New to oracle report builder

Dear all;
Please pardon me. I am new to oracle report builder and I am trying to accomplish the following. First and foremost please find my pl/sql queries below. Kindly note, all the queries have been tested and I just need to be able to input those queries into the report builder. Thank you.
create or replace package test1 is
type r_cursor is ref cursor;
function report(company_name in varchar2) return r_cursor;
end test1;
create or replace package body test1 is
function report(company_name in varchar2) return r_cursor as
my_r_cursor r_cursor;
begin
if(company_name = 'ALL COMPANIES') THEN
open my_r_cursor for
select t.t_id, t.t_description from t1 t;
return my_r_cursor;
elsif(company_name != 'ALL COMPANIES') THEN
open my_r_cursor for
select t.t_id, t.t_description from t1 t
where t.t_id = company_name;
return my_r_cursor;
end if;
end;
end test1;
create table t1
t_id varchar2(200) not null,
t_description varchar2(250),
primary key(t_id)
insert into t1
(t_id, t_description)
values
('CITI', 'PROFIT: 2.2Billion');
insert into t1
(t_id, t_description)
values
('GE', 'PROFIT: 1Billion');
insert into t1
(t_id, t_description)
values
('JPMORGAN','PROFIT: 0');Now, I am trying to create a simple report in oracle report builder. The interface for generating for this report is basically, there is a dropdownlist where by the user picks a company name from the dropdownlist and clicks on the go button, this should then generate a report with the above query shown in the package. How can this be achieved? All help will greatly be appreciated.

Hi,
first of all you need strong typed ref cursor, oracle reports need to detect witch are the columns returned by your cursor.
so first you create your package
create or replace package test1
as
TYPE t_record IS RECORD ( company_number PLS_INTEGER--TABLE_NAME.COLUMN_NAME%TYPE
, company_desc VARCHAR2(150)--TABLE_NAME.COLUMN_NAME%TYPE
TYPE T_REF_CURSOR IS REF CURSOR RETURN t_record;
procedure report(company_name in varchar2 ,cur_out OUT t_ref_cursor) ;
end test1;
show errors
create or replace package body test1
is
procedure report(company_name in varchar2 ,cur_out OUT t_ref_cursor)
is
my_r_cursor T_REF_CURSOR;
begin
if(company_name = '1')
THEN
open my_r_cursor for
select 1 as t_id, 'description' ast_description from dual
else
open my_r_cursor for
select 2 as t_id, 'description2' as t_description from dual
end if;
end;
end test1;
show errors
then, in your report you create a ref cursor query :
function QR_1RefCurDS
return test1.t_ref_cursor
is
C_return test1.t_ref_cursor;
begin
test1.report(1,C_return);
RETURN(C_return) ;
end;
hope this helps you !

New to Oracle Report .....run/display 2 queries depending on parameter

I am developing 2 report where the output is almost same except for 2 rows .Those 2 row should be extracted from Employee table if the parameter specified is E or should be extracted from Salary table if parameter specified is S.
In short the report should look like
parameter E
----------1----------------
MICROSOFT
Bill Gate
United States
Huge organization
Employee
George Bush
Dick Cheney
parameter S
----------2----------------
MICROSOFT
Bill Gate
United States
Huge organization
Salary
100000
200000
Please advice as how to go about doing this.

Well, if it's only about 1-2 non-repeating values that need to be computed and displayed conditionally, then, the best approach would be to have for them two user parameters, such as :p_u1 and :p_u2.
Then, say in the afterpform trigger you may have something like:
if :p_s='S' then
--- those below being selects that return single values
select ... into :p_u1 from ... where ...
select ... into :p_u2 from ... where ...
end if;
Then, for having the values conditionally printed, you may use the format trigger for the fields, or, eventually, for the frames that contain the fields and some aditional text that is to be printed.
If it's to be a query that returns a number of rows that has to be conditionally printed, then, in the query you may put an aditional condition in the where clause. And in the layout you may put the repeating frame for that query and tha column headers text within a frame that has a format trigger for printing conditionally.

Oracle Reports - Distributing Multiple Reports in a Management Report

Hi,
I am new to Oracle Reports and would sincerely appreciate some guidance.
Requirement.
I plan on using Oracle Reports to write multiple reports containing Text, Graphs, Crosstabs, Tables etc. There are 3 developers and each will be developing a number of reports.
At the end of each month, we need to run all the reports and publish it into a Management Report Pack.
This Management Report Pack must contain a table of contents with the names of the different reports and page numbers. Each Report in the Report pack needs to have a header, footer and page number.
The number of reports will change on a monthly basis so the page numbering will not be specific to a report.
Summary,
3 developers writing multiple reports
All reports must be run and then printed out in a specific order.
Table of Contents page with page numbering for each report.
How can we do this with Oracle Reports?
Is it possible, and if so, how?
What is involved and what is required?
Your assistance is highly appreciated.
Thank you.

You should be creating a universe using the table with filter utilizing a column which accepts a parameter value of language and shows the data in that specific language. This concept is already used in SAP standard audit universe which accepts language for any query and shows the data in that language.. The logic for the derived column for the table should look something like below Table.LANGUAGE = @Prompt(Select language)

Oracle reports and multiple pages

I am new the Oracle Reports and I am trying to generate a report that can continue to the another page. For instance, if my list of items exceeds the first page of the report, the remaining items will be printed on the next page. We can get it to continue to the next page, but the formatting of the following pages after the first page needs to be different. Currently, it is placing the remaining items in the same position as the first page. The remaining items should be further up the page.
In short, how do I generate 1 report with 2 different formats. All pages beside the 1st page will be the same.
Any guidance is appreciated.

Please post the details of the application release, database version and OS.
I would like to ask for your help regarding printing from concurrent requests.
I am currently having an issue with printing multiple pages from Oracle reports, both in text format and RTF/PDF formats.
When I generate a multiple page report and print it directly from a concurrent request, print outs generate extra space after each page even though page size is indicated in the reports (all of them are in letter size).What if you print the output file from the OS, can you reproduce the issue then?
Troubleshooting (Printing) [ID 104528.1]
An Extra Empty Page Is Printed at the End of Requests Output [ID 1011499.7]
I have already tried editing the printer drivers both the actual driver config file and through the application but the results are still the same.Can you reproduce the issue with other printers?
This is very important since printing is done on continuous paper and continuous pre-printed forms
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.If the issue is urgent, please log a SR.
Thanks,
Hussein

Oracle Reports gives : "Failed to locate the Browser" Error. Please help.

Hello All,
I am new to Oracle Reports Developer. I followed the "Oracle Reports Tutorials" (Document ID : B14364-01) to build my first report.
I tried to run the report in web layout mode : I got the following things.
1) A new blank firefox window.
2) After a few seconds : A message window in Report Builder with : "Failed to Locate the Browser" Message
My Machine details :
Windows XP sp3.
Oracle Developer Suite 10g.
Firefox version : 3.5.
Registry Entries : HKEY_CURRENT_USER|Software|Oracle|Toolkit|TKBrowser. No BrowserName, BrowserPath keys found. So I added these keys manually under the paths :
HKEY_CURRENT_USER|Software|Oracle|Toolkit|TKBrowser|BrowserName (value = firefox)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER|Software|Oracle|Toolkit|TKBrowser|BrowserPath (value=C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe)
Ran the report again. This time also I encountered the same scenarios which I mentioned previously. Also tried with registry setting
HKEY_CURRENT_USER|Software|Oracle|Toolkit|TKBrowser with value "BrowserName=firefox;BrowserPath=C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe".
I also ran with the all the settings once without restarting the computer after making the changes. And also ran each time by restarting the computer whenever I changed the value. I could not get a break thourgh.
Please help me in resolving this issue. Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Suresh.

Thanks for replying. I tried the same thing with Netscape 9 now. It is still displaying a blank web page and after a few seconds the same message in Reports Developer : " Failed to locate the Browser".
Is there any specific setting that I need to customize in order to run the reports? My Forms are being executed without any issues. Where as I have problem with Reports Developer.
Thanks in advance,
Suresh.

How to open new window and generate oracle report from apex

Hi,
I had created an application that generates PDF files using Oracle Reports, following this Guide.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/howto_integrate_oracle_reports.html
And I followed 'Advanced Technique', so that users can't generate PDF file by changing URL and parameters. This is done for security reasons.
But in this tutorial, when 'Go' button is pressed, the PDF file is displayed on the same window of apex application. If so, user might close the window by mistake. In order to avoid this, another window have to be opened.
So, I put this code in the BRANCH - URL Target. (Note that this is not in Optional URL Redirect in the button property, but the branch which is called by the button.)
javascript:popupURL('&REPORTS_URL.quotation&P2100_REP_JOB_ID.')
But if the button is pressed, I get this error.
ERR-1777: Page 2100 provided no page to branch to. Please report this error to your application administrator.
Restart Application
If I put the code 'javascritpt ....' in the Optional URL Redirect, another window opens successfully, but the Process to generate report job is not executed.
Does anyone know how to open new window from the Branch in this case?

G'day Shohei,
Try putting your javascript into your plsql process using the htp.p(); procedure.
For example, something along these lines should do it:
BEGIN
-- Your other process code goes here...
htp.p('<script type="javascript/text">');
htp.p('popupURL("&REPORTS_URL.quotation&P2100_REP_JOB_ID.")');
htp.p('</script>');
END;
What happens is the javascript is browser based whereas your plsql process is server based and so if you put the javascript into your button item Optional URL Redirect it is executed prior to getting to the page plsql process and therefore it will never execute the process. When you have it in your branch which normally follows the processes, control has been handed to the server and the javascript cannot be executed and so your page throws the error "Page 2100 provided no page to branch to"... By "seeding" the plsql process with the embedded javascript in the htp.p() procedure you can achieve the desired result. You could also have it as a separate process also as long as it is sequenced correctly to follow your other process.
HTH
Cheers,
Mike
