Passing parameter to an xsl template from BI Publishe

Hi,
I have a requirement where I need to pass a parameter directly from BI Publisher to the xsl template.
XML files are used as Datassource here. The requirement is that the user needs to pass on a value that is not present in this XML file for eg ( a word like "
"Google" or "Yahoo" or "BIP" and I need to take that value and construct an url out of it. The url would be "www.google.com" or "www.yahoo.com" or "www.BIP.com".
The parameter passed would in no way be used to filter out any data coming from the xml files, and is used only for building this url.
I have used parameters to filter out data for report template where the datasource is Sql. The parameter passed would be used to filter out data . I donot know how we can pass a parameter value without filtering out the result set, but use it in the report.
Basically I need my BI Publisher report to have 2 datasource,
1) the xml data file and the template uploaded would use this to generate the report, and
2) the value passed by the user declared as parameter in BI Publisher which would be used to generate the url.
Please let me know if this is possible
Regards
Sujith

Use data template, Check datatemplate, how to pass parameter. - search this forum, i have answered it many times.
create parameter and say , include parameter as true. it will be added to the xml in the top.
You dont have to use it necessarily in the sql query.
The parameter will there in the xml, and you can use in any template type.

How do I pass parameter to different portlet regions from another page?

How do I pass parameter to different portlet regions from
another page?
I have a page that with two regions. Each region has a report
that uses the same information to generate its report.
Individually running the reports, I can use p_arg_names and
p_arg_values to get what I want. However, when I run the page
that has both portlets, my .show is gone and I cannot get it to
use the p_arg_names, etc. Do you have any idea how to overcome
this? Thanks for any help.

Passing parameter to the i18n text from xml view in fiori app

Hi,
Could somebody let me know how to pass parameter to get the i18n text inside xml view of a Fiori app.
For e.g. inside my i18n properties file i have a entry like:
PEC_ISSUE={0}issues of total{1}
inside xml i use it like {i18n>PEC_ISSUE}
but now how do i pass those 2 parameters to this ??
i know in javascript it works with , (comma) but does not work in xml. Any help...
Thanks,
Ashish

Hi Michele,
I found it. Below is the example from my coding.
<Text text="{parts: [{path: 'i18n>PEC_to'}, {path: 'promoprocsteps>RetailPromotionSalesFromDate_E'},
 {path:'promoprocsteps>RetailPromotionSalesToDate_E'}],
 formatter: 'retail.promn.promotioncockpit.utils.Formatter.formatDatesString'}" />
So you have to create a formatter and pass all the strings to the formatter and then do it inside JS.
In JS you do it in this way:
i18n.getText(i18String, [newString, string2]);
i hope this helps.
Regards,
Ashish

Problem passing parameter to crystal report subreport from *.aspx page

Background:
I am developing a .NET web application using Visual Studio 2005. The code behind is in VB.net. One of my asp.net pages calls a report, which is invoked when the user clicks a Print button. I have developed this report using the Crystal Reports software that is bundled with Visual Studio 2005. I am passing one parameter from the asp.net page (utilizing the VB.net code-behind on the Print button) to the Crystal report. The report consists of a main report and 5 subreports. Both the main report and the subreports use the same parameter. Both the main report and the subreports are bound to stored procedures, each of which require a parameter.
Problem:
For some reason, the parameter is not being passed from the asp.net page to the report. I am receiving the following error: "CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ParameterField.CurrentValueException: Missing Parameter Values." However, when I remove the subreports, the parameter gets passed, and the report is invoked with no problem.
I have read in other forums that there may be an issue with the Crystal Reports software that is causing this problem. I have downloaded and run the suggested hotfix, but the problem remains unresolved. I have tried changing the linking of my main report to the subreport, but that doesn't help either. It is possible that I am doing something wrong with the linking, as this is the first time I have developed a report with Crystal Reports. I need a workaround or definitive solution. Below is the aspx code used to call the report:

I've now gotten past the "missing parameter values" error, and the report renders fine in the report viewer. However, I've encounted another problem.

