Passing Parameters from Forms to Discoverer

Hello Everybody,
Is there a way to pass parameters from Oracle Forms to discoverer 4??
I want to call Discoverer from a Form and pass parameters to a sheet.
Thanks

Hi,
I don't have 10g right now, so can't test it...
Isn't it possible to just put the params you won't show to your users 'behind' other objects on the param form?
Strange behaviour anyway, in 6i Reports does not seem to care wether the params are on the form or not.
Rgds,
Guido

Passing parameters from FORM to REPORT

Hello All,
How to pass parameters from a FORM to a REPORT in Oracle Application Server Portal.

Vamsi, Are u capturing the imputs for these parameters in the form??
If u are capturing them in the form, then u need to add them to a parameter list (TEXT_PARAMETER) and while calling the report u can send it as a parameter in the RUN_PRODUCT call.
Pls check the syntax for adding parameters and calling report from form in the form builder help.

Passing parameters from Forms to Reports - Unhandled exception error

Hi there,
I am passing parammeters to my Reports through Forms. I am using the built-in RUN_REPORT_OBJECT to invoke and run my report.
DECLARE
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
BEGIN
repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('MY_REPORT');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid, REPORT_OTHER,
'p1='| |to_char(:block.p1_field)| |
' p2='| |to_char(:block.p2_field)| |
' p3='| |to_char(:block.p3_field)| |
' paramfrom=no');
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
EXIT_FORM;
END;
In one of my reports, after the report was invoked on the previewer window and I closed it, an unhandled exception error message appears.
Are there any restrictions on the length of REPORT_OTHER parameters/value, as in this form, there are quite a number of parameters set to passed into the reports?
I did not encounter this problem when running the report using the default REPORTS PARAMETER FORM to pass in the parameter. It is only when I pass in through FORMS using SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY, then the error appears.
I did not encounter this error with other reports which have little parameters.

Hon Koat

Pang,
Not sure it this will make the problem go away, but you could try to send the parameters in a parameter list, instead of setting the REPORT_OTHER values.
The syntax is the same you use to pass parameter list from one form to another:
declare
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
v_list paramlist;
c_listname constant varchar2(30) := 'my_list';
begin
repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('MY_REPORT');
v_list := get_parameter_list(c_listname);
if not id_null(v_list) then
destroy_parameter_list(v_list);
end if;
v_list := create_parameter_list(c_listname);
add_parameter(v_list, 'P1', text_parameter, to_char(:block.p1_field));
add_parameter(v_list, 'P2', text_parameter, to_char(:block.p2_field));
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid, v_list);
end;Hope this solves your problem,
Pedro

How to pass parameters from Forms to Reports

dear all,
i'm running a report from a form using run_product(), now i want
to pass a parameter from a form to report, say i want to display
all the employees of deptno=10, so what parameter should i give
in run_product() and what modifications should i make in the
report???
thanks and regards
Tariq.

Yeah,
You can pass parameters to from form to report using
Parameter list. E.g. You want to display all employees of Dept
10.
1. Create report with one user paramter say p_dept
2. Now Using Parameter list and Run Product you can call report,
see following procedure.
/* This Procedure passes department number as a paramter to
Report and displays Report.
Author - Mr. Adinath R. Kamode
Parameter - Deptname (p_dept)
PROCEDURE CALL_REPORT (V_DEPT IN NUMBER)
          V_PLIST          PARAMLIST;               -
- Parameter List and Name
          V_PLISTNAME           VARCHAR2
(30) := 'RPTLIST';
BEGIN
-- Check existance of Parameter List
          V_PLIST := GET_PARAMETER_LIST(V_PLISTNAME);
          IF ID_NULL (V_PLIST) THEN
               V_PLIST := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST
(V_PLISTNAME);
               IF ID_NULL (V_PLIST) THEN
                         MESSAGE('Error in
creating parameter list.');
                         MESSAGE('.');
                         RAISE
FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE;
               END IF;
-- Add parameter data , name must be same as in Report
     ADD_PARAMETER(V_PLIST,'P_DEPT',TEXT_PARAMETER,TO_CHAR
(V_DEPT));
-- Don't display parameter Form
     ADD_PARAMETER(V_PLIST,'PARAMFORM',TEXT_PARAMETER,'NO');
RUN_PRODUCT
(REPORTS,'DEPT.RDF',ASYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,V_PLIST,NULL)
ELSE
          DESTROY_PARAMETER_LIST(V_PLIST);
END IF;
END;

END;
Report does not run
now what i have found while rnd that
when i pass a lot of userdefined argument
it gives error.
and if passed one,two,three userdefined argument than it works.
in this example only
when i passed
inv='10016'
dt='06-09-2003'
inv_no='010016'
comp_code='01'
vc_name='PRODIMPEX'
with these reports run fines but
when i increase name data with one caharacter also it gives error
say
vc_name='PRODIMPEXR'
report does not run.
vc_name in report has character type with length 100
but a lot of argument is to be passed more.
I have also checked variable length. its fine
i think there would be some setting in some report system file having the length of parameters
which can be passed.
please help me if u know this.
thanks in advance

Hi,
this sounds familiar. Didn't you post exactly the same question a couple of weeks ago ? Don't remember what I replied to you, possibly to use varchar2 instead of character and give it a try. If this doesn't work, I remember that there is a way to use serverside command files for common parameters that needs to be passed. At least I can not find any bug filed against this. If the behavior doesn't change to teh better I therefore suggest to talk to customer support and file a bug.

Passing Parameters from Forms to Reports

I created a report and a form. Create a param list. I'm trying to pass the parameters to the report when I'm doing run_product. The report comes up with the parameter screen.
My problem is, as I am passing all the values what I need from the form, my report query should automatically query against these parameters and bring me the result.
For example form is passing dept 49. My report should not display a parameter form asking me to type the dept number. It should take dept 49 in it's where clause for the query and return the result set.
Can any one give me some suggestions ASAP. Very urgent.
Thanks in advance.

ugandhar,
please start looking at Run_Report_Object as using Run_Product to run Reports is desupported in Forms9i

Passing parameters from forms9i to reports9i

I am using forms - 9.0.2.9.0 and reports - 9.0.2.0.3.
I am trying to pass parameters from forms 9i to reports 9i. When I use set_report_object_property(rep_id, report_other, values) I am getting an error. (FRM-41214).
I have to send a lot of parameter values.
Does anyone know the best method to achieve this?
Thanks

Hello,
There are 2 ways to pass user-defined parameters from Forms 9i to Reports 9i.
1. Using the SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(<report_id>, REPORT_OTHER, 'concatenated_param_values').
2. Using Forms parameter lists in the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT call. This method is useful when passing a large number of parameters to Reports.
Please take a look at the Forms-Reports 9i Integration document on OTN at http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms/pdf/frm9isrw9i.pdf for a detailed explanation of these techniques. The usage of Forms parameter lists is covered under Appendix B.
Thanks,

Passing parameters from one form to another

Hi,
I'm trying to pass parameters from 1 form to another. I would be able to call the form, but the parameters are not passed to the calling form. I do not know what's the problem. Basically, the 2nd form shows up with blank values in all the fields. Below is my code. Anybody expert in this, pl. help.
By the way my 1st form is based on PROCEDURE.
declare
s_requestor           number(10);
s_customer_impact      varchar2(4000);
s_creation_date      date;
l_url                varchar2(4000);
blk               varchar2(10) := 'DEFAULT';
begin
p_session.set_value(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_P_REQUESTOR',
p_value => 88888);
s_requestor := p_session.get_value_as_number
(p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_P_REQUESTOR');
s_customer_impact := p_session.get_value_as_varchar2
(p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_P_CUSTOMER_IMPACT');
s_creation_date := p_session.get_value_as_date
(p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_P_CREATION_DATE');
l_url:=('/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link?
p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=1794837934&
p_arg_names=_show_header&p_arg_values=YES&
p_arg_names=REQUESTOR&p_arg_values='||s_requestor||'&
p_arg_names=CREATION_DATE&p_arg_values='||s_creation_date||'&
p_arg_names=CUSTOMER_IMPACT&p_arg_values='||s_customer_impact);
PORTAL.wwa_app_module.set_target(l_url);
end;

the way to call one form from another and pass values for parameters from the procedure is like this:
PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link (
p_arg_names => PORTAL.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2('_moduleid:_show_header:REQUESTOR:CREATION_DATE'),
p_arg_values => PORTAL.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2('1191314879:YES:'||s_requestor||':'||s_creation_date));
and so on.
Hope it works for you

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.
Pedro

I have the same problem. Please let me know if this could be done.
In particular my form is a type of "Form on Table/View."
Thanks

Passing parameters between form portlets on two different pages ...

