Interactive Reporting and Aging Report

I would like to create an aging report for our I.T. tickets using the results of my IR query. I looked at the date functions, but they seem to be limited (as in no DaysBetween option or no convert the date to day of the year option). Any suggestions for how to make this work?
Thanks.
Terri T.

Depending on your Database you can do it in the Query.
if you need to do it in the results section then just subtract 2 dates and you will get the number of days between. If they are time stamped then you will get a decimal which can be translated through math to tell you hours and minutes.

1. There is NO diff btw Interactive and Drilldown.
2. get cursor.
get cursor field <field_name> value <field_value>.
when you double clik on any line in list..reads particular field instead of whole line (where you clicked).
3. Hide statement.
hides contents of fields to make availble to further list processing

Mixing of interactive report and classic report fails the RESET PAGINATION process.

I have a tab page where i got 3 different reports REPORT_A (classic), REPORT_B(interactive) and REPORT_C (CLASSIC) in the same alphabetic order. I have a reset pagination page process which will always fire (without any condition) when you visit the page via tab.
The reset pagination process which exists in the before header stage is firing but not resetting the interactive report. It does affect the subsequent classic report REPORT_C as well. The REPORT_A would reset pagination fine since it exists before the interactive report. Is this a know bug in apex?
I created a test demo application with exact steps to reproduce the problem. The steps are in the demo website itself.
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=56638
U: testuser
P: password
Apex Version: 4.2.4.00.08
In my real application i would have a dropdownlist in the page based on which I would filter the data. The dropdownlist will have a corresponding after-submit branch which will handle the reset pagination & RIR absolutely fine. But when we visit the website through tab the above problem would crash the page.
I tried solutions like gReport.search('SEARCH') but that will fix only the interactive report, not the classic REPORT_C. That is just a hack anyway.
Any ideas.?

This makes very little sense to me. Please explain this in detail. Are you advocating making changes to APEX metadata by executing DML on tables in the APEX_040200 schema? Doing so will leave your APEX instance in an unsupported an possibly inoperable state.

Interactive reporting in Linux 64 bit system.
we are few questions jotted below:
Interactive reporting studio client & Interactive reporting Dashboard Development Studio client are disabled.
post installation we are not able to see IR Client folder in <EPM HOME> location.
while launching workspace we are not able to see the WEB Client Interactive reporting under TOOLS-->INSTALL.
we read in a blog, which states it Interactive reporting needs a license. whether it needs any special License for using it?
we downloaded the Entire Dump of EPMS 11.1.2.2 from Oracle Edelivery website.
Kindly let us know we are missing any where?
we are strucked at this point.

Interactive Report Download and Session State Protection

I have created an Interactive Report in an APEX application that I have enabled
session state protection for. The issue I am having is with the "Download"
functionality of the interactive report to a .csv file.
The URL created by selecting Download from the drop down (javascript:gReport.controls.download();)
is built or constructed without a checksum thus causing the error below.
Error
No checksum was provided to show processing for a page that
requires a checksum when one or more request, clear cache, or argument
values are passed as parameters.
The anchor tag containing the URL (/f?p=app_id:page:session_id:CSV:) is contained within
<div id="apexir_CONTROL_PANEL_DROP" class="drop_panel
clearfix" style="">
Running the following: Application Express 3.1.0.00.32 on Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0
Is there a way to add a checksum to this? OR does anyone have any ideas on how to work around this?
Edited by: Bryce Tuohy on Feb 26, 2009 10:08 AM

WORKAROUND:
1.) Create hidden ITEM on page (I named it P23_PREPARED_CSV_DOWNLOAD_URL).
Enter the following for the ITEM
as the SOURCE_TYPE : PL/SQL Function Body
as the SOURCE: return apex_util.prepare_url('f?p=&APP_ID.:&APP_PAGE_ID.:&APP_SESSION.:CSV:')
2.) Create BUTTON that executes javascript to open POPUP window with this url.
a.) Create Button and enter
<a href="javascript:popupURL('&P23_PREPARED_CSV_DOWNLOAD_URL.')">Download and Save to CSV file</a>as the "Text Label/Alt"
Originally had custom code for javascript POPUP and this is not needed .... just use the APEX javascript function.

