Oracle Reports Books

I am in search of finding some Oracle Reports Books that are newer that 6i. I need to find one that supports Reports 9i or 10g. Is it possible to get any book like that and where do I find one like that? I have looked at the usual places like Amazon and Barnes and Noble.com but all I get is a book that is for the 6i software. I need something newer. Anybody got any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
As far as I know, there are not any new books, you could use this one which for forms 6/6i:
Oracle Certified Professional Application Developer Exam Guide (Oracle Press) (Hardcover) by Jason S. Couchman,
ISBN-10: 0072119756
ISBN-13: 978-0072119756
Or
You can start with these:
http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/forms/10g/state?navSetId=_&navId=0
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/techlisting10g.html
Also download and install the demos:

    How do we report suspicious books, etc about oracle certification?
    For example, go to www.amazon.com and enter the following "Oracle marathon"
    and see books, etc "by M"
    Well spotted.
    Certainly on amazon.co.uk there was a whole load of braindump kindle publications in february.  The was a link to a url in one of them and certguard.com indicated braindump site.  Previously typically only reputable publishers published on amazon .... now here may be a risk people are scanning a few copyright pages/PDF's and rying to make a quick buck.
    https://blogs.oracle.com/certification/entry/cheating_part_7_what_can_you_a indicates you may email [email protected] ( they will not normally reply but i am aware they will take notice.
    You can also get to the same email by Global FAQs ... search 'fraud'
    ( I'm a bit remiss in reporting this myself but only noticed browsing amazon at easter ... and i've been distracted and busy ... ... and that said ocp fraud are already probably already aware.

  • 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].

  • Oracle Press book gives incorrect information about when you are certiifed

    SQL Certified Expert Exam Gudie: ISBN: 978-0-07-161421-4
    Page: 12
    ... and I left (the testing center) a happy and Certified SQL Expert.
    THIS IS WRONG.
    When you leave the exam you receive a score report indicating you have passed the exam (I beleive subject to review).
    BUT
    You are not certified until either:
    - (1) you receive a success kit from Oracle or
    - (2) it is shown on the Oracle Certview Database.
    The distinction is really important as until that time you have agreed not to represent yourself as certified.
    This should have read something like .....
    ... and I left (the testing center) happy knowing that in a few weeks time my certification success should be confirmed in the Oracle Certview Database and my Certification success kits should arrive in a few weeks.
    I am forever screaming at people on the Oracle Forums not to represent themselves as certified until they get a success kit or see it on Certview and an Oracle Press book goes against this!!!!!!
    =:-O
    I know this is possibly apparent nit-picking in the case of this certification ... but it isn't. I've never heard of it happening, but the exam score can be revised until its confirmed (not that I've ever seen this happen ... and wold be almost impossible except for cheating). For instance the exam delivery software/configuration could glitch and deliver 1z0-051 questions instead of 1z0-047 invalidating ones result.  I know we all know this is impossible but would you be prepared to stake all your worldly goods that this has never happened and will never happen.

    They should write a big "THIS IS A DRAMATIZATION" around it!

  • ***Balance sheet Report book got Disappeared from HFM Explorer***

    Hi All,
    Actually one of my user is able to open the balance sheet report book from hfm workspace and run the report till last month.
    No one has removed any of his access.He is able to see all the other reports except Balance sheet report this month.As this is a month end for us it is very very important for me to provide the report book.Even i refreshed his securities but no use.
    I am really battling with my head with no result.
    Am really thankful to every one please do reply me the solution.

    Can others see this report? If so, is this the same user that is having problems with smartview?
    https://forums.oracle.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=10912726
    Do you use groups in ADF or within HFM? has any of his groups changed in provisioning?
    Do you connect to more than one AD in Shared services? If so HFM looks for IDs in each Directory in the order they are listed. If someone entered the same user ID in another domain, HFM will use that one instead of Alex's true ID and have wrong provisioning.
    Is the balance sheet report in the list and he cannot open it? Then check to see if he has the preview POV on, perhaps the POV is defaulting to an invalid setting.
    If the balance sheet is missing from the list of reports, then check the permissions for that report.

  • Financial Reporting Books Table of Content

    Hi,
    i've created a financial reporting book and i want to/have to insert a title page (pdf file). The table of content is always created in front of this title page. I tried to modify xml statements in the book file but there isn't a setting which defines the order of Table of Content and the other included book files. Does anyone know if there is a command to do that. Or is there somewhere some kind of style sheet where the table of content is defined?
    At least i would like to insert a Logo into the table of contet.
    Thank you for your help
    Best regards
    Tim

    After looking at this a bit more, this may or may not work so we might need to get dirty on this one .....................
    Some clues can be found here : http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-publisher/bip-bookbinding-176639.pdf
    Looking at Page 7, it should be obvious that we can add additional deatils to the reports, including cover pages.
    Though, after looking at Page 8, I think I may have you slightly in the wrong direction. toc-template appears to simply cover the commands for the table of contents and there is another template to control everything. But is that file visible to edit?
    If you run FRConfig.cmd, you can find more clues.
    Go to the MBeans tab, expand com.hyperion, then expand Financial Reporting, and Attributes.
    The two attributes that immeidately jump out are TextPrintTemplate and BookTOCPrintTemplate
    - TextPrintTemplate is the FR_TextTemplate.doc file in <<EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE>>/products/FinancialReporting/bin/ folder
    - BookTOCPrintTemplate is the toc-template.rtf file previously discussed.
    Once again, though, the other template exposed to us is most likely just driving the content and is not at a high enough definition level for this to work how you want it to.
    I would say to use the example in the PDF and try adding that to the table of contents page before it does all of the loops. Perhaps it will work from there, perhaps not.
    If that doesn't work, Thursday we can attempt to drill into this more.
    :)

  • Oracle reports in pdf format on web

    What are the steps involved in calling the oracle reports from web and work with ASP application in the pdf format.If you have some details on that or if there is any book/online resource I can look at please respond.
    Thanks

    I allways have to cancel the current job stacked from the Enterprise Manager.
    If I restart the web application and try to generate PDF without cancel the current job stacked in the Enterprise Manager in Current Jobs Queue it doesn't work. It's blocking that job too in the current jobs. ("Formatting page n").
    After that I can continue generating other PDF.
    How can I do to succeed in generating other reports without using the Enterprise Manager to kill the sessions?

  • Developing Oracle Reports Manually

    I'm in the process of understanding Oracle Report Builder via "OCP Application Developer Exam Guide". I know the book discusses a lot of information concerning Reports, but at a high level. Which books do you recommend to better understand the specifics of Reporter Builder. Also, I need to deploy these reports to several platforms(i.e. Oracle database, e-mail to customer, web(PDF).
    Any suggestions for reference knowledge, thanks.

    What do you mean by "manually"?
    In any case there is always the documentation:
