Creating multiple reports from one query

Hello Everyone
I are designing crystal reports where 1 query is built for 1 report / 1 sub-report. To improve overall efficiency of reports, I am trying to design multiple reports/ subreports from the same query. All the sub-reports belong to the parent report and they are very similar to each other.
For example: in Webintelligence, we can just create 1 data provider and pull multiple reports from it and display it in multiple tabs.
Can we do the same thing in Crystal reports??
Please advice.
Thanks

Hello,
If you are using WEBI then you have access to BOE. Create a Universe and publish it to the Repository and then you can use it as your data source.
But I think what you are asking is how to query the DB once? Not possible, each subreport will run the query each time it's viewed.
What you may want to do is create a Stored Procedure and get all of you info into one data collection and not use subreports, use grouping to emulate subreports. As an Example ....
You may want to create a case in Service Market Place since you have BOE and work with a Report Design Rep to help you work out the best solution for you.
Thank you

Creating multiple links from one map image in Flash CS4

I have been tasked with creating multiple links from one map image using flash. Each link would go to the main website page with that location. I assume I could create a button for each location on the map but not having a lot of experience any help / tutorial you know of would be super helpful.. Thanks! Not looking for someone to work me thru it but a little guidance would be great!

If I was to answer the problem, I would be giving you what you asked not to be given... the solution. So I'll suggest that you start by researching the getURL() function. That is what AS2 uses for opening web pages.
As for coding a button, I'll recommend the following article for you... it will explain the proper approach to coding a button, which will give you an advantage over others who don't follow it, but instead use the way the article says not to.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/as_bestpractices_04.html
Google is one of the best resources available for learning how to do things with Flash--it's the first place I go when I have a wondering. In general, if you type in the right keywords, you get fairly good search results. In your case, combinations of "AS2", "button", "getURL", "tutorial" would probably work well.

Update multiple UDF from one query generator

Hi All,
I have Form1 with multiple UDF1 which have been key in by users
And another Form2 with multiple UDF2 which exactly same with Form1 UDF1
Is there a way that I can copy multiple UDF at Form2UDF2 from Form1UDF1 instead of creating query for each individual UDF, where in query generator I can select more the one column but only first column will be insert to the single UDF.
Thanks

Hi Firos,
I mean I have 7UDF in the Payment Form where the information to this UDF are come from 7UDF in the invoice form which already created previously so I would like to copy those UDF from invoice to UDF in payment by using single query to capture all the UDF information by doing:
SELECT T0.[DocNum], T0.[UDF1], T0.[UDF2], T0.[UDF3], T0.[UDF4], T0.[UDF5], T0.[UDF6], T0.[UDF7]
FROM OINV T0 WHERE T0.[CardCode] = $[ORCT.CardCode]
From above query can I pass the result directly to UDF in Payment Form? or I need to create one query for each individual UDF.
Thanks

Misspelled Artist Names Create Multiple Artists from One

What to do if Spotify has misspelled an artist's name and created two artist of one. I have seen many exemples. The Last one is Garnett Silk (right) and Garnet Silk (wrong, it shall be 2 tt). The result is that Spotify has one list with Garnett and another song list with Garnet. The songs are 80% the same and 20% unique for Garnett or Garnet. There are more such misspellings, in some cases one artist or band can become three or four. More common is that many songs are created because of misspellings of a song title. Spotify should be more professional than this. Or is it only a big computer running and making the artist presentations and album and song lists? Where can I inform Spotify about such errors? Best Regards Sanmare

I'm not sure I understand from your post what it is that you want to see. You talk about what you do NOT want to see. Do you use an ID3 tag utility to make changes to your list of artists? My personal choice is ID3-TagIt (but there are dozens of other equally capable programs out there). With it, you can modify album names ... enter single or multiple artists ... and even add the composer, song lyrics, etc. However, just having those in the ID3 tag doesn't mean they will be displayed by all software programs (players) ... that's up to the person who writes the application. So even if you do put them in, your player might not display them how you'd like them to be displayed.
I know this doesn't specifically answer your question, but maybe you can rephrase it so we know what it is you want to see on your player's screen when you have multiple artists.

Creating Multiple SubClips from one long "Log & Capture"?

Hi guys,
Can I create as many "Multiple Sub Clips" as I want from one long 60 miniutes "Log & Capture"?
Thanks,
Zia

YES! I always bring all my footage in as one clip.
I use that in two different ways.
One, if you are encoding a DV/DVCAM tape with the meta data: use the start/stop detect and then drag the markers to a new bin and it will automatically subclip each of your shots. Very handy, very quick.
The second way is I will assign the subclip function to a key (the / key in my case) and will use that to subclip.

