XML Report Excel Display Issue

Hello All,
While working on MS-Excel we observed the default behavior of MS-Excel is to show decimal places only when it is greater than 00 i.e. “22.56”
But when the value is “22.00”, MS-Excel will display “22”
Our client required those values with two decimal places. If the value is 22 then it should display 22.00.we already achieved that value with converted those numerical value to character with using TO_CHAR function.but they required data should be display in numerical.
Can anyone please help to achieve this scenario?
Thanks in advance
Thanks,

could you please help in how to set default datatype for numeric values in ms-word.
Thnks again..

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.

SSRS Report Viewer display issues after KB2888505 and now KB2898785

After patch KB2888505 both IE 9 and IE 10 started displaying cropped images with horizontal scroll bars when viewing SSRS Reports.  These reports functioned and fit the screen without scroll bars prior to this patch and returns
to normal once the patch is uninstalled.  There is no compatibility mode icon in the address bar and I have tried all browser modes in the F12 Developer Tools Menu with no change. Rolling back KB2888505 was a temp fix for my
users until KB2898785 was installed reverting back to the same cropped reports with the scroll bar. The only versions of IE in my environment are 9 and 10 and upgrading to 11 is not an option at this time. Others have reported this same issue so
maybe we can get more visibility on TechNet.

Hi,
These two KB include too many Individual updates. It's hard to figure out which exact update lead to this issue.
If you make sure the issue is caused by these updates package. The simple and easier way is to uninstall them.

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.

Printing parameter values in xml report, and displaying it in header of the

Hi All,
Can anybody give me an idea to print the parameter values in the xml report.
My requirement is like, I have 10 parameters in report builder, I have generated the xml file and created the .rtf template and finally registerted in oracle apps. But now, the requirement is to print the parameter values in the report output.I don't see any xml tags in the xml output.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I think all the XML attributes can contain lexicals. If you bring up the property palette against the report object you can just set the following:
XML Tag Attributes: myParameter="&<P_1>"
where P_1 is your user parameter.

Crystal Reports Excel Export Issue - page footer not being displayed

We recently converted all Crystal Reports from Visual Studio 2003 to Visual Studio 2005 sp1, .NET 2.0, Crystal Reports for .NET. I have the latest merge modules from business objects. All reports & footers worked fine in VS2003 ... but now when I export to PortableDocumentFormat (PDF) or WordForWindows (DOC) the page footers appear correctly. But, when I export to Excel (XLS) like the code below, the page footers do not appear. We need to place a disclaimer at the bottom of every page of an exported excel document. I checked the print preview, and I tested printing the document ... the the footer is not being utilized properly by the Crystal Reports export.
System.IO.MemoryStream oStream = new System.IO.MemoryStream() ;
oStream = (System.IO.MemoryStream) report.ExportToStream(CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportFormatType.Excel) ;
Response.Clear() ;
Response.Buffer = true ;
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel" ;
Response.BinaryWrite(oStream.ToArray()) ;
Response.End();
I have asked the question in msdn forum
http://forums.msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/vsreportcontrols/thread/0ead9e34-bc45-4062-90dd-17f8f8ebf062

fyi - if i hadn't mentioned it, problem occurs in all our environments (developer workstation, development server, testing server, production server, etc.)
on my development workstation i found the file 3 times
c:\program files\common files\business objects\1.0\bin\crxf_xls.dll
has file version 9.1.1.557
c:\program files\common files\business objects\2.7\bin\crxf_xls.dll
has file version 10.2.0.1093
c:\program files\common files\business objects\3.0\bin\crxf_xls.dll

on my development server (and our other environment servers too)
c:\program files\common files\business objects\2.7\bin\crxf_xls.dll
has file version 10.2.0.1210
so just from that i notice that the file versions in the 2.7 bin are different from my developer workstation to my development server ... but the issue still occurs in both places.

Crystal report - Data display issue

Hi all,
       I did a crystal report. the labels in the crystal report are
                QTR1 QTR2 QTR3 QTR4
     If I select the prompt value as QTR3, the values should display under QTR3, but data is displaying under QTR1
     If I select the prompt value as QTR3 and QTR4, the values should display under QTR3 and QTR4 columns, but data is displaying under QTR1& QTR2.
i.e., the data is displaying in an order starting from first column.
Please let me know if I need to change any prompt settings to get the data in the order I needed.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Viswa

there are 2 ways this can be done.
do they only run one qtr at a time?
you can create a group for each quarter
create a parameter to pull by quarter.
in the record selection place this statement
(if {@qtr}=0 then true else = {@qtr})
in the parameter place 0 if the qtr is numeric value otherwise place ALL (replace the 0 in the record selection with all if necc)
this will retrieve all the qtrs or the qtr specified.
if you create groupings for the qtrs place the value of the qtr in the details section below where you want to display qtr 2.
you will need to create formulas to differentiate the qtrs.
if qtr1 in date to date then $ amount
create a formula for all qtrs. this will display the dollar or value for the qtr date range only. otherwise a zero or null will be displayed.
right click on the section and go to section expert
in supress section click on the formual button
if qtr=1 then true. (keep in mind it is a supression formula so true will supress the qtr, false will display)
then on the values in the the detail section you can supress those based upon a formula also like above.

Xml report:Page break issue

Hi I am working on PO Printing Report.There are mainly three section .1 is Header part which contains informaition like Bill to Address Ship to address,vendor address payment terms etc,middle part contais lots of information like header notes,supplier header note,note to vendor ,ship instruction,line notes ,if po cancelled then its informaition,if any line gets cancelled than the same information , all lines for this PO and many more.After this section we have footer like part which have total column and signature.The total and signature are dynamic.i.e should appean in last page only.The last page of report for a PO conatains a image Terms And Condtion.
Now problem is as there are lots of data in middle part ,It pushes the footer part to the next page.I need to break the page after certain height of table or certain no of records in table so as to have footer remain in each page.
Is there any way to fix no of records in middle part or calculate heigth of table at run time ...when it reaches to its max height ,I break the page.
Or I include the footer section in page footer but as its dynamic How can I get total column value and signature url dynamically.
Please suggest me how to achieve this.....

Welcome to the forum !
I don't see your report, but I'm almost sure that one of your data exceeds field size. To fix it, try set for all your report items (frames, fields, repeating frames) vertical elasticity to variable and horizontal elasticity to fixed. It should fix your problem. Afterwards you can investigate which filed/frame causes an error, setting back elasticity of your items

How can I modify xml report body content ?

I am trying to modify the Teststand XML report to display the actual datasource name instead of "numeric" when I used a Numeric Limit step. In other words, I want to be able to rename the "numeric" label with something of my choice.
I saw some examples on report modifications, but nothing to the point.
Thanks,

XML Report Issue while generating the Report in EXCEL

Hi All,
I have Created the XML Report which will generate the output in EXCEL format. I am having the issue with the report output in EXCEL.
In my Case,
If I ran the concurrent it got completed normally and the output got completed normally and the output is generated successfully if the data for the input parameter combinations exists.
Issue is if there is no data exists for the combinations of parameters choosen then it gives the output in excel with the headers alone some times. (meaning there is no combinations of data exists for the input given excel is having headers alone).
wiseversa
sometimes the output in excel there is no header part too..(meaning the excel is empty/null).
Could anyone suggest how to resolve the issue so that the output in excel can include the header part if the data not exists for the input given. so that it should not generate the output as blank in excel i want the header alone should be included even if the report has no data for the input combination given.
Its very urgent issue.
Any suggestion will be a great help for me.
Thanks ,
Ravi.

Internet Explorer 9 doesn't display XML Report Text

I have just updated reasently to Internet Explorer 9 and now all of my XML Reports do not show the report text. I've attached a pic where you can plainly see the report test in TestStand but not in IE9.
The other intresting thing is if the XML is on one of our company network drives it displays fine just not if opened from the local drive.
Any ideas?
Solved!

Paul -
This is a known issue that will be fixed in the TestStand 2010 maintenance release. If you'd like to workaround this issue by modifying the XML style sheet for your report without using the Compatibility option that you found in IE9, follow these steps.
If using a default style sheet, save a copy with a different name to preserve the original file.
Open the style sheet in a text or code editor.
Search for node.firstChild.text by using the Find tool in your editing environment.
Replace the line:
            var text = node.firstChild.text;
with:
            var valueChildNode = node.selectSingleNode("Value");
     var text = "";
     if (valueChildNode)
       text = valueChildNode.text;
     else
       text = node.text;
Search for Error: by using the Find tool in your editing environment.
Replace the line:
           Error: <xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="yes" select="user:RemoveIllegalCharacters(.)"/>
with:
           Error: <xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="yes" select="user:RemoveIllegalCharacters(ErrorText)"/>
Save the new version of the style sheet.
Open TestStand and go to Configure»Report Options...
In the Contents tab, change the style sheet to point to your updated version.
Run a sequence that you expect to populate the Report Text.
Open the generated XML report in IE9 and verify that the Report Text is properly populated.
Hope this helps.

Can anyone please advise me on this issue.

Try to check your system time (local settings i.e control panel-> time....) is displaying correctly or not. As BO will take your local system date/ time in reporting.
