Report Customization Form Question

How do you display the report customization before the report is rendered?

If the Report is used as a portlet, I think it's not possible. Only the personalize link will display the customization options
If the report is display in a full page, try: <SCHEMA>.<REPORT>.show_parms

  • Calling javascript function from report customization form

    I have been unable to call any user-defined javascript function from Portal Report Customization forms.
    Even a simple Message Box function doesn't work. I've been placing my code in the ..after header PL/SQL section for the report customization form.
    htp.p('<script type="javascript">');
    htp.p('function MsgBox(message){');
    htp.p('alert(message);}');
    htp.p('</script>');
    htp.p('See if it works');
    I have verified in plain html that my syntax is fine. Even the syntax rendered by portal is correct:
    <script type="javascript">
    function MsgBox(message){
    alert(message);}
    </script>
    See if it works
    Despite this, you will get a javascript error that an Object is expected, MsgBox not defined. Clearly from the script above MsgBox is defined.
    I have tried any number of calls to user defined functions and can't get anything to work. However, calling native functions like 'alert' works fine ( ie
    See if it works
    Anyone know how I can call a user defined javascript function in a Portal Report Customization form?

    Try changing the code
    htp.p('<script type="javascript">');
    to
    htp.p('<script language="javascript">');

  • Search report customization form

    Hi,
    does anyone know how I can achieve context-insensitivity in a query-wizard based report customization form??
    Or how I can default user entries in the query fields to all UpperCase?
    Thanks for you help!!
    Maike

    Hi,
    This cannot be done in query based wizard report. You can do this in sql based report by designing your query in such a way.
    select * from scott.emp
    where upper(ename) like upper(:name)
    This code makes the code cases insensitive inspite of the user entering small case in the :name.
    Thanks,

  • Two LOVs in same report customization form causes problems

    My report includes two parameters which are set by the user using dynamic LOVs in the customization form. The report used to only have one parameter and this worked fine. After including the second one only one of the LOVs work as they should. The second one doesn't trigger a value to be sent to the report. Working separately the second parameter/LOV also works as it should.
    The code:
    SELECT distinct ID, STILLING, F_DATO, STILLING_NAA, DATO
    FROM JOBBSOKNADER
    WHERE STILLING in :lov_stillinger
    union
    SELECT distinct A.ID, A.STILLING, A.F_DATO, A.STILLING_NAA, A.DATO
    FROM JOBBSOKNADER A, JOBBINT_KOBL B
    WHERE A.ID = B.JOBBSOKNADER_ID
    AND A.STILLING = '(apen soknad)'
    and B.INT_ID in :lov_interessefelt

    Hi,
    Are you trying to use dependant LOVs i.e second LOV depends on the value selected in the first LOV. If you are trying that, then reports does not support that. You have this facility only in forms.
    If I have understood wrong, then please give me the query you used for the LOVs
    Thanks,

  • Report customization form only posts default settings

    I am currently on version 3.0.9.
    We have problems with reports generated with the wizard where settings in the customization form return to default when posted. The problem only happens when the report is viewed as a portlet. It works fine when it's run in full page mode.

    I have experienced the same problem with other default parameters also. I used the workaround for maximum rows in portlet. I defined a contstant if the Page Parameters for the maximum rows.
    I did NOT find a work around for Break fields in Reports.
    If anybody can tell me how to fix the "bug" or has a workaround I would greatly appreciate it!!!

  • How to get the value from another report Customizes Form

    Dear all,
    I create a report such as
    select * from mytable.table1
    where field1 = :bind_variable
    I create a menu to run this Customized Form and user have to select the bind_variable values. So I have another report created which also want this bind_variable as it WHERE Clause. But I don't want my user to key the same bind variable twice. They can just same the Customized Form and run for both report.
    Could anybody know how to get the bind_variable on 1st report and used by the 2nd report.
    Thank you very much.
    Best Rgds,
    SL Voon

    Hi,
    are you on BI7.0? There you can create variables type replacement path and get the value out from a different variable without any coding.

  • Passing a parameter to aReport Customization Form

    I have a report that has a default view and a customized view. The default view has a button that allows the user to customize the report by showing the same report in show_parms mode. This allows them to sort and break on different fields. I would like to send the same parameter sent to the default view to the version generated by the run button on the customization form. I just can't fiqure out how to do it. Any ideas would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Linda

    Martin,
    Thank you for responding. I will certainly keep in mind the way you solved the problem. But I actually solved it myself with the following technique.
    STEPS
    1. Created a link to the Reports Customization form from the Report.
    2. Captured the value of the parameter sent through the URL to the bind variable for the report.
    3. Set the parameter value to a global variable using the Session storage API=wwsto_api_session.
    4. Retrieved the value of the global variable by setting the default value in the "Customization Form Display Options" tab of the report.
    In the Report add the following PL/SQL Code....
    --Location:      Additional PL/SQL Code
    --Attribute:     ... after displaying the header
    declare
    l_store portal30.wwsto_api_session;
    l_param_value varchar2(4);
    begin
    --(#2)TStudy is the parameter name passed through the URL and the name of the bind variable in the SQL Command
    l_param_value := portal30.wwv_name_value.get_string(l_arg_names,
    l_arg_values, 'Tstudy','',1);
    --(#1) Add Link to the Reports Customization Form
    htp.p ('<CENTER>');
    htp.p('<font class=portletheading2> CUSTOMIZE</font>');
    htp.p ('</CENTER>');
    htp.br;
    --(#3)Store Parameter Value sent to the bind variable
    l_store := portal30.wwsto_api_session.load_session ('MYPORTAL', 'MYReport');
    l_store.set_attribute ('PValue', l_param_value);
    l_store.save_session;
    END;
    --(#4) Default Value in "Customization Form Display Options" for TStudy
    #portal30.wwsto_api_session.load_session('MYPORTAL', 'MYReport').get_attribute_as_varchar2('PValue')
    ?????My Last Question - How do I hide the prompt for the bind variable. I don't want the user to change this value after I went to such trouble to set it???????
    Thanks again,

  • Customization forms display message Query options

    Is there any way to eliminate or change the message 'Query Options' in a report customization form?

    Query Options will appear in customization form if you have any bind variable set in the component's design time.
    If u dont want to have any query options,
    you can suppress them by redesigning the component without any bind variables.

  • Customization form at top of screen populate report results at bottom of screen????

    I'm not sure that I was clear on my other question.
    Is it possible to develop a customization form and its report on the same page?
    Here is the scenario. We want the customization form on the top of the Portal page, and then we want the results of the query form (the report results) to populate in the bottom of the Portal page. The customer desires this so they can still see what information they queried on to get the specified report results.
    Does anyone know a way to do this or has anyone successfully developed it?

  • Dependant LOVs on Customization form of a report

    Portal Version: 3.0.9.8.0
    Database Version: 8.1.7.3
    Hi
    Our problem is that we've created a report component which includes two bind variables. These bind variables are chosen on the customization form through LOVs. The second LOV needs to be dependant on the first. Here's the code of the report and LOVs:
    REPORT
    select * from SHARE_DATA A, SHARE_INSTRUMENTS B, COMPANIES C, INDUSTRIES D
    where D.SYSTEM_ID = :Industry
    and C.SYSTEM_ID = :Company
    and C.SYSTEM_ID = A.CPY_SYSTEM_ID
    and A.SIN_SYSTEM_ID = B.SYSTEM_ID
    and C.IND_SYSTEM_ID = D.SYSTEM_ID
    where bind variables :Industry and :Company are linked to the following LOVs
    LOV_INDUSTRIES
    select (INDUSTRY_NAME||' '||SECTOR_NAME) industry_sector, (SYSTEM_ID)
    from INDUSTRIES
    order by industry_sector
    LOV_COMPANIES
    select A.NAME name, A.SYSTEM_ID
    from COMPANIES A
    where IND_SYSTEM_ID = :Industry
    order by name
    LOV_COMPANIES is dependant on LOV_INDUSTRIES.
    We receive the following error message when opening up the customization form:
    COMBOBOX LOV ERROR:
    LOV: "APP_ACIA.LOV_COMPANIES"
    Parse Message: Parse as pre-set global: "ACIA".
    Find Message: LOV is of type DYNAMIC (LOV based on SQL query).
    Query: "select A.NAME name, A.SYSTEM_ID from COMPANIES A where IND_SYSTEM_ID = :Industry order by name "
    wwpre_utl.get_path_id: The preference path does not exist: ORACLE.WEBVIEW.PARAMETERS.1088240437

    Hi,
    The error is thrown because the lov is not able to substitute the value for the bind variable. The substitution is not happening
    because depandant lovs are not supported in Portal Reports.

  • Customization Form at top populate Report Results at Bottom of Page??

    The customization form portlet would need to pass the parameter(s) to the other portlet. You may want to check out the parameter passing portlet samples in the PDK. The Smart Web Services Portlets work in a similar way too.
    If you want end users to show what their previously set parameters were, the customization portlet should read the previously passed parameters (along with the report portlet) and show them.
    You may also consider building a report using the wizards. Components can take parameters very easily through the Portal 9.0.2 (Oracle9iAS v2) page parameters feature.

  • Use of report's customization form

    Can I add a report's customization form to a content area as an application component?
    I mean, I would like to use a customization form in a content area style (with the same nav bar, with the same banners and layout). It's a little inconvinience that all of my forms and reports are displayed in content area forms, except ones that need customization form.
    Any suggestion?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for the hint, because I have the same task to perform (display customization form first).
    I created a PL/SQL item, in Primary Item Attributes I included the PL/SQL code:
    begin
    PORTAL30.ARTICLE_SELECT_FORM.show_parms;
    end;
    In the PL/SQL Execute Options, I selected "Public (PORTAL30_PUBLIC)". The PL/SQL item works fine as long as I'm logged on as the PORTAL30 user. When I log on as an end-user, WWV-12600 appeares (insufficient privileges).
    What exactly do I have to grant - and where? Balaji said "grant execute on this package to public" - could you please tell me where and how to do this (on database level or within Portal)?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
