Group by Summary in Crystal Report

Hi,
I am using Item Code Generator (Add-On) to generate items .When I am generating that the item codes will be different but item name will be same for a range of items.Now in the report i want the item name ,qty and total value for that group of (items having same description).It shoul not display item code but only with the common description and qty and value. Can somebody guide me to do this?
Thanks and Regards,
S.G.Sekar

hi Sekar,
1. make a standard Crystal Report.
2. choose the table OITM - Item Master Data.
3. add the ff. fields (ItemName, Onhand)
4. insert Group (OITM.ItemName)
5. Insert group summary
6. view the report

How to implement the Oracle Group by function in Crystal reports?

Hi all,
In SQL, for example we have a group function like:
select district,state, country, continent, sum(no.of people) from world.
Now, How to implement this group function in crystal reports? Please advise.
Thanks in advance..
Regards,
sriram

Hi Vinay,
Thanks for the prompt reply.
In one of our report, we are supposed to perform group by for 14 columns to get sum of 3 columns and there by displaying 17 columns in the report.
When we tried in crystal reports to implement this oracle group by functionality:
1. We created 14 groups from the Insert->Group option.
2. By performing this, we got 14 group sections vertically(one inside the other).
3. Then we created the sum(15th column),sum(16th column), sum(17th column) by Insert->Summary option.
4. We suppresed all the group sections except for the last group.
5. Then, dragged all the groups to the last group section along with the summary fields.
This is how, we tried to acheive the oracle group by function in Crystal reports.
Please advise, whether our approach is right. If not, please suggest the appropriate approach with a bit detailed explanation.
Thanks,
Sriram.

How to add a field object to group header section in crystal report document?

Hi All, I have got two questions mentioned below, please share your inputs. 1)I want to know whether it is possible to add a field object to header section in crystal report document programmatically? I am using crystal runtime for visual studio. I know that using RAS we can do it, but I want to do it using managed library of crystal runtime. Please suggest. 2) I am doing a POC where I am using RAS (unmanaged library) to manipulated crystal report document. Please see code below: var dbTable = _reportDocument.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.Database.Tables[0]; var dbField = dbTable.DataFields.FindField(item.ColumnName, CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.CrFieldDisplayNameTypeEnum.crFieldDisplayNameName, CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.CeLocale.ceLocaleEnglishUS); CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.FieldObject fieldObject = new CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.FieldObject(); fieldObject.DataSourceName = dbField.Name; fieldObject.FieldValueType = dbField.Type; var groupHeaderArea = _reportDocument.ReportClientDocument.ReportDefController.ReportDefinition.GroupHeaderArea[0].Sections[i]; _reportDocument.ReportClientDocument.ReportDefController.ReportObjectController.Add(fieldObject, groupHeaderArea); In above code last line throwing exception : "The report field type is not valid." at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Controllers.ReportObjectControllerClass.Add(ISCRReportObject ReportObject, Section Section, Int32 nIndex) Thanks, Jai

Hi Jaikumar
As per the SCN Rules of engagement, one question per thread please.
Re. your 1st question. Adding a field to a report is considered to be a report creation APIs (RCAPI). Only the RAS SDK has RCAPIs, so you can not use plain jane crystal APIs. For how to with RAS, see the examples here: NET RAS SDK Samples - Business Intelligence (BusinessObjects) - SCN Wiki
Also, consult the Developer Help Files:
Report Application Server .NET SDK Developer Guide
Report Application Server .NET API Guide
Re. your second question, please create a new discussion.

How to remove suppressed items in the group tree from the crystal report print preview screen

I am removing items in report using group selection formula. Although the removed items are not available in the report, they are still available in the group navigation tree on the left pane. Is there a way to overcome this ?

Hi All,
How can i use the below group selection code in record selection.
TotalQuantity := sum({ICIVAL.QUANTITY},{ICIVAL.ITEMNO});
TotalCost := sum({ICIVAL.TRANSCOST},{ICIVAL.ITEMNO});
iIncludeQty := TONUMBER({?INCLUDEQTY});
iIncludeCost := TONUMBER({?INCLUDECOST});
bIncludeQty := FALSE;
bIncludeCost := FALSE;
SELECT iIncludeQty
    CASE 0:
        bIncludeQty := TRUE
    CASE 1:
        If TotalQuantity > 0 THEN
            bIncludeQty := TRUE
    CASE 2:
        If TotalQuantity = 0 Then
            bIncludeQty := TRUE
    CASE 3:
        If TotalQuantity < 0 THEN
            bIncludeQty := TRUE
    CASE 4:
        If TotalQuantity <> 0 THEN
            bIncludeQty := TRUE

        If TotalCost = 0 Then
            bIncludeCost := TRUE
    CASE 3:
        If TotalCost < 0 THEN
            bIncludeCost := TRUE

Balance forward in Crystal Report

Hi All Expert,
I have one requirement which will need to bring down the balance forward value in grouping level.
Example:
I have a report design which will group be Date and have three summary total fields (Balance Forward, Current Total, Total Amount)
Date                               Balance Forward                  Current Total                Total Amount
1 Jan                              100                                        100                               200
2 Jan                              200                                        300                               500
3 Jan                              500                                        100                               600
I wish to bring down the total amount from one date to another date on the date grouping level. I tried to use the previous function in Crystal Report formula but it was unable to sum it out.
Appreciated your kind advice how can do this in Crystal Report.
TQ.
Regards,
CK

Hi Carl,
Thanks for your reply. Actually the thread you refering was almost similiar to my problem. In fact, mine problem was not able to bring down the Balance Forward amount in the grouping level.
Let me give you some example. I have 5 fields in my report which are:
Date - Field from database
User - Filed From database
Balance Forward (BF) - Calculation in formula (Previous date CF display as next date BF)
Current Amount (CA)- Field from database
Carry Forward (CF) - Calculation in formula (BF+CA=CF)
When drag out those fields from database into the CR without perform any group, it will shows something as below in the details section.
Date User BF CA CF
1/1   A      0 50 50
1/1   B      0 100 100
2/1   A      50 50 100
2/1   B      100 50 150
When i perform a group on date, it should shows in the design layout as below:
Date BF CA CF
1/1   0 150 150
2/1   150 100 250
On date 1/1, my BF will be 0 for the first day and CF will be 150 with the formula calculation as SUM(BF+CF). For date 2/1, i will required to carry down this 150 (previous date 1/1 CF) down to the date 2/1 BF and following by the next date 3/1.
I try to use the previous(group.fields) in the formula, but it will shows me "No any previous or next value to be retrieve". In fact, i could use the previous(table.fields) function and place on the details section.
Appreciated you could advise how to retrieve my SUM(CF) value and display on the next grouping date section in Crystal Report.
Thanks.

Cannot Open Crystal Report

Dear All,
We set crystal report group and assign all crystal report for each group. When they try to run the report, there's an error message: "you're not authorize to view or print this report".
How do we solve this problem?
Thanks and Regards,

Dear Gordon,
I've been through those process, create user group, assign users to the group and assign CR report to the group.
Btw, user type is normal user not super user.

Using Crystal Report to create reports from ABAP

Hello,
We are currently using Jetform as the designer for our outputs like Invoice, Order confirmation, etc.....
We would like to switch to Crystal instead, but don't really know where to start from.
- We already have crystal on our B/W instance
- The additional need for Crystal is in R/3, and would be triggered trough ABAPs.
What I am looking for. I guess, is the equivalent to when:
we call up smartforms from ABAP using the generated function modules
we call up sapscript from ABAP using the predefine function call (write_form open_form close_form, etc)
we call up Jetform using special control code along with the data, sent to a jetform configured printer
=> What kind of call would we then make to send data to Crystal Reports place holder and print them?
=> What kind basis set-up is needed to have to comunication between Crystal and SAP established?
Thank you in advance for yours hints

Hi,
You will likely be able to access the tables directly using the Opensql driver using Crystal Reports. I don't understand why you are assuming that an Infoset is necessary. Can you point me to the documentation that states that an Infoset is necessary?
In any case, if you want to create an Infoset, this is done in SQ02. You need to make sure that you belong to a user group in order for Crystal Report to see the infoset.

InfoSet fields not listed in Crystal Report Creation Wizard

Hello Experts,
We successfully build few reports using in Crystal Reports 2008 using SAP Integration Kit and InfoSets from ECC 6. But we run in some problems with InfoSet MIRO_PO as InfoSet's fields which are not included into Field Groups are listed in Crystal Report Creation Wizard as available fields. It looks like it may be related to Field Groups/Data Fields definition in Change InfoSet transaction SQ02.
Did somebody run into similar problems? Is it mandatory to include all required fields into InfoSets' query groups?
I can't find related documentation.
Thank you in advance,
Sergey Vlasov

Hi Sergey,
I'm having the same problem, i don't understand your solution very well, can you explain a little bit more?

