Blitz Report Assignment Upload – Oracle EBS SQL Report
Oracle E-Business Suite SQL report from the Enginatics Library powered by Blitz Report™.
Overview
Upload to maintain Blitz Report assignments. The upload support creating, deleting or copying assignment and can be run with the following modes:
-Create with ‘Create Empty File’=Yes: Opens an empty Excel file to enter new assignments.
-Create with ‘Create Empty File’=blank: You can query a list of reports that you want create assignments for by report name, category or report type.
-Create, Update: Allows querying existing assignments, which can be deleted, or copied to a different assignment level. A frequent use case for customers having custom responsibilities linked to custom applications would be to copy seeded application level Enginatics assignments to custom applications instead. For this, you can query all Enginatics application level assignments, replace the application names with the corresponding custom applications, and upload the file again. Note that in this scenario, the Action column would show ‘Update’, but it would create new records, not update when uploading the file.

Blitz Report Assignment Upload - Case Study & Technical Analysis
Executive Summary
The Blitz Report Assignment Upload is a powerful mass-maintenance tool for managing report security. It allows administrators to assign reports to Users, Responsibilities, or Applications in bulk using an Excel interface. This tool supports creating new assignments, updating existing ones, and copying assignments from one entity to another, significantly reducing the administrative burden of report distribution.
Business Challenge
In a dynamic organization, access requirements change frequently.
- Onboarding: A new “Finance Manager” responsibility is created and needs access to 50 specific reports.
- Reorganization: A department is split, and report access needs to be cloned and adjusted.
- Cleanup: Removing obsolete assignments for thousands of users is impractical via the UI.
- Migration: Moving from standard Oracle reports to Blitz Reports requires mass-assigning the new versions to the existing user base.
Solution
The Blitz Report Assignment Upload streamlines these tasks:
- Bulk Creation: Assign a list of reports to a list of responsibilities in one go.
- Copy Functionality: “Clone” the assignments from the “US Payables” responsibility to the “UK Payables” responsibility.
- Empty File Mode: Generates a template populated with a list of reports (filtered by category or name), ready for the user to fill in the assignment details.
Technical Architecture
The tool interacts with the Blitz Report security tables.

FAQ
Q: Can I assign a report to all users? A: Yes, by assigning it at the “Site” level (if supported) or by assigning it to a responsibility that all users possess (like “System Administrator” or a custom “All Users” role).
Q: What happens if I upload an assignment that already exists? A: The tool typically ignores duplicates or updates the existing record (e.g., changing the start/end date) depending on the specific logic and columns provided.
Q: Can I use this to revoke access? A: Yes, usually by setting an “End Date” in the upload file or by using a specific “Delete” mode if available.
