I want the ebs report to give me an output in Excel

i am a bit new i can only view txt and pdf files as output from my ORACLE ERP.
I am able to change the file in the concurrent request definition window to XML but when i run the report from my HRMS resp. it gives me TAGS and not the output in excel.
Kindly help me with some document so that i can acheive my goal.
thanking you all in advance!

You need to use XML publisher and create a RTF template to format the data in Excel.
Outputting Oracle to Excel is always cumbersome, you can use XML Publisher (BI Publisher), Discoverer and bunch of other tools. The only problem with them is that you have to learn on how to use the specific tool, which often outweighs the benefits. Especially if your users have hard time adopting it.
I have been dealing with this issue for many years in all the places I worked at and finally came up with an approach where you simply paste your query in the standard report definition screen in System Admin and it produces Excel outputs when run. No CSVs, no dumping files into Unix, just click on the report output to have the Excel screen open up with your report in it. The only skill you need to have is writing SQL. Other than that, no development tools are required. To my surprise my latest client migrated from Discoverer to my tool, heh.

  • Want to display report output field as input field

    hi, all.
    In my report i am displaying output field which is blank, i want that field to be converted into input field for the same report.
    Give proper decision ASAP.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sandip Sonar.

    Hi,
    you need to use this following statement, before your write statement, with INPUT ON as per the following syntax.
    FORMAT [COLOR       {{{color [ON]}|OFF}|{= col}}]
           [INTENSIFIED [{ON|OFF}|{= flag}]]
           [INVERSE     [{ON|OFF}|{= flag}]]
           [HOTSPOT     [{ON|OFF}|{= flag}]]
           [INPUT       [{ON|OFF}|{= flag}]]
           [FRAMES      [{ON|OFF}|{= flag}]]
           [RESET].

  • Reports - output to Excel - does not format the "Broken by" rows correctly

    Choosing the "break by" column clause while building one of the
    wizard based reports works great when you are displaying the
    reports in the default HTML mode.
    So, my query actually returns a denormalized return set with
    multiple rows containing the same fields on certain columns.
    This works great with the default format, since the repeated
    fields/rows are nulled and I get a neat report.
    However, the same thing, if I choose to output in excel, I get
    the original denormalized output into the excel document instead
    of the null fields for the duplicate fields/columns
    It looks like it sends the result set directly to the excel
    before allowing the Report UI formatting to take effect. This
    is a big issue for us, since we promised the client that we
    could get them excel outputs easily, when it does not really
    work the way you would expect it.
    Any suggestions ??

  • Oracle Reports 9I generate output in excel

    Report Builder 9.0.4.0.33
    I tried generating output to Excel using 10GR2 Report builder using SPREADSHEET for destype on the web and it works.
    The requirement is for this one customer who is on 9I and they are asking for excel output functiuonality on thier existing reports.
    Does oracle has a patch or any other way to generate the exisitng reports on 91 where we can give them a selection like SPREADSHEET in the parameter screen and it would generate the report in excel.
    Thanks
    I tried by appending below to the url in the before report trigger.
    &mimetype=application/vnd.ms-excel
    which works but, we give other selections to the user too where they can change the desformat to PDF or HTMLCSS...and they all try to open the report output in excel.
    Edited by: Forms_Reports_Beginner on Oct 6, 2009 3:17 PM

    Thank you Lalitk and Dennis,
    My team mate wrote a javascript function on before report trigger that checks the paramter selection for desformat and append the mimetype accordingly.Hence, able to achieve the functionality.
    Thanks.

  • I want a report which gives leave approver for an employee

    HI All,
    Please help in this issue
    I want a report which gives leave approver for an employee.
    Thanks,
    Guddia

    Hi
    The report to get the leave approver is 'RPTARQ'.
    Enter the personnel no and the application ID which can be 'ESS_LR' and execute.
    Also, you may determine the same without using the report as a whole.
    Check the MSTBR field of the table PA0001 of the corresponding PERNR and you will get the supervisor of the employee who generally is the leave approver.
    Hope this helps.

  • In FBL5N report user wants the sales document number to be displayed,

    HI, Guys
    Need ur help to sort out the problem
    In FBL5N report user wants the sales document number to be displayed,
    but the sales ducument number column is coming blank and this needs to pick from VBRP table
    As I discussed with Abaper, he reqiures a key field which common in BSEG abd VBRP table
    So,Please guide me in approaching the right way
    Munender

    Hi,
        Speak with your SD consultant. They can set up the copy control in SD so that the sales order is populated in the invoice in field ZUONR (Assignment).This will then copy to the assignment field in accounting.
    Alternatively you can use an exit to populate another field during the Posting.
    Kind regards

  • Someone used my email address to create an apple id. I changed the password because it is freaking me out. I want to report it to Apple but dont know how to go about it. I want the Apple ID deleted. How do I go about that?

    Someone used my email address to create an Apple ID. I logged in to appleid.apple.com and I changed the password because it is freaking me out. I want to report it to Apple but dont know how to go about it. I want the Apple ID deleted. How do I go about that? Is there also a way to ensure that the email address wont be used again by this person to create another Apple ID?
    This is compounded actually by a Gmail issue. I have had this email address for ages, since the start of the beta. But lately in the last year or so, I am getting mail that seems to be intended for other people but it is using my email address. It is probably one of them who created the Apple ID.

