Help Oracle APEX Report Filter.

I have an report with oever 10,000 rows. Currently it is displaying 15 rows per page. I want to filter the report based on a value on one of the columns.
When I click on the column, it shows a drop down list. The value I see on the report is not shown on the drop down list. If I sort the report by that column, the record with that value is shown last as it starts with Z.
I guess there is a limit on how many values are shown in the drop down list. Where can I find the setting for that?

If this is something for end-users, you can code your own lov in the column attributes for that column and then all the records will be displayed.

Embed html code with Oracle Apex report

hello Everybody,
Iam wondering if you guys have any idea about embeding my own html code that has a javascript and html stuff in Oracle Apex page.
Thanks,
Abdul ALkhateeb

Abdul,
This is very common and can be done a few ways. It's actually one of the great things about ApEx - VERY flexible. Please be more specific about what you're trying to do so we could point you in the right direction.

Apex Reports - Comparison to other products Company Reporting tools...

Hey Apex users.
Quick Question.
I'd like to do a quick comparison on the report tools and reporting environments that are out there and available to the public.
When picking a reporting tool, to do Reports for users and to have users build reports inside that selected tool.
Which tool would you use?
Does anyone know of or have any comparison white pages showing the differences between,
XML Publisher, Business Objects (Crystal Reports), Actuate reporting, Cognos Reporting, Oracle Apex reporting?
These are just a few of the major reporting products available.
Their might be even more reporting tools not listed here.
I know that everything I've listed here, are all different tools provided by different companies. But I'd like to here some of your feedback, on your experience when working these different technologies.
Let me know thanks.

Hey Ben
I did miss that tool I'll have to read up on that one. It looks quite interesting.
I'm all about empowering or encouraging users to build their own reports. I don't want to recommend or implement a solution that always requires an IT go to person for the report. With which ever tool is selected, I don't want to see the need for an IT person or an IT dept to be report developers and report publishers. I will admit that you need to have a sql expert on that system that your reporting from, in case the end report developer has a technical question.
But my goal is to see the client develop their own reports.
I'm planning on recommending and implementing a solution that permits the power users/clients to develop their own reports.
I hoping that the solution will not be to IT labor intensive to implement.
The end client should be able administrate the website or portal etc and administrate all the access to the reports and the access to the different systems the tool is connected too. etc.
Thanks Ben for the feedback.

Oracle APEX 4.0 - Interactive Report - Table Column Filter Issue

Environment: Oracle APEX 4.0 - Interactive Report - Table Column header Filter Issue
We have developed an interactive report using Oracle APEX 4.0, which contains a record count of around 3,000 Rows. All the rows values are unique in nature. When we try to filter the same with the help of column header filter option available in the interactive report,We get only 1000 records.
Could some one help us, why this behaviour under APEX Table Column Header Filter as if it does not display beyond 1000 distinct values.
Is there a way or workaround on how to get all the records in the column header filter?
Thanks in advance.

Krish,
Interactive report has hard coded limit to display 1000 rows of column filter LOV for performance. Unfortunately, the limit cannot be changed. The workaround is to define a Column Filter LOV for the column instead of using "Default Based on Column Type".

Hello all,

ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
I am using bi publisher to generate PDF reports in oracle apex.
We were using APEX 4.0 and migrated to 4.2 just a week ago.
Now we have apex 4.2.

How to pass a value to a bind variable in a query report in oracle apex

Hi Guys,
I have requirement to send weekly reports via email to some users. The users should receive their own records in the report. The user details is stored in a table. What I am planning to do is to create a report query in oracle apex to generate the report and then run a function/procedure via a scheduler to email the report to respective users. Now my query is ............. is it possible to pass a value (user name) to the report query to pull records of only that user? I know we can have bind variables in the report query but I have no idea how to pass a value for bind variables from a function/procedure.
Can anyone help me on this issue or suggest a better approach?
Thanks,
San

How to change report query dynamically in Oracle APEX?

