"All" option in page item in Discoverer viewer

In discoverer viewer , option "All" is added along with the other entires of Page item. in the drop down . But this "All" option is available only as the last entry of the drop down . Is there any way to dispaly "All" as first entry in the Drop down ?? Please help it is urgent

Short answer - I believe no, you cannot alter the location due to it's name (ie: <All> flows to the bottom).
Long answer (great bedtime reading to help you snooze!):
In the ol' days (read Desktop actually), people regularly wanted to have the <All> option for a table (not just a xtab) and there is a way of adding <All> to a LOV via the LOV concept in the Admin edition.
When I did this in LOVs, I think I remember that what you called the <All> made a difference in the placement.
For example, I think I remember that if I added .All, then it went to the top. If I added <All> then it went to the bottom.
So it sure sounds like the LOV is alphabetically displayed no matter what you try to do and the <All> flows to the bottom - or worse - potentially someone in the list. You could also try to add the .All method to a redirected LOV, but then you'd have 2 Alls I suspect (one at the top, one at the bottom).

ALL option in page item

hi,
in my worksheet, some page items have <all> option (it is added automatically), but some of them haven't.
i want to determine whether to show or not on MYSELF. How can i do it?
tnx.

Hi
You're not doing anything wrong. The option <All> is added to a page item when the worksheet is a Crosstab. However, when the worksheet is a Table there is no <All> option just a list of the actual values.
I agree with you that this is very annoying and frustrating and it has been this way ever since they added the <All> option. It is something that I wish Oracle would address before adding further new functionality.

ALL in page item

Hi,
I am trying to make ALL to appear as the default on page items (i.e., after rearranging crosstab layout, I want the users to see ALL appearing in page items before they select from LOV). Thanks for your help.

As you most likely know, Disco puts the <All> option in a LOV when you have a crosstab.
Also, when you are using a simple table, it does not put the <All> option in LOVs.
What I have done in the table version, is to create a LOV manually (via Disco Admin)
ie:
select 'North' dir from dual
union
select 'South' dir from dual
union
select 'West' dir from dual
union
select 'East' dir from dual
You can also create an <All> option using this method.
However, my users also wanted the <All> to be right at the top of the LOV, so I simply made sure it was called .<All> (ie: not the period first). This sorts to the top and they were happy.

Remove All from Page Item

Hi!
I 've a report that does't make sense to use a date with All in the Page Item.
Can anybody tell me how can I remove <All> from the page item.
Thanks a lot,
Leila

Hi Gianluca
You are right because I did not understand. Now I do and thanks for explaining otherwise I would have continued down that path for years. :-)
Ok, what you need to do is to create a new data type within your workbook, then more than likely in conjunction with one or more analytic functions, Discoverer will create the sub-totals and totals that you want.
Here is an example that may show the principle:
You can use calculations to create new data types within your worksheet. These new types only exist within the worksheet. You can apply sorts, totals and even base other calculations on these data types.
Example Data Type:
Let’s say we want to generate a new data type called Category, and this category has three values
     High
     Middle
     Low
We want to analyze our sales and work out our top ranking customers, such that customers with:
     Sales > 9,000,000 are High
     Sales > 4,000,000 but < 9,000,000 are Middle
     Sales < 4,000,000 are Low
Basic Requirement - Syntax:
IF Sales > 9,000,000
THEN HIGH
ELSE IF Sales > 4,000,000
THEN MIDDLE
ELSE LOW
Using a CASE statement, this translates into:
CASE WHEN Sales > 9,000,000 THEN ‘High’
WHEN Sales > 4,000,000 THEN ‘Middle’
ELSE ‘Low’
END
Here's an example using DECODE:
You have been asked to create a report that combines the sizes Small and Mini into a new category called Tiny so that we report
     Large
     Medium
     Tiny – combined Small and Mini
Basic Syntax:
IF Product Size = SMALL
THEN Type = TINY
ELSE IF Product Size = MINI
THEN Type = TINY
ELSE Type = Product Size
Using a DECODE statement this translates into:
DECODE (Size, ‘SMALL’, ‘TINY’, ‘MINI’, ‘TINY’, Size)

Report Refresh on selecting All from Page Item

Hi,
I have a report that has the academic years as one of the page items. If we select the first entry '2004 - 2005' and then select 'All' from the page item, the data doesn't refresh.
However if we go ahead and choose any other value, for example '2006-2007' or any other entry and then select 'All' the report does refresh normally.
I've tried to search if this is a known bug, but I was unable to find any information. If any of you can help in this regard, reference to a known bug or if there's a workaround, please do let me know.
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi
Do you get any errors messages?

'All' Page Items

I have a discover report that uses 'Page Items' and summarizes the results. I would like to include an All on my Page Items which would allow me to display all of the page items summarized together. Is this possible in Discover or do I need to use Oracle Reports or Forms?

in 4i, All is supported for Crosstabs. Pierre

Problem in displaying selected page items in the title in Graph

Hi There;
I have a problem in displaying selected value of named page item in the graphs.
Eg. I have in my worksheet a page item named "Location"; when I use "&WorksheetName &Location" in the title of worksheet it is displaying both the worksheet title and value of selected page item "Location" in my example.
But when I use the same (&WorksheetName &Location) in the title of graph or Axis of the graph, it would show up only the name of the worksheet but not the value of page item "Location", instead it would print "&Location"
Any idea why it is not able to reference the select page item in Discoverer graph? I am using Oracle BI Discoverer 10.1.2.1.
Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
Nidhi Jethoo

Hi Michael;
Thanks a lot. It might not have been considered necessary but you do require, e.g in my case I am plotting Average value of a Parameter and it does make sense in including the name/value of Parameter(surface water temp/bottom watter temp) as an Axis instead of just a constant Parameter or say Average Parameter. So that user can plot the variation of different parameters by changing the page items and when user changes the value of parameter and export the graph he/she has the parameter name(actual value) in the graph.
But I can include all the parameters (&Parameters) or all the page items(using &PageItems) in graph then why not individual page-item and individual parameter.
I would log a SR and see what they say.
Thanks again,
Nidhi

[CS3 JS] Getting a page item by its script label

I have a text frame on a master page with its script label set. In my script, I am trying to get a reference to the text frame with this:
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var spread = doc.masterSpreads[0];
var tabFrame = spread.allPageItems.item("TabLeft");
I get the error "spread.allPageItems.item is not a function"
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
Rick

Hi Rick,
spread.allPageItems returns a flattened array of all of the page items in the spread, at any level of the hierarchy (i.e., inside groups and other page items). Is that what you want? Sadly, allPageItems does not benefit from the special case where we use the label as a name, so you'll have to iterate if that's what you want.
As Peter says (thanks, Peter!), spread.pageItems.item("label") gives you all of the page items whose label matches the string, but it does so in sort of a weird way--you'll always get a page item object. If no page items match, you get an invalid page item; if one matched, you get a single page item, and if multiple page items matched, you get a page item object that actually contains multiple page items. It can take a little testing to figure out exactly what it is that was returned.
Thanks,
Ole

Serious issue in discoverer viewer

Dear all,
I have serious issue with discoverer viewer 9.0.2.53 version.
I am in need of displaying lengthy worksheet in discoverer viewer,i am using crosstab format.
my client wants to compare the datapoint value of worksheet with leftside drillup/down and top drill up/down values.
I want the assumption of "display similar to desktop display of worksheet"..is it possible to have same type of format or alternative one by customizing viewer?
Plz help me out of this..if viewer does not support this issue i think..its not best suited for report making..
plz somebody confirm about this issue..its very urgent to proceed further...
regards
chandra

Already checked that. I don't think the problem is color profile related.
Besides, when I reset the viewer as described above the colors look perfectly fine.