Passing parameter values to powershell function from batch file

Hello ,
I haven't used powershell for a while and getting back to using it. I have a function and I want to figure out how to pass the parameter values to the function through batch file.
function Check-FileExists($datafile)
write-host "InputFileName : $datafile"
$datafileExists = Test-Path $datafile
if ($datafileExists)
return 0
else
return -100
<#
$datafile = "C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PreIDFiles\SampleInputFile_011.txt"
$returncode = Check-FileExists -datafile $datafile
Write-Host "ReturnCode : $returncode"
$datafile = "C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PreIDFiles\SampleInputFile_01.txt"
$returncode = Check-FileExists -datafile $datafile
Write-Host "ReturnCode : $returncode"
#>
The above code seems to be work when I call it. But when I try to call that script and try to pass the parameter values, I am doing something wrong but can't figure out what.
powershell.exe -command " &{"C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PowerShell\BulkLoad_Functions.ps1" $returncode = Check-FileExists -datafile "C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PreIDFiles\SampleInputFile_01.txt"}"
Write-Host "ReturnCode : $returncode"
$file = "C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PreIDFiles\SampleInputFile_01.txt"
powershell.exe -file "C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PowerShell\BulkLoad_Functions.ps1" $returncode = Check-FileExists -datafile $datafile
Somehow the I can't get the datafile parameter value being passed to the function. Your help would be much appreciated.

I am not sure about calling a function in a script like how you want to. Also I see you are setting the values of the parameters, this is not needed unless you want default values if nothing is passed. The values for the parameters will be passed via the
batch file. So for me the easiest way is as indicated.
param
[string]$DataFile
function Check-FileExists($datafile)
write-host "InputFileName : $datafile"
$datafileExists = Test-Path $datafile
if ($datafileExists)
return 0
else
return -100
Write-Host "Return Code: $(Check-FileExists $DataFile)"
Then you create a batch file that has
start powershell.exe
-ExecutionPolicy
RemoteSigned -Command
"& {<PathToScript>\MyScript.ps1 -DataFile 'C:\Dev\eMetric\PreIDWork\PreIDFiles\SampleInputFile.txt'}"
Double click the batch file, and it should open a powershell console, load your script and pass it the path specified, which then the script runs it and gives you your output

Pass parameter to report paramater form from a form

I defined parameter in a form. I am trying to pass the parameters to a report's parameter form. Is there any way to accomplish this?
Thank you!

Maybe this example will help. This can be added in a when button pressed event to run the report.
DECLARE
pl_id ParamList;
subheader varchar2(1000);
BEGIN
** Check to see if the 'tmpdata' parameter list exists.
pl_id := Get_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
** If it does, then delete it before we create it again in
** case it contains parameters that are not useful for our
** purposes here.
IF NOT Id_Null(pl_id) THEN
Destroy_Parameter_List( pl_id );
END IF;
** Create the 'tmpdata' parameter list afresh.
pl_id := Create_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
** Add 1 data parameters to this parameter list
*/ -- subheader is a parameter created in Oracle Reports
subheader := :variable.txt_message_yes;
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'SUBTITLE',TEXT_PARAMETER,subheader );
**Pass a Parameter into PARAMFORM so that a parameter dialog will not appear
**for the parameters being passing in.
Add_Parameter(pl_id, 'PARAMFORM', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'NO');
** Run the report synchronously, passing the parameter list
*/ -- ABC is the report name
Run_Product(REPORTS, 'ABC', SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, pl_id, NULL);

Passing parameter to function on stage from symbol

I have a symbol on the stage: symbol1
Inside symbol1 I have an image: symbol1_image1
I have another symbol on the stage: symbol2
Inside symbol2 I have an image: symbol2_image2
in composition.ready I have an action on the mouseout for symbol1:
var theTarget = sym.getComposition().getStage().getSymbol('symbol2').$('symbol2_image2');
sym.getComposition().getStage().doMouseoutGS(theTarget);
In composition.ready i have the following function defined
sym.doMouseout = function (colorTile){
sym.$(colorTile.show());
I cannot get this to work and I am not understanding why.
If I do an alert on the mouseout function for
alert($(colorTile).attr("id"));
I get the correct referenc to the element I want to show but it does not actually happen

Hi Marlene,
As I already mentionned in a preceding reply in another of your threads, you should use the event object e that gives you access to the target (e.target), without the need to explicitly build a theTarget variable.
For example, say you want to factorize in a symbol (stage) function the rollover behavior shared by a certain number of buttons :
• btn.mouseover
sym.getComposition().getStage().globalFunction( e);
• document.compositionReady
sym.globalFunction = function( eBtn)
console.log( eBtn.target.getAttribute(“id“));
Then, using Firebug or Chrome dev. tools, you'll see in the console the id of each of the buttons you hover over.

Using Go URL to Pass parameter between dashboard

Hi All,
I am trying to pass parameter using GO URL functionality from one dashboard analysis field to another dashboard.
The navigation is working properly but the parameter is not getting passed, I am not sure why.
The Called dashboard has a analysis which has IS PROMPTED filter attached to it for the passing filter. I tried various ways to make this work
Option 1
In the calling analysis, I am using a Narrative View and inside I have used the below code.
<a href="saw.dll?Go&Path=/shared/MI/_portal/Client-MI&Page=Supplier%20Detail%20Tab&Action=Navigate&P0=1&P1=eq&P2=Dim%20Supplier.Supplier%20Name%20Current&P3=1+%22STR%20LTD%22"> @2[br/]
This one navigate but filtering is not happening
Option 2 (My first preference will be this option)
Also I tried to provide custom Data Format under the column Properties
[html]""@"
This ends up giving error
Type mismatch of catalog object /shared/MI/_portal/Client-MI/Supplier Detail Tab -- expected , got .
Error Details
Error Codes: UVWDR6UA
Also, both the tabs (Called and Calling are under the same Dashboard)
Can anyone please let me know, were I am making mistake. I tried refereeing Oracle documentation but still no result.
Thanks

Looks like you've got it almost right - just an extra unneeded "
<a href="two.jsp"?ant=<%= ant %>"><%=antName%></a>
which should render on the page as something like
My Ant Task
When you click the link, it should pass that parameter, and you can get it via request.getParameter().

Passing Values to a BW Template through Java - Dynpage

Hello All!
-I have one Java-Dynpage Application. I have created an
Iview from that PAR file.
-This Dynpage accepts some input from user(say his employee number) and displays some data from SQL server.
-Now I want that when the user enters the input and clicks submit button, these values should be passed to a BW template to execute the BW report based on this input.
-In other words, i want to display another Iview which will display a BW report based on the values passed from my Dynpage.
Is it possible to pass the values to a BW template from java?
If yes, how do i do it?
Any suggestions are welcome....

You can have two Iviews:
1.Your existing Java Iview
2. Standard BW Report as an Iview.
when submit button is hit on Iview1. Use EPCF to pass values to Iview2.Then build your new bw url based on the values you get from iview1 thru EPCF.
Search for EPCF on sdn.
So , yes it is possible to pass values to a BW template from Dynpage or JSP using EPCF.
regards,
P.

Passing Parameter to XSL document (in XDK forPL/SQL)

Here i' trying to pass parameters to my XSL document.But the value is not getting populated in the final document, can anyone help me on this.,.?
// This is how i 'm passing parameter value to the XSL
xslprocessor.setParam (styles,'p_batch_name','batch1');
// Applyting stylesheet(xsl) with XMLdoc and storing it in a DOM node
docn := xmldom.makeNode(xslprocessor.processXSL(engine,styles,doc));
My XSL is like this
<INSERT xsl:version="1.0" xmlns:xsl ="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:param name="p_batch_name"/>
<ROWSET table="abc">
<xsl:for-each select="rowset/row">
<ROW>
<batch_name>"{$p_batch_name}"</batch_name>
</ROW>
<xsl:for-each>
</ROWSET>
<INSERT>
But in the final document, the value (batch1) is not getting
populated. it is coming as null .
Can anyone help me ...
null

