Hello Tony,
Your suggestion on the other thread is interesting and will be helpful on some other reporting I am doing. However, I am still running into an issue. I am unable to get the 2nd interactive report query below 114 columns since I have to keep those fields together so they can look at those fields when they make computations.
I never did say 100 + columns is "Always" needed. However, it is still a needed feature in my opinion. I been using APEX for 2 years. This is the first time I needed this many columns. I am currently working with Institutional Advancement, which by next month will want to have over 200 columns available to them since not only will they be looking at constituents but, they will want to look at corporations as well. Discover isn't an option at this time.
"Maybe someone can build an ad-hoc report builder for APEX applications that can be attached to applications? We have such items in Oracle Forms application I maintain now.."
That would be delightful...
Regards,
Kelly

APEX Interactive Report - CSV Export Limitations?

Hello,
I have an interactive report generated for some users.
The issue I'm having right now is that the results that the users need is over 100k and the export to csv option caps out at 65,535 rows. Is this a limitation on APEX Interactive Report's side and is there anyway to get around it so we can send 100k records (or more) to the users without them splitting the report many ways?
Thanks in advance.
Ivan

Ivan,
I'm afraid that I can't answer your question. The APEX insiders will have to field that one.
As one that dislikes voluminous reports, have tried swaying your users that you now have this great interface to drill to the data you need versus downloading gobs of data and filling up their hard drives. Ask if there is something else your application can do that they would do with all that data in Excel.

Setting the APEX interactive report items

Hi,
I need to reset the APEX interactive report items like apex_ir_APP_USER to some value.
I put the below jQuery code in the javascript header page it did not work:
<script type="text/javascript">
$document.ready(function() {
$('#apexir_APP_USER').val('NEW VALUE');
</script
Any suggestions ??
Thanks

The reason of me trying to set the apex interactive item is:
For the interactive report, we enabled the subscription service, so that users can subscribe for the selective reports.
So, when a user clicks the Actions button and selects the subscription option, then the couple of fields like email address, subject etc., are populated, with the default values.
The email address field is auto populated with the user id like abc.efg.
And, the email address field i would like to manipulate and change to [email protected]
Now i was able to change the value of the hidden variable, apexir_APP_USER with the below code but when i select subscription option i still see the same user id populated in the
email address field.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
alert('test'+ $("#apexir_APP_USER").val());
$("#apexir_APP_USER").val("Value changed");
alert('changed value '+ $("#apexir_APP_USER").val());
</script>

Download/print problems with Interactive Reports on 10g

Running APEX 3.1.1.00.9 on Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production with BI Publisher
When downloading Interactive report using xls/rtf - no data is shown, pdf - corrupted file error is shown. This seems to only happen with row counts over 20. Same tables with less rows populates fine with all file types.
This problem does not exist using the APEX.oracle.com site, same tables. Is this due to the DB version?

For addional info, I'm putting down major steps that I followed so that it can be confirmed for any missing links. Sorry for a little bigger post
1) $ORACLE_HOME\bin\rwserver.exe -install myRepSrv
2) Created a report in the reports builder, saved as .rdf
3) In Forms builder, attached the report as a new report object.
4) In a procedure to call the report, following code is written
----------8<---------------
repid := find_report_object('testreport');
set_Report_object_property(repid,report_filename,'testreport');
set_report_object_property(repid,report_COMM_MODE,synchronous);
set_report_object_property(repid,report_server,'myRepSrv');
v_rep_jobid := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
v_rep_stat := report_object_status(v_rep_jobid);
IF v_rep_stat = 'FINISHED' THEN
web.show_document('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,length('myRepSrv')+2,LENGTH(V_REP))||'?server=myrepsrv','_blank');
else
message (v_rep_stat||'- Report output aborted '||sqlerrm);
END IF;
----------8<---------------
5) Compiled the form and placed the form binary in approprite folder
6) modified $ORACLE_HOME\reports\conf\myRepSrv.conf. Changed the property of engine tag(sourceDir) to correctly point to the appropriate directory where the report has been saved
7) modified rwservlet.properties to turn off SSO
8) Started the external reports service with modified values
9) Invoked the form to launch the report
Please also note that if I invoke directly web.show_document and paste the hardcoded path, as can be expected, my work is done. But as can be agreed, this is not a very good approach.
Thanks and regards,
Kinjal Sonpal

Download to email in interactive reports returns same sender as recipient

Hello everyone
I just upgraded to Apex 4 and is very happy with it, and I love the feature to download and send by email option in interactive reports, which makes life a little bit easier. However, when I send the mail, I get the same sender e-mail, as the recipient I entered.
So when the mail with report arrives it says
from: [email protected]
to: [email protected]
Instead of
from: [email protected]
to: [email protected]
This is no dealbreaker, but it can confuse the customer that requested the report and think it might be something fishy with the attachment, thinking it's something bad like a virus.
Is there any way to change this? Cannot find anything in the settings to change this.
Sincerely
Johnny

Getting the same problem. Anyone found a solution or is this a bug

Is possible to save the user that uses the download action in an interactive report.

Hi,
In my application I want to save who is downloading the interactive reports information in any format, is it possible?
Regards

Hi Eva,
As far as I know there is not an out of the box option that shows you the user that is downloading the interactive report. I guess you would have to write your own logic for that.
You can create your own logging table and a dynamic action with
1) a pl/sql procedure to insert the logging into the table, and
2) submits the page with the appropriate download format, eg. f?p=&APP_ID.:&APP_PAGE_ID.:&SESSION_ID.:CSV::::
As trigger of the dynamic action you need to use either of the download buttons, so I'd suggest the jQuery selector "#apexir_dl*"
Kind regards,
Vincent

Download CSV-File from Interactive Report

Dear all,
I want to download a CSV-File from a Interactive report.
The content of the Rows in Excel:
Erste,"B","C","D","E","F","G","H","I","J","K","L","M","N","O","P"
IBC ->,"-","1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9","10","11","12","13","14" [...]
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks for help.

Your CSV-File use "comma" as separator. But Excel think, that CSV-File separator is "semicolon".
Try to set "CSV Separator"=";" in section "Report Attributes" - "Download".

APEX Interactive Report not shown complete on production system

Hello,
I have a problem with my Apex 4.1.1 application on customers production server.
On our development system (Oracle 11.2.0.3) the Apex IR with the query down below delivers 1.500 rows and the page loading is finished after 3 seconds.
On our customers production system (Oracle 11.1.0.7) the same IR shows only the first 800 rows and then page loading runs endless. When i add a pagination with 500 rows everything works fine.
When i execute the Query in SQL Workshop the 1500 rows are delivered on both systems within 0,4 seconds.
What could be the problem?
kind regards
Stefan
Here the source of the Interactive Report:
select o.oid, o.obj_id, o.obj_name, f.finanzst_oid finanz_kosten_oid, 'Finanzierung' art, fst.BEZ bezeichnung, f.grundstueck_bet grundstueckskosten, f.bau_bet baukosten,f.von_datum, f.bis_datum, f.sort
from afa_objekte o, afa_finanz f, afa_finanzst fst
where o.aktiv is not null
and o.oid = f.objekte_oid

any ideas? anyone?

Access download link in an Interactive Report

I've built an interactive report and one of the columns, File, is a download link. I assume the I can create a trigger to log when/who clicks on that link, because I have a trigger that runs when they first upload a file to the table that automatically grabs the SYSDATE and APP_USER. However, I don't know how to reference the download link. With the upload it is simply a button click, but the link is within the report and I can't seem to figure out how to interact with it. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
I think you can not use database trigger when someone select from table.
I would create e.g. application process that handle loging and then "download" file.
This might help you create code

APEX Interactive Report - sum multiple columns table1 X with table2 value

I have a challenge in oracle apex, were i want to sum multiple columns to give 3 extra rows namely points, Score, %score. There are more columns but chose only few for now.
Below is an example structure of my data:
Town | Sector | Outside| Inside |Available|Price
Roy-----Formal----0----------0----------1------0
Kobus Formal--0 ---------0--------- 1------0
Wika ---Formal----0----------0--------- 1------0
Mevo----Formal----1----------1---------1------0
Hoch----Formal----1----------1---------1-------1
Points--------------2----------2----------5-------1
Score-------------10---------10---------10------10
%score-----------20---------20---------50------10
Each column has a constant weighting (which serves as a factor and it can change depending on the areas) in this case the weighting for this areas are the ones in the first row for the sector Formal:
Sector |Outside| Inside |Available|Price
Formal----1----------1 ----------1-----1
Informal--1----------0 ----------2-----1
I tried using the aggregate sum function in apex but it wont work since i need the factor in the other table. Which is where my challenge started
To compute the rows below the report:
points = sum per column * weighting factor per column
Score = sum of no of shops visited (in this case its 5) * weighting factor per column
% score = points/Score * 100
The report should display as described above. With the new computed rows below.
I kindly ask anyone to assist me with this challenge as i tried searchin on the internet for solutions but havent come across any.
Thanks a lot for your support in advance!!

I kindly ask anyone to assist me with this challenge as i tried searchin on the internet for solutions but havent come across any.How critical to the solution is using an interactive report? It would be much easier to do this in a standard report where you've complete control over the query SQL and the report structure.
When you have a problem you'll get a faster, more effective response by including as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should include:
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
<li>Theme
<li>Template(s)
<li>Region/item type(s) (making particular distinction as to whether a "report" is a standard report, an interactive report, or in fact an "updateable report" (i.e. a tabular form)
With APEX we're also fortunate to have a great resource in apex.oracle.com where we can reproduce and share problems. Reproducing things there is the best way to troubleshoot most issues, especially those relating to layout and visual formatting. If you expect a detailed answer then it's appropriate for you to take on a significant part of the effort by getting as far as possible with an example of the problem on apex.oracle.com before asking for assistance with specific issues, which we can then see at first hand.

ApEx - Interactive Report

I have two issues with respect to Interactive Report in ApEx
1. I used the Aggegrate Function to sum up the values. Though the Values are displayed, i want to have the Wordings " Totals". How to go about that
2. In the Interactive Report, i use the Highlight option to color a set of rows based on some condition. Now after saving the report (primary), i as an end user still see the Query Part with an X. As a developer i dont want my end users to see that portion. From the end user point of view, he should be able to see the report with various colors as defined by me, but without seeing the X mark. (I got the answer to this through another forum,..thanks)
But the first one still remains...
Kindly help.

Hello,
Do you want some customers appear twice or not in your top 10?
If not in your select you would need to specify DISTINCT (or probably look a bit more inside the query because you might have a cartesian product that makes the rows appear more than once).
Next you can order by Value and then only show the first 10. You can do that dynamically with the interactive report or directly in your query. On Asktom you see some nice examples about top n queries: http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:2853107469873

Link to other pages of rows in APEX Interactive Report

In my Interactive Report I would like to add a way to click on page results other than just clicking the > to advance to the next set of results. I have my rows per page set to 15 by default and would like to keep it that way, but want a way to add links to page 4 or page 5 or page 10 as well. Has anyone done that before, and if so ideas would be greatly appreciated. I need to keep my rows per page to 15 because of parameters I send to another page, so increasing the rows per page is not an option. Thanks.

Hi,
The next button in your pagination fires a javascript function:
gReport.navigate.paginate('pgR_min_row=16max_rows=15rows_fetched=15')
You can create a page button or link containing that javascript function. Replace the number 16 by the rownumber you want to start your result set.
Kind regards,
Vincent Deelen

Between operator for group by date in Apex Interactive Reports

Hi,
In the interactive reports filter, i couldn't find the 'between' operator for date field (got a 'group by date' in my sql query (source). I am just wondering, Is it beacuse of the group by date clause?. Is there any way to show the 'between' operator in the interactive reports filter.
Thanks

I just opened an existing IR style report, went to actions, filter, selected a date column and found between at the bottom of the list of values.. Are you sure the date you are trying to filter on is a true date column?
Thank you,

APEX Interactive Report Compute Case with multiple conditions to highlight

My ultimate is to highligt a row in an interactive report based on two conditions. I didn't see a way to use the highligt feature with two conditions. So I thought I would try to create a computation based on the two conditions. Then use that result for the highligting. Though I don't seem to be a be able to use multiple conditions in my computation Case statement. Is there a different syntax?
Here is what I have:
Case
When C = 'Open' and I > 15 Then 'True'
Else 'False'
End The error I get is: Invalid computation expression. and
Application Express 4.0.2.00.07
Thanks!
Edited by: cjmartin on Jan 10, 2012 10:57 AM

I'm surprised no one responded to this. What I did to resolve this issue was create a nested case statement. I don't think this was a good solution, but I can't find anyone else giving input. I know I can create another computational column in the select statement for the report, but the 'Interactive Report' part is where this should be. I want my clients to calculate what they want. Kind of hard when you can not use an 'and' for a range criteria.

APEX Interactive Reports - Default number of records

With the new version of APEX (3.1.2) Interface Reports are available. This is a very nice functionalilty.
The problem is that the default number of records are put to 15.
Is it possible to put the default to 1000 for all users?
Thanks for all the input
Toon Schilder

Roel,
Thank you for the quick reply.
The problem is as follows:
In stead of manually updating page for page I would like to update the default of 15 to 1000 for all users for all pages.
Of course if for some reason for one page it should be 500 I can use your method (save to default report settings).
Is there a solution?
Kind regards,
Toon
