Crystal Reports and BW Query- Translation

Hello,
I'm trying to use Crystal reports with BW Query in the Hebrew Language.
When i open the Crystal Reports and connect to SAP I'm putting the Hebrew language key in the logon screen. When the crystal report starts i can see the reports info objects but without the Hebrew description. I can see that in the formula fields the Language key is selected but shouldnt i get the info objects description as well?
Thanks,
David

Hi David,
when I create a new report (using the SAP toolbar) I always get the descriptions for the info objects on the field explorer according to the language I set when I logon on into the SAP system my query resides in. I tried with both english and german language and it works fine. I assume you have installed the hebrew language pack for CR and that the hebrew descriptions are maintained in your SAP system. I also assume that you are talking about creating a report here and not opening an existing one though. In this case the language at creation time defines which descriptions are displayed.
If the above assumptions are valid, then you may face a hebrew language specific problem here. Opening a support case would probably make sense.

Crystal Report and InfoObject with Compound Key

Hi,
I have Characteristic with Compound Key in SAP BW 7.0. This Characteristic use to store the Purchase Order Item Line. The Compound Key is the Purchase Order Document.
So I will have the following fields created for this Characteristic:
Compound Key (Purchase Order Document) 5600001982, Purchase Order Item Line 10
I created a Query for this Characteristic and I have the following as result:
10 ...
20 ...
30 ...
All works fine.
Now I created the Crystal Report from this Query. When I display this Characteristic in Crystal Report, I have the following:
5600001982/10
5600001982/20
5600001982/30
Is this a bug or Crystal not support the Compound Key?
Please advise, thank you.

Can i use crystal reports standard to query ODBC datasources

Post Author: Andy Forrest
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Dear all,
I'm struggling to identify if i can use crystal reports standard to query ODBC data-sources, the only information i can find is the following :-
An intuitive solution that provides basic report design functionality off of PC-based data sources, Crystal Reports XI Standard Edition will provide you with access to data stored in personal data sources.
This gives the impression that i cant access any data other than local data, can anyone give me a definitive answer or point me to somewhere that explains in a little more detail. We are about to purchase some copies but need to ensure crystal reports standard can access ODBC data sources. We are replacing crystal reports 8 standard edition and need to ensure previous reports will still run.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Cheers
Andy

Well, you can certainly connect to ODBC with Crystal XI Developer. I'd be very surprised if you couldn't with the Standard version as well. Not the definitive answer you were looking for, I suppose.

Crystal Reports and SAP BW Connectivity for OLAP

Hello,
Anybody created Crystal reports off SAP BW Infocubes? For some reason I am not able to create or configure BW sever connection. I installed Crystal reports and SAP enhance cd for OLAP.
Thanks
Tom

Hello,
I was able to connect and create Crystal report based on Bex query..no connection problem there. But, reporting directly off infocubes, the server type "SAP Business Information Warehouse"(add server option in OLAP connection Browser) not showing up in list of values.
1. I released Info query for PLE DB for OLAP as per
   user's guide.
2. The manual says you have to configure SAP BW server
   log on? For Bex query(Crystal) all available servers
   automatically available
Thanks

Crystal Reports and SAP BW 7

Hi,
I have been reading these posts and got bit confused.
What do I need to integrate Crystal Reports and SAP BW 7 without BOE. My company has SAP NW license and Crystal Reports Enterprise license and plan to use CR for formatted reporting. Do I still need integration kit into SAP BW in order to create crystal reports on BEx queries and save into BW and view through the SAP NW Portal?
Or am I fine without integration kit?
many thanks

Based on the below Ingo's blog in BI expert we would only need the following:
You must install Crystal Reports Designer on the client
You must install the client components for the BusinessObjects Integration Kit for SAP Solutions
You must install an SAP front end with the SAP NetWeaver BI 7.X Add-On and the SAP BW 3.5 Add-On components on the client when using the connectivity on top of SAP NetWeaver BI
Users need to have the necessary authorizations in the SAP system. For SAP NetWeaver BI, this means that users require the authorizations to view and execute BI queries. There are additional authorizations for SAP ERP access in authorizations class ZSSI that are specific to the connectivity that BusinessObjects provides.
You must release the BI queries that you want to use with Crystal Reports for external access. You can set this property in the BI Query Designer.
So, no mention of BOE.

Crystal Reports with BEx Query using Custom Exit Variable

Hi,
We have BW BEx Query using Customer User Exit variable to derive the Fiscal Week for Last Year (called it VAR2) based on another user input variable Current Fiscal Week (called it VAR1).
VAR2 is derived from VAR1 in CMOD via some codings and thus it DOES NOT have the "Variable is Ready for Input" flag ticked in the BEx. VAR1 is user input variable, so it has "Variable is Ready for Input" flag ticked in the BEx.
When we create a Crystal Reports with the BEx Query using variable VAR2, and when we run it we got an error message saying "Failed to execute query; '[]<java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: No Selection State Support!ZP_MI_LYPUBWEEK>'. Redesign your query or contact the data source maintainer to solve the problem". (note: ZP_MI_LYPUBWEEK is VAR2 in this case).
Could anyone please assist? Surely, CR supports BEx customer user exit variables like the above, right?. I also refer to the forum below as it seems to have a similar issue (except mine with an error message), but it does not provide a solution in it.

Hi Vibhav,
We have the SAP Crystal Reports for Enterprise XI4.0 Version 14.0.0. Not sure if SP0 or other SP, got to check with Basis Team later.
We tried that "mandatory" option and did not work either.
Anyway, SAP has now come back again saying it is something they will fix it in next release/version. We got a phone call from them and a reply below to our OSS.
23.08.2011 - 08:20:49 CET - Info for Customer by SAP
I have raised this issue on the Idea#s Place as an enhancement request
on the below link:
https://cw.sdn.sap.com/cw/ideas/5586
This ER contains the information of including the customer exit
variables in the report without checking the #input for ready# option.
This ER can be considered for being implemented in the future
versions. You can refer to SAP Note: 1515837 - How To: Enhancement

Connection between Crystal Report and SAP ECC

Hi. can you help me please.
I'm testing the connection between Crystal Report and SAP ECC. I tried using the tables,
but by making the links between foreign keys does not bring data. The other way I tried was using an ABAP function module,
but using this way, Crystal will only works like a Presentation Layer because all the work was did it in ABAP;
besides that shows the limitation that I can not pass as input a table.
what is the best practice for reporting on SAP ECC using Crystal Report?
Thanks.

Hi,
Crystal Reports is able to leverage tables, ABAP functions, SAP query and InfoSets.
what is the issue when using the tables ?

Executing Crystal Report using BI Query as datasource in Bobj portal

I have a Crystal report using BI query as the datasource. The BI query contains User Entry variables.
The Crystal report executes as expected except when added to the Bobj portal. From the portal, I can schedule the report and it will execute as correctly. However, if I try to execute without scheduling, I am able to enter the BI restrictions, but then am presented the following error message: "An error has occurred: For input string: "" ".
If I remove all the BI variables from the query, the report will execute from the portal with out scheduling.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
You can set your parameters from CMC. Select the report and set parameters in to the report properties.

Crystal Report and Log4net error 1.2.10

Hi at all,
I have problem on Crystal Report and log4net.
It happens when I deploy the Web applications on the server.
I'm using Visual studio 2013 update 2, and I'm using log4net 2.0.3 (1.2.13) and I'm using CRforVS2013_13_0_10, the last.
When I deploy my application on the target machine, where I have also installed the runtime 64 bit for Crystal Report, I found this error:

But when I'm deploying on Server, 2008 win 64 bit, I found this error.
I've tried everything, I've installed also the runtime 64 bit on the target/server machine.
The problem is that the log4net is not registered in the windows\assembly directory on the target server ? Do I have to use the Gac util to register the log4net dll assembly ?
Please help me, It one day that I'm facing this error, but I'm not able to solve.

Hi Vittorio
Please enter the search string 'log4net crystal net' into the search box in the top right corner. When the results come up, click on the Support Notes link. That will filter for the KBAs that you want to have a look at.

Select multiple items from a list box as values for a parameter of crystal report and Oracle procedure

- I have a Product list box (asp.net) used as multiple selected values for a parameter.
- The Product ID is defined in the Oracle procedure as NUMBER data type.
- In my crystal report, I have a parameter field allow multiple values as p_product_id type as Number. This is the code in my Record Selection Formula for the report:
({?p_product_id}[1] = -1 OR {Procedure_name.product_id} in {p_product_id})
- In C#, this is my code
List<decimal?> productUnit = new List<decimal?>();
int counter = 0;
decimal prod;
for (int i = 0; i < lstProducts.Items.Count; i++)
              if (lstProducts.Items[i].Selected)
                            if (decimal.TryParse(lstProduct.Items[i].Value, out prod))
                                productUnit.Add((decimal?)prod);
                                counter++;
       if (counter == 0)
                   productUnit.Add(-1);
ReportingDAO rDataFactory = new ReportingDAO();
retVal = rDataFactory.GetProductReport(productUnit);
public CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument GetProductReport(List<decimal?> productUnit)
          CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument retVal = new rptProductDownload();
          ReportLogon rptLog = new ReportLogon();
         rptLog.Logon(retVal, "RPT_PRODUCT_DOWNLOAD");
         retVal.SetParameterValue("p_product_id", productUnit);
I keep having the "Value does not fall within the expected range" when I debug. My question is, is the data type I used for procedure/Crystal report/ and C# correct ? I always have problem with the data type. Any help would be
appreciated
Thank you

I read Ingo Hilgefort blogs, but I need in detail steps such as to verify Integration Kit is installed or not and also how to create connections in between SAP ECC and Crystal. What are the Security setups(User IDs and Authorizations) involved?
What is best option for email/broadcasting for Crystal Reports?
Your help is appreciated.

I would suggest you then start with the installation and user guide fr the SAP Integration Kit.
