Print empty report

Can I somehow print an empty report, and specify with a parameter how many times it should be repeated?
The report is a form with checkboxes, and sometimes we want the empty one for someone to fill in when out on the field. And since this form is a subreport, we cant print the entire report over again, but need the subreport to be repeated, let's say five times.
/Thank you!

Please re-post if this is still an issue or purchase a case and have a dedicated support engineer work with you directly

Do not print empty reports

Good afternoon,
My question is:
How i could avoid printing reports when the detail rows are empty ?
We have scheduled several CR XI and sometimes they have no data, so i would like to avoid these reports printed, just with the report header.. Have i any way of doing this.
Thks and appreciate any help-
Jose Marin

Good afternoon,
Yes Sastry, I have tried this before asking in the forum, this was the issue, if i have clicked the "Suppress printing if no records" why i am getting the Header when it is schedule?...
On the other hand if the report is executed (refreshed) i have nothing, which is perfect..
I am thinking this error could be due to the program used for scheduling it (Easy View) instead of Crystal Report XI.

Urgent: sometimes my report prints empty

Hi there,
We have developed an application in Oracle Forms & Reports with Oracle as Back-end. From the Forms, user makes a transaction and say print, it prints well. But when he fastly do the transactions and say print, some reports comes with data and some reports comes with out data (it prints empty). But when I check the database, the data is there for the transactons he made.
So, can any body tell me what wrong with my application.
Regards,
Aqueel.

SSRS 2008 R2 report prints empty spaces for html content till end of page

Hi
I need to display records containing long html content say each record of different size ranging from 5 lines to 3-5 pages.
Issue observed is:
When a record complete is printing say half the page and subsequent record is bigger then half a page, the subsequent record is printed on the next page rather than continue immediately after the previous record is completed.
Is their any property or any other solution to resolve the issue. Print on next page is not set.
Nikesh Shah

Hi Nikesh,
As per my understanding, I think the issue is caused by the blank space in the report body. In order to get rid of the blank space when print the report, please refer to the following steps:
Click on Report > Report Properties > Layout tab
Make a note of the values for Page width, Left margin, Right margin
Close and go back to the design surface
In the Properties window, select Body
Click the + symbol to expand the Size node
Make a note of the value for Width
Please check the Page Break settings on all your report items and make sure the Body Width + Left margin + Right margin less than or equal to Page width, just like the equalities below:
(Body Width + Left margin + Right margin) <= (Page width)
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.

Problem with empty report parameters when passed to PL/SQL function

Hi,
We have come across what appears to be a bug in the JRC. When passing a report parameter to a PL/SQL function as a parameter, empty parameters are changed before being sent to the function. More specifically, an empty string "" ends up as the value "(')" in the PL/SQL function parameter. In our report we print the report parameters on the first page so we know that the parameters are OK before being passed to the database.
The problem exists for version 12.2.203, 12.2.204 and 12.2.205 of the JRC.
We have identified a workaround, but it is not exactly elegant: Before executing the report we modify all empty parameters ("") to " " . In the PL/SQL function, we trim all parameters before using them.
We call the function using a command object with a sql syntax like this example:
select * from table (qa_batch_release.get_qa_br('{?p_report_id}','{?p_reg_set_number}','{?p_cr_number}','{?p_change_id_decode}','{?p_country_id}','{?p_mfg_item_no}','{?p_4_no}','{?p_5_no}','{?p_7_no}'))
The PL/SQL function is a table returning function.
Best regards, Thor

Hi Kishore,
using #COLUMN_VALUE# would probably not make much sense, because normally a report has multiple columns and not just the numeric column which you want to verify if it's negative. But APEX will fire the template condition for each column, because the report template is a column cell template.
What you can do to make it more generic is to use for example
#CHECK_AMOUNT#
in the template and provide a not displayed column in your SQL statement which contains your value which is named CHECK_AMOUNT. For example:
SELECT NAME
, BALANCE
, BALANCE AS CHECK_AMOUNT
FROM XXX;Because this CHECK_AMOUNT column would be a generic name, you can use this template in all your reports as long as you provide this column.
Thope that helps

