About Report Customization

Hi, am new to crystal reports and I wanted to know if it's possible in crystal reports to give the end user the ability to customize a report regarding what fields he wants to include in the report or what are the fields he wants to use for grouping data or whether to combine results from different tables or sort or group the results.
I found that as a devloper such things are done when designing the report then saving it and displaying it to end users as it is but we have a client requirement that the end user has the ability to customize the report in the way he wants. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance.

Customization to certain level is done using conditional Grouping, Conditional Sorting and further Conditional suppressing. To be more clear. you can use parameters for different groupings, sorting order and fields display and based on the parameters selected can develop your reports. Let me know if this is clear to you.
How your end-user will interact with the reports.?

  • When I try to open a recent document I get the following message "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document."  I have downloaded version Pages version 5.2.2 and the app store confirms this, but my Pages About reports that I am using 4.3

    When I try to open a recent document I get the following message "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document."  I have downloaded version Pages version 5.2.2 and the app store confirms this (and won't let me download it again), but my Pages About reports that I am using 4.3

    Here is the solution that I received from the chat line.
    When you update applications like Pages it usually keeps both versions on the computer. So what most likely happened is it didn’t put the new version on your dock. So to fix this, open a finder window. And go into applications which should be listed on the left. Scroll down and you will see Pages listed in here. And the icon should look different. You can drag that icon down onto your dock.Open that and you then can access your documents

    But this note doesnu2019t exist.
    Can you help me ?
    Thanks

    The implementation is free of charge from SAP's perspective as you apply the note. Please make sure that you actually read the code and adapt to your needs if needed.
    The note exists but only as a pilot release and and customers will be added only if they really want the reports. SAP does not officially support it. I know it from first hand, I'm the one who releases it to the customers

  • The question about portlet customization and synchronization

    I have a question about portlet customization and synchronization.
    When I call
    NameValuePersonalizationObject data = (NameValuePersonalizationObject) PortletRendererUtil.getEditData(portletRenderRequest);
    portletRenderRequest.setPortletTitle(str);
    portletRenderRequest.putString(aKey, aValue);
    PortletRendererUtil.submitEditData(portletRenderRequest, data);
    Should I make any synchronization myself (use "synchronized" blocks or something else) or this procedure is made thread-safe on the level of the Portal API?

    HI Dimitry,
    I dont think you have to synchronize the block. i guess the code is synchronized internally.

  • Calling javascript function from report customization form

    I have been unable to call any user-defined javascript function from Portal Report Customization forms.
    Even a simple Message Box function doesn't work. I've been placing my code in the ..after header PL/SQL section for the report customization form.
    htp.p('<script type="javascript">');
    htp.p('function MsgBox(message){');
    htp.p('alert(message);}');
    htp.p('</script>');
    htp.p('See if it works');
    I have verified in plain html that my syntax is fine. Even the syntax rendered by portal is correct:
    <script type="javascript">
    function MsgBox(message){
    alert(message);}
    </script>
    See if it works
    Despite this, you will get a javascript error that an Object is expected, MsgBox not defined. Clearly from the script above MsgBox is defined.
    I have tried any number of calls to user defined functions and can't get anything to work. However, calling native functions like 'alert' works fine ( ie
    See if it works
    Anyone know how I can call a user defined javascript function in a Portal Report Customization form?

    Try changing the code
    htp.p('<script type="javascript">');
    to
    htp.p('<script language="javascript">');
    Thanks

  • Report Customization Form Question

    How do you display the report customization before the report is rendered?

    If the Report is used as a portlet, I think it's not possible. Only the personalize link will display the customization options
    If the report is display in a full page, try: <SCHEMA>.<REPORT>.show_parms

  • Questions about reports

    Hi experts, pls help advise. Thx.
    Q1: Any chance to add the selection criteria "order creator" into the report (T code VL04)?
    Q2: Any chance to change the layout of the report (T code VL04), i.e. add "sold to party", "sales order no.", creation date for sales order", & "undelivered qty:?
    Q3: If it's hard to solve the questions above, any other reports can capture sales orders which are due for delivery?
    Q4: Which report can show the detail status of sales orders, e.g. open qty, delivered qty, undelivered qty?
    Q5: How to save the layout of the report (T code VA05) which is customized by end-users?
    Q6: What settings are required to perform collective delivery, i.e. create one delivery from several sales orders? I have tried it but failed, even same customer, same shippping condition, same delivery date, same shipping point.

