John,
1. Well, he is an extreme "joy" to work with. I'll admit that. Been in the managers office a few times.
2. In the mark up that I provided above, August was the month that was selected from the "Select Month" drop down list. Since the "Calendar" checkbox was not selected, that meant that they wanted the beginning of the current fiscal year, Nov-05, to the selected month, in that example, Aug-06.
I am taking care of the beginning and ending dates through date math. If you like I can provide that code too.
I hope that was clear.
Thanks,
Joe

  • Help building report layout

    Hello, 
    I have to alter a report layout on Reporting Services 2008 and after 2 and a half days trying I simply give up!
    It's impossible to make this layout in RS2008. It simply does not accept what I need to do. See layout bellow:
    Consumption Location X
    MU A | PartNo x | Part Description | Qty
             | PartNo y | Part Description | Qty
    MU B | PartNo q | Part Description | Qty
    MU C | PartNo n | Part Description | Qty
             | PartNo z | Part Description | Qty
             | PartNo s | Part Description | Qty
    --------------------Skip line-----------------
    Consumption Location Z
    MU G | PartNo t | Part Description | Qty
    --------------------Skip line-----------------
    This "Consumption Location" must be over the pieces of information and they are data from my query, so are the other columns. The 4 other columns must be grouped, so they can look as the first image, otherwise won't have the layout needed.
    Now I ask you: How can I do such thing?!
    I appreciate the help, and I'm sorry that I sounded mad. I'm really pissed off 'cause of this.
    Tks!

    I believe I have reproduced the layout you are looking for.
    I created a static dataset using sample data similar to what you have:
    I then added a table and the dataset to the above sample dataset. I added a parent group to the detail group (MU) and a parent group to MU (Consumption Location). These each added a group column. I deleted both of the new group columns without deleting the
    groups. I deleted the existing header row then added a Total row to the MU group > Before. I right-clicked the new total row and Inserted a row > Inside Group - Above. I added a 4th detail cell by right-clicking the middle column and choosing Insert
    Column (either left or right). Now I merged the 4 cells of the top total row together and did the same for the bottom total row.
    I populated the data as follows... bottom total row I added [Consumption Location]. In the 4 data cells from left to right... [MU], [PartNo], [Description], [Qty]. Last step is to edit the expression in the first detail cel. Instead of just displaying [MU]
    you want that for only the first record of the group so use the following expression instead: =IIf(Previous(Fields!MU.Value) = Fields!MU.Value, "", Fields!MU.Value)
    Add a little formatting to make it pretty and...
    The empty total row at the top I set the top, left and right border style to None. This gives you the empty line.

  • PLEASE HELP!  members deleted after refreshing, current report and report layout

    Hi ,
    First of all , before explain my issue, I read the note about March Microsoft update, and my symptoms aren't exactly similar but almost the same.
    And it appeared last week, so one month after the ms update.
    So, I opened my report, and I see that current report and report layout are greyed out,
    I try to refresh the report and some members in rows axis are deleted.
    I'm only  one to have this problem in my team.
    Is there anybody able to solve my issue please ?
    Thanks in advance
    Jonas
    P.S  sorry for my english.

    Hi Marco,
    First of all, sorry to reply long a time after you answer but I was so very busy with another things.
    In fact, It's was a mistake, It's sure that it's not about an update. My issue comes only when I save my report in a different server, When I'm in the  source server,  I select the target server with  "Select Another Connection" process And I save my report in the target server.
    After that,  lot of members are dissapeared in my row axis.
    I don't know why.

  • Help on Report Layout Variant.

    Hello,
    I have a requirement as stated below:
    I have a custom report and it displays say 15 fields. I have created a variant for it to display only 10 fields.
    Now, is there a Function Module or a report that will give me details of these 10 fields that I have chosen.
    Basically I want to know if there is a FM that gives details of a report layout variant by just passing the report name and the variant name etc?

  • Sales quote layout rows doubled in crystal report layout

    Dear All,

  • Crystal Report Layout asking for Login Info

    I have modified the Delivery Note Crystal Report Layout for Business One by clicking the Edit button on the Report and Layout Manager for Delivery Note (Items).  I then saved my modifications to a file.  Finally, I go into Business One and import the Layout for Delivery Note (Items).  When I preview the Layout it asks me for login information then continues to fail.  How dow I make it so I can print the Delivery without having to constantly log in?

