How to open a form from Oracle XML Report .xls Output?

Hi All,
We have a requirement wherein we have one complex SQL query, requirement is to fetch the data from that query and show it to the user. So far, so good. We can either create a report thru' UTL file to show the output to the user or can create a XML report whose output can be in the excel format.
Now user wants to have a hyperlink i.e. when he clicks the BSA (Blanket Sales Agreement) from the report output, it should be able to route him to BSA screen (oracle form), so that he can directly correct the issue with that corresponding BSA on which he clicked.
i.e. requirement is to create a a hyperlink from report output which will route the user to that oracle form with the BSA queried.
Not sure how can we implement this. If anybody has come across this type of requirement, please share your ideas and the approach used so as to accomplish this. Any inputs on this will be highly appreciated.
Cheers!

Hello Sumir,
we create reports in an XML format using http://matzberger.de/oracle/spreadsheet-en.html.
Within these files you can create hyperlinks to a forms application like
http://<applicationserver>/forms/frmservlet?config=xy&p_autoinit_module=ab&p_autoinit_arg=123
With these parameters we call a default forms module (welcome screen) and then start module ab and execute a query for 123. The user then can directly access the data he needs.

Barcode printing in XML report PDF output

Hi All,
I want to print barcode of invoice number / purchase order number in the XML report PDF output.
Anyone please suggest me with your ideas and experience.

Hi Bogdan,
The steps mentioned in the doc is what i did in order.
I couldn't understand the step # 13 & 14.
Log in as XML Publisher Administrator
Navigate to Administration --> Font Files --> Create Font File
Available fields are Font Name and File
--> for Font Name, choose any descriptive name
--> file will browse your PC to locate the font file
Navigate to Font Mappings -->Create Font Mapping Set
Mapping name is the name you will give to a set of fonts.
Mapping code is the internal name you will give to this set
Type: 'PDF Form' for PDF templates. 'FO to PDF' for all other template types.
Create Font Mapping (this allows you to add fonts to a set)
Font Family is the exact same name you see in MS Word under Font. If you don't use the same name the font will not be picked up at runtime.
Style and weight must also match how you use the font in the RTF or PDF layout template. Normal and Normal are good defaults.
Language and Territory should remain blank (NULL) unless you have a strong business reason, as these fields can cause the font not to be picked up at runtime.
Navigate to Configuration General -> FO Processing -->Font Mapping Set. This can also be done at Data Definition and Template level, via the corresponding Edit Configuration button on those pages. The hierarchy is Site-> Data Def -> Template.
Select your new mapping set.
Make sure the font is not referenced under File --> Properties --> Custom in the RTF template file.
Under General, set a Temporary Directory. The font will be stored under a /fonts directory at runtime, initially created the first time the font is used.
Upload a template that uses your special font and test using preview or by submitting a concurrent request.

XML Report Excel Output exponential value issue

Hello All,
While working on XML Report we need to show output in excel format. One of the out put value is “00110E001”. but when displaying in excel is shows "1.00E+0" and default behavior of MS Excel is if the any number data contains “E” then excel will convert those records in exponential format. But our client required those data which are present in database i.e. “00110E001”.
Kindly share your valuable inputs.
Thanks in advance
Thanks,

Hi Uday,
You are making number as a string, by adding a character :) , so it will be displayed as string with space and not as number.

XML REPORT 'S OUTPUT DOESN'T OPEN DIRECTLY IN EXCEL

Hi ,
I have two question
1)
For one of our XML publisher report whose output needs to be displayed in EXCEL format, While submitting this concurrent program we change the "Format" field from PDF to EXCEL as PDF defaults always.
Can we default format to EXCEL only ?
2)
Once the program is completed, upon clicking on the "View Output" button it display the output file. When selecitng Tool -> Copy option it opens in browser automatically.
Can we display the output in EXCEL , similar to a report whose output is PDF and the "Format" is "PDF"
Thanks and Regards
RajeKuma

