Referencing fields from interactive report

Nevermind!
Hi,
I'm working with an interactive report for the first time and I'd like to direct the "edit" button for a record to another page so I can use that record's data in the new page. How do I get the other page to reference the record I selected in the interactive report?
Thanks!

Download data from interactive report

Hi all. I'm on apex 3.1.1.00.09.
I have this problem: when I download data from interactive report I can download only in CSV and PDF. If I try to download into pdf it creates a file of only 1 KB.
I would know if I must configure my apex in order to download correctly in pdf and if I must configure it in order to download in doc and xls format.
Thanks all for collaboration,
Fabrizio

Thank you for your reply.
I am able to download the csv file, but my problem is: I don't want the column headings to show.
Is it possible to download only the data, not the column headings?

Is it possible to have editable text field in interactive report?

Is it possible to have editable text field in interactive report?
Thanks,

Hi,
I followed your suggestion and defined an IR with apex_item.text columns and it works fine. Now however I face a new problem when I run the page and use the standard Search Bar:
- Click on Actions/Filter
- Select a column, for example the employee name.
- Open the Expression field LOV: I correctly see the different names.
- When I select one of the names, in the Expression field, instead of the name, I see:
"<input type="text" name="f03" size="20" maxlength="2000" value="Eugene" />"
Horrible!!!!!!
Is there a way to see the name and not that expression? The same thing get downloaded, so it´s really annoying.
Thank you very much in advance for your help!!!

Set Form Values From Interactive Report Row

Using Apex 4.2.
I have two tables: T1 and T2
Table T1 contains five columns: CT11, CT12, CT13, CT14, CT15
Table T2 contains 4 columns: CT21, CT22, CT23, CT24
I have a page with two regions. Region 1 is a Form on a Table using table T1. Region 2 is an Interactive Report ( IR ) on table T2.
The SQL for region 2 is: select apex_item.RADIOGROUP(p_idx => 1, p_value => CT21) "Choose", CT22, CT23, CT24 from T2;
When the user clicks a radio button for a row in the Interactive Report, I would like the values in the IR cells CT22, CT23, CT24 to populate the CT13, CT14, CT15 fields in the table form in region 1. If a user clicks another row radio button, the values should update.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,
As per my understanding ur requirement is as below.
When the user clicks the 'Link Column' it should redirect to another page with the value of id, Day, Start Time, and End Time.
Hope all the cloumns are from the same table.
As Denes said, it is enought to pass the ID value to the link column as of below.
ie., u can modify ur query as of below.
SELECT Last Name,First Name,Day,Start Time,End Time, ID as "Link Column"
FROM t.
Now u can pass the value as #Link Column# which will pass the ID value to the next page.
Hope my understanding is correct.

Send E-mail from Interactive Report, mulitple e-mail addresses

I am using Apex 4.1. I would like to enter multiple e-mail addresses in the TO field of the download, e-mail section of an interactive report. To be clear when I click on download from the actions menu of an interactive report and choose E-mail, you are presented with the form that has To, CC, BCC, etc. I would like to enter multiple e-mail addresses in the TO text box. I have tried separating them with semi-colons, commas, and even spaces. Whenever I enter two addresses, I do not get any mail. How can I address an interactive report to multiple e-mail addresses. Thank you so much.

Hi,
We misread the documentation and the Actions > Download > Email option does not support multiple email addresses, I have tried it on my workspace and it is throwing ORA-29279: SMTP permanent error: 553 5.1.3 which is because of unsupported multiple emails.
In this doc says that it is allowed to use multiple emails under
Actions > Subscription (and this is entirely different from above)

Error in exporting from Interactive Report to PDF format

Hello,
i am using APEX and from an Interactive Report i am trying to export using Download | PDF format. The table and corresponding report has only text fields. Database character set is UTF-8. Up to now i haven't been able to get a PDF file that can be open from Adobe Acrobat Reader. Every file fails opening with message like "Adobe Reader could not open filename.pdf, because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). This happens for every report i have tried up to now. If i export report in CSV format all are ok.
Is there a known bug with PDF download of APEX?
TIA

See this link: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/configure_printing.html
FOP & Cocoon are free (just need to install the software and configure) Bi Publisher I believe works only for Standard Reports and no Interactive reports at this time.. If you have the $$ BI Publisher is worth the investment!!
Also, it is rumored that APEX 4.0 will have the PDF generation built in as apposed to the current model where you need to bolt something on..
Thank you,

ORA-20876 in csv export from interactive report = Possibly a bug?

Hi Apex team,
yesterday i tried to download data to csv from an interactive report. The resulting csv file contained a "ORA-20876: Stop APEX Engine" only and no other data. I played around with other reports in my application and had no problems with exports.
After some investigation i found out that the buggy report contains a column of display type "Display as text (based on a LOV, escape special characters)". When I changed this column type to "Standard Report Column" for example, the error didn't appear anymore and the csv export contained complete data.
Maybe this is a bug? The environment is Apex 4.1.1.00.23 on 11g (UTF-8). Is there a workaround available?
Regards,
Jens

Additional Information
The problem seems to occur only if a Shared Components LOV of type "Static" is referenced in the IR column.

