Anable drill down to crystal from xcelsius

Hello,
I would like to know what are my options to have a drill down or link to crystal reports from xcelsius?
I have note for only one option, where I can put a "url button", in this option, is it possible to redirect to a crystal report which I save on my local computer or only to the server?
I will appreciate your answer,
Thank you

Hi,
you will have two options:
1) OpenDocument: To open the crystal report with an URL using the URL Button in Xcelsius:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/xi3-1_url_reporting_opendocument_en.pdf
It works only with reports saved on InfoView.
2) Use Dashboard Builder (Inside InfoView)
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/xi3-1_dashboard_builder_user_guide_en.pdf#page=34
There you can show Xcelsius and Crystal reports next to each other, interaction from Xcelsius to Crystal reports parameters is possible through "content linking"
Regards

Drill Down in Crystal Reports

Gurus,
I am trying to add drill down to my Crystal Report, I know this can be achieved by using Hyperlink but the button for drill down is disabled. How can I enable this achieve the drill down function. Please find attach file for your convince.

Hi Faisal........
Please check the below explanation.......
The Report Part Drilldown option
The Report Part Drilldown option lets you define a hyperlink so that the Report Part Viewer can emulate the drill-down functionality of Crystal Reports. The Report Part Viewer displays only destination objects; therefore, to make drill down work, you need to define a navigation path from a home object to one or more destination objects. When you have multiple destination objects, they must all reside in the same report section.
The Report Part Drilldown option does not affect the DHTML page viewers since the option emulates the default Crystal Reports behavior for drill down (which the page viewers already support). Page viewers, however, do not limit which objects are displayed—they always show all report objects.
Note: Use the Report Part Drilldown option only to navigate between objects in the same report.
Because the Report Part Viewer shows only destination objects, you must define Initial Report Part Settings (that is, a default home object) for a report before your Report Part Drilldown hyperlinks can work. A report's Initial Report Part Settings define the object that appears first in the Report Part Viewer. Think of this object as the place you'll begin your path of drill-down hyperlinks from.
To define Initial Report Part Settings
Open the report whose default home object you want to define.
Right-click the object you want to set as the default home object and select Copy from its shortcut menu.
On the File menu, click Report Options.
In the Initial Report Part Settings area of the Report Options dialog box, click Paste Link.
The program pastes the name and data context of the report object you selected as your home object into the appropriate fields.
Tip: For more information about data contexts, see Data context formats.
Include another object from the same section of the report by entering a semi-colon (;) and typing the name of the object.
Click OK.
To create a Report Part Drilldown hyperlink
Note: Before you begin this procedure, be sure to read Setting up navigation to acquaint yourself with the limitations of creating this type of hyperlink.
Open a report and select the intended destination object; then click the Format button on the Expert Tools toolbar.
Tip: You can also do this by selecting Format Field from the Format menu.
In the Format Editor, click the Hyperlink tab.
In the DHTML Viewer Only area, select Report Part Drilldown.
The "Hyperlink information" area changes to show the fields available for this type of hyperlink.
The Available Fields area shows only the sections and report objects you can select for drill down. In general, these objects include field objects, charts, maps, bitmaps, cross-tabs, and text objects contained in the next section down (that is, for example, objects in group two when the object you selected is in group one).
Note: The Available Fields area does not show suppressed report objects.
In the Available Fields area, select the section or report object(s) you want to use as your drill down destination.
Tip: Use the Report Explorer to quickly identify the default names assigned to each of your report objects. To open the Report Explorer, click its button on the Standard toolbar.
You can add all the objects in a section by selecting the section node. If you expand the section node, you can select one or more of the objects that it contains.
Use the arrow buttons to move the selected section or object(s) to the Fields to Display area.
For ease of identification, the program creates a section node in the Fields to Display area. This node contains the objects that you selected in the Available Fields area.
If you want to add another object to the Fields to Display area, select it in the Available Fields list and drag it into position.
Note:
The position an object has in the Fields to Display area determines how it appears in the Report Part Viewer; top to bottom in the Fields to Display area equates to left to right in the viewer. Use the arrows above the Fields to Display area to change the order of objects. (Note that a programmer can alter this default behavior through the PreserveLayout property of the Report Part Viewer.)
The Fields to Display area can contain only one section at a time. If you try to add a second section or an object from a second section, it replaces any existing section in the Fields to Display area.
Click OK.
You have established a hyperlink from your report's home object to a destination object or objects. In the Report Part Viewer, you will see the home object first, and when you click it for drill down, you will see the destination object(s).

