Formula Columns in Data Template
Hi,
Is it posiible to have formula columns in data template apart from summary columns.please suggest.

You can put those formula-logic in sql query.
summation/avg functions can be used directly in element.

Syntax of formula column in data template
Hi All,
I am trying to generate XML output from Data Template. But I am struggling with how to implement formula column. I am using this syntax. But it is not working. Please anybody send me working formula column syntax.
<element name="PO_NUMBER" value="PO_NUMBER" />
<function name="CF_DUMMY" dataType="number" >
<textSource>
<! [CDATA [
function CF_DUMMY return number is
begin
return 3;
end;
]]>
</textSource>
</function>
</group>The call is done directly in the query.
In your Template header you can reference the database package to use this for example for triggers in your template:
<dataTemplate .... defaultPackage="myPackage" ...>
Then your Query looks like
<sqlStatement name="Q_2">
<![CDATA[select empno,ename,myPackage.cf_myformula(sal, comm) as Income from emp WHERE deptno=:abeilung]]>
</sqlStatement>
In your dataStructure Section you than can reference the formula like any other column
<element name="INCOME" dataType="number" value="INCOME"/>
Additionaly you can have triggers like before report trigger, where the logic is in the same database package:
<dataTrigger name="beforeReport" source="myPackage.beforeRepLogic"/>

Hi All,
I am unable to keep some formulas in xml data template.
My exact requirement:
I want to keep some formula columns in xml data template so that i can show them in rtf.
I have 6 columns
1. ename
2. dept
3. job
4. salary
5. salary deposited till current year ( this is a formula column)
6. total salary ( this is a formula column ==> salary * comm)
I am able to keep all the 4 columns and data is being displayed correctly. But i am not knowing where and how to keep the below columns *(i.e., 5 & 6)
Glad if anyone can provide me with some examples how to keep formula columns in xml data template
Thanksuser9092293,
when you mean "unable to keep column formulas" in data template!!! are you not able to refer to them within the data structure element?? or are you trying to calculate them in the group elements and not able to???
If you could explain further it might helps us visualize your issue....
thanks

How to implement place holder columns in data template
Hi,
I have a requirement where I have to mimic the functionality of place holder columns in RDF using Data Templates in XML Publisher.
How can I call a pl/sql function at element level when we try to group records in the data template.
To make it simple , let us say I have a requirement to retrieve the address of an employee(address line 1,address line 2, city,country)
In RDF what I do is define 4 place holder columns to capture address attributes, and in a formula column I set values to these attributes. How do I implement this in XML Publisher data template.
When I tried to implement the above requirement using test variables, I was able to execute a pl/sql function after the group tag, but not within the group tag.
I got the result for calc_values3 , but didn;t get anythng for calc_values1 and 2

/For this, you need to have a master query and child query.
1) In your master query you will have to identify one unique column and call a pl/sql pkg function which calculates all values for your place holder columns and inserts rows into a pl/sql table with the index as your unique column
ex: Master query returns
empnum name amount
1 scott 250
2 bob 350
and your calculated value is 10 percent of the amount
your pl/sql pkg should insert records into the pl/sql table like r(1):= 250*0.1 = 25 r(2):= 350*0.1 = 35
2) The child query will get executed for each row of you rmaster query, so you should be able to read the values based on which master records row it is executing for
Please bear in mind that you have to make sure that the report is not executed by two different people at the same time, else you have to consider session or any other unique identifier in addition to your master records unique identifier.

Formula Column in Report template
I have a report template to use in all the report. I want to have a formula column on it to take a control value(location/Organization) where the report is being printing. Is it possible to have a formula column in a report template? if it possible how can I do it? otherwise how can i achieve this task?
Thank in advance
Muza.What is the application release?
Can you find any details about the error in the OPP log file?
Please search MOS website for "Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet" and go through the docs.
Thanks,

