Multi query reports and BI Publisher?

I have to create a report that gathers data from DB using several SQL queries - text mixed with data tables. I was not able to find anything like that in Apex 3.0 or BI Publisher. Am I missing something?
As a solution I was trying to pass more complex, hierarchical XML data structure to BI Publisher with several repeating groups that would serve my purpose. Apex seems to generate only one level XML.
Is there a way to generate XML file manually and pass it to BI Publisher?
Thank You
Janis

Does anyone have an idea on how to create multi-query report?
..or maybe how to manually create XML and pass it to BI Publisher?
Tahnk you!

Multi-query reports in Reports 3.0

When I run multi-query report in Reports 3.0 the report runs
correctly when I first load the report. However, when the report
is run for a second time the sub-queries do not appear to execute
and the report does not give a complete output, if any.

Hello Mike,
Whenever you work on multi-query reports you have to set all
the relationship within the tables. If you have not specified
then specify within the where clause.
Try this. I hop your problems get solved.

Product ID for Enterprise Query, Reporting, and Analysis package

Hi Experts,
I try to install Enterprise Query, Reporting, and Analysis package(CD number : 51033475)
Installation setup asks the Product ID,
How can i find the correct Product ID for this installation,
Regards

For Partners and SAP, the license id is contained in a word document that is in the Download Manager.
We are also trying to install this package, but it seems only the SAP drivers and not the BO Enterprise is contained in the Service Marketplace file.
Just wondering if you have experienced the same thing.
Best regards,

Multi Query Reports

Hi!
Can we have multi query reports ? reports displayed in Frames in a report???????
Imran

Hi,
yes you can have multiple query in your report. So you have multiple groups in your data model. Then you must put multiple repeating frames in your layout in order to extract data from your queries, selecting the desired group in the source property of your repeating frame.

Mapping between the query/report and the role with technical names - BI Sec

Hi,
How to find the mapping between the query/report and the role with technical names ?
Like in R/3 we can find the mapping using table AGR_TCODES or thourgh SUIM. However in BI all reports have tcode RRMX.
So. how to find the role for a given query/report like sales report with technical names?

I looked into this quite a while ago and cannot remember the exact details, but I think there were 3 tables needed together with a structure to explore with a function module, and you need to use the program ID to think them.
If you look in SQ01 then I am sure you will find one of the tables, and then search from there onward.
Alternately, while searching you might find a nice report which does this for you.
Hope that helps and let us know whether you find it.
Cheers,
Julius

Problems with reports and XML-publisher - No XML

Hi!
I'm having a problem with Apps and XML-publisher. I made a report file, which queries some views. When executing in reports, I get all the data I expect.
Now, when I upload the reportfile to Apps and let it generate XML, my xml-file is empty (well, almost empty)
<?xml version="1.0" ?>

<T03501684>
<LIST_G_PERSOON>
<LIST_G_PERSOON />
</T03501684>
Anyone who can shed any light upon this problem?

OK, finally solved the problem... A good night's sleep always helps ;).
After just trying each queried table one after an other, I found the problem:
The difference between Oracle Apps (Dutch locale) and the reports builder (English) is the language... And our functional people have changed some names, but the Dutch ones, leaving the english names in place and one of the tables I query has language specific data, which is also appears in a where clause.

Multi-Language report in XML Publisher(Its is urgent, Please help)

Hi All,
I am working on Multi-Language report. We have installed just 3 languages (English, Japaneese, Spanish) but my requirement is to display the reports in few more un-installed languages like Korea, chineese etc. I tought of doing the lables (all hard coded fields) to translate using .XLIFF file. When i try to run the report, in language settings (this is the place where the XML report takes the language input)i can see only those languages which are installed. How can pass other languages (un-installed) as a parameter in the XML report?
Please suggest. It is very urgent.
Thanks,
AS

for this functionality, i had to write a custom package to submit the request for that particualr language and set the language while setting the parameters .
Thanks.

