Discoverer Viewer not showing correct data when scheduled

Simon PittawaySep 8 2010 — edited Sep 13 2010
Hi All,

I have a bit of an ongoing issue and cannot find an answer through Oracle.

We have an issue that when a cross-tab workbook is run manually in Desktop this returns correct data, when scheduled in desktop it returns correct data in desktop, but when opening the scheduled workbook in viewer, incorrect and irrelevant data is returned

Here is a little information on the field that is not returning correct data;

The field is based on a calculation, the calculation (lets call BOB) contains PL/SQL function concatenated with an NVL calculation, this other calculation is a DECODE. I have been playing with changing the content of the BOB calculation, by removing the PL/SQL function and the DECODE calc from BOB and scheduling the report, the data is returned in viewer, in fact i've attempted one without the other and this still does not return the correct data.

This version of discoverer that is not returning data is V 10.1.2.50.05. I've tested this on a later environment with Discoverer V 10.1.55.26 and the data is returning correctly through the sceduled report in viewer.

My questions;

1. Has anyone ever come across something similar to this in version 10.1.2.50.05
2. Is there any detail available regarding what upgrading to 10.1.55.26 offers?
3. Know any workaround for using PL/SQL calculations in a scheduled workbook? I am aware that not aggregable items will not be returned in v11 when scheduling workbooks.

Many thanks in advance for any help.

Simon
