Import Crystal Reports Dunning letter as SAP Business One layout

Hello,
I have created a dunning letter in Crystal Reports. I want to import this layout as a layout (not a report) in Business One.
Problem is that I don't know the parameters in the report so I can import the layout between the standard PLD layouts (like Dunning 1, dunning 2 dunning 3 dunning all etc). I tried a few but import fails everytime. You also don't get any errormessage when the layout cannot be imported.
Anybody knows what parameters to use in this report? Thanks.
Regards Thijs

Hello Gordon/ Rahul,
Thanks for yor reply.
I already created a Crystal report that runs as a report. In this case you select the WizardName and the report will give an output of all dunning letters in this report.
Unfortunately it is not possible to import this report because when I do that I only get the error that SAP Business One couldn't import the layout. EXporting a layout is af course not possible because only PLD layouts are available in dunning.
Regards Thijs

Crystal Reports Dynamic Parameters with SAP Business One

Okay, I've got this very strange issue with dynamic parameters in Crystal Reports connected to SAP Business One.
Let's start with the software versions:
- Crystal Reports 12.3.0.601
- SAP Business One 8.8 (8.80.231) SP: 00 PL: 13
- Windows XP SP3
(SBO Server on Windows 2003 and SQL 2005)
What I'm about to describe is something I've tried in several reports and for which I created a very, very simple test report to see if it was reproducible in a very simple situation.
- I connected to a Business One server through CR's SBO connection type. Logon is successful, tables are shown.
- I pick OCRD and plac CardCode and CardName in the details section on the report. Previewing the report shows data.
- I create a dynamic parameter on CardCode and in the Select Expert I select the CardCode field and define that that should be equal to the parameter.
- I preview the report again. Now it asks me in such a parameter screen for logon credentials. It shows the server and database it tries to connect to and in the username it shows the SQL Server username I used to connect to the SQL Server in the first place. However, the password for that user is not accepted. I also tried to login with the Windows administrator user and with the SBO manager user, but no success with any attempt.
I also tried to add a static parameter and add all database values to the list. Same screen, different result:
Crystal Reports 2008 wrote:
Logon Failed.
Error in File UNKNOWN.RPT:
Unable to connect: incorrect log on parameters. (rptcontrollers.dll)
(On a side note: the report is saved as report1.rpt)
Anyone else got similar issues and found a solution?

Hi,
When you have fixed your crystal installation following the note posted earlier, please take a look at the [how to guide|http://service.sap.com/sapidb/011000358700000882232009E.pdf] and also at the [e-learning|http://service.sap.com/sapidb/011000358700001370262010E] about SAP Business One 8.8 and Crystal Reports.
There are so called "tokens" which you need to use instead of dynamic parameters.
Dynamic paramters don't work in SAP Business One 8.8, if they are not defined as a static paramter with token.
Best regards,
Darius

Crystal Reports background processing for SAP Business One 8.8

Dear Partners,
I have an SDK program developed in SAP Business One SDK that works in 2007, it calls crystal reports externally and can be executed as a background task using the windows schedular or from the command prompt.
My problem is it does not work under SAP Business One SDK 2008 PL18 with SQL Server 2008, Visual Studio 2008.
I receive the following message after this line in my code,"oReport.PrintToPrinter(CopyNo, False, 0, 0)".
'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.LogOnException: Logon failed.
Error in File XX_Report_Ver_0.01 {1A6620A2-5D73-49D2-9347-32ED068AA64E}.rpt:

My Question is what Crystal Reports libraries or other method should I be using ?
Crystal Reports 2008 for SAP Business One eg. 51038978.zip - downloaded from portal obviously dosn't contain the CrystalDecisions libraries.
Crystall Reports 2008 - cr2008_sp3_fullbuild, cr2008fp33.exe, cr2008fp33_mm, cr2008fp33_clickonce - also download from the portal, the cr2008_sp3_fullbuild does contain the crystal decisions libraries.
Finally other choices are crystal reports included with the visual studio 2008 and crystal reports full version direct from Business Objects.
I have tried different versions of crystal decision libraries- eg, 12.0110 or 12.02 but still no joy.
Also if I manage to get the report to fire what should the client be running eg, if they have the Crystal Reports 2008 for Business One do they also need to install the Crystal Reports Run time - cr2008fp33_clickonce.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi John
Since the SDK works in 2007 it will be using the OLD DB access method.
Change the Crystal report to use an OLE DB datasource rather than the SAP Business One data source.

Need some help with parameters.
Table "A" has a list of Sales orders (Header details)

XL Reporter not loaded in SAP Business One Resource Error

Hi to forum,
I have installed SAP B 1 and using SQL Server 2k for database. I have got problem loading time of add-on i.e. XL Reporter below given error occur. Any expert can guide me to resolve this.
(1) Unable to connect SAP Business One

Hi Runar,
Most of the times this message appears to users who have got .Net Framework 1.0 and 2.0 installed on their machines at the same time. That actually confuses the XL Reporter on which to run. I would recommend creating an XML file with the name as "SBOXLReporter.exe.config" and save it at the following XLReporter working location
C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\AddOns\XLR\XLReporter\Client\
Make sure u paste the following text as it is in that XML File and save it and then run XLReporter. Hope it works out.
<?xml version="1.0"?>

<supportedRuntime version="v1.1.4322"/>

Get SAP Business One connection

Hi all.
I'm creating a report using Crystal Reports Basic 2008 for SAP Business One and I have a question.
Our client has three databases under one server, so, I'm creating three reports and i'm conecting them under a UDL file.
My question is if it's possible to get the actual SAP Business One connection when the report is call? Because this way, I can only make a report instead of three.
I hope I was able to express myself best. I'm thank you and i'm waiting. Thanks.
The system have:
Windows Server 2008 SP2
SQL Server 2008
SAP Business One 8.8 PL 11
Crystal Reports Basic 2008 for SAP Business One 12.1.0.892

Hi,
I don't think that is possible since the sequence to run CR is after connecting to a specific database.
Thanks,
Gordon

Do we need a SAP Business One & Business Objects Forum?

