Parameter form values

How can I have the default set to uppercase for all the values entered in the parameter form.

You can't force the entry value to be uppercase in the display but you can always force the value entered to be uppercase using the validation trigger.
ie: for a parameter: P_1 have:
function P_1ValidTrigger return boolean is
begin
:p_1 := upper(:p_1);
return (TRUE);
end;

Displaying Graphics on Parameter Form

Hi,
Previously I have post one question regarding changing the displaying layout of the parameter form. I have try to put some graphics, comapany logo in the header of the parameter form by Editing its HTML code in the Before Parameter Form Value properties. The source of the image is something like "/images/logo.jpg" instead of the full path name.
But in the server, where should I have to create the image folder to store the image? What is the virtual directory or default directory when the Report is call from the web browser?
Thanks
Reagards,
Cheong

Hello,
It is the Navigator which will retrieve the image. (/image/logo.jpg)
The virtual directory image must exist in the HTTP server and the logo.jpg file
must exist in the "physical directory" corresponding to the "virtual directory"
image.
You should be able to get the image typing http:/<http server name>:<port>/image/logo.jpg
in the URL field of the Navigator.

Null value in parameter form.

In parameter form I want to leave blank option in order to print a report for all the values in the parameter form. I am writing the query for the parameter LOV that it fetches the values and making a union with 'select to_char(null) from dual.
I am getting a blank and the required output when the report is run using the report builder but the this blank space or null value disappears when the report is run on application server 10g. It seems to be a small problem but I am not able to get a solution for this. Please, suggest something.

Hi,
Instead of a Null, why not use '-ALL-',
   union all
   select '-ALL-'
   from    dualthen in your query, you will have,
where column_1 = decode(:param1, '-ALL-', column_1, :param1) that way it will be more clearer for the users that if they picked '-ALL-' in the LOV that they will get all records and will eliminate the problem you are having with null when you deploy your report in application server.

Null values not displaying in the LOV on the parameter form.

My report works perfect while in Oracle Reports 10g, however when I move it to our menu (Oracle Forms 10g) it does not display the null in the LOV on the parameter form.
This report allows the the user to select by inspector or district or everyone for certain dates.
Ex: I have 4 parameter fields. The user must enter the start & end dates and either the Inspector or the district or leave the inspector or district null to run for everyone.
The district LOV is :
select dnr_section_code, description from dnr_section_code where dnr_section_code in ('29', '38','52')
UNION
select null, 'All' from dual
order by 2 asc ;
The inspector LOV is:
select null , 'All' from dual
UNION
select person_seq, first_name||' '||last_name inspector from vw_eng_inspectors
order by 2 asc
In my Data Model query I use the :
My select
from tables
where clause
+
----by inspector
and (prod_fac_inspections.person_seq_inspector =
nvl(:inspector,prod_fac_inspections.person_seq_inspector))
---by district
and
(d.dnr_section_code = nvl(:district,d.dnr_section_code)
and d.person_seq = prod_fac_inspections.person_seq_inspector)
Again, it works perfect in Reports! It eliminates having 3 reports on the menu. This one report gives the user the option of selecting dynamic parameters.
Also, I got so frustrated, that I went a different route of using a default where.
I am stuck with the error of ORA:00933 SQL command not ended properly
1=1
I set the initial value to 1=1 and it does not like it.
I am stuck!

Hi Krishna,
I'm not sure I understand the probelm.
A progress bar control only displays numeric values. When do you mean by "unassigned values"? What would you expect to be presented?

Report Parameter form not showing list of values in Report svr

I was using reports 6i where I used to have list box in report parameter form. I now converted recompiled my reports in 10g and when I run I am not geting the list of values. I get the values as a list below the field
ex.
ITEM :___________
box,book,pencil,rubber,
dvd,floppy...
previously it was coming as a list in the item field
thanks

Hello,
http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/reports/10.1.2/topics/htmlhelp_rwbuild_hs/rwwhthow/howto/params/pmp_creating_list_of_values.htm?tp=true
If you run the report from a Web browser and the list of values is unrestricted, the HTML Parameter Form will display a text field instead of a combo box, and a list of static values that you can copy and paste into the text field.

Values in one field based on another field in the paper parameter form.....

Hi All,
I have two fields in the parameter form. One named 'employee number' and the other named 'document number'. Now, there are multiple document numbers for every employee. I'd like the document numbers to be displayed automatically as an LOV or would like to give the user some help when the employee number is entered manually. Please let me know if this is possible in Oracle reports. I read somewhere that I'll have to call the values from the form. if that is the case. then please let me know how to go about it....
Regards,
Shri

Hi Hari,
Considering both Market Segment and Application fields are dropdown,
1) define an event for the first dropdown in the get_p method ie., Market Segment field
2) In the get_v method of the second dropdown get the value of hte 1st dropdown and filter your field accordingly
Note: The reason for defining an event in (1) is just to do a server submit.. its actually act as a dummy event if you dont want to handle your logic here
Hope this was helpful.
Best Regards,

Parameter values are not showing in in the Organization Parameter form

We have done a setup for an Inventory Organization.
Everything was working fine.
Values were showing everywhere.
We have lot of transactions done in the org also.
But suddenly yesterday when I was trying to open the Organization Parameter form for that specific organization, the form came up as blank and in the bottom the error is Query caused no records.
I have checked data is there in the base table mtl_parameters.
Value is coming for other organizations. Only one specific organization is having this issue.
Even in Examine, I have taken the last query run on that form and ran the same in back end database, I can see all values are there in the database.
But in frontend screen the values are not showing. even organization code also not showing.
Navigation is: Inv Super user --> Setup --> Organization --> Parameter

Have you checked Organization Access to ensure that no one restricted that org?
Or shipping grants and roles?
I think there are quite a few places that you can restrict access.

Multi value select LOV in report builder 10g parameter form.

Hi All,
I have a requirement to show a set of records by getting user input through the report parameter form.
employee Table.
emp_id emp_name
1 A
2 B
3 C

In the report i am getting emp_id input from the user through list of values (LOV query is "select emp_id from employee where emp_id =:emp_id").
This condition is working for me. now user want to select multiple emp_id from the LOV. so that the sql query will get the related records from the employee table.
so the LOV query will work like the following "select emp_id from employee where emp_id in (:emp_id)".
can enybody help me to acheive the above.
Thanks

By all means feel free to post your question as often as you like!
In webforms DDE runs on the middle tier; it might do what you want against your local OC4J now, but it surely won't open a thing when you run it against an application server.
Maybe you should enlighten us with your requirement, maybe there is a better solution for your problem.

Filtering List of Values in Parameter form

1. I am calling reports from (web based) forms 6i and passing a parameter. Based on the parameter, i want to restrict the list of values in the parameter form of the report.
2. I have two items in parameter form. Based on value entered in item 1, i want to filter values in item 2 (depending List of values).
Is it possible to do the above?

I don't think so.
We had to create a form with poplists to do the limitation of the second based on the first. By doing that we essentially bypassed the default parameter form and just passed the exact parameters we wanted.

Parameter Form-How to use a user parameter to retrieve list of values for another par

I am developing a report in Reports 6i. There are 2 parameters on parameter form namely year and month.
LOV for Year is retrieved from database. After user selects a value from LOV for year, I want to retrieve another LOV for month parameter based on selected year. That is how can we use a user parameter's value to dynamically retrieve an LOV for another parameter on the same parameter form.
Pl. guide.
Thanks in anticipation.

You can't restrict the "List of Values" of one parameter based on the value of another parameter within the Reports Builder/Runtime parameter form.
The SQL select statements within LOV's are only executed once. They aren't re-calculated when you enter, leave or change other field values in the parameter form. This is mainly because there is no event model in the Reports parameter form and it only supports basic form functionality.
To do what you're after in a client-server environment you need to create an Oracle Forms "parameter form" and use that to execute the Report using the run_product() call. Actually, you should probably use Oracle Forms for any more generic "form" functionality such as radio buttons or check boxes.
If you're in a Web rather than Client-Server environment, it may be easier to create a JSP based parameter form. You can then use Reports 9i since it has JSP support to assist here.

Value to be assigned to a parameter field (web report parameter form)

In a Oracle 10g report In parameter form we have DESTYPE and DESNAME. In database we have PRINTERNAME. we are using run_product to open the report. Now we are in the url
http://192.168.178.29:7779/reports/rwservlet/getjobid2214?server=rep_inexpas02_OracleFRSR2
Parameter form:
When we change the value of DESTYPE to Printer I want assign printername in DESNAME field. Other wise DESNAME should be blank. Is there any trigger like when change field of DESTYPE in parameter form (web) assign some value to DESNAME. (AFTER PARAMETER FORM AND BEFORE REPORT ARE NOT SOLVING THE PURPOSE)

Is it correct taht you use forms to invoke the report? If so, a possible solution is to "create" your own parameter-form in forms itself, where you can do such validations and logic as you need. Then run the report without parameter-form.

LOV Initial value on Parameter form

Hi, I am new to Oracle Reports so I hope this is not a lame question.
I have a drop down list on my parameter form based on a select query. My problem arises when I run the report, I would like the list to display a blank value as the initial value rather than the first value returned by the select statement. Does anyone have any ideas?

You could always do something like:
select ename from
(select null ename from dual
union
select ename from emp)
order by nvl(upper(ename), 'A')

How do I properly pass values into an input parameter form and app module?

Using JDeveloper 11.1.1.4
I created an application module that calls a PL/SQL procedure that uses input parameters. I exposed this to the data control and dropped the object on a jsff as a input parameter form. I need to set some of the input parameters on this form from values gathered and stored in a pageFlowScope bean. What is the proper way so that the values will: 1. show on the form, and 2. get to the java code in the application module that calls my procedure? An example field from my form is:
        <af:inputText value="#{bindings.pPayerId.inputValue}" label="Payer ID"
                      required="#{bindings.pPayerId.hints.mandatory}"
                      columns="#{bindings.pPayerId.hints.displayWidth}"
                      maximumLength="#{bindings.pPayerId.hints.precision}"
                      shortDesc="#{bindings.pPayerId.hints.tooltip}" id="it8">
          <f:validator binding="#{bindings.pPayerId.validator}"/>
          <af:convertNumber groupingUsed="false" pattern="#{bindings.pPayerId.format}"/>
        </af:inputText>Thanks,
Troy

Thanks Shay for pointing me in that direction.
I didn't find the NDValue in the bindings, so I went to the pagedef xml and found it there. Changing the NDValue successfully delivered the value to the app module when the method was executed, but didn't show the value on the form. I had to add the same #{pageFlowScope.paramsBean.fileFormatParam} to the value of the input field and it now is working as needed.

Required Dependent List of Values in Reports Parameter Form

Dear All,
These days I am facing a problem in Oracle Reports(ver. 2.5). I have develope a report. In the parameter form of this report, I want a list of value (LOV) on the second field which should be dependent on the first field value.
For Example, In The Employee Details report, I have a Parameter form in which there are 2 Parameter fields, 1 is Deptno and the other is Empno. I want to attach a LOV on the Empno field but in this LOV I want to display only those empno's which should be dependent on the Deptno field.
Thanks

Parameter List displaying all the values on Parameter form

Dear All...If I uncheck the "Restrict List to predetermined values" option, then report parameter form displays all the values on web parameter form instead of displaying those values in the List Item. Is it the Default behaviour of Oracle Reports 10g or Can I control it anyway because if I've 1000 entries in a list, then displaying all those values openly on the form is an ugly thing and it increases the size of parameter form very much.
