WAD report - How to navigate to first page?

Good day,
When i run my WAD report, have the pages navigation.
When i click to LAST page and then click button "Change variables", a get my report with new data by another key, but it display it's LAST page too!
How can i changed variables and get the report with NEW data starting with FIRST page.
I have found BI_COMMAND "NAVIGATE_ROW_PAGE_START", but there is unavailable in command constructor.
Regards and waiting for answer.
Thank you!

I think this would be possible by having custom CSS embedded in web template. E.g. see here:

using oledb for getting data from ms sql server 2005.
Now my one report called accounts ledger
when i execute the report query it takes 1.03 mins for 515000 records..no issue with it ,
when i execute the report from report desginer for 515000 records its taking 26 mins . It is generating all
32000 pages.
Now same report i run from my web based erp application it takes 30mins to execute 32000 pages now
this is too much time it is taking and now our client is fedup of ussss..

Hi Mithun,
Here are a few points related to performance issue. These might be helpful.
The performance of a report is related to:
External factors:
1. The amount of time the database server takes to process the SQL query.
( Crystal Reports send the SQL query to the database, the database process it, and returns the data set to Crystal Reports. )
2. Network traffics.
3. Local computer processor speed.
( When Crystal Reports receives the data set, it generates a temp file to further filter the data when necessary, as well as to group, sort, process formulas, ... )
4. The number of records returned
( If a SQL query returns a large number of records, it will take longer to format and display than if was returning a smaller data set.)
Report design:
1. Where is the Record Selection evaluated?
Ensure your Record Selection Formula can be translated in SQL, so the data can be filter down on the server, otherwise the filtering will be done in a temp file on the local machine which will be much slower.
They have many functions that cannot be translated in SQL because they may not have a standard SQL for it.
For example, control structure like IF THEN ELSE cannot be translated into SQL. It will always be evaluated
in Crystal Reports. But if you use an IF THEN ELSE on a parameter, it will convert the result of the condition to
SQL, but as soon as uses database fileds in the conditions it will not be translated in SQL.
2. How many subreports the report contains and in section section they are located.
Minimise the number of subreports used, or avoid using subreports if possible because
subreports are reports within a report, and if you have a subreport in a details section, and the report returns 100
records, the subreport will be evaluated 100 times, so it will query the database 100 times. It is often the biggest
factor why a report takes a long time to preview.
3. How many records will be returned to the report.
Large number of records will slow down the preview of the reports. Ensure you only returns the necessary data on the report, by creating a Record Selection Formula, or basing your report off a Stored Procedure, or a Command Object that only returns the desired data set.
4. Do you use the special field "Page N of M", or "TotalPageCount"
When the special field "Page N of M" or "TotalPageCount" is used on a report, it will have to generate each page
of the report before it displays the first page, therfore it will take more time to display the first page of the report.
If you want to improve the speed of a report, remove the special field "Page N of M" or "Total Page Count" or formula that uses the function "TotalPageCount". If those aren't use when you view a report it only format the page requested. It won't format the whole report.
5. Link tables on indexed fields whenever possible.
6. Remove unused tables, unused formulas, unused running totals from the report.
7. Suppress unnecessary sections.
8. For summaries, use conditional formulas instead of running totals when possible.
9. Whenever possible, limit records through selection, not suppression.
10. Use SQL expressions to convert fields to be used in record selection instead of using formula functions.
For example, if you need to concatenate 2 fields together, instead of doing it in a formula, you can create a SQL Expression Field. It will concatenate the fields on the database server, instead of doing in Crystal Reports.
SQL Expression Fields are added to the SELECT clause of the SQL Query send to the database.
11. Using one command as the datasource can be faster if you returns only the desired data set. It can be faster if the SQL query written only return the desired data.
12. Perform grouping on server
This is only relevant if you only need to return the summary to your report but not the details. It will be faster as less data will be returned to the reports.

I am trying to get a footnote repeated on each page of a report- it only appears on first page - how do I make it appear on each page please?

How do I get the same footnote to appear on each page of a report - it only shows on the first page?? I went in through View and Layout per instructions. Thanks.

Hard to tell w/out knowing exactly which application and version you are drafting this report in. Often the footer on the first page is distinct from the footers of the second page through end - quick fix: add the footer to the second page and you should then be able to format it to continue on through the end of the report.

Button to navigate to first page

Hi all,
I have created an application which creates job and other details. My manager wanted an option of creating another job on the last screen. He needed a button (Create another job) and on clicking it should navigate to the first page of the application.
Could anyone let me know how to achieve this functionality?
With regards,
SVR

Hi Raja,
For navigating back to first page, you can create an OUTBOUND plug to the last view from where u want to navigate and create an INBOUND plug to the first view.
Then create a link between these plugs.
In the action of the button on clicking of which u want to navigate write this code:
wdThis.wdFireplug<outbound plug name>;
For creation of plugs u can refer to the following tutorial(from page 14 onwards).

How to Navigate from Graph page to Customization page?

