Calling BI Publisher report using FND_SUBMIT.SUBMIT_REQUEST---

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement in which BI Publisher report will be called using a PL/SQL procedure.
i am successfully able to call BI publisher report using FND_SUBMIT.SUBMIT_REQUEST function.
Business requirement is that the BI publisher report can be generated in PDF,Excel or HTML format.
but i am able to generate the report only in xml format.
Please guide me how to achieve this.
Thanks in Advance,
Cheers
Andy.

Make sure you register the Data Definition (with same code as concurrent program short name) and register/upload the Template correctly.
Call fnd_request.add_layout
Then call FND_SUBMIT.SUBMIT_REQUEST

Gareth

Call BI Publisher Report in APEX, based on R.T.F Template Layout.

Hi to all respected members of this forum.
Since 18th May (Saturday), I am trying to connect BI Publisher Reports with Oracle Application Express 4.2.2.
My APEX Version = APEX 4.2.2
Oracle BI Publisher Enterprise Edition (Trial) = 11.1.1.6.0
Oracle BI Publisher Desktop 32 Bit = 11.117.0.79
For this purpose what I did?
Firstly I downloaded Oracle BI Publisher Enterprise Edition 11.7 and when I started Installation I came to know that "R.C.U (Repository Creation Utility)" is required during installation and I don't have that so, left this idea.
Than I downloaded Oracle BI Publisher Enterprise Edition (Trial) from www.oracle.com and BI Publisher Desktop Edition for Templates because there is no facility in BI Publisher Trial Edition to design Report Templates. I have installed both successfully and created a report as per my requirement.
Now, I want to call that report in Oracle APEX but I am unable to do that.
I followed http://dgielis.blogspot.de/2007/12/call-bi-publisher-report-from-apex.html but the link which is shown in picture no: 03, is not available, so this didn't help me.
Then, I followed Oracle BI Publisher Blog https://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/entry/apex_users_why_not_integrate_w which discuss to call BI Publisher Report in APEX based on "Generic Report Layout". This done successfully but still I am unable to call BI Publisher Report .
Then I found this type of script
http://localhost/xmlpserver/Guest/Reporting_Channel.xdo&id=FGFC&password=****&xt=Reporting_Channel&xf=pdf
to call BI Publisher Report in APEX but this also failed.
Please help me to understand that how to call "BI Publisher Report in APEX, based on R.T.F Template Layout.
Thanks in Advance.

Are you trying to have multiple sql queries and have multiple sections displaying different data sets ? Or with one single query but display it in different ways in a single report ?
You can create one single query as Report Query in APEX and associate it with a BIP report layout. So you can achieve a Dashboard layout with the report query/layout.

Calling BI Publisher Report

I call a bi publisher report from an apex button using:
javascript:popupURL('&BI_URL.Guest/MERCURY/CUSTOMS/REJECTS/MER_REJECTS_MISC/MER_REJECTS_MISC.xdo?_xpf=&_xpt=0&_xdo=%2FGuest%2FMERCURY%2FCUSTOMS%2FREJECTS%2FMER_REJECTS_MISC%2FMER_REJECTS_MISC.xdo&P_REJECT_ID=&P59_REJECT_ID.&_xt=MER_REJECTS_MISC&_xf=rtf&_xmode=4');
{CODE}
The report opens but there is no standard toolbar, ie, cannot print or save. Do I need to specify something in the url.
If I open this as a pdf then the print, save options are there
Gus

I changed the url and have managed to get the report to open in Word properly, ie, with toolbar.
javascript:popupURL('&BI_URL.Guest/MERCURY/CUSTOMS/REJECTS/MER_REJECTS_MISC/MER_REJECTS_MISC.xdo?_xpf=&_xpt=1&_xdo=%2FGuest%2FMERCURY%2FCUSTOMS%2FREJECTS%2FMER_REJECTS_MISC%2FMER_REJECTS_MISC.xdo&P_REJECT_ID=&P59_REJECT_ID.&_xt=MER_REJECTS_MISC&_xf=rtf');I changed the xpt=0 to xpt=1 and deleted anything after the _xf=rtf'.
This now opens in word correctly, but also opens an extra blank window. I have had this problem before and thought I had solved it by using the aboce codel.
Does anybody know how to stop the generation of the blank window
Cheers
Gus

Publishing reports using BEx to the Portal

We have a folder called Store_Data (under Public Documents in KM) that has 500 store folders for reports. They are sorted by store number. When publishing reports to those folders from BEx Broadcaster the folders are sorted by creation date which makes it difficult to find the store folders.
Is there a way to have them sorted the same as the portal?

It is sorting fine in the portal but when you access the folder through BEx is not sorted.

Calling a Z-Report using a Function Module.

Hi All,
Kindly provide me help in:
How to call a Z-Report which generates a flat file in the Application server. And which I want to call using a Function Module and display all the fields which are generated in the file.
Steps I've already done:
1) I've created a Function Module
2) Created a structure which I've used in the Tables tab of the FM
3) Used:
   SUBMIT ZSCOMAR
                VIA SELECTION-SCREEN
                USING SELECTION-SET 'Variant'
               AND RETURN.
Output whichI'm receiving:
Only the no. of rows is shown but not the fields individually.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Sreedhar.

you can either :
display the data from the ZPROGRAM(by editing it)
or
by reading the file again in you FM using open dataset, read dataset, close dataset. and display the content

XML publisher report using connected query

dear all,
I defined some XMLP reports with very similiar parameters.
I found a strange issue, all reports using query as the source, they appear in the XMLP report viewer.
But for those using the connected query, all are not able to be found in the XMLP report viewer list.
Anybody has experience on this. Did I miss anything special for the connected query type?
Many thanks.

Is there anybody suffering the same issue?
I double checked the settings of two XMLP report definitions.
No difference, but the one with the connected query as the source can NOT been found.

Calling XML Publisher Report from OAF using the conc programs xml output

Hi all
I am trying to call a report from oa Framework. I have developed the Template in the Ms-Word and for Generating the xml data i used the view object defined in OAF, this approach is working for me...i used the following code to do this in the AM as mentioned in many places...
public XMLNode getEmpDataXML()
OAViewObject vo = (OAViewObject)findViewObject("EmpVO1");
XMLNode xmlNode = (XMLNode) vo.writeXML(4, XMLInterface.XML_OPT_ALL_ROWS);
return xmlNode;
now i want that instead of the view object i should use the xml generated by the report which is registered as concurrnet program with output as xml.
I am submitting the concurrent program and able to get the request id ...
Now from here what should i do.. please suggest...

Hi,
I am thinking of doing something very similar. What i was planning on doing is submitting the request, and then redirecting the user to the concurrent request page. They can then use the standard functionality to view output and get the xml to use the appropriate template.
i would be interested in how you get the concurrent request id from the submitted job.
Many thanks
Rupesh
