2 questions on interactive reports

Hi,
As topic says I have to questions about IR.
Im building an IR from an apex_collection.
1. Is it possible to dynamicly set the header values in the IR? As I have different data in the collection it would be nice to set the headers to something depending on the data viewed.
2. Is it possible to ommit columns that has no value? The apex_collection contains 50 columns and sometimes I would use most of them, at other times I would maybe only use two and would want the rest to be shown.
Hope this is possible.

I did some more testing.. And as soon as I select more than 15 columns from the collection the error occurs.
I have put another man on the problem, and hopefully he will be able to solve it. It is most likely a database problem. I will try to give feedback on the error.

Questions on Interactive Report Icons

When I created an Interactive Report, rectangular icons have been automatically created on the left side of the report on every line.
When clicked one of the icons, it displays the details of the line in vertical order.
Here are my questions:
1. When I've hidden some columns in the interactive report and clicked the icon, it does not display hidden column details. But I want to hide those columns only in the report but displays all details when the icon is clicked. How can I do this?
2. How can I hide the icons?
3. How can I use the icons not to display line details but to direct to an editable page to edit the same details?
Thanks,
Guy

Hello
1. When I've hidden some columns in the interactive report and clicked the icon, it does not display hidden column details. But I want to hide those columns only in the report but displays all details when the icon is clicked. How can I do this?You can create another region, or page that will show your row description by identifier or rowid. You can do this by changing Link Column type to "Link to Custom Target"
2. How can I hide the icons?Go to Interactive Report -> Link Column -> Link Column change to (Exclude Link Column)
3. How can I use the icons not to display line details but to direct to an editable page to edit the same details?The same as answer 1.

Two short questions on Interactive reports

Hello,
I have two questions on passing filter to an Interative report
1) the text that I send to the filter can contain commas. Is it possible to work around this? (comma is interpreted as splitting the filter values)
e.g. f?p=104:19:::NO:19,RIR:IR_BUS1_NAME,IR_IS_OPEN:*Corporate, Other and Eliminations*,Yes
%2C%20other%20and%20eliminations,No,Yes
--> in this case it get messed up when passing to the IR page.
2) anyone know if it is possible to send a IN parameter to an interactive report?

Christian

1 \value\ should do the trick
2 Yes, I think so (only done it with ordinary reports and too lazy to check right now!).
Build your string of value1,value2.. in an item then use the &ITEM. syntax in the SQL
HTH,
Chris

Basic question in interactive reporting

Hi
I'm a kid in IR, I installed IR Studio 9.3.1 , and I even installed IR web Client from workspace, Can anyone tell me how to login in to web client, I mean I need web address. If my question is wrong ...let me know how IR works , where you develop(I guess obviously in studio) , is there any webadress like planning.
I appreciate if any one give some basic Idea.
Thanks
M.V

You do not need to "log-in" to webclient. As I suppose (you installed webclient) you are allready logged in to workspace and you only need to import an interactive reporting document (bqy) into workspace. after that you just have to rightclick on the file in your workspacefolder and choose if you want to open the document in html or in webclient. when you choose the client, the plugin will open and you can use many of the functions you also have in the studioclient. in html you only have very few options of editing.

Marius

Hello
I have a page that I am linking with an interactive report. To the second page I need to pass the filters that is/are chosen in the interactive report. How do I access the filters that are created in the interactive report at run time?
Is there a way to access the item "Row Contains" that is there in the interactive report?

Question on Interactive Report feature sorting

Hi,
I have about over 10,000 records and used the interactive report feature on Apex. For some reason, on the timestamp column, I tried to resort in the latest date and it only shows the latest date of last year and didn't show the latest date of 2010. I tried changing the timestamp column to sort by descending, and it doesn't show any latest date in 2010, only 2009.
Could this be an issue with the interactive report issue.
Thanks,
Michael

Hi,
If you have default 10,000 row limit in interactive report , sorting work only for that record set.
Increase rows that report show, or you can use ORDER BY in report select to get e.g. 10,000 latest row.

Question - Resetting Interactive Reports on Different Pages

Hi,
I currently have 5 pages, each with an Interactive Report. Page 1 contains column links with filters to the other 4 pages.
Once a user has clicked a column link with the relevant column filtered on the Interactive Report on the other page, the only way I can see for the user to reset each Interactive Report is to manually reset the report on each page.
Is there any way to perform the "RIR" or "CIR" clear cache setting on all the Interactive reports for a delimited list of pages via one button click?
Thanks in advance,
- Stuart

Hi Simon,
The scenario could be that the user clicks on 3 different column links on page 1 and the Interactive Reports on those linked pages are filtered. The user is happy with the information and decides that he/she wants to look for completely different data within the Interactive Report on page 2 (3 or4).
When they go to that page, it is still filtered based on the column link. To reset the report, they need to manually select Reset from IR menu. This would need to be done for each of the other pages with previously filtered reports.
The Reset I am looking to perform is almost like when each page is visited. It would be similar to performing a clear page cache on multiple pages and you pass the page number as a parameter from one button click using a PL/SQL block. i.e.
BEGIN
APEX_UTIL.CLEAR_PAGE_CACHE('1');
APEX_UTIL.CLEAR_PAGE_CACHE('2');
APEX_UTIL.CLEAR_PAGE_CACHE('3');
END
Ideally, if there was some way to do something similar for all or specific Interactive reports then it would reduce the number of clicks made by the user.
The application is to be aimed at users, who need to get information with as few clicks as possible.

Dear abapers, i have a question in interactive reports

i display all the customers in basic list.
when ever i double click on a single customer in basic list it has to take me to the transaction code xd03 and display all the bank details relavent to that customer(probably the 4th screen in xd03').
note: i had used set parameter id field fieldname., call transcation xd03 and skip first screen.----- it just skips the first screen and displays second screen.
but i need the bank transactions screen.

Apex 3.1. Interactive Report. Questions and Problems.

Hello!
First of all I'd like to say Interactive Report is a really really brilliant feature, it covers exactly that points which we were missing in previous releases of Apex. Only this single feature makes Apex 3.1 release most significant for us since may be HTML DB 1.6. So much much thanks!
So I have some questions about Interactive Report (IR):
1) About "Save Report" feature. It is possible there to save own version of report layout or overwright the default settings. There is also possibility to completelly disable this function. So the question is it possible to disable only the ability to overwright the default report but give the ability to save own reports. It would be reasonable since too smart or too dum users can break the default layout of report and break the work for other users which don't use this function at all. At the same time the possibility to save own reports
is absolutelly perfect
2) Search. I'm from Germany and we have some national non-english symbols. The IR can't perform seach correctly if we use words with such symbols. Example word "Bestätigt" is interpreted by IR as "BestÃ¤tigt". At the same time the words are correctly displayed in reports and in interface. We have correct NLS_LANG, we have imported the lang_de.sql , and our own self-made search on simple reports works ok. What's to do?
3) Charts in IR. Is there some data volume limits for Chart in IR ? sometimes we get the message "Loading XML...100%" during chart rendering and then happens nothing. In log file of Apache there is no any error messages...
Thanks in advance,
Alex

Hi Alex,
Glad to hear you're putting interactive reports to use, we put in a lot of time trying to get them right (at least for their first release).
1) The "Save As Default Report Settings" option is only available for Developers, so you can only see it if you already see the developer toolbar at the bottom of the page. Standard end-users can't see this, so they can't save over your default report settings.
2) That's right, the character set of the DAD needs to be AL32UTF8.
3) A maximum of 1000 chart points will be returned, but you should not get this error. Can you describe the columns you are charting and the chart settings?

Interactive Reporting 11.1.2.1 Questions

I have a few questions regarding Interactive Reporting 11.1.2.1 after being unable to find anything out researching extensively here and in multiple blogs, search engines, readme's, admin guides, etc.
I have not had training in IR yet....my going to training is dependent on several things, one being able to use the IPad with these IR reports.
- I noticed I am only able to create a database connection file through the desktop IR studio client interface. For the web client, no luck. Would this be correct?
- Would viewing IR reports and drilling into dimensions work through Workspace on an IPad? Or is there another way to view IR reports on an IPad?
Any info provided would be extremely helpful and appreciated.
Thanks- C

FYI, Safari is not a supported browser for 11.1.2.2 and before. If I recall when I last tested it - I believe I was able to log in, but none of the objects or menus worked, so you could't do anything.
Financial Reporting is supported, in the latest release (11.1.2.3.):
Apple:
iOS5, iOS6: Financial Reporting only support Native Browser only
Android:
3.x, 4.x: Financial Reporting only support Native Browser Only
Not 100% sure what that exactly means and will have to setup an environment to test.
It also seems the documentation is supported on Safari though.

Interactive report and default-filter

ahoj!
i have a question regarding interactive reports and default-filter for a date: is it possible to use the current date for the default-filter? apex need 'dd.MM.yyyy' for the filter... already tried to_date(sysdate, 'dd.MM.yyyy')
thx in advance,
christian

Hi,
I've just been trying the "in the last" option and had no problems for any number that I entered. Are you just entering 1 into the box? What error do you get?
I've loaded the page with Debug switched on, and get:
select
       null as apxws_row_pk,
       "DATE_ID",
       "ATD_DATE",
       "CHECK",
       count(*) over () as apxws_row_cnt
from (
select * from (
select
apex_item.checkbox(1, DATE_ID) "CHECK",
"DATE_ID",
"ATD_DATE"
from "#OWNER#"."ATD_DATES"
) r
where ("ATD_DATE" between systimestamp - (1 * :APXWS_EXPR_1) and systimestamp)
) r where rownum <= to_number(:APXWS_MAX_ROW_CNT):APXWS_EXPR_1 would contain the value 1 as that is what I've entered for the filter. My report's sql statement is just the innermost nested select statement, the rest has been added by the IR functionality and the filter.

