Question about Crystal Reports and SAP 2007

Good day experts,
I am in the process of creating a Cross Tab report in Crystal Reports, When I get to the screen Cross Tab Report Creation Wizard, any UDFs contained within the source Stored Procedure are not available for selection.
I have tried adding other UDFs to the Stored Procedure and they are also not available.
Is this correct? To me a UDF is just another field in the SAP table.
Thanks
OB

Hi OB........
The UDFs you created and taken into the Query you have to cast it into nvarchar. And then only it will show it in your crystal......
Try this Cast(U_UDF as nvarchar) put your UDF code in place of UDF........
Hope this will help you......

Rahul

Crystal Reports and MII 11.5

Are there any documents out there on the pros and cons of integrating Crystal Reports with MII? Can it be done. If so, how can my company do this?

Hi,
The Software Crystal Report is a software for creating reports very good and the MII is a software for creating reports and integrate your manufacturing and more ...
Is possible integrate the two system, but I'm not view very advantages, because if you have installed MII in your company is much simpler to create the reports within the SAP MII.
That depends on your business if uses the reports to Crystal Reports and want to keep this software integrates the software, if your company wants more intelligence use SAP MII I think much better.
I not view documents in SDN about Crystal Reports and SAP MII.
See also on Xcelsius other tool very good.
Hope this helps...

Crystal reports and formatted reporting.

hi experts,
i have a clarification about crystal reports and formatted reporting.in what scenarios they are used..
points ll be rewarded...
thanks

Hi ,
Crystal Reports is a powerful, dynamic, actionable reporting solution that helps you design, explore, visualize, and deliver reports via the web or embedded in enterprise applications. It enables end users to consume reports with stunning visualizations, conduct on-report business modeling, and execute decisions instantly from the report itselfreducing dependency on IT and developers.
The report can then be previewed on the screen, printed onto paper or exported to one of several different file formats such as PDF, Excel, text or CSV.
It is also possible to run a Crystal Report without using the full Crystal Reports designer software. These alternate methods for running reports include locally installed viewers, schedulers, and report distribution tools. These are typically third-party software programs (independent of Business Objects) that allow you to open, refresh, preview, print and export an RPT file. In 2007 Business Objects released their own viewer, Crystal Reports Viewer XI, but unlike the independent viewers it does not allow the user to refresh the report, but only to view static data saved in the RPT file.
Thnx,
Srinivas

Crystal Reports and Business One Problems

Hello all
Some questions about Crystal Reports and Business One, I try run some Crystal reports developed in special but for some reason when I ussing Terminal Services this unplug, so, more strange its when the user are not administrators because when are adminstrators this problem is not present.
Some tip its welcome.
Thanks a lot

Hi Ricardo,
I checked the privileges point to point, even as he opened like to administration, but no response as to assign regular users, that is strange.
>I didn't undertstand these statement .What do you mean by point to point .There is only one place you have to specify was user has access to the group you have defined .As described , it is done in number 4 .(Please refer to that )
When we are talking about user -there is two user --One is superuser and regular user
If you are super user , you have to give permission to other users to only crystal report and regular user doesn't need access to Administration module <referring he opened like to administration> .
BTW , Are you familiar with crystal report administration in SAP b1 ? You can find several thread poiting towards training material in the forum
Hope this helps

Crystal love and hate

Post Author: wapper
CA Forum: General
As a developer, I have been working with Crystal since version 5. Currently on v8.5, not moving further because of existing projects and the number of issues with CR10-XI that I don't like. My feelings to Crystal have always been contradictious. It is a great and powerful tool for doing things, better than any other reporting software I know. But there are certain weaknesses that you will soon encounter if you work with Crystal every day.
I decided to write down things I hate about Crystal, in a faint hope that someone has a workaround I'm not aware of. Needless to say, I have checked Knowledge Base for all problems below, but there was no solution. Couldn't find a solution in forums either.
1. MOST ANNOYING: Cannot move multiple columns with column headers left or right simultaneously. My reports are carefully aligned by using guidelines. Usually there are no empty spaces between the fields. When I have to insert a new columns to the left part of the report, I have to manually move existing columns to the right to make space, one by one, by pulling guidelines. What a pain with 60+ columns, each column has its precise width that needs to remain the same. I really hate it about Crystal. In Microsoft Reporting Service, swapping fields is a breeze, just drag-and-drop column variable and it will be moved along with its header, preserving its width and the widths of other columns. (no solution)
2. MOST ANNOYING: It is very difficult to find where a user variable or database field is referenced, in case we need to delete some unneeded variables. A variable or a field can be in use by another variable, or conditional formatting forumula, or a selection formula, or sorting, or running total, or other. The reference of a variable can be located by changing the data type returned by this variable and observing the error message. But no solution for finding reference of a database field. (no solution)
3. MOST ANNOYING: if I have some groups in my reports, with all the data and conditional formatting, and I need to add yet another group that should become the most outer group, then I need to manually move down all the data and formattings for existing groups one by one, to free up the outer group, because Crystal can only add the inner group, not the outer one. (no solution)
4. Cannot place running totals results for a group into group header. There is a workaround by using crosstab in group header, but it is extremely awkward solution and is not suitable if you have many running totals. The best solution would be the 4th pass that would place precalculated running totals to any place on the report. (no solution)
5. Cannot make big print forms that exceed standard paper format A4/A3/A2. Crystal can only use windows print forms that are supported by current printer driver. It is possible to use customized print forms, but on another computer, the report will be truncated to Letter/A4 if custom form is not defined on that computer. Sometimes it is necessary to create very wide reports that should be spanned to multiple pages horizontally. No way to do that in Crystal.(no solution)
6. Cannot join tables without actual relation (when one table always has one row, for example, a table containing system options). (no solution, must use fictitious join)
7. Cannot use inner join after outer join, if, for example, you need to outer-join a subquery with 2 tables that are inner-joined. Example: SELECT a., b. FROM a LEFT OUTER JOIN b INNER JOIN c ON b.id2 = c.id2 ON a.id = b.id (workaround: make views that contain inner joins, and outer-join those views instead of tables)
8. No way to join tables on compound field (rarely needed but still a problem) Example: SELECT a., b. FROM a LEFT OUTER JOIN b ON a.year*12 + a.month = b.period_index
9. Crosstab: summarized values cannot be placed horizontally (workaround exists but will destroy export to excel) CRXI solves this problem
10. CR9, CR10, CRXI: it is extremely difficult and time-consuming to move your existing report to another database server or another database with the same structure. You have to change the location property for each table, manually, one at a time. In CR8, you only had to change the location for 1 table, and Crystal did the same for the rest of the tables.(no solution)
11. CR9, CR10, CRXI: when reporting off the stored procedure with a lot of optional parameters, you have to check "Set to NULL" checkbox every time you perform "Verify database". Try to do this with SP-s having ca 100 parameters, and you will quickly become a Crystal hater.(no solution)
That's pretty much all. I intentionally left out clear bugs that are not fixed by the latest service packs and hotfixes, and also I left out issues with exporting to different formats, mostly to Excel. One can write a book about how to export to Excel and its gotchas in different Crystal versions.
I will be happy if experiences people will comment my list, maybe together we can find a solution or workaround to some of the problems.

CA Forum: General
Thanks for the answers. I'm glad to know that grouping and running total issues have been resolved in CRXI. This might become a reason for me to move on with Crystal.
Charliy, about compiled reports, I did not miss this feature because I've always preferred building a small frontend application for better handling of connection information and report parameters.About repository, I don't get it, according to "Crystal feature comparison by version and edition" document, the repository is still there in CRXI. Is it?
yangster, I am aware about the Command feature of newer Crystal versions, however, I think I cannot use SQL commands to imitate different combinations of joins because of performance issues. According to article c2016331, and to my own experience, the data returned by multiple SQL commands will be joined on the client, not on the server. Joining hundreds of thousands rows on the client is... not very optimal. Nevertheless, multiple SQL commands may be useful for simple lookup technics with limited number of rows.
The #1 issue is all about guidelines. As I wrote, all fields in my reports are carefully aligned from bottom, left and right and are snapped to guidelines. Guidelines make it easier to achieve perfect formatting, which is extremely important for me since most of my reports must export to Excel flawlessly. Without guidelines, aligning tens of fields without gaps is a major pain.But the problem is, selecting and dragging multiple fields will un-snap them, leaving guidelines behind, because Crystal does not allow you to select and drag guidelines along with fields.The alternative would be snapping objects to grid, but I personally don't like the grid for a number of reasons, including having to change the grid size for different reports, having to turn "snap to grid" on and off when aligning vertically or horizontally etc. But I have to admit, aligning to grid does seem to be the only choice if you have to move multiple fields around without un-snapping them.

I don't know anything about Crystal Reports whatsoever, and I couldn't care less frankly. There has been an excess of postings on these forums about this product, whatever it may be.
If Crystal Reports isn't relevant to the problem why was it mentioned? In the title?
And in any case why was it posted in a forum entitled 'Reflections & Reference Objects'?
And your suggestion that it's up to me to do the research is fallacious and indeed ludicrous.
And the error message 'java.io.FileNotFoundException: http://localhost/viewer9/javaviewer/ReportViewer.jar' is entirely self-explanatory.
And it strongly appears to have something to do with the deployment of Crystal Reports.
None of which is a Reflections & Reference Objects problem, or a Java problem, or Sun's problem.

