Conditionally display report in a tab

Hi,
I am building an application that has 3 tabs (Main,Header,Details). I am new to apex and learning things.
Main page has 4 regions where each region has a chart. When user clicks on these charts it should drill to an interactive report on 'Header' tab. This report has a column link which when clicked will drill down to 'Details' tab and displays another interactive report.
I was successfull with the drill down procedure for one chart (Chart1 - AR transactions by Org)
Now for second chart (Char2 - AR receipts by org), if user clicks on the graph it should again go to 'header' tab.
It seems, I need to make the region display on 'Header' and 'Details' tab conditional depending on which chart user clicks on the main page and call the particular SQL accordingly (if am not wrong). Can someone please help me how this can be achieved?
Thank you

Hi,
there are probably many ways to do this so this is just one.
Write a report query something like this:
SELECT id,
name,
CASE
WHEN order_shipped IS NULL THEN
'<a href="f?p='||:APP_ID||':'||10||':'||:APP_SESSION||':::::P10_ID:'||id||'"><img src="edit.gif"/></a>'
ELSE
'OK'
END AS edit_col
FROM orders;
Change according to your requirements.

How to conditional display Report Region based on number of rows returned

I have a page with two Report Regions.
One Region should display if the Query returns 0-1000 rows. The other should display if the same Query returns more than 1000 rows.
The only way I can figure out how to do this is have ANOTHER query in the conditions field for each Region to Select count(*) from etc.
I know there is a #TOTAL_ROWS# value but that is only available after the Region is displayed. Is there some other built-in variable that can be used to put in the Conditions field or is doing duplicate SQL queries the only way?
Any help would be appreciated.

Rather than running your query 4 times (by embedding it in your condition), you can have a region that is not displayed, with a hidden item, and set the value of the item in a before header computation to the count of your query. Now you can conditionally display based upon the value of that item.

Complex conditional display in report table

Hi,
I built a report in a region, and want to make one of the columns conditionally display based on attributes from two other columns in the table. The drop-down for the conditional display only lets me refer to the current item. Is there a way I can reference the other cells in that table row in a PL/SQL expression (e.g.: something akin to #COLB# is not null and #COLC#>1000 ?)
Related question: I'm assuming the reason I can't directly change the source for the report region and can only modify it from the Query Definition tab is because I used a wizard to create it. Is there a way to "undo" this and make the source for the report fully editable? That would also solve the problem, since I could just add a function-derived column to the query.
Thanks in advance,
Keith

One final update and rephrasing of the problem, because maybe there's another way to solve this.
I have a column in a report that links to another page, but the link is only shown if a certain condition is met (which is based on other cells in this table row). I can test for those conditions in my original SQL query, so that a null value in my link column results in no user-clickable link being created. (I have to make sure that a null value appears as null on the report page, too.)
This works fine if the link text is just that: text. Because not meeting the condition returns null, so no text == no link.
Now the only problem I have comes if I want to use an icon (e.g.: the edit icon) instead of link text.
What I really want is for the icon to only appear if a certain condition is met. However, the icon replaces the column value so I can no longer use a null value to prevent the link from appearing.
The original question asked whether I can use other report cells (#foo#) in the conditional display for a cell. If that's not possible, any suggestions on how to achieve the desired effect without resorting to JavaScript?
Thanks.

Conditional display in a SQL-Report/Report Region

Hi,
here I have an example for "Conditional display in a SQL-Report/Report Region". I figured it out in Firefox 3.6.2 using Firebug as development tool on Apex 3.2.1.00.12.
First you have to put the following javascript code in the Page HTML-Header:
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>
Maybe you have to modify the "vd_getBody" function. I'm searching the table cell with having the class "t10data". When you use another theme, there's maybe another class used.
Second is, that you set an static id for your report region. I prefer this structure:
R<app-id><page-id><seq> (Raaaaappppsss) e.g. R094260001010.
First example is to turn off the onMouse-Effect. Maybe on the first or last column definition you put this code in the "HTML-Expression" area:
<script>ex_conditional_tr('R094260001010', #ROWNUM#);</script>#ID#This will call the example function ex_conditional_tr with the parameter
a) the region id
b) the rownum (as oracle always starts with 1 this is the first data row [rownum=0 is the table header row])
Second example is the conditional formatting of a table cell. Put this in the HML-Expression area:
<script>ex_conditional_td('R094260001010', #ROWNUM#, #COLNUM#-1);</script>#ENAME#This will call the example function ex_conditional_tr with the parameter
a) the region id
b) the rownum
c) the cellnum (here we have to subtract 1 to get the "real" cell index)
The "ex_conditional" functions are just a representation of how to get the row or cell node.
Hope this help a bit.
Tom

I would use a CASE statement in the select....
each CASE would be an img src tag for a different button if the button is an image.
does that make sense? I can include an example if you would like...

Conditional display of list box in form (depends on other report column)

Hello,
i have one question regarding conditional display in forms.
I have a tabular form where only one column ("flag") is updateable, all other columns are visible only.
I changed the column "flag" from "standard report column" to "Select list (static lov)", which has the values "yes" and "no".
This works fine. But in the running form i want to display the list box only if the column "status" = 'ERROR'.
The column "status" can have the values 'ERROR' and 'OK'.
When one record has "status" = 'OK', the column "flag" should not display the list box (only empty column row),
when one record has "status" = 'ERROR" the column "flag" should display the list box.
The idea behind is that if a record has "status" = 'ERROR' i have the possibility to confirm that "error" and update the column "flag" with "YES". This should only be possible for errors.
This is my main problem.
I tried with conditional display, but this hides or shows the column for the whole report/form, not on record level...
The second problem then is, that if the column "flag" is changed to "YES" in case of column "status" = 'ERROR', then it should not be possible to change it again to 'NO". At the beginning it is 'NO', but once changed to 'YES' it should not be changeable any more.
Is this possible?
Thank you in advance,
Matthias

Hello Mike
your solution sounds good, but unfortunately it is not working.
None of my 2 columns are displayed, although i tried it as you wrote and the conditions should match...
But i am no sure if this can work. If so, the 2 columns must fuse to 1 column:
ID STATUS FLAG
1 ERROR yes/no => comes from column1
2 OK (null => comes from column2
so "FLAG" must display column1 and column2 in one column. is that possible?
regards,
Matthias

Conditional display of a column link in sql updateable report

Hi There,
I've attempted to look thru the Apex forum about using an Authorization Scheme in an SQL Query (Updateble Report) where I can conditionaly enable (display) a column link based upon a value in the report but alas I cannot find a solution.
What I have is a SQL Query (updateable report). What I want to achieve is dependant on the value of one of the columns in the report query conditionaly display a column link for the row being displayed. For example if the report dispayed the data from emp, dept only display a column link for rows where the deptno = 100 otherwise don't display the column link. Is this possible to achieve?
I've tried to define in the authorizatuon scheme in the where clause of an SQL Statement to reference the report column as #deptno# but this doesn't work.
TIA

Boketi,
I was unsuccessful yesterday in demoing what I believe you want to achieve. It appears that an authorization scheme will not process row by row within a standard report so as to allow a conditional display of a link or any other column attribute. You can conditionally display a column by the use of a page item but this method appears to be all or nothing.
I was successful when I coded the return of the empno via a Case statement but the Link still appeared even though there was no value (empno) to link with. So essence the link to you to a blank for with no PK to read the database by.
SELECT CASE WHEN deptno = 10 THEN empno ELSE NULL END empno,
       ename,
       job,
       hiredate,
       sal,
       comm,
       deptno,
       phone_nbr
FROM   empJeff

Conditional display column in report

Hi,
If we have a single row report of 30 columns, and I want to display only the one with any values but null and hide the null ones, Is there a way to do it?
It's the same issue discussed in this thread conditional display column in report
thanks,
Fadi.

Samara - I suspect there are a few ways to do this, but none obvious or very easy as far as I can see.
You can create dynamic SQL (as Arie and others have suggested) to only include the columns that are not null.
You can build and output the HTML directly to the page, choosing only to include the values that are not null.
You can create a set of conditions that you can apply to the report columns. A very crude example might be 30 hidden page items like 'SHOW_COL1' etc. (not great, I know), or perhaps you could set a hidden page item to a value like '01:02:03:'etc., with the number only being included if the value is not null (so that col3 being null gives you '01:02::04'etc.), so that the condition for each column is 'Text in expr 1 in contained in Item in expr 2', where expr 1 is '01' for column 1 etc.
Sorry, that is a very contrived example, but it's just to illustrate that there's generally a way of doing pretty much anything in APEX. You might create your item containing the comparison expression by requerying the data in this kind of way:
SELECT NVL2(column1, '01', '') || ':' || NVL2(column2, '02', '') || ':' etc.
FROM table
WHERE condition
However, wanting to create a single-row report with nulls hidden makes we wonder what you're actually trying to achieve and whether there's a better way? Could you use a series of page items, for example?
John.

requirement like this
1)First i have to select a customer
2)when i select a values (switch) from the switch select list -the result of the report for a paticular switch .
e;g-p_cust='ABC' and p_switch='XYX'
the output of the report would be the all records for 'ABC' customer for a Paticular Switch that is-'XYZ'

Conditional Display of Interactive Report Based on Field Above

Page one has simple text box entry for a Vendor # with a button that branches to a page displaying information for that vendor. In a region below, I would like an interactive report that displays all of the item and description that vendor provides to our company. I have tried to use the Conditional Display to disply only items in the report but have been unsuccessful. Your help is appreciated!
Thanks.

Hello user2961006 (please tell us your name),
I understand your question to be, "how do I make a report on page two only show rows related to an item entered on page one". Putting a condition on a region isn't the answer here - you want the report to always display, but just with different rows depending on the vendor number entered. A condition on a region is used to either display the region or not.
What you need to do is put a WHERE clause on the SELECT statement that your report is using to get its data. For example, if the item holding the entered vendor number is P1_VENDOR_NUM, the SELECT statement for your report would look something like:
SELECT item, description
FROM my_items
WHERE vendor_num = :P1_VENDOR_NUMNote my_items is a fictitious name. This will tell the DB to only retrieve rows where the vendor number is the vendor number entered by the user.
Hope this helps, I'll gladly accept reward points if it does ;-)

Conditionally displaying different images in a report

Hello. I have a simple report. In one column of it I have a link to another report. Instead of showing the value for the column, I show an image using the column's Column Link's Link Text property.
In the Link Text field, I put an <img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#my_image.jpg"> tag.
Works like a charm - on the report the column displays little icon images that can be clicked on that take the user to a different page.
I would like to conditionally (based on the actual value of the column's row) display two different images. Think of a green Up arrow vs. a red Down arrow.
How can I do that?
Or can I at least have the image above conditionally display and if the condition is not met, not display anything?
I notice each of the report's column's attribute page has the Conditional Display section. How does work for a column?
Thanks
Boris

Use a case expression in the query, e.g.
case
when x <= 50 then 'down.png'
else 'up.png'
end icon
...and change the Link Text field to
<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES##ICON#" alt=""/>

Hi,
If you want to show a report only when there is a record on the page that is being edited, you can make the report region conditional on the hidden primary key page item being NOT NULL.
For example, if your page is to edit an EMP record, there would be a hidden P2_EMPNO page item on page 2. This page item will have a value when you are editing an existing record but will be NULL for a new record.
Edit you report region and go to the Condition, in the Condition Type setting, select Value of in Expression 1 is NOT NULL and in the Expression 1 setting enter in the page item name - for example P2_EMPNO

Conditionally displaying tabs

I have a page that I want to call in two different methods.
1. I want to display the page with tabs
2. I want to display the page as a popup and therfore do not want the tabs to display.
Is it possible to conditionally display the tabs?
Thanks

Brian,
Standard Tabs and Parent Tabs both have condition attributes. If your popup page URLs can include a certain keyword in the request value field (between session ID and debug positions in the f?p URL), you could make the tabs conditional on that request value.

Conditionally display button in a report

Is there a way to conditionally display (or disable) an edit button that is displayed on each row of a classic report in version 3.2 ?
ie. lets say an orderShipped field exists. If the orderShipped is null (not yet shipped), that row will display (enable) the edit button. If orderShipped exists and the date is displayed, the order button is hidden (or disabled).

Hi,
there are probably many ways to do this so this is just one.
Write a report query something like this:
SELECT id,
name,
CASE
WHEN order_shipped IS NULL THEN
'<a href="f?p='||:APP_ID||':'||10||':'||:APP_SESSION||':::::P10_ID:'||id||'"><img src="edit.gif"/></a>'
ELSE
'OK'
END AS edit_col
FROM orders;
Change according to your requirements.
