Interactive report and search feature

Hi
I have an interactive report and when i click on the down arrow of the control panel the search list drops down behind the report so i cant see it.
Can anyone help please
Thanks in advance

Do you have some CSS over ride that adds an z-index property to the region with a larger value than 1000(the default value I can find for the search drop down menu for my theme)
anyway try adding another style to the page header
<style>
#apexir_columnsearch, {
    z-index:9999;
</style>
Check with some large value for z-index

  • Interactive Reports and APEX 3.0

    hi -- I built some initial prototype pages (forms, reports, etc) in Apex 3.0. Have recently upgraded to 3.2, and in building more reports I see that there
    is an option for an Interactive Report (and it's the default). Was this available in 3.0? I was new enough to APEX that I may not have picked up on it if it was... but what I can see is that for the Reports I created in 3.0 (Where the region is PL/SQL function body returning SQL Query) there is no option, in the Region Definition, to migrate the report to an interactive report (as it appears there should be, from looking at post:
    Can we change a report to interactive
    The only task option is undo region source.
    If Interactive Reports weren't available in 3.0, is there any way to convert existing reports? Or would I just need to re-create them?
    Also, is there a tabular form that also supports interactive report features? I'm guessing not... but thought I'd ask.
    Thanks,
    Carol

    Interactive Reports were introduced in Application Express 3.1:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/3.1_new_features.html
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/apex/apexusr31/apexusr31.htm
    I will try and find a link about the conversion details (updated below).
    You only get the conversion option on the right hand of the screen for the Standard SQL Reports, not "SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query)".
    If you were to change it to the standard SQL type (which may not be possible) it would give you the option after applying the change. Interactive Reports only work on standard SQL queries, and not SQL generated from a function body.

  • Interactive Reports and BI Publisher

    Hello all,
    i am facing the problem that i have developed some applications and the only report type i used is 'interactive report'. This feature is fantastic! All end users are very happy with the possibilities the reports provide.
    Now the problem: we have BI Publisher integrated in APEX as print server. But the output ind PDF and Execl is far from being satisfying. It seems to me that only filters and ordering are sent to the BI Publisher. Every single printed report is a flat table and grouping and calculations are removed.
    Is there a way i don't know to create Excel-Downloads (and / or PDF-Downloads) where the structure of the report is the same as in the browser? If not, is it planned to integrate a 'real' print / publish functionality in APEX in the near future?
    If you know anything please share your knowledge, because this is the sow-stopper for for my applications. The only work around i found is to use 'normal' reports, but this will leave all the end users very unhappy.
    Thanks in advance,
    Wolfgang
    --- edit
    i am using apex 3.2 and BIP 10.1.3.4.1

    Wolfang,
    You're correct, Interactive Reports do currently not support all the printing features that are available with Classic Reports and Report Queries. This includes groupings, calculations, etc, and you can also not use your custom RTF templates with these reports yet. For APEX 4.0 we are planing to have Interactive Report exports (PDF, Word, Excel, HTML) that reflect what you see on your web page. And also to add support for custom RTF templates.

  • Interactive report and corresponding chart at the same time

    Hi,
    Is it possible to show interactive report and chart at the same time. I want to show chart beside the report.
    Any ideas or suggestion please?
    Thanks
    Aali

    Yes and no.
    Yes you can simply create a new chart region. This will have its own independed query.
    No. The chart that you can create with the IR-Chart feature replaces the normal table view.
    What I usually do is to save the Chart as a named report and then you have it as an extra tab in your interactiv report.

  • Interactive report and ALV s in HR ABAP.

    hi all,
         can any one tell , how to do  Interactive reporting  and alv's in HR ABAP. with some example reports..

    Hi Rao
    Nothing changes for HR ABAP when it comes to ALV or Interactive Lists. Only the DATA fetching process is changed. To fetch HR data , you use Logical Database PNP or Clusters or just read a specific infotype using a method.
    Here is a sample program for ALV 'BALVST02_GRID'. For interactive list , use this demo program
    DEMO_LIST_INTERACTIVE_1. It is a series of Demo Programs which you can open in SE38.
    Reward Points, if helpful.

  • Interactive Reports and PL/SQL Functions

    Hi,
    Am new to the interactive reports, and it appears to be I can only use a single SELECT statement to populate the report.
    I need to convert some older reports to the new interactive reports, but these are populated using PL/SQL functions, as the WHERE clause is built up depending on the selection of items on the web page.
    How can I replicate this with the new interactive reports? Have used CASE statements within a SELECT statement before, can I also use these in a WHERE clause as well?
    Regards
    Simon

    To my knowledge, currently the only way to use Interactive Reports is on a static query. And unfortunately you can't use CASE statements in the WHERE clause of a query, only in the select list.
    The way I would (and have) attacked this is to:
    1. Write the base static query as the basis of the interactive report
    2. Access the interactive report in while logged in as a developer
    3. Build a filter (or set of filters) and save the report. You have the choice of saving it as a named report or as the default report.
    This gives the user one to many filter sets they can use as a starting point and tweak, and gives them examples as to how they can and should use the interactive filtering.

  • Diff between interactive report and interactive alv

    Diff between interactive report and interactive alv? Suppose I have been given certain program then how I will diffrentiate that this prog should be done in interactive alv or interactive report.

    hi
    both are used for same purpose
    interactive report means an output list which displays basic details & allow user to interact, so that a new list is populated based on user-selection. With interactive list, the user can actively control data retrieval and display during the session.
    I suggest to use ALV.by using ALV we can display in Grid as well as list format.
    Output format will be good . Sorting,Filtering facilities are provided by itself.We can have column headings also.

  • Interactive report and font colours

    Apex : current version
    I have an interactive report that displays details from Table 1.
    I need to display the data is different colours. How do I do that?
    Eg: name of employees in green their email id in red etc etc.
    Can I do this ? If yes, please tell me how do I do this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Joe,
    The colour varies in fields based on what is displayed.
    For instance, I have the main employees table and a skills table with values Job A, Job B ,Job C etc.
    Different employees are skilled for different jobs so emp1 can have job A and job b while emp2 can have job D and job A etc
    The interactive report actually pulls data from a view I created based on the emp table and skill table
    emp1 job A Job B
    emp2 job D job A
    I want to display all Job A(displayed in report) in green colour and Job B in red and so on....Then why didn't you say so originally?
    Eg: name of employees in green their email id in red etc etc.No mention of skills, jobs or conditions.
    I want to know of we can do this and if yes how do I achieve it.Yes you can do this. If you had searched the forum before posting you'd have found out how to do it more than 24 hours ago.
    The real question is whether you should be doing this at all. Why do you think actually need/want to do this? It doesn't seem to provide any real usability benefit, and appear very likely to violate Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.
    But if you must...
    As interactive reports lack the HTML Expression feature of standard reports, the standard way to do this unfortunately requires violating the separation of concerns and generating structural (a <tt>span</tt> element) and presentational (an in-line style sheet) aspects in the query:
    select
    ⋮        
           , case
               when sk.skill = 'Job A'
               then
                 '<!-- ' || sk.skill || ' --><span style="color: green;">' || sk.skill || '</span>'
               when sk.skill = 'Job B'
               then
                 '<!-- ' || sk.skill || ' --><span style="color: red;">' || sk.skill || '</span>'
               ⋮
             end job1
    ⋮For columns to be properly sortable, the leading edge of the column must be an HTML comment that provides the required sort order using character semantics.
    The Display As column attribute for such columns must be set to Standard Report Column.
    This method has side effects: some IR filters won't work; aggregate calculations can't be applied to the column; and report exports contain the HTML rather than the expected value.
    Other approaches involve using Dynamic Actions/jQuery/JavaScript.
    However, if there are more than a few jobs/skills involved, or this information is volatile and subject to change then this method breaks down. To start with, there are only 17 named CSS colours, so if your minimal CSS knowledge doesn't extend to specifying colours in another way and you've more than 16 jobs then they can't all have a unique colour (white/silver/gray will be invisible on some IR backgrounds). It's also difficult/tedious to maintain this type of hard coding if the data changes frequently. How many jobs/skills are there?
    For more than 3 or 4 jobs a better approach would be to store the CSS colours or classes in a column in the skills table, and just select it with the job name:
    select
    ⋮        
           , '<!-- ' || sk.skill || ' --><span style="color: ' || sk.color || ';">' || sk.skill || '</span>' job1
           , '<!-- ' || sk.skill || ' --><span style="color: ' || sk.color || ';">' || sk.skill || '</span>' job2

    I am not so familiar with CSS so am bit confused while trying previous steps given by fac586What is confusing (other than posting a question different to the one you actually want answered)?
    You will be able to achieve very little in APEX if you are unfamiliar with the web technologies it uses. Spend some time on the tutorials here: start with HTML, then XHTML, CSS, Javascript and the HTML DOM, and now HTML5.
    Can you give me any simpler steps to achieve this? No, that is the simplest way to implement what was originally asked for.
    When you have a problem you'll get a faster, more effective response by including as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should include:
    <li>Full APEX version
    <li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
    <li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
    <li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
    <li>Theme
    <li>Template(s)
    <li>Region/item type(s) (making particular distinction as to whether a "report" is a standard report, an interactive report, or in fact an "updateable report" (i.e. a tabular form) and if so, whether the tabular form is declarative—using only report attributes and a wizard generated MRU process—or manual—using apex_item calls in the query and custom processing—or some hybrid approach.)
    With APEX we're also fortunate to have a great resource in apex.oracle.com where we can reproduce and share problems. Reproducing things there is the best way to troubleshoot most issues, especially those relating to layout and visual formatting. If you expect a detailed answer then it's appropriate for you to take on a significant part of the effort by getting as far as possible with an example of the problem on apex.oracle.com before asking for assistance with specific issues, which we can then see at first hand.
    Read the FAQ and forum sticky threads if you haven't done so already.
