Integrating Oracle Reports from Oracle Forms

Hello All,
I'm migrating from 6i to 9i/10g Forms and Reports on a Windows 2000 workstation.
I ran existing Forms and Reports through Migration Tool.
When I open a migrated Report in Reports Builder, connect to db, and click run, I get a blank browser. Any ideas what I have done wrong?
When testing a migrated Form that calls a report, the job fails. As best I can tell, it does not see the "Report Server" on my workstation. What did I do wrong?
I been searching for documentation to help myself, but haven't found any that address these issues.
Any insights are greatly appreciated.
-Chris

Chris,
sound like two issues
a) Reports run in report Builder show a blank browser window
b) Forms can't find the Reports Server.
For a) I don't have an answer and suggest to ask this question on the OTN Reports forum.
For b) The Reports Server needs to be created as an external process (or started expplicitly on UNIX). The default Reports Server is the "in process" server, which means that it isn't available before the Reports Servlet (rwservlet) is requested for the first time. The Forms Run_Report_Object() call is performed on the server and doesn't use the servlet, which is why a request may fail.
After using the migration tool, a user parameter exists in the Oracle Forms module that contains the Reports Server name. This name also can be overridden at runtime using a function of the rp2rro.pll

    hello,
    there are two ways to do this :
    1) submit two jobs, one that prints and one that creates the PDF
    2) use reports advanced distribution to print and create a PDF file on the server as part of the same job, and then use web.show_document to bring up the PDF in the browser.
    however, this brings up the question, why exactly you want to print and display at the same time. why not display it and let the user print form Acrobat Reader.
    thanks,

  • Calling report from a form with user input parameters

    Hello,
    I am new to Oracle reports. I have an application coded in 6i. I am currently running the application in Oracle Forms Builder 9i. There are also few reports which are called from the forms. Since the application was developed in 6i, the report was called using Run_Product. The forms pass a set of user parameters to the report using the parameter list pl_id. The syntax used was Run_Product(REPORTS, 'D:\Report\sales.rdf', SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM, pl_id, NULL);
    I learnt that the Run_product doesnt work in 9i and we need to use run_report_object. I have changed the code to use run_report_object and using web.show_document () i am able to run the report from the form. There are 2 parameters that need to be passed from forms to reports. The parameters are from_date and to_date which the user will be prompted to enter on running the form. In the report, the initial values for these parametes are defined. So, the report runs fine for the initial value always. But when i try to change the user inputs for the form_date and to_date, the report output doesnt seem to take the new values, instead the old report with the initial values(defined in the report) runs again.
    Can someone give me the code to pass the user defined parameters to the report from the forms? I have defined a report object in the forms node as REPTEST and defined a parameter list pl_id and added form_date and to_date to pl_id and used the following coding:
    vrepid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT ('REPTEST');
    vrep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT (vrepid,pl_id);
    But this doesnt work.
    Also, Should the parameters defined in the forms and reports have the same name?

    Thanks for the quick response Denis.
    I had referred to the document link before and tried using the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT_PROC procedure and ENCODE functions as given in the doc and added the following SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY in the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT_PROC :
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,REPORT_OTHER,' FROM_DATE='||:BLK_INPUT.FROM_DATE||' TO_DATE='||:BLK_INPUT.TO_DATE||' paramform=no');
    But this also dint work. Please help me understand what difference does setting paramform=no OR paramform=yes make?
    In the report, i have defined the user parameters as FROM_DATE and TO_DATE respectively so that they match the form datablock BLK_INPUT items FROM_DATE and TO_DATE.

    In the code - " hidden_action := hidden_action ||'&'|| v_report_other; " in the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT_PROC procedure above, how do i make sure that the v_report_other variable reflects the user input parameters FROM_DATE and TO_DATE ??? v_report_other is initialised as v_report_other VARCHAR2(4000) :=''; in the procedure. Will ensuring that the v_report_other contains the user input parameters FROM_DATE and TO_DATE ensure that my report will run fine for the input parameters?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    1. create a Reports Object node in Forms. If you use teh same object node name then you can write generic code that works in all Forms
    2. Get the whitepaper about Forms/reports integrtion

  • Passing parameters to report from current form

    Hi all!
    I have a problem with parameter passing from form to report. I want to display the report with the current customer id and current product id from the form. But my problem is I don't know how to pass parameters from form to report. I am a new user of oracle applications. If any one can help me, please tell me step by step what I should do because I am so new with oracle developer.
    Thanks.
    Sonia.

    Hi,
    An easy way to pass the parameters to the report from the form.
    In the trigger from where u are calling the report you can write a short code there to pass on the parameters you want in the report.
    declare
    pl_id ParamList;
    BEGIN
    pl_id := Get_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
    IF NOT Id_Null(pl_id) THEN
    Destroy_Parameter_List( pl_id );
    END IF;
    pl_id := Create_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
    Add_Parameter(pl_id,'PARAM1',TEXT_PARAMETER,:FORM_ITEM1);
    Add_Parameter(pl_id,'PARAM2',TEXT_PARAMETER,:FORM_ITEM2);
    Add_Parameter(pl_id,'PARAM3',TEXT_PARAMETER,:FORM_ITEM3);
    Run_Product(REPORTS,'C:\UR.RDF',(SYNCHRONOUS or ASYNCHRONOUS), RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM, pl_id);
    END;
    For this there is an assumption that in your report you have created, 'PARAM1', 'PARAM2', 'PARAM3' as User Parameters in you data model.
    I have also just now answered for your problem of setting item properties on select of a value from an LOV. Check that out too.

  • Can not run Reports from a Form

    Hello,
    First: I'm completely new to Oracle, even my english is not very good - i'm sorry for that.
    Problem:
    I want to run a report from a Form using the Report Server.
    If i use:
    WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://tfischer:8888/reports/rwservlet?report=C:\Oracle-Projekte\testbericht.rdf&USERID=user/password@oraapp&SERVER=SrvShadow&DESFORMAT=html&DESTYPE=cache', '_blank') - everything works well.
    But if i use:
    repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('REPORT_NAME');
    v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid); - always following Error-Message appears:
    "FRM41213: Anmeldung bei Report-Server SrvShadow nicht möglich" (english: registration on Report-Server SrvShadow not possible)
    I am using:
    Windows 2000
    Oracle DS9i
    Oracle DB92 (Personal edition)
    Can somebody help me, please?
    If you need more information, to help me, please ask.

    Hi,
    Try using
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY
    (repid,REPORT_SERVER,"YOURSERVERNAME");
    before
    v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT;
    If you are testing the report on your PC using reports services on your PC then you may need to initiailize the reprots server using
    rwserver server="YOURSERVERNAME" install
    at command prompt.
    Hope this helps.

  • Calling Report from a Form

    Hi All,
    I tried to call a report from a form (using this form as a parameter form)but unfortunately it is not working out for me. I used the run_product built in.
    Could someone examine my code and tell me what is wrong?
    DECLARE

    null

    Olan,
    Your code looks good, and it should work.
    Maybe you should check your report to make sure it is under oralce report path, user-defined parameters in the report are same name, type,lengh as in the form parameters, and correct system parameters.
    good luck.

