Displaying Stored Procedure (SQL) in Report (INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES.ROUTINE_DEFINITION)

We have processes that call numerous stored procedures. We are trying to create a SSRS report for our IT department to use so they can easily lookup the stored procedure definition. Some end users do not have access to SQL Server Management Studio.
The dataset query uses a System View... INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES. We are joining on the
ROUTINE_NAME. When running the SQL, it works perfect. We are able to get all the columns we need. The primary column in the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES we need is ROUTINE_DEFINITION (the sql/text of the stored procedure).
In SSRS, we copy/paste the same SQL into the DataSet query. When I test the query in the DataSet window (using red
! button), it pulls back the data just fine.
I then drop all the queried columns on the report (see query below). When I run the report all data is display except the ROUTINE_DEFINITION column. Why is this? Is it because it's SQL and SSRS won't display SQL content? How
can I get the ROUTINE_DEFINITION column data on the report?
Here is example query I'm using in the SSRS dataset:
SELECT SPECIFIC_CATALOG, SPECIFIC_SCHEMA, SPECIFIC_NAME,
ROUTINE_TYPE, CREATED, LAST_ALTERED,
ROUTINE_DEFINITION
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES
WHERE ROUTINE_NAME = @StoredProcedureName

I have created a new report with the query. When I run the query, you can see I get results for all columns (as expected).
I'm using a tablix report and just dropping the columns on the report. No other editing or customization of the report. I confirmed (twice) that the Field Name and Field Source are present within the
Dataset Properties > Fields page.
ROUTINE_DEFINITION is list as the Field Name AND Field Source.
When I run the report through Report Builder, this is what I see...
As you can see, the ROUTINE_DEFINITION column has no data. I also ran this same report outside of Report Builder editor by just clicking on the report to open it in a browser window. Same results... data for all columns except ROUTINE_DEFINITION.
Seems like this would be something between Report Builder and SQL Server when being displayed. Or could it be a permissions issue?

Just out of curiosity did you try using same query on a reporting services report and see if there's any change?

Stored Procedure for Crystal Reports

Hi All,
I developed this test stored procedure to see wheather we could a stored procedure for crystal reports. It compiled without any problem, but when I run it, it gives me error message. Here is the stored Procedure..
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE WOLD1SIM.TEST_PROCEDURE(
TEST_CURSOR IN OUT TEST_PACKAGE.TEST_TYPE,
TEST_PARAMETER IN TEST_TABLE.ID%TYPE)
AS
BEGIN
OPEN TEST_CURSOR FOR
SELECT *
FROM TEST_TABLE
WHERE TEST_TABLE.ID = TEST_PARAMETER;
END TEST_PROCEDURE;
And
This is the error message..
ERROR at line 2:
ORA-06550: line 2, column 1:
PLS-00201: identifier 'TEST_PROC' must be declared
ORA-06550: line 2, column 1:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
I have created the package sucessfully.
I was wondering If any one of you can advice me where I am making the mistake.
Thank you

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE WOLD1SIM.TEST_PROCEDURE(TEST_CURSOR IN OUT TEST_PACKAGE.TEST_TYPE,
TEST_PARAMETER IN TEST_TABLE.ID%TYPE)
...you have 2 parameters in your procedure WOLD1SIM.TEST_PROCEDURE(). you should also use two parameters when you execute the procedure.

Using stored procedures within Crystal Reports

Hello all,
Background Information:
I am trying to teach myself how to execute a stored procedure within Crystal Reports. This is an aspect of Crystal that my work group has not utilized before and we're trying to gather information on the subject. We use Oracle to create and execute functions and procedures all the time, but I've never tried this within Crystal.
I use the "Add Command" functionality within Crystal on most of my reports so that I can taylor the sql to the report. I find this easier to do versus using the ODBC connection to the tables and writing the code through the Crystal Reports wizard. I also frequently use functions within these sql statements that are inserted in the Add Command.
What I'm trying to achieve:
I have a report that needs to run as a "trial", and then later as a committed "run". This is for a monthly billing system. Essentially, the user will run the report as the "trial", preview the data, make any necessay corrections, and then later, run the actual billing run. Within my application, the bills are not actually marked as "billed" until they are actually "billed', if that makes sense. As a result, the "trial" report will need to mark the bills as "billed", generate the report, and then rollback the data (so that the bills are not "billed". Once the actual billing reports are ran, the same report will run, but with a "commit" at the end of the report so that the bills are now "billed".
I'm trying simple tests and failing (i.e. taking baby steps to learn what capabilities Crystal has):
I created as simple of a procedure as I can envision. This procedure inserts the word "test" in one of my fields for a provided account number. When I try to run this procedure via Crystal (via New Report ->History->My ODBC Database link->Stored Procedures), Crystal asks for the account number parameter, as it should. But I then receive the error message:
Database Connector Error: '42000:[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle]Syntax error or access violation'
The existing ODBC connection has work great for years and years to retrieve data from tables, but this is the first time I've tried to utilize procedures. Can anybody help? And can anybody explain what the Stored Procedures link is supposed to do? Am I going down the right path?
thanks,
Noel

