Interactive Reports Lost

It would appear that when a new Apex application is installed the Interactive Reports preferences are reset and any saved reports are lost. Am I doing something wrong or is this a feature of Interactive Reports.
Cheers
Shunt

Resurrecting/Bumping this thread.
I tried David Peake's advice on this but drew a blank.
Here's where I am with this.
Server 1: DEV & UAT environments
Server 2: Production & Demo environments
DEV APP_ID = 127
DEMO APP_ID = 555
I created a copy of 127 and assigned it the 555 ID during the 'copy' process.
I then exported App ID 555 from server 1 and imported it into server 2 following David's instructions.
+"select "Install As Application:" option of 'Reuse Application ID xxx From Export File', not 'Auto Assign New Application ID' or 'Change Application ID'"+
Sadly, you guessed it, the user saved IRR reports are no more.
Has anyone cracked this?
Can anyone see what I may be doing wrong?
Any help appreciated.
Like many people here, I have lots of users with carefully crafted IRR regions. I don't want to be the one to tell them they have to re-create them.
There HAS to be a way to save them.
Thanks

Interactive reports lost when copying application

Hi,
For developing purposes, I often copy an entire application and start working with a new version of the application on the same database. Now, I noticed that after copying an application, all the saved interactive reports were gone. The report itself still works fine, but the tab bar with saved reports is no longer there.
Is this correct?
Regards,
Tijn

Hello,
I believe that's correct yes (it's linked to the user).
You want the saved reports are also copied in your new application?

Dimitri

Apex 4.0.1 Interactive Reports lost after application import

Hello, After importing the application, in order to upgrade it (using the same app id across environments), users' saved Reports were lost. I've read former posts regarding this issue, but they were pretty old (from 2008/2009) and refer to Apex 3.2. Has anyone experienced this problem with 4.0.1? If so, is there a fix or way to work around it? Thank you.

APEX_ITEM on Interactive Report losing all the data.

Hi!
I'm having some troubles with some apex_items on interactive report.
The problem happens when i save the interactive report with apex_items and a validation in some of the items fail then i lose all the data entered.
I made i test application to you guys see the problem and try to solve it.
URL: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/
The scheme is Sn4k8
User: guest
Password: 123654g
To see the application: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=20135:1:
The application is Interactive Report Example / Page number 1
A example to test is type on the fields values and then type a start date bigger then the end date this is cause a validation error and you will see all your data entered lost.
I tryed to find something on the web but i could not find nothing if you guys know something to help post it.
Regards,
Ismael Filipe
Edited by: Sn4k8 on 25/03/2010 12:26

I think there is a solution with java or pl/sql.
Try to use the example application and type values in the fields and then type "d" at some date. This will cause a exception and will redirect to a apex erro page, if you click at "ok link", you will come back to the interactive report page and you will see that all your data remains intact.
I think there is a solution...

How can i reorder the columns in the do not display section of the interactive report.

Hi,
My interactive report contains 185 columns, and the user requieres to build his customized reports with some columns, but the he gets lost between this amount of columns, this would be easier if the columns in the do not display section of the interactive report would be sorted automaticaly, Is this possible?
Thanks a lot,

Hi Eva,
One solution would be to order the column names alphabetically. You can create a JavaScript dynamic action to handle the sorting.
The shuttle of the IR attribute "Select Columns" have the ID's "apexir_SHUTTLE_LEFT" or the Hidden colums and "apexir_SHUTTLE_RIGHT" for the displayed columns.
The function you'd need to create would look like:
var options = $('select#apexir_SHUTTLE_LEFT option');
var arr = options.map(function(_, o) { return { t: $(o).text(), v: o.value }; }).get();
arr.sort(function(o1, o2) { return o1.t > o2.t ? 1 : o1.t < o2.t ? -1 : 0; });
options.each(function(i, o) {
o.value = arr[i].v;
$(o).text(arr[i].t);
var options = $('select#apexir_SHUTTLE_RIGHT option');
var arr = options.map(function(_, o) { return { t: $(o).text(), v: o.value }; }).get();
arr.sort(function(o1, o2) { return o1.t > o2.t ? 1 : o1.t < o2.t ? -1 : 0; });
options.each(function(i, o) {
o.value = arr[i].v;
$(o).text(arr[i].t);
You'd need to find the propper timing for the dynamic action to run, I guess click of the button "Select Columns" would do the trick.