Column link in interactive report to run procedure and refresh

I have an interactive report which displays a report based on a table. This is a summary table populated overnight from some complex spatial analysis, which takes a few hours to run. I have a requirement to allow the user to refresh one row in this table - they would do this during the day if they needed to see the most up-to-date values.
I have a package with two stored procedures - one which does the full refresh of the table, and one which refreshes one row when PK is passed in.
One of the columns in the table is 'last_refreshed' which is a date - this is shown in the interactive report including minutes.
I was thinking that maybe I could include a hyperlink on this 'last_refreshed' date column in the report. When a user clicked on it, it would run the stored procedure for that row and would refresh the report.
Any ideas on how I could do this? I've hit a bit of a dead end for now.
Thanks

OK, I worked it out.
I created an application item to store a global variable.
Then in the column attributes of the report, I set the 'last_refreshed' to be a linked column, setting target to the current page and then setting the application item global variable to be the row PK.
Then I have a Process which runs the required stored procedure reading the application item global variable, set to run on page load.
Sorted.

Interactive Report Column Headings and Row Height

I am using the div style="width:350px;" method to control the width of columns in various interactive reports. That works fine except for the following:
1. When creating filters, the <div...> stuff shows up along with the actual column heading, thus confusing some end users
2. Even when I uncheck the "Use same text for single row view" checkbox and then provide a simple single row view label, the <div> stuff still shows up on the single row view
Does anyone have a better solution?
Also, does anyone know of a way to limit the row height within an interactive report row? I have some columns of data that contain a large amount of HTML data and I'd like to be able to limit the number of rows that show on the report.
Is Oracle planning to provide some better control over the Interactive Report columns in another version? The Interactive Report is such a huge improvement in usability in APEX - it would be great to take it to another level by providing some better control over column width and row height.

Dale,
Unfortunately we don't have much we can use to do what you would like. I would have said it's impossible until version 4 but you could actually do something similar to what Roel has done. His trick is in the edit button. He changed the edit button to use an "onload" call to a JavaScript process. You could do the same but call a process that goes across the rows and styles each column. Now because you don't have a way to identify the column (can't use the order because the end user could change it) you'll have to write the code to look at the top row first and then style the appropriate column. As far as I can tell, this would be quite difficult and inefficient. Having said that if you need it that bad and would like some help with it, put up an example application on apex.oracle.com and provide the workspace/username/password and I'll take a look.

Interactive Report and the mysterious invalid number

Hello,
I have an application that is ready, or so I thought, to be sent to a client to update an existing application. One page in the application has an interactive report that is based on a table in the parsing schema that is joined to the apex_collections view. The report works without issue in my dev environment as well as in the client's test environment. But when a colleague tested the updated app in a different test environment, the report errors out with an ORA-01722: invalid number error.
Needless to say I'm now hesitant about the update to production because I can't find the cause of the issue on my colleague's machine and would hate for this to happen in production. In trying to find the issue in on my colleague's machine, I first tried removing all of the columns (save the id) from the report to see if it was being generated there, no change. Then I started removing the joins and when the join to the apex_collections view was removed the error disappeared. The join was written as:
SELECT *
FROM table tbl
JOIN apex_collections col
   ON tbl.id = col.c001
WHERE col.collection_name = 'MY_COLLECTION';I know that the underlying tables for the apex_collections view store columns c001 .. c050 as VARCHAR2(4000) so I was relying on implicit data conversion to apply the join. Perhaps this is where the error is coming from but that would mean that "extra" rows are being returned as all of the c001 values returned in the session (from dev toolbar) are also valid numbers. As I said before, the problem is only occurring in 1 of 3 apex instances so I tested it in a 4th, and again, there was NO problem. I then realized that my query is potentially dangerous if c001 is used to hold something other than a number in the current session, which is NOT the case in any of the instances, but I tried updating the report to the following to see if it would help:
SELECT *
FROM table tbl
JOIN (
   SELECT TO_NUMBER(c001) AS c001
   FROM apex_collections col
   WHERE collection_name = 'MY_COLLECTION'
) apex_col
   ON apex_col.c001 = tbl.idThat query worked as expected in the dev environment and will be used as the query going forward. However, it failed to fix the problem in the "problem" instance. This seems to be a local issue but I'd like to know for sure. All of the systems are configured as follows:
1. Dev - Oracle 10g R2 XE - ApEx 3.1.2 - Works
2. Test1 - Oracle 10g R2 EE - ApEx 3.1.2 - Works
3. Test2 (colleague) - Oracle 10g R2 XE - ApEx 3.1.2 - Fails
4. Test3 (my localhost) - Oracle 10g R2 XE - ApEx 3.1.2 - Works
5. Prod - Oracle 10g R2 EE - ApEx 3.1.2 - ???
Any ideas?

