Reports, HTML vs CSV formatting...

Hi,
I have a report that in its response has one field which includes many values, like "roles"...
when the report is visible in the browser, it looks good when one adds a br-tag between the different roles, but this is not a good "look" for it when you press the "export to CSV".
So my query is... is there some way to format the "output" differently in CSV vs HTML output for the same report?
OIM 9.x
Edited by: Dhurgan on Jan 14, 2011 3:20 PM

As far as I know there is no way to do this within the OIM reporting framework.
On the other hand it is not very hard to get the information and format it yourself but to get that approach user friendly you would have to create a custom menu item.
Best regards

Can Sentinel RD reports be in CSV format instead of PDF

Hi,
I am working with Sentinel RD and generating custom reports using
iReport. I was wondering if I can generate a custom report where the
output is in CSV format instead of PDF and can be scheduled in the same
way as the PDF are.
What do I need to do to achieve this?

Here is how to output report results in CSV format in SLM 1.1 (or
later):
STEP 1: Go to the $ESEC_CONFIG_HOME directory on your SLM server (It
will be something like: /etc/opt/novell/sentinel_log_mgr/config).
STEP 2: Open the file
"obj-component.JasperReportingComponent.properties" for editing.
STEP 3: Specify the following fields/values in that properties file:
reporting.csv.enable=true
reporting.csv.email=true
reporting.csv.outputdir=/opt/mycsvreportresults
STEP 4: Save the file.
STEP 5: I *think* you have to restart the SLM server after making
changes to any of these properties.
Some things to take note of:
NOTE 1: You can specify any directory (that the novell user has
permission to write to) in the "reporting.csv.outputdir" setting. This
will cause a .csv file to be created in that directory whenever a report
is run.
NOTE 2: If you set the "reporting.csv.email" setting to true, the .csv
report results will be included with any report results that are
emailed.
NOTE 3: The CSV results will include all of the report information in
the the .csv... including the header information any output from any
subreports. That additional information may not always be desireable in
the CSV results, so if you find the format of the .csv to not be what
you need or too difficult to work with, you might want to consider
creating a new report where there results/output are more optimized for
.csv output (may without any header or subreport information).
NOTE 4: Regardless of whether csv output is enabled or not, the
standard PDFs results will always be generated.
NOTE 5: The CSV results are not accessible through the GUI, but instead
are accessible by looking in the directory you specify via the
"reporting.csv.outputdir" property ... or via any report result emails
if the "reporting.csv.email" property is set to true.
NOTE 6: Just FYI: That "reporting.pdf.outputdir" property that you will
also see in the "obj-component.JasperReportingComponent.properties" file
is if you want to have the PDF results to be placed in a directory on
the server. (PDF results will always be accessible via the GUI
regardless of this setting.)

Change codepage in OIM reports saved in CSV format (e.g. UTF8 - Win1251)

Hello guys.
I have OIM V.9.1 installed on WebLogic. For some reason my customer would like to have OIM reports saved in CSV format encoded with codepage differ from default UTF8 (actually desired codepage is Windows 1251 but it is doesn't matter). I think that there should be a way to change default codepage for OIM reports via OIM's settings.
There is no any information on it in the documentation.
Does anybody already met this problem? Any help would be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Ivan

Hi RH,
You can add two textbox at the top outside the tablix and using expression to get the parameter value use have selected to display in the textbox as blew:
TextBox1: =Parameters!Date.Value
TextBox2: =Parameters!To.Value
For Multiple value parameter you can use the expression like : =Join(Parameters!Date.Value,",")
You can rename the two textbox' name in the properties as "Date" and "To" then the two textboxs will display like belkow in the CSV report:
Date                 TO
01/01/2015     01/31/2015
ID   EmpFirstName    EmpLastName   Location
1      Tom                  Garry                  NY
2      John                 Graham               NJ
3      Ron                   Lorrie                 CA

Proxy error when downloading report (IR) in csv format

I'm getting the error below when downloading IR report in csv format. I'm getting that whenever the records is more than 108,000. Is there a limit in records to download? Is there a resolution.
I am using apex 4.1, EXCEL 2010.
Thanks,
Pinky

Since it is a text file it should have no limits within reason..
See if you can recreate issue on Oracle's hosted site..
Simple test, build a standard report on a table that has 101,000 rows and try downloading and then build a IR report on same table..
Thank you,

Apply conditional formatting when a report is exported to CSV format

Hello
OBIEE dasboard has the option to export the report data to CSV format.
But the problem is that on some columns of the report, it uses various different types of conditional formatting that tells, what to display when data is equal to one of those edge cases. So hence the report on the dashboard page shows accordingly which is fine.
But when the report is exported to CSV format, no conditional formatting is applied and all the raw data is shown without any formatting.
Is there any way to make sure that the conditional formatting is applied even in the data exported to CSV format.
thanks

Interactive Reports Download In Colour format in html and csv

Hi All I want to download interactive report in colour format(as it is format) in html and csv using apex 4.0.2
Regards
Robert

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values
A comma-separated values (CSV) file stores tabular data (numbers and text) in plain-text form. As a result, such a file is easily human-readable (e.g., in a text editor).re: colours of html output
interestingly, there are settings in print attributes, but they have no bearing on the output... obviously nothing to do with the html output. Probably best bet is BI Publisher, where you can define your own report templates.

Report in CSV format

In an Apex report SQL query, i had written a statement for the column as
'<div style="width: 260px;">'|| PARTY_NAME || '</div>' as PARTY_NAME to avoid wrapping of the column text.
Now, when i download the report in csv format, i get the output in PARTY_NAME column as follows:
<div style="width: 260px;">SELF</div> instead if SELFPlease suggest the solution.
Yogesh

Hi,