Interactive report jquery not executed on pagination

recently i fell into another problem when using jquery in an interactive report.
in the page header i do this
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready( function() {
   var pageID = $('#pFlowId').val();
   $('.Artikelinfo').each( function(i) {
            var $item = $(this);
            var get = new htmldb_Get(null,pageID ,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=GET_ARTIKEL_INFO',0);
            get.addParam('x01', $item.attr('artnr'));
            $item.attr('rel', get.url());
            $item.attr('relTitle', $item.html());
            return true;
   $('.Artikelinfo').cluetip({
         arrows: true,
         tracking: true,
         titleAttribute: 'relTitle'
});in the link attributes of a column i put this:
target="_blank" class="Artikelinfo" artnr="#NUMMER#" rel="" reltitle=""it works like charm... but only on the first page.
as soon as a change page the jquery is not executed, the attributes are not set.
i think this is because while pagination of the IR the actual page is not reloaded.
how can i achieve that that the jqury part is executed after pagination?
u can find an example here [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=19645:1] username "user1" password "abc123"
hover over the first column u will see a cluetip.
afer the first pagination, the hoverhelp is lost
thanks

Interactive Report Subscription emailing different dataset

Hi All,
I am having a bit of strange problem with subscriptions email on an interactive report.
I have the report to email users every morning from an interactive report. The dataset that is emailed is not the same as the report on the interactive report screen. The variance between what is emailed and what is on the report screen page is quite large and it is not an issue of the data changing between the email fist going out and the report screen being viewed.
Also, is there a way for a user to 'unsubscribe' from a report?
Any help would be great,
Thanks

APEX Version v: Application Express 4.0.0.00.46

Hello Becky,
While exporting from DEV you should set NO for following options
<li> Export Private Interactive Reports
<li> Export Interactive Report Subscriptions
Because, Private Reports and Subscriptions will be made by end-users and they will be made on Prod systems. So if you export them from DEV and import into PROD, then all private reports and subscriptions will be lost on PROD.

CRM Interactive Reports Activation

Hi All
We need to activate de Interactive Reports in CRM But we don't know what to do with the BI Client.
BI Cliente is a BI product Installed in the Same Sever, but in different Client? Or we just have to customize the the Analytics part in CRM?
Our Basis consultant is lost about it.
Best Reagrds and thanks for any info.

Hello Luis,
The BI Report reuse component can be used to display any BI report based on the BW 3.x Template technology inside of the CRM 2006s UI Framework. As any other reuse component it can be embedded in a viewset or navigated to the components window. It can be used in workcenter pages and overview pages.
The Customizing is maintained in view cluster CRMVC_GEN_UI_BE.
Use transaction CRMC_UI_BI to call the customizing. This should give an fair idea about your question.

Select list within interactive report.

Hello y'all,
I have a need to develop an interactive report and am lost in how to proceed. I am asking for your help. The report requirements are as such:
- There are 3 types of records that will be in the report
- The is a checkbox to associate the records to a particular event.
- If the record is of a certain value, 3 of the columns in that record have to show as select lists.
- The records with the other 2 values should not have the select lists, just show a null in those columns.
- The checkbox must be checked for the select lists to appear.
- The select lists are based on a list of values. The values are populated with an existing common function used in many of the application pages.
I am having no success in trying to get the select lists in the report. Has anyone developed an interactive report that uses select lists within the report? Is this even possible?
I am using application Express 3.2.0.00.27. Any help that you can give is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!
*** Got it. It has to be a tabular report with updateable columns. ***

Hi,
I am not sure if the "equal to" condition applies to a DOM object... after all, a DOM object can be anything (any HTML element) not only a field.
Try using a javascript expression instead, like this:
$v('P6_IR_SELECT_LIST')=='Delete'UPDATE: Sorry, I just tested and "equal to" condition works for DOM objects... should have tested before posting!

