Financial statement generator & Oracle Reports Manager

We are moving into Oracle Apps R12.1.3 on Solaris. Most end user machines are Windows 7 & going to be Windows 8. Some are Windows XP. Majority have Microsoft 2007 and some have Microsoft 2010.
Financial Statement Generator (FSG) reports are called from GL Super user as well as Oracle Reports Manager. Attempt being made to open FSG reports directly in Oracle Reports Manager > Excel with drill down.
Experiencing errors (of VB) , after some patching seeing Blank Excelsheet. Though same FSG report can be open with Values in Oracle Reports Manager > html and pdf.
Any body experienced this in recent past.

Hi Hein,
Thanks for the reply and I do have access but apart from standard/customized reports, sometimes users create their own reports using FSGs where they pull GL data (No sub-ledgers) by defining rows and columns and many more features.
For eg: pulling up trial balance report by cost centers
Is there any equivalent of these Financial Statement Generators in SAP.
I was thinking about defining the "Variants" in each report and run variants but then thats not limited to GL, I guess
Thanks in advance....

Adding a field to an sql statement in Oracle Reports error ORA-00933

We have been requested to add a field that already exists in the table referred to by the sql statement in Oracle Reports Builder. The report was set up by a consultant about 3 yrs ago and we don't really have much skill in this area. What is happening when I try to modify the SQL statement, either adding a field or deleting a field to the SELECT statement, causes an error message preventing the statement from being saved. The only way out of the error message is to click Cancel. The error message is
ORA-00933:SQL command not properly ended
ORDER BY Program ==> NAME
Even adding or deleting a space anywhere in the SQL statement causes the error (not adding any new fields). A coworker found that if we comment out the ORDER BY, the statement will accept the new field in the SELECT section, however then we lose the order by functionality. I would like to add one additional field before the FROM. Not sure if any additional data are needed. Thank you.

Hi Denis,
I tried your suggestion. The good thing is that adding the comma allowed me to be able to add a.campus to the select statement, unfortunately, another error message happened.
ORA-00936: missing expression SELECT p . person_uid PIDM_KEY ,
p . id_number , p . full_name_lfmi name , p . BIRTH_DATE , p . GENDER Sex ,
Decode ( a . residency , 'D' , p . Primary_Ethnicity , 'F' ) Ethn , a . academic_period TERM ,
CASE WHEN : P_group_by = 'PROGRAM THEN a I started over and tried only putting in the comma and get the same message even though I didn't add campus. After that, removed the comma which led to the ORA-00933 error message. So once again, I had to close the file without saving, in order for the report to run at all.

Financial Statement Generator in SAP FI

Hi,
Oracle has FSG that unables users to generate reports out of Oracle GL. Is there any equivalent report generator in SAP for users to create reports on ad-hoc basis.
Thanks

How to open new window and generate oracle report from apex

Hi,
I had created an application that generates PDF files using Oracle Reports, following this Guide.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/howto_integrate_oracle_reports.html
And I followed 'Advanced Technique', so that users can't generate PDF file by changing URL and parameters. This is done for security reasons.
But in this tutorial, when 'Go' button is pressed, the PDF file is displayed on the same window of apex application. If so, user might close the window by mistake. In order to avoid this, another window have to be opened.
So, I put this code in the BRANCH - URL Target. (Note that this is not in Optional URL Redirect in the button property, but the branch which is called by the button.)
javascript:popupURL('&REPORTS_URL.quotation&P2100_REP_JOB_ID.')
But if the button is pressed, I get this error.
ERR-1777: Page 2100 provided no page to branch to. Please report this error to your application administrator.
Restart Application
If I put the code 'javascritpt ....' in the Optional URL Redirect, another window opens successfully, but the Process to generate report job is not executed.
Does anyone know how to open new window from the Branch in this case?

G'day Shohei,
Try putting your javascript into your plsql process using the htp.p(); procedure.
For example, something along these lines should do it:
BEGIN
-- Your other process code goes here...
htp.p('<script type="javascript/text">');
htp.p('popupURL("&REPORTS_URL.quotation&P2100_REP_JOB_ID.")');
htp.p('</script>');
END;
What happens is the javascript is browser based whereas your plsql process is server based and so if you put the javascript into your button item Optional URL Redirect it is executed prior to getting to the page plsql process and therefore it will never execute the process. When you have it in your branch which normally follows the processes, control has been handed to the server and the javascript cannot be executed and so your page throws the error "Page 2100 provided no page to branch to"... By "seeding" the plsql process with the embedded javascript in the htp.p() procedure you can achieve the desired result. You could also have it as a separate process also as long as it is sequenced correctly to follow your other process.
HTH
Cheers,
Mike

GENERATING ORACLE REPORT IN ADF

Hi,
i need to generate offer letter for student.
an admin will need to generate offer letter of student bases on their intakeId, branchId, degId, and typeofferletter.
currently im doing this in adf form. from here how to transfer the information in adf form into offer letter template and print it in pdf?

