Report Content

The report content returned by the external report server can be used in different ways within Transportation and Global Trade Management Cloud. You have to specify the report content type for each report in Transportation and Global Trade Management Cloud. The following types of report content are supported in Transportation and Global Trade Management Cloud.

  • Embedded: Embedded content means that report content returned by the external report server can be distributed to a browser, email, printer, or stored in content management systems without needing links or nested frames. You may, however, get back an HTML page that references other URLs from the report server. If a third party generator returns embedded content, it can be used as a replacement for Oracle Analytics Publisher.
  • Browser Only: Browser-only content means that report content returned by the external report server will be sent to a browser. Selecting this option lets you optionally include links or fields applicable to report content. Transportation and Global Trade Management Cloud does not support distribution or storing of content for this option.
  • None: This means that report content is not generated and returned by external report server. Instead an alternative URL link is used to generate the report on the report manager. These reports cannot be transactional as they do not accept business object information from Transportation and Global Trade Management Cloud. The standard Run/Schedule links to the report are not supported, nor are the reports included on any action menu. Instead, there is a single Report link in the Third Party Reports section of the Report Manager that directs the browser directly to the third party URL. Transportation and Global Trade Management Cloud does not add any implicit or explicit query parameters to the URL.
