Default Exel output using the BI Publisher

Hi All,
I have got a requirement to generate the output in Excel (by default).
I have tried by changing the viewer option and profile settings as discussed in the forum earlier but Its not working for me.
Or is there any way to change the default printing output(SRS window - options - format - from PDF to Excel) programatically in the after report trigger.
Thanks
Arun

Excel output for the xml publisher report when it is [b]scheduled [/b]

How to get the excel output for the xml publisher report when it is scheduled by a apps user? Like what is the user profile option (for the apps user who runs the report) and what are the other things that needs to be taken care of so that only this xml publisher report run by this apps user produces a EXCEL output (When scheduled) ???
Really appreciate it if any one can help me in this regards.
Thanks
Munna

Hi Munna,
For eBusiness Suite (apps user) the report output is stored the same way whether executed immediately or scheduled.,To get excel set the options > output format to Excel. Only the user that submitted the report can view it, or you can get the output file from the server. Or you can set the notify option so that a Workflow Notification is sent when the request completes.

How to publish to an FTB server in iWeb 2 using the File ➙ Publish to Folder option??

I was just given the following advice regarding publishing to an FTP other than MobileMe.
Web 08 does not have that feature (drop down menu to publish from "site" icon). You will need to upgrade to iWeb 3 in iLife 11 in order to get that feature. You can get iLife 11 at the online Apple Store while supplies last since iWeb (and iDVD) have been discontinued by Apple
To pubish to an FTB server in iWeb 2 use the File ➙ Publish to Folder menu option and then use a 3rd party FTP client like Cyberduck to upload the site files.
Follon-on question, can anyone provide more details on how to do exactly what was suggested? I toyed with it and can only get it to publish to a folder on my desktop, but not to an external FTP. (I have already purchased a web-host package, just need to publish to it!)

Okay. When you publish your site from iWeb to a local folder what you will get is one site folder - this site folder will have the same name as you gave your site in iWeb and one separate index.html file.
Your site folder contains an index.html file as well as the separate index.html file. You NEED both.
What you need to do is firstly using Cyberduck or whatever, upload your site folder to your host into whatever folder you need to upload to on the server - could be 'public_html', 'htdocs' or whatever - this is your root folder.
You then need to upload your separate index.html file to your server too, but this index file needs to sit outside your site folder because it needs to point in towards the index.html file that is in your site folder - this is the first page of your site.
You don't delete or duplicate any index files - iWeb produces the two index files that you need when you publish to a local folder - one index file in the site folder itself and one separate index file that sits outside the site folder and points into the first page of your site.
Also, remember to call the first page of your site something like Home or Welcome, but DO NOT name it index.
By the looks of things here you have not uploaded your index files correctly.
What I would suggest that you do is start over - so open Cyberduck and connect to your server and go and delete your site folder and your other index file if it is still there.
Go back to iWeb and publish to a local folder again and notice that you have both your site folder and separate index.html file.
Now go and open Cyberduck again and connect to your server and note where you need to upload your files to.
Now go and upload your Site Folder to your server and once this has finished go back and upload your separate index.html file, but this needs to sit outside your site folder. If you do this, then your site should display okay - as long as your other index file is pointing into to the first page of your site it should display correctly.

Hi,
The events of BDT can be used to default some fields on creating a partner.
For this create a function module for ISDAT. attach that event in BUS7.
In the ISDAT funtion modulethe following code should be used.
For example to set the nationality:
I_BUSDEFAULT-NATIO = 'DE.
CALL FUNCTION 'BUP_BUPA_FIELDVALUES_SET'
EXPORTING
i_busdefault = I_BUSDEFAULT

PDF: Unable to print a document as PDF from APEX when using the BI Publishe

Hi,
From an APEX application, I am unable to print a document in a PDF format when using the Oracle BI Publisher.\
Here is the configuration:
1) Server A is W2K3 and hosts the Oracle BI Publisher server, with IP address ip01.
2) Server B is a OEL5.2 and hosts the database server of the APEX application, with IP address ip02.
3) Machine C is a W7 desktop from which through an URL both the APEX applicationn and the BI server are accessed, with IP address ip03.
4) The APEX application is configured with the following to use the Oracle BI Publisher:
- Printer server: Advanced (requires Oracle BI Publisher)
- Printer server protocol: HTTP
- Printer server host address: ip01
- Printer server port: 9704
- Printer server script: /xmlpserver/convert
- Network services are enabled (at least I did get any warning/error message)
From C, I access the the APEX application through its URL, if I try to download a page by selecting PDF in the download section of the interative report section for that page, I am unable to open if and get the error:
<file>. pdf file can not be opened because the file type is not supported or because it is damaged (because, for example as an e-mail attachment is not sent and correctly decoded)
Yet, still from C, I am able to open any other PDF document.
The same way, still from C, acessing the APEX application through its URL, I have a query report defined with a PDF output format. Then, when I test the report (Test Report in the Report query) for that query, I get the error:
ORA-20001: The printing engine could not be reached because either the URL specified is incorrect or a proxy URL needs to be specified.
At first sight this could be a wong entry in the priinter configuration for APEX. But with this address, through the URL I can log in to the Oracle BI Publisher server.
Does someone has an idea what the problem could be?
Thanks for any tips.

How are you trying to print to pdf?
Don't go via PostScript or Acrobat Distiller, which are old deprecated technology.
You use:
Menu > File > Print > PDF (button bottom left) > Save as PDF…

Can a laptop with VGA output use the Apple Thunderbolt 27" display?

I bought a 2011 Macbook Air and I'm thinking about upgrading my office monitor. The new Apple Thunderbolt 27" display comes to mind.
However, I also have a Lenovo X201 with VGA output, which I would also like to connect to the Apple Thunderbolt 27" display sporadically.
Will the VGA to mini-display port adapter work? If not, does there exist a VGA to mini-display port converter that will work and if so which one?

You are thinking of that adapter backwards. It is not VGA to MDP but is "Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter". This means it will take video out of a a MDP connection and convert it to a VGA connection. It will not go the other direction like you need.
Sorry but that Lenovo just doesn't have the ability to connect to the new display. If it had a HDMI video port like some other Lenovo models, you could adapt from that but I don't know of any VGA to Mini-DisplayPort/ThunderBolt adapters.
Even if you were to use such an adapter, the video card in that laptop couldn't drive a 27" display at the native resolution so it would look very bad.
One other option would be to use the Lenovo X200 docking station which has a full sized Display Port. You would have to use a Display Port to Mini Display port adapter then you could attach the TB cable to it. There is also a USB video replicator that has a DVI-I output then then yet another adapter to get to Mini-Display.
However, both of these options would still be limited by the graphics card at 1920x1080 so it still wouldn't look good.

ALV Tree list output using the Class and method

Hi,
How to get the internal table values of ALV Tree List in classes.
My requirement is i need to store the output values in Ztable of a SAP Transaction of CK86_99.
for this, i copied the SAP Standard Transaction into Z tcode and i am trying to poplulate the output display into Ztable. But this standard tcode CK86_99 is using the classes of ALV tree list to display output.
CL_STRUCTURE_EXPLOSION_TREE -- Class
CONSTRUCTOR - method
Finally in the above mentioned method, i am able to see the output values of ALV tree list in the internal table of mt_output_table.
But these are SAP Standard Class and method.
My doubt is, How to get these internal table values in my Zprogram.
is there any user exit or badi can we use in the method of class???? Actually my system is 4.6C
Please suggest me on this problem.
Thanks in advance

First your getInstance() method returns 'singleton' which you havent declared/init anywhere.
your getAll() method needs to be static if you need to call it the way you are doing.
In your getAll() method u are passing a parameter called patientRecord ... where have you declared/init it.
i think you have to do something like this ... if i have understood you correctly.
/* THIS IS IN YOUR SERVLET*/
Collections c = database.getAll();
out.println(C);
/* YOUR FlatfileDatabase CLASS HAS SOMETHING LIKE THIS*/
public static FlatfileDatabase getInstance() {
return new FlatfileDatabase();
public static Collections getAll() {

5.1 output using the Griffin FireWave

So, here's the thing... I'm mainly a video guy, but I really like to dabble in audio. When I saw the demos at NAB for STP2, I was really excited, but did not ask enough questions about it to know what I needed to buy in order to monitor the 5.1 output. I assumed that I could use the optical output and speakers with an op-in. Wrong, as everyone knows. So after coming on this board and finding out I would need to spend hundreds of dollars more on a MIDI device plus speakers, I was really discouraged.
Anyway, long story short, I bought a Griffin FireWave and a set of Logitech x-540 speakers - less than $200 total for everything.
Now - again - I'm not a pro-audio guy, but in SPT2 with the latest updates, I'm outputting to all speakers. Using the 6 channel tracks and the dial thingy in the timeline, I can pinpoint exactly where I want the sound to be. This is all as of this morning.
I have not tried to output anything I've played with, and one more time, I'M NOT A PRO-AUDIO GUY!!!!!!! So if I'm saying something incorrect, someone please point it out. But if you're looking for a cheap solution to be able to monitor the 5.1 features of SPT2, this could be it.
Best wishes....

I've been doing some more research, as this would be a great low-cost alternative, but am having trouble finding the 'nitty gritty' on this device.
I can very, very specifically move that sound to whichever speaker or set of speakers I want it to go.
So it lets you select which of the six outputs you want to play the track through (not using the panner)? All the information I can find is ambiguous about whether or not these are discrete outputs or decoder outputs.
I found this, which says that it does have a DPL2 encoder, which would allow you to mix in surround sound, but not 5.1.
and it will allow iTunes, QuickTime, or any stereo content to be presented in Dolby Pro-Logic II, since it also incorporates a DPL2 encoder. For those new to Pro-Logic II, this is Dolby's outstanding expansion technology which extrapolates five full-bandwidth channels from any two-channel source. -from http://www.hometheatermag.com/htpcs/107griff/
Is there a way to set it for discrete output using OS X's Audio MIDI Setup utility?
It would be nice if we could get a clarification on the FireWave's capabilities.
Thanks

How can the artist view pictures in music be updated in IOS 7? My device (Ipod Touch 5th) used to have the artist pictures but when I restored it from factory default, it only used the pictures from the album.

Please help. I have updated to the IOS 7 and there was a cool feature in the Music app wherein when you view an album artist, i think apple updates the picture of that artist from their gallery. But when I decided to restore to factory defaults, it never came back and only uses the picture from the albums.

I have the same problem. After a full restore my iphone 5 does not display the artist photos, but it does show the correct album covers once i go into that group. Instead i get a grey box with diagonal writing saying the band name but no picture.

Why did the default save location use the users appdata location and not create an Adobe Premiere Folder in documents.

I have a user that started working on a premiere pro project 2 weeks ago. She then received an update from adobe which she ran and the next day the premiere pro project she was working on was gone. After I looked at found that the save location was in the users AppData\Adobe\Premiere\6.0 folder (which was empty). I would first like to know why by default did it store the saves in the AppData folder? Why was the folder over written after the update?

Cannot open the pdf when using the xml publisher to generate rtf report

Hello Everyone,
I followed the below link to generate a pdf using xml publisher in OAF.

When i try to save the pdf and open it, i get the below error:
Adobe Reader could not open the pdf because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged(for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
Below is the code in CO.

super.processFormRequest(pageContext, webBean);
OAApplicationModule am= (OAApplicationModule)pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);

How do I set up stereo audio tracks as default in Premiere using the ProRes 422 codec?

