Passing a value from Report A to B when B is in a different Subject Area

I had posted a question previously on how to pass the Dept # from Report A to B when B i in a different Subject Area. The question was:
Report A is a table on the Dashboard that shows Actual vs Budget results by Department. I want the user to click on the Department and be navigated to report B that shows the detail transactions that make up the Actual results. Report A and B are from different underlying subject areas. Thus when I navigate to report B, I see ALL departments, and not the one I clicked on in Report A to bring up Report B. How can I limit the results in Report B to be just the respective cell I clicked on in Report A?
I got great advice from Nico on how to use the GO URL, but I can only get that to work if the 2 reports in question are from the same data model. In my case they are NOT.
The GO URL seems to be working, as it does open up Report B when I click on the Department field in Report A, but it does not pass the Department number to Report B, even though reprot B has that field "as prompted".
Can anyone definitively indicate whether what I'm trying to do is not possible in BI EE?

Read this from Venkat... I think this will be helpful in understanding prompts, both the column prompts (Answers) type and the dashboard prompts. Very useful, I think.

  • Pass value from report on skillbuilder modal page

    I am using the skillbuilder modal dialog. I have a report that displays in the modal. I want to pass a value from the report back to the page that called the modal and then close the modal. I have tried several different things, but I have not been successful. Any ideas?

    Not sure if you have completely read the instructions.pdf that comes with the plugin. The "Events" section (Auto Close event) under "Advanced Usage" in the pdf may help you.
    Anyways, I have not tried this solution.

  • How to pass value from report to form?

    Dear,
    I built a report and I create button on report too. This
    button will show a form that I want it to automatically show
    receivable values from report so that user don't complete them.
    So I create a button on the report . I enter Javascript in
    PL/SQL Code tab in '...after displaying the footer' as follow :
    htp.formOpen
    (owa_util.get_owa_service_path||'portal30.wwa_app_module.link?
    p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=1736929105&p_arg_names=_show_h
    eader&p_arg_values=YES&p_arg_names=GNO&p_arg_values=1&p_arg_names
    =QNO&p_arg_values=2');
    htp.formSubmit(null,'New Answer');
    htp.formClose;
    GNO , QNO is value which I want to pass
    As you can see, the above code can pass only static value.
    But I want to pass values that is the condition of this report.
    I mean,such as, this report show data that gno=1 and qno=2 and I
    want to pass these values to form. So both value will appear in
    gno and qno field.
    So please tell me what should I do. Please help me. I don't
    know how to do it. I look forward to hearing from all of you.
    Please!!!!!! Don't hesitate to answer.
                        Thank you very much

    Hi Marc,
    Yes, you have it correct in what I am trying to do and if I put a default value in the hidden item on page 2 and run it then that works fine. I just can't get the value from the form passed to page 2 for some reason. There are actually 22 items on the form that can be filtered but just using COREID for simplicity. When I run the form I am just entering a value in the COREID field to try and return those records. Most of the other items on the form are displayed as Popup LOV(fetches first row). Would the values of all these be done the same in a comma delimited list for the items and values? I was trying to get at least one of them working first. Here is the search result that comes up in the debug window:
    Search Results
    0.01: Item: P2_COREID HIDDEN
    0.01: show report
    0.02: determine column headings
    0.02: parse query as: MOTEAMSAPEX
    0.02: binding: ":P2_COREID"="P2_COREID" value=""
    0.02: print column headings
    0.02: rows loop: 15 row(s)
    No data found.
    Here is the SQL statement:
    select coreid, serialnumber
    from MOTEAMS.V_ASSETS where
    instr(UPPER("COREID"), UPPER(:P2_COREID)) > 0
    The branch settings are:
    Set these items: P2_COREID
    With these values: &P1_COREID (also tried this with period at the end)
    I am new to this and not familiar with apex.oracle.com. How would I go about posting to that site?

  • How to pass the value from Sub report to main report

    I have un report(mainreport) within a subreport(subreport).
    With reporting services, how to pass the value from Sub report to main report?
    thanks

    Hi Alebet,
    With reporting services to pass values from sub report in to main report is not supported directly.
    But there are some workarounds through which you can get this .
    There are two ways to get this.
    1- Put your sub report query into some table. i mean to say through the subreport query get some temporary table.
    2- Using this temporary tables data write some Scala function in the data base.
    3- Now in your main report query return this scala function as a column.
    4- Extract the column value where ever you want in your main report which is getting calculated from the subreport query. so you will be getting the values returned from the subreport in the main report.
    This will definitely work fine as i have done some report in this way.
    Another way of doing is that
    1- prepare another data set with the same query as in sub report in the data tab.
    2- then refer this 2nd dataset in your main report .
    But better way will be the top one.
    Anyway please let me know if you get the solution.
    Thanks

  • Retruning parameter/value from report to form - (Urgent)

    Hi ,
    I am calling a report (2.5) from a form using RUN_PRODUCT. I would like to know if there is any way to do the following.
    (a) Return a value from reports to calling form. For ex. I would like to know the last Item name (assuming the reports prints all items in inventory) printed. I am sending a from and to numbers of item id's (range) and I need to know the last item printed.
    (b). Check the success of report. For example, while printing the 5 items (the range that I passed) if there is any error in printing , this should be tracked either in the form or report. If this is not possible using run_product , If I need to use srw package, how to use it. Can I call the report as usual with run_product and in the after parameter trigger can, I call the report again and track error.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Jesh:
    I have made the following modifications to your app to get it to work as I thing you need it to.
    1) Changed the source for the HTML Buttons Region(note use of id vs name for the Buttons)
    <script>
    function hilitebtn(val) {
    //gray buttons
    $x('graduate').style.backgroundColor='gray'
    $x('distance').style.backgroundColor='gray'
    $x('career').style.backgroundColor='gray'
    $x('photo').style.backgroundColor='gray'
    //AJAX call to get project-ids
    var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$x('pFlowId').value,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=GETPROJECTS',0);
    get.addParam('x01',val)
    gReturn = get.get();
    var arr=gReturn.split(':');  //dump into array
    get = null;
    for (i=0;i<arr.length;i++) {
    // alert('val=' + arr);
    if ( arr[i]==5)
    $x('graduate').style.backgroundColor='red';
    if ( arr[i]==6)
    $x('distance').style.backgroundColor='red';
    if ( arr[i]==7)
    $x('career').style.backgroundColor='red';
    if ( arr[i]==8)
    $x('photo').style.backgroundColor='red';
    </script>
    <table cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' border='0'>
    <tr><td>
    <input type='button' id='graduate' value='Graduate'>
    </td>
    <td>
    <input type='button' id='distance' value='Distance'>
    </td>
    <td>
    <input type='button' id='career' value='Career/Tech'>
    </td>
    <td>
    <input type='button' id='photo' value='Photos'>
    </td>
    </tr></table>
    2) Defined the application process  GETPROJECTS as DECLARE
    IDS varchar2(1000);
    l_act_code varchar2(100) :=4;
    begin
    IDS:='';
    l_act_code := wwv_flow.g_x01;
    for x in(
    SELECT ACT_CODE,PROJECT_ID
    FROM ASQ_CONTACT
    where ACT_CODE = l_act_code)
    LOOP
    IDS := IDS || X.PROJECT_ID|| ':' ;
    END LOOP;
    HTP.PRN(IDS);
    END;
    3) Changed the 'onchange' event-handler on p1_act_code to be 'onchange=hilitebtn(this.value)'
    4) Added the JS to the HTML Page Footer <script>
    hilitebtn($v('P1_ACT_CODE'));

  • Passing the values from one pgm to another pgm (Calling pgm has no sel scr)

    Hi gurus,
    In my requirement i need to pass the values from one program to another program.
    I am using SUBMIT statement . But , the program which i am calling has no selection screen.
    So how can i pass the values?
    Please help me ASAP.
    Regards,
    Bhanu.R

    Export your internal tables or work areas to a memory id in ur program before u use submit.
    Then in second pgm you have to import from memory id given above.
    example.
    EXPORT gs_header FROM gs_header to memory id 'HEADER'.
    EXPORT gt_item FROM gt_item to memory id 'ITEM'.
    SUBMIT YFIIN_DISHC_MAILREPORT EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY AND RETURN.
    In your second pgm you can write
    import gs_header TO gs_header from MEMORY id 'HEADER'.
    import gt_item TO gt_item from MEMORY id 'ITEM'.

  • How do I pass input values from an OTL timecard to a Fast Formula (FF)?

    Hi - I hope my question is a simple one, but after hours of searching I have a feeling it is not. I currently have a FF rule that checks if benefit hours were entered in whole or half day increments. If not, an error is shown after 'Continue' is clicked. I fully understand the setup of this rule and all I want to do is enhance it a bit. I want to verify if the Task Code and Expenditure Type code combination that is coded is correct. If they are not, I want to flag it. My issue is: I have not been able to pass the values of Task Code and Expenditure Type to the FF successfully. They are not database values and any aliases I try do not work (I assume they would be input variables passed to the FF). Any tips would be appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Rob

    You should read these values from the attributes pl/sql tables in your FF code. The timecard related info gets passed to the FF as context when you are creating a time entry rule FF.

  • Passing filter values from column formula in OBIEE 10g

    Hi,
    I am trying to pass filter value from the column LY Spend YTD columns where we have a filter option and passing the year filter 2013 as below.
    FILTER("Fact - Purchasing - Invoice"."LY Spend YTD" USING (Time."Year" = '2013'))
    My goal behind doing this is, we have a filter already present for the whole criteria on the year which is 2012.
    But specifically for this column i dont want to pass the year 2012 to it, Instead I want to pass 2013 to it. But I am not succeding the result is blank.
    Please suggest and let me know if further understanding is needed.

    Hi Srini
    Thanks for you reply.
    I cannot do that way because some measures are satisfying with year 2012 and displaying the data and other measure are satisfying with 2013.
    I am working on LY Spend YTD, LY spend YTD - 1, Spend YTD and Year ago spend.
    So thats the reason I have thought that way of passing the filter in column formula irrespective of criteria filter.
    Please suggest.

    Hi  Pradeep
    Steps:
    1. First create an instance for bapi and bind the instance to the bapi node.
      Z<bapi name> zb=new Z<bapi name>();
      wdContext.nodeZ<bapi name>. bind(zb);
    2. Then if u have the import parameter u have to set them by using
        The instance of the above bapi.
        Zb.set<import parameters>;
    3. If the bapi has a table parameters then the structure for the table parameters will also be imported
       In the model class.
    4. Set the table parameters by creating the instance for that structure and using this instance set it.
       Z<Struct>itm tab=new Z<Struct>();
       Tab.set<table parameters>
    5. Then add the structure instance to the bapi instance.
        Zb.add(Tab);
    6. Then Execute the bapi after setting the import parameters.
    7.  If there is any export parameters, then get the values after execution.

  • Is it possible to pass  a value from the list to another page..

    Hi everyone,
    I created a (list region) on a page and there is a FORM on the same page.I am trying to pass a value from that page to another page when the user selects one of the list entries.I tried with SET THESE ITEM.. WITH THESE VALUES in the list entries like
    SET THESE ITEMS--P13_TESTING_ID
    WITH THESE VALUES --&P10_ID.
    but its not working for me.I want to pass that value only when the user hits that list entry.Is it possible to do.
    Thanku
    phani

    Assuming P10_ID is an item on the FORM, I think , the form would have to be posted (submitted) for the item's vaue to be available in session state.