Hello,
Make sure the Oracle client install path is in the PATH statement. And also make sure you are using an IN/OUT cursor. CR only reads the last SELECT statement. Search the Documents area on how to create a Stored Procedure.
Also, if you are using CR XI ( 11.0 ) then upgrade to CR XI R2 and apply all service packs ( SP 6 ). Go to this link: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc and download the trial version of CR XI R2 and use your XI keycode, then apply the patches which you can get to by clicking on the BusinessObjects tab above, then Downloads.
Direct link to the Trial version: http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/sme/freetrials/index.epx
It may fix your issue also.
Thanks again

Adding a stored Procedure to the Report

Hi,
I am developing a report using crystal plugin in eclipse.I have problems in adding a stored procedure to the report .I write the following command in SQL SCRAPBOOK dbo.StoredProcedure @Param1="param1",@Param2="param2",@Param3="None" and run it. It runs successfully ,but when i try to add it to report nothing is being added to it.
I am using a Sybase database and driver(com.sybase.jdbc3.jdbc.SybXADataSource)
Any suggestions regarding this would be of great help.
Thanks in advance

Hmm, not sure about stored procedures, but you can get SQL queries to work like below....
@method to get ResultSet from SQL query with user, pwd, and dbConnectionInfo
@param query, scrollType, user, password, dbName, db
@throws SQLException
@throws ClassNotFoundException
         private static ResultSet getResultSetQueryDBInfo(String query, int scrollType, String user, String password, String dbName, String db)
         throws SQLException, ClassNotFoundException
              String DBUSERNAME = user;
              final String DBPASSWORD = password;
              final String CONNECTION_URL = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@" + dbName + ":1521:" + db;
              Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection(CONNECTION_URL, DBUSERNAME, DBPASSWORD);
              DatabaseMetaData meta = connection.getMetaData();
              System.out.println("getResultSetQueryDBInfo - Connected to URL : " + meta.getURL());
              System.out.printf("getResultSetQueryDBInfo - as user: %s\n", meta.getUserName() );
              Statement statement = connection.createStatement(scrollType, ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
              System.out.println("getResultSetQueryDBInfo method - executing query: \n");
              return statement.executeQuery(query);

How to display stored procedure

what is the command to display stored procedure through sqlplus.

If you would like to get a view about the parameters of the procedure, just use
SQL> desc <procedure name>;
If you would like to see the code for the procedure, then use (assuming you are logged in as the owner of the procedure)
SQL> SELECT Text FROM User_Source WHERE Name ='PROCEDURENAME' ORDER BY Line;

Calling a stored procedure in crystal report

I am using crystal reports 11 on the front end connected to mssql server in the back end and i have a stored procedure written in mssql and has a view created. i want to know how do i call a stored procedure from crystal report when i run my report and how to pass the values from my prompt to the stored procedure

As long as the stored procedure returns a result set, the procedure should look and act just like table and the report will know what parameters are need to execute the procedure. If this does not answer your question, please provide more specifics.

Error connecting to stored procedure in crystal report

Hello
I'm using crystal reports 2008 with the latest service pack.
i'm trying to access stored procedure using the mysql jdbc driver 5.17. The crystal report has been designed which works fine with a login that created the stored procedure but when i try to run with another login that will used to run the crystal reports
The login has access to execute the stored procedure but entered in the crystal report it complains about
"User does not have access to metadata required to determine stored procedure parameter types. If rights cannot be granted, configure with {noAccessToProcedureBodies=true} to have driver generate parameters that represent INOUT strings irregardless of actual paramter types"

Hi Sharon
Thanks for response.
I have checked that the user has permission to read and write. When i try and execute the stored procedure in the database by login with the user, it runs fine.
When i try and call the stored procedure from crystal reports it throws that error message.

