Report: max/avg of column. Display-question

Hi all,
In my application there is a sql query-report. The sql query is dynamic so the user of my application can change what column should be displayed and what filter should be used. Now I want to add an avg/max function to arrange the data of the table a littlebit more clearly and the user should decide what/howmuch columns should be used for the average/max calculation.
My question is:
I want to show the value of the calculation in an extra field right under the corresponding column. Is there a way to show the value in one field without add a whole row? And if not what could be a good approach to display this in a clear structure?
Thanks in advance
Markus

Hello,
In your case, we can use column visibility to display specific values in the report.
Suppose we have a dataset (DataSet1) with Amount, Month fields in your report. And we have a parameter (month). Please refer to the steps below:
Add a matrix in the report body.
Add [Month] field in the Columns text box, [Amount] field in the Data text box.
Right click the column, select Column Visibility.
Select “Show or hide based on an expression” option, and type expression below:
=IIF(Fields!Month.Value>Parameters!month.Value Or
Fields!Month.Value<(Parameters!month.Value-2),True,False)
5.After the [Amount] text box, type following expression in the text box to calculate the average value.
=Sum(IIF(Fields!Month.Value>Parameters!month.Value Or
Fields!Month.Value<(Parameters!month.Value-2),0,Fields!Amount.Value))/3
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Max number of columns in a Webi report

In a worst-case scenario test, I requested about 1700 columns in a Webi report, but only a little more than 300 appeared in the SQL; a TOAD request for the same 1700 columns was successful. Is there an upper limit for the number of objects that can appear in a Webi report? Is there a parameter that could increase the limit?

My eyes read the first half and my brian assumed the second half.
I dont think there is a limitaion on the number of objects that a WebI report can pull.
The only limitation I know of is the maximum number of column that you can display in the report panel; the max number is 100,000.
With the limit on the max number of column diplay in a WebI report can be translated into the max number of columns in the query panel.

Control break on column displayed as link in Interactive Report

Hi,
If someone can help me, i'd greatly appreciate it!
I created an interactive report - one of the columns has a link attached to url specified in the Report Attributes/ link section.
When I use the control break feature in the gear icon, the report seems to be grouped by the url/link and not by the actual column value.
When I remove the link from the column - all is fine and the break does work.
This column must get displayed as a link. Is there any workaround for this problem?
Thanks,
Hindy

Hi,
I don't know the details of the procedure, but you would have something like:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE "print_model_change"
v_acctnum NUMBER,
v_model VARCHAR2,
v_rrcode NUMBER
AS
BEGIN
.. DO SOMETHING WITH v_acctnum, v_model, v_rrcode
END;This needs to be updated to something like:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE "print_model_change"
v_manager_model NUMBER
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE
    v_acctnum NUMBER;
    v_model VARCHAR2;
    v_rrcode NUMBER;
BEGIN
    SELECT ACCTNUM, MODEL, RRCODE
    INTO v_acctnum, v_model, v_rrcode
    FROM .. your report's FROM statement plus ..
    WHERE MANAGER_MODEL = v_manager_model;
    .. DO SOMETHING WITH v_acctnum, v_model, v_rrcode
END;
END;and followed by:
GRANT EXECUTE ON "print_model_change" TO PUBLICto make it available
The existing code receives all the data it would need (presumably). The updated code receives the manager_model value and, using the same FROM clause that you have for your report PLUS a WHERE clause (or, if you are using a WHERE clause in your report, change this to AND), finds the data that it needs for v_acctnum etc. After it has that data, the rest of the existing code can be used unchanged.

Conditional column display in report using column substitution string

Hi everone,
I was wondering if it's possible to display a column conditionally, based on a values in another column of the same report.
Can you use the column substitution strings or does the condition strictly require SQL, PL/SQL
or page item values?
kind regards,
Cleo

I dont think we can add a condition to display the column in a report based on the other column of the same report,
Just add a (CASE WHEN <your condition satisfies> THEN column ELSE null END) in your report source for the column you want to display conditionally.

Hallo,
In the sense of Applicatin Express you have two Report Regions.
Both regions can be dependent on a master item (e.g. SELECT ... WHERE MASTER_ID = :MASTER_ITEM)

To restrict the number of data columns displayed in BW Web report

Hi,
In the corresponding Bex query i am using 'Start Time' characteristic in the row. In the BW Web template i don't want the 'Start Time' to be displayed when i execute.
I tried to restrict the number of data columns displayed in the web item table properties but that did not help
Can i get some help
Thanks,

Hi Mala,
You can try out the following: Create a view on your query and in that view remove the Start Time char from the drilldown. Use this view as a data provider in the web template.
Hope this helps...

Report Row Height and Column Width

Hi,
I have a cell in a report (a description column) that causes the row height to become very large (when there is a lot of text in the description). I can make the column wider on the report attributes page, but there doesn't seem to be any place to influence the maximum height of a row on a report, short of modifying the template.
Adding style attributes (e.g. max-height:30px) to an element only affects the that the element resides in, not the table cell or row.
Displaying the column as a text area is a useful workaround. The downside is the border and scroll bars do waste a lot of screen real estate. Does there exist some other way of setting a limit on the height and/or width of a report, report column or report row?
Oh, and another question- how do make line breaks in this forum? There's no support for or [br].

Please reply to this thread, my customer is facing the same issue. He does not have issue with the excel and the pdf output but in the rtf output the table heght increases to accomadate the data.He want it to bevave in the same way as the pdf do.

Ajay

At max how many columns is advisable to create in a table/view

Hi All,
I have two transaction table from which i want to create a simple view or materialized view. But the number of columns is about 200. So i want to know at max how many columns is advisable from the performance point of view.
Even though i will create 200 columns in a view , for a perticular client installation i may not use all the columns.
one more thing i will never use 200 columns in the select statement . At a time i will use only 4/5 columns.
It may happen from this four column one column will be the 1st and 2nd column will be the 200th one.
I want to know how it affects the performance and in which scenario . Please help if any body knows or already faced this kind of scenario.
I am using oracle 10g .

thanks for ur reply .
We are going to use this view in a report , so if i will create it as simple view it will affect report performance. because the view script is too long ...so every time quring to a view will decrease the performance.
Are you asking me if it will? I think it probably won't but of course you have the means to test it to be sure, right?
As u said MV should be done with minimum possible column . what can be the maximum column in MV ..??It would be defined by the limits on:
* The maximum number of columns that a table can contain
* The size of the query needed to define the select statement
* Limitations on queries needed to maintain the data

HELP! SQL Query: Other ways to reorder column display?

I have a SQL query report with a large number of columns (users can hide/show columns as desired). It would be great if the column display order could be changed by changing the order of the columns in the SELECT list in the Report Definition, but that doesn't work -- it puts changed or added columns at the end regardless of the order in the SELECT list of the query.
Is there some other way to reorder the columns displayed without using the Report Attributes page? It's extremely tedious to move columns around using the up/down arrows which redisplays the page each time. Am I missing a way to change display order, or does anyone have a "trick" to do this? It's so painful....
When defining forms you can reoder columns by specifying a sequence number for each column. Just curious as to why reports were not done the same way, and are there any plans to address this in a future release?
Karen

Yes, reordering columns is extremely painful.
It is supposed to be much improved in the next version.
See
Re: Re-ordering columns on reports
Moving columns up/down in Report Attributes
See my example at
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=24317:141
Basically, let the users move columns around until they are blue in the face, provide a Save button to save the column order in a user preference and reorder the columns when the page reloads.
Or you can use Carl's PL/SQL shuttle as the widget to specify the columns shown and their order. The shuttle is at http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=11933:27
Hope this helps.

Verify if a report has a null column value with JavaScript ?

Hi,
I have report. User can add new rows through a form. Before the user leaves the application I would like to use JavaScript to check if a certain column has some null values. I built my JavaScript for the before logout and it's working properly, but I need to retrieve if that column has some null values, how can I do that ? This field isn't a mandatory one, but I would just like to alert the user.
Thank you.

You can also use a TRIM function in Answers. Go to the column in question, click on the fx button and then on the Function button. Click on String and you will see TrimLeading, TrimTrailing and TrimBoth. Use TrimTrailing on your column and you should be good to go.

Interactive Report Attributes: Missing a column?

This is for Application Express 3.2.1.00.12
I'm working on a report with the columns pulled in a SQL statement in the Region Definition section of the Interactive Report Attributes screen. We want to alter the column names so they are more user friendly, so on the Report Attributes tab, I'm looking for the column name we wish to alter, but it is not showing up. Now, in the final report, the column is visible with the header from the name of the column from the database, so the system is aware of the column and can display it, but for some reason we can't see it in the Report Attributes tab.
Why would a column be invisible or inaccessible in the Report Attributes tab? There are 100 columns displayed in the Report Attributes: Column Attributes section. Is that the reason I'm missing some columns; 100 is a hard column limit on that page?
Thanks in advance for all help you can provide.

Hi,
You are almost right place. You need click icon before 100th column name, order to go screen where you can edit column attributes.
In that screen right top is buttons (Cancle, Apply, < and >)

Interactive Report - Include Non-selected Column in Row Text Search

Hi,
We have an interactive report that contains many columns. NAME VARCHAR2(30), TYPE VARCHAR2(30) etc and DESCRIPTION VARCHAR2(4000).
Normally the DECRIPTION column would not be shown (avalilable for dispaly via 'Select Columns' but not selected), however we need the default Row Text Search (ie direct entry into the search field instead of creating a column filter) to search the DESCRIPTION field wether it is selected for display or not.
This will allow the user to enter a term that may be contained in the DESCRIPTION to find records without trying to display a 4000 character field in the report - which just looks horrible.
We are using ApEx 4.1.1.
Thanks,
Martin Figg

Hi Ray,
As I expected this has got us very close. We went with the code:
select
facility_id,
facility_name,
''||substr(facility_desc,0,50)||decode(sign(length( facility_desc)-50),1,' (More...)',NULL)||'' facility_desc,
equipment_id,
equipment_name,
''||substr(equipment_desc,0,50)||decode(sign(length( equipment_desc)-50),1,' (More...)',NULL)||'' equipment_desc,
from
rf_full_item_list_vwhich works well. The only issue is that when you download to csv you get the html tags etc as well. Put I am a lot closer to a solution than we were.
Thanks again.
Martin

SQL Report Viewer Web Part Not displaying Report

I have just completed updating an old report using report builder 3.0. I have added it to SharePoint Designer but have not replaced the old report file.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!
All I did was export the old report from sharepoint designer to my desktop. Then opened it with Report Builder 3.0- made changes to the report and saved it with a different name (for safety in case i break things) and then upload it back to the same place where
the old report was located using SP Designer. I then went back to the site in sharepoint that is displaying the old report, and changed the URL path in the SQL report viewer to the new report.
Now the SQL Report Viewer web part isn't showing anything (blank)

Dear All,
I have scenario to print more than 99 columns in alv report output. Currently when I am trying to do that I am getting a dump. From SDN I learn that we can display only 99 cols only.
