Problem ! Calling report6 from forms6(run_product()) using global temporary table.

Question

Requirement :
To generate stock movement report for certain selected items.
Background :
A Form is created with data block (tmp_item_master - a global temporary table)
when_new_form_instance :
inserting into tmp_item_master from item_master and then execute_query on tmp_item_master block.
User selects certain items using check box provided.
Now tmp_item_master is updated for ch_select_flag_yn = 'Y' for selected items
and commit.
Calling report from form(using run_product()).
Now the main query in report, is joined with tmp_item_master where ch_select_flag_yn = 'Y'
Here, we are unable to see the report for any item. As the global temporary table data is not visible in the report session.
How to resolve this problem ?
Note : global temporary table created with ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS
Thanking you,
From praful.

Hi,
You are using 'ON Commit Delete Rows' . Instead of Use ' ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS'
The ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS clause indicates that the data should be deleted at the end of the transaction.
CREATE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE my_temp_table (
column1 NUMBER,
column2 NUMBER
) ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS;
In contrast, the ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS clause indicates that rows should be preserved until the end of the session.
CREATE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE my_temp_table (
column1 NUMBER,
column2 NUMBER
) ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS;
