Need Discoverer 4.1.48.06.00

Hello there,
I work in Oracle E-business Suite IT support. I Need Discoverer 4.1.48.06.00 so bad because the available 4.1.37.00.0 is not compliant with the Oracle application schema. I've looked for it in the Oracle site products but didn't find it.
I think I will need some help?
Pretty please in the beginning. Pretty thanks in the end.
ERP System Admin.

And to follow everyone else's comment -
I'm presently at a site where they're still running v4. I've patched most up to 4.1.48.06 and a few machines for test to 4.1.48.08.
In actually, although there was all sorts of threatening stuff said that 4.1.48.08 has to be the only one that works with Apps 11.5.10 - actually the 4.1.48.06 version do fine as well.
The note actually say that the difference is in the connection that's changed in Apps as of 11.5.10 but so far, really hasn't made a difference.
Having said that though, I would at least download the 2 patches you can get to get it up to 4.1.48.08 so you can do it when you have time, but more importantly, with my recent experience, get it while you can as support has to give you a password for the downloads and you go through lots of fun wrangling first with them about 4.1.48 not being supported anymore so you can't have the patch.
So get started and download it, then patch at your leisure.

How to install only Discoverer ?

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to install OAS 10g (9.0.4) on AIX 5.3 dedicated server.
Repository will be install on another Server containing an already active RBDMS 9.2.0.7.
How can i proceed to install my repository on my existing db and only discorervr components.
No need of internet directory or any other components!
I only need Discoverer plus/viewer on server 1 and db on server2.
Thnx in advance,
Hichem

In 9.0.4 you would start a normal application server install and select the Business Intelligence option. You can install this without Identity, Portal, none of the other components. By installing the Business Intelligence option it also installs the stand alone versions of forms and reports with Discoverer. You can disable their container after installation if you do not want them running. If you have any questions just let me know and I can walk you through it.

Oracle Discoverer on windows server 2008

I'm looking for oracle Discoverer download on windows server 2008(32 bit). I tried looking on ORACLE.COM but I'm not able to find one.
Can someone point me...

Hi
Here is the link: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/htdocs/devlic.html?url=/technology/software/products/ias/htdocs/101202.html
However, you may be disappointed because according to this matrix: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/files/as_certification_r2_101202.html it does not look like Server 2008 is a supported platform. I would ask Oracle Support to be sure or perhaps someone from Oracle reading this will advise.
When you get there you need to read the license agreement and then check and click the I Accept button to indicate that you understand and are willing to abide by the agreement.
Assuming you get the all clear, when you get to the main downloads page if you want the full application server you want the first row, if you want just Discoverer Plus / Viewer you want the row entitled Business Intelligence. You then look across the row for your operating system and then download all of the files that begin with CD. In your case because you are looking for the Microsoft Server version you need the software from the first column headed Microsoft Windows. Incidentally, if you need Discoverer Administrator and / or Desktop then it is also in the Microsoft Windows column and it is called Tools CD.
After you have installed Plus / Viewer (they both install at the same time) you version will be 10.1.2.0.2. This is the base version. You then need to log into MetaLink and download the 10.1.2.3 patch followed by the latest cumulative patch. This page on my blog will help with patch numbers: http://learndiscoverer.blogspot.com/2008/04/most-useful-patch-numbers.html

Installing BI Discoverer Plus for multidimensional OLAP ?

Hi there,
it seems I really need to ask for help after getting lost in the forest that Oracle Software is. I hope my question is not too bothersome to people on this forum. So here's the situation:
I have an Oracle 11g database on a CentoOS server, with OLAP option. I have created a simple star schema from my data and an analytical worksheet (although not without pain, there's another thread about that). Now I wish to access the OLAP data through a tool on my Windows XP workstation and be able to manipulate the data to create reports. My goal is to create a small demo to help convincing our client that OLAP reports is the way to go to play with their data, create custom reports, etc. In fact what I'd like to do is to play with the OLAP model like I used to a few years ago when I was using Business Objects as as client, I think they called it Universe Management or something. The thing is you get your model elements (measures, levels, attributes, etc) as icons in a palette and you can drag&drop them on a worksheet to dynamically create reports, crosstabs, etc. That was very nice and accessible to almost any user.
Now my question: what piece of Oracle software should I install on each machine to be able to do that ? I tried with Oracle Client BI Tools on XP but this seems to only include Discoverer "classic" or whatever, that only manipulates relational data. I think I need Discoverer "plus", but where is it located ? This is what I found on the website: "OracleBI Discoverer can be installed from the Oracle Business Intelligence CD". Well ok, but which CD ? There seems to be several of them, like Oracle BI EE, Oracle BI SE, Oracle BI SE One, Oracle BI Tools, etc. Additionaly do I really need to install a full-blown Application Server on the CentOS system to access Discoverer Plus ? This frightens me a bit, you know, I'm aiming for a small demo with two or three tables, I'd be thankful not to have to spend a whole week installing a web infrastrucutre for that.
Well this all looks somewhat confusing, so I thought I'd be better off asking those who know, hence my post. Again I hope this doesn't sound to bothersome.
Thanks for your help!
Christian

Hi Gareth and all,
in fact I have installed the "Oracle BI Tools" for windows (as_windows_x86_bi_tools_101202.zip) which give me access to
- Oracle Discoverer Administrator
- Oracle Discoverer Desktop
However according to the [Discoverer documentation|http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B13917_03/1intro.htm] these are not the tools I'm looking for; as it says : "if you want to create new worksheets and analyze data from both relational and multi-dimensional data sources across the Web, you will use Discoverer Plus". As it seems, Discoverer Desktop only accesses relational data through an EUL, I really would like to play with my OLAP cube, because I'm intending to create a demo of what will eventually be a much larger OLAP system.
So I'm still desperately looking for Discoverer "Plus". From the page you indicate I had already installed not the full AS but the "Business Intelligence" CD, which is supposed to include Discoverer (as indicated in the 'Included" list). I did a "complete" install, however I'm still unable to locate anything ressembling Discoverer. I have Publisher, Dashboard, Delivers, Marketing, Disconnected Analytics... There's Answers that might be similar to Discoverer, but it looks like a whole different beast and much more demanding (like I'm not even able to figure out how to define a new data source). Well I was hoping to be able to view my tiny cube in a few clicks and "Discoverer Plus OLAP" looked like the right tool for that.
So the next step might be to install the full AS, however it'll take the whole week-end to merely download the 4 CDs. And will it include Discoverer PLus in the end, or am I getting to come back empty-handed again ? Well this is all getting a bit discouraging, please if anyone here knows a convenient way to end up graphically manipulating an OLAP cube and creating simple reports from it please advise ! :-)
Anyway thanks all for your support,
Chris

Discoverer 4i availability

I just downloaded and installed Oracle 9iAS on NT only so I could test Discoverer 4i. I saw on technet that it is now shipped out only in the 9iAS download and I was wondering if it is still shipped as a separate product also. I already have apache on one machine but dont see the need for the entire 9iAS server software when I only would need Discoverer 4i. If it is available as stand-alone... do I need to order the CD since it appears it is not available for download? Thanks!

i downloaded discoverer 41 a couple of days ago. i went to the oracle download pulldown menu, selected discoverer and was presented with a dialog for downloaded the administrative and viewer versions. i am attempting to evaluate the product. however, i have not been able to install it on a server with and installed database. it does install if no oracle database has been installed.

Oracle HRMS Reports - Type Discoverer

Metalink id 231369.1 lists seeded available HRMS reports.
How to see/run reports of Type Discoverer? Does discoverer needs to be installed on server and intergrated with eBS to view these reports?
Thanks,
Tanveer

you will need discoverer installed to use the HRMS reports. as far as my understanding goes, you may not need a separate license for discoverer so long as it is used for eBiz data only. However, you will need the HR intelligence license to use the HR Intelligence reports.
Standard HRMS also delivers a few standard discoverer reports. However, you may find that they need to customized to your specific needs.
As suggested. Please check with your Oracle Account manager to be certain.

Looking for Discoverer Admin 3.1.36 or later

Trying to install Oracle Discoverer 3i. At

Where can I get these latest version ? Thanks a lot

Release 3.1.36 of the Administration Edition will be available for download in a few days. This version will replace 3.1.25.

How to change default value of a parameter and LOV attached to a parameter

Hi All
I am new to discoverer reports and I need to accomplish the following tasks:
1. Need to change the SQL query of a discoverer report
2. Need to change the default value of parameter ( from constant to current month). In the discoverer plus responsibility when I open the report and go to tools>>parameter>>edit
I can see the constant default value given there. On the right hand side there is a drop down which says 'Value'. I guess if i need to put a SQL as defaul value I need to change the drop down to sql or something and then put the SQL. Problem is the drop down is froezen and I cannot change it.
Even if I try to create a new parameter/report.
3. Need to change the LOV associated to the item on which the parameter is based.
I have the discoverer plus responsibility attached to myself and do not have the discoverer administrator tool (desktop developer tool like forms 6i). My questions are:
1. Can I change the SQL query by using discoverer plus responsibility or do I need discoverer administrator tool?
2. Any help on how to get the default value from an SQL query? currently it is a constant value.
3. Is there any way to figure out is the LOV is madeup of fixed constant values (like independednt value set) or they are fetched from some sql query(table validated value sets)?
Any pointers/solutions will be highly appriciated!!!
Thanks in advance.
Thanks and Regards,
Shashank

HI,
Need to change the SQL query of a discoverer reportThe discoverer generate the SQL according to the item, calculation and conditions designed in the worksheet.
You cannot edit a specific worksheet SQL.
In order to change the SQL you need to change the worksheet using the "Edit-> worksheet" from the menu.
To change the SQL generated inside the folders you need to do that using the administrator.
Need to change the default value of parameterYou cannot use SQL statements for the parameter default value. it is not supported. if you need default you can use only constant (as it was). otherwise you can set the parameter to be optional and then add to this condition an OR saying that <item>= NVL(:Parameter,<your default>)
as <your default> you can use calculations so that if for example you want the current date you will create a calculation containing: SYSDATE.
Is there any way to figure out is the LOV is madeup of fixed constant values (like independednt value set) or they are fetched from some sql query(table validated value sets)?They are based on SQL, even they are const then you will see it as
select 'a','b'... from dual
you can find the LOV (called item classes) in the administrator.
Go to the item your condition is based on and see its properties.
In the properties you should see the item class it uses.
Close the properties and go to the item classes tab, search for this item class and figure the folder it came from.
This is the folder you need to change in order to change the LOV.
Hope it helped a bit, you sure asked several big questions...

How can I download the 10.0.0.0.0.0 or newer

Hi,
I am new to discoverer. I need to work on an existing .eex file. Seems the version of discoverer that I have installed in my local machine is not up to date as the file that I am trying to open is of higher version. I got a error message that 'Needs Discoverer Version 10.0.0.0.0.0 or newer' to open the file. Was wondering if someone can help with the URL/direction for this version of the discoverer. I hope this is not a too dumb question to ask in this forum...
Sammy

Russ,
What I understand is that I need the desktop and the admin part of the discoverer. What version shall I look for? 10g or 10i or something else. Could you or anyone else please let me know.
Sammy
You can download from Oracle either / both the
client/server versions of Discoverer (desktop,
administrator) or the web versions (plus, viewer)
from the technet sites (http://technet.oracle.com) -
in the download section.
I'm not sure of the new names, but it has been DS for
the developer (ie: client) versions and AS versions
for the application server versions.
What Discoverer 'flavour' are you trying to use
(administrator, desktop, plus, viewer).

Install BI Samples 10.1.2 on 9.0.4.1 ?

Hi,
My current version of 10gAS (with Discoverer and BI) is 9.0.4.1 (9.0.4 with Patch Set 1). Can I install the Oracle Business Intelligence Samples Release 10.1.2 on top of my 10gAS ?

The BI Samples are available only on Discoverer 10.1.2.
While you can certainly try installing them on Discoverer 9.0.4, note that the samples installation makes use of certain files that are available only with a 10.1.2 installation.
While the relational samples should work with a 9.0.4 version of Discoverer, to run the OLAP samples you would need Discoverer Plus OLAP or Discoverer Viewer 10.1.2.
You can find more information about the samples at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bi/samples/index.html

IAS 10g rel 2 BI and Forms services

I have the IAS 10g rel 2 infrastructure on a RH v3 server and, as we need Discoverer, plan on installing BI on the same server. We also need Forms and Reports services as well.
As I don't see Forms services in BI (although the documentation says it is) the following questions arise:
- If I install BI without Reports services, is it possible to install Forms and Reports services from the stand-a-lone version into the BI $OH? Or, would it require another separate $OH for the Forms and Reports services?
- If I install BI with Reports services, is it possible to install just the Forms services into the BI $OH? Or, again, is a separate $OH required for just the Forms services?
Your responses are much appreciated!!

There are three installation types that are pertinent to this question:
From Oracle Application Server 10g CDs, you can install BI and Forms Services and configure Discoverer, Reports, Forms (and even Portal). This has dependency on Infrastructure.
From Forms and Reports Services CDs, you can install Forms and Reports (in a seperate Oracle Home, never into BI and Forms install O_H). This has no dependency on Infrastructure.
From BI Cds, you can install Discoverer and Reports with no Infra dependency. It has to be in its own Oracle Home only.
So if your need is to run Discoverer, Reports, Forms in one Oracle Home but have no infrastructure dependency, it is not possible.

