Goto option for reports

hi
I have a report to report interface for two reprots.
one is summary and other one details
when i run the summary report in portal I have(with my user-id) the option "GOTO" to go to the details report.
But the option "GOTO" is not available to the users who have the authorizations to access the two reports in portal as well as in BW.
I check by giving the same authorizations of mine to the users but still they are not able to see the option.
How to overcome this issue.
Please help me
Sridath..

Need to add print and download options for report in new window

Hi,
On one of the columns empid of the report1 (which is on the dashboard) , I am using navigation and pointing it to report2.
Report1 has all the links, print, download and refresh (I enabled them using the section properties) but when I click on empid and it takes me to report2, then I don't see any links under that report. I want to include print and download links for report2 when it opens in the new window.
I know, one way is to embedd that report in the dashboard page and hide it, but is there any other way of doing it?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ronny

Just to clarify again, I am using a navigation from report1 (which is on the dashboard) to report2 (which is not on the dashboard).
As per the requirements, I can't put my report2 on any dashboard page and hide it and then use navigation. Also, I can't enable the print and download options for report1 which is already on the dashboard. Doing this gives me print and download options for report2 but that is not the requirement.
Is there any way to have print and download options for report2 when I am directly navigating to the report2 from report1 and not the report2 on any dashboard page which is hidden.
I will really appreciate any help on this.
Thanks,
RonnyPlease explain why you can't do what I said. What is the "requirements" that prevent this? It would be transparent to the user, really. They just click and get their report.

Hi Zameer,
Are you talking about an interactive report or a normal classic report and enabling printing on that?

This is article about "PDF Printing in Application Express" but contains details about integrating Oracle BI Publisher
Refer to the section 3

Query Best Practice for Reports

I am new to Apex and I am wondering what is the best practice for store your sql quries for reports. I am a believer of storing all sql behind pacakge functions or procedures. And it looks like the only options for report pages are to use a direct SQL query, or a function that returns a query as a string. Yes the function method counts as putting the code in Oracle but not really. It is still getting compiled and parsed on the Apex side. It would be nice if Apex could handle a cursor but I have read that it doesn't directly. You have to have a function that returns a cursor and then create a pipelined function that calls the cursor function. That is kind of silly. Is there some other way to do this?
Apex 4.2
Oracle 11.2.0.2
Thanks for any input.
Jeff

Hi Jeff,
I'm not necessarily a believer in packaging queries. I'm a little more pragmatic in that I believe it may make sense in environments where you have a client environment that just expects a result set that is then manipulated by the client for the purposes of presentation, pagination etc. Apex has a different architecture in that the client is purely an HTML presentation layer (browser) and the presentation, pagination etc is formulated in the database along with the data using the Oracle web toolkit, which is a set of internal packages that produce HTML. Note that handling and manipulating ref cursors inside PL/SQL is not a joy, they were mainly designed to be passed out to external clients. (Often to shield programmers who don't or won't even try to understand relational concepts)
This means that when you create a report based on a query, the Apex engine will manipulate that base query, depending on the display requirements and pagination requirements of your report, before it submits that query to the database for execution. To get an idea of how this manipulation occurs, you can run your report in debug mode and check the actual query that is submitted to the database. If the query is presented as an already executed ref cursor, then the Apex engine can't execute in the way that it does. As you have already found out, the only way of using packaged queries returning ref cursors is by the use of a pipelined function, so that the Apex engine can treat the result as a normal query.
This is the architecture of Apex, and I suspect that re-engineering the Apex engine to handle ref cursors natively, as opposed to using a pipelining trick, would be a considerable change. I hope this at least helps to explain why ref cursors and Apex don't mix. I personally don't see the purpose of having an abstraction layer of packaged queries below an abstraction layer of an API such as Apex. SQL is a perfectly good API.

Best Approach for Reporting on SAP HANA Views

Hi,
Kindly provide information w.r.t the best approach for the reporting on HANA views for the architecture displayed below:
We are on a lookout for information mainly around the following points:
There are two reporting options which are known to us and listed below namely:
Reporting on HANA views through SAP BW (View > VirtualProvider > BEx > BI 4.1)
Reporting on HANA views in ECC using BI 4.1 tools
Which is the best option for reporting (please provide supportive reasons : as in advantages and limitations)?
In case a better approach exists, please let us know of the same.
Best approach for reporting option on a mixed scenario wherein data of BW and HANA views is to be utilized together.

