Interactive Report - Date Format

Hi,
I created an interaticve report, in which one of the column is date picker data type. However, it's not showing the hour and minutes even though I chose the "DD-MON-YYYY HH:MIPM" format mask.
Does any one know why this it? Thank you very much for the help!

Hi Chris,
I tried to replicate this, but could not. Now granted, I tried this using the new "modern" method of controlling the default application date format via the new application Globalization attribute "Application Date Format". I set the Application Date Format to fmMM/DD/fmYY and my IR on EMP worked just fine.
If you can replicate this on apex.oracle.com (using Application Date Format), I'd be happy to take a look at it.

Interactive Report - Break formatting style

Hi All,
Is there a way to make Interactive reports break format work/look like classic reports break format? i.e.1st,2nd,3rd column option. The way IR breaks is that is reserves a whole row for the column used in the break, which is not what I want, I want the report to look like the following:
city               emp           sal
Chicago     John Miller 1500
                 Mark Horton 2000
Denver       Rob Martino 1200
I tried to use rollup queries which work fine except that it does not do exactly what I want when I sort columns through the front end , I am basically displaying a check box for grouped records ( and I want it to display at the first record of each group), so the order is important. for example:
checkbox   City               emp           sal
[ ]               Chicago     John Miller    1500
                                  Mark Horton 2000
[ ]              Denver       Rob Martino 1200
Thanks,
Sam

would someone please confirm if this is doable/undoable at least? I've spend a lot of time exploring possible options (none worked) and it would really help if someone can help me saving some time.
Thanks in advance.

Interactive reports - Number formats

Hi Guys,
I am new to Interactive Reports. I have a number column that I want to but a format on and have a total which I also want to format. Any ideas. TO_CHAR means I cannot apply an aggregate.
Thanks

Go to Report Attributes tab, and click on the Edit icon in the Column Attributes area. In Column Definition, you will see Number/Date Format option.
Hope it helps.

2 Bugs found in V4 Interactive report Date filter

I've noticed a couple of bugs when trying to create filter in an interactive report on a date column.
1) There is no "=" operator available for dates
2) There is no Year navigator for the date picker. This is essential for Date of Birth columns. I have to click the previous month button 12 times for each year...thats 720 times to get to 1950 !

Hi,
you could add new computation "Added This Week" (Format -> Compute), with Computation Expression:
case when sysdate- B < 7 then 'Y' else 'N' end
--B is my date column
Then you can add color highlight, with **Added This Week = Y
Additional you can even hide computed column (Action -> Select Columns)
You can check example on http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=60428:1

Control on Interactive Report Data displaying

Hi All,
We are using APEX 4.0.
Here are the few things that I am trying to accomplish -
I have created a few interactive reports in different tabs. Each report takes 4 parameters from the screen, and the values get to carry to the next report.
1. When users first come in to the tab, I don't want the report to be displayed until the SUBMIT button is clicked.
Currently, we have created an item (dis_flag) and use 1 or 0 to control the display. But, the page always get requery after the users browsing to other tabs and come back. Any other methods that you can advise?
2. Once the submit button is clickeded, the data should be kept on this page even after the users browsing around the application. No data should be change, until the SUBMIT button is been clicked again. Any ideas on this one?
The reason that we don't want the report to be displayed first is because the data is huge, and if this is running at the first, some users maybe thinking that something is wrong on the page. That's why we want them to click on submit, so, they know they need to wait. Also, since the report can be huge, we don't want this to be re-query again and again while users are browsing around the application.
Thank you for any advises that you can give!

rephase the question

1 . Put a condition on the interactive report to stop it running when you first display the page - I think you have done this already.
2. Enable caching for that page (go to the Server Cache tab on Edit Page) - this will also need a condition so that you can actually refresh the report when you need to.
This should make the browser use the cached version of the report (i.e. the one you ran originally) until you tell it not to.

XML Publisher to Excel Report : Date format problem

Hi,
I am trying to create an Excel report with XML Publisher. I have an issue with the Date Fomatting.
In the XML template, I have set the "Date" column in date format. But the excel output report "Date" column returns as "General text" (string) and it is sorted as text, not as date.
Can anyone please help me out?
Thanks!!!

Hi,
Did this post solve your problem? I have the same issue that I need to solve.
I have an xsl-fo template with dates in it.
The dates are in english.
My excel is setup to use danish.
When I export to excel it knows the month jan, feb, mar, apr, ... which are the same in danish and english.
But months where it differs like may (danish maj) the cell is a general text instead of date.
Is there anyway you can set/transform the date in the xsl-fo template so it does not care about the language in excel?
Thank you in advance.

Non-Interactive Report Break Formatting

I have a non-interactive report that is very large and I am trying to use break formatting to provide subtotals. It works, but is quite ugly. Can anyone tell me where I might find a list of the various substitution strings that can be used for controlling the appearance of the breaks? For example, right now when it breaks for a change in "Payor Name", the subtotal row is labeled "Total for Payor Name". It would be much friendlier if the row label said "Total for Aetna" when Aetna is the Payor Name and "Total for Cigna" when the Payor Name is Cigna, etc. For example

ABAP report date format

Hello friends,
In my report I have to display the details of the selection screen.
I am having some problem with the date format
HOwever when the user changes the settings in the user profile the data

WAD report Date format!

