Lexical Parameter

Hi all
i need to make a dynamic report using lexical parameter but in the SQL Part when I write the SQL(select name,ID from &p_where)
it gives me syntax error ....i tired to use report query builder also telling me query builder not support lexical parameter....i need help in that matter please..

To use lexical parameters in Reports, use need to specify a default value. If you don4t do this, Reports will return an error. Hope that helps you.

thanks sir,

pl/sql code &c_source_from is
function C_source_fromFormula return VARCHAR2 is
begin
if :P_source_type_id = 2 then return(',MTL_SALES_ORDERS mkts');
else if :P_source_type_id = 3 then return(',GL_CODE_COMBINATIONS gl');
else if :P_source_type_id = 6 then return(',MTL_GENERIC_DISPOSITIONS mdsp');

How to use lexical parameter in report

i want to use lexical parameter in report and pass parameter from form how it is possible in detail
A.R

Hi,
typically you fill your lexical paramter in the after-paramform-trigger out of the values of your bind-parameters (giving end users directly control over lexical parameters might not be a good idea). Inside PL/SQL a lexical parameter is referenced like bind parameters with ":". In the query it's referenced via "&" and represents a part of the query.
A simple example.
- p_deptno as bind parameter
- p_where as lexical paramter
- end user choose value for p_deptno (10,20,... or nothing)
- Trigger: if :p_deptno is not null then
:p_where := 'WHERE deptno = :p_deptno'
else
:p_where := null;
end if;
- Query select ... from emp &p_where
Regards
Rainer

Vikas,
So, is your code producing an error when your report is called? Also, it would be helpful to know your Forms and Reports versions. Is ":p_season_year" set up as a USER_PARAMETER (UP) in your report or is it a true lexical parameter (meaning you should reference it with '&' instead of ':')? If it is a UP, the typical way to pass a value to this UP from Forms is to use a ParamList object instead of the REPORT_OTHER parameter of the Set_Report_Object_Property built-in. For example:
DECLARE
   pl_id    ParamList;
   pl_name VARCHAR2(10) := 'REPORT34';
   v_rep VARCHAR2(1000);
   rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
BEGIN
   pl_id := Get_Parameter_List(pl_name);
   IF id_null(pl_id) THEN
      pl_id := Create_Parameter_List(pl_name);
   END IF;
   Add_Parameter(pl_id, 'P_SEASON_YEAR', TEXT_PARAMETER, :SALE_ORDER.SEASON_YEAR);
   repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT( 'REPORT34' );
   v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid, pl_id);
   ... rest of your code here ...
END;Hope this helps,

Lexical Parameter help

Hello,
In my beforereport trigger, I have Lexical parameter defined as:
:LP_CUSIP := 'WHERE F.TS_CUSIP = SUBSTR(A.FUND_CUSIP,1,9) AND F.TS_CUSIP = SUBSTR('||''||:PM_FUND||''||',1,9)
But It gives a REP-1401 :'beforereport': Fatal PL/SQL error occured.
ORA-06502 : PL/SQL : numeric or value error.
But the query works fine with :
where
f.ts_cusip = substr(a.FUND_CUSIP,1,9)
and f.ts_cusip = SUBSTR('351899992000',1,9)
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

hi,
How are you building the query in the data model?
I'd do this in the data model:
select
from
where ...(another conditions you have or 1=1) &lp_cusip
And in the "after parameter form",I'd put this code:
:LP_CUSIP := 'and F.TS_CUSIP = SUBSTR(A.FUND_CUSIP,1,9) AND F.TS_CUSIP = SUBSTR('||''''||:PM_FUND||',1,9)'||'''';
aguero
================
Gives the compilation error

Passing Condition as lexical parameter

Hi All,
I am developing one XML report by using XML Dtata templet.
I have the require ment like to check the cdition on bassis of the USER Parameter value if the parameter is null then place the min and max value of the column.

Could any body please help me fixing this issue...

Nihaapps,
It seems like you are missing a default value for p_where. If data templates have the same requirements as RDFs, then lexicals must have a default value that will be valid when the query is verified. The query would have to be checked for validity, and to do that, it has to fill in a value where &p_where is.