Here is a brief summary of our problem.
We have one master form and a detail form which are published as portlets and placed in two different pages.
Now i want to pass parameters from master form portlet resides on one page to detail form portlet resides on another page.
Say for example, when i invoke master form (created based on demo DEPT table), enter values on fields then invoke another page
on which the second form portlet (say form based on EMP demo table) resides. Now i want to pass deptno to second form and
get displayed in deptno field of second form.
I was looking at the following posting, but how to do this when forms are published as portlets and placed on two different pages ?
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/message.jsp?id=997683
Customer actually want to pass a parameter from master form to 5 detail form portlets resides on different pages.
This is bit urgent as it is the only problem stopping the customer go live.
Thanks in advance.

Please refer to post Re: session state security
It tells you how to populate a form portlet in a page by clicking on a link in a report portlet.
You can use the wwsto_api_session objects to store data submitted by the master and let the detail form pick it up and proceed with the query.

Automatically Pass Parameters From Crystal To SAP B1

So, I've searched extensively, and haven't been able to find an answer to my unique issue.
This question pertains to linking a Crystal Report by parameter values to the OWOR table in SAP B1, and automatically passing those parameter values from the active record in SAP. Several other tables are used in sql joins, but the report is generated from an OWOR production order. I should start by stating that the report works great when manually populating the parameter fields when SAP calls for them.
Overview:
I've written a report in Crystal that contains several sub reports, some of which are looking to the DocEntry field as the parameter (DocKey@) and others that do not look to the DocEntry field at all - but rather use another field on the form to pull up information that spans more than just that one production order. I've chosen to upload as a layout in SAP (as that is all I've worked with up to this point, and it seems it needs to be to automate from a production order); but as I continue to research, it appears DocKey@ is mandatory when uploading as a layout, and in order to view the report from the actively selected production order, it must be a layout. Does that mean the parameter is required in all sub reports? Is it required in any sub report?
I have two main issues that I need to hurdle for this report to work how I would like it to:
1. Three of the eight Commands (one main command and seven sub-report commands) use the DocKey@ as the parameter to pass from SAP back to Crystal. The main report command, as well as four of the sub reports/commands are looking to another field in the OWOR record - which happens to be a re-seller defined field (UDF). For all intensive purposes, let's call this field BatchID. I'm assuming the sub report commands run in succession, one after the next. The reason I need to use BatchID as the parameter to pull from the record, rather than DocEntry, is there are other records that contain the same BatchID, and I want all of the info pertaining to that BatchID to populate on the report.
Q1: The first command containing DocKey@ is automatically populated by SAP, and the user does not have to key that one in. However, the next two DocKey@ parameters do not automatically populate, and the user is asked for those values. How can I fix this?
Q2: How can I automate the passing of BatchID so the user does not have to fill it in 5 times when they wish to preview the report(layout)? Can I link ObjectID@ to any field in OWOR? Is there any other way like creating a stored procedure or something , to automate the passing of that variable from the SAP active record to the crystal report - so the user doesn't have to key it in several times just to pull up the report?
Thank you so much for even reading, let alone helping me with this issue!!
Cheers,
Nick

Passing parameters from dynpro to a web dynpro

Hi all,
we have following scenario: a user starts a web dynpro, fills in the week and push a button. By this, an interactive form is created, with the users personal ID and the week, so the user can maintain his worked times.
Now our problem is that we want to go into that interactive form skipping the web dynpro, i.e. we don't know how to pass parameters from a dynpro to a web dynpro.
Do someone have a clue how we can do that? I would highly appreciate any help.
Many thanks in advance
