Adding button in report to store report on server

hi,
i dont know whether this is the appropriate place to ask this question.. but
i have the requirement to send data from a report to another instance.
basically what the users want is to run a report.. check the outcome, if its ok, then send the data to the other system.
this does not have to be high tech.. the file can be stored on the server in a certain format. (so not the users PC)
i was thinking of a button in the report which would save the file automatically as CSV on that specific location under a specific name.
has anyone done that before..
is it do-able?? in Web also?
or are there other alternatives
grtz
rogier

pete,
thank you for your fast reply..
it is not exactly what i am looking for.
the file has to be saved as a CSV
and the file has to be saved in a folder on the server so, not the workbookfolders
But a method, for example to, to, from the report, trigger a processchain to run the query again and save the outcome on the server would also be ok. if anyone has any suggestions?

Store reports in client m/c using destype=localFile in rwservlet

Hi,
i am trying to store the reports in client machine using rwservlet(http://<<report server name>>:7777/reports/rwservlet). i gave the destype as localFile. but in screen displays a msg : "Oracle Job Status" as some number. i cannot able to trace what is the reason for this problem. If any one knows to generate reports and store that in client side using rwservlet, let me know. i badly require solution for this. Thanks in advance.
regards,
srini

Hi,
The job status is to indicate the process of the job, it was run ok you can go to the location specified in the URL to look for the report. I assume that you also have a report's name in the URL too.
The problrm is it cannot save to the local machine. IF you specified a location that is not on the server then you would have gotten an error saying that the device is not ready, cannot send output... If you specified a drive that is similar to the server then the output went to the server, for example, you put c:\ then the report went to C:\ on the server, or if you put c:\mydir but that directory does not exist on the server then you would have gotten the error.
All above applies to running the report outside the form and in the 9i environment, using the browser and providing the URL. Now, in the URL, for IE only, if you don't add &desname=.... part then YOU WILL GET THE SAVE AS DIALOG then you CAN SAVE to the local machine. The problem is if you save it as a PDF file then you won't be able to open it (you will see an error), somehow it did not close the file at the end of the save properly; if you save it as a RTF file then you can open it with any text editor just that the layout is messed up.
Now, if calling from the form the report will go the location on the server as before, but it also brings up on the screen and you can save it locally using the SAVE button of the editor.
Below is my url when running from browser:
http://igoracledba:7777/reports/rwservlet?report=f:\9ifiles\sirc_case_report.rep&userid=hotline/hotline@desgnr9i&server=report9i&destype=localfile&desformat=pdf&desname=c:\myreport.pdf -- will save to c:\ on server (this is also used in the WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT in the form).
http://igoracledba:8888/reports/rwservlet?report=f:\9ifiles\sirc_case_report.rep&userid=hotline/hotline@desgnr9i&server=report9i&destype=localfile&desformat=pdf -- will get the Save dialog
And that's what I 've been getting my project during the testing of the 9iDS suites.
Good luck.

ALV . How to remove the sort buttons on toolbar in ALV report?

Hi,experts
As you know, in default case , the alv report will display two sort buttons(ascending ,descending) on its toolbar , So How to remove the sort buttons on toolbar in ALV report?
Thanks for your help .

Hi guixin,
1. Before calling REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY
2. Write this code :
data : excl type SLIS_T_EXTAB.
data : exclwa type SLIS_EXTAB.
exclwa = '&OUP'.
append exclwa to excl.
exclwa = '&ODN'.
append exclwa to excl.
3. Then while calling the FM,
pass this parameter also .
IT_EXCLUDING = excl
It will work fantastic.

App store reports Pinball HD and 11 other apps cannot be purchased at this time.....

App store reports "Pinball HD and 11 other apps cannot be purchased at this time"..... This occurs whenever I log into the app store. I have already purchased this app (and presumably the 11 others as well). I believe this started when it showed up as an app I should update (for free).
My wife and I share this iPad and we have apps purchased under two different store accounts on this machine. I have tried to log off and sign in with her account and then check updates but with either account I am told that all apps are up to date. All of our credit card info is current. Any clues?

Already on Automatic..... :(
This is an iPad 1 - I've had it since it first came out (ordered directly from Apple). Lots of apps and purchases over the years. My wife got her own WiFi only iPad shortly after mine as she fell in love with it and I don't share well. ;) This only started about 7-10 days ago. I did not update to iOs 5.1 until last night so this predates that. My concern is that when the iPad 3 arrives next Friday that this will transfer over.
Ever since my wife received her own iPad our purchases are pretty much separate.

'Save layout' button missing in the ALV report layout screen

Hi Friends,
 In one of our ALV report the 'save layout' button is missing in the report output screen.i have used the OO concept for creating the ALV output and not the function module.I have attached the code below used for creating the ALV grid.
CREATE OBJECT alv_grid
 EXPORTING i_parent = g_container_2.
CALL METHOD alv_grid->set_table_for_first_display
 exporting
 i_structure_name = 'PA0002'
 is_layout =
 CHANGING
 it_outtab = gt_outtab
 it_fieldcatalog = wa_fieldcat.
But i'm not able to trace why the 'save layout' button is missing in the output.Can anyone of you help me in sorting out this problem.
Thanks and Regards,
Vadivel.

Pass A to I_SAVE parameter. That will give the options to the user to save the layout outs.
I_SAVE = SPACE
Layouts cannot be saved.
I_SAVE = 'U'
Only user-defined layouts can be saved.
I_SAVE = 'X'
Only global layouts can be saved.
I_SAVE = 'A'
Both user-defined and global layouts can be saved.

Ravi

Store report output to blob column

Hi,
I would like to know whether it is possible to execute a report built using Report 10G and store its output, e.g. PDF content, onto a blob column of a table directly? If it's possible, could anyone show me an example in achieving it. Thank you.
Regards,
John

Navneet,
Thanks for the sample. I've tried setting up this custom destination and I get the following error when trying to run a report.
REP-50125: Caught exception: java.lang.NullPointerException
The URL that I am using is as follows:
http://server_name:port/reports/rwservlet?report=report_name.rdf&userid=username/password@tnsname_entry&destype=BLOBdestination&desformat=PDF&DESNAME=http://username/password@host_name:port/instance/table_name/document_column_name/primary_key_column_name/10/report_desc_column_name
Any ideas on what I've done wrong?

also I look for data related in RDW database, and some of it appears. Now I don't have no idea what cause the problem, neither its implications. I write you to know if something similar happened to any of you, and If you any idea of it
Edited by: luisurea on 27-jul-2011 14:46

luisurea: I'm not sure that the itemfile and vatfile records you indicate are being produced by RETL DWI batch code such as slsildmex.ksh. I assume you're running version 13 of DWI/RDW? What matters to RDW is that every row from the incoming RDWT file which slsildmex.ksh consumes, is output to slsildmdm.txt file, and that every row from slsildmdm.txt file is consumed and properly loaded to RDW target table sls_item_lm_dm table. DWI modules like slsildmex.ksh do have reject processing, for instance if an RMS.ITEM_LOC_SOH/ITEM_LOC record is not found for data in the RDWT file. In that case, the batch log and error (rfx/log and rfx/error) output of the run of slsildmex.ksh should have noted such a reject. I'm wondering if your itemfile and vatfile are artifacts of an RMS batch process such as posupld. If you're doing proper data validation from the RDWT file, to slsildmdm.txt file, to SLS_ITEM_LM_DM table in RDW, and the F_SLS_AMT (i.e. retail value) facts match how you have RMS/ReSA configured, then your sales integration to RDW is fine... and thsoe files might be more related to RMS sales uploading. Hope that helps,

Any suggestions regarding this would be of great help.
Thanks in advance

Hmm, not sure about stored procedures, but you can get SQL queries to work like below....
@method to get ResultSet from SQL query with user, pwd, and dbConnectionInfo
@param query, scrollType, user, password, dbName, db
@throws SQLException
@throws ClassNotFoundException
         private static ResultSet getResultSetQueryDBInfo(String query, int scrollType, String user, String password, String dbName, String db)
         throws SQLException, ClassNotFoundException
              String DBUSERNAME = user;
              final String DBPASSWORD = password;
              final String CONNECTION_URL = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@" + dbName + ":1521:" + db;
              Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection(CONNECTION_URL, DBUSERNAME, DBPASSWORD);
              DatabaseMetaData meta = connection.getMetaData();
              System.out.println("getResultSetQueryDBInfo - Connected to URL : " + meta.getURL());
              System.out.printf("getResultSetQueryDBInfo - as user: %s\n", meta.getUserName() );
              Statement statement = connection.createStatement(scrollType, ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
              System.out.println("getResultSetQueryDBInfo method - executing query: \n");
              return statement.executeQuery(query);

Where to store Reports on Unix

Hello,
where to store Reports in HPUX system, means in which directory....
regards,
JAK

Hi Jak,
You can define your own reports_path variable.
If you know unix a little make a search for the REPORTS_PATH in your <oracle_home>/bin directory.
I think it is in reports.sh
put there the directory you want. eg /applications/reports:$REPORTS_PATH
or you can add a named environment in your reports server engine
this is the <reports>.conf file in your <oracle_home>/reports/conf/ directory
eg
<environment id="Dev">
<envVariable name="REPORTS_PATH" value="/applications/reports"/>
</environment>
hope it helps

Enable Refresh Button/Menu in the Generated Report

Dear Experts,
I have created a program that generates report based on the user defined parameters.
My question is, how do I enable the Refresh button/menu in the generated report so that user
won't have to back to the parameter screen and re-execute?
Thanks.
Kath

How is the output shown on the screen ?
With Write statements it won't be possible, but with an ALV it is. You need to add a button to the application toolbar, usually it is present in the standard PF-STATUS, but if not then simply add one.
Now when you capture the user command in the subroutine for handling user commands which looks like this,
FORM user_command USING r_ucomm LIKE sy-ucomm
rs_selfield TYPE slis_selfield.
Follow these steps
1. Refresh the output table that you have passed to the ALV.
2. Fetch all the data again and populate the output table.
3. Set the rs_selfield-refresh = 'X'. , this structure is passed to the user_command subroutine as shown above.

Advait
