Creating a Custom Report

Adding a new code list ID REPORT_TEMPLATE and Decoding Context REPALG for custom FAR

This section provides guidelines to create a new custom BIP report using the existing data extraction packages. Only 3 algorithms, PMAR, PBRER, and DSUR, can be used for any new custom reports using the data extraction packages. Any new algorithm logic (other than the 3 mentioned above) must be added by the user in the data extraction package.

To create a new custom BIP report:

  1. Go to Oracle Argus Safety UI > Oracle Argus Safety Console > Code Lists > Flexible Data Re-Categorization.
  2. Select the code list ID as REPORT TEMPLATE and click Search.
  3. Enter a new row by clicking Add New and entering the necessary details.

    The REPPATH value must be entered correctly. For the REPTEMPLATE value, enter whatever must appear in the UI (Report Configuration, such as CUST).

  4. Once this entry is made, the details can be seen in the database under code_list_detail_discrete table.
  5. Log in to Oracle Analytics Publisher and create a new folder under Oracle Argus Safety as per the value you entered in the REPPATH. In the example used, it is mentioned as CUSTOM and so the folder created is called CUSTOM.
  6. You can prepare the custom data model and report template as per your requirements. You must ensure that the Before Report Event Trigger under Data Model contains the same value as mentioned in the REPTEMPLATE (such as CUST).
  7. Apply the changes and Save. Configure/create a report under Argus Safety Report configuration section and print/run the report. The new REPTEMPLATE value appears in the drop-down list.
  8. Once the report is generated, you can take the output from the Argus Report Configuration.