Rahul

Drill Down in crystal report

Dear Members,
I have designed a report in which there are 3 groups namely Customer Name,Invoice No and Items.
I need to display the report in a way that.
If i drill down say in customer Name it should list all the customer Name along with invoice No.
If i drill down further for a customer say solns1 it should list the invoices for that customer,
If i now drill down say invoice No then item details should be displayed .
I want all of these to display in a same page.Is this possible?
Any suggestions would be of great help.
Customer Name say Solns1,Solns2,Solns3
      + Solns1
         +InvoiceNo
            +Items
       + Solns2
            +InvoiceNo
                +Items
       + Solns3
Thanks And Regards,
Venkatesh.R

One of the 3rd-party Crystal Report viewers listed at http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html provides that functionality (but it requires you add some formulas to the report to enable that behavior).

Error while drilling down the data from reports

Hi friends,
I have created dimension hierarchies in rpd for drilling down the data.. While i drill down its showing no results at some level when i am clicking on the data.. but when i am clicking on the same levels column header its drilling down properly and i can view the next level for the data item which has shown no results while clicked on it.. Please help me and helps will be appreciated..

Hi,
>when i click on 2000 results displaying is no results
but when i click on the header year its showing the results with 3 for 2000.
So you are able to drill when you click on header..Go to column properties and make heading interaction to no interaction under column format,put value interaction to default and try to drill clicking on value.
in RPD i have some derived columns like month .I created month as derived column from date using logical formula and i used this derived columns as the key.. Is it a problem?No I dont think its a problem

Srikanth

Drill down in crystal on same page

I have hierarchy in my Report . I want to do drill down on that hierarchy field on same page . So that that user can Expand and collapse that field . Pls , i am waiting for your reply.

In-place drill-down is not built into Crystal but you can add such functionality if you develop your own viewer application with the Crystal runtime components. You can see a [video demonstration|http://www.milletsoftware.com/Download/DLV_InPlace_DrillDown.wmv] of how this works in my viewer app.

Drill down to MD04 from custom report

Hi Abapers,
I have a custom report that drill down to MD04 when clicking on the material number.
When user now in MD04 they see all the PO, Pur req, Planned order, dep req, order reservation, etc. Then they click on filter to turn on the fitler and select 'availability based on order reservation" from selection rule drop down as they want to see only order reservation and not anything else (means PO, Pur req, Planned order, dep req).
I need to know is there is a way when we exe our custom report and click on material to come to MD04 we can only see order reservation without clikcing on filter and all that extra step i mentioned above.
Please let me know.
Thanks in advance!

This is not possible without enhancement. You can drill from FS-CM into FS-CD document (click the CD doc reference in claims), but not the other way round.
- A claim object in the insurance subledger has a reference to its policy object . This allows you to see all claim related postings to a policy in the account balance display
- Additionally the sub ledger document is storing claims payment reference number. Theoretically one sub ledger document can relate to multiple claim payments (summerized in one payment reference)
- Usually the claim object in FS-CD is created as prefix + claim number, so it would not be too complicated to re-engineer this logic to build a jump back to the claims system. Better solution would be to determine the claim based on the payment reference provided

I've been trying to solve this issue for several time now: when i have a chart that contains additional data but the top-level data=0, the user is unable to click/hover to drill down and extract the 2nd level data.

Report Writer GR55 Report drill down line items

Hi all,
We have a GLT0 Report in Report writer. The system correctly executes the report and displays account balance for the period. The Report calls T-code FBL3 for display of line items(report/report interface). But when we drill down, the line items are not displayed for the specific period or selection and instead displays the line items for the whole period. (upto date).
The report was copied from a different system and in the source system it was displaying the line items correctly.
Could you pl share any inputs for resolving this issue.
Thanks & Regards
Sri.

The issue was fixed by assigning FS10N to the report and drilling down line items from there.

Dimension Hierarchy - preferred drill down in 11.1.1.5

Hi
I am using the preferred drill down to navigate from one dim hierarchy, to another hierarchy but, it works for some time, then it fails to some.
here is the clear explanation:
dim h1 = region -- > area--->shop number->id1
dim h2= room number ->id2
dim h3= m/c number --> m/c id3
i am trying to build drill down to region - >area-> shop number - > room number - > m/c number
for this i added the preferred drill path from id1 --> room total
and then i added the preferred drill path from id2 --> m/c number
this works for some of them and not for all.
why is this behaviour? does any one face this problem at all...or is that just me...
Please help, little urgent...
Thanks in advance.

Its working...all times....
we dont have data related to that....so it got failed....
Cheers,
Mani.

Drill Down information - not shown in another tab, no navigation

Issue with Drill Down in Crystal Report Viewer 2008:
when clicking on summarized data, detailed data is shown, but it canu2019t be navigated if it has many records in more than 1 page.
Reason? seem's that the navigation logic is for the report itself (parent-summary), without taking into account this hidden data, even if it is visible after clicking.
Any clues?
Thanks, André