    Dear Cathy,
    Q3: If it's hard to solve the questions above, any other reports can capture sales orders which are due for delivery?
    T. Code: VL10C
    Q4: Which report can show the detail status of sales orders, e.g. open qty, delivered qty, undelivered qty?
    I don't think, there is any single Standard Report for above said purpose.
    You may, look in to different reports:
    VL10C - Delivery Due (Sales Order-wise)
    VL06O - Delivered (You may fetch the Report, based upon Sales Order - Enter Range for S. Order, under Tab: Doc. Data, and then execute the Report)
    VA05 - Open Sales Order
    To view, all details in to single report, customization required.
    Alternatively, save output in "Excel" and use "VLOOKUP" to combined the result, from above reports
    Q6: What settings are required to perform collective delivery, i.e. create one delivery from several sales orders? I have tried it but failed, even same customer, same shippping condition, same delivery date, same shipping point.
    Basic requirement for Collective Delivery:
    Ship To Party
    Inco Terms
    Confirmed quantity date at schedule line level
    Delivery priority
    Shipping Point
    Above-data must be same in all Sales Orders.
    Also routine "051" will allow you to combine only if billing document types are also same. So try with 101 in Field: Order Combination, within T. Code: VTLA, for your item category.
    Try with T. code: VL01N/ VL10A/ VL10B, to create Delivery.
    If WM is assigned then a transfer order has to be created to do delivery using LT03 and once you create transfer order then you can do PGI.or you can confirm the transfer order using LT12
    Best Regards,

  • Report about reports

    Hi Gurus
    How to create a report (using Presentation Services) which contains informations about reports, Dashboards?
    I mean exactly, to see the content of the Presentation catalog in a report form.
    Thanks
    Laszlo

    Hi Laszlo
    I am not a guru so that's only my opinion:
    The content of the catalog is stored in files in a folder tree. These files are used by a java-based service that queries the BI server, performs some computations and displays the whole in the pretty report you asked.
    So I don't think there is any easy way to query the catalog. I think it would mean dig in the folders and files to try and get some data, store it in some Oracle table and report on that. Tricky. Some files contain XML (report description) so you can most probably load that. But attribute files are harder to understand. They most probably contain security and other settings information...
    Maybe another source of information could be the NQ server log files. You would then raise the users' log level to some level and then read the log files when you want to perform some query. Again, not sure this is very easy, and most probably not following the best practices.
    good luck!
    Ced.

  • Question about reports layout

    Hi ,
    I have a quick question about report Layout.
    I have created a report in 6i. Now if I want to change my
    select statement and add new table to select from , it just
    restructures my report layout again and set that to Default One.
    Is there any way where I can set my Own layout as Default for
    that particular Report ?
    I would really appreciate any feedback.
    Thanks
    Vidya

    Try to give it alias names to the columns . Then when you
    change the table your are selecting from . The layout should
    not change.

  • TestStand Report Customization

    I'm using TestStand 3.5 and LabVIEW8.  In a related exercise, I found that the file StationGlobals.ini contains a number of configurable options.  I used the TestStand sequence editor to update the Station Globals (I added some custom items).  I was able to use the Sequence Context control in LabVIEW (from the TestStand palette) combined with the TestStand Get Property Value.vi, to read some of these custom properties.
    I'd like to do similar things for reports.  I see the Report Options in TestStand's sequence editor.  What I'm wondering is if there is a similar .ini file and if there is a control in LabVIEW (i.e. TestStand Pallete) to access the various report options, thus allowing some report customization.  Any examples would be most appreciated.  Thanks.

    There is TestStandModelReportOptions.ini that has the station defaults and definitions. Report options are local variables in the process model. For the Sequential Model, that's in the execution entry points Test UUTs and Single Pass and there is a sequence in each called Get Report Options that reads the ini file and updates the local variable. The report options is a container that is passed to TestReport Callback so you can read and modify the options in the report generation sequence itself or if you want to access them from a test sequence in either a function call or VI, you can reference RunState.Root.Locals.ReportOptions.(whatever).

  • Search report customization form

    Hi,
    does anyone know how I can achieve context-insensitivity in a query-wizard based report customization form??
    Or how I can default user entries in the query fields to all UpperCase?
    Thanks for you help!!
    Maike

    Hi,
    This cannot be done in query based wizard report. You can do this in sql based report by designing your query in such a way.
    select * from scott.emp
    where upper(ename) like upper(:name)
    This code makes the code cases insensitive inspite of the user entering small case in the :name.
    Thanks,
    Sharmila
