Run report with prev day automatically

I have a report with passed parameters. actually i only need this reprt to run daily at 4am (we have the scheduler) but process the previous day.
I dont need a from to really, just the one day. how do i prefill this in a param for date which is a number field here.

The only way you can pre-fill the prompt with 'previous day' is by writing a SQL query (that returns the last day) and adding to the report using the Add Command option and creating dynamic prompt that points to the field in this command object.
Make sure you don't join this command object with the existing tables/queries in the report.

Hello,
Do you use the Oracle Forms builtin WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT ?
If yes , take a look to : "IE7 windows opened and closed immediatly"
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Software/Internet_Email/Web_Browsers/Internet_Explorer/Q_23304982.html
You can test the solution suggested :
We have found the setting that we needed, under the Internet Options
Security tab, if you select the internet zone, and click the custom level
button, then scroll down to the Downloads section, the first option is
Automatic prompting for file downloads, setting this to enable keeps IE 7
from interfering with this sort of download.

Auto run report with default parameters in Viewer

Hi,
Can any one tell me if it's possible to automatically run reports in Disco Viewer with default parameter values?
For example, I have a worksheet with a parameter like 'Term like :Term Code' which has a default value of '%'.
When I open the sheet in Viewer I'm presented with the Confirmation screen with default parameter values displayed and then click OK to run report. Is there a way to skip the confirmation screen and just run the sheet with default values as soon as it's opened?
I tried using the 'Run Query Automatically' option in Query Governor preference but this results in Viewer opening the Edit Parameters screen instead of the confirmation screen.
What I'd ideally like to do is bypass both the Confirmation and Edit Parameters screen to automatically run the worksheet with default parameters as soon as it's selected.
Any thoughts appreciated,
Ien Hien

Hi,
Option 1
If the user is clicking on a URL for the report you could code the parameters directly into the URL thus, they are passed on startup. Section 13.5.2 Example 2 of the below URL provides an example:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B13918_03/urlstart.htm#i1014363
Option 2 (Not Exactly what your looking for)
This would still require a user to click something but, if your passing a wildcard it should probably be considered,
If the parameter might be a wild card your better off making it an Optional Parameter which is now possible in Discoverer Plus 10.1.2. Thus, instead of passing an expensive % sign the condition will simply be ignored.
Hopefully this helps....

ReportViewerBean refreshReport behavior running report with prompt

I've been blocked trying to test this behavior: whether or not the automatic refresh (on a timer) of a report with prompt will bring up the Refresh Report Data" window, asking about current or new prompt values, requiring manual intervention on each refresh. So, I take it to the community! When a report with prompt running from the server or within the client is manually refreshed, the Refresh Report Data window comes up and must be "answered" before the actual refresh occurs. We need to have 15 second automatic refresh of the report with prompts.
Does the ReportViewerBean::refreshReport() behave in the same way (bringing up the Refresh Report Data window and blocking data refresh), or does it simply result in refreshing the query data in the report?
Thanks!

Hi,
What you have to do is to purge the data for your deski reports then refresh them and republish them and then proceed.
The other thing which may cause this is your variables.
Are you using some variables, like date, year etc?
If yes then recheck them. Sometimes these variable gets corrupted.

Hi onizga,
According to your description that you are migrating SSRS 2008 R2 reports to SSRS 2012 SP2, after migration you got some error like “The Uri string is too long” which only occurred when accessing the drill-through actions, right?
Usually, the issue can be caused when you try to pass some parameters that cause the URL length to exceed 65,520 characters for a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services (SSRS 2012), you cannot render the report, and you may receive the following error
message:

Problem running report with BI Publisher and Web Service

Hello,
I actually try to run a Bi Publisher report via the Web Service.
I use the following documents:
- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10415_01/doc/bi.1013/e10416/bip_webservice_101331.htm
- "How to integrate Oracle BI Publisher via Web Services in Oracke Forms"
Everything works fine. But when I try to copy it on local computer the file is 0 length. I use the "getReportBytes" method.
Here is the code I tried with:
String userName = “Administrator”;
String passWord = “Administrator”;
System.out.println(”calling ” + myPort.getEndpoint());
System.out.println(myPort.validateLogin(userName,passWord));
ReportRequest repReq = new ReportRequest();
ReportResponse repRes = new ReportResponse();
repReq.setAttributeFormat(”pdf”);
repReq.setAttributeLocale(”en-US”);
repReq.setAttributeTemplate(”World Sales”);
repReq.setReportAbsolutePath(”/Sales Manager/World Sales/World Sales.xdo”);
repRes = myPort.runReport(repReq,userName,passWord);
System.out.println(repRes.getReportContentType());
byte[] binaryBytes = repRes.getReportBytes();
OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(”D:
out.pdf”);
out.write(binaryBytes);
out.close();
System.out.println(”Success for Run Report”);
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I assume that you use 10.1.3.4. If not, my hint is not relevant for you ....
There's a new parameter in the web service API to set the Chunk-Size. Unfortunaltely is the default value not so, that the behaviour is like in older releases (no chunk-size ... the whole document at once). If you set the chunk size to -1, you should get your document. So try to add
repRequest.setSizeOfDataChunkDownload(-1);

