Error creating a user defined report in the grid control

I am trying to create a simple User Defined report in the Grid OEM
Under the 'Elements' tab I have a 'Type' - 'Database Table from SQL'
And I have this 'Statement' - SELECT * FROM SYS.DBA_USERS
When I Click the 'Preview' button I get this error.
Error rendering element. Exception: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
I'm logged on as SYSTEM.
Isn't the SYS.DBA_USERS table accessible by SYSTEM?
Any advice on what I'm doing wrong/

What are the tricks?
It has to be some what supported since I found this somewhere in an Oracle note...
How to create custom reports on tables other than mgmt* views.
To create reports on other tables, grant permissions to MGMT_VIEW user as MGMT_VIEW is responsible for creating reports in grid control
SQL> GRANT SELECT on SYSMAN.<table_name> to MGMT_VIEW;
And then create the reports in the reporting framework referencing SYSMAN.<table_name> in the query.
I tried GRANT SELECT on SYS.DBA_USERS to MGNT_VIEW but this did not work.

Nightmare creating an user defined report

here is the problem:
I need a report that shows a list of tables based on some name criteria, something like this for example :
select
object_name
from user_objects
where object_type='TABLE'
and object_name like 'AR_%'
and based on the table name, I need to make a query on the the selected table ...
tried different strategies, but nothing worked ...
anybody already had a problem like this ?
thanks

found a way to make it work using the TABLE() function
1. created the need types
CREATE TYPE data_report AS OBJECT(
     LINE INT,
     MESSAGE VARCHAR2(250)
CREATE TYPE data_report_table AS TABLE OF data_report;
2. created a function that will be used in the TABLE()
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION data_from_table(table_name VARCHAR2)
RETURN data_report_table PIPELINED AS
TYPE cur_typ IS REF CURSOR;
c cur_typ;
one data_report := data_report(NULL,NULL);
query_str VARCHAR2(250);
BEGIN
query_str := 'SELECT ROWNUM,SITE_HUM_ID FROM ' || table_name;
OPEN c FOR query_str;
LOOP
FETCH c INTO one.line, one.message;
EXIT WHEN c%NOTFOUND;
          PIPE ROW(one);
END LOOP;
CLOSE c;
     RETURN;
END data_from_table;
3. created the main SQL report
select object_name
from user_objects
where object_type='TABLE'
and object_name like 'AR_%'
4. created the Child Report
select * from
table(data_from_table( :OBJECT_NAME ))

SQL field (not large enough) - Create Report Dialog - User Defined Reports

When creating a user defined report it would be good to have the sql field the query is entered into bigger. The tiny size is awkward for large queries.

When you increase the window size, we increase horizontally but not vertically. I will log an enhancement request to see if we can get it longer.

Cannot create user defined report

Guys,
For an unknown reason, I'm unable to create new reports in some subfolder inside the "User defined report". When I rigth-click on the subfolder, the contextual menu contains only "Copy" and "Paste". But If I'm going to the root folder (User defined report), I'm able to create a new subfolder and new report. I'm even able to create an new report in the subfolder.
Did you already encounter the same issue and how did you solve it ?
Thanks

I vaguely remember someone having issues with user defined report operations, the problem there was solved by changing the user language to English by adding
AddVMOption -Duser.language=ENto the sqldeveloper.conf file normally located in
SQLDEVELOPER_INSTALL_DIR/sqldeveloper/binIf you are not already running in English try changing this.

2.1.1 Problem with User Defined Reports with actions on the context menu

I use the User Defined Reports quite a lot, and export and publish these to other members of the team as Shared Reports. I'm also quite disappointed that there seems to be no further development in this area of SQL Developer.
One of the totally undocumented features of User Defined Reports is the ability to attach actions to a context menu, and pass data from the grid to a procedure, for example. Copying, then exporting the sessions report (from All Reports -> Data Dictionary Reports -> Database Administration -> Sessions) exposes the XML for adding actions to the context menu. The snippet for killing a session looks like this:
<item reload="true" reloadparent="false" removeFromParent="false">
<title>Kill Session</title>
<prompt type="confirm" >
    <label>Kill Session?</label>
    <default><![CDATA[]]></default>
    <value><![CDATA[]]></value>
</prompt>
<sql><![CDATA[ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION '#SID#, #SERIAL#' IMMEDIATE]]></sql>
<help>Kill the selected session.</help>
</item>So to add this type of functionality to your own user defined reports, you need to export the report, edit the XML, and import it again. It seems to work fine to add this to the master reports, but if you add an <item> element to the child reports, the context menu items appear on the master report too, and they are duplicated many times. I'm not sure if the action of exporting the report adds to the number of times the context menu appears.
Warning - if you edit a report using SQL Developer, all the <item> tags are removed. Once you've added actions to a context menu, you can only edit the report by exporting it, modifying the XML and importing it again.
Has anyone else seen this behavior? Have you found a work-around?
To the SQL Developer team: Are there any plans to allow the adding of user defined context menu items to reports using the GUI in the near future?

