EBS 11i custom report format in Excel

We have developed Oracle EBS 11i custom reports in PDF / Text output format for a Customer. Now, the customer wants all of them to be converted into excel format since they want to do some data manipulation on the output. Are there any tools / utilities to quickly take care of this conversion?
The output has to look like an authentic excel file with proper pagination / headers etc. Any help is appreciated.

Read Custom format of Excel

I want to read custom date format from excel through JAVA:
Issue:
In my excel cell is of custom format MMYYYY. Which is 011900.
When i click on it It shows me 1/0/1900. I am using jxl.jar for reading excel.
When i am reading it through java it is not taking date as 0. So it is gicing me value 121899. Dont Know why??? Could you please help me. Its very critical to my project.
Thanks in adance.

There could be weird Excel stuff happening, or weird JXL stuff, but basically here's what is happening:
You have Day 0 of Month 1 of 1900. This is treated as the day before Day 1 of Month 1 of 1900, which if you get out your calendar you will see is actually Day 31 of Month 12 of 1899. And if you look at that with a format which displays only the month and year, you'll see 12 as the month and 1899 as the year.
So: don't treat something with only month and year as a Date, unless you're prepared to fill in the day part properly.

Report formatting in my way

I want to make a report which will show my DB table data the way I want.Most report tools just fetch the data and format it in a typical row. But I want to display my row data in a way that I want.For example, I want to show each cell data of a row in a particular place in a report. like- id, top-left, name,top-right
and so on. I use Jasper report and QBEspress but can they format data this way.if so, can anybody give me a link for the tutorial.

Hi Meenu
I'm using the EPM report formatting and excel.
I tried to make a macro run too.
But when updating loses the reference.
Following code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change (ByVal Target As Range)
'Validates that was enacted i4 cell
If Target.Address = "$ I $ 4" Then
     'Colours range from white
     'Record a macro with its original formatting and replace this snippet
     Range ("I11: T11"). Select
     with Selection.Interior
         . = Pattern xlSolid
         . PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
         . ThemeColor = xlThemeColorDark1
         . TintAndShade = 0
         . PatternTintAndShade = 0
     end With
     Range ("I12: T20"). Select
     with Selection.Interior
         . = Pattern xlSolid
         . PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
         . ThemeColor = xlThemeColorAccent2
         . TintAndShade = 0.799981688894314
         . PatternTintAndShade = 0
     end With
     'Sets the last column to be colored
     Order = Replace (Format (Target, ">"), "V", "") + 8
     'Tests whether the final column is greater than 8
     End If> 8 Then
         'Colours range.
         'In this case the first line is 11 and the last line is the 20, but can be changed according to the need
         For Each C In Range (Cells (11, 9), Cells (20, End))
             C.Select
             with Selection.Interior

Reports in MS Excel Application

Hi, All,
We are using Oracle 10g database and forms. We have installed Jinitiator version 1.3.1.22.
We are generating some of the reports in MS Excel Application from the Oracle forms.
To generate the report in excel format we are using Client_OLE2 command.
Recently we got a client machine with windows 7 OS with IE 10.
In this client machine once we open the report opening screen and select the report format as Excel the Runtime application is getting expired.
In this case we have to close entire internet explorer.
The same report is opening in other format like PDF and HTML.
This is a very very important requirement to us.
Please help me.

Sandeep V

Hey Sandeep,
I am working on a similar format for a report and if possible can you please give me some guidelines. I have initially created reports using XML Publisher, but for those , the output preview format was PDF. So, if I select the preview format as EXCEL will it give me output in Excel and for this to happen, how do I define the rtf template. I believe the working will be same as for PDF, create a rdf report, get output in XML and apply the template to get the data in Excel or there is something different to this.
Thanks,

Date format in Excel report output

Goodmorning All.
Am using XML publisher for some reports. The current report is in Excel. Everything is fine on this. I want to print the date parameter in 'MON-YY' format.
In the 'Text Form Field' option, I have used the type as 'Regular Text'. In the 'Add Help Text' using the formatting as follows: <?format-Date:P_TO_DATE1;MM/YYYY?>. This seems to send the date parameter '1-Jun-12' as 'Jun-12'. But when it opens in excel, Excel assigns the cell 'Custom' format and type as 'd-mmm-yy' instead of 'mmm-yy'. So the final output still comes in DD-MON-YY format.
I have tried changing the type to 'DATE' and date format to 'MMM-yy' in the 'Text Form Field' option. But still the excel custom format is overriding the final output.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Z

Hi Alex,
I used the following code in the 'Form field help Text': <?xdoxslt:format_date(P_FROM_DATE1,'MMM-yy','yyyy-MM-dd', 'en-us', $_XDOTIMEZONE)?>
Then I wrote some letters immediately after that and ran the report. When I opened it in excel, Excel assigned format category as 'General' to the output cell. So the output now comes as desired format as 'Jan-12XYZ'.
So it seems, if there will be some additional characters after the dates, then excel does not auto reformat the XML output to the custom date category.
Now the big question; How to do it without the trailing characters i.e. 'XYZ' in the above output. If I remove them, then Excel will again try to custom format the date. I read soemwhere that blank space can be used to append but am not sure how it will be in the code.
By the way in the 'text Form Field Options' I am using type as 'Regular Text'.
Appreciate any help.
Thanks

Formating MSA Excel Reports created in MSY

Hello All,
we want to format a excel report, that was created in MSY.
for example we use the Business Query BSACTIVITY with 'from' and 'to' date parameters.
The result is then in the Excle sheet BSACTIVITY.
We have created some programming in the sub "Workbook_BeforeSave"
to copy the data from BSACTIVITY to a new sheet called Calender.
When we run the report creation a second time, the data is written to the same file again, but is not creating a new workbook.
Has anyone experience with the formating of those excelreport ?
We run CRM 40 SP 09.
Thank you for your help.
Best reagards

Hi,
I just want to push this topic.
For me it's the same problem. I want to format a Excel report which was created in MSY.
How can it be done to save the customized design of the excel sheet? Is it possible to save the design in MSY or is it necessary to create an excel makro?
Thanks in advance!

11i EBS XML Publisher Report with Multiple Data Source

I need to create XML Publisher report in 11i EBS pulling data from another 10.7 EBS Instance as well as 11i EBS in single report.
I am not allowed to create extract or use db links.
My problem is how to create Data Source Connection using Java Concurrent Program.
The approach I am trying is
1. create Java concurrent program to establish connection to 10.7 instance.
2. Will write the SQL queries in Data Tempalete with 2 Data Source 1 for 11i EBS and 2 for 10.7 EBS
3. Template will show the data from both query in 1 report..
Is there any other way to proceed using datasource API...
thanks

option1:
The query should be same @ detail level, only the template has to be different for summary and details.
@runtime, user can choose to see the detail/summary
Disadvantage, if the data is huge,
advantage , only one report.
option2:
create two separate reports summary and details
and create diff data and diff layout and keep it as different report
Advantage, query will perform based on the user run report, summary/detail, so that you can write efficient query.
Dis advantage , two reports query/template to be maintained.

Need to export OBIEE report in native excel format

Dear All,
Apologies if this issue has been discussed earlier in this forum. I am posting this afresh since I could not find a proper thread pertaining to this problem.
Here is a snapshot of my issue:-
While exporting a report in excel this exports this in mhtml format instead of native excel. As a result, the generated files are way bigger than expected and every day we are receiving multiple complaints from the end users. We tried to fix this by changing the messages files as mentioned in few blogs but could not make this work. Our current reporting system is on 11.1.1.6.
In some of the online blogs I read that this issue is supposed to be resolved in 11.1.1.7. Can any one please confirm if this is indeed the case? Also, if any one can advise of any other resolutions it would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance.
Regards

Vbez1,
Thanks for your response.
The way we are working at the moment is :-
1. Ask users to download in .csv if they just need raw data
2. While storing/sending the .xls files we have asked them to save the file as a excel workbook
However no workaround could be achieved for the reports sent as excels by agents(clogging spaced in user's mailboxes) or actual download volume of the formatted excel reports (excel taking an awfully long time to open the files).
As you mentioned, I heard that this issue was fixed on 11.1.1.7. Since this version is released for more than a quarter now, I wondered if someone out there can confirm that this has happened really.

Sudarshana

CF Report Builder and Excel format

Hi Everyone,
I was trying to display a report in excel format in report builder. It shows the data, but I do not find the print button options, whereas I can see it with other formats. Is this the way it is, or do I need to format anything more within my report for showing up the print button option?This is only happening for excel format
Thanks

Hi Keiko,
Yes, CF Report builder is new and initially there was few
issues with this. But I guess now it's good after hotfixes.
Well, I am using CF Report Builder. It's good for me. You can
also design and develop complex reports, that depends upon the
query you are writing. You can also add subreports to your main
reports.
Mainly CF Report is platform independent and you can also
generate reports in PDF, EXCEL and FlashPaper.
Crystal Report is no doubt is very good, and it's there for
long years. I agree you can create complex reports with this, but
you also can do the same in CF also. You are using this for last 10
years, so I guess you should try something new and that is CF
Report Builder and you can judge then.
I am sure you will have fun with CF.
Thanks

ABAP Custom Report (ALV Format) in Background Processing

Hi
I am not the hardcore ABAP Person. But want to know about the detail fact of the ABAP Custome Reports. The question is can we do the background processing for the ABAP Custome Report in ALV Format.
If Yes ..do we require to have any additional Function/code to get the spool in ALV Format. I saw the comments that the output will look like the mess.
Please share your comment or any useful documenation on this. We are in ECC 6.0
Thanks in advance..and yes it will be rewared by points.
Navin

You can use alv's in background using docking containers, but the display wont be interactive. If you search the forum you will see tons of threads which talk about running ALV's in background.
For the output to be interactive, you can run the report in foreground and do the data processing in background.
