How to include a button in report header like rowspan? &logfile generation?

I am really new to this form and I have some questions on the APEX HTML DB:
The project I need to work on is like this: Based on some criteria, I need to do a database lookup. Then in the result, I need to be able to edit the individual record. So far it is no problem. Here comes the part that I am not sure how to handle or if it can be handled.
1. We need to have the ability to copy down certain columns value to selected rows. Therefore, a "copy down" button needs to be included right under the column header cell. For example, based on certain criteria, the following product information is returned: product description, serial number, price, category etc. The “COPY DOWN” button needs to be listed right under the “serial number” table header and before the first row of the result, like “rowspan” in html table header. Once you click on “copy down”, the first rows’s serial number will be copied to all selected rows “serial number”. – Can a button be put right under a column header? If so, can I even reference the cell value in javascript?
2. Since we are doing the batch update, I need to have the ability to maintain a logfile to include date and time and what information is modified. – Can I generate a logfile from APEX HTML DB?
I am not sure APEX HTML DB is a good candidate for the above two tasks.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi user572980,
Welcome to APEX... the more you'll do with it, the more you'll like it.
1) Are you using a Tabbed Form? Or are you in a report? I try to get a better idea what you're trying to do. Did you already have a look at the templates? You can have a template for the report for ex., in that you can adapt like you wish (in your case put a button under the column header).
You can also reference the cell values, but for that I should know where you're in (form, report). When you click right on the page and have a look at Page Source you see what item (reference) it is.
2) You can make a logfile yes. Are you using packages to do the batch update? In that you can make some code to store the history. In otherwords, out-of-the-box in APEX I don't think it exists, but with PLSQL you can do it (so also in APEX). For ex. the plsql package stores it in a history table and you built a report on top of that.

How to include preUUTloop results in report?

In preUUTloop the operator is polled to choose a few parameters (messages with 2-3 buttons to choose from)
How do I record his choces in the report?
Desirably, this data should be reported in the very beginning on the report only, not in every UUT loop.

Thank you!

Hi,
Take a look at this example.
I have attached it to every uut just to demonstrate how it works
I your case i would also override the ModifyReportHeader Callback and add it Report header
wich is a little bit of work.

How to include row count in report

I have a report which shows list of available classes for students to register. One table called reg (which is not included in the report) keeps student_id and class_id numbers so that we know who signed up for which class.
I'd like to count rows in the reg table and group them by classid and then include results in the report so that we know how many students already signed up for each class. How can I do that?

I assume that you are providing the report with some SQL to pull in the available classes. Why don't you put in a sub select where you are doing a count on the other table?
So for example,
SELECT a.CLASSID, a.CLASSNAME, (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM STUDENTS where CLASSID = a.CLASSID ...Your group by, etc...) as Current FROM CLASSES

I have rad various threads but they all assume that the button is visible. My requirement is activate it so that it becomes visble.

How to include #/Blank Value in Report

Hi,
Our cube is loaded with Flat file,The cude didn't had any master data only transaction data.The records are based on user name in flat file there some records with out user name in flatfile with BLANK which is #
The data is loading into cube where blank is loaded as balk spack
but in report i want to restrict the user name to exclude the bank (User Name) Records with out user name...But the # is not appearing in the user name list in Bex to restrict...how can i include the #
Thanks

Krishna,
In the report you want to exclude the data where username is #. Correct? And when you try to do that in the Query Designer, you don't see the # value in the list?
In the list if you dont see it, simplest way is this... There is a search box at the bottom of that screen. In that type #. Dont hit search. Click on the left arrow which moves the values to the right. Now right click on the value and say "Exclude from Selection".
Let me know if I understood your question correctly and if you can get it to work.

How to add push button in report.

Hi,
how to add a push button in the standard list report and on clicking which the line-size of the screen should reduce from 300 to 100.
how to proceed.
Can anyone help me.
Regards
Guhapriyan

Hii Guhapriyam,
You can ceate PUSHBUTTON in selection-screen like Below
SELECTION-SCREEN PUSHBUTTON 2(10) text-004 USER-COMMAND CL1.
Create a variable to hold the processed PUSHBUTTON value like
DATA v_flag TYPE flag.
The PUSHBUTTON will be processed at the event AT SELECTION-SCREEN. So write your code like below
AT SELECTION-SCREEN.
   IF sy-ucomm EQ 'CL1'.
     v_flag = 1.          "Buttob clicked
   ENDIF.
START-OF-SELECTION.
IF v_flag EQ 1.
     NEW-PAGE LINE-SIZE 100.
ENDIF.
OR
The best way of doing this by setting PF-STATUS like
START-OF-SELCTION.
SET PF-STATUS 'ZSTATUS'. "Double click on this and set the pushButton in standard toolbar option and in function key specify the BACK, EXIT and CANCEL button .
Then write your logic at the event AT USER-COMMAND.
AT USER-COMMAND.
   CASE sy-ucomm.
     WHEN 'RED'.
       NEW-PAGE LINE-SIZE 100.
     WHEN 'BACK' OR 'CANCEL' OR 'EXIT'.
       LEAVE SCREEN.
     WHEN OTHERS.
   ENDCASE.

How to add parameters to xml report header

All,
I've added two new parameters to my UUT information dialog (I made my own UUT information dialog) and I'd like to pass them to the header of my xml report. The style sheet I've chosen to use is "report.xsl" and I've already added the two rows to my header; so what I'd like to do is pass these 2 parameters from the PreUUT callback to my report.
First question: Is this possible?
Seconds question: I've struggled finding "reading material" on this topic and am looking for some helpful hints on where to start. To me this doesnt seem like something that should be that difficult, but maybe I'm mistaken?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill
John 3:16

Hi Bill,
In addition to making changes to the style sheet, we must also include the parameters you want to dispaly in the XML file using the ModifyReportHeader Callback. Please refer to this KnowledgeBase article for more information.

How to include wildcard in FTP adapter header variable?

I have two partner links that use FTP adapters. The first one puts a file on the FTP server. It specifies a dynamic outbound file name based upon an input variable and the timestamp in the format "test_BATCHID_yyyyMMddHHmmss.csv" (e.g. test_1011_20050925153059.csv). This part works as expected.
The second partner link is supposed to pick up a file on the same FTP server. This inbound filename will be based upon the outbound filename and another timestamp in a format such as "originalfilename.yyyyMMddHHmmss.txt" (e.g. test_1011_20050925153059.csv.20050926091541.txt). I have created a Transform action with a mapping to convert the outbound filename and assign it to the inbound header variable. It concatenates the outbound filename and ".*.txt" within the mapping. The inbound header shows up as test_1011_20050925153059.csv.*.txt in the audit, but the process hangs at the receive activity and the file never gets retrieved. Perhaps the asterisk is being interpreted literally?
Does anyone know how to specify a wildcard character in an xpath expression in a way that it will be interpreted as a true wildcard? Or is there another way to tell the inbound adapter to look for a dynamic filename using wildcards?

BPEL patch 1 supports performing a synchronous read using a BPEL invoke activity. The following forum post shows how to configure a read adapter manually.
Re: Help! Three questions about FileAdapater.
The subsequent patches of JDeveloper allow such an apdater to be configured automatically.
ps: This adapter can be used to read a single file only i.e. you cannot use a wild character.

How to disable Print button in Report Manager in SSRS 2008

I have a report with long list of columns. Currently we are supporting only excel export and we do not want user to print reports. I know we can disable export options by editing Render extensions in rsreportserver.config. Kindly suggest me how I can stop
user from printing reports.
Thanks.

Please refer the link below:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms155874.aspx
"Report server administrators have the option of disabling the print feature by setting the report server system property
EnableClientPrinting to false. This will disable client-side printing for all reports managed by that server. By default,
EnableClientPrinting is set to true. You can disable client-side printing in the following ways:
Select Enable download for the ActiveX client print control on the Server Properties page in Management Studio. To open Server Properties pages, connect to a report server instance in Management Studio, right-click on the report server node,
and select Properties.
Write script or code that sets the report server system property EnableClientPrinting to
false."
Thanks, Michael Mei
Is there a way to enable or disable printing and export facility in the client based on report server roles. In our case some group of users only needs read access and so we want to prohibit export and print facility.

How to include images in BAM reports

Hi all,
In Oracle 11g BAM , i can see some already existing Demo reports, i the Active Studio.
in that demo reports i can see a report called SLA Violation.Here in this SLA Vioaltion report there is Updating Orderded list within the list they are showing some images .
can some one help me how to add images like that..? or tell me the steps..
i tried creating the similar updating ordered list in my sample report and gave the image links gived in that demo report
" _switch({Process Due Soon SLA}) case(true):(<img src='../Images/TradeSubmitted.png'/>Submitted) default( <img src='../Images/TradeFine.png'/>Fine")_but in the updated ordering list instead of the image im getting entries like this " ):(<img src='../Images/TradeSubmitted.png'/><span style='padding"
Any suggestions on this is Really appreciated..
TIA,
Karthik

Hi,
I have used four different ways to display images in my applications depending on which method is the fastest to refresh.
1. Under Application Attributes > Edit Standard Attributes > Substitutions enter your substitution string (MY_IMAGE_URL) and substitution value(http://somewhere/img)
and then in the region or template use the following syntax &MY_IMAGE_URL. in your html tags eg. img src="&MY_IMAGE_URL./banner.png" width="x" height="x">)
I have found this the best for image refresh speed, especially if the image is already cached.
2. Load your image up into Apex and don't associate it with any application and use the following tag img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#banner.png" width="x" height="x" alt="">
Good for development as all images not associated to an application are available.
3. Load your image up into Apex and associate it with an application and use the following tag img src="#APP_IMAGES#banner.png" width="x" height="x" alt="">
This can be a pain during development when your application numbers continually change.
4. Use standard http address <img src="http://somewhere/banner.png" width="x" height="x">
