URGENT: Flexible Link in report run as a portlet

I would like to add a button to a report run as a portlet that "reloads" the portlet and shows a different subset of rows. How do I accomplish this without coding the full URL to the page as a link, because I would like to integrate this portlet into different pages....

By setting the javascript window.location value to itself plus some values for the bind variables you could show different subsets. The report might have to include a call to wwpro_api_parameters.get_value

Link in Report does not work when run on Citrix

Hello,
we use Crystal Reports (v11) for creating Reports.
Data is based on our CRM system "SuperOffice".
We have several reports and what we did is to add a column that includes a link to SuperOffice.
For example - if I have a list of contacts as a report, then every line has a link to SuperOffice.
If I click this link, the contact in SuperOffice gets open.
This works on lokal pc installations.
But is doesn't work on a citrix server.
If I click the link - nothing happens.
Is that a known problem or does anyone have any ideas for that?
Are there any known problems with links in reports on citrix servers?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Tony

Hi Don,
thank you for fast response.
That is a good advice. We will check that.
The main question is, to which folders etc. does CR needs access?
To explain the situation better: To run the reports we use Crystal Reports Runtime (Version 11.1.1883).
Do you (or anyone else in these forum) know where we could get information about which kinds of access CR Runtime needs to handle with these links?
Regards,
Tony

Unused Objects Content Report runs forever

Dear Portal Gurus
we have a lot of content in our portal (thousands of objects created by us)
The main part is from uploading the ERP Roles into the portal.
Our guess is, that quite a bit is not used at all.
It seems that the two "Unused Objects" reports in the support platform are a good starting point for cleaning up.
When i run the Unused Objects - not assigned to Roles report on one server node, it takes forever (is running more than 24 hours)
Does anybody else have this problem too?
Is there a way to get a result anyway?
I ran the Broken Delta Links Detector before, which runs successfully - even though not very fast. So these reports run in general.
We have NW 7.0 SPS 14.
Thanks in advance for your help and best Regards
Martin

Hello Michael
Thank you for your reply.
Personalization is mainly disabled in our portal.
In general the deltalinks were used correctly i think.
Of course broken delatalinks should not exist, but they get created by deleting objects not by creating deltalinks.
I'll try it with a call.
Kind Regards
Martin

Your help would be appreciated.
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi
The problem i sthat the function in the custom folder evaluated by the Oracle fisrt and after that are evaluated the functions which sets the global variables from the parameters.
So if you open the workbook nothing selected but the global variables has set and the next time you got the result with the previos parameters.
If you change the parameters it wouldn't change the result set only if you refresh it again without changing the parameters.
This is not a good solution for using parameters in custom folders. As I know there is no good solution for this problem yet.

Pass parameter from page link to report

How can I pass 3 parameter values from a link on one page to a report or CrystalReportViewer. Report is a CR/VS 2005 web report in C# Parameter fields in the report are: CampaignID BeginDate EndDate So say link page URL looks like this: <a href="http://localhost/reports/campaign_report/default.aspx?CampaignID=61325&BeginDate=1/1/2006&EndDate=1/2/2006" target="_blank" title="http://localhost/reports/campaign_report/default.aspx?CampaignID=61325&BeginDate=1/1/2006&EndDate=1/2/2006">http://localhost/reports/campaign_report/default.aspx?CampaignID=61325&BeginDate=1/1/2006&EndDate=1/2/2006</a> and I want to pass these values to the report and bypass the Parameter Prompt Page.When i run this link the report viewer page says "missing parameters"Do I need to add something to the default.aspx.cs page? -- protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { Parameter.Field1 = (CampaignID); Parameter.Value1 = Request.QueryString("CampaignID"); ...?? } --
 Any help would be greatly appreciated? Thank you, Jason 

Â Hi Jason
Â You are correct.Â The Viewer object will not automatically look at the URL and try to assign the values.Â You need to grab these values from the URL and properly assign them to the parameter objects.

Question: using links in report to copy data into form for update

Hi there,
I have a report that selects data from one a table, and i want to populate a form to update the report info and more info that a user will enter into another table. With alot of help I have managed to get the first 3 column fields across by editing the report link, under report attributes -> column link. The values of Item 1 to Item 3 work fine, but how do i get the rest of the info in the other 5 columns across??
regards

I think you're trying to reinvent the htmldb wheel.
Have you tried looking at the wizards that help you do this?
Anyway, as an example, to populate the form using the pk
1: create your items on the page, including the PK
eg P2_EMPNO (PK), P2_ENAME, P2_SAL,P2_DEPTNO
2: create a page process "on load" that runs if the PK item is not null
begin
select ename,sal,deptno
into :P2_ENAME,P2_SAL,P2_DEPNTO
from emp
where empno = :P2_EMPNO
end;
3: You now need to write a process that does an update
after submit
begin
update emp
set ename = :P2_ENAME,
sal = P2_SAL,
deptno = :P2_DEPTNO
where empno = :P2_EMPNO;
end
You need to consider how to handle new rows, optimistic locking and a few other things.
I would suggest that you have a look at the existing form wizard that does all this for you. We can then work around any "limitations" you find.

