What is query and reporting

hai sap gurus..
what is difference the query and reporting
in an interview i have been asked.
how many queries and how many reporting did you created.

Hi Naren,
SAP Query
An ABAP Workbench tool that enables users without knowledge of the ABAP programming language to define and execute their own reports.
In ABAP Query, you enter texts and select fields and options to determine the structure of the reports. Fields are selected from functional areas and can be assigned a sequence by numbering.
ABAP Query offers the following types of reports:
Basic lists
Statistics
Ranked lists
Query used for short run based i.e the format of the report output you can change frequently.
Report (CA)
A compilation of data for a company or group of companies in the form of a table or list.
An evaluation is the result of executing a report. It can be either displayed on the screen or sent to a printer.
Here ABAP programing language will be used to execute the report.
Report used for long run it is standard output we can,t change frequently.
I hope it will clear for you,
Regards,
Murali.

GroupWise 2014: advanced querying and reporting

Hi,
GroupWise 2014 came with the announcement that incorporated new advanced querying and reporting capabilites, but I'm unable to find them.
Does anyone know if it incorporates something in this regard, and if so, where to find it?

In the 2014 admin console there is a global object search. In
addition, when managing users there is comprehensive searching
capability to find specific users based on many different attributes.
It's also possible to query GW directly using the REST interface and
bypass the admin console altogether.

Help with Query and report assignment

Hi,
I am able to attach 2 transactions (e.g. MM03 and ME23) to my SAP Query through report assignment. My question is how do I skip the selection screen that asks me if I want to Display Material or Display PO?
What i want to happen is in my report, if I click on the material - MM03 is called and if I click on the PO, ME23 is called.
Is this even possible through queries?
Cheers.

Thanks for replying.
I did as suggested and added the following at the start of my code.
AT LINE-SELECTION.
GET CURSOR FIELD FILD_NAME VALUE F_VALUE.
I set a breakpoint in AT LINE-SELECTION and when I executed my query, it wasn't passing through it.
When I removed the line AT LINE-SELECTION, it passes through GET CURSOR FIELD, but FILD_NAME is not populated. It's blank.
Below is my code at the moment:
data: fild_name(30), F_VALUE(50).
*AT LINE-SELECTION.
GET CURSOR FIELD FILD_NAME VALUE F_VALUE.
if fild_name = 'MAT'.
PARAMETERS P_MATNR LIKE MARA-MATNR. "DD ref. as in MM03
SET PARAMETER ID 'MAT' FIELD P_MATNR. "ID for MARA-MATNR
CALL TRANSACTION 'MM03' AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN.
endif.
Appreciate any help.

Oracle Hyperion Query and Reporting Runtime Setup

Experts,
We are in the process to implementing Hyperion application (IR & FR), and we are looking for a way to
setup some security governance on reports/queries that run for more than an hr. We were told that there
is no “out of box” solution from Hyperion apps, and we want to know anybody have a chance to implement
anything like this to manage run-off reports/queries in the past. We will be greatly appreciated if you can send
us any documentation or information that can be helpful.
Thanks in advance,

Did you pick this forum at random or do you think your inquiry, in some way, relates to SQL and PL/SQL? <g>

Autorization issue with SAP Query and RPTQTA10

Dear all,
I am having some difficulties with autorisations in SAP Query and Report RPTQTA10.
in IT2006 I have a subtype 03 which should not be accessible for a group of users.
Also I have created a test employee with a sybtype of IT2006 which is allowd and one which is not allowed.
When I run some reports with that user I get a nice result with PT50. Only the allowed subtypes are being displayed.
When I try to run A SAP Query or report PRTQTA10, the employee is not visible and seems to end op in an error list.
Can someone shed some light on this issue?
Kind regards,
Patrick

Hallo,
Follow like this...
Role 1:-
authorization level: R, W (You should not give W, R. You should give either W or M, R, Any way it will not create any problem)
Infotype: 2006 -Ok
Pers area: * -Ok
Emp group: * -Ok
Emp sub group: * -Ok
profile: ALL*, ZBHR_OS etc etc -Ok
Subtype: 01, 02 - Keep only sub type 01, 02
fuction group: * -Ok
Role 2:-
authorization level: R, W (You should not give W, R. You should give either W or M, R, Any way it will not create any problem)
Infotype: 2006 -Ok
Pers area: * -Ok
Emp group: * -Ok
Emp sub group: * -Ok
profile: ALL*, ZBHR_OS etc etc -Ok
Subtype: 03 - Keep only sub type 03
fuction group: * -Ok
Then user who want only sub type 01 & 02 then assign role 1 and he will not have access to sub type 03
User who want only sub type 03 access, then assign role 2 only so that he will not have access to sub type 01 & 01
User who want sub type 01, 02 & 03 access, gibe Role 1 & Role 2
Hope it clarifies.

Purnima

SQL Query (updateable report) Region - Conditionally Hide and Set Values

SQL Query (updateable report) Region - Conditionally Hide and Set Values
Outline of requirement :-
Master / Detail page with Detail updated on same page using SQL Query (updateable report).
The detail region has the following source
SELECT item_id,
       contract_id,
       CASE WHEN hardware_id IS NOT NULL THEN
               'HA'
            WHEN backup_dev_id IS NOT NULL THEN
               'BD'
            WHEN hardware_os_id IS NOT NULL THEN
               'HS'
       END item_type,
       hardware_id,
       backup_dev_id,
       hardware_os_id
FROM   "#OWNER#".support_items
WHERE contract_id = :P26_CONTRACT_IDThe table support_items implements arced relationships and has the following columns
CREATE TABLE SUPPORT_ITEMS
ITEM_ID         NUMBER                        NOT NULL,
CONTRACT_ID     NUMBER                        NOT NULL,
HARDWARE_ID     NUMBER,
BACKUP_DEV_ID   NUMBER,
HARDWARE_OS_ID NUMBER
)A check type constaint on support_items ensures that only one of the fk's is present.
      (    hardware_id    IS NOT NULL
       AND backup_dev_id IS NULL
       AND hardware_os_id IS NULL
OR    (    hardware_id    IS NULL
       AND backup_dev_id IS NOT NULL
       AND hardware_os_id IS NULL
OR    (    hardware_id    IS NULL
       AND backup_dev_id IS NULL
       AND hardware_os_id IS NOT NULL
      )    Hardware_Id is a FK to Hardware_Assets
Backup_dev_id is a FK to Backup_Devices
Hardware_os_id is a FK to Hardware_op_systems
The Tabular Form Element based on item_type column of SQL query is Displayed As Select List (based on LOV) referencing a named list of values which have the following properties
Display Value     Return Value
Hardware Asset    HA
Backup Device     BD
Computer System   HSThe Tabular Form Elements for the report attributes for hardware_id, backup_dev_id and hardware_os_id are all Displayed As Select List (Based on LOV).
What I want to do is only display the Select List for the FK depending on the value of the Select List on Item Type, e.g.
Item_Type is 'HA' then display Select List for hardware_id, do not display and set to NULL the Select Lists for backup_dev_id and hardware_os_id.
Item_Type is 'BB' then display Select List for backup_dev_id, do not display and set to NULL the Select Lists for hardware_id and hardware_os_id.
Item_Type is 'HS' then display Select List for hardware_os_id, do not display and set to NULL the Select Lists backup_dev_id and hardware_id.
There are properties on elements to conditionally display it but how do we reference the values of the SQL query Updateable region? they are not given a page item name?
Also on the Tabular For Elements there is an Edit tick against a report item - however when you go to the Column Attributes there is not a property with which you can control the Edit setting.
What's the best way of implementing this requirement in APEX 3.1?
Thanks.

Welcome to the forum: please read the FAQ and forum sticky threads (if you haven't done so already), and update your profile with a real handle instead of "user13515136".
When you have a problem you'll get a faster, more effective response by including as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should include:
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
<li>Theme
<li>Template(s)
<li>Region/item type(s) (making particular distinction as to whether a "report" is a standard report, an interactive report, or in fact an "updateable report" (i.e. a tabular form)
With APEX we're also fortunate to have a great resource in apex.oracle.com where we can reproduce and share problems. Reproducing things there is the best way to troubleshoot most issues, especially those relating to layout and visual formatting. If you expect a detailed answer then it's appropriate for you to take on a significant part of the effort by getting as far as possible with an example of the problem on apex.oracle.com before asking for assistance with specific issues, which we can then see at first hand.
I have a multi-row region that displays values and allows entries in a number of fields.Provide exact details of how this has been implemented. (An example on apex.oracle.com is always a good way to do this.)
I should like the fields to be conditional in that they do not permit entry, but still display, if certain conditions apply (e.g. older rows greyed out). Can this be done? Almost anything can be done, often in multiple ways. Which are appropriate may be dependent on a particular implementation, the skills available to implement it, and the effort you're willing to expend on it. Hence it's necessary to provide full details of what you've done so far...

