The first common reason for report failures is related to the report itself. If a report is too “heavy,” meaning it contains an excessive amount of data or complex calculations, it may fail to open or export properly.
To address this issue, we’ve made significant improvements in how data is stored and calculated within our analytics system. Most issues associated with report size and complexity have been resolved.
If you encounter consistent failures due to report size, we recommend opening a support ticket. Our developers will investigate and attempt to improve performance.
Oracle System Overload:
The second reason for report failures is related to Oracle system overload. Unfortunately, we were unable to receive a fix from Oracle for this issue.
However, we’ve implemented an alert system on our end to mitigate the impact of this bug. Here’s how it works:
Whenever an Oracle system time-out occurs, it is automatically and immediately reported to our 24X7 Hub.
Our internal procedure includes a quick restart of a specific component (not a full system restart).
As a result, reports should be back to running within half an hour without requiring you to report the incident.
If you encounter a time-out that persists beyond half an hour, please open a support ticket so that we can investigate further.
Oracle Bug When Running Reports from Another Report:
Some users have experienced time-outs when running a report that utilizes another report as a filter. This issue occurs due to an Oracle bug.
Despite multiple attempts on Oracle’s side to address this bug, it persists. We suggest trying to build the report in a different way, for example, by using the term “IN” instead of “NOT IN.”
