Download to CSV problem in APEX report

Greetings,
I have a report that retrieves a lot of rows from the database, I have set the Mx Row Count to 25000. When the user tries to click on the download to csv link, it just works for a while and times out.
The other problem in this is that the report itself is taking a long time to run.
Any suggestions on improving the performance and solve the above mentioned problem will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Vatsa

Interactive Report Download to csv problem

Hi,
I have 2 applications. Both in the same workspace, same APEX version. Within those applications I have Interactive Reports.
When I use the download to CSV (IR) in the first application I get all the available data in my CSV. It ignores the filters that are applied!
The second application does not have this problem. If I have an IR with 10000 rows and I apply a filter to select only a 100 rows and I download, I get my 100 rows in csv.
It's suppose to work as I describe for the second application. I want to download the rows with the filter applied. What could cause this??

I had an similar issue. Found out submitting the CSV action was nulling out my filter as viewed in session state. the page item I was using needed to have the SOURCE changed from "Always replace..." to "Only when NULL..." This fixed the Download issue.

Download to CSV format in Interactive report

Hi all,
We have APEX 4.2. We have created Interactive report on a table. When we download that report to csv, everything is fine except for loan number which is a varchar2(50 Byte) (e.g. 210568900000000012). It is shown as 2.10569E+15. When we try to format the cell as text, it rounds off the number (e.g 210568900000000000).
Please advice.
Regards,
Andy

I encountered this issue previously, but regarding leading zeroes. It was really a battle with Excel - not APEX.
Although I'd be interested to see if anyone has found a workaround that made Excel interpret it as a character instead of a number. We tried a few leads but to no avail.

Problem providing download link for BLOB data in apex report
591953 Nov 19, 2008 1:55 PM (in response to 660436)
Currently Being Moderated
Good morning,
Here is how I have solved this problem.
1. The select statement in the sql for the report should not include the BLOB column. I decided to select only 2 columns, the column that has the key and the column with the filename.
2. On the first column ( the primary key ) I put in the format statement that was simply DOWNLOAD:TABLENAME:BLOB_COLUMN:PRIMARY_KEY
This works. I believe that the Oracle error I was getting was because I was trying to apply this format statement to the actual BLOB column.
So, it appears that you can use any of the columns in the report to hold the DOWNLOAD format statement since in the format statement, you are defining the BLOB table, BLOB column and the primary key into that column.
Hope this helps,
Don.

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".

Problem in exporting report in CSV format

Hi All,
I am using Crystal Reports. Following are details about it:
CR Developer
Product 8.5.0.217
*_Problem that I am facing:__*_
I can create report in .rpt format, it is working fine here. But while trying to export this report in CSV format, it gives report that doesn't contain any information.
Is it because I am missing something or it is a known issue?
Thanks and Regards,
Anand

Hi,
I too am facing the same problem.
The report was made in 8.5. I have exported the report & opened it in Crystal report 12.
I can export to PDF, RTF, DOC & Tab separated Test.
However when I export this report in .csv (legacy mode) I just get the header & when I export it in .csv (Standard) I get a blanck .csv file.
I have checked 'Isolate Report/Page sections' and 'Isolate Group sections'. Still no data in the report.
refreshed it too.
I contains sub reports, but not in the page header & footer (I think) & it does not seem to have cross tabs & OLAP grids.
Any help is appreciated.

ORA-20876 in csv export from interactive report = Possibly a bug?

Hi Apex team,
yesterday i tried to download data to csv from an interactive report. The resulting csv file contained a "ORA-20876: Stop APEX Engine" only and no other data. I played around with other reports in my application and had no problems with exports.
After some investigation i found out that the buggy report contains a column of display type "Display as text (based on a LOV, escape special characters)". When I changed this column type to "Standard Report Column" for example, the error didn't appear anymore and the csv export contained complete data.
Maybe this is a bug? The environment is Apex 4.1.1.00.23 on 11g (UTF-8). Is there a workaround available?
Regards,
Jens
Edited by: j.gauger on 06.02.2013 14:10
Additional Information
The problem seems to occur only if a Shared Components LOV of type "Static" is referenced in the IR column.

Hi,
what happens if you take the query from IR report and create a new classic report?
On this report enable csv export and then try the export.
Maybe that (format) data are causing export to fail.
Try to export just one row in your IR report (and classic report), so that you add where rownum < 2.

