Report Name on Template

I wish to have the report name sent to the template so that at runtime the report name will show. I have created a parameter for this to be passed to, and put a field in the header of the template to accept the parameter: what I need to know is how do you send the name of the report which exists in the property palette under -Report -General Information - Name node to the field on the template so it shows at runtime.

hello,
with patch 4 there is a procedure called srw.get_report_name(v_name); that retuns the report-name.

Templates and Passing a Report Name

I need to create a template and have the report name passed on to that template, but I need a bit more detailed of an explanation then the following:
Create a user parameter on the template and then pass the report name to the parameter at run time.

Logic to select Report name based on User's input.

Hi Guru's
Good Morning!
I have a requirement to create a XMLPUBLISHER Report Whihc is Called as ITEM COUNT SUMMARY + ITEM COUNT DETAIL REPORT Following below
are my ParameterS
0.REPORT NAME
1.ORG
2.ORG COUNTRY
3.ITEM SELECTION
4.ORDER TYPE
5.STATUS
6.RECEIPT DATE FROM
7.RECEIPT DATE TO
8.TRANSIT DAYS
REPORT NAME: PARAMETER WILL LET THE USER to select the requrired Reports to be run.
ORG: is the Names of the SHIP FROM ORG
ORG COUNTRY: is a Dependent Parameter based on the ORG (i.e When a SHIP FROM ORG is Selected the ORG CHOICE Should have the CHoices for the selected ORG and when Nothing Selected from that ORG it should run for every ORG COUNTRY in that SHIP FROM ORG Currently we have two ORG COUNTRY PER SHIP FROM ORG say(USA, CANADA)
ITEM SELECTION: We need to Run this Report based on Item Selection ( The Logic should handle a total item selection whihc are comma seperated for upto 29
items)
ORDER TYPE : Types of Order Again this can be a List of Comma Seperated Values for order Types
STATUS: STatus should be Comma Seperated (ENTERED,WAVED,NOTWAVED,SHIPPED)
TRANSIT DAYS: Transit Days
RECEIPT DATE FROM: This is the Starting DATe range for the REport to be run
RECEIPT DATE TO: This is the END DATe range for the REport to be run.
The ITEM COUNT SUMMARY Report should allow the users to run the report 3 ways
1.ITEM COUNT RUN BY ORDER TYPE ( for all the STATUS)
2.ITME COUNT RUN BY STATUS ( FOR all the ORDER TYPES)
3.ITEM COUNT RUN BY TRANSIT DAYS
And My approach is I have three Queries Created for the above and in the DATA DEFINITION File
I have them Listed my DATA DEFININTION ( Sorry as my Query's GO More than 70+ LINES for Each Query I thought I will just paste the Order How i have arranged my queries in the Tempalte)

Now My Problem is How Do i Get a Logic to Let the Report Name Selection To be REferenced in the Data Definition file..
I would like to request you to Please help me out in arriving at a Solution for Implementing the Logic
When the USer selects ITEM COUNT SUMMARY BY ORDER TYPE I want "BY_ORDERTYPE" to be Executed and so on..
Is there a Way That I can Write in my Data definition file as
DECODE(:REPORT_NAME ,'ITEM COUNT SUMMARY BY ORDERTYPE', Run query for BY_ORDERTYPE,
,'ITEM COUNT SUMMARY BY STATUS', Run query for BY_STATUS,
,'ITEM COUNT SUMMARY BY TRANSIT DAYS', Run query for BY_TRANSITDAYS,run query for DETAIL REPORT);
Also My Item Description Contains Special Characters like Registered Symbol, Copyright Symbol How would I force my XML Parser to Still consider them as TEXT's
May I Directly Specify <?xdofx:DECODE :REPORT_NAME = 'ITEM COUNT SUMMARY BY ORDERTYPE' THEN BY_ORDERTYPE ?> in the DATA DEFINITION file , I think this is only allowed in RTF please Help,
Thanks

Thanks for the Reply sir,
When you say Write the Code, you are referring to the Package is that correct,unfortunately I am not implementing this via PL/SQL Package.
you mentioned that I can Implement the Logic in the Data definition file( which is a XML file), how and Where I have print use that IF construct (or) Can you Please Print the Code snippet in the Model XML template that i have pasted in my Post.
May i know what is this

Passing report name as report title

Using Desktop Publisher for Word and a standalone BIP Enterprise version, is it possible to pass the report name to the rtf template so that it could be used as the report title?
This feature would be useful when there are multiple reports (different names and slightly different queries/criteria) that use the same templates. We could then dynamically change the report title based on the report name.
Thanks,
Haresh

Haresh,
I'm not sure if there is any simple way to print report name in rtf template.
But there is a work around. Follow below steps...
1>create parameter called Report_Name in every report
2>put default value for that parameter as report name (Title)
3>select parameter type as Hidden
Now in rtf template.
<?param@begin:Report_Name?>
<?$Report_Name?>

Discoverer Report Names

Discoverer Report Naming
Our service Provider has created lot many reports for us and now theres a need for a generic naming to be followed for the Discoverer reports. Could someone tell me how difficult it would be to rename all the reports?
As I could see, theres a dataitem for the Discoverer Report names, I would imagine the report names are somewhere stored in the database as values in a DB table. So if the name of the report is stored in the database in a table , then it is simpler enough to change the value of the column. It would be more of a find and replace command in SQL.But I'm not sure whether this would have an impact on the actual Report name! for our service provider is telling us that they need to open every report in Discovere to rename and store it. Then they need to delete the other report- which I doubt as I'm not sure !
Also I would like to know where and how the names of the Discoverer Reports are saved in the database?
Kindly advice.Many thanks

Hi,
You can inform to your SP to edit the table EUL4_documents
and ask him to modify the name of the report that is stored in the column DOC_NAME .There is absolutely no necessary to open the work book that is stored in the database and change the work book name

Discoverer Report: How to find Business Area name from Report Name.

Hi
I opened a report in Disco Desktop 4 -> Resonsibiolity --> Report Name.
So I know Report name but don’t know which Business Area it belongs to.
How to find Business Area Name from Report Name?
Cheers
Vijay

Hi,
There is no relationship between reports and business areas. Each report can be built from many folders. Each folder can be in many business areas.
However you can try the following SQL which may give you the result you want for an v5 EUL. You will have to modify for Discoverer 4 EUL:
select distinct doc_name, obj.obj_name folder_name, bas.ba_name
from eul_us.eul5_documents doc
, eul_us.eul5_elem_xrefs xref
, eul_us.eul5_expressions exp
, eul_us.eul5_objs obj
, eul_us.eul5_ba_obj_links bol
, eul_us.eul5_bas bas
where xref.ex_from_id = doc.doc_id
and doc.doc_name = &your_report
and xref.ex_to_id = exp.exp_id
and obj.obj_id = exp.it_obj_id
and bol.bol_obj_id = obj.obj_id
and bas.ba_id = bol.bol_ba_id

Generating a report from RTF template using WSDL from ADF

Hi,
I am a newbie to ADF-BIP integration.
I am using the wsdl http://<<ip>>:<<port>>/xmlpserver/services/PublicReportService?WSDL for generating a report from RTF Template in ADF.
We are using Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher Release 11g (11.1.1) and JDeveloper 11g (11.1.1.5.0).
I have a couple of merge variables in my RTF template and I am passing these variable using Report Request parameters.
below is code I added for creating the report request.
First I created publicReportService using webservice proxy.
 public static ReportRequest getReportRequestFromBIPWithTemplate(String reportFolderOnBIP,
 String reportName,
 String outputFileFormat,
 String template,
 HashMap params) {
 String reportAbsolutePath = reportFolderOnBIP + "/" + reportName + ".xdo";
 ReportRequest repRequest = new ReportRequest();
 System.out.println("report path: " + reportAbsolutePath);
 repRequest.setReportAbsolutePath(reportAbsolutePath);
 repRequest.setAttributeTemplate(template);
 repRequest.setAttributeFormat(outputFileFormat);
 repRequest.setAttributeLocale("en-US");
 repRequest.setSizeOfDataChunkDownload(-1);
 System.out.println(params.size());
 ParamNameValue[] paramNameValue = new ParamNameValue[params.size()];
 ArrayOfParamNameValue arrayOfparamNameValue = new ArrayOfParamNameValue();
 Set set = params.entrySet();
 Iterator iter = set.iterator();
 int i = 0;
 while (iter.hasNext()) {
 Map.Entry me = (Map.Entry)iter.next();
 System.out.println(i + "--->>>" + me.getKey() + " : " + me.getValue());
 paramNameValue[i] = new ParamNameValue();
 paramNameValue.setMultiValuesAllowed(false);
ArrayOfString values = new ArrayOfString();
if (me.getValue() == null) {
values.getItem().add("");
} else {
values.getItem().add((me.getValue()).toString());
paramNameValue[i].setValues(values);
paramNameValue[i].setName((me.getKey()).toString());
arrayOfparamNameValue.getItem().add(paramNameValue[i]);
i++;
repRequest.setParameterNameValues(arrayOfparamNameValue);
return repRequest;
I generated report response bytes using below code
{code:java}
repRes = publicReportService.runReport(repReq,userID,password);
reportStream = repRes.getReportBytes();I could see the generated PDF but the supplied variables are NOT reflected in place of merge variables.
Ex: In template
Welcome, <<merge variable, userName>>
{code}
Generated PDF should have
{code:java}
Welcome, Hello World
{code}
Instead of the above I am getting
{code:java}
Welcome,
{code}
I am looking for a suggestion, Please help me in this regard.
Thanks,
Satya

Dynamically set report viewer report name

I have a CR4E application with several reports. I want to use the same viewer for each report in the app but need to change the report name based on the user's selection from a dropdown list on a form. How do I dynamically change the reportName in the viewer? Thanks, Bill

The viewer takes reportSource objects to display reports.Â The trick is to always have viewer in a seperate page from the rest of your business logic.
I created a sample for you where I have a page that has two links.Â Both links go to the same jsp page but they display different reports depending on the variables placed in the URL.Â My viewer page then reads the URL to discover which report you want display.Â
First Page:Â
<body>
<a href="DynamicReportViewer.jsp?report=CrystalReport1.rpt" > Report1 </a><br>
<a href="DynamicReportViewer.jsp?report=CrystalReport2.rpt" /a>Report2 </a><br>
</body>
JSP CODE to display reports
String reportName;
reportName = (String)request.getParameter("report");
ReportClientDocument clientDoc = (ReportClientDocument) session.getAttribute(reportName);
if(clientDoc ==null) {clientDoc =newReportClientDocument();
clientDoc.open(reportName, OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly);
session.setAttribute(reportName, clientDoc);
CrystalReportViewer crystalReportPageViewer =newCrystalReportViewer();
IReportSource reportSource = clientDoc.getReportSource();
crystalReportPageViewer.setReportSource(reportSource);
crystalReportPageViewer.setOwnPage(true); crystalReportPageViewer.setOwnForm(true);
crystalReportPageViewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, application, null);

Run BI Publisher report (with Excel template) on Windows 7

Hi, All.
Sorry for my English :)
I have some problem:
I use BIP standalone for my reports. Some reports are in Excel (with Excel template). When I run it on PC with WinXP - all is OK. But, when I try to run it on PC with Win7, then Excel is opening and writing this "Native file format and file extension does not mismatch. Before open be sure of file does not damage" (this is my translation). If I try save file on the hard disk, then file is 0 kb. But if a report has RTF-template, then it opening normaly on Win7's PC.
Have you any ideas?
Thanks!

option1:
The query should be same @ detail level, only the template has to be different for summary and details.
@runtime, user can choose to see the detail/summary
Disadvantage, if the data is huge,
advantage , only one report.
option2:
create two separate reports summary and details
and create diff data and diff layout and keep it as different report
Advantage, query will perform based on the user run report, summary/detail, so that you can write efficient query.
Dis advantage , two reports query/template to be maintained.

How to use Submit in background when report name is not static

Hi all,
I have an FM to which report name is being sent as an input parameter.
So based on the report name I need to call that particular report in background and send the output as a HTML format to dealer's MAIL ID which is also sent as an input param.
The logic for sending mail in background is achieved.
I am using the followinf logic to submit the job.
SUBMIT wf_report USER user_id VIA JOB lv_jobname NUMBER lv_jobcount
    to sap-spool immediately ' '
                     without spool dynpro
    WITH SELECTION-TABLE tb_seltab AND RETURN.
wf_report holds the dynamic value of report.
Here, tb_seltab holds various parameters and select-option values.Since I cannot pass a table to JOB_SUBMIT fm i had to use the SUBMIT statement.
But the program dumps coz we need to explicitly mention the name of the program in the submit statement.
Is there any other possibility to acheive this req when the report name is not going to be hardcoded?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Chandra.

You forgot the basics of using the SUBMIT.
try like this it will work
SUBMIT (wf_report ) USER user_id VIA JOB lv_jobname NUMBER lv_jobcount
to sap-spool immediately ' '
without spool dynpro
WITH SELECTION-TABLE tb_seltab AND RETURN.
