REPORT LAYOUT QUESTION

What is the best method of adding "space" between columns of my reports. When I create my reports, the data is often too close together, making the report hard to read. I would like to add white space between my columns.
Mark

There are a couple of ways. In the part of the builder where you can change the column name, you can add the &nbsp html code for space. For example, if I have a column called EMPLOYEE_NAME, I can change it to Employee&nbsp&nbsp
You can also add html tags in there too.
If you are using a "Custom" report, you can go to the part of the builder where you can edit the html tags. You should see something like <#BLAH.LABEL#>. You can just add a space there in between <TD> and </TD>.

  • Custom report layout question...can't find any answers anywhere

    I am trying to build a report in Portal, using the custom report layout. The report displays like so, before I do any customization:
    COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    where COLUMN1 is the same value, always per report; COLUMN2 and COLUMN3 vary.
    What I want is:
    COLUMN1
    COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    In the report layout editor, Body section, this is what I see:
    <TD ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN1.FIELD#></TD>
    <TD ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN2.FIELD#></TD>
    <TD ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN3.FIELD#></TD>
    so #COLUMN1.FIELD# must be some kind of array, but I am not finding any documentation anywhere on how to reference the individual values. All I need is the very first value of the COLUMN1 variable. Once I have that value, I can put it where I need it, but I can't get at that value, just the array.
    I have searched portal center, the app server documentation, html documentation. I have googled everything I could think of, but came up with nothing. I found a similar question on this forum, but no one responded with an answer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Helen,
    The best way for your case is to use a content folder and customize it whichever way you like.
    however, your question is about reports. the problem in reports is this that you have to use just one single query and the layout of the results of this query are displayed in a peculiar way.
    anyway. something similar but not exactly the same as what you wanted do is the following.
    use a query like the following: (with a union in between)
    SELECT COLUMN1,NULL , NULL ,NULL ,NULL
    FROM my_source_table
    WHERE myCriteria LIKE 'SoAndSo%'
    UNION
    SELECT NULL,COLUMN2 , COLUMN3, COLUMN4, COLUMN5
    FROM my_source_table
    WHERE myCriteria LIKE 'SoAndSo%'
    ---------- Now, have the following codes in the layout segments:
    <!--- header --->
    <table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" width="20%" align="center">
    <!--- body --->
    <tr align="center">
    <td><table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" width="30%" align="center">
    <tr align="center">
    <TH><#COLUMN1.FIELD#></TH>
    </tr>
    </table>
    </td>
    <TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN2.FIELD#></TD>
    <TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN3.FIELD#></TD>
    <TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN4.FIELD#></TD>
    <TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN5.FIELD#></TD>
    </tr>
    <!--- footer --->
    <TR><TD></TD></TR>
    this should produce a report with a table structure (you may see the whole if you give BORDER="1" in the main table tag). Within this table, the first column of the first row should be showing top-leftmost column value once (COLUMN1 value) and then the next rows would show last four column values as a table block on the right-bottom part.

  • Report layout question for 6i

    I'm using reports 6i and have what I think is a simple report requirement but I'm unable to set the properties to get it to report correctly...
    I have a report where I would like to print one record per page (essentially a form letter). The page is driven by one large table that is filled prior to the report being executed and has a large number of columns.
    There are essentially two sections - the top is a header with a lot of detailed information, and the bottom is three large "text boxes". These boxes can have up to 2000 characters each. What I would like to do is have the boxes print AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, without causing output to be pushed to another page.
    I don't want FIXED because in some cases, two of the areas may be small, but the last area (text box) large, and then it won't print.
    I tried CONTRACT, but then the text boxes appeared to grow no bigger than the box on the screen, but would be rendered in as many pages as required to print the report. Also, with CONTRACT, it appeared that if the text required less space than the box for the field, that the next two items would not be "moved up" unless I placed an anchor between them. I thought implicit anchors would move them up if I checked "keep with anchoring object".
    I tried expand and variable and had the same problem with multiple pages.
    What is the solution for this?
    For a test case, I modified DEPT and increased with LOC and DNAME columns to varchar2(4000), and put 2943 and 3839 characters in each respectively. When I tried each of the above options in a simple "form-like" report, it behaved similarly.
    I've also tried drawing a frame around all three boxes and making its vertical elasticity FIXED and setting PAGE PROTECT, but that did not prevent it from rendering on other pages.
    If you need any additional information, I'm eager to provide it. This is driving me nuts!!

    Hi,
    So you want to print as much as possible on a page, and do not want it to overflow to other pages.
    Well, I'm not sure if a solution other than FIXED or CONTRACT elasticity is possible.
    If you create a frame round all boxes, and make it fixed width, a new instance of the frame will start on the next page.
    If you set elasticity variable / expand, this will not prevent the boxes to overflow to following pages.
    You should be able to achieve what you need by setting elasticity to FIXED / CONTRACT. In case you choose contract, you need to use anchors. By the way, elasticity contract should not allow the text to overflow to subsequent pages, but make sure you have set the elasticity on the text box, and not on the frame.

  • Question about reports layout

    Hi ,
    I have a quick question about report Layout.
    I have created a report in 6i. Now if I want to change my
    select statement and add new table to select from , it just
    restructures my report layout again and set that to Default One.
    Is there any way where I can set my Own layout as Default for
    that particular Report ?
    I would really appreciate any feedback.
    Thanks
    Vidya

    Try to give it alias names to the columns . Then when you
    change the table your are selecting from . The layout should
    not change.

  • Custom Report Layout with mutliple child tables

    I am trying to create a custom report layout (using Bi Publisher) where I have parent data (multiple jobs on a page) and several child tables for each job (JobDays and JobStops) and several child tables for JobDays (JobDayProviders, JobDayCrew). On the apex screen, I have a join on Jobs and JobDays and I am using functions to string each child row value for JobDayProviders and JobDayCrew together and putting a <br> in between so that they will format on separate lines within a cell. It works fine on the screen but when trying to print to pdf, it ignores these line breaks. I have also tried using <br></br> (saw an article that said just use HTML in bi pulisher) which puts two lines in between each value on the screen and is still ignored on the pdf.
    for example:
    Table hierarchy:
    Jobs table
    Job Stops
    Job Days
    Job Day Service Providers
    Job Day Crew
    Report Layout per job (will have mutlipe jobs to print, just printing 1 day per job):
    Jobs.col1 JobStops.row1 JobDay.col1 JobDayProviders.row1 JobDayCrew.r1
    JobStops.row2 JobDayProviders.row2 JobDayCrew.r2
    JobDayProviders.row3
    Thanks,
    Linda
    First, is there a way to get bi publisher to recognize the line breaks? If not, what is the best way to create a custom report for this scenario? I tried to create a report query with mutliple queries, but cannot determine how to link the child queries to the paren query. I have seen an example where a button is pressed to print one parent row and the id of that row is saved and referenced as a parameter in each of the queries, but if printing mutliple parents on a report, how would I link the child queries to the parent query?

  • 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.

  • Report Builder Question - OA AR Aging - and a general question

    I'm sure this is the wrong forum for this question, but I thought there might be someone here who might be using Oracle Applications and Report Builder who'd be kind enough to help me out.
    We've recently implemented Oracle Applications 11.5.10 and I have to use report builder to change the Accounts Receiveable Aging (7 bucket) to a 5 bucket report. I've already made some changes to the seeded "ARXAGMW.rdf" report, but I'm not a big Oracle Reports guy. I've stumbled through making some changes in various other reports. But this one is just plain nasty! :)
    I was thinking that I could simply add buckets 6 & 7 to bucket 5, then just hide or delete the 6 & 7 buckets. But I'm not sure where to even start. Any help with this would GUARANTEE a Christmas or other holiday card this year! :)
    I really want to keep this simple as possible, so any help would be very....helpful. :)
    Oh, my general question is: Are there any resouces/books for Oracle Reports (Report Builder)? I feel so lost trying to modify existing reports, let alone creating new ones.
    Thanks again!
    Steve

    Hi Steve,
    I am working on the 7-bucket aging report and i want to add a new field in data model.
    As the query is build dynamically, i have modified the function BUILD_CUSTOMER_SELECT to meet my requirements.
    But the problem is that in the data model, the field is not present in my Grouping. and if I try to add the field in the Data Model query (Q_ Customer) section,
    i get the following error: ORA-01789: query block has incorrect number of result columns.
    The query is as shown below:
    select rpad('a',50,'-') short_cust_name,

  • Apex 3.1. Interactive Report. Questions and Problems.

    Hello!
    First of all I'd like to say Interactive Report is a really really brilliant feature, it covers exactly that points which we were missing in previous releases of Apex. Only this single feature makes Apex 3.1 release most significant for us since may be HTML DB 1.6. So much much thanks!
    So I have some questions about Interactive Report (IR):
    1) About "Save Report" feature. It is possible there to save own version of report layout or overwright the default settings. There is also possibility to completelly disable this function. So the question is it possible to disable only the ability to overwright the default report but give the ability to save own reports. It would be reasonable since too smart or too dum users can break the default layout of report and break the work for other users which don't use this function at all. At the same time the possibility to save own reports
    is absolutelly perfect
    2) Search. I'm from Germany and we have some national non-english symbols. The IR can't perform seach correctly if we use words with such symbols. Example word "Bestätigt" is interpreted by IR as "Bestätigt". At the same time the words are correctly displayed in reports and in interface. We have correct NLS_LANG, we have imported the lang_de.sql , and our own self-made search on simple reports works ok. What's to do?
    3) Charts in IR. Is there some data volume limits for Chart in IR ? sometimes we get the message "Loading XML...100%" during chart rendering and then happens nothing. In log file of Apache there is no any error messages...
    Thanks in advance,
    Alex

    Hi Alex,
    Glad to hear you're putting interactive reports to use, we put in a lot of time trying to get them right (at least for their first release).
    1) The "Save As Default Report Settings" option is only available for Developers, so you can only see it if you already see the developer toolbar at the bottom of the page. Standard end-users can't see this, so they can't save over your default report settings.
    2) That's right, the character set of the DAD needs to be AL32UTF8.
    3) A maximum of 1000 chart points will be returned, but you should not get this error. Can you describe the columns you are charting and the chart settings?

    Hello mwallace,
    The behavior you are seeing is probably due to one of the VIs being added as a support file instead of a dynamic VI. When adding a file as a dynamic VI, Application builder will ensure that all subVIs are included.
    The following knowledgebase examples this issue in some more detail.
    Error 7 When Building Applications and DLLs That Use the LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit
    Please let me know if you have any questions.

  • Report Layouts in APEX 3.0

    Hello,
    i am interested in the report layouts in the new apex 3.0 version.
    Does anybody have experiences with that?
    Is it true, that I can edit the xml file only with a licensed version of XML publisher and not the desktop version?
    By the way is ther a users guide for apex 3.0 in which the report layout section is described?
    Thank you,
    Tim

    Hello Tim,
    First, you can experience APEX 3 your self, registering to the evaluation instance.
    There isn't yet a proper documentation to the new version, and even some of the internal help screens are not available yet. Still, there are several threads in this forum about the new PDF native support, that can help you understand the principles. Search the forum using the keyword "PDF" and user name "Marc Sewtz". These threads will answer the rest of your questions.
    Regards,
    Arie.

  • Date Parameters displaying a day prior on Report Layout

    Hi,
    I am currently creating some reports using Oracle BI Publisher 11.1.1.6.2.
    The reports in question have a Start Date from Parameter and an End Date To Parameter.
    I also display the values for the parameters in the Report Layout which appears to display the values entered correctly in the Interactive Viewer, but looking at other outputs (i.e. HTML, Excel, PDF etc.) the value in the parameter field in the layout always displays a day prior to what has been entered.
    Has anyone come across this?
    Thanks in advance.

    This is an example of code:
    <?xdofx:substr(season_start_date,6,2)?>
    This would take the month out of the repository variable: season_start_date, in the format MM.
    (MM is on the 6th position, with a length of 2.)
