Generate Reports Automatically From Report Server

Hi all,
Can anyone please give me some clues on how to generate reports automatically from report server? e.g. generate daily sales reports on everyday 11:00pm.
Thank you.

You can use scheduling feature of reports.
You need to give in cmd line
schedule=schedule_param
Refer in [     Publishing reports to web - 10G ] (see link below)
the command line param - "schedule"

Subject in Email is always "Report sent from Report Builder"

We run Forms 6.08 in C/S - architecture.
Forms calls reports:
ADD_PARAMETER(pl_id, 'SUBJECT',TEXT_PARAMETER, 'Please read appending pdf' );
add_Parameter(pl_id,'DESTYPE',TEXT_PARAMETER, 'Mail');
Run_Product(reports, 'MY_Report', SYNCHRONOUS, BATCH, Filesystem, pl_id);
This works: Lotus pops up and a Email is initialized with a pdf appended.
But the subject isn't filled in properly. There is always a constant text: "Report sent from Report Builder"
How can I control the subject?
Is it possible to fill in some text into the Email-body?
Wolfram

Please find my comments below :
1. Subject is coming properly in EN but for DE taking the subject from standard task , BASIC DATA tab, Abbrevatio or Name ...
which i am not able to rectify. i am not required to translate in DE , have to send email as it is in EN. but subject is only missing
and everything is working fine. Can you please suggest me here ?
Ans. Your problem here is not clear...Is this a Work Item or mail ?.. Is your subject missing with Work Item in DE ?...
2. For the (sent) From email address instead of email something like WF_USER , i have to display like below :
densapwfadmin
Ans. Are you using talking about Extended notification here?... or just about mail step in your workflow?...

ProjectUID selected from the reporting database from Project Server OnPublished event is taking some delay

Hi all,
I'm invoking a stored procedure from the reporting database from the project server onPublished event. I'm having some issues in getting the details of that particular project from the published event handler. This i noticed that there is some
delay is taking place in moving the data(project uid ) from the published to the reporting database .
My stored procedure select statement is as follows:
SELECT ProjectUID, ProjectName FROM MSP_EpmProject_UserView
　WHERE ProjectUID=value
This stored procedure is invoked from the onPublished event of the project server event handler where that particular projectuid is passed in that stored procedure.I have noticed that some delay is taking palce to move the data into the reporting database.
My stored procedure got invoked from the onPublished event of the project server event handler before the delay is complete. So the row selected from the stored procedure is alwys zero (0). Is there any other method to wait for repoting database
to get refreshed. Please help me .

Hi sabithad,
The issue you are facing is because of the conflict of permissions, event handlers always works through administrative user credentials whereas the project is open in edit mode by the logged-in user. And you are tyring to update custom field at the back
end with Administrative credentials, while project queue is in process by logged-in users credentials. Its not gonna work this way :)
The best option is to use Javascript on your PDP using CEWP, you can either build your complete logic in JavaScript and place that code on your PDP. OR you can use the combination of JavaScript and PSI and create a webpart to be placed on PDP.
below blog link willgive you directions to go ahead with, but for sure the solution to your query is
JavaScript :)

Why is printing report different from report builder and app server

I created a report and when ran from report builder it looks fine.
And when i moved the report to server and ran the report in the browser using this url
http://192.1.1.8:7778/reports/rwservlet?userid=esp/esp_dev1@wdev&report=FMMA_VOUCHER.rdf&destype=cache&desformat=pdf
and print it the report shrinks, the fonts become small and the margins change. I am having hard time how to figure out a way to correlate the formatting in the report builder and when i run on the server using pdf format.
Is there any way to set the server so that the pdf output matches with the report builder.
Thanks.
Sree

I assume you are doing a cross platform deployment

Copying report file from one server to another requires refresh database?

Hi,
I am using Crystal Reports 11 for development.
We have a number of crystal reports that are served on a web server running classic ASP that uses these reports with Embedded Crystal Server XI installed on the server.
When I am developing or modifying a .rpt file (report) I connect to a UAT/development database on a dedicated development server.
When I am happy with the report and testing is successful I copy and paste the report onto the production server, replacing the old report.
The problem is I don't have a user account and password on the production server. Our DBAs are the only one with passwords on the prod servers. If an application needs a password entered they come to my desk and enter it for me.
The problem is in order for the modified report to work on the production, I have to call up a DBA to "verify the database" for me by connecting to production server and entering username and password.
This is really annoying.
Why can't I just disconnect\log off server in crystal reports, then copy and paste the .rpt file to prod server and be done with it?
If I had dozens of reports to change, it seems very rigid that I have to ask a DBA to enter the user account and password used by the application to run the report.
Can someone please explain how to be able to copy and paste modified reports/ or new reports from one server to another without having this problem.
Thanks
Haggisns

Moving to the Legacy SDK forum.
Crystal can be magical sometimes but if you don't tell CR where the database is how is it to know you moved it?
As you have seen and for security reasons you can't simply "drop" a report on any server and expect it to just connect to a new DB server without being asked to enter in credentials or that you have changed the DB server to report off of.... If it's too much work for the DBA to set log on info then he should give you access to so can.
Thank you

Custom SSRS report dev from Lync Server 2013

Trying to replicate canned Lync 2013 User Activity Report, but with more filtering capability, using SSRS. Necessary to do this way because we're adding details like user name, department and location from our Active Directory.
Have been unable to ever find support on WHAT the query or stored proc IS behind the UA report. If I have that code I can incorporate that with our data.
Any help appreciated!
James Nelson

Hi,
Check whether the SBC support REFFER if not disable REFFER from Lync Server Trunk configuration.
Please check if the SBC is supported with the help of the link below:

CPU usage while generating text output from reports

hi
while we attempt to generate the text (delimited) output from reports and when the query fetches more than 1500 rows, the cpu usage stays around 100% for long time paralysing the operation...
we faced the problem when we attempted to generate text output for around 10000 records.
any suggestions?

You can burst with eText and I have done it
successfully.
I don't believe pagebreaks are an option in eText and
I don't think it makes sense either since your
generating a flat-file and not a customer or internal
facing document. Does that make sense?
Also, if you would like you can use the
BIPublisherIDE, this code can be converted pretty
easily to handle jcp. There is a an oa framework
version I have developed but I haven't posted on my
blog yet. I plan on adding a bolt on for java
concurrent programs soon. it's really pretty simple
just haven't had the time.

Thanks Ike for your reply.
I agree with your points on TXT files, but in our case,the reports are generated in TXT format for the customer so we are looking for the above mentioned features.
I have gone through BIP IDE and its a wonderful small utility which eases the task of BIP development.
As I mentioned in my original post that we are currently processing the generated TXT report using a custom util. in JAVA to get the desired output in TXT again.
I assume thats not what a JCP would do,so I am looking to explore that too.
As I understand the process for report generation is
1. Generate XSL from eTEXT template.
2. Get the XML data from DB using XDO
3. Apply XSL on XML to get the required template.
If we are looking to achieve some customizations then we need to have the XSL generated with those customizations.
In this case, where do we plug in the JCP to alter XSL or am I missing something.

Do NOT attempt to use CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GUI_DOWNLOAD. This class and method is for use through the SAPGui and will NOT work within BSP. This information is completely incorrect!
There are lots of existing Weblogs on this subject. Have a look through them for solutions that do work.

Blank printout in report 6i from Application server oracle 9i

Hello,
3 days before our application server (oracle 9i for windows NT 1.0.2.0.0) hard disk crashed.
We have installed AS.
Now when user runs report from client pc and selects destination type as "cache" and submit query he can see the output. When he changes destination type as "printer" and give printer name (as installed on AS) in destination name and submit query the message "Report output was successfully printed out" comes but on printer only blank page is printed.
This happens for all laser printers installed on AS, but not for line(generic) printer.
On 2nd AS I have same printers as on 1st AS.There printouts are coming properly.
Please tell me what I have missed on while installing new AS.
Thanks

Generating Excel Sheet from Reports ......

Hi,
I want to generate reports both in Oracle Reports 6.0, as well
as in Microsoft Excel. The simplest solution I thought was to
generate the Oracle Report first and then, give a button on the
report, which when pressed, can scan the data in the generated
report and write it into an Excel file. The writing part to
Excel file, I can do by using the OLE2 automation. I am not able
to find a way to read the data in the generated report
programatically. Is this possible and if yes, then can anyone
suggest me a way to do this. Is there an alternate solution to
this problem.
regards,
Abhilash

Hi ,
Modified your code .
public void generate(IPortalComponentRequest request) throws Exception {
HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook();
HSSFSheet sheet = wb.createSheet();
HSSFRow row = sheet.createRow(3);
HSSFCell cell = row.createCell((short)0);
HSSFCellStyle cs1 = wb.createCellStyle();
HSSFCellStyle cs2 = wb.createCellStyle();
HSSFCellStyle cs3 = wb.createCellStyle();
HSSFDataFormat df = wb.createDataFormat();
HSSFFont f = wb.createFont();
HSSFFont f2 = wb.createFont();
f.setFontHeightInPoints((short) 12);
f2.setFontHeightInPoints((short) 10);
cs1.setFont(f);
cs1.setDataFormat(df.getFormat("#,##0.0"));
cs2.setFont(f2);
cell.setCellValue(1);
row.createCell((short)1).setCellValue(1.2);
row.createCell((short)2).setCellValue("This is a string");
row.createCell((short)3).setCellValue(true);
HttpServletResponse res = request.getServletResponse(true);
try {
res.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
wb.write(res.getOutputStream());

Generating delimited output from Reports Runtime R60

When generating a delimited file using Runtime how can you predict or determine how Oracle will form the output rows from the report layout? Does anyone have any documentation on Runtime that explains the generation process as there is nothing in the Runtime Reference manual.

The only documentation (such that it is) that I've found on this is in MetaLink, in Note 68245.1 "Delimited Output in Reports" and a tiny bit more in Note 120072.1 "Suppressing header on delimited output".