Can HTML-based reports be built in BLS via an SQL Query and XSLT?

Hello xMII experts,
I have already built a report in xMII which uses XSLT to provide group/sum totals in a web browser. However in a new project, the report must run at certain times and possibly when certain signals become true in the process.
It appears that BLS is a good choice to achieve this and my proposed Transaction was:
1. SQL Query Action(uses the same QueryTemplate as in xMII)
2. XSLTransform Action on the resulting XML resultset (The .xsl file contains HTML which is the original used in xMII to produce the report there)
3. HTML Loader action with the resulting output of the transformation
I have now got some output in the resulting HTML file - however it omits all XSLT code - and I am left with an empty HTML shell but for a few images.
This indicates that perhaps no SQL data was ever returned.
I have therefore two questions:
1. How can I check if the SQL returned data?
2. Is it possible to deliver data to a HTML file directly after an XSLTransformation.
Looking forward to your responses
Best Regards
Robert Sales

Thank you for the replies.
I am a little closer the result I need - however I think I need to explain what I had and what I need a little better.
Before BLS
1 xMII report page (.irpt extension) with two iCalendar applets (start/end date) and a set of buttons (1 for each report)
Upon clicking on a button the two dates are passed into an .irpt file, and via a servlet an SQL QueryTemplate and a XSL DisplayTemplate are used to build the report.
The HTML is embedded in the XSL file - thereby generating the report direct in the web browser.
- This all works fine
With BLS
A transaction which uses a modified SQL QueryTemplate (no date parameters) passing the results to an XML file. This works.
Now when I click on the button in my xMII screen the .irpt file is called with no Date parameters and the xAcute QueryTemplate called with the XSL DisplayTemplate. The irpt file has <html> and <body> tags with XSL file in the Servlet call providing the tables and data extraction from the XML.
I have no additional HTML file so I placed the iframe tag inside the XSL file - but it refers to the .irpt file - this doesn't sound right!
I do get a little output in the web browser but it still omits all XSLT code.
One more point - The Transaction can be scheduled and run as required - but I need the entire report to created and stored for viewing at a later date. Will a servlet tag running inside an .irpt file achieve this?
Sorry for the chaotic writing here - but I must leave the office.

Robert Sales

Shared Components APEX Report Query and Layout

Does anyone know how to call the report query and layout from the Shared components section from a page within the application?

mtbdude40 wrote:
What I need is this: The ability to create a PDF report with a custom header defining the data (example - select * from emp where deptno = :deptno and the header includes the department name).
I use this white paper as my source: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/learnmore/custom-pdf-reports-1953918.pdf
You need to build and use a Shared Resource -> Report Queries.
The Report Query will have two queries associated with it (see below).
one query will be for the header information, the other will be for the data.
use the "download" of the "xml data" as your source for Altova/other tools.
If you add/remove/change queries, You'll have to redo your report (from scratch) as that changes the XML Schema required. (at least, with my experience)
Once you get the hang of it, 2x queries is easy (Header, data)
I've experimented with 3x queries (header, master,details) but have been unsuccessful. I have some ideas though ("link" master->detail info via XPath stuff within Altova) but haven't gotten around to testing it.
If you want to run the report for multiple departments....That might require some finesse.
Unfortunately, the Source of the Queries can't be a scalar SQL that returns 1 row of 1 column of data type XMLType....

What is difference between report programming and dialog programming?

hi,
what is difference between report programming and dialog programming? plz provide some example code
bye

ABAP programming
Basically reports are used to read database and represent the results in lists.
Reports are collections of processing blocks that the system calls depending on events.
We can use reports to evaluate data from database tables.
Reports are stand alone programs and controlled by events.
A report itself never creates events
steps in report:
Processing the selection screen
Reading the database
Evaluating the data and creating lists
Outputting a list.
1st u write simple logics, after that u can enhance the code as step by step.

