Custom report - Can't customize font / table width etc

So i'm authoring my first report - that works fine; however I can't seem to figure out how to customize the font / table width etc. I'm creating an RDL file from Report Server Project Wizard in Visual Studio and in there i'm changing font sizes and table
widths and I can see its changing in the RDL file's XML. I then plug the RDL file into my managment pack and import it. I run the report and the results always have this huge font and the table widths don't change. Anyone have any idea what i'm missing or
why that would be happening? heres the RDL file for reference:

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I did some digging and found a link that might help you/have an answer.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14850503/change-default-font-ssrs-visual-studio
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/574003/modify-the-default-font-family-for-sql-server-business-intelligence-development-studio-while-creating-a-report#
If you click on work around someone posted that they were able to modify the default font in visual studio.
"If I am not mistaken, you can update your Report.rdl template file in visual studio
to use the default font you wish to use.
navigate to this location (where x is your visual studio version):
C:-\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio x\Common7\ide\PrivateAssemblies\ProjectItems\ReportProject
copy report.rdl to an already created report project.
Add the report to your report project
Update the default font where applicable.
Copy the updated report.rdl back to the location above and that is it.
The next time you open your project, you will be using the update rdl file as your
template.
You can do this as many times as you want.
Use this link as a reference

Custom Report: Can you hyperlink to a task or requisition?

Custom Report: Can you hyperlink to a task or requisition?
When defining, configuring a custom form based report, how do you hyperlink to the task item or requistion?

Hi
I've had this one answered with our yes! hours, I'm sure it came up in the training too - I'm assuming you are using advanced reporting?
If your requisition URL is http://servername/RequestCenter/myservices/navigate.do?requisitionId=18954&query=requisition you would need to create a colum in the report with the expression
'http://servername/RequestCenter/myservices/navigate.do?requisitionId=' || cast ([REQUISITIONID],VARCHAR(10)) || '&performerID=&query=requisition'
You would then need to insert a hyperlink type column and make the value of the computed value your hyperlink - I chose to make my ReqID the display name. As you are hardcoding the URL in, you will need to change it as you migrate between environments.
Hope this helps - it is going to make drill downs a lot easier for us now.

Custom Report Layout with mutliple child tables

I am trying to create a custom report layout (using Bi Publisher) where I have parent data (multiple jobs on a page) and several child tables for each job (JobDays and JobStops) and several child tables for JobDays (JobDayProviders, JobDayCrew). On the apex screen, I have a join on Jobs and JobDays and I am using functions to string each child row value for JobDayProviders and JobDayCrew together and putting a <br> in between so that they will format on separate lines within a cell. It works fine on the screen but when trying to print to pdf, it ignores these line breaks. I have also tried using <br></br> (saw an article that said just use HTML in bi pulisher) which puts two lines in between each value on the screen and is still ignored on the pdf.
for example:
Table hierarchy:
Jobs table
Job Stops
Job Days
Job Day Service Providers
Job Day Crew
Report Layout per job (will have mutlipe jobs to print, just printing 1 day per job):
Jobs.col1 JobStops.row1 JobDay.col1 JobDayProviders.row1 JobDayCrew.r1
JobStops.row2 JobDayProviders.row2 JobDayCrew.r2
JobDayProviders.row3
Thanks,
Linda
First, is there a way to get bi publisher to recognize the line breaks? If not, what is the best way to create a custom report for this scenario? I tried to create a report query with mutliple queries, but cannot determine how to link the child queries to the paren query. I have seen an example where a button is pressed to print one parent row and the id of that row is saved and referenced as a parameter in each of the queries, but if printing mutliple parents on a report, how would I link the child queries to the parent query?

Helen,
The best way for your case is to use a content folder and customize it whichever way you like.
however, your question is about reports. the problem in reports is this that you have to use just one single query and the layout of the results of this query are displayed in a peculiar way.
anyway. something similar but not exactly the same as what you wanted do is the following.
use a query like the following: (with a union in between)
SELECT COLUMN1,NULL , NULL ,NULL ,NULL
FROM my_source_table
WHERE myCriteria LIKE 'SoAndSo%'
UNION
SELECT NULL,COLUMN2 , COLUMN3, COLUMN4, COLUMN5
FROM my_source_table
WHERE myCriteria LIKE 'SoAndSo%'
---------- Now, have the following codes in the layout segments:

<table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" width="20%" align="center">