Converted 10g Release 1 Report to BIP: Report Runs, but NO DATA

Hi,
I went through all the steps and converted a very simple report (to show department code and name) to BIP using the following link
[Converting Reports from Oracle Reports to Oracle BI Publisher in Release 10.1.3.3|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10415_01/doc/bi.1013/e10416/convertrpts.htm]
The name of the report is Dept_Rpt.rdf.
It has simple query: SELECT department_code, dep_name FROM dept ORDER BY department_code
I created the Dept_Rpt.xml.
Then I converted to BIP using the java BIP Converter: The 6 files were created successfully.
I create the package Dept_Rpt in the schema.
Then I copy the files to the BI Publisher XMLP\Users\~administrator directory.
Now I start BIP Server, and login as administrator.
Go to Admin option and Refresh Metadata
Now under my reports folder I can see the report
Image: !http://img34.imageshack.us/img34/6696/rptinbips.gif!
I have created a JDBC data source to the schema and it works fine (i.e. test connection succeeds)
Image: !http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/1218/datasource.gif!
Now when I press the View option I get this error:
Image: !http://img183.imageshack.us/img183/3641/errorwhenpressview.gif!
Now I press the Edit option. Under "Report Properties' the Default Data Source is set to Oracle BI EE. I change it to my one: *orabi@BIP*. I do a Save.
Now I go to the main-query in the Data Model. I see this. The Type is Data Template and the query is in XML.
Image: !http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/1800/queryinxml.gif!
Why is the query in XML and the Type set to Data Template. Why isn't it showing the query as seen in Oracle Reports?
Now I log into BIP Desktop from MS Windows, selects the Dept_Rpt.rtf and press "Open Layout Template".
Image: !http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/6812/bipdesktoperror.gif!
I get this error: Error occurred. Please check the settings and try again.
I now do this: In the Data Model I change the type to SQL Query and Data Source to my one.
Then the SQL query (with XML disappears). I then copy and paste the query manually and it looks like this:
Image: !http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/2595/querydatamodelchanged.gif!
Now I press View and it runs but the output is this: NO DATA.
Image: !http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/3985/nodata.gif!
Why is this?
Image: !http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/8709/bipworkingnow.gif!
Note that now if I log-in to BIP Desktop from Word and select the RTF it shows the RTF correctly. But here again if we run (preview) we get no data.

Hi Tim,
My dataSourceRef in the Dept_Rpt.xdo file points to my data source (see below pls).
!http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/9778/datasourceref2.gif!
Also in the BI Publisher desktop when you open the template in Word I cannot find a place to specifiy a data source and also in the BIP Server you cannot edit the template.
Also, you did not explain why the SQL query appears in XML in the DATA MODEL????
!http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/1800/queryinxml.gif!
I would really appreciate your help since I have to give a demo tomorrow to our mgt on the conversion process.

Oracle 10g Reports running slow

On one server we have an issue with some reports of 2pages taking 2 minutes or more to run, but on another server with the same data transferred across the same report runs in about 3-5 seconds.
The reports we are having issues with contain graphs.
The server spec is better on the slower running report server than the other report server.
How can I fix this?

Hi,
did you any exceptions you in the logs of report server??
Location:
$ORACLE_HOME/reports/logs/ <report_server> / .
Remove a trace,when your executing the graphical report.
It would help you to finding why the report is taking so much time
please follow the below link for tracing the reports in OAS 10g

Reports runs faster throuth Discoverer Server than through Application

I try to run a report directly from the discoverer server. The report executed fine and in few seconds i get the results.
When i try to call the same report from the BI Application through a link the report needs a lot more time to be executed. I am waitting about 10 minutes and still don't get any results.
I am using the Discoverer 4i.
Can anybody knows why this happens?

Discoverer is available and ships as a component of Oracle Application Server. Oracle Application Server via Oracle HTTP Server provides a proxy capability to support other web servers such as Netscape iPlanet and Microsoft IIS. The proxy capability will enable client applications to directly route requests to their native web server and these then get routed to Oracle Application Server and the Oracle HTTP Server. For detailed information on support for these web servers please refer to Oracle Application Server documentation.

Link in report with SSP enabled

Hey everyone, I have a question here involving programatically generated links in reports from the sql query behind them. How do I make a link to the page (from the report's sql query) that will allow me to change the value of a hidden and protected item (P16_PERSON_CONTACT_ID) without having APEX Session State Protection get angry at me and still protect me from having the user muck with the URL?

David,
Well bind variables are more performant and safer to use in queries. It shouldn't really be a debate on when to use them, you always use them when you can. Here's a quick break down (not a complete list, and should probably be expanded, but should get you going)...
Use bind variable syntax when you're referencing an item:
1. In a report query
2. In PL/SQL code that is stored in the application (as a page level process for example)
Use substitution variable syntax when you're referencing an item:
1. Outside of SQL and PL/SQL but still need the value - this is not always an option (in the HTML Header region of a page or title of a region for example)
Use V and NV functions when you're referencing an item:
1. In PL/SQL code stored outside the application (in a package for example)

Dan

"edit" link from report to form does not show values

I created a report and an attached form on two different pages. The report is a query combining two tables with outer joins. When I click on the "edit" button on the report, I get forwarded to the form page.
My problem: When I get forwarded to the forms page, I get an empty form, and not the data from the column as expected. The "edit" button behaves more like the "create" button. Anybody an idea what I could change to be able to edit the column data?
Thank you.

I've met the similar problem with previous releases (1.5.0 and 1.5.1) without any objective reason.
As I suggests, sometimes HTMLDB lost current session state. When this occurs, ALL links from reports to it's forms does not transit primary keys. I've just completed application development and I've met this behaviour every months.
As a workaround I found folowwjing process:
Come into administration tab, selet "Report with option to purge current session state". When I purge current session state and re-login to application, all report-form links will start to work.
I don't know, what is the issue, but I met it so soon on my local HTMLDB environment.

Report runs in Report Builder but hangs in Report Server

Hi,
I am using Oracle Reports 10g to build a report with many formula columns. Everything was working perfectly till I added some condition in a query in formula columns. After adding it, report is not working in Report Server but runs only in Report Builder. If I removed this condition, report runs OK but I need it. This condition is very simple, just filtering be a decoded column (i.e. stts = 'D')
Can anyone suggest how to solve this problem?

Hi,
what is the application server version you are running your reports on?
If it is 10.1.2.0.2 to 10.1.2.2 and you are using PDF SUBSETTING (check the [PDF:Subset] section in the uifont.ali file in your server) then you are most probably facing Bug:5029259 . To resolve the issue read further Doc ID 363868.1 in Oracle Support. In short, your options are:
1. apply patchset 10.1.2.3 or maybe patch 5029259 is enough.
2. or make sure no NULL values are returned in the report. Use nvl where possible. If there was no problem before making the changes then maybe checking the new formula columns would be enough. I made this change myself when facing this issue and it appears that this resolved the problem.
3. or change REPORTS_ENHANCED_SUBSET to NO in windows registry if under windows or $ORACLE_HOME/bin/reports.sh if under linux. REPORTS_ENHANCED_SUBSET=YES is necessary if you are using TTF subsetting, though. So this might not be an option.

Error when OO ALV report run in background

Hello all,
We recently applied stack 12 for a 7.0 system. My custom ALV report using CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER coding now returns an error when run in Background. It works fine in dialog.
The error occurred in program CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER=======CP. The log message was "Control Framework: Fatal error - GUI cannot be reached".
Is there a solution for OO ALV reports run in the background? I would not like to re-write my ALV reports using the function call. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!!

Yes, you need to code it a little differently, but you can still use CL_GUI_ALV_GRID. Here is an example.
REPORT ZRICH_0006 .
DATA: ITAB TYPE TABLE OF MARA.
DATA: R_GRID TYPE REF TO CL_GUI_ALV_GRID.

CALL SCREEN 100.
*& Module STATUS_0100 OUTPUT

SET PF-STATUS '0100'.
SET TITLEBAR '0100'.
IF R_CONTROL IS INITIAL.

      CREATE OBJECT R_CONTROL EXPORTING CONTAINER_NAME = 'CONTAINER_1'.
      CREATE OBJECT R_GRID EXPORTING I_PARENT = R_CONTROL.
    ELSE.

      CREATE OBJECT R_GRID EXPORTING I_PARENT = G_DOCK.
    ENDIF.
    CALL METHOD R_GRID->SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY
    EXPORTING
    I_STRUCTURE_NAME = 'MARA'
    CHANGING
    IT_OUTTAB = ITAB.
ENDIF.
ENDMODULE. " STATUS_0100 OUTPUT

Crash report runs a long time after startup

Crash report runs for about 1-1/2 hour after startup.

did you check how much time the entire report takes to execute (evn though the first 25 rows comes up quickly). I suspect it is > 30 mins.
OBIEE is not meant as a data dump tool and there is little that could be done. (except better hardware)

How can i see Log information of Report Run Time?

Hi Gurus,
How can i see Log information of Report Run Time?, till now i am counted report run time manually. Is there any way i can see the workbook running time in log information?.
Thanks & Regards
Vikram

There could be a few things -
At one time, you needed to run a separate script to create the tables. I'm not sure that is still the case. If you check the Administrators guide, look into the chapter that deals with the EUL Status Workbooks.
If you are not logged on as the eul owner, you may not have select privileges, or you may need to qualify the table with the schema (if there is no synonym) - select * from <eul_owner>.EUL5_QPP_STATS;
If you are on 4i, the table is EUL4_QPP_STATS
