Pls. identify some seeded views used as Existing Data Source in DBI Reports

Hi!
Can someone please identify some seeded views used as Existing Data Source in DBI Reports. I only need some idea how they are defined.
Thanks.

You can find the list of seeded views in eTRM website -- http://etrm.oracle.com/pls/etrm
Are there seeded tables/views of DBI dimension objects in Oracle EBS?

Bursting using a Concatenated Data Source

Greetings,
I am trying to burst a report using a concatenated data source. I have a bursting SQL query set up that works fine, but I am unsure how to handle the "Split By" option. I have a data model that pulls data from multiple queries, like this:
DETAILS_A
select * from table_a
where payee_id in (:p_payee_id)
DETAILS_B
select * from table_b
where payee_id in (:p_payee_id)
So, if I choose to "Split By" Details_A_Row/Payee_ID, then the data from Details_A is split appropriately, but the reports I generate don't split the information from Details_B properly. I end up with reports where one payee has information for another payee from the Details_B data source. How can I specify that the report should also split/filter the info from Details_B?
To put it another way, what I'd really like to do is go through a list of parameters (payee IDs in this example) and generate a report for each parameter. Is Bursting the most effective way to do this?
From searching the forums, it seems like I might be able to accomplish this using Data Templates as my Data Model instead of SQL Queries. Am I on the right track with that? If so, you guys have any helpful links on how to create Data Templates?
I am using BI Publisher version 10.1.3.4
Any help is appreciated!

Unable to view enhanced field in Data Source

Hi All,
We recently upgraded our R/3 system from 4.7 to ECC 6.0. Now when we are enhancing the data source, the field is visible in the Extract Structure. But we are unable to view it in the data source. We checked out in RSA2 the enhanced field attribute is specified as 'Field in OLTP and BW Hidden by SAP'. We have written code to modifiy the ROOSFIELD table to make the enahnced field visible. But this is the problem with all the data sources. Whenever, we have to enahnce, we have to go thru this process to make the enhanced field visible.
Is it like that we missied out any patch in ECC 6.0 while upgrade? If any person faced similar situation, please help us.

Hi Ravi,
I think you are missing a step here. As soon as you enhance your datasource with new fields, by default, those 2 check boxes are checked ( Hidden and Field in User exit only). You go to RSA6, edit your datasource and here, you can uncheck these added fields so that you can use them. You do not need to write any code to change the fields settings in ROOSFIELD table. Do the step I mentioned above after enhancing and you should be good. Hope it helps.
Thanks and Regards

Use XML as data input for Crystal Report for Eclipse

Hi,
I am completely new to crystal report and please kindly forgive me if I ask some stupid questions.
Actually, I have searched the forum for the topic and found some related threads, but I still want to
have some responses from crystal report experts on this issue.
Our developer tool is IBM RAD 7.0 and it has crystal reports tools installed in it. I want to use
crystal report to solve one of our business solutions. I have the following questions about the
feasbility of this solution:
(1). I need to specify data at runtime during report generation. I think using fixed data source
     (for example, SQL query or Stored Procedure) may not fit our needs. I think if crystal report
     can accept XML as input to generate reports at runtime, then it will be perfect. Can CR
     use XML as data source as input?
(2). Actually, one of our business requirements is to generate a letter. Can CR do a report
      layout such that a letter format can be achieved? If yes, would you let me know the
      report layout name?
(3). We need to export the report into PDF format, I know CR can do PDF output. But can
      CR be controlled to export this into bytes stream? Or the PDF must be saved into a
      physical file?
(4) If I need to learn more about CR, which book will you recommend?
Thanks in advance for your advice,
Raymond

Thanks for the help Ted
Works like a charm now.
Or atleast my very very simple XML report works.
Now I just need to play around and see what I can do and what I cant.
I just want to make sure I understand how this works.
1) I start of with a XML file (or URL or other data source as explained in your BLOG)
2) I then have to create blank report which will have its data source set to my XML file.
    This report (rpt file) will always have its data source set to the original XML location
Can this be dynamically changed, or does a new rpt file need to be created each time
    (or atleast I will have to re-run "CreateXMLInlineSchemaReport" from your BLOG)
3) I can now use this rpt file as I would any other rpt file but its data source will be the original XML file
   - If I update or change the XML file, the report will dynamically reflect these changes.
4) To change the data source, I need to recreate a new rpt file as per point 2. Which will now be blank.
5) Filtering.... if I want to filter the XML data do I use normal parameters. If I want to filter the data before
    I pull it do I need to change anything. In otherwords if I have a XML file with 1000 records, but I only want say
5 of them, how do I only pull those 5 without first pulling the whole 1000 records. Hope that makes sense.
As I said I am very new to this so some things still fly over my head, but I do play around abit so hopefully
will find what I am looking for.
Cheers
Darren
PS any other links to info on creating and running reports of XML data sources would be greatly appriciated

Using Excel as data source

Hi,
i have created a crystal report that uses Excel as data source. Reason i used excel is for easy updating of data by non IT users. The report runs perfectly on my computer, but when i upload it to Infoview, there is error when i run the report from Infoview:
"The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect."
"Unable to retrieve Object.
The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect."
May i know what causes the error? There is no user id/password to access the excel file.
I have also tried saving the excel in the same server as the crystal report server, but i still face the same error.
Pls help!
Thanks

You would have created a connection in your local system to access the XLS data
You should be creating a similar connection in the server as well and then update the rpt file with the connection details in CMS
Thanks,
Ganesh

Using a SQL data source and XML data source in the same template

I am trying to develop a template for the Request for Quote report generated in Apps 11.5.10. I have loaded the data from the XML output into the template, but I am missing one field - I need the org_id from the po_headers table. Is it possible to use a sql data source (i.e., "select org_id from po_headers_all where po_header_id = [insert header_id from xml data]...") in addition to the xml data source to populate the template at runtime? When you use the Insert > SQL functionality is it static at the time the template is created, or does it call to the database at runtime? I've looked through all the docs I could find, but this isn't clear.
Thanks for any help or suggestions you may have.
Rhonda

Hi Pablo
Thats a tough one ... if you go custom with a data template you will at least get support on the data template functionality ie you have a problem when you try and build one. You will not get support on the query inside the data template as you might have gotten with the Oracle Report, well you could at least log a bug against development for a bad query.
Eventually that Oracle Report will be converted by development anyway, theres an R12 project going on right now to switch the shipped OReports to data templates. AT this point you'll be fully supported again but:
1. You have to have R12 and
2. You'll need to wait for the patch
On reflection, if you are confident enough in the query then Oracle will support you on its implementation within a data template. Going forward you may be able to swap out your DT and out in the Oracle one without too much effort.

Using Web Service as Data source (Pluggable Data Source) in Oracle Reports

Anyone using Webservice as a pluggable data source in oracle 10g reports.(Report builder version:10.1.2.0.2)? We need to be able to use web service as one of the data source to create reports.Tried the following and ran into issues:
Imported the wspds.jar fle from oracle plugin exchage. When tried using it received the following error in oracle reports trace file.
04/26 22:27:22 java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: oracle.xml.parser.schema.XSDBuilder.build([Loracle/xml/parser/v2/XMLDocument;Ljava/net/URL;)Ljava/lang/Object;
By troubleshooting issue found out that xmlparserv2.jar in 10g is newer than xmlparserv2.jar in 9i. wspds.jar is using xmlparserv2.jar in 9i as it was developed and tested for 9i only. Believe there is no newer wspds.jar file developed specifically for 10g?
Is there a better/standard solution to use webservice as data source in oracle 10g reports? Does later version of oracle reports supports webservice as a data source without any additional plugins? Any suggestion would be helpful.

Please provide support for the above request.
It appears that Oracle 10g reports doesn't support Web Service as pluggable data source. Is this option is available in Oracle 11g Reports or Oracle Discoverer Or OBIEE?

Adhoc Reporting using Data Sources instead of Report Model

Hi Gurus,
I'm working on SSRS 2008. I'm trying to create Adhoc Report using Report Builder 3.0. To select Data Source, both *.rsds and *.smdl are listed. I selected a Data Source which points to a SQL database. When I add New datasets, I'm able to add the fields and
it automatically detect relationships (Joins) using Primary Key and Foreign Key defined in the tables. I'm also able to edit the query. I ran the report and it ran successfully.
My question is I couldn't find any documentation regarding using Data Source for Adhoc Reporting. MS SQL documentation and forums insists that Report Model is required for Adhoc Reporting.
Please let me know if someone tried to create Adhoc Report using Data Source instead of Report Model. While I understand there are more benefits using Report Model (define entities/attributes, show/hide entity/attributes, organize entities/attributes etc.),
I just want to know if this is possible.
Are there any known limitation using this method?
Thanks In Advance!

Hi Ereswaran,
Yes, we can create ad hoc report using report using data source instead of Report Model. Ad hoc reports typically are used to answer a specific question at appoint in time, so consequently people don’t spend a lot of time arranging and formatting the data
in a precise way. Other report development tools are available in Reporting Services to support more sophisticated reporting requirements.
Using Report Builder, we can build a simple report that display data form a single data source as defined by a report model. This tool is most useful for business users who need access to information but lack the skills to write a SQL query. If we have full
experience of SQL query, of course we can use data source instead of Report Model.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
Regards,
Charlie Liao

SQL ENTERPRISE: The edition of Reporting Services that you are using requires that you use local SQL Server relational databases for report data sources and the report server database

The error below makes absolutely no sense! I'm using Enterprise Core...yet I'm being told I can't use remote data sources:
w3wp!library!8!03/05/2015-19:08:48:: i INFO: Catalog SQL Server Edition = EnterpriseCore

Services that you are using requires that you use local SQL Server relational databases for report data sources and the report server database." is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services.;
Really? This totally contradicts the documentation found here:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157285(v=sql.110).aspx
That article says remote connections are completely supported.
ARGH! Why does this have to be so difficult to setup?!?

Hi jeffoliver1000,
According to your description, you are using Enterprise Core edition and you are prompted that you can’t use remote data sources.
In your scenario, we neither ignore your point nor be doubt with what you say. But actually we have met the case before that even though the SQL Server engine is Enterprise but the reporting services is still standard. So I would recommend you to find the
actual edition of reporting services you are using. You can find Reporting Services starting SKU in the Reporting Service logs ( default location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\<instance name>\Reporting Services\LogFiles). For more information,
please refer to the similar thread below:

By the way, have you installed the other SQL Server edition before?

How to use an existing data model using Business Components in OEPE

I am a beginner in ADF. I am working on a project with an existing data model that uses Business Components (EO, VO and AM). I know that OEPE does not handle the creation of BC, so if I want to modify them, I will have to do that in JDev. That's fine.
OEPE can create pages with drag and drop like in JDev. In my eclipse ADF projects, I would like to use the existing BC, to be able to use the bindings with ADF Faces. So far I have nothing in the Data Controls tab.
How to import the BC into the Data Controls tab?
JDev 11.1.1.6
WLS 10.3.6
Eclipse Kepler

We currently don't support DataControls based on the ADF BC technology. We will consider such support if there is a strong interest in that use case.
Independent of the IDE's you use, there are ways to expose services based on ADF BC that can then be consumed by the view layer. A Google search will point you to some of the approaches.
HTH. Thanks for your interest in OEPE.

Table or view does not exist - Data Dictionary Import Wizard(Data Modeler)

In Data Modeler, Data Dictionary Import Wizard, I'm able to connect to database.But while going to the second stage (Select Schema/Database), I'm getting an error "ORA-00942: table or view does not exist".
I am able to select the table with select * from all_tables and I can open many tables as well.
Could anyone tell me, whether I'm missing any privilege, that causing this error.
Thanks in advance for you support.

Use View Object with Alternative Data Sources in View Link

In my case, I created a view object based on alternative data source (not with SQL query). I have setQuery(null) in the override create() function for this View Object. When I use this View Object at the destination end of the View Link, the setQuery(null) will raise Jbo-26016 exception (You cannot set customer query (calling setQuery()) on a view object if it is the detail view object in a master detail view link.) which does not allow me to do that. I looked Avrom's Framework for Database API-Based ADF BC, in which he override the DBTransaction and CallableStatement in order to intercept the default query clause set by the View Link. I'd like to see if there is any alternative ways to achieve my objective?

Just following up what I found so far. I'm trying to use customized View Object based on alternative data source at the destination end of View Link with ADF 10.1.3.
1. For the View Object at the destination end of View Link, I can not call setQuery() which will raise Jbo-26016 exception.
2. I can omit the setQuery(null) call in my customized ViewObjectImpl, and as long as there is no SQL statement in the View Definition XML, it won't cause problem when calling the executeQueryForCollection() of the super class.
3. The override executeQueryForCollection() must call the super.executeQueryForCollection() in order to get appropriate result (I tried to skip the call and it does not give back any results)
4. The funny thing is, when I make getQuery() call in my customized ViewObjectImpl (I'm just trying to double check if the Query object is clean or not), the query object is set to "SELECT FROM" following the getQuery() call, and which causes the exceptions when I call super.exeuteQueryForCollection(). I found out later from the Javadoc API which is implemented in that way.
So I guess my case is resolved by not making specific call to setQuery(null).

SharePoint 2010 Report using a Shared Data Source Connection file (.rsds) is forcibly closed.

Hi -
When attempting to render a report (.rdl) in a SharePoint 2010 document library that has a
Connection Type specified as a Shared data source (the connection succeeds when tested in the SharedDataSource.aspx page), the following error message is displayed in the report:
The data source that I'm using passes the test when tested in isolation but when used in the report it yields to the error message above. Below are some of the details of the .rsds file:
For this particular Web Application, Kerberos has been enabled. I couldn't spot any traces in ULS nor in the Security Windows logs.
Any feedback on how to fix this issue is appreciated.
