Adding Additional Parameter in Oracle Reports -- Is this Possible?

Hi,
Please help me with this predicament: There are several reports being called through a single form, wherein a common parameter list is being used. Now I need to add another parameter called BLANKPAGES to one report only. Is it possible for me to put this script inside that one report's trigger?
ADD_PARAMETER ( pl_id , ' BLANKPAGES ' , TEXT_PARAMETER , ' NO ' ) ;
What are my other options?
Thanks in advance,
Jansen

Try this
if :report_name = 'NEW_REPORT' (user substr if needed) then
ADD_PARAMETER ( pl_id , ' BLANKPAGES ' , TEXT_PARAMETER , ' NO ' ) ;
end if;

You will have to Register your .rdf in Oracle Portal. The following document gives details.

you can use impliment this script to your query get data from file

linebuf varchar2(3000) := '';

infile := text_io.fopen(filename,'r');
loop
text_io.get_line(infile,linebuf);
v_employee_id := v_employee_id| |linebuf| |' ';
end loop;
if text_io.is_open(infile) then
text_io.fclose(infile);
end if;
exception when no_data_found then
text_io.fclose(infile);
v_employee_id := replace(rtrim(v_employee_id),' ',',');
:p_employee_param := 'and employee_id in ('| |v_employee_id| |')';
/* you can use either 'where employee_id in ('| |v_employee_id| |')' or
'and employee_id in ('| |v_employee_id| |')' */
return (TRUE);

I think it will help you to solve your problem. Do not forget to put &v_employee_param

Lexical Parameter in Oracle Reports . . .

Hi all,
I am trying to pass a value to a query in oracle reports . . .
the use of the parameter is to add 2 additional columns to an existing query, if a bind parameter is set to 'Yes' else the parameter carries a value NULL;
Here is the code I have written in After Parameter Form:
if :P_ROLL_DETAIL_PRN='Yes' then
:P_CUSTOM_CODE:=NULL;
:P_CUSTOM_CODE:=:P_CUSTOM_CODE||'wdd.LOT_NUMBER' ||','||'wdd.SUBLOT_NUMBER';
else
:P_CUSTOM_CODE:='';
end if;
P_Roll_detail is the bind parameter . . and P_CUSTOM_CODE is the Lexical Parameter . ..
It works for value 'No' of P_ROLL_DETAIL .. . but for Value 'Yes' I get an error . . .
REP-0499: Column '' selected by the query is incompatible with report defination
Kindly help...
Regards
Jagan

Lexical parameters can not be used to change the number of selected columns. Consider selecting max number of columns always, but populating last two columns with either NULL values or table columns based on the parameter. Also, manipulations can be done in the layout model using format triggers.

Blank report viewer control when adding a parameter to rdlc report

Hi guys,
I am currently generating a rdlc report in Visual Studio 2010 and embedding it into an asp page using a reportviewer control. My dataset is based on entity framework. The report runs fine and returns plenty of data in the format I want.
Whenever I add a parameter to the report the reportviewer control on my page is just blank.
I'm setting the parameter "available values" from a field in the same dataset used to generate the report but even if I add an empty parameter with no available values the reportviewer control is still blank.
This is the same in both Internet Explorer 8 and Firefox 5.
Any ideas where I'm going wrong?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
please check your report viewer property and make sure the parameter prompts property is true in your code
rvReportViewer.ShowParameterPrompts =
True

How to use LIKE function with a parameter in Oracle REPORT builder??

how could i use parameter inside a LIKE function in Oracle reports builder?
it works in SQL plus, but not in report builder!!
Example:
select code,desc from item_master where desc
like '%&give_desc%'; ---works in SQL
like '%:give_desc%' ---doesn't work in report builder!!