Hi Rajekuma
For the 1st question ,i agree with yerroju.
For the 2nd one , Please do the following
1) Set profile option values to 'Browser' for 'Viewer: Application for Text' and 'Viewer: Text' either at site-level or underlined user level.
2) Add following entry to the "Viewer Options" ( Sysadmin --> Install -> Viewer Options)
File_Format Mime Type Description
Excel application/vnd.ms-excel Microsoft Excel
if this entry is there for mime type then leave this step.
Hope this helps you
Thanks

XML Report - Excel output automatic cell expand

Hi,
I created a XML report with Excel output. It works fine but I have 35 columns in that report.
When I open the excel file - columns are not expanded, user needs to expand it manually.
But It should automatically expanded when the user opens the report. How can i do that?
Thanks in advance.

You need to create the rtf template with enough width for each column to render the output fully expanded when viewed from BI Publisher Desktop, which will look the same when run as a concurrent request. If you used the table wizard to create your excel layout, you can widen the columns in Word and paste/enter some spaces before or after each header field in the top row which will force the html rendering that XML Plublisher utilizes to widen the columns when creating Excel output. The fundamental disconnect here is XML Publisher is not rendering .xls or .csv output, but rather html that opens in Excel minus most Excel formatting. You might need to use a 22 inch landscape layout to fit all 35 columns after they are widened.

I can output my xml filcontent. Now I want to format the output. How can I see the data relationship. While researching api's and webservices I've seen people output boxed charts, how is this done. I want to control how I display the data in the fileconten.

XML report with excel as output in oracle HRMS

Hi All,
I need to develop an xml report with output in excel sheet.
The ouput should contain fulltime employee details in one tab and partime employee details in another tab.
Is this possible.Plz guide as to how to achive this. Any reference document or link is appreciated.
Thanks....

You can use BI publisher for your requirement -
Create a Concurrent program which is based on the executable 'XDODTEXE'
The Short_Name of the concurrent program should be the same as the data_definition short_name from Xml Publisher responsibility.
You can go through the link provided by Alex for creating the UI Template and the data template.

Emsg/signal 11 and REP-3000 problems after tweaking a PDF/XML report

Hello everyone,
Just wanted to check if anyone has encountered similar issues?
We have a custom rdf report installed by our Consultant/VAR, and is called / run from Oracle EBS using the Request Manager. This is an XML report that outputs a PDF file from a template. This report runs without problems.
We made a very slight tweak to the report's query, but now when we run the report, it reports an error, with the following message in the log file:
EMSG:was terminated by signal 11
REP3000 internal error starting oracle toolkit
When we revert back to the earlier report, it runs without problems, but this new report reports this.
I am pretty sure the changes made to the report weren't the cause of this issue because the tweaks are very minor AND I remember our Consultant/VAR encountering this issue when they first developed the report. However, they kind of forgot how they solved the issue before.
Any ideas how to fix this?
Thanks!
Derrick

This is just to close off a post I submitted years ago...in case it might help someone else in the future ...
Everyone keeps saying to change the display configuration. And actually, they were correct!! We just had to change the s_display.
In our case, we just set the s_display to :
:0.0instead of
hostname:0.0Then, we ran autoconfig for the Apps Tier.
For some reason or another, this worked.
This was on Oracle Linux 4, on EBS 11i.

Xml report not working after compiling original standard form FNDRSTND

Dear all,
I add my some code behind the button of view output in standard FNDRSUN.fmb form, I compile it and was working fine. After few days we bounce
the application and realize that xml report are not opening. I take original form and compile it, after bouncing it start working fine.
But when we did the same exercise in production, Problem still persist
Please need your solid assistant.
Thanks

Please post the details of the application release, database version and OS.
Are you saying you can't open XML reports log/output files after you bounce the application services? If yes, what is the error? Can you find any errors in the OPP/CM/DB log files?
Can you share the code you have implemented to view the output files?
Thanks,
