Oracle reports (Matrix)

Can I create a Break Report which includes
Matrix? If yes How do I GROUP BY QUERY
UNDER MATRIX

I'm trying to produce the following:
Group: XXXXXX
country state city year1 year2 year3
sssss ss sssss 999 999 999
yy yyyyy 999 999 999
mmmmm mm mmmmm 999 999 999
sssss 999 999 999
I get the following with a matrix group:
Group: XXXXXX
Country: sssss
State: ss
City Year1 Year2 Year3
sssss 999 999 999
Since matrix with group left is not an option is there a way to simulate this?

Line Chart/Graph for a Matrix report in Oracle Reports 10g

Hello,
If you have a Matrix report, say Month Name as rows, Year as columns (for example 2007, 2008, 2009) and sum of Sales dollar value as cells...I want a Line Graph which shows Months on the bottom axis and Years represented by lines and the sales value as the trend or data points on the horizontal line...it seems Oracle Reports cannot do this sincethe Chart wizard does not show either the Months or years as selectable fields for either X or Y axis.
I can easily write a sql which does the pivot and produce the results for Sales by month for last 3 yrs but in this case I would have to provide column alias similar to say CURRENT_YEAR, PRIOR_YEAR, PRIOR_PRIOR_YEAR. Then, the Chart wizard works correctly but the Legend shows the column alias which is not very desirable for an executive level report.
I was hoping that since a matrix report shows the correct column names, the legends will pull through correctly but I am stuck since the Chart for a matrix report doesn't work as I described above.
Does anyone know how to do this type of Chart on a Matrix?
Thanks,
Manish

The way I'd do it is with a 3D-graph, I think you need that otherwise you will not be able to represent it properly ...
You will need to create another query just for the graph, which will create another group, containing only 3 columns (YEAR, MONTH, SALES), then start your Graph Wizard, then you will see two groups, select the one containing the 3 columns and when asked for the X-axis categories select both YEAR and MONTH, then for Y-axis select SALES.
That way it should work...

Help desiging a 10g Oracle Report with Matrix and Lexical Parameters - Long

Hello all:
I apologize in advance for this long post.... I'm using Oracle Reports 10g (9.0.4.0.33). First -- the question:
I need to create a Matrix where the rows come from one database table
(TABLE1) and the columns and cell contents come from a linked query (pulled from TABLE2) that is generated with lexical parameters based on the current TABLE1 row. The lexical parameters contain a WHERE clause for the TABLE2 query. Basically, I have a linked query between TABLE1 and TABLE2. I need to generate a Matrix around it.
Does anyone know if this is even possible?
Here's the background on the application, if that is helpful...
I have an application where I maintain database tables containing names/addresses along with information pertaining to them. As part of the processing, I need to produce reports that contain statistics based on values in the table. For example, each row has a field RTYPE that identifies the Record Type (1-Suppress, 2-Buyer, 3-Inquirer). Each row also has a last purchase date field. The statistics produced for this field would look like this:
          2001     2002     2003     11/03     12/03 01/04     02/04 03/04     04/04     05/04 ...
Buyer      100 150 250 30 25 15 8 9 22 83
Inquirer     1000 800 493 ...
Suppress ... ...
Totals ... ...
Each cell contains the count of the number of records that have the corresponding RTYPE and Last Purchase date. The dates across the top are determined by the most recent purchase date in the file. We count the last 12 months, month by month, and then anything older than that is grouped by
year of purchase. So, the column headings are variable.
The SQL query for this example looks like this:
SELECT CASE WHEN rtype = '2' THEN 'Buyers'
WHEN rtype = '3' THEN 'Inquirers'
WHEN rtype = '1' THEN 'Suppress'
END HLDESC,
CASE WHEN MONTHS_BETWEEN(trunc(:MAXHLDATE,'MONTH'),
TRUNC(T.HOTLINE,'MONTH')) < 12
THEN TO_CHAR(T.HOTLINE,'YYYYMM')
ELSE TO_CHAR(T.HOTLINE,'YYYY') || '00'
END YYMM_8,
CASE WHEN MONTHS_BETWEEN(trunc(:MAXHLDATE,'MONTH'),
TRUNC(T.HOTLINE,'MONTH')) < 12
THEN TO_CHAR(T.HOTLINE,'MM/YY')
ELSE TO_CHAR(T.HOTLINE, 'YYYY')
END FmtDate_8,
COUNT(*) HLCOUNT
FROM &TABLENAME T
GROUP BY CASE WHEN rtype = '2' THEN 'Buyers'
WHEN rtype = '3' THEN 'Inquirers'
WHEN rtype = '1' THEN 'Suppress'
END,
CASE WHEN MONTHS_BETWEEN(trunc(:MAXHLDATE,'MONTH'),
TRUNC(T.HOTLINE,'MONTH')) < 12
THEN TO_CHAR(T.HOTLINE,'YYYYMM')
ELSE TO_CHAR(T.HOTLINE,'YYYY') || '00'
END,
CASE WHEN MONTHS_BETWEEN(trunc(:MAXHLDATE,'MONTH'),
TRUNC(T.HOTLINE,'MONTH')) < 12
THEN TO_CHAR(T.HOTLINE,'MM/YY')
ELSE TO_CHAR(T.HOTLINE, 'YYYY')
END
ORDER BY CASE WHEN MONTHS_BETWEEN(trunc(:MAXHLDATE,'MONTH'),
TRUNC(T.HOTLINE,'MONTH')) < 12
THEN TO_CHAR(T.HOTLINE,'YYYYMM')
ELSE TO_CHAR(T.HOTLINE,'YYYY') || '00'
END
There might be a better way to write this, but that isn't the issue at the moment.
I have many different tables, each with different fields. I need to produce counts on each of those fields. Some of those fields have a limited number of values where I need to count the occurrences and attach a description (like the RTYPE counts above). Others, like Last Purchase Amount, require counts within ranges (between 0 and 9.99, 10 and 19.99, etc.). Still others are "multiple choice"-style fields (such as products purchased), where we have multiple single-char flags that are not null when the corresponding products are purchased. In this case, we need to produce statistics that look like this:
          2001     2002     2003     11/03     12/03 01/04     02/04 03/04     04/04     05/04 ...
Product 1 .........
Product 2 .........
The worst of the bunch is a field where I need to count the occurrence of each value within it (hundreds of values) without entering descriptions, so I don't know how many rows will appear ahead of time. This is used for "source codes" that identify where the name/address came from. They look similar to the RTYPE above, but the leftmost column contains each value from the field rather than a description. There are so many possible values and they change so often that it isn't feasible to enter a description for each one.
Right now, I manually create an Oracle Report for each table when I design/load it. This is becoming difficult to manage, since I have over 150 of them now. Each of these reports can have any number of matrices to display (the largest right now has about 25).
The new table structure to generate these reports consists of two tables: A COUNTHDR table and a COUNTROW table. The COUNTHDR table represents a single Matrix within the report. It contains info such as a heading for the Matrix and whether column totals should be calculated or not. The COUNTROW table contains a description for each row and an SQL Fragment that contains an appropriate WHERE clause to match the description. In the event of a "source code" style count, COUNTHDR has the name of the field to count. COUNTROWs won't exist, so I'll be handling those counts differently. But, ignoring that issue for now, the report structure looks like this:
+ Q1 +
|
+ COUNTHDR +
|
+ COUNTROW +
| linked query
+ Q2 +
|
+ COUNTDTL +
Q2 is the query with lexical parameters for the table and "where clause" that identifies the actual statistic I need counted. I need fields from COUNTROW and COUNTDTL to form a Matrix.
Can this be done? How?
Of course, if anyone out there has a better idea on how to achieve my goal of not writing a report per table, please let me know!! :-)
TIA
Eric Raskin
PS. This structure does not exactly duplicate my original query, since multiple Matrix rows are created by the single SQL query given in the example. Instead, I'll end up executing an SQL query for each row, which is less than desirable. The design will need some tweaking...
PPS. I have tried handling this problem by pre-counting the target table and storing the results in a COUNTCOL table, containing the details of the matrix. This actually does work, but the performance is terrible. I have one "source code"-style count that generated over 20,000 detail cells, including all the "0" cells needed to fill out the matrix. If you don't generate the "0" cells, you get holes in the matrix presentation and/or error messages (which I can explain if you wish). I never did get Oracle Reports to print this one -- I gave up after an hour of runtime on a P4 3GHz machine connected via Gigabit Ethernet to the server. Hence the attempt to push the SQL Queries back into the Oracle Report itself.

