Multi level Group Above Report

I have a multi level Group Above report like this.
School name : xxxx
Course1
Student1
Student2
Course2
Student1
School name : yyyy
etc...
No students are enrolled in some of the courses. I used the Outer Query in SQL to include those courses. Everything looks okay, except the header for the students are still appearing. how do I supress the student heading if no drecords are present?
Can somebody help me.
Thank you
David Smith

hello,
you will have to create a counter, that tells you the numbers of students (summary-column, function : count, reset on : course) and create a format-trigger on the heading that hides it when the number of students is 0.

Multi-query group above report creates more pages

Hi,
I have a multi-query group above report (paper only), the parent group creates 5 rows(subframes) all onto the same page, but then creates 4 more IDENTICAL pages!!?
at the end I have 5 repating frames and 5 pages.
If I set Maximum Records per Page to 1, I have 5 pages (IDENTICAL) with the first frame only...
any idea?
cheers
Matteo

Repeating frame hiding in Group above report with three levels of grouping

I'm working on a group above report.I have 3 levels of grouping. ex: Consider emp table
Group1: Hiring year
Group2:Manager code
Group3:Dept no
The R1 frame is refered to Group1. R2 -Group2, wich will come inside R1.
R3-Group3, which will come inside R3.
Now R3 is the inner frame, R2 is the middle frame and R1 is the outer frame.
I want to display the data of the frame R3. Based on the parameter i'm passing , I want to hide the R1 or R2. I used the format trigger, but it is hiding the inner frames also. But I want to hide only the outer frame,But I want the data of the inner frames.
all the suggesstions are welcome. Thanks in advance

Don't hide R1 and R2, i.e. don't use their trigger to display or display items. Instead, put all objects in a normal frame, and hide it depending on the parameters you meantioned.
What will happen will be somewhat like this
-- R1
|-- Frame - ( use trigger to hide depending on parameters )
| |---R1 Items
|-- R2
|---Frame - ( use trigger to hide depending on parameters )
| |---Items
|---R3
|----Frame
|---Items
I hope this helps.

Supress repeated labels in group Above reports o matrix group above reports

Hi,
I have a problem, because I´m brand new in reports.
I've defined same reports.
When I defined a Group Above Report or a Matrix with Group Above Report the labels appear repeated in the same page:
Year 2006
Level 1 Range 1-3 months 3-6 months 6-12 months
Age
< 16 1
16-17 1 3
18-24 12 6 2
25 4 5 2Total Level 1: 17 14 5
Level 2 Range 1-3 months 3-6 months 6-12 months
Age
< 16 1
16-17 2 1
18-24 8 12 2
25 5 4 3Total Level 1: 15 17 6
Is it possible not to repeat the labels "Range 1-3 months 3-6 months 6-12 months",? I want them to appear once per page.
How can I do it?
Please may anyone help me?
thanks
Beatriz

Why should that be a bug? You have a custom requirement and have to find a way to fulfill it. But, what is your actual sorting order? Do you have only this three departments? If so, you could add an addtional column in your query like
DECODE(DEPT, 20, 1, 10, 2, 30, 3, 4) SORTINGput that column in the same group as dept and sort after that new column.

Need a multi-level control break report displaying a cross-tab for each ...

I need a multi-level control break report that displays a cross-tab report for each
detail and subtotal. The individual cross-tabs are no problem. There are two issues:
1) How to get many cross-tabs (thousands) to appear in one report.
2) How to provide cross-tabs in-line on the multi-level subtotal lines.
Here is a concrete example.
Suppose the data base contains this table:
road (
id_number number, -- this is an artificial PK
city varchar2,
county varchar2,
state varchar2,
length number,
owner varchar2, -- roads may be owned by cities, counties, states, and others
surface_type varchar2 -- the surface type may be gravel, asphalt, concrete, and others
The table is populated with several million records that include every
length of road in a US city.
It is OK to suppose that all the attributes in all the records are not null.
Without the PK, there would be millions of duplicates,
which should all contribute to the summed lengths.
The report I need is like a control break report with a detail line for each
city together with subtotals for each county and state and
a grand total for the US at the end.
However, each detail and total line needs to be a cross-tab report
summing the length over the city, county, state or US
(whichever is called for at that location)
for each combination of owner and surface_type.
so the report would have the following structure:
a city cross-tab for the first city in county 1/state 1
a city cross tab for the last city in county 1/state 1
a cross-tab for count 1
a city cross tab for the first city in county 2/state 1
a city cross tab for the last city in county 2/state 1
a cross tab for state 1
a cross-tab for the US
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
This problem comes up because my client's legacy system,
which is being replaced,
already has such a report (in COBOL).
Thanks!!!
Steve
PS, I know one ugly way to do it. Namely, make a variable for each
possible combination of owner and surface. Then code an ordinary control
break report. However, I am looking for something better.

