Passing Display Name to Portlet(report) as a parameter???

Does anyone know if we can pass the Display Name for a report dynamically to the portlets?
For now, I have had to create one page for each report(portlet) by Overwriting the report display
option and using specific Query Option for each portlet. Preferably I would just call the report
with two parameters, one used in the sql to narrow down the query and the second for the Display
Name.
Thanks in advance,
Yahya

  • Passing table name to a report.

    I am designing an application that will draw data from any of a number of different tables (all with different data formats, but the same column names), and wish for this data to be displayed in a report. In the table that contains the selection criteria, I have included columns for schema name and table name. How can I pass these values into the report, and in turn, into a graph?
    I've tried this, but it doesn't work.
    SELECT data_column FROM
    :schema_column.:data_column;

    HI ,
    the table name can be easily passed on to the sql use lexicaly parameter as below
    SELECT data_column FROM
    &table_name where &where_clause
    once you write this query it will give you a message that a bind variable was created . Now you can assign value to this through parameter form or write a code in the after parameter form trigger and also generate the where clause if required .
    do you have same column name in different tables with different data types ?? if so then i really dont know how to solve this problem other wise it should not be a problem

    How to write field catelog for this requirement?
    Thanks in Advance.

    I think in the fieldcat, at the time of declearation, you can alter the field description depending on the present month.
    If present_month = January
    wa_fieldcat-reptext_ddic = 'January'.       " Field description
    elseif present month = February.
    wa_fieldcat-reptext_ddic = 'February'.       " Field description

  • Presentation Layer - Custom Display Name

    We use Oracle Datamarts as Data Source thus in our Repository a lot of information is just routed through. Of course we configured the joins in the physical layer and added some hierarchies, joins and calculated measures to the business model.
    The question is now where to set the right column names which the end users will see (translation from technical column names to business column names). Normally I read that the naming should be done in the business model and then can be copied to the presentation model.
    Is there any reason why not to leave alle the technical column names through to the presentation model and just to do the naming with the Custom Display Names? This had the advantage that we could rename the column display names and the reports never had to be modified.
    Thank you for your thoughts and input

    The main reason could be this:
    If the attribute has been used in multiple subject areas, there is no need to go each subject areas and rename them, instead a one time rename in Business Modeling layer will do the work. Eg. Suppose there is a common dimension, say, Supplier/Customer/Time which are used in multiple subject areas. Renaming in Business modeling layer will be easier than going to each subject areas and rename them in presentation.
    Hope this helps..
    Thanks,

  • Passing the database name as a PL/SQL procedure parameter

    How do I pass the name of the database as a parameter to a procedure?
    If dbs is the variable name to which I pass the database name as shown in the example,
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE Extract_gl_acct_Tbl(dbs varchar2)
    and I use dbs in the code as follows,
    SELECT ACCOUNT,
    SETID
    FROM SYSADM.PS_GL_ACCOUNT_TBL@dbs
    It gives me an error saying 'ORA-04054: database link DBS does not exist'.

    You will need to use dynamic SQL to handle this:
    create or replace ...
    is
    type rc is ref cursor;
    v_rc rc;
    begin
    open v_rc for 'select ... from sysadm.ps_gl_account_tbl@' || dbs;
    fetch v_rc into ... -- some variables
    -- if multiple rows, you'll need to do the fetch in a loop and exit when v_rc%notfound.
    close v_rc;
    end;

  • Passing multiple parameters between two report portlets on the same page

    Hi,
    I want to pass multiple parameters between two report portlets on the same page.
    I have been succussful passing a single parameter between two portlets. The
    following are the steps :
    (1) Created first report based on the query
    SELECT htf.anchor('http://192.168.0.84:7778/servlet/page?&_pageid=97&_dad=portal30&_schema=portal30&_mode=3&dept_code='||DEPTNO,DEPTNO) Department, ename FROM EMP;
    (2) Created 2nd report
    select * from EMP where DEPTNO = :dept_code
    (3) Added pl/sql code before display page on the 2nd report
    portal30.wwv_name_value.replace_value(
    l_arg_names, l_arg_values,
    p_reference_path||'.dept_code',portal30.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2(nvl(g
    et_value('dept_code'),10)));
    (4) Created a page and added these reports as portlets.
    Sofar it works fine for one parameter (deptno) . Now I want to add one more
    parameter say empno to my first report query and would like to pass both the
    parameters deptno and empno to the 2nd report. Please tell me how to pass multiple parameters ?
    Thanks
    Asim

    Hi,
    You will have to do the same thing
    The select will be like this
    SELECT htf.anchor('http://toolsweb.us.oracle.com:2000/servlet/page?_pageid=97&_dad=mb&_schema=mybugs&_mode=3&dept_code='||DEPTNO||'&empno='||empno,DEPTNO) Department,ename
    FROM EMP
    In the additional plsql code do the same for empno like this
    mybugs.wwv_name_value.replace_value(l_arg_names,l_arg_values, p_reference_path||'.dept_code',mybugs.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2(nvl(get_value('dept_code'),10)));
    mybugs.wwv_name_value.replace_value(l_arg_names,l_arg_values, p_reference_path||'.empno',mybugs.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2(get_value('empno')));

  • A condition to avoid displaying a product with the same Product Name in a report

    hello,
     Is there a condition to avoid displaying contents of two similar product names in a subreport?
     here is the scenario:
    Need to display Parent information in a separate List - Good
    child Product information in Sub-report,
    I'm passing both ProductID and ParentName parameters into Sub-Report to display the contents of the sub-report. If there are no similar Parent name, the sub-report works fine. But if there are similar ParentName, my sub-report
    starts listing all Products from the parent name.
      example
        Parent Product 1 ->  
                        Sulphate
                        Product_ID -> xx345
                        child Product1 ->  SulPhur (details...)  in a SubReport
      Parent Product 2 ->
                       Sulphate
                          Product_ID -> xx3342
                          Child Product1 -> Sulphuric Acid (details...) in  a SubReport

    Hi xitum,
    Per my understanding that both the subreport and the main report contains the field "ProductID" and "ProductName", and some of the ProductID will map the same ProductName which will display some duplicate subreport in the list like below,
    right?
    I have used some sample data as below and you can see when the different ProductID have the same values of "ProductName" and "Amount" and some other field value, it will display all the duplicate information
    in the subreport when add the main report in a list:
    ProductID   ProductName  Amount:
        1               ZXITest         220
        2               ZXITest         220
        3               ZXITest2       100
        4               ZXITest3       200
    If this is the case, please reference to the similar case in below thread which include details steps about how to do the deduplicate:

    If I have some misunderstanding, please try to provide some snapshot of the unexpect result you have got and more details information about the expect result you want.

  • Passing parameters from portlet reports to portlet forms

    Hi,
    I'm tring to pass parameters between a Report displayed as a portlet in a page ( page 1) and a form displayed in other page ( page 2).
    The problem is i can't do this.
    I only can pass parameters from a report ( running as normal or in a portlet displayed in a page) to a form running "normal" by using application links. Can i do this between a report that show's me every employees of scott.emp table. Then when i click on each employee, it open's me another page with the portlet form of the specified employee.
    I'm not sure i made myself clear. Please send me some feedback.

    I have the same problem. Please let me know if this could be done.

    Hi
    According to your description, since this is SQL Server forum, as Olaf Helper’s post, could you get the correct result if you execute the following query in SQL Server Manager Studio (SSMS)?
    select UserName from aspnet_Users where UserId in(select FreindId from myFreinds where UserId in(select UserId from aspnet_Users where UserName = '<your typed name>'))
    If you cannot get the correct result in SSMS, I recommend to check the Transact-SQL statement. Apart from the error message, we also need to know the table structure, data, join relationships between tables for further analysis.
    However if there is no problem in SQL Server query, it will be an issue that regards ASP.NET and website deployment. I suggest you to post the question in the ASP.NET forums at
    http://forums.asp.net/ . It is appropriate and more experts will assist you.
    In addition, there is detail about listbox control in asp.net. You can review the following links:

  • Pass column-name as a parameter to reports

    Hello,
    the code below calls a report. But now I want to sort the rows in the report. For example I have a text-item in my form-modul. If I type a column-name and press the button then the rows should be sorted in the report. Is it possible tp pass column-names as parameter to reports?
    DECLARE
    repid REPORT_OBJECT;
    v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
    rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
    BEGIN
    repid := find_report_object('STATIONSTOPOLOGIE');
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,RUNTIME);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'html');
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,'rep_oracle-dev');
    -- SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=no pdeptno='||:dept.deptno);
    v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
    rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);
    WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED')
    LOOP
    rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
    END LOOP;
    IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
    WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://oracle-dev:8888/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||
    substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=rep_oracle-dev','_blank');
    ELSE
    message('Error when running report');
    END IF;
    END;

    Hi,
    the work has been done in reports. You can use a lexical parameter in reports to add a condition for sorting to the query like:
    select .. from .. where ... &p_order.
    Then add another parameter to the report (for example p_param). Fill p_param via your interface in forms (SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER, ....) with the column name. Then build a report trigger like:
    if :p_param is null
    then
    :p_order:= null;
    else
    :p_order:= 'order by '||:p_param;
    end if;
    But have a look, that p_param can only get correct values.

  • Passing Parameters to a report by only knowing the rdf name fo the report

    Hi all,
    My requirement is that i konw the rdf name of a report and i want to call that report through form but i dont know the parameters in that report. Is there any way to find the parameters or any other method by which i can identify and pass the parametes to the report.
    Thanks in advance

    You don't have the rdf-files? Then i don't know of any way to find that out from the report itself (i guess you only have the rep-files?). Do you have any other forms-modules which already call the report? If so, you could check the calls there.

Maybe you are looking for
