Report region with sql query

Hi
I have a report region with sql query. There are two regions in page. On top of page, user enters data and after that second region show enterd data which is report region
based on sql query.
Now,when this page is opned, as user had not entered any thing, report region shows "no data found" message. Is it possible to remove that message or
may i conditionally disaply report region i.e if data is inserted then only report region is dispalyed.
Thanks

i was trying with select count(1) in expression.

Just for your info, COUNT() (without any grouping obviously) with always return 1 row. If there are no result for the query then 1 row will be returned with a value of zero - so there are results returned.
Secondly, why were you using COUNT(1) rather than COUNT(*)? That is is faster is a very common misconception and not true. If you need to know how many rows have been returned, use COUNT(*). If you need to take nulls into account (ie. not include them in your count) then use COUNT(column_name) and name the column that you are interested in specifically.

  • Problem with SQL query region source containing OLAP clauses

    Hi team,
    I believe I found a bug when HTMLDB validates the SQL Query in a report region.
    My query includes an ORDER BY clause within a windowing function and HTMLDB refuses to accept the source owing to the presence of the ORDER BY and the column heading sort preference.
    Clearly the order-by in a window function has little to do with the column heading sort, but this error prevents me from updating the conditional display item in the page definition.
    Note also that the page was imported smoothly from the 1.5 version, so probably the region source is not checked at that time, but only when you update it "manually".
    So, in the end, if I don't change anything the page works because the sql query is assumed to be correct but unfortunately I need to change the condition and I cannot.
    The problem shows up in page 126 of app 21670, SQL query region.
    Bye,
    Flavio
    PS: may be I can work around this by using the pl/sql function returning the sql query.

    Flavio,
    We're aware of this problem. For now, your workaround is described in this thread:

  • Bold a single row in a Report based on SQL Query

    Should be easy? So, how do I bold a single row in a report based on SQL query without creating a new template or writing Java for the page? What is the Tabular Form Element "Element Attributes" field for? Or what am I supposed to put in there to make it do anything?

    One way to do this is to add a hidden column to your report which contains the formatting value, for example:
    select empno
    , ename
    , sal
    , decode(empno,1,'font-weight:bold','font-weight:normal') style
    from emp
    Hide the STYLE column.
    Then you can use this column for each column in Column Formatting > HTML expression in this way:
    <span style="#STYLE#">#SAL#</span>
    Unfortunately you have to do this for each colum you want to appear bold.
    good luck,

    Please Ignore '----', added it for clarity
    I am trying to write a query to aggregate paid_amount based on Reference_No, Check_Number, Payment_Date, Invoice_Number, Invoice_Type, Vendor_Number and display description with Invoice_type 'I' when there are multiple records with the same Reference_No, Check_Number, Payment_Date, Invoice_Number, Invoice_Type, Vendor_Number. When there are no multiple records I want to display the respective Description.
    The query should return the following data set

  • Setting Default value with SQL Query as Data Model

    Hi All,
    I am developing report based on SQL query.date set as 'SQL Query'. I have created two params start-date and end-date. I am fetching records from database between these two dates.

    Hi Vara,
    To set the default value for one of your parameters to SYSDATE you need to enter:

  • Export to Excel from Report region (pl/sql returning sql query)

    Hello all,
    I have encountered an interesting problem. I have an HTMLDB application with a lot of sql reports coded straight inside the report region. In order to better organize my reports, I decided to
    1. make all my report regions of type "Pl/Sql function returning SQL query"
    2. create a package inside my database schema which houses all reports as pl/sql functions returning VARCHAR2, the string returned being the report query
    3. just calling "return package_name.function_name" from inside my report region of type "Pl/sql function returning SQL query".
    This technique seemed to work perfectly. The reports were being returned as expected. I was then asked to provide the "Export to Excel" capability to all my reports. This seemed like a piece of cake using HTML DB's "Export to Excel" extension. However, the "export to excel" does not function correctly when my reports are inside a package in the database. HTML DB tries to export but inside the excel spreadsheet, instead of seeing row data, I see:
    <pre>failed to parse SQL query:
    ORA-00936: missing expression
    <!-- select a.username, b.table_name, 'View Row Data' from schema_browser_user_list a, all_tables b where a.user_id = and a.username = b.owner order by b.table_name asc
    --!>
    </pre>
    I am building my query string inside of my package functions by using a combination of literal strings and concatenating them with some parameter values being passed in. It seems that the HTML DB engine which exports the report to excel does not properly understand the concatenation of variables as can be seen by the empty space to the right of the equal sign in the "a.user_id = " clause. Does anybody have any input as to whether this is a known issue or if I am doing something wrong? Thanks a lot for your time.
    - Kenny R.

    James,
    Thanks for the quick reply. I think you mis-understood what I'm doing. All I'm doing is creating packaged functions which return VARCHAR2. The VARCHAR2 that they return is the report query. With this technique, I no longer have to type the query into the HTML DB report region. Instead, I make the report region a "Pl/sql function returning sql query" and make the following call: return package_name.function_name(some_application_items passed in as parameters)
    This makes for a much more organized html db app. The problem is that the "export to excel" function does not correctly interpret the VARCHAR2 that my packaged functions are returning. Is this a better explanation? Thanks again for your time.

  • Problem With SQL Query (updateable report)

    Hi,
    I have a report which I have set as type 'SQL Query (updateable report)'. I have added a 'row selector' to the report but when I run it I get the following error message:
    failed to parse SQL query:
    ORA-00904: "COL60": invalid identifier
    The report works fine if I remove the row selector. Any ideas as to why the error is being produced?
    Cheers

    I don't have the apex_application.g_f01(i) referenced in the page source...In the page source you wouldn't find anything by that name
    Identify the tabular form's checkbox column in the page(firebug/chrome developer panel makes this easy)
    It should be like
    &lt;input id=&quot;...&quot; value=&quot;&quot; type=&quot;checkbox&quot; name=&quot;fXX&quot; &gt;we are interested in the name attribute , get that number (between 01 and 50)
    Replace that number in the code, for instance if it was f05 , the code would use
    apex_application.g_f05
    --i'th checked record' primary keyWhen you loop through a checkbox array, it only contains the rows which are checked and it is common practice to returns the record's primary key as the value of the checkbox(available as the the i'th array index as apex_application.g_f05(i) , where i is sequence position of the checked row) so that you can identify the record.

  • Using prompts with SQL query

    Post Author: wleonetti
    CA Forum: Crystal Reports
    Hello!
    I have acquired a report from our regional headquarters, and have been asked locally to add a prompt to one that already exists in the report.
    The report currently uses an SQL query, which in turn uses a single prompt to limit the data reported. However, the name of the parameter in the Field Explorer in Parameter Fields is "Facility", but, when I use the Database Expert and select edit for the query (under Selected Tables, right-click on "Command" under the database and click on "Edit Command"--is Command a default name?), under the Parameter List, the name of the parameter there is "Facility1" (?). The SQL references the parameter "Facility1" (...like '{?Facility1}'), but I cannot find any link/interface between the Parameter List "Facility1" to the Parameter Field "Facility", and I cannot find any other references to "Facility1" anywhere else in the report (sorry, I'm very new at CR, and am not sure how to do a global search of a desired text string in the reports).
    I have asked the author for an explanation, but he would only offer, after indicating that he ... was not obligated to help me in any way .., the following bone: "I just simply rename the parameter in Command from Facility1 to Facility which bears the same name as the parameter interface and it just works fine." This only served to confuse me more, since the parameter name currently in Command is  "Facility1" (and the report works the way it is)--when I change the name of the parameter in Parameter List (and the parameter name in the SQL query) to "Facility" (to match the Parameter Field's "Facility"?) ... the parameter in the Parameter Fields ... disappears?
    Can someone please instruct me how to, in whatever steps are necessary, add a parameter to the Parameter Fields and edit the SQL code to use that parameter? or point me to some documentation that will help me with this?
    Thanks in advance for any help offered.

    Hi Eric,
    Try expressing the source as this:
    begin
       return functionname(to_date('30-sep-2010', 'dd-mon-yyyy'));
    end;That works fine for me, and if I take out the begin-end and the trailing semicolon from the return statement I get the same behavior as you.
    It does mention in the help for the source (only during the wizard though) that this source type has to be expressed that way, but I agree it would be helpful if the tool would validate for this format when 'Function Returning SQL Query' is used or give some sort of indication of the trouble. Anyway, this should get you going again.
    Hope this helps,
    John

    I have found a solution to this problem after some more investigation. PowerQuery does not support to use SQL statement as source for Teradata (possibly same for other sources as well). This is "by design" according to Microsoft. Hence the problem
    is not because different PowerQuery versions as mentioned above. When designing the query in PowerQuery in Excel make sure to use the interface/navigation to create the query/select tables and NOT a SQL statement. The SQL statement as source works fine on
    a client machine but not when scheduling it in Power BI in the cloud. I would like to see that the functionality within PowerQuery and Excel should be the same as in Power BI in the cloud. And at least when there is a difference it would be nice with documentation
    or more descriptive errors.

  • Report Layout width(Report based on SQL Query)

    Is there any way to increase the width of the report layout? I have removed as many columns as I can and dropped the font size down but the data in the columns is still wrapping to more than one line. How can I increase the report layout width, or change the layout to landscape or something similar.
    thanks

    I had this problem with wrapping text. You have to create a Reports From SQL Query and choose a custom layout. Then when you go the the HTML layout section, you will need to ad nowrap to the <TD> tag (i.e. <TD nowrap>) for each field you do not want to wrap.

  • Help with SQL query into Crystal

    Afternoon all,
    I am trying to convert the following SQL query into Crystal by using the tables given in the query however the relationship given in the query is bit awkward, in a sense that I cannot create a relationship under Crystal desgin.
    Here is the query
    select count(order_progressed.order_no),reason_code
    from order_progressed,lab_reasons, rework_groups
    where
    order_progressed.date_created=Today
    and (order_progressed.order_status=from_gate
    and lab_reasons.reason_code between from_reason and to_reason)
    group by lab_reasons.reason_code
    order by 2
    We have three tables
    1: Order_Progressed
    2: Lab Reasons
    3: Rework_Groups
    Order_progressed can be linked with rework_group by Status (if you see the line order_progressed.order_status=from_gate)
    However how to link the following line?
    lab_reasons.reason_code between from_reason and to_reason
    I mean when I try to link it by Lab Reasons.Reason Code to From_reason, to reason, it doesn't seem to work.
    The report is grouped by Lab Reasons. Reason Code, so I really have to some how create a relationship between Lab Reasons table and Rework_Group table.
    This is what I get when I run the same query into Crystal using the relationship
    SELECT lab_reasons.reason_code, order_progressed.date_created, order_progressed.order_no
    FROM   maxmast.lab_reasons lab_reasons, kevin.order_progressed order_progressed,
    roger.rework_groups rework_groups
    WHERE  (order_progressed.order_status=rework_groups.from_gate) AND
    ((lab_reasons.reason_code=rework_groups.from_reason) AND
    (lab_reasons.reason_code=rework_groups.to_reason)) AND (order_progressed.date_created>={ts

    Many thanks
    Kind Regards

    Sastry I didn't understand why did you use Lab_reasons.reason_code twice in your SQL.
    What I have done since I posted this thread,
    I created a command like this
    Select *
    from rework_groups,lab_reasons
    where
    lab_reasons.reason_code between from_reason and to_reason
    Then I took out the lab_reasons table and rework_groups table, then I linked the order_status from Order_progressed table to From_gate of the newly created table (I called it Reason_Code).
    This made the report running but it is crunching quite allot of numbers. I wonder if I made a mistake somewhere?
    Oh and please note, I'd like to create an SQL (if need be) without the date entry which was done in the original SQL because I'd like to setup my own date range within Crystal Reports instead of getting passed by SQL itself.
    This is how it looks like in Crystal now.

    Hi Satyaki,
    My problem is with SQL and PL/SQL codd. I managed to convert some of my reports and now I'm facing a problem with converted SQL and PL/SQL code. To give you an Idea the following is a sample of a converted report.
    Pls have a look. (p.s how can i post formated text)
    Thanks,
    Ribhi

  • Interactive report - Function returning SQL query

    i notice that it is not possible to create an interactive report based on a function call. can anyone shed any light on why this is?
    also, is there a work around possible? i really dont want to store my SQL query inside a page in the application

    Craig,
    I tried the collection workaround as well but noticed that it gets incredible slow when data sets grow bigger. Depending on what you need maybe my solution is of help for you:
    I used multiple subpages with interactive reports, an iframe and a javascript function setting the iframe-src on the main page, see my last post on
    interactive report custom GO-Button (-process)
