Attachment on Report 6i and 9ias

Hi,
We have several reports made with reports 6i which we run in pdf format through 9ias. Now we want the report to include attachments in the pdf output.
In the oracle report 6i apparantly you can only include text and bitmap files. How can we make it work for other formats so that the can be merged into one pfd output on 9ias.
Ame

Can I install report 10g, if I have report 6i already
on that machine?Yes. Just install it in new oracle home.
Is it just you need to open reports into 10G and
recompile them?.Yes. It worked for me.
Does anybody had any problems with the obselete
objects. like buttons,graphics etc.There are no buttons in 10g. I don't have any idea about graphics.
Also, I have to migrate reports 9i to 10g (for
different project) what do I need to do?Not much difference in 9i and 10g. Just recompile in 10g (9.0.4).

Attach Custom Report to PO Approval Notification

Hi All,
I m currently working on a requirement to attach a custom report along with the PO Output for communication report in the PO Approval. I was tracing and found out that the PO Output for communication has been submitted in PO_COMMUNICAITON_PVT package. After that i am unable to trace further. Please let me know how i can i trace this and how to attach a custom report in PO Approval.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
We are unable to understand your requirement correctly.. Do you use any schedule conc. request to generate the Custom report??? At what time you want to attach custom report in the PO, during the PO creation process by the buyer (before submitting for approval)?
Can the buyer, generate the custom report and save it locally (in his m/c) before attaching it to the PO..?
Kind Regards,
S.P DASH

SQL REPORTING USERNAME AND PASSWORD

I use SQL Server Reporting Services for reporting purpose and create reporting using and attach database then when I deploy any report it shows me username and password in SQL Server Reporting Service.
So what does it mean by password and username and where do I get this username and password for SQL Server Reporting Service?
i have not any password in windows and in SQL Server Database
HERE IS PICTURE
So what can I do?

Going to that link will not run/execute the report. It should either prompt you to login or login you automatically and bring you to the landing page. If you are not being prompted to login, you should consider looking at making sure all the
appropriate services are running by looking at SQL Server Configuration Manager (i.e., the database engine and reporting services). It's also possible that your browser is configured to login you automatically if you are not being prompted to login,
which could be issue if the account you are logged into your computer as is not an administrator.
The next thing to consider is disabling any antivirus or security software that may interfere with the connection. Lastly try different browsers (e.g., firefox, Chrome, and IE) and see if you are getting any different error messages. Also consider
substituting "lenovo-pc" with "localhost". I have also seen the issue described in this article where you may need to disable the loopback check.
http://www.sqlservercentral.com/blogs/sqldownsouth/2009/09/28/reporting-services-disable-loop-back-check/
You aren't going to be able to deploy anything unless you can connect to SSRS via a web browser.

Send Email Attaching the Report generated in Program.

Hi All,
I am generating a report in list format with write statements.
My requirement is to send an email attaching this report as an attachment.
I wanted to know how to get the listobject of the report generated by my program from the memory. Can anyone guide me with this ?
It will be appreciable , If any one can give me more information on sending mails attaching the reports generated by the program.
Thanks in advance,
Mayank

Hi,
I think the problem is not clear.
My problem is to get the listobject name which got generated after the program run.I want to attach this list report to the email. I have seen a code from one of the link.
Here it is.
List of Users According to Logon Date and Password Change
NOTE: Create ALI/OTF Document in Spool
SUBMIT rsusr200 WITH valid = 'X'
                  WITH notvalid = space
                  WITH unlocked = 'X'
                  WITH locked = space
             EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY AND RETURN.
<b>* Read list from memory into table

      OTHERS     = 2.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
Error in function module &1
    MESSAGE ID '61' TYPE 'E' NUMBER '731'
       WITH 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'.
ENDIF.</b>
Because listobject is of size RAW(1000)
and objbin is of size CHAR(255) we make this table copy
CALL FUNCTION 'TABLE_COMPRESS'
    TABLES
      in             = lt_listobject
      out            = lt_objbin
    EXCEPTIONS
      compress_error = 1
      OTHERS         = 2.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
Error in function module &1
    MESSAGE ID '61' TYPE 'E' NUMBER '731'
       WITH 'TABLE_COMPRESS'.
ENDIF.
Here the report is sumitted with the option of exporting the list in to the memory which is later read using 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'.
But here i need the same report's output to be captured and want to read the list generated from memory into table.
How can i get the listobject of the list generated by the report in the same report program itself ??
Please let me know.

Custom reports engine in 9iAS reports services

Hi,
Has anyone built a custom engine with 9iAS reports services and got it to work? The document "Oracle9iAS Reports Services Publishing Reports to the Web" suggests to look for API documentation on OTN, but so far I have not been able to find any documentation on developing a custom engine.
Any suggestions/pointers will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

How to zip report output and send via mail from application

Hello,
I want to know how to zip the report output and send it by mail to concerned person from application
I want this as the report is having more than 70000s of records.
Also the XLS has the limitation of 2^16 records and the report is having more than this
Any help is very much appreciated
Regards,
Vani

1: Make a Dummy report. From some post parameter form trigger, run your original report with "srw.runreport" call. The original report can generate output to a file.
2: Then withing this dummy report run, call a user exit to zip the
original reports output. You need to write this user exit and attach them
with reports.
3: Now use Report 9i distribution for this dummy report to sent this external zip file through mail.
With Regards
Reports Team

Configuring Report Services in 9iAS

Enabling Report Services in 9iAS:
We have installed Oracle 9iAS on Win2000 Server. We have edited the rwservlet.properties file to give our own report server name like �rep9iserevr� by adding a line SERVER = rep9iserver.
Then we made a copy of the rwserver.template file and renamed this file as �rep9iserver�. Our Registry variables are like this:
REPORTS_PATH F:\FORMS
REPORTS_TMP C:\TEMP
FORMS90_PATH F:\FORMS
We are able to work with Forms 9i. But when we use Web.Show_Document for calling reports from Forms 9i using the following command in Internet Explorer
http://hostname:7778/reports/rwservlet?server=rep9iserver&report=9itestrep.rdf&destype=cache&desformat=html&userid=scott/tiger@mydb
Rep-51002 � Binding to the report server rep9iserver failed.
But, if we are accessing the report services without the report file name, etc like
http://10.192.20.14:7778/reports/rwservlet then the browser displays the default page of the report services. Does it mean the report service has already started?
If I call the URL http://10.192.20.14:7778/reports/rwservlet/getserverinfo it displays the following error message:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" standalone="yes" ?>
- <serverInfo name="rep9iserver">
<error code="51002" component="REP" message="Bind to Reports Server rep9iserver failed" />
</serverInfo>
If I call the URL http://10.192.20.14:7778/reports/rwservlet/getserverinfo?server=rep_<hostname> then
we get the following error:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" standalone="yes" ?>
- <serverInfo name="REP_CHEFP06">
<error code="51019" component="REP" message="Need system user authentication" />
</serverInfo>
Does it mean, the clients are not having access to the server? Please note that the client machines are having full write access to the FORMS_PATH (F:\FORMS).
Moreover, Oracle Enterprise Manager shows that �Report Services� Status as Down. Similarly, we are not able to select the �Single Sign On Enabling for Forms Services� in the OEM.
If the status is �Down�, then how are we able to access the report services through the URL (though we are unable to run the report).
So, please give us some ideas to make the reports services available from Forms.
Thanks in adv.
Jagadish Babu.

Hi all , I have a query hope can be answered from here ,

How i have to attach a report output(from server) as attachment

Hi ,
how i have to attach a report o/p as attachment.
Thanks in advance for helping

You could make use of a GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE and populate the data in this table in the BEFORE-REPORT trigger.
Then your report query would be based on this global temporary table which will make it very easy for you.

How to have reports work in 9iAS 9.0.3 java edition

Hi,
We are able top generate reports in Reports Builder and also run the reports in Jdev env( Embedded OC4J). We have to integrate the same with our J2EE application working on our production version of 9iAS 9.0.3 java edition. How to we start the report service in the 9iAS environment?

"9iAS Forms/Reports version" vs "9iAS Java Version"

Everybody knows that Oracle pushing for the JDeveloper 9i and 9iAS. The new "9iAS Java Version" for 5,000 dollars per CPU is a great price.
When Oracle is going to release a "9iAS Forms/Reports Version", which will include 5 developer licenses for Forms/Reports Developer 9i (not the entire 9iDS) and the 9iAS framework to deploy only the 9i forms and/or reports but nothing else - for 5,000 dollars?
As it is proven by the release of 9iAS Java Version, it is really not a technical issue - but a marketing decision to have a "9iAS Forms/Reports Version". Anybody from Oracle marketing?

At Oracle Open World, they said they will have a new BI package of the Application Server which will include HTTP, Web Cache, Discoverer, and Reports. It will also include 5 developer licenses so I'm guessing there will be a similar packaging of the Developer Suite. It may include JDeveloper too but I don't know.
So if you aren't using Forms, there will be one option to get Report Server cheaper than you can today. It is supposed to be released in January. If it includes JDeveloper, then you can migrate your Forms to J2EE and use this installer too.

Can we user Report Runtime without 9iAS?

Can we user Report Runtime without 9iAS?
How to install/configure the Report runtime?
Thanks in advance,
Trung

This question should be posted on the reports discussion forum.
Oracle9i Reports is a web version only. It relies on the report Server to manage queus of reports and distribute them as needed. The Oracl9i Reports Server is part of Oracle9i Application Server and you need to license Oracle9iAS to use it.
Once you install Oracle9iAS you'll have the reports server configured for you.
