Freeze panes for SQL report in APEX

Hi,
The right solution for this problem was, I resized the report region:
Edit Region->Attributes->Region Attributes->style="width:400px"
This resolved the issue.
Thanks for all your suggestions.

Create Simple Printable SQL Reports in APEX 3.2 Without a Print Server

Oracle Apex 3.2
Oracle 11g
OHS
I thought I'd post an answer on how to get a printable SQL report in Oracle Apex without having to configure a print server. I'm sure that similar things have been posted in various other places, but I found the documentation for using custom row templates (to create a printable report) to be incomplete at best. For my needs, I was not looking for an awe inspiring report printout, but rather simple directory information printouts. For example, if you wanted a printable report to look like this:
=================================
CURRENT ACTIVE EMPLOYEES REPORT
=================================
First Name: Bob                  Employee ID: 0000000000
Last Name: Swarts              Company Credit Card Number: 0000-0000-0000-0000
Middle Initial: F                  Social Security Number: 000-00-0000
First Name: Sue                  Employee ID: 1111111111
Last Name: Johnson           Company Credit Card Number: 1111-1111-1111-1111
Middle Initial: G                 Social Security Number: 111-11-1111
etc.....In MS Access, doing this is very easy. From what I understand, this is also very easy to do this using PDF software with a print server. However, if you are like me, you don't want to waste time and money by obtaining and configuring a print server (even if it is free). However, never fear because you can create simple reports like this with relatively minimalistic effort; and you can do so without having to configure a print server.
1.) Create a new page
2.) Create a new sql query report region on the page
3.) Make your query just as you would normally.
For this example the query would be:
select first_name, employee_id, last_name, company_credit_card_number, middle_initial, social_security_number from employee_table4.) Go to "Shared Components"
5.) Under "User Interface" click on "Templates"
6.) Click on the "Create" button
7.) Select "Report"
8.) Select "From Scratch"
9.) For the "Template Class," choose one of the "custom" classes. For the "Template Type," choose "Named Column"
10.) Click the "Create" button
11.) Now that you created a custom row template, go back to "Shared Components" and then to "Templates"
12.) Find your custom template and click on it
CUSTOM TEMPLATE HOW TO
1.) In the "Row Template 1" textbox, you are going to create some custom css that will display the data on the page. The css to make the report look like the report above would be:
<div style = text-align: justify">
<table>
<tr>
<td style = "width: 200px"><b>First Name: #1#</b></td>
<td style = "width: 225px">&nbsp</td>
<td style = "width: 215px"><b>Employee Id: #2#</b></td>
<tr>
<td style = "width: 200px">Last Name: #3#</td>
<td style = "width: 225px">&nbsp</td>
<td style = "width: 215px">Company Credit Card Number: #4#</td>
<tr>
<td style = "width: 200px">MI: #5#</td>
<td style = "width: 225px">&nbsp</td>
<td style = "width: 215px">Social Security Number: <b>#6#</b></td>
</tr>
</table>
<p style = "page-break-after: always">----------------------------------------------------------------</p>
</div>
{code}
As you probably figured out, the numbers between the two pound signs ("#") are substitution strings for the variables in your select query in the SQL report. As you have also probably noticed, the "page-break-after: always" line will always make it so that only one report is shown on a page. To fix this, we will need to use logic and row template 2.
2.) For the "Row Template 1 Condition," select "Use Based on PL/SQL Expression" from the select list.
3.) In the textbox for the row template 1 expression enter in the following: {code}substr('#rownum#',-1) = 0 or substr('#rownum#',-1) = 5{code}
***** This condition will make sure that this template is applied when the last digit in the row number is either a "0" or a "5." So, only 5 reports will be displayed per page.
4.) Now go down to "Row Template 2" and enter in the following in the textbox:
{code}
<div style = text-align: justify">
<table>
<tr>
<td style = "width: 200px"><b>First Name: #1#</b></td>
<td style = "width: 225px">&nbsp</td>
<td style = "width: 215px"><b>Employee Id: #2#</b></td>
<tr>
<td style = "width: 200px">Last Name: #3#</td>
<td style = "width: 225px">&nbsp</td>
<td style = "width: 215px">Company Credit Card Number: #4#</td>
<tr>
<td style = "width: 200px">MI: #5#</td>
<td style = "width: 225px">&nbsp</td>
<td style = "width: 215px">Social Security Number: <b>#6#</b></td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>----------------------------------------------------------------</p>
</div>look familiar? that is because it exactly the same code as above, except without the page-break-after piece.
5.) For the "Row Template 2 Condition," select "Use Based on PL/SQL Expression" from the select list.
6.) In the textbox for the row template 2 expression enter in the following: substr('#rownum#',-1) != 0 or substr('#rownum#',-1) != 5***** This condition will make sure that this template is applied when the last digit in the row number IS NOT a "0" or a "5."
7.) Scroll down to column headings and enter this in the textbox for the "Column Heading Template": OMIT
8.) Click the "Apply Changes" button
9.) Now go back to your application and the page you want to apply the custom report to
10.) On the report, click on the report tab
11.) Scroll down to "Layout and Pagination"
12.) Click on the "Report Template" select list
13.) Select your custom template
14.) Click the "Apply Changes" button and run the page
Try printing the report, if it does not print correctly, try it in Opera, Safari, Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Google Chrome. Please note that it is my understanding that only Firefox does not understand the css "page-break-after: always"
If needed, add some css to the page to hide tabs and other items when you print.

DOH. Too much copy/paste.
In my code, I was setting an application variable to contain the email address I was retrieving from AD. Once commented out, it worked fine.
          IF l_attr_name = 'mail' THEN
             APEX_UTIL.SET_SESSION_STATE('F111_USER_EMAIL',l_vals(i));
          END IF;

FQDN or NetBIOS for SQL Reporting Services Point installation in a cluster

Hi Folks
We have a SQL cluster for config mgr database & SQL reporting services installed on nodes because it is not cluster aware. During SCCM 2012 installation, we mentioned the details of SQL cluster only & it got installed successfully. When we checked
in console, it is showing 3 site servers related to SQL. SQL cluster is having site system role only & site database role moved under 2 nodes. Only NetBIOS names of the SQL nodes are being displayed in console.
Now when I installed reporting service point role by selecting one of the node, wizard picks the FQDN of this node automatically & role installed successfully.
Now in the console, I have another site server listed publishing the FQDN of the same node which I selected during installation which means one SQL node (site database role present at this) is displaying with NetBIOS name & the same SQL node
(reporting services point role at this) is displaying with FQDN.
My concerns is that -
Is there any issue if same SQL node displaying 2 times in SCCM console i.e. with NetBIOS name & with FQDN name?
Why reporting services point role not placed under the node which is already there with NetBIOS name?
I hope I explained my issue properly however If you guys need any more information regarding this, then let me know.
Cheers | Navdeep Sidhu

This is the default behavior when installing site DB on cluster - all nodes will be visible as NetBIOS.
I face a problem in two separate environments with SQL cluster when configuring Auto client push for servers, you will get the following error message in CCM.log in site server:
SQL Server Native Client 11.0][SQL Server]Invalid length parameter passed to the LEFT or SUBSTRING function. : sp_CP_CheckNewAssignedMachine
AND
Failed to execute SQL cmd exec [sp_CP_CheckNewAssignedMachine]
I believe this is a bug in the product.
There is a workaround FIX editing the SP in SQL DB but it is UNSUPPORTED.

Using Azure internal load balancer (ILB) for Sql Reporting Services

I am attempting to implement a scale-out SSRS deployment using the Azure ILB feature. I have created 2 Sql Reporting servers using the azure images and have created a ILB endpoint on both servers. I am then attempting to access the servers via the
ILB from my .Net web application. I can access the report server from my browser and am prompted for credentials using forms authentication. there is no issue accessing the reports from a browser however my web application cannot access the reports
and returns a 500 error. I have a hunch this is due to an authentication issue due to invalid kerberos proxy authentication.
Does anyone have any information regarding the possible authentication mechanisms that are supported using Azure ILB?

Thanks for the response Swallow0417, but as I stated I already had configured this to work in a browser. I should have mentioned that I already had set the machine key and altered the rsreportserver.config file as mentioned in
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc281307.aspx.
It turns out this was due to the extended data validation that was introduced in SQL 2014.
This page led me to alter rsreportserver.config so that:
<RSWindowsExtendedProtectionLevel>Off</RSWindowsExtendedProtectionLevel>
<RSWindowsExtendedProtectionScenario>Any</RSWindowsExtendedProtectionScenario>
After restarting the report server service my application now can make the requests for the reports successfully. I'll provide the other steps I took to hopefully help someone else in the future:
1. Create 2 or more SQL servers in an Azure availability group on the same service in a Reports server scale out deployment. The SSRS Service account must be a domain account or it will not work
2. Create an Azure ILB using powershell and add the endpoints on your http(s) ports on the server in step 1. I also set the endpoint IdleTimeoutInMinutes to 30 on both endpoints as it seemed like there was some possible timeout issues. the endpoint MUST
also have DirectServerReturn Set to $true
3. disable the loopbackcheck see method 2 here
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896861
create a DWORD registry key value 1,
DisableLoopbackCheck,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
4. Configure View state validation by setting an identical machine key on all servers behind the azure ILB
5. Create a Host record in your AD DNS for the Azure ILB IP Address.
6. configure hostname
and URLRoot in rsreportserver.config - see
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc281307.aspx
Setting the hostname tag breaks the report manager url. It is only
required to set the URLRoot tag. I do not think it is required in this configurtaion only for Windows
NLB
6. Configure the authentication method in rsreportserver.conig
<RSWindowsExtendedProtectionLevel>Off</RSWindowsExtendedProtectionLevel>
<RSWindowsExtendedProtectionScenario>Any</RSWindowsExtendedProtectionScenario>

Resizing the SQL report in APEX

Hi,
I am using SQL Report, it has just 2 columns and three buttons.
But the report size width is full, extends fulls screen.
I am using Theme 9, Underlined
Template: Reports Region Alternative 1
I verified another application which I have done some months back, a report there has the same settings, but the display is perfect, it just occupies 40% of the screen, unlike the current report which is 100% wide :-|
Please let me know what changes can be done.

Hi,
The right solution for this problem was, I resized the report region:
Edit Region->Attributes->Region Attributes->style="width:400px"
This resolved the issue.
Thanks for all your suggestions.

Data Collector Reports not available for SQL Reporting Services only SSMS

I never understood this one, why would you program Reporting Services (SSRS) reports inside SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS)?
The reports are available only through the SSMS interface, buried somewhere in the GUI, not easy to find.
Please make the MDW reports available on Reporting Services!

Hello,
These are not SSRS reports, these are RDLC reports for local rendering in a client application like SSMS; similar, but not the same. The reports are embedded as a resource in an assembly, that's
the reason why you can't find them.
You can have a SQL Server installation without Reporting Services; where should be the reports hosted then, if not in SSMS?
You can create your own SSRS based report; simply use SQL Profiler to capture the queries used by the origin reports.

DATE FORMAT Conversion FOR SQL Reports

Hi,
Am building a report and am stuck here where this piece of code that throws the following error
The conversion of a varchar data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range value.
My query goes some thing like this
DECLARE @StartDate varchar(15),
@EndDate Varchar(15)
SELECT @StartDate = '01/08/2014',
@EndDate = '31/08/2014'
SELECT DISTINCT
[Operation] = CASE WHEN p.DATE_OF_START BETWEEN @StartDate AND @EndDate THEN 'Add'
ELSE 'Update' END
FROM SNZ_HR_Reporting_POSMGNT as s
LEFT OUTER JOIN PERSON as p on s.EMP_NO = p.EMP_NO
WHERE s.CHANGE_DATE BETWEEN @StartDate AND @EndDate
The date format in the column DATE_OF_START is like yyyy-mm-dd 00.00.00.000 .
My question is how to convert this format to dd/mm/yyyy format and execute the queries
Many Thanks,
Bhanu

How apex generate LOV values for Interactive report

Scott,
For interactive report, does APEX full table/index scan to generate the LOV drop down list every time user click the column header? If I set max row count to 100, does LOV values only derived from the first 100 rows that apex hits?
If I enter SQL query in "list of value definition", will that sql get executed every time users click the column header or the result is cached?
For standard and interactive report, does APEX parse (soft/hard) the sql statement again when user do pagination?

Hi N.Raj,
{thread:id=2245456}
Yes you have to Configure BI Publisher or other.

Refresh SQL Report Apex 4

Hello everyone,
On one of my pages i have 2 reports. An interactive Report and a SQL Report.(APEX 4.0)
I don't know why Apex doesn't support 2 Interactive Reports on the same page.
I need to refresh this reports on certain moments.Using a Dynamic Action i managed to refresh the Interactive Report, but not the SQL Report.
I notice that in the SQL Report i have no "Enable Partial Page Refresh" checkbox...Is there any way to refresh a SQL Report via Dynamic Actions ?
Thank you!
Kind Regards,
Cearnau Dan

Hi Cearnau,
Try this:
Report Footer:
<script type="text/javascript">
    // Set report id
    $s('P1_REPORT_ID','#REGION_STATIC_ID#'.substr(1));
    // old version
    // $x('P1_REPORT_ID').value = '#REGION_STATIC_ID#'.substr(1);
</script>
HTML Header:
<script type="text/javascript">
function fnc_updateReport(){
    // Report refresh
   $a_report($x('P1_REPORT_ID').value,'1','10','100');
</script>Of course updating the Report with a dynamic action would work as well! :)

SQL Report not showing data - available in SQL Workshop and SQL Developer

I am having an issue with developing a SQL Report in APEX 3.2.1. I run the code in both SQL developer and SQL Workshop and I get data pulled back (both against my development environment). When I run the same code in a SQL Report region, it returns no data available. Does anyone have any idea what would be causing this? Other regions on the page accessing different tables in the same schema return data without issue. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Freddie

Could you explain the last comment a bit more. Here is a bit more info just in case I touch on the info with it. The db schema is BPAMGR, the Workspace is BPAMGR. We use the same schema for all of our reporting. All of our tables are in the same schema. We don't use any tables outside of this schema. Our APEX workspace has been associated to only this schema. The tables are able to be queried by SQL Workshop in the same APEX instance that the report application is under.

Tabular form validation(Checkbox) is not working for Interactive report

Hi,
I am using the oracle apex 4.0 and oracle 11g.
I have written a below select query on interactive report as
select
apex_item.checkbox(1,RESIDD)||apex_item.hidden(2,RESIDD) row_selector,
apex_item.text(3,RESNUM) as resnum
from "PDRRES"
and written the validation to display the error message( Function returning error text ) as
DECLARE
vRow BINARY_INTEGER;
BEGIN
-- apex_application.g_print_success_message := NULL;
FOR i IN 1 .. apex_application.g_f01.COUNT
LOOP
vRow := apex_application.g_f01(i);
apex_application.g_print_success_message := apex_application.g_f01(i)||'-'|| apex_application.g_f03(vRow) ;
END LOOP;
END;
Output : No data found error message
As far as it work for sql report with above logic because apex built in row selector
but it fails in case of interactive report for some reason.
Please suggest.

Please suggest.NO DATA FOUND usually occurs when an i mplicit select does not find anything. It can also occur when referencing a collection element that has not been defined.
You have 2 collectinons in the code you posted, apex_application.g_f01() and apex_applciation.g_f03. Since you are looping therough the COUNT attribute of g_f01 its reference ("I") is probably okay and the value store in vRow is probably not right. You can check this by using RAISE_APPLICTION_ERROR to see the value something like
raise_application_error(-20000,'vRow="'||vRo2||'"');Remember that working with checkboxes is tricky. If the box is not checked nothing will be sent. You may need to define a default value when no value is submitted.

Loop Through Rows in SQL Report.

Hello Everyone,
I've been creating a very different application, and I've run into quite the roadblock.
Let me give you a breif about the problem.
I have a form that needs to be dynamic and thus is created at runtime.
I have used the APEX_ITEM and a SQL SELECT CASE to create a dynamic report.
For example if the DATATYPE column in my table says DATE, I create an APEX_ITEM.DATE_POPUP, if it says CHAR i create a textbox, and if a column called
LOV is populated APEX_ITEM.SELECT_LIST_FROM_QUERY using the number value of the LOV to query a List of Values from another table.
Now this brings me to say in a single column of the there could be different data_types. meaning the multi-row update functionality with apex will not work.
Getting the data to display is easy. However saving the updates is a different story.
Which brings me to my question. Does anybody know of way in which you can loop through each row in a SQL Report on APEX and assess each row individually.
I'd like to accomplish something like this
LOOP
MyUpdateProcedure(currentrow_id,currentrow_datatype, currentrow_value)
Go to Next Row in Report
END LOOP;
Pretty simple in theory? Do we have an APEX expert out there who could give me a hand with this?

Codes,
It sounds to me like you could add a hidden field to tell you what you need to know in order to determine the column to update.
Assuming it was created using the parameter p_idx = 50 and contained the names you provided (eg DATA_DATA) and your primary key is created using p_idx = 1 then you could add the logic for the update into an on submit process something like so
FOR i IN 1 .. apex_application.g_f01.COUNT
LOOP
CASE apex_application.g_f50(i)
WHEN 'DATA_DATA' THEN
-- run the update against the data column
WHEN 'CHAR_DATA' THEN
-- run the update against the char column
etc.
If the multi-type column is created with the apex_item api using p_idx = 2 then you just refer to it in the loop as apex_application.g_f02(i) and the primary key is apex_application.g_f01(i).
I hope this helps.
