ALV report - control output format

Hello all,
I have an ALV report and when we try to print the output from List -> Print , we would see Format under properties. I would like to control this format from inside my program. How can we do this? I tried LINE-COUNT and LINE-SIZE additions already with the REPORT statement but did not work. Please share your thoughts. Thanks.

Hello,
Thanks for the info. One more thing before I close the ticket. I have a report output with 7 pages. Second page has 20 columns in it. When I use format X_65_255, all 20 columns on the page are not being displayed. When I used X_65_512, the remaining columns overflowed to next page but all other pages (pages 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7) have a blank page after them. Couple of quick questions.
1. How can we get rid of the blank pages?
2. Or is it possible to fit all columns from 2 page into just one page, may be reducing the font?
Please help. Thanks.

Hi Nirmal,
I have done the same in my previous organisation.For this particular solution you need to ask your basis guys to upgrade the support package so that BCS classes could be available in the system.
API interafces five some problem with attachemnts and SAP has recommended to use BCS classes.
Currently BCS classes won't be availbale in 4.7.
Once the BCS classes are available
use below code
   CONSTANTS:
    lc_tab          TYPE c VALUE cl_bcs_convert=>gc_tab,

Download alv report in excel format in Linux

Hi All,
I am working on SAP GUI for Java in Linux PC. I have installed
Open Office.
After executing an alv report there is no spreadsheet option
to download the report in excel format .
Also, when doing Save as Local File -> Spreadsheet ,
the report is not downloaded in proper format.
So, how to download the alv reports in excel format ?

Hi Vinod ,
Save as Local File -> Spreadsheet
It will ask for Directory and file name with .xls format . Give proper name e.g. test.xls and save, and after saving file right click on the file and click on Open with "OpenOffice.org calc".
It will definetly work.

Help on ALV GRID display outputting format for 2 internal tables

Hi,
    I have requirement in ALV GRID where I need to display the data from 2 internal tables. The first internal table has the content of Delivery due list data and second the internal table has the corresponding stock transfer data of the Delivery Due list. I have a checbox on my selection screen, when unchecked it should output the 1st internal table data, i.e for Delivery due list. When it is checked then it should output 1st Internal table data + 2nd internal table data of stock transfer. For example, 1 document delivery due list data and 2nd line for that document should show the stock transfer data. You can also check the transaction code VL10E for that will show a delivery due list...and for stock tranfer,you need to check with Purchase order in in the USer Role tabstrip. Pls suggest.
Regards,
Mira

APEX BIP report query output format - not able to set with a variable

I have a Named Columns (RTF) report that is working great, but I can't control the output format with a variable. I can set the "Output Format" in the Report Query Attributes, but it doesn't work when I set the report output format to "Derive from item". No matter what the item contains, I always get PDF output. I can see the variable in my session, but it doesn't control the output format. I have tried using the values "xml", "XML", "rtf", and "RTF".
Any help would be appreciated...

My guess is that an exception is being thrown for some rows. Since you've stubbed out your catch phrase to do nothing you're not going to have any visibility into what exception was thrown. You need to put some kind of logging in the catch phrase to see
what is happening.

Enhancement Req (v4.0): Report Query- Output Format- Derive from Item

Brief Introduction
I have 1 major request I would like to make (and 2 lesser ones). The first, I would like to specify custom available output formats for 'Report Query' objects, as well as Reports Regions, Interactive Reports, etc. I believe that this could easily be an instance setting in the Report Server region of the internal workspace, or per workspace / application. Even if not supported on the system wide level, I would recommend that the "Derived from Item" output format "Return Value" be allowed to be returned unaltered to the Report Server. I know that the type is returned as "_xf", and for my purposes I would REALLY like to be able to get something other than the defaults.
Use Case
I am creating a custom JasperReports integration (for which I will be launching a public SaaS beta extremely soon). It uses the standard Apex reporting objects (Queries, Layouts, Print Buttons, etc). JasperReports templates are uploaded as Report Layouts and everything works fine. I am, however, wanting to implement as many output formats as are available to me in Jasper...that means Word 07, Excel 07, ODS, ODT, etc. For the items that take a print server override I can handle this in other ways (even though this appears broken [see below]), but for the standard report queries this isn't available. I would basically like the option to define the set of available output formats for the report server, and what the "_xf" returned for each one is.
Minor Requests
- Replace Uploaded Templates: If a template is used often and updated, then it has to be changed everywhere...minor irritation.
- Customize Report Server URL for the Workspace or Application: For SaaS instances, workspace developers may license or have access to reporting solutions that are not (and should not be) available to all of the Oracle instance's workspaces, or may conflict with a service that is already provided by the instance administrators.
Broken
When I use the print server override, with the "Use Headers From" option, it appears that neither my content type, nor my content disposition headers are being sent back to the client. This is the work around solution for the non-standard types issue I am requesting enhancement on, so I would like to know what I can do to get this working immediately.
Additional Info
As it stands, if the site is available, feel free to sign up for the beta. The beta keys will be exported soon to the instance and made available. Instructions on setup will also follow:

Hi, please did you get any solution to this issue? I am having similar challenge right now.
select     EMP.DEPTNO as DEPTNO,
     DEPT.DNAME as DNAME,
     EMP.EMPNO as EMPNO,
     EMP.ENAME as ENAME,
     EMP.JOB as JOB,
     EMP.MGR as MGR,
     EMP.HIREDATE as HIREDATE,
     EMP.SAL as SAL
from     SCOTT.DEPT DEPT,
     SCOTT.EMP EMP
where EMP.DEPTNO=DEPT.DEPTNO
and      DEPT.DNAME =upper(:dname)
This run perfectly in sql developer, toad, and even inside publisher if I login directly to publisher to create report.
Generating this same query in shared component query builder and testing it returns no data found. If I remove the last line, it works. but with the last line, it return no data found. It seems no one has been able to provide solution to this issue

Run a report as output format "MS Word" under Crystal Report Server 11 R2

May I confirm any patches I can download to fix the problem ?
The problem is if I set the output format as MS Word 2003/2007 instead of crystal report when "Schedule" a report in Crystal Report Server. I found a problem all reports cannot be show on the browser (with error message "Error on page." at the bottom of browser). I need quit the infoview and login again.
Thanks for your kindly help

Hello Wallace,
I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Enterprise Administration|BI Platform; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to administration and configuration of BusinessObjects Enterprise, BusinessObjects Edge, and Crystal Reports Server.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all BOE Administration queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
Best regards,
Falk

Interactive Report Control Break Formatting

Hi All,
We have a report that is having control break by 2 or 3 columns.
The break lines are showing as below.
Domain Name : Academic Training, Job Title : Assistant Registrar, Standard
Course Title : Top in Ling & Cultr
The title should be shown in a single line, but actually it is showing with word wrapping as above.
Can we have set the word wrapping off for the control break titles. Also, there is a null values for the columns that are used for control break, the report is showing like Domain Name : Academic Training, Job Title :, Standard
Course Title : Top in Ling & Cultr
This also should be without two consecutive comma (separator). Can we change this?
Advance thanks for your help.
Nattu

Hi,
For word warp problem, try add to page HTML header
<style>
.apexir_REPEAT_HEADING{white-space:nowrap!important}
</style>Br,Jari

"Something" has to do the conversion to excel, it will not work without programming.
If you display a grid the data is sent via OLE to the frontend where excel is started and displaying the data. If you run a program in the background there is no terminal connection and hence no excel and hence no conversion.
What you can do is that you display the data as raw data and send it as attachment - but then people need to import and convert themselves.

Scheduling a report with output (excel) to file location

Able to schedule a webi report and output format to excel and destination to file location.
Report is running at scheduled time/interval and writing the output excel file onto file location on BO server. The issue is, its creating the file extension in uppercase (ex: testfile.XLS). Is there a way to control the file extension to be lowercase.
Also tried to force "testfile.xls" (with extension in lowercase) in the instance title of report scheduler but still creating extension with uppercase (ex: testfile.XLS).
Any pointers ??
Environment - BO XIR3.1

Hi,
I believe you can do this by switching the view to Excel and turning off the use job server defaults. You can then enter the name and extension as well as the destination folder.