This does not work because of the following two things:
[list=1]
[*]The value of a parameter is interpreted as an XPath expression. Passing a value of batch1 will be interpreted as the XPath expression batch1 that will try to match any <batch1> child elements of the root of the source document. You need to include the value in quotes to have it be interpreted as a literal string:xslprocessor.setParam (styles,'p_batch_name','"batch1"');[*] The setParam method can only set the value of "top-level" stylesheet parameters. In your stylesheet, you've illegally used <xsl:param> inside a template. You need to switch from the "simple form" of a stylesheet to the "normal form" of the stylesheet to use a top-level parameter. So instead of:<INSERT>
</INSERT>
[code]
you need instead:
[code]
<xsl:stylesheet>
<xsl:template match="/">
<INSERT>
</INSERT>
</xsl:insert>
</xsl:stylesheet>[list]

Passing parameter for the bean function that deletes record from DB

I need to delete some record from the DB without updating the reset of the user screen.
I use commandButton with immediate attribute as true, because validation should be skipped.
So, I can't rely on backing bean values being updated, but need to pass a param to the function that does the delete (deleteTemplate) function below.
The value of this param is selected value in another comboBox called "template".
Code below is not parsing. Could you advise how to do it?
<a4j:commandButton id="deleteTemplate" value="Delete"
 action="#{qtBeanParam.deleteTemplate(param['piPerformanceReturnsForm:template'])}" immediate="true" reRender="template,templateList,templateOwner,templateOwnerList"
 styleClass="blue-button">
 </a4j:commandButton>Error Parsing: #{qtBeanParam.deleteTemplate(param['piPerformanceReturnsForm:template'])}

Thank you for your reply.
Could I pass the value that is entered in some other field as a "parameter" though?
<f:param name="anyName" value="parameter" />
For example the value from the following comboBox?
<rich:comboBox id="template" width="250" value="#{qtBeanParam.templateName}" enableManualInput="true"
 converter="#{templateConverter}" valueChangeListener="#{qtBeanParam.changeTemplate}" >
 <a4j:support event="onselect" reRender="template,templateList" ajaxSingle="true" />
 <a4j:support event="onchange" reRender="template,templateList" ajaxSingle="true" />
 <f:selectItems id="templateList" value="#{qtBeanParam.templateList}" />

How to call a rtf template from another rtf template by passing a value

Hi Gurus,
Its about calling a rtf template from another rtf template by passing a value.
My requirement is like:
I got a quote report from Siebel, based on the product PartNumber I need to pull product description or literature from another database database.
My approach is something like; get a partnumber from quote report pass it to another rtf template which uses the partnumber and get the data from table using DataSource. When user pull a quote report from siebel this new rtf template should attach to the quote at the end.

How to call a rtf template from another rtf template by passing a value try in main template create hyperlink of url with parameters for another template
http://bipconsulting.blogspot.ru/2010/02/drill-down-to-detail-or-another-report.html
When user pull a quote report from siebel this new rtf template should attach to the quote at the end.it'll be only another report
IMHO you can not attach it to main. it'll be second independent report
you can try subtemplate but it's not about rtf from rtf by click
it's about call automatically rtf subtemplate from main rtf based on some conditions
for example, main template contain some data and if some condition is true then call subtemplate and place it instead of its condition

Would you know if there's a way to mimic Deski
document from BOXI server(CMS) to local machine, pass parameter, execute and
save in a mutiple report format then store in a local drive or network
drive? Most examples and tutorials in BO XI R2 I've seen are scheduling while drilling report is for web intelligence only and not desktop intelligence. Please let me know your ideas. I would really appreciate your help. Thanks.

Hi Ted,
Thanks for the reply.The file is not available in the server. Though, I checked CMS and I found an instance in history tab and the status is failed with error below.
Error Message:
A variable prevented the data provider Query 1 with BANRRD30 from being refreshed. (DMA0008).When I checked my codes, I found out that the object Im using is for web intelligence data provider. However, I cannot find any documentation and example for passing parameter values in desktop intelligence data provider. Any idea on this? You think this is not suported by Report Engine SDK?Thanks.
