Sort by different sets in the report

Hi, I have a report requirement like.
orders sorted by (set1)ch1, ch2, ch3, ch4.
open quotes sorted by (set2)ch1, ch2, ch3, ch4, ch5, ch6, ch7.
if the user selects orders, he should see only set1 fields
if the user selects quotes, he should see set 2 fields.
how do we do this?
Thanks,
Radha

There is nothing you can pass user selection to sort mechanism. Bex or Web is not to that standard, but in the future it will have it. Sorry for now.
thanks.

Reporting Services will not automatically use a different replica for the report server databases when a failover occurs. How to overcome this issue

Reporting Services offers limited support for using AlwaysOn Availability Groups with report server databases. The report server databases can be configured in AG to be part of a replica; however Reporting Services will not automatically use a different
replica for the report server databases when a failover occurs. How to overcome this issue? is there any workaround for that..

Hi.
With the AlwaysOn listener you should have a single DNS name to connect to regardless of which cluster node is active. Are you using the listener service? If not, please refer to the link below.

Is PaperSize set in the Report Design Machine Dependent and not Universal?

Hello
I have been having a problem with setting a Custom Paper size in CR2010 for Visual Studio 2010 VB Net and in the solution that I found, the author says that
The fact is that crystal report save the information of the format of a report in a non-portable way!
It saves the "ID" of the format instead of his "Name"!
The problem is that in Windows this ID is machine dependent.
I created a Paper size for C6 envelopes, and used that Paper size name when I created a report. But whatever settings I used for setting PaperSize at runtime, the Report printed on the Default Paper size for the printer which in my case is A4.
Using this code
Dim doctoprint As New System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument()
            doctoprint.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = "YourPrinterName" '(ex. "Epson SQ-1170 ESC/P 2")
            For i = 0 To doctoprint.PrinterSettings.PaperSizes.Count - 1
                Dim rawKind As Integer
                If doctoprint.PrinterSettings.PaperSizes(i).PaperName = "MyCustomFormatName" Then
                    rawKind = CInt(doctoprint.PrinterSettings.PaperSizes(i).GetType().GetField("kind", Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance Or Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic).GetValue(doctoprint.PrinterSettings.PaperSizes(i)))
                    oRpt.PrintOptions.PaperSize = rawKind
                    Exit For
                End If
            Next
from Stefano on http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/vscrystalreports/thread/e16a1630-ad0c-4fda-8351-16e0807072eb I have been able to print on the custom Paper Size Option that I had created
My question is, if I am making a report which is going to be used by other users on different computers, do I need to use the code to find the correct paper size ID on the Users computer for all paper sizes, both standard sizes and custom sizes?
For example will myReportDocument.PrintOptions.PaperSize = PaperSize.PaperA4 in the code not work on another users computer if their printer has a Default paper size of Letter? Will I need to use the above code example to find the paper size ID for the user's machine?
Thank you

Hello Ludek
Thank you for the reply
Not the same query - the two links to the two questions you listed were how to overcome the problem of making the report print using a custom size
In finding a solution to that, the suggestion was made that the PaperSize stored by the Report is a machne dependent ID - if that is the case then is it correct that when the report is used on a different computer by another user, that the Paper ID size stored by the Report will not work for the second computer and that I need to include code to find the second users Paper ID that matches the paper size that the report requires even for standard paper sizes?
I understand that custom papersizes may require code to find the Machine Paper ID, but am now not sure if the problem arises for all paper sizes when the report is used on third party computers

Different Units in the Report

Hi All,
We have a cube in which we store delivery quantities in sales units. We have another ODS in which we store the delivery quantities in different units, say Litres, KGs, Pounds etc.
Ex:
Cube:
DelNo quantity Unit
1001        100      L
1002     150     KG
ODS:
PODNo Item Quantity Unit
1001     10   100     L
1001     10   160     KG
1001      10   200     UG6
1002     10   110     L
1002      10   150     KG
1002        10   190     UG6
The User wants a flexibility to look at the quantities in different units i.e they want a variable on selection screen in which they input the required Unit, say KG, then all the quantities in the report should show in KGs.
In the above given example for Del No 1001, cube stores the quantities in 'L' but it has to be displayed in KGs by taking the KGs value from the ODS.
Is it possible to do this?
Both DelNo in cube and PODNo in ODS store the Delivery Number but both have different technical names.
Rgds,
Nene.

