Report with XML as input !

Hello,
I am hv been trying to create a simple report with an XML input but by the end of it, it doesnt give any data on the report.
I tried it with XML + SQL input, it gave me a blank report and when I tried with a pure SQL input it did give data in the report. I enabled the trace option but couldnt get to the core of the problem.
My XML & XSD file are all valid, they are auto-generated.
The report doesnt give any error either.
Any clue what the problem could be ??
Regards,
Madhu.

I think it can be done by looking at Crystal Report XI.BUTHow can I do this programatically in Java ? Thanks,Ashok

Custom action with XML type input and output parameter.

Hi,
I want to develop custom action with xml type input and/or output parameter.
Is there sample code for java side. How is the definition of input and/or output parameter and set/get methods?
does it need special .jar file to develop custom action like this?
Thanks.

Cemil - yes, you can use XML data types. Use the class
com.sap.lhcommon.xml.XMLDataType
for your parameter type. Here is a snippet from a custom action we use to log XML (instead of just returning the #text node like the default logger does):
public class XMLLogger extends ActionReflectionBase
    private String source;
    private String eventType;
    private String textMessage;
    private XMLDataType xmlMessage;
    public XMLLogger()
        log = new Logger("UserLog");
        source = DEFAULT_SOURCE;
        eventType = TYPE_INFO;
        textMessage = "";
        xmlMessage = new XMLDataType();
    public XMLDataType getXmlMessage()
        return xmlMessage;
    public void setXmlMessage(XMLDataType xmlMessage)
        this.xmlMessage = xmlMessage;
    public void Invoke(Transaction transaction, ILog ilog)
        StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
        sb.append('[');
        sb.append(source);
        sb.append("] ");
        sb.append(textMessage);
        sb.append(XMLUtils.convertXmlToString(xmlMessage));
XMLUtils is a helper class we wrote - it's just a bunch of standard Java XML boilerplate code. The important part you need to know is XMLDataType.getDocument() will return an org.w3c.dom.Document.
I hope that was enough information to help.

Oracle Reports with XML output showing data as asterik character

Hello,
I'm trying to create an Oracle report with xml output. Here is the issue I'm having some of the columns in my report are of datatype number. When I run the report and generate xml file the values for those columns(datatype number) are showing as (*) character, other columns are showing fine. But when I run the report as text output then data is fine. I don't understand why this is happening.
The property of column is Column Type - Database Scalar, Datatype - Number , width 0,-127.
Does the width has to do anything with this?
I'm using Report Builder 6.0.8.11.3, DB version 10g.
Can anyone please help me with the issue I'm having.

If the links in your example report1 and report2
follow my format stated earlier

This is what I believe

so http://machine:port/ is the port where
JBoss is running and
This should be the port that the report server is listening on

server=<YourReportServerName> is the name of
my oracle report server
so I call the above link in my current application
and the report would show up
Yes

that means (correct me if I am wrong) that my reports
would have to be deployed in OracleAS
Yes

I have to try all this yet as till this point I was
trying to run Oracle reports deployed in JBoss...

Failed to Load database information - Crystal report with XML as datasource

Hello Friends:
I am getting the attached error when i try to load the Crystal Report with XML as data source.
I have designed the crystal report with the sample XML provided with XSD schema (PFA I have attached the XML and XSD). It is working as expected on design time. But it is failing when I load it from C# code.
Note: I have referred the following DLLs of version 13.0.2000.0 in my sample application.
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Design.dll
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll
Please let me know what should be done in order to resolve this.
Thank you!

All I know is that you are using 'SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Visual Studio .NET". No idea what service pack or what version of .NET...
So. make sure you are on SP 9:
SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio: Updates & Runtime Downloads
Search for KBA 1525432 (search box is in top right corner) and follow the instructions there.
Remove your reference to CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Design.dll
Add the following references:
CrystalDecisions.Shared
CrystalDecisions.ReportSource
CrystalDecisions.Web (if web app)
CrystalDecisions.Windows (if win app)
I'd also recommend commenting out the export code for now; one step at a time. Get it to work in the viewer, then move on... No Big Bangs

Concurrent Request report with XML Publisher

I have Concurrent program (report) which I modified to work with XML Publisher. I change the output format to XML at the concurrent program page. Then I create the data defenition and template at XML Publisher administrator. Then I uploaded and assign the RTF template as the default template for this concurrent program.
Now I can run this report and get the output in XML report publisher .
But when I am running directly as concurrent request , I dont get any output. What am I doing wrong?

