Can we apply sorting on Column values in Cross tab??

Can we apply sorting on Column values in Cross tab??
Following is the scenario with me.
I have 2 fields and one formula.
Fields are HostName and Username.
Formula is status which categorizes the Authorized and Unauthorized events.
And in the Summary Field, I am calculating the total number of events.
In cross tab, Fields are marking the Rows of the cross tab and Formula is making the Columns(Authorized and Unauthorized ) of the cross tab.
Since in cross tab data is grouped from left to right and sorted by default. I want to remove this default sorting and want to put sorting on the formula for Unauthorized events.
Is there any way to fulfill this requirement?

Hi,
You can assign a number to each Unauthorised field e.g
Rank   Unauthorised
1         A
2         BC
3         DF
5         TD
6         GF
Then add "Rank" to the crostab Columns before the Unauthorised field. Then you can control the sorting order on your crosstab.
Hope this helps

I am using crystal report 2013 version.
Kindly see the attached file

Hi Bharathiraja,
Instead of using a string field to display the month names, use a Date field as the column of the Crosstab.
You can then, highlight the column in the crosstab expert > Options > Options tab > check 'Customize group name field' > click the formula button beside 'formula' and use this code:
Totext({DATE field}, 'MMM yyyy')

How can I avoid the null values in cross tab?

How can I avoid the null values in cross tab?

Hello Anindita,
Let me explain you the problem in detail.
I have selected User and Program as rows in the cross tab. In Summarized Field I am counting the Programs.
In DB I can have both User and Program null.
Letu2019s take these scenarios...
1) For a User, Program can be null
2) For a Program, User can be null
3) And both can be null.
A null Program does not give problem since Cross tab does not count the null values and in my case too, it remove the Program which are null from the Cross tab because of the counting its doing on Program. Hence scenario 1 and 3 is not a Problem.
Problem comes in scenario 2 (For a Program, User can be null).
In this case since Program is not null it will get counted and will be grouped under null user but I donu2019t want to show the null user Grouping in my cross tab.
"Suppress empty rows" and "suppress empty colums" does not help.
Thanks & Regards,
Amrita

How to compare 2 columns in a cross tab

Hi,
I need some idea on how to compare 2 columns in a cross tab in Deski.
Original Table is like this:
Type..............ID...........Name
Type1............1............BO1
Type1............2............BO1
Type1............3............BO2
Type2............1............BO7
Type2............2............ --
Type2............3............BO5
I did Slice and dice to the original table and now it looks like a cross tab
......................1..............2............3
Type1.........BO1....... BO1.......BO2
Type2.........BO7........-- ...........BO5
Now I want to compare column 1&2, 1&3 and put these values in new columns after column 3 for Type1 & Type2
Does anyone has any idea on this?
Thanks,

1. Right click your table
2. Select Calculations -> Count
3. It will insert a new column. Edit this new column formula and substitute it with thos other formula:
=If ( <Name> Where (<ID>=1) = <Name> Where (<ID>=2) ) Then "Column 1 equal to column 2" Else "They're not Equal"
4.Put this title in that column's header:
Column 1 vs Column 2
5. Repeat steps for comparison between 1 and 3, just that this is the formula you have to use:
=If ( <Name> Where (<ID>=1) = <Name> Where (<ID>=3) ) Then "Column 2 equal to column 3" Else "They're not Equal"
Note: Apply necessary changes depending on what you need.

How to display Zero(0) values in cross tab format in Webi???

Hi All,
Is there a way to display the zero(0) or null values in cross tab format in
webi. I can able to display in Regular tabular format in Webi as u got an option
in Properties --> Display --> Show all rows/columns, but it is not working when
i am using Cross Tab format for the same data.
Regards
Ram

Hi Sunil,
Happy to see your solution. My requirement is that if you have a data like
SBU,                   Cadre,                Value
Chemical Buss,     Manger,                  45
Crop Buss,            Workmen,               63
Agri Buss,              Executive,              70
Chemical Buss,     Executive,              84
Agri Buss,              Workmen,              -
Crop Buss,                 -,                        -
So now we need to get the rows or columns that are having blank values. Say like if Crop Buss is not having any values so it wont be displayed, but actually it has to be displayed.

Filtering Key Figures/Columns in a Cross Tab Component

Hello All,
I am creating a P&L Statement for Better/Worse comparisions, and I have to show only three columns at a time based on User Drop Down Selections.
Here is my Bex Query Out put looks like. The Rows part is "Structure" and Columns are "Cell Restrictions".
Now, the CrossTab component has to show only Two columns at a time, based on user selections. Here is my desired output. User will Select either ' Avg' Rate or 'End Rate'. Based on that selction, Actual's will show in the First Column and based on Selection from Second DROPDOWN for Budget/Forecast/PY, the Second Column has to be displayed.
Is there any DropDown Component or CrossTab Component Options are there to Filter the Columns based on User Selections ?
Appreciate your help. This is the Crucial Chart for the whole Dashboard.
Thanks,
Sonti.

