Registering Oracle Reports Components in OracleAS Portal
4. Click the Oracle Reports Security Settings link in the Oracle Reports Security
portlet.
5. Click the Create Reports Simple Calendar Access link in the Reports Calendar
Access portlet on the Oracle Reports Security page.
6. On the resulting page, the Name (internal name) and Portal DB Provider fields
contain default values. To include custom values:
■ Enter a unique name in the Name field that will identify the availability
calendar internally in OracleAS Portal, for example, MY_CALENDAR. This
name must follow the OracleAS Portal rules for a valid component name, i.e.,:
* It must be no more than 30 characters
* It must contain only alphanumeric characters (no spaces or special
characters allowed).
* The first character must be a letter (not a number).
■ In the Display Name field, enter the name you want to display for this
availability calendar when it is exposed through OracleAS Portal. Unlike the
internal name, the display name can have spaces in it.
■ Select a Portal DB Provider from the provider list of values. All components
added to or created in OracleAS Portal must belong to a Portal DB Provider.
This list contains the names of only those providers with which you have
privileges to build components.
7. Click Next.
8. Optionally, enter a description of the calendar under Description.
9. Click Next.
Note: For information on creating a Portal DB Provider, see the
OracleAS Portal online help.
10. On the Date/Time Availability page, define the parameters for the calendar:
Under Duration, specify the length of time that comprises a unit of duration (or
duration period). For example, if you plan to set this calendar up to allow report
access from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM on a given day, then both Start and End would be
the same month, day, and year, but the hour and minute setting for Start would be
9:00 AM and for End would be 5:00 PM. In this example, the duration of
availability of a report on a given day is from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Under Repeat, specify how frequently the duration period is repeated:
■ Occurs only once means the duration period does not repeat, and associated
components are no longer available when the period expires. For example, if
you select Occurs only once and set a duration period of one year, then the
associated components cease to be available after one year.
■ Yearly means the duration period restarts each year. If you select Yearly and
have the same start and end date in your Duration setting, but your Start hour
is set to 9:00 AM and your End hour is set to 5:00 PM, then the Reports
components associated with this availability calendar will be available one
day a year between 9:00 and 5:00.
■ Monthly means the duration period restarts each month between the Start
and End dates specified under Duration. If you select Monthly and have the
