ApexLib Question: SQL Reports

Just wondering but is there a way to achieve the same type of functionality that ApexLib has for cascading select lists where a sql report is slaved to the cascading select lists? Example, when the cascading select lists are updated by ApexLib have it refresh a report as well.

I think this is the wrong forum for such a question. The Database - General (General Database Discussions might be better suited. Or maybe the RMAN forum (Recovery Manager (RMAN)

SQL Report Region

Hi,
I am using apex 4.0.1 and I have a page with several SQL Report regions. The user can edit the data in the report regions by clicking a column that uses a href link to open a DML page in a modal window. The user can then amend some data in the modal window, press save which closes the modal window and uses the partial page refresh process to refresh the SQL report region. (Using apex.event.trigger('#SOME_REGION'),'apexrefresh')).
If I navigate through the report to show rows 31-45 and then click on a href to edit a record. On pressing save, the report is refreshed but the rows displayed goes back to 1-15.
How can I get the report to stay showing the rows 31-45?
Cheers
Paul.

I believe this answers my question

Workflows 2013 and SQL Report Services: Configure on Independent Servers or Existing App Servers?

Currently, my SharePoint 2013 Farm has Workflows 2013 and SQL Report Services installed on app servers, along with other applications. Workflows 2013 isn't working correctly (installed prior to my coming on board with the organization), I'm assuming it
is a configuration issue, but rather than re-configure, I've read that is recommended to be a standalone server. It was also recommended by a MSFT rep that our report services have its own independent server. Currently, Report Services is also installed on
an app server that runs other applications on the farm.
Has anyone had any experience with installing Workflows 2013 and/or SQL Report Services on independent vs. existing application servers?
Additionally, my existing application servers have 24 GB of RAM (I believe the recommendation for SharePoint production environments is 12 GB), should I plan for the potentially new servers (Workflows and Report Services) to also have 24 GB of RAM? Not really
sure if it will be needed if they have dedicated tasks.
Thanks for any input you can provide!

It entirely depends on load. WFM will work just fine installed on servers in the SharePoint farm. SSRS preferably should go on the end-user facing servers for better performance.
The questions you're asking are all "it depends" :)

SQL report link to another report

Hello,
I am using Apex 4 and trying to link an sql report with another report. If I were able to use an interactive report I could easily link that to another page, but that would require me to have a primary key. The problem is that I need to link a few tables. So two questions:
1.) Can I link these via an HTML link to my other page? I would have a HTML link in my report that would link via URL parameter passing. So can I use HTML in a report?
2.) What is the syntax for a parameter passing via URL? Here is my link that would be:
a href= f?p=107:40:&APP_SESSION::::P40_NAME:MARK: Are there any other ways to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Mark

I am using Apex 4 and trying to link an sql report with another report. If I were able to use an interactive report I could easily link that to another page
It's easy in standard reports< /a>. (Ignore the "Interactive Report" typo in step 1.)
1.) Can I link these via an HTML link to my other page? I would have a HTML link in my report that would link via URL parameter passing. So can I use HTML in a report?You can, but it's better practice to keep data retrieval and HTML structure separate when possible—in this case by using declarative Column Links.
2.) What is the syntax for a parameter passing via URL?This is also covered in the documentation.
Here is my link that would be: a href= f?p=107:40:&APP_SESSION::::P40_NAME:MARK:
{quote}
That looks to have the order of the parameters correct, but it's missing some syntax:<a href="f?p=107:40:&APP_SESSION.::::P40_NAME:MARK">...</a>
The static text exact substitution method of referencing the value of an APEX item requires a terminating dot ("."): <tt>&APP_SESSION.</tt>

Cell Padding in SQL Report Region

I have what I hope is a simple question.
I have a SQL Report region and I want to add more padding to the left and right sides of the table cell. I don't want to change the style sheet because I don't want to affect other pages. But I tried adding style attributes on the "Region HTML table cell attributes" field but I still can't get it to work.
Can anyone give me an example of how I can do this?

I have what I hope is a simple question.

"The table cell"? A single, specific cell within the report? All cells in a specific column or row? All cells in this report? Or do you mean padding around the entire report table?
I don't want to change the style sheet because I don't want to affect other pages.
Create a page-specific style sheet using the Inline page CSS attribute (in 4.2) or a style element in the page HTML Header (previous versions).

Converting SQL Report Region to PLSQL Function Body Returning SQL Query

All:
I want to convert my SQL Report Region to a PLSQL-generated SQL Report Region so that I can eliminate where clauses dynamically and speed up my app, and also so that I can provide additional sorting options.
<br><br>
My problem is that I have lots of embedded single quotes that already are coded as 3 single quotes in the SQL Report Region. I am not sure at all how to code them within the PLSQL.
<br><br>
As example, here is one column from my query:
<br><br>
select decode(nvl(g.date_sub_1,g.date_rec_1), null, decode(g.article, 0, 'E', 1, 'U'), '< a href="javascript:unElevate( ' ' ' || g.grid || ' ' ',' ' ' || g.natca || ' ' ')">' || decode(g.article, 0, 'E', 1, 'U') || '< /a>') "Reverse" from g_table g
<br><br>
(Note that I added spaces within the code so it would display properly in the browser.)
<br><br>
To clarify, that's a double quote before javascript, and then 3 single quotes before the first concatenation group, then 3 single quotes after the second concatenation group, then 3 single quotes before the third, 3 single quotes after the fourth followed by an end-paren followed by a double quote etc.
<br><br>
My question is, what do I do with these triple-single quotes within PLSQL? Probably a no-brainer for the experienced folks, but I am thinking like a mobius strip at this point.

Scott,
I think that feature was made for my situation! I keep getting
Function returning SQL query: Query cannot be parsed within the Builder. If you believe your query is syntactically correct, check the generic columns checkbox below the region source to proceed without parsing.
(ORA-20001: Unable to bind :43 verify length of item is 30 bytes or less. Use v() syntax to reference items longer than 30 bytes. ORA-01006: bind variable does not exist)
I did chop the query up into little bits, i.e.
p_sql := p_sql || q'! ... !';
p_sql := p_sql || q'! ... !';
p_sql := p_sql || q'! ... !';
return p_sql;
But I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do here.
Thank you.
Bill

SQL Reports Bad Idea Against RMAN Catalog?

11.2.0.1 SPARC 64
We use OEM to manage/execute our backups. The MML is NetBackup. One downside to this is that the "job" within OEM executes the backup for 20+ databases. In a serial fashion the backups occur in NetBackup...but most are queued - they throttle through and over time they complete. To this end, we have no way of seeing the true backup duration. We know the rman start and completion times, but they're not "actual."
I started looking at creating a sql statement/report/[pl/sql] block that would give us the granular informatin on the true timings of the backup "pieces" as they relate to a "set."
Research out on the wire shows a number of high level solutions, but nothing to which a report shows the data files, etc. Usually when I see this I start to question..."hey, is this even a good approach?"
I do realize that through the RMAN utility there are a number of reports which are available...this post, however, is focused on the idea of sql reports against the rman catalog.
Any advice would be welcome.
Conceptual report:
-> INCREMENTAL LEVEL 0
--> BACKUP SET
---> BACKUP PIECE
----> HANDLE, TAG, DATAFILE, START, COMPLETION
I'm NOT looking for the sql...I can work that out, I just want to know if this is a smart approach or best to stay out of the catalog.

SQL Report--NEED to display HYPERLINK

Hi. I need to display a hyperlink for one of the columns in a SQL Report. Here are my columns url, name, type.
I want the name column to be hyperlinks to the corresponding entry in the url column.
Here's the sql that I was trying to get to work based on what someone else helped me with:
select type, ''| |name| |''web
from interop.links
Here is the results when I run the report:
<#''.LABEL#>
<#''.FIELD#>
<#''.FIELD#>
<#''.FIELD#>
<#''.FIELD#>
<#''.FIELD#> ...etc, etc.
Does anyone have suggestions for what I am doing wrong or another solution? I really need to figure out how to do this. Thanks!

Hi,
Here is what I understand from your question.
You have 3 columns
URL
NAME
TYPE
Say you have url=> www[dot]oracle[dot]com
name=>Uncle Larry is always right
you want name to have a href which points to
the value in column url
so you need
select url as the_url,''| |name| |'' as the_name,type from the table

3.1 Bug Report: "Enable Search" in Create SQL Report wizard

Hi,
when "Enable Search" is set to Yes in the "Create SQL Report" wizard, the label template of the page items is set to NULL, it should be "Optional Label" (the default of the theme).
The PX_ROWS page item is not referenced in the "Number of Rows (Item)" property of the report. That means the user can choose what he wants, it never gets used.
BTW, it would be useful to write the PX_ROWS into a user preference when the page gets submitted and based the source type on this preference.
Thanks for looking into it.

Can't create a new SQL Reporting Server

I am trying to create a new reporting server. I was able to create one earlier in the day but it was tied to the wrong subscription (not the one my databases were in).
So I tried to create another one attached to the right subscription and I am unable to I get the following error no matter what I put in for Username/password.

Thanks for your question. Unfortunately we are in the process of deprecating SQL Reporting services. Full details are available at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg430130.aspx

Add SQL reporting services to get Azure sql db data

Dear all,
I have read recently that SQL server reporting services as been remmoved from Azure services. I have a SQL server database on azure which collect different type of data which are collected from a web admin portal by my users.
I have a strong need to bring to that admin web portal a flexible reporting solution for my users to monitor collected data.
Of course I can bring dash board to web application but often it is painful to change web app when a user want different type of report.
What could be the way now to use online reporting service in orde to bring online report for my user of my sql azure database ?
regards
serge

Hi serge,
Based on my understanding, you want to use SQL Azure database to design the report, right?
As you mentioned,
Azure SQL Reporting is officially discontinued, so that we can’t design reports with Azure SQL Reporting. However, only the Azure cloud implementation of SQL Reporting is discontinued. All other forms of Reporting Services technology are unaffected. In
Reporting services, it’s supported connect to SQL Azure database. So in your scenario, you can connect to the SQL Azure database to design the report. For more information, please refer to this article:
How to connect to SQL Azure using SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 R2.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

SQL Reporting Services with Visual Studio 2012

Hi
I would like to know if there will be any release to improve on the placeholder feature in SQL reporting services. Currently, I have users who uses HTML editor to input data and tables. However, the table in html format cannot be read.
I do understand that currently the placeholder feature can only have limited html tag recognised. However, is there any plan to improve it so that <table> tag can also be recognise?
Or if there is any workaround to show the table format in the reports?
Sorry but this is urgent as it is used for business application.
Many thanks

Hi DotNeTEngineeR,
According to description, you want to display the content of table tag (<tag>) in a report. Right?
In Reporting Services, it only has the supported HTML Tags below:
Hyperlinks: <A HREF>
Fonts: <FONT>
Header, style and block elements: <H{n}>, <DIV>, <SPAN>,<P>, <DIV>, <LI>, <HN>
Text format: <B>, <I>, <U>, <S>
List handling: <OL>, <UL>, <LI>
For your requirement, we suggest you use <div> to replace <table> tags in your embedded HTML. Please see the article below:
Embedded HTML using <div> to replace <table> tags in ssrs 2008
Reference:
Importing HTML into a Report (Report Builder and SSRS)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best Regards,

Sql reporting services stops every 24 hours for a short time then restarts

I have noticed that recently in sccm 2012 sp1 the sql reporting services stops every morning at 7:58 am and restarts after a minute or two. The only entry in the event logs is when it stops. I don't see anything tied in with it that stops or
starts at the same time and there are no tasks or anything like that which would point to this time frame. I just thought I would throw this out there to see if anyone had any ideas. Usually with something of this nature there are some corresponding
log entries that go beyond the service stopping, but in this case there isn't. Thanks for any help you can provide.

I think I found out what was going on. I approached this from a different angle and was directed to the sql reporting services logs and found information on the reporting web server stopping. Researching that yielded the following information.
It appears that this is a result of the SSRS Web Server recycling the App Domain, which is supposed to be a pretty normal process. In fact, the configuration file for this process defaults to recycling the app domain twice daily. This lines up
with the time frame that the reporting service is stopping. It restarts it in less that two minutes and logs the recyling in the reporting services log twice daily so why I'm not seeing this entry in the event logs twice daily or even every day must
be a timing thing. I think if it takes an extra millisecond or two to recycle the app domain, it dumps an entry into the windows event logs and the sccm component status monitoring.

FIM Reporting installation (where to put SQL Reporting Services?)

Hi,
I'm installing FIM 2010 R2 SP1 with Reporting feature.
It is going to be installation with separate SQL and separate servers for SCSM DW and SCSM MS.
I have SQL where I prepared 3 instances (default one for FIM databases, one for SCSM SM databases, one for SCSM DW databases). My question is - which one of them should have SQL Reporting services installed?
Borys Majewski, Identity Management Solutions Architect (Blog: IDArchitect.NET)

When using SCSM 2012 (SP1) you also have to install the analytic services on the instances. I can't remember exactly if it was on the DW or MS, but it would tell you during the installation of it.
And make sure your FIM version is at leat 4.1.3451, I went through a lot of pain with version 4.1.3419 en the
KB256143 error.

Sharepoint SQL Reporting Services Add-In

Hi,
I have installed the Sharepoint SQL reporting services Add-in in one of my application servers and when I call the sites created from the application server itself they show the add-in feature in them in the "site features "list. But when I call
the same site from a WFE in the farm with no add-in installed the the site doesn't show the add-in feature in the "site Feature" list.
This is not supposed to happen as I have tried the same in another farm and the add-in was needed to be installed only in the application server and it would automatically be shown in sites even when they are called from a WFE or anywhere.

SSRS in SharePoint Integrated mode requires the installation of two components. SSRS in SharePoint Integrated mode only needs to be installed on one App server. But the SSRS SharePoint Add-in needs to be installed on all the WFEs and the app
server where SSRS in SharePoint Integrated mode is installed. Not sure how you got it to work in the other farm. Take a look at the following article:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh479775.aspx
You will note in the diagram that the Add-in is installed on each WFE.
