How to display a report in CrystalReportViewer when report is a Shortcut

Hello,
In BusinessObjects Enterprise XI R2, we have a shortcut to a report since we don't want to give a particular group of users access to the original folder. However, my objective is to display the "shortcut" report in a .NET web application.
What I'm running into seems to basically be permissions errors when setting the ReportSource of the CrystalReportViewer to the ID of the shortcut. In InfoView, the same user can click the shortcut and the report comes up with no problems.
So my question is how do I display this report in my application's viewer and still honor the privs of the shortcut, and of not the original report?
Partial code listing...
' load the report
Dim reportId As String = Me.SessionState.ReportId
myReportViewer.ReportSource = MyInfoStoreManager.GetReportSource(myEnterpriseSession, reportId)
myReportViewer.EnterpriseLogon = myEnterpriseSession
The relevant code in the GetReportSource method is below...
' retrieve the report from BOXI Infostore
Dim objReportFactoryService As EnterpriseService = myEnterpriseSession.GetService("PSReportFactory")
Dim objFactory As Viewing.PSReportFactory = CType(objReportFactoryService.Interface, Viewing.PSReportFactory)
Dim objReportSource As ISCRReportSource
objReportSource = objFactory.OpenReportSource(intReportId)
Return objReportSource
Thanks,
Horus

Since you're using XI Release 2, there'd be limited options. XI 3.x allow for greater control of rights inheritance, so you can specify no-view rights for the folder, but view rights for the contents of the folder.
So with XI Release 2, since you can't control inheritance, you'd restrict rights to the parent folder, but give each report within specific rights tailored to the User or UserGroup. If you have lots of reports, the rights admin overhead may be problematic, since you'd need to manage them per-object.

How to display username in RTF BI publisher report?

Please advice how to display username in RTF BI publisher report?
May be this can be done via hidden parameter of BIP report which default value will be set up with macro like {$username$} (or smth like)?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks. That worked. I was trying to get it as part of a multi-table query, aliasing dual. But that doesn't work in SQL Plus either so I guess I can't do that.
I was trying
select o.*, d.:xdo_user_name
from oblix_audit_events o, dual d
Before that I was trying
select
:xdo_user_name as USER_ID,
:xdo_user_roles as USER_ROLES,
:xdo_user_report_oracle_lang as REPORT_LANGUAGE,
:xdo_user_report_locale as REPORT_LOCALE,
:xdo_user_ui_oracle_lang as UI_LANGUAGE,
:xdo_user_ui_locale as UI_LOCALE
from dual
but I must have fat fingered something because that works now too. Thanks.
So if I need to do this in it's own query and I'm using an RTF template, how do I make that work?
If I have to do it with it's own

After calling the transaction, this is what I do.
a) Call the function module, MESSAGE_TEXT_BUILD and pass the following values from BDCMSGCOLL or the internal table where you collect the messages.
 i) MSGID
ii) MSGNR
iii) MSGV1
iv) MSGV2
 v) MSGV3
vi) MSGV4
There is no need to fetch data using select from table t100.
It builds the message and returns in MESSAGE_TEXT_OUTPUT which can be then displayed to user.

How to display special characters in APEX Classic Report column

Ref: Thread: How to display newline characters as new lines
Version: APEX 3.2
Hi,
I have created an classic SQL Report with one of the columns being a decode that gives a value 'Post'(the value should be highlighted in Red) on one condition and 'Pre' on another. I have followed the advice given in the page (URL provided above) , i.e. I have changed Strip HTML to 'No', changed Display as to 'Display as text (escape special characters, does not save state)'. I have also passed this value back to the same page to be stored in a page item each time a link (another column in report) in report is clicked. I have tried passing it as #DEADLINE# and \#DEADLINE#\. The issue I face is, instead of the value being highlighted in Red, it gets passed back as a string holding the value 'Post'. Is there any way I can get this to display as it should without the Strip HTML being changed to 'Yes'.
Thanks very much.

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
I am trying to display a page item that is derived from a report column based on a click on the URL link (*view >*>)
This page item (here, it is Manager_ID) should ideally be highlighted when a particular condition is satisfied (achieved using a DECODE in the report).
But it is not displayed like it should be.
I do not want the value to be displayed along with the html tags as a string.
I want the html tags to take effect and highlight the value within it.
Initially, I had set Strip HTML to Yes and the value was returned without any highlighting .
So I changed it to 'No' and and it contained the html tags.
I am not sure what setting in APEX Report Attributes can help me achieve that effect I want.None of the report settings are relevant. They affect the rendering of the report and none of the columns you were changing the properties of were actually rendered.
You can't pass HTML and CSS around in URL parameters.
I suggest you pass *2* values in the column link: the MGR ID and a simple class or colour value computed by the DECODE in the report. I've suppressed the first version of the report and created a new one that does this:
decode(dept.deptno, '30', 'c00', '000') highlight The link column now passes the MGR ID and the HIGHLIGHT colour (red when the condition is satisfied and black when it is not).
I created another hidden and protected page item <tt>P0_HIGHLIGHT</tt> as the target for the highlight value, and used the Pre/Post Element Text properties of the <tt>P0_G_MGR</tt> to wrap it in a <tt>span</tt> whose colour is changed using the <tt>P0_HIGHLIGHT</tt> value as a subtitution string:
Having done that, I still don't really get the requirement here. I'm sure that given the full picture I'd be using a completely different approach...

