Calling a .rdf report from a link on a apex report column

Hi,
I want to call a xxx.rdf report from a link on a apex report column.
Can anyone help me on this ?
Best regards,
JCN

Hi,
Sorry - I should have read a bit further in your last post!
The url variable that you're defining should just be the URL string that you want to create, so you only need the "http://........" part. There's also a + missing after the "&TODT..." string.
The "DEA_PERMIT_ID=&G_PERMIT_ID." part at the end should have an & at the start to indicate a new parameter in the URL. Otherwise, &G_PERMIT_ID. would be replaced by the value stored in the session for the G_PERMIT_ID item (presumably that is an Application Item?).
So:
function callPopup()
var url = "'http://snapper.accsp.org/reports/rwservlet?destype=cache&desformat=PDF&report=edr_landings_dollars_by_vessel.rdf&userid=evtr_report/chicken99@safis&FROMDT=" + $v("P810_FROM") + "&TODT=" + $v("P810_TO") + "&DEA_PERMIT_ID=&G_PERMIT_ID.";
popupURL(url);

Calling A BI Publisher Report From A Link In An Apex Report

I have a report on my page
select id, aa, bb
from table_x
What I want to do is to have an extra column or use the id column as a link (which says Print Report) to call an BI Publisher report. This call should pass over the id and open the report in a popup window.
For certain reasons I do not want to use the built in report queries and layouts in apex, just call the report straight for BI.
I call other BI reports in my application, but always from a button.
Help appreciated
Gus

Hi,
All that such a button does is submit the page and branch to page zero passing in the request field something like this:
PRINT_REPORT=my_report
So, to do the same in a dynamic action, use an "execute javascript code" action with something like this in it:
location.href = 'f?p=&APP_ID.:0:&SESSION.:PRINT_REPORT=my_report';

View a Detailed report from a link in a General Report?

Greetings all,
I have no idea why I am confused on what I am trying to do. I have a Report that Generates a tabluar view off all tickets the actual ticket has 25 fields to be filled in, but of course on the tabular view, I only have four of the relevant fields that the user can see.
Example:
TICKETID TICKETDESCRIPTION TICKETSTATUS TICKETOWNER
0001 | Stuff Broke | Awaiting Customer | Bob
0002 | Part Missing | Open | Fred
0003 | Need Help with Stuff | Open | Sandy
What I am trying to do is create the TICKETID as a link that will open another report with all the details about the Ticket. Currently I have the report and it has a link to go and edit the fields on the form based on P12_TICKETID = #TICKETID# in the link field. But I can't find a way to link it to another report. Am I missing something? I want the user to see all the details about the ticket, but I don't want them to be able to edit the report. I guess I am not clear on how to create a selectable report based on one ticket verses a report that lists them all.
Currently the tabular report is on my Page 11 and I don't see how to reference the report fields by any P11_xxxx naming as I have tried and it tells me it can't see them.
The P12_TICKETID is the Form that analysts use to update the ticket, so I don't want the customers to access that unless there is a way to access it as a view only.
I hope that made sense and if so, could someone tell me what I am missing in my thinking. I would think this would be a standard process for APEX but I am lost on it.
Thanks in Advance.
Wally

If I understand right,you want a new report, that contains all 25 columns, but just for the selected record. There are several ways to accomplish this, including creating a form that would be read-only. To create this as a report, you need to create a new page, you can create a report on that page but use a value attribute pairs report template (this will show the label on the left and the value on the right for each column and each column going down the page, rather than across). Create a hidden item on your page to store the selected ticket_id and then link to that new page, passing #TICKETID# to the hidden item. Lastly, modify the query on your new page to include 'where ticketid = :P?_TICKETID'.
Again, you could create a classic report that just includes all 25 columns or a form and then make each item display only or the scenario I described above. Good luck.

Opening a specific Interactive report from a link

Hello,
I have a chart which links back to a page with interactive report. I want to make sure that every time user clicks on the link on the chart page, he is shown the default report view. But currently it shows the last viewed report from various saved reports. Is there a way I can call the default report. I tried RIR in clear cache section of the link but does not seem to take me back to default report.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Bhavesh

Have you looked at the actual Javascript that is called when an interactive report is reset? You might be able to use this in a region that is conditionally "displayed" when the page is called from the chart. Perhaps using the REQUEST as the condition.

