XL reporter expert question

I am trying to produce a stock item Quantity consumption report with XLR and I am choosing the Sales AR  and Sales Credit Memo type of transactions. The problem I find is in choosing a light dimention field that will give me the Item Stock Quantity per invoice line. I have tried the INV_Qty field but it did not give me the right result. Any ideas where am I going wrong?  I have also tried the SO_Quantity field and this did not work either.
Thank you for any tips?
Robert

Hi Julie
Thanks for that but unfortunately this did not solve the problem. I already had the Row Expantion set ( I just did not know that thats the name for it) In fact without Row Expantion and choosing a Dimention, I would not be able to select the Fields (Light Dimentions and Measures) in the cells for my report. You noticed tha Jim suggested that it may be a Grouping issue but, I have not Grouped anything (perhaps I need to Order and Group?). All my selections of Dimentions are at Row level and I wonder if I need to select something at Column level to show me transation lines for a period? At present I do not understand the reasons for setting anything in a Column?
It is obvious that I am missing something in my understanding but I am not sure what it is:
1. It may be that I am missing some understanding in which Dimention will work with which Light Dimention and Measure - however, I tried many simple combinations and I get the same NIL result in the report
2. I thought that I need to set a Repetitive area for transaction, but according to you, the Row Expantion should do that part
3. Perhaps I need some setting at Column level that I am missing
4. Perhaps there is a need to set something at Document Level
Probably is something else I am missing

  • Format change when report open in report expert

    Hi all,
    I am using report builder 6i and I create invoice report I have attached it with oracle ebs 11i and run it from
    concurrent manager. Now I have to open my invoice report into report expert software.
    when it opens into report experts, It change our report builder fonts and format both.
    suppose if item are 1 then invoice total depens upon number of items. so invoice total position is changed
    according to the number of items. If 1 items total move up and if more than 1 item total moves down.
    In this way my invoice format become changed and total did not maintain in same position.
    Thanks

    The Format is changed due to sizes of Repeating frames in the report layout as well as the fixed frames.
    you can use the border color of the frames to design the report layout.
    when your fixed frame is not in lined with the repeating frame objects and the anchor is not applied then the report output in PDF will not be disturbed
    while in the Excel format it will be as per the no. of fixed frames/objects in the first line will come in first A1 column of the Excel file ans next in the second and so on...

  • Report Painter question (FGI1) How to limit output up to a specified period

    Hello
    I have a report painter question.
    I am trying to create a BS report using tcode FGI1 (FALGFLEXT), that lists out the BS values by month (Jan - Dec).
    But the problem I am coming across is, if I specify selection parameter 01 2008, the report also populates the same values into the unposted months ahead (Feb/Mar/April)
    Something is wrong with my parameters.
    Is there a way I can limit the report output up to the specified period/month?
    I thought I might be able to work around this by creating a formula/variable (like in GL-SL), but it doesnt seem to be the case.
    Any thoughts appreciated
    regards
    Ken

    Period shall be included in the column characteristics. Check the variables or Values in column definition for the characteristic period.
    You could either give the values of period 1 for col 1, 2  for col 2, etc
    or you may use variables for period. The variables can be a formula variable with conditions.
    You make the user to enter a value for the 'To period'  (ZTOPRD)
    The value for the variable for column 2 (Feb) shall be  = 2, if ZTOPRD > or equal to  2  else, give some 17 .
    This way when the user enters a value of 1in the to period, the system would default 17, for which there won't be any values.
    You may extrapolate the above formula for various remaining columns of period.

  • Created Quiz in Captivate 4. How can I create a report on Question Level

    I have created a quiz in Captivate 4. I would like to create a report on question level. for e.g., I'd like to determine the no. of users that answered wrong on specific question consistently. This helps us to go back and tweak the quiz to make it more learning friendly.

    Hi there
    This is normally handled by virtue of installing a Learning Management System (LMS). You then upload the Captivate into the LMS and the LMS handles aggregating and keeping track of performance.
    Captivate does offer an E-Mail reporting function, but it's far from reliable and not remotely secure. Additionally you would be forced to hand tally and track responses if you are fortunate enough for it to actually SEND responses.

  • IPCC Ent 7.1 reporting/db question

    Experts,
    I have been asked for reports that show Longest wait time in queue
    The amount of time the queue is full
    I am not much of a programmer and know that I can use something like a global or peripheral variable to get this done, is there an easier way to get data like this? We don't have anyone that can customize reports so I am stuck with having to figure a way to do it with programming.