Hi Tammy,
Thanks for your quick reply.
Can it be done dynamically without the User touching it ? My Cross Tab has to show values based on the Selctions. But, I couldn't find the code to restrict Cross Tab data.
I have to code for Dropdown box --> On Select, to check / Un check the KF's in the Filter Panel Component. And in Filter Panel Comoponent, --> On Select, DATASOURCE.setFilterExt("KF1", "KF2").
And assign the data source to Cross Tab.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Regards,
Sonti.

Display two different column types in cross tab

I am using Cross Tab template in crystal XI and I have to show two different column types one is of type int and other is of type string. Below is the format of the report
                              AmountGiven             Amount Spent            Attended
Mike                       5000                              3000                         Yes
Steve                     200                                 200                           No
Is there a way I can do this showing "yes" or "no" in the third column???
Thanks...

Hi
If you are trying to show "yes" or "no" for a column value in a cross tab, then yes we can try using a formula for it.
I would suggest you 2 ways that you can try at your end:
1.
a) Create a formula in the cross tab expert and write your condition.
for eg: if Sum({Orders.Order amount}) > 5000 then "yes" else "no"
b) Then select that formula in the summarized fields in cross tab expert and change the summary to MODE.
c) You can see the "yes" and "no" Within the same box.
2.
a) Add a field to the colums in the cross tab expert.
b) A column gets inserted in the cross tab.
c) Right click the field and select format field.
d) Go to Common tab and write a formula for the display string.
e) Write the condition in that formula.
f) You can see a new column with the expected values.
Hope this helps you..
Please revert incase of any queries.

Add a Summary

How to create a title over the top of the left-most column in a cross-tab.

This is one of those things that seems simple until you try it.
I'm almost there. I moved the cross-tab from the report header to the report footer so I can have a page title. I tried using an overlay but it didn't work for any page past the first.
I can't seem to figure out how to put a title over the left-most column though.
Thanks in advance,
J

I have used a text box, after you type in the text, select the box, and move it to the front.
then select the crosstab and move it to the back.

Date Formatting in Charts and Dynamic column resizing in Cross tabs

Hi All,
I am new to Design Studio, so am in desperate need of your help on the following:
Is there a way we can change the date format in x axis in charts?
For ex: Am getting dates as mm/yyyyy from BW but requirement is to show in yy-Mon
Requirement is to display data in cross tab just below the charts. How can I make the column widths in the cross tab the same as x-axis divisions in the chart? Also, this will be dynamic as depending on filter selection x axis scaling in charts will vary.
In cross tab, can I hide the column header?
Would really appreciate any kind of help from you.
Thanks & Regards
Swasti

HI Swasti,
To answer your first question, in Design Studio it's what you see is what you get! so it shows the Data Labels as it is in the BEx output, if you have to modify this you have to change it in the Background.
There might be CSS workarounds, but I am not sure if that will satisfy your requirements.
You can fix the Column width, but it would be constant, aligning that to your X-axis would require a lot of Effort.
You cannot hide the Column header directly, but one workaround would be to use a white BG text component to overlay on the Crosstab.

Fazith Ali Z

Suppress values in Cross-Tab and Cross-Tab Chart if null

I am developing a cross-tab report that has no-values contributing to the summary in a number of cells. For instance, if I were to display the average value for the testing of particle-counts by the day of the month, and no testing was performed on a particular day, then I would hope that the cell would be blank and a plot of the cross-tab would just omit that data point. However, Crystal interprets this as a 0.00 instead of NULL, and the plot (incorrectly) includes the zero-datapoint.
I can suppress the datapoint in the cross-tab if it's zero, but that isn't correct either (as, sometimes, zero will be the correct answer). Even then, though, I cannot suppress the datapoint on the plot.
Anyone have experience with a workaround for this?
Thanks - Tim

BTW...I found that I can work-around the plotting issue if I convert the chart to a "Group" type (instead of cross-tab). It will then ignore the null-values. Still thinking about cross-tab displaying zero for a summary value when it is working with no data.
Suggestions?

Carry forward of variable value in cross-tab charts

Hi Experts,
I have a cross-tab which calculates the inventory of items (based on count). For a particular date range (quarterly here), if i have to generate the cross-tab, i set the inventory count to zero for the first quarter, and from the next quarter, i add to the inventory count, the new inventory items. At the end of each quarter this value gets accumulated and gets carried forward to the next quarter. From the next quarter, it just is the sum of count of the new items. Now, i have this cross-tab calculate the values at WhilePrintingRecords evaluation time.
When i have created a chart out of this cross-tab, the chart doesnt reflect the values that are observed in cross-tab.
Is there any way i can get these calculated values to get reflected on the chart?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Roshan.

Is it possible to calculate values in a cross-tab , for example , create a column3 = column1 + Column2 ?

Hi,
try to cerate a new calc :
nvl(status_cnt,0)
and create the totals on it,
I think you got nulls in that column so it wont aggregate properly.
