Assistance with Sawmill Custom Reports

After successfully implementing a pair of S650 WSAs, I am now being asked by our management for various reports. I have produced a number of custom Sawmill reports which provide most of the information needed, but I am having trouble trying to produce one report. The requirement is to show a breakdown of sites vsisited for each user, including the time spent, by month, such as in this example:
Name
Date
Website
Time spent
Total per month

I have looked at using a Report Element of "Table with Sub-table" and, while this would work for sessions/hits, it won't show the time fields as these only appear to be available in the "Sessions" report elements. Any help or advice on how to accomplish this task would be greatly appreicated.
Regards,
Kev

Thanks for the advice Tim, I can now stop spending time trying to generate an impossible report. I will just have to use the "Time by Server" report and filter it for a single user, although with over 600 people in our company, I will need to pick specific targets rather than produce reports covering everyone!

Assistance with Powershell custom attribute population

I'm currently undertaking an exchange 2003 to exchange 2010 migration and as part of this am having to redesign the email address policies. Our legacy recipient policies have worked well by targeting exchange alias but in 2010 this won't work.
We have a number of exchange domains and in order to update the email addresses for a group of users we have decided to use custom attribute 15 to target these AD groups, however updating this manually for over 2000 users would prove very time consuming.
Exchange 2010 seems to be geared towards powershell and as it's still early days in my knowledge am looking for assistance.
Does anyone know a powershell command I can run to update custom attribute 15 for users of a specific security group?
Many Thanks

I am no exchange expert but also not sure what you mean by custom attribute 15. Since you want to update "users" in a specific "group" I assume this will be in Active Directory?
If so, you can use the AD cmdlets to get the job done. On a machine that has AD users and computers installed you can do something like this:
Import-Module ActiveDirectory
Get-ADGroupMember -Identity groupName | ForEach-Object{
Set-ADUser -Identity $_ -Replace @{customeAttributeName = "Replacement"}
This hasn't been tested as I do not have an environment to test in, and not sure on the custom attribute name or what needs to be replaced with, so you will need to replace groupName with the group in question, customAttributeName with the correct name and
"Replacement" with what you are replacing.
If you find that my post has answered your question, please mark it as the answer. If you find my post to be helpful in anyway, please click vote as helpful.

Assistance with an online report

Hey everyone,
I've developed a reporting application, but can't get the
display to work. What I want it to do is display the results, based
off the name (as it does now), but in ONE row. For example,
currently "Connectivity" displays twice. Once for September, once
for October. I want it to display once with September and October
on the same line.
How can I accomplish that?
Thanks for any/all assistance you can provide!
Here's what I've got right now:

Thanks for the responses so far. I'll try to clarify what I'm
looking for.
This is what I want it to do:

Note that the subjectIDName is never repeated, but the
records (count, per month) are on one line.
If I do a GROUP on the CFOUTPUT, then it displays one
subjectidname, but does NOT move the second (or any after) to that
same line.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have 2 questions for help in regards to the above script:
1) For the Login and Service Account portion I can't get my output to show up properly. Here is the snip from the script:
#Login & Service Account Information#SQL Host Information
$smo = new-object ('Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server') $computername
$fragments += "<h3>Login & Service Account Information</h3>"
$fragments += $smo | select ServiceAccount, Logins | ConvertTo-HTML -Fragment
Here is how the output shows for this portion:
ServiceAccount
Logins
domain\svcAcct
             Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.LoginCollection
I would like top have the login information show in the above table of the all the different logins. When I run the script without HTML for that portion and just output to console it shows the login info as I would expect.
2) The 2nd question is, how do I add a variable to the bottom of the script to email the report to said email address. This is probably simple but can't get my head wrapped around this part.
Thanks all in advance!

Thanks AnnaWY, that resolved the portion on how to email the report. I was also able to utilize the following code which does the same thing as well:
#Send an email with the contents of the report
$MailBody= Get-Content $path
$MailSubject= "SQL Server Report"
$SmtpClient = New-Object system.net.mail.smtpClient
$SmtpClient.host = "smtp.server.com"
$MailMessage = New-Object system.net.mail.mailmessage
$MailMessage.from = "[email protected]"
$MailMessage.To.add("[email protected]")
$MailMessage.Subject = $MailSubject
$MailMessage.IsBodyHtml = 1
$MailMessage.Body = $MailBody
$SmtpClient.Send($MailMessage)
I still have not been able to resolve the portion regarding the login/service account information not showing up in the table correctly. For the time being I have removed it from the environment report and instead included it as a script of its own
in our Security Auditing process.