Forgive me if this has been asked many times before. I have searched but can't find anything that explains it in language that doesn't require an advanced degree in computer engineering.
I am a recent convert for our beloved FCP 7. I am learning to love Premiere dearly - but the audio part of it drives me nuts.
I have exported from FCP a series of files as ProRes 422 movies with stereo audio tracks. I want to bring them into Premiere in the same way. But when I do it squashed everything into a single audio file.
This plays havoc with the panning - especially in mixes that have stereo music mixes. Apart from that it just confuses me.
Also. when I create a new project from scratch in Premiere and I select the custom ProRes 422 setting it only allows ProRes 422 mono audio. I don't see a codec for anything else (ie. stereo).
Am I missing something?
I have looked in all the preferences areas and can't find anywhere to change this. I just want to be able to import simple, basic two track audio (and have it show up the same) as I would in FCP, ProTools and the myriad other editing programs I use.
I also want to be able to set up a basic two track stereo timeline/sequence without having to reinvent the wheel.
Many thanks for any help and your patience. I am slowly tearing my hair out and spending long periods sitting in the corner hugging my knees and weeping.
My specs. Preferred editing codec: ProRes 422
Premiere pro version CS6 (6.05)
Thanks again.

Go to the Project Panel, select all clips and rightclick/modify/audio channels.
Set it to 2 tack and mono.
When you drop the clip onto the timeline the stereo will come in on two tracks.
You can also set this to default in the Preferences under Audio (before importing the clips) (Stereo set to mono).

Unable to print a PDF file using the BI Publishing server

Hi,
I have a BI publisher server version 10.1.3.4.2 on W2K3 43 bit.
I can access through the url that server.
From my desktop I access through an url my Oracle APEX application.
It has been configures with:
Report Printing:
Print Server Protocol: Advanced (requires Oracle BI Publisher)
Print Server Protocol: HTTP
Print Server Host Address: the IP address of my BI Publisher server
Print Server POrt: 9704 (from instllation of BI)
Print Server Script: /xmlpserver/convert
On the page I want to print, it is configured with:
Download:
PDF option is checked.
When I click on Action -> Download -> PDF for this page, I get the error:
<file>. pdf file can not be opened because the file type is not supported or because it is damaged (because, for example as an e-mail attachment is not sent and correctly decoded)
Does someone has an idea what the problem is and where I should investigate further?
Thanks by advance for tips.
Kind Regards.

If you are trying to print to the Adobe PDF printer and that fails, try using print-to-file. Then open the file in Distiller. If the result is the desired PDF, then check for AcroTray running as a background application. Sometimes it has to be restarted, but should be in your startup (you can check msconfig from the start>run menu to see if AcroTray is there).

Streaming data from disk to analog output (using the PCI-6713)

I have a question about the PCI-6713. I want to stream data from the hard disk to all of the card's 8 outputs at its maximum update rate of 1 MS/s. Using single precision (32-bit) variables, this works out to a 32 MB/s transfer rate. That seems to be pushing the limits of most hard disks.
However, the output card only has 12-bit resolution. Is there a way - using LabView or some other software - to store the data on the disk using only 12-bit numbers? This would drastically decrease the transfer rate required.
Thanks for your help.

You could use 8 or 16 bit integers in LabVIEW rather than using 32-bit single precision numbers. I'm sure integers don't have the precision you're wanting though. That is the only way to reduce the size of the numbers you are writing. I am fairly positive there is no way in LabVIEW to do what you are wanting.

How to restrict material output in the report published in the portal

Hi all,
I am new to BI 7. I have a series of materials that start with the material IDs TR52, RL25, XY56 and son on. Now my user wants to view only the materials that are starting with the ID TR52 when he runs the report from the portal. In the material box when I type in TR I am getting the list of all the materials, the same is happening even when I try TR*. What should I do so that I can restrict the report output only to a particular material ID that my user types in?
Please help.
Thank you.
TR.

Hi Friends,
Thank you for the reply.
I tried to exclude the values, but i dont find any chance to exclude them
If i try the same from characteristic restriction, its allowing me to exclude.
Is there any other possibility to restrict these? Please suggest