Call a pl/sql stored procedure from a report link

Hello everyone:
I have a report with a link in a column, which takes you to another page and passes values to that page, but also need the link, run a stored procedure before going to the other page.
In the Forum I found cases similar to this, but none of the examples is clear to me how I do this. It seems that the target of the link should be URL, and also I have to call the stored procedure with a javascript function.
My questions are:
- Is this the best method to make what I need?
- How should be the syntax of the link that takes me to another page and run the "stored procedure"
- How and where I put the function "javascript" to run the "stored procedure"
BDD: Oracle 11 g
Apex version 4.1
Best regards
Gerard

Hi,
Change the link to call an apex.submit process. (javascript).
Edit:
I've set up a basic example.
Region 1 (just so you can see the value getting set):
select :P27_HIDDEN item_Value
from dual
Region 2:
select rownum id, dbms_random.string('U', 12) sss
from dual
connect by level <= 20
item attributes for ID:
Target: URL
URL: javascript:apex.submit({request:'NAVIGATE', set:{'P27_HIDDEN':#ID#}});
(P27_HIDDEN is just a hidden item i created)
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=54920:27
Edit2:
In your case, then you can just have a page process based on conditions request = expression1, expression1: NAVIGATE..... then a page branch to go to the desired page, also with the same conditions
Edit3:
Im not sure what examples you are referring to , as you didn't supply any links; but you mention calling the stored procedure from javascript, so would likely involve some AJAX, but imo not necessary.

Getting error code 1 when calling SSIS package from a stored procedure (SQL Server 2008 R2)

Hello,
I am trying to execute a SSIS package from SQL Server 2008 R2 stored procedure but getting error code 1 (as per my knowledge, error code description is as below:
0 The package executed successfully.
1 The package failed.
3 The package was canceled by the user.
4 The utility was unable to locate the requested package. The package could not be found.
5 The utility was unable to load the requested package. The package could not be loaded.
6 The utility encountered an internal error of syntactic or semantic errors in the command line.
Details:
I have a stored procedure named "Execute_SSIS_Package" (see below sp) which executes 'Import_EMS_Response' SSIS package (when I execute this package directly from SQL Server BID it works fine it means package itself is correct) and calling
it from SQL as:- EXEC Execute_SSIS_Package 'Import_EMS_Response'.
Here I receives error code 1.
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue please?
Thanks in advance!
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[Execute_SSIS_Package]
@strPackage nvarchar(100)
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE @cmd VARCHAR(8000)
DECLARE @Result int
DECLARE @Environment VARCHAR(100)
SELECT @Environment = Waarde
FROM Sys_Settings
WHERE Optie = 'Omgeving'
--print @Environment
SET @strPackage = '"\W2250_NGSQLSERVER\BVT\' + @Environment + '\' + @strPackage + '"'
SET @cmd = 'dtexec /SQL ' + @strPackage + ' /SERVER "w2250\NGSQLSERVER" /Decrypt "BVT_SSIS" /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E'
--print @cmd
EXECUTE @Result = master..xp_cmdshell @cmd, NO_OUTPUT
--print @Result
END

It has something to do with the security.
E.g. cmdshell is not enabled or the caller has not rights over the package.
There could be a syntax error, too.
I suggest you make the package runnable off a SQL Agent job then trigger the job from the stored proc with
sp_start_job <job name>

ODBC Error connecting to a stored procedure SQL Server 2008 - Crystal 8.5

I am running a local copy of SQL server 2008 and get an ODBC error when connecting to any stored procedure with or without parameter. The database are running in SQL Server 2000 compatibility mode on the local server.
Do not get the error when connecting to one or more databse tables or when connecting to a stored procedure on a remote database.
The error reported is "ODBC error:[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server driver] Syntax error or access violation"
I am running Vista OS.
Any help would be appreciated..