<tr align="center">
<td><table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" width="30%" align="center">
<tr align="center">
<TH><#COLUMN1.FIELD#></TH>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
<TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN2.FIELD#></TD>
<TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN3.FIELD#></TD>
<TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN4.FIELD#></TD>
<TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN5.FIELD#></TD>
</tr>

<TR><TD></TD></TR>
this should produce a report with a table structure (you may see the whole if you give BORDER="1" in the main table tag). Within this table, the first column of the first row should be showing top-leftmost column value once (COLUMN1 value) and then the next rows would show last four column values as a table block on the right-bottom part.
with kind regards,
naqvi

CUSTOM REPORT PROBLEM - REP-1213

I am a student trying to complete a project. I developed a
"custom" report form which uses 5 tables to generate the report.
I have entered the 'fields' at various locations on the report
form and when I run the report I get the following error message:
"REP-1213: Field 'client_id' references column 'CLIENT_ID' at a
frequency below its group."
I have presented this problem to my instructor who does not have
a solution to resolve this problem for me. Is there a solution
for this? Or ... does Oracle not allow for 'custom designing'
of reports? How does someone develop a custom made invoice or
other report for a client without encountering these problems?
Anybody's assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Here is some information that may be of help. This is straight
from Oracle. read the part on FREQUENCY ERRORS carefully.

P.S. reportwriter frames have kicked manny asses!!
Good luck.
Document ID: 9006913.61
Title: Understanding Frames
Revision Number 0
Product: Oracle Reports
Platform: GENERIC
Abstract: This document provides a better
understanding
of frames and the layering concept.
Also
discusses frequency errors.
Keywords: REPEATING;FRAME;VARIABLE;FIXED;EXPAND;
CONTRACT;FREQUENCY;
INTRODUCTION
There are two types of frames: Repeating frames and non-repeating
frames.
Each is a visual representation of actual 3GL code that underlies
the action
of fetching and printing the rows selected from tables.
Non-repeating frames
act as containers and can be mapped back to the pseudocode: BEGIN
and END.
Repeating frames are representations of the Fetch Cycle and can
be mapped to
the pseudocode: WHILE NOT END OF TABLE and END WHILE.
Graphically, frames are stacked one atop the other. This may not
be
immediately apparent. It is difficult to distinguish which frame
is beneath
another. A quick way to see the three-dimensional layering is to
change the
color of the frames. Make each frame a different color. This
will create a
three-dimensional effect as frames above will partially obscure
those beneath
it. You will also notice the layering structure when using the
object
navigator in Reports V2.5
NON-REPEATING FRAMES
Non-repeating frames are not record-related. They print as often
as the
object in which they are enclosed, or to which they are attached
by an anchor.
They do not have a print direction.
REPEATING FRAMES
Repeating frames are place holders for records. Repeating frames
print once
for each record of a group and control record-level formatting.
Reports will
generate one repeating frame for each group when you create a
default layout.
Reports will place containers of columns inside of the frames.
Each repeating
frame retrieves only one row in its fetch cycle for any one
repetition. Until
it is constrained by another frame, it will repeat itself until
the while loop
condition can no longer be satisfied.
VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL SIZING
The Vertical Sizing of a repeating frame will default to FIXED if
all the
objects in the repeating frame are fixed. If the repeating frame
encloses an
object (e.g. field, frame) that grows, then the vertical sizing
defaults to
VARIABLE or EXPAND.
FIXED
If the Vertical Size of the frame is FIXED then the object's
height is the
same on each logical page, regardless of the size of the objects
or data
within it. Truncation of data may occur. The height of the
object in the
layout editor is the actual height of the object at runtime. No
special
symbol is indicated on the frame in the layout editor.
VARIABLE
If the frame's Vertical Sizing Attribute is VARIABLE and there is
nothing
below it, it collapses. For example, if it normally is four lines
long and
only one row is returned, then it will not print three blank
lines but will
actually collapse the output to one line. If you drag the
position of the
fields downward, the space above will not collapse because of the
IMPLICIT
ANCHOR. The object will expand or contract vertically to
accommodate the
objects or data within it. The height shown in the layout editor
has no
effect on the object's height at runtime. The vertical sizing
attribute
functions as if you used a combination of contract and expand. A
diamond
symbol is indicated on the frame in the layout editor.
EXPAND
If the frame's Vertical Sizing Attribute is set to EXPAND, it
will begin at a
minimum size defined by the frame, and will expand as necessary
to accommodate
more data or lines that exceed the length of the column. An
equal sign symbol
is indicated on the frame in the layout editor.
CONTRACT
If the frame's Vertical Sizing Attribute is set to CONTRACT, the
vertical size
of the object decreases if the formatted objects or data within
it are short
enough, but it cannot increase to accommodate larger data.
Truncation may
occur. A circle is indicated on the frame in the layout editor.
FREQUENCY ERRORS
You may receive frequency errors when a repeating frame is moved
or deleted,
thus changing the layering of the frames. Often, users may
attempt to correct
this error by adding the deleted frame back, but this does not
fix the
problem. The existence of the frame is not enough, even it is
does not
overlap other objects in the layout. The frame must also be in
the right
position within the hierarchy. In addition to recreating the
deleted frame,
you must push the new frame to the right layer using the ARRANGE
option on the
Layout menu.
If you move an object outside its native frame, then you must
enclose it
within a repeating frame to group it within the same loop.

