Display the description of a parameter in the report

Hi Guru:
I have a parameter, for each value to be selected, there is a description.
Now my question is, how to display the description of the value in the report?
I tried to put the parameter into the report, but it display the value, not the description.
For example, I have a parameter, for company code, each company code will have a description in the value list of the parameter, after the user pick 1000, I want to put the name of company code 1000 into the report.
Thanks.
Eric

The only way I have found to do this without hard-coding a translation table is to return the value in your dataset. In your case, cross join your results to
select company_name from company where company_code = {?comp parm}
(or something similar...)

Report 6i/Webdb -Not able to display the report in the browser - rep- 3002 error.

Would someone tell what I missed, I have set up the following:
1) a report using report builder on NT
2) my database is in Unix
3) my report server is started in NT
4) I run webdb listener for the following code: http://myweb.com/cgi/rwcgi60.exe?server=repserver+report=myreport+userid=usid/pw/connect_string+destype=cache+desformat=html. Then, I receive this message:
Error: The requested URL was not found, or cannot be served at this time.
Oracle Reports Server CGI - Report Job has terminated with error.
Reports Server Replies:
REP-3002: Error initializing printer. Please make sure a printer is installed.
Why is it thinking I want to use the printer whereas I want to display the report in the browser?. Any help would be appreciated.

It sounds like that your Web CGI did not configure right. To test if your CGI configuration is correct, type:
http://hostname:port/cgi-bin/rwcgi60exe?
If you get a help screen, then you should be able to bring up your report.

Display the reports under all subfolders at a time in the content area?

Hi All,
In SAP EP portal,We have a requirement to display few reports wherein we have 7 roles with the same names but different ID's and they are merged together so that even if the users have 7 roles assigned he will see only 1 tab in the first level navigation and uder that there will be one folder at the second level.Now the requirement is like this
1st level navigation : Role Name
2nd level navigation :Folder Name
Detailed Navigation : Folder Name
                                 Sub Folder Name
                                 Sub -sub folder1 Name
                                 Reports   --(one or many)
                                 Sub -sub folder2 Name
                                 Reports   --(one or many)
                                 Sub -sub folder3 Name
                                 Reports   --(one or many)
Under al the sub-sub folders a workset map iview is added to display the reports with a pictogram in the content area.In the detailed navigation, as soon as the user clicks on the Sub folder the user should be able to see the reports under all the Sub-sub folders( Sub-sub folder1,Sub-sub folder2,Sub-sub folder3) .But currently the user has to explicitly click on each of the Sub-sub folders to view the reports(thrice in this case).Plz give a solution in which all the reports under the 3 Sub-sub folders should appear simultaneouly in the content area at a single click on Sub Folder
Thanks & Regards,

Display the reports in web browser?

I need advise.. Here is my requirements.
we are using Oracle9i database. We have data warehouse Schema. We wanted to display some of the reports in the browser. What are the possible solutions to display the reports in web browser with out using any reporting tools(cognos, business objects etc).
Thanks

Well your requirement is a little bit odd, displaying data in database without using tools or application. What's form of these reports you are talking about? Are they just bunch of queries?
If you don't want to use heavy duty software like cognos or business objects, then consider use Oracle Application Express APEX
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/index.html
by the way cognos and business objects are OLAP tools, does that mean your reports are OLAP report?

Regarding displaying the report information in Geographical map

Hi All,.
I have a specific requirement where I have to display the number of Telephone connections activated in a geographical area (GEO map) . How to do it.
Can any body provide the step by step process to display the reporting information in maps.

Hi,
To do this you have to have the settings done in Info object maintenance where in the Map should have been integrated already.
Once that is done, in BEx designer you can have the setting by cloicking the icon.
Hope this helps to start with.
Assign points if useful.

How to call a report thru an RFC w/o displaying the Report UI

Hi ,
I have to pass the parameter to a report thru an RFC.
I am using submit command , but I do not want SAP gui to appear..
This is the report UI code .
PARAMETERS : werks LIKE mseg-werks OBLIGATORY.
SELECT-OPTIONS : budat FOR mkpf-budat OBLIGATORY,
 material FOR mseg-matnr.
I have to pass the value to the report from my RFC by assiging values to these control in my RFC . and also I do not want display the SAP GUI for the Screen.
I have used this code to achive this.
SUBMIT ZRPT_MM_045 EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY AND RETURN
 USING SELECTION-SET 'ZZZ'.
where 'ZZZ' is my variant .
the problem here is I can not change the values dynamically in my RFC. All the values in 'zzz' variant are predefined.
HOw to achive this ...
A sample piece of code greatly appreciated
thanks
pkiran

If you want to pass parameters dynamically without using a static variant, you can do the following.
In this example, P_1, P_2, P_3, S_1, S_2, S_3 are the names of the parameters/select-options in the submitted program. PA_1, PA_2, PA_3, SO_1, SO_2, SO_3 are fields in your RFC that can be built dynamically.
* Lets say that S_1 in the submitted program is a date
* range. We want to pass a seven day range starting
* today.
ranges: SO_1 for sy-datum.
SO_1-sign = 'I'.
sO_1-option = 'BT'.
SO_1-low = sy-datum.
SO_1-high = sy-datum + 7.
append SO_1.
SUBMIT ZRPT_MM_045 EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY
 WITH P_1 = PA_1
 with p_2 = PA_2
 with p_3 = pa_3
 with s_1 in so_1
 with s_2 in so_2
 with s_3 in so_3
 AND RETURN.

