How to stop a report from runing before parameters entered

I want to create a report that needs parameters entered first before the report is displayed. I always get the no data before parameters are entered and the actual results wanted are displayed. Do I have to split it into two pages?

Say your query contains 'where deptno = :P1_DEPT'. The user sets this value in a field or LOV and presses the Run Report button. When the page is submitted, P1_DEPT is set in session state to the selected value and the page branches back to itself. Your report region has an 'Item is not null' condition on P1_DEPT. When P1_DEPT has a value the report will run. If the value of P1_DEPT is 10 and there are no matching rows, the report's 'No Data Found' message will show. When you want to link to this report page and have a clean slate, you would clear the page cache in the URL.

  • Paramerterized Interactive Reports - when running or clicking on a specific page how can I stop the report from rendering BEFORE the user enters parameters.

    I wasn't able to display in pic in this post 
    But it would look something like this
    Order type  -ALL- (select list)                GO (button)
    When I come into this page - the report renders ALL the data because the SQL is as follows
      AND ol.unit_selling_price <> 0
               AND(ordertype.transaction_type_id = :P1_TEXT OR :P1_TEXT IS NULL)
                ORDER BY   3
    Its setup this way because I want all records returned if the user makes no selections BUT CLICKS the "GO" or "SEARCH" button.
    I just don't all records rendered upon initial screen entry and without user having selection options....I.E initiate via a button.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Here is what you can do with out any hidden items.
    on report condition select request = e1
    and enter  GO
    Now when you hit the Go button which actually submits the page to perform the search right?
    Now create a branch and redirect to same page and in REQUEST enter: GO  (But make sure you are selecting when GO button clicked and make it first branch if you have any unconditional branches)
    So the report will be seen by the user only when he hits the GO button from that screen.
    Simple enough right?
    Thanks,

  • Stop the report from firing until the user clicks the Go button?

    Hi All,
    Is there a way to stop the report from firing until the user clicks the Go button? At the moment it is populating when I open the dashboard page. I found something online that said i could use the Page Options>Save Current Settings> For Others.. but even though i am signed in as an administrator i only see a For Me.. option. Also, even after setting this option i would like to be able to hit the 'Go' button to run the report and have it uncollapse the section. Is this possible?
    Thanks

    Thanks for the replies,
    In my report i am trying to constrain the report to todays data only. However the only prompt i have is for another column. If i place a filter on the date column with Year=0000 it will not change with the prompt selection and so will never return any results. Is there any other way?
    It seems wasteful to fire a request to the database onload of the page. Is there an option to only fire a request what the prompts are entered? I will be using a stored proc which needs parameters to run the request so it would be good to be able to set the report to not run until it has parameters entered
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You can use the Transaction SCC1 to move the data from One Client to Another Client for a Client dependent table.
    The data should be present in a Transport and you can import to Transport to any client using SCC1.
    Contact the Basis team to know how to use SCC1.

  • How to stop Time Machine from backing up Temp Files?

    Hi folks!
    I am trying to find out how to stop Time Machine from constantly backing up 'useless' temporary files accumulated from web browsing? Although I don't change or add large files to my HD, Time Machine backs up hundreds of MBs every hour. Those file amounts make sense when I consider that I browse a lot to YouTube, SoundCloud, etc to watch videos or listen to music - I just don't want them to be backed up.
    Under Time Machine Options I already excluded the following items from backups:
    ~/Library/Caches
    /Library/Caches
    ~/Downloads
    But even though I did this weeks ago, Time Machine stills finds large files to be backed up every hour and my only guess is that I am still missing a location where either Safari or Firefox - the two web browsers I use - store temporary files.
    Can you help?
    Thanks a lot in advance!

    Are you sure you need that? There are no viruses that run on OSX. None. Zip. Zero.
    If you're running Windoze on your Mac, that's the same as running it on a PC, so it needs all the same anti-everything stuff you'd use on a PC.
    There is some "malware," such as Trojans, for Macs, though. But (unlike viruses that can get onto your system without your knowledge), you must approve their installation (via your Admin password) and/or operation (via the "This application was downloaded from the internet ..." prompt).
    Appropriately enough, some of these Trojans are included in pirated versions of Apple software, such as iWork!
    For the gory details, see Thomas Reed's [Mac Virus Guide|http://www.reedcorner.net/thomas/guides/macvirus].
    Thanks a lot again!
    You're quite welcome, and thanks for posting back.

  • How to stop the Dialog from being dragged

    I was hoping that someone could tell me when calling a Dialog from Jframe, a how to stop the Dialog from being dragged
    while a dialog is showing.
    When it is visible I can still click and drag the Dialog
    I want to set it so you can not drag it until the dialog has be closed.

    If you don't have access to the parent frame, a "hack" that usually works:
    Frame frame = Frame.getFrames()[0];
    if (null != frame && frame instanceof JFrame){
    JFrame jf = (JFrame)frame;
    JDialog jd = new JDialog(jf, "title");
    ... code here ...
    As each JFrame (or Frame) is opened, its stored in the array of Frames that you can get. Same thing with Dialog.getDialogs(). Almost always, at least so far for me I've never had this problem, the [0] index is the main window opened, or the parent/top frame. I'd put the check in there to be safe and make sure its a JFrame and usually you'll only have the one JFrame.

    How  to stop  the users from changing User Profile

    Hai,
    It is not possible to restrict SU3 to display, because it has only S_TCODE has the authorization object.
    If you really want to restrict users from changing their profile you have to remove the SU3 access and give SU1 or SU2 which gives access only to Personnel details and Parameters.
    Hope this helps.

    How to stop the Calendar from editing your input?

    I am constantly finding that Calendar Version 8.0 thinks it knows what I want to type but it incorrectly takes numbers and days and times out of my input and changes my appointments. I hate this new supposedly "smart" feature. Even when I edit my event correctly a second or third time it rewrites my input incorrectly again. I have to use my iPhone to override the annoying editing on my mac. I am ready to find a new calendar program unless Apple allows users to input what they want without their information being incorrectly edited.

  • How to stop the dock from showing all hidden images when hiding then showing applications

    How to stop the dock from showing all hidden images when hiding then showing applications

    It's not really something to snap a screen shot of. I believe it would need to be a video clip. For instance, when I am working on multiple images in Photoshop, I often need many images open at the same time, but I only have one image viewable and active. The hero image is active on screen while I hide the other images in the dock by hitting the yellow - button on the images. Then I "Hide" Photoshop to do something in the Finder. When I go back to Photoshop, every image that is hidden in the dock will pop open again in the active window, not just the image I was currently working on. I want these images to stay in the dock until I need them, no matter how many times I Hide the Show Photoshop.

  • How to stop PR creation from PM work order for a particular vendor?

    Hello Experts,
    We have following scenario for breakdown maintenance activities.
    When a machine breaks down, a breakdown order is created in SAP. The external manintenance services are planned in the order. When the order is released, a single PR (with multiple item numbers corresponding to number of services) is created by SAP. The PR has a release strategy. When PR is released, PO is created followed by the SES.
    The practice followed AS -IS for breakdown outside business hours:- If the breakdown happens outside business working hours, the person releasing the PRs is not available & hence PR can not be released resulting in no PO & no subsequent SES.
    In this case, the maintenance is completed by the external agency & the work order is TECO. The next day, TECO is reveresed, new PR is created, released, converted into PO, & then SES.
    TO-BE process:- Client expects that, for certain vendors identified, PR should not get created at all from the breakdown order. (The list of  vendors will be maintained seperately). For these vendors, a framework order will be created at the start of fiscal year & SES will be created as & when required agaainst the framework order.
    My concern is :- How to stop PR creation from PM work order for a particular vendor? OR delete the created PR?
    Highly appreciate your quick response.
    Thank you.

    Dear Amit
    I am giving a different dimension to your question check if it fulfills your requirement -
    As we know Vendor selection comes at a later stage only after your PR creation, approval & RFQ etc. & PR generation from maintaine. order is controllled through control key PM03.  While triggering PR from order you have to specify Material group, Purchase group and vendor. Try to control it through authorisation as all these are authorisation objects. The persons executing breakdown order shall no t be given this authoriations

  • How to invoke crystal reports from Oracle forms 11g R2 along with passing p

    How to invoke crystal reports from Oracle forms 11g R2 along with passing parameter to it.
    how to pass parameters to crystal report, please help.

    how to pass parameters to crystal report, please help.This would entirely depend on crystal reports and you might find informations on crystal reports related communities more likely...I for one have seen crystal reports the last time about 12 years ago. And even back then I simply acknowledged it's existence instead of working with it.
    Maybe crystal reports can be invoked via a URL call which would make it simple as you'd need simply build an URL and show the report using web.show_document. But that's pure speculation. Also you might not be the first with this requirement, so the solution to your problem might be right under your nose and just a little google search away ;)
    cheers
