Display Document from BI Server in Crystal Report

Hi all,
I accessed BI Query from BI server in Crystal Report. We can upload any comments or documents to the query. I want to display the document and comments in Crystal Report from the BI server.
Is it possibel? If possible how can i do this?
Thanks & Regards,
Hemalatha J

As I see there was no response on these issue although it is marked as answered. I'll give a hint for the ones that might want to try this.
One could extract the metadata and documents from the tables names to be found in the tables SDOKLOTAB and SDOKPHTAB (as an example, for InfoObject documentation we have the tables BDSLOIO8, BDSLOIOT8, BDSLOPR8, BDSPHIO8 and BDSPHF8) or one could export the metadata from the BI repository (though, this is a manual approach).

  • How to config Gmail SMTP server for Crystal Report servers

    Hi Experts,
    My customer is using Gmail. They need to send out email from Gmail account via Crystal Reports Server to do some reports bursting.
    I tried many ways to setup in both CrystalReportJobServer and DestinationJobServer, but just got the following error message.
    [AccountsID (8caa73d5-fd2d-469d-8ef2-4d8bd277dc20)]. login error. [[CrystalEnterprise.Smtp] ([1]/[1])]: [SMTP Server does not support authentication. Return code: [SMTP 502 - Command not implemented.].] (FBE60013)
    User name and password are correct. It seems it just cannot get authentication.
    Anyone can help? Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Christina

    Hello,
    Sebastian is right. BO doesn't support SSL for email.
    However, there is a workaround by using a program sTunnel which redirects a default connection to a SSL connection.
    Have a look at the note 1611420 which explains on how to do it.
    (https://bosap-support.wdf.sap.corp/sap/support/notes/1611420)
    This will not be supported by BO of course but feel free to test it

  • Cannot load report from server in Crystal Reports 2013 Viewer

    Hello,
    I am having trouble opening a report that is hosted on a Crystal Reports Server (2013) from the Crystal Viewer.  I've created and uploaded the reports using the report designer (version 2013).  The reports have been uploaded using the "Save As -> Enterprise" to save to my enterprise server.  This part works fine.  I then navigated to the Crystal Reports Viewer to open my report (that I just uploaded w/ the designer) from the server.  Depending on the report, one of two things happens:
    1.) I get a loading bar at the bottom right of the screen that says "Operation in progress . . ." followed by an error message:
    Unable to Refresh Report
    A problem occurred while refreshing on the server. The report may not be configured properly for refresh.
    Please contact your server administrator. (me)
    2.) I get a loading bar at the bottom right of the screen that says "Refreshing <file name of the report> (<server name>)" followed by... nothing.  The loading bar goes away and nothing happens.  It goes back to the screen that shows when the application first loads (blank canvas).
    I've taken some basic troubleshooting steps to try and rule out any potential issues that came to mind, but I've not been successful.
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

  • Not Displaying "Net Sales" key figure in Crystal Report

    Hi All,
    I have made one Info cube (with Characteristics -Product, Region and Customer and Key Figure - Net Sales) from Flat File.
    I want to make crystal report on this. For that i have connected this infocube in crystal Reports via OLAP Connectivity. I am getting all the characterisitc in Field Explorer and one more Field "Measure" in which two field is displayed:
    - Measures, Level 0
    - Measures, Level 0 (long)
    Now i have dragged all the characterisitcs in detail section with Measure, Level 0(long). While i am viewing the preview of this, i am not getting value of that line item.

