Reporting : is it possible in HTMLDB?

I have a redemption system.
Over here the user requirement is to print the request forms by just entering the range.
Is such reporting possible in HTMLDB.
The sme way we do in Oracle Reports,Excel.
Just provide the range and get the entire lot printed.
Thanks in advance.
Ameya,

Hi Ameya,
I don't pretend to know the "best" way to get printed reports. But here is what my team is doing:
For "regular" reports, ie lists of data with sub-totals and grand totals, we are using Discoverer together with HTML DB.
For MSWord mail merge documents we:
- Create a report that selects the data.
- Export the data to a CSV file.
- Open a Mail Merge template that has been configured to use the CSV file as its Datasource.
- You can optionally store the MSWord template in the Oracle database (see the HowTo for uploading and downloading files).
These two strategies seem to be working for us.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Patrick Cimolini.

WEB reports can it possible to access from out side domein

Hi, i want information whether WEB reports can be access from

Hi all,
WEB reports can it possible to access from out side domein. If yes please tell me how..

In WebI report, is that possible to show ZERO in NULL fields?

in WebI report, is that possible to show ZERO in NULL fields? crystal report has no issue, but i could not find a way to set ZERO to NULL field
can you tell?

Bram,
This formula you used above is corrcet but is returning you a character '0' and when a descending sort is applied character values will be at the top.
So , apply the formula 'ToNumber' on the value returned form the above formula :-
ToNumber(above formula)
And then it will change 0 to number and give you the exact sort order.

Create an Oracle Reports Parameter form application in HTMLDB

I am investigating whether I can satisfy following requirement using HTMLDB and if yes, then what are the steps to be followed.
The idea is simple. Store Oracle Reports name, parameter names, default values etc. in a table and write an application which will display a list of reports on your left, on clicking a report, use the param names stored in the table to display a form to accept values for each parameter and the submit button calls a URL pointing to the Oracle Reports Server.
This can be done easily using Oracle Forms but I am investigating if this can be done using HTMLDB since it's 100% thin client.
Any comments, hints etc. appreciated.
Thanks,
Manish

Thanks.
I had already seen the how-to article but my requirement was a little different since each Param Name, Value will be stored in seperate record. If a report has 4 parameters, then the table will have 4 records, one for each parameter. Here's a sample table structure that I am using.
rep_name varchar2(100)
,param_name varchar2(100)
,sort_order integer
,param_len varchar2(100)
,param_data_type varchar2(100)
,param_required varchar2(1) default 'N'
,param_description varchar2(100)
,default_value varchar2(1000)
,lov_sql varchar2(1000)
I was in fact able to achieve what I want by using a Tabular Form with the parameter description display only and default value updateable and it's submit button can be redirected to the reports URL with form fields substitution. I will use cgicmd.dat to map username/password so that it's not visible in the url.
My additional questions:
1. As per the table structure above, I have a lov_sql text field. Is it possible to create an LOV on the tabular form using this lov_sql?
2. Above the tabular form, I want to display a drop-down-list with a list of reports. When a user selects a list-item, I want to refresh the page with it's tabular form showing parameters for that report. Kind of parameterizing the Form display. Is this possible? If not what are the alternatives?
Thanks,
Manish

Reporting Services Point - possibly permissions issue

I'm having a really hard time configuring a working reporting services point in my test SCCM 2012 R2 environment and was hoping someone might be able to help me work out what's gone wrong.
My servers are WS2008 R2. SQL Server 2008 R2 is installed on the primary site server and holds the site database. I installed SSRS onto a separate site server and added it as a reporting services point. This worked, and I see the list of
reports in the SCCM admin console. However, when I try to run a report - either from the console or via web browser - I get this message:
The default value expression for the report parameter 'usertokensids' contains an error. There are no logon servers available to service the logon request. (rsRuntimeErrorInExpression)
   at Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ServerReportSoapProxy.OnSoapException(SoapException e)
   at Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.Internal.Soap.ReportingServices2005.Execution.RSExecutionConnection.ProxyMethodInvocation.Execute[TReturn](RSExecutionConnection connection, ProxyMethod`1 initialMethod, ProxyMethod`1 retryMethod)
   at Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.Internal.Soap.ReportingServices2005.Execution.RSExecutionConnection.LoadReport(String Report, String HistoryID)
   at Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ServerReport.EnsureExecutionSession()
   at Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ServerReport.SetParameters(IEnumerable`1 parameters)
   at Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.AdminConsole.SrsReporting.ReportViewerWindowsForms.SetParameterValues_DoWork(Object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)
SMSAdminUI.log shows this message:
[25, PID:3096][06/12/2014 11:24:05] :[fqdnofprimaryserver] : The request failed with HTTP status 503: Server Error.
Now, the reason I think this is a permissions issue is because srsrp.log on the Reporting Point server shows this:
(!) Error retrieving folders - [Login failed for user 'domain\reportingservercomputername$'.].
(I've removed the actual name here, obviously.)
I'm really puzzled about what's going on here, what is trying to authenticate with the SSRS server's machine credentials, and what for. Looking in SQL Server Management Studio on the primary site server which hosts the SQL database, I can see that
the account has a login listed and it has its default schema listed as DBO. On the SSRS server, in Reporting Services Configuration Manager, the Report Server Service Account is set to a dedicated domain user account. The Current Report Server
Database Credential is set to my own Windows login using Current User - Integrated Security - I can't seem to get it to accept the dedicated user account.
Can anyone help me figure out what's gone wrong and how I fix it, please? I'm by no means a SQL person, and I'm at my wit's end with this!
Thanks,
M

The plot thickens.
The SSRS server has these:
"The report server has detected a possible denial of service attack. The report server is dropping requests for service from the IP address 192.168.113.163" (this is the IP address of the primary site system, which hosts the SQL database)
and then
"Report Server Windows Service (MSSQLSERVER) cannot connect to the report server database"
The primary site system, meanwhile, has got thousands of these:
"Login failed for user 'DOMAIN\SSRSSERVERNAME$'. Reason: Token-based server access validation failed with an infrastructure error. Check for previous errors. [CLIENT: 192.168.113.164]" (that's the IP of the SSRS server)
The Windows firewall is off for both systems. They're on an isolated test network. I still don't understand where the setting is that tells it to make SQL queries using the SSRS server's machine account, rather than the dedicated service account
I created.
Any more ideas? Thanks for your help so far - I really appreciate it!

Interactive Report - Is it possible?

Hi again, I wondered if it possible in SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 R2, to create a report which an end user can input Comments into.
The comments would be free text and wouldn't for part of the Views/Table where the Datasource comes from. This is purely a report is created and a user has the option to enter a comment which can be fed back to the Analyst who
created the report.

Hi ProfessorFudger,
According to your description, you want to create a report that the end user could enter the comment, then the comment could be sent to the report creator, right?
Reporting Services is used for rendering the report with data retrieved from datasource. In Reporting Services, we can retrieve data from the datasource then design a report, after the report processed, data is fixed on the report. So it’s not supported
to have the end users enter comment and fed back to report creator. For your requirement, it can’t be achieved currently.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best regards,

Interactive Report - is it possible to stop a column being hidden?

I have an interactive report region where i have a column that has a link that performs an action, in this case it links to a screen where the user can then add a row. I want to make this column mandatory and not let the user hide it. I can remove other functionality, but cant seem to control the hide/show functionality.
anybody got any ideas?

Dear Hemanth,
To your question:
"Is it possible to stop a campaign from being cancelled if it has purchase orders attached to it, using standard functionality".
This might be possible with a BADI implementation. In enhancement spot CRM_MKTPL there exist a BAdI CRM_MTKPL_OL_OBJ where the interface method CHECK_BEFORE_DELETE is offered.

Adding Additional Parameter in Oracle Reports -- Is this Possible?

Hi,
Please help me with this predicament: There are several reports being called through a single form, wherein a common parameter list is being used. Now I need to add another parameter called BLANKPAGES to one report only. Is it possible for me to put this script inside that one report's trigger?
ADD_PARAMETER ( pl_id , ' BLANKPAGES ' , TEXT_PARAMETER , ' NO ' ) ;
What are my other options?
Thanks in advance,
Jansen

Try this
if :report_name = 'NEW_REPORT' (user substr if needed) then
ADD_PARAMETER ( pl_id , ' BLANKPAGES ' , TEXT_PARAMETER , ' NO ' ) ;
end if;

Nested Sub Reports - is it possible?

Hi, Please could someone tell me if it is possible to have a sub report within a sub report. I have tried without success. If not what is the alternative? Thanks in advance
Amir

Before you go and submit to Idea Place think about this...
Report Design Example:
Main report returns 100 values which are linked to the first subreport. Query sent to the DB for the first 100 values and passed to the subreport, for each value returned a new query is sent to the DB for each value returned by the main report.
101 queries processed by the DB server.
Now say you pass that value into another subreport within the subreport....
Original query sent from the main report, the first value is then sent to the first subreport and then that value is sent to the third subreport.
1 -> 1 - > 1, in total you have:
1 -> 100 -> 100 or 1 * ( 100 * 100 ) = 10001 queries being processed by the DB Server.... And this is simplied, image it your main report returned 100,000 values....
So no, the whole point of using subreports is to use them for different data sources. You can filter your data and use Groups in the place of subreports, then you are unlimited ( sort of ) as to how many drill downs ( subreports ) you can go....
Thanks

Hierarchy Report - is this possible through Crystal Report???

Hello friends
We have a requirment as follow:
In Row : Hierarchy
In Column: Qty

Col: Level2, Level3, Qty
please let me know whether its possible through Crystal Report or not,,,I tried out this in BEx (BW) but we cant do that

Hi Aloke,
This is possible,
Create a group on Level1

Edited by: Alok Kashyap on Feb 2, 2009 9:03 AM

Hi Alok,
As I understand you want to set different levels of hierarchies for different Columns objects in the report.
BO doesnu2019t have the concept of Row and Column Level Hierarchy because when you select any value BO Select all values in column we canu2019t refer any single value in column and we canu2019t refer all related values as record thus Row level hierarchy is not possible.
You can use Custom Hierarchies to set different hierarchies for different objects.
Lets Say you Want Object in Column A to follow Level 1 include that object in Level1 Hierarchy.
Define Level 2, Level 3 Hierarchy and Include Object in Column 2 in those hierarchies thus Column 2 follows Level 2 and Level 3 Hierarchy.
When there is confusion about which Hierarchy Level to follow when at same level it asks user which way to go.
I Hope this Helpsu2026
Thanksu2026

Dynamically report orientation change. possible ?

Hello to everyone
Do anyone know if it is possible to have a report in two different orientation (landscape and portrait) in one shot ?
If yes how can i do to solve the problem ?
thanks bye

If you are running the report using RUN_PRODUCT then it is possible. Create parameter list and add the parameter:
Declare
pl_id PARAMLIST;
Begin
pl_id := create_paramater_list('ornt');
add_parameter(pl_id, 'ORIENTATION', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'LANDSCAPE');
RUN_PRODUCT(REPORTS, REPORT_NAME, SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, pl_id, NULL);
DESTROY_PARAMETER_LIST(pl_id);
pl_id := create_paramater_list('ornt');
add_parameter(pl_id, 'ORIENTATION', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'PORTRAIT');
RUN_PRODUCT(REPORTS, REPORT_NAME, SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, pl_id, NULL);
DESTROY_PARAMETER_LIST(pl_id);
END;
This is just the basic code. Some refinement is needed.

In custom report, is it possible to get value of field only? No style info?

I need to build the following string in the results of a custom report:
http://my.domain.org/myapp?A1=<#ORACLE.FIELD#>
but when I run my report as a portlet, I get this instead, which leads to a "Page not Found" -
http://my.domain.org/myapp?A1=<FONT CLASS=PortletText1><STYLEINFO PortletText1>ORACLE FIELD VALUE</STYLEINFO>
When running my custom report as a portlet, is there a way to get the value of the field only, without the style info?
Thanks for an help offered....
