Is i possible to base a report on a pl/sql stored procedure

Is i possible to base a report on a pl/sql stored procedure?
If Yes please give directions on how to do it.

Hello Morten,
In Reports 9i, with new feature JDBCPDS its possiable to create a report against a existing stored procedure.
Using JDBCPDS, user can access any JDBC-enabled data source. You can access database like Oracle, DB2, Sybase, ODBC Data Sources, etc using supporting
JDBC Drivers. User can also connect ODBC Data Sources like SQL Server, MS-Access, Excel etc.
User can create a JDBC Query angainst a SQL Query or Stored Procedure in any of mentioned dataSource.
Following is the syntax of the Oracle Stored Procedure, which can be used as Data Source with JDBCPDS.
Steps to create a JDBCPDS Report through Report Builder : http://otn.oracle.com:8877/reports/help/ - > JDBCPDS- > How To
//----------Package definition for Ref cursor ----------/
package test_Procedure as
type empcurProcedure5 is ref cursor;
end test_tryProcedure5;
// -----------Procedure definition ---------//
test_Procedure(p_emp_cv out test_tryProcedure5.empcurProcedure5,
p1 in NUMBER) is
begin
update emp set sal=sal + 50 where deptno > P1
open p_emp_cv for select * from emp where deptno > P1;
end test_Procedure;
Procedure first parameter will be Ref Cursor and will be used to return the resultSet to JDBC Query.
User should create first this procedure in Database. Then in JDBC Query Dialog, user can call this stored procedure by specifying procedure name.
test_Procedure(40)
Please see ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf/jdbcpds.conf for more Connection and
JDBC-Driver information.

  • Crystal Report Source is MS SQL Stored Procedure Causes Login Popup

    My environment is this:  Visual Studio 2010 with CRforVS_13_0_9 installed.  MS SQL Server is source for all report data.  I use three different databases for all my reports.
    I have a number of working CR reports that work fine in IDE and at runtime.  However, one report works in IDE report designer Main Report Preview but does not work at runtime.  Instead, it pops up the Database Login dialog box.  This particular report is the only one that I have that uses a Stored Procedure for report source data.  The following code is used for all reports.  Can someone please help me to identify what is causing this anomaly?

    Check what else is different with the report:
    1) Connection type (ODBC vs. OLEDB, vs. Native, etc)
    2) Check for subreports
    3) Check that the report uses the SQL Native 10 Driver
    Enable the report options "Verify on 1st refresh" and "Verify stored procedure on 1st refresh".
    Comment out the db logon code as well as the parameter code and let the report prompt. Does that work?
    If it does, add the db logon code but leave the param code commented out. Does that work?

  • How to create a report with a PL/SQL Stored Procedure method

    Hi,
    We are working in oracle applications 11i on oracle database 9i.
    I have a custom procedure that is used to send Payslip SMS messages to staff.
    I am thinking about creating a request for that procedure so the HR user can run it himself at the end of every month from the HR responsibility.
    any hints , guidelines or references will be appreciated...
    thanks...

    See the example in MOS Doc 73492.1 (Creating a PL/SQL Concurrent Program in Oracle Applications)

