Formatting a Report in Portal

I am trying to format a ROW in a report based on a date column. If the value in this date column is the current sysdate then I want the entire row to be BLUE. How do I enter the sysdate value in the column? I tried %SYSDATE%, SYSDATE AND #SYSDATE, none of which work with '=' or 'like'! I get an datatype error message.

hello,
I have a similar problem. actually i have a calendar and wanted the current date highlighted or in a different color. so even i was wondering what i should give in the formatting column. It only takes a numeric input. Did u figure this out ? is there any workaround. Thanks,
Ganti.

6i registered Reports won't show In .PDF format, when runing in Portal

We are registering the reports into an Oracle Portal Content Area. We have been successful in doing so, except for when we attempt to get the report in .pdf format.
When we set .pdf as the format we wish to get the report in, the Adobe program
seems to start up within the browser, but then there is just a blank screen, and nothing ever gets returned.
We would like for all of our reports to run through Portal in .pdf format (as
it's easier for our end-users to print).
1. Is there any way to get this working?
2. Is there some configuration we need to setup on the Reports Server, Portal Server, or in the .rdf of each report?
Please advise.
Thanks!

Hi,
Something to check is that the Font Family Name in the Font Administration when you create the font in XMLP, MUST BE exactly the same as the name of the font when it is selected in MS Word. If it is not, then XMLP will not know what font to pick up.
Please check that this is correct in your situation.
Kind Regards,

XSTRING with Binary of PDF - display R3 report in portal

Hello,
We have a requirement to show an R/3 report on portal as PDF. User will then be able to Print/Save the same.
I have browsed through different posts on SDN and
The idea I have is:
1. Print the report to spool (Backend).
2. Convert the spool to pdf (Backend).
3. Create a FM (in the backend) that exports an xstring with the binary of the pdf (of the report)
4. Using webdynpro for Java, create pdf form based on binary xstring.
5. Render the pdf to portal and display it in portal.
I have a couple of questions regarding this approach:
1. What exactly does the function module needs to export (what format and type should be used)?
2. How should the data being sent from the backend be handled in the Webdynpro Code? (What Context attribute should be created and what type should be used?)
Please share your experience if some one had developed a similar application. Any sample code would be really appreciated.
Thanks for Reading the post and for your time.
Regards,
Raj

Hi Raj,
Thanks for the link, i followed the procedure the way it mentioned in the link, but i am getting the below error as nullpointer exception, i checked everything but still i am getting the error.
i can see one thing in webdynpro java code , i am getting warning message for this " wdwebresource"
as deprecaiated, what is this meant?
thanks,
vinay

Import Crystal Report to Portal

I'm investigating the possibility of displaying crystal reports in Portal iViews. Those crystal reports will be reading off BW and R/3 data sources. I've run into different questions and they are:
1) Should I save the crystal reports in BW repository or should I activate them and move them to Crystal Enterprise (i.e. which option is better? or do I not have a choice?).
2) Where should the authorization be handled? My guess is at the portal, am I right?
3) How to get crystal report format (especially font and background colors) to change with the portal style, if the user change it at run time.
4) and finally, has anyone gone through this before? if so, is there any resources or manual on the subject? please help.

I have done this using the iview template that is in the "migrated ep5 content" folder. I am just using EP6 SP2. With SP4 (and maybe SP3?) there is a template.
1. I think the report needs to be saved in BW. It needs to be "published" as well. (See the BW documentation.)
2. I think the authorization needs to be done in the BW. The reports are assigned to a role. The role is assigned to a BW user. We are using SAPLOGONTICKETS, so the BW user id has a matching id in the portal. The passwords do not need to match. (Don't forget to export the portal cerificate and import it into BW.) That is if you want SSO to work.
3. Not sure about this one. I thought EP6 had something called "rendered iviews", but I can't find it. This is supposed to alter the look of a url iview to match the poral look. (I believe that a crystal report iview is basically just a url iview. It just calls a url http://crystal server/viewreport.csp(or jsp)?id=9999...etc).
4. Feel free to email me at [email protected]
You could just use a URL iview if you know the url of the report. The params are just filled out in the parameters of the iview wizard.
The BIG hurdle I had to get through was the creation of the system(and alias) for the server where crystal is. The system properties for Crystal are missing from EP6 until you get to SP4 or SP3. I had to copy the par for the SAP system and add new properties for Crystal ENterprise. (seerver, path, and protocol.)

Error while attaching document to report on Portal - Invalid selection valu

Hello All,
We are running our reports on Portal and as per the business requirement the users have to create comments or attach documents to certain amounts in certain columns and once they create the comment a document icon shows up near that amount (for example there are 3 columns Budget, actual, balance then the user have to create comment for some amounts which needs explanation) they do that from context menu Documents -> Create new Comment.
Now we want those documents to be saved on Infoprovider level and not on master data for any particular object. We have activated the flag "Characteristic is document property" on related infoobjects. We have the flag to display document icon on Infoprovider active in the web template. Now when I run the report I am able to create new comments on first two columns and when the report refreshes it shows me icon near that amount but it gives me errors on third column after the report refreshes itself. Now when I go in portal KM repository where documents are stored I do see the document that I created for the third column as well so looks like the document is getting created and being stored but the issue is when it tries to display the icon on that third column.
The error I get is this:
The initial exception that caused the request to fail was:
Invalid selection value: AttributeMember

Please give some inputs if anyone is facing same problem or is anyone has worked previously with this kinda of stuff.
Thanks in advance.

Hi!
Have you solved this problem? I have the same problem after a SPS implementation (SPS 17). The message appears when we select a single value in a DP (hierarchical filter item) that filters another one, but when I select a node it doesn't.
Before the patch implementation the apliccation worked ok.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance.

Running reports in Portal- URL vs RDF

I've got a content area in portal 3.0.8 which contains two items-- a URL link to my report, and an Application Component which is the same report registered in portal as an RDF. The report runs fine with the URL link, but hangs when I try to run the RDF component.
My URL link is defined as follows: http://greap004:7777/dev60cgi/rwcgi60?server=reportserver+report=reportname.rdf+destype=cache+desformat=htmlcss+userid=username/password@DBname+paramform=yes
However, the registered RDF does not prompt for a DB login or bring up the parameter form. It just hangs for about 5 minutes and then returns the following error:
Error: The requested URL was not found, or cannot be served at this time. Oracle Reports CGI - Report Job was cancelled upon user request.
I want to be able to register reports as RDF's rather than using URL links.

hello,
you should take a look at our whitepapers in the Internet Deployment and Security section of our product area http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports
there you find a walkthrough of the configuration for running registered reports in portal.