Hi All,
My requirement is to have the date in the WAD report in the format 01-AUG-2008.
The data maintained in the cube is 01/08/2008.
Plz help me out with the HTML code which i should write to achive this?
Or is thr any other way to achive this?
Thanks,
Pallavi Pande.

Hi,
Is the requirement to change the date format for one date (text item) or to change it in the table item.
1. Text Item
Use a div tag for the text item and give it an id which can be used in the javascript function.
On body load call a javascript function and change the format of the innertext of the div tag as if 1 then Jan, 2 then Feb etc..
2. If used in Table item.
Then you can the entire contents of the date by using the Table interface class by adding the approproate code in the Characteristics Cell/Attribute Cell method.
Hope this answers.
Thanks

Download Interactive Report data does not match on-screen data

Hi,
I have a page which has a process which runs a query and returns a random % of rows from a table, and saves this into a collection.
Then, based on the random rows, I want to select data from another table, where the rows match certain columns in the collection.
I have created a query to select the data I want, and have it displayed in an Interactive Report region.
The data on the screen is fine, but when I go to 'Dowload' the data to csv or excel from the Interactive report, the data is different.
I have also created a normal report region with the same query, and when I download it from here, it works fine, so I know it has nothing to do with the query.
Any ideas?
Amanda.
The process details are:
Process Point: On Load - Before Regions
Run Process: Once per page visit
Then in the Interactive report query is something like:
Select ..
from
DATA_TABLE c
select
c001 User_Id,
c002 Account_No,
c003 Transaction_Date
from htmldb_collections where collection_name='PX_COLLECTION'
*) d*
where
c.user_id = d.user_id AND
c.account_no = d.account_no AND
c.transaction_date = d.transaction_date

Hi,
This is because of web caching. You should invalidate the page caching in the access tab of page properties or you just change the page url with a dummy paramater like this
http://domain/portal/page?_pageid=6,1,6_11&_dad=<dad>&_schema=<schema>&1=1
Here &1=1 is a dummy parameter
This will invalidate the cache and the page will be refreshed.
Thanks,
Sharmila

Interactive Report Column Formating '%' symbol

Hi,
I have an intercative report that shows a column displaying a number and and the sysmbol %. The source query is similar to:
SELECT my_number||'%' as display_percentile
FROM dual;
Because of this the interactive report will only show this column as a string type and not number type, therefore my math filtering options are not available. Is there a way that I can display the column as a number type and still have it display as 50%
I am using Application Express 4.1.0.00.32
Thanks in advance.

Thank you fac586,
Forgive me, I am a newbie at this and I am still at a loss. Where can I change the report column attributes to reflect css and alike. Do I need to do this on the report template or in the column attributes. When I have looked in the column attributes I cant see anywhere other than on the column link.Add a style sheet using the page HTML Header property attribute:
<style>
/* Replace COLUMN_ALIAS with the alias of the % column in your report */
td[headers="COLUMN_ALIAS"]:after {

Interactive report column formatting

When control break is applied for any column in interactive report then the color applied to any column does not get applied.
.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA td[headers="ABC"] {color: RED;}Sanjay

With the control break the IR generates different mark-up, so you need to add another selector to the rules so there's a match on the column cells in both the standard and break report views.

Interactive Report - Date Filter Color Highlight SYSDATE Calculation

I have APEX 4.1.0.00.32. Straight forward items report, with a date field for when the item was added. I want to create a highlight filter (color highlights) for items added within the last week, called New Items
When I create the filter, it allows me to specify the name, color, etc., but the highlight date condition of "Added_Item > " only seems to allow for a specific date chosen from the calendar, whereas I want it to be "Added_Item > sysdate-7"
I haven't had any luck with TO_CHAR / TO_DATE functions around the sysdate-7. The filter just indicates Date YYYY-MON-DD HH24:MI is the expected format.
date functions not allowed? alternative?

Report Date formatting

We are using the Add Command feature to use queries to provide data to our reports. The date parameters from the query are then set in Crystal to datatype DATE. When setting up the parameter in the Designer, todayu2019s date appears in the default dialog box. However, if we leave that date, it stays the same when the report is run. In other words, if I build the parameter on Monday and leave Mondayu2019s date in the default box, when I run the report on Wednesday, the default date displayed will still be Mondayu2019s date.
How can I get the date parameter to default to the current date? My user would like leave the parameter alone sometimes (in order to get the current date), and select different date values at other times.

hi Rosanne,
unfortunately there's no way to have this changed automatically.
there is a workaround though...
1) change the default date of the parameter to something like 1888,08,08
2) change your record selection to something like
{yourdatefield} = (if {?your parameter} = date(1888,8,8) then currentdate else {?your parameter})
3) now if the end user doesn't enter a new value for the parameter the report will use the current date.
cheers,
jamie
