Truncate row output on report

I have a report which outputs 14 columns so the width on the columns is limited. In the report I allow csv output. However, the output on some of the columns can contain more than 1000 characters. The landscape quickly becomes crowded.
So I used substr(details, 0, 250) for those 2 columns in my query but when I export it also truncates the output on the csv file.
Is there a way supported by APEX that will allow me to truncate the number of characters displayed per column on the report but include all information when exported to a csv file?

One way could be to write your own export program, there is a thread on the forum that tells you exactly how do write your own export to CSV functionality. Sorry for not remembering the exact thread URL
Cheers,
Andy

The reason is in the first line of the error. It doesn't have anything to do with the size of your XML file - it has to do with the contents of the "MsgLev1" column. You (or the XSD) has indicated that the values in this column not exceed a certain size - but one of the values in the file that's failing is larger than that.
In order to fix the problem, you're going to need to increase the allocated space for that column. In order to do that, you're going to need to find out what the required size of that data is - either from someone who ought to know, or by direct examination of the file. If you want to know which entity has this overly large data element in it, you need to configure the error handling of the XML Source to "redirect truncation errors". Then you can hook up the XML Source's error output to another destination where you can see which rows are problematic.

Delete hash value row in Bex report output

Hi All,
Can anybody suggest how can i remove hash value(not assigned) row in Bex report out put.
my report looks like this:
rows
project position
(hierarchy)
WBS element
(hierarchy)
Order
For each Project position and WBS element hierarchies, i did supress the " not assigned" tick in hiearchy attributes in RSH1.
but in colums i have budget as one of the column.
this budget comes from project position nodes to last node of WBS element but not in order, for order it will be blank but after this order a new row coming up with bold" Not assigned" with that budget amount against this not assigned.
My problem is how can i get rid of this not assinged entire row. I search so many links in SDN, they talk about just to replace the not assigned to some other value as blank or something like that.
Please suggest me how can i get rid of this.
i did tried to restrict Order with "#" but then the whole budget column getting blank.
Regards
Robyn.

HI Arun,
As i mentioned earlier, i have gone through these links, they just talk about replacing # value or Not Assigned to some other value or blank.
my issue is i need to get rid of that entire row.
when i drop proj def hierarchy ,then wbs hierachy starts, sometimes at the end of wbs hierarchy i get row with #
and sometimes after wbs hierarchy ,then order row then # row is coming.
even after i tick supress unassigned nodes in both Projdef and wbs hierarchies.
i am not supposed to simply replace #( not assigned) symbol or text with some other symbol or text ( thats what they discussing in these links).
i created that macro they said in those links but its just deleting # symbol to blank not the whole row.
hope i made my issue clear.
i have seen so many other links as well
[Re: Bex macros]

Robyn.

Deleting rows in alv report.

Hi Experts,
I want to delete a row in alv report output, It is duplicating records in the report and 'GRAND TOTAL' also be displayed . In under the report . <<removed_by_moderator>>
Thanks,
Dinesh.B
Edited by: Vijay Babu Dudla on May 11, 2009 9:15 AM

Hi,
use the following code for deleting duplicate and adjacent records from itab
delete ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM itab.
or
sort itab by pernr.
delete ADJACENT DUPLICATE FROM itab COMPARING pernr.
Also, for grand total you can use fieldcat-do_sum = 'X' with the field catalog. It will give you total for the required column.
Hope this solves your problem.

1 User Prompt for 2 rows in Financial Reporting ?

Hello,
for 2 years, I am struggling with following-
we have very detailled (detailled in 2 or 3 dimensions - let's say here: CBU and CostCenter ) reports, which run very long
in order to give user the overview/total as well, we want to give the total over all 2 or 3 dimensions only
the user should be allowed to choose 1 or more values (CBUs) via user prompt
current workaround is to have 2 user prompts (1 for detailled combinations) and (1 for total) and asking the user to fill the CBU 2 times
if user is not chosing same CBU(s), then report is inconsistant:
as many people have to use dozens of values and because there is no select all/ deselect all function - the handling is very annoying for the users.
Sample Report Definition
...........................................Dimension 1...........................................Dimension 2
Row 1 (of report definition): Descendants of Prompt for CBUs..............Descendants of Costcenter
Row 2 (of report definition): Prompt for CBUs....................................Costcenter Total
by this, we get a sample output like this: (Projects are the level 0 members of CBUs in CBU dimension)
...........................................Project A from CBU I.....................CostCenter X...............50
...........................................Project A from CBU I.....................CostCenter Y...............20
...........................................Project B from CBU II....................CostCenter X...............10
...........................................Project C from CBU III...................CostCenter Z...............100
...........................................Project D from CBU III...................CostCenter X...............200
...........................................CBU I..........................................CostCenter Total..........70
...........................................CBU II.........................................CostCenter Total..........10
...........................................CBU III........................................CostCenter Total..........300
Problem is:
I would like to define for
Row 2 Prompt for CBUs
and for
Row 1 Descendants of Same as Row 2
but then I get the error "5200 : Error executing query: +Server+/+Application+/+Database+/+User+/Error(1001005) Unknown Member [Same As Row 2] in Report
any idea how to workaround with that ? (have same problem with *Children of Same as Row 2*
I tried to combine *Same as Row 2* with *RelativeMember & Offset -1* definition in reporting is then: Relative to Same As Row 2 offset by -1
- but no success - all I achieve is a true Same as - resulting in duplication of all data of Row 2 and nothing from row 1.
Any other ideas, how to combine a same as function with functions like parent,children,descendants or relative member ? Did I do anything wrong in combining them or is the relativemember function not working in 9.3.1 ?
Please note, that these detailled reports typicially run 10 to 20 minutes - so telling users to run 2 reports or including lot's of not needed data or first retrieving and then hiding again is not really helpful - I would also not ask, if this function was not used in dozens of reports.
The user prompt function in financial reporting is the most used functionality in our reports- the users run approx. 100 reports a day - and fill between 3 and 10 user prompts (with a lot of default values & substitution variables) - this appeared the most efficient way for unexperienced users, who need different data every day.
unfortunately, it does not allow the report designer to allow either 1 or many values
it seems to struggle with our special request of "children of same as"
and it has no "select all" / "unselect all" button - which would allow the user to select all/none of the Choices List, defined in the user prompt.
Please do not recommend usage of Analyzer - this tool is far to slow, has no cancel button and the users simply go lost.
Smartview is too risky for majority of our users, as they would use the refresh button only - and not zoom in & zoom out - and miss a lot of new combinations by using old smartview-excel-templates (from previous month/forecast)
Any help on any of these items would be highly recommended.

If I understand correctly you would only have one CBU on any given report.
Instead of prompting for Row 2 and pulling the totals from the Outline. You could delete your current Row2 and have the report provide the totals based on the data results from ROW 1. Insert a row formula for Row 2 and sum the results for that paticular column.
Formula:
Sum([1])

Comma separated output using report builder

Hi Experts,
I am working with EBS 11.5.10, database 9i, and report builder 6i. I have a XML Publisher report, with output type EXCEL, which is working fine. But if i get huge data like 1million, 2million, it's not able accommodate the output in EXCEL. Since it's EXCEL 2003, it can't handle data more than it's capacity(i think 60,000 rows).
So we thought, if we can generate the output in CSV file with comma separte, then we can open the file in EXCEL 2007. Could somebody help me how to generate the CSV output using report builder 6i.
or is there any work around to our problem, kindly help me, it's urgent.

Hi,
Not sure if report builder can be made to generate csv output.
But you can create a PLSQL Report. Just use the query of Report Builder and write a Plsql procedure based on this query

Generating delimited output from Reports Runtime R60

When generating a delimited file using Runtime how can you predict or determine how Oracle will form the output rows from the report layout? Does anyone have any documentation on Runtime that explains the generation process as there is nothing in the Runtime Reference manual.

The only documentation (such that it is) that I've found on this is in MetaLink, in Note 68245.1 "Delimited Output in Reports" and a tiny bit more in Note 120072.1 "Suppressing header on delimited output".

CPU usage while generating text output from reports

hi
while we attempt to generate the text (delimited) output from reports and when the query fetches more than 1500 rows, the cpu usage stays around 100% for long time paralysing the operation...
we faced the problem when we attempted to generate text output for around 10000 records.
any suggestions?
ravi kumar chandran

You can burst with eText and I have done it
successfully.
I don't believe pagebreaks are an option in eText and
I don't think it makes sense either since your
generating a flat-file and not a customer or internal
facing document. Does that make sense?
Also, if you would like you can use the
BIPublisherIDE, this code can be converted pretty
easily to handle jcp. There is a an oa framework
version I have developed but I haven't posted on my
blog yet. I plan on adding a bolt on for java
concurrent programs soon. it's really pretty simple
just haven't had the time.

Thanks Ike for your reply.
I agree with your points on TXT files, but in our case,the reports are generated in TXT format for the customer so we are looking for the above mentioned features.
I have gone through BIP IDE and its a wonderful small utility which eases the task of BIP development.
As I mentioned in my original post that we are currently processing the generated TXT report using a custom util. in JAVA to get the desired output in TXT again.
I assume thats not what a JCP would do,so I am looking to explore that too.
As I understand the process for report generation is
1. Generate XSL from eTEXT template.
2. Get the XML data from DB using XDO
3. Apply XSL on XML to get the required template.
If we are looking to achieve some customizations then we need to have the XSL generated with those customizations.
In this case, where do we plug in the JCP to alter XSL or am I missing something.

The empty line is sorted as the smallest value and incase of DESCENDING it will be the first line (because of the mult by -1).
We could have overide it and incase of the empty row(usualy the last row) do not mult by -1 in DESCENDING mode.
But the problem is that the "+*compare*+" method and it's caller "*+Row+*" inner class are private :-(
It is not wise to do it but we can do like kmp83 wrote:

How do I apply filters or limit the rows on my report using a Date field in SQL report builder 3.0?

I have a status of completed and a date field in the dataset. The date field is either empty or contains a date. All 2015 dates are holding dates.
So how can I limit the report to only pull completed status with an empty date or a holding date?
I have not been able to set an OR option on a date field filter and if I add two filters on the date column one for empty one for > 12/31/2014 then it treats it as an "and" and pulls nothing from the list I have in sharepoint.
any help will be appreciated.

Hi MB,
In Reporting Services, the relationship of filters is “And”, and there is no option to change the relationship from “And” to “Or”. While we can use “or” operator within the expression to create one filter to integrated all filters to work around this
issue.
We can add a filter as follows in the dataset to limit the rows in your report:
Expression: =Fields!date.Value is nothing or Fields!date.Value>"12/31/2014" Type: Boolean
Operator: =
Value: true
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.

Hi,
I am fairly new to JSF so please bear with me if the answer is obvious :D. I'm using a dataTable component to display data from a database and would like to add a commandLink component to every row in the table that deletes that row from the database. What is the most effective way of doing this?
I'm thinking of using a ListDataModel with some function that removes the correct row (though I'm not sure how it will tie in with a commandLink and exactly where the database will be updated). I'll appreciate any pointers or perhaps even an online example of something similar.
Alternatively I suppose you could pass an "id" parameter on with the commandLink that somehow gets read in the request and the appropriate row is removed accordingly. This solution seems cumbersome however.Yes, your instincts are correct there. Binding the data model to a backing bean to get the UIData instance for the table. Then use UIData.getRowData() to get the object corresponding to the row containing the link/button. Then execute your business logic to delete the row from the database. Then you need to ensure the data model is updated to reflect the new state of the database.