Aljaz

Time Out during Download of CSV file

Hello everybody,
I need some hints regarding CSV Downloads.
In some cases I am getting just blank pages after starting a CSV Download.
It seems to be related to the a,ount of data.
At about 5000 rows the download works fine, but with about 10.000 rows I am getting blank page.
It does not matter wether the download is started from an interactive report vie the menue or from a static report via the link.
I know that the query is running at about 20 seconds for the 5.000 rows.
A look into the Enterprise Manager tells me that the following function is using nearly all the CPU time during this session.
declare
rc__ number;
simple_list__ owa_util.vc_arr;
complex_list__ owa_util.vc_arr;

My ApEx-Version is 3.1.2.
Anybody any idea what might cause this problem?

Hi,
if your APEX applications are accessed from Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) you can increase the 'TimeOut' directive in the OHS configuration.
The default value for this directive is 300 seconds.

No Data Found In APEX report

Hello All
I am new to APEX and have a problem. I have created several reports in APEX that allow users to extract data into Excel. However, one report says that No Data is Found in excel although data appears when report is run. Hope I am making my self clear.

Arie,
in my case I must have hit a bug (still using Application Express 2.2.1.00.04): I observed this "no data found" issue, and worked around it by just disabling CSV export in the report settings and re-enabling it again afterwards.
I don't quit understand why we need to apply procedures likes those described in http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:117 : shouldn't a CSV export simply work when the corresponding report is non-empty?

How to do outer join select query for an APEX report

Hello everyone,
I am Ann.
I have one select statement that calculate the statistics for one month(October 2012 in this example)
select ph.phase_number
, sum ( (case
WHEN ph.date_finished IS NULL OR ph.date_finished > last_day(TO_DATE('Oct 2012','MON YYYY'))
THEN last_day(TO_DATE('Oct 2012','MON YYYY'))
ELSE ph.date_finished
END )
- ph.date_started + 1) / count(def.def_id) as avg_days
from phase_membership ph
inner join court_engagement ce on ph.mpm_eng_id = ce.engagement_id
inner join defendant def on ce.defendant_id = def.def_id
where def.active = 1
and ph.date_started <= last_day(TO_DATE('Oct 2012','MON YYYY'))
and ph.active = 1
and UPPER(ce.court_name) LIKE '%'
group by rollup(phase_number)
Result is as below
Phase_Number     AVG_DAYS
Phase One     8.6666666666666667
Phase Two     14.6
Phase Three     12
     11.4615365
I have other select list mainly list the months between two date value.
select to_char(which_month, 'MON YYYY') as display_month
from (
select add_months(to_date('Aug 2012','MON YYYY'), rownum-1) which_month
from all_objects
where
rownum <= months_between(to_date('Oct 2012','MON YYYY'), add_months(to_date('Aug 2012','MON YYYY'), -1))
order by which_month )
Query result is as below
DISPLAY_MONTH
AUG 2012
SEP 2012
OCT 2012
Is there any way that I can join these two select statement above to generate a result like:
Month          Phase Number     Avg days
Aug 2012     Phase One     8.666
Sep 2012     Phase One     7.66
Oct 2012     Phase One     5.66
Aug 2012     Phase Two     8.666
Sep 2012     Phase Two     7.66
Oct 2012     Phase Two     5.66
Aug 2012     Phase Three     8.666
Sep 2012     Phase Three     7.66
Oct 2012     Phase Three     5.66
Or
Month          Phase Number     Avg days
Aug 2012     Phase One     8.666
Aug 2012     Phase Two     7.66
Aug 2012     Phase Three     5.66
Sep 2012     Phase One     8.666
Sep 2012     Phase Two     7.66
Sep 2012     Phase Three     5.66
Oct 2012     Phase One     8.666
Oct 2012     Phase Two     7.66
Oct 2012     Phase Three     5.66
And it can be order by either Phase Number or Month.
My other colleague suggest I should use an left outer join but after trying so many ways, I am still stuck.
One of the select I tried is
select a.display_month,b.* from (
select to_char(which_month, 'MON YYYY') as display_month
from (
select add_months(to_date('Aug 2012','MON YYYY'), rownum-1) which_month
from all_objects
where
rownum <= months_between(to_date('Oct 2012','MON YYYY'), add_months(to_date('Aug 2012','MON YYYY'), -1))
order by which_month )) a left outer join
( select to_char(ph.date_finished,'MON YYYY') as join_month, ph.phase_number
, sum ( (case
WHEN ph.date_finished IS NULL OR ph.date_finished > last_day(TO_DATE(a.display_month,'MON YYYY'))
THEN last_day(TO_DATE(a.display_month,'MON YYYY'))
ELSE ph.date_finished
END )
- ph.date_started + 1) / count(def.def_id) as avg_days
from phase_membership ph
inner join court_engagement ce on ph.mpm_eng_id = ce.engagement_id
inner join defendant def on ce.defendant_id = def.def_id
where def.active = 1
and ph.date_started <= last_day(TO_DATE(a.display_month,'MON YYYY'))
and ph.active = 1
and UPPER(ce.court_name) LIKE '%'
group by to_char(ph.date_finished,'MON YYYY') , rollup(phase_number)) b
on a.display_month = b.join_month
but then I get an error
SQL Error: ORA-00904: "A"."DISPLAY_MONTH": invalid identifier
I need to display a report on APEX with option for people to download at least CSV format.
I already have 1 inteactive report in the page, so don’t think can add another interactive report without using the iframe trick.
If any of you have any ideas, please help.
Thanks a lot.

First of all, a huge thanks for following this Frank.
I have just started working here, I think the Oracle version is 11g, but not sure.
To run Oracle APEX version 4, I think they must have at least 10g R2.

About the select query you suggested, I run , and it seems working fine, but if I try this,
it return error ORA-01843: not a valid month

The requirements are:
The user must be able to request the extract for one or more calendar months, e.g.
May 2013
May 2013 – Sep 2013.
The file must contain a separate row for each calendar month in the requested range. Each row must contain the statistics computed for that calendar month.
The file must also include a row of totals.
The user must be able to request the extract for either Waitakere or Auckland or Consolidated (both courts’ statistics accumulated).
Then the part that I am stuck is
For each monitoring phase:
Phase name (e.g. “Phase One”)
Avg_time_in_phase_all_particip
for each phase name,
Add up days in each “phase name” Monitoring Phase, calculated as:
If Monitoring Phase.Date Finished is NULL or > month end date,
+(*Month end date* Minus Monitoring Phase.Date Started Plus 1)+
Otherwise (phase is complete)
+(Monitoring Phase.Date Finished Minus Monitoring Phase.Date Started Plus 1.)+
Divide by the numbers of all participants who have engaged in “phase name”.
This is the words of the Business Analyst,
I try to do as required but still struggle to identify end_month for the above formula to display for the range of months.
Of course, I can write two nested cursor. The first one run the list of month, then for each month, run the parameterised report.
But I prefer if possible just use SQL statements, or at least a PL/SQL but return a query.
With this way, I can create an APEX report, and use their CSV Extract function.
Yes, you are right, court_name is one of the selection parameters.
And the statistics is not exactly for one month. It is kind of trying to identify all phases that are running through the specified month (even phase.date_started is before the month start).
This is the reason why I put the condition AND ph.date_started <= last_day(TO_DATE('Oct 2012','MON YYYY')) (otherwise I get negative avg_days)
User can choose either one court "AA" or "BB" or combined which is all figures.
Sorry for bombarding you a lot of information.
Thanks a lot, again.

Leading zeros in apex reports

Hi,
In an apex application, when user downloads data from an apex report into csv, it loses the leading zeros because excel thinks it is a number.
Is there a way to keep the leading zeros?
Thanks

I'm afraid but I think that the simplest way is to "quote" the string (so that Excel take it as "text").
Example:
SELECT
'="'|| c1 ||'"'
FROM
select 'MX190' c1 from dual
UNION ALL
select '00190' c1 from dual
Or, sometimes, I save the ".csv" file and load it with Excel's Wizard that allow to specify the column to be considered text ...
But for a normal user is a complex solution...
Thanks

Hide / Show Column in Download to CSV

Hi,
I have an IR where I have to show a column in report, but hide it while downloading to CSV.
I get this by having a condition on this column -
NVL(:REQUEST,'EMPTY') NOT IN('CSV','XLS','PDF','XML','RTF') I also have a column where I have to hide it in the report, but show it while downloading to CSV.
I am able to hide it, but this column doesn't show up while downloading.
I am using this coundition on this column
NVL(:REQUEST,'EMPTY') IN('CSV','XLS','PDF','XML','RTF') APEX - 4.0.2
Thanks.

Please Update on this..I have a same query as above..Thanks

Can we export the APEX Report in Customized XL sheet.

Hi,
I can download the APEX Report in .csv format but for eg; If I have an XL named as abc.xls and then, How can I download the APEX Report in the abc.xls file.
Thanks in advance,
Priyanka

Then just overwrite the same file each time?
If you have the spreadsheet with a pre-formatted report that you want updated then this isn't really an APEX question. You can connect to the database using ODBC within excel and just refresh the data when needed.
Cheers