How to display dynamic header title in the report?

I have a req to display dynamic header title in the report.
When a id is entered in the prompt text, it will display the user data based on that user_id.
so similarly....the header title should vary each time when you select different user_id.
How can we implement this?

Zack..I have several projects listed under several project id's...
so when a user selects project id 00164 then it should display something like "Project document for Jon Doe"
again when the user selects project id as 00192 then it should display something like "project document for Zimmerman"
Did you get it??

Hi Sandeep,
Did you download CR for VS SP 13 from this link?

First link is to integrate CR into VS.
If you did then I suggest you do a Repair on both VS and CR for VS.
Also, VS must be Pro or higher, CR will not work in VS 2013 Express.

How to display Campaigns--- custom Object1-- Accounts in reports?

Hi,
We had requirement that needs to associate Accounts to campaigns, not contacts. I was able to do this using custom object 1 (since many accounts can be associated to many campaigns), having accounts as part of its related information.
So the related information section of Campaigns is a list of custom obj 1s which, in turn, have multiple accounts associated to them.
The question is how to display a list of campaigns and list of accounts associated to each campaign(i.e. the list of accounts associated to the custom objects associated to the campaign) in reports ?
Regards,
Ani.

Ani,
You'll need to use Combined reporting for this functionlity, if you search for this in the KB you should find some information on this or buy Mike Lairsons book from Amazon.com.
Alternatively I used a report filtered by Account ID to show Campaigns targeted to that Account as a related item, this was standard Campaign/Contact/Account reporting. And all we did was add contacts to Campaigns.
cheers

One example are present on web site posted below:

Thank you so much for your help.

Muhammad,
you can add a user parameter (p_count), which get the default value value 1 for example. Then add a field (with some source of type character like desname) for your footer with a format trigger like
if :p_count=1 then
     srw.set_field_char(0,'Office Copy');
elsif :p_count=2 then
     srw.set_field_char(0,'Shop Copy');
else
     srw.set_field_char(0,'Account Dept Copy');
end;
return true;
Or you build 3 boilerplates with format triggers like
if :p_count=1 then return true; else return false; end if; for "Office Copy" .....
In the After Report Trigger start the Report with same paramters using a higher value for p_count as parameter. If p_count=3, do nothing in the trigger.

How to display the parameter in the xmlp report ouput.--Urgent Requirement

Hi All
I have requirement of developing a report using xml publisher.Report has 10 parameters, I have to display the values of all the parameters in the report ouput.
Thanks in advance

yes using <?param@begin:PARAMETER_NAME?> will be good
solution.
when you use this,there will be no need of disturbing
your RDF,no extra formulae columns,no exxtra summary
columns.Hi All
Thanks for the reply, it is working fine with <?param@begin:PARAMETER_NAME?>.
Earlier I use to write all the parameters in the select clause and use it in rtf template.
I think <?param@begin:PARAMETER_NAME?> this is the exact solution for displaying parameter values in the report.
Thank you very much.

How to display LOGO in ALV grid when using class CL_GUI_ALV_GRID

Hello everyone,
please let me know how to display Company logo as the header part in the report program with the class cl_gui_alv_grid.
Thanks and regards,
Padma.

Hi,
Got this info from a site.
http://sap.ittoolbox.com/documents/document.asp?i=3213
In the transaction OAOR, you should be able to insert your company Logo.
GOTO - OAOR (Business Document Navigator)
Give Class Name - PICTURES Class Type - OT..... then Execute
It will show you the list, then select ENJOYSAP_LOGO.
On that list, you will find one control with a "create" tab.
Click std. doc types.
Select SCREEN and double-click.
It will push FILE selection screen.
Select your company logo (.gif) and press OK.
It will ask for a description- for instance: "company logo".
It will let you know your doc has been stored successfully.
You can find your logo under ENJOYSAP_LOGO->Screen->company logo.
Just run your ALV program, you should find your company logo in place of the EnjoySAP logo.
Try this one.

Hi Anne,
If you want to implement Dpka's solution (hardcoding table and column values in column heading and add line break in between), you will need to add the below entry in instanceconfig.xml file. Refer http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/hardenxss
<HardenXSS>false</HardenXSS>
This will enable the HTML elements to be treated as HTML and not plain text. After adding the above entry in the xml, restart your presentation services and test your solution.
Thanks

How to display attributes as keyfigures in a report?

hi experts,
i have a master data like ID is ref.char., under the ID attributes are NET and GROSS, when i am generating the report or query these two attributes ( NET and GROSS) should display as keyfigure which means we can drag these two attributes in column box only not in rows box.is it possible, if yes pl give step by step procedure.
thanks & regards
venkat

Please correct me I understood you wrongly.
You haev master data object "ID" and under attrubutes tab you have two attributes as "Net" and "Gross". Now if you want to use this attribute seperately, in other temrs you have to make these attr to act as individual characteristic so that it can be drag and drop in rows/colm. Please check the navigation box under attr tab. This way these attr will be navigational attr.
