Open URL in Oracle Reports

Hello Every one,
I am using Oracle Reports 10G and would like to open a URL via Oracle reports. Basically, I am trying to open a weblink that is a pdf. Is this possible in Oracle reports?
any documentation or help would be really appreciated.
Regards

Yes. You should be able to create a link on basically any field or text.
You can create the somthing similiar in a program unit (property inspector >Advanced Layout>format triggers)
BEGIN
IF UPPER(xxx_xxx) = 'XXXXXX'THEN
return('http://www.google.com')
END IF;
END;
OR
You can just set the hyperlink to the appropriate url within the property inspector >Web Settings>Hyperlink

Run XML Publisher Report via URL (like Oracle Reports)

Hi All,
Is it possible to run xml-publisher report via URL?
In Oracle Reports works this fine:
http://test:7777/reports/rwservlet?server=test_bihome1&report=test1.rdf&userid=test/testv@db&desformat=pdf&destype=cache
We need this for public reports without user login.
Thanks
Thomas

Thomas,
I was waiting to get home before Tim replied... He got the better of me this time :-)
You say you want to let your users run reports using XMLP just by clicking on an URL same way you do with reports and without having to login. If I got the question right and assuming that:
1.Your company is not overly concerned on who runs what reports
2.Who sees what data
3.Your XMLP installation is on your intranet and firewalled from the outside
What you can do is:
On the main page of your XMLP Enterprise installation you should see a folder called "Guest". Any report you create under this folder is run as user "guest" which means you don't have to authenticate yourself as you would normally do.
I have tested this on my home server and this is what I've done:
1.Logged in as admin or any other user you've created with admin privileges created a report under the "Guest" folder.
2.Copied the URL, on my server it is "http://samba.private.net:15101/xmlpserver/Guest/People/People.xdo"
4.Logged off as admin and pasted the URL to a new browser window
5.Hit return and Voila, my report runs without the need to login to XMLP.
Hope this helps. Let us know how you got on.
Cheers,
Joao
PS: If you want to see the report for yourself here's the URL from the outside: http://medeiros.homelinux.net:15101/xmlpserver/Guest/People/People.xdo
I'll keep the link alive for a couple of days.

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

Command to open a PDF generated Oracle Report in New browser window

I know this is probably something for the Oracle Forums but I'll ask anyway because I can't find any info out there on this, without some extra work.
I am generating a PDF file from 10g Oracle reports on Linux RHEL 5 and storing the PDF file to the server. I can send that PDF file directly to a printer with the "lpr" command and that part works fine.
What I'm wanting to do now is "View" the PDF from within the server in a new window. We are using RHEL 5 (Linux) platform and I'm trying to see if there is a way to open the file with a "command line" command that will open it in a new browser window or new window period (opening it with Adobe Acrobat).
Does anyone have a command that will do this? Otherwise, how has everyone else been handling this. The idea of just viewing the previously generated PDF Report file will save us overhead on our database servers because they won't have to re-run some of the same reports over and over.
Any help and assistance is appreciated.
Chris

Several options:
- If you only want to show the pdf to the client without printing, use destype=cache and use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT after the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT (for examples search the forms-forum, there are lots)
-If you have to generate the pdf to a file to get it printed, you could
+use WEBUTIL_FILETRANSFER.AS_TO_CLIENT after the printing to transfer the file to the client, then use CLIENT_HOST to view it.
+map the appserver-directory you generate the report to as a virtual directory in the application-server then use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to directly access the generated file via url.

Open oracle report in new window from method

Hi,
I have a requirement to do some stuff in the view object, save changes, launch an oracle report 10g in a new window, and then navigate to a new page on a SINGLE button press.
I can get all this done using a command button to call may backing bean and a goButton to launch my report, but need to combine these into a single button.
My question is, is there any way to launch my new window and report from the backing bean?
Or is there some other way to accomplish these requirements?
this is a JSF/BC app, jdev 10.1.3.3
Thanks,
Jim

What if I have to do validation against the inputs that are used to dynamically generate the report url in the backing bean when clicking the "Button". I couldn't see there is a way for <af:goButton> to implement that. I think there should be some kind of action or listener in the backing where I can do the validation before I decide to open the new window for report.
I searched the forum and there is a post that will use a form to open the report window using target="_blank" in the form's attribute, but that works only if we don't have to validate the inputs.
I also tried to find a solution that will open a new windows in the backing bean by invoking a javascript, that javascript function will have the report url generated in the backing bean as the parameter. But so far, I couldn't find one with my ADF version 10.1.3.2.0. It looks like that in ADF 11, this approach might be feasible.
Any idea, hints?

How to Open an Oracle Report From a JSF Page

Hi there,
I would be really grateful if anyone would find me a solution to the following scenario:
In my company, we have a project where we have to convert Oracle Forms and Reports to Java Web Application. The conversion of forms is being done thourgh JSF/ADF technology but how can i open an Oracle Report from a JSF page after supplying it with parameters ? Or i have to do some type of conversion before ?
Once again i would be thankfull for your replies.

Tapash,
Thanks for reponding.
Here is the URL I am currently using :
https://gccss.glendale.edu:8001/dev60cgi/rwcgi60?server=rep60_crp3+userid=apps/pswd@crp3+report=/u07/oracle/crp3appl/gcccus/11.5.0/reports/US/GCC_ACCRUAL_BAL_0505.rdf+desformat=html+paramform=yes+destype=cache+p_accesscode=""
The p_accesscode is the parameter I need to pass to the Oracle report.
Currently, when I click the button, it invokes the above URL and takes me to the parameter form of the Oracle report and when I enter the Username, it runs the report and displays the desired output. But, what I need to achieve is, to pass the current user who has logged in behind the scene and to get rid of the parameter screen totally. Is this doable ? If yes, please help me !!!
Thanks
Hilal

Opening an Oracle report in another window

I am calling Oracle Reports from HTMLDB, the report is called from a button press with a branch to a URL, a substitution string has been set up and single sign on is being used.
The url is:
&REPORTS_URL.module=&P2_REPORT_ID..rdf&ssoconn=devpmdb&destype=cache&P2_PARAMETER_LIST.&p_where=&P2_WHERE_CLAUSE.
My question is how can I open this in another window?

Thanks,
I have tried this by incorporating the javascript into the branch URL target:
javascript:popupURL(&REPORTS_URL.module=&P2_REPORT_ID..rdf&ssoconn=devpmdb&destype=cache&P2_PARAMETER_LIST.&p_where=&P2_WHERE_CLAUSE.)
The url does not work at all and redirects to the following page with an error indicating that no branch was found.
http://ukwar2dev4:7778/pls/htmldb/wwv_flow.accept
Can I actually supply this as a URL for a branch targer? And am I using the correct syntax? The url works fine without the popupURL call.

Oracle Reports: Opening within the same browser all the time

Hi there,
I am running Oracle Report 10g using Oracle AS 10.3.
The report output is PDF to a browser.
Each time I run the report, it opens within the same browser.
Is there an option to open the report in a new browser all the time.
http://server_name:port_number/reports/rwservlet?server=report_server_name&recursive_load=NO&paramform=NO&destype=CACHE&desformat=pdf&report=report_name.rep&orientation=portrait&paramter1=1
Thanks for any help.
Jim

I guess you run the report from a form using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT? If so, use '_blank' as second parameter, this will open the given url in a new window.
btw.. if you use forms to start a report you may consider to use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT to start the report instead of using the url-syntax.

I need your help, i have a report and there is a field which is the location of a file. the report is generated in pdf and the location of the file is a link and user can click on it. But when the report and files related to the links are copied in another location, the links in the report do not open the file, is there a way to have like a dynamic process, so if the report and the files location change, link can continue to open the file in current location.
I hope you can understand my problem
