Creation of a dashboard link into a report

Hi,
I created a dashboard to display reports folders. A user can access to the link and select the report needed. User doesn't use standard Oracle IHM. I would like to create others dashboards and add it as link into the first dashboard (cannot use the standard to create a tab to display others dashboard. Is it possible to create a report and add inside a weblink to open the others dashbaords?
Regards,

It might be a collation/SMO issue after I do some research, so may I know that have you change the collation of you SQL Azure database? If yes, please try to use default collation and try again.

Dashboard - Link to another report

Hello SPM experts,
We have to create a dashboard and the report in dashboard should have a link which will open up another report in a new window. The dimensions/measures and the layout of dashboard report is not same as that of the report which should open when we click the link.
I am aware that if we use a dimension which has hierarchy in dashboard report, we will get links to move to report using the hierarchy. But is there any option to connect two different reports with links?
Best regards,
Prasanna

Hi Prasanna,
Dashboards in SPM can be simply called as a collection of selected reports. It is not possible to click on a particular report (A) in the dashboard and open another related report (B).
In my opinion the best way to handle a situation where in you need to refer to another report (B) based on a primary report (A) would be to use the hierarchial views while creating the dashboard.

Link from BIP report to P6RiskModule

A client of mine is running BI Publisher 11g. In BIP they have a report summarizing the risk against a project. This report is displayed in a BIP Dashboard. The client would like a link in the report that would take them directly to the P6RiskModule. The usernames and passwords for BIP and P6 are identical, so ideally the link should log the user into P6 and display the risk details as entered in P6.
Can anyone assist?

if you are on 11.1.1.6 version you can do it i think .
check the link below
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E25178_01/bi.1111/e22257/whatsnew.htm#CHDCDBCA
Enhancements to Parameter Display Options
Enhancements to parameter display options include:
Support for radio button and check box display of values
Parameters that are defined as a menu in the data model can now be configured to display the menu options as a list of radio buttons or check boxes. Parameters configured to support one value support the option to display as radio buttons. Parameters configured to support multiple values support the option to display as check boxes.
New options for placement of parameters in the report viewer
Previously the report viewer always displayed the parameters in a horizontal region across the top of the viewer. In this release the display of the parameter region can also be configured in one of the following ways:
In a vertical region along the right side of the viewer
As a dialog
As a separate full page
New report viewer action button to show or hide parameters
This release adds an action button to the report viewer to enable users to hide or show the parameter region. This enhancement complements the new parameter display options. When report parameters are configured to display as a dialog or in a separate full page, the parameter display region is dismissed when the viewer displays the report. Use the Parameters button to redisplay the parameter region to make new selections.
Search added to menus
All parameter menus having more than a specified number of options provide a Search option. For more information, see Section 3.3.1.1, "The Parameter Search Dialog."
Option to remove the Apply button
Reports can now be configured to remove the parameter Apply button. In these reports the action of selecting a new parameter value automatically reruns the report.

Select report row into another report

I got 2 tables, DERESCE and DRRESERV
DRRESC contains all the available Resources
DRRESRV contains the reservation of a Resource per date.
DRRESRV has 2 Foraign key's of the day and the Resource.
The day PK is on another page item.
Objective:
To click on a link in the DERESCE report and load the resourcePK and dayPK into DRRESERV showing on a report or tabularform.
So its almost like a submit, with one of the values on another page, one value being the PK of a report and the button a link in a report.
Can this be done? And how?

Then move your creation process from on submit to on load and make it conditional to fire only if you have a specific request in your link.

Inserting paragraphs into a report based on a certain condition

Hi, I need some advice on the best method to insert paragraphs of text into a report.
I have +/- 100 paragraphs which are in text format, I need to insert these into the report based on certain conditions.
I have tried entering them into the trailer section one after the other and using conditional formatting to display them if the the condition is met. This works well but I ran out of space in the trailer section.
I then thought of saving the paragraphs somewhere on the server as seperate txt files and inserting them into the report using file links,
or I could put these paragraphs into a table and then insert them from there, some of these paragraphs are longer than 4000 characters,
Please advise on the best method
Thank you
Michael