Hi,
what happens if you take the query from IR report and create a new classic report?
On this report enable csv export and then try the export.
Maybe that (format) data are causing export to fail.
Try to export just one row in your IR report (and classic report), so that you add where rownum < 2.

Custom date fields in Interactive Report

Hi,
I am using newly patched version of Apex - 4.0.2.00.06
What I am trying to do is to have two datepicker fields P84_DATE_FROM and P84_DATE_TO in separate HTML region, on the page that has IR / Interactive Report, that will be filter in report source.
In debug mode I noticed that values that are picked with datepicker are not binding in report sql.
select * from calendar_x
where
date between to_date(:P84_DATE_FROM,'DD.MM.YYYY') and to_date(:P84_DATE_TO,'DD.MM.YYYY')
Do I have to force submit on Go button before it executes gReport.search('SEARCH')? Is it the right way to go about this?
Thnx,

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.

Adding new fields in interactive reports in Opportunity area

Hi All,
We have implemented SAP CRM 7.0 ( SP8) and we are using the interactive reporting available in the system. When we try to build a custom report using the manage reporting link (which leads to a wizard), the wizard lets us choose between 34 available fields in opportunity area. The customer wants to include few more fields to this list like Prospect id, Opportunity id, Item descriptions which are standard fields but not available in interactive reporting. So I am trying to find out from where in system those 34 fields are configured and how I can add few extra fields to that list.
With EHP1, SAP has provided a interactive reporting enhancement workbench, but we are on SP8. So any help or information is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Manas.

Open document from interactive report

Application Express version 4.0.2.00.07.
In apex I am trying to accomplish the following:
1. create a link to a pdf or Word document stored on local network using the file browse button.
2. store the link to that file in my table but not store the actual document in the oracle table.
3. open the document from link in interactive report.
My dba does not want to store anymore documents into oracle because of performance issues we are experiencing with current applications that do this. Does anyone know the where to find sample code that will accomplish this task or will load the linked document into the oracle table but delete the document from the blob when the document is closed.

You're probably looking to use the BFILE functionality - a pointer to a LOB on the filesystem.
Try looking at some of the following sources for guidance

Changing value of input field in interactive report

Hi all,
I have created interactive report. On 3rd list, i had calculated total for netwr filed and it is displayed at bottom.
netwr field on list is editable. If value in netwr changed by user , value for total should be changed on same list.
Can anybody help me out?
Thanks and Regards,
Rakesh.

Hi Rakesh
Within the third alv's usercommand, Try this code.
FORM user_command1 USING r_ucomm LIKE sy-ucomm
       rs_selfield TYPE slis_selfield.
    CASE r_ucomm.
         WHEN 'EDIT'.
             <code>
             CALL METHOD <alv_instance>->refresh_table_display
                 EXPORTING
                 is_stable = <third_alv_internal_table>
                 EXCEPTIONS
                 finished = 1
                 OTHERS = 2.
ENDCASE.
ENDFORM.
This will refresh the internal table each item a edit operation is done, after this write the code to find the sum.

Filter on field in Interactive report to small/narrow

In a interactive report I have the problem that the first (about) 30 positions of the values of one of the fields is not unique. So if you want to use the filter function it is impossible to know which value is selected. Is there a way to make these drop down select list wider for some fields?
Any one?

Found the ANSWER!!
If I click on the little 'wheel' and click filter, I can choose other expressions. whooa!

Hiding some fields from ALV report

Hi All,
I want to know if there is way to hide certain fields in ALV for some users only and not for others?
If I use the option NO_OUT = 'X' it will not be displayed in the list but the user can see the in the Layout option fields but if use NO_OUT = 'X' and TECH = 'X' the field will not be in the list and in the layout also but other users will miss that field.
If I create user specific variant, but once the user is in the report he can change the layout so certain fields cannot be hidden.
So, is there any way to hide some fields for certain users and not for others without hard coding user ids in program and restricting the fields from display??
Thanks in Advance.
Sonali.

Thank You Vijay for the reply.
I knew that Authorization object was the final solution but before using it I wanted to find out if there was a way in the ALV report to restrict certain fields.

Error opening PDF downloaded from Interactive Report

hi -- I'm getting an error opening a PDF file downloaded from an interactive report.
I've seen on the forum that this could be related to the size of the file, but I've tried
this out on 10-row results (1k files) and it's still an issue.
I save the file to my file system. If I try to open it in Adobe Reader, I get:
File does not begin with '%PDF-'
and
Adobe Reader could not open <filename>.pdf because it is either not a supported
file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email
attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
If I try to open in Internet Explorer, I get:
File does not begin with '%PDF-'
Other users are having the same problem. Download to csv and open in Excel works fine.
Do I need to have special print attributes for this? I didn't think so... I'm just using the defaults
(response header = report settings, content disposition = attachment).
Ideas?
Thanks,
Carol

Hi,
I'm having the same problem that was described above, and my site does have BI Publisher installed, and it does successfully produce readable pdfs for many reports.
But there are other reports, even reports produced using the Apex Wizard and all defaults, that just keep producing the same Adobe Reader error reported above, ie
"Adobe Reader could not open <filename>.pdf because it is either not a supported
file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email
attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."
Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Peter
