Building a report from folder items

I would like to know whether somebody might be able to answer this question.
I have a list of file type items held in a folder. These items happen to be statistical information and are held in the database as you can imagine as blobs. I want to be able to build a report that extracts the content of these items and combines them into a single report. No formatting is reuired simply as it appears. Any ideas, thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks.

All item data are stored in portal30.wwv_things table.
Get the filename from this table for all the items you want.
Then with the folder path, append this filename and
open it with a URLconnection class in java(I am not sure with pl/sql) and use methods in URLconnection class to read the data.
If you put this in the loop, you can join all the content of
document files.
Try this out.

Error when building a report from 2 different subject areas

Hello Experts,
I am using obiee 11.1.1.5.
I have 5 dimension D1,D2,D3,D4,D5 connected to fact1 and 4 dimension connected to fact2 such as D1,D2,D6,D7.
where D1,D2 is common to both the facts.
Fact1 Is in subject area 1 and Fact2 is in subject area2.
I need to create a report by adding columns of subject area 1 and 2 with columns from all the dimensions D1,D2....D7.
As of now i am getting error stating "No fact table exists at the requested level of detail " when i try to add columns from 2 different subject areas.
Can anyone help me in solving the above problem.
Is there any prerequisite to be taken care when building a report from 2 different subject areas.
Regards,
NN

Hello Nagireddy,
So kind of you, for your quick reply
I was able to solve the error by doing below steps in additional what you have specified
-->For the fact table LTSs, set the logical level in the Content tab to the dimension's lowest level for each conforming dimension (leave the non-conforming dimensions level blank).
Now I have another requirement i,e
I need to have non measure columns such as Date into the newly created fact in BMM layer.
I tried doing the steps which I followed for measure column, but it is throwing the same error which I get earlier.
Below is the error
Error Codes: OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC:OI2DL65P
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. [nQSError: 43119] Query Failed: [nQSError: 14025] No fact table exists at the requested level of detail:
Let me know if have any suggestions

Report on Folder Items Based on Security

I have an application to be build. A report is to be generated on the available items in the folder hierarchy of an content area. The user selects the folder in the parameter entry form and the report should display only those items to which he has an access to. Can anyone expalin me how to accomplish this feature.
Thanks

Jerry,
many thanks. I opted for the perspective/search folder approach. Just for the benefit of other visitors: After setting up a perspective for each letter, I created a parent folder('AtoZ') with 26 search folders, each restricting search results to the perspective named after the alphabetic letter. I assigned the perspectives to all my items. I then published the parent folder as a portlet, giving me a dynamic hyperlinked A to Z.
Thanks again
Stefan

Stefan,
You can try creating a perspective for each letter of the alphabet, and assigning these perspectives to the respective text items. Then you can use various techniques to display the perspectives. e.g. a page with 26 tabs, with a perspective portlet under each tab; or a navigation bar displaying the perspectives; or copy the perspective URLs and create a folder with URL items that point to the perspectives; or a search folder for each perspective; etc.
If you want something more automated, you could try writing a query using the new content area views in 3.0.8.

How to build a Report from workflow information

Hi Friends,
I want to create a sales order approval and rejection steps using workflow. For this I have created User Decision Step where I have included approval and rejection decisions. And it is working fine. But the thing is that user wants a report for later analyis by giving sales order info. in selection and in output he need SO number,creation date, approver name, how many times he rejected, rejection date, approval date etc. How to achieve this? Is there any standard report programs available to get this type of info? kindly assist me.
Rewarded...
Thanks in advanace,
Steve.

Run Report From Workflow Item

Hi All
I want to create work item that will run a Transaction/Report.
when the user will execute the work item from his inbox
It will run a Transaction "z*" with some parameters and display the result (ALV Rp)
Thanks in Advance For Any Help.

Hi Kobi,
1. Change (or extend) the BOR to create a new method to display this report or transaction.
2. When you define the method, you get a popup with 3 tabs. In the Abap tab, you can link it to a Transaction (or even a report).
You can also pass data.
3. Now create a new task in your workflow that will call this BOR method.
4. Create a new Workflow step, that will call this task created in step 3.
As simple as that.
Btw, if you want more details on this, you can refer to the SAP Workflow book from SAP Press. You can also read the SAP Help documentation which mentions these steps.
Hope this helps you. If it does, remember to reward points.
Rgds,
Prashanth.

