Need opinion on SE38 changing reports developed using report painter

Hi all,
I need opinion on whether the report produced using report painter and se38.
Can i use se38 to modify a report which was produced by report painter?
Thanks
William Yau

Hi,
You can change it thru SE38, but doesn't serve the purpose,
if it's regenerated dynamically your code will be over-written &
there's lot of overhead in change thru SE38.

    Ramesh,
    right now there really is no way to solve what you are looking for.  There partial solutions, but you will not be able to force a page break in a dynamic report.
    Here is what I have faced, and what I have come up with so far:
    I have a series of reports that have the same column heading, but spread over 5 pages in a fixed structure.  I need to be able to re-use the header and the general report design with 6 reports.  Here is my solution:
    1. Create an outline of the report.  I did all the formatting by creating a report section for each page.  You can force page breaks between the pages.  Upgrade to patch 1502 (came out last week) and you will see some new functionality (such as fit to page, page numbers, etc).
    2. Insert all you page breaks and do all the formatting.
    3. Insert an infoprovider.  Once in, you can just drag and drop the key figure cells into your formatted report.
    4. Create additional modification for formatting as needed.
    This fixes my problem (for now), but I had to do a lot of work to come up with this.  Also, the latest patch (1501 and 1502) has created an issue for me - there is a null exception when I try to use a variable or a filter value in the report body - I can't save the report.  I have an OSS message out, but our BASIS guys are going to be taking the lead on troubleshooting this.
    The reason that you are seeing some customers on the new pages is probably because of "how the cookie falls" - they just fit that way.
    I am trying to be positive and overcome the limitations that are in place right now. If my technical issue is solved, I would recommend upgrading to the new patch (1403 is the latest stable one in my opinion)
    good luck

    The ALV object Grid methods allow the same functionality as ALV grid report function modules but are displayed within
    a screen (dialog program). SAP has provided a suit of programs which demonstrate how to For examples see standard SAP
    programs as detailed below:
    BCALV_EDIT_01 This report illustrates the simplest case of using an editable/noneditable ALV Grid Control.
    BCALV_EDIT_02 This report illustrates how to set chosen cells of an ALV Grid Control editable.
    BCALV_EDIT_03 In this example the user may change values of fields SEATSOCC (occupied seats) and/or PLANETYPE.

  • How to find report values using report writer

    hi,
    Please help me.
    How to find report values using report writer
    Regards,
    RRK.
    Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Feb 6, 2008 12:01 PM

    Thanks all for the reply.
    I am trying to solve a problem where report parameter value that is set at Management Console is wiped out after calling replaceConnection.
    databaseController.replaceConnection(oldConnectionInfo, newConnectionInfo,
    null,DBOptions._doNotVerifyDB);
    We have to support changing database connection from a java utility
    class. But once replaceConnection is called all existing static parameter values are lost. To fix this issue we thought of getting parameters and values before calling replaceConnection and setting it after replaceConnection.
    Version is CS2008 SP3 - version 12.3.0.601
    If there is any other option of fixing the original wipe out issue?
    ParameterValues.getValues() didn't return value. I will try ParameterValues.getCurrentCalues() but the document says ParameterValues.getValues() is  equivalent to the IParameterField.getCurrentValues() method  unless it is empty, in which case it is equivalent  to the IParameterField.getDefaultValues() method.
    So getCurrentValues() may not work.

  • How to display the output of report(9i) using Report Background Engine

    Hi,
    We are converting the forms and reports from 6i to 9i.
    we could run the report in the browser from form using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT built-in, but we are not able to display the report output from form using the Report Background Engine.Let us know if you have any solution for this.
    Regards,

    Pramila,
    you have to use Reports Server called from RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(). Please see the Reports Integration whitepaper on otn.oracle.com/products/forms. You can either look it up in the Forms 10g collateral seciton or the Forms 9i collateral section.

  • Migration of forms and reports developed using Headstart  VERSION 3.4.1

    Hi,
    We have developed an application in forms 4.5 reports 2.0 based on repository 1.3.2 and Headstart
    Designer/2000 Template Package VERSION 3.4.1
    Now we want to migrate to Oracle 9i(web enabled)
    1)Is it possible to migrate only the forms and reports in 4,5 to 9i without the designer repository?Can the repository be left out?
    2)What about the templates and packages on the 2000 Headstart version.Is it necessary to migrate the same to 9i also?
    2)In case the repository has also to be migrated how do i go about migration to 9i??
    4)In case the headstart template/packages to be migrated how do i migrate to 9i?
    5)Where is the documentation available for headstart?
    Kindly help..

    Hi 23768 ( ;-) ),
    There is a whole wealth on information regarding upgrade/migration of headstart generated application systems.
    What you need is a licence on iDevelopment Accellerators and the Supplement Option (cso.oracle.com) to download this material.
    Contact your Oracle Consulting representative if you would like to know how to do this.

  • General oracle report development scenarios

    Hi
    I need to develop oracle reports as part of my assignment .
    I am looking for some report development examples or scenarios to generate reports using oracle 10g reports developer tool.
    Any site or link or any info would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Dave

    It is the tasks i am looking for that a report developer usually performsI'm not sure what you looking for. A report developer creates reports. Oracle Reports is just a tool for that task. It would be the same task as for a developer in Jasper Reports, BI Publisher, Cognos, Business Objects or any other reporting tool.
    Basically:
    Based on the requirements you design a layout and see what data you need. This is just the analysis phase, no programming here yet.
    For this data you create a data model (the queries). I prefer to create the queries as much as possible as database views, to keep the report itself as simple as possible.
    From this data model you create the layout model.

  • How to use Report Builder with permission extension

    Is there any method to let web site which use SSRS and Report Builder use different permission extension module?
    In our web site project we use ReportingService2010 Methods to show and operate folder and report which stored in Report Service, in our project configuration file, we use windows authentication mode for Report Service.
    In requirement 1.User can do any operation in folder “A” and folder “B” (we can create and delete report or folder) in web site. 2.User can’t use “Report Builder” to save reports which created by Report Builder to folder “B”, Reports which created by Report
    Builder only can be saved in folder “A”. [User click “Report Builder” button in our web page to start Report Builder, use  “Report Builder” to create report, if user want to save report, we need to hidden folder “B” in “Report Builder” or we need to remove
    some operate right from folder “B”.]
    We have two solution:
    1. We want to write extension module to process this issue, we want to re-write CheckAccess method which will be called by web site backend  and Report Builder, but how can we know who called CheckAccess method[Web site backend called CheckAccess method
    or Report Builder?]
    2. We want to let Web site back-end use permission extension module named WebSitePer.dll, and Report Builder use PBPer.dll, how to modify the configuration file?

    Hi Fang,
    As far as I know, SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS), have no permission extension. In Reporting Services, it is use role-based security to grant user access to a report server. There are two types of roles: Item-level roles and System-level roles.
    Based on my test, if we assign user with System User System-level role, the user will have permission to user Report Builder to create report. However, if we only assigned Browser or Report Builder Item-level role to the user, he/she will have no permission
    to publish the report to the report server. In this situation, although user have permission user Report Builder to edit the report, it will have no effect of the report in report server. User who has assigned Browser or Report Builder Item-level role will
    have no permission to delete report in the report server.
    There is an article about Setting Permissions in Reporting Services, you can refer to it.

  • Report Service And Report Builder Issue

    SQL SERVE 2012
    In our web site project we use ReportingService2010 Methods to show and operate folder and report which stored in Report Service, in our project configuration file, we use windows authentication mode for Report Service.
    In requirement
    User can show and operate folder “A” and folder “B” (we can create and delete report or folder) in web site.
    User can’t use “Report Builder” to save reports which created by Report Builder to folder “B”, Reports which created by Report Builder only can be saved in folder “A”.

    We have no solution for this requirement, could you help us?

    Thank you for your replay, but I don't understand it very clearly.
    Please check the first requirement:
    User can show and operate folder “A” and folder “B” (we can create and delete report or folder) in web site.
    For example, I login my PC with account "lfang", in report server, we grand "Browse" permission on both folder and grand only "Publish" permissions for folder "A", report builder can't save report into folder "B",
    it's correct.
    But our web site has create report function, that means in our web site we want to create report for both folder "A" and "B", that is the issue, if we don't give "Publish" permissions to folder
    "B", we can't create report in our web site.
    Is there any method to run "report builder" use specified account? then we can only give folder "A" "Publish" permissions with specified account.
