Filtering Calendar style report

One of my users likes my calendar style report but wants to add a drop-down menu and select a user name which the calendar would then use to filter its information. "All users" will also be an option.
My Calendar is already coded but I'm new to Apex so I"m reluctant to experiment with it. How do I do this in Apex?
Steve "the n00b" in Raleigh NC

To make it clearer what my problem is, I have a calendar format report with the following code to select the data that goes on the calendar. Here is the code:
select
"ID",
"ACTIVITY_DATE",
"CONTACT_NAME",
"USER_NAME",
"SUMMARY"
from "EBA_VER2_CUST_ACTIVITY"
where (:P22_USER_NAME_FILTER = USER_NAME)
or (:P22_USER_NAME_FILTER IS NULL)
P22_USER_NAME_FILTER is an item on the page which, if it's not null, controls which user's activities are displayed. If it's null (as I expect it would be On Load), then the Select should get activities for everyone.
However, when I run this thing I'm told I need an INTO parameter and the job crashes. What's going on?

  • Customized Reports - Graphics / Calendar Style

    Hi,
    I'm a project scheduler,
    experienced with P5 & P6. I'm currently using
    Primavera P6.1. I haven't done much report writing, and I
    am currently tasked with creating two customized reports.
    <strong>GRAPHICS ON
    REPORTS?</strong>
    One of the reports is
    an overall look at a project, so it would include the
    project start/finish and project level user defined field
    values. The UDFs are indicators. I want the report to show
    the graphic value of the indicator, but I'm not sure how
    to make P6 report editor give that. It seems to only be
    able to give the text value ("green"). Is there a way to
    make the report choose a graphic based on the value of the
    UDF or code?
    <strong>CALENDAR
    REPORT?</strong>
    I know a lot of people
    want to create a report that is essentially a lookahead,
    but on a calendar layout. I've asked Primavera if this is
    possible but they referred me to the PARs. I contacted a
    couple but haven't found a calendar report. So does
    anybody have any suggestions for creating a calendar style
    report? It would list each task that is either starting,
    ongoing, or finishing on that particular day.<br
    />
    All suggestions appreciated!<br
    />Thanks,
    Sarah

    Hi Jim,
    Thanks for the reply. I
    don't like the sound of that - exports for graphics.
    Do you mean export all project data & then use it
    in some other tool to create the report? Like build an
    excel template to process csv data? :cringing:<br
    />
    I'm using P6 Web and it's got nice
    graphics but you can't create a full PDF printout of
    all the data which is why I'm trying to build the
    report.

  • Different calendar styles: seeded vs. custom date fields

    All,
    In several reports we prompt users to select an opportunity close date (seeded date field) that is within a given period of interest using a prompt on the close date field. The calendar style provides two buttons to select the starting and ending points. Then the user must select the refresh link to narrow the date range and then pick the first and second dates. This requires five clicks. Users find this cumbersome.
    In contrast, we have a couple of reports that use a custom date field and users are prompted to select a beginning and end date. For this custom date field the calendar style provides a calendar button that allows you to directly select the first and second date without having to filter the range of possible dates. This is obviously only two clicks and is preferred by users.
    Does anyone know how to get the "nice" date picker to apply to seeded date fields as in the first case?
    Thanks,
    Dan

  • How to show more than one record at a form-like style report?

    Hi All,
    I developed a form-like style report
    I want it to show more than one record at once (At the same page)
    I tried that by setting the value to "Maximum records per page" property for the repeating frame to 10
    but when I close the property palete and open it agian the value is returned to 1 !!!
    how to show more than one record at the same page?????
    Thank u

    Hi,
    there's perhaps another property like "page protect". If than 2 records didn't fit at one page there's a page break. Or is there any object inside the repeating frame with page-break properties? Sorry .. it's like looking into a chrystal ball ...

  • Need Matrix Style Report...

    I need to create a matrix style report. There is a template for matrix reports in Oracle Report Writer, but not in APEX. My report should have a list of countries going down and a list of species going across with data showing how many for each country, each species.
    Example of report:
    Species Pollack Whiting Tuna
    Country
    China 5 6 10
    Chile 1 2 1
    Japan 4 4 8
    How do I build this?

    Is this in Oracle 11g?? If so, you could use the pivot function in your sql to build the output data..

  • How to use linked filters in webi reports.

    Hii.. all
    I want to know how can i  use related or linked filters in webi reports.
    that means if i am using three diff filters as f1 for Zone f2 for location and f3 for sales office
    then if have selected a zone from the zone  filter (for ex west) then the location filter should show only the locations which comes under that zone and the third filter should show only those sales offices which comes under the selected location from the filter..
    Plz help..
    thanks

    hi Neeraj,
    1. In Universe Take Storename, city, State, region, Country objects
    2. Double click on Storename, go to properties tab and click on edit button. Query panel will open.
    3. Double click on city and click on sort button, double click on state and sort it, double click on region and sort it, double click on Country and sort it.
    4. If you want to keep any condition like particular country, you can drag country object in to the Conditions pane.  If not leave it empty.
    5.Click on Save and close button. Save the universe and export it.
    6. In webI drag and drop the Storename object and click on 'Add Quick Filter' button.  Now all the columns you included in the list of values appear in the Add Quick Filter dialog box.
    Now You can select the values from here and run the query.  you will get the result.
    One more way is there using cascading LOVs
    1. Go to Tools menu > List of values > Create Cascading list of values.
    2. Double click on Country, Region, State, City and Storename.  Close it.
    3. Save and export the universe.
    4. In webi drag and drop the objects in result objects pane, apply query filter and run the query.
    Now you will get the result.

  • Left Group style report highlight row issue

    I have a Left group style report that I need rows highlighted for sub-total lines in the report. I have coded it with the following in a fiield after the for each of the report
    <?if@row:PERF_NON_PERF='Sub-Total'?><xsl:attribute name="background-color" xdofo:ctx="incontext">yellow</xsl:attribute><?end if?>It highlights MOST of the row but ends up missing the last few columns. The page setup has been set to landscape to maximize the amount of data being displayed.
    I can send along sample data and rtf file if needed, just seems rather... Weird...

  • Can we apply saved filters to union reports in obiee 11g?

    Hi All
    Can we apply saved filters to union reports in obiee 11g?
    I am able to apply saved filters for normal reports but not for union reports.
    The catalog pane is blank, when i click on result columns or each criteria.
    The only option i see is to manually create the filters for each criteria, dont i have any choice to use a saved filter for union report?
    Is this a bug or something i am unaware of , Please guide me.
    Regards
    Pranati

    I get the same issue. I thought that it's a problem in a security - the catalog pane is clear in a union report. But saved filters work in 11g. I migrated catalog from 10g to 11g and I see saved filters in the conditions. But you may add saved filters directly into xml. Go on Tab Advanced and edit Analysis XML. You have to add code like this
    <sawx:expr xsi:type="sawx:savedFilter" path="/shared/FOLDER/_filters/FOLDER/FILTER_NAME" name="FILTER_NAME"/> in a right place.

  • Prevent dashboard prompt from filtering a particular report on page?

    I have a dashboard page with 1 prompt and 5 reports. The first object on the dashboard page is a dashboard prompt with a date range for created date.
    The request is to filter the first 4 reports based on the dashboard prompt, and then the last report NOT be filtered based on the prompt.
    Right now - the date range entered in the dashboard prompt is filtering all 5 reports.
    Is there any way to prevent the prompt from filtering a particular report on the dashboard page?
    Thanks!

    Just wanted to provide an update as to what I learned from the SR I opened.
    Dashboard prompts apply to all reports on the page which either:
    * Have the "is prompted" filter selected
    - OR -
    * Are filtered in any other way
    In my case, my last report was filtered on the created date to exclude any data prior to July 1, 2010. Because this hardcoded filter was applied, then the report automatically was picking up the date range filter from the dashboard prompt and applying that date range to the report instead.
    The workaround was to create a new column on the report formatting the date as YYYYMM and applying a filter to the report as >= 201007. With this, the dashboard prompt is now not applied to filter this report.

  • Dynamics CRM usage of CRMAF_ filters in sub reports

    Have a main SSRS report which uses CRM pre filtering via the "CRMAF_" prefix, this report calls a sub report which needs to use the same pre filtering as selected and applied via the main report.
    The sub report is a summary total presenting the information in a different order than the main report but needs to run over the same dataset that the main report did.
    Would like to see a worked example of how this can be achieved ? 