  • Conversion from VS2003 to VS2005 Crystal Report View is not compatible

    I am trying to migrate an application from VS2003 to VS2005.  I am trying to run it locally, using the localhost method.  I am getting a parser error: The base class includes the field u2018CrystalReportViewer1u2019 but itu2019s type (CrystalDecisionsWeb.CrystalReportViewer) is not compatible with the type of control (CrystalDecisions.Web.CrystalReportViewer)
    I have a tried a number of solutions, including removing and then readding Crystal Report references (picking the 10.2.3600 ones).
    I also created a websetup project, trying either the windows installer and the merge modules.  Those both gave me the error "The setup requires Internet Information Server 4.0 or higher and Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 or higher.  This setup cannot be installe don Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows ME.  Please install Internet Information Server and run this setup again." so I guess I don't understand how localhost works, but I know it's not a true web server.
    I also followed a post to delete the assembly information that was in my web.config, which was      <add assembly="CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, Version=9.1.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304"/><add assembly="CrystalDecisions.ReportSource, Version=9.1.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304"/><add assembly="CrystalDecisions.Shared, Version=9.1.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304"/><add assembly="CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=9.1.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304"/>
    and expected it to be readded when I re-added my references and rebuilt but there is now just an empty <assemblies></assemblies> tag.
    Note that I have VS2003, VS2005 and VS2008 all installed on my computer as we have application in various stages of conversions.  I think I just downloaded SP1 for Crystal Reports for VS2005 but it doesn't specify when I do Help-About in VS so maybe I didn't.
    I have spent so many countless hours and only just found this forum buried under the rather confusing SAP website.
    Thank you SO much for any help,
    Penny

    removing all of the references and adding the 10.2 references is a good start.  the problem is most likely that you still have a 9.1.5000 reference to CrystalDecisions.Web in the HTML source of your web form with a viewer control on it.  Easiest way to upgrade that is to delete the viewer control and drag a new one on from the toolbox.  the drag and drop of the viewer control is what will populate your "add assembly" tags.

  • Programmatically adding a Word Document or PDF to a crystal report

    I am using Crystal XI for windows.  I have a VB.Net windows application that I am trying to insert a Word Document and/or PDF into.  I want to programmatically be able to add any file(s) to a crystal report.  Is there any sample code or guidance that can show me how to programmically add a file to a report?
    In the user interface, the user can click on unlimited number of PDFs, Word Documents... to insert into a Crystal Report.  Is this possible?   If so, please show steps and some sample code how to do this.
    Kind Regards,
    Jeff

    In this example, the ReportAppFactory gets initialized with the instance from the session object... If I am doing this in windows (not a web application), how would this change it if this is a windows application with no session object?
    I am connecting against an  ADO.Net (XML) file on the same computer - no connection information required... I just want to open the report file, SetDataSource to a dataset ...then do the other stuff in the example.  I think after I get past connecting to the data and opening the report, the rest of working with sections and adding ole objects I can get from the examples.  All of the sample code that I found are web based and don't show how to connect if you are windows based - not over a web page.
    I am not using a CMS or anything web / network based... I just want to connect to a local XML file that was generated from Visual Studio .Net 2005.   The example below is one of the Crystal Samples... they are all web based samples.  ...I am looking for a windows based sample to see how to connect and open a report file.

  • Server error in printing in server using crystal report 2008 with VS2008

    Hi,
    We are using Crystal report 2008 in VS 2008. Everything working fine in local but when we deployed it in the server we are getting the below while print the report.
    "An error occurred on the server. Printing will be stopped. Would you like to view the error information"
    Anyhow the report is printing but I don't know why this error is occur and how to stop this. I had installed the CR runtime in the server. I dont know what is going wrong. The same we tested locally in a non crystal report installed PC.
    Please help me to get rid out of this error.
    Thanks
    Natraj

    Soemthing strange going on here.
    Typically this Integrated vs Classic is an issue with images where Classic uses web.config tags between <system.web><httpHandlers><u2026 crystalimagehandler../></httphandlers></system.web>
    Integrated uses tags between <system.webserver>u2026<handlers><..crystalimagehandler/></handlers></system.webserver>
    Not sure why this would affect printing.  Do you have tags that specifying where to download the printcontrol from?  On the other hand, I would think that if images had anything to do with it, then you'd get red Xs when viewing.  As far as I know, the printcontrol.cab doesnu2019t need to be specified in the <system.webserver> tags.
    This one may be best resolved over the phone. Phone support can be obtained here:

  • Displaying a user logo in a Crystal Report dynamically at run time

    Using Visual Studio 2010, CR for VS 2010 on a Win 7 64 bit dev machine.  The software app that I'm creating is a full Windows application (not for the web).  Compiling my app for .NET 4.0.
    Actually, in January, 2012, we purchased the CR 2011 full version and subsequently installed this version for use within the development environment (VS 2010).  References that I use show (for example) CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine version 13.0.2.
    I have hundreds of hours of experience using Crystal Reports within VB, dating back to VB 6 and CR 8.5.  In a software app that I am currently writing, (where I am using VB in VS 2010 and CR 13.0.2), the Graphic Location formula within a picture "placeholder" is not working.  I am using a parameter called pUserLogo to set the path to the graphic location at runtime, but to no avail.  The picture that I'm using as a placeholder is not changing at runtime.
    I have scoured the internet for solutions to this problem.  I have also attempted to upgrade both the CR for VS 2010 (a.k.a. CR developer version) as well as the CR runtimes (both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions), but this has not helped.  The picture is never replaced at runtime while working within the IDE (i.e. running the app from VS, nor after compiling and then running as a full-blown application).  I have also tested this on another development machine.
    I eventually gave up trying to use the Graphic Location formula method, and instead went with a method that uses a DataSet within a DataTable to set the image (of an image column) as posted online.  This method actually works within the IDE.  However, if I then install my app to another PC (Win 7 64 bit as well), the CR crashes the app.  After extensive searching online, I found that referencing a DataSet in VS 2010 inside a CR, led to many other issues, such as having to use the 'useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy=true' statement in app.config.
    Further, I read that using a DataSet within CR in VS 2010 meant that you had to compile for .NET 3.5, rather than 4.0.
    Eventually, I created restore points on both PC's and then upgraded everything to 13.0.6.  But this did not help either method.
    All I am trying to do is 1) let the user of my app select an image before the report is created, and then 2) display that image on the report.  This particular report doesn't even need to reference any database, as all of the numbers that I'm displaying in the report are simply parameters that I update during the report's creation.  It is a very simple, straight-forward report.
    I would be happy to setup a GotoMeeting so that someone at support could see what is happening and could also review the code.  There are many more details, such as what errors I've encountered along the way, and what web sites I've been to in researching these issues, but I will leave that for continued discussion.
    Regards,
    Dominic

    An older discussion on this issue can be found at:
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2548723/unable-to-programically-set-graphic-location-in-crystal-report
    Since I couldn't get this method to work, I then tried the method as described here:
    http://adf.ly/91637/banner/aspalliance.com/1097_Importing_Dynamic_Images_to_the_Crystal_Report_without_Database_Overhead_using_Visual_Studio_2005.all
    The second method, which uses a DataSet within a DataTable as described in the above link, does work, and it correctly displays the image, but only in the IDE.  When tested on a "client" machine, opening the report causes my app to crash, with no exception or error message except for the "...has caused the application to stop working".  Previously, before introducing said DataSet into the report, the report loads and displays fine on my client machine.
    Further research led me to these two threads concerning the usage of the crdb_adoplus.dll which is necessary when using a DataSet in VS 2010 with CR.  It seems that the folder dotnet1 is not accessible, and thus there are workarounds for this issue.  See these two threads, below:
    http://scn.sap.com/thread/1802638
    http://scn.sap.com/thread/1665437
    Again, I followed the recommendations that I needed to set the Startup flag 'useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy=true' in app.config.  However, the workaround where I should target .NET 3.5 instead of .NET 4.0 is not reallly an acceptable option to me (and I don't know if it will work, anyway).
    So my question remains; Can anyone please tell me if A) They have any issues using the "picture placeholder/formula" method for loading a picture at runtime, and/or B) If there is a fix for the DataSet issues apparently inherent in using VS 2010 with a Crystal Report?
    Thanks in advance, for your reply.

  • How to open word document from application server?

    hello ,
    I want to open a word document that is placed on the application server.
    the function module 'ws_execute' works fine for displaying documents placed on ur local file system. But if i want to open from application server, what needs to b done?
    i m referring to the following demo program 'SAPRDEMOOFFICEINTEGRATION'
    is this the correct reference or there is some other way to do the same?
    kindly help.
    Regards,
    Roshani

    Hi Roshani,
              The solution is like this.
    1> Execute - this is the solution to your program. The file is generated and put in the Application Server for the data to be sent by some means to the intended Place.
    2> To Display/View - This is for the person (who runs the program) to view if the output generated is correct or not.
             So to accomplish this use the same internal table for both Open Dataset and Gui download.
    Open dataset puts data onto the Application server and Gui_download puts the data onto the Desktop or Presentation server for the user to see the data thats fetched.
    So use them as directed to achieve the desired output.
    Reward Points.
    Thanks,
    Tej..
