GO button to execute a query once report parameters are selected.

I am familiar with the GO button depicted in chapter 10 of the 2 Day Developer manual that does not cause the report to be rendered until a user chooses a value from a select list of values. The GO button is used in conjunction with Null Value Text (ex. -Select-), Null Value (ex. -1), and Default (ex.-1).
I need an alternative to the above method that will still force the user to pick a value from the List Of Values parameters prior to executing the query and rendering the report. Please provide.
Thanks, Don From Maine

Why don't you use a validation process?

0ADHOC error while executing the query from Report Designer

Hi All,
When I am executing The Query from Report Designer, am getting the below error.
Please help me in this regard.

Hi,
The web template 0ADHOC is usually the standard web template for 3.x queries. The Report Designer executes the reports in java web, thus tries to find the template 0ADHOC in the 7.0 templates and does not find it. Check whether you have maintained the standard web template 0ADHOC for 7.0 reports also:
Transaktion SPRO -> SAP Reference Image -> SAP NetWeaver -> Business Intelligence -> Settings for Reporting and Analysis -> Bex Web -> Set Standard Web Templates

Press button to execute MYSQL query on database

Hi, I was looking for a solution to this:
I want to create a button in a jsp page.
When a user presses the button, it executes a SQL Query on a database.
There is no need to take any info from the jsp page.
Is there a solution to this problem?
For example, when I press the button, I want it to execute a query like this:
INSERT INTO table3(name)
SELECT name FROM table1,table2
WHERE table1.timestamp>table2.timestamp
GROUP BY name;This query is functional in MySQL, and all I need is to convince that button to execute the query.
table1 contains 100 values
table2 contains only one row, and only one timestamp value and is a value inserted by user through a jsp page
Extra:
After this is executed, it would be nice to display a confirmation in the initial page.
Also, it would be nice to be able too see what values were inserted into table 2
I have been searching a lot for a solution in many forums, but with no results yet.
I can't believe jsp doesn't have a solution for this.
Please help me.
Thanks :)

Execute vo query once in a page/region

Hi OAF Experts,
I have a region that executes a VO at processRequest. Now, when I navigate to the next page OR click a subtab to take me to another region (the other region from the subtab has its own controller), the VO is re-executed when I go back to the same region. I only want to execute the vo ONCE when it is called from a source page (the source page in this regards is the Hierarchy Page from HR). How do I do this? It seems that PPR is the answer but I cannot find any example anywhere. Can someone please help shed light on this? Is there any sample code that I can also look at?
Thank you very much.

use if(!vo.isPreparedForExecution()) {vo.executeQuery()}

Database query using report parameters in Report Viewer 2008 and CR-XI

Hi - I have written a report for in-house use on an Access database. The report uses parameters to filter the record selection for reporting. The report operates fine in Crystal XI, but in Crystal Report Viewer 2008, the parameters are not shown and appear to be inaccessible. Is there a way to query the database in CRV2008, as opposed to simply showing the data that was saved from CR-XI in the report? Would I have to use the Crystal Server to do this? Is there a no-cost solution that I could use instead of CRV2008 for such functionality?
Thanks - Barney

Hi Barney,
As noted CRV is for reports with saved data only, no prompting allowed. I'll move this post to the OnDemand forums, possibly they have suggestions a s work around.
You should call our Sales team and describe your situation, possibly they have a low cost solution for you.
If you have a .NET or Java developer available you could always write and host your own WEB app that would be simple to use and should not take to much to do.
We have samples that you could use so most of the work is done for you.
Thank you
Don

BIP report parameters are comming in given sequance.

Hi..
I have report in which i m passing two parameters.
<?param@begin:fromdate?>
<?param@begin:todate?>
While taking report these parameters are not coming in given sequance means i want first para as Fromdate then todate, but every time todate is get displyed first.
I tried by chaging sequace also but the same thing i m getting.

I had to modify slightly the logic in your RTF template and add some values in your XML sample data for this to test.
It is working as expected.

Default values for static report parameters are not visible when scheduling

Hello
Crystal Reports 2008 Dev
Crystal Reports Server 2008
When I publish a report to the repository and then try to schedule that report, the default value that I have set for a static parameter in the report is not visible.
In the Parameters section of the Scheduling wizard this parameter is marked as [EMPTY]
However, when I View the report (right click and select View) from within Infoview, the parameter default value is visible
I have published in the following 3 ways:
Publishing Wizard
File > Save As > Enterprise from withing Crystal Reports Dev
CMC > Folders > Add > Crystal Reports
The results are the same for each method of publishing.
To try to eliminate any DB issues etc i have created a report that is not attached to a datasource.
This test report has one Static parameter.
I have set 3 values for its list: Entry A, Entry B, Entry C
Entry X is set as the parameter Default Value
The parameter is placed in the details section of the report
When the report is Viewed it will prompt for parameter entry, with the default value present
When I try to schedule the report is will not have an entry for its parameter
It seems to me that the default values for parameters should be retained from report design through to report schedule, especially when the default values are retained from report design to report View
Is this a config problem that i have ?
Can anyone help me with this ?
Best regards
Patrick Coote

