Hi,

I am trying to run Cash receipt report in reports builder. But the output is always blank. It is not even giving any fields created in the layout. This report was developed by some other developer, and there is no documentation available.

I am able to run the query in TOAD and I am getting genuine rows.

Please help.

Thanks in advance

Is there a format trigger somewhere (possibly in the outmost frame) that returns FALSE?

It is in the Property Inspector, somewhere at the bottom of the list.

Thanks again for the reply.

I could run the report if I give the "Receipt number" parameter alone and avoid giving the "From Date" and "To Date" parameters.

Now I tried registering this report in oracle apps. After registering the report and we run it from apps end, the output is blank. Is there any settings to be changed in the concurrent program/Executable?

Thanks again

I don't know Oracle Apps.

However: mentioning "from date" (and "to date") reminds me of one thing: did you use correct datatypes? Did you, perhaps, rely on implicit conversion between CHAR and DATE datatype? If so, well, you shouldn't have. When dealing with dates, use dates. It means that you might need to involve the TO_DATE function. Something like

... WHERE some_date_column BETWEEN TO_DATE(:from_date, 'dd.mm.yyyy') 
                               AND TO_DATE(:to_date  , 'dd.mm.yyyy')