Hi Renil,
You will need to use the wildcard character (%) and the concatenation character (||) to join to your user parameter.
i.e. like '%'||:give_desc||'%'

Oracle forms is this possible?!?

hi, all.
I am a java developer and i am not familiar with oracle forms 10g.
Recently i had a project about digital signing of web forms(on java). So the idea was: We have applet that runs in the client browser, it uses the JSObject to collect all input fields and it's values from CUSTOM web form and create xml document, that must be signed. This applet is like a lib.
I must do the same thing with a oracle form.
Is this possible: collect the oracle form's items on the client??? The form is custom i.e. unspecified items and count items.
If this is possible the next step is to verify the signed xml on the server. So how does oracle forms work. Is there a server side. What is the architecture? Could the xml be passed to the server and how the oracle form's items must be accessed on the server(i need them to verify the xml).
I will be glad if you could help me soon.
Excuse me for my bad english :(.
Best regards.

What do you mean? :( As i said i am not very familiar with oracle forms.
Here is simple scenario of usage:
Oracle developer creates a oracle form. In some way i have to deliver for example jar. He adds it to to his project and in some way specifies that that jar signes his form.
The form is in module so i guess i have access to it.
What i learned for now is that there are VBeans that could help to do this(item collection). I found that this beans are graphical components too i.e. we can place awt Componets in them, but may be i don't need to use them. I read that the VBean is on the middle trier, but when i wirte JOptionPane.showMessage(..) it is displayed on the client i can't understand why. I need to collect the items in the form not in the bean.
The question is can i collect in some way the form's items on the client. Oracle form runs in some applet could this help me? Totally confused. The documentation for oracle forms is very unclear for me.
I forgot to say that there are some classes in the oracle forms lib like "RadioButtonItem", TextFieldItem and so on. Are theze coresponding to form items? May do some connection between them?!?

Need help on passing a parameter in Oracle report

Hello guys ...i Have a custom report which takes..TRX number and Org id as input Parameters.where TRX number is mandatory and ORg id is optional.
here is my question ..if i dont pass the org id,it should take the id of the Organization where i am running the report.how can this functionality achieved...
thanks....

Hi,
You can use NVL function in form, where you are passing the parameters. So replace the *:ORG_ID* with
NVL(:ORG_ID, :CUR_ORG_ID). Or If you are saving the current Org_id in a table / passing it to the report using another parameter, you can do the same in the report also.
Regards,
Manu.

How to define Lexical Parameter in Oracle report.

Dear all,
I need to know that how i will define lexical parameter in query of report builder
i have like this
SELECT R.EXCEPTION_MESSAGE EXP_MESSAGE,
ER.PROD_ID PRODUCT,
ER.TNAME SEGMENT1 ,
DECODE(R.STATUS,'Y','ROW',
'L','TABLE',
'Z','CIB LEVEL',
NULL) STATUS,
NVL(COUNT(*),0) CNT

AND ER.EXP LIKE '%'||R.EXCEPTION_MESSAGE||'%'
AND ER.BRWR=:v_brwr
&v_where
GROUP BY R.EXCEPTION_MESSAGE,ER.PROD_ID,ER.TNAME,R.STATUS
ORDER BY 2
It is giving an error

V_WHERE should be defined same way as regular parameter. It should acquire certain value that makes the query syntaxically correct bofore the sql is run, usually in the After Param Form trigger, e.g.
v_where := 'WHERE 1=1';

it said ora-00933 but my query can run i dont need the multiple values para, can anyone help me how to modify the report so it can pass multipel values thanks

HI I tried changing the parameter width to a larger value, it can output , and the field where I show the order_number i used source P_CONTRACT_NO,
it will display as 102005000,102005001 and I also tried using the column from the query directly, it will be separated , it has some other problem
I have the header part and main part,
and also there are page numbering, with the order number field set as order_number it will output single number , but the page order is wrong
102005000,102005001 will be like header page: 102005000 1/4 102005001 2/4, main page 102005000 3/4, 102005001 3/4
DO you have any idea how I can set the page numbering setting so it will output as header page:102005000 1/2 102005000 2/2
header page:102005001 1/2 102005001 2/2
?? thanks

Hierarchy Report - is this possible through Crystal Report???

Hello friends
We have a requirment as follow:
In Row : Hierarchy
In Column: Qty
we have 3 levels of hierarchy: level1 , level2 and level3
we want level1 in row and rest two levels in column along with qty
Row: :Level1
Col: Level2, Level3, Qty
please let me know whether its possible through Crystal Report or not,,,I tried out this in BEx (BW) but we cant do that

Hi Aloke,
This is possible,
Create a group on Level1
In Detail place Lavel2 ,Level3,Qty
You may insert totals if required.

Edited by: Alok Kashyap on Feb 2, 2009 9:03 AM

Hi Alok,
As I understand you want to set different levels of hierarchies for different Columns objects in the report.
BO doesnu2019t have the concept of Row and Column Level Hierarchy because when you select any value BO Select all values in column we canu2019t refer any single value in column and we canu2019t refer all related values as record thus Row level hierarchy is not possible.
You can use Custom Hierarchies to set different hierarchies for different objects.
Lets Say you Want Object in Column A to follow Level 1 include that object in Level1 Hierarchy.
Define Level 2, Level 3 Hierarchy and Include Object in Column 2 in those hierarchies thus Column 2 follows Level 2 and Level 3 Hierarchy.
When there is confusion about which Hierarchy Level to follow when at same level it asks user which way to go.
I Hope this Helpsu2026
Thanksu2026

Crystal Reports 2008 SP3 Additional parameter values are needed

I recently upgraded to Crystal Reports 2008 SP3, and now when I try an export a report from the Crystal Reports Designer, I get the error "Additional parameter values are needed before this report can be saved or viewed with data. Click 'Ok' to enter the missing values or 'Cancel' to proceed without data". I am trying to export the report to Crystal Reports format. The report is getting data from a MS SQL 2005 stored proc. I tried building a new simple report (just took all the fields in the result set and put them in the details section) using the same stored proc, and get the same error when I try to export.
FYI, before I try to export I always preview the data in the report, so the parameters are defiantly set correctly.
This was working correctly in Crystal Reports 2008 SP2.

Please re-post if this is still an issue or purchase a case and have a dedicated support engineer work with you directly:

Error deploying oracle report JSPs in Jdeveloper.

Hi,
I am trying to deploy and run a report created using oracle Report tool(comes with oracle 10g developer suite). I did the below steps.
1. I created a web layout report in oracle reports tool.
2. Open Jdeveloper (which comes in developer suite).
3. Create a new project in Jdeveloper. selected to create new "report component" from new. Copied my oracle report to this jsp page.(Report run time was automatically added to the libraries of the project created)
4. Run using embedded oc4j and report was successfully run.
5. Created a deployment profile for WAR. Created a war successfully. Then created an EAR.
6. Right click deployment profile and configured standalone oc4j connected(connection1). Tested the connection. The test connection was success.
7. Then right clicked the deployement profile and clicked deploy to connection1.
8. The EAR file was deployed but in the standalone OC4J, it is showing few errors.

Passing SQL-Parameters to Oracle-Reports from java

hello,
i want to write an application in the following way:
on a java-frontend an user can select values for different
parameters. these values should be to transferred to the sql-
query of the reports rdf file. what is the syntax of an
parameter passed from java to oracle reports.
does this work with runtime.exec()... ?
does anybody have an example.
any help would be very appreciated.
greetings
Thorsten Lorenz

In order to pass the parameters to report rdf, you can create user parameters in the oracle report builder, hook up the parameters with query. For example, you can create user parameter P_DEPTNO, then create a sql query: select * from dept where deptno = :P_DEPTNO. When you run this report, you give P_DEPTNO=10 as parameter, the rdf will generate report that only prints out department 10's information.
Once you have this kind of report created, you have several ways to achieve what you want.
1. use rwrun60. In your java program, you can invoke rwrun60 via runtime.exec(cmd) where cmd = rwrun60 report=dept.rdf userid=scott/tiger@orcl destype=file desformat=pdf desname=dept.pdf p_deptno=<value_from_java_app>
2. similarly, use rwcli60. the cmd would be:
cmd = rwcli60 server=repserver report=dept.rdf userid=scott/tiger@orcl destype=file desformat=pdf desname=dept.pdf p_deptno=<value_from_java_app>
3. use rwcgi60. Instead of using runtime.exec, you should use java URL object to run the report in the web environment.
option 2 & 3 takes advantage of powerful functionality of reports server, and it is much more scale than option 1.