Crystal Reports and Windows Active Directory

Hi,
I am trying to authenticate using the Windows Active Directory. I have created a test group in the Active directory and added myself as a member to that group. On the Crystal reports server side, I have enabled the Windows Active Directory. I can see the group that I created on the Active Directory. But I do not see any users. I have a Java infoview and I changed the web.xml file. I changed the authentication parameter to secWinAD. But does anyone know how to restart the web application server? I restarted the service Intelligent Agent. But when I login using my user id and password it still gives me the same error:
Account Information Not Recognized: Enterprise authentication could not log you on. Please make sure your logon information is correct. (FWB 00008)
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Infoview doesn't even need to be restarted.
You said "I have a Java infoview and I changed the web.xml file" in your original post
If you have .net IIS then it would be a web.config file that needs to be changed. IIS will pick up the changes as soon as you save the file and open an infoview logon page. you may also opt to set authentication.visible to true so users will have the ability to select AD when logging in.

Sub report group tree in main report Using crystal report 12

Hi experts,
    I have a strange requirement like, same data needs to be grouped two different ways in a same report. Like
Store1:
    Summary of sales on each item chart
Store2:
    Summary of sales on each item chart
.....it goes like this
Department1(multiple stores)
      summary of sale on each item chart - store1
      summary of sale on each item chart - store2
     --........ it goes
Department2
      summary of sale on each item chart - store3
--........ it goes
   Its in single report, the first part is grouped only with store and in second part the store is under department. How to do this in same report?
    I achieved this by creating a sub report to display the first part of data and in the main report sup report data plus the second part of data will be displayed. And its working well but now the problem is the group tree, I'm not able to see the sub report group tree in the main report.
   How to get the sub report group tree in the main report, Or is there any other better way is there so i can get both the data as well the group tree. Please help me to solve this. CryCryCry
I'm using crystal report 2008(installed separately) with Visual Studio2008 (.Net3.5)
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Thanks for the reply.
    Yea both data source are same(Datasource is SQL Stored Procedure). I cant use like that, because my client needs the group tree also. In case if there is no group tree, we can create one more group and supress it conditionaly. But here the problem is there is no way to suppress any of the group item in group tree as we can do it in the detail section.
    So please me with some different ways and also , please clarrify the following doubts
1. Can we supress one or more items in the group tree.
2. Can we get the sub report group tree in main report(Everything is working when i used the sub reports except the group tree). So I'm trying for different ways to do, but none is helping me
Please help me

Report with Summary & Detail - Exporting to PDF in Crystal Report

Hi,
I am using Crystal Reports XI (release 2). I am trying out a report with Summary and Detail sections.
Requirement:
1.     Report should display both Summary and Detail Sections
2.     Summary section should be displayed first followed by Detail Section
3.     A field in summary section should have a hyperlink to Detail Section
4.     On clicking the hyperlink the user should be navigated to the corresponding detail record
5.     User should be able to download the whole report as a single PDF (i.e., both summary and detail together)
Implementation in Crystal Report:
This feature could be implemented using
a.     Linked On Demand Sub report
b.     Using Hide (Drill down ok) option
c.     Hyperlinks
Issue Faced:
I used the on demand sub report option. When i clicked on the sub report (hyperlink), the details get displayed. But the details get displayed in separate viewer and hence when we export to PDF both summary and detail are not getting exported together. User has to select each detail report and export to PDF. Is this a limitation in CR XI? - proprietary Crystal Report features, such as drill-down and on-demand subreports, are supported only in the native Crystal Report format. These special features are ignored when exporting a report to a non-Crystal format like pdf.
Is there any workaround for exporting both the summary and detail (in subreport) as a single PDF file?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Viji.

Hi
Hyperlink would not be a solution to what you are asking for.
If you want to see the records related to a particular employee id by clicking on emp id, you can try the below:
- Apply a group on employee id on the main report.
- Insert a subreport with the required fields and place it on the Employee id Group header. You can put a name of the subreport as "Check Employee details" or something else as per requirement and make it a on demand subreport.
- Link the subreport on Employee id.
Hope this helps!!!

How to hide Group Tree in Crystal Report Server.

Hi all visitors
i have created one crystal report and my report use group to summary the amount of each day.

After that i upload my report to crystal report server, when i viewed my report and when i click on Group Tree, it will show the list of group (group date in crystal report) and it also can click. I don't want to show the Group Tree in Crystal Report Server.
Anybody know how to hide group tree in crystal report server?
Best Regards,

Are you talking custom application, or infoview? If it is custom app, you would have to look at the setToolPanelViewType method. if its infoview, no direct way to change this that i know of.
