Always be prepared when embarking on an adventure • Test Environment • Save often • Validate, Validate, Validate
Embedded vs Independent Query • Embedded query is attached to the layout. It is created by creating a new Report. When a new report is created a layout is also created.
One way of attaching an independent query to the layout of the report is to create a new report first
Independent query is created by creating a new query and later attaching it to a report
Open properties • Click on the Advanced tab • Choose Data Source • Component Name > SQLDataSource • Select the query under Value
To modify the query, close the layout and click on Edit Query under Report properties window
When to use embedded or independent query • Use embedded query when you have subreports. NOTE: reports with subreports may run a bit slower as each subreport will have its own query. • Use independent query if you want to reuse query for other reports
WARNING!!!!!!!!! • NOTE: Do not modify an independent query that you want to use for a different report. Make a copy of the query, give it a different name and modify. • When using an independent query remember if you make a change to one report using the query then it will affect the other reports using the query.
Differences Between 4.0 and 4.5From a Report Writing Perspective SoftLAB 4.0 • Tags are easily obtainable via comment fields • Flags are more difficult to obtain as they are ASCII and BITAND values • Specimen tracking is more simplistic but less information is available SoftLAB 4.5 • HIS numbers more easily accessible • No tag comments in the comment fields • Flags are mostly separate fields • Specimen tracking database structure was reworked and more complex
COMMENTS field in 4.5 • Most COMMENTS field in 4.5 have CLOB (Character Large Object)data type
Texts in Comments field • No custom function was created to parse out texts in comments field When a query includes DISTINCT keyword to eliminate duplicate rows it produces error:
CLOB COMMENTS HAS TO BE CONVERTED USING ORACLE FUNCTIONS: • DBMS_LOB.SUBSTR(COMMENTS, 4000) OR • TO_CHAR(SUBSTR(COMMENTS, 1, 3999)) In SQL the maximum characters that can be converted from CLOB is 4000
RichTextBoxcontrol has to be used in 4.5 instead of TextBox control in the layout to get comments to print correctly. NOTE: The RichTextBoxcontrol does not work well with excel reports. It will always create extra rows. The issue is on the Excel side and not SoftReports
In 4.0 most comments field need custom function to print texts in one line Example: Free text (type Z) Order Comments

DERIVED Tables • A “derived table” is essentially a statement-local temporary table created by means of a subquery in the FROM clause of a SQL SELECT statement. It exists only in memory and behaves like a standard view or table.
When to use Derived tables: • Derived tables are useful when you need to generate aggregates in a table • AGGREGATES: • COUNT, SUM, AVG, MAX, MIN Example: SELECT q_ordcount.ORDERED_DATE, Count(q_ordcount.ID) AS ORD_COUNTS FROM (SELECT o.ID, o.ORDERED_DATE, NVL(%StartDate%, to_char(trunc(add_months(sysdate, -3), 'MM'), 'YYYYMMDD')) AS SDATE, NVL(%EndDate%, to_char(trunc(last_day(add_months(sysdate, -1))), 'YYYYMMDD')) AS EDATE FROM lab.lab.V_P_LAB_ORDER o WHERE o.ORDERED_DATE BETWEEN NVL(%StartDate%, to_char(trunc(add_months(sysdate, -3), 'MM'), 'YYYYMMDD')) AND NVL(%EndDate%, to_char(trunc(last_day(add_months(sysdate, -1))), 'YYYYMMDD')) ) q_ordcount GROUP BY q_ordcount.ORDERED_DATE ORDER BY q_ordcount.ORDERED_DATE
Result from Query: • This shows counts of orders per day • M is month in number
