how can i group above and left in an existing classic reports? What does "group above and left" mean? A demonstration layout on apex.oracle.com or here (using tags<tt>\...\</tt> tags to preserve formatting) would be helpful.
The options for break formatting on classic reports are:
<li>The basic built-in control break features.
<li>Simple DIY break layout on any number of columns using analytics in the source query: +{message:id=10679160}+
<li>Complex report layout with multi-level headings using analytics in the source query and a custom named column report template with conditional row templates: +{message:id=9816577}+
When you have a problem you'll get a faster, more effective response by including as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should include:
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
<li>Theme
<li>Template(s)
<li>Region/item type(s) (making particular distinction as to whether a "report" is a standard report, an interactive report, or in fact an "updateable report" (i.e. a tabular form)
With APEX we're also fortunate to have a great resource in apex.oracle.com where we can reproduce and share problems. Reproducing things there is the best way to troubleshoot most issues, especially those relating to layout and visual formatting. If you expect a detailed answer then it's appropriate for you to take on a significant part of the effort by getting as far as possible with an example of the problem on apex.oracle.com before asking for assistance with specific issues, which we can then see at first hand.

Problem in creating group above AND group left in one report!

Hi all,
I need a report that is a combination of group above and group
left.
Suppose I have 3 table (Emp, Sales, Product):
Emp Table has 2 column
- Emp_PK
- Emp_Name
Sales Table has 4 column
-Sales_PK
-Sales_Date
-Emp_FK
-Produck_FK
-Quantity
Product Table has 3 column
-Product_PK
-Product_Name
-Product_Price
I want to make Employee Sales Report For The Month that will
look like this:
Emp Number___: Emp_PK
Emp Name_____: Emp_Name
Sales Date______Product_Name____Quantity \(2 sales
________________Product_Name____Quantity /the date)
Sales_Date______Product_Name____Quantity
As you can see this consist of group above (The Employee) and
group left (The Sales and Product).
I create this by using 2 queries and link them (the Emp_PK from
1st query and Emp_FK from 2nd query) on the report builder using
data link.
The first query is:
Select Emp_PK, Emp_Name from Emp
The second query is
Select Emp_FK, Sales_Date, Product_Name, Quantity
From Sales, Product
Where Product_PK=PRODUCT_FK
I then create the layout for second query and choose group left
for Sales_Date using wizard and I create additional layout to
for the employee.
The problem is that when I run this report, it will print ALL
the employee record first (including employee who has NOT sale
anything) and then on the last page it will print the record of
Last employee on the Emp table and ALL sales record (including
those that is done by other employee).
This report will run correctly if I choose an exact employee
(For example by adding Where Emp_PK=1111 in the first query) to
report all of the sales done by this person (employee with emp
number of 1111). However I need the report to run and print
ONLY those employee who has Sales Records!
I thought that by linking the 2 queries in Data Model, it will
have the same effect as linking using the WHERE clause in query.
If suppose I create a query like this:
SELECT Emp_PK, Emp_Name, Sales_Date, Product_Name, Quantity
FROM Emp, Sales, Product
WHERE Emp_PK=Emp_FK AND Product_PK=Product_FK
The report will run OK but I can only choose EITHER group above
or group left for this ONE query methods in report Wizard.
Sorry if it is a long question but I hope you can see what I am
trying to do.
Thanks in advance for any tip.

hello,
of course you can create group left and group above blocks in a
single report.
you might want to use the INSERT REPORT BLOCK instead of the
report wizard, as the report wizard only allows you to use one
report layout per report, where the report block wizard (invoked
by INSERT REPORT BLOCK) allows you to choose on a per-block
basis.
of course you can create the blocks completely from scarth by
hand, if you want to.