    I'm thinking I may just have to go with two seperate reports that both use the same CRMAF pre filtering.
    The advantage of using the automatic pre-filtering is when the report is deployed I assign the related record type and can then run it over 'selected records' from the list screen.
    With the explicit pre-filtering when the report is deployed I can assign the related record type but then it can only be run over 'all records' from the list screen.
    So with explicit pre filtering I loose the ability to run the report over a selected subset of the related records.
    Looks easier to create two seperate reports (rather than a main and a subreport), the user can choose the records to report on from the related list and then just run the two reports after each other.
    Thanks for your help guys.

  • Two column telephone directory style report

    ah ok, you never said you were data merging them.
    in short, data merge doesn't have a feature like microsoft word where there is a "next record" TEXT field which lets the records flow on.
    instead, data merge works by merging the elements on the page, so if you were to merge the file and in the options turn on the multiple record feature, you'd see that many text boxes were generated but they're not threaded together... but the text boxes do have record one, then record two, then record three...
    indesign's data merge is best suited to generating data where one record changes per page. yes, it can do many records per page, but this is ideally suited to people who are imposing their own business cards many up on a page; or people making picture heavy catalogues with set amounts of records per page. indesign's data merge is not built for catalogue-style in-line data merges similar to microsoft word's mail merge to catalogue.
    for your purposes, i'd use XML but that is user unfriendly. there are CSV to XML converters online (assuming your database isn't too huge) and a great resource called "A Designer's Guide to Adobe InDesign and XML: Harness the Power of XML to Automate your Print and Web Workflows" written by James Maivald and it is about the only easy to pick up and run with book out there on the topic. There is another book by Grant Gamble on the topic and no offense to him, but my brain was full by chapter three.
    otherwise, aftermarket plug-ins such as ones made by cacidi systems or emsoftware may help.
    or, does this really need to be a data merge solution? could the text not simply be placed into indesign rather than using the data merge feature? i'd imagine the data is already in the correct order, just needs formatting. if that is the case and the excel file is available, i'd save it out as a tab delimited TXT format and place that into indesign and then format it with nested styles.

  • Matrix Style Reports

    Hi,
    I'd be interested in ideas for producing a matrix-style report (similar to that possible with Oracle Discoverer or Pivot Tables in spreadsheets). Example below. I've tried dynamic SQL (report based on function returning a SQL query) but this quickly gets very complex.
    Are API's available (similar to the form item api's) for laying out HTMLDB sytle report headings and rows directly ?
    Matrix Example
    Imagine you have sales data by product and date e.g.
    Product Date Sales
    A 2003 100
    A 2004 75
    B 2003 50
    I would like to display a matrix report similar to
    Sales 2003 2004 ...
    A 100 75
    B 50 ...
    ...

    htmldb currently installs with a package called wwv_flow_rewrite_query. it's not technically supported, but it's really solid code ...and i think it does pretty much what you're hoping to do (pivot sql query). if you look in your $OHS_HOME/marvel directory you should see a file there called wwv_flow_rewrite_query.sql. fortunately that package isn't wrapped. better yet, it's loaded down with documentation. i'd take a look there to see about your report. if you have questions on the concepts (not the package), the author can be found discussing the topic at...

    ...but basically, you'd us the package to rewrite your query, returning wwv_flow_rewrite_query.as_pivot to the htmldb reporting engine in your Function Returning SQL Query region.

  • Problem in matrix style report

    i have generate a matrix style report which has 5 X 4 = 20 cells . now in the report all cell values should not be filled according to the data in the tables but every cell in the report is filled . and more is that the filled values in the cell which are supposed to be blank is repeated from other cells . what is this problem and how to correct it ? i have an idea that this might be some varibale issue but cant figure it out .plz somebody help me out from this

    Hi,
    This problem of REP-1813 because,the data fetched into a matrix cell exceeds the capacity of the cell--
    e.g., the cell may contain a variable field, and the data may be longer than expected.
    Therefore, to solve this issue u may want to either enlarge your matrix cells until they are able to contain the data fetched into them, or redefine your data.