Hi All
If i need to navigate from Graphs page to customization page on clicking the graph, What are the steps to be followed?
Also in that customization page i need to make changes in the SQL statement for graph also the type of graph( Pie or Bar).... when i provide this changes it needs to be saved. And when i save it has to provide me the new graph according to the edited SQL Statement...
How to achieve this?
Can anyone pls pls help me out in resolving this issue???
Ganesh

If i need to navigate from Graphs page to customization page on clicking the graph, What are the steps to be followed? Destination URI
You can programmatically define a destination URI on a graph, that allows users to drill down to additional information. If the Destination URI property is defined on a graph, the URI specified is used as the drill-down URL. The Destination URI can be an absolute URL or a relative URL to an OA Framework page. The group and series values for each data point are appended to the specified destination URI, so that the resulting URL is specifically associated to a particular data point plotted in the graph. The group and series values can be obtained by the destination page using the parameters OAGgroup and OAGseries.
For the drill down feature to work, you must also set the Display Data Bubble Text property on the graph to True. Enabling this property generates an image map, which is required for the drill-down feature to work. When a user selects any data point in the graph, the specified URL is launched.
Thanks

How to delete the first page from a large number of documents

Hello all,
My company has migrated from Adobe Acrobat pro 8 to 11. In version 8 we had
used Document Processing to remove the first page from all pdf's within a
directory (5000+). This process took about an hour.
Now my research has led me to use Actions in version 11, however it appears
that the action require each document to be open and saved (one after another)
in Acrobat in order for the first page to be removed. This thrashing has made this process very
slow to the point where it's useable.
Is there any way to run actions from the command line
so time isn't wasted opening up each document in Acrobat?
Is there another way to quickly remove the first page
from a PDF in bulk?
I'm outside my expertise area here, so if you need any additional
information let me know.
Thanks in advance.

Indeed, batch processing in Acrobat XI is inferior in many ways to what it was previously.
To answer your questions:
1. No.
2. Yes, it can be done using a stand-alone app much more quickly and more efficiently, but it's somewhat more complicated to develop such an app than to set up an Action in Acrobat.

How to Navigate to Another page and Back

Hi,
Is there any way to navigate from page1 CO to page 2 (to run its CO) and then immediately return it back to Page 1
Something similiar to method redirectToCurrentPage(), except in my case I want it to execute the CO of the 2nd page and return to page1.
Basically, my page 2 CO populates some temp tables automatically when user logs in based on certain criteria. I want to know in Page 1 CO, if this table will be populated as I need to control some buttons rendering on page1.
I am avoiding having to write the same code (from page2 CO ) to check if any records will be populated and wondered if there was any method which let me navigate to 2nd page and back.
Thanks
Shanky

Hi,
In the PR method of 2nd controller, try using forwardImmidiately() to previous page.

PASSING DATA FROM FORM TO REPORT (how to on the same page?)

Hello everybody
yes, i know it is built in a two pages design where the first holds the form and the second the report, but I want it both on the same page so that one can see what he has on the report while adds his own row to the table. Well I could do creating a form and then editing the page and then add another region. Alright. But then i dont know how to relate them together so that the data pass from the form to the report.
Besides, the Form for filling the data needs to pass them to two separate tables, because one table contains the particulars of the location and the other the comments about each store. Easy to do that on PHP and mysql but here I am lost.
Second thing that is driving me nuts is that I created a table named location so as to street postcode for a store, and another one for evaluation so that customers or workers add a a row evaluating services etc.
Well, I am trying to create that form i first talked about that would hold all the fields and I am doing it out of a SQL query that picks the definitions from both tables. My XE is completely empty from any leftovers of other applications etc. I make the equijoin alright
select l.loc_id, l.company, l.postcode, l.street,l.town, e.eval_id, e.loc_id, e.locum_reg, e.date_booked, e.items, e.addicts, e.number_staff, e.attitude_staff, e.organisation, e.stock_filing, e.agency
from location l, evaluation e
where l.loc_id = e.loc_id
and i get this annoying error all the time
ORA-20001: Unable to create form on equijoin. ORA-20001: Error page=2 item="P2_LOC_ID" id="1324114494879878" ORA-20001: Error page=2 item="P2_LOC_ID" id="1324114494879878" has same name as existing application-level item. ORA-0000: normal, successful completion
well, if that form is made up of both tables, it will definitively have to have something in common with them! how is the item name suppose to have another name? it is made with the wizzard so supposedly the wizzard should know it but I have tried for two days 14 hours each day.
any indication as to how solve this would be priceless for me
thank you
Alvaro

Edited by: user12155340 on 14-Nov-2009 03:38

I'm just guessing, but it appears since you are selecting loc_id twice (once from each table) there are two items generated called P2_LOC_ID, and that's simply not possible (well - how would the application know which one you mean if there could be two with the same name?).
Maybe it's worth trying the following:
select l.loc_id as "L_LOC_ID", l.company, l.postcode, l.street,l.town, e.eval_id, e.loc_id as "E_LOC_ID", e.locum_reg, e.date_booked, e.items, e.addicts, e.number_staff, e.attitude_staff, e.organisation, e.stock_filing, e.agency
from location l, evaluation e
where l.loc_id = e.loc_id
Another option is creating a view on the two tables (of course you must use 2 different column aliases for the two loc_id columns in the view too, otherwise you will receive an ORA-00957: duplicate column name) and use the view for creating reports and forms - however, automatic row processing works just on one table, so you would have to create your own processes to perform the DML...
Edit: I just saw you already got this answered in the APEX forum.

How to navigate to a page with POST?

Hi,
I have an APEX page with a combobox (or radio buttons) where the user selects a value and by pressing the submit button the application is supposed to navigate to a new URL. The combobox (or radio button group) items are associated to Discoverer URLS and I would like the application to call one or an other URL based on the value selected by the user. The reason for wanting to use POST for this is that I would not like to expose the link, since it has a password parameter in it.
Tamas

Peter,
I know, but I have no other idea, how I could resolve this. DBA do not want to see hundreds of Discoverer user created in the database. I have to authenticate users via APEX (calling Microsoft Active Directory using the built in LDAP package) and then I have to navigate them to the appropriate Discoverer enabled Oracle user. This seemed to be the less painful solution.
These are simple end users, and reports are not that sensitive to justify more effort than described above.

This should be so:
A person goes to work to place A
At the end of the day, he or she goes into the web fills the form and clicks the botton. Then, he or she has added a row to the form. As simple as that. But bear in mind that that form is comprised of data about the address and the comments, which are completely different entities, and not all elements of each entity is to appear in the report. That is why they have to go to two tables on the background and then the report pick from each table what it wants to show publiclly.
What I am actually trying to do is passing the values from the form into the two separate tables Location and Evaluation. Then I have already placed a select query under the report and I have seen that it updates itself as I manually filled the two tables so this process works fine. What I need is, instead of filling the tables manually as I am doing, fill them through the completion of the textfields of the form. This is so because not all the fields have to be shown on the report, for example, the person reporting will remain anonimous and that is something I am able to do by simply not including him in the select query of the report.
I am like exploring now the edit page possibilities and indeed I have discovered that the button of the Form that says create is associated with a Insert request on the database. Also i have seen that the way this works is by something like this P3_POSTCODE, &P3_POSTCODE where P3 is the item and &P3 is the value that is in the textfield associated with that item name.

How to display the first page alone first and two pages (back and front) then ?

Hi
I use acrobat 9 (beginner).
I have a document which should be displayed "as a book", ie two pages on the screen at the same time, the back of the first sheet and the front of the second one.
The problem I have is to manage to display the cover sheet as a single page (alone) and then to have the dual page layout as described above.
How could I do that ?
Thanks for your help

How to navigate to different page with different user name

Hi,
I have created a DB application....
My application consist of 4 pages.......
But if the first user logs into an application means, he needs to see only 3rd page
If the second user logs into an application means, he needs to see only 4th page.......
(i.e) 3rd page couldnot been accessible by the second user........
and 4th page couldnot been accessible by the first user.......
How to achieve this, i think i need to set some validation in the login page.....if so how to do that.....
it is an urgency....help me friends....
Regards,
Harry...

Hi,
Thanks for your reply, so i need to create a post authentication for redirecting to different page as you said....
Since these are my two pages(in the application)
*) issues page.
*) analyst page.
Suppose if the User A login to the issues page(via. login page) he needs to see only the issues page
if the User B login to the analyst page(via. login page) he needs to see only the analyst page...
Since User A and B have access to the application.....
But A should login only to issues page in my application and he should not login to the analyst page...
and B should login only to analyst page in my application and he should not login to the issues page...
For that where i need to define the post authentication...whether in login page i need to define.....
if so, whether i need to define sql query for restricting the users to the particular page in the post authentication...

Harry...

Why does logon page navigate to first page in application

Hi all,
Using v 4.
Creating an application that has a modified page 101, adding in lost password option and a redirection to page 106 if this is the first time the user has logged in.
I can't find any code in page 101 that states it should go to page 1 before it processes the conditional navigation to page 106. Page 1 would be the normal navigation target if the condition for 106 returns FALSE.
Can anyone throw any ideas at me please as I'm getting frustrated that the app is not navigating as expected.
Thanks in advance.
Bryan
PS, Just a thought, but is the fact that page 1 is the HOME page got anything to do with it?

Jari,
As far as I understand it ....
As long as all of your non-public pages have the security setting "authentication" set to "Page requires authentication", it doesn't matter which page they put in the URL, they will be redirected automatically to page 101 (the logon page). This would include your "Change Password" page, based on the requirement that they should have already logged on with a supplied password.
This is the scenario in my application. If the user is a new user, then the password_reset flag against their account is set to 'Y'. The next time they login, this flag is checked and will redirect them to the "You need to change your password" page (page 106). The flag is then reset to 'N' by successful completion of page 106 which means that the next time they login, they will be sent to page 1 instead.
If I run the application in development mode and I pass page 106 as the target page in the URL, the application will automatically redirect me to page 101, seen by the "Edit page 101" button at the bottom, forcing me to authenticate. In page 101, the process "Login" has the code I've included above that tells the authentication routine where to send me once authentication has passed.
Hope this helps
Regards
Bryan