REPORT WITH CHANGING ITEM ON THE SAME COLUMN

Hi to all,
i'm trying to build a report with different item in the same column.
Is that possible in any way using other Oracle technique?
i'm not doing anything specific here, only i would like to know if the following possibility exist or not and how can i let apex render the htmldb_item fields 'dynamically'.
Using this CODE inside a PL/SQL function body returning sql query I obtain the following report content. Such the code of htmldb_item.fields is written, as a field value the HTML_ITEM is not rendered, so only the description of them appear in the report.
Does somebody know some tricks to make it work?
Thanx a lot
1     2     LAST_CALL     htmldb_item.date_popup (4, ROWNUM, FLD_VALUE,'dd/mon/yyyy') VALUE
21     1     AGE     htmldb_item.text(4,FLD_VALUE,10,10) VALUE
create or replace FUNCTION FNC_GEN_GUI_ITEM(ITEM_TYPE NUMBER) RETURN VARCHAR2 AS
STRHTMLDITEM VARCHAR2(4000);
BEGIN
CASE ITEM_TYPE
WHEN 1 THEN STRHTMLDITEM:=' htmldb_item.text(4,FLD_VALUE,10,10) VALUE ';
WHEN 2 THEN STRHTMLDITEM:=' htmldb_item.date_popup (4, ROWNUM, FLD_VALUE,''dd/mon/yyyy'') VALUE ';
END CASE;
RETURN STRHTMLDITEM;
END FNC_GEN_GUI_ITEM;
MY TABLE AS FOLLOWS:
CREATE TABLE "NEWPROJ"."DINFIELDGUI"
(     "ID" NUMBER NOT NULL ENABLE,
     "FLD_TYPE" NUMBER,
     "FLD_NAME" VARCHAR2(4000 BYTE),
     "FLD_VALUE" VARCHAR2(4000 BYTE),
     CONSTRAINT "DINFIELDGUI_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("ID"));

Hi to all,
i've solved, is very simple using decode inside the select:
SELECT
ID,
FK_HTMLDB_ITEM, DECODE(FK_HTMLDB_ITEM,1,HTMLDB_ITEM.DATE_POPUP(3,rownum,VAL,'dd-mon-yyyy'),2,HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(3,VAL)) VALORE
FROM TESTID
my table is:
CREATE TABLE "DEV"."TESTID"
(     "ID" NUMBER NOT NULL ENABLE,
     "FK_HTMLDB_ITEM" NUMBER,
     "VAL" VARCHAR2(4000 BYTE))
Bye Bye

If you are not passing any parameters, you don't need to pass the parameter string. Replace the pl_id with "null" or use the 2 double quotes to represent the null eg. "" and see if you still get the same error

OBIEE: REPORT FROM 2 FACTS WITH ONE SHARED AND ONE UNSHARED DIM; POSSIBLE??

Hi All,
We have a typical scenario to build a report from 2 subject areas(ideally from 2 facts)
Here is the Scenario: Creating a report which based on two facts(2 Subject Area's) and one common dimension and one unshared dimension.
Example
======
Dimension Date is common between Fact Transaction and Fact Credits.
Dimension Credit Type is applicable only for Fact Credit.
We have to build a report with the below mentioned attributes/metrics
Dim Date. Attribute (*Common Dimension*)
Fact.Transaction.Metric
Fact. Credit .Metric
Dim.Credit Type. Attribute (*Unshared Dimension*)
Is this is possible in OBIEE..?
Thanks,
Govardhana

Yes, you must use measure levels. Set the column level of each measure from the Transaction Fact to Total for the Credit Type dim.

Report from different connection pools

Hi All
My requirement is as below.
When USER1 logs in and builds a report from a subject area then the data is fetched from connection_pool1 and when user 2 logs in and builds the same report then data is fetched from connection_pool2.
The data are in identical table structures in both connection pools but for user2 there is a restriction on the volume of data hence can this dynamic feature be implemented? and How.
thanks
swastik