Run Report with Pass Number and Varchar Lexical Parameter values

Dear Sir/Madam
Due to an urgent change required to a report I would most appreciate it if you can please advise me if it is possible to get this report working by either passing in multiple lexical parameters or one signle lexical parameter when calling the SRW.RUN_REPORT command with the following methods:
Firstly: When calling report with a run_no and spr_cd passed in through one lexical:
cmd_line: REPORT=D:\DEV\REMITTANCE.rdf BACKGROUND=YES BATCH=NO DESFORMAT=PDF DESTYPE=FILE DESNAME=D:\DEV\REMITTANCE.pdf
CP_L_PARAM=RUN_NO=TO_NUMBER(28) AND SPR_CD=SUPP1
Both with a TO_NUMBER and without, whereby I attempt to do a SUBSTR within the query of the called report to derive the RUN_NO Oracle Reports fails to accept the SUBSTR.
Secondly: I am now trying to call the with passing two lexical parameters into the report as follows:
cmd_line: REPORT=D:\DEV\REMITTANCE.rdf BACKGROUND=YES BATCH=NO DESFORMAT=PDF DESTYPE=FILE DESNAME=D:\DEV\REMITTANCE.pdf
CP_L_RUN_NO=||TO_CHAR(lv_run_no)|| CP_L_SPR_CD=||lv_spr_cd;
NOTE: The above is an output of the actual command line and not what is passed into the command line, thus the quotes are missing. Please also note that the report is running fine with the only a hard coded RUN_NO value PASSED without the SPR_CD.
Unfortunately this is also causing issues as the RUN_NO is a number and as you know you can only pass in strings.
Your urgent help is required on this matter please as our client is expecting a solution this afternoon.
Hope to hear form you soon.
Kind regards
Andrew Mason

Dont Worry I've worked it out...

Running Reports with WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT versus RUN_REPORT_OBJECT

Where I work I work alone on developing and delivering Oracle applications. I've found a way of running reports in 10g over the web using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT, I've embedded my own security in the BEFORE PARAMETER FORM trigger of the reports.
I don't have time to trawl through thousands of pages of documentation and I need to know whether there is a fundamental drawback of using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT over RUN_REPORT_OBJECT? I've got everything working OK in my test environment, but it's not clear reading the Oracle documentation whether there is a major drawback with this method, in particular I'm interested in any performance/load issues. I'm slightly worried because most people seem to use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT (which has all sorts of issues, such as parameter form incompatibility etc), I've found that WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT is much easier to implement as it avoid the parameter form issue, displaying the user credentials in the source html and being able to type in any jobid in a url to receive other peoples reports.
I've read as much as I can including the Forms and Reports integration document and the Usability Matrix and can't find anything obvious. I would be very grateful for any comments.

Good call .... I included some of the code from your linked document to create a forms library from which to run reports. This uses the inate ability of reports to generate HTML parameter forms at runtime. Very handy. Most of our reports that we upgaded recently took little or no effort.

Running report with web.show_document

We are using web.show_document to run reports which have parameter forms. destype=CACHE , desformat=pdf . We are also using the javabean which hides the login credentials as a cookie.
The output displays OK then the user wants to email it, so they use the mail button on the adobe reader toolbar.
They are asked whether they want to link or copy even though link does not work.
If they choose copy, the result is an email with an attachment called 'servlet' with no extension.
The recipient of the email has no idea what a servlet is, and more importantly they do not know how to open the file.
Does anyone know how to get around these problems ?

Ino
Your method is fine if run_report_object is used. However, in order to display a parameter form, the report must be run with web.show_document. If web.show document is used twice, first to run the report and then to display it, the second does not wait for the first to finish, even if a synchronize is put between them.
So, as soon as the parameter form appears, the second show_document appears in front of it saying it cannot find the file. Dismissing that allows access to the parameter form, the report runs and gives a success message but no output.

Internet Explorer Script Error when running report with user-entered params

We are using Crystal Reports Version 11.0.0.1282. We have multiple copies each installed on a separate computer. We have a relatively simple report with a prompt for 2 values (parameters) to be selected or input by the users. The desktop is either Windows XP SP3 or Windows Server 2003 SP2 On all the XP/SP3 computers, this report works as expected. On the exception computer, the Windows Server2003 Desktop, we see the prompting screen with place holders for graphics instead of the buttons. When we attempt to select a value for the parameter by keying in the value and clicking on the OK link (no button), we see message box titled "Internet Explorer Script Error" with text: An error has occurred in the script on this page.
Line: xxx (varies depending on param chosen)
char 1
error: Object expected
url: file:///c:/doc...../temp/1/prompting1.html
===============================
Searhing around the forum and using Google, I found a suggestion to be copying the "prompting" folder and dll from a known working system - tried this, it didn't work.
So. I still need a solution. Any other suggestions??

The active browser on the computer is IE7 - 7.0.5730.13
I am using the installed crystal reports 11 program to run the report. I open the report in CR by going to File/Open and selecting the report. Then I get prompted for my ms sql login info, which I enter. Then I see the "Enter Values" window with my data entry fields; but I don't see the nice formatting and buttons which I see when I run this from the other computers; I see only the placeholders. I select or enter data and click on the "OK" link. Then the message box pops up. The message box pops up when I click on any of the links or on the "x" in the upper right. Mesage box is explicit - Intenet Explorer Script Error, etc., as I described in my original post.

Help! trying ot run reports with AIX chron

i am trying to run a set of nightly reports with ibm's AIX unix chron procedure but it keeps complaning that it cannot find r25runm:
null

From my previous post:
o Complete Forms/Reports version. Do NOT* say "Forms 10g". Provide the numerical version numbers*
o "error" 103??? What is this? Forms error, Reports error, error seen in browser. Explain...
This means, what is the complete text from the error and which line is it complaining about.
o Have you reviewed the Forms/Reports Integration White paper which explains how to correctly call Reports from Forms?
At quick glance, disregarding the detail requested above, the first problem I see is here:
cust_List := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT(cust_list_report);
cust_list_report* either needs to be quoted or be a declared variable. So, for example this is what I would have expected assuming cust_list_report* is an actual report object found in the Object Navigator :
cust_List := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('cust_list_report');Notice the single quotations. If cust_list_report is a variable, then it needs to be declared at the top of the code.

Running report with alv grid in background and exporting to excel

Hi Guys,
              I've created a report program that uses the alv grid. When I run the report in foreground, I can easily export it to excel. However, if I run it in background, then display the spooled report and try to export to excel, it does not put it in excel format (seems to go over as one big column rather than individual columns that are defined in the report). Is there a way to run it in background ,export to excel properly and i have to email also in Excel sheet format.?
Thanks,
Gopi.

In background u cannot do a download to excel. you can do is create CSV format file
or
write a report for output with tabs then call that report using
submit yXXXX exporting list to memory
           and return.
call function 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'
    tables
      listobject = report_list
    exceptions
      not_found = 1
      others     = 2.
and send the report_list to email users

Error running reports with new OMS

Hello All,
We had a bunch of reports scheduled in Grid Control. After migrating to a new OMS on a new server, reports are not being sent anymore.
I've done some tests and the error I see is this:
This is a scheduled report. The most recently generated report completed with the following error. Error: Unexpected occurred while e-mailing report: - null
The report is a simple one showing waits in terms of I/O, instance activity etc..
If anyone has ideas, let me know.
Cheers.
P.S. Preferred credentials are set and work fine. This is OMS 10.2.0.5 on Solaris 10. The target instance is a 9i instance.

I checked with both Mozilla and IE. Issue is not related to browser.
The problem seems to be information isn't available on host - If i go to the host- CPU/Memory/IO utilization show - No data is currently not available. I'm not sure if this is because of the 10.2.0.5 release but suspect that's the case since the data was available on 10.2.0.3 GC.
If anyone has seen issues where host metrics aren't showing in GC 10.2.0.5, let me know. The host is running solaris 9. GC is on solaris 10/Repository is at 11.1.0.7.
Thanks

Run report with SSO/OAM by URL without prompt for uid/pwd?

Can I run a report by URL to a report engine protected by SSO/OAM without being prompted for credentials? Asking the same in another way, is there a way to pass the SSO/OAM credentials in the URL (or otherwise) to avoid being prompted for them? I find many references to how to do this for the database connection credentials, but I'm trying to pass the SSO/OAM credentials on the URL. My end game is to be able to run a report from VB.NET from a kiosk application in VB.NET where there is no attendant and client does not want to have to log into SSO/OAM at any time. My VB.NET code will submit the URL, grab the output and manage the work stream (print, save, store to doc repos, etc.) in the kiosk code.
Thanks in advance

12/29/2014
For the sake of those that come later with this same question:
It turns out there is a way to do this after all. I opened an SR with MOS and with a little trial and error we worked out that the following does work:
http://<theFormsReportsServer>:9002/reports/rwservlet?report=myTestReport.rdf&authid=myOAMUserId/mySSOPasswd&userid=dbUid/dbPwdK@DbTnsEntryName&destype=cache&desformat=html
Note that there are two necessary bits to this in addition to specifying the authid=SSO Credentials part. The first is that you must use the WLS_REPORTS port (9002 in our case), not the OHS port (8888 in our case). The other is that you must provide the database connection. I have done it overtly in this syntax by specifying userid=DbCredentials@Db, but it should also work to substitute the ssoconn functionality in order to hide the Db credentials. That is not an issue in our environment so i have not actually tested it.
Regards
Hank