Link to a page item

Hi Friends,
I have a three page item which is in display only manner........
These are the three page items,
*) Business Trip Request
*) Salary Certificate Request
*) Business Card Request
For these three items, i have given(in this case i have show this only for business trip, the same way as for the other two items)
*source used* : (sql query returns a single row)
*source value or expression*: select count(*) from business_trip where employee_number=:APP_USER;so, obviously soon after login into the application,
All these three page items will show Number of transactions that individual user requested in business trip, salary certificate, business card...
But my requirement, in the sense soon after the user logsin it has to show the requested raised by individual user on each:
Suppose, if the value is like that(assume)
*) No of transactions in business trip------->3..
If i clicked on the top of the "NO OF TRANSACTIONS IN BUSINESS TRIP", it has to show all the three request of the transactions done by him for the business trip.
The same way for the salary and business card, if i clicked on the top of the label of those means, it has to fetch the request of their reports raised on each.....
I think i need to achieve it by links, i dont know how to proceed...
Since i can able to get the report of the individual users on each request.....
But i need that report to be showed by clicking the heading of it(for example: "NO. OF TRANSACTIONS IN BUSINESS TRIP": 3)
Thanks,
Regards,
Vel Rs

I didn not mean to change the affected element.
If you want the event to be triggered on click of the label, you must use the label as the triggering element.
Event: click
selection type: jquery selector
jquery selector: *label[for="P2_BUSINESS_TRIP_REQUEST"]*
condition: No condition
True Action:
Action: execute javascript code
fire on page load: unchecked
fire when event result is :true
redirect('f?p=&APP_ID.:3:&SESSION.:');Affected elements: none
it is possible to show the item like in the link manner (i.eIf its a link , then you don't need any dynamic action
For that you can change the item to hidden
and _add the HTML code for the link in post element text
If you want everything to look like a link ,either hide all the items and use their values in the region's HTML code or generate the HTML code using a PLSQL dynamic region. Then you can generate the content the way you want.

Data not fetching in Discoverer Viewer

Hi All,
I ran a report in discoverer viewer, but i'm not able to get any data. So i ran the same report with same parameter in Discoverer Desktop, there i'm getting data.
Please suggest me in this issue.
Thanks,
Bopty

Hi,
There are many reasons why Desktop may return different rows from Viewer and Plus even when the same user and report are used.
The most common reasons are:
1. There are 2 EULs in the database and the default EUL for Desktop is different than viewer.
2. The NLS parameters such as language are different. Disco Desktop language is defaulted to the language set for the PC and so may be different to viewer.
3. The preferences set in the registry are different from the preferences set for Viewer/plus. These can control what SQL is used by Discoverer and hence cause different results.
You may need to check the SQL being run in the database sessions used by Desktop and Viewer and see if there is any differences in the SQL. You can also trace the database sessions for Desktop and Viewer and see why the different results are returned.

Scheduling Workbooks on Discoverer Viewer.

Hello guys
I know you can schedule workbooks in Discoverer 10g Plus, but can you do this in Viewer? If not, then does this mean that we must give all our users Discoverer Plus so that they can schedule their own workbooks? Users used to schedule their own workbooks on Discoverer 4i. Now we are upgrading to 10g and we wanted to give them Viewer access. How do they schedule workbooks in Viewer?
Thank for all your help..

Hi,
In Discoverer viewer you cannot schedule reports though you can retrieve reports that have been scheduled.
Users that have access to Viewer will also be able to access Plus by entering a Discoverer Plus URL. The users privileges are stored in the EUL and determine what features the Discoverer user can access, not which tool they can use. So if the user has read-only access to the workbooks in Viewer then they will also have read-only access in Plus.

Removing all option in discovere desktop page item

Hi,
I want to remove the all option which appears in the oracle discovere desktop and oracle discoevere plus under the page item which you create a cross tab report.
I am creating a cross table report in that i have a date in the page item it shows the <all> option also in the drop down of the page item. I do not want it to come there . how do i remove it from that place.
Thanks

Unfortunately you can't remove the <all> option from the page-items in a cross-tab. The only solution is creating a table-layout instead.