Hi,
actually there are two questions in one:
1: How to call an Oracle Reports from ADF?
Answer is to use the Oracle Reports URL to request a report. The data submitted by an ADF form could be passed as URL parameters or - if sensitive information is involved - saved in a temporary table for reports to look it up. Have a look at for an option to download the PDF by referenring the Reports URL http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/apirefs.1111/e12419/tagdoc/af_fileDownloadActionListener.html
2: How to generate PDF from ADF
Jasper Reports, BI Publisher or POI are the options people use for reporting in ADF. Jasper Reports and BI Publisher allow the creation of PDF documents based on form content submitted from ADF

Command to open a PDF generated Oracle Report in New browser window

I know this is probably something for the Oracle Forums but I'll ask anyway because I can't find any info out there on this, without some extra work.
I am generating a PDF file from 10g Oracle reports on Linux RHEL 5 and storing the PDF file to the server. I can send that PDF file directly to a printer with the "lpr" command and that part works fine.
What I'm wanting to do now is "View" the PDF from within the server in a new window. We are using RHEL 5 (Linux) platform and I'm trying to see if there is a way to open the file with a "command line" command that will open it in a new browser window or new window period (opening it with Adobe Acrobat).
Does anyone have a command that will do this? Otherwise, how has everyone else been handling this. The idea of just viewing the previously generated PDF Report file will save us overhead on our database servers because they won't have to re-run some of the same reports over and over.
Any help and assistance is appreciated.
Chris

Several options:
- If you only want to show the pdf to the client without printing, use destype=cache and use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT after the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT (for examples search the forms-forum, there are lots)
-If you have to generate the pdf to a file to get it printed, you could
+use WEBUTIL_FILETRANSFER.AS_TO_CLIENT after the printing to transfer the file to the client, then use CLIENT_HOST to view it.
+map the appserver-directory you generate the report to as a virtual directory in the application-server then use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to directly access the generated file via url.

Oracle Report Manager - Please help

Just a quick question for anyone familiar with this product. We have Oracle Applications/Financials 16.1, 10.7 SC and run on DG-UX. It looks like Report Manager is only available for NT and Solaris.... will the Solaris version work on the DG-UX platform as well?
Thanks in advance,
Darius

hello Thiru
thank u for ur help.
here i donot find necessity of using Distinct and groupby clause.
as the docnos are unique in the table i was referring,further
iam not using any function so as to use groupby clause.
Ofcourse i will try with LOV by calling reports from forms.
This particular table contains 12000 records ,each record has 1
doc no assigned to it.That means i want all the 12000 docs to be
viewed in the parameter so that i can select one doc no to view
that particular report.

Financial Statement Version in Report Painter

Hi there,
Can anybody please assist. When you have made changes to a FSV, you copy the structure to Report Painter with KE5b - but this is only for GLPCT table (EC-PCA). Which transaction can be used to do the same for cost centres CCSS table?

Hi,
1: search SAPNET with search terms "report painter, authorization", guess you find some useful notes.
2: Try T-code KE5B to convert Financial Statement Verison sets to sets that can be used in report painter.
Best regards, Christian

Programmatically change the query used to generate Oracle Reports

I have two queries. Depending on some parameter value, I would like to use one of these queries to generate my report. Is it possible to programmatically change the SQL query used to generate the Oracle Report.
Thanks

There are two options:
- The easy way
In the report paper layout create two frames, one for each query , and at runtime
display only one based on your parameters. (using format triggers on the frames)
- the not so easy way (but more elegant)
create the query at runtime using xml customizations using the examples from
the following documentation:

Confusion with a current state of Oracle Identity Management

I would like to know if anyone has successfully implemented the complete suite of IdM. If yes, please share this experience. I want to clarify the definition of "successful integration". It should include the following:
- SSO for Partner applications
- SSO for External (third parties) applications
- Provisioning and Synchronization
- Delegated Administration
- WNA with Kerberos
- SAML implementation (optional)
I would appreciate all answers on this subject

To restart from your initial question, it's quite strange because the components you mention are all included in the AS10g Enterprise Edition or in AS10g Portal, and are perfectly integrated. I know numerous customers which use Oracle Portal, for instance, and leverage on SSO (patner or external), Delegated Administration (DAS) , Synchro with AD server and Windows native authentication, without a single line of specific code. Provisioning is done automatically by DIP in the case of Portal with AD, as well, or with a Human resource system. Even the password synchro can be made betwwen AD and OID (Oracle LDAP)
Now, it's a sligthy different discussion if we consider the recent acquisitions made by Oracle, and which are sold in the so call : Oracle Identity management 10g.
OAM (previously Oblix) is a more ambitious product that Oracle SSO.
OIM (provisioning and identity management) is far more sophisticated than Oracle DIP.
The goal, for Oracle, is to unify the workflow engine and the Human interface (with ADF). This task is probably on the rails for the next year.
OVD (previously OctetSting) is an architectural component which allow virtualisation of LDAP server.
About Federation, OIF allow all existing Oracle Portal customer (using SSO) to rely on SAML tokens in order to trust partners site.
So, in my opinion, acquisitions oblige to make a substantial effort to unify human interface and make arbitration between some concepts, but it's within the Oracle means.