Hi,
If the button and the textfield are on in the same subform then this code should work in the click event of the button
(This is JavaScript code so make sure the code is set to JavaScript and Client on the drop downs in the script window)
(assuming the name of the textfield is TextField1)
TextField1.rawValue = "some value";
If they are in different subforms then you have 2 options
Please note in both these options it is easier if the subforms have names ( I am assuming this to keep samples simple)
option 1 -
use the parent object to move up the tree till you are at the same level as that of the subform that contains the textfield
e.g.
(Click Event of the button)
this.parent.subformname.TextField1.rawValue = "some value";
option 2 -
Use the resolve node to make your way down from the top level of the form
xfa.resolveNode ("form1.subformname.TextField1").rawValue = "some value";
Hope this helps
Malcolm
p.s. I am making assumptions as the image/file you attached did not appear for me.

Insert a link on xml report. The link should open up a document(PDFS).

Is it possible to insert a link in the report? The value would come from a sql query. The link when clicked on would open up the pdf or doc.
Is this done thru a href or by inserting a dynamic hyper link.
The release Release 5.6.2 documentation references how to insert a hyperlink. NOt sure if this will work for me.
I tried it but in the documentation it states:
>
If your input XML data includes an element that contains a hyperlink or part of
one, you can create dynamic hyperlinks at runtime. In the Type the file or Web page
name field of the Insert Hyperlink dialog box, enter the following syntax:
{URL_LINK}
where URL_LINK is the incoming data element name.
>
However the dialog box I am getting when I insert the hyperlink does not have a place to enter the element name. That is, there is no 'TYPE the file or Web page' area that I can see.

hi ashalon,
I did it this way in MS Word.
1. create placeholder for value
2. highlight it and make it a hyperlink
3. enter the url into the address line
So If you have a complete hyperlink in xml element URL_LINK you just have to enter {URL_LINK} into the address line. If you have only a part of the link, i.e only a product name, you can enter "http://www.oracle.com?product={PRODUCT_NAME}".
Hope this helps.

Calling the CSV Export link in a Report Template

I'm trying to have our "download" link appear on the bottom left rather then the default which is to the far right in Look 4.
When I look at the source code, I can see how look 3 and 4 differ - different HTML table set-up and "align=right" for the link.
Unfortunately, looking at the source gives me the direct source for that specific report file not the command to include the csv export file, so I can't include it in a new report template design.
Is there code I can use to include a CSV link in my report template?
If not, how can I place the report download/csv export into my Nav bar region, or some other region?

Michelle,
Typically you'll find the substitution strings documented in the popup help when clicking on the item label. But this one doesn't seem to be listed there. It's documented in the online help though. Click in the help icon in the upper right corner of your page and search for CSV.

Image as a column link in a report

Hi folks,
I want my thumbnail to be the link in my report. I have set my "Link text" as #THUMBNAIL#. In the help for the "link text" it says "Enter the HTML text to be shown as a link. Use an image tag to display images, or pick from the list of default images.
" . I cant get the syntax right for this however... Can anyone help??
thanks,
Rod

Hi Rod,
The best thing to do would be to select one of the image icons (eg, [Icon 1]) and then edit the HTML string that is put into the "Link text" field.
If you pick Icon 1, you get:
<img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#edit_big.gif" border="0" alt="Icon 1">
Now change this to something like:
<img src="#APP_IMAGES##THUMBNAIL#" border="0" alt="Icon 1">
or
<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES##THUMBNAIL#" border="0" alt="Icon 1">
depending on if you selected an application for the image or if it is to be available throughout the workspace.
Regards

External URL Link Into HTMLDB Application

Hi,
I have a non htmldb application that I want to link into my htmldb application via a url so I can run a report, in order to run this report I need to feed in some variables
This link i am using is
http://dev.oraclecorp.com/pls/aitmarvel/f?p=100:8:::::P8_REFRESH_HEADER_ID,P8_SR_NUMBER,P8_TARGET:82,3526357,ADMAT
The variables being
P8_REFRESH_HEADER_ID,P8_SR_NUMBER,P8_TARGET
in this case I want populated with
82,3526357,ADMAT
It goes through single sign on OK and then displays the correct page but the variables have been stripped off.
Any ideas??
Thanks ANDY

Hi,
are there any ideas out there to this question?
I am having exactly the same problem.
What I additionally noticed is that when you hit the link
for a second time, the parameters are passed fine.
It seems to work only when a htmldb session already exists for the application.
I am using "HTML DB as Partner Application".
I have a feeling this problem is more related to the
Single Sign On server...
Thx, Michael

Cannot insert a picture (image - BLOB) directly into a report field?