Interactive reports help

Hi all
I have some questions about Interactive reports 3.1 . I'm not sure if IRR have this capability but I know I am having a hard time setting it up for a user. So if anyone knows if this is possible it would be a great help
First I need to create a IRR that is grouped by Vendor/Year. Other column would include project and contract amount.
I filtered the report using date between 01/06 -12/31/07 - easy enough
The purpose of the report is to show the total spent on contracts for the year 06 compared to 07 . The user would select the years to compare in the future.
I can break on vendor and aggregate the sum of the contract amount but I can not seem to
a) get a grand total of all contracts
b) break on year
I tried the compute action item but was lost.
The user may accept two separate reports by year (2007,2006) but I will need to sum the contract amount by vendor and then I'll need a grand total.
Is either way possible with IRR?
Thanks So much
Moe

Dimitri
Thank You for your reply
We are trying to make it easier for the user to generate these reports on demand. Once the IRR report is done it will be downloaded to pdf so the totals will need to be part of that report.
As basic example, the user chose contracts awarded to vendors for the year 2006 only by using a filter. ( no compare) They would expect to see a subtotal of the contracts by vendor
Vendor: Acme (break on vendor)
contract1 500.
contract2 500.
Total of contracts to Acme = $1,000
Vendor Genx
contract12 500
contract13 500
Total of contract to Genx = $1,000
Grand Total of contracts awarded for 2006 = $2,000.00
Then I thought the user could use the save report feature to save the one for 2006 and create another one same format for 2007 and use that to compare years.
If I'm missing the obvious I apologize
Moe

Interactive Reports - SQL Source Question

Background
Apex 3.1 is installed on Oracle 10g instance on local machine but all data is stored on a remote machine on Oracle 9 & 10 instances.
This data is also used by another piece of software, which directly manipulates the data.
The Apex Application that I am developing is to be used as a Quick Find/KPI Reporting tool and is setup to utilise DBLinks and Synonyms.
Within the remote data, we have a mapping table that contains user specific alias' for field names, which the users set using the other piece of software. There can be up to 5 mappings per table field each defined as LNG01, LNG02,etc.
In order to provide the same field Alias' in the Apex application, I have created a PL/SQL function to return the field alias and return a string value containing the final SQL.
Problem
In standard reports, this would work correctly as you could return a SQL statement in a string and it handled it with no problems.
However, due to Interactive Reports not supporting this, I have tried to find code to pass in the string SQL Statement to return a TABLE or PIPELINED datasource.
The string SQL statement will vary for each time it is used so the string SQL statement is effectively built as dynamic SQL
This causes as problem as I will never be able to define the ROWTYPE for a type TABLE variable as the field names will not be constant.
Can you tell me if there is any way to create a SQL source that could be used for the Interactive Report based on dynamic SQL?
Alternatively, if you can provide any alternatives to finding a solution I would be most grateful.
Apologies if this question has been posted before.
Thanks in advance.
Stuart

Stuart,
You could:
1) Create page items, one for each dynamic column header (e.g. P1_OBJECT_NAME_HEADER, etc).
2) Create a page process, to run when the page is loaded, that populates each item with the appropriate text. This can pull the column header text from your remote source.
3) Use a static query as your interactive report source:
    select objname,
           objuniqueid,
           objtypecode,
           objsitearea,
           objdesc,
           objdesc2,
           objlocationid,
           objcommission
      from cdoweb_om4) Edit the interactive report attributes -- use APEX substitution string syntax to reference the item values (e.g. "&P1_OBJECT_NAME_HEADER." without the quotes) instead of static column headers.
For more information on using substitution strings:

PDF from Interactive Report - general question

Hello,
I read in another post that there may be plans to make it so that PDFs downloaded from an Interactive Report will include the formatting in the report. Is this true? If so, will it work with the Apache FOP?
Regards,
Dan
http://danielmcghan.us
http://sourceforge.net/projects/tapigen

No Christina,
First I went under report attributes on Interactive reports under download
Download formats:
CSV and PDF
I checked both. CSV format is fine. PDF format is corrupt.
Next I then went in using the below:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/apex/apex31nf/apex31rpt.htm
It tells me I don't have a print server defined. I am trying to get the INLINE method to work.
I see in the ADMIN there is a print server configuration section though it is not totally clear as I would think that you would get the default print configuration as you would with any other PDF docuement.
