The code below shows how to display the total number of pages in a report like "Page 1 of 8."  However, it doesn't work if you execute the program as a background jobs.
CODE
" Declare a variable
DATA L_PAGE_COUNT(5) TYPE C.
"  Copy this code to the end of program
"  Page count will be printed on each page here
    WRITE SY-PAGNO TO L_PAGE_COUNT LEFT-JUSTIFIED.
    DO SY-PAGNO TIMES.
        READ LINE 1 OF PAGE SY-INDEX.
        REPLACE '-----' WITH L_PAGE_COUNT INTO SY-LISEL.
        MODIFY CURRENT LINE.
    ENDDO.
TOP-OF-PAGE.
    WRITE: /(70) 'Heading' CENTERED, 70 SY-PAGNO,'of ', '-----'.

  • Warning Msg: Character Mode report is being opened as a Bit-mapped report

    Hi All,
    I am opening a Oracle Standard Report in Oracle Apps "INVISMMX", while opening it shows the below warning message:
    "Character Mode report is being opened as a Bit-mapped report"
    What is the reason for this?
    How can I open this report in ASCII mode itself?
    Thanks,
    Gowri

    I believe Oracle Reports by default will open a report as a bit-mapped report. You can change the poperties of the report to make it a character mode report by:
    1. If this is a new report, in the Object Navigator, click the Reports node,
    then click in the toolbar.
    2. Double-click the properties icon next to the report node to display
    the Property Palette.
    3. Under the report node, set the width and height properties as desired:
    for example, 11 (or 15) width x 8.5 height for landscape or 8.5 width x 11
    (or 15) height for portrait.
    4. Under the Character Mode node:
    a. Set Design In Character Units to Yes.
    b. Set the report width and report height to the appropriate
    character-mode dimensions for the report, such as, 132 (or 180)
    width x 66 height for landscape or 102 width x 85 (or 116) height
    for portrait.
    5. In the Object Navigator, expand the Data Model node, then the System
    Parameters node.
    6. Double-click the MODE properties icon to display the Property Palette.
    7. Under the Parameter node, set the initial value for property to Character.
    8. In the Object Navigator, double-click on the Layout Model node icon.
    9. In the Layout Model view, choose FormatLayout OptionsRulers to display
    the Ruler Settings dialog box.
    10. Set Units to Character Cells and Number of Snap Points Per Grid Spacing
    to 1. Click OK.
    11. Click View in the menu bar and make sure that Snap to Grid is checked.
    12. Choose Tools Preferences to display the Preferences dialog box.
    13. On the Preferences page, set Horizontal Interfield to 1 and Vertical
    Interfield to 0. Click OK.
    14. Choose Format Font, and select the font, style, and size that most
    closely approximates the character-mode font (such as, Courier,
    Regular, 12 point).

  • How to show muliti language data correctly using webi reports

    Hi ,
    Can you please suggest me how to show multi language data correctly in webi reports .
    Do we need to install any lang pack in both server and client machine ?
    Thanks & Regards
    Venkat

    you mean using translation manager? or data from DB? or both.
    You need to make sure that your DB is already configured for multiple languages.
    Enable the OS for multi languages
    On XIR3.1, you will need to install language packs on the processing servers.  then you can utilize translation manager.
    Installation of Language Packs are a pain to install and update.

    I'm sure it exists. If the data model uses a lot of lexical parameters, it may be confusing to figure out where the data comes from. Without any more information on your report, it is impossible to tell.

  • Character mode Report in Landscape Format

    Hi All,
    I want to print my character mode report in landscape format. But I am not getting it. Everytime I get print as Portrait. I am printing from live previewer of report builder.
    I am using Oracle 9i and Report builder 6i (6.0.8.11.3).
    I have done following settings:
    System Parameter ORIENTATION=Landscape
    DESFORMAT=DECLAND.PRT (Given by Oracle)
    In the object navigator I have set following properties for Main Section
    Width=11
    Height=8.5
    Orientation=Landscape
    Char Mode Width=132
    Char Mode height=66
    I have done same settings for Header Section and Trailer Section. Please help me.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards

    You will need to edit prt files to add the printer escape sequences to change the page orientation to landscape. Printer escape sequences can be obtained from the printer manual, or the printer vendor.
    For instance, HP printer escape codes can be obtained from the HP website under the printer support links.
    The steps below describe how to print a landscape, character mode report from a Windows NT PC on an HP 4100N Printer. The 4100N is a dual mode printer that can use either PCL or Postscript printer language.
    1. Use a web browser to navigate to the HP website and obtain the printer escape codes for the HP 4100N. If you are unable to locate the HP4100N printer, look for generic PCL information. The HP site also includes detailed information on the printer command syntax.
    2. The HP4100N printer command for landscape page orientation is "ESC&l1O" - where ESC indicates escape, '&' (ampersand) is the parameterized character, 'l'(lower case letter l) is the group character, '1' (number one) is the printer value character and 'O' (upper case letter O) is the termination character.
    NOTE: The HP documentation uses "EC" to signify the escape character.
    It also suggests pressing CTRL and the letter P together, then
    releasing both keys and pressing the ESC key. If this is done in
    a dos editor, a left arrow will actually be displayed on screen.
    This character cannot be interpreted by Oracle Reports and will
    cause printing errors if used in a .prt file. Instead, just use
    the letters "ESC" to indicate that the code that follows is a printer
    escape sequence.
    3. Make a copy of the wide.prt file and rename it to "mywide.prt."
    4. Add the page orientation escapes to mywide.prt file:
    printer "mywide"
    height 66
    width 132
    before report esc "&l1O" *** Puts Page in Landscape Orientation***
    after page control(L)
    after report esc "&l0O" *** Resets page orientation to Portrait ***
    return control(M)
    linefeed control(J)
    SYNTAX NOTES: The escape sequence must be enclosed in double quotes ("). The above comments regarding page orientation are used to clarify where the escape codes gets added, but they should NOT be used when editing
    the actual .prt file.
    5. Save mywide.prt file to the $ORACLE_HOME\report60\printers\ directory.
    6. Go to Windows PC -> Start -> Settings -> Printers and open the properties for the HP printer. Ensure that the option to "Always Spool Raw Data" is checked. This option is usually under the General Printer
    Options, or Spool Options. On Windows NT, you must have Administrator privileges to change this setting.
    7. Test running the report to the printer and specify desformat mywide. It is not necessary to include the file extension (.prt).
    8. The report will now print in landscape orientation.

    Hi,
    This sounds like a similar problem that I had (and still having). It was (is) a Bug. Go to metalink.oracle.com and reference this bug#1413754. See if this is your problem as well. My only work around was change the format of the file instead of using character mode I am now using PDF. Which is working fine for me.