Question about Id3-tags and song managem

Hello, I am getting ready to buy a Zen Touch 20GB in a couple of weeks and I have a few questions about the management software.
(Correct me if I am wrong about something)
) Are songs organized into groups by Genre instead of just folders like on the Ipod?
2) Are Id3-tags used instead of filename for identification?
3) What parts of the tag are needed besides title and artist?
4) Which version of tags does the Zen Touch recognize: Version or Version 2?
5) If I edit my tags using an external program such as Id3-TagIT, will the tags carry over to the Creative software and to the player?
Thanks a lot for your help. I want to make sure I have my music collection in order before I get my Zen Touch.

euph_jay wrote:Ok, so lets say I have all my music in folders right now seperated into different categories on my hard dri've. Some folders denote the artist, some the album, and some a genre. Example: Folder: Chicago Contents: Chicago .mp3 files Folder: Techno Contents: various Techno artist's songs What is the best way of organizing my folder system, so that the transition will be easy to the player?
Folders are pretty much irrelevant. What the software will do is look at the *tags* in the files and then use these to build the player's library.
Will imbedded folders work on the player? (like Techno->Crystal Method->Cystal Method .mp3's)
Again the player has no concept of folders, although if you set Techno as a Genre tag you will be able to view via this in the Music Library.
Or, am I misunderstanding how music is stored into the mp3 player. Instead of storing music in a "folder like" system (like the Chicago folder or Techno folder), does it store all the songs individually on the device? Then you have to sort it by artist, album, or genre?
Using your example, in the Music Library you have essentially three categories: Album, Artist, and Genre. So under Album you would see "Vegas" (the Crystal Method's album), under Artist you would see "The Crystal Method", and under Genre you would see "Techno" (and then either the album or artist under this... I forget which it is offhand).
Make sense?

Crystal Reports and Visual Studio when deploying

Hello,
I´ve been searching for these problem for a while with no luck. I've already try many things.
The thing is that I'm not able to make work any report when deploying (Windows Server 2012). Everything works fine when I try on my local machine.
I have Visual Studio 2012 and I've installed CRforVS_13_0_5.
This is my code:

Crystal Reports and salesforce integration question

I have a question about Crystal Reports connectivity to salesforce. We are running Crystal Reports version 14.0.4.738 RTM. When you create a new report and use the Database Expert, you can select www.salesforce.com as the data source. I would like to know if the built-in connection to salesforce is secure. Is our data secure in transit from salesforce to Crystal? Is my password passed in clear text? That kind of thing...
Thanks!
Message was edited by: Ludek Uher

Pete,
As any SAP product Crystal Reports is going through users data security check before any new release. It includes any bult-in connection that comes as a part of product installation. Unfortunately I do not have any document for a reference, but your user password is not exposed in CR connectivity.
I think I should mention that prior to Crystal reports 2013 (version 14.1....) we used our own java based driver, but starting from CR 2013 we are outsourcing the driver to a third party and it is ODBC driver. It means the SFDC driver will automatically change if you decide to update your CR 2011.
Hope it helps,
Vitaly

Crystal Reports and BW - spec requ'mnts

I have been asked how much more detail is required for a Crystal reports developer, if one is preparing a report spec. I don't know enough about Crystal reports to know. I can detail what is required for a BEx report, but the graphic nature of Crystal reports obviously would need more, I think.
can someone give me an idea of just how much more detail is required in a typical crystal reports spec. Is it mainly graphic and formatting detail, or what?
Thanks in advance for your kind contributions.
nallysem

I would be very interested in ANY documentation on how to build a Crystal Report against a BW query. I have the BO XI R2 Integration Kit for SAP but it leaves a lot to the imagination. It was useful when I was adding a hierarchy to a group but it says nothing about what can be defined in the query and used by the report. It appears that free characteristics and properties (Expand to Level) are not available within Crystal. Note: I'm using the MDX driver because hierarchies are important.
The issue I'm faced with is related to grouping a hierarchy. I'm building a report that groups both the Division and a Customer Hierarchy. When I group the data in Crystal using a group to represent the Division and a group to display the Customer Hierarchy order everthing appears great. But when I group it By Customer Hierarchy By Division I see divisions in groups I do not see in BEx.
The Integration Kit states you should create a hierarchy by placing the Hierarchy Node ID as the Crystal Reports group field. Then select the Hierarchy Reporting Option and sort the data hierarchically by the Parent ID. This seems to work fine as long as you do not have additional groups below the hierarchy group.
I did print out the data in the details section of the Crystal Report instead of grouping it and noted that these obscure groups in Crystal have NodeIDs which differ from the NodeID of the group which I expect it in. So, does BEx group hierarchies differently. Do they use the UniqueID?
Any help would really be appreciated. Documentation even more so.

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.

Stratos

Crystal Reports and Xcelsius Installation

Hi I have a mac book pro and wanted to learn crystal reports and xcelsius in a hands on way. I have created a partition on the laptop and am wondering which OS to install - Windows(if so which one) or Linux. Immediate goal is have an environment where I can use CR and Xcelsius with a non sap data source. My end goal eventually is to have an environment where I can use Crystal report and xcelsius with SAP ECC6.
I am trying to learn CR, Xcelsius with SAP ECC and SAP BW. Your ideas and isights are welcome.
Thanks

Hi Otto,
Thanks for the link. Your link will be a good start for me in terms of finding out the major components required to accomplish this 'project'. I am definitely interesting in collaborating and discussing the findings and exploring the areas of opportunity, so lets stayi in touch.
I dont have access to any windows os right now. So I am thinking about installing linux on my mac book pro since its free and probably going to beef up the ram to 3 gb (per my understanding max supported on my 2007 model). Hopefully this will get me going in the right direction.
Any recommendations on Suse vs Red hat. looking for something that is free.
Thanks
