What I had to do is create a query using query builder. This works fine; it's when trying to add the column to an existing query is where the data inconstancy error occurs. One thing you have to keep in mind is it will only work using the query builder in conjunction with the report wizard; I am not sure why. To incorporate the comments into an existing frame you will have to cut the frame created by the wizards and copy it into the existing frame. Otherwise the column name will not show in the source list of the property Inspector.
Good Luck

  • Using CLOBs in oracle Report Builder

    I want to select all the data in a CLOB column using SQL Navigator by just doing
    select entry_note
    from chartentries;
    just as you say in your example by it just gives me back a result of (ORACLOB).
    If I do
    select to_char(entry_note)
    from chartentries;
    I get this error.
    If I do
    select dbms_lob.substr(entry_note,4000,1)
    from chartentries
    I get this (there’s more up to 32000 characters in a clob) and these weird squares which I think are CR (carriage returns) or LF (line feeds). I don’t want to see those characters and I would like to retrieve the entire CLOB in one swoop without doing data manipulations of substringing.
    Using the same data in Oracle Report Builder, I want to select all the data in a CLOB column into a field in a Paper report layout but I keep getting errors, ora-6502, and I've found out that I am restricted to 4000 characters and in Report 9i it looks like the largest field you can have is 4000 characters. My CLOB information can be up to 32000 characters long or longer and I do not want to substring out 4000 characters at a time into separate fields. In Crystal reports there is no problem just selecting the clob in a simple query and it is there in one shot. I would have thought by now that Oracle would have changed its development tools to be able to handle Clobs simply without any manipulation. Does anyone know how to do this in Report builder? I just have a simple query:
    select entry_datetime,
    to_char(replace((entry_note),chr(13))) as entry_note
    from chartentries
    where patient_id = 49741
    Another thing I want to do, is call this Oracle report from a PL/SQL block passing several parameters to the report and also call a Crystal report from a PL/SQL block passing several parameters to the report. Does anyone know what the commands are?

  • Oracle report builder  v 10.1.2.0.

    HI
    I would like to know how to create parameters and link them to report on oracle report builder v 10.1.2.0...
    thanking in advance

    One Option is to create a parameter-list and pass it through to the report when called from forms.
    v_list_id     ParamList;
    v_list_id := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('...');
    And then use the ADD_PARAMETER(v_list_id, ...) Built-In.
    Call the report and pass the parameter-list to it.
    In reports, create a user parameter having the same name as given in the ADD_PARAMETER Built-In.
    In the SQL-Query-Statement Window, the parameter may then get assigned in the WHERE-clause of the quer using e.g.
    WHERE MYCOLUMN = :PARAMETER_NAME
    Hope this helps.

  • Passing SQL-Parameters to Oracle-Reports from java

    hello,
    i want to write an application in the following way:
    on a java-frontend an user can select values for different
    parameters. these values should be to transferred to the sql-
    query of the reports rdf file. what is the syntax of an
    parameter passed from java to oracle reports.
    does this work with runtime.exec()... ?
    does anybody have an example.
    any help would be very appreciated.
    greetings
    Thorsten Lorenz

    In order to pass the parameters to report rdf, you can create user parameters in the oracle report builder, hook up the parameters with query. For example, you can create user parameter P_DEPTNO, then create a sql query: select * from dept where deptno = :P_DEPTNO. When you run this report, you give P_DEPTNO=10 as parameter, the rdf will generate report that only prints out department 10's information.
    Once you have this kind of report created, you have several ways to achieve what you want.
    1. use rwrun60. In your java program, you can invoke rwrun60 via runtime.exec(cmd) where cmd = rwrun60 report=dept.rdf userid=scott/tiger@orcl destype=file desformat=pdf desname=dept.pdf p_deptno=<value_from_java_app>
    2. similarly, use rwcli60. the cmd would be:
    cmd = rwcli60 server=repserver report=dept.rdf userid=scott/tiger@orcl destype=file desformat=pdf desname=dept.pdf p_deptno=<value_from_java_app>
    3. use rwcgi60. Instead of using runtime.exec, you should use java URL object to run the report in the web environment.
    option 2 & 3 takes advantage of powerful functionality of reports server, and it is much more scale than option 1.

  • Oracle Reports Builder X Oracle Portal - Integration

    Hi everybody
    I've created some reports with Oracle Reports Builder. Then I saved them as a JSP file.
    I can view these reports in a normal WEB page, without problems. All that I need is to call the page with the parameters.
    Now I need to deploy this report as a portlet, inside the Oracle Portal.
    So, I've read the document "Publishing Reports to the WEB" (http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/docs/a92102_01.pdf) and I've followed the steps to run the report (JSP file) as a Portlet.
    I've done the following:
    - I've created a Database Provider
    - I've created the "Report Server Access"
    - I've created the "Report Definition File Access"
    Until this point, everything is ok, I can "Run" and "Run as a Portlet" the report.
    So, in the next class, "Adding the Report Portlet to a Page" (Page 8-8), the report portlet simply doesn't appear in the Portal DB Provider to wich it belongs!!! :-(
    Has someone had this kind of problem?
    Any hint will be welcome!
    P.S: The Oracle Portal, the Application Server, and the Reports Server are in a SUN Machine.
    The Portal version is 2 (release 2).
    Thanks in advance

    hi adriano,
    here is what you have to do:
    1. navigate to the db provider which holds the reports. click
    on grant access: check the expose as provider
    2. builder - administer - oracle reports security -
    edit the reports definition file access you created for
    your report.
    click on the access tab - check publish to portal.
    now you can see your report portlets for selection
    in portal.
    regards,
    christian hi,
    I can run the report as portlet but I can't see the "Access" tab under Customize. I know the option "Publish to Portal" is available in other object, but the "Access" tab does not appear in any of the Report Defitinion file acess page. Only "Develop" and "Manager" is available. I'm running on 9iAS R1.02.2.2a.
    Thanks

  • ORACLE reports Build 10g - Data Model - query - If statement in Alias ?

    I have the following select statement. It has the alias Survivors, Deaths and "All
    With the ORACLE reports Build 10g - Data Model - I have the following query statement. I require the alias to change. Can the following be done.
    Cases". Is it posible to use :P_LANGUAGE variable to say that -- IF :P_LANGUAGE = FRENCH THEN alias are Survivants for survivors, Décès for Deaths, Tous_les_cas for All Cases. Please advise
    SELECT ALL T_NTR_MULTIBAR.CAT, T_NTR_MULTIBAR.NUM_CASES_LEFTBAR AS Survivors,
    T_NTR_MULTIBAR.NUM_CASES_MIDDLEBAR AS Deaths, T_NTR_MULTIBAR.NUM_CASES_RIGHTBAR AS "All Cases"
    FROM T_NTR_MULTIBAR
    WHERE INSTANCE_NUM = :P_INSTANCENUM
    order by ORDERS

    It is no problem, you can automatically change the complete query before the report is running, which delivers you different kind of values. But the alias names does not change in the group of the data-model, although two query are running with different alias names at different times. In the data model you see the alias names of the first implemented select statement, which are the column fields in the layout.

    create or replace package test1 is
    type r_cursor is ref cursor;
    function report(company_name in varchar2) return r_cursor;
    end test1;
    create or replace package body test1 is
    function report(company_name in varchar2) return r_cursor as

    select t.t_id, t.t_description from t1 t;
    return my_r_cursor;
    elsif(company_name != 'ALL COMPANIES') THEN
    open my_r_cursor for
    select t.t_id, t.t_description from t1 t
    where t.t_id = company_name;
    return my_r_cursor;
    end if;
    end;

    create table t1
    t_id varchar2(200) not null,
    t_description varchar2(250),
    primary key(t_id)
    insert into t1
      (t_id, t_description)
    values
      ('CITI', 'PROFIT: 2.2Billion');
    insert into t1
      (t_id, t_description)
    values
      ('GE', 'PROFIT: 1Billion');
    insert into t1
      (t_id, t_description)
    values
      ('JPMORGAN','PROFIT: 0');Now, I am trying to create a simple report in oracle report builder. The interface for generating for this report is basically, there is a dropdownlist where by the user picks a company name from the dropdownlist and clicks on the go button, this should then generate a report with the above query shown in the package. How can this be achieved? All help will greatly be appreciated.

    Hi,
    first of all you need strong typed ref cursor, oracle reports need to detect witch are the columns returned by your cursor.
    so first you create your package
    create or replace package test1
    as
    TYPE t_record IS RECORD ( company_number PLS_INTEGER--TABLE_NAME.COLUMN_NAME%TYPE
    , company_desc VARCHAR2(150)--TABLE_NAME.COLUMN_NAME%TYPE
    TYPE T_REF_CURSOR IS REF CURSOR RETURN t_record;
    procedure report(company_name in varchar2 ,cur_out OUT t_ref_cursor) ;
    end test1;
    show errors
    create or replace package body test1
    is
    procedure report(company_name in varchar2 ,cur_out OUT t_ref_cursor)
    is
    my_r_cursor T_REF_CURSOR;
    begin
    if(company_name = '1')
    THEN
    open my_r_cursor for
    select 1 as t_id, 'description' ast_description from dual
    else
    open my_r_cursor for
    select 2 as t_id, 'description2' as t_description from dual
    end if;
    end;
    end test1;
    show errors
    then, in your report you create a ref cursor query :
    function QR_1RefCurDS
    return test1.t_ref_cursor
    is
    C_return test1.t_ref_cursor;
    begin
         test1.report(1,C_return);
    RETURN(C_return) ;
    end;
    hope this helps you !

  • Getting a report in excel format from oracle report builder 10gDS release2

    I want to get a report in excel format from oracle report builder 10gDS release2.
    Is there ne method by which minimum effort is required for changing already made reports .
    I have searched for it on internet :-
    http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/reports/10.1.2/state/content/navId.3/navSetId._/vtTopicFile.htmlhelp_rwbuild_hs%7Crwwhthow%7Cwhatare%7Coutput%7Coutput_a_simpleexcel~htm/
    Example, given in the last of the page opened from the above url, is not working.
    Can neone plz explain the example and how to use it
    Thanks & Regards
    JD

    Ok, for the release 2 its quite straightfoward, in your calling form you would have something like this code:
    declare
         pl_id ParamList;
    repid REPORT_OBJECT;
    v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
    v_rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
    v_repsrv     VARCHAR2(100):= 'yourreportserver';
    v_serv varchar2(50) := 'yourservername' ;
    begin
    pl_id := Get_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
    if not id_null(pl_id) then
    Destroy_Parameter_List( pl_id );
    end if;
    pl_id := Create_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
    Add_Parameter(pl_id,'DESTYPE' ,TEXT_PARAMETER,'Screen' );
    Add_Parameter(pl_id,'PARAMFORM' ,TEXT_PARAMETER,'NO' );
    repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('yourreport');     SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,RUNTIME);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER, v_repsrv);
    set_report_object_property(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE );
    set_report_object_property(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'SPREADSHEET' );
    v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid,pl_id);
    v_rep := substr(v_rep,length(v_repsrv)+2,10 ) ;
    end;
    I have plenty of reports being formated to excel with this same method so it should work for you, the only diference with my previous code is this line.
    set_report_object_property(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'SPREADSHEET' );
    The rest remains untouched.
    Hope it helps.

    I'm not sure what version of the product you're using, but since you're just installing it may well be the base version (6.0.8.8.3).
    Similar issues were addressed in a patch release (6.0.8.12), which was related to issues with some types of keyboard. You may want to upgrade to the latest patch release and retry.

  • How to Publish a report created by Oracle report builder

    Hi Everyone
    My colleague and I were trying to use the Oracle Reports Builder to replace our existing reports generator from our ERP system. We have already created the report in the Reports Builder from the development suite.
    What we are looking for is a similar solution as the Microsoft reporting service;
    1) create the company report templates
    2) and then upload the template files to a location (e.g. folder on the server)
    3) then all user in the company can access it by a web browser with some fields which they can enter some critiria (e.g. purchase order number).
    4) then send to printer and the print out should look exactly like the template.
    Unfortunately, we had very bad time on try to find out what we need and how to publish that Oracle report we created. We spent 15 hours on that but no result.
    In that 15 hours we tried to setup the "Oracle report service", but at last my colleague said that wasnt what we looking for, the "Oracle report service" is for reporting the error from the application hosted on the server, not for publish the company report created by the "Oracle report bulider" .
    We use Oracle Database 10g for the ERP quite a long time already. We had the Oracle Developer Setup, and the Application Server Installed.
    Could someone please tell us what kind of Oracle service we are actually looking for. Any other suggestion and setup guides are also the most welcoming.
    Best Regards

  • How to use LIKE function with a parameter in Oracle REPORT builder??

    how could i use parameter inside a LIKE function in Oracle reports builder?
    it works in SQL plus, but not in report builder!!
    Example:

    like '%&give_desc%'; ---works in SQL
    like '%:give_desc%' ---doesn't work in report builder!!

    Hi Renil,
    You will need to use the wildcard character (%) and the concatenation character (||) to join to your user parameter.
    i.e. like '%'||:give_desc||'%'
