Inserting a Column on a report

How do I insert a column with fixed contents into a report? I currently have two columns on the report and I'm doing a Union so I need to insert a 3rd column with a fixed text based on the criteria. For example, the inserted column for the first section would say "AAAAAAA", the inserted column for the 2nd section would say "BBBBBBB", etc... How can this be done?

Insert any column into your report and position it where you want your static text column to appear. Click the fx button to edit the column's formula and replace the entire column formula with your desired text enclosed in single quotes.
'AAAAAAA'

There is no "out of the box" solution for this. You'd have to do a bit of work. However, before we go down that road, I'm curious as to why you'd want to put a password field in a tabular form.
It's a multi row insert/update/delete (tabular) form, and one of the columns represents a password.
One row represents "an application". The column represents the application password.
I actually have two of them (columns) + a process that verifies that the same value was entered in both.
I'm suprised that this is not out-of-the box possible...
It would be a very easy to just support the 'password field' type in the dropdown list that I have now used to make it a simple text field. No?
Appreciate any assistance...

I have solved it myself by adding few lines in stored procedure. Would like to share the solution, so that it will be helpful for others.
Open the stored procedure which we are using for the default "List of Incidents" reports.
Add the below under SELECT
SupportGroup = ISNULL(TierQueuesDS.DisplayName, TierQueuesEnum.IncidentTierQueuesValue),
TierQueuesEnum.IncidentTierQueuesId AS TierQueuesId,
Classification = ISNULL(ClassificationDS.DisplayName, ClassificationEnum.IncidentClassificationValue),
ClassificationEnum.IncidentClassificationId AS ClassificationId,
Add the below under FROM
LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.IncidentTierQueuesvw AS TierQueuesEnum
ON TierQueuesEnum.IncidentTierQueuesId = I.TierQueue_IncidentTierQueuesId
LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.DisplayStringDimvw TierQueuesDS
ON TierQueuesEnum.EnumTypeId=TierQueuesDS.BaseManagedEntityId
AND TierQueuesDS.LanguageCode = @LanguageCode
LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.IncidentClassificationvw AS ClassificationEnum
ON ClassificationEnum.IncidentClassificationId = I.Classification_IncidentClassificationId
LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.DisplayStringDimvw ClassificationDS
ON ClassificationEnum.EnumTypeId=ClassificationDS.BaseManagedEntityId
AND ClassificationDS.LanguageCode = @LanguageCode
Then open the report from Report Builder and add new column in the design. Add Support Group and Classification as a column in the report.

Limitation of row and column in FR report

Hi all,
i want to know what is the maximum number of row and column that we can display in FR report.
and is there any possibility to increase the number of row and column in FR reports,if yes then how?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Andy,
I think your asking if this or something similar could be used to go to another page rather than as a popup? The answer is yes. since you have already done the decode in your query, you can just go to the Report Attributes tab (I'm using version 2.2.1.00.04) and click the edit button for the column. Then, you can simply go to the
HTML Expression [Insert column value] text area and insert:
<!--
<b>#A#<b>
This will give you everything that is in the column link section, but I find it easier to work with since it's all together (personal preference).
I reread your post and realized that you wanted to pass the A as a value and not the summary value of the column. I simply removed the #'s. I think this should work. I also kept the summary value using the #A# as the link. I belive that you can copy and paste this into each column (replacing the A with the appropriate column header of course...).
If I were doing this I might create a CASE statement in the query and evaluate for null before creating the link. Here is an example of using that approach:
CASE WHEN "STATUS" = 'U' AND ("CREATEDBY"=:APP_USER OR :APP_USER='MY_USER')
THEN ''
|| '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#edit.gif" border="0" alt="Click here to Edit">'
|| ''
ELSE ''
END LINK,

Implement a normal insert process in an interactive report

Hello,
I want to implement a normal insert process for an interactive report. For which I have created an pl/sql anonymous block with the process. This process will be fired when I click the create button of the New record insert region.
insert into table_name(YR_MO,STATUS,UPDATED_DT,ID) values
(to_char(sysdate,'YYYYMM'),:P1_STATUS,sysdate,:P1_ID);
YR_MO is my primary key column in tha table.
For inserting purposes I have created a separate (New record insert) region, with the items P1_STATUS and P1_ID amd a create button.
Within the interactive report, i have a button Create_New when I click this button the New record insert region should open up and in that region, i have the items P1_STATUS,P1_ID.
My problem is when I click the Create_New button within the interactive report, the records are getting inserted. I dnon't understand what might be the problem, because the insert process should be fired when i click the create button within the New record insert region but it is firing when I click the create_new button.
Can anyone help me out with this issue.
Thanks,
Orton.

Does the insert process fire on a specific request only? And do the two buttons have different request values (names)?

You have to add your key figure first in infocube / and planning level . After this you can insert it in the planning layout in the data column screen. Check that you have inserted also CALQUARTER in the data columns in the first screen of the layout

Inserting single column in crosstab

Post Author: millercepbs
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
Does anyone know of a way to insert only a single column in a crosstab table? Every time I try to insert a column, I get a column added next to each existing column. The problem is, I can't delete a single column either, so I cant add and then delete the extras. I would like to add a single column for things like a sum for each row, but I don't want it next to each column.

The Record Sort Expert appears when you choose the Record Sort Expert command from the Report menu.
Use the Record Sort Expert to define how you want the records in your report to be sorted for printing. You can add and remove a sort field and define the sort direction (ascending or descending) for the data in your report.
In my version Record Sort appears as a A over a Z with Arrows pointing from A to Z, and Z to A. It is next to group expert, which looks like a mountain with an arrow pointing up. Both are on the "Expert" tool bar.

I can not insert a field in ANY report . . .

CA Forum: General
I've searched around a bit about this. I can't find anything about anyone who had the same problem.
I was reporting along and suddenly CR v8.5 wouldn't let me insert a field anymore. I can't insert a field on a new or old report from the field exporer. I drag the field to the area of the report that I want to drop it and it stays a black circle with a line through it. It won't allow me to insert any field in any report.
I tested this on my coworkers computer and his is working fine. Same version, same report, same field.
What would cause my install of CR to stop allowing insertion of fields?
Thanks in advance . . .

Need to fix the width of a column in interactive report

Hi,
I have a column named 'Comment'. Its have a huge data due to which the lenght of that column in interactive report get increased. I need to fix the length to a desired value.
I used following code in Region Footer:
<style>
table.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA td[headers=COMMENTS] {
_width: 300px;
min-width: 50px;
max-width: 300px }
</style>
Its solved the problem by fixing the width of the column but the column is not showing the full data now. It is hiding most of its part to fit it in that column.
Please give some idea.
Thanks,
Chandru

Hi,
I believe you will want to add a height specification to allow for multiple lines. And you may want/need to specifiy how you want lines to wrap.
Add (for example):
height: 60px;
white-space: nowrap;
word-wrap: break-word;
There are defaults and several options for white-space and word-wrap. You may want to look them up and give them a try for comparison.