Dan,
I'm always suspicious of problems that disappear without knowing why - usually they reappear the very moment that an end-user starts using the app :D
You didn't show how you are populating the collection in your original posting, so I'm not clear on exactly what the data would show. What I was thinking was, knowing that collections are all varchar2's, that something like TO_CHAR() had been used in the SQL statement that created the collection.
I don't think that trimming the data would have any effect. If the problem does happen again, I would suggest creating a report based on the collection (basically doing a data dump onto a page) and then see exactly what is in there. If any number contains a comma (or other characters such as currency symbols), then you have to use a number format string to get back to the actual raw number.

Interactive report with checkbox and editable field

Hi,
For a project I'm working on I need to create a interactive report in Apex 3.2 with the ability to select lines and to modify one of the columns in the report.
To do this, I started off by adding these two fields to the selection query of my IR:
apex_item.checkbox(1, product_number) cb
and
apex_item.text (2,QTY_TO_ORDER) QTY_TO_ORDER
cb is the checkbox files, and QTY_TO_ORDER is the editable field.
That worked like a charm and I got my two fields in the report.
To process the values, I added this page process, wich for now should only store the "product number" and "QTY_TO_ORDER" fields in a table.
BEGIN
FOR i in 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01.count LOOP
insert into mytmptable values (APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01(i),APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02(i));
END LOOP;
commit;
end;
However, this doesn’t work the way I want it to work. When I check the checkboxes of two rows, it will store two rows with the right product numbers, but it will take the top two QTY_TO_ORDER field of the table regardless of which ones are checked. I was able to solve this problem, by adding a rownum to the query and using the rownum as the value for the checkbox. Since I still need the product_number and qty_to order fields I made them both text fields.
I changed my page process to:
BEGIN
FOR i in 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01.count LOOP
insert into mytmptable values (APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02(APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01(i)),
APEX_APPLICATION.G_F03(APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01(i)));
END LOOP;
commit;
end;
This seemed to solve the problem, and I now got the right values in the table, unless I used sorting in the report... As soon as I sorted the report in a way different than by rownum, I got the wrong values in the table. The reason for this is of course that my insert just selects the nTh row from the table, and my rownums aren't dynamic.
I've found a lot of examples on the internet using '#ROWNUM#' in the selection, which should dynamically generate a rownum in the report. This seems to work in normal report, but in a interactive reports, the literal values '#ROWNUM#' shows up.
Is there any way to solve this issue?

Hi,
Try with 3 fields:
apex_item.checkbox(1, product_number) cb,
apex_item.text (2,QTY_TO_ORDER) QTY_TO_ORDER,
apex_item.hidden(3, product_number) prod_no
The hidden field should be display as a hidden column.
Then your process can be:
BEGIN
FOR i in 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01.count LOOP
FOR j in 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_F03.count LOOP
IF APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01(i) = APEX_APPLICATION.G_F03(j)) THEN
insert into mytmptable values (APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01(i),APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02(j));
exit;
END IF;
END LOOP;
END LOOP;

Apex 3.1. Interactive Report. Questions and Problems.

Hello!
First of all I'd like to say Interactive Report is a really really brilliant feature, it covers exactly that points which we were missing in previous releases of Apex. Only this single feature makes Apex 3.1 release most significant for us since may be HTML DB 1.6. So much much thanks!
So I have some questions about Interactive Report (IR):
1) About "Save Report" feature. It is possible there to save own version of report layout or overwright the default settings. There is also possibility to completelly disable this function. So the question is it possible to disable only the ability to overwright the default report but give the ability to save own reports. It would be reasonable since too smart or too dum users can break the default layout of report and break the work for other users which don't use this function at all. At the same time the possibility to save own reports
is absolutelly perfect
2) Search. I'm from Germany and we have some national non-english symbols. The IR can't perform seach correctly if we use words with such symbols. Example word "Bestätigt" is interpreted by IR as "BestÃ¤tigt". At the same time the words are correctly displayed in reports and in interface. We have correct NLS_LANG, we have imported the lang_de.sql , and our own self-made search on simple reports works ok. What's to do?
3) Charts in IR. Is there some data volume limits for Chart in IR ? sometimes we get the message "Loading XML...100%" during chart rendering and then happens nothing. In log file of Apache there is no any error messages...
Thanks in advance,
Alex

Hi Alex,
Glad to hear you're putting interactive reports to use, we put in a lot of time trying to get them right (at least for their first release).
1) The "Save As Default Report Settings" option is only available for Developers, so you can only see it if you already see the developer toolbar at the bottom of the page. Standard end-users can't see this, so they can't save over your default report settings.
2) That's right, the character set of the DAD needs to be AL32UTF8.
3) A maximum of 1000 chart points will be returned, but you should not get this error. Can you describe the columns you are charting and the chart settings?

Issues with the Radio Group and interactive report

Hi,
I have an interactive report that shows customer names and associated revenues... I want my users to be able to filter customer list by Province and by City in a way that when the user select a province then only associated cities show up (driven by a table)... for the filtration I am using 2 Radio Group items (one for Provinces and the other one for Cities)
Everything is working fine, except for the fact that when I select a province (let's say Prov A) and then select a city (let's say City A1) and again when I select another Province (let's say Prov B) I get the list of all cities associated to Prov B + city A1... Not sure why my previous selection of City is showing up with the list of new cities when I change the province... I SHOULD BE ABLE TO REST ALL CITIES WHEN A NEW PROVINCE IS SELECTED
here is the code
For interactive report
select     CUSTOMER_NAME,
     SUM(YTD) AS YTD
from     T_TABLEA
where
(PROVINCE=
CASE
when :P2_PROV = 'All' THEN PROVINCE
ELSE :P2_PROV
END
and
(CITY=
CASE
when :P2_CITY = 'All' THEN CITY
ELSE :P2_CITY
END
GROUP BY CUSTOMER_NAME
For Province Radio Group I am using a static list:
STATIC2:All;All,Alberta;AB,Ontario;ON,Quebec;PQ,British Columbia;BC
For City, I am using a dynamic list using following code:
select 'All', 'All' return from dual
union
select distinct INITCAP(CITY) display_value, CITY return_value
from T_TABLEA
where
Province = :P2_PROV
order by 1
Thanks

Check the session state of items P2_PROV and *:P2_CITY* when the issue occurs and run the LOV query separately with the session state values.
If that too fetches it wrongly, then you would need to change your query.

Apex 5.0, Horizontal scrollbar for Interactive Report and Pivot Format

Hi,
i would like to know how to have an horizontal scrollbar for an interactive report (5.0) after making a pivot from the user interface; i have a lot of columns and without the pivot the horizontal scrollbar appears . After it doesn't appear.
I tried with the Region Header <div style="overflow:auto;"> and Region Footer </div> but without success.

Please mention the theme and template you are using for the Interactive Report.
Can you re-produce the issue on apex.oracle.com and share the workspace credentials, so that can have closer look at the issue?

Features that are not supported by Excel in the browser and interactive reports will be removed from the saved copy

I Created a power view in Excel 2013 and uploaded to my Power BI for o365 site.
But when i click on my excel file it opens in browser,After that i click on File tab its showing me two option
1. Save a Copy
2.Download a copy
When i click on save a copy its showing me an warning below
Features that are not supported by Excel in the browser and interactive reports will be removed from the saved copy.
Continue with Save?
If i continue saving it only saves an excel files with data only not the power view which i want to save with applied filters.
Please help me for this

Just to clarify, when you hit the option of Save As Copy, the whole experience goes into a "read-write" mode in Excel services, which currently doesn't support authoring, just consumption of PowerView sheets.
Two mitigations that come to mind:
1. Download the copy (as Brad suggests), rename the file and upload.
2. Use the send to option of SharePoint online, give the file the right target document library (can be the same as source) and rename the file:
