How to use drill down option in Crystal Report

Dear all,
I want to know how to use drill down option in Crystal report 2008. In below i have explained my screnario
For example
My scenario is. In crystal report I have Purchase order like PO101,PO102. Each purchase order have 5 line items. If i drill down each purchase order it should display line item in crystal report.
Regards,
Baskaran.

hi,
Create a Group on 'Purchase order'.
Group Expert -> Select the Purchase Order and Click the arrow button such that it appears right side. Click ok.
GH1 is inserted.
Your detail section should include 'Line items' fields.
Right Click 'Detail' section on left hand side, Click 'Hide (Drill down Ok)'.
Now you will see only 'Purchase order's in Group Headers.
Now when you click on a particular order, you will see respective line items.
Regards,
Vamsee

How to use drill down ability in ALV report.

Hi All,
I have a ALV report and now i want to add drill down functionality in this ALV report.
See the requirement below.
The Document Number, aka Accounting Document Number (BELNR) of each row will take the user to the appropriate document to edit as follows:
For Parked documents:-
If VBKPF-AWTYP (Reference Procedure) = RMRP, then the drilldown functionality should be to MIR4 using the Object ID in VBKPF- AWKEY.    In this scenario the Object ID represents a Invoice Document Number, not an Accounting Document Number. Not the Object ID is a combination of Invoice Document Number and Fiscal Year
If VBKPF-AWTYP = Any other value, then the drilldown functionality should be to FBV2 using the Object ID in VBKPF-AWKEY. In this scenario the Object ID represents a true Accounting Document Number. Note the Object ID is a combination of Company Code (VBKPF-BUKRS), Accounting Document Number (VBKPF-BELNR) and Fiscal Year (VBKPF-GJAHR)
For Posted, not Cleared documents:-
Drilldown ability should be to FB02.   The combination of Company Code (BSIK-BUKRS), Accounting Document Number (BSIK-BELNR) and Fiscal Year (BSIK-GJAHR) will be used to open/drilldown to the correct document in FB02.
For Cleared documents:-
Drilldown ability should be to FB03.   The combination of Company Code (BSIK-BUKRS), Accounting Document Number (BSIK-BELNR) and Fiscal Year (BSIK-GJAHR) will be used to open/drilldown to the correct document in FB03.
Its very urgent, pls help on this.
Thanks!

Hi Vipin,
Please look at the reference code.
You need to use the FM 'REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET' and in the user command event u need to pass the name of the form that u need to write.

[Forum FAQ] How to use parameter to control the Expand/Collapse drill-down options in SSRS report?

In SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS), drill-down is an action we can apply to any report item to hide and show other report items. They all are ways that we can organize and display data to help our users understand our report better. In this article,
we are talking about how to use parameter to control the Expand/Collapse drill-down options in SSRS report.
Consider that the report has a dataset (dsSales) with following fields: SalesTerritoryGroup, SalesTerritoryCountry, CalendarYear, SalesAmount.
1. The report has the following group settings:
Parent Group: SalesTerritoryGroup
Child Group: SalesTerritoryCountry
  Child Group: CalendarYear
   Details: SalesAmount
2. Add three parameters in the report:
GroupExpand:
Available Values: “Specify values”
Label: Yes           Value: Yes
Label: No            Value: No
Default Values: “Specify values”
Value: Yes
CountryExpand:
Available Values: “Specify values”
Label: Yes           Value: =IIF(Parameters!GroupExpand.Value="No",Nothing,"Yes")
Label: No            Value: No
Default Values: “Specify values”
Value: =IIF(Parameters!GroupExpand.Value="No","No","Yes")
YearExpand:
Available Values: “Specify values”
Label: Yes
Value: =IIF(Parameters!GroupExpand.Value="No" or Parameters!CountryExpand.Value="No",Nothing,"Yes")
Label: No            Value: No
Default Values: “Specify values”
Value: =IIF(Parameters!GroupExpand.Value="No" or Parameters!CountryExpand.Value="No","No","Yes")
3. Right click SalesTerritoryCountry icon in the Row Groups dialog box, select Group Properties.
4. Click Visibility in the left pane. Select “Show or hide based on an expression” and type with following expression:
=IIF(Parameters!GroupExpand.Value="Yes", False, True)
Select “Display can be toggled by this report item” option, and select “SalesTerritoryGroup” in the drop down list.
5. Use the same method setting CalendarYear, (Details) drill-down with following expression:
=IIF(Parameters!CountryExpand.Value="Yes", False, True)
=IIF(Parameters!YearExpand.Value="Yes", False, True)
6. Click SalesTerritoryGroup text box in the tablix. Select InitialToggleState property in the Properties dialog box, and type following expression:
=IIF(Parameters!GroupExpand.Value="Yes", True, False)
7. Use the same method setting SalesTerritoryCountry, CalendarYear text box with following expression:
=IIF(Parameters!CountryExpand.Value="Yes", True, False)
=IIF(Parameters!YearExpand.Value="Yes", True, False)
After that, when we preview the report, we can use these three parameters to expand/collapse drill-down.
Note:
In our test, we may meet following issue. We can check the expression of InitialToggleState property to troubleshooting the issue.

How to use drill down hierarchy in column chart of BO OLAP edition tool?

I had created hierarchy table in olap tool where i can drill down Zonewise then Regionwise then Customerwise but this technique is not possible in Graph of Olap tool ,so my question is how can aaply drill down method in graph?

Hello Raul
This is odd. Have a look at the screen shots below. I start at the top level "WORLD".
I right-click on "WORLD" and choose "Expand". This gives me the second screen shot.
I then right-click on "NORTH AMERICA" and choose "Expand". This gives me the third screenshot.
As you can see, levels are expanded one-at-a-time. The only thing I can think of is that the BW query has been set up to drill down automatically to a particular level.

How to use drill down

Post Author: omaha
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
How do you get a bar chart to function as a drill down chart? I've tried creating groups, but apparently there's more or something else necessary. I have 3 formulas, each summed at the group level, and I would like for the bar chart that is currently shown to function as a drill down, thereby I hope to make the report simply show the chart ... and if desired, the user can click on the bar of interest to them and see that particular detail.
Again, the values I'm summing are formulas, not actual values in the table.
Thanks for any help

CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
New to Crystal but I have a report that groups production jobs for the last 7 days by day, and then I have group summaries for them for a number of the fields some of which are formuas, and build 6 bar charts from them, with 'OnChangeOf' set to to the date group (GH1). Now when someone clicks on a bar it drills down and display's that day's jobs, which then have a drill-down to a detail on each individual job. Didn't design it like that - found it by accident this morning!
Hope this helps.

Drill down arrow in Crystal Report

Hi,
I've created a crystal report based on a SQL statement that brings some information about service calls.
I would like to include a drill down arrow for service call ID.
I found this as being the link: 'http://$b1$/link?table=OCRD&key='+{OCRD.CardCode} but not sure how to change for what I need. I don't have any tables since I am using a command. Should I bring OSCL table? How do i have to chance it for CallID? I get an error message saying "A string is required".
Thank you for your help!
Cristina

Hi Neetu,
I don't get any error message so thanks for this. I don't have OSCL table, I only have a command based on sql query containing the fields I want. When I replace OSCL with the command name it opens a web page "Internet Explorer cannot display the page" with http://$b1$/link?table=Command&key=6159 address. So it's recognising callID. Do I need to bring OSCL table and link it to my command and use OSCL in the link?
Thank you!
Cristina

http://support.businessobjects.com/communityCS/TechnicalPapers/cr10_java_bean_datasource.pdf
and followed all steps to use JavaBeans as a DataSource.
I have setup all registry entry requiered for it but still getting blank dialog box for Java Beans Connectivity classes?
If anyone have tried to use, then give suggestions.

Default Drill Down Options

Anyone know if there is a way to set the default drill down option in a report to "Expand by Inserting New Rows"? I know I can save a template with that option, but I'd like to set the BPC global default that way.
Thanks in advance,
Paul

Hi, you can try to set the Drill Down Options using the code below:
Sub ChangeWorkbookOptions()
'    If an error occurs it is necessary to first add the parameter name
On Error GoTo EXPOPTIONS_NameError
    Application.Names("EV__EXPOPTIONS__").Value = 0 ' use the parameters value 0 or 1
    Exit Sub
EXPOPTIONS_NameError:
    Application.Names.Add Name:="EV__EXPOPTIONS__", RefersTo:=16, MacroType:=-4142, RefersToLocal:=16
    Resume
    Exit Sub
End Sub
' EV__EXPOPTIONS__
'   The drill-down options control member expansion behavior in the active spreadsheet.
'   0: (Expand by Overwriting Rows) - The expanded members are displayed in the rows below the expanded member, clearing existing members as needed - normal
'   1: (Expand by Inserting Rows) u2013 Any rows below the expanded member shift down, and new rows are inserted to accommodate the newly displayed members - 1

Discoverer Viewer - Drill down option

Dear all
I created a report in discoverer desktop, with drill down option for financial information.It works fine in Disco Desktop. All the drill down options are working fine as well. But the same report when run in disco viewer, it has got an option for drilling down further, then another option for collapse(with the blue button) - to view the summary value.
When the collapse option is chosen, the blue color button disappears in Viewer and wouldnt know how to drill down back without reloging into the application.
Could you please help me how to solve this problem, as I need to share this report with users who has viewer access only?We are using 9i at the moment.
Thanks.

Hi Russ
I have heard folks having awful issues with IE 7. It seems to mess up everything Oracle. Sounds like Oracle and Microsoft have some hurdles to cross. For now I would advise everyone to either stay on IE 6 or use another browswer like Firefox.
To answer the specific question posted here, it is possible that the user has hit one of the well known Discoverer bugs wherein Discoverer Viewer cannot properly execute workbooks created in Desktop. There are fixes and one-off patches available for this in MetaLink but these patches all require a password to download them. I would advise the raising of a service request and in the request spefically ask if there is a one-off patch that will fix this.
Best wishes for now
Michael

Hi,
It depends what you mean by drill down, you can't yet drill to other sources (maybe not true if count in Essbase hybrid data) though you can use expansion, so if you click on a member it will retrieve and display say its children. Read more here
