Run report from PL/sql procedure

Please any one tell how to I run a report from pl/sql procedure.

I am not sure, but depending on your environment you can create a script to run your PL/SQL code and then generate the report. As is customary in an UNIX environment utilizing shell scripts.

Send a report to report server from PL/SQL Procedure

Hi Report Gurus,
Please can I know how to run a report from pl/sql stored procedure. Is there any way to execute URL from PL/SQL?
Thanks,
Simi.

Why, yes there is!
If you're talking about PL/SQL stored in the database, check the function UTL_HTTP.REQUEST. A "describe utl_http" in SQL*Plus will do the trick.
But if you're talking about PL/SQL inside Forms, you can use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT instead.
Hope this helps,

Invoking XML Publisher Report from PL/SQL

Hi,
I have a PL/SQL procecedure which invokes the Concurrent Request for the XML Publisher Report. This one finishes with a warning and I get 'Unable to publish output' when I try to view the output. Exact Error: "Unable to find the published output for this request "
But if I run the same report using Concurrent program, the Report executes with no error. Also the desired output is coming. I am not sure where I am doing wrong in code.
My code which invokes the XML Publisher Report (from PL/SQL package)is something like this:
declare
x boolean;
l_no_of_copies varchar2(45);
l_printername varchar2(45);
l_print_style varchar2(45);
l_result boolean;
y number;
begin
x := fnd_request.add_layout (template_appl_name => 'XXTMG', template_code => 'XXT_5001_BOL_T', template_language => 'EN', template_territory => 'US', output_format => 'XML');
l_no_of_copies := fnd_profile.VALUE ('XXTMG_SH_BOL_REPORT_NO_OF_COPIES');
l_printername := fnd_profile.VALUE ('XXTMG_SH_BOL_REPORT_PRINTER');
l_print_style := NULL; --For setting the Printer Options
l_result := fnd_request.set_print_options (l_printername, l_print_style, l_no_of_copies, TRUE, 'N');
l_result := fnd_request.add_printer (l_printername, 0);
y := fnd_request.submit_request ('XXTMG', 'XXT_5001_BOL', '', TO_CHAR (SYSDATE, 'YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'), FALSE, 'CH-120079') ;
end;
Please let me know where I might be going wrong
Thanks

Hi Sumit,
You can try with this code:
exec dbms_application_info.set_client_info(org_id)
exec fnd_global.APPS_INITIALIZE(user_id,resp_id,appl_id);
declare
x boolean;
l_no_of_copies varchar2(45);
l_printername varchar2(45);
l_print_style varchar2(45);
l_result boolean;
y number;
begin
x := fnd_request.add_layout ('XXTMG' --template_appl_name
          ,'XXT_5001_BOL_T' --template_code
          ,'en' --template_language
     ,'US' --template_territory
     ,'XML' --output_format
if (x=TRUE) then
y := fnd_request.submit_request (
                    'XXTMG'           --application
                    ,'XXT_5001_BOL'      --program
                    ,SYSDATE          --start_time
                    ,FALSE               --sub_request
                    ,'CH-120079'          --argument1 (Program's Parameter)
if y>0 then
          dbms_output.put_line('Request ID '||y);
end if;
end if; --if (x=TRUE) then
end;
Make sure that program has only one input parameter. If program has other parameters then you can pass those parameters like argument1, argument2... etc.
Now you can see this submited request in your application using your user id. If you able to see your request in concurrent request then you can add printer parameters in this programs.
You don't need to pass all 100 parameters.
I am executing many programs/reports using this code.
Thanks

REP - 300 Error while executing report from Application

Hi,
I have report in Report Builder & for the same report form is there in Form Builder in which parameter page is designed. From application where I am calling report is internally calling form & in form Procedure Run Report is there which is calling report from Report Builder. Both report from builder & form form Builder are compiled . Also query is executing fine in Toad without error. Also all query fields are present in database.
But when I am trying to excute report from Application it is giving error as "REP - 300 Invalid Identifier " & it displays whole query.
Note - Report & it's Form are in ORACLE - 10g. Also the user through which I am executing report from application is ADMIN user , so it has executing permission.

looks like error in parameters. check out the value of variable that you are passing through to report from form. Put a messages to see variable values before execute report.

Generating reports from PL/SQL

I'm new to the world of BI Publisher - so far I'm impressed with what I've seen. I've managed to create a report and an RTF template and generate some nice looking PDF's :)
What I need to do now is to have a nightly job that produces PDF shipment reports using my template for all new shipments generated during the day and I'm having a little difficulty putting it all together.
I've looked at the BI Publisher API's that allow me to generate an XSL from my RTF template and the using the FO engine merge the XSL and XML data to produce the PDF. Then using the delivery manager API's I can send these reports out via email.
I'm a little unsure of how to get the XML source - I've played around with the DataEngine API to generate XML from a SQL query so I think that's where I should be heading.
Does this all sounds right ? Ideally, I want to be able to do all of this from within a scheduled PL/SQL job every night but all the interaction with the BI server seems to be via Java.
Is there an easy(ish) way to run all of this from within PL/SQL ?
And should I be going about this by:
1/ generate XML data using dataengine API
2/ create an RTF template using word and the xml data generated above
3/ use the RTF processor to generate an XSL-FO from my RTF template
(1-3 will only need to be done once)
4/ Then my nightly job will use the dataengine to generate new shipment XML data
5/ use FO processor to generate PDF's from each
6/ use delivery manager API's to email out
All sounds very cumbersome and intense -is there no easier way ?! :) Also, I'm thinking i should be using the bursting engine to split one query containing all the new shipment data and generate/mail a PDF for each shipment ? Is that necessary if all going to the same email address ?
Help/guidance/suggestions greatly appreciated !
Many thanks,
Brent

Hello,
a package is provided : srwAPIins.sql installs the Event-Driven Publishing API.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_17/bi.1012/b14048/pbr_evnt.htm
The Event-Driven Publishing API is a PL/SQL package that provides the basic functions required for the development of procedures that respond to events in the database. Event-driven jobs are submitted using the HTTP protocol. The server assigns a unique job_ident record to every call, useful for tracking the status of the job.

Creating Excel Workbook from PL/SQL Procedure

I am trying to create Excel Workbook with two worksheets from PL/SQL procedure. I created one worksheet. Can I create a separate sheet from same procedure. I used OWA_UTIL.MIME_HEADER ('application/vnd.ms-excel', FALSE)
command to create the spreadsheet.
Any help would be helpful.
Thanks
Yagna Shah

Further to my previous post here is how I will develop a typical master details excel report.
by using the package,
It will also show sum of salary at each department.
Note : When I paste the code here I loose the indentation. So the code below is not indented properly.
DECLARE
r NUMBER := 0 ; --- r IS the ROW NUMBER IN this excel file
l_sum NUMBER ;
BEGIN
--- Generate the styles that we need
gen_xl_xml.create_excel( 'UTL_DIR','master_Detail.xls') ;
gen_xl_xml.create_style( 'dept_title' , 'Arial', 'Red',14, p_backcolor => 'LightGray' );
gen_xl_xml.create_style( 'sgs2' , 'Arial', NULL ,10, p_bold => TRUE );
gen_xl_xml.create_style( 'sgs3' , 'Arial', 'blue',14 );
gen_xl_xml.create_style( 'sgs4' , 'Arial', 'green',14 );
gen_xl_xml.create_style( 'emp_title' , 'Arial', 'Black',9, p_backcolor => 'LightBlue' );
gen_xl_xml.create_style( 'sal_tot' , 'Arial', 'Brown',13, p_backcolor => 'Yellow' );
-- SET ANY COLUMN AND ROW changes
gen_xl_xml.set_column_width( 3, 145 );
gen_xl_xml.set_column_width( 4, 145 );
l_sum := 0 ;
FOR recd IN ( SELECT department_id, department_name FROM departments ) LOOP
IF l_sum <> 0 THEN
r := r +1 ;
gen_xl_xml.write_cell_char( r, 4, 'Department Total ->' , 'sal_tot' );
gen_xl_xml.write_cell_num( r, 5, l_sum , 'sal_tot' );
l_sum := 0;
END if ;
r := r+1 ;
gen_xl_xml.write_cell_CHAR( r,1, 'Department : '|| recd.department_name , 'dept_title' );
-- As we need same style applied till the above data flows use write_cell_null
gen_xl_xml.write_cell_NULL( r,2 , null );
gen_xl_xml.write_cell_NULL( r,3, 'dept_title' );
gen_xl_xml.write_cell_NULL( r,4, 'dept_title' );
gen_xl_xml.write_cell_NULL( r,5, 'dept_title' );
--- Add employee heading
r := r+1 ;
gen_xl_xml.write_cell_CHAR( r,2, 'EmployeeID' , 'emp_title' );
gen_xl_xml.write_cell_CHAR( r,3, 'First Name' , 'emp_title' );
gen_xl_xml.write_cell_CHAR( r,4, 'Last Name' , 'emp_title' );

FOR rec IN (SELECT employee_id , first_name , last_name, salary FROM employees WHERE department_id = recd.department_id ) LOOP

END LOOP ;
END LOOP ;

Calling a report from a Stored Procedure

Is it possible to call a Oracle Report from a Stored Procedure or a Packaged Stored Procedure. If Yes, please provide some details.
Thanks
Shalu

Shalu,
there's an API available to do this.The feature is called "event driven publishing" (because you can use this even from a trigger) and you can find the documentation here:

Creating web service from pl/sql procedure

Hello.
I need to create a web service from pl/sql procedure and i chose JDeveloper for this implementation. I have wsdl, but I never created web services. So, I created web service with document/literal message format.
But I have several troubles:
1. All element names have lower case letters.
2. The SOAP envelope must begin from words soapenv:Envelope but i have soap:Envelope.
3. And operation name has tail like "Element".
I know bad way for implement 1 and 3 points. It's a modification of java_wsdl_mapping.xml and wsdl files. But if I want to add new method to my service all changes will be cleaned. It's not critical but inconvenient to support.
But for point 3 i have no ideas.
This task is very important for me. Can somebody help me?
JDeveloper 10.1.3.3

Aleksey
