How to pass hidden values to a report using reports6i

Hi,
I have created a fully running report
and calling this report from a java based application. Now i wish to write a query
which will filter the data on the basis of user id sent by java based application. This value can be in session or cookie. I need to send this value as a hidden variable and use this in the data model to write a query. Is this possible using reports 6i.

Shailesh,
Is is necessary to send the parameter hidden? You can use the cgicmd.dat file to put all the parameter in and on the url specify the key within the cgicmd.dat file. If you have a set of know values this might work, but if you are reacting to the parameter to create what is being used in the report it might be difficult. For more information on the cgicmd.dat file see the manual "Deploying Applications to the Web" at http://www.oracle.com/pls/use/use_asset_html.download_asset_form?p_user_id=100&p_asset_id=110924&p_url=http://technet.oracle.com/doc/dev2k.210/guide21/d2k_web.htm&p_queryid=2184408
Hope this helps a little.

  • How to pass the value from Sub report to main report

    I have un report(mainreport) within a subreport(subreport).
    With reporting services, how to pass the value from Sub report to main report?
    thanks

    Hi Alebet,
    With reporting services to pass values from sub report in to main report is not supported directly.
    But there are some workarounds through which you can get this .
    There are two ways to get this.
    1- Put your sub report query into some table. i mean to say through the subreport query get some temporary table.
    2- Using this temporary tables data write some Scala function in the data base.
    3- Now in your main report query return this scala function as a column.
    4- Extract the column value where ever you want in your main report which is getting calculated from the subreport query. so you will be getting the values returned from the subreport in the main report.
    This will definitely work fine as i have done some report in this way.
    Another way of doing is that
    1- prepare another data set with the same query as in sub report in the data tab.
    2- then refer this 2nd dataset in your main report .
    But better way will be the top one.
    Anyway please let me know if you get the solution.
    Thanks

  • How to pass a value from the report to a form ( BIT OF URGENT ).

    Hi,
    I had created a "Form on a Table with Report" on the report I had remove the edit link and set one of the column feilds that functionality. Now I want to know how to pass that value that is clicked ( having hyper link ) on to the form where it runs a SQL query and then displays the reuslts on the form.
    Illustrating with an example.
    I am having these following columns on the report ( these are the results for the join statement )
    JOBNUM JOBNAME DEPTNUMBER SAL EMPNO LNAME FNAME
    In the above JOBNUM is having Hyper link as I removed the edit image.
    Now this is area I am having problem. When the user clicked on the JOBNUM then on form it should display 20 other columns( pulled from 5 other tables ) which are related to that particualr JOBNUM.
    Anybody give me a solution in which area I have to include my SQL statement and how to pass that selected value to that SQL statement.
    Cheers,
    Krishna

    Hi Ron,
    I am doing exaclty what you have suggested me but no luck. I started changing the DEMO_CUSTOMERS application to my requirements.The report is working fine and on the report I have created a page attribute to the Hyper linked column and linked that to the page 2 and assign that attribute with #JOBNUM#.
    I am able to pass that value on to form when I click on the JOBNUM. But the problem is I am not able to pass that value into the SQL query so that my query pulls 20+ columns on to the Form ( which is second page ).
    Small clarification... On the form region it is said FORM NAME and type is HTML is that is the way the APEX was designed or does it need to say region type as FORM.
    Thanks for your help in advance.
    Cheers,
    Krishna.

  • How to pass hidden user/passwd to report?

    Hi,
    Running reports in the Web is there a way to pass hidden user/passwd to report without using the map file?

    No, you either have to have the details in the map file or the URL itself. There's no other way to hide the username/password.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi Try this.
    Create a formula like this in subreport1 (from the report where you want to pass your value)
    Whileprintingrecrods;

    Then go to 2nd sub report and Create a formula like this

    Note :Your sub report1 should execute before sub report2 .That means sub report1 should be in the above section of sub report2

    Can you clarify your scenario? Which is the case you're talking about?
    1) You want to pass a parameter from OmniPortlet to a PL/SQL procedure.
    2) You want to pass a parameter from a PL/SQL procedure to OmniPortlet.
    In both cases the most obvious way of doing it is through request (URL) parameters.
    Render a link in your portlet (either in OmniPortlet or using PL/SQL) that invokes a portal page, containing the other portlet.
    Both OmniPortlet and PL/SQL allow you to wire and access page parameters.
    Take a look at the Using Parameter and Events section of the Portal User's Guide and the Parameters and Events section of the Portal Developer's Guide.
    Hope this helps,

  • How to pass the values to stored proc using presentation variable in OBIEE

    Need your help regarding in resolving an issue in OBIEE 10.1.3.4.1
    There are 6 reports say ‘A’,’B’,’C’,’D’,’E’,’F’ in the same subject area.
    The reports are being configured with prompts using either the repository/presentation variables.
    One of the reports say ‘A’ has been configured to pass the values using presentation variables from the prompt in Advanced Tab of the report request to the stored procedure defined in the Execute Before Query section of the connection pool.
    After running another report ‘B’ in the same subject area, upon visiting the report ‘A’ view display error is being seen ( Please have a look below screen shot for your reference) .
    Speculate the issue is around presentation variables of report ‘A’ getting initialized even before running the report.
    Appreciate your earliest advise as this is a prod issue.

    Hi Prasad,
    I got your note, you should not use Session variable syntax to call presentation variable.
    you should use like @{AIC_PROJ_PLAT_SEQ_NO}
    One more thing: first test the variable AIC_PROJ_PLAT_SEQ_NO value then try to pass to SP.
    Hope this helps

  • How To pass the value within the page using jsp?