    With IPCC, the call type set just before the queue to skill group node (or nodes, because there could be complexities with overflow skills and queue to multiple skills) is the key metric to measure the customer experience - how long they wait before being answered. It is not easy to get an exact answer to the question, but you can get a "histogram" on the answer time of the call type by setting up the 10 Bucket Intervals to suit your purposes.
    The Reporting Guide then says:
    WebView Reports for Answered/Abandoned Within Separate Intervals
    WebView provides two call type interval reports that measure answered and abandoned calls for interval increments:
    caltyp31: Call Type Abandon/Answer Distribution by Half Hour (IPCC only) Report
    caltyp32: Call Type Abandon/Answer Before Interval Report
    These reports show calls that abandoned and were answered within the increments that you set: for example, 0-5 seconds, 5-10 seconds, and so on.
    WebView Reports for Answered/Abandoned Accumulated in Intervals
    WebView also provides two call type interval reports that provide cumulative data based on the intervals you configured:
    caltyp33: Call Type Abandon/Answer During Interval by Half Hour Report
    caltyp34: Call Type Abandon/Answer Before Interval by Half Hour Report
    These reports show cumulative data for calls that were abandoned and calls that were answered for the increments that you set: for example, less than 5 seconds (<00:05), less than 10 seconds (<00:10), less than 15 seconds (<00:15), and so on.
    If you were to query the Termination_Call_Detail table you could find out the exact time the longest call had to wait for that call type, but that's a different kettle of fish.

  • PL/SQL Ad-hoc Reporting Implementation Questions

    Recently, I have been put on a development team that is developing a small reporting module for one of our applications.
    I'm trying to mask the underlying structure from the application by having the application run PL/SQL procedures which return REF CURSORS to the client with the requested data. Right now I'm struggling with how to implement the PL/SQL in the best fashion.
    Since this is a reporting tool the user has many combinations of selections. For example at a high level this application has a combination of multiple dropdowns (4-6), radio buttons, and check boxes. As you can see this results in a high amount of possible combinations that have to be sent to the database.
    Basically, the user chooses the following:
    1. Columns to receive (ie different SELECT lists in the PL/SQL)
    2. Specific conditions (ie different WHERE clauses in the PL/SQL)
    3. Aggregate functions (SUMS, TOTALS, AVERAGES based on #1 and #2)
    4. Trends based on #3.
    So... with that said I see two possibilities:
    1. Create a static query for each combination of parameters (in this case that would most likely result in at least 300 queries that would have to be written, possibly 600+).
    The problem I see with this is that I will have to write a significant amount of queries. This is a lot of front end work that, while is tedious, could result in a better performing system because it would be a parse once, execute many scenario which is scalable.
    The downside though is that if any of the underlying structure changes I have to go through and change tens of queries.
    2. Use DBMS_SQL and dynamically generate the queries based on input conditions.
    This approach (possibly) sacrifices performance (parse once, execute once situation), but has increased maintainability because it is more likely that I'll have to make one change vice a number of changes in scenario 1.
    A downside to this is that, it may be harder to debug (and hence maintain) because the SQL is generated on the fly.
    My questions to all is:
    1. Which is the approach that would best manage maintainability / performance?
    2. Is there any other approaches to using PL/SQL as a reporting tool that I am not thinking of?
    The database is 10.2.0.3, and the 'application' is PHP 5.1 running on IIS 6.
    If you need me to provide any additional information please let me know.
    Thanks!

    Ref cursors are an ugly solution (different though in 11g).
    You build a dynamic SQL. It must/should have bind variables. But a ref cursor does not allow you to dynamically bind values to bind variables. You need to code the actual bind variables into the code as part of the open cursor command. And at coding time you have no idea how many bind variables there will be in that dynamic SQL for the ref cursor.
    The proper solution is DBMS_SQL as it allows exactly this. Also one of the reasons why APEX uses this for its report queries.
    The only sensible way to implement this type of thing in PL/SQL is by not trying to make it generic (as one could with DBMS_SQL). Instead use polymorphisms and have each procedure construct the appropriate ref cursor with bind variables.
    E.g.
    SQL> create or replace package query as
    2 procedure Emp( c in out sys_refcursor );
    3 procedure Emp( c in out sys_refcursor, nameLike varchar2 );
    4 procedure EMp( c in out sys_refcursor, deptID number );
    5 end;
    6 /
    Package created.
    SQL>
    SQL> create or replace package body query as
    2
    3 procedure Emp( c in out sys_refcursor ) is
    4 begin
    5 open c for select * from emp order by 1;
    6 end;
    7
    8 procedure Emp( c in out sys_refcursor, nameLike varchar2 ) is
    9 begin
    10 open c for select * from emp where ename like nameLike order by 1;
    11 end;
    12
    13 procedure EMp( c in out sys_refcursor, deptID number ) is
    14 begin
    15 open c for select * from emp where deptno = deptID order by sal;
    16 end;
    17 end;
    18 /

  • Report Builder Question: Printing PO's from E-Business Suite - POXPRPOL

    I'm hoping there's someone who has the time to help me: We are using Report Builder 9, Oracle 9i, and E-Business Suite 11.5.10.
    I am a new developer using Oracle, and need to make some changes to the seeded (default) POXPRPOL (Purchase Order Print - Landscape) report, using Report Builder.
    I have two problems:
    1. When I print PO Releases from E-Business Suite, and specify I want releases 1 through 2, I get those fine, but the first page is my "Purchase Agreement". The question is: Is there any way (programatically or otherwise) to say "When the "Release" fields are filled out, don't include the Purchase Agreement?
    2. Somehow, after making a few changes to the POXPRPOL report, my quantity has disappeared. Is there any suggestions on how this could happen? I look at the query where they are using "POL.QUANTITY_TO_PRINT" for the working and the non-working reports, and they look identical.
    I'm hoping DESPERATELY that someone can help me - I'm really in a bind...
    Thanks!
    Steve

    Srini,
    Thanks so much for your reply!!!
    1. Ok, but how do I hide a whole page? I noticed the conditional formatting, but I want to "not print" a whole page when this page is a "Purchase Agreement".
    2. I've checked the source - it's coming from POL.QUANTITY_TO_PRINT - POL is a view that is unpopulated. I assume it's populated at run-time. So now I am trying to track down where it's populated, but can't find that in report builder. The quantity is being taken into account, because I put a total at the bottom of the page, and that number matches price * pol.quantity_to_print. Very strange...
    Finally, here's another question, if you don't mind:
    3. When I print a purchase order that is set up as a blanket, as I mentioned before, I get my "Purchase Agreement" first, and then one (or more) pages per release. But the "Page Number" on each is "1" because each is a one-page PO. But my "total pages" is "3", so each page reads "Page 1 of 3". Any idea if there's a way around that?
    Thanks again! Hoping you have some more insight! :)
    Cheers!

  • Trial balance report - general question

    Hi,
    This is the first time that I am using the trial balance report (to compare it with a Discoverer report that was built for another purpose).
    If I am running a trial balance for the end of May, and an account has a payment due in June, then the account does not appear in the report.
    The user feels that it really should.
    Can someone explain to me the purpose of the trial balance, i.e. if the report is supposed to only show the balance of due invoices or of any invoice that is not fully paid?
    Thank you.
    Leah

    Hi John,
    First, let me explain that we have an aging report that was written and our user is comparing it with the trial balance report. This is how the whole thing began. There is too big a difference. Yesterday, our user suggested that we run the trial balance for May since there is too much activity happening now in June.
    I decided to run a trial balance for the first of February 2010 figuring that was plenty safe. One of the customers listed had 4 invoices in the report. One invoice that was missing, though, was an invoice from January 17, 2010 that was paid (GL date) March 28, 2010. (There are others like that). The question: should it have been listed or not? It was in the aging report which our user felt was correct.
    Being (I assume-maybe I am wrong) that the trial balance report was not written just for our company, I am assuming that it must be correct otherwise there would be complaints from all over. That is why I finally turned to the forum to try to get an understanding. If the trial balance is correct, then the user cannot compare the aging report with the trial balance. If it is not correct, then we must turn to Oracle.
    Is there some information that I should look for from the missing invoice that I gave as an example that would explain it not appearing in the report?
    Thank you.
    Leah
    I would just like to add that I just noticed that there is another invoice from January 17th that IS in the report. It is also paid on March 28th. The only difference between the two invoices that I see, is in the distributions. The one that is in the report has the amount split between ITEM and TAX while the one that is not in the report has the full amount as type ITEM. Both have Withholding Tax as 0.
    Sorry for these added comments. We had an electricity problem all day at work (I am at home right now) but someone suggested that the invoice that is missing might have had a creation date AFTER the first of February even though the invoice day was in January and that is why it does not appear. I will not be able to check it until I am at work tomorrow (which will be around 10:00GMT).
    Thanks.