Below is simple Example I tried and output doesnot look right.
Note: My Blob Database Column is "LOGO".
Sample Data Template:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="WINDOWS-1252"?>
<dataTemplate name="Employee_Listing" description="List of
Employees">
<dataQuery>
<sqlStatement name="Q1">
<![CDATA[SELECT EMPNO,ENAME,JOB,LOGO from
EMP]]>
</sqlStatement>
</dataQuery>
<dataStructure>
<group name="G_EMP" source="Q1">
<element name="EMPLOYEE_NUMBER" value="EMPNO" />
<element name="NAME" value="ENAME"/>
<element name="JOB" value="JOB" />
<element name="LOGO" value="LOGO" />
</group>
</dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>
Sample Ouput Created
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<EMPLOYEE_LISTING>
<LIST_G_EMP>
<G_EMP>
<EMPLOYEE_NUMBER>999</EMPLOYEE_NUMBER>
<NAME>PILLAI</NAME>
<JOB>MGR</JOB>
<LOGO/>
</G_EMP>
</LIST_G_EMP>
</EMPLOYEE_LISTING>
My Question is :
Does output should have only a TAG for Blob Column or it should have image data
which can be rendered through Template using fo:instream tags.
Am I hitting any bug which is preventing retrieving Blob data through XML data templateI need to get data out of a BLOB column from a table in an Oracle 8i database and into a file that I can put into a MS Word template. The data in the BLOB column came from a MS Word document. What is the best way to proceed? We have a LOB datatype sample which shows how to save a blob from the DB to a local file at http://otn.oracle.com/sample_code/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/files/advanced/advanced.htm
I'd save it to a temp file and then using word add it. You could also spawn wscript.exe to run a Windows VB Script to automate word from the java application.

How to add a formula column in a report
Hi
I have made a report based on a query.
There are 3 columns in the query and all the 3 are displayed.
Now I want to add a new column (fomula column) to the report.
I want to write a query inside the formula column. To execute the query col1, col2 and col3 values are required in the formula column.
Could you please tell me how to add a formula column in the report and how to pass database column value to inside the formula column
regardsHere is how you would create a formula column:
Open data model of the report.
Formula column button is on the left side of the tool palette.
Click on that button.
Now click in the query group where you want to place the formula column.
You would see a new field something like CF_1. That is the formula column.
Double click on the field CF_1. It will open property inspector.
You would see, Datatype of the formula column is Number. Change this as per your requirement.
Double click on PL/SQL Formula property. It would open up a editor. Here you can write the code.
And now to access the data model column here, you can use : and column name. i.e. :col1 or :col2, etc
And remember you have to return the value back to the formula column. Like this: RETURN(some value).
You can also take a help from here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B13895_01/orbr_howto.htm#sthref1309
Hope this helps. -
Formula column equivalent in Data Template
Hi all,
I'm working with my first data template and fumbling my way through. I was able to generate the XML output and apply my template. I have some idea on how to burst too, but I'm stuck on how to get the current user's email address. In Oracle Reports, I could just create a formula column and get any specific information needed. How do I do the same in Data Templates?
TIA,
AlkaHI,
Can I know How can we create the formula column like if then else logic in the Data template?

Applying order by for the data comming from the formula column
Dear Friends,
I am having a report in which some of the columns in which data is comming from the formula columns,but i need the data in asc order.
How can i do it.
Please advice.I am having a report in which some of the columns in
which data is coming from the formula columns,but i
need the data in asc order.Lets say you have this query:
select empno, sal, comm from emp
And you have empno, sal, comm and a formula column 'f_percentage' in one group. Add one dummy column in the query, like this:
select 'temp' temp, empno, sal, comm from emp
Move this 'temp' column into the second group (drag and drop outside the first group). You don't have to create repeating frame/or need to show this 'temp' column on the report.
Now if you use break order on formula column, that should work. Make sure you have break order on other columns also. Arrange items (change order) in data model as you needed. Run your report before and after this change and make sure you have same number of rows before and after this change.
(from reports builder's help)
"Break Order has no effect on columns that belong to the lowest group of a particular query. Break Order only affects columns in groups that are above the lowest child group of a query" -

Anyone have face the same problem..?? and how to fixed it..??
thanks.

Hence I used the BIP built in template function like this

but the sum() function is adding up all amounts as expexted,I want
the above newsum value as

Sum of Elements in Data Template
Dear Members,
I am developing a report using Oracle BI Publisher 10.1.3.
We are on E-Business Suite R12. I am using Data Template to Generate xml.
Following is my element structure in Data Template:
<dataTrigger name="afterParameterFormTrigger" source="XX_TEST_PKG.afterpform" />
<dataStructure>
<element name="P_REQUEST_ID" dataType="number" value="XX_TEST_PKG.P_REQUEST_ID" />
<group name="G_PRODUCT" source="Q_MAIN">
<element name="PROD_ITEM" dataType="varchar2" value="prod_item" />
<element name="PROD_DESCR" dataType="varchar2" value="prod_descr" />
<element name="PROD_ORGANIZATION_ID" dataType="number" value="prod_organization_id" />
<element name="PROD_ITEM_TYPE" dataType="varchar2" value="prod_item_type" />
<element name="prod_resources" dataType="number" value="prod_resources" />
<element name="CS_TOTAL_EXT_COST" function="sum" dataType="number" value="G_ING.EXT_COST" />
<element name="PERIOD_CODE" dataType="varchar2" value="period_code" />
<group name="G_ING" source="Q_MAIN">
<element name="LINE_NO" dataType="number" value="LINE_NO" />
<element name="LINE_TYPE" dataType="number" value="LINE_TYPE" />
<element name="ING_ITEM" dataType="varchar2" value="ING_ITEM" />
<element name="ING_ITEM_ID" dataType="number" value="ING_ITEM_ID" />
<element name="ING_DESCR" dataType="varchar2" value="ING_DESCR" />
<element name="ING_ORGANIZATION_ID" dataType="number" value="ING_ORGANIZATION_ID" />
<element name="QTY" dataType="number" value="QTY" />
<element name="ING_COST" dataType="number" value="ING_COST" />
<element name="EXT_COST" dataType="number" value="EXT_COST" />
</group>
</group>
</dataStructure>I want to sum elements by name CS_TOTAL_EXT_COST and prod_resources and put that value under G_PRODUCT.
I tried the following but it did not work:
<element name="SUM_TEST" dataType="number" value="XX_TEST_PKG.SUM_TESTING(:CS_TOTAL_EXT_COST,:prod_resources)" /> XX_TEST_PKG.SUM_TESTING is a function which sums the input parameters.
In report Builder this was very easy. I would have created a formula column and summed up what ever elements i want. I am not sure how do we do this in Data Template?
Thanks
SandeepAny Ideas on how to Achieve the Sum of a Summary Column(CS_TOTAL_EXT_COST) and a Column(prod_resources) using data template?
As i mentioned before in reports builder, this can be achieved by creating a formula column and summing both columns.
I am not able to understand how do we do this in Data Template?
I can also sum those elements in MSWord Rtf Template, but are there any other options.
Thanks

NEED ADVICE about Inserting a custom formula column in EXPANSION memberset
Dear all:
I am asked to create a report with TIME(col), ACCOUNT(col), PRODUCT(row), where ACCOUNT stores Beginning Inventory Amt, COS, etc.
The problem I am having is that the user requests to have a place to show COS ratio column. COS ratio value is derived from ACCOUNT COS and ACCOUNT NETSALES of my ACCOUNT MEMBERSET.
I tried various ways but was unable to keep the formula in EVDRE so this COS ratio column's formula goes with the rest of the expansion.
The result I want is something like below, where NETSALES and COS are my dimension members and RATIO is Excel formula STDCOST/COS... As the report expands by different TIME hierachy (i.e. 2008.total, 2008.h2, 2008.q3), RATIO is expanded accordingly.
Is this doable in EVDRE?
2008.10 2008.11 2008.12
NETSALES COS RATIO NETSALES COS RATIO NETSALES COS RATIO

You can create a hundred different evdre templates and still not know everything about evdre and its functionality keeps growing. Nothing beats experience here. Iu2019m not able/allowed to provide examples, perhaps one of your colleagues? Or another forum participant?
1) The online help is good and the Best Practice guide is also very good. I canu2019t send the evdre guide and it is not published by SAP. You can get the BPC for Office Useru2019s Guide;
Support Portal u2013 Release & Upgrade Info u2013 Install & Upgrade Guides u2013 SAP BPC u2013 (Select your BPC release)
Office User Guide
https://websmp101.sap-ag.de/instguidescpm-bpc
Grab the BPC 7 version as well, it has some better samples.
To fully capitalize on the fullness of evdre you also need an expert level knowledge of excel, (and I donu2019t mean lots of experience). Evdre is the combination of BPC functionality and excel working in union with each other. VBA is also important in very complex situations.
2&3) This is one approach. One of the nice features in evdre is the ability to insert excel formulas within a data range. You may need to adjust your row/col key range to address your needs.
There is nothing really wrong with using dimension logic. Itu2019s important to understand you will take a performance hit somewhere and you should test to determine if the performance hit is within an acceptable range. I have one client with a few hundred accounts with formulas and there application works great and the performance is not to terrible.
Also look at the following;