  • Creating XML report using PL/SQL Stored Procedure

    Hi Friends,
    I am working on an xml report with the xml source as PL/SQL Stored Procedure.
    I am referring the exercise shown in the following link to understand the process:
       http://orclapp.blogspot.com/2012/02/developing-xml-publisher-report-using.html
    In the example shown in the above link I could not understand the following:
    1) In the following procedure, the out parameter 'retcode' is not used at all.
       What is the importance of this parameter.
        PROCEDURE REPORT (errbuf  OUT VARCHAR2, retcode  OUT VARCHAR2, p_product_id   IN     NUMBER)
    2)  After the xml data is prepared and put to 'l_result' Clob variable, the following
        Loop is executed. I am not able to appreciate why the following loop is required.
         LOOP
             EXIT WHEN l_length = l_retrieved;
             IF (l_length - l_retrieved) < 32000
             THEN
                SELECT SUBSTR (l_result, l_retrieved + 1) INTO l_xmlstr FROM DUAL;
                l_retrieved := l_length;
                fnd_file.put_line (fnd_file.output, l_xmlstr);
             ELSE
                SELECT SUBSTR (l_result, l_retrieved + 1, l_offset)
                  INTO l_xmlstr
                  FROM DUAL;
                l_retrieved := l_retrieved + l_offset;
                fnd_file.put_line (fnd_file.output, l_xmlstr);
             END IF;
         END LOOP;
    3) In the example it is not explained how the concurrent program gets the xml data?
       I assume it is written to a file using the following line of code:
        fnd_file.put_line (fnd_file.output, l_xmlstr);
       I would appreciate if anyone can throw some light into my above queries so that I can understand the process clearly.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi 32000 in the code is a 'safe' size smaller than the max available 32767, the loops purpose is to move through the entire thing in chunks that will be manageable in the limits of the data type.
    Btw; if you are in Oracle e-business suite then you can also use Oracle reports very simply to create XML output.
    If you have reports developer all you need to do is put raw sql (without any 'artifice' to create XML) in the report SQL and then set the reports output to XML in the program definition in Oracle e-business.
    best regards,
    Robert.

    hi,
    Finally Figured Out Here....
    Steps to Call the Stored Procedure In Actuate 7
    1 – Right Click on Content – Frame and go to properties and method Tab.
         1 – Click on New Button to you create own custom method.
         2 – Write the following code :
    Sub runProc(procName as String, connection As AcDBConnection )
         Dim statement As AcDBStatement
         Dim results as string
         Set connection = GetConnection()
         'Prepare statement
         Set statement = connection.Prepare("BEGIN " & procName & "; END;" )
              If statement Is Nothing Then
                   results = "Failed to prepare statement."
                   results = results & " " & connection.GetSpecificErrorText( )
                   results = results & " " & connection.GetGeneralErrorText( )
                   MsgBox "Procedure Not Called....Badddddd"
                   Exit sub
              End If
         ' Execute sprocoutparam
              If statement.Execute() = 0 Then
                   results = "Stored procedure " & procName & "execution failed."
                   results = results & " " & connection.GetSpecificErrorText( )
                   results = results & " " & connection.GetGeneralErrorText( )
                   MsgBox "Procedure Not Called....Badddddd" & results
              Else
                   results = "Stored procedure " & procName & " execution success."
                   MsgBox "Procedure Called....Wowwww"
              End if
              ShowFactoryStatus(results)
    End Sub2 – Now let call the stored procedure before our actual report query runs.
         1 - Right Click on Content – Frame and go to properties and method Tab.
         2 - Select the Start Method and Click on Override button.     
         3 - Write the following code:
    Sub Start( )
         Dim ProcName as String
         Dim connectionObject As AcDBConnection
         Set connectionObject = GetConnection()
         ProcName="XXTEST ()"
         runProc( ProcName, connectionObject )
        Super::Start ( )
    End Sub3 – Now design your report as usual using the Textual Query window.

  • Is it possible to pass TABLE as the output parameter in stored procedure

    Hey Experts,
      Is it possible to pass TABLE as the output parameter in stored procedure.
    eg
    create procedure spGetData
    @tableName as TABLE(intValue INT NOT NUL)
    as 

    You can use OPENQUERY or OPENROWSET, as mentioned above, to make stored procedure results table like. There are
    some limitations with these methods:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188427.aspx
    In OPENQUERY this-sql-server-instance can be used instead of a linked server name. It requires setting data accces server option:
    exec sp_serveroption @server = 'PRODSVR\SQL2012'
    ,@optname = 'DATA ACCESS'
    ,@optvalue = 'TRUE'

  • Crystal Report with Optional Parameters from Stored Procedure

    I have a client who created a Crystal Report. This report is linked to a Stored Procedure which allows for input on two criteria. Both of these critera are static values. However, the second of these parameters is setup to allow the user to enter up to 20 values. For example, the Stored Procedure needs the CARDCODE, and a set of DOCUMENTS. So the parameters/prompts would look like this...
    BP CardCode:
    Document1:
    Document2:
    Document3:
    ...etc...
    The report will just display basic document information for those documents that were entered.
    With 8.8, these parameters were changed to be REQUIRED.... not OPTIONAL. According to SAP note 1500777, this is a known bug and will be fixed in future versions. This note also states to change the criteria for the filter. However, when using a Stored Procedure, this does not appear to be an option, as the selection is defined by the data connection (and the parameters defined in the SP).
    Am I missing something? Is there a way to make the suggetion in the above note work with my Stored Procedure?
    Or, is there another way to make these parameters optional? (Do I need to change the SP?)
    Thanks!