Hi Alston,
To be honest I did not understand the architecture that you have figured out in your message.
Do you have HANA instance as far as I understood and one ERP and BW is running on HANA. Or there might be 2 HANA instance and ERP and BW are running independently.
Anyway If you have HANA you have many options to present data by using analytic views. Also you have BW on HANA as EDW. So for both you can use BO and Lumira as well for presenting data.
Check this document as well: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-34403

Sorting options for SLCM

In SLCM we use mixed case for names and addresses. When we do a name search or a sort within a report...the sort takes into count upper/lower case characters.
Example...a sort on L* would show these students listed as...
LaRochelle, Michelle Marie
Laplaunt, Joseph Gregory
We would rather the sorting for search lists or when used for program output to use the American Standard of sorting which would not take count of the upper case characters.
The above example would then be listed as...
Laplaunt, Joseph Gregory
LaRochelle, Michelle Marie
I have searched the IMG and do not see a place to configure this.
Please advise.
Thank you.
Mike

Thanks PK...
I ended up filing a OSS note along with this. They are going to check with their basis team for when this occurs in master data or student file doing a name search. I will update when they get back to me.
In regards to sorting in reports, SAP suggested using the "AS TEXT" along with the SORT command. We did try this, but it didn't do anything different on our system. We saw in their documentation the same idea you suggested. So we will probably use that option for reporting.
Thanks for your help!

Remote save for report builder

CF Report builder does not have an option to save .cfr file
to remote server (rds). I don't have CF installed on my client and
every time I make changes to .cfr file I have to upload to the
server.I wish they had remote save option for report builder like
CF studis or deamweaver.

My solution was to keep the cfr in the same place as the rest
of the application. Since when creating a cfr I usually have DW
open along with it, i just switch back to DW after a save and
upload the cfr from DW. Not really that big of deal, or I am just
used to now.

Option for error handling for DTP, ' no updata, no reporting" and "deactiva

Hello Gurus,
     option for error handling for DTP, ' no updata, no reporting" and "deactivated" , please give some explanation and instance for them?
Many Thanks,

On the Update tab page, specify how you want the system to respond to data records with errors:
                            a.      No update, no reporting (default)
If errors occur, the system terminates the update of the entire data package. The request is not released for reporting. However, the system continues to check the records.
                            b.      Update valid records, no reporting (request red)
This option allows you to update valid data. This data is only released for reporting after the administrator checks the incorrect records that have not been updated and manually releases the request by setting the overall status on the Status tab page in the monitor (QM action).
                            c.      Update valid records, reporting possible
Valid records can be reported immediately. Automatic follow-up actions, such as adjusting the aggregates, are also carried out.

"database logon" option for schedule report

When scheduling a report,
Crystal report has the "database logon" option in "shcedule" property page.
But I can't find the "database logon" option for webi report or deski report.
Is this by design.

Hi Tina,
We do not have data base logon option while scheduling the report.
I am not sure what is the significance of it in Crystal but in Webi or deski report we do not need it. We have connections for every universe/report and that has these database log on credential in it. Based on it reports get refresh and run.
Thanks

TestStand override report options for one sub-sequence

I have a TestStand sequence that calls 17 sub-sequences. I have the Report Options "Result Filtering Expression" set to "Exclude Passed/Done/Skipped". I am using TXT reports.
I want to override the Results Filtering report option for one of my sub-sequences (Voltage Test). I have included the ReportOptions Callback in the Voltage Test sub-sequence. The callback contains a statement that sets "Parameters.ReportOptions.ResultFilterExpression = "True"". The sub-sequence test results are still not appearing in the Report. I see no place in the TestStand documentation where the arguments for the "Parameters.ReportOptions.ResultFilterExpression" are listed. What am I doing wrong?

Hi
I have changed the attached sequencefile for the following in the ReportOptions
Parameters.ReportOptions.ResultFilterExpression = "Result.Status != \"Passed\" && Result.Status != \"Done\" && Result.Status != \"Skipped\""
One tip,
to get the correct syntax for the ReportOptions, place a break point in the ReportOptions. Before executing the Sequence File, setup the required parameter in the Configure | Report Options. Run the Single Pass, when it stops at the break point, you can then copy the contents of the required parameter.

Is Data Guard good option for Operational Reports

One of our DBA has suggested to have data guard to produce real time or nearly real time(15 min. delay) operational reports, by which we can remove the load on OLTP system. Is it a good practice to use data guard for reporting purpose? what if Production OLTP system goes down (planned or unplanned maintenance), will data guard act as production OLTP database? Can any one in this forum provide some help to understand data guard concept?

Whether this is a good option or not depends on a lot of factors - including which version of Oracle you are using, and what your operating system you have selected.
In it's simplest form, Data Guard is the controller for hot standby synchronization and database failover. But, once you have a hot standby you may want to use it for other things. That additional use involves compromise - for example, while the standby is used for reporting, it is not applying the sync'ing data [as fast] and there could be unacceptable delays.
I encourage you to start with the Oracle portal for Data Guard and get familiar with come of the white papers. Move forward to the documentation and the forum dedicated to the technology.