Hi Robert
Thanks for the reply and apologies for not responding sooner.
What i have found is that if i use Publishing Wizard to upload reports it is then possible to set values for prompts during the last step of this process.
Although this is a bit clumsy, it is sufficient for now

Include Button that executes PL/SQL procedure to SQL query based region

I would like to add two columns to a SQL query region.
These columns would not be sourced from the query, but rather would be used to execute a PL/SQL procedure.
For example, I would like to have a manager approve or deny adding an additional employee to the department.
There would be one button for APPROVE. And, one button for DENY.
The PL/SQL procedure would execute to perform the required DML based upon the selected action (either APPROVE or DENY).
A sample output would look like this:
<APPROVE>, <DENY>, John Doe, Accountant
<APPROVE>, <DENY>, Jane Doe, Accountant
Is there any way to add a button to a SQL Query based report region where that button executes a stored proc? If so, what is the basic process for doing this?
Thanks!

i want when i press on the button i execute a query which has a condition in the textfield and i want that the result will be shown in the jtable.

Hello,
I would test the record status of the first record in the block. If this status is 'NEW', then there is no record retrieved, so that you can exit the query mode with exit_form()

Hi,
The Path is C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
You need to update "host file" in your server/in your PC. So ask Network people to do it and also you need to change your browser LANsettings.
Eg: 11.11.8.161 BWQ1 BWQ1.***.com
Like above you need to change in your host file.

Apex 4.0 how to add a button to each row of a report

Hi Everyone
I have to a requirement where i need to add a button or link to each row of report dynamically and when a user clicks on it region has to display a region below.
For example displaying report in region 1 and when a user clicks the link or button the region 2 has to appear based on the condition.
Report display details of employee , employeename, emp no, manager, depto, sal,feedback and if the feedback is filled then the link should not appear and if feedback is not filled and the link or button should appear beside that row and allow the user to click and when it is clicked it has to show region 2 .
I am new to Apex, please help me out how to do this.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Sandeep

Step 1:
Add a new item to set ID principal in report 2. ex. "P2000_ID" (maybe hidden item)
Step 2:
in report 1 section "report Attributes" section "Link Column"
-> Link Column = Link to Custom Target
-> Link Icon: Select some Icon link.
-> Target: Page in this Application
-> Page: same page ex. 2000.
-> Item 1: "Name" = select Item created (step 1) "P200_ID" "Value" = #NAME_OF_ID_COLUMN_IN_REPORT_1#
-> Apply Changes
Step 3:
Create query to report 2
Ex.
select *
from
TABLE2
where
ID=:P2000_ID
-> In Report2 condition
* Condition Type = Value of item in Expression 1 Is NOT NULL
* Expression1 = P2000_ID

How to query Database with Parameters and configure null value response?

Hi,
1.When capture attributes from forms & after applying several logics, passing to a DB table using an API, how to get relevant values for a given parameter in another DB table ?
2.When a DB table is queried, if the value does not exist, how to configure the response message ?
Thanks.

Okay, you've provided exactly what John S. asked for - and no more. This is helpful, but not enough. I think we're going to need a use case to understand exactly what you are asking. What should the user see? What does the user do next? What should happen in the database and in the application when the user does this?
However, I'll try to read between the lines a bit, and get you part of the way there. To query the database with parameters in ADF BC, you need a View Object (VO). The simplest thing to do is create the SELECT command behind the VO with some bind variables and add the bind variables to your VO. At that point, you will get an ExecuteWithParameters operation in the Data Control. You can drag that operation onto a JSF page and it will give you an option to create a parameter form to let the user fill in the parameters to set the bind variables, and a button to execute the query with these values. Any table or form based on that same VO will show the selected data.
A Trinidad or ADF Rich Faces table will have an attribute to let you define some text to show the user if no data was retrieved by the query. But there are other ways to determine if data was retrieved which you can use to control other ways to display this information. For instance, I have a page that has an outputText component that has a "rendered" attribute to show the text only when there was no data retrieved by a query.

Can I stop a report from Re-executing the query when I go back to that page

I have a report that has a complicated query and looks at a lot of information to display the results. This query then links of to show details of individual items that were displayed in the result. But when I hit the back button on the browser, it executes the query again and it takes a while for the page to load.
Is there any way to stop this and only execute the query when the User pushes a Button on the page else display the previous results.
Thanks
Sriram

Another alternative is to make that detail link open in a popup window using
javascript:popupURL(...);This way, the complicated report page is always visible.

GO button to execute a query once report parameters are selected.
