Different filters in one report

Is there a way to use different filters in one Answers query?
For example, I want to place two tables onto Compound layout view. The first table is prepared using one filter, and the second - using another filter.
PS. I know that I can use two different queries with different filters and then put them to a dashboard. But it's not what I want - I want to put two different tables onto the Compound Layout view.

The answer your question correctly: no, you can not have multiple filters in one answer request. You can only have one table view in an Answers request. The table view represents the logical SQL of the request, which can only have one filter.
But there are some workarounds:
1) you can use the FILTER function to create a column filter.
2) you can have multiple pivot table views in one Answers request, to get different tables
Based on 1 single table view, you can have multiple pivot tables which contain different column filtered columns.
This means that you can have multiple (pivot) tables in one request which hold different data.

Having 2 different documents in one report, different pages per document

Hi,
I'm doing an invoice report that has 2 sections head and detail.
Both header and detail may have more than one page, but between both sections page counts must be restarted.
I'm using Oracle Reports 6i (no sections available)
Basically, the objective is to have 2 independent documents in one report.
I’m using 2 repeating frames one for the Header and one for the Detail, having a page break between both frames.
So my goal is to reset page number counter at each page break.
Something like this:
Header pag. 1 of 2
Header pag. 2 of 2
-------- pag. Break --------
Detail pag. 1 of 3
Detail pag. 2 of 3
Detail pag. 3 of 3
-------- pag. Break --------
Header pag. 1 of 1
-------- pag. Break --------
Detail pag. 1 of 2
Detail pag. 2 of 2
Thank’s for the help,
Anselmo Rodrigues

I'm sorry but i don't have any reports at hand, so i'm guessing "from the blind":
If you cannot use a plcaholder-column in the between-pages-trigger, you could try the following:
Create a Package-Sepc in the program-units-section.
Create a variable in there with datatype-number and initil value 0
Try to increase this variable in the between-pages-report.
As i said, i'm not able to test it at the moment, but give it a try.

BLOBs from different tables on one report

Hi,
I think the declarative BLOB support enhancement in 3.1 is really great. I am running into a problem with a report that joins two tables that both have BLOB columns. I have a Letters table and a Response table. The Response table has a FK linkage to the Letters table with the Letters table being the referenced table. I have a report that joins the Letters & Response tables and provides download links for the BLOBs in both tables. However on the report, only one of the link works at a given point in time. Both the links work fine in isolation (if the other link is commented out in the query).
I am using the APEX_UTIL.GET_BLOB_FILE_SRC function to download the files. Has anyone tried using this function to download files from two different tables in a single report?
TIA,
Ramesh

Ramesh,
Is this application on apex.oracle.com by any chance? I just went to test there and am having all sorts of trouble with declarative display of BLOBs in a report but on our dev box, two works fine (except that the link for both is the default rather than what I selected).

I want to create a dashboard report in visual composer where in I have a set of 10 tables data to be displayed in one page out of 10 queries I am getting the data for 5 of the reports from Bi system and for other reports we get it from CRM system .Can I place data coming from 2 different reports in one view.If so how is that possible.
What are the advantages we have in Visual composer apart from WAD .

Hi,
Two different reports can be placed in one iview, but as far as i know it is not possible to combine two reports data into single table.

How to report on 2 different dates in one report?

Hello,
I need to have Date in a sales report represent both Actual Goods Issue Date and Planned Goods Issue Date depending on the sales order status (i.e. shipped or still in process).
The report format is like:
Date--Sales--
Orders
Jan 1                                    $0                         $100
Jan 2                                    $50                       $150
Jan 3                                    $100                     $300
Sales is defined as shipped items. Orders are just all incoming sales orders.
I need Date for Sales to be Actual GI date, and for Orders to be Planned GI date.
In a customized DSO we have both these dates available, and currently, Calendar Day, Calendar Week are pointing to Planned GI date.
Thanks.

For those who might come across this note, the design issue was solved by incorporating Rule Groups.
Problem:
Need to have 2 different Date references for 0calday, based on the key figures. For example for Sales key figure date it would reference to Actual GI Date. But, for Intake key figure I needed the date reference to be Planned GI date.
Solution-- applied to the transfer rules of the desired cube:
1. In the starndard rule group delete the transfer rule for the appropriate key figures. in this case (sales key figure)
2. In the same rule group map all time characteristics from the cube to Planned GI date from DSO
3. Create a new rule group in the transfer rule between the DSO and the Info Cube
4. In the new rule group, create a new rule for the appropriate key figure i.e. sales
5. In the new rule group, Map the date/week/month/fiscal period to Actual GI date
6. save/activate
This solution eliminates the need for changing the data model, which makes everything almost transparent to the report users.
Hope this helps someone.

Division calculation using different filters in OBIEE 11g

Hello,
I have a requirement where I want to calculate division of same column using different filters in one report.
e.g. No. of Units (Where Active flag='A')/No. of units (Where Active flag='I').
I am using OBIEE 11g.
Thanks.

Try this:
((case when Active flag='A' then No. of Units end)*1.0)/
(case when Active flag='I' then No. of Units end)
It would nice if you create a new metric based on physical expression using rpd. If possible try to create it so that you can have aggregation after the calculation.
If helps pls mak as correct/helpful

Simultaneous Access to one report

Hello Everybody,
How many simultaneous access of different DB can one report have?
For example,how many users can access the same report at the same time?
the edition of CR is 2008.

Not much info to go on so I am assuming you Everyone has a local copy of Crystal Reports Designer installed and the reports are all stored on a local Server.
There should not be a lock on the report, Each designer should open the report as a Temp copy, but they won't be able to save the report back to the shared folder.
As for DB connections, each user has his own connection to the server. DB Client and DSN or how ever you are connecting must be installed on each users PC. If you are using more than one Data Source then use a subreport for each database server.
Thank you
Don

One report contain two orientation sections

Hi all,
Is it possible to have different orientations on one report? My client hopes a letter would be printed at the beginning which is followied by data output in landscape orientation.
Thank you very much,
Clara

Hi Clara,
We cant do anything for this from Report Designer, it it is not CR 2008 version.
So better you can go with .net Coding. I am sure it can possible trough code.
Ttry to take out the page number, based on that Condition set orientation like this,(in C#.net)
RptDocument.PrintOptions.PaperOrientation = CrystalDecisions.Shared.PaperOrientation.Landscape //RptDocument is report object
See this link, this something related to your issue.
Re: How to set the page size and the margins programatically
From that link You will get a Doument file attacked by Ludek.
And i beleive You will get better responds ,once you post this thread in '.NET Development-Crystal Reports' forum
(2008 is 12th version.)

Creating 2 different WEBI report in One report

Hi,
Can we create 2 different report in one report and some how direct the queries associated with these report individually so that i get value specific to that report only.
Edited by: ashok119 on Sep 29, 2010 11:36 AM

Version of BO, not matters.
Per my understanding, You have:
1 Universe and 10 Queries. Based these you have 2 Reports.
Report1: Data is populating from 5 Queries.
Report2: Data is populationg from another 5 queries.
-->> Do you have any Filters at query for Report2 queries??
--->> Check @ report, do you have Report level filters, you can se them by clicking on Report Filter icon (Left-most icon in formula toolbar) and see there anty filtering is there??
Still if you are getting any data, check the same at backend level(Datasource level - RDBMS/SAP). If you can see data at backend, try to create new Report(Report2) based on the req. Here you should get data.
What is the Datasource??
Thank You!!

Need help on filtering out one record from a report and open in new page

Hi I am new and embarrassed to write in the forum asking silly questions. Thing is I am learning all from scratch without help from anyone. I have created a database (have previous knowledge only from Access) and have managed to create a beautiful report from a search filter. This report lines up several records matching what I needed. Now, I want to make the whole report with hyperlinks to a detailed page on each of the records in the report. I have tried using the feature where one can make one column hyperlinked and redirect to a new page, where I am getting all the records again - instead of only getting the record I am clicking on. I have looked and looked in the forums without finding solution and I have tested and tried various methods without luck. I am suspecting that I need some sort of knowledge on how to write a select query with where conditions that can apply to filtering out a record from one report to get another detailed on only one object (i.e. record). :/ Stupid or what?

Hrefna.
What you need to look into is two things:
1) The link you defined, needs to set additional attributes for the target page. In the "Column Link" box, you have set the link to "Page in this Application" and followed by the page number (let's say, Page 10). Below that, you should set an Item to an item on you target page (let's call that P10_PRODUCT_ID). This item should be the primary key of your detail table (on the targe page). You can select this item from the popup list. The Value of the item should be picked from a popup list as well, being the value from the record you clicked on. This should then transfer your selected item to your page. The URL will then have something like P10_PRODUCT_ID:5 at the end.
2) On the target page, 10, you must change the query slightly, so that it adds a WHERE clause:
WHERE PRODUCT_ID = :P10_PRODUCT_ID
Now, you should be set.
Hope this helps.