We cannot do this dynamically,We need to change this manually

Report Generation - Build an exe from a PC with different Office Version

Hi,
I want to build an exe from a VI that uses Report Generation Toolkit. The application has to be deployed on several PCs that use Office 2000. During development phase I installed on my PC, Office 2000 and everything was ok. After I was done with it, I reinstalled Office 2007. So, the Report Generation Toolkit from my PC is for Office 2000 (it was installed when I had Office 2000 on my PC).
These days I had to fix some bugs from my application, I made a new exe but the part that generates Word reports (using RGT) is not working anymore - I received that error with -35...9935 (or something like this).
I tried to search for the problem and I found it: with exactly the same VI's (_Word Dynamic VIs.vi - for Office 2000) the invoke nodes from a PC with Office 2007 and a PC Office 2000 look different. For example in Word_Open_Document.vi, the invoke node Document is different for a PC with Office 2000 + RGT for 2000 and a PC with Office 2007 + RGT for Office 2000 (no mistake).
So, I've tried to copy the VI's from a PC with Office 2000 + RGT 2000 to my PC but I cannot build it because I get the error: There are some errors in _Word Dynamic VIs.vi (the invoke nodes do not fit).
Finally my question is: How can I build the exe on my PC: Office 2007 but with RGT for Office 2000??
Thanks,
Paul
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi,
Thank you for your advice. Can you please tell me what you want to say with the wrapper vi? I don't really understand what you mean.
By the way, I solved the problem. I discovered that the Invoke Nodes are updated based on the Object Library for the ActiveX control (in this case the MS Office). The data types are store in the msword9.olb (version 9 - for office 2000 in Office folder) and msword.olb (version 12 - for office 2007 also in Office folder). I tried to register the msword9.olb (using the regsvr32.exe) but it doesn't work for olb files - I need the ocx or dll. But, if I replace the msword.olb from Office 2007 with msword9.olb from Office 2000 everything work.
Ok, steps that have to be done:
1. Install the RGT for Office 2000 on the PC
2. DO NOT Change anything in _Word_Dynamic VIs.vi. When Office 2007 is installed the VI arrow should be broken (error in VI)
3. Copy the msword9.olb from a system with Office 2000 (or your version) and copy it to your system with Office 2007 with the new name msword.olb. DO NOT FORGET to make a backup of the original MS Office 2007 file and to restore it at the end.
4. After the new msword.olb is there, the _Word_Dynamic VIs.vi should have no error
5. Build your exe application
6. Restore the old msword.olb
7. ENJOY your life !
I hope this is useful also for somebody else.

Building report from PL/SQL cursor

Hello,
is there any way to build APEX report using just PL/SQL cursor?
I don't have grant to SELECT from views or tables, but I can use some functions returning row types and cursors. I know I can use them to build table from scratch with htp.p etc., but it’s not very nice. I want to do it using APEX reporting with filtering and pagination functionality.
Is it possible?
Regards,
Przemek

Apologies for the delay, I was out of the office.
Below is a package serving as the basis for creating a view based on a pipelined function. The package is just a skeleton and will not compile in its current form, you will need to go through it filling in the blanks as described by the comments.
If you want some control over what rows are returned by the view from a larger result set, use the set_parameters function in the WHERE clause, E.G.:
select * from really_big_complicated_slow_view where 1 = view_pkg.set_parameters(something_that_reduces_the_view_result_set_size);
Or, a more concrete example:
select result_text from view_to_convert_to_csv where 1 = view_pkg.set_parameters(pi_table => 'my_table', pi_where = 'whatever');
In the spirit of full disclosure, I got the idea for using the "set_parameters" function in the view WHERE clause from a post or blog somewhere a couple of years ago but have lost track of who actually deserves the credit for the good idea.

Reports - "Derive from Page Item" Missing in APEX 3.0.1?

I installed a patch 3.0.1.
I can't find on the list of formats in report queries option:
"Derive from Page Item"
But, in help window for the list of formats I can read:
"The format attribute specifies the download format for the report query.
Report queries can be downloaded as PDF documents, Word documents (RTF
based), Excel Spreadsheets
(HTML based) or as HTML files.
To determine the download format at runtime of the application, choose
"Derive from Page Item"."
Where is "Derive from Page Item" option?
Best Regards
Daniel Kozlowski

Option "Derive from page Item" is still available in 2 places:
1. "Shared Components -> Report Queries -> Create Report Query" on last
"Create Shared Query" window.
I can choose it from "Output Format" list.
2. In report properties on "Print Attributes" tab.
I can also choose this option, from "Output Format" list.
Of course, above options still doesn't work correctly.

Invoice line items report from DSO compared to Infocube (in HANA)

Hi Folks,
As you know Invoice line items are very granular level information. We are facing performance issues on reports based on the Infocubes to display this information. We are migrating to HANA and looking for options to improve the performance. One of the option we are looking at is instead of Infocube can we we report directly on the DSO. I would like to know whether it will help and its Pro & Con's. Please help.
Thanks,
B

Hi B,
Reading data from a DSO instead of an InfoCube will not improve reporting performance. The benefit in getting rid of the cube is that you have less loading to do. You still need cubes for planning and inventory scenarios.
You do not need a composite provider to report from DSOs in BW. Once you've migrated to HANA you use DSOs just as you would today, and you can report from a multiprovider. Yes, you can use a composite provider, but it is not necessary.
If your report is slow today, you need to find out where it is slow. HANA could provide a huge benefit as soon as you migrate, or it might not help much. It depends on the scenario. OSS 1681396 is a good place to start.
If the DB time is long, and you're not using BWA today, you can expect big benefits when you migrate to HANA.
If the OLAP time is long, you might see big benefits when you migrate, as the OLAP engine during query execution is pushing more to HANA.
If the frontend time is long, migrating to a different database isn't likely to change that, you'd need to address that separately.
Finally, an important point to remember is that once you've migrated you open up additional possibilities for improvement that are not available to you in BW-on-non-HANA. For example, you might be able to rewrite queries as HANA models. I did some performance tests on this in a very simple case of exception aggregation.
