Hyperlink to another bi publisher report in 10g

I am using Bi Publisher 10g.
I want to build a bi publisher report that makes a link to another bi publisher report. I created a Hyperlink in my template and it works fine, however the url that I am using is the full path to the xdo resource and their parameters, that means my url is http://myserver:myport/xmlpserver/~Myuser/MyReport/MyReport.xdo?parameter1={parameter1}&parameter2={parameter2}. The problem is that I want to call my report from dashboard and then when I follow the link the publisher link is opened and it worked fine but I want to see the output in the same window or other window but I don't want to see the complete Bi Publisher product.
How can I build the hyperlink in order to see the detail report on a new window but without calling the complete Bi Publisher product?
Thanks!
Ramiro Ortiz

Greetings.
Problem solved. I just added the following parameter _xpt=1 to my hyperlink.
Thanks anyway

Error after upgrading BI Publisher report from 10g to 11g

Hi All,
I have migrated the BI Publisher from 10g to 11g. The upgrade was done using the upgrade assistant and the installation process was a success.
However whenever I try to access the reports in 11g after migration I get the following error:
oracle.xdo.servlet.CreateException: Data Model definition not found:/dlypurge.xdm.
I have tried modifying the .xdo to include the following:
<dataModel url="/RMS/dlypurge/dlypurge.xdm"/> where dlypurge is one of the reports. However in the BI Publisher does not seem to access the latest .xdo file.
Any suggestions on how to rectify the error.

Integrating Dashboard / Publisher report into another application

Hi,
We do have a requirement in one of our applications, which is on Tomcat server. Where in we need to integrate an existing Dashboard and Publisher report to this application.
And it should not be through GO URL, where i need to specify the username & password and presentation services tries to create new session each time the page is called.
Hope some one helps in guiding us to achieve this.
Thanks in Advance

Vaidya,
Let me rephrase what you are looking for...
1. You dont want to embed the Webdynpro link into the template but would rather embed it as an object
2. You want to run the web dynpro when the WAD page is launched...
This is for 7.0 right..?
As for embedding the web dynpro as an object as opposed to a link ...? any reasons why - is it because you dont want users to see the link in the HTML source ...?
Even if they do - I am not sure how web dynpros work ( rusty on that front ) but then you should get a session ID when you launch the web dynpro right ..? which would obviate any reasons for the users to see the link
Possibly have it included as a button using Javascript ..?
If you want the webdynpro to launch when the WAD runs - then you could have an onload function in javascript that can do the same....

Add publisher report to dashboard

Hi all
in 10g there was an option to add a BI publisher report to a dashboard.
I do not see that link in 11g. Does anybody know if this is still possilbe?
I want to try and click on a id number in one dashboard tab and have it link to a publisher report that accepts the parameter in another tab.
Currently i have set up a dashboard prompt that sets a presentation variable. This PV is the same name as the parameter in the publisher report.
Having trouble getting this going. Has anybody seen a good link / tutorial on how to integrate these two in 11g?
Thanks

Thank you! it is what i was looking for.
Reading through the docs it appears that when I should be able to see my publisher reports in the catalog view.
when i log in to OBIEE i only see the analysis that I created in OBIEE under the catalog tree.
I have to log into publisher to see my publisher reports.
According to the docs i should be able to see my publisher reports in the catalog view. And then just drag and drop one.
Any idea how I can see the publisher reports when I log into Business Intelligence??
Thanks

XML Publisher Report Output

Hi,
For one of our XML Publisher report, the output is varying from one instance to another. The data output is same.
There are nine records that need to be displayed.
In the first instance, all the nine records are being displayed in the first page.
In the second instance, eight records are being displayed in the first page and the last record is being displayed in the next page.
Please let me know what could be the cause/resolution for this issue.
Thanks,
Krishna

before all you need to check version of publisher with patches
Liviu Iliescu-Oracle how data source can impact to output in this case ?
OP said
The data output is same.

11i EBS XML Publisher Report with Multiple Data Source

I need to create XML Publisher report in 11i EBS pulling data from another 10.7 EBS Instance as well as 11i EBS in single report.
I am not allowed to create extract or use db links.
My problem is how to create Data Source Connection using Java Concurrent Program.
The approach I am trying is
1. create Java concurrent program to establish connection to 10.7 instance.
2. Will write the SQL queries in Data Tempalete with 2 Data Source 1 for 11i EBS and 2 for 10.7 EBS
3. Template will show the data from both query in 1 report..
Is there any other way to proceed using datasource API...
thanks

option1:
The query should be same @ detail level, only the template has to be different for summary and details.
@runtime, user can choose to see the detail/summary
Disadvantage, if the data is huge,
advantage , only one report.
option2:
create two separate reports summary and details
and create diff data and diff layout and keep it as different report
Advantage, query will perform based on the user run report, summary/detail, so that you can write efficient query.
Dis advantage , two reports query/template to be maintained.

How to show the Dashboard Filter Promts in a BI Publisher report?

Hi,
I have a problem when trying to pass Dashboard Prompt Filters from OBI Analysis to a Publisher Report?
Im working in OBIEE 11g. Where I simply can integrate the BI publisher to show the same result set as shown in the Analysis (Answers) Report.
I have also created dummy tables in my Analysis Report that shows the presentation variables from the prompts and I have also one dummy table that shows a session variable with a String when the DW was updated.
I use these dummy tables to be able to pass the promt values to BI Publisher.
The problem I have is that...
I can see that the Strings I have Prompted in my Analysis Report, but only the default values are shown in my BIP report.
-It works fine with my session variable that I display as a string in a dummy table as well as in the BIP report.
-Is there any other way to show the prompted Filters as information in a BI Publisher report??????
Thanks,
Ken

Is there a reason why you don't use the presentation variables directly to filter the BI publisher report?
If you use the presentation variables, then ensure that the presentation variables associated with the prompt exactly matches the BIP report parameter name. In this case, you can create another datamodel with a sql that selects the parameters. for example: select :param1, :param2 from dual. In that case, the xml will include the parameter values and you should be just able to insert the param fields in the template.
Thanks!

Report server 6i and Report services 10g

what is the extra features in Report Services 10g which are not available in Report server 6i.
why would we use AS report services 10g rather then report server 6i,and our only requirment is to run oracle report on web which can fulfill with the help of reports server 6i.

There is a long list of new features and I cant put all of them here
You can see docs below
For running on Web 9i, 10g moves to Servlet based architecture (though old cgi mode is available for backward compatibility). Reports behaves as a component in IAS and can be monitored and managed through Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM).

Phone Numbers in BI Publisher report woes

Hi,
I am having the following issue in BI Publisher reports, with phone numbers.
Essentially what happens is that BI Publisher displays the phone number with a string of zeros after it (which is in fact the value stored in the Siebel database).
I wondered if there is a way round this problem?
I'll include some information below about how Siebel handles phone numbers.
How Siebel Handles Phone Numbers:
1) There is List of Values with Type PHONE_FORMAT.
Inside the LOV's is a string of zeros (0) a different number/with/without spaces/ etc defined for each country.
The 'Order' column of the LOV contains the country code.
Next, there is two different scenarios about what will happen to the phone numbers you enter in Siebel:
1) You enter the phone number EXACTLY as specified in the PHONE_FORMAT LOV.
Result:
UI Display:
In the Siebel UI the phone number will be displayed correctly.
For the Object Manager you entered it in, the country code would be trimmed off the front if you entered it.
For other Object Managers, the phone number would be displayed e.g. with +44 before.
Database Level:
The phone number is stored WITHOUT additional zeros after.
BIP report based on the field:
THe BIP report always displays the database value (in this case without zeros).
2) You enter the phone number DIFFERENTLY to as specified in PHONE_FORMAT LOV.
Result:
UI Display:
In the Siebel UI the phone number will be displayed correctly.
For the Object Manager you entered it in, the country code would be trimmed off the front if you entered it.
For other Object Managers, the phone number would be displayed e.g. with +44 before.
Database Level:
The phone number is stored WITH additional zeros after (I guess they represent the formatting in some way).
BIP report based on the field:
The BIP report always displays the database value (in this case with the zeros).
Finally, just to say we work across the whole of Europe, Middle East and Africa which includes a great many different countries.
Each of these countries can have different length phone numbers, and there may be cases were a country has more than 1 number of digits in a phone number.
(So trimming the number is not very helpful)
Does anyone have any experience of getting BI Publisher to display phone numbers 'correctly' or 'how they are displayed in the Siebel UI?'
Any help you can offer would be appreciated.

Please post the details of the application release, database version and OS along with BI Publisher.
Is the issue with all reports or specific one(s) only?
Do you have the patches in the following docs applied?
Overview of Available Update Patches for Oracle BI Publisher Enterprise 10g [ID 797057.1]
Overview of Available Update Patches for Oracle BI Publisher Enterprise 11g [ID 1276869.1]
Overview of Available Patches for Oracle XML Publisher embedded in the Oracle E-Business Suite [ID 1138602.1]

Embedded Attachments in BI Publisher Report

Is it possible to embed attachments (like other Word docs, etc.) into a BI Publisher Report? When viewing the report as PDF for example, the user would be able to double-click the attachment and open it up in the native client. If it is possible, how is this achieved?

look at drill-down report as in example Oracle BI Publisher Consulting: Drill Down to Detail or Another Report

Link to BI Publisher report with parameters

I want to link from one BIP report to another. I have created a BI Publisher report using the Layout Editor. Using the following link, I can connect to the BIP report when directly pasted into the address bar in firefox.
http://xxxxxxxxx/xmlpserver/Sample Reports/Developmment_ML/Report_Fin_Ledger_MN.xdo?_xpf=&_xpt=0&_xdo=%2FSample%20Reports%2FDevelopmment_ML%2FReport_Fin_Ledger_MN.xdo&_xmode=&_paramsCompany=00050&_xt=LO_Fin_Account_Ledger_02&_xf=html&_xautorun=true
Note: I obtained the syntax for this link by viewing the target report and selecting Actions --> Share Report Link
I created a second BI Publisher report using the Layout Editor. Within the Layout Editor, I modify the Properties of one of the fields. In the box next to "URL", I past the same link as above.
However, when I view the report in HTML format, the link truncates anything after the first xdo to only return:
http://xxxxxxxxx/xmlpserver/Sample Reports/Developmment_ML/Report_Fin_Ledger_MN.xdo
As a result it does not pass the parameter value and run the report.
Any assistance would be helpful. Thanks!

Hi,
I found a way to do this using javascript in "HTML Header" in the Page section of an APEX Page
<script type="text/javascript">
function invokeURL()
var parameterId = document.getElementById("P2_PARAMETER").value;
alert ("hello "+objectiveId);
var url =
"http://xxhost:port/xmlpserver/XXFOLDER_NAME/xxxx_test_report2.2/xxxx_test_report2.2.xdo?_xpf=&_xpt=0&_xdo=%2XXXX_XXX%2Fxxxx_test_report2.2%2Fxxxx_test_report2.2.xdo&G_PARAMETER_NAME="+parameterId+"&_xt=defaultlayout&_xf=pdf&_xmode=2";
window.open(url);
</script>
This can invoked in a button by passing "javascript:invokeURL();" to the "Optional URL Redirect" section.
Thanks
Yogi
