Interactive Reports - problem with umlaute like 'ü'

Hello,
when i display an interactive report, all data and umlaute like "ü" was display correct.
But when i set an filter like "häuser" and then press search, the filtertext was changed to: 'hÃ¤user'.
Is this a language or character-set problem of the ajax engine?
thank you for any hint.
Daniel

Interactive Report - problem with export by email

Hi,
We're upgrading to Apex 4.0 and we encountered a problem with the email export in html format for the Interactive Reports. The french accents are displayed with some weird symbols in the HTML file.
When I export directly in html from my report instead of the email, the accents are fine. So the problem must be the encoding of the email which is set to UTF-8. Our database use WE8MSWIN1252 encoding for the NLS Characterset.
Without changing our NLS Characterset, is there something I can do to correct this ?
Thanks

Hi Denes,
The administrator have created a mapping table,and they send me this two lines in JMT.conf file:
/htmldb-test /i/fck/*
/htmldb-test /pls/*
The error still exists,i would like to know if these two lines generate a kind of confusion in any treatment of filtre in interactive report.

Interactive Report - aggregate with hide - bug or feature?

We are in the process of converting existing reports to Interactive Reports (IR), and adding a bunch of new ones. We ran into a roadblock when using IR with aggregates. To
reproduce, I created a test table with region, state, county, city and population columns. I created an interactive report, CONTROL BREAK on "Region", aggregate (SUM) on
population. The result looked like this.

Result #1:

Region: West
************
State County City Population
CA Orange County Irvine 100
CA Orange County Orange 200
CA Los Angeles Hollywood 300
CA Los Angeles Universal City 400
 Sum 1,000
When I clicked on City column, and chose to hide it, I expected the IR to resummarize the result to look like this:

Result #2:

Region: West
************
State County Population
CA Orange County 300
CA Los Angeles 700
 Sum 1,000
But what I saw was this:

Result #3:

Region: West
************
State County Population
CA Orange County 100
CA Orange County 200
CA Los Angeles 300
CA Los Angeles 400
 Sum 1,000
The data in the above result #3 is not presented the in way it should be for the users to comprehend.

In the non-interactive version, we display checkboxes for the users to show and hide the columns. If the column "City" is set by the user to "Hide", then we use the
condition on the column to hide the City column from the report, and use the query "SELECT ..., CASE WHEN :P10_SHOW_CITY = 'YES' THEN city ELSE NULL END As city, SUM
(population) FROM .. " to summarize the data. This displays results like the one shown in Result #2.

1. Shouldn't IR re-summarize the data to display results like I have shown in Result #2 when a column is hidden? We are able to achieve this with non-interactive version. Is this a
bug in IR?

2. Is there a way to get interactive report to display results like the way I have shown in Result #2?

3. Is there a way to retrieve the columns that are set to "HIDE" in IR so that we can modify our SQL to resummarize?

Script to reproduce:

Create table test_ir(
 region varchar2(50),
 state varchar2(50),
 county varchar2(50),
 City varchar2(50),
 population number(4))
insert into test_ir(region, state, county, city, population) values
('West', 'CA', 'Orange County', 'Irvine', 100)
insert into test_ir(region, state, county, city, population) values
('West', 'CA', 'Orange County', 'Orange', 200)
insert into test_ir(region, state, county, city, population) values
('West', 'CA', 'Los Angeles', 'Hollywood', 300)
insert into test_ir(region, state, county, city, population) values
('West', 'CA', 'Los Angeles', 'Universal City', 400)
select region, state, county, city, population from test_ir 
Thanks.

Hi Ravi,
When you add a control break, we do not re-generate the query to do group by. We just do control breaks. In the current version of APEX, to achieve what you are trying to see, you need to create an Interactive report with group by clause. If you want to use a dynamic query, the solution I suggest will not work.
The good news is in APEX 4.0, we are working to include group by view to an Interactive Report. This will let you select group by columns and aggregate functions to get the Result #2 you are trying to get.
If you wish to see how this works, we will be able to show if you come to APEXposed 2008, October 29 - 30, at Chicago O'Hare Wyndham.

Chrome (Windows NT 6.1 6.2) users reporting problems with loading and mouseevents - any insights?