Hi,
I want to dynamically change the where condition in APEX report query. Can anyone help me solve my this problem?
(Just want to change the query which we change in Oracle Reports using lexical parameter to change &Where, &Order by etc. dynamically!!)
Thanks, Praful

Hi
I've been using flexible queries in APEX for a few years now, and your question just added a whole new dimension to the flexible and powerful nature or writing reports in APEX.
While APEX Interactive reporting has almost completely removed the need the equivalent of Lexicals in Oracle Reports, I thought it might be fun to try and use lexicals in an APEX report.
Before we start I should summarise the powerful capability of APEX reporting to have oprtional parameters (lots and lots of them if this is needed).
For each parameter, you simply add a page item which will hold the value of the parameter.
The item/parameter can be populated by typing in the value, defining an LOV, using a date-picker etc.
To make the parameter optional simply use an OR in the where clause.
So for a apge item P200_PARAM1.....include
WHERE (:P200_PARAM1 IS NULL
OR COLUMN1 = :P200_PARAM1)
This way you can either leave the page item null or type in / select a value from a LOV.
There is a small quirk in APEX LOV's which sometimes returns a value of '%' or '%null%' - depending on the version - when no value is selected.
See Patrick Wolf's solution for this at Re: Null value handling in LOVs
I include this Application Process in all my APEX applications ;)
Now let's look at using the equivalent of Oracle Reports Lexicals......
First-off - this is based on the APEX SQL report - NOT Interactive Report.
It relies on the fact that you can let the query be parsed only at runtime.
1. Define an SQL report entering the 'core' of your query.
With a query like SELECT ENAME, JOB FROM EMP
Select 'Generic Columns' option in the 'Column Headings' section
Finish the report creation
2. Define a page item - say P200_LEXICAL - type text on the page
3. Edit the report and update the SQL query to include your lexical page item
SELECT ENAME, JOB FROM EMP &P200_LEXICAL. (REMEMBER THE '.' AT THE END)
Ensure that the option "Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only)" is selected at the bottom of the query
4. Add a button to the page -using 'Create a button displayed among this region's items' the will submit the page.
5. Run the page - you will see all the employee names and job desdriptions
6. Enter a where clause into the 'Lexical' textbox - say "WHERE ENAME LIKE 'K%'" and click the 'Go' button
Voila! your where clause is magically applied.
Try any variant you like adding an ORDER BY clause etc...... this is FUN!
7. Clear the value of the LEXICAL and click go.
Edit the report and move the &P200_LEXICAL. into the selected columns (or add another one)
SELECT ENAME, JOB &P200_LEXICAL. FROM EMP
8. Run the page
Enter ",SAL" in the textbox and "Go"
We can add as many columns as we like (subject to the "Maximum number of generic report columns:" set below the SQL query in the report edit section)
Now because we have all the flexibility in APEX of setting page items using SQL or PLSQL you can set the value of the lexical programatically, or just pre-set a few values in an LOV - the options are limitless.
While I've never had the need to use lexicals - you can see that APEX provides the most Flexible Lexicals in town.
Eat your heart out "Oracle Reports"!!!
Have fun
Mike

Oracle APEX PL/SQL reports

Hello
I was wondering if someone can help me with the syntax error, or if someone can give an example how to implement dynamic query based on a select list item.
Last night I was looking how to implement simple PL/SQL report using Oracle Apex source region, but every time I try to run the page I'm getting an error "Flow=128 page=10 ORA-20001: wwv_flow_flash_chart.func_ret_sql_qry_err"
IF I put the same query into SQL developer and replace :P10_STATUS into string 'open', query returns correct results.
It works fine for single table, but not for inner joint.
Any help would be appreciated.
======================================================
declare
v_return varchar2(3000);
begin
IF :P10_STATUS is not null THEN
v_return := 'select p.priority, p.status, i.departments
from help_details p, help_department i
where status = :P10_STATUS';
END IF;
return v_return;
END;
=========================================================

Hi ATD,
Thanks for the suggestions.
Now i have replaced the code as
Declare
v_return varchar2(3000);
begin
     :P1_ITEM1:=:P1_DEPTLOV;
IF :P1_DEPTLOV IS NOT NULL
THEN
v_return:='select dname,deptno from dept ';
return v_return;
ELSE
V_RETURN:='SELECT ename,deptno FROM EMP ';
return v_return;
END IF;
plsql reportEdit
report error:
ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-01403: no data found
DEPTNO     Ename
and in case i change
select dname from dept ; for select dname ,deptno from dept ;
then i m able to see only the col deptno , but in query i never used dept...
I am unable to get where is the mistake ..
Kindly to a favour by using the above link & checking the application .
Regards,
Nandini Thakur.

Calling Oracle Discoverer Report from Apex

How to call Oracle Discoverer Report from apex application?
Thanks!

The report is on a different data base ... need to create a process to get the data into the view behind the report and then materialized view in Apex etc .Then recreate the same report in Apex. But I am trying use the disc report url to invoke the report directly from apex.
Any suggestions or thoughts are greatly aprreciated.

Can Oracle APEX access/report against an Oracle9i datbase?

Can Oracle APEX access/report against an Oracle9i datbase? I know APEX has to be installed on Oracle 11g or 12c. I have a 11g environment to install it in, but I want to have ti read data from an existing 9i databasethat we are unable to upgrade at this time.

APEX can create reports on any data that the database (which is running APEX) can access.
This becomes a database question that is usually found in the General forum:
How can an Oracle 11g database access data from an <place a name of a database here> database?
One common answers: Database Links.
(Materialized Views and Golden Gate come to mind... but, again... these are database problems, not APEX problems.)
I'll let others comment on the practicality of these solutions.

Can APEX produce report output similar to "Oracle Discover report"

Hi All:
We are having some Oracle Discover reports and I like to see whether we can deliver the same report format in APEX 3.1.2.
We got a table which stores sales detailed information. The table looks like:
Division Ln Of Business Year Month Amount
================================
KA Computer 2008 12 1234.67
KA Computer 2008 11 4455
KA Desk 2008 12 9999
KE Phone 2008 12 34566.89
KE Service 2008 12 343434
We have an Oracle discover report built on top of this detail information table. The output (HTML format) looks like:
==============================================================
Net Sales Report As of <SYSDATE>
Year: 2008
Month: 09
Sales Forecast Variance
Dvision Ln of Business
KA Computer 10000 90000 -80000
Desk 20000 10000 10000
Service 30000 30000 0
KE Phone 40000 40000 0
Service 50000 60000 -10000
150000 230000 -70000 (This is summary information)
================================================================
Basically, this summary sales report is reviewed by executive team on daily basis. And it show all summary information break by division, line of business etc.
Can you APEX deliver the same report output like Oracle discover report? I don't want use interactive report format. (You can't expect company CEO to manually summary the data). The report should already summarized when ECO logins to APEX.
If you can show me an example how to do it, I would greatly appreciate.
BTW, has anyone compare the advantage and disadvantage between APEX report and Oracle Discover report? A white paper would be great for the difference.
Thanks in advance!
Kevin

You can create almost any kind of dashboard using apex but apex is not a tool comparable to discoverer. There are also some limitations where it doesn't make sense to try to solve someting using apex and where discoverer is simply better. Apex wasn't made to replace discoverer. Your requirement sounds fairly simple to me and I would say yes, apex can do that for you.

Help: need to extract an application from oracle/apex directory

Hi, all!
I worked on oracle10xe and apex 1.3.1 and then messed with partition table a bit so got my windows crashed and I don't believe i'll be able to restore it.
so what i have is an oracle directory from the long-dead windows with apex inside, and i need to extract the applications and the data i was working with somehow.
Any thoughts?
Does anybody knows where does oracle store all its databases and where apex keeps its applications?
oraclexe\oradata\xe\ has some .dbf files in it, will it work if i just write them over in a newly installed oracle+apex?

Hello,
At this point, since you can't turn to Oracle Support (since it is XE), then I would suggest asking amongst your colleagues/friends/etc and trying to find a friendly DBA who will try and help you out for a beer or 3.
Depending on how critical your work was, I wouldn't throw away all hope of recovering your database until you've exhausted all the options.