  • Crystal report XI - problem to use stored procedure

    When I add a stored procedure in my new report I can't see my argument (parameter). I don't know if I forget something.
    I use an Oracle database and My procedure is :
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE Rech_Objet_Dans_Vue (pNomVue VARCHAR2, pTexteVueContient VARCHAR2) AS
    --Date de création: 6 mars 2008
    --Utilisateur: turgema01
    --Procédure créée dans le but de faire une recherche dans le texte d'une vue qui est de type LONG. Comme il n'est pas possible d'effectuer
    --    une fonction sur un champ de type long, nous utilisons cette procédure pour sortir les noms des vues contenant notre critère de recherche
    -- Exemple d'utilisation : EXECUTE Rech_Objet_Dans_Vue('DEC%', '%GAC_PROJ_LOGIC%')
    -- Nous donnera le nom des vues dont le nom de la vue est comme ''dec% et dont le texte de la vue contient '%gac_proj_logic%'
    TYPE TYP_REF_CUR IS REF CURSOR ;
    CVUE TYP_REF_CUR ;
    -- Variables de réception du contenu de la requête
    TEXTlongTOchar VARCHAR2(32767);
    NomVue ALL_VIEWS.view_name%TYPE ;
    BEGIN
      OPEN CVUE FOR 'Select view_name, TEXT From all_views WHERE OWNER = ''FMDTEST'' AND view_name LIKE '''|| pNomVue ||'''';
       LOOP
         FETCH CVUE INTO NomVue,TEXTlongTOchar ;
      --TEXTlongTOchar := SUBSTR(TEXTlongTOchar, 1, 254); Inutile d'afficher le code de la vue puisque qu'on ne peut afficher plus de 254 caractères
      IF TEXTlongTOchar LIKE pTexteVueContient THEN
         DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (NomVue);
      END IF;
       EXIT WHEN CVUE%NOTFOUND;
    END LOOP;
    CLOSE CVUE;
    END;

    It's been a while since I've looked at Oracle stored procedures, but I recall specifying a cursor in the first argument, from which Crystal retrieves the data. 
    Subsequent parameters are used to pass data into the stored proc, and should be exposed in the designer. 
    Example that I have:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE vantech IS
        TYPE cursor_weak   IS REF CURSOR;
        TYPE cursor_strong IS REF CURSOR RETURN tueda2%ROWTYPE;
    END vantech;
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE tueda2_sp_strong (
        tueda2_cursor IN OUT vantech.cursor_strong,
        tueda2_id    IN      tueda2.id%TYPE ) AS
    BEGIN
        OPEN tueda2_cursor FOR
            SELECT *
            FROM tueda2
            WHERE tueda2.id >= tueda2_id;
    END tueda2_sp_strong;
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE tueda2_sp_weak (
        tueda2_cursor IN OUT vantech.cursor_weak,
        tueda2_id    IN      tueda2.id%TYPE ) AS
    BEGIN
        OPEN tueda2_cursor FOR
            SELECT *
            FROM tueda2
            WHERE tueda2.id >= tueda2_id;
    END tueda2_sp_weak;

  • Call a pl/sql stored procedure from a report link

    Hello everyone:
    I have a report with a link in a column, which takes you to another page and passes values to that page, but also need the link, run a stored procedure before going to the other page.
    In the Forum I found cases similar to this, but none of the examples is clear to me how I do this. It seems that the target of the link should be URL, and also I have to call the stored procedure with a javascript function.
    My questions are:
    - Is this the best method to make what I need?
    - How should be the syntax of the link that takes me to another page and run the "stored procedure"
    - How and where I put the function "javascript" to run the "stored procedure"
    BDD: Oracle 11 g
    Apex version 4.1
    Best regards
    Gerard

    Hi,
    Change the link to call an apex.submit process. (javascript).
    Edit:
    I've set up a basic example.
    Region 1 (just so you can see the value getting set):
    select :P27_HIDDEN item_Value
    from dual
    Region 2:
    select rownum id, dbms_random.string('U', 12) sss
    from dual
    connect by level <= 20
    item attributes for ID:
    Target: URL
    URL: javascript:apex.submit({request:'NAVIGATE', set:{'P27_HIDDEN':#ID#}});
    (P27_HIDDEN is just a hidden item i created)
    http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=54920:27
    Edit2:
    In your case, then you can just have a page process based on conditions request = expression1, expression1: NAVIGATE..... then a page branch to go to the desired page, also with the same conditions
    Edit3:
    Im not sure what examples you are referring to , as you didn't supply any links; but you mention calling the stored procedure from javascript, so would likely involve some AJAX, but imo not necessary.

  • Crystal reports, Push method using a stored Procedure

    Could someone 'PLEASE' help!  I am trying to create and populate a Crystal Report via a stored procedure in a vb.net  asp.net web site..  I have created a dataset1.xsd and I have dragged my Stored_Proc onto the dataset.  I then use the 'DataBase Expert' and select ADO.net Datasets and select my storedProcedure from dataset1 as my selected dataset.  After that I just drag the fields onto my report.  Then via ado.net shown below I populate the dataset.  I can loop through the dataset and it does get populated correctly from the stored_proc.  yet when the report pops up in a web browser the fields are empty.  I have found that this method works fine if I drag an actual table from my database onto my dataset, but I need to populate the dataset via joins and a parameter.

    Hello Scott,
    It'll be difficult to migrate CR 10 reports to SQL Server 2005, since it's not a supported combination:
    [http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/communitycs/TechnicalPapers/cr10_supported_platforms.pdf|http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/communitycs/TechnicalPapers/cr10_supported_platforms.pdf]
    Also, CR 10 will be going out of support at the end of the year, so the supported platform list will not be expanded. 
    It's not a recommended combination for production use.

  • Is it possible to trigger an error so that the running stored procedure is stopped?

    Hello all,
    I want to run an existing stored procedure and then I want to manually trigger an error/abort/interruption so see what happens and do some testing with that.
    Is it possible to manually trigger an error/abort/interruption on a running stored procedure so that it is stopped?
    If yes, how can I do that?
    I hope someone has an idea. For me it sounds not really difficult, but I just do not get the idea how to do it.
    Kind regards
    Peter

    Hello Visakh,
    I dont want to modify the existing procedure. I just want to run it and than stop it, but not with the button to stop it, but "kill" it somehow with an error (with not destroying the database).
    Nope you cant simulate an intermediate failure inside procedure code from outside. For that you have to modify the actual sp code itself
    Another way is by doing data manipulation in such a way which causes a error in procedure but for that you need to revisit the logic to ensure you do changes in such way as to cause an error

  • Call Developer 2000 Reports/Forms from PL/SQL stored proc.

    Hello all,
    I am searching for a method for a stored procedure on Oracle 8.0 to call a Oracle Developer 2000 Report or Form.
    Any suggestions,
    Thanks,
    Julian

    No offense,
    Do you mean calling a trigger in a Form or Report to fire off another of the same? Or do you mean how do I fire Forms from a Database stored procedure?
    Please I don't mean any offense, it is just hard, sometimes to say simple concepts and not sound, well, bad.
    Otherwise think about it. A Stored procedure is run inside the database, it has no idea where you client is, and doesn't know which type of client you have (X-Windows, Microsuck), and doesn't know how to fire off an app on the client.
    One concept that is hard, sometimes, to get is where things are run. Forms runs on an Apps Server (Java screens), or a client, like on a PC. Stored procedures run, usually, on a whole different box, a database server. The database server is not that well connected that it can fire off a app on a client. Try to go to a Unix database server and run a command to fire off Internet Explorer on your client!? Not real easy to do.
