Example of Generating a Parameterized Report


This topic gives one example of generating a Siebel report. You might use this feature differently, depending on your business needs.

In this example, assume you have created a parameterized report and want to generate that report in a specific format.

To generate a parameterized report

  1. Navigate to the application view that the parameterized report is associated with.
  2. Run a query to limit the number of records returned, and then click Submit.
  3. Select the report from the Reports menu.

    NOTE:  If this report has parameters defined, the Siebel application retrieves the parameters from the parameter definitions for the report template defined in the Siebel application.

  4. From the parameter pop-up applet, select the parameter values for the report, and then click Submit.

    NOTE:  If the report does not have a default output type defined, you must select the output file type, and then click Submit again.

The report is generated by the Oracle BI Publisher Server, and then transferred to the Siebel application screen. For more information about generating reports, see Generating Reports.
