HOW TO REGISTER A REPORT IN ORACLE APPS

Whenever we create a report in Oracle report builder we need to register it with

oracle applications for viewing it's output in real time with real data. Usually we

create two types of reports Simple and Parametric report. Following are the steps toregister each of these reports in Oracle applications.

1. reate a !eport using !eport "uilder.

!efer previous mail related to !eport builder # !F$ reports creation.

%. ompile and copy .!$F &le in module speci&c directory.

For ompile Shortcut et (!)*S+,F(*-

,n !eal time we will use WinSP or some other F(P tools to move .!$F &le from your

local machine to server.

,f you are creating this report in ustom pplication then place the report in ustom

(op !eports folder

+ow to Find ustom (op # pplication (op/

0avigation/



uery for the pplication name eg/ Order 2anagement3 Payables3 !eceivables etc..

For ustom pplication initially after getting into a pro4ect you will get those details

opy the "asepath in the above case 5667!P8(OP9 :ase sensitive;

Open Putty3 login and enter below command

echo <667!P8(OP

for Order management / echo <O0(8(OP

so logic here is application short name 8(OP

this command will give you the location always !$F reports will be in !eports folder.

=. !egister the e>ecutable with System dministrator 2odule.

$e&ne a concurrent program e>ecutable for each e>ecutable source &le you want to

use with concurrent programs. (he concurrent program e>ecutable lins your source

&le logic with the concurrent re?uests you and your users submit to the concurrent

manager.

0avigation/



System dministrator oncurrent 7>ecutable



@ive a uni?ue 7>ecutable name and Shot 0ame :User cannot see these so can use

Pro4ect short name and re?uirement related short codes;.

pplication 0ame/ "ased on re?uirement :,n realAtime mostly will be using a custom

application;

For !$F reports always Oracle !eports

7>ecutable &le 0ame/ !eport &le name without e>tension.

B. $e&ne the oncurrent Program.

0avigation/ System dministrator oncurrent Program $e&ne



Program/ 0ame of the concurrent program which will be shown to user3 when one

tries to run it.

Short 0ame/ (his name is not used anywhere for reference. so your choice. Usually

we give it same as 7>ecutable short name.

pplication/ 0ame of pplication.

7>ecutableAC 0ame/ Short 0ame of the !eport 7>ecutable we de&ned in abovee>ecutable part.

OutputAC Format/ 62) if you want report in 62) Format3 else select any of your

re?uirement.

Style/ B :Prefer;3 Portrait3 )andscape3 whichever is best suited to your report

dimension.

Preferably we go with default values. ,f your re?uirement is diDerent3 select your

relevant option. Save the form and press Parameters button.



Under toen give the Parameter name that was used in !$F report :eg/ P8S);

Se?uence

hoose the se?uence numbers that specify the order in which your program

receives parameter values from the concurrent manager.

Enabled

$isabled parameters do not display at re?uest submission time and are not passed

to your e>ecution &le.

Ealue Set

7nter the name of the value set you want your parameter to use for validation. ou

can only select from independent3 table3 and nonAvalidated value sets.

(he ma>imum siGe of your value set is %BH characters.



$efault (ype

,f you want to set a default value for this parameter3 identify the type of value you

need.

•

(his default value for your parameter automatically appears when you enteryour parameter window.• ou determine whether the default value is a constant or a conte>tA

dependent value by choosing the default type.• our default value should be a valid value for your value set. Otherwise you

see an error message when you enter your parameter window on the !un !e?uestwindow and your default value does not appear.Ealid values for each default type include/

I. ssign the oncurrent Program to desired !e?uest @roup.

t this point3 no user will be able to e>ecute this concurrent program re?uest.

So what we need to do so is3 to attach this report to a re?uest group3 which isspeci&ed on the responsibility. 7ventually3 Users to which responsibility is attached3will be able to run the report.

,n order to &nd out the !e?uest @roup copy the !esponsibility 0ame and navigate to

System dministrator Security !esponsibility $e&ne

F11 :uery 2ode;

Paste the responsibility name and press :(!)*F11;opy the name of re?uest group as below.



then navigate to

0avigation/ System dministrator Security !esponsibility !e?uest

F11Paste !e?uest @roup name under @roup and (!) * F11dd your Program.



Submitting the program/

0avigate to the responsibility that you have added the program.

Eiew !e?uests Submit 0ew !e?uest Single !e?uest

Under name give the oncurrent Program 0ame that you created and clic onSubmit button.

Please ignore the Operating Unit highlight