    How to passing the textbox value within the jsp page without using javascript or reload the page.
    I have a scenario like this:
    I have a textbox named as "accno" which allow user to key in the accno. After key in the accno, this accno value will used to do a query from database using jstl.
    here is part of my code
    <input name="accno" type="text" onChange="checkLC()"/>
    <sql:query var="results" dataSource="${db}">
    select accno,name from account where accno = '<%=value get from accno textbox%>'          
    </sql:query>
    <c:out value="${result.rows[0].name}"/>
    note that onChange() is the javascript when user key in accno then automatically go to check database then only show out the name. So how can i get the '<%=value get from accno textbox%>' from accno textbox.

    How to passing the textbox value within the jsp page
    without using javascript or reload the page.No, jsp executes on the remoter server, the text box is on a client machine, you need to send information to the server over the network, http does this with a request, which will reload the page.....................

  • Passing parameter values to another report using URL actions (reportserver)

    Hi guys,
    I have two reports that I link with eachother. For report A - B everything works perfect. When I try to do the same for report B - A it works, but the parameter value is not filled in.
    =Iif(
    Parameters!PAR_LinksEnabled.Value, 
    Globals!ReportServerUrl & "?" & Replace(Globals!ReportServerUrl, "_vti_bin/ReportServer", "")
    & "Reporting/POS Reporting/Reports/POS Report.rdl&POS_ID=" & Parameters!CONNECTION_ID.Value & "&POS_LANG=" & Parameters!POS_LANG.Value & "&PAR_Date=%5BDate invoice%5D.%5BBonus Calendar - Week%5D.%5BBonus

    Nothing
    Even tho I specify the parameter he has to pass through, the report opens with parameter period : <select a value>. Anyone has an idea why such behaviour happens?
    Thanks!

    Hi Yvanlathem,
    Per my understanding that you want to use the expression above to conditional add the hyperlink to pass the value to the parameter of anpother rreport via the URL in the SharePoint integrated mode report server, right?
    I have check the expression you have provided and the issue can be caused by the wrong way you have write the expression to pass the parameter, please check detais information below to make sure you have pass parameter in the URL correctly:
    Please modify the expression to below structure :
     =Iif( Parameters!PAR_LinksEnabled.Value="Enabled", "URL",Nothing)
    I saw you have use expression like "&POS_ID=" & Parameters!CONNECTION_ID.Value & "" which is incorrect, we need to set a report parameter within a URL, use the following syntax:
     parameter=value(not Value=Parameter)
    If you are using the following syntax like "Parameter1=Parameter2", both parameters and from different report, if you have add the "Go to URL" action from  report2 to Report1, please make sure Parameter1 is from the Report1
    and Parameter2 is from Report2, change the order will not work
    More detail information:
    Pass a Report Parameter Within a URL
    So, In your scenario, please make sure the value is from one report's field (POS_ID) and the the parameter(CONNECTION_ID) is from another report (e.g:"&CONNECTION_ID=" &Fields!POS_ID.Value &"")

  • How to passing lowercase values to RFC/BAPI using webdynpro for JAVA

    Hi Exerts,
    When we sending values to RFC/BAPI through webdynpro (JAVA), the values are sent in capital (uppercase) letters to ECC.
    So if we fill xxxx, it is send like XXXX. Why? and how to avoid this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Joeri

    Hi,
    There could be two possibility if you are storing this value in ABAP table.
    1. You are entering value in UPPERCASE in your webdynpro application.
    2. The data stored in ABAP table, converts value in small to upper case.
    1.  Can you tell me how you are passing this value, is user entering value in some input field which is binded to some context and this value are you passing to RFC/BAPI...???
    Or else before passing value to RFC/BAPI you can use toLowerCase string function and the npass this value to RFC/BAPI
    e.g String name = wdContext().currentContextelement().getName().toLowercase();
    Now pass this name to RFC/BAPI is should go as lowercase only..
    This is from webdynpro java side..
    2. If you are storing this value in ABAP table, check the domain/type of variable in ABAP table for which you are storing the value. Ask ABAPper, so that this value are stored in small case letter.
    There is one tick in domain which you need to remove so that it stores in lower case. I dont have exact information but you can consult this with ABAPer.
    Hope this information helps guy ..!!!!

  • SSRS How to pass a value for Hidden parameter ?

    Hello,
    I have a SSRS report deployed on the Report server. This report is having an "Hidden" parameter.
    Could someone please guide me, how to pass the value to this internal parameter in each of the following case - 
    1. Report is accessed through a Desktop application/Web application in Report Viewer.
    2. Report is accessed through the Url.
    3. Report is accessed through the Report Manager.
    Any quick help on this is highly appreciated.

    Hi Vinay Pugalia,
    Internal Parameters in SSRS are parameters that are not configurable by the end-user at run-time and values cannot be passed to this type of parameter (when present in the child report) in case of a drill-through report implementation. This
    type of parameter is read-only and not accessible in parent report.
    This varies from a Hidden Parameter, which the user is not prompted to provide, but can still be configured through the URL to the report server.
    So no matter you access the report through report manager, URL or Report Viewer. The passing value to the internal parameter will not work.
    As you have mentioned that I will also suggest you use the hidden parameter instead.
    More details information in this blog for your reference:

    How to pass value to  hide parameter is the same as that of the visible parameter, similar thread for your reference:
