Hi guys,

Could you please help me to figure out what is going wrong
with my form which run a report?

I am using Developer suite 10g.

when i run report from report application it run fine,
but when i call that report from a form it gives me error.
I have checked the datatype, checked the parameter value
that I assign from form is available in the report parameter value.

What else do i have to check in order to run this report
from the form.



Error Message from Report Queue Manager:

Invalid value for parameter 'P_YEAR'.



I have also attached the error screenshot.


Your insight will be appreciated.

check the format mask of the parameter from where you are passing the value and to which parameter you are passing the value ( in report ),
the format mask must be same.

try to add format mask like this be sure that the year format write must be same as in report parameter.

add_parameter(pl_id,'report_parameter',text_parameter,to_char(:text_item,'YYYY'))

Thanks for your reply.

Now i am facing this :

Warning: The value of restricted LOV parameter P_YEAR
is not among the selectable values.


Even though i have exactly put the same
values at the both - Report parameter and Form parameter

What could be wrong still?

plz write that statement only where you are assigning value to p_year to report form, remove the remaining code

First of all many thanks for your reply.


There are record_group created for all parameters
and that reocrd group has a 'p_year' parameter and its
values derived from : select distinct to_char(yr_no), to_char(yr_no) from authorized_utilization_s order by to_char(yr_no)


In the form there is procedure called: run_report
in that procedure i found the following area
for parameter assignment.


report_otherparms := 'p_year = '||:reports_control.year_list ;



Now the value in 'p_year = ' is already to_char from the select statement.

now on the other hand of report
i have a parameter p_year in the user define parameter
with the datatype of character.

Earlier it was giving me error : invalid value of parameter p_year , untill i remove a space from p_year parameter from the form.

And now i have a error of : Warning: The value of restricted LOV parameter Report_type is not among the selectable values.

Even though i have specified the same exact value at the both - report parameter as well as form parameter.


When, for the hack of it, i removed check box from restricted LOV parameter , it did not give any error and report runs
like for hours which usually turn up in two minitues.


So what is going on?


Thanking you again,

no thanx for me plz,
i m probably also new to it but the problem you were facing was same as i had faced but i was in Developer 6i, never used the developer 10g. But the basic is same for all developers.

Since you have solve the problem for P_year for error facing value but try this for better use i think
select distinct to_char(yr_no,'YYYY') from authorized_utilization_s order by to_char(yr_no)

and be sure that the format mask in report parameter is also YYYY and data type and length is same both in report prameter and form parameter, change this in all where you want to select the P_year only there where you are introducing it or selecting it not in order by and else statements.
try hope the LOV problem will be solve automatically i think.
else sorry for more help bcz i didnt did that ever.
SORRY
