Report Formatting Conditions

I have a report based on a table that has 2 columns (start_time and end_time). I would like to change the background color
if the systime is between start_time and end_time. I don't see a way to specify multiple conditions in the formatiing options.
Any ideas?

You can specify multiple conditions, by default you get an option of entering four conditions, you can enter more by clicking on the more button.
Right now I don't think there is any way we can specify a sysdate or time for the formatting conditions like you need.

Using Sysdate in Reports Formatting Conditions

hi,
we want to create a portal report that highlights a row whose date column is today's date. in the formatting conditions tab page we've tried settin the value to sysdate and #sysdate. this results in the following error when you run the report ...
ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a number was expected
Error: Unable to execute query (WWV-10201)
This is a very valuable feature to have. Any ideas? Tx.

Hi,
This is not supported. You can #sysdate only in the customization parameter values. It is not allowed anywhere else.
Thanks,

SQL-based Reports: Formatting Conditions

I need to format a line based on comparing 2 columns to each other.
for example if col1 >= col2 then format
I only see a way to compare col1 to a static value. Is what I am trying to do possible and if so how?
Thanks in advance

Report with custom layout - formatting conditions

Hi,
There's a report with custom layout. What I need is to format some cells depending on the data they contain(like different background color). There's a tab named "Formatting Conditions" which should be meant for doing this and it works perfectly when report has tabular layout. But nothing happens in case of custom layout. Should this be done then in the "Report Layout Editor" and with Javascript? Portal version is 3.0.9.8.0.
Thanks in advance,
Madis

Hi,
Some condtions like background color do not work in custom mode reports. This is because in case of custom reports the table html is specified by the user and the report renderer has no control over it.
Hope this helps.

SQL Query (updateable report) Region - Conditionally Hide and Set Values

SQL Query (updateable report) Region - Conditionally Hide and Set Values
Outline of requirement :-
Master / Detail page with Detail updated on same page using SQL Query (updateable report).
The detail region has the following source
SELECT item_id,
       contract_id,
       CASE WHEN hardware_id IS NOT NULL THEN
               'HA'
            WHEN backup_dev_id IS NOT NULL THEN
               'BD'
            WHEN hardware_os_id IS NOT NULL THEN
               'HS'
       END item_type,
       hardware_id,
       backup_dev_id,
       hardware_os_id
FROM   "#OWNER#".support_items
WHERE contract_id = :P26_CONTRACT_IDThe table support_items implements arced relationships and has the following columns
CREATE TABLE SUPPORT_ITEMS
ITEM_ID         NUMBER                        NOT NULL,
CONTRACT_ID     NUMBER                        NOT NULL,
HARDWARE_ID     NUMBER,
BACKUP_DEV_ID   NUMBER,
HARDWARE_OS_ID NUMBER
)A check type constaint on support_items ensures that only one of the fk's is present.
      (    hardware_id    IS NOT NULL
       AND backup_dev_id IS NULL
       AND hardware_os_id IS NULL
OR    (    hardware_id    IS NULL
       AND backup_dev_id IS NOT NULL
       AND hardware_os_id IS NULL
OR    (    hardware_id    IS NULL
       AND backup_dev_id IS NULL
       AND hardware_os_id IS NOT NULL
      )    Hardware_Id is a FK to Hardware_Assets
Backup_dev_id is a FK to Backup_Devices
Hardware_os_id is a FK to Hardware_op_systems
The Tabular Form Element based on item_type column of SQL query is Displayed As Select List (based on LOV) referencing a named list of values which have the following properties
Display Value     Return Value
Hardware Asset    HA
Backup Device     BD
Computer System   HSThe Tabular Form Elements for the report attributes for hardware_id, backup_dev_id and hardware_os_id are all Displayed As Select List (Based on LOV).
What I want to do is only display the Select List for the FK depending on the value of the Select List on Item Type, e.g.
Item_Type is 'HA' then display Select List for hardware_id, do not display and set to NULL the Select Lists for backup_dev_id and hardware_os_id.
Item_Type is 'BB' then display Select List for backup_dev_id, do not display and set to NULL the Select Lists for hardware_id and hardware_os_id.
Item_Type is 'HS' then display Select List for hardware_os_id, do not display and set to NULL the Select Lists backup_dev_id and hardware_id.
There are properties on elements to conditionally display it but how do we reference the values of the SQL query Updateable region? they are not given a page item name?
Also on the Tabular For Elements there is an Edit tick against a report item - however when you go to the Column Attributes there is not a property with which you can control the Edit setting.
What's the best way of implementing this requirement in APEX 3.1?
Thanks.

Welcome to the forum: please read the FAQ and forum sticky threads (if you haven't done so already), and update your profile with a real handle instead of "user13515136".
When you have a problem you'll get a faster, more effective response by including as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should include:
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
<li>Theme
<li>Template(s)
<li>Region/item type(s) (making particular distinction as to whether a "report" is a standard report, an interactive report, or in fact an "updateable report" (i.e. a tabular form)
With APEX we're also fortunate to have a great resource in apex.oracle.com where we can reproduce and share problems. Reproducing things there is the best way to troubleshoot most issues, especially those relating to layout and visual formatting. If you expect a detailed answer then it's appropriate for you to take on a significant part of the effort by getting as far as possible with an example of the problem on apex.oracle.com before asking for assistance with specific issues, which we can then see at first hand.
I have a multi-row region that displays values and allows entries in a number of fields.Provide exact details of how this has been implemented. (An example on apex.oracle.com is always a good way to do this.)
I should like the fields to be conditional in that they do not permit entry, but still display, if certain conditions apply (e.g. older rows greyed out). Can this be done? Almost anything can be done, often in multiple ways. Which are appropriate may be dependent on a particular implementation, the skills available to implement it, and the effort you're willing to expend on it. Hence it's necessary to provide full details of what you've done so far...

