Oracle report features

Hello,
I hope I am posting on the right forum section.
I am now getting into Oracle Reports. I have read several documents about it in order to get familiar with its features. I have a list of requirements that I am trying to find. I found information for most of them but I would be happy if someone can help me with these ones:
1) In what languages is the GUI of O.R. Developer supported?
2) Which Operating systems does the O.R. Developer support?
3) Does the O.R. Developer support drill-down and drill-through reports? If yes, how could this be achieved?
4) In what languages is the GUI of OracleAS Reports Server supported?
5) Does the OracleAS Reports Server support scheduled generation of reports according to a custom business calendar?
6) Does the OracleAS Reports Server track changes of all reports that are newly deployed or modified?
7) Does the OracleAS Reports Server have statistical reports about the execution of the reports (including timing, statuses, etc.)? Does it have any KPI indicators about the global overview of the generated reports (number of successfully (or not) dispatched, average timing, etc.)
Thank you in advance for your answers.
Best regards,
Beroetz

Hello,
If I have not posted in the right section, please, advice me where to put my question.
Thank you.

  • How to create a page that lists available Oracle Reports to execute?

    APEX Version: 3.2.0.00.27
    Database: Oracle 10g XE
    Hello! I'm fairly new to APEX and adapting to the features and terminology related to this product.
    I don't think this issue is unique to Oracle Reports, but rather the concept of a page that reads from table (maybe a "report?") to provide a result set of data which the user can click on a result to direct to another page.
    In any case, I have a table in the database which stores all the attributes (report title, parameter names, RDF name, etc) of about 100 Oracle Reports. So far, I've successfully created an application page that features Items that are used to execute a single Oracle Report. Now, instead of creating unique individual pages for each of the 100 Oracle Reports, featuring the report's attributes (parameters, etc), what do I need to do just have one APEX page that dynamically reads from the table and builds the Region and its Items based on what's in the table? Furthermore, I would like to have an initial page that lists every report available to the user, which they can then click on the name, and then it will take them to the page that presents all the parameters needed to execute the report. How to do this? I understand there is a concept of List (under Shared Components), but it would be impractical to create a List and an entry for each report, and then branch to the parameter page...not to mention, whenever a report is added or deleted, the List would need to be updated.
    Can someone give me some pointers on how to approach this? It doesn't seem all too complex, but I just don't know at this point what the most practical way of accomplishing this...not sure what kind of pages, region, items, etc to create.
    Also, any reference books that you guys recommend on the ins/outs of APEX? I realize Oracle has documentation, tutorials, and OBE's on this product, but from what I've seen they aren't thorough enough in explaining what each property/attribute of the various objects that can be created in APEX.

    but rather the concept of a page that reads from table (maybe a "report?") to provide a result set of data which the user can click on a result to direct to another page.You are on the right track with the idea of an initial page with a report region listing your reports as links. Not sure from the provided information if this out of the box capability will meet your actual requirement, but try the Create Page wizard > New page > Form > Form on a Table with Report as a first approximation.
    instead of creating unique individual pages for each of the 100 Oracle Reports, featuring the report's attributes (parameters, etc), what do I need to do just have one APEX page that dynamically reads from the table and builds the Region and its Items based on what's in the table?If this can't be handled using the built-in Form on a Table with Report design pattern, it sounds like it will be possible using a dynamic form generated using the [APEX_ITEM API|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/appdev.111/b32258/api.htm#BGBHDGAI] either as another report region or a PL/SQL Dynamic Content region.
    Also, any reference books that you guys recommend on the ins/outs of APEX? [Pro Oracle Application Express|http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/reader/159059827X/ref=sib_dp_pt#reader-link], the authors of which are active voices on this forum, is a good book. The forum itself is an unbelievable resource, as is the hosted service for learning and experiment at [apex.oracle.com|http://apex.oracle.com/i/index.html].

    # Typically, a TTC font contains several fonts in one file. For example,

    # MS Gothic, MS PGothic and MS UI Gothic. To subset MS PGothic, the
    # entry in the PDF:Subset section of uifont.ali would be:
    # "MS PGothic" = "msgothic.ttc,1"
    # NOTES ON PRECEDENCE OF PDF SECTIONS:
    # If you have entries for a same font in many PDF sections, then Font
    # Aliasing entry will take precedence over Font Subsetting entry. Entries
    # in Font Subsetting will take precedence over the entries in Font Embedding
    # section.
    # Generic entries for a font must follow more specific entries for the same
    # font. For instance, if you want to subset helvetica Plain, helvetica Bold,
    # helvetica Italic and helvetica Bold-Italic fonts, your entries must be:
    # [ PDF:Subset ]
    # helvetica..Italic.Bold.. = "Arialbi.ttf"
    # helvetica...Bold.. = "Arialb.ttf"
    # helvetica..Italic... = "Ariali.ttf"
    # helvetica..... = "Arial.ttf"
    # If helvetica..... entry appears in the top of the list, all the styles of
    # helvetica font in the layout will be subset as helvetica Plain font.

  • How to get an effective EXCEL Spreadsheet as output for Oracle report 10g

    Hi All,
    I am a newbie in Oracle reporting. I am using 10g. I have an oracle report whose output format is PDF from the user interface. User asked for Spreadsheet output. I changed the JAVA CODE "desformat" = Spreadsheet and got the report in Excel. But this report is not as expected as it has many blank cells, misplacements etc and looks really ugly. so Is there anyway to get an excellent spreadsheet as output.
    If anybody needs any more information on this, please let me know.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you so much Marwim. Your suggestion is very helpful. But I have some other Oracle reports which have only one .rdf file giving output in both pdf and Excel. This doubt might be silly. Almost same features were existing for the rdf what I am working now. For the remaining reports, it was given that DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET , what this report lacks. I googled and found these links http://docs.oracle.com/html/B13895_01/orbr_paptoexcel.htm &
    http://docs.oracle.com/html/B13895_01/orbr_paptoexcel.htm#CIHFDJAJ . But they are not intended for excel output. they generate only web layout in spreadsheet form. Could you please suggest any other ways to achieve this.
    Thank you in advacne.

  • Calling an Oracle Report from a database trigger

    At the moment I have an Oracle form with a timer checking a table for new orders. when
    the form finds new orders an oracle report is run from the form (sending it to the printer directly) with the run_product procedure with parameters being passed also.
    Is there a way to run the report directly from a database/table trigger (also passing parameters)? or failing that how about a batch file or something.
    Info:
    I am using forms/reports 6.
    I believe the database is 7.x
    Cheers,

    hello,
    assuming you are using the oracle reports server, you can use UTIL_HTTP to submit a job to the server using http.
    with oracle9i reports we will introduce a feature called event-based reporting API. a plsql package that allows you not only to submit jobs but also check their status.
    oracle9i reports will be part of iAS Release 2.

  • Std Oracle Report output to Excel Sheet

    I'm supposed to make changes to Standard Oracle Report such that the changes of Oracle Standard Report should be Excel output. One of the ways of doing this is to develop the whole report again in Discoverer as it has the feature of outputing into Excel Sheet. I would appreciate if someone can suggest me other ways of achieving it.
    Thanks
    Bobby

    Hi,
    even i am trying to do the same with my reports. Though it is possible to convert the reports to excel using the DESFORMAT attribute on the reports service, I am not able to preserver all the format in the excel sheet.
    I do not want to use rep2excel but want to implement the same idea on my reports service. Is it possible
    thanks

  • Financial statement generator & Oracle Reports Manager

    We are moving into Oracle Apps R12.1.3 on Solaris. Most end user machines are Windows 7 & going to be Windows 8. Some are Windows XP. Majority have Microsoft 2007 and some have Microsoft 2010.
    Financial Statement Generator (FSG) reports are called from GL Super user as well as Oracle Reports Manager. Attempt being made to open FSG reports directly in Oracle Reports Manager > Excel with drill down.
    Experiencing errors (of VB) , after some patching seeing Blank Excelsheet.  Though same FSG report can be open with Values in Oracle Reports Manager > html and pdf.
    Any body experienced this in recent past.
    Rgds

    Hi Hein,
    Thanks for the reply and I do have access but apart from standard/customized reports, sometimes users create their own reports using FSGs where they pull GL data (No sub-ledgers) by defining rows and columns and many more features.
    For eg: pulling up trial balance report by cost centers
    Is there any equivalent of these Financial Statement Generators in SAP.
    I was thinking about defining the "Variants" in each report and run variants but then thats not limited to GL, I guess
    Thanks in advance....

  • How to Change Fonts in Oracle Reports

    Hi All,
    When ever i am changing fonts in my report it reflects me when i run them on reports builder installed on my local machine.
    But when i put them on application server, these changes are not reflected. I am generating PDF reports.
    Can some body help me what should i need to do to reflect the font changes.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Kamal

    Hi Kamal,
    Whether the font used in the report is installed in the machine where Apps server is installed? If not , use the feature ' PDF Aliasing' to substitue for that particular font.
    For more information on this, have a look at the chapter "Managing Fonts in Oracle Reports" in Publishing Reports Manual. You can download it from http://download.oracle.com/docs/pdf/B14048_01.pdf.
    Thanks,

  • PDF Compression in Oracle Reports

    We are testing Oracle Reports 6.0.8.13.1 that came as part of
    Oracle 9iAS (v 1.0.2.2.1) on Windows 2000. When we generate a
    PDF report , we do not see any compression of the pdf file
    taking place and the generated pdf report is using pdf version
    1.1. The database that is in use is Oracle 8i which is on a
    different box.
    Isnt the pdf version that is used in Oracle 9iAS Reports service
    supposed to be pdf version 1.4.
    Is there anything wrong with this reports server installation or
    are there any other settings/pre-requisites to get pdf
    compression in Reports to work. Also please see my earlier
    posting today
    Thanks in advance.
    R. Adarsh

    There is no PDF compression with Reports 6.0.8 and iAS 1.0.2
    This is a new feature of the upcoming product release iAS V2
    Reports 9i which will use PDF 1.4

  • Parameter Form in Oracle Report!!