Oracle Report Font problem when run report from oracle EBS R12

Dear All
I have developed one Report in ORACLE REPORT BUILDER in windows environment. I see the output of that report, its ok, I deployed it on the EBS R12 which is on Linux environment, when i see the output, its fonts totally change and due to change in fonts, output not same as like in previous stage. When i print from dot matrix Printer then sometime its shrink the character and sometime break the output..
Kindly help me in this regard, because this problem i am facing from last few days.
i am waiting for your quick response.
Thanks in advance....
Regards,
Nawaz
Edited by: Haq Nawaz on Nov 5, 2012 11:45 AM

Thank you very much for your reply
I have changed the fonts in the report, but when i run it from the EBS its has the same problem. from the EBS output font look like as (COURIER) rather than CALIBRI WESTERN.
tell me what i have to change anything.

Signal 11 error in Oracle Reports 6i

I can see partial output in the output file.
Below is the log file for the report.

Since this is a very specific issue, it could be necessary to call Oracle support. Very general there are problems reported, if NLS_LANG characterset (here UTF8) does not match the corresponding entry in
$ORACLE_HOME/guicommon6/tk60/admin/<your_language>/Tk2Motif.rgb
fontMapCs: iso8859-9=<other as UTF8>
Applying Oracle Developer 6i Patchset 9 or higher could also help.
But there are countless other reasons for a generic exception like signal 11 .

Printing Oracle Report.

I have a problem printing an Oracle report on a dot matrix
printer.
I have the report set to print in character mode
with the width and height of the report set to 132,31
respectivley and the width and height of paper
set to 7.25,11 each.
The problem is:
when I print my report it still prints on a whole A4 page.
isn't it supposed to stop printing somewhere on half of the A4?
I hope you can help me figure out the matter.
Jaq84.

Hi Prabodh,
I have used Debug mode and I see 2 debug entries added.
The first is just displaying all the page defaults - (I think the page gets reloaded when you select debug from the developer menu)
The second is the SUBMIT request and it shows the initial value of the hidden item (ie null) and then where I changed its value (ie Y).
The problem is, it does not list an entry for the page when it returns from the Report Status page, so I have no way of knowing if anything is
changing its value. I even changed code to set the item to N instead of null and then to Y on submit. But when I return from the Status page
the value remains at N, even though if I check the Session State values it will say Y. The only conclusion I can come to is that it is using the
cached values and effectively just displaying the values set before I submit the page.
I have been playing around with iFrames and it seems to work the way I want.
I created a new Page (5), then a HTML region. Within the HTML region i have the following code
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<iframe src="&P1_URL." width="500" height="300"></iframe>
</td>
</tr>
</table>I also create a button (Return) + branch and on submit will return to page 1.
From page 1, instead of branching to a URL, I now branch to page 5. This loads the Report Status page into my iFrame and indicates that it was
successful, but now instead of using the OK button within the status page I use the Return button that is part of the Apex application.
This way I no longer need the javascript or hidden items to try refresh the page , it will be done automagically once the return button is pressed.
I know it may not look great but it is the only solution I can get to work at the moment.
Thanks again for all your help, I really appreciated it.
Regards,
Ryan

OCI for Oracle Reports

Does anyone know if an OCI for Oracle Reports is available for Pro C/C++? If so where is it documented and how is it used?
Thanks,

Oracle7 for windows and OracleClient7 (oci.h, oci.o and others) for linux ?That would imply a really old version of windows (db side) and linux based os (client side). Perhaps SCO Unix was the only certified combination back then.
You should talk to someone who can verify platform/system requirements.
For the client side you might want to consider using a later Client release, a more recent old version (e.g. 8.1.7) that could talk to a Oracle7 server and work on your linux platform. There's a interoperability matrix on Metalink/MOS.

Oracle Reports - PDF report

I have a PDF report designed using oracle report builder 6i. This report has a margin that prints the total of all the quantities to be ordered via a QUOTE. If this report prints beyond one page, then the total will print on all the pages. Users do not want to see the total on all the pages but only on the last page. I really need to keep these total fields on the MARGIN section of the layout. Is there any way, i can still keep these fields on the margin and print them only on the last page of the report? The report builder do not let me set the 'print condition' as the 'last page' because it is in the margin section. Any idea on this issue??

I would create a trigger for your MARGIN totals so they print only on the last page.
Have the trigger return TRUE if current page = total pages, else return FALSE.
This will make sure your margin totals are only visible on the last page.

XML Publisher Report in EBS without Standard Oracle Report

Hi folks ,
i have some questions.
Can I create a XML Publisher Report for the EBS without a Standard Oracle Report in EBS.
So that I can build up the files with the Desktop Publisher, create Data Definition / Template with Upload / Create the executable und concurrent and than only start the new program in EBS ?
I have the situation that I can start my program with the template in the background but ít is searching for the report on the file system.
Thanks in advance for the feedback.
regards
Kay

Hi Ravi ,
can i do it only with the xml Publisher , because when i tried it in the past and get all the staff like Template / DD / CP up and running and started the CR i get an error from the system that he is missing a report directly in the file system... so he searched for the report himself on system like a standard 6i Report. But the template and the dd is stored in the db. So my question again, can I use the XML Puplisher without a Standard Report or can i use a dummy file only for checking and after that he use my template / dd.
regards
Kay

Help needed for MySQL 5 database DSN less connection with Oracle reports

Hi,
I am using Oracle Develper Suite and java (J2EE) for my application. I am using MySql 5 as database tool. I want to use Oracle reports of Oracle Develper suite. I have created some reports by first creating system DSN for MySql database and then connect Oracle reports to that DSN by "jdbc:odbc" connection string provided in Oracle Report developer wizard. This is working fine.
I want to generate reports without creating system DSN (DSN less) so that i can use my application on any computer without creating DSN for Oracle Reports. I am deploying my application on OC4j as "EAR" file.
Help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Regards.

Using an 8i client, you will need to configure the tnsnames.ora file with appropriate connection information if you are using local naming. If you are using host naming or something like an Oracle Names server to resolve TNS aliases, you can skip the tnsnames.ora configuration. A default installation of the Oracle client, though, will probably be using local naming.
If the tnsnames.ora file is configured, or you have configured an alternate way of resolving TNS aliases, you should be able to use the connection string
DRIVER={Oracle ODBC Driver};DBQ=<<TNS alias>>;UID=system;PWD=managerIf you wanted to move to the 10g client (the 10g Instant Client could be useful here), there are some streamlined naming methods that could be used instead of configuring the tnsnames.ora file.

Grouping in rtf template like oracle reports - a newbie question

Hello all
I am new to BI Publisher and have probablly a silly question to ask.
I have a basic query that returns a flat xml file which looks something like this. it will have multiple rows.
<ROWSET>
<ROW num="1">
<DATE>01-DEC-2007</DATE>
<PACKAGE>XXX </PACKAGE>
<DROP_OFF>Hotel1</DROP_OFF>
<ROOM>1</ROOM>
<NAME>Test Customer</NAME>
<PROBLEM_RECORDED>N</PROBLEM_RECORDED>
<EXCEPTION>1</EXCEPTION>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>
Because i am fairly new to xml i am at a loss trying to work out how i can form a template that will effectively allow grouping at say
1. Date Level
2. Package Level
3.Drop Off level
4. put all other data in here
In reports i would just do groups and alter the layout accordingly. Obviously if i had an oracle report version of the sql that generates the xml then i could just generate the xml from the report and i would get the xml i am looking for .
But I am working with basic sql not reports and am wondering What do I have to do with my xml to get it looking live the grouping I mention above, given all i have to play with is the example xml I included. I am really bamboozled and think i am missing something simple.
I dont want to have to write multiple queries with different groupings using cast , multiset as I thought one of the benefits of BI Publisher was one query multiple layouts.
Thanks
Lisa

If you haev word plugin installed,
please follow the documentation and try using that,
load the xml in the word plugin
and then select insert table/form and then you can do the drag and drop,
and group by each fields.
