  • Are you trying to install from scratch? If so, just import the script and application in New.  You only need the upgrade scripts and zips if upgrading from an older version.

  • hi Micheal,

    I am installing the EUR app and have successfully imported the sql scripts and application package in the <new> folder but when importing the <upgrade> application "1.4.0 to 1.5.0.zip", I am getting the below inspect error. Would you please check whether the sequence to be imported in the <upgrade> folder is in correct order to proceed. Can I skip the inspect error to proceed importing the application zip in sequence as in the <upgrade> folder?.

    If not, can you please share the latest full application package, db scripts & custom properties which includes all the upgrades for the new package installation. Please advise. Thanks

  • The way it works currently, is you need to have this app installed to use calendar. Then you need to enable calendar via the Configure Chart Types action.

  • Could anyone explain , after enabling the chart type "Calender" ..Create new report is giving error message "An error has occurred". Not only creating even editing is also giving the same error for existing report.

  • v3.0.0 Release Notes
    • Bug Fixes:
    • Fix for MariaDB 2.8.0 to 3.0.0.sql
    • Fix for 2.8.0 to 3.0.0.properties

  • Thats correct. Wanted to explore that option. As part of this first I updated the constant with my application name.
    Then updated my records by linking Application via Application dropdown value.

    After this went ahead and created a new report and observed that report entry created in table was missing application field value.

    Let me know if this is not the right sequence of steps.

  • This is hopefully resolved in the newest version. Just make sure to also deploy the Oracle patch on top of the deployment to make sure the CDTs match up with the Oracle column types.

  • I can fix that issue, but the normal usage of application specific dashboards should use a wrapper of the EUR_Home rule as mentioned in "How to Configure Application Specific Dashboards" article in the documentation.  This will handle the persistence of the application in the reports and dashboards.

  • Thanks.
    Also tried to Configure Application Specific Dashboards, But having issue with this.

    Able to save the records with Application. But when I tried to create the new report application value is not persisted in the database table (eurreport). After further debugging realized that logic in the interface EUR_ReportBuilder & EUR_ReportBuilderSetup should be updated to save the selected application value in the respective rule input.
