How to Generate CSV Output from JD Edwards BI Publisher
Hi All,
I have a report "Critical Date Report" - R15611 in JD Edwards 8.11. This report has to be generated as CSV output from BI Publisher which is embedded to JDE.
The purpose we want use BI Publisher is to move some of the data displaying to different place in the page(ex: Move the company address from top left corner to Bottom right corner).
In order to achieve this
1.We created blank rtf template and upload to XML repository using P95600 application
2.Create report definition using P95620 application
3.Here I see the available output types as PDF,RTF,HTML,EXCEL,POWERPOINT and XML,ETEXT(GRAYED OUT)
Which output type we can use for CSV ?
4.Execute the report definition of the critical date report from P95620 to get the XML source
5.This XML source will be loaded into the blank rtf template
6.From this point no idea how to design the rtf template in order to get the CSV output.
7.We did design and output type as excel - but the result data is not in good formatting and alignment*(Headers and footers are repeating).*
If any one has worked on similar type of requirement,let us know how to do or send a sample XML source,rtf template and how the CSV output will be. Or any document link present in Oracle site will be helpful. Please let me know if you need more details.
Thanks in Advance.
VijayHi Vijay,
For CSV output, you need an E-text template (not RTF) that's why its grayed out! You can use Excel as output type and have (No headers and footers) , then you can open the file in Excel and store it as CSV. Does not always display correctly though.
Why are you compelled to use BI publisher? you can use the JDE standard csv output report, (as is used by most EDI systems) of course this may involve a bit of customization if you wants the fields arranged differently.

I have a classic (non-interactive) report that shows some strange behaviour.
It's a simple page with a report region.
On the report attributes page under 'report export' the value for 'Enable CSV output' is set to 'Yes' and 'Link label' has a meaningful discription.
In the development database it works as expected:
When I run the page the data is displayed and when I click the link for csv output I can either save or open the file. In both cases I find the data I expect in the csv file.
In production, however, when I run the page the data is displayed, but when I click the link for csv output the resulting csv file just shows "No Data Found"
I can imagine the report not returning any data, but in that case I shouldn't see any data on screen either.
And it's extra weird that in development it all works fine.
Anybody that can offer any help?
Thanks in advance.Hi Eric
I would never dream of telling anyone not to argue with me :D I've been wrong before and will be again, no doubt!
For the DIV problem, I was more concerned with < appearing in the output rather than the SQL statement itself - generally problems such as this happen when something on the page is incorrectly formed. When you get a chance, in FireFox, install the Web Developer add-on. When this is installed, on the right-hand end of its toolbar, you will see three buttons - the last two tell you about css and javascript errors. For HTML errors, if you have a text editor that has syntax highlighting, do a View Source on the loaded page, take a copy of the source and paste it in to a new document in the text editor. Save this with an HTML file extension. This should colour-highlight everything. It should become obvious what is wrong as you tend to end up with way too much in the same colour. Finally, on the loaded page, right-click on the DIV text and select Inspect Element - this switches you to a heirarchical view of the HTML on the page in the FireBug pane. Follow the tree up from the DIV and have a look at the structue - at some point, something will look wrong.

Apex 3.1.2 - missing column in CSV output
Hi,
We recently moved our application to apex 3.1.2. There is a report with a CSV output that worked fine in apex 3.0.
With the same report in apex 3.1.2, one column is missing in the CSV file but is showing on the report. Show column is set to YES, include in export is set to YES and there is no condition in the column attributes.
Any idea what my cause this problem ?
PatrickI've found the problem. In the print attributes of the report, the column that was missing in the csv file had a column width set to null. When I put 10 in that field (same as the other columns), it suddenly appears in the csv file.
If I set the column width back to null, the column dissapears again. This must come from the upgrade to apex 3.1.2.
To find columns that could have this problem, I suggest you take a look at APEX_APPLICATION_PAGE_RPT_COLS.
+select *+
from apex_application_page_rpt_cols
where include_in_export = 'Yes'
and nvl(print_column_width,0) = 0 -
Csv output filename &item.
hello,
i have a report and enabled csv output.the filename-help say:Specify a name for the export file. If no name is specified, the region name is used followed by the extension .csv.
ok,filename is not specified,and my region-name is
Kundenrechnung Nr. &P35_X_RECHNR.
P35_X_RECHNR is an hidden item and works fine in regionsname,as example regionsname looks like Kundenrechnung Nr. 719
but when i downlaod the file,the filename is Kundenrechnung Nr. &P35_X_RECHNR..CSV
how can i use my hidden item in csv filename ?
[email protected]Hi Christian,
in your case there is a timing problem: The substitution for the region title is part of the region rendering process as is the filename. There is no double-substitution at that point. Imagine the current state to be filename:=NVL(substitute(filename), region_title) where region_title has the value that is handed to the rendering process.
We reference a hidden page item as filename directly, e.g. "&PX_FILENAME..csv"
The item value is calculated by a page process that is executed "On Submit - After Computations and Validations", and that works fine. You could try to set the filename to be "Kundenrechnung Nr. &P35_X_RECHNR..CSV" since P35_X_RECHNR should contain the appropriate value at that time.

Values for htmldb_item.text field do not display in CSV output
HTML DB experts,
I have a report query with the following 2 items in the SELECT statement:
wwv_flow_item.display_and_save(2, DOC_CD, 10) DOC_CD,
htmldb_item.text(3, DOC_DESC, 50, 255) DOC_DESC
I have enabled the CSV output for this report. The problem is, when I generate a csv file, only the DOC_CD (wwv_flow_item.display_and_save) displays. The values for the DOC_DESC (htmldb_item.text) do not display. What do I need to do to get the DOC_DESC to display?
Thanks for your help.
Message was edited by:
[email protected]Items rendered using htmldb_item generate HTML tags on the form, not plain text. You are right, the CSV export excludes them.
Your best best is to create another report region on some other page with the same query except replace all the htmldb_item() calls with regular columns i.e. make it a read-only report and use the "export: CSV" template and put up a link to this page at the bottom of your editable report (instead of the builtin CSV link). This way when you click on this link, it will generate your report and immediately offer to export it to CSV
Hope this helps. -
when i am trying look at the csv outpt even if i am not giving the table header row in the template design it is taking some other header rows and displaying it in the output i need just the data in the csv output
how to solve this issue
Can you give me any idea how to proceed on this issue.
Thank you
Have a Nice Day.If some could specify solution for this, it will be great help for me.
I ll give an example:
if the data model contains 5 columns and if I design template with 2 columns with some aggregation function included .Then if I try to view the same report in csv format, it displays all the 5 columns from the data model without considering the template. But when I try to view the same report in different format (excel, html, pdf, etc) it is displaying as it is uploaded in the bi publisher. So I request someone to give solution for the same
And i want add one more question to this post
when the bi publisher report viewed in a csv format, it includes the column header as well. I want to remove these header from the csv output.

Scheduled Excel/CSV output with 65k rows
Hi Experts,
I just wanted to confirm if in 3.1, can the scheduled excel/csv output handle >65 rows. From what we've read, it is possible and we assumed that's thru manual run. However, we aren't too sure if it is the same when scheduled.
Kind Regards,
MarkHi,
When the Webi excel output is > 65K rows, the 1st tab contains the 1st 65K rows and the rest goes to 2nd tab and forth and each tab has maximum 65K rows.
However, there is a limitation on the total number of tabs can be created in a excel file during this conversion. You will find out when you get there.
Hope this helps,

Hi
we want to restrict some of the columns in the csv output is there any way to do it other than using extext templates.
Thanks in Advance,
Have a Nice dayThanks for your reply .
But i am having some idea will it can be implemented.
as you said it will depend on the datamodel .
Consider i am having 2 datasets in my datamodel for my report to get the pdf,html,excel.
so i want to add one more data set in the same data model with llimited number of columns in the select query and i want to use that dataset in the datamodel in the report generation when i choose the csv ouput.
Is it possible i am using bi publisher 11g.
So if it is possbile i can restrict my output in csv format too.
This is my idea i dont know whether it is possible or not. -
Classic Report CSV output failed to parse SQL query
Hi,
I'm trying to get a CSV output from a classic report. I'm generating the report based on a PL/SQL block that will return an SQL query. But when i download the CSV excel just gives me a:
failed to parse SQL query:
ORA-00936: Missing expression
and shows me the query that the application is trying to parse. I'm also using bind variables (page items) in the PL/SQL block that is returning me the SQL query. I think that the reason that it fails to parse the query is that the query that is shown in excel has no bind variable values.
Anyone got any ideas?Hi Arif,
run your page in debug mode and check out the SQL statement which is actually executed for the report. That might help to diagnose what is going wrong.
If you wish you can also post the report SQL statement which is getting executed.
Regards
Patrick

Creating a CSV output of just the rows of data.
Dear All,
I am trying to create a CSV output from SQL*Plus using the following method... All I need is the pure data, and nothing else.
set verify off
set feedback off
set termout off
set heading off
set echo off
spool <filename>
<my sql statement>
spool <off>
The problem is that the SQL statement is displayed in the output file.
Does anyone know how to switch this off, before I spool the file, or can I spool the file immediately after execution. I.e. Build this into the SQL statement (somehow)???
Thanks
David.If you want to handle 100% the output file you can use the package UTL_FILE but the file is going to be store in the server.
UTL_FILE
With the UTL_FILE package, your PL/SQL programs can read and write operating system text files. UTL_FILE provides a restricted version of operating system stream file I/O.

I need to split a exported field from CSV file generated by Export-CSV Serverlist.csv in VMWare PowerCLI.
Get-VM * | Select Name,Notes | Export-Csv Serverlist.csv -NoTypeInformation
Current CSV output:

Group=5
*** I need to move "Group=5" to next column instead in the same field. Every Note field have Group=x.
Name
Note Group
Server1 Exchange Server at HQ
Group=5If I understand you correctly, you want to take the csv file you just made and create a csv file with three headings: Name, Note, Group. The value for Group is currently listed in the Note field.
Import-CSV Serverlist.csv |
Select Name, @{Name="Note";Expression={($_.Note -split "Group\=")[0]}},@{Name="Group";Expression={(($_.Note -Split "(Group\=)")[1..2]) -join ""}} |

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to customize CSV output files via XSL? When I specify ContentType=text/csv in a request, MII appears to ignore the StyleSheet parameter. Is this expected behavior?
Specifically, my issue is that I'm trying to customize the CSV output so that null string data appears as blanks, not "---".
Thanks in advance.All,
When you put that content type on the end, MII knows to look for IllumRowsetCSV.xsl and applies it. This is done behind the scenes, however you can access the system stylesheets and modify them to get the desired result. Then you can apply them as a transform to a query or a transaction.
http://<server>:<port>/XMII/Stylesheets/IllumRowsetCSV.xsl
Hint: Anytime you want to play with stylesheets, you can open a query > Transformation > Load, and see what predefined XSL files that are out there. Just save (using above format) and modify and you save the time of creating one from scratch

Csv output has database column names instead of aliases as in template
Hi,
I'm trying to publish a csv report to an ftp server in a specific format and layout. The column names need to be customized. I've modified the alias name both in the data model and in the rtf layout template. But the csv still contains the data base names as in column0, column 1, etc. Does anyone know how to fix this? The html or rtf format displays the correct column names but not the csv.
output sent:
Column 0 Jane
Column 1 Doe
Column2 Female
desired output:
Name Jane
Last Name Doe
MF Female

Edited by: user556100 on Apr 30, 2013 2:25 AMAs far as i know CSV output will not consider any template formatting. it will basically give output of all the columns used in select statement of SQL in comma separated format.
It is the default behavior of CSV output in bi publisher
Guru's Correct me if i am wrong -
Im having trouble with one of the reports im working on. Im allowing the user to select from 3 output formats (PDF, CSV, and Data). If i select the PDF it works perfectly (using an RTF template), and if i select DATA it also works fine and returns XML output. But if i select CSV then it comes back empty. No errors... No messages... Nothing...
I have another report that seems to work fine, including the CSV output. This is why it seems baffling to me. The difference between those 2 reports is that the working one uses a SQL query for its data while the one that doesnt work is using a template. Since the template only contains a single query, i did take it out and tried it as a SQL Query but had the same results (blank page).
Im at a loss for things to try. Without any feedback from Publisher, i have no idea where to go. I know that there is data available because several rows are returned with the PDF and Data outputs.
Any suggestions and/or ideas are definitely welcome.
Thanks

</dataTemplate>Yes, you wont get the csv,
CSV is supported only if the xml is having rowset/row tags.
Since you have your own tags G_COMPANY, as the groupings, you wont get the csv from BIP.
So, use the query directly in BIP , it will automatically add the rowset/row tag, and csv generated is supported for that.
even in data template it is supported if you put rowset and row tags as the group names.
or
you have to write the e-text template with each field separated by the comma , or desired separator.
