How to pass parameters to reports

Hi,
I am a new user to dev2000, i am struck at passing parameters to the reports, i have used lexical referrences, to the where clause, in the query that i have written in reports builder. It created a user_parameter of that where_clause. now i am trying to pass this parameter, from the form to generate a report btw'n dates. please sugest me if there is any other way, or correct me if i am on the right path, here is the code that i am calling from the form.
DECLARE
pl_id ParamList;
--repid REPORT_OBJECT;
--v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
BEGIN
pl_id := Get_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
IF NOT Id_Null(pl_id) THEN
Destroy_Parameter_List( pl_id );
END IF;
pl_id := Create_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
Add_Parameter(pl_id, 'WHERE_CLAUSE', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'WHERE SYS_DATE = ''18-JUL-01''');
--repid := find_report_object('report34');
--v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
Run_Product(REPORTS, 'REPORT34', ASYNCHRONOUS, BATCH,
FILESYSTEM, pl_id,NULL);
END ;
I am gettting an error saying FRM-41211: Integration error:ssl failure running another product.
this error is comming when i try to access for the first time, and
Starting report REPORT34 [Tue Jul 24 16:35:14 2001] ...
REP-0110: Unable to open file 'REPORT34'.
REP-1070: Error while opening or saving a document.
REP-0110: Unable to open file 'REPORT34'.
End report REPORT34 [Tue Jul 24 16:35:20 2001].
this for the next time, with out closing runtime env.
If i have to use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT how can i pass parameters to reports.
Another thing i encountered is when i am using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT which is working it shows me the parameter form of the reports and when i click on run report, it is just creating a file under forms directory and asking each time when i run report wether to replace it or not and from where it is calling the printer object and actually nothing is being printed, and every thing is fine with the printer and it is not showing the report out put and it shows end of report in the log file of the background report product.

For your 1st problem it seems to be a bug in Forms 6i - you can visit this site:
http://pipetalk.revealnet.com/~plsql/
and find there 41211.

How to pass parameters from report to graph

I am trying to call an existing chart from Reports60.
I figured out that only CHAR and NUMBER parameters can be passed. The mychart.ogr executable works fine from command line with parameters passing.
Now I'm trying to pass parameter to Graphic Display, for that I associated Report Column/Parameter with Chart Parameter. (set parameter/column property).
It's not working.. I'm getting Graph for the initial values parameters which are in the chart. Seems like there are no parameter value passing from reports to graph.
Are there any tricks to pass value for the CHAR parameter?
Thanks in advance for the help,
Helen

Passing parameters to report from current form

Hi all!
I have a problem with parameter passing from form to report. I want to display the report with the current customer id and current product id from the form. But my problem is I don't know how to pass parameters from form to report. I am a new user of oracle applications. If any one can help me, please tell me step by step what I should do because I am so new with oracle developer.
Thanks.
Sonia.

Hi,
An easy way to pass the parameters to the report from the form.
In the trigger from where u are calling the report you can write a short code there to pass on the parameters you want in the report.
declare
pl_id ParamList;
BEGIN
pl_id := Get_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
IF NOT Id_Null(pl_id) THEN
Destroy_Parameter_List( pl_id );
END IF;
pl_id := Create_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'PARAM1',TEXT_PARAMETER,:FORM_ITEM1);
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'PARAM2',TEXT_PARAMETER,:FORM_ITEM2);
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'PARAM3',TEXT_PARAMETER,:FORM_ITEM3);
Run_Product(REPORTS,'C:\UR.RDF',(SYNCHRONOUS or ASYNCHRONOUS), RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM, pl_id);
END;
For this there is an assumption that in your report you have created, 'PARAM1', 'PARAM2', 'PARAM3' as User Parameters in you data model.
I have also just now answered for your problem of setting item properties on select of a value from an LOV. Check that out too.

Passing parameters across reports

Hi,
Anybody knows how to pass parameters from one report to another using drill across reports?
I want to feed parameters of a second report (drill across) with values from parameters from a base report where the second report is called.
Is it possible?
Luciano

Hi,
I don't found a way to pass parameters between reports with Drill Across feature.
But I can do that using report actions (inserting a button in the view or report) instead of Drilling Across.
I would like Oracle develop these two functionalities:
1) Allow passing parameters between reports with Drill Across (today I can only pass fields to prompts);
2) Allow replacing a view with a report using report actions - as mentioned (today I can only open the report in a new window).
This two functionalities are complementary.

Form Personalization - Custom Function - How to pass parameters?

Hi,
My requirement is to call a custom mod pl/sql program (html page) from purchasing when the "approve" button is pressed. I have it working, but don't know how to pass parameters to my function.
I have my function defined and registered. In the definition under "Web HTML" tab, I have my pl/sql procedure call under "HTML Call". Where do the parameters go?
On the customization of form POXPOEPO, I am using Builtin - Launch a function. I want to pass the po_header_id, so under "Parameters", I did "Insert Item Value" of :PO_HEADERS.PO_HEADER_ID
My custom HMTL page is popping up, but the parameter is not being passed. Is there something in the Function Definition where I can define the incoming paramaters?
Thanks.

Passing parameters from report to new page with portlets.

Hello everyone:
I have a plsql report portlet on a page that has a column that I would like to pass as a parameter to a new page to populate more portlets. I tried setting up a link but I can't seem to get the value in the column to pass as the parameter. I am a novice when it comes to developing portlets.
Thanks in advance!

The link is the way to go (at first). You have to create the link first. Then assign this link to the column that you want to the hyperlink to appear on - this assignment happens on the 2nd tab of the report (Column formatting) by choosing the newly created link in the link dropdown. After you have assigned the link to the column you must edit the assigned link where you can then choose the value that must be passed across.
The link approach works fine, but there are limitations. I just do all the links in code these days - so in the report select statement I have <a href....>. This gives more flexibility. Ultimately there is the issue of passing parameters to forms: using links (or hand coded) you can pass parameters to reports (if param is also defined as input param with ":") and also forms, but all you can do with a form is to pass param that can be used to uniqeuly identify one record which is the one that will show in the form. Anything else (e.g. pass a param to prepopulate a field on the form) needs an even more complicated solution (:).
Cheers.

How to pass parameters between two xterm windows?

Hi,
I would like to know how to pass parameters between two xterm windows where there are two independence processes running on them respectively ? Would appreciate if any one out there can advise me . Thanks.

Global variables can be used, but you can do what the online help
says ...
Parameters are passed to called forms by means of a parameter
list. A parameter list is a named programmatic construct that is
simply a list of parameter names (called keys) and their values.
You can pass parameter values to forms invoked by the built-in
subprograms CALL_FORM, OPEN_FORM, and NEW_FORM. In addition, you
can pass parameter values to other Oracle tools with the
RUN_PRODUCT procedure.
A parameter you include in a parameter list can be either a text
parameter or a data parameter. The parameter type determines how
its value is interpreted.
Text Parameters The value of a text parameter being passed to a
called product is a CHAR string that can represent the following:
n a user-defined form parameter defined in a form invoked
by the CALL_FORM, OPEN_FORM, or NEW_FORM built-in subprograms
n a command line or user-defined parameter for a product
invoked with the RUN_PRODUCT built-in subprogram
Data Parameters The value of a data parameter being passed to a
called product is always the name of a record group defined in
the current form. (A record group is a data structure that
stores records derived from a query or through programmatic
assignment.) Data parameters are used to pass data to products
invoked with the RUN_PRODUCT built-in subprogram. You cannot
pass data parameters to forms.
The following table shows the structure of a parameter list that
contains four parameters:
Key Paramtype Value
CITY Text_Parameter 'BOGOTA'
CATEGORY Text_Parameter 'EXPORTS'
MULTIPLIER Text_Parameter '.0275'
NEW_DATA Data_Parameter 'RECORD_GROUP8'

Trigger a SQL Reporting Service Data Alert when a SharePoint List is updated & need to pass parameters to report

We have been able to get a SSRS Data Alert to trigger a report to be emailed whenever an item is added to a specific SharePoint List. The report can accept parameters but would like to be able to pass parameters that are used in the report.
Is this possible? (I cross posted over at SharePoint dev. and was referred here)
Thanks
Νικοσ Γιαννιοσ

Hi Nikos,
Based on my understanding, you have deploy a parameter report to SharePoint site, then you have created a data alter for this report. Then you want to pass parameters to report then send alter, right?
In Reporting Services, if the report has parameters, we should select values for the parameter, after report display, we can create a new data alter. Otherwise, the New Data Alter button is grayed out in the drop-down list of the Action button. So that the
rule is created based on the filtered report. Please refer to below screenshot:
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

