Showing parameters selected in a form in the report.

Hi Arun,
Thanks for your update.What I'm exactly trying to do is
I created a form in Forms 6i in which the user enters a couple
of parameters .Then I'm calling a report created in 6i with
RUN_PRODUCT option.I'm using the values entered the FORM
as parameters for the report and I'm able to run the report.
How ever I have to show those parameters which are
being passed from FORM to REPORT in the header section of the
report so that user can see the selections he/she has made.
Say if I have 2 elements in the form
DEPT NO and COMMISSION when I call the report from the form
I want to see those in the Header Section of the report.
If no selections are made in FORM then
I want to see something like this.
DEPT NO : ALL COMMISSION :ALL
Again thanks in advance,
Arathi

Please solve Radio buttons (when selected) will then display on the report

Each of these new Radio buttons (when selected) will then display on the report in the same locations, which is after the existing columns.
Check boxes are by default checked.
When the 1st radio button is selected then a new column will be displayed in the ALV output
Next to A.
Like wise when 2nd radio button selected then a new column will be displayed in the ALV output next to B.
Like wise the ALV output is displayed.
A   is a checkbox
B is a checkbox
C   is a checkbox
D   is a checkbox
1   is a radio button
2   is a radio button
3 is a radio button
4   is a radio button

How the show parameter form for the report over the web by using an url ?

hello,
my url to call my report is :
http://server/reports/rwservlet?report=rtm0350.rep&desformat=html&userid=un/pw@hostring&server=rep_server&paramform=yes
but it doesn't show me the parameter form to introduce the parameters and I get :
'FINISH SUCCESSFULLY'
has anybnody any idea ?
thank's

If this is a 'paper' report then =yes has always worked for me as long you have parameters declared in the report.
Description Use PARAMFORM to specify whether to display the Runtime Parameter
Form when you execute a report through CGI or a servlet. PARAMFORM is used only to
supply parameters to paper layout reports, not JSP-based Web reports.
Syntax PARAMFORM=YES|NO|HTML
Values
■ YES Display the Parameter Form.
■ NO Do not display the Parameter Form.
■ HTML Display the Parameter Form in HTML format.

How to display a Report 9i from Forms if the Report has a Parameter Form?

Hi,
could some one please post me a code sample to show how to call a (paper layout, RDF) Report from Forms if I would like it to display the Report's parameter form first?
Thank you in advance.

I used the following code segment do achieve the job, but I get "REP-546: Warning: The value of restricted LOV parameter P_ALAL is not among the selectable values" message, even though I would like to specify the P_ALAL value on the report's parameter Form.
declare
paramlist_id ParamList;
tmp_riport_name varchar2(200);
report_id          report_object;
report_job_id varchar2(200);
tmp_id number;
begin
-- init
tmp_riport_name := null;
          -- parameter list
paramlist_id := get_parameter_list('mytmp_params');
if not id_null(paramlist_id) then
destroy_parameter_list(paramlist_id);
end if;
paramlist_id := Create_Parameter_List('mytmp_params');
add_parameter( paramlist_id, 'PARAMFORM', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'YES' );
          -- call report
report_id := find_report_object( 'DUMMY' );
if report_id.id is null then
     return;
end if;
-- display
set_report_object_property( report_id, report_execution_mode, runtime );
set_report_object_property( report_id, report_comm_mode, synchronous );
set_report_object_property( report_id, report_destype, 'preview' );
set_report_object_property( report_id, report_desformat, 'PDF' );
set_report_object_property( report_id, report_server, 'rep_geoias' );
     set_report_object_property( report_id, report_filename, :ALAP_REPORTS_NAME||'.rep' );
report_job_id := run_report_object( report_id, paramlist_id );
tmp_id := to_number(substr( report_job_id, length(name_in('rep_geoias'))+2 ));
web.show_document( '/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||tmp_id||'?server=rep_geoias', '_blank' );
END;

I think you specified report object name incorrect.
in command line:
repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('REPORT1');
Report1 must be name of report object in Form Builder.
However to call report from Oracle Form you must do more work. For example:
- Create report server name
- Adding some code to set property for report object base on report server you created.

Selecting all hierarchy nodes in the report

Hi Friends,
In my report I have a Hierarchy 0ORGUNIT, there are a few sub nodes under this hierarchy.
When the user runs the report if they want to see all the nodes under a top node, they have to expand each node till the last node and select them one by one.
My question is, is it possible to select all the sub nodes under a node just by selecting the top node?.
If yes can someone please let me know how to do this?.
I did check the sdn, but could get anything.
Thanks in adv.
Regards
BN

Hi,
You can do that for the initial display i.e. the very first time you execute the query but once you collapse all the nodes you will not be able to expand all the nodes with one click.
For showing different levels in the first display go to the characteristic properties on which you have hierarchy maintained, in the hierarchy properties section set the option 'Expand to Level' and hierarchy will be expaned for all the nodes till the level you select.

I have two parameters for Start Date and End Date.
in Chrome I can't select the date to have report in period of time, but it works correctly in IE and exactly according to what I have designed and see in the report viewer in SSDT.

Need to drag current value of form to the report

dear all
i have a standard form for example (PO) i wanna make a report on that report , but i wanna drag this report in the menu (for example when i press view in the toolbar i find the report name & i can run it from there) what i want is to make this report having the current values of the fields of that form . if any one have any idea how to do that please send to me .
thanks

You won't be able to do this with Built-in Forms functionality - you will have to create a JavaBean or Pluggable Java Component (PJC) to accomplish this. Check out this Drag 'n Drop bean on the Oracle Forms Community web site. This will give you a starting place for your development. If you are able to create a workable JavaBean, please concider contributing your code the the Oracle Forms Community so others can benefit from your development.
Hope this helps,

Display parameters in the report....

Hi friends,
I have one requirement to show up the parameters the user has selected in the 'report customization form' in the report .Any thoughts pl help..I know it is possible in dynamic pages but i never tried in the report ...pl help
Vishnu singireddy

You can try something in the additional PL/SQL section..
If you are running it as portlet:
htp.prn( <portal_schema>.wwv_name_value.get_string( l_arg_names,
l_arg_values,p_reference_path|| '.<parameter_name>');
If you are running in Normal Full Page Mode
htp.prn( <portal_schema>.wwv_name_value.get_string( l_arg_names,
l_arg_values,'<parameter_name>');
e.g.
htp.prn(portal30.wwv_name_value.get_string( l_arg_names,
l_arg_values,p_reference_path|| '.department');
Thanx,
Chetan.

Vertical ComboBox does not show its selected Item's label

Hello,
We have created a custom vertical ComboBox.
Normal combobox has been rotated to -90 degrees.
It aims to show its selected label and open up the menu at proper x,y coordinate.
To open up the menu at proper x,y coordinate, we have overriden "downArrowButton_buttonDownHandler" function to move the dropdown accordingly.
However, the selected label is not visible on screen. Rotated text does not show up without embedding fonts. Hence, We have tried embedding font for the same. It doesn't work though.
Please help.
Regards,
Tanu

Embedded font isn't working for rotated button/combobox. Though, it works fine with rotated label
Please refer to below given code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Style>
     .mystyle1 {
        fontFamily:myPlainFont;
        fontSize: 32pt;
</mx:Style>
<mx:Script>
      * Embed a font by name.
     [Embed(systemFont='Arial',
        fontName='myPlainFont',
        mimeType='application/x-font'
     private var font1:Class;
</mx:Script>
<mx:Panel title="Embedded Fonts Using ActionScript">
     <mx:VBox>
        <mx:Label
            styleName="mystyle1"
            text="Embedded font"
            rotation="15"
        />
        <mx:Button
            styleName="mystyle1"

SPM 5.2 - problem with reason/activity fields - not showing in the report

Dear experts,
I have a situation that is hard to describe.
We have SPM 5.2 - all set and working, now the problem is that for some of the FF sessions the tool is either not reporting the reason/activity fields (due to some technical problem that is occuring randomly) or the users have found a way to abuse the fields and make thier way around them. (these fields are very important for our SOX controls)
I have created test users to see how they are entering without filling the reason/activity fields, but no luck - i couldnt enter.
As you know the Activity field is mandatory text field and at least one character must be entered, but I don`t think this is the workaround, because even if you put space the report still will show it. I have examples where the report is not showing anything.
The worst is that I can`t simulate such cases.
Have you ever heard of such nosense?
Thank you,
Iliya

I think I found it - Application deficiency. It is the language that you are logged with. If it is not English the application is not recording the text that you type in the reason/activity fields upon FF session.
I hope the latest patches are fixing this!

Email the reports by filling selection variables

I have the following requirement.Could you please help me the with steps to complete it?.
I have few reports which needs to be emailed to the users at monthly once(letus say 2nd date of every month).I have a Fiscal year period variable in selection.Every month 2nd date the report should execute with previous period as selection and email the report to the users.
How this fiscal year period variable can be filled with previous period value by the system automatically everymonth?.
Using Broadcaster how we can fill the variable values automatically?.
Please help me with the steps.
Thanks in advance..
Regards
Soujanya

Soujanya
Instead of having variables that will prompt you for period values, use SAP or Customer Exit which will derive the Previous Period Values for you.
You may end up with a report people run on an ad hoc basis that allows them enter user entry variables and a copy where the only difference is that you use Customer Exits on time instead.

Export: In the Save as dialog, the file name is always shown as Crystalviewer instead of the report nameu00A0

Post Author: sijdk

hi,
we are using crystal report server XI. in this i am not able to export a report with particular report name. see the following steps.
Generate a report. Click the Export icon.Select the format in which the report has to be stored and click Ok button
Expected Behavior:The Save As form with the report name as file name should be displayed
Actual BehaviorFile download window is displayed showing the name of report as crystalviewer.rpt and when Save button is clicked, the Save AS dialog with the filename as Crystalviewer is displayed.The user has to specify a meaningful report name

Post Author: foghat
CA Forum: Exporting
This sounds about right, I can't recall if I've never seen Crystal default to the .rpt name when exporting a report. In developer XI, reports saved on the enterprise server have some crazy long non-nonsensical unique identifier on export. If the report is saved locally, it just gives untitled.xxx on export. That said, I find the users usually end up renaming the report file name anyways, so not a big issue.

Get the report list in a PL/SQL procedure

Hi to all,
I need to get the list of the personal report of a specified user in a PL/SQL procedure, is this possible?
My procedure should delete not "standard" report of a specified portal user.
Then i must have the list of all user's reports and after do my delete logic.
Jhon Dhon

Jhon -
It sounds to me that what you want to do is have a list that is generated based upon the identification of an individual. You can do this a number of ways, but I think you would want to write a straight query to accomplish this rather than a PL/SQL procedure. A query to accomplish what you're looking to do would look something like this:
SELECT
person_name,
person_id_number,
other info you need to see in the output
FROM
table_name (that contains the info you need to see)
WHERE
conditional clauses to obtain only data you wish to see
AND :p_person_id = table_name.person_id_number
The AND clause line will return the employee the user wishes to see based upon that person's ID number. This information is asked for in a parameter form before the report is run. The :p_person_id is referred to as a bind variable. You can read more about this on Metalink or OTN.
HTH,
Steve