Questions on Print Quote report

Hi,
I'm fairly new to Oracle Quoting and trying to get familiar with it. I have a few questions and would appreciate if anyone answers them
1) We have a requirement to customize the Print Quote report. I searched these forums and found that this report can be defined either as a XML Publisher report or an Oracle Reports report depending on a profile option. Can you please let me know what the name of the profile option is?
2) When I select the 'Print Quote' option from the Actions drop down in the quoting page and click Submit I get the report printed and see the following URL in my browser.
http://<host>:<port>/dev60cgi/rwcgi60?PROJ03_APPS+report=/proj3/app/appltop/aso/11.5.0/reports/US/ASOPQTEL.rdf+DESTYPE=CACHE+P_TCK_ID=23731428+P_EXECUTABLE=N+P_SHOW_CHARGES=N+P_SHOW_CATG_TOT=N+P_SHOW_PRICE_ADJ=Y+P_SESSION_ID=c-RAuP8LOvdnv30grRzKqUQs:S+P_SHOW_HDR_ATTACH=N+P_SHOW_LINE_ATTACH=N+P_SHOW_HDR_SALESUPP=N+P_SHOW_LN_SALESUPP=N+TOLERANCE=0+DESFORMAT=RTF+DESNAME=Quote.rtf
Does it mean that the profile in our case is set to call the rdf since it has reference to ASOPQTEL.rdf in the above url?
3) When you click on submit button do we have something like this in the jsp code: On click call ASOPQTEL.rdf. Is the report called using a concurrent program? I want to know how the report is getting invoked?
4) If we want to customize the jsp pages can you please let me know the steps involved in making the customizations and testing them.
Thanks and Appreciate your patience

Print crystal report without using the print button on toolbar

Hi,
I am working on Crystal report XI. I need to print the report w/o using the toolbar. So I have inserted a print icon in the report. On clicking that icon it should call a jsp page which will print the report. I am not able to call any print methods provided by JRC to do this.
Can someone help me with this problem.
Is there some other way to implement it ?
Thanks

Print the report where? On what printer? The server's printer?
Java code runs on the server. You can't affect the client's computer from JSP.
You can write javascript code which can call window.print() but that is working through the browser to display the print dialog box (as if the user selected file:print)

Print a report on doc format truncate data

hi
I have a report launching with a form in an oracle applications, when I print a report on pdf format looks ok
but when I print the same report on doc format truncate data on left and right side.
Can you help me
thanks

Hi Herbe
Reports does not support .doc format. Are you referring .rtf format?
In any case, you must contact Oracle Support to get the issue resolved.

Print the report on page has width larger than height and not landscape mode

Hi,
I'm trying to print report on page (Width: 18cm, Height: 13cm) which the width larger than the height.
The problem is windows keeps changing the page oreintation to landscape and when I change it back to portrait its changing the width to 13cm and height to 18cm.
I'm using dot matrix printer to print the report, if i put Landscape , printer is printing the text in horizontal.
Already i have tried to setup the custom for on printer, and used custom page size but it is changing to landscape.
I need to print the report with out preview, direct print top printer, NO PDF....
Thank you .....

Hi Anil,
After testing the issue in my environment, I can reproduce it. When I set (Width: 18cm, Height: 13cm) as the Report Page size, it would automatically convert Orientation from Portrait to Landscape. Because the Orientation displayed is dependent on the page
width and page height of the report.
But in my scenario, the Orientation option just change the Width and Height sizes, it couldn’t affect the text rotation. I guess this issue can be caused by the printer and printer driver, please try to update them. Reference:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15244336/printing-in-landscape-or-portrait-automatically-rotates-text-ssrs?lq=1