Hello
I am new to APEX and I am trying to create a table with an image together with an input form and an output report but I am having difficulty in displaying the image in the report field.
My work so far:
1 I am using APEX to generate a table with a BLOB, Filename and Last_Update_Date fields.
2 I have followed the article on the http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/apex/apex31nf/apex31blob.htm.
3 The title is: 'Defining and Viewing BLOB Data in Oracle Application Express 3.1'
4 I have generated the table, form and report.
5 I have downloaded the image as an attachment and inline on the form Ok.
6 I have successfully downloaded an image on the report with the words image as a link in the report field. Note the http path is: http://glkas0892v.greenlnk.net:7777/pls/htmldbDEV/apex_util.get_blob_file?a=475&s=7094501042405784&p=3&d=1360784770040764381&i=1360783771822764369&p_pk1=123&p_pk2=&p_ck=2F17C4FBDE22B25A02026F67AB59D4F0&p_content_disposition=inline
7 I have unsuccessfully tried to insert the image directly into a report field itself. The report displays the picture as a symbol with a cross.
Note the http path is: http://glkas0892v.greenlnk.net:7777/pls/htmldbDEV/apex_util.get_blob?s=7094501042405784&a=475&c=1360779972416764351&p=2&k1=&k2=&ck=4BFA878ADD2028D2E9B127BB03F78B8D&rt=CR
7a I have reduced the size of the images to 20 by 30 pixels but no joy.
Conclusion
The only difference I can see is that in 6 the command in the path is apex_util.get_blob_file? But in 7, unsuccessful, the command in the path is apex_util.get_blob?
Please help me as there must be some one out there who has experienced the same situation.
Thanks
Brian

My colleague has found the answer. A known fault exists within APEX 3.1 in that the Blob declaration must be after the Last update declaration and then the image displays correctly on the report.

Adding Images into a Report

Hey everyone I need some help with images in CR-XI.
I have a db of Items that I sell in my store with all of the specs listed and I want to link the pictures of each item into my report. I cant seem to get the picture to show up in the report. All I get is the OLE box and the file name of the image. The actuall picture does not show up.
Thanks

Thanks for the quick response SKodidine.
I actually figured out the problem I was having. I was using jpeg images and after reading a few notes I tried using bitmap images and now all of my images show up. BUT!
I still have a problem. For some reason all of my images show up in the report very small and pixilated. When I try to expand the image they look horrible. Also, the image file names and file type extensions show up beneath the image. here is a screenshot of it.

Where is the HTML-Code for the Dashboard-Links defined? How to edit it?

Hello everyone,
I'd like to know where HTML-Code for the Dashboard-Links (My Dashboard, insert random Dashboardname here, ...) is defined.
Inspecting HTML-Code via the browser, i'll got the following HTML-Tag:
an <a'' href="...url"... class="CurrentPortal" name="DashboardBannerLink" title="...">Dashboard-name</a''>
What i know is, that i can modify portalbanner.css and edit the style of those links.
But thats not what i want, though. I want to modify the html-code itself, for example change the layout of the table etc, to meet our company's corporate design requirements.
Thats why i tried to find the terms PortalLink and CurrentPortal within the Message-Database (/msgdb).
Unfortunately, i got no results.
As a consequence, I believe HTML for those Links is generated by saw.dll internally and therefore can not be edited.
Now i need someone to prove me wrong ;)
Thanks in advance,
Chris
Edited by: Chris2010 on 16.08.2010 11:11
-had to edit the html tag, as the code was turned into a clickable link when i posted the thread

I still didn't find a solution until now, although i checked almost every xml file, that i was able to find.
At the moment I am sure, that it would be necessary to edit sawm-Parameter "bannerHtml" to meet my requirements. Now, i dont know whether its possible to edit it or not, since those saw-parameters do not seem to be documented on the web.
That's the part, i found in dashboardtemplates.xml (Line: 362)