Run Report with Pass Number and Varchar Lexical Parameter values

Dear Sir/Madam
Due to an urgent change required to a report I would most appreciate it if you can please advise me if it is possible to get this report working by either passing in multiple lexical parameters or one signle lexical parameter when calling the SRW.RUN_REPORT command with the following methods:
Firstly: When calling report with a run_no and spr_cd passed in through one lexical:
cmd_line: REPORT=D:\DEV\REMITTANCE.rdf BACKGROUND=YES BATCH=NO DESFORMAT=PDF DESTYPE=FILE DESNAME=D:\DEV\REMITTANCE.pdf
CP_L_PARAM=RUN_NO=TO_NUMBER(28) AND SPR_CD=SUPP1
Both with a TO_NUMBER and without, whereby I attempt to do a SUBSTR within the query of the called report to derive the RUN_NO Oracle Reports fails to accept the SUBSTR.
Secondly: I am now trying to call the with passing two lexical parameters into the report as follows:
cmd_line: REPORT=D:\DEV\REMITTANCE.rdf BACKGROUND=YES BATCH=NO DESFORMAT=PDF DESTYPE=FILE DESNAME=D:\DEV\REMITTANCE.pdf
CP_L_RUN_NO=||TO_CHAR(lv_run_no)|| CP_L_SPR_CD=||lv_spr_cd;
NOTE: The above is an output of the actual command line and not what is passed into the command line, thus the quotes are missing. Please also note that the report is running fine with the only a hard coded RUN_NO value PASSED without the SPR_CD.
Unfortunately this is also causing issues as the RUN_NO is a number and as you know you can only pass in strings.
Your urgent help is required on this matter please as our client is expecting a solution this afternoon.
Hope to hear form you soon.
Kind regards

Problem when using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT and passing in lexical parameter

Hi,
I got a blank page with error "An error has occured while trying to use this document" when I tried to use web.show_document and passing a lexical parameter to 10g report on 10gAS. The URL in the web.show_document is:
http://<srvname>:<portnum>/reports/rwservlet?server=repserver90&report=myrpt.rdf&destype=Cache&desformat=pdf&userid=<usr>/<pw>@<db>&where_clause=where%20product_type%20in%20('REPORT')
If I change the desformat to htmlcss, it is fine to display the report. But doesn't work with desformat=pdf. The pdf file has been generated in the cache. Why can't it display on the screen.
Also I tried to use double quote the value for where_clause. The pdf report showed up. But it ignored the where clause.
Experts please help.

I use lexical parameters and they work fine, but I use a parameter list. The code is contained in a form that is called by all forms that wish to run a report. This way you only need the logic for printing in a single form. If you want the form, email me at [email protected]

How to define Lexical Parameter in Oracle report.

Dear all,
I need to know that how i will define lexical parameter in query of report builder
i have like this
SELECT R.EXCEPTION_MESSAGE EXP_MESSAGE,
ER.PROD_ID PRODUCT,
ER.TNAME SEGMENT1 ,
DECODE(R.STATUS,'Y','ROW',
'L','TABLE',
'Z','CIB LEVEL',
NULL) STATUS,
NVL(COUNT(*),0) CNT
FROM EXCEPTION_RECORDS ER,CIB_PROC_TABLES_RULES R
WHERE ER.TABLE_ID=R.CIB_TABLE_ID
AND ER.EXP LIKE '%'||R.EXCEPTION_MESSAGE||'%'
AND ER.BRWR=:v_brwr
&v_where
GROUP BY R.EXCEPTION_MESSAGE,ER.PROD_ID,ER.TNAME,R.STATUS
ORDER BY 2
It is giving an error

V_WHERE should be defined same way as regular parameter. It should acquire certain value that makes the query syntaxically correct bofore the sql is run, usually in the After Param Form trigger, e.g.
v_where := 'WHERE 1=1';
...

Lexical Parameter in subquery?

Is it possible?
select * from ( select a,b,c from t where &p_where ) where a>1
It doesn't seem to like this construct - is there a proper way to do this? p_where will be built based on the parameters selected at runtime.
Thanks,
stephan

Did you supply an initial value for "p_where"? If it is NULL, your sub-query will be invalid because Reports Builder will see it as (note the missing where condition):
select * from ( select a,b,c from t where ) where a>1You could supply an initial value such as "1=1", or, you could remove the key word "where" from the subquery and put it in the lexical parameter:
select * from ( select a,b,c from t &p_where ) where a>1Ah, I see dmars beat me to the punch.

Lexical Parameter in Oracle Reports . . .

Hi all,
I am trying to pass a value to a query in oracle reports . . .
the use of the parameter is to add 2 additional columns to an existing query, if a bind parameter is set to 'Yes' else the parameter carries a value NULL;
Here is the code I have written in After Parameter Form:
if :P_ROLL_DETAIL_PRN='Yes' then
:P_CUSTOM_CODE:=NULL;
:P_CUSTOM_CODE:=:P_CUSTOM_CODE||'wdd.LOT_NUMBER' ||','||'wdd.SUBLOT_NUMBER';
else
:P_CUSTOM_CODE:='';
end if;
P_Roll_detail is the bind parameter . . and P_CUSTOM_CODE is the Lexical Parameter . ..
It works for value 'No' of P_ROLL_DETAIL .. . but for Value 'Yes' I get an error . . .
REP-0499: Column '' selected by the query is incompatible with report defination
Kindly help...
Regards
Jagan

Lexical parameters can not be used to change the number of selected columns. Consider selecting max number of columns always, but populating last two columns with either NULL values or table columns based on the parameter. Also, manipulations can be done in the layout model using format triggers.

Lexical parameter in bi report

Hi All,
I have a requirement as below :
I have a select query in my XML file which is returning two rows for a order
ex: select email,fax,order_number from
oe_order_headers_all
hz_contact_points,
My requirement is i need to pass 3 parameters such as order_number, email, fax to the report in that case it should take only the parameters what i am passing, and it should not take the hz_contact_points table from the query
so i need to achieve this through lexical parameter, any one please help me on this.
Thanks

i think you didn't read that i'm mentioned
in datatemplate
<parameters>
<parameter name="P_YOUR_PARAM" dataType = "number" defaultValue="0"></parameter>
</parameters>
<sqlStatement name="Q_DATA">
<![CDATA[
select &your_columns
from &your_tables
where &your_where_clause
]]>
</sqlStatement>
</dataQuery>
<dataTrigger name="beforeReportTrigger" source="XX_YOUR_PKG.BeforeReport"/>
<dataStructure>
...in package
FUNCTION BeforeReport RETURN BOOLEAN IS
BEGIN
IF P_YOUR_PARAM = 'some_value' THEN
your_columns := 'column1, column2';
your_tables := 'table1, table2';
your_where_clause := 'table1.id = table2.id';
ELSE
your_columns := 'column3, column4';
your_tables := 'table2, table3';
your_where_clause := 'table2.id = table3.id';
END IF;
END;you can use another way - create your xml output by package like
fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.output, '<ROWSET>');
fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.output, '<ROW>');
fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.output, '<DAT>' || some_value || '</DAT>');
fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.output, '</ROW>');
fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.output, '</ROWSET>');in package you can use all that you want

Lexical Parameter in report 10g

i want to call a report with few fields on my form. i create 2 user parameter which works fine. now i want to create a lexical parameter so that if null no problem report should appear with 2 user parameters but if has values then report should be called according to those parameter values.
I use this in my form:
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'PBRANCHCODE='||:txtBranchCode||' PPERIOD='||:cmbPeriod||' CLASSCONDITION='||'cla_class_id between 1 and 2'||' paramform=no');
CLASSCONDITION is a lexical parameter which is called in report sql:
and periodic_branch_id = :pBranchCode
and periodic_period_from = :pPeriod
&ClassCondition
it says unable to run report
when i test using paramform=no then it shows in classcondition parameter only and and nothing after space assuming parameter list ended.
Please help me in passing a lexical parameter to report
Thanx in advance.

I want to append the where condition of the report. if values inputed from Form in the class ids from and to text boxes appended as a where condition in the report query otherwise excluded
Report Query
select *
from ...
where
and .....
and ....
&ClassCondition
and i want to pass &classcondition parameter the below condition
and class_id between :fromclass and :toclass
Hope you understand.

Lexical Parameter in Reports 6i Program Unit

A report I'm writing requires me to use the lexical parameter in a program unit rather than a query in the data model. Lexical parameters in a query have always worked with the example "WHERE &my_parameter". But using "WHERE :my_parameter" or "WHERE &my_parameter" in a program unit gave me the error "expression is of wrong type" so the code wouldn't compile in the editor.
The parameter returns "segment1 = '8675309' AND segment2 = 'Jenny'I was able to resolve it by using the first column of the expression and the replace function on the parameter so the program unit editor thinks it's a valid expression and the resulting line is a valid predicate that gets the correct data. Here's my example:
WHERE segment1 = replace(:my_parameter, 'segment1 = ')The replace function strips off the "segment1 = " from the lexical parameter so the resulting line that gets passed to the server is:
WHERE segment1 = '8675309' AND segment2 = 'Jenny'This solution will not work where the parameter could return something other than "segment1 = " at the beginning of the parameter string like "segment1 BETWEEN " or a different column name to compare other than segment1. Anyway, this is working but if there are better ways to do it I'd like to try them. Using Reports 6i with EBS 11.5.10.2.

Hello,
You'll find explanations and examples here :
http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/reports/10.1.2/topics/htmlhelp_rwbuild_hs/rwwhthow/whatare/dmobj/sq_a_lexical_references.htm
This documentation is for Reports 10.1.2 but is valid for Reports 6i too ...

Generation of XML Tags for columns in Lexical parameter in select query

Hi,
I have lexical parameter in my select statement of my data model in the report.
How do i generate XML tags for these columns inside a Lexical Parameter?
Simple Example: I have data model query as follows:
SELECT msi.inventory_item_id
&LP_SELECT
FROM mtl_system_items_b
Here my lexical Parameter LP_SELECT is generated in before report trigger as follows in my report:
:LP_SELECT := 'msi.segment1,msi.description';
So, the question is how to generate XML Tags for columns in Lexical Parameter(as in the example above, i need XML tags for these columns - segment1 and description)
Thanks,
Ratan

try this
Select &order data_show
from oe_order_headers_all
where order_number ='7889'
and setting :order:='order_number'; in after parameter form trigger.
Hope this helps
