Report/Concurrent Request shortcut on desktop..

Hi All
I want to create a shortcut for a report/concurrent request which I use frequently. I dont want to login into Oracle Apps. I just want to run the report/concurrent request by clicking on the shortcut and giving the parameters.
Is it possible in Oracle Apps? If yes how to do it?
Regards
Rahman

Hi Rahman,
You'll need to login in some form to submit and/or view the report. You can create a function that will jump to the Submit Requests form (SRS) with your nominated concurrent program defaulted - you could try creating a link on the desktop for it, but the first time at least you'll need to login.
If you frequently use the report why not schedule it to run as often as your need and set the the "Notify" option and "Concurrent:Attach URL" profile option so that you get an email when your report runs, plus a link to the report? NB: This depends on Workflow Notifcation Mailer being configured and running.
Alternatively, some custom solution could be developed to meet your need - but security would always need to be addressed.

How to submit a concurrent request from Discoverer report.

I would like to know If any one has tried submitting a concurrent request from Discoverer Report?_
This is no stupid question, but our team here finally decided with a solution to our long pending issues with few of the discoverer report. To Proceed further, we would like to know, how to submit a concurrent request from Discoverer report?
We are looking for calling a package from the Disco admin by passing the parameters from the disco to the 6i report.
All help us in this regards are much appreciated.
Kindly help us in the same!
Thanks
Arun

Thanks Rod for confirming the same.
I will be trying the same today and will let you know if I succeed in doing it.
If I can share the actual requirement with you, it goes like this.
"I will be triggering the Oracle 6i standard AP Trail balance report through the Disco report. The standard report will be inserting the required data to one of my custom table. Once the concurrent program completes normal, my custom table will be having the required data to create the workbook specific to the current run of the concurrent program.
The one problem which I think could happen is, How can I make my disco report to wait till the standard program to complete in normal so that my disco report can be generated with the data from custom table.
Will the above requirement is possible If I follow the way you mention in the PDF or Could you suggest a better way for achieving the same.
In short, my requirement is: The custom table(say XX_TABLE) will be populated with data when the standard 6i report is run and the disco admin will be making of the custom table (XX_TABLE) to generate the report.
Please advice.
Thanks
Arun

How to get EBS Concurrent Request number (and more) into BIP Report Layout

hi,
I have been using BIP for 9 months but have several years experience of Reports 6i development (matrix, drill-thru etc). We are beginning to use BI Publisher with EBS and would like to be able to incorporate the Concurrent Request number into the report layout (preferably in the footer area). I have looked back over previous forum posts and have found mention of how to get the report parameters into the XML datastream and template, but nothing for the Concurrent Request number. I've also looked at the DevTools/Reports forum but cannot see anything similar there.
It would add a lot of value to generated output for end-users if this information (+ environment/instance name etc) can be put into the layout.
Sean

Hi
Create a data query in data template/reports as
select fnd_global.conc_request_id "REQUEST_ID" from dual
and this will pick up the request id and then u can use it in the RTF layout
Hope this helps..

Need to view concurrent request output(pdf file of XML report)from OAFpage

Hi,
I am submitting a concurrent request from OA page (on click of submit button).
As of now, to view output of the request user has to open SRS form.
Now the rquirement is to submit the request as well as to open the output file of the request in one action(i.e. on click of submitbutton) instead of going to SRS form to view output.
From the forum, I found out the way to go to request monitoring page and view all the current requests. But this is something different from what I am looking for.
Can somebody help m in this case?
Thanks & Regards

How to open Report output in RTF format using concurrent request form.

Hi
I have created a report using BI publisher and RTF format. This report is working fine in PDF format. User can submit report using consurrent request form and can see report preview in PDF format.
Now user wants to submit another request and wants to see report output in RTF format.
User submitted a request, request successfully completed and generated a output RTF file in unix box but when user wants to see report output using concurrent request form (View Output) then window is showing raw data instead of RTF output.
Can any body tell me about solutions?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi Ravi
I did little R&D on it and found following 2 solutions.I am sure that you also find something but for my shake i am putting it here.If you already find the solution then ignore it.
I) 1st Solution
1)Change the profiles 'Viewer: Application for Text' and put value as 'Browser'
2) Change the profiles 'Viewer: Text' and put value as 'Browser'.Either change it system level or concerned user.
3) Log out from Current session and close all internet explorer application.
4) Log in again to check the result
II) 2nd Solution
1) Navigate to: Sys admin --> Install -> Viewer Options to open the Form "Viewer Options".
Do the entry as shown below:
File_Format     Mime Type               Description
RTF          application/rtf Microsoft Word(.rtf)
RTF          application/msword          Microsoft Word(.rtf)
2) Then ensure that the profile option Viewer: Application for Text is set to BLANK at the Site Level and User Level.
3) Then ensure that the profile option Viewer: Text is set to 'browser' at the Site Level.
-- It will pop-up the screen to choose application name from above two values.
Hope this will work it for you. For me i replicated the scenario and both solutions were working for me.

Concurrent Request report with XML Publisher

I have Concurrent program (report) which I modified to work with XML Publisher. I change the output format to XML at the concurrent program page. Then I create the data defenition and template at XML Publisher administrator. Then I uploaded and assign the RTF template as the default template for this concurrent program.
Now I can run this report and get the output in XML report publisher .
But when I am running directly as concurrent request , I dont get any output. What am I doing wrong?

How to increase the column width when viewing a spreadsheet created by a concurrent request

I have created a BI Publisher template to display the output from scheduled discoverer reports. It contains sixty three columns and the heading for each one is a variable but, in order to fit these on the page, each column is about a half a centimeter wide.
When I use the Preview Template option from the RTF file and select Excel the columns are automatically sized to accommodate the data (which is what is required). However, when I upload the template and run a concurrent request and view the output, each column is shown as half a centimetre in width so the user can see very little of the data without resizing all columns. We do not think that this will be acceptable to our users.
We are using Excel 2010 in both cases.
I have looked at this forum and tried a few things without success so any help will be gratefully received.

for ebs 12.1.3 you can create excel template by bip desktop 11
i used bip desktop 11.1.1.5 with ms office 2010 for create excel template for ebs 12.1.2 and 12.1.3
using excel template based on what do you want to do - if report contains complex visualization or many merging of cell and etc

Purge Concurrent Request and/or Manager Data program:

Hi Friends,
I am purging all my test report output logs using the above program, but the table
FND_CONC_PP_ACTIONS is not being deleted;
SQL> select count (*) from FND_CONC_PP_ACTIONS;
COUNT(*)
9470
FND_CONC_PP_ACTIONS
Stores the post request processing actions(e.g., print, notify) for each
submitted request. There's a concurrent_request_id here for each request_id
in the FND_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS.
How can i forced delete the tables? since im still on the testing phase its OK if i zero out
all of it.
Thanks a lot

or I want it zero (0) to delete all You cannot set it to zero (0). The Age parameter should be between (1) and (9999999).
Did I mess it up? when I manually deleted the contents of
I thought I can delete this logs manually because they are on filesystem.
I thought only the database tables are needed to be cared for. Even though you should not bother yourself and delete the files manually under $APPLOG and $APPLOUT directories since the concurrent request will do the job for you, it is safe to delete it manually. The only impact you would have here is, you would not be able to access the log/out files of the concurrent requests (if the requests still presented in the tables and you can see it from the application).
Did you try to use the "Count" parameter instead of the "Age"? The "Count" parameter indicates the number of (most recent) records for which you want to save concurrent request history, log file, and report output files.

Concurrent Request 를 처리하는 File과 Tables
=================================================
PURPOSE
이 Note는 Concurrent Reqeust output & Log 의 저장위치와 DB내 저장되는
Object들에 대한 설명입니다. Purge Concurrent Request and Output을 실행할때 다음 table들의 해당 record들이 삭제됩니다.
Explanations
- FND_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS
This table contains a complete history of all concurrent requests and
stores information about all submitted jobs(requested directly or by a
report set) within applications.
There's one request_id for each requested job in this tables.
- FND_RUN_REQUESTS
When a user submits a report set, this table stores information about the
reports in the report set and the parameter values for each report.
Stores information about all request sets submittted within applications.
Columns parent_request_id and request_id reflect the job# for the
report-set and the jobs it calls to.
- FND_CONC_REQUEST_ARGUMENTS
This table records arguments passed by the concurrent manager to each program
it starts running.
FND_DUAL
This table records when requests do not update database tables.
FND_CONCURRENT_PROCESSES
This table records information about Oracle Applications and operating system
processes.
FND_CONC_STAT_LIST
This table collects runtime performance statistics for concurrent requests.
FND_CONC_STAT_SUMMARY
This table contains the concurrent program performance statistics generated by
the Purge Concurrent Request and/or Manager Data program.
The Purge Concurrent Request and/or Manager Data program uses the data in
FND_CONC_STAT_LIST to compute these statistics.
FND_CONC_PP_ACTIONS
Stores the post request processing actions(e.g., print, notify) for each
submitted request. There's a concurrent_request_id here for each request_id
in the FND_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS.
FND_RUN_REQ_PP_ACTIONS
Stores the post request processing actions(e.g., print, notify) for
submitted request set programs that are stored in FND_RUN_REQUESTS.

How To Schedule a Concurrent Request on completion of a Spawned Request

As soon as the concurrent request submitted through Oracle Form(Consolidation Transfer)is completed we need to schedule another Concurrent Request which had to be kicked off automatically on completion of the First concurrent request. Since, the First concurrent request of Consolidation Transfer is a Spawned Program, the request set could not be created, to kick off the second concurrent program.
I would Appreciate if anyone can advise any solution to achieve this objective.

Hi Harish,
Doesn't matter what you need to do all you need is the hook!
a) Nice. Force the request to print and use print driver to call CONCSUB to submit your new "child" request
-- Since the Consolidation Trasnfer concurrent request could only be submitted through Consolidation Trasnfer Form only, I am not sure how we can do Force Print for this request.
GR: Set printer and style on concurrent program definition. Set profile option "Concurrent:Report Copies" to 1 (even by Forms Personalization if you want to). Sorted. Still think this is the best option.
c) Abstraction. Replace the C executable with a shell script that takes arguments and calls the C program and then submits new "child" request via CONCSUB
-- Appreciate, if you can elaborate this option. I think we can try this, with the help of your detailed input.
GR: Change the executable on the concurrent program to a host shell script under your mods application. Initially just get the shell script to capture program call and arguments. Run the program to get arguments. Next iteration, change shell script to call the C program from your shell script with correct arguments. Verify okay. Next iteration do the same plus call CONCSUB to submit request / set.
d) Nasty. Trigger on fnd_concurrent_requests to call new "child" request via fnd_request.submit_request - NB: very unsupported! Make sure trigger doesn't raise an exception.
-- On completion of the Consolidation Transfer concurrent request, we tried to submit the request set using the Trigger on Consolidation History table and/or fnd_concurrent_requests table. But it is entering into infinite loop.
GR: Need to use trigger condition to capture update of status_code to C (Completed) and other codes e.g. Warning. Personally I'd avoid this option because you have others! Although once I did use this method when I wanted absolute transparency :-)
Update: Changed "Print: Copies" to "Concurrent:Report Copies"

Gareth

Concurrent request submission displays Output in xml format ?

Hi ,
I am submitting a concurrent request from workflow which is an xml publisher report . my problem when the program is run individually it displays the output correctly in rtf format but when the same request is submitted from worklfow the output comes in xml format ?
What could be the problem ?
I am using the standard submission "FND_WF_STANDARD.SUBMITCONCPROGRAM " program and assigning the values directly to it . the submission activity is working fine but the output comes as mentioned above.
Regards,
Skg

Kiran ,
I am not using fnd_request.submit request coc I don't need to capture the user information for my workflow .
I am only using the standard " FND_WF_STANDARD.SUBMITCONCPROGRAM " . this Package only submits the concurrent program through workflow in a function.
no need of backend programming.
My job is to submit and move to the next function . the output will be determined via custom profile option.
now, for this package I am directly assigning the values like appshort name , prog shrt name , and parameter.
there is no mention of layouts anywhere in the standard workflow package .
its very urgent for me friend.
Regards,
Shashank.

Concurrent request -one at a time

I am going to run this request from PL/SQL,
this is going to be called more than 1 time simultaniously, if more than 1 user runs the report at a time.
I want to make it run one at a time, instead of running 2 different calls at same time.
like i want to make the first request get completed and then run the next.
How do i do it?
FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST('BOM','BMCOIN','Import Bills and Routings',