Hi all,
We have made the Crystal Reports Add-on for SAP Business One available in the [Knowledge Center|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/businessone?rid=/webcontent/uuid/807d22cb-cb1d-2b10-8794-fb76d7feca88]
For all discussions arround SAP Business One and the new Add-On Crystal Reports we have at the moment one [Thread|SAP Business One and Crystal Reports; with very high contribution.
So we would like to ask you, if a new Forum is needed and if yes where to put it (beneath the SAP Business One Forums or the Business Objects Forums)?
Thanks for your feedback,
Richard and Darius

Richard/Darius,
Having experience both SAP Business One and Business Objects, I would suggest that all reporting aspects of Crystal Reports should stay in Business Objects Forum.
I would still agree to create a sub-forum for Crystal Reports in SAP Business One, as long as the topics are more of the integration of Crystal Reports with SAP B1.

SAP Business One Reporting tools

Which is the best reporting tool suitable for SAP Business One?

It depends on what you are looking for, there is no one tools that satisfy all.
Personally, I prefer Crystal report and queries. PLD is not preferred due to its limitation in formatting and adding additional fields.
XL reports works extremely well if you are like excel and you are happy with writing reports based on existing fields avaiable as yo have no control on that.

SAP Business One Message Billing

One of our client is using MICROS POS system. We want to import the invoices to SAP business One 2007A using the format of Invoice provided in Data Transfer Workbench (after exporting Invoices from MICROS POS). We have tried the data transfer workbench for this purpose. We are at critical juncture.
We tried to input a .csv file to of Invoices in DTW, but it is showing an error after trying for several times. Please guide us on how we can import invoices at day end in SAP Business One, Please advise. Alternative suggestions would be welcomed as well.

Nasir,
Can you tell us what the error is that you are receiving as this would help direct you to a solution.
Also, there are samples of how to import invoices as well as other documents that come with the DTW. You may want to reference these for help also.
You can find this information by clicking Start > All Programs > SAP Business One > Data Migration > Templates and look at the Data Preperation examples.

Problem while importing a Crystal Report in SAP Business One

Hi Experts,
I am facing a problem while importing a Crystal Report in SAP Business One, it displaying an error "No matching records found 'Queries' (OUQR) (ODBC -2028) [Message 131-183]" , and there is no use of this table OUQR in the Query.
Kindly let me know the solution.
Regards
Rahul Singh

Hi Rhaul,
i don't exactly know why this is a problem, but if your not on latest (881 p10) then upgrade and try again.
Or as a workaround,
try saveing from CR to SAP with the CR add-on. That usualy works better then the import.

Dunning Letter as Crystal Report: What tables? (SAP B1 9.0)

Dear Experts,
I am being asked to revise the Dunning Letters for our clients. The existing PLDs for each Dunning Letter shows most data fields as system variables. The existing Crystal Report for Dunning Letter 1 is a conversion from the PLD and doesn't show table information for most of the report's main items. There are tables in the report but they are standard ones (OADM, OADP, OCRD, OHEM, OSLP). It also includes a "table" called "PLD__ITEMS" which has all the PLD system variables and no B1 table or field/column information.
As I'm just now starting to work with dunning letters, I see that I can't even run this report in Crystal. The PLD__Items datasource prompts me for a file path and class name. Any ideas what one enters here to run the report outside of B1 (from the Crystal report designer)?
The main focus of my question is: Has anyone created a Crystal Report to replicate the Dunning Letter and if so, what tables are involved and how are they connected? If I can create a Dunning Letter entirely in Crystal, I can replicate it across all clients and get the correct fields/columns of data the clients want. The inclusion of the PLD__Items apparently limits my ability to test the results. I would prefer to avoid the PLD limitations.
Thanks for any assistance.

Thank you Nagarajan. I have a dunning letter created in Crystal Reports for our client. It is fairly limited in scope, it just has the customer name and address, invoice numbers and dates, amounts due and the text they wanted in it.
I can import it into B1 9.0 and set it as the default for Dunning Letter #1 and it runs, but unlike other formats where there is a DocEntry and/or ObjectID and a ?DocKey@ or ?ObjectId@ parameter, how do I limit the report to just one customer? Typical document layouts run for the document that's on the screen. In the dunning process, the report runs once for every customer when the Dunning Letter Method is set to "One Letter per BP". I have to limit the report to one customer at a time. Right now, each dunning letter based on the Crystal report is identical and it contains all the data for every customer.
So, does anyone have any ideas for what selection criteria needs to be included in the Crystal report to have it select just one customer from the dunning wizard tables? Thanks.
Michael
Edit: I created a ?WizardID@ parameter and a ?CardCode@ parameter to limit the report to a single dunning wizard event and a single customer. While it works fine in Crystal itself, it doesn't work in B1 at all. I had thought that by limiting the report in this way, it would only create dunning letters for a single customer.