(Classic) Report losing pagination on partial page refresh - APEX feature request

I have a page with both an Interactive Report and some classic Report regions.
Based on user updates, there are many occasions where I need to do a partial page refresh.
Thanks to plugin http://www.apex-plugin.com/oracle-apex-plugins/dynamic-action-plugin/refresh-interactive-report-1.0_361.html
I'm able to refresh my IR, but not my classic report (unless I do a submit of the whole page) without losing pagination.
Request: Will a Dynamic action 'Refresh without losing pagination' be part of future apex versions?
Now, in apex 4.2, is there another work around available for classic reports?
(I use 'submit page' now as action, but it's at least a second slower as a partial refresh, and because I need it on every user update, this second becomes a big addition to user frustration).
Thanks, JP

Any suggestions?

Make a group above report for the first 2 groups. in the Data model extend the detail's repeating enclosing frame.
Inside this frame draw an additional default layout (a button in the Layout Editor on the left toolbar) and inside this one insert your detail group.
Or... you can create an above group without any break first, then separate a group in the Data Model and add a repeating frame around the detail columns. Specifi as source of this frame the name of the detail group from the Data Model.

Converting a Group Left to a Group Above Report

I have created a dozen group left reports which I thought would only take up one page of data. I have found that some of them will actually require more pages but the report will only produce 1 page.
As an example I created the same report but used the group above style and this time by default it creates multiple pages. So how can I change my other reports into the group above style - note I cannot use the wizard as I have made many layout changes which woujld be lost.

It's not because of Group Left vs Group Above that report display only the first page. Make sure the Print Object On property of the repeation frames set to First Page Only, not All Pages.

First group heading below displays below column headings using Template 23 Classic Report using Repeat Headings on Break

Hello,
I am migrating an application from APEX 3 to APEX 4.2 on one thing I notice with the classic reports when I bring them into Template 23 is that the first break section has the break row display below the column headers for that section while the remaining rows correctly have it display above the headers on subsequent group sections.
When I look a the code in firebug I can seen that the all tables but the first, the break row is being included as the last row of the previous table so I can see how this would not work for the break since.
I have tow questions.
1. Is this really intentional because it doesn't seem terribly elegant and my users zeroed in on it right away as a perceived bug.
2. Is there a reasonable work around that still uses Repeat Headings on Break? I have multiple reports on the same page in places so changing over to interactive reports is not a silver bullet for me in this case.
Example of issue can be seen at apex.oracle.com at Home
Thanks,
Brad

1. Is this really intentional because it doesn't seem terribly elegant and my users zeroed in on it right away as a perceived bug.
The Standard report template definition in theme 23 contains thead and tbody elements:
Before Column Heading
<thead>
Column Heading Template
<th #ALIGNMENT# id="#COLUMN_HEADER_NAME#">#COLUMN_HEADER#</th>
After Column Heading
</thead>
<tbody>
After Rows
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody class="uReportPagination">
#PAGINATION#
</tbody>
</table>
<div class="uReportDownloadLinks">#EXTERNAL_LINK##CSV_LINK#</div>
This is intentional, following best practice for marking up HTML tables. What is not intended is the problem that arises when this template is used with the Repeat Headings on Break break formatting option. The repeated headings result in the table consisting of tag soup containing multiple incorrectly constructed tbody and thead elements, which is invalid.
2. Is there a reasonable work around that still uses Repeat Headings on Break? I have multiple reports on the same page in places so changing over to interactive reports is not a silver bullet for me in this case.
Create a copy of the Standard report template as Standard (break formatting) for use with break reports, remove the thead and tbody tags from the template definitions, and change the break reports to use the new template. (Or, if you primarily have break reports using the Standard template, keep the tags in the copy and remove them from the original to minimize the number of reports you have to edit.)
Personally I'd create a custom row report template for complex break reports in order to be able to have complete control over the structure and presentation.

How to Group left + group above

I am new to oracle report. Hope to get clear steps thx.
I have 7 columns in my report. 3 columns using group-left and i want to use another 1 column for group above.
How do i create group above for the column i want ?

It is not clear to me how your report layout will be looking at runtime. Can you provide any output example.
Always use the 6 digit before and after your example. Only small letters inside the curly brackets. For more information see FAQ right corner of the page.