Current Header Rows from FBL5N in custom report

Hi,
If you go to transaction FBL5N into settings -> Layout -> Current Header Rows, you're able to change the header outputs at the top of each ALV List. I'm trying to do the same with my custom report, but when I go to settings -> Layout, I dont have the option to choose current header rows. How can I add this feature to my custom program?
Thanks in advance,

Custom Report Template Issue

Hi,
I have a Custom Report Template, it is a Named Column(Row) Report that I have created. It seems I can get the look and feel I want on a per row basis. But when I try and convert it to be able to loop through for a specific type, like a break on the first column, it gets all messed up.

Thanks for the input! Yeah it is based on a query from a collection as all this data is summations that i am pre-populating.
Yes this html is probably from 1998 or 1999 I think they told me actually lol
So there is no way to accomplish what I am trying to do then?
There is no way I could use a break on first column and modify the header info to get the same sort of look and feel?Still not really clear what you are trying to accomplish, and in my view there are so many problems with the "look and feel" that it's not worth perpetuating.
Making a lot of assumptions, I've come up with the kind of HTML structure I'd use when marking up this kind of data. I added a page 2 to your example on apex.oracle.com, showing a basic presentation of this structure alongside the original for comparison, and another styled using the default theme L&F.
<li>Given the requirement to use multi-level headers (and because I prefer to have total control over the HTML), I stayed with a custom report template rather than trying to utilise column breaking with a generic column report template. This also permits use of more advanced table structures than can be supported by standard templates, such as s<tt>colgroup</tt>s to organize the table columns as well as the rows:
Before Rows
<table cellpadding="0" border="0" cellspacing="0" summary="" #REPORT_ATTRIBUTES# id="report_#REGION_STATIC_ID#">
#TOP_PAGINATION#
<tr>
    <td>
      <table class="fish">
        <caption>Some fishy summaries</caption>
        <colgroup span="1"></colgroup>
        <colgroup span="4" class="evaluation-trips" align="right"></colgroup>
        <colgroup span="4" class="other-trips" align="right"></colgroup>
After Rows
      </table>
    </td>
</tr>
#PAGINATION#
</table><li>Rather than separate tables, the report is contained in one HTML table, utilizing the <tt>tbody</tt> element to subdivide this into separate row groups to meet the "break on first column" requirement. This is achieved using conditional row templates, with PL/SQL Expressions based on the values of metadata columns added to the query:
Row Template 1
Header rows and first data row for each row group. <tt>scope</tt> attributes are added to multi-column headers for improved accessibility:
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <th colspan="9" scope="rowgroup">#C1#</th>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <th></th>
      <th colspan="4" scope="colgroup">Evaluation Trips</th>
      <th colspan="4" scope="colgroup">All Other Trips</th>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <th>#C2#</th>
      <th>#C4#</th>
      <th>#C5#</th>
      <th>#C6#</th>
      <th>#C7#</th>
      <th>#C4#</th>
      <th>#C5#</th>
      <th>#C6#</th>
      <th>#C7#</th>
    </tr>
    <tr class="#ALT#">
      <td class="desc">#C8#</td>
      <td>#C9#</td>
      <td>#C10#</td>
      <td>#C11#</td>
      <td>#C12#</td>
      <td>#C13#</td>
      <td>#C14#</td>
      <td>#C15#</td>
      <td>#C16#</td>
    </tr>
#CLOSE_ROW_GROUP#
Row Template 1 Expression
This template is used when the row metadata shows that the current row is in a different row group from the previous row:
#ROW_GROUP# != #PREVIOUS_ROW_GROUP#
Row Template 2
This is the "default" template, used for any subsequent data rows in the row group:
    <tr class="#ALT#">
      <td class="desc">#C8#</td>
      <td>#C9#</td>
      <td>#C10#</td>
      <td>#C11#</td>
      <td>#C12#</td>
      <td>#C13#</td>
      <td>#C14#</td>
      <td>#C15#</td>
      <td>#C16#</td>
    </tr>
#CLOSE_ROW_GROUP#Both templates make use of a <tt>#CLOSE_ROW_GROUP#</tt> column value conditionally generated in the query that returns a <tt></tbody></tt> tag if the current row is the last data row in the row group. (Mixing logic and structure in this way is not good practice, but APEX only allows up to 4 conditional row templates, which is completely insufficient for any moderately complex structure.)
<li>Several metadata columns (incorporating heavy use of analytic functions) are added to the report query for use in the report template or CSS presentation:

                c1, c2, c3, c4, c5, c6, c7, c8, c9, c10, c11, c12, c13, c14, c15, c16

<li>Finally, the visual presentation is applied using CSS rather than (mainly deprecated) HTML attributes, via an embedded style sheet in the page HTML Header:

.fish tbody tr:first-child th {
border-top: 1px solid #fff;
font-weight: bold;
.fish th,
.fish td {
padding: 3px 6px;
.fish th {
border-bottom: 1px solid #fff;
border-left: 1px solid #fff;
background-color: #275096;
color: #fff;
font-weight: 300;
text-align: left;
.fish td {
text-align: right;
.fish tr.\30 td {
    background-color: #dde;
.fish td:first-child {
    text-align: left;
</style>The default theme L&F report adds vertical borders to separate columns and column groups (latter may not be fully effective on IE: I'm not wasting my time on quirks mode fixes for that).
The resulting report uses 60% less vertical space, and 87% less HTML code[1] than the original. Usability and accessibility are improved by eliminating nested tables and useless table cells and shim images, increasing the contrast between text and background colours, and using alternating row backgrounds for better visual tracking.