Hi nene,
                To do Quantity conversions at report levels,
please follow these steps.
1)Maintain settings at infoobject level(under BEX settings tab),
whenever u made this setting and activate the infoobject one DSO name with "Generated Data Store Object " will be generated.
2)Run the DTP where the default DSO was generated
3)goto Tcode RSUOM,goto tab "Conversion factors",give reference object(as which object u need unit conversion)
4)Under UOM tab select the option of source quantity and target quantity unit
5)Goto BEX,under the properties of keyfigure >conversion>unitconversion have to be taken,variable comes here as conversiontype u have given at RSUOM tcoce.
Hope this helps you
Thanks,
Praveena.

Cannot implment security setting on the report level - SSRS 2012

Hi All:
I am having a weird problem on my SSRS 2012 reporting portal, I cannot click any of the drop down list like the example below. Is there anything from the setting?
It is not only about the reporting level, any arrow on the reporting server, like data source, are kind of dead as well.
Please kindly help and thanks in advance.
Cheers
Johnny

Hi JohnnyKahWang,
According to your description, you can view folders and reports on report manager, but you could not click any of the drop down list.
Reporting Services uses role-based security to grant user access to a report server, and there are two types of roles: Item-level roles and System-level roles. Access to reports, folders, models, shared data sources, and resources is controlled through item-level
role assignments. Each user who requires access to a report server must have at least one item-level role assignment. On a new installation, only local administrators have access to a report server. In this case, a local administrator need to create a role
assignment which has Manage folders and Manage reports task to the account by following steps:
Click Home at the top of the page to open the Report Manager home page.
Click the drop-down arrow next to the folders and reports.
Click New Role Assignment.
In Group or user name, specify the name of a group or account.
Select a role which can perform Manage folders and Manage reports tasks.
Click OK to save the role assignments.
For more information about Setting Item-Level Permissions on a Report Server, please refer to the following document:

If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.

Show a graph without (or hiding) the data set inside the report

Hi everybody,
I created a report very simple with 3 columns:
1) description
2) minutes (number)
3) calculated field (varchar) - where the minutes are transformed in a string which shows weeks, days, hours and minutes
Then I created a graph, initially based on the minutes (Y axis) and the descriptions (X axis)
Now, in my report I'd like to see only 2 columns: the description and the calculated field, but if I delete the column 'minutes', also the graph disappears.....
So, my question is this: Is there a way to hide the minutes column in order to show ONLY the description and the calculated field but at the same time show also the graph (where Y values are always the minutes) ?
Thanks in advance
Alex

Hi Frank,
thanks for your response.
I created a fragment-based flow and dragged it onto the main page as a region component. The main page contains the panelAccordian with its showDetailItem's. Each of the showDetailItem components of the panelAccordian contain such a region component.
Now I set the partial trigger's property of the region component pointing to the showDetailItem component which contains the region but nothing changed. The graph is still not visible at the first click on the detailItem. I also set the trigger's property of the region component pointing to the panelAccordian but also nothing happens.
Regards
Michael

Show 3 different currencies in the Report

Hi Experts,
In my query I have three key figures which are shown in local currency. Now i have a new requirement wherein they would like to see the key figures in local, document and group currency based on selection.
How do I go about it?
Should I create three different columns for each of these key figures and then do conversion but this would look very messy and ugly.
Is there another way wherein in the selection screen I can ask the user to select his local currency, target currency and then exe

Hello,
I am not sure what you mean by ugly..does it mean more number of records??
As other have suggested you have the identifier currency type to identify the currencies but if not present then you will have to go for currency conversion.
If you want to give selections at the screen then you will have to do currency conversion at the query level.
There are a lot of documents which explains currency conversion at query level.
If you do currency conversion at query level then you will not to create any extra column...the user will have to just select the target currency while running the query and you will have to use the currency conversion in the key figure properties...this will give you the values in the currency you require.
you will have to create a input enabled variable on 0currency and use it in the query as restriction. search the SDN for documents as you will find a lot ofdocument on how to do it.

Sorting in dataset vs sorting in the report

Are the some guidelines on when to use sorting in dataset vs sorting in the report?

Hi JoeSchmoe115,
In Reporting Services, we can add ORDER BY clause to presort data that is retrieved for a report in the dataset queries. Or we can sorting groups or sorting by aggregate values in the report. When we add ORDER BY clause to sort the data in the order we want
it sorted in the report. Presorted data improves report processing time because of the way it is stored in memory. And there are many report processing tasks do not require sorting data before processing it. For example, SUM is not order-dependent and Data
within group instances is not automatically sorted.
So sorting groups or sorting by aggregate values is much simpler in the report than in the query and is frequently more efficient also. If we do not need sorted data in the report, do not set sort expressions on the dataset. For more details, please see:
Troubleshooting Reports: Report Performance
Hope this helps.

OBIEE Answers does not display the result set of a report query

Hi,
We have a pivot table type of report in Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition v.10.1.3.3.2 Answers that has the following characteristics:
     3 Pages
     3 Sections , 4 Columns
     18363 Rows in the result set
As per the NQQuery.log, the query for this report executes successfully resulting in 18363 rows. However, nothing comes up in the display on Answers. Moreover, no error is reported. The instanceconfig.xml file has the following setting:
<PivotView>
     <CubeMaxRecords>30000</CubeMaxRecords>
     <CubeMaxPopulatedCells>300000</CubeMaxPopulatedCells>
</PivotView>
Even with these settings, Answers just returns a blank page - nothing is displayed in the name of the result set of the report query. Has anyone encountered this problem scenario before?
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Piyush

Hi Fiston / Pradeep,
Thanks for your inputs. A few points to note:
-> I am actually not getting any error message in answers or the NQQuery log. Moreover I am not getting any errors related to "query governor limit exceeding in cube generation" also.
-> I have other pivot table type of reports in the same repository that work fine. In fact the report which has this issue even works sometimes - what actually is happening is that if I alter the number of sections from 3 to 4, then the result set changes from 14755 Rows to 18363 Rows and as per the NQQuery.log in both cases the query completes successfully. However, when the result set has 14755 rows, I get to see the output in Answers; however when the result set is 18636 rows, the Answers screen just goes blank and does not show any output or error. This makes me believe that there is some parameter in instanceconfig or the NQSconfig file - I have tried a lot of changes but nothing works !
Any help is much appreciated.
Best Regards,
Piyush

The Report is Empty.

Hi,
Im using Crystal Reports 2008 on VS.NET 2005 and .NET 2.0
I set the dataset to the report programatically.
The report viewer is empty.
But the report has more than 2 pages.
When I click next page on the Crystal Report Toolbar, the report data appears. But not when it is loaded.
This has worked fine before. The code has not been changed but something did change and screwed up the report.
Please help me here.
Aswin Dwarakanath.

I'd recommend the following:
Export the report to Crystal Reports format. See if the fields (in the CR designer) are stripped out from the exported report. If they are , you have a dataset issue where you are not matching the schema the report is expecting. To check that, do the following:
1) Write out your dataset to XML:
myDataset.WriteXml(xmlPath, XmlWriteMode.WriteSchema)
so, in your case you want to write out the xml after
cr.Subreports.Item("Transaction Breakdown").SetDataSource(clientTotals) and
cr.Subreports.Item("Last10Weeks").SetDataSource(transactionTotals)
E.g.;
cr.Subreports.Item("Transaction Breakdown").SetDataSource(clientTotals)
clientTotals.WriteXml(xmlPath, XmlWriteMode.WriteSchema)
cr.Subreports.Item("Last10Weeks").SetDataSource(transactionTotals)
transactionTotals.WriteXml(xmlPath, XmlWriteMode.WriteSchema)
Now, I do not see where or how you are setting the datasource to the main report, so if you are also using dataset, do the same for it.
2) Open your report in the CR designer.
3) Go to the Database menu and select "Set datasource location"
4) Choose "Create new connection"
5) Choose ADO .NET (XML)
6) Point to your xml
7) Click on he <Update> button.
If you get a field mapping dialog, the schema of your dataset is different from what the report is expecting and you need to adjust that.