Discoverer need a long time to open a workbook

Hi,
we have 2 workbooks with over 60 calculations/workbook
and the discoverer need over 2 min to open the parameter window.
looks that the discoverer check all calculations if they are valid or not before display the parameter window.
we had no problems with this 2 workbooks until our DBA's move our DB-Server to a other destination. (time for open 25 sec/workbook)
now, the network to the new destination is not so fast like the old one.
a trace gave us the follow information.
the discoverer send round 50,000 small packages to the DB
to the old Destination: 1ms/package
to the new Destination: 10ms/package
is there a way to disable the check function (Registry?) or know anyone what do the discoverer between "open workbook" and display the parameter window?
This 2 Workbooks are our most used query's in the company.
I would greatly appreciate any suggestion you may have which can help in addressing this issue.
Thanks,
Maurice

Maurice,
Have you discussed this issue with your network administrator? Another place is to check with the DBA if the new DB lacation's storage and memory. To tune the discoverer report itself, you may try to create a materilized view, or have a custom folder for each workbook.

My neighbour's Mac Book Pro shows up as discoverable when Bluetooth is turned on in my iPad Air. How can I block her device? How can I prevent her pairing with my iPad Air. I need Bluetooth on to play music over my system.

My neighbour's Mac Book Pro shows up as discoverable in my Bluetooth list on my iPad Air. How can I block her Bluetooth device? How can I prevent her pairing with my device? I need Bluetooth to stream music on my Bose system. Thanks!

If your device is discoverable, the other BT device would try (I am not sure if that would be successful). If it was, it would appear in your system preferences>Bluetooth.
Take a look at this re: security:
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10786
This is from another Apple article:
Use Bluetooth
You can wirelessly transfer files between computers—even Mac to PC—using the Bluetooth File Exchange utility. You can even browse selected devices and retrieve files remotely. For extra security, you can stipulate that only trusted devices be allowed to connect to your Mac, and 128-bit over-the-air encryption is also available
Barry
P.S. Since I have not had the issue, I have not researched this before. Thank you for making me look into BT security

Error in week number while running a discoverer reports. URGENT HELP NEEDED

Hi All,
we had a requirement of getting the week number for the given date in one of the columns. Here the start date of the year was not always 1-jAN so we had to create a function which returns the week number as an output.
The problem that we are facing is we are using the Discoverer 4.1.41.05 both at my end and user end. While i am trying to run the report i am getting the right output but while with the same login id when user is trying to get the output he is getting correct data till the data in year 2009 and from 2010 onwards the answer for the week number is coming in lacks. I had suggested the user to re-install the discoverer but still the issue is there.
If someone know something about this than please reply to the thread and also mail me on [email protected]
Thanks,
Sarang.A.Mehta

I might be late in replying, but hope it might help.
From your query it seems you are inserting records into interface tables and then calling process order API( probably from some PL/SQL block).
This is where I am confused, because I hope you understand, that interface tables are for use with Order Import concurrent Program, and for Process ORder API, you need to provide the data as parameter. The api has, header record type and line table type as parameters. So you need to assign correct data to these variables and pass them as parameter when you are calling Process Order API.
If you are doing the same thing, then post the exact pl/SQL code and error message from the API. That might help diagnose the issue.

Need Urgent Help on Calculation items issue In Discoverer Plus

Dear Discoverer Experts,
I would need help on the below scenario:
A
147644.08
147644.08
Maximum: 147,644.08
B
142494.65
5149.43
Sum: 147,644.08
C
5149.43
142494.65
0
Here A, B, C are columns and C column is Calculated Item(A-B) and Maximum and Sum are Totals items, everything working fine.
The intent is that I would need the difference between totals items I mean Maximum and Sum , i.e Maximum-Sum (147,644.08 - 147,644.08) =0(in this case), but I am not able to get it, can anyone help me on this that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
skat

Thanks Tamir for your response, i am getting ZERO
But when i create new calculation item for examle TEST with calculation MAX(A) over () - SUM(B) over ()
then i am getting new column next to C with name TEST and with two rows of data with 0 (Zero)
like this
TEST
0.00
0.00
why am getting two rows of data, and that too can't we get this ZERO under C column at the same Row as MAX and SUM
(Or)
if not possible then after adding coumn TEST next to C column can we get ZERO in the row as MAX and SUM
either way would be fine, can any one hlep on this issue.