Custom Report times out

Greetings,
We are experiencing a very peculiar problem with a custom report where it times out after the stipulated 30 minutes (rdisp/max_wprun_time = 30 minutes). What is unusual is that, the same report, with the same selection criteria, finishes within 20 minutes at some times or even in a lesser duration. I have been unable to establish any correlation between when it runs and when it times out.
Some facts.
1. There are enough free dialog wp, memory and CPU utilization is approximately 50% (or even less) when it does/doesn't finish. By this, I mean that the system is by no means under any kind of stress.
2. Executing the report in the background is an option, but for what the report is meant for, it is necessary to run it in the foreground.
3. I created indices on the tables it reads, which I see being used in the Explain Plan. But using the same indices, the report doesn't finish at other times.
4. The table does an inner join of 2 huge tables; EKPO and EKKO and also an inner join on EBELN and EKET
5. I have checked for locks in the system, but with locks on EKPO and EKKO, the report is still able to finish at some times.
I can probably increase the time limit further, but that is the last thing I would like to do. What is perplexing is that the report finishes within the stipulated time at times. Am I missing something here ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kunal

Just a followup before I close this thread.
The real issue here is that the report reads table A073 which has grown up to around 1 Gb. With this table being defined as fully buffered, buffering is not possible (or results in an error rather) and large amounts of time is spent reading it. In addition to this, the the program does an inner join of this table on MARA (another huge table).
All the above information was found out courtesy ST05.
Thank you for the inputs as always.

Custom Report Item CustomData evaluation problem in a subreport loop

Came across a strange problem with the custom report item CustomData property evaluation when using a sub report loop.
I have a master report, which contains a sub report component within a List. The List is bound to a dataset from which a numeric value is passed on to a sub report's report parameter, and from there further down as an argument to a sub report dataset. The sub
report contains our custom image CRI, which is bound to the said dataset. This dataset outputs a base64 encoded image data value, which the CRI then renders.
Now the problem is that only the first sub report iteration gets evaluated correctly, rest of them seem to get their CRI CustomData from the first iteration. So essentially the loop just outputs the same first sub report over and over again.
However, if I make the List component do a page break after each sub report, then all the sub reports start getting rendered correctly.
Here's how the CustomData gets initialized in the CRI designer class:
this.CustomData = new CustomData();
this.CustomData.DataRowHierarchy = newDataHierarchy();
this.CustomData.DataRowHierarchy.DataMembers.Add(newDataMember());
this.CustomData.DataRowHierarchy.DataMembers[0].Group = newGroup();
this.CustomData.DataRowHierarchy.DataMembers[0].Group.Name = this.Name + "_SingleGrouping";
this.CustomData.DataRowHierarchy.DataMembers[0].Group.GroupExpressions.Add(new ReportExpression());
this.CustomData.DataColumnHierarchy = new DataHierarchy();
this.CustomData.DataColumnHierarchy.DataMembers.Add(new DataMember());
DataRow row = new DataRow();
DataValue value = new DataValue();
value.Name = "Base64";
value.Value = "";
DataCell cell = new DataCell();
cell.Add(value);
row.Add(cell);
this.CustomData.DataRows.Add(row);
The CRI also exposes the CustomData's DataSetName and a Base64 property.
Has anyone else seen something like this happen? Not sure if this could be an issue with our CustomData configuration/usage, the API documentation is pretty much non-existent as usual. Seems more like bug to
me.
Leo Wartinen, Predisys Inc.

Hi WarLe,
If I understand correctly, you are using a list control to contain the subreport in the master report. The dataset of the list contains the field which is passed as the parameter values of the subreport. When you render the report, only the first subreport
gets evaluated correctly, rest of them seem to get their CRI CustomData from the first iteration, right?
If in this scenario, it seems that you haven’t add a group in the list. We can try to add a group grouped on the field which is passed as the parameter values of the subreport to check the issue again. Besides, could you mind post the sample data for the
dataset of the list and tell us the settings for the list control? Then we can make further analysis.
If there are any misunderstanding, please elaborate the issue for further investigation.
Thanks,
Katherine Xiong

Custom Report for Asset Intelligence including Collection selection

Dear all,
I'm struggling with an custom report for doing the following thing.
I have labeled software with the custom label 3 in the Asset Intelligence.
I like to create a Report where i can Choose my Collection and then the Label that should be displayed.
Similar to the Report: Software 10A - Software titles with specific multiple custom labels defined.
But i like to choose more than one Label 3.
Does anybody have something like that? Its really complicated for me to edit that report.
Thanks & Regards
Flat

Hi,
You could post this question in SQL forum to see if someone there can edit the report.
The following document could help you to custom the report.

