Report_other parameter in set_report_object_property

Hi everyone,
I am having trouble passing values from a form to a report. I need to pass a value to report for report_other parameter.
- p_func is a user parameter in the report.
- :control.func_name is the block and item name in the form.
The report works fine if I pass the value as a constant like this
v_param:='paramform=no p_func=' Air Service';
However, if I pass the value from an item in forms block... like this
v_param:='paramform=no p_func=' ||:control.func_name||' ';
I get this error from reports
"REP-0788: Warning: The value of restricted LOV parameter P_FUNC is not among the selectable values."
Thanks in advance for your help.

Try this,
v_param:='paramform=no p_func=' || AddQuote(:control.func_name);
FUNCTION AddQuote(cText VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
BEGIN
RETURN (CHR(39) || cText || CHR(39));
END;

Vikas,
So, is your code producing an error when your report is called? Also, it would be helpful to know your Forms and Reports versions. Is ":p_season_year" set up as a USER_PARAMETER (UP) in your report or is it a true lexical parameter (meaning you should reference it with '&' instead of ':')? If it is a UP, the typical way to pass a value to this UP from Forms is to use a ParamList object instead of the REPORT_OTHER parameter of the Set_Report_Object_Property built-in. For example:
DECLARE
   pl_id    ParamList;
   pl_name VARCHAR2(10) := 'REPORT34';
   v_rep VARCHAR2(1000);
   rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
BEGIN
   pl_id := Get_Parameter_List(pl_name);
   IF id_null(pl_id) THEN
      pl_id := Create_Parameter_List(pl_name);
   END IF;
   Add_Parameter(pl_id, 'P_SEASON_YEAR', TEXT_PARAMETER, :SALE_ORDER.SEASON_YEAR);
   repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT( 'REPORT34' );
   v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid, pl_id);
   ... rest of your code here ...

Problem in Runinng a report with parameter form through Run_Report_object

Hi,
I am trying to run reports thought RUN_REPORT_OBJECT built-in. It works fine in following cases
* Run a report without parameter Form
* Run a report with parameter form by passing parameters through parameter
List.
But it did not o\work in following cases.
* Run a report with parameter form by passing parameters through setting the
REPORT_OTHER option of SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY built-in.
* Run a report with parameter form by using Reports own parameter form.
In first case it says un able to run report and does not even submitt the job to the AS. In the second case its submits the job but when i show it with WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT, it opens the parameter form and when i run the report after filling the parameters, it displays an error page.
I am using 9iDS and 10g AS, and 10g Database. Please help me.
Mohib.

Mohib,
Run a report with parameter form by passing parameters through setting the REPORT_OTHER option of SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY built-in.[...] it says un able to run report and does not even submitt the job to the AS
This sound like a user error to me and you want to check the parameters and maybe look at the Reports Queue Manager for the exact error message
Run a report with parameter form by using Reports own parameter form.

WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT parameters trouble

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to run a report from a form by a submit button in the form. It does work, I mean, I can see the report after pressing the button, but it works as if there was no parameter, it ignores it completely. I don't really know how to use the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT and the WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT. My parameter P_SOC is a number and I'm using 10g for the DB and also for forms and reports. Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
You can use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT or WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT.
Run reportobject is basically similar to run_product in the old version of forms and requires that the reports file is listed within the form (under reports).
Web.show_document is different. With this you can just take the URL and run the report outside your application (should you wish). This does require an entry into the cgicmd.dat file on the app server (under reports/conf).
Check out the help in Forms for details of these commands.

If we want to execute form in A server to run report that reside in B server, we can use web.show_document with B server host name / port and report servlet parameter.
But is it possible if we use run_report_object ? (No share admin , no cluster)
Yes.
We have your same configuration (two independent FMW Linux machines), and we use run_report_object to run all our reports. Some time ago, for reasons that I don't detail here, we had to stop one of the reports servers, and we used the other one, with no problems at all.
The reports server name is unique within the network, and you can use any reports server that is visible by
rwdiag.sh -findAll

Run a report in Forms 9i after migration from Forms 6i

Hi,
I face the following problem:
We do have to migrate from Forms 6i to 9i. In our "old" application, reports where called by using RUN_PRODUCT (in different forms and menues). But to start a report in 9i environment, RUN_REPORT_OBJECT must be used. Does the report has to be an object in the calling form or is it possble to start it as we used to directly from the file system ?
Regards,
Markus

FRM 41215: CAN NOT FIND REPORT - Please help

Hi,
I am new to oracle 9i. I am trying to convert the forms in 8i to 9i. While i am doing i have many forms calling reports thru run_product. Now i am changing those into run_report_object. Even though i am getting errors like FRM 41215: CAN NOT FIND REPORT , INVALID REPORT ID.
declare
repid report_object;
v_rep varchar2(100);
begin
repid := find_report_object('mrnr0028');
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
end;
This is the command i have used. Is there anything wrong, or is there any necessity to specify any particular path for report files.
Pls help me asap.
Thanks

FRM-41217

When running in Developer 6i, the code below works fine. Now we are upgrading to IDS Release 2, the code below is having an errorr: FRM-41217 Unable to get Report Job Status. Forms are runnning on web.
Code:
Declare
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(20);
rep_status varchar2(30);
tmp varchar2(2000);
v_parm1 Varchar2(1000);
v_parm2 Varchar2(1000);
BEGIN
v_parm1 := 'P_WHERE_CLS='''||nvl(:PARAMETER.p_where,'X')||'''';
v_parm2 := 'P_SHOW_DOC='''||nvl(:REPORT.show_doc,'X')||'''';
repid := find_report_object('REPORT1');
Set_report_object_property(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'PARAMFORM=NO');
Set_report_object_property(repid,REPORT_OTHER,v_parm2||' '||v_parm1);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid, REPORT_SERVER, 'REPORTSRVR');
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);
WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED')LOOP
rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
END LOOP;
if rep_status in ( null, 'FINISHED', '' ) then
     MESSAGE('Report Completed ');
else
MESSAGE('Error when running report.');
Raise FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE;
end if;
*********************************************** This part of code is the only different
/* For IDS 9i Release 2 */
tmp := '/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||
'?server='||:dummy.REP_SERVER||'&authid=orcladmin/workflow1';
/* For Developer 6i */
tmp := '/dev60cgi/rwcgi60.exe/getjobid='||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_'))||'?
server='||:global.report_Server;
Web.show_document(tmp, '_blank');
exception
when others then
     Message(sqlerrm);
END;

Most administrators turn the ability to check the status off because of security concerns. I know I do.
We make Form Developers call a URL rather than using the built in to run a report and loop to check the status.

Pass User Parameters between Forms and Reports...?

Hi,
I have been trying to pass user parameters from forms to reports using
RUN_REPORT_OBJECT. I am able to run the report from the form, but still don't know how to pass user_parameters. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks,
AB

You can use SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY with the "REPORT_OTHER" parameter
The following example passes 3 parameters to the report:
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(pt_report_object_id, REPORT_OTHER, 'paramform=no p_param_1='||pc_param_1||' p_param_2='||pc_param_2);

Code lines which generate FRM-41213

Hi all,
Here is a portion of code which generate an FRM-41213's Errors:
BEGIN
          V_rid:=FIND_REPORT_OBJECT(Rep_Obj);
          -- setting Reports runtime parameters
          SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(V_rid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
          SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(V_rid,REPORT_FILENAME,'RD_DF1.rep');
          SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(V_rid,REPORT_SERVER,'myrserv');
          SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(V_rid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);
          SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(V_rid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'PDF');
                         V_Other_Param:='userid=scott/tiger@db P_Num_Act=6212 P_Typ_Cod=O';
          SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(V_rid,REPORT_OTHER,V_Other_Param);
          V_rmessage     := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(V_rid);
          V_rstatus      := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(V_rmessage);
END;
When debugging is see that it's the last line which generate this error.I'm usind IAS/LINUX and the standalone report is installed on the server(rwserver).This report server works fine using showjobs or running a report by enter the full adress in the browser.
Are There errors in my code?What's the problem
plz help, it's very important.

Hi,
first of all, you don't need to pass username and password as REPORT_OTHER parameter. These values are passed implicit.
The error message means "unable to communicate with Reports Server". You need to find out why the Reports Server cannopt be accessed from Forms (wrong name?). Ifthe Reports Server is on another server, does the Forms process have access to the network?
If you run Forms and Reports 6i then teh Reports Server must be configured as an tnsnames entry in the Forms home.
