"Report Parameters" - only default showing / translation

Hi,
I did a BI Publisher with the "Analyzer for Excel" and I have 2 issues.
1. I'm calling the report from an ApEx application with the following URL:
.../R_Rapport_analyse_E.xdo?_xpf=&_xpt=1&Calendrier=130001&No_demande=5
The data showed under "Report Data" are ok, but not the ones under "Report Parameters" (Calendrier and No_demande). The default ones are displayed.
2. Is there a way to translate "Report Parameters" and "Report Data". I've tried to change them and save the template, but it's not working.
Thanks in advance.

your steps ok
but do this one
you should be able to update the universe details (tools > universe > (universe)> refresh > import etc) and then run your report to get rid of partial results...

SSRS 2008 R2 Report parameters have default values and report not to auto run

Hi, I am using SSRS 2008 R2 one of my requirements for a Report is all the parameters have default value and I do not want this report to auto run when users open this report. I can create a dummy hidden parameter to break the auto run for this
report. But I am looking for solutions other than that.
Thanks in advance..........

Hi lone,
According to your description, you have a report with parameters. Now you want you report not to run automatically with your parameters default values. Right?
In Reporting Service, if you have parameters with default values in your report, your report will always auto run with these default values. We can say these default values are used for report running initially. So for your requirement, if you really need
to see your default value before the report running, the best workaround is set one more parameter to break the auto run like you have done. If you just want your report not to auto run, your can achieve it by removing those default values.

Reports region only shows 15 rows

I have a strange problem with a reports region. The region runs a simple SQL select against a table. My table has 18 rows but the report region only displays 15 rows.
I ran the SQL directly against the database and all 18 rows are returned, so it's not a problem with the query.
Under the Report Atrributes tab for the region, I checked the Layout and Pagination section. Number of rows was set to 15, which I thought explained my problem.
I deleted the value in number of rows. But the region still only shows 15 rows.
If I change the value in number of rows to 20, all 18 rows are shown. But again, if I delete the 20, only 15 are shown.
Is there some other setting somewhere which is defaulting the report to 15 rows?

That item is cleared as well. Very strange. Still can't see anything on the page that's causing it to only show 15 rows.
Edit -
Setting it to 999999 seems to cure the problem until I find a solution. Very strange, maybe it's a bug?

Show a report region only when link in other report is clicked

Hi Friends,
I am having 2 report regions.In my first report region i am having a column as a link. I want to show the 2nd report
region only when the link in the 1st report region is clicked. There is a button in the 2nd report region i want to show
that button only when the link in the first report is clicked.
The code for my first report is
select * from tasks;i have a link column task_id as
f?p=&APP_ID.:10:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.::P10_TASK_ID:#TASK_ID#My 2nd report code is
select * from task_details where task_id=:P10_TASK_ID;Plz help,
Thanks,
TJ

Hi Andy,
I tried this but having one problem. When i press a link the vaule of P10_TASK_ID is set and the 2nd report is shown.
When i go to other page and come back to this page the 2nd report is showing even with out pressing the link this is
because the value set for :P10_TASK_ID is still there. Where can i put the value back to null so that the 2nd report is
not shown with our pressing the link in the 1st one.
Thanks

Parameters won't show up when grouping data in intervals

Post Author: Charles Denight
CA Forum: General
Hi,Using Crystal Reports v. 9. I'm trying to create a report that will give me the sales to a group of 5,000 customers who were sent a mailing. For the mailing they were broken down into 12 segments. I have the sales data for all of those who responded. I'm trying to set up a report that will show me the 12 segments as separate groups, their sales for the promotion period (January, 2008) compared to their monthly sales for the previous 3 months (4th quarter) by month.I've tried several approaches but so far haven't licked it. My latest was to set up a parameter for each of the 12 segments, one each. I did this by creating 12 Excel files, one per segment, with account ID numbers for that segment only, saved as text. Then, when I created each of the 12 parameters in Crystal I used the Excel files as import lists for the default values for each parameter. Then I tried to group the data in intervals, based on Account IDs, and set the condition for each group (I thought I could create 12 groups) using the parameter for that segment. But the parameters don't show up in the pulldown list for the condition. It just shows the list of account numbers in the data. I would appreciate any thoughts you have on....1. How to get the parameters to show in this particular approach to the problem.2. Other approaches to solving the problem.Thanks!

Take the flash drive to the computer you know it works on and copy those files off of it, possibly emailing them to yourself so you can use them on your MacBook. Get a different flash drive that will work better with your MacBook.

How to filter a sharepoint list with report parameters

Hello there,
I'm trying to make a sql report on a sharepoint library. I have no problems to connect to the library but i cannot find a way to filter my data source with report parameters. I've searched on the net a lot, found some stuffs about xml but nothing that shows
how to do it with sharepoint. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Hi mgarant,
As you mentioned, by default, we can use xml parameter "query" to filter a SharePoint list from SQL Server Reporting Services. We can also modify the value for the "query" to use SQL Server Reporting Serivces parameters to filter the SharePoint list.
Below are the detailed steps for your reference:
1.Change the query string to be a string like this:
<Query>
<SoapAction>http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/GetListItems</SoapAction>
<Method Namespace="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/" Name="GetListItems">
<Parameters>
<Parameter Name="listName">
<DefaultValue>{ADBE55DB-63A1-4C14-9DA0-B1B05C13B4C8}</DefaultValue>
</Parameter>
<Parameter Name="query" Type="xml">
</Parameter>
</Parameters>
</Method>
<ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="true">*</ElementPath>
</Query>
2.In the dataset modification dialog, go to "Parameters" tab.
3.Create a Report Parameter(e.g. CityParam).
4.In parameter tab, create a parameter with:
Name: query
Value: ="<Query>
   <Where>
      <Eq>
         <FieldRef Name='WorkCity' />
         <Value Type='Text'>" & Parameters!CityParam.Value & "</Value>
      </Eq>
   </Where>
</Query>"
Please note, “case sensitive” is required. In this case, the parameter name for "query" must be in lower case. WorkCity is name of a field in the SharePoint list.
For more information about how to retrieve value from SharePoint list, I would suggest you reading the following article and threads:
http://vspug.com/dwise/2007/11/28/connecting-sql-reporting-services-to-a-sharepoint-list-redux/
http://blogs.msdn.com/mariae/archive/2007/12/13/querying-sharepoint-list-from-reporting-services-returns-only-not-null-columns.aspx
I also implemented a sample, you could download it from:
http://cid-3c7e963ff6ccd974.office.live.com/browse.aspx/.Public/SharePoint%20List%20sample?uc=2
Please feel free to ask, if you have any more questions.

Reporting Services web service complex xml type report parameters

Hi,
I have the following xml type parameter in my request query that I use in reporting services.
<Parameter Name="accountDetails" Type="XML" xmlns:d4p1="thevalue" xmlns:i="thevalue">
<DefaultValue>
<d4p1:AccountDetailDto>
<d4p1:AccountNumber>12345</d4p1:AccountNumber>
<d4p1:AccountType>Sales</d4p1:AccountType>
</d4p1:AccountDetailDto>
</DefaultValue>
I want to know how I can assign values to the accountDetails parameter from report parameters, I've tried to call it from the dataset parameter properties but it doesn't return any values. I created Parameters!accountDetails.Value on the dataset parameters
properties and assigned it the following value: it only returns empty columns
="<AccountDetailDto><AccountNumber>"& Parameters!AccountNumber.Value &"</AccountNumber><AccountType>"& Parameters!AccountType.Value &"</AccountType></AccountDetailDto>"
You're help will be highly appreciated as I've been trying to solve this for a while now

Hi Alisa,
Perhaps I should explain my problem clearly...
This is my query request that I send to the webservice:
<Query>
<Method Name="GetPerAccountAssetAllocation" Namespace="http://tempuri.org/">
<Parameters>
<Parameter Name="accountDetails" Type="XML" xmlns:d4p1="thevalue" xmlns:i="thevalue">
<DefaultValue>
<d4p1:AccountDetailDto>
<d4p1:AccountNumber>12345</d4p1:AccountNumber>
<d4p1:AccountType>JSE</d4p1:AccountType>
</d4p1:AccountDetailDto>
</DefaultValue>
</Parameter>
</Parameters>
</Method>
<SoapAction>http://tempuri.org/IPortfolioManagementService/GetPerAccountAssetAllocation</SoapAction>
<ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="true">*</ElementPath>
</Query>
It works well when I run it just like this, that is without specifying any parameters in the report data dialogue window or on the dataset parameters properties, it returns the values and columns correctly.
So my problem is, I need to find out how(xml parameter syntax, steps e.t.c)
I can do to allow users to specify the accountDetails parameter, its quite tricky for me coz its an xml type parameter, Im not sure if I should just specify the AccountNumber and
ReportType parameters separately:
I've tried the following without any success:
1. Under the dataset properties: I tried not to specify a default value for the accountDetails parameter on the xml query, then I added a parameter called "accountDetails" under the dataset parameters properties, then under parameter
value I added the following xml value :
<d4p1:AccountDetailDto>
<d4p1:AccountNumber>Parameters!AccountNumber.Value</d4p1:AccountNumber>
<d4p1:AccountType>Parameters!AccountType.Value</d4p1:AccountType>
</d4p1:AccountDetailDto>
(I also added the AccountNumber and AccountType parameters under the report data dialogue window)
This returns empty columns, is there something I'm missing, or am I doing this incorrectly?

Report Parameters behaving strangely

Hello,
I just completed my report in the designer provided with visual studio 2008, it's a relatively complex report with 6 subreports and has multiple detail sections. The parent report has one parameter which is used in a Database command. The report works nicely when previewing from the designer and only shows up one required parameters as it should. All the subreports have parameters as well but these are all linked to things on the parent report.
The problem is when I try to execute the report from code, it ignores my parameters and proceeds to ask for multiple parameters, both including the parent parameters and all sub report parameters. If I enter these manually just to test if it works, I then get a message saying there's an error in one of the subreport's record selection formula. However I'm not sure how much I believe this as the previewing works completely fine.
I just have no idea what is happening and why I am getting requests for so many parameters?
Marlon

Update ***
I have managed to work through towards getting the report to display in the .NET app now, I needed to check the IsLinked() fucntion before assigning parameters.
However, I have now been presented with an even more weird problem: If I switch database in code, I now get asked to enter a parameter I know is a linked one, if I do I get a message saying the record selection formula references an unknown field. But if I get the designer to change database, then get it to preview, it works flawlessly (both in the previewer and in the application). Until I change the database back to the original one, where I get the same error.
Our application needs to be used in many client organisations with each having different connection strings / databases (all have the same schema obviously) so I need this report to run independent of what the database it was designed / compiled on.
Here is the code I use to switch database within the application, is there anything different to the way I do it to the way the crystal report designer does it? As the designer is obviously doing something behind the scenes.
This code has worked on the 15 or so reports I've designed so far.
               ReportDocument cryRpt = new ReportDocument();
                TableLogOnInfo tLI = new TableLogOnInfo();
                ConnectionInfo cI = new ConnectionInfo();
                Tables tables;
                cryRpt.Load(reportPath);
                    cI.ServerName = (string)builder["Data Source"];
                    cI.DatabaseName = (string)builder["Initial Catalog"];
                    cI.UserID = (string)builder["User ID"];
                    cI.Password = (string)builder["Password"];
                    tables = cryRpt.Database.Tables;
                    foreach (Table t in tables)
                        tLI = t.LogOnInfo;
                        tLI.ConnectionInfo = cI;
                        t.ApplyLogOnInfo(tLI);

Hi KittyCat101,
If I understand correctly, you want to use a parameter to filter Status field that starts with “Is” or “Can” or “Fi”. If in this scenario, we can refer to the following steps to achieve your goal:
Modify the available values for @Status parameter to “Is”, “Can” and “Fi”.
Right-click the tablix or dataset to open the properties dialog box.
Select Filter in the left pane, then add a filter like below to filter Status field:
Expression: =Fields!Status.Value like (Parameters!Status.Value & "*") Type: Boolean
Operator: =
Value: true
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

Web service report parameters

Hi,
just wondering is it possible to retrieve more info regarding report parameters using web service, I can only get following:
multiValuesAllowed
name
values
basically could a call register some other classes than call.setReturnClass(ReportDefinition.class) or call.setReturnClass(ParamNameValue [].class) which gives me the same info.
The reason why I'm asking is because I'd like to be able to get:
id / name
data type
label
default value
value set
and so on... so I can create my own prompt page in which user could set/select desired values and then run report with those values. Is this making any sense?
Looking at this document http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2007/10/25/oracle-bi-publisher-101331-web-services-first-impressions/ it looks like it is not possible, are there any workarounds.
At the moment I'm doing this by parsing xdo and that way I can get parameters, value sets and so on, then using api I'm generating reports, but I don't like this approach...
Any advices and help regarding this are welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Tomislav.

Filtering sharepoint list data using report parameters

We are using xml to pull data from a custom sharepoint list into sql 2005. We have set a parameter that allows the user to filter the data by surname, however when the user tries to filter the list the drop down box brings up a list of every record, so there are duplicate entries for each surname.
Is there a way of filtering this so that there is only one instance of the users surname instead of it showing all the records?
Any help would be much appreciated.

MIRO: Only Default tax code appears on header, no other tax codes displayed

Hi Friends,
In MIRO header, only default tax code appears. No other tax codes even thought they are defined in FTXP for the country appear there. Is there any customizing to be done so that all these tax code also show up there? This is happening only for a few company codes which do not have reporting country assigned to tax codes in FTXP. Is there any specific logic/reason based on reporting country that all other tax codes do not appear in MIRO?
Thanks and regards,
Pinky

Tax codes need to be defined for the country which is same as the country of the relevant company code you are using in MIRO. Also the country needs to be assigned to the tax calculation procedure in OBBG.
Thanks and regards

I am trying to get a footnote repeated on each page of a report- it only appears on first page - how do I make it appear on each page please?

How do I get the same footnote to appear on each page of a report - it only shows on the first page?? I went in through View and Layout per instructions. Thanks.

Hard to tell w/out knowing exactly which application and version you are drafting this report in. Often the footer on the first page is distinct from the footers of the second page through end - quick fix: add the footer to the second page and you should then be able to format it to continue on through the end of the report.

WebI does not return failed when scheduling a report which only holds parti

WebI does not return failed when scheduling a report which only holds partial results.
We have scheduled reports which take some time to run. When they are scheduled they sometimes show successful even though the report only holds partial results. The only indication is when you open the report as webi report you see the warning that it holds partial results.
When running the report manually, it works file.
The issue is not in the no of rows in the universe settings because we this unselected. The issue is that it times out.
The reason that it times out is that a lot of resources are used for loading and processing data when the report is scheduled. When running it manually, it works because at this time the serverload is less. the time in the universe is set to 10 min.
The version we have is BOXIR2-SP4.
Ok. Issue identified.
The question is - why is the report successful when it holds partial results? If this is normal behavior, noone can really trust the scheduled reports, especially when you save it to excel and send it by mail.
Is there a solution for this except increasing the allowed query time which would not solve the issu but only allow more reports to complete?

Currently this problem exists in XI R2. This feature will be part of thenext Service Pack i.e XI R2 SP6.
This CER will be delivered from IDC Webi and BIP Platform as part of Jupiter Sp6.
Problem Statement:
Scheduled WebI Reports which are partially refreshed are distributed to the destinations for Users to View and make decisions. These users arenu2019t usually aware that these reports have u201CPARTIAL RESULTSu201D
