SRW.USER_EXIT('FND SRWINIT');
SRW.USER_EXIT('FND SRWEXIT');
Define the following parameters using the Data Model Painter. You use these parameters in the user exit calls and SQL statements.
Lexical Parameters | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Name | Data Type | Width | Initial Value | Notes |
P_CONC_REQUEST_ID | Number | 15 | 0 | Always create |
P_FLEXDATA | Character | 6000 | Very long string | Cumulative width more than expected width required to hold the data |
P_STRUCT_NUM | Character | 15 | 101 | Contains structure number |
P_WHERE | Character | 200 | Valid WHERE clause | Used to construct WHERE clause |
P_ORDERBY | Character | 16000 | Valid ORDER BY clause | Used to construct ORDER BY clause |
P_OPERAND1 | Character | 15 | Used to construct the P_WHERE parameter | |
P_COMPANY | Character | 16000 | Very long string | |
P_SET_OF_BOOKS | Character | Obtain from GL | Use in the report header | |
P_CURRENCY | Character | 15 | Use in the report header | |
P_PERIOD | Character | Obtain from GL | Use in the report header |
P_ORDERBY and P_COMPANY are very long strings because they contain long DECODE statements for multiple structures.
Now you build parameters for three queries. First query Q_COMPANY retrieves all the companies, The second query Q_MASTER fetches one record of flexfield data for each company to build company left prompt, above prompts etc. Thus the first two queries are used to build the master record. The third query (Q_DETAIL) fetches all the flexfield data for each company.
First you populate all the parameters to be used in the first query for getting all the companies (Q_COMPANY) . Call FND FLEXSQL to populate P_COMPANY. Use this parameter to retrieve all the master records. Call this user exit as follows-
SRW.USER_EXIT('FND FLEXSQL CODE="GL#" MULTINUM="YES" APPL_SHORT_NAME="SQLGL" OUTPUT=":P_COMPANY" MODE="SELECT" DISPLAY="GL_BALANCING"');
Attention: In a multi-structure flexfield report MODE="WHERE" is invalid.
Next, you build all the parameters of the next two queries for obtaining flexfield data. You make two calls to FND FLEXSQL from the Before Report Trigger specifying the lexical parameters.
SRW.USER_EXIT('FND FLEXSQL CODE="GL#" MULTINUM="YES" APPL_SHORT_NAME="SQLGL" OUTPUT=":P_FLEXDATA" MODE="SELECT" DISPLAY="ALL"');
The second call changes the value of lexical P_ORDERBY to the SQL fragment (for example to SEGMENT3, SEGMENT2, SEGMENT4, SEGMENT1) at run time. When this lexical parameter is incorporated into the ORDER BY clause of a query, it enables the query to order by flexfield segments. The AOL call is same as first one except for MODE="ORDER BY" as follows:
SRW.USER_EXIT('FND FLEXSQL CODE="GL#" MULTINUM="YES" APPL_SHORT_NAME="SQLGL" OUTPUT=":P_ORDERBY" MODE="ORDER BY" DISPLAY="ALL"');
Define your report's first query (Q_COMPANY) to fetch all the different companies and flexfield structure numbers.
SELECT DISTINCT &P_COMPANY C_MASTER, CHART_OF_ACCOUNTS_ID C_NUM_C FROM CODE_COMBINATIONS_TABLE
Please note the difference in the query from the queries earlier. This query contains one extra column C_NUM_C. You use this column to supply the structure number in the user exit FND FLEXIDVAL.
When the report runs, the call to FND FLEXSQL fills in the lexical parameter to look something like:
SELECT DISTINCT (SEGMENT1) C_MASTER, CHART_OF_ACCOUNTS_ID C_NUM_C FROM CODE_COMBINATIONS_TABLE
The second query (Q_MASTER) fetches one record of flexfield data for each company to build the company left prompt and description. It is also used for constructing the above prompt for displaying concatenated flexfield value descriptions retrieved in the detail query.