Urgent :- Call a seeded form from a link

Hi,
Can anybody suggest me how to open the form for people screen from a link , for a particular person in Oracle apps HRMS.
The link is provided through a workflow notification .
The requirement is that by clicking the link, the form for people screen for the particular person should open.
I am dealing with seeded forms of the application and i cannot edit the forms or write any trigger.
I have used FND_RUN_FUNCTION.get_run_function_url ( p_function_id in number,
p_resp_appl_id in number,
p_resp_id in number,
p_security_group_id in number,
p_parameters in varchar2 default null,
But I did not get what to pass in the p_parameters since there are global variables which needs to be passed while opening the form.
If you can advice me on this then it would be of great help.

Seona

DB links, Bind variables & APEX reports performance

Hello,
So the problem is simply that I have two databases:
A : Has table T1
B : (APEX database)
I have an APEX report that simply does the following
Select col1, col2.. from A@dblink
This is abviously straighforward, however, I start having considrable performance issues if I have any filters applied to this query using APEX items ( bind variables) :
Select col1, col2.. from T1@dblink_A_B
where col1 > :PX_item
I ran the explain plan and noticed that using the bind variables forces the query to be done on database B, not A which is causing the performance issues.
I am sure that many of you ran into this issue before, but does anyone know how to resolve this issue ? I am thinking about using Pipelined functions, but am not sure if that will work well if I have a lot of records returned by the query or if this will resolve the issue at all.... your thoughts are appreciated..
Thanks,
Sam

I've always been able to work around my DB link issues in Apex. As suggested, driving_site hint should be tried. Oracle documentation on it isn't great, but I follow this:
- don't bother including other hints together with driving_site, as they get stripped out when your sql is passed to the remote DB (as per driving_site hint).
- if you have have subqueries - specifiy driving_site hint in that section of the SQL too. I don't have any proof that this is really required - but it doesnt hurt.
- include driving_site hint even if all tables are remote. Careful of refs to pseudo cols like sysdate, user etc. I think they are taken as local refs - not remote. I havent tested this properly to confirm.
- dumb down your test case to eliminate refs to sysdate, subqueries etc.
- remember that items are text, so you'd need to do to_number(), to_date() on them where appropriate on them in your SQL at the least.
Seeing as you control the content of your items, SQL injection is a reduced risk. Assuming that's not your top concern anyway, don't get carried away with the bind-variable vs literals debate. Apex does lots of nasty inefficient stuff like IR searches. I'd never use an IR in something that really needs to be scalable anyway. Soo... construct SQL with littlerals based on your items (assuming item refs are the cause of your issue).
region type=SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query)
begin
return 'SELECT /*+ DRIVING_SITE(a) */ a.empno,a.ename,a.job,a.mgr,a.loc
        FROM emp@MY_DBLNK A
       WHERE a.empno = '||:P123_EMPNO||'
       ORDER BY 1,2,3';
end;Assuming your queries are expensive to execute (local or remote) and dont return too many records (else collection table can get really big), then caching the resultset in a collection gives you nice fast pagination, when using a PPR report. Keep a watch on the size of the collection table - truncate it manually if you accidentally populate it with a big cartesean product etc, else performance could degrade.
Do main query to populate collection before header. PPR pagination doesnt reload the page, so before-header process only runs once. In my case it works like:
-- reload button to re-load page, to force a query re-run. The html_Submit_Progress thing loads an 'busy processing' image.
<input type="button" value="Run query" onclick="javascript:this.disabled=true;this.value='Running...';html_Submit_Progress(this);" id="SUBMIT" />
-- On Load - before header process to populate collection (call in a regular region to see errors, until ironed out)
declare
q varchar2(4000);
v_t0   PLS_INTEGER := DBMS_UTILITY.get_time;
begin
   :P0_QSEC := '0';
IF APEX_COLLECTION.COLLECTION_EXISTS(P_COLLECTION_NAME=> 'Q1')
THEN
    APEX_COLLECTION.DELETE_COLLECTION(P_COLLECTION_NAME=>'Q1');
END IF;
if (:P0_DBLNK is not null) then
    q:= 'SELECT /*+ DRIVING_SITE(a) */ a.empno,a.ename,a.job,a.mgr,a.loc
        FROM emp@'||:P0_DBLNK||' a
       WHERE a.job like "M%"
        AND a.empno = #EMPNO#
       ORDER BY 1,2,3';
    q:= replace(q, '"', '''');
    q:= replace(q, '#EMPNO#', :P123_EMPNO);
    -- bulk
    APEX_COLLECTION.CREATE_COLLECTION_FROM_QUERY_B(
        P_COLLECTION_NAME => 'Q1',
        P_QUERY => Q);
   -- record count
   -- APEX_COLLECTION.collection_member_count
end if;
-- display in page footer or whatever
:P0_QSEC := TO_CHAR ((DBMS_UTILITY.get_time - v_t0) / 100, '000.00') || ' sec';
exception
when others then
raise_application_error(-20501, :P0_DBLNK||'< br >'||sqlerrm||'< br >'||q );
end;
-- then PPR report is just like
Select C001, C002, C003, C004, C005

Running Reports from Client Machines in which the reports are residing on t

Hi Folks,
I'm using Developer 6i with Oracle 9i. I can run forms from the clients so that the FMX file is residing on a shared drive on the server, but when I try to run reports which also reside on the shared drive of server, I get error that unable to find the report. Do I need to install report server on the client machine/server or am I missing some basic step here?
TIA

Hi,
There's a whitepaper on the topic of Forms/Reports integration for the web called "Oracle9iAS Forms Services and Reports Services Integration". This should give you the information you are seeking.

Binding Sub Report based on link clicked in main report in BIDS

Is it possible to bind Sub Report based on the link clicked in main report which is the parameter for sub report in BIDS?

Hi Thanuja534,
If I understand correctly, you want to add a drillthough action on a report to jump into another report with a specified parameter.
A report can contain links to other reports. The report that opens when we click the link in the main report is known as a drillthrough report. Drillthrough reports are a type of report that we access by clicking a link in the current report. When we click
a text box that has a drillthrough action, we open the drillthrough report. If the drillthrough report has parameters, we must pass parameter values to each report parameter.
Besides, drillthrough reports must exist on the same report server as the main report, but they can be in different folders. We can add a drillthrough link to any item that has an Action property, such as a text box, an image, or data points on a chart.
For more information about adding parameters to pass to a Drillthrough Report, please see:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa337477(v=sql.105).aspx
If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

Calling a remote method from a link

I've been programming in Java for a few years, but I'm quite new at using JSP. I have a Java class that has methods to do some manipulations in a remote database. I'd like to invoke one of its public methods from a JSP page when I click on the correct link.
The "link" would act the same way as a button, the only thing that it would do is calling the method from my class when clicked on. Example: There's a link that says "Generate XML file" and when I click on it, the method generateXML() from the Java class is called. No need to display anything, just do the treatment. Maybe make a refresh of the page afterwards, but that's it. I do not know how to pull this off, help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Julien

call your java class function in a jsp and link it.
For ex:
generatexml.jsp ---> call your function in this jsp
And make the link like this
GenerateXML
You can make it as a pop up and close the popup window once the process is over

Transfer reports from Crystal Enterprise 9 to Crystal Reports server 2008

Hello,
a decision was made to stand up our new Crystal Reports Server 2008 box and only load new reports to it that were created in Crystal Reports 2008, or ones that were modified in CR 2008.
Now I have all of my users set up and some reports loaded on the new server. There has been a new decision to now move a couple hundred reports off the old server onto the new and also have the same folder structure and schedules as exists on the old CR 9 server.
Is there an export/import tool that will allow for this?

Hi,
i`m not quite sure if you can do this from CRE9 to CRS2008 with the Import Wizard. I think its only supported beginning with CE10.
Check the Import Wizard Guide from:
