Saved reports in apex 4 vs 3. Can i back to tabbed system?

Hi, After upgrading from apex 3 to 4, i can see saved reports have a dropdown box instead a tabbed system. can i back the old tabbed system?

Should be no problem.
Just create a Classic Report and change the display as type of the columns you want to make editable.
brgds,
Peter

Create Report Layout (Apex 3.2) - How can I set the substitution variables?

Hi,
I created a "Report Query" under "Shared Components". I now want to work on the corresponding "report layout". I created a "Generic Columns (XSL-FO)". I read the following in the documentation:
The following are valid substitution strings:
#PAGE_HEADER#
#PAGE_HEADERFONT_COLOR#
#PAGE_HEADER_FONT_FAMILY#
#PAGE_HEADER_FONT_SIZE#
#PAGE_HEADER_FONT_WEIGHT#
#PAGE_FOOTER#
#PAGE_FOOTER_FONT_COLOR#
#PAGE_FOOTER_FONT_FAMILY#
#PAGE_FOOTER_FONT_SIZE#
#PAGE_FOOTER_FONT_WEIGHT#
#PAGE_WIDTH#
#PAGE_HEIGHT#
#HEADER_BG_COLOR#
#HEADER_FONT_COLOR#
#HEADER_FONT_FAMILY#
#HEADER_FONT_SIZE#
#HEADER_FONT_WEIGHT#
#BODY_BG_COLOR#
#BODY_FONT_COLOR#
#BODY_FONT_FAMILY#
#BODY_FONT_SIZE#
#BODY_FONT_WEIGHT#
#BORDER_WIDTH#
Where can I set the values for these substitution variables in my "Report Layout"? Could someone give an example? I can't seem to find documentation on this.
Thanks!
Francois

Thanks for the tip however I'm not trying to do this through the print tab, I'm calling the report using the following get_print_document in pl/sql code:
l_report_blob := apex_util.get_print_document(
p_application_id => l_application_id,
p_report_layout_name => l_report,
p_report_query_name => l_report,
p_report_layout_type => l_output_format,
p_document_format => l_output_format,
p_print_server => null);
Where could I set these substitution variables ? I'm simply calling a report query and layout created under Shared Components.
Thanks
Francois

Ex: interactive reports

2.xxx test
3.yyyy
4.abcd test
5.zzzz test
Can we sort saved report list by name?
Could you please guide me to achieve this requirement.

Could you please guide me to achieve this requirement.It's a lot easier to do so if the following information is provided (as has been repeatedly pointed out to you):
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
Sorting of the saved report list by report name was introduced in APEX 4.1.

Saved Interactive Reports after APEX Upgrade

Hi,
When you do an APEX Upgrade are saved interactive reports kept?
Martin

I have been experiencing lost saved "as Named Report" Interactive reports, whenever I migrate the application from test to prod.
To clarify how we operate.
We have a test APEX environment that is separate to production. The Test app has a different App_id but uses the same schema name. In test the application Id is 1xxx (eg 1201) and in test 2xxx (2201). I export Test 1201 and then import into Prod changing the App_id to overwrite 2201. I always lose the saved reports. I just tried an experiment of creating the saved report in Test and seeing if it migrates to prod, but of course it does not.
How should I operate the two different Test and Prod environment to be "best practice" and not lose "as Named Report" Interactive report saved by the end-user?
thanks Peter

To store time only in the table and get it to the report in Apex

Hi,
I am very very new to Apex.
I get a txt file with around 57 columns(comma seperated). In apex we import this and insert it into a database table (csv into table) and then generate a reports out of this table using procedure/packages. we have different fields in this extract which gives different dates and times ( thats right dates and time comes seperate in seperate columns). I would like to insert this dates and times seperately into the table. thats is, getting a table as an exact image of the extract we receive.What data type do I choose to save just the time.
I can only see 'date' data type where I can have both date and time. But can't find anything just for time.
The main use of this time(s) saved seperately in the table is , I can then easily display it in reports.
The report the users want has got fields like transport start time, duty start time etc..
If you can't save time seperately in the database table, then can somebody suggest a way of saving it in table (in the method available)and then getting the time seperated out into the report.
Currently the users use macro on excel to get this reports and formatting a cell to 'time' is simple.
Any suggestions welcome.
Regards
Liza

Varad,
I have been trying to get this date-time issue in different areas in my application.
From csv to table its working (once I got dates in the extract adjusted to '02mar2009' format).
Now I have manipulation to do on this datetime.
Say I have datetime1, to get datetime2 I have to get datetime1 and reduce some minutes.
I got the time part into l_temp after reducing the minutes.
datetime2 :=to_date(sysdate || l_temp,'dd-mon-yyyy hh24mi');
It gives an error saying 'literals doesn't match format string' (both at sql command and PL/SQL in apex
I even tried datetime2 :=to_date(to_char(sysdate,'dd-mon-yyyy') || l_temp,'dd-mon-yyyy hh24mi');
gets the same error in apex but this works fine in sql command.
But if I put datetime2 :=to_date('02mar09' || l_temp,'dd-mon-yyyy hh24mi');
Do you know why? Can you suggest something?
Obviously, I can't hard code it. I have read the date from table1 and write it to table 2 with after this manipulation.
Any suggestion?
regards
Liza

HELP IR Download filtered saved report to CSV

Hi there
My enquiry is to do with the saved reports feature in Interactive Reports Apex 4.1
I create a default IR report and then I subsequently define a filter on this report effectively limiting the displayed output to the rows of data I want to see. I then save the report which is now a 'private' report. If I run the 'saved' (with the filter condition) IR report it displays the data correctly, with the 'saved' report displaying the correct data on the screen I then click Actions->Download and then select CSV - the entire 'primary' report is downloaded -- The filter is ignored!!! Surely the Actions->Download should 'know' that I want download the report that's being displayed (just run) on the screen?
I think that when you click on the CSV icon the report is re-submitted - How can I get the CSV download to apply the filter that I've defined in the saved report.
I've searched this forum and found the following similar question being asked
Re: Problem with export from a saved interactive report
Interactive Report Download to csv problem
how to download only filtered data in csv?
Re: Download Saved Report in IR 4.1
Thanks in advance
PS: Is the above an undocumented feature of Apex IR Reports?
Edited by: boketi on Sep 25, 2012 7:05 AM

Hi Sathish,
Thanks for your comment.
I agree with just a 'default' report the CSV download always gives what is displayed on the screen. If you then define another report with a filter condition and run this 'private' report 'sometimes' the CSV download gives the origional primary report, ignoring the filter condition. Please see the attached links as other people are also getting the same problem.

Download Saved Report in IR 4.1

Hi,
I have a query regarding saved reports feature in Interactive reports 4.1
I saved a normal report by adding some control breaks etc and make it more readable.
I then saved it. Now if I want to download my saved report - I can't.
It always downloads the default report layout.
Can anyone help how to do this?
Many Thanks,
Jas

Hi Nico,
I'm using Apex 4.1.
The odd thing is that for some reports the download to csv of the 'private' report works OK, others don't work OK -- It's weird. And I'm defining the filter conditions and saving the report in the same way.
A similar post was raised by Robert G. Re: Problem with export from a saved interactive report
I appreciate your comments

Deletion of Public reports in APEX 4.0

As far as I know, in APEX 4.0 no other user other than the one who created a Public report can delete it. Can this behavior be changed somehow?

Hi Denes,
well, there is another way to do that.
First, identify the saved report you want to remove:
This query will give you all APEX views with information about interactive reports.
select *
from apex_dictionary
where apex_view_name like '%IR%'
   and column_id=0;There we have a look at apex_application_page_ir_rpt:
select *
from APEX_APPLICATION_PAGE_IR_RPT;When you have the proper id, you can remove the report using apex_util.ir_delete_report:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23903_01/doc/doc.41/e21676/apex_util.htm#CHDDBCHG
i.e.:
BEGIN
    APEX_UTIL.IR_DELETE_REPORT(
        p_report_id => '880629800374638220');
END;@Denes, I guess we should listen to each other training sessions, we can always learn something new ;) ... I will listen to you next time ... in october :).
Cheers,
~Dietmar.

Share another user to my 'tab/saved report'

Hi,
I created an interactive report. I changed it and saved this (via save report). So now there is a new tab.
I enter apex via the E-business suite. Is it possible to share another user to my ‘tab/saved report‘?
Because when another user in apex wants to use this report he cant use/see my ‘tab/saved report‘.
Thnx, Robbert

Hello Robbert,
See [this blog post|http://dpeake.blogspot.com/2009/01/preserving-user-saved-interactive.html] about saving and sharing IR's - your question is answered in point 3.

Report Designer - Error while opening a saved report

Hi,
I am not sure if this is an authorization issue or configuration issue.
When I try to open a saved report on Report designer, I keeping getting an error: Report Version is invalid: "0".
Has anybody faced similar problem?
We are on SP09.
Regards,
Payal.

Payal,
I am afraid, that your report might be corrupted. This might have happened, if in tx SE16 the version is changed. The Report XML displayed in SE16 for table RSERDATA, is limited to ca. 1024 charachters. When editing the version, after pressing the save button, the Report XML is cut off at 1024 charachters and the report is lost.
Please do not set the report version in tx SE16!
I will need to configure the program RS_REPORT_MAINTAIN, such that reports with version "0" can be saved with the minimum version 9.0.
Until then I recommend the following procedure for Reports that are ok, but have the Version "0" bug:
1) in tx SE38, program: RS_REPORT_MAINTAIN
    open your report with option "DT" (designtime)
2) Switch to Edit mode.
    Make a backup copy of the report using the "Save As" Button.
    You can copy the Report XML to the clipboard using Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C
3a) Open a dummy report in RS_REPORT_MAINTAIN created previously with
      Report Desginer ( --> The version is set to 9.0).
      Switch to edit mode and paste the Report XML and Save.
or
3b) Debug FUNCTION rs_bex_report_load_rfc.
      Open a report and change the value of E_REPORT_VERSION to "9.0"
      before leaving the function.
Hope this helps, karim
P.S.
I will update note 1016224

Here you go..Just follow these steps blindly and you are done.
1) Create a year prompt with presentation variable as pv_year
2) Create a report say Mid report with year column selected 3 times
- Put a filter of pv_year presentation variable on first year column with a default value say @{pv_year}{2008}
- Rename the second time column say YEAR+1 and change the fx to CAST(TIME_DIM."YEAR" AS INT)+1
- Rename the second time column say YEAR-1 and change the fx to CAST(TIME_DIM."YEAR" AS INT)-1
Now when you will run Mid Report, this will give you a records with value as 2008 2009 2007
3) Create your main report with criteria as Year and Measure col
- Change the fx for year column as CAST(TIME_DIM."YEAR" AS INT)
- Now put a filter on year column with Filter based on results of another request and select these:
Relationship = greater than or equal to any
Saved Request = Browse Mid Report
Use values in Column = YEAR-1
- Again,put a filter on year column with Filter based on results of another request and select these:
Relationship = less than or equal to any
Saved Request = Browse Mid Report (incase it doesn't allow you to select then select any other request first and then select Mid Report)
Use values in Column = YEAR+1
This will select Year > = 2007 AND Year < = 2009. Hence the results will be for year 2007,2008,2009
This will 100% work...

Call BI Publisher Report in APEX, based on R.T.F Template Layout.

Hi to all respected members of this forum.
Since 18th May (Saturday), I am trying to connect BI Publisher Reports with Oracle Application Express 4.2.2.
My APEX Version = APEX 4.2.2
Oracle BI Publisher Enterprise Edition (Trial) = 11.1.1.6.0
Oracle BI Publisher Desktop 32 Bit = 11.117.0.79
For this purpose what I did?
Firstly I downloaded Oracle BI Publisher Enterprise Edition 11.7 and when I started Installation I came to know that "R.C.U (Repository Creation Utility)" is required during installation and I don't have that so, left this idea.
Than I downloaded Oracle BI Publisher Enterprise Edition (Trial) from www.oracle.com and BI Publisher Desktop Edition for Templates because there is no facility in BI Publisher Trial Edition to design Report Templates. I have installed both successfully and created a report as per my requirement.
Now, I want to call that report in Oracle APEX but I am unable to do that.
I followed http://dgielis.blogspot.de/2007/12/call-bi-publisher-report-from-apex.html but the link which is shown in picture no: 03, is not available, so this didn't help me.
Then, I followed Oracle BI Publisher Blog https://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/entry/apex_users_why_not_integrate_w which discuss to call BI Publisher Report in APEX based on "Generic Report Layout". This done successfully but still I am unable to call BI Publisher Report .
Then I found this type of script
http://localhost/xmlpserver/Guest/Reporting_Channel.xdo&id=FGFC&password=****&xt=Reporting_Channel&xf=pdf
to call BI Publisher Report in APEX but this also failed.
Please help me to understand that how to call "BI Publisher Report in APEX, based on R.T.F Template Layout.
Thanks in Advance.

Are you trying to have multiple sql queries and have multiple sections displaying different data sets ? Or with one single query but display it in different ways in a single report ?
You can create one single query as Report Query in APEX and associate it with a BIP report layout. So you can achieve a Dashboard layout with the report query/layout.

Is it possible to use an XML Data Template to create a report in APEX?

Hi,
I have created an XML Data Template in BI Publisher passing one parameter and running two queries, then created an RTF Document Template to present the data.
I can create a nice report in BI Publisher using the two elements. I have used RTF Document Templates to publish reports in APEX but the data comes from a Report region running a single query.
I would like to run a report based in this kind of XML Data Template, in order to use several children queries related to a parent query. Is it possible to do it in APEX, or you have to use BI Publisher?
Francisco
===========================
Below is a simple data template definition:
<dataTemplate name="cotizacion_template" description="Prueba de data template para cotizaciones" dataSourceRef="dbxprts">
     <parameters>
          <parameter name="p_id_cotizacion" dataType="character" defaultValue="1009" include_in_output="true"/>
     </parameters>
     <dataQuery>
          <sqlStatement name="header_query">
               <![CDATA[select id_cotizacion, fecha_cotizacion, id_clipro from f_cotizaciones where id_cotizacion = :p_id_cotizacion]]>
          </sqlStatement>
          <sqlStatement name="detail_query">
               <![CDATA[select id_cotizacion as id_cot_child, id_detalle_cotizacion, partida, cantidad, id_producto from f_detalle_cotizaciones where id_cotizacion = :id_cotizacion]]>
          </sqlStatement>
     </dataQuery>
     <dataStructure>
          <group name="F_COTIZACIONES" source="header_query">
               <element name="ID_COTIZACION" value="ID_COTIZACION"/>
               <element name="ID_CLIPRO" value="ID_CLIPRO"/>
               <element name="SUMA_CANTIDAD" value="F_DETALLE_COTIZACIONES.CANTIDAD" function="SUM()"/>
               <group name="F_DETALLE_COTIZACIONES" source="detail_query">
                    <element name="PARTIDA" value="PARTIDA"/>
                    <element name="CANTIDAD" value="CANTIDAD"/>
                    <element name="ID_PRODUCTO" value="ID_PRODUCTO"/>
               </group>
          </group>
     </dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>

Hi,
I have the similar question. I used data templates in BI Publisher but now I want to use the same data template in Apex to print some reports.
I tried to some examples but these were only using report queries. I also tried with the Web Service but this didn't work for me either maybe because I didn't
used it in the right way. When I used the WS I received the binary of the report so the WS worked it was just the how and where to use it that didn't work for me.
Now this older entry is BUMPED maybe we find a solution for our problem this way.