Hi Jenna_Fire,
According to your description, you have a matrix contains total for each group on each level. Now your requirement is, when you click on any number (data field or total), it will go to the detail report which returns all the detail information of the people
within the group scope. For example, if you click on the total of Active users in United States, it will return the detail information of Active users in New York and Texas. Right?
In this scenario, we should set the parameter (@Country, @State, @City) allow multiple values in both main and detail report. And in Default Value (@Country, @State, @City), query out all distinct values. In the textbox which contains
those total values, when set use these parameters to run the report, we only need to pass the parameters of parent groups. For example, if we click on the total of Active users in New York, we only need to pass Country, State, Status to detail report, and
in the detail report, the City parameter will use all distinct values (Default Values) because we don't pass the City parameter. We have tested this case with sample data in our local environment. Here are steps and screenshots for your reference:
1. Create parameter Country, State, City and Status in both main report and detail report. Set both Available Value and Default Value get values from query (Create a dataset for each parameter, use "select distinct [column] from [table]" as query). Set allow
multiple values for parameter Country, State and City in both reports.
2. In corresponding textbox, pass appropriate parameters in go to report Action.
4. Filter data in detail report (in where clause or using filters).
5. Save and preview. It looks like below:

Break Column in Group Above Report - Causing Error in Data Groupings

Since I'm required to designate at least one Break Column in my Group Above report, I created a dummy column in my SELECT statement. I did this so that I could designate the required minimum of at least one break column, but I designated one that won't have any impact on how the report is ordered, because it will be the same value (NULL) for every record. So, my SELECT statement starts out looking something like this:
SELECT
NULL break_column,
column_1 column1_name,
column_2 column2_name,
column_3 column3_name,
column_4 column4_name,
column_5 column5_name
I needed for the break column to have no impact on the ordering of the report because I need for the ORDER BY clause to completely control how the report is sorted, w/o any interference by a hard-coded break column. I need this because my intention is to make the ORDER BY clause dynamic, and a hard-coded break column with actual data would supercede the ORDER BY clause, thereby making it static.
Everything is working correctly with regard to how the report is sorting the records designated as group columns; however, the detail columns are getting all messed up as far as what main record they're grouped under.
By this I mean that when I designate only one break column, some details may display under the wrong group, where they're not supposed to. For example, each page consists of demographic info. about a specific record on a table, and the details listed under it should be the individual comments that have been made on that record. The issue I'm seeing is that for some records, it's showing comments from not only the record for that group, but it continues to list out comments made for other requests as well, when those comments should be displayed under their own respective records.
Why is this happening when I designate only one break column, and how can I keep it from doing this?

Did you get a solution for this?
I have the same problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Madhu

ThanksIf you want to display total qty for each month and you already done it. as you says..
total is getting displayed for each month.If not ,
Take a summary column at month group >> at properties .. Summary Function : Sum , Reset at month group.
and for grand total
take a summary column outside the query. >> at properties .. Summary Function : Sum , Reset at report.
Hope it works.

<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,'v_DEPTNO',DEPTNO)?>
//-- Output of master data
<?DEPTNO?>
<?DNAME?>
//-- Loop through second dataset looking vor all data suitable to the current master key
<?for-each://EMP_ROW[xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, 'v_DEPTNO')=DEPTNO]?>

Group above report problem

hi,
To get clear idea i am using emp table as an example.
I am creating a report using style GroupAbove and save it in .jsp file.
I took empno as group .

empno 7369
ename job sal comm deptno
simth clerk 800 0 20
empno 7499
ename job sal comm deptno
allen sales 1600 30 30
ramu manager 4000 0 20
and so on...

ename job sal comm deptno
raju clerk 500 0 10
empno 7599
ename job sal comm deptno
ramu worker 300 0 40
..... so on
But My result should be in this way :
page 1:
empno 7369
ename job sal comm deptno
simth clerk 800 0 20
empno 7499(problem :Here i dont want to display heading of ename.... and so on)
allen sales 1600 30 30

empno 7599
ramu worker 300 0 40
..... so on
If any one know this probelm help me soon
it's very urgent
with regard's
vijay

You may have been better to use deptno as the group column in your example, since I'm not sure that grouping on empno makes sense (and hence makes the example difficult to picture).
That said, it seems that the problem is that you only want the details headings to be displayed once per page (for a group above report). This isn't going to be too easy, and will require some coding, but bear with me.
The first thing to do is to create a PL/SQL package with a single boolean variable in it. This will be used a flag to determine whether the headers should be displayed.
In the before report trigger, set this variable to TRUE.
In the format trigger for the frame containing all the boilerplate labels, check to see if the variable is TRUE. If it is then set it to FALSE, and return TRUE.
If it's not then return FALSE (to suppress the display).
In the between pages trigger set the variable to TRUE.
Hope this helps (and that I've understood the problem),
Danny

Group above report - help please

Good Morning,
I'm trying to create a group above report that resembles the following:
LETTER TYPE: 00001
BATCH TOTAL NOREPLY
1234 3 1
2345 2 0
TOTAL VOL. FOR LETTER 00001 5
I've tried using:
select ltrtype, batch, count(reply)
from ltr
where reply = 'N'
group by ltrtype, batch
which does give me the correct figures under the NOREPLY Heading, but I can't get the correct figures for the TOTAL heading (NOTE: The figures in the TOTAL column should be a total of both the reply = 'Y' and reply = 'N' for the ltrtype and batch - the figures in the NOREPLY column should be a total of only the reply = 'N' for the ltrtype and batch.) I hope this explanation is clear
I've also tried eliminating the where clause, but then I get the correct figures under the TOTAL heading, but I can't get the correct figures for the NOREPLY heading.
I've also tried using two queries and a data link, but I couldn't get that to work either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Go to report wizard and check the groups and fields tabs. Otherwise map the repeating frames accordingly.

Is this Oracle Reports bug – "break order property" in "group above" report

Is this Oracle Reports bug – “break order property” in "group above" report
Could anybody confirm that in "group above" report, we could only order the brake column's values with ""none" or "ascending" or "descending" provided by "break order property"?
In the following example, “Dept” is brake column. Oracle Reports allows us to order values in “Dept” with “descending” provided by “break order property”:
Dept 30
job ename salary
xxx xxx xxx
xxx xxx xxx
Dept 20
job ename salary
xxx xxx xxx
xxx xxx xxx
Dept 10
job ename salary
xxx xxx xxx
xxx xxx xxx
or “ascending” provided by “break order property”:
Dept 10
job ename salary
xxx xxx xxx
xxx xxx xxx
Dept 20
job ename salary
xxx xxx xxx
xxx xxx xxx
Dept 30
job ename salary
xxx xxx xxx
xxx xxx xxx
I need to do:
Dept 20
job ename salary
xxx xxx xxx
xxx xxx xxx
Dept 10
job ename salary
xxx xxx xxx
xxx xxx xxx
Dept 30
job ename salary
xxx xxx xxx
xxx xxx xxx
Could I do this? Could anybody confirm that we could never ever do this, or If yes, how?
Millions of thanks for advice.
M.Z.

How to display different text for labels in Group Above Report Oracle Repor

Hello,
Is there a way to change the text that is displayed in Labels in a Group Above Report? For example, I have a Group Above report with my columns of data and above the columns I have my column labels, but I would like to be able to display various text, i.e. different labels based on condition. In other words, Column1 label could say Column 1 or This is Column1, based on a condition. This is Oracle Report Builder 10.1.2.0.2.
Thank you.

Yes it's possible. and your are in the right place. use this true and false. For example
/*true means display, false means don't display */
if your_criteria_or_condition is ok then
return (TRUE);
else
return (FALSE);
end if;create as many label as your need and control with the code..
Hope this works..