How to create multiple extract from one map

Hello ,
I have a map which extract data from source and create a output text file. Now, I need to create 10 different files from the same mapping with same format but different name. So I want to generate file1.txt, file2.txt, file3.txt etc . My map currently has one target file , i donot want to create 10 target files operator in the map itself, is there a way to achive this functionality ie I want to call the same map 10 times. Do I have to do it from outside.
Thank you.
Suhail

Hi Suhail
Why not create 10 maps? These don't take up much space, only a few Kb, and you would be able to generate a unique file per map, which would be the correct approach.
If you don't want to have duplicate maps, would the data in the output files be the same or would it need to change based on some condition?
If the data is the same you can do this externally by just making x copies of the original file.
If the data needs to change you either need to have multiple maps, as mentioned at the beginning, or you would somehow need to change the source data. You cannot change the name of a mapped output file, this is because OWB maps use a hard-coded file name making it impossible to change the name of the file dynamically.
However, let's say you are able to change the source data, perhaps using a view. If you had x copies of the view script you could generate it x times, calling the map x times. Each time you would run the map it would generate file1.txt, and you would need to rename it to file2.txt before recompiling the view and rerunning the map to get another file1.txt. This would be renamed file3.txt and you could then repeat the process as many times as you like.
Does this help?
Regards
Michael

Create a report from ABAP Query (SQ02)

Hi, guys.
I must create a SE38- report that simulate the selection of a query in sq02.

Multiple charts from one query

I have a database containing demographic information for
visitors to various sites. I would like to create a separate chart
for each site summarizing its demographics. My SQL statement looks
something like this:
SELECT SITE, RACE, LANGUAGE, GENDER FROM VISITS GROUP BY
SITE
Can this be used to generate a series of charts, one for each
site? About the only thing I have come up with is a loop using
cfoutput's group option and cfchartdata to get individual data
points and I don't think even that would work since I'm not sure
how I can construct a loop to accomplish this. Thought I'd see if
there was an alternative that I overlooked before I threw myself
into it..

How about Query of Queries...
-- Get Main Query: queryMain
-- Prepare first Chart for Site A: querySiteA
SELECT from queryMain where Site = ''siteA'
-- Show Chart with: querySiteA
-- Prepare first Chart for Site B: querySiteB
SELECT from queryMain where Site = ''siteB'
-- Show Chart with: querySiteB
Query of Queries is great for this kind of thing, no need to
go back to the DB, you have the data, now just further filter it
for your needs...

Count number rows in multiple tables from one query

Hi
I was wondering if its possible to have a single query return the number of lines in multiple tables, for example i have the tables
foo1
pk_foo1
and
foo2
pk_foo2
They are not joined together by any contraints. So the pseudo code for the query would be something like
SELECT numrows(pk_foo1), numrows(pk_foo2) FROM foo1, foo2
Thanks!

without a join you get a cartesian product for the query:
SQL> select count(d.deptno),count(e.deptno)
2 from dept d,emp e
3 /
COUNT(D.DEPTNO) COUNT(E.DEPTNO)
            105             105so you need to do a bit of trickery
1 select a.cnt,b.cnt
2 from
3 ( select count(d.deptno) cnt from dept d ) a,
4* ( select count(e.deptno) cnt from emp e) b
SQL> /
       CNT        CNT
         7         15
SQL> select count(*) from dept;
COUNT(*)
         7
SQL> select count(*) from emp;
COUNT(*)
        15

Query based Report (Reports From SQL Query)

Hi All,
I am facing a problem with a report. I need your help.
I am creating a Report From SQL Query (Portal) with some arguments passed at runtime. I am able to view the output, if the query returns few rows ( arount 1000 rows). But for some inputs it needs to generate >15000 records, at this point the page is getting time out (i think!) and showing error page. I am able to execute query from the SQL Plus console ot using TOAD editor. Here the query is not taking more that 2 mins time to show the result.
If i am executing from Portal i observed that, once i give the appropriate input and hit submit button a new oracle process is getting created for the query on UNIX (I am usign "TOP" command to check processes). The browser page will be shown error page after 5 minutes (i am assuming session time out!) , but on the backend the process will be executed for more than 30 mins.
Can i increase a timeout of portal page, how i can do this?
The data returned as a result of the query is sized more than 10 MB. Is caching this much data is possible by the browser page? is the returned data is creating any problem here.
Please help me to find appropriate reasone for the failure?

Can you post the URL that is giving you the page not found error ? I am not sure if I can be of much help though.
In order to increase your chances to get a reply you should also post your question in the Portal Forum - Oracle Application Server Portal

Width of field in Report From SQL Query

I have created a report from SQL query with 15 columns being selected. However, no matter what column width and column type (pixel, char, percent) I enter in the column formatting tab of the report, I cannot get the report to format the column to the width I desire. It is always a fixed width. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Martin

Hi,
Char (used for ASCII format)
Displays the output in the specified number of
characters per line. For example, if you enter 20
in Width, the report displays 20 characters of the
column data in each line. If the number of
characters per line exceeds the specified
number, the remaining characters are wrapped
to the next line.
Pixel
Displays the output in the specified number of
pixels per row. For example, if you enter 10 in
Width, the column data displays 10 pixels of
data per line of the displayed table.
Percent
Displays the output in the specified percentage
of the table. For example, if you enter 25 in
Width, the column data displays in 25% of the
displayed table.
Thanks,
Sharmila

There could be a variety of reasons for the delayed processing of this report. That includes parameter settings for that page, cache settings, network configurations, etc.
- explore best optimization for your query;
- evaluate portal for best performance configuration; you may follow this note (Doc ID: *438794.1* ) for ideas;
- third: for that particular page carrying that report, you can use caching wisely. browser cache is neither decent for large files, nor practical. instead, explore the page cache settings that portal provides.
- also look for various log files (application.log and apache logs) if you are getting any warnings reflecting on some kind of processing halt.
- and last but not the least: if you happen to bring up a portal report with more than 10000 rows for display then think about the usage of the report. Evaluate whether that report is good/useful for anything?

Report from sql query invalid date condition

Hi, I created a Reports From SQL Query. My sql is like
"select column1, column2
from myschema.tablename
where mydate > :p_date1 and mydate < :p_date2"
I am using portal with turkish and english option. If I pass p_date paramaters 'dd-MON-yyyy' format
(for example p_date1 = 23-MAR-2003 p_date2 = 26-APR-2003) in english mode portlet is return correct result,
in turkish mode 'No Row Returned'. I changed my sql statement with
"select column1, column2
from myschema.tablename
where to_date(mydate,'dd/mm/yyy') > to_date(:p_date1,'dd/mm/yyy') and to_date(mydate) < to_date(:p_date2,'dd/mm/yyyy')"
and I pass p_date parameters 'dd/mm/yyyy' format (for example p_date1 = 23/03/2003 p_date2 = 26/04/2003)
but now turkish and english mode No row returned.
How may I write correct sql statament. My database NLS_DATE_FORMAT=DD/MM/YYYY and NLS_LANGUAGE=TURKISH.
thanks.

Hi,
Try this for turkish mode:
Case 1: the 'mydate' column has a kind of a char data type (like char, varchar or varchar2)
and a value like '30/03/2003'
"select column1, column2
from myschema.tablename
where
to_date(mydate,'DD/MM/YYYY') > :p_date1
and
to_date(mydate,'DD/MM/YYYY') < :p_date2"
Case 2: the mydate column has a date type:
"select column1, column2
from myschema.tablename
where
mydate > :p_date1
and
mydate < :p_date2"
In both cases use the following parameter values:
p_date1 = 23/03/2003
p_date2 = 26/04/2003
This should work
Thanks

Scenario of multiple Asset from one AUC/WBS

Hello,
I am having a requirement, where I need to create multiple Asset from one WBS. I checked in the system and able to create more then 1 Asset for WBS.Also if I maintain the distrubution rules for those Asset then settle it accordingly to different Assets.
I just wanted to confirm, will it we the right way of handling this scenario? My main concern is this involves intervention of user for maintaing the settlement rule during final settlement.
Is there any other way to handle this scenario?
Thanks
Sarang

Hello Virendra,
I am not using Investment Managemnt. What do you mean by IM profile?
I understand that I need to maintain the source of cost in Source structure. But even in that scenario the user has to go and maintain settlement rules and create multiple Asset against one WBS.
So how do I tackle it, if client requirement is such that they want to create only one AUC, but during final Asset creation they want to create multiple Assets from one AUC. They dont want to have WBS for each Asset.
Thanks
Sarang
