Partial Paging on Report Regions

I haven't seem a large use of Partial Paging on Report regions on any of the example packaged application
Is there a way I can implement partial paging on a subset of a report region ? e.g. I have a grid like the following
project 1
task 1
task 2
project n
task 1
task 2
If I click on projects the tasks belonging it should expand .
In my ASP application I just hide and display with DIV statements. Now I am upgrading to APEX I want to use Partial Paging. How flexible are report regions in APEX in regards to customising to this level and can it be done ?

We will look into it. Since PPR is built in now we should turn it on pretty much everywhere.

No, the region is not appearing because it is conditional on P2_QUERY being NOT NULL. This means that the report region never exists on the page shown in the browser, so it can't be dynamically refreshed. (Dynamic refresh doesn't evaluate region conditions, and it only re-renders the report content, not the entire region.)
Remove the condition on the report region, check the refresh is working, then reconsider exactly what the requirements here are. If you want the region to appear only when P2_QUERY has a value, and you want it to be refreshed without submitting and re-rendering the page, then the region needs to be hidden rather than conditionally rendered, and shown via a dynamic action when P2_QUERY gets a value.
I tried adding an additional Set Value True Action for the DA event but got an error as listed above,
All irrelevant if Page Items to Submit on the region is used properly.

SQL Report Region

Hi,
I am using apex 4.0.1 and I have a page with several SQL Report regions. The user can edit the data in the report regions by clicking a column that uses a href link to open a DML page in a modal window. The user can then amend some data in the modal window, press save which closes the modal window and uses the partial page refresh process to refresh the SQL report region. (Using apex.event.trigger('#SOME_REGION'),'apexrefresh')).
If I navigate through the report to show rows 31-45 and then click on a href to edit a record. On pressing save, the report is refreshed but the rows displayed goes back to 1-15.
How can I get the report to stay showing the rows 31-45?
Cheers
Paul.

Apex 4.2 dynamic action to refresh a report region on a different page

Hi,
I open up a pop up window from a report region. When the user is done in the pop-up window and closes it, can I trigger a refresh on the report region using dynamic actions without actually reloading the whole page? I know I can use dynamic action on a page to refresh the report region on the same page.
Thanks,
Sinan

Sinan,
So long as the region to be refreshed is still loaded, you can do this. I don't know how you are loading your pop-up or unloading it but, the principle should be the same as what I provide below.
Assume that you have set the static ID for your report to MY_REPORT. (Be sure you have checked "Allow Partial Page Refresh" in the Report Attributes).
$('#confirmBox').find('div#userConfirmationMessage').html( '<span class="userInputRequest">Would you to Refresh your Report?</span>' );
$('#confirmBox').dialog(
    autoOpen: true,
    modal: true,
    title: 'Refresh Conformation',
    buttons:
        'No': function ()
            $(this).dialog('close');
        'Yes': function ()
            $(this).dialog('close');
             $('#MY_REPORT').trigger('apexrefresh');

Dynamic action with interactive report region refresh

Hi!
I'm using APEX 4.02
I've got a page with 2 regions.
Region1 is a (input) form
Region2 is an interactive report on the same table as region 1
When entering values on the form I'm trying to dynmically lookup similar records in the table with the interactive report.
I've made a dynamic action on the change of the form fields which should refresh the interactive report region. I can see this one fires if I add a alert to debug if it fires.
The dynamic report is based on a query with bind variables pointing to the form fields, for example
where
field1 = :P2_FIELD1
This works great on the page load, so no dynamic action is fired but I can see the rows in the report region are the ones I am looking for.
But the refresh of the report region is not working, it is never refreshing and/or showing the correct data after a change of the form fields, so it looks like the dynamic action "refresh region" is not working on the interactive report.
Any ideas why this can go wrong ?
I would like to solve this using standard dynamic actions and preferrably not via PL/SQL or JS, shoudl be possible if I should believe the documentation... ;)
Cheers
Bas

Hi,
When you change value to item, I assume you do not set value to session state.
Use interactive report advanced attributes "Page Items to Submit" , set items session state before report is refreshed.

Report Region show all rows?

Hi,
I have a report region in which I want to show all rows. Setting the pagination scheme to No Pagination doesn't
seem to do the trick. I have set Number of Rows and Maximum Row Count both to NULL. Nothing seems to work.
Is there some trick to get all rows to be displayed?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I have two report regions on different pages. On both I have set 'Number of Rows' and 'Maximum Row Count' to null. One report will return all the records in a query (~800), the other report will only return 500. I can't see any other differences in the reports that would cause this behaviour.
I didn't really want to restrict my reports to a set number of rows, is this really the only option?
Thanks,
Rochelle.

Performance issue for Report Regions

We have an app which has as it's "Home Page" a portal-style page. The "portlets" are separate regions. Some of these regions are HTML forms, but most are report regions, invariably with PL/SQL returning the SQL query.
On our dev box this portal renders fine, in no more than 5 seconds (acceptable). On the production box a couple of the portlets go crazy, usually taking between 1-2 minutes each. I know this because I added the #TIMING# string to each region footer. The portal page has a META tag to refresh every 120 seconds.
The first thing I did to debug was to take the PL/SQL function body returning the SQL query, replace all the variables (which are just local vars, app items and page items) with hardcoded values, strip all quotes and run the "cleaned up" SQL query in SQLPlus. It executes very fast.
So my conclusion is that the problem lies with the application server (which is Oracle iAS). Is this a logical conclusion? What should my next move be to get to the bottom of this?
Even without the problem portlets the portal refresh speed varies widely, between <1 sec and >10 sec.
The application also has other pages displaying the portal regions individually. These pages (including those with the "problem portlet" queries) render ok (ie, order of 5 seconds or less). This tells me that there is an issue with having a bunch of query-based regions on the same page.
My guess is that I might need to examine the logs and/or httpd/modplsql settings of the app server. Number of simultaneous connections?
What would happen if hundreds of users used this app concurrently, navigated to the portal page and left it like that to auto-refresh every 2 minutes? Are such pages a no-no in HTMLDB?

Some more information:
When I run the page in debug mode, I see the following timings for one of the problem portlets:
11.53: show report
11.54: determine column headings
11.54: parse query
60.95: binding: ":F118_BUNDLE"="F118_BUNDLE" value="1"
60.95: binding: ":P52_STMETRICS_PRODBRANCH"="P52_STMETRICS_PRODBRANCH" value="RDBMS_MAIN"
60.95: binding: ":P52_STMETRICS_PLATFORM"="P52_STMETRICS_PLATFORM" value="LINUX"
61.35: print column headings
61.35: rows loop: 15 row(s)
[report is printed here]
61.49: FORMITEM: P52_STMETRICS_PLATFORM HIDDEN
61.54: FORMITEM: P52_STMETRICS_PRODBRANCH HIDDEN
This tells me that the bulk of the time (50 seconds in this case) is eaten up in parsing the query. What is this symptomatic of?
Another problem I've just noticed. It takes about 5 seconds to open up a region for editing (Region Definition) in HTMLDB. When I click "Apply Changes" (even without editing anything) it is taking on the order of minutes for the changes to be applied to the page. Our app server was bounced just before I noticed this.

User Interface Template for Interactive Report Region

In 3.2, where do we set the user interface template for Interactive Reports region?
No matter what out of the box theme I switch to, the Interactive Reports region shows the same. What and where do I change the template so that alternating rows use two different colors?

There is no template for Interactive Reports like for a "normal" report. You need to modify the CSS and supply your own for this to happen.
I believe most things are tagged with #apexir - firebug with Firebox is invaluable. This thread may help:

Link in report region

Hi,
I have report region(type=sql query). In that report region i want to add a hyperlink(View all). When user clicks on the hyperlink it should bring them to another page. Can anyone help me in this issue. i am using apex4.0.

Where can i find button classIn the button template
Usually(depend's on the theme) redirect buttons template are link tags with some class that styles them like a button. Else you can create such a button template(by copying it from another theme) without any styling
For example a button template like
<a #BUTTON_ATTRIBUTES# class="" href="#LINK#">#LABEL#</a>would render the button like a plain link

Change the 'No data found.' message in a report region

I've got a report region (PL/SQL source) which sometimes returns no data, giving a 'No Data Found.' message.
I couild have sworn there was an option to choose a custom message in the region definition when no data is returned - but I can't see that option. I guess it must have been in another region type.
Is there some other way of setting the No Data Returned message?

Hi,

Hide 'No data found' msg in report region when you 1st click search page

Hi,
(sorry if it's confusing but my APEX is in FRENCH and I tried to translate)
I created a search page in my application.
1- I have an HTML region, with a search box and I search button
2- I've got a report region (PL/SQL source) which sometimes returns no data, giving a 'No Data Found.' message.
When I click on the search page for the 1st time (on my navigation bar), I would like to HIDE the report region so I don't have the " No Data Found" message.
Only Once we click on the search button and there is no result, I want to have the message "No Data FOund"
How can I achieve this?
thanks
Roseline

1. create a hidden element on your page (P1_HIDDEN_ELEMENT)
2. put your No Data Found message in a span tag
<span id="no_data_found">No Data Found</span>3. create an on load computation to set your P1_HIDDEN_ELEMENT to 'no_data_found' if it is NULL and to set it to ' ' if it is NOT NULL - type PL/SQL Function Body
BEGIN
   IF :p1_hidden_element IS NULL
   THEN
      RETURN '<script>html_HideElement(''no_data_found'');</script>';
   ELSIF :p1_hidden_element IS NOT NULL
   THEN
      RETURN ' ';
   END IF;
END;4. Put this into the page footer:
&P1_HIDDEN_ELEMENT.The other solution would be to create a display region - pure HTML and to display that first. Once the search is started that region would remain hidden and only the report would show up.

"Between NVL" - Works in SQL Command, not in APEX report region

First, I realize I could use dynamic SQL (model 4), but I don't want to (too hard just yet).
I have a select statement with a series of Where conditions that employ values, in bind variables, supplied by the user.
I want the choice of parameters to be optional, so I am checking for and replacing nulls.
Select emp_name from employee_table where
emp_rating between nvl(:p7_rating_choice, 0) and nvl(:p7_rating_choice, 99)
and
emp_language_no between nvl(:p7_lang_choice, 0) and nvl(:p7_lang_choice, 99);
(the binds should be numeric).
The actual statement is quite a bit longer, but the point is that the BETWEEN NVL(:x, min) AND NVL(:x, max) piece does not seem to work when used in a report region.
It works fine if ALL parameters are provided, but returns an error if one or more are null.
In the SQL command window it works (with a pop-up) just fine.
By the way, the :p7_lang_choice bind variable is chosen from a LOV list which works in all other cases.
Also, if I disable nulls (choosing "no" in ITEM page), everything works fine. It seems that the substitution of the min and max values via the NVL returns the wrong data type.
Any ideas what I have done wrong?

Thanks Scott.
Every day brings a little more understanding!
I also noticed a simplified method in the APEX documentation (although there was no explanation of the code) as follows:
Where
(column = :p1_user_input_1 OR :p1_user_input_1 = [null substitution value])
AND
(column = :p1_user_input_2 OR :p1_user_input_2 = [null substitution value])
AND
etc...
Using the value you provide in the LOV section for the null, the second part of the OR handles the null situation.
For some reason I was so tied up with comparing to the column that I never thought to have an OR with a compare to something else.
Oh well.
Thanks,
Norm

How to get the SQL Statement of a report region?

For example: The SQL of report region such as "SELECT A,B,C FROM T1 WHERE A = :P10_A".
I hope to get the converted statement (the variable has been replaced), like this:
:P10_A = 'TOM', SQL: "SELECT A,B,C FROM T1 WHERE A = 'TOM'".
THX.

I agree with John with the usual caveat about using bind variables.
In other words, you should use
SELECT A,B,C FROM T1 WHERE A = :P10_Ainstead of SELECT A,B,C FROM T1 WHERE A = 'foo'so that the shared pool doesn't get clutterred with copies of the same (sharable) SQL.
Even if you use the "PL/SQL function returning a SQL query", be sure to use bind variables in your SQL and not "glue in" session state by concatenating it into the query.
Thanks.

2 Report -Regions combine in 1 Report-Region but 2 different SQL-Querys

Hallo,
I have a question.
I have a page and within this page 2 different report-regions. Each of this regions has its own sql-query.
Now I would like to concentrate them in 1 report with one title. But there are still 2 differnet sql-query
that I can't combine. My issue is that I only want to show the result in one report.
Does this work or is there a workaround I could do?
Thanks, Jade

Hi,
As the report region's title is just whatever text you've entered, you can just put the title on the second report onto the first report and set the second report to use "No Template". You would probably need to remove the pagination settings for both reports - select No Pagination and set the row count to a high number.
The final bit would probably require a new report template - you can create a copy of the existing report template that you're using - and remove the Column Heading Template setting. This is only necessary if you need to remove the column headings from the second report. There would be a gap between the two reports - not sure if you need to remove this as well? If so, you would have to adjust both templates to remove the this from the bottom of the first report and the top of the second report.
I think that how you go about this will depend on exactly what you need to see between the two reports - if they need to look as though they are just a single report then you may have to complete all of the above steps.
