No Data Found In APEX report

Hello All
I am new to APEX and have a problem. I have created several reports in APEX that allow users to extract data into Excel. However, one report says that No Data is Found in excel although data appears when report is run. Hope I am making my self clear.

Arie,
in my case I must have hit a bug (still using Application Express 2.2.1.00.04): I observed this "no data found" issue, and worked around it by just disabling CSV export in the report settings and re-enabling it again afterwards.
I don't quit understand why we need to apply procedures likes those described in http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:117 : shouldn't a CSV export simply work when the corresponding report is non-empty?
Regards, Thomas

  • ApEx 4: after upgrade, "when no data found" message on report not shown

    I have a page that displays a tabular form. Initially, the table is empty, and so I have text in the "when no data found" block of the report attributes.
    After upgrading to ApEx 4, this text is no longer shown when no results are returned. It displays the table header, but no rows. So for some reason, it thinks data is being returned -- even though the table is completely empty. I've tried several permutations, but have not been able to find a workaround.
    I'll try to set up a standalone page, but I can provide a pointer to the existing page on apex.oraclecorp.com on request.
    UPDATE: I think this may be related to the bug I reported on tabular forms.
    Is it possible that the empty, hidden row we are adding now counts as a returned row, even though the SELECT statement returned nothing? And thus the report never thinks that there is no data found? This would also explain why it's displaying the table headers, even though no rows are visible.

    Interesting. I didn't see anything about this change in behavior in the Release Notes. Did I miss something? It definitely didn't do this in 3.2.
    Overall, I think that's actually a very non-obvious change. Seeing a set of table headers with nothing below it looks to me like a mistake. Why would you ever show headers for something when you have no rows? In fact, I thought that was a bug the minute I saw it. With due respect, I don't think the new design is less desirable from a usability perspective than the old one.
    It also doesn't work as you described regarding the proportions: in my case, the columns in the header row did not match the sizes of the columns as I defined them. Although I didn't place anything beside the tabular form, if I had, it would still alter the layout when "Add Rows" is clicked. If you know what the size of those columns is supposed to be (because they are text fields of size xyz, for instance), why wouldn't you define the header cells to use that information? You won't get it exact most of the time, but you can get close, if they're all text fields of specific width.
    Plus, there's nothing on the Report Attributes tab that indicates the "When No Data Found" option won't apply if you are using a tabular form. The textareas should be disabled -- and at the very least, the on-line help should be mentioning this. It doesn't mention anything about this only applying to standard reports.
    Finally, I think you should also put this in the Release Notes, because this requires changes to any application where someone with a tabular form required this. In one case, that was where I provided instructions to users entering data for the first time. Now I have to move it. (Not a big deal, but it would have been nice to know that in advance.) On another page, I put a JavaScript block in there to submit and automatically add a row, because I wanted there to always be a blank row if nothing had been entered -- and that was the easiest way. Okay, granted, that's probably not something you intended to support, but there was nothing wrong with it, technically. And, again, it's fixed by moving that block to the header instead and testing for the number of rows in the table -- easy, now that you provide JQuery for us -- but still manual migration work.
    Thanks for the explanation.

  • Hide 'No data found' msg in report region  when you 1st click search page

    Hi,
    (sorry if it's confusing but my APEX is in FRENCH and I tried to translate)
    I created a search page in my application.
    1- I have an HTML region, with a search box and I search button
    2- I've got a report region (PL/SQL source) which sometimes returns no data, giving a 'No Data Found.' message.
    When I click on the search page for the 1st time (on my navigation bar), I would like to HIDE the report region so I don't have the " No Data Found" message.
    Only Once we click on the search button and there is no result, I want to have the message "No Data FOund"
    How can I achieve this?
    thanks
    Roseline

    1. create a hidden element on your page (P1_HIDDEN_ELEMENT)
    2. put your No Data Found message in a span tag
    <span id="no_data_found">No Data Found</span>3. create an on load computation to set your P1_HIDDEN_ELEMENT to 'no_data_found' if it is NULL and to set it to ' ' if it is NOT NULL - type PL/SQL Function Body
    BEGIN
       IF :p1_hidden_element IS NULL
       THEN
          RETURN '<script>html_HideElement(''no_data_found'');</script>';
       ELSIF :p1_hidden_element IS NOT NULL
       THEN
          RETURN ' ';
       END IF;
    END;4. Put this into the page footer:
    &P1_HIDDEN_ELEMENT.The other solution would be to create a display region - pure HTML and to display that first. Once the search is started that region would remain hidden and only the report would show up.

  • Customize No data found error in report

    4.2.1
    thm:24
    Hi Everyone,
      I have a page with a couple of classic reports. When the underlying sql returns no data, it throws the standard "No data Found" message in that report region. Is there a way we can further customize that by adding something like - no data found for he selected range ?
    Anyone has done this?
    Thanks,
    Ryan

    Hi Ryan,
    Under Report Attributes, scroll to the "Messages" section. There you can edit the "When No Data Found Message", which is default set to "no data found"

  • No data found in MSS Reports.

    Hi All,
    I've configured the MSS business package in my EP.I've done all the required configuration to get it work.But in all my MSS reports it is showing "NO DATA FOUND".Even the employee search is showing the same message whereas in ESS the employee search and other views are showing proper data.
    Can anyone suggest what could be the issue?
    Your efforts would be rewarded.
    Regards.

    hi,
    MSS now use Launchpad for reporting which u need to configure from the backend system.
    You need to customise the Launchpad reportfrom the backend uding t-code FPB_LP_MSS_REP_CUST. this t-code will initialise ure Launchpad report. Check that table FPB_LP6_SNI is no
    longer empty, and has the required entry. Then run the transaction to
    convert.
    Manually add the line to table FPB_LP6_SNI. The values are role = 'MSS', instance = 'REP', and sni_used = ' ' (blank). Then run the transaction to convert.
       Also try to run run program #PWPC_CONV_MDT_TO_LPA# with type #RPT0#.
    If you want only MDT report's...i.e only HR report..you can include Reporting iView from SAP provided content folder...this is standard iView which will display Manager Desktop.

  • How to pop up if no data found in Crystal Reports XI

    Hi,
    Can you please suggest me how to alert message if no data found?
    Thanks and regards,
    Manjunath N. Jogin
    Edited by: Manjunath N Jogin on Jan 21, 2010 2:53 PM

    To Create a alert the following things has to done
    Goto Report menu --> Alerts --> Create or Modify Alerts --> Click on New button.
    Give the Name as No Records Found and then click on the Condition button and give the condition as
    count({field}) = 0 // Where {field} is any DB field used in the report
    This will create the alert. At each refresh it will alert you.
    Write a formula in the report  as  ie.,Alert Message and give the condition as
    If IsAlertTriggered ("No Records Found") Then
    " No Records Found "
    You can use this formula field in the report to show No Records Found when there is no records available.
    Hope it might help you!

  • ORA-01403 :no data found in apex

    dear all
    Please, not to view this thread as the contents are same posted in another thread with a different subject.
    i have a form with 6 regions.
    in one of the region i place a button save.
    i have a conditional process to insert the data in the table
    after entering the data into the respective fields when i click the save button
    it is giving this error.

    Error UNABLE TO INSERT
    OK
    what is this error why it is comming?
    how to solve it? if anyone gives solution it would be a bright day for me.

    ORA-01403 occurs when an SQL SELECT statement written inside a PL/SQL proceedure/function etc is expected to return a row (or more) but doesn't.
    So, your code to save might read along the lines of:
    declare
    bar number;
    begin
    select foo into bar from foobar where id=1;
    insert into ... where id=bar;
    end;
    Now, if the SELECT statement didn't return a row (ie, in the example above there are no records with an id of 1) then you will get an ORA-01403 error.
    Look at your proceedure for saving and run any select statements seperately in a SQL editor and check that all return one or more rows.

  • No data found in the report

    Hi All,
    When the user runs the report she is not able to get the variable selection screen for currency type in the report, so she is not able to see the data in the  report. while all other users are able to get all the required variable selection screen and thus they are able to view the data in the report.
    please help me out in this issue.
    Thanks,
    Lalitha

    Lalitha,
    Execute the report with user credentials and check if there is any authorization failure in T-code SU53. If every thing is fine its better to delete that assignment in the role and reassign the query to the user's role as we are not able to track what exactly is the issue. It might be an authorization issue on that object. Just check it....

  • No data found on Report based on a collection

    Hi all,

  • Leading zeros in apex reports

    Hi,
    In an apex application, when user downloads data from an apex report into csv, it loses the leading zeros because excel thinks it is a number.
    Is there a way to keep the leading zeros?
    Thanks

    I'm afraid but I think that the simplest way is to "quote" the string (so that Excel take it as "text").
    Example:
    SELECT
    '="'|| c1 ||'"'
    FROM
    select 'MX190' c1 from dual
    UNION ALL
    select '00190' c1 from dual
    Or, sometimes, I save the ".csv" file and load it with Excel's Wizard that allow to specify the column to be considered text ...
    But for a normal user is a complex solution...
    Thanks