Publish Customer Report in the page Overview of MSS

Hi,
Good Night.
I want publish a customer report in the page of Overview of MSS.
Can someone help me, what I should do?
Regards

Hi,
Do you have the homepafe framework created for MSS too?
If yes, you can make a service with the Customer report from img and then add it to the Area (suctom area) and then add the are to the custom MSS area group page.
If not, then you can create a separate workset with attached page and iview and the iview can point to the customer report.
Attach this workset to the Custom MSS role.
In case of further quesries, please let me know.
Thanks and Regards,
Pinki

Stopping Customer Report doens not work

Hi All,
I implemented my customer report, which deletes versions of documents which has the same content (comparing the hashcodes).
For traversing a folder hierarchy I used the HierarchyWalker-API.
Now my problem:
How can I stop my report? - I cannot find a method for stopping within the IReport interface.
Many thanks for helping me
Bye Steve

Hi epexpert,
thanks for your reply.
Only two questions:
(1) What do you mean with "confuse the reporting framework"?
(2) In the SAP Reports you can stop the reports manally, why shouldnt this work with the custom reports?
Many thanks
Steve

Custom Report with Problems and incidents

I'm trying to create a custom report of all problems and related incidents. I can query the problemDimvw table, but I need some assistance linking to the incidents. Anyone have a query or point me in a direction to join the necessary tables?
What I'm trying to get is Problem ID, Title, Description, and Incident IDs linked to it. Thanks.
Chris

I know PowerShell can help you with the Get-SCSMRelatedObject command but you would have to write a small script to get that to work en mass.

Custom Report Layout with mutliple child tables

I am trying to create a custom report layout (using Bi Publisher) where I have parent data (multiple jobs on a page) and several child tables for each job (JobDays and JobStops) and several child tables for JobDays (JobDayProviders, JobDayCrew). On the apex screen, I have a join on Jobs and JobDays and I am using functions to string each child row value for JobDayProviders and JobDayCrew together and putting a <br> in between so that they will format on separate lines within a cell. It works fine on the screen but when trying to print to pdf, it ignores these line breaks. I have also tried using <br></br> (saw an article that said just use HTML in bi pulisher) which puts two lines in between each value on the screen and is still ignored on the pdf.
for example:
Table hierarchy:
Jobs table
Job Stops
Job Days
Job Day Service Providers
Job Day Crew
Report Layout per job (will have mutlipe jobs to print, just printing 1 day per job):
Jobs.col1 JobStops.row1 JobDay.col1 JobDayProviders.row1 JobDayCrew.r1
JobStops.row2 JobDayProviders.row2 JobDayCrew.r2
JobDayProviders.row3
Thanks,
Linda
First, is there a way to get bi publisher to recognize the line breaks? If not, what is the best way to create a custom report for this scenario? I tried to create a report query with mutliple queries, but cannot determine how to link the child queries to the paren query. I have seen an example where a button is pressed to print one parent row and the id of that row is saved and referenced as a parameter in each of the queries, but if printing mutliple parents on a report, how would I link the child queries to the parent query?

Helen,
The best way for your case is to use a content folder and customize it whichever way you like.
however, your question is about reports. the problem in reports is this that you have to use just one single query and the layout of the results of this query are displayed in a peculiar way.
anyway. something similar but not exactly the same as what you wanted do is the following.
use a query like the following: (with a union in between)
SELECT COLUMN1,NULL , NULL ,NULL ,NULL
FROM my_source_table
WHERE myCriteria LIKE 'SoAndSo%'
UNION
SELECT NULL,COLUMN2 , COLUMN3, COLUMN4, COLUMN5
FROM my_source_table
WHERE myCriteria LIKE 'SoAndSo%'
---------- Now, have the following codes in the layout segments:

<table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" width="20%" align="center">

<tr align="center">
<td><table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" width="30%" align="center">
<tr align="center">
<TH><#COLUMN1.FIELD#></TH>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
<TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN2.FIELD#></TD>
<TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN3.FIELD#></TD>
<TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN4.FIELD#></TD>
<TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN5.FIELD#></TD>
</tr>

<TR><TD></TD></TR>
this should produce a report with a table structure (you may see the whole if you give BORDER="1" in the main table tag). Within this table, the first column of the first row should be showing top-leftmost column value once (COLUMN1 value) and then the next rows would show last four column values as a table block on the right-bottom part.
with kind regards,
naqvi