Hello,
Interesting combination. All but CR 8.5 is supported on that OS.
When you created your DSN did you using the 2008 Client or MDAC?
I suggest you go back to supported platforms for CR 8.5
If not then start debugging Vista permissions to start with...
good luck

Using Stored Procedure Universe in Reports

Hi Friends,
I got some issues using SP's in Universe and WebI Report.
Case #1:
Can we execute dynamic SQL using stored procedure universe..?
I use SQL server as the DB for my reports.I created a SP which will execute on getting a input value from the user.This input value will frame the SQL dynamically in the SP.for executing the dynamic SQL i use sp_executesql inside the SP.The SP wexecutes successfuly in the DB but when i try executing it in the Universe i get a error message as follows: "Exception : DBD,[Microsoft][SQL SErver Native Client 10.0][SQL Server]Incorrect syntax nesr 'FROM'.State:42000"
The script i used for creating SP for your reference:
CREATE PROCEDURE P_S_GetCodeValueList
          @s_table nvarchar(75)
as
begin
          declare @s_sqlCommand nvarchar(1000)
          declare @s_tablename nvarchar(75)
          declare @s_code nvarchar(75)
          set @s_tablename=@s_table
          set @s_code = '*'
          set @s_sqlCommand= 'SELECT ' + @s_code + ' FROM ' + @s_tablename
          exec sp_executesql @s_sqlCommand
end
Case #2:
AIl also tried creating reports using the SP Universe which needs to get the parameter when the user refesh the report.
But every time the report is refreshed the report fetches the data which was produced when the SP is executed in the Universe for the first time.
I need to get the prompt in the report , to which the user could give a value and the SP gets executed for that value.
Is there any option in BO to do this?
It will be very helpful if you could give me some work arounds on this.
Regards,
Sugumar

Hi Sugumar,
I can answer you for your 2nd question:
When you create the Stored procedure in the Universe and test it on retreiving data by inserting variable input you can check if the user could insert new value for the SP parameters.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Giuseppe

Using Oracle Stored Procedure in Interactive Reporting

Hello,
i'm trying to use Oracle Store procedure in Interactive reporting but all i get are errors.
My env:
Interactive Reporting 9.3.1
Oracle Database 10.2
I created OCE as ODBC/OBDC. Tables are returned and Stored Procedure entry is enabled.
If i use "microsoft ODBC for Oracle" i can see stored procedure list but i get this error:
SQL API: [SQLExecDirectW], SQL RETURN: [-1], SQL STATE: [42000], SQL NATIVE ERROR: [6550], SQL MESSAGE: [[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:
PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'TEST_PDC_RECORDSET'
If i use Oracle's odbc i get: "Error in function sequence".
If i use Merants (5.2) odbc i cannot retreive stored procedure list. (list is empty)
Note.
My stored procedure works (tested via sqlplus).
thank u daniele

Returning (or sending in) multiple rows directly from (or to) a stored procedure is not currently possible. I have been in contact with SAP on this subject earlier, and they suggest using a web service to do the job. I used this as a work around, calling the stored procedure from a web service. I send in VC tables to this web service, and this in turn contacts my stored procedure.
The problem is related to the connector framework in the J2EE environment.
I am on 7.0 sps 17
If you use stored procedure single value parameters of type varchar, number ... then VC has no problem communicating with your procedures.
Good luck

Error Calling Oracle Stored Procedure From Within Report

Hi,
I have a report that calls an oracle stored procedure which returns a ref cursor. The report is working ok in our development environment when called from our development website through .NET.
When the report is moved and accessed from our UAT website we get the following error :-
Failed to open a rowset. Details: ADO Error Code: 0x Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle Description: One or more errors occurred during processing of command. Failed to open a rowset. Details: ADO Error Code: 0x Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle Description: ORA-06550: line 1, column 7: PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'RHS_GET_CAND_SECTION_REFS' ORA-06550: line 1, column 7: PL/SQL: Statement ignored Native Error: Failed to open a rowset. Error in File C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\temp_d663a952-bef6-4bf7-bf1a-5e288afdb612 {9B6DFB38-A436-4940-9D80-B4C23DFFFF19}.rpt: Failed to open a rowset.
If we open the report manually we are prompted to enter database connection info. If we enter the UAT connection details the report runs ok. If we save the report and try to open it from UAT website through .NET it now opens ok.
If we then move that same report back to the development environment and open from our development website it fails with the same error above.
Both connections are using Microsoft OLE DB drivers and the Oracle databases are the same version (10.2.0.1.0).
Is the connection information being stored in actual report and somehow being used when the report is opened through .NET?
Any help appreciated
Regards
Paul

Hi,
Please let me know if the issue occurs with the crystal reports designer, if you are facing issues with the .NET application then a need to create a post [here|SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio;.