    Hi Jeff,
    I recently had a similar problem on an 8.82 implementation, having contacted and spoken to SAP Support multiple times these suggested fixes worked:
    The request to login to the database when you open or print preview a Crystal
    report is a known issue. To resolve this, I recommend you go through our Root
    Cause Analysis (RCA) guide. Please see attac hed Note 1676353 on where to find
    this. There are four Cases in this guide (which contain a number of Influences)
    - please go through all Cases and Influences.
    We also tried the following:
    STEP 1:
    Influence 2: Case 2 is to clear all the data for login (e.g. sa and
    password - delete them) and then ticked 'Integrated Security#.
    - Influence
    3: #: Check the current datasource is to update connection.
    - Retest opening
    the system reports on a workstation.
    - If they are still reporting an error
    try the next step
    - STEP 2:
    - Change the datasource location of
    the report from OLE DB to SAP Business One type and leave the
    authentication
    information blank. Try running the report in Crystal, and then import to SAP.
    And also opened up the Crystal Report via the Edit button in SAP in Reports and Layouts Manager, we then clicked on the database connection and updated all the tables (even though they were the same) and these got the reports needed working. Speaking to SAP it is a known bug and they are releasing a hotfix to resolve it, but try explaining that to a customer !!!
    Hope these help.

  • How to add/create additional page in Crystal Report Layout SAP B1

    Hi,
    I wanna ask about How to add/create additional page in Crystal Report Layout SAP B1 ?
    I want when user print Purchase Order then on last page also print some page like Penalty Clause etc.
    Pls help me to find the solution.
    Br,
    Thomas Marsetyo

    Hi,
    In your report footer, set it to create a new page before it is printed (In 'Section Expert', select the Report Footer -> 'Paging' tab -> Check 'New Page Before' checkbox). Throw your Terms & Conditions into the Report Footer section.
    If you already have a Report Footer that you want to keep, just split the footer into two sections (Right-click the Report Footer section -> 'Insert Section Below') and follow the same procedure for the newly created section.

  • Number of Copies in Crystal Report Layout

    Hi all,
    Is it possible to show the number of copy in a Crystal Report layout?
    I mean: I am creating an invoice layout in Crystal Reports for SAP Business One 8.8.
    Customer wants to print always 3 copies, but with the word "Copy" in second and third document.
    I can set the number of printed copies but... is it possible to include a reference of what number of copy is every document?
    Sorry for any language mistake.
    Kind Regards,
    Toni Dorta

    Hi Toni,
    If the customer always prints  3 copies of the Invoice, here is what you could do. You could design your Crystal Report to always print 3 copies. That is, if your Invoice has 1 page, then design your Crystal Report to Print 3 pages every time. On the 2nd and 3rd page, you include the word "Copy" to indicate that they are copies.
    Once you have modified the report, change the No: of Printed copies to 1. This when the customer prints the report, it will always print 3 copies of the report and have the word "Copy" on the 2nd and 3rd invoices.
    Hope this helps.

  • Report print attributes - custom report layout

    Hi there,
    I've looked for this information in the web and in this forum without luck so far...
    We have here BI Publisher and I use the "Enable Report Printing" option in a traditional report in Apex 4.0.2. That works great.
    But instead of using the "Default Report Layout", I want to use a custom one based on a RTF file. However I have no idea what the data XML looks like in order to build a custom layout.
    To be clear: if you go to Shared Components > Report Queries, you have a Download XML Data option so you can build your report layout based on the XML structure. For instance, you can use <?for-each:ROWSET1_ROW?>, <?COLUMN_NAME?> etc
    Any ideas about what that XML structure is for a traditional report?
    Thanks
    Luis

    Found it: change temporarily the output format to XML and download the report. The XML structure is all there. Very helpful to know that all page items are included in the XML as well. It would be good to have this functionality detailed somewhere in the Apex documentation.
    What I still need to know is how to access the substitution strings below in my RTF (NOT XSL-FO) template:
    Select Default Report Layout to use the built-in generic report layout.
    To use a custom generic report layout, select it from the list.
    You can use the following substitution strings when building custom XSL-FO report layouts:
    #PAGE_HEADER#
    #PAGE_HEADERFONT_COLOR#
    #PAGE_HEADER_FONT_FAMILY#
    ...Any ideas?

  • Attribute "Report Layout" is missing in the "Print Attributes" tab for IR

    Hallo,
    The attribute “Report Layout” is missing in the “Print Attributes” tab for an interactive report?
    How to alter the report layout (xsl-fo) of an interactive report?
    Has someone any idea where to configure this?
    Btw, for the "classic" SQL Report the XSL-FO "Report Layout" can be cahnged in "Print Attributes" and this works fine for me. But I want to change the xsl-fo for the interactive report.
    "If you do not select a report layout, a default XSL-FO layout is used. The default XSL-FO layout is always used for rendering Interactive Report regions. ... Unlike classic reports, the Interactive Report Print Attributes can only utilize the default XSL-FO layout and is initiated from the Report Attributes, Download section rather than directly from this screen. Once configured, these attributes only apply only to the current region and cannot be used outside the context of the region."
    http://apex.oracle.com/i/doc/bldapp_rpt_print.htm
    How can the "default XSL-FO layout" be changed?
    Changing is necessary because the Apache FOP 1.0 reports the following error (for the transmitted default XSL-FO):
    "fo:simple-page-master", "fo:region-body" must be declared before "fo:region-before"
    http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/#fo_region-before
    The default report layout is not saved in:
    select * from APEX_040000.WWV_FLOW_REPORT_LAYOUTS
    Thx, Willi

    I've found two workaround for getting Apache FOP 1.0 to work with Oracle Apex 4.0 for PDF printing of interactive reports:
    1, Use an application process to set your custom layout for interactive reports:
    [ ] grant all on APEX_040000.WWV_RENDER_REPORT3 to {YOUR_SCHEMA_NAME};
    [ ] Create an Application Process e.g. "Custom Report Layout" with constraint for request 'PDF' and Process Text:
    declare
    v_xsl varchar2(32767);
    begin
    v_xsl := '<?xml version = ''1.0'' encoding = ''utf-8''?>
    <xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
      <fo:region-body region-name="region-body" margin-top="54.0pt" margin-bottom="54.0pt"/>
      <fo:region-before region-name="region-header" extent="54.0pt"/>
    </xsl:stylesheet>';
    APEX_040000.WWV_RENDER_REPORT3.g_prn_template := v_xsl;
    end;2, If you have some knowlege in Java change the sequnce of the the nodes in the apex_fop.jsp (or servlet), ie. changing the xsl before you use it for transformation.
    The code depends on the solution you are using to parse the xsl string.
    Hope this may help someone,
    Willi

  • 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..

  • Can't see Report Layout in IE

    Hi All,
    When i am executing the report in report designer, the report is executing but cant see the layout of the report in IE . I can see all tools and options except report layout at portal and even i m not finding any error msg also. plz help in this regards.
    Regards,
    Kaushik

    Hi Kaushik,
    1) Are you facing the same problem with any other reports you format on report designer ?
    What changes have you made to your report output?
    Report Designer is a new feature of BI 7.0 and I know only the theory of it. You said you have checked with WAD..have you tried using this report which is having problem in WAD as 'Report Web item'?
    There might be a setting that you need to do in report desginer or there is some additional installation to be done in order to support Report Designer (remember this is a new feature so even Basis or Protal teams are new to it!)
    See these two items from help.sap,
    4. Executing the Report
    You execute the report in the portal (Web). The report is displayed in the standard Web template for reports. You can set the standard Web template for reports in Customizing for the standard Web templates at SAP NetWeaver ® Business Intelligence ® Reporting-Relevant Settings ®BEx Web ®Set Standard Web Templates ® Enterprise Report.
    You can also create a print version of the report directly in the Report Designer. The report is converted into a PDF document, which you can then print.
    5. Publishing the Report
    You can publish reports in BI roles or as iViews in the portal.
    You can also call the BEx Broadcaster from the Report Designer and broadcast reports. More information: Functions of the BEx Broadcaster
    Also see this.
    Use
    When you display a report in the portal (Web), it is automatically embedded in the standard Web template for reports. The report is displayed in a table on the Web. In addition, a date in the upper area of the Web template indicates how current the data is. Using the standard pushbuttons provided, Information, Send, and Print Version, and the link Filter, you can access the most common functions for navigating in and further editing your report.
    Integration
    When you have created and saved a report in the Report Designer, choose  (Execute): The report is displayed automatically in the portal using the standard Web template for reports.  
    From a technical perspective, the standard Web template for reports is based on the 0REPORT_DEFAULT_TEMPLATE Web template. This Web template is set as the default for displaying reports from the Report Designer in the SAP Customizing Implementation Guide under SAP NetWeaver ® Business Intelligence ® Reporting-Relevant Settings ® BEx Web ® Set Standard Web Templates ® Enterprise Report. The standard Web template contains three pushbuttons, Information, Send and Print Version, and the link Filter to call the filter pane.
    You can copy this Web template to make changes and set it as your new standard Web template for reports in the IMG. Note that to activate the changes in the SAP Reference IMG, you must start the J2EE Engine.
    Here is the link.
