Report Header and Column Header Removal

Hi,
we wanted remove report headers and Column header in each downloaded report. we are planning on using the Report header specifiers while reading each line, specifiers like "Report Name:","Report Time:","Time Zone:","Report
Filter:", etc.,
Here the question is are these values changes in a given version for each report? OR is it better to go by using line numbers i.e say first 8 lines always represents Report Headers and Next line is always blank and 10th line is always Column Header?
Report Name: Budget Summary
Report Time: 1/18/2015
Time Zone: Various
Last Completed Available Day: N/A
Last Completed Available Hour: N/A
Report Aggregation: Day
Report Filter:
Rows: 615
Date Account number
Account name Campaign name
Currency code
Thanks

Good question. Yes the reports all generally follow the pattern you described. I have reached out to the feature team, and will follow up with the suggested best practice.

How to read a file which has header and without header

Hi,
I have a file to file scenario wherein there are txt files in the source system, some of which has header and some without header.
How does the sender adapter dynamically identify a file with header and without header.
I knew that File content Conversion in the sender adapter with "Recordsets per message = 1" can read the header. But how to handle dynamically.
Thanks in advance for suggestions and advice.
Regards.
Praveen

Hi,
Let me give a more clear picture:-
One of my file which has header and the corresponding values is listed hereunder:
PERNR;KID;PNALT;NACHN;NAME2;VORNA;TITEL;TITL2 and so on.....
;1200;1200;Angus;; and so on.........
Other file which has no header but only values in it:-
1200;1200;;Werner;Angus and so on.......
The structure remains same for all the files. The only difference is that some of the file has header in it and some without header. The Message Type is mentioned hereunder:-
DT_LegacyEmployee (Category - Complex Type)
     Employees (Category - Element, Occurence - 1)
          Employee (Categroy - Element, Type - DT_LegacyEmployee_Row, Occurence - 0...unbounded)
               PERNR
               KID
               PNALT
               NACHN
               NAME2 and so on......
I read the file in record row. The file conversion parameters in the file sender adapter are mentioned hereunder:-
Document Name - MT_LegacyEmployee
Document Namespace - http://abc.com/xi
Recordset Name - Employees
Rescordset Structure - Employee,*
Recordsets per Message - 1
Key Field Type - String (Case Sensitive)
Employee.fieldSeparator - ;
Employee.endSeparator - 'nl'
Employee.fieldNames - PERNR,KID,PNALT,NACHN,NAME2,VORNA,TITEL,TITL2 and so on........
How do we dynamically identify whether the file has header or not. Even if the file has header or without header, the file needs to be picked and transferred to the target system. Kindly clarify.
Regards.

Row and column heading in cross tab report

Hi Gurus,
Is it possible to leave column headings and row headings in a crosstab report blank?
Pooja

Hi,
You could either suppress the Column Headings by unchecking
Tools-->Options-->Column Heading or Making the background color and the font color of the cell to be same ( gray ), thereby making it invisible, though it is actually there.

Lock rows and columns header in a table view report. It is possible?

hi,
I have a Dashboard that displays a report in "Table View" with many rows and columns.
Is it possible to set a lock on the rows and columns like Excel?
This would have blocked such headers that contain attributes and measures and to browse the report (eg with a scroll bar) had always viewed the headers.
Can you help me?
Thanks

SET and COLUMN are SQL*Plus client commands, not part of the SQL language, and thus they cannot be used in APEX report queries. Consult the APEX documentation for information on creating reports. If you are unfamiliar with APEX, start with the 2 Day Developer's Guide tutorial, which covers creating APEX reports.

Report painter - Choosing column heading text

Hi SDN
I'm having a specific problem with getting the right column heading text into my G/L report painter report created in FGI2/FGI5. In the report painter form I have created the three texts for my column (short, medium and long text). In order for the heading to be meaningful I need the report to show the medium or long text. This is also the case when I run the report as object type Object list. Here the medium text is displayed. However, when I run the report as a Classic drilldown report or a Graphical report output the short column heading text is shown.
Now, I know from running the standard report 0SAPBLNCE-01 in FGI0 that it is possible to have the long column header text shown in the report, so I'm not willing to give up. But can any of you guys help me on how to make the report show the correct text?
Kind rgds
Steen Koefoed

Hi Anna and thanks for your suggestion. I have tried changing the header text length in the form as you suggested, but it does not seem to affect the display in neither of the three output types of the report. I assume that there must be a way to control the text header length specifically for each of the three output types. But how....

XML Publisher Arabic Report Display and missing header problem

Hi All
We are in apps. 11.5.9 with English and Arabic language support.Even though we have all our data and reports in English we are in need of an Arabic Invoice report.
Since Titles cannot be typed in oracle report builder we decided to build the report in Xml Publisher.
Every thing is done to run the report in xml publisher but we face two probles in the final xml output.
Problem1. Header and footer are not displaying in the report.
Problem2. Arabic characters are not displaying properly in the report.
Here what ever titles we gave in Arabic are displaying good.
If I save the xml file and load it in the templete and view output shows the correct arabic wordings.
But when during taking the output directly from apps. then the problem comes. The Arabic fonts are not dispaying correctly.
Any Idea about this.
If any one come across this issue please mail me at [email protected]
Habeeb

Try to load the arabic fonts into XML Publisher Admin. Check Tim's blog for more info (http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2006/06/how_to_install_a_font_using_xm.html)

Hyperion Reports - Row and Column templates

Sorry if this may be a bit basic but we are new to Hyperionreports. Currently we are going through a redesign process and washoping to get some viewpoints on the benefits of using row andcolumn templates within reports. I am looking at this option butgetting frustrated by the limitations around formatting, etc Are there any views out there on the preferred options. We havea particular style in design we need to include which is becomingdifficult when we use row and column templates

it may also worth cross checking below form doc:
a.If your row and column template contains formulas with external references (for
example, to cells outside of the selected row and column template), you are prompted
to modify those formulas before saving the row or column template.
Note: You can save a row and column template that contains cell formulas, as these can
be discarded. For more information, see step 9.c on page 115.
b. If a secondary database connection was specified within the row and column template,
a dialog box displays prompting you to continue saving the template. If you save the
template, the secondary database connection you specified in the row and column
template is discarded. The primary database connection is then used for the row and
column template.
c. If unsupported properties are found, an Information dialog box presents a list of
properties to discard before saving the template. For example, if the row and column
template contains a cell formula, you can choose to save the template without the
formula or not save the template.

Print report parameter and column headers PDF format from Discoverer Viewer

Hi,
From Discoverer Viewer 4i I'm presently using the printer friendly version to print my workbooks. I would like to know if their is a way to include report parameters and print column headers on every page.
I would appreciate any pointers or workarounds to this issue at the earliest.
Thanks

Hi T
I don't think this is possible with 4i.
Have you considered upgrading to 10g R2?
Best wishes

MSS Time sheet appearing to reporting Manager and Unit Head

Hello Experts,
We are implementing MSS in project and we are facing a problem:
- We have Org structure
Unit Head (chief Position)
^
Asst Manager (not a chief postion) reports to Unit Head
^
Associates (not a chief postion) reports to Asst manager
Now when employees goes and submits his time sheet it appears correctly to Asst Manager in MSS Time sheet Approval by Line Manager.
Now the problem is that Associate's time sheet is also appearing to Unit Head. Incase Unit head selects it and approve, it will get approved which is incorrect. The Associates time sheet should only appear to Asst Manager not to Unit Head.
Please help us how we can resolve this problem.
thanks
venkat

As per your scenrio time sheet approval only for one level only. In workflow try to use logic A002 relation ship (Reports to). That means employees reporting manager.
Discuss the same with your workflow consultant they will help you. Whoever is submit time sheet & it will go to employee line manager using A002 Relation ship.