For several years now, I have created simple studies (I do psychological stuff) to run online, recruiting participants through Amazon Mechanical Turk (AMT). I have had no problems until recently (last 6 to 9 months). Now, some AMT users are reporting problems with stimuli loading or buttons not responding immediately when clicked (e.g., advancing to a new screen). What is common amongst all the users experiencing problems is that they use Chrome, and they also tend to be Windows NT 6.1 or 6.2 users running Flash Player 12.0. But not a single Firefox, Safari, or MSE user has ever reported an issue. I'm just looking for help in troubleshooting this problem. Again, the studies I run are incredibly simple (e.g., no videos being loaded from server, etc.), mostly word presentation where I record time and x,y coordinates of mouse movements as they respond to questions. Would attempting to publish for another target version of Flash Player help? The default setting is to publish the .swf and .html wrapper for Flash Player version 11.7. Any ideas? I also use version 13.0.1 of Flash Professional CC to create my studies if it helps.

This is helpful. Thanks. So it would be to my advantage to play around with something like SWFObject 2?
http://www.adobe.com/mena_fr/devnet/flashplayer/articles/swfobject.html
Or is there something else you would recommend?
What I've been doing is a far cry from actual web development, but quite interested in learning more. This swfobject seems to get at what you are suggesting (I think).

Reporting problems with iTunes

Does anyone know how to report problems with updates to iTunes to Apple? I cannot find any way to contact them to alert them to bugs and problems.

And if you're an ADC member (the Online membership is free), you can use Apple's Bug Reporter.

ABAP interactive report problem

ABAP - Interactive Report problem.
In Interactive report when I double click to one field a window arises (here sy-lsind = 0) displaying some required info. And again after double clicking the appeared window another window will open (here sy-lsind = 1). from the 2nd window I can't go to the previous window.
If there is only one way to go to the previous window is to activate the RIGHT UPPER CROSS OPTION of the particular window, then please help me giving the code or idea about how to activate it. Thanks.

HT4718 are there any reported problems with safari with the new OS X Mavericks?

My early 2008 iMac running OS X 10.9.2 all of the sudden has problems loading pages in safari. The problem timing is the same as the upgrade to Maverick. The computer is connecting to wifi and other devices such as iPhones and three PCs have no problems. The ISP is Xfinity. Are there any reported problems with Maverick and Safari?

Interactive Reports - Problem (possible bug) with button template?

Hey all,
I possibly noticed a problem with the use of the button template of the search bar in an interactive report.
When I for example choose 'Button Alternative 1' as Button template and then save my report then it looks perfect.
When I now Export/import my application, I loose the button template of my interactive report, if I open the report attributes it isn't selected anymore.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Apex version: 3.1.2.00.02
Kind regards,
Oli

Oli,
Thanks for bringing this up. One of my beta testers just called to say that two of our IRs weren't showing the Cancel or Apply buttons at all. But the third IR worked fine. In my Alpha version, all three had Buttons as the selected style, so I'm a bit confused what went wrong.
But now I'm thinking if the fact that I had multiple themes defined in the application might have caused the confusion. I didn't deploy the themes from Alpha to Beta because they were all based on Theme 13, and I thought my extensions were included in the application export (which I didn't realize until recently). I'm guessing that if I drop the extraneous themes on Alpha and re-select the button theme, I should be okay when I deploy again?
I just dropped the extra themes in my Beta and the IRs button theme was undefined again, so I'm thinking they were pointing to the wrong "button" style. Hopefully cleaning up in alpha and changing these buttons will resolve this and I won't have deployment problems!
Wish me luck!

Problem with Umlauts

Hi All,
For our customer we managed a german application inside APEX, unfortunately we have some problems with showing the umlauts in the application.
By showing a interactive report the umlauts in the data and in the column names are shown correct. But when I pressed the green wheel I saw ZurÃ¼cksetzen instead of zurucksetzen.
This problem also occured by logging into the application with a wrong password (UngÃ¼ltige ID-Daten fÃ¼r die Anmeldung) instead of Ungeltige ID Daten fur die anmeldung.
By the installation of APEX we run also the LOAD_DE.SQL script to translate the apex version. Before we run this script we set the language to german_Germany.AL32UTF8.
When I look into the HTTP server in the dads.conf file I saw the follow row: PlsqlNLSLanguage German_Germany.AL32UTF8
It seems that the problem is inside APEX instead of the application inside the APEX version (because the application shows the data correct). Is there a way to see which names are stored in the databse (to make sure that the data is stored correctly)?
Has anybody an idea how to fix this problem?
We have an Oracle 11G Database with apex version 3.2 and an HTTP Server.

I find a solution for this problem.
Below the steps we did to fix this issue
I first checked the dads.conf, if you’re weblogic is correctly configured.
Yes it was!
Then I checked, if the database is able to save Umlaute
Yes it was!
Then I checked, if the database stores the Umlaute for Apex
No it doesn't
That means, that the import (load_de) was unsuccessfull.
Then I checked the import files, which were saved on the server
Everything seems to be correct.
Then I checked other NLS related settings and found that ORA_NLS10 was set.
Although we need this setting for some reasons, it “destroyed” our load_de.sql.
Finally I unset this setting, and load the data again and now it worked.

Can Actions Menu of Interactive Reports work with Custom Authentication?

My testing is leading my to believe that Actions Menu do not work with Custom Authentication (but only work with APEX Authentication) in APEX 3.1.2? If that's true then is there a work around to this?
Just to clarify, I've posted/asked this question twice before:
1) Re: Actions Menu in Interactive Reports does not sort, filter, select cols etc
2) Interactive Report actions don't work for users (i.e. for non-developers)
But I've come to believe this is the main problem. I just don't know how to resolve/work around this?
Thanks for any help.

I haven't setup a sample because my custom authentication is using LDAP authentication. I'm not sure how I can replicate that on the samples server?
I'm using LDAP authentication with a Page Sentry function. My further testing reveals that the Page Sentry function is setting the APEX variable user to NULL (ie blank) whenever there's any code in the Page Sentry function box. PL/SQL code as simple as
BEGIN return TRUE; END;
in the Page Sentry function box sets the "user" is set to <null>. When the Page sentry function box is left empty (no code specified) it sets the "user" properly after authentication against the specified LDAP directory.
What all this has to do with Interactive Reports...
It seems like when the user is NULL it messes-up Interactive Reports that are stored in the flows database. Although it shows the default report properly, but no runtime interactive actions (filtering, sorting, column break, etc.) work.
Can someone please correct or confirm this?
Thanks.

Interactive report column with an external link - Sort, chart functions

interesting.... the message text did not make it into the post (twice). But edit seems to work.
Our problem....
We have an interactive report with a column that in some cases will contain information allowing us to build a link. We have updated the report query to return the data tagged with the <a href..... on rows that can be links. The links are displayed and function correctly. However, if we click on the column header so we do something like sort, the page hangs. If we try to create a report using this column we get an error.
We have also tried marking the column as a link in the IR definition. With that design, the sort and reporting isn't an issue, but all the rows are links, which is not what we need.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?
Thanks, Nann
Edited by: Nann on Feb 6, 2010 11:07 AM

Hi Peter,
Thanks for your suggestion. We ended up with a slight variation in the design that allowed us to mark the column as a link.
Basically we have a column just for the link.
In our query we now have 2 columns. One that builds the url, the other the text we want displayed as a link.
If that row should not have a link in it the query returns null for both columns.
We only display the link column in the report.
We use the url column in the link definition .
We've disabled the sort and other functions on this column.
All works as we wanted.
Thanks
Nann

Interactive Report filtering with hidden item column names

I have created an Interactive Report and changed some of the default column headings by using hidden Items with appropriate title. However, when I look at the filter option in the "Gear" drop-down, the only column names which appear are the default ones. There are blank lines for the columns using hidden Items. Any suggestions for having the hidden item content appear in the filter column name list?
Thanks,
George

George,
What is it you're actually trying to do here? Maybe there's an easier way?
Hidden items aren't going to show up in the Column List.
I'm guessing you're trying to separate a long list of column names using '----------' or something like that? We're looking to do just that in our application, but obviously we don't want to users selecting these dummy entries. We tried using the IR column groups, but those make the list look even more cluttered IMHO. (Plus setting the sort order w/in the groups doesn't seem to affect the drop-down column lists, which seems counter-intuitive to me).
If anyone has other suggestions for breaking up the column list display, I could use something immediately (going into beta-test in 2 weeks!).
Thanks,
Stew

Interactive Report, issue with backgroud color of Column Heading.

