Register Drill-Down Reports in Oracle Apps 11i

I understand the registration process for registering a drill-down Oracle*Report in Oracle Applications is more complex as for a standard Oracle*Report. Does anyone know what the steps are, or where I can find documentation on this.
Any help appreciated.

Hi,
ah ok, now the situation gets clearer ;)
Normally I would say that drill-down requires some kind of interactivity, so I am not sure if reports is the best way for this, because the functionality of reports is:
enter parameters > run > view output. But for drill-down you need some more functionality: select a column/value where you want to drill-in or out, have some kind of hierarchy to select the "drill-level"... I don't think that this is foreseen in Reports 6i. So I would try maybe two different ways:
1. design the report in a way that the users can select the drill-level (or level of detail) as a report parameter. For example you create a parameter "Detail Level" with possible values "Summary", "Detailed Rows". Based on the parameter value chosen the report returns different output. This keeps you of course limited to a certain, fixed set of drill-levels, but I think this is ok in most of the cases.
2. Another option could be to create several different reports, for example one "Summary" report and one "detailed" report, and in the summary report you could include links (dynamic URLs) to the detailed report, and when the user clicks on a certain value in the Summary report, then the detailed report is started for that specific value. However this is a bit more complex, I'd go for the first option.
But to get real drill-down functionality you should consider using Discoverer or BI Publisher technology, those are perfect for such kind of reports.
kind regards,
David.

    Hi,
    regarding adding (Add (C:\ABC) to FORMS60_PATH in the registry) could you please explain
    compilation is by f60gen @ (is this right?)Correct, the syntax of using f60gen is explained in (Note: 130686.1 - How to Generate Form, Library and Menu for Oracle Applications).
    The place where i am working has apps installed in IBM AIX server .. so how do i access Apps
    or can i access Apps via TOAD.You will have to access the server using ftp to download the pll files to your local machine. TOAD can be used to access the database objects only (not the physical application files).

  • Register BI Publisher report in Oracle Apps

    Hi,
    I wanted to know, if we can register a BI Publisher report in Oracle Apps. Please note that this is BI publisher Release 10.1.3.4...I am not using any rdf here.
    Thanks,
    As

    Hii Gareth,
    The steps you specified are basically used for former XML publisher but as i am developing the report in BI Publisher, when we create data definition in xml administrator responsibility, that time we need to upload a data template file that looks like following:
    <dataTemplate name="InvoiceTest" description="Invoice Test" Version="1.0">
         <parameters>
              <parameter name="P_ORG_ID" dataType="Integer"/>
         </parameters>
         <dataQuery>
              <sqlStatement name="Q1">
                   <![CDATA[select a.invoice_num AS "Invoice Number",
            a.invoice_currency_code AS "Invoice Currency code",
            a.payment_currency_code AS "Payment Currency Code",
            sum(a.invoice_amount) AS "Invoice Amount",
            a.payment_method_lookup_code AS "Payment Method",
            sum(a.approved_amount) AS "Approved Amount",
            b.vendor_name "Vendor Name",
               b.vendor_id AS Vendor_id
                   from ap_invoices_all a,
    po_vendors b
    where invoice_type_lookup_code = 'STANDARD'
    and a.vendor_id = b.vendor_id
    and a.org_id = NVL(:P_ORG_ID,a.ORG_ID)
    group by
            b.vendor_name,
            a.invoice_num,
            a.invoice_currency_code,
            a.payment_currency_code,
            a.invoice_date,
            a.payment_method_lookup_code,
               b.vendor_id]]>
              </sqlStatement>
         </dataQuery>
    </dataTemplate>
    but as Latest BI Publisher does not provide/generate such file automatically (I am not using rdfs but querying the database from BI Publisher itself) so there is no use of using this way registering the BI Publisher report in Oracle Apps as using this way to register a BI Publisher report will lead me to manually make a data definition file and then register it into Oracle Apps. Please suggest me if there is any other way that i can go for or if there is any way i can get the data definition file automatically created from Latest BI Publisher.
    Thanks for your help,

  • Drill down report on Oracle R-Enterprise with OBIEE 11g

    Greeting Guru
    I see the demo that OBIEE can use the png graphic file produced by R.
    Is it possible to produce drill down report that way ?
    We are doing statistical analysis and we would like to do a drill down with some of our data visualization results.
    Is there demo/example code ??
    Thanks for the help

    The link above shows a graphic generated by R got embedded in OBIEE11g dashboard
    e.g. on presentation p.42 there is a graphic of flight delays by airport.  top 36 busiest airport
    Is it possible that with a double clicks of  JFK, it opens up another reports that is related to JFK let say group it by different airline provider of group by different flight destination for the delay reports.

  • Developing Report for Oracle Apps 11i

    Hi,
    I am developing Reports for Oracle 11.5.8 and using Reports 6i
    Are there any good documents that can guide me to develop reports exclusively for Oracle Applications
    I am customizing one of the report, did a very minor modification and when I run it, it shows small square boxes in the output.
    If I print it, I dont see the small boxes, Can you let me know how to avaoid this.
    Aslo have a couple of questions, should I use the option "use character units in designer" or something else while developing the reports
    What shold be the unit of measurement (Inches, Centimeter or Points)
    Lastly, is it a good idea to "View the Grid" or not in the "layout editor"
    Thanks
    Vasanth

    Hi Vasanth,
    when I run it, it shows small square boxes in the outputI can think of 2 posssibilities:
    one, the width of the column in the layout is slightly smaller than required. You can try increasing the width of the layout objects where you see square boxes.
    two, you are designing the report in a language for which support/font is not available on your development machine.
    should I use the option "use character units in designer"This option should be used when you design a report in "character mode", not when you are designing the report in "bitmap mode". Pl see Builder Help for more information on MODE.
    What shold be the unit of measurementIs it up to you to decide. If you know the dimensions of the paper (on which you are going to print) in inches for example, you can design the report in inches. Choose any unit of measurement, and then define the width and height of paper in the Header/Main/Trailer Sections in that particular unit. The report output will be the same whether you choose the paper width as 10 inches or 25.4 cm.
    Also, about point...
    Point: Is a printer's type size that makes up a pica. Each pica contains twelve points and is equivalent to one-sixth of an inch.
    is it a good idea to "View the Grid" or not in the "layout editor"The grid is available to help you position objects in the viewing region of the paper layout. It is helpful so you can start designing with it, but you can decide to turn it off if you do not need it.
    The grid is drawn in relationship to the rulers. In the Ruler Settings dialog box, you specify the interval at which grid lines appear per unit on the ruler. �For example, if you have a Unit of inches and a Grid Spacing of 0.5, there will be one grid line per half-inch on the ruler.
    You get to the Ruller Settings dialog Box by choosing Tools > Options > Rulers.

    Hi,
    What do you mean by drill down reports in Oracle Apps. Do you mean using Reports Developer. It cant be done, that is why the need of Discoverer reports. Discoverer reports can be run ( viewer ) from applications but generally associated with a separate responsibility. You can drill down from there..

  • Drill down report on Report Server

    How to run a drill-down report on Oracle report Server?
    The drill-down report works fine in Client Server. When the same report is tried on Web (Run a reoprt on Web using Oracle Report Server - Oracle Report 6i) it do't work.
    The problem is:
    1)The drill-down button doe't appear as button. It appears as text.
    2)How to pass the parameter from the main report to the drill-down report.
    For Ex. When you click on SS_No on the main report the drill-down report runs to show the salary, 401K deterction etc., for that particular employee.
    Thanks

    I dont understand if you are working in Client server or web
    but...
    If you are running in C/S you can use the host command from
    reports.
    If you are running reports on the web then you should also run
    forms on the web and then you can use the Forms servlet or cgi
    implementation to have a URL that activates the form, or just
    call a static HTML form that activates the form on the web.
    If your report is on the web and your form is C/S then
    As far as I know HTML cannot activate program on the computer
    that views it.

  • Registering Forms in Oracle Apps 11i

    Hi hussein,
    This is the docs for registering an Oracle Form in Oracle Apps 11i.
    To Register a custom form in Oracle Applications, take the following steps.
    (As practice, copy the form FNDRSRUN.fmx under the $FND_TOP/forms to a file
    called RUNRPT.fmx. The form RUNRPT.fmx will now be used in the following steps.)
    1.Log into the Applications Developer responsibility
    2.Navigate to Application > Form
    3.Enter the form name under the "Form" column
         RUNRPT
    4.Enter the Application under the "Application" column using the list of value
      button, or the "List of Values" function under the "Edit" menu option.
         Application Object Library
    5.Enter a name for the form under the "User Form Name" column
         My Report Run Form
    6.Enter a description for the form under the "Description" column
         Custom Report Run Form
    7.Save
    [\code]
    My question is, how do I run the form in the Oracle Apps? After registering it.
    And this is also another doc:Rgistering form will takes following steps
    1) Create custom form
    2) place it in CUSTOM_TOP in unix box
    3) compile form with f60 gen and check whether compiled form .fmx is generated.
    4) register your from

    6) attach it to menu.
    7) menu must be submenu to menu or attached as to responsibility from which you are going to run form.