Two different condition types in one report

Hello,
i have a problem with the conditional display of a report.
I want to use two different condition types for one report.
For example I want to show the report only when the page is not in printer friendly mode and when the value of an item is NULL.
Is that possible?
Has anyone a solution for this problem?
Thank you,
Tim

Tim,
you can use
IF V('PRINTER_FRIENDLY') = 'YES' AND :P1_ITEM IS NOT NULL THEN RETURN FALSE;
ELSE RETURN TRUE;
END IF;
in the Conditional Display picking PL/SQL Function Body returning a Boolean.

One or more hierachies in one report which differs for each user

Hi BI Gurus,
Can we have more than one hierarchy in one report which enables different hierarchy for diff user.
The requirement is like this.
We have almost 10 hierarchies..
Each user is restricted to view a particular hierarchy only.
Is this possible ....Its very urgent..
Pls help out
Thks in advance,
Mahi

If you have a variabel at the beginning letting the user choose from his/her available hierarchies this should not be a problem on the reportside. As long as they is connected to the same info-object.
How to restrict the users to different hierarchies is another question.
Hope this helps

One Report needs to connect to 20 different databases

Post Author: macgary
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
We have 20 identical databases - structurally - but differing in their regional data.
We have created some various reports that need to run against various databases in SQL Server. I would like to avoid having to create 20 variations of each report varying only in their database connections.
Does anyone have an idea of how I can pass the database name into the connection so I can make the one report work on any of my structurally similar databases?
Thanks,
Gary

Generally when creating a Word file from either a Mac or Win7 pc and opening it on two different machines (either one first) it always prompts that the file is open and will be opened as read only. However opening a CSS file does not prompt that it is alr

Generally when creating a Word file from either a Mac or Win7 pc and opening it on two different machines (either one first) it always prompts that the file is open and will be opened as read only.
However opening a CSS file does not prompt that it is already open on or from any machine which is causing code edits to be lost.
What we found from out testing:
- The file can be saved from one user to the server and WILL NOT PROMPT on other machines until the saving machine has the Dreamweaver program closed completely
- The file can be closed and Dreamweaver minimised to the launch bar but it still will not register on other machines that it has been changed.
- Also, until the Dreamweaver program is closed on the machines, it will continue to open it's saved version of the file.
Example Scenario:
- User 1 opens test.css (which is 2000 lines) and adds some code to the end of the file to bring it up to 2500 lines
- Meanwhile User 2 opens test.css as well (opens as 2000 lines as User 1’s edits have not yet been saved) and adds in code to bring it to 2300 lines
- User 1 saves his file and closes it - but Dreamweaver is still open.
- User 2 also saves his file and leaves Dreamweaver open.
- The server will report the size and last edit of the file the same as User 2 as he was the last person to save it (and if you open from the Win7 Machine it will show as User 2’s 2300 line version)
- If User 1 then open's the file again (from either the 'recent' in Dreamweaver OR clicking on the file directly in Finder...which version opens.... The version that User 1 saved! Not the true version on the server, but the version that User 1 edited and saved with 2500 lines in it.
- Same for User 2, he will open 'his' version with 2300 lines in.
Other information:
- Files are opened directly from the server
- Sometimes the users will save incrementally and re-open
- Most of the time users will save incrementally and keep the files open
- The users will never not save incrementally and just save when closing the file once finished
- The users are usually working on the files all day
- It is always the bottom lines of code that are lost. It could be a case of the two versions being mixed up and cutting off the newly added lines based on the line count (possibly).
It is as if Dreamweaver is holding a cache of the version locally and then only properly looking back to the server when it has been completely closed. It is very difficult to see how the server is causing such an impact on these files, there are very few logs which are giving any indication to the root cause of the problems.
Anyone know if this is a known issue?
Is there a way that there can be a featured implemented on the server that doesn't allow another user to open a file if it is already open on another machine?
Thanks

Your server file handling has nothing, and really nothing to do with Adobe software. If files don't get locked for (over-)writing and/or lose connection to the program opening them, then your server is misconfigured. It's as plain and simple and that. Anything from "known file types"/ file associations not being set correctly, MIME types being botched, crooked user privileges and file permissions, missing Mac server extensions, delayed file writing on the server, generic network timeout issues and what have you. Either way, you have written a longwinded post with no real value since you haven't bothered to provide any proper technical info, most notably about the alleged server. Either way, the only way you can "fix" it is by straightening out your server and network configuration, not some magic switch in Adobe's software.