Dialog Programming
Structure of a Dialog Program
A dialog program consists of the following basic components:
Screens (dynpros)
Each dialog in an SAP system is controlled by dynpros. A dynpro (DYnamic PROgram) consists of a screen and its flow logic and controls exactly one dialog step. The flow logic determines which processing takes place before displaying the screen (PBO-Process Before Output) and after receiving the entries the user made on the screen (PAI-Process After Input).
The screen layout fixed in the Screen Painter determines the positions of input/output fields, text fields, and graphical elements such as radio buttons and checkboxes. In addition, the Menu Painter allows to store menus, icons, pushbuttons, and function keys in one or more GUI statuses. Dynpros and GUI statuses refer to the ABAP/4 program that control the sequence of the dynpros and GUI statuses at runtime.
ABAP/4 module pool
Each dynpro refers to exactly one ABAP/4 dialog program. Such a dialog program is also called a module pool, since it consists of interactive modules. The flow logic of a dynpro contains calls of modules from the corresponding module pool. Interactive modules called at the PBO event are used to prepare the screen template in accordance to the context, for example by setting field contents or by suppressing fields from the display that are not needed. Interactive modules called at the PAI event are used to check the user input and to trigger appropriate dialog steps, such as the update task.
All dynpros to be called from within one transaction refer to a common module pool. The dynpros of a module pool are numbered. By default, the system stores for each dynpro the dynpro to be displayed next. This dynpro sequence or chain can be linear as well as cyclic. From within a dynpro chain, you can even call another dynpro chain and, after processing it, return to the original chain.

Creating a print button to call a Report Query and pass filters

If i use the REPORT QUERY option in APEX 4 to create an statement that is the same one used in an interactive report, can I create a link or button to the REPORT QUERY and pass all the session and filter information from the interactive report to the report query?
This way I can have the interactive report screen where the user can do all sorts of modifications and such and then pass those to the REPORT QUERY so I can call that from a custom link or button.
You may ask "why does he need another print button?"
Answer: I am using a view that has some embedded HTML tags to format the output really nicely. The HTML download version created by the interactive reports works beautifully. The customer also wants a PDF version (meh) which does not render the HTML tags and actually echos them as part of the text. I found that I can create another view that uses the CHR function to create all the breaks and such I was doing with HTML and these do render properly in PDF. So, I figured just have 2 reports: 1 Interactive and 1 using a REPORT QUERY. I just want to call the REPORT QUERY version but use the Interactive Search form to set all the parameters.
Or, am I over thinking this and there is an easier method?
I made a previous post where I showed how I got the APEX printing to work and i hoped that helped someone out - fixing this issue would put the whole thing to rest.
Thanks

Is BI Publisher desktop (MS Word add-in) a possibility? This would allow you to use MS Word to create your output template (RTF) that would result in a properly formatted PDF. Of course, you'd have to right an updated version of the query without HTML embedded. Just thinking outside of the box.

Query designer report and Web Templates

Dear All,
I have a very basic/stup doubt.
Are reports made through Bex Query Designer and Web Templates the same?
Actually there is a following requirement:-
"Navigate from a BW Web template to a PCUI application". I have a document related to it but it gives me step on how can i modify my web templates to achieve this functionality. But all my reports are made through query designer and it available to user through Web Dynpro portal.
So i just wanted to know is Web Template and Reports made through query designer the same? So that i can implement the changes in my report.
Thanks.

Hi Anup,
by using web templates we can use N number of data providers (Queries) for a single analysis view with various available options. - N number of Queries can be assigned to Web template to create a web report
but by using the Query designer ,you can create a single report which may not provide sufficient information to the client and the number of features are less compared to web template.
as you mentioned that you are using the web dynpro.
i think the web dynpro requires the web reports as an iview and ths iview can be created by using the Query designer and or web app designer.
so the most clear view can be given to client using the WAD reports

How to do Enhancements in Reporting & What is Role and How to create Roles

Reporting Enhancement - RSR00001 - BW: Enhancements for global variables in reporting
And using the SAP Exit - EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001
RSR00001- With this enhancement to global variables in reporting you have the option of determining your default values for variables. You can use this enhancement for variables, for which 'Processing by Customer-Exit' has been selected in the variable maintenance. This is valid for all variable types (characteristic value, node, hierarchy, formula and text variables). You use the Exit EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001 for this.
The Enhancement component (RSR00001) must be assigned to a Project Created using the Transaction CMOD. On activating the Project, the Exit would become active and in turn the logic written inside the Exit.
To ensure that the data warehousing soultion reflects your company's structure and business needs it is critical that you establish who is authorized to access the data.With SAP BW, Authorizations can be defined and maintained by object and can also be applied to hierarchies and these authorizations can be inserted into roles that are used to determine what type of content is available to specific users or user groups.
T-code for Role maintainence -PFCG.
Please assign points if it is useful.
