Olap and Oracle report

how can i build a report that combine data from OLAP source and data from a relational database
is there any way to build report based on OLAP data that could take parameter from user at runtime to filter data seen
please it's urgently required ...anyone 'ld help?

Yes you can create reports that combine OLAP and relational data together. Much depends on what you are trying to achieve.
- If you are looking to drill-through from OLAP to relational data Discoverer provides a drill through capability that allows users to define OLAP queries, perform their analysis using multi-dimensional concepts and then drill through into a relational data source via a URL drill out to a Discoverer relational workbook. Currently Discoverer OLAP does not support run time parameters, however, you can created saved selections that allow users to click on pre-defined query filters and apply then to an existing query. For example you could create a saved selections that show the following :
top 5 products based on revenue
top 5 products based on margin
bottom 5 products based on revenue
bottom 5 products based on margin
top 5 customers based on revenue
top 5 customers based on margin
bottom 5 customers based on revenue
bottom 5 customers based on margin
etc, etc
At the moment it is not possible to provide a prompt to allow the user to change value '5' to day '10'.
- if your reporting tool of choice supports embedded total dimensions then it is possible to create special relational views over the multi-dimensional model and provide relational access to the data objects. Both Business Objects XIR2 an Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition support embedded total views. This will allow you to create reports that accept run time parameters to filter your data set.
As this method relies on access to the multi-dimensional model it is very easy to combine that data with related relational data (assuming the keys are the same). There is more information on the OLAP home page on OTN about creating and managing relational access to OLAP cubes.
Hope this helps

  • Oracle Forms and Oracle Reports as portlets

    Please, where can I get the documentation to publish Oracle Forms and Oracle Reports as portlets. I found some information about it in metalink but the URLs are invalid.

    Hi,
    Here are the steps you need to follow while building Portlets .
    1) After creating a Application,in the last step click on the Checkbox 'EXPOSE AS PROVIDER'.
    If the application has already been created ,click on the same checkbox in the grant access section.
    2) When creating a component within the application ,select the checkbox 'PUBLISH TO PORTAL'.
    Incase ,you have already created the component then just click on the same option in the grant access section.
    Now when you want to add these portlets to be part of a page .Just select the provider(Application) and the portlets under it.
    Hope this helps.

  • Oracle forms and Oracle reports for Oracle 9i

    Hello,
    I'm searching for Oracle forms and Oracle reports that works with Oracle 9i.
    Does someone know where I can find them?
    Thanks in advance...

    When we talk about Oracle9i, we often mean the database version 9i.
    Apparently you want to use Forms and Reports 9i, which included in the obsolete (and very unhappy) Application Server 9i. ... Or the also obsolete Application Server 10g Release 1 (aka App Server 9.0.4.
    You are encouraged to look at Forms and Reports 10g (part of the improved Application Server 10g) which does connect to Oracle Database 9i as well as Oracle Database 10g. Look for App Server 10g Release 2, version 10.1.2.0.2 and 10.1.2.2)

  • Specific courses on OLAP and oracle security

    sir
    can anyone specify on specific courses and book(s) on OLAP and oracle db security?
    thanx in advance

    OLAP: Depends entirely on what you want to accomplish - basics, tools, migrating data to, etc.
    I teach and recommend "Oracle Database 10g: Using OLAP (Data Warehousing and Oracle BI)" as a starter. Other stuff, go to http://education.oracle.com , enter 'OLAP' into the Search box and hit 'Go' button.
    Database Security: Depends entirely on what you want to accomplish, but I find Oracle University course offerings lacking in this area. (I really wish May Ann Davidson would do something about that, and I'd love to help.)
    The OCP Admin I and Admin II course each have a chapter discussing Security. I think these are rather simplistic for the commercial world, but most OCP candidates I see get stymied by even that level.
    The "Oracle Database 10g: Security Release 2" course is a reasonably good starting point, but few offer it. (And yes, I teach that as well)

  • JSP Best Practices and Oracle Report

    Hello,
    I am writing an application that obtains information from the user using a JSP/HTML form and then submitted to a database, the JSP page is setup using JSP Best Practices in which the SQL statments, database connectivity information, and most of the Java source code in a java bean/java class. I want to use Oracle Reports to call this bean, and generate a JSP page displaying the information the user requested from the database. Would you please offer me guidance for setting this up.
    Thank you,
    Michelle

    JSP Best Practices.
    More JSP Best Practices
    But the most important Best Practice has already been given in this thread: use JSP pages for presentation only.

  • Word and oracle reports

    I want to print a report along with a word document embedded in that. When i print the report and the embedded word document i am getting the print of oralce report and only one page of word document, rest part of the word document is not getting printed. My requirement is that i need to print the oracle report along with full word document, which is embedded.
    If i double click the embedded word document on the report, it opens in a new window and i can give seprated print there. But i dont want the user to do that. In a single click both the oralce report and full word document should be printed.
    Thanksm,
    sekhar

    Frank,
    Is there any work around for this to do this task. We had two options in mind
    (1) Running a batch file which will print the document as a background process. But this will work fine if the printer is a local printer, i mean gives problem when the printer is in network.
    (2) Calling a DLL from PL/SQL. This options i bit tedious because we need write some code for this and that tooo this option has some limitations.
    Do u have any ideas for this.
    Thanks,
    sekhar

  • Oracle Froms, Global Variables and Oracle Reports

    Hi all,
    We are developing a form that will call an Oracle report and we would like to test the value of a global variable that was set in the Oracle Forms in the "Before Parameter Form" in the Oracle report trigger. Can this be done?
    Thanks, Larry

    The "global" var. is global to either a report or a form, not both. You may pass them from one to the other but that's not the session-global thing.

  • R12 and Oracle Reports

    R12 customer running Oracle Reports 10.1.2.0.2
    They upgraded E-Business Suite from R12.0.4 to R12 Fin RUP5 and their Oracle Reports started to fail with:
    REP-1416: 'beforereport': User exit 'FND'. APP-FND-00005
    The customer was advised to upgrade to Oracle Reports 10.1.2.2.0 and the problem went away. R12 documentation does not indicate that 10.1.2.2.0 is a pre-req. Can someone assist with the following questions:
    1. Is 10.1.2.0.2 an old version that customers should not use?
    2. What is the latest version of Oracle Reports?
    3. Should we advise our R12 customers to upgrade to 10.1.2.2.0 or later?
    Thank you,