Incompatibility for custom Report is not working properly

Hi Gurus,
Need your help to diagnose the issue here.
The problem here is as under
We have a custom report CP1 which fills a table T1 during the process (table is truncated in the begining of the procedure). This CP1 is set incompatible to itself so that table architecture will work properly.
but the problen here is the next run starts ( 2sec, 5 secs or 10 secs) prior to the actual completion of the last run.
the data is as
CONCURRENT_ REQUEST ACTUAL_START ACTUAL_COMPLETION_
PROGRAM_ID ID                DATE     DATE
138361     3033673     7/3/2012 10:31:46 AM     7/3/2012 10:57:13 AM
138361     3033671     7/3/2012 10:28:47 AM     7/3/2012 10:31:42 AM
138361     3033670     7/3/2012 10:25:22 AM     7/3/2012 10:28:48 AM
138361     3033669     7/2/2012 7:07:21 PM     7/3/2012 10:25:37 AM
138361     3033665     7/2/2012 7:05:10 PM     7/2/2012 7:07:15 PM
here as you see the req 3033670 starts @7/3/2012 10:25:22 AM whereas the req 3033669 ends at 7/3/2012 10:25:37 AM (though we have terminated the 3033669 ) similarly for 3033670 and 3033671.
the following query is giving 1 row
select * from FND_CONCURRENT_PROGRAM_SERIAL
where RUNNING_CONCURRENT_PROGRAM_ID = 138361 is
We have bounced the CM after setting the incompatibility as per the
Setting up Incompatibility Rules for Custom Reports [ID 107224.1] suggested by Hussein on this forum.
This is happening on our prod env. kindly suggest something.
We are on 12.1.1 (r12).

Hi Srini,
We have raised a SR with oracle for this it seems to be a bug in 12.1.1 release I will update the same once I got any fix or patch from oracle.
from the intial investigation it seems to be that the imcompatibility wit itself feature is not working as expected.
Also this is the latest case
CONCURRENT_
PROGRAM_ID REQUEST_ID ACTUAL_START_DATE ACTUAL_COMPLETION_DATE COMPLETION_TEXT
150364     3036174     7/3/2012 4:55:03 PM     7/3/2012 4:57:04 PM     Normal completion
150364     3036178     7/3/2012 4:55:57 PM     7/3/2012 4:57:47 PM     Normal completion
150364     3036181     7/3/2012 4:57:27 PM     7/3/2012 4:58:09 PM     Normal completion
the request id 3036178 should have been started after the completion of 3036174 ie after 7/3/2012 4:57:04 PM but it actually starts 7/3/2012 4:55:57 PM
hope this give the better understanding for the scenario here.

Custom report layout question...can't find any answers anywhere

COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN3
COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN3
COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN3
COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN3
where COLUMN1 is the same value, always per report; COLUMN2 and COLUMN3 vary.
What I want is:
COLUMN1
COLUMN2 COLUMN3
COLUMN2 COLUMN3
COLUMN2 COLUMN3
COLUMN2 COLUMN3
In the report layout editor, Body section, this is what I see:
<TD ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN1.FIELD#></TD>
<TD ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN2.FIELD#></TD>
<TD ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN3.FIELD#></TD>
so #COLUMN1.FIELD# must be some kind of array, but I am not finding any documentation anywhere on how to reference the individual values. All I need is the very first value of the COLUMN1 variable. Once I have that value, I can put it where I need it, but I can't get at that value, just the array.
I have searched portal center, the app server documentation, html documentation. I have googled everything I could think of, but came up with nothing. I found a similar question on this forum, but no one responded with an answer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Helen,
The best way for your case is to use a content folder and customize it whichever way you like.
however, your question is about reports. the problem in reports is this that you have to use just one single query and the layout of the results of this query are displayed in a peculiar way.
anyway. something similar but not exactly the same as what you wanted do is the following.
use a query like the following: (with a union in between)
SELECT COLUMN1,NULL , NULL ,NULL ,NULL
FROM my_source_table
WHERE myCriteria LIKE 'SoAndSo%'
UNION
SELECT NULL,COLUMN2 , COLUMN3, COLUMN4, COLUMN5
FROM my_source_table
WHERE myCriteria LIKE 'SoAndSo%'
---------- Now, have the following codes in the layout segments:

<table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" width="20%" align="center">

<tr align="center">
<td><table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" width="30%" align="center">
<tr align="center">
<TH><#COLUMN1.FIELD#></TH>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
<TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN2.FIELD#></TD>
<TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN3.FIELD#></TD>
<TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN4.FIELD#></TD>
<TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN5.FIELD#></TD>
</tr>

<TR><TD></TD></TR>
this should produce a report with a table structure (you may see the whole if you give BORDER="1" in the main table tag). Within this table, the first column of the first row should be showing top-leftmost column value once (COLUMN1 value) and then the next rows would show last four column values as a table block on the right-bottom part.
with kind regards,
naqvi

Adjusting table width in report

Hi
Is there an attribute which I can set to adjust the width of my tables or one of its columns? I have generated a report using IPMSG_USER_TABLE_FROM_SQL element. The plugin guide has no reference on this, but I noticed couple of reports under Reports main tab have custom column width. Currenly width of the table is governed by the width of the each individual column headers.
Also is there a way using which I can browse the available oracle namespace which list all these elements/classes and their respective attributes.

Sanjay

Hi Craig,
As per your instructions I attempted replacing the variable part (target name) of my URL with the values from the database. But none of my trails succeeded.
Please have a look at below code and point the possible correction needed.
DECLARE
-- Declared a variable to hold target name
l_target_name VARCHAR2(256);
BEGIN
-- Display a link back to Load Balancing Status Report
l_param_values := MGMT_IP_PARAM_VALUE_LIST();
l_param_values.extend(3);
l_param_values(1) := MGMT_IP_PARAM_VALUE_RECORD(
'oracle.sysman.eml.ip.render.elem.TextParamBean.textMessage',
'Return to Load Balancing Status Report');
l_param_values(2) := MGMT_IP_PARAM_VALUE_RECORD(
'oracle.sysman.eml.ip.render.elem.TextParamBean.textStyleClass',
'OraTipText');
-- Below parameter has no effect here even if enabled, my report takes 3 parameters of which 3rd parameter is target guid which Iam using here
-- l_param_values(3) := MGMT_IP_PARAM_VALUE_RECORD(
-- 'oracle.sysman.eml.ip.render.elem.sqlStatement',
-- 'SELECT TARGET_NAME INTO l_target_name FROM MGMT$TARGET WHERE TARGET_TYPE=''plugin_adx'' AND TARGET_GUID=??EMIP_BIND_PARAM3??');
-- If I use like this I am getting java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01403: no data found ORA-06512: at line 911
SELECT TARGET_NAME INTO l_target_name FROM MGMT$TARGET WHERE TARGET_TYPE=''plugin_adx'' AND TARGET_GUID=??EMIP_BIND_PARAM3??
l_param_values(3) := MGMT_IP_PARAM_VALUE_RECORD(
'oracle.sysman.eml.ip.render.elem.TextParamBean.textDestination',
'/em/console/target/homepage/reports?action=generate&type=plugin_adx&title=Load+Balancing&owner=SYSMAN&target=' || l_target_name || '&ctxType=All+Targets');
l_curr_order := l_curr_order + 1;
l_curr_row := l_curr_row + 1;
l_element_guid := mgmt_ip.add_element_to_report_def (
p_report_guid => l_report_guid,
p_element_name_nlsid => 'IPMSG_STYLED_TEXT',
p_element_type_nlsid => 'IPMSG_ANY_TARGET_TYPE',
p_header_nlslid => null,
p_element_order => l_curr_order,
p_element_row => l_curr_row,
p_parameters => l_param_values,
p_targets => null
In each of above trails my URL has a missing target, as a result back navigation is not succeeding.

Can you make table width editable in a template

I am new to html and am trying to use a template to create a
site that will eventually have 10-12 pages. All of the pages will
have the same basic design, but some need 1 main body section and
some need 2 (1 main and 1 smaller off to the side). After doing 4
pages, I realized I could use a template so I wouldn't have to
re-enter all the links in the nav bar, etc., but if I do a page
with just one main section, I would like that section to be wider.
The template will not allow me to adjust the table. Is there a way
to make the table width editable/adjustable? Thanks for any help
you can give me... I'm sure to have many more questions once this
gets solved!

Well, it's OK, but I'm not sure where you want to go with
this. I'm not
crazy about how you have used the CSS - there are things
there that I think
are unnecessary....
Consider this -
<style type="text/css">

</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="banner"></div>
<div id="spacer">Content for id "spacer" Goes
Here</div>
<div id="welcome">Welcome to the Agoura High School
Parent Faculty Club
(AHS
PFC) </div>
<div id="welcome2"> Your source for all the latest PFC
news and
information </div>
<div id="BlueSpacer"></div>
<div id="main">Content for id "main" Goes
Here</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Don't get into additive trouble with percent sized fonts.
Remember, when
you have an element with font-size:100%, that's 100% of 80%,
and when you
have one with font-size:60%, that's 60% of 80%.

ILearning Custom Report on Custom Table

Hi
I want to create a custom report on my own (custom) tables.
- I created my table in the needed schema (where are the iLearning tables are, like ILA_USER)
- I created my custom report, for starters: "select * from own"
But every time I get an error saying: table or view not exits.... (ORA-00942)
Is the table choice for reports limited? (I think that because of the Table Definition button and list)
Any suggestions/ideas?
(please send it to my email address: [email protected])

you can access the custom tables in ilearning reports by
1. creating public synonym on custom table or
2. if you do not have permissions to create public synonym then grant select on custom table to ilearn_rpt
then use this syntax
select * from custom_schema.custom_table
or
select * from custom_table

Thanks,

I can give you a 30,000 foot answer, but to get down to ground level I would have to know your system. There is way to much missing information in your request to give you a definite answer.
Employee Number - if you are using LDB PNP/PNPCE to run your report then it is the field PERNR-PERNR.
Name - IT/PA0002-NACHN -Last Name, IT/PA0002-VORNA-First Name.IT/PA002-MIDNM-Middle Name. Depending on your system configuration these fields are also stored on IT/AP0001-SNAME (Last Name-FirstName) or ENAME(First Name, Middle Name, Last Name)
Original Hire Date-IT/PA0041-This stores multiple date types with a specific code to identify what each one is. You will need to know the code for OHD.
Adjusted Hire Date - same as above
Salary Class- not sure what you are talking about, but salary information is stored on IT/PA008
Empl Status - IT/PA000-Stat2
Classification-not sure what field you are talking about, but IT/PA0001 is where this type of information is stored
Accounting Unit-same as above
Activity(WBS)- now you are getting complicated. This is stored in Cost Distribution HRT1019-POSNR, but you have to know how to connect the dots to get there.
Accrual Beginning Balance(Hours)-I would go to the ABWKONTI table in the Time Cluster for this fields ANZHL & KVERB
Accrual Beginning Balance(Dollars) - this will probably have to be computed
Used(Hours)-You can either compute this balance by computing the difference between the Beginning/Ending balances or read back through the appropriate Time Cluster Tables or total IT/PA2001 and IT/PA2013.
Used(dollars) will probably have to be computed
Other/Manual Adjustments(Hours) - not sure but you may be looking at IT/PA2013
Other/Manual Adjustments(Dollars)- will have to be computed
Accrual Ending Balance(Hours)-I would go to the ABWKONTI table in the Time Cluster for this fields ANZHL & KVERB
Accrual Ending Balance(Dollars) - this will probably have to be computed
Vested Status - I have no idea
Plan Code-Plan Code for what(Health Ins, Life Ins, Retirement Plans, Flexible Spending?)
Plan/Description-see above

How can I open a customized report in a new window?

I am trying to create printable views for my reports that are published as portlets. In specific, I would like a link to open the report up in a new window where the user can print at. I have figured out how to do this with the default report created. However, after a user has customized the report, is there a way to open the customized report in a new window?

Hi
I do not think it matters whether your reports portlet is a default one or a customize one. I think whne you place the portlet, you can specify in the property to open up the result in new window. I think it is common feature of Portal.
Thanks
Rohit

Yes, that's the obvious answer I tried many times. THis setting only changes the font I type and send. Everything I receive, no matter where it comes from, including your email suggestion I just printed, comes in at about a 4-point font.
I can increase the font when reading the email, but it's stuck when printing.

Custom report - Can't customize font / table width etc
