Execution of BI Publisher Pre-Report Triggers

Avatar photoCustomer December 9, 2019 at 2:37 am

Many of our BI Publisher reports rely on `beforeReportTrigger` to populate temporary tables. How does Blitz Report handle and execute this trigger logic during or before the report execution?

      When a BI Publisher report is imported, the original data definition XML is stored in the BIP Code field of the Blitz Report setup. When this field is populated, Blitz Report automatically executes the `dataTrigger` section, such as the `beforeReportTrigger`, of the associated XML template before it executes the primary report SQL.

      So, reports that depend on data preprocessed into global temporary tables are supported?

      Yes, this feature allows running BI Publisher report SQLs that rely on PLSQL code to populate data into global temporary tables prior to execution.