Interactive reports help

Hi all
I have some questions about Interactive reports 3.1 . I'm not sure if IRR have this capability but I know I am having a hard time setting it up for a user. So if anyone knows if this is possible it would be a great help
First I need to create a IRR that is grouped by Vendor/Year. Other column would include project and contract amount.
I filtered the report using date between 01/06 -12/31/07 - easy enough
The purpose of the report is to show the total spent on contracts for the year 06 compared to 07 . The user would select the years to compare in the future.
I can break on vendor and aggregate the sum of the contract amount but I can not seem to
a) get a grand total of all contracts
b) break on year
I tried the compute action item but was lost.
The user may accept two separate reports by year (2007,2006) but I will need to sum the contract amount by vendor and then I'll need a grand total.
Is either way possible with IRR?
Thanks So much
Moe

Dimitri
Thank You for your reply
We are trying to make it easier for the user to generate these reports on demand. Once the IRR report is done it will be downloaded to pdf so the totals will need to be part of that report.
As basic example, the user chose contracts awarded to vendors for the year 2006 only by using a filter. ( no compare) They would expect to see a subtotal of the contracts by vendor
Vendor: Acme (break on vendor)
contract1 500.
contract2 500.
Total of contracts to Acme = $1,000
Vendor Genx
contract12 500
contract13 500
Total of contract to Genx = $1,000
Grand Total of contracts awarded for 2006 = $2,000.00
Then I thought the user could use the save report feature to save the one for 2006 and create another one same format for 2007 and use that to compare years.
If I'm missing the obvious I apologize

Saved Interactive Reports after APEX Upgrade

Hi,
When you do an APEX Upgrade are saved interactive reports kept?
Martin

I have been experiencing lost saved "as Named Report" Interactive reports, whenever I migrate the application from test to prod.
To clarify how we operate.
We have a test APEX environment that is separate to production. The Test app has a different App_id but uses the same schema name. In test the application Id is 1xxx (eg 1201) and in test 2xxx (2201). I export Test 1201 and then import into Prod changing the App_id to overwrite 2201. I always lose the saved reports. I just tried an experiment of creating the saved report in Test and seeing if it migrates to prod, but of course it does not.
How should I operate the two different Test and Prod environment to be "best practice" and not lose "as Named Report" Interactive report saved by the end-user?
thanks Peter

*what are the step by step events trigger in interactive report*

Hi gurus,
pls explain event by event triggers in interactive report.
points will be rewarded.
Thanks,
Balakrishna.

Hi,
Interactive reporting allows the user to participate in retrieving and presenting data at each level during the session. Instead of presenting one extensive and detailed list with cluttered information, with interactive reporting you can create a condensed basic list from which the user can call detailed information by positioning the cursor and entering commands.
Detailed information is presented in secondary lists. A secondary list may either overlay the basic list completely or appear in an additional dialog window on the same screen. The secondary list can itself be interactive again. The basic list is not deleted when secondary list is created.
User can interact with the system by:
u2022     Double clicking or pressing F2
u2022     Selecting menu option
Like classical report, the interactive report is also event driven. Both the action mentioned above trigger events and code is written to handle these events. The events triggered by this action are as follows:
u2022     At line-selection
u2022     At user-command
u2022     Top-of-Page During Line-Selection for Secondary Page Header info
Interactive report consists of one BASIC list and 20 secondary list. Basic list is produced by START-OF-SELECTION event. When the user double clicks on the basic list or chooses the menu option, the secondary list is produced. All the events associated with classical report except end-of-page are applicable only to basic list.
AT LINE-SELECTION event
Double clicking is the way most users navigate through programs. Double clicking on basic list or any secondary list triggers the event AT LINE-SELECTION. SY-LSIND denotes the index of the list currently created. For BASIC list it is always 0. Following piece of code shows how to handle the event.
Start-of-selection.
Write: / u2018this is basic listu2019.
At line-selection.
Write : u2018this is first secondary listu2019.
In this case the output will be displayed on basic list i.e.
This is basic list.
When user double clicks on this line, the event at line-selection gets triggered and secondary list is produced, i.e. This is first secondary list.
You can go back to basic list by clicking on F3 or back icon on the standard tool bar. For this list, the value of sy-lsind will be 1.
HIDE technique
In this case thins are much simpler. Consider the case, wherein you display fields from table sflight in basic list. When user double clicks on any sflight-carrid, you are displaying the detailed information related to that particular carrid on secondary list. Hence there is a need to store the clicked carrid in some variable. So that you can access this carrid for next list. ABAP/4 has facility; a statement called HIDE, which provides the above functionality.
HIDE command temporarily stores the content of clicked field in system area.
Syntax:
HIDE <FIELDS>.
This statement stores the contents of variable <f> in relation to the current output line (system field SY-LINNO) internally in the so-called HIDE area. The variable <f> must not necessarily appear on the current line.
You have to place the HIDE statement always directly after the output statement i.e., WRITE for the variable <f>. As when you hide the variable, control is passed to next record. While writing, WRITE statement takes that record from header and writes it on to the list, but when writing onto your interactive list you will miss out 1st record.
To hide several variables, use chain HIDE statement.
As soon as the user selects a line for which you stored HIDE fields, the system fills the variables in the program with the values stored. A line can be selected.
u2022     By an interactive event.
For each interactive event, the HIDE fields of the line on which the cursor is positioned during the event are filled with the stored values.
The HIDE area is a table, in which the system stores the names and values of all HIDE fields for each list and line number. As soon as they are needed, the system reads the values from the table. (Please try to find the name of this table.)
Sy-lsind indicates the index of the list and can be used to handle all the secondary lists. When the user double clicks on the line or presses F2, sy-lsind is increased by one and this new sy-lsind can be handled. For example:
Write: / u2018this is basic listu2019.
u2022     Will create a basic list.
If sy-lsind = 1.
Write: / u2018this is first secondary listu2019.
Elseif sy-lsind = 2.
Write: / u2018This is second secondary listu2019.
Endif.
When this code is executed,
u2022     Basic list is produced.
u2022     When the user clicks on the basic list, sy-lsind becomes one.
u2022     AT LINE-SELECTION event is triggered.
u2022     Whatever is written under IF Sy-lsind = 1, gets executed.
u2022     Secondary list is produced.
u2022     Again if user clicks on this list, sy-lsind becomes two.
u2022     AT LINE-SELECTION gets triggered.
u2022     Code written under IF Sy-lsind = 2, gets executed.
A sample program for AT LINE-SELECTION.
AT USER-COMMAND
When the user selects the menu item or presses any function key, the event that is triggered is AT USER-COMMAND, and can be handled in the program by writing code for the same. The system variable SY-UCOMM stores the function code for the clicked menu item or for the function key and the same can be checked in the program. Sample code would look like
AT USER-COMMAND.
Case sy-ucomm.
When u2018DISPu2019.
        Select * from sflight.
        Write sflight-carrid, sflight-connid.
        Endselect.
When u2018EXITu2019.
     LEAVE.
If GUI status, suppose you have set menu bar for two items and the function code is u2018DISPu2019 and u2018EXITu2019 respectively. If the user clicks the menu item u2018DISPLAYu2019, then function code u2018DISPu2019 is stored in the sy-ucomm and whatever is written under the when u2018DISPu2019, gets executed. This is applicable for EXIT as well.
Sy-lsind for the screen increases when the user clicks the menu item.
Usually you have combination of all the three navigations in your user interface, i.e., you have to create menu bar, assign function code for the function keys and write code to handle all this in addition to handling double clicking.
Things to remember while using all the combinations:
u2022     Sy-lsind increases even if you select menu-item.
u2022     When the user double clicks on particular line, value of sy-ucomm is u2018PICK.
u2022     If you set sy-lsind = 2 for your 4th secondary list, when control is transferred to the 2nd secondary list, all the other lists after 2nd are lost or memory allocated to them is lost.
u2022     Sy-lisel also gives you the value of clicked line but in this case you cannot differentiate between field. To retrieve the exact field, you have to know the field length of each field.
u2022     If you use statement SY-LSIND = 1.
The system reacts to a manipulation of SY-LSIND only at the end of an event, directly before displaying the secondary list. So, if within the processing block, you use statements whose INDEX options access the list with the index SY-LSIND, make sure that you manipulate the SY-LSIND field only after processing these statements. The best way is to have it always at the `as the last statementu2019 of the processing block.

Bhaskar

Interactive Report Subscriptions

Apex Version: 4.1.1.00.23
Internet Explorer 7
Oracle Database Version 10.2
Server Linux
I have not seen a viable solution to this issue of subscriptions being wiped out when exporting from a development environment to a production environment. I understand internal ids will be different and I shouldn't have to write a bunch of code to try to offset the numbers as I have seen in some posts.
When exporting I am exporting the entire application.
Under the export preferences I am setting all to Yes. Still no subscriptions.
I have even tried to do an export/import of the wwv_flow_worksheet_notify and get error: Parent key not found. I don't know what parent key is failing.
I have looked at the export file searching for wwv_flow_api.create_worksheet_notify. It is not there.
I need a solution ASAP. I have to manually recreate each subscription for the end user, that is if I remember to capture it before I import it!
Thanks so much,
Becky

Hello Becky,
While exporting from DEV you should set NO for following options
<li> Export Private Interactive Reports
<li> Export Interactive Report Subscriptions
Because, Private Reports and Subscriptions will be made by end-users and they will be made on Prod systems. So if you export them from DEV and import into PROD, then all private reports and subscriptions will be lost on PROD.

Open document from interactive report

Application Express version 4.0.2.00.07.
In apex I am trying to accomplish the following:
1. create a link to a pdf or Word document stored on local network using the file browse button.
2. store the link to that file in my table but not store the actual document in the oracle table.
3. open the document from link in interactive report.
My dba does not want to store anymore documents into oracle because of performance issues we are experiencing with current applications that do this. Does anyone know the where to find sample code that will accomplish this task or will load the linked document into the oracle table but delete the document from the blob when the document is closed.

You're probably looking to use the BFILE functionality - a pointer to a LOB on the filesystem.

Questions on Interactive Report Icons

When I created an Interactive Report, rectangular icons have been automatically created on the left side of the report on every line.
When clicked one of the icons, it displays the details of the line in vertical order.
Here are my questions:
1. When I've hidden some columns in the interactive report and clicked the icon, it does not display hidden column details. But I want to hide those columns only in the report but displays all details when the icon is clicked. How can I do this?
2. How can I hide the icons?
3. How can I use the icons not to display line details but to direct to an editable page to edit the same details?
Thanks,
Guy

Hello
1. When I've hidden some columns in the interactive report and clicked the icon, it does not display hidden column details. But I want to hide those columns only in the report but displays all details when the icon is clicked. How can I do this?You can create another region, or page that will show your row description by identifier or rowid. You can do this by changing Link Column type to "Link to Custom Target"
2. How can I hide the icons?Go to Interactive Report -> Link Column -> Link Column change to (Exclude Link Column)
3. How can I use the icons not to display line details but to direct to an editable page to edit the same details?The same as answer 1.
Best Regards, Kostya Proskudin!
