Set Default Report Attributes

Hi,
Is is possible to set the default report attributes for interactive reports so when I create a new one I don't have to go through and change the defaults. Basically I want to set the "Show Null Values as" variable to null rather than a dash for all newly created Interactive Reports, I know I can change the value once the report is created but I'd rather it default to null in case I forget to change it.
I've searched though the interface and OTN with no luck, any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Standard reports (and hence the evil that is tabular forms) store sort columns persistently as user preferences. The <tt>apex_util.remove_sort_preferences</tt> method can be used to remove them, resetting reports to the default sort order. However this is not a precision instrument: it removes the user's sort preferences for all reports...
It is possible to remove the sort preference for individual reports using the <tt>apex_util.remove_preference</tt> method by reverse engineering the required sort preference name from the admin user preference report.

Unable to set default table attributes in Keynote

I've been trying to change the default table attributes in one of my themes, and as per the description in the Keynote manual (page 237-8), this should be a straightforward process:
1) In the slide navigator, create a new slide.
2) If you're setting up default attributes for a particular master slide (rather than all the masters in the current theme), click Masters in the toolbar and choose the master slide. [I want to change the table attributes in all master slides in the particular theme, I skip this step.)
3) Place a table on the slide.
4) Select the table and set its attributes.
5) Do one of the following: To make the table the default for only the current master slide, choose Format>Advanced>Define Table for Current Master. To make the table the default for all masters slides in the current theme, choose Format>Advanced>Define Table for All Masters.
6) If you don't want the table on the slide, delete the table.
Step 1) through 4) is unproblematic, but the second I try to execute step 5), the new formatting is all mixed up, and I am left with a table that looks nothing like the one I have just created in step 4). (Choosing to make the new table layout valid only in the current master doesn't help.)
Any thoughts on how to sort this out would be greatly appreciated! I should mention that following a similar procedure for diagrams works like a dream.

Hi!
          We have same problem!
         The layout can be selected in application, but it is not taken as default.
     We appreciate your feedback
Best Regards.

Is it possible to set default table attributes?

The default font in my tables is different than the default composition font I selected.
I know I can work around this by editing the table properties, then going to advanced settings, and specifying font attributes under the "inline styles" tab (every single time I create a table :\), but why should I have go through this when I have already declared my default font styles for all compositions?
Can't figure out a way around this :( It's making me reconsider using Thunderbid altogether (as much as I love Thunderbird - I need an easy way to send simple clean tables.)

What Os ?
What version of Thunderbird are you using?
Confirm you are not pasting anything into the table cell; you are actually typing the text in the cell.
In my version the default settings are being used in the table.
This is what i'm using:
Tools > Options > Display > formatting tab
Default font: Times new roman
Tools > Options > Composition > General tab
HTML: Font: variable width
So can you try these settings - set the font you wish to use in Display, so it is used generically and set Composition font to variable width.
then retest and post results.

How to set default number of records shown in an interactive report table?

How can I set the default number of rows shown on an interactive report?
The default seems to be 15, I can't find where this can be changed.

Hi John,
When you're logged into the development interface, run the page with the IR. Set the rows from 15 to 5 (for example) and click "GO". Now click on the Actions Menu icon (the green gear), click "Save Report". "Save as: As default report settings". Click Apply and your rows will be set.

How to set default value in transient boolean attribute in VO in ADF

Hi ADF Experts,
I have requirement like,I have viewObject with one transient booelan attribute,
I want to set default value of that boolean attribute as "True"
How can I achive that please help,
Tried every thing but no luck.

Hi,
I am not sure what is the use of setting a default value for a transient attribute in a read-only VO.
However, why not include that attribute with a default value in the query itself?
Something like
SELECT
Empno, Ename, Deptno, 'true' as BooleanTransAttr
FROM EMP
and set the type of the attribute to Boolean?

First i want to set value and then i want to fetch the same & want to check equals.

Hi,
In wdinit() method u can set the date
DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
Date today = Calendar.getInstance().getTime();
String reportDate = df.format(today);
wdContext.currentContextElement().setFromDate(reportDate);
Another way you have set the this formate like that
1. Create a Simple type under "Dictionaries->SimpleType" called DateFormat
2. Select the type as "date"
3. Go to the "Representation" tab and set the format as "dd/MM/yyyy" (or whatever u want, but month should be MM)
4.Bind the context attribute to the type created now.
Hope this helps u.

Is there any way we can set default value for a Date Attribute to current date in Master Data Services

Is there any way we can set default value for a Date Attribute to current date in Master Data Services.
I as well wants to know that is there any posibility to show Calendar control while input data into respective date attributes.
Thanks.

Hi Anagha,
So far i havent found any way to set todays date by default from MMI, but i guess this flow should work as workaroud
1. Add buisness rule which can set a default value when Date = NULL/Blank
2.get the entity table ,use -select EntityTable from mdm.tblEntity where Name = '<enter entity name>'
3.Go to that table and add a after update trigger like
if uda_<entityid>_<attributeid(Date attribute)> = default value
update uda_<entityid>_<attributeid(Date attribute)> =getdate() where id = <LastUpdatedRow>
I will check on this too from my side.
By the way AFAIK i dont think so calendar control integration is possible .

RRMX opens a default report. How to change this setting ?????

Hi all,
If we type RRMX transaction code, it should go to BEx, but user has reported that whenever he types RRMX it opens a particular REPORT. How can we change this setting so that the default report will not be opened, PLEASE ? It seems it started after upgrading to BW 3.5.
Thanks.

Rian,
Thanks for your response. I have created a TEST User Id with the User Id that has the problem. I am not getting any default report with the TEST User Id when I type RRMX, just it goes to BEx (blank) only, but not to the report.
I have followed your navigation steps (Business Explorer Tab/Setting/ New Workbook on embed) with TEST User Id and 'is based on permanent template' is checked' under 'New Workbook on embed', but not 'is empty'.
I will go to the User's desk tomorrow and check the BEx settings on his PC.
Thanks.

Setting Default Preferences for All Users in Crystal Reports Server 2008 v1

We are currently looking to set the default preferences in the CMC for all of our users.
I did locate this page Link: [How to set default preferences for all users in Infoview 3.1/CRS 2008]
The first part of the thread did seem promising but I am unable to find the sample .jsp code that people recommended.
I would assume that this scenario is common enough that someone knows a way to set universal preference defaults.
Thank you

I thought I could just run it too but when I attempt to I get a Windows Script Host error:
Script: C:\User Prefs.vbs
Line: 1
Char: 1
Error: Expected statement
Code: 800A0400
Source: Microsoft VBScript compilation error.
I noticed the first most line seems to be markup for a web interface though I am not familiar with vbs so I may be wrong. I used the publishing wizard to put the script on the CMC to attempt to run it through the CMC but it still does not work.

Access to customizing default: report templates

I seem to remember far back in the corners of my memory, someone here on the forum mentioning that although we didn't have access at the time (probably back at HTMLDB 2.0) to customize the default report templates, that there were plans to make this an option in a future version of Apex. Does anyone have any idea if this is something that is being planned, or better yet, available today?
If you're not sure what I'm talking about I'm referring to the field that says 'Report Template' in the 'Layout and Pagination' section of the 'Report Attributes' page in the application builder.
The problem I'm having is that I'm using the 'default: vertical report, look 2 (show null columns)' report template and I've got some long column headings that I want to include a line break between each word of the heading, so they're stacked vertical instead of wide horizontally. I've add HTML break tags to the headings but they're disappearing when the page is rendered.
I've made sure to set the 'Strip HTML' setting to 'No', but whether it's set to yes or no doesn't matter, the headings display the same either way.
BTW, doing the same thing in a template based multi-row report seems to work fine. However, trying to use/apply the 'Value Attribute Pairs' report template yields the same result as the default vertical look template.
So I have 2 questions:
1) anyone know how I can make these heading words stack up vertically, one word to a line?
2) are we going to get access to customize the default report templates?
Earl

