Display interactive report rows based on user role.

Hello,
Can anyone please help me out with this issue. i have an interactive report and now i want to make this report as conditional based on user role. Like i want to dispaly all the report rows for an Admin user role and for a developer I want the report to display only his/her rows. Can anyone please help me how can I resolve this issue.
Do I need to have two separate reports for each role or can we make achieve this with only one report.
thanks,
Orton

Here is a possible answer.. Build your Interactive report off of a collection. And when you build the collection you can build an if statement to either build your select with or without the filtering of user_id..
See this blog entry for how to build a interactive report from a collection: http://www.oracleapplicationexpress.com/tutorials/71-oracle-apex-interactive-report-based-on-plsql-function

Internal error when try to display Interactive Report

Hello Gurus
I'm facing problem with displaying Interactive Reports in Web GUI (CRM 2007). When I try to open existing report or new created one, I see on the display area error "Load failed, Internal error" (no other system errors)
I think all configuration is done well, I have checked it by reports: Z_OLTP_CONFIG_CHECK and Z_OLTP_CONFIG_CHECK_BI, and except error DataSource /CRMBW/BOOL_TEXT is not active, everything is ok.
By the way - how can active this data source, while I can't find it anywhere, even in repository (RSA5)?
I thought maybe problem is with my browser or Flash player, but other functionalities uses flash work good (ie. key figures).
Any hints?
Best regards
Lukasz

Color report rows based on a value in that row

I would like to Color report rows based on a value in that row.
For examplle with the "EMP" table:
I would like job=MANAGER to be red and job=CLERK to be green etc etc
The other example I found only had the option of one color either the highlight or the default color.
I am looking for a way to do multiple colors.

Hi,
In the row template, you can use #1#, #2#, etc to indicate where a field in the report needs to be output. This does not have to be plain text - ie, you can use it within style tags if you like.
So, take a query like:
SELECT EMPNO,
ENAME,
DEPTNO,
DECODE(DEPTNO, 10, 'green', 20, 'red', 30, 'cyan', 'white') BG_COLOUR
FROM EMPYou get columns 1=empno, 2=ename, 3=deptno and 4=bg_colour. In the row template, you can then do:
Before Rows setting (sets up the table):
<table>
<tr><td>ID</td><td>Name</td><td>Dept</td></tr>After Rows setting (closes the table):
</table>Row Template 1 (used for ALL rows):
<tr style="background-color:#4#;"><td>#1#</td><td>#2#</td><td>#3#</td></tr>Then, for every row, the colour that has been calculated using the DECODE function will be used in the style tag to colour the background for the entire row.
How you determine the colours is up to you. I've used DECODE here, but you could use a field on the DEPT table to hold this and use this in your SQL statement.

Customize portal "Help" link based on user roles

Is there a chance to customize the Help link URL in Masthead iView based on user roles? The use case we have is that the "Help" should be different for users of the purchasing company from those of the supplying company.
Thanks.

Hello Jay.
This is a multi step process.
Step 1 : Create 2 desktops with everything as same but different mastheads.
- Copy your existing desktop and paste it in your working folder in PCD (Not select Delta link)
- Now download masthead par file.
- Modify your masthead par file where you will disable help link. Rename you masthead file (newMasthead.par) and export it from NWDS. Now import it in portal.
- open your framework page in desktop2. Just add your new masthead in it. Enable the new one and disable the existing one.
Step 2 : Create 2 groups of users. (First one belong to users who wish to see help link . i.e existing desktop) (Second of thoese users who do not have to see help link i.e. newDesktop)
- Assign users to appropriate groups.
- Assign same roles to both groups.
Step 3 : Modify main rule section in PCD.
- If group = HelpLinkUsers Then Desktop1
If group = NoHelpLinkUsers Then Desktop2.
You may find above process bit tedious and lengthy.
But if you wish to further customize your portal then this will be needed one day.
If you find problems in implementing any step then please search in google or SDN.
Please revert back on any specific question on above approach you may face while implementing.
Thanks

Content delivery in portal based on user roles ?

Portal Server new bee...
Please can anyone point me to guides/url where i can look to enable content delivery in a portal based on user roles and how to establish SSO.
I have installed Portal Server6.0 and iplanet Directory Server Management Edition installed.
I did go through PS Development guide and got some sample containers up and running in the portal.
Thanks.

For the role-based delivery, Comment 1 sends you in the right direction. Here are a couple things to keep in mind as you read through the customization guide.
The basic gist of what you need is to define your organization profiles with all the services defined at the org level. Then you can define simple profiles at the role level. These will probably focus around the selected and available attributes on the table containers.
Then you might want to pay particular attention to the merge, lock, and propogate attributes. These will allow you to define how the role affects the availability of channels (does the role add, remove, or force the channel?). The easiest thing to do is probably to start with a core group of channels, and then have each role define additional channels that are of interest and should be added to the selected/available lists.
Having roles remove channels will make matters a little more confusing and harder to maintain.

Displaying an interactive report row using two lines

Is there a way to take a report row from an interactive report that has too many columns for one display row and display using 2 rows? This would minimize the amount of scrolling the user would then need to do.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I dont think we can show a single row as two lines in an interactive report but if you use a classic report instead of interactive then you can do that by creating your own custom report template from scratch and selecting templete type as Named Column (row template) and show the row in what ever way you need...any way if you find any solution for interactive report just post your solution here which will help me too
Thanks,

Displaying an interactive report differently depending on user connected

Hi,
I have an interactive report on a table which holds server information. This table has a column which is called "Restricted". It has only two possible values (Y or N). It determines whether or not a user has the privileges to view the server password of that server.
We are using database authentication for our APEX 3.2.1 application. We have 2 predefined roles, one with full privileges (Select, Update, Insert, Delete), and one with only Select privileges. When creating a database user account to access our APEX application, one of these 2 predefined roles is assigned to the user.
What i want to accomplish is to display the Server Interactive Report as follows:
If the user has full privileges, then they see the contents of the Password field regardless of the contents of the "Restricted" column (Y or N).
However, if the user only has select privileges, they will not see anything in the Password field if the "Restricted" column is set to Y. Either i will display a Null or a bunch of stars (****). Note: I cannot hide the Password column because i still want to display the password column for those records that have a 'N' in the restricted column.
I know how to create a condition which determines which level of privileges the user has and make the report display stars in the password field (I used a decode statement in the SQL statement generating the report which sets the Password field to **** if Restricted is set to Y). This only takes into account the role assigned to the user. The complicated part is factoring in the condition of wether or not the Restricted column is Y or N so that users with the right privileges will see everything whereas users without the privileges will see null or stars.
This is a major issue we are facing right now.
Thanks for any suggestions, advice.
Tim

Hi Scott,
Thank you very much, I just had not structured my case statement correctly and ommitted that second condition about the user.
I did this: CASE WHEN "RESTRICTED" = 'Y' and :APP_USER = 'NO_PRIV' THEN '****'
ELSE ORA_PWD END ORA_PWD, "RESTRICTED"
The report works fine now! :-)

Insert new rows based on user selection on a table display on the screen

Hi..
In my requirement i need to display the line items of a PO# to the user on the screen for specific fields. Each row should also include an additonal checkbox when displayed for the user. When the user checks this check box or clicks on it a new row should be inserted below to that row with the existing data of that row being copied to newly inserted row and allowing the user to make any changes.
The newly inserted row should also include a check box , so that when the user checks it again a new row should get inserted. Finally what ever data user enters on the screen, i should be able to update my internal table with those new values and records.
Appreciate if anyone can guide me on how to proceed on this or any alternative approaches.
Will reward helpful answers.
Thanks.

Hi ..
Can you please be more detailed. First I need to know how to create the initial table display for the existing line items and then the techniques for inserting the new rows based on the check marks and finally add those news rows to my existing internal table..
Appreciate ur help.
Thanks.

Usage of Different Prompt based on Users Role in OBIEE

Hi
I have a requirement(OBIEE Reports) as below.
The Dashboard page will have a Prompt(Drop Down) Say for Geography where it will list all the countries available.When a global user(Role) logs in to the application he should see all the list of available countries along with "All Choice" option in the prompt.But when a Country user(Role) logs in he should see only the country available for him in the prompt without "All Choice" Option.Also if the Country user(Role) belongs to more then one country he should see all countries he belongs to along with the "All Choice" option in the prompt.
Any help on this is Appreciated.

Hi
Like David points, you may use Security Groups to display 1 or more Countries to the User depending upon 'Global' or 'Country'. You will have to use content filters to reflect the scope of the user in session.
Then 'All Choices' is a prompt front-end feature. You cannot restrict to 'Country' but 'Country' anyway cant see more rows that he is eligible. So, you may consider 'All Choices' for all users.

Set Form Values From Interactive Report Row

Using Apex 4.2.
I have two tables: T1 and T2
Table T1 contains five columns: CT11, CT12, CT13, CT14, CT15
Table T2 contains 4 columns: CT21, CT22, CT23, CT24
I have a page with two regions. Region 1 is a Form on a Table using table T1. Region 2 is an Interactive Report ( IR ) on table T2.
The SQL for region 2 is: select apex_item.RADIOGROUP(p_idx => 1, p_value => CT21) "Choose", CT22, CT23, CT24 from T2;
When the user clicks a radio button for a row in the Interactive Report, I would like the values in the IR cells CT22, CT23, CT24 to populate the CT13, CT14, CT15 fields in the table form in region 1. If a user clicks another row radio button, the values should update.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,
As per my understanding ur requirement is as below.
When the user clicks the 'Link Column' it should redirect to another page with the value of id, Day, Start Time, and End Time.
Hope all the cloumns are from the same table.
As Denes said, it is enought to pass the ID value to the link column as of below.
ie., u can modify ur query as of below.
SELECT Last Name,First Name,Day,Start Time,End Time, ID as "Link Column"
FROM t.
Now u can pass the value as #Link Column# which will pass the ID value to the next page.
Hope my understanding is correct.

Display @ interactive Report

Hello All,
In my interactive Report, there is couple column in the “Do Not Display Column”.
I would like to display them as other default column.
Anyone can lead me about this issue ?
EB NY

Hi,
Login to the application, and run the report as developer account. After running the page, click on interactive report Action menu --> select columns. Select the columns which you want to display in report and move them to Display in Report list box, arrange the order of the columns as per your requirement. Now Click on Apply. Now you should be able to see the new columns on the report page.
To make this report setting available for all the users, you have to save this layout as default report setting. To do that, click on Action menu -> Save report . Select default report setting and then click on apply. This will save the current report as default report for all the users and they can see the newly added columns.
Hope this helps.

Manish

Restricting values of a dropdown based on user roles

Hi,
Is it possible to restrict the values of a custom metadata dropdown based on the user roles (assuming only 1 role is assigned to each user)? Say, based on the role assigned to a user, he/she should see only 3-4 values out of 10 values in a dropdown on the checkin page. Please suggest.
Thanks.

You can get pretty close out of the box using some configuration manager applet voodoo
1)First off create a Table that will contain the options for your list. Create the columns e.g. label and id and then also create a column called dSecurityGroup
2)Add a view based on the table you just created, choose the Security tab and select "Use standard document security"
3)Add some values to your view - make sure that you populate the dSecurityGroup column with real values of security groups
4)Once it is all published, have a look at the checkin and search screens. You should find that UCM will evaluate the options in the same way it would documents - based on the dSecurityGroup value you applied to the row - e.g. you will see an option on the search screen if you have at least R permissions, you will see an option on a checkin screen if you have at least RW permission

How to HIde rows based on User Selection

I have a requirement where in I have to hide some rows based on Plant Name selected by USer at the time of opening the report.
Here is the screen shot:-
Here I am seeing two Tag Types MACT and Average when User selects Luling Plant. But When User selects some other Plant I don't want to see Tag Type 'MACT' in this table.
We have a predefine filter for Plant.
How can I achieve that. The data in White Rows is Average values.
Please help.
Regards

Hi Shalini,
Is user selecting Plant Name from the report prompt. If Yes, then try below-
Create a variable-
FilterSelect= If UserResponce("WritePromptTextHere") =" Luling Plant" and TagType inList ("MACT";"Average") Then 1 ElseIf UserResponce("WritePromptTextHere") <>" Luling Plant" and TagType inList ("MACT";"Average") Then 3 Else 2
Apply Filter on "FilterSelect" variable-
FilterSelect=1 and 2

Excel Macro to Delete rows based on user input

I need help creating a macro that will delete rows in a spreadsheet based on user input. Have little to no experience writing macros.
Rows are distinguished based on codes in column B, so if the user types "6657", the row with code 6657 should be deleted. Any help would be much appreciated

Hi,
Please try the macro:
Sub Sample()
Dim Ret As Long
Ret = Application.InputBox(Prompt:="Please enter a row number", Type:=1)
If Ret = False Then Exit Sub
With ActiveSheet
.Rows(Ret).Delete Shift:=xlUp
End With
End Sub

ORG: is the Names of the SHIP FROM ORG
ORG COUNTRY: is a Dependent Parameter based on the ORG (i.e When a SHIP FROM ORG is Selected the ORG CHOICE Should have the CHoices for the selected ORG and when Nothing Selected from that ORG it should run for every ORG COUNTRY in that SHIP FROM ORG Currently we have two ORG COUNTRY PER SHIP FROM ORG say(USA, CANADA)
ITEM SELECTION: We need to Run this Report based on Item Selection ( The Logic should handle a total item selection whihc are comma seperated for upto 29
items)
ORDER TYPE : Types of Order Again this can be a List of Comma Seperated Values for order Types

Now My Problem is How Do i Get a Logic to Let the Report Name Selection To be REferenced in the Data Definition file..
I would like to request you to Please help me out in arriving at a Solution for Implementing the Logic
When the USer selects ITEM COUNT SUMMARY BY ORDER TYPE I want "BY_ORDERTYPE" to be Executed and so on..
Is there a Way That I can Write in my Data definition file as
DECODE(:REPORT_NAME ,'ITEM COUNT SUMMARY BY ORDERTYPE', Run query for BY_ORDERTYPE,
,'ITEM COUNT SUMMARY BY STATUS', Run query for BY_STATUS,
,'ITEM COUNT SUMMARY BY TRANSIT DAYS', Run query for BY_TRANSITDAYS,run query for DETAIL REPORT);
Also My Item Description Contains Special Characters like Registered Symbol, Copyright Symbol How would I force my XML Parser to Still consider them as TEXT's
May I Directly Specify <?xdofx:DECODE :REPORT_NAME = 'ITEM COUNT SUMMARY BY ORDERTYPE' THEN BY_ORDERTYPE ?> in the DATA DEFINITION file , I think this is only allowed in RTF please Help,
Thanks

Thanks for the Reply sir,
When you say Write the Code, you are referring to the Package is that correct,unfortunately I am not implementing this via PL/SQL Package.
you mentioned that I can Implement the Logic in the Data definition file( which is a XML file), how and Where I have print use that IF construct (or) Can you Please Print the Code snippet in the Model XML template that i have pasted in my Post.
May i know what is this