Hi,
I am using Theme -16
and there is a Interactive Report with the following columns Headings
Employee Name Employee No DOB
Now, the label of the first column is changed from Employee Name to Employee name.
The column heading is now displayed as follows.
Employee Employee No DOB
Name problem is when I add a break in any of the column heading..the background color of the column headings is different than the first one (little bit darker).
Why the background ground of the column heading is different in both these cases??.
Thanks,
Deepak

Why the background ground of the column heading is different in both these cases??.The report heading background is controlled by the CSS rule
.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA th {
background: #4e4e4e;
font-weight: bold;
color: #fff;
border-top: 1px #ccc solid;
border-bottom: 1px #aaa solid;
white-space: nowrap;
vertical-align: center;
letter-spacing: 1;
font-size: 8pt;
background-image: url(../ws/report_bg.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
}This uses a [gradient image|http://apex.oracle.com/i/ws/report_bg.gif] that is repeated horizontally to provide a shaded background from light to dark grey. As the background image doesn't repeat vertically, when the height of the heading is more than the height of the image the gradient is replaced by the underlying background colour (#4e4e4e). This is what's happening when the break is inserted into the header text: the height of the heading increases, causing more of the darker area of the background image/underlying colour to be visible.

Interactive report - Problem in coming back to the same cursor position

Hi,
I have an interactive report. In the first list of the output, a set of data will be displayed. In that first list, if I double click on a field, it goes to a Custom Screen. There, I have to enter some data and save and come back to the first list of the output. This is what my report does.
I have no issues when the output in the first list is one page. But, when I have the output for more than one page I have a problem. I am going to the 2nd or 3rd page of the output. From there I double click on the field and it goes to the Custom screen. After saving the data in the screen, when I click BACK button, it displays the report from the first page again instead of displaying the output in the 3rd page where I double clicked.
My requirement is, when I come BACK from the screen to the list, the cursor should stay in the same page where I double clicked earlier. It shouldn't go to the first page of the list again.
To my knowledge, we have to use a statement in the code after displaying the output.
Could someone tell me how to do this..?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Paddu.

Have a look at the ABAP command "scroll list"... you will need to hold onto the values of sy-lsind, sy-cpage, and sy-staro prior to the call to your popup, and then after you come "BACK" from this, you will need to re-write your report followed by something like:
scroll list index gs_rpt-lsind "gs_rpt used to hold the previous SY- values
to page gs_rpt-cpage
line gs_rpt-staro.

PCA Functional Area Report Problem With Co-Product Settlements

I have built a profit center functional area report for use in a manufacturing client. The reason is because the factory cost centers flow to the product cost (via costing sheets) and the administrative cost centers are expensed monthly. However, SAP seems to have no other approach to handle the issue where common expense elements must be reported in these two separate sections. Anyway, here is my problem:
After creating the functional areas and matching them to each cost center appropriately and then applying a different functional area to orders, I see that settlement of co-products causes my report to zero out the functional area that should match the overhead cost centers. These obviously should not be impacted by settlement and I see that they are not impacted in the transactional data. However, the functional area report shows a different story. I believe it somehow has to do with the unusual way that co-product split up and settle versus other types of orders. I may need some sort of subtitution rule, but like I said, the raw transactional data looks correct and the report should bring in these values.
I used ledger 8A if that helps. I am sure I missed some small thing somewhere.
David

It looks to me like the New G/L may have taken care of some of my issue. The FI reconciliation G/L account (690000 usually) includes the secondary cost center postings as well as the secondary order postings. The cost center side of the secondary transaction reflects the functional area for cost centers (Factory Exp or Admin Exp in my case), whereas the order side of the secondary posting shows the functional area associated with order consumption (Net Consumption in our case).
This appears to mean that the standard report for Functional Areas from FI should work to break up the income statement for manufacturing purposes. This report is S_PLO_86000029. That report looks to me like it will replace my need for a PCA based Functional Area Report.
