Problem with column groups on Interactive Report

Hi
I am hoping that someone can help with this problem.
I am attempting to control both the grouping and ordering within each group of fields in the single row view of an interactive report. Creating column groups appears to be OK at first (sequence, name and description) but if I then attempt to edit the group, the sequence box appears to be empty even though it was filled with a unique number at the time of creating the group.
In addition, any changes to the order of the fields within the group made using the shuttle box at the bottom of the screen don't seem to be saved even to the Apply Changes button is pressed.
Anybody know what is happening here and can anyone suggest how to control both the order of the groups and ordering within each group?
Thanks in anticipation

Problem with PDF generation from Interactive Report

Greetings,
I created an interactive report and chose CSV and PDF download options. I am able to create CSV but when I try to download a PDF it says that that acrobat reader cannot open the created pdf file. I am not sure what I should do to make it work. Please help.

Hey there,
That happened to me when I had an & sign in the page title name. If you have some weird symbols in the page title, try changing them. Then it will work.
PS
Make sure in the title name and page name there are no weird symbols.

Table with column group (one column) - next row is showing on new page instead of below previous row

I am creating new table. My goal is to display some text in few lines like this:
"AAAAAAAA" "BBBBBBBB" "CCCCCCCCC"
"DDDDDDD" "EEEEEEEE"
Actually the next row (with "DD" and "EE" values) is not displayed below first row, but on the next page.
I've tried to put table into rectangle, disabled all page breaks and still the same effect. Any help?

Hi Heidi,
Actually, it's not solution, I only gave more details about my problem :)
Another description:
In my report I'm creating Tablix with Column grouping. There is only one column with image (every image has same width). If there is only three pictures, then they are displayed next to each other in one row.
In case, there is more than three pics, another row is showing on next page. I'd like to display all rows one after another on one page.
I've tried to create three vertical lists, and filter each column group to display only records:
1) =(RowNumber("Tablix1")) mod 3 = 1
2) =(RowNumber("Tablix1")) mod 3 = 2
3) =(RowNumber("Tablix1")) mod 3 = 0
Unfortunately, I got an error:
"A FilterExpression for the tablix ‘Tablix1’ uses the function RowNumber. RowNumber cannot be used in filters."
Do You have any other propositions?
--------EDIT--------
ok, I manged to solve it. As I said, I've created three vertival lists and placed them next to each other.
Then, instead of using filter, I've used Visibility trigger:
1)
=IIf(RunningValue(Fields![rowgroupfield].Value, COUNTDISTINCT, "Tablix1") mod 3 = 1, false, true)
2)
=IIf(RunningValue(Fields![rowgroupfield].Value, COUNTDISTINCT, "Tablix2") mod 3 = 2, false, true)
3)
=IIf(RunningValue(Fields![rowgroupfield].Value, COUNTDISTINCT, "Tablix3") mod 3 = 0, false, true)
I had to use function RunningValue to count all occurrences, as my report is quite complex and "RowNumber" [ssrs function] and "ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY [rowgroupfield])" [sql query] were not working properly.

Problem with multiple group functions

Hello Everyone...
I have a huge problem with trying to create a report.
Here is the situation:
1. I have a database that registers certain events for units. Each event is stored in a separate register.
2. There is a specific code that the units have that I need to identify their origin, because they must be grouped by origin. The origin is identified by the first digit of the code. This code only appears in the events that occur after production.
3. Before that, an order number is used to identify the events.
4. What I need is to identify the time difference between two specific events, and get the following: average, standard deviation, count, and level of service. The level of service is the percentage of units in which the difference was no higher than the average plus the standard deviation.
I managed to create a query that does that, but it is too slow.
Since I can't reveal my code, I will try to explain in words what I did:
1. I created two almost identical queries that obtain the event information I need. The first one obtains the information of the event that occurs the earliest. (let's call this queries 1 and 2)
2. As this is supposed to be a generic query that only needs to be modified for different events, it contemplates the case that the event is before production and does not include the specific code I mentioned earlier. So I created another query that uses the order number and looks for a (later) production event to obtain that code. (let's call this query 3).
3. Then I obtained count, standard deviation and average for the difference between events.
4. Then, for the service level, I had to create an outside query that again uses queries 1, 2, and 3 because it needs the information of individual units to calculate it. So here is the structure of my query, using some pseudocode (I'm not revealing any actual code):
Select (averagestd.origin, average, stddev,
sum(case
when abs(q2.vehicle_event_dt - q1.vehicle_event_dt -
average) <= stddev then
1
else
0
end) / count service_level from
(select q1.origin,
avg(q2.vehicle_event_dt -q1.vehicle_event_dt),
stddev(q2.vehicle_event_dt - q1.vehicle_event_dt),
count(*) from
(select {event data} from query1, query3 where
query1.order_number = query3.order_number) q1,
(select {event data} from query2, query3 where
query1.order_number = query3.order_number) q2
where q1.order_number=q2.order_number) avgstd,
(select {event data} from query1, query3 where
query1.order_number = query3.order_number) q1,
(select {event data} from query2, query3 where
query1.order_number = query3.order_number) q2
where q1.order_number = q2.order_number and
q1.origin = avgstd.origin
The database is huge and it's taking too long to run it.
Do you have any idea on how can I optimize this query?
All the information in all queries comes from the same table.
Thank you very much for your help.
Eduardo Schnadower

Okay, so my report is set up as above with 4 groups
group 1 group code
group 2 sub group code
group 3 customer code
group 4 product code
what i need to be able to do is select the sub group total and run a sub report to display the products total for that sub group and then the same for group, run a report from the group total to show the products which make up that group total. Is there any other way to acheive this?

Link column from an interactive report to insert a row in a tabular form

Hi, I need your help, i'm new on APEX and i really need to make a "link column" from an "interactive report" to insert a row into a "tabular form".
I mean that when you click the "link column" instantly create a new row in the Tabular form with the information of the linked row on the interactive report. Its something like that.
I really appreciate your help.
Ricardo Capuz

Hi Ricardo,
You can use the following code as per your requirement (this is just an example),
(In this case IR report is in Page#1 and Tabular form is in Page#2),
On Page#1, Create a hidden item (i.e 'P1_ID')
IR Report query as like the below,
select empno,
ename,
job,
mgr,
hiredate,
sal,
comm,
deptno,
empno "copy"
from empUse the below JS code in Page HTML Header section,
function f_insert_row(pSub)
$s('P1_ID',pSub);
doSubmit('ADD');
Edit Report Attribute -> copy column -> Under Column Link
Link Text: Select your column name (i.e. #EMPNO#)
Target: URL
URL: javascript:f_insert_row(#EMPNO#);
Then create a process to insert like below,
BEGIN
insert into emp_test (select * from emp where empno=:P1_ID);
END;Process condition as * Request=Expression1* in Expression1 as 'ADD'.
At last, create a branch to Page#2, Check 'include process success message' and with the same condition as * Request=Expression1* in Expression1 as 'ADD'.
Thanks,
Lakshmi

Custom Column freezing in interactive reports

Hi,
Can anyone help me regarding column freezing in interactive reports?
I want to keep few of the column of my IR fixed that is not scrollable(horizontally),selection of column to be freezed should also be there.
Along with it i also want a horizontall scrollbar to appear for scrolling the report.
Thanks,

Hi Vish,
I was informed by SAP few months back that Interactive Reports can not be enhanced with custom fields. I don't see any documentation regarding this.
You may want to check with SAP also.

Problems with parameter button in Crystal Report Server 2008

Dear all,
I have problems with parameter button in Crystal Report Server 2008.
when I created some parameters and groups in Crystal Report 2008, they showed both parameters in 'Parameter button' and group in 'Group button' on the left, so I can choose or type without clicking 'Refresh button' But when I added it to Crystal Report Server 2008 and I click parameter button , it doesn't show any parameter. Only click refresh button to choose them. On the other hand, for 'Group Tree' is ok. When go to Default Setting-> Parameter, all parameters are in 'Unused parameter' First time I think I had problems with my installation, but when I reinstalled it again, it was like before.
Could any one help me with this?
I appreciate looking forward to your reply

Creating Dynamic Column Headings in Interactive Reports

Hi,
any ideas how I can alter the name of a column in an interactive report.?
I have columns whose usage is defined by the end user and consequently want to have their own meaningful column header displayed whenever this column is referenced.
I can get column headers to change in standard reports by using PL/Sql to return the column headers. In Forms, I use shortcuts (these don't seem to work for reports, I wish they did) but I'm at a loss on how to achieve this with IR's.
Thanks
Mike

I wrote a script(application process) that updated the table that holds column name. I changed the display name, not the column name. I cant remember the actual table, but i found it by looking at the code that create the "APEX Application Page Ir Col" View.
I dont know if this is best practice, but it works for me.