Oracle Portal Report - Formatting Excel output

We are using Oracle Portal 10.1.4.1 and we are using the Locally built providers create new report function.
The report data itself is working as expected. You click the report it prompts to open the excel file and it opens.
We are attempting to find a way to better format what is passed to Excel.
When we add header and footer information in the "Additinal PL/SQL" boxes it shows up on the HTML version of the report, but this does not however show up in the excel version. The excel version seems to be pretty much a raw dump of whatever columns and rows you selected.
Is there a way to add a header or footer to what Oracle Portal outputs to excel?
Thanks for the help!

I remember seeing a Bug that formating conditions do not get saved for number and Date fields when sent to excel.
That might be the cause.
Thanx,
Chetan.

Hi Neetu,
Do you wish that at all customer site all concern involved in implemtation do the same work ?
I believe ERP is meant for single entry system, and it should be true for implementation also, why to invest man hours for the same task ?
I expect it standard reports should be released by SAP, so that speed of implementation improve, we have more nos. of satisfied customers.
customised reports is all together different and it is understood that it is needed to be developed after study the exact requirement.

Difference between pdf and html report format

Why HTML report printouts truncate from the right-end side, compare to the pdf report format ?, do i need to change anything
while running report through HTML format

The printing from html output is majorly affected by browser settings. Once you try to change the left and right margins in page setup before printing, I solved this problem in this way , it may work for you. Let me know if it works or if you overcome it by other ways.

The report format is:

The report format is:
<filename> <phase> <return code where appropriate>
here what is phase and return code where appropriate?
thanks
with regards

If you are talking about using the Report Generation Toolkit, the report format for Word reports is .doc format, and for Excel spreadsheets is .xls format. These are binary files whose format is proprietary to Microsoft. If you're talking about an HTML report, obviously the generated file is a .html file that is viewable in a standard text editor. And for Standard Reports, there is no file generation (they get sent straight to the printer).
Hope this helps,

Report format is not changing in IE

Hi All,
I am working with Report Designer. when i am executing the report, initially report is executing properly for the first time and givining define format. but if i am doing any change in report format in report designer the executed report do not capture the changes. the report generated on the web portal showing me the same output generated for the first time. if i am creating another copy of the same report by "SAVE AS" and then executing it, then again it is showing me the proper output for the first time only but it is not working if i am doing any changes in format.
Kindly guide for that.
Regards,
Kaushik

Hi Kaushik
maybe you've already solved your problem, otherwise here's a program which most probably would solver your problem:
report zicm_cache_invalidate_all.
call function 'ICM_CACHE_INVALIDATE_ALL'
exporting
    global              = 1
exceptions
    icm_op_failed       = 1
    icm_get_serv_failed = 2
    icm_no_http_service = 3
    others              = 4.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
message id sy-msgid type 'E' number sy-msgno
          with sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
endif.
Setting global to 0 would invalidate only local... It's the same like invalidating the cache thru SMICM

Talking about this would be a lot easier if you described what you were trying to model in these tables, and what the different entities are.

Shouldn't I need to have the extra seq(PK), then use check seq to group the data report to meet users' target format ? Please adviseIt depends on what your entities are. If you explain that, then perhaps I can give some advice about how to model them.
In general, every type of entity requires a separate table. It looks like xcert represents one kind of entity, uniquely identified by certno. I assume there is some other kind of entity, uniquely identified by checkno, and that you have a table for that which you haven't needed to show in this thread.
Are you saying that there's some other entity, that is uniquely identified by checkseq? If so, it probably needs a table of it's own.
Every table should have a primary key. I had assumed that checkseq only served as the primary key of the xcheck table. If it serves some other purpose, then yes, you would need another column.
Many-to-many relationships usually require a separate table. I was guessing that xcheck was intended to record a many-to-many realtionship between xcert and some other table. Guessing is not always the best way to solve problems. I think it would be better if you explained what you want to do, rather than have me guess at it.
So far, what you've shown is analagous to an order entry system. One kind of entity is customer, another is supplier. Say you're running a company that sells products from many suppliers to many customers. There is a many-to-many relationship between customers and suppliers. Any customer may buy from many suppliers; any supllier may sell to many cutomers. You may have an orders table that keeps track of that many-to-many relationship. You may also have another entity, salesman, that also has many-to-many relationships with customers and suppliers. Depending on what exactly you consider an "order", there are lots of different ways to model this. Can a single order involve many customers? Can a single order involve many suppliers? Can a single order involve many salesmen? If an order always involves one customer buying from one supplier using one salesman, then you may only need four tables. If the situation is more complicated, then you may need more tables.