  • Ondemand subreport or a drilldown, I want the content to appear in the same tab that is in the main report

    <p><strong>When I click on the ondemand subreport or a drilldown, I want the content to appear in the same tab that is in the main report itself. How to make this work?

    I fixed this problem. It was pretty easy.
    First, in the address bar, type in " about:config " .
    When it asks if you are sure about making changes & it may void the warranty, click "yes--I promise I'll be careful" or something along those lines. (I heard there is no warranty, & it's just a joke)
    Once you get to the new screen, find " browser.link.open_newwindow "
    You will see the # 3 on the same line. Change that value to 1.
    Wah-la! :)

  • Parameter Form not calling the Main report - Gives REP-0110, REP-1070, REP-0110 error

    I am using run_report_object to call a report in which the user has to input some paramters. I have followed the instructions as in the Oracle White paper document on Forms/Reports integration.
    The paramter report does come up but when I hit the submit button, I get an error
    REP-0110: Unable to open file 'rclug005'.
    REP-1070: Error while opening or saving a document.
    REP-0110: Unable to open file 'rclug005
    I've checked the privileges and everything's fine on that front. Also, I can get to open the report with the web.show document built-in with paramform setting = No.
    I am guessing something's wrong with the html constructed in the parameter form which is,
    <form method=post action="http://myserver/dev60cgi/RWCGI60.EXE?">
    <input name="hidden_run_parameters" type=hidden value="server=myserver &report=rclug005&destype=Cache&desformat=html&userid=uid/pwd@test">
    In the Report Before Form trigger, I've copied the foll. html code from the Oracle White paper,
    vc_parameter_form :=
    '<html><body bgclor="ffffff"><form method=post action="'||:p_action||'">'||
    '<input name="hidden_run_parameters" type=hidden
    value= "'||vc_hidden_runtime_values||'">'||'<center><p>
    <table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0><tr><td>
    <input type=submit></td><td> width=15
    <td><input type=reset></td></tr></table><p><hr></p>';
    I've set the :p_action parameter to a value of http://myserver/dev60cgi/RWCGI60.EXE?
    Also, In the end of the report before form trigger I added this
    srw.set_before_form_html(srw.text_escape, vc_parameter_form);
    Any help/tips is appreciated & Thanks.

    Thanks Danny,
    I am building the variable exactly as in the White paper in the "before form" trigger using exactly the same values give there.
    vc_hidden_runtime_values := 'server='||:p_servername||'&report='||vc_report_name||'.rep&destype='||:destype||'&desformat='||:desformat||'&userid='||:p_userinfo;
    My report has some extra parameters too it expects. So do I have to include the names of those parameters too in the string above?
    For example, in my report a user parameter is named 'print_date', which I do see and populate with value in the parameter form, then do I have to build that in the vc_hidden_runtime_values string above.
    I am using Report 6.0.8.11.3 on 9iAS.

  • I want the create this report but how to???????????????????????????????

    I'm created my oracle10g database with oracle XE databaselink and create view on XE for my customer report. And then create simple report. Everythings ok but when I push the run report report came with all data but I don't want to when push the run button. I want to run and then write customer ID and then push the GO button and then only came to 1 data or info. Can I do this and how???
    Help me please, I'm working about this a few days but I can't do anything :(((
    This is so important for me, help me please...

    Hi,
    OK
    Assuming you are using Page 1 for the report, do the following:
    1 - Create a new HTML Region called "Search" and put this above your report on the page layout
    2 - Add a normal Text item called "P1_CUSTOMER_ID" into the new region - this will be where your user enters in the CUSTOMER_ID value that they want the report to filter by
    3 - Add a Hidden Item called "P1_DISPLAY" into the new region. Set the Default Value for this item to N. If this is 'Y', the report will be shown - if this is 'N' the report is hidden
    4 - Add a button called "P1_SEARCH" into the new region
    5 - Add a button called "P1_RESET" into the new region
    6 - Update your SQL statement to include a WHERE clause:
    SELECT ....
    FROM ....
    WHERE CUSTOMER_ID = :P1_CUSTOMER_ID
    (you may have to do TO_NUMBER(:P1_CUSTOMER_ID) if your CUSTOMER_ID field is numeric)
    7 - Add a branch to the page that branches to Page 1 and sets P1_DISPLAY to Y. Set this branch to be run only when the P1_SEARCH button is clicked
    8 - Add another branch to the page that branches to Page 1 and sets P1_DISPLAY to N. Ensure that this has a higher sequence number than the first branch
    9 - Finally, add a Conditional Display to the report region. Set the Condition Type to "Value of Item in Expression 1 = Expression 2". Enter P1_DISPLAY into Expression 1 and Y into Expression 2

  • I want to factory reset my macbook pro but my computer doesn't give me the recovery option, it gives me Macintosh HD only.

    I want to factory reset my macbook pro but my computer doesn't give me the recovery option, it gives me Macintosh HD only.

    Hello sallay Amir,
    Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you would like to erase your MacBook Pro and install a new copy of OS X, but the Mac does not boot to OS X Recovery when you hold the Command + R keys during startup.
    If your Mac came with OS X Snow Leopard (10.6) or earlier, I recommend referring to the steps in this article:
    Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard: How to Erase and Install - Apple Support
    For a newer Mac (OS X Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite), try reinstalling OS X by using Internet Recovery, as described in the "OS X Internet Recovery" section on this page:
    OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support
    All the best,
    Jeremy
