BIP Reports for Oracle EBS

I am looking for some documents which would let me know how to create BIP Reports by using RDF, RTF and Concurrent Program.
I would appreciate if anyone can let me know from where can I download such a document.
Regards
Hawker

Bob,
The version of Reports that I think you're looking for is Reports 2.5, which has been desupported. Someone in your account team may be able to find this version lying around (or someone else from the board may be able to help you).
That said, you may want to try installing a later version on a PC and seeing if you can connect across SQL*Net and create and execute the reports. This is an unsupported configuration, but it may work (I don't think that we in Oracle have ever tested it).
Regards,
Danny

How to print BIP reports from Oracle Forms?

Hi all,
I have a question in regards to printing BIP reports from Oracle Forms... We are aiming for a server installation of BIP with integration to Oracle Forms using SSO to handle security. We use Forms built-in web.show_document to render and view the report in PDF/Excel etc... We would like to by pass the viewing and print some of these reports directly to the printer.
Any idea/suggestions how we can go about this?
Thanks in advance for your time.
Yahya

Yahya,
via HTTP it's not possible to send a report directly to the printer. You had to go via the Scheduler, which is able to do that. With the WebService API you can call a report with the Scheduler and Execute Immediate.

Developing Report for Oracle Apps 11i

Hi,
I am developing Reports for Oracle 11.5.8 and using Reports 6i
Are there any good documents that can guide me to develop reports exclusively for Oracle Applications
I am customizing one of the report, did a very minor modification and when I run it, it shows small square boxes in the output.
If I print it, I dont see the small boxes, Can you let me know how to avaoid this.
Aslo have a couple of questions, should I use the option "use character units in designer" or something else while developing the reports
What shold be the unit of measurement (Inches, Centimeter or Points)
Lastly, is it a good idea to "View the Grid" or not in the "layout editor"
Thanks
Vasanth

Hi Vasanth,
when I run it, it shows small square boxes in the outputI can think of 2 posssibilities:
one, the width of the column in the layout is slightly smaller than required. You can try increasing the width of the layout objects where you see square boxes.
two, you are designing the report in a language for which support/font is not available on your development machine.
should I use the option "use character units in designer"This option should be used when you design a report in "character mode", not when you are designing the report in "bitmap mode". Pl see Builder Help for more information on MODE.
What shold be the unit of measurementIs it up to you to decide. If you know the dimensions of the paper (on which you are going to print) in inches for example, you can design the report in inches. Choose any unit of measurement, and then define the width and height of paper in the Header/Main/Trailer Sections in that particular unit. The report output will be the same whether you choose the paper width as 10 inches or 25.4 cm.
Also, about point...
Point: Is a printer's type size that makes up a pica. Each pica contains twelve points and is equivalent to one-sixth of an inch.
is it a good idea to "View the Grid" or not in the "layout editor"The grid is available to help you position objects in the viewing region of the paper layout. It is helpful so you can start designing with it, but you can decide to turn it off if you do not need it.
The grid is drawn in relationship to the rulers. In the Ruler Settings dialog box, you specify the interval at which grid lines appear per unit on the ruler. �For example, if you have a Unit of inches and a Grid Spacing of 0.5, there will be one grid line per half-inch on the ruler.
You get to the Ruller Settings dialog Box by choosing Tools > Options > Rulers.

Hi Every Body,
1- How to Stage directory for Oracle EBS R12.1.1 downloaded from e-delivery.com on Window Server 2008.?
-- I have download all files from e-delivery and check the md5 and all files are OK.
I extracted the entire files with winrar program to the same directory and during the unzipping I was notified to replace these files (dvd.label and component.label) and I agreed each time. So >>
2- Was that a problem ?
-- I have setup vc++ from VS6 , the sp6, cygwin , ... and set up the active directory and the domain.. and all other requirements.
BUT when i started the ebs set up it raise the "*Os User and Group Check*" error.
even if I am the only user and sure I am the Administrator. and also I run this Command to be sure
C:\>net localgroup administrators and it said that the administrator is one of the administrators group.
3- Somebody said that I have to change the temp and tmp folder to be on c:\ drive >> might this solve the problem?
thanks in advance.

Hi,
Most of the instructions you have mentioned , already was configured.
except for the tmp and temp directories.
And even I changed them from System Properties >> Advanced >> Environment Variable under User variable for Administrator and System variables , the problem still exist Os User and Group Check .
I attach the conf_VIS.txt file because I thought it may help.
http://www.4shared.com/document/1bS6aio5/conf_VIS.html
Actually I am not sure about the rapid install patch version but I have download the EBS R12 from the following link and I think it contains the recent installer version
Link >> Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.1 Media Pack for Microsoft Windows (32-bit)
http://edelivery.oracle.com/EPD/Download/get_form?egroup_aru_number=11250138
Note If you still can not open the link just suggest a suitable file hosting and I will upload to you. here I used 4shared and hoped it suits you.

HRMS Analytics configuration for Oracle EBS

Hi ,
I have to configure HRMS Analytics for Oracle EBS(Referring Configuration Guide for OBIA 7.9.6.3) , I am new to OBIA :
I just started working domain Values (csv files), I have few queries for the same:
1. Is is necessary to Use the query mentioned in the OBIA Setup guide , to get the Domain Values. Can we use different query to extract the Domain Values ?
What is the effect if query is changed ?
2. Some csv are for 11i instance ,so does it mean , it is not required to configure those csv files for R12 ?
Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Razi

Here are the answers to the questions:
1. Is is necessary to Use the query mentioned in the OBIA Setup guide , to get the Domain Values. Can we use different query to extract the Domain Values ?
What is the effect if query is changed ?
A: Not necessairily. The query is there to help you gather the relevant data but this is a functional exercise. If a HR Functional person on your team can identify the relevant domains, events, etc, then you can populate it manually. The goal is to get the relevant EBS domain values and map to the BI requirements. The query is a fast way to get the list of the existing values from the EBS DB.
2. Some csv are for 11i instance ,so does it mean , it is not required to configure those csv files for R12 ?
A: If the COnfig Guide specifically has a section for R12 versus 11..then you need to follow for the version you are on. However, there are general "EBS" configurations that you need to do for both versions. Rule of thumb, if it doesnt specific the version, then it needs to be done for both.
If helpful, pls mark correct or helpful

Certification AMP for Oracle EBS on Grid Control v10.2.0.5

Hi,
Our company is currently using Grid Control v10.2.0.2 and different agent versions on 32-bits linux servers.
We are using this version for about 3 years and now we want to start with a fresh Grid Contol enviroment so started a new project.
The goal of the project is to use the latest version of Grid Control and 64bits linux servers, but also to monitor our EBS enviroments.
Is Oracle currently working to certify AMP(3.0) for Oracle Ebs for Grid Control 10.2.0.5 and agents version 10.2.0.5 on 64-bits linux servers??
I searched OTN and metalink but couldnt find anything about it.

WebSphere Adpater for Oracle EBS

Is anyone familiar with WebSphere Adapter for Oracle?
I am trying to use the WebSphere Adapter for Oracle EBS to create a Cash Receipt into Oracle EBS v12 and I am getting the error "ORG ID is invalid", even though I am specifying a valid Org Id. I have tried also not specifing the Ord Id parameter and it says "Org id is required". My EBS is hosting 3 Organisations. I wonder whether something else is required.
I am using the API ar_receipt_api_pub.create_cash
Has anyone used this adapter? Any tips?

Unable to open XML report in Oracle EBS r12

Hi,
I have new installation of Oracle EBS r12 (12.1.1) on linux.
To test the XML report, I changed the output of standard report 'Active Users' from 'Text' to 'XML' and defined the data definition and template for this report.
I am unable to see the output for XML reports. The report completes without error, however I cannot open the output file.
The browser opens for fraction of a second and then closes down. My client machine is Windows 7 and I used Microsoft words 2010 to build template
I used the 5.7.201 version of BI publisher to create the rtf template.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks

I changed the output of standard report 'Active Users' from 'Text' to 'XML' and defined the data definition and template for this report.
looks like xml publisher report, so output for concurrent must be 'XML'
******* I have changed the output of concurrent program 'Active Users' from 'Text' to 'XML'
I am unable to see the output for XML reports.
how you see it?
******* I tried to open the report by clicking on 'Output' button from view request screen of EBS.
did you try after concurrent completed check 'diagnostic -> view xml'?
******* I haven't tried this. Will do now.
The report completes without error, however I cannot open the output file
what is error?
******* There is no error, the request completed successfully. When I tried to open the output file by clicking 'output' button, the browser doesn't open.
did you check OPP log?
******* There is nothing in the OPP log.
if concurrent failed so first of all check your code - data template and package (if used)
******* I used the standard EBS report 'Active Users' and just changed the output from 'Text' to 'XML' and attached the rtf template.

How to get the list of BIP reports for a perticular instance?

Hello All,
We have a requirement to list all the BI Publisher reports available in an instance from outside BIP.Is there any way to get the reports with the instance details as parameters?And is it possible to run BIP reports from command line?
Do we have any API's to do these?
Thanks in advance...

Hi,
there's a Java API and a Web Service API available for BI Publisher. The Web Services API for example has functions to get the content of folders or the parameters of a report.
Have a look at
