Simple report generation problem

how to list all stock position for a choosen material for a choosen storage location in a given plant?

Hello zäpfle,
This is actually a known issue and already reported to NI R&D. As you mentioned, to solve this, you have to open and close the Excel report (with Word report everything seems to be fine). Since the task is closed just after the VI closes or open-and-close Excel, it seemed that not all references would close properly. The issue though isn't with properly closing the references, but rather deeper. However, a possible workaround would be to programmatically end the process just after closing the reference to Excel. Here is a link to a community example that demonstrates how to do just that:
Kill a task in Windows using System Exec.vi

Hope this helped. I am sorry for the inconvenience!
Kind regards,

Report generation problems on the WinNT target machine

I'm using report generation VI's to generate a standard report, mixed with text and graphs.
In development mode (LV 6.0.2; Win-NT 4.0 SP6)there are no problems to print it. As soon as I make an application (application builder 6.0) and transfer it to the target machine (Win-NT 4.0 SP6; run time engine 6.0.2) I get an error -2147352567 unable to load picture..to Append front panel image to report.vi> If I delete the VI "Append front panel image to report.vi", I can print the text of my report without problems. Do you have any idea?

I could fix the bug in the meantime. I had installed an older version of the Internet Explorer. When I updated the target PC to Internet Explorer Vers. 5.5, there are no problems anymore. I think it must be a problem of ActivX.

Word report generation problem

I have a problem with my report generation toolkit. I have programmed a test program (main_program), where i can load a data and print it to a word document.
First i have to load the data(data.txt) and then i have to push the print button.
The header of my is ok, but when the Subvi (write2) tried to generate the graph in the Document always an error occured!
I got an error message but i don*t found the reason why the program stops!?

BI Publisher Report generation problem in Siebel

Hi Experts,
Here is the scenario, let's say i have 2 BIP reports in siebel, named Report A and Report B. i tried using 1500 records to generate Report A and Report B. I view the status of the reports in My BI Publisher View in Siebel, i noticed that after 5 hours, Report A is successfully generated, and report B still doesn't show if it successful or not, after 2 days, report B still doesn't show if it is successful or not.
Based on the scenario above, here are my questions:
a.) is there a way that we can increase the report generation for BI Publisher integrated with Siebel? 5 hrs of generating 1500 records i think is too slow, specially if that specific report is required to be generated everyday.
b.) do you know why Report B still doesn't show if it successfully generated eventhough both reports was generated using equal amount of records?
Thanks in advance! :)

Here are the two steps I took to get the VI to work on my machine:
1) Recompiled the code by ctrl-shift-clicking on the run arrow.
2) Changed the string in the 3rd frame of the sequence that goes into the Append Front Panel Image to Report from I Graph plot.vi to I_Graph_plot.vi.
After making the changes I did a File->Save All.

A report generation problem

Hey all,
has anybody seen this error?
An Error prevented report generation.
Error class: jet.jectc.ReadFailureExecption
Error message: ..\reporting\canned\Novell
Reporting\Zen5Inventory\en\Zen5Inventory.cat cannot be found.
How do I Fix it?
thanks

I have tried that. It did not work. I'm not sure as to whether I
should look for the Zen5Inventory.cat file on the server, or
workstation. Also, I am running ZEN 3.0 with SP1a applied.

Report Generation Problem

First, I tried posting the question coming up in a web case,
but that was on 9/27. Anyone know what the
est. time is to expect a response?
In the mean time, maybe one of you could help?
Our tech support person installed RoboHelp Server.
When trying to access the reports, we're getting this
error...
Server object error 'ASP 0178 : 80070005'
Server.CreateObject Access Error

The call to Server.CreateObject failed while checking
permissions. Access is denied to this object.
Any suggestions on what to look for?
Here's what we're using...

Thanks

The way to get around the timeout problem is to get rid of the timeout. If you have a real business requirement that you have to run a query that takes 30 minutes then it conflicts with the other business requirement that queries aren't allowed to take more than 3 minutes. Conflicts between requirements should be resolved by managers or designers, not by programmers whose job is only to implement designs.

Report generation problem in 6.1

Query report generation problem

Hi,
I want to know how to view the queryvalues without variable screen but after report showing the values if i click the variable screen option it should show the screen.
If u know pls tell me.
Thanks and regds,
S.Girikumar.

from what i understand you would like this below functionality:
1) Run the report without giving the values in the variable screen.
2) use the variable screen now to select the values.
one of the possible solution:
1) remove the mandatory option for all the variables
eg: bex > 0customer > char values > select the variable > edit > remove mandatory option
2) run the query
3) you will be prompted with the variable screen, just say yes, without entering any values.
4) report is displayed
5) press the refresh button
6) variable screen is displayed
7) give the variable values now.
let me know if i interpreted the questions wrong.
Thanks,
BWer

Report Generation Fails

I having trouble with ARD 3.1 generating reports. I select a remote computer to run a report on and then it queues. The report than hangs in the process of generating. In activity monitor ARD shoots up to 145% use of CPU when the report tries to generate. the ARD Agent then goes to "Not Responding". Also several times ARD has completely crashed when attempting reports. No firewalls are running and the test computer I'm trying to reach is on the same subnet. Any ideas?
MacBookPro Core2Duo Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I have been having problems generating reports.
Constant messing around, trying, failing, changing prefs etc. has fixed the problem almost 100%. This using ARD 3.1 on machines on the LAN (Airport) and via the internet.
However ... there is a single report (Application Usage) on one machine, via the internet, which I can see being 'Collected' via the Task progress, but it crashes ARD 3.1 instantly every time when it starts to transfer to my Admin machine.
This leads me to suspect that the Report Generation problems have more to do with Cache issues, than anything else. (Rebuilding the report doesn't help).
Does anyone have any specific info on what and where ARD 3.1 keeps its caches?

Urgent report invoice problem

I have a serious problem with a invoice report that doesn't display all the lines and only prints on one page but the total is correct please help not a guru

Check the properties of your outer most frame in the report, vertical sizing should be variable, it is not a report generation problem but a printing problem that is why
your totals are correct.

I can see from your code that you are a beginner. Your coding style is very Labview no-no. But well every Labview pro have some time been a beginner I have some problems understanding or grasp the essence of your problem. Can you post your failed attempt to use rapport generation. It would help in the understanding of your problem.
Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted

Problem building application using Report Generation Toolkit, LV 2011

I'm using LabVIEW 2011 under Windows 7.
I tried to use Application Builder to create an executable from a large body of code. One thing the application does is load VIs into a subpanel and run them.
Application Builder created the executable and gave no error message. The built application ran except that it couldn't run any of the dynamic VIs.
I finally succeeded in doing a screen grab on a transient dialog (about 1/10 sec. appearance). The dialog showed an attempt to load <vilib>:\Utility\NIReport.llb\NI_report.lvclass.
In one dynamic VI I commented out the call to the only VI that uses the Report Generation Toolkit (called only from dynamic VIs, all of which call it). Sure enough, when I built the application with that change and ran it, the dynamic VI that didn't invoke the Report Generation Toolkit did successfully load into the subpanel and run.
So, trying to prove to myself that that was the only problem, I wrote a VI that does nothing but load a VI into a subpanel and run it. User can choose one of two VIs: one that doesn't call the Report Generation Toolkit (or do much of anything), and one that does. Both VIs run fine standalone.
The not-much-of-anything VI loaded and ran in the subpanel. The other VI didn't--the same dialog, mentioned above, popped up for 1/10 second or less. Screen grab is attached.
When I included LVClass and NIReport.llb folders in the project (from vi.lib\Utility: Snapshot folders), and "Always Included" those folders (per a suggestion on this forum from a few years ago), the result was the same. The result was also the same when I included either one of those folders but not the other. Likewise it doesn't matter whether I add the dynamic VIs as "Always Included" or not.
Another piece of information that may be pertinent: when adding the NIReport.llb folder, I got a message that it was impossible to add a certain VI that's part of some report-type class, because a VI of that name already existed in the project. Screenshot of that dialog is also attached.
VIs and project file are also attached along with the two screenshots. I hardcoded VI paths, so put everything into C:\Testing if you want to see what the code does--or hack as desired, etc.
I will be deeply grateful for any help! And I apologize in advance if there's already some exact or close-enough solution posted--but I doubt there is. I looked around.
Thanks very much,
mws

Test-App-Build.zip ‏336 KB

Hi again,
If you extract all files in the original zip attachment to a folder called C:\Testing on a Windows 7 machine running LV 2011, and then use the build script within the project file to build the application, you can run the application and see what happens. You can also play around with the build parameters, rebuild, run, and see what happens then. You can also open my VIs and see what I'm doing.
The application lets you pick one of two dynamic VIs to run in a subpanel. One VI contains calls both to Report Generation VIs and some functions from the Advanced File Functions palette. The other VI does not.
When you pick the first VI to load and run (the one with the Report Generation and Advanced File Functions calls), it loads into the subpanel but is not executable.
When you pick the second VI to load and run, it does load into the subpanel and execute. So there's nothing wrong with the way I load and run a VI in the subpanel.
In the development environment, the whole thing runs with no problems.
Evidently the built application has problems resolving paths of something called by Report Generation VIs and by the Advanced File Functions I use.
I've done a lot of experimenting and no luck. I've looked in forum archives, etc. etc., for possible solutions. I'm hoping there's some simple solution I've missed.
Thanks very much for any help!

Custom Report generation in the Simple UserInterface

Hello,
I've created a workspace, a project and some sequences in TestStand 4.0. I've also created a custom report generation. This all works fine in TestStand.
The custom report file is a txt file. The custom report generation is chosen above the default report generation, because the workspace directory is placed at the top of the "Search Directories".
When I open the main sequence file of this project in the SImple UserInterface, the the default report generation is used. Why doesn't it use my custom report generation? And how can I solve this problem?
Regards,

Niek L.
Before we address your current problem, let me describe a bit about what is currently happening. First, when working with TestStand, the .tws file that is created when you save a workspace file is something that can only be opened in the Sequence Editor environment. Which explains why, when you try to open this file using the Simple UI you get an error. Since you can't open a workspace file in a Simple UI the search directory that your workspace uses is not valid.
The easiest way to address this situation is to create a custom search directory from TestStand»Sequence Editor»Configure»Search Directories... then select Add. This will allow us to hard code a path that will reference the appropriate directory that the workspace is located in. We can then move this custom search directory to the top of the list. Now, when we use the use the Simple UI we will be able to load that sequence file because it is now part of the available search directories. This should also allow you to be able to load your custom report generation.