    Dear Oracle Users' Group:
    I have problem with "Parameter Form" in Oracle Report.
    The Report that I created has the SQL:
    "SELECT A.FIELD1, A.FIELD2
    FROM MYDATABASE.MYTABLE A
    WHERE
    A.FIELD1 = :P_1";
    When the report is run, it asks for the parameter
    and generates the report based on the runtime
    parameter. Works perfect on Oracle8i database's
    Report front end.
    The PROPERTY PALETTE for the FIELD (Field that
    takes the runtime parameter) is:
    ====================
    General Information
    Name: PF_P_1
    Comments:
    Parameter Form Field
    Source: P_1
    Parameter
    Datatype: Character
    Width: 40
    Initial Value:
    Validation Trigger:
    List of Values:
    (For the list of values, I have put the SQL:
    "SELECT DISTINCT A.FIELD1 from
    MYDATABASE.MYTABLE A", Also I had
    tried with list of fixed values like A, B, C)
    Web Setting
    Additional Attributes (HTML):
    ================
    But the report does NOT work when called from the Web.
    (This is only because of the problem with this Parameter
    Form in my report. If I get rid of the parameter form by
    changing the last line of my SQL to: "A.FIELD1 = 'Chicago'",
    it works fine from the Web).
    When accessed the report from the Web, the error I get
    is:
    Oracle Reports Server CGI - Report Job has terminated with this error.
    Reports Server Replies:
    REP-0788: Warning: The value of restricted LOV parameter P_1 is not among the selectable values.
    I do not know what is the error with this simplest Parameter Form based Report!!
    In the Property Palette (above) of the Field, there was a field named "Additional Attributes (HTML)"
    under "Web Setting" heading.
    Do I need to write something there!!
    Please help!!
    thanks.

  • How to email oracle reports in pdf as attachments

    Hi,
    I am dynamically generating pdf files from oracle reports accessed from a web application. I need to email this pdf file as an attachment. I set destype=mail, desformat=pdf or html and desname=to the email address. The email get sent with the file text included in the email, NOT AS AN ATTACHMENT. How can I include the file as an attachment?
    Oracle Home is on a UNIX box.
    Regards,
    Monica

    Hi Monica,
    You could use a feature called distribution. You specify you email-related parameters in an XML file (say distribution.xml), and run the report by adding the following to your command line:
    ...+distribute=yes+destination=distribution.xml
    Inside the XML file you can specify the attachment, eg (this is just a sample, not the complete file):
    <mail id="ex2"
    to="<email_ID>"
    from="<email_ID>"
    subject="This mail contains the files for Department 10">
    <body srcType="text">
    This is the body of the message.
    </body>
    <attach format="pdf" name="Dept_10.pdf" srcType="report">
    <include src="report"/>
    </attach>
    </mail>
    See complete documentation of the distribution file in Publishing Reports (version 10g) chapter 15. You can also see a sample of distribution in Building Reports manual (version 10g) chapter 36.

I asked this because the clients of one of our projects requires us to print reports on both their oracle and db2 databases. We were thinking if we should use Oracle Reports as our standard reporting tool for this. What do you guys think?
    Also any good articles, docs and info abt this topic is very much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance for your time in reading this post.

    Personally, if it is feasible to do so, I would prefer to export and import specific application schemas or tablespaces rather than doing a full export and import. That's more of a personal preference thing.
    I wouldn't be overly concerned about moving to a different operating system-- moving to a different Oracle version is likely a far more drastic change. That said, there are a number of things in Oracle that are operating system and/or version specific that have the potential to cause you problems, so you need to do a thorough test. Well over 99% of the features are going to behave exactly the same, but every application of sufficient complexity seems to manage to find one odd-ball scenario where something changes between releases.

    Hi,
    I am using Oracle report 6i. I want to change the report layout to Landscape. I had tried to go to 'page setup' and changed to 'landscape', but when I print, I still got portait layout.

    Hi,
    Easiest method for changing your reports orientation to Landscape is
    Go to object navigator->System parameters->Orientation.
    Set value of this system parameter as Landscape. Thats all. You also can set this property using srw. features at runtime.

  • Oracle Reports integration with Sybase

    Hi,
    1) Does Oracle Reports support access to Sybase Database?
    2) Is it posible to generate Adhoc reports through Oracle Reports Writer?
    3) Is ii possible to execute stored procedures in database from Oracle Rreports?
    Thanks in advance!

    1)Yes, JDBCPDS feature in Reports 9i support access to Sybase Database. It allows to access different
    data sources through JDBC-Drivers. JDBC Driver type "sybase-merant" can be used to access to Sybase Database.
    Both SQL Query or Stored Procedure can be used to data source to create JDBC Query.
    Please refer to the Online help of the reports Builder for JDBC query. You can also get more details from
    "Builing reports" manual at http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/reports/content.html
    3) Assuming you are refering to executing stored procedures in sybase database, JDBC query (JDBCPDS) can
    be created against Stored Procedure on sybase database which return set of rows.
    Thanks
