Crystal Report Java Reporting Component Query

Hi,
If I am using the Crystal Report Java Reporting Component, do I need any other Crystal Report software to be installed during run time?
Thanks.

Hi Ron,
the desired guides can be found here:
http://help.sap.com/javadocs/cr/xir2/index.html
http://devlibrary.businessobjects.com/businessobjectsxi/en/en/JRC_SDK/default.htm
The reason why you might not find the guide is as of Crystal Reports 2008 the JRC was integrated into the Crystal Reports for Ecplise package and is not availble separately anymore. See also the What' new-guide of Crystal Reports 2008 here:

Hi Prabhakar,
There is a separate forum for Java Reporting Component (JRC) SDK.
Post your question in Java SDK forum.
[SAP Crystal Reports, version for Eclipse;
That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there. Also, all SDK queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.

How to bulid a Crystal report based on Bex query as source

Hi,
I have requirment where the end user wants the query in Crystal.I built a Bex query in Bex query designer.I would like to know how to create crystal report based onthe Bex query.
Thanks,

Hi
The Crystal Reports are integrated with BW such that the query built in BW can be used to bulit Crystal Reports on them.
After launching the Crystal Reports, you will have and option : "Open reprt from BW" whcih will help you in opening the BW Queries and create Crystal Reports.
Also in the Menu there is an optin SAP-->Create New Report from a Query

Crystal reports - Create Report from SAP Bex Query

I have installed the Crystal reports 2008 for a trial period and the sap integration kit. I have created a new report from a sap query and I am trying to format the report. I would like the columns headings be similar to Bex query - Current Month Jan 2009 which includes the selection parameter of month. I have tried with no sucess. Any help will be appreciated

Ingo
in crystal reports the variables are available in the field explorer. However when I drag the date selection to the report (in design mode) i get the foloowing ?[0I_CALMO], but when I execute the report I don't get any values. I also tried to create a formula but could not access the parameter for month year. Is there documentation on how to do this?
Thanks for your help.

Barcode not displaying/printing in Crystal Report java viewer

We have written a Crystal report (in Developer XI release 2 with service pack 4 installed) which produces barcode labels. The barcodes are Code 39 barcodes and are generated by printing the string \*data_field\* in a Code 39 barcode font. The asterisk is the character used for the Code 39 start/stop sequence in the barcode font.
In Developer everything works fine and prints out and scans correctly. When we make the report available to our end users in the Crystal Reports java viewer all we get where the barcode should appear is white space on screen or when we print. (The rest of the report behaves correctly).
We have tried a few things and have found that if both asterisks or the starting or ending asterisk is left in a different font (i.e. not the barcode font) then the rest of the string displays and prints in the barcode font. (unfortunately without bot asterisks you don't get a scanable barcode).
Has anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this?
(In case it might be relevant the barcode font we are using is this one: http://www.barcodesinc.com/free-barcode-font/)
Thanks
Trevor

Hello Ludek,
                I have found that the issue is caused by the bold attributes of my field.
                You can try the following and you should encounter the same issue:
                                - Create a Report
                                - Create a formula with many characters
                                - Put you field in Times New Roman bold 8.
                The following Font Size in Times New Roman are in issue: 5 u2013 8 u2013 11- 14
                The following Font Size in Arial are in issue: 8 u2013 11 u2013 12 u2013 14
Thank you.

Crystal Reports 10 Error "Unknown Query Engine Error"

Hi guys,
after creating reports with crystal reports 2008 fails,because there's no 64-bit runtime version i try to develope my reports now with Crystal Reports 10 (ships with Visual Studio 2008).
I've minimized the complexity to a minimum - a simple console application without SharePoint or something like that. Now i'm getting the error:
"Unknown Query Engine Error"
when i try to set the DataSource for my report. Of course i created a new report file with CR10 to avoid compatibility issues. Every Users has full permissions on the file system...
I'm using the follwing Code Snippets, which are working fine for Crystal 2008 and don't threw an error while compiling in CR10.

            DataColumn title = new DataColumn("Title");
            title.DataType = Type.GetType("System.String");
            t.Columns.Add(title);
            ds.Tables.Add(t);
            DataRow drDataRow;
            drDataRow = t.NewRow();
            drDataRow["Title"] = "My Title";
            t.Rows.Add(drDataRow);
            * //Error is thrown here*
            report.SetDataSource(ds);
            string filename = "C:\\report.pdf";
            report.ExportToDisk(CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat,
                 new System.IO.FileInfo(filename).ToString());
Does anyone have an advice: Do i miss a patch or hotfix? These problem frustrates me already, because i thought setting a datasource couldn't be such a problem...
Thanks in Advance,
Christian

Resolution:
This Version of Crystal Reports (Visual Studio 2008 .Net) doesn't want the crdb_adoplus.dll in the GAC. After i uninstall the *.dll the Console Application run without problems. For SharePoint you have to create a custom CAS which should look like this:
<CodeGroup
                              class="UnionCodeGroup"
                              version="1"
                              PermissionSetName="FullTrust"
                              Name="Crystal_Strong_Name"
                              Description="This code group grants code signed with the Crystal Reports strong name full trust. ">
                            <IMembershipCondition class="StrongNameMembershipCondition"
                                                  version="1"

Using hyperlinks in Java Report Viewer

Hello,
I want to use the hyperlink function in Java Report Viewer Component.
In the Crystel Reports Developer Page Preview, I can click on a hyperlink (for example to a website), and a browser will open.
The same on the Crystal Report Viewer 2008. The same on Crystal Report Web Viewer.
But it doesn`t work with the Java Report Viewer Component. A click on the hyperlink has no action. Is there a possibility to activate this function, or is it impossible with the java report viewer component.
I use Crystal Reports XI.
Thanks in advance,

Bold a single row in a Report based on SQL Query

Should be easy? So, how do I bold a single row in a report based on SQL query without creating a new template or writing Java for the page? What is the Tabular Form Element "Element Attributes" field for? Or what am I supposed to put in there to make it do anything?

One way to do this is to add a hidden column to your report which contains the formatting value, for example:
select empno
, ename
, sal
, decode(empno,1,'font-weight:bold','font-weight:normal') style
from emp
Hide the STYLE column.
Then you can use this column for each column in Column Formatting > HTML expression in this way:
<span style="#STYLE#">#SAL#</span>
Unfortunately you have to do this for each colum you want to appear bold.
good luck,
Dirk Dral

Crystal report - sub report

Hi everyone
Can anybody help me with crystal report - sub report problem as i am new to crystal report.
I have created two reports"mainreport" and "subreport" using crysta report XI with the same query for both reports using stored procedure. I set the links for both reports at design time and its works fine there. then i added those two reports into my .net application and now i want to set the paramaters and also want to set the datasource programatically with same query but with two different functions which returns datatable. I am using .visual studio 2008 (.net 3.5) and sql 2005 as back end.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks In Advance
Regards,
Shruti Batra

Only CR 2008 (12.x) and CR 10.5 (bundles with .NET 2008) is supported with .NET 2008. And while running reports created in CR XI with CR 10.5 may work, you are taking your chances with parameterized reports as there have been a lot of changes in the parameter behavior between CR 10 and CR XI. Thus, my recommendation would be to upgrade to CR 2008, ensuring your version is 12.3.0.601.
Re. programming questions. Start with sample apps:
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsfor.NETSDK+Samples
See the [Crystal Reports For Visual Studio 2005 Walkthroughs|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/2081b4d9-6864-2b10-f49d-918baefc7a23&overridelayout=true]. It will apply to CR 2008 and VS 2008.

Error while creating report from BW SAP Query

Hi
While creating a report from BW SAP Query, I get the following error.
"An error occured while creating a report template.No error"
On opening the same query in BEx Analyser, i can see the fields and output.
Help me on this issue.
Thanks
Eswari.

Hello Garett,
I've the same problem and have tried now to get the data with MDX-Query. The error message below appears:
'No RFC-authorization for function group /Crystal/MDX for User ...'
So it seems to be a authorization problem. Which special authorization must be assigned to Crystal users in SAP BI?
Thank you for your help.

Crystal XI causing reports to take 20+ minutes to open

We use Crystal Reports with TIER (totally integrated electronic record). Our computer system is part of a state network. Our TIER programmer lives in another city. He creates Crystal reports from his location and we create them here at our facility also. Last week his local server (on the state network) was replaced. The server in question is not used by us -- our database is located on another server and our reports are also located elsewhere. Network staff said we should see no impact at all since we do not use that server. When they took down his local server (they were switching from a novell server to a microsoft server) -- we suddenly developed a problem opening reports. They would open, but only after 20 minutes or longer. After much troubleshooting we were able to figure out that any reports the programmer did were the problem. Any reports created here were opening fine. Once opened, all reports ran fine and queried the database quickly as usual. There is no question about how he creates reports versus how we do -- he taught us and has started reports here that do work. We finally got the network guys to start up the old server in the other city. As soon as they did, our reports worked correctly again. We have gotten them to agree to leave that server up while we work this out. It seems Crystal is automatically tying to the original user's originating server for some reason. I can't find any place in Crystal to change this. I opened several reports, re-saved them from here but it didn't change anything. I also went in through Crystal and Set Datasource Location (updated each field in report), but it didn't help. I think the reason that isn't working is because there isn't anything wrong with the connection to the database itself. For whatever reason it is like Crystal is searching for that old server for 20 minutes, finally decides to move on and then the report opens (sorry, not a very technical description). We use a ton of reports and right now my only option is to rebuild from scratch or ensure the old server is left up and running indefinitely. Does anyone have any idea how to break the apparent automatic connection to that old server?

You are making me think it might be a connection configuration or local machine space/frag issue. Both of these are easy to rule out - does your machine have an automatic maintenance policy (sweep for virus, defragment hard drives, and clean out junk files)? Can your network techs do a trace test to see if there are bottlenecks in the connection?
I still think you will want to use the data-base expert and find out what the default table bindings are. You would not need to rebuild the reports, just re-configure the tables and links. As long as the tables have the same fields and field names on the different source tables you will be fine.
How big are the report templates? (multiple pages, intense graphic loads with charts or formatting, heavy calculations performed on the report level...). Are they stored remotely or on the local workstation? Remote connections can take a while to get the report to the local machine if not properly configured (even if known to be connected and clear).
The slow too open reports are still indicative of bad links. You don't have to rebuild the reports, just re point the default source tables.

How to convert Crystal 8.5 Reports that use queries to Crystal XI reports

We were using the following:
Crystal Reports version 8.5
Crystal SQL Designer 8.0.0.0
CRW32 8.0.0.8
We have now migrated to Crystal XI.
Most of our reports use queries created in the Crystal SQL Designer.
This is the message we receive when I open a report in Crystal XI that uses a query:
Reports based on Crystal Dictionary or Crystal Query are no longer supported. Please change these reports to use Business Views.
How do I convert a Crystal report that uses a query to use a Business View?
Thanks,
Mac Bradley

Hi Mac,
There is a Database Migration Wizard that was available but the link is broken now. I'm tracking down where we can get it from. Check your CD, it may be on the disk.
Currently it's only shipped with our Enterprise Product because it converts Queries to Business Views and Views to Command Objects.
If you have Enterprise Available you should have a link off the Start Menu.
Back up your reports first....
Thank you
Don