You're right the context menu needs a GUI desperately. You can request this at the SQL Developer Exchange, so other users can vote and add weight for possible future implementation.

How to create a user defined trigger and execute my form

Hi All,
I am working with oracle Apps r12 and oracle forms 10g.
I have created a custom form. So i need to create a special menu and when the user click the menu it need to open a new block and query it accordingly.
I have followed this link
http://egeapp.egeseramik.com:8000/pls/prod/fndgfm/fnd_help.get/us/fnd/@g_special#g_special
and created a special menu in my custom form
In PRE_FORM trigger i have coded this
APP_SPECIAL.INSTANTIATE('SPECIAL3','&ACTION HISTORY DETAILS',NULL,TRUE,'LINE');
and IN PRE_BLOCK i have coded this
APP_SPECIAL.ENABLE('SPECIAL3',PROPERTY_ON);.
Now the special menu is enabled when i press it shows error
that frm-40700 no such trigger:special3.
Now i came to know that we need to create a user defined trigger put the code and when we press special menu it need to query it accordingly.
Can any one tell the steps that how to do that accordingly.
Thanks & regards

Storing User defined reports in SQL Developer

Hi All,
I have created some user defined reports in SQL Developer. My company requested me to update the OS from Win XP to Win 7. I forgot to export those reports. I got my machine back, they said that the data is retained. Now i need to take those reports back. Can anyone tell me in which folder would SQL Developer stores the User Defined Reports by default? My bad I dont remeber the Report Name too.
Can anyone help me on this?

Saving SD User Defined Report

I am creating a user defined report in tcode MC21. When i try to save it asks me for a package. Which package do i use. do i use already existing packages or i need to use a new package. If try saving without the package the system refuses. If i save the Info Structure as a Local Object it tells me the Self defined Info structure will not be transportable. How do i handle this.

Ask the abaper which package currently they are using and use the same package.
Reward if it useful.

SQL Developer user defined reports (appropriate utilization)

I have used SQL developer on a limited basis but I have never created a user defined report. Can someone compare and contrast the
types of user defined reports that can be created via SQL developer versus the types of user defined reports that can be created via
a tool such as Crystal Reports or similar tool.

Hi user7753875 -
I agree with reidelme that it won't match the capabilities for fancy organisation/output of tools like Crystal Reports, but you can do interrelated parent/multiple child reports.
Check out the Reports tab on the SQL Developer Exchange for some examples of what other users have done with this.

Turns out no one has used that in a long time. You will have to do some interpretive cut/past from xml given by web site & report editor in SQL Developer. Here is the "Who" report (master+2 child reports) from the exchange in a format you can use the import function from "User Defined Reports" on.

[3.0.04] Delete user defined report folder

Hello Forum,
a few days ago, I got a new computer and exported my user defined reports from the old installation. After importing these into the new installation, all reports were put into an additional subfolder. Since I'm using german localization, the reports were put into "Benutzerdefinierte Berichte/Benutzerdefinierte Berichte". I could move them one folder up by cut and paste, but now I would like to delete the empty subfolder, but I don't have any menu options to do so.
Is there any way to get rid of that subfolder?
Many thanks in advance,
dhalek

Hi Binom,
Correct. In fact similar behavior reported in earlier posts such as...

Problem Editing User Defined Report - 1.1.0.22.71

When I rt click on an existing user-defined report on the Reports tab and select edit, change the default value on a bind variable and click Apply, I get message "Name already used please enter new one" message and changes will not save. Am I missing something here or is this a bug?

I expected that if I basically did a "save as" the issue could be avoided. But I wanted to be sure that if I'm maintinanig a set of shared reports I can edit an existing report without having to jump through a hoop or two. Is this issue being addressed?
Thanks