Problem with columns in the middle of my book

I am writing my second book with Pages 2.02 and have run into a problem with columns. I want to add a long list of items as a list with check boxes for readers to check off. If I paste in enough text for three or four pages of two columns it gets messed up in various ways - the text flows into the following text if I don't use section breaks at the end instead of layout breaks, if I use section breaks it solves that one, but if I add anything to the list it changes all the columns across the pages so that one or several of the pages has way less in the right column than in the left. So far the left column fills the entire page all the time, but the right column has lots of spaces. If I switch back and forth from one column to two, it fixes it. If I add text before the list section it messes everything up again and because there is a section break I end up with a little bit of text on the last page and a huge gap before the single column part that follows.
Does anyone know how to get reliable results that will not mess me up when adding content before the list or in the list itself?
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Hi Cymru,
Thank you for thinking about my problems. I guess I s half asleep when I posted and it didn't make sense.
I have so far 77 pages of the book divided into several chapters via section breaks. Inside the 5th section there is almost two pages of paragraphs. Those paragraphs could become 3.75 pages or who knows how long before the list of items. The list of items is 226 items separated by carriage returns and go from one word with 5 characters to 7 words and 34 characters. It needs to be a list with check boxes before them so that the user can check off the items that apply. It is a workbook about turning bipolar into an advantage and is currently 8.5 x 11 and printed on my laser printer for now, but when completed will be more like 8 x 10, so it needs to resize without major hassles.
I have tried every combination of breaks to get the list to flow in two columns, but perhaps have not done the correct combination. I show invisibles and layout. At the end of my paragraphs I do a paragraph return. I then do either a section break or a layout break, followed by a paragraph return and another layout or section break. I then put my curser before the paragraph break, but after the first section/paragraph break, and set columns to 2, evenly divided by default with 3.2026" columns and .3375" gutter, but I want them to change with page size in the future.
Once set up, I copy the text out of BBEdit and paste into the left column. It takes up several pages because it is formatted to do double spaces, so I use one of my styles to make it bold and single spaces. I then apply list style with image bullets and one of the default box images that came with Pages. There are 5 items in each column on the first page because it is close to the bottom, but flows into the next two pages. (with text edits it might end up 20 items in each column on the first page) The second page has 39 items in each column and the last page has 8 items in the left column only, but if with section breaks take up the whole page and the next paragraphs start on the next page. If I then add items to the list, every page gets messed up and the second page ends up with 39 on the left column and less items in the right column for each added item.
If I use layout breaks instead of section breaks, the paragraphs following my lists (now with only one column) end up under the list. What that means is I can see my bold items, but beneath them are my paragraphs that belong after the list. I can see the layout break at the end of the list, but the columns that are shown as part of the 'view layout' are visible right over the single column text also for the rest of the page. The only way to solve that is to go with section breaks and put up with the gap from the end of the list to the following paragraphs.
I hope this makes more sense.

Problem with checkbox group in row popin of table.

In table row popin I have kept Check Box Group.I have mapped the texts property of checkbox group to the attribute which is under the subnode of the table.the subnode properties singleton=false,selectioncardinality=0-n,and cardinality=0-n.
if there are 'n' number of records in the table.each record will have its own row popin and in the row popin there is check box group.
the check box group in the row popin belongs to that perticular row.
but the checkboxegroup values in row popins of all the rows are getting changed to the row which is lead selected.
The same scenario (table in the row popin is showing the values corresponding to its perticular row and all the table values in popin are not getting changed to the one lead selected in the main table)is working fine with the table in place of checkbox group in row popin with datasource property of table binded to the subnode
I cant trace out the problem with checkbox group in place of table.
Please help me in this regard.I have to place check box group in place of table in row popin.
Thanks and Regards
Kiran Kumar K

I have done the same thing successfully with normal check box ui element. Try using check box in your tabel cell editor instead of check box group.

Problem with PDF extract in a report

Hi guys,
We are facing a peculiar problem with PDF extract in a report. When we run a report and export PDF , all the records in the result set are populated in the PDF. however, if I navigate away from the report and return back to the same report, and click on export pdf (with the result set already populated) i get a blank PDF document without any records. If i run the report again and then export the PDF it works fine.
Export excel works fine for all cases.
I am assuming it has got something to do with the way the system handles the cache for PDF export.
I also found that this occurs only when we have a value list filter with "none" set as default,and in this case, initially on opening the report for the first time the query does not get executed automatically.
Any help on this would be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
immanuel

Hi Immanuel,
Have you tried clearing the cache? My guess is, it is probably a defect.
Regards,
Vikram

Best way to style a column in an interactive report?

Since I'd rather not do it directly in the SQL used to populate the report, can someone suggest a clean way to style all cells of a given column from an interactive report? Perhaps all cells of interest can be addressed through jquey using the "headers" attribute they share?

Oh, and I'd also like to make the vertical separations between cells aparent if possible....Please try this one:
.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA TD {border-style:ridge;border-color:#98bf21;
border-width:3px;}For more details please visit:
