Script to export Discoverer worksheets automatically

Dear All,
Is there a way to create a script to export Discoverer worksheets into excel and save them in a dedicated directory.
We are using Discoverer to create worksheets but we have a huge number of worksheets. We run the reports and export them manually in order to use them in excel files. We want to automate this process.
Please advice,
Thanks

Hi,
Yes there is more than 1 way,
1. You can use the windows command line on the computer where discoverer desktop is installed:
create a batch file containing the commands for exporting a workbook to XLS.
The format is:
<the path to the discoverer home>\dis51usr.exe /connect <user>/<paswword>@<DB Environment> /apps_user /apps_responsibility <Responsibility> /opendb <workbook name> /export XLS "Path for the export and file name" /batch
* I am using oracle apps so I need the responsibility as well, if you are using a DB user then drop that part...
for example, look at the following batch:
echo off
cls
title Export Workbook For Discoverer
md C:\Workbooks\%date:~-7,2%_%date:~-9,1%_%date:~-4,4%
start /wait C:\oracle\BIToolsHome_1\BIN\dis51usr.exe /connect ADMIN/AD1234@Test1 /apps_user /apps_responsibility <Responsibility> /opendb "Test for Export" /export XLS "C:\Workbooks\%date:~-7,2%_%date:~-9,1%_%date:~-4,4%\Test For Export" /batch
echo The Export Ended, You can look in the LOG File.
echo.
echo off
exit
2. you can use the java command line and then use it on your server but for that you will need to do a little research.

How can I export Discoverer reports automatically from within PLUS ?

Hi,
I want to export Discoverer Repors it to PDF file. I can manually export my report as an PDF file, Now I would like to run this report and export the
PDF once a day automatically. Has anyone done something like this on
a Windows server?
I am using Discoverer (Oracle Discoverer 10g Release 2 (10.1.2.1), there is no Desktop version anymore, so I am using PLUS version, how can I apply this through PLUS version.
Any help.
Thanks,
Hani

Do NOT attempt to use CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GUI_DOWNLOAD. This class and method is for use through the SAPGui and will NOT work within BSP. This information is completely incorrect!
There are lots of existing Weblogs on this subject. Have a look through them for solutions that do work.

Exporting Discoverer Worksheet to a predefined Fax layout

We have a requirement to export a Discoverer workbook of contact names and fax numbers into a fax template. i.e. each page of the fax would be addressed and sent to a different row returned by the discoverer report.
This sounds more like a Reports / XML publisher solution to me.
However, anyone done anything like this with Discoverer?

Hi,
Any Discoverer solution would be based around a script that exported the contact names and fax numbers from Discoverer into an csv or xml file and then used MS Word mail merge or other package to generate and send the fax template.

Query Version worksheet and Exportable Version worksheet

Hi,
can somebody tell me whats the difference between Query Version worksheet and Exportable Version worksheet in Discoverer Desktop??
And how can i create a query version worksheet?
Thanks in advance.

Kumar,
Exportable version worksheet is something whose data can be exported( for example to excel sheet).
This query version worksheet is something which basically lumps like info together.

A powershell script to export then delete exported items every month .

Hi all ..
We have an exchange 2013 server running on windows 2012 server .
I have a mailbox "MB1" hosted on a database with some other mailboxes .
I want to build a powershell script to export MB1 to a .PST file every month to a shared folder with the name of the month automatically , for example , \\fileserver\share1\November.pst
after export to PST , delete all messaged in MB1 , to be empty and ready for the next month .
please, if you have a script for this or KB or guide ... please reply me
Thanks alot .

The script you are asking is not available handy. It must be something that has to be written. Start Developing a a script and ping back for any assistance. To help you start of with your script you can include this.
1. New-MailboxExportRequest -Mailbox MailboxName -FilePath \\MBX-01\PSTFileShare\MailboxName.pst2. Next Step is to check if the ExportRequest was completed. You can use If Condition to check the same.If((Get-MailboxExportRequestStatistics "MailboxName").Status -eq "Completed"){Search-Mailbox MailboxName -DeleteContent -Force}Once you get hold of the logic, you can schedule to run the script once in a month using Task Scheduler.

Script to export a script as run-only via AppleScript Editor

Hi,
I have written a script that's creating a new script and than save it to the desktop as run-only.
Now Apple has re-written the rules of AppleScript Editor so the run-only command had to go via 'Export' (and not 'Save' anymore).
I can't figure out how to script it now... I even tried to script the menu's but that's only possible for all menu's without '...' ending it. For example: 'File > New' is scriptable, but 'File > Export...' is not.
Script 1 is the script I want to get working, but if scripting the Export of AppleScript Editor is not possible, I want to get de workaround of Script 2
Script 1:
==================================================
set myScript to "
set studentnumber to \"" & studentnumber & "\"
set password to \"" & password & "\"
tell application \"Safari\"
tell application "AppleScript Editor"
activate
make new document with data myScript
          save document 1 as "application" in file ((path to desktop as Unicode text) & "Automatisch Inloggen op GLR.app") with run only
-- save doesn't work anymore and has to be EXPORT...
          return
close document 1
end tell
=================================================
Script 2 (workaround, but doesn't work either)
tell application "AppleScript Editor" to activate
menu_click({"AppleScript Editor", "File", "Export..."})
-- 'File > New' works but 'File > Export... not'
on menu_click(mList)
          local appName, topMenu, r
-- Validate our input
          if mList's length < 3 then error "Menu list is not long enough"
-- Set these variables for clarity and brevity later on
          set {appName, topMenu} to (items 1 through 2 of mList)
          set r to (items 3 through (mList's length) of mList)
-- This overly-long line calls the menu_recurse function with
-- two arguments: r, and a reference to the top-level menu
          tell application "System Events" to my menu_click_recurse(r, ((process appName)'s ¬
                    (menu bar 1)'s (menu bar item topMenu)'s (menu topMenu)))

Applescript has changed a little. You can now save uncompiled scripts, but it would make no sense to save an uncompiled script as read-only, so trying to do that fails. Add a compile command before the save:
tell application "AppleScript Editor"
activate
          set doc to make new document with data myScript
compile doc
          save doc as "application" in ((POSIX path of (path to desktop)) & "Automatisch Inloggen op GLR.app") with run only
          return
close doc
end tell

How to write shell script for export full backup in oracle 11g
Do you mean that export is your backup strategy ? is your database running in noarchivelog mode ? if so, then why ? if not so, then why not RMAN ?
need to remove 2 days of old backup.
If that mean remove files older than 2 days, you can use something like this :
$ find <absolute directory path> -mtime +2 -exec rm {} \;

Script to export Security file using maxl script

can anyone provide me the Script to export Security file using maxl script.It should create a log file and a batch file should also be there to schedule the Maxl script.Please help me with this

Hi,
You can use something like
[b]login admin password on localhost;
[b]spool on to 'c:\temp\log.txt';
[b]export security_file to data_file C:\temp\sec_file.txt;
[b]spool off;
[b]logout;
Then you can have a batch file that just calls the maxl script
essmsh name_of_maxl_script.mxl
The batch script can then be scheduled.
Cheers

Discoverer worksheet: working with data between multiple sheets

Hi All,
Is there a way to use data between multiple discoverer worksheets? What I am trying to do is combine data from different worksheets and display that data in another sheet. I believe it is not possible in discoverer at the moment (I might be wrong). I am not being able to do this any other way, because the data to be calculated requires user input. Which is (to my knowledge) only possible by using parameters via the worksheets. If there is a workaround, please let me know.
Regards

Your best best is a custom folder within the EUL and then create the parameters based on the custom folder.
If you don't want to do that you can join can create bogus joins between two folders by created an item called "join" or something like that and then get all the tables pulled into each other. Performance will likely be messy and require careful use of conditions, summations, etc... due to the fact the join will essentially be a Cartesian join of two tables.
To answer your direct question: No, there is no way to reference other worksheets for display purposes within discoverer.

Ways to put Multiple discoverer worksheets in a single Portlet

Hi all
Can anybody suggest me ways to put Multiple discoverer worksheets in a single Portlet. (10G release 2)
- Out of the box (no coding option)
- Java Beans options
Note:- the discoverer sheet portlet allows only 1 workseet.
Would appreciate any pointers/help in this regard
Cheers!!
Puneet

No - you don't need data in the same portlet to display them together.
A given page holds many portets - dependent as well as independent. That's the purpose of a portal, Oracle as other vendors - to bring together information from different systems (and the same system) and put it together on the same page to give a general picture of the situation.
Make two portlets - and make a page where you can add portlets side by side (either use two regions, or have one region that groups the portlets in columns) and place the two porlets there. They'll appear to the user on ONE page.
If you want the users to be able to place the two porlets indepently of your design, but always place them together, make a simple page where you do the layout and publish the page as a porlet. The users then get access to this porlet.
The simpler the porlets, the more of them, the more flexible and better performing website you get (remember, porlets are rendered in PARALLEL by Portal).