Is it possible to do that?
Regards,
Fendy

Yes, I got it working.
Follow the instructions as mentioned in the User Guide, it will workout well.
1. Create a concurrent program with "XDODTEXE" as the Executable.
2. Create the data definition and associate a data template (this is with your sql) to it and and link the above concurrent program with this data definition.
Let me know if you need more details. Good thing about this is that you do not have to move any files on to your unix server (like in the case of oracle reports).

Label report with user defined input -

I am trying to make a report that will print out the data onto avery labels 5163(which is 2 across u2013 5down =total 10 labels per sheet) with my information. The program already sets your boundaries for the labels so thatu2019s not a issue.
My current select statement works somewhat : if I enter 1 inventory.itemnum and whatever qty I want it prints fine. However when I enter multiple inventory.itemnums it prints each one of those itemnums at whatever qty I enter in the second parameter. So say I enter 2 itemnums and enter qty 2 to print- I get 2 labels of each item num. Currently I this format I have the second parameter set to NOT allow multiple fields u2013 however when I change this to allow my report fails u2013 please see my info and layout stuff below
Here is what I have:
INVENTORY.ITEMNUM} = {?Control Id:} and
{Sheet1_.Column1} <= {?number of labels}
Inventory.itemnum u2013field from database
{?Control Id:}---parameter 1
{?number of labels}---parameter 2
{Sheet1_.Column1}----excel table brought in as secondary database to serve as count feature for report u2013 currently set at 20 but can change from 20 to 10 or higher- whatever qty I want. The most labels I will need for any 1 item is 24 u2013 but I can print 2 sheets of 10 then 1 of 4 if we reduce it to qty 10 in the table.
I have 2 parameters that prompt for data
Parameter 1: it prompts for .itemnum (I have this parameter set to allow multiple inputs of inventory.itemnum)
Parameter 2: it prompts for qty of labels needed. currently not set to allow multiple numbers as I get a failure when I change my parameter to this.
As my info above sits I can enter 1 random inventory.itemnum (parameter 1) and a qty (parameter 2)(1-20 u2013 which is set by a table I built in excel 1-20 u2013 above which is sheet1_.column1)
What I want to be able to do is
1.     (Parameter 1 here)Enter inventory.itemnums from random qtyu2019s of 1-10 at any given input time from user prompt in parameter
2.     (parameter 2 here)Print label of qtys ranging from 1 label per each item to as many as 10 labels per item
a.     For example: I enter
b.     Parameter 1:
c.     Xitem1.itemnum
d.     Xitem2.itemnum
e.     Xitem3.itemnum
f.     Parameter 2:
g.     Qty 1- is the amount of labels needed for xitem1(from parameter 1)
h.     Qty 3- is the amount of labels needed for xitem2(u201C u201D)
i.     Qty 6- is the amount of labels needed for xitem3(u201C u201C)
3.     I need the qtys in parameter 2(labels to print) to work with the inventory.itemnums as they are entered in parameter 1.
I have tried using arrays but they force me to use the same amount of data that I have clauses. Which does not work because I have varying amounts of labels needed at different time-If I have 2 labels and have more clauses than this the report fails. I will not always have 2 or 3 labels to make maybe more maybe less.
Here is a example of what I was trying with arrays:
{field.xitem}=(?item.num)[1] and
{?qty}[1]>={numbertable.number})or
{field.xitem}=(?item.num)[2] and
{?qty}[2]>={numbertable.number})or etc.,etcu2026u2026
This would force me to input as many item.itemnums and qty labels as there are arrays or the report would fail.

XSL and FSG report with XML output

I have 5 FSG Reports combined into one reportset. all these reports output type as XML. Once the reportset is submitted and all the FSG reports are completed , i want to call a XSL program which will combine all the 5 FSG XML outputs. Please advice me how to use the xsl program to combine all the FSG XML Outputs.

Phew thats gonna be some XSL bearing in mind how complex the FSG XML is. How much data are we talking about here ? There might be a simpler solution as long as there is not a huge amount of data.

Can I define simple Developer 6i reports with XML?

Hi,
this may sound far fetched, but can I define report definitions
in XML and convert it to RDF?
My RDFs would have simple layout - one record of a table on of
page, in form layout. It would be much easier - and this way I
could redefine it any time - than to user the report wizard in
Developer 6i.
TIA,
Tamas Szecsy

Yes you can. You should look up the STYPE parameter of
rwcon60.exe which one of its possible values is XML and as your
DTYPE use the PDF. The report builders help has covered the
details on this.
Good luck,
