Force refresh a report

Hello,
Is there a way where we can refresh the report when the user opens it. Without having the user to click on refresh ?
We are having some JS code in the report and without refresh it doesn't seem to fetch the latest values.
Thanks in Advance.

Thanks for the reply John.
I have attempting to use the "Bypass Oracle BI Presentation Services Cache" it works well with a simple report. However when I use it over some of the other more complex answers I'm getting some really strange results. Essentially reports seem to run forever, the session monitor suggests they are complete however they never render on the screen. This problem seems particular to reports which are navigated to via a navigation target.
The problem also seems to adversley affect presentation services even requiring a restart before they return to normal.
Have you had much experience using "Bypass Oracle BI Presentation Services Cache". I've noticed there seems to be a metalink article and bug raised (Doc ID 737840.1), Oracle's suggestion: "Customers should only check this bypass cache box in rare circumstances for fast-running requests"
This doesn't really satisfy our requirement.
Cheers
Tim

    Right now, i have a script scanning the logs for either the 'forced refresh' or the HTTP2228 entries and then remove the object in question but clearly not ideal.

  • Error while refreshing a report using local csv file

    Hi,
    I'm using BI 4.1 SP02.
    While using Rich client, I've created a report with some merged queries, while one of the queries is a local CSV file - saved on AD in some server, and not on the repository inside BO.
    While trying to refresh the report with the Rich client, it all went great.
    Now, while using BI Launchpad java based app, I can't refresh the report - I get the following error:
    "An Internal error occurred while calling 'processDPCommandsEx' API. (Error: ERR_WIS_30270) (WIS 30270)"
    Should I be able to refresh a report without the Rich if it contains a local file (which is possible to EDIT only with rich) ?
    If so, then did someone ran into this error?
    Thank you,
    Or.

    First of all, thanks for both of the replies.
    Second,
    my problem is unlikely have to do something with permissions from one reasons -
    when the report is using XLS\XLSX on same folder(with same name prefix) - the report is running without any problem.
    Only problem is while refreshing without Rich while the source is network CSV file.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

  • How do you refresh a report after an update?

    Hi all,
    I have a Welcome Page that has several Portlets on it. One of the Portlets is a QBE report. From the report a user can click on a column record and be transported to a form, where the user can modify the record. Once the user is satisfied with the changes, the user hits the UPDATE button and is transported back to the Welcome Page. The only problem is that the Report has not been updated. Refresh does not work on the web toolbar and the only way I figured out on how to refresh the report is to go into the 'Customize' page and make some sort of change and hit O.K. After that, I am redirected back to the Welcome Page with the Report refreshed with current data. How can I refresh the report, without going into the 'Customize' Page? What code does the 'Customize' page do, to automatically refresh the report? I am using Portal 9.0.2.2.14.
    TIA,
    Dan

    Hi,
    This is due to webcache. You can solve this problem by calling the page url with an extra parameter. That way the page would get invalidated.
    Say the page url is
    http://domain/portal/page_pageid=33,32951&_dad=portaldad&_schema=portalschema
    then you should call the page like this
    http://domain/portal/page_pageid=33,32951&_dad=portaldad&_schema=portalschema&1=2
    This just adds a dummy parameter at the end and hence invalidates the cache.
    Thanks,

  • Apex 4.2 dynamic action to refresh a report region on a different page

    Hi,
    I open up a pop up window from a report region. When the user is done in the pop-up window and closes it, can I trigger a refresh on the report region using dynamic actions without actually reloading the whole page? I know I can use dynamic action on a page to refresh the report region on the same page.
    Thanks,
    Sinan

    Sinan,
    So long as the region to be refreshed is still loaded, you can do this. I don't know how you are loading your pop-up or unloading it but, the principle should be the same as what I provide below.
    Assume that you have set the static ID for your report to MY_REPORT. (Be sure you have checked "Allow Partial Page Refresh" in the Report Attributes).
    $('#confirmBox').find('div#userConfirmationMessage').html( '<span class="userInputRequest">Would you to Refresh your Report?</span>' );
    $('#confirmBox').dialog(
        autoOpen: true,
        modal: true,
        title: 'Refresh Conformation',
        buttons:
            'No': function ()
                $(this).dialog('close');
            'Yes': function ()
                $(this).dialog('close');
                 $('#MY_REPORT').trigger('apexrefresh');

  • $a_report to refresh a report but it is not picking up the bind variable

    Hi
    APEX          -     Application Express 4.1.0
    Browsers     -     All
    Database     -     11g2
    I have a tree region on a page. When a user clicks a leaf of the tree I want to be able to use the ID to refresh a report in a different region on the same page
    Code for when the user clicks the leaf
    $('div.tree li a').click( function() {
    node_id = $(this).parents('li:first').attr('id');
    if (node_id.substr(0,node_id.indexOf('|')) == 'Y')
    $s('P4_SELECTED_VALUE',node_id.substr(node_id.indexOf('|')+1));
    alert('Value Set: ' + $v('P4_SELECTED_VALUE'));
    //$a_report('28576803999973770','1','20','20');
    $a_report($v('P4_REPORT_ID'),'1','20','20');
    SQL Statement
    SELECT *
    FROM PRODS p WHERE PROD_CODE = :P4_SELECTED_VALUE
    The problem I have is that when the report is run (I know it is refreshing) the P4_SELECTED_VALUE bind variable is set to NULL.
    The alert pop contains the correct value and when I make the P4_SELECTED_VALUE visible it also contains the value?
    Any help is much appreciated
    Rob

    Rob,
    You need to insert P4_SELECTED_VALUE value into APEX session before refreshing the report.
    Add following JS function in your page
    //insert value into session using JS
    function fnSetSessionState(pItem, pValue) {
        var vAjaxDummy = new htmldb_Get(null, $v('pFlowId'), null, 0);
        vAjaxDummy.add(pItem, pValue);
        var vDummy = vAjaxDummy.get();
        vAjaxDummy = null;
    }and your code..
    $('div.tree li a').click( function() {
    node_id = $(this).parents('li:first').attr('id');
    if (node_id.substr(0,node_id.indexOf('|')) == 'Y')
    $s('P4_SELECTED_VALUE',node_id.substr(node_id.indexOf('|')+1));
    alert('Value Set: ' + $v('P4_SELECTED_VALUE'));
    fnSetSessionState('P4_SELECTED_VALUE',$v('P4_SELECTED_VALUE'));
    //$a_report('28576803999973770','1','20','20');
    $a_report($v('P4_REPORT_ID'),'1','20','20');
    });This is how I used to do in version 3.2 or before. But now I prefer to use Declarative dynamic actions..

  • USER UNABLE TO REFRESH DISCOVERER REPORT IN DISCOVERER DESKTOP 10g

    Dear All,
    HELP!!!
    A new user is unable to refresh discoverer Reports in Desktop. All priviledges have been granted to username in Disco Admin and Usre is able to log into oracle Apps.
    On the PC the user logged into someone else can log into Discoverer Desktop and run/refresh discoverer reports without any issues. Hence Ithink neither the PC nor the Discoverer installation is the problem.
    Can anyone help? What setup/profile needs to be completed in order for the user to be able to run Disco reports.
    Pls note that the following has been completed:
    1. Business Areas Assigned to user and his responsibilities.
    2. Desktop/Plus Privileges assigned.
    3. Allow administration - DISABLED - NOT TICKED
    Many thx
    DI

    Does this person just need to run reports? Or does this person also need to create reports? If the person just needs to run reports, try using Viewer for that person, rather than Desktop. This may be something that you need to log a service request with Oracle to get resolved. Pretty strange that can bring items into a new worksheet, but it won't run. Maybe there is an Oracle applications security issue (since logging in as another person does work)? You may be beating your brains out trying to find a Discoverer problem when it might be an application security problem. Though this is a wild guess on my part.

  • Unable to refresh a report in P21 Activant

    We recently upgraded our Activant P21 (Prophet 21) software which includes Crystal Reports.  Standard P21 canned reports in their software can be viewed, exported and printed.  The P21 software includes a feature to create and link custom reports.  We create the custom reports with Crystal Reports 2008 and set up the external report links.  We can open, view, print and export the custom reports but when we refresh the report with or without an input parameters, we are prompted for a "Database Login" password.  When we enter our password, an error message titled "Crystal Report Windows Forms Viewer"  states "Logon Failed. Please try again".  We have contacted Activant about this issue and they do not find any errors in the set up.  They have told us there is probably an issue with Crystal Reports and asked us to contact your company.  We have also contacted a friendly competitor who uses the same Activant P21 software and create custom reports with Crystal Reports 2008 which include user input parameters.  Their custom reports work without a glitch.  What would prevent us from refreshing a custom Crystal report?

    Hi Don,
    Activant P21 is insisting our issue is a Crystal problem.  We are unable to refresh the reports inside their software.  We have tried every user id and password we know and it still will not refresh our CR report. 
    When we use CR2008 to refresh a report, a window opens titled "OLE DB (ADO)" and asks to choose a data source "ODBC Data Source....Choose a data source from the list"  We select our ODBC DSN: P21 Live and click next.  Another window opens titled "OLD DB (ADO) asking for a password "Connection Information...Provide necessary information to log on to the chosen data source." At this point it does not matter what "User ID" or "Password" we use, the report will refresh.  We have used the Adminstrator with a password, we used my user name and password and we used the administrator without a password and in all three instances, the report refreshed with the correct data.
    I don't see how this is a Crystal problem unless there is something I am missing.  Any help you can provide will be deeply appreciated.

  • Error occured while refreshing webi report in bi system

    Dear Experts ,
    please look into my problem
    While refreshing WebI report in BIDEV system, we are getting the following error. The problem occurs only while refreshing the report.
    ERROR: a database error occured. the database error text is unable to connect to sap bw server incomplete logon data.. (wis10901)
    Regards

    HI ayur
    In the universe connection if the username and password is hardcoded then make sure those username and passwords are correct.
    else
    Make sure you are in the right BOX, for example if Universe is pointed to Prod, and you execute the report associated with that universe  in the Dev, then  that error will show up. So in universe connection find out to what BOX(dev, test, prod) it is pointed to and login to webI in the same BOX as universe pointed to and execute the report.
    It should work, if not please let us know.

  • While Refresh the report in webi i got database error.

    Hi Mallikarujun,
    Try selecting the values using show values for particular column in Universe.
    If that is fine and you are using SQL Server then the query is returning more that 2147483647 which is the limit for the return count by SQL Server (4 Bytes).
    There may be issue in join condition, if not try applying filter in query

  • Error when refreshing WEBI report with Universe Connection Type "SSO"

    Hi Experts:
    We are trying to refresh the Webi report in Infoview with Universe Connection set as "Use Single Sign On when refreshing the report at view time", so that we can leverage SAP OLAP authorization variable from Bex Query which the Universe is built on.
    However got the error of "incomplete logon data" after all the configurations done following below blogs:
    SNC Part 1
    /people/ingo.hilgefort/blog/2009/07/03/businessobjects-enterprise-and-client-side-snc-part-1-of-2
    SNC Part 2
    /people/ingo.hilgefort/blog/2009/07/03/businessobjects-enterprise-and-client-side-snc-part-2-of-2
    We already have Win AD SSO to SAP setup, and in BO CMC, Win AD user is mapped to SAP user ID.
    The SNC settings are:
    - AD Account: service.test.bobj (all lower-letters)
    - 32-bit gsslib on the BO server, and 64 bit on the BW server side.
    - SNC0: p:service.test.bobj at DOMAIN
    - SU01 --> BO_Service ; SNC: p:service.test.bobj at DOMAIN
    - Entitlement system tab --> username: BO_Service

    - SNC settings tab:
    SNC Lib: c:\winnt\gsskrb5.dll
    Mutual Authentication settings: p:SAPServiceBP0 at DOMAIN
    In CMC, the role can be imported if "RFC activated" option unchecked in SNC0.
    I found a few threads on the same topic, but they are all not answered:
    SNC Client side configuration error
    SNC Configuration Error: Incomplete logon Data
    Can you please provide details of the solution if you have impleted a same scenario successsfully, or any thoughts to help the investigation?
    Thanks in advance!
    Regards,
    Jonathan

    Hi Ingo,
    Sorry for taking so long to reply, we are trying to set up server side trust and enable SSO; but we still couldn't success.
    What we did is:
    1. We followed installation guide chapter 6, generate certificate and PSE, etc. All looks good.
    2. Then we still have the "incomplete logon data" error when refreshing webi report after logon using Windows AD user ID.
    3. Then we trace the PFC connection, the log is as below. We checked several BO notes, e.g. 1500150, 1461247.. The part bothers us is that we even don't have URI displayed in the log when system trying to use SNC, and we couldn't get more info on this which make us very difficult to diagnosis.
    Can you please help? Thanks a lot!

  • Getting "Could not Import Universe" error while trying to refresh a Report

    Hi,
    When we are trying to refresh a report in ZABO in production environment, we are getting an error "Could not import universe".
    We are able to import all other universes and refresh all other reports thru ZABO.
    Even these reports that are dependent on this universe are getting refreshed in Infoview and Full client. We are continuously facing this issue in ZABO.
    We tried the following steps but it did not fix the problem.
    1) Go to Tools -> Universes; Select the Universe to be imported and click on "Import" - Result: An error stating "Cannot find Universe".
    Click on "Refresh" button and then on "Import" again.
    Still the same error " Cannot find Universe"
    2) Click on "Data manager" after opening the report. Go to 'Definition' tab -> click on "..." - Result: "Cannot find Universe" error.
    3) Go to C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Application Data\Business Objects\Business Objects 6.0\lsi\
    Take a backup of .rkey and .lsi files of our gateway server and delete them from that location.Then relogin Infoview and ZABO.
    4)Go to Internet Options -> Temporary File Settings -> View Objects.
    Delete RptViewerAX class and ZaboCheckandRunControl class and relogin infoview and ZABO.
    5) Tried creating a new Document based on that Universe.
    6)Publish the universe with a different name and try creating a report based on that.
    None of these trials worked out. Please help us to fix this issue.
    Note: Our Production environment is reverse proxy enabled that has a time out set to 15 mins at webintelligence level. The Error is being observed with in 2 mins from the refresh process started.
    Regards
    Chaitanya

    Hi,
    Go to CMC, and check the path in file store where this Universe is stored.
    Follow this path and check if this universe is present there.
    If you have a local copy, you could open and export this by changing the name and try re-pointint one of the reports.
    If it works, you could delete the original and rename it to the original Universe.

    Jayendra.

  • Refresh SQL Report (Submit Page Item)

    I want to add a search field in a SQL Report. I have something like this
    SELECT * FROM emp
    WHERE  emp_no  LIKE  :P1_SEARCH || '%'I want to do the search asynchronous, on keypress. The problem is that a SQL Report doesn't have a "Submit Items:" atribute like a interactive report.
    So after i refresh the report:
    $a_report($x('P1_REPORT_ID').value,'1','10','100');The report is refreshing (the circle icon on top of the screen) but nothing changes cause the :P1_SEARCH doesn't submits.
    How could i submit a page item from JS ?
    King Regards,
    Cearnau Dan
    PS: I'm using APEX 4 and using dynamic actions it's the same like the Javascript call.(still doesn't submits the :P1_SEARCH item)

    Hi Dan,
    I would suggest not to use the undocumented
    $a_report($x('P1_REPORT_ID').value,'1','10','100');It's very likely that it will be changed in APEX 4.1