How to display the report output from a standard Oracle Form

Dear Members,
I am calling a concurrent program (XML Report) from a standard form using form's personalization (special menu entry).
I am able to successfully submit the concurrent program. Once it is submitted successfully user need to navigate to the Requests window to see the output.
Instead of user navigating to the requests window to see the output, can we display it directly on the standard form itself after the completion of the report?
Many thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Arun Reddy.

R4S,
You might be able to Zoom to the view requests form to save your users a step.

It's called an "ad" with a single d. That should help your google queries.
Nobody here will be able to help you as it's impossible for us to guess what you are struggling with specifically. Logic dictates that when you want to develop a site you at least know the tools (java/jsp/html/javascript) to actually be able to do this.

How to Display the Report Based on The Page Number

Hi All,
I just have a requirement like this
The User wants to see only the odd numbers of Report pages in the Total Report
For Ex. If the Report consist of 10 Pages the user wanna see Pages 1,3,5,7,9...........
is it attainable in WebI..............
Please help on this
Thanks in advance.............

I wonder...how do you think user should navigate through document.... ? If I want to see only odd pages - I will either create separate report or I am ok with setting the correct number to actual displayed page.You may also consider using links - it depends how is report structure created...

Displaying the report output in excel format

Please help me in getting the report output in excel format.
thnks

I ran into a BIG problem after passing from 6i rep server to 9i rep server.
On 6i rep server I used to set DESFORMAT='DELIMITED', and that produced reasonable tab-delimited output for reports that did not have group above (all the query groups were from left to right, not a single group having fields displayed above some other group). When deployed on rep server 9i, the same reports produced some unexplainable output: some of the rows were duplicated, but I couldn't figure out any rule.
So, the best thing to get the reports into something that fits in .xls would be to have the output in .xml, that may be imported in Excel.

From the Web application does not display the report...

Hello,
I have a Web application in VS 2010 (NET 4.0) running reports in VS 2003 (NET 1.1) and CR XI. What should I consider for the reports to run well? When setting up the basics of the folder where the reports are in IIS 7.5, item I keep in the Application Pool: NET 1.1, but when in the same IIS server I click on Browse *: 80, I generated the following error: HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error
The requested page can not be accessed Because the related configuration data for the page is invalid.
I can do, thanks.

Reports are made in VS 2003 (. NET 1.1) and CR XI using a framework. This framework is placed in the web server (Windows 2008 Server R2) and called from VS 2010.
Sorry, I'm still having problem understanding this.
Only CRVS2010 will work with VS2010. The reports can be created in any version of CR you want, but to load the reports in VS2010, you need CRVS2010, create a project in VS2010, then deploy the project and the CRVS2010 runtime(?).
E.g.;
1) Create report using CR XI
2) Install CRVS2010 on a computer that has VS2010
3) Create a project using CRVS2010 in VS 2010 - can use any framework you want
4) Deploy VS2010 project
5) Install CRVS2010 runtime

LVS Viewer: Cannot display the report

Dear All,
When I query the report in LVS Viewer, I didn't see any error message. The system said loading....then no report shows.
Does it mean I am missing some software on terminal server?
I installed LVS server on our DB server. I installer LVS client and viewer on our terminal server.
I have Windows server 2003 on both server. I have SQL2005, SAP8.8 PL08. Please advise. Thanks.
Regards,
Yuka

Hi Maria,
Thanks for the reply.
Here are the records in LVS Table. I only copied one table here.
I installed the server and the client on the same PC. I cannot see anything from report viewer.
When I go C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP\SAP Business One LVS\Reports Output, I can see some TXT files. One file of each day. So I assume my server address is correct. I copied it from the config file of LVS. Then another assumption will be, the viewer of the report is incorrect. But I didn't see any error message to let me know what's wrong with it.
Thanks.
Regards,
Yuka

Hi Ashok,
You can change the page size and orientation in the web.xml in the following folder.
Web Intelligence default Page size Modification u2013 Follow these steps:
1. Open the defaultconfig.xml file found in the following directory:
servername\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat\webapps\businessobjects\enterprise115\desktoplaunch\webiApplet\AppletConfig
2. Look for the following code near the top of the page:
<KEY VALUE="page*default">
<FORMAT NAME="A4" ORIENTATION="portrait" />
</KEY>
3. Change this to:
<KEY VALUE="page*default">
<FORMAT NAME="LETTER" ORIENTATION="portrait" />
