Run report thru form builder

hi
I have a table
EMP(empname varchar2(30),
empno varchar2(20),
add1 varchar2(60),
add2 varchar2(60),
sal number(10,2),
comm number(10,2)
i want create a report and
parameter form and run it thru form builder
can it possible i select column name in parameter as a list and report
show data only these column
if any solution plz help me
with thanx

I think you can achieve this as follows:
set up a new parameter, say P_FIELD, with initial value of empname
in your data model have an sql something like
Select
P_FIELD as field1 from EMP
pass the column name to P_FIELD and the report will return that column

Run reports thru form

hi
every body
i am trying to run report thru form.it's running fine but when i choose destype file
then it doesn't show printjob message
plz help me it's show or not
if yes plz help me
with thanx

Hi,
what do yo mean by that it doesn't show printjob message? If you use run_report_object() ain Forms, then the only feedback you get is through the returned status message. When running a Report from the Reports Servlet, then you get receive an acknowledgement in teh Webbrowser that the Reports was printed successfully (in case you mean this message). If you like to see this message shown when running Reports from Forms, then use web.show_document() in a call to the Reports Servlet.
However, using Run_Report_Object() provides you the same information about success and failure of a Report run.

How to run reports thru menu in 10g

Hi,
I'm a junior oracle programmer and have already migrated forms 6i to 10g. Now I have to migrate the reports to 10g. I have read many documentations about running report from forms or menu, but the more I read, the more confused I get. Please note that I am very new to all this oracle stuff. So please bear in mind that I might not understand everything too well. Thats the reason I would like help from you experts out here.
We have a menu (mmb) which has two horizontal sub menus (eg. Forms & Reports). Now Forms and Reports again in turn hv couple of vertical sub menus. Each vertical submenu under Forms calls a form (for eg. submenu_f1 calls forms1, submenu_f2 calls forms2 and so on). Same thing for Reports (eg. submenu_r1 calls report1, submenu_r2 calls report2, etc). Now this is what we want for the Reports. Each of our report has parameters like Begin Date, End Date, Agency_Type, Year, etc. We want our user to have one more choice in the parameters "FORMAT" (pdf, excel, html, etc) . Now this is what I dont know how to do. I cannot use run_report_object here cause I cannot create a report object in menu (like how we can do it in forms). I tried web.show_document but the problem in this is that everything is hard-coded, so I cannot give a choice in the desformat.
I would appreciate if someone can tell me how to run my report thru menu and give the user the option for the format. The users mostly want the output in excel (but might want pdf, etc too).
Plus we want to schedule certain reports to run at certain times everyday or every month, how can I do that?????
Any help would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks in advance for taking your time to reply my query.

Hi,
cannot use run_report_object here cause I cannot create a report object in menu (like how we can do it in forms).
Create a generic named Report node in the forms that you reference from the RunReport object request. This way you can run Reports from a menu

but i hav report in e:\ then why its getting?

Hi,
I suggest you not to use the "E:\" directory letter, but the REPORTS_PATH instead.

from the Online Help


On Windows, edit environment variables through the Registry Editor (Start > Run > Regedit).


On UNIX, edit environment variables by revising and running the shell script that defines the initial default values (reports.sh). If you do this, be sure to keep a backup of the original, unaltered reports.sh file.

Running report from forms

hi,
I am having problems in running report from form.
I am using oracle 9i on windows 2000 server and no 9iAS at the moment. On client side, i have windows xp and 9iDS installed. I want to run report from forms in 9iDS testing environment.
my forms are running ok but now i need to run report. so what i have done is that i have created a report object in form and following are enteries present in it at the moment.
Name REPORT7
FileName D:\Projects\IBMR\forms\soil_water_quality_data.rdf
Execution Mode Batch
Communication Mode Synchronous
Destination Type Cache
Report Server 9irep
and in when_button_pressed trigger
DECLARE
Report_Id REPORT_OBJECT;
Report_Job_Id VARCHAR2(20);
Report_Status VARCHAR2(80);
Report_Svr VARCHAR2(20);

Report_Id := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('REPORT7');

else
message ('report server failed with error message '||report_status);
END IF;
END;
i have installed report server with following command
rwserver -install 9irep
i have changed entry in rwservlet.properties like
SINGLESIGNON=NO and i have removed the following entire block of 9irep.conf, which i have read from some documentation

i get the following error message when i run my form
frm-41214 Unable to run report
and then next message is
frm-41217 unable to get report job status
i debugged the report id and it is
9irep_0
returned by Report_Job_Id := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(Report_Id);
When I checked the Report Queue Manager
it is showing status like
(9irep)Terminated with error
and detail it shows is
Unable to connect to the specified database.
Now I am wondering what to do next.
any suggestions???????

Hello,
From your description, it seems like the report is faling due to a database authentication problem. When you run your report from Forms, Forms internally passes the its database connection information to Reports automatically. So ensure that you are connected to a valid database in Forms, before the report is called.
Please verify whether a simple report which does not require a database connection, for example, a report containing only a boilerplate text object, is running correctly. Also, in the trigger code that you have specified, you should add the following:
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(Report_Id, REPORT_DESTYPE, CACHE);
so that the report output gets generated to the server cache, and can be retrieved using rwservlet/getjobid.
Thanks,
The Oracle Reports Team.

I am running Forms 6i on the web and attempting to call me report via RUN_REPORT_OBJECT. I am getting the same error as Jenny FRM-92100. I need to pass a parameter list so I don't think I can use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT. Any ideas???
Thanks,

Dear Jenny,
I am running reports from Forms 6i on the WEB. I did not encounter your problem. Nevertheless I would like to share the following with you.
RUN_PRODUCT doesn't work for calling reports ON THE WEB. Instead using RUN_PRODUCT do the following:
1. Install Oracle Reports Server
2. For WEB calls of reports use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT
3. Learn how to pass parameters to the reports. It is a litlle bit strange, but it is explaint excellent in the documentation to the Reports Server.
I hope this will help you.

Hi,
We have succesfully install OAS with Form Server and Report Server in

Does anyone have an idea??
Thanks in advance.

please check env. variables
1. FORMS60_MAPPING

I've interview tomorrow , still do not know how to run report from forms

hi all ,
i asked before about running report from forms 10g rel2 , but vainly , because i could not configure the reports server ,
and no one told me .
now i've an interview tomorrow , and sure it will be included in the task which i have to do .
i am in a bad need for your step by step help
thanks in advance

Excuse me for being lazy and not searching your previous threads containing questions about configuring your reports server. As I don't know their content I don't know the links posted, the advices given and what you did, and as this is a new thread I'll go ahead and ask what you tried, where you failed and what exactly did not work out for you.
i am in a bad need for your step by step help Fine, here is an easy one:
Step 1: go to http://tahiti.oracle.com
Step 2: click on "Oracle Application Server, 10g Release 2 (10.1.2)"
Step 3: click in the searchbox, type "Configuring Reports Server"
Step 4: click "search"
Step 5: You will be redirected to some links, the very fist of them is this:http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B14099_19/bi.1012/b14048/pbr_conf.htm
This is as step-by-step as it gets, if you want detailed help ask detailed questions.
cheers

hi rosario,
Thanks for ur reply. My requirement is, I want to generate pdf file from the report output. so i wrote the following code which is taken from d2k documentation. Problem area has been highlighted in bold.
declare
run_rep varchar2(200);
rep_obj report_object;
rep_stat varchar2(20);
begin
rep_obj := find_report_object('report46');
run_rep := run_report_object(rep_obj);
rep_stat := report_object_status(run_rep);
if rep_stat = 'FINISHED' then
copy_report_object_output(run_rep, 'C:\Documents and Settings\trainee\Desktop\Icons\test.pdf');
else
message('error when running report');
end if;
end;
Report is running but while coming to report_object_status. complior shows error like "FRM-40738:Argument 1 to builtin REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS cannot be null". Parameter for report_object_status is null, i dont know y it is null because report is running. If report is running means,then there must be some values in run_rep.
why complior doesnt find the values from run_rep.......???

jame