Interactive Reports and BI Publisher

Hello all,
i am facing the problem that i have developed some applications and the only report type i used is 'interactive report'. This feature is fantastic! All end users are very happy with the possibilities the reports provide.
Now the problem: we have BI Publisher integrated in APEX as print server. But the output ind PDF and Execl is far from being satisfying. It seems to me that only filters and ordering are sent to the BI Publisher. Every single printed report is a flat table and grouping and calculations are removed.
Is there a way i don't know to create Excel-Downloads (and / or PDF-Downloads) where the structure of the report is the same as in the browser? If not, is it planned to integrate a 'real' print / publish functionality in APEX in the near future?
If you know anything please share your knowledge, because this is the sow-stopper for for my applications. The only work around i found is to use 'normal' reports, but this will leave all the end users very unhappy.
Thanks in advance,
Wolfgang
--- edit
i am using apex 3.2 and BIP 10.1.3.4.1

Wolfang,
You're correct, Interactive Reports do currently not support all the printing features that are available with Classic Reports and Report Queries. This includes groupings, calculations, etc, and you can also not use your custom RTF templates with these reports yet. For APEX 4.0 we are planing to have Interactive Report exports (PDF, Word, Excel, HTML) that reflect what you see on your web page. And also to add support for custom RTF templates.

Marc

Oracle reports and xml publisher

Hello,
I would like to know what we can do with an XML generated with Oracle Forms in BI publisher.
I have never used BI publisher before.
Thank you.

There is a conversion tool available to convert Oracle Reports file to BI Publisher.
More information: [Converting Reports from Oracle Reports to Oracle BI Publisher|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12844_01/doc/bip.1013/e12187/T518230T518393.htm]
I have used it to migrate Oracle Reports file. For simple reports it is usable. For complex ones you have to check manually and do some changes in the result

Distribution of multi section/multi query report

Hello
I have a report that's need to be modified to allow email distribution when the user chooses to.
The report has 2 independant seperate queries. Each query is presented on a different section.
Query1 - MainSection
Query2 - TrailerSection
Based on a paremeter we're turning on/off each query/section from being presented.
Hence the report results either with Query1/MainSection or with Query2/TrailerSection
Now to this report we would like to add email distribution. And this is where we're failing.
Each section has to repeat on different group, each query has different addresses relying on a parameter.
If I seperate the report to 2 reports - I can distribute it via email. But I would rather not to - since many modifications will have to come in place. I don't mind 2 different xml distribution files in case of each section - but this also doesn't seem to work.
This is the error that I get
REP-1353: Web property of layout object 'RS_FRAME1' references field or column 'email_to' at wrong frequency.
And I can understand why - since it's seems to run both queries each time even if I try to suppress the 2nd one by filter or by a parameter.
This is the xml file that I am trying to use for when Query1/MainSection is trying to execute
<destinations>
<foreach>
<mail id="email1" to="&<EMAIL_TO>" from="[email protected]" subject="RPT558">
<body srcType="text">
Please find attached a copy of your calendar.
Please do not reply to this email.
</body>
<attach format="pdf" name="&<ATTACH_NAME>" srcType="report" instance="this">
<include src="mainSection"/>
</attach>
</mail>
</foreach>
</destinations>
Any idea if this is at all possible.
Thanks
Yafa

Hi Ravi,
Thanks for the reply. To answer your question, yes the reportid is considered as a single value coming from the table in the database. Below is the actual query that I am using to obtain report id value. This query result (reportid val) is not showing up on my report.
What am I doing wrong here?? Would greatly appreciate your insight into this.
Thanks
Suma
--- Below is query Q1 which retreives the report id. This value is associated with a field that is located in the top right margin area, above the report body. The table name is RPT_DETAIL_BY_APPNAME, which stores the details of reports for each application on the server. The reportid is a simple concatinated string of application name with a unique id value within the table, for each report.
SELECT RPT_DETAIL_BY_APPNAME.APP_NAME || RPT_DETAIL_BY_APPNAME.PK_RPT_SERVER_ID REPORT_ID
FROM RPT_DETAIL_BY_APPNAME
WHERE LOWER(RPT_DETAIL_BY_APPNAME.RPT_NAME) = 'test_reportid.rdf'