[APEX 3] Requested source data of the report has been modified

Hello APEX-Friends,
I have a common problem but the situation is a bit different here. Many of you might know the "invalid set of rows requested the source data of the report has been modified" problem. Often it occurs on submit. That means, you have a report, you select rows, you do things, you submit the page and everything blews up.
This is because you enter some values into fields the report depends on and so you modify your report parameters and the source data changes.
But:
In my case I have a dynamically created report that blews up before any submits occur or values change.
My query is a union of two selects. Both query different views. Those views use a date field as parameter and some compare functions.
I read the field with a V-Function i wrapped arround the apex V Function - declared as deterministic. My date compare function is also declared deterministic (I doubt this makes any differences as it might be only important for the optimizer, but as long as I don't know exactly what APEX evaluates, I go for sure).
I ensured, that the date field is set by default with the current date (and that works, because my interactive report initially displays correct data from the current date).
So everything is deterministic and the query must return same results on subsequent calls, but APEX still throws this "source data has changed" error and I am to 99.99% sure, that this cannot be true.
And now the awesome thing about this:
If I change the value of the date field, an javascript performs a submit. The page is reloaded (without resetting pagination!) and everything works fine. I can leave the page, reenter, do things - everything works well.
But if I log into the application and directly move to the corrupted report and try to use the pagination without editing fields or submitting the page the error occurs.
Do you have any Idea what's happing there? I could try to workaround this by submitting the page the first time it's entered to trigger this "mystery submit" that gets everything working. But I would like to understand this issue and have a clean solution.
Thanks in advance,
Mike aka UniversE

Okay, I found a solution, but I do not understand it - it might be a design flaw in APEX.
I mentioned the date field that is used in the query. I also mentioned that it is set with the current date by default. I did not mention how.
There are some possibilities in APEX to do so.
1. Default-Setting in the element properties
2. Static assignment if no value is in session cache
3. Computation before header
I did the first and second.
BUT:
An interactive report seems to work as follows. A query is executed to get all rows of the report. Then a second query is executed to get the rows that shall be displayed. And the order is screwed up, I think.
1. The first report query to get all rows
2. The elements are loaded and set to default values
3. The second report query to get the display rows
And that's the reason why nothing worked. Scince I added a computation before header the date field is set before the report queries are executed and everything works all fine now.
But I think it's a design flaw. Either both queries shall be executed before Regions or afterwards but not split as field values might change when elements are loaded.
Greetings,
UniversE

Moving the Reporting Services and Report Server DB into AlwaysON Availability Group

I have configured the new set of SQL 2012 AlwaysOn Availability Group and need to move the SSRS and it's Report Server DB into that Availability Group.
Can anyone give tell me the steps to do this move?
Can I just backup the ReportServer DB into the AG server then import that DB into the SSRS running on the new AlwasyOn AG SQL?

Hello,
Based on your description, it seems that you want to move the Report Server database to a different server. If so, both the reportserver and reportservertempdb databases must be moved or copied together. You can move the databases by using Detaching
and Attaching or Backup and Restore.
What's more, you should also backup the encryption keys for the report server database you want to move and then restore to the new server.
You can configure report server databases in Always On Availability Group to be part of a replica; however Reporting Services will not automatically use a different replica for the report server databases when a failover occurs

How to Show Different set of Blob images in every page

Hi i am using Crystal Report Server XI RAS Embedded Edition to built Dynamic Reports.
Now i have two datasets
1. Main query with imageid field
2. list of image blobs.
this two datasets are linked with imageid field and binded to ReportClientDocument.
i have to show different image fields in every page of the report. this images are differ in width and heights.
i am able to show a single constant image field object from blob database field.
but i could not able to find the solution to show different set of multiple images in different pages of the report.
is there any formulas can be written or kindy give me a solution to achieve this.

How to create the Report Server tnsnames entry

Hi
I'm trying to integrate Oracle Forms with Oracle Reports and the document says that I have to know the tnsnames.ora entry for the report server. In other versions it was created automatically but in 11g there is no configuration. How do I configure this?
Regards,
Néstor Boscán

In 11g in the opmn.xml the environment variable TNS_ADMIN is set for the reports servers; in addition to the "normal" location under $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin you have to add a tnsnames.ora in $INSTANCE_HOME/config if memory serves (just take a look in the opmn.xml for the exact location)
