Maybe 7zip or another tool has workarounds for broken file names, you could try that.
    Or you could try to go over the files in the zip archive one-by-one and write it to files out-1, out-2, ..., out-$n without concerning yourself with the file names. You could get file endings back via the mimetype.
    This script might work:
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <zip.h>
    static const char *template = "./out-%04d.bin";
    int main(int argc, char**argv)
    int err = 0;
    zip_t *arc = zip_open((const char*)argv[1], ZIP_RDONLY, &err);
    if(arc == NULL)
    printf("Failed to open ZIP, error %d\n", err);
    return -1;
    zip_int64_t n = zip_get_num_entries(arc, 0);
    printf("%s: # of packed files: %d\n", argv[1], n);
    for(int i = 0; i < n; i++)
    zip_stat_t stat;
    zip_stat_index(arc, i, ZIP_FL_UNCHANGED, &stat);
    char buf[stat.size];
    char oname[sizeof(template)];
    zip_file_t *f = zip_fopen_index(arc, (zip_int64_t)i, ZIP_FL_UNCHANGED);
    zip_fread(f, (void*)&buf[0], stat.size);
    snprintf(&oname[0], sizeof(template), template, i);
    FILE *of = fopen(oname, "wb");
    fwrite(&buf[0], stat.size, 1, of);
    printf("%s: %s => %lu bytes\n", argv[1], oname, stat.size);
    zip_fclose(f);
    fclose(of);
    zip_close(arc);
    return 0;
    Compile with
    gcc -std=gnu99 -O3 -o unzip unzip.c -lzip
    and run as
    ./unzip $funnyzipfile
    You should get template-named, numbered output files in the current directory.

  • Crystal Report Date Issue after SSIS

    Hello,
    I created a ETL process from Oracle to SQL, with 2 date fields, when I open CR I see them as 'string [10]' and not as date, can anybody know why is that ?
    Thank you
    Daniel 

    You need to find out if you have the source table column defined as string (CHAR/VARCHAR).
    But I would not worry about CR, just use a formula. Perhaps the date format is not ISO or different than yout locale so it gets picked as text.

  • Oracle reports scheduling issue

    Hi,
    I am using oracle discoverer 4.1.8, I am scheduled a report with admin login. After scheduling i am able to see the scheduled report output from the admin(Submitted user login), where as when i try to see the scheduled output from my login (other users r unable to see the scheduled report output., I am unable to found the scheduled reports in the scheduled tab.
    BR,
    Umamaheshwar.

    Hi Umamaheshwar
    Your version of Discoverer does not have this feature. The ability to share the results of scheduled workbooks was introduced as part of the huge rework of Discoverer that Oracle did when they introduced Dicvoverer 10g (10.1.2 and up).
    In your version you will need to schedule the workbook when logged in as the user who needs to see the results.
    Best wishes

    We are doing a Oracle reports migration from oracle reports 6i to oracle reports 10g.
    I am facing a problem in the output generated ny the reports.
    I have to generate a CSV file in 6i and similarly in 10g. Both the reports are hitting the same database but still it is
    showing some difference in the count generated in the report.
    Its a report where it compares the data from the web and data from the application and gives a count for the each row.
    In the CSV creation procedure TABLE TYPe is used. I am not very good in Oracle procedures.
    Do u guys have faced similar situation? Not every data is different,some of the count is diff even though both the reports are hitting the same database.
    Anybody suggest me a solution. It will b really helpful. This happens when I am a giving 6 mnths date range. When it is 15 days range it shows proper output.
    Any help will be much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Raneesh.

  • Layout issue while trying Migrate Oracle Report to XML publisher Reports

    Hi
    I am trying to Convert Seeded Oracle Reports (rdf) to BI Publisher reports, in doing so encounter layout issues. The layout of the RTF , PDF or HTML generated by BI Publisher is different form the text, PDF or HTML outputs generated by the concurrent report. The problem with the BI Publisher template and out put
    Is, the lay out is getting distorted .
    Steps to archive the migration :
    -     download the rdf from the server to local m/c.
    -     execute Forms 9i Util rwconverter to generate a xml
    -     use the oracle.apps.xdo.rdfparser.RTFTemplateGenerator API to generate a RTF template of the report layout
    -     Then use this template to generate a XSL via oracle.apps.xdo.template.RTFProcessor API
    -     The Apply the XSL on the XML data output of the report using oracle.apps.xdo.template.FOProcessor to generate RTF , PDF & HTML files.
    Name of the Report used for migration “FSG - Report Detail Listing” , responsibility GL super User. This was just a random report we picked-up for trial.
    The layout of these files seems to distorted than the layout of the original report output as generated by the rdf report.
    Pls suggest some means to resolve this or any pointers towards what causing this could be of help.

    The process of "converting" an old Oracle Reports rdf into a BIP report is more akin to writing a brand new report in BIP than to what most people would consider a true conversion.
    The conversion routine outlined by Oracle just gives you a starting point for converting RDF layouts into BIP, and nothing more. In regards to the data define it does somewhat better generating your queries and XML layout (but honestly, that is the easy part), but even for the data define it will lose your formula columns as well as report triggers.
    I have used the converter on several dozen rdf files and I have yet to see one that is better than 10-20% ready for use after the conversion process.
    I would strongly suggest that you only convert the reports that you have to convert (for enhancements, modifications, etc). If it ain't broke in old Oracle Reports, dont' try to fix it in BIP.

  • Using Web Service as Data source (Pluggable Data Source) in Oracle Reports

    Anyone using Webservice as a pluggable data source in oracle 10g reports.(Report builder version:10.1.2.0.2)? We need to be able to use web service as one of the data source to create reports.Tried the following and ran into issues:
    Imported the wspds.jar fle from oracle plugin exchage. When tried using it received the following error in oracle reports trace file.
    04/26 22:27:22 java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: oracle.xml.parser.schema.XSDBuilder.build([Loracle/xml/parser/v2/XMLDocument;Ljava/net/URL;)Ljava/lang/Object;
    By troubleshooting issue found out that xmlparserv2.jar in 10g is newer than xmlparserv2.jar in 9i. wspds.jar is using xmlparserv2.jar in 9i as it was developed and tested for 9i only. Believe there is no newer wspds.jar file developed specifically for 10g?
    Is there a better/standard solution to use webservice as data source in oracle 10g reports? Does later version of oracle reports supports webservice as a data source without any additional plugins? Any suggestion would be helpful.

    Please provide support for the above request.
    It appears that Oracle 10g reports doesn't support Web Service as pluggable data source. Is this option is available in Oracle 11g Reports or Oracle Discoverer Or OBIEE?
