ORACLE REPORT MANAGER
![Page 6: Oracle Report Manager June 13, 2013](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56815255550346895dc08ab0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Oracle Report Manager is an online report distribution system that provides a secure and centralized location to produce and manage all Oracle Reports (FSG, Variable, and Standard).
Oracle Report Manager allows for the use of data from any existing Oracle report or FSG and reformat the data to a different presentation style or delivery format (Excel, PDF, HTML)
Oracle Report Manager reports can be placed on the Oracle E-Business Suite Home page or portal.
Approve reports before making them available for general viewing. Secure reports by utilizing values, custom, and flexfield segment Archive reports for future reference that no longer need to be
displayed.

TEMPLATES
![Page 9: Oracle Report Manager June 13, 2013](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56815255550346895dc08ab0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
A template is the report format that is used by the report manager to publish the reports. All templates are created in Excel
All the templates are report specific and templates need to be defined for each and every report the user has.
Pre-seeded template called ‘Generic FSG Template’ can be used with any report, however, cannot be modified
When creating a new template or editing an existing template you can make the following changes:– Add and remove report elements.– Change the location of report elements on the page.– Modify row and column sizes.– Use standard Excel font formatting such as bold. Default formatting is provided.– Insert text that remains static in the report.– Add images. Supported image files are png, gif, jpg, and bmp– Add background watermark images– Include hyperlinks– Add data values. Data values are report objects that link to XML elements of the report
output file and the values are obtained during the publishing process.– Move columns– Insert blank rows

All reports submitted through the Report Manager are stored in the Reports Repository.
The Repository Management allows you to:– Organize and view completed reports– Update publishing and security options for completed
reports– Archive and delete reports
Repository Management shows you a hierarchical grid structure that provides an easy way of locating reports. You can only add reports to the repository when the report is published.
