Blitz Report Category Assignments - Case Study & Technical Analysis
Executive Summary
Blitz Report Category Assignments is a maintenance report used to organize reports into logical groupings (Categories). Categories in Blitz Report (e.g., “Finance”, “Supply Chain”, “HR”) help users filter and find reports easily. This report lists which reports are assigned to which categories.
Business Challenge
- Organization: As the library of reports grows into the hundreds or thousands, a flat list becomes unmanageable.
- Standardization: Ensuring that all “Month End” reports are consistently tagged for easy retrieval during the close process.
- Audit: Verifying that sensitive reports are not miscategorized (e.g., a “Payroll” report hidden in a “General” category).
Solution
This report provides a simple listing of report-to-category mappings. It allows administrators to:
- Review Categorization: Quickly scan the list to ensure reports are in the right place.
- Identify Uncategorized Reports: (By comparing with a full report list) find reports that have no category assigned.
- Bulk Analysis: Export to Excel to plan a re-organization of the report library.
Technical Architecture
The report joins the report definition with the category assignment table.
Key Tables
XXEN_REPORTS_V: The report definitions.XXEN_REPORT_CATEGORIES_V: The list of available categories.XXEN_REPORT_CATEGORY_ASSIGNS: The intersection table linking reports to categories.
Logic
The query is a straightforward join to list the Report Name alongside its assigned Category Name.
Parameters
- Category: Filter by a specific category name to see all reports within it.
Oracle E-Business Suite Reporting Library
We provide an open source Oracle EBS SQLs as a part of operational and project implementation support toolkits for rapid Excel reports generation.
Blitz Report™ is based on Oracle EBS forms technology, and hence requires minimal training. There are no data or performance limitations since the output files are created directly from the database without going through intermediate file formats such as XML.
Blitz Report can be used as BI Publisher and Oracle Discoverer replacement tool. Standard Oracle BI Publisher and Discoverer reports can also be imported into Blitz Report for immediate output to Excel. Typically, reports can be created and version tracked within hours instead of days. The concurrent request output automatically opens upon completion without the need for re-formatting.
The Filters, Columns, Rows and Values fields are used to create and deliver the data in pivot table format with full drill down to details.

The Excel template upload functionality in Blitz Report allows users to create their own layouts by uploading an Excel template with additional sheets and charts, automatically refreshed when the report runs again. This allows to create custom dashboards and more advanced visualizations of report data.

You can download and use Blitz Report free of charge for your first 30 reports.
The installation and implementation process usually takes less than 1 hour; you can refer to our installation and user guides for specific details.