  • Calling a Report from a Form

    I have uploaded my form to the app server and compiled to Linux. I have copied my RDF file to the reports_path/demo directory. I can run the report via a link from our portal using the URL as follows:
    /reports/rwservlet?report=IndRpt.rdf&desformat=pdf&destype=cache&userid=' target="_blank"
    That opens the report in a separate window, which is what we want. So far, so good.
    I can run the form via a link from our portal as well using the URL as follows:
    /forms/frmservlet?config=bsc_ind
    The config section hides all the form parameters very nicely.
    In the portal, I created a Report Server Access portlet, REP_OMHAST2_MIDTIER, and use the following set_report_object calls in my form:
    repid := find_report_object('IndRep');
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTYrepid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,BATCH);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTYrepid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'PDF');
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTYrepid,REPORT_SERVER,'rep_omhast2_midtier');
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,ls_param);
    v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
    rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);
    WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED') LOOP
    rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
    END LOOP;
    IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
    /*Display report in the browser*/
    WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://omhast2.omh.state.ny.us:7777/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||
    substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=rep_omhast2_midtier ','_blank');
    All that comes right out of the white paper.
    Now here's the weird part, I have never seen this before. When I click my "Show Report" button in my form, the report seems to be running, but then I get a very strange dark grey, square icon superimposed over my mouse pointer. The icon has a small yellow "starburst" pattern with a tiny red exclamation point inside. The report does not appear on screen.
    Incidentally, all of this works correctly when I run the same scenario on my workstation using the call to rwserver as: rwserver server=rep_omhast2_midtier. But when we port it to the app server, it does not run. I think it has to be in the way the form calls the report because the report will run as a stand-alone object.
    Anything apparent to anyone out there?

    Well, it looks like I stumped the band. And with good reason. Sorry for the error. The problem was that the user running the form and the report had a pop-up blocker that was blocking the report. The form and the report ran from another machine. I allowed pop-ups from the report's URL and that enabled the report to appear.
    So, here we have another example of how to call a report from a form. Again, I am sorry for any angst this may have caused.

  • How to view report from a Form

    I am trying to call a parameter report from a form passing all
    the parameters, using RUN_PRODUCT procedure. I want to display
    the report and not to print it. I set the destination type

    batch in order to hide the parameter form and display the report.
    In the actual report, I have set the initial value for the

    But, I am getting the error saying for destination type sysout,

    After this i created a form with department table as my datablock:
    I created a report object in the form with name REPORT6.
    -Created a procedure in the form with the following code
    PROCEDURE RUN_REPORT_OBJECT_PROC(report_id REPORT_OBJECT,reportserver VARCHAR2,runformat VARCHAR2) IS
    report_message VARCHAR2(100);
    rep_status VARCHAR2(100);
    vc_user_name VARCHAR2(100);
    vc_user_password VARCHAR2(100);
    vc_user_connect VARCHAR2(100);
    vc_connect VARCHAR2(300);
    BEGIN
    vc_user_name:=get_application_property(username);
    vc_user_password:=get_application_property(password);
    vc_user_connect:=get_application_property(connect_string);
    vc_connect:=vc_user_name||'/'||vc_user_password||'@'||vc_user_connect;
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,BATCH);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,REPORT_COMM_MODE,ASYNCHRONOUS);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,REPORT_DESFORMAT,runformat);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,REPORT_SERVER,reportserver);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,REPORT_OTHER,'p_deptno='
    ||:Dept.Deptno
    ||' paramform=yes P_USER_CONNECT='
    ||vc_connect||' P_SERVERNAME='||reportserver
    ||' P_ACTION=http://iitv-1:8888/reports/rwservlet?');
    report_message:=run_report_object(report_id);
    rep_status := report_object_status(report_message);
    WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED')LOOP
    rep_status := report_object_status(report_message);
    END LOOP /* Wait for Report to be finished */;
    IF rep_status='FINISHED' then
    web.show_document('http://iitv-1:8888/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||
    substr(report_message,instr(report_message,'_',-1)+1)||'?server'
    ||reportserver,'_blank');
    ELSE
    message (rep_status||' Report output aborted');
    END IF;
    END;
    I created a press button and in the when_button_pressed trigger i added the following code:
    declare
         repid REPORT_OBJECT;
         repserver VARCHAR2(100);
         runformat VARCHAR2(10);
    BEGIN
         repid := find_report_object('REPORT6');
         repserver := 'rep_iitv-1';
         runformat := 'HTML';
         run_report_object_proc(repid,repserver,runformat);
         END;
    Then tried to run the form but i got this error frm-41213 unable to connect to the report server.
    Any one please help me.

    Run_report_object can't work with forms9i
