Reports 2.5 Printing in sequence

I have 4 reports that need to run in sequence. They all have common parameter which need to get passed from one report to another. I have a customer who has multiple projects. If I run the report for a customer
what has to happen is report one need to run for that project, report 2 for that project, 3 and 4th report and go back to report one for the next project for the same customer.
How do I achicve this. If I use srw.run_report I get report 1 for all projects and 2 for all projects etc

Your form needs to loop through the customer's projects and call the reports for each project, passing in the project as the parameter, not just the customer.

Hello
Search the Oracle Reports Online help for "Printer Code Before" :
Printer Code Before property
Printer Codes are references to printer escape sequences that define special printing instructions (for example, special font sizes or highlighting) for the object. The Printer Code Before property specifies the printer escape sequence to be executed before each line of the object. The printer escape sequences are inserted after the object is triggered to print but before it has actually printed.

Print customized report on client printer

I'm evaluating HTMLDB as an option to some MS Access applications we have in place and I have to add I'm a new user with no experience on HTMLDB.
One of my applications basically generate a report to be printed on pre-printed forms. For what I've read the reporting capabilities of HTMLDB are very limited, so I'm not sure how we can implement this type of reports with HTMLDB.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks

I'm evaluating HTMLDB as an option to some MS Access
applications we have in place and I have to add I'm a
new user with no experience on HTMLDB. HTML DB is a far superior development environment to MS Access. I did Access for quite a while and don't ever really want to look back. Although, I'm forced to sometimes. I think you'll really come to appreciate HTML DB pretty quickly.
One of my applications basically generate a report to
be printed on pre-printed forms. Printing to preprinted forms will get tricky. Basically, you're going to have to work with standard HTML constructs (generated by the Oracle server of course) to create your page output. I'm not saying it's impossible but it will be a significant challenge to line up your data output with preprinted forms. Especially given the variability of browsers.
Could be that someone has more experience with some other reporting (e.g. Oracle Reports) that could accomodate your need better than HTML DB page templates.
I'm sure everyone here would be interested to hear how your evaluation goes. Keep us posted. Good luck.

AR aging report does not print alphabetically by customer name in 8.8

AR aging report does not print alphabetically by customer name in version 8.8.
It is possible to create a custom layout for the receivables aging summary report (to print alphabetically by BP name) to overcome this problem. However, itu2019s not possible for the u201Cdetailed receivables aging reportu201D or u201Ccustomer statement reportu201D.
Why has SAP changed this functionality? In version 2007 SAP takes the order of the rows set on the screen unless other order is specified in the layout.
How can we make the u201Cdetailed receivables aging reportu201D and u201Ccustomer statement reportu201D print alphabetically by customer name?
Steps to reproduce:
Business partners > Business partner reports > Aging > customer receivables aging
Doubleclick on customer name to sort it in alphabetical order.
Click on preview and select u201Creceivables aging summary reportu201D.
The system layouts do not print by customer name in alphabetical order.
Click on preview and select u201Cdetailed receivables aging reportu201D. The system layouts do not print by customer name in alphabetical order.
Also, customer statement report does not print by customer name in alphabetical order.
In SAP 2007 versions, when a marketing document or aging report is printed, SAP takes the order of the rows set on the screen unless other order is specified in the layout.
In SAP 8.8 although it works the same way for marketing documents, it doesnu2019t work like this for Aging reports.
I was able to change the order for the u201CReceivables Aging Summary Reportu201D only. We cannot overwrite a System report, I had to create a new layout called: u201CBusiness Partner Aging (Summary) (Alphabetically Sorted)u201D.
I couldnu2019t set up the order based on BP Name for the other 2 options: Detailed Receivables Aging Report and Customer Statement Report (One page per Customer).
Iu2019ve checked print settings and properties, and I donu2019t see any way of changing the default order for these reports.

Reported it to SAP support + they plan to fix it in a future patch.

CRVS2010 Beta 2 - report does not print in Landscape mode correctly

I am using Crystal Reports Beta 2 for Visual Studio 2010 on Windows XP. I am trying to print a report in landscape mode. The WPF Crystal Report Viewer displays the report correctly in landscape view. When I print it, it moves all the data to the center of the page, prints it in smaller font and to the left and cuts off a lot of the data on the right hand side.
I have tried various different suggested solutions from reading other forums and nothing seems to work. Is this a known Crystal Report Viewer issue?
Solutions I have already tried:
1. Page setup under Crystal Reports - selected no printer (optimize for screen display)
2. Page setup under Crystal Reports - checked dissociate formatting page size and printer paper size
3. Setting paper orientation and page orientation at run-time to landscape.
4. Printing to different printers
Something to note, I can export this report as a .pdf file and it prints perfectly from adobe. This only seems to be an issue when printing directly from the WPF Crystal Report Viewer to the printer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! I have been stuck on this issue for a while...
Thanks!

Hi Sharon,
There have been issues with printing and printers in CR 2008 and the same routines are in CR 2010. The patches we have done to help with standard paper sizes in CR 2008 are not in the Beta releases.
Not sure if they will make it into the GA release next month. As a work around I suggest you continue exporting to PDF and then printing the PDF file until they have been resolved and patches are available.
Thank you
Don

Hi Heidi
I have already tried printername := 'I.T Printer'; but result is same.
This is also my default printer and I tried to add / remove the following coding
Add_Parameter(pl_id, 'DESNAME', TEXT_PARAMETER, PRINTER);
but in both cased I received the same error.
I also tried to print thru HOST command as follows
the_username := Get_Application_Property(USERNAME);
     the_password := Get_Application_Property(PASSWORD);
     the_connect := Get_Application_Property(CONNECT_STRING);
the_command := 'rwrun60 report=c:\wegt001r.rdf userid= '||the_username||'/'||the_password||'@'||the_connect||' DESTYPE=Printer BACKGROUND=NO BATCH=YES ERRFILE=c:\reports\error.log LOGFILE=c:\reports\joblog.log p_eq_nbr='''||'TESTMKI'''||' p_wt_gkey=118306';
Host( the_command );
Host command displays correctly but no printing.
I then change my command as follows
the_command := 'rwrun60 report=c:\wegt001r.rdf userid=test/test@test DESTYPE=Printer BACKGROUND=NO BATCH=YES ERRFILE=c:\reports\error.log LOGFILE=c:\reports\joblog.log p_eq_nbr='''||'TESTMKI'''||' p_wt_gkey=118306'; and now report prints on printer.
But I cannot hard coded the username, password and connect.
Thanks,

Can not print report directly to printer.

Hi,
We are using Crystal Report Server for reporting in our project.
The version we are using is Crystal Report Server XI R2 and Crystal Report Server XI R2 SP 2.
Please kindly advice us on the following issues we faced:
- Can not print report directly to printer.
The print button on the Crystal Report Viewer prints the report to pdf and user have to click "Print" again in the pdf file. This is unusual and not convenient. As we have hundreds of reports to print, is there a way we can print the reporrt directly to printer?
- "Set to Null"
In the default interface of the Crystal Report View, there's is this "set to null" check box that we can not remove. Is there a way to do without it?
Thank you,
Kenny Tew

Morning Kenny,
The printer settings are in server management console. Additionally see what settings you have setup for the printer for the report in the server. If it is setup to use End User printer then check your End user machine settings and make sure the printer is setup as a default printer on his/her machine.
Please let us know how you get along with the issue.
As far as "Set to Null" I am not sure where it is set up. A screenshot of it might help understanding it better?
Many thanks
Regards
Jehanzeb
Edited by: Jehanzeb Navid on Oct 6, 2008 11:07 AM
Is this issue on all computers or only one computer?
I have just tested this on my colleague machine and it asks for default printer and not pdf however on mine I setup for pdf.

Form 6i printing report directly to printer

Hi Professionals,
I am in badly need of help to print my barcode report directly to printer from form, currently it is working fine if i make it preview first and then user has to select network printer to print, but user is not accepting that manual step, and therefore we are unable to launch our material management module.
MY CURRENT CODE WHICH WORKING FINE WITH PREVIEW..................
add_parameter(PL_ID, 'DESTYPE', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'PREVIEW');
add_parameter(PL_ID, 'MAXIMIZE', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'YES');
add_parameter(pl_id,'paramform',TEXT_PARAMETER,'NO');
add_parameter(pl_id,'STR',TEXT_PARAMETER,:IM_STR_ISSUE_MASTER.STR_CODE);

add_parameter(pl_id,'COPIES',TEXT_PARAMETER,:IM_STR_ISSUE_DETAILS.QTY);
RUN_PRODUCT(REPORTS,'F:\IMS\REPORTS\STOCK_IN_BARCODE.rep',SYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,PL_ID);
IF I CHANGE IT TO THE FOLLOWING FOR DIRECT PRINTING IT IS NOT WORKING
ADD_PARAMETER(PL_ID, 'DESTYPE', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'PRINTER');
ADD_PARAMETER(PL_ID, 'DESNAME', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'SOLABEL');
I appreciate any efforts to resolve this issue.
Thanks

Guide to Implement local printing on client in 10gas/9ias
To archive this goal we have used orarrp(Oracle Reports Remote Printing Utility), which can be downloaded from the OTN website http://otn.oracle.com/sample/products/reports/index.html.
Steps:
1.Add the required ORARRP mime types to the Oracle HTTP Server configuration.
(Note: This will be the Oracle HTTP Server belonging to the Oracle Application Server 10g/9ias middle (BI & Forms) tier)
Do this manually by editing the httpd.conf
or
via the Oracle Application Server 10g AS Console e.g.
Navigate to the Middle Tier Components Page
Click on HTTP_Server -> Administration -> MIME Types
NOTE: MIME types added in httpd.conf are as per requirement mode in which report has to be run e.g. pdf, rt(rtf) and html etc. syntax for manual entry in httpd.conf is given below.
AddType application/x-orarrp-text     rrpt
AddType application/x-orarrp-ps     rrpp
AddType application/x-orarrp-pdf     rrpa
AddType application/x-orarrp-rt     rrpr
AddType application/x-orarrp-ini     rrpi
AddType application/x-orarrp-html     rrph
2. Create an aliasmatch in forms.conf pointing to a physical directory \tmp- for example, directory will be c:\tmp
Do this by manually editing the forms.conf
or
via the Oracle Application Server 10g AS Console e.g.
Navigate to the Middle Tier Components Page
Click on HTTP_Server -> Administration -> Advanced Server Properties -> forms.conf
Add a line like :
# Virtual path for physical directory of temp
AliasMatch ^/tmp/(..*) "C:\tmp/$1"
** IMPORTANT NOTE **
The advantages of making the changes via EM / AS console, rather than editing the files manually, are:
- the EM / AS console will put the mime type entries in the correct place
- the EM / AS console automatically issues a 'dcmctl updateconfig' which synchronizes the file changes with the Infrastructure Metadata Repository
- the EM / AS console will do the required restart of the HTTP Server component
(Only the HTTP Server needs to be stopped and restarted – Oracle AS 10g components can remain up and running)
If the changes are made manually then the following commands must be issued after the changes to httpd.conf and forms.conf have been made.
Run these command at run prompt
DRIVE:\oracle\FRHome_1\dcm\bin\dcmctl.bat updateconfig -ct ohs -v -d
(to synchronize the changes with the Metadata Repository)
DRIVE:\oracle\FRHome_1\dcm\bin\dcmctl.bat stop -ct ohs -v -d
DRIVE:\oracle\FRHome_1\dcm\bin\dcmctl.bat start -ct ohs -v -d
where DRIVE: is the drive where \oracle\frhome_1\ is installed.
3. Copy and run orarrp.exe on client machine in program files\orarrp\ folder.
4. Set value of options '”choose_printer=no” in orarrp.ini created at above folder.
5. Add following lines in your code of run_report procedure.
In declare section
vc_file varchar2(225);
In begin block add
/* Generate a pseudo unique filename */
vcfile:=:global.user_code||to_char(sysdate,'YYYYMMDDHHMISS');
vcfile:=vcfile||'.rrpr';
/* In this example - output will be rtf so adding .rrpr extension */
set_report_object_property(repid, report_filename,store_var);
set_report_object_property(repid, report_server, :global.r_server);
set_report_object_property(repid, report_execution_mode, batch);
set_report_object_property(repid, report_comm_mode, SYNCHRONOUS);
set_report_object_property(repid, report_destype, file);
set_report_object_property(repid, report_desformat,'rtf');
set_report_object_property(repid,REPORT_DESNAME,'C:\tmp\'||vcFile);
---- path can be made dynamic by making a database entry in makess.path_entry for tmp folder and
---using proc_path procedure from path lib.
:GLOBAL.PrintOutPut := vcFile;
In Run report section make following change:
     vc_reportserverjob := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid,pi_id);
     report_job_id:=substr(vc_reportserverjob,length(:global.r_server+2,length(vc_reportserverjob));
     v_rep_status:=report_object_status(vc_reportserverjob);
     if v_rep_status='FINISHED' then
          web.show_document('/tmp/'||:global.printoutput,'_blank');
     else
          message ('error when running report'||v_rep_status);
end if;

NEED HELP !!
Regards,

The printer has to be known on the server where the Reports service runs.
Also, the user who runs the Reports service has to have access to that printer. If you are running on Windows, Reports Service runs as Local system by default. Change that to a real (domain) user, who has access to the printer.

Crystal Reports export and print fails with SSL / https but works with http

Windows 2008 Server, 32-bit (IIS7)
ASP.NET 2.0
Ajax 1.0
Crystal Reports version 10.5.3700.0
http: printing works, export works
https: printing not working, only export to MS Excel and MS Word work.
I am able to generate reports using both http and https, and the toolbar icons are all showing. However, I am unable to print or export properly with SSL.
Printing prompts me with a select printer window, and then a window 'Retrieving Page 1' follow by two messages from Crystal Print Control both stating:
A communication error occured. Printing will be stopped.
Exporting generates various errors depending on which export method is being selected (however Excel and Word work over https).
I've found the same problem on this site and other forums, but never a resolution to get exporting and printing to work with SSL. Will someone please provide me assistance or possibly relay what settings they're using if they have Crystal Reports export or printing working over SSL in IIS7? Everything works fine when I change the address from https to http.
Please let me know if I can help by providing further information. We've gone through a great deal of possible solutions with code and I'm currently looking in to IIS settings again.
Thank you.

Thanks Ludek. I got it by searching KB number.
Unfortunately, it didn’t fix my problem even my IE (IE8 and IE 9) has correct setting. I double check my version. PrintControl.CAB is version 10.2.0.1146. we use VS 2005 Crystal report and VB .NET. It works fine on HTTP. But when we use HTTPS (SSL Certificate from go daddy).
1: Crystal report export

            Export to RPt, Rich text format: It says “Internet Explorer cannot download ReportView.aspx from my site. Internet Explorer was not able to open this internet site. the requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try it again later”
            Export to PDF : nothing happened.
2: Print:
