Reports 6i parameter-2 is dependent on parameter-1

Hi,
In 6i,
Parameter-1 & 2 are of list of values and 2 is dependent on parameter -1.
How to get this done in parameter form.
ex;
parameter -1 -----> p_deptno
parameter-2 --------> p_empno,
Now at parameter form i want to
get all employee which are in department choosen is parameter-1.
How to do this.
Help me.
Thaks in advance.

Hi..
I was able to incorporate the list of values in 10g - based on the same sample from the Metalink.
I had the need to do it from three tables and also incorporate the "ALL" value in the p2 and p3 params so the user can either select a particular one or just choose "ALL" to run it for all the values.
I was able to modify the code - after some trial and errors - it now works perfectly..

Report using Parameter Field

Hi,
I have designed one report using Parameter Field which is Cost Code (string).
When I run my report, I ask to enter cost code. When I enter cost code 30, I get report for all transaction of cost code 30 and 300.
How could I avoid this problem.
Thanks
Mithani

Try with this
{Project_cost.EXPENSES_Code} IN {?Cost Code}
and also
Check the query formed after giving the input parameter. Goto Database --> Show Sql Query.

Report 9i parameter form problem, is it a bug?

Hi all,
I am using Dev 9i IDS, rel. 9.0.2, running in windows 2000. I've been converting my forms and reports from previous versions to 9i, and I came across an issue with the report's parameter form.
First, I thought it could be a problem during the conversion , but to make sure I developed a new form and a new report straight in the 9i IDS suite, using Scott's DEPT table. The new form is simple having a button to call the new report which is based on the DEPT table and accepts an user's input for a dept. no.
The same problem occurs:
- in the form, if I set PARAMFORM=HTML then it could not open the report parameter form, hence the report could not run.
- if I set PARAMFORM=YES, then the report parameter form is displayed, then I can enter a value for the department number. BUT, when I clicked the Submit Query button the report failed, and I received the following error:
REP-52007: Parameter form format error.

I have no problem integrating others reports that don't have parameter form using run_report_object. And, I've checked and tried different ways of manipulating the parameter value using to_number in the report's where clause etc., it never worked.
I guess the only workaround is to create the parameter form in Forms builder. Is there other ways of doing it , or is it a bug of the 9i IDS suites that needs to be fixed?
- Thanks

Hi Frank,
There's a note published on Metalink, note 139546.1, showing a workaround to thi problem. but
- it is rather lengthy and confusing, may not be practical .
- it only applies to Forms and Reports 6i.
However, it shows that the problem comes from 2 items in the source code of the parameter form which is produced by the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT built-in:
1. <form method=post action=""> where action contains an empty string, it needs to have a valid entry, e.g.
<form method=post action="http://hostname:port/cgi/rwci60.exe?">
2. <input name="hidden_run_parameters" type=hidden value=""> where hidden value is also empty. It should contains all parameter values passed to the report parameter form, e.g.
<input name="hidden_run_parameters" type=hidden value="report%3test+destype%3Dcache+userid%Dscott.....">
And that is what I found, but I am reluctant to try it in 9i IDS, hoping Oracle has a better solution than that.
Tho.

Report without Parameter form

I would like to generate report without Parameter form being displayed.How to do?

If you use Forms to pass parameters to Reports, use add_parameter('PARAMFORM',text_parameter,'NO'). This will "disable" the parameter form.

Does BOXI support crystal reports with parameter references in formulas?

I am designing a report in Crystal Reports XI Developer that contains parameters, which are passed to a stored procedure and are also used within formulas ( in Crystal Syntax ie. {?FORMAT_ID} ) in the report itself.
I can run the report successfully in CRXI Developer. The formulas use the correct values from the parameters entered during execution and everything looks good.
I then deploy the report to Business Objects Enterprise XI. I do all of the things necessary to manage the report including setting up the proper database connection information and default parameter values.
When I run the report using the Crystal Report Viewer, I get the following error message:
Error in File Forecasting.rpt:
Error in formula <Report Format>.
'if (not isNull({?FORMAT_ID} ) ) then
This field name is not known.
Details: errorKind
This happens when I press the "Preview" button in the Manage Object dialog from Crystal or when I run the report using InfoView.
I have changed the formulas and it doesn't seem to matter what the specific content of the formula is; other than the existence of a parameter reference in the formula. If I comment out the parameter and replace it with a hard-coded value, it gets through the formula fine.
Does Business Objects Enterprise XI support crystal reports with parameter references in the formulas?
Thanks,
Tim H.

Hi,
In Crystal Reports under File -> Report Options >check convert Null Values to default > Verify on first refresh > Verify stored procedures on first refresh.
This corrected the issue by allowing the query engine time to locate those columns and map them to the query being sent by the report.
The convert null values was added because those field were being used in the record selection and grouping.
Regards,
Vinay

Problem in Runinng a report with parameter form through Run_Report_object

Hi,
I am trying to run reports thought RUN_REPORT_OBJECT built-in. It works fine in following cases
* Run a report without parameter Form
* Run a report with parameter form by passing parameters through parameter
List.
But it did not o\work in following cases.
* Run a report with parameter form by passing parameters through setting the
REPORT_OTHER option of SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY built-in.
* Run a report with parameter form by using Reports own parameter form.
In first case it says un able to run report and does not even submitt the job to the AS. In the second case its submits the job but when i show it with WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT, it opens the parameter form and when i run the report after filling the parameters, it displays an error page.
I am using 9iDS and 10g AS, and 10g Database. Please help me.
Mohib.

Mohib,
Run a report with parameter form by passing parameters through setting the REPORT_OTHER option of SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY built-in.[...] it says un able to run report and does not even submitt the job to the AS
This sound like a user error to me and you want to check the parameters and maybe look at the Reports Queue Manager for the exact error message
Run a report with parameter form by using Reports own parameter form.
See:

and

Reports Portlet Parameter Form LOV Format

Hi,
I have created several LOV's that I want to use in the Reports Portlet Parameter Form for running Oracle Reports, but the format I am choosing when creating the LOV's is not showing correctly on the parameter form. I am picking 'Check Box' and 'Radio Group' for several of the LOV's, but they are still displaying as Dropdowns on the parameter for. Am I doing something wrong here, can the parameter form show check boxes and radio buttons?
Thanks

hello,
i am afraid the answer to both questions is 'no'. i would suggest you create some HTML/JSP parameter forms for your reports. the parameter form editor of reports is very limited and for more complex requirements we suggest using other tools (or the JSP web source of reports, which is available from 9i onwards).
thanks,
ph.

Disabling the 'Schedule' tab on the Reports Portlet Parameter Form

Hi,
I have deployed several Oracle Reports through Portal using the built in Reports Portlet Parameter Form and I was wondering if anyone knows how to disable the 'Schedule' tab located on this form. I would like users to run the reports but not to schedule them.
Thanks

Hi .
I forgot to say that, the reports is an XML report .

rajesh
Hi.
I am facing a problem with the parameter form in reports 10g. The number of parameters in this report are huge. After designing the parameter form , i save and close the report. Now if i re-open the report to do changes, the width and height of the parameter form is reduced (which i increased changed previously) and if i click on any field , that specific field is repositioning itself inside the (reduced)border lines.
I request the forum to give a remedy on this issue.
thanks in advance

URL Reporting Time parameter value.

We have installed Business objects XIR2 and one of our application uses URL reporting to call a crystal report. Parameter values are retrieved from the database and used in the url. Reports that do not have a time parameter works fine. Even though I pass the time parameter value Im still prompted for the value. The format of the url I use is http://hostname/businessobjects/viewrpt.cwr?init=dhtml&apstoken=<token>&prompt0=02:02:20&prompt1=LOCCODE
where prompt0 is of type par_time. Could someone please help me with the correct format to use for parameter type time?

Ted, I checked the prompt order and the prompt type and they are correct. These reports are working fine on Crystal 9. Also reports that do not have a time parameter works fine in Crystal 11. Its only when reports with time parameter are called Im prompted for a value to be entered in hh:mm:ss format although I tried passing the value in hh:mm:ss format and Time(hh, mm, ss) format in the url. The report comes up fine after entering the value in hh:mm:ss value in the prompt. I tried encoding the url but it didnt work. If I encode the entire url Crystal prompts me to enter values for all parameters.

How can i make a report with parameter?

hi.
i'd like make a report with parameter , for example when i run a report at first i fill dates ( from dd/mm/yy to dd/mm/yy) and after that run my query.
i made a query ( select name,date from x where date between :a and :b) but when i run the report it return no row select.
thanks

Hi,
This is because the query is expecting a value for :a and :b. You should run the customization form first. Enter the values
for the :a and :b and save it. Next time when you run the report it will always pick up those values. You can also mention the
values at design time in the customization form display options by specifying the default values.
Thanks,
Sharmila

Reports 9i parameter form

Hi,
I have a simple problem, not sure where I'm going wrong.
I have a report that I want to be able to redirect to a few destinations. In order to make things easy for the user, I've set up a user parameter that makes use of an LOV that lists the destination options.
Depending on the option, I change the system parameter. ie. an entry in my LOV is WebPage. Selecting this option will result in :DESFORMAT := 'HTMLCSS' and :DESTYPE = 'CACHE'. I'm making these changes in the 'AFTER PARAMETER FORM' Trigger.
Should this approach work? It isn't completely. Is there any problem with attempting to change the system parameters after the Parameter Form? When I make the parameter form objects change the system parameters directly, everything works as expected. But this is a bit cumbersome, needing to specify the type, format and name, as well as knowing which settings are appropriate.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Jim

Hi Again,
I've determined that the :DESFORMAT is taking effect, but the :DESTYPE is not.
user parameter validation trigger code:
WHEN UPPER(LTRIM(RTRIM(:myuserparm))) = 'FILE_CSV' THEN
begin
:DESTYPE := 'FILE';
:DESFORMAT := 'DELIMITED';
:DESNAME := 'LORDOR'||LTRIM(RTRIM(:PCOUNTYCODE))||'.PDF';
return (TRUE);
end;
destype and desname do not have any effect on the output.
is there a white paper on this? i've search OTN with no success.
Again, thanks for any help
Jim

Reports-Runtime Parameter Form; another question

hi!
I would like to implement 2 user parameters in the runtime
parameter form which depend on each other: with the first one you
can select a special ressort and depending on the selection you
made here you can select some keyword groups with the second one;
but I don't know how the select statement for the second user
parameter should look like, because it is not allowed to use
'Bindevariablen' (sorry, don't know what they are called in
english; this are the ones with the : in front of them):
here is what I tried to do:
parameter: P_1
select rs_id, rs_name from tb_ressort union select 99999, 'alle
Ressorts' from dual order by 1
parameter: P_2
select kwg_id, kwg_group from tb_keyword_group union select
99999, 'ALL' from dual
and here I wanted to add a where clause: where rs_id = :P_1
but this doesn't work
Any other ideas?
thx in advance

Hi Michaela,
I think this will generally not work in reports parameter form;
the parameter values are available first when the report is
started, and the first point to reference them is in the
after-parameter-form trigger. I think you get the message
from the report builder 'REP-0781: Bind variables not allowed in
the Select statement'.
The only idea I have is to write a parameter form with Forms,
with two LOV's attached to two items wich CAN reference each
other. Then use add_parameter and run_product to start your
report. This seems to be more complicated then using only
Reports, but it isn't and it works.

Logical AND in MDX Reporting Services Parameter

Hi, I would like to implement logical AND on a cube parameter. I have seen examples of hard-coded logical AND in MDX.
(http://salvoz.com/blog/2013/12/24/mdx-implementing-logical-and-on-members-of-the-same-hierarchy/)
But I'm not sure how to apply this to a parameter's MDX dataset.
Here is an example of the automatically generated MDX which uses logical OR:
This is the drop down parameter:
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS [Department].[Department].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION MEMBER
[Measures].[ParameterValue] AS
[Department].[Department].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS
[Department].[Department].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL
SELECT {[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue],
[Measures].[ParameterLevel]} ON COLUMNS
, [Department].[Department].ALLMEMBERS ON ROWS
FROM [MyCube]
And the demo report dataset is:
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[CompanyTbl Count] } ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY { ([Product Level No].[Product Level No].[Product Level No].ALLMEMBERS ) }
DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME ON ROWS FROM
( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@DepartmentDepartment, CONSTRAINED) )
ON COLUMNS FROM [MyCube]) WHERE
( IIF( STRTOSET(@DepartmentDepartment, CONSTRAINED).Count = 1,
STRTOSET(@DepartmentDepartment, CONSTRAINED), [Department].[Department].currentmember ) )
CELL PROPERTIES VALUE,
BACK_COLOR, FORE_COLOR, FORMATTED_VALUE, FORMAT_STRING,
FONT_NAME, FONT_SIZE, FONT_FLAGS

Hi,
I can see there just one parameter @Department@Department in your script. But if you had two parameters that should return resultset affected by two parameters. You can do it as either select from subselect from subselect.
Example 1
SELECT
{x} ON COLUMNS,
{ROWS_SET} ON ROWS
FROM
(SELECT StrToSet(@Param1) ON COLUMNS FROM
(SELECT StrToSet(@Param2) ON COLUMNS FROM
[CUBE_NAME]
Or crossjoin between 2 parameters
SELECT
{x} ON COLUMNS,
{ROWS_SET} ON ROWS
FROM
(SELECT StrToSet(@Param1)*StrToSet(@Param2) ON COLUMNS FROM
[CUBE_NAME]