SELECT &P_COMPANY C_MASTER2, STRUCTURE_DEFINING_COLUMN C_NUM_M, &P_FLEXDATA C_FLEXDATA_MASTER FROM CODE_COMBINATIONS_TABLE WHERE ROWNUM < 2 AND &P_COMPANY = :C_MASTER AND STRUCTURE_DEFINING_COLUMN = :C_NUM_C
This query has Q_COMPANY as its parent group.
You use "ROWNUM < 2" because you want only one record in that region. You use the parent-child relationship "AND &P_COMPANY = :C_MASTER" within your query, instead of using "link", so that Oracle Reports can recognize that the columns specified by your parameters are related. You create an "empty link" to G_COMPANY to make G_COMPANY the parent group.
Now you define your report detail query (Q_FLEX):
SELECT &P_COMPANY C_DETAIL, CHART_OF_ACCOUNTS_ID C_NUM_D, &P_FLEXDATA C_FLEXDATA [, NORMALCOLUMNS...] FROM CODE_COMBINATIONS_TABLE WHERE &P_COMPANY = :C_MASTER AND STRUCTURE_DEFINING_COLUMN = :C_NUM_C ORDER BY &P_ORDERBY
When the report runs, the four calls to FND FLEXSQL fill in the lexical parameters to look something like:
SELECT (SEGMENT1) C_DETAIL, CHART_OF_ACCOUNTS_ID C_NUM_D (SEGMENT1||'-'||SEGMENT2||'-'||SEGMENT3||'-'|| SEGMENT4) C_FLEXDATA [, NORMALCOLUMNS...] FROM CODE_COMBINATIONS_TABLE WHERE (SEGMENT1) = :C_MASTER AND STRUCTURE_DEFINING_COLUMN = :C_NUM_C ORDER BY SEGMENT3, SEGMENT2, SEGMENT4, SEGMENT1
This query has G_MASTER as its parent group.
Now create columns corresponding to the values displayed in Region 2. They all are in Q_MASTER group. To retrieve the flexfield segment value, left prompt and description, you incorporate the AOL user exits in the corresponding columns. Be sure to adjust the column width as appropriate for the value the column holds (such as a prompt, which might be as long as 30 characters).
First create column C_BAL_LPROMPT (for columns corresponding to "Company" in the sample output). In this column incorporate FND FLEXIDVAL calls in the formula field. You pass the concatenated segments along with other information to the user exit:
SRW.REFERENCE(:C_NUM_M); SRW.REFERENCE(:C_FLEXDATA_MASTER); SRW.USER_EXIT('FND FLEXIDVAL CODE="GL#" NUM=":C_NUM_M" APPL_SHORT_NAME="SQLGL" DATA=":C_FLEXDATA_MASTER" LPROMPT=":C_BAL_LPROMPT" DISPLAY="GL_BALANCING"'); RETURN(:C_BAL_LPROMPT);
The user exit populates "Company" in the column 'C_BAL_LPROMPT'.
Similarly create columns C_BAL_DESC (displaying Widget Corporation) with the following calls:
SRW.REFERENCE(:C_NUM_M); SRW.REFERENCE(:C_FLEXDATA_MASTER); SRW.USER_EXIT('FND FLEXIDVAL CODE="GL#" NUM=":C_NUM_M" APPL_SHORT_NAME="SQLGL" DATA=":C_FLEXDATA_MASTER" DESCRIPTION=":C_BAL_DESC" DISPLAY="GL_BALANCING"'); RETURN(:C_BAL_DESC);
Create the above prompt ("Company-Country-Currency-Status") in the sample output by the following call:
SRW.REFERENCE(:C_NUM_M); SRW.REFERENCE(:C_FLEXDATA_MASTER); SRW.USER_EXIT('FND FLEXIDVAL CODE="GL#" NUM=":C_NUM_M" APPL_SHORT_NAME="SQLGL" DATA=":C_FLEXDATA_MASTER" APROMPT=":C_APROMPT" DISPLAY="GL_BALANCING"'); RETURN(:C_APROMPT);
You construct columns corresponding to the region 3 of the report in the following steps.
Create formula columns C_FLEXFIELD and C_DESC_ALL to display concatenated segment values and description respectively. These columns have same group (G_DETAIL) as C_FLEXDATA. Be sure to adjust the column width as appropriate for the value the column holds (such as a prompt, which might be as long as 30 characters).
To retrieve the concatenated flexfield segment values and description, you incorporate the AOL user exits in these columns. In the column definition of C_FLEXFIELD incorporate AOL user exit (FND FLEXIDVAL) call in the formula field.
SRW.REFERENCE(:C_NUM_D); SRW.REFERENCE(:C_FLEXDATA); SRW.USER_EXIT('FND FLEXIDVAL CODE="GL#" NUM=":C_NUM_D" APPL_SHORT_NAME="SQLGL" DATA=":C_FLEXDATA" VALUE=":C_FLEXFIELD" DISPLAY="ALL"'); RETURN(:C_FLEXFIELD);
To populate segment descriptions use DESCRIPTION="C_DESC_ALL" instead of VALUE="C_FLEXFIELD" as in the previous step. The user exit call becomes:
SRW.REFERENCE(:C_NUM_D); SRW.REFERENCE(:C_FLEXDATA); SRW.USER_EXIT('FND FLEXIDVAL CODE="GL#" NUM=":C_NUM_D" APPL_SHORT_NAME="SQLGL" DATA=":C_FLEXDATA" DESCRIPTION=":C_DESC_ALL" DISPLAY="ALL"'); RETURN(:C_DESC_ALL);
You have created parameters and columns that are containers of all the values to be displayed. Now, in the following steps, you create the layout to display these values on the report.
First choose Default Layout to generate the default layout. Deselect group G_COMPANY and columns C_FLEXDATA_MASTER, C_DETAIL, C_FLEXDATA. Delete all the labels of C_BAL_LPROMPT, C_MASTER2, C_BAL_DESC, C_APROMPT as these labels are not required. Specify reasonable widths for these columns.
Default Layout Column Settings | ||
---|---|---|
Column | Label | Width |
C_FLEXFIELD | Accounting Flexfield | 30 |
C_DESC_ALL | Flexfield Description | 50 |
C_APROMPT | 100 | |
C_BAL_DESC | 40 | |
C_BAL_LPROMPT | 20 | |
C_MASTER2 | 4 | |
Table 1 - 81. (Page 2 of 2) |
Oracle Reports takes you to the layout painter. Before modifying the default layout in the painter, you may want to generate and run the report with the current layout to test the previous steps.
Now you modify the default locations of the fields and create new fields in the layout painter. First [SELECT ALL] and move all fields to the desired location as shown in the sample layout of Regions 2 and 3. Remove M_MASTER_HDR. Enlarge M_MASTER_GRPFR (that is the header and group frames for Master) by three lines so that it can contain boiler plate text "Accounting Flexfield" and the underline. Resize and move the field F_APROMPT as shown in the sample layout to display above prompt as displayed in the sample output. Add all the boiler plate text "Accounting Flexfield", underline below and underling below the above prompt.
You modify fields to display "Company", "01" and "Widget Corporation" in the Group 1 (region 2). As shown in the Sample Layout, modify F_BAL_LPROMPT, F_MASTER2 and F_BAL_DESC fields so that they are side by side with the unit length. Specify "Horizontal Sizing" as "Variable". This ensures that the fields always be apart by a fixed amount and adjust due to their variable sizing. Sources of these fields are C_BAL_LPROMPT, C_MASTER2 and C_BAL_DESC respectively.
In this step you build the layout for Region 1. At the top of report, 'Foreign Currency General Ledger' is boilerplate that can be added using the layout painter. 'Currency:' and 'Period:' are also Boiler plates and the corresponding fields ('CND' and DEC-90) are filled by lexical input parameters P_CURRENCY, P_PERIOD. 'Set of Books 2' is filled by input lexical parameter P_SET_OF_BOOKS. Similarly, the 'Date' and 'Page' fields are filled by system parameters 'Current Date' and 'Logical Page Number'.
Use the Field Definition property sheet of F_FLEXFIELD to specify "Vertical Sizing" as "Variable". This ensures that when the data is larger than the field width, the value wraps and it is not truncated. This can be seen in the description of flexfield values in line 15 of the sample output.