  • Report Builder Question - OA AR Aging - and a general question

    I'm sure this is the wrong forum for this question, but I thought there might be someone here who might be using Oracle Applications and Report Builder who'd be kind enough to help me out.
    We've recently implemented Oracle Applications 11.5.10 and I have to use report builder to change the Accounts Receiveable Aging (7 bucket) to a 5 bucket report. I've already made some changes to the seeded "ARXAGMW.rdf" report, but I'm not a big Oracle Reports guy. I've stumbled through making some changes in various other reports. But this one is just plain nasty! :)
    I was thinking that I could simply add buckets 6 & 7 to bucket 5, then just hide or delete the 6 & 7 buckets. But I'm not sure where to even start. Any help with this would GUARANTEE a Christmas or other holiday card this year! :)
    I really want to keep this simple as possible, so any help would be very....helpful. :)
    Oh, my general question is: Are there any resouces/books for Oracle Reports (Report Builder)? I feel so lost trying to modify existing reports, let alone creating new ones.
    Thanks again!
    Steve

    Hi Steve,
    I am working on the 7-bucket aging report and i want to add a new field in data model.
    As the query is build dynamically, i have modified the function BUILD_CUSTOMER_SELECT to meet my requirements.

    i get the following error: ORA-01789: query block has incorrect number of result columns.
    The query is as shown below:

  • Apex 3.1. Interactive Report. Questions and Problems.

    Hello!
    First of all I'd like to say Interactive Report is a really really brilliant feature, it covers exactly that points which we were missing in previous releases of Apex. Only this single feature makes Apex 3.1 release most significant for us since may be HTML DB 1.6. So much much thanks!
    So I have some questions about Interactive Report (IR):
    1) About "Save Report" feature. It is possible there to save own version of report layout or overwright the default settings. There is also possibility to completelly disable this function. So the question is it possible to disable only the ability to overwright the default report but give the ability to save own reports. It would be reasonable since too smart or too dum users can break the default layout of report and break the work for other users which don't use this function at all. At the same time the possibility to save own reports
    is absolutelly perfect
    2) Search. I'm from Germany and we have some national non-english symbols. The IR can't perform seach correctly if we use words with such symbols. Example word "Bestätigt" is interpreted by IR as "Bestätigt". At the same time the words are correctly displayed in reports and in interface. We have correct NLS_LANG, we have imported the lang_de.sql , and our own self-made search on simple reports works ok. What's to do?
    3) Charts in IR. Is there some data volume limits for Chart in IR ? sometimes we get the message "Loading XML...100%" during chart rendering and then happens nothing. In log file of Apache there is no any error messages...
    Thanks in advance,
    Alex

    Hi Alex,
    Glad to hear you're putting interactive reports to use, we put in a lot of time trying to get them right (at least for their first release).
    1) The "Save As Default Report Settings" option is only available for Developers, so you can only see it if you already see the developer toolbar at the bottom of the page. Standard end-users can't see this, so they can't save over your default report settings.
    2) That's right, the character set of the DAD needs to be AL32UTF8.
    3) A maximum of 1000 chart points will be returned, but you should not get this error. Can you describe the columns you are charting and the chart settings?

  • BI Publisher report scheduler questions

    Question 1: Is there a way to cancel a scheduled report? I have users that scheduled reports in BI Publisher but these reports take too long to run that the users decide to cancel it. It seems that there is not an option to do this. I have admin rights, so I think that I should be able to do this but I don't see any option. If there is a way to do this can someone please explain how.
    Question 2: If a scheduled report is running while the BI Publisher application is re-started,  can the status of the report be changed from 'C' to 'F' in the xmlp_sched_ouput schema? During the development of an application that uses the scheduler from BI Publisher, we have re-started BI Publisher application serveral times while a scheduled report is running. When we query BI Publisher schema, we can see that the status of the report that was running before the application is re-started keeps showing 'C' (for current). How we can change this status? Is there any configuration that I need to change to for the change to be automatic?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Try like this. Make sure your BIP parameter name and Presentation variable name matches; i assume Region
    SELECT distinct REF_REGION_CODE
    FROM REGION
    WHERE REF_REGION_CODE BETWEEN '01' AND '10'
    and (LEAST(:Region) is null OR
    REF_REGION_CODE LIKE (CASE WHEN :Region='' THEN '%%' ELSE :Region END)
    or
    REF_REGION_CODE = substr(:Region,1,2) )
    SELECT distinct REF_REGION_CODE
    FROM REGION
    WHERE REF_REGION_CODE BETWEEN '01' AND '10'
    and (LEAST(:Region) is null OR
    REF_REGION_CODE LIKE (CASE WHEN :Region{}='' THEN '%%' ELSE :Region END)
    or
    REF_REGION_CODE = substr(:Region,1,2) )
    If this is not working try to tweak with single quotes for Region

  • SCCM 2012 R2 - Reporting Services question

    In testing SCCM 2012, I put it on a an existing remote SQL instance. This server also housed SCOM among other applications. I set up reporting services successfully and got reports working.
    A few months later I decided to setup and test reporting in SCOM for Audit Collection Services (ACS). I did not know at the time but SCOM takes over SSRS and makes it unusable for any other application. This broke my SCCM reporting. I finally reinstalled
    SSRS and got rid of the SCOM piece and all is back to normal.
    I am now planning for deployment in production. Our DB team wants to stick the DB for SCCM on a server that will house many other databases (eventually). 
    My question is: Does SCCM reporting play well with others? That is, if I set up SSRS on a SQL server with other applications - should I request that SCCM is the only application using that particular SSRS instance? Or should it be ok to reside on an SSRS
    instance that may eventually house other applications (NOT SCOM). 
    Thanks in advance!

    a couple hundred clients; base specs for the primary server; and it would be a VM
    With all that said, I think our DB team still wants us to use their remote SQL server (physical) so I will probably go with that as it is still supported and our environment will be relatively tiny compared to typical SCCM deployments. Of course, if there
    are known issues or advisories against having a remote SQL please let me know (and provide a link). 
    My main concern was using this remote SQL server and setting up SSRS and having other applications conflicting with it. As long as SCCM plays well with others - I am good to go. Thanks for the replies. 

  • Custom report layout question...can't find any answers anywhere

    I am trying to build a report in Portal, using the custom report layout. The report displays like so, before I do any customization:
    COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    where COLUMN1 is the same value, always per report; COLUMN2 and COLUMN3 vary.
    What I want is:
    COLUMN1
    COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    In the report layout editor, Body section, this is what I see:
    <TD ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN1.FIELD#></TD>
    <TD ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN2.FIELD#></TD>
    <TD ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN3.FIELD#></TD>
    so #COLUMN1.FIELD# must be some kind of array, but I am not finding any documentation anywhere on how to reference the individual values. All I need is the very first value of the COLUMN1 variable. Once I have that value, I can put it where I need it, but I can't get at that value, just the array.
    I have searched portal center, the app server documentation, html documentation. I have googled everything I could think of, but came up with nothing. I found a similar question on this forum, but no one responded with an answer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Helen,
    The best way for your case is to use a content folder and customize it whichever way you like.
    however, your question is about reports. the problem in reports is this that you have to use just one single query and the layout of the results of this query are displayed in a peculiar way.
    anyway. something similar but not exactly the same as what you wanted do is the following.
    use a query like the following: (with a union in between)
    SELECT COLUMN1,NULL , NULL ,NULL ,NULL
    FROM my_source_table
    WHERE myCriteria LIKE 'SoAndSo%'
    UNION
    SELECT NULL,COLUMN2 , COLUMN3, COLUMN4, COLUMN5
    FROM my_source_table
    WHERE myCriteria LIKE 'SoAndSo%'
    ---------- Now, have the following codes in the layout segments:
    <!--- header --->
    <table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" width="20%" align="center">
    <!--- body --->
    <tr align="center">
    <td><table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" width="30%" align="center">
    <tr align="center">
    <TH><#COLUMN1.FIELD#></TH>
    </tr>
    </table>
    </td>
    <TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN2.FIELD#></TD>
    <TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN3.FIELD#></TD>
    <TD class="report_cell" ALIGN="LEFT"><#COLUMN4.FIELD#></TD>

    this should produce a report with a table structure (you may see the whole if you give BORDER="1" in the main table tag). Within this table, the first column of the first row should be showing top-leftmost column value once (COLUMN1 value) and then the next rows would show last four column values as a table block on the right-bottom part.

  • Select expert question

    Hi,
      I just changed an existing report to have a filter on one of my groups.  I used the select expert and filtered using the "is not equal to" criteria.  Everything works as it should when I view the report in crystal, my filtered objects do not show up.  When I then open that same report in Cabinet vision (the program we use the reports inside) the filter does not work.  I know that this could be a problem with the cabinet program, but I figured I would check into there being anything I may have missed when using the select expert.
    Thanks for any ideas,
    Mike

    We use a .RIM file to get these reports working in cabinet vision, my problem was with the setup of this file.  More specifically I should have had the value for GSF_ForRecordSelection set to false, mine was -1.