Mixing of interactive report and classic report fails the RESET PAGINATION process.

I have a tab page where i got 3 different reports REPORT_A (classic), REPORT_B(interactive) and REPORT_C (CLASSIC) in the same alphabetic order. I have a reset pagination page process which will always fire (without any condition) when you visit the page via tab.
The reset pagination process which exists in the before header stage is firing but not resetting the interactive report. It does affect the subsequent classic report REPORT_C as well. The REPORT_A would reset pagination fine since it exists before the interactive report. Is this a know bug in apex?
I created a test demo application with exact steps to reproduce the problem. The steps are in the demo website itself.
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=56638
U: testuser
P: password
Apex Version: 4.2.4.00.08
In my real application i would have a dropdownlist in the page based on which I would filter the data. The dropdownlist will have a corresponding after-submit branch which will handle the reset pagination & RIR absolutely fine. But when we visit the website through tab the above problem would crash the page.
I tried solutions like gReport.search('SEARCH') but that will fix only the interactive report, not the classic REPORT_C. That is just a hack anyway.
Any ideas.?

in classic report pagination need to be make it up max rows in APEX_SCHEMA(APEX_040200) itself. i was fixed this issue long back myself,but right now i don't remember which table! so please check the schema and track it.
This makes very little sense to me. Please explain this in detail. Are you advocating making changes to APEX metadata by executing DML on tables in the APEX_040200 schema? Doing so will leave your APEX instance in an unsupported an possibly inoperable state.

Break Column in Group Above Report - Causing Error in Data Groupings

Since I'm required to designate at least one Break Column in my Group Above report, I created a dummy column in my SELECT statement. I did this so that I could designate the required minimum of at least one break column, but I designated one that won't have any impact on how the report is ordered, because it will be the same value (NULL) for every record. So, my SELECT statement starts out looking something like this:
SELECT
NULL break_column,
column_1 column1_name,
column_2 column2_name,
column_3 column3_name,
column_4 column4_name,
column_5 column5_name
I needed for the break column to have no impact on the ordering of the report because I need for the ORDER BY clause to completely control how the report is sorted, w/o any interference by a hard-coded break column. I need this because my intention is to make the ORDER BY clause dynamic, and a hard-coded break column with actual data would supercede the ORDER BY clause, thereby making it static.
Everything is working correctly with regard to how the report is sorting the records designated as group columns; however, the detail columns are getting all messed up as far as what main record they're grouped under.
By this I mean that when I designate only one break column, some details may display under the wrong group, where they're not supposed to. For example, each page consists of demographic info. about a specific record on a table, and the details listed under it should be the individual comments that have been made on that record. The issue I'm seeing is that for some records, it's showing comments from not only the record for that group, but it continues to list out comments made for other requests as well, when those comments should be displayed under their own respective records.
Why is this happening when I designate only one break column, and how can I keep it from doing this?

Did you get a solution for this?
I have the same problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Madhu

ThanksIf you want to display total qty for each month and you already done it. as you says..
total is getting displayed for each month.If not ,
Take a summary column at month group >> at properties .. Summary Function : Sum , Reset at month group.
and for grand total
take a summary column outside the query. >> at properties .. Summary Function : Sum , Reset at report.
Hope it works.

How to design group above report manualy

I want to design group above report manually. How can i define main repeating frame and then internal repeating frame like report builder.

Hi,
one possibel way is:
//-- loop through all master values
<?for-each:DEPT_ROW?>
//-- store the master key in a variable
<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,'v_DEPTNO',DEPTNO)?>
//-- Output of master data
<?DEPTNO?>
<?DNAME?>
//-- Loop through second dataset looking vor all data suitable to the current master key
<?for-each://EMP_ROW[xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, 'v_DEPTNO')=DEPTNO]?>
<?ENAME?>
<?JOB?>
<?end for-each?>
<?end for-each?>
