9i - calling reports from menu

Hi,
Could somebody tell me if it's possible to call a report using the run_report_object facility from a menu. There isn't the reports node that there is on a form to define the report.
Many thanks,
Sean Dwyer

can you run the report ok from a button on a test form?
if so it should be just a matter of copying your code from the button into the menu item and copying the report object into the form that references the menu

Calling Report from Menu (Oracle Forms 10g)

We have the applications in Forms6i & Reports 6i (Client Server) and migrating to Forms 10g and Reports 10g. We have the menu, from that menu we are calling all the forms and Reports. For especially Reports earlier we user RUN_PRODUCT but now 10g it is not working. How can call the report using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT
Important things we have some dynamic parameters (input) to the each report. That means when i called the report from the menu i need to get first parameter form to take the parameters and then can be run the report.

Here is the code to call report from menu in 10g
DECLARE
pl_id ParamList;
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep varchar2(100);
v_server VARCHAR2(100);
rep_status varchar2(100);
v_host VARCHAR2(100);
BEGIN
     select rep_server into v_server from reports_data;
     select machine into v_host from reports_data;
pl_id := Get_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
     IF NOT Id_Null(pl_id) THEN
     Destroy_Parameter_List( pl_id );
     END IF;
     pl_id := Create_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'P_C_CODE',TEXT_PARAMETER,:GLOBAL.COMPANY);
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'P_B_CODE',TEXT_PARAMETER,:GLOBAL.BRANCH);
     repid := find_report_object('REPORTOBJ');

Calling Report from Menu (Oracle Forms 11g)

I'm trying to call a report from a menu item in a menu (that is attached to a form) in Oracle Forms 11g directly and I'm having some difficulty. I know how to call a report from a form and everything works perfectly.
But since in a menu there is no item called "Report" to attach like there is in Forms, I followed on route which is to attach the "rp2rro" PL/SQL library on the menu file (mmb) and I also even did it on the form itself. Then when you convert a menu using the Forms Migration Assistant, it will comment out statements like "ADD_PARAMETER" and replace with calls to packaged procedures/functions from the package "rp2rro". I set all the parameters
RP2RRO.SETOTHERS('PARAMFORM=YES');
RP2RRO.SETDESTYPE('CACHE');
RP2RRO.SETDESFORMAT('PDF');
RP2RRO.SETCOMMUNICATIONMODE(SYNCHRONOUS);
then made the call to the report:
RP2RRO.RUN_PRODUCT(REPORTS, 'MYREPORT', SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, param_list_id, NULL);
but all i get is the error "FRM-41219: Cannot find report: invalid ID."
The Oracle documentation for integration reports in forms is for when you execute the report within a form not a menu item (that is attached to a form). Any clues?
My environment is:
Oracle (Database, Fusion Middleware) 11g - Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5
Web Browser - Internet Explorer 7 on Windows XP Professional
Thanks,

Hello,
One option is to use the Web.Show_Document() built-in, with the complete Report Server URL inside. Of course, you can hide some information (connection string for instance) by calling a section of the /reports/conf/cgicmd.dat configuration file.
FrancoisI tried it using the code below
DECLARE

v_username := LOWER(get_application_property(username));
v_password := LOWER(get_application_property(password));
v_db_instance := LOWER(get_application_property(connect_string));

'&destype=' || c_destype ||

'&paramform=yes';
v_rep_url := c_relative_path || c_rep_srv_name || v_rep_srv_params;
web.show_document(v_rep_url, '_blank');
END;
and I get a new tab in the browser opening up (which is good at least) with the Oracle Reports Services page saying:
Error
No such Web command ().
Now I've tried putting a URL of a Oracle's website (http://www.oracle.com) and that works perfectly. Another question is, where would the default directory be if I wanted to say call an HTML file? Would it be in the directory of FORMS_PATH where all my fmb, fmx, rdf, pll, etc...files are stored?

Call oracle reports from MENU in oracle ebs

is it possible in oracle ERP EBS R12
how to call oracle reports from menu [any screen] in oracle ebs erp r12??
please help

you may do a few things from menus and by adding buttons, but this is not really standard.
You may add button on the form or web page that after a certain action or event. You'll have to do personalization / extension and everything is present in oracle for normal report submission.
Why this is not done thru normal submission ?

Hide UserID, Password, and Report Path when call Report from Report

Hi,
I have been able to call Report from Report using the hyperlink.
I put these code in my Field on the Report caller.
function F_3FormatTrigger return boolean is
temp varchar2(2000);
begin
temp := 'http://<computer_name>:8889/reports/rwservlet?';
temp := temp || 'server=repsrv' || '&' ||
                     'report=C:\MyReport\rep_detail.jsp' || '&' ||
                     'userid=scott/tiger@orcl' || '&' ||
                     'desformat=htmlcss' || '&' ||
                     'destype=cache' || '&' ||
                     'P_1=' || :ItemID || '&' ||
                     'P_2=' || :ItemName;
SRW.Set_Hyperlink(temp);
return (TRUE);
end;The hyperlink showed, and I can see the rep_detail.jsp showed in the same browser after I clicked the hyperlink.
The problem is, the hyperlink has to include the reports path and also userid and password.
If I did not put the userid and password, it will showed in another browse that
"The report has uncompiled PL/SQL"
How can I hide those userid, password, and the reports path?
BTW, Is there anyway to show the report callee in different page (precisely, open another IE) from the report caller?
Any help would be grateful.
Many thanks,
Buntoro

Hi,
Thanks for the answers.
Yet, I am still doubt about using cgicmd.dat.
I have looked around in this forum saying that it is not secure to use cgicmd.dat. Because all report request does not use authentication (the client can directly open report without login).
In Form, I can use the On-Logon to do the Oracle Form login (to do logon to the database), and then I use my own custom user login to restrict the menu for each user.
I do this since I want to restrict the user,
i.e user A can only view the sales form as well as sales report,
user B can only view the purchasing form as well as purchasing report.
Well, I am not so fond about the SSO itself.
It comes to my mind, since I don't have to re-login (to the database) each time I call another form (login database is only once at the first Form, On-Logon). It also goes to when calling the report caller.
What is RAD?
How can we use it?
Is OID = Oracle Internet Directory?
If true, maybe, I won't use it since I don't understand about it also.
Why we don't have to specify the userid and password when Form calls Report1 (using Run_Report_Object and Web.Show_Document())?
But we have to specify the userid and password when Report1 calls Report2.
Any help is appreciated.
Many thanks,
Buntoro

How do I launch report from menu using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT?

Hi all,
Re: How do I launch report from menu (and have it print to the screen) using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT?
I am using Oracle 9iAS on Windows 2000 and I have a similar problem with launching reports from the menu. The application should call the report via the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT builtin feature from Forms. The report is never displayed.
The report is in the same folder as the menu form calling it. Do the reports have to be in a specific format? How do I get the report_id?
The name of the report is seconds_calls. No user-specified parameters are passed. Also, the report object in the object navigator in Forms is Report4 (is this relevant?)
When I try to run report via the form using this code:
DECLARE
     report_id REPORT_OBJECT;
     rep_status VARCHAR2(200);
     v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
     report_job_id VARCHAR2(200);
--     job_number NUMBER;
--     server_name VARCHAR2(200) := 'repserver';
BEGIN
     report_id:= FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('seconds_calls');
     rep_status:=REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(report_job_id);
     v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(report_id);
END;
I get this error message:
FRM-41219 Cannot find report:Invalid ID
And this message
FRM-40738 Argument 1 to builtin RUN_REPORT_OBJECT cannot be null
When I tried to use the same code (above), substituting the object name for the form name,
I got these messages:
FRM-41219 Cannot find report:Invalid ID
FRM-40738 Argument 1 to builtin RUN_REPORT_OBJECT cannot be null
And FRM-10259 Invalid null argument to packaged procedure or function (???)
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Pippa

Philippy,
substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)
This code extracts the Reports job id from the Reports Server name. The run_report_object() built-in
retrieves e.g. RepServ_9 as a job id, but in Reports9i you only need the '9' as a value to retrieve the
output.
Use the following sample a template. It is a procedure that expects the reports object name, teh reports server name and the
output format as an argument. The call to Web.show_document expects the ReportsSrevices to be accessible from teh same server
(relative addressing is used)
PROCEDURE RUN_REPORT_OBJECT_PROC (vc_reportobj Varchar2, vc_reportserver varchar2, vc_runformat varchar2) IS
v_report_id           Report_Object;
vc_ReportServerJob      VARCHAR2(100); /* unique id for each Report request */
vc_rep_status      VARCHAR2(100); /* status of the Report job */
vjob_id               VARCHAR2(100); /* job_id as number only string*
BEGIN
/* Get a handle to the Report Object itself. */

SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);
/* Define the Report output format and the name of the Reports Server as well as a user-defined parameter, passing the department number from Forms to the Report. We don't need a parameter form to be displayed, and therefore paramform is set to "no". */
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_DESFORMAT, vc_runformat);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_SERVER, vc_reportserver);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_OTHER,      'p_deptno='||:dept.deptno||'paramform=no');
vc_ReportServerJob:=RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(report_id);
/* remove the Reports Server name from teh job id */
vjob_id := substr(vc_ReportServerJob,length(reportserver)+2,length(vc_ReportServerJob));
/* Check the report status if finished. */
vc_rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(vc_ReportServerJob);
IF vc_rep_status='FINISHED' THEN
/* Call the Report output to be displayed in a separate browser window.
The URL for relative addressing is only valid when the Reports Server
is on the same host as the Forms Server. For accessing a Remote Reports

Hi,
You have to have the report server
a. Installed and configured
b. Running.
See
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/bi.1111/b32121/pbr_strt001.htm
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/bi.1111/b32121/pbr_verify004.htm
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/bi.1111/b32121/pbr_conf003.htm#i1007341
If you are using rwservlet then you will find the name from the Configuration file referred to in the last link.
Cheers,

Getting rep-3002 when calling report from form on web

i am getting rep-3002 when i call report from a form on web environment. Report is in character mode. It is coming proper if i change it to bitmap. but my requirement is of character mode. pl. give some solution.

Hello,
If you are running in WinNT/2000 environment, the NT/2000 user which runs the Report Server service must have a printer defined. In the control panel, look at the properties for the Report Server to see what user it runs as. Log in as that user and make sure a default printer is defined.

Calling Report From Form To Many Destinations

Hi
I am calling reports from forms using SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY and then run_report_object.
I dont know the destination until runtime of the report which is ok as I can pass this in via my procedure, but if that destination is many ie mail and file what is the best way to distribute the report?
I could call my procedure for each destination but that seems a bit unefficient since the report would be created many times, is there another way?

what about adding a drop-down-list near your report-button where you can choose the destination?
when you click the report-button you simply read the value selected in the drop-down-list and send it to your reports-server too.

Calling report from form in Web environment

Hi,
We are in the process of migrating our C/S appication (developed in Developer2k) to intranet using OAS. My question :
a) Is there any other way to call report from a form other than web.show_document?
b) When a report is called from the report server(using web.show_document), a log-in screen comes up unless the login and password is passed as parameter. Only problem with this is the password shows in the URL. Is there any other way to make the call so that the login & password does not show and the user won't have to login a second time to run the report?
Any reply would be appreciated..Thanks

1. Yes you can use run_product package procedure to call reports on web, Oracle documentation says that run_product command will run in web env.
2. Yes you can hide username & password from user, it depends on which method you are using to call reports, if you are using web cgi then add username & password in file "cgicmd.dat" and "oascmd.dat" for web catridge or in cartridge parameter setting you will find this files in directory "\orant\report60\server\".

Calling Report From Oracle Forms

Hi
I am calling this one report from oracle forms, I am using global temporary table to run that report. I am first inserting data into the temporary table through oracle form and then i am calling report in that form to view the data in that temporary table. The problem is, we can not view the data of an other session if we are using temporary table. When i call report from that form a new session get created due to which i can not see the data. Is there any method of calling report from oracle form that a same session is used to run the report?
Thanks.

As you mention Forms and Reports do not share the database session. I had the same problem and resolved it using record groups and DATA_PARAMETER to transfer data from Forms to Reports. You could also read the Note 110495.1 on Metalink to find useful information regarding this issue.
