Report's HTML ouput via Email

Hi falks!
We are facing the issue that when we try to send a report via Email in HTML format it does not export table borders. Any idea about this issue?
Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks for your time.

Ariel

Thanks for your response.
The customer has updated with the following:
The problem here is the standard program "IBY_FD_SRA_FORMAT module: Send Separate Remittance Advices" sets the output type to HTML if the remittance advice delivery method is "MAIL". Below is the extract from the log file of the program "IBY_FD_SRA_FORMAT module: Send Separate Remittance Advices"
******** EXTRACT BEGIN ********
Since the delivery method is EMAIL, the XML Publisher output type is set to be html.
********* EXTRACT END *********
This causes the following issue: -
The concurrent program ends without generating a pdf output and hence cannot be emailed out as a pdf document.
Action required from you: -
[1] Ensure that the standard program does not default the output type to HTML for email. This should be PDF instead.
[2] Ensure that IBY XDO Delivery, sends the PDF output as an attachment.

HTML Format via Email

When sending output via email in HTML format (from rtf template), all the formating is lost, layout just expands horizontally.
Output is correct when displayed in pdf format.
Also occurs when previewing the output.
Further information:
This is purely a custom rtf template created for remittance report. In the rtf template we have used the filler, we have kept many conditions like if the data spills over to next page based on number of lines,and if the number of data lines is less then also it should align and fit to the table /page etc.
If we remove the filler the output will shrink to half page in HTML page and WE DO NOT want this kind of report output. We need the report output in HTML which should fir to paper size(A4 size) even we have less number of data rows.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks

Need to send HTML table via email

Hi Experts,
I am using the FM EFG_GEN_SEND_EMAIL to send email but unable to send html content through this. I know I could use SO_SEND_OBJECT FM too which automatically sends the email in HTML format but it doesn't have from option(FROM EMAIL ID)
I tired manually chaning the format from RAW to HTM via debugging and then found that its sending the html format email.
Request you to please let me know if we could achieve the same.
Thanks,

How to create an excel report and send it via email using a BPEL process ?

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to develop a xl report based the data in the DB table. I will have to query the list of records entered / processed during previous day, generated the xl based report and send to users via email.
I talked to one the experts, he asked me to use the following Adapter and BPEL activities to accomplish it.
DBAdapter --> {BPEL process} --> Java Embedding --> Email Activity.
Can someone please help me to pass the information retrieved by DBAdapter to Java Embedding and then to email import? I have created DBAdapter and Java Embedding. I don't know, how to retrieve the data read / sent by DBAdapter using Java Embedding. Also please help me to pass the xl attachment to Email Activity.
Thanks for your help in advance!
Thanks,
Harisudhan Selvaraj

I would suggest something like:
DBAdapter --> Bpel Process --> File Adapter --> write file to location (you can write in csv which can be imported into xls)
Read Location --> FileAdapter --> Bpel Process --> Email Activity

Question: Sending a HTML-Link (via email) for updating data

Hello,
I have an simple application which is club member request form.
Anyone who will get a member in our club can type in some personal data and after pressing the create button he will get a confirmation e-mail.
Till here everything works fine.
Now I will put an confirmation link (HTML) in the confirmation e-mail.
The new member should click on this link and the link should update (and commit) a the column "confirm" in my new_member table depending on an ID.
Now my problem:
I have no idea how this link should look like.
Thanks for help

Generally, this kind of implementation goes deeper than just what the link looks like. In fact, what the link looks like depends entirely on how you've implemented the confirmation process in your database.
Although I've never done this specifically, I have given considerable thought to how it would be implemented. I thought that I would have a specific table that would hold pending confirmations. This table would hold some kind identifying data as well as a unique ID that would identify the row, probably something that looked like a GUID.
Given this table structure there would probably be a trigger or PL/SQL process that took the pending member information and moved it into the members table when the member clicked on a confirmation button on the confirmation page. Therefore, the link that is sent to the user would need to look something like this:
http://[yourhost.domain:port]/pls/[your DAD]/f?p=&app_id.:[your confirmation page #]&session.::::[your page item name]:[the unique ID for the member]
The page item name is the item you define on the confirmation page that will hold the confirmation ID and the unique Id comes out of the table for the specific membership you're confirming.
Again, this is conceptual since I've not done this specifically, but it should give you a place to start.

How to integrate the XML data received via email in to MySQL

Hi,
This is JK, my compnay is planning to adopt Adobe Livecycle Barcoded forms technology, We are planning to automate the Weekly report submission of the HR dept of my company, where the various employees from various branches will be submiting their weekly reports thru Barcoded forms via email and the data has to be fed in to a MySQL database for Analysis purpose.
The problem is, i have designed the form and tested it, when i fill out the form and submit it via email, i get a XML to the mentioneid email id, but is it possible to import the bulk amount of XML data received thru email to the MySQL database without using 3rd party XML Parser.
Does Adobe Livecycle supports any functionality where these data's after decoding or received thru email can directly be integrated in to MySQL.
Any Suggestions?
Regards,
JK

One thing that should be clear is that you do not need to purchase Reader Extensions to use Barcode Forms technology. Take a look at the 2 articles at the bottom of http://www.adobe.com/products/server/barcodedpaperforms/ they talk specifically about this issue.
However, if you do not get RE with your Barcoded Forms license your end users will not be able to save the form off-line or submit electronically (other than data-only by email). They will be able to fill-in and print the forms only.
By your post it sounds like you are getting Adobe LiveCycle Barcoded Forms and you have also licensed the decoder.
The decoder itself works with a watched folder mechanism. So what you can do is create a small Java program that simply waits for decoded output from the output directory of the decoder and then populates your MySQL database. The code should be around a day to implement.
Here is the link to the deployment article that talks about the RE requirement: http://www.adobe.com/products/server/barcodedpaperforms/pdfs/deploying_2d_barcodedpdfform s.pdf
Your Java will basically do something like this (very incomplete sample)
public class theThred extends Thread {
public void start() {
public void run() {
while (true) {
checkTheDirectoryCodeHere();
gotSomethingWriteItHere();
sleep(foreSomeNumberOfMilliseconds);
public void checkTheDirectoryCodeHere() {
Directory dir = new Directory("thePath");

Sending Web Dynpro table contents via Email

Hi,
I have a requirement where in I need to send an email from the Web Dynpro Application.
I am using JavaMail for this purpose. And I am able to send text messages to the required Email Id.
But my requirement is that I need to send the contents of one of the Web Dynpro table along with the text message.
Is it possible to send the table contents via mail?
Kindly let me know if there is any other approach.
Regards,
Shilpa B.V

Hi,
I don't think there are any methods in IWDTable or the IWDNode which can dump entire data on to something which we can pickup.
The only way is to iterate through the elements in the node and construct a big string buffer with HTML Table code and include the other part of the mail also in the same string buffer as html. Then set the MIME type of your mail to HTML and send the mail.

Email bursting send report as HTML in email body

I have question about email bursting. I created simple report and I am bursting it via email. But I would like to send report in HTML as part of email body and not as attachment.

Is there any solution?

Send report via email as xls file.

Hello from Spain,
Sorry if this is not the correct forum. It's both a forms and reports question, but I think it fits better in the reports forum. I have queried into the forums for similar questions and found some threads without any replies around this same issue. I wish I am lucky today.
I have developed some web forms which generate pdf and txt reports. The latter ones make use of desformat=delimiteddata when calling the reports. They run fine. I have also developed one form which suscribes those reports to email addresses. To do so, I am setting those email addresses in the DESNAME reports parameter and setting DESTYPE parameter as MAIL. They arrive as an attachment with pdf or txt extensions.
Now, I am required to deliver those reports as xls files. I have been reading that desformat=spreadsheet would allow me to do so (as well as formatting the reports and make them look "cuter" than by using just delimiteddata), but have been unable to do it so far. When setting desformat=spreadsheet, reports are sent via email as html attachments, and when they are opened they look awful. Is there any way I can do this? It shouldn't be a too big deal, but I feel completely unable.
Thank you,
Fernando G.

Hi Zahid
From Forms 6.0, you need to call Reports using standard SRW.Run_Product call. Please refer to the product document for other SRw calls which can be used for Forms/Reports integration. In this SRW call, you need to sent the runtime argument to Reports. In your case, write a pl/sql code which would set the destype=mail, desformat=html and desname set to the email address for reciever which you would be fetching from DB in Forms application. And then send these arguments in the SRW call to run the Reports.

Bursting Reports via email with seperate email address for each page

I have been reading "Oracle® Application Server Reports Services Publishing Reports to the Web" (most specifically chapter 15 Creating Advanced Distributions) trying to figure this out but still having difficulty getting my head around it.
I am trying to email invoices when applicable. Here is the "perfect world scenario".
Report is scheduled to run once a day.
Any qualifying invoices are picked up in the run.
If there is an email address associated with the record the invoice is sent via email. (email address would be included on report and variable)
If no email address is associated, the invoice is printed.
There could/would be several different invoices on a single run.
Does this mean I have to write dynamically write a distribution.xml file for each run or can I pass the email address as a variable to the distribution.xml?
(builder version 10.1.2.0.2)
bump
Edited by: sdortch on May 21, 2009 9:09 AM

Hi !
You're able to use Report-Variables (e.g. from a Group in the Data Model) in the distribution.xml-File to send email to different adresses.
Just bear in mind that you also need to set the "repeat-on" Property of the relevant layout section and use a "foreach"-Loop in the distribution.xml.
So, no, no "dynamic" building of xml-Files necessary (though we do it at times...).
See also "Publishing Reports to the web" for a complete reference on "burst distribution" and the components of the distribution.xml
I would, however, run the report twice, once for "all email-invoices" with email-distribution file, once for "all invoices w/o email-adress" with (probably) printer-distribution file, as "exception" handling inside a distribution.xml could be a bit awkward...
Cheers,
Jens Rettig