Hello,
1) anyone know how I can make these heading wordsstack up vertically, one word to a line?
Probably the best way to do this is to just hard code
a <br /> between your words.That's exactly what I'm doing (and what I said in my original post), however those breaks are disappearing during page rendering when I choose the report templates I mentioned.
I don't understand why this technique works in the multi-row report templates and not in these vertically oriented value/attribute report layouts.
2) are we going to get access to customize thedefault report templates?
No, you should just use a regular theme based
template, the default report templates are there for
backwards compatibility and well basically for people
that don't care about the UI. Since your at the point
it seems you do care about UI the proper thing to do
is to move to a standard report template that you
have full control over.Fair enough. I'll look into that, but I think there's still an open question here as to why the HTML breaks aren't being returned in the page markup for these report layouts.

Set default image for no image found

Hi Folks,
I have a folder full of images and when en images is called form that directory and not found I would like the default image to show up.
I have added an HTAccess file with this content:
ErrorDocument 404 default.jpg
And added a default.jpg image in the directory.
I have used this approach successfully on a few other sites but in this instance when I open a page with a missing photo I still get the standard ugly missing image icon. However, if I open that image in a new tab I get a page with the text 'default.jpg' on it.
NOt sure why that happens but I guess it's something about it being a different hosting set up. Perhaps there is another way to do this that will work on this set up.
Anyone got an idea how I can fix it?
Cheers
Dave

If I remember well, in the Report Attributes, you should select the linked column. At the link image, there are 2 edit images(the default is the big one), but there is one more image which is smaller.
Hope it helps.

MASTER DETAIL - SET DEFAULT VALUES FOR ITEMS

I have a master detail page where on the master I do things like updating the entered_by and entered_date fields
by applying functions to set the item level details and the setting them to read only.
On the detail portion of the page I'd like to do the same but I don't see the details items on the page - only the master items.
The details portion is for comments so I'd like to have the commenter_name and commenter_date set to defined values
when I hit the add row button on the details portion.
Where are the detail items?
I'm using APEX 3.2
Thanks
Steve

Hi,
When you use master detail form, APEX generate 'Detail portion' as report. So if you edit the page, you may not see actual items for 'detail portion'.
If you want to set any default values or want to format these items, you may need to do as follows
1> Edit 'report' of 'detail portion'
2> Click on report attributes
3> Click on column, you want to set default values
4> Now here, Under 'Tabular Form Element' section you can do this by setting proper values to 'default type' and 'default' fields.
Hope it helps
Cheers
Hari

Setting default value of Tabular form item is not working

Hi,
I have a tabular form and in that I want to set the default value of the username to app_user. So in the default value of the item, I wrote v('app_user') and type Pl/SQL, but that does not seem to work. I tried the static application & page item with :app_user. That threw an error.
Also, I wanted to populate the date field in one column. Doesn't sysdate work?
Thanks,
Sun

Bob, I did read that. MY problem is that it is still not working. I am wondering if this is because the table is in execute query mode maybe? I am wondering if the default value needs to be added after the tabular data is populated through some other way? Maybe the default value would work only for static non database items?
ThanksYou're right, I just tested that using the default setup on the column in report attributes and it did not work.
I think you'll have to update the columns with the default value post query but I'm not sure exactly what you need to do.
I have a form that has a weight entry column. I tried changing the query to set the default value in the query
from..
Select Weight
From...
to
Select 999.99 Weight
From...That appeared to work, but the 999.99 value was not populated back to the Database since it wasn't entered through the form UI. APEX maintains the entered values internally so it can do its checksumm processing and update modified rows back to the DB. I'm thinking you could update what needs to be updated using Javascript in a Dynamic Action, but I'm afraid I don't know how to do that.
Excuse my incorrect assumption when first replying.