How to pass parameters to ABAP function in Crystal report

Hi All,
I am creating a Crystal report on top of SAP ECC 6.0. I am trying to call ABAP functions. But I am not able to see an option to pass any parameters to the function.
Can you please help with how to pass a parameter to a ABAP function?
Thanks
Chetan

Hi there,
we thought we found the problem. But the ABAP function is now RFC compatible and i still do not see the export parameters of the ABAP function in Crystal.
Question: The ABAP function does not deliver columns as the result but a table instead. Could this be the problem? Regarding to this we will have to change the output functinality of the ABAP-function to teliver colums instead of a table.
Thanks for your help,

How can I pass parameters from report to HTML page

Hi,
Does any one know how to pass value from Portal Report to other HTML page (asp for excample).

How to pass parameters to concurrent program report from Forms Personalizn

Hi All,
I am trying to run a report from a menu entry in the AP Invoice entry form. For this I have done the necessary steps of creating the menu entry and am assigning the values for the 2 parameters to a global variable and then launching SRS form.
In SRS form created an action to assign the global variable value to work_order.parameters. I can invoke the SRS OK except that my 2 parameter values appear concatenated in the first parameter itself and are not getting assigned to each of them seperately.
my global variable assignment is as follows :
=${item.inv_sum_folder.vendor_name.value}||'.'||${item.inv_sum_folder.vendor_site_code.value}
and my work_order.parameters value assignment is as follows :
=select nvl(${global.kmg_invalid_po_gv.value}, ${item.work_order.parameters.value}) from dual
It passes parameters OK if i replace custom report with standard AP report. I also made my parameters to be free text (17 character value set) to not validate input, but still no joy.
Any ideas why this is not working ?
Thanks in advance.

As Francois said in his answer:
e.g.:Form A call FORM B
In form A (Button's or menu's Trigger code)
DECLARE
param_list_id ParamList;
BEGIN
param_list_id := GET_PARAMETER_LIST('EMPNO');
IF NOT ID_NULL(param_list_id) THEN
DESTROY_PARAMETER_LIST(param_list_id);
END IF;
param_list_id := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('empno');
ADD_PARAMETER(param_list_id, 'EMPNO', TEXT_PARAMETER, EMPNO);
CALL_FORM ( 'FORM B.FMX',HIDE,DO_replace,NO_QUERY_ONLY,param_list_id);and in FORM B create a parameter EMPNO (e.g.: varchar2) in node tree(parameter) and at Form level (e.g. WHEN NEW FORM INSTANCE read parameter-

How to pass parameters from Forms to Reports

dear all,
i'm running a report from a form using run_product(), now i want
to pass a parameter from a form to report, say i want to display
all the employees of deptno=10, so what parameter should i give
in run_product() and what modifications should i make in the
report???
thanks and regards
Tariq.

Yeah,
You can pass parameters to from form to report using
Parameter list. E.g. You want to display all employees of Dept
10.
1. Create report with one user paramter say p_dept
2. Now Using Parameter list and Run Product you can call report,
see following procedure.
/* This Procedure passes department number as a paramter to
Report and displays Report.
Author - Mr. Adinath R. Kamode
Parameter - Deptname (p_dept)
PROCEDURE CALL_REPORT (V_DEPT IN NUMBER)
          V_PLIST          PARAMLIST;               -
- Parameter List and Name
          V_PLISTNAME           VARCHAR2
(30) := 'RPTLIST';
BEGIN
-- Check existance of Parameter List
          V_PLIST := GET_PARAMETER_LIST(V_PLISTNAME);
          IF ID_NULL (V_PLIST) THEN
               V_PLIST := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST
(V_PLISTNAME);
               IF ID_NULL (V_PLIST) THEN
                         MESSAGE('Error in
creating parameter list.');
                         MESSAGE('.');
                         RAISE
FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE;
               END IF;
-- Add parameter data , name must be same as in Report
     ADD_PARAMETER(V_PLIST,'P_DEPT',TEXT_PARAMETER,TO_CHAR
(V_DEPT));
-- Don't display parameter Form
     ADD_PARAMETER(V_PLIST,'PARAMFORM',TEXT_PARAMETER,'NO');
RUN_PRODUCT
(REPORTS,'DEPT.RDF',ASYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,V_PLIST,NULL)
ELSE
          DESTROY_PARAMETER_LIST(V_PLIST);
END IF;
